ArtHaus Weehawken Opens Summer Music

ArtHaus, located at 4700 Park Avenue in Weehawken, New Jersey, is now accepting sign-ups for its Summer Youth Music and Art Programs. These programs are for kids and teens between the ages of 8 and 18 and will take place from July 7 to August 29, 2025.

Classes run Monday through Friday, and each day goes from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. There are both full-day and half-day options, so families can choose what works best. The program takes place right at ArtHaus, which is Hudson County’s newest center for young artists and musicians.

ArtHaus was started by Frank Jackson, a nonprofit leader who has been running art and music programs for over 20 years. He has worked with communities across New York City and now brings that experience to Hudson County.

Key Takeaways
  • ArtHaus’s Summer Program runs July 7 – August 29, Monday–Friday, 9 AM to 4 PM, offering full- and half-day sessions in music, DJ, production, and visual arts.
  • Students ages 8 to 18 can explore piano, guitar, DJing, music production, painting, collage, and photography, guided by professionals in small, supportive groups.
  • Early bird registration costs $699/week for full days, available until June 1, with flexible drop-in and half-day options also offered.

Program Schedule and Weekly Sessions

The summer program is made up of weekly sessions. Students can sign up for one week or several. Each week is a separate class, so it’s okay to join for just part of the summer.

The weekly sessions are:

  • July 7 – July 11
  • July 14 – July 18
  • July 21 – July 25
  • July 28 – August 1
  • August 4 – August 8
  • August 18 – August 22
  • August 25 – August 29

Program hours are:

  • Full day: 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM
  • Half day (morning): 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM
  • Half day (afternoon): 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM

Students will be placed in groups based on age:

  • Ages 8–12
  • Ages 13–17

Each group will have only 6 to 8 students, so the teachers can give each child personal attention.

Music and DJ Classes for All Skill Levels

ArtHaus offers several music programs that let students learn, practice, and create in fun and simple ways.

DJ Program

In the DJ program, students will learn how to use real DJ gear to mix music. They will learn how to spin, scratch, and blend songs, starting from basic skills and moving up to more advanced techniques.

Music Production

In music production, students will learn how to make their own songs. They will use industry standard software, such as Ableton Live and Logic Pro, and learn how to produce, mix, and master a track.

Music Lessons

Kids and teens can also choose music lessons in piano, guitar, voice, or music theory. These lessons focus on helping students learn how music works, how to read notes, and how to play with confidence.

Hands-On Visual Art for Young Creators

ArtHaus also offers a visual arts program that includes painting, collage, drawing, and photography.

Painting and Drawing

Students will work with materials like watercolors, charcoal, and pastels. They’ll learn how to use color, draw shapes, and plan their artwork with good composition and design.

Collage and Mixed Media

In this class, kids will combine paper, fabric, and found materials to make original art. This helps them think creatively and come up with their own style.

Photography

Photography students will learn how to use a camera, take better pictures, and edit their photos. They’ll learn to focus, frame shots, and use light.

At the end of the summer, ArtHaus will host a student art show. Everyone will get to display what they’ve made during the program.

Program Prices, How to Sign Up, and Who to Contact

ArtHaus offers several payment options so families can pick what works best.

Program Costs

  • Full-day weekly: $650
  • Half-day weekly: $425
  • Daily full-day drop-in: $150
  • Daily half-day drop-in: $90

Early Bird Discount

Families who register before June 1, 2025, can get the early bird rate of $699 per week (plus tax) for full-day programs in music and DJ.

How to Register

  • Student’s full name
  • Age and contact information

  • Weeks selected for enrollment
  • Any disabilities or medical needs

ArtHaus All Year Long

Even after summer ends, ArtHaus will keep offering programs. Starting in September 2025, ArtHaus will offer private and small group lessons during the school year. These classes will be for beginners and advanced students in music, DJ, and visual art.

ArtHaus also hosts art shows, weekend classes, and creative writing workshops. The ArtHaus Gallery features art by both local and international artists. All of this happens at the same Weehawken location.

Yankees Injuries Update: Jazz Chisholm Close to Return, Cruz and Gil Progressing

Yankees Injuries

The New York Yankees are winning games, holding first place in the American League East with a 32-20 record. They are six games ahead of the Tampa Bay Rays and have the second-best record in the American League. Even though the team is winning, they’ve been dealing with injuries to several key players.

Before Monday night’s game against the Angels in Anaheim, Yankees manager Aaron Boone shared the latest on nine players on the injured list. General Manager Brian Cashman also provided updates during a radio interview. Here is the full report on each player’s injury and recovery progress.

Key Takeaways
  • Jazz Chisholm is expected to return in the first week of June after recovering from a high-grade oblique strain with three muscle tears.
  • Luis Gil is set to resume mound work this week, targeting a July return after missing over 50 games due to a right lat strain.
  • Fernando Cruz may rejoin the bullpen next week, pending a successful bullpen session and possible live batting practice in Anaheim.

Jazz Chisholm Jr. — Right Oblique Injury with Three Muscle Tears

Position: Second Base
Injury: High-grade strain of the right oblique with three individual muscle tears
Injured List Status: 10-day IL since May 2 (retroactive to April 30)
Missed Games: 23
Current Status: Beginning full baseball activity
Expected Return: First full week of June

On April 29, Chisholm exited a game against the Baltimore Orioles with what was initially reported as “right flank discomfort.” Postgame, Chisholm told reporters, “I feel fine.” However, an MRI later revealed three distinct tears in his right oblique muscle. The injury was classified as a high-grade strain.

Chisholm is under a one-year, $5.85 million contract and has played 30 games in 2025. In those games, he batted .181 with a .304 on-base percentage and a .410 slugging percentage. He hit 7 home runs, drove in 17 runs, struck out 39 times in 125 plate appearances, and stole 6 bases. Defensively, he played 251 innings at second base, posting 3 Defensive Runs Saved and 3 Outs Above Average.

This is Chisholm’s second career oblique injury. He told reporters this one felt “less severe” than the first, which he suffered two years ago. “That’s why I’m really surprised in what it said,” Chisholm commented after his MRI.

