Retention Oil Burners
Every non-flame retention burner, and most
pre-1985 first generation flame retention burners, should be replaced. Boilers or furnaces
installed after 1980 will run much better with
a new burner.
If a new boiler or furnace was installed before
1970, it is better to replace the system than to
just put in a new burner. New burners with
their white-hot flame may “kill” the old unit
quicker.

Methodist Nursery School Celebrates Mother’s Day
The Pre K children of the Methodist Nursery School celebrated Mother’s Day by performing
several songs to the delight of their moms and friends. After singing “We Really Love Our
Mothers,” each child presented their mom with flowers, a keepsake handprint on a ceramic
plaque, and plants they grew from seeds in hand-decorated flowerpots. The Methodist Nursery
School, located on Division Avenue in Hasbrouck Heights, is in its 38th year, and offers early
childhood programs for three, four and five-year-olds with individual classrooms for art, music,

How to Choose a Checking Account
For most people, the centerpiece of their relationship
with their bank is a checking
account. Studies have shown
that consumers overwhelmingly define “their” bank as the
institution where their checking accounts are held, not the
bank where they may have a
mortgage or CD. It’s no wonder
banks throw a sizeable amount
of money toward attracting and
retaining consumer checking
accounts.
Banks know one way to
get you in the door to open a
checking account is to lure you
in with gifts. In the old days
they used toasters; today’s gifts
are less domesticated -- coolers, camping and beach gear
to name a few. The freebies get
Farmers’ Market

The Hasbrouck Heights

and continue every Tuesday
from Noon to 6:00 p.m. until

This Farmers’ Market is
scheduled to host about a dozen
vendors. George is back! Additionally, many new vendors

Rebbecca Amish Baked Goods,

According to Chamber
President Ray Vorisek, Hasbrouck Heights businesses and
community organizations are
invited to set up a free table

Ray at 201-288-5464 for more
information.
During Farmers’ Market

permitted to take advantage of
“Sidewalk Sale” opportunities
and set up tables in front of
their stores. ###

better as the stakes get higher.
Banks in search of “total
relationships” with customers are offering free checking
accounts with loan discounts,
investment bonuses, insurance
incentives and other financial
sweeteners. Because banks
are offering discounts or freebies when you have multiple
accounts, you can use any
banking product you are considering, as leverage to snag
something else you want from
the bank -- say, a higher CD
rate. The more business you do
with one bank, the more likely
they are to sweeten the deal.
Kearny Federal Savings
Bank has enhanced their existing relationship program,
which currently offers 22 financial benefits, by adding
“lifestyle” savings as well. By
opening a StarBanking Plus
account at KFS, you’ll receive
free checking with interest,
free wire transfers, fee rebates
up to $10 per month on foreign
ATM transactions, bumpedup CD rates, reduced rates on
new home equity loans and
much more! And if all those
free services don’t save you
enough, they’ve combined
those fi nancial services with
GenGold®, where you’ll save
even more money on “lifestyle”
services like travel, shopping
and restaurants!
It’s easy to qualify for
StarBanking Plus. All you need
is a Kearny Federal Savings
Star Checking account with
direct deposit and a combined
balance of $20,000 or more in
your savings and checking account. If you’re over 55, you can
be a SuperStar and receive the
same benefits with a combined
balance of just $10,000.
Visit one of KFS’s 26 convenient branches for complete
details, or call toll free 1-800273-3406. With Kearny Federal
Savings’ StarBanking Plus program, you’ll never need another
checking account! ###

Public Libraries Offer Immeasurable Savings
The public library has always been a place to save
money. Where can you go to
get the latest New York Times
best sellers, the hottest music
CDs, the latest movie releases
on DVD, find your favorite
magazine and stock up on audiobooks for those long road
trips without having to buy
them? And these days libraries
offer even more activities and
services for less. Consider the
following facts:
•
Computer Access:
Many people find that they
need access to a computer;
rather than purchasing their
own and maintaining one, they
save money by using the free
wireless service.
•
Books: Think of the
saving possibilities of borrowing instead of buying your
reading materials. Your local
library has access to thousands
of titles and has established
lending agreements with neighboring libraries to share resources. According to the latest
survey by the Department of
Labor, a U.S. consumer spends
an average of about $120 on
books each year.
• Magazines and Newspapers: A number of people I
know have cancelled most of
their periodical subscriptions
and get their reading materials
from the library instead. This
is a great way to reduce the
amount of paper being sent to
your home.
• DVDs, CDs, and Other Media: Save on rental fees
for movies, music, audiobooks,
and more by borrowing them
from the library for free. If
you have not visited your local
library for a while, I bet you’d
be surprised by the incredible
multimedia collections they
have established.
•
Entertainment and
Space: With sum mer just
around the corner, libraries
are getting geared up to offer
exciting reading programs and
events for all ages, including
everything from author-led
book discussions and music recitals to playtime programs for
children. And if you’re looking
for an inexpensive place to hold
a community event, check with
your library, many have meeting rooms available.
•
Save on Utilities: Li-
braries have taken on many
roles, why not make them the
center of your world to spend
time at all year round. That
way you can turn down the heat
or AC at home and save.
•
Volunteer Opportunities and Tax-Deductible Donations: Most local libraries have
their own “friends” groups that
are involved in and support
library activities. Volunteering at a library can be a great
way to meet new people and
earn community service hours.
Your gently used books are
welcomed and get a second
home at book sales. Often,
contributions to The Friends
are tax-deductible.

