more successful.

Pompton Speech Plus in

Pompton Plains is extending

their popular social skills pro-

grams-entitled Socially Speak-

ing Plus — with a six-week

summer program beginning

July 5th. Groups are alsoforming for the fall. These

small groups meet weekly for 50

minutes and consist of children

ages pre-school through adoles-

cence. Parents are provided

with carryover activities relat-

ing to weekly sessions. These

language based groups utilize

innovative, research based

techniques to address sociallanguage difficulties. Fees for

the Socially Speak-

are often covered

by insurance; the

help you determine

your eligibility.

“Effective

social skills, even

T

o Americans, Inde-

pendence Day is a

meaningful holidayand often the centerpiece of

summertime festiv-

ities. Commonly

referred to as the

4th of July, the hol-

iday celebrates the

adoption of the

Declaration of In-

dependence, in

which the colonies

officially declared

their independ-ence from Great

Britain.

Among the more patri-

otic days on the American

calendar, the 4th of July is also

among the most festive. Fire-

works displays occur across the

country, and backyard barbe-

cues commonly begin in the

afternoon and last well intothe night. Party hosts who

want to ensure their 4th of

July parties go off without a

hitch can consider the follow-

ing tips.

•Coordinate the party with

the local fireworks display.

Nearly every community has

some type of fireworks display.

As a result, neighboring townsoften agree to spread the

events out so not

all the displays

occur on the same

night. Communi-

ties might host

their displays on

the 3rd or 4th of

July, and hosts

should determine

which night their

community will beoffering their show.

Because fireworks shows are

such a big part of the holiday,

individuals might want to

host their party the night of

their town’s festivities. This

Many times I have

asked myself this

question; from child-

hood, all the way to the present

and each time I come up withthe same answer – Sell Some-

thing! As a child, if I had noth-

ing to sell, I would pick-up

things along my morning news-

paper delivery route, treasures

that others discarded as

trash.With a little re-tuning, I

was able to pick-up, fix-up andsell hundreds of dollars’ worth of

lawn mowers, televisions, bicy-

cles, wagons, baby carriages, fur-

niture items and more, all from

my front yard every Sunday

when parishioners went to

church on my street corner. I

made ten times more in salesthan I did delivering the morn-

ing paper and as a result earned

a fortune selling treasure that

others just threw out, making

Cold Hard Cash!

Other times I manned my

lemonade and iced tea stand.

Anything, to make a few extradollars for all of the “toys” I de-

sired to buy. Whenever inven-

tory was low, I just went looking

at the garbage people threw out

and to a few garage sales. Today

there’s EBay and the internet to

buy and sell items we want to

market; all in the name of mak-ing a few more dollars – imme-

diate cash!

But, now with the respon-

sibility of a regular job and fam-

ily obligations, the time value of

money makes the effort of

garbage scouring and garage

sales impractical, at least for me

anyway. So how can people like

me raise some immediate cash?

The most popular finan-

cial opportunity shows on TVare now Poker Tournaments,

Pawn Shops and Auctions. The

most popular infomercials on

TV are based on the latest

money making systems of a few

prolific marketeer’s such as:

“Get Money from the US Gov-

ernment”, “Build Wealth

Through Real Estate Using

None of Your Own Money”,

“Make a Fortune in Purchasing

Tax Liens”, “Trading Your Wayto Wealth on the Forex (cur-

rency trading),” “Buy Gold and

Silver to protect your assets and

make a Bundle,” “You Can Give

Up Your Job and Make More

Money Buying and Selling

Stock options” and many more.

Do all of these programs

offer a legitimate way to earn

immediate cash? Are the “ex-

perts” portrayed really experts or

are they something much less?

Are you tempted to purchase

one of these programs to finally

find the Golden Goose? Are the

testimonial spokespeople of

these shows real people or just

motivating actors? Have youever thought, this is it and it will

really work for me this time if I

buy that system?

Folks, if you’ve had these

feelings or have asked yourself

any of these questions, you are

not alone. Millions of people

purchase hopes, dreams and fan-

tasy’s every day and night from

infomercial television. Though

some people have some success

some of the time, the vast over-whelming majority just make

the publishers rich and them-

selves poorer. PT Barnum said,

“There’s a sucker born every

day”. One of my clients in the

used car industry said, “There’s

an ass for every seat!” How true

both of these statements really

are, but, there is also an oppor-

tunity here that is often over-

looked. The motivation to try

something new, whether it be anew idea or a new direction, a

new career or a new opportunity

and another chance to really

make it this time if I put my

mind and my money to work for

me. I call this putting some per-

spiration behind the inspiration

and having a goal! This motiva-

tion is a key ingredient to

wealth creation and without it

success is virtually unattainable.

If your plan to create cash cen-ters around a second job, a part-

time or full-time business

opportunity or selling items you

picked out of the trash, I must

ask you two questions. First, for

what reason do you wish to gen-

erate this cash and second, how

much of this new found cash

flow do you intend to save or in-

vest for your future? Looking a

little down the road, will your

current savings be enough foryou to retire one day and to stay

retired for the rest of your life.

