President Trump reportedly compared the war in Afghanistan to the renovation of Manhattans upscale 21 Club during a meeting with his military advisers.

Trump was discussing a war strategy for the beleaguered country when he mentioned how the posh restaurant botched their restoration in the 1980s by hiring an expensive consultant, according to NBC News.

The president said the 21 Club had shut it doors for a year only to learn that they needed a bigger kitchen.

The restaurant closed for two months in 1987.

The anecdote was meant to stress how people with experience in the day-to-day operations of the venture may have better advice then so-called experts.

The clear message if you heard the story was: high-priced consultants or high-priced anybody, expensive supposedly-big-brained people, but who are physically far from the source of the problem, often give you much worse advice than the supposedly low-ranking guys who are right there, an official told NBC.

GLEN ROCK - While 14 individuals representing various causes protested Congressman's Josh Gottheimer's(D-Wyckoff) vote for a defense funding bill late in the afternoon Aug. 8, his staffers were inside meeting with those concerned about veterans whobriefedthem on the benefits of the bill.

According to an Aug. 8 press release, "The bill contains key resources to support service members and veterans."

"I think CongressmanGottheimer'sopposition to some of the bill provisions, including the border wall funding, should be noted," Matt Fried, Gottheimer'sdistrict press secretary said.

Gottheimervoted in favor of thedefense appropriations bill that recently passed the House of Representatives. The bill included appropriations for the border wall.

Protesters were specifically angered by the funding for the border wall President Donald Trump promoted during his campaign and continues to support.

With a mock wall in front of them, one protester who addressed the group said, "We got rid of Scott Garrett because he did not represent the needs of New Jersey. Mr. Gottheimershould be on notice we're concerned."

"Our bottom line, brothers and sisters," Analilia Mejia, a representative of the Working Families Party, said, "is actions in DC impact us here in New Jersey."

One of the organizers of the protest, Matt Smithfrom Food & Water Watch, a non-profit organization out of New Brunswick, said Gottheimer'svoting record during his short tenure as a congressman (since January 2017), "has not represented many of his constituents."

Smith was concerned about energy infrastructure and Gottheimer'ssupportof the Midnight Rules Relief Act,which expands the power Congress has to overturn regulations by allowing lawmakers to bundle together rules adopted in a presidents final year in office and overturn them at once.

Gottheimerwas one of four democrats who supported the bill which passed 238-184.

The New Jersey congressman defended his vote stating "unnecessary and out-of-date regulations have been able to pile up on the books, burdening businesses large and small, and passing hidden costs along to families."

Support of Veteran's issues

Gottheimer's Director of Veterans Affairs met with local veterans in the Glen Rock office on Aug. 8 where the group discussed Gottheimer's support for resources to improve military readiness and the Veterans Administration, provisions formental health and traumatic brain injury treatment to veterans, resources to fight opiates,pay raises to the nation's armed services, and plans to defeat ISIS and other terrorist organizations.

Further details of the legislation include:

More details on this bipartisan legislation's provisions are availableHERE.

No wall support

"While a number of Jersey priorities and national security programs are resourced in this funding measure, Gottheimer does not support every provision of the bill and voted to remove allocated resources for a wall along the nation's southern border, something he has said will not make our families or communities more safe while hitting taxpayers squarely in the pocketbook," the press release said.

Gottheimer said he supports "common sense" efforts to reform theimmigration system.

"He isproud to defend Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) and cosponsor the Encourage New Legalized Immigrants to Start Training (ENLIST) Act, bipartisan legislation to help qualified undocumented immigrants who came to this country as children earn legal status through service in the U.S. Armed Forces," his representatives said. "He also stood with mayors and police chiefs by voting against H.R. 3003, which would punish state and local law enforcement for prioritizing protecting public safety."

In a direct statement, Gottheimersaid, "I am in Israel this week seeing first hand our nations' collaborative efforts to defeat terror, stand strong against Iran, and strengthen America's national security. I am grateful to these local veterans for serving our country and meeting with my team to discuss the vital provisions in the defense appropriations bill I recently voted for."

"Our government's top priority must always be the security of our country and communities and having the backs of those who risk their lives to keep our families safe," he said.

I thank Congressman Gottheimer for always standing by New Jersey veterans and making sure our service members have the resources they need abroad and the support they need when they return home,David Pearson, Assistant Director of Veteran Services, Catholic Family and Community Services, said in a statement.

