Singing to the radio ever since she can remember, fifthgrader Julia Kourpas of Long Valley has been select-ed to perform with the New Jersey Youth Chorus.
Julia, 11, attends Flocktown Kossman Elementary Schoolin Long Valley. She auditioned in June 2012 for the statechoir and got accepted in July.
Joining about 60 boys and girls in grades fourth throughseventh in the NJYC- Intermediate level, Julia is lookingforward to singing on stage in the upcoming concerts.
"I'd like to sing with the radio ever since I was little,"says Julia. Without any prior voice lessons or other familymembers noted for singing abilities, Julia may have a gift.
"I always love to sing," she continues. "Everyone saysthat my voice is very good and that I should get lessons tosing even better and show off my voice. My family doesn'tknow where I got it from."
When Julia sang in a play last year at her elementaryschool, others were impressed by her voice, explains Julia'smother, Heather Kourpas. Every year, the fifth graders singsongs as a group but there is no separate choir offered forstudents to sign up.
Julia's elementary school music teacher, Tara Postigo,encouraged Julia to try out for the NJYC. During the audi-tion at Delbarton High School in Morristown, Julia had topick a song to perform and sing notes as part of a warm-upexercise.
Julia sang the song, "Gong Xi," a Chinese New Yearsong that Julia performed in the fourth grade play last year.
Founded in 1992, the NJYC promotes musical excel-lence with its five youth choirs involving more than 200singers ages six to 18. The season goes from Septemberuntil May and performers must try out annually. One othergirl from Long Valley, a middle school student, also madethe NJYC for the 2012/2013 season.
Every Monday for two hours, Julia attends practice withthe NJYC. Since making the group, Julia has performed atRutgers University on Oct. 13, 2012; and the MayoPerforming Arts Center in Morristown on Dec. 9 for its hol-
iday concert.The next concert is slated for Sunday, Jan. 27, at theChocolate Festival in Basking Ridge; followed by a four-day symposium and performance at Carnegie Hall in NewYork from March 22-26.
Julia has been impressed with the different languagesused in the songs such as Latin, Italian, Hebrew and NativeAmerican.
Since joining the group, Julia's mom has seen improve-ment with her daughter.
Besides working on posture, breathing and annunciation,Julia has learned to feel more comfortable singing in frontof others, says Heather Kourpas.
"It's really helped her confidence," says Kourpas. "Shewill sing one on one in front of others" now. She may even

tryout for her school's talent show."It's fun to sing," says Julia, who hopes to one day try out
for the television reality show, American Idol. "I just likesinging. I definitely want to be on stage and on TV.
When Julia is not singing, she is involved with girlscouts and playing soccer for the Green Township TravelSoccer U-11 Girl's Team.

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 scientists; all while you were sitting in an upright posi-
tion without turning or twisting movements?
Advances in computers and engineering technologies have
been able to uniquely blend with chiropractic in order to both
analyze and treat the human body in such a way that was never
before realized.
According to Dr. Michael S. Hyjek, This new form of com-
puterized 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 con-
ditions 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
plantar fasciitis are being helped. It is also covered by most in-
surance companies including medicare.
Dr. Michael S. Hyjek, the secret to the ProAdjuster lies in
its advanced piezoelectric sensor that is able to detect the slight-
est amount of restriction in a joint and then deliver an extremelyprecise adjustment. He says that Even though traditional
forms of adjusting also work, people are drawn to this new tech-
nique because of how gentle it is and does not in-
volve any twisting, especially in the neck. Many
people love getting adjusted with traditional man-
ual techniques, all of which are safe and effective,
but there are a large number of people who neverget 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 deci-
sion. Dr. Michael S. Hyjek, wants everyone to be able to ex-
perience these same 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
individuals of all ages. Call our office today and mention this
article to receive a FREE ProAdjuster analysis to pin-point
your problem area and see how the ProAdjuster can help. Call
within the next 7 days and you will also receive a complimen-
tary nerve stress scan and computerized muscle test that can

Boy Scout Troop 139 held its annual
fall Court of Honor to recognize the
achievements of its scouts. Scouts
along with their families gathered for this
event which began with a dinner that was
prepared by the scout families followed by
the ceremony itself. Each scout who had
earned merit badges and who had advanced
to their next rank in scouting was recog-
nized.
The fall Court of Honor is an award cer-
emony which recognizes achievements the
scouts have made over the past 6 months,
stated Spencer Keiser, the troops Senior
Patrol Leader. The troop comes together togive recognition for their achievements.

