Scan QR Code L ocal author and his- torian, Robert Jones, has just released his fifth book on Americas Civil War. His first release in 2007 was The Civil War Canteen and three years later it was followed up with a second edition. Loaded with photographs and descriptions, it covers just about every type of canteen used by the Civil War sol- dier both North and South during the period of 1861 - 1865. This was followed by Battle of Gettysburg The Relics, Artifacts, & Souvenirs, which was a first of its kind. Thousands of books have been done on the Civil War; some say that excluding religion, it is the most written about subject in history. Gettysburg was the largest and costliest bat- tle of the Civil War, and has always been one of the lead- ing topics, but nothing was written about the relics and artifacts which were recov- ered from the battlefield, or the pieces from the early museums, or those brought home by returning veterans. This book not only covers those items, but also the unique souvenirs from the late 19th century, right up until todays examples over 725 photographs. Anxious to get todays youth more involved in American history, Mr. Jones published his first childrens book titled Children at the Battle of Gettysburg Their Local Author Releases Fifth Book on the Civil War Unforgettable Summer. The story is fictional, but based on actual events just prior to and through the 1863 Pennsylvania battle. He says It lets children learn about Gettysburg and the Civil War in a fun and excit- ing way without even realiz- ing it. The gory details of war were purposely avoided and the kids today can almost find themselves directly in the middle of probably the most earth- shattering part of Americas history. His last project was Civil War Artillery A Pictorial Introduction. It lets the reader take a trip through time beginning with the infancy of artillery during the American Revolution until the final shots of the Civil War were fired at Appomattox, Virginia in 1865. There is a mix of ord- nance and battlefields, along with the personal experiences and fears many of the men had to face while serving on the crew of a cannon. With over 500 pho- tographs, (many previously unpublished), one gets a real feel what it was like in the artillery during the Civil War. Now in the midst of the 150th anniversary of the Civil War, Mr. Jones felt this was the ideal time to release his latest book The Civil War Soldier His Personal Items. He states that The personal objects left behind by the Civil War soldier are small windows which allow us to get a brief glimpse into the most momentous part of his life. When I came across an item to use in this book, (what we might consider today as trivial), I tried to figure out why it was so important to him. In todays world of dis- posable goods, who would take the time to meticulous- ly inscribe their name or ini- tials in such an inanimate object as a razor or soap dish? We may think it was done to prove ownership, maybe it could identify him if killed or wounded, or maybe it was just out of Robert Jones continued on page 4 Page 2, August 2014, Tell Them You Saw It In The Musconetcong News Like us on facebook www.facebook.com/mypaperonline H opatcong residents Bill and Christian Brunner of the Puppy Tails 4-H Dog Seeing Eye Club received high honors at the Morris County 4-H Fair, held on July 17-20 at Chubb Park, Chester.

Some of these scenarios might be true, but I think it was much more than that. He knew the war would be scrupulously studied by future generations. Many of these veterans carefully packed away their menial possessions as a personal time cap- sule, hoping that someone in the future would discover them and if only for a brief moment, remember their small part in American History. This book took me almost two years to complete, in part because I kept coming across additional items to include which I felt were pertinent to telling the story. I was fortunate to have Mr. William Chemerka write the Foreword; an author, actor, histo- rian and lifelong New Jersey educator (often commentating on the History Channel and C-Span). There are few people who know more about Americas history. There are almost 600 photos in this 151 page book and it also has a full index. About the Author: Mr. Jones is a lifelong resident of New Jersey, originally from the Passaic area but now residing in Stanhope for many years. He is an Army veteran, having served with the artillery in the 101st Airborne Division in Vietnam. Over the years, Robert has been well known for his displays and exhibits throughout New Jersey, including such places as The Newark Museum, The New Jersey Historical Society, Fosterfields Living Historical Farm, Cooper Grist Mill, and numerous other locations throughout the state. In 2003 he was in the movie Gods and Generals during some of the First Manassas and Chancellorsville scenes. He has written several articles for The North/South Trader Civil War magazine and has contributed and been acknowledged in several Civil War related books. Some of these works involve New Jersey history, such as Drummer Boy Local Author... continued from front page Willie McGee, Civil War Hero and Fraud, by Thomas Fox and The Mutinous Regiment, by John G. Zinn. He is the past President and member of the 33rd New Jersey Volunteer Infantry, a reenacting group which represents the original New Jersey unit which served with distinction during the Civil War. Mr. Jones will be doing a book signing and Civil War exhibit and display at the end of August at the Manassas Museum in Virginia. It is described as the Civil War event that transformed a sleepy railroad junction into a thriving camp and then a devastated landscape. He will also be sign- ing his books at Gettysburg in November.

