o you appreciate the
gift of hearing? So
many of us take it for
granted yet so many people
cannot hear the voices of their
loved ones. Loss of hearing is
not just reserved for those of us
advanced in years. Children
are among the afflicted. Hav-
ing said that we are in need of
used hearing aids and maybe
you can help.
If you have a used hearing
aid and are able to donate it we
will have it reconditioned and
provide it to a child who is in
need. Just imagine hearing for
the first time! Can you provide
the gift of hearing to a child? If
so please call Alma at 973-
886-8087. Thank you in ad-
vance for caring!
Help the children hear
What are some signs of hearing loss in children?
There are a number of risk factors for hearing loss in children, so
there are a number of special reasons why a child's hearing may
need to be screened or tested. Common indications for a hearing
evaluation include:
Speech delay
Frequent or recurrent ear infections
A family history of hearing loss (hearing loss can be inherited)
Syndromes known to be associated with hearing loss (Down
syndrome, the Alport syndrome, and Crouzon syndrome)
Infectious diseases that cause hearing loss (meningitis,
measles, and cytomegalovirus [CMV] infection)
Medical treatments that may have hearing loss as a side effect,
including some antibiotics and some chemotherapy agents
Poor school performance
Diagnosis of a learning disability or other disorder, such as
autism or pervasive developmental disorder (PDD)

n Monday, July 11th
an electrical fire at
the Brittany Chase
complex in Wayne did more
than wipe out an entire condo
building; it devastated the lives
of all 24 families who lived in-
side of building #10. The fire
destroyed the Banerjea familys
third floor apartment and left
the family of four homeless and
without any tangible posses-
sions. The Banerjea Family
was the only rental unit in that
building and their landlady did
not require tenants insurance,
so they were unaware that her
insurance would not cover
their interior belongings. Trag-
ically, without insurance, the
financial burden for the Baner-
jea family is quite overwhelm-
ing. With two daughters in
college, they are caught be-
tween two financial strug-
gles: How do they start over
and try to get their life back in
order? And how do they con-
tinue to pay for the education
of their daughters?
Well, thats what neigh-
bors are for, isnt it? The pur-
pose of a community is to build
one another up and to support
those around us. Recognizing
this opportunity, in a true act of
community, Rabbi Michael
Gurkov of the Chabad Center
of Passaic County has opened a
charity to benefit the Banerjea
family.
This is our chance to give
back and support a family in
need right here in our own
neighborhood. Donations are
accepted online or can be
mailed to the Chabad Center
194 Ratzer Road Wayne, NJ
07470.
In addition, a fundraiser
will be held at Positano Restau-
rant, 254 Berdan Avenue, on
Monday August 15 at 3:00pm
for all the families affected. A
gift registry has also been estab-
lished on the Bed, Bath and
Beyond website (www.bedbath
andbeyond.com) under the
names Ashish or Ruby Baner-
jea. For more information or to
find out specific needs of the
family please contact Sreoshy
Banerjea directly at 973-452-
0956 or via email sreban
20@gmail.com. Please join us
as we come together as an em-
bracing community and help a
neighbor family in need!

t appears, for the moment
that there was bipartisan
support to pass a bill al-
lowing our government not to
default on interest payments
to holders of US Government
Securities and not to furlough
workers or shut down the gov-
ernment, at least for the near
term future. By raising the
debt ceiling $2.5 trillion dol-
lars, to $17,000,000,000,
000.00 we appear to be safe
for the moment. However,
what is the total cost in terms
of individual citizens and
their obligation to reduce this
insurmountable pile of obliga-
tions for multiple past admin-
istrations run amok and thrust
on our backs?
Where is the list of
spending cuts that the Repub-
licans demanded? If any
Board of Directors ran their company like our federal offi-
cials and politicians run the
US government, they would
all be in jail! For me, the writ-
ing on the wall is crystal clear.
The unwillingness of both
parties to reach the conclu-
sion of immediate budget cuts
nor any impactful deficit re-
ductions will lead to major tax
increases for the rich as well as
the middle class period! In
addition, reductions in Social
Security payments and
Medicare benefits are virtually
a guarantee. Wage earners
will face greater Social Secu-
rity taxation by rising tax rates
and the increase or elimina-
tion of the wage cap, currently
$106,000. Ages of eligibility
will be pushed out further and

