For Paula Magone, the fight against bullying is a per-
sonal, and often challenging one. Magone, who grew
up in New York City, says that she has been a life-
long victim of bullying, enduring mental and physical abuse
while growing up.
To help combat the issue of bullying in schools, and to
teach children to step in and help others who are being bul-
lied, Magone created the NCJ Magone Anti-Bullying Fund.
The fund, which began in 2011, is named after her three
children: Nicholas, Christina, and Joseph.
Each year since the scholarship fund began, a handful ofRandolph High School seniors who have been accepted to
a college, university, or trade school have received the
award. In order to be considered, students must write a brief
essay describing how they have helped someone who has
been bullied, or how they went out of their way to be nice
to a student in need.
"The purpose of the scholarship," Magone says, "...is to
encourage someone to reach out and do something." Such
actions, she explains, greatly help the individual who is
being bullied, and "it shows that you care."
This year's scholarship recipients include four high
school seniors whose essays stood out among the rest.These recipients earn the higher monetary awards for their
anti-bullying actions, but everyone who participates is a
winner, Magone explains. At the annual award ceremony
each participant's name is listed in a brochure.
The anti-bullying stories for 2014 included one of a foot-
ball player who befriended a student who had always want-
ed to become a football player himself, but whose handicap
prevented him from playing on the field. Instead of allow-
ing the student to sit on the bench during every game, this
high school senior stayed with him whenever possible and
became his buddy. Together, the students bonded and
played games as often as they could, allowing both students

with Anti-bullying Campaign
Paula Magone
to feel equally part of the football team.
In another story, a student who ran for the school's stu-
dent council election and lost came out on top by demon-
strating commendable behavior towards the winner. Many
students began to shun the student who won, but the student
who lost the election stepped in to help. Instead of standingby and allowing the poor behavior towards the winner to
continue, this student stepped into a leadership role and
began helping the other student by advising others to be
nice and to accept the winner.
Yet another story touched on the difficulties of transi-
tioning from middle school to high school, a time when bul-
lying can be a big concern for incoming freshman. In this
particular case, the award recipient knew a young girl who
was moving into high school from middle school, and who
was also being bullied. Concerned for the girl's safety, and
knowing that the student was struggling, the older student
spoke with the incoming freshman constantly and stayed by
her side during the school day. The student also talked to the
freshman student's sister and family, informing them about
the bullying.
Magone encourages adults and children alike to take just
a few minutes out of their busy day, or week, to do some-
thing nice for another person. She explains that a seeming-
ly simple action, such as letting someone go ahead of you
in line, is very important.
Magone will hold an event for her anti-bullying cam-
paign on Saturday, September 20, at the Taste Bar and
Bistro in Randolph. The event will include artwork and
music. Donations and proceeds will go directly to the
Randolph High School.

The Blood Center of New Jersey
(BCNJ) is appealing to all eligible
blood donors and the community at
large for help with the current blood supply.
Current inventories are at dangerously lowlevels and less than half a day supply is avail-
able for NJ hospitals and patients. Summer
collections are usually slower than normal but
this year the State Health Department is
reporting a 12% reduction in collections from
last year state wide. This has created a deple-
tion of readily available blood products for
hospitals and trauma centers. Our first major
objective is to make sure the blood is ready
when patients are in need and given our cur-
rent inventory levels, we are urging the pub-
lic to respond stated Tina Ilao, President andCEO for the blood center. Demand continues
to outpace collections and BCNJ is asking the
public for their help in replenishing the cur-
rent blood supply. Anyone 17 years or older,
in general good health and who has not donat-
ed in the past 56 days are asked to consider
blood donation at this time. The Blood
Center of New Jersey requests that you visit
their web site at www.bloodnj.org to find a
donation site nearest you. In addition, dona-
tion centers are located in Parsippany and
West Orange to help with your donation.Blood center officials note that each unit
of blood donated is broken down into several
components including platelets, plasma, and
red cells, so one donation can save up to three
lives.
The donation process is safe and simple.Donors are first asked medical history ques-
tions and given a mini-health check, includ-
ing pulse, blood pressure, and iron level. The
actual donation of blood takes just 5 to 7 min-
utes, and then the donor is given a snack and
juice. The entire process generally takes
under one hour. Donors will receive a free
cholesterol screening.
16 year olds can donate with a consent
form signed by accompanying
parent/guardian, weight 120 pounds and be in
general good health. There is no upper agelimit for donors provided they meet health
requirements. Donors should bring a signed
or picture form of identification and know
their S.S. #. Please eat a meal one hour
before donating and drink plenty of water.
For those who have recently traveled out-
side of the United States and for other eligi-
bility questions, please call the blood center at
973-676-4700, ext. 132.
If you require any additional information,
please call 1-800-652-5663, during regular
business hours.

