Several Causes of Spring Temperature Extremes

By Matthew ChristyC O L U M N I S T

W hat a spring this has been. The new season is only a few weeks old and we have

seenextremes on both ends as far as precipitation and temperatures go. We have seen 80 degree days alongwith strong to severe thunderstorms. As we just saw there has also been snow and temperatures in the30’s. Keep in mind the average high temperature for the Jersey shore is around 60 degrees.

Now let’s go into why the extreme fluctuations in temperatures. During the spring, the polar jetstream can real-ly change from day to day. To the north of the jet stream colder air persists. To the south,warmer, humid air is the name of the game. During the summer months the polar jet stream staysnorth of the US-Canadian border. During the winter the jet stream generally stays well south of ourarea.

Another thing that starts to develop over the spring is what we call a Ber-muda High. It formsclose to the Azores near Europe and it causes strong westward ridging that develops near Bermuda.This contributes to the warm weather and eventually heat waves to our area in the summer.

During the most recent stretch of nice weather a feature has formed over the Great Lakes calledan Omega Block of High pressure. This type of weather pattern can lead to an extended peri-od of dryweather and above normal temperatures for our area. The Omega High pressure can sit around theGreat

Lakes for days and not move. Any storm system that moves in from the west stalls out because ofthe Omega High is blocking the system from moving. This can lead to severe flooding in the plainstates.

Something else I would like to men-tion is radiational cooling. This occurs when the heat thatdevelops during the day with the sunshine radiates into space from the surface of the earth. Thishappens on clear nights with calm winds; for instance temperatures can drop as much as 30 degrees atnight when we have radiational cooling. On nights that the temperatures drop near freezing or below,the radiational cooling will cause frost and black ice to form. This occurs during the late fall throughearly April.

There are several factors as to why we have seen these extreme fluctu-ations in temperatures. Aswe head toward summer the extremes will lessen but other factors we will have to deal with; Heat,thunderstorms and hurricane season.

Failure To Make Tough Choices Put AC In Current PositionBy SETH GROSSMAN

C O L U M N I S T

A tlantic City’s crisis be-gan when the economy crashed in 2006, and when casinos opened in Pennsyl-

vania and Delaware a few years later. The casino “win” dropped from

$5.2 billion in 2006 to $2.4 billion in 2015. The value of Atlantic City’s taxable real estate dropped from $20.5 billion to $7.3 billion—a decline of nearly two thirds.

Yet as casino business collapsed, government continued to grow at the same double digit rates. City Hall spending went from $193 mil-lion in 2007 to $262 million in 2015. Public school spending per pupil went from $16,482 in 2007-2008 school year to $27,411 per pupil in 2014-2015.

In 2010, the state’s Local Finance Board appointed by Governor Chris-tie began to supervise Atlantic City’s finances. But it did nothing to cut spending.

It instead let Atlantic City assess and tax all local real estate at pre-2006 levels even though it was obvious that every property in town was worth much less. Atlantic City assessed and taxed each casino at about a billion dollars each when Re-sorts Casino sold for $35 million in 2010. Atlantic City refused to lower its casino assessments in 2011 when Trump Plaza (now closed) sold for $20 million and Trump Castle (now Golden Nugget) sold for $38 million.

When the casinos appealed, Atlantic City government spent a fortune on politically connected law firms to fight them. But it refused to cut employees and spending like every private business - even Local 54 - the casino employees union - was doing at the time.

In 2013, the casinos won their tax appeals. Locals then expected the crisis we are having today. But lay-off notices never went out. Bitter negoti-ations to cut salaries and Wall Street bond payments never took place.

At that time, Christie was running for President. Getting re-elected Governor by the biggest margin ever was all that

mattered. In 2013, Christie needed the enthusiastic support of big unions and Wall Street - not a crisis in Atlantic City.

Christie’s monitors gave Atlantic City government three more years of business as usual. Everybody in government got their regular pay hikes. There were few if any layoffs.

This was paid for with two years of tax hikes, massive new borrowing, and blatant disregard of state budget laws that required balance “cash ba-sis” budgets each year.

Christie’s monitors let Atlantic City go completely rogue for its 2015 budget. They let Atlantic City run without a budget until September. They let Atlantic City assume it would get $33.5 million from constitutionally shaky state legislation that Governor Christie was about to veto. They let the City “defer” $39 million in em-ployee health insurance and pension payments and millions more in tax appeal refunds - all in blatant violation of state law.

Last February, the state let this continue with “temporary appropri-ations” in 2016 based on last year’s

unbalanced budget. That is why At-lantic City had no money for payroll on April 8, and is too broke to hand over the money it collected for its public schools.

But Atlantic City did pay $600,000 to Wall Street bondholders on April 1, and agreed to pay $1.8 million more on May 1. The Mayor did not even begin the 45 day lay-off process for a single employee. The Casino Re-investment Development Authority (CRDA), which collects 1.25% of the gross win of every casino and runs half the town agreed to spend $20 million on six beach concerts and the Miss America Pageant.

Last week, Liberty and Prosperity filed suit to stop this madness. We are convinced that the best way to fix At-lantic City is to force its government to follow the same laws as everyone else. Only then will it make the same tough choices every private business and homeowner was forced to make during the past eight years.

OPINIONSAtlantic City Crisis: Who's Responsible?

T his week, our columnist writes about how the debacle of Atlantic City’s financial situation was

created and what might be done to bring it back from the brink of ruin. Why has the city budget increased when revenue decreased? What would a monetary default mean to the city, the county and the state? Should Governor Christie step in and allow state regulators take over? Are local entities like the county and CRDA doing enough? Those are some of the questions are columnist has sought to answer. What do you think? Email us your response or anything else that you’d like to get off your chest shorelo-cal@gmail.com

Columnist Facts QuestionedLetter to the Editor:

C ongratulations on your new publication, Shore Local. I wish you great success.

In the “Opinions” column in your April 7 issue, I believe the article “Green Energy: Really Just A Ponzi Scheme” is loaded with errors and misinformation. It is my understanding that the statement that solar panels don’t cut carbon dioxide, is not true. The article goes on to state “They kill more jobs than they create.” I ’m not sure I believe that.

