Pickleball Spreads Throughout Livingston With More Courts On The Way
By Cheryl Conway ith more and more players signing up and the move to dedicate courts in town, Livingston may soon be known as the hub for pickleball. What started out as an evening program with eight weekly sessions through the Livingston Senior Youth & Camp Leisure Services in April 2015, has grown from eight players to 140 players. A cross between tennis, badminton and Ping-Pong, pickleball is a fun paddle sport growing in popularity in town for all ages. One of the challenges has been trying to find enough court space to accommodate the growing number of pickleball players. Some organizers recently received some support from township officials to look into converting some tennis courts and ded-
icating some other courts just for pickleball. They also got some businesses to sponsor the local sport by supplying shirts, hats and banners and another to sell hard-to find paddles

Streamlining Technology In Classrooms Top Priority For New Livingston Superintendent
By Ashley Bouwense ew Superintendent of Livingston Public Schools Christina Steffner’s biggest goal this upcoming school year is to focus on making sure students and teachers have a positive experience with technology and, based on her record at the Hunterdon Central Regional School District, her expertise will prove to be most beneficial to the Livingston community of learners. Livingston’s Board of Education (BOE) hired Steffner March 2. Amongst many of the candidate’s factors that attracted the BOE, her experience in the areas of technology and teacher training stood out, according to BOE President Ron Spring. Steffner, who holds a master’s in educational administration and bachelor’s in health and physical education, served as superintendent of Hunterdon Central Regional School District since 2011, and she previously served as principal of Hunterdon Central Regional School District.
and embedded professional development for teachers earned Hunterdon Central High School the title “Best Practice Model for High School Redesign,” one of two schools in New Jersey that were selected for this honor in 2010. “[Livingston’s] one-to-one computing
initiative will be a big focus this coming school year,” Steffner said, “as we make sure that students have a positive experience with technology and that teachers have the professional development and training to use technology in meaningful ways in the continued on next page

continued from previous page classroom.” The Livingston BOE approved a one-toone computing initiative for students in grades seven to 12. As described on the Livingston Public Schools website, “Our mission, ‘To provide effective technology resources and training to foster a community of academic risk-taking, innovation, collaboration and global awareness,’ is the driving force behind this initiative.” Students from grades nine to 12 will receive a Microsoft Surface 3 laptop and students from grade seven to eight will be provided with a Lenovo Yoga 11e laptop; all students will be required to bring their devices to school every day, where they will learn to utilize the technology for a more efficient and effective educational experience. For more information about the one-toone computing initiative, visit www.livingston.org. Steffner officially started July 1, but she has been working closely with Livingston’s
interim superintendent, administrative teams and teachers since she was hired to get a feel for the school system and to ensure a smooth transition. She explained, “As I talk with people, I ask two basic questions: What are the things we need to preserve and protect, and what do they perceive as gaps and the biggest challenges [the Livingston School District faces].” Livingston’s nine public schools hold more than five thousand students compared to Hunterdon’s more than three thousand students. Although the Livingston District is a bigger undertaking, Steffner looks forward to working with faculty, staff and students to make the 2016-2017 school year a great one. “My goal this coming school year is to include continuing a listening tour with our teaching staff, students, administrators and township leaders,” said Steffner. “I think schools need to be a reflection of their community.”
Declutter Techniques And Gender Differences In Hearts Featured At NCJW Programs
ownsizing? Excessive clutter? Let NCJW/Essex show organization techniques. Join Deborah Gussoff, founder of In Order, a full-service personal organizing firm based in Northern New Jersey on Wed., Aug.10, from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. As a certified professional organizer, Gussoff is trained to help others conquer their organizing challenges and goals. She will discuss ways to declutter the home and pare things down. Learn tips, resources, and strategies for making the process of moving, downsizing, and organizing easier! Another program, Women and Heart Health - Do You Know the Truth?, is set for Tues., Aug. 16, from 7:15 p.m. to 9 p.m. Not only are heart attack symptoms different in men and women, but women are also treated differently than men. Dr. Marc Cohen, director of Cardiology at Beth Israel Medical Center will discuss and answer questions highlighting gender differences regarding prevention and treatment of cho-
lesterol, hypertension, chest pain and warning signs of heart attacks. Awareness that heart disease is the number one killer of women has nearly doubled in the last 12 years. However, most women fail to make the connection between heart disease risk factors and their personal risk of developing the disease. Women of all ages can benefit from this discussion, and will learn the best way to prevent a "broken heart." Both programs will be held at the NCJW/Essex Center for Women in Livingston. Registration is required and is open to all women in the community. To register or for additional information about this or other programs, call the Linda and Rudy Slucker NCJW/Essex Center for Women at 973994-4994, or visit www.centerforwomenNJ.org. Workshops are free for members of NCJW; $7 per workshop for non-members.

