With the appearance of unde-sirable animal visitors over thepast several weeks, the impetusto renovate the Courtyard areahas become more pressing.

Township authorities say theyare working hard to control thevery visible presence of rats inthe brick-paved area bordered byCharlie Brown’s Steakhouse,

A.S.A.P. Photo Store and TheCourtyard building. The actingsuperintendent of the township’sDepartment of Public Works,Peter Gallitelli, said representa-tives of Western Pest Services,the exterminator contracted torid the open space of vermin, vis-ited the Courtyard June 21 toreview the company’s pest con-trol procedures.

Currently, boxes containingbait are set above ground at vari-

ous locations while poison ispoured into rat holes.

“They’ve upgraded the treat-ment for the holes,” said Mr.Gallitelli. He added the companyalso has strengthened the poisoncontained in traps on the ground.The area, bordered by severaleating establishments, presentsparticular difficulties for pestcontrol.

“Where there are restaurants,there can be a problem,” Mr. Gal-litelli said. “I know they try tokeep it under control.”

The site is supposed to bemonitored daily for clean-up, hesaid. However, last week, severaldead or dying rats appeared forlong periods of time undershrubs near the holes or onCourtyard steps.

The director of the school dis-trict’s special services depart-ment says his department com-pleted the first year of a state-mandated assessment to monitorspecial education programs withflying colors, but still faces twomore years of ongoing review bythe state.

At the June 24 Board of Edu-

cation meeting, Dr. Larry Ashleypresented a report of the firstphase of the three-year program.The report, a profile of the districtdrawn from data culled from dis-trict files, compiled from a surveyof special education parents andsupplemented with findings fromthe strategic assessment programconducted within the districtitself, will be submitted to thestate Department of Education.

The 300- to 400-page assess-ment evaluates the department’sweaknesses and strengths with areview of delivery of programsand their effectiveness, compli-ance with state guidelines andmonitors individual educationalprofile (IEP) procedures.

“Our process was opened up,”said Dr. Ashley later in the week.“We wanted to make it a growthexperience.”

He pointed out the district is aleader in a number of areas, in-cluding the creation of an inte-grated pre-school program andthe partnership with the LovaasInstitute in delivering services tochildren who fall within theautistic spectrum.

The district, he added, has de-veloped an acclaimed transitionprogram under the leadership ofDaphne Gregory and hired Dr.Jed Baker to lead the district’ssocial skills program.

The department received 203responses from a total of 498surveys sent to parents of specialeducation students, a good re-sponse according to Dr. Ashley.Out of that number, 188 reportedsatisfaction with district pro-grams; only 13 respondents re-ported not being satisfied.

While 167 respondents indi-cated they had not attended stateor district sponsored training ses-sions, many parents receive sup-port individually through thespecial services office or throughparental advocacy groups, suchas the Special Education Com-mittee, Dr. Ashley said.

As township residents anddowntown merchants continue toreact to a shake-up at the Down-town Millburn Development Al-liance (DMDA), the township’smayor and business administra-tor are adopting a wait-and-seestance regarding the organiza-tion.

“We have to give them the op-portunity to investigate,” MayorThomas C. McDermott said lastweek of the DMDA’s handling ofinternal personnel issues and thefiring of longtime employee Bar-bara Wolfe. “I don’t know whatwe (municipal officials) are enti-tled to know,” said Business Ad-ministrator Timothy Gordon.“We’re talking about personnelmatters.”

Written communication frommembers of the public regardingthe DMDA has arrived steadily inThe Item office in recent weeks,with a focus on the public’s rightto know in such matters. Mr.Gordon admitted he was unclearas to the DMDA’s status. “I’mnot sure if it’s a governmentagency or a quasi-governmentalagency legally,” he said.

In either case, both officials

Relying on a little help fromsome friends in Hillsborough,the Millburn Fire Departmenthas ascertained the depths ofNorth and South Pond, withsome surprising results.

Battalion Chief Richard Presslof the Fourth Platoon of the firedepartment organized a drill atthe two ponds Saturday, in aneffort to confirm their depth, inthe interest of water rescue train-ing. The depth of North Pondwas as he suspected it would be,about 8 1/2 feet, but South Pondproved to be the shocker.

“It was only 30 feet deep,” thefirefighter said. “We were ex-pecting closer to 100 feet.”

Calling on his colleagues hereand in Hillsborough, the battal-ion chief organized a drill thatbegan shortly after 9 a.m. Satur-

day and lasted for six hours.Joining him at the site weremembers of his platoon andMillburn firefighters SamCaivano from the 2nd Platoonand Don Aurnhammer, both ofwhom were off-duty that day.Sgt. Peter T. Eakley of the Mill-burn Police Department, also thetownship’s deputy emergencymanagement coordinator, volun-teered his services as well. In all,about 12 men were involved inthe drill.

Two members of HillsboroughVolunteer Fire Company No. 3—Battalion Chief Pressl resides inHillsborough—donated the useof a zodiac boat, a rubber raftthat is light and versatile. In all,the drill was conducted withthree boats, two of which haddepth finders on them. A thirdboat, a rowboat, had a drop line.

Volunteers continue their efforts to exploreways of recognizing the township’s veterans.

In a presentation to the Township Commit-tee June 25, Committeewoman Linda Z. Seel-bach updated the governing body and publicon the veteran recognition program communi-ty members are currently undertaking.

A division of the Community Service AwardCommittee, the group has been working fornearly a year on the project, which Ms. Seel-bach first proposed last summer to take stockof and record monuments and history relatedto the township’s veterans.

“We are pleased with the progress we havemade and are looking forward to making thenext steps in veterans’ recognition,” Ms. Seel-bach said at the meeting.

The presentation included 28 images of dif-ferent monuments and cemeteries in a varietyof locations throughout the township.

Taken by police Sgt. Peter Eakley, the town-ship’s deputy emergency management coordi-nator and a member of the recognition group,the pictures portray plaques or monuments at

Apples for all, teachers and pupilsBy Harry Trumboreof The Item

At its meeting June 24, theBoard of Education approved thelease purchase of Apple comput-ers and hardware at a cost of$224,616. At the same time, theboard also approved the pur-chase of Apple audio/visual sup-plies costing $29,656.

The computers will be paid forover time, according to RobertZeglarski, the school district’sbusiness administrator. Approxi-mately $55,000 will be paid nowwith the balance of the paymentsspread over the next three years.

However, at a time when theboard is hearing criticism of itsspending policies, high salariesfor administrators and an upcom-ing bond referendum to fundschool construction, Randall R.Rossilli Jr., the district’s directorof technology, said this week hewants parents and residents to beaware of the new technology’scost effectiveness.

Mr. Rossilli, who came to thedistrict in May 2001, pointed outwhile The International Societyfor Technology in Education rec-ommends school districts spend1 percent of their budget on tech-nology, the cost of the new Applecomputers is less than half of 1percent of the district’s schoolbudget.

The present school budget al-located $80,000 for 40 AppleiBooks, or laptop computers, butMr. Rossilli needed to acquirenearly double that number.

“We made a nice deal withApple pricewise,” Mr. Rossillisaid.

Because technicians in his de-

partment are Apple-certified tomake repairs on the equipmentin-house and the departmentpilots many of the company’sproducts in the school communi-ty, Apple cut its educational salesdiscount. Mr. Rossilli was able tonegotiate a sale price of $75,500for 75 of the computers, of which

15 were free, purchasing themfor roughly half price.

The arrangement means all el-ementary school classes gradesone through five will have pow-erful, G-3, iBooks or iMac desk-top computers.

Three electricaltransformers, which weremounted on wood platforms ontwo utility poles, were on fire,reports state.

One of the two poles hadfailed, according to reports,causing the transformers to slideand short out, igniting the woodpoles, platform, conductor insu-lation, grass, weeds and part ofthe roof façade on the pumphouse.

Capt. Cunningham radioedhis location, and requestedlighting, a generator and thatJersey Central Power and Lightrespond to confirm power wasoff; water company employeeshelped additional firefightersand their apparatus reach theblaze.

After the power was shut,firefighters worked to extin-guish the fire, and checked thepump house roof to see if thefire had extended. They wet

down the area additionally, andcleared the scene at 3:39 a.m.

An auto accident June 25 in-volving a Chevrolet Blazer in-jured its driver and damaged thevehicle.

Members of the Millburn FireDepartment responded to thecall at 5:32 p.m. to assist policeon what was reported as an autoaccident on Old Short HillsRoad with air bags deployed.

Upon their arrival, firefightersunder the command of Capt.Edward Wade found the Blazeroff the road in a landscapedmulch area, according to re-ports; the vehicle had hit a treehead-on.

The occupant was reported assitting on the ground next to thevehicle, and the police depart-

Due to extensive front-end ve-hicle damage, firefighters dis-connected the car battery. Theyalso helped the first aid squadput the driver, who was con-scious and complaining of backpain, onto a stretcher, accordingto reports.

Field should remain grass

Editor, The Item:When I was a child, our school

restored our fields by enrichingthem with topsoil, mulch andlime after football season. By thefirst spring thaw a spiked drumfilled with the proper mix of grassseed was rolled on the field beforebaseball season. The last week ofschool the fields were spot seededand covered with salt hay.

The world cannot afford artifi-cial vinyl turf because of globalwarming due to proliferatingfossil fuels. A senator fromOregon is about to unveil a studyshowing that approximately one-quarter to one-third of the prob-lem of excess carbon dioxide,pollution and global warming canbe alleviated by reforesting clear-cut blighted areas, conservation,and filling in strip mines andbrown areas caused by industrialslums and waste.

Trees and grass inhale carbondioxide by day and exhale oxygenby night, while absorbing dustand air pollution. Eliminating thegrassy meadows in our town isexpensive, unhealthy and ecolog-ically unsound.

Artificial turf is vulnerable tobeing vandalized, slashed withknives and spray-painted withgraffiti.

To say we buy the most expen-sive things for our children begsthe question ought we do so fortownship school children with taxdollars. Consumer Report tells us

that Toyota Camrys and Avalonsare equivalent to comparableLexis models, also manufacturedby Toyota. The only difference is$10,000 to $15,000 in price.

Millburn cannot affordgrandiosity and invective. Liv-ingston just hired a new superin-tendent of schools for $160,000whose salary at Mount Olive was$148,000. Millburn just hired anew superintendent of schools for$200,000 and a million-dollarcontract.

The Board of Education needsto purchase value-priced prod-ucts. Common sense, commoncourtesy and uncommon decencyand discretion must prevail. The

township’s school children arewatching and listening.

