National Stroke Awareness Month National
Stroke Association strives to provide everyone with the tools
and inspiration to raise public awareness about stroke by
hosting awareness events or activities.
Stroke is the third leading
cause of death and a leading cause of disability in America,
but many people do not realize how educating themselves and
others will help reduce the incidence of stroke. We urge you
to specifically educate others about how to:
·
STOP stroke through risk
factor management.
·
Act F.A.S.T. to
increase
recognition of and
response to stroke
symptoms.
·
Spread HOPE about
recovery from stroke.
Are You Ready
to Get Involved?
National Stroke
Awareness Month is a great opportunity to educate
your friends, family and community about stroke. But it
does require some planning ahead.
To start planning your
awareness activity, start thinking about how you can spread
awareness. Here are some questions to think
about:
· What can I do to raise
stroke awareness
during
May?
· How can I hold an
awareness fundraiser
during May?
· What can I do in my
workplace?
· What can I do in my
community?
· What can I do for my
hospital’s
stroke team?
· What can I do to educate
my fellow
rehabilitation
colleagues?
· What can I do for my
stroke support group?
"While
Strolling in the park One Day"
(The
Fountain in the Park)
While
strolling through the park one day
In the merry merry month
of May
I was taken by surprise
By a pair of roguish
eyes
In a moment my poor heart was stole away
A
smile was all she
gave to me
Of course we
were
as happy as can be
I
immediately raised my hat
And finally she remarked
I
never shall forget
That lovely afternoon
I met her at
the fountain
in the park
While
strolling through
the park one day
In the merry
merry
month of May
I was taken by surprise
By a pair
of roguish eyes
In the merry merry month of
May.

Memorial Day
is often known as the official kick off weekend for
summer at the Jersey Shore, as well as the start of the
summer sales season, but at Schwartz Mazda of
Shrewsbury, we not only acknowledge the history of this
holiday, but our family takes pride in our own lineage
of soldiers who have helped us to value all those who
have lived and died for our
country.
Our
dealership was founded in 1919 by Maurice Schwartz after
his first discharge from the United States Army. He had
served as an ordinance sergeant in France during
World War I. He returned stateside and ran the
dealership until 1942. After the outbreak of World War
II, Maurice Schwartz made several attempts to rejoin the
U.S. Army. At this time, he received his commission from
General Omar Bradley. He was honorably discharged as Lt.
Colonal after serving two and a half years in the
China-Burma-India area in charge of assembling motor
vehicles shipped in to that area. During World War II,
the business was run by Bessie Schwartz (Mrs. Maurice
Schwartz) with the aid of five employees while Maurice
dutifully served our country. Maurice Schwartz’s loyalty
and bravery exemplified the same courage and
characteristics of the honorable men and women we now
memorialize on this national
holiday.
Believe it or
not, Memorial Day was first observed on May
5th, 1866 in Waterloo, New
York and originally known to be
?Decoration Day?. It was largely because of the roles of
both General John Murray and General John A. Logan, who
also greatly influenced the attention and initial
recognition of this holiday throughout our nation, that
what was once known as ?Decoration Day? became known and
observed as Memorial Day as we now know the last Monday
of each May to be Memorial Day.
As we embark
upon the summer of 2010, please keep the fallen soldiers
who have given their lives so that we may be able to
enjoy the freedoms we most often take for granted as we
enjoy spending time with our loved ones this Memorial
Day. Please stop by our dealership and take advantage of
our special buying program for members of the military
and unique sales especially for Memorial
Day.

How to Clean Film Off
Windows
Hard water not only affects the
dishes that are washed in it, but windows as well. Film
is the result of excess minerals found in hard water
such as calcium and magnesium that cool, dry and adhere
to whatever surface it's touching leaving an unclean
foggy look. Removing film from windows is easier than
you think and the benefits are worth the extra
time.
1. Mix a solution
of equal parts water and vinegar into a spray
bottle.
2. Add a cap full
of ammonia and a teaspoon of dish
soap.
3. Spray the
window with the
solution.
4. Wipe the
window clean with scrunched up newspapers to clean the
glass.
5. Shine the area
with a soft, clean
towel.
Orange Pecan French
Toast
Ingredients
1
cup packed brown
sugar
1/2 cup 2% milk
1/3
cup butter,
melted
3 tablespoons white sugar
2
tablespoons light corn
syrup
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/3
cup chopped
pecans
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12
(3/4 inch thick) slices French bread
3 egg whites
1
teaspoon grated orange
zest
2 eggs
1
cup fresh orange
juice 1
tablespoon confectioner's sugar
Directions
In a small bowl, stir together the brown
sugar, melted butter, and corn syrup. Pour into a
greased 9x13 inch baking dish, and spread evenly.
Sprinkle pecans over the sugar mixture. Arrange the
bread slices in the bottom of the dish so they are in a
snug single layer.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the
orange zest, orange juice, milk, sugar, cinnamon,
vanilla, egg whites, and eggs. Pour this mixture over
the bread, pressing on the bread slices to help absorb
the liquid. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour,
or overnight.
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Remove the
cover from the baking dish, and let stand for 20 minutes
at room temperature.
Bake for 35
minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown. Dust
with confectioners' sugar before
serving.
Top 5 Crops for
Children
Here are the "top 10" crops,
which are relatively easy to grow, have short growing
seasons and are fun to
harvest.
SUNFLOWERS
A must for
a child's garden. Plant just one or two, since they take
a lot of room. Sunflowers will sprout in 1 week, become
a small seedling in 2 weeks, and should be 2' tall in a
month. In 8 weeks, the buds will flower revealing
hundreds of seed kernels. They will dry naturally
in the late summer sun; the seeds, rich in protein and
iron, can be roasted for snacks. Save a few for next
summers' planting.
RADISHES
Quick results for the young
gardener. Radishes germinate in 3-10 days, and have a
very short growing season of 20-30 days. They can be
planted closely, 4-6" apart. Plant in cool weather for a
mild radish, or hot weather for a hotter
radish.
SNOW
PEAS
A quick-growing early crop, and fun for kids to
eat right off the vine. They take about 10 days to
germinate and mature in about 60 days. Peas prefer
cooler, partially shaded locations in the garden; they
should be sown closely, about 1" apart at most.
CHERRY
TOMATOES
Gotta have
'em! These may be the most fun crop for a child, aside
from strawberries. Plant in full sun and use seedlings
rather than planting from seed. Put in a 2' stake
alongside each seedling; they need to be tied loosely to
stakes as they get taller. Add lots of compost. Water at
ground level, trying to keep leaves dry. Growing season
is 50-75 days.
NASTURIUMS
These flowers are easy to grow and
yield results quickly, which encourages the young
gardener. Nasturtiums bloom about 50 days after the
seeds are planted, with orange, yellow and red flowers.
They prefer sunny, dry locations and do well in poor
soil. The flowers are also edible, and can be used to
add colour to a fresh garden salad.
