From the Mayors Desk
Mayor Rob Greenbaum
s I sit here and remember the events of September 11, 2001, I pause to reflect on all those who have given their lives for the
freedoms we all enjoy. This morning, thanks to Father Joe, the municipal employees joined me in a moment of reflection and prayer top commemorate that tragic day in American history. I also paused to remember those members of the Mount Olive Community who left us since the last time I wrote this column. I am sure I speak for all of Mount Olive that our hearts and prayers are with those who lost loved ones this summer. On a happier note, I am so very pleased at the progress
we have made in a very short timeframe to improve Mount Olive. The turf soccer field dedication was humbling. The lights on the football field are amazing. The continued lengthening of the trail system at Turkey Brook is invigorating. The beautification of our roadways and neighborhoods are the next areas where we are likely to see major improvements through increased zoning enforcement, as well as municipal/private landscaping partnerships. We are committed to keeping the
positive momentum moving forward. I wanted to highlight two events which are upcoming through the recreation department. On September 30, 2012, the Township is sponsoring the use of bicycles in Mount Olive. In aid of that effort, I proclaimed September 30, 2012 as bicycle day in our town.
JOAN SIRKIS LAVERY, ESQ.
Whether participating in the formal programs such as the 28.61 mile Tour de Mount Olive, the 5 mile family ride, bike safety program or just on your own, I encourage all to get out and ride on that date. The second event, occurring later in the fall is the Raiders of the Lost Park mud run which should be a blast. I encourage you to
visit the Township website to view all of the planned activities and encourage all to participate. Mt. Olive is a great town with fantastic opportunities. You simply need to participate to take advantage of all that we offer. Sincerely, Rob Greenbaum Mayor, Mount Olive Township

Italian Market/Bakery Opens Up Close To Home

pared daily; everything is made in house. Its a great atmosphere; very friendly people. Opened seven days a week, Lepores Italian Market offers a full service deli with sandwiches and Paninis filled with imported Italian cold cuts, meats and cheeses and olives. There are bistro tables to eat in for lunch, carryout and a full-catering menu. Customers can buy imported goods from the full grocery section featuring Italian pastas, olive oils and tomatoes, as well as beverages from Italy. Half of the market is a full Italian bakery with fresh pastries made in house, cakes to order and cannolis. All baking is done on premises except for the bread, which comes from Lepores uncles bakeries in Carney and Clifton. For take out, customers can order meals to go and specials of the day, like fresh ravioli. Lepores most popular items are the hot soups, such as pasta fagioli; rice balls, stuffed peppers made with red, yellow and orange peppers stuffed with risotto rice, sausage and fresh mozzarella; and two kinds of lasagna: Italian - made with three separate sauces and no ricotta; and American- traditional meat lasagna and ricotta; seafood salad; stuffed breads; and assorted sausages made in-house. As a first-time owner of an Italian market, Lepore has a lifetime of experience when it comes to the bakery business. Lepore grew up working in the bakery business with two generations on his mothers side running the family business- Carney Brothers Bakery in Carney. Lepores father was born in Sicily, Italy, and his mother is from Cosenza in Calabria, Italy. Both immigrated to Newark in 1955. Involved in the family business Since I could walk, Lepore says I started making money when I was 12 working weekends and holidays at the family bakery. I was in charge of bread making, says Lepore, making breads, pastries and donuts. He helped out until he was 25, when he
By Cheryl Conway inding a local delicious Italian market has been hard to come by until recently.
Lepores Italian Market on Route 206 South in Flanders just opened this past June offering customers a full service deli, grocery section with imported goods, beverages from Italy and a bakery. It is the only Italian market of its kind in the area. We put a lot of love and care into our food, says Mike Lepore, 43, president of Lepores Italian Market. Our food is pre-
decided to attend RETS Institute for Electronics in Nutley. After getting a degree in electronics, Lepore realized working in electronics wasnt for me. Instead, he opened his own construction businessLepores Roofing and Construction- which he stopped running two years ago. Surrounded by several Italian bakeries and delis while living in Essex County, Lepore and his wife, Nicole, had a dream to open up their own Italian market/bakery one day. Its always been a passion of my wife and I, says Lepore. This is a dream of ours. There was no restaurant like this out here. You move west, you dont have the same quality breads or Italian foods, he says. They chose Mt. Olive to open up their market because Lepore says its a good community. We found this place; we really liked it. It seemed perfect. Besides offering a great selection in Italian specialties, customers will appreciate the cleanliness at Lepores. As a health inspector for the past 15 years, Nicole knows what it takes to provide a sanitary environment for her customers. Its one of the cleanest places youll ever eat, says Lepore. Hours are Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.; Saturdays, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.; and Sundays, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

decided a couple of weeks ago that I was going to put two lamps in my house on timers so that they'd turn on and off at certain times of the night and early morning. I have a large home and there's one section I don't go into very often, primarily because I've consolidated my living conditions to the other side of the house. My goal was to simulate the presence of someone else in my house, which is a very good way to deter wannabe burglars and generally increase your home security. Here's how I did it. First, I put together a plan that I felt would simulate the habits of an older personlike a parentand a younger per-
Lamp Timers For Extra Home Security

