One of my perennial complaints against the school board is that the board has never established educational standards for the students, instead relinquishing that role to the state and the school administration. The result has been a predictable diminished level of expectations and a graduating class largely unprepared to pursue higher education or the most promising labor fields.
I have long argued the board must set its own standards and hold the administration accountable for meeting those standards. Furthermore, everyone, from the teachers, to the parents, to the students, should know exactly what those standards are. That means providing exhaustive study guides from which all exam questions are drawn so that there's no doubt of nor divergence from those standards.
Below is a list of sample questions that I would expect every student to know prior to graduation and, contrary to the state's standards, anything below 70% is a failing grade.
I doubt a majority of our high school seniors could properly answer most of the below questions but the question for the community is this - After spending 13 years and $200,000 per child, which of the below questions is outside what we should expect a graduating senior to know?
English
- Romeo and Juliet, Catcher in the Rye, and Huckleberry Finn are among the most revered and reviled works of literature in our nation's public schools. Choose one of the above works and write a 400-500 word persuasive essay arguing why it should be included in the school curriculum. Be sure to include quotations from the story and discuss the plot and central characters.
Math
- Prove 4X^2 - 16XY + 16Y^2 + 2 is always greater than zero
- Provide the mathematical equation for a circle whose center is (5,5) and radius is 5.
- A mutual fund advertises “An average 8% annual return over the past five years”. If the fund returned 8% each year, how much would $10,000 have earned over the five years?
- The actual track record of the fund for each of the five years was 15%, 25%, 10%, -40%, and 30%. Plus the fund has an annual 2% management fee. How much would a $10,000 investment have returned over the past five years?
- 5 years ago, a bank offered a 5-year CD with a 2.2% annual interest rate. Which would have been the better investment?
Science
- What is the chemical equation for photosynthesis?
- A police car's siren operates at 300hz. The patrol car is traveling at 95 mph to catch a car traveling 80 mph. What is the siren frequency the pursued driver would actually hear?
- What is positive feedback? Where is it found in nature? Why is it rare? Why is it central to man-made global warming theory?
American History
- Why was George Washington unanimously elected to be the nation's first president? Discuss his personal qualifications, the political considerations, and both the needs and fears of a strong presidency.
- Per capita, the Civil War was our nation's bloodiest. Why was it so important to Abraham Lincoln to preserve the union?
- Of America's 44 presidents, a few are noted as having significantly transformed the role of the presidency. Pick a president who significantly transformed the presidency and discuss how he changed the office.
Government
- What is a government of enumerated powers? Name three things, excluding civil violations, that the federal government cannot do.
- What is the constitutional question regarding the individual mandate in the recent healthcare reform legislation?
- The 14th amendment states, “No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States”. When adopted, did the 14th Amendment protect against sex discrimination? Does it now? Discuss.
Economics
- What is the Laffer Curve? Why is it a source of disagreement in Congressional Budget Office projections?
- The Federal Reserve is trying to stimulate the economy and prevent deflation by lowering interest rates and increasing the money supply. How would that stimulate the economy? What is the fear of deflation?
- Critics have complained the Federal Reserve's actions will lead to inflation. How might that happen and why is it a concern?
World History
- How is Western Civilization different from other civilizations? Compare and contrast to at least one other civilization.
- Discuss the differences between the American Revolution and the French Revolution, including what sparked the revolutions, what were the underlying philosophies, and how they were effectuated.
- On December 7th, 1941, a “Day of Infamy”, Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. Roosevelt responded by sending most of the armed forces to fight Germany. Why?
Foreign Language
- Translate Goldilocks and the Three Bears into a foreign language.
Ethics
- Most of the families in a small town earn their livelihoods at a local profitable factory. One day, the owner, a local businessman, decides to close the factory and move operations oversees where labor is cheaper. Would it be ethical for the townspeople to levy a “millionaire's tax”, which would only impact the businessman, to support the newly unemployed? Discuss.
- A hospital's nurses feel they are not being fairly compensated and that management is not negotiating with them in good faith. Would it be ethical for them to strike? Discuss.

Sounds Great. Why don't you bring these ideas to the Edison School District?
Joey, that's a wonderful plan! You should call the schools chancellor, and have it implemented. They will probably only try it in one of the Boroughs at first. Then, once it's proven succesful, they will surely implement it citywide.
Why didn't you bring this forward when you were on the Aberdeen School Board?
Also, are you unemployed? When do you have time to research all of this for a town in a state you don't even live in anymore? I hope you are not leaving your children unattended?
Joey,
I agree that this board, or any other for that matter, has ever established educational standards for the students. You say you argued for these standards, but did not have any success. Who was standing in your way? Was it other board memebers? Was it administration? Why didn't it happen? Please be specific.
He can't be specific, because it never happened. He also can't be truthful, because that would shatter the myth of the great and wise Joey for his handful of followers.
Dear Mr. Warren,
I have read your proposal for our schools, and I agree totally with your approach. It is with the help of residents like you that we can give our students a quality education.
Sincerely,
Cathie Black
Schools Chancellor