What we once thought was an

important acquisition and a

must have now item, pales in

comparison to a comfortable re-

tirement. It is vital for your fi-

nancial security, longevity and

quality of life that building up

your retirement plan is amongst

your most important goals and

endeavors. Outside of goodhealth, having adequate retire-

ment and emergency funds,

should be everyone’s long-term

financial plan with short-term

sacrifices to bolster long-term

needs. In this economic climate

we find ourselves in, it is imper-

ative that we live below our

means funneling extra dollars

into IRA’s, 401k’s and other tax-

deferred and tax-advantaged in-

vestment vehicles. If we do notput away for ourselves every-

thing that we will need in the

future,who will be there to

make up the short-fall? The

Government, our children,

charities, I would think not. It is

our responsibility to be self-re-

liant, self-sufficient and self-

funded as there are few, if any,

acceptable alternatives if we fall

short.

Most people are ignorantwhen it comes to retirement

plan savings and investment al-

ternatives. Is your portfolio in-

vested too aggressively or too

conservatively to be able to pro-

vide a substitute income the day

after you retire and for the next

35 years of days that will follow?Does your portfolio have the

ability to guarantee* you an in-

come that you can never out-

live, even if the account value

exhausts itself from negative

stock market performance cou-

pled with monthly withdrawals

necessary to maintain your stan-

dard of living? Is a portion of

your portfolio designed to rise

when the stock market is up, yet

insulated from loss when thestock market is falling? If not,

why not? Would you like to

learn more for free? All you

need do is ask me for a consulta-

tion and we can go over these

attributes and many others de-

signed to eliminate the fear of

living too long or dying too

soon or running out of money.

In conclusion, convert

anything that isn’t helping your

financial future into somethingthat will, sell everything that

has any intrinsic value with no

sentimental value to add capital

to your retirement funds.Make

more money from any source,

i.e. second job, business oppor-

tunity or from overtime on your

regular job to add to your retire-

ment funds. People do not real-

ize that their retirement is

probably in jeopardy unless they

start adding to their retirementfunds more tha they have ever

done in the past! The best time

to start a systematic investment

plan is when the market is drop-

ping and it appears we are in or

entering a negative market

cycle now! Let’s discuss this in

person, write me or give me a

call to schedule an absolutely no

cost and no obligation appoint-

ment. Enjoy your summer.

enables guests to enjoy the dis-

play from the backyard or walk

to a nearby open field to enjoy

the display.

For hosts who are tailoringtheir party around the local fire-

works show, be sure the guests

arrive early enough so everyone

can enjoy some barbecue before

the show begins because hosts

won’t want to be hovering over

the grill when the show starts.

•Have something for every-

one. Independence Day festivi-

ties are for people of all ages, so

hosts should have something for

everyone. Adults may appreci-ate a cold beer to accompany

their hamburgers and fireworks,

but be sure to have plenty of

other cold beverages on hand as

well. Stock up on soda, ice

water and other popular non-al-

coholic beverages like lemon-

ade and iced tea. Temperatures

on the 4th of July are usually

pretty warm, so hosts should buy

more than they think they

might need, as guests will belooking to stay cool and hy-

drated throughout the party.

When inviting guests, you

should ask if anyone has any

particular food allergies or di-

etary restrictions. Plenty of de-

licious vegetable dishes can be

cooked right on the grill for veg-

etarian guests, and foods likefish might be more suitable for

guests with preexisting health

conditions who should not eat

red meat.

•Decorate. Just because the

party is liable to take place out-

doors doesn’t mean hosts can’t

decorate. The 4th of July is all

about the red, white and blue,

so be sure to display the Ameri-

can flag and decorate in the col-

ors of the U.S.A. PurchaseIndependence Day cups and

plates, and encourage guests to

wear red, white and blue to the

party. Visit the local party store

and purchase some red, white

and blue balloons.

Even the food can be dec-

orated. Instead of making regu-

lar cookies, make American flag

cookies complete with red,

white and blue coloring, and do

the same with the cupcakes.Bartenders can even use food

coloring to make the drinks red,

white or blue.

•Host a fireworks display. Fire-

works are illegal in many states,

so hosts should consult the au-

thorities as to the local fireworks

laws before hosting their own

party. If fireworks are legal, en-list the help of friends and host

your own small show. Keep the

neighbors in mind when host-

ing a private fireworks show,

and always keep children away

from the fireworks.

If fireworks are illegal in

your state, it’s still possible to

host a fireworks show. Rent a

big screen television for the oc-

casion and take it out to the

backyard. Once the sun setsturn on a televised fireworks

event (the Macy’s-sponsored

New York City fireworks show

is very popular among viewers,

as is the display that takes place

in Boston) and encourage guests

to sit down on the ground and

enjoy the show just as they

would if they were in atten-

dance. The show can be just as

entertaining, and guests will

likely appreciate that they don’thave to sit in endless traffic

once the display has ended.

The 4th of July is one of

the most festive days on Amer-

ica’s calendar. With a few sim-

ple tips, hosts can ensure a

magical night for family and

friends.

applies research-based inter-

vention focusing on social lan-

guage skills.”

A unique aspect of the

Socially Speaking Plus programis the use of video modeling.

