Holiday cheer: Teacher's gooddeed is rewarded by students•yuDTHE RECORD-PRESS

After performing a good deed of his own, a religionteacher at Mount Saint Mary's Academy was the recip-ient of a random act of kindness.

Popular religion teacherColin Pettorsson recently leda group of students from theWatchung school into NewYork City to distribute cloth-ing to the homeless. Eachyear, the school collects coatsand warm clothes for the

ture and decided to repay him for his selfless act. Thegroup told the story to other students, chronicling whatthey'd witnessed, and Porpora spearheaded a drive tocollect $2 donations to purchase a new coat forPettorsson.

She addressed all four homerooms shortly after thetrip to the city and wasnearly overwhelmed by theresponse her request engen-

needy at the onset of the coldest months of the year.During the trip to the city, all the clothing the stu-

dents collected had been given away when the groupwas approached by a man without a coat. Without hes-itating, Pettorsson gave the man his own coat, an actthat had a profound impact on his students.

According to Julia Porpora, one of Pettorsson'spupils, the students were touched by their teacher's ges-

"We had such greatrespect for him and what hedid," said Porpora, who livesin Westneld. "All we asked

for was $2, but some of the girls gave us $10 bills."With the cash in hand, Porpora enlisted the assis-

tance of her mother to shop for the right coat. The giftwas recently presented to a surprised Fettorsson.

Porpora said the Mount Saint Mary's teacher is apositive role model, and "not your typical teacher."

"He is so down to earth, and he inspired all of us," shesaid. "I think he's everyone's favorite teacher"

Residents come out to oppose Cooper Rd. projectTHE RECORD PRESS

SCOTCH PLAINS — A devel-oper's proposal to construct ahouse on an unusual strip of landon Cooper Road has drawn the ireof nearby residents.

At a Board of Adjustmentmeeting last week, about 30 resi-dents flooded into the municipalbuilding to state their oppositionto Mark Lustbader's plan to con-struct a two-story, single-familyhome at 1300 Cooper Rd.

If Lustbader's project obtains avariance from the board, the newhouse would be built on the east-ern portion of an island of land inthe center of Cooper Road, locatedbetween the busy street's inter-

sections with Heather Lane andWellington Downs.

The building plan conforms tothe township's land use ordinancein most respects; however, from aperspective of lot area, the pro-posed new lot is about 660 squarefeet shy of the zone's requirementof 40,000 square feet.

The property is currentlyowned by AT&T and abuts town-ship-owned property to the west,where a municipal storm sewercurrently exists. Lustbaderunsuccessfully attempted to pur-chase a 660-square foot portion ofthe township property to bringthe lot into conformity with zon-ing requirements.

A single-story brick buildingwould be demolished to make

room for the new structure.Residents opposed to the proj-

ect say construction of a house onthe property would decrease theoverall safety of the neighbor-hood. According to Don Cardiff,who lives nearby and has organ-ized considerable opposition tothe building plan, neighborhoodchildren would be placed atgreater risk if the board approvesLustbader's project.

"We already have cars bounc-ing off the guard rails 10 to 12times per year," he said.

According to a memo submit-ted by Police Chief Mark Zyla aspart of the application, the pro-posed driveway would pose a dan-ger because of a "limited view."The memo suggests if the develop-

ment is approved, the townshipwould be required to post warningsigns on both the eastbound andwestbound portions of CooperRoad that surround the strip ofland.

The memo also recommendsthat construction equipment belimited to the eastbound lanebetween the split and WellingtonDowns.

Cardiff said he expects theranks of project opponents toswell to 50 residents by the timethe project is heard by the Boardof Adjustment in January.

Wandering minds? Students can 'play attention'THE RECORD-PRESS

SCOTCH PLAINS — Theschool district will be participat-ing in a promising but experi-mental program designed toimprove attention spans in chil-dren.

A pilot program called PlayAttention, which was approvedby the Board of Education lastmonth, will be introduced at all

five elementary schools in thedistrict shortly. Eight studentsfrom each school have been ran-domly chosen to participate inthe program.

Though the system was creat-ed using space-age technology, tothe passive observer it looksmore like the product of a child'simagination. The Play Attentionsystem appears to consist of abike helmet attached by wire to alaptop computer.

Brunner princtpat Jodl Frank shows off the Play Attention hard-ware.

The sensor-lined helmet moni-tors brainwaves and sends themto a small interface system thatattaches to the computer. Usersparticipate in a series of videogame-like programs that sendcontinuous feedback to the com-puter. Students become aware ofthe intensity and relative successof their focus as they participatein each exercise.

The programs train the mindto focus, while at the same timetracking student progress,according to Brunner principalJodi Frank, who is spearhendingthe program.

"(Program creator) PeterFreer says that over time thiswill become part of what yourbrain does, and you will moreeasily be able to pay attention,"Frank said. "Everyone is verythrilled and excited" to be partic-ipating, she said.

Part of the impetus for PlayAttention came fromSuperintendent Carol Choye,who volunteered the school dis-trict to participate in the pilotstudy. The results will be ana-lyzed by researchers at DukeUniversity.

To determine whether the sys-tem ia effective, prospective stu-dents will be tested at the outseton the Conners scale, whichmeasures inattentiveness, hyper-activity, and cognitive and socialproblems. In the summer, when

the program is complete, the par-ticipants will be assessed again.

"We don't have any otherobjective way of determining if(the program) has been success-ful," Frank said.

The program is designed tohelp students increase their abil-ity to sustain attention andlengthen the time they are ableto spend on a task. Another com-ponent is visual tracking; inpractical terms, this means stu-dents will acquire the ability tofocus attention on a moving tar-get, such as a teacher lecturingbefore a classroom.

An additional objectiveinvolves short-term memorysequencing, which means beingable to remember the sequenceand detail of a series of com-mands. And a final goal is dis-criminatory processing — effec-tively, the ability to focus on onesubject when other distractionsare present.

As they engage in the exercis-es, students arc made aware oftheir progress. In many cases,the game will not progress fromone level to the next until a stu-dent achieves a targeted level offocus.

Students will begin the pro-gram trying to concentrate forjust a few seconds for each inter-val. But over time, they could

THE RECORD-PRESS

WESTFIELD - Downtownshoppers should receive a gift oftheir own from the communitythis holiday season, according tothe Downtown WestfieldCorporation (DWC).

At its regular meeting lastweek, the organization brieflyrevisited its annual request tobring back free downtown park-ing during the entire month ofDecember. Bagging the meters,said Executive Director SherryCronin, would go a long waytoward soothing the animositymany residents developed dur-ing the course of the town's bit-ter debate over redevelopment.

"In light of all the problemswe've had over parking, it makesa lot of sense for the town to giveback to the community," Croninsaid. "I think it would be a greatopportunity to restore somegoodwill.11

Cronin said free parking hasbeen available downtown in pastyears, and noted that nearbycommunities like Cranford andSummit suspend meter enforce-ment to entice downtown shop-pers.

"The experience of shoppingin the downtown begins andends with parking," Cronin said."I think it would be a nice thingto do — people notice it."

She suggested the town issue"courtesy tickets" on vehicles toeducate motorists aboutV/estfield's parking regulationsand time limits.

The request was submitted tothe town's Public Safety,Transportation, and Parkingsubcommittee at the beginningof the year, but the body has yetto approve it. Chairman RafaelBctancourt said the committeeplanned to discuss the matter ata meeting on Tuesday, afterpress time.

Hearing underway on Cushing Rd. project•yMUDTHE RECORD-PRESS

SCOTCH PLAINS — After several hoursof professional and public testimony beforethe Planning Board Monday night, an appli-cation for a major subdivision wasiidjourned until next month.

Developer Joseph Buontempo proposes tosubdivide four lots into seven on the town-ship's south side, in the vicinity of CushingRoad. The project would be constructed in awooded area that is less densely developedthan most neighborhoods on the north side.

Four single-family residences currentlystand in the area slated for subdivision. Ifthe project is approved, the developer woulddemolish two homes that front on CushingRoad and would allow two existing homesfronting Terrill Road to remain. Five newsingle-family homes would be constructedon the newly-created lots.

All proposed lots conform to the town-ship's land use ordinance and require novariances for approval. The new homeswould stand at about two and a half storiestall and would be built on lots rangingbetween roughly 40,000 square feet and72,000 square feet.

The developer plans to provide access tothe interior lots by constructing n 400-tbot-long cul-de-sac into the property fromCushing Road. Though Buontcmpo docs notcurrently own the entirety of the nearlyeight-acre area he proposes to develop, hehas an agreement to purchase the propertyif he can secure board approval.

On Monday night, the board haggledwith the developer over technical issues

relating to drainage, landscaping, mainte-nance responsibilities, and fire safety. At theconclusion of the meeting, Chairman JoeDoyle said the board could not vote on theproject until the problems are addressed,though it IB unlikely the board will ulti-mately deny a conforming application.