Each achievement is a step on the rung of a

Leaders and the Court of Honor is no
exception. The Senior Patrol Leaders ran
the ceremony by calling up each scout indi-

who had advanced in scout rank. The merit
badges that were earned and advancement
in rank were announced for each scout.
When the scout is called up, he is asked to
explain something he learned while work-ing on his badges, stated Assistant Senior
Patrol Leader Eric Stiner. The support the
scout receives from the troop encourages
the scout and motivates him to do more in
life, added Keiser. After the scout is recog-

the Senior Patrol Leaders. The scout handshake uses the
left hand as it symbolizes the hand closest to the heart.
Scouts develop the necessary skills and knowledge to
earn merit badges throughout the year and at summer camp.
They meet with badge counselors to authorize that theycompleted the requirements of the badge and when all
requirements are fulfilled, the badge is then signed off as
completed.
In addition to completing merit badges, advancement
workshops are held by the troop throughout the scout year
to help the younger scouts complete other requirements
necessary to advance in scout rank. Older scouts sign up
to be instructors. They learn leadership skills and help the
younger scouts understand what they need to work on and
what they need to know to progress to their next rank, stat-
ed Stiner.
Merit badges for swimming, leatherwork, finger print-ing, and space exploration, as well as Eagle Scout required
badges for first aid, emergency preparedness and environ-
mental science are just a few of the merit badges that were
awarded at the Court of Honor. The troops scouts
advanced in rank to Tenderfoot, Second Class, First Class,
and to Star and Life Scout rank. In addition to the scouts
that were recognized during the fall Court of Honor, Troop
139 is also proud of its scouts who recently achieved the
highest award in scouting, namely the rank of Eagle Scout.
Separate Eagle Scout Court of Honor ceremonies were held
this year for each of these Troop 139 scouts. The troop
awarded the rank of Eagle Scout this year to Jacob Aloia,Philip DeCastro, Jared Pelech, and Wally McNaught.

W
hen he was just eight years old, Glenn Lightnerof Long Valley was diagnosed with anaplasticependymoma grade III brain cancer. According
to the Collaborative Ependymoma Research Network(CERN) Foundation, Ependymoma is a rare type of brainand spinal cord tumor that arises from one of the supportivecells of the central nervous system. Glenns was a cancerof the lining of his brain and proved difficult to treat, oftenreappearing in scans only a short time despite numerousrounds of treatment. For this type of cancer, availableoptions for treatment can include radiation therapy andchemotherapy regimens. As his cancer progressed, Glennand his family visited with experts in the U.S. and Europe.Glenns battle with cancer ended on December 12, 2012. Hewas 14 years old.
During the last five years, the Lightner family endured
long trips to treatment centers and arduous periods of wait-ing and hoping for better news as their sons cancer persist-ed. As Glenns fight continued, the community ralliedtogether to hold events and fundraisers to help offset thefinancial costs of his medical needs. In the past year alone,an array of fundraisers from athletic events to concerts andeven lemonade stands were created to help the Lightnerfamily. A bus trip to the Mount Airy Casino inPennsylvania, a tough mudder event and a 5k run, walkor bike event sponsored by the Washington TownshipPatrolmens Benevolent Association (PBA) and co-spon-sored by the Long Valley Middle School were held to raise
money. The hard work of the community paid off as theyultimately raised over $100,000 for the Lightner family. Mr.Lightner was struck by the overwhelming amount of sup-
port he received from his neighbors, and knows that with-out their generous aid the family would be in a differentposition. Lightner explains that just as he was getting readyto sell his house to help pay for Glenns treatments, resi-
dents from Long Valley and neighboring towns began topool their money together. Lightner states that this is oneof the most incredible things he has ever seen.
Glenn and his parents tried an experimental approachwhen the cancer moved beyond the realm of possible treat-ment options in the U.S. Doctors at the Frankfurt UniversityHospital in Germany treated Glenn with immuno vaccinesand aggressive hyperthermic treatments, a more assertivechemotherapy option than what is currently available in theUS. The website cancer.gov describes this as an option thatmay make some cancer cells more sensitive to radiation orharm other cancer cells that radiation cannot damage. Fora brief period of time during the summer of 2012, the
Lightner family rejoiced over an MRI taken shortly afterGlenn returned home from one of these treatments. TheMRI showed that the cancer appeared to be gone, with Mr.Lightner declaring that This is the first time in three yearswe have heard the word clear used.
While their joy was ultimately short-lived, as an MRItaken shortly after revealed the return of Glenns cancer, theLightners continued with their trips to Europe for moreadvanced treatments as the Long Valley community contin-ued to show their unwavering support. Although Glennshealth continued to decline, his strength and determinationcontinued to inspire those around him. Despite his passing,
Glenns inspirational battle will be fondly remembered,along with memories of the Long Valley middle school stu-dent who enjoyed Legos, video games, sports and math.