Area residents are invited to enjoy a
day of family-friendly music for the
cost of canned food donations that
will support the Community Foodbank of
New Jersey. Foodstock 2014, organized by
Sound of Humanity, Roxbury Recreation, andRoxbury Arts Alliance will take place at
Horseshoe Lake Park, Roxbury, NJ, on
August 30, from 11 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
For less than $10 the cost of four 16
ounce cans of food a family of four can help
New Jersey residents who dont have enough
to eat and hear eight different bands that are
donating their time and talents to support this
event, said Larry Salomon who heads Sound
of Humanity. All of the canned goods that
will be collected will go directly to the
Community FoodBank of New Jersey, whichhas over 1,000 partner organizations through-
out the state of NJ.
Community FoodBank of New Jersey
(CFBNJ) distributes more than 40 million
pounds of food a year, helping feed more than
900,000 hungry people in the state.
Every day, we see hard-working families,
struggling seniors and vulnerable children
who face hunger, said Julia Kathan, Director
of Public Relations and Communications for
CFBNJ. Our latest numbers show that there
are more than 39,000 people in MorrisCountry alone including nearly 16,000 chil-
dren who dont always know where their
next meal is coming from.
In some cases, the neighbors who are hav-
ing difficulties feeding their families are
working, and might not qualify for most
forms of public assistance.We recently met a Morris County mother
who, like her husband, has a job but cant
make ends meet as they try to raise their two
young daughters. This womans eyes filled
with tears at a local food pantry. She told us,
Its simple. Food helps us live, said
Kathan.
Among the bands that have volunteered to
play for Foodstock 2014 are Matt Mead Band
(Elizabeth, NJ), The Bent Benjamins (West
Chester, PA), and Under a Ton (Roxbury, NJ).
Each of these bands will play music thatevery member of the family can enjoy, said
Salomon. Additionally, there will be food
vendors on hand so you can buy lunch for the
family without having to miss a single note.
A few activities for younger kids will also be
available, at an extra cost, if your children
want to do something else during the festi-
val.
This event is made possible by the gener-
ous support of local businesses: Aires
Jewelers, D Lovenbergs Portable Toilet
Rentals, Kuiken Brothers, Merry Musicians,PanAVid, The Powder Bar, and ShopRite.

Morristown Car Wash Has Revitalized The Car Wash Experiencea vehicles finish are removed with high
pressure prior to entering the tunnel wash
process. We believe that the most efficient
and safest way to wash a vehicle is by hand
using mild detergents. Harsh chemicals candestroy the finish on your vehicle while
stripping off protective waxes leaving the
painted surfaces vulnerable to damage from
environmental factors. After the vehicle is
prepped for washing, thick mild detergents
are foamed onto the vehicle and mitted in to
lift the dirt off of the vehicle. Then the
vehicle proceeds through the tunnel to
receive any extra waxes to protect and shine
the vehicle followed by a fresh water rinse.
After the car passes through the finishing
step in the tunnel, the blowers, the finish-ing employees towel dry the vehicle with
microfiber towels and pressure blow the
water out of the mirrors and thoroughly
clean all windows.