A handful of residents attended the hear-ing, but only a few volunteered opposing tes-timony during the public comment phase.

The board's planner and engineer wereconcerned that the large-scale project couldcause drainage problems; the property con-tains two large wetlands areas that serve asnatural detention basins. Also, the boardvoiced fears that the graded landscape couldsend an overwhelming amount of water andsediment into an existing stormwaterdetention facility.

Buontempo's engineer Ed Dec said thedevelopment's planned infrastructureimprovements would minimize the impactthe area would experience during unusuallystrong storms.

"The amount of runoff will not increase— in fact, it will decrease," Dec said.

The board spent a significant amount oftime discussing an adjacent property onKevin Road that has caused drainage prob-lems. But none of the problems trace theirorigin to land within the subdivision andthe situation would not be exacerbated bythe development, officials said.

Phil Sweeney, a representative of theEnvironmental Commission, said the pro-posed detention basin inlet could be over-whelmed by a downpour; engineer TomQuinn suggested the developer provide twininlets to account for the risk.

In response to questions raised aboutnoise, Dec said the likely increase attributa-ble to the development would be minimalgiven the high volume of traffic that passesthrough the area on Terrill Road. Questionswere also raised over the width of CushingRoad; Buontempo plans to widen the nar-row street at its intersection with theunnamed cul-de-sac.

Of greater concern to the board is the sizeof the development's cul-de-sac, proposed tobe 40 feet wide. Though the project meetsResidential Site Improvement Standards —which govern technical specifications forresidential development — board memberswere worried the new roadway's bulb would-n't allow enough room for fire trucks to nav-igate.

The board elected to delay extended dis-cussion about the cul-de-sac until Fire ChiefJonathan Ellis submits testimony evaluat-ing that concern.

Little testimony was devoted to broaderplanning issues. However, at the outset,attorney Robert Kraus said large-scaledevelopment will continue in Union Countybecause of skyrocketing property values andnew development restrictions in theHighlands region.

"In my earlier years, we took farms andconverted them into lots — now we're tak-ing people's backyards and creating newlots," he said. "...It's a socioeconomic thingwe will be facing for years to come."

The board will continue testimony on thesubdivision at its next meeting at 7 p.m.Dec. 13. Board discussion and a final voteover the project is likely at the conclusion ofthe public hearing.

outstanding issues.The town must find a way to

ensure that metered spaces won'tbe occupied by downtownemployees, Betancourtexplained. And he said the DWC— a public entity that representsdowntown interests and in fund-ed by a special tax on the down-town — should foot the bill for

lost revenue that would havecome from meters.

"1 think it's an idea we shouldseriously consider," Betancourtsaid. "Westfield is a destination— anything we can do to makeshopping easier for people shouldbe done."

Betancourt said the DWCcould compromise by reducingthe length of the request or scal-ing back the number of metered

spaces it wants to provide free toshoppers.

"That would make it morepalatable," he said. "There needsto be a more concerted effort torelocate employees into otherspots," he continued. "It would bea nice benefit during the holidayseason, but it needs to beenforced and the lost revenueneeds to be picked up by some-one."

Approval of the request wouldrequire support from the fullcouncil, Betancourt said. Headded that the issue could bebrought before the council at aconference session Tuesdaynight, after the subcommittee'smeeting.

Free parking is available toshoppers in the South Avenuepermit lot after 12:00 p.m.; onSaturday, shoppers can park freein municipal permit lots; and onSunday free parking is availablein both permit and meteredspaces throughout the day.

develop the ability to maintainconsistent focus for as long asfive minutes, Frank explained.

The program is being used inthe district to help students inthe classroom, but it can be help-ful to both children and adults,both in the classroom and duringthe course of ordinary life.

Studies show that PlayAttention, which was developedby NASA scientists and is usedby the Air Force for alertnesstraining, can be effective for any-one between ages 7 and 70.

Parents have been supportiveof the program to this point,Frank added; 100 percent of par-ents and children offered thechance to participate have

accepted."We tell them there are no

guarantees, but parents are will-ing to try this because it's a non-invasive way of giving kids theability to pay attention," Franksaid.

Frank added that the randomsample of students participatingin the program complements thedistrict's overall strategy of using

"It's amazing to think yourown mind can control the game,"Frank said.

Play Attention has capturedthe attention of neighboringschool districts, many of whomhave been in contact with ScotchPlains-Fanwood schools aboutthe program. And ABC's "20/20"is hoping to do a feature on theprogram, though school officialshaven't decided whether theywill allow cameras into trainingsessions.

Testimony continues on Y proposalBy MUDTHE RECORD-PRESS

SCOTCH PLAINS —Testimony continued in a hearingover the Fanwood-Scotch PlainsYMCA's $6.5 million facilities andparking lot expansion plan Nov.17, but a final decision on the proj-ect will not be reached by theBoard of Adjustment until at leastnext week.

Board chairman James Fawcettsuspended the hearing at 11 p.m.and announced the non-profitorganization's application wouldcontinue at 8:30 p.m. Thursday,Dec. 2.

VMCA officials plnn to expandtheir existing parking lot, con-struct additional workout spaceand a second swimming pool, andadd office and storage space.

If their application is approvedby the board, the YMCA will con-vert a residential lot on Mart meAvenue acquired in 2000 intoparking lot space. Currently, a sin-gle-family home occupies the tractof land, slated to be paved over andconverted into parking spaces.

According to the local land useordinance, the organization mustsupply one parking space for everyfour members over the age of 17.1b fit that requirement, the YMCAwould have to provide more than1,000 parking spaces, a figure boththe YMCA and board agree isunreasonable.

"There would be more spacesthan the YMCA could conceivablyuse — more than you'd see in aregional shopping center," saidplanner Elizabeth McKenzie, whotestified on behalf of the YMCA.

To secure site plan approval,the project will require a super-majority of affirmative votes byboard members.

In the first phase of the plan,the YMCA proposes to expand theparking lot from its existing capac-ity of 135 spaces up to 183 spaces.The organization would add a sec-ond floor mezzanine above its

SCOTCH PLAINS — TheMayor's Gala will be held from 7p.m.-midnight Dec. 3 at Sn taffy'sPantagais Renaissance.

The event will begin with acocktail hour from 7-8 p.m. fol-lowed by a recognition ceremonyand dinner and dancing.Donations for the silent auctionare being sought.

The gala will honor the town-ship's top female and male vol-unteers and an organization ofthe year — the honorees aroCarol Parks Clancy, JosephMcCourt and the StudentMovement Against Cancer(SMAC) at Scotch Plains-Fanwood High School.

Proceeds from this year'sCharity Gala will go to theScotch Plains Municipal AllianceCommittee and the EmmanuelCancer Foundation.

existing wellness center, addingspace for cardiovascular equip-ment.

The second and third phases ofthe proposal involve razing theadjacent single-family home andexpanding the parking lot byanother 100 spaces. The YMCA'B"red house," which serves as anursery school facility, would betorn down to make way for a largebuilding addition. The new spacewould house the nursery school, asecond swimming pool, officespace, a multi-purpose room, andstorage space.

Drexler said the first phasewould begin in spring or summer;the second and third phases of theproject would require outside fund-ing, likely from a capital campaign.A start date for that part of theproject is therefore somewhatuncertain.

The YMCA also has long-rangeplans to expand its gym center,while further tweaking the park-ing lot to allow access from WestBroad Street.

At the Nov. 17 hearing,McKenzie painted the YMCA'sproposed expansion as providing"greater benefits than detriments"to the township's master plan andland use ordinance.

"Your master plan advocates forthese types of quasi-public facili-ties to serve the population,"McKenzie said.

Throughout most of last week'shearing, board members attempt-ed to lobby the YMCA to beautifythe parking plan by adding islandsand expanding vegetative buffersalong property boundaries.

Board member Tim Livolsiurged the YMCA to scale back thesize of its proposed lot expansion.YMCA attorney Robert Kraus saidthe organization might be willingto reduce the amount of overallspaces; he added the YMCA wasopen to tweaking its entrance tosave several mature trees thatexist on the site.

But engineer Jim Watson saidreconfiguring the parking lot plancould be challenging, since the lotis designed to manage heavy vol-umes of cars as they queue nearthe building entrance. And zig-zag-ging the entryway to avoid treesmight not save them anyway, hesaid.

At a meeting in October, Trafficengineer Harold Maltz said theproject would cause only "de min-imus" increases in traffic andwould not substantively changethe Department ofTransportation's ratings of nearbyintersections.

SCOTCH PLAINS — Newlyre-elected Mayor Martin Markswas named to the ExecutiveBoard of the New Jersey StateLeague of Municipalities at itsannual conference last week.

Marks, who for several yearshas worked closely with theleague in advocating for prop-erty tax reform, will now havemore intimate involvementwith the league's policies andbudgeting.

"I'm excited — it's a wonder-ful opportunity," Marks said.