Strawberry Moon
The June full moon appears on Saturday, June 26,
2010, at 11:32. It is called the
“Full Strawberry Moon.”
According to the Farmer’s
Almanac, this name was universal to every Algonquin tribe.
The name reflects the relatively short season for harvesting strawberries that comes
each year during June. Other
names include the “Full Hot
Moon,” or in Europe, the “Full
Rose Moon.”
The Native American Indians of the northern and eastern
United States kept track of
the seasons by giving a name
to each recurring full moon.
European settlers followed the
custom. ###

HH Garden Club Beautifying The Boulevard
Beautiful flowering planters have adorned The Boulevard for the past four years.
On Saturday, May 15, 2010,
at the Plant Road DPW yard,
the Hasbrouck Heights Garden Club and the Hasbrouck
Heights DPW prepared 60
fiberglass planters with mulch,
soil and plantings. Each planter
has 13 different types of plants.
Plants include: Canna,
Coleus, “El Brighto,” Dahlia
“Grande Tesie,” Pillar Geraniums, Coleus, “Gay’s Delight” Verbena, “Light Blue,”
Ipomoea, “Chillin Lemonade,”
Osteospermum, “Orange Symphony,” and accented with
brightly colored Petunias.
On Monday morning, May
17th, the planters were put into
position along The Boulevard
by the DPW. The DPW has
agreed to water the plants during the season.
Through the summer, students from the HH Jr. High
Beta Club will adopt and tend
the planters for community
service credit. The club advisor
is Jane Gay.
Keep Wood-Ridge Beautiful
The “Keep Wood-Ridge
Beautiful” committee will hold
its 11th Annual Downtown

name and how many adult
and children’s shirts should be
ordered. For more information
call 201-531-0259. ###
Mosquito Season is Abuzz
Standing water means you
could be raising mosquitoes!
Many generations of mosquitoes can breed right in your
own yard. All mosquitoes
need water to complete their
life cycle.
Yard and home checklist:
• Get rid of old tires, tin
cans, buckets, drums, bottles,
or any water holding containers
• Fill in or drain any low
places (puddles, ruts) in yard
• Keep drains, ditches,
and culverts clean of weeds
and trash so water will drain
properly
• Cover trash containers to
keep out rain water
• Repair leaky pipes and
outdoor faucets
• Empty plastic wading
pools at least once a week and
store indoors when not in use
• Make sure your backyard
pool is properly cared for while
on vacation
• Fill in tree rot holes and
hollow stumps that hold water
with sand or concrete
• Change the water in bird
baths and plant pots or drip
trays at least once a week
• Keep gutters clean and
free of debris and leaves. ###
According to Ann Lustberg, “The Boulevard in Bloom
beautification project adds
visual interest and aesthetics
to The Boulevard streetscape
from May until September.”
After the summer, the
DPW will collect the flower
pots and store them for the
winter.
The estimated annual cost
for this program is $4,000 and
is funded by donations. Work
is done by “Green Thumb”
volunteers.
Sponsor recognition is
located on the first floor of the
Municipal Complex.
The Hasbrouck Heights
Chamber of Commerce, in cooperation with the HH Garden
Club, invites businesses and
residents to sponsor a flower
pot with planting to be placed
along The Boulevard during
2010.
Donations for the 2011 program are welcome. Cost is $175
and includes the purchase of a
fiberglass pot, soil, mulch and
plantings. Cost is $40 to replenish the planting of an existing
pot. Call Maria at 201-288-3111
or Ann at 201-288-3956 for
more information. ###

and yet another wants some
“courage.” As always, there
are theme songs, puppets, skits,
Bible verses and stories, games
and snacks!
Beginning June 1, you may
register your children by calling 201-288-4139 X17. Leave a

Students See Recycling in Action
On April 23, 2010, 96 Second Grade students from the
Allendale Elementary School
toured the Cinelli Iron and
Metal Company as part of
Earth Day.
They began the tour of
the Hackensack facility (nonferrous division) by standing
on a truck scale for a collective
weight of 7,260 pounds and
were impressed that if they
were aluminum cans, they
would be worth $6,115.
Every student then received their very own hard
hat and were placed into tour
groups. Before entering the
facility, they were cautioned
about safety procedures and
provided an overview on recycling.
The first station was about
sorting of metals followed by
a demonstration of metal fabrication.

Lodi High School Interact Club Becomes Official
After three years of operating as an “unofficial” Interact
Club, Lodi High School received its formal Charter on
April 29, 2010.
During a ceremony in the
Lodi High School auditorium
attended by several Mid-Bergen Rotary Club members,
Interact Club advisor Aimee
Cook received the Charter, and
about 125 students received
their Interact Membership
cards. Refreshments were then
served in the cafeteria.
According to Ms. Cook,
“In conjunction with our sponsoring Rotary Club 7490, the
Club has been raising funds
for the Gift of Life Foundation.
Most recently, our Club
participated in the Gift of Life
Walk-a-Thon at Bergen Community College, where we
raised over $600.”
The Mid-Bergen Rotary
Club has also sponsored Interact Clubs at Bergen County
Technical School and WoodRidge High School.
Interact is a Rotary sponsored service club for ages
14 to 18. The program gives
young people an opportunity
to participate in fun, meaningful projects while developing
leadership skills and meeting
new friends.
The Mid-Bergen Rotary
held their first meeting on February 8, 1962 and was originally
chartered as the Teterboro Rotary Club, Bergen County, NJ.
As the 1960’s progressed,
the Club grew with members
from the surrounding towns of
Hasbrouck Heights, Wood-Ridge
and South Hackensack, thereby
prompting the name change to
Mid-Bergen Rotary Club.
Since 1975, Rotary International’s ‘Gift of Life’ program
has benefited over 5,000 children worldwide. The program
includes more than 70 participating hospitals worldwide
— 50 in the United States.
Participating hospitals and
physicians donate their services and skills to save the
lives of suffering children,
who otherwise would not be
able to afford the life saving
surgery in their home country. ###