Q. Tell me about your prac-tice?
A. I am a neurosurgeon whospecializes in minimally invasiveendoscopic spine surgery at Ex-ecutive Spine Surgery in Hack-ettstown, NJ. I completed twofellowships in complex spinesurgery at Stanford University inCalifornia and interventional and
minimally invasive spine surgeryat Semmes-Murphey Neurologicand Spine Institute in Ten-nessee. I focus on treatment ofspinal disorders through pain in-
jections and minimally invasivespine surgery.
Q. What is minimally invasivespine surgery?
A. It is spine surgery with askin incision less than 1-inch,but it is more than just a smallincision. The surgery is donethrough a tube in between back
muscles to decrease muscledamage and weakness causedby muscle retraction. Do notconfuse minimally invasive sur-gery with the term micro-surgery. Microsurgery onlyrefers to the use of a micro-scope not the size of the inci-sion or the amount of muscledamage.
Q. How is endoscopic laserspine surgery different thanminimally invasive surgery?
A. Endoscopic spine surgery
Q. What types of conditionscan endoscopic spine surgerytreat?
A. Treatment is effective forconditions that cause back pain,leg pain, numbness and weak-
ness, such as arthritis, bonespurs, bulging discs, stenosis,herniated disc, facet joint dis-ease, sciatica, scoliosis,spondylolisthesis (slippedspine), instability and others.
Q. What are the surgeryoptions?
A. Endoscopic Rhizotomytreats back and leg pain originat-
ing fromfacet
joints andmedialbranch
nerves.The me-dialbranchnerves arefound andcut
through the endoscope. Patientsusually have almost immediatepain relief lasting for years. Ra-diofrequency ablation (RFA) onlydamages the nerve and usuallyprovides pain relief for six tonine months. Recovery timeranges from one to three weeks.
Endoscopic Discectomytreats back and leg pain result-ing fromherniatedor torndiscspinchingthe legnervescausingsciatica.The discis foundand removed through the endo-scope, providing quick pain re-
lief. Recovery timeranges from two to 6weeks.
Endoscopic Fusiontreats degenerative diskdisease, spondylolysis
(pars fracture), spondy-lolithesis and instabilitythat cause back pain.The disk is removedthrough the endoscope andspinal endplates are preparedfor fusion under direct visualiza-tion.
Endoscopic fusion is doneunder general anesthetic withnerve monitoring to facilitate in-sertion of a cage and spinal in-strumentation. Recovery timeranges from one to threemonths.
Q. Why can you help peopleothers say they cannot?
A. Traditional surgery is lim-ited because the surgeon re-quires direct vision of thepathology with their eye or mi-croscope. The endoscope cam-era visualizes areas that are notusually accessible, through fora-men and around corners. Thisgreater visualization combinedwith less damage and surgicalrisk increases the spectrum ofpathology that can be treatedsafely. This allows treatment of
spinal disorders others say theycannot treat. This happenedmany years ago in or thopedicswith introduction of endoscopeto knee surgery. Today no onedoubts the incredible benefits ofendoscopy of the knee. We areseeing this happen with spinesurgery.
Q. Can you help everyone?A. Not everyone can be
helped or will be satisfied. Thisis still spine surgery. I do sin-cerely believe that in those that
are not improved, the negativeconse-quencesof theopen tech-niques areat leastavoided.Endo-scopicspine sur-gery is the next advance in the
treatment of spinal disorders.
Q. Why doesnt everyone dothis surgery?
A. These procedures requirea unique combination of skillsthat take time to acquire; it is ahybrid procedure that falls in be-tween interventional pain andminimally invasive spine sur-gery. They are cutting-edge tech-niques. I believe that with timethese procedures will replacemost open surgeries of thespine similar to orthopedic, urol-
ogy, general and gynecologicalsurgery. Endoscopic spine sur-gery is the future.
is state-of-the-art minimally inva-sive spine surgery. A microvideo camera is insertedthrough a small incision to thedamaged area of the spine. Thecamera projects the imagesonto a video screen so the sur-geon can easily visualize thepathology. Tiny instruments areinserted through the camera toremove herniated disks, fixarthritis or fuse the spine underdirect visualization. The mediaoften emphasizes lasers butthey are only one of the manyendoscopic instruments.
Q. Why is endoscopic spinesurgery better than traditionalsurgery?
A. Traditional surgery is moredestructive in its approach tothe spine for the problem beingtreated. The larger the incisionthe more collateral tissue dam-age and consequential scar tis-sue that forms. This scar tissuemay result in future difficulties.
Endoscopic spine surgery isextremely minimally invasive,even for minimally invasivespine surgery. The incision isvery small (the size of a finger-nail) and there is minimal dam-age to blood vessels, muscle,ligaments and bone producingvery little blood loss. No generalanesthesia is required decreas-ing medical risks and improvingaccess to surgery for high-riskpatients. These benefits resultin less post-operative pain andquicker recovery.

