New Jersey Lottery 50th Anniversary Celebration Year

– $42 Billion in Prizes Awarded to its Players since 1970 –

– Innovative New Games & Chances to play in 2020 –

TRENTON (Jan. 8, 2020)

– The New Jersey Lottery, one of the largest lotteries and the third oldest in the United States, is excited to celebrate 50 years of fun-filled gaming with a year-long celebration

that includes the introduction of new games and producing on-going fun and entertainment for players, with continued commitment to responsible gaming while providing financial support to the state

.

“Fifty years ago, New Jersey voters took a chance and approved a state Lottery, which turned out to be a winner. The original hope was that the lottery would generate $12 million in profit annually. Last year, the New Jersey Lottery contributed over a billion dollars to the state,” said James A. Carey, Acting Executive Director of the New Jersey Lottery.

Launched in 1969, the lottery was born with the goal of raising funds to support education and state-run institutions. Today the New Jersey Lottery is committed to providing revenue-generating entertainment products to help protect the retirement benefits of those who serve our community, including New Jersey’s teachers, police officers, firefighters, and other public employees.

“We have so many reasons to celebrate fifty years of success. Since 1970, the New Jersey Lottery has produced over $28 billion in revenue for the state and $42 billion in prizes for our players – making over 2,000 millionaires in the process. I can’t wait to meet the next group of winners at our kickoff events,” said Carey.

THE KICK-OFF EVENTS

The year-long celebration will kick off with two events open to consumers where $50,000 in various prizes will be available to attendees 18 and over, and some (literally) “up for grabs” with the premier of the New Jersey Lottery CA$HNADO, an interactive, prize -grabbing, everybody-is-watching experience.

5 Free Address Lookup Service Online

(Gloucestercitynews.net)(January 9, 2020)–When you want to find someone or details about an individual, you can use their address to know who they are. The challenge, however, that most people face is finding the right service

to use because there are different options to use.

That is why today, our article focuses on helping you know the best address search sites on the internet. We are going to list five of them. Stay tuned.

Zosearch

At the top of our list is

Zosearch

, which is an address search tool, amongst other things, delivers what it promises. It has more than one million users, and something you will like about it is that it has numerous recognitions from sites such as TechRadar, Forbes, Pc mage, and many other high authority sites.

Getting the report is easy. Since it is

a free address lookup site

, Zosearch ensures that you have the report within a minute or so. You do not pay anything to get the full report or do searches. Every search is free, and you can do as many searches as you want.

Besides that, Zosearch has an active customer support team. In the case of problems, they are available to help you.

PeopleFinders

If you are looking for great insights within your reports, then you should use this site. The

report, which is what you require most, is easy to use. Meaning, you will not have any problems analyzing them and finding essential data from them.

Nevertheless, the report does not feature a person’s social media detail, which is not that much of a problem since you can use the Zosearch site for this purpose.

The only negative thing about this site is that you have to pay 25 dollars to use the site. No one who likes free stuff may enjoy the service, nevertheless.

US Search

Just like People finders, this is useful for people who want to invest in an address search tool. Though it is a cheaper option, this one offers all its services at different prices. So instead of a onetime subscription fee, this one will charge depending on the type of information you

want from the report.

For instance, if you want a basic report, then you pay three dollars. For extra information such as marital status, you will need to spend about forty dollars.

On the positive, this site is easy to use, and the information present on these reports is up-to-date. Therefore, there is less likelihood of getting the wrong data.

Instant checkmate

If you want to know more about the owner of a home using their address, then you need to subscribe to their services. The address search option is suitable for people with a budget since their subscription is as low as 40 dollars in a month.

People who search regularly should use this site. The reports are updated, and they contain in-depth information about an individual. Instant checkmate warns you about the details, and if you want to download the report, you will need to pay more to get it.

Been Verified

Other than using a person’s address to locate them, this website also allows you to use their phone number, name, or email address. The site is easy to use, and finding your way while using the tool should not be a challenge.

Reports contain all the information you require. However, the catch 22 situation here is that you have to pay a subscription to get critical details, such as criminal records. Otherwise, when you create an account, you can get the individual’s basic information without incurring any charges.

Final remarks

Now it is up to you to pick out of these five. All these options are viable, and you can depend on them for accurate reports.

When choosing the site to use, be sure that you put your priorities right. For instance, if you do not use the address search tool frequently, then using a free site like Zosearch should be the way to go. Furthermore, the site provides all the details you require in the report.

Nevertheless, if you have to pay for a subscription, then PeopleFinders can be a great option since the reports are self-explanatory, and the subscription is affordable to anyone.

Ramapo men outlast Raptors in double-overtime thriller

CAMDEN, N.J

. (

Jan.

