any employee of the Township.Going into 2015, I pledge, for the sec-

ond year in a row, to deliver a municipal

Field Hockey Clinic. Its easier for them togain confidence, to learn to use the stick, todrop the ball, dive the ball and more ball con-trol. On turf, it makes it easier to learn.

Costanza, who works as a student assis-tance counselor at Morris Knolls HighSchool, approached Mt. Olive Recreation in2013 with her suggestion to start a field hock-ey clinic for younger girls. Supportive of theidea, she got approval in June.

The town was absolutely so supportive,says Costanza, and very happy to offeranother opportunity for a different clinic intown. For a town of our size, there are somany choices.

With Mt. Olive being competitive in field

hockey at the high school level for years, andthe previous loss of sports at MOMS,Costanza says girls could benefit from learn-ing the skills and drills for field hockey at anearlier age so they are ready by the time theyplay at the competitive level.

When we lost the middle school pro-gram, it had an impact, says Costanza, whoformerly coached varsity field hockey andwas an assistant softball coach at MorrisKnolls. Many girls, including her daughter,then joined a field hockey travel program

offered in Byram as their only option at thattime.

I wanted to offer it in our town to gradestwo through five, she says. I have a secondgrader; when you watch an older sister playall those years, you question why arent Iplaying.

Although middle school sports returnedlast year, Costanza thought that offering afield hockey clinic provides an alternativeoption to a fall sport other than soccer.

Lets introduce it; let them learn it to beprepared for middle school, she says.Several players of the MOHS field hockeyteam attended the clinic to play around andteach their skills, says Costanza. It wasreally inspiring.

There has not been a field hockey clinicfor younger kids in the past probably due to

the loss of middle school sports, there wasless interest in the sport and the access to themiddle school goals and fields, Costanzasuggests.

Since field hockey is predominantlycoached by females from clinics to collegelevel in the U.S.- many mothers not havingthe time to organize a clinic is a common rea-son why there has not been a clinic, saysCostanza. Personally, my last year coachingat Morris Knolls was due to having Annalee-after coaching my last season with her in my

baby Bjorn carrier and stroller at the field-even at the Group IV state championship

Ball Gets Rollin...game that year, led me to stop coaching at thehigh school level.

The MO field hockey clinic was open toboth boys and girls, MO residents and non-residents, but only girls signed up this year.

Coaches provided basic introduction andinstruction of the sport. Participants learnedthe basic skills and scrimmaged against eachother.

As a former player of field hockey - whoplayed at the collegiate level at the Universityof Vermont, as well as at MOHS from 1983-1986 when MOHS won the Morris County

Championship - Costanza is a big fan of thesport and the effects it brings to girls who getthe opportunity to learn it and play it.

Costanza, who was just recently includedin the MOHS Athletic Hall of Fame Induction

Class of 2013 says, They got confidence; atremendous amount of learning and truly lov-ing a sport that has added to so many femaleslives.

Costanza plans to offer the clinic againnext fall. For additional information andquestions, email [email protected].

A greater awarenessof food security, thefood watershed, andsimply FOOD is driving the

This day-long program, which runsfrom 9 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.,begins with keynote speak-er, Joseph Simcox. Mr.Simcox is a botanicalexplorer in the mode of 18thcentury adventurers. He hastravelled the continentssearching, not for gold, northe fountain of youth, butfor food. As an ethnob-otanist and food securityspecialist, his work hastaken him to the mostremote regions, document-ing and tasting thousands of little known edibles. Histalk will inspire us to see the

food as the connection

between cultures andencourage us to continue toseek sustainable agriculturalprocesses, said LesleyParness, Superintendent of Horticultural Education.

The program is a collab-orative effort of The MorrisCounty Park Commission,The Friends of TheFrelinghuysen Arboretum,and the RutgersCooperative Extension.Other sessions include,

Preserving Your Harvest,

Crop Rotation, AsianVegetables, Keeping Beesin Community Gardens andAttracting Pollinators.

