Hazy, Hot, 

and Humid! 

Or what we as South Floridians call it – August! 

While we slowly get used to the new rules, regulations, 

ordinances, and precautions in place for our 

safety – some of us (me! for example) may be in the 

need for a little selfcare and stress relief. Luckily, our 

All America Town is chock full of places to do just that! 

Now that salons and spas are open, there is no better 

time to try a new look, hair color, and style. Many spas are offering 

specials to help you relax, unwind, and escape reality for a few hours. Or 

maybe a combination beach, spa, salon staycation will give you the complete 

refresh that we all need! 

Delray Restaurant Month is back! August 1 – 31 you can dine at many 

restaurants, try new places, and most importantly support local business. 

They offer take-out options as well, with prix-fixe menus, and even a Restaurant 

Bingo contest! For details on this amazing experience read Delray 

Under $50. 

Our City Person this month is Maura Plante. This remarkable person 

has made it her mission to feed hungry people quality food. Her organization 

“Living Hungry” has grown to feed over 2,600 Delray families a week. 

A WEEK! And this is just one of her many accomplishments! 

Have you finished Netflix, Prime, Hulu, and every 

other On Demand network? You are not alone. Lisa Marie 

has selected a few of the most popular 

Summer blockbuster romance movies 

spanning 4 decades! So, pop some corn, 

pour some wine, and snuggle up with 

your favorite pet or person and get to watching 

these oldies but goodies. Oh, and 

keep the tissues close by! 

Sending Healing Love, 

Everything 

in the 

universe 

is within 

you. Ask 

all from 

yourself.

Chromebooks Donated for 

Students at Achievement 

Centers for Children & 

Families 

With the shift to distance learning in the first few weeks of 

the COVID-19 shutdown, a longtime Achievement Centers 

for Children & Families (ACCF) supporter saw the extensive need 

for access to laptops for under resourced children to be able to 

maintain their education during distance learning. 

This anonymous donor was able to partner with the Education 

Foundation of Palm Beach County to donate 55 Chromebooks 

to ACCF which will be distributed to students and 

families in each of the organization’s programs to help them 

with virtual learning through the summer and the upcoming 

school year. 

Each family will also receive training from an ACCF staff 

member on how to use their new device and get answers to any 

questions they may have to continue virtual distance learning 

during the school year.

The Spady Museum received additional 

funding stemming from the CARES Act: 

$7,500 from Florida Humanities Council

These awardees represent the diverse nature of arts organizations 

around the country. Overall funding is divided nearly evenly 

between small, medium, and large arts organizations. 

Arts and culture are a key component of the U.S. economy that 

contribute $877.8 billion, or 4.5 percent, to the nation’s gross domestic 

product in 2017 and employ over 5 million wage‐and‐salary 

workers who collectively earned $405 billion. This funding will 

help support those jobs and those nonprofit organizations during 

this time of great need so that arts and culture will persevere as a 

significant contributor to the American economy.

arc-Etienne Hoffmann, Mizner Country Club’s Food & Beverage 

Manager and Sommelier, told students from FSU who are 

part of the Club Management Association of America’s (CMAA) internship 

program that “wine service is nothing but a way to channel 

your passion.” 

Teaching CMAA’s online course, Wine Service 101 on June 29, 

one of Hoffmann’s key take-aways was to install the philosophy 

that, “Nobody is taking this class to get into the business of order 

taking. We are in the business of creating an experience.” 

Usually, the CMAA places students in country clubs as summer 

interns to gather needed credits to graduate. Given the present 

COVID-19 situation, CMAA decided to offer students online

locals only | delray under $50 

By Darien Davies 

Delray Under $50 

Most Fun Small Town, Most Crazy Small Town, Most Small Town that Feels 

Like a Big Town. Delray has it all. With a bustling downtown, Pineapple 

Grove area, and little nooks and crannies in between, there’s more 

to do in Delray now than ever, with events and happenings 

spanning from daytime to nighttime. While it can 

seem expensive at times, there’s a great 

opportunity to enjoy all the City has to offer 

without breaking the bank. Here’s what you can 

do in Delray Beach in August for $50 or less. 

Since we’re all still in the COVID mix of social distancing and 

staying at home as much as we can, it’s continuing to prove 

more and more necessary for some fresh air and exercise to 

keep our sanity. There’s only so much living room YouTube exercising 

and backyard family social time that one person can take, 

am I right? Good news is that August is Golf Month and the Delray 

Beach Golf Club is open and available for a little responsible fun 

in the sun. Regardless if you’re in the mood for some solo swings, 

want to bring the entire family out for some exercise and bonding 

time, or really need a friends-only social sesh, the grass is always 

greener on the golf course. While there are set COVID-19 guidelines 

in place, which include only one person per golf cart, no walk ups 

allowed, golfers should maximize social distancing, and more, golfers 

are still invited to have fun and enjoy their time on the course. 

Rates range from $12 to $29 and tee times are available daily. The 

Delray Beach Golf Club is located at 2200 Highland Ave. Visit www. 

delraybeachgolfclub.com or call (561) 243-7380 for more information 

and to book your tee time. 

Like it or not, this pandemic has forced us all to put on our kitchen 

aprons and make the majority, if not all, of our meals and 

snacks. While it can be great for those of us who really enjoy 

cutting, stirring, and chopping, it can be exhausting for those who 

prefer to leave the cooking to the professionals. Whatever your pleasure, 

August is Happiness Happens Month and is not only a perfect 

time to appreciate all that you have in life, but also do more of what 

makes you happy. So, if it’s avoiding the kitchen at all costs, you 

go ahead and do you! Thankfully Dine Out Downtown 

Delray Restaurant Week has been transformed 

into Dine Out Downtown Delray Beach Restaurant 

Month and takes place the entire 

month of August. Participating restaurants 

will now be offering prix 

fixe menus, brunch, happy hour 

deals and a variety of culinary 

events aimed at getting you out of 

your kitchen and into theirs. Make 

reservations at some of your local spots, including Johnnie Brown’s, 

Brule Bistro, Elisabetta’s, Caffe Luna Rosa, Rose’s Daughter, Ramen 

Lab Eatery, Proper Ice Cream, and more, and enjoy a meal with zero 

effort required on your part. Not only will you be happier not having 

to deal with a dirty kitchen, but you will also be supporting your local 

restaurants that could use all the business we can give them right 

now! Call (561) 243-1077 or visit www.downtowndelraybeach.com 

for a complete list of restaurants.