On May 24, Chisholm posted a batting practice video to Instagram with the caption, “We gon have a problem.” He resumed light workouts on May 27, then traveled to Bridgewater, New Jersey, on May 28 to take batting practice with the Double-A Somerset Patriots at TD Bank Ballpark. He hit in Group 1 alongside catchers Rafael Flores and Antonio Gomez. The BP session was pitched by Somerset hitting coach Mike Fransoso.

According to Boone, Chisholm is now asymptomatic. If his hitting continues without setback, he could begin a rehab assignment on Thursday, May 30, during Somerset’s home series against the Akron RubberDucks, which runs through Sunday, June 2. Rehab assignments for position players are limited to 20 days. However, Boone suggested Chisholm may only need one or two games, supporting an MLB.com report stating Chisholm could return during the first full week of June.

Fernando Cruz — Right Shoulder Inflammation

Position: Relief Pitcher
Injury: Right shoulder inflammation
Injured List Status: 15-day IL since May 22 (retroactive to May 19)
Missed Games: 7
Current Status: Scheduled for bullpen session on May 29
Expected Return: First week of June

Cruz has been throwing on flat ground since May 23. He is scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Wednesday, May 29, in Anaheim. Boone confirmed that if the session goes well, Cruz will face live hitters in a simulated game over the weekend in Los Angeles. If there are no setbacks, he could rejoin the active roster next week.

Luis Gil — Right Lat Strain

Position: Starting Pitcher
Injury: Right lat strain
Injured List Status: 60-day IL since March 24
Missed Games: 53
Current Status: Throwing; mound session scheduled for May 31
Expected Return: July

Gil began a throwing program on April 27. According to Boone, Gil is scheduled to throw off a mound on Friday, May 31. Boone added, “Louie is doing really good. He feels really good.” If he progresses as planned, he will begin a ramp-up process to return in July.

Giancarlo Stanton — Tennis Elbow in Both Arms

Position: Designated Hitter
Injury: Tendinitis in both elbows
Injured List Status: 60-day IL since March 26 (retroactive to March 24); moved to 60-day IL officially on May 1
Missed Games: 53
Current Status: Taking live BP in Tampa
Expected Return: Mid-to-late June

Stanton traveled to the Yankees’ training complex in Tampa on May 27. He began a program that includes daily simulated at-bats and base running. GM Brian Cashman stated in a May 26 interview on SiriusXM MLB Network Radio that Stanton will stay in Tampa for two weeks of simulated games. After that, the team will evaluate whether he will begin a rehab assignment.

Boone said Stanton may not need a rehab stint if he gets enough at-bats in sim games but added, “We’ll see what we’re going to do next week, if it’s more of that or if it’s rehab assignment. We’re not quite there yet.”

Marcus Stroman — Left Knee Inflammation

Position: Starting Pitcher
Injury: Inflammation in left knee
Injured List Status: 15-day IL since April 12
Missed Games: 40
Current Status: Bullpen sessions completed
Expected Return: Late June to early July

Stroman threw two bullpen sessions during the week of May 20 with no discomfort. He had previously experienced pain during a live BP in early May, which slowed his progress. If his recovery continues without issues, he will begin facing live hitters.

JT Brubaker — Left Rib Fractures

Position: Starting Pitcher
Injury: Fractures in the left rib area
Injured List Status: 60-day IL since March 26 (retroactive to March 24); transferred to 60-day on April 1
Missed Games: 53
Current Status: Rehab assignment in progress
Expected Return: Mid-to-late June

Brubaker began his 30-day rehab assignment on May 18 with High-A Hudson Valley. In that outing, he threw 3 scoreless innings and struck out 3. On May 23, he pitched for Double-A Somerset and went 2.2 innings, giving up 2 runs (1 earned) on 3 walks and no strikeouts.

Brubaker is out of minor-league options. By mid-June, the Yankees must either add him to the 26-man roster or designate him for assignment.

Gerrit Cole — Tommy John Surgery Recovery

Position: Starting Pitcher
Injury: UCL reconstruction (Tommy John surgery on March 11)
Injured List Status: 60-day IL since March 22
Missed Games: 53
Current Status: Strengthening phase of rehab (Week 11)
Expected Return: June 2026

Cole had Tommy John surgery on March 11, ending his 2025 season – week 11 of his recovery plan. According to the Yankees’ schedule, Cole will continue strengthening his arm until at least early August. If he stays on track, he will begin light throwing during the second week of August, which will mark five months post-surgery.

Jake Cousins — Right Elbow Flexor Strain

Position: Relief Pitcher
Injury: Right elbow flexor strain
Injured List Status: 60-day IL since March 27
Missed Games: 53
Current Status: No update available
Expected Return: Undetermined

Cousins has been on the injured list since March 27 and has not appeared in any rehab games. The Yankees have not provided a new update on his condition or a potential return date.

Oswaldo Cabrera — Left Ankle Fracture

Position: Third Baseman
Injury: Fracture in the left ankle
Injured List Status: 10-day IL since May 13
Missed Games: 12
Current Status: Inactive, early rehab stage
Expected Return: 2026 season

Cabrera fractured his left ankle during a collision at home plate in Seattle in early May. He has not resumed any baseball activity and is expected to miss the rest of the season. The Yankees project his recovery to extend into the offseason.

As players like Jazz Chisholm, Fernando Cruz, and Luis Gil move closer to returning, the team could soon be even stronger. The next few weeks will be important as the Yankees work to get healthy and stay on top of the AL East.

Offshore Sportsbooks and Their Place in the U.S. Gambling Landscape

Best Offshore Sportsbooks

Online gambling in the U.S. has changed a lot over the past decade, but the laws and availability are still pretty confusing and unclear.

What’s legal depends on where you live, what you’re betting on, and who is taking the action. As more states regulated digital sports betting, the need for clear information has never been greater.

For years, many Americans turned to offshore sportsbooks to place bets on everything from football to table tennis. Now, with regulated options expanding and legal lines hardening, the question is: where do offshore sites still fit in — and what do bettors need to know?

