$350 million complex to local businessowners.

Nametko began his brief speech to theroom with a simple question: “Who in theroom has children that play travel sports?”About 20 of the nearly 150 people inattendance raised their hand.

“You see?” said Nametko, who foundedMagic Sports. “This is an industry that hasa lot of participation. Residents ofVineland not supporting this don’t knowwhat it does. This is an industry that can

bring in excess of $300 million toVineland, annually, drawing people intothe area from Connecticut all the waydown to Maryland and perhaps even fur-ther. What else can you put on 300 openacres that will do the same?”

Much like it was five weeks ago, thepositive economic impact of the massivesports facility was once again the theme ofthe pitch. Nametko discussed the injectionof money into the local economy, whileFilipek focused on job creation.

“We’ve done some projections, and wethink we can create 1,200 to 1,500 tempo-rary construction jobs for both the sportsfacility and the hotel, while creatingsomewhere in the range of 1,000 perma-

nent jobs between the two,” said Filipek,who is the CEO of Sora NortheastDevelopment, the company that hasagreed to finance the project.

While there was generally a positivereception for the proposal from the areabusiness owners in attendance, some ofthem did have their reservations.

“I am concerned about the funding ofthis project,” said Gary Galloway, whoowns Rental Country. “We had theMillville Motorsports Park, which seemssimilar to this, and they recently declaredbankruptcy and burned a lot of businessowners. How can we know this won’t hap-pen again with [the Magic SportsComplex]?”

“The financing, we’re currently work-ing on,” replied Filipek. “We’ve secured itfor the pre-development. Our secondphase will be finalized by the end of thisyear. And the overall funding should besecured in the first quarter of [2013]. Wehave a majority of that in place already.It’s an unusual situation because we’re notgoing through a bank, but we expect tohave the needed financing in place.

“I want to mention that I’m investingin this project with my own money,” headded. “It’s something I believe in. AtSora, we’re concerned not just with build-ing the facility, but building the communi-ty. It needs to be a win-win-win—a win onall sides, otherwise we wouldn’t do it.” I

Among thosehonored was Nancy Collis of Millville,who was named the 2012 IndividualVolunteer of the Year at the Chapter Level.Collis began volunteering with SONJ

in the late 1970s, when a friend askedher to help out with the awards at a localtrack and field competition. From there,she recruited other volunteers to design software to more efficiently manage thecompetitive events and awards ceremonies, creating a sophisticated event manage-ment system. While still organizing and executing awards ceremonies that wouldrecognize the achievements of thousands of athletes in her area, Collis becamefurther involved in other aspects such as fundraising and area management.The Volunteer of the Year at the Chapter Level award is reserved for an individual

who best exemplifies voluntary action to the statewide Special Olympics program.

Our opponents believe everythingis fine and have offered no plan for the future except tocontinue “business as usual.”I believe “business as usual” is not an option. We need newideas and new leadership in city government with an unwaveringcommitment to reducing the tax burden, encouragingdevelopment opportunities, and improving our quality of life.To this end, The Bermudez Team has detailed a specific plan forpositive change based on three guiding principles:

Asthe holidays approach and thepossibilities of a New Year arise,United Way of GreaterPhiladelphia and Southern New

Jersey (UWGPSNJ) in Cumberland County isset to start 2013 in a big way, as we strengthenour Impact agenda to improve Education,Income and Health for even moreCumberland County residents.This plan kicked into high gear in July,

when United Way of Greater CumberlandCounty joined forces with six other UnitedWays to formUWGPSNJ—a regional organiza-tion committed to improving lives and creatingcommunity-level impact in the areas ofEducation, Income andHealth. The communi-ties served include Pennsylvania’s Chester,Delaware, Montgomery and Philadelphia coun-ties, and New Jersey’s Atlantic, Burlington,Camden, CapeMay, and Cumberland counties.At the heart of the merger was the realizationthat together, we would be stronger. And bysharing resources, talents and relationships,we can address the root causes of chroniccommunity problems more effectively in eachof our local communities.STRATEGY: We’re also bringing a fresh

approach to grant-making and communityinvestment, with a focus on delivering measur-able results and targeted outcomes in each ofour priority areas. With this transition comesrenewed support for Cumberland’s core focusareas of Education, Income and Health—andtogether, with teams of volunteers and com-munity experts, we’re assessing communityneeds and developing effective strategies toaddress them. We believe that strategic invest-ments and collaborative partnerships are themost effective ways to support sustained pos-itive change in Cumberland County.For example, we recently announced a

