Fighting Flames and Empty Stomachs: The Story Behind The Food Pushers Cook Book
By Steve Urena hoever coined the phrase If you cant stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen, clearly doesnt know Andover resident Rick Melfi, who has been a professional chef and a volunteer fire fighter for over twenty years. Melfi has won many awards for his dedication to cooking and will be adding another merit to his collection, the release of his own cook book. This collection of recipes is entitled: The Food Pushers Cook Book and it will feature 175 different recipes from appetizers to desserts. Chef Melfi explains why he decided to compile this cook book: As a professional chef, one of the things you have in the back of your mind is to write a cook book and I didnt realize how much work it really is. To me, this book is really a labor of love. I wrote this cook book as a homage to my mother and grandmother, who were both born and raised in Italy. I grew up in a typical Italian-American family, where dinner was served every night and we enjoyed our meals together as a family. It really was a tradition, so this book shares stories of my family and then the recipes. Melfi has been praised by readers of the book for the organic ingredients used in his recipes as well as the simplicity of the preparation. Melfi tries to bring his audience back to the days of food that mom used to make, instead of ingredients involving canned or
processed foods. Melfi shops around for his ingredients at local establishments in order to get the flavor of his food just right: I cook very simply. I love to cook foods that are in season and I like the whole idea of the farmers markets that you can go to and purchase food locally, even meats and cheeses. The quality and the flavors of those foods are far above the food sold in supermarkets. Its always good to shop markets
and see what you can use to take the freshest and best ingredients to cook for food. Melfi is a self admitted food pusher and professes food pushing to be the theme of the book. Most people are puzzled to what that means but he gives a proper definition: A food pusher is that person that always asks you if you want to eat something. This person is everywhere, no matter where you continued on page 4

Executive Director of Noahs Ark Todd Cramer shares how important the event is to the shelter: The Howl & Hike Dog Walk and Family Fun Day is one of our signature fundraisers. Folks collect pledges online or the old fashioned way and bring them with them to the event where they complete a scenic walk around Horseshoe Lake in Succasunna. There are prizes for the top pledge raisers and folks can also form teams and win a team prize. This is a great way for businesses and clubs or Scout troops to get involved and make it more fun. I would love to see teams walk with banners and signs showing their company pride. This event is like a convention for canines and people are encouraged to bring their furry best friends.

Food Pushers Cook Book...

continued from front page go. If you go to someones house that person is always going to ask you if youre hungry or thirsty and youre always going to have to eat something. Whether its bread, or cookies, or dessert, someone is always asking you to eat. These people are affectionately referred to as food pushers and both my mother and grandmother were food pushers. When Chef Melfi isnt cooking meals at his job or for his family, he is seen helping out the Andover Township fire department. He is currently their president has been an active fire fighter since 1991. Melfi explains how he fights both, flames and empty stomachs.
Its just a sense of serving the community. I think there is a need for a lot of people to serve in that capacity. Eighty percent of all firefighters in this country are volunteers and where would we be if we didnt have people to come and do this. Fire doesnt know the difference between a volunteer and a paid fireman, when we have a fire we act as professionally as paid fireman do. Melfi first submitted the Food Pushers cook book for publication in 2008 and is just now seeing his book come out in print. The book features 175 different recipes for all tastes and it is available at authorhouse.com and your local Barnes and Nobles.

He will also offer historical and religious insights into the current state of interfaith relations. Rabbi Visotzky will lead several discussions as Adath Shaloms scholar-in-residence. On Friday evening, Nov. 18, at a sponsor dinner, he will give a short talk based on his new book, Sage Tales: Wisdom and Wonder from the Rabbis of the Talmud (Jewish Lights Publishing). During Friday night Shabbat services, he will focus on Jewish relations with the Vatican. Rabbi Visotzky, who has spent much of his career trading insights with high-ranking Catholic, Protestant and Muslim clergy, has served as visiting professor at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome. On Saturday morning, Nov. 19, he will give a sermon titled Isaac Unbound: Three Religions Read the Akedah (the binding of Isaac), examining how each of the three Abrahamic faiths views this biblical story. At a Kiddush luncheon following Saturday services, the scholar-in-residence will discuss From Cairo to Qatar: Recent Developments in Jewish-Muslim Dialogue. To register for the scholar-in-residence program, contact office@adathshalom.net; (973) 539-4440, or visit www.adath shalom.net.