Is Online Gambling Legal in the U.S.?

That’s the question on everyone’s mind, and the short answer is: it depends.

While 38 states and Washington, D.C. have legalized sports betting, only a portion of those allow online betting, and fewer still permit online casinos. Because each state writes its own rules, the nation is made up of a patchwork system with plenty of legislative blind spots.

At the federal level, there is no law banning online gambling outright. Instead, laws like the Wire Act and UIGEA place heavy restrictions on how payments are processed and how bets can be transmitted across state lines. Sports betting became a state-level issue after the Supreme Court overturned the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA).

In states without legal online options, many bettors have historically turned to offshore sportsbooks, which operate outside of U.S. jurisdiction. These platforms exist in a legal gray area and are accessible but unregulated. Despite this, they remain a popular option where domestic betting sites don’t exist.

What Can You Bet on in the U.S.?

In states that have legalized online gambling, the breadth of betting options continues to grow. Licensed operators typically offer sports betting across the major leagues like the NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, and NCAA.

Many also include more niche markets like MMA, competitive video games (esports), and international soccer.

Casino games, where legal, include slots, blackjack, roulette, video poker, and even live dealer games. In a handful of states, online poker rooms are also available, though real-money liquidity is often pooled across just a few jurisdictions via interstate compacts.

Offshore sportsbooks, by contrast, often carry broader market options, including proposition bets that U.S.-licensed books might avoid due to regulatory scrutiny. While that freedom may appeal to some bettors, it comes without the oversight or consumer protections that come with state-authorized platforms.

A Brief History of U.S. Gambling Law

Federal Shifts: Wire Act and UIGEA

The Wire Act of 1961 was originally passed to prevent sports betting via telephone lines, targeting organized crime, not online users. But as the internet became a reality, the Wire Act’s interpretation grew murky.

Then came the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA) of 2006, which restricted banks from processing payments to unregulated gambling sites.

Together, these laws didn’t ban gambling outright, but they began choking off infrastructure and pushed most online activity offshore.

The Fall of PASPA and State Control

The real turning point came in 2018, when the Supreme Court struck down PASPA, a federal law prohibiting sports betting in most states. That landmark ruling gave states full authority to legalize and regulate sports wagering.

Since then, states like New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Illinois have built multi-billion-dollar regulated markets. Others have lagged, creating a patchy landscape — and leaving gaps that offshore books continue to fill.

Stakeholders and Legal Battles

State lawmakers, tribal nations, and commercial casinos all shape local gambling laws.

In some states, tribal compacts slow or control online expansion. In other words, political gridlock delays legislation. This results in inconsistent access, uneven consumer protections, and a legal environment that seems to be in an eternal state of flux.

How States Compare, and What’s Driving Competition

Legalized sports betting has become a regional economic race. States with online sportsbooks, like New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, have brought in billions of dollars in tax revenue. Several nearby states have started following suit to avoid losing market share.

State Online Sports Betting Retail-Only No Legal Betting
AZ, AR, CO, CT, DE, FL, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, ME, MD, MA, MI, NV, NH, NJ, NY, NC, OH, OR, PA, RI, TN, VT, VA, WA, WV, WY ✅ ❌ ❌
MS, MT, NE, NM, ND, SD, WI ❌ ✅ ❌
AL, AK, CA, GA, HI, ID, MN, MO, OK, SC, TX, UT ❌ ❌ ✅

As this competition intensifies, pressure mounts on holdout states to either legalize or risk losing bettors to neighboring states or offshore alternatives.

Who’s Shaping Gambling Policy in the U.S.?

Behind every major change in U.S. gambling law — from the sweeping ballot initiatives to quiet regulatory shifts — there’s a cast of powerful stakeholders pushing policy in different directions.

Gambling in the U.S. isn’t guided by a single federal entity, it’s shaped by a tangle of state legislatures, tribal authorities, corporate interests, and advocacy organizations. Everyone of them with their own agendas.

State Legislatures

Lawmakers in state capitols hold the keys. Since the fall of PASPA, dozens of state houses have introduced or passed legislation to legalize or expand gambling. But not all bills are created equal, trite as it might be.

Some states move quickly to legalize online sportsbooks, others pass restrictive measures limiting betting to in-person venues, or restrict access to in-state college-level sports markets.

Legislative politics often determine whether bills make it to a governor’s desk — or die in a committee under pressure from competing interests.

Tribal Gaming Authorities

In many states, federally recognized Native American tribes control significant portions of the gambling industry through long-standing compacts. These agreements often grant tribes exclusivity over certain types of betting, including online wagering.

In Florida, for example, the Seminole Tribe holds exclusive rights to mobile sports betting under a controversial deal struck with the state.

Tribal interests can be allies or roadblocks depending on how legislation is structured. Some have embraced digital expansion, while others have resisted efforts that threaten their exclusivity.

Commercial Casino Operators

National casino brands are among the most aggressive lobbyists in this space. These operators want broad market access, particularly to mobile users, and often work behind the scenes to shape legislation in their favor. They back lobbying groups, fund campaign contributions, and in some cases, launch media campaigns to sway public sentiment.

Their influence is most obvious in states like Illinois and Pennsylvania, where mobile betting platforms are now fully integrated with retail casino brands.

Advocacy & Policy Organizations

Groups like the National Council of Legislators from Gaming States (NCLGS) and the American Gaming Association (AGA) work to shape the broader conversation around gambling law. While they don’t set policy directly, they help draft model legislation, provide research to lawmakers, and promote responsible gambling standards across jurisdictions.

Meanwhile, non-industry watchdogs and anti-gambling coalitions also work to limit or control the expansion of online wagering, especially in states where opposition to gambling still runs strong.

Practicing Responsible Online Gambling

Whether you’re betting with a licensed operator or still using offshore platforms, responsible gambling is essential. Risks include:

  • Chasing losses
  • Gambling beyond your means
  • Addiction, especially with in-play betting or constant mobile access

Key Resources:

National Problem Gambling Helpline

NCPG (National Council on Problem Gambling)

GamTalk (Peer Support)

Additionally, state-run sportsbooks typically offer tools to self-limit deposits, set betting caps, or opt into time-outs. Offshore sites may not.

