magine a world where your infirm, elderly father would never have to go to
a nursing home and lives in his house instead of losing it. Imagine a world
where instead of making a doctors appointment for sometime in the future
and having to get Dad there at the prescribed time, hes literally steps away
from a physicians office and stays healthier instead of declining faster.
Dad has not only a physician, but also a nursing staff, pharmacy, therapists,
social workers, and support staffsteps away all day. A day filled with friend-
ships, fulfilling activities, and services. (He gets driven back and forth, theres
a catered lunch, and theyll even do laundry).
The newest project of South Jersey Healthcare, the $3.4 million SJH LIFE
(Living Independently for Elders) Center opens for business on Monday and
officials say it may bring the imaginary world closer to the real world for hun-
dreds of participants. The center is the heart of the overall LIFE initiative,
which is designed to keep people in the community and out of nursing homes,
provide health care at lower cost, and support family caregivers.

Letters to the Editor
Save Jobs and Taxpayer $$
What is happening in New Jersey to pro-
tect our unemployed citizens from the
invasion of illegals taking their jobs?
Nothing! Why are New Jersey legislators
and the governor not addressing the issue
of illegal immigration in our state? It is esti-
mated that this illegal population is costing
the taxpayers of New Jersey $2.3 billion a
year for health care, welfare, and public
education.
Here is what another state has done for
their citizens. Maybe our governor and
legislators can get an idea from this infor-
mation. Alabama became the latest state to
adopt a measure designed to curb its grow-
ing illegal immigration problem. The
Alabama Taxpayer and Citizen Protection
Act signed into law by Gov. Robert Bentley
on June 9 is acknowledged by both sup-
porters and critics as the most far-reaching
effort yet by a state to deal with illegal
immigration.
Alabama is now the number one state
for immigration enforcement, stated
Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach.
Kobach, who is also of counsel to the
Immigration Reform Law Institute (IRLI),
helped draft Alabamas new law along with
the bills sponsors, State Sen. Scott Beason
and State Rep. Mickey Hammon.
The law, also known as HB 56, is sched-
uled to take effect on September 1. Among
its key provisions, the law:
Makes it a state crime to be an illegal
alien in Alabama.
Makes it a crime for illegal aliens to
work in Alabama.
Requires police to detain individuals
whom they reasonably suspect are illegal
aliens.
Makes it a crime to pick up and trans-
port an illegal alien for the purpose of
employment.
Requires employers to use E-Verify to
check work eligibility of those they hire.
Requires school administrators to
determine students citizenship status (but
does not deny K-12 admission to illegal
aliens).
Paul Frasnelli, Vineland, NJ
Beware of Identity Theft
I am convinced that a solution for identity
theft will never be found, because, it is too
profitable for thieves and services. Perhaps
they are one and the same! Please help me
to understand some basic items. This is our
information. Others have the right to our
information. We are forced to pay to be
informed of our information. Is there
something wrong with this picture?
Several years ago. my identity was
stolen. I really dont know how it hap-
pened. I received a call from a telephone
company, who wanted to help me set up
service in Arizona. All that the identity
thief had to do was steal my information. I,
on the other hand, had to report to local
police, Arizona Police, The Federal Trade
Commission, The Social Security
Administration. There were probably two
or three other steps I have forgotten,
including posting messages on the three
credit reporting agencies.
Eventually, I decided to lock down my
files, so that no one could gain access. The
lock and unlock process used to be free.
Now there are fees attached to the process.
Every time we apply for something, it gets
placed on hold, until we pay a fee to release
our information. So we lose some opportu-
nities, because someone else controls our
information.
The last time I applied for a mortgage,
we had to bring several documents to prove
we were worthy of the loan. The bank
checked out our sources. The credit report-
ing agencies existed, but did not have the
stronghold on our data as they do today.
Another gimmick of credit worthiness is
the credit score. But guess what? You have
to pay to find out your score. A score is not
indicative of your overall ability to repay,
just as standardized testing does not ulti-
mately, indicate success in college or in life.
Adding to my frustration is the fact that
I must deal with robots, or persons who act
like robots, when trying to transfer my
information to them. Most recently, I have
had to place about 10 calls regarding a stu-
dent loan and the matter is still not
resolved, because the robots rule and
offices are closed when I can get to them.
Ive decided to use a credit monitoring
system, and even with the so-called dis-
counts I received, every person must pay a
considerable fee for their information to be
monitored. Then, when I called the credit
reporting agencies, I was given a tongue-
lashing (or sales pitch?) asking why I
would involve a third party. Buying their
program would cost more and that would
be a fee for each of the three agencies, per
person, costing even more money.
I remember a time when your social
security number had very limited usage and
you could just about post it on your head
without consequence. Now, this highly
secretive number and a fewother bits of
information can literally ruin your life.
You can receive your reportbut not
your credit scorefree of charge each year,
from each of the reporting agencies. But, be
sure that you go to the correct address or
they will find a way to charge you for your
information. The correct address is
www.annualcreditreport.com.
Big Brother is evermore present in our
lives. Everywhere we turn, we find more
intrusion. We are told that this helps to
locate evil and corruption, even though the
majority of us are neither evil nor corrupt.
We are told what color to paint our houses,
what types of food to eat. And we, the
noble members of the flock, just sit back
and say b-a-a-a!