Slippery, salty, and oh-so savory, oysters are the ultimate 

indulgence in mollusk mania. If it has been a while since 

you braved a plate of oysters, or haven’t tried these little 

ocean gems before, you’re in luck because Wednesday, August 

5 is National Oyster Day. For a one stop shop to enjoy all the 

best oysters in town, head to the one and only City Oyster & Sushi 

Bar and napkin up because it’s about to go down in Oyster 

Town. They serve oysters by the dozen and offer a daily selection 

of the freshest oysters they can get, which might include 

Blue Point, Navy Point, Blue Island, Cotuit, Umami, and more, 

so get ready to get raw. Not only are oysters a delicacy, they’re 

also rich in protein, healthy fats, Vitamin B12, zinc, copper, selenium 

and Vitamin D. They are delicious and nutritious, and 

perfect for sharing with your special someone or polishing off 

the entire plate yourself. City Oyster is located at 213 E. Atlantic 

Ave. and is open nightly for dine in, takeout and delivery. Visit 

www.cityoysterdelray.com or call (561) 272-0220 for more information 

and specific oysters of the day. 

In addition to the robust dining, entertainment, and nightlife 

scene that Delray is famous for, there’s also another amazing 

aspect that makes this city so unique: our art scene! 

August is American Artists Appreciation Month and is the perfect 

reason to show your local artists some love. While we can’t 

peruse the downtown art scene like we all want to (at our leisure 

with a never-ending glass of champagne in our hands), the 

good people at the Arts Warehouse created virtual events that 

still give the impression of being fully enveloped in the artistic 

experience, just now from the comfort of wherever you have 

Wi-Fi. Not only do they offer studio info sessions with Amanda 

Perna, and intro to creativity workshops with Joan Miró, you 

can also enjoy their Virtual First Friday Art Walk series on their 

social media accounts where they highlight some of their local 

artists’ work. While this isn’t the ideal art enjoyment situation, 

it’s still not only an important way to show our local artists 

some love, but also gives us an opportunity to unglue our eyes 

from the TV reruns and treat our mind to something of greater 

interest. You can find more information about the Virtual Art 

Walk on www.downtowndelraybeach.com, by calling (561) 

243-1077, or check out the Arts Warehouse Facebook page for 

their August calendar of events. 

What is the best day to enjoy a crisp beer? Every day 

and/or any day, duh. Since many local breweries 

have limited hours and going to the grocery store is 

the lamest idea of the century, just head to one place for all your 

beer needs. In honor of India Pale Ale Beer day on Thursday, 

August 6, you are encouraged to head to Hopportunities and 

pick out a six-pack that fancies your IPA needs. See if you like 

the Can You See It from Miami, the Oh-J from Maine, the Trial 

by Wombat or Burning Money or Bliss from New York, the Elevated 

Perspective from Wisconsin, the Sunnyside from Florida, 

and the list goes on and on and on. So even though you can’t 

tap that IPA at your local restaurants and bars, you can pick up 

a six-pack (or seven) and host a driveway socially distanced 

IPA extravaganza for you and your thirsty beer-migos. Cheers 

to this wonderful solution, and three cheers to finding your 

hoppy place. Hopportunities is located at 440 N.E. Fifth Ave. 

Visit www.findyourhoppyplace.com or call (561) 203-5375 for 

more information and a complete list of their beers on tap.

Broward, Palm Beaches and St. Lucie Realtors 

Organize Beach Clean Up in Boynton Beach

VolunTEERS FROM BROWARD, Palm BEACHES And St. Lucie REALTORS 

recently PICKED UP TRASH FROM THE BEACH In Delray BEACH 

The South Palm Beach Board of 

Directors of the Broward, Palm 

Beaches and St. Lucie Realtors 

recently organized a beach clean up 

in Boynton Beach at the Ocean Ridge 

Hammock Park volunteering as part of 

the Florida Realtors Clean Up Florida 

Waters Week. More than 20 volunteers 

helped remove trash, microplastics, 

iron debris and recyclables off the 

beach. 

According to Christel Silver, owner 

of Silver International Realty in Delray 

Beach, Florida, and a member of the 

Board, “The beaches are some of our 

earth’s prized possessions. We should 

all do our part to take care of them. One 

of the ways we can do that is by organizing 

beach cleanups. Across Florida, 

volunteers are transforming their communities, 

improving the environment, 

and creating beauty in their hometowns. 

Our organization wanted to find 

a way to give back to the community so 

we organized a beach clean up.” 

From plastic bottles to discarded 

cigarette butts, experts estimate there 

are roughly seven billion tons of debris 

thrown onto beaches around the world 

every year. This isn’t just making the 

beaches look unseemly, it also has a significant 

impact on the environment and 

the health of our oceans. 

The volunteers expressed the more 

personal reasons to get involved in a 

beach clean up. They felt that it was a 

great excuse to get outside and go to 

the beach. It makes for a memorable 

experience every time, even when they 

are putting in hard work trying to make 

sure the beach stays free of litter. What’s 

more, they have an opportunity to meet 

like-minded individuals who also hold 

the beach in high regard.

Now that we are firmly ensconced in summer, and we 

all know that the sun and sea can bring love…it seems 

only fitting that we take a look back at some of the 

sizzling hot romantic movies to have hit our big screen… 

► A Star is Born – 2018 

Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga fuse their considerable talents 

to depict the raw and passionate tale of Jack and Ally, two artistic 

souls coming together, on stage and in life. Theirs is a complex 

journey through the beauty and the heartbreak of a relationship 

struggling to survive. In this new take on the iconic love story, fourtime 

Oscar nominee Cooper makes his directorial debut, and stars 

alongside multiple award-winning, Oscar-nominated music superstar 

Gaga in her first leading role in a major motion picture. Cooper 

portrays seasoned musician Jackson Maine, who discovers and falls 

in love with struggling artist Ally. She has given up on her dream to 

become a successful singer, until she meets Jack, who immediately 

sees her natural talent. 

