Page A10 PRESS ON YOUR SIDE Roseanne Celic has never been able to go to ground zero. Her husband, Thomas, who worked for global insur- ance broker Marsh & McLennan, was 43 when he per- ished on Sept. 11, 2001, in the World Trade Centers North Tower. Every year since, Roseanne Celic, who lives in Staten Island, has found solace by visiting me- morials to the victim in the area. On Wednesday, she was taking photos at the Mon- mouth County memorial, high atop Mount Mitchill in Atlantic Highlands. I had never seen this one before, said Celic, 54, as she read the names of the 147 Monmouth County resi- dents who died 13 years ago. I wanted to see it. Her boyfriend, Don Griffin, has a friend who lives nearby in Keansburg who told him about the memorial. It features a sculpture of an eagle in flight, clasping a piece of twisted World Trade Center steel in its talons. TOM SPADER/STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER The memorial in front of the Holmdel town hall on Crawfords Corner Road is one of dozens throughout Monmouth and Ocean counties honoring victims of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. 9/11 THURSDAY 09.11.14 A GANNETT COMPANY THE FIGHT CONTINUES Survivors find solace at local Sept. 11 memorials By Jean Mikle @jeanmikle The memorials are some place I can go and feel a connection to him.

Obama told congressional leaders he wants to take action against the jihadist group known as the Islamic State. His plan includes more U.S. airstrikes, counter- terrorism actions, aid from other nations and military training and assistance to moderates in Iraq and Syria. Lorraine Arias-Beliveau of Barnegat, whose broth- er, Adam Arias, died on the 84th floor of the World Trade Center, was angered by the plan. They have been dragging their heels and theres still no resolve to what happened here. No one has held these people accountable.

VOLUME 135 NUMBER 218 SINCE 1879 ADVICE D7 CLASSIFIED E1 COMICS D6 LOCAL A3 MOVIES D2 OBITUARIES A12 OPINION A15 SPORTS C1 WEATHER C10 YOUR MONEY A10 When Dino Mangiero passed on offers from Ohio State and Maryland to play at Rutgers in the mid-1970s, it was because he wanted a place where a New York City kid whose high school team was winless his senior year could play right away. My freshman year (1976) we went 11-0, but we didnt play anybody, re- called Mangiero, a defensive lineman. We beat a bunch of Ivy League schools and UMass. It was not big-time Division I football. But then my second year we played Penn State and you could see coach (Frank) Burns was building the program. By the time the 2007 class showed up on campus with the likes of left tackle Anthony Davis, linebacker Manny Abreu and cornerback Mason Robinson, 4-star prospects were the order of the day, with a series of highly-rated recruiting classes loading the Scarlet Knights roster with potential NFL talent. Kids were coming to Rutgers because we proved we were a team to be reckoned with, said linebacker STEPHEN EDELSON Rutgers-Penn State game will be another defining moment See EDELSON, Page A9 OBAMA READY TO ORDER SYRIA AIRSTRIKES PAGE 1B