“Solar panels are useless be-cause they only produce electricity about three hours a day.” Well, that’s an obvious lie. Stop by my house and I ’ll show you. “[They] shut down whenever a cloud goes

by.” Again, not true, either. My sys-tem generates plenty of electricity on cloudy days.

I haven’t had an electric bill for the last seven years. How many times has the electric company raised rates during that time? Each time they do, my solar panel investment becomes an even bet-ter investment.

I was fortunate to buy a sys-tem at a time when the state gave us a $16,000 grant toward the purchase of the system. Since then, I have saved on my federal income tax by getting tax credits, and every year I make money by selling the energy I generate, all while saving money by not paying a monthly electric bill (my bill this month was minus $108.52).

I’ve been told that in Spain, ma-ny towns have huge solar arrays

on the outskirts of their towns that supply much of the local communities’ power needs. The U.S. should do more regarding incentives for people to embrace alternative energy.

I wish the author of the arti-cle had done more research and presented the facts more fairly. Making statements such as solar panels only generate energy three hours a day reduces the credibility of other facts presented in the article.

Solar was one of the best in-vestments I ever made, and my panels are guaranteed for 20 years (10 years for the inverters). So my question to readers is, how much money is your roof making you?

Christie Administration Addresses Gun Permit Process Inequities A cting on Governor Chris

Christie’s commitment to ensure fair and consistent application of the state’s

gun laws that respects individual’s Second Amendment rights and protects public safety, the Office of Attorney General announced a direc-tive and guideline issued by Acting Attorney General Robert Lougy, and a regulatory change to align the reg-ulations governing the issuance of a carry permit with New Jersey Su-preme Court precedent interpreting the statutory standard of justifiable need. Taken together, the changes will help ensure all applicants receive efficient and uniform consideration in the processing of firearm permit applications.

“The terrible tragedy involving Ber-lin resident Carol Bowne last summer was a jarring example of a permitting system that had failed and needed to be reexamined and fixed. Likewise, I have seen far too many instances in my time as governor of otherwise law-ful gun owners facing severe criminal penalties when they have no intent to violate the law in the routine transport of their lawfully owned firearms,” said Governor Christie. “Building on the work of the Study Commission, my Administration is taking important, concrete steps today to address those loopholes and inequities and deliver relief and assurance to New Jerseyans exercising their Second Amendment rights that their constitutional rights will be protected and respected in New Jersey.”

“We are always looking for ways to improve the permitting process and to provide uniformity across the state,” said Acting Attorney General Robert Lougy. “And our guideline on reasonably necessary deviation in transporting a firearm provides ad-ditional clarity to police, prosecutors, and law abiding gun owners.”

Last year, Governor Christie signed Executive Order No. 180, calling for expedited treatment of applications in cases of domestic vi-olence and creating the New Jersey Firearm Purchase and Permitting Study Commission, following the tragic murder of Carol Bowne, a Camden County resident. Bowne had secured a restraining order against her ex-boyfriend and filed an applica-tion for a firearm permit in April 2015. Less than two months later, and with her application delayed beyond the 30-day statutory deadline for its pro-cessing, she was stabbed to death in

her front yard by her ex-boyfriend.The Study Commission was

charged with the specific task of re-viewing the state’s laws, regulations and procedures pertaining to the ownership and possession of fire-arms and make recommendations to enhance the lawful exercise of New Jerseyans’ Second Amendment rights. The Study Commission issued its report in December, noting multi-ple complaints from firearm permit applicants that statutory permitting requirements were being applied unevenly across the state, specifi-cally, that there were unnecessary delays in processing applications and the imposition of unauthorized requirements for permit applications, in violation of state law.

The directive, guideline and reg-ulatory change announced today include:

A Regulatory Change For A Handgun Carry Permit To Align And Harmonize The Definition Of “Justifiable Need” With New Jersey Supreme Court Standards:

● Published in the New Jersey Regis-ter on March 7, 2016, the regulatory amendment will provide greater ob-jectivity, consistency, and clarity in the application of this standard.

● The regulation adds “serious threats” to the circumstances that could demonstrate a special danger to the applicant’s life - including evidence of serious threats that are not directed specifically at an individual but which establish more than mere generalized fears or concerns - that a private citi-zen may specify in a written certifica-tion of justifiable need submitted with an application for a permit to carry a handgun.

● The amendment also clarifies that the issuance of a permit to carry a hand-gun can be based on a special danger to the applicant’s life that cannot be avoided by other “reasonable” means, rather than by “any” means, as the regulation currently provides.A Guideline On The Reasonably

Necessary Deviations In The Course Of Travel Exception For Transport-ing Firearms In New Jersey:

● Currently, the law allows a limited degree of deviation in the course of travel when an individual is lawfully transporting a firearm. People may transport a firearm that is unloaded and properly stored and in prescribed circumstances without a carry permit: to and from their home and business, hunting, shooting ranges and while moving between residences. New Jersey law allows, but does not define, “reasonably necessary” deviations in the course of that direct travel.

● The Study Commission found a lack of clarity in the statute that creates a risk of disparate and inconsistent application by law enforcement.

● The Attorney General is providing guidance through this directive to law enforcement and prosecutors to en-sure the law is administered uniformly throughout the state. The directive sets forth a balanced approach for law enforcement and prosecutors to em-ploy to determine whether a deviation in the course of direct travel between two points with a lawfully-possessed firearm is “reasonably necessary,” considering the nature, purpose and extent of the deviation from the fire-arm owner’s direct route.

● While not an exclusive list, some examples of stops or detours in the course of travel to or between loca-

tions that would qualify as reason-ably necessary include: collecting and discharging passengers; pur-chasing fuel, food and beverages, medication, or other needed sup-plies; using a restroom; contending with an emergency situation; or driving around a traffic jam.A Directive For Uniform State-

wide Practices And Procedures For Issuing Firearms Purchaser Identi-fication Cards, Handgun Purchase Permits, And Permits To Carry Handguns:

● The Study Commission’s report noted complaints by firearm per-mit applicants about variations in the practices and procedures used by licensing authorities issuing Firearms Purchaser Identification Cards, Handgun Permits and Carry Permits, including processing delays well beyond the 30 days prescribed by law and the imposition by some licensing authorities of application requirements that exceed the state permitting statute.