The Township Committeeworks with a Citizen’s BudgetAdvisory Committee. This adds alayer of sunshine and transparen-cy its members realize actuallyhelps to refine their thoughts,expand the facts they review andgive them added experience andperspective.

The school board needs aBudget Advisory Committee aswell to brainstorm and collabo-rate with them and give themadded perspective and experi-ence, and to ask questions, suchas whether the foundation of aschool addition would support an-other level if needed. It would,hopefully, also raise the schoolboard’s consciousness to vendors’lobbying tactics and the spin theyput on their products.

I hope our fields and meadowsremain grass and that a petitionfor a Budget Advisory Committeeis created for the school board. Itwould provide a forum where theexperience and wisdom of priorboard and officeholders could beshared with all.

Stop & Shop not wanted

Editor, The Item:On June 18 at the Springfield

Board of Adjustment hearingconcerning the site plan of theproposed Stop & Shop on Mill-burn Avenue, the second part ofthe proceedings were opened tocitizens to voice their concernsabout the project. From what Iobserved at this standing-room-only meeting, the only one whowants a Stop & Shop store at thesite of the former Saks FifthAvenue is Stop & Shop.

In fact, the board ruled thatvariances granted to Saks did notapply to Stop & Shop. But Stop& Shop appealed to the NewJersey Supreme Court and thecourt instructed the board to ap-prove the application unlessthere was a threat to publicsafety.

The assumption that appears tobe shared by everyone but Stop& Shop is that when (not if) de-liveries from the anticipated 30-some trucks per day start to backup, the trucks will be placed in astop-and-go cruising pattern on

The brew-hahaWe’re in the soup again, and we’re not just talking

weather.A political brew is boiling in the state and no one is cer-

tain how the ingredients in the stock will taste.With New Jersey and the rest of the nation struggling to

climb out of a recession, we’re handed a concoction todigest known as the corporate business tax overhaul.

The bill closes loopholes to ostensibly create a moreequitable tax base for businesses. It also raises the mini-mum tax for employers and removes certain deductions.Out-of-state businesses will be expected to pay more as aresult of this bill.

Projected to raise nearly $1 billion in revenues for thestate’s coffers, taxes raised from the business communitywill help balance Gov. James McGreevey’s $23.4 billionspending program.

At least that’s the game plan.The corporate business tax bill is one aspect of a deal

that impacts the state and our community.Political maneuverings have thrown the tax bill into the

same pot as a proposal for a sports arena in Newark.As we sit here pondering our exodus to Morris County,

to escape what we perceive as an unfair tax burden inEssex County, we’re wondering a) how the arena plansbenefit Essex County as a whole, and b) whether thebusiness community will continue to regard New Jerseyin a flavorful light.

Why should we care? The property tax reforms wewere promised are not forthcoming, are they? How couldthey be, given the state of the present economy?

Property taxes in this state and in this community con-tinue to place us at the top of lists, national and statewide.The uncertainty of this latest McGreevey “solution” toour budget woes and the continued debate over theNewark arena are not likely to help bring our propertytaxes down anytime soon.

We applaud Gov. McGreevey’s efforts to balance thebudget and we support his cost-saving measures. We’renot so sure about his decision to divert money from thesettlement with the tobacco industry to save the budget.We’re even less sure about politicians who tie high ticketdevelopment projects to budgetary measures.

A sharper knife applied to the fat in state governmentmight offset the questionable mixture that is developingfrom combining a corporate tax overhaul with a specula-tive sports arena project.

It just might prove to be a recipe for financial disaster.

Hundreds of thousands ofacres in New Jersey’s Highlands,deemed critical for protectingwater supplies, wildlife habitatand recreation, are threatened bysprawl development and needpermanent protection. Whenour federal elected officialsdemonstrate that they understandthe importance of protecting theHighlands and bring critical dol-lars to the region, it is cause forcelebration.

Recently, urged by NewJersey’s Congressional delega-tion—with CongressmanRodney Frelinghuysen (R-11)leading the charge—the HouseSubcommittee on Interior Ap-propriations approved $6.3 mil-lion in federal funding to protectcritical lands in the New JerseyHighlands. In the Senate, the fullAppropriations Committee ap-proved $5.63 million for theselands.

If approved, the funds will

protect one of New Jersey’s lastwild places. Even more strikingthan the Highlands’ breathtakingscenery, natural diversity andwildlife habitat, is its value as thesource and guardian of drinkingwater supplies for more than halfof New Jersey’s residents—fromwells providing water to homesin the Highlands, to reservoirssupplying water to nearly fourmillion people living in northernand central New Jersey.

Almost every member of NewJersey’s Congressional delega-tion helped secure Highlandsfunding. New Jersey’s seniormember on the House Appropri-ations Committee, Rep. Frel-inghuysen was instrumental, andRepresentatives Marge Roukemaand Frank Pallone worked to-gether on a letter to the subcom-mittee recommending approval.Nearly every House member ofthe New Jersey delegation signedthe letter, showing strong supportfor protecting the Highlands.Senators Jon Corzine and RobertTorricelli played leadership roles

Highlands deserve fundsfor permanent protection

A wrecked sports car in-volved in a drunk driving acci-dent sat in front of an area highschool in June with a messageto young drivers that no livesare worth sparing. I could notagree more.

With prom and graduationseason now past us, the start ofanother summer is alwayslong-awaitedamong ouryoung peopleand their fami-lies. It is a timeto get awayfrom it all, tounwind andenjoy life outside of the work-place. Unfortunately for many,this summer will be their lastbecause a drunk driver gotbehind the wheel. Drinkingand driving are two deadlycombinations that destroymore than just individuals;they destroy families.

Take the case of a 16-year-old New Jerseyan whose lifeended after she made the mis-take on June 22 of last year ofgetting in a car driven by adriver who was under the in-fluence of alcohol. She wasvery involved in school, hadlots of friends. Her parents areleft with a giant void that willnever be filled.

A 22-year-old mother,preschool teacher and part-time

model was on her way homefrom a concert in 1996 when aman who was driving his car onthe wrong side of the road hither car head-on. The crash lefther seriously injured. She brokeher left femur, pelvis, ribs, andright forearm. She also suffereda lacerated liver, a torn and col-lapsed aorta and was placed on

a ventilator.She was in acoma for fourweeks. Al-though sheawoke fromthe coma, shewas perma-

nently paralyzed from the acci-dent.

Despite these real life storiesthat would make one think weare a smarter nation when itcomes to driving while intoxi-cated, statistics continue to in-dicate that alcohol remains theleading factor in motor vehicledeaths.

In 2000, nearly 17,000 per-sons were killed in alcohol-re-lated traffic accidents—an in-crease of 4 percent over 1999.The National Highway TrafficSafety Administration(NHTSA) estimates that alco-hol was involved in 40 percentof fatal crashes and in 8 per-cent of all crashes in 2000.

Despite the fact we have

the triangle of Millburn, ShortHills and Morris avenues, alongwith the traffic that is already inplace and the several hundred ad-ditional cars the store brings tothe location.

In addition to the sheer volumeof new traffic, there were ques-tions about the ability of largetractor-trailer rigs to make rightturns at Millburn and Short Hillsavenues, especially during hightraffic periods, as well as the ca-pacity of a local bridge to supportthe weight of the loaded rigs.There were also questions aboutthe potential for some trucks toavoid stop lights and traffic bytaking shortcuts through adjacentSpringfield and Short Hills sidestreets, many of which do nothave sidewalks and are loadedwith children of all ages.

Many other issues werebrought up, including noise, airand floodlight pollution; basedon the court’s instructions, how-ever, the only issue that is perti-nent to the application is safety.

In July the board will hear at-torney summations and in Augustthey will begin deliberations onthe Stop & Shop application. Ifyou are not content to accept thesafety hazards presented by aStop & Shop, and if you believethe streets are already unsafewithout adding the traffic of 30 ormore trucks and several hundredadditional cars per day, let theboard know how you feel.

Now is the time to address thisissue. Once the deal is done it

cannot be undone. And everyonewho lives or drives in the area willhave to accept the consequences.

DMDA investigationEditor, The Item:

As someone who has recentlyquestioned the Downtown Mill-burn Development Alliance(DMDA) and its budget, I felt Imust address the article in TheItem’s June 20 edition.

I was appalled to read of thefiring of the DMDA’s very com-petent events coordinator. I ques-tion whether it is prudent that theso-called personnel issue be han-dled and investigated by the cur-rent DMDA executive committee.I am in complete agreement withthe editorial position of The Item,that the public deserves to knowwhat’s going on. Furthermore, anoutside body should, in my opin-ion, investigate this “problem.”

Our Township Committee,which comprises a group of com-petent, intelligent, fair-mindedpeople, is charged with the re-sponsibility of reviewing and ap-proving the DMDA budget. Itherefore think, since we aredealing with an organization thatexists with public funding, thatour Committee should handle theinvestigation into this matter.

Wolfe appreciationEditor, The Item:

How ironic that The Item posi-tions the stories about the Down-

town Millburn Development Al-liance’s legal woes over thefiring of Barbara Wolfe next topictures of the Millburn FarmersMarket!

After all, wasn’t it Ms. Wolfewho planned and implementedfood demonstrations with localrestaurants, formatted the chil-dren’s educational learning ac-tivities program, set up field tripswith local nursery schools,scheduled gardening and nutri-tional guests lecturers, and en-couraged the downtown busi-nesses to promote themselves onFridays by setting up displays atthe market?

Is it any wonder that today theMillburn Farmers Market enjoys areputation as being one of the bestin the area, despite the fact thatthere is a farmers market in everyone of our surrounding communi-ties? Like the saying goes, “if youbuild it, they will come.”

Thank you, Barbara. No doubt,from what I have been hearingand reading, no one from theDMDA has probably ever saidthat to you. Your eight years ofbuilding the Millburn FarmersMarket speaks for itself, as evi-denced by the record crowds thatit draws today. Best of luck to youas you move on to better things.

Thank youEditor, The Item:

Gowns have been returned,diplomas are in hand, and Mill-burn High School’s Class of2002 is now left with wonderfulmemories of Senior Celebration.This class turned out all year, inrecord numbers and with enor-mous enthusiasm, for everyevent, whether it was modelingin the Fashion Show or playingbasketball against the HarlemWizards. The last week of schoolwas no exception.

