he 5th grade Junior Troop #162 girls who attend
Bragg School in Chester just completed their
Bronze Award This is the highest award a JuniorGirl Scout can achieve. They identified a need at the
Chester Library for a space for kids who are in the in-
between ages of 3-5th grades. The library has a "Teen
Room" and a childrens room, but no area designated for
this age group. They re-decorated an area within the chil-
drens room and named it " Cool Kidz Reading Lounge" -
a name in which most of the 5th grade voted on. Troop 162
created a piece of artwork for this new space and the
library funded the purchase of the new chairs, carpet, and
ottomans. The girls used their girl scout cookie sales prof-
it to help fund the project as well.

Borough council representatives are pleased to

Attention Medicare Beneficiaries
The flagpole on the front lawn of the
Morris County Courthouse on
Washington Street in Morristown
will be painted this weekend and will need
approximately two weeks to cure. As a
result, Morris County officials want thepublic to know that flags will not be flying
from the flagpole during that time.
In the interim, however, an American
flag will be placed outside of the front
entrance to the courthouse during regular
business hours.
Flags will again be flown as soon as theflagpole is able to accept them.

Breakthrough Treatment Now Available In Long ValleyImagine thirty to forty years ago if you were told that lasers
would replace scalpels in surgery or that robotic instruments
would build cars; you may not have believed it. By the same token
would you believe that chiropractic treatments could be performed
using a special hand-held instrument developed by NASA scien-tists; all while you were sitting in an upright position without turn-
ing or twisting movements?
Advances in computers and engineering technologies have
been able to uniquely blend with chiropractic in order to both ana-
lyze and treat the human body in such a way that was never before
realized.
According to Dr. Michael S. Hyjek, This new form of comput-
erized treatment is so gentle and effective, that it amazes even the
most skeptical patients. Its called the ProAdjuster and is the latest,
state-of-the-art technology in existence today, and the only one in
the Long Valley area
The ProAdjuster can safely and gently analyze and treat the
spine and other joints to remove the nerve impingement that is
often the cause of pains in the low back, neck, shoulder and else-
where in the body. It also works on a variety of muscular condi-
tions to loosen tight muscles with ease and comfort. Many patients
say that its like getting a mini-massage.
It can also help increase the amount of motion in almost any
joint. Even patients with knee, hip and foot problems such as plan-
tar fasciitis are being helped. It is also covered by most insurance
companies including medicare.
Dr. Michael S. Hyjek, the secret to the ProAdjuster lies in its
advanced piezoelectric sensor that is able to detect the slightest
amount of restriction in a joint and then deliver an extremely pre-
cise adjustment. He says that Even though traditional forms of
adjusting also work, people are drawn to this new technique
because of how gentle it is and does not involve
any twisting, especially in the neck. Many peo-
ple love getting adjusted with traditional manual
techniques, all of which are safe and effective,
but there are a large number of people who never
get to experience the amazing benefits of chiro-
practic because they are scared to have their
spines adjusted in that way, says Dr. Michael S. Hyjek, Now,
there is no longer a reason for anyone to be weary. The
ProAdjuster is perfect for anyone who has been thinking about
going to a chiropractor, but hasnt yet made that decision. Dr.
Michael S. Hyjek, wants everyone to be able to experience thesesame benefits and if you have any of the following conditions,
the ProAdjuster may be the answer youve been looking for
Low back discomfort Fibromyalgia
Sciatic nerve pain * Planter Fascitis
Neck and shoulder pain Knee or hip pain
TMJ dysfunction Scoliosis
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Arthritis
Headaches Sports injuries
Treatment with the ProAdjuster is consistent, measurable and
extremely gentle. There is no guesswork, and its safe for indi-
viduals of all ages. Call our office today and mention this article
to receive a FREE ProAdjuster analysis to pin-point your prob-lem area and see how the ProAdjuster can help. Call within the
next 7 days and you will also receive a complimentary nerve
stress scan and computerized muscle test that can show the areas
of your stress and how its affecting your body. Call 908-876-

lifestyle. You may no longer have to live with a persistent,
painful condition. Call us today.