, 2020

) –

The Rutgers University-Camden and Ramapo College gave fans plenty of basketball for their money here Wednesday night in a New Jersey Athletic Conference marathon. After

10

lead changes, four ties and two overtime periods, however, the Roadrunners edged the Scarlet Raptors, 77-74.

In a game that fell one overtime shy of tying the Rutgers-Camden program record for the longest game, which h

as h

appened three times, the Raptors dropped to 4-8 overall and 1-5 in the NJAC with their third straight loss. Two of them have come this week, against traditionally strong teams in Ramapo and Gwynedd Mercy, by a combined margin of eight points.

Ramapo

improves to 6-7 overall and 2-4 in the NJAC with its second straight win. The Roadrunners have won their last nine games

against Rutgers-Camden and lead

the all-time series, 52

-15.

Both teams appeared to have the game in hand at various points, as the Roadrunners surged t

o

an early 11-point lead (26-15) before the Scarlet Raptors stormed back to build a 37-31 lead right before halftime. Rutgers-Camden led at the break, 37-33.

Rutgers-Camden led by six points, 49-43, before Ramapo went on an eight-point ran to take a 51-49 advantage and start a sequence where the teams swapped the lead on eight consecutive possessions. The Scarlet Raptors led by five points, 69-64, with 2:31 remaining in the game after senior forward

Isaac Destin

made a pair of foul shots. Ramapo, however, came back to tie the game on a trey by sophomore guard Jason Battle and a jumper by senior guard Rob McWilliams, sending the game into overtime tied at 69-69.

In an overtime period where each team scored only one field goal, the Raptors took a 71-69 lead on a jumper by junior guard

Arian Azemi

midway through the five-minute period. Ramapo tied the game at 71-71 on a layup by McWilliams with 23 seconds remaining, pushing matters into the second overtime session.

The Roadrunners took the lead for good on a layup by senior forward Jordan Zagadou with 2:24 left in the second overtime period and padded their margin to four points, 75-71, on a jumper by McWilliams. A trey by Azemi cut the gap to 75-74 down the stretch before Battle closed out the Ramapo win with a pair of foul shots. The Raptors missed a last-moment attempt at a game-tying trey.

McWilliams notched 25 points to pace the Roadrunners and tie for game-high honors, while Battle canned 12, junior guard Marquise Kindel netted 11 and senior guard Connor Romano added nine.

Senior forward Jordan Zagadou had a team-leading eight rebounds, helping the Roadrunners hold a 39-34 edge off the boards.

Destin, who notched his 1,000th career point Monday night at Gwynedd Mercy, had a huge game for the Scarlet Raptors, scoring 25 points and completing a double-double with 13 rebounds. Azemi notched 19 points, sophomore forward

Jake Petrik

netted 12 and sophomore guard

Keysean Simmons

added 10.

Azemi also collected game highs of six assists and five steals.

Ramapo shot 30-for-59 (50.8 percent) from the floor, while Rutgers-Camden went 28-for-63 (44.4). Both teams made 18 turnovers and the

Roadrunners went 10-for-21 (47.6) from the foul line, while the Scarlet Raptors were 8-for-11 (72.7).

Rutgers-Camden

plays another NJAC home game on Saturday when it faces Rutgers-Newark at 3 p.m.

New Jersey Department of Health Continues Efforts to Combat Overdose Epidemic

The Department of Health continues to implement initiatives to help reverse the tide of the opioid epidemic in the state.

“Eight lives are lost each day to the overdose epidemic in New Jersey,” said Acting Health Commissioner Judith M. Persichilli. “We are committed to linking all those in need to treatment and services by engaging healthcare providers, harm reduction centers, local health officials and emergency care providers in the fight to save lives.”

The Department of Health is expanding its

“5 Minutes to Help”

training course for Emergency Medical Services staff to improve connections to care for non-fatal overdose victims. This program has already trained 75 first responders so they can effectively provide patients with information on recovery resources.   Last week, the Department launched an online introduction course for EMS and law enforcement partners and will hold several in person trainings this year. First responders are on the front lines of this public health challenge, saving lives and serving as the first link to treatment and services. In 2019, EMS administered nearly 10,000 doses of naloxone.

The Department is also increasing access to naloxone.  The Department’s Naloxone Standing Orders program allow pharmacists to dispense the opioid antidote without a prescription. In 2019, there was a 63 percent increase in participating pharmacists and a 30 percent increase in pharmacies.

To reduce dependence on opioids, the Department is working with hospital care providers to decrease opioid prescribing to treat chronic pain in emergency departments. Through the Opioid Reduction Option (ORO) program, 11 hospitals have enrolled in training. St. Joseph’s Regional Medical Center, which serves as a Gold Technical Partner, is sharing its best practices that have received national recognition in reducing opioid prescriptions in their emergency department. In 2019, 165 emergency department personnel were trained.  This year, the Department, and its partner, the New Jersey Hospital Association, will hold another round of training to engage more hospitals in this effort. The goal of the ORO program is to ultimately reduce overall opioid prescribing in NJ’s emergency departments to 12 percent or less.

