Millburn Youth Helps Holocaust Survivors
By Jason Cohen ith Holocaust survivors dying every day, it is crucial to help the ones that are still alive. Well, one young girl from Millburn is doing exactly that. For her Bat Mitzva project, Eliana Warner, 12, decided to work with the non-profit organization Blue Card, which provides aid to survivors. On Jan. 16, her synagogue, Congregation B’nai Israel in Millburn, held Mitzva Day, where she and her friends made care packages and wrote notes for survivors. “I really wanted to work with them because impoverished Holocaust survivors are getting a chance to tell their stories,” Warner said. “I think a lot of people should help because not only does it help survivors, but it helps people remember the Holocaust.” She also created a fundraising page for donations.

Her goal was to raise $2,000 and it has already exceeded it with $2,077. Blue Card provides services to Holocaust survivors in the U.S. to assist with their needs such as paying rent, utilities, food, dental care, as well as for emergencies such as medical care and special equipment. Many of the survivors they help live in the tristate area. It has distributed nearly $30 million to Holocaust survivors to date, with 100 percent of INSUR

annual contributions made by individuals going directly to survivors.” Warner told the “Millburn News” that her cousin Chana Friedman inspired her Bat Mitzva project. Friedman, of Brooklyn, was taken to Auschwitz at age 11 and met Warner for the first time in September. She explained that she had seen Holocaust survivors speak and read books, but hearing it from a family member meant so much more. Her perspective on

life drastically changed. “I was shocked. I was like how could this have happened?” she said after hearing her cousin’s story. She saw Freidman again in November and they got to know each other more. Her story almost had Warner in tears, but she made sure to keep her composure. She noted that Friedman survived because she worked in a factory that made guns.

By Jason Cohen e never played volleyball competitively, yet Alanson Partelow spent the past 45 years coaching the sport. On Jan. 18, the Essex County Freeholders recognized him for his service. “It was really nice to be honored,” Partelow said. “Over the years, they (the freeholders) have been very good to all of the athletic programs.” Partelow, 70, of Westfield, grew up in Union Township. He retired in 2009 after 40 years as a teacher and coached for 45 years until he stepped down last year. His first love was soccer and he always envisioned himself coaching. Well, he was half right. At Trenton State College, now The College of New Jersey, he played soccer and helped the team win the conference championship in 1965. He graduated in 1969 with a degree in physical education. Later that year he joined Millburn High School as a physical education teacher and the following year got his first coaching job as an assistant coach for the boys’ soccer team.
Longtime Volleyball Coach Honored By Essex County However, in 1970 he was introduced to volleyball at the annual coaches’ conference at Rutgers University. It was there where he met a former Olympic volleyball coach Steve Mose. Mose spoke highly of the sport and convinced him to look into it. Partelow enrolled in numerous volleyball clinics and was hooked. A year later, Millburn High School started a girls’ volleyball team and he was named coach. So, while manning the reigns of the boys’ soccer team, he took on a new challenge. “It [volleyball] just sort of caught my eye and fancy,” he said. “I just like the fact that you are teaching kids who started at ground zero a sport they knew nothing about and you are able to see the progress they make. It was in its infancy in the state of New Jersey.” While volleyball was still relatively new for him, his background as a coach helped. He described himself as low key, but always preached that the little things matter. “I never got mad at a player for doing something wrong because I always

I’m really glad I got to know her because I learned a lot from her.” In addition to Friedman, she also spoke with her friend’s grandmother
who is also a survivor. She stayed alive by hiding in a small room in a basement and ate one scoop of food a day. According to Warner, she is now grateful for everything she has and hopes her friends and other young people learn how important it is to appreciate life. Her work to help survivors has not gone unno-
knew they were trying their best,” he explained. In 1980 Millburn started its girls’ soccer program and of course, he was named coach. Under his guidance, the team won two Northern Hills Soccer Conference titles. Then in 1988 he transferred to Livingston High School to teach, but remained the coach at Millburn. But, things got tricky in 1997, when the state mandated that volleyball and soccer both be played in the fall. He had a tough choice to make. “I had to make a decision,” he recalled. “We were fortunate to have girls that were interested. We had a core of kids who really loved the sport.” His coaching expertise continued as he also led the LHS girls’ soccer team to three Essex County championships in 1991, 1992 and 1993. Additionally, he coached the LHS girls’ volleyball program in 1995, and with the assistance of the late Bob Cece, started the LHS boys’ volleyball program in the spring of 2000. Throughout his tenure at Livingston, the boys’ and girls’ volleyball teams won
12 conference championships, eight Essex County championships, three sectional championships and two state championships. Partelow was the recipient of numerous awards including Coach of the Year 1993; New Jersey Star Led-
ger State Coach of the Year for Girls 2004; and Boys 2008 and many more. Looking back on his illustrious career he is proud of what he accomplished. Over the years he formed many close bonds with his players and has attended