The importance of community gardens mightseem obvious, but the bene-fits go way beyond just pro-viding fresh, healthy food.Studies have shown thatpeoples lives are improvedthrough the cultivation andenjoyment of plants, thatgardens foster bonds of

Fifth Annual Community Garden Conferencefriendship and support, andthat community gardenersand their children eathealthier diets than non-gar-

dening families, saidCynthia Triolo,Horticultural ProgramSpecialist. Communitygardens reduce our carbonfootprint and create green-space that filters rainwaterand restores oxygen to the

atmosphere thereby reduc-ing water and air pollution.Ask any community gar-dener and they will tell you

that growing ones ownfood is a tremendous sourceof pride and joy, but that theconnection made with othergardeners, and with theearth itself are just as impor-tant, Triolo concluded. Formore information, and to

register for this program,visit arboretumfriends.org.

Morris County Park Commission, is one of the

regions best park systems inthe state of New Jersey, cur-rently protects and main-tains 18,600 acres at 38 dis-tinct sites and a year-round calendar of events and activities.

The Heart of Christmas, a cantata byPepper Choplin, will be presented onDecember 21st at the 10am serviceof the First Presbyterian Church of Stanhope. Twenty-seven singers under thedirection of Bette Van Patten, of Pennsylvania, will bring the work to life.The church is located at 100 Main Street inStanhope. All are welcomed to attend. Afree will offering will be taken.As noted on Choplins site (www.pepper-

choplin.com), The Heart of Christmastells the timeless story that we remembereach year in a creative, profound way--byprobing the hearts of those most directlyinvolved in St. Luke's account of that firstChristmas. This touching construct is com-plemented by Choplin's masterful use of avariety of musical styles.Contemporary music, blues, country, areamong the styles Van Patten said are foundin the work. I love the variation, she said.That variety was what drew her to select it.

The singers have been rehearsing since October in preparation for December's performance of "The Heart of Christmas"

The Heart of Christmas to be Performed at Stanhope Church

Joining the Stanhope churchs chancel choirin the cantata are singers from St. MichaelsCatholic Church. This is not the first timethat they have shared in a music program.Were thrilled, said Van Patten of havingthem join in on this cantata. They have thesoprano voices and are such nice people.Lenape Valley High School junior,Catherine Barry of Stanhope, is soloist,singing the part of Mary. She is not the onlyBarry in the choir. Proudly singing in it

with her is her grandmother, Carol Barry, of Byram.

She and I have done a few duets, and shehas done a few solos in church before. I amthrilled to have the two of us singing togeth-er, said Carol Barry.The youth and young adults in the choir willprovide special music, singing some partsof the work by themselves. Helping to fur-ther the story will be narration. The narra-tors for the canta ta will be Ralph Wallace of Stanhope and Linda McCabe of Succasunna.

O ne day in November, bags were left at homes inPort Morris (Landing) and on Main Street inStanhope with a flier and a simple request: if pos-sible get one or more grocery items listed on the flier, putthe items in the bag and leave the bag by the front door ona certain day. What might seem like a simple request wouldend up meaning so much to area residents in need. Thefood drive was a project spear-headed by the youth of thePort Morris United Methodist Church in Landing, and

joined in by youth from the Stanhope United MethodistChurch in Netcong. It was the latter churchs pantry thatbenefitted from the drive. Approximately 60 bags of foodwere collected. A short thank you note was left at eachhome that donated.