“Video modeling is an exciting

and effective intervention

tool,” explains co-director

Danyela Williams. “Our pro-

gram emphasizes breaking skills

into small steps, watching typ-

ically developing peers in re-

lated social situations,

practicing those skills, and cri-

tiquing our Performance. Our

students have shown wonderfulprogress from watching them-

selves interacting and practic-

ing their social skills.”

The directors developed

the Socially Speaking Plus pro-

gram after years of extensive

work with children with devel-

opmental delays. “This social

skills program reflects our roles

as researchers and practition-

ers,” explains O’Brien, who also

teaches courses at William Pa-

terson University and is a doc-

toral candidate at the Graduate

Center at the City Universityof New York.

The directors of Pompton

Speech Plus are licensed and

Pathologists with over 30 years

of experience working with

children diagnosed with social

language delays. The program

is supported by a licensed Oc-

cupational Therapist and Be-

Whether in patients

with arthritis or in

patients who have

had sports injuries, untreated

loose bodies in the knee can be

a major problem. About three

months ago, we first saw Mrs.

C in the office for knee pain.

She is a most pleasant but very

busy 46 year old female who

works in Manhattan, and

rarely has the time to see doc-

tors. She has had treatment

for knee arthritis for several

years. She has been told that

she is too young for a knee re-

placement. Mrs. has had vari-

ous other treatments including

cortisone injections, synvisc

injections and physical therapy

with varying degrees of suc-

cess.

About three days prior

to our first meeting, she had

an episode of excruciating

sharp catching pain deep in

her right knee that lasted

about 20 minutes and went

away. It was so painful that

she wanted to make sure

nothing was torn or fractured.

With a physical exam, she had

some joint line tenderness and

some grinding in her knee but

nothing unusual from a typical

patient with arthritis. Her x-rays showed mild amount of

arthritis, but certainly nothing

bone-on-bone. However, her

history was quite worrisome of

loose bodies and we explained

that x-rays can miss loose bod-

ies in about 40 percent of pa-

tients. We proceeded to order

an MRI, and it showed threeloose bodies measuring 1 cm to

1.5 cm in the suprapatellar

pouch, which is the area above

and behind the knee cap.

We explained to Mrs.

that smaller loose bodies meas-

uring 1 or 2 mm may be re-

sorbed by the body, but at the 1

cm to 1.5 cm size range, the

odds are stacked against her.

She was advised to have the

loose bodies arthroscopicallyremoved. We went ahead and

booked her surgery three weeks

later, because she had major

deadlines for the next two

weeks.

…. Then, at 10am two days

later, I received a phone call

from Mrs. in severe pain. Her

right knee was stuck in one po-

sition for the past three hours

and she was unable to fully ex-

tend it. We explained to Mrs.

that the one or more loose

bodies had likely moved to a

new location, between the car-

tilage surfaces, and had lodged

in there. We saw her back in

the office and, that day, Mrs.

was taken for arthroscopic

knee surgery. At the time of

the operation, we found 5

loose bodies measuring over 1

cm each and subsequently re-

moved them. A large loose

body was found in the weight

bearing joint likely causing her

horrific pain. We also found

an area of cartilage fragmenta-

tion with unstable cartilage

edges, where new loose bodies

may have been sloughing off.

The cartilage edge was

smoothed out with a shaver to

prevent further loose bodies.

Mrs. was lucky in the sense

that we got to her loose bodies

in a relatively quick manner.

About a year ago, I re-

member a 21 year old lacrosse

player who had been avoiding

surgery despite a 1.7 cm loose

body in her knee for 9 months.

She put off surgery despite fre-

quent episodes of catching and

severe pain. She was masking

her pain with regular Percocettablets. At the time of surgery,

we found severe diffuse arthri-

tis in her knee, likely resulting

from the loose body repeti-

tively scraping along her

weight bearing cartilage sur-

faces.

The physical therapist

tells us that Mrs. has been one

of the hardest working patients

that they have seen, and her

rehab has been remarkably

smooth. About a month after

surgery, she was complaining of

some aching with weather

changes but was pain-free with

almost full range of motion.

She had already returned to

full time work at her job in

Manhattan for 3 weeks.

Hypotonia is our topic

of the month. We

will provide valuable

information about this treat-

able condition.

Things to know about hypo-

tonia:

The degree of stiffness

required to move the body for

the child with hypotonia is

inadequate.

The child cannot gener-

ate enough force at the joints

to support movements like sit-

ting up, rolling or standing.

Low muscle tone can be

associated with a feeling of

heaviness or limpness when

the infant or child is picked

up. Parents often describe it as

“dead weight.”

There is a large contin-

uum of low muscle tone rang-

ing from slight involvement to

severe.

Basic problems of the infant

or child with hypotonia:

Parents notice excessive

floppiness of the infant and

general inactivity. The infant

feels very flexible and has dif-

ficulty controlling their head

and trunk during feeding,

dressing , bathing and carry-

ing.

The infant is limited in

physical ability to maintain se-

cure and balanced positions

like sitting, standing or crawl-

ing. If the infant cannot move

around to explore the envi-

ronment, cognitive delay may

result.

