Education Association and their own travel

costs, students traveled to D.C. via charter

bus.

Our students and mentors enjoyed the

experience, meeting with other teams from

around the country, meeting with elected

officials to discuss STEM Education initia-

tives, says Bodmer.Autumn Pedersen, rising senior who

joined the robotics team a year ago, says I

decided to go to the National Advocacy

Conference in Washington D.C because I

knew it would be a unique experience to be

able to express my passion and the passion

of my teammates passion for science, tech-

nology, engineering and mathematics to

representatives of our state on Capitol Hill.

I also believe that the promotion of STEM

and STEM education is an extremely

important initiative.

The conference, allowed robotics stu-

dents, ourselves included, from around the

country the opportunity to have their voice

be heard and to make an impact, she says.

Change is not going to happen in the threeshort days that the conference lasts, but

change will come if we make the STEM ini-

tiative loud enough.

By attending, students garnered knowl-

edge of the United States government, and

of current education legislation, says

Pederson. We also gained the knowledge

of how to plan, and take control of an offi-

ore than a dozen

students from the

Mt. Olive HighSchool robotics team met

with national leaders last

month to raise awareness

about STEM education and

establish relationships.

The 13 students in grades

10 through 12, along with

six monitors, joined other

robotics teams throughout

theUnited States to partici-

pate in the 2014 first Annual

FIRST National AdvocacyConference in Washington

D.C. Hosted by the

Michigan Robotics Team-

FRC 27 Team RUSH, the

conference was held Sun.,

June 15 to Wed., June 18.

The purpose of the con-

ference is to raise awareness

MORT ready for their day on Capitol Hill.

MO Students Lobby STEM Education with Nations Leadersin Congress, the

Administration, and other

organizations about the crit-

ical role that ScienceTechnology Engineering

Mathematics (STEM) edu-

cation plays in enabling the

U.S. to remain the econom-

ic and technological leader

of the global marketplace of

the 21st century.

Members of FIRST

Robotics believe that our

nation must improve the

way our students learn sci-

ence, mathematics, technol-ogy and engineering and

that the business, education,

and STEM communities

must work together to

achieve this goal, explains

David Bodmer, MOHS lead

project manager of FRC

Teams 11 and 193.

Our main focus on this

trip was to start the process

of developing a relationship

with our elected officials,he says. We will continue

to follow up with them and

develop our relationships

with the hope that we can

then help gain support for

STEM Education in our

schools.

I

am so very thrilled to

announce that, as the

sponsor of The Memory

Garden, The Become

Awesome Foundation

received significant support

and helpful information as

knowledge about the

Garden has spread. Ms.

Conways wonderful article

in the last edition of The Mt.

Olive News certainly was

an important conduit and we

are thankful for the newspa-

pers interest. We continue

to plant in the current

Garden and plan for expan-

sion in the next 2-3 years

before completion. Mt.

Olive Township has been an

integral source of support

and provided trees as well

as garden benches at the

Garden site. As knowledge

about the Garden has spread

throughout our community,

many parents who lost their

The Memory Garden Has People Coming Together

children have come forward

to join the project. Some of

these parents lost adult-aged

children recently or years

ago when I lived here as an

emerging adult. Others lost

their children within recent

months or years. Still, we

are coming together as indi-

vidual s who can support

like no other. All of us have

a common goal and com-

mon bond: that our children

will not be forgotten.

Speaking for myself, its

wonderful to have cama-

raderie and not be alone.

The Nick Novaky

lists the individuals who lost

their lives before reaching

their 30th birthday and

wishes to include a brief

memory about each person

listed. Please review the

website and provide any

memories, etc. about the individuals listed,

especially those who have no information

listed. Of course, let us know about any

errors or omitted names as well.

Sitting at the Garden is very peaceful.Some pass by with their dogs on their way

to The Dog Park and I typically hear posi-

tive comments about the Gardens beauty.

Thank you. Sometimes, distant excitement

from the baseball or soccer fields can be

heard and I am reminded of cherished years

with my own children. Of course, the land

around the Garden is still uncultivated. I

have visions of a pathway that meanders

between planned flower gardens as well asplots of wildflowers.

The spirits of our children travel around

us in the wind and land on the petals and

leaves that we grow in the Garden.

cial meeting, which are skills that we will

be able to utilize later on in our profession-

al lives.

