Department heads sue mayorBy Toniann Antoneili

Managing EditorHILLSIDE — Three weeks after mem-

bers of the Township Council filed a lawsuitagainst Mayor Karen McCoy Oliver, thetown's department heads have initiated legalaction of their own.

The lawsuit was filed May 22 in UnionCounty Superior Court in Elizabeth by PoliceChief Robert Quinlan, Public Works Super-

intendent Scott T. Anderson, Chief FinancialOfficer Marie Pardo, Urban Enterprise ZoneCoordinator Yves F. Aubourg, Welfare Direc-tor Dennis Vodarsik, Court AdministratorMaryann Corcoran, Fire Chief DominickNaples and Construction Official LawrenceDitzel Jr. The suit named the mayor and thetownship as defendants.

A press release issued by the departmentheads last week indicated that the suit was

filed "because of the inability or unwilling-ness of the mayor to insure that each of themhave contracts of employment." The con-tracts of the department supervisors expiredin 2005.

The lawsuit alleges that the mayor has"deliberately withheld her approval of dulynegotiated labor agreements for reasons thathave never been clear."

"The holdup is the mayor. The Finance

Committee and negotiating attorney anddepartment heads reached an agreement ontheir contracts months ago," said CouncilVice President John Kulish, who serves onthe Finance Committee.

Kulish said the salary ordinance approv-ing the pay increases for the departmentheads was approved by members of theTownship Council.

Students hit the dance floorBy Jackeiine Leon

Staff WriterUNION — Efforts to combat childhood obe-

sity have led physical education teachers nation-wide to consider new forms of exercise and Bur-net Middle School is no exception.

Interactive Dance, a program launched byMichael Falgaras and designed to revolutionizephysical education in schools across America,visited Burnet Monday. On that day, studentscould be seen going to class, having lunch withfriends and challenging each other to a Dance,Dance Revolution video game tournament.

Dance, Dance Revolution, a Konami game,is typically seen in arcades and played by twopeople. The system brought to the school byInteractive Dance is the only one in the UnitedStates that features a multi-player set-up inwhich more than two players can competeagainst each other on wireless pads.

The screen in front of them keeps the scorefor each individual player and tallies theprogress of each. The game was brought to the

school as an innovative way to collect funds forthe school's Parent Teacher Association.

"We were thinking of a fun way to raisemoney for the PTA and also to get kids active,"PTA President Nancy Spiniello said.

Close to S 10,000 was collected through thefundraiser. The funds will benefit school pro-grams and initiatives.

"We usually do a walk-a-thon, but we'vedone that and at this age, kids just want tomove," Spiniello said.

Children take their pledge forms home tocollect enough donations to get season ticketsfor Six Flags Great Adventure theme park, aNintendo Wii system or the chance to play videogames in a special gaming room for less than anhour, while peers report back to class.

"It's an active fundraiser that is hot in themarket right now," Falgaras said. "It's some-thing; and something kids are in touch with."

Physical Education teacher, Diego Munoz,said playing DDR may be the most beneficialform of exercise.

According to Falgaras, approximately 600 to700 calories are burned in an hour of playingDDR. The game itself involves performingdance moves by matching colored arrows on ascreen to corresponding arrows on a pad.

Burnet students demonstrated no hesitationto step on the pads and dance.

"No one feels awkward dancing in front oftheir classmates because there are so many oth-ers dancing too, so no one is looking at one per-son," explained Falgaras.

The video game has already been added tothe physical education curriculum in schools inthe state of West Virginia. The proposal to havethe same thing done in Burnet has the approvalof many students there. One sixth grade studentsaid they should consider it.

"This is really fun," sixth-grader SamanthaRyan said between rounds as she tried to catchher breath.

Society earns awardfor preservation efforts

By Jackeiine LeonStaff Writer

KENILWORTH — Kenilworthwas one of six municipalities in thestate and the only one in UnionCounty to receive a historic preser-vation award from the Departmentof Environmental Protection earlierthis month.

The award was presented to theborough to honor the restorationefforts of the Kenilworth HistoricalSociety for the Oswald J. Nitschkehouse.

The Union County Four Cen-turies in a Weekend site is an origi-nal 19th Century farmhouse and the

last remaining historic home of itskind in the borough.

The house has been undergoingrenovations since 2001 andalthough exterior restoration iscomplete, further work is needed.Almost $500,000 has been raisedfor the project.

"This year's award recipientshave demonstrated an unwaveringcommitment to restoring and revi-talizing New Jersey's historicbuildings and communities,"Department of Environmental Pro-tection Commissioner Lisa P. Jack-son said.

"We are proud to honor such

deserving people and projects."The Nitschke House originally

rested on the corner of Boulevardand South 2.1st Street and the prop-erty was up for sale in 2001.

In response, the Kenilworth His-torical Society launched a cam-paign to save the house and restoreit into a historic site.

"We were working to raise thefunds to purchase it, but the cost ofthe house was quite high and whathappened was a local dentist, Dr.Jerome Forman, made an offer topurchase the house and donate it tothe Kenilworth Historical Society,provided we could find a place to

Historical Society wins award(Continued from Page 1)

The Kenilworth Veterans Cen-ter offered a parcel of its land towhich the borough moved thehouse. A matching grant to helpfund the project was provided bythe New Jersey DEP Green AcresProgram and the New Jersey His-toric Trust.

LaTorre Construction, based inKenilworth, donated its services toexcavate for the foundation in thenew site. "Phase one" of therestoration began after the housewas moved to the new site in aprocess that took several hours andwas viewed by hundreds of specta-tors. The first phase entailed instal-lation of utilities and exteriorrestoration.

"The Kenilworth Veterans Cen-ter has been generous in providingland, and they installed a pavedwalkway, lighting and they havehelped in other ways as well,"Maxwell said. "Funds from the E.J. Grassman Trust set the pace forour save the house campaign witha $5,000 grant initially and theyhave supported the project eversince."

The historical society organizedart auctions, flea markets, casinonights and special excursions toraise funds for the home.

In addition, the New JerseyHistoric Commission and the NewJersey Cultural Trust continuallygave grants which have enabled

the historical society to fulfilloperating costs and be able toadvance programs at the house.

"The next phase we have a bigchallenge because we need to raise$400,000," Maxwell said. "Ourimmediate goal is to raise$225,000 with the intent to applyfor matching grants."

Maxwell said she was pleasedwith the state award and distinc-tion.

"We're thrilled and honored tohave the project recognized by thestate in such a special way,"Maxwell said.

She said the New Jersey His-toric Trust had nominated the bor-ough's historical society for theDEP award. The same organiza-tion donated a matching grant ofnearly $200,000 for the exteriorrestoration which was completedlast June.

Maxwell said that eventuallythe house will be a "living history"museum and cultural arts centerand expects the house to be openon a more regular basis by 2012.

Currently, the house is onlyopen for tours during the FourCenturies in a Weekend event,which is part of the Union Countyannual heritage festival.

"For the past few years, we'veparticipated in it, we've had about400 visitors tour the NitschkeHouse each year," Maxwell said.

The house is named after its

former owner, Oswald J. Nitschke,who served as mayor for threeterms in the early 20th Century andwas one of the borough's firstcouncilmembers.