A school age child with

low muscle tone may be con-

sidered a couch potato, floppy,

clumsy in dance class, uncoor-

dinated or uninterested in ath-

letics.

If hypotonia is left un-

treated the infant or child may

be at risk for shoulder and hip

dislocation, scolisosis, pelvic

torsion and oral motor prob-

lems.

The cause of hypotonia may

be:

Hypotonicity may be a

characteristic of a central

nervous system dysfunction

such as cerebral palsy, Down

Syndrome or developmental

delay.

Connective tissue disor-

ders, metabolic and endocrine

disorders and a variety of syn-

dromes can result in hypo-

tonicity.

How is hypotonia treated?

Postural tone is change-

able and treatment relies on

the infant’s or child’s self ini-

tiated activity to change low

muscle tone.

Automatic responses to

changes in posture are stimu-

lated and more independent

movement results.

As the infant or child re-

peats and practices these

movement patterns, they be-

come more independent and

develop the ability to roll, sit

walk, jump and hop without

help.

The pediatric physical

and occupational therapist

work together to increase

function in gross motor, fine

motor, oral motor and cogni-

tive development.

Gena Livingston is a pediatric

physical therapist, who brings

over five years of experience to

Kids’ Therapy Center™ of

Riverdale. Specializing in early

childhood intervention, Gena is

very experienced treating chil-

dren with cerebral palsy, delayed

motor development, autism, tor-

Maintaining a healthy

back requires a bal-

ance of flexibility

and strength between the key

postural muscle groups of the

body. These muscle groups sta-

bilize the pelvis and lower

back, and the head, neck and

shoulders. Because these are

postural muscles, meaning they

play intrinsic roles in main-

taining correct upright posture

and alignment, these muscle

groups are vitally important to

back health.

The key postural muscles

of the pelvis and lower back

include the quadriceps and

hamstrings of the thigh, the

hip flexors, the gluteal mus-

cles (buttocks), the abdomi-

nals and finally the erector

spinae of the low and mid-

back. As a general rule, the

leg muscles (quadriceps and

hamstrings) and hip flexors

are the muscle groups most

prone to developing flexibil-

ity deficiencies. Chronic

weakness is more of a problem

involving the erector spinae,

abdominal and gluteal muscle

groups. Simultaneous flexibil-

ity and strength deficiencies,

however, are often seen in

several groups, such as the

hamstrings and hip flexors.

Balance between flexi-

bility and strength of these

muscle groups is what is most

critical to maintaining a

healthy back. Exercises to

stretch and strengthen these

muscles are available from

many sources. It is necessary,

however, to first learn which

groups need stretching and

which need strengthening be-

fore embarking on a stretch/

strength exercise program,

and what exercise is best for

you. As back care is what

Chiropractors specialize in,

your chiropractor can help

Matthew has also had the thrill of studying with world-renowned therapists Brian Mulligan and David Butler, furtherexpanding his clinical skills into more diverse orthopedic and

nerve injury treatments. Not to be missed, Matthew alsotrained in the McKenzie Diagnosis and treatment of the spine.Matthew believes the combination of this training andeducation in the Australian, New Zealand and Americantreatment strategies have allowed him to provide broaderrange of treatment options thereby helping more patients.

Obesity is a growing

problem in today’s so-

ciety. Our feline friends

are no exception. The differ-

ence is that they rely on us to

regulate their food and exercise.

Obesity is a condition that is

both preventable and treatable

but requires some effort and

patience. The re-

wards are having

your cat live a

healthy happy and

most importantly,

longer life.

Prevention is

much easier than

taking off the excess

weight once it is

there. Just like peo-

ple, the name of the

game is diet and ex-

ercise. I am an advocate of

keeping your cat indoors so this

doesn’t mean to start letting

him/her outside but dedicate

some time everyday to play with

your cat. Not only will it pro-

vide exercise but also stimula-

tion. Two favorite types of toys

are string toys or laser lights.

The other component of

prevention is diet. First, with

the assistance of your veterinar-

ian, an appropriate food should

be chosen. Cats need different

types and amounts of food dur-

ing their life stages. This does

not include table food or exces-

sive amounts of treats. The

biggest mistake is feeding your

cat free choice, i.e. just keeping

the bowl full. Some cats regu-

late their intake but most will

overeat therefore it’s best to pro-

vide food in measured meals.

The most objective way to

tell if your cat is overweight is

to have your veterinarian assign

a body condition score. Basi-

cally two things are assessed.

One, the ribs should be felt eas-

ily with only a slight amount of

fat over them. Two, look at

your cat from above and from

the side at the area between the

last rib and hindlegs, they

should have a definite waist or

“hourglass” shape.

Overweight cats have

many of the

same health

risks as over-

weight people.

One of the most

common com-

plications of

obesity in cats is

diabetes. One

of the early signs

of diabetes are

an increase in

thirst or urina-

tion. Other health risks include

arthritis, heart disease, liver dis-

ease, urinary obstruction in

males and skin problems. All

these can contribute to a de-

creased quality and length of

life.

If your cat is indeed over-

weight, it is time to start a

weight reduction program now.

