by Elsie Walker ou may have seen ads on TV for certified preowned cars; now, you can get a certified pre-owned cat! During July, Noahs Ark Animal Welfare Association, Inc., 1915 Route 46 West, Ledgewood, is running a certified pre-owned cat program. The usual adoption fee for an adult cat is $125, while a kitten would cost $200. For July, the adoption fee for all cats is $75. Our adoption fees do not cover the cost of care, spay and neuter, vaccinations, microchip, deworming and flea/tick treatments, at regular price, so this is a great deal. For us, it isn't about the money, but placing more cats so we can take in others that need us, said Todd Cramer, executive director of Noahs Ark. This unique adoption promotion was originally done by the Michigan Humane Society. Cats are most at risk of euthanasia in this country, so we
J Blood Services, which supplies blood products and services to 60 hospitals throughout the state, is in need of volunteers to work blood drives. The blood service volunteer is an integral member of the collection team whose task it is assist donors with registration, escorting and canteen duties, and to watch for post donation reactions. Volunteers should have the ability to relate to the public, be able to perform different jobs as needed and have the willingness to follow the rules.

have to get creative when working to save more of them, said Cramer. Cramer shared that cats are relatively low maintenance; they are independent. Also, cats are quite entertaining and make great companions. Also, Cramer noted that with a cat, ones gets the benefits of a dog without [the pet] needing to be walked. Also it has been proven that pets have a calming influence and lower our blood pressure. Among the pre-owned cats available are Mary and Toby. Mary is one year nine months old. She arrived at Noahs Ark on March 19th. Cramer describes Mary as sweet and loving. She loves to be held and gets along well with other cats. Give her an ear scratch and a treat and she will be yours forever. Shes a very interactive and social cat, he said. Toby is a four and a half year old orange domestic short hair. Hes super laid-back and an all-around pal. He loves to eat, but we prefer to think of him as big-boned , said Cramer. A video of Toby can be seen by clicking under his picture at: http://www.noahsarknj.org/?page_id=127 So far this year, we have adopted[out]75 more cats than last year - January through July 6th. By making some operational changes, making the adoption experience pleasant, and promoting our cats, such as with the Certified PreOwned Cats special, we are saving more lives. Now we need the community to join us in our mission by adopting a pet and donating to our cause, so we can continue to achieve such wonderful outcomes for the animals, Cramer said.

n Thursday, July 21 Miss Tess will perform at the Stanhope House (lounge) starting at , cost $8 (21+) and $12 (under 21) Show is ages 18+. The Stanhope House is located at 45 Main Street, Stanhope, NJ. 973-347-7777. About Miss Tess Miss Tess is Brooklyn-based performing songwriter and bandleader. She currently tours with a tight knit quartet complete with guitar/lap steel, upright bass, drums, and herself on guitar and vocals. Similar to artists such at Tom Waits, Randy Newman, Madeleine Peyroux, or Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks, Miss Tess draws inspiration from older styles of music, and uses those sounds in the service of her own personality. Critics have had a hard time assigning Tesss music to a specific genre; when she still lived in Boston she won a Boston Music Award for "Outstanding Folk Artist of the Year" (2008), in 2009 she received a nomination for "Best Jazz Act", and in 2010 was nominated for "Best Roots Act" by the Boston Phoenix. Miss Tess & The Bon Ton Parade not only played in most venues in Boston, but are also hardened road warriers who have found homes in all types of venues ranging from upscale jazz clubs, music festivals, to local dive bars. This past fall, Tess released The Waltz Set, a concept ep comprised of, yes, songs set in 3/4 time. The original songs include lilting memoirs of bicycles and ferris wheels, as well as one cover of The End of the World, Skeeter Davis' 1962 hit country song.