Pederson was impressed by howincredible it was to see myself and my

teammates have the opportunity to share our

passion with someone who before might

have had no idea how intense robotics is

and how committed students like us are. It

was amazing to have someone on the out-

side to get a glimpse of the life of a robotics

student, and to have them be intrigued by

it.

On the first day of the conference, stu-

dents received a course in U.S. government

101 and listened to two guest speakers:Whitney Silverman who briefed the teams

on federal education legislative issues; and

Jim Burger, a FIRST lobbyist who spoke

about the FIRST legislative Agenda.

On the second day, teams were preparing

for their upcoming congressional meetings.

Students and mentors were taught how

to conduct a meeting and how to talk about

FIRST, explains Pederson. We were also

briefed on federal education legislation like

the Whole Child, ESEA, IDEA, Title 1, and

Common Core Standards. The goal wasto help teams develop their talking points

so that they would have the ability to walk

into their congressional meetings the fol-

lowing day and have the confidence to take

control of the meeting and present FIRST

and other after school mentor based STEMprograms in a way that would have an

impact on the congressmen we were meet-

ing with.

On Tuesday, teams met with members

from Congress in both the House of

Representatives as well as the Senate repre-

senting their home state. MORT met with

representatives from Governor Chris

Christies office, Congressman Rodney

Frelinghuysens office, Senator Cory

Bookers office, Senators Robert

Menendezs office, and with CongressmanLeonard Lance. During these meetings stu-

dents were given the opportunity to commu-

nicate the mission of FIRST to the con-

gressmen and their representative, as well

as advocate for legislation that may pass

through Congress relating to after-school

mentor based STEM programs like FIRST.

Basically the goal was to convince the

congressman that STEM legislation is

important and worth voting yea for, and to

spread awareness of FIRST and other relat-

ed programs through Capitol Hill, says

Pederson. It was also, as team RUSH put

endless emphasis on, about building rela-

tionships with the congressman from our

state.

When it was concluded, MORT had

successfully completed five official con-

gressional meetings and departed the capi-

tol with greater knowledge of the inner

workings of our nations government.

Bodmer explains how STEM education

must be elevated as a national priority.

Our nations future economic prosperi-

ty is closely linked with student success in

the STEM fields, says Bodmer. The U.S.

must expand the capacity and diversity of

the STEM workforce pipeline.

Policymakers at every level must be

informed about policy issues related to

STEM education. Effective policies to pro-

mote STEM education should be bipartisan

and evidence-based.

The MOHS 2014 Robotics Team had a

very successful year of competitions.

Over all our robotics program and

teams had another successful year and

we've already begun working on projects

for next year's efforts. There is no off-sea-

son for us.

Through positive energy, a group of

girls of Mt. Olive recently completed

their first 5K and are more confident

in overcoming hurdles that may come their

way.These girls participated in Girls on the

Run, a nationally known program that was

offered for the first time by Mt. Olive

Recreation. Seven girls in grades third

through fifth recently completed the first ses-

sion which was held for ten weeks from April

through June at Turkey Brook Park in Budd

Lake.

The program taught positive lessons to

the young participants, making them stronger

emotionally, socially and physically.

It's a great way for girls to learn about

the importance of being healthy inside andout, says Carmin Mangone of Flanders, one

of the coaches for Girls on the Run. We sim-

ply ask them to have fun, do their best and be

themselves. And I think the last part was one

of the most important because it's about

building confident young women and letting

them know they can do anything.

Character Development Program Off To A Running Start in Mt. Olive

That last part was to compete in a region-

al 5K run against hundreds of other girls their

age. Hosted by the Jaycees, the 5K- was held

Sat., June 7 in Florham Park.

Most ran the whole way but some took

some breaks to walk, says Mangone, one of

five coaches in the Mt.Olive program. I was

very proud of all of their accomplishments.

They did a great job! None had ever done a

5K before, they were all very proud of them-

selves.

Of course they benefited physically by

running, but more importantly I hope they

got many life lessons out of it, says

Mangone.

Besides training their bodies to compete

in a 5K race, participants engaged in a life-

changing, character development program

that will empower them in years to come,

continued on next page

building their self-esteem and leadership

skills.

