From the Publisher’s Desk
Joe Korba
I have to start my introduction to our annual Mother’s Day edition by thanking my mom, of course. She has the patience of a saint for dealing with me when I was a teenager and taught me so many valuable lessons about hard work and integrity. She always led by example and has definitely helped shape the better aspects of my personality. She also got me into reading at a very early age and didn’t scoff when I told her that I wanted to go to college to study journalism. Thanks for everything, Mom! I hope all of you moms (and everyone else) enjoy this issue. Happy Mother’s Day to all!
Happy Birthday James Meckes - 63 on May 12 Michele L. Sullivan - 46 on May 14 Kevin Green - 52 on May 14 Emily Dailey - 13 on May 17

Habitat For Humanity LV’s Third Annual ‘She Nailed It!’ Competition Submitted by MARY YOUTZ Women in the Lehigh Valley competed in an action-packed ladies-only nail-hammering competition called the ‘She Nailed It!’ Social and Competition on May 5 in support of the Women Build Initiative. Teams of four competed to see who could hammer home the cause. Each team member was tasked with hammering a nail as quickly as possible into a 2x4 wooden stud and the team that hammered their nails the fastest was named the 2015 She Nailed It! Champions. Each nail hammerer raised $250 in donations from friends and family and all donations benefit a Women Build home in Easton for a hardworking, lowincome family. The 2015 Champions were awarded Golden Hammer Awards. Additionally, Habitat also presented an award to the top individual fundraiser and the top team fundraiser, and a Top Rookie Award was given to the team with the fastest time among first-time teams. The event also featured appetizers and desserts, as well as a chance to meet many other professional women in the Lehigh Valley.
A new highlight of this year’s event was the Playhouse Raffle. A beautiful 7.6' L x 5.4' W x 6.2' H playhouse for young children was constructed, painted and decorated by CREW (Commercial Real Estate Women of the Lehigh Valley) and Habitat volunteers. It’s custom-made, and its all wood construction and real roofing material make it a quality playhouse that will last a long time. It is blue with white and green trim, featuring a front porch. The playhouse was raffled at the She Nailed It! event. Women Build is Habitat for Humanity's initiative designed to recruit, educate and empower women to break stereotypes and fight poverty housing. Habitat Lehigh Valley's Women Build Committee formed in 2012 and has successfully raised the full funding and volunteered on the construction site to build a house in South Bethlehem. Women Build is continuing its impact in the Lehigh Valley and is now raising funding to complete a home in Easton. Habitat for Humanity’s mission is to provide affordable housing for hardworking low-income families. Homeowners commit to 250 hours of “sweat equity” to be eligible for a Habitat home. Partner families repay a no-interest mortgage as part of Habitat’s philosophy of giving potential homeowners a “hand up” instead of a “hand out.” Since 1989, Habitat has built and renovated more than 100 homes in the Lehigh Valley and dedicated its 100th home last year. Contact Habitat Lehigh Valley at 610-776-7737 for additional information or explore its initiatives by visiting the website at www.habitatLV.org.

Meet the Staff
Who is an influential woman in your life? What has she taught you? Joe Korba, Associate Publisher: It’s cliché, but the woman I respect most in the world is my mom, Donna Korba. She’s such a hard worker and has such integrity, both values that I hope passed on to me. She also instilled a love of reading in me at an early age, which shaped the rest of my life.
Alice Wanamaker, Editorial Assistant: My Mem (grandmother) influenced me probably more than anyone else I've ever known. She was strong, mostly independent, caring, and didn't let what others thought of her impact her happiness. I learned so much from her—too bad her baking skills didn't rub off on me.
Danielle Tepper, Editor: My Nanny (grandmother) is one of my all-time favorite people. She and my grandpa have opened their home to me twice in the past while I worked in NYC and NJ. I never felt like a guest; it felt like I belonged there. My entire childhood feels rooted in that house thanks to the love they give so freely. From her, I learned all the words to “A Bushel and a Peck” and that nothing beats a good pot roast! I know she’s reading this, since I ship every new issue of the Gazette to NJ—Happy Mother’s Day, Nanny! XOXO
Donna Bachman, Accounting Manager: My mother and mother-in-law are the most influential women in my life. Taking care of loved ones knowing the end was near has to be the hardest choices you have to make without having control over the situation. Seeing the man you love losing his autonomy, going through that much pain was really hard for them. So this is for both of my mothers. I wish I was as strong as they are. They are my inspiration.
Catherine Stroh, Publishing Assistant: My mother is a very influential woman in my life for many reasons. She, along with my dad, has always made sure my sister and I know that we are the most important thing to them, that their children are cherished. She has always stressed and therefore taught me the importance of family, along with being honest and having manners when they are called for. She has taught me what a mother and a woman should be and given me values that I will forever carry with me and maybe pass on one day, just as she did from her mother. Happy Mother’s Day, Mom! Tony Pisco, Art Director: My wife, Emily. She decided to marry me and raise a family together. HHH Reopened Under New Management HHH