According to the HistoricalSociety, Nitscke is credited withsupporting the incorporation of theborough in 1907 as well as the cre-ation of the 120-foot wide Boule-vard.

Join the fight againstcancer at ACS 'Relay'

No one should have to face cancer alone.The American Cancer Society invites everyone to join more than 4,800

other communities across the United States in celebration of survivorshipand hope at Relay For Life of Roselle Park next month.

The "annual event will be held at the Roselle Park High School athleticfield, 185 West Webster Ave., Roselle Park.

Registration begins at 4:30 p.m. June 7. The relay will continuethroughout the night until the closing "victory lap" at 7:30 a.m. the follow-ing morning.

Relay For Life is an overnight, community celebration and fundraiser tofight cancer, where individuals and teams camp and picnic, while walkingor running around a track "relay" style.

Because cancer never sleeps, each team has a representative on the trackat all times during the overnight event. Contributions collected at Relay ForLife of Roselle Park support research, education, advocacy and patientservices in Union County.

In addition to fundraising efforts, participants at this particular locationwill have a one time, historic opportunity to sign up for a nationwide Can-cer Prevention Study, CPS-3. The Roselle Park event is unique because itis the only event in Union County chosen as a study enrollment site.

Cancer survivors of all ages are invited to celebrate their triumph overcancer during the opening ceremonies, starting at 6 p.m., by participatingin an inspirational "survivor celebration lap" to start off the event.

A festive atmosphere develops around the track as teams of approxi-mately 8 to 15 people make new friends and spend time with old ones.There is plenty of entertainment scheduled, including music from the band1.21 Gigawatts, singer Angela Mintel, and the "Dance In The Stars" com-petition, which will be judged by cancer survivors in attendance. Gamesand activities for children and adults will be on-going throughout the night.

Those who wish to learn about ACS programs and services may visit theMission & Advocacy Tent. The ACS Cancer Action Network is inviting every-one 18 and older to "Picture A Cure," by sending a photo-message to Congressexpressing voters' concerns regarding access and funding for health care.

At dusk, a candlelit service will take place to honor the survivors, butmost importantly, to remember those who lost their battle to this devastat-ing disease. The emotional Luminaria Ceremony sets the stage for theimportance of community support and involvement in the fight against can-cer and the Relay For Life event. Hundreds of candles line the track and areleft burning throughout the night as a reminder of each life that is affected,and the loss their families and loved ones endure.

Caretakers, family members, and friends who have felt the emotionalimpact of cancer are encouraged to sign up for CPS-3.

Enrollment will be for four hours only, on June 7 from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m.Volunteers between the ages of 30 and 65 who have never had cancer, otherthan basal or squamous cell skin cancer, may sign up.

At enrollment, volunteers must answer 'a brief questionnaire, have awaist measurement taken, and give a small blood sample — all of whichwill be done at the event. The enrollment process ta'kes approximately 20to 30 minutes. Participants must agree to long term periodic follow-upwhich is required to make the study accurate and successful.

CPS-3 is a non-invasive study and no medications are involved with thisresearch. CPS-3 is strictly a statistical study — ACS researchers will trackeach subject over the course of 20 years by having participants answer annu-al or bi-annual questionnaires regarding everyday lifestyle habits such asexercise, diet and tobacco use. The data collected will be used to see whichsubjects develop cancer and which do not, in hopes of learning how a combi-nation of life choices, environmental exposure and genetics factor into thecauses of cancer and how to control and perhaps one day cure cancer. CPS-3will provide answers that will save lives and improve the outlook of futuregenerations.

Union students expressthemselves through art

By Jackeline LeonStaff Writer

UNION — Friday night, localyouth were able to open up andshare a bit of their worlds with thepublic.

The event called YES — YouthExpression Sound, which tookplace at the' Elks Lodge in theVauxhall section of Union, wasorganized by community volun-teers and Vauxhall residents AlCook and Tyrone Tutt Jr.

Several members of the commu-nity including youths and adultswere attracted to the event.

"It was fantastic," Tutt, a parentof two children said. "We hadyoung people come out and expressthemselves and young people aredealing with a lot of things thesedays."

Tutt and Cook have been work-ing on youth-oriented programs foryears since they met seven yearsago at a Vauxhall library poetryevent.

"It's always about the kids andtrying to give them a positive out-let," Cook said. "We seek to givethem something to do on Fridaynights that can be positive."

"We hope to continue doing thisand hopefully we can continuedoing this," Tutt said. "This is oneway to help address young people'sconcerns." He added that the bestpart of the event was that it was puttogether by the seven who per-formed that night.

"We just advised them," Tuttsaid. "We as adults need to listen tothe younger people and we don'talways do that."

Some of the themes discussedthrough poetry, song and dance hadto do with things they witness atschool or in their neighborhoodsuch as peer pressure, problems athome, drugs and gangs.

Cook and Tutt are hoping tomake open mic night a weeklyevent. Cook said the event was afirst for the Elks Lodge and theevent garnered attention from localorganizations.

A local church and the UTCAOhave also organized open micnights. "My daughter organizedthis as well," Cook said.

His daughter, 17-year-old Jas-mine Carpenter-Cook is the youthpresident for the tri-countyNAACP and is looking forward to

studying medicine at BloomfieldCollege. Cook said he was pleasedwith the turnout Friday night.

"For the first time we did this, itwent just as I thought it would,"Cook said.

Cook often volunteers his timeto visit Union High School studentsduring detention on Saturdays tooffer advice and talk to them. Manytimes, he brings people who mayoffer eye-opening personal experi-ences.

"We go and talk to the kidsabout staying out of trouble," Cooksaid. "I try to get different people.For example, one time I broughtsomeone who has done some time(in prison) and let them explain dif-ferent things and another time wehad a police officer from Millburngo."

He sometimes goes to theschool with his wife, who alsoenjoys volunteering her time in thecommunity.

"The main goal is to hopefullypush them in the opposite directionand help them," Cook said.

COMMUNITY FORUEDITORIALS

Keep the dateThe state Assembly last week approved a bill sponsored

by Assembly Speaker John Roberts that would move theannual school board elections from the third Tuesday inApril to the first Tuesday in November. Under this pro-posal, voters on Election Day in November would castballots for both municipal and school board candidates.School budgets also would be decided in November,although the proposal by Roberts calls for an automaticapproval of school budgets which fall below the state-mandated 4 percent cap on budget increases.

These proposals are misguided. Although their intend-ed goal of increasing voter participation is worthy of pur-suit, these measures will not achieve that result. And thenegative effects of the proposed changes are simply unac-ceptable.

We have seen strong municipal political groups gaininfluence on a school board, using their muscle to placecandidates on the board where they then vote the partyline or are groomed for council seats. This is wrong and tohave the elections in November will only blur the distinc-tion between school boards and municipal councils.Boards of education should remain focused on educationand not be affected by the dynamics of municipal politics.

With elections in April, newly elected board membersassume their positions in May and have the summer tobecome adjusted before school starts in September. Butwith elections in November, new members likely wouldtake office in January, the midpoint of the academic year.That is unproductive. Also, new board members seated inJune are much more able to meet the mid-March budgetdeadline than would be members seated in January.

