Cops N Rodders Car Event to Raise Money for Smiles for Margaret

by, Elsie Walker n Saturday, August 17th from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. (rain date August 18th ), The Dukes of Hazard Car, the Batmobile, a Don Prudhomme 1000HP Mustang Shelby and other specialty cars will be on display, while other vehicles vie for trophies. at the Lowes and Wendy’s Shopping Center at 219 Mountain Avenue in Hackettstown. It’s the 13th annual Cops N Rodders car show, a free admission event for spectators, with a 50/50 going to Smiles for Margaret, a foundation which helps families of children fighting cancer. Military trucks and emergency vehicles from Hackettstown and surrounding areas will also be on display; plus, there will be music, food and vendors selling a variety of items. Open to all years, makes, and models, there’s a $15 pre-registration fee for vehicles, $20 on the day of show. Questions about registration can be directed to Ed Barricella, president of Cops N Rodders of North Jersey at 973-945-5287. Recently, Barricella talked about what Cops N Rodders is, this year’s event, and the cause that will benefit from its 50/50. “Cops N Rodders started about 20 years ago,” said Barricella. He explained that early on, its members were from the military, state police, firefighters, etc. and not only liked cars, but most of them had hot rods, thus how the group got its name. Today, it includes not only those from its original member base, but also regular car

enthusiasts. “Last year, we had over 300 cars,” said Barricella when asked about how many cars are expected at the upcoming event. Trophies and awards will be given out, plus there will be door prizes. In the specialty car areas, besides those already named, will be a car from an episode of tv’s Street Outlaw, a Blue Sky Performance & Restoration car display, a Hillwick Trucking Custom Car and Truck display, and a Valhalla Restoration & Fabrication car display. Valhalla Restoration & Fabrication is also a sponsor of the event. Other sponsors include Johnson Dodge, Smith Motors, Autosport Chevrolet of Mt. Olive, and Callaremi Cadillac, Buick, GMC. A 50/50 will be held benefiting Smiles for Margaret. Hackettstown resident Margaret Walling was 12 years old when she died of a brain tumor. Originally, Walling had planned to pay it forward and help other families who had kids with cancer, just as she’d been helped. Now her wish to help others continues through the non-profit “Smiles for Margaret”. Barricella explained that when they were younger, some of Margaret’s friends used to have a Pink Ladies lemonade stand at the car event as a fundraiser for her organization. As the kids got older, the Cops N Rodders decided to jump in four years ago and made Smiles for Margaret the recipient of its 50/50, which goes to a good cause. Also, the car club knows the family,

Lake Hopatcong Foundation’s “Floating Classroom” Cruises Open to Public

By: Michele DiPasquale ven though summer is now in glorious full swing, most of us want to continue to learn and develop our awareness and education, especially about our local environment. And as luck would have it, the Lake Hopatcong Foundation is pleased to announce that the Floating Classroom Cruise is a fun and interesting learning experience while enjoying summer and keeping that local environmental awareness growing. “The public is invited to take a ride, conduct experiments, and learn about the Lake Hopatcong watershed,” shared Holly Odgers at the LHF. A forty-foot, covered Catamaran pontoon boat seating 40 passengers plus crew members will serve as one component of the LHF’s Lake Hopatcong edu-

cational field trip programs, and as an interactive classroom and learning center with scientific equipment right on board to promote a hands-on learning experience. Thanks to the generous support of FirstEnergy Foundation and Investors Foundation, and the purchase of the floating classroom which was made possible thanks to support from USA TODAY Network’s “A Community Thrives” program, the James P. Verhalen Family Foundation, and the Szigethy family, along with new microscopes from local Succasunna Company Zarbeco, and digital tablets to view the images, the Floating Classroom makes it easy and fun for passengers to view plankton samples and learn about the Lake Hopatcong watershed during the cruise. On board, guests enjoy a

hands-on adventure while gaining knowledge about Lake Hopatcong and taking part in experiments such as water clarity testing with Secchi disks, and collecting and studying phytoplankton from lake water samples. “With this new technology, passengers will be amazed at how clearly they can see the diversity of the plankton in the lake, which is critical to the stability of the ecosystem,” said LHF Grant and Program Director Donna Macalle-Holly. The Lake Hopatcong Foundation regularly holds events that help remove debris and trash from the lake and it’s watershed. The Floating Classroom lasts for 90 minutes and departs from the docks at Nolan’s Point, 37 Nolan’s Point Park Road, Lake Hopatcong, every Monday from July 8th until August 26 from 11 a.m.

to 12:30 p.m. Activities will be geared toward guests who are at least 10 years old, but younger guests are welcome to come aboard and join the cruise. Advance tickets are recommended, although walk-on guests are welcome as seating and space accords. Guests are encouraged to dress warmly, in layers, and wear sneakers. It is always much cooler on the lake than on land! The boat is covered to provide protection from

light weather, and life jackets are both provided and required. Tickets are priced at $18 for adults, $12 for children up to 17 years old, and $16 for seniors ages 65 and up. Reservations can be made at www.lakehopatcongfoundation.org/floatingclassroom or by calling the Lake Hopatcong Foundation office at 973-663-2500. Tickets are non-refundable unless the cruise is canceled by the Lake Hopatcong

Foundation due to severe weather or low attendance: If a minimum of 15 tickets is not sold for your selected cruise, the LHF will contact you to reschedule or refund your full purchase price. Cruise cancellations will be announced 24 hours before the scheduled cruise date. When you register, please notify the LHF if you will have a very small child or infant with you.