Request for (Funding) Proposals to supportour Education initiative. This competitivegrant process will support non-profit pro-grams that effectively address truancy, an areaof great concern among Cumberland County’syouth. Research has shown that one of thesingle greatest markers of a student “at-risk” isthe number of days he/she spends in school.By targeting middle school and junior highstudents, we can engage our youth duringthese vulnerable adolescent years and helpthem stay on track to high school graduation.And this is just the beginning—we will roll outother innovative funding strategies over time.LEADERSHIP: In addition, we recently

appointed Clare Sapienza-Eck, Vice President

of Business Development and PhysicianServices at South Jersey Healthcare—and apivotal community leader and volunteer—Chair of our Local Operating Board, com-prised of 15members fromthe CumberlandCounty commu-nity. Clare hasworked inCumberlandCounty for morethan 17 years andhas served onUnited Way’s Board for many years. She willalso serve as one of two volunteers fromCumberland County on the UWGPSNJRegional Board of Directors.VOLUNTEERS: Volunteers like Clare

remain at the forefront of our work inCumberland County, and the upcomingVolunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) pro-gram is a shining example of volunteerism inaction. This annual free tax preparation pro-gram targets households making less than$50,000 and often results in a much neededeconomic stimulus for these families. Lastyear alone, the VITA program in CumberlandCounty prepared 900 returns, translating intonearly $850,000 in refunds for local residents.This year, we estimate that over 20,000 localresidents will qualify and by accessing VITA,will save hundreds on tax preparation fees.These dollars can instead be used to pay

down debt, save for homeownership or otherinvestments, or to make local purchases. Thisprogram is free and will begin in earlyFebruary for eligible residents. Those interest-ed in becoming a VITA volunteer tax preparershould contact our office at 856-205-1880.IRS-supported training will be provided.As we look toward 2013 with renewed hope

and optimism for our residents, we encourageyou to pledge your support. Like you, weremain challenged by the still-sluggish econo-my, but we are also energized for the comingyear as part of a larger UnitedWay family. Andwith our new Board Chair and a re-energizedfocus on local results, we hope to once againgalvanize the community to meet this year’sfundraising goal. Together, we can createcommunity-level change by improving educa-tion for children, income stability for familiesand health for all.

Amerigo Falciani, DOMedical Director

Asin the past, I want to give youan end-of-year summary of theactivities and accomplishmentsof our four standing commit-

tees—Organization, Promotions, Design,and Economic Restructuring. I’ll fill you inon the projects they’re working on and, forthose of you who are new to this column,I’ll briefly explain each committee’s role.As the Organization Committee is the

first committee to meet during the month—and as it contributes the resources that makethe work of the other committees happen, itwill come first. Chaired by Jason Scythes, itcontinues to move forward proactively.Money and volunteers make up the

lifeblood of any Main Street district.Through fundraising efforts to seek dona-tions and sponsorships, we make sure thatwe have the money to fund our projects.Through volunteer recruitment and reten-tion efforts, we make sure that we havepeople interested in helping with our proj-ects, programs, and events. Our fundraisingand volunteer subcommittees work hard onmany initiatives to meet these goals.A strong fundraising program is more

imperative now than ever. That means cre-ating fundraising plans to cover donations,contributions, and sponsorships.Fundraising drives and events are part ofthis plan. Our successful “A Taste ofVineland” events—this year and last year—were not only financially successful butalso created awareness of Main StreetVineland and the many great restaurants inVineland. Other fundraising initiatives arebeing planned for next year and you will bereading about them in future columns.Our organization needs worker bees to

put projects into action, which makes vol-unteer recruitment and retention efforts soimportant. Brenda Ramos heads theVolunteer Subcommittee and she is plan-ning to bring more interested people toMain Street Vineland.To communicate the purpose and suc-

cesses of Main Street Vineland to potentialvolunteers, we have had VolunteerInformation and Networking Events(VINE). This has included an informativeand entertaining PowerPoint presentation

and a meet-and-greet with CommitteeChairs and current volunteers.We continue to take Main Street

