Tips From South Jersey Window Tinting

Installing films on the interior windows of your home may not be at the top of your home-makeover “to-do” list, but South Jersey Window Tinting has several good reasons why homeowners should consider this a priority. South Jersey Window Tinting believes in, “Block the Sun, Not the View” concept.

As one of the area’s largest contractors of window films, South Jersey Window Tinting has more than three decades of experience and knowledge in the importance of Window Film. Here are some tips why window tinting is essential:

Why should people seriously consider investing in window tinting for their home?

“For heat, glare, fading of flooring, furniture, paintings, wallpaper, etc. We also offer safety film to protect from glass breakage and intruders”.

How does putting film on the windows reduce energy costs?

“By installing film, you are not allowing 100% of the cold air to penetrate through the glass surface, reducing heating costs.

What does come through during the winter is trapped, which keeps the heat inside your home”.

Talk a little bit about how your product provides protection from the sun?

“This is the latest, nanotechnology film that is applied to the interior of the existing glass, which insulates homes both summer and winter. It protects you and your home from harmful UV rays”.

How much does it cost?

“Pricing is job specific. Call or email us to receive a FREE estimate. We run several pricing incentives throughout the year...We have one going on now!”

What’s involved in this installation?

“Jobs vary from one to the next. Our experienced installers will go over everything with you from start to finish”.

With most people spending more time at home, dealing with excessive glare and the need for privacy has become a priority. Ask the experts at South Jersey Window Tinting for suggestions!

Thinking about Auto Tinting?

Our products block out 99.9% of UV rays to improve safety and privacy. Our films are approved by the American Cancer Society. We are South Jersey’s #1 Auto Tinting company since 1985! Concerned about break-ins in our communities? Turn Burglary into attempted burglary with Clear Safety Film that can be applied to your existing windows! Safety film strengthens your glass, will hold glass together in the event of an impact and stops flying glass which will deter burglaries. Clear Safety Film is applied directly to the interior window pane which will improve safety, security and give you peace of mind! Call for a FREE estimate.

JB Bakery, where everything is always Just Baked, and people are always smiling

JB Bakery began as a bagel and bread shop in 1952. Over time, ownership passed from family to family, and the product line increased. Fifteen years ago, Burlington native Stephen Simon purchased JB and made it what it is today: a local landmark and dessert lover’s paradise that is regularly voted one of Burlington County’s best bakeries.

Originally, JB stood for “John’s Burlington Bakery”, the bakery’s founders, Mr. Simon sees it as “Always Just Baked” because it operates 24 hours a day to produce fresh-baked products. At JB, professional bakers and pastry chefs employ traditional methods to perfect the art of dessert making. They use scratch mixes and high-quality ingredients free of preservatives and imitation flavors, with the human element involved from creation to consumption. The bakery offers hard-to-find specialties from all over the world, holiday delicacies, seasonal specials, fresh bread and rolls, a cof-

fee bar, and exceptional service. The chefs design custom cakes for weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, Sweet 16s, Bar and Bat Mitzvah, holidays, reunions, and many other occasions; by establishing relationships with customers and listening to their ideas, JB’s all-star staff turns cake dreams into reality.

Through the years, JB has become a Burlington County landmark. It is annually featured in the local news, and people visit from out-of-state to tour the facility and taste the sweets. Guests cherish walking in and experiencing the rich aroma that is unique to real, old-fashioned bakeries. A few years ago, JB gained fame for introducing its ever-popular “Whale Cookie,” a sugary delight inspired by the brave beluga that swam the Delaware River. The bakery was especially honored to host Food Network Chef Robert Irvine for an episode of Dinner Impossible, entitled “Nightshift: Impossible”, during which Irvine used JB’s old-

Antiques and Clocks Clock Repair and Service

Antiques and Clocks Repair and Service has been family owned and operated for 34 years. Founded by Master Clockmaker, David Fisher and his wife Lisa, they opened their business in the late 1980’s as a small antique and clock store located in Cinnaminson. As time went on and their family grew, they decided to work from their home in Moorestown, which enabled them to fix clocks and spend time with their family.

Clock repair requires skill with an intricate knowledge of the machinery that powers the clock. Each clock is unique, especially older antique clocks that were made in the earlier centuries. There are only a few master

world techniques and machinery to pull a culinary all-nighter.