Warning...There is a Silent Killer Among Us

es, you read correctly, there is a silent killer among us almost everyday. It can be with you the very moment your alarm sounds in the morning and can follow you into your car while you’re driving. It can stay with you at your desk while working or even when picking your kids up from school. It can follow you around all day long and can even get into your bed with you at night. If you haven’t already guessed, the silent killer is stress. In fact, stress alone is linked to the six leading causes of death (Heart Disease, Cancer, Lung Disease, Accidents, Cirrhosis of the Liver and Suicide). Not only does stress affect your mood, but it actually causes physiological changes in the body. What does that actually mean? Let’s break it down and simplify this complex cascade of events: When confronted with a stressful situation, our bodies react involuntarily. The nervous system responds by releasing different stress hormones like Cortisol and Adrenaline, engaging the body’s “fight or flight” response. In ancient times, this was an advantage for survival when stresses included fleeing from wild animals that could eat you. So, this response was necessary for survival and could actually save your life. The “fight or flight” response causes your heart to beat faster, your blood pressure to rise, increases the rate of respiration and enhances

your senses. Unfortunately, this response still kicks in from stress that we experience everyday that may not be life threatening. Things like traffic, an angry boss or a family fight is much different than getting chased by a hungry bear, but our bodies involuntarily respond in the same way. Constant, repeated stress is detrimental to the body and can result in disease and even death. From an Acupuncture and Chinese medical perspective, stress causes an imbalance of energy in the body. In a healthy person, energy flows smoothly throughout the body. Healthy people experience different emotions everyday, which is a normal part of life. No one can escape being stressed, worried, angry or sad at certain times, but it is when these emotions are too intense or when they are prolonged over a long period of time that they disrupt the balance of energy within the body and become the cause of disease. This is especially true if the emotions are not expressed and are kept inside for a long period of time (a big no no!). Signs & symptoms of an overactive response to stress include: Anger, Anxiety, Asthma, Nausea, Depression, Depressed immune system, Digestive disorders, Headaches, Heart disease, High blood pressure, Insomnia, Joint pain, Palpitations, Panic Attacks, Shortness of breath and Weight prob-

lems. If you are someone who experiences any of the symptoms above or is simply just stressed out...there is hope! Acupuncture has been helping people to cope with stress for thousands of years. It can help to balance the mental and physical symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression. In addition, Acupuncture and Chinese medicine aims at treating the root cause of the issue. Best of all, it is a safe, effective and drug-free treatment! Here are some ways to help combat stress on a daily basis: 1.) Manage your stress with Acupuncture! Acupuncture helps to reduce stress hormones like Cortisol, relax muscle tension and helps restore the body’s balance so that your body calms down and even responds better to stress in the future. 2.) Get enough sleep! Try to get at least 8 hours of restful sleep. Our bodies handle stress much better when we are well rested. 3.) Start your day with meditation. You don’t have to be an expert yogi to meditate... but try a simple breathing exercise. Inhale slowly for 10 seconds, pause, then exhale slowly for 10 seconds. Repeat for 5-10 minutes each day. You can also play calming music to enhance relaxation during your meditation. Meditation calms the nerves, reduces

the release of stress hormones in your body and prevents adrenal exhaustion. 4.) Drink your stress away....with Green Tea this is! Green tea reduces cortisol, the hormone that your body releases in response to stress. 5.) Boost your mood with Diet & Exercise! Increasing your intake of leafy green veggies helps your body to stay healthy and deal with stress better. Daily exercise also helps to reduce cortisol levels and increases the levels of the “happy” chemicals in the brain. 6.) Beat Stress With Positive Thinking! Your conscious mind can help to control the way that your body responds to stressful situations. Instead of getting down on yourself, repeat affirmations like “I am fully capable of handling the obstacles that cross my path and nothing can stand in my way”. Repeating positive affirmations also reduces the levels of cortisol that are released from the adrenal glands. 7.) Write Your Stress Away. Writing in a journal can help you get out pent up emotions- relieving any built up tension. 8.) Have Fun! Do something you enjoy or watch a funny movie. Laughing releases the “feel good” chemicals in the brain. For more information on stress reduction and Acupuncture, call Mount Olive Acupuncture & Wellness 973.527.7978.

Local Professor Sees Paper Published

oday, many people no longer read traditional bound books, but read them on a digital device: a tablet, laptop or phone. For students, this could mean a great deal less to lug around a campus as one device can hold a great deal of material. For students attending online schools, it may mean not using physical books at all. However, is reading from a device the same as from a traditional book? Do people retain the information just as well? Four University of Phoenix faculty members have written a paper on the subject of digital comprehension and how to enhance it: “Strategies for Enhancing Digital Reading Comprehension”. That paper was recently recognized by the Association for the Advancement of Computing in Education (AACE) with publication and presentation at its 2019 Global Learn conference. One of the authors, Roxbury resident Elsie Walker, recently talked about the project, the recognition and the paper’s topic. “The paper was written by fellow faculty Myrene Magobo, Richard Kammerman, Shelley Gordon and myself. We did it as a project at the university. One of the challenges is that we live in four different states, for example Richard is in Colorado , so it was interesting to put this together long distance,” said Walker. Walker explained that the AACE, which accepted the paper, is an international organization involved in sharing information on using technology in education and e-learning research. This year, its annual conference was held in July in the United States: Princeton, New Jersey. “Myrene championed submitting our paper. It isn’t easy to get a paper published in the academic world, but Myrene was determined to see ours in print. Thus, it was perfect that Myrene was our presenter at