We are so thankful for the Port Morris UnitedMethodist Church youth and our youth for their food drive.The kids were all so eager and I feel this raises awarenessto them and their families that there are many hungry peo-ple in the world and in our own communities. The youthlearned the importance of caring for others, treating othersas themselves. The youth collected boxes and boxes of canned goods, pastas, soup, and other non- perishablefoods that will feed many families during the wintermonths. These families are very thankful for the assis-tance. They humbly come to us for assistance and thanksto food drives such as this, we are able to provide healthynourishment, said Lynn Zaremba, pastor of the StanhopeUnited Methodist Church

The food drive team included 12 youths and four adults

from the Port Morris United Methodist Church and fouryouths and two adults from the Stanhope United MethodistChurch. The project included not only getting out the fliersand bags, but collecting the food, checking the expirationdates, sorting it, boxing it, and taking it to the pantry. TinaBerchak of Stanhope, who co-leads the Port Morris UnitedMethodist youth group with Jennifer Kasilag of Hopatcong, talked to the youth after they were finished.Some were surprised at how often the food pantry is used.Overall, they were happy to have done something to helpothers.

This event is so important because it teaches each oneof us that you learn how to be a Christian by practicingyour faith. The youth group gets particularly excited aboutthis project because they know they are directly helpingsomeone in our community that cannot afford food and forthat I am very proud of all of them for working togetherand seeing it to fruition, said Berchak.

Zaremba noted that the Stanhope United MethodistChurch pantry can always use donations of non- perishablefood items. These include, but are not limited to, cannedvegetables, meats, soups, stews, beans and fruit; cereal andoatmeal, pasta and sauce, rice, boxed potato mix, peanutbutter and jelly, mac 'n cheese, ramen noodles, pancakemix and syrup.

She shared, We are very thankful to our community forall their support with donations and fundraisers that pro-vide food for those in need.

M ore than 80 pounds have been shed by winnersof the Mt. Olive Exercise Biggest LosersContest since the annual contest began in 2010.But weight and inches lost is just an added bonus to

the overall result that many participants tend to gain astronger commitment, motivation to exercise and ahealthier lifestyle once they join the contest. The SixthAnnual Mt. Olive Exercise Biggest Losers Contest is setto begin Sat., Jan. 3 and run for 16 weeks until April 25.

The program allows ladies to challenge themselveswith goals, whether they involve losing pounds and inch-es, toning their bodies, strengthening their heart or start-ing a new path to healthier eating and regular exercise.

The contest continues to inspire people and give thema reason to commit to being healthy, says Laura Hars,organizer of the MO Exercise Biggest Losers Contest.New Years is always the time for resolutions and lifechanges so this time of year is really the right time tolaunch this type of contest. Losing weight and exercisingregularly is very difficult so being part of a group reallyhelps to motivate people they like to know they are notalone and encourage each other.

Each year brings new people with new commitmentsand I never tire of helping people to achieve their desireto healthy, thinner and toned, continues Hars, headinstructor of the MO Exercise program through Mt. OliveRecreation. Exercise is proven to prolong a persons lifeand being overweight is a contributing factor to manydebilitating health issues (high blood pressure, heart con-

ditions, diabetes, high cholesterol, ect.)To participate, contestants must have A desire to lose

weight with a safe diet and a regular exercise routine,says Hars. I am asking that participants attend at leasttwo classes a week (ideally four), keep a food journal andweigh in no less than 2 times a month.

Contestants are asked to sign up for the Mt. OliveExercise program for four months in order to participatein the 16-week MO Exercise Biggest Loser Contest. Thefirst day to register and take a class is Sat., Jan. 3, withregistration in person or on-line, and the official weigh in.Weigh-ins will be held weekly on Saturday morningsafter class or Tuesdayevenings after class, and measure-ments will be taken once a month.

Participants will attend hourly exercise classes taughtby four different instructors, seven days a week, featuringvarious workouts that include step aerobics, Zumba, car-dio blast, butts and guts, pilates, boot camp, kickbox, sta-bility ball, toning with weights and more. Contestantswill weigh in weekly, and measurements will be takenmonthly, with results held confidentially by Hars.

To motivate participants to keep competing for the full16 weeks, Hars has invited a nutritionist to attend month-ly diet meetings for January, February, March and April.

