t was Fri., Feb. 6, deadline day.my first real
deadline day as the new
editor of MJ Media, and as
I was getting my kids ready
for school I turn my computer on early so Im ready
to finalize all of the press
releases for eight monthly
newspapers and write my
stories. And there it
was.blue screen of death!
For those who do not
know what the blue screen
of death is, Google it cause
Im not exactly sure, but I
do know I could not start
my computer nor get to any
of my files. Lucky me, my
husband-Todd- a brilliant
computer software field
engineer-who was busying
himself downstairs making
breakfasts and lunches,
jumped right on my laptop
and cured my unwelcoming
surprise to the point of full
restore.
As stressful as the situation was, my little mishap
gave me my lead for this
piece which is my introduction of myself as the Editor
of MJ Media LLC. Its not
easy to write about oneself
especially after writing

blue screen of death day, after my husband fixed my computer, I could not connect to the internet. How was I going to
send all of my copy to the publisher? So I
text my husband, who is now down at the
bus stop, and he told me, with frustration,
to turn the little black switch on at the left
of my computer to turn on the WiFi. Who
knew?
When I was a youth in the my schools
marching band, we had the privilege of
performing at Giants Stadiums half-time
show and my friends will remind me to
this day.remember when you asked us
why are those men running toward the
white posts? You may chuckle, but I
have no shame in my ignorance. I did not
grow up watching the Americas most popular past-time of football. My dad was into
wrestling and boxing so thats what we
watched.
I firmly believe that the best journalists
are those who do not know. We ask the best
questions, we ask all the questions. We ask
the questions that most people assume to
know, but many do not.
It is ok to not know. If we knew everything, there would be nothing to talk about
or read about. Ask questions. Wonder.

o sooner are the kiddos back to
school after the holiday break and it
is quickly followed by Presidents
Day break and cold weekends. For those
lucky families that are heading to a tropical
climate or perhaps a ski vacation, it is a welcomed break. For those families that arent
going away, this looming winter can be met
with some anxiety and a huge dose of dread.
There are plenty of weekends between now
and the spring. What to do with the kids so as
parents we dont have to hear, theres nothing to do!!- Im bored!!
Planning is the key. Make a list of things
to do considering the age and interests of all
the participants and let them help with the
planning. Try to plan a nice mix of outdoor
and indoor activities. Try exploring regions
that you dont often get to visit. Take along or
meet another family.
Mountain Creek is the New York/New
Jersey Metro area's closest ski resort.
Located just 47 miles from NYC, Mountain
Creek offers 167 skiable acres on four mountain peaks. They offer 100 percent night skiing and boasts the region's most extensive
snowmaking system. Mountain Creek is also
home to the region's only true All-Mountain

nyone who drives by cant miss it.
Theres this huge bubble right in
front of the Flanders Athletic Club
in Flanders, situated in the front, blocking
view of the pool area and tennis courts.
It may look a little out of character, but
its purpose, by all means, serves as the
hottest and prime spot in the area for
indoor training , sports games and birthday parties. Its the newest indoor sports
turf facility in Northern New Jersey.
Many refer to it as The Bubble but its
real name is Center Court Indoor Sports.
The temporary inflatable dome structure is
an extension of the Flanders Valley Tennis
and Swim Club. Sports teams, trainers,
coaches and players have been traveling
near and far to get out of the cold and keep
up their sports skills.
Its a great spectacle here for local
community and surrounding towns for
sports teams and individual training,
says Matt Blankley, facility manager of
indoor sports. The greatest benefit is you
can train all year round if you have this
facility close to you. Being a soccer coach,
its essential; you can get less behind if you
dont train as much.
While the foundation for the site started at the end of March 2014, the artificial
turf went down in June and then the bubble went up on Oct. 20. An air-filled system, it took two days to get the bubble and
ready to go, says Blankley, a native of
England living in the United States for the
past eight years.
The plan is for the bubble to come
down the last week in May, with the turf
field still in place to be used as an outdoor
space to be rented for various sports, and
then go back up again in the fall when the
colder temperatures return, explains
Blankley.
Its difficult to sell an indoor field in
the summer when you can go to a local
park to play for free, he says. So during
the warmer months, the turf field at Center
Court can be used for clinics and camps,
especially during the summer.
The bubble was erected as an opportunity to try to enhance sport development
in the local area, says Blankley. An
opportunity was brought to the tennis
club, and since the land in front had
already included a commercial license,
there was no obstacle to add on the turf
field with a bubble over it. So why not,
owners figured.
Inside is a giant turf field 100 yards by
50 yards, with nets that divide the area
into five separate fields that measure 20
yards by 50 yards. The state-of- the- art
high performance turf is 2.5 inches deep
manufactured by Shaw Sports Turf with
its proven technology known for its durability.
The bubble also features top quality
lighting for indoor sports, says Blankley.
Its the best illumination to play for
sports indoors. This is the highest quality
dome with lights; you can train until late
at night.
The main lobby contains a couch, bathrooms and huge television for those waiting for the players to finish their session.
Teams for - soccer, lacrosse, field hockey, football and rugby- have been using
the bubble for practice, supplemental
training, tournaments and leagues. The
facility can also be rented out for birthday
parties featuring multi-sports parties.
Soccer coaches from all over have
been using it, says Blankley, who also
works as a soccer coach in Chatham and
Center Court Soccer Club in Gillette. In
our lacrosse league, teams from West