● The Attorney General directive re-quires licensing authorities simply to follow the law by processing permit applications in a timely fashion and limiting application requirements to those prescribed by statute.

● To increase transparency in the permitting process, the Directive requires licensing authorities to sub-mit, annually, data on the number of ID cards and handgun purchase permit applications filed and pro-cessed per month over the year, and the length of time it took to process those applications. These statistics will be posted annually on the Divi-sion of State Police web site.

● The directive also envisions a more efficient and consistent application process, requiring the State Police, within 9 months, to develop and disseminate to licensing authorities standard protocols promoting best practices for reviewing, investigating and acting on applications for fire-arms purchaser identification cards, purchase permits and handgun carry permits.

● Finally, the Attorney General will consider how new technology might streamline the processing of permit applications by directing the Superin-tendent of State Police, within 45 days, to convene a study group and report its findings to the Attorney General within 180 days of the group’s first meeting.

The contest was set up like a March Madness grid with the top beaches in 30 coastal states compet-ing in head-to-head matchups. Online voting determined the winner of each round. Ocean City beat Ogunquit Beach (Maine), Hammonasset State Park (Conn.), Crescent Beach (R.I.) and Tybee Island (Ga.) to reach the fi-nal against Huntington Beach (Calif.). The first round started on March 11 and the final voting closed on April 3.

The winning beach will be featured in the June 2016 issue of Coastal Liv-ing and in a special online package.

Our Construction.

GAMBLING POLICY MAKERS NEED TO MAKE SOUND DECISIONS ABOUT EXPANDING OUTSIDE ACBy Joe Kelly, President Greater Atlantic City Chamber

A s the leading business voice in the region, The Greater Atlantic City Chamber has a unique role to play in

ensuring business retention/devel-opment, new employment opportu-nities are being cultivated and the business community and the public sector are working together to create long term economic stability/growth for Atlantic County.

That being said, there are a num-ber of polices being advanced here in the state that concern our Chamber including increasing the minimum wage to $15, mandatory paid sick leave, and constitutionally dedicated pension payments for Public Employ-ees.

But from our perspective, far worse is the proposal to add more gambling within the state, essentially decimating South Jersey to benefit a few in the northern part of the state. While it’s true that Atlantic City has suffered significantly from the growth of gambling in the northeastern U.S., adding more casinos would make the impact on one part of the state disproportionately adverse.

AC has and does contribute to the entire state.

Since 1978, Atlantic City Casinos and Atlantic City have provided the State of New Jersey with significant revenue through taxes on Gross Gaming Revenues, Investment Alter-native Taxes Paid to CRDA, as well as corporate income taxes, property taxes, payroll and luxury taxes, and sales and related taxes.

While the industry has contracted in recent years due to gaming com-petition in neighboring states, the industry still employs almost 25,000 people directly and several thou-sand more in its vendor businesses. Total salaries and wages amounted to $684 million in 2014. In addition the industry has invested significant capital dollars, employing thousands in the construction trades.

Beneficiaries of Atlantic City Ca-sinos touch all corners of our state, from senior citizens and the disabled to those employed by the industry and their vendors to labor unions across the state’s geography from

Atlantic City across South Jersey to North Jersey and beyond.

However, with the oversupply of gambling throughout the northeast, Atlantic City has suffered tremen-dously. Since January 2014, four At-lantic City casinos have closed their doors. The impact of the closure of the Revel, Atlantic Club, Trump Plaza and Showboat facilities have resulted in the loss of 7,700 direct jobs, $240 million in lost wages and over $30 million in tax revenue.

And as you know, Atlantic County leads the nation in property foreclo-sures, and Atlantic City’s ratable base has declined from $20 billion to just over $6 billion.

That brings us to today and ACR1, which is proposing to amend the state constitution to allow the leg-islature to pass laws to permit the establishment of two casinos in two separate counties in North Jersey. This action creates a sharp divide between the two areas of the state.

Recent studies indicate that the proposed gaming expansion will:

• cause the closing of several more casinos,

• increase the County unemploy-ment rate significantly,

• exacerbate the property foreclo-sure rate beyond what is currently the highest in the nation and

• create severe economic hardship for our region.

The expansion of gaming beyond Atlantic City could cause the loss

of up to 14,550 direct and indirect jobs from the potential closure of an additional two to four casino ho-tels. Lost direct wages from those closings would amount to $230.9 million, resulting in reduced reve-nues to the state for wage-related taxes, lost fee-related revenue, potential impairment of publicly traded municipal and state author-ity debt, and the near doubling of Atlantic County’s unemployment rate, which is already twice the state average.

In addition, many national stud-ies indicate that more casinos do not equal more gambling revenue. They pointed to data indicating that growth in gamblers has remained constant over the last 5 years, while growth in gambling facilities has increased 38%. More than half the population in the Northeast now lives within 25 miles of a casino featuring video lotteries, table games or slot machines, up from about 10 percent a decade ago. In 1978, only Las Vegas and Atlantic City had casino gaming. Today 24 states have such facilities, with several other states expected to follow. In fact of the nine eastern states with casino gambling, only New York and Maryland were able to show improvement in 2013 over 2012.

The key issues for the Chamber and the business community from this legislative proposal are substan-tially more lost jobs, sustaining an already uncertain local investment

climate, and a real lack of reliable data and information on what actual bene-fits would be derived from expanding gaming in North Jersey.

Honest and realistic data (a study) on how much revenue will be gener-ated from casinos in other parts of the state needs to be completed and shared. What resources will flow to Atlantic City, how will it be used, who will receive it; all questions that need to be answered before considering ACR1. What we do know is jobs will be lost and we believe that the revenue from two casinos in North Jersey to Atlantic City will not offset the losses.