sonperhaps a younger child. Decided to use two lamps in adjoining rooms. The first thing to simulate was what might actually transpire each night before bedtime. So I set both lamps to come on mid-evening, with one shutting off about an hour before the other. I decided this would look like a child going to bed, and sometime later the parent retiring for the night. The next time the lamps come on is around 1:00am. I have set the lamp that shut off first to come one, figuring a young child might get up at night to use the restroom or even go into his parent's room. One minute later I have the other lamp turning on. They are only on for a couple of minutes each, and essentially shut off at the same time. The third time they come on is in the morning. I have the lamp in the "parent's" room come on around 6:00am, and the one in the "child's" room about an hour later. This is a pretty good approximation of a morning ritual between a parent and a child. I have both lamps shutting off as daybreak sun turns into morning. This was actually very easy to do. I had never used timers before, but I quickly discovered there are several different types, including very inexpensive manual timers on up to moderately priced digital timers that control 7 different on-off periods. I chose a couple of digital timers right in the
middle that would control three separate onoff periods. Digital timers are simple to use, come with very intuitive instructions, and in about ten minutes I had finished setting up the onoff periods for the first lamp. The 2nd lamp took me only a couple of minutes as I didn't have anything new to learn. I feel like my house is much safer than it was a couple of weeks ago. I still arm my monitored security system each night, but I decided there was nothing wrong with simulating more activity in my house than there actually is. Living alone doesn't have to mean becoming an easy target for burglars.

ew Jersey parents suffering with finding ways to pay for their childrens college education can finally get the solutions to their college funding problems. Most families who earn $75,000 or more and own a home assume they are not eligible for financial aid. However, most families with income over $100,000 are actually eligible for some types of need based financial aid. They simply need to know how to get their fair share. According to Newell, there are several easy things parents can do to substantially increase the amount of money they get from colleges. For example, There are several schools that historically give better financial aid packages than others, says Newell. If families do proper income and asset planning before filling out the forms, they can increase eligibility by thousands of dollars. Newell offers a few simple tips to parents with college funding problems. If a

parent has only half an hour to end their college funding problems, I would suggest the following: 1. Make sure they do not over-value their home on the financial aid forms 2. Try not to save money in the childs name as it weighs more heavily than the parents savings 3. Dont be afraid to negotiate with a college for a better financial aid package. Newell offers New Jersey parents with college funding problems a free booklet that explains the 9 most common college funding problems and solutions.

Old Church Restored for Future Museum/Chapel

buried in the cemetery behind the Mt. Olive Baptist Church, says Murphy, several who are revolutionary and civil war veterans. Its really the core of the communitys history, she says. Although a lot of the headstones are missing or degraded, Murphy says the earliest legible headstone at the cemetery is 1812. Founded in 1753, the Mt. Olive Baptist Church was formed by a group called the Rogerines- a small splinter group of men and women from the Morristown Baptist Church who moved into Mt. Olive and had different ideas and ideological issues, according to Murphy. Mining in the area attracted the group to move west. In 1970, the congregation built and relocated to a new church on FlandersDrakestown Road, located next to the municipal building and called the Mt. Olive Community Bible Church. They outgrew the building, says Murphy. The Mt. Olive Baptist Church was an old small church with no room to expand, says Murphy. They needed a bigger church with more parking, a bathroom and modern facilities. Mt. Olive Township acquired the old church building in 2003 and started the process of getting it recognized as a histori-
By Cheryl Conway here is a new old church in town that may be used down the road by the community as a wedding chapel, gatherings and a historic place to visit. The Mt. Olive Baptist Church located on the corner of Flanders-Drakestown and Mt. Olive roads in Flanders is being restored to help preserve the history of Mr. Olive. Founded in 1753, the structure is the eighth oldest Baptist church in New Jersey. The Mt. Olive Historical Society has received grant money through the Morris County Historical Preservation Trust to help fund the cost to restore the building, which had been used as a place of worship until 1970. Identifying old buildings in town and preserving them helps to maintain the towns history. Kathy Murphy, grant coordinator of Mt. Olive and corresponding secretary of the MO Historical Society, says we have a lot of old buildings and only a few have gone through the process of being identified as historical sites. This helps to preserve a communitys identity and buildings. Wed like to do more to highlight its importance in the community, such as the Mt. Olive Baptist Church. All of the community founders are
cal preservation site. Weve been working on restoration and research to get it on the record, says Murphy. Based on the historical preservation report on the building, the town was recommended to get restorations done quickly in order to preserve its structure.
Restorations on the building are being funded 80 percent by the Morris County Preservation Trust and 20 percent by the townships open space monies. Costs are estimated at $292,000, with $243,000 coming from a grant by the preservation trust, continued on page 19