Christine Meissner, a certified nutrition support dieti-tian who works as a Clinical Nutrition Manager atHackettstown Regional Medical Center, in Hackettstown,plans to help out the big losers program this year by mak-ing a few presentations to the group on healthy eating, the

importance of maintaining a food journal and other perti-

nent topics for the support of proper weight management.Meissner is offering her expertise as a free service to fos-ter community outreach and encourage healthy living.

To assist participants even more, Hars is also request-ing that participants who have a smart phone use the freeMyFitnessPal app.

MyFitnessPal.com is a smartphone app, 100 percentfree, that tracks what you eat with just a few clicks fromanywhere with an internet connection - at home or atwork, says Hars.

Study after study has confirmed the benefits of keep-ing track of the food you eat and the activity you do. Itssimple - the more consistently you track your food intake,the more likely you are to lose weight. That's why everysuccessful weight management program suggests that youkeep a food diary and/or an activity log. It has a search-able food database of over one million items. You cancreate your own personal food database by adding yourown foods and recipes at any time. There is also an exer-cise database that calculates the calories burned for everyexercise imaginable.

While the ultimate goal is to lose weight, Hars simplywants to spread her passion for fitness and good health.

For most, (but not all), the people who either won orparticipated in the contest have made a commitment totheir health, explains Hars. They exercise on a regularbasis and are careful about their diet. I have had a fewfolks who lost weight during the contest and then eitherquit the program or stopped dieting and have gained the

weight back. This does happen life gets in the way, peo-ple lose interest. I had one woman participate in the con-test a few years ago; she was not committed at that time,left the program for a year and returned about ninemonths ago. She has lost almost 40 pounds and nowattends a minimum of four classes a week. So, sometimesthe commitment to diet and exercise takes time to culti-vate.

MO Big Losers Contest...

W hen Luisa Salazar, of Randolph, a communica-tion major at County College of Morris (CCM),envisioned a college internship she picturedworking at an advertising agency or radio station. Whatshe found instead was an internship with the New JerseyAIDS Services (NJAS) that turned into an unexpectedopportunity for personal growth.

Luisa Salazar

Internship Expands CCM Students View of the World Salazar Finds a Pathway of Compassion

I was the only communication major there, saysSalazar. That meant that, with the help of supervisors, shehad to establish what communication tasks would best

benefit the organization, which provides HIV/AIDS sup-port services, housing and education.I did a lot of revamping of their website, she says. It

hadnt been touched in several years. I updated it andmade it more aesthetically appealing. She also supportedevent activities, making flyers for World AIDS Day andcoordinating donations of food from local restaurants.

HIV and AIDS are very stigmatized in our society,Salazar reflects, Before interning for NJAS, I didntknow much about it. It was a completely new environmentto me. It was rewarding being there every Thursday andFriday, spending time with the clients and the social work-ers at The Eric Johnson House in Morristown. The EricJohnson House is a residential house for homeless menand women with HIV and AIDS that helps them get backon their feet.

The residents live in the house and we have an officespace on the first floor, explains Salazar. The otherinterns and I got to spend a lot of time with the residents.Theyre just amazing people. They talk about their life les-sons and try to pass them on to you.

The internship taught her more than communicationskills. You can never give back too much. Its so impor-tant because there are so many people out there who needhelp and assistance, and any sort of aid is always wel-comed and appreciated.

When the three-month internship ended, Salazar foundshe had grown quite attached to the people and compas-sionate environment. It transformed her world view. Ialways wanted to do entertainment news. Now I want toinvolve myself with more hard-hitting news that willaffect people, she says. Ive grown so much. I saw howhard the social workers work every daytheir passion fortheir clients. I want that type of passion for what I do inlife. I absorbed that from them.

The countdown is on calling all Jerseyhigh school teens to compete in the2015 New Jersey Shout Down DrugsMusic Competition.