Terry Cook thinks of
Lead East as a
work of art in
progress. It is Cooks
Appleton Productions of
Long Valley that has
brought the event, known
as the worlds biggest 50s
party, to life for 32 years.
Each year theres some-
thing different for specta-
tors to enjoy. Meanwhile,
it keeps true to its theme:
celebrating the innocence
and fun of the 1950s with
cars, music, B movies and
dance. This year fromWednesday, August 27
through Sunday, Aug. 31st
the parking lots of the
Parsippany Hilton on Route
10 will turn back the hands
of time welcoming 1,800
classic cars, plus inside
having a variety of bands
and doo wop groups, sock
hops, and more.
So whats new this year?
Mr. Joe Jangles is a one
man performer who hails
from Detroit. Cook saw
him as a street performer in
Texas and knew he wanted
Jangles for Lead East.
I love this guy! said
Cook.
Cook shared that people
will see Jangle every-
where from Friday
Sunday.
Something that Cook
has long wanted for Lead
East is a Caribbean steel
drum band. This year,
Lead East has one, in the
person of Mustafa
Alexander from Brooklyn.Alexander will be playing
in the hotel lobby atrium on
Saturday and Sunday from
9 11:30am.
Teaching the Shag
will be Tony and Suzy
Eldrith of North Carolina.
Shag is similar to the jitter-
bug, but a little more com-
plicated. It is big in the
South, shared Cook. Shag
lessons will be given on
Friday and Saturday.
The showing of B
movies at a drive-in in
the Hilton parking lot is a
Lead East tradition. There
will be three B Godzillia
movies shown this year.
However, it is the first time
Lead East is showing a
Korean Godzilla movie.
Cook shared that it has
Godzilla dancing to rock
and roll.
There will be a variety
of vendors and a chance to
be an early Santa. Food,
toys, collectibles, and auto-
motive-themed items andmore will be on sale. Also,
the Military Transport
Association will be set up
among the outside vendors
in front of the Hilton, col-
lecting unwrapped toys for
Toys for Tots. All toy
donations collected will be
delivered to the US Marine
Reserve Unit at Picatinny
Arsenal. They will be dis-
tributed during the holiday
Mr. Joe Jangles, a real one-man band, will be strolling around
and performing during this year's Lead East.
Lead East Brings the 1950s to Parsippanyseason to needy children in
the North Jersey area.
Of course, Lead Easts
roots is cars..and there
will be plenty of them.People from about 22 states
will make the trip to the
Hilton to show their cars
and help add to the 50s
atmosphere. Cook has long
said that Lead East is a fam-
ily event and that is evident
by the people who join in
the tradition year after year
and those just discovering it
for the first time.

S
tuttering is a frustrating and embar-
rassing problem for millions of peo-
ple, but it can be especially tough on
elementary school-age children. Help isavailable for parents, teachers, and speech-
language pathologists at most public
libraries in the form of a DVD designed to
help school-age children who stutter. Some
libraries have an older video version. It's
meant to give speech-language pathologists
the tools they need to deal with stuttering in
this age group, but it also offers good ideas
for parents and teachers," said Professor
Peter Ramig of the University of Colorado
at Boulder. Ramig is one of five nationally
recognized experts appearing in the DVDproduced by the nonprofit Stuttering
Foundation. The DVD features students
from first through sixth grade, some of
whom talk about their experiences with
stuttering. They talk openly about the teas-
ing they face from classmates and how their
stuttering sometimes makes them feel about
themselves. "We focus on demonstrating a
variety of therapy strategies that are appro-
priate in working with children who stut-
ter," adds Ramig. He appears in the DVD
along with speech-language pathologists
Barry Guitar, Ph.D., of the University of
Vermont, Hugo H. Gregory, Ph.D., and June
Campbell, M.A., of NorthwesternUniversity, and Patricia Zebrowski, P.D., of
the University of Iowa. These five experts
answer questions about stuttering, refute
myths and misconceptions, and present
examples of therapy sessions showing how
stuttering can be reduced. More than three
million Americans stutter, yet stuttering
remains misunderstood by most people,"
said Jane Fraser, president of the Stuttering
Foundation. "Myths such as believing peo-
ple who stutter are less intelligent or suffer
from psychological problems still persistdespite research refuting these erroneous
beliefs." The 38-minute DVD, entitled
Therapy in Action: The School-age Child
Who Stutters, produced by the 67-year-old
nonprofit Stuttering Foundation is available
free of charge to public libraries nation-
wide. Other libraries that will shelve it can
contact the Foundation at 1-800-992-9392,

