Celebrating the kickoff of the Summer Reading program, Dream Big, Read, for infants through sixth graders, at the

Roxbury Public Library, are Madeline and her younger sister, Evelynn Keil. Tweedles the clown was on hand to create bal-

loon masterpieces while volunteers provided their expertise in face painting. A good time was had by all!

On July 28, four Roxbury-area churches will host a

night of Christian music as a benefit for Freedom

Forth, a local non-profit organization.

Praise in the Park begins at 6pm at the Horseshoe Lake

bandshell (located just off Eyland Avenue in Succasunna)

and includes worship bands from the First Presbyterian

Church of Berkshire Valley, Hillside Lutheran Church,

Ledgewood Baptist Church and Succasunna UnitedMethodist Church. The evening will also feature a special

performance by Michael T. Grant.

Those attending are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or

blankets and refreshments. Admission is free. An offering

will benefit Freedom Forth, a nonprofit organization dedi-

cated to ending violence against women and serving sur-

vivors of domestic violence and trafficking in Morris

About Freedom Forth: Freedom Forth is a 501- (c)(3)

nonprofit organization dedicated to ending violence against

women. Through prevention and after-care they offer pro-

grams to serve women survivors of domestic violence and

trafficking in Morris County, NJ.

In September 2011 they began their first after-care pro-gram to directly serve women of domestic violence in

Roxbury, New Jersey. Each participant has received med-

ical services, career and interview training, counseling,

parenting skills and financial literacy. In addition, their

program provided a weekly community support group

where each woman received individual support as well as

basic necessities including food, clothing and toiletry items.

The goal of these services and support is to ultimately

enable their participants to return to the community and

live independently. Most importantly, each woman

has become a part of the Freedom Forth family and has

replaced her feelings of isolation, hopelessness and shame

with dignity and trust.

Submitted By Michele Guttenberger -

AAUW-NJ VP of Communications

Lynn Beckmann is a woman of free feminist spirit.She and her husband Brian have planned vacations

to include hikes up Mt Kilimanjaro. Many of their

exotic traveling destinations included a family package plan

with their sons. Although the two Beckmann sons are well

into adulthood, this Baby Boomer Mom has recently

trekked the family through the bamboo trails of Viet Nam.

It was only natural for Lynn Beckmann to think of an inno-

vative way to have a fund raiser for her AAUW-NJ

(American Association of University Women) Sussex

County Branch. With her aptitude for reading maps and

developing course trails, she along with Brian has transi-

tioned this experience to motorsport road rallies. Lynn hasoften become the Rallyemaster for the Motorsport Club of

North Jersey. She is skilled at developing challenging traps

to her Motor Rallye Courses. Lynn also puts a lot of con-

sideration into the theme for these courses. The last Motor

Rallye she developed for her AAUW fund raiser was for a

fall excursion through Warren County that included old his-

toric cemeteries.

Lynn along with John Groot of the Motorsport Club of

North Jersey - MCNJ has developed another course to ben-

efit the AAUW-NJ Sussex County Branch Scholarship

Fund. Although it is a challenging course, the novice par-

ticipant is encouraged to sign up with awards presented tothe best placed Novice Class too. This road Rallye will

be held on Saturday, July 28, 2012. It is called Farming It

Out. The cost is $25 per car and it will start from the

McDonalds of Route 206 North, Byram Twp. with a sign-up 11:00 am, and first car off at 12 Noon. The course will

wind through the most scenic farmland in the Wantage

Township area with the end point at Chun Bo Restaurant -

66 Sparta Ave, Newton, NJ. For inquiries about this event

please contact Lynn Beckmann at 862-268-1782 or

[email protected]. Participants are also encouraged to preregis-

ter at http://www.mcnj.org/2012/JulyPre-Registration.htm

AAUW attracts women like Lynn Beckmann who want

to be a catalyst for change and improving women's lives.

