Skin cancer is the most com-
mon form of cancer in the
United States. Over half of
all new cancers are skin cancers
and more than one million new
cases of skin cancer will be diag-
nosed this year in the U.S.
Approximately 10,000 people willdie of skin cancer this year. Most
skin cancers have a very high cure
rate if detected and treated early.
The primary cause of skin cancer
is excessive sun exposure; other
causes include radiation, viral
infections, trauma, genetics, and
immunosuppression.
Types of Skin Cancers
The majority of all new skin
cancers are basal cell cancers andsquamous cell cancers; melanomas
comprise the rest. More than 76
percent of skin cancer deaths are
from melanoma, and there will be
about 100,000 new cases of
melanoma in 2012. One person
dies of melanoma every hour.
Currently one in 37 Americans
has a lifetime risk of developing
melanoma; this incidence has
more than tripled among
Caucasians between 1980 and2012. If detected in the early
stages, melanoma can be treated
successfully.
Common Warning Signs
A very common and early
potential sign of skin cancer is
known as actinic keratosis (A.K).
A.K. may appear as rough, red,scaly patches, sores or crusts on
the top layer of the skin. Basal cell
and squamous cell cancers arise
within the top layer of the skin as
a scaly area or bump that persists
and bleeds. They usually appear
on the sun-exposed areas of the
body, including the face, forearms,
and neck. Melanoma usuallybegins as a mottled, light-brown-
to-black flat blemish with irregu-
lar borders. It may turn shades of
red, blue or white, crust on the
surface, and bleed.

If youre a parent, whendoes the responsibility of
providing for your children
cease to exist? When they are
18? When they finish trade
school or college? After they
secure their first job? When
you stop working and must be
dependent on your portfolio
to live? When you die? Or isthe answer: it never ends?!
I think about this ques-
tion quite often as a parent of
four wonderful kids. With
over 30 years of asking this
question to hundreds of
prospects and clients, one can
imagine there have been
many answers from couples
and their children, too. Some
couples disagree as to the
answer to my question, caus-ing some deep friction
between them at times. Most
though, agree with their
spouse whether to provide
or not to provide for them up
to or after a certain time in
their childrens lives.
Biblically, it isnt clear.
Regardless of which book you
read, they all describe it about
the same way. The pertinent
pages read: Provide for yourfamily. What the religious
books dont say is for how long

Maybe you're close to
losing it! What the
heck are we talking
about? Diamonds! Every year,
thousands of people lose dia-monds, big and small, from
their settings. Why? Because
over time the gold or plat-
inum that holds the stones
wears away. It's
a fact: If you're
wearing it,
then you're
wearing it
slowly away.
We find that
the average lifeof a prong is
about 10 years.
Jewelr y items
such as neck-
laces and earrings usually
don't get the abuse a ring or
bracelet receives, so prongs
on these pieces tend to last
much longer. Sometimes
prongs aren't worn, but have
been bent, which also can
give a stone an opportunity tofall out.
So what can you do
about it? Well, if you haven't
lost it yet, you should make it
a point to go every so often to
whatever jeweler it is you
trust. Ask the jeweler to
check the integrity of yourprongs and the tightness of
your stones. Most jewelers do
this as a courtesy to their
clients and never charge for
this service. If you don't have
a favorite jeweler or yours is
too far away, we would be
happy to check your jewelry
for you no charge!
What if there is a prob-
lem? The usual fixes and costs
are: repair a bent prong ($10or less), retip a worn prong
(between $12-$20 per
Have you lost it?!
T
he dental and medical
community is viewing
oral health as a majorpillar of overall health.
Having a healthy mouth is
becoming even more impor-
tant to everyone. Here are just
a few statistics that suggest a
strong correlation between
oral and systematic (body)
health.
Research at a recent
American Heart Association
meeting said as few as two
dental cleanings per year canreduce a persons risk of heart
attack by 25 percent.
Dental sleep therapy can
help the 20 million people
who suffer from obstructive
sleep apnea. They are at a
greater risk for cardiovascular
disease. Effective treatment of
sleep apnea patients can add
ten years to their lives.
Appropriate periodontal
(gum) treatment is effectivein lowering the A1C levels in
diabetic patients as most med-
ications, but without adverse
side effects. (A1C level is a
three-month average of the
blood sugar level).Oral inflammation re-
duction in diabetic patients
can reduce the yearly health
care costs by up to 25 percent.
Studies show that Lp-PLA2
levels can be lowered by oral
inflammation reduction. (Lp-
PLA2 is an enzyme related to
cardiovascular disease, con-
gestive heart disease, andstroke.)
Oral bio-film-associated
disease surpassed heart disease
in total cost of health care.
Bacteria live in a bio-film.
These bio-films cause morethan 75 percent of all bacteri-
al infections in humans. Oral
bio-films are associated with
almost all oral infections,
including cavities.
Inflammatory by prod-
ucts similar to those in the
mouth have been implicated
in osteoarthritis.
This new informationwill be changing dentistry.
The dentist will be more than
he has ever been before, being
able to screen or even prevent
medical problems. A total
wellness exam, dental exam,
microbial assessment, genetic
testing, saliva diagnostics, and
health assessment may be the
norm with dental visits in the
future.
The next part in this
series will describe currentand future medical testing
that dentists will be able to
perform.