In its 11th year, the NJ Shout Down DrugsCompetition is accepting applications untiltheMon., Jan. 12, entry deadline. Sponsoredby The Partnership for a Drug-Free NewJersey (PDFNJ), the contest challenges stu-dents to create music and lyrics that delivermessages to prevent substance abuse of drugs and alcohol.

Although contestants can be as far southas Cape May and northeast as Jersey City, themessage is far reaching, more so than everbefore, with even greater advances in tech-nology, the internet, world-wide web and somany more social media outlets.

When we do online voting in the prelim-inary and finals, we do get votes throughoutthe country and the world, says AngeloValente, executive director of the PDFNJ.During last years competition, 100,000votes were casted last year in more than 60countries in all of the continents around theglobe.

The messages shared in the songs createdby these NJ teens are reaching people aroundthe world helping to spread the messages

about substance abuse prevention, he says.The contest has had an impact in resi-

dents around the world, says Valente.Thats a new component that started threeyears ago and has expanded even more withadditional social media outlets. Several thou-sand votes have come from England,Germany and Japan. With social media andtechnology it has spread. Through theirsocial networking circles it gets to expand.

Created in 2005, NJ Shout Down Drugsinvites high school students to create originalmusic and lyrics with powerful substanceabuse prevention messages. Types of musiccan be from any genre such as rap, rhythm,blues, jazz, ballads, rock-and-roll and even ACappella, which was last years winner.

County finalists are then chosen by peer judges to perform their original songs at theAnnual Statewide Prevention Concert, whichis set to be held Fri., April 17, 2015, at theNew Jersey Performing Arts Center inNewark.

First, second and third place winners arechosen by a panel of judges that night toreceive music contracts worth $5,000,$3,000 and $2,000 to perform their winningsongs at different events throughout the stateduring the year. The public is invited to votefor their favorite songs through the contests

website by participating in two phases of online voting. Since 2010, when the onlinevoting began, hundreds of thousands of voteshave been casted.

During the first level of the contest, about40 to 60 submissions are received from about75 to 150 students throughout NJ.Submissions can be from individual studentsor groups of students as large as six studentsin a group.

Judges which are made up of officialsfrom law enforcement, prevention groups,the community, media and even teen preven-tion leaders- review the submissions andthen select one group from each county,resulting in 21 county winners, as well assome wildcard groups, to perform in theApril 17 concert. Votes are also submittedthrough online voting.

Entries for the competition can bereceived either online or by a CD. Videos arenot accepted, only music and lyrics. To com-pete, participants must be high school stu-dents; NJ residents; in good standing in theirschool district; submit a song up to threeminutes long with original music and lyrics.Groups must be six members or less and stu-dents do not have to be from the same schooldistrict to participate.

Many participants usually sign up right

after the winter holiday break as many usethat period to perfect their song and message,says Valente.

Its a program that a student has to take alot of initiative and responsibility for, saysValente, from filling out application, to creat-ing original music and lyrics, meeting dead-lines, and having the confidence to performin a concert.

All submissions must send a peer mes-sage about how important it is to be drug-free, says Valente. Some talk about experi-ences in their lyrics; others may mention theoptions and the different paths studentschoose to take.

Drugs and alcohol affect teens and candestroy their lives, says Valente. Messagesmust focus on how important it is to remaindrug free.

Judges consider the message first andforemost, when picking the winners, saysValente. Judges are looking at the messagebeing delivered. They are also looking fororiginal music as well as the talent and deliv-ery of that music. Its not as much a talentcompetition, but more of a message deliv-ered by music.

The message is the most important partof this competition, Valente stresses. We

With the online voting, the messages fordrug prevention act as a springboard reach-ing more and more listeners. As an addedbonus, at the end of each entry, voters listento a prevention message from The PDFNJ.

Before anyone votes, young people getto see this message, says Valente, which is a30 second public service announcement,which focuses on substance abuse preven-tion.

