We went to say our final goodbye. Some of us went Friday, others Saturday, and some even waited until her final moments on Monday morning. We sat with her. We held her hand in those final hours. We tried to stay strong, but she could see the despair in our eyes. Some wept openly. She was mostly quiet. She seemed […]
A lot has changed about Long Beach Island in the last 19 years. In 2007, the average sale price of a home was still under $1 million, with a few original beach cottages for half that.

It was a huge milestone […]

“Welcome in!” What? Did you just say, “Welcome in”? I went into three local businesses in one day last week, all completely different in nature, and I heard it three different times. This wasn’t the first time I’ve heard it. It seems that in the past few months it has become some kind of rule that a business addresses everyone […]

Local educators are giving the state’s new bell-to-bell cellphone policy high marks after the first marking period came to an end last week, saying the rule seems to be having a positive impact so far at all levels of education.