► Beauty & the Beast – 2017 

Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast” is a live-action re-telling of the 

studio’s animated classic which refashions the classic characters 

from the tale as old as time for a contemporary audience, staying 

true to the original music while updating the score with several 

new songs. It is the fantastic journey of Belle (Emma Watson), a 

bright, beautiful and independent young woman who is taken prisoner 

by the beast (Dan Stevens) in his castle. Despite her fears, she 


befriends the castle’s enchanted 

staff and learns to look beyond the 

Beast’s hideous exterior and realize 

the kind heart and soul of the true 

Prince within. Also stars Luke Evans 

as Gaston, Kevin Kline as Maurice, 

Josh Gad as Lefou, Ewan McGregor 

as Lumiere, the candelabra; Stanley 

Tucci as Maestro Cadenza, the 

harpsichord; Ian McKellen as Cogsworth, 

the mantel clock; and Emma 

Thompson as the teapot, Mrs. Potts.

► Friends with Benefits – 2011 

Jamie (Mila Kunis) is a New York-based executive recruiter who 

entices Dylan (Justin Timberlake), an art director from Los Angeles, 

to take a job at the New York office of GQ magazine. Finding that 

they have much in common, the two become fast friends. Feeling 

jaded by a number of broken romances, Dylan and Jamie decide 

that they are ready to quit looking for true love and focus on having 

fun. However, complications unfold when the two best pals add sex 

to their relationship.

► Dear John – 2010 

“Dear John” tells story of John Tyree (Channing Tatum), a young 

soldier home on leave, and Savannah Curtis (Amanda Seyfried), the 

idealistic college student he falls in love with during her spring vacation. 

Over the next seven tumultuous years, the couple is separated 

by John’s increasingly dangerous deployments. While meeting 

only sporadically, they stay in touch by sending a continuous 

stream of love letters overseas - correspondence that eventually 

triggers fateful consequences. 

► Mamma Mia – 2008 

Longing to discover the 

identity of her true father before 

she exchanges her wedding 

vows with Sky (Dominic 

Cooper), the daughter 

of a once-rebellious single 

mother secretly invites a 

trio of paternal candidates 

to her upcoming wedding. 

Her mother Donna (Meryl 

Streep) has always done her 

best to raise her spirited 

daughter, Sophie (Amanda 

Seyfried), while simultaneously 

running a successful 

hotel on a small Greek island. Attending the wedding are Donna’s 

lifelong friends Rosie (Julie Walters) and Tanya (Christine Baranski). 

Plus, Sophie has invited three special guests of her own. Sam 

(Pierce Brosnan), Harry (Colin Firth) and Bill (Stellan Skarsgård). 

► Sweet Home Alabama – 2002 

New York fashion designer 

Melanie Carmichael (Reese Witherspoon) 

suddenly finds herself 

engaged to the city’s most eligible 

bachelor, Andrew (Patrick 

Dempsey). But Melanie’s past holds 

many secrets, including Jake (Josh 

Lucas), the redneck husband she 

married in high school, who refuses 

to divorce her. Bound and determined 

to end their contentious relationship 

once and for all, Melanie 

sneaks back home to Alabama to confront her past, only to discover 

that you can take the girl out of the South, but you can never take 

the South out of the girl. 

► The Notebook – 2004 

Directed by Nick Cassavetes, this adaptation of author Nicholas 

Sparks’ bestselling novel revolves around Noah Calhoun’s (James 

Garner) regular visits to a female patron (Gena Rowlands) of an 

area nursing home. Rather than bore her with the inanities of everyday 

life, Calhoun reads from an old, faded notebook containing 

the sweeping account of a young couple (Ryan Gosling and Rachel 

McAdams) whose love affair was tragically put to a halt after their 

separation in the midst of World War II. Seven years later, the 

couple was reunited, and, despite having taken radically different 

paths, they found themselves unable to resist the call of a second 

chance. “The Notebook” also features Joan Allen, Sam Shepard, and 

Kevin Connolly.

► Titanic – 1997 

This spectacular epic re-creates the ill-fated maiden voyage of 

the White Star R.M.S. Titanic and the tragic sea disaster of April 

15, 1912. The contemporary storyline involves American treasureseeker 

Brock Lovett (Bill Paxton) retrieving artifacts from the submerged 

ship. Lovett looks for diamonds but finds a drawing of a 

young woman, nude except for a necklace. When 102-year-old Rose 

(Gloria Stuart) reveals she is the person in the portrait, she is summoned 

to the wreckage site to tell her story. The scene then shifts to 

1912 Southampton where passengers boarding the Titanic include 

penniless Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio) and society girl Rose 

DeWitt Bukater (Kate Winslet), returning to Philadelphia with her 

wealthy fiancé Cal Hockley (Billy Zane). Rose explains the whole

voyage April 15th, 1912 at 2:20 in the morning. 

► Groundhog Day – 1993 

Bill Murray plays Phil, a TV 

weatherman working for a local 

station in Pennsylvania. Phil displays 

a charm and wit on camera 

that evaporates the moment the 

red light goes off; he is bitter, 

appallingly self-centered, and 

treats his co-workers with contempt, 

especially his producer 

Rita (Andie MacDowell) and 

cameraman Larry (Chris Elliot). 

He is reluctantly sent to cover a 

story about a weather forecasting 

“rat” (as he calls it). This 

is his fourth year on the story, and he makes no effort to hide his 

frustration. On awaking the ‘following’ day he discovers that it is 

Groundhog Day again, and again, and again. First, he uses this to his 

advantage, then comes the realization that he is doomed to spend 

the rest of eternity in the same place. He realizes that he’s falling in 

love with Rita and therefore wants to be someone that she could 

love in return. 


► Pretty Woman – 1990 

While on a business trip in L.A., 

Edward (Richard Gere), a rich and 

sophisticated businessman who 

makes a living buying and breaking 

up companies, picks up a hooker, 

Vivian (Julia Roberts) on a lark. Vivian 

is a Los Angeles prostitute struggling 

with her lifestyle and a need to 

pay the rent. On a business trip to Los 

Angeles, Edward hires Vivian to be 

his girlfriend for a week while he traverses 

the local social circles. Love and 

various social complications invade 

their tidy arrangement and have the 

pair wondering if this Cinderellastory 

could have a happy ending. 