HHFD Annual Inspection
With personnel in full
dress uniform and equipment
clean and polished, The Hasbrouck Heights Fire Department conducted its Annual
Inspection, at 7:00 p.m., on
Saturday, May 8, 2010. Due to
high winds, the equipment was
positioned outside and the brief
ceremony took place inside the
firehouse bays.
The program began with
Firefighter Thomas Rubino
calling the Department to attention, the presentation of the
Honor Guard, and the Pledge
of Allegiance.
HHFD Chaplain, Deacon
Vincent De Fedele, provided
the invocation. Mayor Rose
Heck and Fire Commissioner
David Gonzalez made comments.
Fire Chiefs from WoodRidge inspected the Department’s equipment -- and they
did a thorough job.
Local officials and the
public also inspected the equipment and met with the men and
women who serve.
The Hasbrouck Heights
Fire Department operates with
70 volunteer members, including EMS and Juniors.
The Hasbrouck Heights
Fire Department has a Junior
Squad for those between 16
and 18 years of age who offer
on-scene support, but are not
permitted to enter burning
buildings.
Every firefighter must receive 25 weeks of basic firefighter training and every EMT
receives 140 weeks of basic
training.
Many members continue
extensive advanced training
in the areas of search and
rescue, vehicle operation, incident command, hazardous
materials, first responder, mass
decontamination, etc. The Department conducts training on
a regular basis.
The Department is contracted to provide fire and ambulance service to the Borough
of Teterboro, and has done so
for over 60 years. In 2009, they
responded to 1,558 ambulance
calls and 541 fire calls and other

Its rolling stock includes
two pumpers, 110 ft. ladder,
heavy rescue truck, crash/foam

Vacation-proof Your Home
An Overview
Most communities across
the United States will experience a 10 to 18 percent increase
in home burglaries during
the months of June, July and
August, with most tending to
occur in August.
The majority of home and
apartment burglaries occur
during the daytime when most
people are away at work or
school.
Statistics suggest that
70% of the burglars use some
amount of force to enter a
dwelling, but their preference
is to gain easy access through
an open door or window.
Ordinary household tools
like screwdrivers, channel-lock
pliers, small pry bars, and small
hammers are most often used
for break-ins.
Although home burglaries
may seem random in occurrence, they actually involve
a selection process. Burglars
choose an unoccupied home
with the easiest access, the
greatest amount of cover, and
with the best escape routes.
Burglaries are committed
most often by young males under 25 years of age looking for
items that are small, expensive,
and can easily be converted to
cash.
Jewelry, guns, watches,
laptop computers, VCRs, CD
players, and other small electronic devices are high on the
list. Quick cash is needed for
living expenses or drugs.
The average loss per residential burglary hovers around
the $1,300 mark.
Don’t Advertise
Burglars are always on the
prowl for a house that looks
temporarily unoccupied, so
don’t “advertise” your home as
an easy target.
Light, time, and noise are a
homeowner’s greatest weapons
--- if it takes a burglar more
than four or five minutes to
break into your home, they’ll
move on.
Practical Tips
Whether going down the
shore for a long weekend or
taking that long planned vacation trip, the Moonachie Police
Department offers some practical steps to protect your home
from theft and damage while
you’re away.
• Notify the police if you
are going to be gone longer
than a week as they will often
schedule extra drive-bys.
• Have a friend or neighbor
collect the mail, newspapers
and fliers.
• Never leave an outgoing
answering machine message
saying you’re away. Set your
machine for five rings (answering too soon or too late
indicates nobody is at home).
• Leave the light on in the
kitchen. The kitchen tends to
have lights on the most.
• Put lights on timers in two
or three rooms so the lights go
on and off at various times.
• Timers should be used
on a daily basis. By setting
up a routine, your neighbors
can become suspicious when
your normally lighted home
becomes dark.
• Use light-timers near the
front and back windows with
the curtains drawn. The timing pattern should simulate
occupancy.
• Timers can be used to
turn on a radio or television.
Turn your stereo on to a talk
station to create a more realistic impression that someone
is home.
• Outside motion lighting
should be installed high enough
so that the bulbs can’t be unscrewed by a possible intruder.
• Security lights with infrared motion sensors are relatively inexpensive and can
easily replace an exterior porch
light or side door light.
The heat-motion sensor
can be adjusted to detect body
heat and can be programmed to
reset after one minute.
These security lights are
highly recommended for single
family homes.
• Most burglars enter via
the front, back, or garage doors.
Experienced burglars know
that the garage door is usually
the weakest point of entry, followed by the back door. The
garage and back doors also
provide the most cover.
Windows
• Double-check that door
and window locks work properly, especially in older homes
where they may not fit tightly
any longer.
• Windows left unlocked
and open are entered at a much
higher rate than doors.
• An open window, visible
from the street or alley, may be
the sole reason for your home to
be selected by a burglar. Basement and ground floor windows
are more susceptible to breakins for obvious reasons.
• Upper floor windows become attractive if they can be
accessed from a stairway, tree,
fence, balcony or deck.
• Make sure the AC unit is
properly secured so a burglar
can’t push it in.
Doors
Experienced burglars can
tell from the street if a door is
easily breachable. Install deadbolt locks and make sure the
Be sure to make a
check-list of things to
do before you walk out
the door. Check windows, turn on timers,
disconnect appliances,
set alarm, etc.
strike plate is securely fastened
to the door.
• Door glass can be covered
with a film or glazing that is
resistant to breaking.
• Pull out the plug on your
electric overhead garage door
opener. This will disable the
unit and prevent anyone tampering with the frequencies and
gaining entry.
Street Assessment
Crop shrubs and, if necessary, trim trees. If your yard
is neat there is nowhere for a
burglar to stand or hide when
breaking a window.
• Examine your home and
make sure that valuables are not
visible from the street.
• Partially close all curtains
or blinds to ensure that nobody
can look in. Leave upstairs
curtains open while first floor
drapes shut.
Padlock All Gates
Make your backyard inaccessible. Padlocking your
gates makes getting into the
backyard more difficult (not
impossible), but it seriously
hinders getting out while carrying items like stereos and
computers. This difficulty level
serves as a strong deterrent.
Obliterate Alternate
Methods of Entry
Put away or chain up ladders, barbecues, garden tools,
patio furniture and other items
that could aid in a burglary or
could be stolen.
Car in Driveway
Park your car in the driveway and have a neighbor move
it so it looks like someone is
home. Offer your neighbor a
place to park.
to keep the smash and grab
burglar, nosey kids, dishonest
babysitter or housekeeper from
gaining access to important
documents, small valuable
items, and personal property.
Home safes need to be
anchored into the floor or permanent shelving. Install it away
from the master bedroom or
closet.
• Include in it the video
tape of your possessions.
• Use the safe routinely.
• Protect the safe code and
change it occasionally.
Alarm Systems
Alarm systems deter burglaries because they increase
the potential and fear of being
caught and arrested by the
police.
Home and apartment burglars will usually bypass a
property with visible alarm
signs.
• Don’t write your alarm
passcode on or near the alarm
keypad.
• Alarm systems can monitor for fire as well as burglary.
• All systems should have
an audible horn or bell to be
effective. Audible alarms
should be programmed to reset automatically after one or
two minutes. The criminal got
the message and will be long
gone but your neighbors will
have to listen to the alarm bell,
sometimes for hours, until it is
shut off.
• Home alarms, like car
alarms, are generally ignored
except for a brief glance.
• Instruct your neighbor
how to respond to an alarm bell.
Property Identification
Engrave your driver’s license, not your social security number, on televisions,
stereos, computers, and small
electronic appliances so police
can identify your stolen items
if recovered.
• Patrol cars are equipped
with computers which can easily trace driver’s licenses.
• Photograph your valuables and make a list of the
make, model, and serial numbers. Keep this list in a safety
deposit box or with a relative.
Include receipts of the larger
items. This provides proof
when filing insurance claims.
• Photocopy important
documents and the contents of
your wallet.
Extra Precautions
The Moonachie Police
Department also offers these
precautions:
• Refrain from carrying
anything with you that will
create physical, financial or
emotional hardship if lost or
stolen.
• Leave extra credit cards,
keys and expensive jewelry at
home.
• Carry traveler’s checks.
(They are replaced if lost or
stolen).
• Leave prescription medicines in the original containers
marked with the prescription
numbers.
• Leave your passports and
valuables in a safety deposit
box at your hotel.
• Don’t put your home address on baggage tags. Use your
business address instead.
• Carry a list of all credit
cards and bankcards with you.
Don’t keep it in your purse or
wallet. (You may need the list
to report the loss or theft of
these cards).
• When you check in at
your hotel, don’t give your
home address verbally. Also,
if you are a single woman, caution the front desk clerk not to
announce your room number.
• Before you go shopping
or sightseeing in a strange city,
check with the hotel concierge
for directions to your destination and the safest mode of
transportation to get you there.
The Moonachie Police Department wishes you an enjoyable and safe vacation. And if
you are driving, don’t forget to
buckle up! ###

