SCOTCH PLAINS — Just two months
after the passing of Police Chief Mark
Zyla, Scotch Plains has been shaken yet
again by the sudden death of a public official. Douglas Hansen, the 61-year-old
township attorney, died Friday morning at
Muhlenberg Regional Medical Center in
Plainfield after suffering a heart attack
while shoveling snow outside his local law
office.
A veteran in the courtroom and council
chambers with a lengthy record of volunteer work, Hunsen was remembered this
week for his ioyalty, his intellectual curiosity and his steadfast commitment to public service. But those who worked with him
said as much as he will be missed professionally, he will be missed even more personally, for his caring spirit and warm personality.
"Doug was unique, and he is irreplaceable," said Councilwoman Paulette
Coronato. "(He was) a wonderful, caring,
magnanimous person.,. He genuinely
loved people,"
"It was an absolute privilege to work
with him, but a greater privilege just to be
around him," said Councilman Frank
Rossi.
Hansen's absence hung over Tuesday's
Township Council meeting. Mayor Martin
Marks said some thought had been given
to canceling the meeting, but with an
agreement for the Heather Glen redevelopment project on the agenda — "something Doug put his heart and soul into
over so many years" — the council decided
to proceed.
"He was a very likable and lovable guy
who would go out of his way to do just
about anything for you," Marks said. "His
presence was felt every time he was in the
room... There's an empty place in the room
tonight."

ByANNABOQPANOWICZ
WESTFIELD — Continuing
his challenge of the election
results for Town Council in the
Fourth Ward, Republican candidate Eric Leuthold, has filed an
"order to show cause" seeking a
re-election due to residency questions surrounding three voters,
his attorney Anthony M. Prieto
said this week.
The request comes following a
recount held a few weeks ago
that produced no change in
results, with Democrat Tom
Bigosinski still winning by just
one vote.
The race for the Fourth Ward
was perhaps the closest council
race in Westfield history, with
Bigosinski beating Leuthold
after absentee and provisional
ballots were counted, 1,469 to
1,468. The election results were
re-certified following the recount.
Following
the
recount,
Councilman Jim Foerst, who was
then serving as a spokesman for
Leuthold's campaign said, "In an
election that's decided by one
vote, obviously there's a heightened sense of scrutiny."
Leuthold filed his latest challenge Dec. 8 because of questions
about the residency status of
three voters. The documents ask
that "the clerk of the County of
Union nnd the clerk of the town
of" Westfield refrain from administering the Oath of Office to
Thomas Bigosinski... that purported illegal voters be determined to be ineligible to have
cast ballots in the November 8.
2005 election for Westfield town
councilman... (and that) a new
election be held within a reasonable time and upon reasonable
notice to the respondents herein
and the public at large."
With new council members
.scheduled to be sworn into office
in just two and a half weeks, on
Jan. 3, Prieto said a re-election
would need to be hold quickly.
"They'd have to get to this soon,"
he said.
Leuthold will appear before a
ing at Crescent Avenue Presbyterian
Church in Plainfield. At the council meeting that night, Atkins spoke of Hansen's
commitment to the law, to the taxpayers
and to the town. "He never gave hia second-best. Everything was A-plus with
Doug."
"Part of the heart and soul of the town,"
Atkins said, "has been taken from us."

Cacciola resident makes push for affordable housing
By ANNA BOGMNOWICZ
THE RECORD-PRESS
WESTFIELD — With the town's supply
of affordable family housing steadily
dwindling, replaced by larger, more expensive homes, one local resident has
announced a plan to try to reverse the
trend.
Mary Withers, a founding member of
the Westfield Neighborhood Council, is
seeking support for a plan to build four
new homes for luw-incujne families un the
WNC property., located at 127 Cacciola
Place.
Currently the vice president of the
WNC and herself a Cacciola resident.
Withers has long worked on behalf of residents in the neighborhood, one of the
town's least-affluent areas. The group was
started in 1969 by residents who felt there
was a need for a community group closer
to home to deal with drug and alcohol
abuse, and to provide activities for teens
and seniors. One of the biggest issues now,
she says, is the lack of affordable housing.
Many of the town's less-expensive residential properties have been demolished or
substantially renovated in recent years. In
the neighborhood of Cacciola Place, fires
have also played a role.
"What aggravates me is the town has
not stepped up to bat," she said.
When Withers read in a recent edition
of The Record-Press that developers were
considering building six garden-style
homes in place of four existing multi-family rental units on Cacciola Place, she said
it was the last straw. "People are being
pushed out slowly," she said. Although representatives for the new project have not
yet specified how much the units will sell
for. Withers says she is worried they will
be above the price range for lower income
families, such as the ones who will have to
move out because of the construction. "We
have lost at least 20 families to high-end
rent," she said.
In response. Withers has begun looking
for"'support for her plan. The four attached
units would be built in place of a current
basketball court and playground at the
WNC property, and would include nine
parking spaces.
Withers found an architect who drew
up preliminary plans for the units pro
bona and she has been asking contractors
in the area to provide a cost estimate for
the project. Tuesday night, WNC board
members discussed the proposal with a
grant writer, and they are optimistic about
obtaining federal or state assistance. The
grant writer encouraged the group to promote itself and to meet with town officials
to enlist their support. Withers said a
meeting with town administrator Jim
Gildea .should happen soon, and another

