By Josh Lashley

Many people who have competed in

the sport or are fans of the sport can

likely state with a great deal of cer-

tainty that is a very challenging athletic

endeavor, both physically and mentally.Wrestling is a great sport to teach young peo-

ple positive life lessons such as the ability to

overcome obstacles, focus on a goal and con-

tinue to preserver even when things arent

going the way a person had hoped.

Yes, wrestling can be a very awarding

sport, but its also unquestionably challeng-

ing. For a high school student-athlete to

obtain the goals set forth by themselves

and/or the coaches, they must have a belief

not only in themselves, but the coaching

staff as well.

Something else that can help keep awrestler on the right track throughout the

course of the season is confidence and trust

in the team captains. The team captains can

gain that trust from the rest of the athletes

on the roster not only by their words, but

also by their actions.

In their own ways, the three captains for

A Look At Roxbury High School Wrestlingthe Roxbury High School wrestling squad-

Tim Garripoli (senior), Kyle Adams (junior)

and Dillon Artigliere (sophomore) made

very positive impacts for the Gaels this win-

ter.

Garripoli demonstrated the type of seniorleadership that is crucial to the success of

most sports programs. Despite a season-end-

ing injury, Adams showed his dedication to

the program by always being there to sup-

port his teammates and Artigliere proved

through hard work, to go along with skill

and talent, an underclassman can do very

well at the ultra-difficult NJSIAA State

Tournament.

The three captains werent simply hand-

ed their significant roles on the team, they

earned it through the way they conductedthemselves on and off the mat.

The captains are voted on by the team

and the coaches after the first two weeks of

practice, Roxbury head coach Jim Dolan

said. Unfortunately, Kyles season was cut

short due to an ankle injury.

All three young men excel in the class-

room. All are on Honor or High Honor Roll

every marking period. They help their team-

mates by being good role models, leading by

example in and out the classroom, working

hard every day and doing the right thing.A District and Regional champion this

season at 145 pounds, Garripoli went 1-2 at

the State Tournament, which was held at the

Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. In the pre-

quarterfinal round, he was defeated y even-

tual State champ Alexander Richardson (St.

Peters Prep). He won his first match in thewrestle-backs, but then lost a match to Curt

Delia from Delsea. Delia ultimate placed

fifth in the State. Garripoli had over 100

careers wins for Roxbury and he finished his

senior season with a record of 36-2.

Artigliere had a memorable run at the

States at 152 pounds, as he advanced all the

way to the semifinal round before losing a

two-point match to eventual champion

Raamiah Bethea from Trenton Catholic. He

rebounded for the semifinal loss to ultimate-

ly place fifth in the State. In the match todetermine fifth-sixth place, Artigliere

downed Pelal Deeb (Passaic Tech), 5-1.

Artigliere had an overall record of 38-3 this

season.

Tim and Dillon are workout partners in

the room everyday and push and challenge

each other to get better, Dolan said.

Despite Kyles injury he attended every

practice and match in support of his team.

NOTES: As a team, the Gaels advanced

to the semifinal round of the NJSIAA North I

Group III Sectional Tournament before los-ing to top seeded Paramus.

Local Expert Shows NJ Parents How To Get The Most MoneyFor Their Childrens College Education

N

ew Jersey parents suffering with

finding ways to pay for their chil-

drens college education can final-ly get the solutions to their college funding

problems.

Most families who earn $75,000 or more

and own a home assume they are not eligi-

ble for financial aid. However, most fami-

lies 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 finan-

cial 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 dol-lars.

Newell offers a few simple tips to par-

ents with college funding problems. If a

parent has only half an hour to end their col-

lege 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 col-lege for a better financial aid package.

Newell offers New Jersey parents with

college funding problems a free booklet

that explains the 9 most common collegefunding problems and solutions. Free copies

will be distributed at the seminar listed

below.

Mr. Newell will be conducting a free

one-hour seminar for parents of college

bound high school sophomores and juniors

at the following location: The Washington

Twp. Public Library on Wednesday, April

25, 2012 at 7:00 p.m.

