May 9, 2010 (Kearny, NJ) KOTW wishes everyone a Happy Mother's Day. Mother's Day history has a connection to New Jersey as President Woodrow Wilson signed the bill that made Mother's Day a national holiday.
Here is a little history taken from Wikipedia regarding Mother's Day. The interesting thing is that Mother's Day is observed around the world and each nation gives it a slightly different significance.

April 18, 2010 (Kearny, NJ) The Kearny School Board Election will be held this Tuesday, April 20, 2010. The polls will be open from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. KOTW will have the poll results as soon as they become available.
KOTW has experienced increased traffic from a very heated discussion surrounding the Kearny Board of Education Election. The thread simply entitled "BOE" in the Kearny section of our Discussion Board has generated over 379 reply posts and almost 14,000 views. Our Poll entitled "Who's Your First Pick for Kearny Board of Education?" generated controversy when it became apparent that someone circumvented our one vote per day policy and voted on multiple occasions on the same day for one candidate. The votes that count however will be cast this coming Tuesday at the polls in Kearny.
