At The Jewish Centers world record-breaking event, Chanukah forthe Record, about 1,000 people attended, bringing menorahs of allkinds.

World record brokenBY HEATHER FIORE

The Montgomery Sun

On Tuesday, Dec. 11, the fourth

night of Chanukah, The JewishCenter in Princeton successfullyrallied around 1,000 people in oneof Princeton Airports hangars tolight 834 menorahs and break theGuinness World Record for themost menorahs lit at one time inone place.

Residents from all over MercerCounty and Montgomery Town-ship came together to break therecord, which was previously

held by Merrick Jewish Centre inLong Island at 782 menorahs, ac-cording to organizer of the eventand Director of Programming at

The Jewish Center Neil Wise.Wise also explained how the

record hadnt been set by anyUnited States-based congregationor organization prior to the Mer-rick Jewish Centre, and original-ly was set in Russia.

The idea was sparked bythinking about what we could dofor Chanukah that no one else hasdone and something that will en-gage people enough to light to-

gether for Chanukah as a commu-nity, he said. At The JewishCenter, we are always thinkingout of the box in terms of our hol-

iday programming. We dont re-peat programs; we reinvent pro-grams.

Wise explained how intricatethe Guinness World Recordsguidelines are and what he had todo to prepare for the event, espe-cially since The Jewish Centerdidnt hire a Guinness WorldRecord official to oversee the

By HEATHER FIOREThe Montgomery Sun

At Montgomery Townshipscommittee meeting on Dec. 6, thecommittee adopted a continuingoccupancy ordinance, which re-quires re-inspection for rentalproperties whenever theyre re-rented by another occupant, ac-cording to Township Administra-tor Donato Nieman.

The whole purpose was to in-

spect rental properties when theywere re-rented, and this was anoutgrowth of some incidencesthat occurred in 2012 when wehad three or four apartment fires

in the Princeton Hill Apartmentcomplex, he said. We found thesame issues within the apart-ments smoke detector and car-bon monoxide detector issues things, had there been inspec-tions, may have provided an addi-tional margin of safety and pre-vented some of the events fromoccurring.

The idea had been around forawhile, and I think the fires werethe impetus necessary to get the

legislation enacted, he added.The ordinance, which was

passed upon the request and ap-proval of the Montgomery Town-ship Board of Health and Fire

Prevention Bureau, allows thetownship to inspect rental proper-ties to ensure fire detection de-vices are functioning, which wasthe main issue driving this ordi-nance.

When Fire Marshals wentinto the buildings [Princeton HillApartments], they determinedthere were problems with smokedetectors and in some instances,ventilation fans in bathroomsthat accumulated enough dirt

and grime that they couldve beenthe source of fires, Nieman said.

As the holiday season begins to

wind to a close, we want to

take this opportunity to thank

everyone who stepped up to help those

in need. This time of year usually

brings out the best in people. Judging

from the number of announcements

we received from our readers regard-

ing donation drives, it looks like this

year was no exception.

This year, Hurricane Sandy created

a great need in many communities.

Food banks were running low after

sending supplies to those communities

hit hard by the storm. The same with

those who help with clothing, and even

toys.

In many instances, that meant that

nonprofits and those who work every

day to help folks who are struggling

had an even more difficult task. Dona-

tions, supplies and funds that, in other

years, went to fill traditional annual

needs instead went to the storm vic-

tims. Theres no doubt that even more

generosity was needed this year than

in most just to get by.

Over the past few weeks, we have

had the pleasure of publishing stories

about efforts to lend a hand. Indeed,

many of these efforts were to help

those impacted by the storm. But, like

always, there were the usual Toys for

Tot drives and more. We dont keep a

formal count of the number of holiday

fundraising event stories we publish

from year to year, but it certainly

seemed that, in 2012, there were many

more than in years past.

So, we thank those individuals and

groups who organized these efforts.

And, on behalf of them, we also thank

everyone who picked up an extra can

of non-perishable food, an additional

bag of dog food, one more toy and

more. To all of those who reached a lit-

tle deeper into their wallets this year to

help out, your generosity truly made a

difference.