Real Estate Insight
Fitness Tips
By Mary Ellen Courtney
By Joann Glussich
House Isn’t Selling?
What’s the Reason
When I was in school, I
was always among the last to be
picked for sports. Coordination
has never been my strong suit.
So I know how homeowners
feel when their home isn’t selling and other homes seem to
be. ‘Why me?’
The real estate market
is sometimes as cruel as the
school yard these days. The
reasons are often simple.
The real question is: Can you
change it? Let’s look at the
main reasons….
1. Your Photos Are Terrible
Have you actually seen the
photos your Realtor took? If
they look like they were taken
by a 6 year old tilting his head
while standing in the dark, then
you have a problem. Photos
should help sell the house.
And if the photos are scaring
away buyers, then it’s time to
insist your agent take different
photos. Buyers are spending
hours online looking at photos
and if yours look unattractive,
believe me, they won’t be attracting any buyers.
2. Your Home Is Inaccessible
In order to buy your home,
people need to be able to see
it. This may seem like a nobrainer but I have actually
seen a listing recently where
viewings were made available
only on Saturdays, from 12PM
to 2 PM. Or where sellers follow buyers around the house?
Or those who don’t plow their
walks/driveways after a snowstorm? Or who leave snarling
dogs in the living room?
Buyers don’t need to have
unfettered access to your home
but, by the same token, every
effort should be made to let
people in with a reasonable
amount of notice.
3. Your Home Is Cluttered
How many times have I
heard, “They’re not buying
my stuff. They’re buying the
house. They can decorate it any
way they want after they buy
it.” It often seems silly to home
sellers that home buyers today
cannot look past all their stuff.
Maybe it’s all the HGTV
shows, but most buyers will
automatically focus on your
stuff if it’s in the way of them
seeing your house. And, if they
really can’t see your home, they
won’t buy it.
4. There Are No Buyers
For Your Home
The unfortunate quirks of
a sputtering recovery, while
some segments of the market
are buzzing, others are dead.
Even when the tax credit was
available for fi rst-time home
buyers, the upper middle and
high ends of the real estate
market had slowed. Financing
for investors has also been hard
to come by.
5. Price, Price, Price
Is your house priced well
for condition, location and
what’s comparable on the market? It’s not enough to look at
prior sales – it’s crucial to know
what else is on the market that
buyers these days would be
looking at and price your home
accordingly: at or below these
homes (your competition!).