On Saturday, May 25th, the Morris County Parks
Commission and Fosterfields Living Historical
Farm will present "Civil War Remembrances", a
special event on the 150th Anniversary of the Civil War.The location is truly appropriate because of its direct con-
nection to this momentous time in Americas history.
General Joseph Warren Revere, grandson of Paul
Revere, purchased the property in the mid-1800s and built
the impressive Gothic Revival home, The Willows.
Charles Foster purchased the farm in 1881, changing its
name to Fosterfields.
Early in the Civil War, Revere was appointed colonel of
the 7th New Jersey Volunteer Infantry. His courage and per-
formance through many battles had him quickly moving up
the ranks. However, the Battle of Chancellorsville, Virginia
in 1863 became Reveres most personally challenging timein his distinctive military career. Regrouping his men dur-
ing the chaos of battle lead some to believe he was retreat-
ing, which resulted in a court-martial. Eventually President
Lincoln overturned the ruling, but General Revere turned in
his resignation.
Historian, actor and author William Chemerka will be
portraying General Revere in the Willows, along with his
wife Debbie as Mrs. Rosanna Revere. He will share with
the public his experiences at Chancellorsvil le along with his
undeserved court-martial. Bills latest book is about the
Willows most celebrated inhabitant, titled General Joseph
Warren Revere; the Gothic Saga of Paul Reveres
Grandson.
In the Visitor Center, author and historian Robert Jones
will present an impressive display of original Civil War arti-
facts and memorabilia. The extensive exhibit covers just
about everything related to the Civil War, but there is a
strong emphasis on the personal side of the soldier what
he carried, brought from home, or purchased from the camp
sutler.
Mr. Jones will also have available and will be signing his
Civil War related books. Recently he completed his fourth
book Civil War Artillery A Pictorial Introduction.Previous to that he has published The Civil War Canteen
Second Edition and Battle of Gettysburg The Relics,
Artifacts & Souvenirs. Although thousands of books have
been written on Gettysburg, he was the first to have pub-
lished an in-depth study with over 750 photographs on the
rare battlefield relics and the unique souvenirs associated
with the famous event.
Anxious to get todays youth more involved in American
History, Robert published his first childrens book titled
Children at the Battle of Gettysburg Their Unforgettable
Summer. The story itself is fictional, but based on actual
events just prior to and through the famous 1863Pennsylvania battle. It lets children learn about Gettysburg
and the Civil War in a fun and exciting way without even
realizing it. The gory details of war were purposely avoid-
ed and the kids today can put themselves directly in the
middle of what was a calamitous experience by children
Local Author has Book Signing and Civil War Exhibitsuch as them 150 years ago.
This event is in conjunction with the 150th Anniversary
of the Civil War and it is an opportunity for both young and
old to experience and better understand the hardships and
sacrifices which were made during the most horrendous
time in our nations early beginning. Bob Jones and Bill
Chemerka are both members of the 33rd New Jersey
Volunteer Infantry and have been active in promoting Civil
War history throughout New Jersey for over 20 years.
Fosterfields is also a working farm with a variety of ani-
mals - using the tools, techniques and materials of the 19th
century. The event is on Saturday, May 25th and "Mr. and
Mrs. Revere" will be at their front door to welcome all from
1:00 3:30. Mr. Jones will be in the Visitors Center the
entire day from 10:00 5:00 to discuss the Civil War, sign
books, and explain the artifacts on display. Fosterfields is
located at 73 Kahdena Rd., Morristown, NJ (973) 326-7645