Kim Roman, Marketing Assistant: My beloved mother, the late Bonnie Hilbert, was and will always be the most influential woman in my life. She taught us that everyone has characteristics that make us unique, some of which will lead us to live a challenging lifestyle, but to not let it discourage us. Her deafness did not deter her from raising a loving family, becoming a talented self-taught artist, and Deaf Woman of the Year recipient—just a few of the numerous reasons I am proud to be her daughter. She was known to be an inspiration; funny, thoughtful, beautiful, creative, and a treasured mother, wife, grandmother, friend, and neighbor.

Provident Bank Foundation Supports Meals On Wheels Of Northampton County Submitted by BRYAN HYLAND Provident Bank Foundation, which supports organizations that are dedicated to improving the lives of residents in the communities served by Provident Bank, has provided Meals on Wheels of Northampton County with a $2,000 community grant to support The Better Fresh Project. The project helps to give seniors access to fresh produce which otherwise they would not have and benefit from good nutrition. The project also helps to support the local farming community while helping to protect the environment, reducing the use of fuel needed and used to transport fresh produce. Locally grown product is much more beneficial than that which is stored. “We are proud to be able to support The Better Fresh Project at Meals on Wheels,” said Jane Kurek, executive director of The Provident Bank Foundation. “This partnership between the Foundation, the organization, local farms and the community enables us to work together toward a common goal; to promote healthy living through the delivery of nutrition services.” For over four decades, Meals on Wheels
of Northampton County has supported the independent living of the elderly and disabled in the community by providing nutritious meals and the friendly smile of a delivery volunteer. The organization has served 1,500 seniors in the area, 90% of whom are low income and unable to afford the total cost of food. “We are so grateful to partner with the Provident Bank Foundation in support of the Better Fresh Project and appreciate Provident Bank’s concern for the nutritional needs of those whom we have the privilege to serve,” said JoAnn Bergeron Nenow, executive director of Meals on Wheels Northampton County. More information about Meals on Wheels of Northampton County is available at www. mealsonwheelspa.org or by calling 610-691-1030.

NLEA Raises Money Through Burger King Night
Submitted by ALLISON CHRUSCIAL On Tuesday, March 31, the Northern Lehigh Education Association (NLEA) held a Burger King Night to raise money for the elementary libraries.

Northwestern Lehigh School Board Shares Negotiation Goals Submitted by LEZA RAFFEL Recognizing the importance of negotiating a contract that balances fiscal responsibility with a commitment to excellence through learning, the Northwestern Lehigh School Board Negotiating Committee has developed a series of negotiation goals that will serve as a framework for talks with the Northwestern Lehigh Education Association, the union which represents the District’s teachers. The school board’s negotiation goals are as follows: Preserve the district’s high-quality educational programs that address the individual needs of every student through the development of a responsible and sustainable contract. Implement a health care plan that is reflective of the economic challenges the community faces, allows for greater budgeting predictability, and focuses on providing coverage to the employee and his or her dependents. Maintain professional development time in order to strengthen the creation and delivery of curriculum consistent with best practices, and to meet ongoing federal and state mandates. Mindfully protect the district’s fund balance for non-reoccurring expenditures by developing a salary plan that is fair and sustainable within a balanced operational budget. The next negotiation session is scheduled for May 4. The district’s contract with the Northwestern Lehigh Education Association expires June 30. School Board President Paul Fisher is hopeful that this negotiation session will progress in a way that makes achieving these goals possible. “Our school board is eager to develop a contract that balances the needs of students, teachers and taxpayers,” stressed Fisher. “We are optimistic that the association will work with us to make this a reality.” As part of its community awareness efforts, the Northwestern Lehigh School Board
Negotiating Committee will share key milestones with the public as contract talks progress. The community is encouraged to visit www. nwlehighsd.org for updates.

