May Day is an ancient

festival that wel-

comes spring and

was once celebrated widely on

May 1 every year. May Dayfalls approximately halfway

be-tween the spring equinox

and the summer solstice and

has its origins in pre-Christian

times. May Day commemo-

rates festivals of fertility and

agriculture. Ancient Romanscelebrated the festival of

Flora, the Roman goddess of

flowers. But May Day is also

related to the Celtic festival of

Beltane, a springtime festival

of optimism, and the

Germanic festival of Walpur-gis Night, which also cele-

Ive been thinking a lot

about this lately. I met the

most beautiful woman Id

ever had the pleasure of laying

my eyes on in 1984, at 23 years

of age. Her name was Teresa

Faith, but her friends called her

Terry. We started working

together in 1984, which simul-

taneously led to a romance.

She accepted my proposal of

marriage shortly after, making

it official on June 1, 1986.

If you think about it for a

moment, most husbands and

wives go their separate ways

each day for at least eight hours

of the working day. She to her

job and he to his. When chil-

dren enter the picture, she usu-

ally stays home and he usually

goes to work, so they are still

separated those eight hours,

plus commuting time and over-

time. Weekends might allow

the spouses some time together,

unless there is another part-time job for either one of them

or both. At the very least, the

kids extracurricular and sport-

ing activities challenge that

time as well, leaving them

apart for the majority of the

Saturdays and Sundays, for

nearly two decades. If one of

them bowls, plays golf religious-

ly or engages in a club activity,

that is even more time they

spend apart. Some married cou-ples spend time apart with

friends acquired during high

school or college fraternity or

sorority; others spend separate

time pursuing a hobby or

attending classes for self-

advancement. All wonderful

activities and opportunities.

But not me. No, my course was

a little different.

You see, Terry and I have

been doing everything together

24 hours a day for 29 years now.

Ever since we met, weve basi-

cally spent everyday side-by-

side. We worked seven days a

week for the company that

brought us together for seven

years. Then we built a businesstogether. Diversified Financial

Services Group started in 1991

in Pompton Lakes and moved

to Wayne 10 years later. In

2006, that company morphed

into the first and foremost fran-

chise in the retirement and

estate planning industry,

American Prosperity Group,

which now spans 10 states with

18 offices.

During the same time and I give Terry all of the cred-

it we grew our family size

from a hard working dynamic

couple to a bustling family of

six! Terry brought Chelsie, our

first child, to the office every

day; when she became mobile;

we expanded our office to

include a nursery for her and

her new brother, Zachary, near-

ly four years later. When Zac

Anew study in the

medical journal

Acta Odontologica

Scandinvica indicates that

bleaching with large quantities

of hydrogen peroxide

between 35 and 38 percent,

the strength of in-office

whitening treatments can

change the makeup of enamel.

Dental products have recentlybegun advertising that they

can help rebuild enamel and

whiten teeth using remineraliz-

ing agents. However, these

agents dont necessarily help

teeth recoup their enamel after

whitening procedures.

Researchers conducted an

experiment with bovine teeth

whitened by hydrogen perox-

ide with strength of 35 to 38

percent. The makeup of the

enamel was studied 24 hours

after treatment, and again aftertwo weeks. Half of the samples

were then exposed to a rem-

ineralizing agent.

Teeth exposed to the rem-

ineralizing agent showed the

highest microhardness after 24

hours. The microhardness

level, however, was not the

same after 14 days. Also, the

structure and makeup for all of

the samples after 14 days

showed many abnormalities.The concept of such new

remineralizing agents being

added to toothpastes and rinses

is still controversial.

graduate of The University of

Pennsylvania and has been

Business fraud is every-

where. It can range

from employees pilfer-

ing small items from the

office to embezzling hun-

dreds of thousands of dollars.

And crimes may be commit-

ted by anyone from the low-

est-paid clerk to a long-time

officer. All too often, busi-

ness owners are oblivious to

wrongdoings or they simply

refuse to acknowledge the

possibilities until its too

late.

Dont make the same

mistakes as countless other

victims. Here are five practi-

cal suggestions for thwarting

workplace fraud.

1.Keep your eyes wide open.

