Students Swap Books

n December the Millburn Middle School library hosted a Holiday Book Swap for students. Students brought in books they had already read and exchanged them for something new. It was organized by Amy Ipp, school librarian, with great assistance from the Library Squad, a dedicated group of seventh and eighth graders. In June the library will host a similar event for teachers in time for the summer break.

Donation Opens New Thrift Store To Regenerate Women’s Shelter

By Cheryl Conway he new year is looking bright for a battered women’s shelter organization thanks to a significant donation from a Livingston business person who responded to an SOS call. This donor, and his wife, who wish to remain

anonymous recently allocated $35,000 to Strengthen Our Sisters (SOS), a grassroots, community based non-profit, program serving homeless/battered women and children for more than four decades. The funds went toward the shelter’s utility fees and to open a thrift store in Pas-

saic. With restricted monies coming in, the organization has been in jeopardy of closing its doors to hundreds of women and children. While constant funding is needed to keep the non-profit running, the most recent donation has allowed SOS to sustain its operations for now and to cover the first three months’ rent of a new thrift store, Treasures Two, expected to open March 1 on Chestnut Street and Main Street, near Popeyes, in Passaic. “We’re struggling,” says Sandra Ramos of Ringwood, founder and executive director of SOS. “We are not in to money;

we don’t get paid. I haven’t been paid in four years. We don’t give the money to ourselves. We give money to serve the people. We do it out of love. We want to make the world a better place.” Established in 1977 as Shelter Our Sisters – Ramos began the first shelter for battered women in North America out of her three bedroom home in Hackensack. The organization changed its name to Strengthen Our Sisters and grew as big as eight houses, two day care centers, a food pantry and a thrift store. “Our shelter is the largest,” says Ramos, currently providing 155 beds to

persons needing shelter. “We have 177 beds available. We take people that we don’t get reimbursed from welfare.” The mission of SOS is to break the cycle of domestic violence, poverty and abuse by restoring balance and harmony through individual empowerment. To support her organization, Ramos receives some money from the Passaic County Dept. of Human Services, private donations, counties and social services. Ramos currently has 17 non-paid volunteers who drive shelter residents to look for jobs and attend court, doctor appointments, social services, schools; they fix

things, watch children. “We have people working who have no pay, no insurance,” says Ramos, who had to reduce her non-paid staff and is currently down to seven shelter houses located in Newfoundland, Wanaque and West Milford. A teacher of social issues and dynamics of domestic violence at Ramapo College, Ramos has been reaching out to the community for monetary support to keep her organization afloat. One man from Livingston read about her cry in the local “Livingston News,” and decided to take a closer look. continued on page 4

Continue To Brighten The Future By Sharing Positive Stories In 2017

By Cheryl Conway ith winter holidays behind us and the new year already here, many may have noticed some extra kindness with more and more people giving to charities, hosting dinners, providing meals and reaching out to those struggling or needing some help to get by.

These are the type of stories that New View Media Group welcomes as good news and kindness tend to spread and creates a chain reaction that may encourage others to pitch in by donating some time, money or items that they do not need or use. New View Media Group, it’s that new view on news that tends to steer

away from anything controversial and negative, such as last year’s political debates and election. The recent election, as contentious as it was, remains uneasy for many who question the next leadership; and if the other candidate would have won, that same uneasiness would have still been present. As readers look back at 2016, and then forward to what lies ahead, we must not forget the importance of sticking to core values, good ethics and morals, and proper etiquette which can range from being kind to others; having respect for all people; being honest and giving to those who may be struggling. Throughout the past year, the local community

has been an outreach in so many ways to help others both near and far. Readers of the “Millburn/Short Hills News” were inundated with so many positive stories. Millburn students honor veterans with goods and supplies drive; area resident advocates for cancer prevention; A ‘book lady’ in Essex County delivers free books to nail salons and beauty shops to encourage reading among children; Millburn student gets recognized nationally for cartoon creations; Millburn township officials outline safer streets project; physical education teacher named teacher of year award by state; local author publishes children’s book on pet therapy dog. The list of amazing sto-

ries that detail all of the wonderful actions prompted by the local community go on and on. For 2017, let’s continue to share in all of the good that surrounds us, big or small, near or far.

Send your press releases and story ideas to me at editor@newviewmg.com. Hope happy holidays were had by all and may 2017 be bright, healthy and filled with all great things.