Poison Control Centers Heat-
and Sun-Related Illness Advisory
With a heat warning in effect, the
potential for someone developing heat-
related illness increases significantly. Often
referred to as heatstroke or sunstroke,
heat-related illness occurs when a persons
body temperature rises to a dangerous
level. Factors such as underlying medical
problems, dehydration and medication
usage all play a role in heat-related illness.
Human beings can reduce their body tem-
perature in various ways, the most obvious
of which is sweating. On hot, humid days,
the increased moisture in the air slows the
evaporation of sweat. When sweating is not
adequate to cool your body, your tempera-
ture rises, and you may become ill. Because
most heat-related illness or deaths occur
during the summer, people should be
aware of who is at greatest risk and what
actions should be taken to prevent a heat-
related illness. In addition to the elderly,
very young, and people with chronic dis-
eases being at risk, certain medications
increase ones risk.
Medications, which increase the risk of
developing heat-related illness, include but
are not limited to:
Tricyclic antidepressants (amitripty-
line- Elavil

, imipramine- Tofranil

, etc)
Antihistamines (diphenhydramine-
Benadryl

, chlorpheniramine- Chlor-
Trimeton

)
Diuretics (furosemide- Lasix

,
hydrochlorthiazide, Diuril

)
Antipsychotics (haloperidol-
Haldol

)

Campaign Seeks Pennies to
Benefit County Youth
To support after-school programs across
the country, JCPenney has launched a
nationwide philanthropic campaign that
invites customers to turn small change into
Pennies from Heaven by rounding up
their purchases and donating the differ-
ence to a local after-school organization.
The Boys & Girls Club of Vineland is one of
1,100 after-school organizations matched
with a local JCPenney store that will bene-
fit from the proceeds raised during the
Pennies from Heaven campaign. The first
Pennies from Heaven event will kick off

mission in mind so that the social and aca-
demic learning opportunities we provide
after school will continue to be available to
area students, said Chris Volker, Club
director.
The after-school program offered at The

ly active and achieve academic success in
school.

Middle School Partners to
Support Salem City Youth
Salem Middle School and Big Brothers
Big Sisters of Cumberland & Salem
Counties have been working together to
offer School Based Mentoring to students
throughout the school year and beyond.
This past school year, students or Littles
in grades 6 through 8 met with their men-
tors or Bigs on a regular basis. Some
mentoring relationships that formed in the
middle school continue to meet even
though the student is in high school.
Most of the mentors within the Salem
Middle School program are teachers and
administrators. According to a recent sur-
vey, 75 percent of the mentored students
showed an improvement in one or more of
the mentioned areas, 62.5 percent showed
improvement in two areas while another
50 percent showed improvement in three
or four areas. All of this success is a direct
result of the dedication from the school
district, administrators, teachers, students,
parents and members of the community
who support the concept of mentoring.
For more information on Big Brothers
Big Sisters programs, call Arianne
Hegeman, vice president of Programs at
856-692-0916.