We wish everyone a happy holiday

season and hope for a hurricane-free

2013.

in our opinion

Happy holidays!A thank you to everyone who helped to brighten the season for those in need

Stepping up

Hurricane Sandy created an evengreater need for toys, food, clothingand more this holiday season. Judgingfrom the number of donation effortswe saw, local communities really camethrough for those in need.

Writer: Alimony Reformneeds restrictions

I am listening to the current debates on

Entitlement Reform and need to discussanother form of Entitlement Reform Al-imony Reform.

Permanent Alimony is a form of entitle-ment. Its abuse is more rampant than wel-fare and restrictions must be placed on it.

Currently, judges have full discretion todole out permanent alimony.

Those fighting alimony reform like topaint a picture of woman gives up career,married 20 years as the rare instance

where permanent alimony is awarded andthis is a gender issue. Not true.There's no rhyme or reason or restraint

for judges pulling this emergency chordand its high time they have one. Thereneed to be guidelines. New Jersey is one of

the few states that have this judicially ad-ministered entitlement program, and itmust be reformed now. Permanent alimo-ny is based on puritanical, punitive valuestotally out of touch with modern societal

norms.Theres a bill in judicial committee inour state Senate for a blue ribbon panel tolook at this inequity in the law. It needs tobe debated and passed now.

forti noted how this procedure isbecoming more prevalentthroughout the state, which is an-other benefit to adopting the ordi-nance.

The number of municipalitiesthat have put an ordinance likethis in place has increased dra-matically over the last couple of

years, he said. Its the only op-portunity to go in and make suresmoke alarms are in place andthe public is protected.

Nieman explained how thetownship consulted with Prince-ton Hill Apartments landlords,who were all on board with the or-dinance as well, since it wouldbenefit them in regard to secur-ing security deposits, giventheres a third party involved todocument things such as inspec-

tions.

Although the ordinance allowsthe township to enter the apart-ments after the properties havebeen re-rented, Nieman explainedwhat would happen if townshipofficials were to find somethingwrong.

If, in the course of that inspec-tion, there is something that isseen that would require interven-tion on behalf of the fire districtsor Code Enforcement Depart-ment, they could refer them, hesaid. It wouldnt be a violation,

just something like, Take a look,it might need a repair.

Nieman also noted that the ob-jective of the ordinance isnt topunish residents, but to keepthem safe.

Were protecting a segment ofour population which is least ableto protect itself those are thepeople that are working 12-hourdays, many of them ride their bi-cycles to work, and they dontoften times challenge their land-

lords, he said. And if this pro-

tects public safety and health, Ithink its a good idea.The Fire Prevention Depart-

ment that does the inspectionswill be charging a fee for the serv-ice, but would cover the costs ofthe inspection.

Theres a fee for the service,but youre getting a level of pub-lic safety and it was somethingthat we felt would maintain prop-erty values in those complexesand ensure public safety, makingsure places are maintained with

all proper safety devices function-ing, Nieman said.

This will protect some of ourmost vulnerable residents and itsa known, effective tool in multiplemunicipalities for early detectionof code violations so they can bepromptly corrected before it im-pacts the resident, MontgomeryTownship Health OfficerStephanie Carey said. Its an im-portant piece of local legisla-tion.

event.We didnt have an official

judge because it wouldve costthousands of dollars; we wentabout this the nonprofit route,he said. So, you have to providethe evidence yourself.

Wise detailed all of the require-ments necessary to successfullycomplete and set the record,which included video registra-tion of each participant, signed

testimonials from each partici-pant after the menorahs were lit,12 judges, more than 30 floor mon-itors, 90 table captains, and docu-menting photographs.

Obviously with the challengesof Guinness and following all oftheir guidelines, theres also thechallenges of working with firedepartment, he said.

Because Princeton Airport istechnically located in Mont-gomery Township, Wise had theMontgomery Township Fire De-

partment attend, which was an-other requirement, along withMontgomery EMS.

Once everyone settled in withtheir uniquely decorated meno-rahs in the hangar, Rabbi AdamFeldman from The Jewish Centerled the crowd in singing prayersin Hebrew as they lit the meno-rah using the shamash, the centercandle used to light the others.

The Schneiders, a Montgomeryfamily that attended the event,noted how it was nice to have anevent focused on Chanukah for achange.