Y
ou may recognize his name from hispast appearances on Saturday Night
Live. These days, Breuer is also awell-known resident of Chester, where heuses his background in comedy to bringattention to important issues within thecommunity at The Hive.
The Hive is located in the ChesterSprings mall, and is a new store in the area.This store is run by the Morris County ArtsWorkshop (MCAW), and is designed to pro-vide a creative outlet for people within thecommunity.
Breuer, an author, filmmaker, and stand-up comedian, recently hosted a fundraising
event for the MCAW. This event, titled "AnEvening With Jim Breuer" began with acomic impression of Jane Shatz, director ofMCAW. However, the smiles and laughterfrom the crowd turned to serious and atten-tive faces as Breuer began to describe thereason for the event.
The comedian explained that he wasimpressed by the passion Shatz had for theorganization. Breuer continued on, statingthat he felt strongly about getting the artsout into the community. He explained that
he began the Family Film Festival as aneffort to help "encourage arts here in
Chester" with film classes and improvclasses. The goal, states Breuer, is for peo-ple to come to support the arts in their own
community rather than traveling into a larg-er city.
Breuer believes that The Hive is an opti-mal place for opportunities such as improvclasses. During the evening, he told theaudience that he could see himself usingThe Hive for many reasons, one of which isto storyboard his ideas. In addition, hewould like to use the space to teach animprov class for local children. Breuerexplained that there are many children with-in the community who are "dying to doimprov with nowhere to go."
Part of his passion is to bring arts to chil-dren, as the programs tend to be the firstones cut in schools to help save money.Breuer noted that while education is certain-ly a vital component of any school, "it canput people in a box and smother the pas-sion." He continued on to say that passionshould be explored by all children, and notleft in the background.
Breuer's involvement has been crucialnot just to get an important message out thecommunity, but also for the longevity of
MCAW. Lori Klavsons, MCAW volunteer,was grateful for the time the comedian spent
Jim Breuer Focuses on Making Art a Priorityin Chester and the Surrounding Area
during his evening in town. Klavsons notedthat Breuer was helpful in several ways,helping to give their "almost non-existent
budget" a boost, and to "keep free scholar-ships and lessons going."
The event lasted for a total of two hours,and included many stories, many of whichrevolved around his career, life, family, andthe town of Chester. While many of hisstatements regarding the town broughtlaughter from the audience, there were sin-cere and truthful messages behind them.Some of the lines from the night include his
jokes that "the neighbors live 40 milesaway" and that he uses a tractor to go trick-or-treating around town on Halloween.

tion can be improved by the use of correc-
tive lenses. In keeping with this worldwide
need, Governor Chris Christie has pro-
claimed May 2013 as EYEGLASS RECY-
CLING MONTH. The Governor has sin-
gled out New Jersey Multiple District 16 for
their repeated devotion to helping others,
the concerned and compassionate members
of the New Jersey Lions Clubs have earned
the respect and admiration of all who knowof their efforts and have set the standard for
community service that other organizations
might emulate.

Breuer, who ison the board at MCAW, affirmed, I want to encourage thearts here in Chester. Yes, Chester! Film, improv, open micnights all here at The Hive so people can come here andnot have to go into the City.

prizes.The Hive activity continued well into the weekend.
Chester Borough Mayor Robert Davis, Chester TownshipMayor Bill Cogger, and Billy Andrews, property managerof Ramco-Gershenson Properties, the owners of theChester Springs Mall, were on hand with a crowd of art
patrons to assist Shatz in the ribbon cutting ceremony. BothMayor Davis and Mayor Cogger concurred they are grate-ful for MCAWs efforts and are active supporters of thearts. The Hive will bring a higher element in the educa-tion of the arts for children of all ages, commented MayorDavis.
MCAW is amazing, added Mayor Cogger. Theyunderstand the arts are the core to a civilization and bring-ing people together.
Andrews further pointed out that the concept of anactive art space, such as The Hive, in a retail mall is some-thing special.
Other activities during the Grand Opening Celebration
included performances by the MCAW string ensemble andrenowned jazz saxophonist and teacher Allen Won; live artby Charley Pellecer; crafts; Legos; and gallery previews.
Chester Recreation Director Maxine Finney commented,Chester now has a place for the arts where the communitycan come together to be creative. She plans to host more

Meet The Morris County Clerk Candidates
Iknow what it takes to
operate the Morris
County Clerks Office
and no other candidate has
my work experience or cre-dentials. That is why twenty-
four Republican Mayors
have endorsed me and I have
earned the support of
Congressman Rodney
Frelinghuysen, Senators
Joseph Pennacchio and
Leanna Brown, former
County Clerk Joseph Bell
and County Surrogate John
Pecoraro.
As a practicing attorney
and small business owner, I
regularly use the Clerks
office.
As a Freeholder, I oversee
the operations of the countys
more than 311 million dollar
budget, including the Clerks
office. I have delivered a 0%
flat tax for 2013. Prior to the
Governors 2% CAP, I
capped municipal spending
to the rate of inflation!
As a Parsippany Council
President and Vice President,
I reduced spending, generat-
ed millions of dollars in rev-
enue, wrote ordinances, testi-
fied in Trenton, and spon-
sored the 911 memorial. As
Chief of Enforcement over
statewide operations, I com-
manded a staff of more than
100 public employees with
five statewide regional and
three satellite offices.
I will make the Clerks
office the most efficient and
technologically advanced
office in the State and protect
your interests. I ask for your
support again on June 4th.

ations and a very good

natural transition for
Nowacki.

