Boston Louis Jewelers is

happy to announce its

exciting addition of the

Nomina tion line of jewel ry.

Nomination bracelets were very

popular several years back and

since then have evolved into

a very extensive silver fash-ion jewelry collection with

styles that are right in line

with todays top designers.

All of the pieces are crafted

in Italy, renowned for some

of the best-made jewelry in

the world, and most are in

the very affordable $100 to

$300 range. An excellent

feature of high-end Italian

silver jewelry is that it is

treated with a metal fromthe platinum family called

Rhodium. Rhodium treating

not only gives silver jewelry the

beautiful clean look of platinum

or white gold, it more important-

ly keeps silver from tarnishing.

Boston Louis Jewelers

is extensively carrying the

Nomination Romantica suite

just in time for Valentines Day.The Romantica suite consists of

beautiful modern-styled sterling

silver necklaces, bracelets and

earrings in filigree heart shapes

that are accented with 18K rose

gold overlay details.

Boston Louis is also carrying

Nomination s Sorre nto and

Sofia suites. The Sorrento fea-

tures geometric circles with sun,

cloud or heart-shaped cut-

though patterns, whereas theSofia suite uses perfectly cut pas-

tel-colored semi-precious gems

such as lavender and green

amethyst, light blue topaz,

smokey, citrine, and green/gold

quartz complimented by brilliant

white cubic zirconias. All are

gorgeous, and all are pretty

enough to be worn with formal

attire, but are designed foreveryday.

The wonderful thing about

this Nomination line is that with

many matching earring, pendant

and bracelet sets available, you

can add to your jewelry wardrobe

with each special occasion. Any

piece in this stunning line is sure

to please that special someone in

your life!

Unfortunately, the ob-

stacles to securing a

successful portfolio

are overwhelming. In fact,

some people believe there are

more reasons for financial fail-ure than success. These

include: dividend income tax,

ordinary income tax, state

income tax, capital gains tax,

commissions, management

fees, manager/advisor or self-made investment mistakes,

inflation, changes in govern-

mental policies or government

grid lock (aka political risk),

currency risk, stock market

crashes and corrections, bond

selection risks (such as issuer

default or downgrades),

abysmal anemic interest rates

on savings vehicles, and virtu-

ally no interest on cash at all!

What is the poor con-sumer/saver/investor/employ-

ee/self-employed/retiree to do

or have to look forward to and

how will they accumulate

enough capital against this vast

array of obstacles? How willthey be able to secure an

income necessary to survive

and prosper during their retire-

ment years? How can they

assure a successful journey into

retirement and the peace of

mind of a secured continual

income stream from their port-

folio once they make the final

announcement: Ive workedmy last today; Im now retired!

Are these good questions?

Dont the facts speak loudly for

themselves? Are you confident,

complacent or contrite about

your financial future? Would

you like to guarantee your

results or know in advance the

least you can accomplish in

portfolio accumulation andminimum monthly or annual

income that would be sustain-

able for the rest of your life,

and/or your spouses lifetime,

without it reducing or it com-

ing to an end?

Think about this for a

moment: from 1992 through

2011, according to Blackrock,

the 20-year annualized growthrate of oil was 8.6 percent,

stocks performed 7.8 percent,

and bonds rose at an annualized

rate of 6.5 percent. Over the

course of these years, the annu-

alized rate of inflation was 2.5

percent and homes increased

2.3 percent per year. However,

Despite incredible ad-

vances in dentistry

over the past 30

years, dentists face a new

challenge to their success inmanaging and treating your

bacteria-related oral health

problems: Stress! Doctors

consider stress to be a cause

(or at least factor) of not

only cardiovascular, autoim-

mune and mental diseases,

but also dental issues. While

stress-related dental prob-

lems were known to ancient

societies thousands of years

ago, recent upturns in stresslevels are making these oral

health issues much more

common. Stress may affect

dental health in different

ways:

IMMUNITY: Stress can

reduce the bodys immunity

to disease by changing the

production of the normal

inner steroid from the

suprarenal glands. This pro-duces a malfunction in our

cells. They are unable to oust

foreign bodies like bacteria

when they invade the body.