Did You Know?

ust like certain exercises, home improvement projects may involve heavy lifting, bending, moving, and stretching. After spending much of the winter indoors and largely sedentary, some homeowners may be tempted to jump into projects with gusto when the warm weather returns. But that can be a recipe for injury that can sideline DIYers for a while. Instead, homeowners can start slowly and then gradually work longer hours,

just as they might do when returning to exercise after some time off. Homeowners can see how their muscles feel after an hour or two while not concentrating on one task for too long. Homeowners who vary the tasks they tackle will use different muscle groups, which can reduce strain and limit injury risk. Whenever possible, opt for ergonomic tools that can reduce users’ risk of repetitive stress injuries.

New Thrift Store... continued from front page “I’ve been thinking about a worthwhile organization to support,” he says. Rather than giving his money away to “get thrown in a big pot and you don’t know where it goes,” he chose SOS. “They are out of sight, out of mind.” Despite its financial woes, “they continue to supply services with their extreme limited amount of money.” He “thought it was a floundering, worthwhile organization. I called to get name of attorney to find out if they are a legitimate organization; then traveled to visit her” to see the shelters, day care centers, thrift store and food pantry. He met “a bunch of people,” young and old, and talked to them “hearing how they struggled and got strengthened getting back into society and back into their lives. “What a youthful, helpful organization it is; thought it was worthwhile to support,” he says. “It just kind of reinforced there’s a need for this; reinforced there are many people in need of support in places to live, for food.

They’ve gone through tremendous financial strains.” The donor also supports the organization’s purpose: to help women “to reestablish a life after gone through a poor circumstance, such as battered women, mentally, physically.” While he says “I’m not a zillionaire,” he says he did have some success in his profession which has now allowed him and his wife to give back. “I’ve spoken to Sandra a half a dozen times,” he says, to learn “what their needs are. They say they get a lot of donations. They need the store but they need an ongoing business to regenerate the business to self-sustain, to pay the people working there. They have to generate a good chunk of revenue plus some revenue to pay some people to run the store.” Of the funds he allocated, $10,000 went to pay shut off utility fees for gas and electric at the shelter’s seven houses; and $20,000 as a reverse matching fund to cover the first three months’ rent at the new

thrift store, explains Ramos. “We are supposed to match it,” says Ramos. “We have constant needs. We need refrigerators,” gasoline, insurance. Treasures Two is set to open March 1. The brand new store features a showroom with a store downstairs, an elevator and wood floor, describes Ramos. Customers will be able to shop for new and used furniture, high end designer clothing for mostly women, children and some selections for men. “We get a lot of stuff,” says Ramos, as far as donations. “We get some really good stuff; got a feathered couch,” antiques. The store will be open six days a week from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. The organization’s other thrift store, Treasures, opened 30 years ago and is located in West Milford. As she looks forward, Ramos hopes to add in a Jazz Café at the new store and eventually a Treasures Three featuring “gardening stuff.” Ramos is currently in need of furniture, cars,

quality clothing and monetary contributions. For more details, go to

http://www.strengthenoursisters.org/. To make a donation or

to help, email scb@optonline.net or call Ramos at 973-831-6156.

WHAT’S NEW IN DENTISTRY Recently, the Food and Drug Administration approved a new dental material called silver diamine fluoride, which has been used for decades in Japan. This new material can arrest large tooth decay after removing the decay with a hand instrument. While it is not a permanent solution to treating cavities, it has a wide variety of applications. For instance, it is good for treating cavities in small children. If a three-year-old child has many large cavities in his or her baby teeth but is fearful of the dentist, this new material is a viable option for treatment. The dentist can simply remove the decay with a hand instrument, dry the affected tooth and apply this material. After this, the dentist can go back and restore the teeth one by one at a later date, when the child is more readily able to handle the procedure. The application diamine fluoride can also help those with delayed dental insurance coverage. Sometimes, a patient has a tooth awaiting treatment. His or her dental insurance will not cover the procedures until months later when it becomes effective. This patient can have the material applied as a temporary solution until insurance can cover the procedures to properly treat the tooth. Due to the simplicity of the applica-

tion of silver diamine fluoride and the economical nature of this type of treatment, the patient can meet a budget. Other applications include geriatric care. Many senior patients have a limited budget, yet have many large root cavities due to various medical conditions. Silver diamine fluoride can economically arrest multiple cavities after one procedure. It provides a valuable and cost-effective alternative. As always, my office stays at the forefront of dental technology and material science.