This recipe is extremely quick, easy, and versatile. You could substitute any meat of your choice, but I prefer the chicken. As far as my veggies go, I usually like to include broccoli, peppers, and snap peas. Because this dish is so versatile, I’d say just eyeball the amount of vegetables you put in, depending on what meat-to-vegetable ratio you are looking for. I have also used both chicken and vegetable broths and stocks, low sodium if possible, and honestly could never tell the difference. I always go with low sodium soy sauce to keep the salt content down and keep this as healthy as possible. I prefer to serve it over noodles as opposed to rice; that’s just how I’ve always done it. You may want to add some garlic or some other kind of flavoring, maybe even more soy sauce. This recipe is very basic and safe; a great starter recipe. Good luck and enjoy!

Casey’s Crossing
Submitted by BILL LEICKEL This area is referred to as Casey’s Crossing, Casey’s Switch, or Casey’s Siding. The trolley company often named a stop or passing siding with the last name of the property owner whose land abutted the right of way, usually a farmer. The trolley line in the area of Casey’s Crossing ran up the west shoulder of what is now Route 873 and continued along Best Station Rd. just past the Route 873 curve. When the track was laid, there was no highway between Best Station Rd. and the area in front of the Presbyterian Church on Route 873.

Back row: Samantha Lambert, Emily Mitman, Mikayla Xander, Leah Kovach, and Nicole Schmidt. Photo courtesy of Janet Keppel. Submitted by JANET KEPPEL This year, Studio 5678, a local dance studio in Coplay, is celebrating its tenth year under the ownership of Janet Keppel. The studio will be celebrating this milestone on June 20 at Catasauqua High School with their annual recital performance, “10 Year Celebration.” Originally named Marianne’s School of Dance, the studio was opened in 1967 by Marianne Kocher. Currently, the studio offers a well-rounded selection of dance classes, including pointe, ballet, modern, lyrical, tap, jazz, hip-hop, and combination classes for age levels starting at three years old. Along with their regular classes, they also offer an opportunity to be part of an award-winning Competition Ensemble. The students perform their group and solo dance routines at regional
dance competitions throughout Pennsylvania. This past season, they attended the Lehigh Valley Dance Challenge, Groove and Dancers, Inc. “I am extremely proud of our dancers for their amazing talent, drive for improvement, and dedication to our studio. Nothing makes me happier than to see them perform on stage, bringing our choreography to life with smiles and passion,” said Keppel. Highlights of this season included graduating Whitehall senior, Nicole Schmidt, placing second in the overall high score senior solos at Dancers Inc. where she also received a scholarship to attend one of their conventions and CaDance received third place overall high score for junior small groups. Accent, competing for their first time, received third place overall high score for recreational junior small groups and soloist Mikayla Xander received a dance workshop scholarship, both at LVDC. Another highlight of the year for Studio 5678 was being named Hulafrog’s “Most Loved” dance studio in the Lehigh Valley.

george2legs A couple weeks ago, Reddit user Egzo posted a photo of his funny little cat, George, who just happens to prefer to stand on two legs. His photos quickly gained traction online, with commenters exploding over his adorable stature. Egzo didn’t waste time in trying to capitalize the virality of his feline friend, making a YouTube channel, Facebook page, and Instagram account almost instantaneously. The Huffington Post got wind of George’s popularity and made him a superstar in no time; he now has over 21,000 Instagram fans and you can be one of them by visiting him @ george2legs.

Submitted by COLIN RICCOBON The American Red Cross encourages eligible donors to give blood this May in honor of World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day on May 8 (the birthday of International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement founder, Henry Dunant). World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day recognizes the local and global impact of the Red Cross mission.

