    and creates the projects with the actors and their ideas in

    mind. Through improvisation they create the script. Once

    the script is written and rehearsed, they ready to shoot. The

    films were directed by professional film director, Kyle

    Schickner.

    Shane and Austin Cummis, a pair of 12 year old twin

    boys, both needed haircuts. But these young,

    thoughtful, residents of Roxbury didnt just want a

    plain old ordinary haircut; they wanted to make it into

    something more. They offered to shave their heads inexchange for donations to Eleventh Hour Rescue, a local

    animal rescue organization where the Cummis family

    recently adopted the newest addition to their family, a

    young puppy named Zoey. Their parents, Princy and

    Joshua, were very supportive of their sons initiative. So

    much so that Dad actually wielded the scissors and shaver

    and performed the extreme haircut on them both.

    When asked why they chose to do a fund raiser, their

    response simply was Its a good thing to do. The boys

    are both active in Boy Scout Troop 54 in Succasunna, NJ as

    well as active on the local sports scene. Both are 6th

    graders at the Canfield Ave School in Mine Hill, NJ. They

    adopted Zoey recently to keep their other 3 year-old adopt-

    ed dog, Randi, company around the house. Princy Cummis

    says the boys along with their sister decided to use money

    they received during the past holiday season to adopt a dog

    from a local shelter.

    Their donation drive yielded an amazing total amount of

    $305, an amount that surpassed their initial expectations by

    far. During the donation presentation to Eleventh Hour

    Rescue at the Enhanced Adoption Center in the Mt Olive

    PetSmart, the boys met one of the many available dogs,

    Clyde. He is a young, Jack Russell mix who needs to have

    abdominal surgery. Once the boys heard that Clyde needed

    medical attention, they insisted that their donation godirectly to help offset his vet expenses. This generous gift

    Cummis Twins Shave Their Heads for Donationswill be used for that purpose.

    Additional donations to help dogs and cats like Clyde

    that need medical attention under the care of Eleventh Hour

    Rescue can be mailed to: Eleventh Hour Rescue, Attn: Vet

    Bills, PO Box 218, Rockaway, NJ 07866. Donationsreceived will be used to help all of our dogs and cats in

    need.

    Morris County Freeholder

    Director Tom

    Mastrangelo of

    Montville plans to continue his

    agenda to improve the quality oflife in Morris County if reelected

    to the freeholder board.

    Finishing up his first three-year

    term on the Morris County Board

    of Chosen Freeholders, incumbent

    Mastrangelo is running on the

    Republican ticket in the June 4

    primary election. His greatest

    achievements as freeholder have

    been keeping his promises to

    reduce spending and taxes without

    cutting services.This is the first year in 15 years

    that the Morris County budget

    delivers a zero percent tax

    increase, with taxpayers seeing a

    1.7 percent reduction in property

    taxes at the county level.

    Mastrangelo has kept his promises

    but says more work needs to be

    done.

    Ive kept my promises, says

    Mastrangelo. Ive done exactly

    what Ive ran on and what I prom-ised to do. I kept my promises,

    promises made and promises

    kept.

    If reelected to a second term,

    Mastrangelo says he plans to

    continue my agenda to reduce

    taxes, reduce spending andimprove the quality of life in

    Morris County; to continue on the

    agenda on what I ran on the first

    time. But theres more work to

    do, he says.

    While reducing taxes and

    spending, Mastrangelo says we

    did not reduce the services to

    Morris County. He wants to con-

    tinue on that platform.

    The Morris County Board of

    Chosen Freeholders voted unani-mously in March to adopt a $311

    million county spending plan for

    2013.

    The 2013 county budget main-

    tains all services in the county,

    while reducing spending by $2.3

    million and yielding a $6.2 million

    reduction in expensesfrom

    $317.3 million in 2012 to $311.1

    million, according to reports.

    Mastrangelo mentions reduc-

    tions in health care costs, pensionsand debt obligations as methods of

    cutting the budget. He also volun-

    tarily took a 20 percent reduction

    in his salary as a freeholder.