Vintage Vineland { BY VINCE FARINACCIO }
Passing the Baton
Old Home Week festivities set the stage for the
centennial and this years 150th celebration.
T
he newspaper articles and chosen
moments preserved in photos of
Old Home Week during the early
days of August 1911 give us a
sense of the pageantry and excitement that
filled Vineland during that 50-year anniver-
sary. The participation of the residents in
everything fromparades to tributes, dedica-
tions and Landis Park festivities saw to it
that the semi-centennial was not only a suc-
cess, but a monumental moment in the
citys history. And even after the official
birthday had been celebrated, there was still
plenty to keep citizens busy.
On Wednesday August 9, 1911, Old Home
Week presented the fourth parade to glide
though the citys streets in as many days. This
one centered on the veterans of the Civil War.
The start of the confrontation between the
Blue and the Gray had also commenced 50
years earlier, linking Vineland forever with
the greatest test our nation has ever faced.
Halting in the center of town where half a
century earlier founder Charles K. Landis
drove a stake to mark the birth of his settle-
ment, the parade participants and observers
listened to an opening prayer and dedication
speech. And as the onlookers watched, the
citys monument to Civil War soldiers and
sailors was unveiled for the first time.
The ceremony continued with a speech
by Mayor W. F. Sawyer, who called the mon-
ument a tribute to the old soldier, and
reminded the crowd of other momentous
occasions in Vinelands short history. He
observed the significance of the spot where
the monument stood before Battle Hymn of
the Republic was played by the parade
band. The dedication concluded with sever-
al more speakers, including Charles K.
Landis Jr., who spoke about the towns tem-
perance principles.

A SUMMERTIME MUSICAL TREAT
Happiness is more than a hit song from this musical, it is the guaranteed
emotion your family will feel aer seeing this delightful show presented by
CCC Theatre Arts. This winning story is "an average day in the life of Charlie
Brown." A day made up of little moments picked from all the days of Charlie
Brown, from Valentine's Day to the baseball season, from wild optimism to utter
despair, all mixed in with the lives of his friends (both human and non-human.)

For the remainder of the week, the town
enjoyed a full schedule of events, the most
popular of which was the balloon ascen-
sion/parachute drop that continued to cap-
tivate residents since its first appearance
on Tuesday.
On Friday, the activities at Landis Park
focused on local youth and the importance
of education. Forty-one baby carriages, each
containing a doll, were paraded by the chil-
dren who brought themto Landis Park to be
judged in competition. Like the Friends of
Historic Vineland at this years re-creation, a
photographer captured the participants in a
posed shot that was available for sale from
Ladd studios the following week.
Afterward, a group of children began the
Maypole dance, accompanied by the City
Silver Band, successfully winding the ribbons
around the Maypole. Speeches by Sawyer
and a representative of the State Department
of Education followed and addressed the
value of education in the development of
good citizens. The High School Alumni
Association Reception was held later that day
with 200 alumni and friends attending,
according to the Evening Journal.
The enthusiasmfor Old Home Week
showed no signs of waning through the
weekend. The largest crowds of the week-
long celebration arrived on Sunday for the
events finale, and brought with it additional
visitors fromother states and continued cov-
erage by at least eight Pennsylvania newspa-
pers as well as the New York Tribune.
The morning opened with church servic-
es and Sunday School, but the remainder of
the day offered a wide variety of activities
and events that accounted for the continu-
ous flowof people. A series of foot races that
included the 100-yard dash, the hurdle and a
five-mile marathon were all underway by
late morning. The races included everything
frombicycles to melon eating competitions.
An afternoon band concert at Landis Park
mixed with midway attractions and real-life
drama when, according to the Evening
Journal, a Camden detective fought with,
arrested and eventually released a man he
felt was soliciting money fromcustomers
after they attended what was advertised as a
free attraction.
That evening, Old Home Week and the
celebration of Vinelands first 50 years came
to a close with fireworks that drewan esti-
mated crowd of 20,000. As the night sky
filled with the brilliance and bang of the dis-
play, the residents who inhabited Vineland
in 1911 had completed their part in this his-
torical relay race and handed the baton to
those who would undertake the 1961 centen-
nial. And nowthe baton is in our hands. I
This century-old photo from Old Home Weeks parade of dolls in baby carriages, inspired
Friends of Historic Vineland to re-create the event earlier this year.