before, an eligibility test will

House, Senate & White House agree on Raising
Debt Ceiling, how does this affect us? By Mark Charnet
continued on page 22
A
major part of reducing
your electric consump-
tion is knowing what
is consuming your
energy. And getting
that bill at the end
of every month is
frustrating, because
you are usually sur-
prised by the
amount, and its usu-
ally not pleasantly
surprised. When we
buy groceries, we know how
much the bill is. When we buy
gas, unfortunately, we know
how much that bill is. But our
electric bill is one of the few
that we have no control over.
We get the bill at the end of
each monthly billing period and
wonder how it got that
highuntil now.
There are several products
that can help us understand
what our appliances, electronic
devices, lights, air conditioning
and all other electronics are
costing us. Were going to dis-
cuss the easiest and most inex-
pensive product to use for this.
Its called a Kill A Watt.
A play on words, this device
plugs into any outlet in your
home or business. Then you
plug in one of your electronics,
such as a TV, refrigerator, a
light, a toaster oven, or what-
ever plugs into a standard
socket. The Kill A Watt cal-
culates the energy
your device uses, but
more importantly,
the cost of your de-
vice hourly, daily,
weekly, monthly
and for the entire
year. Its a smart de-
vice that takes the
guesswork out of
how much everything costs you
in electricity.
Now you can cut down on
costs and find out what appli-
ances are actually costing you
to keep plugged in. Simply con-
nect these appliances to the Kill
A Watt, and it will assess how
efficient they really are. The
large LCD display will count
consumption by the kilowatt
hour, same as your local utility.
You can also check the quality
of your power by monitoring
Voltage, Line Frequency, and
Power Factor. Now youll know
if it is time for a new refrigerator
or if that old air conditioner is
still saving you money. With the
amazing Kill A Watt you ll
know Watts killing you.
Cant plug something in?
Well, there is a solution to that
too. If you want more informa-
tion, watch for a future article,
or stop by our store. Well be
happy to show you more!
For more information on
this and other energy saving de-
vices, come to Solar & More at

unique store where you can see

D
espite incredible ad-
vances in dentistry
over the past thirty
years, dentists face a new
challenge to their success in
managing and treating your
bacteria-related oral health
problems: Stress! Doctors
consider stress to be a cause
(or at least factor) to not only
cardiovascular, autoimmune
and mental diseases, but also
dental issues. While stress re-
lated dental problems were
known to ancient societies
thousands of years ago, recent
upturns in stress levels among
people are making these oral
health issues much more
common. Stress may affect
dental health in several dif-
ferent ways:
IMMUNITY: Stress can re-
duce the bodys immunity to
disease by changing the pro-
duction of the normal inner
steroid from the suprarenal
glands. This produces a mal-
function in our cells .They are
unable to oust foreign bodies
like bacteria when they in-
vade the body. Since immune
cells are the bodys first line of
defense, this is not good. As a
result, gingivitis and gum dis-
ease are likely to develop
among stressed individuals.
Forms of tooth decay are also
commonly reported in
stressed patients.
GRINDING &
CLENCHING: Most grind-
ing and clenching occurs dur-
ing sleep, so a large
percentage of grinders and
clenchers dont even realize
they are doing it. Grinding
and clenching increase the
frequency of contact between
the upper and lower teeth, es-
pecially at night. While upper
and lower teeth are typically
in contact 20-30 minutes
each day, those who clench
and grind make upper-lower
contact several hours a day.
While this habit, called bux-
ism, may be annoying, it may
also lead to dental health is-
sues such as:
HEADACHES: Tenderness,
fatigue, and spasm in the mus-
cles of the face and neck,
which may result in
headaches.
TMJ: Damage to the tem-
poromandibular joint in front
of the ear. TMJ may cause
minor problems like clicking
when opening and closing the
mouth, or may present more
severely by preventing the
lower jaw from functioning
properly.
DISTORTION: If clenching
and grinding become chronic,
the cheek muscles may en-

