After months of suffering from an array of neurological problems, Catherine was finally diagnosed with Batten disease, which is a progressive, always fatal neuro-degenerative condition for which there is no cure. Upon learning of her diagnosis, Catherine was determined to help others around the world by starting a 501(c)3 that would fund critical research being done by Massachusetts General Hospital and University College London. So far, she has already raised over $100,000 from her grassroots efforts, and she hopes this golf tournament will bring a greater awareness about a disease that is often misdiagnosed.-Tournament is at 5800 NW 2nd Avenue-Boca Raton-561-994-0400-To find out more about the First Annual Tournament, to become a sponsor, or to learn more about Batten Disease, please visit www.catherineshopeforacure.org

Interesting Note: Today's Booming Cocktail Culture: SO WHAT ARE PEOPLE DRINKING?
?
'Generation X'? / 'Generation Y':? Not Your Father?s Cocktail
Some of the people polled strongly feel that drink choices are different along generation lines. While the 'Boomers' tend to stick to their regular drink of choice, they find 'Gen X and Gen Y' drinkers are highly open to experimenting and sipping something new. Perhaps the words of a seasoned cocktail veteran and general manager of Boston's new Island Creek Oyster Bar, Tom Schlesinger- Guidelli, sums it up best: ?Wine drinkers still drink wine. Tequila- and agave-based spirits as a whole have grown.? In particular, you see movement in the craft cocktail world through younger drinkers who find wine intimidating and cocktails as an easier avenue for exploration. At the end of the day, you still see people in a pretty classic, aperitif style cocktail before dinner, wine or beer with dinner and straight spirit after.?

MOVIES MOVING INTO MIZNER ~
Plans for an upscale iPic Theater with a bar and restaurant were presented at the city's Dec. 8 Planning & Zoning Board meeting. The owner hopes to have the new movie house open by May, after the long-vacant space at the south end of Mizner Park is totally redesigned. The former Sunrise Cinemas location closed last winter, and an eviction lawsuit was filed in March.
The new movie house will be reconfigured with only 40 to 60 seats in each of eight spaces. The luxury section has push-button recliners and allows food service 20 minutes into the feature. The lower-priced seats up front are leather, and movie goers can buy food there and bring it in while they watch. The box office will move inside, but patrons can also buy tickets and pick their seats in advance online.
iPic Entertainment president and CEO Hamid Hashemi presented the site plan as part of his request for 1,932 more square feet, approved unanimously. A new facade will alert patrons it's a cinema, instead of the blank wall there now, he pointed out.
The former Muvico founder and CEO formed iPic in 2007. The company now has eight locations in Arizona, California, Illinois, Washington, Wisconsin and Texas.

Looking for UNUSUAL &
AWESOME THINGS TO DO
IN MIAMI??
HERE ARE 3 I'LL BET YOU'VE NEVER DONE BEFORE! ?
Good for visitors coming into town when you're being thrust into the role of tour guide?
1. "You've heard of swimming with dolphins, now how about biking with gators?" Try two-wheeling the Everglades' Shark Valley for a "sporty, authentic and jaw-dropping" adventure. Just be warned: the gator's winsome smile might actually appear "right up on the trail!" Or get a bite of the action on Buffalo Tiger's Airboat Tour of Florida's wetlands. The fact that the alligators were "close enough to touch" makes this perfect for visiting out-of-town guests.? And with tickets starting at $20, it ain't going to cost you an arm and a leg!
2. go 'camera crazy' at Coral Castle -One visitor said:? "This astounding and mysterious coral marvel was built by a lovesick man" for his estranged fianc?e. What's bonkers is that he chiseled Miami's version of Stonehenge "by moonlight, without modern equipment!" The Venetian Pool is Coral Gables' claim to rock stardom. With waterfalls, cave-like grottos and its signature bridge, you'll feel removed from civilization! To experience nature's finest flora, visit the Fairchild Garden. Or to a lesser-known retreat that most people in Miami have no idea even exists: The Kampong is the former abode of famed horticulturalist David Fairchild and is "worth the visit for the serenity and exotic greenery."
3. Make Miami's enviable bay your next port of call and take a Thriller of a speed boat ride: One visitor said:? "The worth-every-penny moment came when we jumped the wake of another boat . I felt like we were in an action movie!" And if the only running you're doing is into Miami's arms, South Pointe Park is picturesque. One visitor said:? "Once you've had your fill of ogling the beautiful boats, swing over to Joe's Take Away for a few claws to polish off on the grass outside. It's a little slice of utopia!"?

~Plato, said, "You can discover more about a person in an hour of play, than in a year of conversation."
~Every child should have 2 things: a dog, and a mother who let him have one.
~When asked whether he ever confused a Bordeaux with a Burgundy in a blind tasting, British wine legend Harry Waugh replied: "Not since lunch.

"Look,? I eat really well and I work out, but I also indulge when I want to. I don't starve myself in an extremist way. You're not taking away my coffee or my dairy or my glass of wine because I'd be devastated."
