Racks Still Standing With New Location, Storefront And More Hours, Proceeds For Charity
By Cheryl Conway fter expanding so much in less than a year, a non-profit thrift boutique shop in Long Valley recently relocated, offering more shopping hours and its own dressed up store-front window. The Long Valley Junior Women’s Club is back in business with its own space just two doors down from its previous space at Green Market. Located at 28 Schooley’s Mountain Rd. in Long Valley, Racks Valley Boutique just held its grand opening, Sept. 8, with its wine and cheese event. Through the help of volunteers and generous landlords, Racks was able to muddle through and continue to stay afloat when hit with challenges. Club members are looking forward to greater sales that will not only provide quality clothing to shoppers but will support the community in so many facets. “We are so excited!” says Andrea Alfieri, co-vice president of Racks along with Michelle Barron. “Now we have our own boutique.” At racks, LVJWC collects the community’s clothing, resells the quality merchandise and donates the remaining items to Big Brothers Big Sisters. All proceeds to go back to support the town’s services and charities.
“It’s an award winning concept,” says Alfieri, one that was recognized in May as the Best Community Improvement Community Program by the New Jersey State Federation of Women’s Clubs of GFWC. Club member Amanda Janke explained “We had outgrown our current space and needed to be able to have our own, private storefront to successfully continue the business. Just shy of the boutique’s one year anniversary last June, club members started looking for a new space, but ran into so many challenges that at one point they feared they may have to close the doors for good. “Topping the list of hardships was finding a property owner that was willing to negotiate with a non-profit organization,” explains Janke. “The club was also set on keeping the boutique in Long Valley, where most of its members reside, and there simply were not enough affordable options available. At almost the last second, the group’s former landlord, Leona Harrington, was able to help the club broker a deal with the owner of a property just a few doors down from the Green Market building. “It’s really no surprise that Leona was the one who finally got us in contact with someone who could help us, she’s always been one of the club’s biggest supporters
and I know she wanted to make sure we could continue on this endeavor, we’re very grateful,” says Janke. Since June 2015, Harrington had offered the LVJWC a space at the Green Market on Thursdays, from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. “She offered us a corner,” says Alfieri. “We kind of grew and grew, expanded and expanded.”

When March and April approached, the group realized “We are huge,” says Alfieri. It got to a point when the group wanted to relocate to find a spot of their own. “We had expanded so much from the original space,” says Alfieri. “We felt we were taking advantage of her generosity. We took and took and took and took. She continued on page 6

Local Expert Shows NJ Parents How To Get The Most Money For Their Children’s College Education
ew Jersey parents suffering with finding ways to pay for their children’s college education can finally get the solutions to their college funding problems. Most families who earn $75,000 or more and own a home assume they are not eligible for financial aid. However, most families with income over $100,000 are actually eligible for some types of “need based” financial aid. They simply need to know how to get their fair share. According to Newell, there are several easy things parents can do to substantially increase the amount of money they get from colleges. For example, “There are several schools that historically give better financial aid packages than others,” says Newell. “If families do proper income and asset planning before filling out the forms, they can increase eligibility by thousands of dollars.” Newell offers a few simple tips to parents with college funding problems. “If a parent

has only half an hour to end their college funding problems, I would suggest the following: 1. Make sure they do not over-value their home on the financial aid forms. 2. Try not to save money in the child’s name as it weighs more heavily than the parent’s savings. 3. Don’t be afraid to negotiate with a college for a better financial aid package. Newell offers New Jersey parents with college funding problems a free booklet that explains the 9 most common college funding problems and solutions. Free copies will be distributed at the seminar listed below. Mr. Newell will be conducting a free onehour seminar for parents of college bound high school juniors and seniors at the following location: The Chester Public Library, on Wed., Oct. 26 from 7pm to 8pm. Reservation only! Seating is limited. Reserve your seat today by calling toll free 1-800-928-8464.