The following information was extracted from a recent report ti-tled South Jersey Economic Review by Stockton University William J. Hughes Center for Public Policy (Feb 2016):

Relating to JOBS, Stockton said “Reflecting the precarious state of the local economy, Atlantic City’s labor force is in virtual free fall. Be-tween November 2012 and November 2015, the metropolitan area’s labor force plunged by 12,780-a startling 9% decline. Only Pine Bluff, AR, whose labor force contracted 12.3% over the same period, saw a greater percent-age decline. Remarkably, the absolute decline in Atlantic City’s labor force was the fifth largest among all met-ropolitan areas in the U.S. during this period. “

And on HOUSING, Stockton Hughes Center said “The dire state of the local economy and the apparent out-migration now occurring contin-ue to be reflected in the local hous-ing market. Foreclosure data from RealtyTrac indicate that 1 in every 261 residential properties in Atlantic County was in some stage (pre-fore-closure, auction or bank owned) of active foreclosure in December. This compares to 1 in every 553 proper-ties statewide, and 1 in every 1,278 nationally.”

In closing, the Chamber has long been opposed to the expansion of gaming outside Atlantic City as should be our members, all South Jersey residents and all businesses.

Responsible elected officials must oppose this legislation and protect the region’s economic future. Policy makers need to make sound policy decisions.

Time to Break Out the Bikes and Hit the Trail

B icycle riding is one of the most popular outdoor rec-reational activities in New Jersey. The following tips

are designed to prepare you to get the most fun out of bicycle touring, whether it be a ride around the block or an organized rally or multi-day tour.

Plan aheadThink about where you want to

go and what you want to see. If you are planning your own route, for an extended trip, start out by selecting a general route corridor, then refine the route using large-scale county maps.

Plan “bail-out” points in case you have to quit early.

Know if and how public trans-portation will carry your bike. Many carriers require bikes to be boxed.

Use these questions to guide you in your tour planning:

Do you want companions?Do you want to camp? Stay in ho-

tels or motels?Is your proposed tour practical or

realistic for your level of experience, conditioning and available time?

Can you make emergency repairs if your bike breaks down?

Gain experience. There are many active bicycling

clubs in New Jersey and national organizations such as the League of American Bicyclists and Adventure Cycling. Join one of these clubs or organizations. Talk to experienced riders. Read some of the many ex-cellent publications on bicycling that are available.

Get in condition.Take short rides first, then gradually

increase the length of your rides. For extended tours, practice riding with a loaded bike. Try an overnight trip to a nearby camping area or town. You might try borrowing or renting equip-ment before purchasing your own.

Make sure your bike and other equipment is well maintained.

The bike should be in proper working order for every ride. A poorly maintained bike is inefficient and sub-ject to breakdowns that could lead to an accident or injury. Keep tires inflated to proper air pressure.

Carry basic maintenance tools to make emergency repairs.

A spare tube, patch kit, pump tire irons, and a few basic tools for emer-gency repairs. Know how to use them.

Make sure your bike is properly fitted.

Position your saddle height so leg is slightly bent when pedal is down position. Handlebars should be slight-ly lower than the saddle. To be sure, get fitted at a bike shop.

Obey the rules of the road.In New Jersey, as in all other

states, bicycle traffic has basically the same rights and responsibilities as motorized traffic. Ride with traffic, never facing it. Observe signals, stop and yield signs. Remember that side-walks are for pedestrians.

Use common sense.Anticipate motorists’ errors such

as pulling out of driveways without looking, making turns in front of you, or opening car doors into your travel path. Be alert for road hazards such as drainage grates, potholes, glass and other debris.

Select proper lane position for the situation.

Between intersections keep as far right as practical, but don’t hug the curb, the edge of the pavement or line of parked cars. Move left to pass slower traffic or obstacles but check overtaking traffic first. If the outside lane is too narrow for side-by-side sharing with motor vehicles, move toward the middle of the lane (i.e., “take the lane”) to indicate that motor vehicle traffic must change lanes to pass safely.

When approaching and at intersec-tions determine your lane and position within the lane by the direction you want to go. Position yourself so your intentions are clear. If there is only one lane for travel in your direction, approach the intersection towards the left, center/right or right part of the lane depending on whether you want to go left, straight or right. When you have a choice of lanes to use, ride in the right most lane which goes in the direction you want to go.

If you want to make a left turn and you sense that conditions are beyond your ability, you may make a “pedestrian” left hand turn by riding to the far side of the intersection and walking your bike across when conditions permit.

Signal your intentions to other traffic.

Use traditional hand signals, lane position and looking over your shoul-der to indicate your intention to turn. Use the over the shoulder look and eye contact with drivers to negotiate for a lane change.

Wear a helmet.This will minimize the possibility of

disabling head injuries in the event of a spill or collision. Wear brightly col-ored clothing to make yourself visible. Try to avoid riding at sunrise, sunset or into the sun. If you must ride at night, use lights. White in front, red in rear. It’s the law in New Jersey. Use supplemental lights; arm lights or flasher and reflectors. Don’t rely on reflectors alone.

Eat before you are hungry; drink before you are thirsty; rest when you are tired.

Carry water with you. Cool water is the best to drink. For longer rides, carry some snack food. Know what to do for hypothermia, heat stroke, cuts and scrapes, and other minor medical problems you might encounter.

Let someone know where you are going and when you expect to get there.

On longer trips (especially multi-day trips), check in at intervals. Carry some identification on your person, not in your bike pack.

Remember, touring is recreational experience not a time trial.

Shore Bicycle Tour- Somers Point to Tuckerton

This tour follows a circuitous route from John F. Kennedy Park in the bay village of Somers Point to Stanley “Tip” Seaman County Park near the quaint maritime village of Tuckerton. These communities bracket what is known as New Jersey’s ‘Greater At-lantic City’ region. Sights and sounds along this 45-mile route are steeped in fishing heritage, military history and transportation firsts.

While shore towns are known for their boardwalks, multi-use bike paths and small walking trails are common-place in these mainland communities. The paths along this route range from the smooth paved path traversing the heart of the mainland communities of Somers Point, Linwood, Northfield and Pleasantville, to the rustic Atlantic County Bikeway that runs through Egg Harbor Township.

The terrain is mostly flat, especial-ly along the 4-mile long segment of the Linwood Bikeway that has been constructed along the historic rail corridor. Moreover, free parking and indoor bathrooms are available at the start and end points of this ride.

Museums, historical sites and

cultural events make exploring the inland just as exciting as spending a day at the beach. A few of the many attractions are highlighted below.