    Borrowing is down $7.7 mil-

    lion from last year, according to

    Mastrangelo, and there are 63fewer county employees than

    there were in 2012.

    Because of conservative fiscal

    management here at the county

    level and Gov. Christies property

    tax reforms, Mastrangelo said,

    we were able to realize more than

    $4 million in savings and salaries

    and pension and health care

    costs, as reported in the Morris

    County Daily Record.

    I earned their vote, saysMastrangelo, a member of the

    boards budget subcommittee.

    Ive kept my promises. Ive

    delivered on what I said but

    theres more work to be done. I

    want to continue at ways to reduce

    taxes and reduce spending.

    Mastrangelos goal is to bring

    in more economic development

    to keep younger people and all

    people here while reducing taxing

    and spending. He plans to look atinitiatives in bringing in more jobs

    and more companies to Morris

    County, he says.

    The county recently hired a

    Chief Technology Officer to look

    into ways to reengineer our tech-

    nology how the county providesservices to the taxpayers. An idea

    is to create a shared service cloud

    with the municipalities, he says.

    Mastrangelo was also instru-

    mental in the boards redesigned

    website to make government

    more accessible so taxpayers can

    see budget resolutions. The

    whole website is different than it

    was a year ago, he says. There is

    more transparency into the web-

    site that anyone can access andview, with plans for even greater

    transparency.

    When Mastrangelo ran in 2010,

    he says county taxes were raised

    $8 million. Since he has been in

    office, that number has gone from

    $4 million in 2011, to $3.8 million

    in 2012, to a zero percent increase

    in 2013. After cutting open space,

    the freeholder board was able to

    reduce county property taxes by

    1.7 percent, he says.A businessman who never ran

    for public office, Mastrangelo

    thought it was his time to step in.

    I was a businessman corporate

    entrepreneur and decided to run

    for public office, says

    Mastrangelo. At that time I felt

    that more could be done; what was

    going on nationally with our econ-

    omy, what was going on with our

    state. I felt New Jersey was

    becoming an expensive place.

    trol government spending, Mastrangelo says he felt secure

    that he could make a difference.

    It was time for me to give back by doing public service

    and do something better for the taxpayers in Morris

    County, he says. I wanted to give back to Morris Countyand help the state of NJ.

    Serving on the freeholder board is a position

    Mastrangelo has greatly enjoyed and hopes to continue.

    I enjoy helping the people and accomplishing my agen-

    da and keeping my promises, he says. We have some

    good social services in Morris County. We are reducing

    taxes and making people feel better. When people acknowl-

    edge you for that and they say thank you for contributing

    your time to help, thats gratifying in itself.

    A lifelong NJ resident who has been living in Morris

    County for the past 28 years, Mastrangelo was elected to

    serve on the seven person Board of Chosen Freeholders inNov. 2010, and was elected by his peers to serve as the

    boards director in 2013.

    As the director, which is usually a two-year position,

    Mastrangelo maintains liaison positions, manages the board

    and its communications, serves as the spokesperson of the

    board and runs public meetings.

    I help create the agenda for the meetings and I help to

    set the policy, he says.

    Currently, Mastrangelo is the liaison to the Department

    of Information Services, which includes the Information

    Technology Division and the Morris County Library; liai-

    son to the Morris County Park Commission; the Board ofSchool Estimate for the County College of Morris and the

    Morris County School of Technology; Law and Public

    Safety; and the Morris County Improvement Authority. He

    also serves on the Capital Review and Budget committees.

    Professionally, Mastrangelo has 20 years of executive

    sales and leadership management experience in the comput-

    er technology industry. He holds a bachelor's degree from

    Seton Hall University, a masters degree from Fairleigh

    Dickinson University; and a Juris Doctor of Law from

    Seton Hall University School of Law.

    Mastrangelo and his wife, Debbie, have three children,

    Christopher, Michael and Brittney. Other involvements

    include the Sons of Italy, the Republican Club in Montville,

    and the Republican Committee in Montville.

    I love living in Morris County, says Mastrangelo. Its

    a great place to work and live. I will work hard and contin-

    ue to decrease taxes and spending and continue to make this

    a great place to live, work and raise a family.

    expected along with many supporters of the MHAMC.

