| Calling on President Obama to Commit Resources to Stop the Violence in Chicago |
| |
Vincent Bove calls upon President and Mrs.
Obama to establish a Stop the Violence
Olympics for Chicago-nothing less than a
full-force effort and allocation of resources
equal to that of the effort and resources
that would have been necessary to host the
Olympics. If hosting the Olympics would have
been worth the effort, then the saving of
lives from senseless bloodshed is so much
more worth it.

not only our communities, corporations,

| Bergenfield High School Marching Band: Inspiring Others through Music and Character |
| |
On Saturday, October 31, 2009 I attended the
Bergenfield High School home football game
and was greatly impressed by the talent,
discipline and character of the Bergenfield
High School Marching Band under the
leadership of Director Brian P. Timmons.
In the stands and on the field, the band is
truly outstanding and their music is filled
with energy, enthusiasm and excitement. This
is complimented by their impressive red
uniforms, accented by striking silver buttons
and surrounded by the movement of their flags
in perfect choreography with their
instruments, marching and musical precision.