IGNORANCE RULES THE FIRST SIX POSTINGS. WE CAN BET FAILING OUR STUDENTS TENURED TEACHERS WERE MOST OF THE FIRST SIX POSTERS. MAYBE RUPRECHT AND DEMAREST HAD TIME TO POST ONE OF THE SIX ABOVE THIS POST SINCE THEY FAILED IN THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES TO VOTE ON THE APPROVAL OR NON APPROVAL OF OUR NEW SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENT THIS PAST MONDAY AT THE SCHOOL BOARD MEETING. WERE THEY TOLD TO STAY HOME BY THE GRAND DRAGONS OF THE BARZA GANG? WAS IT BOWLING NIGHT OR CHASE A GREASED PIG NIGHT AT THE BARZA CLUB? BY THE WAY THAT REMINDS ME HOW IS JAN RUBINO DOING?
I first raised the issue in 2009.
I first raised the issue on the school board in May, 2010.
"Mr. Warren would like to have another brainstorming session for developing. District goals. One of those goals should be that students have the skills, knowledge and experience to be successful when they leave the District."
As for why it never happened, without revisiting that time period, suffice to say I didn't have the opportunity to force it through.
IT MUST BE THE TEACHERS UNION WHO DECIDED IT WAS A BAD IDEA. IT MUST HAVE BEEN THOSE TEACHERS WHO DO NOT WANT TO DO ANYTHING ALL DAY. ISNT IT THE TEACHERS AND THE UNION WHO DECIDE WHAT CURRICULUM IS TAUGHT? tHOSE DAMN UNIONS DECIUDING WHAT SHOULD AND SHOULDNT BE TAUGHT!
I bet the board of special ed. would easily agree to that test. Their kids would pass would flying colors...lol.
Bowling night or chasing pigs was very amusing.
Hard to worry about testing in a school where the criminals are running the place, where kids have no respect and administration has no control over the student body. Where kids who hit teachers and push principals are allowed back to school.
Walk through the halls during the day, it's starting to look like Compton. Why don't we worry about the huge decline in behavior and behavioral standards first?
One little word is missing from our educational system in regards to parents, students, staff and administrators. The word is accountability. Accountability with all involved in the educational processes is missing and is the main problem. The reasons accountability is missing from our society is the root cause of most problems in education and society on the whole.
Joey,
This raises the bigger question of, is this district failing our students. The sad part is a very large percentage of our high school students would not pass this test, yet it seems reasonable that they should. You were on the board of ed and could not even get a discusson going on making changes. The average parent wouldn't even know how to start making drastic changes to a system that thinks its doing a great job. Its hard to understand the reason for this post, it only points out how the system is failing us and no solution is in sight.
Oh, honey he just wants you to tell him that if he stayed in Aberdeen he would be the savior or our school system.
Even living in NYC, I think I can force the issue. I only need one board member to push for it.
Speaking of pushing an agenda the silence of Ruprecht and Demarest on the new school super is loud and clear.Where were they? Too busy to atend? No bar-za candidates get even one vote next election. I think four seats are up for election next time around.
You couldn't even get a discussion going when you where on the board, now you are going to do it from NYC. Don't anyone hold your breath. If one board member agreed with you, they would already be pushing for it. Forget it. Unless it is special ed related it is not going anywhere.
Yeah, like we have choices to vote for. Our towns have turned into unopposed elections, so no choice.
All you anonymous spineless assholes hide behind your anonymity making you so brave. You're spineless and gutless. Stand behind what you say by identifying or just shut up.
How's this John? Now I can be just as spineless as you, because we all know your name is real.
I see on ce again Joey chooses to ignore the issue that keeps popping up....the HS is becoming a hang out for punks and the administration is watching.
O'Malley was here about a month short of three years. He was the educational leader. He was legally the only person who could make recommendations to the board for them to vote on. He was hired to run the school district. Did you present your ideas to him?
Thank God I'm outta here. These people are stupid and they like it!!!
The name is real.
The problem in education is real.
And all you anonymous types want everyone else to fix your problems while you masturbate.
Blame yourselves for once in your pathetic lives.
1. You put forth this test? Who makes you the end all- be all of what our kids should know? This test is pure speculation and so are your SUPPOSED RESULTS that you think might happen. GIve me a break.
2. Shut up. You had your chance and don't make it like you have unfinished business because you moved. You should have stood your ground. And at least when you left you could have told all as to "what you were held back from doing"..... yeah right. YOu joined the good ol boys club when you WON UNOPPOSED. I would have had some respect for you if you did push your agenda and was stone walled BUT now you bring it up???
3. Does anyone else want to just PUKE when our board Prez talks - and how much he "appreciates" things and how he repeats himself over and over. Does he realize that this is NOT HIS DISTRICT... he works for it and tries to maintain it (and I do thank him and the others for their time as long as it isnt just for the betterment of THEIR kids) -
4. Watch the Podcast - whats with all the groaning and grunting in the back ground - I am SOOOOO sorry you have to vote and make motions up there - I cannot tell who it is...
5. When the former employee gets up and talks - someone says "oh jesus".... THANKS - REAL PROFESSIONAL.... take a listen- its on there- Kenney ALWAYS talks about 1st amendment - Who ever it was, practice what you preach.
6. I have had enough of that lady getting up and giving her take on the district. 1st amendment I support - but her gyst on things = I could care less. A few weeks ago she talks about parents and the strathmore bathroom problem and HAD NO BUSINESS doing so- pissing off parents who are going through this dilemma. NOW its nurses with soap dispensers. And it doesnt even make sense - 2 women talked about bathroom time taking away from instruction and the opinion lady talks about soap dispensers-
you cant pee in a soap dispenser.
But our BOE prez likes her becuase she frequently tells him how great he is. Then talks about an unprofessional teacher - you know whats unprofessional ? using real names as she has done in the past or making accusations against people who cannot defend themselves in a public forum (and you wonder why those teachers need tenure when it comes to politics like this)- so much that she is lucky she wasnt sued for slander.
Those are the real problems.... Good luck Mr. Healy. I am glad I moved out of here years ago after living here for 30 years. I still care for this district for genuine reasons. I just look from afar not write blogs about towns and schools for which I have no affiliation and after only being on the BOE for SELF PROMOTION...sorry Joey- I liked some of your work but to now play Monday morning quarterback is foolish
Monday morning quarterback do you go to school board meetings and tell the board what you think of the district and its leadership. Probably not I think. So shut up and stop boring us. And people say Njoe is long winded. At least he has valid points and identifies himself. Where is Aitken on all of this.
My name is real too.
Yes, the problem in education is real. Yes, people just want to keep pointing fingers and talking instead of taking responsibility for their childrens education.
Yes, this district is a total mess, and that mess started at the top and until that gets fixed nothing is going to change no matter how much finger pointing is done.
Wally? Come on, this can't really be Wally. For real? This is either an imposter, or there is another Wally in town, because that can't be the Wally we know.
I live in town. I am real. I do not have an opinion.
If you post anonymously you don't exist. Your words like your posts don't mean anything. All you anonymous jerkoffs doubt our names from your ghosting posts. Posts that NEVER ADD TO THE SUBJECT. Ignore any post that is from anonymous. Before I forget F NORMAN KAUFF AND HIS FORTY THIEVES.

WOOOOOOO!!! I'm a ghost.
I don't exist because some guy with a generic name says I don't
WOOOOOOOO!!!
F Joey Warren in his mouth!
NORM RULES!
I'm not even gone six months and already I'm being accused of not "standing my ground". Check the minutes, speak to any of the board leaders, this was a topic I brought up frequently but I ran out of time. It had to be done during the summer, I wasn't available, and it never happened. The prior summer was used for goal settings.
Right now, I'm doing what I can to push the issue forward. That's all I can do. And it's a lot more than most.
Hopefully, the board will consider this for the upcoming summer session.
I see the CAPS guy is on another delusional rant.
Joey have you not realized that the board thinks of you just like the rest of us? They are glad you are gone. The only reason you thought you were liked was that you were in the O'Malley I'll bend over for you club!
The board's glad that I'm gone or the Barza faction? You're either confused or delusional.
Nsectionjoe is right. I cannot believe i just said that.