Making his way to Landing for the24th year, the Easter Bunny willbe part of the annual Port Morris

United Methodist Church community egghunt and puppet show held on March 31stfrom 1pm 4pm. The event is free andopen to children ages 1 10. (Children age7 and younger must be accompanied by aparent.) Besides the egg hunt, there will begames plus a puppet show. The fun starts inthe fellowship hall of the church, located at296 Center Street in Landing (with parkingin the rear in its lot on Main street).

Tina Berchak, of Stanhope, is one of thecoordinators of the event. She is also headpuppeteer. Berchak shared that the title ofthis years puppet show is Little Duck andthe Key to Every Door (written by Linda A.Copp).

The storyline is Little Duck asks theEaster Bunny if he can go with him on his

journey to deliver the Easter baskets andmake it back in time for the Easter egg hunt.Easter Bunny agrees, but Little Duck tiresout by the end and realizes how much workis involved. So he resigns himself to just

being a duck, said Berchak.

In addition to the puppet show, childrenwill get to play a variety of games and ofcourse, follow the Easter Bunny to the placethat hes hidden some early Easter eggs.For the hunt, children are broken down intoage groups and then the fun begins.

I love coming to Landing each year to

participate in the hunt. At this point, someof the people I met as children, now havechildren of their own that have come to thehunt. Of course, there are always new peo-

ple to meet. I love the smiles of all the kidsas they search for my eggs. Ah Easter, gotto love it! said the Easter Bunny.

The event ends with a tradition its heldfor all 24 years, the breaking of the piata.

Of all our outreach projects, the Easteregg hunt is my favorite. I always look for-ward to the Easter Egg Hunt because itcoincides with spring which reminds us ofthe new life all around us. It also gives us arenewed spirit as we enter into holy week.

That spirit comes in all forms. You see it onthe faces of those that donate their time, tal-ents and supplies for the hunt. You see itagain on the faces of the children that watchthe puppet show, play the games and partic-ipate in the infamous pinata activity. Everyyear, we make new memories while wekeep the old ones in our heart. Our churchis blessed with so many "take charge" youthand adults that volunteer their time and tal-ent to make this event a success year afteryear. It is a tradition of our church that Iwon't want to give up anytime soon, saidBerchak.

Ecoscaping is a growing trend amonghomeowners who want to take careof their lawns and landscapes but

want to do so in a way that's environmental-ly friendly. Integrating both landscapearchitecture and spatial planning with envi-ronmental science, ecoscaping is meant tohelp homeowners create a sustainable andeco-friendly landscape design. It's naturalto assume that ecoscaping includes lookingfor ways to reduce reliance on chemical

pesticides, but there are many additionalways homeowners can embrace ecoscap-

ing. This includes removing or refusing toplant invasive plants that are difficult tocontrol because they are from differentecosystems and can threaten local wildlifeand existing plants. Instead of choosingexotic plants that aren't native to the area,choose native plants that are accustomed tothe local climate. Another way to embraceecoscaping is to develop a planting strategywherein plants are planted in beneficialgrowing conditions that can eliminate the-

need for chemical fertilizers and excessivewatering.

The Growing Stage, The Childrens Theatre of New

Jersey, located in the Historic Palace Theatre on

Route 183 in Netcong, New Jersey is proud to pres-

ent SEUSSICAL from March 9th to April 1st with perform-

ances Friday evenings at 7:30 PM, Saturday and Sunday

matinees at 4:00 PM. Music by Stephen Flaherty, lyrics by

Lynn Ahrens, book by Stephen Flaherty & Lynn Ahrens,

and based on the works of Dr. Seuss. SEUSSICAL is

directed by TGS founder and executive Director Steve

Fredericks with choreography by Jillian Petrie and musical

direction by Laura Petrie.

Now one of the most performed shows in America,

SEUSSICAL is a fantastical, magical, musical extravagan-

za! Tony winners Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty

("Ragtime," "Once On This Island") have lovingly brought

to life all of our favorite Dr. Seuss characters.