View your operation like an

outsider and identify the

areas that appear ripe for

fraud. If a security problem

persists, dont ignore it and

simply hope it will vanish.

Confront the toughest issues

head-on.

2.Review and adjust internal

controls. Accountants often

pinpoint this area as a main

culprit. Install a system of

checks and balances and reg-

ularly monitor activities.

Note that employees may be

deterred from theft if the

process is well-documented.

Otherwise, they may think

they wont be caught.

3.Develop reporting and

investigation procedures.

Encourage your employees to

come forth about suspicious

activities, but keep matters

confidential. When its war-

ranted, respond promptly

and decisively. You will also

discourage fraud by showing

that actions have conse-

quences.

4.Dont become complacent.

Even if no fraud is detected

after an initial sweep,

you must remain vigilant.

Continue to adhere to the

procedures youve estab-

lished. Also, make sure that

you follow through on any

unresolved issues to their

completion.

5.Rely on your professional

advisors. For instance, an

attorneys services may be

required if you decide to seek

legal damages, while an

accountant can help imple-

ment and update internal

controls.

Of course, there are no

guarantees, but these five

proactive steps should, at the

very least, minimize risks to

your company.

Receiving the Sacra-

ment of the Eucharist is

a momentous event in a

young Christians life, marking

one of the first steps he or she

takes in individual faith forma-

tion. Children who receive the

Eucharist are further initiated

into the church and this enables

them to receive Communion at

each and every mass thereafter,

provided they remain in good

standing with the church.

Christian families place

great significance on the

Eucharist and most want to

commemorate the occasion

with a party. Some people treat

it as they would a wedding or

Sweet 16 party, inviting friends

and extended family members.

Others prefer to keep the cele-

bration a bit more intimate.

Regardless of the size of the

party, there are some tips to

make it a memorable affair thats

fun for everyone.

Dont start planning until

you confirm the date of the cer-

emony. Some churches have

one date on which they hold

administer to all candidates at a

special mass. Others may stagger

the ceremonies over the course

of several dates and may inter-

twine their Eucharist cere-

monies with the regular mass

schedule. Either way, parents

should confirm the date months

in advance so they have ample

time to schedule parties and

shop for appropriate attire.

Reserve your date quickly.

Once you know the date of the

ceremony, do not delay if you

plan to hold a party at a restau-

rant or intend to hire a caterer

for a party at home. Not only

will you be competing for dateswith other parents whose chil-

dren will also be receiving the

sacrament, but also you may be

going up against those planning

April or May weddings or grad-

uation parties. If there is a par-

ticular restaurant or banquet

hall you have in mind, reserve

the date quickly and leave a

deposit to secure the reserva-

tion.

Consider a catered affair.Very often a Communion

reception takes place shortly

after the ceremony at church.

This means guests will go direct-

ly from the church to the party.

Catering the party will ensure

food is ready as your guests

arrive. This also cuts down on

the amount of preparatory work

you will have to do. Restaurants,

delis, fast-food establishments,

warehouse centers, and super-

markets are all viable catering

options depending on the scale

of the party. To keep costs down,

buy frozen, premade foods from

the grocery store, and then sim-

ply heat them up for guests.

Hire entertainment. If

the party will be a larger affair

with a number of children in

attendance, it may pay to hire

an entertainer like a magician,

balloon artist or deejay to keep

everyone entertained and

occupied. Again, since many

Communion ceremonies take

place in the spring when wed-

ding receptions and gradua-

tion parties also take place,

reserve your entertainers early

on. Remember to give the

deejay a play list that will

include music for all ages in

attendance.

A young person receiv-

ing the Sacrament of the

Eucharist is something worth

celebrating. Ensure your party

is a success by planning out

the details in advance and

hosting the best party you can

within your desired budget.

The days when single

income households

were the norm are long

gone, as nowadays both Mom

and Dad must work in order to

make ends meet. That reality

has left many women juggling

the obligations of motherhood

with the obligations of a suc-

cessful career.

Such a juggling act is sel-

dom easy, and many mothers

find themselves neglecting one

obligation for the benefit of

another. The following are a

few tips to make balancing

work and family a little easier.

Share the responsibilities.