LIFE Center
Continued from cover
A ribbon-cutting and open house were
held last week at the spacious and com-
fortable center.
LIFE cant promise that a person
would never go to a nursing home, but
results from similar PACE (Program for
All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) sites
around the country show the odds are
decreased. Participants in PACE, a
Medicare program, also live on average
two to two-and-a-half years longer than
those in nursing homes, according to
Director of Nursing Carlos Perez
Ive seen these people suffer all my
professional life, said Medical Director
Jerry Haag. They flounder; we put them
in the hospital because we dont know
what to do with them, then a nursing
home and theyre forgottennow I can
help them. If we can give these folks three
to four more years in their home, were
doing something.
SJH LIFE Board Chairman Gary
Simmerman described the program as
patient-centered, innovative, comprehen-
sive, cost-effective, and evidence-based.
Participants will normally pay for LIFE
through their Medicare and/or Medicaid
coverage but not in the traditional way of
a payment for every service by a wide
range of providers. SJH gets a single, all-
inclusive payment, based on a persons
medical risk factors, then provides just
about all of the care the participant needs
for as long as he or she agrees to remain in
the program. This includes hospitaliza-
tion, primary and specialist medical and
psychological services, dental, vision, and
hearing care, labs and diagnostic imaging,
medical equipment, all prescriptions, and
end-of life care. LIFE functions as its own
insurance company, so doctors dont need
approvals to decide on care.
SJH Vice President Ambulatory Care
Jim Boote, a proud proponent of LIFE,
acknowledged theres a financial risk
because a persons care costs could exceed
the fixed fee. He explained that the risk is
managed by monitoring participants care-
fully and keeping them healthier, thus
limiting the need for expensive hospitals
or nursing homes.
LIFE wraps a health care family
around every participant in the program,
he said.
The members of this tight-knit health
care family are a striking group. They all
appear positive, joyful, and genuine.
Were all from the community, so this
could be our parents, said Marketing
Coordinator Kris Olszewski. When you
look at the staff you see that they have a
caring and love for the community that
transcends the frail elderly.
Several staffers pointed out that an
upbeat attitude is essential when working
with an aging, declining population.
At least two of the staff members have

recently obtained advanced degrees later
in life to allow them to achieve their new
positions. Nurse Practitioner Susan Hunter
obtained her degree and certification three
years ago after being a SJH nurse for 24
years. Dietitian Claire Divito graduated
two years ago from New Jerseys
University of Medicine and Dentistry
School of Health Related Professions after
a 20-year career in geriatrics.
A large interdisciplinary team will
meet every morning to discuss patients
needs and treatment plans. It includes
everyone from the medical director to the
van driver.
The adult day care center is now one of
83 in the United States and one of four in
the state. It employs 45 people, a number
which will grow as the participant census
does. Participants can attend from 8 a.m.
to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and
there is a 24-hour phone line, respite for
caregivers, and limited in-home care.
Persons 55 and over who live in the serv-
ice area (all of Cumberland and parts of
Salem and Gloucester counties), medically
qualify for nursing home care, and can live
safely in the community are eligible to
enroll. It is expected that most partici-
pants will be covered by Medicaid and, for
them, there is no out-of-pocket expense.
Of all the innovative, cost-effective,
field-tested aspects of LIFE, the greatest
benefit, if it succeeds, will come to the
participants themselves. They will be
respected, stimulated, and encouraged
given new life. I
The LIFE Center at 2445 South Delsea
Drive in Vineland opens on August 1.

S
everal weeks ago, my wife, daugh-
ters and I were visiting my in-laws
in Point Pleasant Beach. While
talking with my sister-in-law, I
noticed on the shelf a digital picture frame
displaying shots of the family taken at dif-
ferent times of the year.
Occasionally, I would glance at the
frame and catch glimpses of people at wed-
dings, christenings, family parties and such;
however, one time when I looked up I saw
a split-second image of someone I didnt
think I recognized. It was a dark-haired
woman, looking back over her shoulder
and smiling. To me, her beauty was striking
and based solely on the short time that I
saw the picture. I remember thinking that
it was a picture of Deanna Favrethe wife
of NFL quarterback Brett Favrebut I
couldnt figure out why she would be
appearing in my in-laws picture frame.
As the photos continued to cycle
through, two questions kept repeating in my
mind: Who was this woman in the picture
frame and why hadnt I seen her before?
I sat and watched through endless pho-
tos of kids at dance recitals, adults wearing
Christmas bows in their hair, candid shots
from family vacations and more. After what
seemed an hour, the mysterious lady
appeared again, and this time I got a good
look. It took only an instant for me to final-
ly recognize this woman. It was my own
wife. I love this picture of her so much that
Ive made it my profile picture on Facebook.
My wife and I have been married for
almost 19 years now, and weve been togeth-
er for about 23 years. I remember the very
first time I saw her in college and thinking
how beautiful she was. I had no idea at the
time that one day she would be my wife. But
over the years and as we see each other
every day, I suppose it becomes more diffi-
cult to see and fully appreciate the beauty
that we remember from years ago.
I guess the same is true for the places
where we live.
Since I began working in downtown
Vineland in early 2007, Ive had many
opportunities to show Landis Avenue to
people from outside the area and almost
without exception, their response is the
same: What a beautiful downtown you
have. I think thats because they either
havent seen it before or dont see it as often
as Vinelanders do. As a result, they might
look past some of the storefronts waiting
for a tenant, or they dont see a withered
tree or outdated signs detracting from the
overall beauty. In short, they tend to see
things as they are, instead of having their
image clouded by memory.
Over the past few months, weve had
people from out of town come to Landis
Avenue to help paint the mural that Appel
Farm is creating for our downtown. Since
its opening in late May, weve had many
people from Atlantic, Cape May, Gloucester
and other counties come to the Landis
MarketPlace to do some shopping. In both
cases, Ive heard only positive comments
about how nice our downtown looks and
thats nice to hear.
After more than two decades together,
Im grateful that my wife looks past the few
extra pounds Ive gained, the hair Ive lost
and the countless other faults Ive devel-
oped and still sees me as the man she fell in
love with almost 25 years ago. I hope that
Vinelanders do the same for Landis Avenue.
There are a lot of great things happening
downtownjust look for them with fresh
eyes and youll see them, too. I