John F. Kennedy Park, Somers Point

John F. Kennedy Park overlooks Great Egg Harbor Bay and is within close range of amenities and services in Somers Point. The embankment overlooking the bay allows spectacular views and the park is a pleasant spot for picnicking. There is a large play-ground area for children and a small beach area is accessible at low tide.

Somers Mansion/Atlantic Coun-ty Historical Society, Somers Point

Overlooking the Great Egg Har-bor Bay in Somers Point stands the Somers Mansion, a three story home constructed of brick in the Flemish Bond Pattern. Atlantic County’s oldest house, the Mansion contains 18th century furnishings as well as locally fashioned quilts, coverlets and samplers. Admission is free. Before visiting, call 609.927.2212 for hours.

Linwood Bikeway, Somers Point to Pleasantville

This 6.5-mile path originates in Somers Point and continues its linear footprint north through the cities of Linwood, Northfield and Pleasantville. Within these communities, this intimate path connects neighborhoods, schools, parks and playing fields. Though each section of the path has adopted the name of the city that it runs through, the path still carries the name of its original endpoint in Linwood.

Birch Grove Park and Family Campground, Northfield

Within minutes of Somers Point, Linwood and Northfield, lies a local historical treasure name Birch Grove Park. This 271-acre heavily wooded park features a natural landscape full of tree lined ponds. The park’s full amenities include nature, exercise and jogging trails, recreational play-ing fields, a full-service campground, picnic areas and a nature center. The park is also home to the Northfield Museum and historic Casto house.

Atlantic County Bikeway, Egg Harbor to Hamilton Township

This bikeway offers a pleasant off-road experience where you’ll be captivated by the expansive and tranquil nature of the Atlantic County Pine Barrens. This 7.5-mile bike and pedestrian path, built along the aban-doned rail corridor of the Pennsylva-nia-Reading Seashore Line in Atlantic County, begins its eastern trailhead at the Shore Mall in Egg Harbor and ex-tends to the Atlantic County Institute of Technology in Hamilton Township.

Earth Day Events Continue Through MayEarth Day began on April 22, 1970, with global demonstrations organized in support

of Environmental Protection. Two thousand colleges and universities, roughly ten thousand primary and secondary schools, and hundreds of communities across the United States participated. An estimated 20 million Americans became aware of the

issues concerning the environment. Many Environmental protections were put into place following this one day event. Later that year United States Senator Gaylord Nelson drafted a resolution to designate the third week of April of each year as Earth Week as an environmental “teach-in.” Today the Earth Day Network http://www.earthday.org coordinates the celebrations in more than 192 countries.

Worldwide annual Earth Day events are held on and around April 22. Celebrations range from educational opportunities, music festivals and Earth Day fairs to demonstration events to push for better regulation of pollution and protection of public health.

Locally we see environmental education in schools and colleges, peaceful demonstrations, community service projects, and all out festivals, to enable residents to celebrate Earth Day and live sustainably. Find an event near you.

Free Tree Seedlings Available To Atlantic County Residents

Free tree seedlings will be offered to Atlantic County residents begin-ning Saturday, April 9, while supplies last, at the Warren E. Fox Nature Center in the Atlantic County Park, Route 50, Estell Manor between 8 am and 4 pm each day.

The seedlings are provided as part of the New Jersey Tree Recov-ery Campaign to help communities replace trees damaged or destroyed by Superstorm Sandy. This the third year of a five year program during which the campaign plans to distrib-ute 500,000 seedlings to residents throughout the state.

“We encourage residents to take advantage of this program that is helping to enhance our communities with the planting of trees,” stated County Executive Dennis Levinson. “Trees benefit us in many ways - adding visual beauty, reducing home cooling costs and air pollutants, and providing wildlife habitats.”

“Consider celebrating Arbor Day with the planting of new trees on your own property,” he added.

The seedlings will be distributed in bundles of five per household with instructions on storage, care and planting. Recipients are advised to plant the seedlings soon after receiving them to prevent the roots from drying out. Information will also include how to choose a proper planting site with the tree’s mature growth size in mind. All seedlings will be native to the coastal habitat of our area.

If you would like to participate, it is suggested that you call ahead to confirm seedling availability, especially if you are driving from a distance.

This distribution is a collabo-rative effort of Atlantic County government, the New Jersey State Forestry Services, the State Forest Nursery, New Jersey Soil

Conservation Districts, Sustain-able Jersey, and the Arbor Day Foundation.

Some Golf Grip Tips To Improve Your Game

By: Tom Ghormley

Y ou may well be shocked or at least taken aback at how many players there are who work typically on their swing

action but hardly ever (if ever) work on their golf grip.

In this instance, I mean the golf grip of their hands, not the rubber grip on the shaft. When you think about it though, the full swing action begins with the golf grip, which will need to boost its relevance in getting it correct.

If your golf grip does not work, why should any-thing that comes after work? There is a unbiased grip for any golf enthusiast. That golf grip is when your arm hangs straight down from the shoulder socket and the direction of your target side hand.

t can make no distinction whether you use an overlapping, interlocking, or ten-finger grip. What IS crucial is the slope the club is placed in your hand. To uncover your neutral grip, to begin

with take your address spot, but without having a golf club, and make it possible for both arms to hang downward from the shoulders. Remain relaxed, there ought to be no stiffness in your arms or hands.

The majority of golfers find that their target side arm hangs anywhere

in between the midsection of the target side thigh

to the inside of the thigh, based on the width of foot po-sition and or the width of the upper body.

As you start looking down at

your target side hand pay notice to the angle

it hangs. A number of you will view two knuckles of the

hand, many can see three, and a few could even see four. It isn’t going to mat-ter how many you see. No matter what the number, this is your body’s way of informing you its natural predisposition and that is the neutral angle for your golf grip.

Northfield Community School T he lights are dark, but the

music is loud. Two girls, dressed in long dresses, perform the “Peru House”

scene. Emma Greenwood lights up the stage as “Marion”.

Northfield Community School has recently performed “The Music Man”, a drama production featuring 4th through 8th graders of Somers Point, Linwood, and Northfield.