AAUW is one of the nation's leading voices promoting edu-

cation and equity for women and girls. It has the power of

approximately 100,000 members, 1300 branches and 500college/university partners. It offers a portfolio of services

and programs that enhances the professional and personal

lives of their adult members besides their school and col-

lege communities. AAUW-NJ further expands these bene-

fits to NJ communities through its branches or Membership

At Large enrollments. AAUW-NJ Branch membership

helps push community programs and provides leadership

development opportunities. Recent projects have been

offering college entry young women attendance to

Student Leaders, teaming up to organize Girl Focused

STEM Workshops at NJ colleges (Teentech) and K-3School/Girl Scout STEM Robotic programs. AAUW-NJ

Branches also participate in exciting and fun social events

house that needed work inside and out. At

the Netcong ShopRite, still others gave out

1,000 free disposable shopping bags to

There were no strings attached; they wanted

nothing in return.

This special time of giving was the 4th

Tim Leonard, Director of Family

Ministries at the church, is what you might

call the CEO of Grace Gives. He works

with towns, organizations and individuals to

find areas of need, coordinates Grace teamvisits, works with those heading teams of

volunteers, etc. On the days of the event,

he is at the command center, so to speak.

He noted that Grace Gives reflects what the

church believes.

One pillar of our church is love thy

neighbor, Leonard shared.

For Grace Gives, that neighbor was

the surrounding communities and some

nursing homes in Hackettstown. The idea

was to help organizations not associated

with the church, with no strings attached.Chris Kay of Stanhope was one of two

people coordinating the nursing home proj-

ect. Kays primary function was to put vol-

unteers on various teams at several local

nursing homes and group homes.

A lot of my work happens before the

Grace Gives weekend since I help coordi-

nate the logistics and scheduling for the

Nursing Home Area. What makes the week-

end so special is the interactions our volun-

teers have with the residents. It is rare in

today's society to get something for nothing,

but that is at the center of what we do. We

know as Christians that God extends us

love, grace, and compassion with no strings

attached. The volunteers are simply reflect-

ing what God offers us, Kay shared.

For one of the weekends projects, thechurch facilities took on the look of

WalMart, with different departments for a

free garage sales for those in need. The

congregation provided the goods and those

who came were by invitation only, with the

names of the needy provided to the church.

Volunteers also helped in a variety of

other areas such as putting up wind screens

at Budd Lake beach, beautifying eight local

parks, helping at Noahs Ark, and making

major improvements to three homes. For

the latter, Grace also donated the materialsand was helped by licensed contractors who

donated their time.

I was assigned to a home that needed

work inside and out. I was one of about 50

Grace members who worked for two days

painting, power washing, renovating the

kitchen, mowing the lawn and planting

flowers. Much, much more was done but

that was only the tip of the iceberg. I start-

ed out wanting to give back some of what

the Lord has given me, but I received so

much more back! All these Grace members

Grace Gives...continued from page 10 worked together with a happy hum of pro-

ductivity. At lunch, one of the members

sang and played the songs we love from

church. I went home tired, but so full of

joy! I still think of the family and what their

reaction must have been, said Helen Rayof Randolph.

The church has really embraced this

part of the fabric of who we are, said

Leonard in talking about the outreach. He

also shared that, at Grace, our mission is to

build up generations of families that are

built to last. In many cases, family mem-

bers worked side by side on Grace Gives

projects.

In talking to some of the volunteers from

that weekend, there was a sense of play it

forward. It was clear that they felt blessed

and wanted to pass that on.

I helped out at the House of the Good

Shepherd by playing the harp. Each year

there's something special that gives me back

more than I give. Last year, it was the faces

on the dear seniors who got to try out play-ing 'angel' music on the harp! [It was] just

a glissando and thats a piece of cake to do.