Vineland “on the road” through speakerpresentations for various clubs and organi-zations. As with the VINE event, informa-tional and volunteer recruitment brochuresare handed out at these presentations.Each April, we honor our outstanding

volunteers at our Volunteer RecognitionBrunch. Awards are given out, including thePresident’s Volunteer Service Award.Whenyou measure the time, effort, and dedicationput in by our volunteers, you see the degreeof pride that exists in these people in mak-ing our downtown the best it can be.For three years, our volunteer recruit-

ment and retention programs have beensponsored by Capital Bank. Their supporthas gone a long way to making these pro-grams possible and we thank Capital Bankfor partnering with us in this.Another responsibility of the Organization

Committee is to provide information aboutMain Street Vineland activities and thebusinesses that make up our downtown.Our newsletter, Downtown Update,

appears regularly in this newspaper andhighlights upcomingMain Street Vinelandactivities, along with activities of LandisMarketPlace. Information is also sharedamong the four committee chairpersons atour monthly Chair Chat—another initiativeof the Organization Committee.I want to thank Jason and Brenda, as

well as the other volunteers whose dedica-tion is so important to the OrganizationCommittee’s work.***During the holiday shopping season,

make downtown Vineland your destinationfor buying that special gift, as well as forfun all year round. Save money on gasoline,avoid the long lines at the malls and shop-ping centers, and also enjoy plenty of enter-tainment that we have right in town. I

Christmas ClassicThe Landis Theater’s film selection for tomorrow evening brings to mind a songof the same name.

Somehow the idea of opening aChristmas film on the eve of aWorld War II battle seems incon-gruous. An American troop is

enjoying a brief respite from fighting bywatching a variety show staged by fellowsoldiers and witnessing the birth of asong and dance team. But the gloom ofthe impending battle is present in theHollywood set and in the newly assignedgeneral who orders the entertainment tostop. His predecessor delays carrying outthat command, setting the wheels ofWhite Christmas, the Landis Theater’sholiday film selection on Thursdayevening at 7:30, into motion.This prologue is particularly moving in

its rendering of the title song by IrvingBerlin whose tunes provide the movie’ssoundtrack and are performed by a castled by Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye,Rosemary Clooney and Vera Ellen (actu-ally Trudy Stevens who provided Ellen’ssinging voice) But it wasn’t the tune’s firstappearance in a movie or as a recording.The history of the song “White

Christmas” begins in 1940 when Berlinwrote it. According to film sources,Crosby’s first performance of it was onhis CBS radio show on Christmas Day1941. The singer recorded it in May 1942before it found its way into the cinemathat year when Crosby was teamed withFred Astaire in the first Berlin showcase,Holiday Inn, for which “WhiteChristmas” won an Oscar for BestOriginal Song. Four years later, Crosbyand Astaire appeared in a second featurewith a Berlin soundtrack, Blue Skies.The continued popularity of “White

Christmas” on the seasonal hit parademade Paramount eager to reunite the twostars in 1949 for a film of the same title. Itwould utilize old and new Berlin materialin a storyline partially based on a newmusical the composer had been puttingtogether. Film sources report that, uponreading the script, Astaire turned downthe role of Phil Davis, the comic half ofthe popular performing duo Wallace andDavis, thus putting an end to his andCrosby’s screen reunion.A logical replacement was Donald

O’Connor, fresh from his brilliant per-formance in Singin’ in the Rain. He signedon but was forced to leave at the start of

production because of ill-ness. According to theTurner Classic Movies web-site, when Kaye wasapproached, he asked for anextraordinary sum of$200,000 and 10 percent ofthe gross, expectingParamount to turn himdown. Instead, they agreedto it, calculating that post-poning production untilO’Connor recovered wouldamount to the same price.Clooney and Ellen, as the