The troupe has been practicing since January. Hard at work, the students bring their best at the dress rehearsal, one day before opening night. The show went on last week, April 7 through 10.

Marybeth McGrath, the vocal coach, commented that the show was challenging, and the group “definitely raised the bar.”

“These kids have gone above and beyond expectations,” said McGrath.

Director Gina Lyn Liscio was not only proud of the actors and crew, but of the alumni who come back to help with the show. Jules Keenan, Matthew Liscin, Mikaela Sheridan, and Grace Vicente gather each year

to work with the students, and lead by example.

Keenan and Sheridan, both ju-niors at Mainland Regional High

School, participated in the first production ever done, “Annie.”

“We got so close, the ending was bittersweet,” said Sheridan.

“I basically started here,” said Keenan. “It really affected my ex-perience at Mainland in an amazing way.”More photos on Page 17.

Basic Computer Skills Series: A Guide for Beginners

T he computer revolution of the last two decades has transformed lives from a pay phone to every person

carrying a cell phone, only being able to do tasks on your computer at work to everyone owning a computer at home, using a tablet to get the latest news, accessing your data from any device over the cloud, using technolo-gy to record several shows at once and being able to watch when you want, to not be able to start your car if the computer in your car is not working, to needing computer skills to apply for a job! WOW how things have changed. No other industry has had an impact on every aspect of everything, ev-erywhere. So if you are still saying to yourself: technology is the future, you are seriously behind in everything. Being able to communicate globally and have access to the world’s infor-mation available at your fingertips is the norm. With increasing digitization, knowing how to operate computers has almost become a basic survival skill. In this article we will cover two important topics: Working with com-puter hardware and learning how to use an operating system.

1. Working with Computer Hardware - Using the mouse/touchpad and keyboard.

Making the transition to comput-

ers can feel intimidating at first. The mouse can feel patently unintuitive and the touchpad (which does the same job as the mouse) can be in-credibly difficult to work with. The first step is to familiarize yourself with basic computer hardware. Feel free to pick up the mouse and move it around. It’s okay if you can’t make sense of what’s happening on-screen, the old adage: practice makes perfect is so appropriate. Check out: http://www.gcflearnfree.org/mousetutorial – a free website where you can practice mouse skills. For now, focus on be-ing physically comfortable with the mouse, especially if you are using a laptop with the touchpad. The same applies for the keyboard. Try typing your name on the keyboard, one key at a time. You might make mistakes, but remember that unlike typewrit-ers, undoing things on computers is as easy as pressing the ‘backspace’ key! Check out: www.powertyping.com – a free website where you can practice keyboarding skills. To use computers, you should be able to perform the basic following tasks:

Moving the cursor on-screen with the mouse or touchpad.

Clicking, right-clicking and dou-ble-clicking the mouse.

Using basic keyboard functions

such as backspace, enter/return, space bar, delete, tab, shift and caps lock.

Basic typing keyboarding skills.

2. Learning How to Use an Operating System

Think of an operating system (OS) as the program that lets you communi-cate with the computer.  The majority of you will start your computer expe-rience with Windows, the operating system built by Microsoft. For the purpose of this article, we will assume that you are using Microsoft Windows. To use an operating system effective-ly, you should be able to perform the following:

Finding, running and closing a pro-gram.

How to save files in folders and organize your data.

Saving and Printing a file.Using Windows Explorer to find and

open a file.Shutting down and restarting a

computer.E-Mail me at: thetbyrdcenter@

gmail.com and as a reader of the Shore Local we will give you FREE access to our T.Byrd On-Line Training Center – where you can take our class in the Basics of Windows, which will result in being able to print a certificate of completion.

Welcome to the T.Byrd Computer Forum at Shore Local. T.Byrd Comput-ers brings you a wealth of experience in providing this information. We hosted the one and only computer television talk show and radio show in the area for more than 10 years. We have written for several local magazines on technol-ogy an now it is our pleasure to write for Shore Local. We have owned and operated the T.Byrd Training Center since 1990, where students who get laid off from their jobs can obtain a training grant to become certified in Microsoft Office and Quick Books to start a new career. We will bring you important in-formation on using technology, take your questions and provide you with answers that you can apply and information on the latest technology and provide you important informational tips and tech-niques to keep you technology savvy.

Look forward to our next article where we will discuss the Internet and E-Mail. Thank you for reading our article and please send any questions you have for our Q & A section of our article. Ad your email address to our T.Byrd Com-puter Forum LIVE WebRadio Talk show and our T.Byrd LIVE Newsletter and re-ceive FREE special technology resources as a Shore Local reader or advertiser. So sit down at your computer, get started and enjoy the experience.

A History of Ocean City SurfingBy Willie Fannon

C O L U M N I S T

I walked into the Ocean City, NJ Historical Museum to meet with the executive director Jeffrey R. McGranahan to talk about the

upcoming summer exhibit and right as I got through the door I noticed there was a lot going on.

An empty space where a previous exhibit once stood now filled with a video camera, a few surfboards, and a couple people talking. Who were those people? On one side of the camera Jim Hennessey from Heritage Surf Shops talking about surfing and on the other side was Steph Godfrey from OC Magazine asking the questions.

In addition to the in-terview, Lora Hamer was taking notes on everything Jim was saying. Lora is in charge of the oral history part of the upcoming surfing exhibit. This was exciting to see all this going on in Ocean City and all of this for surfing. The buzz about the new summer showcase “Ocean City Surfing: An Exhibit of its Own” at the Ocean City Historical Museum is for real.

I wanted to talk a bit about the upcoming exhibit and how it all hap-pened.

Here is a little background on Jeff McGranahan who is the Executive Di-rector of the OC Historical Museum. An Eastern University History grad in his mid-30’s, who spends his time with his wife Malinda and his 3 year old twins Ryan and Ellora when he is not at the museum. The only one of twelve in his graduating class that has stuck with his major, working at a historical society in Philadelphia he jumped on the opportunity to move to the shore. Four years later he is getting things ready for an amazing exhibit on the history of surfing in Ocean City.

So Jeff, where did the idea come from?

“The true nucleus came from the donation of the CC Rider on display at the museum. Sam Ballam bought the surfboard for Christmas in 1968 in OCNJ and donated it a couple years back for the museum.”

