N
ow that its in the history books,members of the Randolph High
School girls soccer team can lookback on their season with a sense of pride
and accomplishment. Not just because theyfinished with a strong overall record of 13-4-2 and won the Morris County TournamentChampionship, but because they played thegame with courage and a belief in one
another.The Rams also advanced to the NJSIAA
North I Group IV Sectional Tournamentwhere defeated on penalty kicks by Cliftonin the quarterfinal round. The Rams downed
North Bergen, 9-0, in the opening round of
the Sectional Tournament.Montclair won the North I Group IV
Sectional crown and Lenape captured theState Group IV title. It was the fifth straight
Group IV State title won by Lenape, a SouthJersey powerhouse, as they topped Ridge,2-0, in the State championship game.
When she reflects upon the season,Randolph head coach Colleen Suflay has a
vast amount of positive memories that shesable to relate with specificity.
The season itself has been filled withgreat excitement, learning and growth for
the team,Suflay said. They were fantastic
at developing their own individual talents
and coming together as a single unit. Thegames that provided the greatest amount of
resources to pull from were Westfield,Mendham and Kinnelon. All three gameswere great lessons for learning and growth.
Westfield specifically provided the girlsan opportunity to see that they could findsuccess outside of the conference and coun-ty. Mendham provided the understandingthat they could comeback, perform and
excel in an elimination game to a team whohad previously beaten them and Kinnelonbecause the girls had to focus, maintain dis-cipline and perform at a critical time of the
year.
In general, the Rams squad progressedin right direction as the season advancedand Suflay is especially pleased with theconduct of the seniors on the roster.
All of the players grew as the seasoncontinued, Suflay said. They amassed agreat sense of pride within themselves andgave selflessly to their team. I am particu-larly impressed with the senior class-
Ashley Mariconda, Leanne Manning,Taylor Lusardi and Maria Meizoso.
The success that we had this seasoncame from the units that played together on
the field. The defense, midfield and for-
Randolph H.S. Girls Soccer Morris Country Tournament Champs!wards all showed tremendous improve-ment.
NOTES: Randolph defeated Kinnelon,
2-0, in the championship game to earn theMorris County Tournament title. TaylorLusardi and Alexa Roemer tallied goals inthe second half of regulation for the Rams.Maria Meizoso recorded both assists in the
winning effort. Melanie Durbin was theshutout winner in goal for Randolph..Inthe semifinal round of the Morris County
Tournament, Randolph edged Mendham, 1-0, in the second session of overtime on agoal from Roemer. Durbin preserved the
shut in net for the Rams..The Ramswon in the quarterfinal round of the MorrisCounty Tournament, 2-0, over Chatham.Anna Conklin and Stephanie Gonnellascored the goals in the first half of regula-
tion for the Rams and Durbin was theshutout winning goalie.