The story centers around Horton the Elephant, who finds

himself faced with a double challenge--not only must he

protect his tiny friend Jojo (and all the invisible Whos) from

a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an

abandoned egg, left to his care by the irresponsible Mayzie

La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnap-

ping and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses

faith in him, the only one who recognizes "his kind and his

powerful heart." Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loy-

alty, family and community are challenged and emerge tri-

umphant in a story that makes you laugh and cry.

SEUSSICAL features the talents of Steve Graham as

The Cat in the Hat; Kristen Ware of Newton as JoJo,

Christopher Frazier of Whippany as Horton; Melinda Bass

of Montclair as Gertrude McFuzz; Maggie Graham of

Fanwood as Mayzie La Bird, and Sahirah Johnson of

Newark as the Sour Kangaroo. Also in the cast are Danny

Arnold and Sandy Taylor of Bayonne as Mr. & Mrs. Mayor;

Sarah Jessica Anfora, Kristen Comyns and Katelyn Spinosa

as The Bird Girls; with Becky Nitka, Matthew Fralley and

Brandon Hightower as The Wickersham Brothers. In total

there is a cast of 31 professional and local artists perform-ing in the production.

T

he events of the last days of Jesus

Christs life will come alive through

drama and song at the Stanhope

United Methodist Church (Netcong) and

the Port Morris United Church (Landing) on

April 5th and 6th. OnApril 5th at 7:30 pm,

the Stanhope United Methodist Church will

begin the story with its dramatic presenta-

tion, Is it I, Lord? The next evening,

Good Friday, at 7:30 pm, the Port Morris

United Methodist Church continues the

story, retelling the events of the crucifixion.

The Stanhope United Methodist Church is

located at #2 Route 183 in Netcong. The

Port Morris United Methodist Church is

located at 296 Center Street (parking in therear on Main Street) in Landing.

Is It I, Lord? is a dramatic presentation

of the Last Supper put on by the United

Methodist Mens group at the church. As

the disciples begin to gather in the Upper

Room, each shares, through monologue,

about his life with Jesusbut knows one

will betray the Lord. Each one questions,

is it I, Lord?

The presentation is a longtime tradition

at the church, and several of those in the

cast have played their roles for many years.

I am John. Jesus calls me the beloved

disciple because as a part of his intimate,

inner circle I have shared his trials as well

as his hours of victory! I am concerned that

one of us will betray him. Surely not BruceBristol, who has portrayed me for the past

20 years. He has grown to know me and

loves Jesus. Who could it be? Come

Thursday night [April 5th] and find out ,

shared Landing resident Bruce Bristol (in

character).

The Sacrament of Holy Communion will

be celebrated during the service.

Everyone is invited to come and bring

family and friends. The table of the Lord is

open to all who come, said Rev. Tom

Kinter, pastor of the church.The Thursday service ends with Jesus

praying in the garden before he is arrested.

On Good Friday at 7:30pm, the Port

Morris United Methodist Church picks up

the story with Jesus at the garden. The serv-

ice will feature music by the Port Morris

Chancel Choir directed by Richard Boyer,

Jr. of Budd Lake. Boyer is a well-known

director at Pax Amicus.

The Good Friday service is a mixture of

spoken word and song, with an opportunity

for the congregation to join in the telling of

A scene from the Stanhope United Methodist Church Holy Thursday presentation which resembles

the scene depicted in DaVinci's Last Supper.

Churches Present the Last Days Of Christ

the story through hymns. It takes the story

from the garden, to the crucifixion to laying

Christ in the tomb.

Budd Lake resident Joe Johnson is a

U.S.. Marine Corps Combat Veteran

and a Stanhope police officer. Hes

served his country and community and nowhis friends are hoping the communitycan

help Johnsons family. Johnsons 2 years

old son, Joey, has been diagnosed with a

rare form of brain cancer that is affecting

his right frontal lobe. There are two upcom-

ing fundraisers being done for the family: a

square dance at Mt. Olive High School on

March 25th from 12:00pm - 2:30pm and

Band Aid at the Stanhope House, 45 Main

Street, Stanhope on Sunday, April 22nd

(Rain or shine) from 12:00 - 9 pm.

