2 amazing films at the New Jersey Film Festival today!

[ad_1]


By Al Nigrin

originally published: 02/07/2025

God Teeth  screens with the short The Traumatist at the Spring 2025 New Jersey Film Festival on Friday, February 7.  The film will be Online for 24 Hours and In-Person at 7 PM in Voorhees Hall #105/Rutgers University, 71 Hamilton Street, New Brunswick, NJ.  Tickets are available for purchase here.

The Traumatist – Michelle Beck (Brooklyn, New York) In this psychological thriller, Avery Vaughn, played by Amelia Workman (Anita Tucker, A Thousand and One), searches for retribution and release from her childhood traumas. She enlists the help of Dr. Theodore Hubbell, a questionable character with an unorthodox method of trauma therapy. The “Immersive Retribution Trauma Therapy” program, or IRTT, provides a cathartic release through vengeful and violent reenactments. Starring the talented Robert Picardo (The Doctor, Star Trek Voyager) as Dr. Hubbell, this stirring piece of fiction is told with suspense, passion, and humor. See how one person’s trauma can last generations and the lengths someone will go to make their oppressor pay. 2024; 15 min.

God Teeth – Robbie C. Williamson (Puntaneras, Costa Rica) God Teeth is a wildly original and fantastical odyssey about four recently deceased souls who find themselves on an abandoned ship at sea. Part confessional, part elegy, the narrators must recount the circumstances which led to their untimely deaths, before a marauding gang of sting rays destroys their memories, banishing them to an eternity in purgatory. Created entirely from found internet footage, God Teeth offers the viewer a new and profound experience culled from the infinite digital world and turns it into a thought provoking, cinematic song of mourning and acceptance – The glory of life and death. Boom, a 10-year-old swimmer endeavors to make sense of the loss of her father in a world of dragons, magical sea creatures and underwater superheroes, but will she be destined to repeat history? Albert, leather clad and speeding through a tunnel, flashes back to his life wandering the streets of Hong Kong in search of desire and connection, but with an increasing sense of unease and isolation, he must finally confess to a long-held and shameful secret. Rose, an ambitious sports agent is on the cusp of experiencing a career defining moment, when out of the blue, she takes a bold left turn – with horrific and unintended consequences. Devoted family man, Campbell, speaks only in third person as he reluctantly recalls a raging forest fire that would forever change his existence, leaving him stuck atop a thousand-foot pole. 2024; 60 min.

The 43rd Bi-Annual New Jersey Film Festival will be taking place on select Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays between January 24-March 2, 2025. The Festival will be a hybrid one as it will be presented online as well as doing in-person screenings at Rutgers University. All the films will be available virtually via Video on Demand for 24 hours on their show date. VoD start times are at 12 Midnight Eastern USA. Each General Admission Ticket or Festival Pass purchased is good for both the virtual and the in-person screenings. Plus, acclaimed singer-songwriter Renee Maskin will be doing an audio-visual concert on Friday, February 21 at 7PM and there will be a special benefit in-person screening of the film Bucha on March 2 at 5PM! The in-person screenings and the Renee Maskin concert will be held in Voorhees Hall #105/Rutgers University, 71 Hamilton Street, New Brunswick, NJ beginning at 5PM or 7PM on their show date. General Admission Ticket=$15 Per Program; Festival All Access Pass=$120; Bucha Benefit Screening=$20; In-Person Only Student Ticket=$10 Per Program.

Math prof dives into mapping the movements of sea creatures with new NSF grant

Nick Battista

As a kid, Nick Battista wasn’t much of a swimmer.

Growing up outside of Buffalo, New York, he loved going to the aquarium and admiring his grandmother’s fish tanks, but on trips to the beach, a fear of sharks kept him from venturing into the water.

That changed during the last year of his PhD in mathematics where he studied the fluid dynamics at play in the development of the human heart. His adviser encouraged him to join her in taking up scuba diving so they could draw inspiration from nature and study how fluid dynamics affected other animals.

Battista is now an associate professor of mathematics at TCNJ, and he visits the Florida Keys twice a year to dive with his research collaborators, including his former advisor. There’s now even more diving in their future, as Battista has secured a collaborative research grant from the National Science Foundation to develop new computational methods to understand predator-prey interactions underwater.

The three-year, $124,000 grant will fund field studies and quantitative analysis of how cnidarians (a branch of the animal kingdom that includes jellyfish and coral) are affected by fluid dynamics in their attempts to capture the plankton they eat — and how those interactions look from the prey’s perspective.

“We’re still learning things from animals all the time”, Battista says. “Imagine a jellyfish expanding and contracting to swim. It seems like a relatively simple process, but there’s some really interesting physics going on.”

Using a combination of calculus, geometry, differential equations, and machine learning — and the biological validation offered by observing sea creatures in their natural habitats — Battista and his colleagues will seek to understand how animals maneuver through water to achieve their goals, whether that means capture or escape.