Regarding the proposal to eliminate public votes onbudgets below the state mandate, this, too, is misguided.What if a budget is less than the cap, but the board mem-bers have shifted all available cash to athletics, althoughresidents want to emphasize science programs? Those res-idents should be able to vote and reject such a budget.

Low voter turnout for board of education elections is aproblem. This year, fewer than 14 percent of eligible vot-ers statewide cast ballots. But the solutions proposed bythe Assembly are not the answer and the Senate shouldreject them.

What we have seen is that school districts which suc-cessfully reach out and draw parents into the day-to-dayeducational process have better voter turnout than districtswhich are hostile and defensive with parents. We believean initiative that approaches the problem from this per-spective would have more success.

Will busts shrinkgang presence?

The arrests of 55 members and associates of variousstreet gangs in Newark, Irvington, East Orange andOrange is just one of many of the several recent gangcrackdowns that have been pervasive in Essex and Unioncounties.

Operation Spruce Up resulted in these 55 arrests lastweek while Union County had Operation Caged Lion inApril, when 22 members of the Latin Kings were arrest-ed.

Union County Prosecutor Theodore Romankow saidafter the arrests of the Latin Kings: "It's important to keepin mind that the Latin Kings are not just illicit entrepre-neurs, they are a dangerous, violent criminal enterprise.They are also involved in illegal weapons sales. Most ofthe guns they purchase are used to arm their own mem-bers."

We laud both the county and local law enforcementofficers who are involved in April and May gang raids.According to studies, the rise in urban gang activity has inthe past been correlated with economic downturns. Thismost likely means more gang roundups will occur in thenear future and it is necessary for there to be continuedcooperation between county and local law enforcement.

The big question is whether these crackdowns willresult in a long term solution of either eliminating gangsor at least limiting their power and ability to grow.

We'd like to think that each time there is a crackdown,law enforcement is hindering the gangs involved, but along term solution must eventually join law enforcementwith parental and community involvement in order toeliminate gangs.

There is no doubt that parental guidance is the first lineof defense in keeping kids out of gangs, but the availabil-ity of sports and club programs in each town preventsmany of our youth from straying into gangs.

Lessons left by those who 'passed through'Years ago, while waiting for my

car at the bar at the old Don Pepe inNewark, I overheard a conversationwhere this guy was trying to showhis depth.

He told this girl "you're notreally dead as long as you're alivein the memory of one person."This stuck with me, possibly due tothe context and the odd use towhich he put that information. Per-sonally I would have gone with"What's a sexy woman like youdoing in a dirty mind like mine?"

Only later did I find out it was abowdlerization of George San-tayana, as the best pickup linesseem to be, who said that "childrenendow their parents with a vicari-ous immortality." It's what weleave behind that keeps us some-how alive.

Almost a year ago, on July 2,Thomas Canavan Jr., the editor inchief of this newspaper, died. In2004 he wrote a book, "I Don'tHave Time for This: My Battle withCancer," and spoke openly of hisillness once at the Kenilworthlibrary, where I saw him at a time

SeemsToMeBy John Bury

his cancer was in remission. Heopened up about the new perspec-tive his illness provided him on lifeand how things that once seemed soimportant paled within his currentbigger picture.

His book walked us through dis-covery, adjustment and treatmentand will certainly help both suffer-ers and caregivers in understandingthe illness through his experience.

A few weeks ago William Con-rad Jr., a former mayor of Kenil-worth in the early 1970s, also died.The only thing I've ever read byMr. Conrad was a personal hand-written, two-page letter he wrote tome dated Sept. 24, 1991, regardingcomments I'd made at councilmeetings and letters I'd written. At

the time, I was something of a gad-fly complaining about either thedisposition of some lawsuit or thewasting of some tax money and Mr.Conrad, I gathered, played a similarrole earlier before some unspeci-fied illness slowed him.

The early 1990s in Kenilworthwas dominated by the Waldorf law-suit, which I plan to revisit in latercolumns. But for now, all you needto know is that, to me anyway, thegoverning body seemed to be com-promised since a principal in thecase, Joseph Rego — who wasmayor at the time — and: the bor-ough attorney Bradford Bury (norelation), seemed to be runninginterference for him. The borough"stipulated" liability in the case andcould have been bankrupted if a$16 million judgment had beenupheld.

Being relatively young then, Iwas constantly questioning myself.Could this really be happening?Surely there must be some over-sight of this situation that wouldpreclude such stipulation of liabili-ty with the concomitant tax escala-

tion? These were adults — electedadults. They had to know what theywere doing. As it turned out, theydidn't, and Mr. Conrad's letter inwhich he encouraged me to keep atit and offered to give me "somehelpful background" on the bor-ough's problems provided a power-ful source of approbation for meduring a time of doubt.

I deeply regret not taking him upon his generous offer and, after acouple of years, not keeping at it.I'm back now and this time I expectto truly keep at it. I've saved his let-ter and refer to it often. Though thefaces on the council and the issuesmay have changed, the sentimentswithin it are timeless and willalways be with me.

I prefer to think that both TomCanavan and Bill Conrad have notso much passed away from us aspassed through us and left us betterequipped to get through our ownlives by what they left behind fromhaving lived theirs.

Presidential hopefuls leave much to be desired

John D'AchinoCirculation Director

This year's election may be themost important one in our historybecause so much is at stake.

It is not only our faltering econ-omy with the constantly rising gasprices and the question of domesticdrilling, but also the worseninginternational situation.

It's going to take a truly astutepolitician to handle the upcomingcrisis, and our current choices leavemuch to be desired.

I really think we're going tomiss President George W. Bush'sguiding hand. You know, you can'ttell about history. Maybe futuregenerations will think the youngerBush a great man. At least he hasn'tembarrassed us with sexual scan-dals and his wife, Laura, has beennothing less than classy, unlike theloud, crass, abrasive Hillary.

But George Bush won't be withus for much longer and it's time tothink of who will follow. I'm stillnot convinced Hillary is out for thecount. The Clintons are so greedyfor power anything might happen.They remind me a bit of the Ceaus-escus of Romania, but if the nextpresident should be Barack Obama,that will present its own problems.

Do I like Obama? Yes and no.I'd like to have him as my neighborbut not my president. He's a smartguy, very charismatic and person-able, but he's so far out in left fieldyou can hardly see him. He's notjust a liberal, he's 10 times a liberal.And he's an appeaser. He wants tosit down with Kim Jong II of NorthKorea. And what are they going todiscuss — the dictator's drunkenranting? Do you think Obama willrebuke him for North Korea's noto-rious cell phone law: possessingone could get you executed.

He wants to sit down with Mah-moud Ahmadinejad of Iran, a holo-caust denier — a terrorist who notonly wants to wipe Israel off themap, but is dedicated to the destruc-tion of our country.

You don't sit and talk with peo-ple like this; you drop bombs on

people like this or plan for theiroverthrow. In this regard, Obamareminds me of Jimmy Carter, theworst president of the 20th Century-— and the 19th and 18th as well.What an Obama presidency willhave in common with Carter's ishumiliation by Iran.