Five County College of Morris (CCM)graphic design students JacoboAristizabal, of Columbia; Steven

Greene, of Dover; Christopher Hamfeldt, of Wharton; Darius Osorio, of Budd Lake; andPaul Sanford, of Parsippany recently wonBest Presentation at the 19th Annual ArtDirectors Club of New Jersey Design DerbyCompetition.

The Design Derby is a yearly competitionthat challenges art students to develop on-the-spot presentations to pitch to a client.Students are split into teams and have threehours to generate hand-drawn concepts andsuccessfully present their ideas. The competi-tion stresses creativity over technique, there-fore, the use of computers is prohibited. Thisyears Design Derby was held on November1.

The Best Presentation categoryacknowledges exceptional public speakingskills as well as design.

The ability to quickly and effectivelycommunicate a concept to a client is animportant lesson to take away from theDesign Derby, said Aristizabal, a graphicdesign major at CCM.

Professor Stephen H. Longo, special proj-

ect manager for the Graphic Design programat CCM and overseer of the Design Derbysince its start in 1995, was elated by his stu-dents victory.

My hat is off to these young men, saidLongo. This winning team was comprised of what you would technically call freshmen, sofor them to beat out the four-year colleges anduniversities at the level that they are at is quiteremarkable.

This year, students from eight other NewJersey colleges (Fairleigh Dickinson, Kean,Montclair, New Jersey City University,Ramapo, Rutgers, Seton Hall and SussexCounty Community College) gathered atFairleigh Dickinsons Florham Park campusand were asked to create a poster and t-shirtdesign promoting a 5K race fundraiser forMarket Street Mission, a nonprofit organiza-tion devoted to assisting the homeless of northern New Jersey.

The five winners walked away with hon-orary student memberships to the ArtDirectors Club of New Jersey, a glass trophyand concepts to add to their portfolios.

CCMs Graphic Design program isstrong enough that it allows us to be capableof competing against the four-year colleges,

CCM Graphic Design Students Win Best Presentationat the New Jersey Design Derby

said Longo. I hold it to the professors whoare teaching them and the students them-selves.

Other faculty advisors present fromCCMs Graphic Design department wereProfessor Kathleen McNeil and ProfessorWilliam Yermal.

I felt we were very well prepared by our

professors, said Hamfeldt, a graphic designmajor at CCM. Considering how muchexperience the professors have here at CCM,they could easily teach at big universities, yetthey choose to teach here at CCM. Thatshows how much they really care and whythe Graphic Design program here is consid-ered among the best in the state.

According to the Journal of ClinicalPsychology, 45 percent of Americansmake New Years resolutions eachyear, and weight-related resolutions top thelist. Unfortunately, only about 8 percentachieve any type of resolution, weight-relatedor not.If youve made (and then broken) the sameold weight- or health-oriented resolutionseach January, youre not alone. It might betime to focus on research-proven approachesto get healthier that actually work withoutgimmicks, diets that eliminate foods, or buy-ing strange foods and equipment.Start Well: Eat Breakfast

Start the day right, and it really can makethings go better all day. Research has repeat-edly shown that people who eat breakfast tendto take in more nutrients (calcium, iron, pro-tein and fiber), are more alert and can concen-trate better, and may even have better successwith weight management.

To get yourself off to a strong start, thinkabout combining protein, carbohydrates andlow-fat dairy. Some possibilities: whole graincereal and a high protein yogurt, an Englishmuffin with peanut butter, or an egg sandwichwith fruit and yogurt.Eat Rough(age): Make Fiber a Priority

Fiber, found in whole grain wheat, barley,corn and oats, as well as in fruits, vegetablesand beans, helps keep things moving easilythrough the digestive tract. Remember thatgrain fiber has different nutritional benefitsthan fruits and vegetables, so you need both.

Fiber is also filling, providing volume withfew calories because our bodies dont have theenzymes to break it down. But fiber can bedigested and used for fuel by the 10 trillionbacteria that live in the colon and preventnumerous health conditions.Get Your Facts Straight: If It Sounds TooGood to be True...

