CCM President Presented with Enterprise Award from Morris County Hispanic-American Chamber of Commerce
D
r. Anthony J. Iacono, president of County College of Morris (CCM), has received the Enterprise Organization of the Year Award from the Morris County Hispanic-American Chamber of Commerce (MCHACC) in recognition of his and the college’s support of the Hispanic-American community. In presenting the award to Iacono, Esperanza Porras-Field said, “The Morris County Hispanic-American Chamber of Commerce recognizes you as a leader with a profound local impact on our business. Your strength of character, passion and commitment to service are admirable. You have been an outstanding representative of the mission of the MCHACC.” Porras-Field served as event chair for the 30th Anniversary MCHACC gala and award ceremony held December 5 at the Birchwood Manor in Whippany. “It is such an honor to be recognized by the MCHAAC,” said Iacono. “As I like to note, County College of Morris does great things every day, but we do even greater things through the strength of our partnerships with organizations such as the MCHAAC, which is such a strong resource for the success of the Hispanic-American community.” The mission of MCHAAC is to advance the interests of businesses and organizations that serve the U.S. Hispanic-American market. Iacono became CCM’s third president in 2016. Since then, he has worked diligently to strengthen the college’s relationships in the community and with business and industry. One of his guiding principles is that “great community colleges are those which strengthen the local economy by helping to attract, retain and support businesses, along with providing a high-quality education that changes lives.” In addition to building strong ties with the MCHAAC to support the Hispanic-American community, the college

also recently was awarded an $110,000 grant from Impact 100 Garden State to launch the Dover College Promise. That project will prepare low-income students in Dover for college and provide them with scholarships to cover tuition at CCM. The population of Dover is 70 percent Hispanic or
Latino. By increasing the number of students who earn college degrees, CCM and its project partners, The Educational Center of Dover, the Dover School District and business and community leaders, hope to further elevate the town as graduates become leaders in their community.

Full Mouth Dental Implants
F
or some people, there comes a point when they say to themselves, “OK, it’s time I did something with my teeth.” Dental implants might be a solution, and full mouth dental implants or All-On-Four® might be appropriate. Reasons for this epiphany can vary greatly, and might include: frustration with constant pain, bleeding gums, a smile that they are ashamed of, inability to chew and eat, or dentures they just can’t wear. Dental implants can help with all of these issues. They can provide comfort, stability, increased chewing efficiency, and improved self-esteem. Overall health improvement is another result reported by people soon after implant treatment is completed. Dental implant treatment options can vary greatly: 2 to 6 implants can be placed to stabilize a denture, individual implants can be placed to replace missing teeth, or 4 to 6 implants can be utilized to provide permanent teeth. This last option is called All-On-Four®, or full mouth dental implants. This option is appropriate when all remaining teeth require removal, but it is very important to understand this is not everyone’s situation. Oftentimes, people arrive to my office thinking this is what they require, and they are pleasantly surprised when I can present multiple options to them, and some of these options help them to keep their teeth. In the All-On-Four® option, any remaining teeth are removed, 4 to 6 implants are placed, and teeth are attached to the implants. These 3 steps are typically performed in
one appointment, so the patient is able to leave the dental office with teeth the same day. It should be noted that these are temporary teeth: the final teeth will be fabricated approximately 4 to 6 months later. All-On-Four® has revolutionized implant dentistry. Although more expensive than dentures, it is less expensive than traditional full-mouth implant reconstruction. Costly and time-consuming grafting can oftentimes be avoided, too. Furthermore, pain levels are significantly decreased. People sometimes think they are not implant candidates because of their age. This is a misconception. In fact, as a person ages, it becomes more important to be able to eat so that proper nutritional needs are met. Dentures do not provide proper biting force to chew food, plus they weaken the jaw. Implants improve chewing ability, and strengthen the jaw as compared to dentures. A
person’s health is a key factor when considering implants, not age. Who should perform dental implant procedures? Only well-qualified dentists who have had extensive training in implant dentistry. Some patients think they have to see an oral surgeon or periodontist (gum specialist). This is not true. It is not so important as to what type of dentist places them, but rather how much training and experience they have. Also, don’t forget that there is a second part to the implant once it is placed: one or more teeth have to be placed on top of the implant. If an implant is placed while ignoring this second part of the treatment, disastrous results may follow. One reason many people seek out my office is because we perform both phases of implant dentistry (placement AND restoration) in the same location: patients do not have to see multiple doctors in multiple offices.

Randolph Police Launch a Voluntary Video Surveillance Program
T
By Henry M. Holden he Randolph Township covers approximately 21-square miles with an estimated 25,746 residents. It has 36 full-time sworn officers, and six civilian employees. With over 9,000 households and 95-percent of them with internet access the township police are dedicated to employing every resource to prevent and solve crimes, and to protect residents and their property. Among those resources is the Internet’s Wi Fi which is a game-changer, and a crime-solving resource.
Most of us have heard of thieves who steal packages ordered online. Around the holidays, there is an increase in the number of packages shipped and the number of packages stolen off the porches of some residents. A few residents have resorted to revenge by placing a box with animal droppings or household trash for the thieves to steal. However, the smart ones are signing up with the Randolph police department’s voluntary video surveillance program. “Since more people have security cameras these days, and other police depart-

ments in the area are looking into surveillance cameras, we thought it would be a good resource to help the police department and also help the residents of the town,” said veteran patrol officer Michael Shoudy, of the Support Services Unit. “If we were doing an investigation in a certain area, say for example, a burglary, or a car theft, we see if the area has registered video cameras. Officers and detectives can use the registry to identify cameras in the vicinity that may have gathered activity of evidential value.” “If something happened on a street, we have a phone number and an email for them so we can contact the person right away.” “We’re asking residents and businesses to register their privately-owned surveillance camera systems. This is a voluntary program aimed at creating a partnership between the residents and the police department to help solve crimes more quickly. These cameras may capture persons and events without the owner’s knowledge.” Residents will only be contacted by the Randolph Township Police Department if there is an incident within the vicinity of a camera system. Officers or detectives may request to view the footage in order to as-
sist in their investigation, and they will only contact residents at reasonable hours. The residents can drop out of the program if they wish. “We can ask them to show us some video footage and they can decline. it’s completely voluntary in every aspect of the program.” “The program is relatively new,” said Shoudy. “We started in late October, and we have a few dozen residents already signed up. We’re trying to get the word out because we think it’s a win-win opportunity. The residents will feel safer knowing there is electronic coverage in the area and the police can use the resource to more quickly identify and arrest the criminals. We stress that this program is completely voluntary. If we call them, they can say no. There is no obligation in any way.” To sign up for the Video Surveillance Camera Program, please complete the Video Surveillance Camera Registration Form. This is a fillable form which may be filled out on a computer, saved to a hard drive and/or printed out. Once completed, please e-mail the form to mshoudy@randolphnj.org, fax to 973.659.9939, or pick up the registration form at the records bureau window at the police department, and drop off at the police department.