NCJW Hosts Panel On Reproductive Health Education

CJW/Essex plans to sponsor a Lunch and Learn, The Information Void: A Discussion of Reproductive Health Education, on Thur., Jan. 26, in commemoration of the anniversary of the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision ensuring a woman’s right to a safe and legal abortion. The program, from noon to 2 p.m., will be held at Congregation B’nai Jeshurun in Short Hills. For many women, the first and only sex education they received came from the ground-breaking book, “Our Bodies, Ourselves,” published in 1969. Since then so much has changed – Roe v. Wade, the advancement of women in business and professional fields, sex education requirements in public schools, but the

question remains as to whether women and girls are now more factually informed about their bodies, and, in particular, their reproductive health. This special Lunch and Learn will address the “information void” focusing on three key issues – sex education, informed consent and crisis pregnancy centers – with a panel of experts from different areas of reproductive health. Serving on the panel will be Nicole Cushman, executive director of Answer at Rutgers University, who will discuss sex education and what reproductive health information is and is not currently being disseminated in New Jersey; Cynthia Daniels, professor of Political Science at Rutgers University and lead

author of “The Informed Consent Project,” who will share her findings on the restrictive nature and medical accuracy of state-mandated informed consent statutes required of women seeking abortions; and Jen Boulanger, director of Communications at the Women’s Centers, who will address the proliferation of “crisis pregnancy centers” – religious-based entities whose sole purpose is to prevent women from choosing abortion. The Information Void is being co-sponsored by many community organizations supporting reproductive justice. The program is $20 and includes a buffet lunch. Pre-registration is required. Call (973) 7400588 or visit www.ncjwessex.org to register.

Thomas Edison’s Revolutionary Audio Toy Started Home Phonograph And Recorded Music Industry

By Michele Guttenberger he home music entertainment industry got its start from a handheld revolutionary toy targeted for girls - the talking doll. Thomas Edison in 1877 patented his first phonograph recorder. He envisioned his invention as time saving business equipment for letter dictation. However, a novel idea emerged of using this same technology in a miniature version to be housed inside a doll. Unknowingly, the talking doll would become the first home phonograph player when it was released to the public in 1890. Each doll housed an internal phonograph seven inches tall,

with a wax cylinder measuring three inches in diameter containing a six second prerecorded nursery rhyme. Edison was enthusiastic in finding a new use for his invention and thought his talking doll would bring him huge success. In the April 26, 1890 issue of “Scientific America,” he boasted that he would be manufacturing 500 dolls per day and had a doll factory staffed with 100 employees in his New Jersey factory. The men assembled the talking devices and the factory women were assigned to dressing the dolls. The doll had a dainty imported Simon and Halbig bisque face, but the rest of doll’s body looked like a

sci-fi transformer figure because of its metal torso and wooden segmented limbs. It was no wonder that Edison would later refer to this doll as a “little monster.” After several plays, the doll’s recording was scratchy and even sounded spooky. The doll’s voice crank located in the back of the doll did not have a spring mechanism. A child was expected to steadily turn the crank at an even speed for the doll to audibly recite its rhyme. The price tag may have been more horrific than its horrid voice. The basic price for a simply clothed doll was $10. However, to buy the doll complete with its 1890’s high fashion outfit the price jumped to $25.

This was the equivalent of two weeks’ salary for the average person. Edison success in the doll making business would be short lived. The customer returns on these dolls were massive. One toy retailer returned 188 dolls out of their 200-doll order. The dolls could not hold up to a child’s hard use. To recover some of these losses, they removed the voice device and drastically marked down the price to that of an ordinary doll. The 1890’s factory doll business would be noted in history as one of Edison’s marketing failures. However, it proved to Edison that the average household was willing to spend extra mon-

ey for recorded home entertainment. And that brought the launch of a new nationwide industry of recording artists, record sales and phonograph players all initially headquartered at Edison’s West Orange location. Today one can still visit the doll, an early American factory, and the evolution of

phonograph players at the place of the original music recording studio. Visit Thomas Edison National Historical Park in West Orange. It is open Wed.-Sun., 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. For more details, go to www.nps.gov/edis or call 973-736-0550 x11.