He plans to work with undergraduates from TCNJ’s School of Science and the School of Engineering on some of the mathematical modeling that undergirds this multidisciplinary research. And although the grant emphasizes the study of aquatic life, it will also support the development of new mathematical approaches that could expand into other arenas, just as Battista’s study of cardiovascular dynamics eventually led him to the sea.

“A beautiful thing about math,” he says, “is that the same methods we’re creating to study how animals swim and interact can be used for completely different applications in engineering or medicine, too.”

Accreditation Logo 

Accreditation

Accreditation is a progressive and time-proven method of assisting law enforcement agencies in improving their overall performance. Participating agencies conduct a thorough self-analysis to determine how existing operations can be adapted to meet these standards and objectives. When the procedures are in place, a team of trained, independent assessors verifies that the applicable standards have been successfully implemented.

Accredited status represents a significant professional achievement. Accreditation acknowledges the implementation of policies and procedures that are conceptually sound and operationally effective. The Cherry Hill Police Department underwent this extensive process and successfully achieved accreditation status in March 2024.  

The attitudes, training and actions of the Cherry Hill Police Department best reflect compliance with the standards contained in this program. Policy and procedure based on Accreditation will not insure mistake-free policing or a crime-free environment for citizens. However, comprehensive and effective leadership through professionally based policy development is directly influenced by this law enforcement program that is thorough, complete, and based on standards that reflect professional best practices.

Women’s National Football Conference (WNFC), Jersey Shore Wave gears up for season kickoff

[ad_1]

The newest franchise in the Women’s National Football Conference (WNFC), Jersey Shore Wave, is getting ready to kick off its first season on March 29 against the Chicago Winds with tickets on sale via the team’s website.

Team owner and WNFC Board Member Dawn Sherman says she is thrilled to not only grow the game of women’s football but also to increase women’s representation in sports overall, promoting greater equality.

“Having lived in New Jersey for many years, it is an honor to be the owner of the newest addition to the Women’s National Football Conference,” Sherman said. “It is a personal ambition of mine to drive equity for women broadly. Owning a professional women’s tackle football team gives me the opportunity to shine a spotlight on the important role of women in sports and to address the critical issue of the pay gap for women who compete and give their all just like men. General awareness, recognition, game attendance and pay all continue to lag behind sports played by men. It is time for all of this to change.”

Jersey Shore Wave will play its inaugural season at the historic Hinchliffe Stadium in Paterson, New Jersey. The nearly 100-year-old, newly renovated stadium was home to baseball’s Negro League in the 1930s and 40s. Hinchliffe now takes another momentous step, in hosting the Jersey Shore Wave.

“We are thrilled to host the Jersey Shore Wave in its inaugural season here at Hinchliffe Stadium. Hinchliffe has always been at the forefront of progress, and our partnership with the Wave will add to the storied history of Hinchliffe Stadium,” Bryan Verhasselt, general manager at the Hinchliffe Property District.

Paterson Mayor Andre Sayegh celebrates the Wave’s move to play at Hinchliffe Stadium as an impactful way to show the community’s support for athletic excellence in female sports. “I am elated to welcome the Jersey Shore Wave to Paterson for their inaugural season,” Sayegh said. “This partnership represents more than just a game; it celebrates progress, equality and opportunity. Supporting women athletes is crucial to showcase their talent and determination and to inspire the youth of Paterson to dream big and see what’s possible.”

“At present, players in the WNFC are not paid. One of our primary goals is to pay our players a living wage. Everyone involved from players to owners, and everyone in between, believes in the potential of this league and is committed to putting in time and effort to grow the game until our goal becomes a reality,” Jersey Shore Wave President Jared Ferko said.

Morris County Hosts Project Homeless Connect – Morris County, NJ

Morris County Hosts Project Homeless Connect – Morris County, NJ

[ad_1]

Published on January 31, 2025

Annual Event Provided Critical Resources and Outreach to Those in Need

01 31 2025 Project Homeless Connect (1).jpg

Morris County hosted its annual Project Homeless Connect event today at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church in Morristown, bringing together more than 40 community-based organizations to provide essential services and support to individuals experiencing homelessness or at risk of losing their housing.

The event, organized by the Mental Health Association of Essex & Morris Inc. (MHA) in partnership with the county, offered free healthcare screenings, vaccinations, haircuts, clothing, food, personal care items and housing assistance. Mobile service units, including the Morris County Office of Temporary Assistance’s (OTA) Navigating Hope and the Morris County Sheriff’s Office Hope One, were also on-site to provide additional resources.

Commissioner Director Tayfun Selen and Sheriff James Gannon joined county and community leaders to emphasize the importance of working together to address homelessness.

“Rising costs continue to place financial strain on families, making events like Project Homeless Connect more important than ever,” said Director Selen. “Morris County remains committed to finding real solutions, from expanding emergency assistance to increasing prevention efforts, because no one should have to face homelessness alone.”