Losing 10 pounds in two weeks only to

regain it in eight makes no sense. Whetheryouve tried to go gluten-free, low carb oravoid all white foods, chances are quite highthat your efforts didnt result in long lastingeffects. What does work? A balanced eatingpattern and an active lifestyle.

There is no one perfect diet, and anyonewho says otherwise is typically selling a bookor products promising weight loss. Registereddietitian nutritionists can be trusted to providecredible, evidence-based information that canbe tailored to your lifestyle and taste prefer-ences. In addition, eating patterns such asthose recommended by the MediterraneanDiet, the DASH Diet (Dietary Approaches toStop Hypertension) and MyPlate can provideguidance on the types of foods to include inyour meals.Move It: Walk, Dance or Ride Your Way toHealth

Unless you use it often (23 times perweek or more), skip the gym membership.Walk outside, walk the dog, dance in yourkitchen, work in the garden or ride your biketo run errands. And, if possible, do it every daywith friends for fun, and make it part of yourregular lifestyle.Make It Stick: Schedule and Track YourProgress

Make a schedule of your health goals, andkeep track of progress by writing in a food andactivity journal or calendar. Write thingsdown; it makes them more likely to happen.Note things like how you feel before and aftermeals and exercise. You may be surprised bywhat you learn.How to Spot a Fad Diet in 30 Seconds orLess

Fad diets come and go and return again.Here are some obvious clues that a diet is a fadrather than a realistic approach for becominghealthy.1. Sounds too good or easy to be true2. Promises rapid weight loss (510 pounds aweek) or miracle cures

Resolve to Get Healthier 3. Allows only certain foods or food groups(cutting out others)4. Promotes a product, special herb, vitamin orother compound5. Can only be followed temporarily but isnot supervised by a doctor6. Hard to imagine or difficult to follow thediet forever7. Doesnt recommend a form of exercise orsays that its unnecessary8. Warns that one food or food group willmake you seriously ill or worse9. Makes recommendations based on pseudo-science not endorsed by credible organiza-tions or peer reviewed by other scientists10. Cites research that is preliminary, based onanimals, has very few subjects, or uses poormethodology

The bottom line: Eat when you are hungry,strive for moderation and move more to feelgood.Tips to Trim Mindless CaloriesEat mindfully

Put all of your attention on the food andnowhere else.

Eat for hungerMake sure you are eating because you are

hungry and not for other reasons.Eat slowly

Youll stop eating sooner and register thatyouve had enough.Eat without guilt

Its really the value, says Schmidt. Thevalue is number one; you are seeing these

jazz, blues, classical, childrens performancesand theater. You have all these different art

Y ou dont have to be an accom-plished chef to host a memorableholiday gathering. The key is tokeep it simple, get a little creative and planahead. Hosting a fun holiday party withfamily and friends should not mean endlesshours in the kitchen and shopping for exot-ic ingredients. Let the festive spirit set thestage for the party with these tips in mind:

Create Flavor Without the Fuss Cut

your ingredient list by swapping out regularground beef with Johnsonvilles ItalianSausage. Johnsonville sausage is made withpremium cuts of meat and already features ablend of spices for every appetite, whetherspicy, sweet or mild. Swapping out beef forItalian sausage will add the perfect amountof flavor for any beef dish, while savingtime in the kitchen since the meat is alreadyblended with spices.

Mix and Match Dont feel pressuredto serve a formal sit-down meal. Its more

fun to serve a variety of finger foods, smallplates and quick nibbles, which also encour-

ages your guests to mix and mingle. Small Touches Make a Big Impact

Make sure your spread is share-worthy byusing serving dishes in a variety of colors,heights and textures. Placing the dishes outon a serve-yourself noshing table surround-ed by vintage holiday ornaments and freshgarland will turn your table into an Insta-worthy event.