ith the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, the recent political upheaval in the Arab world, and Europe grappling with virulent anti-Muslim sentiment, interfaith dialogue has taken a back seat on the world stage. But Burton L. Visotzky, a rabbi, raconteur, author and bridge-builder, will shed light on this complicated picture, when he serves as Adath Shaloms scholar-in-residence Friday and Saturday, Nov. 18 and 19, at the synagogue, 841 Mountain Way, Morris Plains. Rabbi Mark Biller, the spiritual leader of Adath Shalom, will welcome the scholar-inresidence. Rabbi Visotzky was one of my most wonderful teachers at the Jewish Theological Seminary, Rabbi Biller said. He mixes humor with deep insight to teach history, Jewish midrash, and politics. Rabbi Visotzky has a wide-ranging background in interfaith relations. He has spoken with the president, the pope, and the Saudi king. He consults with the U.S. State Department and has met with imams the world over. This lively, engaging and entertaining speaker has made a career out of promoting understanding between the faiths, a specialty that won him recognition in a recent issue of Newsweek.

tate agencies now have to feature and promote Jersey Fresh products in their eateries under a law signed today by Governor Christie that was sponsored by Assemblywoman Alison Littell McHose and Senator Steve Oroho. Serving homegrown produce or baked goods at our state facilities sends a positive message about our state, supports local economies and helps preserve New Jerseys farming heritage, McHose, R-24, said. When people eat at a New Jersey facility, they should have no doubt theyre in the Garden State with plenty of menu options featuring Jersey peaches, corn and tomatoes to choose from. The bipartisan measure, A-2342, was signed on August 17, 2011 by Governor Christie. The law requires state agencies to provide enhanced visibility and accessibility
New Law Promotes Jersey Fresh Products for Local Farmers
to Jersey Fresh and Jersey Grown products served in their facilities. All state agencies, departments and facilities should be purchasing New Jersey grown products if it is practical and feasible, Oroho stated. Not only are Jersey grown products fresher and better tasting, but their purchase helps the local economy, supports New Jersey farms, preserves open space and protects the environment. The bill reflects changes under a law sponsored by McHose and Oroho and signed by Governor Christie in January that included baked goods under the Jersey Fresh label. We need to make sure that farming remains a big part of our states economy and culture, McHose said. Encouraging the use of the products grown and baked by local farmers is one way to accomplish that.

2nd Annual Pink Extensions For The Cure from Alfonso's Salon
ctober is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and Alfonsos Salon is offering hair extensions in two different shades of pink, to raise money for breast cancer research and hopefully an eventual cure. The extensions are $12. each, and all profits and donations from this fundraiser will go to the Susan G. Komen Foundation -Passionately Pink For The Cure. "We always do something in October for Breast Cancer Awareness", says Alfonso Merola owner/stylist of Alfonso's Salon at Sutton Plaza in Flanders. You hear of so many people that have been affected either directly, or indirectly, when it happens to a family member, or relative, neighbor, or coworker. It's important for everyone to be diligently aware of it, and to do what we can to bring the cancer rate down. Presently the best defense against breast cancer is prescreening to stop it before it happens." The salon will start the fundraiser the last week of September and continue to the end of October. In 2010 the salon was able to raise $5,000.00. This year with everyone's help they hope to exceed that amount, appointments are suggested, but not required. The process only takes a couple of minutes, the extensions are compressed into the hair, and can be taken out at any time. With proper maintenance they can last up to
Apple Festival Community Fair
four months, if the hair is pre-shampooed with a non moisturizing shampoo and not conditioned at the root area prior to getting it done. The extensions are good quality human hair and can be curled or flat ironed. For clients that dont want an extension, but want to donate to the cause, donations are being collected in a jar up front at the salon located at 293 Route 206, Sutton Plaza, Flanders, and at Valentino's Pizza next door. Alfonso's Salon is a full service salon with a great staff and has been in business for 30 years, specializing in all hair services, cutting, color, styling, keratin treatments and more.
By Elsie Walker f you like apple, music, games and sales, then the place to be is the Apple Festival Community Fair being held at the United Presbyterian Church of Flanders. The 10th annual event, which will be held on September 24th from 10am 4pm, features fun for all ages. The rain date for the event is the following Saturday, October 1st. The church is located at 58 Drakesdale Road in Flanders. We will be selling many baked goods made with apples, apple cider donuts, as well as apples donated from Ashley Farms said Rev. Rick Oppelt, pastor of the church. Live music will be provided by musicians from the church including Oppelt, plus there will be a fall favorite: hayrides. Children-focused fun will include a bounce house, childrens crafts, and childrens games and prizes.
For those that like to shop, there will be a just two bucks flea market, several vendors, and a used books sale. Also, a live auction will take place at 1pm. As it has been at every Apple Festival, a blood mobile will be on hand for those who would like to donate blood. The need for blood continues to be high and it is one way individuals can do a small thing to help others, said Oppelt. Proceeds from this event will go to supporting the many programs of the church, including its family ministries and mission trips. The church is involved within the surrounding neighborhoods and beyond. In addition to participating in local projects, each year it sends a large group to work on making homes safer and drier in Appalachia through the Appalachian Service Project. For more information on the Apple Festival Community Fair call 973-584-8195 or visit the churchs website at www.unitedpcf.com.