Since immune cells are the

bodys first line of defense,

this is not good. As a result,

gingivitis and gum disease arelikely to develop among

stressed individuals. Forms of

tooth decay are also com-

monly reported in stressed

patients.

GRINDING AND

CLENCHING: Most grind-

ing and clenching occursduring sleep, so a large per-

centage of grinders and

clenchers dont even realize

they are doing it. Grinding

and clenching increase the

frequency of contact between

the upper and lower teeth,

especially at night. Whileupper and lower teeth are

typically in contact 20-30

minutes each day, those who

clench and grind make

upper-lower contact several

hours a day. While this habit,

called buxism, may be

annoying, it may also lead to

dental health issues such as:

HEADACHES: Tenderness,

fatigue and spasm in the mus-

cles of the face and neck,

which may result in

headaches.

TMJ: Damage to the tem-poromandibular joint in

front of the ear. TMJ may

cause minor problems like

clicking when opening and

closing the mouth, or more

severely, can prevent the

lower jaw from functioning

properly.

DISTORTION: If clench-

ing and grinding become

chronic, the cheek musclesmay enlarge or swell, which

can result in facial distortion.

TEETH FILING AND

CAVITIES: Not only may

grinding and clenching cause

teeth to be filed down;

smooth, V-shaped cavities

may develop, resulting in

tooth sensitivity.

FRACTURES: Damage tothe gums causes teeth to

move more freely and ulti-

mately can cause tooth frac-

tures. Additionally, dental

restorations like crowns and

bridges are at risk of fracture.

How do you treat grind-

ing and clenching? Depend-

ing on the severity of the

case, Dr. Brusco may offer

you options such as night-

mouth guards, muscle relax-ants, mouth rehabilitation,

orthodontics, bite adjust-

ment, muscle exercises and

medications.

Valentines Day facts and superstitions

Every February 14th

people around the

world exchange gifts,

chocolates and romantic

greetings for a day set aside for

lovers. Many traditions are

followed, all in the name of

St. Valentine. Still, people

may not understand why such

customs are upheld. Much of

the history of Valentines Day

and St. Valentine himself is

shrouded in mystery, and

much of whats widely accept-

ed is inaccurate. To set the

record straight, here are some

facts about the holiday.

Valentines Day is believed

to have originated from a cel-

ebration in Rome during the

fifth century. This celebration

paid tribute to St. Valentine,

a catholic priest. Other histo-

rians surmise it was a way to

Christianize the pagan holi-

day of Lupercalia, which was

a fertility festival. Included in

the traditions were boys and

girls drawing names from a

box and exchanging gifts.

The Catholic Church

acknowledges at least three

different saints named Val-

entine or Valentinus.

All of the stories surround-

ing St. Valentine whether

they are disputed or not

paint him as a sympathetic

and heroic individual.

Valentines Day greetings

have been popular from the

Middle Ages onward, though

they have been usually verbal

in nature.

The oldest known written

valentine still in existence

today was a poem written in

1415 by Charles, duke of

Orleans, to his wife while he

was imprisoned in the tower

of London following his

capture at the battle ofAgincourt.

Valentines Day is celebrat-

ed in the United States,

Canada, Mexico, the United

Kingdom, France, and

Australia.

Valentines Day and moth-

ers day are the most popular

holidays to give flowers.

According to hallmark,

women purchase 85 percent

of all valentines.

According to the greeting

card association, an estimated

one billion Valentines Day

cards are sent each year, mak-

ing Valentines Day the sec-

ond largest card-sending holi-

day of the year behind

Christmas.

Candy was among the earli-

est Valentines Day gifts and

remains a popular gift today.

Some tales suggest that the

type of bird a girl watches on

Valentines Day predicts her

future husband. A bluebird

indicates a happy man, while

a sparrow indicates a poor

man.

In medieval times, girls con-

sumed unusual foods on

Valentines Day in the belief

it would make them dream of

their future husbands.

Love is a powerful word

that describes one of

the most potent human

emotions. The word is believed

to have evolved from theProto-Indo-Europeans word

leubh, which described care

and desire nearly five thousand

years ago. The word was incor-

porated into Old English as

lufu, a noun meaning deep

affection and a verb lufianmeaning to be very fond of.