By Elsie Walker or classmates Nico Gordon, Stanhope; Jayden Todd, Budd Lake; Alison Church, Byram; Ella DeDecker,
Netcong; and Brian Tobar, Hopatcong, Flag Day marked the end of their studies. They had made it. The sky was the limit. They were ready to go on to bigger and
better things....such as Kindergarten! The scene was June 14th as Kidworks of Netcong held its graduation ceremony. Kidsworks of Netcong is a privately-owned early childhood learning center located in the Stanhope United Methodist Church in Netcong.
"Since it was such a small group this year, I had the privileged of having a very tight knit, friendly group that got along so well. This group was excellent in sharing and took to every theme and letter of the week with a thirst for knowledge said Kelly Murray Beers, DirectorOwner of Kidworks
Staying with the patriotic theme of the day, Flag Day, the children sang out their hearts for the red, white, and blue. Their songs included: The Star Spangled Banner, You're a Grand Ole Flag, This Land is Your Land, Yankee Doodle, and I'm Proud to Be an American. In addition, the children

and those in attendance got to see a look back at year through a slideshow. Murray Beers noted that it is always a tear jerker. The program ended with the Good Bye Song. Murray Beers has seen many graduations at Kidworks. She has been associated with it since 1998. During that time, she had only a brief, on and off three year absence to pursue a degree at William Paterson University in Wayne. She has been the Head Teacher since 2004 and obtained full ownership of the school on January 1, 2005. She reflected on what the graduation meant to her. Every class leaves footprints on my heart and it doesn't matter how long they have been with me, either from birth to Kindergarten or just Pre-K. I learn something from each child and cherish the time I have had with them, she said.

This year we are very happy to be a part of a nationwide program called "Wheels to Prosper." This program awards a fully serviced car to a worthy and deserving person chosen from the local community. Recommendations are taken for individuals that are locally active in community service and then one lucky individual is chosen from those suggestions. They receive a late model car that has been fully inspected and repaired as needed. Our first giveaway will take place at our annual customer appreciation day on July 30th, 2011. We'll be doing clambakes, horseshoe tosses, games, tons of food, live music and many more fun activities down at our shop. See you there!
Did you know that on average most vehicles will lose up to 15% of their refrigerant gas each year? Much of this loss occurs when your AC system has not been used for extended periods of time, such as over the winter. So if your automobile does NOT feel cold enough, then it may need some routine maintenance, such as recharging the refrigerant, normally a very simple and easy item to take care of. Give us a call to set up a time and well be happy to take a look.

privilege to view these documents in their original form. But the biggest challenge was to have them organized into a rational collection. Imagine if someone were to take all the correspondence and mail off your desk and place them into a storage container based on the time period they were collected. What kind of filing system would this be? Advertising circulars and utility bills would be mixed in with very personal letters. Decades later, someone would have to make sense of this collection where the only relationship is that they shared a common owner. This has made it a hard task to archive since many articles are handwritten and deciphering them into a proper reference category can be a librarians nightmare. However, to a document archeologist this can be a very interesting discovery. They get to know the man Thomas Edison in a virtual open and personal way. After all, you may be the first set of eyes in over a hundred years to view both these great and trivial details. Stuck in between those jotted lab notes may be the lab sundry bills that Edison was notoriously delinquent in paying. So who are these document archeologists, leading this trek to an indoor expedition that cuts pathways to the illustrious mind of the Wizard of Menlo Park? They are a team of editors/scholars at Rutgers, State University of New Jersey that forms the Thomas A. Edison Papers Project team. It is one of the most ambitious editing projects ever undertaken by an American university. It has spanned decades and includes 5 million pages of documents. This project has scanned these documents into an electronic repository to be viewed by the virtual world. Now the chief goal of the Edison Papers team is producing a fifteen-volume book edition of transcribed and interpreted documents. It will provide an overview of Edison's life and career but also significant resources for understanding the development of all his pioneering technology. It will also cover relative emerging technology too. It is through the great organization of the Edison Papers Project, writers are able to provide inspiring books, and also offer up tantalizing trivia. For instance - Did you know that Edisons 1875 patented electric pen was retrofitted in the 1890s as the first electric tattoo pen? Trivia facts such as these can only come from great document expedition projects. If you want to help champion a great Project Team on this discovery expedition, then here is the link to make a donation: http://edison.rutgers.edu/help.htm Visit The Thomas Edison Museum.

by Michele Guttenberger homas Edison may have had over 1000 patents on file with the US Patent Office, but there is a vast unreferenced mother lode of prolific notes and letters jotted down in pen and pencil from the man himself. Most of Edisons important and incidental written notes have been preserved. However, for many years the only way to view these written collections was to put in a records request to the Thomas Edison Museum in West Orange, NJ. Finding the topics written in Edisons own handwriting and likewise replies to his correspondence is a tedious journey. This research method could be a quest with limited answers.