DID YOU KNOW?
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that comes from the decay of uranium found in most soils. Radon can enter the home by moving up through the ground and into the air above before moving into a home in a variety of ways, including through cracks in solid floors, through construction joints, and through cracks in walls. Gaps in suspended floors and around service pipes are additional entry points for radon. Once radon enters a home, it then becomes trapped inside, where buildup can occur. Radon buildup can potentially be very harmful or even fatal. A radioactive gas, radon is among the leading causes of lung cancer in the United States. In fact, only smoking causes more lung cancer deaths than radon, which can enter a home whether that home is new, old, well-sealed, or drafty. Homeowners concerned about radon, which is invisible and odorless, should have their homes tested.

Things to consider when budgeting your home improvement project

Before beginning a home improvement project, homeowners should construct a budget to ensure the project is a success.
Home improvement projects have become de rigueur for todays homeowners. Be it a kitchen remodel or the ever popular man cave project, home improvement projects remain a goal for many homeowners. As enticing as a home improvement project might be, no project can be successful until a budget has been established. The right budget will keep homeowners from going deep into debt when improving their homes, ensuring that, upon the projects completion, they can fully enjoy their revamped castles without the specter of significant debt hanging ominously over their heads. Before beginning a home improvement project, homeowners can take the following things into consideration. Personal finances: It sounds simple, but homeowners must examine their finances before starting a home improvement project. Just because a bank will loan out money for a project doesnt mean the project is affordable. Homeowners should compare their monthly expenses with their incomes, and then determine whats left that might be able to go toward a project. Monthly expenses include everything from groceries to mortgage payments. When the comparison between monthly expenses and monthly income has been made, homeowners can get a grasp of just what they can and cannot afford. Credit score: Many homeowners finance home improvement projects with loans from the bank. Particularly in the current economy when banks are being forced to tighten lending
requirements, securing such loans isnt easy. Homeowners with significant credit card debt should eliminate such debt before beginning a project. Doing so serves multiple purposes. First and foremost, eliminating outstanding debt will free up more money to allocate toward the project. Eliminating debt will also make loan applicants more attractive to prospective creditors, increasing their chances of securing a loan and a lower interest rate. The projects priority: Budgeting a home improvement project also involves being honest as to just how necessary the project is. For example, a man cave might be a dream project, but should it be a priority over other things around the house? If wear and tear is taking its toll on the roof, for instance, the money going toward the man cave should probably be allocated to replacing the roof instead. If a project is low on the priority list but high on the want list, re-examine those projects higher up on the priority list to determine if they are more deserving of immediate attention and funds than vanity projects. Overrun costs: Not every home improvement project will come in at or under budget. Many, in fact, go over budget due to a host of factors. Homeowners should not be caught off guard when a project goes over budget. Instead, plan for the project to go over budget and expect such frustration. Allocate extra money in the original budget for overrun costs. This will reduce stress and frustration, and if the project comes in under budget, then theres extra money when the project is completed.