Barbara Eames, of
Whippany, is a candidate
for Morris County
Freeholder in the June 4
Republican primary. Barbara con-siders herself a non-establishment
conservative, bringing years of
grassroots activism to her cam-
paign.
Eames believes that county
government needs to be down-
sized. This means reducing the tax
burden by looking for both effi-
ciencies and a prioritization of nec-
essary services and spending.
The Freeholders participation
in a large regional planning organ-ization threatens personal property
rights, and grants too much deci-
sion-making authority to non-
elected bureaucrats, rather than
local elected officials.
With 25% of Morris Countys
land area already protected from
development, $95 million still sits
in the County Preservation Trust
Fund. It is time to re-examine the
policy of continuing to tax citizens
to acquire Open Space.
Eames was a nine-year member
of the Hanover Twp. Board of
Education, serving as president of
both her local and County school
boards. She has been an electedmember of the Morris County
Republican Committee since 1993.
She has advised state legislators
on policy issues, and worked
closely with local grass roots
organizations to train citizens to
support local, state, and national
candidates for public office.
Eames is a music teacher in the
South-Orange and Maplewood
School District.

My name is StephenDeHart and I amrunning for Morris
County Freeholder. I havefinancial experience andresponsibility being a privatebusinesses owner , a realestate investor , and a gradu-ate with a degree inEconomics. My family haslived in Morris County sincebefore the Revolution. Theyfought in the RevolutionaryWar, served on the FirstContintental Congress, andhelped shape the NJConstitution. My runningmate Barbara Eames and I are
contending as ConservativeRepublicans against theRegular RepublicanOrganization. We are non -establishment candidates.
As a caring life long resi-dent of Morris County I haveunfortunately noticed a
potentially unrestrictedincrease in government athigher levels due to ideas ofregionalization and landposession.
In Morris County alone,25% of land has been boughtby government entities.Nearly $95 million rightfullybelonging to the tax payers ofMorris County sits in a slushfund used by the county todole out political favors whileinaccurate comparisons areirresponsibly used to spendbeyond their means.Programs such as Open Spacecreate no tax revenue, but
plenty of spending proving tobe detrimental to our econo-my.
There are very few peoplewilling to address our countydebt of over $250 million.This type of spending andborrowing is masked by rev-
enue given to local govern-ment offices and agenciessuch as Homeland Security aswell as rises in costs to the
public in Health Services,County Clerk Fees, andMotor Vehicle Fines.
These are just a few exam-ples to why I am running forfreeholder. I hope to see youat the voting booths on June 4th.

P
atriots Path Council, the regional head-
quarters for Boy Scouts of America serv-
ing scouting in northern New Jersey, will
be sending five, 36-scout troops to the 2013
National Scout Jamboree this summer. One of
these troops is Jamboree Troop A319 with
scouts and leaders from as far north as High
Point and as far south as Chester, NJ. Jamboree,
held once every four years, will be located in the
newest Boy Scouts of America high adventure
facility, the Summit Bechtel Reserve, in the
mountains of West Virginia. With over 1,000
acres, the facility will host more than 40,000
scouts, leaders and staff from across the nation.
Scouts attending Jamboree 2013 this summerwill be there for the grand opening of
Jamborees new permanent home.
Jamboree Troop A319 meets routinely to pre-
pare for their trip to Jamboree. The scouts par-
ticipate in ice breaker activities to get to know
one another as they begin to work together as a
team in their patrol. Each patrol has been tasked
to choose a patrol name, design a patch and
patrol flag, and come up with a skit and a cheer
that they will present to the other A319 patrols
during their practice shakedown campout
weekend. A flag competition will take place
amongst the troops patrols. The winning patrol
will go on to compete at Jamboree with other
patrol flag winners for a chance to display their
flag at the Jamboree stadium. A special Class A
uniform is required at Jamboree which will
proudly display the Troops name A319, the
official 2013 Jamboree patch, and the specially
designed patrol patch.
Attending Jamboree is a chance to experi-
ence what Sir Robert Baden-Powell, the founder
of the Boy Scouts, envisioned for scouting. He
envisioned a large encampment of scouts to cel-
ebrate scouting while enjoying the highest level
of scouting experience. Scouts will spend 10
days camping, meeting other scouts from acrossthe nation, and participate in high adventure
activities such as whitewater rafting, archery,
rock climbing, zip lines, mountain biking, boat-
ing, and more. They will learn new skills that
they may not otherwise have the chance to try.
In addition, Jamboree will hold exhibits and sta-
dium shows with entertainment, and will give
opportunities for the scouts to visit nearby his-
toric places and perform conservation projects
in the local environment. A once in a lifetime
experience awaits these scouts.