T
here is no pain quite
like it. Once experi-
enced, most people
never forget the pain of a rib
being out. Acute rib pain is
typically felt as a savagely sharp,
debilitating pain just to one side
of the spine and usually between
the shoulder blades. Exacer-
bated by head, arm or torso
movement, the pain can be so
severe breathing is shallow and
restricted, and no position -
lying, sitting or standing - pro-
vides any significant relief.
Chronic rib pain, though less se-
vere and far less debilitating,
can also be a significant prob-
lem for many people, and is typ-
ically experienced as a constant,
deep, dull throb or ache that
persists despite exercise and
stretching. What are the causes
of rib pain, and how is it best
treated?
The rib cage is made up of
12 pairs of ribs and functions to
protect the lungs and heart. It
also serves as an attachment for
the diaphragm, making breath-
ing possible. The first 10 pairs of
ribs are attached to the breast-
bone. The lowest two pairs of
ribs are called the floating ribs
because they attach only to
muscle at the front. Moveable
joints, like those between the
vertebrae, attach the ribs to the
spine, enabling us to breath,
twist and turn. Occasionally,
these costovertebral joints
may lose their normal move-
ment or become fixed in an ab-
normal position. The result is
rib pain, acute if the joint be-
comes extremely irritated or
dull if the irritation is minor.
Costovertebral joint dysfunc-
tion can also put strain on the
cartilage at the front of the rib
cage. Pain may be felt at the
junction between the rib and
the cartilage or between the car-
tilage and the breast bone.
Most rib pain is due to two
main factors: chronic postural
faults and trauma. Traumatic
causes do not only involve in-
jury from accidents (ie: car acci-
dents, major falls or blows to the
back). Rib pain can also result
from microtrauma, such as
repetitive strain injury. These
underlying factors of posture
and trauma predispose the spine
and ribcage to irritation. The
triggers which may cause pre-
disposed costovertebral joints to
become irritated and painful
typically include reaching,
twisting, minor falls, or activi-
ties such as archery or curling
which use the middle back and
rib cage as a fulcrum. Neck
problems are often another
source of rib irritation, usually
the result of incorrect head po-
sition (abnormal posture) or
trauma.
Chiropractors specialize in
the detection and correction of
postural and functional joint
problems. If you suspect you

Matthew D. Loughlin
Physical Therapist, Director of Rehabilitation
M
atthew graduated with honors from New York
University in 1997 and began a satisfying career in
orthopedics specializing in spine rehabilitation. Ever
keen to learn and do more for his patients Matthew began
studying diligently for his certification in Orthopedic Manual
Therapy. This training exposed him to the concept of
Maitland Australian therapy, the Maitland Concept is referred
to as a concept and not as a technique. Emphasis is placed
not on the technique of treatment but on a basic philosophy-
a thought and decision making process, involving analytical
examination and assessment on which treatment decisions are
based.
Matthew has also had the thrill of studying with world-
renowned therapists Brian Mulligan and David Butler, further
expanding his clinical skills into more diverse orthopedic and
nerve injury treatments. Not to be missed, Matthew also
trained in the McKenzie Diagnosis and treatment of the spine.
Matthew believes the combination of this training and
education in the Australian, New Zealand and American
treatment strategies have allowed him to provide broader
range of treatment options thereby helping more patients.
Matthew has been a Director of Physical Therapy for 8
years, helping develop spine and sports clinics into leaders in
their respective communities. He is excited and eager to bring
his skills to the Advanced Sports Medicine & Physical
Therapy Center which specializes in:

H
aving bowed legs is
not without conse-
quences. Some of the
most talented and gifted ath-
letes may have a variation of a
condition called genu varum.
In training rooms, there are
even theories that it allows
them to run faster and with
greater power. When these
athletes get older, however,
they may be susceptible for nu-
merous problems including os-
teoarthritis.
In an individual with
bowed legs, the medial (or in-
side) parts of their knees expe-
rience a substantially higher
amount of force with walking
and exercising. In contrast, a
person with straighter knees
have a more even distribution
of forces, medially and laterally,
when weight bearing. Over
the years, the repetitive weight
bearing forces concentrated pri-
marily in the medial aspect of
the knee significantly increases
the likelihood of damaging the
cartilage surface and/or sustain-
ing a meniscus tear. Un-
treated, diffuse degenerative
cartilage damage, or os-
teoarthritis will likely set in.
Although total knee re-
placement is an excellent solu-
tion in older patients, it is not
an ideal treatment form for pa-
tients younger than the age of
50. First, after a total knee re-
placement, we ask patients to
significantly change their
lifestyles to avoid impact activ-
ities such as running. Secondly,
the implants have finite life-
times and wear out typically in
15 to 20 years. At that point,
the patients will often need a
revision total knee replace-
ment.