Tell Them You Saw It In The Mt. Olive News, September 2012, Page 19 continued from page 18 says Murphy. Renovations began in August on the old church and include a new roof, windows and steeple. The architecture of these renovations reflects a period of significance from the 1870s, says Murphy, with a metal roof and clear windows. The existing church windows, many of which are broken, are stain glass windows which were installed in 1947 to replace the

original clear glass windows. Within the stain glass windows are memorial plates which will be kept for display, says Murphy. The windows are being replaced because many of the frames are in poor shape and there is broken glass everywhere, says Murphy. The tall spire of the steeple blew over back in 1950 during a lightning storm. To repair the damage, the steeple was then
shortened and a roof was constructed on top. It wasnt done properly, says Murphy. Its going to be restored and replaced with a new roof on the steeple. Murphy says that the renovated church will not only serve as a historical landmark, but will be utilized by the community. Next to the church is a one room schoolhouse from 1837 which was called the Mt. Olive Academy Building. In the space between the old room school house and the Mt. Olive Baptist Church, Murphy says the town hopes to create a local museum so people can visit to learn how the school was 150 years ago, as well as the history of Mt. Olive with some displays and educational programs. We would like to invite the community in to use the building, says Murphy, regarding the old church. One idea is to use it as a wedding chapel.
Getting to that point in which the building can be used is a three to four step process. It will take us another couple of years to get this done, says Murphy. The first part of the project is the exterior which is currently being worked on. The next step will be to renovate the interior of the building which will include the hook up of all utilities and improvement of interior surfaces. The third step will be the renovation of the interior ceiling, which is currently canvas painted. Donations and sponsors from individuals and corporations toward further improvements to the Mt. Olive Baptist Church are being accepted. Hopefully this initial work may attract more sponsors, says Murphy. Call Murphy at the municipal building at 973-691-0900 for more information.
Page 20, September 2012, Tell Them You Saw It In The Mt. Olive News Who wants a new turf field? was the burning question Patrick Keegan, president of the Mt. Olive Soccer Club (MOSC), shouted out to a crowd of about 600 people on Saturday, Sept. 8 that kicked off the opening ceremony of the newly surfaced field # 4 at Turkey Brook Park under warm and partly sunny skies. We couldn't be more proud and happy to have this new field, said Keegan. All MOSC players will be using this field from Pre-K all the way through high school age. The festivities also marked the opening the the club's fall season that consists of instructional and travel programs. Construction began in mid-July and was completed Sept. 7. The field, which was originally constructed in 2002 as a high-end, sand-based natural grass field has been replaced with a synthetic playing surface made by FieldTurf. This conversion, which has been financed by a public bond and paid for by the MOSC, will give the club the ability to play soccer outdoors on a year-round basis. Following Keegan's opening comments, he introduced MOSC's current and former board members and key volunteers. He also welcomed Mayor Rob Greenbaum, former Mayor Paul Licitra, who was primarily responsible for the construction of Turkey Brook Park in 2003, and several township council members. He then introduced all the teams as they excitedly entered the field with their coaches from the smallest Pre-K players through the older 17 year olds, all of whom will be playing on the new field this season. With the opening of this beautiful field, our township is headed in the right direction, said Mayor Greenbaum,
New Turf Field Dedicated and Opened by Mount Olive Soccer Club
who, along with Keegan, helped cut the ribbon against one of the balloon-decorated goals to mark the official opening. Sal Matteis of the Budd Lake section of the township and his 8-year-old son have only been involved with the
club for a year and so far like what they have seen. I've heard a lot of good things about the club like the small teams, parent involvement and a good spirit for the game, he began. When my son saw the big field, he said, 'I think I want to play soccer!' MOSC raises funds through generous donations of our members and the local community, as well as major fundraising efforts like our annual Halloween Tournament and Fall Tricky Tray, Keegan explained. These funds have always been earmarked to make improvements to the quality of our soccer program, from our earliest days at continued on page 22

Dentist Makes The Mark!!
r. Ira Goldberg, a local dentist, competed in two major triathlons in 2012. The first was on July 8 when he completed the NYC Triathlon, an Olympic Distance event. Dr. Goldberg raised over $1,000 in donations for the American Cancer Society, since this date coincided with his mothers birthday. She had passed away in 1997 from cancer.
Local Dentist Completes 2012 Ironman
On August 11, Dr. Goldberg completed the inaugural NY/NJ Ironman. An Ironman consists of a 2.4 mile swim, a 112 mile bike, and concludes with a marathon (26.2 miles). After competing in dozens of triathlons over the past few years and knowing the energy level of the shorter NY Triathlon, there was no way I could pass up the opportunity to participate in this inaugural event in my own backyard. The thoughts of running over the George Washington Bridge and biking on the Palisades Parkway were visions that got me through the months and months of training, says Dr. Goldberg. Dr. Goldberg has been practicing dentistry for over 17 years: recently he purchased a practice across from St. Clares Hospital in Dover, and in approximately 2 months it will be relocated to the Roxbury Mall in Succasunna. My staff, patients, and myself are quite excited about this relocation. We will be able to incorporate more cutting edge technology, provide additional comforts, and continue to deliver exceptional general and implant dentistry for the community. Dr. Goldberg excels in implant dentistry: he has studied under some of the biggest names in the field, and has been placing and restoring implants for 16 years. He holds advanced degrees in multiple implant organizations as well. One thing that separates our office from many others is what we can provide patients in one location: we place, restore, and provide grafting for implants under one roof. Rarely do we have to refer patients. For additional information, check out his website: www.moriscountydentist.com or call 973-328-1225. Always FREE Consultations!!