and under what conditions.
They do not say provide when
you are alive or when you are
dead. The books fail to men-
tion if you must provide when
you are sick or when you are
well. Nor do they say when
you are young or old. If I may
paraphrase, they just say to
provide for your family. Does
this mean that providing for
my family is all encompassing?
Does this mean without end,
in duration of time or dura-
tion of your funds? Does this
translate into: I should do
without, so my children may
prosper? Is there a limit to my
provisions?
Interestingly, providing
can be interpreted as an edu-
cation in a profession or trade,
so that they may become self-
sufficient, eventually being
able to provide for their own
children. This concept works
very well for most families, but
sometimes there are bumps in
the road, like when the child
loses his job or gets divorced,
with some children moving
back home with the parents
that celebrated their chil-
drens departure from the nest,
only to find them repatriated
under the parental roof years
later.
Let me offer a suggestion
to this dilemma. It is incum-
bent among parents to teach
their children, or if they are
unable to themselves, provide
from experts an education in
financial matters. Further, a
parental boost of opening and
funding a long-term savings or
investment account would be
a wise choice in exposing
their children to the nuances
of money matters, removing
the fears, mystique, and
shroud of darkness surround-
ing the subject of money. The
days of opening a passbook
savings account for the kids as
their entire financial educa-
tion has gone the way of thedinosaur. Mutual funds, ETFs,
individual stocks and bonds,
life insurance and annuities,
property and casualty insur-
ance, and personal and
employer-related retirement
plans must be a part of the
curriculum at a minimum.
Investment strategies such as
buy and hold, dollar cost aver-
aging, the Rules of 72 and
115, and the Trinity Methodof Investing must also be
included. Developing good
habits of living below one's
means and Dont buy it
unless you can pay for it are
rules that should be memo-
rized like times tables in ele-
mentary school.
As important as it is to
grow a portfolio, it is also
imperative to learn how to
protect a portfolio from all of
the negative forces in life that
can compromise it. One day
your childs portfolio may well
become his major source of
income during his retirement
years.
I advise my clients that
to lend money to your adult
kids is really a gift and to
expect its repayment would be
unwise. Though we teach
them to replenish the well
from which they drink so it
will have the ability to bring
forth life-saving revenue once
again, it usually goes unheed-
ed. There are always excep-
tions, but my experience has
taught me pragmatism.
Yes, an education is one
way of providing. Helping
them with the down payment
for their first home purchase is
another. Sharing your morays
and feelings about money is a
form of providing, as is provid-
ing sound financial advice.
Receiving a big inheritance or
a lawsuit settlement are oth-
ers. However, to leave a large
lump sum at your demise is
hollow and without meaning
unless accompanied by a plan
to protect, preserve, and per-
petuate it for themselves, your
grandchildren, and beyond.
Each of us as individuals
has ideas and thoughts about
providing for ourselves andour spouses or life partners
once we stop earning a pay-
check. We think about leav-
ing our kids an inheritance
but not an entitlement, and if
there are grandchildren, a lot
of grandparents desire to pro-
vide for them in some way as