O
besity is a growing
problem in todays so-
ciety. Our feline
friends are no exception. The
difference is that they rely on us
to regulate their food and exer-
cise. Obesity is a condition that
is both preventable and treat-
able but requires some effort and
patience. The rewards are hav-
ing your cat live a healthy
happy and most importantly,
longer life.
Prevention is much easier
than taking off the excess
weight once it is there. Just like
people, the name of the game is
diet and exercise. I am an ad-
vocate of keeping your cat in-
doors so this doesnt mean to
start letting him/her outside but
dedicate some time everyday to
play with your cat. Not only will
it provide exercise but also stim-
ulation. Two favorite types of
toys are string toys or laser
lights.
The other component of
prevention is diet. First, with
the assistance of your veterinar-
ian, an appropriate food should
be chosen. Cats need different
types and amounts of food dur-
ing their life stages. This does
not include table food or exces-
sive amounts of treats. The
biggest mistake is feeding your
cat free choice, i.e. just keeping
the bowl full. Some cats regu-
late their intake but most will
overeat therefore its best to pro-
vide food in measured meals.
The most objective way to
tell if your cat is overweight is to
have your veterinarian assign a
body condition score. Basically
two things are assessed. One,
the ribs should be felt easily
with only a slight amount of fat
over them. Two, look
at your cat from
above and from the
side at the area be-
tween the last rib and
hindlegs, they should
have a definite waist
or hourglass shape.
Overweight cats
have many of the
same health risks as
overweight people.
One of the most com-
mon complications of
obesity in cats is dia-
betes. One of the early signs of
diabetes are an increase in thirst
or urination. Other health risks
include arthritis, heart disease,
liver disease, urinary obstruction
in males and skin problems. All
these can contribute to a de-
creased quality and length
of life.
If your cat is indeed
overweight, it is time to
start a weight reduction
program now. As we all
know, theres no quick fix
for weight loss. The first
step is to have your cat exam-
ined by a veterinarian prior to
initiating a weight control pro-
gram. Since certain medical
conditions can cause obesity in
cats, it must be determined if
there is an underlying cause or
if there are other conditions
present, which could compli-
cate weight loss. Your veteri-
narian can also help you deter-
mine a realistic weight
goal. It is important to
understand the process
may take a long time be-
cause even a small
amount of weight loss is
a large percentage of the
cats overall body
weight. Plus, rapid
weight loss in over-
weight cats is risky be-
cause it can result in
liver disease called he-
patic lipidosis (fatty
liver).
The focus of the weight
loss program is the same as with
prevention: diet and exercise.
There are two main ways to cut
down on calories: feed less of
the food the cat is currently eat-

I
n an age of constant tech-
nological advancement
and invention, we find
ourselves battling old prob-
lems with new ammunition.
One such problem is the issue
of what bacteria produce on
the surface of a wound......a
sort of slime layer called
BIOFILM. Universally, bac-
terial produce a biofilm to in-
sulate themselves from
elements that would destroy
the bacteria. The presence of
the biofilm makes topical an-
tibiotics and systemic antibi-
otics (oral or intravenous)
less effective in destroying the
bacteria, thus allowing them
to continue microscopic lev-
els of infection and destruc-
tion of healthy tissue.
Soon to come to market
will be a first of its kind drug
that targets the biofilm with-
out destroying healthy tissue.
The drug works by weakening
bacteria by depriving the bac-
teria of nutrition, thus mak-
ing the production of biofilm
less possible. Without the
biofilm, standard topical an-
tibiotics would easily eradi-
cate bacteria it normally
could not. This drug would
be safe in conjunction with
other wound healing thera-
pies and products.
Another exciting advent
soon to come will be a probe
that can measure the bacter-
ial burden (in thousands per
cubic centimeter) of any tis-
sue surface. The product,
soon to be released in Europe,
will be a swab based rapid of-
fice test that will help clini-
cians render judgment on a
wound as having more or less
bacteria as a definite number.
Whats exciting is that the ef-
fects of the treatment deliv-
ered can be quantified in 2 or
4 weeks with a second swab
measuring and comparing the
bacterial count from prior vis-
its to current visits. How this
will modify clinician behavior
is that topical treatments that
fail (as bacterial counts con-
tinue to rise despite use of a
topical therapy) will be recog-
nized earlier and alternative
antibacterial regimens (oral
or intravenous) can be initi-
ated at an earlier point in the
process of care.
Lastly, the generalized
ing or switch to a weight reduc-
tion diet. Table scraps also need
to be eliminated and treats min-
imized. Feeding less may just
entail measuring meals instead
of free choice but weight loss
foods are usually more success-
ful. Weight loss diets are typi-
cally either low calorie/high
fiber or low carb/high protein.
They can provide reduced calo-
ries and also keep your cat satis-
fied so theyre not waking you
up to be fed. Exercise programs
for cats seem more difficult than
those for dogs. Trying new toys,
initiating playtime and getting
the whole household involved
are important.
All this hard work will
keep your cat happier, healthier
and you can enjoy a longer life
together. For more information,