The new year started off on a high note for the mem-
bers of West Morris Centrals swim team, who were
paired against Hanover Park high school for an
exciting and challenging meet on January 3. Although the
girls team did not win the meet, many individuals earnedtop places and set personal bests. The boys team won the
meet, fighting back against their opponents to secure the
lead and seal their first victory of the year. Both girls and
boys swam well, with several members of each team earn-
ing a personal best time at the meet.
Individual accomplishments were the high point of the
meet for the girls team. In the 200 meter Free race, fresh-
man Kowalewski won first place, while fellow classmate
Castaneda secured a first place finish in both the 200 meter
IM and 400 meter Free races. The two freshmen each post-
ed a new personal best time, with Kowalewskis in the 200
meter Free and Castanedas in the 400 meter Free.Freshman swimmer Cowley also had notable performances,
cruising to a third place finish in both the 50 and 100 meter
Free races. Seniors on the team also had noteworthy per-
formances, with Ungemach swimming to a third place fin-
ish in the 100 meter Back while fellow team member
Shannon came in first place in the 100 meter Breast. The
team truly shined in their 200 meter Free Relay, with swim-mers Crowley (Fr), Lamperti (Sr), Kowalewski (Fr) and
Castadena (Fr) earning a first place finish, nearly eight sec-
onds ahead of their rivals. At the conclusion of the meet,
Hanover Park finished with 111 points while Central had
59.
The boys team also had several thrilling moments of
their own, with great team and individual performances that
helped propel the team into the lead. A dominating perform-
ance by a team consisting of Antonucci (Jr), Donnelly (Jr),
Holm (Sr) and A. Vinh (Jr) captured a first place vic tory and
was followed by a number of outstanding individual per-
formances.Although he posted the highest score in the 200 meter
Free, Schommer, junior class member, ultimately came in
second place. Schommer finished just short of first place
again with a strong performance in the 400 meter Free.
Classmate Beyerl finished third in the 200 meter Free event.
In a thrilling dash for the finish line in the 200 meters IM,
Ambrose, freshman, snuck up from behind in the final 25meters of the race to capture a first place finish. He also did
well in the 400 meter Free, finishing in third place. Dlouhy,
also a junior, swam his best time in the 200 meter IM race,
earning third place. The team had an eventful and victorious
50 meter Free race in which the first three finishers were A.
Vinh (Jr), Antonucci (Jr) and Tamburrino (Sr), respectively.
A second sweep was accomplished in the 100 meter Free,
where A. Vinh came in first place and was followed by
Holm and Waters (Sr).
With a number of great performances already behind
them, it looks to be an exciting year for the members of the
West Morris Central swim team.