A VIEW FROM THE LEFT
W
In Defense of Iowa
EDITORIAL &
Opinions
e have reached that time in every presidential nominating year when distinguished, national opinion leaders beat up on Iowa and that admirable state’s influential role in determining the two major parties’ eventual presidential nominees and, therefore, the next president. The USA Today editorial board indicts Iowa for being “one of the least ethnically diverse states in the country” and its status as the first-in-the-nation presidential test every four years as “ un-American,” while Paul Waldman writes in The Washington Post that the Iowa caucuses “are a crime against democracy.” It is time someone stood up for Iowa and Iowans. It’s true that Iowa is neither very representative of the entire nation nor very average. Scholarly studies have ranked Iowa as tied for first place in percentage of the adult population who are high school graduates. Iowans are fourth highest in access to health care (more “representative” Florida and Texas rank 46th and 47th respectively in citizens’ access to health care); first in broadband access; and third highest in public libraries per capita. True, the Hawkeye State leads the nation in production of corn, soybeans and pork, but Iowans are at the top of the nation in literacy, and the state has the U.S.’s 14th lowest murder rate. But Iowa remains a small, rural state in the middle of the country. How representative can its voters be of the nation at large? The answer: amazingly so. In 1992, Democrat Bill Clinton won 43% of the national vote and the White House; in Iowa, Clinton won 43% of the vote. In 1996, winner Clinton carried 49% of the national vote and 50% of the Iowa vote. In 2000, Democrat Al Gore won the national vote by one-half of 1% and Iowa by one-third of 1%. Republican George
TH
Mark Shields W Bush won reelection in 2004 with 51% of the national vote and 50% in Iowa. Democrat Barack Obama, in 2008, got 53% of the national vote and 54% of Iowans. In 2012, Obama was reelected nationally by a margin of 4% and in Iowa by 5%. In 2016, the exception: Donald Trump, who lost the national vote by 2% to Hillary Clinton, carried Iowa by a solid 10%. Yes, Iowa’s 2008 Democratic caucuses were 93% white, and those mid-American Caucasians made history by giving legitimacy and momentum to a freshman senator from Illinois, Barack Obama. In Iowa, the African American underdog won an upset victory over the heavily favored former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and was propelled to the top of the national polls. In fact, the rest of us owe Iowa our thanks. Iowans faithfully and earnestly fulfill their civil responsibilities by showing up at campaign town halls and listening and questioning the men and women who seek the White House. They take their responsibility seriously continued on page 6

n November, I was banned in Boston after speech-squelchers on the left and right forced the cancellation of my lecture at Bentley University, a small private institution. The grassroots activists who had invited me were rejected by every major event venue in the nation’s purported Cradle of Liberty. The tail-tuckers cited security concerns or jacked up their rental fees to make it prohibitively expensive to gather peacefully to discuss -- gasp! -- ideas. Lou Murray of Bostonians Against Sanctuary Cities and Jessica Vaughan of the Center for Immigration Studies heroically persisted, pulling together a great event at a private home attended by 100 patriots who risked their privacy, friendships and even their jobs to listen to -- gasp! -- ideas. Soon after, a group of conservative students at the University of Maine, a publicly funded school, invited me to bring my nationalist message about who’s funding the destruction of America to their campus. This prompted the College Republicans’ faculty adviser, political science professor Amy Fried, to resign in protest. That led to the de-chartering of the CR group. Why? Because I refused to disavow other young students who have asked trenchant, pesky questions at Young America’s Foundation and Turning Point USA lectures about the GOP elites’ support of wage-suppressing, job-outsourcing, Democrat voter-importing policies that put American students, workers and families last. Many of those students follow a 21-year-old nationalist named Nick Fuentes, who hosts a program (for now) on YouTube and DLive in his basement called “America First.” Because I re-
Michelle Malkin fused to play the gatekeepers’ game of condemning every last joke or chatroom comment or tweet of someone followed by students whose questions I support, Fried believes that no students at her campus under her watch should be allowed to hear what I have to say about, well, anything. How strongly do University of Maine officials oppose the free association of college students who want to know more about my work? Yesterday, I learned from Portland Sheraton at Sable Oaks general manager Ed Palmer and others that at least one University of Maine official -- along with dozens of others cancel culture jihadists galvanized on social media by an anonymous Twitter account called “Support Maine’s Future” -- had called to complain about the students and me after they posted an event notice last Friday. I reached out to top administrators, who did not respond by my filing deadline. I also wrote to Fried, who respondcontinued on page 6

continued from page 4 ed late Tuesday evening: “I never did that. Didn’t happen. Whoever told you I did is incorrect. Thank you for checking, as you received a false report regarding me.” I responded: “Too bad you didn’t pay me the same courtesy.” Adrienne Bennett, a Republican candidate for U.S. Congress (Maine, District 2), challenged the school’s bullying tactics: “Free speech is the cornerstone of a free democracy. We are hearing reports that administrators from the University of Maine pressured a private Maine hotel to cancel an appearance by conservative speaker Michelle Malkin. If true, this is a disturbing
development from Maine’s public, landgrant university,” she blasted. “All universities -- but especially those that receive public funds -- have an obligation to foster free speech and free inquiry. I support President Trump’s recent executive order on campus free speech. ... I am disturbed that academic elites would interfere to block this speech. For those who disagree with Malkin’s views, the answer is debate and discourse, not censorship.” My upcoming speaking schedule (for now) includes the New York Young Republican Club (Jan. 16); somewhere, hopefully, in Maine (Jan. 17); Liberty Forum of Silicon
In Defense of Iowa... continued from page 4 and then, on a cold winter night, hundreds of thousands of Iowans leave their homes and go to the local church hall, firehouse or school gym and spend a couple of hours declaring and defending their presidential preference openly in front of neighbors and friends. In the caucus, firefighters join shoulder-to-shoulder with nurses, teachers, retirees, students and small businesswomen in truly vibrant democracy. Here in Iowa, because Iowans give them a full and fair chance, the underfinanced, under-
dog candidate has a real chance. It was in Iowa that Jimmy Carter broke through and where George H.W. Bush’s upset win would lead to his being chosen vice president.