Resident pushes for housing
Lake Ave. hearing continues;
Jerusalem Rd. project approved
(Continued from page A-l)
THfc KECOHD-PKESS
SCOTCH PLAINS — The Planning Board
-approved a subdivision on Jerusalem Kond
and continued to hear testimony about another project on Lake Avenue fit its meeting
Monday night.
In the more contentious application, the
board heard additional testimony about a proposal to divide a single, five-acre lot at 1S>25
Lake Ave. into three lots. Tin- plan lias drawn
intense opposition from neighbors because of
the area's natural setting, including a brook
that runs through the backyards of homes
along the street.
The preferred plan put forth by Northeast
Developers. Inc. calls for one of the lots to hi- a
"flag lot." an interior property accessed by a
long driveway from the street. Flag lots are
not permitted by local ordinance, and the plan
would also require several other variances.
But the developer has also put forth a threelot plan featuring a cui-de sac which would
require no variances, and which the board
would not have authority to reject.
"If the board is tjot inclined to go with the
flag lot, we're going to go forward with the cul
de-sac," said Robert Kraus, attorney for the
applicant.
While the board imiv be forced to choose
between the three-lot plans, neighboring residents made clear Tuesday, as they have at two
earlier hearings, that they would strongly prefer a two-lot plan. Either proposal, they said,
would detract From the area's rural .setting.
"There are amazing things back there that my
kid.s love to go and see," said Helen Sobel. "...
This part of Lake Avenue has a value."
Another neighbor. Deborah Brody, spoke of
deer sleeping in her backyard and described
the area's "serenity and pejicefulness."
Tom Quinn, the board's engineer, also said
he was not yet satisfied with the drainage plan
presented by the applicant, and added more
extensive soil testing wotdd be needed.
But a recently-conducted environmental
impact statement found no basis on which the
board could reject a conforming plan, and
thuugh the local land use ordinance states
that a proposed development must he "suitable" to the surrounding area, the board's consultants said a denial on those grounds could
bit overturned on appeal. So with a three-lot
.subdivision looking likely, the board asked
neighbors which of the plans they would prefer.
Opinion on that issue was divided, though.
Brody, who lives next door, .said she feared the
cul-cle-sac plan would create traffic safety
problems that could put her children in dan-
ger. But Sobei and another neighbor, Michael
Sullivan, said the flag lot plan should be
avoided. "Putting a Hag lot here starts a horrible precedent for our street," said Sullivan.
The hearing on the Lake Avenue proposal
will be continued at the board's Feb. 13 meeting: a decision is possible at that time.
Earlier in the meeting, the board approved
an application for 839 Jerusalem Road, where
owner Joseph DeRose, a local developer,
sought permission to tear down an existing
home and build two in its place. DeRo.se and
his representatives said the project would
replace an older, deteriorating house with two
new residences that are consistent with the
character of the neighborhood. The new homes
will be- similar in style to others DeRose has
built around town, including on nearby Park
Place.
Much of the testimony focused on the
unique characteristics of the property. Located
at the intersection with John Street, across
the street from Scotch Hills Country Club and
next to a building owned by the Arc of Union
County, the lot is shaped like a parallelogram,
with t'he side lot lines diagonal to the road. As
a result, the- new houses themselves will be
turned at an angle to the road. The original
lot. at about 1 1 .(>()() square feet, is also slightIv too .-mall to be split into two conforming
lots: the minimum lot area in the zone is 6,000
square feet.
Partlv as a result of the; lot's characteristics,
several variances were needed, including
exceptions for lot area and lot width at one of
the lots, as well as side and rear yard setback
variances.
But DelioseV representatives, including
Kraus and planner James Watson, said the
two new. "reasonably-sized" houses would be
an improvement on the current condition of
the property, and would also be better than
building one very large new home.
Because the existing home is pushed to the
extreme rear of the property, they said, the
rear setback will be diminished. They also
argued that the only people affected by the
small side yard setbacks will be the people
who purchase the new homes. Watson also snid
that the proposed lot widths — the smaller lot
will be 57 feet across — are "not uncommon in
this area."
The application also got a boost from a
neighbor on John Street, who said the existing
house is "a blight" and added, "Anything would
be better that what's there right now, as long
as it's not really huge1."
The proposal was approved 8-1 by the
Planning Board, with only Michael Michalistn
dissenting. Michalisin said he would have preferred to see a single, larger home.

greatly fear.
"We are very, very much in need

if we were to close our doors it

Currently private donations are
keeping the organization going, but
Withers' hope is that in addition to
replenishing the town's base of
affordable housing, the project can
boost the organization's resources.
In the meantime, Withers,
Cohen, and other neighborhood
council members and residents of
Cacciola Place urge residents to
make donations to keep the center

which really threatens our existence," says Cohen. "We are the

"The Westfield Neighborhood
Council is truly looking to step up,"
said Withers. "We want the public
to realize the seriousness of what is
going on. People are being moved
out and not coming back."
She noted several homes on
Cacriola Place and Stirling Plate
that have burned down and not
been replaced, with the properties
instead sold to higher-income families or businesses. A landscaping
company replaced a home at 131
Cacciola Place that had burned
down, she said.
In particular, Withers has questioned the construction of a residence at 616 and 618 Stirling
Place, which she claims sold for
about $450,000. The site was once
home to an affordable housing unit
supported by the federal Housing
and Urban Development agency,
but it burned down, she said. The
Record-Press was unable to independently verify the site's history
at press time.
Though the Cacciola Place area
is historically black, the issue has
nothing to do with race, said
Withers, but relates to a growing
concern of residents on limited
incomes, including senior citizens,
who wish to remain in Westfield.
Withers said the success of her own
children, who benefited from local
schools, shows the value of living in
a community that has a good school
system. "When people get a good
education, they do better."
Withers and. her supporters —
WNC President Howard Cohen,
active resident and member
Patricia Faggins, community
activist Ralph Prunty and others —
say they are more than willing to
work hard. But the project will
depend on help from the community and outside sources, said
Withers. "We need money."