What’s Next for Online Gambling in the U.S.?

The U.S. is nowhere near finished with online gambling reform. Several large states, including California, Texas, and Georgia, have active legislation or ballot initiatives in the works. If passed, they could reshape the national map.

In the meantime, you can expect:

  • Growth in micro-betting and live, in-play markets
  • More attention on offshore enforcement and consumer safety
  • Pressure for interstate compacts to pool liquidity and standardize rules

Whether the market unifies or remains fractured, one thing is certain: Americans will keep betting. The question, then, is who will get to take the bets (and therefore, the revenue) and under what rules.

The best offshore sportsbooks are like going on a date with someone out of town and expecting nothing – before realizing you want to commit to them forever.

Licensed VS Offshore – Why Bet at International Sports Betting Sites?

Offshore betting sites are often talked about – but why are they so advantageous?

Offshore Sports Betting Pros

Widely Accessible

Offshore sportsbooks are much more accessible than in-country licensed online sports betting sites. So, whether you’re betting from California or another state or country – you can easily sign up and start betting.

More Withdrawal Options & Faster Payouts

Offshore sportsbooks accept a range of cryptocurrencies that may be hard to find elsewhere, as well as other deposit and withdrawal options that aren’t necessarily the standard in online betting. This means that you can also get the fastest payouts with these bookies, as cryptos allow for withdrawals within a few hours.

Higher Deposit and Bet Limits

The best international sports betting sites typically have higher deposit limits and higher bet limits, giving you more freedom with your bets. This will especially suit high-stakes bettors who tend to wager thousands of dollars on a single event.

Broader Range of Sports Betting Options

While licensed sportsbooks are limited to sports that are licensed in the state, offshore sportsbooks allow you to bet on pretty much any sport you can think of. This diversity appeals to users looking for niche betting markets or more varied gambling opportunities.

Offshore Sports Betting Cons

Varied Quality of Design

Some overseas sportsbooks often have inconsistent design and user experience, which might impact the overall usability and betting experience.

No Direct PayPal Deposits

Many offshore sportsbooks do not support direct PayPal deposits, making it inconvenient for users who rely on this popular payment method.

Joyce Watterman Runs for Mayor Amid DOJ Lawsuit and NJ Primary Election

By
Moses Lookman
-
Joyce Watterman

As New Jersey prepares for one of its most important election years in decades, both local and statewide races are drawing strong attention. At the center of the local spotlight is Jersey City Council President Joyce Watterman, who has officially entered the race for mayor. Her campaign launch comes at a time when the federal government has sued Jersey City over its sanctuary city policies.

At the state level, the first gubernatorial primary since Governor Phil Murphy reached his term limit features 11 candidates—six Democrats and five Republicans—competing to replace him. All 80 seats in the New Jersey General Assembly are also up for election, with over 200 candidates running. The primary will be held on Tuesday, June 10, 2025.

Key Takeaways
  • Joyce Watterman is running for Jersey City mayor while opposing a DOJ lawsuit challenging the city’s sanctuary city policies.
  • New Jersey’s 2025 primary includes 11 major candidates for governor—six Democrats and five Republicans—as Governor Phil Murphy is term-limited.
  • For the first time, New Jersey’s primary will use ballots without the “county line,” affecting over 200 legislative races and increasing competition.

Joyce Watterman Responds to Federal Lawsuit and Enters Mayoral Race

Joyce Watterman, who currently serves as Jersey City Council President, confirmed that she is running for mayor in the 2025 election. She made the announcement in a public letter, which also addressed a federal lawsuit. The lawsuit was filed by the U.S. Department of Justice against Jersey City for maintaining sanctuary city policies. These policies limit how much local law enforcement can work with federal immigration authorities, especially when it comes to undocumented residents.

According to the DOJ, Jersey City’s policies interfere with federal immigration enforcement. However, Watterman argues that these policies are meant to protect immigrant families and build trust between the community and local police. She believes the lawsuit threatens that trust.

In the same week the lawsuit was filed, the U.S. House of Representatives, led by Republicans, passed a federal budget that includes major cuts to Medicaid and Medicare. Watterman said these cuts, combined with the DOJ lawsuit, would affect many people in Jersey City because many residents rely on these healthcare programs for medicine and doctor visits. She explained that if the cuts happen, people could be forced to choose between food and medical care.

In her campaign, Watterman said she would stand against federal overreach. She also promised to protect access to healthcare and keep Jersey City welcoming to all people. Her campaign focuses on protecting local values, especially during a time when federal policies may affect everyday life in the city.

New Jersey’s 2025 Primary for Governor Is One of the Most Crowded in History

While Jersey City’s mayoral race is getting attention, the state of New Jersey is preparing for a primary election that will decide who will run to become the next governor. Current Governor Phil Murphy, a Democrat, cannot run again because New Jersey law limits governors to two terms. As a result, six Democrats and five Republicans are competing to replace him in the June 10 primary.

The six Democratic candidates are:

  • Ras Baraka, age 54, is the mayor of Newark. He is running on a progressive platform. He was recently detained by ICE agents during a protest outside a detention center in Newark. Charges against him were dropped.
  • Steven Fulop, age 48, is the mayor of Jersey City. He is running a campaign against political insiders. He is a former U.S. Marine and worked on Wall Street before entering politics.
  • Josh Gottheimer, age 50, is a U.S. Representative from Bergen County. He is a former speechwriter for President Bill Clinton. He released a campaign ad that shows an AI version of himself boxing Donald Trump.
  • Mikie Sherrill, age 53, is a U.S. Representative from Essex County. She is a former Navy pilot and federal prosecutor. She is currently the only woman in the race and is leading in most Democratic polls.
  • Sean Spiller, age 50, is president of the New Jersey Education Association and the former mayor of Montclair. His campaign is supported by $35 million from the NJEA, although he did not qualify for the primary debate stage because his campaign did not raise enough money.
  • Steve Sweeney, age 65, is the former President of the New Jersey Senate. He served in the state legislature for over 20 years but lost his seat in 2021 to a Republican truck driver.

