Her latest stop was a health center in Jersey City Friday afternoon, where she talked with staff and later addressed concerns about the law.Although Obamacare survived that court challenge, this open enrollment - which ends Jan. 31st - dovetails with the presidential primary campaign.

Made by a handful of veterans, including three from Bergen County, each silkscreen and linocut design held meaning beyond the stories they told: in each, the paper — the texture fibrous, the edges deckled — was made out of military uniforms, including some of the artists' own.Mits..>> view originalSt