Mangone says, We had 20 different les-

sons, including what it means to be a girl on

the run (positive energy); learning about dif-ferent uncomfortable and comfortable emo-

tions (understanding that there are no bad

emotions but rather uncomfortable); bully-

ing; the importance of good nutrition; how to

deal with conflict; the importance of commu-

nity. A lot of important topics that girls of this

age (grades 3-5) are just learning to deal

with.

Coaches for the program included three

parents and two local women that all loved

the idea of being involved with the program

and wanted to help out the girls in their com-munity, says Mangone.

One of the challenges coaches faced was

trying to get the girls to open up and express

their thoughts and emotions, explains

Mangone. Some just wanted to do the run-

ning but the coaches kept everything fun and

light.

In addition to running and character-

development lessons, the girls participated in

a fundraiser. They decided to raise money

and supplies for Eleventh Hour Rescue in

Flanders.We set up shop outside of Petsmart one

Saturday morning for three hours and col-

lected donations in the form of supplies and

cash, explains Mangone. The girls voted

unanimously to raise money for this charity

from a list of five different charities, explainsMangone.

Established in 1998 as a running program

that would empower girls, Girls on the Run

consists of more than 140 chapters through-

out the United States and Canada. The pro-

gram came to NJ in 2001, and in

MorrisCounty shortly after. The NJ East

Chapter consists of about 680 girls in Union,

Essex and Morris counties. InMorris County,

10 towns now participate in Girls on the Run

with more than 200 girls currently enrolled.

A sister program, Girls on Track, for girlsin grades sixth through eighth, also exists.

Laura Donath of New Providence, Morris

County director of Girls on the Run, says she

wants to get off the ground first with Girls on

the Run and maybe form Girls on Track in

the near future if there is an interest.

Cost to participate is $185 for the ten

week session. Scholarships are offered

through monies raised by fundraising. The

fall session is set for September.

Peter King, a longtimemember of the Mt.Olive Area Chamber

of Commerce and its mostrecent president, was lauded

at a recent chamber morningnetworking event for hisefforts on behalf of the busi-ness community.King resigned as president inearly June due to a jobchange. Greg Stewart, whohad been the previous cham-ber president, will take onthe president' role throughthe rest of 2014.

King, formerly Directorof Marketing and Sales for

the retirement community,Paragon Village, has beeninvolved with the MOACCsince 2005. He spent the lastfour years on the MOACCExecutive Board. King hastaken a position at BristolGlen, a Continuing CareRetirement Community inNewton. Bristol Glen is notcurrently a member of theMount Olive chamber.

Since January, when King

took over as president, a keyaccomplishment has been

Peter King lauded for efforts on behalf of Mt. Olive Chamber of Commerce

expanding the number ofmembership positions onChamber committees to

encourage more widespreadparticipation.

This was done to ensurea continuous feed of dynam-ic, enthusiastic future leadersto the MOACC leadershipfor years and years to come,said King.

The transition from Kingto Stewart promises to beseamless as the two haveworked together for severalyears. Among the many

accomplishments over thepast few years was King and

Stewart's iniation of theMarketing in the Morningprogram, which now attracts

over 50 business people amonth at various locationsaround Mount Olive. Asanother sign of tremendousgrowth over the past fouryears, the Mount Olive groupis now the largest localchamber organization in thestate of New Jersey.

According to King, thebiggest factor in the amazingrebirth of the MOACC wasmeeting Greg Stewart.

Through their shared visionfor what the MOACC could

be and how it could operate, a broad-basedseries of outreach efforts, from networking, tosocial media, to government relations, wereembarked upon. Through these changes, thebenefits of membership in the MOACC were

solidly enhanced."Peter has been a crucial part of the cham-ber's success," said Stewart. "He has broughtexperience and a sense of member involve-ment that the chamber had been missing for along time."

"We have been able to have the MOACCbecome more like a business itself," added

King, "by providing networking opportuni-ties, education and improvement seminars onhow businesses can improve their businessesand themselves. and through other pro-grams."

For King, a Rockaway Township resident,moving on from the Chamber is a bittersweetexperience. I was truly torn on leavingParagon Village and thus, having to leave theMOACC, King said. However, King addedthat he has made very deep friendships with-in the MOACC and [is] sure these friendshipswill continue for many years.