Though not necessarily common,
migraine headaches can affect chil-dren as well as adults. One study
found that by age 15, 5 percent of all chil-
dren and adolescents had suffered from
migraine headaches, while 15 percent had
experienced tension headaches. Children
often suffer from headaches because of a
cold, fever, illness or infection, including
infections of the throat and ears. Sinusitis
also may cause a child to suffer from
headaches. Ideas as to what causes a
migraine headache have changed over the
years. Scientists long linked a migraine
headache to the dilating and narrowing of
blood vessels on the surface of the brain.But now scientists suspect a genetic link
could be behind migraine headaches. An
estimated 70 percent of children and adoles-
cents who have migraines have an immedi-
ate family member who also suffers from
migraines or did as a child. Such youngsters
also may be inheriting a tendency to be
affected by migraine headache triggers like
bright lights, changesin the weather and
fatigue. Kids who spend too much time in
the sun or are too physically active may also
be susceptible to migraine headaches.

Back in 1970, the Autosport Automotive Group was
founded by Gerald A. Lustig. His first store was a
Fiat dealership in Bound Brook, NJ. Over the years,
the group famous for its no pressure approach to car sales,
expanded to over 14 franchises, both domestic and import.
President Gerald A. Lustig states "An opportunity camealong for us to get back in the Fiat business after all of these
years. I have always thought their cars were pretty trick and
definitely a lot of fun to drive. I actually raced a few Fiats
in the SCCA over the years. We're excited to be the exclu-
sive Fiat dealer in the Morris County Area. Fiat of Morris
County, here on Route 53 in Denville is a new Fiat studio
and offers a unique vehicle with some incredible attributes."
Sales Manager Mike Olsen really appreciates the her-
itage and future of this unique marque and knows why it
should be a big success in this area. "I am so happy to be
part of the Autosport Automotive Group. It's exciting to be
part of a dealer group with owners that are as excited aboutthe brand as I am. This new studio location, right in the
middle of Denville, NJ is going to offer the community a
great car and incredible car buying experience."
Autosport Automotive Group VP Steven Lustig has a
great appreciation for the Fiat brand from both a marketing
perspective and the driving experience. When I first started
seeing the commercials and marketing materials for the Fiat
brand I said to myself, "Now there's a brand with a clear
vision and a brand that gets it. Mike asked me if I would
drive the Fiat Abarth Cabrio around a bit so we could get a
little exposure. What I didn't expect was the smile that car
put on my face the first time I took it out. In fact, I can't help
Fiat from Italy to Denville!
but smile still every time I drive it. Now I just have to make
sure my wife doesn't get to the garage before me in the
morning. The very emotion I felt driving the car was the
catalyst for our 'Rediscover' campaign."
Fiat of Morris County offers some incredible amenities.
Every new and pre-owned vehicle comes with an exclusive
complimentary maintenance program and for a limited
time, all new Fiats are being delivered with a free iPad,
courtesy of Fiat of Morris County. Steven Lustig says "We
have a great facility with an incredible team. These cars are
so much fun to drive! We invite everyone to come down,
have an espresso with us, and take one for a test drive and
try not to smile".