Every parent knows the heartache when

your child is sick. Few can imagine the hor-

ror of having to live what these good folks

are going through and have to deal with

every day. No one person can make this all

better for the family. No one person can

take away the hurt or helplessness they live

with. No one person can make a difference.

But, when a community comes together

with love, support and prayers, well, that's a

different story. Let this family know they

are in our hearts and prayers, and that willmake a difference for them, and for us all,

said Stanhope resident Dave Vnenchak,

who is involved in the fundraisers.

The March 25th fundraising dance is one

that will appeal to all those that love to

square dance. It is being sponsored by the

NNJSDA (Northern New Jersey Square

Dance Association) and is co-hosted by two

dance clubs: the Reelers and the Kittatinny

Rangers. The callers, who are donating their

time for this event, are Jim Snyder and

Dennis Reardon. The dance will be alter-

nating Main Stream and Plus. There will

also be Round Dancing with Cuer Mary

Pickett donating her time to cue the Rounds.

Vnenchak, who along with his wife, Robin,

is a member of the Reelers, notes that

Snyder, Reardon and Pickett are three of the

best at what they do. The Fulton Bank of

NJ Netcong Office is donating and serving

lunch to all dancers. Tickets are $7.00 at the

door and $6.00 in advance. To get advancedtickets, contact Vnenchak at

[email protected] or call and

leave him a voicemail at 973-551-0192.

The other fundraiser, Band Aid", will

be held at the Stanhope House and offers

live music all day, April 22nd. While the

full schedule of events for the day is not yet

set, as of now, there will be six different

bands from the tri-state area performing.

Also, so far, there are 20 corporate sponsors

donating goods and services that will be

given out as door prizes between the per-

formances. Those door prizes are every-

thing from gift baskets to gift cards. A 50/50

drawing will be held that Sunday night at

9:30 pm. There will be many law enforce-

ment groups, including the Blue Knights

M.C. clubs, and Nam Knights Riders com-

ing. "T" shirts are being designed for the

event and will be on sale as soon as they are

ready.

When asked about the sponsors of the

event, Venechak shared, First and fore-most, the Band Aid event could not happen

without Jon Klein of the Stanhope House.

He has donated the use of his club and com-

plete staff for this event and nothing could

happen without his support. The Sussex

County Marine Corps League, Stanhope

American Legion, Netcong V.F.W., the

Stanhope Police Department and the entire

Stanhope Town Council are the driving

force. We also have 20 other corporate

sponsors who have given something to help

make this event great. We will be giving

away door prizes all day thanks to their gen-

erous support.

The hope is that people will come out for

these events, and support Joey and his fam-

ily.

Community Events to Help Area Toddler Fight CancerThis is a horror no family should have

to endure. Joe is a Marine Corps Combat

Veteran who cares enough about his com-

munity to become a police officer and raise

his family here. The Town of Stanhope is agreat community, where we all know our

neighbors, and care about our town. The

Band Aid concert for little Joey is a way we

can all come out and spend an afternoon

with our neighbors and help to support a lit-

tle boy and his family. I hope the whole

town can come by, said Venechak.

If people want to help, but cannot attend

one of the events, donations can be made at

the Stanhope Town Hall or Stanhope Police

Station. The Stanhope American Legion isaccepting donations as well. In addition,

donations can be mailed to: The Joey Fund,

24 Main Street, Stanhope, NJ 07874.

Please make checks payable to The Joey

Fund.

Fascination with the silent movie era has become atheme in recent award winning movies such as

Hugo and TheArtist. We can only imagine what

society was like hundreds of years ago through printed

words, but these silent movies transport us with actual film

footage on what was awesome a hundred years ago.

Thomas Edison became the first silent movie mogul.