O
dds are during your
daily scratching and
petting session with
your dog or cat there will come
a time when you find a lump or
bump. Don't panic! Fido isn't
dying, but he does need to take
a trip to the veterinarian.
As they age, dogs and cats,
like people, will develop warts
and masses. The most common
time of life for tumors to begin
to form is middle age, around 5
years and older. Not all tumors
mean your pet has cancer.
Any animal, from the
very young to the very old, can
develop a skin or subcutaneous
growth. Many tumors are
benign. Benign tumors do not
spread to other organs or tis-
sues. Sometimes benign tumors
need to be removed because
they impinge on surrounding
structures, thereby causing
problems. Also, if they might
break open and cause infection,
they need to be removed.
If you find a mass
(growth) on your pet, ask your
veterinarian to examine it.
Your veterinarian will aspirate
the mass, which means using a
needle to collect a sample of
the cells inside, or suggest a
biopsy where a larger tissue
sample is taken. Cats are less
prone than dogs are to develop-
ing skin and subcutaneous
tumors, but both types of pets
will need veterinary care for a
growth.
Many dogs get lipomas as
they age. A lipoma is a benign
fatty tumor that feels like a soft
mass. It is common in older
animals. When we aspirate it,
we just see fat. No treatment is
necessary unless it is causing
problems for neighboring areas.
Lipomas are typically suspected
by your veterinarian feeling
them, but some more serious
malignant tumors can feel sim-
ilar and therefore a lipoma
should only be diagnosed by
taking a sample of the lump
with a needle aspirate or biopsy.
Unfortunately, some
tumors are malignant, or can-
cerous. If your vet-
erinarian thinks a
mass may be malig-
nant, more diagnos-
tic tests need to be
done. These tumors
can and usually do
spread to other
organs, causing
problems through-
out the body.
Where a tumor will
spread depends on the type of
tumor.
Treatment for these
malignant tumors is usually sur-
gical removal and can be fol-
lowed by either chemotherapy
or radiation, depending on the
tumor type. Radiation therapy
is recommended when not all
of the tumor can be removed
surgically. Chemotherapy is
used when there is a high risk
that the tumor will spread to
other parts of the body.
When you notice a lump
or bump on your pet, it is best
to have a veterinarian look at it
soon. Many pets have lumps all
their lives that remain benign,
but if a lump is malignant, your
pet has a better prognosis if
treated early.

If you notice a mole on
your skin, follow the ABCD
rule for melanoma:
Asymmetry: one half does
not match the other.
Border Irregularity: the edges
are ragged or notched.
Color: the pigment is not uni-
form; shades of tan, brown or
black are present.
Diameter: the width is more
than six millimeters, about the
size of a pencil eraser.
A mole that has increased
in size, a new mole, or a mole
that is different or ugly
requires prompt medical atten-
tion. Prevention and early
detection are key. In order to
prevent AK's and skin cancer,
you should follow these three
steps:
1.Wear sunscreen of at least
SPF 15, wear protective cloth-
ing, and avoid the sun between
10 a.m. and 4 p.m.
2.Perform periodic self-exami-
nations.
3.See your dermatologist
immediately if you suspect skin
cancer.

value. Another is at 227

architectural value, and the
third is at 43 Perrin Ave. to
honor the old Schuyler House
there. The Commission had
had 15 properties designated
as local historic landmarks in
the borough, most of which

In an era of over-the-top,
ultra-expensive birthday
parties whose extrava-
gance rivals lavish weddings,
some might find it invigorat-
ing to scale things down and
host a pool party.
A pool party is an ideal
way to host a birthday or
other special event without
having to do a lot of plan-
ning. All that is typically
needed is an available pool
and party participants ready
to have a good time.
Many people mistakenly
think that a pool party is
something that can only be
done during the warm weath-
er. Actually, you can plan a
pool party any time of the
year. Many fitness gyms,
schools and scuba certifica-
tion locations open their
pools up to public parties.
Therefore, whether the event
is held in June or January,
chances are there is a pool
available that can accommo-
date the crowd.
One main advantage to
a pool party is that the pool is
the entertainment factor for
the guests. There's no need to
spend hours thinking up
games or other forms of
entertainment. Swimming,
splashing and jumping into
the water will keep many
guests occupied for hours. If
you prefer more structure,
consider relay races, diving
games and water volleyball.

tions when preparing the

Are you tired of a wet
basement? Let A-1
Sta-Dry Water-

waterproofing your wet base-
ment! The rainy season is
upon us and for many home-
owners that means a wet
basement, which is no fun at
all. So what can you do to
prevent the annual seepage
in your basement? Call A-1

A-1 Stay-Dry Water-

Whether finished or not,
there is little worse than a
flooded basement. Besides
the loss of personal items, the
aftermath of flooding or seep-
age may result in mold
growth. Sheetrock, flooring,
furniture, furnace, hot water
heater, washer and dryer
often are ruined. It is a
headache and heartache that
can be avoided.
With all of the newwaterproofing companies out
there today, it may be diffi-
cult and stressful trying to
figure who to use. A-1 Sta-