Thomas Edison Father of New Jerseys 42nd Governor Charles Edison

by Michele Guttenberger The Glenmont Estate was the home of Thomas Edison in West Orange, New Jersey and it is part of the National Park Services. However, few realize this estate is also the childhood home and birthplace to the 42nd Governor of New Jersey. Governor Charles Edison was born in this home on August 3, 1890. Charles was the oldest son to Thomas Alva Edison with his second wife Mina. He graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts. As a young MIT grad, he quickly found employment assisting his father in developing World War I defense technology for the US Navy. During this time he became friends with the Assistant Secretary of the Navy - Franklin D. Roosevelt. He married his college sweetheart Carolyn Hawkins on March 27, 1918 at the Edison familys Ft Myers winter home. The ceremony was performed in the Seminole Lodge gardens. Too involved in the War efforts, Thomas Edison did not attend his son Charles wedding ceremony but sent a telegram - If you have decided it must be done, then the sooner it is done the better. It cant be any worse than life in front line trenches. Impossible for Theodore or myself to come. His bride Carolyn was also involved in the War effort assisting medical staff at Harvard University to prepare for overseas deployments. Charles and Carolyn had a childless marriage. From 1927 to 1959 Charles was the president of his fathers record company Thomas A. Edison Inc. It was his relationship with FDR that would be the catalyst for his political career. He broke the family tradition of being Republican in the early 1930's when he became a Democrat like his friend FDR. President Roosevelt appointed Charles Edison the position of Assistant Secretary of the Navy in 1937. Edison positively agreed with Roosevelt that the U.S. Navy needed to be the strongest in the world. He advocated the construction of the large Iowa-class battleships when he was in the Navy Dept. and proposed that one of them be built at the Philadelphia Navy Yard. This decision helped secure votes for Roosevelt in Pennsylvania and New Jersey in the 1940 presidential election. In return, Roosevelt had the BB-62 named the USS New Jersey. Today it is preserved as a floating museum in Camden, NJ. Roosevelt named Edison Acting Secretary of the Navy on January 2, 1940 after the death of Secretary Claude A. Swanson in 1939. However, he resigned from this position in June 24, 1940 to run his gubernatorial campaign as a politician without political ambition. Charles Edison served only one term as Governor from 1940 to January 18, 1944. It was a tough gubernatorial campaign. It was difficult for Charles Edison to distance himself from the Democratic Party Boss Jersey City Mayor Frank Hague. Edison abhorred Hagues Political Machine and would not accept his endorsements. "I would rather be respected than elected" Edison would proclaim. Edison attacked Hague's political corruption and control of the courts during the campaign. When Edison became Governor, Hague retaliated by blocking many of Edison's reforms. Edison also faced a battle with state legislature controlled by Republicans. Edison wanted to reform New Jerseys Constitution which was in place since 1844. Edison lacked the power to push his reforms to abolish the three year term; veto overrides allowances by a simple majority and limited powers of the governor (a shared power with over 80 boards and commissions). Nothing was changed during his tenure. His proposed referendums did not pass.
Ironically, a few years later, the state legislators did reform the constitution in 1947using his pragmatic nonpartisan concepts. You can still visit the Governors childhood home today and visit the site of the Edison recording studio. Visits to Glenmont are by appointment through the main visitor station. This NPS estate has a seasonal visiting schedule. Please visit The Thomas Alva Edison Museum- NPS Open Wednesday through Sunday.

roadway veteran Randall Duk Kim will lead the cast in the new Great Authors Our Loud Series which will launched by Centenary Stage Company this fall with a free staged reading on September 16th at 3 PM of Molires Tartuffe. In this most famous of Moliere's provocative and hilarious satires - whose subjects of seduction, hypocrisy and greed sparked a ferocious scandal after its first reading - Tartuffe unmasks the true motives of religious impostors who have plagued and manipulated people throughout the ages. Pretending to be a religious devotee, the character of Tartuffe manages to bully his way into a rather normal household, disguising his own sexual appetite under a mask of righteousness. Moliere peppers this comedy with all the classic comedic characters, including the bossy maid, the easily duped husband, the controlling mother-inlaw, a pair of absent minded young lovers, and the deviously self- righteous Tartuffe, who is not at all as religious as his host believes him to be. Audiences can expect a lot more than just a staged reading, says Randall Duk