ultiple Sclerosis (MS) is an
autoimmune disease that affects
the central nervous system- the
brain and spinal cord. MS affects twice as
many women than men and is most commonly diagnosed between ages 20 and 50,
but it can be seen at any age.
Approximately 400,000 Americans have
MS and, every week, about 200 people are
diagnosed. There is no cure for this often
debilitating disease.
Although outside the coverage area of
MJ Media, an excellent facility- The
Multiple Sclerosis Comprehensive Care
Center in Livingston- is situated close
enough for people who are diagnosed with
MS to receive quality comprehensive care.
MS is caused by damage that happens to
the myelin sheath. This sheath is the protective covering that surrounds nerve cells.
The damage that happens to the myelin
sheath causes nerve signals to slow down or
even stop. Think of a lead pencil. The wood
covering is the myelin sheath and the lead is
the spinal cord. If the wood covering is
chipped and the lead is exposed, the communication between the brain and the central nervous system is disrupted.
Symptoms vary from patient to patient.
The location and severity of each attack can
be different and often these attacks are followed by periods of reduced or, in some
cases, no symptoms. Sometimes, this disease may continue to get worse without
periods of remission. Because nerves in any
part of the brain or spinal cord may be damaged, MS symptoms can appear in many
parts of the body. It is important to treat the
whole patient and help family and caregivers do the same.
It is important not just to find a good
neurologist that specializes in MS but, its a
good idea to align yourself with a facility
that treats the entire patient and all aspects
of the disease.
The Multiple Sclerosis Comprehensive
Care Center in Livingston is the only facility in the region that offers a full service
approach to MS under one roof. The MS
Center provides comprehensive evaluations, diagnosis, treatment, medication education and follow up under the direction of
board certified neurologists that are multiple sclerosis specialists as well as nurse
coordinators.
Patients have access to other needed
services in the same building such as infusion capabilities, physical and occupational
therapies, psychological support, pain management and the highest quality imaging
device, the 3.OT MRI machine.

One year After Transplant, Brothers Complete Documentary To Enlist Organ Donors
By Cheryl Conway
ameron Wohl of Parsippany, a former student of County College of
Morris in Randolph, got a second
chance to life just one year ago when his
older brother, Jared, donated a portion of
his liver to him.
The brothers spent the past year documenting their familys journey through the
transplant experience and are almost ready
to share their documentary to encourage
and educate others about the indispensable
need for more donors. They are hoping to
get the documentary out for distribution to
the public later this year.
Cameron, 25, and Jared, 28, raised
money for the production of their documentary through the organization they
established - The Wave Set- to create a
movement and spread awareness and education on the importance of organ donation. In Dec. 2013, they had started a
campaign to raise money for their documentary. Through social media and a line
of apparel to serve as visual awareness for
their cause, the pair raised almost $35,000
during their one month campaign.
They are on a mission to share their
story and encourage others to become
donors.
People should see this film because
the necessity of needing a life-saving
organ transplant can happen to anyone at
anytime, says Jared. Too many people
are suffering from the inability of receiving a life-saving transplant and we owe it
to ourselves to change that.
This time last year, the brothers were
recovering from surgery at New York
Presbyterian Hospital in Manhattan.
Camerons journey actually began when
he was 13 when he was diagnosed in 2003
with Primary Slerosis (PSC), a rare
autoimmune disease- primarily affecting
his liver- with less than 200,000 cases
worldwide. He went from being an active
and normal seventh grader to quite
sick. He would get a viral flare up but
after it persisted, went to see a doctor, he
describes. He had been diagnosed with