Republican Jeremiah Childs astutely observed: “They’re doing this to delegitimize us because we’re popular.” Popular, peacefully expressed ideas that threaten establishment empires in both parties must be stopped. The pretense of free inquiry and association must be propped up by the tolerance hypocrites on the left and the culture warrior poseurs on the right.

ccording to data from Statistics Brain, the American Cancer Society and Health Land, around 70 percent of smokers harbor a desire to quit altogether, while 40 percent of smokers will try to quit this year. Quitting smoking is a popular New Year’s resolution, and a choice that can improve smokers’ health dramatically. Smokers
can reduce their rate of dying from smoking by half just by quitting before age 50. Although the percentage of smokers who will succeed in quitting the first time around is small, it is still worth the effort. Today there are many different plans, medications and smoking-cessation support groups to help smokers as they attempt to quit.

Roxbury High’s Kellie Damelio Earns NJ.com’s Gymnastic Coach of the Year Accolade
K
By Jerry Del Priore ellie Damelio couldn’t have asked for a better first season as Roxbury High School’s Gymnastics head coach. The team, who was in just its second year as a program, went 10-0 during the regular season in 2019 and captured the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA) North Jersey, Section 1 title. As a result of the Gaels’ fantastic campaign, NJ.com bestowed Damelio with the gymnastics New Jersey Coach of the Year honor, astonishing her, to say the least. “I definitely didn’t expect that,” Damelio said of the accolade, with complete conviction in her voice. “There were a bunch of coaches doing this for years. It really came as a shock and surprise (to me).” But Damelio refused to take full credit for Roxbury’s winning ways, saying when she took over the reigns from Tara Liska, who departed for a job in South Jersey, she inherited a group of gifted athletes. Several of the Gaels, including Tiffany Zieba, who captured the prestigious all-around, bars, floor, and vault events at sectionals, came with many years of club gymnastic experience. “I walked into a program with a talented bunch of girls,” she said. “They were a blessing to coach. They were a gift. I’m very proud of our girls.” As for Zieba, a level 10 gymnast, Damelio said she’s very skilled and verbally committed to Division I Quinnipiac Uni-
versity on a partial scholarship for tumbling and acrobatics. “It’s very hard to compete in college. You have to be really good at gymnastics,” which Damelio said Zieba is more than capable of doing, that’s why Quinnipiac offered her some scholarship money to compete. “They don’t give out a lot of money in general.” A former high school gymnast at West Milford, where she also ran winter and spring track, Damelio took her years as a competitive athlete and coaching experience into her first season at the helm at Roxbury. And it paid tremendous dividends, she noted. While coaching the Gaels this season took up a ton of her time, Damelio said that the end results and being around the girls made it all worth the effort. “Coaching is a big time commitment,” the special ed teacher at Roxbury High School said. “But it was all worth it. I truly love these girls.” Damelio said Mount Olive, who finished second in the sectional finals, could be the team to beat next season, as Roxbury will lose three seniors -- Zieba, Megan Merola, and Ashley Miller, all of whom were captains -- to graduation. But she’s confident the Gaels will find a way to be competitive. “They’re very talented,” Damelio said of Mount Olive. “They’ll probably dominate. However, I think we’re (Roxbury) going to be successful. I do have some club gymnastic girls that are returning.”
The 2019 Roxbury Gaels Gymnastic team was comprised of Ella Yarznbowicz, Madison Hansen, Paulina Zamora, Jeniah Agosto, Morgan Valdes, Katie Parr, Alexis Merola, Shaday Gibson (team manager), Alex Novack, Ashley Miller, Megan Merola, and Tiffany Zieba.

Randolph Cheerleaders Take Nationals by Storm
M
By Dawn M. Chiossi aking Randolph proud and celebrating girl power, the 19 members of the Randolph Cheerleaders Junior Rams headed to the National Competition Championships in Orlando Florida on the weekend of February 8th. Founded by Randolph High School’s Cheerleading Booster Club members Cheryl Freund, Evelyn Brockman, and Sharon Ruiz, the squad is made up of students expanding from grades four through nine. Fueled by teamwork, unity, and hard work, these girls begin cheerleading during August’s summer heat, with practices three or more days or nights per week. In competing three to four times per month (in which they have won 1st place several times), these girls demonstrate diligence, prowess, and athleticism on a regular basis. Remarkable that the Junior Rams are only in their second season. “Making it to the National Level is the goal of most competition cheerleading teams,” Head Coach, Dana DellaValle points out. “The National High School Cheerleading Championship (NHSCC) is the most prestigious cheerleading championships across the country. Several performance arenas are set up at ESPN Wide World Of Sports where teams compete in semi-finals. The teams that score the highest will make it to the final round. They work extremely hard to improve each week to the next with the goal of earning a bid (invitation) to the Universal
Cheerleading Association’s NHSCC.” Thousands of athletes and spectators from hundreds of schools from across the country attend this event, and
DellaValle has reason to be proud. As someone who has been involved with competitive cheerleading most of her continued on page 10

Randolph Cheerleaders... continued from page 8 life, and has a lifelong love of the sport, she has been coaching the Randolph Junior Rams since the teams’ inception. Coaching along with Assistant Coach Christina Dock, and volunteer Coach Giselle Ruiz, DellaValle shares that recently the team not only earned a bid to Nationals but also won 1st place in their division at UCA’s Kutztown Regional Competition. “Coach Dock and I are very passionate about competition cheerleading. We believe that much of what is learned through competition cheerleading can be applied to our athletes’ lives as they grow and mature, traits and characteristics such as patience, perseverance, dedication, and hard work. We are so proud of the girls and their hard work so far this season,” Dellavalle prides. With an ever-changing choreographed routine and solid foundation of mastered skills, the Junior Rams are a mixture of artistry and athleticism, bringing it on. “Our competition cheerleading routine is 2.5
T
minutes of excitement, endurance, and high energy!” She promises. “We have skills such as standing tucks, double toe touch jumps, inverted stunts, spinning stunts, dance, cheer, and pyramid compacted into our 2.5-minute routine. It is exhilarating to watch and gets more exciting during every performance.” For the members of the Junior Rams, cheerleading isn’t solely just about winning. It’s a success based on teamwork, about being inspired to be their best--even considering the age gap between athletes. Something that translates to much more than stunts or routines. She shares that the coaches even print out motivational quotes or team jokes on small sheets of paper in which the members of the team stick in their right shoes. “It serves as a small reminder to get motivated,” DellaValle says. “We are so proud of the unity and friendships our girls developed this season, they have turned into a little family of their own. There are so many things that inspire us about RJR. First and fore-
most, the respect and unity our girls have towards each other is so wonderful to see. When one of our athletes executes a new tumbling skill or if a stunt group hits a new skill, the rest of the team is just as happy as the athlete(s) who hit it. They encourage each other to be the best and try their hardest and that’s all we can ask for in a team,” she prides. For DellaValle and the Randolph Junior
Rams, the encouraging spirit of teamwork also extends to the other teams, not only just to their own. “It’s inspiring to see the love that not only RJR has for the sport but other teams as well,” she enthuses. “We are a competitive team, but we always wish our competitors good luck and cheer on their successes. The camaraderie that cheerleaders have is the absolute best.”
Did You Know?
he modern bridal shower may trace its origins the 1890s. “The Old Farmer’s Almanac” says the first bridal shower hostess filled a paper parasol with small presents and turned it over the head of the bride-to-be. Soon the concept caught on, and many other women began “showering” future brides in such a manner. Naturally, as presents became larger and heavier, the tradition of literally showering the bride with gifts was modified — but the name has stuck. Bridal showers are designed to equip couples with many of the necessities to start their new life together. This custom is believed to have evolved from an old dow-
ry system, in which a bride was expected to bring valuables to the marriage. The dowry was originally intended as compensation for the burden of supporting a wife placed on the groom. Some parents of the bride were not rich enough to afford an ample dowry, so friends and family members would offer small gifts to help offset this financial responsibility. Today, both the bride and groom are equal partners in the marriage, bringing together their collective wealth. However, showers are still held regardless of the financial need of the bride as a way to offer good wishes before she embarks on her new journey.