UNDERSTANDING DIFFERENT SIDING OPTIONS

Stucco remains a popular siding option among homeowners who want to change their homes aesthetic appeal. extremely cold weather. Solid wood: Wood siding can last for decades and many homeowners love its old-fashioned appeal. However, homeowners who dont want the hassle of worrying about their homes exterior might be better suited to other options, as wood siding can be difficult to maintain. Because wood will expand or contract depending on the season, wood siding is prone to cracking or splitting, and especially humid climates might foster mildew in wood siding. Wood siding typically requires restaining or repainting every few years, and such maintenance is necessary throughout the sidings lifespan. Proper and routine maintenance of wood siding can also help reduce the risk of termites or mold. Aluminum: Durable and affordable, aluminum siding is easier to maintain than wood, though many homeowners still choose wood over aluminum on the basis of aesthetic appeal. Many homeowners often come down to deciding between aluminum and vinyl siding, and environmental concerns might come into play when making that decision. Aluminum siding is considered by many to be the more eco-friendly option, as some feel vinyl siding is bad for the environment and might even negatively affect human health. Aluminum siding is generally windresistant and homeowners enjoy its status as a relatively low maintenance siding option.
Seemingly from the moment a home is purchased, its new owners start envisioning ways to transform their new pad into their dream home. Once they turn their key for the first time, homeowners enter an empty home and see a blank slate on which they can improve. But even before homeowners enter their new home, chances are the homes exterior has inspired a few improvement ideas as well. One of the more common home improvements is changing a homes exterior siding. Many new homeowners want to change their homes appearance with siding but might not be sure which option is the best fit for them. The following guide to siding options might help make this decision that much easier for homeowners still on the fence. Vinyl: Vinyl siding is a popular choice among homeowners who dont want to break the bank to change their homes exterior look. Vinyl siding is one of the more affordable siding options, and many homeowners are attracted to its durability and reputation as a very lowmaintenance siding option. Seamless vinyl attracts homeowners because of its aesthetic appeal. In general, vinyl siding is wind-resistant and unlikely to rot, scratch or blister, and vinyl siding does not attract insects nor is it susceptible to mold or mildew. However, some vinyl siding cannot withstand
Stucco: Many homeowners prefer stucco siding because of its unique makeup that allows them to choose a design and color uniquely their own. A manufactured product made up of cement, lime, sand, and water, stucco is easy to maintain and can last a very long time. Stucco installation, however, is an intricate process and homeowners can expect to pay more for stuccos installation than they would with other options, even though the installation can be finished very quickly, particularly when compared to wood siding.

DONT BE AFRAID OF PATTERN

Many homeowners want to introduce pattern to their rooms but dont know where to start. They may wonder if two patterns match or how to determine scale. It may take a little practice, but using pattern is easier than one may think. Nothing adds visual interest to a room more than pattern and color. While homeowners may have the knack with color, they may shy away from pattern. Individuals can trust their instincts theyre usually right. For those who have mastered pattern with their wardrobes,
its time to try out some pattern in home design. Varying pattern size adds dimension to a room. Not every pattern should be the same size and variety, otherwise things can look too matched and staged. Try varying patterns of similar colors but experiment with size. For example, place a largely patterned area rug on the floor. An ottoman may feature a medium-sized pattern. Mix things up by alternating throw pillows in a floral or paisley print with subtle stripes. However, make sure the texture of the fabrics match. Gauzy
curtains with heavy chenille pillows may clash. When selecting patterned items, choose similarly colored items. This way even if the fabrics or patterns arent exactly the same, theyll look cohesive through color. For a room to feel a bit more upbeat, consider complimentary opposite colors. If you prefer a more restful atmosphere, try a palette of colors from the same family. Just vary the intensity of the shades. Homeowners who have gained some pattern confidence may want to strike out on their own to create a room that is unique. Those who still need a little help may want to consider taking the path of designers before them. There are certain patterns and fabrics that have already been established as working together for certain design styles. Here are a few. American Southwest: Navajo patterns are at the forefront of this design style and can be used on upholstery or pillows. Use a smaller-scale stripe on window treatments. Solid-shaded throw pillows in a complementary color to the
Navajo pattern will coordinate well. English country: This style is about large-scale chintz on sofa and draperies. Mix in narrow striped, slip-covered lounge chairs for a little extra panache. American country: A small floral print on the sofa or comforter can be offset with a large country quilt pattern hung on the wall as a wall treatment. Checkerboard checks, medium stripes on draperies or select crocheted valences coordinate well. 18th century: Lavish patterned fabrics in chintz or paisley featuring golds and robins egg blue are just some of the options for classic decorating. Modern: Mix stripes and geometric patterned items in splashes of color to add a modern feel to a room. Individuals can experiment with patterns to make a room more personalized and less of a neutral blank page. If it proves difficult to come up with patterns that work together, look at design magazines or books for some inspiration.