So many of my patients have come to Acupuncture as
a last resort for their fibromyalgia pain, exhausting
every other treatment for this menacing and painful
disease. The most common symptoms associated with
fibromyalgia are as follows: pain in the muscles and joints,
brain fog, digestive problems, insomnia and fatigue. Each
individual diagnosed with fibromyalgia exhibit varying
symptoms based on the length of the disease. Fibromyalgia
is tenacious in nature and expresses itself differently in each
individual. It is this differentiation of symptoms in each
individual that responds so well to Acupuncture and
Chinese Medicine. Each individual is diagnosed based on
their presenting symptoms according to Chinese medical
diagnosis, not because a patient has been diagnosed with
fibromyalgia. Each patient is evaluated and a treatment
plan is designed for that patient only.
I have found over the many years of treating fibromyal-
gia that my patients look healthy, hence their pain and
symptoms very often are not taken seriously and many have
been put on anti-depressants by their doctors. As a result,
fibro sufferers receive little empathy from family, friends,
and health care practitioners. Western doctors often avoid
billing using a fibromyalgia code fearing reprisals from
insurance companies that are still debating the validity of
the disease. Most fibromyalgia patients dont respond well
to pain medication and have found little response to drug
therapy.
No one knows or understands how and why fibromyal-
gia originated. Western medicine has yet to determine the
cause, although some believe it may be an autoimmune dis-
ease. However, according to the ancient theories of
Chinese medical differential diagnosis, fibromyalgia fol-
lows patterns of imbalances associated with Qi (energy),
organs and energetic qualities of the body leading to pain
syndromes, some of the following pattern are most oftenseen in patients suffering with fibromyalgia:
1. External Pathogens- According to Chinese medicine,
a cold or flu is treated by releasing the pathogen to the exte-
rior. Part of this process includes opening the pours by
causing a sweat. If an exterior pathogen is not treated prop-
erly, it can become latent and lodged in the interior of the
body. This unresolved virus can lodge itself in the muscle
tissue, or more seriously, n the organs of the body.
Interestingly, antibiotics are often used when a person
comes down with a cold or flu, but Chinese medicine
knows that antibiotics are very cold in nature and cold caus-
es contraction. When antibiotics are used in the presence of
an exterior pathogen, the pathogen cannot move to the exte-
rior thus getting trapped in the muscle tissue.
2. Liver Qi Constraints - The Livers main job is its abil-
ity to move Qi throughout the entire body. When the Liver
function becomes obstructed or constrained there is a ten-
dency for the Liver to become heated. Not only does the
Liver function become impaired, but the Liver overacts on
other systems. It can affect the Heart function causing
insomnia and the Spleen and Large Intestine functions caus-
ing digestive difficulties. With Liver Qi obstructions there
is typically an emotional component or imbalance causing
frustration, easy to anger and even depression.
3. Dampness Phlegm is produced in the body when
there is too much dampness, this Phlegm is a sticky sub-
stance which can adhere to every cell in your body.
According to Chinese medicine, Phlegm is not just restrict-ed to your respiratory system. People suffering from
fibromyalgia often have Phlegm lodged in the muscle tissue
causing stagnation and pain. This is one of the factors that
make fibromyalgia patients difficult to treat with western
medicine. Western medicine has no way of recognizing or
clearing dampness from the tissues, but Chinese medicine
and Acupuncture have been doing this for thousands of
years.
4. Qi Deficiency Many patients with fibromyalgia suf-
fer from severe fatigue. Their energy is often so depleted
that they cant hold down a job or even care for their fami-
lies. Chinese medicine knows how to build your Qi or ener-gy without further strengthening the pathogen. This is why
fibromyalgia patients cannot use typical supplements that
build energy and vitality in the body.
The patterns listed above are the main underlying pat-
terns seen in fibromyalgia patients. The only way for a
Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine Provides Relief
for Those Who Suffer From Fibromyalgiapatient to regain their health in this situation is to release the
pathogen and resolve the dampness. Both Chinese herbal
formulas and Acupuncture can get you back on the road to
wellness. For a more detailed explanation, please see my
website, www.skylandsacupuncture.com and click on pain
management, under the section for articles, and also read
the testimonials from my fibromyalgia patients.

