Jammin for Jaclyn features eight acts performing virtually By MATTHEW SOCKOL Staff Writer

A

n annual benefit concert for people fighting cancer will hold its eighth event remotely while raising donations for a local business owner. The eighth annual Jammin for Jaclyn Benefit Concert will be streamed through Facebook Live on June 12 through the handle @JamminforJaclyn. It is scheduled to run from 7 to 10 p.m. This year’s beneficiary is Brian Da Silva, who is battling pancreatic cancer, ac-

cording to the event organizers. Da Silva is a lifelong resident of Elizabeth and owns CBR Towing and Recovery, LLC, a towing company. Individuals may donate to the benefit online at https://givebutter.com/JamminforJaclyn2021 or by texting J4J2021 to 202-858-1233. The benefit also accepts checks made out to “RJC Charities Inc.” and sent to Jammin for Jaclyn, 292 Stevens Ave., South Amboy 08879. There will be eight musical acts performing remotely from their homes, along

with a 50/50 drawing at the end of the night, according to the event organizers. The eight musical acts, in order of scheduled appearance, are The Foes of Fern, Levy Okun, Sof, Natalie Farrell, Sahara Moon, Jake Tavill, Nick Ryan and Taylor Tote. Jammin for Jaclyn was founded after Ron and Denise Morgan’s daughter, Jaclyn Squillace, was diagnosed with stage III breast cancer. As their son Michael is (Continued on page 10)

aw enforcement officers around the country will crack down on unbuckled motorists and passengers as part of the national Click it or Ticket campaign. From May 24 through June 6, the annual Click It or Ticket national mobilization utilizes high visibility seat belt checkpoints and saturation patrols, in combination with local and national publicity efforts, to reiterate the lifesaving value of seat belts. “Using a seat belt is the simplest way for motor vehicle occupants to protect themselves on the road,” Eric Heitmann, director of the New Jersey Division of Highway Traffic Safety, said in a prepared statement. “Crash statistics show that in 2017 alone, seat belt use saved nearly 15,000 lives nationally.” In New Jersey, a key focus of this year’s Click It or Ticket campaign is to promote seat belt usage by adults in all seating positions in the vehicle, both front and rear seats. The front seat belt usage rate in New Jersey currently stands at 90.23%. However, adults riding in rear seats are buckling up at a significantly lower rate, only 48% according to the most recent surveys, according to the statement. “For whatever reason there seems to be a disconnect with people feeling they don’t need to buckle up when riding as passengers in rear seats, and this is a concern,” Heitmann said in the statement. “By promoting back seat usage of seat belts during our Click It or Ticket campaign, we’re encouraging passenger habits that will save lives.” The 2020 Click It or Ticket mobilization was cancelled due to the COVID public health emergency. During the 2019 Click it or Ticket campaign, 343 New Jersey police agencies participated in the two-week initiative. As a result of the effort, law enforcement officers issued 14,548 seat belt citations, 5,670 speeding summonses and made 858 impaired driving arrests, according to the statement.

I am so grateful to everyone who supported the golf outing and who answered our call to help ensure that we are able to provide Old Bridge and the surrounding communities with the best possible emergency care services.” Construction of the new Emergency Department at Raritan Bay, part of a $39 million investment, began in 2019. In April, the medical center opened phase one of the project: a new concourse, café and front patient/visitor parking lot, all part of the transformation. The new Emergency Department is slated to open in February 2022; however, the medical center remains open to the public for all emergent and outpatient needs throughout construction. Although the event has passed, donations can still be made in support of the Emergency Department project by visiting give.hackensackmeridianhealth.org/ RBMCGolf, by calling 201-519-2446, or by emailing paige.cooper@hmhn.org.

OLD BRIDGE - Raritan Bay Medical Center Foundation raised nearly $150,000 for the Emergency Department expansion at its Old Bridge hospital. The fundraising golf outing took place at Manasquan River Golf Club in Brielle on May 3 in support of the expansion project taking place at Hackensack Meridian Raritan Bay Medical Center on Route 18 in Old Bridge. Nearly 100 golfers participated in the event, which followed all CDC, state and local safety guidelines, according to information provided by Hackensack Meridian Health. “We could not have asked for a more perfect day, with a more genuine and dedicated group of golfers,” Melissa Magyar, executive director, Raritan Bay Medical Center Foundation, said in the statement. “We recognize that many people are still being impacted by COVID-19, but for this one, glorious day, when we could all safely gather together in support of an immensely important fundraising initiative, it