As we all know, there’s no quick

fix for weight loss. The first step

is to have your cat examined by

a veterinarian prior to initiating

a weight control program.

Since certain medical condi-

tions can cause obesity in cats,

it must be determined if there is

an underlying cause or if there

are other conditions present,

which could complicate weight

loss. Your veterinarian can also

help you determine a realistic

weight goal. It is important to

understand the process may

take a long time because even a

small amount of weight loss is a

large percentage of the cat’s

overall body weight. Plus, rapid

weight loss in overweight cats is

risky because it can result in

liver disease called hepatic lipi-

dosis (fatty liver).

The focus of the weight

loss program is the same as with

prevention: diet and exercise.

There are two main ways to cut

down on calories: feed less of

the food the cat is currently eat-

ing or switch to a weight reduc-

tion diet. Table scraps also need

to be eliminated and treats min-

imized. Feeding less may just

entail measuring meals instead

of free choice but weight loss

foods are usually more success-

ful. Weight loss diets are typi-

cally either low calorie/high

fiber or low carb/high protein.

They can provide reduced calo-

ries and also keep your cat satis-

fied so they’re not waking you

up to be fed. Exercise programs

for cats seem more difficult than

those for dogs. Trying new toys,

initiating playtime and getting

the whole household involved

are important.

All this hard work will

keep your cat happier, healthier

and you can enjoy a longer life

together. For more information,

Do you suffer from

chronic lower back

pain? Do you experi-

ence leg pain, numbness or

weakness? These may be symp-

toms of a herniated disc.

In the past, open surgery

was often the only option for

patients with herniated discs.

Today, new treatment options

for back pain and sciatica exist.

A new minimally invasive

treatment for herniated

discs uses water. It’s called

HydroDiscectomy (hi-dro-

Disk-eck-toe-me). HydroDis-

cectomy uses a high-speed

water stream to remove herni-

ated disc tissue, relieving the

nerve pressure that causes back

and leg pain.

HydroDiscectomy is per-

formed using a fluoroscope,

which is a machine that proj-

ects live x-ray pictures onto a

monitor. This allows the physi-

cian to place the SpineJet de-

vice within the spinal disc

without using a large incision.

The physician will insert

the SpineJet device by dilating

a tiny hole in the disc wall.

Once the device is in place, the

water-jet action works to

quickly remove the herniated

disc tissue. The procedure is

usually performed using light

sedation. The entire procedure

takes 30-45 minutes. Hy-

droDiscectomy is an outpatient

procedure and therefore, allows

you to go home the same day.

Specialty trained physi-

cian, Dr. Amr Hosny, performs

HydroDiscectomy as well as

many other minimally invasive

procedures to alleviate neck,

back and leg pain. Dr. Hosny

discusses and designs a treat-

ment plan that best fits the

need of the patient suffering

from acute or chronic

pain. The goal is to help the

patient restore possible maxi-

mum function and manage that

pain.

Amr Hosny, MD, MBA, cur-

rently serves as the Medical Di-

rector of New Jersey Pain Care

Center and New York Pain

Care. Dr. Hosny’s training in-

cludes the completion of an

Anesthesiology residency at St.

Luke’s Roosevelt Hospital Cen-

ter, Columbia University, in

New York City. He then com-

pleted an Interventional Pain

Medicine fellowship at Beth Is-

rael Deaconess Medical Center,

Harvard Medical School,

in Boston, MA.

Dr. Hosny is an Associate Pro-

fessor of Anesthesiology at New

York Medical College, and is

triple board certified in Interven-

tional Pain Medicine, Anesthe-

siology, as well as Hospice and

Palliative Medicine. He has lec-

tured extensively on topics rang-

ing from spinal cord stimulation

for neuropathic pain and com-

plex regional pain syndrome, to

pharmacological approaches

for chronic pain.

With summer right

around the cor-

ner, many people

have been doing some spring

cleaning around the house.

Instead of bringing old

clothes, sporting equipment,

and household items to the

dump, you should consider

donating them to a local

charity or thrift store. Some-

one will find a use for your

unwanted items and you

could potentially lower your

taxable income if you qualify

for itemized deductions. You

can qualify for itemized de-

ductions if you exceed the al-

lowable standard deduction,

which in 2011 is $5,800 for

singles and $11,600 for mar-

ried couples filing jointly.

In order to maximize the

tax benefits of your dona-

tions, you must first make

sure that you are donating the

items to an accredited organ-

ization. The IRS specifically

defines a qualified organiza-

tion, but the organization

must, in general, operate for

religious, charitable, educa-

tional, scientific, anti-animal

or child abuse, and/or literary

purposes. Note that donations

made to specific individuals

or political organizations and

their candidates never qualify.

However, donations to an en-

tity which performs a substan-

tial government function,

like a donation to your local

police department, can be de-

ducted. If you have questions

about whether or not a spe-

cific organization qualifies,

please see IRS publication

526, or give us a call here in

the office.