Haynes sisters whose con-trived meeting with Wallaceand Davis blossoms intoromance, add to the enter-tainment, particularly Ellenwho provides several spell-binding dance sequenceschoreographed by RobertAlton and a young uncredit-ed Bob Fosse. Clooney, natu-rally, provided her ownsinging, and in the case ofthe tune “Sisters,” is actually singing bothparts of the siblings’ duet. According tofilm sources, Clooney was prevented fromtaking part in the sessions for the sound-track album of the movie because of herrecording contract at the time and wasreplaced on vinyl by Peggy Lee.Director Michael Curtiz, who had pre-

viously helmed a series of WarnerBrothers films including the classicCasablanca, usedWhite Christmas as hisParamount debut. It became the biggesthit of his career.Filmed in the autumn of 1953,White

Christmas was released the followingyear, earning what sources claim was thehighest box office figure for a cinemarelease that year at $12 million. The sec-ond highest grossing film of 1954, TheCaine Mutiny, wasn’t even close at $8.7million.Over the decades,White Christmas has

joined the top rank of holiday movies, butit never reached the peaks achieved by itstitle song. Sources report that, in additionto climbing to the top chart position sev-eral times in the 1940s, the tune enjoyedthe prestigious achievement of remainingthe best-selling record for over 50 years.

There’s no denying there’s somethingspecial about this particular Christmassong, whether it’s part of a feel-goodmovie like the Landis Theater’s Thursdayoffering or the track playing on your CDplayer, iPod or turntable. Its message—“May your days be merry and bright, andmay all your Christmases be white”—iswhat really matters. I

The 1954 classic White Christmas had astar-studded cast, including RosemaryClooney and Bing Crosby in lead roles.

Numerous readers have emailedand asked me a personal ques-tion: “What would YOU like tosee happen with the fiscal cliff?”

We thank you for the question.Please remember, this missive will not be

about what is going to happen. We do notknow that outcome and neither does anyoneelse. We hold an opinion that there is a dealcoming. We think it will be at the 11th houror even early next year after we tumble overthe January 1 cliff. But that is just aninformed guess. President Obama didn’t addmuch clarity to that view in his Bloomberginterview today. Readers may see it and hearit on Bloomberg.com.Instead, today’s letter is about what we

would like to see happen, and why. My view issimple: until we experience the cliff, we willnot understand what it really means. Hence,we will not act wisely if we do it prospectively.We believe the markets and citizenry are

too complacent about our government. USinvestors are used to watching theWashington charade. Voters, in nearly everycongressional jurisdiction, are trapped bylimited choices, which is why we re-electmost incumbents. Our politics are the poli-tics of default choices.Our markets are driven by forces such as

low interest rates and global demand andgeopolitical risk. We go on about our dailybusiness in spite of our broken government.We engage in a collective trillion economicdecisions each and every day, without gov-ernment help. Leave us alone and we canpretty much figure out what to do.We have a broken political system, in

which our leaders are about as popular as theproverbial used-car salesperson (according to

recent polls). Most of us feel that way aboutthem but cannot do anything about it, so wego on with our lives and let the self-serving“leaders” in Washington decide our fate.One defining characteristic of Americans is

to rally in time of crisis. We do that in wartime.We do that with natural disasters like Katrinaand Sandy. We do that with regard to healthmatters. We are generous with our charity.Mainstream Americans are mostly good folks.But we are reactive, not proactive.So, let’s see if we can rally to deal with

this government crisis. But we won’t do itunless and until we know we have a real cri-sis on our hands. So, let’s have at it. To getthere, we need to go over the cliff and staythere long enough to actually begin to expe-rience what it feels like, and what it means,to be off the precipice.Let’s see what happens when all the

income tax credits expire on lower incomesand when 140 million Americans get hit withan average $1000 a year in a payroll tax hike.Let’s see what the experience is when seques-tration kicks in hard. Let’s watch the layoffs ofdefense contractors who have to downsizesince they won’t be paid by the federal gov-ernment. Let’s tax capital and dividends andincome at high rates and let our citizens beginto feel the impact in their pocketbooks. Let’stax estates at confiscatory rates. Let’s allowtax-free bonds to be penalized when ourschools and sewer systems need financing.