Use a magazine picture as inspiration for your room, then select similarly shaped and scaled furnishings that mimic the look for less money.
Create a DESIGNER LOOK ON A BUDGET

Interior designers have a knack for pulling together furniture and accessories to create rooms with widespread appeal. But not every homeowner has the resources to hire a professional to help turn their interior from drab to fab. Fortunately, it doesnt always take a pro to transform a homes interior. The key to creating a beautiful room is planning. Designers do it and so should you. Measure the dimensions of the room and create a sketch of the area using graph paper or computer software. Be sure to plot any windows or doors on the drawing so that you will be aware of obstacles. Homeowners unsure of what they want should browse through magazines or pictures on the Web for inspiration. Search for key phrases that describe your design style, such as Tuscan, farmhouse, country, colonial, etc. Then read up on the components of these styles that define it. This will help you select items that fit with the style. Once a particular style has been chosen,
create a design board just like the professionals. Cut out swatches of fabric, select paint swatches, find magazine pictures that fit with your goal and arrange them on a piece of poster board. See how the items work together. If you are unsure of colors, see which shades were used in the inspiring picture and determine if it will coordinate with your home. When designing, identify or create a focal point in the room and build off of that. This may be a large window, fireplace, or even the entertainment center if its a family room. Place furniture around the focal point and then move outward. Its also important to keep scale in mind. Large walls or tall ceilings will create plenty of wall space. A small print or wall hanging will be lost in such an area. Be sure to choose furnishings and accessories that fit with the scale of the room. In other words, a huge sectional may overpower a small living room. When choosing colors, make sure they are cohesive. Research the color wheel
that artists use to help with designing the room. Some colors are complementary or opposites and still work together. Homeowners nervous about color should choose a color from fabric or furniture and use a few different shades of the same color in the room. Select an accent color that can be used on trim or as a spot of color on a pillow or accessory. When plotting wall hangings or other decor, odd numbers often look more pleasing to the eye. Experiment with different sizes of framed artwork or different shaped accessories for visual appeal. For example, a few rectangular shaped items with a circular clock and a conical flower vase can mix it up in the room. This is where looking at magazine layouts can be extremely helpful. Many stores sell items that mimic the look of higher-priced items. When copying a designer room, select pieces that are similar, but not necessarily the same brands. Consider shopping at second-hand stores or antique shops for discounted pieces. With a little new
fabric or stain, many items can look like new again. Shopping online also may enable shoppers to find items more readily and see how they look in staged rooms. When designing, it never hurts to think outside of the box. Items that were intended for outside may work well inside as well. Hanging lanterns or plant stands could be put to use in a rustic room. Save some money by making some items yourself. For instance, if you cannot find a particular throw pillow or drapery that fits with your style, go to a fabric store and purchase fabric to make your own. Decorating doesnt have to cost a fortune or look like you pieced odd items together. By following the guidelines of a designer room and selecting lowerpriced items that mimic the shape and scale of similar accessories, its possible for any homeowner to create a room for less.