Above all, JB is a family bakery and a part of the local community. Generations have come to regard it as “their” bakery, and it is common for people who grew up with JB birthday cakes to feature JB at their weddings as well. It is the official bakery of Burlington’s Wood Street Fair and supports other local events such as Festival of Lights, Bike Night, and the car show. JB frequently makes gift and product donations to local organizations and fundraising efforts, and it creates jobs for community members.

repairers left in Southern New Jersey and in the digital age few people have taken up the ancient art. Master Clockmaker, David Fisher, is one of the few who takes care of hundreds of historical and every day clocks.

For David, clock repair work is a rewarding challenge. Seeing families reunite with happy memories from childhood, special events and even inherited timepieces from a loved one who lived generations ago, is just one additional benefit to a job well done.

While David does the repairs, his wife Lisa handles clock research, marketing and schedul-

A New Vision for Retirement

Renovations worth celebrating are in the works at The Evergreens

There’s a sense of excitement at The Evergreens, a premier Acts Retirement-Life Community in historic Moorestown, New Jersey. It’s contagious. Everyone on campus, staff, and residents, seems to have a little spring in their step this spring, as the community transformed with new renovations.

As early renovations to the historic Matthews Hall at the heart of campus have begun to roll out, more exciting changes are on the way. “The two-year project, which we expect to complete this year, includes a fully renovated clubhouse, lobby area and front entrance,” says The Evergreens Executive Director, Tom Burke. “The clubhouse will feature a new bistro, coffee shop, theater, wellness center, salon, and rehabilitation space as well as an expanded fitness center and renovated restaurant, library,

and game room. This renovation project – the most ambitious in our history – is part of a master plan that has been carefully developed with the next generation of retirees in mind.”

The scenic 32-acre community features expansive outdoor spaces, including a 9-hole putting green, maintenance free gracious living options and a wide array of superb amenities and activities enjoyed by the vibrant, active residents that live there.

As a continuing care retirement community (CCRC), The Evergreens offers more than just maintenance-free living today. Residents enjoy long-term comfort and security. With Acts Life Care®, they know they’ll pay for

future care in today’s dollars should they ever need it.

“The new renovations bring a new excitement to our campus,” says Farryn Harte, Senior Director of Sales and Marketing at The Evergreens. “When we are presenting our community to a prospective resident or family member, the ability to showcase the enhanced services and amenities of the project is a pleasure. This renovation will just add to the delight and gratification of living and working at The Evergreens for everyone. “

To find out how you can enjoy the beautiful and exciting new lifestyle at The Evergreens, call us today at (856) 372-5819 or visit AboutActs.com/Sun

Mah Jongg, canasta, pinochle – everybody’s playing these games these days and you can, too!

Maybe you’ve seen friends or folks in your local community center or library laughing and socializing and just overall enjoying themselves at the card tables playing any of these games. And maybe you wished you could join in the fun but don’t know how to play and think perhaps these games might be a bit too difficult and arduous to learn?

Balderdash!

YOU can learn the fundamentals of each of these games at Game Friendzy in Cherry Hill, the area’s premier tabletop game location to learn and play mah jongg, canasta, and pinochle (and bridge, too, for those so inclined!).

After an introductory session you’ll be ready to play at a basic level and, as you continue to play, enhance your knowledge with various game-playing strategies.

Healthcare Considerations In Your Twilight Years

Between 1946 and 1964, America experienced a population explosion referred to as the Baby Boom with members of this generation now aged 59 to 77. More than 76 million people were born during this time. As this generation ages and its numbers wane, the Millennials who are now aged 27 to 42 born between 1981 and 1996 have surpassed the Baby Boom generation in size. While Baby Boomers bring with their aging the need for more medical care in the U.S. so too will the large generation of Millennials to follow. As a result, it is more important now than it has ever been in America’s history to be sure we are all well taken care of in our twilight years.

One of the ways our justice system allows for regulation of the industry is through the consult of attorneys specializing in nursing malpractice claims by individuals or families who have met with harm at the hands of a facility. Keep in mind that the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality has reported that facilities with low nursing levels tend to have the highest rates of poor patient care. Time and again studies show that low nursing levels are associated with an increase in facility acquired infec-

tions, pressure wounds, and falls with injury. One would think that nursing homes would attempt to alleviate this health care hazard by attracting more nurses through better pay and benefits, but that is not always the case. As an attorney who handles neglect cases, I know that many claims are filed due to inadequate and incompetent nursing staff. In my experience, these decisions are at times based upon the profit margin for the facility which does not prioritize patient care. Issues can also occur simply due to poorly run facilities. To help you choose a nursing home for your loved one, the NJ Department of Health has established a nursing staff to

patient ratio quarterly report for facilities that can be accessed online through the following link: https://www.nj.gov/ health/healthcarequality/ health-care-professionals/ nurse-to-patient-staffing/background/nhstaffing.shtml. Hopefully this provides some assistance to those of you searching for a facility that fits your needs.

