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,

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.

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!

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

length of time needed to
complete the work. Runninga gas or electric line and
plumbing to the island may
require a major overhaul anddemolition.
Kitchen islands are popu-
lar components of homedesigns. Before homeowners
engage in any kitchen renova-
tion that may include theincorporation of an island,
they should know the advan-
tages and disadvantages.

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
of the Year by the Passaic
County Board of Realtors.
Linteris was recognized
for his commitment to the
realtor code of ethics, promot-
ing good real estate practices
among fellow real estate
licensees and the general pub-
lic, and dedicating his time to
perform charitable work in
the community.
Linteris exemplifies the
criteria for the Realtor of the
Year Award. His years of serv-
ice in various charitable
organizations, being active in
the greater community and
his dedication to the real
estate community uniquely
qualify him for this award. He
holds the senior real estate
specialist designation, the
GREEN designation and is a
certified short sale and fore-
closure specialist.
Wayne Damstra, broker
of record at Century 21
Gemini, values the dedication
and commitment Linteris
brings. Bills high ethical
standards and willingness to
give his time both profession-
ally and personally impact the
entire Century 21 Gemini
family and community as a
whole and this is recognized
by his being selected as 2012
Realtor of the Year, he said.

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
