want, I will be accepting that as well. The girls I hope to beable to help would be middle school age (holiday and 8th
grade graduation dances) through high school (proms andholiday dances). If you'd like to donate your dress(es) to theCloset, contact me at [email protected] or
9739700275. You can drop off donations at my house, 33Sandpiper Drive, but please get in touch with me first.I am also looking for dress racks like the portable kind
you might have in a basement or attic for off-season clothes and hangers would also be a generous donation to makeCinderella's Closet as successful as possible. I willannounce the dates the Closet will be open in another issueof the Panther and in local papers, but I anticipate it will beopen on a date in the first week in December and again inearly Spring 2015. Please reach out to me at those contactsif you would like to make an appointment with me to go tothe Closet to find a dress. Appointments must be made with

Hackettstown Mayor Maria
DiGiovanni said Hackettstown isbecoming quite a destinationplace for patrons who love great food.
There are many excellent restaurants intown, and this is why many individualsmake the trip from neighboring towns, andbeyond, to experience them.
This is part of the success thatHackettstown has been enjoying, and itseems to have some good momentum.
An event is being held early next monthto showcase these fine establishments.
The event will highlight what many fansof local fine cuisine already know thatHackettstown offers some stellar restaurantsthat cannot be topped.
The Sept. 8 Autumn LampLight Dinneris being held from 5 9 pm, and is beingcalled a very special dining event. Lastweek, Mayor DiGiovanni spoke about theupcoming event in a phone interview.
It is to be held on a Monday evening, andHackettstown officials are circulating flyersthat invite the public to discover
Hackettstowns finest cuisines under a star-lit sky."
It is a unique event that will entice localresidents who are pondering the idea of
checking out some great, local food.The flyers mention that, The finerestaurants of Hackettstown and theHackettstown BID are presenting the firstannual Autumn Lamplight Dinner.
Twinkle lights will be in abundance,and the setting will be the Gazebo/MooreStreet area. Fine cuisine will be featuredfrom participating restaurants.
Tickets can be purchased at any of theparticipating restaurants and are $50 perperson, or $90 per couple.
"Save the date," the flyer reads. "It willprove to be the Hackettstown dining eventof the year."
DiGiovanni said she recently did a rib-bon cutting for TOPO Vietnamese Cuisine,and added that people are really payingattention to what Hackettstown has to offerin the way of its fine food. The town is real-ly being thought of nowadays as a destina-tion.
Economically the town is now also a ris-ing force after more difficult times, such asin 2007 and 2008, she said.
This is welcomed because it is probably

safe to say everyone is hoping they neverhave to go back to such difficult times as
those.If it can be avoided, that would certainlybe a great thing. And if the economic cli-mate of the local community can be anuplifting thing, that is great too.
Now that things seem to be looking up inHackettstown, DiGiovanni said the excel-lent restaurants and unique shoppes are all
part of the special character of the town, andthis is appealing to residents and visitors.
They are, in fact, often interested in com-ing back to visit again to see whatHackettstown is all about. This is expected,since the town has such appeal and stylethat people can be attracted to.

The dawn of a new school year is anexciting time. Kids may not want tosay goodbye to days spent loungingby the pool, but such disappointment isoften tempered by the prospect of returningto school with friends.
For parents, getting kids ready for a newschool year is about more than updatingtheir wardrobe or organizing carpools withfellow parents. Reacclimating kids to theroutine of school after a relaxing summer isa significant undertaking, and the followingare a handful of ways for parents to get ahead start as the school year draws closer.
Establish a routine over the last fewweeks of summer. Summer vacations typi-cally lack the structure of the school year,and that lack of structure can help kidsunwind and make the most of the freedomthat summer vacation provides. But as sum-mer starts to wind down, parents can beginto reintroduce some structure into their kids'lives to make the transition back to schoolgo more smoothly. Plan morning activitiesso kids can readjust to waking up early eachday. In addition, serve breakfast, lunch anddinner at the same time you typically serveit during the school year so kids' bodies canbegin to readjust as well.
Take kids along when shopping for
school supplies. If you plan to buy yourchild a new computer or other supplies forthe upcoming school year, take him or heralong on your shopping trips. Kids who getto choose their supplies might be moreexcited about returning to school than thoseyoungsters who are given what they needwithout offering their input.
Monitor or assign summer reading.Many students are given summer readinglists to keep their minds sharp over the sum-mer and prepare them for upcoming course-work. Parents should monitor kids' progresson such reading lists and even discuss thebooks with their kids when possible. Readthe books along with them if you think itwill help engage them. If kids were notassigned summer reading lists at the end of the school year, assign your own books,rewarding kids when they finish a newbook. Kids who read throughout the sum-mer may be more likely to start the schoolyear off on the right foot than those whodon't crack a book all summer.
Encourage kids to sign up for extracur-ricular activities. Many school-aged athletesget a head start on the new school year bytrying out for sports teams. Such tryoutsoften commence a week or two before aschool year is scheduled to begin, and this