Livingston Schools Launch Computer Initiative
By Brianna Kudisch fficially launching this summer, the one-to-one computing initiative will put a laptop in the hands of every student grades seven-12 at two schools in Livingston. Livingston High School students will receive Microsoft Surface Three tablets and Heritage Middle School students will receive Lenovo laptops for digital learning and Internet access, starting in August. In response to a survey conducted in June 2015, teachers at both Livingston High School and Heritage Middle School strongly indicated that they would include more technology-driven education plans if given the necessary tools. As a result, the 1:1 computing initiative was produced. The brainchild of multiple people from the educational community, the 1:1 computing initiative included planning from administrators, Board of Education members, principals, media specialists, teachers, parents and input from students of the schools receiving the devices. It has taken two school years of research,
with planning including observation of other NJ districts in which technology has played an increasingly-larger role in everyday studies, such as Ridgewood High School in Ridgewood and Hunterdon Central Regional High School in Flemington. “The 1:1 computing initiative is the culmination of work by a dedicated technology committee and mission to provide effective technology resources and training to foster a community of academic risk taking, innovation, collaboration and global awareness,” said Marilyn Lehren, the manager of Communications/Community Outreach. At the total cost of $1.5 million dollars, the computing initiative will not raise additional taxes. Instead, the initiative will be paid for from a capital lease spread over three years. Additionally, existing budget lines will be reallocated. Assuming the new position of educational technologist will be Erin Borino, who has experience assimilating technology into educational areas. The district will also have four technology coaches, Ellen Fishter, Mitchell Wasserman, Dr. Dakashna
Lang, and Lori Perez, and one manager of technology, Tom Douglas. “People tend to be afraid that a 1:1 initiative and 21st century learning means that all students will be stuck like zombies behind a computer screen every day in class,” said Dr. Dakashna Lang, a Heritage middle school English teacher and subsequent technology coach. “But it’s actually the opposite of that.”
“What it really looks like is regular, engaging, stimulating teaching that we have all seen, except now with the ability to access resources at the touch of a button and to create in the classroom what previously could only be done at home," said Lang. Students will be paying a $62 usage fee in the event of the laptop requiring repair or replacement. Insurance will cover the lapcontinued on next page

They will return the laptop at the end of each school year. More than 2,000 devices are included in this initiative. Livingston schools ran a trial period, testing the devices to be used for Heritage and LHS during the month of January. “One of the great benefits of the 1:1 initiative,” said Mark Stern, the LHS principal, “is that even though we’re talking about technology, and it seems futurist and sci-fi, I actually think it makes learning more organic.”

Do You Remember Gruning’s?
he seven Gruning’s Ice Cream Parlors and Luncheonettes were spread out over Essex, Union and Morris Counties starting in 1910! For over 81 years, the name GRUNING’S evoked heartfelt nostalgia. From one’s youth: “My father used to take us there at night. It was our treat after dinner!” Fond family memories: “My family piled into the car on Sundays, or after a good report card!” When growing up: “We went there after school, after the movies, or for a date.” When coming of age: “We took our kids there, they loved it! I can still anticipate and taste the freshness, the friendly feeling I got when we walked in! It was OUR place” Above all the warm feelings, the unsurpassed CHOCOLATE HOT FUDGE SAUCE served with their
ice cream sundaes was Nirvana! Haven’t heard the name in a while? Well, the CHOCOLATE HOT FUDGE SAUCE IS BACK! NEW NAME, SAME GREAT ORIGINAL RECIPE! While the chain closed down some time ago, Jack Harkavy, a former owner, saved the recipes for years, never divulging them. He and his wife Barbara heard from many Gruning’s fans over the years asking about the chocolate hot fudge sauce, so they decided to produce it again. The NEW name is ORIGINAL 1910 FUDGE SAUCE. “We no longer have the name, but, as our label states, the recipe was devised in 1910 by WILLIAM GRUNING. It’s second to none”, says Mr. Harkavy. Available at stores in this area. See the ad in this issue. Will ship anywhere. www.original1910fudgesauce.com.