The league, which repre-sents the interests of NewJersey's .'166 municipalities inTrenton, has an executiveboard consisting of 21 members— one representative fromeach county. Marks replaces*Elizabeth mayor ChrisBollwage as Union County'srepresentative.

Marks said the League's twoprimary functions are to workas a lobbying agency on behalfof municipalities and to servoas an "educational and infor-mational depot" for municipalofficials. But the issue Markswants the league to focuH on isthe long-sought constitutionalconvention on property taxes,which could be placed beforevoters in 2005.

"The biggest ticket on thelist is the constitutional con-vention," Marks said. "In orderto get the referendum on theballot, both the Legislature andthe governor need to sign on...My hopi> is that with 11 little- bitof urging, Acting Gov. RichardCodey will do what is necessaryto get this tin tlu> ballot in2005."

In addition to lobbying a leg-islature and governor that hasshown lit best lukewarm sup-port for property tax reform,Marks wants the League to heinvolved in the .selection of del-egates for a potential conven-tion.

"Hopefully ;i number of thedelegates will be members ofthe league," he said.

Marks nlso attended theleague's conference in AtlanticCity as a representative ofScotch Plains, and spent muchof his time comparing miteswith representatives of othermunicipalities. He said the con-vention provides local officialswith information about newstatewide policies anil access tovendors, engineering groups.and architectural firms.

New COAU rules will con-tinue to affect township policy.Marks explained, noting thathe attended a presentationexplaining what he called the"complicated and burdensome"

rules that will govern afford-able housing requirements.

Also, Marks said he had dis-cussions with cable televisionprofessionals about possibleimprovements to TV-34. Overthe past year, township offi-cials and the Board ofEducation have consideredupgrading Scotch Plains' publicaccess station.

Though no action on theissue is imminent. Marks saidboth governing bodies will beconsulting with TV-34 chiefHob Merkte about possibleimprovements to the station.

The convention also provid-ed the mayor with informationabout the Length of ServiceAward Program (LOSAP),which allows communities toprovide veteran FireDepartment and Rescue Squadvolunteers with cash awards.

Township officials are tryingto boost the ranks of the firedepartment, and Marks saidless than 50 percent of town-ship volunteers currently qual-ify for LOSAP funds. After com-paring notes with other com-munities' LOSAP programs,Marks said Scotch Plums'guidelines may be too strict.

Officials are also consideringchanges to residency require-ments to increase the pool ofresidents who can volunteer forthe fire department.

CommentaryThanksgiving lessonsIt's heartening to know the most heavily-traveled time of the year

is Thanksgiving.Though families no longer go over the river and through the

woods to Grandmother's 1 iou.se, far-flung relatives jam the interstatehighways and airports so they can share a unique American holidaywith their loved ones. The holiday in more than just a huge feast; itin a celebration of the genuine family values at the core of theAmerican experience.

No matter what political pundits and cultural gadflies may sayabout the deterioration of American life, family ties still remainstrong. In fact, the great efforts most Americans undertake to be withtheir families on Thanksgiving are convincing proof we are not onthe road to decadence and social anarchy.

The social fabric of our country is strong, and it is strong enoughto withstand the efforts of those who wish to tear it apart for theirown political advantage. We must not let fear deter us from those tra-ditions that make as such a strong nation.

As this editorial was being written, American soldiers are fightingwars against a diflerent kind of enemy — terrorists and Iraqi insur-gents. These are wars for which we have no reference points in his-tory. They are wars without large armies moving across a battlefield.And unlike our previous wars, then1 are few large battles beingfought.and victories art' often unseen.

Because of these conflicts, there are many Americans in the mili-tary who will not be able U> be home for this Thanksgiving. They willbe sacrificing the comforts of home so that we can enjoy and givethanks for our freedoms.

The lessons from the first Thanksgiving more than three cen-turies are valid even today. That first celebration of a good harvestand cooperation among diverse- peoples taught us the value of toler-ance and community. The foundation for the personal freedomswhich we all take for granted and has l)een the envy of people allaround the world began to be built in that brave settlement inPlymouth.

Thanksgiving is a joyful time as we celebrate the ties that keep ustogether as families and Americans, It is also a time to cherish thetics that keep our communities and country together.

It never comes easyNothing comes easy in New Jersey government.The idea of having a constitutional convention to solve the state's

chronic property tax crisis seemed like a pretty good idea earlier thisyear. The Legislature has lieen unable to reform a .system that isalmost universally despised in New Jersey because it places anunfair tax burden on many .segments of the population, particularlysenior citizens. And nothing has Ix'en done to change the reliance onproperty taxes to fund public education other than the occasionalBand-Aid and a catalogue of rebates that no one seems to under-stand.

Finally, the legislature agrerd to create a task force, that wouldcreate a framework for a constitutional convention. After a series ofpublic hearings throughout the state, the task force was scheduledthis week to begin writing a recommendation that has to be deliv-ered to Acting Gov, Richard Codey by the end of the year.

But though everyone agrees the constitutional convention shouldfocus solely on changing the property tax system, there remains dis-agreement on how it should be done.The focus may boon the phrasethat a "thorough and efficient" education is a guarantee in NewJersey. This will lie the most contentious part of the constitutionalconvention because it raises questions not just on how revenue willbe raised, but how it is spent. And that leads to questions of policythat should not Ix- under the umbrella of the convention.

The other question for the convention to answer is how the rev-enue lost through pruperty tax reform will be replaced. The imposi-tion of other taxes, such as a 10-eent hike in the gasoline tax, will fallmore unfairly on lower-income individuals. The obvious and equi-table way is to raise the income tax, but that approach is sure toencounter political obstacles.

The task force's recommendations- aro just at the Ix'ginning of along mad. Any constitutional convention would have to be approvedby state voters in next November's general election, with any conven-tion not beginning until the spring of 2006. And then voters mustthen approve any changes to the Constitution in the 2006 generalelection, meaning any property tax changes would not begin untilJuly 1, 2007. the start of the state's fiscal year. That means homeowners will have to suffir through at least two more years of spiral-ing property taxes before any relief is in sight. And even then thereis no guarantee.

The constitutional convention may have its problems, but it is stillthe best hope for Now Jersey residents to see their property tax billsfinally go down.

Residents in financial trouble havemany options for help with heating bills

M.SMQHNEW JERSEY RATEPAYER ADVOCATE

For some, the winter months bring a time of hap-piness. A time of snuggling by a warm fire, ice skat-ing on a frozen pond, sleigh riding down a snow-cov-ered hill. For others, winter is a time of crisis.

Throughout New Jersey, many residents struggleduring the cold winter months to pay their heatingbills. For many, choosing between food, medicineand heat is a daily hardship.

But help is available.As the Ratepayer Advocate for the state of New

Jersey, I work on behalf of all utility customers toensure that all of our state's residents — particular-ly low-income families, senior citizens and the mostvulnerable residents — have access to affordableutility services. In New Jersey, there are severalfinancial assistance programs and other helpfuloptions available to those who cannot afford heatingcosts for their home.

Funded through state, federal and private dol-lars, the assistance programs provide financialgrants and credits to low-income residents andthose in temporary financial crisis. The programsinclude:

LIFELINE. The New Jersey Lifeline CreditProgram is a state-funded program that provides a$225 yearly credit to qualifying electric and naturalgas customers. To quality, customers must be age 65or older or disabled residents age 18 or older whoreceive Social Security disability benefits. Theannual income must be less than $20,437 if single,and $25,058 if married. For information on Lifeline,call (800) 792-9745 or visit the website atwww.statL'.nj.us/health/seniorbcnefits/paadapp.htm^life-line.

LIHEAP. The Low Income Home EnergyAssistance Program is a federally-funded programthat provides low-income households, includingrenters, with assistance in paying heating bills.

For eligibility, the 2005 maximum gross incomelevels range from $1,358 per month for a single res-ident to $4,604 per mnnth for a family of eight.Participants in this program are not limited in howthey heat their home. Heating can include electrici-ty, natural gas, oil, kerosene, wood, coal or propane.

The LIHEAP application period runs throughMarch 31, 2005. For mure information on LIHEAP,call (800) 510-3102 or visit the website at www.ener-gy assislance.nj.gov.

UNIVERSAL SERVICE FUND. The New JerseyUniversal Service Fund is a program to help low-income households pay for electric and natural gasservice. The maximum annual benefit of NJ USF is$1,800, which appears as a credit on a customer'sutility bill.

To be eligible, customers must have a total house-hold income equal to or less than 175 percent of thefederal poverty level and spend more than 3 percentof their income on electric or natural gas bills. Forelectric heat homes, customers must pay more than6 percent of the household income on electricity.