Current inventories are at dangerously low levels and less than half a day supply is avail- able for NJ hospitals and patients. Summer collections are usually slower than normal but this year the State Health Department is reporting a 12% reduction in collections from last year state wide. This has created a deple- tion of readily available blood products for hospitals and trauma centers. Our first major objective is to make sure the blood is ready when patients are in need and given our cur- rent inventory levels, we are urging the pub- lic to respond stated Tina Ilao, President and CEO for the blood center. Demand continues to outpace collections and BCNJ is asking the public for their help in replenishing the cur- rent blood supply. Anyone 17 years or older, in general good health and who has not donat- ed in the past 56 days are asked to consider blood donation at this time. The Blood Center of New Jersey requests that you visit their web site at www.bloodnj.org to find a donation site nearest you. In addition, dona- tion centers are located in Parsippany and West Orange to help with your donation. Blood center officials note that each unit of blood donated is broken down into several components including platelets, plasma, and red cells, so one donation can save up to three lives. The donation process is safe and simple. Donors are first asked medical history ques- tions and given a mini-health check, includ- ing pulse, blood pressure, and iron level. The actual donation of blood takes just 5 to 7 min- utes, and then the donor is given a snack and juice. The entire process generally takes under one hour. Donors will receive a free cholesterol screening. 16 year olds can donate with a consent form signed by accompanying parent/guardian, weight 120 pounds and be in general good health. There is no upper age limit for donors provided they meet health requirements. Donors should bring a signed or picture form of identification and know their S.S. #. Please eat a meal one hour before donating and drink plenty of water. For those who have recently traveled out- side of the United States and for other eligi- bility questions, please call the blood center at 973-676-4700, ext. 132. If you require any additional information, please call 1-800-652-5663, during regular business hours. Blood Supply Dangerously Low Page 6, August 2014, Tell Them You Saw It In The Musconetcong News Like us on facebook www.facebook.com/mypaperonline By Jane Primerano A lthough Crescent Cove and River Styx present tough problems for the Lake Hopatcong Commissions weed harvesters, Hopatcong Mayor Sylvia Petillo says the borough is not receiving any more complaints from residents of those areas having difficulty launching boats. Now were getting complaints from the main lake, Petillo said. While the combination of the 5-foot drawdown over the off season and a persist- ent freeze all winter kept weed growth down, the shallow areas still saw persistent growth. One of the two small weed har- vesters owned by the Lake Hopatcong Commission would expedite the process, but neither is operational because parts needed for repairs were stolen in transit, according to Dan Bello of the state Division of Parks and Forestry. The four large weed harvesters are work- ing the lake, bringing out about 27 cubic yards a day, Bello said. Harvesting started on June 6 and 800 tons of weeds were in by July 18. Two barges take the weeds from the harvesters to the shore where they are trucked to a landfill in Morris County. Bellos said a large percentage of the weeds were from the River Styx and Crescent Cove area. A late start in 2013 resulted in only 270 tons harvested by July 18. The small harvesters should be on the water by mid-month. One is designated for Lake Musconetcong. The Commission agreed to loan the Lake Musconetcong Planning Board a small har- vester to help with severe weed-control problems in that small, shallow, man-made lake. In return for that agreement, the state Department of Environmental Protection granted the commission $40,000 toward the weed program. Lake Musconetcong has one large harvester that isnt efficient in the shallowest areas. The large harvesters have a 24-inch draft and the small ones have a 12-inch draft. The state also chipped in another $10,000 for repairs, Ellis said. Commissioner Dan McCarthy said he considers the loan to the Lake Musconetcong Regional Planning Board a pilot project to be reevaluated at the end of the season. Several members of the Lake Tough Problems for Lake Hopatcong Commissions Weed Harvesters Commission were initially skeptical of the loan of the harvester and asked about alter- natives at several commission meetings. Ellis explained it would cost $60 million to dredge Lake Musconetcong. Mark Gruber of Hopatcong asked why chemicals arent used on the weeds. Chemicals are not appropriate, Kerry Kirk-Pflugh, DEP representative to the commission, said. Killed weeds create fer- tile ground for re-growth. Weed-eating sterile grass carp are only allowed in bodies of water 10 acres or less, continued on next page Like us on facebook www.facebook.com/mypaperonline Tell Them You Saw It In The Musconetcong News, August 2014, Page 7 Lubnow said, He said the state is afraid they will damage the eco-system. He said the weeds are particularly bad this year because it has been several years since the commis- sion has been able to afford a comprehen- sive harvesting program. However, septic management in Jefferson Township for the past three years has helped the health of the lake in general. Weed harvesting started on Memorial Day weekend this year. One of the large weed harvesters was taken to Neptune City on Monday, May 19, to assist in the removal of 250 million pounds of bunker fish that died in the Snake River. Other state and commercial har- vesters are also working on the fish kill, Kerry Kirk-Pflugh, the state Department of Environmental Protection representative to the Lake Hopatcong Commission said. After the fish kills was cleaned up, the har- vester was sanitized before being brought to the lake, Park Superintendent Steve Ellis said. Bellos last report to the lake commis- sion detailed the areas harvested: from the north side of Bertrands Island to Sharps Rock and the Landing Channel, King Cove, Crescent Cove and River Styx. The two big harvesters were anchored in Ashley Cove and will work from there toward Brady Bridge. The Liffy Island area must be hand-har- vested because of the presence of water chestnuts which can be spread with the automated harvesters, Bello said. Residents have expressed concerns that the harvesters may kill fish, but Bello said few fish are actually caught in the harvester. Dan McCarthy of the Lake Commission said he rode the harvester a few years ago and saw fish scramble away. Sometimes when a fish gets caught, the operator will reverse the belt to free the fish. Park Superintendent Steve Ellis said the lack of oxygen in places where herbicides were applied can kill fish. The State Park website now has a page with contact information and other details about the harvest, Ellis said.