Are you one of the

many consumers who

were advised to buy a

hearing aide by your doctor,

spouse, family member or

friend? Is it sitting in the very

expensive case it came in,

unused because it just doesnt

work well? Maybe others

should just speak louder! You

will find that you are not alone.

There are many adults frustrat-

ed with hearing changes and

the limitations that it may

place on them. Dinners out at a

popular restaurant or large fam-

ily events may not be as enjoy-

able if you have difficulty par-

ticipating in the conversation.

Adult aural rehabilitation serv-

ices focus on adjusting to your

specific hearing loss. Not all

hearing loss is the same and is

sometimes mistaken for memo-

ry loss. An aural rehabilitation

program assists in making the

best use of your individual

hearing aids, exploring assistive

devices and taking charge of

your communication. It is

important to understand your

specific hearing loss. A better

understanding of your hearing

loss will help you gain new

insights as to why you think

people are mumbling, why you

have difficulty with voices and

background noise, and others

specific questions.

Even if you don t have

hearing aids but have a hearing

loss, aural rehabilitation servic-

es can give you strategies to

improve listening and commu-

nication effectiveness. If you do

have new hearing aids, through

training and practice, you will

learn new listening habits and

communication strategies.

Audiologic rehabilitation pro-

vides listening strategies that

can improve communication.

You are not alone with a

hearing loss. Aural rehab can

give you the opportunity to

learn from professionals effec-

tive strategies on how to

handle traveling, meetings,

appointments, going to the

hospital, telephone conversa-

tions, hearing in theaters, and

difficult family members or

work associates. Aural rehabili-

tation will not sell you new

hearing, but it will introduce

you to strategies and tips that

can improve understanding

and hearing in everyday life

and benefit from an improved

quality of life!

Catherine Gallo is a

speech and language patholo-

gist at Cedar Crest and runs the

aural therapy program. For

aural rehabilitation program, or

the average investor saw his

portfolio grow by an annual

rate of just 2.1 percent, under-

performing inflation!

Let me ask again. If you

could, would you design a

guarantee right now, in

advance, of the income your

portfolio would pay you as a

lifetime income beginning five

years from now, 10 years from

now or even 20 years in your

future? Would you like to guar-

antee the minimum income

growth in your portfolio, for up

to 20 years straight, knowing

that great market perform-

ance, above the baseline guar-

antee, would make that

income even greater? I bet you

would sleep better with the

knowledge that negative mar-

kets would never reduce your

income, yet positive perform-

ance certainly would acceler-

ate and enhance it!

Fantasy you may say?

Bah, humbug! This cant pos-

sibly be real! No way! Pie in

the sky! I am happy to report

that what I just described is

available and verifiably true,

and can be (and has been)

done for millions of people

across the country and you

can do it too! There are many

companies, contracts and ben-

efits that may be explored,

offering everything discussed

in this column and guaranteed

by the insurance industry.

Whether you are a risk-taker

or the most conservative

investor, there is, a guaranteed

investment and portfolio alter-

native available to you, but it

will not fall into your lap. You

must initiate the conversation

and request more information.

You must take a proactive

approach to your portfolio and

the need for involvement with

its management, diversifica-

tion and oversight. Recent tax

legislation, volatile markets

and future dependence on

your portfolio for life support

make this study of guaranteed

investment alternatives and

strategies an imperative course

for everyone who desires a

financially stress-free and

independent retirement.

12/28

Valentines Day is

upon us. This is a day

to celebrate our

loved ones and show them we

care. We also have to take

care of our four-legged loved

ones, as some Valentines Day

gifts and ideas may be haz-

ardous to our pets.

The most obvious warn-

ing is: Dont let your pets eat

chocolate. Chocolate is one

of the traditional gifts on

Valentines Day but can be

very dangerous to pets, even

life threatening. The toxic

compounds in chocolate

are methylxanthines, mainly

theobromine and, less impor-

tantly, caffeine. The amounts

of theobromine and caffeine

vary with the type of choco-

late. For instance, unsweet-

ened (Bakers) chocolate con-

tains 8 to 10 times the

amount of theobromine as

milk chocolate. This is a very

common toxicity in dogs and

seen less in cats just by nature

of their eating habits.

