ong-time councilman Stephen Dalina has been selected as interim mayor of Monroe until a special election is held in November. The Township Council unanimously selected Dalina during a special meeting via Zoom on Jan. 20. He was sworn in with his wife Susan and two sons by his side. The Monroe Democratic Committee submitted three candidates for consideration – Dalina; Township Council President Miriam Cohen, who was serving as acting mayor after the passing of Mayor Gerald Tamburro on Dec. 31; and Terence “Terry” Van Dzura, president of the Monroe Township Democratic Club. In his comments, Dalina said he was humbled by the support from his fellow council members. He acknowledged his father, the late Stephen “Pete” Dalina, who was the longest serving Middlesex County freeholder. He passed away in 2013. “He’s always in my heart and I carry his guidance and wisdom with me every day of my life. He set the standard for being an outstanding public servant that I try to live up to,” he said, adding his brother and nephew also followed his father’s example. Dalina said he first took the challenge of “filling big shoes” when he became a councilman in 2011.
“Now I follow in Mayor Tamburro’s capable shoes,” he said. “I think from the many tributes over the last month since his passing, there’s no doubt that his tenacity, feistiness and character will leave an indebted mark on Monroe. Yes indeed, big, big shoes to fill.” Dalina said he looks at becoming interim mayor as an opportunity. “An opportunity for me to continue working for Monroe and to maintain our quality of life at the highest level,” he said. “I hope during my time on the council I have proven myself to be someone very open and willing to listen and someone who works for all the residents. Everyone on the council, past and current members, can attest to my willingness to collaborate to find new ways to work together for the betterment of all of our residents. I have always strived to act fairly and impartially throughout my years of public service. I promise to bring that philosophy with me into the mayor’s office, the same Steve just a new location. I am humbled by this opportunity and I welcome you all to join me on this journey.” Dalina said his initial focus as mayor will be the implementation of the COVID-19 vaccine in Monroe. “The groundwork has already been laid by our administration and council president,” he said.

After years of facing megalomaniacal supervillains, monsters wreaking havoc on Metropolis, and alien invaders intent on wiping out the human race, the world’s most famous superhero, The Man of Steel, aka Clark Kent (Tyler Hoechlin), and comic books’ most famous journalist, Lois Lane (Bitsie Tulloch), come face-to-face with one of their greatest challenges ever – dealing with all the stress, pressures and complexities that come with being working parents in today’s society. Complicating the already daunting job of raising two boys, Clark and Lois must also concern themselves with whether their sons, Jonathan (Jordan Elsass) and Jordan (Alexander Garfin), could inherit their father’s Kryptonian su-
perpowers as they grow older. Of course, there is never a dull moment in the life of a superhero, especially with Lois’ father, General Samuel Lane (Dylan Walsh) looking for Superman to vanquish a villain or save the day at a moment’s notice.

Manalapan crash claims lives of two young men from Spotswood MANALAPAN – A motor vehicle accident on Route 9 in Manalapan has claimed the lives of two young men from a Middlesex County community. According to the Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Office, at 9:31 p.m. Jan. 16, Manalapan police officers responded to a single-vehicle crash on Route 9 north in Manalapan.
The location of the crash was just south of Smallwood Lane at the entrance to the Monmouth Heights residential development. An investigation by the Monmouth County Serious Collision Analysis Response Team and the Manalapan Police Department determined that a 2004 Infiniti G35 was traveling north on the state high-
way when the driver lost control of the vehicle and left the road, according to the prosecutor’s office. The vehicle collided with a curb, a utility pole and a guardrail prior to coming to a stop in a wooded area that was about 100 yards from where the vehicle left the highway. There were two occupants in the vehi-
cle: the driver, Jonathan Ramirez, 20, and a passenger, Justin Rochford, 20, both of Spotswood, Middlesex County. According to the prosecutor’s office, Rochford was pronounced dead at the scene. Ramirez was taken to a hospital and was pronounced dead at 1:24 a.m.

Vaccine mega-site opens at convention center in Edison
M
iddlesex County and RWJBarnabas Health officials joined New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy in opening the Middlesex County Regional COVID-19 Vaccine Mega-Site in Edison on Jan. 15 at the New Jersey Convention & Exposition Center. The Edison vaccination mega-site is equipped with 20 vaccination stations and will be open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays. Administration of up to 2,400 COVID-19 vaccinations can occur at the site per day to qualified individuals as per the state’s priority guidelines, which now include individuals ages 65 and up, according to information provided by the Middlesex County Office of Communications. The Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines, both currently granted with Emergency Use Authorization by the FDA, will be administered at the site. Qualified individuals must pre-register online for an appointment to receive the vaccine at covid19.nj.gov. “We are pleased that Middlesex County has been selected as a vaccine mega-site destination and are proud to partner with a trusted name in healthcare, RWJBarnabas Health and the state on this historic effort,” County Commissioner Director, Ronald G. Rios, said in the statement. “Our county is fully equipped to provide the necessary resources and advanced infrastructure to deploy the COVID-19 vaccine safely and efficiently both at the mega-site and at our own vaccination sites. This vaccine is a powerful blow to the pandemic, but we need to continue to remain vigilant by wearing masks, socially distancing, and maintaining good hand hygiene.” “We are proud to partner with Middlesex County and Gov. Murphy in [setting] up this vaccination site here in Edison,” Barry H. Ostrowsky, president and chief executive officer for RWJBarnabas Health, said in the statement. “This mega-site represents the next vital step in getting this vaccine out into our communities so that we can turn the corner in this vicious battle against the virus and make our communities healthier.” The mega-site is currently vaccinating healthcare workers, staff and residents of long-term care facilities, members of law enforcement and emergency responders including police officers and firefighters.