continued from front page trying to promote the game; he hosted an exhibition clinic at the July 4 celebration at Memorial Park Tennis Courts, and has planned another demonstration during the UNICO Italian Festival at St. Philomena’s at the end of September. “We have been trying to promote pickleball in any way we can with a goal of getting the town of Livingston to eventually build dedicated pickleball courts,” says Garber. “We have talked to the mayor about being part of his renovation ideas at Riker Hill Art Park and he likes it.” The points discussed and solidified with Livingston officials are that the pickleball lines will be painted on all four courts at the Northland Pool Tennis Courts and at Memorial Park High School tennis court. The timeline for painting is not yet determined, says Garber, maybe within the year, and until the lines are painted, “we have permission to tape pickleball lines on all four courts at Northland.” Also, with the future renovation of the Heritage Middle School Tennis Courts, eight dedicated pickleball courts will be built on the site of two tennis courts. “Our goal is to amicably co-exist with tennis while becoming the number one pickleball town in New Jersey,” says Garber. “I believe we are on our way.” A paddle sport created for all ages and skill levels, pickleball has simple rules which makes the game easy for beginners to learn, but can turn into a competitive, fast paced
game for experienced players. For Garber, the speed and skill needed to play and have fun is a perfect fit. “It starts off like tennis and ends up like ping pong,” Garber explains. An “underhand serve,” starts the game. “It’s like a chess match,” he explains. “Good for eye-hand coordination,” currently players range from 20 years old to age 84 in town. When Garber retired more than four years ago from the insurance brokerage business, Garber says he was hoping to get to the basketball courts and tennis courts a few times a week. “I was always involved in athletics,” he says, but injuries curtailed him from going to the gym. Ten years prior he had ruptured his Achilles’ tendon, he says, and also had a herniated disc and spurs in his shoulders. What’s nice about pickleball is the “court is much smaller,” one third the size of a tennis court. Players use a small wood or graphite racket and a whiffle ball. “I said I could do this,” says Garber. “Pickleball is not that taxing on the body.” He’s been playing for seven months. “Down south in Florida, it’s huge,” says Garber, “with 100 courts; people in line waiting to play.” Pickleball has since followed the Florida snowbirds north to Livingston,
explains Garber. Since there are no designated pickleball courts in town, Garber brought down a string line and clamp to pinch down the net, and some chalk to draw lines on the tennis courts to turn them into the dimensions to play pickleball. As the season grew colder, playing became a challenge. With no indoor space available, Garber went to the senior coordinator Lilliana Branquinho of the Livingston Senior Camp; Adult Enrichment Program, to request indoor space and got approval to use courts at the Monmouth Court Gym one morning a week through the winter. Since there is no cost to play, Garber sought out some sponsorships so players can purchase t-shirts for $10 and other items like hats to offset costs for tape used to convert the courts as well as extra paddles and balls he provides to beginners. “When you come to play with us you don’t need to bring balls,” says Garber. “All you need is a pair of sneakers. Eventually you want to buy a paddle, but we have one to borrow.” High Country Ski and Tennis in Livingston has been selling pickleball paddles at discount prices or players can order one online. Bruce Bayer, one of the pickleball players who owns Alden Graphics, has been getting t-shirts made at cost; A Plus Physical Therapy in Livingston is supplying the continued on next page

shirts, hats and banners that say “Livingston Pickleball.” On June 23, the pickleball regulars were surprised when Pickleball Pro Prem Carnot, who was touring around to offer clinics, “stopped by and played with us,” says Gerber. Even the mayor “has been down and he’s played,” says Garber. About 54 percent of the players in Livingston are women, as well as several married couples. Pickleball is a game for all ages and all skill levels. Anyone interested in playing should go to the Northland Pool Tennis courts at 10 a.m. on Sat., Mon. or Wed. and see the pickleball players in action. They’re the ones in the red Livingston pickleball shirts. For beginners, players are eager to offer instruction and there are extra paddles available to use. Pickleball was invented in 1965 on Bainbridge Island, a short ferry ride from Seattle, WA.

creating game. One explanation for the name of the sport was derived from Pritchard’s dog, Pickles, a cocker spaniel who would chase the ball and run off with it. To Garber, playing pickleball has become much more than a sport. “It takes a lot of effort to do this,” says Garber, who refers himself as the CEO, CFO, maintenance boy, to name a few when it comes to managing the pickleball program. “It’s a very social atmosphere,” he says. The courts are divided into levels: level one, which is beginner, to level five, a master. He considers himself a “solid four.” Gerber says, “I can play it. It’s not a sport where I think I’m going to hurt myself. Unlike tennis, where you can get tennis elbow, you are not going to get tennis elbow and you are not hurting the shoulder and you are not running around a big court. “It’s good for the kids for hand, motor skills,” continues Garber. “It’s great for seniors, for those at card tables can be out playing a game.”