THE RECORD-PRESS
Committee approves
Heather Glen tax plan
ftyOREGMAAX
THE RECORD-PRESS
SCOTCH PLAINS — The
Township Committee on Tuesday
approved a 30-year tax abatement plan for the Heather Glen
project, bringing to a close the
latest chapter in an initiative
that has spanned nearly two
decades.
The development, to be built
off Jerusalem
Road
near
Brightwood Park, will include 54
age-restricted units. The homes,
priced from S600,000-$650,000,
must be purchased by owners at
least 55 years old, and no residents under the age of 19 will be
allowed in the development.
Work has already begun at the
property, and the developer anticipates closing on 18 ol the homes
in 2006, according to a projected
income statement filed with the
township. The entire project is
expected to generate revenues in
the area of $34 million for the
PRC Group.
Under the terms of the tax
abatement, known as a PILOT
(payment in lieu of taxes) program, the initial tax levy on the
homes will equal 2 percent of the
sale cost. By thsit formula, a home
purchased fo $650,000 would
pay $13,000 in taxes in the first
year, rather than the roughly
$14,000 a similar home outside
the development would be
assessed. Levies on the Heather
Glen homes will increase at the
same rate as local property taxes.
Also, the township will keep most
of the taxes collected, rather than
sharing them with the school district and county.
The township was authorized
bv state law to approve the
PILOT program because the
property has been designated as
an area in need of redevelopment.
Though the abatement has
drawn criticism from some local
residents, no members of the public spoke at a formal hearing

Tuesday before the plan was formally approved, Nonetheless,
local officials again explained the
rationale behind the decision.
Councilman Frank Rossi said
the township1 needed to offer the
"very modest * incentive in order
to bring appropriate development
to the site. Since internal discussions about the tract of land first
began in 1987, the township has
passed on proposals to allow an
assisted-living facility and a 300unit townhouse complex at the
site.
Now, Rossi said, the township
has a project that will add to the
local tax base without creating a
burden for the school system or
adversely affecting the character
of the area. The abatement is "a
very low cost for a tremendous,
tremendous benefit," he said.
Mayor Martin Marks was similarly enthusiastic, describing the
project as "probably one of the
best land-use decisions this
municipality has ever made." He
and Rossi both credited former
elected officials for laying the
groundwork for the project.
Also Tuesday, the committee
approved an ordinance raising
the fees for demolition permits.
The increase was designed to offset the costs incurred by the
Building Department in connection with the ongoing residential
building boom.
Under the new law, the fee for
a demolition permit for one- and
two-family homes will be $1,000,
with $1,000 to be held in escrow
by the township. The fee for demolition of non-residential homes
will be $1,500, with $2,000 held
in escrow. A permit for demolition
of accessory structures, including
sheds, pools and most oil tanks,
will be $100.

Tax abatement
a good deal
As a rule, the granting of tax abatements to private
developers is not something to be encouraged. Though
sometimes necessary to stimulate investment in a longneglected area, abatements and exemptions are too
often doled out gratuitously — often, it appears, to politically connected developers. Abatements are disliked by
taxpayers for good reason — they amount to more money
to people who already have lots of it, and are poised to
make more.
That being said, there is very little to object to about
the 30-year tax abatement plan granted by the Scotch
Plains Township Committee to the PRC Group, the
developers of the Heather Glen project near Brightwood
Park. In recent discussions about the abatement, including a formal public hearing Tuesday night, local officials
have put forth a solid case that the project, and the
financial arrangement, are a good deal for the municipality.
As Councilman Frank Rossi pointed out at Tuesday's
hearing, under the abatement, the owner of a home valued at $650,000 — which is what the high-end units in
the development are expected to sell for — would pay
$13,000 in taxes in the first year. That amounts to a tax
rebate of about $1,000, an amount Rossi fairly characterized as "modest." From that point, taxes on the units
in Heather Glen will rise at the same rate as on other
homes.
But while the deal will offer a modest rebate to homeowners, it will actually lend greater support to municipal coffers Under normal circumstances, a municipality
keeps only about 20 percent of the tax bill, with roughly
60 percent going to the school district and about 20 percent going to the county. But because Heather Glen is a
formal redevelopment site, the township can keep nearly all of the taxes collected from the project. In a town
where local government is relatively allergic to spending, that should translate into savings for existing homeowners. And it's not unfair to the school district, because
no children will be allowed to live in the development.
That's not to say Heather Glen is perfect — with
affordable housing rapidly disappearing, it would have
been good to include at least a few units projected to cost
less than $600,000. But local officials have negotiated a
project that will make appropriate use of a site that's
been neglected for too long, and have done so while protecting the interests of local taxpayers. As Mayor Martin
Marks said, "This is a benefit for everybody,"

it supports have on my neighbors. While the slogan
"two out of every three Wesfielders are helped" may
.seem an unlikely possibility in an affluent town
such as ours, when you analyze the family of agencies whose programs are made possible by I lie
WUW, you realize the validity.
Consider your neighbors with children in Girl or
Boy Scouts, your shut-in neighbor who has a hot
meal delivered, seniors who are transported on the
van made possible by WUW funding, parents able
to use affordable child care, your neighbor with a
disability who needs a health care worker, vour
friend across the street who has a child with cerebral palsy, or programs in youth leadership development. The list of programs for our 20 member
agencies goes on and on. It takes a collection of
funding for any agency to survive, and WUW dollars are critical to the budgets of our agencies,
1 am proud to be a trustee, and 1 am proud of
what WUW does for our community. I hope all
Westfielders will pilch in to help support this worthy organization.