the July conference,” said Walker “The paper shares studies of reading comprehension differences between books read on digital devices, like tablets, verses regular paper books. Comprehension on digital devices wasn’t as strong, especially for students who had come from disadvantaged areas,” Walker said. The problem is that most people start out learning how to read and comprehend using a paper book. Walker explained that “the lay of the land’ is different between a physical book and a digital one. While the pages of a physical book are clearly defined, it can seem like the pages of a digital book just roll one into another. Having defined pages helps the mind to picture where a piece of information was located in a book and retain it. Along the same lines, online textbooks have ‘hyperlinks’, which means if someone wants to know more about a term, the text can ‘jump’ to that definition. Reading continuity may be lost,” she said. Walker added that another example of comprehension interference is multi-tasking. “It is so common today to be involved in a number of things on a device at once, that students don’t think anything of trying to multitask at the same time as reading. Thus, they are not ‘deep reading’ for comprehension.” Finally, many online readers may have the idea that since the material is “at their fingertip”, they don’t have to take notes on it, seeing it like everyday topics they just “google”. The paper goes into the techniques instructors can share with their students to increase digital comprehension, such as having an introduction on navigating an online textbook, providing a tip sheet on how to use tools within online textbook, such as highlighter, to aid in remembering material and having

students journal about what they’ve read or teach them how to take good notes. In addition to the current co-authored paper, Walker has had solo works previously published by the International Technology, Education and Development Conference: “When The Writing Gets Personal: Helping Students Write Through Trauma” (2017) and “Helping The Military And All Students To Succeed“ (2016).

Randolph Launches Economic Development Website

By: Danielle Incognito andolph launched an Economic Development website recently for the promotion of economic development in its community. It was created as a resource for business leaders and potential businesses to promote their businesses. In attracting and retaining business, the township can promote local, economic development. Furthermore, the township leaders who are made up of volunteers from different backgrounds can communicate directly with business owners and real estate agents to do business. The committee which launched it is one of the longest standing advisors to the township council. The website has a large amount of data and information, and its plan is to promote the economic climate in the area. It advertises community space including office, retail and development areas. The site also includes demographics, zoning information, as well as business news. Most importantly, the website acts as a liaison between the existing businesses and perspective clients along with identifying problems related to industry and commercial programs. It also recommends pro-business policies as well as programs and projects to the township council. The site boasts that, “The Township is a modern suburban community that offers many advantages to its residents and business owners. The dedication of our local government staff and the Randolph Economic Development Committee coupled with the Township’s enthusiasm

for a vibrant business culture makes Randolph not just a great place to live, but a great place to work and invest.” One of its accolades is that in 2013, Coldwell Banker listed Randolph as the number one ranked town in Morris County. Randolph is the 3rd largest Township within Morris County. Its 21 square mile boundary is home to a diverse population of just under 26,000 residents, according to the US Census American Community Survey. Some of its major industries include manufacturing, warehousing, educational services, health care, social assistance, recreation, as well as retail and administrative support. Business owners have raved about Randolph’s business industry. Shauna and Steve Colicchio (Business Owners of The Max Challenge of Randolph) posted on the website, “We decided that Randolph was for us because both of us grew up in a neighboring town and spent a lot of time here as children and young adults. As time went on, we always found our way to Randolph, where our doctor’s, favorite restaurants, parks and more are. We have always felt such a sense of community here and The Max Challenge provides that for our members.” Michael and Lunden Scheller (Astute Academies) posted, “We began this business five years ago and have since built our brand through word of mouth and referrals. After finding a wonderful client base in Randolph and the surrounding towns, we decided this would be the perfect

neighborhood for our first brick and mortar location.” The website was developed using a grant from the Morris County Economic Development Alliance. It will be managed

by the Randolph Planning and Zoning Department with the help of the township manager’s office and the EDC. The website can be accessed at www.randolphnjedc.com.

Randolph Education Foundation Celebrates 10 Years

By Henry M. Holden ounded in 2009, the Randolph Education Foundation (REF) was inspired by the idea that together, families, schools, and the local community, shape the education of its children. Since its founding, the REF has worked with the community to support innovative programs and aid to students in need in the Randolph schools. The REF has donated more than $300,000 to the Randolph Township School District in the form of grants, support to specific projects, and assistance to students. “The way we see it, we have three pillars of support,” said Paola Heinke, the new president-elect of REF. “The first pillar is Innovation. The innovation applies to all students. We want them to try and experiment with new things. We want people not to be afraid of trying something. We teach if you have an idea give it a try and see if it works. That is good for all students and teachers regardless of their background.” The second pillar is the School Readiness Component which addresses students in need. “We have several kinds of assistance. One of them is gift cards. I got a note from a single mom which still makes me tear up

when I read it. She said if it wasn’t for the gift card, she would not have had any gifts to give to her girls on Christmas Day.” “The Second Pair of Jeans program is a grassroots initiative that enables students with financial needs in our district to come to school ready to learn. Over the last 10 years we’ve provided more than $50,000 in gift cards to students in need during the holiday season.” The third pillar is Community Building. “Every year we have events that brings the community together. One is our Rock Star celebration and we co-host it with the Randolph Rotary. We select a person of the year to be the Randolph Rock Star for that year. It honors teachers of the year, and other community members who support education in Randolph. It is a great opportunity to celebrate students, teachers and community members who make a difference in the lives of Randolph youth.” Each year the REF hosts the “5K Rock N Run for Empanadas”. This year, on June 15, the event that commemorated the tenth-anniversary of the REF drew 534 runners/walkers and raised more than $26,000 to support the REF programs. Since its inception in 2003, the Next

Jersey Cares 2019 School Supply Drive

hroughout the summer months, Jersey Cares works alongside corporations, schools, and individual volunteers to prepare for the upcoming school year. Each year, thousands of New Jersey children attend their first day of school without basic educational tools such as backpacks, notebooks, and calculators, leaving these under-resourced students at a disadvantaged as they struggle to succeed academically. It can be extremely difficult for families to purchase new supplies year after year. With a goal to eliminate that struggle for families and students across New Jersey, Jersey Cares works to ensure that no child starts the school year off without the necessary supplies - bridging the gap between disadvantage and academic success. Volunteers are needed to help Jersey Cares reach their goal of donating 5,000 packed backpacks to schools, shelters, and community organizations

across the state. Donating is easy and can even be done from the comfort of your home through their Amazon Wish List or online with YouGiveGoods. The Jersey Cares School Supply Drive runs until August 21st. All donation can be delivered or shipped to their office in Livingston. If your office, club, or group of friends would like to host a collection drive, please visit the Jersey Cares website at www.jerseycares.org/School_Supply_ Drive for more information. Jersey Cares, a nonprofit organization, established in 1993, recruits and engages volunteers in rewarding, effective efforts that address community-identified needs. They partner with local nonprofits to identify needs and implement volunteer projects to meet these needs providing individuals, families, corporate employees and community groups with a wide variety of rewarding volunteer opportunities.