Donors of all blood types – especially those with types O negative, A negative and B negative – are needed to help ensure blood is available for patients this spring. To make an appointment to give blood, download the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit redcrossblood.org, or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1800-733-2767). Upcoming blood donation opportunities for Northampton County: Monday, May 4 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Faulkner Subaru (330 Stoke Park Road in Bethlehem) and Wednesday, May 27 from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at Northampton Community College (3835 Green Pond Road in Bethlehem).

Skin Cancer Foundation Tips For Skin Cancer Awareness Month Submitted by EMILY PRAGER Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the U.S. Each year, there are more new cases of skin cancer than the combined incidence of breast, prostate, lung, and colon cancer. Skin cancer can affect anyone, regardless of skin color, gender, or age. In fact, one in five Americans will develop skin cancer in the course of a lifetime. These facts may be alarming, but because skin cancer is mainly a behavioral disease, it is highly preventable. "About 86 percent of melanomas and 90 percent of nonmelanoma skin cancers are associated with exposure to the sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays," said Perry Robins, MD, president of The Skin Cancer Foundation. "That's why embracing proper sun protection is critical year-round. You'll reduce your skin cancer risk and help prevent wrinkles, leathery skin, and brown spots." Follow The Skin Cancer Foundation's Prevention Guidelines to stay sun-safe: Seek the shade, especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Do not burn. Avoid tanning and never use UV tanning beds. Cover up with clothing, including a broadbrimmed hat and UV-blocking sunglasses. Use a broad spectrum (UVA/UVB) sunscreen with an SPF of 15 or higher every day. For extended outdoor activity, use a waterresistant, broad spectrum (UVA/UVB) sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher. Apply 1 ounce (2 tablespoons) of sunscreen to your entire body 30 minutes before going outside. Reapply every two hours or immediately after swimming or excessive sweating. Keep newborns out of the sun. Sunscreens should be used on babies over the age of six months. Examine your skin head-to-toe every month. See your physician every year for a professional
skin exam. For more information, visit SkinCancer.org, which features more than 600 pages of medicallyreviewed content on skin cancer prevention, early detection, and treatment.

Making Mother’s Day Personal
There are so many ways that Mom has showed us her love over the years. Mother’s Day (May 10) is one of the best opportunities to say thank you and making Mom a very special personalized gift is the perfect way to do it! Let’s reuse those monthly make-up delivery boxes (fabfitfun, Birchbox, Glossybox, etc.) and make some fun gifts!
Supplies: Cardboard box with lid • Paint and/or scrapbook paper • Craft wire • Scissors Miniature clothespins • Two of your favorite photos
Steps:
Step 1: Start by painting or decorating one or two of your make-up delivery boxes with either your favorite color craft paint or a few sheets of scrapbook paper. Keep the print light so the focus is on your photos. Allow paint/glue to dry. Step 2: Carefully thread the craft wire through the short side and tie a knot. Connect the wire through the other side of the box, again knotting the end to secure the wire. Step 3: Attach one or two of your favorite photos to the craft wire with tiny clothespins. You can hang the box on any wall using double-sided tape or artfully display it in Mom’s space. Note: There are hundreds of re-use ideas for these wonderful boxes online. Share your Home Recycled Home photos with us Facebook!
Do you have an item (or a collection of items) that you are looking to recycle? Send a picture of your products over and I just might use them in a future project! Pictures should be emailed to awanamaker@townandcountrygazette.com. Please be sure to include your name and contact info.

Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive
Submitted by SHARON ALEXANDER Local members of the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) will Stamp Out Hunger on Saturday, May 9 by collecting nonperishable food donations from their regular postal routes and delivering them to Second Harvest Food Bank of Lehigh Valley and Northeast Pennsylvania and its network of member agencies for distribution to area families in need. Letter carriers will be aided by volunteers from Teamsters Local #773, the Rutgers Alumni Club of the Lehigh Valley, Keenan House, and the Northampton County Probation Department for this one-day food drive event. To participate in Stamp Out Hunger, postal customers should leave their sealed, nonperishable donations in a visible place by their mailboxes before their regular delivery on Saturday, May 9. Donations should be in a sturdy, clearly marked bag so letter carriers know to collect it. Truck drivers from the US Postal Service and Teamsters Local #773 will then make a special delivery of the donations to Second Harvest Food Bank or one of its local member agencies, where it will be inspected and sorted for distribution to where it is so desperately needed. Second Harvest is currently in need of nonperishable items including cereal, peanut butter, pasta, rice, tuna, and canned soup, fruits, or vegetables. Non-food items such as diapers and personal care items like shampoo, toothpaste, and soap can also be donated. For the safety of the letter carriers and volunteers, please do not donate items in glass containers. In the week before the food drive, postal customers should receive a postcard in the mail announcing their area’s participation. If residents are unsure whether their letter carrier is participating, they should contact their local Post Office. Postal customers across the region have donated more than 2.1 million pounds of food over the years, all of which was delivered by
dedicated local letter carriers to Second Harvest and its member agencies. Across America, more than 10,000 cities and towns participate in Stamp Out Hunger, making it the largest one-day food drive event in the nation. Donations provide a critical boost for the food bank in the summer months, a time when supplies are low and school breakfast and lunch programs are not available for area youth. “On behalf of the 200 organizations that are members of the Second Harvest network and the more than 65,000 individuals who rely on this network for food assistance, we want to express our sincere gratitude to the postal patrons across our region for their generosity. We are especially grateful to the letter carriers, the NALC, and other sponsors who make this wonderful effort possible. Children, seniors, and hard-working adults will benefit,” says Second Harvest Director, Ann McManus.