ill got a call from our buddy John,
who said he had gone crabbing
that day and wanted to know if
we were interested in sharing the
bounty with him.
Are you kidding, Jill asked of course
we would!
A little while later John showed up
with an old wooden basket crawling with
fresh, live blue crabs. He hadnt had time
to clean them, and it seems they were as
unhappy with the heat as we all were.
John looked hot and dirty from being out
in the sun, so before we started in on
cleaning the crabs, I offered him an ice-
cold Yuengling. He readily accepted, and I
joined him in his imbibing.
In anticipation of Johns arrival, Jill had
already started a pot of cooking base for the
crabs. She thought she would have a little
fun, mix it up a bit from the usual cooking
base, so into a pot she put butter and olive
oil, chopped garlic (from the beautiful
heads that we had pulled recently from the
garden), fresh parsley (also from the gar-
den), Yuengling, and in honor of the Puerto
Rican Festival this week, Goya Adobo and
homemade sofrito.
I must digress a little and talk about the
sofrito. Sofrito is a base flavoring agent
popular in Spanish cuisine and just about
every Spanish-speaking culture has its own
version. Likewise, just about every cook has
his or her own recipe. So theres no set
recipe, but its generally made of onions
and garlic, peppers, herbs (including
culantro and cilantro), annatto, tomatoes
and olive oil. It adds a certain, unique fla-
vor, and if youve had local Puerto Rican
rice and beans, youve tasted it, but may not
have been aware of what it was. Its like a
cool breeze in the background of the food;
its clearly there but you cant quite put
your finger on it.
Jill has had it in her head to make
sofrito for a while, because shes been on a
quest to make Puerto Rican rice and beans
herself. And although her version of rice
and beans is not typical (nothing she
makes it typical!), I love it and enjoy hav-
ing it in the fridge for a quick meal. The
neat thing about the sofrito, though, is that
she makes big batches of it, freezes it into
ice cube trays and then bags it. Whenever

we want a little Caribbean fla-
vor boost in something, we
throw a cube or two into what-
ever were making.
Which brings me back to
the crabs. After finishing our
refreshingly cold beers, it was
time to kill and clean our little
friends. I had never done this
before, nor have I ever even
been crabbing (I should change
that fact soon), so John gave
me the rundown. Grab the
claws in one hand (they will
pinch you if given the opportu-
nity), and pull up under the shell of their
back with the other hand. Done quickly
and almost effortlessly, the crabs met a
quick ending as the back was lifted right
off. Inside, the soft strange-looking lungs
needed to be pulled out, and the innards
sprayed out with the hose.
We set up an assembly line (more like a
dis-assembly line), with John catching and
killing, and me spraying and cleaning. This
was all done over the compost pile, as not
to waste anything and after dinner, the
shells also would be buried in the compost
pile. I have to admit that I felt a pang of
sorrow for the little guys as we turned
them from living breathing crustaceans
into dinner, but we all have to go sometime,
right? And what better way to go if youre a
crab than to be made into a delicious and
nutritious meal.
This process got me thinking about
another fact, as well: The vast majority of
the food that we eat these days is domes-
ticated. There is very little truly wild food
anymore. I heard recently about how
seafood is the last great source of wild
food, and even that is diminishing as we
deplete the oceans of seafood and as more
and more fish and shrimp are farmed.
Take a look at the bags of frozen seafood
next time youre in the supermarket. If
the country of origin is Thailand or
Vietnam or another southeast Asian
country, you can almost be sure that they
were farm-raised.
So here was genuinely wild food, cook-
ing in the pot on the stove with a few ears
of sweet Jersey corn on top on the crabs.
Swimming around the salt marshes of the
Delaware Bay that morning, on our
kitchen table that night. Theres some-
thing about that provenance that really
appeals to me.
After a few minutes, the crabs had
turned pink, and the corn was done. John
threw some fat slices of buttered bread on
the grill to char them, and Jill strained
boiled spaghetti in the sink. We laid news-
paper out on the table and ate a delicious
and satisfying summer in southern New
Jersey meal of crabs and spaghetti. I