While the days of the single-

income household may be a

thing of the past, many of the

conventions of those days

remain. Women may still feel

the responsibility to cook fami-

ly meals, clean up after the

children and make it to all of

their childrens sporting events

or other school-related events.

But those responsibilities

should be shared so women can

ensure theyre giving both their

careers and families the atten-

tion each deserves. Devise a

schedule where both parents

tackle such responsibilities

equally so each parent knows

when they have some wiggle

room. For example, if your hus-

band routinely cooks on

Tuesdays, then you know you

wont need to rush home on

Tuesday night and you might

be able to stay at the office a lit-

tle later to work on a project or

catch up on work. Such sharing

and scheduling can consider-

ably reduce the stress of jug-

gling a family and a career.

Exercise daily. Juggling a

family and a career is often

stressful, and stress can have a

very adverse effect on your

health. Women with high

stress levels are more likely to

suffer from depression, anxiety

and cardiovascular disease. But

the American Psychological

Association notes the positive

impact of exercise as a means to

alleviating stress, citing studies

that have shown that physical-

ly active people have lower

rates of anxiety and depression

than people who are sedentary.

Its easy to become irritable

when stressed, and no mother

wants to be irritable in the pres-

ence of her children.

Tips for women juggling a family and a career


12/28

D

uring its first few hours

of life, your kitten

receives natural imm-

unity against most diseases

from its mothers first milk, the

colostrum. But eventually your

kittens immune system will

have to fend for itself.

Vaccinations provide your kit-

ten good protection against

some life-threatening diseases.

Heres an explanation of the

vaccines you need or may want

to consider, as recommended

by your veterinarian.

1. FVR-C-P. The upper respira-

tory infection seen in cats is a

complex clinical disease. FVR-

C-P protects your cat against

the two viruses most likely to

cause an upper respiratory

infection in your cat feline

rhinotracheitis (feline herpes

virus) and feline calicivirus.

Infections with these viruses

can cause discharge from the

nose or eye, respiratory prob-

lems, mouth sores, anorexia

and abortion. FVR-C-P also

protects against panleukope-

nia feline distemper an

acute gastrointestinal viral

infection associated with a

sudden onset, depression,

vomiting, diarrhea, dehydra-

tion and a high mortality rate.

These vaccines require boost-

ers two to four weeks apart;

the last dose is given at 12 to

16 weeks.

2. FeLV. Feline leukemia virus

vaccines are available for

interested cat owners. This

vaccine is recommended only

for those cats with high expo-

sure potential, such as outdoor

cats, show cats and those liv-

ing in multiple-cat households

(even if all are considered

indoor-only). Before trying

out the FeLV vaccine, have

your cat tested to see if it

already has the disease. Half of

all cats who get FeLV will die

from complications associated

with the disease. Consult with

your veterinarian if this vac-

cine is right for your cat.

3. FIP. Feline Infectious

Peritonitis, which is associated

with anorexia, weight loss,

growth stunting, gradually

developing potbelly and fever,

has a very high mortality rate.

A vaccine was developed six

years ago and can be given to

cats older than 16 weeks of age.

It requires two doses, three to

four weeks apart. The effective-

ness of this vaccine in prevent-

ing this fatal feline disease is

still being tested and is debat-

able; therefore, most veterinar-

ians do not recommend this

vaccine at this time.

4. Rabies. Most of us associate

rabies with the mad dog froth-

ing at the mouth, eager to bite

anything near it. Although this

is a common presentation in

countries where there is a very

high population of unvaccinat-

ed stray dogs, in the U.S., rabies

usually appears in wild animals.

Rabies vaccination is required

in New Jersey and can be

administered at greater than 12

weeks of age in felines. All

warm-blooded animals

including you can get rabies.

The prognosis, unfortunately, is

fatal.

Few medical procedures

are without risk. While trying

to prevent disease in your cat,

there is a small chance that

harm may be done. Veterinar-

ians have observed a chance of

developing a vaccine-associat-

ed sarcoma at a rate of 20 per

100,000 cats. A veterinary task

force, the American Veterinary

Medical Foundation,

has been assigned to this

problem and makes the

following statement on

its website: Disturbing

as this issue may be,

there is great concern

that cat owners, attempting to

keep their cats from harm, may

forgo vaccination entirely. The

result? Though well inten-

tioned, these owners may be

placing cats at far greater risk of

acquiring a fatal infection than

any risk the vaccine poses. And

in the case of rabies, human

health is at risk as well.

