The Kearny Board of Education is a hot topic on KearnyOnTheWeb's Discussion Board. In the run up to the filing of petitions for the April School Board Election, supporters of various factions posted to the topic entitled simply "BOE" in the Kearny section of our Discussion Board.
The topic started out innocently enough with the question "Does anyone have any idea who is going to be running for BOE?" but has since generated over 3400 visits and 7 pages of posts. KOTW has been busy monitoring and on occasion editing some of the posts.
Challengers George King, John Munro and Bob O'Malley are running against incumbents Bernadette McDonald, Joe Sgalia and Alan Doffant. The Kearny School Board of Education election will be held on April 20, 2010 between 2 p.m. and 9 p.m. The election traditionally has low voter turnout.
A couple of issues have been discussed on our Discussion Board including the proposal to create a Middle School in Kearny.

February 17, 2010 (Harrison, NJ) The Red Bulls Job Fair drew over 1,000 applicants for 500 part time jobs at the arena. Individuals started lining up in the cold weather outside the stadium hours before the doors were scheduled to open.
The Job Fair caused a traffic jam as applicants converged on Harrison in hopes of landing a job. Clearly the poor economy and the prospect of a job, even a part time one, drew many applicants from varying backgrounds in search of employment. Many applicants appeared eager to work at the stadium and got an opportunity to peer out onto the playing field.

February 10, 2010 (West Orange, NJ) Kearny resident Carla Henriques gave birth to twins today at St. Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston after being rescued by an Essex County Sheriff's Officer. Essex County Sheriff's Detective Joseph Stivalo was on snow patrol when he came across a Dodge Magnum stuck without traction in West Orange. The vehicle driven by Miguel Henriques, the husband of Carla Henriques, was not able to gain traction on the hilly portion of Northfield Avenue.
Carla Henriques and some family members were moved to Detective Stivalo's SUV and transported to St. Barnabas Medical Center because she was already in labor. Detective Stivalo stated that if necessary he would have delivered the babies calling upon his prior training.