The joy on their faces was so cool. Like the

best thing since sliced bread! This year one

lady clapped after each song I played and

kept saying she was my 'audience.' It was a

small way to brighten the day, bring joy and

make a difference in peoples lives. I've

been so blessed by Grace and so it's only

natural to turn it around and give a blessing

back, said Linda Planseon of Randolph.

T

hese days, everyone seems to be try-

ing to find a way to beat the heat.

People are donning short sleeve

shirts and shorts and looking for ways tocool off.

Now imagine what it must feel like to

wear a heavy fur coat on these hot summer

days. Thats what dogs and cats have to do.

The heat poses significant problems for

them. However, there are ways to help

them beat the heat, some of which can also

save their lives. Recently, some representa-

tives of local animal rescues talked about

the heat dangers and what pet owners can

do to help their pets.

Last summer, Cassie Kowalchuk sawsomething that she cant forget. While

shopping, a person had left their dog in the

car. Kowalchuk just happened to be com-

ing to the store as the owner returned and

opened the car door. Kowalchuki saw the

dog collapse and fall out of the car. The dog

had suffered brain damage and later had to

be euthanized.

Kowalchuk, founder of Spartas One

Step Closer Animal Rescue (O.S.C.A.R.)

says that every year the rescue gets calls

about animals who are left in hot cars.Dogs suffer every year and die when

their owners make the mistake of leaving

them in a parked car, even for just a few

minutes, while they run an errand. Parked

cars can be a deathtrap for a dog. On a 78-

degree day, the temperature inside a parkedcar can soar to between 100 to 120 degrees

in just minutes. Cracking the windows isnt

enough, Kowalchuk said.

The number one rule for summer pet

safety is never leave your pet unattended in

the car. its too easy to get stuck in a

checkout line or be distracted by a phone

call and lose track of time. Dont put your

pet at risk, said Sarah Wees, Operations

Manager, Noahs Ark Animal Welfare

Association in Ledgewood.

Kowalchuk added, Animals can sufferbrain damage or death from heatstroke in

just 15 minutes. If you see a dog left alone

in a car, take down the car's information and

have the owner paged in the store, or call

local humane authorities. Have someone

keep an eye on the dog and don't leave the

scene until the animal is helped.

What about when walking a dog on a hot

day? What should owners do?

If you pet has very short hair or white

hair and pink skin, their skin can burn from

too much exposure to the sun. Limit the

Help Your Pets Beat the Heat



14/32


pets time in the sun and ask your veterinarian about pet

sunscreen for their ears and nose, said Wees. Also, she

notes you should also think about where your pet will be

walking. Think about your feet. If a road, sidewalk or

other surface is uncomfortably hot for your bare feet, think

twice before asking your pet to walk on it.

Kathy Hurley, a volunteer with Hackettstowns Pet

Adoption League (PAL), has some ideas that will not only

make the walk comfortable for your dog, but enjoyable, too.

A great way to help dogs feel cool while they are out-

side is to plan walks in areas that are shaded and even bet-

ter with a stream or water source where your dog can wet

his paws and belly occasionally. As you continue walking,

the water will evaporate and have a natural cooling affect.

You will find that both you and your dog will be able to

enjoy your daily walk much more if you stay out of direct

sunlight.Hurley said that the same principle can be used at home

with a plastic baby pool. Put the pool in your backyard and

fill it with water.

Most dogs - even if they normally avoid water - will be

interested and will jump in to cool off and play with the

water because it feels so nice. Being wet will allow your

dog to be more active because as the water evaporates from

their coat, it has a natural cooling effect, said Hurley.

Dogs are not the only ones who can be beat by the heat.

Cats need help to stay cool, too. To keep pets cool at home,

Hurley shared these tips:

Leave on your air conditioning in the mid-70s during

the day so your dog and cat are comfortable. If you don't

have air conditioning , get a circular fan that you can tilt to

point up to the ceiling and leave it on for your pets. This

will circulate the cool air on the floor up to the ceiling anddown and give them a slight breeze so they can feel cooler.