Morris County took significant steps in 2024 to address homelessness by allocating an additional $300,000 in the county budget, which included doubling emergency assistance funds to $300,000 and dedicating $150,000 to prevention programs. The county also directed $100,000 in federal funding to three agencies for homelessness prevention and secured $190,000 in state funding for Code Blue activation — double the usual allocation — by demonstrating both need and efficient fund distribution.

In addition, the county’s OTA services expanded, with staff now stationed at the Morris County Library every Wednesday to assist residents in need.

“Morris County’s network of services and partnerships, including the MHA and the county’s Human Services Department as critical partners, is truly remarkable. When I became Sheriff in 2017, we saw the urgent need to address homelessness, mental health and addiction. At that time, our community leaders and experts came together at CARES in Rockaway Borough and we recognized the importance of bringing services directly to those in need. That’s how Hope One was born, and eight years later, we remain committed to that mission,” said Sheriff Gannon.

“It’s wonderful to be at St. Peter’s Church this morning, where mercy and compassion prevail — not just through the church, but through the community-based nonprofits, the individuals we serve and the support of Morris County and its elected officials. Together, we ensure mercy and compassion prevail,” said Robert Davison, CEO of MHA.

The event coincided with the annual Point-in-Time Count, a federally mandated survey assessing homelessness in the county. Last year’s count identified 680 individuals experiencing homelessness in Morris County, a 32% increase from the previous year. While some of the increase may be due to improved data collection, it underscores the growing need for coordinated solutions.

During the event, two men shared their journeys of recovery and how Morris County’s services helped them rebuild their lives. Both, once homeless, now live in stable housing and continue to find hope through ongoing support from the providers who assisted them.

Since its launch in 2006, Project Homeless Connect has evolved into a year-round initiative, bringing essential services directly to local drop-in centers in Dover and Morristown.

“Homelessness is a challenge we must address together as a community,” said Director Selen. “Morris County will continue to work with our partners to provide resources, expand services and create opportunities for long-term stability.”

Devils’ Dawson Mercer Set to Play in His 300th NHL Game – The Hockey Writers – New Jersey Devils

[ad_1]

The New Jersey Devils just had a player celebrating an exciting milestone, with Tomas Tatar playing in his 900th NHL game on Jan. 29. As the team gets ready to take on the Buffalo Sabres at KeyBank Center on Feb. 2, Dawson Mercer is getting ready to skate in his 300th NHL game.

Mercer has spent his entire NHL career with the Devils so far. As a part of the 2020 Taylor Hall trade with the Arizona Coyotes, the Devils received an 18th overall draft pick. They selected Mercer with that pick in the 2020 NHL Draft.

In his previous three seasons with the Devils, Mercer played in all 82 games. He has earned a total of 131 points, via 64 goals and 67 assists. His performance over these three seasons proved to be a valuable asset to the team, so Mercer signed a three-year contract right before the 2024-25 season started. The contract has an average annual value (AAV) of $4 million.

Mercer has played in all 53 games so far this season, scoring 13 goals and earning 11 assists for a total of 24 points. His 24 points have earned him a spot in the Devils’ top ten point totals, in the seventh slot. Mercer is one of four players who has recorded a shorthanded goal this season, sharing the honor with Brett Pesce, Jesper Bratt, and Nathan Bastian.

Mercer has shown that he deserves a spot on this team. He currently plays right wing alongside captain Nico Hischier on the second line. He averages 17:51 of total time on the ice, which shows he’s doing something right for his team.

Congratulations to Dawson Mercer on his 300th career NHL game!

Devils Place Nico Hischier on IR, Call Up Simon Nemec – The Hockey Writers – New Jersey Devils

[ad_1]

New Jersey Devils captain Nico Hischier sustained an upper-body injury against the Montreal Canadiens on Jan. 25. He was deemed week-to-week, but today the Devils shared an update on his status. They have placed him on injured reserve.

Hischier has been a solid force for the Devils this season. He has played in 51 games and earned 43 points via 24 goals and 19 assists. He plays center on the second line, averaging about 20 minutes of total ice time (TOI) this season.

Simon Nemec was also called up today from the Utica Comets, the Devils’ American Hockey League (AHL) team. Jonas Siegenthaler left the game in the first period on Feb. 4 against the Pittsburgh Penguins. He did not return and the rest of the defense stepped up to the plate. As fans await an update on Siegenthaler’s injury status, Nemec has been called up to play defense in his stead.

Nemec played in nine games for the Devils earlier this season, recording one point from one assist. For the Comets, he has played in 32 games and recorded 22 points via five goals and 17 assists.

Even though Hischier and Siegenthaler will be missing some time, the Devils only have two more games until a two-week break for the 4 Nations Face-Off. This will afford these two players the time and rest they need, without missing too many games.

The Devils are getting ready to take on the Vegas Golden Knights later this evening, Feb. 6.