C
ancer is the great
equalizer. No one is
immune. Not even
Dr. Harry Long.
Though cancer is a real-
ity we all live with, whether
indirectly or directly, no one
is ever ready for a diagnosis.
Dr. Harry Long was shocked
at diagnosed in 2009. A rou-
tine physical showed that his
PSA score had risen. A subse-
quent biopsy revealed cancer
cells in his prostate. Thank-
fully, after robotic surgery, Dr.
Long was able to beat out his
cancer and recover in just a
few months. But not all are so
lucky, and Long wants to do
something about that.
Several months ago, Dr.
Longs son introduced him to
the Pan-Massachusetts Chal-
lenge, a two-day 192 mile
bike ride used to promote
cancer awareness and re-
search fundraising. Each year,
5,200 cyclists join together to
ride from Sturbridge, Massa-
chusetts to Provincetown,
Massachusetts. In the process,
these cyclists raise over $33
million dollars for the Dana-
Farber Cancer Center in
Boston. The Dana-Farber
Cancer Center is one of the
premier cancer clinics in the
world. In 1947, Dr. Sidney
Farber founded the Childrens
Cancer Research Foundation
to begin research into devel-
oping treatments for early
childhood cancers. Today it
remains a front runner for
cancer research and treat-
ment. Not long after learning
of the challenge and the op-
portunity to raise money for
cancer research, Harry Long
and his son decided to partic-
ipatea nearly $10,000 com-
mitment! Each man is
required to raise $4,200 to
enter.
Dr. Long and his son will
ride on the Cape Cod Sea
Camp team, a diverse team of
twenty riders from all over
the east coast who come to-
gether each August to raise
money for the Dana-Farber
Cancer Center. This year, the
Cape Cod Sea Camp team
will break the million dollar
mark for the first time in ten
years. If you would like to
make a donation to the Dana-
Farber Cancer Center and
help Dr. Harry Long and his
son raise the necessary funds,
please visit PMC.ORG and
look for rider: Harry Long.
Please contribute any amount
you are comfortable with.
Your contribution may make
the difference in the life of
someone fighting this terrible
disease.

Question:
Are Iluorescent lights worse Ior your eyes than
incandescent lights?
No. With routine use. neither tvpe of
light causes damage to the eves or visual
svstem. Some people mav be more bothered bv
some tvpes of lights than others. The most
common complaints include evestrain and
drvness.

Eric Shnayder, MD is a Board Certified Ophthalmologist who treats a wide variety of eye disorders. After graduating summa cum laude
from Temple University, he received his Doctor of Medicine degree from the Medical College of Pennsylvania. The doctor completed his
Ophthalmology residency at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. Aside from performing regular eye exams, Dr.
Shnayder is proficient in cataract & laser surgery, glaucoma, diabetic eye disease, retinal disease and children's eye problems. He prac-
tices at 1426 Route 23 North in Butler and can be reached at 973-838-7722.

Question:
Can sitting too close to the TV damage your
eyes?
Contrarv to the popular mvth. sitting too
close to a TJ will not damage vour eves but it mav
cause evestrain. Children can focus at close dis-
tance without evestrain better than adults. There is
no evidence that this damages the eves either in
children or adults. With children. this habit usuallv
diminishes as thev grow older.

TEETH FILING
& CAVITIES: Not only may
grinding and clenching cause
teeth to be filed down,
smooth v-shaped cavities may
develop resulting in tooth
sensitivity.
FRACTURES: Damage to
the gums causes teeth to move
more freely and ultimately
can cause tooth fractures. Ad-
ditionally, dental restorations
like crowns and bridges are at
risk of fracture.
How do you treat grind-
ing and clenching? Depend-
ing on the severity of the case,
Dr. Brusco may offer you op-
tions such as night-mouth
guards, muscle relaxants,
mouth rehabilitation, ortho-
dontics, bite adjustment, mus-
cle exercises and medications.
Dr. Brusco is a 1980 graduate
of The University of Pennsyl-
vania and has been practicing
in Kinnelon since 1982. Dr.
Bruscos practice is located at