EASY AND ECONOMICAL SOLUTIONS FOR THOSE POSTPONED REMODELING PLANS

If you cannot wait any longer to make some much needed changes in your home, you are not alone. Americans are once again getting ready to begin the home improvement process. This pent-up energy often begins in the kitchen, a room that gets a lot of wear and tear but also seems to go out of fashion more quickly these days. This time around, you will be more cautious like many consumers are with their choices and costs and yet you want to make observable changes. The most obvious change is installing a new countertop. Remember that countertops represent 30 percent of the color in any kitchen. Create new excitement by simply replacing your tired, scratched or stained counter surface with one made
by Gale Steves
from the latest generation of premium laminate. The latest additions to the popular WilsonartHD High Definition design series reflect new interest in natural, classic and tumbled marble, limestone and travertine. The good news is this fashionable look is available without the high cost of stone or the constant maintenance those stones require. These lighter, less patterned laminate designs are perfect for todays hectic lifestyle. In fact, the new cost-efficient countertop can be installed within a few hours and without disrupting family life. They also give an existing kitchen the promise of a whole new look thats universally appealing. That equals a big change for small change.
All of these new designs are available in a new surface effect of a lower matte-gloss sheen that seems almost glazed. The Glaze texture is actually a layering of matte features over a glaze of semi-gloss. This creates a timeworn result that is less reflective and more restrained. Its a perfect balance for the sophisticated dramatic materials that are part of todays kitchen: stainless steel, chrome, copper, and even glass. Wilsonart patterns benefit from AEON Enhanced Performance technology, which brings four times the scuff and scratchresistance of conventional laminate, as well as five times the wear resistance to the surface. Unlike granite, the surfaces of these new laminates are non-porous and never need to be sealed.
Here are some other remodeling ideas that will have high impact without high expense: Replace your old refrigerator with an energy-efficient model. Look in the big box stores for floor models or even those with a little dent on the side, which will never be seen. Refresh your cabinets with a coat of paint, and change all the cabinet hardware in the process. This makes everything look new. Swap out your old ceiling light fixture and install under cabinet lighting as well. A little light can make a dramatic difference. Change your sink or sinks.

THE HIDDEN COST OF CONVENIENCE

With so many different devices deemed necessary these days, people often are unaware of the amount of energy used and the costs associated with keeping these devices running. While there has been a lot of discussion on vampire devices, electronics that continue to consumer power even when in the stand-by position, it seems that many other everyday hidden costs are overlooked.
year or two.

A more everyday example that might not be considered as often is batteries. Batteries power all of our portable devices, and without them, we are powerless to use them quite literally. Standard alkaline batteries may last a long time, but we constantly need a supply of them on hand and they can be expensive. When you stop to add up how many AA or AAA batteries a standard home uses (all those remote controls, wireless keyboards, mice and game controllers, not to mention the loud toys for the little ones), the hidden cost of replacement batteries can surprise you. Luckily, theres a solution thats more efficient and costs less over time. Rechargeable battery technology has improved in the last five years that gets rid of many of the questions of using rechargeables. One example of these batteries is the eneloop, a pre-charged rechargeable battery that you can use out of the package and recharge up to 1,500 times, made by SANYO. It also keeps its charge, up to 85 percent after two years of nonuse. Because the eneloop is ready to use and has low self-discharge (meaning that it holds its charge for a long period of time), they are more appealing and more cost-effective than ever before. If they are able to meet the demands of our remotes

ew Jersey Blood Services, a division of New York Blood Center (NYBC), which serves more than 20 million people in New York City, Long Island, the Hudson Valley, and New Jersey, is following the emergency declarations of Governor Christie and other tri-state public officials with an emergency appeal for blood donors. The supply of several blood types, including Onegative (universal donor) blood, which is normally maintained at the three-to-five-day inventory level, has dropped below the two-day minimum level. We anticipated the potential effects of Irene, and delivered extra blood in advance to our 200 partner hospitals, said NYBC Vice President Rob Purvis. Our first priority remains getting them whatever they need for the care of trauma and cancer patients. Due to concerns for the safety of its donors and staff, NYBC closed its donor centers and cancelled all blood drives on Sunday, August
Blood Donations Urgently Needed Following Hurricane
28. With Labor Day right around the corner, were between a rock and a hard place, Purvis added. We need the help of our communities to replenish the blood supply. The need for blood is constant, whatever the weather or holiday. The shelf life of platelets is only five days; the shelf life of red blood cells is 42 days. About one in seven people entering a hospital needs blood. We faced a similar situation after the Christmas Blizzard and Januarys constant snowstorms, when cancellations meant the loss of 8,000 units of blood. Purvis said. Our neighbors came through for hospital patients then, and replenished the blood supply. We need them to step up again, and schedule an appointment to donate life-saving blood.