Derek Deserved Better Shonda Rhimes giveth and Shonda Rhimes taketh away ...
Shonda Rhimes eats her fandom’s tears for breakfast. She laughs at your heartache. She pokes needles in the voodoo doll hearts of our (fictional) loved ones and taps her fingers together maniacally as she bears witness to our pain through our furious Tweets and emotionally unstable Tumblr threads. Am I overreacting? Maybe―but I’m also still far too distracted from real life because I’m mourning the death of a person who doesn’t even exist. And I get to blame Shonda for that. For those of you who have thus far been spared the trauma and turmoil single-handedly doled out by this monster, Shonda Rhimes is a television writer and a life ruiner. She ruins people’s lives. Her production company, Shondaland, has churned out smash hit primetime dramas like How To Get Away With Murder, Scandal, Private Practice, and, of course, Grey’s Anatomy. Its logo? A literal emotional roller coaster, which couldn’t possibly be any more of an accurate depiction of what is guaranteed to happen to those who choose to become invested in one of her shows. 10 years ago, I fell victim to the same trials and tribulations that befell the new class of interns at Seattle Grace Hospital. I cheered for their medical victories, I wanted to hug them when they failed their patients, and I fell in love with their love―namely that of the title character, Meredith Grey, and her one-night-stand turned boss turned fling turned love-of-her-life husband, McDreamy. So imagine my unadulterated rage on April 23 when our darling Dr. Derek Shepherd (a worldclass neurosurgeon!) succumbed to a brain bleed and some truly terrible writing. Hell hath no fury like a fangirl scorned. The internet imploded and rightly so. This one’s personal. Shonda’s Twitter bio makes it clear that she’s experienced this type of onslaught before: “I make stuff up for a living. Remember, it's not real, okay? Don't tweet me your craziness.” That statement alone offends. We know it’s not real. But for someone with a hot air balloon for a head, she should realize that viewers connect to the characters she has so carefully crafted over
SPOILER ALERT
the years. Newsflash, Shonda: It’s kind of why we watch television. It’s escapism. While I understand that the shocks have to keep coming in order to keep ratings up, I have to believe that she finally shot herself in the foot. Fans are completely enraged and the fire isn’t cooling. Ratings may very well plummet, and to boot, it may be done purposely. Vindictively, even. Of all the chaos this particular group of doctors has had to endure (freak storms, plane crashes, mass shootings, cancer scares, and bus accidents, to name a few), you expect us to believe that a series of half-hearted unfortunate events would bring Dr. Shepherd to death’s door? Shove it, Shonda. (And to try to soften the blow by cheapening his character with an impromptu cheating scandal just a couple short episodes prior? That’s just lazy.) “How to Save a Life” is the first episode she has written since the devastating season 8 finale, according to The Hollywood Reporter, which saw fan-favorite Dr. Mark Sloan/McSteamy and Meredith’s half-sister Lexie meet their untimely demise, which proves she only picks up the pen when it’s time to send us all spiraling into a lovely summer pit of grief. Unlike most of the people joining the cacophony calling for Shonda’s head on a spike, I don’t shed very many tears while watching television. I was in a state of shock throughout the entire episode, thinking they couldn’t possibly just up and off Derek with such a cavalier plotline. But then they had to go and create a montage of MerDer’s relationship and it suddenly got very real. “You were like coming up for fresh air; it was like I was drowning and you saved me.” Hi, that’s just me, drowning in never-ending tears. To add insult to injury (or vice versa, honestly, Shonda said, “Hey, what song do our viewers associate with debilitating agony? OK, let’s use that.” And then we had to witness that gutwrenching montage and Derek’s last breath to a haunting cover of Snow Patrol’s “Chasing Cars,” performed by Sleeping at Last (the same band that broke our hearts in this year’s Budweiser Super Bowl commercial).
www.townandcountrygazette.com | May 7, 2015
Shonda has a history of ruining actors’ reputations once she decides she’s not happy working with them anymore (e.g. Katherine Heigl, formerly Izzie Stevens on Grey’s) and rumor has it she and Dempsey had a contract dispute, which would explain his abrupt departure. Not one to be accessible to the fans, she merely issued a blanket statement to various media outlets, saying: “Derek Shepherd is and will always be an incredibly important character―for Meredith, for me, and for the fans. I absolutely never imagined saying goodbye to our ‘McDreamy.’ Patrick Dempsey’s performance shaped Derek in a way that I know we both hope became a meaningful example―happy, sad, romantic, painful, and always true―of what young women should demand from modern love. His loss will be felt by all. Now, Meredith and the entire Grey’s Anatomy family are about to enter uncharted territory as we head into this new chapter of her life. The possibilities for what may come are endless. As Ellis Grey would say, the carousel never stops turning.” I would think that viewers aren’t angry that he left, but the way in which he was written off. It was too flippant. Casual. Dare I say, heartless. For a man we’ve spent the past ten years with, as our leading man, Derek deserved better. And don’t even get me started on that nightmare of a follow-up on April 30, what was presented to
Page 41
us in previews as a memorial and tribute episode! Instead we got a two-minute funeral missing key players (are we expected to believe Addison and Cristina wouldn’t have made an appearance in this situation?) and the next two hours spanned almost an entire year. Meredith left Seattle and went we-don’t even-know-where, had another miracle baby, seemingly worked through her mommy issues, and returned to work head held high. You know, come to think of it, with that last shot of a scalpel slice, the episode really could’ve worked as a series finale.(If Shonda knew when to quit.) After that convoluted mess, I can officially say I’m done with Grey’s. It’s been one of my all-time favorite television dramas for the better part of a decade, but Shonda has slammed the final nail into the coffin, so to speak. I’m eager to see what the ratings will look like for the season 12 premiere. (My guess? Not good.) Maybe then she’ll finally get a taste of her own medicine and instead of a character dying, her whole show will. Derek will always be top of my list of favorite characters throughout the years, not only on Grey’s, but in all my shows. And I’ll remember him the way Shonda should’ve allowed us to; oozing charm and heroics, the kind of doctor who believed it was always a beautiful day to save lives. Rest easy, handsome. We’ll miss you, our knight in shining whatever ... hell, we may even burn Grey’s to the ground for you.

Submitted by GEORGE ASHMAN The Feature Room of the Heritage Center at 410 Delaware Avenue in Palmerton continues to show antique toys. The center is open Wednesday through Saturday each week; call 610-824-6954 for a recorded listing of hours each day. If the front door is unlocked, that means there is someone in the office who can show you around. Admission is free, but donations are gratefully accepted. Even if the center isn't open, check out the front window display, it is a tribute to the Concourse Club, which is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year.
Let me help you find your dream home I go the extra mile to market your property and help meet your needs. I know your local market.