► Ghost – 1990 

Sam Wheat (Patrick Swayze) is a 

banker, Molly Jensen (Demi Moore) 

is an artist, and the two are madly 

in love. However, when Sam is murdered 

by friend and corrupt business 

partner Carl Bruner (Tony Goldwyn) 

over a shady business deal, he is left 

to roam the earth as a powerless 

spirit. When he learns of Carl’s betrayal, 

Sam must seek the help of psychic 

Oda Mae Brown (Whoopi Goldberg) 

to set things right and protect Molly from Carl and his goons. 

► Cocktail – 1988 

Brian Flanagan (Tom Cruise) wants a high-paying marketing job 

but needs a business degree first. Working as a bartender to pay for 

college, Flanagan is mentored by his veteran boss, Doug Coughlin 

(Bryan Brown). Together, their showy tricks and charisma command 

large crowds and tip payments - until Flanagan and the cynical 

Coughlin have a falling out. Flanagan moves to Jamaica to raise 

enough money to open his own bar, where he falls in love with artist 

Jordan Mooney (Elisabeth Shue). 

COPYRIGHTED 

► Grease – 1978 

1950s teens Danny (John Travolta) and Australian transfer Sandy 

(Olivia Newton-John) spend their “Summer Nights” falling in love, 

but once Fall comes, it’s back to Rydell High and its cliques. As one 

of the bad-boy T-Birds, Danny must act cool for best pal Kenickie 

(Jeff Conaway) and their leather-clad mates Sonny (Michael Tucci) 

and Doody (Barry Pearl). Despite befriending Frenchy (Didi Conn), 

one of the rebel Pink Ladies, virginal Sandy is “too pure to be Pink,” 

as the Ladies’ leader, Rizzo (Stockard Channing), acidly observes. 

Declaring their devotion in such ballads as “Hopelessly Devoted to 

You” and “Sandy,” Sandy and Danny split, reconcile, and split again 

amidst a pep rally, dances, drive-ins, and a drag race, before deciding 

“You’re the One That I Want” at the climactic carnival.

reputation—and she makes me feel

the last thing I can afford, but Carmen isn’t an

Masking the Symptoms 

The world we live in today is full of misleading information. 

It’s not out of the ordinary for people to talk about their pain 

when they find out that I’m a chiropractor. It is often the go to 

topic of conversation, and I don’t mind talking about it at all. 

I 

use these conversations as a point to educate them not just 

on their pain, but often why they are having pain. It is also 

not out of the ordinary for them to speak on the multitude of 

topical creams, treatments, and doctors that they have tried with 

no results. There is a clear delineation between symptoms and 

causes of symptoms. Our healthcare system has been an integral 

part in teaching us to use pain as a determining factor in when 

we are better. The truth is pain is the last symptom to show up 

and the first to go away. There has been long standing dysfunction 

and compensation that has led to a point that now there is pain 

in that region and want it fixed. An example I use is a root canal. 

The procedure of a root canal is done to save a tooth that has long 

standing decay and is eliciting sometimes unbearable pain. The 

fix to the problem is the root canal, the actual fix would have been 

to take care of your mouth, brush your teeth, floss and see your 

dentist regularly. 

As any good clinician should, we use pain as a subjective marker 

to gauge the patient’s thoughts on their progress; however, this 

should always be accompanied by objective measures that show 

verifiable outcomes reflecting improvement. Those can be done 

with range of motion, orthopedic testing, functional movement 

evaluations, reflexes and other neurological tests that can be documented. 

These tests give a baseline of how the patient is functioning 

overall and are monitored through treatment. We do this solely 

because pain is subjective, meaning a 10 for me might be a 5 for 

you. That is why when we do our thorough examinations, we use 

the pain and symptoms that are present as a road map to get to the 

original source and cause of dysfunction. Let us use sciatica as the 

topic for the remainder of the article. Sciatica, by definition, is just 

inflammation of the sciatic nerve. It is not a definitive diagnosis; it 

is an early symptom. Sciatica takes many forms, radiating pain into 

the glutes, down the hamstrings, into the calf, and sometimes into 

the foot. Here, as clinicians we need to delineate what is causing 

this problem. Is it a disc issue, a zygapophyseal joint, a facet capsule 

issue, a stenosis issue, a muscle imbalance issue, or is it from major 

trauma or pathology? All of these possibilities have their own 

treatments and their own patterns that a trained clinician should 

be able to detect. There is no blanket treatment, no amount of over 

the counter medications, topical creams, stretches or massages 

that can be used to fix the actual problem, not just mask the symptoms. 

Fixing the problem takes time, repetition, strengthening, and 

reconditioning your body to function as it was designed. The cause 

of these symptoms should be dealt with an active plan. Stop masking 

symptoms and get to a clinician that can help determine what is 

going on and has a concrete plan on getting back to living without 

pain and symptoms.

COVID-19 

Masks and “Maskne” 

Face coverings and masks are now a way of life and essential to 

helping decrease the spread of COVID-19. Mask usage has allowed 

certain skin conditions to emerge and now dermatologists are treating 

all kinds of facial dermatitis, the most common being called “maskne.” 

This new term was coined to describe the clogged pores and 

acne like lesions that occur around one’s nose, mouth, chin, 

and ears from consistently wearing a mask. The actual scientific 

term is acne mechanica which refers to a type of acne due 

to constant contact or pressure on the skin. Masks clog pores by 

trapping in sweat, humidity, and oil throughout the day. As we continuously 

breathe warm moist air into the mask, a perfect environment 

for acne causing bacteria to flourish develops. Masks may also 

cause contact irritation, dermatitis, eczema, bacterial and fungal 

infections. 

Getting rid of masks, unfortunately, is not option for now, but 

there are some easy and effective ways to fight “maskne” and mask 

related rashes! 

1. Wash yOUR FACE 

Using a cleanser with acne fighting ingredients such as benzoyl 

peroxide or salicyclic acid can be beneficial in helping to kill the 

bacteria that cause acne. If you have a sensitive skin type, choose a 

cleanser with natural botanical ingredients, such as rose hip – that 

can leave your skin refreshed without irritation. 

2. Use an exfoliant 

Exfoliating your skin with topical products or by using office delivered 

micro-dermabrasion, can be effective ways of removing the 

dead skin cells that build up on the skin surface and lead to the 

clogging of pores and oil build up underneath our facial coverings. 