HE WAY WE ARE LIVING IS CRAZY! The United States currently produces more obese, chronically ill and depleted people than it does vital, fit, resilient ones and this trend is growing by leaps and bounds. Two out of three U.S. Adults is overweight or obese. At any given time, half of us are contending with at least one chronic disease. How many of you reading this now are reliant on pharmaceuticals whose side effects and interactions undermine your health and quality of life. Our children, too, are becoming ill and prescription dependent at younger and younger ages, and now their life spans are being shortened as a result. ENOUGH ALREADY! Our collective lack of vitality has become an oppressive source of misery and waste, one that threatens to impede our life, our liberties, and our pursuit of happiness. You, yes you, can change this! THERE ARE POWERFUL SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL FORCES UNDERMINING OUR HEALTH. Our culture didnt get this unhealthy by accident. From the processed food industry to pharmaceuticals, wellfunded interests rake in huge amounts of money off our unhealthy population. Theyve been doing it for decades, and they pay billions of lobbying dollars to make sure they can keep doing it. This special interest not only manipulates public policy and the media to our disadvantage, they conduct huge misinformation and marketing campaigns designed to keep us buying into products and behaviors that you and I know hurt us. Their message? That their health-sapping options are wholesome, easy, appealing, cool, fun, affordable, delightful indulgences that will make us and our lives so much better! And, most of the country has taken the bait. Overall, the American people have been brainwashed into adopting daily behaviors and choices that poison our bodies, fog our minds and cost us billions in medical bills. Do you agree? Heres what those powers-that-be wont tell you: Buy into
Being Healthy Is A Revolutionary Act! A Manifesto For Thriving In A Mixed-Up World Take Charge Of Your Health, Now!
what currently passes for normal in America, and youre unlikely to stay healthy for long. FORGET ABOUT QUICK FIXES There is no magic diet, powder, pill or elixir! Forking over cash for quick fixes only lines the pockets of the quick-fix hucksters who helped get us into this mess. So instead of squandering your valuable time and money on miracle cures, invest in making healthy life changes for the long haul, which is what Chinese Medicine is all about. The Asian cultures have the most people, living a vibrant life, past the age of 100. It is unfortunate that now many of these cultures have adopted our western diet and are now facing the same health challenges we are. Chinese Medicine is a preventative medicine which always takes ones diet and lifestyle in account; it is a major part of how we diagnose during your initial visit. Chinese Medicine believes that food is the most powerful drug in the world but it can also kill you. THE TIME FOR COMPLICITY IS OVER. Tempting as this may be, we cant blame this ALL on a conspiracy of health-sapping influences. Yes, it is true that were surrounded by supersized junk foods and sedentary pastimes, yes; weve been saddled with misleading labels and industry-influenced dietary guidelines. Yes, weve been bombarded by demoralizing media, manipulative advertising, and downright lousy advice, like wonder bread builds strong bones, really! But still, weve taken a lot of that sitting down. For too long, weve allowed ourselves to be over-prescribed, overfed, under- informed and overindulged. Weve been quick to embrace superficial solutions and half-baked ideas. Weve permitted ourselves to be pandered to in the name of ease, convenience and value and weve grown passive, expecting effortless cures to come from the outside. Conspiracy theories notwithstanding, the greatest threats to our well-being lie in the health-sapping decisions we

make every day by default. Because healthy choices have been rendered tougher than they should be, and because like frogs in hot water weve been willing to tolerate the intolerable until now! Chinese Medicine has been helping families stay healthy and prevent disease from happening for thousands of years. You can turn around your health, it is your choice. What do you choose? THE RESISTANCE IS ALIVE AND WELL. Every day, more and more of us are waking up to the realization that no one is going to save us but us! Were getting clear that if we dont want to get sucked into an unhealthy quagmire, weve got to start swimming against the tide. Its time to put on your bathing suits, so to speak. Lets us help you. Come learn about what it takes to keep your body and mind strong and well. You will be buying and preparing more whole, nutritious foods and avoiding processed junk. You will start moving and sweating and exploring, but you are also resting and playing and connecting. At Skylands Acupuncture and Wellness Center you will learn how to reclaim control of your healthcare choices. You will be armed with resources to help you on your way to vibrant health. We are dealing with the root causes of your health challenges, rather than simply suppressing your symptoms. In short, we are treating your health like the fundamental priority it is. You will be rising up to take back the power for your own well being. And you will discover how good that feels.