Randolph Education... continued from page 8 tion Committee appointed by the REF. Cara Gilligan, Eighth Grade Science Teacher from Randolph Middle School (RMS), and Kristen Miller, Second Grade Teacher from Center Grove Elementary School, were the recipients of a Next Practices Grant. These grants provide second through eighth graders the opportunity to learn through innovative, hands-on experiences inside and outside of the classroom. Clean Water Anyone? and Trout in the Classroom, are projects implemented two years ago due to a generous NPG grant. “It enabled students to further their understanding of water quality in their township and county,” said Gilligan. “This grant will enhance our students’ ability to make real life connections with their local ecosystems as well as develop their skills to use lab equipment prior to entering high school.” Gilligan’s proposal, “Trout in the Classroom,” received $1,210 to offer more than 400 eighth graders in RMS the opportunity to learn about the importance of cold water conservation, through a science-based program focused in the process of raising Brook Trout, the official state fish of New Jersey, from eggs to fingerling size for release.

“As students witness and study the growth of the trout, they will work to identify a clean, safe cold-water source in Randolph Township to release the trout in the spring,” said Gilligan. “This year-long project incorporates many areas of learning and will develop student, team and teacher relationships as all involved work towards a common goal.” This year, the REF awarded two one-year scholarships of $1,500 each to high school seniors who are in the first generation of their family to pursue post-secondary education. In honor of the Randolph Education Foundation’s 10th Anniversary, five onetime scholarships were offered by the Dr. Anthony Fusco family to encourage and support students who are pursuing a degree in a health-related field such as Medicine, Dentistry, or Nursing. The scholarship will pay up to $1,000 after all other financial aid and scholarship awards are considered. In addition, a one-time scholarship was offered by Douglas Electrical Components to encourage and support students who are pursuing a degree in engineering at a 4-year college or university. The scholarship will pay up to $5,000 after all other financial aid and scholarship awards are considered.

Sussex County Technological School Engineering Team Awarded “First Honorable Mention” at Prestigious International Submarine Contest

By: Elise Phillips Margulis n 2001 Sussex County Technological School’s engineering class began building human-powered submarines to race in the International Submarine Races (ISR) at the Naval Surface Warfare Center in Maryland. Students spend a year constructing the submarine from “scratch.” Professor Christopher Land, a former officer on a nuclear powered submarine in the Navy, reached out to ISR eighteen years ago when his students approached him asking if they could participate in a group project. He had wanted to integrate a “Senior Project” into the curriculum of his Engineering program so the timing was perfect. The students suggested a variety of projects and the ISR competition seemed to be the most interesting and challenging. Initially it was held in Florida. When Land read that the competition was in the ocean he didn’t think it would be safe. “I remember saying to the students ‘Let me get this straight. You want me to go to the

Board of Education and get permission to design and build a human-powered submarine, let one of you get in it, and release you into the ocean? I don’t think so!’” The next week the competition was moved to a pool at the Naval Base and Land signed up his team. The Seniors designed a submarine and shared the plans with Juniors who would need to construct and present it the following year because the competition is every other year. Land said that the Juniors “proceeded to rip the design apart.” Fortunately, after working out some issues, the Juniors were able to build Umptysquatch 1, Sussex Tech’s first human-powered submarine. The unusual submarine name, Umptysquatch, comes from Land’s use of that word during physics lectures. Umptysquatch’s meaning is similar to “thingamajig.” He said that when he was in the Navy people used the term when they couldn’t think of a particular word. Land objected cont. on page 14

Six Ways To Help Prevent Bullying

utting an end to bullying is everyone’s responsibility. Whether at home, school or elsewhere, it’s important that we’re proactive. Here are five ways that kids and parents can do their part. 1. Don’t be a bystander. It’s true that it takes a lot of courage to stand out from the crowd and defend a victim of bullying. After all, the risk is that you’ll become the next target simply for speaking up. But reporting bullying and being there for someone who needs it are actions you’ll be proud of for the rest of your life. 2. Stop sibling bullying at home. You may think it’s harmless, but it’s not. Disdainful eye rolling, relentless teasing, humiliating taunts, hitting and verbal abuse directed at a sibling can cause depression and anxiety. Make sure your home is a safe place for everybody who lives there. 3. Enlist the help of adults. If you see a need for increased adult supervision at high-risk times and places at school or at home, ask for help from a trusted adult. 4. Get on board with an anti-bullying campaign at school. These campaigns show kids that bullying is not cool and won’t be tolerated any longer. Make an anti-bullying banner and use social me-

dia to advertise the fact that you stand up against verbal and physical violence. 5. Parents: get involved. If your child is a victim of bullying, you need to take the situation seriously. Schools, the police and child psychology experts vigorously object to the belief that bullying is a childhood rite of passage. If the problem doesn’t stop, talk to the school authorities, and then to the police if there are no further improvements. At home, be vigilant about sibling bullying, and make it stop. 6. Pay attention to cyberbullying. Those who use cell phones, internet or other devices for social media interaction open themselves up to the latest form of bullying. Parents, be aware and get involved. Teach your child proper usage of these devices and reinforce that sending any text, message or photo that is cruel, hateful or threatening is as harmful as face to face bullying. Learn about the internet and pay attention to what your child is doing online. All users should be taught cyberethics and the law to prevent cyberbullying. Don’t be a victim. Don’t be a cyberbully. Bullying is no longer seen as a normal rite of passage for children; it’s a preventable behaviour that we can eradicate through education, awareness and action.

