Maybe the jquery code is not executed because the template is not in DOM. I dont know how your plugin works but often like with google maps the javascript is attached in the rendered-callback of the template.
<template name="home">
<p> HOME page! </p>
<img id="home" src="image.png"/>
</template>
Template.home.rendered({
$('#home, #chard').adipoli({
'startEffect' : 'normal',
'hoverEffect' : 'popout'
});
});