Kim. As Kim recently told Broadway World author Gregory Allen, We want the audience to spend a few hours getting to know these masters and the wonder of their work. They are some of the brightest lights in our cultural and intellectual heritage. They have served as guides in my own personal development besides providing me with joy, excitement, comfort, wonder, curiosity, and life-long challenge. We will endeavor to give the audience a clear and honest rendering of these plays in a relaxed atmosphere, hoping they will be surprised, stimulated, and well entertained. Randall Duk Kim and Anne Occhiogrosso, together with Charles Bright, founded the classical American Players Theatre in Spring Green, Wisconsin in 1981, where they worked together for 35 years. Winner of the OBIE Award for Sustained Excellence, Randall Duk Kim began his early career with the legendary Joe Papp and the New York Public Theatres Shakespeare Festival, and continued to perform leading roles of the classics at some of Americas finest regional theatres. He has been seen on Broadway in Flower Drum Song, Golden Child and The King and I, but perhaps is most recognized as The Keymaker in the film Matrix Reloaded, and the voice of Oogway in the DreamWorks animated film Kung Fu Panda. After leading the Centenary Stage Company 2012 Summer Masters Class, Kim returns to Centenary Stage Company for the Great Authors Reading Series, which
he and Occhiogrosso will direct, and which will feature four free presentations of the classics through the 2012-13 season. In addition to Tartuffe, upcoming plays will include Ibsens An Enemy of the People and Shakespeares The Merchant of Venice as well as an afternoon of Chekhovs one act plays. continued on page 36

ocal dancers, Naomi Benenson from Tewksbury Township, and Jessica King from Chester are on their way to stardom. Benenson has been chosen to play Clara in the Radio City Christmas Spectacular in New York City this holiday season, while King will be joining the National Tour of Billy Elliot. Hundreds of children from all over the country auditioned for both roles, but the excellent dance technique, performance ability, and sparkling charm of these exceptional dancers won them their prestigious roles. Naomi and Jessica have danced together at Art of Dance in Chester, NJ since age three. Now eleven years old, and members of the Art of Dance Company, they dance 5 to 6 days a week and have proven to be dedicated dancers with excellent attitudes. Studio owner Valerie Harman says, You just cant help smiling when both of these girls take the stage. All our dancers work so hard, and we are so proud of each and every one of them. Naomi is the second student from Art of Dance to receive the prestigious role of Clara in the Radio City Christmas Spectacular, and Jessicas role as a Swing in the National Tour of Billy Elliot means she has a very challenging road ahead. She is required to learn 5 different roles and will be called upon to fill in every time a performer is sick, injured, or is unable to perform. Both girls received their roles through the New York City Dance Alliance program. Naomi auditioned for the Christmas Spectacular during NYCDA Nationals in July, while Jessica has had numerous callbacks with casting director Nora Brennan since 2010 as a result of her NYCDA audition. Both dancers have been named NYCDA Outstanding Dancers multiple years in a row, and Jessica was named a Top 10 dancer out of 100 dancers at NYCDA Nationals in 2012. At Art of Dance, Ms. Harmans goal is to provide the best, most comprehensive dance training available in New Jersey. With instructors from The American Ballet Theatre, Broadway Dance Center, the Rockettes, and teachers specializing with preschoolers, Art of Dance offers only the best instruction available. Art of Dance congratulates Naomi and Jessica on a job well done. With such talented children, and a supportive community, this local dance studio hopes to continue to produce the stars of tomorrow.