F
lat foot also known as pes
planus, is a condition
where the inside of the
foot lacks an arch. This is one
of the most common foot defor-
mities affecting approximately
25% of the U.S. population af-
fected. Some people with flat
feet may experience problems
that limit their activities, while
others are competitive athletes.
It is important to differentiate
a normal flexible flat foot from
other serious foot problems. A
rigid flat foot is a more serious
problem that is often caused by
a bony deformity such as a fu-
sion of one or more bones of
the foot. An orthopedist or po-
diatrist can appropriately diag-
nose the type of foot deformity.
The good news is that the vast
majority of children do not
have a fixed deformity and re-
quire only conservative treat-
ment.
All children are born with
flexible flat feet, a condition in
which the arch of the foot
shrinks or disappears when they
stand. Most children eventu-
ally develop a normal arch,
however some do not. When a
childs flat foot posture persists
between the ages of six and ten,
it indicates a permanent condi-
tion. At this time immediate
intervention is recommended
to encourage normal develop-
ment of the arch and to pre-
vent pelvic and spinal postural
deformities. This is especially
true when one foot is flatter
than the other. Unbalanced
forces occurring during physical
activity can result in significant
trauma to the foot/ankle, knees,
hips and back.
A pediatric physical ther-
apist should evaluate the child
with flat feet in order to assess
the flexibility of the Achilles
tendon, degree of pronation,
strength of the tibialis posterior
muscle and determine the need
for custom made orthotics.
Children with flat feet often
exhibit tight calve muscles or
Achilles tendons that need to
be stretched. When the
Achilles tendon is tight, it
causes the foot to drop down or
plantarflex. The body tries to
compensate by pronating or
flattening the inside of the foot.
In addition the child may
demonstrate weakness of one or
more of the muscles in the calf
including the tibialis posterior
muscle. Along with stretching,
exercises and manipulation, or-
thotics is another component
of the treatment. At Kids
Therapy Center we coordinate
care by a licensed orthotist who
is able to create molds for the
foot in the convenient setting
of our clinic. The use of or-
thotics provide corrective sup-
port that encourages normal
development while preventing
further deformity and reducing
abnormal kinetic chain stresses
on the pelvis, and spine during
the formative years. Surgery is
rarely required for this condi-
tion and is reserved only for the
severe types of flat foot that do
not respond to conservative
therapy.

S
tudents who love to
sing and perform are
discovering the bene-
fits of choir and chorus pro-
grams at school after a
popular television show has
proven inspirational.
Viewers really havent
been treated to a show about
performing students since
Fame aired for five seasons,
beginning in 1982. Since
Glee debuted in September
of 2009, it has revitalized in-
terest in show choirs and be-
come an influential part of
pop culture.
For those unfamiliar
with Glee, the show follows
the story of high schoolers
who team up and perform in
a successful show choir group
called New Directions. Re-
visiting the stereotypes that
made Brat Pack movies like
The Breakfast Club popular
in the 1980s, the television
show pits the personalities of
jocks, drama queens, ec-
centrics, cheerleaders, and
other high school staples
against one another. Al-
though an integral part of the
show is the musical numbers
the students perform, the
songs are interwoven into the
core theme of each episode,
and help tell the stories of the
students and teachers facing
difficult issues from bully-
ing to intolerance to teenage
pregnancy.
Glee has quickly be-
come the 90210 for the cur-
rent generation of high
school viewers, but its appeal
goes beyond hot-button issues
and risqu subject matter.
Many of the shows avid fans
tune in each week for the
music and to see the talented
cast put its spin on songs of
today and yesteryear. Glee
has even helped spark re-
newed interest in perform-
ance arts programs in schools
across the country.
High school vocal directors
across the country have re-
ported increased interest and
participation in show choirs.
In a report in The Daily
Iowan, West High music di-
rector Ryan Person noted an
upsurge in choir participa-
tion, particularly among male
students a group of partic-
ipants that was often difficult
to attract.
According to Joel Biggs,
president of FAME Events, a
private company that puts on
show choir events and com-
petitions, roughly 20 new
high school choir programs
emerged within the last year.
He credits Glee for the rise
in interest, and says there are
more than 300 show choir
groups now in schools around
the country.
The Glee Effect, as it has
been dubbed, could give re-
newed hope to arts educators
in schools that have seen
budget cuts slash music pro-
grams across the board. Stu-
dents rallying for show choirs
say that they provide some-
thing for everyone, especially
the student who doesnt know
how to apply his or her talent.
Show choirs and theater
groups need performers, direc-
tors, set designers, costume
designers, choreographers, ad-
vertisers, and a host of other
roles in order to be successful.
Students are no longer being
swayed by the negative
stereotypes surrounding show
choir participation of the
past.
Glee is just one of
many shows focusing on per-
formance arts that could be
responsible for the upswing in
auditions and interest in per-
forming in high school.
Camp Rock 2, American
Idol, Dancing With the
Stars, and Americas Got
Talent, is part of the collec-
tive group of television focus-
ing in on the arts and
inspiring new generations of
students.