Let’s subject 24 million folks to the alternativeminimum tax. And on, and on, and on.The political morons generalize in their

pronouncements because they fear giving usreal details. Our president repeatedly attacksthe rich with class-warfare rhetoric. He saysupper 2% of income but he doesn’t say thatmany are independent businesses. Does heever mention an S-Corp small business that istrying to accumulate capital to grow a busi-ness and hire folks? Many small businessesfinds themselves burdened with a marginaleffective tax rate above 50% under the pres-ent tax system – before we even go over thecliff? That is where a small business can finditself when all taxes imposed are combined.Obama avoided this detail today. He cited

CEOs of big companies. He ignored the halfof the country that is small and independentfirms even while claiming that 97% of them

will benefit.Obama uses the new-age definition of mil-

lionaire: a couple filing a joint income taxreturn with a $250,000 annual income. Henever mentioned that his failure to compro-mise means the lower-income tax groups willincur a very high tax hike once we’re off thecliff. He never admits that some of the lowermiddle-class tax rates he claims are obtainedare in place by using the deception of credits.The Republicans are not any better.

Republicans never say, “We defend the 15%carried interest provision.” They neverexplain the details by which many wealthyAmericans benefit from provisions in the taxcode that are engineered to benefit the fewat the expense of the many. They just say nochanges in tax rates. And now they are clam-oring for “revenue,” which means changingthe tax code, not the rates.Readers, please note, it is the effective tax

rate that really counts. Let me repeat andadd clarity. It is ONLY the effective tax ratethat counts.Both Republicans and Democrats are

disingenuous. That is a nice term for lying tous and deceiving us and using fuzzy languageto mask the truth.So, my personal proposal is to have a

major fight and a resulting stalemate thatpersists until there is real pain in the land. Iwould like to see my fellow citizens get real-ly angry with Washington and set aside theirpartisan differences and then throw outsome of the bums of both parties.I would like to see us get mad enough and

scared enough and clear enough aboutwhat’s really happening to us, that we realizewe have to pull together to claw our wayback from the cliff and get this country onstable ground.Let me invoke a scene from a movie that

will date me. What I want you to do is throwopen the window, stick out your head, and yell“I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take thisanymore.” If you are too young to rememberthe movie, Google the phrase and watch thescene (YouTube will take you there).That is what I would like to see happen,

dear readers. We need to open our windowsand yell. Get 314 million of us angry enoughat our government, and we will stop thisnonsense. Unless we get that angry, this bro-ken-down system of ours is going to go click-ety-clack right off the cliff.Happy holidays to all cliff dwellers (us).

Get angry. Tell your congress people thatyou’re angry. Whether you’re Democrat orRepublican, be angry, be clear-headed, anddemand the truth. It’s our country!Thank you for asking. I

Holiday Pet Safety TipsYou can help keep pets safe during the

holiday season by following the tips:• Many holiday plants can lead to health

problems in dogs and cats. Among theplants to keep out of reach are holly,mistletoe, poinsettias and lilies.• Snow globes often contain antifreeze,

which is poisonous to pets.• Pine needles, when ingested, can

puncture holes in a pet’s intestine. So keeppet areas clear of pine needles.• The extra cords and plugs of holiday

lights and other fixtures can look likechew toys to pets. Tape down or covercords to help avoid shocks, burns or otherserious injuries. Unplug lights when youaren’t home.• Anchor Christmas trees to the ceiling

with a string to keep it from falling on pets.• Do not let pets drink the holiday tree

water. Some may contain fertilizers, andstagnant tree water can harbor bacteria.Check labels for tree water preservativesand artificial snow, and buy only those thatare nontoxic. Some folks use screensaround trees to block access to electricalcords and gifts.• Pets, particularly cats, can be tempted

to eat tinsel, which can block the intestines.Hang tinsel high and securely to keep it outof reach of pets.• Keep other ornaments out of reach of

pets. Ingestion of any ornament, whichmight look like toys to pets, can result inlife-threatening emergencies. Even orna-

ments made from dried food can lead toailments. And remember, shards from bro-ken glass ornaments can injure paws,mouths and other parts of the body.• Put away toys after children open their

