The New Jersey Organ and Tissue Sharing Network (The Sharing Netshywork) reported today that the number o f organ and tissue donors was higher l i s t year than in the ten previous years a record breaker
The network recovered 1 3 4 organ donors a 28 raquo increase over 19 9 8 A total o f 4 4 4 transplants w ere pershyformed in New Jersey representing a 3 1 bull increase in transplants over 1 9 9 8
O ver a ten year period from 19 9 0 to 19 9 9 the actual number o f life-saving transplants performed in New Jersey increased 1 9 5
Joseph Roth President and Chief Executive Officer o f Thegrave Sharing Netshywork said that there was a total o f 2 7 8 1 7 hospital referrals reported in 1 9 9 9 a 4 3 percent increase over the 1 9 3 4 1 hospital referrals reported in 1 9 9 8 Roth attributed the substantial increase in organ donations and hosshypital referrals in part to additional stafTing o f specialized hospital sershyvices personnel at The Sharing Netshyw ork increased donor aw areness educational programs and a special emphasis on minority outreach a reshycent M edicare rule that requires hosshypitals to report all deaths or imminent deaths to the ir organ procurem ent organization
These efforts resulted in a 51 overshyall consent rate for organ donation an increase o f 3 over the 48 conshysent rate reported in 1998 ldquoWe are pleased that the donor family consent rate Is slowly but surely rising and we will continue our efforts to edushycate the public on the importance o f not only registering to become an orshygan donor but discussing the subshyject with your family as well said Roth
All New Jersey hospitals within The Sharing Netw orkrsquos service area parshyticipated with referrals and 63 out of 70 hospitals had an organ tissue or eye donor representing more coopshyeration by hospitals than ever before ldquoHoweverrdquo said Roth the sad fact o f the matter is that even with this success there are still not enough organs donated to meet the need We have a very diverse population in the state o f New Jersey and some groups are not contributing enough to meet th a d em an d rdquo He pointed out that 1100 people in New Jersey are on w aking lists with over 70000 people nationally ldquoThe shortage o f organs is a t crisis levels Roth said
The Sharing Network stated that New Jersey statistic helped to disshyp e l a myth that African-Americans laquonot the recipients o f transplanted orshygana New Jersey provides for minorshyity transplants in proportion to the population O f the transplants pershyformed in New Jersey last year 21were received by African-Americans8 by Latino-A m ericans 3 by
Asian Americans 65 by Caucashysians and 3 by other races
The Network also recovered recordnum bers for life-enhancing tissue donations with 105 bone donors 72 hearts for valves 67 skin and 320 eye donors
ldquoWe arc grateful to the donor famishylies who made it possible for so many people to receive a second chance at life said Roth ldquoand we will continueto work throughout2000 to spread the word about the life-saving benefits o forgan and tiaaue donationrdquo

Make Rutherford more pedestrian friendly
Our government is poisoning us and it has to stopThe federal Environmental Protection
Agency decreed nearly a decade ago that moshytorists in New Jersey and other heavily popushylated states must use a concoction known as reformulated gasoline to reduce carbon monshyoxide pollution One of the ingredients of this special blend gasoline is a chemical called methyl tertiary butyl ether or MTBE for short MTBE some scientists have discovered is a toxic substance that can and does leach into well water
A central New Jersey water company reshycently discovered that five of its wells were contaminated with unhealthy levels of MTBE - which is believed to be carcinogenic Those wells had to be shut down
How much MTBE is showing up in other water sources particularly private wells that are not subject to the rigorous testing of public wells is not known But given that there are thoushysands of gas stations in New Jersey many of which leak it is a safe bet that many private wells are polluted Surface water pollution by MTBE is probably less than in wells but a fedshyeral panel studying the issue found the chemishycal in lakes and reservoirs
The point is that there is no point to the govshyernment forcing upon its citizens the use of a deadly chemical No matter how well inten- tioned the EPA is in mandating MTBE to help clean our air the fact that it can poison our water should signal an immediate end to the mandate Citizens should not be handed a Hobsons choice from their government clean air or safe water but not both
The kicker is that there is scant evidence the MTBE really helps reduce air pollution by a heck of lot The second kicker is that most of the air pollution over New Jersey and New
York is delivered on prevailing westerly winds courtesy of our friendly factories and autos in the Midwest So even if the reformulated gasoshyline worked as advertised its greatest effect would be felt somewhere out over the Atlantic Ocean
The problem with federal attempts to clean the environment is that honest efforts are ofshyten intertwined with politically correct highly symbolic action that ignores good science The EPA uses bad science or incomplete science to justify policies and mandates that fly in the face of common sense
The EPA gained this power thanks to the 1990 Clear Air Act which a compliant Conshygress passed and President George Bush lacked the courage to veto Congress sucshycumbed to an environmental social activist lobby rather than stand up for sound science As a result it unleashed a tyranny of environshymental extremism which has given us far too many foolish and expensive burdens - such as the incomprehensibly illogical high occupancy highway lanes
It is long past the time when New Jerseys congressional delegation stopped kowtowing to the environmental extremists and started demanding some accountability from the EPA and its mandates Rep Steve Rothman and other Democrats should immediately join Rep Bob Franks in calling for an end to the flawed and obviously failing experiment with MTBE In fact they should go one step further than Franks and demand the MTBE experiment end immediately and not be phased out over three years Our congressional representashytives cannot condone federal policies that are poisoning our residents

A fter leading the Leaderrsquos frontshypage article o f March 2nd I felt the need to recap the events o f February 24thrsquos A ldquoSpecial Invitation as I reshycall them We began at 7 IS p jn anshynouncing that th e guest speaker choae not to be present and a belaquo we understood the reeaons for that decision The attendance was greater than usual We were seeing some people for the first or second tioie in our sixty plus workshop praaenta- tions over eight yeers This could be good The number (which always Inshycludes parents and teachers) was in itself exhilarating A parent advocate brought a video cameraquo and said she intended to tape our preoenter to help other parents and educators I wonshydered where and how I should have asked A representative of Adults with Learning Disabilities visited He had called ahead and asked to speakAfterwards Mrs Goodwin suggested
that we proceed around the room inshytro d u c in g o u rse lv e s E veryone stayed This began an informal sharshying that lasted until W O pjn The time included talk o f who we and our chil- ton were our hopes and frustrations as they related to educating children whh special needs and in some cases feelings about the invited speaker not being with us A t one point in our hours tofstber 1 began to take notes of concerns and topics as they wore mentioned I envisioned at least six great workshops that could follow We invited people to continue to attend meetings as well as help us in planshyning for the fttture Each member of the program committee smiled a gsnu- ine anile for Cindy Capitals camera Why not We were pleased A ldquoSpe- ciaT Invitation did what it does best It supported those there (and not there) hi work on behalf of exceptional children This is what ldquochild advoshycacyrdquo is all aboutrsquo
Then came the article with bold heading ldquoNew director a no-show a t parentsrsquo meetingOpted out due t o platform o f angerrsquordquo directly above a large photo o f our smiling faces Unshyderneath the photo was the report that in its totality implied our evening was spent discussing Mr Rubinfold e- mails anger and judgm ent This simshyply did not happenrsquo It would never happen It is in direct opposition to our mission statement So was the tenor o f the article We will continue to p ro m o te po sitiv e p a ren tp ro shyfessional partnerships and offer relshyevant informational workshops All sre still invited to Join us I can t help hut tell you though that for a while after reading this article in Leader I wished that I were a February 24th ldquono-show rdquo too