reetings! Today there are many
people who have different
dietary needs or nutritional
requirements. While I usually
bake using raw sugar for me and my hus-
band, there are many things I bake using all-
natural sugar substitutes or low-glycemic
sweeteners for family members and friends.
Todays column features a follow-up to last
weeks recipe, which used raw sugar. This
weeks recipe is for a similar delicious cheese
pie, but it uses a sweetener that is rather new
to meSlimsweet. It is a great tasting, all-
natural, low-glycemic fruit source sweetener
made from Lo Han, a carefully harvested
fruit found only in China. I have found it to
be great tasting with no bitter aftertaste. I
especially like to use it to replace raw sugar
in freshly squeezed lemonade, on oatmeal
and sprinkled on a bowl of fresh berries.
While I dont have diabetes, I know replacing
sugar of any kind with a low-glycemic sweet-
ener is better for my health, so Im happy to
have found out about Slimsweet, and even
happier to share this information with you.
Lisas Low Glycemic Lime Cheese Pie
4 (8 oz.) pkgs. cream cheese, softened
8 eggs
1 (2.82 oz.) TriMedica Slimsweet
Zest of 1 large or 2 small limes
Juice from 1 large or 2 small limes
1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1 (16 oz.) container sour cream
4 - 5 tbs. TriMedica Slimsweet
1 tsp. lime zest
1 tbs. fresh lime juice
1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl, add
the cream cheese, eggs, 2.82 oz. bottle of
Slimsweet, zest of one large lime, juice of one
large lime and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, then beat
with an electric mixer until ingredients are
well combined. Pour batter into a pie pan
coated with non-stick cooking spray and
bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Take pie out of the
oven and let cool on wire rack for 20 min-
utes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl add sour
cream, 4 to 5 tablespoons Slimsweet, one tea-
spoon lime zest, one tablespoon lime juice
and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, stir well and set
aside. After pie has cooled for 20 minutes,
spoon sour cream mixture on top of the
cheese pie (in the center), and spread gently
leaving about an inch all the way around the
pie free of the sour cream mixture as a
crust. Place pie back into the oven and bake
10 to 15 minutes longer. Remove pie from
oven and let cool 30 minutes on a wire rack,
then place pie in the refrigerator for 3 to 4
hours before serving. Makes 2 pies
Note: Slimsweet can be purchased at ama-
zon.com, other online sites, and some health
food stores. If you cant find Slimsweet,
replace with 2/3 cup Xylitol in the batter and
3 tablespoons Xylitol in the sour cream mix-
ture. Also, you can replace Slimsweet in this
recipe with raw sugar if youre not looking
for a low-glycemic recipe. Just replace the
bottle of Slimsweet in this recipe with 2/3
cup raw sugar, and use 2-3 tablespoons of
raw sugar in the sour cream mixture in place
of the Slimsweet. I