ON THE ROAD PETER PERROTTA

2021 Mercedes-Maybach GLS600 4matic

S

ome of us have dream jobs, others own dream cars. I have never owned a dream car, but for many years when I was a fulltime working journalist, I was working my dream job – I was getting paid to be a writer. Sometime in the early 2000s – my memory is a bit fuzzy – I left the full-time world of professional journalism and embarked on a second career in the car business. I started out selling Honda’s and ended up selling Mercedes Benz. When you enter the world of Mercedes, it truly is an eye-opening experience. I met people who not only had their dream jobs but enjoyed their dream cars as well. Many of my upper crust Mercedes clients not only owned one dream car, but several, as well as a few dream houses. The SUV I am reviewing this week – the 2021 Mercedes Maybach GLS600 4matic – is Peter Perrotta at the top of the list of dream cars. In fact, it was a dream for me to get to drive this elegant, state-of-the-art machine for one week that carries a hefty price tag of $171,600. This vehicle, a brand new trim level of the GLS model for Mercedes, is a show stopping head turner. Several people gave me the thumbs up sign as I passed them on the road, gas station attendants ogled, it and others just dead stopped me to tell me how much they admired my ride. Instead of trying to explain to everyone that it’s not my car, I’m just driving it for a week to review it, I’ve learned to just nod my head in response and smile – there is a lot less to explain that way. This Maybach Mercedes is nothing short of opulent, inside and out. From the very first moment you press the unlock button on the key fob and the side steps elegantly slide out automatically, you know you are in for a treat. Once inside this world of luxury, the amenities are overwhelming.

2021 Mercedes-Maybach GLS600 4matic

There are the executive recliner-like leather rear seats that are a finger’s touch away from a center console mounted Samsung Galaxy tablet and a refrigerated wine or champagne cooler. The rear seats come with brushed suede covered mini pillows for which you can prop your weary head. There are champagne flute holders in the rear console as well as folding tables to rest your bubbly and foie gras on. From the driver’s cockpit you settle behind a leather-wrapped steering wheel, to the right of which sits a dazzling stateof-the-art infotainment screen. The suede head liner and huge panoramic moon roof lend a nice airy feel to the cockpit. The Burmester 3D surround sound music system fits in well with the Italian Nappa leather seats and the black flamed natural ash wood trim. And once it gets dark out, the interior ambient lighting pops on outlining the entire silhouette of the interior in a soft purple light that makes you feel like you are inside a fancy casino. Simply put, this SUV is not understated at all. If you aren’t into in-your-face opu-

lence then this isn’t the vehicle for you. So, how does this state-of-the-art machine with all its dripping rich-like toys ride? As expected, this car doesn’t just ride down the road it floats around on a pillowy airmatic suspension. This four wheel drive Maybach Mercedes is powered by a twin-turbo charged V-8 engine that puts out an impressive 558 horsepower that is also assisted by a 48 volt hybrid EQ booster that gives it a little extra boost when needed. This big, luxury SUV is capable of going from zero to 60 mph in an impressive 4.8 seconds. The EPA fuel consumption ratings for this Maybach are 15 miles per gallon in city driving and 19 mpg on the highway. It has not been crash test rated for safety yet. My overall driving impression of the Maybach Mercedes is generally good, with some reservations. While you can’t argue with its power and comfortableness, I thought this SUV is a tad sluggish in the handling department. This isn’t a vehicle you can just whip

around hair pin turns with, you have to more or less guide it smoothly around the tight turns. One other picky point is in order to fit in the wine chiller or champagne cooler in the rear seat, the refrigerated compartment of the cooler takes up a good chunk of the rear cargo area behind the second row, limited the usual cargo space one has in most SUVs. The editors at Car and Driver were equally impressed with this SUV’s opulence giving it high marks for having an “extremely luxurious” cabin, “silky smooth” ride and “flashy” exterior styling. Car and Driver gave the Maybach low marks for having a “princely” price tag, limited cargo space and for its “flashy” exterior styling. Of course, if you have the money to be able to afford an SUV of this ilk then I would certainly say that it should be near the top of your list for consideration.