Clinical signs of

chocolate toxicity usually

occur within six to 12 hours

of ingestion. Theobromine

affects the body as a central

nervous system stimulant,

cardiovascular stimulant,

increases blood pressure and

nausea. Therefore, common

signs of chocolate toxicity

are: vomiting, diarrhea,

hyperactivity, tremors,

seizures, fast heart rate and,

in severe cases, death. If

your pet ingests chocolate,

contact your veterinarian or

poison control immediately

for treatment. Also, knowing

the type and quantity of

chocolate ingested is helpful.

Another potential haz-

ard for pets on this sweet

holiday is any sugar-free gum

or candy. They commonly

contain the sugar substitute

xylitol. Signs of xylitol toxici-

ty can be seen as quickly as 30

minutes and causes a sudden

drop in the bodys blood sugar

(hypoglycemia). This may

result in weakness, depres-

sion, loss of coordination,

seizures, coma and even liver

failure. Treatment should be

initiated immediately if inges-

tion occurs.

Some holiday flowers,

though they are romantic,

can be toxic for your pet. The

biggest culprits are lilies.

They are highly toxic to cats,

so make sure your cats cant

get near them, or choose a

different variety of flower but

not tulips (the bulbs are

the most toxic). Amaryllis,

daisies, chrysanthemums or

any flowers with thorns may

be potentially dangerous

flowers.

Leftover gift-

wrapping or decora-

tions are enticing

for curious cats.

Make sure all rib-

bons, bows and

other wrapping

are out of your

pets reach and

cleaned up. Cats

especially like

chewing on strings or rib-

bons which can cause chok-

ing or worse, an obstruction

in the intestines that could

require emergency surgery.

Candles are also a nice

touch on Valentines Day

but not to paws and fur.

Dont leave candles unat-

tended, as pets can easily

be burned or the candles

could be knocked over, caus-

ing a fire.

One last warning is not

to give pets as gifts. Puppies

and kittens are very cute and

cuddly but owning a pet is a

big undertaking. Purchasing a

pet should be done in a

responsible way and only after

a lot of research. If youre

ready, you should consider

adopting a pet from your local

shelter. These steps can be

done together and are roman-

tic and rewarding.

Have a sweet and safe

Valentines Day!

A safe Valentines Day for your pet By Dr. Matthew Krupnick

As you assemble the

paperwork youll

need to file your

2012 tax return, take a minute

to review some last-minute

moves you could make to cut

last years tax bill. Also, pay

attention to deductions you

shouldnt overlook. Heres a

quick checklist.

The American Taxpayer

Relief Act, signed into law on

Jan. 2, 2013, has some tax-

savers for 2012. The law

restored the following tax

breaks for 2012 through 2013:

The optional deduction for

state and local sales taxes in

lieu of deducting state and

local income taxes.

The above-the-line deduc-

tion for up to $4,000 for qual-

ified tuition and related

expenses.

The above-the-line deduc-

tion for up to $250 of class-

room supplies purchased by

teachers.

The exclusion from income

for cancellation of mortgage

debt of up to $2 million on a

principal residence.

The deduction for mortgage

insurance premiums.

The tax credit for making

energy-saving home improve-

ments.

If youre in business, the

new law included some tax

breaks you shouldnt overlook.

The first-year expensing

option for equipment purchas-

es in 2012 was increased to

$500,000, with a $2,000,000

total limit. The research tax

credit, the work opportunity

credit, and the 15-year recov-

ery period for qualified lease-

hold and retail improvements

and qualified restaurant prop-

erty were all made available

for 2012.

If you qualify, you have

until April 15 to make a

deductible 2012 IRA contri-

bution. The maximum 2012

contribution is $5,000 if

youre under age 50 and

$6,000 if youre 50 or older.

The $2,500 deduction

for student loan interest is still

available for 2012 and can be

taken even if you dont item-

ize deductions on your return.

The tax law gets more

complicated every time Con-

gress passes another bill, but

dont let your tax bill creep

higher than necessary through

oversight. Call our office if

you want details on any of

these or other ways to cut your

2012 tax bill.

story wont be disappointed by

this musical tale of two young-

sters who fall in love despite

being from rival New York

City gangs.