The End of
Food Temptation
W hy Does Temptation
Always Win?
We live in a society where
food temptations are everywhere.
• Walk through a store
and you’ll see the unhealthy
food items displayed front and
center.
• Turn on the TV and you’ll
be assaulted with commercials
for fattening foods.
• Open a magazine and
you’ll notice glossy pin-ups of
sugary snacks.
• Go down the street and
you’ll have restaurant signs
clamoring for your attention.
In addition to the abundance of tempting edibles, you
also have deeply ingrained
positive associations with indulging.
You treat tempting food as
a reward, stress relief or comfort. You allow tempting food
to become a habit.
It’s Your Turn to Win
Temptation doesn’t need to
have the upper hand anymore.
It’s time to fight back using
your most powerful asset: your
brain.
Your mind is an amazing
thing. Once it is made up about
something it is nearly impossible to change it.
Overcoming temptation is
all about building negative associations in place of existing
positive ones. Use the 2 steps
below to harness the power of
your mind to become stronger
than any temptation.
Step One: Create a Strong
Negative Association with all
the BAD STUFF
If cookies and chips and
burgers are put on a pedestal
in your mind as your favorite
things to eat, then you will
always eat unhealthy and will
continue to gain weight.
What do you dislike about
tempting food?
• It causes weight gain.
• It drains your energy.
• It kills your confidence.
Every time that you encounter tempting food items
focus on your list of negatives.
It’s time to kick those cookies off the pedestal and to put
something healthy in its place.
Step Two: Create a Strong
Positive Association with all
the GOOD STUFF
Now that your mental pedestal has been cleared, put
healthy food items on it. Juicy
fresh fruit, crispy vegetables
and savory lean meats are a
great place to start.
• What do you love about
healthy food?
• It makes you healthy.
• It causes weight loss.
• It boosts your energy.
• It builds your confidence.
• It improves your quality
of life.
Immerse yourself into the
world of healthy food. Browse
the aisles of a natural food
store. Walk through a farmer’s
market. Bring healthy snacks
to work. Clear your kitchen of
anything unhealthy.
Using the technique above,
you will soon find that healthy
food is your favorite food. And
temptation will become a thing
of your past.
The Domino Effect
Regular exercise makes
it easier to eat healthy. Just as
healthy eating makes you more
likely to exercise.
It’s the domino effect.
When you begin to make a
positive change in one area of
your life other areas will soon
follow.
Remember, while nutrition
is vitally important for weight
loss, true results are achieved
through a combination of both
nutrition and challenging, progressive exercise.
Would you like to get that
domino effect started in your
life? Call or email today for
a fitness program that will
quickly transform your body.

Drug Induced Sunburn
By William Zachok, RPh
As the days grow longer, thoughts begin to turn to
outdoor fun, whether on the
beach, in the mountains, or
in local backyards and parks.
An unfortunate reality of these
summer activities is sunburn.
Studies show that up to 4 in 10
adults are sunburned each year,
with the resulting pain and
discomfort, lost work time, and
increased risk of skin cancer
well documented.
While most sunburns can
be attributed to a straightforward unprotected, over exposure to sunlight, it is important
to consider other potential
factors, such as diseases or

medications, which may affect
a person’s sensitivity to light.
Systemic lupus and dermatomyositis are medical conditions associated with skin
eruptions made worse by sun
exposure. Lupus is more common in younger women, with
the affected skin described as
mild, patchy redness. Dermatomyositis is more common in
the elderly, the rash most often
appearing around the eyes and
back of the hands.
Medications can affect a
person’s response to sunlight
in two ways, either as a toxic
reaction or an allergic reaction.
Phototoxic reactions are more
common, usually develop soon
after exposure to sunlight, and
appear only in the sun-exposed
areas. Common medicines
associated with phototoxicity
include antibiotics such as tetracycline or ciprofloxacin, and
diuretics such as furosemide.
Photoallergic reactions are
less common, occur 1 to 3 days
after sun exposure, and may
spread to areas not exposed
to direct sunlight. The most
common medicines that can
produce these reactions are the
diabetic agents glyburide and
glipizide.
Prevention is the key to reducing your sunburn risk. Not
all patients with these diseases,
or those taking these medicines, will develop increased
sun sensitivity. Take notice of
the labels on your prescription
bottles to see if your medicine
increases sunburn risk, and
consult your pharmacist with
any questions. Limit sun exposure when rays are strongest,
typically between 11 am and 4
pm, and use a sunscreen with
a minimum SPF of 15. Severe
sunburns can lead to infections,
so be sure to contact your physician if you experience blistering, pain, fever, or chills.
With a little planning you’ll
be able to enjoy the warm
weather without risking your
health.

Too Much Sun is Bad
for Your Skin
Understanding UVA, UVB, SPF
Basking and working in
the sun, without protecting
your skin can lead to wrinkles,
premature aging and, worst of
all, skin cancer.
Sun damage is also responsible for leathery-looking
skin, broken capillaries, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation,
or age spots.
While people are more
aware of the sun’s harmful
effects, many do not protect
themselves or use sunscreens.
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation
that affects the skin is classified as UVA and UVB.
UVA is the longest of the
UV. It can penetrate into the
deeper layers of the skin and
plays a major role in skin aging and wrinkling. UVA penetrates glass and clouds.
UVB is responsible for
burning, tanning, accelerating
the skin aging and also plays a
key role in the development of
skin cancer.
UVB varies by season,
location and time of day. The
most intense amount of UVB
hits the U.S. between 10:00
a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
Try not to schedule outdoor activity between these
hours and seek playgrounds
where shade - from trees or
awnings - is plentiful. If your
child has to be outdoors during
these hours, be sure they’re
protected from the sun with a
hat, sunglasses, etc.
What is SPF? Sun Protection Factor (SPF) measures
the protection provided by a
sunscreen against UVB.
Higher SPF numbers are
preferable, but SPF measures
protection only from UVB -not UVA rays.
When choosing a sunscreen, select a product that
provides “broad-spectrum”
protection for both UVA and
UVB.
If you are going to the
beach or pool, make sure it
is water-resistant and doesn’t
wash off in the water. Use an
SPF of 15 or higher.
When to apply sunscreen
-- Apply sunscreen 20 minutes
before going out into the sun to
give it time to absorb into the
skin. Be generous and regular
-- about 1 ounce every 2 hours,
and more often if you are swimming or perspiring.
Apply sunscreen to the top
of your ears, back of hands,
neck and toes.
Other protection tips:
• Use a hat to shield your
face where sun damage frequently occurs.
• Be aware that the window
glass in cars does not block
all of the sun’s harmful rays,
making the driver’s left side
more prone to sun damage.
Apply sunscreen before long
car rides. ###