Fly Red For Heart Disease To Benefit Saint Barnabas Medical Center Heart Center
T
By Maryanne Christiano-Mistretta o raise support and awareness for heart health, members of the Saint Barnabas Medical Center, Livingston, plans to host the third Fly Red for Heart Disease event. This indoor cycling event planned for Sun., Feb. 26, features three different 45-minute cycling classes from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. at Millburn Flywheel in Millburn. The event is hosted by Dr. Joel Braverman, anesthesiologist for the Medical Center’s Cardiothoracic Intensive Care Unit (CTICU); Janet, Elle, and Amanda Braverman; Margie Heller, administrative director of Community Health and Outreach, and Daniel Weiss; and Dr. Alan Garten, chair
of radiology. Heller, who got involved with the event last year said, “We like spinning and wanted to do something for cardiac, so we decided to do an event that we could put out to the community and engage our employees.” No stranger to raising money, Heller wanted to turn something bad into awareness when her brother died at the age of 54 from a sudden cardiac death from hypertrophic myopathy (HCM), a disease in which the heart muscle, myocardium, becomes abnormally thick or hypertrophied. “I was looking to do something in his memory,” she said. “We raised money for the cardiac intensive care unit to purchase recliners to benefit patients.” Braverman’s personal
reason for getting involved in the cause is because he lost his dad to heart disease – at the age of 46. “Turning 50 himself, it’s been on his mind,” said Heller. “He felt like he really wanted to give back and do something to make people aware. We’re trying to get the word out.” The Fly Red event will raise money for FFR – Fractional Flow Reserve. FFR is a technique used in coronary catheterization to measure pressure differences across a coronary artery stenosis, narrowing, usually due to atherosclerosis, to determine the likelihood that the stenosis impedes oxygen delivery to the heart muscle. “It enhances patient care,” Heller said. Last year Fly Red raised

close to $42,000. As of now, it is $27,000 with a month to go. “The most important thing is to get out and exercise,” said Heller. “Doctor Braverman has two daughters. I have a son. And our nephews are there. It’s all ages. It’s more of a family event. You don’t have to be an avid cycler, just get on the bike and cycle. There’s every shape there. It’s a
low-pressure event. It’s about getting out and doing something for yourself. It raises awareness. Our big push for St. Barnabas is to keep our communities healthy and safe. Our motto is ‘Let’s Be Healthy Together.’” The cost per each cycling session is $100. All participants will receive a t-shirt. Light refreshments will be served. Flywheel will pro-

U.S. Power Squadron Offers State Boating Safety Course
N
orthern New Jersey Sail & Power Squadron, a unit of the United States Power Squadrons (USPS), plans to offer the New Jersey State Police approved Boating Safety Course at James Caldwell High School from 7 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. beginning Tue., March 7. The course taught by certified instructors licensed by the State of NJ, and which meets all the mandatory requirements necessary for obtaining a NJ State Boating Safety Certificate, will run every Tuesday evening for seven weeks which includes a night for review, and a night for the required state
examination. The cost of the course is $98. Legislation in NJ was passed a number of years ago requiring all boaters, 16 years of age or older, operating a power driven vessel including a personal watercraft (PWC), to complete a boating safety course. The legislation requires a minimum of eight hours of instruction with at least six hours of in-classroom study and a proctored examination. Those successfully completing the course will receive a NJ Marine State Police certificate that must be in the operator’s possession when on the waters of the state. Failure to exhibit the cer-
tificate is presumptive evidence that the person has not completed an approved boating safety course and is subject to a fine. This certificate is separate from the license required for boating on lakes. Registration is made through the Continuing Education office at James Caldwell High School, after 6 p.m., Mon.-Thur. Call (973)228-2092; email: http://www.cwcboe.org/continuinged.

The third Main Stage show of the season will be Joe Orton’s outrageous farce What The Butler Saw, set to open on Sep. 6. In the fall, Shakespeare in Love will take the stage and transform the F.M. Kirby Shakespeare Theatre into an Elizabethan playhouse. Performances are set to begin on Oct. 11. To finish the season, the Theatre is thrilled to present It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play. The production is scheduled just in time for the holiday season on Nov. 30.