What You See Is Not Always What You Get By Paul Hall

J

ust look. What you see can vary wildly from person to person. Introduce other factors including drugs, alcohol and a variety of stresses, and those perceptions can get even muddier. Such is the case in the new film The Woman in the Window. Anna Fox (Amy Adams) is living a life of solitude in New York. Past events have taken their toll on the former child psychologist and now she spends her days alone with minimal human interaction. As Anna peers out her window, she connects with the neighbors in her own way. She knows all about the prayer group across the way and has talked to the real estate agent about the new family who has moved in across from her. She knows how much they paid and will undoubtedly soon know everything she can. After meeting

Ethan Russell (Fred Hechinger) the son and Jane Russell (Julianne Moore) the wife, she has a picture of Alistair Russell (Gary Oldman) the father and the family who is across the street. That picture has crystalized and is not a flattering impression for Alistair. While doing her nightly snooping, she witnesses Jane being abused and ultimately tragically attacked. What did she see in her new neighbors’ dwelling? Was what she thought she saw actually what occurred, or did her variety of medications and alcohol consumption cloud her vision? It is a film by director Joe Wright (Darkest Hour, Atonement) that feels very Rear Window, Alfred Hitchcock’s classic film starring the incomparable James Stewart, and that is very intentional. The slow burn of Wright’s effort takes a deliberate approach to unveiling pieces of information that fit together like a large jigsaw puzzle for us to assemble. The quiet moments are interrupted with the perception of a woman who struggles with perception. A cast limited to really about 10 credited onscreen roles makes this a vehicle for Adams. She is called on to carry the entire film and she delivers. Spinning through a number of emotions and moments, Adams makes you believe in Anna in good times and bad, bringing to life the agoraphobic character riddled with fear. Even though the film relies heavily on Adams, she is surrounded by smaller yet memorable turns from Oldman, Moore, Hechinger and Jennifer Jason Leigh. Together they create the principals in this

modern thriller that feels transported from the 1950s and refreshed for our pleasure. So many of us look at films through different eyes and so many will look at The Woman in the Window differently. I liked its style and the beauty of the setting and appreciated Adams for everything she brought to the table. What you see may not always be what you get, but with Adams you are bound to get excellence.

a saxophonist and their daughter Amber is a singer, the Morgans said they decided to organize a benefit concert and subsequently ran a second due to the success of the first. Following Squillace’s death in 2018, the event continues to be run in her name. This is the second concert to be streamed through Facebook Live due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. “[Being remote] means we won’t be able to have our usual buffet line of donated food from our incredible eatery sponsors,” Michael Squillace said. “Although we are upset about this, we look forward to trying something different, just like last year when we had to switch from an in-person event to virtual without much notice. We were incredibly successful, raising our second highest amount with $35,260 going to two local families. Now we have had a year to tweak it and we can promise an even more amazing virtual event on June 12. “We would like to thank all of our sponsors, supporters, and anyone who has helped us keep our Jaclyn’s legacy alive by helping others fighting similar battles,” he continued. “We hope to see you join us virtually in support of Brian Da Silva.”

The YMCA of Greater Monmouth County, the Ocean County YMCA and Senior Citizens Activities Network (SCAN) have joined forces to bring the region’s senior citizens together in person and virtually on May 26 for a special, free event dedicated to physical and mental health, injury prevention and camaraderie. The trio is partnering with two major hospital groups and other organizations to welcome SCAN and YMCA members and the public to the Old Bridge, Freehold, Red Bank and Toms River facilities for the special National Senior Health & Fitness Day event featuring a host of activities, classes, fitness workshops, and a healthy meal. The event coincides with Older Americans Month. The National Senior Health & Fitness Day celebration will take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. A variety of classes will be offered at all four YMCA locations from deep water aerobics to Zumba and Yoga, and a seminar on injury prevention, plus “Walk, Talk and Stroll,” where everyone can have a fun and interactive walk together. A grab-and-go lunch will be provided by Fulfill on a first-come, first-served basis. Virtual programs will include a stress

management workshop, brain games, meditation, fitness and more. Partnering organizations include RWJ Barnabas, CentraState Healthcare System, the VNA of Central New Jersey Community Health Center, Atlantic Physical Therapy, T-Mobile and Fulfill, which are providing additional support and information during the one-day event. Advance registration is required for all participants. To sign up and view the entire schedule, visit www.eventbrite.com/e/ scan-ymca-national-senior-health-fitnessday-tickets-152021754159 All participants will receive a 7-day pass to SCAN and the YMCA of their choice. For more information, email info@ ymcanj.org. The School of the Arts on the East Brunswick campus of the Middlesex County Vocational and Technical Schools will present an outdoor production of Shakespeare’s comedy “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” May 26-30. Theater, music, dance, and arts technology students are collaborating on the performance, which will be presented before a limited audience in the outdoor “Hobbit” courtyard on the East Brunswick campus,

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.