Foodstock 2014, organized by Sound of Humanity, Roxbury Recreation, and Roxbury Arts Alliance will take place at Horseshoe Lake Park, Roxbury, NJ, on August 30, from 11 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. For less than $10 the cost of four 16 ounce cans of food a family of four can help New Jersey residents who dont have enough to eat and hear eight different bands that are donating their time and talents to support this event, said Larry Salomon who heads Sound of Humanity. All of the canned goods that will be collected will go directly to the Community FoodBank of New Jersey, which has over 1,000 partner organizations through- out the state of NJ. Community FoodBank of New Jersey (CFBNJ) distributes more than 40 million pounds of food a year, helping feed more than 900,000 hungry people in the state. Every day, we see hard-working families, struggling seniors and vulnerable children who face hunger, said Julia Kathan, Director of Public Relations and Communications for CFBNJ. Our latest numbers show that there are more than 39,000 people in Morris Country alone including nearly 16,000 chil- dren who dont always know where their next meal is coming from. In some cases, the neighbors who are hav- ing difficulties feeding their families are working, and might not qualify for most forms of public assistance. We recently met a Morris County mother who, like her husband, has a job but cant make ends meet as they try to raise their two young daughters. This womans eyes filled with tears at a local food pantry. She told us, Its simple. Food helps us live, said Kathan. Among the bands that have volunteered to play for Foodstock 2014 are Matt Mead Band (Elizabeth, NJ), The Bent Benjamins (West Chester, PA), and Under a Ton (Roxbury, NJ). Each of these bands will play music that every member of the family can enjoy, said Salomon. Additionally, there will be food vendors on hand so you can buy lunch for the family without having to miss a single note. A few activities for younger kids will also be available, at an extra cost, if your children want to do something else during the festi- val. This event is made possible by the gener- ous support of local businesses: Aires Jewelers, D Lovenbergs Portable Toilet Rentals, Kuiken Brothers, Merry Musicians, PanAVid, The Powder Bar, and ShopRite.

Its the annual Netcong Day. The action starts at 10:30am on Maple Avenue with participants competing in a 5K run which will take them around Lake Musconetcong. From 11am to 5pm, Main Street will be filled with ven- dors, booths, music and family fun. About 4,000 people attend each year, making this a standout event which is held rain or shine. The 5K race is a U.S. Track and Field certified event. Netcong Mayor Joe Nametko said that the race brings in people from throughout the tri-state area and those who have participated have commented that is so picturesque running around Lake Musconetcong. The major shared the race draws in a variety of participants at a number of levels. For example, last years female winner could not accept her award because she was part of a NCAA sanctioned team. There are people doing less than 6 minute miles. In contrast, the mayor said that you can see families run with kids in a carriage. There are moms, dad, and kids who walk or run. Information on registering for the race can be found on the town website at www.netcong.org Theres so much to do: shop at vendor stands, there will be demonstrations like the one done by a karate group, two DJs.. shared Nametko as he started to list the types of things that will be at the Street Fair part of the day. He emphasized the family oriented fun of the day and noted that Netcong Day is held the first weekend after school starts, when families are trying to get out and do something together. Among the booths there will be a silent auction booth run by the Stanhope United Methodist Church. Trustee president, Amanda Rush, of Netcong, shared that pro- ceeds from the auction will go toward the churchs operating expenses and to its Raise the Roof fund. The latter is being used to raise money to fix the louvers on the historic church. Netcong resident Sharon Rosequist will be helping to run the booth of the North Jersey Triple Crown pageant (part of the Miss America system) which will be manned by its current titleholders and Samantha Ruzzuto of Long Valley, the Spectators watch as participants come in from last year's 5k run.