Salvation Army asks: Don't stop giving
To The Record-Press:
This has been one of the busiest and most devastating hurricane seasons in recent history. The
outpouring of compassion, support and prayers
has been nothing short of awe-inspiring. I'd like to
sincerely thank our generous donors for their
support of The Salvation Army's relief efforts on
the Gulf Coast. In New Jersey alone, donor support for the Army's relief effort amounted to more
than S3 million which in part has helped to assist
more than 1,260,000 hurricane victims.
And as we move into the holiday season, I'd
like to ask for your continued support of the
Salvation Armv. Inevitably, giving declines after a
major disaster, but our local needs do not. I'd like
to ask for your continued support from our donors
when encountering our red kettle bell ringers or
when receiving a mail solicitation. It is only with
the public's support that we will be able to continue our programs fur the needv in our communities.
Once again, thank you for your support of the
Gulf Coast hurricane victims and please help the
Salvation Army as we enter a critical fund-raising
season thnt supports our programs nil throughout
the year.

So, it's that time ofyear
again.
The time to spread holiday
cheer, make snow angels,
share the gift of giving, light
candles, decorate trees and usher in a new year.
Between the television spc-,

light and signpost in downtowns, it's a season that's supposed to fill you with warmth, '
cheer and happiness.
But, and maybe it's because
I haven't yet hung a single
light or dug my Christmas
tree out of the closet (is it

and all the other nuances of '
holiday planning adding irritations to my daily routine,
Fin not feeling that it's the
season of good will and kindness and whatever else Linus
preached about during "A
Charlie Brown Christmas."
It truly is n season of all
those things on Linus's list,
but 'tis also the season of a lot
of other things that Hallmark
fails to highlight.

'Tis the season of women

And 'tis the season of me
dragging my sister to the mall
on Dec. 2-4 for an Olympian
display of shopping that would
make the creators of
"Supermarket Sweep" blush.
But despite it all — the bad
traffic, the cold, painful
remakes of Christmas carols
— I look forward to traveling
hack home for the holiday. All
the headaches and aggravations will be worth it once I'm
having dinner with my family,
sharing stories, sitting around

WHS drama explores life under Nazi occupation
ByANNAMMOANOWKZ
THE RECORD-PRESS
WESTFIELD — This weekend,
Weatfield High School will present a fall
drama that is designed to leave audiences educated, entertained, and ultimately moved — and that has already
had that effect on the students who will
bring the story to life.
Ghetto, written by Israeli playwright
Joshua Sobol, is the story of a theater
company in the Jewish ghetto in Viina,
Lithuania, while the city was under
Nazi occupation during World War II.
Based on diaries from camp personnel,
the play shows how a theater group
responds to despair with song, satire
and criticism of the Nazi regime. The
"play within a piny" contains actual
songs sung in the ghetto and was
inspired by a real historical theater
which operated from 1942-1943.
Many of the students said they had a
tough time making it through practices,
but added it was important to pay
respect to the millions of Jews and others killed in the Holocaust.
"My family was killed in the ghetto,"
said a teary-eyed Natalie Narotzky, a
junior who plays the clarinet in the production. Narotzky said the play was
very difficult for her, but that she felt it
was important for her to take part in it.
WESTFIELD — The
Westfield Memorial Library
will be continuing its holiday
festivities with activities for
young and old alike.
If you enjoyed the
Christmas and Hanukkah
Storytime, don't miss upcoming Kwanzaa stories and
activities for families with
children ages 3 and older.
Residents are invited to join
the library staff for Kwanzaa
stories at 7 p.m. Dec, 27.
Following last week's
"Holiday Celebration with
Charles Dickens," the library
has two more upcoming programs for adults: the
"Celebration of Lights" on Dec.
23 and "Kwanzaa: the Harvest
Holiday" on Dec. 30, both at
1:30 p.m. These light-hearted
discussions are a fun and
informative way to get into
the holiday spirit and learn
something new about the holidays.
In non-holiday-related
events, the library has the following program planned for
adults:
TGIF: A W Coward: Mad
Dogs and Englishmen.
Celebrate the life and times of
this famous composer, actor
and wit at 1:30 p.m. Dec. 16.
Also Friday, there will be a
free blood pressure screening
from noon-1 p.m. The screening will be hosted by the
Westfield Regional Health
Department.
In addition, the Children'*
Chess Club at the library will
soon be expanding its hours.
"Winter is a perfect time for
us to make this popular program a weekly, rather than
monthly event," said Kathy
Muhm, Head Children's
Librarian.
Starting in January and
continuing through March,
children ages 12 and under
are invited to play chess at
the library every Saturday
morning between 10 a.m. and
noon.
In the program, children
are paired with others of similar ages and abilities to enjoy
recreational non-competitive
play. All participants must be

