Police: Teacher, student had more than 200 ‘after hours’ calls

By Andrew Martins Managing Editor

Kenneth Shindle, a 28-yearold man and Hillsborough High School teacher, and a 17-yearold female student were found to have shared more than 200 “after hours phone calls” in a span of five months, according to complaint filed in Middlesex County Superior Court.

Shindle faces two second degree counts of endangering the welfare of a child after local and county detectives began investigating a “possible dispute” between the teacher and student that

Veteran honored with street dedication

allegedly took place on the front lawn of his Plainsboro home.

Following their investigation, Detectives Timothy McMahon of the Plainsboro Police Department and Mark Morris of the Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office determined that the teacher and his student had been engaged in the alleged inappropriate conduct from Jan. 1 until May 7.

According to an affidavit of probable clause filed by the authorities, the English teacher and unnamed juvenile would also spend time together at Shindle’s home without supervision.

During one of those visits on

May 6, the complaint claims that both Shindle and the student admitted to “kissing on [his] couch.”

The new information comes more than a week after the teacher was charged with two second degree counts of endangering the welfare of a child; one count for engaging in sexual conduct that would “impair or debauch the morals of the child” and one count for causing harm to the child that made her “an abused or neglected child.”

Though officials at the Hillsborough Township Public School District declined to comment on Shindle’s arrest or his current

employment status at the high school, they have gone on record to say that the district was “working in full cooperation with law enforcement.”

Shindle is currently suspended from Hillsborough High School, where he had worked for five years and had earned tenure status.

Authorities said Shindle is currently out of the Middlesex County Jail after the Middlesex Prosecutor’s Office did not file to detain him following a court hearing last week. The courts did, however, order him to be monitored on a weekly basis.

Congratulations Hillsborough High School Class of 2018

By Samantha Brandbergh Correspondent

Nearly 35 years after he was killed in Lebanon, plans to honor veteran and Hillsborough High School graduate James J. Langon IV have become a reality.

On June 13, friends and family of Langon and community members gathered in the Hillsborough Municipal Garden of Honor to remember the local man who lost his life serving the country, and to announce the street named after him — LCpl Langon Way. Mayor Gloria McCauley said the road will be off Amwell Road West, across from Pleasantville Road.

After graduating from Hillsborough High School in 1981, Langon traded in his cap and gown for a US Marine Corps fatigues.

He then went off to basic training in Parris Island, South Carolina, before moving on to advanced training for the Marine Corps. He ultimately chose to be a cook, as he had dreams of entering the Culinary Institute of New York when he was discharged from service.

Following his training, Langon was assigned to the First Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment, and on May 11, 1983 — his 20th birthday — his unit was reassigned and shipped out to Beirut International Airport in Lebanon, where the unit was deployed with a subordinate U.S. 24th Marine Amphibious Unit.

“These units were part of a multinational peacekeeping force deployed during the Lebanese Civil War,” Hillsborough’s MeSee LANGON, Page 3A

Murphy makes box turtles the state reptile

By Philip Sean Curran Staff Writer

The endangered bog turtle became the official reptile of New Jersey, a designation that Gov. Phil Murphy visited school children on June 18 to sign into law.

Before a crowd of school children and others, Murphy sat inside Riverside Elementary School in Princeton to sign legislation designating the tiny turtle of all of 4 inches as New Jersey’s first state reptile.

“We have to look out for our environment,” the governor said along side some of the state lawmakers who sponsored the legislation to recognize the bog turtle.

“If we don’t protect the bog turtle

now, then someday we may have a New Jersey without any bog turtles. And we do not want that.”

The bog turtle, designated as a threatened species by the federal government, can be found in 12 New Jersey counties, including Mercer, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Previously, the turtle had been found in most of the state. New Jersey has listed the turtle as an endangered species since the 1970s.

“The greatest threats to the bog turtle are the loss, degradation and fragmentation of its habitat from wetland alteration, development, pollution, invasive species and natural vegetation succession,” the federal government has said. Another threat to

the turtle, the government said, is the “illegal wildlife trade.”

Murphy came to the school where the impetus behind recognizing the bog turtle started.

Before the governor spoke, Jamie Acevedo, a Riverside fifthgrader, explained the history of how students in Princeton decided to take matters into their own hands to make it happen. He said a science teacher at Riverside, Mark Eastburn, had come back from a workshop in North Carolina and told students that the box turtle, which Riverside has a population of, is that state’s official reptile.

“When students realized New Jersey did not have a state reptile of its own, we all decided this was

a matter that needed our immediate attention,” Jamie said.

Students at Riverside and Community Park School urged the state to act, with some even testifying before state Senate and Assembly committees on the issue earlier this year.