    With the 60th year anniversary, we needed a bigger

    MHAMC. Food for Thought is a wonderful, fun night with

    splendid food and wonderful people, and provides support

    for people during challenging economic times.

    This year, more than 20 restaurants from different genres

    and five dessert/wine places will be serving their fine cui-

    sine and drink.

    Its a benefit for restaurants, says Schwarcz, because it

    allows customers to try different genres of food.

    Guests will sample food from each of the participating

    restaurant vendors which includes, Blackthorn Restaurantand Pub, Tiffanys Restaurant, Patsys Trattoria, Coney

    Island Catering, LaCucina, Thirsty Turtle and more!

    Beverages to be provided by Best Cellars of A&P.

    Many of the areas finest restaurants will offer a taste

    of their delicious cuisine. At the same time, all funds raised

    at Food for Thought go to support the work of an importantcharity.

    The MHAMC is a 501(c) 3 non-profit organization pro-

    viding support and services along with education and self-

    help resources for those with mental illness in Morris

    County.

    We are advocates for people who dont have a voice in

    the system, says Schwarcz. We are their voice.

    In 2012. The MHAMC served 3,722 Morris County res-

    idents with mental health issues, whether it was education,

    support and advocacy, he says.

    Food for Thought activities include a silent auction andtricky tray raffle featuring restaurant gift certificates, spa

    packages, and shopping spree opportunities. Food for

    whether it has been sponsoring the homeless, community

    By Millene Michel

    Your three year old does a twirl in

    front of the T.V. one day and your

    first thought is I should sign her

    up for dance classes. Most parents withlittle ones dont think about whether their

    child will be a recreational dancer, compet-

    itive or even a professional dancer. Signing

    up for a dance class is more complicated

    than most parents realize. Usually dancers

    stay at the same studio most of their aca-

    demic career. When searching for a dance

    class for your three year old, take into con-

    sideration the long term of the training.

    Does the school offer a wide variety of

    classes and different levels? Do the teach-

    ers inspire all the different levels? Are theteachers qualified with years of experience,

    certification and training? Are there oppor-

    tunities for both the recreational dancer and

    the serious dancer? Many children dance

    for the pure joy of dancing. They may not

    like to be challenged too much or they may

    live for a challenging class. Usually, chil-

    dren show these tendencies at a young age,

    about 6-8. The studio you choose should be

    able to recognize the differences andhave

    something to offer both types of dancers.

    These are a few things you should lookfor when signing you child up for dance. A

    great pre school dance program, preferably

    one that offers a variety of dance styles so

    your dancer can experience the different

    types of dance. As dancers become older,

    the dance subjects should be available sepa-rately as well. Not all children like every

    form of dance. There should be opportuni-

    ties for the serious dancer. Does the school

    have a competition team or performance

    group with experienced teachers or coaches

    and classes to help the dancer be a success-

    ful performer. Choose a school with a long

    standing reputation and advanced level

    teachers. Eventually, your little one will be

    at an advanced level. Can the school or pro-

    gram get your child there? The studio

    should offer Master classes or outside danceexperiences. This is especially important to

    the serious dancer. They need to see what is

    outside the studio walls, if they wish to

    strive to be their best. Recreational dancers

    should have opportunities to shine. Like

    performing in a production or winning an

    award for their achievements at the studio.

    Every child is unique and deserves to be

    inspired. Some dancers choose to be

    pushed and others just have a joy in the

    movement. When searching for that first

    dance class, make sure to check out all thestudio has to offer. Children grow up quick-

    By Michele Guttenberger

    Many think that Thomas Edison

    was the inventor of the light bulb.

    He was not. The first electric

    light was invented in 1809 by Humphry

    Davy an English chemist. Davy connected

    two wires to a battery to illuminate a char-

    coal strip. The strip glowed from the two

    charged wires at each end. Hence, the first

    arc light was born.

    Davy had sensible reasons for finding a

    flameless light. His thoughts were to dis-

    cover a practical safety light for miners.