The fund is administered by the New JerseyDepartment of Human Services. When calculatinghow much a household pays for energy each year,the Department of Human Services considers bene-fits the household has received from other pro-grams, including Lifeline or LIHEAP. Beginning inNovember, residents may apply for USF andLIHEAP with one application. For more informationon NJ USF, call (800) 510-3102 or visit www.ener-gya5sistance.nj.g0v

NJ SHARES. The New Jersey Statewide HeatingAssistance and Referral for Energy Services is a pri-vate, non-profit corporation, which provides assis-

tance through a statewide, year-round independentenergy fund.

NJ SHARES provides a one-time grant for thosewho are experiencing a major financial setback,such as a job loss or medical crisis. There is noincome requirement. Recipients are asked todemonstrate that they have exhausted all othersources of assistance and that they have made agood faith effort to pay their energy bill. The pro-gram provides a one-time grant of up to $250 fornatural gas and $250 for electricity or $500 for anall-electric home.

The basic funding for NJ SHARES comes fromutility customer contributions, raised through billinserts, which are matched bv the participating util-ity. For more information on NJ SHARES, call (866)657-4273 or visit www.njshares.org

WINTER TERMINATION PROGRAM. Thestate's Winter Termination Program prevents a reg-ulated electric or gas utility from discontinuingservice during the heating season, which runs fromNov. 15 to March 15. Eligible residents includethose who receive Lifeline, LIHEAP, PAAD(Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged andDisabled) or USF benefits; receive Work First NJtemporary assistance or Work First GeneralAssistance or SSI (Supplemental Security Income);or those who can demonstrate circumstancesbeyond their control including illness, recent death,or other situations, which might cause financialhardship.

Customers who are eligible for shutoff protectionmust enter into payment arrangements with theutility. Customers will not be shut off if they canshow the utility they are making a good faith effortto pay. For information on the Winter TerminationProgram, call (800) 624-0241.

WEATHERIZATION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM.The Weatherization Assistance Program is a feder-al/state grant program that provides weatherizationservices to reduce heating costs for eligible home-owners and renters. A household income; must bebelow 130 percent of the federal poverty level, whichranges from $16,292 for a single resident to $55,247for a family of eight, according to the 20O4 weather-ization income guidelines.

After an energy audit is performed, eligible resi-dents may receive one or more weatherization serv-ices including insulation; caulking and weatherstripping; compact fluorescent lighting; refrigeratorreplacement; and repair, retrofit or replacement of aheating system, hot water heater, doors and win-dows. For more information on the WeatherizationAssistance Program, call (800) 510-3102.

Sometimes, these financial assistance programsare still not enough. In New Jersey, customers witha large balance on their utility bill can call theirutility and negotiate a long-term payment plan.Utilities are required by law to allow customers thisoption at least once.

Taking advantage of budget billing in anotheroption. Budget billing allows a customer to spreadout the yearly utility costs through equal monthlypayments. Under this plan, customers pay the sameamount each month, instead of paying higher billsduring peak usage times.

If you or someone you know is facing financialdifficulties this winter season, I urge you to takeadvantage of the assistance programs or contactyour utility for assistance. My office is also availableto help. You can reach the NJ Division of theRatepayer Advocate by calling (973) 648-2690 or byvisiting our website at www.rpa.stnte.nj.us

Everyone should be able to share in the jovs ofwintertime. By working together, we can help thosemost in need.

Jersey Boy

Mike Deak

Just a simplecountry boy

I never accepted, until I wasin college, that I was just a sim-ple country boy.

And it was sometime duringmy college years in Baltimorethat I began to truly appreciatemy hometown, NeshanicStation.

As a Somerville High Schoolstudent, I couldn't wait to leavethe village where my grandpar-ents once had a general store,my mother was born in a houseon Olive Street and uncles,aunts and cousins were asnumerous as the Lehigh Valleyfreight trains rattling throughtown. In the early 1970s, whenevery brand of liberation wassweeping the country, NeshanicStation seemed too constrictiveto an over-charged teenagemind. How could I taste the dev-ilish freedom of liberation in anatmosphere that was more con-sistent with a time when peoplein living rooms listened to theradio for enter ta inment andfarmers, smelling of feed andcows, crowded into the barbershop Saturday morningswhether or not they needed ahaircut? People still droveStudcbakers, for heaven's sake.

Plus, there was that all-too-real feeling that no matter whatI did or where I went inNeshanic Station, I was alwaysunder the scrutiny of relativesor friends of my parents. It was afish bowl existence and I wantedto swim in the thrilling watersbeyond the glass walls.

When I first went to collegeand said 1 was from NeshanicStation, classmates looked at meas I if I had lapsed into anancient Indian tongue or haddelivered the New Jersey trans-lation of Hootcrville. Instead,with the valiant shame of ado-lescence, I soon learned to say 1was from a .small town about 15miles from golden Princeton, atruthful description that devi-ously glossed over the fact thatfrom my bed I could still hearroosters welcome the dawn.

I don't remember what trig-gered the revelation that I was asimple country boy. Perhaps itwas a belated Holden Caulfieldmoment when I X-rayed thephoniness of my classmates who,like all college students, werebusy constructing new selves todisguise the natural self-doubtand self-loathing.

Perhaps it was the realizationthat my classmates from upper-middle class backgrounds had asoulless suburban existencewithout the sense of communitythat had dominated my life.

Or most probably it was theresult of endless overnight talkswith the first girl who had stum-bled into love with me. Only inthe stark intimacy of 4 a.m.,when the effects of everythingdone the evening before werebeginning to flee into memory,are you forced to confront thetruth about yourself. Only in thesafe warmth of someone I couldtrust was I able to generate theepiphany that it was ultimatelydisingenuous to construct anarch intellectual shell aboutmyself because the core of myexistence, where my creativityand compassion dwell, was aproduct of my upbringing inNeshanic Station.

I sometimes think I havebeen extremely lucky to havehad the best of both worlds —the uncomplicated decency of asmall-town upbringing and therich personal rewards of sophis-ticated academia. The absence ofone or the other would havegiven me a completely differentlife. I remember, as if it wereyesterday, the world's longestkiss as my girlfriend and Iembraced and said goodbye oneThanksgiving, and I alsoremember the warm rush ofwhat I know now was love when1 saw my father waiting on thetrain platform at NewBrunswick. The fashionabledarkness of a young writer van-ished as everything seemed tocome together in the jigsaw puz-zle of existence.

It was only much later, withthe accumulated wisdom of thetime, that I would realize therewould always be missing pieces.

Suburban towns need voice on freeholder boardTo The Record-Press:

As a Republican candidatefor Union County Freeholderthis past election, I recentlyreceived from the county clerk'soffice a report containing theelection results, in detail, of thevotes cast in the general elec-tion.

The report is a breakdown ofhow many votes each candidatereceived in each ward, districtand town. It also shows whatpercentage of the votes a candi-date received. A review of thisyears numbers makes a strongargument for changing howmembers of the Board ofChosen Freeholders are select-ed.

Currently the board mem-bers are elected at large, mean-ing our county is not dividedinto districts; therefore, it does-n't matter where in the countya board member resides or howmany members are electedfrom the same municipality orgeographic area.

Normally, three seats are upfor grabs each year and anunlimited number of candi-dates can appear on the ballot.Occasionally an independentcandidate will be running, butgenerally three from theRepublican Party and threefrom the Democratic Party arethe choices.

TheRepublicans were victorious inWestfield, Scotch Plains, Clark,Garwood, Mountainside,Springfield, Kenilworth,Berkeley Heights, Summit,New Providence and Cranford,with Republican candidates inthe top three in Roselle Parkand Fan wood, as well.

United Fund takes onnew name: United Way

WESTFIELD — The UnitedWayofWeatfield: That'sthe official name now for theaward-winning United Fund ofWestfield.

During its decades-longpresence in town, the UnitedFund always has been affiliatedwith United Way of America,the Virginia-based nationalorganization.

Under the official member-ship rules of that entity, thelocal unit haschanged itsname to UnitedWay ofWestfield.

"The namemay be a bit dif-ferent, but theorganization isstill the same,Maggio, its

"The name may be a bitdifferent, but the organi-zation is still the same."

— Linda Maggio

said Lindaexecutive director

since 1975. "The change allowsus to conform with United Wayrules that mandate that affili-ates use 'United Way' in theirrespective titles and logos."

The national United Waysystem includes a series ofregional and county units aswell as town-based organiza-tions. In Westfield, the organi-zation's success has beenextraordinary — the localUnited Way goal has been metevery year for the past three

decades.This venr, a campaign to

raise $700,000 is in full gear.Hundreds of volunteers aresoliciting donations from resi-dents, business owners, profes-sionals, and others in Westfield.

"Once again, the town isresponding a hundredfold," saidMaggio.

The United Way of Westfieldprovides funding for 20 localagencies that provide many

programs andservices to townresidents. Eachagency under-goes an exten-sive annualreview prior todistribution ofthe funds.

