Hudson County Community College Foundation Prepares for Eighth Annual Golf Outing Proceeds from July 11 Event will be Dedicated to Scholarships and the College’s Growth

June 28, 2011, Jersey City, NJ – The Hudson County Community College Foundation will hold its Eighth Annual Golf Outing on Monday, July 11, 2011. HCCC Vice President for Development Joseph Sansone said the fundraising event will again take place at Forest Hill Field Club in Bloomfield, with a shotgun start at 9:00 a.m. “As a result of the economic changes in our country and our area, we have seen record increases in enrollment these past few years. We have also seen a greater increase in the number of students who are applying for — and who really need — financial assistance,” Mr. Sansone said. The Golf Outing is one of four major fundraising efforts sponsored by the College’s Foundation each year. A continental breakfast precedes the outing’s shotgun start. There are refreshments on the course, followed by cocktails, a luncheon and awards. “Our Board of Directors have planned activities so both golfers and non-golfers will have a very enjoyable time,” Mr. Sansone stated. This year’s event is being chaired by Richard Mackiewicz, Jr., and co-chaired by Michael Raimonde, Ron Schwarz and Philip Johnston. Sponsorship opportunities include “Hole” and “Cigar” sponsors to “Award” and “Tournament” sponsors with foursomes. Individuals may also attend as a Golfer, Lunch/Pool Guest and Lunch Guest. Hudson County Community College Foundation is a nonprofit 501 (c) 3 corporation giving tax-exempt status to contributors. The Foundation generates financial support to benefit deserving HCCC students by providing them with scholarships. Additionally, the Foundation provides seed money for the College’s physical expansion and for new programs and faculty development. Since it was established in 1997, the Hudson County Community College Foundation has provided scholarships to more than 1,000 students. Information on these and other programs, and information on registering for and/or contributing to the 2011 Golf outing may be obtained by phoning the College’s Development Office at (201) 360-4006, or by emailing jsansone@

Mototochanic If you’re like me you’re always on the lookout for a good motorcycle hangout. New to the local scene (established in April of this year) Motochanic in West New York, NJ, appears to be on the road to becoming

in West New York,NJ

a frequent weekend destination. Why? If a GP race is being televised you can watch it there with other enthusiasts on their big screen TV, that’s why! And because I sense that Motochanic stocks

something that can be lacking in some Hudson Valley

shops — passion. The owners have only been riding motorcycles for two years (two years!) yet felt compelled to open their own style of motorcycle establishment. Talk about diving off the deep end. Here you can find high-end gear from Dainese, AGV and other usual suspects. (Rizoma grips — got it!). Though small they seem eager to take suggestions on what to hang on their racks and lay on their shelves. A web site is under construction but you can find them on Facebook. The neighborhood is clean and pretty with a variety of restaurants if you have to eat everyday. And though nothing is certain except death and taxes you can at least stick it to the big man since Motochanic will pick up your 7%. You’re on your own dealing with the grim reaper.

Fashionista Water Vitaminwater Flavors inspire Unique Fashions at Runway Competition in Hoboken By Sally Deering Glaceau’s “vitaminwater zero” is a naturally sweetened bottled-water drink put out by Coca-Cola that’s nutrient enhanced, flavored with a mix of familiar and exotic fruits and branded with names like “Glow,” “Squeezed,” “Drive” and “XXX.” On a recent Wednesday evening, the National vitaminwater Color Collection Competition was held at the