3. Apply less makeup 

Using less foundation and powders, especially around the mouth 

and nose, can help dramatically reduce the amount of oil and congestion 

that builds up in our pores while wearing a mask all day. 

4. Use a clean mask 

Avoid repeatedly wearing the same mask over and over again because 

it could be harboring bacteria and contributing to your acne. 

Use disposable masks daily or wash reusable masks to ensure your 

skin is only touching clean material. 


COPYRIGHTED 

5. Use an oil free moisturizer 

Applying a lightweight oil free moisturizer can help sooth dry 

irritated skin but also provides a barrier for the skin to protect it 

from acne causing bacteria. 

Wearing masks is an adjustment that our society and our skin 

need to adapt to. Most of these steps are pretty simple and making 

small changes can make a big difference in the health of the skin 

behind the mask.

Surgery No, Transformation YES! 

Thinking about the latest and greatest procedure to change the 

shape of your body? Well I’m here to help you question your 

decision before you put down that credit card. And I am not 

talking about updating the boobies for a perkier look (I’d be the 

first to tell you to go for that!), I’m talking about liposuction, fat 

transfers, booty implants, etc. - all the procedures that promise 

a brand new you, and give you the look you always wanted. 

You know, those advertisements that just seem too good to be 

true. Sure, a shortcut may be appealing and ideal to many… 

but let us consider a few points before opting for surgery. 

And don’t get me wrong, I’m not against all surgeries – there are 

some people that have tried everything (correctly) and still need a 

little extra help. However, I am weary against unnecessary procedures 

and here’s why: 

1. Regret 

So many clients regret their surgery. After it’s done 

there is no going back. But even worse is when a 

client does go back in to get something fixed and 

the result looks no better than before. While considering 

surgery ask yourself, “Is this my last resort? 

Have I tried everything else humanly possible? 

Would I really 

need lipo if I just 

cleaned up my 

diet? Do I really 

need booty implants, 

if I did all 

the right exercises, 

even if it took 2-3 years?” 

2. Longevity of results 

Sure, you might look like a hot tamale for 

a while but without the foundation of a healthy 

lifestyle, the results will not last. I’ve had clients tell 

me that they got lipo and literally gained it all back! 

Imagine spending all that time, money, and risks 

only to gain it all back. I never understood how 

one could think that they can just continue eating 

junk and that the fat would never come back. If 

you learn how to eat and exercise correctly, those 

are the type of results that will last. It may not 

be the quick fix you were hoping for but I can 

promise you will really appreciate the results 

once you get there. 

3. The bad fat 

Plastic surgery does not get rid of the dangerous visceral fat that 

sticks around the organs. This type of fat can lead to heart disease, 

diabetes and obesity. So if you think that after going under the 

knife you’re going to become a “healthier” version of yourself, 

think again. Everything leads back to diet and exercise. 

No quick fix, but one that will help you live healthier, 

stronger, and longer. 

4. Undesired results 

This kind of goes along with the regret 

I mentioned above but I can honestly say 

the majority of my clients that had various 

procedures are truly unhappy with the 

outcome for one reason or another. Dimpled 

bellies, drooping derriere implants, 

infected areas, boxy shapes…the list goes 

on. The results that most people desire 

can be attainable through eating clean 

and the right exercises. You may never have 

a booty like Kim Kardashian, but do you really 

want one? If the answer is “yes,” then, do 

what makes you happy – just know the risks 

involved, and have realistic expectations. 

I hope this article has made you consider 

proper diet and exercise to reach realistic 

goals with no unnecessary risks, 

or surgical recovery with unpredictable 

results. Many times, commitment to a 

healthier diet and lifestyle is all anyone 

needs to get into the best physical 

shape of their life!

Ladies Boutique 

Welcomes Back Guests 

By nicol jenkins | photos by melissa korman 

Hy Pa-Hy Ma is open for business 

and excited to welcome their 

guests back to the boutique. 

Wanda is exercising safe distancing helping customers 

The ladies fashion boutique is located in Delray Beach at the 

Waterway East Plaza on Atlantic Avenue. The store has been 

in business for 42 years in the same location. 

“We are back in business and excited to see our guests,” said 

Nance Bernet, owner of Hy Pa-Hy Ma. “We are fully open and enjoy 

seeing our longtime customers and welcoming new customers!” 

The local boutique has implemented all the necessary safety protocols 

during this time to ensure their customers’ wellbeing. They 

have masks available for customers, and their employees always 

wear masks. They offer hand sanitizer to all their guests as well. 

Their staff assists guests in person or virtually. Call by phone, they 

ship, and they can accommodate their customers’ needs. They also 

offer curbside drop off at their many parking spots available in 

front or in the back of the store. 

Hy Pa-Hy Ma offers exceptional and elegant fashions, and beautiful 

merchandise for any occasion, both chic, comfortable, dressy 

and casual. There are hot summer sales going on now! They have 

many summer dresses, pants, tops, hats, jewelry and accessories 


perfect for outdoor dining and a stroll along the beach. They carry 

high-quality brands such as Frank Lyman and Joseph Ribkoff. 

The owner wants to provide her guests with a sense of normalcy 

during these times. “Shopping at Hy Pa-Hy Ma gives people a renewed 

feeling of normalcy in their lives. When guests buy a new 

outfit or accessory, they will have a feeling of pleasure,” said Nance. 

The Delray Beach boutique offers a sophisticated look for people 

who really care about fashion and style. They accommodate for 

shoppers who like to look a little more comfortable as well as offering 

a fitted look. 

Hy Pa-Hy Ma was one of a few women’s clothing stores in the 

town of Delray Beach in 1978. “There was virtually nothing around 

this area at the time. There was a gift shop, hotel and restaurant 

down the street, but there really wasn’t any shopping,” said the 

owner. “I wanted to open an eclectic shop. We started out collecting 

paintings, and selling antiques, chocolates and shipping oranges.” 

Her store quickly expanded to offering ladies dresses, clothing 

for women and men, accessories, children’s clothes and pajamas, 

and was the first to sell kimonos from China. 

“Over the years, women kept coming in and shopping for clothes 

for themselves to wear to a social event or special occasion, and 

we focused on becoming a ladies clothing boutique. Women are 

powerful and they are shoppers; Hy Pa-Hy Ma evolved into this 

very nice upscale boutique. Now we offer a variety of sophisticated 

styles catering to the customers’ preferences,” she said.