Behind businesses doors, artistic talent flourishes
By TINA PERROTTA
COKHESPONDENT
CRANFORD — Quietly sitting on a
busy street, the house at 208 North Ave.
is not decorated in bright colors or intricate architectural designs. Its artistic
appeal actually lies within its walls —
with the talents of the people who work
there every clay.
Hidden behind thick shrubbery, the
building is home to OSP Digital and
Traditional Photography, a photography
business specializing in culinary marketing, and Wagner Photography, which specializes in medical nnd pharmaceutical
advertising.
Though the businesses are active on n
daily basis, on special occasions a crowd
will gather behind the building for one of
the most unusual and interesting art
.shows in Cranford. Every staffer at 208
North Ave. has a creative outlet, and
every so often they will invite the public
to sec their creations during an exhibit.
Their1 most recent exhibit ivas held last
Friday and Saturday.
"I've been taking up photography
since I was n child." said Karen Nardo of
Wagner Photography, while holding a
photo of an abandoned railroad bridge
in iWshanic Station. "But mostly I've
been shooting a lot of'pictures ufi my
town because people arc really looking
tor them."
Dozens of her pictures featuring the
Somerset County village and the surrounding countryside were on display
over the weekend. Nardo was selling
home-made postcards, along with 8-by11 and larger prints of the bucolic town.
She markets her small-town photography under the name KN Photography.
The talents of Nardo's colleague Bill
Wagner run in a different direction,
toward the creation of original jewelry.
"This was a creative outlet for me," said
Wagner, sitting at his work desk with
dozens of pieces of silver before him.
"You can make anything, you can
form it just like you do with clay."
Wagner said. He uses a material that is
made of pure silver with a little bit of
binder. Once put in n kiln, the binder
will burn off, leaving behind the silver.
"My son came home from art school and
said, 'You have to try this,' so I did. I've
been doing it ever since," he snid.
His son Brett, standing behind his
father, handed him a sculpting tool. "I
knew he was going to like it," he said. An
art .school graduate, Brett took a job
after college at Bullseye Glass in
Port In nd. Ore. Several years later, lie
now combines the skills he acquired at
the company with the techniques he
learned at art school to create pieces of
unique glassware. Wagner fuses layered
glass sheets in a kiln.
At OSP, Diane Metz finds her creative
outlet by making stained-glass jewelry. "I
cut it out, grind it and then it goes into
the kiln," she said. "That's what gives
each piece that nice, smooth look." Metz
creates larger pieces of stained glass
including jewelry boxes, lanterns and
wind chimes. Her .smaller pieces, such as
jewelry, are scraps from bigger projects.
Metz's sister Susan Bruno, also of
OSP, has been making glass bead jewelry and other bended, metal and ceramic
items, for four years. Like all the staff
members at Wagner Photography and
OSP, Metz uses one of five kilns on site
to make her creations.
Just a few feet away at the exhibit
was Peggy Holian of PoorHousc
Antiques, who spends her time finding
and fixing large pieces of metal furniture.
Finding metal furniture is rare, said
Holian, but refinishing it and reselling it
is an even more unique process. Holian
prefers antique metal furniture .such as
bread trays, hat stands and coffee tables
that she finds at flea markets and
garage sales. She takes them homo,
strips the paint, grinds the pieces and
then snnds nnd polishes them back to
new.
"It takes awhile," she said. "But my
mother collected antiques and we refinishod them. I've been collecting antiques
for years. I like the metal pieces."

The Kenilworth Public Library
will host a program featuring
award-winning New Jersey mystery writer David White at 7:30
p.m. Jan. 5 in the library's activity
room.
A story by White, "God's Dice,"
is to included in the soon-to-bereleased anthology The Adventure
of the Missing Detective: And 25 of
the Year's Finest Crime and
Mystery Stories]
"God's Dice" features the New
Jersey-based PI Jackson Donne as
he investigates a woman's disappearance on behalf of a local
priest. The PI travels from confessional booths to casinos and seedy
hotel rooms and ultimately must
deal with issues that go way
beyond the facts of a missing-person case. The roster of other
authors with stories in the upcoming anthology includes such notables as Joyce Carol Oates, Laura
Lippman, Jeffrey Deaver and
Robert Barnard.
Although only 26 years old,
White has been writing for more
than 15 years, having published
his first story when he was in the
fourth grade. He has already
written 15 other short stories,
most of which feature PI Jackson
Donne. His stories have appeared
in such magazines and e-zines as
Crime Spree, Thrilling Detective,
Shots UK, Handheld Crime,
Shred of Evidence, and Hardluck
Stories. His story "Closure" won
the Derringer Award in 2003, and
"God's Dice" as well as another
story, "Down to the River," were
Leon Redbone will perform in Rahway
Tickets are on sale now for Jan. 21 concert at the Union County Arts Center
On Jan. 21, Leon Redbone,
the eccentric and eclectic New
York musician who has devoted his career to injecting now
life into the blues, jazz, vaudeville, ragtime and folk traditions of the roaring 1920s,
1930s and 1940s, will take the
stage at the Union County
Arts Center in Rahway.
Redbone's baritone croon
and yodel and his nostalgic
orchestrations (heavy on the
strings and horns) make fun of
the theatrical, sentimental and
pompous stylos of the past, but
at the same time reveal what
was precious and is forever
lost from that era.
For a man whose music
seems timeless, Leon Redbone
prefers to immerse himself in
the here and now. On
AnyTime, Redbone's 11th
record and his first for the
Blue Thumb label, the wingerguitarist continues his love
affair with tunes from the
turn-of-the-century, flapper-era
radio ditties, deprossionspnwncd ragtime and fofk-jazz.
Yet there is always something
oddly modern about this musician — his lyrical satire and
Italian
Coniincntiil
Cuisine
emotional cynicism tend to
wear well with any generation.
Since his 1975 Warner
Brothers gold record debut On
the Truck, Redbone has defied
other people's expectations
while consistently building up
his own myth. Beyond what he
has exposed through his
music, the artist prefers to
reveal nothing else. There is
no consensus on how he first
flirted with — and eventually
came to personify — the vast
styles associated with the
gramophone era.
Tickets are $2f> and may bo
purchased by calling (732)
499-8226 or online by visiting
the website at www.lJCAC.org.
Wonderful I'lit

Atmosphere
Tickets may also be purchased
in person at the Ticket Central
Box Office, located at the corner of 1601 Irving St. and
Central Ave., Railway.
The Arts Center provides
barrier-fret' access and seating
for its patrons upon request.