Obama calls for the immediateremoval of U.S. troops from IraqbecauF. he knows that's whatAmericans want to hear, but he failsto say how he will accomplish this.He is totally oblivious to Iran'snuclear desires and doesn't realizethat offering to talk to Iran will beconsidered weakness. There's onlyone language these thugs under-stand. Remember in 1986, duringRonald Reagan's presidency whenLibya was committing terroristattacks in Europe? Did Reagan askto meet with Moammar Khadafyand talk? No. We bombed Tripoliand nearly killed Khadafy — andwe haven't heard a peep out of himsince. Clueless failures like Carteralways want to talk, and like Carter,Obama is a closet anti-Semite.

An Obama presidency isn'tgoing to sit too well in Israel. Carterwas over there recently meetingwith the terrorist Palestinian author-ities who approve of the suicidebombings at malls and pizza shopsthat kill and maim Israeli womenand children.

Some people claim Obama is a"messiah" come to lead us from thefailures of George Bush, but becareful America! That stuff beneathyour feet is quicksand. I read anarticle that claimed Obama was theantichrist who will usher in worlddestruction. In truth, he is an inept

liberal who, if facing a really strongopponent like Reagan, would beannihilated.

His opponent should take note:criticizing Obama too enthusiasti-cally will bring charges of racism,and if we elect this advocate of"change," we shall at some point betreated to the horrifying spectacle ofcharacters like Al Sharpton andJesse Jackson being entertained inthe White House. The spinning inthe graves you hear will be thefounding fathers.

I have cautioned against aHillary presidency but on Obamaone will be just as bad. Unfortu-nately, that's how the Democratsare: one worse than another. Theonly good one was Sen. Joe Lieber-man of Connecticut, and he becamean Independent.

Maybe Obama sincerely wantsto avoid war with Iran, but the wayto accomplish this is not to talk withAhmadinejad. Dissent should bevigorously encouraged. The Iranianpeople are like us in some ways,most think their leaders are wackosbut doing anything about it is notan option for them.

We can't bomb Iran indiscrimi-

nately as a lot of good people willdie; we must take out the govern-ment only. The "religious" leadersruling the country have got to go.All this is far too complicated forObama. Al! of his intelligencewon't make up for his lack of expe-rience.

As for John McCain, I shouldsave him for another article becausethere's just as much wrong withhim, but he is right now the lesser oftwo evils. I just hope that youngpeople — the teens and twenty-somethings — will look at all theissues and not discount McCainbecause of his age or vote forObama because he's "cool."

One more thing please. In arecent column, I referred to BillClinton as the "Immaculate Decep-tion" and I wanted to apologize if Ioffended any Catholics with thatphrase. I did not mean to make lightof the Blessed Virgin or show anydisrespect, because I am very, verymuch devoted to her and have askedher to forgive me if the remark wasfound to be displeasing. Thank you.

Watershed ripe with tropicai birdsThe much anticipated warm

fronts of May provide the settingfor one of nature's greatest pilgrim-ages. Following the stars, the northto south rivers and the coasts, a vastnumber of birds - numbering in thetens of millions and encompassingover 70 species - are migrating totheir birthplace to breed. Regard-less of whether their naturalwildlife habitat of choice is in thewoods, among the fields and or inwetlands, migratory birds maketheir perilous journeys, almostunnoticed, to urban and suburbandwellings at night.

Magically, on any given Maymorning, one is awakened by thecacophony of birds singing, callingout and chirping.

The mature trees of suburbancommunities, such as Westfield andCranford or in the forested greenwayof the Rahway River Parkway, pro-vide the reliable sustenance ofinsects for warblers, vireos, orioles,thrushes, flycatchers and many"neo-tropical" songbirds. They arecalled "neo-tropical" songbirdsbecause they have spent the winterin the relatively balmy climates ofSouth America and Central America.

Traveling by night, the migrato-ry birds may fly hundreds of miles.If they are a Red Knot, a species ofsandpiper, they may travel 2,500miles from the Tierra Del Fuego inArgentina to the tundra of northernCanada. I have observed the tiny

palm warbler - a small, olive song-bird that nests in boreal bogs of theCanadian forests - happily living inthe streets of Havana, much likeEnglish sparrows occupy the streetsof Rahway.

The Hawkrise Sanctuary of Lin-den is a 60-acre wooded oasis thatattracts migratory songbirds inunusual numbers since the preserveis the largest contiguous forest formiles around. The high, rockypromontories of the WatchungReservation, overlooking UnionCounty, also attracts great numbersof songbirds. Encompassing2,000+ acres, the Watchung Reser-vation is the largest natural patch ofnatural habitat in the Rahway RiverWatershed south of the SouthMountain Reservation. Some com-mon birds you will find migratingmay actually breed in the Watchungand South Mountain Reservations,including wood thrush, red-eyedvireo, American redstart, easternkingbird and rufous-sided towhee.

Songbirds are not the only onesthat migrate. The broad-winged

hawk spends winters in SouthAmerica and later breeds in the richwoods of our wetland forests, suchas the Ashbrook Swamp Reserva-tion in Scotch Plains or LenapePark in Cranford.

The endangered yellow-crowned and black-crowned nightherons nest secretly in the linearforests and wetlands amid theindustrial areas of the Arthur KillWatershed.

Meanwhile, male Baltimore ori-oles and warbling vireos havealready carved up territories, whilethe females are probably alreadyincubating eggs in their treetopnests at the Clark Nature Preserve.The yellow warbler and the com-mon yellowthroat will take up terri-tory in the shrubs along the shoresof the Clark Nature Preserve andalong the open wetlands of theBloodgood Dam in Winfield Park.

On an early morning you mayhear a black-throated green warbleror a wood thrush singing. You maycatch a glimpse of the azureplumaged indigo bunting or theradiant red of the scarlet tanager.But you must step out to your localpark or greenway watershed toexperience one of the greatest won-ders of nature: the birds in the Rah-way River Watershed.

Dennis Miranda is the execu-tive director of the Rahway RiverAssociation.

Suit charges mayor with failing to sign contracts(Continued from Page 1)

The mayor, however, has yet toofficially sign the contract agree-ment.

"(The mayor) probably justhasn't gotten around to it," 4thWard Councilman, Gerald"Pateesh" Freedman said sarcasti-cally. "She thrives on trie fact thatcouncil is now adversarial withher."

Freedman said the contracts,which were approved by both thecouncil and department heads,have been "sitting on the mayor'sdesk" awaiting her approval. Themayor has also been sent lettersasking her to approve the con-tracts, but she has not responded.

"Through the leadership of theTownship Council, which is anindispensable party to the litiga-tion although not the target of the

core allegations, labor agreementswere negotiated with the variousdepartment heads. Over the pasttwo years, contracts have been pre-sented to the mayor for her signa-ture, following her approval ofsimilar agreements with municipallabor unions," the departmentsupervisors said in the pressrelease last week.

The suit charges that McCoyOliver has ignored the resolutionsapproving the contracts and hasoffered no explanation for with-holding her approval.

"Indeed, various departmentheads understand that the mayoractually signed their contracts butshe has not produced any signedcontract and has ignored efforts toresolve the issue," the departmentheads charged in their lawsuit.

Kulish said only the mayor, not

the governing body, can sign thecontracts. He said the mayor hassigned contracts for some of thedepartment heads, including thetownship clerk and the healthdepartment supervisor, but not oth-ers, although there has been noexplanation as to why she haswithheld her signature from. theothers.