Secondly, if you’re do-

nating clothing or household

items to charity, the items

must be in good condition

and you are only allowed to

deduct the fair market value

of the item. In general, the

fair market value is the price

at which property would

change hands between a will-

ing buyer and seller. This is

sometimes referred to as the

“thrift market” cost of an

item. Moreover, if your con-

tribution recently appreciated

in value, this would mean

more money in your pocket.

Remember that you’ll need to

collect a signed receipt from

the organization as proof of

your donation. Furthermore,

for contributions equal to or

greater than $250 in value,

you must obtain written ac-

knowledgement from the or-

ganization showing the

amount of cash or a descrip-

tion of any property con-

tributed, and whether the

organization provided any

goods or services in exchange

for the contributions. If you

are feeling especially generous

and plan to donate an item or

group of items worth more

than $5,000, you should have

it appraised. In today’s digital

age, you might even consider

taking a pictures or a video of

your non-cash charitable con-

tribution as further documen-

tation of your donation. If

you receive a benefit from do-

nating—like tickets to a base-

ball game for instance—you

may only deduct the amount

that exceeds the fair market

value of the benefit received.

If you donate your old

car and the charity turns

around and sells it your de-

duction is limited to the

amount the car actually sells

for, which could be less than

the fair market value or blue

book value. Some charities

will sell your car at auction

for only a few hundred dollars

which could significantly

limit your tax deduction.

So, if you are planning

on doing some spring clean-

ing, be sure to follow these

simple guidelines. There are

many other ways to leverage

the tax benefits of your de-

ductible charitable contribu-

tions. If you have any

questions, be sure to contact

this firm.

Homeowners concerned

about high energy bills

have put energy con-

servation home improvements

at the top of their must-do list

this year. They are looking for

green living upgrades that save

money without sacrificing space

or style.

Because heating costs are

typically one of the highest

and most variable home ex-

penses, homeowners are con-

sidering energy-efficient zone

heating options when embark-

ing on home renovation proj-

ects.

Craig Shankster, Presi-

dent of Morso USA, has seen

an increase in fireplace

makeovers in the last few

years, “Finding and eliminat-

ing wasteful drafts has lead

many homeowners to install

efficient wood stoves and in-

serts that transform inefficient

open fireplaces into high per-

forming heating zones.”

Homes without chimneys

or fireplaces can install aMorso 5660 fireplace insert

with an innovative zero-clear-

ance enclosure. This is an ex-

cellent zone heating option for

those in the process of a reno-

vation or new build looking to

outfit their homes with the ad-

vanced technology of a fire-

place insert and class a

chimney.

Since buying a wood

stove is much like buying fur-

niture, you will find a wide-

choice of models that match

every lifestyle and design inter-

est, including antique, tradi-

tional, classic or modern.

gone the extra mile to produce

the highest quality and most

energy efficient wood stove,

possible.

3. Similar to grocery shopping,

seek out the equivalent of an

“Organic Section” in your

local fireplace hearth store to

compare the quality standards,

eco-wise content, and war-

ranties.

Additionally, if living bygreen principles is important to

you — and it should be —

properly burning local wood in

a high efficiency wood stove is

an environmentally-sound ac-

tion. Given that the use of sus-

tainably-harvested, properlypro-cessed and seasoned wood

for energy displaces the use of

fossil fuels, the result is a net

reduction in greenhouse gas

emissions.

To learn more about the

renewable benefits of local

wood energy, watch the Morso

educational videos that

demonstrate how to fully real-

ize the renewable benefits of

local wood energy without be-ginner missteps or old-school

methods. There are five free

videos that teach how to

choose, install, operate, main-

tain, and fuel your wood

stove that are available on

http://www.morsona.com,

Facebook, and YouTube.

Today is a great time to in-

vest in a wood stove so you can

actually keep some green cash

in your pocket. The Federal Bio-Mass Tax Credit extension pro-

vides a 10 percent tax credit up

to $300 for the purchase of a

new biomass heating appliance

in 2011.This tax credit helps

homeowners save on energy

costs by utilizing renewable bio-

mass fuels such as wood.

wood stove options, visit

E

nergy efficient con-

struction is celebrating

one more milestone. It

is now possible to build a fa-cility — even a home — that

is so energy efficient it pro-

duces zero demand on the

public electricity supply.

Proving this in the past

few months is the opening of

the Richardsville Elementary

School in Lexington, Ken-

tucky, the first ‘net-zero’

school in North America.

This achievement has utilized

features like an innovativewall system — and the entire

building is expected to push

the efficiency benchmarks be-

yond all expectations.

“In addition to rock-

solid walls, the rooftop solar

panels cover 40,000 square

feet providing for all of the

school’s electricity needs,”

says Todd Blyth at Nudura, a

leading name in construction

efficiencies.Blyth also explained that

any construction project

today can aim at net-zero, but

to achieve it cost efficiently

the building envelope must

provide maximum insulation.

“This school sets a stan-

dard that can be applied to

homebuilding too,” he con-

tinued. “If, at the outset, de-

cisions are made carefully

regarding the walls, windows,roofing, water management,

ventilation and indoor cli-

mate control, you are well on

your way to completely offset-

ting energy consumption.”Here are a few of the net-

zero design components of

Richardsville Elementary:

•A roof designed with solar

panels and electricity grid.