gifts. Small plastic pieces and rubber ballsare common causes of choking and intestin-al blockage in dogs. Ingested plastic or clothtoys must often be removed surgically.• Avoid toxic decorations. Bubbling

lights contain fluid that can be inhaled oringested, snow sprays and snow flock cancause reactions when inhaled, styrofoamposes a choking hazard, tinsel can causechoking and intestinal obstruction, andwater in snow scenes may contain toxicorganisms such as Salmonella.• Keep candles on high shelves. Use

fireplace screens to avoid burns.• Holiday guests and other activity can

be very stressful and even frightening topets. It can also trigger illness and intestinalupset. Make sure pets have a safe place toretreat in your house. Andmake sure theyare wearing current I.D. in case they escapeout a door when guests come and go.• Reduce stress by keeping feeding and

exercise on a regular schedule.• Always make time to care for your

pets. Some folks get lax about walking theirdogs, and a few resort to letting pets out ontheir own. This puts the animal in danger,while also leading to nuisance complaintsand dog bite incidents. Remind pet ownersnot to take a holiday from responsibly car-ing for their pets. I

Real Estate NewsI

Holiday lighting displays are abeloved holiday tradition. Manyfamilies enjoy illuminating their

homes with decorative lights, and somecommunities even reward the householdthat goes above and beyond with theirholiday lighting display.But as enjoyable and eye-catching as

such displays can be, they also can beequally as dangerous. Hanging lights car-ries a certain degree of risk, and it’s bestfor homeowners to be as cautious as pos-sible when erecting their holiday lightingdisplays.* Start with the lights. Inspecting the

lights is an important part of creating asafe holiday lighting display, and thisinspection should occur before you begindecorating. Examine each string of lightsfor damaged wires, including any looseconnections or broken sockets. Discardany damaged sets before decorating. Ifyour inspection turns up any burned outbulbs, always replace the older bulbs withnew bulbs of the same wattage. In thepast, a good rule of thumb was to limiteach extension cord to no more than threesets of lights. However, if using LEDbulbs, which consume as much as 90 per-cent less energy than traditional incandes-cent bulbs, you can have more sets con-nected to a single extension cord.After inspecting the lights, inspect the

other tools you will be using. Make surethe ladder is sturdy and that your staplegun and other tools are ready to be used.If any tools fail your inspection, delay thedecorating until you can find adequatereplacements.* Only decorate in the daytime.

Sunlight can be sparse during the holidayseason, when the sun goes down beforemany working men and women leave theiroffices much less arrive home. But deco-rating at night is asking for trouble, somake time to decorate during the daytime.Decorating during the day makes it easierto see potentially problematic power lines,and the weather likely won’t be as harshduring the daytime as it will be at night,reducing your risk for injury.* Never decorate alone. When decorat-

ing, always have someone nearby in caseof emergency. Falling from a ladder cancause serious harm, but having someonethere to hold the ladder can reduce yourrisk of falling. In addition, a decoratingpartner can contact emergency personnel

should you suffer an injury and becomeunable to reach the telephone.* Trim trees before decorating. Winter

might not be the ideal time to trim trees,but streaming lights on overgrown treescould pose a significant safety risk. A treethat hasn’t been trimmed might havegrown close to power lines. When thattree is covered in holiday lights, contactwith the power line could electrify thetree, potentially causing property damageor personal injury to anyone within closeproximity to the affected tree. If you’reworried about trimming a tree outside ofits recommended trimming season, do notdecorate that tree with any lights.* Strategically place lights. Lights

should never conceal a window, and thecords should never be run across walk-ways or steps. Lights that are strewnacross a window pose a safety hazardshould a fire occur at the home and win-dow escape is needed. Cords that havebeen run across walkways and steps pose atripping hazard, especially if a light snow-fall makes it difficult for family membersor guests to see the cords on the ground.* Make sure the lights are not on when

no one is home. Lights should never be onwhen no one is home. This poses a signifi-cant safety risk, and no homeowner wantsto arrive home to see their house hasburned down or suffered damage from afire. In addition, turn the lights off beforeyou go to sleep at night. This makes thehome safer at night and will save you asubstantial amount of money. I
