When I was a child growing up on The Jersey Shore, we often heard stories of the so-called "Jersey Devil" and that one had to be careful when traipsing around the Pine Barrens lest we inadvertently run into the monster...it was our own 'local' bogeyman! The Jersey Devil is a legendary creature said to inhabit the Pine Barrens of Southern New Jersey and the Jersey Shore. The creature is often described as a flying biped with hooves, but there are many variations. The Jersey Devil has worked its way into the pop culture of the area, even lending its name to the National Hockey League Team (NHL), the New Jersey Devils, three time Stanley Cup Champions.  Most accounts of the Jersey Devil legend attribute the creature to a "Mother Leeds", a supposed witch, although the tale has many variatio... 11/05/2010

Don't we all enjoy the idea of someone looking at our palm or reading tarot cards and telling us (obvious) things about ourselves?  This is a similar concept, except Graphology has been accepted as a true methodical gauge of personal qualities and behavior analysis and is widely in use today by government and industry. There will be Handwriting Analysis at Ocean County Library, Stafford Branch, Thursday, October 28 from 1:30 to 3:30 PM. Unconvinced?  Let me give you a personal anecdote: Many years ago, I was a headhunter (recruiter) in Houston; a gentleman came into my office who was employed by the FBI as a Handwriting Analyst. He was helping his son find a position.  Deciding to have a little fun (and being more than a little skeptical), I asked him if he would look at my writing and ... 10/27/2010

A new law expands the current choice program, opening it to any interested school district in the state. The School Choice Program supports efforts to establish or expand intradistrict, interdistrict, and open enrollment public school choice programs to provide parents, particularly parents whose children attend low-performing public schools, with expanded education options. A sending district could limit the number of students leaving the district to attend choice schools to 10 percent per grade or 15 percent of the total enrollment. Students applying to the choice school must spend at least one school year in their hometown school district, unless they already have a sibling in the choice district. Stafford Township School District, in Ocean County, has been part of the pilot program ... 09/13/2010

I am the listing agent for new construction in Stafford Township, New Jersey. The development is Forest Ridge Estates http://www.homesforsaleinstaffordnj.com and when complete will have 24 homes on two cul-de-sac streets. Unlike many builders in the area the builder has decided to price all the upgrades in the starting price. Many of the other local builders have priced the new homes with no upgrades and have a lower (can advertise lower) starting price.What do you think is a more effective pricing strategy?  So far the reaction to this has been very interesting. 09/13/2010

Kitchen Appliance Buying Guide New space-aged appliances have the American kitchen looking more and more like the bridge of a science-fiction spaceship. High tech innovations, upgrades to energy efficiency, sleek style enhancements and lowering prices all make new kitchen appliances appealing to a number of different types of consumers.

Everyone is looking for ways to save money.   One area you do not want to skimp on is homeowners insurance.  Just because property values may have dropped, it does not automatically mean you need less property insurance!Even if your home value has decreased, that doesn't mean you want to lower the amount of coverage.  Chances are it will still be more expensive to rebuild your home now than when you first bought it.So it's important that your homeowners insurance keeps pace with rebuilding costs, rather than the market value of your home.  This is particularly true for homes at the Jersey Shore which face hurricanes, pinelands brush fires and the dreaded winter nor'easter!Make sure you know how your home will be replaced.  Sometimes insurance policy language can be tricky.  Get verifica... 01/11/2009