•Geothermal heating and

cooling for environmentally

responsible efficiency.

•Walls of concrete. The

Nudura system is comprised

of stay-in-place, pre-assem-

bled blocks, steel reinforced,and then filled with concrete.

It replaces traditional build-

ing methods. The durability

and energy efficiency of con-

crete has shown to reduce en-

ergy costs up to 70 percent.

Better still, the entire struc-

ture (www.nudura.com) is re-

ported to be up to nine times

stronger, with far more fireprotection and with far more

sound insulation.

•Ventilation includes a CO2

monitoring system to keep

good air quality indoors and

allow no more outdoor air

than necessary.

•Positioning is north-south,

allowing for effective day

lighting (without glare) so

that all artificial lighting can

be off during 70 percent of school hours.

•Computers are wireless. Five

carts, each loaded with 30

laptops save energy, wiring

and construction of a com-

puter lab. Laptops use a frac-

tion of the energy used to run

a typical desktop computer.

•Kitchen staff is trained in

energy-efficient food prepara-tion. Typically, kitchens ac-

count for 25 percent of a

school’s energy drain.

The backyard barbecue

is one of America’s

most beloved, iconic

traditions. Summertime enter-

taining season is upon us once

again, meaning it’s time to

perfect your grilling game to

avoid falling into the same old

rut. Boring burgers and ho-hum hot dogs can get old

fast, but it’s easier than you

might think to add a spark to

your outdoor cooking.

The following tasty tips

and simple tricks from Taste-

fully Simple, the original

home taste-test party com-

pany offering high-quality,

easy-to-prepare foods, will

help ensure your backyard

blowout is the best party onthe block.

Keep the heat out of the

kitchen. Think twice before

cranking up the stove or oven

this summer. Is it really nec-

essary to cook indoors, or

could you easily prepare your

favorite foods on the grill in-

stead? Most summer hosts and

hostesses think about cooking

meats on the grill, yet rarely

realize the potential forgrilling snacks, sides and even

desserts. Serve this “100 Per-

cent Grilled” menu at your

next summer soiree and get

ready for your guests’ rave re-

views:

•For an unexpected appetizer,

grill quesadillas stuffed with

cheddar cheese and corn and

black bean salsa. Top with

sour cream and cilantro.

•Sprinkle chicken breasts

with Tastefully Simple Every-

day Grillin’ Seasoning and

top with Smoky Bacon Grill

Sauce as a finishing touch.

•Brush fresh vegetables like

asparagus, zucchini and mush-rooms with an infused olive

oil before grilling for incredi-

ble color and flavor.

•Place buttered slices of your

favorite pound cake on the

grill until just heated through.

Top with grilled peaches, ice

cream and caramel sauce for a

truly decadent dessert.

Savor seafood. On warm

weather days, appetites lean

toward lighter fare. Rather

than serving a hearty meal of

beef or pork, try grilling up

your family’s favorite seafood.

Place shrimp, peppers and

onions on a skewer to make a

spectacular shish kabob.Salmon is healthy and deli-

cious when grilled on a cedar

plank, while adding hickory

chips to your coals can add

incredible flavor to grilled

seafood, meat or veggies. Just

Marinades and spice

rubs can add extra

flavor to foods

cooked on the grill. Allowing

them to penetrate the meat

enables the flavors to be even

more pronounced.

Creating a spice rub is

not difficult. In fact, it can bequite enjoyable experiment-

ing with different flavor com-

binations to find a flavor

profile you enjoy the most.

Here are some tips to achieve

a good spice rub.

•Most rubs feature salt as one

of the ingredients. Use sea

salt or kosher salt in the mix

instead of iodized table salt

for a better flavor.

•Buy whole spices and herbs

and chop/grind them yourself

for the freshest flavor. If using

herbs, be sure they are dried

herbs.•Be sure to use new spices.

Old spices tend to lose their

flavor and won’t be as impres-

sive in the rub.

•Slightly heating the rub mix

will make the flavor even

more pronounced.

•Store your rub mix sealed

tightly in a jar or plastic con-

tainer. Place in a cool, dark

place.

•Use the rub within 2

months for best flavor.

Now that you know how to

create your rub, try this recipe

to get started.

Sweet and Spicy Barbecue

Rub

1/2 cup brown sugar

3 tablespoons white sugar

2 tablespoons kosher salt

3 tablespoons f resh,

cracked pepper

2 tablespoons paprika

1 tablespoon cayenne

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Apply the rub liberally to the

meat and rub in thoroughly

on both sides. Cook on indi-

rect heat. This is also a good

rub recipe for using with a

smoker.

One of the missions at

Apple Montessori

Schools is to educate

the whole child and this does

not only include academics!

At Apple Montessori, they seek

to instill in their students respect

and compassion for others

through example and action.

Every year, Apple Montessori’s

students participate in age appro-priate activities to raise funds for

those less fortunate. They take

great pride in the growing evi-

dence of character and gen-

erosity within Apple’s school

community!

