Along with the World Trade Center primary towers, many other buildings in the area were destroyed or badly damaged from the attack. Many buildings were condemned. The Pentagon suffered serious damage as well. Thousands of first responders and civilians entered the affected buildings to search for or help people exit the carnage. As of 2010, it is believed that more than 800 of these responders have also died, some say from illnesses related to their heroic efforts. While the world is quick to focus on the extensive damage and loss of life that ensued as a result of this terrible day, it also is important to focus on the survivors and those who risked their own lives to save people from burning and collapsing buildings. There are a number of ways to honor the legacy of these brave people. * Establish a memorial at your home, in a neighborhood park or at a place of worship. While many memorials exist, there is certainly room for more memorials devoted to the heroes of September 11. * Host a family get-together on or around September 11. Celebrate the life of those people who were lost on that day and focus on the positive memories. * Initiate a scholarship fund in memory of a lost relative or friend. Many businesses or even the place of employment of the deceased may be willing to contribute money to the effort. This way the individual's name will live on and be associated with something positive for years to come. * Volunteer time at a firehouse in the area or with an EMT unit. Volunteer EMTs and fire fighters are in short supply. Becoming a part of one of these units enables people to help others. * Survivors can share their stories with school children or others, imparting knowledge about the events as they unfolded. This is a strong lesson in American history and bravery. * Make a donation to a charity that offers financial support to those impacted by the events of 9-11. Be sure to check out the charity to ensure that funds are appropriated
eptember 11, 2001, is a day permanently etched in history. 9-11 carries profound meaning for many people and stands in infamy along with events like Pearl Harbor and the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. The attacks on 9-11 resulted in a total of 2,996 fatalities. Among those were the victims on the four planes, civilians working in the towers and on the ground, military personnel and civilians in the Pentagon, and first-responders to the scenes. It is believed that at least 200 people in the World Trade Center fell or jumped to their deaths from the burning towers because rescue was improbable at or above points of impact on the towers.
properly. * Plan a visit to downtown New York City to see the progress that has been made in rebuilding the area, and visit the memorial that has opened to honor those who lost their lives. While September 11, 2011, will live in infamy as a traumatic and horrific moment in American history, people can focus on the positive aspect of the heroes and find ways to honor their memories.

eing a responsible dog owner means taking your pet for annual veterinary checkups. At the appointment, the veterinarian will check the dog's vital signs, ears and teeth and ask questions regarding eating and elimination habits. A fecal test also may be conducted to check for various parasites in the dog's gastrointestinal system. These parasites may include roundworms, hookworms and coccidium. Additionally, a blood draw may be ordered to check for heartworm and to ensure that
the dog's blood levels are where they should be. Routine immunizations will be administered if the pet is healthy. New shots enable certain shots, such as the one administered to protect dogs against rabies, to be given every few years instead of annually. The animal's weight also will be recorded, and the vet will ask if there is anything out of the ordinary going on with the animal. Annual checkups are vital to a dog's health, and dog owners should stick to an annual checkup schedule.

llamuchy Fire was dispatched for a reported motor vehicle accident involving a tanker truck with fluids leaking and possible entrapment. As company officers arrived on scene, it was confirmed that one individual was trapped in a car and the tanker was heavily leaking gasoline from its primary tank. This was the scenario for a drill Allamuchy Fire conducted to practice safe
tactics when responding to a Hazmat situation. Firefighters and drivers learned how and where to properly place fire apparatus, initial strategies to quickly establish control of the scene, resources required, and how to control a leaking tanker. Upon completing the exercise, firefighters debriefed and analyzed tactics that worked and didnt, and how to further improve themselves if this were a real-life scenario.