Get Organized To save time and

cleanup the day of the party, prepare dishessuch as cookies and other baked goodies thenight before. Also, look for recipes with sixor fewer ingredients to keep preparation to aminimum. These simple dishes will also bequick to replenish if supplies run out mid-party.

ber to have a ball.

Thomas Edison Like Ebenezer Scrooge Worked on Christmas Day

8/10/2019 221652_1418834362Mt Olive Dec 2014.pdf

34/48

by Michele Guttenberger

In his twenties Thomas Edison worked atthe News Reporting TelegraphCompany in Newark. During this peri-

od of his life he was a very busy experimen-tal research engineer for the telegraph com-pany. He did not have much time forromance. However, fate had helped himfind his new bride. She was a young schoolgirl named Mary Stillwater who was not yet16. By chance she had ducked into the tele-graph company to avoid a heavy rainstormon her walk back home. That is whenThomas Edison found love at first sight. Heescorted her back home that day and for fivemonths there was a traditional courtship.Her quoted thoughts of their first encounterwere, I thought he had very handsomeeyes, yet he was so dirty, all covered withmachine oil. On Christmas Day 1871twenty four year old Thomas Alva Edisonmarried sixteen year old Mary Stillwater.When the wedding ceremony was over hereturned to work on his stock ticker projectbefore the Christmas Day had ended leavinghis bride to wait for him on their first wed-ding night.

Thomas Edisons marriage continued as

it had started - the ever absent working fam-ily man. He was always in the laboratoryand hardly ever at home. Thomas Edisonhad three children with Mary Stillwater.When they reached their 13th year of mar-riage, it was abruptly ended not by divorcebut, by Marys untimely death at the age of 29. In the last few years of Mary Edisons slife, she suffered chronic pain and reliedheavily on morphine to kill the pain and itwas this morphine addiction that tragicallytook her life.

In the early 1880s Thomas Edison wasnow the famous inventor and his latest proj-ect (two years before his wifes death) was

bringing electric lighting to NYC and hespent his time not in his laboratory close tohome in Menlo Park, NJ but, at his EdisonElectric Light Companys location inManhattan.

When the first electric lighted Christmastree was lit in 1882 this spectacle did nottake place in the Edison family home inMenlo Park but in Manhattan. The addresswas 139 East Thirty-Sixth-Street, the fami-ly home of Mr. E. H. Johnson. He was thevice president of Edisons light company

and it was his familys Christmas tree that

made history. The Johnson family wouldget encore newspaper coverage of this mod-ern day Christmas marvel in 1884 by TheNew York Times in the society page withfull technical details. The Christmas of 1884 found Thomas Edison a new widowerwith three children. That same year healmost lost his home in Menlo Park from alawsuit and court judgments against himthat led to a sheriffs sale. With no cash insavings, Edison had to rely on a friend toplace a pre-emptive bid to save his home.

Years later Edison learned from his sor-rowful regrets of Christmases past.Although he still worked long hours in his

laboratory in West Orange, NJ, he reservedChristmas Day with his second wife MinaEdison. Together they had a festive anddecorated Christmas home for their threeyoung children. They married on February24, 1886. He was 39 and she was 20 yearsold. He gave her an outstanding weddinggift - a beautiful Jersey countryside estatecalled Glenmont nestled in the LlewellynPark section of West Orange. Glenmont isa 29-room Queen Anne-style home only onemile from Edisons labs and Thomas Edison

made sure he spent many Christmases with

his family at Glenmont. It is also no smallwonder why Edison produced CharlesDickens A Christmas Carol in his moviestudio in 1910. It was a Holiday message

that he learned not to forget.The Holidays at Glenmont guided

tours will be offered on Fridays, Saturdaysand Sundays between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00p.m. through January 4, 2015. Tickets mustbe purchased at the Laboratory ComplexVisitor Center on the day of your visit. TheThomas Alva Edison Museum- NPS - OpenWednesday through Sunday.

birth of Dionysus.Ancient Egyptians used a baby as a sym-