Organ donations save more lives
The New Jersey Organ and Tissue Sharing Network (The Sharing Netshywork) reported today that the number o f organ and tissue donors was higher l i s t year than in the ten previous years a record breaker
The network recovered 1 3 4 organ donors a 28 raquo increase over 19 9 8 A total o f 4 4 4 transplants w ere pershyformed in New Jersey representing a 3 1 bull increase in transplants over 1 9 9 8
O ver a ten year period from 19 9 0 to 19 9 9 the actual number o f life-saving transplants performed in New Jersey increased 1 9 5
Joseph Roth President and Chief Executive Officer o f Thegrave Sharing Netshywork said that there was a total o f 2 7 8 1 7 hospital referrals reported in 1 9 9 9 a 4 3 percent increase over the 1 9 3 4 1 hospital referrals reported in 1 9 9 8 Roth attributed the substantial increase in organ donations and hosshypital referrals in part to additional stafTing o f specialized hospital sershyvices personnel at The Sharing Netshyw ork increased donor aw areness educational programs and a special emphasis on minority outreach a reshycent M edicare rule that requires hosshypitals to report all deaths or imminent deaths to the ir organ procurem ent organization
These efforts resulted in a 51 overshyall consent rate for organ donation an increase o f 3 over the 48 conshysent rate reported in 1998 ldquoWe are pleased that the donor family consent rate Is slowly but surely rising and we will continue our efforts to edushycate the public on the importance o f not only registering to become an orshygan donor but discussing the subshyject with your family as well said Roth
All New Jersey hospitals within The Sharing Netw orkrsquos service area parshyticipated with referrals and 63 out of 70 hospitals had an organ tissue or eye donor representing more coopshyeration by hospitals than ever before ldquoHoweverrdquo said Roth the sad fact o f the matter is that even with this success there are still not enough organs donated to meet the need We have a very diverse population in the state o f New Jersey and some groups are not contributing enough to meet th a d em an d rdquo He pointed out that 1100 people in New Jersey are on w aking lists with over 70000 people nationally ldquoThe shortage o f organs is a t crisis levels Roth said
The Sharing Network stated that New Jersey statistic helped to disshyp e l a myth that African-Americans laquonot the recipients o f transplanted orshygana New Jersey provides for minorshyity transplants in proportion to the population O f the transplants pershyformed in New Jersey last year 21were received by African-Americans8 by Latino-A m ericans 3 by
Asian Americans 65 by Caucashysians and 3 by other races
The Network also recovered recordnum bers for life-enhancing tissue donations with 105 bone donors 72 hearts for valves 67 skin and 320 eye donors
ldquoWe arc grateful to the donor famishylies who made it possible for so many people to receive a second chance at life said Roth ldquoand we will continueto work throughout2000 to spread the word about the life-saving benefits o forgan and tiaaue donationrdquo

Make Rutherford more pedestrian friendly
Our government is poisoning us and it has to stopThe federal Environmental Protection
Agency decreed nearly a decade ago that moshytorists in New Jersey and other heavily popushylated states must use a concoction known as reformulated gasoline to reduce carbon monshyoxide pollution One of the ingredients of this special blend gasoline is a chemical called methyl tertiary butyl ether or MTBE for short MTBE some scientists have discovered is a toxic substance that can and does leach into well water
A central New Jersey water company reshycently discovered that five of its wells were contaminated with unhealthy levels of MTBE - which is believed to be carcinogenic Those wells had to be shut down
How much MTBE is showing up in other water sources particularly private wells that are not subject to the rigorous testing of public wells is not known But given that there are thoushysands of gas stations in New Jersey many of which leak it is a safe bet that many private wells are polluted Surface water pollution by MTBE is probably less than in wells but a fedshyeral panel studying the issue found the chemishycal in lakes and reservoirs
The point is that there is no point to the govshyernment forcing upon its citizens the use of a deadly chemical No matter how well inten- tioned the EPA is in mandating MTBE to help clean our air the fact that it can poison our water should signal an immediate end to the mandate Citizens should not be handed a Hobsons choice from their government clean air or safe water but not both
The kicker is that there is scant evidence the MTBE really helps reduce air pollution by a heck of lot The second kicker is that most of the air pollution over New Jersey and New
York is delivered on prevailing westerly winds courtesy of our friendly factories and autos in the Midwest So even if the reformulated gasoshyline worked as advertised its greatest effect would be felt somewhere out over the Atlantic Ocean
The problem with federal attempts to clean the environment is that honest efforts are ofshyten intertwined with politically correct highly symbolic action that ignores good science The EPA uses bad science or incomplete science to justify policies and mandates that fly in the face of common sense
The EPA gained this power thanks to the 1990 Clear Air Act which a compliant Conshygress passed and President George Bush lacked the courage to veto Congress sucshycumbed to an environmental social activist lobby rather than stand up for sound science As a result it unleashed a tyranny of environshymental extremism which has given us far too many foolish and expensive burdens - such as the incomprehensibly illogical high occupancy highway lanes
It is long past the time when New Jerseys congressional delegation stopped kowtowing to the environmental extremists and started demanding some accountability from the EPA and its mandates Rep Steve Rothman and other Democrats should immediately join Rep Bob Franks in calling for an end to the flawed and obviously failing experiment with MTBE In fact they should go one step further than Franks and demand the MTBE experiment end immediately and not be phased out over three years Our congressional representashytives cannot condone federal policies that are poisoning our residents

A fter leading the Leaderrsquos frontshypage article o f March 2nd I felt the need to recap the events o f February 24thrsquos A ldquoSpecial Invitation as I reshycall them We began at 7 IS p jn anshynouncing that th e guest speaker choae not to be present and a belaquo we understood the reeaons for that decision The attendance was greater than usual We were seeing some people for the first or second tioie in our sixty plus workshop praaenta- tions over eight yeers This could be good The number (which always Inshycludes parents and teachers) was in itself exhilarating A parent advocate brought a video cameraquo and said she intended to tape our preoenter to help other parents and educators I wonshydered where and how I should have asked A representative of Adults with Learning Disabilities visited He had called ahead and asked to speakAfterwards Mrs Goodwin suggested
that we proceed around the room inshytro d u c in g o u rse lv e s E veryone stayed This began an informal sharshying that lasted until W O pjn The time included talk o f who we and our chil- ton were our hopes and frustrations as they related to educating children whh special needs and in some cases feelings about the invited speaker not being with us A t one point in our hours tofstber 1 began to take notes of concerns and topics as they wore mentioned I envisioned at least six great workshops that could follow We invited people to continue to attend meetings as well as help us in planshyning for the fttture Each member of the program committee smiled a gsnu- ine anile for Cindy Capitals camera Why not We were pleased A ldquoSpe- ciaT Invitation did what it does best It supported those there (and not there) hi work on behalf of exceptional children This is what ldquochild advoshycacyrdquo is all aboutrsquo
Then came the article with bold heading ldquoNew director a no-show a t parentsrsquo meetingOpted out due t o platform o f angerrsquordquo directly above a large photo o f our smiling faces Unshyderneath the photo was the report that in its totality implied our evening was spent discussing Mr Rubinfold e- mails anger and judgm ent This simshyply did not happenrsquo It would never happen It is in direct opposition to our mission statement So was the tenor o f the article We will continue to p ro m o te po sitiv e p a ren tp ro shyfessional partnerships and offer relshyevant informational workshops All sre still invited to Join us I can t help hut tell you though that for a while after reading this article in Leader I wished that I were a February 24th ldquono-show rdquo too

Organ donations save more lives
The New Jersey Organ and Tissue Sharing Network (The Sharing Netshywork) reported today that the number o f organ and tissue donors was higher l i s t year than in the ten previous years a record breaker
The network recovered 1 3 4 organ donors a 28 raquo increase over 19 9 8 A total o f 4 4 4 transplants w ere pershyformed in New Jersey representing a 3 1 bull increase in transplants over 1 9 9 8
O ver a ten year period from 19 9 0 to 19 9 9 the actual number o f life-saving transplants performed in New Jersey increased 1 9 5
Joseph Roth President and Chief Executive Officer o f Thegrave Sharing Netshywork said that there was a total o f 2 7 8 1 7 hospital referrals reported in 1 9 9 9 a 4 3 percent increase over the 1 9 3 4 1 hospital referrals reported in 1 9 9 8 Roth attributed the substantial increase in organ donations and hosshypital referrals in part to additional stafTing o f specialized hospital sershyvices personnel at The Sharing Netshyw ork increased donor aw areness educational programs and a special emphasis on minority outreach a reshycent M edicare rule that requires hosshypitals to report all deaths or imminent deaths to the ir organ procurem ent organization
These efforts resulted in a 51 overshyall consent rate for organ donation an increase o f 3 over the 48 conshysent rate reported in 1998 ldquoWe are pleased that the donor family consent rate Is slowly but surely rising and we will continue our efforts to edushycate the public on the importance o f not only registering to become an orshygan donor but discussing the subshyject with your family as well said Roth
All New Jersey hospitals within The Sharing Netw orkrsquos service area parshyticipated with referrals and 63 out of 70 hospitals had an organ tissue or eye donor representing more coopshyeration by hospitals than ever before ldquoHoweverrdquo said Roth the sad fact o f the matter is that even with this success there are still not enough organs donated to meet the need We have a very diverse population in the state o f New Jersey and some groups are not contributing enough to meet th a d em an d rdquo He pointed out that 1100 people in New Jersey are on w aking lists with over 70000 people nationally ldquoThe shortage o f organs is a t crisis levels Roth said
The Sharing Network stated that New Jersey statistic helped to disshyp e l a myth that African-Americans laquonot the recipients o f transplanted orshygana New Jersey provides for minorshyity transplants in proportion to the population O f the transplants pershyformed in New Jersey last year 21were received by African-Americans8 by Latino-A m ericans 3 by
Asian Americans 65 by Caucashysians and 3 by other races
The Network also recovered recordnum bers for life-enhancing tissue donations with 105 bone donors 72 hearts for valves 67 skin and 320 eye donors
ldquoWe arc grateful to the donor famishylies who made it possible for so many people to receive a second chance at life said Roth ldquoand we will continueto work throughout2000 to spread the word about the life-saving benefits o forgan and tiaaue donationrdquo