By Elsie Walker ars, music, dancing, and cheesy driven-in movies, these were some of the fun of the 50s, fun that is recreated for a weekend each year at Lead East. Held August 28th September 1st at the Parsippany Hilton, the event, known as the worlds largest 50s party, includes cars from 1972 and earlier, do wop groups, movies like Teenagers from Outer Space and more. Adult admission is $15 for Thursday or Friday, $22 for Saturday or Sunday. Admission for Seniors (66 years and older) and Juniors (12 to 17 years old) is $10 on Thursday or Friday, $15 on Saturday or Sunday. Children (11 and under) are admitted free to the car show when accompanied by an adult. Children need a ticket for the Friday, Saturday and Sunday night Oldies Concerts. Lead East is put on by Appleton Productions of Long Valley. The partys host is Terry Cook, who started the event 31 years ago. One of the ways the event stays fresh and growing is thanks to those who attend. Were always open to suggestions that come from the people, said Cook. An example is this years pie eating contest that was suggested by the Hilton staff. One thing that draws people to Lead East
The toys will be distributed to needy children in the north Jersey area. The MTAs jeep will be located in the front Lead East vendor area. Reflecting on the popularity of Lead East( about 15,000 20,000 attend), Cook notes that the event reflects a more innocent time. It was a time that the only gun a child even touched was a toy one, not a real one. The world was not the way it is today. But now, for one weekend a year, people get a chance to visit those earlier days and enjoy the fun, through a time portal held at the Parsippany Hilton.
any families may be surprised at how much they spend on school supplies: According to a recent article in the University of Pennsylvanias Wharton Magazine, for the average person with children in grades K through 12, it comes to nearly $700 a year. To help you get the most for your money, consider these eight ideas: 1. Try to get a list from your childs teacher ahead of time. The teacher may require specific brands, sizes or quantities. 2. Subscribe to a newspaper. It encourages reading and can give kids extra knowledge and incentive in history, civics, English and science classes. 3. Depending on the childs grade, youll probably need glue, scissors, ballpoint pens, No. 2 pencils, colored pencils, a pencil sharpener, a large pink eraser, water-based markers, spiral-bound or composition notebooks, and a three-ring binder with looseleaf notebook paper. 4. Get pocket folders with two pockets. Label one keep at home and the other

bring to school to help your child organize his papers. 5. Get a calendar for scheduling assignments, sports practice and so on. 6. A pack of index cards for making flash cards can also come in handy. 7. Lots of books of all kinds. 8. A way to carry it all. Its a fact: Kids are tough on stuff. But today, kids are carrying many more delicate things like electronics, phones and sunglasses. The days of the simple backpack are over. Today, kids need places to put laptops, tablets, cables and cords along with schoolbooks and papers. The Thule EnRoute series is a great option for all these needs. The packs come in four colors and four sizes, and feature a large main compartment with a padded sleeve for a laptop and a separate pocket for a tablet. There is even a heat-molded compartment, called a SafeZone, to protect those smaller, fragile items. Learn More For further facts, go to www.thule.com.

By Joe Klock, Sr. ollowing is a randumb mishmash of titbits (look it up before you frown), designed to titillate you (for shame if you frowned again!) - or, at the very least, provide you with momentary diversion. None of them are of Pulitzer quality, but if they evoke from you a small smile or perceptible nod, they have served the writer's purpose. Here goes: - Possible Country/Western song title: "She Was Only A Homely Moonshiner, But I Loved Her Still!" - Definition of shotgun weddings: Matters of wife or death. - While it is true that the early bird gets the worm, it's the second mouse that gets to eat the cheese. - Most of the money in the world is tainted; that is to say, tain't yours and tain't mine neither. - A point to ponder: If the world didn't suck, as some say it does, there's a good chance that we might fall off it. - If you have been scared half to death more than once, be grateful, because you have clearly beaten the odds. - Maybe the Good Lord didn't create anything without a purpose, but mosquitoes, cockroaches and many politicians come mighty close. - Red meat, contrary to the advice of some nutritionists, is not bad for you. However, gray meat with a furry coating more than probably is. - At all costs, avoid involvement in dangerous cults

Last year more than 30 golfers participated in the first annual MHAMC Golf Outing, 20 ladies came out to the ladies event and more than 100 attended the dinner. It was great, says Flynn. It was a really good crowd. Also held at the Spring Brook Country Club, which is right in the heart of Morris County which is convenient for everyone. Flynn describes, there was a spirit in the room. The way we help these people for help and recovery- the spirit of that work was in the room. People all said they go to many of these and they said there was just something special happening. Last year, more than $25,000 was raised at the golf outing event for the MHAMC. Our goal is to introduce the agency to people in the community, says Flynn, So they will volunteer or join the board. Its more of an outreach event. The agency is also looking for sponsors or donations from businesses or individuals to support the event.