Internet stories of 2004.
In the introduction in the
upcoming anthology, author Sarah
Weinman describes White as "one
of the rising stars in the crime fiction short story world" and someone whose stories offer "excellent
plot, strong characterization, and
a thoughtful voice"; she says of
"God's Dice" that "like all good stories, it leaves the protagonist in a
different place from where he
began."
According to White, his attraction to the mystery genre is largely based on character development. "When characters are
pushed to the brink — as they
often arc in mysteries — that's
when I want to know about them.
Everyone shops at a supermarket,
but how many people deal with
murder?" said White during a
recent interview.
White lives in Clifton and
teaches eighth grade language
arts at the Christopher Columbus
Middle School in that city. He has
signed on with the Scotland-based
literary agent Allen Guthrie and
Jenny Brown Associates and is in
the process of shopping his novel,
When One Man Dies.

Singer releases holiday album
Robert Parker's photographs of New Jersey, including the bucolic rural scenes shown here, will be featured In an exhibit at the Donald B. Palmer Museum In Springfield beginning next month.
Exhibit features scenes of NJ
The photographs of Robert A.
Parker of Nutley will be featured in "New Jersey Images," a
new exhibit at the Donald B.
Palmer Museum in Springfield,
from Jan. 9 to Feb. 16, 2006.
In the exhibit, which
includes more than 25 photographs, Parker's subject matter
varies from natural habitats to
man-made architecture, from
athletic events to still life, from
quiet portraits to birds or animals to blurred action.
Locations range from Giants
Stadium to Cape May, from
Sussex County in winter to
summer at the Jersey Shore,
and from Ramapo to Nutley to
Clinton.
"This is the first time in my
18 exhibits that I have grouped
New Jersey images together,"
said Parker. "It is truly refreshing to realize the variety of photographic subjects we have here
in the Garden State.
Occasionally, I like to capture
an entire scene, and take
advantage of the weather or the
light. But more often I employ
close-up or zoom lenses to isolate an eye-catching pattern,
both those created in nature
and those created by man."
"My objective," Parker added,
"is to present work that invites
contemplation, with the viewer
discovering more and more in
the image with each given
moment."
Parker has exhibited in many
group shows, including juried
shows at the Photography
Forum in Watchung; Gallery
214, Montclair; and the Arthur
Griffin Center for Photographic
Art, Winchester, Mass. Other
group shows have been at
Gallery West, Court Plaza
South, Hackensack; the Bergen
Museum of Art & Science;
Children's Specialized Hospital,
Mountainside, the Meadowlands
Center for the Arts, Rutherford;
and the Kodalux Gallery,

Deathtrap on Saturday and
Sunday from 1-4 p.m. in the WCP
theater at 1000 North Avenue
West, Westfield. For more information, call (908) 232-9568.
Play rehearsals will start in
early January for performances
on March 4, 10, 11, 17 and 18,
2006.
In the play, the suspense
builds as Clifford Anderson sends
his mentor Sidney Bruhl a copy
of his first attempt at playwriting. The play, Deathtrap, is so
perfect in its construction that
Sidney schemes to steal the
script and market it as his own.
But shortly after Clifford arrives,
it's not clear who is double crossing who to become the toast of
Broadway.
The cast requirements are as
follows:
Sidney Bruhl (The Writer):
Anywhere from 45 to 65. Very
sharp "British-style" wit. Must
be able to project a sense of fun
on stage, even when things are
going very wrong.
Myra Bruhl (Sidneys Wife I: 45

(due to heart condition), very
sweet, self-effacing lady who
loves Sydney very much.
Clifford Anderson (The Young
Writer): 20's. Athletic looking.

beginning and, later, very menacing. He also needs to be able to
have fun on stage.

WESTFIELD — In early
December of 1989, the charter
members of the newly formed
Westfieid Optimist Club were looking for a special project to benefit
the community. It was the late Bill
DiLouie who, on the spur of the
moment and along with a few colleagues, started assembling baskets
of food to distribute to needy families in town a few days before
Christmas. That year, they passed
out 45 baskets, and a tradition was
born.
Holiday food baskets are now
the Optimists' oldest project. Since
that first inspired and hastily
arranged effort, the club has delivered some 850 baskets, according to
the estimate of this year's club pres-
ident, Jeffrey Feldman. "And the 75 bles, fruit and dessert. Kings of
we will provide this year, our 17th," Garwood fills and assembles all the
says Feldman, "will take us over boxes for much less than what the
contents actually cost. The club has
900 meals."
The club's community budget also been supported by several

The truth about genetics and weight loss
Rehabilitation Center
Tall and short, dark and light,
freckled and tanned, we come in
myriad packages with myriad features, most of them determined
by our genetics before we ever
draw breath. Very few of these
traits can we control, and we just
have to play the hand we're dealt.
But when people are earnestly
trying to lose weight and failing
again and again, many ultimately
get the sneaking suspicion that
they really are playing against a
stacked deck. They may be right.
For some people who struggle
with their weight, it seems that