Spending time at the beach is a popular form of recreation

and keeping cool when temperatures soar. A day of swim-

ming necessitates bringing along supplies, namely towels,

sunscreen and maybe even a bestselling novel. Having a

few dollars on hand also can be beneficial, especially for

those who plan to visit shops or concession stands along theboardwalk. But keeping your belongings safe at the beach

while you're playing in the water may require a little inge-

nuity.

Many beachgoers want to enjoy the sand and surf.

However, a select number of people visit the beach hoping

to take advantage of vulnerable people who leave their

valuables unattended. When swimmers wade into the water,

potential thieves may be canvassing the personal belong-

ings swimmers leave behind, so it's best that swimmers take

steps to protect their valuables.

* Do not bring valuable items. It is best to leave expensive

tablets, smartphones and jewelry at home if at all possible.If you are a beach reader, invest in a paperback for summer

reading and leave your e-reader safely at home. Remove

jewelry before you leave for the shore. Rings, earrings and

necklaces can come off in rough surf and be lost forever.

Flaunting a lot of jewelry could make you a target for theft.

Establish a beach wardrobe of inexpensive attire that won't

be missed if they happen to be stolen.

* Don't advertise what you have. Avoid flashing cash orcredit cards at the beach. Try not to showcase certain items,

such as mp3 players or costly cameras, that you brought

along to the beach.

* Camouflage money. Wallets left behind on the sand

become easy targets. Find ways to keep money and other

belongings out of sight. A good idea is to use an empty sun-

block container as a money holder. Clean it thoroughly and

allow to dry. Cut the container in half or cut the neck of the

bottle enough so you can easily insert cash, phones and

keys. Stashed with other beach supplies, sunscreen will not

look out of place. Women can store money in a sanitary

napkin wrapper as another option. Any container that wouldblend in with other beach supplies will suffice.

* Keep cash and cards to a minimum. The beach is not the

place to bring all vital documents and large amounts of

cash. Carry only what's needed, which may include only a

few dollars and a driver's license. Should personal effects

become stolen or get swept away by the waves, it is much

easier to only replace a few items instead of the contents of

an entire wallet.* Set up camp far from the incoming tide. Sometimes the

incoming surf is a greater danger than potential thieves

patrolling the sand. If the tide is coming in or if the waves

grow rough, clothing, shoes, towels, and other belongings

can be quickly dragged out to sea. It may require a bit of a

hike to the water, but placing blankets, tents and umbrellas

far enough inland on the beach can save your belongings

from being washed away.

Ensure a trip to the beach is a safe and enjoyable venture.

Keep money, keys and other personal effects in mind when

packing for your trip.

Homeruns put them on the map, but it

was their character that acted as

their compass.

In their first season since sports returned

to the Mt. Olive Middle School for the2013-2014 school year, the girls softball

team finished with a Group IV

Championship and a 12-2 record. The

MOMS Girls Softball team competed in the

Greater Morris County Junior School

Conference Athletics from March through

June 7.

Coaches credit the girls hard work, ded-

ication and character for the teams success.

The players started as 17 individuals

and came together as one cohesive unit,

says Karen Lavalley, softball and fieldhockey coach at MOMS who also teaches

health and physical education at the school.

Their practices consisted of skill work,

peer teaching and team bonding activities.

Their climb to the top was well earned with

their determination, dedication, persever-

ance and hard work. Effort equals outcome!

These girls are athletes with great char-

acter, continues Lavalley. Their coaches

have stated how they are such a class act on

and off the field. At times of adverse situa-

tions or conditions their character grewstronger; a true testament that a persons

character does determine ones destiny.

This years team consisted of six eighth

graders; two seventh graders; and nine sixth

graders. Sheri Newton, a social studies

teacher at MOMS served as the assistant

coach.In the start of the tournament, the girls

played Parsippany Central, and won 9-8.

Next they played Brooklawn, the undefeat-

ed team ranked number one.

The first time they faced Brooklawn the

game was cancelled due to inclimate weath-

er, says Levalley. In the second game, they

defeated Brooklawn by the score of 4-2.