Chester Borough Mayor Robert Davissaid 2012 was a year of change, ayear of accomplishments, and a year
of service to borough residents.Davis said there were two retirements inthe police department in 2012, SergeantPete Taylor and Detective Keith Anderson.They are both long-time members of thepolice department. New police officers thisyear are Louise Capone, Jay Hardy, andSean Horst. Previous retirements (in 2011)were Joe Campbell and Bill Kanen.
In the department of public works,Superintendent Bill Harm retired and KevinEskow was hired full time.
Also, the court and court administrator
moved to the 50 North Road municipaloffices. The new court room was completedhere and all meetings are now held here forcouncil, court, boards and commissions,Davis said.
The Chester Borough Department ofPublic Works was honored by the AmericanPublic Works Association for this project.The DPW received a first runner-up awardin New Jersey for saving taxpayer's moneywith the construction of the new courtroom.
Councilman Matt Finney designed thecourtroom and the DPW, led by Bill Harm,built it and saved the taxpayers about
$60,000. This achievement is something theborough should be proud of, because it is ajob well done.
Also, as Davis mentioned earlier this
year, sewer rates have been reduced by 11percent for all users. This was due to thesuccessful settling of a long dispute with theborough sewer operator.
Davis also said the borough completedits second year of successfully working withChester Township on Chester Day. ChesterDay is a combination effort which includescleaning up both municipalities and a cele-bration as well. These activities occur onthe second Satruday in May of each year.
Also, the summer at the Chester AreaPool "was very positive," Davis said. He
added that after spending $200,000 to resur-face the pool in the spring, without borrow-ing funds, "we had a warm summer, fullmembership, happy patrons, good food andmany activites." Citizens know there was anexcellent turnout at the pool this year, andthe kids had a great time as well.
Davis also spoke about the continuedfinancial successes in the borough.
"With a lot of diligent work from ourchief financial officer, we bonded our debtover 20 years, he said.
"This gives us long-term payment stabil-ity and a low, locked-in interest rate," he
Chester Borough Mayor Recaps 2012, Proud About Dpw, Police, Volunteer Services
added.Davis also said the borough contracted
for a solar project to be constructed behindmunicipal offices on 50 North Road. This isa useful endeavor - one that will translate tocost savings.
"This capital project will cost residentsnothing but will provide nearly all of theelectric power for our facilities, and shouldsave the taxpayers over $200,000 for thenext 15 years," Davis said.
Davis also reported that the borough is
doing well with respecting to meetingrequirements for the New Jersey CouncilOn Affordable Housing.
He said the governing body, with thehard work of the Affordable HousingSubcommittee, completed its state requiredCOAH spending plan. He said they alsocontracted with a property seller to purchasea borough property - the Little ItalianKitchen Site - and also contracted to donate

Wa s h i n g t o nTownship (MorrisCounty) Mayor
Kenneth Short said at theJan. 2 township reorganiza-tion meeting that the localmunicipal budget had a mere1.39 percent increase in2012, and that emergencyresponse efforts in 2012 were"performed brilliantly" dur-ing storm Sandy, as he con-tinued to meet with utiliyofficials in these subsequentmonths to let them know that
Washington Twp. Mayor Calls 2012'Extremely Difficult'; Proud Of Excellent
Emergency Response Efforts And Financesprolonged power outageswill not be tolerated.
Short, who was sworn inas mayor, thanked the town-ship committee for placingthe confidence in him to des-ignate him as mayor. He saidhe will continue to accept"the praises and complaintsfrom our constituents."
He reminded them, how-ever, that they all have anequal vote and that they areall responsible for the deci-sions being made inWashington Township.
"We volunteer for the loveof the community," he said inhis speech to the public at themeeting.
Short noted that 2012 wasa difficult year, and thatstorm Sandy added to the dif-ficulties.
He said the the commmit-tee had to make the hard butnecessary decisions to keepthe municipal budget underthe two percent mandated
cap."I am proud to say the the
increase was a mere 1.39%,"he said, adding that hebelieves that was the lowestin the last five years. He alsosaid that this included alldebt and pension paymentsthat could be excluded.
"I do want to remind youthat only 15 percent of thetaxes you pay go to themunicipal government," he
said."Despite an extremelytight budget, severalimprovements were madethroughout this past year," headded.
Short said that in 2012,approximately five miles ofroads were resurfaced, a newambulance was purchased(which will be delivered in2013), and additional radiocommunications equipmentwas purchased to complywith the mandated January2013 narrow bandingrequirement, which takeseffect this month.
Also the township pur-chased two new police cars, anew senior bus, and sevenacres of land with the openspace fund, to provide for theconnection of two large pre-served parcels off ofFairview Avenue - one parcelis 400 acres and another is
125 acres. Short said that
14,500 acres out of the29,000 acres were preservedso far in the township.
"Let the public enjoy theopen space we've been pur-chasing over the last 15years," he said.
The township also bud-geted for a "fire reviewstudy" to analyze the threevolunteer fire departments asto their equipment, training,and personnel. The studyshould be completed thismonth, he said.
Also, the township
worked jointly with the K-8board of education as to theconstruction of a bus mainte-nance facility to be located atthe DPW location on RockRoad. Scott Frech hasbecome the project managerfor this and constructionshould be completed by2013, Short said.
The facility is projected tosave the taxpayers approxi-mately $125,000 per year in
maintenance costs that arecurrently being outsourced.Short said, "this savingsalong with a decrease in ourK-8 student population hope-fully should show a decreasein our local school budget,"he said.
This budget year, 2013,will prove to be challenging,Short said. The effects of theHighlands Act, the stagnatedeconomy and recent loss of
revenue due to commercialtax appeals, will require thatthe township make some sac-rifices. He said that increasedhealth insurance costs andpension payments will alsobe a detriment to the 2013budget.
Short added that the town-ship committee once againasked that all the municipaldepartments submit "flat"budgets for 2013 - meaning'no increase.'
Short said in his speechthat "the municipal budgethas decreased by over$900,000 over the past fouryears. However, revenueshave also dropped," at amuch greater pace. He saidhe can assure the public thatthe committee will do every-thing possible to keep themunicipal budget flat or at aminimal increase in 2013.
He also invited all resi-