Also, remove wool or fleece blankets from their beds and

replace them with cotton sheets that will keep them cooler.

A tip that will not only make your dog or cat feeler cool-

er, but is fun, too, is to put ice cubes in his or her water dish.

Not only does it keep the water cool, but pets love to play

with the cubes.

Finally, Heatstroke is a concern during this time of year.

Wees shared what people should look out for and what to do

if they think their pet has heat stroke.

Know the signs of heat stroke in pets. For dogs, exces-

sive or heavy panting, a rapid pulse and drooling can be

signs of heat-related distress. In cats, watch for panting,

pacing, a rapid pulse, respiratory distress, lethargy or dark

red gums. Elevated body temperatures are a danger sign for

both dogs and cats. If you think your pet is overheating, run

cool water over him or her, wrap in cool, wet towels and

transport to the vet immediately. If your pet doesnt like

being wet, try wrapping a bag of frozen peas in a towel and

applying it under his or her neck to cool off. You can also

place a bag of frozen peas under a towel in your pets bed

to create a cool spot on which they can relax. Cats who are

suffering from heat stroke may not want to drink. You can

dribble a few drops of water at a time into their mouths to

Help Your Pets Beat the Heat...continued from page 14

help them stay hydrated on your way to the vet.

To prevent heat stroke, keep your pet indoors or in the

shade in hot weather and limit exercise. Dogs will overheat

faster than humans, so even the most active dogs should

take it easy in the heat. If you are outdoors with your pet, besure to have plenty of water available and a dish your pet

can drink out of. Extra water should be available indoors as

well.

H

omer was a special

dog in the life of his

human companion,

Mark Raab; and now,Homer is special to local

rescued animals. As a trib-

ute to his canine pal, Raab

wrote the book, Homer,

whose key character reflects

Raabs late dogs personali-

ty. That book is sold on

Amazon.com with pro-

ceeds from the sale going to

O.S.C.A.R. (One Step

Closer Animal Rescue) in

Sparta.Homer is a buddy com-

edy about a widower and his

talking dog. Homer, the

dog, helps the man get back

on his feet and assists in his

dating life. Its a heartfelt

story appropriate for all

ages, said Newton resident,

Raab.

Raab has been working

to break into screenwriting

and has written several

screenplays. Homer started

out as one of Raabs family-

friendly comedies, but he

liked it so much that he

turned it into a book.Although it is a work of fic-

tion, Raab explained that

through giving the character

of Homer (the dog) a voice,

it took on the personality of

his beloved pet. Raab noted

that he was in his late 30s

when he got Homer, his first

dog.

I look at this book as

my way of paying tribute to

him. And if the book can beused to help other dogs, that

will be his legacy. Homer

was a wonderful dog and I

miss him very much, said

Raab.

It was after Homers

death that Raab got

involved with O.S.C.A.R.

One might say that it is what

brought them together.

The end of 2009 was a

rough time. In August 2009,

my dog Sirus was diagnosed

with cancer. A month later,

my yellow lab, Homer, was

also diagnosed with cancer.

They both were only eightyears old. I had adopted

them separately, and two

years apart, but strangely

enough they shared the

same exact birthday. Homer

died suddenly on November

4, 2009, just six weeks after

being diagnosed. With

Homer gone, and not sure

how much time Sirus had

left, it meant that eventually

my other dog Sophie wouldbe alone. I couldnt let that

happen to her and I began

looking for our next family

member on Petfinder,

shared Raab.

On Petfinder, Raab was

drawn to the picture of an

adorable dog named

Sawyer. Holding the dog

was Cassie Kowalchuk, the

founder of O.S.C.A.R.

Raab filled out an adoption

Dogs Legacy Helps Other Dogs in Needapplication form and

Kowalchuks mother,

Debbie, brought Sawyer to

Raabs house to see if he

would mesh with the family.Sawyer certainly did.