n Italy, panini refers to any kind of sandwich but here, its all about the cheese. Bursting with cheese and flavorful ingredients, the panino is a popular lunchtime favorite at delis and cafes across America. However, its easy to enjoy a mouthwatering panino at home any day of the week by using premium cheeses and experimenting with different ingredients. Tiffany Collins, chef and author of 200 Best Panini Recipes, suggests making small twists on classic sandwiches and using natural, not processed, cheese. The panino is all about the cheese its what holds the sandwich together. I only use 100 percent natural, real cheese like Sargento Sharp Cheddar, Baby Swiss and the new Natural Blends Cheddar Mozzarella, Chef Collins said. The flavor profile and variety of Sargento cheeses is amazing, so you can find the perfect combination of ingredients to suit your own personal tastes, like in my Island Pineapple Chicken Panini or Veggie Stuffed Grilled Cheese Panini.
Panini Tips: Breads with a firmer texture hold up better (e.g. ciabatta). If the bread is softer, you can brush a little bit of olive oil on the outside of a panino before grilling to give it a crisper texture. When making a breakfast panino, try sauting the vegetables (e.g., green peppers, baby spinach) and then use the same pan to cook the eggs so the eggs will pick up some extra flavor. Cut a panino with a sharp knife that has a straight edge. Serrated knives can catch on the melted ingredients, pulling them out of the sandwich. To make your vegetables and fruit stay crisp and crunchy, add them to your panino after grilling. Visit www.Sargento.com for more product information and recipes. Island Pineapple Chicken Panini Serves 2 2 slices fresh pineapple (1/4-inch thick) 2 ciabatta rolls, split continued on page 24

ummer is the ideal time to have friends and family over for casual get-togethers that are centered on the grill and outdoor dining. Add some zip to your summer party with a few tips and a simple recipe that are sure to please your guests. Set the Mood Get the party started right with some great music. Bring the speakers outside and start your playlist about 20 minutes before anyone is expected to arrive. That way, you get into the swing of things early and youre ready for any early birds. Creative Summer Apps Set out some no-fuss appetizers that add some fun to the menu. Make festive veggie shooters by putting some of your favorite dip into shot glasses along with a few colorful veggie strips. Keeping it Cool Dress up a pitcher of ice water and add flavor by adding slices of lemon, orange or even cucumber to the water. Keep some slices on ice for extra garnish on the glasses. The Main Event Nothing beats the taste
of food hot off the grill. Whether youre cooking beef, chicken, seafood or veggies, you can make them even more delicious with marinades. Adding a flavorful marinade kicks it up a notch when youre grilling meats at home, said chef and entertaining expert Jamie Gwen. Start with a basic sauce and layer flavors to suit your familys taste. Many of the tastiest grilled dishes can be whipped up using just a few ingredients. A versatile sauce like Heinz 57 Sauce, an American classic thats celebrating its 100th anniversary this year, is a great way to add zest and flavor to meats, veggies and even seafood, according to Gwen. For a marinade, she recommends covering your meat in an air-tight container and refrigerating for at least half an hour so it has time to absorb the flavors completely before hitting the grill. This recipe for marinated grilled shrimp, using Heinz 57 Sauce, gives a tangy new twist to a classic favorite. If you want to
serve it in appetizer portions, use 6-inch skewers. Thread 2 shrimp on each skewer and grill as directed. For more delicious party recipes, visit www.heinz57.com. Marinated Grilled Shrimp Prep Time: 5 minutes, plus 1 hour for marinating Cook Time: 7 minutes 1/4 cup Heinz 57 Sauce 1 cup dry white wine 1 cup extra virgin olive oil 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice 3/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped (or 1/4 cup dried basil) 24 raw, peeled and deveined jumbo shrimp In a medium bowl, whisk together sauce, wine, oil, lemon juice and basil until well mixed. Pour into resealable plastic food storage bag. Add shrimp and seal tightly, turning until well coated. Allow to marinate in refrigerator for up to one hour, turning occasionally.
Preheat grill to medium heat. Remove shrimp from refrigerator, reserving the marinade and discarding the bag. Thread shrimp onto 4 skewers and grill for 4 to 7 minutes or until cooked through, turning often and basting with reserved marinade during last 3 minutes of grilling.