Thank you to Syd’sRestaurant and Arizona Iced Teafor their enormous generosity.More than three-quarters of thesenior class participated in theall-night party at RexPlex. Thankyou to the Mintz’s and theKamins, our junior class parentchaperones. The following day,the class was treated to a won-derful buffet breakfast. Andnearly the entire class sailed offon a memorable midnight cruiseon graduation night.

All these activities provided awonderfully cohesive ending toour seniors’ high school experi-

ence, in an atmosphere that wasboth fun and alcohol/drug free.The parents, faculty, administra-tors and community deserve agreat of thanks for their support.

In particular, a great deal ofappreciation is extended to theparents who worked so diligentlyto raise the funds needed to pro-vide these activities free ofcharge to every student.

A great deal of appreciationgoes to the administration, espe-cially Dr. Keith Neigel andNancy Siegel, for their concern,support and wisdom over thispast year. Most especially, thankyou to the Senior Celebrationcommittee members: co-chairsElise Berg, Renee Litinger andEileen Petrucelli; Jeanne Gar-land, treasurer; and ValerieBleier, publicity chair. Each ofthese women put in countlesshours and served with devotion,creativity, patience, and, mostimportantly, humor.

complish when it works together. Karen Burrick

in securing funding approvals inthe Senate. New Jersey’s Con-gressional delegation deservesour thanks.

“Congressman Frelinghuysenhas once again demonstrated hisleadership and commitment toprotecting the critical treasuresof the Highlands,” said TomGilbert, executive director of theHighlands Coalition, a group ofmore than 90 organizationsworking to protect the region.

Last year, $5 million in ForestLegacy funds helped the state ac-quire conservation easements toprotect 9,000 acres in Newark’sPequannock watershed, in theheart of the Highlands in Passaic,Morris and Sussex counties.

Both the House and Senatebills also contain $2.3 millionfrom the Land & Water Conser-vation Fund (LWCF) for thethird and final phase of a criticalland acquisition and wildlifehabitat restoration project in theWallkill National WildlifeRefuge, located on the WallkillRiver at the western edge of theHighlands in Sussex County.

Both bills will now move tothe floor of their respectivechambers, and then to confer-ence committee. With manysteps left in the process, we en-courage you to log onto theHouse and Senate Web sites(www.house.gov and www.sen-ate.gov, respectively) and contactthe chairmen of the appropria-tions committees and the leader-ship of both houses to expressyour strong support for thesefederal funds.

The U.S. Forest Service draftstudy on the Highlands, releasedthis spring, found nearly 300,000acres of threatened and unpro-tected lands with high valuewater resources in the Highlandsin New York and New Jersey.The cost associated with protect-ing these lands is staggering. Therecent drought crisis and itsimpact on New Jersey drinkingwater supplies makes it moreclear than ever that help fromfederal government is critical toprotecting the Highlands. Weneed to thank our Congressionalrepresentatives and urge them tokeep the funds flowing and seekeven more ways to preserve theHighlands.

We hope you’ll contact us at(888) 526-3728 or visit NJCF’sWeb site at www.njconserva-tion.org for more informationabout conserving New Jersey’sprecious land and natural re-sources.

laws on the books in all 50 statesmaking it illegal to consume alco-hol under the age of 21, that hasnot stopped our young peoplefrom being killed in drunk-drivingcrashes on our nation’s highways.In 2000, some 2,400 people be-tween the ages of 15 and 20 werekilled in alcohol-related trafficcrashes.

Here in New Jersey, 319 peoplelost their lives in 2000 from alco-hol-related accidents. Thatnumber becomes even harder toswallow when you consider thatamounted to 44 percent of trafficaccident-related deaths in ourstate that year.

We have made some headwayover the years in lessening in-stances of DWI accidents. Arecent Senate task force on alco-hol related motor vehicle acci-dents and fatalities in New Jerseyfound that repeat DWI offendersare more likely to have higherrates of alcoholism and alcohol-related problems. Given this infor-mation, my Assembly colleaguefrom the 21st District, Thomas H.Kean Jr., has sponsored legislationwith Assemblyman Nicholas As-selta to make third and subsequentconvictions for DWI a fourth-degree crime in our state.

Currently, nine bills are pendingin the state legislature that address

drunk driving. These range fromincreasing the drunk driving sur-charge to reducing the blood alco-hol level at which a person is con-sidered to be guilty of drunk dri-ving from 0.10 percent to .08 per-cent.

All the laws in the world, how-ever, cannot substitute forcommon sense on the part of thedriver and individuals who havethe opportunity to stop a intoxicat-ed person from getting behind thewheel. Restaurants and taverns, aswell persons holding privatehouse parties, have a moral re-sponsibility not to serve alcohol toan intoxicated individual.

As a trauma surgeon, I have toooften been the physician responsi-ble for telling a victim’s familythat a drunk driver has killed theirloved one. I have witnessed thepain and grief suffered by thesefamilies. But ultimately individu-als have the responsibility behindthe wheel. During the holiday andsummer season, please don’tdrink and drive.

Assemblyman Dr. Eric Muñoz isa professor of surgery and atrauma surgeon at the Universityof Medicine and Dentistry of NewJersey. He was sworn in as amember of the state General As-sembly to fill a vacancy in May2001 and was re-elected to a full,two-year term in November. Hecurrently serves on the AssemblyCommerce and Economic Devel-opment Committee.

TRIBUTE TO ROMANCE—Katie Anson and Mark Permanare two of the performers appearing from July 12 to July21 in “South Pacific” at the New Jersey Performing ArtsCenter in Newark through a joint venture of the West-field Young Artists Cooperative Theatre and NJPAC.

Pedophilia (and that’s not“people who love to bicycle,” asPaula Vogel reminds us in herPulitzer Prize-winning play “HowI Learned To Drive”) may be whateveryone’s focusing on in “Darkat the Center”—selected aswinner of TheatreFest 2002’s Re-gional Playwriting Contest andcurrently on stage at MontclairState.

But author Deborah Savadge,much in the tradition of off-Broadway’s new favorite youngplaywright, Rebecca Gilman, hasmuch broader issues on hermind—concerns of innocencepresumption, of the media as astoker of fevered accusations andpremature pronouncements ofguilt, of the American justicesystem’s failures to providegreater safeguards against whole-sale character assassination.

Add the legacy of sexual abusewithin a dysfunctional family andquestions about the computer as atool of betrayal, and you haveenough to keep several youngplaywrights busy pecking away attheir keyboards.

If only Ms. Savadge evidenceda firm creative hand with her ma-terial and did not, instead, expendall of her many gifts in a rather or-dinary working out of her story,“Dark at the Center” might provecompelling and eerily timely.From the opening three scenes,each beginning identically andthen veering off into new territo-ry, the play suggests a writer insearch of her voice and embrac-ing arbitrary theater language inan attempt to give her worknuance.

Characters seem clueless as tohow their behavior reads to theoutside world. These are acade-mics, after all—a popular collegeprofessor accused of inappropri-ately touching a young child he istutoring as a volunteer, his Ph.D.aspiring wife.

Doesn’t anyone know that if thepress knocks, you don’t have to

answer, let alone get into a yell-fest on your front lawn? Is it im-plausible to suggest that if yourbest friend sounds nothing butskeptical of your husband’s inno-cence, you should have senseenough, early on, to quit the end-less shmoozing? And has no oneconsidered that an adolescentson’s disturbed childhood memo-ries and intense anger toward hisstepfather just might suggest a

young man in desperate need ofhelp?

John J. Wooten has directed thisworld premiere, utilizing the aisleand wings of the newly recondi-tioned L. Howard Fox Studio The-atre to good advantage. His ablecast works diligently, if ultimatelyunsuccessfully, to transform theauthor’s rather lifeless, cardboard-cutout characters into flesh andblood protagonists.

A craggy, quietly intenseReathel Bean plays OliverCrane—ethics professor turnedindicted molester, swept up in afrenzy of legal minutia and publicaccusation that he is powerless tocontrol. Melissa Hurst is wifeJane, forced finally to choose be-tween love for her husband and aprimal devotion to her troubledson, Simon, played earnestly ifsomewhat irritatingly by MichaelMurphy.

Ron Berglas’ Jack is a sympa-thetic, professionally slick lawyerand Jean Tafler fills the dual rolesof friend and television reporter.

For Ms. Savadge, winning theTheatreFest 2002 contest shouldinsure the confidence necessary tocontinue exploring big themesthat capture her imagination. Herraw talent for writing is indis-putable. She knows a good storywhen she sees it. Now it’s time tohone those skills that turn a wellmeaning but benign theater pieceinto a gripping, insightful winner.

Performances of “Dark at theCenter” at TheatreFest 2002,Montclair State University, con-clude Sunday. For ticket informa-tion call (973) 655-5112.

The Millburn Fire Departmentis continuing its collection of alu-minum cans to benefit the Alu-minum Cans for Burned Children(ACBC) recycling program.

Donations of empty aluminumcans will help raise money for ed-ucation programs, fire safetybrochures, special equipment andservices for young burn patients,summer camp for recuperatingburned children, and a mobilesafety fire house that travelsthroughout New Jersey teachingfire prevention to children.

To make donations, deliverempty aluminum beverage cans(no tin cans) to the fire depart-ment at 459 Essex Street or 315White Oak Ridge Road.Marked containers are availablebehind both sites, and deliveries

can be made 365 days a year.“Township cooperation in the

ACBC program has been ap-proved by our Township Com-mittee,” said Battalion ChiefMike Roberts, who coordinatesthe ACBC program at local andstate levels. “We hope our Mill-burn-Short Hills families willstart saving their aluminum bev-erage cans today and will con-tribute them to our ACBC pro-gram. This can be a continuousand worthwhile family projectthat benefits us all.”

The ACBC program was start-ed in 1986 by firefighters in NewJersey, and the Millburn Fire De-partment was the third depart-ment in the state to join it. Formore information, call the firedepartment at (973) 564-7035.

Increased research, educationand funding will improve thetreatment of people who experi-ence cardiac arrest, according to areport by resuscitation expertspublished in a recent issue of Cir-culation: Journal of the AmericanHeart Association.

The report from the PULSEconference (Post-Resuscitativeand Initial Utility in Life-SavingEfforts) says better resuscitationstrategies could have a hugeimpact in the United States. Morethan 680 Americans die each daydue to cardiac arrest, according tostatistics from the AmericanHeart Association (AHA). Ap-proximately 250,000 people dieannually from sudden cardiacarrest and barely 5 percent of vic-tims currently survive says theAmerican Heart Association.