The "board" never took you seriously and it is amazing that you think you mattered to them and their agenda. Remember, this is Chuckies district. You had three main objectives or goals that you only got lip service on. 1) New mission statement. Got one, but not yours. 2)Online degrees from certain schools (it is still going on). 3) Establish educational standards like described in your post (didn't happen when you were there and won't happen when you are gone). If you wanted to get something done, you should have taken up a special ed issue.
I could give you a list of changes I made but to work from yours -
1)Got a new mission statement which actually requires the students learn something
2)Online degrees are a contractual matter. Now, for the first time, they'll actually be discussed during negotiations. Secondly, teachers are now required to provide evidence they actually earned their online degrees.
3)You hear about the writing curricula? That was my push. We also now have an objective standards to measure advancement. I also helped block some "college accredited" classes that I believed were bogus.
Obviously, you've never worked in a group environment to believe you can simply dictate what everyone else does. Considering the time I had, I'm proud of what I achieved.
When Joey and his apostles entered the city of Barza, they were informed of a plot to have Joey captured and crucified, by the apostle Gerald, who had overheard the conversation at his used chariot dealership.
Gerald overheard Shaft, head of the Royal Barzanian Police, telling Louis, head of the Barza Fire Dept, that he was ordered by King Norman to bring Joey in, dead or alive.
Joey calmed his apostles by reading passages from the mission statement to them, and reminding them that, no matter what happens here on earth, better things are yet to come,as long as they follow the mission statement.
He also told them they will one day be rewarded for their loyalty, and sit beside him, in eternal bliss, in the kingdom of Brooklyn.
This is the word of the Warren
Thanks be to Joey
Joey,
I confess that I usually write nasty posts to you on here because I disagree with nearly all of your viewpoints. At this point, I'm sorry. I just feel bad for you.
You've spent the morning defending three minor reforms you enacted after you won an unopposed election for a small town school board in a place you moved away from. You used to infuriate me when you were on that board, but now I find this whole thing increasingly absurd and demoralizingly sad.
I'm not saying you shouldn't continue to run this blog. Clearly, you have readers, including me. But, please do find something to do with yourself before you slip further into delusional nostalgia. Take your kids to the park or something and post here during election time or only once in a while.
I used to hate you, and now you're making me feel guilty about that. You're truly addicted to the kick you get from this blog and stirring the pot. Find something to do with your kids man.
Or I still care about Aberdeen. Ever consider that?
Nope, never considered that, and don't believe it either, I'm going to say it's a combination of ego, and lack of friends.
Ouch.
Truth hurts sometimes
That's why people hate me.
People hate you because you're a douche!
Joey, People hate you because you hate you.
People hate Joey Wrren cause he tells the truth, makes people think and shines the light on the corrupt low life scum like Kauff and Company, Barza and those too scared to speak up. So all you anonymous assholes back into your caves of idiocy. I love how all the anonymous posters have all the answers but are afraid to identify themselves cause they know they are wrong. So leep blaming Joey, Aitken, Mcaleer, Wally, THE TRUTH (RIP) AND ALL THE OTHERS WHO HATE CORRUPTION, FRAUDULENT AND ILLEGAL SPENDING, UNETHICAL POLITICIANS AND ANONYMOUS IDIOTS WHO POINT FINGERS AT EVERYONE BUT THEMSELVES.
I KNOW YOU HATE THE CAPS SO HERE THEY ARE.
Are you saying that moron's real name was THE TRUTH? Ha! No wonder he was such an ass....And Art, people really do hate him because he's a douche. Contrary to what some of you may think, this blog doesn't serve any purpose other than to entertain those of us who laugh at you.
You know the anonymous include all of the following. Kauff, Tag, Vin, Bill S., Axlerod, Katz, BARZA and all those who profited from the so called leadership and democratic party $$$$. Right Norm.
You tell 'em Ralph!!
Wanna go get some pizzas?
Looks like Ralph has a new boyfriend. Right billy? So much man on man love in town lately. Nice that Coren will have some new playmates upon his release from prison. At least Norman and the others who stayed friendly won't be stuck entertaining Coren alone. Make sure Coren registers everywhere he goes Norm. Keep him on a very short leash Norm. I'm sure all of Norm's neighbors can't wait for the pedophile friend and confidant to return for friday night dinner and services?
Make sure Coren gets all of his shots too Norm.
I love the creativity in the posts. Ralph and the assorted Kauff faithful try really hard to embarrass those who shine the light on their corruption. But year after year, post after post they are out done. They fail to recognize or more likely are embarrassed that they are truly being outclassed, out mocked and outrightly out done by the posts like the one that mentions Kauff walking Coren on a short leash. It was short, sweet and biting.
That of course is much like the daily activities of our former town manager where his time is short until he gets released, sweet since Coren is probably acting like a sweet inmate to stay alive and biting which is what he must do to his pillow as he is abused by his jail friends.
Sorry I could not keep myself from joining in on the Kauff based abuse. I myself wonder how much more Kauff and his supporters can really stand. Everything they do gets out. Everything they fail to do gets out. The embarrassment of having to replace another manager speaks volumes as people say. They want us to believe the recently departed manager really was capable as yet they let him go. They let him go and that was all we needed to know despite the glowing tributes and thank you lies printed in the newspapers. If he was so good give him the money to stay. The town leadership have to blame themselves and the big mouths in their midst for allowing their inactions and miscues to become public.
My wife and I are only a year from retirement and we will flee Aberdeen and the obvious Norman Kauff control.
One final note to Mr. Warren. Take great pride in the fact that you are chastised and called out by the Kauff people and the educationally ignorant and preservative types. I and many others enjoy the back and forth at the expense of the morally corrupt who merely hate you because you publicize through this blog their professional, elected or managerial inadequacies.
We look forward to much more from you the next year. Thank you once again for keeping the selfish among us out for public exposure and opinion.
Bill and Joan W Section
I'm sure that most of the anonymous idiots are mad that they themselves could not answer most of the questions posed herein by Mr. Warren. Of course they know that themselves but the arrogance, ignorance and egos won't let them admit it. They could never admit it. Kauff and Bar-Za won't let them.
Very good point. The worst thing is that no one wants students to prosper. This is a educational system paid to exist in its present form. Barza is proof of that.
by my calendar it is nearly 4 years since larry O took over as pres of the boe and barza lost majority. what has the "standards" wing of the boe been doing for the past 4 years? its not barza holding kids back...its you!
REMBER ABERDEEN!!!!! MICHAEL ASH FOR DISTRICT 1 FIRE COMMISHNER FEBUARY 19 COME VOTE
TIME FOR MAJOR CHANGES IN THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. VOTE AND BE HEARD.
TIME FOR THE LOU MAFIA TO GO.
WHY DO I SAY MAFIA?
LOU AND HIS GANG KNOW THAT IS WHAT THEY ARE.
FACT!
RIGHT LOU.
TIME FOR ARROGANCE, COLLUSION AND MORE TO BE SHOWN THE DOOR. THEN A CERTIFIED CHECK OF ALL FIREHOUSE FINANCES FOR THE PAST TEN YEARS SHOULD BE UNDERTAKEN TO ASSURE ALL OUR TAX MONIES ARE ACCOUNTED FOR. THIS IS NEEDED FOR MANY REASONS TO INCLUDE THE NAME OF THE ACCOUNTANTS USED TO DO THE FIREHOUSE BOOKS.
THAT'S RIGHT BOYS AND GIRLS THE EXACT SAME ACCOUNTING FIRM THAT HAS DONE THE BOOKS FOR KAUFF'S TOWN HALL ALL OF THESE YEARS DO THE FINANCIAL BOOKS FOR LOU AND HIS COMMISSIONERS.
WAKE UP ABERDEEN YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO ALLOW THE KAUFF AND AURIEMMA CORRUPTION, ARROGANCE AND ABUSE OF HARD WORKING VOLUNTEERS TO CONTINUE TO WREAK HAVOC ON OUR COMMUNITY AND US VOLUNTEERS.
RIGHT NORM?
RIGHT LOU?
RIGHT ABERDEEN?
Illegal card games?
Selling developers approvals for fire trucks?
Assaulting fellow firefighters?
Commissioners ignoring their duties?
Just another day in Aberdeen #2.
Right Lou?
Right commissioners?
That city slicker's lucky I'm not 50 or 60 years younger, or I really would have put a hurting on him.
Back in my day, you respected your elders. That young punk wouldn't have tried that with me if we were in one of the speakeasies I hung around in during Prohibition.
Don't the commissioners have a sworn duty to have properly and openly investigated the claimed assault?
What did the commissioners do?
Have prior incidents, complaints and problems generated or surrounding Chief Auriemma ever been properly catalogued, investigated or been reported the commissioners on the supposed prior occasions?
What did the commissioners do?
The recently reported incidents at recent fire scenes that were reported and claimed that Chief Auriemma acted, directed or possibly endangered himself, fellow firefighters and perhaps private properties?
What did the commissioners do?
Is there an official report available to taxpayers on the official actions, findings or results?
Is there an official hearing of all of the above that the public or newspapers could attend?
Is this a closed society unto itself?
This is in fact a taxpayer funded building that for the most part operates with taxpayer dollars. I think we taxpayers deserve answers to the above inquiries to ensure that our firefighters are properly considered, instructed, safeguarded and most importantly when they do complain that they are not ignored by those officials, commissioners and others that are paid and sworn to act officially and in the best interest of the entire volunteer organization that we fund.
Will one commissioner reply to this inquiry. We are told the firehouse has offices, secretaries, computers and other technology and that the staff and Chief Auriemma it is said follow this blog site very closely. Soat the end I ask that just one named official, commissioner or volunteer properly respond to the above questions from this taxpayer.
Taxpayers, firefighters and more are owed an official explanation to the trouble in this firehouse and with its leadership.
Youse townies don't know nuthin!
We're taking control now. And, the first thing we're gonna do is change the name from that gay ass ATHC, to FDAT, Lloyd Rd Battalion.
Then we're gonna get rid of all those townies that are in charge and make our own Chiefs of various titles.
I agree with the Fire Department statement a couple of posts above. The fact tat the taxpayers fund that building is the number one reason that the entire situation is a major embarrassment to the community. I for one can only imagine what working as a volunteer in such a place would be like. The words effective and responsible leadership is certainly not a description of what is going on at the corner fire house. I find it very troubling as well as a classic good o'l boys situation that has apparently caused major rifts in an organization that is based on volunteers who if too often abused can walk away and that does not serve the community well. I have major problems with the presented facts that the commissioners may have failed these volunteers, the community and finally at a too often significant financial taxpayer expense. My wife and I will be voting any presently serving officers out of office since it is obvious that major failures have been allowed to disrupt this organization. I am very disappointed in this organization that we have thought of may not be what we thought all of these years. I will return their annual fund drive until this entire situation is fully disclosed and properly handled. To date I think this one man and his arrogance has improperly been allowed to destroy this organization. It is truly a shame.
Commissioners did NOTHING about Lou.
COMMISSIONERS are telling all their comrades at the Italian-American club pass the budget and of course to vote to keep the Lou allegiant to keep arrogance, abuse and inept leadership. God knows they need the money to cover the Chief Lou legal fees. Will they hide that in next years budget under a line item that reads *unnecessary legal fees to cover for the unethical fire house leadership?
The truth is a terrible thing.
Isn't that right Lou and the Lou Commissioners?
SUPER BOWL SUNDAY IN ABERDEEN
TWO TEAMS WILL MEET ON THE FIELD OF DISHOR