Kenan Baldridge, Rose town supervisor

I hope you have been enjoying this fine summer weather, rain and all. It is better than snow.Speaking of water, our new water treatment plant on Catchpole Road is finally under construction. Many of the underground pipes and foundation blocks have been finished, along with some valves and a new hydrant. This includes the diversion of the main 24-inch diameter pipe from the well to the treatment plant. These are the parts that dont show much, but are necessary preliminary items before the aboveground parts can be constructed. The buildings walls are up, and the cement floor was recently poured and is curing now. We should take delivery of the interior equipment, including the actual treatment vessels, in August. They need to be lifted over the walls for placing. Then the roof can be completed and the equipment inside all connected and made ready for use. We are making good progress on this project and look forward to bringing it into service this fall.We have been logging the Salter Road gravel pit area in preparation for the construction of the solar array. Although this has taken us a while, due in part to inclement weather, this logging operation has netted the town over $21,000 to date, which will help to defray any local costs of the project. I expect that the last of the red tape should be completed on this fairly soon so we can begin construction. Once construction commences, it does not take long to complete it, so am looking forward to having this done by fall. Stay tuned.As you know, the coastal towns continue to suffer from flooding due to high lake levels. Although Rose does not have a coastline, this will still affect us indirectly. Many of the lake and bay shore businesses have been unable to open. If open, their business volume is lower than usual. This means that their sales tax collection is lower than usual. ince this tax is shared with the towns, it seems likely at this point that we will receive less sales tax revenue than usual. Fortunately, when we prepare the town budget we try to figure these things conservatively, but it is unclear how long or how severe this problem will last. We are in full swing with the lawn mowing season, and the rain has made things grow. Please note that the local town law requires lawns to be kept below 10 inches in height. Those households not complying will be given a written warning. If needed, 10 days later the town will mow the lawn. If this is needed, the bill will include a $75 administrative fee in addition to the mowing expense. We have not had to mow many lawns in the past few years, but we have done it and will continue to do it as needed.Dont forget the wonderful live concerts at Rose Union Community Building in Rose every Thursday evening at 7 p.m. This season is in full swing and will continue every week until the end of August. Please join me there, youll enjoy it.

Many of us have had that moment when we just couldnt hold it anymore and urinated on the lawn.

Then we were left to wonder, did we harm the grass?

If that sounds familiar, ... maybe you should seek medical treatment or at least learn to hold it until you can reach a bathroom.

But the question remains: Is peeing on a yard bad for the lawn? Any chance that it could actually help?

An article in the September issue of Popular Mechanics examined the science and concluded: It comes down to your, umm, technique.

Urine contains a number of beneficial nutrients also found in commercial fertilizer, such as nitrogen, a little bit of phosphorus and potassium, which are all needed for a healthy lawn, Owen Duckworth, associate professor of biogeochemistry at North Carolina State University, told Popular Mechanics.

A Lifehack.org article adds that plants generally need more nitrogen than any other element, as its used to synthesize amino acids, enzymes, proteins, and chlorophyll.

But pee also is high in salt and could burn and kill plants at full strength.

The solution, if you may, is to dilute the urine.

So rather than wildly going about your business in the yard, how about urinating in a watering can (your neighbors certainly will be much happier), then adding water before pouring it through the containers spout.

I generally recommend a 2-to-1 [water-to-urine] dilution to be safe, Ray Weil, a professor in the Department of Environmental Science and Technology at the University of Maryland, told Popular Mechanics. Urine is simply too concentrated for most plants to withstand when either applied to the leaves or even to the soil around especially younger plants.

Remember, practice makes perfect.

Just practice on your yard and not anyone elses.

BURBANK, Ill. Police say a Reavis student was pistol whipped and robbed while on his way to football practice at the school Tuesday morning.

Division Chief Mike Dudlo of the Burbank Police Department said the teen was walking westbound on 77th Street near Mayfield Avenue shortly after 8 a.m. when he was approached by a man with a gun.

"The offender ordered the student to give up his money," Dudlo said in an email. "When the student advised he did not have any money, the offender struck the student in the head with the gun."

The man proceeded to take personal items from the student before entering a vehicle possibly a black SUV that was last seen traveling southbound on Mason Avenue.

DARIEN The waning gibbous moon is in the sky over Darien this week. It wont be visible as a 24-percent waning crescent moon until next week, on August 17. That particular shape is visible every day on the front faade of the yellow colonial house at 17 McLaren Road.

Each of the exterior white shutters of this house is adorned with a crescent moon cut-out. Such detail might go unnoticed by some people but, according to the Atlantic Premium Shutters website, shutter cut-outs add an eye-catching dimension and personality to a home.

In the case of this house, the shutter detail is a subtle proclamation that this updated early 20th century house has character and personality, and is worth a peek inside. It was built in 1926 and through the years it was updated to suit modern living. In 1991 an addition gave the house a larger footprint, bringing the total square footage to 2,056. The addition houses the kitchen, family room and breakfast area, which are all open, one to the other.

Even after the addition was constructed the homeowners continued to make improvements to this six-room home. They have remodeled the kitchen and replaced windows. The roof was replaced about a decade ago and it has a high efficiency boiler/furnace, newer oil tank and newer hot water heater.

The house is in a great location, just under a mile from downtown and the Metro North train station. It is also within easy walking distance of Royle Elementary School. One unusual feature is the sidewalk in front of this house and several others in this neighborhood. The house sits on a largely level property of just over a third of an acre. Its attractive landscaping includes rhododendron and boxwood shrubs, perennial flowers, tall trees, and large rock outcroppings.

Belgium block lines one side of the driveway that leads to the one-car garage and a slate path to the covered front entrance marked by two columns. The front door is framed by sidelights and a fanlight transom topped with a keystone. Inside, a small foyer provides access to the formal living room, which has a red brick fireplace painted white, and to the formal dining room. The living room has a door to a den, which could also be used as a sunroom. It has three walls of casement windows, bead board ceiling, and a shelf for storage of board games, books, and electronics equipment. The dining room has two built-in corner china cabinets with decorative molding and sliding door to the wood deck, which sits between the house and garage.
