Chris Christie singled out a few New Jersey residents he called heroes.  The governor called out the honored residents one at a time and asked them to stand up for recognition. The citizens were chosen to attend the ceremonies because of their community service, Christie said.Tony Kurdzuk/The Star-LedgerNewly sworn in Gov. Chris Christie waves to the crowd after taking the oath of office at the Trenton War Memorial this afternoon.”These folks are just a few examples of what New Jerseyans are all about,” he said. “When faced with tough problems, you choose hard work over giving up.