W hotel in Hoboken where vitaminwater made a huge splash as the inspiration for five up-and-coming fashion designers who created couture dresses that exemplified their take on the flavors, tastes and vibrant colors of the vitaminwater line The New Jersey-based designers – Thomas Layone, Liz Fields, Devon Thomas, Ralph Thurin, and Elena Vasilevsky -- put on a beautiful show of dazzling, edgy, and elegant dresses, pantsuits and evening gowns – as they competed for a $1,000 prize and the chance to have their designs strut the runway at October’s New Jersey Fashion Week. Set in the sleek, leather and chrome outer-reception area off the main lobby of the W hotel, the vitaminwater competition attracted a huge crowd of friends,

family and fans of the designers. Hosted by New Jersey Fashion Week founder Donnella Tilery of DC Showroom in Raritan, the show featured each designer who explained how a vitamanwater flavor inspired their designs and then a

parade of models hit the runway wearing a stunning display of eye-popping fashions. Designer Liz Fields parlayed the colors of vitaminwater’s “Drive,” a blood-orange and mixed-berry drink into fiery orange cocktail

dress, orange satin evening gown, a frilly teal gown and a blue satin gown with shiny blue bangles. Thonas Lavone told the audience “XXX” made with Acai berry, blueberry and pomegranate “rejuvenates and redefines the body and mind” and followed that with models dressed in a cranberry strapless flowery gown; a long black skirt with black and white, ruffled, off-the shoulder top; a floor-length pink slip dress with a black lace overlay; a blood orange dress with offthe-shoulder ruffles and a cranberry floor-length gown with a cascade of cranberrycolored feathers down the front. Elena Vasilevsky, who chose vitaminwater’s “Energy,” a tropical citrus drink, told the crowd that the flavors reminded her of Cont’d on page 12

Vitaminwater Fashion Show Cont’d from page 11 golden sunshine.” Vasilevsky’s models strutted down the runway in bright gold dresses that included a sassy ¾ dress layered in fringe that swayed with every step and a gold corseted- number with satin panels and spaghetti straps. Vasilevsky adorned many of her dresses with ropes of turquoise beads and feathers. Vitaminwater’s “Glow” a mix of strawberry and guanabana fruits inspired designer Devon Thomas to create a line of originals in bright pinks and blues including a hot pink pant suit and floor length gown. Designer Ralph Thurin completed the runway show with his line of dresses inspired by vitaminwater’s lemonade flavored, “Squeezed” featuring a gown with pale yellow fabric petals cascading down the back and a dress with silver sequins and pale yellow removable skirt. When the runway show ended, judges Toni-Ann Cerbo of the Jersey Journal, Carly Wikelius with WINK NYC Inc. and Laura P. Martin of NJ Press Media named Elena Vasilevsky and her “Energy” inspired sunburst designs the winner. Along with the $1,000 prize, Vasilevsky will be a featured designer at New Jersey Fashion Week in October. Diamond Melendez of Solace Day Spa & Salon in Old Bridge agreed with the judges: “Elena had the most artistic line. It was more intricate with the beadwork.” Joey Alvarez, also of Old Bridge, said “I thought her line was amazing, different and very edgy.” Tiffany Slavin of Upper Saddle River thought the judges had to make a difficult decision. “Overall I think every designer had something different to offer,” Slavin said, “but I was blown away by Liz Fields’ designs. They were different and cutting edge. The detailing was amazing.” But the best judges, were Vasilevsky’s models. Cathy Walker of Paterson said she enjoyed wearing Vasilevsky’s gold fringed dress because: “It makes you feel lovely. Elena loves the body.” The vitaminwater fashion competition offered a refreshing taste of what’s to come when New Jersey Fashion Week comes to the W hotel in Hoboken, Oct 9-13.

Designer tricks for the do-it-yourselfer (ARA) Ever watch those TV design shows and wonder how to replicate the look in your own home? It’s easy to incorporate designer tricks into your space, no matter the style or existing decor. Focus on adding layers of color and texture, and notice how hues flow from room to room to create a cohesive design. Choosing coordinating colors is easy when you have the right guide. For example, the new HGTV (R) HOME by Sherwin-Williams line of interior paints and supplies features eight designer-inspired color collections - each with 20 colors that work well together, no matter how many or how few are selected - along with expert design tips to help do-ityourselfers create harmonious room-to-room color transitions. Pull together a well-designed