In addition to its standardagency-related work, theUnited Way of Westfield hasalso been an instrumental forcein times of need. For example,under Mnggio's direction, theorganization led the reliefefforts to insist local families ofSept. 11 victims.

Tlie name change will haveno effect on the operation of theformer United Fund.

"We will still be the snmeorganization at the same loca-tion at the north side train sta-tion," emphasized Maggio.

Boosters commit $25K to track, fieldWESTFIELD — On Nov. 11,

the Boosters welcomed SchoolSuperintendent Dr WilliamFoley and former Chairman ofthe Recreation CommissionKeith Hertell, who solicitedBooster support for the upcom-ing bond referendum to refur-bish the field and track atKehler Stadium.

Foley and Hertell asked theBoosters to join the other sportsorganizations in the town indonating Debt Service financialsupport for the project as well asvot« support.

The cost of this Held and trackwould be $1.4 million, the debtservice for which would equateto $18 per year for an averageWestfield homeowner.

According to Foley andHertell, the basis for theimprovements was that field usein the town has great I u expand-ed over the last 20 years, almostdoubling. In 1983 there were 670Westfield High School studentsparticipating in athletics, com-pared to 1,226 in 2003.

Kehler field with natural grasshas had limited use and is notused in the spring so that thefield could be rehabilitated forfall sports. An artificial turffield would open the stadium forspring use.

Additional favorable pointsincluded:

— Use of the fields for theentire year and even the entireday.

— Minimal impact due toweather.

— Elimination of grass cut-ting which was weather depend-ent.

— Low maintenance: surface:only brushed once per month.

— Very durable field andmuch safer surface

After the presentation, theBoosters voted to commit$25,000 to the project by paying$5,000 per year toward the debtservice for 5 years.

The Westfield SchoolBoosters Association is a groupof 50 men committed to raisingfunds to support all school ath-letics.

Youth from St. Helen's Roman Catholic Church recently slept out under the stars to raise awarenessabout the problem of homelessness.

Teens host Sleep-Out to help homelessWESTFIELD—The sixth annual St.

Helen's Youth Group Sleep-Out for theHomeless was recently held on the frontlawn of the parish complex on Lambert'sMill Road with 45 teens and their adultchaperones from Clark, Cranford, Fanwood,Scotch Plains and Westfield participating.

They slept out under the stars, simulat-ing the everyday conditions of homelesspeople. The activity was undertaken toraise awareness in the youth and the con-gregation about the plight of local homelesspeople.

In addition to raising awareness, the pro-gram raised money as the teens went outinto the public and found people who wouldsponsor them for every hour they spent out-

aide in the elements. More than $3,000was collected and will be used to supportthe children at the Ozanam CatholicCharities Family Shelter in Edison.

Patti Gardner, youth minister, and mem-bers of the youth group visit the shelterevery Tuesday in un effort to help the chil-dren with their homework as well as pro-vide them with fun activities. St. Helen'shas already purchased a basketball hoopand basketballs for the playground at theshelter as well as sneakers and new cloth-ing for the children.

In continuing with St. Helen's devotiontoward helping the homeless, the congrega-tion hoHts the homeless in the parish cen-ter three times a year. Marilyn Ryan,

director of St. Helen's Outreach Program,coordinates these events and recruits vol-unteers to cook and stay with the familiesovernight.

The youth group is now planning itsannual Christmas party for all the familiesat the shelter. In the parish center, thetoons of the parish make Christmas cookiesand decorate stockings and Santa hatswith thi> shelter children. They also have asing-along and a visit from Old St. Nickhimself.

Those who would like to help and haveany children's books, toys, children's coatsor clothes in good condition to donate to thehomeless are encouraged to call PattiGardner at (908) 233-8444, ext. 13.

Story helps organization raise $50K in grantsSTAFF WRITER

Edith Coogan was pleasedwhen she read the article in theSuburban News in August, andeven more so when she read itagain later that week in theCranford Chronicle and Record-Press. She expected a few peopleto mention to her that they readthe article, and hoped that amaybe few people would give afew dollars to her charity programafter they read it.

What she didn't expect is themore than $50,000 in grant moneythe article helped her secure forher project, Raphael's Life Housein Elizabeth.

The article, written by EllenDooley, detailed the incredibleamount of work and the immeas-urable community support thatCoogan and her friend find col-league Mary Orrico drew upon tore-open the house for homeless,pregnant women with nowhereelse to go, after it had been closeddue to financial considerations.

By the time the article wasprinted in the Aug. 19 Chronicle, anumber of community members,tradesmen, and professionals hadalready conspired to make surethe re-opening got off the ground.

Thousands of hours and dollarshad been poured into the building,and donations were already start-ing to flow in to keep the progressgoing. Coogan and Orrico main-tained speaking schedules andwrote grant applications, assistedby Cranford resident MildredLeonard.

What happened next was noth-ing short of inspirational.

As a long shot, Coogan enclosedDooley's article in a grant applica-tion for the Alice C. TylerPerpetual Trust, a foundation thatfunds programs designed to helpchildren and the environment.This time, they made an excep-tion.

"They give to children and thoenvironment, but they don't usual-ly give to women," Coogan said."But because of the article andhow it focused on the babies, wereceived $40,000 from the fund."Coogan would not have eventhought to apply for the fundinghad it not been for the urging ofCranford resident and Raphael'sLife House fan John Miccio, whoconnected her to the trustees ofthe foundation.

At the same time, Cranford res-ident Patrick Walsh read the storyand was equally touched. He hadbeen determined to do something

for the charity when he heardCoogan speak at St. Michael'sChurch 10 years ago, but the topicremained on the back burner untilhe read about her again. The vicepresident of operations for BostonScientific, a company that devel-ops and manufactures minimally-invasive medical devices, Walsharranged a $10,000 grant andcomputer donations from the com-pany through his firm's founda-tion.

Coogan was thrilled with thosimultaneous announcements* ofthe grant money, which will paythe salaries of a housekeepingmanager and a service managerfor the house.

She said she had been doubt-ful that the Tyler grant wouldcome through, since she had beenwaiting months to hear form theorganization. Besides, shethought, the fund issued grantsto well-established institutionslike Harvard, Yale, and theScripps Institute ofOceanography, and high profiletrustees like Sally Ride served onthe board. Coogan didn't figurethe Tyler fund would notice sucha comparatively small enterpriselike Raphael's Life House. Andshe hadn't even known about themoney from Boston Scientific

before it arrived.In the end, the wait was well

worth it. And besides the bigmoney, Coogan said that smallerdonations have come filtering inthrough the mail at an increasedrate since Dooley s article wasprinted.

For a Scotch Plains sports junkie, Friday was a tough nightBy DAVE) LAZARUSCORRESPONDENT

In the twilight of one of the shortestdays of the year, there was a brightglow to the Scotch Plains-FanwoodHigh School parking lot in the lateafternoon on the last Friday beforeThanksgiving.

It not came not from the fleet ofschool buses on hand but from theunbridled enthusiasm of students, par-ents and Raider fans who were prepar-ing to split off in two directions —some to the north for a game on thegridiron, others to the south for a soc-cer duel — to watch two Scotch Plainsteams in search of playoff glory. Youngboys in their PAL football jerseysplayed catch with each other while gig-gling girls in their soccer jerseysgabbed on their cell phones, waiting forthe buses to leave.

It was an impressive? showing ofschool pride and spirit, but for manylocal residents it was nlso a difficultchoice. Although this writer wouldhave ra ther watched the soccer teamcomplete its incredible season againstWall at The College of New Jersey inEwing, I chose the football game atWest Morris Central , because I washelping to lond the band equipment

and also my daughter performs in colorguard. Another Scotch Plains parenthad a choice between watching his sonplav the same tunes in the band hehad heard dozens of times or seeing hisnephew play soccer. After some prod-ding from his wife, he opted for theband.

Earlier in the season it hadappeared very likely tha t this would bea night free from Rnider athletics. Thefootball team struggled and barelysqueaked into the playoffs. Decidedunderdogs at second-seeded WarrenHills, the Raiders exploded with theirbest performance of the season to scorea stunning 21-0 victory. The soccerteam started 1-2, but caught Tire andwon 17 straight games, including a 1-0victory on what was cssentinllyRamapo's home field in the semi-finalsNov. 15.

There was n good amount of historysurrounding both mateh-ups. TheRaiders soccer squad had twice beatenWnll in the s ta te finals rind hadalready taken care of Wnll neighborMiddletown South in the sectionalfinals the week bo fore. But the footballteam had never beaten West Morris,losing all three playoff games betweenthe two schools.

Supporters of only one other high

school in the state had the dilemmaFriday night — ironically enough, itwas the Raiders' soccer opponent in theGroup III title game. The Raidersgames would start an hour apart , withthe soccer game starting at 6 p.m.Everyone, it seemed, had somebodywho would provide updates.