On the Republican side, five candidates are running:

  • Jack Ciattarelli, age 63, is a former State Assemblyman. He ran for governor in 2021 and lost to Murphy by about 3 points. This year, he received the endorsement of Donald Trump.
  • Bill Spadea, age 56, is a former radio host and Marine. He is a strong conservative voice and is running as a pro-Trump candidate. He is critical of vaccines and LGBTQ-inclusive school policies.
  • Jon Bramnick, age 72, is a State Senator. He has served in the state legislature for 22 years and is known as a centrist. He is also a practicing attorney and part-time stand-up comedian.
  • Mario Kranjac, age 59, is the former mayor of Englewood Cliffs. He describes himself as a Trump-style Republican and says he wants to govern the state in that image.
  • Justin Barbera, age 44, is a contractor from South Jersey. He did not raise much money but submitted over 2,500 petition signatures to get on the ballot. He also ran for Congress previously.

This year’s election is also different because of a court ruling that removed the “county line” from the ballot. In the past, party-backed candidates appeared in a preferred spot on the ballot. Without the county line, all candidates are listed in a random order, and it could make the results less predictable and give lesser-known candidates a better chance.

Over 200 Candidates Compete for All 80 State Assembly Seats

In addition to the governor’s race, every seat in the New Jersey General Assembly is on the ballot. The General Assembly is the lower house of the state Legislature. A total of 209 candidates are running in the June 10 primary: 123 Democrats and 86 Republicans. This is the highest number of Assembly candidates in a primary since 1977.

One local race that has gained attention is in the 32nd Legislative District, which covers parts of Hoboken and Jersey City. On May 21, 2025, six Democratic candidates for the Assembly took part in a debate hosted by the Hoboken and Jersey City Democratic Committees. Steve Lenox, publisher of TAPinto Hoboken and TAPinto Jersey City, moderated the debate. The topics discussed included immigration, transportation, housing, education, healthcare, and the state budget.

The candidates in the debate were:

  • Jennie Pu, Director of the Hoboken Public Library
  • Ravi Bhalla, Mayor of Hoboken
  • Yousef Saleh, Jersey City Councilmember for Ward D
  • Jessica Ramirez, current Assemblywoman and immigration attorney
  • Katie Brennan, housing advocate and former chief of staff at the New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency
  • Crystal Fonseca, Director of Jersey City’s Division of Buildings and Street Maintenance

Each candidate shared specific experiences and ideas related to state policies and local needs. The debate was organized to help voters learn more about the candidates before the June primary.

Hoboken Public Schools Earn Fifth NAMM Foundation Award for Music Education

By
Moses Lookman
-

On May 25, 2025, the Hoboken Public School District in Hoboken, New Jersey, received the Best Communities for Music Education award from The NAMM Foundation. This is the fifth year in a row the district has received this award. The honor recognizes districts across the United States that show strong results in providing quality music education to all students.

The award program, now in its 26th year, looks closely at how well schools support music. Hoboken continues to meet and exceed the national standards.

Key Takeaways
  • Hoboken Public School District received its fifth consecutive Best Communities for Music Education award from The NAMM Foundation on May 25, 2025.
  • The district met verified national standards in funding, student participation, instructional time, facilities, and community support, confirmed by the Music Research Institute at the University of Kansas.
  • The program meets Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) requirements and supports improved academics, graduation rates, memory, and social skills.

Award Based on Verified National Criteria

To qualify for the Best Communities for Music Education award, the Hoboken Public School District was required to complete a comprehensive survey that examined the following areas in detail:

  • Funding specifically allocated to music education programs
  • Student participation rates across grade levels and schools
  • Instructional time dedicated to music classes during the academic year
  • Music facilities and equipment are available to students and educators
  • Community support, including parent and local organization involvement

The completed survey was verified by Hoboken school district officials, ensuring that all submitted data was accurate. After verification, the results were independently reviewed by The Music Research Institute at the University of Kansas, which partners with The NAMM Foundation to assess the validity and performance of applying school districts.

This rigorous process means that only districts that can prove a strong and consistent commitment to high-quality music instruction receive this designation.

Hoboken’s Program Matches Federal Education Law

Hoboken’s music program also follows the rules in the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). ESSA is a federal law that replaced the No Child Left Behind Act in 2015. The law says that music and the arts are important parts of a complete education.

Because Hoboken offers music to all students and includes it in the regular school day, it meets the federal standard. This helps show why the district continues to be recognized at the national level.

Research Supports Benefits of Music Education

David Stasiak, the District Coordinator of Music and Performing Arts, explained that music helps students in many ways.

Studies show that students who take music classes:

  • Develop stronger language and reasoning skills
  • Score higher on standardized tests
  • Are more likely to graduate high school
  • Show improved cognitive processing, memory, and attention
  • Learn essential social skills like teamwork, self-discipline, and confidence

These results are measurable and have been tracked across both short-term academic achievement and long-term life outcomes.

Community and School Support Make It Possible

This award also shows that Hoboken supports the arts as a full community. The school district continues to fund music programs every year. Parents attend student concerts and support music classes through fundraisers and events.

Without this support, the programs would not grow. The school board, teachers, families, and community groups all help make music part of every student’s education.

About The NAMM Foundation

The NAMM Foundation is a nonprofit group supported by the National Association of Music Merchants and its 15,000 members worldwide. The Foundation supports music education by giving grants, sharing research, and helping schools and communities start or grow music programs.

Rangers Forced to Rethink Offseason as Jack Eichel Says No to New York

By
Paulius Kundzelevicius
-
Rangers Regroup as Jack Eichel

The New York Rangers have entered the 2025 offseason in urgent need of change. After winning the Presidents’ Trophy in the 2023–24 NHL season with the league’s best record, the team followed up with a massive letdown in 2024–25, finishing 5th in the Metropolitan Division and missing the playoffs.