The starting point of this new industry was envisioned by

William K.L. Dickson an English engineer employed by

Edison. Edison was persuaded by Dickson to support

experiments for moving pictures in his New Jersey labora-

tory. The result was the Kinetograph camera and the

Kinetoscope viewer both US patented in 1891.

On December 1892, the first motion picture studio locat-

ed in West Orange, NJ was unveiled. It was a black hulk-

ing wood and tarpaulin structure. He promoted it as the

Kinetographic Theater. But, its comic name the Black

Maria (a moniker for the police paddy wagon) became its

popular name that stuck especially since the structure was

black too and had wheels. Filming was done by Edisons

Kinetograph a huge wooden camera the size of an average

doghouse that Edison himself referred to as The

Doghouse.

New Jerseys Black Maria studio churned out the first

movies produced in the United States. They were truly

short films - none of them exceeded 30 seconds and they

were viewed like todays MP3 players for individual view-

ing only. The Kinetoscope viewer also had a second name

too called the Peep Show Machine. In 1894 the first

Kinetoscope (Peep Show) Parlor opened in Manhattan.

However, vicious competition soon developed with the

inception of foreign movie studios. The early silent film

industry lacked patent and copyright rights from the bur-

geoning US and European film industry. The British

Animatograph film projector invented by Robert W. Paul

was essentially a copy of Thomas Edison's unpatented

Kinetoscope. Edison did not file for European patents on

his movie equipment. Obtaining cheaper versions of the

Kinetoscope was a boom for the French theatre. In April

1896 the Thtre Robert-Houdin was showing films as part

of its daily performances.

In retaliation to revenue lost in European sales of movie

equipment, Edison found compensation in his ability to

duplicate a European hit film and make distribution of these

copies to US theatres. In 1902, agents of Thomas Edison

nabbed a London Theater copy of A Trip to the Moon by

Georges Mlis (honored in the movie Hugo). This enabled

Edison to make hundreds of copies and had them shown in

New York theatres. Mlis received no compensation.

Eventually, even Edison pushed for copyright protection on

artistic material.

The movies studios may have moved to the world arena,

but silent movie history remains in New Jersey. You can

still view the Black Maria, the Kinetoscope, along with

some original Peep Show silent films at the Thomas Alva

Edison Museum -NPS. Open Wednesday through Sunday.

Hours are 9:00am - 5:00pm. Regular Entry Fee is $7.00 -

R

epublicans John

Cesaro, councilman

from Parsippany-

Troy Hills, John Krickus,

former mayor of

Washington Township, and

David M. Scapicchio, for-

mer mayor of Mount Olive,

today announced the forma-

tion of a joint campaign

committee to challenge the

three incumbent Republican

Morris County Freeholders

who are up for reelection

this June.

The joint committee,which will campaign as the

The Morris Conservative

Team, today released the

following statement:

In 2010 and 2011, three

incumbent Republican

Morris County freeholders

were defeated by primary

challengers, clearly demon-

strating that Republican

voters are eager to challenge

the partys status quo and

elect reform-minded, con-

servative Republicans

Republicans in name, and

action.Over the past 6 years

alone, Morris Countys

overburdened taxpayers

have been forced to pay for

more than a $40 million

increase in county govern-

ment, even as many Morris

County towns have been

holding the line on spending

during these challenging

times. We can and must do

better.Our ultimate goal is to

reduce and reform county

government so its smarter,

smaller and more respon-

sive. Each of us will bring

relevant business, legal and

local government experi-

ence to the freeholder

board. We have track

records of capping taxes and

shared service projects that

resulted in millions of sav-

ings, and are anxious to pro-

vide active leadership in

shared services for all levels

of government. We fullysupport Governor Christie's

fiscal and political reforms

and will set the example for

part-time public servants by

foregoing taxpayer-funded

health insurance.

The choice for

Republicans is clear: reelect

indifferent incumbents who

take their votes for granted,

or choose dynamic leaders

who are beholden to no onebut the taxpayers.