After your vaccinations,

ask your veterinarian to

point out where the injec-

tions were placed and then

keep an eye on those sites. If

you notice a firm, painless

swelling located near a previ-

ous vaccination site, contacts

your veterinarian.

Your local veterinarian

can provide more information

about vaccinations for your

pet. What is given often

depends on the risk of specific

diseases in your geographic

area, your pets lifestyle and

state laws.

Protect your companion

animals and yourself by paying

a visit to your local veterinar-

ian and following the suggest-

ed vaccination protocol.

Incorporating exercise into

your daily routine is a great way

to alleviate the stress of jug-

gling a family and a career, and

you can even incorporate your

family into your exercise rou-

tine, going for nightly walks

after dinner or playing with

your children in the yard.

Stay involved with your

childs school. Many mothers

find staying active with their

childrens school is a great

opportunity for them to bond

with their kids and keep abreast

of developments at their

school. Such involvement can

be minimal, such as attending a

monthly luncheon with kids or

agreeing to be a chaperone on

one or two class trips per year.

Such events are typically

scheduled months in advance,

so you should have ample time

to arrange a break from the

office without neglecting your

professional responsibilities.

Take advantage of work-

from-home policies. As tech-

nology has advanced, many

companies have become much

more lenient with regard to

employees working from home.

If your company allows you to

work from home, even if its

only once per week, then take

advantage of that offer. This

can provide more time with

your kids, it will likely save you

money on childcare, and you

are certain to appreciate the

opportunity to skip your daily

commute, even if it is only

once a week or a couple of

times per month.

Plan ahead. Looking

ahead is another way to make

juggling a family and a career

easier. Plan meals in advance to

cut down on preparation time

when its your night to cook.

This can involve placing foods

in a slow cooker in the morning

or preparing part of the meal in

advance so its ready to go in

the oven the moment you

arrive home.

Another way to plan

ahead is to look at kids school

schedules and

plan trips

during the

school year

when

school wont

be in session.

A three-day

weekend is a per-

fect opportunity to

plan a getaway to a nearby

locale where the whole family

can relax and reconnect with-

out the pres-

sures of daily

life.

Juggling a

family and

career is not

always easy,

but there are

ways that todays

mothers can raise a

happy family and still have a

successful career.

Tips for women juggling a family and a career


H

ave you ever won-

dered why many of

the most beautiful

plants we see in New Jersey

only last a few weeks out of

the year? Why is it that cer-

tain garden vegetables are

only in season for a specific

part of the year? The reason

is that these plants are

annuals.

Strictly speaking, an

annual plant is one that com-

pletes its growing cycle in the

course of a single growing

season. The plant grows from

a seed, blooms and produces

seed all within one season. In

other words, annuals pack a

lot of living into a short span

of time! Some annual plant

life cycles may occur in as lit-

tle as one month, while some

species last through several

months.

With spring in full

swing, its time to begin

thinking about annual plant-

ing. Take advantage of this

time to grow an edible gar-

den! A large variety of food

plants are either annual

plants or grown in season,

Spring has sprung for

most areas of the coun-

try and the average

homeowners to-do list likely

has its share of outdoor land-

scaping tasks that need to be

tackled. The right tools can

make easier work of outdoor

chores.

A report from the

Associated Landscape Con-

tractors of America titled

Economic Benefits of

Landscape states that land-

scaping can add as much as 14

percent to the resale value of a

building and speed its sale by as

much as 6 weeks. Homeowners

looking to sell their home or

just improve its market value

will want to consider landscap-

ing a viable investment. A

March 2003 article in Smart

Money noted that homeown-

ers can expect to earn back 150

percent or more of their land-

scape investment through the

value it brings to a property.

Whatever the landscap-

ing project, the right tools will

make any task that much easi-

er. There are certain items

every homeowner should have

in his or her gardening arsenal.

Soil cultivator: A multi-

pronged tool that breaks up

clods of soil and grass to pro-

vide easier planting.