Their final record: 39 wins, 36 losses, 7 overtime losses.

General Manager Chris Drury began his response by firing head coach Peter Laviolette and hiring Mike Sullivan, a coach with two Stanley Cup wins (2016, 2017) from his time with the Pittsburgh Penguins. But the roster itself also needs changes. The Rangers were hoping to build around a new No. 1 center, and they had their eyes on Jack Eichel of the Vegas Golden Knights—a player they had previously tried to acquire in 2021 when he was still with the Buffalo Sabres.

That plan is now dead.

Key Takeaways
  • Jack Eichel will remain with the Vegas Golden Knights, ending the Rangers’ hopes of acquiring him before his contract expires after the 2025–26 season.
  • The New York Rangers finished the 2024–25 season with a 39-36-7 record, missed the playoffs, and replaced head coach Peter Laviolette with Mike Sullivan.
  • With Eichel off the table, the Rangers are targeting free agent Brock Nelson and may trade veteran Chris Kreider to adjust their roster and cap space.

Elliotte Friedman: “Jack Eichel is Staying in Vegas”

In late May 2025, NHL insider Elliotte Friedman reported on his 32 Thoughts Podcast that Jack Eichel will not leave the Vegas Golden Knights. Despite being just over a year away from unrestricted free agency—his contract ends after the 2025–26 season—Eichel and Vegas are committed to each other.

Friedman’s exact words were:

“They’re happy with him. He’s happy with them. You know, these negotiations, they’re always a grind. But I’d be shocked if he is anywhere but Vegas in a year from now. Shocked.”

This confirms that Vegas plans to extend Eichel, who is eligible for an extension this summer. For the Rangers, it means the end of their hopes to sign or trade for him.

Eichel’s value is at an all-time high. He just completed his best NHL season with 28 goals, 66 assists, and 94 total points in 77 games. He also remains the offensive centerpiece for Vegas, who still view themselves as a championship-caliber team.

The Rangers, who had previously failed to land Eichel in 2021, will now have to look elsewhere to solve their center-depth problems. His contract would have aligned with the Rangers’ current financial structure. Artemi Panarin’s contract also expires after 2025–26, and Chris Kreider’s deal ends after 2026–27.

Rangers’ 2024–25 Season Breakdown and Fallout

The Rangers’ collapse in the 2024–25 season was both fast and costly. They began the year with a 10-5-1 record in their first 16 games but then fell into inconsistency. By the end of the season, they had slipped to 5th place in the Metropolitan Division, behind teams like the Carolina Hurricanes and New Jersey Devils, and failed to secure even a Wild Card spot.

Their final record was 39 wins, 36 regulation losses, and 7 overtime losses. Missing the playoffs just one season after finishing first in the NHL was unacceptable.

As a result, head coach Peter Laviolette was fired. GM Chris Drury hired Mike Sullivan to take over coaching duties. Sullivan last coached the Pittsburgh Penguins and led them to back-to-back Stanley Cups in 2016 and 2017. Sullivan brings a more structured and disciplined system. He’s expected to demand more consistency, especially from aging veterans like Chris Kreider.

Kreider’s Decline and Trade Possibility

Chris Kreider, 34, had one of his worst statistical seasons in years. After multiple strong seasons as a power-play threat and net-front presence, his 2024–25 stats were 22 goals, 8 assists, and 30 points total. For comparison, Kreider scored 52 goals in 2021–22. His output has dropped sharply.

Kreider’s current contract pays him $6.5 million per season and lasts until the end of 2026–27. With that in mind, and the team shifting direction under Mike Sullivan, Kreider may be traded this offseason. Several NHL insiders expect Drury to explore offers, especially if it allows the team to clear cap space and bring in younger talent or a reliable second-line center.

Mika Zibanejad Rebounds with Team Sweden

While Kreider struggled, Mika Zibanejad showed signs of turning things around, just not in a Rangers uniform. After a frustrating season where he scored 62 points in 82 games, a drop from 91 in 2021–22 and 72 in 2022–23, Zibanejad joined Team Sweden for the 2025 IIHF World Championship.

In that tournament, Zibanejad recorded 4 goals in 6 games. Swedish teammate Rasmus Andersson praised him, saying, “He takes on that leadership role… He’s been really himself here.”

Zibanejad admitted that he lost confidence early in the NHL season. He said, “Mentally, what I went through the first few months was probably the toughest I’ve ever been through in my career… I didn’t play for free.” Now, under Mike Sullivan, Zibanejad could be key to turning the Rangers around, especially if he brings that same poise and leadership back to New York.

Brock Nelson Becomes a Priority Target

With Eichel off the board, the Rangers are turning their attention to Brock Nelson, a 33-year-old center who finished the season with the Colorado Avalanche after being traded from the New York Islanders.

Nelson’s 2024–25 regular season stats were 26 goals, 30 assists, and 56 points in 80 games, with a +8 plus-minus rating. In the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs, Nelson played 7 games, recording 0 goals, 4 assists, a +2 rating, and 17 minutes and 50 seconds average ice time. The Avalanche were eliminated in the first round by the Dallas Stars, and Nelson is expected to become a free agent.

The Rangers are expected to make an offer. Nelson, drafted 30th overall in 2010 by the Islanders, is familiar with New York and may welcome a return. However, the Rangers will face competition. The Toronto Maple Leafs, eliminated by the Florida Panthers in Game 7, are rumored to be looking for center depth. With John Tavares potentially hitting free agency, Nelson could be on their list.

NHL Free Agency opens on July 1 at 12:00 PM ET, and Nelson will likely receive multiple offers. The Rangers will need to act fast and offer a competitive deal.

Giancarlo Stanton’s Elbow Setback Leaves Yankees Without Timeline for Return

Giancarlo Stanton Injury Update

Giancarlo Stanton is once again out of the New York Yankees lineup, this time because of tendonitis in both elbows. While fans expected him to begin a rehab assignment soon, that will not happen yet. According to Yankees manager Aaron Boone, Stanton is not ready and there is no set timeline for his return.