Color Stress Away At Livingston Public Library
he Livingston Library’s adult coloring program has had a successful couple of sessions, and, has just announced new dates for July. Adult coloring has grown tremendously in popularity across the country, coloring books are huge bestsellers, and coloring clubs have mushroomed around communities. Studies show that coloring has a calming effect on mood, improving energy levels and even on how well we sleep. The American Library Association praises these programs as a way to create community, encourage creativity, and allow for a safe and relaxing way for adults to socialize. A 2012 study published in Psychological Science showed that a mindless activity may indeed spark creativity: Researchers showed that a non-demanding activity like showering, gardening, and perhaps coloring, could lead to productive mind-wandering and creative
problem-solving. Says Archana Chiplunkar, the librarian who coordinates the sessions, “besides offering a short escape from screens and devices, and a chance to unplug, coloring offers an appeal to adults who may want to be creative but don’t think of themselves as artistic.” Ruth Kane, one of the regulars in the program says she finds “the coloring very addictive and calming and also loves that it offers her an hour to socialize!” Some participants put up the colored sheets on their refrigerator, others decorate their walls with it; one of the more creative has turned them into laminated place mats! Archana adds, “we hope you come by for one or more of these sessions, for an hour of calm, creativity, and camaraderie; the three Cs of coloring.” Coloring books/sheets and supplies will be provided, along with some relaxing music.
No experience necessary. Sessions are drop in, no registration required and will be held on the following
dates: Monday evening, 7 p.m. to 8 p.m., July 25; Thurs, July 28, 11 a.m. to noon.

Blue Light And Your Eyes: What You Need To Know
y the time average American children reach age 17, their eyes will have spent the equivalent of nearly six years looking at digital devices, according to findings from a new survey by VSP Vision Care. While the survey shows that parents are concerned with increasing screen time, it found that nearly 60 percent have little to no awareness of blue light -- the high-energy light emitted from digital devices -- and its impact on vision. As blue light enters the eye, it causes visual strain because it is defocused in front of the retina and scatters, creating an effect visually perceived as glare. The eyes are then forced to work overtime to focus and process the wavelengths of light. From smartphones, to tablets, laptops, televisions, and even CFL and LED lighting, today’s family is surrounded by devices that produce blue light. As we spend increasing amounts of time staring at screens, blue light exposure is reaching unprecedented levels. This has led to an alarming increase in reports of digital eye strain, especially amongst children who are experiencing tired, sore eyes, headaches and trouble focusing. “At home, in classrooms and at work, our eyes are exposed to blue light,” says VSP optometrist, Dr. Gary Morgan. “Technology continues to change the way we live and allows us to be more efficient and connected, but despite
its benefits, we must be mindful of the impact of increased blue light exposure on our eyes.” Dr. Morgan offers the following tips to reduce blue light exposure and maintain good eye health. • Get an Eye Exam: An annual trip to the eye doctor is critical for the entire family. Ask your eye doctor about the best options to help reduce eye strain, including eyeglass lenses with coatings that reflect and absorb blue light, like Sharper Image TechShield. • Observe the 20/20/20 Rule: Give eyes a break every 20 minutes and spend 20 seconds looking at something at least 20 feet away. • Maintain Digital Distance: Find a comfortable working distance from your screen. This is especially important for children, since the intensity of light increases exponentially the closer our eyes are to light sources. Children have shorter arms and therefore receive a more intense dose of blue light from devices. They should hold devices as far away from their eyes as is comfortable. • Lower Screen Brightness: Turn down the brightness level of device screens to reduce blue light exposure, especially during evening hours. • Limit Screen Time Before Bed: Blue light can slow melatonin production, which helps us sleep. Reducing exposure to blue light a couple of hours before bed may make

it easier to go to sleep. More information about the effects of blue light and protection options can be found at SharperImageVision.com. “While medical research continues to study possible long-term health impacts of blue light, we can take practical steps to reduce exposure, ease digital eye strain and maintain good vision,” says Dr. Morgan.

he arrival of cooler weather marks a prime time to plant bulbs that will bloom come spring and summer. Bulbs should be planted as soon as the ground is cool, ideally when temperatures average between 40 and 50 F. Just be sure to plant bulbs at least six weeks before the ground freezes for optimal success. Always
follow the bulb distributor’s guidelines for planting, including suggestions regarding spacing and soil depth. Remove any weeds and loosen the soil to get started. In addition, think about mixing in compost or other organic matter to enrich the soil if it lacks nutrients.