Veterans’ Community Park Comes to Randolph
R
By Henry M. Holden andolph Township has four major parks: Freedom Park, Hedden Park, Randolph Lake/Park and Brundage Park where residents can enjoy watching or participating in a game of baseball, soccer, tennis, swim, see stage productions created by young people and performed by Munchkins (in Brundage Park Playhouse) and where children can have fun on swings and other kiddie rides. These are all parks designed for the most part for active sports. “The idea for building a Veterans Park was incorporated into the development of the Parks and Recreation Master Plan in 2016,” said Russ Newman, Director of Parks, Recreation and Community Services. “After it was proposed we went through a design phase, and then it had to be put out for bids. Then the bid had to be awarded. So we didn’t actually break ground until September 2018.” “The first construction company went bankrupt in July 2019, causing a temporary stop in the construction of the park. We finalized a new contract with a new
company in November 2019, and the construction work on the completion of Veterans’ Community Park also resumed in November 2019, when the new contract was signed,” said Newman. “We are hoping the park will be completed by the summer of 2020.” Rochelle Contracting, of Landing, New Jersey assume responsibility for the project’s completion. The new park will feature an amphitheater, a band shell for public celebrations and concerts, quarter-mile paved track, a lighted walkway loop, a community garden, a pavilion will be available for rental picnic parties and other celebrations. Pickle ball courts, paved and natural trails, rest room facilities, and multiple open areas for passive recreation and public events will round out the park’s profile. The project was funded from the Park and Recreation/Open Space Trust and no additional municipal funding will be required to complete the project. The construction of the park was originally expected to be completed in the fall of 2019 but pushed into the spring of 2020 and now to the summer due to the original contract as

default. “The park was funded for about $2.5 million, and we are on target with that,” said Newman “The concept of the park is to have an area where we can do public gatherings celebrations,” said Newman. “Our other parks are mostly centered around athletic facilities so this is more of passive space where people can just go and enjoy the quiet as well as having a place where we
can have public celebrations.” “About a year ago we asked the residents for input into what to name the park,. and Veterans’ Community Park is what came out of that request. The park will be located on Calais Road, in Randolph, about a half mile west from the community center.” Any questions or additional information please call 973-989-7081

CCM and Randolph to Offer High School Students College Courses Students Can Earn College Credit at Their High School
C
ounty College of Morris (CCM) and the Randolph School District today signed a dual enrollment agreement that will provide high school students with the opportunity to begin their higher education early. Through the partnership, CCM will provide Randolph High School students with a pathway to start earning college credits at their high school. The program is aligned with the New Jersey Office of the Secretary of Higher Education’s vision to provide students with early exposure to college. To start, CCM will offer Randolph High School students the opportunity to take a general psychology college course identical in content to the class offered at CCM at half the price of the in-county tuition rate. Currently, that equates to $68.50 a credit, plus fees, for Randolph students. As the program develops, other college-level courses will be provided. The program, named Titans Express, will start this year. College-level classes at the high school will be taught by Randolph High School teachers working collaboratively with CCM professors. Through the program, participating students also will have access to CCM resources, such as the library, tutoring services and academic advisement. “We’re pleased to enter into this agreement to provide Randolph students with the opportunity to begin their college education early and to start earning credits toward a degree,” said Dr. Anthony J. Iacono, president of CCM. “Early exposure to college means students can start exploring areas of interest sooner so they can better determine the educational and career pathway they want to pursue.” “One of our missions at Randolph is to foster innovation. To fulfill that vision, we strive to create an exemplary learning com-
munity that prepares students to excel in a complex interconnected and changing world,” said Jennifer Fano, superintendent, Randolph School District. “The achievement of college education is one of multiple pathways for students to explore to become the responsible, capable and progressive world leaders we know they can be. Our partnership with CCM enhances accessibility for students to higher education. CCM’s rich history of academic excellence in Morris County has left an indelible impact on the lives of thousands of students. I am grateful for the partnership and the opportunity for students to pursue college level course work while enrolled at Randolph High School.” “I am thrilled that we are continuing to enhance our connection with CCM,” said Dr. Deborah L. Iosso, Randolph High School principal. “Our students can only benefit from the work that we are doing to provide them with more college level opportunities right in their own backyard. The faculty and staff at CCM have been amazing to work with and I look forward to a productive relationship moving forward for the benefit of our students.” Credit hours earned by students will be applied to the corresponding certificate or associate degree program at CCM should students decide to enroll at the college. The college credits also may apply to their high school graduation requirements or bachelor degree programs offered at four-year institutions. To apply to the program, parents and guardians first need to fill out the application for CCM’s Challenger Program for high school students. The application can be downloaded at http://bit.ly/challengerprogram/. That application then should be submitted to the CCM’s Admissions office

I Remember Dad:
M
Dad’s Love for the Old Morris Canal
By Richard Mabey Jr. y father had a great love for the history of the old Morris Canal. After all, his father, Watson Mabey, worked as an Engineer on Incline Plane Ten East in Lincoln Park. And, his grandfather, William Mabey, once owned and operated an icehouse along the banks of the canal. The Morris Canal was a page of New Jersey history that was near and dear to his heart. For over 20 years, my Dad served as the Vice President of the Lincoln Park Historical Society. And, in that time, Dad must have given well over a hundred educational talks on the old Morris Canal. Most of the talks that Dad gave, were at the Lincoln Park Museum. One of Dad’s favorite subjects, for his many talks, was explaining the intricate mechanics of how an incline