As a new school year draws nearer, parents can employ several strategies to help their kids read- just to the rigors of the classroom.
can help kids ease their way back into theschool year. But even nonathletes can beginpursuing extracurricular activities beforethe first school bell of the year rings.Theater programs may begin auditions orencourage interested youngsters to attendorientation meetings before the dawn of the
school year, and such sessions can be agreat and pressure-free way for kids toready themselves for a new school year.
The arrival of a new school year can beboth exciting and daunting. But parents canhelp their youngsters readjust to school invarious ways after a relaxing summer.

Stuttering is a frustrating and embar-rassing problem for millions of peo-ple, but it can be especially tough on
elementary school-age children. Help isavailable for parents, teachers, and speech-language pathologists at most publiclibraries in the form of a DVD designed tohelp school-age children who stutter. Somelibraries have an older video version. It'smeant to give speech-language pathologiststhe tools they need to deal with stuttering inthis age group, but it also offers good ideasfor parents and teachers," said ProfessorPeter Ramig of the University of Coloradoat Boulder. Ramig is one of five nationallyrecognized experts appearing in the DVDproduced by the nonprofit StutteringFoundation. The DVD features studentsfrom first through sixth grade, some of whom talk about their experiences withstuttering. They talk openly about the teas-ing they face from classmates and how theirstuttering sometimes makes them feel aboutthemselves. "We focus on demonstrating avariety of therapy strategies that are appro-priate in working with children who stut-ter," adds Ramig. He appears in the DVD
along with speech-language pathologistsBarry Guitar, Ph.D., of the University of Vermont, Hugo H. Gregory, Ph.D., and JuneCampbell, M.A., of NorthwesternUniversity, and Patricia Zebrowski, P.D., of the University of Iowa. These five expertsanswer questions about stuttering, refutemyths and misconceptions, and presentexamples of therapy sessions showing howstuttering can be reduced. More than threemillion Americans stutter, yet stutteringremains misunderstood by most people,"said Jane Fraser, president of the StutteringFoundation. "Myths such as believing peo-ple who stutter are less intelligent or sufferfrom psychological problems still persistdespite research refuting these erroneousbeliefs." The 38-minute DVD, entitledTherapy in Action: The School-age ChildWho Stutters, produced by the 67-year-oldnonprofit Stuttering Foundation is availablefree of charge to public libraries nation-wide. Other libraries that will shelve it cancontact the Foundation at 1-800-992-9392,e-mail [email protected], or visitwww.stutteringhelp.org or www.tartar-mudez.org.

The foods a person eats can increase his or her risk of developing various types of cancer. Sodium nitriteand sodium nitrate are widely used as preservatives,antimicrobial agents, colorings, and flavorings in curedmeats and many other products. Nitrates and nitrites arecommonly found in hot dogs and lunch meats. Once theyare consumed, nitrates turn into nitrites in the digestive sys-tem, and it is believed that nitrites react with certain bodilychemicals and turn into cancer-causing carcinogens knownas nitrosamines. Green, leafy vegetables and root vegeta-
bles contain naturally occurring nitrites as well. However, itis believed that nitrites in vegetables do not have the sameeffect on the body as artifically added ones, so the benefitsof eating vegetables outweigh these risks. But avoidingnitrites does not mean people have to give up their favoritefoods. Many types of bacon, hot dogs, bologna, and otherfoods now come in nitrite-free varieties, which is possiblebyusing salt, vinegar and sugar rather than sodium nitrite tocure the meat.