The girls played an amazing offensive

and defensive game to stop Brooklawn and

advance to the finals, says Levalley. The

final game they defeated Long Valley tocapture their group IV G.M.C.J.S.C.A.

championship title, the second time in

MOMS school history, says Levalley, who

has been coaching for 27 years.

In 2007, the MOMS Girls Softball team

also won the title with Levalley as the

coach. According to Levalley, the girls

softball team is the only team at the MOMS

to win the county title.

They are great group of girls, contin-

ues Levalley. They are coached very, very

well from early on. With several movingup, Levalley says these athletes will be

MOMS Girls Softball Team Wins Title

fielding a very strong team at the high

school next year.

Theyre going to change the high

school program, says Levalley. They

were just an amazing group of girls. I could-

nt have asked for a better experience.

The MOMS had been without sports

since 2007 as a result from budget cuts.

Levalley is pleased they have returned.So many life skills can be taught with

sports, says Levalley, like time manage-

ment, team building and bonding, commu-

nicating and working together,

setting goals, persistence and facing

adversity.

Offering sports, or even clubs, also

allows students to get involved and can pre-

vent them from feeling isolated which can

put them down a different path.

The Mt. Olive Marauders 8U Travel Baseball team

raised more than $1,000 this season for the teams

benefit thanks to a local restaurant that opened its

door.Caff Margherita in Budd Lake hosted the fundraiser on

Thursday, April 24, from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. About 70 people

enjoyed excellent Italian food while raising funds for

next years travel baseball team.

The 13 players, seven and eight year olds, were asked to

sell tickets to family and friends to attend the dinner. While

the team has had other types of fundraisers in the past, like

bake sales and concession stands, the dinner fundraiser was

this teams first.

Team parents were very grateful to the restaurants sup-

port and cooking the pasta dinner.Its nice they did this for our kids, says Angela

OToole, mother of one of the baseball players. They

cooked for us; they let us have the room. We didnt have to

bring anything. It saved us money and time. Sometimes it

gets expensive having to rent a hall and the hassle of bring-

ing their own food.

On behalf of our team, thank you, says OToole. It

was great help for our team to raise this money. The $1,000

will be used by the travel team next year to help offset the

costs for uniforms, bags, field costs, empires.

Local animal shelters rely on the com-

munity to support their needs. So

when National Pet Month camearound, Giant Gymnastics wanted to be that

support. For several weeks, students at

Giant Gymnastics raised money through a

Cartwheel-A-Thon to donate to Eleventh

Hour Rescue. Giant Gymnastics competi-

tive gymnastics team, The Garden Gators,

also took the time to make dog and cat toys

from recycled items to donate to Eleventh

Hour Rescue.

We love to host events like this that get

us involved in the community said co-

owner Jennifer Packard. We feel itsimportant that our gymnasts not only grow

through gymnastics but by being involved

in the community as well.

Gymnasts took time in class to count

how many cartwheels they could do in 30

seconds. They then had family and friends

pledge money for the cause. The competi-

tive gymnasts brought in old t-shirts, socks,

jeans, soft balls, and other items to create

toys for cats and dogs. Other items such as

pet food were also brought in to give to the

shelter. This year $660.00 was raised, andover 30 toys were made.

Eleventh Hour Rescue is a volunteer

based, non profit, 501c3 organization that

literally saves dogs and cats from death row.They rely on the generosity of their volun-

teers to provide loving foster homes for the

dogs and cats pulled from death row in high

kill shelters. They invite the public to

explore their website and humbly offer the

chance to let one of their exceptional ani-

mals touch the hearts of others.

Without the community, Eleventh Hour

couldnt do what they do, and that is to sim-

ply give the animals a chance. Without the

generosity of the public, the animals dont

stand a chance. EHR Director, StaceyCudnik stated that volunteers will not stop

until all the cages are empty. We are very

grateful to Giant Gymnastics for being cre-

ative and generous by involving the stu-

dents.

www. ehrdogs.org

In 1909 Thomas Edison made the fortuitous trip to visit

his good friend Mark Twain (Samuel Langhorne

Clemens) along with his friend George Eastman of

Eastman Kodak. They brought along the movie equipment-

Edisons kinetograph camera and Eastman Kodak celluloid

film to record friend Mark Twain and his two daughters at

his final Stormfield home in Redding CT. This film was

going to be part of the story of The Prince and Pauper. In

1909 the technology had not yet been invented for com-

bined audio and video recording. One year later Mark

Twain died at the age of 74. His daughter Jean who

appeared in this movie clip died in 1909 at the age of 29

from a sudden heart attack. This would be the only video

of Mark Twain and the film is now part of the Smithsonian

collection in Washington DC.