New summer stock is a special attraction for our customers 

Treat yourself to something new. It will make you happy 

That was the evolution of the upscale ladies fashion boutique, 

Hy Pa-Hy Ma. Many years later, the store is still at the same convenient 

location at the Waterway East Plaza on Atlantic Avenue, 

offering the highest quality of sophisticated women’s clothing, 

purses, and jewelry for everyday wear. 

“We cater to the woman who wants an outfit that is flattering, 

sophisticated, and clothing that will take her from day to night. 

We try to keep our prices of the clothing moderate for our customers,” 

said Nance. “We accommodate everything from casual 

and sophisticated day wear, lots of separates, jackets, skirts and 

pants, cocktail attire, and everything in between.” 

Longtime customers praise the owner and staff at Hy Pa-Hy 

Ma and are happy to return to the boutique! “Wonderful boutique 

that has interesting unique clothing you won’t see anywhere 

else. This store is in its 42nd year and is owned by a local 

Delray family. They aim to please and have terrific handbags 

and fun costume jewelry that will make you swoon. So happy 

they’re in the neighborhood!” said a happy customer. 

Stop by Hy Pa-Hy Ma and you will be sure to enjoy a unique 

shopping experience!

Delray Beach is 

Back to Beauty! 

By nicol jenkins | photos by melissa korman 

One Aveda Salon Delray Beach is 

welcoming its customers back for 

a day of relaxation and beauty. 

The full-service hair salon is open for hair color, cuts, hair 

styling, hair extensions, and guests can also shop for hair 

products. Being in business for over 20 years, One Aveda Salon 

Delray Beach continues its tradition of catering to their guests’ 

beauty needs, while at the same time, safety remains a top priority 

at the salon. 

Out of an abundance of caution for their staff, guests, and community, 

they have made internal changes to their salon procedures. 

All styling stations are equipped with hand sanitizer. All guests and 

staff members’ temperatures will be checked to ensure it is below 

100.4 degrees. All guests and staff are required to wear masks at 

all times. Guests will be seated at every other station and 6 feet 

apart in the lounge. In addition, staff is continually sanitizing the 

salon throughout the day. Each and every chair is sanitized after 

every use. Every piece of equipment is sanitized after every service 

including clips, shears, color brushes and applicators, hairbrushes, 

combs, blow dryers and clippers. These are just some of the safety 

precautions that the salon has implemented during this time.

“Our hair salons offer a spa atmosphere. We are still providing 

the Aveda rituals at our salon including extending our shampoos 

for scalp massage to be part of that spa experience,” said Ariel Jarvis, 

Salon Manager at One Aveda Salon Delray Beach. 

Besides the salon experience, One Aveda also offers a family atmosphere. 

Ariel owns the hair salon with her mom Sue Anger, who 

is also a master and educator stylist. Ariel’s husband Tommy is a 

master hair stylist with a focus on men’s haircuts. Their three stylists, 

Tyra, Anna and Melanie, specialize in Balayage and their two 

other stylists Priscella and Beth focus on blonde highlights. Hair 

stylist Christa also focuses on men’s cuts. 

“We are truly a family owned salon and our team of stylists are a 

family. Our stylists have been with us for many years and they are 

able to do everything from color to blow-dry and cuts,” said Ariel. 

The local salon is a Concept Aveda Salon. Being a Concept Salon 

means they only use and carry Aveda hair care products, Aveda skin 

and body care products, color and styling tools and Aveda makeup. 

Aveda Heat Relief Thermal Protector & Conditioning Mist lets 

hair face the heat with the help from nature. 97% naturally derived* 

thermal dry spray weightlessly protects all hair types from 

heat up to 450 degrees during restyling, instantly conditions and 

infuses hair with calming Shampure aroma, and it’s Vegan. Aveda

Sue & Ariel welcoming guests into the salon 

with naturally derived styling polymers that help tame frizz for 

up to 72 hours– even in intense humidity. Suitable for slightly 

wavy to very tight coily hair textures. 97% naturally derived. 

They also offer VoMor hair extensions, and they are excited to 

unveil VoMor lash extensions later this year. 

“AVEDA is all about making sure all our products will be 

economically friendly and made of recyclable ingredients and 

natural sourced,” added Ariel. 

Guests praise the salon for providing a safe and relaxing atmosphere. 

“My first venture out of the house post quarantine was my 

hair appointment at Aveda! I was not disappointed. As usual 

Tyra was very friendly and professional. Because of the safety 

protocols taken, I felt very safe and therefore very relaxed. 

Freedom at last and the great hair color and cut was frosting on 

the freedom cake. We all love a little cake! I feel and look like a 

new person. Thank you, Delray Aveda. Thank you, Tyra. See you 

soon! Make an appointment you won’t be disappointed!” 

“I’ve been going to One Aveda now for over a year, maybe 

close to two. The atmosphere is very relaxing, the salon is impeccably 

clean, and the staff is always professional and welcoming. 

They also have the most comfortable sinks of any salon 

I’ve been to and the spa like massaging shampoos are an added 

bonus. Melanie is my stylist. She is talented, thoughtful and patient 

and most importantly listens to what I want. I highly recommend 

One Aveda and Melanie,” said a happy customer. 

“Staff was very professional when entering for my appointment, 

passed COVID-19 protocol. Tommy, my stylist, was very 

knowledgeable and discussed my hair cut needs and wants. All 

went well for my first time coming here. I will definitely recommend 

to my friends and I will be coming back for more services,” 

said another satisfied guest. 

One Aveda assures their guests that they are continuing all 

the safety protocols and want to welcome their long-time and 

new guests to enjoy a relaxing salon experience.

Building Homes and 

Recreating Greatness On Land 

By diane feen | photos by Shelby Halberg 

To whom much is given much is 

expected. Chuck Halberg knows 

this philosophical truth. 

That’s why he has spent so much of his time giving back to communities 

and non-profits that need his expertise and passion. 

It’s a reciprocal “feel good” transaction. “I have a passion 

for providing quality attainable housing for first time home buyers 

and the underserved population,” said Chuck, who started his 

company in 2006. 