I still remember the

moment Debbie placed

Sawyer in my arms. I knew

he was the perfect dog for

me and, the best thing of all,

Sophie took to him right

away, said Raab.

That spring Raab ran into

Kowalchuk and her mother

at various O.S.C.A.R. adop-

tion days. They alwaysasked about Sawyer and

Raab was amazed at how,

having adopted out so many

dogs, they remembered who

adopted which dog.

Inspired to get involved,

Raab remembers that he

first volunteered to help at a

bake sale.

I was clueless as to how

much to make. I ended up

baking enough for 10 bake

sales. It then went from bak-

ing, to helping run the

tables, to working the adop-

tion events, to helping

organize fundraisers. The

more I got involved, the

more I wanted to help, he

shared.

Now, at the adoption events, Raab is usu-

ally paired with larger dogs or ones who

dont do as well because of all the hustleand bustle that goes on at the events.

Sometimes these dogs take a little

longer to place, so its not unusual for me to

have the same dog at several events, so I

really get to know them and Im always

rooting for them to find their forever home.

And when it finally happens, I get really

excited. Then well get a photo sent to us of

the dog with its new family. To see that

photo, its just a great feeling, he said.

He noted the Happy Tails, photos of

dogs adopted through O.S.C.A.R., that can

be found on the organizations website. He

said it is those photos that drive him as a

volunteer.

At home, Raabs dog family now con-

sists of Sophie, Sawyer, and Sophies two

other brothers, Finn and Teddy (another

O.S.C.A.R. rescue). However, it is clear

that there will always be a special spot in

Raabs heart for a dog named Homer and

Homers legacy, a book whose proceeds

will help other dogs find loving forever

homes.

Imyself live in Roxbury Twp, and for the

past couple of months, have heard all dif-

ferent rumors about this being a law. First,

i myself heard something on Channel 12.

Then friends said they were in one of the localpet stores and heard many customers dis-

cussing which harness to buy that will fit their

dog and attach to the rear seat belts. Pet Store

customer service reps were affirming this was

a new law. Some were even saying that the

ticket for an unsecured dog in the car would

be over $600!! Then i heard the new law

referred only to small dogs or cats sitting on

the driver's lap...yadda, yadda, yadda!! So,

being i myself have a dog (and yes he sits or

lays in the back seat all the time, good dog

that he is!!) i decided the time had come to

investigate and see what the police had to say.

I spoke on the phone with Sgt. Daniel

Murray from the Roxbury Police

Department. He was quite knowledgeable of

this subject and sent me info in writing that all

of you should read. I appreciate his assistance

in setting the record straight. THANK YOU

SARGENT!! Please read the following that

he was so kind to forward on to me.

"Here is the media statement from NJSP-

CA I located on-line. Hope it helps to clarify

a little better on the animal restraint contro-

versy and how it came to be. Any further

questions don't hesitate to call or email."

NJSPCA Clarifies Unrestrained Animals

in Vehicle Controversy

STATEMENT BY:

Matt Stanton, Spokesperson NJSPCA

Its unfortunate that so many news organi-

zations local and national - have chosen to

mischaracterize the intent of an event the

NJSPCA held with the NJ Motor Vehicle

Commission (NJMVC) on May 30, 2012

regarding unrestrained animals in vehicles.

The purpose of this statement is to set the

record straight and clarify any misconcep-

tions people may have as a result of incorrect

news reports from the event.

The May 30 event was intended to focus

on educating motorists about the potential for

drivers being distracted while transporting

animals in a vehicle, and what precautions

motorists can and should take to protect

themselves and their animals. That was the

purpose of the event, nothing more and noth-

ing less. This was a public education initia-

tive about public safety and distracted driv-

ing, not a law enforcement initiative.

The State of New Jerseys has NOT

passed a new law requiring animals to be

restrained while being transported in a vehi-

cle. In fact, for over fifteen (15) years, New

Jersey has had a law on the books called

improper transport (4:18:22). This law was

explained during the event to highlight the

fact that the NJSPCA does have the authority

to file animal cruelty charges if and when ani-

mals are observed being transported in an

improper manner.

