Lyme Disease

It’s the time of year to recognize what a big tick problem we have here in New Jersey.

They're panic-inducing, bloodsucking, and disgusting, and summer is their season. Ticks. If you've seen one lately, and happened to take a photo of it, you could be of assistance to Rutgers University.

There has been a lot of speculation surrounding singer Avril Lavigne in recent months, rumors going so far as to say she was in rehab, or that her marriage to Chad Kroeger was in trouble since they haven’t been seen together recently. But the truth is actually way worse.