Township Fleet Moves In-House

The committee, advised by Council President Alex Roman, that prepared the proposal included Canning, Mayor Greenbaum, Chief Financial Officer Sherry Maniscalco, DPW Superintendent Tim Quinn, and Buildings and Grounds Supervisor James Lynch. The analysis encompasses many identified best practices in fleet management dealing with repair, purchase, centralization of function and billing to departments. We believe that by bringing the fleet maintenance function in-house we have the potential to save the township approximately $50,000 in the first year and upward of $150,000 in subsequent years, the report states. According to the report, the township currently operates a fleet of approximately 152 types of vehicles, which include patrol vehicles, lawn mowers, heavy construction and sanitation vehicles. The Township could not provide a service to the community without our fleet, the report states. Our operations include public safety, police, street and park maintenance and inspectional services among others. The fleet must be readily available to respond to life threatening and public health emergencies including water/sewer breaks and clearing roads after storms. In the past, the township has outsourced its fleet operations, and those companies would make a profit. Work has been performed in the towns DPW building located behind
By Cheryl Conway o save money, local officials have agreed to keep the maintenance and repairs on township vehicles inhouse. After careful examination and analysis, a committee of representatives from various departments throughout the town presented a proposal in August to the Mt. Olive Township Council to reduce its spending on its fleet maintenance. The council adopted the proposal and starting Jan. 1, 2013 all operations on township vehicles will be conducted by township personnel. Cutting costs has been the game plan since Mayor Rob Greenbaum took office. By eliminating the outsourcing of the towns fleet maintenance, officials expect a significant decrease in spending to help control local taxes. Since Mayor Greenbaum came in, everything is driven by data, savings and better service, says Sean Canning, Mt. Olive Twp. business administrator. What weve been doing is analysis all year on pretty much what we do around here, to streamline operations. We are looking to save a lot of money. After spending five months examining, analyzing and reviewing whether it would be more cost effective to continue the practice of outsourcing the towns fleet maintenance versus performing the work in-house with hired personnel, officials have decided on the latter.
the Mt. Olive Senior Center. In-house work will continue at the DPW garage and the new proposal will be taking away that profit and giving it back to the taxpayer, says Canning. We were pleasantly surprised that we stood to save real tax dollars and savings here, says Canning. Thats the direction we are going to go. While outsourcing has resulted in average overall performance, it is the opinion of this committee that the township can provide this service at a cheaper rate and save almost $50,000 in the first year; inclusive of start-up capital costs. The savings expand from that point and we believe an in-house service can provide a higher quality return. In addition there is the distinct possibility of engaging in a shared service with the Board of Education for their non-school bus fleet. This possibility has the potential of providing approximately $15,000 in additional savings. This would bring the total net difference in expenditures to $65,000 in the first year of operations, the report states. The town would have to decide whether to hire one supervisor mechanic, and two full time mechanics or three assistant mechanics. There will also be a user group or add-on committee made up of in-house staff that will meet to better identify what vehicles need to be replaced and what dont, says Canning.
Pigs Rollin In Fruit From Local Fruit Bouquet Shop

spring. Pig is 140 pounds; Big Momma and Star Jones are both 120 pounds. Vignoli supported the idea of supplying scraps to Summers pigs immediately, and ever since has been setting aside the fruit waste daily, Monday through Friday, that would otherwise be going in the garbage. We mark the garbage cans with a sticky note pigs" as we prep fruit in the morning so no other daily trash is deposited in them, explains Vignoli. Jason picks up at least 50 to 60 pounds a day and we estimate over 300 pounds of garbage a week is being recycled as food. We know it's important to "go green" and we've kind of adopted the pigs - they are just adorable and they go crazy when they see Jason coming home with the black bags of fruit! In business since 1999, Edible Arrangements is the creator and leader in the fresh fruit bouquet category for all of lifes occasions with an array of fresh products, including handcrafted fruit arrangements and gourmet chocolate dipped fruit. Today, there are more than 1,129 stores in 14 countries around the world. The store in Budd Lake is going into its ninth year since it opened in 2004 offering all of the special fruit bouquets. Open seven days weekly, customers can place orders in
By Cheryl Conway ruit for humans is not the only arrangements being made at Edible Arrangements in Budd Lake. Three pigs have become regulars of the local shop recently. Donna Vignoli, owner of Edible Arrangements on Route 46 east, has made arrangements to give her fruit leftovers to Mt. Olive township employee Jason Summers so he can feed his three pigs on his farm in Broad Headsville, Pa. The partnership has been beneficial all around. We could probably fill up a dumpster once a week from all the garbage we throw away, says Vignoli of Rockaway. We thought it was a nice thing to save our waste instead of dumping it in the garbage. Vignoli says, Saving all our bags of melon rinds, pineapple tops, and any fruit that does not meet up to our high quality standards has helped to conserve on our garbage and provides some healthy nourishment for the animals. This past summer, Summers- who has worked for the Mt. Olive Twp. road department for the past 13 years- approached Vignoli and some other local businesses to request the scraps or waste for his pigs. Summers got three female pigs this past
person or call to order. Deliveries are made within a 20-mile radius. With fresh fruit cut and prepared everyday, Vignoli says so much waste from the fruit is thrown out by the end of the day, she welcomes the pigs to have some enjoyment. She sets aside rinds from cantaloupe and honeydew, strawberries, pineapple tops,
apple peels, oranges, watermelon, grapes and kale. They especially love the top prickly tops of the pineapple, says Vignoli. They love the kale so we save that for them too. They even take the leftover chocolate fruit. Each pig probably eats 60 pounds a day of continued on page 33

says Summers. They hear me pull up and they start snortin and making noises, describes Summers. Pigs are pretty smart. They like the kale, pineapple heads, the melon guts with the seeds. They clean it all up. Everything you put there, they eat. Summers is very happy with his arrangement with Edible Arrangements. For me, its free food for the pigs and its good for them, says Summers. For her, as far as her garbage, it cuts that down. Vignoli says she would like to donate her scraps to even other takers. Summers picks up his five to six black bags of fruit before lunch, and by late afternoon, Vignoli says they are throwing out three to four more bags of grinds. He doesnt take it all because he cant fit it in his truck, says Vignoli. There could be another source in the afternoon for a second shift of production.
the fruit leftovers. They are really sweet, Vignoli says about the pigs. She and some of her staff plan to take a trip in Oct. to meet the pigs. Two out of the three pigs are show pigs and will be competing in some 4H shows. Summers registered Big Momma and Star Jones as show pigs; and as far as Pig, he and his family plans to eat her hopefully in December when she is big enough. Also on the farm are paint horses raised by Summers wife, peasants, chickens, dogs and cats. Although they did not grow up on a farm, they both always dreamed of having one. They started off with one horse, ended up with 16, sold some and are now down to nine paint horses. Summers also gets some scraps from Adams Bagels in Budd Lake such as the leftover bagels and pastries. Pigs love grain, fruits and vegetables, anything green or grassy and some meat,