The team and hand arrived at a vir-tually empty West Morris football stadi-um at 5:30. It would eventually fill up.but rush hour traffic would keep theRaider fan buses from arriving untilright about game time. Down at Ewing,the fan bus was fighting siniilur traffic.

As we got ready to watch the start ofthe game, my cell phone rang and theshocking news fro in Ewing arrived. Notonly were the Raiders trailing at half-time, they had yielded two goals, (ismany us they had given in up in thepast*17 giimcs. Not to worry, the callersaid, we were dawn at West Orange 2-1and came back with three unansweredgoals. I spread the news to the Haiderfans, some of who knew already; then1

were looks of shock on some faces, butmost firmly believed tha t the soccerteam would prevail.

The start of the football game didnothing to pick up our spirits a.s WestMorris ran the first play from scrim-mage 8/S yards for n quick 7-0 lead.

Scotch Plains would respond, marchingsmartly down the field on a time-con-suming drive to tie the score. We werehoping that it was a good omen for our.soccer brethren !>0 miles to the south. Ikept looking at the cell phone wonder-ing when the happy news of a GroupIII championship svuuld arrive. As thecluck ticked to 7:10. I could wait nolonger..

"One hundred Scutch Plains fans arebreathlessly waiting for an update," Isaid, as the band noise at the stadiumand the crowd nn the other end madethe connection barely audible. "Pleasetell me :i~2 Raiders,"

Through the phone came the news:"I can barely hear you, but it's 4-1."

Bud news spreads quickly; in min-utes everyone knew that it was up tothe football team to save the night. Butthe first half ended badly ns WestMorris addc-d a third touchdown in thefinal thirty seconds of the second quar-ter to take an imposing 21-7 lend. TheRaiders fought hard to the very end,cutting a 2H-7 margin to a touchdown,but their last chance at recovering anunside kick failed.

AH they had done an hour before inEwing, the Scotch Plains faithful piledinto the buses for an unhappy ridehome — already dreuming of next year.

Holiday show takes a new look at Christinas taleIs the meaning of the holidays getting

lost in the hustle and bustle of the season?Try to get to Scotch Plains for Torn CurtainProductions dramatic Christinas musical,"Two From Galilee" which takes the stageDec. 10 and 11 and again Dec. 16 and 17 atEvangel Church.

Written by Robert Sterling and KarlaWorley from a novel by Marjorie Holmes, themusical uses drama, humor and music toconvey the story of Jesus' birth and the lovestory of Mary and Joseph.

"The play takes some literary license indepicting Mary and Joseph prior to theirunion and tries to portray their human qual-ities, their relationship with their parentsand future in-laws," said director Bob Olseu,a Westfield resident who has directed TornCurtain Productions for the past 14 years,"The musical has a Romeo and Juliet twist— both families oppose the relationship andtry to arrange other marriage partners fortheir children, but as we watch each charac-ter's situation unfold, and in faith accepttheir place in this story ... we see clearly ...that it's our story, too."

One of the principal actors is KristinaGeneva, a student in New York City at theAmerican Musical and Dramatic Academy,

who plays the part of Mary. Genova notedthat today an out-of-wedlock pregnancy isnot considered very shameful, but back thenit was horrendous.

She said, "Through the musical you seewhat a strong woman Mary had to havebeen — even with the promise of the angel.Mary, like us, was flawed, but God chose herbecause she was willing. She truly relied onGod for inner strength,"

Marc Perrella of Plainfield plays Joseph,"I've always felt that Joseph was one personin the Christmas story who didn't getenough credit," said Perrella, a long timeparticipant in Torn Curtain productions."He was a real man of faith, He fit intoGod's plan and did what God asked him todo."

According to the Bible, Joseph and Marywere pledged to be married when the newsof her pregnancy led Joseph to decide to qui-etly end the betrothal. "It's unthinkable now,but according to Jewish law at that time,she could have been stoned," Perrella noted,adding that when, according to Christianteachings, the angel appeared to Joseph andtold him of God's plan that, the child Marycarried would be the Messiah, Joseph's faithwas built up.

^ musical is funny, with some comicrelief provided by the three Magi and theirentourage. It's also very moving, veryhuman and is a great way to get into thereal spirit of Christmas" said co-directorAndrea Saladino of Clark,

"The entire production is made up fromthe volunteers of many area churches,"added Maureen Corrao the artistic director."The cast, chorus, crew and tech staff totalclose to one hundred and took three monthspreparing this production as a gift to ourcommunity."

Supporting Genova and Perrella areSynnove Reilly of Berkley Heights and AlCarmon of South Plainfield. Liz Leadenhamof Colonia, who is the wardrobe designer,and Bob Olsen round out the principal castas the parents of Mary and Joseph.

There is no admission cost and aThursday night performance has been addedto accommodate people who wouldn't other-wise make it because of their busy week-ends.

All performances begin at 7:30 p.m., withthe doors opening at 6:45 p.m.

Older Americans must takesteps to protect credit rating

(NAPSI) — The majority of older Americanshave excellent credit histories, which makesunderstanding ways to protect your "golden" creditrecord more important than ever.

Americans 55 and older control 70 percent ofthe country's personal wealth and are the fastestgrowing group of new Internet users.Unfortunately, this group also accounts for 80 per-cent of the fraud complaints logged by the FederalTrade Commission.

The umbrella group Vour Credit CardCompanies urges older Americans to take somesimple steps to better understand their credit pic-ture, protect themselves from identity theft andcredit card fraud, and practice online safety.

Here are some tips on protecting yourself fromtheft, fraud and cybercriminals:

— Never give personal information to astranger, especially your Social Security number,birth date, bank account number, credit card num-ber or address. Identity thieves can use this infor-mation to make purchases in your name.

— Reject offers from companies that requireyou to pay an up-front fee to get approved for acredit card.

— If you receive a credit offer you think seems

questionable from unsolicited mail or a telemar-keter, check with your local Better BusinessBureau at www.bbb.org or the NationalConsumers League's National Fraud InformationCenter at www.fraud.org.

— Be alert for scammers e-mailing you andasking you to "update" private information.Requests for personal information such as a userID, account number or password are usually fake.Legitimate companies do not request this type ofinformation by e-mail.

— Create passwords that are easy to rememberbut difficult to guess. Mix letters and numbers andavoid using birthdays and Social Security num-bers. Use a different password for financial-servic-es Web sites and transactions than for otheraccounts.

— If you think you've been scammed, immedi-ately contact your financial institution and alertany of the three credit bureaus to place a fraudalert on your credit report. You should also file acomplaint with the Federal Trade Commission andcontact local law enforcement to alert them of thepossible crime.

In-home living assistance serv-ices may be the answer. This serv-ice pairs seniors with caregiverswho can cook, clean, drive clientsto appointments and other day-to-day tasks. The prospect of findinga trusted person can be intimidat-ing, however. Often, in-home carefollows a fall or a hospital staywhen help must be found immedi-ately.

Many people are unaware howinexpensive in-home care can bewhen compared to institutionalfacilities, though it's important tonote that Medicare generally doesnot pay for this type of service.Many care providers have varyinglevels of service to fit each client'sneed and budget. Some seniorsmay find enormous benefit intwice a week visits for generalcleaning and appointments, whileothers may want someone thereeach day to assist with mobilityand personal hygiene.

highest standard for clienflfcHeinle believes that the o^ft wayto ensure a good match betweensenior and aide is to ask for ongo-ing feedback.

"We like to follow up with ourseniors within 24 hours of an aidevisiting the home," says Heinle."Then we continue to ask for feed-back on a weekly basis to makesure everything is runningsmoothly and the client is feelingcomfortable and getting the serv-ice they need."

Heinle recommends that sen-iors and their families gather asmuch information as possiblebefore agreeing to an in-home liv-ing assistance service, especially iffamily members live out of thearea.

Aside from questions about costand scheduling, Heinle recom-mends asking the following:

— What is the aide's back-ground? Do they have experienceworking with seniors? Do theyhave references?

— What happens after hours?Is there someone available byphone should an emergency orquestion arise after 5 p.m.?

— If the aide is employed by anagency, how can you get in touchwith the owners? Are they local?How long have they been i£ busi-ness? ~

SportsRaiders' comebackfalls short, 28-21LaForge throws for 183 yds in lossTHE RECORD-PRESS

CHESTER - It seemed as ifScotch Plains football was inline for a magical, unpredictableseason.

Despite many ups and downsthroughout the 2004 campaign,the Raiders won the first roundof the North 2, Group III play-offs against Morris Hills andwere matched against WestMorris in the semifinals Fridaynight for a chance at the section-al championship for the secondyear in a row.

Then there was the first playof the game.

The Wolfpack's Jake Fieldtook a handoff around the leftside for an 83-yard touchdownand Scotch Plains was forced toclimb out of a hole once again.

"They ran a jet sweep and wedidn't make the right adjust-ment," said Scotch Plains headcoach Steve Ciccotelli after theloss, The next time they ran itwe made the right play."