Apple Montessori is an established
school celebrating its 41st year,
serving infants, toddlers, preschool-
ers and Kindergarteners ages 6 weeks - 12
years (6 weeks - 6th grade). Presently, they
have 17 locations including Denville,Randolph, Montville, and Morris Plains,
NJ. They are family owned and operated
since 1972 by the Bailey Family. They are
the oldest and largest school in Northern
New Jersey. Montessori is the largest pre-
school, early childhood development organ-
ization in the world. However, all
Montessori schools are individually owned
and operated and are therefore different.
Montessori is a method and philosophy of
teaching developed by Dr. Maria
Montessori, who was the first female med-ical doctor in Europe at the turn of the cen-
tury. There are several things that make
Montessori different from traditional
schools. First, they have special games and
materials that have been made and designed
specifically for young children. Each game
teaches a particular skill through active
hands-on involvement. A child learns the
easiest and fastest from birth to six years of
age than in any other time of life. The sec-
ond characteristic that makes Montessori
different from traditional preschool is thatthey allow each child to develop at his or
her own pace. The child may go as quickly
or as slowly as they may need to without
any pressure. The child is not pushed to
move ahead before he/she is ready. This is
how they develop strong confidence and
self-esteem. The child also learns that learn-ing is fun! Apple Montessori is different
from other Montessori schools because they
have a unique reading program which yields
great success with their four and five years
old students. Their primary reputation
comes from the ability to develop academic
skills and motivate young children to love
learning. In addition, Apple Montessori
School has brought computers into all of
their classrooms and Fastracks, a computer
enrichment program. They also have a
unique classroom management style. Thisbecomes evident when you first enter a
classroom and it is noticeably calm and
organized. Their character development
program offers children the knowledge nec-
essary to cultivate ethical and responsible
behavior while providing them with the
tools necessary to their growth as responsi-
ble caring individuals. A special guest
comes in 3-times per year to offer advice
on topics such as morals, values, how to be
kind and polite, etc. Parenting seminars on a
variety of topics are also sponsoredthroughout the year. Apple Montessori
Apple Montessori Offers ClassesSchool is open year round. During the months of July and August, they have a summer
camp program serving students ages 2 through 12. Several of their locations have a swim-
ming pool and teach daily swimming lessons. The pool has been uniquely designed with
safety in mind for young chi ldren. The shallow end allows all ages to stand in the water and
develop a sense of security. In addition, the campers participate in activities such as Arts &
Crafts; Nature & Science; Cooking; Music; Dance; Computers; and Organized Sports. Theolder campers also participate in weekly field trips. The camp program can be a half or full
day schedule. Each location has half day session in the morning (8:30-11:30am) or after-
noon (12:30-3:30pm) as well as a full day session (8:30am-3:30pm). Before and after
school programs are also available. They are open from 7am - 6:30pm. Call the Apple
Montessori School nearest you to arrange a visit or to observe a class. Visit their school or
simply go to www.applemontessorischools.com and find out how many consecutive years
90% of their students have scored in the top 10% nationally and how they are having the
most fun in their lives!