Local Synagogue Opens Up Virtual Classroom To Invite Flexibility Into Program
G
By Cheryl Conway etting to Hebrew School during the week can be difficult sometimes for parents who work full time or for students who are active with sports and after school activities. With a new virtual classroom option being offered at Temple Shalom in Succasunna, students can now have more flexibility and
tune in to their weekday lessons with less conflict. The reform synagogue is the first in the local area to offer such a convenient program. The Virtual Classroom Option is a platform through ShalomLearning which will allow Hebrew school students in grades three through seven to tune into their Wednesday lesson during a convenient day or time. Classes will still meet Sunday mornings and Wednesday afternoons 5 p.m. to 6:15 p.m. at the synagogue. Students who cannot meet on Wednesdays can opt to sign up for the distance learning option. “Our children are increasingly being pulled in many different directions in things they are doing,� says Rabbi David Levy, religious leader
at Temple Shalom. “I want religious education something that fits into their lives, rather than a burden to fit into their lives. I want it to be joyful, enriching.� With more modern means, virtual learning is “something we should try,� says Levy. “Clearly there are people wanting a solid Jewish education,� but they need flexibility or something that fits into their schedules. The “great benefit� with the virtual learning option is “these parents are able to give [children] a solid Jewish education that is flexible enough to fit into their lives they are living today,� says Levy. “I think we will see more participants with dual working families. If we can be supportive of these families, then we are serving

those people then that is one of our missions.� Getting to Hebrew school on Sundays has not been an issue as much as it has been on Wednesdays for dual working families, says Levy. “How do we best serve their needs?� he questions. “Having an online component was the best way to do this.� Lots of colleges are using the virtual classroom and it is growing in secondary education, why not religious learning? “We’re part of an early group of congregations that would dip their feet,� says Levy, who says its exciting to “be on the cutting edge. This is a very new thing to do.� A cohort of three to four students and a teacher will decide on a day and time for
their virtual lesson. The teacher will lead a Hebrew lesson using online technology such as PowerPoint, webinars and Facetime. Students can use desktop computers, laptops, Chromebooks or tablets, adds Levy. Their learning will mirror what the students are learning in the classroom. “Whether in person on Wednesday afternoon or vir-
tual for weekday, they’re getting the same curriculum, the same learning.� Students who agree to participate will work with approximately three or four other students and a teacher on a mutually agreeable day and time in the “comfort of their own living room in a time that fits into their needs instead of a fixed schedule,� continued on next page

15 have already signed up for the virtual setting. Participants will pay a small surcharge for the virtual classroom option to cover the technology costs to run webinars, PowerPoint screens and curriculum, says Levy. If cost is an issue, Levy
says “nobody should be denied a place at the table because of finances.� Alissa Okrent of Flanders, or Mrs. O, will be the assigned teacher for the virtual learning program. Teaching Judaic and Hebrew at Temple Shalom since

1995, Okrent did attend a training class through ShalomLearning to meet the creators, learn the technical system and how to access the online curriculum. “I am very excited about this program,� says Okrent. “ShalomLearning is a wonderful program that is comprehensive and well planned. I believe this opens an opportunity both for families to meet a variety of needs in the busy world in which we live. As a teacher, it provides me with a more personal educational relationship with my students. For me, "being" Jewish, is a feeling, as much as a lifestyle.� Okrent plans to offer three online classes broken up by grade level; third graders; fourth and fifth; and sixth and seventh. Each session will meet for about 50 min-
utes. “My intention is for each student to gain confidence, have fun while learning,� she says. Since it is her first year with this program, she plans to teach the Hebrew component on Wednesdays, concentrating on the Hebrew letters, reading the language and understanding and meaning of prayers; leaving the lessons on Judaic with its culture, religion and Israel news on Sundays. “I am following the core curriculum of the other teachers at Temple Shalom so communicating with them is the main guidance I will need for each of the distance classes,� she says. Her strategy will concentrate on “creativity, attentiveness, an open mind and joy,� she says. “I am honored to be
teaching this format,� she adds. “I love all elements of Jewish education, as I live my life by core Jewish values, this is an extension of meeting the needs of a changing world.� Levy adds, “In every aspect in what we do as a congregation, we try to focus on serving the needs of our congregation and serve what God wants us to do in the world. It’s a two way street. We look to serve our congregants and education of our children is one of our highest priorities.� Hebrew school is in session at Temple Shalom but virtual classes will begin after the High Holidays and continue through May. For more information about this new program, contact the Temple Shalom Religious School at 973-584-5666.