Various garden hoes: Hoes

can be used for breaking up

soil, weeding, cultivating,

aerating, and many other

purposes.

Spading fork: Another tool

that loosens soil with straight

tines that dig through dense

soil.

Shovel: A multipurpose

shovel can dig through dirt,

gravel and the like.

Rake: A steel-pronged rake

will till soil and spread out

mulch and other organic mat-

ter in planting beds. A flexible

rake is good for collecting

leaves and thatch.

Edger: Available as manual or

gas powered, an edger gives

planting beds and the edges of

lawns a clean look.

String trimmer: Weeds can

easily be trimmed with a string

trimmer that can work around

bushes and other hard-to-reach

areas.

Gloves: Avoid blisters and

insect bites with durable gloves

that protect the hands.

Lawn mower: To maintain a

healthy lawn it will have to be

trimmed to the correct height.

A manual or powered lawn

mower is the essential land-

scapers tool.

Collection bags/bins: To

properly dispose of organic

matter like leaves and branch-

es, it pays to have recyclable or

reusable bags on hand for

transporting waste.

Hoses: Drip irrigation hoses

can deliver water right to

plants roots where they need it

most. A regular nozzle-pow-

ered hose can be used for

cleaning and misting plants

and surrounding hardscapes.

Compost bin: Black gold is

the ideal landscaping supple-

ment. By creating compost

from discarded food, a home-

owner can generate the prime

fertilizer needed to keep plants

healthy.

Wheelbarrow: Transporting

gravel, rocks, mulch, shrub-

bery, and many other garden

essentials is made easier with

the help of a wheelbarrow or a

garden cart.

Branch pruner: A durable

branch trimmer/pruner can cut

through thick or thin branches

and keep landscape items tidy.

Pruning also helps promote

growth of many flowers and

shrubs.

Overhead pruner: Errant

branches in hard-to-reach

areas can be trimmed with an

overhead pruner with an

extendable arm.

Depending on specific

interests, homeowners can

stock up on trowels, bulb

planters, chain saws and other

items that will get jobs done

around the exterior of the

home.

including virtually all domes-

ticated grains. Corn, wheat,

rice, lettuce, peas, watermel-

on and beans are all examples

of annual food plants.

Additionally, the vast

majority of flowers are also

considered annual. They are

incredibly versatile plants

that are suitable for contain-

ers, window boxes, flower-

beds, and elsewhere. Dont

let the season pass you by

without having a set of beau-

tiful annual flowers to adorn

your home!

watch sporadically. Some may

wonder how reality TV affects

the perceptions of young

women. According to a survey

conducted by the Girl Scout

Research Institute, girls who

routinely view reality TV are

more focused on physicalappearance, and more than

one-third think that a girls

value is based on how she

looks. The study also pointed

out that girls views on reality

show behavior tends to pit girls

against one another to make

the show seem more exciting.

The re-search is not all nega-

tive, however. Some survey

respondents said reality TV

made them feel more empow-ered and that they can achieve

anything in life. Others said

the shows highlighted the

plights of teenagers and young

women, helping young women

realize there are other young

women in situations similar to

their own.

ornamental fountains and

pond supplies. Gro-Rites

landscaping division offers a

vast selection of trees and

evergreens to help residents

build their landscapes.

Theres even a full-service

floral department with on-

staff designers to assist withbridal, corporate events and

special occasions. In an effort

to provide a full-service

experience, upon completion

of a landscape job, Gro-Rite

clients receive a floral

arrangement from the floral

department.

Ken Vande Vrede is

president and son of founders

Dave and Gerda. Providing

the best-possible customerexperience is a key differen-

tiator at Gro-Rite, he said.

Customers repeatedly return

for the level of knowledge

and personal attention our

staff members provide.

What truly sets Gro-

Rite apart from other nurs-

eries is a commitment to

innovation and new technol-

ogy. Gro-Rite has adopted

state-of-the-art hydroponic

technology, which allows

large quantities of lettuces,

herbs and vegetables to grow

in a clean, sustainable, bacte-

ria-free environment. Theyutilize a natural growing

environment for pesticide-

free herbs and vegetables,

and are hoping to meet

USDA organic standards

soon.