DeFillippo Named Chair of North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority
orris County Freeholder Kathy DeFillippo was elected to a twoyear term as Chair of the North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority (NJTPA) during a Board of Trustees meeting. “I am honored that my fellow board members have entrusted me to serve as chair of the NJTPA,” Freeholder DeFillippo said. “This is a critical time for transportation in North Jersey as we continue to make the case for new rail tunnels under the Hudson River and plan for emerging technologies that can improve mobility. I look forward to working with the Board, our many partners and NJTPA staff to improve transportation and quality of life for our region’s residents.” The NJTPA oversees regional transportation planning and annually authorizes more than $1 billion in federal surface transportation funding for 13 counties in northern and central New Jersey.
Chairwoman DeFillippo also recognized outgoing chairman Angel Estrada, a Union County freeholder, calling him a “dedicated leader and a strong advocate for enhancing equity, improving mobility and strengthening the economy.” Freeholder DeFillippo joined the NJTPA Board in 2014. She was first elected as a member of the Board’s Executive Committee in 2016, serving two years as Board Secretary. In 2018 she was appointed to a two-year term as Third Vice-Chair. She most recently served as Chair of the NJTPA’s Project Prioritization Committee and is a past Chair of the Freight Initiatives Committee. DeFillippo was first elected to the Morris County Board of Chosen Freeholders in 2013. Prior to being elected freeholder, she was a councilwoman in Roxbury Township from 2006 to 2013, serving as mayor in 2009 and deputy mayor in 2011, 2012 and 2013. She has a long history of public and
community service. She is a past president of the Roxbury Area Chamber of Commerce and retired in 2016 from the board of the NJ Metro Chapter of the National MS Society (NMSS) after serving as a trustee for 10 years. Still an active member of NMSS, she was a driving force in bringing the Walk MS to Roxbury in 2006 and continues to serve as a fundraiser for the event. At the meeting, the NJTPA Board also selected four other members of its Executive Committee: Passaic County Freeholder John Bartlett, First Vice-Chair; Ocean County Freeholder John P. Kelly, Second Vice-Chair; Warren County Freeholder Jason Sarnoski, Secretary; and Middlesex County Freeholder Charles Kenny as Third Vice-Chair. The Executive Committee provides guidance and leadership to the full Board on a wide range of planning, policy and administrative issues. Board membership is an uncompensated position.
Kathy DeFillippo NJTPA is the metropolitan planning organization for 13 northern New Jersey counties. It stablishes the region’s eligibility to receive federal tax dollars for transportation projects.

Saint Valentine’s Day; the Legend
M
By Henry M. Holden ost of us are familiar with St. Valentine’s Day. Every February 14, people exchange Saint Valentine’s Day messages of affection, love and devotion around the world. According to the History Channel, approximately 150 million Valentine’s Day cards are exchanged on Valentine’s Day. That makes it the second most card sending day in the world. Why is it the most important human emotion is so poorly celebrated and lost in a ritualistic exchange of chocolates, silly cards, and stuffed animals? At least one movie, a romantic comedy, was produced in 2010 about the day. The movie follows nearly two dozen people as they find and lose love in all its many forms over the course of the title day. Critics called it, “glib, shallow, lame, and stale” so it is no wonder the movie yielded only an 18-percent score on Rotten Tomatoes. But that one bad apple should not spoil the barrel, and why the day is celebrated. The American Film Industry listed their 100 best love stories with Casablanca (1942) coming in at number one. Number 100 is Jerry McGuire (1996) and number 50 is Shakespeare in Love (1998). Strangely, in the 20 years since Shakespeare in Love there has not been a love story added to the list. The day became infamous for a short time when seven members of Chicago’s North Side Gang were gunned down in a garage in what became known as the “St. Valentine’s Day Massacre.” It remains one of Chicago’s darkest moments but has never darkened the spirits of lovers on that day. St. Valentine’s Day is also clouded by fanciful and mysterious legends. The traditional observance of Saint Valentine’s Day comes from an early pagan ritual of Lupercalia and Christian legends surrounding the martyrdom of a priest. Historically, Valentine’s Day has nothing to do with love. Little is known of the saint’s life, but most church historians believe he is at least the namesake of the holiday. If we look back on the origins of romantic love, we find the custom emerged long after the saint died. There are several legends surrounding Saint Valentine’s Day. The story of St. Valentine’s Day begins in the third century with the Roman Emperor Claudius ll. According to one legend, Claudius had prohibited marriage of young men, claiming bachelors made better soldiers. Valentine, possibly a
priest, continued to secretly perform marriage ceremonies until he was eventually apprehended by the Romans and put to death. The most documented legend is the story of a priest/physician name Valentinus who fell in love with the daughter of Claudius’ jailer. Contrary to popular belief, he was not initially a Christian priest but a pagan healer. It was during the Roman persecution of the Christians that Emperor Claudius had ordered all Romans to worship twelve gods. He had also made it a crime punishable by death to aid or associate with Christians. As a healer, it was Valentinus’ job to help people. Not even the threat of death could keep him from practicing his healing arts. Eventually they arrested him for helping Christians. Ancient Rome did not have a speedy trial in their judicial system, and Valentinus languished for months in his stone cell. While in prison, he met many Christians and saw the dignity and conviction they had in their faith. Their strength gave Valentinus the strength he needed, and he converted to Christianity. Over the months he became friends with a jailer. The jailer, seeing Valentinus was a man of learning, asked if he could bring his blind daughter to Valentinus for lessons in Roman history. His daughter’s name was Asterius (some say Julia) and she was quick to learn. Valentinus read the history of Rome to her, described the world of nature, and taught her the Word of Jesus Christ. Asterius saw the world of Jesus through Valentinus’ eyes. She trusted him and found comfort in his quiet strength. Asterius wanted to see the world of Jesus through Valentinus eyes. “Valentinus does the Lord really hear our prayers?” she asked him one day. “Yes, my child, He hears each one.” “Do you know what I pray for every day?” She queried. “I pray that I might see. I want to see everything you’ve told me about.” “The Lord does what is best for us if we will believe in him.,” Valentinus said. Valentinus’ faith in the Lord was unswerving. “Let us kneel together and pray to the Lord Jesus Christ for strength.” As they knelt in prayer, a brilliant light invaded the prison cell. Asterius cried out, “Valentinus I can see! I can see!” “Praise be to the Lord,” exclaimed Val-
entinus. After calming Asterius the two knelt in a prayer of thanksgiving. In those days, declaring a miracle in the name of Jesus Christ sealed his fate. On the eve of his death, Valentinus wrote a note to Asterius urging her to stay close to the Lord and pray for strength. Valentinus, resigned to his own death, did not admonish his captors. He wrote to Asterius that it was God’s will. He signed a note “from your Valentinus.” On February 14, 270 A.D., Valentinus was clubbed to death and beheaded near a gate in Rome now called Porto Valentinus in his memory. Asterius secretly planted a pink-blossomed almond tree near his grave in what today is the Church of Praxedes. Today, the almond tree remains a symbol of love and friendship. Several centuries went by and slowly Christians were able to emerge and publicly display and practice their faith. The pagan Romans, now in a minority, still celebrated the feast of Lupercalia which had been popular from around 4-B.C. The church decided it was time to replace the pagan custom with a Christian observance. The pagan celebration honoring Lupercus, was the Roman equivalent of the Greek god Pan, a deity of fertility. It involved a bloody animal sacrifice, one of the many pagan customs abhorrent to the Christians. The names of teenage women were placed in a box and drawn at random by adoles-
cent men. The feast had all the trappings of a young man’s rite of passage. Determined to end this eight-hundredyear-old practice, the church sought a saint to replace the deity Lupercus. Since Valentine’s death fell on the eve of the feast, he was a convenient candidate to usurp the popularity of Lupercalia. In 496 A.D., Pope Gelasius outlawed the mid-February Lupercalia feast. The pope was clever enough to retain the random selection, aware of the Roman’s love for games of chance. In the box that was once held the names of available and single women, he replaced the names with the names of saints. Both Christian men and women drew slips of paper and were asked to emulate the life of the saint’s name they drew for the coming year. The spiritual overseer of this “game” was St. Valentine. For the women to draw the names of the saints must have disappointed many Roman males. Rather than be cut out of the picture and replaced by a saint, the young Roman men established a custom of offering women they admired a handwritten greeting of affection. They tied it into the drawing of the saint’s names and the greetings eventually acquired St. Valentine’s name. With the passage of still more time Christianity spread throughout the world. The Romans and other pagans slowly recontinued on page 19
Saint Valentine’s Day... continued from page 18 linquish their customs and replaced them with the Lord’s word. The affectionate greeting also spread with Christianity. By the 16th century, Valentine’s Day cards had all but eliminated the lottery of saints. St. Francis deSales, Bishop of Geneva, try to reinstate the lottery but with no success. Instead of the cards disappearing, they proliferated and became more decorative. By the 18th century, greeting cards with Cupid, the cherub, armed with arrows dipped in a love potion became a popular Valentine’s Day image in England. He became associated with the holiday because in Roman mythology, he is the son of Venus, goddess of love and beauty. The cards did not become wide-spread in the United States until around 1850 when a New England native began mass-reproducing them. Although the truth behind the Valentine legends is murky, the stories all emphasize his appeal as a sympathetic, and heroic figure but above all, a romantic figure. Today many of us send modern Valentine messages to reaffirm what Jean Valjean said in Victor Hugo’s Les Miserables, “The supreme happiness in life is in the conviction that we are all loved.” Let us