We were taking up too much space. “We were limited,” explains Alfieri. “Now we have our own space; we have our own hours; hours are more flexible.” Owners Karl and Janet Leitz offered the LVJWC its own space, right along the Columbia Trail where “it’s always hustling and bustling” with bikers, walkers and families, says Alfieri. The boutique focuses on high end thrift for women, as well as a selection of men’s and children’s items. “We need to stick with nicer labels since it is a boutique,” says Alfieri.” Some stuff

Crew, Banana Republic, Anne Taylor, Calvin Klein, Nautica, Polo Ralph Lauren, Children’s Place, Gymboree, Talbots with a designer rack featured soon. Racks “has beautiful stuff for affordable prices,” says Alfieri. “We are an upscale thrift boutique.” Prices for sale range from $3 to $20, says Alfieri. “You never know what you’re going to find in the bin,” says Alfieri, who donates about 10 hours a week at Racks. “What comes out of a bag, sometimes it’s a jack-

pot.” While they sell the premier items, Alfieri says Racks accepts all types of clothing since it donates the items not placed on the racks to Big Brothers Big Sisters. “We get 20 cents a pound from Brothers and Sisters,” says Alfieri. “Whether we donate it or keep it, we spread the wealth.” Profits from sales and BBBS pickups are distributed to the many organizations and charities that the LVJWC supports, such as the local coat drive, sneaker drive. Most of the financial proceeds support the town’s first responders, police officer vehicles, seniors, veterans and the schools, says Alfieri. “First aid, fire, police,” is the “the first order of business,” says Alfieri. “They work very hard to keep us safe and healthy.” For those who have items to donate, drop off at the store during store hours or place in the white bin outdoors in the back of the store. Shoes, housewares and bedding are accepted, not for sale in the store, but will be forwarded to BBBS. No bathing
suits, undergarments, stained, ripped items nor consignments accepted. All donations are tax-deductible. During its first year of business, Racks allocated $1,000 in proceeds. With fundraisers throughout the year, the LVJWC raised $46,000. This year, Alfieri’s goal is to raise $2,000 from Racks. “I would like to double it personally,” she says. Since the Racks survives with the help of volunteers, LVJWC is always looking for volunteers. LVJWC welcomes women of all ages, who can offer “new ideas, fresh concepts” on “something we can donate to or fundraise for,” says Alfieri. The group meets every second Thursday at Zion Church with 7 p.m. meet and greet and 7:30 p.m. meeting. Racks store hours are Mon- Fri., 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.; and Thurs., 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. during Green Market hours. For more information and to volunteer, contact racksthrift@gmail.com.