interest in school choir

T
hough ceiling fans are
most associated with
warm-weather seasons,
most can be effective through-
out the winter months as well,
helping circulate warm air
throughout a room in much
the same way they circulate
cool air during the warmer
weather. Most of today's fans
have a switch near the motor
housing that alters the direc-
tion in which the fan's blades
turn. When a ceiling fan is
used in the summer, its blades
push the air downward, mov-
ing cool air around the room.
The air blowing around the
room is what cools people
within the room. When the
blades' direction is altered, the
blades then push the air up-
ward toward the ceiling. This
drives the hot air, which typi-
cally rises to the top, down to-
ward the edges of the room.
This helps circulate warm air
throughout a room, making for
more even heating. What's
more, this improved heat cir-
culation helps combat window
sweating that results from con-
densation on the glass when
hot air is not effectively circu-
lated throughout a home.

arbecue fans tend to love
their hamburgers. Un-
fortunately, hamburgers
dont make for the healthiest
fare. Those who love to grill
throughout the summer might
find their burger bulge adding
up come the end of grilling sea-
son.
But grill masters need not
limit their passion for patties to
hamburgers. In fact, the follow-
ing recipe for Turkey Patties
from Rebecca Katzs One Bite
at a Time (Celestial Arts)
makes for a healthy and deli-
cious alternative ideal for the
grill. For extra flavor, consider
whipping up a batch of
Grandma Noras Salsa Verde
(see box).
Turkey Patties
Makes 8
2 pounds ground dark-meat
organic turkey
23 cup minced yellow onion
14 cup finely chopped fresh
basil leaves
14 cup finely chopped fresh
flat-leaf parsley
1 teaspoon minced fresh
ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic
12 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon crushed fennel
seeds
1 teaspoon dried oregano
18 teaspoon red pepper
flakes
Olive oil for coating the pan or
grill
In a large bowl, combine
the turkey, onion, basil, parsley,
ginger, garlic, salt, fennel,
oregano, and red pepper flakes.
Mix well. Shape into desired
sizes of patties.
Heat a grill pan brushed
with oil and browns the patties
over medium heat on both
sides, about 3 minutes per side.
Cover and continue to grill for
3 more minutes until cooked
through.
Or, in a saut pan, add just
enough oil to coat a hot pan.
Saut over medium heat for
about 3 minutes on each side to
brown, decrease the heat, and
add a tablespoon of water.
Cover to steam the inside,
about 6 minutes. Serve in a pita
or on a bun.

