The holiday season is upon us! With Thanksgiving around the corner and a divisive election in the rearview mirror, millions of Americans expect to talk politics with friends and family members over the holiday, and more than a third say the idea of those conversations stresses them out.
According to an online survey conducted by ABC News and its partner SSRS, 45 percent of Americans foresee a side of political conversation with their turkey and cranberry sauce, and 38 percent said the idea of such talk is at least somewhat stressful, with 14 percent saying it is very stressful.
When asked to share one word to describe what they are most thankful for, the vast majority of respondents said “family,” followed by “life” and “health.” Also among the top 10 responses were “friends,” “Trump” and “Jesus.”
Glen Rock NJ, Thanksgiving Day 5K and Kids Fun Run in Glen Rock on Thanksgiving morning. It is going to be a wonderful family event and we are expecting a great turnout!
1. We are hosting the packet pick up in our Ridgewood store (11 N. Broad Street) for the three days leading up to Thanksgiving so it would be a great chance for the Ridgewood businesses to get involved and promote their brands/companies to the hundreds of runners that will be coming in to pick up their race packets and tshirts.
2. There is endless opportunity for the Ridgewood businesses to promote at the race.
3. Come out and run the race! There is a 5K (run/walk) and a Kids Fun Run. All levels are welcome to join in on the 5K. A lot of Ridgewood residents have already signed up but we really want to get the word out there that this fun family event is just around the corner.
4. Spread the word! As we all know, this is key to success so if people are busy Thanksgiving week and cannot participate, we would love to have everyone spread the word, hang posters in the stores, put lawn signs outside their stores/houses!

Santa Claus dropped by unexpectedly at a home on South Irving Street on Thursday afternoon where 1-year old Declan and his 5-year old sister Delia were having a Thanksgiving meal with their grandparents.
Declan was a slightly unnerved by the surprise visit and kept his distance, but Delia sat right down near Santa, and had a nice 15 minute conversation with the fat man from the North Pole.
Santa did not arrive empty handed; Declan was the recipient of a toy vacuum cleaner, and Delia found a Play Doh kit when she unwrapped her present.
Mr. Claus arrived in a bright red SUV, which he told Delia he uses on every day of the year except Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, and was gone in a flash 15 minutes after his arrival.
As he waved goodbye to Declan and Delia, Santa did reveal that retired Ridgewood Police Department Captain and former Ridgewood Mayor Keith D. Killion was the person who wrote the North Pole and requested Santa make an early visit to South Irving Street.
The five worst places to drive in the United States
Millions of people traveling for Thanksgiving will face daunting traffic problems that critics say have been magnified by Washington’s inability to move a long-term bill to pay for new highway projects.
With a nor’easter bearing down on the Eastern Seaboard this Thanksgiving, it’s expected to be an especially brutal few days on the road.
Congress hasn’t approved a long-term highway bill since 2005, and it’s become much more difficult to move legislation since then because of a variety of reasons, including the end of earmarks that directed money toward specific lawmaker-backed projects and a financial crisis and recession that made it tougher to move big-budget bills.
Business groups, labor unions and other players have pressed Congress since then to focus on infrastructure, but to little avail.
The crisis is getting worse in some ways, too, since the gas tax used to fund most highway improvements hasn’t been raised in decades and can no longer keep up with the need, according to advocates such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
1. Interstate 110 in Los Angeles
2. Interstate 80 in San Francisco
3. Interstate 35 in Austin, Texas
4. Interstate 678 in New York
The West Coast and Texas don’t have a monopoly on bad roads.
New York City ranked sixth on the INRIX traffic scorecard. It is also home to the worst road in the East Coast, according to Texas A&M in the form of a 3.1 mile stretch of highway running from New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport to the Bronx.
Known as Van Wyck Expressway, the road produced 690 hours of delays per mile and 1,086 wasted gallons of gasoline.
5. Interstate 95 north and south of Washington, D.C.