New Volleyball Club Raises The Level For Local Players
By Cheryl Conway or those who want to up their skills at volleyball, there is a new club in town just getting off the ground. Xtreme Volleyball Academy just opened its doors with a sneak peek event held Sat., Aug., 27. The new club is located on Hillcrest Ave., off of Route 10 West in Ledgewood. Programs are set to begin Sept. 1 with tryouts for club programs to begin Nov. 4. At the sneak peek, visitors were invited to meet volleyball coaches and staff, tour the gym and learn about the innovative programs, methodologies and technologies used by the U.S.A. Volleyball Team now being offered by this newly formed, educational, nonprofit organization.
Programs at this new facility will aim to take volleyball players to a greater level through professional instruction and personal growth, explains Co-Founder and Director of Operations Allison Hayward of Ringoes. “We feel we have created something special here since we plan to offer programs and instructions for every level of skills all while helping individuals and teams grow in their sense of sportsmanship, commitment, character, and community,” explains Hayward. “Our primary objective is to help players develop skills not only as athletes, but also as individuals. Life is about setting and achieving goals – we plan to do that every day here.” XVA will offer eight week club programs on the
national, regional and local levels. In addition, it will offer specialized academy programs for middle and high school players, as well as adult volleyball, beach, a boys’ team and the newest program – Parent Volleyball and Me. Co-Owner and Director of Coaching Braulio Rivera of Flanders, who developed the program explains, “The Parent Volleyball and Me is a one-of-a-kind experience for children ages five to ten to enjoy with their parents/guardians. It’s a very fun, positive instructional program that builds confidence and a bond between the child and parent/guardian.” A seasonal girls’ program, for girls 13-18, will run from Nov. through May in an effort to get local girls to com-
pete at nationals, explains Hayward. Tournaments will be held in Jan. 2017, with about five to seven single day events at the Ledgewood location and three to four away tournaments on weekends in the northeast such as Connecticut, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. The club program is sanctioned by the Garden Empire Volleyball Association (GEVA) area of USA Volleyball, says Hayward. At XVA, players will be divided into three levels of play based on skill and preference, explains Hayward. The purple level is the highest ranking team with three weekly practices; green team is the regional level with two weekly practices; and white team is a local team for players involved in other sports. In order to get on a team,
girls must try out during the week of Nov. 4, with 10 to 12 players selected per team. There will also be an eight week boys’ volleyball program starting in Sept. for ages 10 to 13. While the club just had its sneak peak, XVA did offer a 10 week Beach Season program this summer that ended in June, adds Hayward. Girls and boys, ages 11 to 17, participated in a training program to learn how to play volleyball on the beach. The 65 players scrimmaged each other and then some went on to play in tournaments at Seaside and Point Pleasant beaches. With other volleyball clubs as far as 40 minutes away, XVA is attracting volleyball players from local areas such as Roxbury, Mt. Olive, Mendham, Randolph,
Hackettstown, says Hayward. Like other sports, volleyball is offered through school and recreation programs but at XVA volleyball players can experience the greatest techniques in training and technology to bring them to continued on next age

that next level. “Recreation Volleyball is a great way to introduce any sport to any child in the beginning,” says Co-Founder and Club Director/Head Coach Cindy Rivera of Flanders. “However, for those that really love and develop a passion and truly want to excel in the game, continuous training and competing in the higher level of competition will help them become a much better and consistent player which will help our high school program competing in much more competitive levels.” XVA offers an innovative approach called Xcel and new equipment such as VERT. “The future of volleyball is here at XVA,” says Rivera. “We have developed Xcel, a training methodology that combines traditional best practices with the effective use of the newest technologies. Players learn correct volleyball technique, how to condition for strength, prevent injury, and maintain a positive attitude, while living a healthy lifestyle and working as a team.” Hayward explains the Xcel method combines “training, conditioning, methods of nutrition; measuring all of that, what their jumps are, what they’re strong in. They will get an overall evaluation of what they are doing.” Players will be trained at XVA then can go online at home for training and conditioning and to review videos “to see what they did wrong and how to accomplish their goals.” To measure a player’s jump, XVA will be using a new technology called VERT.
“Through the use of new equipment like VERT, the same technology used by the USA Volleyball Team for measuring jump performance, and Live Video Delay software, we enable our players to see real time action to assist them in improving performance,” says Rivera. “We feel we are combining the best of traditional and modern training methods and are really excited to have players come out and experience it for themselves.” XVA is an educational and instructional 501-C- 3 nonprofit organization dedicated to instructing volleyball players through expert training and competitive play. All money goes back into the 7,000 sq. ft. facility to pay for rent and coaches. The facility features an Olympic size court, lounge and WiFi. Players are required to pay for uniforms, equipment and tournaments. It was founded by Cindy and Braulio Rivera and Allison and Mark Hayward, along with coaches with decades of experience, a board of trustees who have extensive experience in the operation and management of Junior Volleyball Clubs, and volunteers who give their time and expertise behind the scenes. The Haywards’ 16-year old daughter had been playing club volleyball for five years when they met the Riveras. Cindy was Haywards’ daughter’s coach. “Cindy and I started brainstorming; next thing you know we are sitting in Ledgewood opening a volleyball club,” says Hayward.
“It’s different,” says Hayward, “it’s not your normal come to a practice or tournament.” It offers college recruiting advice like applying for scholarships, provides a videographer for recruiting videos and will host a College Panel Day. The Riveras both played varsity volleyball in high school, college and organized adults USVBA teams for 20 plus years; have been coaching volleyball at the high school and recreation levels for 10 years; and were involved in the Mt. Olive Recreation Volleyball, Mt. Olive Middle School Travel Program and Beach Volleyball to Mt. Olive and neighboring townships. Cindy is currently the president for the MOHS Volleyball Parent Booster Club. They also organized and ran a summer junior clinic benefiting the MOHS Volleyball program two years in the row. “This has become one of the biggest fund raising events we have to help MOHS's volleyball program,” says Rivera. They passed their love of the game to their daughter Brittany, a junior at MOHS, who plays on the MOHS Varsity Team and was chosen to be on the 2014 United States Junior Beach High Performance team. “Volleyball is a sport that can be taught to play regardless of your age,” justifies Rivera. “It's a sport that involved both mind and physical abilities. It's a very strategic game and it does take certain finesse as well.” For additional information on XVA and its upcoming programs, club news, schedule and events, visit www.xtremevbacademy.com or call (862) 219-5696.