“We have an opportunity to pri-oritize a science that will lead im-mediately, I think, to savingmany, many lives, not only in theUnited States, but worldwide,”said Dr. Lance Becker, leadauthor of the report and a profes-sor of clinical medicine in theemergency medicine section atthe University of Chicago.

Resuscitation research focuseson investigating conditions thatinitiate, mediate and result whenall of the body’s organs are de-prived of oxygen. The PULSEreport states that better methodsare needed to lower the risk ofinjury and promptly restore car-diopulmonary (heart-lung) andcerebral (brain) function. “Theintent is to minimize tissue injuryand maximize tissue and organrepair,” the report says.

The recommendations evolvedfrom a two-day conference heldduring the summer of 2000,during which a panel of resuscita-tion experts reviewed the status ofresuscitation science and sought

to chart a course to improve thescience. Their recommendations:

Develop a National Center forResuscitation Research, a multi-ple agency collaboration focusingon resuscitation science and relat-ed activities.

Implement programs that prior-itize support for resuscitation re-search.

Establish a support system topromote and coordinate basic andclinical research in resuscitation.

Establish databases of clinicalcases of resuscitation.

Prioritize new resuscitationstrategies.

Form resuscitation expertpanels to review National Insti-tutes of Health (NIH) applica-tions.

Promote professional andpublic education and training inresuscitation medicine.

“Coronary heart disease is thesingle largest killer of Americans,but it gets less than half the fund-ing devoted to cancer research,”said the report’s co-author, Dr.Max Harry Weil, of the Instituteof Critical Care Medicine in PalmSprings, Calif. “Within that lim-

ited scope of funding for heartdisease research, the area of car-diopulmonary resuscitation his-torically has had negligible fund-ing.”

The 2000 conference has sinceattracted the attention and assis-tance of key members of the Na-tional Institutes of Health to im-prove funding for resuscitation re-search, Dr. Weil said.

A principal objective of thePULSE initiative was to stimulateresearch into the underlying biol-ogy and physiology of cardiacarrest. Progress toward develop-ing more effective resuscitationstrategies has been hampered by alack of understanding about thebasic processes involved in car-diac arrest. One research prioritylisted by the PULSE expert panelincludes investigating theprocesses underlying “hiberna-tion physiology.” For instance,hibernating animals tolerate is-chemia (loss of blood flow) andreperfusion (restoration of bloodflow) without injury and thereforerepresent a potentially valuablemodel for studying ways to im-prove outcomes from ischemic

injury, researchers say. Based on experience in animal

studies, the heart rate decreases toas little as 5 percent of normalduring hibernation - a level thatwould be lethal during activestates. The panel states that thisarea of research is intriguing be-cause it appears that the heart isnot damaged during the pro-longed “ischemic” state, nor doesthe cardiac rhythm deteriorate.

Other research priorities citedby the authors include improvedunderstanding of existing andproposed therapies for cardiacarrest, investigating the therapeu-tic potential of hypothermia(cooling) and controlled reperfu-sion, developing better experi-mental models to study cardiacarrest, developing sensors todetect critical restrictions in bloodflow; and organizing research net-works to promote collaborativeinvestigations.

“We are on the brink of majorscientific progress in the field ofresuscitation. Investment at thiscritical point in time will lead toimportant advances,” Dr. Beckersaid.

Call the AHA (800) 242-8721or visit americanheart.org to learnabout community efforts tostrengthen the AHA chain of sur-vival, a four-step process that canmean the difference between lifeand death for someone experienc-ing sudden cardiac arrest, heartattack, near drowning, choking orairway obstruction, respiratoryarrest and other medical emergen-cies.

The AHA chain of survival fea-tures four “links” or steps: EarlyAccess (know the signs and call9-1-1 immediately); Early CPR;Early Defibrillation; and EarlyAdvanced Care (rescuesquad/paramedics on the scenebecause 9-1-1 was called).

Some estimates put the cost of afour-year college education atmore than $100,000, and with col-lege education costs continuing torise annually, it’s important to startplanning as early as possible for achild’s future.

Whether your child is 16months or 16 years old, the NewJersey Society of Certified PublicAccountants (NJSCPA) advisesevery parent to be aware of thefollowing information on variousaccounts, loans and programs:

Up to $500 per year, per childunder 18 years old, can be con-tributed to Education IRAs.(However, the $500 amount isphased out depending on incomelevels.) Contributions are tax-freeand remain tax-free when distrib-uted for qualified education ex-penses. A six percent excise taxwill be applied if contributionsfrom all sources exceed $500 perchild.

Because of a special distribu-tion payout rule, Roth IRAs serveas a great source for funding col-lege educations. Money can bewithdrawn up to the original con-tribution amount tax-free even ifyou are under age 59 and one-half.If earnings are withdrawn on theoriginal contributions to pay forqualified education expenses, theywill be included in gross incomecalculations, but will not be sub-ject to the 10 percent early with-drawal penalty.

The HOPE Scholarship taxcredit allows up to $1,500 in taxcredits for each individual whocarries half of the normal full-timecourse load. Students claimed asdependents on another person’stax return cannot claim the crediton their own returns.

The Lifetime Learning taxcredit provides an annual 20 per-cent tax credit on the first $5,000

of tuition with a maximum of$1,000 per year. The credit appliesto the household, not each individ-ual student, and can be used byanyone who is enrolled in college.It is important to note that onlyone of these credits can beclaimed in a year for the same stu-dent. Just as with the HOPEScholarship credit, studentsclaimed as dependents on anoth-er’s person’s tax return cannotclaim the credit on their own re-turns.

The New Jersey Better Educa-tional Trust Program is a Section529 “qualified state tuition” plan.This is an excellent resource be-cause anyone can contribute to theplan, subject to existing gift taxlimitations. The earnings growtax-deferred for federal purposes,but are never subject to tax forNew Jersey purposes. If the bene-ficiary of the plan doesn’t use themoney for higher education pur-poses, another family member can.

Student loans are qualified edu-cation loans taken out exclusivelyfor the purposes of funding ahigher education. Individuals candeduct interest paid on theseloans; however, only the first 60months of interest payments areeligible. The maximum deductibleamount for 2000 is $2,000 (whichis phased out depending onincome levels).

If loans, grants and funds arenot possibilities, consider a homeequity loan and claim the loan in-terest as an itemized deduction, upto a maximum debt of $100,000.

The NJSCPA recommends con-sulting a certified public accoun-tant for guidance in all state andfederal tax matters. To locate aCPA to assist with your tax prepa-ration or financial matters, visitthe NJSCPA online referral ser-vice at www.njscpa.org/findacpa.

In an effort to modernize NewJersey’s computer crimes law forthe information age, the SenateJudiciary Committee approvedlegislation June 13 that would sig-nificantly update the law to ac-count for technological changesthat have occurred since the law’sinception.

Sponsored by state Sen.Richard Bagger (R-21), the mea-sure, S1355, includes definitionsand provisions to reflect modernday realities of the computerworld, many of which did notexist when the state’s computercrimes law was enacted in 1984.

“The original computer crimeslaw served New Jersey well fornearly 20 years,” said Mr. Bagger.“Many of the original provisionsin the law have been antiquatedby the rapid pace of innovationand advancement in the computerand networking industries. Up-dating the relevant criminalstatutes is the only way to ensurethe adequate protection of the cit-izens and businesses of the state.”

In addition to revising some de-finitions, including “computer”and “data,” to update and makethem consistent with federal law,the legislation adds new defini-tions, including those for “Inter-net” and “personal identifying in-formation.”

The legislation also redefineswhat acts constitute computercriminal activity, and includes

new “anti-hacker” provisions toprotect data and the computersand networks they are stored in.The unauthorized access,damage, or destruction of data orcomputer systems is covered ascomputer criminal activity underthe measure.

“Sensitive personal, financialand government information isstored on computers, and is in-volved in millions of networkedtransactions every day,” said Mr.

Bagger. “The computer systemsthat store and share that informa-tion are magnets for computercriminals, and whether or not ourcurrent criminal statutes offer ap-propriate protections is unclear.This update will ensure that hack-ers and other criminals who breakinto computers and networks arerightfully described as computercriminals.”

Violations for the various pro-visions in the bill range from a

third degree crime for accessing acomputer without authorization,to a first degree crime where a vi-olation results in a substantial in-terruption to a critical service, orwhen damages or losses exceed$250,000 or causes serious bodilyinjury.

The legislation also clarifies thelocation of an offense, to includeboth the location of the computerthat was accessed and the locationof the computer that was used tocommit the offense. This wouldcover hackers or other criminalslocated in New Jersey who attackcomputers outside the state, andalso hackers outside New Jerseyattacking the computer systems inthe state.

“The Internet has made theworld a smaller place, and hasmade distance a non-issue withregard to computer crimes,” notedMr. Bagger. “Criminals whoattack computers in New Jerseywill be held liable whether theyare located around the corner, oraround the world.”

The measure now heads to thefull Senate for consideration.

As part of its Web site, theMillburn-Short Hills Chamberof Commerce maintains anonline calendar of events. Thecalendar, which can be accessedat www.millburnchamber.com,features chamber and commu-nity events as well as specialprograms and promotions of-fered by chamber members.

Jordan Maleh and ElizabethRiva, members of last week’sMillburn High School graduatingclass, are the Millburn HighSchool Varsity Club’s Athletes ofthe Year for the 2001-02 academicyear.

“Being voted athlete of the yearmeant a lot to me, said Maleh, atwo-sport star in basketball andbaseball who is bound for the Uni-versity of Connecticut. “It meanteven more knowing that my peersand school voted for me. It wasrewarding to me that all my hardwork the past four years was rec-ognized by the student body. Itwasn’t a goal of mine to win ath-lete of the year, but it was alwaysin the back of my mind to makeme work harder and be the bestthat I could be.”

Maleh, the son of Ed and HeddaMaleh, departs Millburn as theschool’s all-time scoring leader inbasketball. The 6-4 forward/guardscored 1,457 points in his fouryears as a member of the Millerboys’ basketball program, shatter-ing the team career record of1,292 established by 1995 gradu-ate Dino Yiannopoulos. He alsoeclipsed Jackie Holle’s schoolcareer scoring record of 1,392points. Holle graduated fromMillburn in 1984.

Maleh scored 421 points as asenior, an average of 17.5 pointsper outing, in 24 games for Mill-burn. The Millers finished 6-18under first-year head coachRodger Blind.