one acre from the previous municipal officesite at 300 Main Street.
"For these two sites we contracted withtwo providers to actually develop affordable
housing in Chester Borough to begin tomeet NJ state-mandated requirements," hesaid.
Davis also calls 2012 "a year of serviceto our residents." He said the variousboards and commisions and people thatserved on committees, "essentially all of ourvolunteers," did an excellent service to res-idents.
"Thank you for your service," he said."You have done well this year in serving
the needs of Chester," he added.This year the employees and many vol-
unteers also went "above and beyond" inoffering service to the community.
He said they worked to meet their needsduring this time of turmoil.
"When (storm) Sandy came to town, allemployees and many volunteers served inone way or another as we opened a warm-ing station in our municipal offices follow-ing the devastation from the hurricane," hesaid.
"They helped our residents find theshowers in our building, making coffee and
quesadillas, listening to their stories andtheir concerns. My thanks to all the volun-teers and employees that stood tall when the
need was great," he added.The DPW and police department also
deserve a 'thank you' for their great effortsduring the storm, and in its aftermath.
He said, the DPW and police served bykeeping our streets open during the storm toallow other first responders to attend totransformer fires, live electric lines, andother emergency calls. Subsequently, in theensuing weeks after the storm the DPW"diligently worked to bring our town backto normal by clearing away the stormdebris, chipping the branches, removinglarge trees and generally getting our bor-ough back to normal."
Davis also said the area businesses andchurches did an excellent deed by dedicat-
ing their efforts toward serving the commu-nity. Finally, the churches and businessesthat opened their doors "both warmed ourhearts and fed those in need(myself includ-ed)." "My greatet appreciation for all thatwas done," he said.
This was all much appreciated by theresidents of the borough.
Davis said that as he reviews the year2012 in Chester Borough, I can proudly saywe have met storm Sandy and we havemade it through. Chester Borough Came
together as neighbors should in times ofgreat need and we are better for it," Davissaid.