How To Improve Alertness During The Workday
long workday can be both mentally and physically draining. As a result, office workers and professionals whose jobs are more physically demanding than office work may find themselves less alert at the end of the workday than at the beginning. A loss of alertness as the workday draws to a close might be unavoidable. But professionals whose sense of alertness begins to dwindle in the thick of the workday might need to take steps to improve their alertness to protect themselves from injury and to ensure the quality of their work does not suffer. • Avoid caffeine in the late afternoon. Some pro-
fessionals rely on caffeinated beverages such as coffee or energy drinks to combat afternoon drowsiness. While that afternoon caffeine fix might provide an immediate, if temporary, jolt of energy, it might also affect a person’s energy levels the following day. A 2013 study published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine found that caffeine consumed as early as six hours before bedtime can significantly disrupt sleep. Professionals who reach for a cup of coffee in the late afternoon might get a sudden boost of energy, but their energy levels the following day might be lower due to a poor night’s sleep. • Avoid high-fat foods

at lunchtime. Foods that are high in fat should always be avoided thanks to their connection to a host of health problems. Such foods also negatively affect energy levels when consumed in the middle of the day. The University of Rochester Medical Center notes that the body digests and absorbs high-fat foods very slowly. That means workers who eat high-fat foods for lunch won’t get the afternoon energy boost that low-fat, healthy lunches will provide. • Snack healthy. Professionals who find themselves needing a snack in the mid- to late-afternoon can sate their hunger and give themselves an energy boost by snacking healthy.
Avoid snacks like potato chips that tend to be high in fat and low in nutrition. Foods that are high in fiber and/or protein can provide a longer energy boost and quell the afternoon hunger pangs at the same time. Fresh fruit and Greek yogurt fit the bill. • Change your workout schedule. Regular exercise improves short- and long-term health while also increasing daily energy levels. Professionals who include exercise in their daily routines yet still suffer from a lack of alertness in the afternoon may need to alter their workout schedules. A 2011 study published in the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine found
that participants who were assigned afternoon exercise programs during work hours reported increased productivity versus those who were not assigned afternoon workouts. If working out in the afternoon is not feasible, avoid working out too late at night, as the National Institutes of
Health note that exercising within two to three hours of bedtime can disrupt sleep, ultimately having a negative impact on energy levels the following day. Professionals who find their alertness levels waning in the afternoons can combat such drowsiness in various ways.

he Morris Educational Foundation has opened ticket sales for its tenth annual talent show, Morristown ONSTAGE. The talent show will showcase the best amateur talent from Morristown, Morris Plains and Morris Township. The event is set for March 1, at 7 p.m. at the Mayo Performing Arts

Kids And Sleep
chool-aged children are busier than ever before, and some may be sacrificing sleep to accommodate their lifestyles. The National Sleep Foundation says schoolaged children need between nine and 11 hours of sleep each night to function at a healthy level. Sleep deprivation can be linked to a host of health ailments, including issues affecting the development of the brain. Growing evidence suggests that lack of sleep can cause distur-
bances in metabolic rates that could affect the risk for cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity. A recent study from Johns Hopkins University found that, for each additional hour of sleep a child gets, the risk of that child becoming overweight or obese decreases by 9 percent. Children who slept the least, according to the research, had a 92 percent higher risk of being overweight or obese compared to children with longer sleep duration. The NSF adds that poor
or inadequate sleep can lead to mood swings, behavioral problems and cognitive problems that impact kids’ ability to learn in school. To promote good sleep habits in children, parents and other caregivers can establish consistent sleep/ wake routines; ensure children avoid excess caffeine, particularly late in the day; create a cool, dark sleep environment; keep televisions and other media devices out of bedrooms; and help children work through stressors that may impact sleep.
School District Presents Initiative On Health And Wellness
A
Health & Wellness Community Forum is set for Wed., Feb. 15, at 7 p.m., at Hartshorn School in Short Hills.

This year’s Master of Ceremonies and host of the show will be Morristown-resident Tara Bernie, Emmy-nominated senior producer for NBC’s Access Hollywood and Access Hollywood LIVE. Atlantic Health System’s Morristown Medical Center is the event’s headline sponsor. “The Morris Educational Foundation is very excited about our 10th anniversary production and this year’s Morristown ONSTAGE,” said Molly Servais, MEF Board member and chair of the Mor-
ristown ONSTAGE Committee. “We are proud to give our community’s local amateur talent an opportunity to perform in front of their hometown, and in a top notch facility such as the Mayo Performing Arts Center. We are anticipating selling out the theater once again this year!” For a sneak peak and promotional video, visit http://bit.ly/MOS10Years.