Animals are impor-tant members of
many households.
Although a pet parent may
love a wagging tail or the
sweet purr of love, he or she
may not enjoy the odors that
usually permeate from a pet.All animals give off
some type of aroma. Humans
have different grooming
products that can help them
smell fresh and clean. Pets
cannot control their own
odor and must rely on theirowners to address any issues.
There are different ways to
keep smells at bay and pre-
vent new ones from happen-
ing.
Identify the odor
Pets emanate odors for differ-
ent reasons. Some aromas
may be linked to the pet,
while others may involve the
pet's waste. Still others may
be indicative of illness and
should be treated immediate-ly. Once the source of the
smell is identified, it is easy
to take action to alleviate it.
Clean pets
Naturall y, a clean animal
smells much better than a
dirty one. Dogs and cats may
accumulate bacteria in their
fur as well as organic matter
that gets stuck and decays.
When animals groom them-
selves, the saliva applied tothe fur through licking also
may be prone to bacteria
growth; and eventually their
fur can start to smell. Pet
owners with dogs or cats that
have long fur around the face
may find their pet's fur gets
dragged through the water
bowl and food dish, attract-
ing particles that can end up
leading to smells.
Some pets also engagein scent camouflage,
according to veterinarian
Janet Crosby. The pet may
roll around in the grass or
something odoriferous to
mask his own scent, and this
can also be a source of foul
odors.
Considering the fur can
be a prime source of odor
problems, it is advisable to
groom the pet as needed.Check with a veterinarian to
find out how frequently the
pet may need to be bathed.
Dogs that have oily skin may
need frequent baths. Cats
may not need baths often but
can benefit from a thorough
brushing to remove matting
and any debris caught in the
fur.
If grooming is not some-
thing a pet owner enjoys, heor she can sign up with a pro-
fessional groomer for regular
appointments for the pet.
The groomer may be able to
establish a schedule that will
help control odor.
Illness
Certain pet illnesses elicit a
certain smell. If a dog has an
ear infection, there could be
an unpleasant scent emanat-

ing from the ear. Pets that
have tooth decay and gumdisease will have poor breath.
A pet with gastrointestinal
upset may have flatulence or
diarrhea. Skin problems like
mange may lead to open
sores or abscesses that can
smell foul as well.
Dogs and cats also have
anal glands that contain an
oily, smelly substance. The
glands are usually naturally
expressed during a bowelmovement. However, if the
glands become impacted or
fail to drain, this can lead to
leakage and odor. The glands
also may rupture or become
infected.
If a pet smell doesnt go
away with routine bathing, it
is advisable to take the ani-
mal to the vet for a checkup.
If an underlying medical
issue is identified, the vet can
prescribe a treatment that
will make the pet smell and
feel better.

WasteIt is well known that waste
excreted from the body does
not smell pleasant. Animals
who are allowed to relieve
themselves indoors, such as
birds and cats, might create
some unpleasant odors as
well. To avoid such unpleas-
antness, stay on top of clean-
ing waste receptacles. Pets
generally don't like to use
areas that smell poorly, either.Keep everything clean so the
odors will be limited and the
pet may not stray elsewhere to
do his or her business.
Dogs, especially puppies,
may take some time to get
acclimated to going to
the bathroom outdoors.Accidents can happen
indoors. It is essential to clean
urine and feces accidents
quickly and to remove all
traces of the odor. This way
the house will not smell and
the animal will not have
marked his or her scent.
Otherwise the dog may return
to the same area over and
over.
Pet odors can make ahome interior smell unpleas-
ant. Instead of covering up
the problem, pet parents can
get to the root of the problem
and banish odors for good.