Sussex County Techno... continued from page 12 when his students chose that name, but the Juniors refused to change it. The unique name turned out to be good for publicity and their story was picked up by national news. Land reported that the Diving Supervisor at the competition had a lot of fun with the name of the team. “During our performance at ISR-7 the Diving Supervisor refused to refer to them as Umptysquatch. He preferred the following monikers: ‘Umptyscratch,’ ‘Humpty squash,’ ‘Always Crash,’ and ‘Sasquatch.’ “ Each competition’s submarine team is comprised of up to 30 Junior and Senior members. The process begins on day one of school. The first task is for the students to decide if they want to pursue innovation or speed because prior teams discovered that there isn’t time for both. Once the concept is conceived, the team divides up into design groups: propulsion, hull, steering and diving, safety, etc. The design phase normally concludes around at the end of December. Manufacturing of the design then lasts from January to May. The final phase of the project is testing the submarine in the YMCA pool. Bill lamia, CEO of the Randolph YMCA, welcomes the students to their facility to test their submarines. He is delighted to help the students train for the competition. “The YMCA supports all opportunities for individuals to learn and grow and thrive. We were thrilled at the chance to support the students and their challenge to design, build and race a human-powered submarine. It is a remarkable program and I commend the Foundation for Underwater Research Education for providing the opportu-

nity for all the young men and women that participated.” Teams create a one- or two-person “wet” submarine for the competition and use scuba equipment to breathe the air in the submarine as they navigate over an underwater course. The submarines entered in the race are all different because each is made by separate teams and incorporate a variety of new techniques to guide and propel the structure. Dennis Santos of Elite Scuba, the company that lends the students their scuba gear and certifies them in scuba, said he’s proud to be involved in the project. “It’s a wonderful program that gives the kids an opportunity to learn a unique and diverse set of skills - Engineering, Physics, Chemistry & Physiology are all incorporated into Mr. Land’s program and the Scuba certification training they take part in. We are always happy to support Mr. Land, Sussex Tech & their submariners!” Umptysquatch competed against around 20 other schools, mostly engineering universities and colleges from around the world. Only three high schools presented at ISR-15. The students gain remarkable experience because they use the information they’ve learned to work hands on as a team and problem solve as they design and build the submarines. Awards are given for “Use of composite materials”, “Best Spirit of the Races”, “Innovation” and “Best use of Technology.” Sussex Tech won First Honorable Mention for Innovation for their use of integral buoyancy tanks and their Automated Buoyancy Control System.

Land said that Sussex’s team has won many times before but it’s the work they put into the submarine that’s important. “We have won various awards in the past, nearly all of the ones listed above at different times during different races. As I tell the students during the project, ‘We just want to be in the picture with the other 20 or so international teams. Only 20 teams in the world take on this monumental design/build engineering challenge. The fact that we are there competing at that level makes us all winners.’”

Gum Disease and Your Health

um Disease, also known as Periodontal Disease, affects many people without them even knowing it. The dental office is not a favorite place for most individuals, but taking care of your oral health is important. Not doing so can lead to inflammation, infection, tooth loss, and systemic problems. Let’s investigate this a little further. Its obvious to most people that if you don’t brush and floss, teeth are susceptible to cavities. If a cavity gets too large, its going to need a root canal or possibly extraction. What’s not so obvious is that bacteria can build up at the base of the teeth, or even underneath the gums, and start causing inflammation. Your gums become red and puffy, and probably also bleed. You’ve most likely heard of plaque. Plaque is the gooey stuff that builds up from not brushing or flossing, or not brushing or flossing effectively. Over time, the plaque can become hard and stick to your teeth: this is known as tartar or calculus. Bone supports your teeth and holds them in place. Bone doesn’t like calculus. It will recede away from the calculus, and you won’t feel this, because its hidden under the gums. Think of your tooth like an iceberg: 2/3 of it you can’t see, but its

“large and looming.” By the time you feel the problems (loose teeth, sore gums), it might be too late, and you might have to have one or more teeth extracted. Over the last number of years, Periodontal Disease has been tied to a number of systemic problems. Gum Disease is inflammation, and inflammation has come to the forefront of available information to the public as to how destructive is can be to the human body. The effects of Periodontal Disease can spread throughout your body

and make you sick. Many health conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes, Alzheimer’s Disease, respiratory disease, kidney disease, osteoporosis, and even cancer have been linked to Periodontal Disease. For additional information, a good source is the American Academy of Periodontology (www.Perio. org). For the person with severely advanced gum disease who must have all of their remaining teeth removed, dental implants

oftentimes are one viable solution. On a regular basis, these patients are referred to my office by their dentist or find me based on their own research. All-On-Four® is the most common implant solution where we can provide non-removable teeth in one appointment, but there are a number of other solutions. It is important to understand dental implants should not be placed in the presence of active gum disease, however.

Natural Solutions for Going Gray with Style

ray hair is a natural side effect of aging. The rate at which hair will turn to gray differs based on genetics and other factors. Some people may go gray seemingly overnight, while others may gray at the temples first before the rest of their hair gradually changes color. Aging women often wonder if they should cover up their gray hair or embrace the silver. Going gray is no longer something that has women running to their stylists at the sight of the first gray strand. Some actually opt for silver even before their own gray sets in. According to a 2017 survey of hair trends by L’Oréal Professional, 28 percent of women embraced or considered opting for silver hair. The trend has continued to gain steam. Celebrities like Jamie Lee Curtis and Helen Mirren were some of the first to embrace their grays. Younger celebrities like Kendall Jenner, Pink and Lady Gaga have opted for silver tresses to make a statement. But there are still many women who prefer to transition gradually or avoid the

harsh chemicals in some hair products. The National Cancer Institute states that more than 5,000 different chemicals are used in hair dye products, some of which are reported to be carcinogenic in animals. There are many natural ingredients that can add tint to hair to make gray less visible. Coffee, for example, can cover grays and add dimension to dark tresses. Chamomile tea is recommended for blonds to add natural highlights and perhaps camouflage their grays. Calendula, marigold, rosehips, and hibiscus can deepen red shades or add some subtle red highlights. Henna also is a popular natural method to add a red-orange color to hair. Creating highlights to offset gray hair can work as well. Spraying lemon juice on hair and sitting in the sun can produce lightening effects. Many women are seeking natural options to look their best. Embracing grays or creating subtle tints with natural ingredients can help women feel confident and beautiful.