    Many mining explosions were caused by

    firedamp (flammable gas) or methane

    which often ignited from the open flames of

    the miners lamp. Humphry Davy would

    invent a safer miners light in 1815.

    The problem with the first electric light

    was that it was impractical for regular home

    and office use. The filament in the electric

    light was short lived making oil lanterns or

    gas lamps the preferred lighting method.

    By the 1870s the electric light was start-

    ing to make advancements and evolved into

    something that looked promising for con-

    sumer use. Henry Woodward and Matthew

    Evans had perfected the design of the elec-

    tric bulb in 1875. Thomas Edison bought

    the patent to this design and invented a car-

    bon filament that burned for forty hours in

    an oxygenless bulb. By 1880, Edisons use

    of bamboo filament for his incandescent

    bulb increased the illumination life to 1200

    hours. Thus, Edison made the light bulb a

    practical invention.

    As strong as Edisons passion was to

    develop a better light bulb, so was his deter-

    mination to see his vision of average

    American towns and cities wired to central

    power stations. To sum up Edisons vision

    in his own words "We will make electricity

    so cheap that only the rich will burn can-

    dles.

    Edison never expected bringing electric-

    ity to an American town would be faced

    with fierce opposition. In 1882 the town of

    Brockton, Massachusetts became theworld's first standardized central power sys-

    tem. It was conceived months before

    Edisons plans for New York City. Edison

    Electric Illuminating Company electrified

    the theater, fire station, shoe factory, high

    school and a residential home. His proudest

    achievement was the electrical automation

    of the Brockton firehouse. But, this debut

    in modern technology for an American town

    got a hostile and slanderous reception.

    Edison did not count on regional bureau-

    crats determined to throw a monkey wrench

    in the path of better living. Edison faced the

    red tape of occupancy like permits. He had

    to battle a coalition of insurance lobbyists

    with intentions to sway state officials to ter-

    minate his automated system on the grounds

    of safety issues. The State Bureau of

    Insurance Companies favored gas compa-

    nies and stated that it would continue to

    view gas as the only safe method of illumi-

    nation. The Bureau also demanded express

    written permission on all future insurance

    policies regarding the use of Edison-gener-

    ated electricity in Brockton buildings or else

    their fire insurance would be invalidated.

    Edison was ordered to cease this technolo-

    gy.

    Edison eventually won his battle over the

    bureaucrats and electricity became the prac-tical power for the home. He won his battle

    by convincing the Lady of the House the

    benefits of electric power. His power station

    in Pearl Street, New York got a welcomed

    reception from the city officials. He learned

    his lessons at Brockton and went to battle

    on marketing his electric lights with adver-

    tisements stating his electric lights were

    pure, steady, clean, cool, sanitary, safe.

    Edison was an inventor of taking extraordi-

    nary things and making them practical.

    Farm. Carpooling is recommended.

    Here are a few interesting facts about the

    history of the Hudson Farm Club:

    Annual Hudson Farm Spring Charity HikeIn 1904, Railroad magnate, John P.

    McRoy, commissioned the New York archi-

    tect, Clarence Curter, to design the 20 room

    estate.

    The property was an Operational Dairy

    Farm supporting a herd of 50 Holsteincows.

    In 1918, The Celtics original basketball

    team was formed at the Farm.

    On July 1920, the property was donated

    to the Hudson Guild, a charitable organiza-

    tion, which ran the property as a camp.

    On July 10, 1921, the creation of the

    Appalachian Trail was conceived during a

    meeting in the estate house.

    The Hudson Farm Club operates the

    Hudson Farm Foundation which makesannual disbursements to local charities in

    the community.

    ed to provide wigs for the

    children with cancer

    through Beautiful Lengths,

    an organization that uses

    donated hair to make wigs

    for children affected by can-

    cer. The requirement was

    that donated hair had to be 8inches. Over 60 inches of

    hair was collected that day.

    the head-shaving fundrais-

    ers. Its an easy and fun way

    to raise money for a very

    serious cause - like a

    walkathon, but without the

    blisters. St. Baldricks

    Foundation, does one thing,

    and they do it well: they

    fund childhood cancer

    research.