By Cheryl Conway ost health experts and medical doctors would agree that drinking lots of water daily can only better ones health.but how many have considered the type of water that should be consumed? There is a water on the market that contains antioxidants and alkaline, and through medical studies has proven to improve health while reducing many diseases and illnesses. A medical device was developed out of Japan 39 years ago and works to take out the impurities from tap water. The device that was designed to restructure drinking water is available to hospitals, restaurants and homes world wide and may very well be the best water for drinking, bathing and cleaning, according to experts. The Japanese company claims that its water flushes out toxins better than regular water. You end up with a very powerful antioxidant, says Rick Ercolano of Manahawkin, independent sales representative and distributor of the restructured ionized water, much more powerful than any fruit, vegetable or green tea would give you. Ercolano, who presents weekly seminars about the oxidizing water, says one glass of this water equals 30 glasses of green tea,
After washing a bag of cherries from the supermarket you can see the discoloration in the water that you would normally consume. When you purchase produce odds are they were sprayed with pesticides. Regular water will not remove oil based pesticides, but using a strong water will remove them, in return keeping you healthier.
drinks are also highly acidic as well as carbonated drinks such as soda which do not hydrate the body and can be bad for ones health. To date, there are 300 hospitals in Japan and 3,200 restaurants worldwide that use the ionizing water device in their establishment. The water device or machine is the size of a coffee pot and can be placed on the
counter or even under a counter. It ties into the cold water line under the sink and then filters water through seven medical platinum coated titanium plates with 23 watts of electricity. With a double carbon anti-filter, the electric current goes through the titanium plates to work as an ionizer. The device makes different waters by altering the ph levels, creating waters that continued on next page
Tell Them You Saw It In The Hackettstown News, August 2013, Page 21 continued from previous page are suitable for drinking, taking medicine, cleaning and beauty water.. For best results, with water that is most oxidizing and highest alkalinity, water should be drunk within 48 hours. The water is also healthy for pets, as well as for bodily and household cleaning. The electrical charge wears off every hour up to 48 hours and weakens gradually, says Ercolano. Its always best to drink the water right from the machine. With that being the case, this alkaline water can not be sold in bottles. Since chemicals leak in plastic bottles, Ercolano makes his own to go drinks by putting the water from his ionizing water filter into DPA3 bottles to take the water with him for the day when away from his home. A separate unit is available for the shower to provide beauty water to the skin and hair that helps reduce wrinkling and anti-aging. While there are several different devices available at different price ranges, customers who try the ionized water system will pay about $1 a day over the next 15 years. Devices, which come with a five-year warranty, are built to last 15 years for commercial use and 20 years for residential. There are competitors out there, says Ercolano, with systems from Korea, Taiwan and China but they are made out of metal, disintegrate in 12 to 18 months and the water starts to taste medicine. The product that Ercolano distributes comes with a cleaning cartridge that can be removed and cleaned every three to six months to clean the ionizers that can build up scaling from calcium in the water. It is the only ionizer in the world with a gold seal certification from three organizations which include the Water Quality Association, Natural Sanitation Foundation and the American National Standard Institute. It makes people feel good, says Ercolano. It gives them more energy. It helps build up their immune system with antioxidants. An antioxidant is a donor; if theres an abundance of electrons that are available it helps to protect the immune system. The cost is less than a $1 a day for a family over the next 15 years, he says. Its the next mega trend. Everyone will own one within the next seven years. It works real fast. Mary Lalama of Flanders, who bought the water ionizing machine about two years ago with her husband Joe Nicastro says, The water is really great. It's amazing to see all the chemicals that come off the fruits and veggies that we buy at the supermarket. I make ice tea with it and have the container in the refrigerator. You just put the 9.5 water in with some tea bags, and it brews within minutes, no boiling, nothing. The oxygen in the water permeates the tea bag so easy...but if you try regular water it doesn't do anything. My brother has gout really bad, he bought a filter and he can pretty much avoid any flair ups even when he eats foods he shouldn't, says Lalama. Nicastro says they use the water for drinking, cleaning the food, sterilizing and cleaning without chemicals, feeding animals and as beauty water. He likes how it does not fill you up and I can drink a gallon of water a day when I can't even finish regular or bottled water which fills me up. Nicastro, who used to drink bottled water, bought the system after I read about the benefits. I also saw a demo that showed drinking one can of soda I would need six glasses of ionized water to get rid of acid. Acid causes the body to have issues. Whether it was energy drinks or even bottled water the effects those were having on my body made me realize that I needed to do something. Ionized water has been the best thing for my health. Since drinking the ionized water, Nicastro says he has more energy, has less sluggish afternoons, less acid reflux and aches and pains. People that try this water see a difference right away, says Nicastro. It is not like taking a vitamin where you wait to see if there is a result. You feel it almost from the minute you drink it. We have enough harmful chemicals in our foods and the air we breathe. This water is amazing and especially children should be drinking this from a young age. Nicastro says It is best to get it fresh everyday has the best strength that way. Very good water and really good for you we love it.