Make Rutherford more pedestrian friendly
Our government is poisoning us and it has to stopThe federal Environmental Protection
Agency decreed nearly a decade ago that moshytorists in New Jersey and other heavily popushylated states must use a concoction known as reformulated gasoline to reduce carbon monshyoxide pollution One of the ingredients of this special blend gasoline is a chemical called methyl tertiary butyl ether or MTBE for short MTBE some scientists have discovered is a toxic substance that can and does leach into well water
A central New Jersey water company reshycently discovered that five of its wells were contaminated with unhealthy levels of MTBE - which is believed to be carcinogenic Those wells had to be shut down
How much MTBE is showing up in other water sources particularly private wells that are not subject to the rigorous testing of public wells is not known But given that there are thoushysands of gas stations in New Jersey many of which leak it is a safe bet that many private wells are polluted Surface water pollution by MTBE is probably less than in wells but a fedshyeral panel studying the issue found the chemishycal in lakes and reservoirs
The point is that there is no point to the govshyernment forcing upon its citizens the use of a deadly chemical No matter how well inten- tioned the EPA is in mandating MTBE to help clean our air the fact that it can poison our water should signal an immediate end to the mandate Citizens should not be handed a Hobsons choice from their government clean air or safe water but not both
The kicker is that there is scant evidence the MTBE really helps reduce air pollution by a heck of lot The second kicker is that most of the air pollution over New Jersey and New
York is delivered on prevailing westerly winds courtesy of our friendly factories and autos in the Midwest So even if the reformulated gasoshyline worked as advertised its greatest effect would be felt somewhere out over the Atlantic Ocean
The problem with federal attempts to clean the environment is that honest efforts are ofshyten intertwined with politically correct highly symbolic action that ignores good science The EPA uses bad science or incomplete science to justify policies and mandates that fly in the face of common sense
The EPA gained this power thanks to the 1990 Clear Air Act which a compliant Conshygress passed and President George Bush lacked the courage to veto Congress sucshycumbed to an environmental social activist lobby rather than stand up for sound science As a result it unleashed a tyranny of environshymental extremism which has given us far too many foolish and expensive burdens - such as the incomprehensibly illogical high occupancy highway lanes
It is long past the time when New Jerseys congressional delegation stopped kowtowing to the environmental extremists and started demanding some accountability from the EPA and its mandates Rep Steve Rothman and other Democrats should immediately join Rep Bob Franks in calling for an end to the flawed and obviously failing experiment with MTBE In fact they should go one step further than Franks and demand the MTBE experiment end immediately and not be phased out over three years Our congressional representashytives cannot condone federal policies that are poisoning our residents

A fter leading the Leaderrsquos frontshypage article o f March 2nd I felt the need to recap the events o f February 24thrsquos A ldquoSpecial Invitation as I reshycall them We began at 7 IS p jn anshynouncing that th e guest speaker choae not to be present and a belaquo we understood the reeaons for that decision The attendance was greater than usual We were seeing some people for the first or second tioie in our sixty plus workshop praaenta- tions over eight yeers This could be good The number (which always Inshycludes parents and teachers) was in itself exhilarating A parent advocate brought a video cameraquo and said she intended to tape our preoenter to help other parents and educators I wonshydered where and how I should have asked A representative of Adults with Learning Disabilities visited He had called ahead and asked to speakAfterwards Mrs Goodwin suggested
that we proceed around the room inshytro d u c in g o u rse lv e s E veryone stayed This began an informal sharshying that lasted until W O pjn The time included talk o f who we and our chil- ton were our hopes and frustrations as they related to educating children whh special needs and in some cases feelings about the invited speaker not being with us A t one point in our hours tofstber 1 began to take notes of concerns and topics as they wore mentioned I envisioned at least six great workshops that could follow We invited people to continue to attend meetings as well as help us in planshyning for the fttture Each member of the program committee smiled a gsnu- ine anile for Cindy Capitals camera Why not We were pleased A ldquoSpe- ciaT Invitation did what it does best It supported those there (and not there) hi work on behalf of exceptional children This is what ldquochild advoshycacyrdquo is all aboutrsquo
Then came the article with bold heading ldquoNew director a no-show a t parentsrsquo meetingOpted out due t o platform o f angerrsquordquo directly above a large photo o f our smiling faces Unshyderneath the photo was the report that in its totality implied our evening was spent discussing Mr Rubinfold e- mails anger and judgm ent This simshyply did not happenrsquo It would never happen It is in direct opposition to our mission statement So was the tenor o f the article We will continue to p ro m o te po sitiv e p a ren tp ro shyfessional partnerships and offer relshyevant informational workshops All sre still invited to Join us I can t help hut tell you though that for a while after reading this article in Leader I wished that I were a February 24th ldquono-show rdquo too

Organ donations save more lives
The New Jersey Organ and Tissue Sharing Network (The Sharing Netshywork) reported today that the number o f organ and tissue donors was higher l i s t year than in the ten previous years a record breaker
The network recovered 1 3 4 organ donors a 28 raquo increase over 19 9 8 A total o f 4 4 4 transplants w ere pershyformed in New Jersey representing a 3 1 bull increase in transplants over 1 9 9 8
O ver a ten year period from 19 9 0 to 19 9 9 the actual number o f life-saving transplants performed in New Jersey increased 1 9 5
Joseph Roth President and Chief Executive Officer o f Thegrave Sharing Netshywork said that there was a total o f 2 7 8 1 7 hospital referrals reported in 1 9 9 9 a 4 3 percent increase over the 1 9 3 4 1 hospital referrals reported in 1 9 9 8 Roth attributed the substantial increase in organ donations and hosshypital referrals in part to additional stafTing o f specialized hospital sershyvices personnel at The Sharing Netshyw ork increased donor aw areness educational programs and a special emphasis on minority outreach a reshycent M edicare rule that requires hosshypitals to report all deaths or imminent deaths to the ir organ procurem ent organization
These efforts resulted in a 51 overshyall consent rate for organ donation an increase o f 3 over the 48 conshysent rate reported in 1998 ldquoWe are pleased that the donor family consent rate Is slowly but surely rising and we will continue our efforts to edushycate the public on the importance o f not only registering to become an orshygan donor but discussing the subshyject with your family as well said Roth
All New Jersey hospitals within The Sharing Netw orkrsquos service area parshyticipated with referrals and 63 out of 70 hospitals had an organ tissue or eye donor representing more coopshyeration by hospitals than ever before ldquoHoweverrdquo said Roth the sad fact o f the matter is that even with this success there are still not enough organs donated to meet the need We have a very diverse population in the state o f New Jersey and some groups are not contributing enough to meet th a d em an d rdquo He pointed out that 1100 people in New Jersey are on w aking lists with over 70000 people nationally ldquoThe shortage o f organs is a t crisis levels Roth said
The Sharing Network stated that New Jersey statistic helped to disshyp e l a myth that African-Americans laquonot the recipients o f transplanted orshygana New Jersey provides for minorshyity transplants in proportion to the population O f the transplants pershyformed in New Jersey last year 21were received by African-Americans8 by Latino-A m ericans 3 by
Asian Americans 65 by Caucashysians and 3 by other races
The Network also recovered recordnum bers for life-enhancing tissue donations with 105 bone donors 72 hearts for valves 67 skin and 320 eye donors
ldquoWe arc grateful to the donor famishylies who made it possible for so many people to receive a second chance at life said Roth ldquoand we will continueto work throughout2000 to spread the word about the life-saving benefits o forgan and tiaaue donationrdquo