It is Cooks Appleton Productions of Long Valley that has brought the event, known as the worlds biggest 50s party, to life for 32 years. Each year theres something differ- ent for spectators to enjoy. Meanwhile, it keeps true to its theme: celebrating the innocence and fun of the 1950s with cars, music, B movies and dance. This year from Wednesday, August 27 through Sunday, Aug. 31st the parking lots of the Parsippany Hilton on Route 10 will turn back the hands of time welcoming 1,800 classic cars, plus inside having a variety of bands and doo wop groups, sock hops, and more. So whats new this year? Mr. Joe Jangles is a one man performer who hails from Detroit. Cook saw him as a street performer in Texas and knew he wanted Jangles for Lead East. Mr. Joe Jangles, a real one-man band, will be strolling around and performing during this year's Lead East. Lead East Brings the 1950s to Parsippany I love this guy! said Cook. Cook shared that people will see Jangle everywhere from Friday Sunday. Something that Cook has long wanted for Lead East is a Caribbean steel drum band. This year, Lead East has one, in the person of Mustafa Alexander from Brooklyn. Alexander will be playing in the hotel lobby atrium on Saturday and Sunday from 9 11:30am. Teaching the Shag will be Tony and Suzy Eldrith of North Carolina. Shag is similar to the jitterbug, but a little more complicated. It is big in the South, shared Cook. Shag lessons will be given on Friday and Saturday. The showing of B movies at a drive-in in the Hilton parking lot is a Lead East tra- dition. There will be three B Godzillia movies shown this year. However, it is the first time Lead East is showing a Korean Godzilla movie. Cook shared that it has Godzilla dancing to rock and roll. There will be a variety of vendors and a chance to be an early Santa. Food, toys, collectibles, and automotive-themed items and more will be on sale. Also, the Military Transport Association will be set up among the outside vendors in front of the Hilton, collecting unwrapped toys for Toys for Tots. All toy donations collected will be delivered to the US Marine Reserve Unit at Picatinny Arsenal. They will be distributed during the holiday season to needy children in the North Jersey area. .Of course, Lead Easts roots is cars..and there will be plenty of them. People from about 22 states will make the trip to the Hilton to show their cars and help add to the 50s atmosphere. Cook has long said that Lead East is a family event and that is evident by the people who join in the tradition year after year and those just dis- covering it for the first time.

Gail was studying for confirmation. That sim- ple sibling moment of sharing would plant a seed that would grow into a calling and eventually lead Zaremba to what she is today: the new pastor of Stanhope United Methodist Church in Netcong. My sister, Gail, was my greatest mentor, shared Zaremba. She said that her sister had a very good spirit her whole life. Gail was very involved in church and led her sister into that. It was in her 20s that Zaremba got her calling to be a pastor; however, it would be much later that the calling would be realized. She worked for Burgdorf Realtors, where shed spend 38 years before entering the ministry. At Burgdorf, she has worked as a secretary, relator, and then did financials. She went from selling to a desk job so that she could be by the phone in case her son, Anthony, needed her. Her late son, Anthony, was born disabled. She recalled that after his birth, her life became running from the hospi- tal to the doctor. You dont have the time [for much else], she shared. Tending to her sons needs, she put her wants and needs in the background Time was tight and the family had got away from going to church. However, nine years after Anthony, a daughter, Amy, was born. Later, getting Amy in Sunday School, was the impetus that got Lynn back in church. The pastor of that church liked to give everyone responsibilities. One of the jobs Lynn got was doing a Bible exploration section of Vacation Bible School. Zaremba said, It was a refreshing, renewal. Then, she was encouraged to be a layspeaker, but since she had no childcare for her son, couldnt do it. When Amy got old enough, she babysat her brother and Lynn was able to substitute for area United Methodist pastors by deliver- ing the Sunday message. The first time I preached, I was sold, she said. That decision, the calling from my 20s, was there. She just had to make it happen. Now, as of July, she is the new pastor at Stanhope United Methodist Church. It is her first pastorate. Reflecting on the journey her life has taken, Zarembra shared two lessons taught to her by her children. My son taught me how to care for people and love unconditionally, she said of Anthony who died three years ago. My daughter (Amy, now 21) taught me how to live again, she shared. Given her journey, it is not surprising that pastoral care is important. Its my number one thing. Bring them Gods truth in a way that is understandable, she said. Zaremba also sees as a strength the business background that she brings to the church. She believes it is true for everyone when she says, You can see how carefully He [God] has planned your path. Her birthday sign is Aquarius and there seems to be no Lynn Zaremba is the new pastor at Stanhope United Methodist Church. The New Face at Stanhope United Methodist Church coincidence it that. She is the self-proclaimed water queen of her family. She loves swimming, anything that gets her near the water. Even washing dishes, she smiled. In addition, Zaremba loves family gatherings, spending time with friends, sewing and is addicted to doing jigsaw puzzles. She also wants to find out more about her new location. [Im ] looking forward to meeting the people of this community, learning about this community and becom- ing a part of the community, she shared.