DAV National Service Officer Visits VFW 4591
A fully-equipped DAV National Service Office on wheels
was at the VFW Post 4591 on
May 12, 2010, from 9 a.m. to 4
p.m. This annual event, sponsored by DAV Bergen County/

AL Announces Essay Winners
American Legion Post
106 in Hasbrouck Heights has
announced the winners of this
year’s essay contest. They are
Kristen Hohnecker, First Place,
Samantha Guer ra, Second
Place and Samantha Algauer,
Third Place. They are all seniors at Hasbrouck Heights
High School.
All contestants had to
write an essay on the topic
“How Can We Keep Patriotism
Alive.” Mrs. Czekaj, supervisor
of English, collected all the essays and had them reviewed by
a committee of Legionnaires.
The committee was impressed with Ms. Hohnecker’s
remarks -- “Patriotism can be
kept alive by really showing
people how much their country
has given them. Parents should
not solely rely on history teach-
ers to relay the importance of
our country’s past.
They should discuss with
their children and explain how
lucky we are to live in such
a powerful and prosperous
country. Simply raising the
American f lag outside your
house or, nowadays, putting
a bumper sticker on your car
shows support of your country.”
And finally, “By making sure
the next generation realizes
the power and integrity of the
country they live in, we will
continue to portray our deep
appreciation for it, and we will
forever stay united.”
The winners will be given
a monetary award along with
a medal signifying their placement in this contest. Story by

Who Never Came Back
Hasbrouck Heights VFW
Post 4591 and Wood-Ridge
Memorial Post 3616 continued
the tradition with their annual
Poppy Drive during May.
For Veterans in VA hospitals, domiciliaries and in
state Veterans’ homes, who
assemble them -- every day
is “Buddy Poppy Day.” VFW
pays the disabled, needy or
aging Veteran for the work.
Poppy assembly is often used
as a therapy program to provide
exercise for fingers and hands.
All the money contributed
by the public for Buddy Poppies
is used in the cause of Veterans’
welfare, or for the well being of
their needy dependents and the
orphans of Veterans.
About 14 million Buddy
Poppies are distributed annually. The memorial poppy is
never sold, but given in exchange for a contribution. ###

Kiwanis Sponsors Doo Wop Concert
On Thursday, May 6, 2010,
more than eighty residents attended an evening of Doo Wop
Music held at the Municipal
Building. This spring concert
was sponsored by the Kiwanis
Club of Hasbrouck Heights and
Teterboro, and featured the talents of a new a cappella group
called “The Party of Five.”
They sang more than
twenty songs. Many of the
oldies were familiar to the audience. The group harmony was
fantastic.
Doo wop represents a vocal style that includes group
harmony, a wide range of vocal
parts, a simple beat, and simple
lyrics. It was popular when our
world was relatively simple and
our lives were less complicated.
If you are interested in
learning more about Kiwanis,
please call Barbara at 201-2880562. Story by Peter Gallo Jr.

HH Leisure Club Spring Update
On Wednesday, April 21,
2010, members of the Leisure
Club traveled to The Brownstone for a luncheon and to
watch the Ace in the Hole
production, “American Bandstand.”
The show was a fast paced
tribute to TV’s longest running popular music show. The
performers were Joey Arminio
and The Family. They sang and
danced as they portrayed many
of the singers who appeared on
Bandstand. An added attraction was comic, juggler, Jack
Swersie. He has appeared with
such stars as Jay Leno, Joan
Rivers, the Smothers Brothers
and many more. His off beat
comedy style was both very
funny and clean.
At the meeting held on May
12, 2010, representatives from
the Bergen County Sheriff’s
Office were on hand to issue
“Gold Star ID” cards to seniors.
The program provides first
responders with vital medical
information in the event of an
emergency.
The BCSO’s Gold Star
Identification Program is run
in conjunction with local fire
departments, hospitals and
emergency service providers.
Participating senior citizens
are issued a photo identification card, which corresponds
to a file maintained by the
Bergen County Sheriff’s Office’s 24-Hour Operations Unit.
Data kept on file includes a
list of family and emergency
contacts, physician’s contact
information, as well as current
and prior medical conditions.
In the event of an emergency,
or if a participant becomes
incapacitated during a medical
emergency, the Operations Unit
will release his or her emer-
gency contact information to
first responders.
The June 9, 2010 meeting
is the last meeting before the
summer break. President John
Fitzin encourages all members
to attend. He also invites
members to participate in the
many programs available at the
center. President John is always
present at the center. He makes
the coffee for all activities, selects and shows movies twice a
month, runs the monthly bingo
games, purchases the supplies
needed for the daily operation
of the center, takes out and puts
away games, cards, etc., and
does so much more.
Sometimes John is overlooked for his efforts. It is very
hard to find a man like him in
any organization, one who does
so much yet gets very little
credit. Thanks, John! Story by

AARP Learns About the
New Health Care Reform
At the annual meeting to
elect its officers, the Central
Bergen Chapter #418, AARP
learned more about the new
Health Care Reform Act passed
by Congress.
The election took place on
May 14, 2010. The officers for
the 2010-2011 years are President Marie Gallo, 1st Vice President Frank Zabransky, 2nd
Vice President and Assistant
Treasurer David Davidowicz,
Secretary June Raymond and
Treasurer Peter Gallo Jr.
The program for the meeting was presented by Mr. Cosmo Palmisano, a Bergen County Representative for AARP.
He spoke at length on what
the new medical reform will
do for the seniors. Some of the
highlights of his presentation
were:
1. Immediately after its en-
actment, seniors who fall into
the “Donut Hole” will receive
a $250 rebate. Starting in 2011,
seniors will receive a 50% discount on all brand-name drugs
for those in the Donut Hole. By
2020, the Donut Hole will be
eliminated.
2. The Medicare Tr ust
Fund, which is currently projected to run out of money by
2017, will be extended at least
through 2026.
3. Seniors will receive free
preventative services. Starting
in 2011, deductibles, co-payments, and other cost-sharing
for preventative care will be
eliminated.
4. The new law will also
increase Medicare payments to
doctors for primary care, protecting and increasing access to
these vital services for seniors.
5. Seniors will also ben-