Make Rutherford more pedestrian friendly
Our government is poisoning us and it has to stopThe federal Environmental Protection
Agency decreed nearly a decade ago that moshytorists in New Jersey and other heavily popushylated states must use a concoction known as reformulated gasoline to reduce carbon monshyoxide pollution One of the ingredients of this special blend gasoline is a chemical called methyl tertiary butyl ether or MTBE for short MTBE some scientists have discovered is a toxic substance that can and does leach into well water
A central New Jersey water company reshycently discovered that five of its wells were contaminated with unhealthy levels of MTBE - which is believed to be carcinogenic Those wells had to be shut down
How much MTBE is showing up in other water sources particularly private wells that are not subject to the rigorous testing of public wells is not known But given that there are thoushysands of gas stations in New Jersey many of which leak it is a safe bet that many private wells are polluted Surface water pollution by MTBE is probably less than in wells but a fedshyeral panel studying the issue found the chemishycal in lakes and reservoirs
The point is that there is no point to the govshyernment forcing upon its citizens the use of a deadly chemical No matter how well inten- tioned the EPA is in mandating MTBE to help clean our air the fact that it can poison our water should signal an immediate end to the mandate Citizens should not be handed a Hobsons choice from their government clean air or safe water but not both
The kicker is that there is scant evidence the MTBE really helps reduce air pollution by a heck of lot The second kicker is that most of the air pollution over New Jersey and New
York is delivered on prevailing westerly winds courtesy of our friendly factories and autos in the Midwest So even if the reformulated gasoshyline worked as advertised its greatest effect would be felt somewhere out over the Atlantic Ocean
The problem with federal attempts to clean the environment is that honest efforts are ofshyten intertwined with politically correct highly symbolic action that ignores good science The EPA uses bad science or incomplete science to justify policies and mandates that fly in the face of common sense
The EPA gained this power thanks to the 1990 Clear Air Act which a compliant Conshygress passed and President George Bush lacked the courage to veto Congress sucshycumbed to an environmental social activist lobby rather than stand up for sound science As a result it unleashed a tyranny of environshymental extremism which has given us far too many foolish and expensive burdens - such as the incomprehensibly illogical high occupancy highway lanes
It is long past the time when New Jerseys congressional delegation stopped kowtowing to the environmental extremists and started demanding some accountability from the EPA and its mandates Rep Steve Rothman and other Democrats should immediately join Rep Bob Franks in calling for an end to the flawed and obviously failing experiment with MTBE In fact they should go one step further than Franks and demand the MTBE experiment end immediately and not be phased out over three years Our congressional representashytives cannot condone federal policies that are poisoning our residents

A fter leading the Leaderrsquos frontshypage article o f March 2nd I felt the need to recap the events o f February 24thrsquos A ldquoSpecial Invitation as I reshycall them We began at 7 IS p jn anshynouncing that th e guest speaker choae not to be present and a belaquo we understood the reeaons for that decision The attendance was greater than usual We were seeing some people for the first or second tioie in our sixty plus workshop praaenta- tions over eight yeers This could be good The number (which always Inshycludes parents and teachers) was in itself exhilarating A parent advocate brought a video cameraquo and said she intended to tape our preoenter to help other parents and educators I wonshydered where and how I should have asked A representative of Adults with Learning Disabilities visited He had called ahead and asked to speakAfterwards Mrs Goodwin suggested
that we proceed around the room inshytro d u c in g o u rse lv e s E veryone stayed This began an informal sharshying that lasted until W O pjn The time included talk o f who we and our chil- ton were our hopes and frustrations as they related to educating children whh special needs and in some cases feelings about the invited speaker not being with us A t one point in our hours tofstber 1 began to take notes of concerns and topics as they wore mentioned I envisioned at least six great workshops that could follow We invited people to continue to attend meetings as well as help us in planshyning for the fttture Each member of the program committee smiled a gsnu- ine anile for Cindy Capitals camera Why not We were pleased A ldquoSpe- ciaT Invitation did what it does best It supported those there (and not there) hi work on behalf of exceptional children This is what ldquochild advoshycacyrdquo is all aboutrsquo
Then came the article with bold heading ldquoNew director a no-show a t parentsrsquo meetingOpted out due t o platform o f angerrsquordquo directly above a large photo o f our smiling faces Unshyderneath the photo was the report that in its totality implied our evening was spent discussing Mr Rubinfold e- mails anger and judgm ent This simshyply did not happenrsquo It would never happen It is in direct opposition to our mission statement So was the tenor o f the article We will continue to p ro m o te po sitiv e p a ren tp ro shyfessional partnerships and offer relshyevant informational workshops All sre still invited to Join us I can t help hut tell you though that for a while after reading this article in Leader I wished that I were a February 24th ldquono-show rdquo too

The network recovered 1 3 4 organ donors a 28 raquo increase over 19 9 8 A total o f 4 4 4 transplants w ere pershyformed in New Jersey representing a 3 1 bull increase in transplants over 1 9 9 8
O ver a ten year period from 19 9 0 to 19 9 9 the actual number o f life-saving transplants performed in New Jersey increased 1 9 5
Joseph Roth President and Chief Executive Officer o f Thegrave Sharing Netshywork said that there was a total o f 2 7 8 1 7 hospital referrals reported in 1 9 9 9 a 4 3 percent increase over the 1 9 3 4 1 hospital referrals reported in 1 9 9 8 Roth attributed the substantial increase in organ donations and hosshypital referrals in part to additional stafTing o f specialized hospital sershyvices personnel at The Sharing Netshyw ork increased donor aw areness educational programs and a special emphasis on minority outreach a reshycent M edicare rule that requires hosshypitals to report all deaths or imminent deaths to the ir organ procurem ent organization
These efforts resulted in a 51 overshyall consent rate for organ donation an increase o f 3 over the 48 conshysent rate reported in 1998 ldquoWe are pleased that the donor family consent rate Is slowly but surely rising and we will continue our efforts to edushycate the public on the importance o f not only registering to become an orshygan donor but discussing the subshyject with your family as well said Roth
All New Jersey hospitals within The Sharing Netw orkrsquos service area parshyticipated with referrals and 63 out of 70 hospitals had an organ tissue or eye donor representing more coopshyeration by hospitals than ever before ldquoHoweverrdquo said Roth the sad fact o f the matter is that even with this success there are still not enough organs donated to meet the need We have a very diverse population in the state o f New Jersey and some groups are not contributing enough to meet th a d em an d rdquo He pointed out that 1100 people in New Jersey are on w aking lists with over 70000 people nationally ldquoThe shortage o f organs is a t crisis levels Roth said
The Sharing Network stated that New Jersey statistic helped to disshyp e l a myth that African-Americans laquonot the recipients o f transplanted orshygana New Jersey provides for minorshyity transplants in proportion to the population O f the transplants pershyformed in New Jersey last year 21were received by African-Americans8 by Latino-A m ericans 3 by
Asian Americans 65 by Caucashysians and 3 by other races
The Network also recovered recordnum bers for life-enhancing tissue donations with 105 bone donors 72 hearts for valves 67 skin and 320 eye donors
ldquoWe arc grateful to the donor famishylies who made it possible for so many people to receive a second chance at life said Roth ldquoand we will continueto work throughout2000 to spread the word about the life-saving benefits o forgan and tiaaue donationrdquo