Sugar: Not So SweetFor Your Health
Men and women often joke about needing their
daily "sugar fix." But the American Heart
Association notes that the average American is
consuming nearly twice the amount of sugar he or she
should be, a mistake that could be jeopardizing sugar con-
sumers' long-term health.
If sugar is a staple of your diet, then the following are a
handful of factors that might make you reconsider your
relationship with the sweet stuff.
* Sugar may increase risk of diabetes. Studies have
shown a link between sugar consumption and diabetes. A
study published in the journal Diabetes Care revealed thatsubjects who drank one to two servings of sugar per day
were 26 percent more likely to develop type 2 diabetes than
those who drank one serving of sugar per month or none at
all. Sugar-sweetened beverages contribute to weight gain,
and overweight and obesity are risk factors for diabetes.
And the quick delivery of sugar to your body from sweet-
ened beverages can lead to insulin resistance and inflamma-
tion over time.
* Excessive amounts of sugar can negatively affect your
heart. A study in the Journal of the American Medical
Association found that people who got 25 percent or more
of their calories from added sugars were far more likely tohave low levels of HDL, also known as "good cholesterol,"
than those whose diets included less than 5 percent sugar.
Low HDLlevels increase your risk of stroke, heart disease
and heart attack.
* Sugar may negatively impact mood. A sugar high may
temporarily boost your mood, but researchers from Baylor
College of Medicine discovered a correlation between
sugar consumption and depression. The exact link is
unknown, but some researchers feel insulin resistance
resulting from heavy sugar consumption forces the release
of stress hormones, negatively affecting mood.

Each year the National Park Service provides a special
day of activities at the Thomas Edison Factory and
Laboratories in West Orange, New Jersey. It iscalled Edison Day. Admission is free on this day. The tra-
ditional programs for this event have been an organized
family day of activities that includes: ranger talks on a vari-
ety of topics, tour of Edisons Glenmont house and grounds,
Edison innovative cement garage with the family cars, and
film appreciation of Black Maria films (The West Orange
Black Maria was the first movie studio in the United
States). This years Edison Day will be held on Saturday,
June 1st.
Thomas Edisons West Orange location is a national
treasure of the original factory and lab buildings that hous-
es the tools, inventions, equipment, records, films and doc-uments of Thomas Edison. These building structures alone
are museum artifacts of an industrial era in American histo-
ry. This makes the Edison factory and lab location a unique
place of being a museum inside of a museum.
The West Orange location was Thomas Edisons vision.
Edisons innovations outgrew his Menlo Park location. In
1887 he employed Henry Hudson Holly an architect to
design the largest laboratory ever built. The result was a six
building lab complex that took a construction crew of 200
men to build. Many historians believe that this New Jersey
laboratory was the largest in the world when it was erected.
It is estimated that half of Edisons 1,093 patents were con-
ceived at the West Orange location such as: his work with
motion pictures, patented improvements to the phonograph,
and experiments with cement, alkaline batteries and rubber
substitutes. It is the West Orange location that expandedEdisons horizons from inventor to successful manufactur-
er, businessman, and marketer of his inventions to the pub-
lic. In West Orange, New Jersey Edison created new inven-
tions, manufactured them and then sold them to the world.
The other half of this NPS national treasure in West
Orange is Edisons home - the Glenmont Estate. It is a 29-
room Queen Anne-style home resting on 15 acres of land
and is only one mile away from Edisons labs and factories.
In 1886 the Glenmont Estate became Edisons wedding gift
to his second wife Mina Miller. Mina would open up the 30
seat dining room to invite dinner guests that ranged from
the Wright Brothers, Henry Ford, Charles Lindbergh, HelenKeller and the King of Siam. The home served as confer-
ence center besides a family residence since they extensive-
ly entertained their illustrious guests in their home. All of
Edison familys original home furnishing have remained
intact and in their exact rooms when Thomas and Mina
lived there.
The Glenmont estate is the birth place of New Jerseys
42nd Governor - Charles Edison. He was the son of
Thomas and Mina Edison. Their daughter Madeleine mar-
ried John Eyre Sloane in the Drawing Room of the
Glenmont home on June 17, 1914, a marriage that would
bear the only grandchildren to Thomas Edison. The
June 1st: A FREE Family Day to Visit A National TreasureThomas Edison Created In West orange
Glenmont estate is the burial resting place of Thomas and
Mina Edison. In 2012 New Jersey honored Mina EdisonsGlenmont estate with a Womens Heritage Trail marker to
dedicate a Womens Heritage Trail where women played a
pivotal role.
Dont miss this free family admission day on June 1st
that recollects the pivotal history that took place in New
Jersey that ushered in 20th Century modern day living to
America and also the world from Edisons West Orange
labs and factories. The Thomas Alva Edison Museum- NPS

brate her Bat Mitzvah and wanted
to do something special to help homeless
dogs in need. Olivia is a Junior Volunteer
with Eleventh Hour Rescue so she naturallydecided to make that organization her spe-

responded in a very generous manner.
Olivia collected many donations of sup-
plies such as high quality food products,
collars, leashes, an