The captain of the 2001-02Miller basketball squad, Malehwas a three-time All-NorthernHills Conference selection. Hewas an All-Suburban Divisionfirst team selection as a sopho-more in 1999-2000. Maleh earnedAll-Skyline Division first teamhonors as a junior and senior.

Maleh, who intends for playbaseball for the Big East Confer-ence Huskies, put up some im-pressive numbers this spring forMillburn’s 21-11 state section

champion baseball team. Maleh, aright-handed first-baseman whobats left-handed, hit .402 with fourdoubles, a team-leading eighttriples, two homers and 29 RBI.His .402 average was second onlyon the team to senior third base-man Jordan Hellman. Maleh andsophomore designated hitter ChrisParcells, Maleh’s heir apparent atfirst base, shared the team RBIlead.

Maleh concluded his inter-scholastic career with 109 hits,second only to 1986 graduateBrad Remig’s 117 hits since thelate Phil Krug (Millburn’s coachfrom 1981 to 2000) began chron-icling career records upon takingover as head coach. Maleh, whoplayed on the North Jersey, Sec-tion 2, team in last month’s NewJersey Scholastic BaseballCoaches Association All-StarGames at Princeton University,was a three-time All-NorthernHills Conference selection. Hegarnered Suburban Division firstteam honors in 2000 and SkylineDivision first team honors thisspring in addition to being to Sky-line Division second team selec-tion in 2001.

Riva, daughter of Robert andNancy Riva, excelled in soccer,winter track and spring trackduring her four-year high schoolcareer. Riva, the winner of 12 var-sity letters, plans to play intercol-legiate soccer at Penn State Uni-versity

“Winning the Athlete of theYear Award is one of the biggestaccomplishments I have workedfor during my high school career,”Riva said. “It’s a title that would-n’t have been possible without thestrive and persistence that I hadboth mentally and physically.Being the person I am today, I findthat how I perform on the field andmy inner desire contribute to mysuccesses and losses.

“Being Athlete of the Year is anhonor, but without my coachesfrom soccer and track, I wouldnever have been able to be whereI am today. If you have a figurewho believes in you and actuallywants you to go beyond your ca-

pabilities, personal success is au-tomatic.”

Riva, one of best-ever girls’soccer players, capped a brillianthigh school career this past fall asthe recipient of Northern Hills,Skyline Division and EssexCounty Girls Soccer Coaches As-sociation first team honors. Shealso was a Star-Ledger All-EssexCounty first team selection andearned Star-Ledger All-Group 3third team laurels in addition tobeing selected to the New JerseyGirls Soccer Coaches Asso-

ciation North 2 All-State team.The Riva era saw the Miller

girls’ soccer team post a 65-15-4composite record, make fourstraight trips to the Essex Countyfinal (sharing the 1999 crown withrival Montclair) and sharing orwinning outright three NorthernHills Conference division crowns.The Millers tied for the title intheir final season as member ofthe Northern Hills, Suburban Di-vision in 1999 and claimed the2000 and 2001 Northern Hills,Skyline Division crowns.

Now that the summer season isin full swing and fun in the waterwill be part of gatherings and va-cations nationwide, the AmericanRed Cross reminds families topractice water safety to ensure thateveryone stays healthy and safe inand around the water.

“Summer is a great time forchildren and parents to enjoy out-door activities especially swim-ming at the pool, beach or thelake,” said Laurie Stone, directorof health and safety at the Mill-burn-Short Hills Chapter. “Acci-dents can happen if we take a va-cation from safety. The good newsis that many water tragedies canbe prevented, so both parents andchildren need to remember somebasic rules of water safety.”

The American Red Cross urgesfamilies to remember the follow-ing safety tips when engaging inactivities in and around the water:

Learn to swim and swim well.The best thing anyone can do tostay safe in and around the wateris to learn to swim well. Everyone,including adults, should be super-vised. Adults should practice“reach supervision” or be with inarm’s length of a child in case anemergency occurs. The Millburntown pool offers swimminglessons for a fee. Contact the Mill-burn Recreation Department orthe pool for further information onthe availability of swim lesson.

Learn Red Cross CPR. All care-

givers, including grandparents,older siblings and babysittersshould know this lifesaving skill.

Outfit everyone with the propergear. Kids and adults who are notstrong swimmers or who appearto rely on inflatable toys for safetyshould use U.S. Coast Guard per-sonal flotation devices (PFD)whenever they are in or aroundthe water. Everyone, includingstrong swimmers, should use aU.S. Coast Guard approved PFDwhen boating. Everyone shouldhave the proper PFD for his or herweight and size. This informationis printed on the label as part ofthe Coast Guard stamp. Thislightweight plastic equipment

when used properly can help savelives.

Always keep basic lifesavingequipment by a residential pooland know how to use it. A first aidkit, cordless phone, phone listwith emergency contact informa-tion, reaching pole and ring buoywith a line attached are recom-mended. “Cordless phones allowyou to make that call to 911 if nec-essary, plus you aren’t called awayfor a ringing phone. First aid kitscontain plastic face shields, whichcan help prevent disease transmis-sion. Plastic ring buoys are easy tomaneuver so that even a child canuse one if the need arises to helpsave a life,” Ms. Stone said.

“These items coupled with a poolemergency action plan help every-one breathe a little easier.

Pack a “safety” bag for a day atthe beach or lake. Water proofsunscreen, SPF 15 or higher,water shoes to keep feet safe fromthe heat and objects on land and inthe water, and plenty of water aremust-haves. All containers shouldbe plastic to prevent injuries frombreaking glass. The properlypacked safety bag will help ensurethat everyone comes home safeand sound.

PROUD ARCHER—Russell Shernoff, son of Frank andMia Shernoff of 520 White Oak Ridge Road, displays thetrophy he won for placing third in the 10- to 12-year-oldage group June 21 at the New Jersey Junior OlympicOutdoor Archery Competition in Pitman. Russell, who willenter seventh grade at Millburn Middle School in Sep-tember, is the third-ranked archer in the National ArcheryAssociation’s New Jersey Bowman Division.

The New Jersey Coastal Her-itage Trail Route has received a$30,000 grant from the NationalPark Foundation’s Park FlightProgram, funded through a$500,000 commitment fromAmerican Airlines.

The trail, in partnership withNew Jersey Audubon’s Cape MayBird Observatory, Center for Re-search and Education, will use thegrant to study nocturnal songbirdmigrations in southern NewJersey using Doppler radar andsound recordings. This technolo-gy enables researchers to identifybird species and areas used forfeeding and roosting duringannual migrations between winterhomes in Central America andNorth American breedinggrounds. This information will beused to educate the public andensure adequate migrationstopover habitats are available insouthern New Jersey.

“We are thrilled to be one ofonly seven national park serviceunits in the entire country to be se-lected for one of the Park Flightgrant awards,” said Janet Wolf,trail route project director. “It is anhonor to be working in partner-ship with New Jersey Audubon onthis project. The research is veryimportant for the future of thesesongbirds. It will highlight waysthat landowners can provide nec-essary songbird habitats.”

The National Park Foundation(NPF) has awarded almost$200,000 in grants to seven pro-jects in 13 national parks acrossthe country through Park Flight, acoordinated effort between Amer-ican Airlines, the National ParkService (NPS), the National Fishand Wildlife Foundation (NFWF)and the University of Arizona.The program’s mission is to “pro-tect breeding, migration and win-

tering habitats for shared migrato-ry bird species and to increasepublic knowledge and under-standing of migratory birds andtheir habitats.”

“All 385 national parks aretruly learning laboratories,” saidJim Maddy, president of NPF.“Together with American Air-lines, the National Park Founda-tion is pleased to help the NewJersey Coastal Heritage TrailRoute protect and better under-stand its unique avian resourcesand to help ensure that thesebeautiful birds will be around forgenerations of visitors to enjoyand learn from.”

So why New Jersey? “New Jersey is at the conflu-

ence of the Atlantic, Hudson andDelaware Valley migration routes;it is a major thoroughfare formany species during northboundand southbound passage,” ex-plained David Mizrahi, vice presi-dent for research at New JerseyAudubon. “Migratory songbirdsmake a series of stops en route totheir seasonal destinations, andare vulnerable to alterations in thelandscape. If one of these stopoverhabitat areas is destroyed or de-graded, it may compromise abird’s ability to reach its goal. Itcan also affect nesting success andeventually population viability.

“New Jersey’s habitats are cru-cial to the survival of many mi-grating birds,” Dr. Mizrahi con-tinued. “Unfortunately, we do notknow enough about the habitatsthese birds use for resting andfeeding, which are most impor-

tant, or where they occur in NewJersey. More important, we do notknow how the distribution andabundance of suitable migrationstopover habitats are changingbecause of current developmentand land use practices.”

New Jersey Audubon Societywill develop presentations and ex-hibits about nocturnal migrationand the importance of preservingmigratory songbird habitats. Ex-hibits are planned for sites alongthe New Jersey Coastal HeritageTrail.

“The data gathered will providea foundation for building our edu-cation program,” said DaleRosselet, director of Educationfor New Jersey Audubon Society.“We hope to show New Jerseycitizens how they can be a part ofthis phenomenon by maintainingor enhancing habitats for the mi-grating birds, including their ownbackyards.

“Our efforts on behalf of mi-gratory songbirds will help ensuretheir survival and enhance ourown quality of life,” she contin-ued. “It is one more way that thecollective action of people in ourhemisphere can have a positiveeffect on the world around us.”

Park Flight supports the Na-tional Park Service in its avianconservation efforts by promotingthe mutual exchange of ideas andconservation expertise across in-ternational borders. As part of thePark Flight program, NFWF willissue grants to selected LatinAmerican parks and protectedareas.

ATLANTIC CITY

CASINO CONFIDENTIALBY TONY AUGUST

Special Advertising Feature

How can I ever forget it? I’m talking about my latest invitation tothe most spectacular official grand opening of any hotel/casino

in the gaming industry — and that includes Vegas — that I have everattended in this column’s 16-year existence.

This column has always put the general welfare of its readers firstin determining what events or promotions provide the best value fortheir bucks.Therefore, I’m telling you now, that at this point in time,the Mohegan Sun is the very best hotel/casino to visit in the gamingindustry throughout the world.

That statement is particularly remarkable when you consider thefact that on my way to the Sun last weekend, to cover the openingof their new and first hotel, my car broke down. I was stranded forhours on a narrow shoulder of I-95 as cars and trucks whizzed closeby at 80 miles an hour, threatening to overturn my car and maybe killme. If it wasn’t for some good Samaritan who came to my rescue, Imight still be dodging traffic.