Chuck started Stuart & Shelby the old fashioned way – hard work 

and dedication. He worked for Holtzman & Silverman Construction 

in Michigan and was transferred to Florida in 1980. He was 

also a construction manager for Arvida Homes and became VP of 

construction for the Holiday Organization (a large builder in Long 


Island). For Holiday he developed and built seven communities in 

Palm Beach County with over 750 units. 

In 2006 Chuck started Stuart & Shelby (named after his two 

sons). “Our dedication and commitment to clients and their projects 

is backed by an excellent record of on-time and on-budget 

completion. Our loyalty to them does not end when their project is 

complete, it continues into the future.” 

As owner and founder of Stuart & Shelby Development in Delray, 

Chuck is in a position to bid on projects that benefit underserved 

communities. 

“We recently completed a 14-unit townhouse development in 

Lake Worth that benefits Adopt-A- Family homeless families. There 

is also a community building included in the project that will be 

used for educational and support services,” said Chuck. 

Stuart & Shelby Development grew exponentially from a small 

company with four employees to one of substantial standing in the 

community with 12 employees. They get referrals from former clients 

to renovate homes and condos and build new custom homes. 

They work with people from all walks of life, even a few celebrities. 

Honesty and consistency have catapulted them to become a goto 

builder for non-profits, city projects and private homes. They go 

the extra mile to make sure clients are satisfied, and their needs are 

met (and often exceeded). 

COPYRIGHTED

Currently Stuart & Shelby has over 20 projects on the books. “We 

are actively pursuing numerous other projects. These include large 

custom homes, market rate and attainable housing projects and 

condo renovations. We recently teamed up with East to West Development 

Corporation, a not-for-profit in California, and are looking 

to provide affordable housing in South Florida (up into Ft. Pierce).” 

Stuart & Shelby is also working on attainable housing for the Delray 

Beach Community Land Trust in the SW/NW neighborhood of 

Delray. They have completed construction of over 20 houses and 

will be building 10 units at Corey Isles beginning in August 2020. 

These homes are a godsend for those in need of affordable housing. 

Chuck knows the importance of affordable housing and is 

working with two private developers to provide additional workforce 

housing in the area. 

His loyalty is also to projects that benefit communities. “Chuck’s 

generosity in our community is inspirational. He and Pam believe 

in giving back, and Arts Garage benefits tremendously from his vision 

and passion for the arts and impact they have on community. 

Our new build-out (completed in 2019) includes offices and classrooms 

and has changed the face of Arts Garage. It took us to the 

next level,” said Marjorie Waldo, executive director of Arts Garage. 

It is Chuck’s giving nature that has been recognized by others in 

the community. He was Business Person of the Year (2010-2011) 

and Stuart & Shelby was Business of the year (2013-2014) by the 

Delray Chamber of Commerce. Chuck also won the Ken Ellingsworth 

Community Service Award three times. 

The Delray resident (who recently downsized to fit into downtown 

Delray) has also been in the forefront of organizations that 

help non-profits and the needy. He is Chairman of the Arts Garage, 

co-founder of Impact 100 for Men as well as the Delray Beach Initiative. 

Both organizations provide funding for children in need. 

“I am involved in numerous not-for-profits and am a big supporter 

of the Delray Beach Police and Fire. Two of my favorite events 

are the Annual Police Awards Banquet and Thanksgiving Day Dinner. 

We procure and deliver food to all six fire stations in Delray.” 

To know Chuck is to know his other half, Pam Halberg. After a 

23-year career in accounting at an agricultural farm, she switched 

careers and went into real estate. She not only works at Stuart & 

Shelby but is a realtor at Signature International Premier Properties. 

Pam is in the Million Dollar Guild and received the Certified 

Luxury Home Marketing Specialist designation, along with Accredited 

Buyers Representative. 

Their son, Shelby Halberg is also part of the Stuart & Shelby 

landscape. He is a documentary filmmaker, photographer and a licensed 

drone pilot who takes pictures of Stuart & Shelby’s projects 

as well as other clients. 

Chuck is adamant that Stuart & Shelby strives to satisfy their clients. 

And the testimonials on their website prove this theory. Ted 

and Rosalie Ackerman hired them to add a second story to their 

home. The results surpassed their expectations. 

“We want to thank you and your fantastic staff for all the marvelous 

work you did on rebuilding our home and adding our second 

story. We knew when we met you that you were the only one to 

complete this job for us. Stuart & Shelby did an outstanding job and 

tackled every problem you faced with extreme confidence. Over our 

lifetime, we have had three other major construction ventures completed 

in our former NY home. None of the work compared to yours.”

Maura Plante 

COPYRIGHTED 

In a crisis 

like this it 

allows us to 

rise up and 

love on each 

other and 

take care of 

each other 


egulars | city people

Winning The Hunger Games 

Don’t ask Maura Plante a question and expect a short 

answer. The Lincoln, Rhode Island native is tall in stature 

and has an intellectual repertoire that is massive in scope. 

As someone who was told as a child that she could accomplish anything, 

Plante is fearless. She’s been like that since childhood - and 

the rest is history – a long and layered history of scaling heights. 

“I read a National Geographic magazine and saw a child boiling an 

egg in a puddle of water. I realized then that I needed to speak Chinese 

and Spanish so I can talk to anyone on the planet.” 

She did just that. 

After high school she lived in Spain and then attended Georgetown 

University, where she got a BA in Chinese language and literature. 

True to her mission of becoming a person of the world she spent her 

junior year in China and got a Masters Degree in psychology from 

Columbia University. 

Though Plante is educated in many disciplines, her belief is that if 

you focus on a mission you can complete any task. You could say she 

is a study of her own theory. 

As a lifeguard she thought nothing of swimming out to a riptide 

(with her back-up crew) and saving a swimmer. “I am strong; in six 

summers as a lifeguard I saved 75 people. I never thought anything 

could go wrong.” 

As a poster child for positivity, things rarely go wrong for Plante. 

That’s because she focuses on the good she can do in the world, and 

plows forward like an astronaut on a critical mission. 

Her accomplishments are the product of her innate gifts of brilliance, 

a competitive spirit and her upbringing. Her father Roger was 

her role model and inspiration. “My father is a thoughtful giver. He 

cares about other people and is kind and selfless, he’s my rock.” 

Unlike a rock Plante is more like a torpedo. She graduated college 

and set out to change the world one project at a time. 