Even though in this period of technology could not cap-

ture sound on movie film, voice recordings were available

many years before movie film. In 1891 Mark Twain

attempted to dictate his novella An American Claimant on

Edisons wax cylinders but all 48 recorded cylinders were

lost. Later Twain read his stories with the newly improved

technical quality of the phonograph at the Edison studio in

New York City. However, these finished voice recordings

were stored at the West Orange facility and in 1914 they

were destroyed by fire. The wonderful narrative voice of

Mark Twain that people experienced during his live stage

presentations was lost forever. Actors who got to listen to

his voice did their best at giving impersonations of this dis-

tinctive voice. It is these impersonations that have been

handed down that gives the essence of this famous authors

voice today.

Today we can still replicate the old film technology that

Edison and Eastman had started. The Thomas Edison West

Orange NPS will offer on Sunday, July 27th at 2:00 p.m.

(RESERVATIONS REQUIRED. Call 973-736-0550 ext.

89) a special film production event . Participants will use the

technologies and practices originally used by Thomas

Edison in collaboration with MONO NO AWARE.

Workshop participants will re-enact classic kinetoscope

films at the Black Maria with props provided by FilmBiz. .

It will be the same movie production the Edison studios did

in the late 1800s. They will capture short sequences on

black and white reversal film stock. All the films will be

processed on site and presented at a special screening that

will take place at 4:00 p.m. The films will then be scanned

and transferred to HD by DiJiFi for participants to share

with friends and family online. During the workshop, the

cinema arts non-profit MONO NO AWARE will introduce

the celluloid film format created in 1889 by George

Eastman that allowed Thomas Alva Edison to develop the

motion picture camera in 1891. It was a partnership and

friendship that gave way to the birth of motion pictures in

America

Please visit Thomas Edisons West Orange lab where

you can view these short films and take a look at the Black

Maria studio. Visit the Thomas Alva Edison Museum -

Meet Andy

T

his is the stunningly gorgeous, playful, and sweet

Andy from Eleventh Hour Rescue. Andy's foster

mom has nursed him back to health from a hip frac-ture which put him on death row. He has proven to be lov-

ing, loyal and wonderful with all people and other dogs.

Andy is approximately a year old and still very much a pup.

He loves toys and playing with other dogs. Andy is still

learning his manners but has mastered a few commands and

is very smart. He is house and crate trained. He also takes

treats nicely.

Andy will make a wonderful addition to a family but

may do better in a home with older children and larger

canine playmates since he doesn't realize his own size (68

lbs.) and strength. To read more about Andy, and to see all

of the adoptable pets, please visist: www.ehrdogs.org orcall: 973-664-0865.

Summer is peak strawberry season and

the perfect time to enjoy one of

Americas favorite fruits.

While available year-round, California

strawberries are most plentiful from May

through August with the state producing

nearly 90 percent of strawberries grown in

the entire country. Not only are strawberries

delicious, these pretty red gems also offermany health benefits. In fact, eating just

eight medium size strawberries a day may

improve heart and brain health, lower blood

pressure and reduce the risk of some can-

cers.

Sweet additions

California strawberries are versatile,

making them ideal additions to summer

dishes.

Fresh, seasonal ingredients bring fla-

vorful bursts to recipes at my restaurants

and home, said Brian Malarkey, celebritychef, restaurateur and spokesperson for the

California Strawberry Commission. I love

incorporating the natural taste of strawber-

ries in both sweet and savory dishes for an

unexpected hint of sweetness.

From fresh fish and salads to lemonade

and even barbecue sauce, just add strawber-

ries to give any meal scrumptious summer

flavor. For additional recipes by Chef

Malarkey and more, visit www.californias-trawberries.com.

How to Select the Perfect Wines


8/12/2019 Mt. Olive - July 2014

What do you reach for around 3 inthe afternoon? Something salty?