Since this all happened late on Friday evening, I had to leave thecar ‘til Monday, when the mechanic could take a look at it, eventual-ly costing me more than $300 for repairs. Now, add to that the factthat a slight cold blossomed into a full-fledged respiratory infectionwhich made sleeping impossible for the entire weekend, and youcould readily conclude that I’m either some kind of masochist,or theupside of that weekend must have been sensational. I’mno masochist.

This is the second Mohegan Sun grand opening I’ve attended inthe past six months,and they’ve both been outstanding.The first waswhen they completed their billion-dollar “Project Sunburst.” Thatfour million-square-foot expansion included a retail and restaurantpromenade, 12 new dining options, more than 30 new shops, a10,000 seat arena, an additional 115,000 square feet of gaming spaceand a 300-seat cabaret.

I returned as their guest in their new 1,200 room luxury hotel,which includes 100,000 square feet of meeting and function space,the Northeast’s largest ballroom, a 22,300-square-foot world-classspa, a 10,000 square-foot indoor pool and deck, and a huge outdoorsun terrace.

They didn’t spare a penny in making this the most grandioseopening ever.They brought in Cher, and she packed 10,000 fanniesinto their new arena, all hoping to get a good look at hers throughthe maze and layers of Bob Mackie clothing designs, which ofcourse, she kept peeling away.

I had a front row seat for the Blues Brothers’ wild show, with DanAykroyd and Jim Belushi, which got even wilder when our ex-President showed up and plopped himself at the table not more than10 feet from where my son and I were sitting. It didn’t take longbefore he was coaxed on stage, and stayed there for at least 20 min-utes tooting on his sax. He wasn’t bad.

Later we went to a surprise private 50th birthday party forAykroyd,and celebrated along with Bill Murray,Chevy Chase,and therest of the old “Saturday Night” crowd, a host of rockers likeAerosmith’s Steven Tyler. One cute little svelte blond, shimmying andshaking it up, looked familiar and after a closer look, turned out to beRosanne Barr.

The next night, we did it all over again at the same places, onlythis time, for performers Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin and RosieO’Donnell, whose idea of humor depends on the most demeaningwords in any language.Throw in a gala formal sit-down dinner and acouple of very VIP cocktail parties, all done with style and panache,and you might be able to understand why I still managed to have aball in spite of my problems.

The Mohegan Sun, thanks to council chairman Mark Brown, COOBill Velardo,and the creative Mitch Etess,VP of marketing, is alive andvibrant,beautiful and exciting.All together, its components representthe ideal role model for all future hotel/casinos.A fair shake and sin-cere respect from management for its patrons and players, amid ayear-round resort atmosphere of fun and games for the whole family—that’s the ticket.

Trust me on this one. Get to Mohegan Sun just once, and you’llunderstand why rain or shine, win or lose, you’ll never forget youwere there.

Atlantic City, beware: you’ve got mail!

Project GRO now holdingnine-week training session

Trail route receives $300,000 national grant According to the 1990

census, the population ofMillburn Township is 18,630.

In 87 of the surveys, parentsmade additional comments. Whilethe special services departmentwas praised for its high qualitystaff, some respondents expressedconcern about issues such as cer-tain general education teachers notfollowing IEPs, discrepancies be-tween different schools regardinginclusion and a need for moreparental interaction with the de-partment.

“Based on my experiencethroughout the state, I know wehave a strong program,” saidRenay Zamloot, who was amember of the assessment Steer-ing Committee. Ms. Zamloot, alsoco-president of the Special Educa-tion Committee, nonethelessmaintains the district muststrengthen its inclusion program aswell as the child study teamprocess. Increased staff trainingshould be a priority, she said.

Increased internal trainingamong staff indeed will be a prior-ity in September, Dr. Ashley said.He added more joint planning alsois necessary to address complaintsthat better coordination and sched-uling of special ed services isneeded so students do not missgeneral education subjects, hesaid.

During the 2002-03 school year,the state will begin phase two ofthe assessment program by send-ing a team of auditors to speakagain with parents and verify in-formation in this year’s report bygoing through department recordson site. The third year of the pro-gram entails the jointly monitoredimplementation of recommenda-tions.

“Some dread this, we welcomethis,” Dr. Ashley said. “Certainlywe’re at a very high point in termsof what is happening throughoutthe state.”

During the past year, the litiga-tion between parents and theschool district dropped to just onecase which was settled for$11,000. At the same time, rev-enues from tuitions for studentscoming to the district for specialeducation programs “is into the sixfigures,” according to Dr. Ashley.

“Our goal is to do what’s rightand do it efficiently,” he said.

Although he initially estimatedthe cost of the study to run$50,000, he said it is running farbelow that and credits his staffwith hard work, keeping overtimetime costs down.

To defray the costs, the state isexpected to chip in $5,000.

“That’s disgraceful,” Dr. Ashleysaid.

A speedier “hands-off” transi-tion from chest compressions toshocking with an automated ex-ternal defibrillator (AED) maymean more people survive car-diac arrest, according to a reportin Circulation: Journal of theAmerican Heart Association.The time it takes for an AED toanalyze a cardiac arrest victim’selectrocardiogram, charge anddeliver a shock is called the“hands-off” interval becausecardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) chest compressions muststop then.

Researchers found indicationsthat the shorter the time betweenstopping chest compressions andwhen a shock is delivered, thebetter a person’s chance of sur-viving ventricular fibrillation.Ventricular fibrillation is thechaotic heart rhythm that causes

cardiac arrest and sudden car-diac death.

According to the AmericanHeart Association, about250,000 people annually diefrom sudden death caused bysudden cardiac arrest withoutbeing hospitalized. That’s abouthalf of all deaths from coronaryheart disease—more than 680Americans each day. The Amer-ican Heart Association statesthat the national survival ratefrom cardiac arrest is only about5 to 8 percent. Very few victimsof cardiac arrest survive after 10minutes.

“Our study suggests that notonly do you need to act quicklyto get an AED on the scene of acardiac arrest, but you alsoshould move as quickly as possi-ble from CPR to defibrillation,”said study author Dr. Trygve

Eftestol, an associate professorat Stavanger University College,Stavanger, Norway.

To determine the link betweenthe hands-off interval and sur-vival, researchers studied 634hands-off intervals in 156 pa-tients with ventricular fibrillationin which AEDs were used for re-suscitation attempts. The dura-tion of hands-off intervals variedby a median of 20 seconds. Re-searchers grouped cardiac arrestvictims according to their initialprobability (high, medium orlow) of return of spontaneouscirculation (ROSC), which wasestimated from the starting pointof the ECG readings of theirhands-off intervals.

These ECG readings show aperson’s cardiac activity fromthe beginning of the hands-offinterval—when chest compres-sions are stopped—until deliv-ery of a shock. During this inter-val, the AED analyzes the heartrhythm and determines if ashock is needed, charges to theproper shock dose, and promptsthe rescuer to deliver a shock.The probability of successful de-fibrillation with return to sponta-neous circulation was also esti-mated at five, 10, 15 and 20 sec-onds into each of the hands-offintervals.

Researchers compared the cal-culated probabilities with the

actual rates of ROSC for themedium-level and high-levelgroups. From this comparisonthey found that the shorter thehands-off interval, the greaterthe chance of a cardiac arrestvictim regaining spontaneouscirculation.

People with the highest initialchance of ROSC would have re-ceived the most benefit from ashorter hands-off interval; ifthey had received a shock imme-diately, they might have had aROSC rate as high as 50 percent,says Dr. Eftestol.

Within five seconds, their esti-mated ROSC rate dropped to 25percent; after 15 seconds to 15percent; and after 20 seconds, itwas 8 percent. For those with amedium initial probability ofROSC, shock delivery after afive-second hands-off period re-sulted in ROSC in 24 percent;after 15 seconds, 17 percent; andat 20 seconds it was 11 percent.Finally, the group with thelowest probability of ROSC hadonly about a 5 percent estimatedchance of ROSC throughout theintervals.

“This study is extremely im-portant for several reasons,” saysMary-Fran Hazinski, R.N.,M.S.N., former chairman of theAmerican Heart Association’semergency cardiovascular carecommittee. “First, it reaffirms

the importance of CPR trainingand the important role of CPRwith the use of AEDs.

“Second, it provides verysolid data that supports the needto shorten the time required forAED rhythm analysis and charg-ing. AED manufacturers are al-ready working to shorten thishands-off interval. Finally, itemphasizes the need for CPR-AED rescuers to practice theirskills to ensure the most efficienttime to shock delivery—secondssaved can mean improved sur-vival.”

Co-authors include Dr. KjetilSunde and Dr. Petter AndreasSteen.

Speedier AED-CPR transition may save lives, study says

A new booklet may help thosein need to pay their energy bills.

The Financial Assistance Net-work in Washington, D.C. haspublished the booklet, “How ToGet Government Help To PayYour Energy Bills,” which givesinformation on how and whereto get government help to payenergy bills.

“The federal government hasbudgeted over $1 billion to helppeople struggling to pay their(energy) bills. Many people donot know that this money isavailable or how to get it,”stated Edmund Billings, a re-searcher at the network. “We’vepublished a booklet that ex-plains the program and tellsconsumers where to apply for

assistance in their area. Thebooklet also has a special sec-tion for homeowners to get up to$25,000 of government moneyto help reduce their energy bills,even if they have no equity intheir home.”

Consumers can receive a copyby sending $5 to cover the costof printing, postage and han-dling to: Financial AssistanceNetwork, Government Help ForEnergy Bills Dept GHEB-1208,P. O. Box 60848, Washington,D.C. 20039-0848.

Consumers can also obtaininformation by calling (202)595-1027 or by visiting Finan-cial Assistance Network Inter-net Web site: www.FinancialAssistanceNetwork.org.

The one- to five-mile eventwill begin at Millburn TownHall at 9:30 a.m. with registra-tion beginning at 8:30 a.m. Allproceeds will support CancerCare’s programs and services inEssex, Morris and Union coun-ties.

WalkNJ is a fund-raiser fea-turing music, food, entertain-ment, prizes and fun for walkersof all ages.

Pre-registration for WalkNJ

walkers is available by calling(800) 813-4673, extension 120,or by visiting the WalkNJ Website at www.walknj.org. WalkNJis also being held in West Wind-sor on Sept. 19 and Ridgewoodon Sept. 22.

Cancer Care is a non-profitorganization whose mission isto help people with cancer andtheir families, and helps patientsof all ages and at all stages of ill-ness. Through professional one-on-one counseling, supportgroups, educational programs andtelephone contact, Cancer Careprovides guidance, informationand referrals to those in need.