"She has nit-picked; she hassigned some and not the others,"Kulish said.

He added that, despite themayor's failure to approve the con-tracts, the department heads thatfiled the lawsuit have continued towork hard for the township.

Although they have been giventhe salary increases negotiated inthe contracts, Kulish said the otherchanges that are. stipulated in theagreements involving areas such as

health benefits, cannot take effectwithout McCoy Oliver's signature.

Attorney for the departmentheads, Vito A. Gagliardi Jr., of theMorristown firm of PorzioBromberg & Newman P.C. saidthat efforts by both the TownshipCouncil and the department headsto resolve the issue have beenignored by the mayor.

"Despite their mistreatment atthe hands of the mayor, the depart-ment heads have continued towork diligently for the township,"Gagliardi said. "They have beenextremely patient and we havemade every effort to avoid litiga-tion. However, as a result of themayor's failure to respond in anyway, the department heads havebeen left with no recourse."

Kulish said he feels the situa-tion is "an embarrassment" to the

town. The mayor and council havebeen feuding for at least threeyears. Council members andadministrators often criticize themayor for her absence, whileMcCoy Oliver has accused thecouncil of insubordination andignoring her directions in matterssuch as the appointments of vari-ous officials.

The mayor did not return callsseeking comment on the lawsuitfiled by the department heads. Shealso did not return calls for com-ment earlier this month, regardinga lawsuit filed against her by mem-bers of the Township Council,seeking the return of legal docu-ments.

UNDERSTANDINGRINGWORM IN CATS

Ringworm is a well-knowncontagious fungus, but it can bedifficult to diagnose its presencein cats. Cats can get the fungusthrough direct contact with thespores, which can be found oninfected animals, groomingequipment, or any environmentwhere an infected cat has been.Healthy cats often resist thefungus, but those with suppressedimmune systems are at risk. Themost common symptoms is asmall, round lesion on the catwhere the fur is gone. Scaly skinwill often appear in the center ofthe lesion, as do small pustules.The spot often starts off smalland grows. Their most commonlocations are on the head, ears ortails.

'Hub of activity' takesshape in Union Center

By Jackeline LeonStaff Writer

UNION — More than 50 yearsago, Union Center was a hub ofactivity with stores that attractedcustomers from miles around.

Before malls and the shift toconvenience shopping, popularhigh-end retail stores such as StanSommer, The Band Box and Max-ine's could be seen alongStuyvesant Avenue.

Stores owners who launchedtheir local businesses in the 40s,recalled how different shoppingwas in the center back then.

.,.,O^er. <jf Terminal Mill Ends,Greta Alexander, said she would-n't.purchase filothing because shewould sew her own clothes, butshe would enjoy going into thenearby Stan Sommer store to buy anew handbag.

Terminal Mill Ends is locatedon 980 Stuyvesant Ave.

"The center was great,"recalled Greta. "There was everykind of shopping imaginable. Tothis day, I don't like malls,,"

Her daughter, Nina Alexander-"

Spinelli manages the store whichhas been in business since 1949.

In 1949, Greta and her hus-band, Leonard Alexander, openedthe store, which sells decorativeand clothing fabrics. Since then,the store has expanded.•-• "My father used to sell fabrics

by the pound," Nina said. Thestore attained its name from thefabric ends which were originallysold in the store.

"Slowly but surely, peoplestarted not wanting ends," Ninasaid.

The fabric offerings were soonexpanded to include decorativefabrics.

Terminal Mill Ends was for-

mally in front of where the RiteAid is currently located.

"Jahn's ice cream parlor used tobe where the Rite Aid is," Ninarecalled. "The community wouldshop in the center and there wasenough business to support thetown."

Other businesses, which havebeen around since the 1940s,include Perkins Pharmacy, whichhas been in business since 1947when it replaced the town's gen-eral store and post office on Mor-ris Avenue.

Grace Lane launched her busi-ness, iQrace kane.,Printing, in 1947on 1994 Morris Ave. Her son, BurtLane, manages the business, buthis mother comes in every day tosupervise.

In a time when women were notseen as business people, Grace wasa pioneer.

She was also president of thetownship of Union's Chamber ofCommerce in the late 1970s.

Burt said the business had beenstruggling for a time, but thingshave been getting better.

In 1947, more and more shops were being built on Stuyvesant Avenue. The build-ing on the left housed the Singer Sewing Machine shop and the adjacent ThriftShon had inst hfip>n hnilf ' ': ; ; ; '' {>": .i^nnm;; yi Mmu: wu)Shop had just been built.He compared shopping in the

1940s to shopping today in thecenter.

"Union today doesn't fare aswell as it did before malls, whichhave taken its toll," he said. "Youcould walk off in any direction andfind a good clothing store or a shoestore."

He said many of the stores werehigh-end retails shops that broughtpeople from all over the state, often

as far south as Toms RiveY."The Band Box was New York -

caliber fashion and there was aWoolworth's and Maxine's," Burtsaid.

Burt, who is 55 years old, saidhe remembers when the UnionTheatre had only one moviescreen.

"There was a massive chande-lier in the middle of (the theater),"Burt said of the theater.

Burt grew tip in- (Union aridattended Union High School.

He said Union has betome amuch more diverse town sincethen, in terms of being more multi-cultural.

"Union has changed from amiddle class, white community to amulticultural little city," Burt said.

We would liketo have our children pre-register by picking up the forms at the Kenil-worth Police desk, but they can also register that morning."

"This event has become a tradition with our borough children, and ourmembers get such satisfaction from setting the large turnout that we his-torically get," Kenilworth PBA 135 President Dan Sims.

Guns, gatesand gadgets

Rick Proctor didn't experi-:nce any pomp or ceremony at

his graduation a few weeks ago.The Union County Freeholderfrom Rahway has been doingsome fancy commuting to gaina masters degree in securitystudies for home and defense.

Proctor's degree came fromthe Naval School PostgraduateStudies in California. Betweenonline and trips to the West

oast, he has acquired somevaluable insight into some con-tinuing problems.

Left OutBy Frank Capece

Proctor speaks candidlyabout the need for "prepared-ness starting at the first responselevel."

He reels off the responsibili-ty of the first responders in cri-sis ranging from 9-11 to Katri-na. The cohesive responsibilityProctor advocates is a coopera-tive strategy.

Bluntly, he states "HomelandSecurity is more than guns,gates and gadgets." He empha-sizes that the so-called "bible"of first responders is two weekswhich needs to be expanded to a90-day period.

The disconnect isn't onlytime, but the problem betweenthe different layers of govern-ment.

Take the chemical safetyrequirements which shouldalways be on the minds ofUnion County first responders.At the federal level it is still thepolicy to allow self policing oftheir security regulations. Thestate was able to interpose theirown oversight only after ourlegislative delegation carved outa federal exception.

The New Jersey tougherrequirements for plants to care-fully review and update theirsafety plans is seen as critical inthe facilities such as those thatdot US 1 in the County. :

The state DEP believe themandatory safety checks willinspire greater overall precau-tions. There is also a require-ment for the companies to setforth the justification if they donot choose the safest alternative.