any people are worried about their electronic devices thanks to identity theft and hacking. It's widely known that thieves can steal credit card information by swiping or reading your card with a special device. In addition, cell phones and Internet accounts can be breached. What many may not know is that other devices can be hacked as well. Everything from insulin-delivery devices on the body to baby monitors can be tapped into, an invasion of privacy that can have serious health implications. Being aware of the dangers can keep people safer from this intrusion.

by Elsie Walker he contestants wonder who will get a crown. Earlier in the day, they were interviewed by the judges. Now the talent, swimsuit, evening gown, and onstage question competitions have narrowed it down, but everyone holds their breath as they wait to hear who will become Miss Gateway, Miss Tri-County, and Miss Northern Lakes. The thrill and entertainment of a Miss America pageant will be coming to the area on October 1st when the Miss Gateway 2012, Miss Tri-Country 2012, and Miss Northern Lakes 2012 pageants (preliminaries to the Miss New Jersey and Miss America pageants) are held at the Stanhope United Methodist Church, #2 Route 183 in Netcong. Doors open at 5:30pm, with admission paid at the door. The event starts at 6pm with a production number, North Jersey Triples Glee Project, featuring songs from the popular TV show. 12 -14 young women will be competing for the three crowns. Those women include local resident Devon Caposello of Lake Hopatcong. It will be Caposellos first time competing in the Miss America system. Piano, vocal, dance .ballet on pointe, lyrical, jazzguitar, and singing, are what Terry Karns said that the audience can expect to see during the talent portion of the competition. Karns, of Stanhope, has been involved with the Miss America organization for 25 years and is Executive Director of the Miss Gateway pageant. Sharon Rosequist of Netcong is Executive Director of the Miss TriCounty pageant, and Jeanne Viscito, Berkeley Heights, is the Executive Director of the Miss Northern Lakes pag-

Karns noted that all the positions at the local and state levels are handled by volunteers. Some are giving back to an organization that has helped them. Several former titleholders are coming back to give their time [at the October pageant], said Karns. He noted that last year the Miss America organization awarded $40,000,000 in scholarships (combined local, state, and national level). It is the largest provider of scholarships to young women.
Proceeds from the October pageants audience admission, refreshments sold during intermission, and raffle go to the pageants scholarship fund. Each winner of a title will get a scholarship, plus other prizes. IHOP has donated two of the crowns. The winners will also go on to compete in the Miss New Jersey pageant held in Ocean City, New Jersey, June 12-16, 2012. Karns will be there, too, cheering on the local titleholders. Absolutely! We have to be there to support our girls, he said.

Thomas Edison
A Renowned Deaf Inventor & Creator of Sound Technology

by Michele Guttenberger hile developing his telephone transmitter in July of 1877, Edison envisioned a machine that could record and play back telephone messages. Edison laid out the designs for his idea and gave it to his machinist John Kruesi to construct. A pivotal milestone in history was made the first week of December 1877 when a sound generating machine called the phonograph was invented. Edison had achieved 1,090 patents in his lifetime. He had 195 patents for the phonograph which comprised of 18 percent of his total patents. The phonograph was one of the most remarkable inventions of its time. However, what is even more awesome was that it was invented by a person who was completely deaf in his left ear and had 80 percent hearing loss in his right ear. Without argument, one can say that the phonograph was invented by a deaf inventor. Edisons hearing loss was a result of contracting childhood scarlet fever. He sustained further hearing loss at the age of 14 years from a head trauma incident. Edison spent his entire adult life with almost total hearing loss, yet he felt inspired to make these sound machines that he physically could not fully appreciate. He did not improve upon an existing technology. He was the creator of new discoveries in an industry that never existed before where the invention was to generate a property his own senses did not have complete admission to. Now that is truly a great visionary inventor. We are reminded that physical challenges do not disable great visionary minds. They instead trigger these great minds to journey beyond their own physical boundaries to inspire invention of that which is closed off to them in their everyday world. This August the Thomas Alva Edison Museum started workshops on how to make the museum more welcoming for visitors who are blind or visually impaired. They invited experts Joe Ruffalo - President, National Federation of the Blind, New

This may be the start needed to lure visionaries with physical sight limitations to invent visual wonders that only they can revolutionize from a sightless perspective. You can see the display of Edisons phonograph inventions. Visit The Thomas Alva Edison Museum. Open Wednesday through Sunday.