The New Jersey General As-sembly gave its approval June 27to legislation sponsored by As-semblyman Thomas H. Kean, Jr.( R-21) that would encourage theremediation of contaminatedsites for residential development.The measure, which amends theBrownfield and ContaminatedSite Remediation Act, wouldoffer additional incentives to de-velopers to build new residencesat the site of a redevelopmentproject. The legislation passedthe Assembly, 80-0.

“New Jersey has in place avery successful brownfield rede-velopment program, but there are

still many contaminated sitesthat could be put to good use.This initiative will improve theeffectiveness and impact of thestate’s existing brownfield lawby increasing the incentives forresidential development, whichis both aesthetically and eco-nomically beneficial for a com-munity,” said Mr. Kean.

Currently, the State may enterinto agreements to reimburse de-velopers for as much as 75 per-cent of the costs of remediationfrom revenues derived from newstate taxes generated from the re-development of a contaminatedsite. Under A-2437, the list of tax

revenues that may be consideredin estimating the amount of newrevenue is expanded. For exam-ple, sales tax collected from thepurchase of materials used forthe residential construction at thesite of a redevelopment projectcould be considered.

“This legislation recognizesthat the cost associated withrestoring a property for residen-tial development is high andtherefore, enhanced incentivesfor restoration are needed,” saidMr. Kean.

The bill would authorize thestate to enter into a redevelop-ment agreement to reimburse a

developer of residential propertyupon the completion of construc-tion of one or more new resi-dences.

“Bringing redevelopment toneglected sites offers valuablereal estate opportunities in astate where the demand forhomes is very high. Equally im-portant, it encourages smartgrowth in New Jersey communi-ties. Unused, neglected proper-ties can be transformed intoviable residential sites withoutnew land being consumed ormunicipal infrastructures beingfurther burdened,” concludedMr. Kean.

Juveniles with histories ofweapons or explosive device re-lated offenses would be ineligi-ble to obtain firearms purchaseridentification cards or permits topurchase handguns under legis-lation approved by the NewJersey State Senate on June 20.

Sponsored by state Sen.Richard H. Bagger (R-21), themeasure, S160, would close aloophole in the handgun permitlaw, which currently allows cer-tain juveniles who have commit-ted violent crimes to purchasehandguns.

“The state’s handgun permitlaw currently blocks juvenileswho have committed gun relatedoffenses from purchasing hand-guns,” said Mr. Bagger. “Thislegislation would ensure that ju-veniles who have committed of-fenses with other weapons, in-cluding explosive and destruc-

tive devices, would also be ineli-gible to purchase handguns.”

Under current law, a person isdisqualified from ever obtaininga firearms purchaser identifica-tion card or a permit to purchasea handgun if, as a juvenile, thatperson was adjudicated delin-quent for an offense which, ifcommitted by an adult, wouldconstitute a crime and that of-fense involved the unlawful useor possession of a firearm.

This legislation would expandthe scope of the disqualifying of-fenses, to include any offense in-volving the use of weapons, ex-plosives, or destructive devices.

“I think it’s clear that childrenhave access to more informationthan ever before—informationthey are using to aid in commit-ting violent and horrendouscrimes,” said Mr. Bagger. “Wehave seen a number of incidents

across the nation in which youngpeople have constructed home-made bombs and devices, whichwere designed solely to causeinjury and destroy property. Inmany instances, the use of thosedevices has resulted in tragedy.”

Mr. Bagger noted the measurewas designed to help protect thepublic from young people with ahistory of anti-social behavior.

“We shouldn’t provide juve-niles who have downloadedplans and built bombs with hand-gun permits as a reward for whatthey think is ingenuity,” addedMr. Bagger. “They are exactlythe type of individuals whoshould not be selling or owninghandguns in New Jersey.”

“With the popularity of cellphones at an all time high, thisbrochure makes drivers aware ofrecent studies on how intellectualactivities—such as talking on aphone—distract drivers,” saidPam Fischer, assistant vice presi-dent of public affairs for the AAANew Jersey Automobile Club inFlorham Park. “It also offerssafety tips for cell phone use,” Ms.Fischer said.

The brochure also addresses theissues of hands-free cell phones.

“Drivers who use hands-freephones are no safer than thosewho use hand-held phones,” Ms.Fischer said. “The major distrac-tion associated with mobilephones is intellectual—the con-versation—so drivers are similarlydistracted when using either ahand-held or hands-free phone.”

As part of AAA’s ongoing effortto improve traveler safety, the freebrochure provides the followingcommon sense tips about cellphone use:

Recognize that driving requires

your full attention.Use your cell phone only if it’s

an absolute necessity.If you have to use your phone,

pick a safe time and place to do so.Keep conversations short and

sweet.Before you get behind the

wheel, familiarize yourself withthe features of your cell phone.

Ask a passenger in the car toplace the call for you.

Hang up the phone as soon aspossible, especially in heavy traf-fic or hazardous weather condi-tions.

Secure your phone in the car sothat it doesn’t become a projectilein a crash.

“Safe driving requires you tostay focused on the road in frontof you and the cars around you,”Ms. Fischer said. “If you must useyour cell phone wile driving, keepit short so that you can give yourundivided attention to your firstpriority, driving.”

Marking the end of a six-yeareffort to convert 80 percent of the300-acre Hilltop property into anew county park, Essex CountyExecutive James Treffinger hosteda dedication ceremony May 22 forthe newly created Hilltop Reser-vation.

The 240-acre wooded reserva-tion, which borders the municipal-ities of Caldwell, Cedar Grove,North Caldwell and Verona, isnow officially open to the public,becoming a part of Essex

County’s historic parks system,which is the nation’s oldest. Thecreation of this new parklandguarantees that the land will beprotected as green open space inperpetuity.

“It isn’t every day electedpublic servants get to stand in themidst of hundreds of acres of landonce used for government purpos-es, in the middle of one of thestate’s most urbanized counties,and officiate over that land’s trans-formation from government use

into parkland for our citizens sothey and their children and theirgreat-grandchildren, can enjoy itforever,” Mr. Treffinger said at theceremony.

“To stand here and dedicate thisbeautiful new reservation to thepublic, a reservation which saves80 percent of the 300-acre Hilltop,and to do so without one pennycost to our taxpayers, is one of themost gratifying days of my eightyears as county executive.”

The plans for the Hilltop Reser-vation were set in motion by Mr.Treffinger upon his taking officein 1995.

“We proved many naysayerswrong about our vision for thisland. In the end, our plan will havepaid down inherited county debt,permanently secured preciousopen space for future generations,replaced dilapidated county build-ings, and make a nearly $35 mil-lion profit for the taxpayers. Froma dream to a drawing board to ul-timate fruition, the Hilltop projectrepresents a win-win situation ifthere ever was one,” said Mr. Tre-ffinger.

The new reservation willbecome the fifth largest park in theEssex County park system, de-signed by architect Frederick LawOlmstead. It is the first new addi-tion to the system since 1988,when acreage was added to WestEssex park.

Each year an estimated 284,000distracted drivers are involved inserious crashes, according to astudy by the University of NorthCarolina Highway Traffic SafetyResearch Center funded by theAAA Foundation for TrafficSafety.

“We found that 15 percent ofdrivers in the study were notpaying attention and just over halfof these (8.3 percent) were dis-tracted by something inside oroutside the vehicle,” said Dr. JaneStutts, manager of epidemiologi-cal studies at the UNC center andauthor of the study.

The study found that driverswere most often distracted bysomething outside their vehicle(29.5 percent) followed by adjust-ing a radio or CD player (11.4 per-cent). Other specific distractionsincluded talking with other occu-pants (10.9 percent), adjusting ve-hicle or climate controls (2.8 per-cent), eating or drinking (1.7 per-cent), cell phone use (1.5 percent)and smoking (0.9 percent).

“Different age groups appear tobe distracted by different things,”Dr. Stutts said.

Drivers under 20 were especial-ly likely to be distracted by tuningthe radio or changing CDs whileyoung adults (ages 20 to 39)seemed to be more distracted byother passengers. Drivers over 65were most distracted by objects orevents happening outside the vehi-cle. Most of the distracted driverswere male (63 percent), in part be-cause as a group males drive morethan females and are more likelyto be involved in serious crashes.

Reseachers used the NationalHighway Traffic Safety Adminis-tration’s Crashworthiness DataSystem (CDS) for the study.

The CDS examines a sample ofapproximately 5,000 crashes ayear in which at least one vehiclewas damaged enough to require

towing. Federal investigators col-lect detailed information abouteach crash, including examinationof the vehicle and crash scene, andinterviews with drivers and wit-nesses. The UNC center’s studyused data from 1995 through 1999and included 32,303 vehicles. It isimportant to note that the CDSanalysis for this study was “vehi-cle-based” rather than “crash-based” and thus almost certainlyunderstates the role of driver dis-traction in crashes.

The study confirms AAA’s con-cerns about the potential dangersof cell phone use while driving.Although the percentage of crash-es involving distracted driverswho were using cell phones wasrelatively low (1.5 percent), thedanger of cell phone use whiledriving is still very real.

“Using a hand-held cell phonewhile on the road comprisessafety,” said Pam Fischer, assistantvice president of public affairs forthe AAA New Jersey AutomobileClub in Florham Park. “However,drivers using hands-free phonesare no safer. The major distrac-tions associated with mobilephones is intellectual—the con-versation—so drivers are similarlydistracted when using either ahand-held or hands-free phone.”

Ms. Fischer also pointed outthat the UNC report confirms thefindings of other recent studiesabout driver distraction.

“Intellectual activities distractdrivers so much that their abilityto drive safely and maintain con-trol over the vehicle is reduced,”Ms. Fischer said. “The bottomline is that banning hand-heldphones, but allowing hands-freephones will have little or no effecton passenger and driver safety.However, even banning hands-free cell phones won’t affect otherdistractions in the car, which aremore of a problem for drivers.”

agreed where personnel mattersare involved, confidentialitymust be maintained. Ms. Wolfe,whose employment was termi-nated June 13, has said she al-leged wrongdoing on the part ofPat Holden, the DMDA’s execu-tive director, to members of theorganization’s executive boardand to its president, StevenSuskauer. Ms. Wolfe’s termina-tion and the internal investiga-

tion are being treated as person-nel issues by the DMDA.