home by taking cues from the overall color palette to add decorative accessories. For example, a spicy orange vase on the dining room table can play off a bold accent wall in the kitchen. Another popular designer technique is to turn flooring into a flexible decorating element. Try layering a vibrant area rug from the HGTV HOME Flooring by Shaw collection over a hard-surface floor or a neutral carpet - it’s easy to change as design preferences evolve. Designers aren’t afraid to make a statement with a signature space. Why not play on the high-impact contrast of black and white in a foyer or infuse an electric jolt of pink in a master bath? There are no wrong choices, because color is personal - and doesn’t have to be permanent.

STARGAZINE

ARIES (March 21 - April 19) Uranus, the planet of change,transiting the 7th house may attract a whirlwind within the partnerships of the Ram. The luck factor, however, is alive and well as unusual opportunities land at your feet. A small word of astral advice, please, be ready to move quickly as this energy fluctuates and must be harnessed.

TAURUS (April 20 - May 20) Jupiter has entered your sign and it feels as if a weight has been lifted from the Bull’s strong back. Just recently it was necessary to control your passions and work tirelessly to get out from under a powerful currant of negativity. Now the future is clear and optimism has returned. Thank the positive energy of Jupiter and your tenacious character for allowing you to hold on, with faith. GEMINI (May 21 - June 20) Activity to the 10th house of status, career, and honor may find you receiving some sort of positive recognion on the work front. Venus gives you a pleasant situation and Mars allows you the energy to capitalize on all opportunities that head in your direction. This is a perfect time to excel and be noticed for your accomplishments. Finally happiness and success are yours! CANCER (June 21 - July 22) Happy Solar return and Happy Birthday. All good Cancer natives possess a love of family and home. This is the source of your happiness. Now is time to reestablish your goals and prioritize. Deal with any problems that are upsetting your sense of security. As always, the solar return indicates the beginning of your personal new year so focus on your goals.

Page 16

River View Observer

LEO (July 23 - Aug. 22) What use is it to rehash mistakes of the past and allow guilt to linger in the present? Leo on the 12th house of the subconscious finds you crying about yesterday. It is far better to accept our shortcomings and work each day to improve. Remember that you become what you think. So chose to think that you are a wonderful child of the Universe because you are. VIRGO (Aug. 23 - Sept.22) Is there one bad habit that you would like to eliminate? Now is the time to begin, the astral energy suggests. Activity to the 1st house governing your personal character and your physical being indicate tremendous changes are possible. In a short time your friends may not even recognize the new you. So prepare your goals as they are achievable now more than ever. LIBRA (Sept. 22 - Oct. 22) Success is yours!! You have surmounted obstacles and worked faithfully toward goals and now will reap rewards. This is payday and the good times have returned. The Wheel of Fortune has spun back and the astral energy is good. Never forget the lessons of the last year and you will continue on the road to success. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21) We all are influenced by astrological factors. This July has five weekends and two new moons. One falls on the first and the other on the 30thof the month. The energy of these new moons is perfect for renewing your spiritual self. Reboot your life and eliminate bad feelings. Dare to be the person you truly are.

Month of July 2011 by J. Banta Lewis

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21) Be careful what you say as your words will be misinterpreted and spun around like a ball of yarn in an old model washing machine. You are usually out spoken but at this time silence is golden and anything you say can and will be held against you in the court of public opinion.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19) Pluto transiting the 4th house of your solar chart indicates that the heart of the matter will be revealed. Something has been picking away at your sense of stability and you are ready to confront your demons. It could be a simple annoying characteristic you have developed that is no longer desirable. Viewing the problem and accepting shines the light of change. Negative issues may simply fade away. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 - Feb 18) You are determined to change your life and the stars will help you in this metamorphous. You will enlist the help of an old friend to aid you on this journey. In a few months you will have accomplished your goal. These astral aspects could put you on the road to fame and fortune. PISCES (Feb. 19 - March 20) Children and/ romantic relationships are significant as a retrograde Neptune transits the 5th house. Neptune had contributed to denial of a certain aspect of your life. Now it has returned and it’s obvious you can no longer run away from the truth. The truth will set you free and you will be all the wiser. Do the work!! © STARGAZINE 2011 All rights reserved.