A tasty and healthy
alternative to burgers
continued on next page
be initiated, either income or
asset based, or both! Accord-
ing to the 1935 Social Secu-
rity Act, Congress can
change, modify or repeal So-
cial Security altogether! The
point is that our national pen-
sion system isnt guaranteed!
Most of the money we are
paying into the system now
goes right out the door to cur-
rent collecting retirees, not
into a Social Security bank
account for us!
Do you have a pension
plan? Worried about its sur-
vival, longevity, cost of living
increases etc., you should be.
Some pension plans can be
modified for current retirees if
continued payments would
jeopardize the stability, sol-
vency or viability of the plan
for future retirees. The Fed-
eral Guarantee fund that in-
sures these pension plans is so
severely underfunded that if
just a handful of large pension
plans failed, the fund would
be exhausted. After cash for
clunkers and other failed fed-
eral stimulus packages, is
there any room in the budget
for a guaranteed pension fund
bail-out? Ill let you answer
that question for yourself.
As you are aware, most
companies have gotten away
from traditional defined ben-
efit retirement plans (pen-
sions) and replaced them with
defined contribution plans
(401ks) placing the burden of
retirement funding solely on
the backs of the employees
and not the employers. Let
me ask a question here. What
formal education did you have
or receive from any source, on
the proper way to fund and al-
locate a 401k retirement plan?
Probably none right? Ques-
tion number two, what formal
education did you have or re-
ceive from any source on the
proper way to withdraw
money from your 401k or
other retirement plans, which
would last for the rest of you
and your spouses lifetimes?
Probably none right?
Readers: some Ameri-
cans are calling the passing of
this bill, the new deal for the
US and I couldnt agree more.
Let me explain what I mean.
The new deal the government
passed now made official the
following paradigms as it
comes to retirement and fi-
nancial planning. Your Retire-
ment Plan must be:
SELF Funding, SELF De-
pendence, SELF Sufficiency,
SELF Supporting, SELF Disci-
pline, SELF Managing, SELF
Calculating, SELF Selecting,
SELF Motivating, SELF Com-
pleting, SELF Sacrificing,
SELF Supervising, SELF Cor-
recting, SELF Educating,
SELF Responsible, SELF Ac-
countable, SELF Construct-
ing, SELF Dependency, SELF
Fulfilling, SELF Financing,
SELF Guaranteed, SELF Pro-
pelled, SELF Policymaking,
SELF Decision-making, SELF
Supervisory, SELF Liable,
SELF Accountable, SELF As-
sured, SELF Supporting, SELF
Sponsoring, SELF Backing,
SELF Everything!!
Do you see a central
theme or word in the list
above? Without exception,
the government has con-
firmed and decreed that we
are now 100% responsible for
the lifestyle we wish to create
for ourselves during our retire-
ment years. To steal a phrase
from the Declaration of Inde-
pendence, We The People
are truly independent to suc-
ceed or fail in our quest to
achieve financial independ-
ence. We the People will
dictate the quality of our re-
tired lives based on our vigi-
lance in this endeavor,
determined by the quality and
quantity of invested dollars,
time and the effort we intend
to expend on planning for our
own future period.
With that said we must
remember to live below, not
within our means. We must
learn to invest and save thou-
sands and if you are able, tens
of thousands, every year for
the long-term. We can only
depend and count on our-
selves and what is most alarm-
ing, the government will not
remain a neutral party in our
quest to prosperity; in fact
they will be a spoiler, taxing
us at every turn along the road
to financial independence.
They will tax our earnings,
our savings, our accumula-
tions our retirement with-
drawals, and again in its
entirety, our entire net-worth
at death. I further predict they
will tax our spending via a na-
tional sales tax in addition to
income and capital gains
taxes. Lest we forget the fiscal
condition of the State in
which we reside. The neces-
sity to increase revenue
through taxation, because, the
NJ government refuses to cut
spending by any significant
degree, follows the Federal
lead. Local taxes continue to
increase unabated by any
worthwhile spending cuts as
well. This is a scary set of cir-
cumstances and since we are
basically defenseless and
proven powerless to entice our
elected representatives to cut
to the bone, the most logical
solution is simply to have
more money. We must: earn
more, save more and invest
more in order to: grow more,
spend more and enjoy more.
Sounds like a plan to me!
Hows your plan doing in light
of the deficit, the compro-
mise, the way of the future?
Want a second opinion? Give
me a call. The call and the ap-
pointment are free. You never
know, you might learn some-
thing to win the race to finan-
cial independence and to stay
that way!

tive patients, a total knee re-
placement just is not an option
that they will consider. We
usually start off by trying an in-
jection option such as visco-
supplementation (Synvisc,
Orthovisc), and more recently,
PRP (platelet rich plasma) in-
jection. Unfortunately, in the
severely bowed legged individ-
uals, these options may help
only minimally.
One alternative solution is
a procedure called High Tibial
Osteotomy (HTO). The oper-
ation is essentially to cut the
bone, re-aligning the leg to
make it straight, and to hold
the cut bone in its new position
with plates and screws. The op-
eration is actually very preci-
sion dependent: we use
numerous cutting jigs and
alignment guides to ensure that
the new position is correct to
the millimeter. More recently,
there has been a trend towards
an opening wedge osteotomy,
where we use artificial graft
(synthetic bone substitute tis-
sue) to fill the gap, after cutting
the bone and changing the
angle. The result of the opera-
tion is a much straighter knee,
where the weight bearing force
is away from the osteoarthritic
medial compartment. Further-
more, the advantage is that the
patients can return to all sports
activities with no restrictions.
They have essentially kept their
own knee joints, but with
straighter legs.

Mommy and Me Fitness!
Mothers with infants and
young toddlers have always
been challenged to find a way
to get back in shape while fo-
cusing on the demands of new
motherhood. This class lets
mom keep baby within arms
reach so there is no need to
worry about finding a sitter or
making the time away from
baby to workout. The
StrollFit program is devel-
oped with the needs of both
mom and baby in mind. Each
60- minute class consists of
cardiovascular, strength and
flexibility training for a total
body workout. The classes also
provide a great environment
for moms to connect with one
another and develop support
systems for achieving fitness
goals. Not to mention bond-
ing with baby! Now offered in
2 locations Wayne and
Montclair. For more informa-
tion or to attend a free class-
Contact Tami Wolfe at 973-
896-4828 or email tamis-
wolfe@comcast.net.