Spotswood superintendent explains hybrid statistics By VASHTI HARRIS Staff Writer
SPOTSWOOD – On the first day back from winter break, Superintendent Graham Peabody updated the Board of Education about students’ hybrid schedule and attendance. Beginning its first school day of the New Year on Jan. 19, Peabody said the district relaunched its hybrid instruction schedule where students were placed into Cohort A or Cohort B. “Our population is divided into two groups A and B, with each cohort currently attending … in-person instruction twice a week,” he said. Peabody said students in Cohort A will attend school in person on Tuesdays and Wednesdays; students in Cohort B will attend school on Thursdays and Fridays. Using Google Sheets software, Peabody explained to the board current student population numbers and students’ hybrid instruction attendance at each school during the board meeting via video conference on Jan. 19. Currently, Peabody said Spotswood High School has 692 total students, and 146 are registered for Cohort A; however, on Jan. 19, 97 students were in attendance. Peabody said 166 students were registered for Cohort B. “Our total hybrid community at this point represents 44% of our total population, so that means the majority 56% of our students currently are indicating that they desire to be virtual,” Peabody said. “Then if you look at the actual Cohort A, the 146 that are scheduled for that they’ve selected hybrid, that is 21% of our total population, and Cohort B is 24% of our population.” For Memorial Middle School, Peabody said of the total student population of 344, 87 have registered for Cohort A. Out of the 87 students only 68 students were in attendance on Jan. 19. Peabody said 90 students are in Cohort B, making the total Memorial Middle School hybrid population 51%. Moving on to E.R. Appleby Elementary School, Peabody said the total student population is 333, with 102 students registered in Cohort A and 108 students registered in Cohort B. Out of the 102 students registered in Cohort A, 75 were in attendance on Jan. 19. The school’s total hybrid student population is 62%. At G. Austin Schoenly Elementary School, Peabody said the total student population is 213, with 85 students registered in Cohort A and 87 students registered in Cohort B. Out of the 85 students registered in Cohort A, 72 were in attendance. The
school’s total hybrid student population is 63%. “[On Jan. 19] the entry went very smoothly, probably based on our experience with entering back on Oct. 26, 2020, for our students, for parents, for staff,” Peabody said. “It really went very well this morning without a hiccup so I want to thank everybody involved. Obviously our administrators our staff, our parents, and our students for making that happen, and making that possible.” Now that school is back in session, Peabody said for the hybrid instruction the district will post a weekly internal school case report, in terms of staff and students who are positive, and then staff and students who are close contacts. “We will be adding presumed positives to that close contact category and new symptoms or symptomatic. Also we’ll have two categories: positive on its own and then everything else, close contact version positive and new symptoms in another column,” Peabody said. Updating the board and the public on the district’s current COVID-19 cases, Peabody said the district has one staff member who is positive and six who are close contacts who are presumed positives. The district has zero students who are positive but has 11 who are either close contacts presumed positive or showing COVID-19 symptoms. During the board’s public comment portion, resident Eileen Cella asked Peabody if social distance protocols in the schools’ classrooms, such as using hand sanitizer with the children, washing hands, and/or keeping students a safe distance from one another, are being done. “I can give you things in general but for the specific classroom if you reach out to the principal, they’ll be able to give you a snapshot of exactly what is happening in the different classrooms,” Peabody said. “So we have a screening form, [and] we have temperature checks. For students, obviously, we have sanitizer wipes and at all of our classrooms students are given time to wash their hands to sanitize, and our custodial staff is working throughout the buildings, doubling down on touch points.” Resident Jim Shearn asked Peabody that since the district closed the schools’ gyms, can the district revisit its plan and offer something more physically active for the students. Despite school social distancing protocols constantly being changed by the state, Peabody said he would look into this idea, see what the district can come up with, and return with an answer.

Novenas PRAYER IS POWERFUL Oh, most beautiful flower of Mount Carmel, fruitful vine of splendor of Heaven, Blessed Mother of the son of God, Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity. Oh, Star of the Sea, help me and show me herein you are my Mother. Oh, Holy Mary Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth! I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succor me in this petition. There are none that can withstand your power. Oh, show me herein you are my Mother. Oh Mary conceived without sin pray for us who have recourse in thee (3Xs). Holy Mother, I place this cause in your hands (3Xs). Holy Spirit, you who solve all problems, light all roads so I can attain my goal. You who gave me the divine gift to forgive and forget all evil against me and that in all instances in my life you are with me, I want in this short prayer to thank you for all things as you confirm once again that I never want to be separated from you in eternal glory. Thank you for your mercy towards me and mine. + Say this prayer 3 consecutive days and publish prayer after petition is granted. Do not despair. Additional advice and petition. Pray the Rosary regularly. F.A.M.