Jobs in health care are growing fast. In fact, the healthcare and social services industry is projected to addmore than 5,000 jobs in Morris County between 2010and 2020, according to the New Jersey Department of Labor. With this growth, many local health care facilitiesare looking to fill positions, but they need qualified appli-cants. In order to fill these vacancies, people need to betrained and certified. But what happens if someone isunable to afford tuition for training courses or make futureloan payments?
Since 2011, County College of Morris (CCM) hashelped individuals start a career in health care by providingno-cost training through the Health Professions PathwaysGrant. This grant was developed specifically to help recipi-
ents of Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF),General Assistance or other low-income individuals whoqualify, by reducing financial and other barriers to educa-tion and training in a wide-range of health care occupations.
The Pathways Program is literally changing lives. Todate, more than 300 students have participated in the grantprogram at CCM. Students have told us that they wentfrom a job they hated to a career they love. Many have saidthey would not have been able to obtain this training with-out the program because they never would have been ableto afford tuition.
CCM recognizes that the cost of tuition is not the onlyfinancial barrier for many individuals in their pursuit of
education and job training. In addition, funding for relatedexpenses, such as transportation, tutoring, books, uniforms,study guides, exam and license fees and even child caremay be provided through subsidies.
We understand the challenges of making a change andwork to help applicants and students through the process.The college has specially trained staff to assist individualsalong the way, from determining whether they are eligibleto selecting courses and finding jobs. We have regular pre-application information sessions at CCMs main campusthat are free to attend. Classes and on-site training are heldat CCM, Morris County School of Technology, MorristownMedical Center and at Saint Clares Hospital.
CCM offers training for a wide range of health care jobsfrom Certified Nursing Assistants and Home Health Aides
to Certified Medical Coding, Billing Specialists and DentalRadiographic Technicians. Programs vary in length fromthree weeks up to a year, depending on the field of study.
To inform people about the program, CCM is workingwith nonprofits, health care facilities and other localresources. Our employer partnerships are key to helping ourstudents find employment opportunities. Local hospitals,long-term care facilities, and local medical practice groupsknow CCM and the top level training we provide, so theyhave come to expect that the students certified through thePathways Grant program will be successful members of their staff.
We know that people in Morris County impacted by the
economic downturn or other circumstances need help find-ing good jobs, so the Pathways Grant Program, offeredthrough the Northern NJ Health Professions Consortium(NNJHPC), is an important piece of addressing these needs.
Consortiums like the NNJHPC are a model for how com-munity colleges can work together to better identify eco-nomic growth areas, form partnerships with local employ-ers, assist applicants with the training necessary to becomeemployable within the health care industry. Our participa-tion in the consortium has allowed us to be an integral localresource by expanding our reach across northern NewJersey to partner with county, state, federal and varioushuman services organizations. We are an intermediarybetween available jobs and our students who want to pursueor improve their careers.
In its Ready to Work report, the ObamaAdministration noted they will work with leaders in [highgrowth] industries to promote partnerships between educa-tion and workforce institutions in order to create trainingprograms that help Americans succeed in these growingfields.
CCM is doing just that right here in Morris County andthe Pathways Grant is allowing us to help others pursuetheir dreams. There are still many grants available. To learnmore about the program and eligibility requirements con-tact CCM at 973-328-2490 or visit www.ccm.edu/health-grant.