Vote For More Than the Man
By Harlin Parker ets be honest. The American economy has seen better days. Its certainly seen much worse, too. But as difficult as these times are, better days are ahead of us, of that I am sure. I believe in this country. I believe in the people of this country. So Im an optimist. Yet here we are in very difficult times. As we look ahead to the presidential election, we need to understand that well be voting for more than just President Obama or Governor Romney. It isnt about just choosing one man over the other. The two national conventions were more than just theatre. In the case of the Republicans, it was sort of theatre of the absurd, especially with Clint Eastwood. But even I wont hold that over their heads. We all have a crazy uncle somewhere, eh? What the two conventions showed us was a difference in basic philosophy. It showed one group with its simple, and disingenuous, slogans, rooted in an alternate universe unre-
lated to reality, and another group, one that is made up of a whole spectrum of different people, from all kinds of backgrounds, coming together and offering a reality check on who we really are, and what we really need. We all, not just Republican Tea Partiers, believe in individual liberty. Most rational people, though, understand that we really are all in this together. Were a country. We have to live and work together, even as we cherish and protect, and rejoice in our constitutional rights and liberties. No man is an island, nor do we want to be. The Republicans put on an ugly show of blame, blame, blame. One after another held forth blaming not only President Obama, but just about every other American who doesnt believe exactly as they do for, well, for everything. They built that. What, did they go and chop down the trees, saw the planks of wood, mine the iron to forge the nails? They did it all, alone? The silliness was running rampant. continued on page 35
60 Days to The Election
By Luigi Luciano K both conventions are over and we now begin the 60 days to the election. Listening to the clips from the Democratic Convention seems to be more of the same. Meaning they are asking us to settle for more of the same. The Vice President says we are better off than we were four years ago, the President says he needs more time. I think they are both delusional. Where do they live? I cant even name one person I know who is better off than they were four years ago. As far as the need for more time, no way. I am really tired of the blame game. This President sounds like he was dragged out of his house and forced to become President. He cries that it was worse than he thought when he took the job and that it is everyone elses fault but his. Granted he did inherit a lot of troubles,
but he was elected because he said he would transform America and get the job done in one term or he would be a one-term president. Well 4 years later the country is actually worse off than it was when he took office. Everything he tried failed. Despite the fact the he had full control of the House, Senate and Presidency his first 2 years. His investments into alternative energy companies (who by the way were major donors to his campaign) all went broke with hundreds of millions of our dollars gone. His incentive for people to buy the GM Volt at the tune of about $15,000 of our money in tax credits failed. No one wants electric cars but he keeps trying to push them down out throats instead of drilling for more oil. Housing is worse, unemployment is the highest it has been for this long of a period, the housing market is still bleak, and the continued on page 35
Tell Them You Saw It In The Mt. Olive News, September 2012, Page 35 continued from page 34 On the economy, well, the Republicans placed complete blame for the current economy squarely on the head of President Obama. After all, they say, hes been in office now for three or so years. He has to stop blaming former President Bush. Its all Obamas fault now. Or is it? Time for some, uh, grown up talk. In January, 2009, the American economy was essentially in free fall. This was no ordinary business cycle recession. This was the kind of financial crash that all of us who warned against the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act would allow. This kind of crash, by its very nature, takes longer to fix. It takes even longer, unfortunately, when Congress fails to act properly. Republicans in Congress have spent the entirety of President Obamas term desperately trying to thwart every effort to provide the kind of fixes our economy has needed. Hoover would be proud of todays Congressional Republicans. And now that years of Republican intransigence have had their way? Why, its all President Obamas fault. Trillions of dollars of national debt? All Obamas fault. Are you kidding me? Even now, with 16 trillion dollars of national debt, the majority was produced by Republican administrations. But this is just one of so many issues on which listening to todays Tea Party soaked Republican Party is like listening to a bad used car salesman. Mitt Romney and the Tea Partiers have made it clear that they hate Obamacare. But wait, now Romney says he wants to keep various provisions of the dreaded Obamacare. He hates the law but he likes whats in it! Huh? His running mate, Paul Ryan, is so truth challenged he couldnt even tell the truth about his running time in the one and only marathon he ever ran in. I dont know much about running marathons, but the professionals say anything under 3 hours, especially by an amateur, is downright amazing. So dont you think
Vote For More Than the Man...
that if you ran a marathon in under 3 hours, as Ryan claimed he did, youd remember that? Ryans time was actually well over 4 hours. As Texas Governor Rick Perry would put it, Oops. But Ryans lying about his marathon running time is not the big worry. The big worry is how chock full of outright lies (what more polite people would call falsehoods) were in his speech at the Republican National Convention. Im surprised that his pants didnt catch fire right there on stage. And his latest Kafka-speak explanation of why he wont divulge what tax deductions hed eliminate in his much ballyhooed budget plan? Because he wants an open process. Open! No back room deals for Mr. Ryan. But how do you have an open process when hes so secretive about his own plans? Theyre some pair, Romney and Ryan. This is all just a sad, sad state of affairs. Over the years, Mitt Romney has taken every side of every issue. Just from examining his history of statements, from his own words, it is just not possible to figure out what he actually believes or what hed actually do. But what is clear is that today we do see him in full, supine, obedience to the radical fringes of the Republican Party, or what used to be the radical fringes. We saw a large crowd of angry white people at this years Republican National Convention. It wasnt a pretty sight. And if you think that anything theyre offering is in any way beneficial to regular, middle class folks, well, please drop me line. I have a very nice bridge Im sure youll buy. It wont be cheap but youll buy it. Times are tough but things will get better. America is changing. Americans are changing. Dont panic. Dont be scared. Dont succumb to simple sounding slogans, especially ones based in outright lies. Nobody is going to lose here. If we all work together, respect each other, and accommodate each other, if we COMPROMISE, we can all flourish. Yes, we can. Send comments to harlin@harlinparker.org.
60 Days...
continued from page 34 deficit is beyond anything we could have ever imagined. So with that all said who in their right mind could re-elect this guy? Forget Democrat or Republican just from a practical point how can anyone vote for him? There is nothing he has done or plans to do that will get us out of this mess so why not elect someone else? How much worse can they do? It is a very interesting subject to study. How do people vote for a failure? What does this say about those people? Do they like to fail? Do they reward failure? Do they like people who can blame others and not take responsibility? Obama is the President of the United States, if he were a man he would accept that is policies have failed and take responsibility. If he did that I might actually respect him. The election is less than 60 days away. One has to ask themselves has he done what he promised? The answer is no. Did he do his job and create new jobs and stimulate the economy? The answer is no. Did he get the deficit under control? The answer is no. Should he be rewarded with another 4 years? The answer is no.