JIM LAURO AND VINNY VINCI BECAUSE THEY PLAY ON BOTH OF THESE CORRUPT TEAMS.
ANOTHER CORRUPT GAME IN ABERDEEN AND THE TAXPAYERS LOSE EITHER WAY.
Now that's funny.
No Norm that is not funny. It is unfortunately the truth.
Lets see what will happen on the next show of Auriemmas how to ruin a fire company. Will he put Jimmy the queef out to pasture or Vinney the theif. Dont miss the show premiering some time in march. This soap opera is the best in town. Wait until the season finally in november.
Thanks for the moderating temperatures. If we waited for the town employees to clear the rest of the snow we'd be snowed in till winter 2012
Typical whining comment. Complain about public employees and then bitch when your streets don't get plowed or the cops don't show up fast enough to get a bird out of your house. Some people just exist to complain. It must be a pitiful existence.
HEY MODERATING TEMPERATURES WHAT YOU JUST GET BACK FROM FLORIDA YOU WIMPERING JACKASS. IF YOU WERE AROUND THIS WINTER THEY DID A FINE JOB.SO KEEP BITCHING ABOUT THINGS.
THAT YOU DONT HAVE A CLUE ON. ITS PEOPLE LIKE YOU THAT OPEN THEIR MOUTHS AND THE BULLSHIT KEEPS FLOWING.YOUR THE TYPE OF ASSHOLE THAT WOULD SAY THE SCHOOLS NEED THE MONEY MORED THAN ANY OTHER PART OF THE TOWN. SO THANKS AGAIN FOR OPENING THE BALOON KNOT THAT YOU CALL A MOUTH
The only letter printed that thanked the snow plow guys and the emergency workers came from the one guy all these anonymous assholes hate on here. At least he thanked us when nobody else from the community cared to. None of the anonymous guys said thank yo. Thanks again Joe Mack.
The commissioners and Lou are going to the mattresses and pushing the AEIOU connections. Anything to keep the arrogant Lou and the same commissioners in Lou's pocket. I think Lou should not have his legal fees paid for at all. If the commissioners authorize payment they should be investigated. The commissioners failed in their official duties caused this legal mess. Leadership at the F.D. my ass.
Hey PW's, GFY. The Cliffwood Beach section had snow piled on the streets and intersections from the first snowfall. Gulden Street and areas of the Concourse looked like Alaska. The corners had snow so high you couldn't see down the streets. Don't gimme that crap! I'll bet the Stathmore section was nice and clean. I'll bet Nsection Joes street was clean. You guys are the whining jerkoff's. As usual Cliffwood Beach gets the shaft. Can't do the job then step aside for someone who can. What's the matter someone didn't thank you for doing your job...Oh' that's right your feelings got hurt 'cause the town didn't thank you for doing the job you get paid to do. Get a life and grow up. Didn't Nsection Joe live in CB once? Another cry baby who forgot where he came from. I know why you guys love running around in those "big" trucks...obviously making up for a shortfall in the "package".
The whole town was slammed with snow genius. Keep ignoring why your neighbors parked in the street and limited snow clearing operations much less the ability for police and ambulances to get to the tighter streets in the community. How about the chip on your shoulder that you have with Mcaleer. Sure the guy lived in the beach so what. Does the beach look better since he started doing the code job. Does the fact he lived there allow him to know what the area needs. Keep blaming everybody around you from your glass house. You call Mcaleer a cry baby what for caring and putting his name to what he does unlike you. You want to be anonymous and criticise people do something yourself other than complain. That is not your style just whining works for you. Poor me nobody made the 60 inches of snow off of the streets fast enough waaaaaahhhh.
Was just awoken by a phone call and told to check the Aberdeener and lo and behold blah blah blah blah blahhhhhhhhhhh blahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh blahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh noise noise noise zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzblah blah blah blah blah blah zzzZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Once again the anonymous attack those who don"t hide who they are. Looks like John Gartlee got up early today. John was a councilman that did nothing and he hates nsec.
Its G A R T L E Y. Get back to school will ya? What is next to resurrect Richard Wolfe too? Go to work will ya?
Hey, GFY again. Bullshit. They had plenty of time since the storms to get out into the neighborhoods. They didn't.. unless of course your on the other side of town. I guess the guy that runs that department is either clueless or he takes money on the side like the rest of that town council. Once again CB gets screwed.
The code guy got me. I got back on the train and there it is a parking ticket from the parking lot avenger. I am going to make him work to prove this one. Doesn't he have anything else to do with his day. I'll get my day in court you can bet on that. Anyone else go up against him in court that can give me some pointers. Let me know.
It is a shame that the cb avenger has no brain. We really should be grateful that you know it snowed.Some day it will jump up and bite you on your ass that you are an idiot.Until then keep living in your fantasy land that the town in your opinion is the land that time forgot . n sect joe is probably one of the only people in this town that has the balls to speak his mind and put his name to it .So to the moron that thinks that c b is getting the raw deal show up to a council meeting and speak your mind if you can find it in time
The CB moron won't show up since that would mean he would have to show himself. Assholes like that just complain. Typical low life offers no proof much less would ever go to a council meeting. As for NJoe and him hating former Mayor Murphy i am sure NJoe would much rather have Murphy back in control than the Norm gang. I can't wait until they start laying people off and all the Norm crap starts flowing out of town hall like a sewer. No way Norm can count on people keeping quiet when they protect Norm and the rest are the wolves in the hen house.
To the person who got the ticket you can go to court and explain yourself. Do you really think he just gives tickets out for kicks much less knew it was you. Maybe you did something to deserve the ticket.
Go to court like everybody else and you will get a shot to prove him wrong.
CB needs to get in the car and drive thru town to see how it really is all over the place. That is if his mommy will let him have the keys for the car. He either can play nintendo, drive an hour in the car or rub his mommies feet. Mommies boy can only do what mommy says. I'll bet she don't know he looks at muscular men all day while she works at the wawa.
I will not respond to the accusations from anonymous from Cliffwood Beach about anything being different anywhere in town.
I will not respond to the parking ticket questions.
I do my job.
Prove that I don't.
What is the above?
ANSWER: Things Joe Mc should say.
To idiots.
Thats funny huh?
Once again we are off topic to the same old BS.
Hey Joe, how do we expect kids to pass any exam when the attendence policy is a joke? We have kids with 20, 30, 40 absenses who have not lost credit, are still enrolled in classes, and are getting credit. The so called policy on attendence is ignored every single day.
Oh, I know lets blame the union right?
Personally, I think promotion should be based upon performance, not attendance.
However, we do have attendance policies and they should be enforced.
I agree that the guy should not respond. The posting is just sour grapes from a guy who can't prove his point. The poster must have little to do but complain. Complain if you want but make it about something worthwhile. Quite obviously there is a considerable amount of corruption and worse among the supposed leadership in the area. If people want to complain make it for something worthwhile.