make this month not just a month of love, but the happy beginning to a year of loving and being loved and fulfil the Scripture the apostle Paul advised us, “Let all that you do be done in love,” (Cor. 16:14 NASB) In the words of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, “How do I love thee? Let me count the ways…” Give someone your message of affection on Saint Valentine’s Day in other ways that may be even more loving, memorable and lasting. Go back to when it all started by creating a second first date. Order the same foods, request the same songs, and see how many details you can recall from your first kiss. After dinner head for a karaoke bar. After all, what better way to celebrate your chemistry than singing classic-couples’ duets such as Sonny and Cher’s “I Got You Babe” together. Okay, the weather may not be great, so you don’t want to go out. Create a themed dinner and movie night at home. Find the movie Roman Holiday and watch Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck fall in love. Of course, you’ll need to accompany this with an Italian meal such as Lasagna, spaghetti and meat balls or your own creative dish. Remember we may give without loving, but we cannot love without giving.
United States Power Squadron Offers State Boating Safety Course
N
orthern New Jersey Sail & Power Squadron, a unit of the United States Power Squadrons (USPS) and now America’s Boating Club, will offer the New Jersey State Police, Marine Services Bureau approved Boating Safety Course at James Caldwell High School from 6:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. beginning on Tuesday, March 10, 2020. The course taught by certified instructors licensed by the State of NJ, and which meets all the mandatory requirements necessary for obtaining your New Jersey Boat Safety Certificate, will run every Tuesday evening for seven weeks which includes a night for review, and a night for the required state examination. The cost of the course is $90.00. Legislation in the state of New Jersey was passed a number of years ago requiring all boaters, 16 years of age or older, operating a power driven vessel including a personal watercraft (PWC), to complete a boating safety course. The legislation re-
quires a minimum of eight hours of instruction with at least six hours of in-classroom study, homework, and a proctored examination. Those successfully completing the course will receive a New Jersey Marine State Police certificate that must be in the operator’s possession when on the waters of the state. Failure to exhibit the certificate is presumptive evidence that the person has not completed an approved boating safety course and is subject to a fine. One must be at least 12 years of age to attend the course. Registration is made through the Continuing Education office at James Caldwell High School, after 6 p.m., Monday through Thursday. Their phone number is 973-2282092. Email: http://www.cwcboe.org/continuinged. Questions concerning the USPS course can also be addressed to the Boating Course Chairman, Bob Rosselot at 973-2285329; email: rosselot17@aol.com.

A Hot and Spicy Favorite
A
s the weather cools, spicy recipes can warm things up by satisfying your taste buds. For example, award-winning chef Elise Wiggins brings the heat with this Fiery Beef Harissa Polpettes with Cooling Milk Goat Cheese Sauce recipe. Inspired by her time spent cooking in Mexico and Central America, Wiggins puts a new spin on the popular polpette (Italian meatball), pairing bold seasonings with a cooling, dairy-based dipping sauce, made with pure, fresh Shamrock Farms milk. The recipe combination is a nice addition to any seasonal gathering, and the naturally soothing proteins in milk help combat the spice of the various chiles to cool down taste buds and complement flavors. Shamrock Farms milk also provides calcium, potassium and vitamin D, delivering flavor and versatility to a balanced diet without added growth hormones. For more recipes perfect for cooler

Help Yourself to Healthier Hummus
W
hether you’re hosting a houseful of guests or simply keeping your family’s hunger at bay before dinner, appetizers can be a home chef’s best friend. Simple options like dips allow for personalization while keeping cook time to a minimum. The next time you’re looking for a quick fix, consider this Caramelized Sweet Onion Hummus recipe that’s ideal for pairing with pita bread, veggies or crackers. With the layered flavor, color and texture of onions serving as a key ingredient, it’s a nutritious substitute for less health-conscious appetizers and snacks. In fact, onions can be called nature’s ninja because of their many “skills.” Onions add abundant flavor to a wide variety of foods with just 45 calories per serving as a source of dietary fiber, vitamin C, vitamin B6, potassium and other key nutrients such as folate, calcium and iron. They are also rich in heart-healthy nutrients and have been shown to help prevent some cancers.