CCM Employees Honored For Saving Lives With CPR
orty-one individuals and organizations in New Jersey were recently honored at the American Heart Association 2016 New Jersey American Heartsaver Awards for their life-saving efforts. Included among them were three County College of Morris (CCM) employees who assisted with saving the life of another staff member. David Ackerman, of Morris Plains, a security officer at CCM, came to the aid of Joan Cunningham, of North Caldwell, then dean of the Division of Health and Natural Sciences, when she suffered a heart attack during a meeting at the college, collapsing and becoming unconscious. First, Dr. Dwight Smith, of Randolph, vice president of Academic Affairs, responded by starting immediate CPR as soon as he saw Cunningham collapse. Soon after, Ackerman, along with Security Sergeant Charles Munk, of Hackettstown, rushed to the scene prepared with an AED in hand. Ackerman and Munk applied the AED which administered a shock. Soon after, the ambulance squad, paramedics and police arrived and Cunningham was transported to
the hospital. The American Heart Association’s American Heartsaver Awards is held annually to commend individuals, organizations and schools throughout the Garden State for taking extraordinary steps to strengthen the American Heart Association Chain of Survival or for rescue efforts that saved a life of someone experiencing a cardiac emergency. The awards ceremony was held earlier this month at the Robert Wood Johnson Hamilton Center for Health & Wellness in Mercerville. Nearly 350,000 people suffer cardiac arrest outside of a hospital every year, and only 10 percent survive. Given immediately, CPR doubles or triples survival rates and executing the Chain of Survival can save thousands of lives annually. The American Heartsaver Recognition Program is an initiative supporting the American Heart Association’s efforts to strengthen the Chain of Survival to improve the cardiovascular health of all Americans while reducing death and disability from heart disease and stroke by 20 percent by the
year 2020. Anyone can learn CPR and everyone should.

The drive will benefit more than 10,000 elementary and middle school children of ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) and families in poverty throughout the northern New Jersey region. United Way Tools for School seeks to lessen the strain on already strapped house-
T
hold budgets. Last year, on average, families with children in K-12 in the United States spent $98 on school supplies such as backpacks, notebooks and pencils, according to the National Retail Federation. That does not include electronics, clothing and accessories. “ALICE families that are working hard but can’t keep up with the high cost of living are faced with having to choose between buying school supplies or paying for basic bills,” United Way Senior Vice President Kiran Gaudioso said. “Together, we can help ease this financial struggle and give
MUA Seeks Bulk Compost Purchasers
he Morris County Municipal Utilities Authority is seeking some new customers for its vegetative waste program. In particular, the MUA is looking for “bulk” haulers or purchasers – those who would come to the county site to buy anywhere from several hundred to several
thousand yards of materials, particularly unscreened compost. The MUA has two facilities in Morris County in Parsippany and Mt. Olive. Register with the MUA program. To register or get more information, contact Steve Adams at 973-631-5109.
lowing school supplies: backpacks, lunch boxes, binders, three-ring notebooks, book covers, filler paper, pocket folders, composition and spiral notebooks, index cards, calculators, pencils, pencil cases, pencil sharpeners, erasers, pens, highlighters, crayons, markers, colored pencils, construction paper, glue, tape, rulers, dry erase markers, and scissors. In addition, school nurses have asked for personal care items such as toothbrushes, deodorant, Band-Aids, and kindergarten and first grade-aged children’s underwear and socks. Gift cards that can be used to purchase items such as shoes and clothing are also appreciated. Last year, with the help of 292 volunteers, supplies valued at $114,000 were collected and distributed to 55 elementary and middle schools and 14 nonprofit agencies throughout the northern New Jersey region. For more information about making donations, visit www.UnitedWayNNJ. org/ToolsforSchool, email Lisa.Galonardo@UnitedWayNNJ.org or call 973993-1160, ext. 503.
students the basics to start off the school year on the right track.” United Way is making it easier to make donations by partnering with YouGiveGoods.com again, which allows donors to make an online purchase of supplies that will be delivered automatically to United Way. Donations can be made by visiting www.UnitedWayNNJ.org/ToolsforSchool. In addition, donations will be accepted throughout the five-county region. The following is a list of local drop-off locations. Morris County: On Thurs., Aug. 18, from 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., donations can be dropped off at Housing Partnership in Dover. Suburban Essex County: on Mon., Aug. 29 from 9:30 a.m. to 11 a.m., donations can be dropped off at the United Way office in Montclair. Warren County: On Tues., Aug. 16, from 9 a.m. to noon, donations can be dropped off at Taylor Street School in Washington. Based on the needs expressed by local educators, United Way is collecting the fol-