DEP Commissioner LisaJackson was quoted on the newpolicy of oversight of the chem-ical industry saying, "They arestronger than federal regula-tions. And you're going to see atremendous impact".

Some county officials sayprivately that there is a tug ofwar with the federal govern-ment.

The perspective of the Fedsdoesn't always match up to theneeds of the local areas wherethe chemical plants, refineriesand other industrial facilities arein direct proximity to residen-tial; areas. Still these compa-nies must compete at a nationallevel.

Proctor says "preparednessneeds to look at safety measuresat the response level".

On the other side of theequation, opponents of a greaterstate rule point out that a shrink-ing budget doesn't provide thestaff necessary for the stateoversights.

Proctor brings a growingexpertise to the problem.

Students could gain Tame' with schoolBy Katherine Paster

Staff WriterHigh school students across

Union County will be able toexplore their artistic abilities in anacademic setting in 2009, as plansare in the works for the creation ofa Union County Academy for Per-forming Arts.

The Union County Board ofChosen Freeholders recentlyannounced the approval of $20 mil-lion in funding for a new county-wide performing arts school, $15million of which will pay for theconstruction of a 42,000-square-foot facility on the county Vo-Techcampus in Scotch Plains.

Construction on the new facility,which is slated to begin in Septem-ber, will include classroom spaceand offices, a 4,000 square-foottheater, a performance studio,dressing rooms and storage spacefor costumes and sets. The buildingis expected to be completed byDec. 2009.

The theater itself will be built inthe "black box" style, creating a

Estradaplain space with undecorated walls.Students will also have access to anoutdoor stage in an exterior court-yard that wil! enable outdoor per-formances, classes, and otherschool gatherings.

"The performing arts arebecoming a vital part of Union

County's economic landscape, andthe Academy for Performing Artswill provide a wonderful opportu-nity for young residents to growinto careers that enrich our commu-nities," said Freeholder ChairmanAngel G Estrada.

Partnering, with Kean Universi-ty, the new Academy for Perform-ing Arts will aim to provide highschool students across UnionCounty with career training indance, acting, stage management,and stage technology.

The remaining $5 million infunds will be used to enhance class-room space at Kean University,where students who attend theUnion County Academy for Per-forming Arts will have the opportu-nity to spend their senior year.

"We are very excited to partnerwith Union County to provide stu-dents with a challenging academicenvironment as they hone their cre-ative skills to professional stan-dards," said Dawood Farahi, presi-dent of Kean University.

Attending classes at the Kean

University campus in Union,UCAPA students will take a fullfreshman college course load, witha concentration in a performing artsmajor. During their year at Kean,students will also have access to theuniversity's studio space, theater,and additional performing artsresources.

"I am proud to welcome theAcademy of Performing Arts to ouraward-winning family of county-wide schools," said Thomas J. Bis-tocchi, superintendent of the UnionCounty Vocational-TechnicalSchools. "I would like to thank allthose who made this partnershipwith Kean University possible."

The Union County Academy ofPerforming Arts, which wil! openin September 2008 with a freshmanclass of 55 students, will be housedin the Academy for Allied HeathSciences while the new facility isunder construction.

The county plans to add addi-tional classes to the school each ofthe three following years, until theschool reaches its planned capacity

of approximately 200 students ingrades 9-12.

Admission to the performingarts academy will be based on stu-dent's GPA, standardized testscores, and two admission assess-ments in writing and mathematics.In addition to being judged on aca-demic excellence, students mustalso audition with a performance indance or theater arts.

The Union County Academy forPerforming Arts mission will be tocreate a highly specialized and safelearning community promotinghonesty, integrity, and citizenshipwhile challenging students throughacademics.

County board laudstowns for sharing

When it comes to saving money, Union County municipalities andschool boards are finding that sharing is the way to go. All 21 local gov-ernments and five school boards have become partners with the county inshared purchasing contracts that help cut costs.

"By joining with the county's purchasing arrangements, municipalitiesand school boards can manage their budgets more efficiently," said Free-holder Chairman Angel G. Estrada. "We strongly encourage local govern-ments to participate in our contracts whenever possible."

There are two kinds of shared county contracts. In cooperative con-tracts, municipalities join with the county to buy high-volume goods,,including fuel, road materials and rock salt. :

Because the bidding process is conducted through county offices, thesecontracts eliminate duplication between layers of government. Municipali-ties and boards can cut their advertising, administrative and attorney costs.

Cooperative contracts also provide any municipality or board, no mat-ter how small, with access to high volume contracts that attract vendorswith more experience and better service.

"Volume discounts can be another benefit of cooperative contracts,"said Estrada. "However, the real savings come from cutting overlap out ofthe bidding process and getting higher quality vendors."

All 21 municipalities currently participate in at least two or more coop-erative contracts with the county.

The other kind of shared contract is extended contracting. In thisarrangement, county contracts can be used by municipalities or schoolboards to purchase goods and services. As with cooperative contracts, localgovernments can eliminate the cost of processing their own public bid, getbetter access to high quality vendors and take advantage of the buyingpower of the county.

Currently, the county's extended contracts cover more than 40 differentgoods and services, from port-a-john rental and snowplows to plumbingservices and locksmithing.

NY shift causes more planes to fly over UCBy Katherine Paster

Staff WriterIn the midst of runway confusion at Newark Airport,

bureaucratic controversy in air traffic control towers and aslew of concerned citizens, the FAA plans to implement yetanother controversial change in airspace patterns — addingeven more aircraft volume over Union and Essex counties.

According to the new flight patterns proposed for imple-mentation at JFK and Long Island satellite airports, west-bound flight departures will now fly on headings directlyabove Union and Essex counties, a plan that could be inplace as early as later this year.

Despite widespread opposition to the FAA's AirspaceRedesign Plan among government officials, airport employ-ees and local citizens, the FAA continues to implement thephases of the controversial plan, which could mean moreaircraft noise and air pollution in the surrounding areas.

"You're going to get a lot of higher altitude traffic, atleast double, meaning there will be hundreds of planes fly-ing overhead each day,".said Robert Belzer, president of theNew Jersey Coalition Against Aircraft Noise, noting theFAA's failure to properly disclose their new flight plans."We don't know how many because the FAA refuses to pro-vide anyone with altitudes;, volume impacts or specific flightpatterns."

According to diagrams submitted to the EnvironmentalProtection Agency by the FAA, the proposed changes inflight patterns from JFK and neighboring airports redirectwestbound flights to the north, streaming the traffic from.

parts of Monmouth County upwards over Essex and Union."The intent is to move it north right over our area," said

Belzer, noting that towns like Livingston, Florham Park andWest Orange will be hit hard by the proposed change. "Eventhough they are not low altitude flights, it's a huge corridor."

Despite ongoing litigation from a number of state, coun-ty, local governments and opposing organizations, the FAAimplemented south bound flight departures last December inthe first of four planned phases of the Airspace RedesignPlan at Newark Airport.

"The FAA's disclosure is so bad I don't think that anyonereally understands what they're up to," said Belzer. "It'svery clear that people don't know what's going to happen,we believe this is all a violation of the environmental reviewprocess."

Since the first phase of the Airspace Redesign Plan wasimplemented in December, numerous problems with thealternative flight patterns have come into frame - includingincidents of pilots making wrong turns on the runway due toa lack of familiarity with the new headings.