So your dog had an
accident or your kids
spilled juice or din-
ner guests spilled wine on
your rug and now youre inpanic mode. But no need to
worry, most stains are treat-
able if addressed quickly!
First thing with any liq-
uid stain is to blot it up with
a damp paper towel as
quickly as possible.
Remember to blot not to
rub it in (rubbing will exac-
erbate the problem by
pushing the stain furtherinto the carpet fibers).
There are home reme-
dies and old wives tales to
get stains out of your carpet
yourself but it is usually
preferred you call J&S
(973-605-5225), your local
care specialist with the
stain type, carpet fiber
(silk, wool, or synthetic) if
theres time. Otherwise try
No Spot! Not On The New Rug!
some of these tips:1. For solids, scoop
them up with a spoon or the
back of a knife
2. Do not over wet the
area, use a dry paper towel
to blot dry the area once the
liquid is picked up
3. Always blot, never
rub
4. Always use white
towels, any colored towel
could just add dye to theproblem

Following his recent first-place award from the
Pocono Arts Council, Dr. James Gwynne, professor
of visual arts at County College of Morris (CCM),
now has had one of his paintings selected for exhibition atthe 15th Annual Wills Creek Survey in Maryland.
Selected for that exhibition is his painting As One, an
imaginative transparent combination of male and female
nudes.
The Wills Creek Survey is a juried art exhibition open
to contemporary visual artists from across the United
States. This years exhibition takes place September 13
October 10 at the Saville Gallery, 9 N. Centre Street,
Cumberland, MD. More than $5,000 in awards will be pre-
sented to artists during the Opening Reception and Awards
Ceremony on September 13.
In May, Gwynne, of East Stroudsburg, PA, was present-
ed with the first-place award in the Pocono Arts Councils
Members Exhibition for his painting Delicate Sky.
Four of his paintings also were chosen for the annual
juried Westmoreland Art Nationals, which took place inJuly. Those entries consisted of a series of paintings of tele-
phone poles, titled After the Storm, Evening Fog with
Telephone Pole, Evening Pole Silhouettes and
Telephone Pole at Sunset.
A consistent award-winner, Gwynne has gained wide
recognition for his paintings including Best in Show at the
Westmoreland Art Nationals.
Gwynne joined the CCM faculty in 1972. He also has
taught at The College of Wooster and Centenary College.
He earned his B.A. from The College of Wooster, his
M.A. from Michigan State University and his Ph.D. from

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

Using pastry cutter, cut-in shortening and
peanut butter, until mixture resembles small
peas. Drizzle mixture with cold water until
mixture is moist and holds together. Roll out
on floured surface to at least 1/16th of an inch
thickness.
Using 3-by-5-inch index (recipe) card for
template, cut into sixteen 3-by-5-inch shapes.
Re-rolling works fine. In middle of eight
shapes, smear 1/2 heaping teaspoon peanut
butter and heaping teaspoon of jam on top. Be
careful not to go to edges. Using fingers, wetedges with water and place another piece of
pastry on top. Press all sides well, and using
fork press all edges to secure. Using fork,
gently poke tops in four places so steam can
escape.
Place inch apart on parchment lined baking
sheet. Bake for 1314 minutes until starting
to brown around edges. Cool on rack.