Sweet, Luscious Snacks for Loved Ones
alentine’s Day naturally brings thoughts of hearts, flowers, sweetness and love. Because it also occurs during American Heart Month, it’s a perfect opportunity to start taking care of your own heart and the hearts of loved ones. Part of the charm of the day’s celebrations is in giving family and friends flavorful foods to enjoy from chocolates and candies to other sugary treats. However, the festivities don’t have to be completely focused on unhealthy bites in order to make someone feel special. This year, it can be easy to share in the fun of Valentine’s Day by serving those you love with sweet, seasonal treats. For example, these Frosted Watermelon Cutouts make for ideal snacks for children and adults alike whether it’s an after-school treat or a sweet dessert with just three ingredients, heart-shaped cookie cutters and minimal time spent in the kitchen. If you’re really looking to impress that special someone, this Watermelon and Chocolate Dessert Board calls for creativity and plenty of tasty morsels like berries, cashews, almonds and dark chocolate. Without any baking or cooking required, simply spread out the ingredients for a platter that’s just as visually appealing as it is appetizing. Both recipes include the benefits of watermelon, which boasts plenty of vitamin C to boost the immune system’s
defenses as a cholesterol-free, fat-free and sodium-free food. Plus, watermelon draws its red color from the powerful antioxidant lycopene (12.7 mg per serving), which may help protect cells from damage, and the healthy treat is American Heart Association Heart-Check Certified with just 80 calories per serving, making it the perfect centerpiece for Valentine’s Day recipes. Find more Valentine’s Day inspiration and recipes at watermelon.org.
Frosted Watermelon Cutouts 1 seedless watermelon, cut into 1/2-3/4-inch thick slices 4 brownie bites 1 cup frosting (any flavor) Using heart-shaped cookie cutters, cut shapes out of watermelon slices or simply use cut watermelon wedges, if desired. Top heart shapes with brownie bites and add frosting as desired. Watermelon and Chocolate Dessert Board Servings: 6-8 1/2 medium seedless watermelon, cut into wedges and cubes 1 cup fresh raspberries 1 cup fresh red cherries 1 cup strawberries, trimmed and halved 1/4 cup dried cranberries 1/3 cup roasted, salted cashews 1 cup chocolate covered almonds 1 bar dark chocolate, broken into squares 1 cup coconut chips mint leaves, for garnish On serving board, arrange watermelon in center and surround with raspberries, cherries, strawberries, cranberries, cashews, almonds, chocolate and coconut chips. Scatter mint leaves around board for garnish. (Family Features)

Apps You’ll App-reciate on Your Next Trip
rom planning your next getaway to managing your vacation budget, there are myriad apps you can use to make your trip a seamless, more enjoyable experience. Before planning your next trip, make sure you visit your preferred app store to download tools like these that can help with everything from planning to staying on track during the trip to looking back on your experiences when you return home. Map tools. While the most basic function of these apps is obvious, map apps are also useful tools to research the area you’re visiting, plan your routes ahead of time and find nearby essentials like gas stations and restaurants during your trip. Some apps also allow you to download offline maps so you don’t find yourself stranded if you’re going someplace where you’re likely to encounter poor signal strength. Discount rate finders: These apps make it simple to research and compare the best rates and deals for multiple aspects of your trip, often packaged for maximum cost-savings. For example, the Expedia app can be used to research and book everything from airfare and hotels to car rentals and activities. Once you’ve booked, these app makes it easy to keep track of your reservations
and itineraries. Airline resources: Even if you book your ticket through a third party, you can benefit from downloading the app for the airline you’ll be using. Nearly all airline apps include features that make it easier to make changes to your booking, check in, get a digital boarding pass, check your flight status and more. Additionally, most apps will alert you to any changes via push notifications. Vacation rental bookings: Many travelers are opting for vacation rentals over traditional hotels, in part because of the convenience and personal experience you can create. For example, the Vrbo app provides everything you need to book a vacation rental. As an added bonus, Trip Boards allow you to save, organize and compare your favorite properties. You can invite friends and family who will be traveling with you to discuss the trip using the new group chat feature and add and vote on their favorite properties to help narrow down the choices. Unit converters: Handy for international travel, these apps make it easy to compute and convert common units of measurement, such as currency and distance, and many even convert time zones for you. Having a unit converter app is especially im-

Most options allow you to categorize expenses by type and date, and some offer additional features such as splitting balances between friends and families or allowing you to set warning thresholds so you know when you’re getting close
to exceeding your budget. Payment solutions: Fees and structures may vary from one app to the next, but all are designed to make sending and receiving money more convenient.

Make Your Weight Loss Goals a Reality
osing weight is a highly personal journey as a wide range of factors can affect a person’s ability to do so. There’s no one approach to weight loss; rather, the best approach is the one that fits your life and body best. Get motivated to reach your weight loss goals with these expert tips. Set realistic goals. Most experts agree you shouldn’t lose more than 1-2 pounds per week. More rapid loss may shock your system, and chances are you’re depriving your body of important nutrients. More aggressive loss is also less likely to be permanent or sustainable; long-term results generally come with steady loss over a period of time. Eat well. Regardless what eating plan you choose, recognize the importance of nutrition in your weight loss program. Weight loss occurs when you burn more calories than you consume, so build your menu around nutrient-rich foods that fill you up. Strive for a well-balanced diet that encompasses all the food groups and, if necessary, discuss your goals with a doctor or nutritionist who can help you identify the best foods to enjoy and those to avoid. Consider a supplement. If managing cravings or your appetite hinders your
weight loss, a supplement may be a good solution. For example, RiduZone is a patented supplement that gives your body more of a substance it already creates called Oleoylethanolamide (OEA). In essence, OEA tells your brain you are full and it’s time to stop eating. Developed and endorsed by Dr. Jay Yepuri, a board-certified gastroenterologist, the supplement is a non-stimulant that may help you feel full faster to reduce caloric intake and boost metabolism to burn stored fat. Get active. Creating a calorie deficit is necessary to lose weight, and increasing your physical activity helps ensure you’re burning calories. However, getting active isn’t just about playing the numbers game. Physical activity also promotes overall wellness with numerous physical and mental health benefits, including improving circulation and stimulating feel-good endorphins. Stay committed. It’s easy to fall off your weight loss plan when unexpected circumstances arise. Give yourself a little grace and permission for occasional misses so you stay motivated to get back to your program. That may mean waiting for a cold to pass and doing less strenuous workouts at home or making extra healthy choices at mealtime in advance of an indulgent event.
To help make keeping your commitments easier, consider an option like RiduZone to boost your body’s natural appetite-curbing power. Find more information to help jumpstart your weight management program at TryRiduZone.com. What is OEA? Oleoylethanolamide (OEA) is a metabolite of oleic acid, a naturally produced substance that interacts with appetite-controlling receptors in the small intestine to signal the brain you are full. It also helps boost metabolism. However, as a result of food choices and excess body fat, naturally produced OEA may require supplementation to achieve the desired effect on appetite or body fat. Created to mimic this naturally occurring metabolite, RiduZone is the only weight management supplement that contains OEA as an ingredient. Its production has been reviewed and is accepted as safe by the Food and Drug Administration. Less fat A clinical study published in the “Journal of Lipid Research” shows higher blood levels of OEA, which is derived from oleic acid-rich olive oil, correlate to lower amounts of body fat. This means weight loss results