According to Ray Adams, Vice President of the NationalAir Traffic Controllers Association union at Newark, confu-sion is occurring because pilots are not being notified oftheir departure routes until they are on the runway preparingto take off.

"The problem is that we have been doing this for 15years one way, and now pilots are being told to change theirheadings and getting confused, which is really causing prob-lems," said Adams, who noted that he witnessed at least 6

pilots make wrong turns during departure.At least II separate lawsuits challenging the airspace

redesign plan have been filed in appellate courts in Wash-ington, Philadelphia, Connecticut, New York and New Jer-sey on behalf of dozens of communities and organizationsthroughout the region.

Union County has also filed suit against the FAA, asnumerous municipalities including the City of Elizabeth willsee spikes in noise and air pollution.

The Government Accountability Office is also examiningthe FAA's redesign, and will release a report investigatingthe plan's environmental impacts on the region and deter-mining whether the agency followed appropriate proceduresin redesigning the airspace.

In December 2005, the FAA proposed a redesign plan forthe New York/New Jersey/Philadelphia metropolitan area itsefforts "to increase the efficiency and reliability of the air-space structure and Air Traffic Control system while main-taining safety."

The airspace redesign involves a 31,000 squpre-mile,five-state area with a population of 29 million residents.

Twenty one airports are included within the project, with.a particular focus placed on air traffic operations at fivemajor airports: Newark Liberty International Airport andTeterboro Airport in New Jersey; John F. Kennedy Interna-tional Airport and LaGuardia Airport in New York; andPhiladelphia International Airport in Pennsylvania.

Legislation helps protect kids, pets from floral giftsAssemblyman Neil M. Cohen pro-

posed recently an interesting gift forMother's Day: safety.

Cohen, D-Union, introduced legisla-tion that would create a list of poisonousplants and flowers available for sale inthe state and require physicians, veteri-narians, and retailers to provide informa-tion on how these plants should be han-dled and displayed.

"Mother's Day is one of the busiestdays of the year for florists nationwide,"

said Cohen. "However, many of the flo-ral arrangements we give as gifts canpose serious health risks to young chil-dren or pets if they are mishandled oringested. No one wants to see their giftof love and appreciation sicken or seri-ously injure a child or household pet."

Cohen':; legislation would require thestate Department of Agriculture, in con-junction with the state Department ofHealth and Senior Services and licensedphysicians and veterinarians, to compile

a list of flowers and plants commonlysold by retailers and florists that are poi-sonous or potentially harmful to smallchildren and household pets if handled oringested.

The bill also would require the cre-ation of informational brochures, detail-ing how best to handle the listed flowersand plants to minimize the risk of harm.These brochures would be made availableto all florists, retail stores that sell flow-ers or plants, general practice physicians,

pediatricians, and veterinarians in thestate. Furthermore, the bill would requirewritten notices containing this informa-tion to be appended to all deliveries offlowers and plants contained on the list.

"Millions of mothers in New Jerseywill receive a floral arrangement thisSunday," said Cohen. "Ensuring thatconsumers know the potential hazardsspecific flowers and plants can pose willhelp keep an unforgettable gift frombecoming an unforgettable nightmare."

12 Miles' 'Darkness to Light' is out of tune

Young Carl van Beethoven played by Dennis DaPrile, left, pleads for understand-ing from his Uncle Ludwig played by David Sedgwick. The world premiere of 'Dark-ness to Light' is being performed at 12 Miles West now through June 8.

By Ruth RossCorrespondent

"Not yet ready for prime time"would be a good description ofAndy Shapiro's play, "Darkness toLight," now receiving its worldpremiere at 12 Miles West, current-ly in residence at Playwrights The-atre of New Jersey in Madison.Shapiro's first attempt at play-wrighting-vvorkshopped twice at 12Miles West is still too long, tooloosely constructed and at times,feels more like an extended Satur-day Night Live sketch. Unfortu-nately, Lenny Bart's desultorydirection and David Sedgwick'sunconvincing performance don'thelp very much.

Shapiro trots out playwrightingcliche after cliche to recount com-poser Ludwig von Beethoven's tor-tured life, from a hellish childhoodunder the thumb and tutelage of anabusive, controlling, alcoholicfather to the debilitating hearingloss that might have defeated a lesstalented and less determined indi-vidual.

The entire play is framed as adeathbed recollection told byBeethoven to his best friend'syoung son. The composer's mount-ing misfortunes include attempts toshake off his humble origins bypassing himself off as an aristocrat;a missed opportunity to become thegreat Mozart's pupil that doesn'tmaterialize because the renownedcomposer dies unexpectedly;falling in love with a beautifulyoung countess, whose father nixesthe union because of Beethoven'shumble origins; embezzlement by atrusted factotum and, of course, thedisability that begins as a ringing inhis ears and progresses to the pointwhere he must use a tuning forkheld in his mouth just to "hear" thepiano as he composes.

Shapiro has provided us with 16different characters, played by fiveactors in a whirlwind of costumechanges. Notable among the bunchare an elegant Brian J. Dowd, whogets to play Beethoven's father, sodisappointed at not being appointedcourt kappelmeister that he takes it

out on his son and descends intodrunkenness, and the long sufferingStephan, Beethoven's best, andonly, friend. Maria Silverman doesa good job as Beethoven's motherand love, but she really shines asBeethoven's vengeful sister-in-lawJohanna, angry at being forced toleave Bonn for Vienna and notabove taking him to court to securesole custody of her son.

Michael Giorgio is appropriate-ly smarmy and sneaky as the thiev-ing personal secretary; Paul Mur-phy gets to chew up the scenery asa Viennese prince and Mozart —albeit he's a bit too old sinceMozart died in his late thirties—and Dennis DaPrile effectivelyplays Beethoven's brother Karl as aservile, submissive man cowed bythe force of his older brother's per-sonality and fame.

The disappointment of theevening lies in David Sedgwick'sportrayal of Beethoven. In a one-note performance —pardon thepun, he's thoroughly unbelievable

Rymer brings 'funky Smith dance brings home the awardsfamily" to UCPAC

Multi-award-winning indie musician and 'From Good Homes' found-ing member Brady Rymer and the Little Band That Could will celebratethe release of Rymer's fifth CD, 'Here Comes Brady Rymer and the Lit-tle Band That Could,' - a 2008 Parents' Choice Gold Award Winner - witha high-spirited, funky family jamboree at .3 p.m. on Sunday at UnionCounty Performing Arts Center, 1601 Irving St., Rahway.

Rymer toured and recorded with the RCA roots/rock band From GoodHomes for 33 years - sharing the stage with the likes of Bob Dylan, DaveMatthews, and the Grateful Dead's Bob Weir - before parenthood broad-ened the scope of his music. Five albums and countless live shows later,this veteran performer has established himself as one of the country'smost captivating creators of music for kids and families. 'Here ComesRymer and the Little Band That Could' marks Rymer's first recordingwith the band he's brought on the road since 2005. Combining a feel-goodR&B foundation with traditional acoustic arrangements and a scoop ofsunny 70's optimism, Rymer and the Little Band That Could have creat-ed a distinctive, modern American roots sound for families raised on rock'n' roli. Every generation connects to this band's strong, straight-aheadgrooves, catchy choruses and irresistibly down-home, hip-shakin' vibe.