More than 250 guests enjoyed the food and festivities, making it the best attended Food for Thought fundraiser in recent history. Honorees at the this years event were Senator Anthony Bucco, who shared openly about his familys experience supporting a disabled loved one, and his ongoing efforts to improve and protect the lives of those dealing with mental and physical challenges.

A special performance by the Mental Health Players gave the audience a glimpse of the challenges that mental illness presents to friends and family. Lou Schwarcz, President and CEO of the MHAMC, inspired the audience with his fervent words, thanking everyone for their tremendous support, but also challenging them to become more aware of the plight of those served by his organization, saying, By helping people in our county move from homelessness to housing, from fear to dignity, from coldness to warmth, and from disenfranchisement to the claiming of property, we need a sustained community effort. Celebrating the Angels Among Us, was the overarch- ing theme of Food for Thought this year, and there were no shortage of angels helping MHAMC. We all agreed that angel is a perfect metaphor for the many community members, volunteers and staff that make our good work possible, said Barb Flynn, MHAMC Director of Development. This event would not be possible without the generous support of our sponsors, the restau- rants and stores that provided such great food and bever- ages, and everyone who had a hand in making this years Food for Thought such a successful fundraiser. We want to thank our honorees, sponsors and the local restaurants that contributed their delicious food and bever- ages, Flynn continued. Special thanks to our sponsors Novartis, Eddys Total Auto Care, Furniture House, Atlantic Health System, Michele J.

Selected for that exhibition is his painting As One, an imaginative transparent combination of male and female nudes. The Wills Creek Survey is a juried art exhibition open to contemporary visual artists from across the United States. This years exhibition takes place September 13 October 10 at the Saville Gallery, 9 N. Centre Street, Cumberland, MD. More than $5,000 in awards will be pre- sented to artists during the Opening Reception and Awards Ceremony on September 13.

Four of his paintings also were chosen for the annual juried Westmoreland Art Nationals, which took place in July. Those entries consisted of a series of paintings of tele- phone poles, titled After the Storm, Evening Fog with Telephone Pole, Evening Pole Silhouettes and Telephone Pole at Sunset. A consistent award-winner, Gwynne has gained wide recognition for his paintings including Best in Show at the Westmoreland Art Nationals. Gwynne joined the CCM faculty in 1972.

Sodium nitrite and sodium nitrate are widely used as preservatives, antimicrobial agents, colorings, and flavorings in cured meats and many other products. Nitrates and nitrites are commonly found in hot dogs and lunch meats. Once they are consumed, nitrates turn into nitrites in the digestive sys- tem, and it is believed that nitrites react with certain bodily chemicals and turn into cancer-causing carcinogens known as nitrosamines. Green, leafy vegetables and root vegeta- bles contain naturally occurring nitrites as well. However, it is believed that nitrites in vegetables do not have the same effect on the body as artifically added ones, so the benefits of eating vegetables outweigh these risks. But avoiding nitrites does not mean people have to give up their favorite foods. Many types of bacon, hot dogs, bologna, and other foods now come in nitrite-free varieties, which is possible byusing salt, vinegar and sugar rather than sodium nitrite to cure the meat.

Expires 9/30/14 Back to school By John Johnson J obs in health care are growing fast. In fact, the health care and social services industry is projected to add more than 5,000 jobs in Morris County between 2010 and 2020, according to the New Jersey Department of Labor. With this growth, many local health care facilities are looking to fill positions, but they need qualified appli- cants. In order to fill these vacancies, people need to be trained and certified. But what happens if someone is unable to afford tuition for training courses or make future loan payments? Since 2011, County College of Morris (CCM) has helped individuals start a career in health care by providing no-cost training through the Health Professions Pathways Grant. This grant was developed specifically to help recipi- ents of Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), General Assistance or other low-income individuals who qualify, by reducing financial and other barriers to educa- tion and training in a wide-range of health care occupations. The Pathways Program is literally changing lives. To date, more than 300 students have participated in the grant program at CCM. Students have told us that they went from a job they hated to a career they love. Many have said they would not have been able to obtain this training with- out the program because they never would have been able to afford tuition. CCM recognizes that the cost of tuition is not the only financial barrier for many individuals in their pursuit of education and job training. In addition, funding for related expenses, such as transportation, tutoring, books, uniforms, study guides, exam and license fees and even child care may be provided through subsidies. We understand the challenges of making a change and work to help applicants and students through the process. The college has specially trained staff to assist individuals along the way, from determining whether they are eligible to selecting courses and finding jobs. We have regular pre- application information sessions at CCMs main campus that are free to attend. Classes and on-site training are held at CCM, Morris County School of Technology, Morristown Medical Center and at Saint Clares Hospital. CCM offers training for a wide range of health care jobs from Certified Nursing Assistants and Home Health Aides to Certified Medical Coding, Billing Specialists and Dental Radiographic Technicians. Programs vary in length from three weeks up to a year, depending on the field of study. To inform people about the program, CCM is working with nonprofits, health care facilities and other local resources. Our employer partnerships are key to helping our students find employment opportunities. Local hospitals, long-term care facilities, and local medical practice groups know CCM and the top level training we provide, so they have come to expect that the students certified through the Pathways Grant program will be successful members of their staff. We know that people in Morris County impacted by the economic downturn or other circumstances need help find- ing good jobs, so the Pathways Grant Program, offered through the Northern NJ Health Professions Consortium (NNJHPC), is an important piece of addressing these needs. Consortiums like the NNJHPC are a model for how com- munity colleges can work together to better identify eco- nomic growth areas, form partnerships with local employ- ers, assist applicants with the training necessary to become employable within the health care industry. Our participa- tion in the consortium has allowed us to be an integral local resource by expanding our reach across northern New Jersey to partner with county, state, federal and various human services organizations. We are an intermediary between available jobs and our students who want to pursue or improve their careers. In its Ready to Work report, the Obama Administration noted they will work with leaders in [high growth] industries to promote partnerships between educa- tion and workforce institutions in order to create training programs that help Americans succeed in these growing fields. CCM is doing just that right here in Morris County and the Pathways Grant is allowing us to help others pursue their dreams. There are still many grants available.

