The Beat Goes On…
Three Dog Night Drummer Pat Bautz is “Livin’ the Dream” Pat Bautz says he can’t remember when he didn’t want to be a drummer. Growing up in Melbourne “I always had a set of sticks in my hand.” He credits two of his drum-playing older brothers with influencing what became his life’s work.

Grills Riverside
A taste of Port Canaveral comes to the lagoon in Melbourne, and it’s good A great meal and a spectacular view Both come courtesy of Grills, a standby in the port’s Cove dining district, where for years locals and visitors alike have lined up for seafood, entertainment and general all-around conviviality in what everyone once simply called “the tiki bar.” The Caribbean-casual atmosphere translates well to the new venue off U.S. Highway 1, where people stand elbow-to-elbow, not unhappily, to celebrate evenings, weekends and just about anything else with the beautiful Indian River before them, and so the place is formally “Grills Riverside.” It ...

What’s New in Olde Eau Gallie?
Turns out there are plenty of exciting developments in the cultural heart of the Space Coast. When William Henry Gleason founded Eau Gallie more than 150 years ago it’s probably safe to say he had no idea that this community nestled adjacent to the Indian River and named for the coquina rocks along its’ shoreline would eventually evolve into Brevard County’s cultural center. After merging with the city of Melbourne forty years ago, the area was in danger of losing its identity, but all that has changed in recent years. Today Eau Gallie has earned the reputation as an artists’ ...
It’s Just a Number
In her thirteen years as a practicing anesthesiologist Dr. Kim Zipper saw many patients undergoing surgery for preventable problems. “During that time I would see fifty-five year old female patients that were always on the same three to four medications. Drug therapies simply mask the symptoms, that’s why it’s important to start on the path to good health early. They required surgeries for conditions like gall bladders and uterine bleeding, most of which were self-induced-they just were unaware of it and this really bothered me. I would get so disappointed, it was difficult to watch so many people who had ...