This update came during the Subway Series against the New York Mets over the weekend, where the Yankees won two out of three games. Brian Hoch of MLB.com shared the news on X, formerly Twitter, shortly before the final game of the series. Although the Yankees beat the Mets, the lack of progress from Stanton was the biggest story.

Key Takeaways
  • Giancarlo Stanton remains out with tendonitis in both elbows and Yankees manager Aaron Boone says there is no set timeline for his return.
  • Stanton’s 2024 stats include 97 hits, 72 RBIs, and 27 home runs, but ongoing injury concerns are fueling trade speculation, including possible links to the Mariners.
  • Ben Rice is filling in at Designated Hitter, while the Yankees continue strong offensive performance with Cody Bellinger and Aaron Judge leading the lineup.

Stanton’s Past Numbers Still Matter, But His Health Is the Problem

In 2018, he hit a 121.7 MPH home run, the fastest ever recorded in Major League Baseball. During the 2024 season, he had 97 hits, 72 RBIs, and 27 home runs, which shows how much power he still has.

However, his ability to stay on the field is the issue. This latest injury is not a surprise to many. In fact, Zachary Howell of ClutchPoints said that some believe Stanton may never play a full season again.

The Yankees have had to adjust. For now, Ben Rice, a second-year player, is filling in as Designated Hitter. Rice is doing a solid job, hitting .250 with 35 hits, 26 runs, and 9 home runs in 140 at-bats.

In addition, other big names are performing well. Cody Bellinger hit a grand slam in the Yankees’ recent win, and Aaron Judge is leading the team with an impressive .401 batting average. Because of this, the Yankees are still producing strong results without Stanton.

Trade Rumors Begin as Patience Wears Thin

Since Stanton is not close to returning, and the Yankees have enough hitters producing runs, trade talk has started. Some insiders have pointed to the Seattle Mariners as a possible fit.

There is a reason behind this speculation. First, the Yankees may want to clear Stanton’s roster spot. Second, they might prefer to invest in younger, more durable players. Still, trading Stanton would not be simple. His contract is large, and his injury record may scare off other teams.

Boone has not confirmed or denied any trade talks, but the silence about Stanton’s return is making the situation harder to ignore. There’s a growing feeling that the team might have to make a hard decision soon.

The Life and Legacy of Babe Ruth

George Herman Ruth Jr., known as Babe Ruth, was born on February 6, 1895, in Baltimore, Maryland. He became the most dominant and influential player in the history of Major League Baseball. Known by nicknames like “The Bambino” and “The Sultan of Swat,” Ruth hit 714 career home runs, won seven World Series titles, and helped turn baseball into America’s national sport.

To understand how Babe Ruth became a legend, we must start with his childhood.

Key Takeaways
  • Babe Ruth changed baseball by introducing power-hitting. His home run records ended the dead-ball era and made offense the focus of the game.
  • The Red Sox sold Ruth to the Yankees in 1919 for $100,000, which helped to build the Yankees into the most successful team in baseball history.
  • Ruth became the first true sports celebrity in the U.S. His fame, records, and personality made him a national icon.

Troubled Childhood in Baltimore and Life at St. Mary’s School

Ruth’s early life was difficult. His parents, George Sr. and Kate Ruth, ran a saloon in a poor part of Baltimore. Out of their eight children, only Ruth and his sister Mamie survived. His parents were often absent, and Ruth began skipping school, drinking, and stealing at a young age.

In 1902, at age seven, he was sent to St. Mary’s Industrial School for Boys, a Catholic institution run by the Xaverian Brothers. Ruth lived there for most of the next 12 years. Brother Matthias Boutlier taught him discipline and baseball. Matthias became a father figure and helped Ruth develop his athletic ability, especially as a pitcher and hitter.

Signing with the Orioles and Earning the Name “Babe”

In 1914, Jack Dunn, owner of the minor-league Baltimore Orioles, signed Ruth to a $600 contract. Because Ruth was only 19, Dunn became his legal guardian to complete the deal. Players on the team referred to him as “Dunn’s babe,” and the name stuck.

Later that year, Dunn sold Ruth to the Boston Red Sox. Ruth made his Major League debut on July 11, 1914. He pitched in four games that season. The Red Sox then sent him to the Providence Grays, where he helped win the International League pennant.

Pitching Stardom with the Boston Red Sox (1915–1919)

Ruth quickly became one of baseball’s top pitchers. In 1915, he went 18–8 with a 2.44 ERA. In 1916, he led the league with a 1.75 ERA and won 23 games. In 1917, he had a 24–13 record with 35 complete games in 38 starts.

Between 1915 and 1919, Ruth won 87 games and had a career ERA of 2.16. He also performed well in the postseason, pitching 29⅔ consecutive scoreless innings across the 1916 and 1918 World Series.

By 1918, the Red Sox began using Ruth more as a hitter. He hit 11 home runs that year, tying for the league lead. In 1919, he hit 29 home runs, breaking the single-season record of 27, set in 1884 by Ned Williamson.

The Famous Trade to the Yankees

On December 26, 1919, Red Sox owner Harry Frazee sold Ruth to the New York Yankees for $100,000 and a $300,000 loan. Ruth signed a two-year contract with the Yankees for $10,000 per year.

In his first season with the Yankees in 1920, Ruth hit 54 home runs. No other player hit more than 19. Only the Philadelphia Phillies hit more as a team. In 1921, he hit 59 home runs, had 171 RBIs, scored 177 runs, batted .376, and posted a .846 slugging percentage.

The Yankees drew 1.29 million fans in 1920, setting a new attendance record. Ruth’s popularity made the team the most talked-about in baseball. In 1923, the Yankees opened Yankee Stadium, immediately dubbed “The House That Ruth Built.”

Breaking Records and Building the Yankees Dynasty (1923–1932)

In 1923, Ruth hit 41 home runs, batted .393, and had a .764 slugging percentage. He won the league MVP award and helped the Yankees win their first World Series title.