This year, Apple Montes-

sori Schools united its 15 cam-

pus locations throughout New

Jersey, as well as its nearly three

hundred employees, to come to-

gether for one cause – The

Ronald McDonald House Char-

ities. Each of the Apple

Montessori School locations

held events to benefit RMHC

and raised a total of $20,000.00

from family donations, as well as

donation from The Bailey Fam-

ily, owners/directors of Apple

Montessori Schools.Ronald McDonald House

Charities of the New York Tri-

State Area (RMHC-NYTSA)

is working to better the lives of

children and their families in

our communities by creating

and supporting programs that

directly improve the health and

well-being of children in the

areas of health, education, and

the arts, civic and social issues.

Since 1992, RMHC-NYTSAhas provided more than $10

million dollars to local non-

profit organizations whose pro-

grams improve the well-being of

children and their families. For

loin filletsTastefully Simple Merlot

Sauce

2-3 tablespoons blue cheese

crumbles

Wrap one slice of bacon

around each fillet; secure with

a toothpick. Brush Merlot

Sauce on both sides of each

fillet. Grill over medium heat

to desired temperature, about

four minutes per side formedium-rare. Top each steak

with another small drizzle of

Merlot Sauce; sprinkle with

blue cheese crumbles. (Serves

two)

Put safety first. No mat-

ter what you decide to grill up

this summer, remember your

food safety basics. Always

wash your hands before and

after handling raw poultry or

meat. Use a meat thermome-ter to ensure all meats, poul-

try and seafood are thor-

oughly cooked to the recom-

mended safe temperature.

Don’t let buffet items lan-

guish in the hot sun; instead,

keep meats warm until you’re

ready to serve, and promptly

refrigerate any leftovers. Each

of these precautions will help

protect you, your family and

your guests from the dangersof food-borne illnesses.

and tricks up your sleeve, ex-

There are many factors

buyers consider when

shopping for a home.

From the number of bedrooms

to the size of the backyard,

prospective buyers have theirpriorities with what they’re look-

ing for in a home. Parents to

young children or couples who

are planning to start a family

soon should also consider the

school system.

Although granite counter-

tops and interior living area may

be foremost on the minds of

house shoppers, individuals also

have to take school districts into

consideration when looking at

homes, particularly if they’re

concerned about giving their

children the best education pos-

sible. According to research byThe Wall Street Journal, buyers

are willing to pay more for a

property if it is in a good school

district. That’s because even if

they do not have children, buy-

ers know that a good school dis-

trict helps a home remain

attractive.

Not all schools are created

equal, and some rank better in

test scores and teacher-to-stu-

dent ratios than others. These

are essential factors to think

about when looking at homes.

Although real estate agents can

offer some basic informationabout what schools are in the

area, legally they may not be

able to share opinions on how

“good”the schools are or be able

to break down the demograph-

ics of student populations. It is

typically up to the buyer to do

his or her own research.

Schools a big factor in home purchase

that home owners pay largely go

to fund schools and town im-

provements, it is important to

look at the schools. Also, if the

home will be a stepping stone to

another home in a few years,

buyers want to ensure their

home has the best chance for

resale. Oftentimes, a good

school district is a factor future

buyers will think about.There are some Web sites

that can help prospective buy-

ers look at the schools in the

areas they are considering.

GreatSchools.net and Educa-

tion.com are two of the premier

sites. They break down test

scores, demographics, parent

and student reviews and many

other things that are vital to

getting a picture of the school asa whole. The sites also use a

ranking system from 1 to 10 (10

being the best) to show how the

school stands in comparison to

others in terms of test scores.

Buyers also may want to

make a trip to visit the area

they’re considering during

school hours. This way they can

drive by the school and see for

themselves the type of studentsand parents entering or exiting

the building. One also may

want to set up a brief meeting

with the principal to learn more

about the ideals of the school

and its goals.

It’s also necessary to look

at the proximity of the school to

the house. Some towns have

rules in place regarding busing

or walking to school. Studentswho live within a certain dis-

tance from the school may have

to find their own transportation

to and from school. This is

something to mull over.

Families that are interested

in a host of extracurricular ac-

tivities can also evaluate the

town or school district based on

the sports or other opportunities

offered to students.Be advised that the school

closest to a home might not be

the one a student will attend.

Zoning laws, and not necessarily

proximity, often dictate where a

student will attend school.

Therefore, it is important to

check with the real estate agent

or town to ensure the research

•Passaic Valley Hospice, a non-

profit organization is in need of volunteers for various duties.

Volunteers are an integral part

of the professional Hospice

team that provides physical,

emotional and spiritual support

to the terminally ill. They work

directly with patients and fami-

lies providing respite for care-

givers, companionship for

patients and families and run er-

being done is for the correct

school.

Some parents prefer their

children go to private school,

and many towns and cities have

a number of options. In additionto the public schools, agents

should be able to point buyers

toward the private schools in

the area. Some may be able to

list tuition costs and acceptance

requirements.

Having a picture of the

school district in the area buy-

ers are considering will help

offer a better idea of the neigh-

borhood and the people around

whom they’ll be living. School

districts are important to con-sider when buying a home, so

much so that buyers are willing

to pay a little more if it means

having a good school in their

area.

Schools a big factor in home purchase