Make Rutherford more pedestrian friendly
Our government is poisoning us and it has to stopThe federal Environmental Protection
Agency decreed nearly a decade ago that moshytorists in New Jersey and other heavily popushylated states must use a concoction known as reformulated gasoline to reduce carbon monshyoxide pollution One of the ingredients of this special blend gasoline is a chemical called methyl tertiary butyl ether or MTBE for short MTBE some scientists have discovered is a toxic substance that can and does leach into well water
A central New Jersey water company reshycently discovered that five of its wells were contaminated with unhealthy levels of MTBE - which is believed to be carcinogenic Those wells had to be shut down
How much MTBE is showing up in other water sources particularly private wells that are not subject to the rigorous testing of public wells is not known But given that there are thoushysands of gas stations in New Jersey many of which leak it is a safe bet that many private wells are polluted Surface water pollution by MTBE is probably less than in wells but a fedshyeral panel studying the issue found the chemishycal in lakes and reservoirs
The point is that there is no point to the govshyernment forcing upon its citizens the use of a deadly chemical No matter how well inten- tioned the EPA is in mandating MTBE to help clean our air the fact that it can poison our water should signal an immediate end to the mandate Citizens should not be handed a Hobsons choice from their government clean air or safe water but not both
The kicker is that there is scant evidence the MTBE really helps reduce air pollution by a heck of lot The second kicker is that most of the air pollution over New Jersey and New
York is delivered on prevailing westerly winds courtesy of our friendly factories and autos in the Midwest So even if the reformulated gasoshyline worked as advertised its greatest effect would be felt somewhere out over the Atlantic Ocean
The problem with federal attempts to clean the environment is that honest efforts are ofshyten intertwined with politically correct highly symbolic action that ignores good science The EPA uses bad science or incomplete science to justify policies and mandates that fly in the face of common sense
The EPA gained this power thanks to the 1990 Clear Air Act which a compliant Conshygress passed and President George Bush lacked the courage to veto Congress sucshycumbed to an environmental social activist lobby rather than stand up for sound science As a result it unleashed a tyranny of environshymental extremism which has given us far too many foolish and expensive burdens - such as the incomprehensibly illogical high occupancy highway lanes
It is long past the time when New Jerseys congressional delegation stopped kowtowing to the environmental extremists and started demanding some accountability from the EPA and its mandates Rep Steve Rothman and other Democrats should immediately join Rep Bob Franks in calling for an end to the flawed and obviously failing experiment with MTBE In fact they should go one step further than Franks and demand the MTBE experiment end immediately and not be phased out over three years Our congressional representashytives cannot condone federal policies that are poisoning our residents

A fter leading the Leaderrsquos frontshypage article o f March 2nd I felt the need to recap the events o f February 24thrsquos A ldquoSpecial Invitation as I reshycall them We began at 7 IS p jn anshynouncing that th e guest speaker choae not to be present and a belaquo we understood the reeaons for that decision The attendance was greater than usual We were seeing some people for the first or second tioie in our sixty plus workshop praaenta- tions over eight yeers This could be good The number (which always Inshycludes parents and teachers) was in itself exhilarating A parent advocate brought a video cameraquo and said she intended to tape our preoenter to help other parents and educators I wonshydered where and how I should have asked A representative of Adults with Learning Disabilities visited He had called ahead and asked to speakAfterwards Mrs Goodwin suggested
that we proceed around the room inshytro d u c in g o u rse lv e s E veryone stayed This began an informal sharshying that lasted until W O pjn The time included talk o f who we and our chil- ton were our hopes and frustrations as they related to educating children whh special needs and in some cases feelings about the invited speaker not being with us A t one point in our hours tofstber 1 began to take notes of concerns and topics as they wore mentioned I envisioned at least six great workshops that could follow We invited people to continue to attend meetings as well as help us in planshyning for the fttture Each member of the program committee smiled a gsnu- ine anile for Cindy Capitals camera Why not We were pleased A ldquoSpe- ciaT Invitation did what it does best It supported those there (and not there) hi work on behalf of exceptional children This is what ldquochild advoshycacyrdquo is all aboutrsquo
Then came the article with bold heading ldquoNew director a no-show a t parentsrsquo meetingOpted out due t o platform o f angerrsquordquo directly above a large photo o f our smiling faces Unshyderneath the photo was the report that in its totality implied our evening was spent discussing Mr Rubinfold e- mails anger and judgm ent This simshyply did not happenrsquo It would never happen It is in direct opposition to our mission statement So was the tenor o f the article We will continue to p ro m o te po sitiv e p a ren tp ro shyfessional partnerships and offer relshyevant informational workshops All sre still invited to Join us I can t help hut tell you though that for a while after reading this article in Leader I wished that I were a February 24th ldquono-show rdquo too

Organ donations save more lives
The New Jersey Organ and Tissue Sharing Network (The Sharing Netshywork) reported today that the number o f organ and tissue donors was higher l i s t year than in the ten previous years a record breaker
The network recovered 1 3 4 organ donors a 28 raquo increase over 19 9 8 A total o f 4 4 4 transplants w ere pershyformed in New Jersey representing a 3 1 bull increase in transplants over 1 9 9 8
O ver a ten year period from 19 9 0 to 19 9 9 the actual number o f life-saving transplants performed in New Jersey increased 1 9 5
Joseph Roth President and Chief Executive Officer o f Thegrave Sharing Netshywork said that there was a total o f 2 7 8 1 7 hospital referrals reported in 1 9 9 9 a 4 3 percent increase over the 1 9 3 4 1 hospital referrals reported in 1 9 9 8 Roth attributed the substantial increase in organ donations and hosshypital referrals in part to additional stafTing o f specialized hospital sershyvices personnel at The Sharing Netshyw ork increased donor aw areness educational programs and a special emphasis on minority outreach a reshycent M edicare rule that requires hosshypitals to report all deaths or imminent deaths to the ir organ procurem ent organization
These efforts resulted in a 51 overshyall consent rate for organ donation an increase o f 3 over the 48 conshysent rate reported in 1998 ldquoWe are pleased that the donor family consent rate Is slowly but surely rising and we will continue our efforts to edushycate the public on the importance o f not only registering to become an orshygan donor but discussing the subshyject with your family as well said Roth
All New Jersey hospitals within The Sharing Netw orkrsquos service area parshyticipated with referrals and 63 out of 70 hospitals had an organ tissue or eye donor representing more coopshyeration by hospitals than ever before ldquoHoweverrdquo said Roth the sad fact o f the matter is that even with this success there are still not enough organs donated to meet the need We have a very diverse population in the state o f New Jersey and some groups are not contributing enough to meet th a d em an d rdquo He pointed out that 1100 people in New Jersey are on w aking lists with over 70000 people nationally ldquoThe shortage o f organs is a t crisis levels Roth said
The Sharing Network stated that New Jersey statistic helped to disshyp e l a myth that African-Americans laquonot the recipients o f transplanted orshygana New Jersey provides for minorshyity transplants in proportion to the population O f the transplants pershyformed in New Jersey last year 21were received by African-Americans8 by Latino-A m ericans 3 by
Asian Americans 65 by Caucashysians and 3 by other races
The Network also recovered recordnum bers for life-enhancing tissue donations with 105 bone donors 72 hearts for valves 67 skin and 320 eye donors
ldquoWe arc grateful to the donor famishylies who made it possible for so many people to receive a second chance at life said Roth ldquoand we will continueto work throughout2000 to spread the word about the life-saving benefits o forgan and tiaaue donationrdquo

Make Rutherford more pedestrian friendly
Our government is poisoning us and it has to stopThe federal Environmental Protection
Agency decreed nearly a decade ago that moshytorists in New Jersey and other heavily popushylated states must use a concoction known as reformulated gasoline to reduce carbon monshyoxide pollution One of the ingredients of this special blend gasoline is a chemical called methyl tertiary butyl ether or MTBE for short MTBE some scientists have discovered is a toxic substance that can and does leach into well water
A central New Jersey water company reshycently discovered that five of its wells were contaminated with unhealthy levels of MTBE - which is believed to be carcinogenic Those wells had to be shut down
How much MTBE is showing up in other water sources particularly private wells that are not subject to the rigorous testing of public wells is not known But given that there are thoushysands of gas stations in New Jersey many of which leak it is a safe bet that many private wells are polluted Surface water pollution by MTBE is probably less than in wells but a fedshyeral panel studying the issue found the chemishycal in lakes and reservoirs
The point is that there is no point to the govshyernment forcing upon its citizens the use of a deadly chemical No matter how well inten- tioned the EPA is in mandating MTBE to help clean our air the fact that it can poison our water should signal an immediate end to the mandate Citizens should not be handed a Hobsons choice from their government clean air or safe water but not both
The kicker is that there is scant evidence the MTBE really helps reduce air pollution by a heck of lot The second kicker is that most of the air pollution over New Jersey and New
York is delivered on prevailing westerly winds courtesy of our friendly factories and autos in the Midwest So even if the reformulated gasoshyline worked as advertised its greatest effect would be felt somewhere out over the Atlantic Ocean
The problem with federal attempts to clean the environment is that honest efforts are ofshyten intertwined with politically correct highly symbolic action that ignores good science The EPA uses bad science or incomplete science to justify policies and mandates that fly in the face of common sense
The EPA gained this power thanks to the 1990 Clear Air Act which a compliant Conshygress passed and President George Bush lacked the courage to veto Congress sucshycumbed to an environmental social activist lobby rather than stand up for sound science As a result it unleashed a tyranny of environshymental extremism which has given us far too many foolish and expensive burdens - such as the incomprehensibly illogical high occupancy highway lanes
It is long past the time when New Jerseys congressional delegation stopped kowtowing to the environmental extremists and started demanding some accountability from the EPA and its mandates Rep Steve Rothman and other Democrats should immediately join Rep Bob Franks in calling for an end to the flawed and obviously failing experiment with MTBE In fact they should go one step further than Franks and demand the MTBE experiment end immediately and not be phased out over three years Our congressional representashytives cannot condone federal policies that are poisoning our residents