Gro-Rites vision is pro-

viding customers with locally

grown, preservative-free

foods and using hydroponic

technology will also allow

them to do that.Hydroponics is a soil-less

method of growing plants

that uses a combination of

mineral nutrient solutions

and water. Contrary to popu-

lar belief, soil is not essential

to the growth of plants, but is

merely a holding area for

necessary mineral nutrients

that, when dissolved in

water, are absorbed by plant

roots.

Through the use of less

water and space to produce

herbs and greens, hydroponic

farming is a 100 percent nat-

ural and sustainable growingmethod that dramatically

reduces our carbon footprint.

Through hydroponic

farming, Gro-Rite will be the

only greenhouse in 2013 that

provides year-round, pick-

your-own locally grown pro-

duce.

For nearly four decades,

the Vande Vrede family has

owned and operated Gro-Rite

Greenhouse and GardenCenter at 30 Hillview Road in

Lincoln Park. Gro-Rite is

opened 9am5pm Monday

through Saturday. For more

grew a little lonely, Jack Benny

was born in 1998 and we added

an addition to our newly

acquired home so I could bring

the office into the house to

continue working with my wife

and life partner every day. Two

years later, Jack wanted a little

brother to play with, and

Sammy showed up to be his lit-tle buddy!

Terry and I continued to

work together every day, help-

ing the community with their

retirement and estate-planning

needs. We are proud that we

have been able to build our

family and family business

simultaneously over these past

29 years. I did the marriage cal-

culation to determine that

based on the comparison towhat Ill call normally mar-

ried couples if you count up

all of the hours we have spent

together everyday, we have

been married about four times

longer than other couples of

the same vintage. 29 years

together, multiplied by four,

equals 116 years. So there you

have it folks, Ive been married

to the sexiest and most remark-

able woman in the world for

116 years! She has let me pur-

sue my goals, dreams and ambi-

tions, and not only stood by myside with constant and never-

ending support, but was an

active participant in all of them

with great expense to her indi-

vidual goals and dreams, as

well. I am convinced that the

greatest force in business is a

husband and wife working

together side-by-side with a

common goal and objective.

They are powerful enough to

overcome a major recession,the worst stock market crashes

in the nations history and the

worst real estate market

decline. Though President

Obama recently stated that we

didnt build our businesses our-

selves, I beg to differ! Not only

did we build it ourselves, but we

built it with American values,

American pride and American

ingenuity.

Im not afraid to say I

love my wife and I would be

here neither financially nor

physically if she were not by myside every day especially

when I underwent heart-bypass

surgery and suffered 10 strokes

and other complications,

resulting in a 43-day hospital

stay.

Yes, there was a two-week

period of time when we were

not together every day. I con-

tracted an infection during my

hospital stay and she, being by

my side for 19 days straight,caught the same infection,

resulting in hospitalization for

the next 14 days in a separate

Question: Why doesone need life insur-ance and when is

best to invest in it?

Answer: Life insurance is a

vehicle that will aid in ensuringthat loved ones left behind in

the event of an untimely death

are able to continue their

financial lives and also takes

care of final expenses for the

dearly departed.

Of all the insurance

products that are offered by

the multitude of insurance

companies in this country, life

insurance is the only product

that is not speculative. Auto,homeowners, motorcycle,

business, flood and some other

types of insurance are all in

place just in case something

happens. Life insurance is the

only one that has a guarantee,

as there is one guarantee from

the day we are born. A whole

life policy is assurance that

expenses and loved ones will

be left financially whole.

As there are also termpolicies that offer more afford-

able premiums, these policies

can be converted to whole life

at a later date, prior to policy

expiration, in case it appears

the owner will out-live a term.

It can be converted without

new medical exams or under-

writing. The whole policy

would simply be rated at the

current rate at the time of

conversion.The best time to invest in

a whole life policy is in your

younger years, simply due to

the minimal risk youthfulness

presents. Term policies are best

for those who arent yet able to

afford whole life premiums,

new homeowners for the term

of the mortgage, and other debt

that may have a 10-year range

to be paid off, like wedding

expenses.The protection for the

legacy you build is but a con-

tact point away. Reach out to