SPECIALIZING IN INFERTILITY IN FEMALES & MALES
Deborah Torrance,Dipl. Ac., C.A.
If headlines are any indication of what's hot and what's
not, it's easy to believe that infertility treatment is strict-
ly a modern day science, made possible solely through
the courtesy of high-tech medicine.
But as good as modern science is, many couples trying
to get pregnant find themselves turning to an age-old treat-
ment for help -- one so steeped in tradition it's about as far
from life in the 21st century as one can get. That treatment
is Acupuncture, and today, even high-tech reproductive spe-
cialists are looking to the somewhat mysterious world of
Chinese Medicine to help those fertility patients for whom
western medicine alone is not quite enough.Many of our patients come to us because they have gone
through one or more failed IUIs and IVFs (in-vitro fertil-
ization) treatments to no avail. Others come because their
reproductive Dr. suggested acupuncture because they know
that acupuncture can help increase the success of their treat-
ment, over and above what the protocols alone can accom-
plish. Other patients come to Skylands Acupuncture
because they dont want to use the drugs at all to conceive.
We have had tremendous success with either decision.
Come to see us for a visit and see all the baby pictures and
read the letters from all our happy parents.
Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese medicine treatmentthat relies on the painless but strategic placement of tiny
needles into a "grid-like" pattern that spans the body, from
head to toe. The needles are used to stimulate certain key
"energy points" believed to regulate spiritual, mental, emo-
tional, and physical balance. And, for many women, it's
often just what the doctor ordered.
"It can allow you to cross the line from infertile to fertile
by helping your body function more efficiently, which in
turn allows other, more modern reproductive treatments,
like IVF, to also work more efficient ly," says James Dillard,
MD, assistant clinical professor, Columbia University
College of Physicians and Surgeons, and clinical adviser toColumbia's Rosenthal Center for Complementary and
Alternative Medicine.
Indeed, in a study of 160 women, published April 2002
in the reproductive journal Fertility and Sterility, a group of
German researchers found that adding acupuncture to the
traditional IVF treatment protocols substantially increased
pregnancy success.
In this study one group of 80 patients received two, 25-
minute acupuncture treatments -- one prior to having fertil-
ized embryos transferred into their uterus, and one directly
afterwards. The second group of 80, who also underwent
embryo transfer, received no acupuncture treatments.
The result: While women in both groups got pregnant,
the rate was significantly higher in the acupuncture group -
- 34 pregnancies, compared with 21 in the women who
received IVF alone.
But increasing the odds of IVF is not the only way
acupuncture can help. Acupuncture works effectively as astand-alone medicine for Infertility and does work to stim-
ulate egg production in women who can't -- or don't want to
-- use fertility medications or spend exorbitant amounts of
money to help them get pregnant.
A study showed that when you compare the pregnancy
rates for an egg producing drug such as clomid to acupunc-
ture treatments alone, the rates are equal a 50% chance of
pregnancy in 3 5 months for general patient to those not
undergoing IVF.
How Acupuncture Works
Although acupuncture is fast becoming an accepted fer-
tility protocol, not everyone agrees on how -- or why -- itworks in the Western World.
According to the Traditional Chinese medicine explana-
tion, acupuncture stimulates and moves Qi (pronounced
"Chee") a form of life energy that ancient wisdom says
must flow through the body unhampered from head to toe,
24/7. When it does not flow unimpeded pain or illness can
occur. Infertility can arise from restricted Qi flow, which
can cause blood deficiency, liver Qi stasis and a host of
other conditions contributing to the inability to conceive.
In addition to restoring the flow of Qi, Acupuncture has
a calming, restorative effect that promotes an overall sense
of well-being and ultimately helps the body to conceive.By placing needles into specific acupuncture points linked
to the reproductive organs, hormones become normalized
and often there is an increase in the number of follicles;
improves ovarian function; increases blood flow to the
uterus; and diminishes the chances of miscarriage.
A slightly more Western way of looking at the effects of
The Ancient Art Of Infertility TreatmentsAcupuncture points less to the mystical Qi and moretowards the solid science of brain chemistry. In studies
published in the journal Fertility and Sterility in 2002, Dr.
Chang, along with noted Cornell University reproductive
endocrinologist Zev Rosenwaks, MD, found a clear link
between Acupuncture treatment and the brain hormones
involved in conception.
More specifically their research noted that acupuncture
increases production of endorphins, the body's natural "feel
good" brain chemical that also plays a role in regulating the
menstrual cycle.
Chang says acupuncture also appears to have a neuro-endocrine effect, impacting a three-way axis between the
two areas of the brain involved with hormone production
(the hypothalamus, the pituitary glands and the ovaries, aka
as the HPO Axis), a constellation that ultimately impacts
egg production and possibly ovulation.
In still another research paper published in the journal
Medical Acupuncture in 2000, Sandra Emmons, MD, assis-
tant professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Oregon
Health Sciences University, reports that acupuncture may
directly impact the number of egg follicles available for fer-
tilization in women undergoing IVF.
"My guess is that acupuncture is changing the blood sup-ply to the ovaries, possibly dilating the arteries and increas-
ing blood flow, so that ultimately, the ovaries are receiving
greater amounts of hormonal stimulation," says Emmons,
who also uses acupuncture in her traditional medical prac-
tice.
Chang says acupuncture may also help when the lining
of the uterus is too weak to sustain a pregnancy -- a prob-
lem that is also known to increase the risk of chronic mis-
carriage. By increasing blood flow to this area, the lining
may be better able to absorb the nutrients and hormones
necessary to help it grow strong enough to hold onto an
implanted embryo, says Chang.Resourced from WebMD