A fter leading the Leaderrsquos frontshypage article o f March 2nd I felt the need to recap the events o f February 24thrsquos A ldquoSpecial Invitation as I reshycall them We began at 7 IS p jn anshynouncing that th e guest speaker choae not to be present and a belaquo we understood the reeaons for that decision The attendance was greater than usual We were seeing some people for the first or second tioie in our sixty plus workshop praaenta- tions over eight yeers This could be good The number (which always Inshycludes parents and teachers) was in itself exhilarating A parent advocate brought a video cameraquo and said she intended to tape our preoenter to help other parents and educators I wonshydered where and how I should have asked A representative of Adults with Learning Disabilities visited He had called ahead and asked to speakAfterwards Mrs Goodwin suggested
that we proceed around the room inshytro d u c in g o u rse lv e s E veryone stayed This began an informal sharshying that lasted until W O pjn The time included talk o f who we and our chil- ton were our hopes and frustrations as they related to educating children whh special needs and in some cases feelings about the invited speaker not being with us A t one point in our hours tofstber 1 began to take notes of concerns and topics as they wore mentioned I envisioned at least six great workshops that could follow We invited people to continue to attend meetings as well as help us in planshyning for the fttture Each member of the program committee smiled a gsnu- ine anile for Cindy Capitals camera Why not We were pleased A ldquoSpe- ciaT Invitation did what it does best It supported those there (and not there) hi work on behalf of exceptional children This is what ldquochild advoshycacyrdquo is all aboutrsquo
Then came the article with bold heading ldquoNew director a no-show a t parentsrsquo meetingOpted out due t o platform o f angerrsquordquo directly above a large photo o f our smiling faces Unshyderneath the photo was the report that in its totality implied our evening was spent discussing Mr Rubinfold e- mails anger and judgm ent This simshyply did not happenrsquo It would never happen It is in direct opposition to our mission statement So was the tenor o f the article We will continue to p ro m o te po sitiv e p a ren tp ro shyfessional partnerships and offer relshyevant informational workshops All sre still invited to Join us I can t help hut tell you though that for a while after reading this article in Leader I wished that I were a February 24th ldquono-show rdquo too

Organ donations save more lives
The New Jersey Organ and Tissue Sharing Network (The Sharing Netshywork) reported today that the number o f organ and tissue donors was higher l i s t year than in the ten previous years a record breaker
The network recovered 1 3 4 organ donors a 28 raquo increase over 19 9 8 A total o f 4 4 4 transplants w ere pershyformed in New Jersey representing a 3 1 bull increase in transplants over 1 9 9 8
O ver a ten year period from 19 9 0 to 19 9 9 the actual number o f life-saving transplants performed in New Jersey increased 1 9 5
Joseph Roth President and Chief Executive Officer o f Thegrave Sharing Netshywork said that there was a total o f 2 7 8 1 7 hospital referrals reported in 1 9 9 9 a 4 3 percent increase over the 1 9 3 4 1 hospital referrals reported in 1 9 9 8 Roth attributed the substantial increase in organ donations and hosshypital referrals in part to additional stafTing o f specialized hospital sershyvices personnel at The Sharing Netshyw ork increased donor aw areness educational programs and a special emphasis on minority outreach a reshycent M edicare rule that requires hosshypitals to report all deaths or imminent deaths to the ir organ procurem ent organization
These efforts resulted in a 51 overshyall consent rate for organ donation an increase o f 3 over the 48 conshysent rate reported in 1998 ldquoWe are pleased that the donor family consent rate Is slowly but surely rising and we will continue our efforts to edushycate the public on the importance o f not only registering to become an orshygan donor but discussing the subshyject with your family as well said Roth
All New Jersey hospitals within The Sharing Netw orkrsquos service area parshyticipated with referrals and 63 out of 70 hospitals had an organ tissue or eye donor representing more coopshyeration by hospitals than ever before ldquoHoweverrdquo said Roth the sad fact o f the matter is that even with this success there are still not enough organs donated to meet the need We have a very diverse population in the state o f New Jersey and some groups are not contributing enough to meet th a d em an d rdquo He pointed out that 1100 people in New Jersey are on w aking lists with over 70000 people nationally ldquoThe shortage o f organs is a t crisis levels Roth said
The Sharing Network stated that New Jersey statistic helped to disshyp e l a myth that African-Americans laquonot the recipients o f transplanted orshygana New Jersey provides for minorshyity transplants in proportion to the population O f the transplants pershyformed in New Jersey last year 21were received by African-Americans8 by Latino-A m ericans 3 by
Asian Americans 65 by Caucashysians and 3 by other races
The Network also recovered recordnum bers for life-enhancing tissue donations with 105 bone donors 72 hearts for valves 67 skin and 320 eye donors
ldquoWe arc grateful to the donor famishylies who made it possible for so many people to receive a second chance at life said Roth ldquoand we will continueto work throughout2000 to spread the word about the life-saving benefits o forgan and tiaaue donationrdquo

Make Rutherford more pedestrian friendly
Our government is poisoning us and it has to stopThe federal Environmental Protection
Agency decreed nearly a decade ago that moshytorists in New Jersey and other heavily popushylated states must use a concoction known as reformulated gasoline to reduce carbon monshyoxide pollution One of the ingredients of this special blend gasoline is a chemical called methyl tertiary butyl ether or MTBE for short MTBE some scientists have discovered is a toxic substance that can and does leach into well water
A central New Jersey water company reshycently discovered that five of its wells were contaminated with unhealthy levels of MTBE - which is believed to be carcinogenic Those wells had to be shut down
How much MTBE is showing up in other water sources particularly private wells that are not subject to the rigorous testing of public wells is not known But given that there are thoushysands of gas stations in New Jersey many of which leak it is a safe bet that many private wells are polluted Surface water pollution by MTBE is probably less than in wells but a fedshyeral panel studying the issue found the chemishycal in lakes and reservoirs
The point is that there is no point to the govshyernment forcing upon its citizens the use of a deadly chemical No matter how well inten- tioned the EPA is in mandating MTBE to help clean our air the fact that it can poison our water should signal an immediate end to the mandate Citizens should not be handed a Hobsons choice from their government clean air or safe water but not both
The kicker is that there is scant evidence the MTBE really helps reduce air pollution by a heck of lot The second kicker is that most of the air pollution over New Jersey and New
York is delivered on prevailing westerly winds courtesy of our friendly factories and autos in the Midwest So even if the reformulated gasoshyline worked as advertised its greatest effect would be felt somewhere out over the Atlantic Ocean
The problem with federal attempts to clean the environment is that honest efforts are ofshyten intertwined with politically correct highly symbolic action that ignores good science The EPA uses bad science or incomplete science to justify policies and mandates that fly in the face of common sense
The EPA gained this power thanks to the 1990 Clear Air Act which a compliant Conshygress passed and President George Bush lacked the courage to veto Congress sucshycumbed to an environmental social activist lobby rather than stand up for sound science As a result it unleashed a tyranny of environshymental extremism which has given us far too many foolish and expensive burdens - such as the incomprehensibly illogical high occupancy highway lanes
It is long past the time when New Jerseys congressional delegation stopped kowtowing to the environmental extremists and started demanding some accountability from the EPA and its mandates Rep Steve Rothman and other Democrats should immediately join Rep Bob Franks in calling for an end to the flawed and obviously failing experiment with MTBE In fact they should go one step further than Franks and demand the MTBE experiment end immediately and not be phased out over three years Our congressional representashytives cannot condone federal policies that are poisoning our residents