The next time Field took theball on a sweep, after a 7:15, 11-play scoreless possession by theRaiders, Mike DNizio came upto make the stop for a six yardloss.

West Morris was forced topunt and the Raiders' offensivemomentum could continue. Thistime quarterback Dan LaForgeorchestrated an 8-play, 4:16scoring possession to tie thegame 7-7, finalized by his 19-yard bootleg keeper — a play

LaForge also ran for a 14-yardgain earlier in the drive. He had56 yards rushing on six carries.

LaForge also completed thefirst of eight passes to Sean

Smith during the posses-sion. Smith racked up

— Steve Clccotelllhead coach

as tough the score would remainthat way as the teams preparedfor halilime.

The Raiders' Mike Baumwollwent back to punt with about aminute left and fielded a lowsnap from center. Errantly,Baumwoll's knee touched theturf in catching the ball, mean-ing he was automatically ruleddown and the Wolfpack tookover at the Scotch Plains 21

yard line. Three plays later WestMorris' quarterback threw hissecond touchdown of the contestwith 20 seconds remaining totake a 21-7 lead though ScotchPlains led in time of possessionin the first half, 15:01-8:33.

"The punt was a key playbecause we gave them n shortfield to work with and it gavethem a two-touchdown lead,"Ciccotelli said. "Mike has been anice three-year player for usand I know he feels bad aboutit."

Scotch Plains attempted acomeback after receiving theball in the second half. LaForgecompleted two passes to Smithand junior running backRashawn Strong (9 carries, 38yards) provided a spark to getinto West Morris territory, asLakiem Lockery (13 carries, 41yards) did his best to fightthrough a nagging mid-seasoninjury.

LaForge (17-22, 183 yards)completed his first eight passesof the game but his first incom-pletion of the game was a bigone — an interception on theseven yard line. Two plays laterWest Morris got another bigrunning play — an 84-yardscamper from Nate Anderson totake a 28-7 lead.

"(LaForge) did a lot of goodthings tonight," Ciccotelli said."We did what we wanted to dooffensively but defensively wehad some breakdowns that hurtus for big plays."

Westfield tops Cranford at MOC•yDMflD LAZARUSTHE RECORD-PRESS

After sliding into the Meet ofChampions (MOC) by theslimmest of margins, the Westfieldboys cross country finished eighthat Holmdel Park on Saturday.

With Jeffrey Perrella and RobBroadbcnt provided an excellentone-two and the Blue Devils final-ly got the best of season-longnemesis Cranford — defeatingthem for the first time in four triesthis year.

Perrella rebounded from a dis-appointing ninth place finish atthe Group IV meet last week torun his finest race of the season infinishing sixth, with a Holmdelpei-Honal beat of 16:07.

"In past races at Holmdel, I'vegotten out really slowly," Perrellasaid. "I thought that I was savingenergy for the latter parts of theraces, but I was really just handi-capping myself from the gun. Sothe plan for this race was to take itout hard for the first mile so Iwouldn't get boxed in.

After stabilizing his breathingand getting into a good groove,Perrella was ready to make hismove in the final 800 meters.

"When we left the woods and Ihit the top of the clearing there at

CROSS COUNTRYthe end, I just turned over and randown the pack in front of me," saidPerrella. "All cylinders were firing;I was kicking as hard as I could. Ididn't want to run a bad race infront of my family and I didn'twant to let down the team again."

While Perrella has been nearthe top of every race this fall, ithns been thp emergence ofBroadbent that has elevatedWestfield. Broadbent droppedanother 11 seconds off hisHolmdel best and has been set-ting one personal best afteranother since late October.

"The beginning of the season Igot off to a slow start," saidBroadbent. "After the ShoreCouches meet we had about twoand one half weeks off frommeets and I trained extremelyhard which gave me a huge dropin my times. Mr. Martin workedus all very hard up until section-als and a lot of my improvementwas because of him."

Another great story has beenthe emergence of Mike Goiski, atop pole-vaulter on the tracKteam, who was talked into run-ning cross country last springand ran 17:30 Saturday.

"He has played an integralroll on this team being the num-ber three or four guy," saidPerrolla. "Without his perform-ances, there would be a huge gapin the team and we wouldn't behalf as successful as we are now."

Junior Kris Kagan finishedahead of Gorski, running 17:17,and the trio of Ameer Rogers, JayHoban, and Raymond Chen, alljuniors, finished within nine sec-onds of each other.

Kagan, Rogers, Hoban andChen have each performed theirjobs consistently throughout theyear and continued to do so intothe MOC. The group was respon-sible for beating out Ocean Cityfor eighth place overall. The BlueDevils needed a sixth runnertiebreaker to beat out OceanCity, which also scored 223points.

While the team success wasforemost on the runners' mindstheir individual performanceswere superb for a school with along history of running success.

"It was my best race in thesense that it was my fastest andmost important for the team,"said Perrella. "I'd say I executedpretty well. In retrospect, I thinkI could have run faster."

Senior QB Mike Patella looks toend the season with a winagainst Plalnfleld onThanksgiving during the teams'historic 100th meeting.

100th meetingfor Devils, Cards

A holiday tradition continuesthis year and reaches a milestoneas Westfield Blue Devils facePlainfield Cardinals (4-5) for the100th time this Thanksgiving inPlainfield at 11 a.m.

Last week the Blue Devils (1-8) got their first win of the seasonagainst Edison (0-9) in a consola-tion game, 28-7 and look to get awin against a fierce rival. A victo-ry might make a tough seasonworth while and it would surelymake Thanksgiving dinner tastethat much better.

Senior fullback Rich Stewartled Westfield with 77 yards lastweek. He and senior quarterbackMike Patella look to guide theoffense with seniors TomDelDuca and Mnrk Harbaugh.

Senior linebackers MarcDowling and Bryan Power (bothcaptains) as well as senior defen-sive end Mike Finne lend thedefense with cornerbnek KyleClark.

SP-FsoccerseasonendsWall, 4-1•y CHAD HUHIIWAVTHE RECORD-PRESS 4'

EWING — When you playboys soccer for Scotch Plains-Fan wood under 500-win headcoach Tom Breznitsky, theexpectations are high.

So on Friday night at theCollege of New Jersey when theRaiders tost to Wall 4-1 in theGroup III title game, disap-pointment ran high. However,looking back, the Raiders con-tinued a fine tradition of elitesoccer in 2004.

"We didn't get that ultimatebrass ring," said Breznitsky,"but we have plenty to be proudof. This was a great team thatworked hard all year. We got the

(Union CountyTournament) trophy

back where it belongsand we came out on top

in the conference.""We took this season to its

maximum and that's all you canask," he said.

Breznitsky said the 4-1 scoreis deceiving because he believesif some breaks had gone differ-ently, Scotch Plains would becelebrating the state champi-onship.

"Wall is not a bad team at allbut I certainly don't think theyare better than us," Breznitakysaid. "If we played them •gain,I'm sure the niulta would havebeen different. After I watchedthe tape, I realized we dominat-ed this game in every aspect butthe final score. We probably hadpossession 60-70 percent of thetime."

Breznitsky said Wall (18-3-3)was opportunistic in their scor-ing Friday night. Wall had twoshots on goal and scored onthem both to take a 2-1 lead intohalftime.

"Unfortunately their firstgoal hit one of our defendersand went in because Bryan(Meredith, goalie) was leaningin the original direction of thekick," Breznitsky said.

The Raiders (23-4) cameright back to score the equalizerjust one minute later as SeanMcNelis continued his hotstreak to score his 14th goal thisyear off a Sean Young headeracross the box.

Before the half ended, theRaiders had a scoring opportu-nity but a Young header into thegoal was waved off. Breznitskysaid the officials errantly calleda push on Young.

"That would have been ahuge goal because it tied thegame up again," Breznitskysaid. "Who knows what couldhave happened from there."

Wall took a 3-1 lead by con-verting their first shot on goalin the second half as Breznitskychose to bring up defenderTerrence Charles to the forwardposition.

"It was a choice I felt wasright at the time because at thatpoint, we needed a goal,"Breznitsky suid. "It didn't mat-ter whether we lost 2-1 or 4-1.We needed a goal and hadchances but we just couldn'tpunch one in."

Breznitsky said anotheraspect of the game that played arole in Wall's win was the size ofthe field — a larger area thatWall wns familiar with and tookadvantage of by sending longkicks into the corners.

"It was longer and wider,"Breznitsky said of the field."They knew how to play it —which balls were going to stayin bounds. They got a lot of ballsthat way and their keeper had agood game."

Nevertheless, Raiders seniorsChnrles (enptnin), McNelia,Billy Albiznti, Chris Annese,A.J. Appezzato, StefanoGaetano, Casey Hoynes-O'Connor (captain), ChrisHuether and Greg Leischer(enptnin) continued a traditionof excellence this year in ScotchPlains.