Something crunchy? Something

creamy, smooth and sweet? These days,

more and more snackers are looking for

something wholesome and satisfying to get

them through the afternoon.

Heres one snacking choice you may not

have thought of: pudding. When pudding is

made right just the way your grandma

used to its made with real ingredients

like milk and eggs, cooked slowly until its

creamy and delicious. While cooking up

your own pudding is a fun and satisfying

weekend or evening project, when you need

a quick afternoon snack, thats probably not

in the cards.

Fortunately, there are still some compa-

nies making pudding just the way you

would at home, slowly simmered to perfec-

tion. This is great news for people who want

a smooth and creamy snack they can feel

good about. Theres a good reason why sim-

ple, comforting pudding was a favorite

childhood snack and is still a wholesome

snack choice today.

Simple Ideas for a Delicious Snack

Pudding is perfect straight out of the

refrigerator, of course, and all you need to

enjoy it is a spoon. But you can make it your

own with other ingredients that you proba-

bly have right in your kitchen. Take a look

at your spice rack: Youve probably got cin-

namon, nutmeg and cayenne pepper. In your

pantry, youve got crunchy cookies, pretzels

and nuts. Fresh and frozen fruit are always

good to have on hand. Even canned and

shelf-stable packs of tropical fruits can top

your pudding. Before you know it, youll be

seeing surprising pudding pairings every-

where you look.

With a little creativity, you could have a

unique pudding snack every day of the

week. Weve got a few ideas to get you

started.

Ways to Protect Your Family Outdoors

8/12/2019 Mt. Olive - July 2014

38/48

Before your family begins enjoying the great out-

doors during this adventure-filled season, make sure

your yard is properly treated to avoid the dangers of

poison ivy, oak or sumac.

Learn the proper steps to keep the threat of poisonous

plants away from your family and property. Ashton Ritchie,

Lawn & Garden Expert and Author offers this expert advice

for protecting your family:

Locating the danger

Keeping your family safe begins with proper identifica-

tion of these harmful, rash-producing plants. In the right

environment, poisonous weeds can grow and spread quick-ly. Using a photo or resource like StopPoisonIvy.com can

help identify the various poison weeds and their stages

(Poison Ivy often emerges red and only starts to turn green

in late spring). Survey your yard once a month, keeping a

close eye on these common areas:

Ground Cover: A common area for poison ivy is along

the edge of a wooded area or around any shaded and less

maintained section of the yard.

Trees: By disguising itself as part of a tree limb, poison

ivy often climbs up trees situated in shady locations.

Edges: If you find that poison ivy continues to invade

your outdoor space year after year, you may be experienc-ing the edge effect, a phenomenon that occurs when the

wooded areas surrounding your yard dry out. Various weeds

flourish under such conditions.

Stumps: Dead stumps are also a common hangout for

these harmful weeds.

Eliminate the threat

Once you have determined where the poison ivy is locat-

ed, you can work to remove it from your surroundings.

Look for a weed-eliminating product that works double-

duty, such as Roundup Poison Ivy Plus Tough Brush

Killer, which penetrates the waxy surface of poison ivy,

oak, sumac, kudzu and other tough weeds, while alsokilling at the roots.

Wear protection

Before contact with these poisonous plants, always wear

the proper clothing and protection. Be sure to cover your

hands with thick, long gloves and wear a long sleeved shirt

and pants in case you accidently touch the plants.

Choose the right time

Always choose a calm, wind-free day for applying prod-

ucts to avoid contact with other desirable plants in your

yard. If you can, it is best to apply with a temperature above

60 degrees F.

Apply a weed-killing solution

Spray a specialized weed killer, such as Roundup

Poison Ivy Plus Tough Brush Killer on the leaves until sat-

urated, taking care not to apply to nearby trees, grasses and

desirable plants. You should always read and follow label

directions.

Wait for the plant to completely die

Perennial weeds such as poison ivy may take 4 or more

weeks for a complete kill, so be patient and follow the

directions on the specialized weed killer packaging.

Regularly monitor surroundings

Keep new weeds from growing by surveying your out-

door areas at least once a month throughout the busy weed-

growing months of May through November.

With proper application and monitoring, your family can

enjoy all the outdoor fun without the worry. For more tips

and tricks, visit www.StopPoisonIvy.com.