A fter leading the Leaderrsquos frontshypage article o f March 2nd I felt the need to recap the events o f February 24thrsquos A ldquoSpecial Invitation as I reshycall them We began at 7 IS p jn anshynouncing that th e guest speaker choae not to be present and a belaquo we understood the reeaons for that decision The attendance was greater than usual We were seeing some people for the first or second tioie in our sixty plus workshop praaenta- tions over eight yeers This could be good The number (which always Inshycludes parents and teachers) was in itself exhilarating A parent advocate brought a video cameraquo and said she intended to tape our preoenter to help other parents and educators I wonshydered where and how I should have asked A representative of Adults with Learning Disabilities visited He had called ahead and asked to speakAfterwards Mrs Goodwin suggested
that we proceed around the room inshytro d u c in g o u rse lv e s E veryone stayed This began an informal sharshying that lasted until W O pjn The time included talk o f who we and our chil- ton were our hopes and frustrations as they related to educating children whh special needs and in some cases feelings about the invited speaker not being with us A t one point in our hours tofstber 1 began to take notes of concerns and topics as they wore mentioned I envisioned at least six great workshops that could follow We invited people to continue to attend meetings as well as help us in planshyning for the fttture Each member of the program committee smiled a gsnu- ine anile for Cindy Capitals camera Why not We were pleased A ldquoSpe- ciaT Invitation did what it does best It supported those there (and not there) hi work on behalf of exceptional children This is what ldquochild advoshycacyrdquo is all aboutrsquo
Then came the article with bold heading ldquoNew director a no-show a t parentsrsquo meetingOpted out due t o platform o f angerrsquordquo directly above a large photo o f our smiling faces Unshyderneath the photo was the report that in its totality implied our evening was spent discussing Mr Rubinfold e- mails anger and judgm ent This simshyply did not happenrsquo It would never happen It is in direct opposition to our mission statement So was the tenor o f the article We will continue to p ro m o te po sitiv e p a ren tp ro shyfessional partnerships and offer relshyevant informational workshops All sre still invited to Join us I can t help hut tell you though that for a while after reading this article in Leader I wished that I were a February 24th ldquono-show rdquo too

Make Rutherford more pedestrian friendly
Our government is poisoning us and it has to stopThe federal Environmental Protection
Agency decreed nearly a decade ago that moshytorists in New Jersey and other heavily popushylated states must use a concoction known as reformulated gasoline to reduce carbon monshyoxide pollution One of the ingredients of this special blend gasoline is a chemical called methyl tertiary butyl ether or MTBE for short MTBE some scientists have discovered is a toxic substance that can and does leach into well water
A central New Jersey water company reshycently discovered that five of its wells were contaminated with unhealthy levels of MTBE - which is believed to be carcinogenic Those wells had to be shut down
How much MTBE is showing up in other water sources particularly private wells that are not subject to the rigorous testing of public wells is not known But given that there are thoushysands of gas stations in New Jersey many of which leak it is a safe bet that many private wells are polluted Surface water pollution by MTBE is probably less than in wells but a fedshyeral panel studying the issue found the chemishycal in lakes and reservoirs
The point is that there is no point to the govshyernment forcing upon its citizens the use of a deadly chemical No matter how well inten- tioned the EPA is in mandating MTBE to help clean our air the fact that it can poison our water should signal an immediate end to the mandate Citizens should not be handed a Hobsons choice from their government clean air or safe water but not both
The kicker is that there is scant evidence the MTBE really helps reduce air pollution by a heck of lot The second kicker is that most of the air pollution over New Jersey and New
York is delivered on prevailing westerly winds courtesy of our friendly factories and autos in the Midwest So even if the reformulated gasoshyline worked as advertised its greatest effect would be felt somewhere out over the Atlantic Ocean
The problem with federal attempts to clean the environment is that honest efforts are ofshyten intertwined with politically correct highly symbolic action that ignores good science The EPA uses bad science or incomplete science to justify policies and mandates that fly in the face of common sense
The EPA gained this power thanks to the 1990 Clear Air Act which a compliant Conshygress passed and President George Bush lacked the courage to veto Congress sucshycumbed to an environmental social activist lobby rather than stand up for sound science As a result it unleashed a tyranny of environshymental extremism which has given us far too many foolish and expensive burdens - such as the incomprehensibly illogical high occupancy highway lanes
It is long past the time when New Jerseys congressional delegation stopped kowtowing to the environmental extremists and started demanding some accountability from the EPA and its mandates Rep Steve Rothman and other Democrats should immediately join Rep Bob Franks in calling for an end to the flawed and obviously failing experiment with MTBE In fact they should go one step further than Franks and demand the MTBE experiment end immediately and not be phased out over three years Our congressional representashytives cannot condone federal policies that are poisoning our residents

A fter leading the Leaderrsquos frontshypage article o f March 2nd I felt the need to recap the events o f February 24thrsquos A ldquoSpecial Invitation as I reshycall them We began at 7 IS p jn anshynouncing that th e guest speaker choae not to be present and a belaquo we understood the reeaons for that decision The attendance was greater than usual We were seeing some people for the first or second tioie in our sixty plus workshop praaenta- tions over eight yeers This could be good The number (which always Inshycludes parents and teachers) was in itself exhilarating A parent advocate brought a video cameraquo and said she intended to tape our preoenter to help other parents and educators I wonshydered where and how I should have asked A representative of Adults with Learning Disabilities visited He had called ahead and asked to speakAfterwards Mrs Goodwin suggested
that we proceed around the room inshytro d u c in g o u rse lv e s E veryone stayed This began an informal sharshying that lasted until W O pjn The time included talk o f who we and our chil- ton were our hopes and frustrations as they related to educating children whh special needs and in some cases feelings about the invited speaker not being with us A t one point in our hours tofstber 1 began to take notes of concerns and topics as they wore mentioned I envisioned at least six great workshops that could follow We invited people to continue to attend meetings as well as help us in planshyning for the fttture Each member of the program committee smiled a gsnu- ine anile for Cindy Capitals camera Why not We were pleased A ldquoSpe- ciaT Invitation did what it does best It supported those there (and not there) hi work on behalf of exceptional children This is what ldquochild advoshycacyrdquo is all aboutrsquo
Then came the article with bold heading ldquoNew director a no-show a t parentsrsquo meetingOpted out due t o platform o f angerrsquordquo directly above a large photo o f our smiling faces Unshyderneath the photo was the report that in its totality implied our evening was spent discussing Mr Rubinfold e- mails anger and judgm ent This simshyply did not happenrsquo It would never happen It is in direct opposition to our mission statement So was the tenor o f the article We will continue to p ro m o te po sitiv e p a ren tp ro shyfessional partnerships and offer relshyevant informational workshops All sre still invited to Join us I can t help hut tell you though that for a while after reading this article in Leader I wished that I were a February 24th ldquono-show rdquo too