Giving Homes a Face Lift: Magnolia Home Remodeling Group Does it All

By, Dawn M Chiossi home is much more than a house. It is much more than four walls, a foundation, and rooms. Much more than just a place to eat and flop down for the night, homes are often an extension of the people who live in them. At their best, homes can be a place for family dinners, a place to binge-watch favorite shows, a hub for sociability, or just a comforting oasis away from the world. Homes are an investment, literally and figuratively. It is often said that people do not own their homes-their homes own them. Even though the saying is often uttered off the cuff, there is a nugget of truth in it. The best homes give off good vibes. Everyone strives to make their home be a place of comfort, a place that is both restful and pretty. They aim to make their home a place where they can enjoy their solitude as well as the company of others. It is a fact that, invariably with time, homes will deteriorate. As every homeowner knows, there will be wear and tear on them; they will need improvements, renovations, and refurbishments. In time, people may decide to do a home makeover, or even make improvements to sell it. In all of these instances, their homes will need a kind of face lift. When this happens, people need to put their house and home into the hands of

trusted professionals to rejuvenate it for whatever purpose they need. Magnolia Home Remodeling Group is just such a business. Founded in 1995, Magnolia Home Remodeling Group is a New Jersey Home Remodeling & Home Improvement Contractor. Located at 1640 Vauxhall Rd in Union Township, these hard workers seek to help their customers make their home its best. Whether customers would like their homes to go the nip and tuck route, or seek to have a showstopper of a home, Magnolia Homes strives to make them as pretty as a magnolia and several times as strong. Serving areas in Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Morris, Passaic, Somerset, Sussex, Union, and Warren counties, Magnolia Home can do it all. They specialize in both interior and exterior remodeling in the New Jersey area. With over 25 years of industry experience, they are a licensed New Jersey Home Improvement Contractor. This family owned business was founded by brothers-inlaw and partners, Vic Fiore and Chris Fontana. For this close-knit staff, family pride and reputation is everything. At Magnolia Home Remodeling Group, they take pride in their work as well as their business. Fully insured and licensed, Magnolia Home Remodeling is a full-service

business. They specialize in installing vinyl siding, roofing, and windows, as well as kitchen, bathroom, and basement remodeling. They also offer porch remodeling, decks, masonry, patios, additions, levels and more. Additionally, they offer a variety of affordable product choices to fit any budget. They facilitate affordable, no-hassle financing to help their customers. They also offer custom options to cap off the look of the home to make it unique to homeowners. Offering the best in customer service, Magnolia Home seeks to make their customers feel comfortable and satisfied with their progress throughout the home projects. They stress communication, workmanship, professionalism and so much more. According to Fiore, “We describe this business as family owned and operated. I chose to work in this industry because I enjoy working with people. Every home project is so different that it makes every day new and exciting,” he says. The same sentiment is echoed by Fontana, “I didn’t want to be stuck behind a desk all day, I wanted to work with people. They have their own personalities and the work is different every day.” It’s all paramount at Magnolia Home. They ask that all homeowners be present at the consultation so everyone is on the same page, and will

have confidence in Magnolia and the job they are doing with their home. “We give the personal touch to each job,” Fontana says, “We sit down with everyone so that nothing gets lost in translation. We are always available for our customers.” Knowing that a home improvement job can be scary for their clients, Fontana explains that they strive to make their customer’s experience a positive one. “That includes taking pride in the level of workmanship and transparency, having a real relationship with the customers and making sure that the customers have trust in the project,” he tells. “The customers in turn, appreciate what we do.” For the owners of this family contracting business, having respect, professionalism, and consistency is key. Not only for their customers, but to build a stellar reputation as well. For them, it is all in the details. Even something as simple as cleaning up when the job is finished creates a positive and lasting impression on homeowners. With consistent five-star ratings, Magnolia Home Remodeling Group has even been named a Super Service Award Winner for several years running from Angie’s List. They have many repeat customers as well. The reason for that lies in their customer service and desire to make homeowners happy.

When a question needs answering, or someone has a concern, it is guaranteed that they will speak to an owner. “I’d use them again,” is something people say over and over again. Magnolia Home Remodeling Group fervently believes in giving back to the community as well. The company was even featured on TV’s George to the Rescue on April 27th, when they lent more than a hand to Union County’s Munt Family. The family suffered a terrible tragedy on Thanksgiving in 2017 when husband and father, 46-year-old Alex Munt passed away suddenly from a heart attack. The community quickly rallied around the family doing all they could to help, and that included George to the Rescue and Magnolia Home Remodeling Group. They jumped right in to help the family with their home improvements by giving the house a total makeover. Magnolia Home not only donated construction supplies and labor for the project, they were the lead contractor as well. “We are proud to be able to do this,” Fontana enthuses. “To take the worry and the risk out of a job for our clients. It is an honor.” Fontana mentions they have also worked on projects for the Make A Wish Foundation and in South Jersey helping a disabled child. They also work on a regular

basis with police, firemen, and first responders to use their talents and skills to make their lives a little better. That’s what it’s all about for the owners of Magnolia Home. Perhaps nothing demonstrates this more than a memory Fontana shares. “There was a widow whose husband had just recently passed. Her house needed work, and her money was understandably tight. She had been suspicious and hesitant to work with us at first because she’d had a bad experience with another contractor.” Undaunted, Magnolia Home Remodeling set out to help. “We worked with her,” Fontana explains. “Starting out, she had been very affected by her previous experience. We understood that, took everything into consideration, and went above and beyond to change it for her.” Check them out on Yelp, Angie’s List, Better Business Bureau, or their list of references. Taking pride in their family and business reputation, Magnolia Home Remodeling Group puts their heart in customer’s homes. Giving homes the face lift they deserve; they make homes as beautiful as their name implies.