The Philadelphia Story

(1940): Featuring screen leg-

ends Cary Grant, Katharine

Hepburn and James Stewart,

the movie focuses on the com-

plications that arise as a

socialite prepares to marry.

Cary Grant plays the ex-hus-

band of Hepburn, who must

deal with the simultaneous

arrival of both Grant and

Stewart, a journalist who

arrives to get the scoop on her

pending nuptials. Stewart

earned an Oscar for his per-

formance in the film, which is

also credited for helping to

revive Hepburns career after a

series of box office flops.

Casablanca (1942): Per-

haps no film is more synony-

mous with romance than this

classic starring Humphrey

Bogart and Ingrid Bergman as

former lovers who reconnect

one night in a pressure-packed

African encounter during

World War II. The two ex-

lovers still harbor feelings

for one another, though

Bergmans Ilsa has moved on

and married a resistance

leader who needs the help of

Bogarts Rick to escape Nazi

forces hot on his trail. The

film features many classic

moments.

The Princess Bride (1987):

Couples who prefer a love

story, as told through a fairy

tale might want to consider

this Rob Reiner-directed film

starring Cary Elwes as a farm

boy who falls in love with

Buttercup, the beautiful

daughter of his employer. An

ensemble cast that memorably

includes Billy Crystal, Mandy

Patinkin and pro wrestler

Andre the Giant contributes

to this hilarious classic that

follows the farm boys heroic

efforts to be with the woman

he loves.

Homeowners planning

a kitchen remodel are

no doubt considering

whether to include a kitchen

island in the new design.

When the space allows, an

island can be a fine way to

enhance the look of a kitchen

and impart an upscale appeal.

Interest in kitchen islands

has grown steadily for the past

several decades. Introduced in

the 1970s, islands became a

popular place for guests to con-

gregate and provided extra

counter space for meal prepara-

tion and entertaining. The

suburban migration led to big-

ger homes with larger kitchens.

Through the 1980s and 1990s,

homes grew even larger, and

islands became a popular fea-

ture of kitchens across the

country.

The increase in food-based

programming on television has

also contributed to the popu-

larity of kitchen islands. As

more people dabble with

preparing their own gourmet

meals, kitchen islands have

become more convenient.

Although there are many

benefits to an island in the

kitchen, there are also some

disadvantages to kitchen

islands. Weighing all the

options can help homeowners

design a kitchen layout that is

functional, affordable and

practical for the space they

have.

PROS

Arguably the most signifi-

cant advantage to having a

kitchen island is the added

space it provides. Many times

islands are built with cabinetry

that matches the rest of the

kitchen design, and those cab-

inets provide storage space for

pots, pans and other kitchen

tools. Islands may double the

storage space available in the

kitchen.

Kitchen islands are also

advantageous when preparing

meals. Kitchen counter space

can be easily gobbled up by

toaster ovens, rotisserie cook-

ers, microwaves, coffee makers,

and various other countertop

appliances. These appliances

can take up valuable real estate

thats sorely missed when

preparing meals. An island can

be used solely for cooking and

preparation, and some home-

owners have incorporated cut-

ting boards and a prep sink

into the design of the island.

Islands also can be cus-

tomized according to a home-

owners needs. Instead of sim-

ply having cabinetry beneath

the counter, some opt to have

a wine cooler or even a book-

shelf for keeping cookbooks

within reach. An additional

small dishwasher or beverage

refrigerator may be tucked into

the design of the island. Forothers, the island may be a

makeshift kitchen office space.

CONS

Expense is a leading nega-

tive factor with regard to a

kitchen island. The additional

material necessary and the

labor involved in installation

may bust some homeowners

budgets. Stationary islands can

cost several thousand dollars to

install, and this is money a

homeowner may be better off

investing elsewhere.

In smaller kitchens, an

island may be impractical

because of the space limita-

tion. Islands are typically at the

heart of the kitchen and may

interfere with walking space or

cause clearance issues when

the refrigerator door or cabinet

doors are open. For homeown-

ers who find space is at a pre-

mium in the kitchen, an island

may not be the best idea.

However, a rolling island that

can be moved into position

when needed, then stored in a

convenient, out-of-the-way

location might be a viable

option.