efit from better chronic care,
with doctors working together,
through innovations such as
medical homes, to provide
patient-centered help for the
80% of older Americans who
have at least one chronic medical condition, like high blood
pressure, or diabetes.
6. The reform will provide
for affordable long term care,
by creating a new voluntary
long-term care services insurance program.
7. The law will encourage reimbursing health care
providers based on the quality
of health care, rather than its
quantity, taking away incentives to subject seniors to procedures and tests they do not
need. Many other areas of the
new law were discussed.
President Marie reminded
all the members that on June
11th the club will have its annual end of the year luncheon.
The affair will take place at the
Maywood Inn and the cost is
$27.00 per person.
She also invited members
to the 2nd Annual Picnic in

is $12.00 per person. Story by

Reflections
June is a Time of Change
Rev. Joseph Pickard, Vicar
Church of St. John the Divine, Hasbrouck Heights
Atop my desk sit three calendars. I use each of them to
help me determine the schedule
and orchestration of activities
each month of the year, each
week of the month, each day of
the week and finally, the organization of the hours entrusted
to me on a daily basis.
One calendar records the
“world’s” celebrations. It was
created by The National Children’s Cancer Society, and each
month it depicts “backyard
birds” from around the country.
The graphics are outstanding; the snippets of stories
from people’s lives that are
living with cancer share a
small portion of their journeys
which need to be told; and the
dates list what is happening
regularly.
For June – Flag Day, Father’s Day, and the First Day of
Summer are noted in bold type.
The month of June also sees
Graduations of many kinds,
most commonly from Grammar School, Middle School,
and High School. The majority
of colleges have graduated their
students in May so they may
enter the work force as early
as possible.
June brings with it a definite sense of “vacation” – or
at least the hope that everyone
can “get away” for awhile – a
change of pace and routine of
life; a change in the weather –
warmer, brighter, longer days;
a change in the opportunities
we enjoy – BBQing, getting to
the movies more frequently, ice
cream, picnics in the park.
The second calendar on
my desk is a liturgical, church
calendar. It gives me different
information about my sphere
of life.
It tells me which church
Season we’re in; what Saint or
Apostle, or Celebration is current in the month; what color
is appropriate; what marks
the progress of understanding
God’s presence in the world and
learning how to live the fullest
possible life of faith.
Over the more than six decades of my life I have learned
that ‘living’ is a liturgical activity – no matter what calendar
we choose to follow regularly.
For Christians, the month
of June opens the Season after Pentecost. It’s the longest
Season of the church year,
and encompasses 26 weeks
– generally from mid-May to
late-November, and each week
focuses on a particular aspect
of Jesus’ teaching and ministry
– which sets the example for
each of us.
The third calendar I carry
with me where ever I go. It’s
my personal, daily log of life.
I record, hour by hour,
the tasks I need to do each
day, the people with whom I
come in contact, the activities,
meetings, events at which I am
expected.
It is my journal and my
friend; without it I’m lost – or at
least what I think is the productive, accomplishment oriented
facet of who I am.
It helps me record the people in my life - their anniversaries; our contacts; our time
together; the stories we share;
the things we create together;
and the potential of that which
we commonly build.
I’m not of a mind to use
the newest palm pilot, or cyber/
electronic tools. I still cling
to the heftier, totable type of
calendar. I need something to
hold on to.
Perhaps this is the ground
upon which I have my being –
something to hold on to. For
me, it is knowing God in the
fullest sense possible, which
makes hope possible. It is God
who brought all things into being; who knows us and calls us
his own.
O u r l i ve s’ jo u r n e y s ,
marked daily in this world,
are a recording of the points
which connect us to things
larger, more wonderful, glorious, and mysterious than we
can ever imagine – and yet is
so intimate, caring and compassionate, that each moment
gives witness to the delight of
being alive.
“Jabez” is only mentioned
once in the Bible, in the Hebrew
Scriptures (I Chronicles 4:10).
He is a man of faith, and his
prayer has been recorded for
eternity.
I have never found him
“celebrated” on a calendar; but
he is one of my daily companions. He asked of God: “Oh
that you would bless me, and
enlarge my territory, and that
your hand would be with me,
and keep me from all harm!”
God granted what he asked.
May God g rant you a
peaceful June, a time of refreshment this summer and
sense of wonder and delight in
all of life. ###

Church Launches
Cyber Worship
Rev. Dianna Smith announced that the First Reformed Church has launched a
weekly Cyber Worship service
consisting of scripture readings, a short reflection on the
scripture, music and prayers.
Commenting on the success of the service, Rev. Smith
said, “In an age of time crunches, overburdened parents and
children, and a deep hungering
for something that has meaning, Cyber Worship is a time
to reconnect with God, and
with others in the Christian
community. What began as
a project for my Doctoral Degree has expanded to become
a true work of the Holy Spirit,
changing lives and changing
the Church.” Worshippers have
praised the service as a connection to Church and a chance to
recharge batteries.
The worship service is offered every Wednesday at 7:30
p.m. on the First Reformed
Church Cyber Worship site
on the social media network
Facebook.
To access the Facebook
site, one must be a subscriber
to the Facebook community;
once signed in, First Reformed
Cyber Church can be found
through a name search.
The First Reformed Church
of Hasbrouck Heights is a
congregation of the Reformed
Church of America, founded by
the Dutch in New Amsterdam
in 1628. Today, the RCA is a diverse and inclusive community
of believers growing in faith
and witnessing to the gospel in
word and deed.
The Church welcomes all
to worship every Sunday at
10:00 a.m. For more information call 201-288-1122 or

held their 4th Annual Dinner and Silent Auction. About 100
attended. The menu was turkey dinner with all the trimmings.
The silent auction was for over a dozen beautiful gift baskets.
Live music was provided by the Worship Band from the First
Reformed Church of Palisades of Fort Lee. About $2,000 in
proceeds help fund regular Church ministries and missions,
with a portion benefiting the local chapter of Habitat for
Humanity. The Faith Reformed Church was formed in 1859.