The town failed to clean up properly. Ask those who couldn't see around the piles up until a few days ago when the rain came. You can spin it any way you want but the cryer has a point to a certain extent. Some areas of CB were bad, especially at the stop signs where the piles were high.
Blah Blah Blah no one wants to be accountable Blah Blah Blah i got a ticket wah wah wah. Cry baby just pay the ticket you screwed up and you own it. Stop the insanity.
Did you call and report the supposedly dangerous snow piles? Did anyone have an accident? Was there any injuries? Did anyone die from all of the snow piles? Did you call the police? Did you do anything about anything or do you just blog from your lazy boy? Get a job will you? The workers in town did a great job. Where would you put all that snow? Maybe in your empty brain there would be enough room? Get real will you couple of whiners?

Whoa, hot head, I never said the town workers didn't do a good job. What I said was the cryer had a point. Just because nobody called the police or there were no accidents doesn't mean it didn't happen. Perhaps the supervisors need a little more direction. Perhaps you just can't see the horse from the plow? Get it, plow? too friggin funny.
Don't forget that nsecbigmouth sent a letter to the paper thanking his coworkers. Then again if you want to complain CB you could also send a letter of complaint the same way. Why not just call the mayor Coach Fred and let him schmooze you with his swarthy charm. Just shut up CB they did the best they could. That was an awful lot of snow for sure and with all the cars it was not easy i bet.
I hear there is another battle looming with the Bellone boys and Lou soon. Keep it up boys. Send the old man packing to the old firemans home. He don't even live in the town. Isn't there a residency requirement? Or is it just by ethnic origin and association with Lou that gets you the commissioners badge and the Lou votes to keep the angry old man in the top spot. What a joke that house is. All because of one old man and his goonsquad.
MINE ALL MINE THAT IS F'N FUNNY. RIGHT FRED? GUTLESS AND SPINELESS IS NO WAY TO GO THROUGH LIFE FRED. STAND UP AND LEAD. TELL NORM HIS TIME IS DONE. MAN UP FRED. IT'S ABOUT TIME.