Imaginativefabriccraft projectsby fourMorris Countyartisans areshowcased in a new book exploring the world of Jewish fabriccraftsand theinspirationbehindthis inspiredwork.Called "Jewish Threads: A Hands-On Guide to Stitching
Spiritual Intention into Jewish Fabric Crafts" (Jewish LightsPublishing), the 288-page book presents 30 fabric craft proj-ects, created by talented artisans from throughout the UnitedStates and Israel.
Compiled and written by Diana Drew with RobertGrayson, both of Randolph, "Jewish Threads" delves into thebackstory of each of the pieces spotlighted in the book--howand why they were made and what sparked the idea for eachone. The artisans whose work is presented in the book freelyshare the influences in their lives that prompted them to cre-ate the pieces contained in this treasure trove of Jewish fabriccrafts.
Donna Gross of Randolph created a poignant
peace/shalom art quilt for "Jewish Threads." Also featured inthe new book are handmade holiday puppets by Lesley Frostof MorrisTownship and Dancing Hamantaschen costumes byEllen Muraskin of Morris Plains and Marcy Thailer ofDenville.
World peace is very much on the mind of Donna Grossthese days because her older son, Philip, is serving inAfghanistan. "He is a captain in the Army Green Berets andthis is his second tour of duty in the Middle East," she notes."He was in Iraq the first time for eighteen months. Not a daygoes by that I do not pray for his safe return." Donna'syounger son, Michael, also served in the Army Green Beretsin Afghanistan, earning a Bronze Star for his valiant actions.
He is now pursuing his education in Texas. "I am proud ofboth my sons for who they are and the fine young men they
have grown to be," says the fabric artist. Her peace/shalom artquilt embodies her fervent hope that other mothers will nothave to send their children to war.
In addition to her peace/shalom art quilt, Gross created a
beautiful apples & honey challah cover for Rosh Hashanah(the Jewish New Year), based on a design she created for theNational Council of Jewish Women (NCJW), West MorrisSection, quilted chuppah (Jewish wedding canopy). Both herpeace/shalom wall hanging and her apples & honey challahcover are featured in "Jewish Threads."
When her children were young, Lesley Frost created a setof five hand Purim puppets as a mitzvah project for her syna-gogue's Hebrew school. "My idea was to create fabric handpuppets that a mother and child could make together and thenplay with to reenact biblical events and stories," she notes. Anative of the United Kingdom and a teacher, the fabric artistbelieved that children learn by doing. The puppets she
designed represent each of the key players in the Purim story--Queen Esther, Mordechai, Haman, Queen Vashti, and KingAhasuerus.
In line with the fun-filled Purim spirit, the members ofAdath Shalom synagogue in Morris Plains, who work on thePurim shpiel (Yiddish for "play") every year, came up with"Dancing Hamantaschen," or "Hamantaschenette" costumes,with an eye toward elevating the general merriment of Purim.The actual costume designers, Ellen Muraskin and MarcyThailer, wanted to give their Purim shpiels some added piz-zazz, and the response from the Purim revelersboth theshpiel attendees and the players themselveshas been wildlyenthusiastic.
Author Diana Drew spent a year and a half sifting througha myriad of projects from throughout the United States and
Israel, choosing those that reflected deep-rooted connectionsto Jewish heritage and contemporary Jewish life. Each projecthad to have a compelling story behind its creation, and fit inwith the overall concept of the book as both a volume of sto-
ries about artisans' spiritual intention in making these craftsand a how-to book for novices as well as more experiencedneedle crafters.
"Jewish Threads" is designed to motivate readers to fash-ion some of the traditional ritual items as well as more con-temporary pieces included in the book--individually or ingroups--by offering easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructionsat the end of each of the stories about the fabric artists andtheir spiritual intention. Most of the projects are relativelysimple, and make wonderful gifts.
Readers are encouraged to draw on their own life experi-ences to give the pieces they make a distinctly individual flair,a one-of-a-kind feel. So the book can serve as a springboard
for readers' own imagination and creativity.A special "Inspirations" section includes five stories about
fabric craft projects that inspired the author to write the book,including the quilted chuppah (Jewish wedding canopy) cre-ated collaboratively by members of National Council ofJewish Women (NCJW), West Morris (NJ) Section, of whichDrew serves as co-president.
"Jewish Threads" craft projects range from wall hangingsfor the home to shulchan (lectern) covers for the synagogue,whimsical pieces for celebrating holidays, and meaningfulcraft projects to honor milestones in the Jewish life cycle, andhealing and memorial quilts. Some of the crafts presented in"Jewish Threads," such as challah covers like Donna Gross's,
have roots in Jewish tradition, while others, including Lesley

Center (NYBC), is calling upon thecommunities it serves to please donate
blood. Donations of type O-negative areparticularly needed immediately. WhileNJBS calls upon blood donors to helpachieve its goal of a 5-7 day supply of alltypes, healthy people of all blood types and
ethnicities are also encouraged to donate tohelp save lives.
People with O-negative blood are knownas universal donors because their bloodcan be transfused into anyone. Type O-neg-
ative blood is found in just 6 percent of the
population, but is used more often bypatients with other blood types, especiallyin emergency rooms and trauma situations.
We must remember that the need for
blood is constant. Hospital use of bloodproducts remains high -- due to surgeries,emergencies and care of cancer patients.About one in seven people entering a hospi-
tal needs blood.With the school season well underway,
NJBS would like to encourage students,teachers and faculty to please organizeblood drives, a process that teaches commu-
nity service and leadership skills, andengages the surrounding community. Todate, about 600 elementary and middleschools have sponsored Little DoctorsProgram blood drives. NYBC and NJBS
also offer scholarships for high school andcollege students who initiate and coordinatesuccessful community blood drives.
Donating blood or organizing a blood
drive can be a thoughtful way of honoring
or remembering someone special within thecommunity. Over the years, hundreds ofblood drives have been dedicated to stu-dents, faculty and community members.

Tis The Season To Be Stressedby Kearstin Saya, L.Ac.
T
he holidays are meant to be full of love, cheer
and spending time with family and friends.
Despite the joyful picture that the media por-trays of the holidays, everyone feels the extra stress
leading up to all of the events. All of the hoopla
that goes along with the holidays can put extra pres-
sures on us physically, mentally and financially.
During the last few weeks of the year we are often
overbooking our schedules with shopping, holiday
parties and event planning. This also entails more
traffic on the roads, waiting in longer lines and rush-
ing to make our engagements on time. With all of
these added activities and inconveniences, our nor-
mal routines are disrupted, making us less likely to
exercise, eat healthy and ge t the adequate rest that weneed. This lethal combination can lead to stress, anx-
iety and depression. A combination that prevents us
from feeling the love and good cheer and can even
make us resent the holiday traditions and prevent us
from taking part in the festivities.
The hectic lifestyle that we live leading up to the holi-
days goes completely against the Acupuncture and
Chinese medical perspective, which believes that we
should actually be conserving our energy during the win-
ter months. Much like most of nature goes dormant in the
winter; we should actually be resting more during the cold
months. Instead, we do the exact opposite and exhaust our
internal energy reserves leaving us anxious, stressed and
depressed.
Anxiety and stress manifests differently in each one of
us and ranges from mild reactions like worry to moresevere symptoms like nausea, insomnia, shortness of
breath, palpitations and panic attacks. During a stressful
situation, our bodies react involuntarily. The nervous sys-
tem responds by releasing different stress hormones like
Cortisol and Adrenaline, engaging the bodys fight or
flight response. In ancient times, this was an advantage
for survival when stresses included fleeing from wild ani-
mals that could kill you. The fight or flight response is
a process that triggers an increase in heart rate, blood pres-
sure and respiration. So, this response was necessary for
survival and could actually save your life. The senses are
also heightened as a response. Unfortunately, thisresponse still kicks in from stress that we experience in
everyday life that may not be life threatening. Things like
traffic, an angry boss or a family fight is much different
than getting chased by a hungry bear, but our bodies invol-
untarily respond in the same way. The repeated activation
of these involuntary processes puts great strain on bodies.
From an Acupuncture and Chinese medical perspec-
tive, anxiety and stress is related to an imbalance of ener-
gy in the body. In a healthy person, energy flows smooth-
ly throughout the body. Healthy people experience differ-
ent emotions everyday, which is a normal part of life. No
one can escape being stressed, worried, angry or sad at
certain times, but it is when these emotions are too intense
or when they are prolonged over a long period of time that
they disrupt the balance of energy within the body and
become the cause of disease. This is especially true if theemotions are not expressed and are kept inside for a long
period of time.
Signs & symptoms of an overactive response to stress:
- Anger - Anxiety - Asthma - Depression - Depressed
immune system - Digestive disorders - Headaches - Heart