During the winter season peopleeverywhere are decorating their homesin the holiday spirit. At the same time,some people are preparing to move.Burgdorff ERA encourages consumers totake advantage of the great opportuni-ties during the festive holiday seasonwith the Homes for the Holidays pro-gram that began Nov. 15 and continuesuntil Jan. 15, 2005.

"For many years people believed thatbuying or selling a home specificallyduring the months of November,December and January would be unsuc-cessful," remarked Pat Hoferkamp,President and Chief Operating Officer ofBurgdorff ERA. "On the contrary, thereal estate market has been extremelybusy during the recent winter seasons."

Homes for the Holidays engages con-sumers who are either buying or sellinga home by providing many valuable ben-efits. For example, executive transfereesusually have extensive breaks duringthe holiday period and have more time

to look for a home.A home decorated for the holiday sea-

son projects an ambiance that attractsbuyers, and since there are fewer homeson the market, it is more likely to sell.Some homebuyers actually purchasehomes as gifts,

"A well-decorated holiday home has agreat deal of appeal to potential buyersbecause it resonates with them on suchan emotional level," said Hoferkamp."For example, hanging a decorativewreath on the front door and placing litcandles and fresh seasonal flowersaround the home is inviting to the poten-tial buyer."

BurgdorfTs Home for the HolidayProgram assists the sellers by providingindividualized service options. Showingsare by advance appointment or throughthe listing agent, allowing for convenientshowings during the busy holiday sea-son.

Homes can be featured in a HolidayOpen House, which is especially effective

when coupled with seasonal refresh-ments and festive holiday music. Homesellers can reduce holiday stress andobtain peace of mind by having theirproperty covered by a home warrantyoffered through the ERA HomeProtection Plan.

Realtor aims to offera rapid response forprospective sellers

CRANFORD — "The decision to sell a home is often anemotional roller coaster ride for home sellers," says StefanOppermann, CEO of Real Estate Consultants. "Their nervesare frazzled and they want to move forward quickly. Weunderstand their emotional situation and have a system inplace that assures clients that they will hear from one ofour agents, usually within an hour."

Real Estate Consultants' Client Care Representativesanswer telephone inquiries about listed homes seven days aweek between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. and direct all inquiries tothe listing agent (who knows the most about the home)immediately.

Similarly, calls received from potential sellers to a ClientCare Representative are forward immediately to a salesmanager for quick assistance and placement with the prop-er sales associate.

The dreaded "floor time," usually handled by new or inex-perienced Realtors, does not exist at Real EstateConsultants. Client Care Representatives are far morecapable, "especially when time is of the essence," said

Oppermann. "Even after businesshours, all calls left in the electronicvoice mail system for a sales associateare automatically sent to the appropri-ate agent."

Additionally, Real EstateConsultants provides an agent's directcell phone number in all of its market-ing materials, including its on-line vir-tual tours, so that internet shopperscan arrange an appointment quicklyand directly with the listing agent.

Oppermann reports that the firm'scommitment to communications withboth buyers and sellers has provensuccessful.

"Our goal is to provide the consumerthe information that they need asexpeditiously as possible. Our savvyclients find our quick response timevery reassuring at a time when theyneed the support of a professional".

Automotive/ClassifiedThanksgiving Travel To Surpass 2000 Levels;

Costs Up From Last Year, But Still Below 2000 LevelsAREA — Increases in both air and

auto travel will push Thanksgivingtravel volumes above pre-9/11 levelsfor the first time, according to AAA.AAA estimates that 37.2 millionAmericans will travel 50 miles ormore from home this holiday, a 3.1percent increase from last year's 36.1million travelers.

'Travelers' increased confidence inboth the economy and airline securitywill make this an extremely busytravel holiday," said Rick Zeckendorf,AAA New Jersey Automobile Club'svice president of travel services. "Airfares, hotel rates and gas prices haveall increased from last Thanksgiving,yet more of us will head forGrandma's this holiday than did evenin 2000 - considered by many to bethe high water mark for the travelindustry."

By mode of transportation, AAApredicts:

30.6 million travelers (82 % of all

holiday travelers) expect to go bymotor vehicle, a 2.9 % increase fromthe 29.8 million who drove a year ago.

4.6 million < 12 % of holiday travel-ers) plan to travel by airplane, up4.07c from the 4.4 million that flewlast Thanksgiving.

2.0 million travelers i5%) will go bytrain, bus, or other mode of trans-portation, up from 1.9 million a yearago.

Holiday auto travelers will find gasprices nationwide currently averag-ing $1.95 for a gallon of self-serve reg-ular gasoline - down 8 cents duringthe last two weeks, but about 45 centshigher than a year ago.

In New Jersey, the average price ofa gallon of gas is: regular, $1.92; mid-grade, $2.06; and premium, $2.14.Statewide, the average price of a gal-ton of regular gas is 42 cents higherthan last Thanksgiving whenmotorists paid $1.50.

Locally, residents of Morris, Essex,

Union and Warren Counties will paythe following averages for a gallon ofgasoline: regular, $1.93; mid-grade,$2.03; and premium, $2.11. Comparedto last Thanksgiving's local average of$1.53 for a gallon of regular gas,prices are up 40 cents.

Other travel costs are up, as well,with AAA's Leisure Travel Indexshowing Thanksgiving airfares up 2.6percent from last year, reflectingincreases in demand that haveexceeded airline capacity growth.Holiday hotel rates are up, with a 5.7percent increase that is in keepingwith a recent uptick in hotel occupan-cy and room rates across much of thecountry. The one savings for travelerswill be on rental cars, with rates down2.7 percent.

"Although overall costs are up formlast year, many trips will cost lessthan they did in 2000. Increased com-petition from discount airlines hascaused airfares to plummet on many

routes and hotel rates have onlyrecently begun to rise after they tum-bled during the recession," saidZeckendorf.

The greatest number ofThanksgiving auto travelers will <iri r-inate in the Southeast with 8.8 mil-lion, followed by the West, 6.6 million;Midwest, 6.6 million; the GreatLakes, 6.0 million; and the Northeast,2.4 million.

The West and Southeast areexpected to produce the largest num-ber of air travelers with l.«'B millioneach, followed by the Northeast andMidwest at 700,000 each; and theGreat Lakes with 600,000.

Expect full guest bedrooms andsleeper sofas, as 63 percent ofThanksgiving travelers expect to stayat a friend or relative's home. Hotelsand motels are a distant second at 23percent, followed by cabin/condo, 3percent; camper/trailer/RV/tent. 2percent; bed and breakfast, 1 percent;

other, 1 percent; no overnight stay, 3percent; and didn't know, 4 percent.

Small towns and rural areas arethe expected destination for 40 per-cent of Thanksgiving travelers, fol-lowed closely by cities, 36 percent.Oceans and beaches should see 9 per-cent of travelers, followed by moun-tain areas, 5 percent; and 2 percenteach for lake areas. Theme/amuse-ment parks, and state/national parks.Another 3 percent responded withother and 1 percent said they didn'tknow.

AAA's fuel gauge report is based ondata from the Oil Price InformationService, the nation's most comprehen-sive source for petroleum pricinginformation. Research forThanksgiving holiday travel is basedon a national telephone survey of1,300 adults by the Travel IndustryAssociation of America, which comducts special research for AAA.

AAA Offers Safety Tips For Weathering A Winter StormAREA - With the threat of

the season's first winter stormforecast to arrive, the AAANew Jersey Automobile Cluboffers tips for preparing andhandling your vehicle ininclement weather.

According to AAA's safetyexperts, winter conditions dic-tate the following general dri-ving rules:

Slow down. Everythingtakes longer on slippery roads— accelerating, stopping andturning. Give yourself time tomaneuver by driving slowly.

Increase your scanning andfollowing distances. Driversshould look at least 20 - 30seconds ahead and leave a 4 -6 second gap between yourvehicle and the vehicle in front

of you, especially when travel-ing up a hill. If the vehicle infront of you loses traction andyou're too close to it, you'll beforced to stop and will losetraction too.

Keep your motions slow andsmooth. Avoid abrupt steering,braking or accelerating. Applythe gas slowly to accelerateand take extra time to slow fora stoplight.

Don't stop if you can avoidit. There's a big differencebetween the amount of forceneeded to start moving from afull stop versus the amountneeded to increase speed whilestill rolling. If possible, as youapproach a red light, slowdown and continue rollinguntil it changes.

Don't try to "power" yourway up a hill. Applying extragas on snow covered roads juststarts your wheels spinning.Try to build momentum as youapproach a hill, and let it carryyou to the top, applying onlylight pressure to the accelera-tor.

"If you don't have to besomewhere, stay home," saidPam Fischer, the Club's vicepresident of public affairs."Even if you can drive well inice and snow and your vehicleis ell equipped to handle win-try weather, the same isn'ttrue for everyone else on theroad," she said.

It's also important formotorists to make sure theirvehicles are properly pre-