ily cut to any length the client wants and will stay in as long as a moisturizing shampoo or hair conditioner is not used on the root area. Alfonso is particularly excited about working with groups for this worthy fundraiser. Last year he was invited to Morristown Medical Center to apply extentions to the Labor and Delivery staff during the shift change in their department. Cheerleaders from Blairstown came in as a team to show their support, as well as a few girls' sports teams from the local high school. It's a fund raiser and team building exercise all in one! The salon will gladly accept any donation even if customers don't want to take advantage of the hair extension services. A jar will be available at the front desk to anyone wishing to help the fight for a cure. Donation jars can also be found at Valentino's Pizzeria, Verizon Wireless store, Wine Rack, Flanders Cleaners, Flanders Bagels, and Mandrin Village, all located in the mall.

The salon is offering pink hair extensions to commemorate the cause. The extensions are available in two shades of pink for $12 each and cash is required. A limited quantity of the light pink version is available. There is also a limited supply of pink feathers, too. 100 percent of donations and profits for this fundraiser will benefit the Susan G.

alloween is a time for costumes and candy. Americans spend roughly $6 billion per year on Halloween candy. After Christmas, Halloween is the country's second-biggest commercial holiday. Although many people like the convenience of buying bags of pre-made candy, they will not have control over the amount of sugar or the other ingredients that are being put into these confections. This Halloween, celebrants may want to make their own sweet treats to hand out or share at Halloween festivities. * Chocolate lollipops: All it takes is a mold, heating device and some chocolate candy melts to make delicious and eyecatching homemade lollipops. A visit to the craft store will probably yield all of the ingredients you need. Some kits feature squirt bottles that can be filled with chocolate, heated in the microwave and then easily squirted into the candy molds. * Cake pops: A revolution in dessert,
Sweet Treats for Halloween
cake pops can be made in two ways. The first method is baking a cake and then crumbling it up into a bowl. Then a container of cake frosting is added, making the mixture moldable. The mixture is then formed into balls, which are put on lollipop sticks and dipped into melted chocolate. The second cake pop method is to purchase pans or special waffle-iron-type devices that turn batter into balls while cooking. Then the cake balls are put on sticks and covered in frosting or chocolate. * Candied fruit: Caramel-covered apples are an autumn tradition, but you also can dip bananas into chocolate or pieces of pineapple for a pseudo-healthy treat. * Chocolate bark: Create a healthy and delicious mixture of ingredients by melting dark chocolate and adding in nuts, dried cranberries, raisins, sunflower seeds, or anything else you can think off. Pour the mixture on a piece of waxed paper and allow to harden in the refrigerator. Then cut into chunks and enjoy.