From The Porch Ministries ....
Looking for an opportunity to share with others -- give
back? Pay it forward? An
invitation from Holy Trinity
Lutheran Church. . .
Holy Trinity Lutheran
Church, at the corner of Burton and Hamilton Avenues in
Hasbrouck Heights, welcomes
you to be a part of our “From
the Porch” ministries.
During June, we are sponsoring a “Just Because/Just for
Fun” ministry to thank our
soldiers overseas for all their
sacrifices. We will be sending
a care package of items for
fun and recreation (for men or
women). Playing cards, recent
magazines, frisbees, puzzle
books, snacks such as microwave popcorn, granola bars (no
chocolate or things that melt),
etc., are among the suggested
items. Use your imagination!
Items may be left on the porch
at Holy Trinity, 92 Burton Avenue, Sundays in June from 9
to 11 a.m.
Thanks to all who participated in our Barefoot4Haiti
program. Close to 300 pairs
of shoes have been collected
to date and, with the help of
New Balance North Jersey on
Route 17 and Soles for Souls,
appropriate footwear has been
forwarded to those in Haiti
struggling to recover from the
earthquake.
Watch The Gazette Newspaper for more on Holy Trinity’s monthly ministries or
check our front porch for the
“From the Porch” project of the
month. We invite you to join
us – in small ways, together,
we can make a big difference!
If you have any questions,
please call 201-288-6889. ###

Knights Acknowledge Their Priests
Assumption Church Appreciation Night
Annually, the parishioners of Assumption Church
in Wood-Ridge who serve in
many of the Church ministries
are recognized at an appreciation night buffet dinner.
This year’s affair was held
on April 24, 2010, in the Father Patrick Morris Hall. The
Church’s Lectors, Eucharist
Ministers, Choir Members,
Ushers, Greeter, Decorating
Committee, Religious Education Teachers, Pre Cana
Team, Organization Leaders,
Altar Servers, etc., were all
invited and were served by the
members of the Assumption
School’s Eighth Graders.
However, this year’s festivities had a new twist. The parishioners used the occasion to
show their appreciation to the
priests who serve their parish.
Deacon Nicholas Valdez
offered a blessing prayer to
the priests and then he and his
wife, Carol, presented a statue
of St. Francis to Fr. Brian P.
Cullinane, Pastor, Fr. Paul G.
Sinnema and Fr. Thomas Kelly.

On Wednesday April 28,
2010, the Knights of Columbus
of the Archdiocese of Newark
hosted its Fourth Annual Pride
in Our Priests dinner at The
Fiesta in Wood-Ridge.
The dinner was a way to
honor and express their appreciation to all the men of the
cloth. The evening was opened
to all Knights and their wives,
and was a great way for the
Knights to show their Priests
and Deacons how proud the
Knights are of them. More than
500 men and women were in
attendance.
Many dignitaries were
present, including the Most
Reverend John J. Myers, Archbishop of Newark since 2001,
Past Archbishop of Newark
Most Reverend Peter Leo Gerety who served from 1974 to
1986 and State Deputy Herbert
Meyers from Regina Council
#1688 in Rutherford.
The local priests who attended the dinner were Father
Brian Cullinane, Father Paul
Sinnema, and Father Thomas
Kelly all from Wood-Ridge,
and Rev. Msgr. Lewis V. Papera
from Hasbrouck Heights. The
Knights who attended from
Assumption Church in WoodRidge were Deacon Nicholas
Valdez and his wife Carol,
Deacon Candidate Frank Ma-
teria and his wife Kathy, Grand
Knight Angelo Urato and his
wife Sandra, PGK Peter Gallo
and his wife Marie, and PGK
and District Deputy Russell
Petrocelli; and from Corpus
Christi Church in Hasbrouck
Heights were Grand Knight
Michael Marella, PGK Joseph
Blythe, PGK John Duvernay,
PGK Silvio Sartori, PGK
and District Deputy Anthony
Bernice and Council members
Joseph Vucak, Michael Ciano,
Joseph Peso, Steven Kriso and
David Kriso.
The Archdiocese of Newark consists of four counties:
Bergen, Essex, Hudson and
Union. More than 2,800,000
Catholics reside in this archdiocese. There are 21,000 Knights
and 95 Councils in the Archdiocese.
At the dinner, State Deputy
Herbert Meyer presented The
Most Reverend Archbishop
John J. Myers a check in the
amount of ten thousand dollars
($10,000) raised from the local
Councils during the Drive for
those with Intellectual Disabilities which will go to Catholic
Charities. The Archbishop
expressed his gratitude to the
Knights and commented on
their accomplishments. Story

HH Little League Picnic
The Wood-Ridge Police
Department has updated the
crosswalk signage reflecting a
revised law, effective April 1,
2010, requiring drivers to come
to a complete stop and remain
stopped as soon as a pedestrian
enters a crosswalk.
Prior to this legislative
change, drivers were only mandated to yield, an ambiguous
direction authorities say led to
one of the highest rates of pedestrian fatalities in the nation.
Motorists violating the new
law face a $200 fine (double the
current fine), plus court costs,
and 2 points on their license.
They can also be subject to 15
days of community service and
insurance surcharges.
In addition, if a motorist
hits a pedestrian, the burden of
proof as to blame falls squarely
on the driver. Previously, there
was no legal standard.
Pedestrians may also be
cited under state law for failing
to use due care when crossing.
The law requires them to
obey pedestrian signals and
use crosswalks at signalized intersections as well as yield the
right of way to traffic if they are
not crossing within a crosswalk
or at an intersection. Failure to
comply with the law carries a
$54 fine, plus court costs. ###