Experience Comfortable Dine In, Variety At New Asian Cuisine Restaurant
By Cheryl Conway or those who enjoy Asian cuisine, there is a new family-owned restaurant in town.
Like a diner with endless choices, Asian Diner in Ledgewood has a full menu offering choices in Chinese, Japanese and Thai food. Located inside the Quality Inn off of Route 46, its grand opening was held Aug. 6. While take out is available, Asian Diner is noted for its relaxing sit down dining experience with music and a bar coming soon. “We want people to sit down and enjoy with music,” says Owner Lily Chen. “Dining more comfortable.” A family-owned business, Chen also owns Asian One in Pompton Lakes, a restaurant her family took over as the third owners in 2014. Asian One is more of a takeout style rather than sit-down. “We grow up with family so many years for restaurant experience,” says Chen, whose parents used to own a restaurant but are retired now. Chen’s husband, Zeng Kao, does most of the cooking while family and friends help to run the business, says
Chen. They decided to open a second restaurant, particularly in Ledgewood, after a friend recommended the area. Chen said I “think we can make business here.” The original plan was to offer Japanese style cuisine but when some told her “they can’t find best Chinese in this area,” she decided to add the Chinese and Thai cuisine to the menu. Some customer favorites so far include Thai Fu Noodle, Noodle Soup and great sushi. For dessert, Xango Cheesecake is a fried cheesecake served with ice-cream. “Customers say it’s a nice dessert,” says Chen. Asian Diner also offers Hibachi with meals cooked in the back like all other meals. There is no delivery service offered at this time. On Friday nights, customers can enjoy “nice live music,” with a soft piano and singing. “We like customers coming here sitting family style, to feel comfortable for family,” says Chen. “We offer the freshest ingredients on the market. We specialize in fine dining and take out.” Asian Diner is open seven days a week, 10:30 a.m. to
10 p.m. on weekdays; 10:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. on weekends, with the bar open even later. For discount, see coupon for $5 off $30 purchase or $10 off $50 purchase. Visit asiandinerledgewood.com for menu; call 973426-0688.

Pink Extensions Fundraiser For Breast Cancer Cure Kicks Off At Alfonso's Salon
ctober is Breast Cancer Awareness month. and throughout the month, Alfonso's Salon for the sixth year in a row is joining the fight to defeat breast cancer, the second leading cancer killer of women. 100 percent of donations and profits for this fundraiser will benefit the Susan G. Komen Foundation for the Cure of North Jersey. "We are proud to help where we can to raise funds to assist research, increase awareness and promote screenings," says Alfonso Merola, owner/stylist of Alfonso's Salon at Sutton Plaza. "Breast Cancer affects so many families. I have seen it touch the lives of many, and happily count many as successful survivors of this disease, because of early detection." The Salon has received much recognition for their efforts to help defeat breast cancer, and is offering pink hair extensions to commemorate the cause. The extensions are available in a shade of bright pink for $12 each. In order to eliminate any bank fees cash is required. The non-permanent extensions are a simple process and it only takes minutes to apply, Alfonso reports. "We compress the
pink extension into the hair without causing any harm to the client's own hair. They look great on women of all ages, from kids to seniors, with some customers getting two or three at a time. They can be easily cut to any length the client wants and will stay in as long as a moisturizing shampoo or conditioner is not used on the root area. Alfonso is particularly excited about working with groups for this worthy fundraiser. Last year he was invited to Morristown Medical Center to apply extensions to staff during the shift change outside the cafeteria. Cheerleaders and sports groups from the local high schools have also come in as a team to show their support. It's a fundraiser and a team building exercise all in one. The salon will gladly accept any donation even if customers dont want to take advantage of the hair extension services. A jar will be available at the front desk to anyone wishing to help the fight for a cure. In business for over 35 years, Alfonso's is a full service salon, specializing in complete hair services such as color, cuts, styling, and specialized smoothing systems such as Keratin Straightening System and Keratin Ex-
press as well as perms and conditioning treatments. Manicures, pedicures, and waxing services are also provided. Hair extensions come in many varied colors and are done all year round. Throughout his career, Alfonso has devoted his time to the betterment of the hair industry. He has done shows and demonstrations throughout New Jersey, has tought classes in N.Y. City, Boston, Atlantic City etc.

