Mayor Michael Nutter (photo) said publicly the increase would not make a \”material difference.\”

But Ken Foster, owner of Foster’s Homeware in Old City, said the increase was \”another slap in the face\” for businesses weathering the recession. Business this year has been \”soft,\” Foster said. In 14 years, he’s \”never seen it this bad.\”

On Thursday, shoppers in his store took notice of the increased tax.

\”Virtually every customer today has commented on it. The city customer is concerned about it, but I’m also concerned that suburban customers will think twice about coming in,\” Foster said. \”It’s definitely the talk.\”

I want to start by telling you that he is a wonderful husband and father to our two girls. I’m sure you have seen this and heard it many times before. I just needed to say it again. He works very hard to support our family. I feel very lucky to have found someone like Wil to share my life with. You can be sure that if he is elected in November you will have someone that is dedicated to and has the best intentions for the people of Gloucester City.

He is an Independent and will be an Independent voice on City Council. I always thought he would some day run for a public office as he is very good with speaking to people and listening to what they have to say. I think many people in our community want their voices to be heard and to be informed of what is going on in our government.

We bought our house on Baynes Avenue nine years ago after we were married and wanted to start a family. We both love this city. Wil and his family are from Gloucester City. I am not originally from here but have always felt very accepted, as if this were my home town too. Both of our girls go to Cold Springs School and I am the treasurer for their PTO.

I can assure you that if my husband is elected he will do his very best to represent all of the citizens of Gloucester City. I think it is important that every resident have the right to know what is happening in their community and have a watchdog on City Council to be there voice.

I hope that you give Wil a chance to show you what he can do for the people of Gloucester City by voting for him on November 3rd.

Sincerely,

Gina Levins, Gloucester City

Eighth-ranked TCNJ is 6-3 overall and 2-1 in the NJAC, while the 14th-ranked Profs remained unbeaten in conference play at 3-0 and are 7-4 overall.

With time winding down in the first overtime, Conner gave the Profs a win on the penalty stroke putting a low shot into the far corner of the net.

TCNJ set up overtime as freshman Caitlyn Jenkins (Mickleton, NJ/Kingsway) deflected in a shot off of the stick of junior Kellyn Riley (Cherry Hill, NJ/Cherry Hill West) with 4:35 left in regulation.

In the first half, the Profs got off the early lead as junior Lauren Ross (Gloucester City, NJ/Gloucester) knocked in a feed from Jenna Lombardo (Barnegat, NJ/Southern Regional). That goal came 7:40 into the game.

1. Get him a cushion and retire him to the corner of the living room and give up on teaching him anything OR
2. Get him a trainer who is willing to work with an older dog and make him the best dog he can be!

Many times an older dog is capable of an unlimited amount of new behaviors, from sitting up, to polite, on-leash walking, to opening the refrigerator to fetch you a cold one after a hard day’s work! All it takes is a little patience and lots of praise.