by Michele Guttenberger
Thomas Edison could also be called the founding
father of modern day insomnia. The electric light
bulb has changed mankinds sleeping habits forever.
We are no longer influenced by natures schedule but our
own regulated sleeping schedule. Edison took advantage ofhis own new manmade daylight schedule to become a well
known insomniac. But, he was not alone in his insomnia.
Recently discovered records show the unimaginable work
timetable he had with his team of 7 lab assistants that fol-
lowed his same condensed sleeping schedule.
They jokingly called themselves The Insomnia Squad.
They were a group of driven experimenters Edison selected
in 1912. They reached the hallmark of project commitment
when they intently worked for five weeks both day and
night to arrive at a solution Edison was obsessed in finding.
His focus was on the Diamond Disc record. There was a
million dollar inventory of phonographs sitting in ware-
houses but no records for them. He was in a predicament
because there were still bugs to be worked out in the man-
ufacturing process of the Diamond Disc record before it
could be brought to market.
Edison was known for his insomnia but never to this
extent where it continued for weeks on end accompanied
with a team. His wife Mina would check up on him when
his laboratory work called him away from his home life for
too long a period. This kept him from falling into extreme
sleep deprivation and physical neglect. She even placed a
bed in the lab library so he could get some bed rest.
However, Mina was not there to control this notorious 1912
insomnia marathon. Mina had unexpectedly rushed to
Akron, Ohio, to tend to her dying mother. This allowed
Edison to continue his work without any regulated controls
in his sleeping schedule and also driving his team to work
around the clock along with him.Thomas Edison never slept a long restful night. If he
was intent on a project, his schedule was to work on it until
he was tired and then he'd lie down to sleep. He claimed
that when he awoke from these short sleeping intervals he
was refreshed and ready for work. Mostly, Edison believed
in the 15 minute cat naps that he often did seating at his lab
desk chair. Napping in a sitting position at the office desk
made it hard for his employees to tell if their boss was deep
in thought or napping. Edison said he personally enjoyed
working 18 hours with short catnaps each day and an aver-
age of four to five hours of sleep per night. According to
Edison Most people overeat 100 percent, and oversleep
100 percent, because they like it. That extra 100 percent
makes them unhealthy and inefficient."
Most of Edisons team were enthusiastic about their
work and felt honored working on these revolutionary proj-
ects with their famous team leader. There were relaxing fun
moments too. His lab had a pipe organ, Edison played it
after completing their work and his assistants would have a
sing along. Edison had the ability to inspire his assistants
and gain their loyalty and dedication by working hard
alongside them and joined them in the camaraderie of
unwinding occasions together too. When a new employee
Thomas Edison Was Famous for His Insomnia and Had a Team of Insomniacs Too
asked him if there were any work rules, Edison replied
"There aint no rules around here. Were trying to accom-
plish something."
You can visit the laboratory where he averaged 18 hour
work days and see the bed his wife Mina placed in the
Laboratory Library. Please visit The Thomas Alva Edison

By Joe Klock, Sr.
Spontaneous droppings gleaned from bottom of the
Inspirational Bird Cage:
When NASA's robot, CURIOSITY, explored the sur-
face of the planet Mars, it reportedly found no evidence ofESPN, empty beer cans or pornography, proving that our
astronauts were, indeed, the first men to have visited there.
A word to the wise is usually unnecessary.
RUDYARD KIPLING REVISED: "If you can fill each
unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance
run, Yours is the world and everything that's in it, And a
heart attack before you're fifty-one."
Politics is the modern American art of getting money
from the rich and votes from the poor by promising to insu-
late each group from the greedy, self-serving goals of the
other.
Roseanne Barr and others like her exhibit a touch ofcrass.
Too many cooks tend to make far more dirty pots and
pans than does one cook who is working without assistance.
Few things spotlight the illogic of American politics
more clearly than the selection of our Vice presidential can-
didates. After millions of dollars are spent in primary elec-
tions, the choice of our second-in-command is left, entirely
and arbitrarily, in the hands of the successful candidate,
with no input whatever from the electorate. Why not, one
wonders, bestow that honor on the second choice of the
nominee's party? This would seem to be a better idea than
anointing the hand-picked, politically expedient and oftenfeckless nominee of the front runner.
How come words of wisdom are so often in conflict?
E.g., "Haste makes waste" and "He who hesitates is lost."
Query concerning a respected old saying: If beauty is,
in fact, only skin deep, just what are we looking for:
Glamorous guts? Cute kidneys? Lovely livers?
Why do my children's birthdays make me feel older
than my own do?
Tell me how come we tend to be so apprehensive about
tearing off those "Do Not Remove" tags from new pillows,
blankets and mattresses? Like, what's the worst they can do
to us if we get caught in the act or are later ratted out by ahostile bedmate?
You can succeed as a parent by simply making your
children feel safe, guided, wanted, loved and worthwhile.
Most of the other merit badges and demerits are likely to
befall you accidentally.
Give your pets and your kids everything they want and
you'll probably end up with good pets and troublesome
kids..
Always leave people you love with warm words each
and every time you part company with them; it might well
be the last time you'll ever see them in this world.
Rather frequently, people who say that something can'tbe done are interrupted by other people who are actually
doing it.
Leisure, praise and rewards are best enjoyed when they
have been really earned.
By and large, as long as you feel reasonably good,
older tends to be more gratifying than younger.
Have you ever noticed that the things you love to do are
the things that you do best?
It makes little or no sense to expect that our children
will listen to our advice and ignore the conflicting examples
we set for them.
The best way to enjoy your children is to love them for
Chips Off The Old Klockwhat they are, rather than thinking about what you'd like
them to be or what they might have become.
A good goal in life is to be all that you can be that you
WANT to be; chances are slim-to-none-that you'll ever be
more than that.
Most people really want advice for the same reason thatdrunks want lampposts - for support, rather than for illumi-
nation.
Most people who are fond of saying that money isn't
everything usually have more than enough of it.
PARODY ON BARBRA STREISAND'S HIT SONG,
"PEOPLE:"
"Peepholes, people who use peepholes, are the yucki-
est people in the world. Through your curtains, they're
peeking through your curtains, Skulking about outside,
ogling your backside, Acting more like creeples than peo-
ples. (Granted, the foregoing opusette needs work.
Collaborators will be welcomed and royalties shared equi-
tably.)
A SENSIBLE RULE TO FOLLOW: Don't speak -
never utter a syllable - unless and until you are absolutelysure that the sounds you make will be an improvement over
the silence you will irreversibly destroy.
ON PREDICTIONS: It's almost a sucker bet that the
future will arrive with a surprised look on its face.