CAN ANKLE SPRAINS LEAD TO ARTHRITIS?
It has long been known that ankle
arthritis often occurs after a fracture to
the joint. However, it was still debated as
to whether recurrent ankle sprains alone,
without a fracture, can also lead to arthritis. Now, new research indicates that
ankle sprains seem to boost (he risk of
developing painful osteoarthritis in the
joint, the finding suggests that intensive
rehabilitation is needed after chronic
ankle instability or sprains to help ward
off the chronic degenerative joint disease. This is not the first study to suggest
the ankle sprain-and-arthritis link.
Previous research has shown that lateral
ankle instability (involving the outer ligaments) could cause ankle arthritis. The

any given exercise effort will yield
far less result than it offers anyone else, because of what's
already coded on their DNA.
Recently, researchers have
identified specific combinations of
genes that appear to correlate
very strongly with fat retention
independent of, even in spite of,
exercise.
In a very closely-controlled,
year-long study with postmenopausal women, researchers
divided the participants into an
exercise intervention group and a
control group.
All the subjects were carefully
selected for specific features of
their health and lifestyle. Various
lab tests were taken, including
certain genetic tests. The subjects
were all instructed not to change
their dietary habits. The control
group was assigned a moderate
stretching regimen to use over
the course of the study, and the
intervention group was given a
moderate intensity, 45-minute
workout for five days a week, initially with supervision. There
was detailed tracking, because
the researchers were especially
interested in identifying distinctions between genetic and environmental factors.
At the end of the study period,
the researchers found a distinct
variability in the amount of fat
lost by some exercisers that could

not be explained by their adherence levels. So the researchers
looked to the genetic data, and
indeed, there were two specific
genes that stood out related to
patterns of fat loss and exercise.
Participants with certain combinations of those genes and their
variants had significantly different fat loss outcomes.
The complex science at this
level can be pretty confusing.
Genes are named with different
alpha-numeric codes and so are
their variant alleles. If you're not
careful, you can enji up in some
real alphabet soup just trying to
talk about it, but basically two
genes are involved here, the
CYP19 and the COMT.
They found that having one
CYP19 gene and its variants was
not consistently associated with
percentage fat, total fat, subcutaneous fat or intra-abdominal fat,
that dangerous excess that gathers around our vital organs. But
having two such genes correlated
to a slightly larger decrease in
body mass index, and a significantly larger decrease in total fat
and percentage of body fat.
And having a particular genotype of the COMT gene, together
with at least one copy of the
CYP19 gene, also related to a significantly larger decrease in BMI,
total fat and percentage of body
fat. There were corresponding
intermediate combinations and
results that bore out the relationships.
Interestingly, in the exercising
group, those with a specific variant of the CYP19 gene lost more
fat over the year, but in the nonworkout group, those with that
same variant gained more fat.
Why and how these genes
affect the fat/exercise relationship
isn't yet understood, but now that
these have been identified as significant, they are the subject of
much new, focused study. Other
research has since showed that
women with that specific CYP19
variant have higher concentrations of the hormones estrono and
estradiol, which may make them
more resistant to fat loss through
exercise.
The important thing is that
this research shows that the calories-in, calories-out explanations
about body weight are just too
simplistic and don't account for
many very real variables that
have nothing to do with will or
self-restraint.
That said, people shouldn't
assume that they're genetically
precluded from ever being thin
and healthy.
So if you're one of those with
the bad hand, don't give up! A
dietary and weight management
program could be tailored to
address your very specific needs
in order to get and keep your
weight in check. Because getting
dealt a bad hand doesn't doom
you to losing the game — it just
moans you need a different strategy for winning it.

After compiling the greatest
season in school history, Scotch
Plains Fanwood Swimming coach
Jess Hulnik realizes her girl's
team lias a tough act to follow,
but with almost all the key members returning the Raiders may
be ready for an encore. On
Saturday December 3, the
Haiders passed their first test of
the young season when thev outlasted West field 92-78 before an
overflow crowd at the Westfield
YMCA.
Thi? victory was extra significant because evun though the
Raiders won the first state championship in school history last
year, they were unable to
outscore the Blue Devils in three
tries, dropping their dual meet,
finishing behind them in the
Pirate Invitational and tying
them in the Union County tournament. Defeating their long
time nemesis was a great confidence booster according to
Hulnik.
"I am pleased with the way the
girls performed so early in the
season." said Hulnik. "It was a
close meet and Westfield is such
a strong team."
With such a strong team,
Hulnik hns scheduled ambitiously and realizes there are many
roadblocks abend.
"It's a long season and we will
be swimming several very good
teams including Britlgewnter and
Hillshorough as well as the
Pirate Invitational where we will
compete against teams like
Bishop Ahr, Mount Saint Mary's,
West-Windsor Plainsboro, and
Westfield,' said Hulnik.
Lending tho triumph against
Westfield with double victories
wee the teams' two most accomplished swimmers, sophomore
Melissa Helock and junior Jillinn
Murphy.
Helock burst on the scene a
year ago by becoming the first
Raider in five years to win an
individual event at the prestigious Pirate Invitational with a
victory in the 200-yard freestyle.
She is also one of the .states best
in the 500-yard freestyle and has
the versatility to dominate in the
200-ynrd individual medley,
Murphy »B a powerful sprinter,
who is nenrly unbeatable in the
50 yard nnd 100 yard freestyle
races.
"While at times 1 may lean
more towards the sprints with
Jillinn, and the distance free, fly
and IM with Melissa, both of
these girls are very versatile and
enn pretty much go anywhere in
the line-up," said Hulnik.
Junior Brittany Lnrkin sav^d
some of her best performances a
year ago in the freestyle events
for the state tournament and
looks better than ever this year.
Sophomore Beeua Fox was one of
the heroes in the state semi
finals against Mountain Lakes
by winning the 100-meter breastroke and 200-meter individual
medley IJMJ. Sophomore Mary
Henkels is the top returning back
stroker and also is an excellent
sprinter. Sophomores Erin Rossi
and Kate Johnson add depth to a
variety of events
"I feel very confident in our
team's ability to cover every
stroke nnd distance," said
Hulnik.
Although most of the Raiders'
stars are sophomores and juniors
they took to the two senior cocaptains

Hulnik takes a guarded stance!
"Hopefully, but it's pretty hard to

happy to equnl Inst year's success, but it won't be easy."