There arent that many funChanukah events like this asthere are for Christmas, so Ithought it would be fun for them[children] to be a part of, motherMonica said.

Her son Jacob also added whyhe was so excited to be there.

I get to be a part of setting the

world record, he said.After the prayers were sung,

Feldman directed everyone to usetheir shamash to light all five can-

dles, which immediately lit up theentire hangar and ignited a senseof community.

The judges, who were in chargeof walking around their designat-ed section of tables to make sureevery menorah was being lit, con-sisted of a variety of people fromMercer County.

I wanted to hit different sec-tors business leaders, people inentertainment, Jewish leaders,rabbis, clergy, township officials,

Wise said. I wanted to really rep-resent the general community,not just one section.

One of the judges representingMontgomery, Mayor Ed Trzaska,congratulated The Jewish Centeron their accomplishment andstated how he truly enjoyed beingone of the judges.

I had to oversee several tablesand make sure the lightingprocess went smoothly, and it re-ally helped to be 6'8" so I could seeeverything and verify as a wit-

ness the accuracy of the worldrecord, he said. This was atremendous community eventand a memorable experience. Wewill be inviting the leaders andorganizers to an upcoming Town-ship Committee meeting to recog-nize and honor this accomplish-ment.

Trzaska was also thankful forthe Princeton Airport for makingthe event, which was coinedChanukah for the Record, pos-sible since no other venues in oraround the area were willing tohost the event, which was one ofthe biggest challenges.

The locations are really chal-lenging, Wise said. The pro-gram was too large for our facili-ty; no hotel wanted to host us be-cause of the amount of candles;Market Fair and the Quaker-bridge Mall loved the idea, butwhen you got to the candles, they

[declined] and Princeton Univer-sity said no as well. We were ableto connect with the airport andthe owner was extremely excited,

and within a minute of talking,he said, Lets do it.

Although Wise announced that

we did it at the event when hestated 834 menorahs were presentin the hangar, he described howhe has to submit all of the infor-

mation to Guinness WorldRecords office in New York Citythe day after, Dec. 12, to officially

find out.Three days after the event, we

will officially know, he said.For more information about

Van Harlingen Historical So-

ciety of Montgomery (VHHS) ispleased to make several impor-tant announcements.

The Society has been granted$8,000 in matching funds by the1772 Foundation Grant Program,administered by the New JerseyHistoric Trust. The funds will beused to replace the cedar shakeroof at the historic Dirck GulickHouse on Route 601 in the BelleMead section of MontgomeryTownship. The roof will be in

keeping with that of an 18th cen-tury Dutch farmhouse, which in-deed was the original use of thestone structure listed on the Na-tional Register of HistoricPlaces.

The Gulick House was built in1752 and serves now as the soci-ety's headquarters, library,archives and research facility.The library is open from 10 a.m.until noon on the last Saturday

of each month (except in Decem-

ber, January and February), byappointment and for special oc-casions. For more informationand to verify the library is notclosed due to unforeseen circum-stances, contact [email protected].

Also, VHHS hosts preserva-tion consultant Kathleen Galop,who will discuss JacquelineKennedy's Historic PreservationLegacy on Tuesday, Jan. 15 at 7p.m. at Mary Jacobs Library,

which is located at 64 Washing-ton Street in Rocky Hill. Pre-reg-istration is required by calling(609) 924-7073 or by visitingsomerset.lib.nj.us/maryjacobs.htm.

The Historic Preservation Actwas enacted in 1966, and greatstrides in historic preservationhave occurred since then. How-ever, little has been written ortold about the instrumental role

played by Jacqueline Kennedy in

creating the climate for the pas-sage of that important legisla-tion. This program presents aninteresting look behind thescenes of how "Jackie" stoppedthe bulldozers and set the coursefor historic preservation. Thepresentation is funded by theHorizons Speaker Bureau of theNJ Council for the Humanities, astate partner of the National En-dowment for the Humanities.

Lastly, the society is selling

keepsake 2013 calendars with ex-cellent vintage images of the vil-lage of Blawenburg, includingthe historic church, generalstore, and people and scenesfrom the turn of the 20th centu-ry. For information about whereto buy a calendar locally (for $25)or to have one shipped, [email protected].