The college also recognized CCM instructors and staff, St. Clares Hospital and community part- ners during a special recognition ceremony on CCMs campus. Congratulations to our students who are here with us tonight, many of whom were impacted by the economic downturn, on their great accomplishment, said John Johnson, Site Coordinator for the Northern New Jersey Health Professions Pathways Grant program. Your purpose, drive and determination have helped you complete the program and will help make a better life for you, your families and communities. Dr. Earl Johnson, Director of the Office of Family Assistance within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families also addressed the students, saying, Your success is our success. This is a special moment for you and for our country because we can guarantee that you will be there to help people in their hour of need. This program is not only about jobs, its about you helping to make this country healthier and stronger and raising you and your families up. The grant program helps low-income individuals receive no-cost health care education and training by elimi- nating the roadblocks that would otherwise reduce access to these opportunities. CCM offers more than 10 different health care training programs throughout the year, which vary in length from three weeks up to a year, depending on the field of study. To date, more than 300 students have complet- ed their training through the grant program at CCM. The program really changed my life, said Nancy Williams, who became a licensed practical nurse through the pro- gram. I always wanted to be a nurse and I was able to go to school, get a grant and not have to pay back a loan. And now Im doing what I always wanted to do. I have two nursing jobs in geriatrics and pediatrics, and I love it. Samantha LasSalandra said, This pro- gram has changed my life completely. I was at a job that I hated and now Im at a career that I love. Everyone involved was com- pletely driven to help me succeed. Dr. Edward Yaw, President of County College of Morris added, We are delighted to be part of this multi-county effort to help increase access to education and certifica- tion training in high demand healthcare areas. We are grateful to our instructors and County College of Morris Honors Student Grant Program Recipients Starting New Careers in Health Care John Johnson, Site Coordinator for the Northern New Jersey Health Professions Pathways Grant program with students who completed various healthcare training programs at CCM during the July 8th recognition ceremony held on CCMs campus. partners who make this program a success, and hope that we can continue to change lives through this program. This is about bridging the gap for the generations of people who do not feel con- nected to the workforce or to the American Dream, Dr. Johnson concluded. Our stu- dents have been through a lot, and it has taken a lot for them to get here. As gradu- ates, they provide hope to others, because now they know that there are opportunities available that can help make a better life for themselves and their families. Thank you to our students for having the guts and deter- mination to succeed in this program. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families (OFA) administers several key federal grant programs, includ- ing the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program, the Healthy Marriage and Responsible Fatherhood grants program, and the Health Profession Opportunity Grants (HPOG) program.

Drizzle mixture with cold water until mixture is moist and holds together. Roll out on floured surface to at least 1/16th of an inch thickness. Using 3-by-5-inch index (recipe) card for template, cut into sixteen 3-by-5-inch shapes. Re-rolling works fine. In middle of eight shapes, smear 1/2 heaping teaspoon peanut butter and heaping teaspoon of jam on top. Be careful not to go to edges. Using fingers, wet edges with water and place another piece of pastry on top. Press all sides well, and using fork press all edges to secure. Using fork, gently poke tops in four places so steam can escape. Place inch apart on parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 1314 minutes until starting to brown around edges. Cool on rack. Whisk together drizzle of choice in small bowl. Drizzle over cooled tarts. Note: This pastry is very user-friendly and delicate. Freeze tarts up to one month and defrost at room temperature before serving.