may be more visible. Fewer calories A prominent research study published in the journal “Food & Function” shows higher circulating levels of OEA can result in a significant reduction in calorie intake. Over time, OEA users become satisfied with smaller, healthier-sized portions. (Family Features)

Did You Know?
esearch indicates that people who laugh a lot are much healthier and may live longer than those who don’t find time to chuckle. A good, deep belly laugh can provide your body and mind with a great workout. Dr. Lee Berk at the Loma Linda School of Public Health in California found that laughing lowers levels of stress hormones and strengthens the immune system. The organization Laughter Works, which teaches people how and
D
why to laugh, says laughter can cause blood pressure to drop, blood to become oxygenated and endorphins to kick in, which can improve mood. And that’s just the beginning. Laughing can help reduce stress and promote stronger relationships between people who laugh together. Data indicates children around the age of six laugh the most, laughing roughly 300 times per day, while adults average only 15 to 100 laughs per day.
Did You Know?
aylight savings time, when clocks are moved forward one hour ahead in the spring and set back one hour in the fall, was initiated to save energy on artificial lighting and make better use of daylight. DST was implemented roughly 100 years ago, but conceived much earlier than that. Today DST is in use in more than 70 countries across the globe, affecting about one billion people every year. Despite the
well-intentioned purposes behind DST, little evidence exists to support DST as an effective means to saving energy. In 2016, DST will begin at 2:00 am on Sunday, March 13, and end at 2:00 am on Sunday, November 6, in the United States and Canada. However, Hawaii, most of Arizona, most of Saskatchewan, and some regions of British Colombia, Nunavut, Quebec, and Ontario will not observe DST.

Starting a Home Remodeling Project
7 Tips for Choosing a Qualified Contractor
O
utside of the home itself, remodeling is typically one of the largest investments you can make as a homeowner. While some projects can be tempting to tackle yourself, many larger-scale projects may require hiring a qualified professional. Because remodeling your home is a big undertaking, it’s important to take steps to ensure the professional you hire to perform the work is qualified to complete it to the highest standards of quality and integrity. Consider these tips from the experts at the National Association of the Remodeling Industry to help you make an informed decision when hiring a remodeling contractor. Get Recommendations. One of the best ways to find qualified, professional help is through word-of-mouth referrals. Ask your relatives, friends, neighbors or co-workers – particularly if they’ve recently renovated their own homes – if they have any previous experience with companies they would recommend. Also consider searching online for reviews of companies in your area. Stay Local. It’s often best to consider established local remodeling companies first, as they are typically more compelled to perform high-quality work, which allows their businesses to thrive and remain in the community. Local professionals are also likely to know permit requirements and building codes in your city or county, which can change from year to year. Follow Your Design Aesthetic.
Whether your home features a mid-century modern, contemporary or farmhouse design style, it’s critical to choose a remodeler who is knowledgeable in the construction and design of the style of your home. Additionally, a company that specializes in remodeling kitchens may not be suited for a bathroom or bedroom project. Ask for Licenses and Insurance. Many states, but not all, require contractors to be licensed, bonded and insured. Ask for copies of licenses and insurance certificates for any remodelers you’re considering to make sure they’re current. Most states also require contractors to carry worker’s compensation, property damage and personal liability insurance for their crews. Contact your state or local licensing agencies to ensure the contractor meets the minimum requirements. Check References. Once you’ve narrowed your list of potential contractors, ask for a list of references you can contact and a portfolio of work. A typical reference list includes 10 or more jobs with dates as well as the customer’s name, address and phone number, and a portfolio should also contain at least 10 projects with photos of the space before work began, during the project and after completion. If possible, also consider visiting a current job site to see first-hand how the contractor operates. Search for Violations or Complaints. Because you can’t always rely on a portfolio or references, it’s important to also check with your local consumer affairs office or the Better Business Bureau to ensure there are no

complaints on record for the contractors you’re considering, which may help further narrow your list. Compare Apples to Apples. While a number of different factors goes into every remodeling project, be sure all contractors you solicit bids from are using the same scope and quality of work requirements. Discuss any significant variations in price or timelines and be wary of any substantially lower estimates. Find more tips for selecting a contractor at remodelingdoneright.com. (Family Features)

Tips for a Stress-Free Tax Season
T
axes are an unavoidable fact of life. Unfortunately, they can be somewhat overwhelming, which can cause people to put the task off and miss the deadline. Use these tips for a stress-free tax season: Get It Over With The sooner you get your taxes filed, the sooner you can stop worrying about them. Early filing also means an earlier refund -- if you’re due one -- or time to plan to prepare to pay any owed taxes. To ensure it all happens on time, actually block out time in your calendar to sit down and work on your taxes. Be sure not to underestimate how much time is needed. If your situation has gotten more complicated over the last year, figure that into the equation. Check Your Work The last thing anybody wants to hear is that they are being audited.
You can avoid this anxiety by having the right tools on hand. Start by keeping your records filed in an organized way – both digitally and on paper with a filing cabinet that locks. As you do your taxes, it is a good idea to take your time, and do a practice run. A printing calculator is a good way to keep records of all necessary calculations. Be sure your printing calculator is up to the task. The two-color ink printer of Casio’s HR-170RC allows you to quickly see both positive and negative numbers to avoid reading errors, and its 12-digit LCD display showcases crisp, sharp numbers for easy viewing. A must-have tool for tax season, its functions include a grand total key, cost/sell/margin buttons, sign change, tax calculation, decimal selector and more. Maximize Your Refund While many people look forward to their tax refund and view it as a