Magaletta Transforms Properties To One-Of-A Kind Masterpieces
By Cheryl Conway ustom, creation, transformation, specialization, originality and endless options come to mind when describing the services provided at Magaletta Design Environment in Parsippany. With 25 years in the industry, business owner Matthew Magaletta of Florham Park knows how to transform any property or backyard into a sensational yet functional space that carries with it that “wow� factor with any glance of the eye. Magaletta Design Environment is a full landscape design, custom pool builder specializing in outdoor kitchens, full masonry work, decks, outdoor lighting, lawn maintenance, waterfalls and just about everything for outdoor properties. Magaletta Designs is not a “typical� landscaping company. “There’s a lot of landscapers out there,� says Magaletta. Anyone can cut lawns or plant bushes. “People call me when they want their properties and backyards to stand out beyond the rest. When they want to wow their neighbors, that’s when they call me in.� Involved in landscaping since he was 13, Magaletta started out cutting lawns for neighbors. He worked with his neighbor who was a landscape designer.
“I loved working outside,� explains Magaletta. “I took a liking to it,� and continued throughout high school and college. His experience and passion for the landscaping industry “just grew and grew and grew,� he says. “I have the eye for it,� he adds. “Everyone has their niche in life; this is my niche. I can create anything and turn it into a work of art.� Unlike other landscape companies, at Magaletta, “We specialize in custom designs for our clients,� he says. To ensure that customers like the project that is planned, Magaletta provides a 3D video design to the customer. “We show them a 3D design,� so they can see what their house will look like on the outside when the project is completed. While other companies offer a 3D video, Magaletta’s “specialty design is quite spectacular,� he says. Most of Magaletta’s client base is for private homes in Morris and Essex counties but he has done some industrial work such as the landscaping and design at Park Savoy in Florham Park. “We work where the client wants us,� says Magaletta, adding that it will travel even further like to South Jersey if requested. No matter the locale, “every job we are doing is a cus-
tom project,� he says. “We custom to customers’ likes and wants. He uses all kinds of products and equipment, all different patios and paver stones. All of the lighting work is LED; “that’s the norm now.� Working in the landscaping business has been enjoyable for Magaletta. “What I enjoy the most is going to my client’s house and transforming their properties to showcases in the neighborhood. I feel proud that my signs are on their properties. I become personable with clients; they become my friend.� Homeowners will not be disappointed contracting with Magaletta for all of their outdoor property needs. “We are a reputable company with over 25 years of experience,� says Magaletta. “We are honest, we are knowledgeable and you will have an owner, myself, on the projects.� For the month of September, Magaletta is offering three different promotions: 10 percent off any landscaping construction job; $150 off landscaping design of property; or buy 10 LED lights and get three free. For more information, go to magalettadesigns.com. To arrange for an appointment or contract a project, call 973539-1818.

Caldwell University Offering BA In Applied Language
aldwell University is offering a new Bachelor of Arts in Applied Language, which will include two different tracks. The Helping Professions track combines Spanish courses with psychology and sociology courses. The Public Policy track combines Spanish courses with political science and sociology courses. Dr. Domenic Maffei, chair of the modern languages department and professor of political science, says Applied Language graduates can work in a variety of different sectors including the government, education, information and library services, nonprofits, business, public relations, international business, travel and tourism, communications, advocacy and social services. He points out that, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, jobs will increase for health educators, community health workers and social and human services assistants. “Both tracks in the Applied Language major prepare students in these fields.” Maffei said the unique program is cost and time effective because it combines various fields into one major, allowing students to pursue other academic areas of interest. Applications are now being accepted for the fall semester. To find out more email onlineadmissions@ caldwell.edu.