When did this happen?“2013. In conversing with him, it

opened my eyes on the true level of passion of the people who grew up

in the 60’s surfing and that the surfing has stayed in their lives. The idea for the ex-hibit has been a long time in the making.”

When did you actually get the ball

rolling? “The planning started

in 2015 and finally we decided to put in a new exhibit and that this exhibit was going to be on surfing.”

Anything else you want to add?“Working with Lora, we are trying

to save the stories of the Ocean City Surfing History and bring that to the public.”

Thanks for your time and I am sure everyone else is excited as I am about the exhibit.

Ocean City Surfing: An Exhibit of its Own is set to open on May 28th at the Ocean City NJ Historical Museum which is located at 1735 Simpson Ave. The exhibit will feature a history of surfing which is going to include the OC Surf-ing Association, George Gerlach, Don Pileggi, Surfer’s Supplies, 7th St Surf Shop, Heritage Surf Shop and many more. Surfboards, posters, photos it’s all going to be there. The exhibit will run through the summer. Come check it out and see how the stoke of surfing has evolved over the years in Ocean City.

If you have something important that you think should be included in the exhibit please contact Jeff at 609-399-1801 or jeff@ocnjmuseum.org. For more information check out the website: www.ocnjmuseum.org

Lake Lenape Park, Mays Land-ing

Situated at the head of the Great Egg Harbor River, Lake Lenape Park’s acres of lakeside habitat is a draw for eager nature enthusiasts. During the warmer months, the lake hosts scores of fish, turtles and mi-grant, breeding songbirds. In the winter, migrating raptors are often

seen drifting down the lake and bald eagles often use the area for hunting and roosting. The park has pavilions, campsites, a playground and a beachfront that offers splen-did views of the lake. Reportedly, there have been as many as thirty bald eagles counted here at one time. For more information, call 609.625.8219.

Egg Harbor City/Egg Harbor Historical Society Roundhouse Museum

The Roundhouse Museum dis-plays memorabilia and items that are historically significant to Egg Harbor City. Permanent displays include Lib-erty Glass, C.P. Leek and Sons boats, clothing and wine industries and Dr. Smith’s Health Spa. For further infor-mation, call 609.965.4677.

Stanley H. “Tip” Seaman County Park, Tuckerton

Located on the western shore of Tuckerton’s Late Pohatcong, Stanley “Tip” Seaman County Park is a jewel in

the Ocean County Parks System. This 22-acre park’s facilities provide an op-portunity for the whole family to have fun including fishing, open play area, picnic area, shuffleboard, small boat launch and walking paths. The park is best known as home to the Annual Ocean County Decoy and Gunning Show. This two-day event in September draws exhibitors and visitors from the entire eastern coastline and beyond and has been named as one of the top 100 events in North America.

Whenever you place your target side hand on the golf club it ought to be at the identical angle you just saw. The golf club then extends diagonally from in between the first and second joint of the index finger to the bottom part

of the pinkie finger. Shut the fingers and then shut the hand with the heel pad on top of the shaft with the thumb to the rear of the shaft. This provides force from the heel pad downward and the last three fingers apply pressure upwards.

Then take the lifeline of the trailing hand, situated between the thumb and

heel pads, and position it on the thumb of the target side hand. The lifeline to-wards the thumb exerts the pressure. The right forefinger should be segregat-ed, in a “triggering position”, yet with no pressure. It is crucial to fully grasp that the forefinger and target side thumb both be on the similar side and angle of the shaft for the perfect support.

The trailing thumb ought to be on the target side of the shaft. You under no circumstances want the thumbs to apply any pressure. Last but not least, as a way for the hands to perform together, they need to be parallel to each other. This might all appear tricky, but try it and see for yourself if discovering the proper grip angle doesn’t enhance your shots.

Hometown Hero: Anne Robson Dice Leader in Our Community and AbroadBy Sarah Fertsch

S T A F F W R I T E R

I magine living with no running water. Imagine living in shack, with a dirt floor and palm leaves as a roof. Imagine living without

any windows or ventilation. This was reality for Marisol. Living in an impoverished com-

munity in the Dominican Republic, Marisol was downcast and depressed. Caring for her two young children, Marisol felt alone.

Until Anne Robson Dice and her team came along.

Dice, an Elementary Spanish/ELL teacher at Atlantic Christian School, has led teams of volunteers to serve in the Dominican Republic for the past nine years. They build an average of three houses per year in the impoverished vil-lage of Los Cocos de la Jacagua, about an hour away from Santiago.

Dice’s passion for serving the DR began when she joined the Peace Corps in 1990. As a part of her Master’s program at Rutgers, Dice

worked to help the community solve problems.

“Our goal was to work ourselves out of a job,” said Dice.

When the community didn’t have running water, the team designed a gravitational flow system, which saved many children from illness. Dice also worked with the local school to conduct teacher training, so the com-munity could better itself.

Even after she left the Peace Corps and started a family, Dice still visited her beloved host fam-ily. In 2004, with her husband and two young children, she stayed for a month. And in 2008, she visited again, living there for five months.

Dice was encouraged to give back, and to serve the community further. She started building new houses for the people of the community. With five volunteers, Dice constructed the first small, wooden house with zinc roofs.

Marisol’s house was the first to be built in 2008. After it was built, her entire countenance changed. She became an active member of the community, and still uses her old

home to dry tobacco leaves to sell.Today, Dice coordinates six differ-

ent teams to the Dominican Republic each year. Dice and her volunteers have built 73 houses, and run baseball camps for the children. Dice, along with others, leads the Missions club at Atlantic Christian School, and they travel to the DR each year. Fusion Church, St. Peter’s United Methodist Church, and Union Chapel by the Sea also send teams of volunteers.

Mair Landwehr, an upcoming-leader of the Fusion Church mission team, said she is inspired by Dice. The 18-year old plans on serving in the DR long-term, and has been meeting with Dice to prepare.

“She serves everywhere she goes,” said Landwehr about Dice. “She is a walking example of selflessness.”

In their 10th year of missions, Dice and her teams plan to construct a school. Dice says that she wants to make education more accessible to the families, and offer a meeting place for the community. The school will include a library and a Larimar workshop, where Dominicans can

learn to become jewelers and sell the premier gem of the island, Larimar.