The State of New Jersey is NOT mandat-

ing that animal owners run out to their local

pet store or go online and purchase an animal

harness that integrates into a vehicle seat belt

system. While the NJSPCA urges motorists

to consider purchasing a harness to keep their

animals safe, New Jersey state law does not

require these devices.

The NJSPCA is NOT patrolling the streets

and highways of New Jersey actively seeking

dogs on the laps of drivers or unrestrained in

the back seat of a car. We partnered with the

NJMVC to send the message to motorists that

there are ways to transport animals in a safe

and secure manner that will protect both

motorists and animals alike. However, if in

the course of their duties NJSPCA personnel

observe an animal being transported in an

unsafe manner, they will take corrective

action by issuing a summons and/or warning

and spend some time educating the motorist.

Summonses and/or warnings can and will

be issued when motorists are observed trans-

porting animals in such a manner that will or

could cause harm to the animals or others.

Animals being transported unrestrained in the

back of pick up truck beds, sitting on a driv-

ers lap, or with more than 30% of their bod-

ies protruding out the windows of a vehicle

are examples.

Simply slipping a leash through a seat belt

or some similar method of ensuring that an

animal does not become a flying object if a

crash occurs is a good first step.

Unfortunately, this issue has been twisted and

blown out of proportion. All we are asking is

that motorists take a common sense approach

when transporting their animals to protect

themselves and their animals should an acci-

dent occur.

So...Is There Now A Law To Restrain Your Pet In The Car? Everyone Thinks So, But Think Again!!

by Michele Guttenberger

Thomas Edison was a great inventor but not all of his

projects were as bright as his electric light bulb. In1892 Edison relinquished his reign in the electric

industry with the merger of his Edison General Electric. It

was combined with several other companies to form one

corporation. Feeling diminished by this merger, he wanted

to find another brilliant new venture. He advertized Im

going to do something now so different and so much bigger

than anything Ive ever done before. People will forget that

my name ever was connected with anything electrical.

That something bigger was iron ore mining and refining.

The US Eastern Iron industry was a tough business to be

in. What was left in eastern iron ore mining were poor

yields that contained rock and debris. Unfortunately, steelproduction from this iron ore needed to be free of impuri-

ties. Edison thought he had the answer to this perplexing

problem with electromagnet separation. Edison reasoned

that since iron is magnetic, an electromagnet could separate

the iron from the debris and purify it.

In 1889 he put Sussex Countys Ogdensberg, New Jersey

on the map with perhaps the largest ore-crushing mill in the

world. This mill pulverized large chunks of ore that came

directly from the mine. Edisons big plan was to process

1,200 tons of iron ore every 20 hours. With three magnetic

separators, it could produce a total of 530 tons of refined

ore. However, technical problems with his machinery

always seemed to persist.

Edison even shut down his mill in 1892 thinking that dif-

ferent replacement parts could improve production. But, itwas more than machinery issues that kept this business in

the red. His new business also had a dismal customer list.

The other unforeseeable factors contributing to the demise

of his business was the abundant discovery of better iron

ore deposits out west and the emerging railroad lines capa-

ble of moving mass loads of ore cargo to far distances.

It wasnt long before the iron ore business started to

become a big money pit for Edison. He lost a great deal of

money. It had become even a harder iron pill to swallow.

To finance the operation, he had sold his stock in General

Electric. It was a stock that kept rising in value. His sold

shares would soon reach four million dollars. His responseto his bad investment decision and the missed out wealth in

GE stock was "Well, it's all gone, but we had a hell of a

good time spending it." He eventually found good fortune

again and recovered from this loses with his phonograph

and the motion pictures business.

You can still see some of Edison more successful inven-

tions. Please visit The Thomas Alva Edison Museum- NPS