Windshield safety
can't be neglected
(ARA) - Windshield replacement safety, an issue often overlooked by American motorists, has now drawn the attention and
support of one of the country's most recognized consumer advocates.
In early November, Ralph Nader called on the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration to issue a consumer advisory on "the
importance of windshield integrity, the relationship to roof strength
and rollover crashes, proper replacement procedures and (industry
replacement) standards" to create a more informed motoring public.
"We welcome Mr. Nader's interest, and support his call for the
federal government to issue a consumer advisory," said Leo Cyr,
vice president, auto glass division of the National Glass
Association, and executive director of the association's Coalition for
Auto Glass Safety and Public Awareness (CASPA). "More than 10
million Americans replace damaged windshields every year without giving a thought to the skill of the person replacing their windshield."
In a 2004 survey of consumers by CASPA, 82 percent of respondents cited windshield safety as important, but no one could identify even one of the crucial roles the windshield plays in a vehicle's
safety system. In fact, modern automobile design relies heavily on
the windshield for structural roof support during a rollover crash.
The windshield is also critical in proper airbag deployment.
Improper replacement of a windshield can also cause the glass to
detach from the vehicle in a crash, allowing occupants to be ejected
from the passenger compartment.
Nader's letter to the NHTSA's acting director, Jacqueline
Glassman, states, "... motorists should be assured that the roof
strength of a vehicle on the road today is not unnecessarily compromised as the result of a windshield replacement."
"Dangerous shortcuts" such as "inappropriate adhesive applications, shortened drive-away times and improper glass handling
techniques" result in "an unknown number of weak windshield
installations which will not even protect occupants from the first
impact in the first half roll," Nader's letter says.
Although investigative media reports have documented unsafe
windshield replacements, "accurate estimates of injuries due to
deficient windshield installation are unavailable due to the highly
specific nature of this uncollected data," Nader states.
"No one knows precisely how often replaced windshields? fail in
crashes," Cyr said. "What we do know is unsafe windshield replacement is a risk factor that could be eliminated through greater consumer awareness. When consumers know they have reason to be
concerned that their windshield be replaced properly and professionally, they will use that knowledge to recognize and reject service providers who use the 'dangerous shortcuts' to which Mr.
Nader refers."
The National Glass Association recommends two quick steps to
ncrease your windshield safety awareness. First, read the indusry's Auto Glass Replacement Safety Standard at www.ogrss.com.
Second, select an auto glass replacement company that offers technicians certified by NGA. For help finding a certified technician in
your area, or additional information on windshield replacement
afety, visit either www.myautoglass.org or www.glass.org.

A new car
and much,
much more
r. Larry S
ery of hit brand-new 2006
Chevrolet Corvette convertible,
which he ordered through New
Norris Chevrolet, located In
Westfield. Dr. Seitzman selected
the option of Corvette museum
delivery. This option let's the
customer take a tour of the
Corvette assembly plant and the
Corvette museum in Bowling
Green, Kentucky, then drive a
brand-new Corvette home. The
trip marked Dr. Seitzman's second trip to the museum. Asked
what he thinks about the museum, he said, "It's great, they really take care of you. They go over
your vehicle from top to bottom,
and the tour is fantastic. It took
about two hours to go through,
and the guys at Norris Chevrolet
are just as good." The Corvette
museum option costs $490. For
more Information, call New
Norris Chevrolet, "your hometown dealership."
With a little care, you can still go in the snow
By BOBBY HAMILTON
NASCAR TRUCK HBR1KS CHAMPION
(NAPSI) — Getting ready for
winter weather can help take
the worry out of winter driving.
With a little work, you can
drive more confidently on icy
roads, and you'll be ready if you
get stuck in the snow. And
remember, if conditions are too
hazardous, the best bet is to
stay off the road.
Follow these basic guidelines
to enjoy a safer ride:
— Go under the hood and
make sure your car is in proper
working order. Check the battery, brakes, lights/hazards,
heater and defroster. Also, check
the fluid level on your wipers
and antifreeze.
— Pack it up: Pack emergency supplies for the road, just
in case you get stuck. The
National
Highway
Traffic
Safety Administration suggests
you have a flashlight, jumper
cables, shovel, snow brush, ice
scraper, warning devices (such
as flares), blankets and a small
bag of sand or cat litter to gencrate traction under wheels.
And for long trips, it's a good
idea, to bring food and water.
— Plan ahead: Allow plenty
of time so you're not in a rush.
Watch television or listen to
radio reports for the latest
weather conditions. Try to travel in daylight hours and let oth-
ers know the route you're taking.
— Buy good winter tires:
While all-weather radials are
fine in some areas, other locations require chains or snow
tires with studs for safe driving.
Make sure your tires have
enough tread life. The Rubber
Manufacturers Association suggests placing a penny, Lincoln
head down, in the tread groove.
Consider buying new tires if you
can see all of Lincoln's head.
You may alao be able to save
if you buy tires or other equipment through a service such as
AutoVantage. Members of this
organization can often save
from 5 to 20 percent on car care
at some 19,000 service locations. To learn more, visit
www.autovantage.com or call
(800) 876-7787.
— Gas up: Keep your gas
tank at least half full to keep
from running out of gas if you
get stuck.
— If you get stuck, stay put.
If your car gets stuck in ice or
snow, stay in your vehicle. Don't
leave the car to search for assistance unless help is visible within 100 yards.
Bobby Hamilton is the current NASCAR Craftsman Truck
Series Champion after achieving
four career NASCAR Winston
Cup Scries victories. He is also a
spokesman for AutoVantage.