Presenting music with the whole family in mind, Rymer and the LittleBand That Could will play plenty of "Rymer favorites," on June 1 in Rah-way, as well as showcasing roots-y, rollicking new tunes from 'HereComes Brady Rymer and the Little Band That Could' like "Road Trip," aboogie-woogie piano-driven rocker about piling into the car and drivingthrough the heartland on a family adventure, and "Jump Up (It's A GoodDay)," whose percolating groove and rich harmonies are as uplifting asthey are infectious, bringing audiences to their feet - and some into theair!

The San Jose Mercury News noted that Rymer's "effortlessly com-bines sparkling elements of folk, roots music and old-time rock 'n' roll."Parenting enthused, "Parents will rock out to Rymer's stirring songs rightalong with their tykes." According to AOL CityGuide, "If Dan Zanes iskindermusik's Bob Dylan, Brady Rymer may be its Jerry Garcia, drawingon his love of old-school folk, country, pop, and blues to create 'jammin'sing-alongs."

Rymer's CDs have been enthusiastically praised by critics across thecountry and have won twelve national awards, including the prestigiousParents' Choice and NAPPA Awards. In an era of character-driven enter-tainment for children, Rymer and the Little Band That Could are the realdeal, a soulful and spirited band bringing great musicianship, superbsongwriting and pure joy to their performances for kids and all genera-tions.

'Darkness to Light'is out of tune

Competition team dancers fromthe Cindy Smith Dance Studio inGarwood participated very success-fully in four dance competitionsthis season - Beyond the Stars;Dancers, Inc.; Starbound; and Tick-et to Broadway.

Aileen Conroy, Kayleigh Pen-der, Vanessa Rosky, and MichelleVenditto danced to "EverybodySalsa" and received a gold andthird place overall, two high silverawards and a gold award.

The girls also danced to "Foot-loose" and achieved a gold and sec-ond place overall, two high silvers,and a gold award.

Stephanie Araneo, Karen Bober,Amber Chabus, Julia Chimienti,Caroline Ehrhardt, Katie Hehl, Jen-nifer Helm, Devin Loh, Kira Loh,and Brianna Virzi danced to "RockThis Party" and received a gold, ahigh silver, and two gold awards.The girls also danced to "BallroomBlitz" and received a gold, high sil-ver, gold, and high gold and first incategory.

Shannon Compton, Rita DeliaValle, Emma Fyhr, and DeannaHehl danced to "Don't Stop theMusic" and received a gold and"We Love to Dance Award," a highsilver, a silver, and a gold award.

(Continued from Page 1)as a composer and pianist: he neverlooks at the keys as he plays andappears to be moving his hands upand down without following themusic playing, and he sways for-ward and backward as though he'sputting emotion into his playing.Worse, he fails to engage any sym-pathy for the character, nor does hedemonstrate awareness of his char-acter's shortcomings or an idea thathe may be repeating his father'smistakes when dealing with hisnephew Carl.

This last fault lies with Shapiro,who has not given Beethovenmoments of epiphany; perhaps thecomposer never had any, but aplaywright can invent some toflesh out the character and to pro-vide an element so necessary todrama since ancient times. - ' ~

The language spoken by theactors is too casually modern to fitthe time and place of the play. Forinstance, when Beethoven calls hisnephew's attempted suicide "a per-manent solution to a temporaryproblem," you know Shapiro's readtoo many psychobabble books.

And while noodling on the

piano, we practically see a light goon over Beethoven's head as aseries of five notes suddenlybecomes the opening of the FifthSymphony. The ending is espe-cially hackneyed: Beethovenascends to heaven and can sudden-ly hear the glorious music he'swritten while deaf.

Jessica Parks' elegant andmulti-functional set, Pamela Sny-der-Gallagher's lavish costumesand Jeff Knapp's beautiful sounddesign can't really rescue thisrather amateurish play.

If Shapiro wants to become aserious playwright, he should takea class or two in the discipline andsee a lot of plays to pick up point-ers to improve his craft.

He's done his research onBeethoven, but he needs to give theman some humanity and the play adramatic point. The last scene istoo late a payoff.

"Darkness to Light" will be per-formed Fridays and Saturdays at 8p.m. and Sundays at 3 p.m. at Play-wrights Theatre, 33 Green VillageRoad in Madison, through June 8.

How to hire the right moversAll Moving companies are

required by law to be licensed bythe U.S. Department of Transporta-tion, but regulations vary, depend-ing on where you are moving.Movers that perform local movingwithin New Jersey must also belicensed by the NJ. Division ofConsumer Affairs. If the moverperforms moving between NewJersey and another state they mustalso be registered with the FederalMotor Carrier Safety Administra-tion. Before hiring a moving com-pany make sure that they are cur-rently ; --licensed;www.njmovers.com lists licensedmovers and provides links whereyou can check movers at the correctgovernment agency website.

Getting an accurate estimate:Beware of internet movers; pricesonline or over the phone may bedeliberately low. ,A reputablelicensed mover will come to yourhome and perform a visual surveyof the items to be packed andmoved and give you a written esti-mate or a binding price as requiredby law. Show the estimator every-thing, have a written list of items tobe moved, not being moved or otherspecial requests. Show all the itemsthat you expect the mover to packand what you will pack. Discuss

delivery dates, access and stairs atyour new home, extra pick-ups ordeliveries and if you want anyboxes unpacked. The final price fornon-binding estimates will be deter-mined by the actual time or weightinvolved plus the actual number ofboxes that the mover packs, as wellas any other requested services. Anaccurate in home survey is the firststep in receiving an accurate esti-mate. Do not accept a mover thatdoes not come to your home.

However, the mover is allowedto change the price if any circum-stances change that were notincluded in the original price. Mov-ing includes normal delivery. Addi-tional charges may be incurred ifproblems arise during your move,especially if known problems arenot included in writing. Some ofthe common reasons are: you didnot get all of your packing complet-ed, or added packing not shown tothe estimator; your shipment isdelivered into an elevator buildingor with flights of stairs; access toyour residence is more that 75 feetfrom the mover's truck to yourfront door; you have added orchanged the items to be moved,changed dates or destination; anddelays beyond the mover's control,such as waiting time for closing or

delivery delays, rearranging furni-ture or restacking in a storagespace, basement, attic or garage.

Movers are only responsible fordamages of 60 cents per pound perarticle unless you purchase addi-tional insurance with your mover.You may be able to purchase cover-age through your homeowner'spolicy or another insurer. Somemovers offer increased-value cov-erage at additional cost before themove begins. Movers do notassume responsibility for: packeddamage in cartons unless packedand unpacked by the mover; oper-ating condition of appliances andelectronics or loss of data; damagedor missing items not specificallyinventoried by the driver and docu-mented as missing on delivery;items previously broken, repairedor glued; damage not documentedon delivery; and money, jewelry orcollections.

Additionally, you must havecash or a certified check to pay thedriver. Personal checks are notacceptable. Not all movers acceptcredit cards; you have to makeadvanced arrangements. Do notpack or ship items that may causedamage to your shipment, such asflammables or liquids. This couldvoid all insurance.