If you or a loved one meets with harm or injury due to nursing neglect, please feel free to contact me at 800-PRA-LAWS or swarfel@pralaw.com. For more information, you can also visit my firm’s website at www.pralaw. com. 

Probate and Senior Real Estate Specialist

As a Senior and Probate Real estate Specialist, I bring knowledge, and years of experience working with seniors and their families, Executors/Administrators, and attorneys, to compassionately assist in marketing their homes for sale. This is often a sad time with the passing of a loved one, or the decision to relocate after decades of living in their home. The process can be overwhelming and confusing and requires an agent who is a trusted and patient resource with the ability to coordinate and communicate extensively. The process is not simply about putting a “For Sale” sign on the front lawn. I have extensive connections with contractors, clean-out companies, staging experts, estate sale and auction companies, elder

care attorneys, senior placement services, and alternate living options. I understand the issues needed to downsize or settle an estate, and am well versed on local real estate market conditions. By working closely with a team of professionals, I am able to devise a plan that suits my clients’ needs. The goal is to ensure our client enjoys a smooth and confident process from our first meeting to settlement and beyond. I believe education is critical to my profession and have earned additional Realtor designations and certifications that include Certified Residential Specialist, Senior Real Estate Specialist, Accredited Buyer’s Representative, Seller Representative Specialist, Real Estate Negotiation Expert, At Home With Diversity, as

10,000 Steps A Day Fact or Fiction?

It became conventional wisdom in many fitness circles a few years ago that we should all try to take 10,000 steps a day. But is 10,000 really a magical number?

A study in JAMA Neurology found that walking about 10,000 steps a day was linked to less cardiovascular disease (heart disease, stroke and heart failure), 13 types of cancer, and dementia. Taking 10,000 steps is about the same as walking four or five miles, depending on your stride. Here’s some tips to help you get in those 10,000 steps each day.

Give the Dog Walker a Day Off: Many Americans let their dogs out in the backyard for exercise or hire a dog walker. Save some money and save your lawn by taking your dog for a walk at least once a day. Research shows it’s actually better for your dog as well. Average 2,000 steps (30 minutes walk)

No Bull Mattress & More

No Bull Mattress & More has the prices you are looking for right in time for Spring. They have something for everyone. Saving every customer 55 to 80 percent every minute of every day in a no haggle, no hassle, no pressure environment.

No Bull Mattress & More truly is the little guy the big guys hope you don’t find. That is their motto, and there may not be a more fitting one for any business anywhere. Located in a little warehouse next to Dunkin’ Donuts at 2060 Springdale Road in Cherry Hill, take one step inside the front door and you will instantly realize it is unlike any mattress store you have ever been in.

Carole Cutry is the owner and operator with family employees. With virtually no paid advertising, and operating out of a warehouse rather than a big expensive showroom, she simply does not have the overhead that all

the others have and can therefore hit lower price points.

Not only has she taken all of the overhead out of buying a mattress, she also eliminated the deceptive advertising, phony sales and high pressure sales tactics that are unfortunately all too common nowadays.

“My goal is for my customers to have fun buying a mattress,”

Cutry says. “And if they’re able to come here and find lower prices than any other place, and not have to haggle for those prices, that is a fun buying experience. I want every person that walks out of here to have a smile on their face. We want to be a breath of fresh air in the marketplace.”

No Bull Mattress & More can be found at 2060 Springdale Road in Cherry Hill, and can be reached at (856) 751-1371 or www. nobullmattress.com Call or stop in. Open Mon – Fri 10-5pm, Sat 11430pm, and Sun 12-4pm. 

trip to the grocery store one day a week could add another 4,000 steps.

Schedule Walking Meetings: Research shows that using meeting time to walk and talk will keep you healthy, heighten your alertness during your meeting and may actually increase creativity by 81-100%. Plus, you’ll be making more efficient use of your time. So the next time you have a meeting scheduled, grab your sneakers and cell phone and get moving!

Take Your Date Outdoors: But why not keep things fresh and fun by adding a few active date nights. A walk on the beach, a nature walk or even an indoor walk at your local art exhibit or museum are just a few active alternatives. (Average of 4,000 steps/per one hour walk)

If you need help getting your 10,000 steps in per day and would like the assistance of a BeneFit personal trainer to help you increase your activity so that you can stave off the negative effects of aging, we’d love help. Give us a call at 888-323-8677. 