“We were designed to live in a community and serve each other,” said Dice. “We were designed to sup-port each other. This is a partnership of the community, and God put this team together.”

Dice and her team are currently seeking donations for supplies to build the Los Cocos School and Com-munity Center. For more information on donating, please visit https://www.youcaring.com/DRMissionLo-sCocosSchoolandCommunityCenter.

Fairwell to my old friend, the Beesley’s Point BridgeBy Jesse Mounce

G U E S T C O L U M N I S T

T he two arms of the Bees-ley’s Point drawbridge are straight up, standing like sentinels over the wa-

terway; they haven’t been down to create a continuous roadway in five years.

There are vein-like cracks in the concrete road, looking down one can see water underneath like it were the blood of a living creature.

But the Beesley’s Point Bridge is dead.

Lines on the road that once divid-ed traffic are faded.

The tollhouse is destroyed; the doors are off their hinges and every window is broken. Through the glass-less windows I can see on one side the iconic B.L. England Generating Station and, on the other side, the Garden State Parkway Bridge.

Ticket stubs and toll receipts cover the floor, along with shattered glass from beer bottles.

What remains of the Beesley’s Point Bridge is slowly decaying away.

But it will always remain my favor-ite place.

I rode the bridge in an auto to my aunt’s house when I was 9. But in 2004, the bridge was closed to traffic. The Beesley’s Point Bridge Company couldn’t pay to keep it safe for vehicles.

I rode my bike across it with friends as a preteen. In 2010, Cape May County bought it for a dollar and closed it to pedestrians.

In my late teens, it was a place where I spent countless afternoons watching the sun set. My friends and I would climb over the barriers and walk the half-mile to the drawbridge. Out that far, the view of the sunset wasn’t blocked by the generating station.

Armed with our cameras, we would tour the tollhouse and dream of walking the whole mile of the bridge. I still have hundreds of photos.

During my senior year of high school, when procrastination hit hard and stress hit harder, I began to go to the bridge without my friends.

I would walk the half-mile alone, contemplating if I had made the right choice of college - or if I even wanted

to go. The stress of my social life, my home life, high school, and college frequently sent me to the bridge.

The tollhouse was a place I nev-er went in alone; I feared I would wake a homeless man. But wrapped around the tollhouse was foot-wide porch where I would take a seat. I would let my legs dangle, the way a child sits in a chair that’s too big. I would deeply breathe-in the bay water air; its salty smell seems to linger longer than the smell of ocean water.

I walked that bridge so much that I could walk it at night with-out worrying about stepping on a crack. I walked it so much that it knew all of my problems. It was a better friend than most people. The sound of the wind as it blew through the underbelly of the bridge was a confirmation it was listening.

In 1997, when the Beesley’s Point Bridge Company could not afford to keep the bridge alive, it was given a loan from the New Jersey Depart-ment of Transportation with the promise it would keep the bridge open for 20 more years.

But in 2004, the Beesley’s Point Bridge Company, unable to pay for needed repairs, closed the bridge.

A dollar transaction and the re-payment of $900,000 to the New Jersey Department of Transpor-tation put the bridge in the hands of Cape May County. The county promised a reopening, but eventual-ly, a decision was made to demolish the bridge.

For the last year, I ’ve been watching the bridge disappear with the helping fist of a crane. I try to re-member standing on the bridge, but those memories are slowly fading.

Soon all I’ll have left are the photos I’ve taken.

And the friendship of an old, steadfast friend.

2nd amendment group wins judgement against NJ

In an unprecedented (partial) victory the NJ2AS was awarded $101,626.59 for legal fees stem-ming from a lawsuit we filed against the State in 2011. This is the first time in New Jersey his-tory that the State had to write a check to a Second Amendment organization for legal fees.

In March of 2011 on behalf of the NJ2AS, Legislative Director Robert Barush and past NJ2AS President Frank Fiamingo filed an Open Public Records Act (OPRA) request from the NJ State Police for a copy of the most recent version of the Firearm Investigative Guide. The NJSP denied the Society access to the guide on the grounds it was exempt due to being “investigative techniques

or procedures” per N.J.A.C. 13:1E-3.2(a)(3).

Attorney Richard Gutman, who specializes in First Amend-ment and OPRA lawsuits, took up the case after the denial.

The case has been active since 2011 and in 2015 the court partially sided in favor of NJ2AS by providing a redacted version of the guide and awarded the NJ2AS court costs and re-duced attorney fees which was $101,626.59.

NJ2AS appealed that deci-sion and will be fighting for the remaining attorney fees as well as the full version of the Firearm Investigative Manual. However, the State decided to pay the awarded attorney fees immedi-ately to prevent paying interest on the award since it has been appealed.

Ladybird and Cindy Need Good Homes

L adybird is a 4 year-old hound mix. She can come off as a bit shy, however given the right amount of time and a little

bit of love, she will warm up quickly. She enjoys playtime with her other four-legged friends and cuddle time is her favorite time! She would be a great match for any home, so please don’t let her shyness stray you away from her.

Cindy is a 10-month old medium hair cat just waiting to go home with you! She loves to romp and play, and when she’s tired, she’ll find the best sunny spot in the house for a nap. Cindy would do great in just about any home.

If you are interested in adopting from HSAC, there are a few things you should know. If you currently

have a dog at home, it is strongly recommended that you bring your pet in to meet with the animal you are planning to adopt. This will be a requirement for most adoptions (and required for ALL dog/puppy adoptions) done here at our facility. It is very stressful for humans and pets when things don’t work out after the new pet has arrived. A vet

and/or home check may be required. In order for us to be able to adopt

an animal to you, we will need to have you bring a valid state-issued photo I.D. and documentation about your residence. If you rent, we must see an official lease agreement stating that pets are allowed on the property. If you own your home, we must see proof of ownership - a tax bill, deed, or mortgage coupon. We cannot accept utility bills or any other form of address verification. Prices and policies are subject to change at man-agement’s discretion. Adoptions of “Pit Bull”-type dogs and mixes must be approved by management for the safety of the dogs.
