Morris Township Mayor Robert Nace said the overwhelming majority of residents he's spoken to support the idea of installing cameras at intersections to catch drivers who speed through red lights. But some people might not like the Big Brother aspect of such devices, said a legislator who is studying the idea.This is a great website for bus and subway directions everywhere in the country (like Mapquest for public transportation).

For the better part of 23 years, Rich Vuyosevich has been coaching varsity boys basketball at Montville High School. This year, the only way he will be a part of the Mustangs basketball program is as a spectator. He's not happy about it.
Vuyosevich's contract to coach boys basketball was denied in a meeting of the Montville Board of Education in late October. The board has since hired a new coach, Paul Palek, to lead the varsity team, which began practices after Thanksgiving. Vuyosevich was not given a reason for why his contract wasn't approved.
The refusal for Vuyosevich's $8,000 coaching contract to be renewed is puzzling for a variety of reasons. The biggest may be that representatives of the Montville Coaches Association were told that Vuyosevich was recommended by the school's athletic director, principal and superintendent, but he was still not rehired.

Catch Ray Charles, Jerry Lee Lewis & Fats Domino on 3 Pianos playing and singing together. What great talents, and all together shakin, rattlin and rollin.
While shopping locally why not make it a family affair and take in a movie or perhaps lunch or dinner? 
Local merchants are not only reliable but tend to be more knowledgeable and friendly than seasonal employees hired by large, impersonal retailers.
Give it a try this holiday season. We bet you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the experience.