Make Rutherford more pedestrian friendly
Our government is poisoning us and it has to stopThe federal Environmental Protection
Agency decreed nearly a decade ago that moshytorists in New Jersey and other heavily popushylated states must use a concoction known as reformulated gasoline to reduce carbon monshyoxide pollution One of the ingredients of this special blend gasoline is a chemical called methyl tertiary butyl ether or MTBE for short MTBE some scientists have discovered is a toxic substance that can and does leach into well water
A central New Jersey water company reshycently discovered that five of its wells were contaminated with unhealthy levels of MTBE - which is believed to be carcinogenic Those wells had to be shut down
How much MTBE is showing up in other water sources particularly private wells that are not subject to the rigorous testing of public wells is not known But given that there are thoushysands of gas stations in New Jersey many of which leak it is a safe bet that many private wells are polluted Surface water pollution by MTBE is probably less than in wells but a fedshyeral panel studying the issue found the chemishycal in lakes and reservoirs
The point is that there is no point to the govshyernment forcing upon its citizens the use of a deadly chemical No matter how well inten- tioned the EPA is in mandating MTBE to help clean our air the fact that it can poison our water should signal an immediate end to the mandate Citizens should not be handed a Hobsons choice from their government clean air or safe water but not both
The kicker is that there is scant evidence the MTBE really helps reduce air pollution by a heck of lot The second kicker is that most of the air pollution over New Jersey and New
York is delivered on prevailing westerly winds courtesy of our friendly factories and autos in the Midwest So even if the reformulated gasoshyline worked as advertised its greatest effect would be felt somewhere out over the Atlantic Ocean
The problem with federal attempts to clean the environment is that honest efforts are ofshyten intertwined with politically correct highly symbolic action that ignores good science The EPA uses bad science or incomplete science to justify policies and mandates that fly in the face of common sense
The EPA gained this power thanks to the 1990 Clear Air Act which a compliant Conshygress passed and President George Bush lacked the courage to veto Congress sucshycumbed to an environmental social activist lobby rather than stand up for sound science As a result it unleashed a tyranny of environshymental extremism which has given us far too many foolish and expensive burdens - such as the incomprehensibly illogical high occupancy highway lanes
It is long past the time when New Jerseys congressional delegation stopped kowtowing to the environmental extremists and started demanding some accountability from the EPA and its mandates Rep Steve Rothman and other Democrats should immediately join Rep Bob Franks in calling for an end to the flawed and obviously failing experiment with MTBE In fact they should go one step further than Franks and demand the MTBE experiment end immediately and not be phased out over three years Our congressional representashytives cannot condone federal policies that are poisoning our residents

A fter leading the Leaderrsquos frontshypage article o f March 2nd I felt the need to recap the events o f February 24thrsquos A ldquoSpecial Invitation as I reshycall them We began at 7 IS p jn anshynouncing that th e guest speaker choae not to be present and a belaquo we understood the reeaons for that decision The attendance was greater than usual We were seeing some people for the first or second tioie in our sixty plus workshop praaenta- tions over eight yeers This could be good The number (which always Inshycludes parents and teachers) was in itself exhilarating A parent advocate brought a video cameraquo and said she intended to tape our preoenter to help other parents and educators I wonshydered where and how I should have asked A representative of Adults with Learning Disabilities visited He had called ahead and asked to speakAfterwards Mrs Goodwin suggested
that we proceed around the room inshytro d u c in g o u rse lv e s E veryone stayed This began an informal sharshying that lasted until W O pjn The time included talk o f who we and our chil- ton were our hopes and frustrations as they related to educating children whh special needs and in some cases feelings about the invited speaker not being with us A t one point in our hours tofstber 1 began to take notes of concerns and topics as they wore mentioned I envisioned at least six great workshops that could follow We invited people to continue to attend meetings as well as help us in planshyning for the fttture Each member of the program committee smiled a gsnu- ine anile for Cindy Capitals camera Why not We were pleased A ldquoSpe- ciaT Invitation did what it does best It supported those there (and not there) hi work on behalf of exceptional children This is what ldquochild advoshycacyrdquo is all aboutrsquo
Then came the article with bold heading ldquoNew director a no-show a t parentsrsquo meetingOpted out due t o platform o f angerrsquordquo directly above a large photo o f our smiling faces Unshyderneath the photo was the report that in its totality implied our evening was spent discussing Mr Rubinfold e- mails anger and judgm ent This simshyply did not happenrsquo It would never happen It is in direct opposition to our mission statement So was the tenor o f the article We will continue to p ro m o te po sitiv e p a ren tp ro shyfessional partnerships and offer relshyevant informational workshops All sre still invited to Join us I can t help hut tell you though that for a while after reading this article in Leader I wished that I were a February 24th ldquono-show rdquo too

Make Rutherford more pedestrian friendly
Our government is poisoning us and it has to stopThe federal Environmental Protection
Agency decreed nearly a decade ago that moshytorists in New Jersey and other heavily popushylated states must use a concoction known as reformulated gasoline to reduce carbon monshyoxide pollution One of the ingredients of this special blend gasoline is a chemical called methyl tertiary butyl ether or MTBE for short MTBE some scientists have discovered is a toxic substance that can and does leach into well water
A central New Jersey water company reshycently discovered that five of its wells were contaminated with unhealthy levels of MTBE - which is believed to be carcinogenic Those wells had to be shut down
How much MTBE is showing up in other water sources particularly private wells that are not subject to the rigorous testing of public wells is not known But given that there are thoushysands of gas stations in New Jersey many of which leak it is a safe bet that many private wells are polluted Surface water pollution by MTBE is probably less than in wells but a fedshyeral panel studying the issue found the chemishycal in lakes and reservoirs
The point is that there is no point to the govshyernment forcing upon its citizens the use of a deadly chemical No matter how well inten- tioned the EPA is in mandating MTBE to help clean our air the fact that it can poison our water should signal an immediate end to the mandate Citizens should not be handed a Hobsons choice from their government clean air or safe water but not both
The kicker is that there is scant evidence the MTBE really helps reduce air pollution by a heck of lot The second kicker is that most of the air pollution over New Jersey and New
York is delivered on prevailing westerly winds courtesy of our friendly factories and autos in the Midwest So even if the reformulated gasoshyline worked as advertised its greatest effect would be felt somewhere out over the Atlantic Ocean
The problem with federal attempts to clean the environment is that honest efforts are ofshyten intertwined with politically correct highly symbolic action that ignores good science The EPA uses bad science or incomplete science to justify policies and mandates that fly in the face of common sense
The EPA gained this power thanks to the 1990 Clear Air Act which a compliant Conshygress passed and President George Bush lacked the courage to veto Congress sucshycumbed to an environmental social activist lobby rather than stand up for sound science As a result it unleashed a tyranny of environshymental extremism which has given us far too many foolish and expensive burdens - such as the incomprehensibly illogical high occupancy highway lanes
It is long past the time when New Jerseys congressional delegation stopped kowtowing to the environmental extremists and started demanding some accountability from the EPA and its mandates Rep Steve Rothman and other Democrats should immediately join Rep Bob Franks in calling for an end to the flawed and obviously failing experiment with MTBE In fact they should go one step further than Franks and demand the MTBE experiment end immediately and not be phased out over three years Our congressional representashytives cannot condone federal policies that are poisoning our residents

A fter leading the Leaderrsquos frontshypage article o f March 2nd I felt the need to recap the events o f February 24thrsquos A ldquoSpecial Invitation as I reshycall them We began at 7 IS p jn anshynouncing that th e guest speaker choae not to be present and a belaquo we understood the reeaons for that decision The attendance was greater than usual We were seeing some people for the first or second tioie in our sixty plus workshop praaenta- tions over eight yeers This could be good The number (which always Inshycludes parents and teachers) was in itself exhilarating A parent advocate brought a video cameraquo and said she intended to tape our preoenter to help other parents and educators I wonshydered where and how I should have asked A representative of Adults with Learning Disabilities visited He had called ahead and asked to speakAfterwards Mrs Goodwin suggested
that we proceed around the room inshytro d u c in g o u rse lv e s E veryone stayed This began an informal sharshying that lasted until W O pjn The time included talk o f who we and our chil- ton were our hopes and frustrations as they related to educating children whh special needs and in some cases feelings about the invited speaker not being with us A t one point in our hours tofstber 1 began to take notes of concerns and topics as they wore mentioned I envisioned at least six great workshops that could follow We invited people to continue to attend meetings as well as help us in planshyning for the fttture Each member of the program committee smiled a gsnu- ine anile for Cindy Capitals camera Why not We were pleased A ldquoSpe- ciaT Invitation did what it does best It supported those there (and not there) hi work on behalf of exceptional children This is what ldquochild advoshycacyrdquo is all aboutrsquo
Then came the article with bold heading ldquoNew director a no-show a t parentsrsquo meetingOpted out due t o platform o f angerrsquordquo directly above a large photo o f our smiling faces Unshyderneath the photo was the report that in its totality implied our evening was spent discussing Mr Rubinfold e- mails anger and judgm ent This simshyply did not happenrsquo It would never happen It is in direct opposition to our mission statement So was the tenor o f the article We will continue to p ro m o te po sitiv e p a ren tp ro shyfessional partnerships and offer relshyevant informational workshops All sre still invited to Join us I can t help hut tell you though that for a while after reading this article in Leader I wished that I were a February 24th ldquono-show rdquo too