New Jersey’s seven Harm Reduction Centers continue to play a critical role in addressing the overdose epidemic. The Department is expanding services at these centers to support the health of individuals in active use.  In addition to access to new syringes, overdose prevention education, naloxone, and HIV and Hepatitis C testing, center staff provide outreach, counseling and care coordination. In 2019, more than 3,100 residents were served at these centers located in Asbury Park, Atlantic City, Camden, Jersey City, Newark, Paterson and Trenton.

The Department will continue to improve data collection and analysis to better understand the status of the epidemic and employ better informed strategies for prevention of use, and reduction of deaths and recidivism.  In 2019, the

NJ Overdose Data Dashboard

added data on viral hepatitis and neonatal abstinence syndrome. The dashboard provides statistics on overdose deaths, crime, naloxone administration, prescription monitoring, drug related hospital visits, and other important data to understand the population health impacts of the epidemic.

To help further facilitate data exchange, the Department is supporting efforts by behavioral health providers to implement electronic health records and connection to other health care providers through the New Jersey Health Information Network (NJHIN). Historically, substance use disorder providers have not had access to the resources they needed to maintain modern health record systems, and this technology gap has limited their access to timely health information.  More than 120 providers are interested in participating and 50 have signed contracts with vendors to begin the process of moving to or upgrading their electronic health records systems.

The Department is also focused on addressing the overdose epidemic through a health equity lens.  The growing impact on communities of color and geographic disparities will be covered in a series of health equity forums this Spring, which will culminate in the Fall Population Health summit.

The Department’s work is being supported by both state and federal funding.

Camden County GOP Endorses Gustafson In CD1

Ambrosino awards Gustafson the line

HADDON HEIGHTS – Camden County Republican Chairman Rich Ambrosino awarded the county line to congressional candidate Claire Gustafson in CD1 today.

“Earlier this week Josh Duvall announced he ‘decided to drop out of the race’ in CD1,” Rich Ambrosino said. “While I wish his exit was more graceful this does mean there is no longer a reason to screen candidates in CD1 and avoids what could have been a costly primary.”

“I am happy to endorse Claire Gustafson for Congress in CD1.” Ambrosino continued, “Claire is the ultimate team player. She’s provided financial support to the party and our candidates. She has repeatedly stepped up for our party, she’s held local office, serves as the municipal chair in Collingswood and chairs Camden County’s Republican women organization. She’s fought the tough fights and knows what it takes to challenge South Jersey’s political machine and has a network in place to build a winning campaign organization.”

“Claire has left no doubt as to her support of President Trump or her conservative beliefs,” Ambrosino said. “The contrast between Donald Norcross and Claire Gustafson is crystal clear. I’m proud to have a candidate of Claire Gustafson’s caliber as our nominee and look forward to a spirited congressional campaign.”

H. Mike Reed, of Gloucester City, age 66

Home is where your treasure is. There, your heart is also. Harry “Mike” Reed spent his entire life in Gloucester City, in fact… the same house. From home he emphatically cheered on the Ohio State Buckeyes, The Philadelphia Phillies and Eagles.

A single thread is weak but many threads woven together make a strong fabric. Over the years Mike had fought hard. Pain is like a heavy stone. It’s just too much to carry alone. The strength woven into the tapestry of his family allowed Mike to grow in grace and in age. He was a great guy, brother and true friend.

On Thursday January 2, 2020 Mike’s circle of days ended just as they had begun. At home, in Gloucester, surrounded by his family at the age of 66.

Mike had worked for the Gloucester City Department of Public Works for his entire career. He had been a member of the Sportsmen Athletic Club and played in the American Legion Shuffle Bowl.

Mike will never be too far gone for a memory. He is survived by his sisters Diane & her husband Glenn Thomas and Denise & her husband Jack Barron. He is also survived and will be sadly missed by his nieces & nephews; Glenn & his wife Stacy Thomas, Harry & his wife Christine Thomas, Shannon & her husband Adam Carpenter, Brooke Barron and Katie & her husband Tim Miller as well as his many great nieces and nephews.

Relatives and friends, neighbors, Sportsmen AC members and the shuffle bowl league are invited to join the Reed family and yell OH—-I–O, OH—I–O! We’ll be sharing our heartfelt memories and gossiping about the Phillies, Eagles… and the Boston Bruins on Thursday morning, January 2, 2020, between 9:00 am and 11:00 am at Creran Celebration Etherington & Creran Funeral Homes 700 Powell St. Gloucester City where a funeral ceremony will begin at 11:00 am. As an expression of sympathy and in lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to Heartland Hospice 1385 Chews Landing Rd. Laurel Springs, NJ 08021