hen hunger strikes, it can be tempting to reach for the closest treat, even if it’s laden with fat and empty calories. Make it easier to enjoy better-for-you snacks with these three simple steps that appeal to your taste and your waist. 1. Know that choosing more healthy snacks can still be quick and convenient. Learn to recognize your hunger patterns and keep foods on hand to fit your cravings. For example, if you tend to need a mid-afternoon pick-me-up at work, prepare snacksize portions of finger foods that feel hearty without weighing you down. 2. Make flavor count in every bite. Watching what you eat doesn’t have to be bland. In fact, an eating plan that cuts back on your calorie intake is the perfect reason to pay more attention to what you eat and thoroughly enjoy it, rather than wasting a
Simple Steps To Smarter Snacking
portion of your daily consumption on foods that don’t taste great. 3. When your sweet tooth is screaming, answer it with the refreshing indulgence of a fruity dessert. Fruit-based desserts are naturally sweet and deliver some of the key nutrients your body needs, so you can feel extra good about bypassing other options laden with unhealthy ingredients. 3 Steps for a Snack With just three ingredients and three steps, it’s easy to choose and prepare a quick, healthy snack. All you need is celery, peanut butter and raisins. 1. Wash celery then cut stalks in half and trim to desired length. 2. Spread or pipe peanut butter into recessed side of stalks. 3. Sprinkle with raisins, as desired. Fill Up with Fruit Creating delicious desserts can often re-
quire a ton of time and a variety of complicated steps. Rather than wasting minutes making dessert instead of eating it, try Pineapple Cherry Minis made with Dole Canned Fruit, a convenient and easy ingredient to use in all of your dessert recipes. Pineapple Cherry Minis require just 20 minutes of preparation before chilling in the refrigerator, and the fruit makes them a healthier dessert option than most after-dinner sweets. For more quick and healthy dessert options, visit dolesunshine.com. Pineapple Cherry Minis Prep time: 20 minutes, Total time: 3 hours Servings: 12-14 1 can (20 ounces) Dole Crushed Pineapple 2 cans (6 ounces) Dole Pineapple Juice 1 package (6 ounces) cherry gelatin 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Acupuncture For The Treatment Of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
re you one of the 40 million Americans affected by GAD? If so, Acupuncture can be a powerful treatment, both for anxiety and depression. Anxiety seems to affect twice as many women as it does men. In Western medicine GAD is characterized by excessive anxiety and worry about everyday life events with no rhyme or reason for the worrying. People suffering from GAD seem to always expect bad things to happen and typically ruminate about such things as their health, their children’s safety, work, school and money. People who suffer with GAD, the anxiety is often unrealistic for the situation. Hence, life becomes a constant state of fear, anxiety, worry and dread ultimately interfering with their daily functions. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), GAD is viewed not as a brain disorder, but more as an inner organ dysfunction or imbalance. TCM holds that each of the 5 major organ systems (Kidney, Heart, Spleen, Liver and Lung) plays a vital role in the emotions. Emotions and organ systems health are intimately connected. These organs can develop imbalances and dysfunctions due to dietary, lifestyle, environmental and hereditary factors. For example, worry, dwelling too much on a particular subject and excessive mental work are symptoms of a Spleen system disorder according to TCM. Lack of enthusiasm and vitality, mental restlessness, depression, insomnia and despair are symptoms of a Heart system imbalance. Symptoms associated with a liver imbalance will manifest as anger, frustration, resentment, irritability, and flying off the handle. Lung imbalances typically manifest more as grief, sadness, melancholy and detachment. Lastly, with an imbalance of the Kidneys, a person may be very fearful, insecure, and aloof, isolated and have little to no willpower. The heart in TCM is said to store the spirit or Shen and in all anxiety cases, the Shen is disturbed. The heart “houses” the Mind and the state of Mind relates to the emotions of the Heart. Therefore, calming the Shen or Spirit will be a fundamental part of any anxiety treatment. Treating the