o matter the style of a homeowner’s kitchen, be it modern, traditional or farmhouse, stainless steel appliances can add a pop of shine and a touch of class. Proponents of stainless steel appliances note their easy maintenance, stylish look and durability. Plus, the neutral tone of stainless steel helps it blend in with just about any color palette. Stainless steel is lauded for its strength and resistance to corrosion and rust. These attributes make it a popular choice in kitchens, where moisture is an issue. Although they are certainly durable choices, stainless steel appliances re-
Y
ou are thinking of making a major renovation to your home. Perhaps it’s time to create that master bedroom suite you long have admired or install that wraparound porch? What is the first thing that should be done before getting down to business? The correct way to begin a home remodeling project is to obtain the necessary permits for the job. Many municipalities request individuals obtain permits for a range of work on homes or other structures, such as office buildings. Permits are generally required for all new construction as well as specific modifications that will affect structural, plumbing, mechanical, and
How To Clean And Maintain Stainless Steel quire maintenance to keep them looking and performing at their best. Considering that stainless steel also costs more than other finish options, taking the time to learn proper care can help protect homeowners’ investments. Avoid chlorine bleach or other products containing chloride. Although stainless steel is highly resistant to corrosion, it is not completely impervious. Chlorine products can damage the surface of stainless steel appliances and stain them if the chlorine is left to sit. Do not use metal scourers or coarse abrasives on the stainless steel because such products may scratch
the steel. Steel wool pads can leave behind a residue of small metal particles that may eventually rust. Baking soda mixed with a little dish soap can be used to remove some tough dirt and stains. Rinse well and towel dry to avoid streaking. Clean and wipe the steel in the direction of the “grain.” Usually this means working from the top of the appliance and moving down toward the floor. Consult with the owner’s manual before undertaking any maintenance or cleaning. The appliance may have a special coating over the stainless steel to help protect it, and it’s
best to know what you’re dealing with before getting your hands dirty. If you will be trying a cleaning product or scouring method, always test it first in an inconspicuous spot to see if it is effective or harmful. Julien, a leader in commercial kitchen equipment, recommends applying cleansers with a soft cloth or sponge. Then wipe dry with a soft, clean cloth or allow to air dry. Stainless steel remains a popular material in kitchens for sinks and appliances. With care, stainless steel can look like new for years to come.
How Building Permits Protect Homeowners electrical systems. It’s important to check with the local building office prior to beginning work to see which permits you will need before the project can begin. Permits are necessary whether a homeowner is doing the work or hiring an outside contractor. Due to the cost and time involved with securing permits, some homeowners skip this step so they can begin a project promptly. However, this can end up being a costly mistake. Permits might seem like a nuisance, but they actually protect homeowners in various ways. Permits ensure safe workmanship Permits provide a blueprint by which contractors
and do-it-yourselfers must complete renovations. Because inspections will take place, there is no wiggle room. Shortcuts often translate into subpar work that may lead to malfunction and injury in the long run. Safeguarding against poor workmanship means homeowners can feel confident in the work being done. Permits reduce the likelihood of costly mistakes As inspectors go through their checklists, they may notice things that were done incorrectly and will offer advice about how to mend the problem before it becomes a larger headache. If left unchecked, an electrical error could lead to a fire or another dan-
gerous situation. Repairs that are not structurally sound may pose problems or deteriorate more quickly than structures that are constructed correctly. Furthermore, catching improper technique early on eliminates having to tear down and redo work, which can be a costly and time-consuming endeavor. Permits protect against fines Sometimes work goes as planned even for homeowners who did not obtain the necessary permits. However, years later, when other work needs to be done, inspectors may discover homeowners never secured proper permits and inspections years earlier, leading to fines.
Obtain the proper permits before beginning construction.
Furthermore, if work is done without a permit and an accident occurs, any damages or injuries may not be covered by a homeowner’s insurance policy. Permits are an important
part of the home improvement process. Homeowners should not skirt the responsibility because the permit and inspection process is in place to provide protection to occupants.

ed living facilities spreading holiday cheer throughout West Essex. According to outgoing President Ray Liptak the Dans and their chapter quartets, Gimme Four and The B Team visited more than a dozen facilities. The chapter performs a 45-60 minute show full of music and laughter featuring lots of audience participation. These performances are given free of charge as part of the society’s mission of community service. The chapter is currently preparing for another annual event. They sell singing valentines the week of Feb. 14. A quartet can be hired to sing two love songs to a sweetheart for a nominal fee. Everyone sings. Some sing better than others, so

IMPLANT DENTISTRY For over twenty years, implant dentistry has been a reliable option for patients with missing teeth. With the ability to support a crown, an implant procedure has the capacity to bypass drilling the adjacent teeth. Additionally, with the recent availability of mini implants, implant dentistry has expanded its utilization to anchoring both full and partial dentures for a more secure fit. As they provide an economic alternative, patients have been very receptive of mini implants, as they make eating and speaking with dentures much easier. Dr. Helen Chiu has always been involved in implant dentistry, making it an integrated part of her everyday practice. From replacing a single tooth, inserting crowns or bridges, securing dentures, to creating multiple, full-arch reconstructions, she performs every step of each process, surgical and restorative.