S
everal weeks ago, I read an online
article by Nicole Frehsee of Budget
Travel, titled 15 Places Kids
Should See by Age 15. Fifteen
landmarks in 15 years averages out to one
per yearan ambitious schedule.
My kids have far to go before they visit
all 15, but they have been to some other
awesome spots. We took them overseas
twice while they could still fly for free or
at reduced rates. We had family serving in
the military in Europe at the time, so we
couldnt pass up the opportunity of free
lodgingthat was budget travel for us.
Sadly, even our oldest has no real recollec-
tion of either trip.
One disappointment with the Budget
Travel list is the omission of Gettysburg
National Battlefield, especially since this is
the 150th anniversary of the Civil War.
Without further ado, heres the list, with
added commentary by your columnist:
1. Grand Canyon, Arizona This one
has been recommended to us by friends who
took their kids there last summer. The mom
declared it one of the places she wanted to
see in her lifetime, a more realistic goal.
2. Redwood National Park, California
Hey, my daughter saw this one, at three
months of age, when we visited, you
guessed it, family stationed at Monterey.
3. Monticello, VirginiaOn a trip back
from Shenandoah 10 years ago, I wanted to
stop here. A good idea in theory, but the
list-makers obviously dont know what its
like having twins in their terrible twos.
4. The FreedomTrail,
MassachusettsI hadnt heard of this
one. Budget Travel recommends the 90-
minute Pirates and Patriots tour...to learn
about colonial history from an 18th-centu-
ry ship captain while parading around
Bostons waterfront. Its driveable, so its
on our family list now.
5. Niagara Falls, NewYorkWell, we
havent been here, but it sounds like a good
one for summertime. Cave of the Winds
tour takes you into the Niagara Gorge, where
youll be drenched by the tropical-storm-like
spray from the 181-foot Bridal Veil Falls.
6. The National Mall, Washington,
D.C.We took a family trip here last sum-
mer and I wrote a column titled
Monumental Trip. Our nations capital is
within driving distance, so I agree all in
our region should see and experience this
city by age 15 or so. And, its one of just
two on the list that I had visited before I
was 15 (both on school trips).
7. Williamsburg, VirginiaWe were
close by a couple of times, but again, not a
good time for us or kids not the right age.
Still on our list, though.
8. Walt Disney World Resort,
FloridaWhos making up this list, any-
way? Okay, Epcot Center might be worth-
while. Can you tell were not Disney or
theme park fanatics?
9. Independence Hall, Pennsylvania
This is the other place I visited on a school
trip, but only one of my kids has done so.
This is a no brainer, with the birthplace of
our country just minutes away. The list-
makers recommend the Ghost Tour, a 90-
minute, candle-lit stroll that winds past
landmarks including haunted grave-
yards. Tour costs adults $17; kids 4 and up,
$8. ghosttour.com. We may have to try this.
10. Alcatraz Island, CaliforniaOur
seventh graders summer reading book, Al
Capone Does My Shirts, will take them
there, the closest they will get in the fore-
seeable future.
11. Ellis Island, NewYorkAnother no-
brainer. Suggestion fromBudget Travel: A
hunt for your ancestors at the Ellis Island
Immigration Museum, where for $5 you can
search through ... records to find the exact
date your relatives sailed into New York, as
well as which ship they were on. (Bonus:
copies of the documents are yours to keep.)
Or hold off until next year, when the
Peopling of America Center is slated to
open. It will focus on U.S. immigration
from 1955 (when Ellis Island closed) to
the present.
12. Yellowstone National Park,
Wyoming, Montana, IdahoCame close
to seeing it on a trip to Wyoming when I
was 16 (we traveled through the Teton
Mountains instead), then visited the bears
and Old Faithful a couple of decades later,
before kids.
13. Fenway Park, Massachusetts
Another one within driving distance. Maybe
this could be part of the FreedomTrail trip.
14. Craters of the Moon National
Monument & Preserve, IdahoA good
one for westerners, I guess.
15. San Diego Zoo, California
Easterners can replace this with the
National Zoo in Washington, D.C. or
Philadelphia Zoo, the nations first zoo.
Wherever and whenever you go, enjoy! I

Make the Most of
Watering
Summer weather can be harsh on a
lawn. Even the most lawn-conscious
homeowner can be helpless against a
summer heat wave, such as the couple we
have had so far this summer.
One of the most effective ways to help
a lawn combat summer heat is to water
the lawn as effectively as possible. This is
especially true for homeowners who live
in areas that frequently fall victim to
drought. Such areas often have drought
restrictions that limit how much a home-
owner can water his or her property.
These restrictions highlight the impor-
tance of watering effectively.
Water deeply and infrequently.
Light but frequent watering will not pro-
mote strong roots. In fact, homeowners
who water too frequently can expect the
growth of weeds. Deep water promotes
strong, healthy roots and can significantly
reduce the chances of a weed infestation.
Dont waste water on the pave-
ment. Be sure sprinklers are placed in
spots where no water will be overshooting
the lawn and landing on the pavement.
Adjust the sprinkler heads so all the avail-
able water ends up on the grass where it
belongs.
Water early. Evaporation loss is low-
est in the early morning, typically between
the hours of 5 and 10 a.m. This is a better
time to water than at night, when water-
ing could lead to fungal disease.
Water newly seeded or sodded
lawns more frequently. Newly seeded or
sodded lawns require more watering than
established lawns. This is to build strong,
healthy roots. However, its often not a
good idea to sod or seed in the height of
summer, so homeowners planning to do
so should consult a professional before
going forward with any project.
Choose a drought-resistant grass.
For those who live in areas that frequently
experience drought, a grass thats
drought-resistant could be the best option.
Grasses that are drought-resistant include
Bermuda grass, tall fescue and Zoysia
grass. Homeowners who want to replace
their existing grass with a more drought-
resistant species should consult a local
lawn care professional for advice as to
which grass is most likely to thrive in that
particular climate or region.
Paving Stones Versus
Concrete
When designing your outdoor land-
scapes and spaces, the choice between
concrete and pavers is largely one of per-
sonal preference. Each material has its
advantages and disadvantages to consider.