“SpecktruM’s” World Premiere Performance at Maxwell’s in Hoboken By Evelyn Bonilla On, Wednesday, July 6, 2011 at 8:00 pm the rock band “SpecktruM” will perform live at Maxwell’s in Hoboken. This event is unique, in that it will feature a “World Premiere” performance by the band. It seems that in the world of music; there are many bands that come and go, but SpecktruM’s is distinctive in that the group is dedicated to their music and to promoting “positive rock music.” Rocking out in “SpecktruM” are three multi-talented Stevens Institute of Technology students which consists of Ben Clifford-Guitar (a recent graduate of Stevens), Nick Catania-Keyboard and Sax and Cliff Hults-Bass. Also in the band is the very talented Brady Cudmore known for his performances all over the country and Canada. Together the group of four formed a dynamic rock band with a strong bond of “friendship and love of music”. The compilation of the four band members makes for a jam session like no other! Leaving no stone unturned; the band is dedicated to revealing “different rock genres” that speak of guitars, drums, bass and sax. Coupled with amazing vocals this is sure to be a stellar performance! Most recently “SpecktruM” has gathered the attention of various music producers and the national organization of “Hopeline (HopeLine.com)”. Founded by Reese Butler, “Hopeline” has helped hundreds of individuals who are depressed or suicidal. Butler’s inspiration and encouragement along with the executive guidance of David Musial an award winning, entrepreneurial multimedia producer and educator, lead to the formulation of the group “SpecktruM.” Asked how the group received its name Nick Catania, of SpecktruM explained, “We were looking for a name that would represent our music and I mentioned SpecktruM, because it covers the full spectrum of music.” “We all agreed that this is the name that would represent us.” Cont’d on page 21

restaurant VIEWS Komegashi Too, Just as Fine as the Original Komegashi Spinoff brings Restaurateur’s Passion for Fine Japanese Cuisine to the Jersey City Waterfront

By Sally Deering Restaurateur Johnny Leung is a self-proclaimed “Foodie” who opened Komegashi on Montgomery Street near Exchange Place in Jersey City in 1990. He made a successful splash as the only fine-dining Japanese restaurant in town and in 2000, Leung opened Komegashi Too on the Jersey City Waterfront at a time when the waterfront had little to offer as a dining destination and there were few hi-rises beyond the restaurant’s floor-to-ceiling windows. As the waterfront developed, so did the restaurant’s cadre of devoted patrons, some who have eaten at Komegashi Too practically every day since it opened. On a recent Tuesday afternoon, Komegashi Too was packed, as usual, with patrons dining on exquisite Japanese dishes beautifully plated and popping with fantastic flavors. “Here at Komegashi Too, the style is a little different from Komegashi on Montgomery Street,” Leung says, taking a break during the busy lunch service. “We don’t want it to be the same. Here we have a bigger variety of choices, foods you don’t normally see on a Japanese menu, like Sea Bass from the Mediterranean.” Leung ‘s passion for fine Japanese cuisine is evident in every dish served at Komegashi Too, cozy 120-seat restaurant on Town Plaza, just steps from the NJ Transit’s Newport stop on the