Did You Know?
ransplant shock occurs when plants adversely respond to being moved from one place to another. Plants may need to be moved for a variety of reasons, but homeowners should be especially careful when moving plants around their properties. When moving a plant, do your best to avoid disturbing the root, even resisting the urge to shake dirt off the roots. Keep the rootball wet throughout transplanting, too, as roots that dry out are more susceptible to damage than those that remain moist. Transplant shock is less likely to occur if most of the roots are moved along with the plant, so try to dig up as many of the roots as possible before picking up the plant and moving it. Water also can help prevent transplant shock by helping the plant acclimate to its new location, so remember to water the plant after it has been moved.

resources at public, private and Catholic institutions. A strong benefit is the innovative experiential and internship opportunity requirement for students. These online classes are accelerated with courses running every seven weeks. Students who choose to attend fulltime will be able to complete their degree in just one year. The seven-week course rotation allows students to enter the program at the beginning of any seven-week session, maximizing the flexibility and appeal of the program. Dr. Nancy Becker, coordinator of the program, says the program has been carefully designed to give students the
theoretical background they need, complemented by experiential learning opportunities individualized to meet their interests. “We are excited to be able to offer students this innovative program and the chance to advance in a higher education career and work in a dynamic setting day in and day out.” Applications are now being accepted for the fall semester.

Homeless Solutions Earns Four Star Rating
omeless Solutions’ strong financial health and commitment to accountability and transparency have earned it a four-star rating from Charity Navigator, America’s largest independent charity evaluator. Since 2002, using objective analysis, Charity Navigator has awarded only the most fiscally responsible organizations a four-star rating. “Homeless Solutions exceptional fourstar rating sets it apart from its peers and demonstrates its trustworthiness to the public,” according to Michael Thatcher, president & CEO of Charity Navigator. “Only a quarter of charities rated by Charity Navigator receive the distinction of our four-star rating. Homeless Solutions continues to be a part of a preeminent group of charities working to overcome our world’s most pressing challenges. Based on its four-star rating, people can trust that their donations are going to a financially responsible and ethical charity when they decide to support
Homeless Solutions.” Homeless Solutions has had a four-star Charity Navigator rating for 12 of the past 14 years. “It’s important our donors trust that we’re using their donations wisely in our work to provide shelter, services, and supportive housing to homeless and low income people,” said Homeless Solutions Chief Development Officer Stephanie Cicale. “Our four-star Charity Navigator rating demonstrates to our supporters our good governance and financial accountability.” Homeless Solutions is a private, nonprofit organization that has been helping the homeless and working poor in the Morris County area since 1983. Their staff and programs give people the tools they need to rebuild their lives, and as working people move to independence, Homeless Solutions provides sustainable homes people can afford.

aking the family on a road trip? When kids are in tow, an extended car ride means thinking ahead to help avoid headaches and squabbling over personal space. A little planning can go a long way in making the trip enjoyable for passengers of all ages. To minimize backseat frustrations and maximize fun on the open road, consider these tips: • Babies and Toddlers: Manage meltdowns by factoring in nap time when planning your route. Drive while little ones are sleeping and take breaks that coincide with their regular eating schedule. • The Grade School Set: Let each child pack their own road trip survival backpack. They can fill it with their favorite carfriendly snacks, crafting gear and tech gadgets. Make sure items are fully charged and bring along extra batteries. Think about bringing a new book or snack they haven’t seen before to keep things interesting when their interest begins to wane. • Tweens and Teens: This age group has a lot of opinions. To help keep the peace,
Tips For Better Family Road Trips
give them a say in some car-related activities. Let them choose the playlist for one hour or use an app to geo-locate a restaurant for lunch. • At Every Age: Safety should always be at the forefront of every road trip. Keep a first aid kit handy and have extra bottled water in the trunk. Make sure every passenger is wearing a seat belt or is properly secured in his or her car seat before putting the car in motion. Infants should ride rearfacing until at least two years of age, or until they have reached the maximum height and weight limits of rear-facing car seats, according to The American Academy of Pediatrics. Choose a car seat designed with both safety and comfort in mind, such as the Graco Extend2Fit 3-in-1 Car Seat, which provides five inches of extra legroom and six recline positions. It can be used in rearfacing mode up to 50 pounds and forward facing in a 5-point harness up to 65 pounds, and its harness and headrest are adjustable as your child grows. Additional car seat information can be found at gracobaby.com.