Pavers allow flexibility in color and
pattern. They can also be dug up and
moved around at a later time. Different
types of blocks can be interwoven to cre-
ate a unique pattern. Because pavers are
individual pieces, homeowners may find
that installation is a do-it-yourself project.
There are many different price ranges
for pavers, depending on the size and
material. Some range from a few dollars a
block to much more than that. Many
home-improvement stores sell an array of
pavers, or homeowners can order from a
specialty retailer.
Pavers are often individually set with
sand and leveling gravel. This means that
over time they can settle and become
uneven. Furthermore, because there is
only sand in between, weeds may grow
through the pavers over time, requiring
added maintenance.
Poured concrete is a permanent addi-
tion to the landscape. It cannot be poured
and then reconfigured without major
demolition.
Also, because concrete requires preci-
sion and mastery, it is not something easi-
ly done by a do-it-yourselfer. This means
that a hired mason will have to be called
to pour concrete features. This may make
concrete a more expensive purchase than
individual pavers.
Concrete is a continuous, poured sub-
stance. This means that weeds will not
grow through so there is less maintenance
involved. But it's important to know that
even concrete that has been properly laid
may shift or crack over time from the set-
tling of the ground.
Thanks to innovations in concrete,

County Now Accepting Cartons for Recycling
The Cumberland County Improvement Authority continues to lead the way in
recycling and now accepts cartons mixed with bottles and cans for recycling.
Working in partnership with our municipalities Cumberland County is
number one in New Jersey, said CCIA Board Recycling Chairman Jose
Velez. Now the last drop of milk, juice or soup does not mark the end of a
cartons useful life. The Authority has partnered with RE Community
Recycling to process its bottles and cans and this new material has been
added to the collection stream.
It is simple, just place your empty cartons in your red recycling bin with
you plastic, metal, and glass containers, said Dennis DeMatte, CCIA
Recycling Coordinator. The material will be sorted at the recycling facility
and sent to a mill to be made into recycled paper products and even build-
ing materials.
Examples of these
containers include shelf
stable cartons for juice,
milk, soy milk, soup,
broth, and wine. In the
refrigerated section you
can also recycle milk,
juice and egg substitute
containers. Make sure
they are empty, remove
any straws, and give
them a quick rinse
before placing them in
your recycling bucket.

homeowners who like the look of pavers
without the work can investigate stamped
concrete options, where a pattern is
embossed into the concrete before it dries.
Colors, stains and etching procedures are
also available.
There are a few other distinctions
between these two materials that may also
influence a homeowners decision. Pavers
provide immediate gratification in that
they can be enjoyed shortly after installa-
tion. Concrete, on the other hand, will
require days to dry and cure.
Some town codes require a permit for
pouring concrete because it is a perma-
nent change to the home. Pavers may not
require a permit because they are not per-
manent and can be removed.
When choosing among pavers or con-
crete around a pool or water source, it is
important to select a texture that will not
be slippery when wet. Otherwise acci-
dents may occur.
Scattered Gypsy Moth
Damage This Year
New Jersey Secretary of Agriculture
Douglas H. Fisher recently announced that
gypsy moth caterpillars damaged 1,317
acres of trees in 68 municipalities in 17
counties this spring. More than half the
damage was heavy.
Cumberland County had 17 acres of
gypsy moth damage in Millville and
Vineland. The gypsy moth population in
the state reached its peak in 2008 with
339,240 acres defoliated before the popula-
tion began to decrease in 2009 through a
combination of regular life cycle drop-off,
beneficial fungus activity and natural pred-
ator increases in combination with the
Departments aggressive spray program.

Gypsy Moth Aerial Defoliation survey and
