August 14, 2010 (Kearny, NJ) In August of 2003, KearnyOnTheWeb launched a new version of its Discussion Board. The KOTW Discussion Board has gone through some updates through the years. This week we reached a milestone of 78,000 posts. An average of over 11,000 posts per year.

The Discussion Board has been at the heart of KOTW since its beginning. The Board has ebbs and flows and at times runs hot and cold. Some folks are regular visitors while others check in from time to time. KOTW's policy of trying not to edit posts has resulted in some interesting information being posted to the Discussion Board. The most visitors logged into the Discussion Board at one time was on December 19, 2006 when 167 were logged. Having 167 folks logged in at one time might not seem to be a lot (and it isn't) but in 2006 there was an average of 10 or 15 individuals logged in at any given time.

June 20, 2010 (Kearny, NJ) After spending over nine years as Kearny's Business Administrator Joseph D'Arco has decided to leave Kearny and accept a job as the Borough of Paramus' Administrator. D'Arco will retire by the end of June and will start his new job with the Borough of Paramus on August 1, 2010. Guest members of KOTW's Discussion Board had previously posted rumors of D'Arco's intentions to leave Kearny.

The move is not without controversy as D'Arco will be receiving two incomes as a result of his move from Kearny to Paramus. The first income will be from his State retirement benefits. The second income will be from his new salary as the Borough of Paramus business administrator. Paramus is paying D'Arco twenty thousand dollars less than Kearny. D'Arco made $162,000 per year in Kearny and will make $142,000 per year in Paramus.

May 30, 2010.  The Memorial Day weekend is a time to reflect and honor our soldiers present and past.  On November 19, 2005, one of Kearny's residents serving in Iraq lost his life as a result of a road side bomb in Baiji, Iraq.  Army Staff Sgt. Edward Karolasz gave the ultimate sacrifice for his country.  On this Memorial Day weekend, we stop to reflect and give thanks for all that Army Staff Sgt. Edward Karolasz and others have done on behalf of our country.  Our thoughts also go out to the the Karolasz family and friends.