She worked at Singapore Telecom in marketing and sales and began 

a journey into uncharted telecommunications landscapes. Plante 

traveled the world working for companies like Comcast, Prodigy, Cablevision, 

MCI and others. She developed products, launched highspeed 

internet, Video On Demand, branding, advertising, created 

apps, software and solved problems. 

When asked how she learned about all these groundbreaking technologies, 

Plante uses the wisdom that defines her. “I learn by doing, 

that carries me everywhere.” 

You bet it does. 

After working at Bankrate as Director of Product Development, 

Plante had down time. So, she volunteered and helped launch the 

Homeless Coalition. When she found out they were lacking in funds, 

she sprang into action and built their website, did marketing, fundraising 

and aligned with sponsors. 

Plante has a history of picking up the pieces for others. She has 

mentored the needy for years and when she sees a problem (or roadblock) 

she uses herculean strength to effect change. Her shift into 

high gear often includes her secret sauce – teamwork. 

High gear for Plante is supersonic by human standards. “Maura is 

a tornado for good and has dedicated her personal and professional 

life to helping others. She’s so smart – her mind and heart go hundreds 

of miles per hour. She’s a vital asset to our community,” said 

Ezra Krieg, Director of Housing, Gulfstream Goodwill Industries. 

Krieg has seen Plante close up. He has seen her come up with problem 

saving techniques and create solutions like a genie bursting out 

of a bottle of possibilities. 

She did that in 2016 when she started “Living Hungry.” The purpose 

of this food-driven initiative is to feed hungry people quality 

food. The organization has grown to feed over 2,600 people a week 

in Delray alone. 

But one thing that distinguishes “Living Hungry” from other food 

banks is they hand out 20-pound boxes filled with healthy food. Every 

Tuesday and Thursday mornings semi-tractor trailers are filled 

with boxes of cooked chicken, produce, cheese and healthy fare to 

give away at Cason United Methodist Church. 

Plante has volunteers (she calls feeders) that distribute the boxes 

to those in need. Lately it’s not just the homeless or food insecure 

coming for food, it’s a more diverse group. “In a crisis like this it allows 

us to rise up and love on each other and take care of each other.” 

To Plante taking care of each other is a calling from God’s employment 

agency. She helped send supplies to Puerto Rico and the Bahamas 

after Hurricane Maria and is known for her amazing resourcefulness. 

“Maura is everywhere helping people. She’s tireless in her efforts, 

and wherever good things are happening Maura is probably close 

by. She brings people together, is a great leader and an unsung hero,” 

said Katherine Waldron, co-founder of Palm Beach County CARES 

and Port of Palm Beach Commissioner. 

With the onslaught of job insecurity from Covid, Plante is seeing a 

new influx of people coming for food. It doesn’t ruffle her feathers – 

or cause an alarm – it merely catapults her into ethereal messenger 

mode. “We don’t consider this help; we consider it an experience of 

neighbors helping neighbors. At times like this we get a chance to 

feed people with dignity.” 

The ”we” at Living Hungry are the “feeders,” of which Plante is 

the quintessential one. “Some people have a calling in their life – 

they are called to feed people. We love feeding others, it’s our love 

language.” 

That language caused Plante to leave the corporate world (where 

she was offered a bounty of riches) but she never looked back. “This 

is not about money. It’s about love. We use food as medicine and are 

discovering how it positively affects people’s health. I love solving 

problems: The fun is in locking horns with impossibilities.” 

To know Plante is to know that there is no such thing as impossibilities. 

Miracles appear in her midst often - not only to her - but to 

those who walk beside her.

Does Nature Hold the Secret 

of Health for ALL Creatures? 

Working within the field of holistic and naturopathic 

health, not only are we observing the holistic (whole 

body), and the naturopathic (how nature handles things) 

but we look for all the inter-species connections and similarities 

to expand our understandings. The more we understand and learn 

from animals in the wild, the more we can determine how to heal 

and prevent disease. 

How do animals in a natural environment avoid or prevent major 

pandemics? I marvel at how in nature, that birds, insects, and all other 

creatures have the innate ability to know what to eat, how to find a 

safe water source, know where to nest or sleep safely plus have the 

ability to apply this knowledge to all other aspects of their lives. How 

is it that thousands of species in this world have the instinct to know 

who is safe and who is not? For example; we have the little songbird 

nesting in the tree watching the ducks walk by doing nothing but then 

attacks the cat or the crows to defend its nest. 

Of all the world’s creatures, few have chosen to live among humans 

with the exception of our domestic pets. Interaction between species 

is rare and mostly secondary. Prey animals control the population balance 

of non-prey creatures but also provide a symbiotic relationship 

of feeding the scavenging creatures. 

Our domesticated pets are the ambassadors of the natural kingdom 

to us. They provide special traits that we are now realizing are imperative 

to guide us in our appreciation of the universe. 

With regard to this special bond, we have to observe and question 

our relationship with these special creatures. They are there to 

comfort us in stress and illness and protect us in times of danger. It is 

instinctive, not taught or learned. While we can appreciate these instincts, 

which allow most of our domestic pets to still have the ability 

to instinctively return to their feral and wild state without additional 

training or learning if necessary. 

We need to honor and relish our special relationships by treating 

our pets like the royalty that they are. Have you learned what their 

real needs are in respect to nutrition, healthcare and well-being? 

What is species appropriate nutrition for your dog or cat? Why is 

this most important for their health and longevity? When they came 

out of nature to adopt us, did they require vaccines, medications or 

special scientific foods? Did they bring with them all kinds of disease 

and other challenges? 

The answers to these and many other questions are foundational 

in the physiology of these magnificent animals. If we truly understand 

the lesson they are bringing to us from the natural world, our lives 

will be truly blessed and healthier. They show us the importance of a 

proper nutrition in the way their bodies improve when a species appropriate 

diet is applied. We see the adverse reactions they have when 

we intervene with drugs, surgeries and treatments. We see the effects 

of our toxic environment on their overall existence. 

We are their guardians and have been given this gift to learn from. 

We have the obligation to learn and understand in the most comprehensive 

way that the answers are not found in a bag, a box, a bottle, 

vial or a pill but are in the natural world that surrounds us. Our pets 

have presented the lesson. It is up to pet parents to learn and do.