Deer Management Program To Continue In South Mountain And Hilltop Reservations

ssex County Executive Joseph N. DiVincenzo, Jr. outlined plans for the 2017 Essex County Deer Management Program in Essex County South Mountain Reservation and Essex County Hilltop Reservation. This is the 10th year of the program, which is geared toward revitalizing the forest ecology by reducing the number of deer. “Controlling the population by removing deer from South Mountain and Hilltop has proven to be very successful in helping to preserve the forest habitat and maintain our reservations as viable resources for recreation and open space,” DiVincenzo said. “Each year, we have updated our program to address current conditions, reducing the number of days and transitioning into a ‘maintenance mode’ to maintain the population at a manageable level. This is just one facet of our comprehensive Deer Management Program that

also includes creating seed banks to accelerate the regrowth of the forests and installing reflectors and lights to enhance traffic safety by keeping deer from entering the roadway.” The program is set to be held on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons through Feb. 16. When the program is held, the reservations will be closed to the public to maximize safety. For the first time, make-up days have been scheduled in case the program is cancelled because of inclement weather. South Mountain Reservation is located in Maplewood, Millburn and West Orange, and Hilltop Reservation is in Cedar Grove, North Caldwell and Verona. The program will not be held in Eagle Rock Reservation. Since 2008, a total of 2,013 deer were removed utilizing the volunteer services of experienced and qualified marksmen who volunteer their time. They are licensed by the State

of New Jersey and have demonstrated their marksmanship ability and completed an orientation program with the Essex County Department of Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs and the Essex County Sheriff’s Office. To maximize safety, South Mountain Reservation, Hilltop Reservation and all parking areas and walking paths inside the two reservations will be closed to the public on the days the program is held in that specific reservation. The Essex County Sheriff’s Office will coordinate safety patrols with local police departments. All deer removed from the reservations are inspected and information about its age, reproductive status, gender and weight, as well as the number of shots fired is collected. They are transported by the county to a NJ Department of Health approved butcher for processing. Venison is donated to the Community FoodBank

Since 2008, a total of 36,452 pounds of venison have been donated to the FoodBank, which equates to about 145,000 meals. In addition to culling the deer herd, an aggressive replanting program to accelerate the regrowth of the forests is being undertaken in South Mountain Reservation and Eagle Rock Reservation. Forty-seven enclosures have been installed where native vegetative species have been planted so their seeds can be

reintroduced into the area. The eight-foot high fences are designed to prevent deer and other large animals from foraging on the planted areas, but allow smaller animals, such as rodents and birds, to enter and exit. The fences will remain in place for about 25 years. Replanting native plant species is necessary to restore the forest understory that was being destroyed by the overbrowsing of deer. The loss of this vegetation has prevented new trees from growing, created erosion problems, allowed invasive plant species to flourish and caused the number of native animal species that rely on the plants for food or protection to decline. The third aspect of the

Essex County Deer Management Program is enhancing safety on county roads by reducing the number of motor vehicle accidents involving deer. Through a pilot program with the NJ Department of Transportation, Essex County received grant money to install detection devices that reflect motor vehicle headlights and emit a high-pitched noise to scare deer away from the road when cars approach. The reflectors are installed along Cherry Lane, Brookside Drive, JFK Parkway and Parsonage Hill Road in Millburn, Livingston and West Orange. In 2015, 272 deer carcasses were removed from County roads.

How To Create An Effective Workflow In The Kitchen

athroom and kitchen makeovers are some of the most coveted and profitable improvements that can be made to a home. Installing new cabinetry, countertops and appliances can transform the look of a kitchen, but homeowners also must consider the functionality of design when renovating. The National Kitchen and Bath Association suggests applying the kitchen “work triangle,” which is a concept used to create efficient kitchen layouts. The triangle comprises imaginary straight lines drawn from the cooking appliance, sink and refrigerator. These are where much of the work in the kitchen takes place. The general idea is that

when the work triangle is positioned accordingly — with the three components in close proximity to one another — the kitchen is easier and more efficient to use. Homeowners will be able to move freely among these elements when they are placed at appropriate distances, reducing wasted steps. The NKBA suggests following these guidelines to create efficient kitchens. • No major traffic patterns should cross through the triangle. • The sum of the work triangle’s three sides should not exceed 26 feet. Each portion of the triangle should be between four and nine feet.

• Avoid cutting through an island or a peninsula. • If the kitchen has only one sink, it should be placed between or across from the cooking surface, preparation area or refrigerator. The work triangle is a suggestion, not a law of design. As kitchens evolve and more people use them simultaneously, designers may take certain liberties — even having multiple triangles at play. Homeowners should also design their kitchens so they function best for their own individual lifestyles. Kitchen layout can be just as important as the decor and appliances within the kitchen.