The Blood Center of New Jersey(BCNJ) is appealing to all eligibleblood donors and the community atlarge for help with the current blood supply.Current inventories are at dangerously lowlevels and less than half a day supply is avail-able for NJ hospitals and patients. Summercollections are usually slower than normal butthis year the State Health Department isreporting a 12% reduction in collections fromlast year state wide. This has created a deple-tion of readily available blood products forhospitals and trauma centers. Our first majorobjective is to make sure the blood is readywhen patients are in need and given our cur-rent inventory levels, we are urging the pub-lic to respond stated Tina Ilao, President andCEO for the blood center. Demand continuesto outpace collections and BCNJ is asking thepublic for their help in replenishing the cur-rent blood supply. Anyone 17 years or older,in general good health and who has not donat-ed in the past 56 days are asked to considerblood donation at this time. The BloodCenter of New Jersey requests that you visittheir web site at www.bloodnj.org to find adonation site nearest you. In addition, dona-tion centers are located in Parsippany andWest Orange to help with your donation.
Blood center officials note that each unit
of blood donated is broken down into severalcomponents including platelets, plasma, andred cells, so one donation can save up to threelives.
The donation process is safe and simple.Donors are first asked medical history ques-tions and given a mini-health check, includ-ing pulse, blood pressure, and iron level. Theactual donation of blood takes just 5 to 7 min-utes, and then the donor is given a snack and
juice. The entire process generally takesunder one hour. Donors will receive a freecholesterol screening.
16 year olds can donate with a consentform signed by accompanyingparent/guardian, weight 120 pounds and be ingeneral good health. There is no upper agelimit for donors provided they meet healthrequirements. Donors should bring a signedor picture form of identification and knowtheir S.S. #. Please eat a meal one hourbefore donating and drink plenty of water.

T homas Edison could also be called the foundingfather of modern day insomnia. The electric lightbulb has changed mankinds sleeping habits forever.We are no longer influenced by natures schedule but ourown regulated sleeping schedule. Edison took advantage of his own new manmade daylight schedule to become a wellknown insomniac. But, he was not alone in his insomnia.Recently discovered records show the unimaginable worktimetable he had with his team of 7 lab assistants that fol-lowed his same condensed sleeping schedule.
They jokingly called themselves The Insomnia Squad.They were a group of driven experimenters Edison selectedin 1912. They reached the hallmark of project commitmentwhen they intently worked for five weeks both day andnight to arrive at a solution Edison was obsessed in finding.
His focus was on the Diamond Disc record. There was amillion dollar inventory of phonographs sitting in ware-houses but no records for them. He was in a predicamentbecause there were still bugs to be worked out in the man-ufacturing process of the Diamond Disc record before itcould be brought to market.
Edison was known for his insomnia but never to thisextent where it continued for weeks on end accompaniedwith a team. His wife Mina would check up on him whenhis laboratory work called him away from his home life fortoo long a period. This kept him from falling into extremesleep deprivation and physical neglect. She even placed a
bed in the lab library so he could get some bed rest.
However, Mina was not there to control this notorious 1912insomnia marathon. Mina had unexpectedly rushed toAkron, Ohio, to tend to her dying mother. This allowedEdison to continue his work without any regulated controlsin his sleeping schedule and also driving his team to workaround the clock along with him.
Thomas Edison never slept a long restful night. If hewas intent on a project, his schedule was to work on it untilhe was tired and then he'd lie down to sleep. He claimedthat when he awoke from these short sleeping intervals hewas refreshed and ready for work. Mostly, Edison believedin the 15 minute cat naps that he often did seating at his labdesk chair. Napping in a sitting position at the office deskmade it hard for his employees to tell if their boss was deepin thought or napping. Edison said he personally enjoyedworking 18 hours with short catnaps each day and an aver-
age of four to five hours of sleep per night. According toEdison Most people overeat 100 percent, and oversleep100 percent, because they like it. That extra 100 percentmakes them unhealthy and inefficient."
Most of Edisons team were enthusiastic about theirwork and felt honored working on these revolutionary proj-ects with their famous team leader. There were relaxing funmoments too. His lab had a pipe organ, Edison played itafter completing their work and his assistants would have asing along. Edison had the ability to inspire his assistantsand gain their loyalty and dedication by working hardalongside them and joined them in the camaraderie of
unwinding occasions together too. When a new employee
Thomas Edison Was Famous for His Insomnia and Had a Team of Insomniacs Too
asked him if there were any work rules, Edison replied"There aint no rules around here. Were trying to accom-plish something."
You can visit the laboratory where he averaged 18 hourwork days and see the bed his wife Mina placed in theLaboratory Library.