His production dropped in 1924 and 1925 due to illness, but from 1926 through 1932, Ruth averaged 49 home runs and 151 RBIs per season with a .353 batting average. The Yankees won four pennants and three World Series in that stretch.

In 1927, Ruth hit 60 home runs, setting a single-season record that stood until 1961. That year’s Yankees team, known as “Murderers’ Row,” featured Ruth and Lou Gehrig and is widely considered the greatest team in baseball history.

During the 1932 World Series against the Chicago Cubs, Ruth hit his most famous home run—his so-called “called shot.” According to the story, he pointed toward the center-field bleachers and then hit the next pitch to that exact location. While the details are still debated, the moment became part of his legend.

Decline, Final Season with the Braves, and Retirement

Ruth’s performance began to decline after 1932. He wanted to become the Yankees’ manager, but owner Jacob Ruppert refused, saying Ruth lacked discipline.

In 1935, Ruth joined the Boston Braves as a player and assistant manager. He played 28 games and hit six home runs. On May 25, he hit three home runs in a single game. He retired shortly afterward, finishing his career with 714 home runs, 2,214 RBIs, and a .342 lifetime batting average.

Hall of Fame, Health Decline, and Final Appearance

In 1936, Ruth was inducted into the newly established Baseball Hall of Fame as one of the first five members, along with Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson, Honus Wagner, and Christy Mathewson.

During retirement, Ruth made public appearances and endorsed various products. His agent, Christy Walsh, helped him manage his finances and image. In 1938, Ruth worked briefly as a coach for the Brooklyn Dodgers.

In 1946, Ruth was diagnosed with throat cancer. His condition worsened over time. On June 13, 1948, he made his last public appearance at Yankee Stadium during a ceremony to retire his number 3.

Babe Ruth died on August 16, 1948, in New York City at the age of 53. His body lay in state at Yankee Stadium, where over 100,000 people came to pay their respects. About 75,000 attended his funeral at St. Patrick’s Cathedral.

Babe Ruth’s Influence on Baseball and the Live-Ball Era

Ruth changed how baseball was played. Before him, teams relied on bunts, base stealing, and small-ball strategies. Ruth introduced power hitting, which became the centerpiece of the game.

From 1918 to 1921, stolen bases dropped from 1,989 to 1,487. Home runs increased from 235 to 937. Total runs rose from 7,382 to 11,928. Ruth’s rise also helped the game recover from the 1919 Black Sox scandal.

Between 1921 and 1932, the Yankees won seven American League pennants and four World Series titles. Ruth was the cornerstone of their success.

National Fame and Cultural Legacy

Ruth’s popularity reached beyond baseball. In 1920, The New York Times wrote that tourists wanted to see him as much as the Woolworth Building. The word “Ruthian” became part of the American language and was used to describe anything extraordinary.

His fame made him one of the first true sports celebrities. He appeared in films, supported charities, and made national headlines almost daily. He even became a symbol of American optimism during the Roaring Twenties and the Great Depression.

7th Annual Great Jersey City Cleanup Set for May 31 Across All Six Wards

On Saturday, May 31, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., Jersey City will carry out its 7th Annual Great Jersey City Cleanup. The event is a citywide cleanup operation organized by Mayor Steven Fulop, the Department of Public Works (DPW), and the Office of Cultural Affairs. The goal is to remove trash, clean parks and sidewalks, and perform maintenance work in six specific city locations—one in each ward.

This cleanup is part of the “Keep Jersey City Beautiful” initiative. The campaign is a local branch of the national Keep America Beautiful program, which promotes clean, safe, and healthy communities through organized volunteer efforts.

Key Takeaways
  • The 7th Annual Great Jersey City Cleanup takes place on May 31, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. across all six city wards.
  • Nearly 6,000 volunteers have removed over 24.2 tons of trash and recyclables since the event began in 2016.
  • Volunteers must register online; gloves and trash bags will be provided, but personal brooms or rakes are recommended due to limited supplies.

Volunteers Will Clean Parks, Sidewalks, and Streets

Cleanup teams will be stationed at the following locations:

  • Ward A: Bayside Park
  • Ward B: Lincoln Park
  • Ward C: Journal Square Plaza
  • Ward D: Riverview Park
  • Ward E: Hamilton Park
  • Ward F: Arlington Park

All volunteers must report to one of these six sites. Cleanup efforts will focus on removing litter, trash, and debris from sidewalks, parks, and public spaces. Volunteers will also help plant flowers and do basic maintenance to improve the look and safety of each area. City workers will support the volunteer teams at each ward location.

Gloves and trash bags will be available at every park listed. Volunteers are expected to bring their own brooms, rakes, or litter grabbers, as city supplies may not be enough for the number of people expected.

There is no age requirement, and no prior experience is needed. The city encourages individuals, families, students, and community organizations to register and participate.

Anyone who wants to volunteer must register through the City of Jersey City’s official website before the event.

6,000 Volunteers Have Participated Since 2016

This is the seventh year of the Great Jersey City Cleanup. Since the program began in 2016, a total of 5,976 volunteers have participated. They have collected a total of 24.2 tons of garbage and recyclable materials across the city.

In previous years, residents, students, nonprofit workers, and elected officials have joined the effort. The cleanup has been repeated each spring to maintain the city’s public areas and reduce illegal dumping.

This year’s event continues that record of direct public action. The city sees this as a proven strategy for improving Jersey City’s streets, parks, and sidewalks.

The city’s leadership says this event shows that large-scale cleanup is possible when local government and residents work together. Rather than a one-day project, a cleanup this size is about teaching long-term habits that lead to cleaner, safer neighborhoods citywide.

Registration is Required to Join the Cleanup

To join the cleanup, all participants must sign up through the City of Jersey City’s website. Registration allows the city to prepare enough supplies and assign volunteers to the correct ward locations.

The cleanup will begin at exactly 10:00 a.m. at each park and end at 2:00 p.m. Volunteers should arrive on time, dressed in weather-appropriate clothing, and ready to work outdoors for up to four hours.

This event will happen rain or shine, unless conditions are dangerous. Updates will be posted on the city’s website if changes are needed.