Komegashi Too serves fine Japanese cuisine on the Jersey City Waterfront

the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail. This Komegashi spinoff of the original offers cuisine that’s not as traditional as its predecessor, Leung says, and although the menu’s star is the Sushi, Leung’s chef is a masterful creator of dishes that look like plated works of art. There are so many Sushi choices offered at Komegashi Too, and some of the highlights are the Godzilla Roll, yellowtail and salmon; Creamy Nirvana Roll, shrimp tempura, eel, avocado, cream cheese; Spider Roll, fried soft shell crab and avocado; Funky Monkey Roll, spicy tuna, shrimp, crabstick; Alaska Roll, salmon, avocado, cucumber, scallions and mayo; and Banana Mama Roll, a delicious blend of eel, avocado and fresh banana ($8.50-$13.50; the Spider Roll is market price of the day.) Featured items are the Hiyashi Nasu with Uni , broiled Japanese eggplant with California sea urchin;

“SpecktruM’s” World Premiere Cont’d from page 17

The full spectrum of music and individuality is what this band brings to the forefront. Earlier this year, SpecktruM was petitioned to create a song for the “Festival for Humanity.” The Festival for Humanity was created to celebrate “art and music.” The song was composed and

recorded by SpecktruM. It was produced by Musial and co-producer by Rob Harari. The song is entitled “Humanity” and is featured on the bands website at specktrumband.com. All members of the band began as solo artists and each have impressive musical backgrounds. They are all vocalists and musicians and their multi-faceted backgrounds bring depth and intensity to their music. SpecktruM has already begun composing and recording music for their new CD which is due out at the end of this year. There are many events in the works for SpecktruM and by the looks of things their world premiere performance at the historic Maxwell’s is sure to make music history!

New York, NY – June 28, 2011 – SILVERMAN today unveiled a new model apartment at Hamilton Square specially designed by local high-end home furnishing boutique Smith & Chang. Hamilton Square (www.livingonthepark.com) is an adaptive reuse condominium development offering unrivalled loft living in the historic heart of Jersey City. Smith & Chang (www.smithchang.com), a general store with an eco twist and vintage vibe, is located in one of the retail spaces on site at Hamilton Square at 230 Pavonia Avenue. Listed at $549,000, the newly modeled unit is a 1,072 square-foot one-bedroom apartment with one and one half bathrooms, a home office and views of the Empire State Building. According to designer Alex Chang, co-owner of Smith & Chang, the modeled unit was created in the company’s signature style, featuring a mix of products reflecting the old and the new. The unit’s kitchen, for example, features shelves built with wrought iron and reclaimed wood planks that act as a kitchen island, while in the home office, an antique door is reinvented as a tabletop that sits on a pair of trestles. Smith & Chang and the store’s owners are available for design and décor assistance and have already worked with several of the Hamilton Square residents. “Smith & Chang did an excellent job modeling this unit and our buyers will love the contemporary style studded with antique and one-of-a-kind touches,” said Paul Silverman, principal and co-founder of SILVERMAN. “This new model will give buyers a chance to truly grasp the versatility of the layouts available at Hamilton Square and give them ideas on unique décor options as well.” The new model unit showcases what makes each unit at Hamilton Square unique, including architecturally designed bathrooms with radiant heated floors, over-sized apartment entry doors with heavy-duty lever handles, advanced soundproofing, high ceilings, in-home Bosch stacked washer dryer and large operable windows with stone sills. The dark wood rift oak kitchens at Hamilton Square were purpose-built for everything from daily meals to entertaining with style. The chef-inspired space features: GE Profile and Fisher-Paykell Stainless Steel Appliances; gas stoves and cook tops; recycled white glass counters with a natural limestone kitchen backsplash; imported ceramic kitchen floor tile; and a refrigerator with a water dispenser and ice maker. Hamilton Square features a total of 124 residences in a mix of studio lofts, one-, two- and three-bedroom homes. Located at 232 Pavonia Avenue in Jersey City, occupancy at Hamilton Square is immediate with no board approval required. The remaining units currently on the market range from approximately 649 to 2,100 square feet in size to $335,000 to $1.3 million in price. Residences feature custom kitchens and spa-like bathrooms, advanced soundproof construction and high ceilings of up to 14 feet. For more information, please visit: www.livingonthepark.com/.