Excerpt from next weeks episode of: The Bellones of Strathmore
Right around now, the Bellone boys were in the General, being chased by Sheriff Vinny. Seems ole' Boss Lou had some plans to put the Bellone Boys on ice. YEEEEEEEEE HAAAWWWW!!!
It was not only CB, the town did a lousy job plowing in Strathmore as well. Sure there was a tremendous amount of snow, but that doesn't mean the plows should pile the mounds up 6 -10 feet and high at every intersection and corner. Of course the workers needed time to get the job done, but they never came back after the initial plowing to remove the mounds at any of the intersection. There were many days between storms where they could have picked up and loaded these snow mounds into dump trucks.
And YES, there were accidents and injuries, some critical. Look at any of the school bus stops, the kids, young kids are still standing out in the middle of the streets waiting for the bus, because the corners are still piled with snow.
But let's keep whining about not thanking people for doing the job they get PAID to do. BTW, I have no problem thanking workers for doing an excellent job, but this was far from excellent.
Thank you very much, Strathmore! You proved my point.
Nsecbigmouth sent a letter to the paper thanking his co-workers? Do tell. I didn't know they printed a paper in Bedrock. Oh, that's right, the Daily Neanderthal.
I like you questions Aberdeener, but sadly, you'd be hard press to find any of the students in this district, including my own that are prepared to answer these questions or even discuss to any extent these topics. They are simply not taught this material. That is how weak the curriculum still is. Sadly many kids are still struggling with the basics.
Furthermore, there are constant fights at the high school, and no one wants to address any of the basic requirements that would be necessary in order to allow any type of learning to take place.
I'm just praying the new superintendent we hire will be experienced and able to handle these problems that no one wants to address. And many like to pretend don't exist
Experienced? What experience does he have being a superintendent? He was not even considered for superintendent in the district he worked. Nothing will change. He has already been programed by Martucci and the high school principal, where most of the problems you talk about originate. These problems do exist, and prayer will not solve the problems.
But, Nsecmigmouth likes him. Based on what? Give us some reasons why he should be our superintendent for over $170,000 a year. You can't. This is the best we can do?
Aberdeen Municipal Utility Authority Said
N SECTION JOE is full of - you now what - and bought and paid for by Norm and the Dems
N SECTION JOE came before the council CIRCA 1998 and announced that he would no longer be coming to council meeting and holding them to fire as he did at almost every meeting in a very heated and loud tone. He announced he was selling his house in the beach and moving out of town.
Well he did stop coming to the council meetings and he did sell his house in the Beach.
BUT he also took a $63,000 a year job from Norm working for the township of Aberdeen, he drives around town in a 4x4, and he bought a house in Strathmore.
N SECTION JOE is nothing but another Norman puppet.
That explains why he is not at the council meetings or posting about these clowns. If he had a problem with past administrations, this one should be a no brainer. More corruption then ever and not a peep. Whoever gave him that job was a genius.
Who is the new super, and when does he begin?

Superintendent of Schools
Dr. Patrick Piegari,
Interim Superintendent of Schools
I was hired at the same time as Joe McAleer. Maybe you were in a time warp since the dems you claimed gave him a job to shut him up waited six years before supposedly rewarding him with a job. Once again one or two people make absurd claims and there is supposed to be some grand conspiracy. With the lame claims that you try to embarrass him with won't work. Joe does his job. Your claims that he is quiet about the corruption is a stretch. But you know that already since you seem to know ?????? nothing about him. LIke was said before he cares about the town and he puts his name to what he says. Being anonymous is all right if your claim holds a bit of truth. You don't know him, don't work with him and have no idea what any of us do for the community. Sorry if I offend you but you offend yourself.
PUT YOUR CLAIMS WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS
732-583-4200 X 196
STOP COMPLAINING
CONFRONT JOE
YOU WON'T DO IT THOUGH WILL YOU?
YOU PUSSY
KEEP IT UP JOE THESE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF IDIOTS
I apologize for the couple of nameless and faceless people who cannot put their name on their words. I apologize to those of you who may be offended by their conduct. I would sincerely hope that the subjects could be more open for discussions rather than what has been the last few postings above from those who amuse themselves at my expense without real substantive proof.
For the record I did write a letter complimenting the public workers, emergency service workers and others who did a great job in the difficult storms we have endured this winter.
To my veiled attackers the invitation is open for any of the posters above to call me and ask any question they wish of me at anytime. Unlike their childish self amusing dribble I will answer any of their questions honestly. Unlike these two or three I put my name out there as they hide. I find their attempts at embarrassing me laughable. I am already chuckling at what not doubt will be their similarly lame attempts after this post is listed.
I take the time to concentrate on issues relating to the schools in this town. I will honestly admit that I wasted a great amount of time years ago attending countless council meetings although I did seek better representation, a cleaner community and adequate staffing and coverage for our community from their police force. I am proud of the effort, trouble and grief I gave the leadership at that time. The school board controls the far greater tax monies and that needs all of our attention. That is where I concentrate my time and efforts now.
Once again I apologize to the other people on the site for the amateurish distraction above and that will follow this post.
As has been said before to those who need to amuse themselves while seeking some form of self congratulation, so attack away.
One thing I would ask. After you are finished amusing yourself at my expense try and give some time and effort to improve the community.

He concentrates his time and efforts on the school board. Really, when was the last time he was asking relative questions? Where is all this time and effort going into improving this district? This district is a mess and all his does is continue to live in the past. His "endorsement" of the new superintendent is based on what? His conversations with Donaghue, who he constantly defends, and has done more harm to this district than any other person, while gaining personally and being unethical. Just because he puts his name to something doesn't make it gospel, just his slanted point of view. Maybe, some of the attacks are justified, so stop apologizing for others who don't see things the same way and may be more involved in really trying to improve what is going on in our broken system.
In 2004, Edward Stoney had several meetings with Aberdeen code officials to discuss properties that were not up to code with regard to being accessible to the disabled, and ultimately advised that he was preparing to sue the township. In May, Stoney was allegedly warned by township code official, Joseph McAleer, that if he proceeded with his threatened suit, he could receive municipal citations. Stoner filed his suit, and was promptly issued two summonses for two separate violations.
To me, the McAleers of the world are a big part of what’s wrong with not just our school district, but organizations all over. Mr. McAleer feels he represents the people of Matawan-Aberdeen, and he does. He represents the faction consisting of individuals who contribute nothing but always fall back on their inalienable right to complain. I don’t see these types volunteering to coach youth athletics, lead Scouts, or help out with PTO functions, but they remain ever ready to point out the imperfections of those who do. I didn’t see you at the PTO bake sale, Joe.
Mr. McAleer, in your guest column you claim to have "the greatest respect for the PTO organization and those who give tirelessly in the interest of the children/students, and yet you accuse these organizations of spending funds on school board elections and of hoarding money, holding it back from "the children who very often raise the money." Quite oxymoronic, with the emphasis on the latter.
But having two distinctly different views on an issue seems to be your trademark — besides your PTO comments:
First, you complain about your taxes increasing and you refuse to support your school district’s budget, and then jump fence and, in print and on the radio, support the Middletown teachers for striking over salary and benefits. Could this be because your wife is a Middletown teacher? It sounds like you sold out on your principles for 13 pieces of silver. I personally support teachers all over. They deserve their salaries, and if my taxes increase to give them what they deserve, I will pay it gladly.
Next, you admonish the school board, calling it "a school board divided amongst itself," and yet again you back up your wife’s decision to cross a picket line. An act like this truly serves to divide a union against itself.
Third, you call for "tried and true solutions" to our problems such as "redistricting, grade specific schools, and split sessions." You admit they come with "minor inconveniences." I’m taking bets on who will be the first to complain if his child is inconvenienced.
Through all of this, it seems that it comes down to money where you are concerned. Well, if that’s the case, you should sell your house and move. Real estate values are high in Aberdeen right now. Why pay $6,000 in taxes and send your child to a public school you are not satisfied with? I mean, if the milk in your refrigerator is sour, what do you do? Give it to your child anyway and then write an acidic letter about the cow?
When I first read your guest column in the Independent, it bothered me. What I read was a verbal attack on volunteers who give their time only to be chastised by misinformed individuals. I felt like — in the writer’s vernacular — tearing you a new inkwell. Hey, I agree that just because they don’t get paid doesn’t mean they don’t have an obligation to us. But don’t make their jobs harder by writing a column laced with inconsistencies, spiced up with innuendo, flavored with rumors and topped off with misconstrued facts. Hey that sounds like a Big Mac — or maybe a Whopper.
I can’t blame you for your views, Joe — write on. Maybe someone should tell you that the ’60s are over. You can still shout "ban the bomb" and "burn your bra," but stay away from "don’t trust anyone over 30" when you’re there yourself. I can’t blame you, Joe, but I am a little disappointed with the Independent. They allow you to write a column berating our school board, while on the same page the Independent’s own "our view" states "this has been a particularly difficult year for school boards and administrators to prepare next year’s budget." Fine, I applaud your fairness in giving Joe his say, but I do believe you have an obligation to check out his facts, especially when they could be damaging to the reputations of others.