Season with pepper and bake for 1 1/2 hours.

Meanwhile, in small saucepan over medium heat, combine

jelly, butter and thyme, whisking occasionally until jelly

and butter melt together and mixture comes to a gentle boil,

1 to 2 minutes. Cover and set aside.

In medium bowl, combine the grapes and shallots. Set

aside.

Baste ham with jelly mixture. Continue baking, basting the

jelly mixture and/or pan juices about every 15 minutes.

When ham temperature reaches 120F, add grapes and shal -

lots to roasting pan, stirring to coat with pan juices.

Continue baking and basting until internal ham temperature

reaches 140F, 15 to 18 minutes per pound total cooking

time. Remove ham from oven, transfer to cutting board, and

let rest 15 to 30 minutes. (If grapes and shallots arent ten-

der yet, return roasting pan to oven.)

Slice enough ham to serve and arrange on plates or a plat-

ter. Season roasted grape, shallot, and pan juice mixture

with pepper and spoon some on top of ham. Serve remain-

ing grape mixture on the side.

Serving Suggestions: Serve with roast potatoes, fresh peas

or steamed asparagus. If youre cooking for a smaller

crowd, use ham steaks instead, basted with a smaller

amount of the jelly mixture.

Go beyond store-bought marshmallow chicks and

chocolate rabbits this year. Perfect for some-bunny

special or as a dessert to brighten any holiday

table A Tisket, A Tasket, A Cupcake Easter Basket cup-

cakes prove that it can be a good idea to put all your eggs in

one basket.

These cupcakes look impressive, says Nancy Siler,

vice president of consumer affairs at Wilton, yet they

require just a few easy steps. Simply bake cupcakes and use

your favorite cake mix to help speed up prep time. Cool

completely, place into Picket Fence Cupcake Wraps or

Basket Cupcake Wraps and pipe with green-tinted icing to

create grass. If piping isnt possible, simply spatula ice the

cupcakes; either way, they will impress.

Wilton has a basketful of ideas for finishing these little

cakes. Perch miniature nest decorations filled with jelly

beans on the icing grass for a playful take on a robin's

springtime roost. Or, top cupcakes with pre-made icing

flowers to echo the cheery hues of spring's first blossoms.

These treats will be the perfect end to any Easter hop-pen-

ing.

could not take him when they moved. He is a lovely cat, with

handsome green eyes, a calm disposition, and the desire to find a

warm spot in the sun and in your heart to find a new home. He

will make a wonderful addition to any home. He has lived with

other cats and has interacted well with dogs. He is a bit on the

chubby side weighing in at 15 lbs. He hasnt missed a meal yet,

and comes running whenever dinner is served! To read more

events, or to make a donation, please visit: www.ehrdogs.org or

Heres the lovely Sadie from Eleventh Hour Rescue. She is a

young, Boxer mix less than a year old, with lots of youthful ener-

gy. Like any puppy she is full of play and then settles down once

shes all tuckered out. This girl was left outside and tied to a tree

for the first part of her early life and abused by her owner as well.

The owner was encouraged to surrender her and finally agreed.

This special girl is now safe and sound under our care. She has

been blessed with a few short term overnight stays in a foster home

where its been determined that she is house trained and is com-

fortable in a home environment. Shes ready now to find her per-

manent home. To read more about Sadie, to see all of our adopt-

able pets, to see our upcoming events, or to make a donation,

Meet Nene from Eleventh Hour Rescue. He is a sweet old man.

Nene is a small, 9 year old Maltese/Poodle (Malti-Poo) Mix.

Although his cataracts have affected his eye sight and he has trou-

ble seeing and therefore can be easily startled, he still gets around

quite well. He is housebroken, loves to meet people and dogs, and

loves to be close to his human companions for some good quality

snuggle time sitting on your lap. Its obvious that he was well

loved in his previous home and he is looking for his new loving

home now. To read more about Nene, to see all of our adoptable

pets, to see our upcoming events, or to make a donation, please
