2. Rebuttable presumption a road sign is properly posted State v Smith 408 NJ Super. 484 (App. Div. 2009)

Defendant's conviction on trial de novo for violating N.J.S.A. 39:4­125 is affirmed because he turned his vehicle "around so as to proceed in the opposite direction on a highway" on which a "no U turn" sign was conspicuously posted.

Defendant does not have to perform a "u turn." The West Annotated version of the statute contains an error. The "no U turn" sign need not be on a "state" highway, and therefore whether or not the road was a "state" highway was irrelevant, as there is a rebuttable presumption the statute was properly posted.

As defendant was not entitled to assigned counsel, the fact he was improperly assigned counsel in the Law Division does not require vacation of the municipal conviction because he was not assigned counsel there.

Holly Jolly Christmas lyrics Have a holly, jolly Christmas, It's the best time of the year I don't know if there'll be snow, But have a cup of cheer.

Have a holly, jolly Christmas, And when you walk down the street, Say "Hello" to friends you know And everyone you meet.

Oh, Ho, the mistletoe, Hung where you can see, Somebody waits for you, Kiss her once for me.

Have a holly, jolly Christmas, And in case you didn't hear, Oh by golly, have a holly,

Jolly Christmas this year.

Needed: Outdoor Nativity Scene for Woodbridge Ave. A nativity scene, also called a crib or crèche (meaning "crib" or "manger" in French) generally refers to any depiction of the birth or birthplace of Jesus. The local Knight of Columbus members are looking for used outdoor nativity scenes no longer being used or displayed, to give them a new home.

Christian Nativity scenes three (sculpture or other three­dimensional crafts), usually show Jesus in a manger, Joseph and Mary in a barn (or cave) intended to accommodate farm animals. A donkey and an ox accompany them; besides the necessity of animals for a manager, this is an allusion to Isaiah: "the ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's crib; but Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider" (Is. 1:3). The scene sometimes includes the Magi or Three Wise Men, shepherds, angels and the Star of Bethlehem. The traditional scenes that show the shepherds and Magi together are of course not true to the Bible story, since the Magi arrived much later (Luke 2:7­16). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nativity_scene

If you have an unused Nativity scene and want to donate it to help decorate Woodbridge Avenue Edison, call Ken Vercammen at 732­572­0500