toms above or is simply just stressed out...there is hope.

ple to cope with stress for thousands of years. It can help
to balance the mental and physical symptoms of stress,anxiety and depression. Acupuncture and Chinese medi-
cine aims at treating the root cause of the issue, as well.

green veggies helps your body to stay
healthy and deal with stress better. Daily
exercise also helps to reduce Cortisol lev-
els and increases the levels of the happy
chemicals in the brain.
6.) Beat Stress With Positive Thinking!
Your conscious mind can help to control
the way that your body responds to stress-
ful situations. Instead of getting down on
yourself, repeat affirmations like I am
fully capable of handling the obstacles that
cross my path and nothing can stand in my
way. Repeating positive affirmations also
reduces the levels of Cortisol that are
released from the adrenal glands.
7.) Write Your Stress Away. Writing in a
journal can help to get your feelings on
paper, relieving any built up tension.
8.) Have Fun! Do something you enjoy
or watch a funny movie. Laughing releases
the feel good chemicals in the brain.

2.) Get enough sleep! Try to get at least
8 hours of restful sleep. Our bodies handle
stress much better when we are well rested.
3.) Start your day with meditation. Youdont have to be an expert to meditate... but
here is a simple technique that will only
take a few minutes a day. Inhale slowly for
10 seconds, pause, then exhale slowly for
10 seconds. Repeat for 5-10 minutes each
day. You can also play calming music to
enhance relaxation during your meditation.
Meditation calms the nerves, reduces the
release of stress hormones in your body
and prevents adrenal exhaustion.4.) Drink your stress away....with Green
Tea this is! Green tea reduces Cortisol, the
hormone that your body releases in
response to stress.
5.) Boost your mood with Diet &

This is Clyde from Eleventh Hour Rescue. He is a happy, 18
month old Wirehaired Terrier Mix and looks and acts like he could
be a movie star! Hes got that scruffy, cute look thats so adorable
and he knows it too. Hes very affectionate and he is both laid
back and low-energy at times and then very active at other times.
His eyes have that pleading look of please take me home now, Im
ready to go. He loves kids, people and other dogs too. If this is
the right time for you to adopt, then please take a look at adopting
this wonderful dog. To read more about Clyde, to see all of our
adoptable pets, to see our upcoming events, or to make a donation,

This is Mack from Eleventh Hour Rescue. He is a young Pit Bull
Terrier mix puppy, abandoned and found as a stray. His ears
appeared to have been badly cropped perhaps by an unscrupulous
owner wanting to use him as a bait dog for fighting. Fortunately,
this little chunky monkey of a puppy is now under the care of
Eleventh Hour Rescue and he is currently at the newly opened
Adoption Center at the Mount Olive, NJ, PetSmart store. He is
all puppy and all about playing with his toys. Hes a very active
young boy on the go and will need lots of fun, love, and play time
wherever he gets adopted. Hes so cute; weve nicknamed him
Mac n Cheese. To read more about Mack, to see all of our
adoptable pets, to see our upcoming events, or to make a donation,
please visit: www.ehrdogs.org or call: 973-664-0865.
Heres Charlotte and Rosie from Eleventh Hour Rescue. Both
girls are Shepherd mixes and they are still puppies at just under 1
year old each. They are sisters and both came from a neglect sit-
uation where they were left unattended outdoors 100% of the time,
in the mud, and in an undersized pen all alone. Charlotte has the
short hair, Rosie has the longer hair. Both girls are very sweet and
are 30-40 lbs. Both are very affectionate and enjoy the company
of people. They do not have to be adopted together. If now is the
time for you to open your heart and your home, please read more
about these wonderful girls on our web site: www.ehrdogs.org or