OK, please explain...if a child isn't in school how can he perform?Just give him the exam and if he passes we can graduate him? Let him come in once a week and take a test and if he passes, great?
We do have an attendance policy, but at this point it is a complete joke and my guess would be at least 5-10% of the kids at the HS would be repeating a year if it was followed. However since we dont follow it why not just get rid of it? While we are at it we should get rid of the late policy as well, that is actually a bigger joke.
"If a child isn't in school how can he perform?"

I spend hours each week educating my six-year-old. That's how.
Holy shit! There actually IS someone more long winded than McAleer.
It must be Pres. Kenney. He is pretty long winded himself.
3:03 PM ANONYMOUS WAS PROBABLY A BARZA.
IT IS AMAZING HOW THESE ATTACKERS HAVE SUCH RECOLLECTIONS BUT WON'T STAND UP AGAINST WHAT JOE STANDS UP FOR. I EXPECT THAT ONE OF THE STONEY'S LEFT THE WORDS SO PRECISELY LEGAL AND SEEK TO CONTINUE TO HIDE THEIR IDENTITY. THAT IS TYPICAL OF THE GLASS HOUSE SUCH PEOPLE LIVE IN. IT SEEMS THAT DOING YOUR JOB, CRITICIZING PEOPLE IN LEADERSHIP POSITIONS AND IDENTIFYING YOURSELF IS CRIMINAL WHEN IT ONLY COMES TO JOE BECAUSE HE STANDS BY HIS OPINION. CRITICIZING THOSE FOR STANDING UP FOR YOURSELF WITH AN OPINION IS CIRCUMSPECT AND ATTACKED BY THE ANONYMOUS FEW. WHY IS IT THAT THE PEOPLE WHO IDENTIFY THEMSELVES GET ATTACKED BY THE ANONYMOUS ON HERE AS THOUGH THE ANONYMOUS HAVE SUBSTANTIVE PROOF OR PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE? I JUST FIGURED OUT WHO ALL THE ANONYMOUS ATTACKERS ARE. IT IS NONE OTHER THAN THE AMAZING KRESKIN. ONE SMALL NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO THINK THEY KNOW IT ALL. ALL THE ABOVE STATEMENTS ARE BULL, SLANTED AND ONE OTHER THING TO ASK WHEN DID JOE SELL HIS SOUL? LIKE ANOTHER PERSON JOE SAID HE DID NOT GET THE JOB FOR SELLING OUT HE GOT THE JOB BECAUSE SOMEONE KNEW JOE WOULD DO THE JOB. I AM SURE HIS ATTACKERS COULD NOT TAKE THE JOB AND ITS LACK OF SUPPORT FROM MANAGEMENT. IT IS A JOB THAT TAKES A CERTAIN PERSON AND ABILITY TO DEFLECT CRITICISM FOR DOING THE JOB. THAT IS THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT QUALIFICATION. COULD ANY OF YOU DO THAT JOB. LOOK AROUND I THINK HE DOES HIS JOB REALLY GOOD. HE DOES STAND UP ON ISSUES AND THIS IS NOT THE 60'S. IT IS THE HIDING ANONYMOUS TYPES THAT ARE THE LIBERALS WHO SLINK AROUND IN THE DARK. WHERE WERE YOU WHEN JOE VOICED HIS OPINION FOR MORE POLICE. WHERE WERE YOU WHEN HE FOUGHT BESIDE US FOR SEWERS. WHERE WERE YOU WHEN HE FOUGHT AND STOOD UP FOR MANY THINGS WRONG WITH THE SCHOOLS AND SECURITY. WHERE WERE ALL THESE ANONYMOUS PEOPLE TO SCARED TO IDENTIFY THEMSELVES. I AM TOO OLD TO FIGHT LIKE JOE AND MY TIME IN TOWN IS SOON OVER. I WILL LEAVE IN APRIL AND WILL REMEMBER JOE FOR STANDING UP AND TRYING TO GET US RELIEF FROM THE HEALTH HAZARD WE LIVE WITH FOR YEARS AND YEARS. AM I TO LONG WINDED FOR YOU. TO BAD.

Joe don't care. He wears your faceless criticism as a badge of honor. What is next anonymous attacks on the police or emergency workers for arresting people or enforcing fire lanes? Why don't you people who offer no proof of anything do something but complain. Like was said before why did Kauffie wait six years into Democrat rule to give the job of code enforcement to Joe. Many of our workers in town do much more than the title. I am certain Joe does more. Prove me wrong. Attack away. I expect it just like Joe predicted that he would be. Like a badge of honor I too will take your criticism. I think Kathy Zavorskas was the school PTO complainer. She ruined this district and there were others that hide in the shadows and attack Joe and Ken for their words. Those who attack from the shadows are useless and mindless.