8/11/2019 Randolph - August 2014
33/44
Authors Diana Drew and Robert Grayson took an
inspiring sojourn as they wrote the new book
"Jewish Threads: A Hands-On Guide to Stitching
Spiritual Intention into Jewish Fabric Crafts" (Jewish
Lights Publishing). Exploring the intriguing stories behind
each of the book's 30 Jewish fabric craft projects fromthroughout the United States and Israel, the authors redis-
covered many of the Jewish traditions underlying hand-
made fabric crafts.
Members of the Temple Hatikvah Sisterhood will retrace
the steps the authors took on the way to this spiritual awak-
ening on Sunday, Sept. 7, at 9:45 a.m., at the Sisterhood
Membership Kickoff Breakfast, at the synagogue, 58
Pleasant Hill Road, in Flanders. The Sisterhood
Membership Kickoff Breakfast is free and open to the pub-
lic.
In a special talk, titled "Jewish Threads: Crafting a
Jewish Life," the authors will discuss the spiritual journey
they took in writing the book and the Jewish traditions that
suffuse these crafts. Jewish cultural heritage will come tolife through the stories of these fine handcrafted pieces.
As part of this special event, attendees will have a
chance to hand-sew Feelie Hearts for grieving children.
These small, stuffed fleece hearts, which are given to chil-
dren who have suffered a terrible loss, are donated to organ-
izations both in the United States and in Israel.
Deep-rooted, spiritual inspirations and religious convic-
tions about life and death, peace and war, birth, marriage,
Authors to Speak at Temple Hatikvah Sisterhood Membership Kickoff Breakfasthealing, family life, holidays, new beginnings, and how
those beliefs influence the work of fabric artists--all are
interwoven into the fabric of "Jewish Threads," which takes
readers on a journey of sacred creativity. The book presents
an array of fabric craft projects, plus the backstory behind
each of the pieces featured in the book--how and why theywere made and what sparked the idea for each one. Among
the projects spotlighted in the book are tallitot (Jewish
prayer shawls) and Torah mantles, shulchan (lectern) covers
for the synagogue, Purim puppets, a knit seder plate, an
apples & honey Rosh Hashanah challah cover, a ChanuCats
quilt for Chanukah, and many more.
A section titled "Inspirations" includes stories of five
more projects that inspired the authors to write the book,
including a quilted chuppah (Jewish wedding canopy), cre-
ated collaboratively by members of National Council of
Jewish Women, West Morris Section, of which Drew servesas co-pr