15-Year-Old Roxbury Resident Graduates Summa Cum Laude from CCM

high school level and enrolling him in the Challenger Program. As a result, he finished eighth grade as he also completed his high school education through homeschooling. Then in the fall of 2018, he became a fulltime student at CCM. This coming fall, he will begin working on his bachelor’s degree with the goal of becoming a doctor specializing in an area such as anesthesiology or neurology. As a student at CCM, Corrente explains he always was treated like any other student and his age was never an issue. In fact, he felt such a part of the college community that he got involved in several extracurricular activities at the school, including serving as vice president of Alpha Mu Gamma, the national foreign language honor society. He also became a member of the National Society of Leadership and Success, an honor society that helps college students to achieve their goals, and was elected a member of the Phi Theta Kappa honor society based on his academic success.

hen Paul Michael Corrente Jr. was in fifth grade, his mother received a phone call from his teacher encouraging her to find a way to address her son’s high ability for learning. His mother’s answer was to enroll him in the Challenger Program at County College of Morris (CCM). Now at the age of 15, Corrente joined the Class of 2019 at CCM, graduating summa cum laude, with a 3.973 grade point average on a scale of 4.0. On Friday, May 24, he was awarded his Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts and Sciences at the college’s 50th Commencement Ceremony at Mennen Arena. “I just wanted a chance to prove myself. I needed to be challenged,” says Corrente about the decision to attend CCM as a Challenger student. The Challenger Program at CCM provides high school students with the opportunity to take college courses and earn credit toward a degree. Given his need for more educational enrichment, his mother began supplementing his learning, homeschooling him at the

Although learning tends to come easily for him, Corrente says he also made it a point to take advantage of the support services CCM provides, such as its Tutoring Center and faculty office hours. As he views it, success is a choice. “You choose to go to class, you choose to do the work, and you choose to get involved,” he says. “By making the right choices, you learn how to adapt and function successfully in the real world.” He and his parents settled on CCM not only because it is close to his home, but also based on its reputation, says Corrente. What he also found were professors who

truly care about the success of their students and small class sizes that allowed him to get to know his teachers and develop friendships with other students. “You’re not just a number in a classroom,” says Corrente. “The professors are amazing and they teach in a way that raises you to their level. The students also help one another because everyone wants one another to succeed. It’s a really positive environment.” To learn about the Challenger Program and other offerings for high school students at CCM, visit www.ccm.edu/admissions/ apply/programs-for-high-school-students/.

The Humane Rescue Alliance and St. Hubert’s Animal Welfare Center Announce Merger

he Humane Rescue Alliance of Washington, DC, and St. Hubert’s Animal Welfare Center of Madison, announced that the organizations are merging to create the first regional, community-based, multi-state animal welfare organization in the nation. The combined group will provide direct rescue and care of animals in need, cruelty investigations and local animal control services, robust regional community support programs that allow pets to stay with their families, and a premier transport program that invests in partner communities to solve pet overpopulation sustainably and nationwide. The merger will leverage and export the strengths of its founding organizations, which rest on the professional competence of their staffs and the depths of their roots in their communities. Lisa LaFontaine, President and CEO of the Humane Rescue Alliance and a nationally-recognized leader in animal welfare, will lead the combined organization as President and CEO. “By unifying two industry-leading organizations, we are building an alliance that can tackle the systemic challenges facing animals in our region and beyond, with the goal of

saving more lives,” said LaFontaine. In 2016, LaFontaine oversaw the merger of the Washington Humane Society and Washington Animal Rescue League, resulting in the formation of the Humane Rescue Alliance – the first unified organization in a major urban area to provide all the animal welfare programs and services to the community. “The merger of WHS and WARL was never a final destination. Rather, it was an expression of the imperative that animal welfare organizations must work more collaboratively, and rather than compete, they should share a sense of responsibility for the overall population of vulnerable animals,” LaFontaine added. “The future of animal welfare is about cooperation, consolidation, a deepening of community support, and the sensible balancing of resources and animal populations between partnering animal welfare groups.” St. Hubert’s WayStation program has emerged as a bestin-class animal transport program, creating unprecedented collaboration among shelter organizations to address animal population disparities between communities, and to provide a critical lifeline in times of natural and manmade

disasters. The combined organization will invest further in the WayStation program and will continue to connect communities that have extra capacity for placing and caring for homeless animals with communities where animal overpopulation remains a significant problem. The WayStation program is a vehicle for animal welfare groups to increase their collective capacity to address the challenges facing people and animals in their respective communities. According to LaFontaine, “By enriching the organizations on both ends of animal transports, we can weave a safety net for animals in every corner of the country. Today is a happy day for HRA, St. Hubert’s, and our 83 partner organizations throughout the nation.” The merger was initiated by conversations between LaFontaine and Heather Cammisa, the long-time CEO of St. Hubert’s whose vision and dedication enabled the organization to become a regional powerhouse. It has been approved by unanimous votes of both the HRA and St. Hubert’s boards of directors, and the organizations have been working at the leadership level for the past several months to lay the groundwork for a smooth and efficient combination.