Depending on the com-

plexity of a kitchen island, its

installation may extend the

amount of time required to

How to temper chocolate for a Valentines treat

What would Valen-tines Day be

without choco-

late? Candy and chocolate

are often exchanged come

Valentines Day. Though

store-bought confections

might be popular, such gifts

can easily be made at home

as well.

Chocolate satisfies a

sweet tooth, and some

researchers believe chocolateis an aphrodisiac. In the

1980s, doctors at New York

State Psychiatric Institute

explored the possibility that

chocolate could be an aphro-

disiac. When someone is inlove, his or her brain pro-

duces a chemical called

phenyl ethylamine, or PEA,

which acts a lot like an

amphetamine, triggering the

hormones nor epinephrine

and dopamine to create feel-

ings of euphoria. Considering

chocolate naturally contains

PEA, there is reason to

believe that chocolate could

also trigger feelings of happi-ness and love. However,

other chemicals might be

behind these feelings of

euphoria.

Short sales have chang-

ed. Gone are the days ofwaiting six months for

approval, fighting for a release

of deficiency, offering no

incentives to homeowners and

cutting agents commissions.

Most banks today realize that

they fair far better with a short

sale than with foreclosure and

that working with a cooperat-

ing homeowner is not only the

right thing to do, but makes

good business sense.

Why short sale instead ofmodification? If your house is

worth $300,000 and you owe

$400,000, your option of mod-

ification can reduce your pay-

ment to be more affordable.

However, in most cases you

will still owe the full

$400,000. You can wait eight

to 10 years for the market to

rebound and sell for $400,000,

realizing no equity. Or you can

short sell now spend onlytwo years repairing your credit

and purchase another house

three to five years from the

short sale. Now you are build-

ing equity in your new house

and owe nothing on the old

one.

Banks continually send

out modification letters to

homeowners they previously

declined to modify. The truth

is that unless there was a sig-nificant change in the infor-

mation you previously submit-

ted, you will most likely be

given the same negative

response while you are moving

closer to foreclosure.

Listing your home short

sale with the right real estate

is imperative. An agent that

has a proven track record

working with these more com-

plicated sales is a must. The

Century 21 Gemini

LLC Realty congratu-

lates William Linteris

on his accomplishment of

being selected as 2012 Realtor

ice in various charitable

From the early 1990s tothe beginning of this cen-

tury, bigger is better cer-

tainly was the mantra of the

home-building industry. All

across North America buyers

could browse among home

developments boasting homes

of 3,000 square feet or larger

and multiple bedrooms and

bathrooms. But according to

new data, home buyers are

seeking less space today butmore in green amenities.

Research by the Canadian

Home Builders Association

has found that many people

now desire smaller homes with

multipurpose rooms and energy

saving features. Theyre not

ready to trade in their two- and

three-car garages just yet,

though. Plus, a survey of

International Furnishings and

Design Association membersforecasts that McMansions will

become a thing of the past and

more emphasis will be placedon smaller, more eco-friendly

homes. Family rooms will grow

larger, as will kitchens. Other

rooms in the home will disap-

pear, including the living room.

Many homeowners and

potential home buyers realize

that with girth comes a cost. In

todays fragile economy, the

ability to cash in on the dream

of homeownership may come

at the compromise of a smaller,better-planned home.

According to Tim Bailey,

the manager of Avid Canada, a

research and consulting firm for

the building industry, While

many consumers are willing to

forgo space, they are not equat-

ing this with having to forfeit

functionality. Design creativity

is requisite to adapt to this

changing preference.

Here are some things thatyou will and will not find in

newer homes moving forward.

The dining room is becomingextinct, with larger, eat-in-

kitchen/entertaining spaces the

norm. The kitchen will be the

main room of the home and be

renamed the kitchen lounge.

Separate rooms are evolving

into spaces that serve many dif-

ferent purposes.

Although the sizes of bath-

rooms may be scaled back, the

amenities will not. Spa-style

bathrooms with luxurious prod-ucts, high-tech features and tel-

evisions will be on the rise.

The master bedroom suite

may not shrink in size, but it

could be combined to form a

home office and exercise space.

Expect to see more high-tech

offerings, such as voice- or

motion-activation devices in