According to Ms. Holden, theorganization’s executive com-mittee has stated it will present acomprehensive report to itsboard of directors at a meetingscheduled for July 18. Propertyowners in the special improve-ment district (SID), who fund theDMDA through special assess-ments, will receive the reportafter it is presented to the board,Ms. Holden said.

“I look at it as a personnelmatter,” Mr. McDermott said.“They (the DMDA) do their ownhiring and firing. All we do isgive them the right to collect themoney.

“We have to give them an op-portunity to investigate. I havenot received a single complaintor accusation of mismanage-ment. Like any group, they needto police themselves. We have nocontrol over them. It’s a person-nel matter. If there is proof ofmismanagement of funds, wewill look into it, I’d imagine. Ifit’s true, it will come out.”

The DMDA is approaching its11th year of existence, Mr.Gordon said. It was set up insuch a way that it does not havetaxing powers in and of itself. “Ithas no means to collect funds ifthe town doesn’t become in-volved,” he explained.

Other than the tax collection

and disbursement aspects, the re-lationship of the township to theDMDA extends to joint projectsor activities that support thegoals of the organization, such asthe renovation of the Courtyard.

“The town helps some of theprojects come about throughgrants it receives. Otherwise, ourinterest is fiduciary. We approvethe DMDA budget and send outbills to the SID members.”

The DMDA submits anannual budget to the TownshipCommittee in a process similarto the municipal budget process.After the budget is introduced,the public is given notice, hear-ings are held and the TownshipCommittee votes on the assess-ment.

“There is a 28 day period fromthe time the budget is introducedto the hearing on the budget andinput,” Mr. Gordon said. “An as-sessment is then imposed onproperty owners in the specialimprovement district.”

It’s all based on a formula thatinvolves dividing the squarefootage of the property by thetotal amount of the budget thathas to be collected. Once the as-sessment and the budget are ap-proved, Mr. Gordon said, the taxcollector bills the SID propertyowners.

The assessments are collectedand paid to the DMDA on aquarterly basis, he confirmed.

“jump into the water” and line upthe depth finders, according tothe battalion chief. The policesergeant also portrayed a“victim,” enabling the firefight-ers to practice their water rescuetraining. They used throw bagsand inflatable hoses to re-enact a“rescue.”

“We wanted to find the depthsof both ponds should someonefall in through ice, for instance,”Battalion Chief Pressl said. “TheMillburn Fire Department ischarged with water and icerescue. This drill gave us a betterfeel for what the guys might getinto.”

The drill was conducted withthe permission of the Short HillsClub for the South Pond and theresidents belonging to the NorthPond Association. The partici-pants operated from Forest andLake Shore drives to gain access

to South Pond and from LakeRoad for North Pond.

“Apparently StewartHartshorn operated a quarry atSouth Pond many years ago,”Battalion Chief Pressl said. “Hedredged North Pond to get clayfor bricks.”

Maps of each pond, includingtheir depths, eventually will bemade available to the membersof the fire department and to thesurrounding property owners aswell as the Millburn-Short HillsHistorical Society, the firefightersaid.

“No one knew what we wouldfind,” he commented.

Monday he’ll have an opportu-nity to learn even more about thetwo sites. The state police are ex-pected to come to town to con-duct an underwater videotapingof the ponds, Battalion ChiefPressl said. They will conduct acomputer reading and provide aprintout of the terrain at thebottom of the ponds, which willbe given to the local authorities.

power will be utilized in writing,printing and media centers set upthroughout the district and will bemade available to meet the needsof the special services department.

“They’re still good for wordprocessing, but you can’t expect touse them for multi-media purpos-es,” Mr. Rossilli said. The estab-lishment of an obsolescence planfor his department was a vital partof the three-year plan to imple-ment technological changes in thedistrict.

The Apple lease purchase willbring the next generation of morepowerful G-4 computers, the neweMac, to the new computer lab in

the library at the middle school.The $40,350 cost of the comput-ers is nearly $10,000 under theamount originally budgeted toequip the lab.

The remaining iBooks will bedistributed to staff throughout themiddle and high schools with aspecial emphasis on placing com-puters in common areas for facul-ty.

“If we’re asking teachers toreally use technology, we have tosupply them with the tools,” Mr.Rossilli said. In addition to thetools, he acknowledged, there is apressing need for staff develop-ment.

“This year, we’re concentratingon training,” he said.

The board this spring supportedhis recommendation to tap com-

puter teacher Liz Bagish for thenew post of technology trainer.Ms. Bagish will work district-wide with teachers in groups orindividually to help them betterutilize the new technology.

Mr. Rossilli, who claims his ul-timate goal is to establish technol-ogy “pervasively” through cur-riculum delivery, is enthusiasticabout the recent acquisitions.

The district made little forwardmovement on the technology frontfor five years, he said, but lastyear, the district developed thefastest computer network in thestate. In another year, he expectsto have the hardware in place totake advantage of that network.

“We need to put technologywhere the kids are learning,” hesaid. “We’re making it work.”

come out of their holes during theday looking for water. If pedestri-ans dispose of food properly andnot drop food on the ground, hemaintained the new measuresshould control the situation.

Cary Heller, owner of TheCourtyard building, is not sosure. He said his own buildinghouses two restaurants and acoffee shop, but he has experi-enced no pest problems in hisbasement.

“My concern is there is someunderground nest,” he said, spec-ulating the rodents are living inthe storm sewers under theCourtyard itself and under the ad-jacent municipal parking lot.

“I don’t know if renovationsare going to cure the problem,”Mr. Heller said.

A number of businesses, in-cluding restaurants, dispose oftheir trash in a dumpster ownedby Charlie Brown’s. The contain-er often smells of spoiled foodand seepage.

The Item was unable to con-tact Ray Chmiel, director ofdesign and construction for therestaurant, but Phil Kehoe, thetownship’s building inspector,said the restaurant is respondingto township concerns regardingits dumpster. Mr. Kehoe said the

restaurant’s plans to overhaul itsgarbage disposal system havebeen approved by the munici-pality and work on the new fa-cility is scheduled to beginMonday.

The new unit, according to Mr.Kehoe, will be totally enclosedwith grease traps to containliquid waste within the restau-rant’s sewer lines.

After the overhaul of thegarbage disposal area is complet-ed, Mr. Kehoe said the restaurantagrees to pay for cleaning thestorm sewers under the Court-yard and parking areas.

In the meantime, townshipplans for the Courtyard’s renova-tion continue to be refined.

Timothy Gordon, townshipbusiness administrator, said workon the area was delayed wheninitial bids for the project exceed-ed the available funding for theproject.

At a meeting of the TownshipCommittee in March, architectJan Saltiel Rafel of the townshipfirm Edgewater Design, who hasdrawn up the plans for the Court-yard’s facelift, estimated demoli-tion and renovation of the spacecarried a price tag of $175,000.During the same meeting, theCommittee authorized $100,000in funding for the project, withthe balance to be raised throughlocal businesses and neighbor-hood associations.

Carrie Lemerman, executivedirector of the Millburn-ShortHills Chamber of Commerce,said $16,000 has been raised orpledged for the project, including$2,500 from the sale of Chamberof Commerce baseball caps.

She added $600 will go tobusinesses along MillburnAvenue in Short Hills to buy 10planters.

Ms. Lemerman said the delaymay work out for the best. Alarge portion of the cost is slatedfor contingency plans and land-scaping, she explained, and be-cause of drought conditions thispast spring, it is doubtful exten-sive landscape work could havebeen finished and properly ser-viced.

“I’m still hoping to begin in thefall,” Ms. Lemerman said. Shesuggested fund-raising mightcontinue with landscaping paidfor and added next spring.

Ms. Saltiel Rafel is also hopingfor a fall start to the project. Heroriginal plans remain unchanged.

“Nobody’s asked me to changeanything,” she said.

“We’ve got our pencils sharp-ened to get the costs down,” Mr.Gordon said. He hopes to seemore donation money con-tributed to the pot and said hewill be meeting with a smallgroup of involved parties July 15to determine what step the mu-nicipality will take next.

the Millburn Free Public Library,the Guy R. Bosworth AmericanLegion Post 140 on Main Street,Taylor Park and the MillburnHigh School auditorium.

Other memorial spots includethe front of Town Hall, a Revolu-tionary War Cemetery on thecorner of Parsonage Hill andWhite Oak Ridge roads, and aplaque on the Vauxhall bridge re-membering the Battle of Spring-field.

“The veteran recognitiongroup has made a photo invento-ry of veterans’ monuments inMillburn,” Ms. Seelbach said.“There were many more thanmany of us suspected.”

In light of the inventory, thegroup “was inspired” to breakdown into smaller focus groups.One will focus on cemeteries,Ms. Seelbach said, and anotherwill look at the inventoried mate-rial as a way to promote aware-ness of history through theschools and other events.

Parsil Cemetery, the one onParsonage Hill and White OakRidge roads, has piqued thegroup’s interest. Preliminary re-search done by Jennifer Nichols,a member of the Millburn-ShortHills Historical Society, cites thespot as a 223-year-old burialground for members of the Parsilfamily.

On site there are graves forCapt. Thomas Parsil, who diedJuly 4, 1778, and NicholasParsil, both listed as “casualtiesof Revolutionary battles 1778-1780.” It also marked the finalresting place for Civil War veter-ans and other members of theParsil family.

Ms. Nichols’ research showsthe land was deeded to the EssexCounty Board of Chosen Free-holders upon Samuel Parsil’sdeath in 1918. The Parsil namehas also been listed as Parcel andParcell on cemetery headstones.

Also documented among Sgt.Eakley’s photographs are gravesat St. Stephen’s Cemetery, whichdate back to the Civil War.

The recognition group has notyet determined the extent towhich the cemeteries would berestored. Ms. Seelbach said thegroup would examine costs,available grants as well as whattype of permission is requiredbefore proceeding with anyaction.

Ms. Nichols, who noted her re-search marked only preliminaryefforts, suggested small steps tospruce up the area, rather than amajor renovation effort.

The historical awarenessgroup is also still forming ideas,Ms. Seelbach said. Aside frompromoting the township’s historyin schools and through commu-nity events, the group is alsoconsidering compiling abrochure of historical sites.

Members of the group werefirst attracted to the idea of veter-an recognition through projectsundertaken in nearby Livingstonand Madison, Ms. Seelbach said.They thought it would be appro-priate to consider a similar pro-ject here in town.

“That was our start, and wehave met to get direction andrefine the information we had,”Ms. Seelbach said. “At this point,with our inventory and report,there is more of a focus of whatwe are doing without having anyset deadlines.”