Leading the summer
blockbusters this year is
Disney and Marvels
latest project, the box office
hit The Avengers, which
brings many of your favorite
superheroes together for the
first time on the big screen.
Join the Avengers Initiative
with Captain America, Iron
Man, Thor, the IncredibleHulk, Black Widow, and
Hawkeye, under the leader-
ship of Nick Fury, as they take
on the demigod Loki in an
epic battle for the salvation of
humanity.
Fans who have seen the
superheroes in their prior
films and stayed for the end
credits will recall each hero
being approached by a myste-
rious man identified as NickFury (Samuel L. Jackson)
with an opportunity called
the Avengers Initiative. The
Avengers is the long awaited
assembly of this team. After
Loki crosses realms and
arrives on Earth, he plans a
devious plot to enslave
mankind in an act of revenge
on his brother, Thor. When
Loki begins taking humans
captive to open a portal to theother realms to summon his
army, Fury assembles the
recruited Avengers. Not used
to working together, the
Avengers face one of their
greatest challenges yet: set-
ting aside their differences
and their pride to become a
team. Each character faces his
own flaws that he must over-
come in order for the
Avengers to come togethersuccessfully and defeat Loki in
order to save the world.
In addition to Samuel L.
Jackson, the all-star cast is led
by Robert Downey, Jr. as Iron
Man, Chris Evans as Captain
America, and Scarlett
Johanssen as Black Widow.
The Avengers is filled
with intense action scenes
from the opening until the
very end. The film is alsoavailable in 3-D, which great-
ly enhances the special effects
and provides a more enter-
taining experience. In addi-
tion to stunning special
effects, the film is overall
clean and family-friendly.
Marvel fans will not be disap-
pointed as the film is not sim-
ply just superheroes in action,
but also contains a well-
developed and thought-outplotline. The film does an
excellent job of bringing four
different storylines together
and intertwining them to pro-
duce a successful and enter-
taining story that fans will
greatly enjoy.
Filled with suspense,
action, and humor, The
Avengers provides an enter-
taining movie experience for
audiences of all ages. Afterseeing the film, one can clear-
ly understand why it is break-
ing box office records. Dont
forget to stay for the end cred-
its for two extra scenes. For an
even better experience and
more action, see the film in
Imax 3-D; it is well worth it!
The Avengers is rated PG-13
for intense sequences of
action and is now playing in
theaters everywhere.

Burger DeLuxe in Wayne
is far from your average
burger joint. Although
branding says
burger, the
menu is full of
heavenly mani-
festations in the
form of specialty
entrees, home-
made appetizers,and knee-weak-
ening desserts.
I need to
preface this
review by telling
you that I just came back from
a four-month stint in Scotland,
where ... well, lets just say the
food variety is subpar. As a self-
acclaimed foodie and recover-
ing glutton, a country with
restaurants that serve half por-tions and then charge double
does not jive well for me. Since
Ive been back in the States I
have been on a rampage,
absolutely gorging myself with
all the best foods in the area.
When we were contacted by
Zeki Yesilyurt at Burger
DeLuxe, I was all too happy to
try it out.
Zeki started off by bring-
ing us some of his homemadeappetizers, stressing that the
majority of the food served is
homemade. He placed a large
bowl full of loaded nachos, a
plate with warm pita neatly
arranged around
a bowl of some of
the best hummus
Ive tasted, and
savory spinach
pastry pies filled
with creamy feta.
Clearly each dishwas made from
scratch, explod-
ing with flavor
and prepared
with the proper
consistency. Additionally, each
appetizer Zeki brought out had
a specific sauce to complement
it. Guiltlessly, I dove into the
nachos, with alternating bites
of the spinach pies and pita,
almost forgetting that therewas much more to come.

Burgers are the obvious
specialty at Burger DeLuxe and
certainly for good reason. My
mind was blown at some of
Zekis interpretations of the
hamburger, from the French
Onion Burger to the Salmon
Burger, and even the spicy En
Fuego. The second I bit into
the French Onion Burger, I
knew it was true love. Abrothy juice poured from the
meat as bits of caramelized
onions and Swiss cheese
joined it. The only way I could
describe my experience with
this burger was feeling like I
had actually bitten into French
Onion Soup.
My partner took one bite
of the En Fuego burger, with its
jalapeos, habaneros, and pep-
per jack cheese, and instantlygrabbed for his homemade
watermelon lemonade. With a
grin on his face, he exclaimed,
Now that is on fire! Each
bite of meaty goodness con-
firmed for us why the Burger
DeLuxe burger was recently
rated one of the top five in
New Jersey.
Beyond the burgers are
several specialty entrees,
including the creamy Skillet
Mac and Cheese, the pan-
seared salmon, and even a fishand chips platter. Salads and
sandwiches are also available,
including the BD Grilled
Cheese, oozing with four
cheeses, bacon, and tomato. I
will dream about that grilled
cheese for the rest of my life.
Served on pressed sourdough
bread and lightly crusted with
Parmesan, it was easily the best
Ive ever had. But thats not
all.The dessert menu was
calling no, shouting my
name. Desserts are hit or miss
at any restaurant. Some have a
long list but nothing exciting,
while others have only one or
two available. This list had
both the quantity and quality
sweet-tooths crave, including
fried Oreos and cheesecake, a
Toll House cookie sundae, a
wide variety of specialty cup-
cakes (including cookie dough,
which I inhaled in seconds),and of course, milkshakes.

Be sure to have plenty of fun
pool toys available, such asfloats and water guns. Have a
few extra pairs of eye goggles
on hand as well as sun block
(if the party is outdoors) in
case swimmers forgot their
own.