Heart/Shen system addresses emotional turmoil, thereby restoring balance, calmness and tranquility to both the physical and mental aspects of health. TCM classifies the cause of GAD based on the extent to which individual organ system or systems demonstrate signs and symptoms of disturbance and how their Qi (life force/energy) is affected. In anxiety, the most common injured organ systems are the Heart and Spleen. According to Chinese Medicine, anxiety is differentiated into the following types: 1. Heart and Spleen Qi deficiency: Pre-occupation, obsessive thinking (ruminating), aversion to speaking, inappropriate laughter, depression, palpitations, chest tightness, difficulty falling asleep, fatigue, poor appetite, abdominal distention, teeth marks and or a red tip on the tongue, pale tongue, and a weak pulse. 2. Kidney Qi deficiency: pre-occupation, feeling of fear and dread, and may be accompanied by low back and knee pain or weakness, low libido, frequent urination, cold hands and feet, difficulty staying asleep, tinnitus, a pale and/or swollen tongue and a weak pulse. 3. Liver Qi stagnation: pre-occupation, feelings of irritability, moodiness, poor appetite, severe PMS, hypochondriac pain or tightness (pain or tightness in the rib area), muscular tension which typically manifests in the neck and shoulder area, fatigue, alternating loose stools and constipation, a pale tongue with distended sublingual veins beneath the tongue, and a wiry weak pulse. 4. Lung Qi deficiency: pre-occupation, rapidly changing moods, sadness, and easily feeling grief and loss, inability to “let go”, aversion to speaking, shortness of breath, weak cough, sweating easily on exertion, throat discomfort, and a pale tongue and thin pulse. Acupuncture therapy, according to TCM, believes that health is dependent on the smooth flow of Qi – which when in good health moves in a smooth and balanced way through a chain of 14 major channels or meridians. By inserting fine, painless needles into specific acupoints which belong

to different meridians and organ systems, the body’s energy (Qi) is stimulated to start the healing process. For the best results of anxiety treatment I always recommend lifestyle and dietary changes in addition to Acupuncture and Chinese herbal formula treatments to help balance the Mind and Shen. In addition, learning yoga and meditation on how to control and relax the mind is extremely helpful. Combining these arts, dietary changes and regular Acupuncture treatment will provide a medication free alternative treatment for those who suffer from general anxiety disorder.

How To Protect Yourself Against Stomach Ulcers
id you know that a bacterium called Helicobacter pylori is the main cause of 60 to 80 percent of gastric ulcers, and of 80 to 85 percent of duodenal ulcers? The duodenum is the upper end of the small intestine. Normally, a layer of mucous protects the stomach and the intestine from the acidity of the gastric juice, a liquid secreted by the stomach glands during digestion. Helicobacter pylori weakens this protective layer by penetrating the mucus lining and creating open sores, or ulcers, in the gastrointestinal tract. In industrialized countries, close to 20 percent of people aged 40 and under are infected with this bacterium, and if affects close to 50 percent of people over the age of 60. Studies show that 20 percent of these people will develop an ulcer during their lifetime. Clinical studies have shown that probiotics can be useful in treating infections caused by Helicobacter pylori. Antibiotics are usually prescribed to eliminate Helicobacter pylori, but unfortunately, the success rate is only 74.8 percent. When a multi-strain probiotic supplement, such as Probaclac, is added, the treatment's efficiency increases to 83.6 percent. The fact that antibiotics cause several side effects is important to mention. These adverse effects, experienced by 38.5 percent of patients treated, include diarrhea, stomach pain, nausea and taste changes. When a multi-strain probiotic supplement is given along with the antibiotics, side effects are reduced and reported by only 24.7 percent of patients. Jolicoeur recommends Probaclac as the ideal solution since it provides probiotic complexes that are designed specifically for every age group: children up to the age of 15; adults (can be taken from the age of 15); and older adults (age 50 and up). "Adding a multi-strain probiotic supplement to the medication given to treat ulcers caused by Helicobacter pylori significantly increases its efficiency and tolerance," she said. More information and advice on probiotics is available at probaclac.ca.