Help is available for parents, teachers, and speech- language pathologists at most public libraries in the form of a DVD designed to help school-age children who stutter. Some libraries have an older video version. It's meant to give speech-language pathologists the tools they need to deal with stuttering in this age group, but it also offers good ideas for parents and teachers," said Professor Peter Ramig of the University of Colorado at Boulder. Ramig is one of five nationally recognized experts appearing in the DVD produced by the nonprofit Stuttering Foundation. The DVD features students from first through sixth grade, some of whom talk about their experiences with stuttering. They talk openly about the teas- ing they face from classmates and how their stuttering sometimes makes them feel about themselves. "We focus on demonstrating a variety of therapy strategies that are appro- priate in working with children who stut- ter," adds Ramig. He appears in the DVD along with speech-language pathologists Barry Guitar, Ph.D., of the University of Vermont, Hugo H. Gregory, Ph.D., and June Campbell, M.A., of Northwestern University, and Patricia Zebrowski, P.D., of the University of Iowa. These five experts answer questions about stuttering, refute myths and misconceptions, and present examples of therapy sessions showing how stuttering can be reduced. More than three million Americans stutter, yet stuttering remains misunderstood by most people," said Jane Fraser, president of the Stuttering Foundation. "Myths such as believing peo- ple who stutter are less intelligent or suffer from psychological problems still persist despite research refuting these erroneous beliefs." The 38-minute DVD, entitled Therapy in Action: The School-age Child Who Stutters, produced by the 67-year-old nonprofit Stuttering Foundation is available free of charge to public libraries nation- wide. Other libraries that will shelve it can contact the Foundation at 1-800-992-9392, e-mail info@stutteringhelp.org, or visit www.stutteringhelp.org or www.tartar- mudez.org.

A word to the wise is usually unnecessary. RUDYARD KIPLING REVISED: "If you can fill each unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the world and everything that's in it, And a heart attack before you're fifty-one." Politics is the modern American art of getting money from the rich and votes from the poor by promising to insu- late each group from the greedy, self-serving goals of the other. Roseanne Barr and others like her exhibit a touch of crass. Too many cooks tend to make far more dirty pots and pans than does one cook who is working without assistance. Few things spotlight the illogic of American politics more clearly than the selection of our Vice presidential can- didates. After millions of dollars are spent in primary elec- tions, the choice of our second-in-command is left, entirely and arbitrarily, in the hands of the successful candidate, with no input whatever from the electorate. Why not, one wonders, bestow that honor on the second choice of the nominee's party? This would seem to be a better idea than anointing the hand-picked, politically expedient and often Chips Off The Old Klock feckless nominee of the front runner. How come words of wisdom are so often in conflict? E.g., "Haste makes waste" and "He who hesitates is lost." Query concerning a respected old saying: If beauty is, in fact, only skin deep, just what are we looking for: Glamorous guts? Cute kidneys? Lovely livers? Why do my children's birthdays make me feel older than my own do? Tell me how come we tend to be so apprehensive about tearing off those "Do Not Remove" tags from new pillows, blankets and mattresses? Like, what's the worst they can do to us if we get caught in the act or are later ratted out by a hostile bedmate? You can succeed as a parent by simply making your children feel safe, guided, wanted, loved and worthwhile. Most of the other merit badges and demerits are likely to befall you accidentally. Give your pets and your kids everything they want and you'll probably end up with good pets and troublesome kids.. Always leave people you love with warm words each and every time you part company with them; it might well be the last time you'll ever see them in this world. Rather frequently, people who say that something can't be done are interrupted by other people who are actually doing it. Leisure, praise and rewards are best enjoyed when they have been really earned. By and large, as long as you feel reasonably good, older tends to be more gratifying than younger. Have you ever noticed that the things you love to do are the things that you do best? It makes little or no sense to expect that our children will listen to our advice and ignore the conflicting examples we set for them. The best way to enjoy your children is to love them for what they are, rather than thinking about what you'd like them to be or what they might have become. A good goal in life is to be all that you can be that you WANT to be; chances are slim-to-none-that you'll ever be more than that. Most people really want advice for the same reason that drunks want lampposts - for support, rather than for illumi- nation. Most people who are fond of saying that money isn't everything usually have more than enough of it.