75th Anniversary of Gift from Morristown Jewish Center Beit Yisrael During World War II

orristown, NJ – On November 14, 1944, five months after D-Day, June 6, 1944, when more than 160,000 Allied troops landed on the beaches of Normandy France to fight Nazi Germany, and six months before Nazi Germany’s May 1945 surrender to the Allies, the Morristown Jewish Center Beit Yisrael donated to Morristown National Historical Park (NHP) a high chest purported to have John Hancock provenance. The gift was a thank-you to the nation for its support of the Jewish community during the Second World War. Fundraising by the Morristown Jewish Center Beit Yisrael (MJCBY) began during the height of the war, and the exchange was facilitated by Israel Sack, a famous Lithuanian-born, New York City based antiques dealer. For the 75th anniversary of the donation, Morristown NHP and the MJCBY are pleased to recall and reflect upon the mutually supportive relationships that existed within the Morristown community during the difficult times this nation faced

throughout the Second World War. In addition to its John Hancock provenance, the high chest displays stunning craftsmanship. It is constructed of maple and pine, with a mahogany stain, and is made from two separate pieces that fit into each other. The high chest’s feet are in the Queen Anne style, a decorative element popular between 1725 and 1750. In storage for the last thirty-five years, the high chest is now back on display until the end of 2019 on the second floor of the historic Ford Mansion. The chest can only be seen during guided tours of the Ford Mansion. All tours of the Ford Mansion begin in Morristown NHP’s Washington’s Headquarters Museum. The tour schedule is available at www.nps.gov/morr/ planyourvisit/hours.htm. For additional information about the tours, call Wednesday-Sunday, 973-539-2016 x 210. For additional information about the high chest, contact Jude Pfister at jude_pfister@nps. gov.

Seeing Eye Unveils $7.6 Million Renovation

By Jason Cohen non-profit organization that provides specially bred and trained dogs to guide people who are blind recently unveiled a $7.6 million renovation. On June 13, The Seeing Eye held a dedication ceremony for the newly completed Robert H. Harris Canine Pavilion on its Washington Valley Campus in Morris Township. The state-of-the-art kennel upgrade took approximately 18 months to complete. The Golden Dome Foundation, a Middletown based 501(c)3 non-profit organization, donated $2 million in memory of its founder, Dr. Robert H. Harris. Harris is the late husband of the organization’s President, Mary Ellen Harris. The Harris’ created the foundation in 2015, to support charitable causes. Dogs at The Seeing Eye campus were previously housed in two separate buildings, one that had become outdated. The new structure combines the living quarters, and gives all dogs direct access to covered all-weather exercise areas. The facility was designed to be open and airy, allow for an abundance of natural light, state-of-the-art

ventilation and air exchange systems, heated floors, newly designed dog grooming and food prep areas and much more. When creating the new space, research was done that specifically was aimed at increasing stimulation and a sense of well-being, making the dogs feel more comfortable, and improving the success of the overall program. Peggy Gibbon, director of canine development at the Seeing Eye, feels the renovation will benefit the dogs and the staff. “The kennel is great,” Gibbon said. “We’re very excited to have this new facility. I think it’s going to be a great living quarters and a nice place for the staff to work.” She told the Morristown News that residents and elected officials praised the organization for the recent upgrade. “I think the community has been very positive about it and happy to see the new facilities,” Gibbon said. The Seeing Eye was founded in 1929 and allows blind people to experience enhanced mobility and independence and to retain their active lifestyles despite blindness. The Seeing Eye is a 501(c) 3 non-profit supported by contributions from individuals, cor-

Honor History... continued from page 28 looking back in time, there are many ways you can honor and develop a deeper understanding of history. It’s just a matter of finding the method that fits your interests best. Visit a museum or historical monument. These locations are rife with information, and often artifacts, that bring the past to life. You can find museums for all types of topics and interests, some with broad information about an event or subject and others that tell a story from a particular vantage point. Monuments offer a similar glimpse at the past, but they generally serve as physical markers of a particular place or event. This means you can stand exactly where the nation’s forefathers stood as they fought for liberation from British soldiers or take in the same sights as the pioneers who ventured west along a wagon trail. Explore written accounts of history. Historical books lend a diverse perspective on history, from factual accounts of times and places to personal narratives that let you experience exceptional moments through the eyes of someone who was there. For example, “Sacred Duty: A Soldier’s Tour at Arlington National Cemetery” from publisher Harper Collins paints an inspiring portrait of Arlington National Cemetery’s elite Old Guard unit, as well as telling the story of U.S. Senator Tom Cotton’s time as a platoon leader there. America’s oldest active-duty regiment, dating back to 1784, The Old Guard conducts daily military honor funerals on the 624 rolling acres of Arlington. Readers have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the honor and the challenges of duty at the

nation’s most sacred shrine. Learn more or order online at HarperCollins.com. Let elders tell their tales. Though much of recent history is heavily documented, there’s no comparison to hearing firsthand how a person felt and thought as those historical moments unfolded. War stories, memories of childhood, tales from the first time driving a car – these are all experiences that looked very different a generation or two ago. Use special occasions and family gatherings to encourage the elders in your life to tell their stories and make notes or record those memories to cherish years into the future. Research your family tree. No history is as personally relevant as your family tree. Your ancestors hold the answers to exactly why you look like you do, and maybe even why you act certain ways. Online services make it easy to begin piecing together relations that date back generations. Visit a cemetery. You may think of a trip to a cemetery as purely a chance to pay your respects to the departed. While visiting grave sites of loved ones you’ve lost and leaving flowers or other trinkets are common practices, you can also learn a great deal from a cemetery. Looking for surnames you recognize may alert you to members of your family tree you never knew or seeing dates etched in the stones may help you piece together bits of family history. Digging into the past may be entertaining, insightful, inspiring or all of the above. You may be surprised by all you can uncover once you get started. (Family Features)