Local Blood Drives Offered
ew Jersey Blood Services plans to conduct local blood drives which are open to the public. The following drives are scheduled: Mon., Sept. 26, Knights of Columbus 3665, Netcong, 3 p.m. to 9 p.m. Thurs., Sept. 29, Lincoln Equities, Rockaway, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. New Jersey Blood Services, a division of New York Blood Center (NYBC) is asking for help to maintain an adequate supply of all blood types, but especially O-negative – the “universal” blood which can be transfused into anyone in an emergency. In addition, hundreds of additional blood drives need to be scheduled to meet projected hospital demand. Current inventory of several blood types is running below the desired target level. “It’s simple: hospital patient demand for blood often outpaces our best efforts to recruit donors and schedule blood drives,” said NYBC Executive Director of Donor
Recruitment Andrea Cefarelli. “There are always reasons but we have to overcome that for the sake of hospital patients who need us.” “This is one of the toughest times of the year,” Cefarelli added. “We’re asking for our dedicated supporters to roll up their sleeves to make sure we’re able to provide our hospital partners with whatever they need to take care of their patients.” Blood products have a short shelf life – from five to 42 days, so constant replenishment is necessary. Each and every day there are patients who depend on the transfusion of red blood cells, platelets and plasma to stay alive. But blood and blood products can’t be manufactured. They can only come from volunteer blood donors who take an hour to attend a blood drive or visit a donor center. To donate blood or for information on how to organize a blood drive call 1-800933-2566; visit: www.nybloodcenter.org.

Cadets Keep Busy In NJ Wing Summer Camp
his summer has been a busy one for many young members of the Civil Air Patrol, or better known as cadets. The Civil Air Patrol Cadet Program runs all year round but when the weather is nice and students are out of school, the most exciting and unique events open up. One of the most recognized events in the Cadet Program is the NJ Wing Encampment. Each state has its own encampment, but this summer cadets from Morris County joined more than 100 other cadets from New Jersey and the tri-state area in a rigorous eight-day summer camp at Joint Base McGuire Dix, Lakehurst. Each day the cadets were woken up and hurried out to their formations while the morning was still pitch dark. The week consisted of activities such as physical training, obstacle courses, team building, safety trainings, drills and marching, room and uniform inspections, competitions and games between groups, orientation flights with CAP airplanes, educational tours with the Air Force and Army, educational classes and lectures in emergency services and
aerospace. Two unique events were provided to some cadets during this year's encampment: a military orientation flight on a C-17 and participation in an urban tactical operation. By the end of the week, the cadets had gained much knowledge and had experiences they would never forget. On day nine, all of the cadets graduated from the basic encampment. A ceremony was held for the parents and to congratulate the cadets and honor their hard work. Many parents noticed a positive change in their kids from character to motivation and many made friends to last into the future. This group of cadets is looking to come back next year and help to run encampment as staff. Many will agree that encampment was the highlight of their summer, yet there were a few other events of interest in the local area. The cadets participated with the Raritan Valley Composite Squadron in the Fourth of July Parade in Chatham. Some members of the squadron participated in a Urban Direction Finding (UDF) Course as
part of the Emergency Services mission of CAP. They learned how to find airplaneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Emergency Locator Transmitters (ELT) after an accident, how to read road maps and sectional maps, types of emergency services missions, communications basics, how to properly operate certain radios, and
much more. The Cadet Program, which is based in Chatham, continues on into the fall with more fun activities. For more information, contact Sachin Adbe at sachin.adbe@njwg.cap.gov; 862-345-6736.