Exploring the intriguing stories behind each of the book's 30 Jewish fabric craft projects from throughout the United States and Israel, the authors redis- covered many of the Jewish traditions underlying hand- made fabric crafts. Members of the Temple Hatikvah Sisterhood will retrace the steps the authors took on the way to this spiritual awak- ening on Sunday, Sept. 7, at 9:45 a.m., at the Sisterhood Membership Kickoff Breakfast, at the synagogue, 58 Pleasant Hill Road, in Flanders. The Sisterhood Membership Kickoff Breakfast is free and open to the pub- lic. In a special talk, titled "Jewish Threads: Crafting a Jewish Life," the authors will discuss the spiritual journey they took in writing the book and the Jewish traditions that suffuse these crafts. Jewish cultural heritage will come to life through the stories of these fine handcrafted pieces. As part of this special event, attendees will have a chance to hand-sew Feelie Hearts for grieving children. These small, stuffed fleece hearts, which are given to chil- dren who have suffered a terrible loss, are donated to organ- izations both in the United States and in Israel. Deep-rooted, spiritual inspirations and religious convic- tions about life and death, peace and war, birth, marriage, healing, family life, holidays, new beginnings, and how those beliefs influence the work of fabric artists--all are interwoven into the fabric of "Jewish Threads," which takes readers on a journey of sacred creativity. The book presents an array of fabric craft projects, plus the backstory behind each of the pieces featured in the book--how and why they Authors to Speak at Temple Hatikvah Sisterhood Membership Kickoff Breakfast were made and what sparked the idea for each one. Among the projects spotlighted in the book are tallitot (Jewish prayer shawls) and Torah mantles, shulchan (lectern) covers for the synagogue, Purim puppets, a knit seder plate, an apples & honey Rosh Hashanah challah cover, a ChanuCats quilt for Chanukah, and many more. A section titled "Inspirations" includes stories of five more projects that inspired the authors to write the book, including a quilted chuppah (Jewish wedding canopy), cre- ated collaboratively by members of National Council of Jewish Women, West Morris Section, of which Drew serves as co-president. Grayson, a prize-winning former daily newspaper reporter and magazine writer, writes books for young adults. Says Drew, an award-winning writer and book editor, " 'Jewish Threads' brings together the disparate threads of my own life--Judaism and Jewish observance, sewing and knit- ting, writing and editing--while stitching together the inspiring stories of fabric artists from throughout the United States and Israel. Collectively, these personal stories, and the projects that spring from them, form a patchwork of modern-day Jewish life. The part introductions, written by Robert Grayson, place these crafts in historical perspective, with tales from the Jewish tradition that give these fabric crafts added resonance today."

Historic District House Tour: A Walk through Time Like us on facebook www.facebook.com/mypaperonline Tell Them You Saw It In The Musconetcong News, August 2014, Page 29 by Michele Guttenberger T homas Edison could also be called the founding father of modern day insomnia. The electric light bulb has changed mankinds sleeping habits forever. We are no longer influenced by natures schedule but our own regulated sleeping schedule. Edison took advantage of his own new manmade daylight schedule to become a well known insomniac. But, he was not alone in his insomnia. Recently discovered records show the unimaginable work timetable he had with his team of 7 lab assistants that fol- lowed his same condensed sleeping schedule. They jokingly called themselves The Insomnia Squad. They were a group of driven experimenters Edison selected in 1912. They reached the hallmark of project commitment when they intently worked for five weeks both day and night to arrive at a solution Edison was obsessed in finding. His focus was on the Diamond Disc record. There was a million dollar inventory of phonographs sitting in ware- houses but no records for them. He was in a predicament because there were still bugs to be worked out in the man- ufacturing process of the Diamond Disc record before it could be brought to market. Edison was known for his insomnia but never to this extent where it continued for weeks on end accompanied with a team. His wife Mina would check up on him when his laboratory work called him away from his home life for too long a period. This kept him from falling into extreme sleep deprivation and physical neglect. She even placed a bed in the lab library so he could get some bed rest. However, Mina was not there to control this notorious 1912 insomnia marathon. Mina had unexpectedly rushed to Akron, Ohio, to tend to her dying mother. This allowed Edison to continue his work without any regulated controls in his sleeping schedule and also driving his team to work around the clock along with him. Thomas Edison never slept a long restful night. If he was intent on a project, his schedule was to work on it until he was tired and then he'd lie down to sleep. He claimed that when he awoke from these short sleeping intervals he was refreshed and ready for work. Mostly, Edison believed in the 15 minute cat naps that he often did seating at his lab desk chair. Napping in a sitting position at the office desk made it hard for his employees to tell if their boss was deep in thought or napping. Edison said he personally enjoyed working 18 hours with short catnaps each day and an aver- age of four to five hours of sleep per night. According to Edison Most people overeat 100 percent, and oversleep 100 percent, because they like it. That extra 100 percent makes them unhealthy and inefficient." Most of Edisons team were enthusiastic about their work and felt honored working on these revolutionary proj- ects with their famous team leader. There were relaxing fun moments too. His lab had a pipe organ, Edison played it after completing their work and his assistants would have a sing along. Edison had the ability to inspire his assistants and gain their loyalty and dedication by working hard alongside them and joined them in the camaraderie of unwinding occasions together too. When a new employee Thomas Edison Was Famous for His Insomnia and Had a Team of Insomniacs Too asked him if there were any work rules, Edison replied "There aint no rules around here. Were trying to accom- plish something." You can visit the laboratory where he averaged 18 hour work days and see the bed his wife Mina placed in the Laboratory Library.