dents to attend the budget meetings as well as the board ofeducation budget meetings.
"They're open," he said, adding that, "They're very infor-mal," and that the opinion of residents is very much valued.
In additional budgetary news, he said that Washington
Township was recently selected as a "model community" forshared services, by the State of New Jersey. He said that cur-rently the township's shared services arrangements are bring-ing in approximately $500,000 annually in revenue to themunicipality.
He said the township committee will continue to worksmarter and more efficiently with the surrounding communi-ties to consolidate operations to save money, adding that thereis no need for the duplication in services. A shared servicesmeeting has already been scheduled for this month.
Short also said in his speech that there will be some majorpersonnal changes in 2013. Administrator Debbie Burd andPolice Chief Michael Bailey have announced their intentions
to retire this year."We will be very diligent in selecting replacement person-nel for these positions," he said.
Some goals for 2013 will be the continued paving of road-ways; purchasing of generators for the municipal building andother municipal facilities; purchasing of digital sign boards foremergency situations; upgrading of communication systems(radio equipment was purchased so the department of publicworks and the police department can better communicate);creating public access and trails to township municipal openspace/recreation parcels; completing the downtown commer-cial sidewalks; and looking into the possible relocation of theLong Valley Fire Department to perhaps a better facility. Short
said they will look at available land that will have good park-ing possibilities and better access to the roads and the rest ofthe municipality that they cover.
Short also noted that 2013 is the 275th Anniversary ofWashington Township, and monthly events have been sched-uled throughout the year. In addition, plans are currently beingworked on for a festival, parade, and a fireworks display inSeptember.
Short also noted that storm Sandy "reminded us of how
humble we are to nature's forces." The continued interruptionof power and prolonged power outages "will not be tolerated,"he said.
Short said at the meeting that he would be giving testimo-ny at a Board of Public Utilites meeting on Jan. 3, and that hewould also be meeting privately with Jersey Central Power &Light representatives on January 10th to discuss power issuesand how these may be mitigated in the future. Short said hereceived valuable input from the public, DPW, police, emer-gency services, and OEM (Office of EmergencyManagement) representatives and will relate these ideas to getpositive results.
He said he will also concentrate heavily on communication
issues as well as expanding the township CERT team(Civilian Emergency Response Team). This will help restorepower much faster, he said.
Short said all this is very important because we have to letpeople know "what is going on." He said township residentslost cell phone and internet capabilities during Sandy and itsaftermath. He added, however, that "we're one of the fewcommunities in the county that has a CERT team," and notedthat the township needs to be better prepared with respect tocommunication and facilites. He said that residents can alsobe better prepared by having food, supplies, cash andmedecine.
Short said, "I am proud of how our community came
together during the power outages that followed HurricaneSandy," and added that township OEM, DPW, police, fire, andfirst aid squad officials "performed brilliantly," as did our
CERT team and volunteers."But most of all, I am most proud of our residents," Short
said, adding that "they opened their homes to neighbors, fam-ily, and complete strangers in a time of need." He said foodwas offered as well as sanitary facilites and shower facilities.He said, "Volunteers stepped up, churches opened their
doors."Short said St. Luke's Church offered over 1,000 meals at
no charge; neighbors removed downed trees from homes andto allow for access; meals were served by community groups;and generators were shared with others. He said the commu-nity came together and "we all survived."
He said despite all the preparation, "we must be more pre-pared in the future. We must all take more personal responsi-bility." Many residents also became aware of the local radiostation (WRNJ) which provided updated communicationsover the 14 days of power outages, he said, adding that it isnot a matter of asking will we have prolonged power outagesin the future, but rather when. Short said his committment is
that township committee will take the necessary positive stepsfor better communication and preparedness in the future.
He said the township will have power outages again,adding that "we live in a rural part of Morris County....but wehave to be prepared for them."
"I want to thank all the volunteers that dedicate their per-sonal time for the benefit of the community," he said, addingthat these individuals are not the complainers, but rather thefolks that leave their own families to help others in time ofneed. On behalf of the elected officials of WashingtonTownship, "I want to wish you a healthy, happy and prosper-ous 2013."
There were also two new police offcers hired, Daniel
Parrish, of Wharton, and Derek Heymer, of Blairstown, whowere sworn in at the Jan. 2 meeting. Fire department and firstaid squad officials were sworn in as well.

Lunch with A Crunch
There was a time when an apple was
the last place you would look to
experiment with new flavors in the
produce section. But today, there are nearly
100 commercial varieties to choose from,
each with unique characteristics to tickle
your taste buds.
One new variety called Opal is grown in
Washington and offers a complex flavor
that starts sweet and finishes with a slight
tang. Vibrantly yellow and super crunchy,these apples are perfect for fresh salads and
side dishes. And, unlike many types of
apples, Opals naturally resist oxidation after
cutting, which keeps them fresh and deli-
cious for a lunch prepared before you head
out for work, or snacking through the day.
An added benefit is that when you buy
Opal apples, you are helping to fund the
Youth Make a Difference Initiative grants,
which provide funding for youth programs
serving communities across the United
States.
For a lunch with a crunch, try adding
apples in fun and delicious ways:
Dip apple slices in your favorite nut
butter.
Add thin slices of apple to your deli
meat sandwich, or layer them with PB and J
on raisin bread.
Make your own cracker stackers with
whole grain crackers, your favorite cheese,
smoked turkey, and apple slices.
Add apples to a delicious salad, such asthis spinach and apple salad with dried cher-
ries, which is filled with fiber, vitamin C,
vitamin K, iron and antioxidants.

Initiative.