1st amendment yes- but shoving it the face of everyone just because they use a real name on a blog - NO
I would like to see if that Stoney story is really true - if so, sad sad sad....
The Stoney group sue every town without hesitation. They are what the legal profession call gadflies. They sue towns and make a living doing it. Most of the time it takes years and a whole lot of money. If Joe MCaleer did anything wrong that resulted in a lawsuit why would the town not have fired him right away. Answer that question you will find the Stoney's enjoy suing towns. Joe MCaleer is the local fixation probably of a few guilty or embarrassed by Joe before are lashing out. The town would have fired him right away and paid off the Stoney's. I don't think it is true. I have followed Joe in the paper and he has a lot of opinions and none of them I feel were selfish. He always seemed to want to improve the town. Cut the guy a break or identify yourselves to all of us. Haley G.

Joe M is the biggest problem in town. Yes that is it I stand corrected. The few anonymous vindictive posters are doing all of us a favor by outing Joe M as the biggest problem in Aberdeen. Did i mention they are anonymous posters have identified all of the problems in town as being Joe M. They have shown us the truth. Joe M is the problem. It is not the extra 20 million bar-za cost the taxpayers during their arrogant reign. It is not Kauff and his gang and the too long one party rule and corrupt control that give their cronies millions of our tax dollars through their pervasive and outright political insider deals and other typical political corruption examples. No it is Joe M he is the real problem. How dare Joe M move to Strathmore. Ask Joe M if he wanted to move to Strathmore. How dare Joe M point out that Bruce Quinn was not certified to run a school district and bar-za allowed it to happen. How dare Joe M point out the test scores that bar-za and Bruce Quinn never improved. How dare Joe Mc be friendly with GD of the school board because their daughters are best friends. How dare Joe M have any friends. No Joe M is the biggest problem in Aberdeen. How dare Joe M research and present a study to town management that showed Aberdeen needed more police and why. How dare Joe M take a job after refusing it twice if not more because it came with restrictions that he would not sell himself for. How dare Joe M do his job. No Joe M is the problem in town. One man who cares about his town like that should be scorned anonymously. Are you f'n kidding me. You people who criticize him from your cold dead hearts are asses. Keep it up Joe M I say.
THE ASSHOLE WHO POSTED AT 3:03 IS ZAVORSKAS FOR SURE. LASH OUT YOU CRAZY BITCH. REVEL IN YOUR FAILURE WHILE REVEL IN THE DEBT YOU PLACED ON US TAXPAYERS. KEEP IT UP JOE MAC. F THEM ALL.

I'd love if parents had ANY role in their child's education, but realistically that is a joke. Parents involvement is pretty much non existant especially in the HS.
I know you live in another galaxy(and I don't mean Brooklyn)but your lack understanding of what really happens in schools, is the biggest insult of you being on a board of ed.

Looks like the Stoney's daughter posted at 3:00 and 3:03 yesterday. I thought she moved away with mommy and daddy to Ohio? Guess not? It had to be the same person due to the time frame. If it looks like those posts,the 3:03 posting includes the same old rehash of PTO and scouting stuff we saw a while ago. I think it can only be a Stoney. The 3:00 post was probably off of some old court thing. The 3:03 post was just more of the typical anonymous babble against the one guy who identifies himself. Call the guy and ask the question or shut up and get back into your rat hole. Sure he has opinions on everything don't we all. Who cares really.

Keep blaming those who don't hide behind the keys on the computer like most of you do. One question, didn't someone name Stoney sue the town over Midland Glass years ago? I think they moved a couple of years ago. I think they moved and are just looking for something to do by embarrassing Joe. Many have tried and he is still here trying to better the community. What have you done you anonymous big mouth and do nothing types?
Grow up will ya?
Aberdeener,
Do you have any knowledge from when you were on the school board if any discussion was given as to why our district school schedules, are between 30minutes (@MAMS) and 45 minutes (@ HS) less than the NJ state average for educational instruction time. It seems reasonable to me that if we want to improve our students' education, they need the proper amount of time receiving educational instruction. Many might say what good is another 5-7 minutes per period, to which I say, that allows for time to get organized, or extra time for teachers to explain and reinforce more difficult material to the students.
While I understand your frustration, with Moores closing, leaving you less things to occupy your time, but, you moved out of town too, Wally.
Anon,
The middle school had moved to a block schedule to increase class time. I don't know what effect it had. Aside from that, the school day is contractually limited by contract with the teachers union.
Considering we've now had two (albeit anonymous) posters defending parents' non-involvement with their children's education as if it were a law of nature, I think the greater problem is that children don't spend enough time learning at home with their parents.
Man I thought Joe McAleer was just a town worker. Now according to anonymous postings he can intimidate witnesses, judges and even control various appeals through the court systems all over the state.
These people make me laugh. Does anyone really think all this came from one man and that this one man can do all of that.
The anonymous posting on here about some lawsuit are probably the ones keeping the lawsuit going. Either that or Joe McAleer is all powerful.
Yeah thats the ticket!
I get it now?
Joe M is more powerful than Kauff.
Joe M really runs Aberdeen not Kauff.
He hires the crooked professionals.
He takes the Kauff %.
He hired Bruce Quinn.
He is barza.
He is in prison in Florida not Mark Coren.
He is the one who raised school taxes $20 million.
He controls the court in Aberdeen.
He is the town manager.
He lives on Injustice Lane with Mrs. Kauff.
He controls all court appeals in NJ.
He is in control of everything.
He wants people to think he cares about Aberdeen.
He hates Aberdeen and its residents.
He gives tickets to pregnant women. (my fave)
He just lets people park wherever then tickets them.
He hates everyone.
He kicks children and animals.
He pushes people in wheelchairs onto the tracks.
Do you people who attack Joe M anonymously see how really stupid you are? Why don't you call the Monmouth County Prosecutors Office and turn Joe M in for being the criminal mastermind you idiots portray him to be? The guy cares and that is enough for me against all the faceless anonymous types.
Get a hobby will ya?
Obama cares and look where this country is! Maybe we should give him a raise. Would 9% be good. Then maybe he will leave.
Thank god we have a new subject post we can start to listen to the anonymous idiots on this new subject. How they will they work Ken and Joe into this new subject? I can't hardly wait? Not!
Not that Wally Stephens. Like the song says *you don't know me*. Nice try though?
Thats great the teachers not only work for part of the year and get full time pay but they also have a shorter day then a normal school district in NJ. Because its in the contract? What the hell is that. Someone needs to act ASAP and shut this shit down. Give the money back to the towns. This all about the children stuff is getting out of hand. How much does it cost?
Did not the Kauffcil controlled zoning board just deny signs for two local businesses, Livottis and the Sports Zone? This crap about the council being friendly to business is bullshit. I guess the two businesses were unwilling to accept a donation shakedown. Hey but it is no problem to get a variance to divide a postage stamp size piece of land to build another house as long as a campaign contributor may possibly get the work or if the project will be "managed" by CME.
Got it Kemosabe, to get shit done in Aberdeen you have to pony up.
If Republicans are smart they should tell those owners straight away that they are going to be business friendly.