How To Avoid The Cold Comfort Of A Drafty House

or those who live in older homes, the transition to colder weather can be extra disheartening, as the vision of expensive heating bills, chilly rooms and drafty windows dance in their heads. However, it’s easy to change the outlook from cold to cozy with a few simple DIY solutions. The most effective way to improve the comfort level in your home is to properly insulate. Insulation can be inadequate in older homes. Over time, it can settle and compact, creating gaps. Topping up attic insulation will help keep the warm air in, reducing heating bills and preventing stress on your furnace. For easy installation, home-

owners and professionals alike recommend a stone wool batt insulation product called Roxul Comfortbatt. For attics, aim for an r-value of R-50 or a depth of 16 inches. A little preparation can go a long way to keep the cold at bay. Seal out drafts by replacing worn weath-

erstripping and caulking along windows, doors, baseboards, and trim. For other ways to beat the cold, consider inexpensive window insulation kits along with thicker drapes, and don’t forget to reverse ceiling fans to push warm air back down.

The Benefits Of Hiring Professional Contractors

he DIY movement has inspired many homeowners to tackle home repair and remodeling projects on their own. DIY projects can be rewarding, and many homeowners who have embraced the DIY movement have discovered talents they never before knew they had. But no matter how simple popular home renovation television shows make remodeling projects appear, homeowners should know that such undertakings are far more difficult than they appear on television. Homeowners who overestimate their abilities and the time they have to complete projects can cost themselves substantial amounts of money. In fact, there are

a variety of reasons homeowners might want to work with professional contractors when tackling home improvement projects. Experience A trial and error approach can work with various projects and problems. But applying such an approach to home improvement projects is risky and potentially dangerous, not to mention costly. Experienced professional contractors with strong track records (seek recommendations from friends or neighbors) won’t have to go through trial and error and are therefore more likely than DIYers to complete a project on time and on budget. Inspiration One oft-overlooked

benefit of working with professional contractors is the likelihood that they can draw up ideas for projects that homeowners might otherwise never have thought up on their own. Homeowners without specific ideas in mind can ask contractors to come up with various scenarios before committing to a particular one. Veteran contractors can draw on years of experience to create designs that DIYers might be incapable of coming up with and/or incapable of seeing through to completion. Cost Conventional wisdom suggests it’s less expensive to do something yourself than to hire someone else to do it for you, but that’s not necessarily true of home

improvement projects. Labor costs typically account for a substantial amount of professionally contracted projects, but homeowners can cut those costs by volunteering to do some of the simpler tasks themselves. In addition, contractors often purchase materials at a much lower cost than individual homeowners because contractors buy in bulk. So while labor costs might be lower on DIY projects, the cost of materials can offset those savings. Resale value Many homeowners renovate their homes with eyes on improving the resale value of those homes. But if homeowners want to showcase a newly remodeled kitchen when selling their homes, they should

be prepared for prospective buyers to ask who worked on the project. Fearing potential problems down the road, some buyers might be put off by homes that were remodeled by DIYers and not professional contractors. Renovating a home on

your own can be a rewarding project for homeowners. But it’s important that homeowners recognize the many benefits of working with professional contractors before making any final decisions with regard to who will tackle their next project.

United Way And Author Team Up To Donate Books To Preschoolers

hildren’s book author Nila J. Webster believes that everyone has a gift within him or her that can be shared with others. Webster’s gift was to donate 2,300 copies of her picture book, “The Gift of You, The Gift of Me” to United Way of Northern New Jersey to share with preschoolers across the region, this holiday season. The book of hope and courage tells the tale of a cat and his friendship with the trees at the end of his lane. The book was written in English but also includes translations in Arabic, Chinese, French and Spanish. United Way is distributing the books to preschools across five counties in NJ. The preschools receiving the books are all involved with the United Way Success By 6 initiative, which

works to improve access to high-quality early education for all families in the region. Webster, who lives in Massachusetts, has donated thousands of her books to schools and United Ways in various states. Battling lung cancer for six years, she wants children to enjoy reading, and hopes her gift “inspires others to think about community giving.” Throughout the time Webster has fought the resurgence of her cancer, she said she donated more than 200,000 of her books to children in Hong Kong, France, Argentina and Spain as well as to United Ways in New Mexico and Missouri. She also continues to write new books for elementary and middle school students. Webster reached out to United Way Success By 6 in northern NJ in early No-

vember with her donation offer. United Way jumped at the offer because the initiative supports early literacy efforts in order to promote kindergarten readiness. “Young children learn to enjoy reading when they read with their parents,” said United Way Success By 6 Manager JoAnn Quattro. “For so many children to be able to bring this uplifting story home with them is a very special gift. We are grateful to Ms. Webster for promoting early literacy with a positive message.” United Way of Northern New Jersey is a nonprofit organization working to improve people’s lives and strengthen communities by focusing on education, income and health.