State. Sen. Kip Bateman (RMercer, Middlesex, Somerset and Hunterdon) sponsored legislation to give the bog turtle its new designation. The bill passed with bipartisan support, something Bateman in his remarks highlighted at a time when the state is facing a possible government shutdown with a deadline fast approaching to pass a budget.

Langon Continued from Page 1A morial Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Post #8371 Commander Tom Cellilli said.

At around 6 a.m. on Oct. 23, 1983, Langon was busy preparing breakfast in a building adjacent to the barracks housing his unit.

Roughly 20 minutes later, six truck bombs struck separate buildings, housing U.S. and French members of the multinational force. The attack killed 299 American and French servicemen, including Langon.

The truck bombs, Cellilli said, contained explosives equivalent to 12,000 pounds of TNT. “The final U.S. toll was 220 Marines, 18 Navy and three Army service personnel. The simultaneous truck bomb explosion nearby

killed 58 French soldiers,” Cellilli said. “It was the largest single-day loss of life to Marines since the World War II battle of Iwo Jima. It was also the single worst military loss for France since the end of the Algerian War.” That day, Langon’s mother Carol Schak — upon returning home from work — was met with a Marine captain and enlisted Marine at her doorstep.

“I don’t want to see you here,” she said she told the captain.

“We don’t want to be here,” he responded.

Langon is buried in Ocean County Memorial Park in Toms River, Ocean County.

In 2012, the Hillsborough Memorial VFW Post began their efforts to commemorate Langon and the

service he provided while in the Marines.

On March 25, 2015, the township committee approved a resolution recognizing Langon for his military service, according to Cellilli.

“The resolution approved LCpl Langon Way as a street name and added to the approved road list to be used as a street name when next needed,” he added. “The resolution was forwarded to the township engineering department, who had oversight responsibilities.”

Cellilli began working extensively with VFW Post Adjutant Joe Ortu to locate Langon’s family members.

“Our goal was two-fold.

One was to notify them of the approved street naming resolution, and the other was to have them approve

of our endeavors on behalf of their son,” Cellilli said.

While the pair were able to find Schak — who had moved to Florida with her husband George — they were unsuccessful in locating his father. Schak was unable to make the street naming ceremony, but Langon’s brother Tristan was present.

“It’s a great honor to know that he’s still being remembered, that the people of the township still remember,” Tristan said. “All the support from people coming out — it’s really heartwarming that they did this.”

Numerous members of the Hillsborough High School Class of ’81 were in attendance, including Hillsborough Township Director of Department of Public Works Rich Resavy, who

met Langon while playing football with him in middle school.

Langon, Resavy said, had an “edge” to him when they were in school together.

“He wanted to be the tough guy,” he said. “As smart as he was and with everything he could do — he was a great musician and he was a great student — I think he felt like he had to do the football thing. He didn’t recognize just how great he really was.”

Resavy showed the crowd the original newspaper article from the Hillsborough Beacon about Langon’s death, as well as their eighth grade yearbook. The quote Langon left in the “class will” was an “eerie” one, Resavy said. It read that he was leaving a teach-

er a bomb shelter, in case of communist attack.

“It’s that reminder that you’re 20 years old, you don’t normally go through these things,” Resavy said.

“It was all new and it’s one of those moments that’s right at the top of your thought process your whole life.”

Resavy concluded his speech by addressing Langon personally.

“Jim, if you’re listening, from all of your friends at Hillsborough High School Class of ’81 and others, thank you for joining the U.S. Marine Corps and helping to defend our country,” he said. “We are all very proud of you and are saddened to this day about the way you lost your life.

You will always be a hero to us.”

Turtles Continued from Page 1A “It shows that you can work together, Republicans and Democrats,” Bateman said at the ceremony. “And bog turtles are not partisan.

They’re bipartisan.”

Another student speaker thanked lawmakers for passing the turtle bill.

“We are very grateful Democrats and Republicans can come together and support this,” said Jeremy Wachtel, a Riverside fifthgrader.

A parent of one of the students, speaking after the bill signing, touched on how her son and his classmates had worked for the legislation.

“It’s emotional, because it’s a great memory for the kids and a great achieve-

Eastburn wore a green tie with turtles on it for the occasion. During the bill

signing, Murphy gave him one of the pens he used to make the bog turtle designation state law.

“The fact that we’re actually helping highlight

a critically endangered species in the state that wouldn’t get attention otherwise,” Eastburn said afterward, “I mean, that’s really the greatest thing.”

Like to jog outside? ‘Plog’ instead and keep NJ clean Have you seen unusual groups of joggers and runners breaking stride to pick up litter from the ground?

They’re “ploggers,” part of a fitness trend that migrated to the United States from Sweden. “Plogging” combines the Swedish term “plocka upp” - meaning to pick up - with jogging. Ploggers are an increasingly common sight in Scandinavia and Europe.

Here in the United States, plogging is now catching on among runners, joggers and fitness walkers who are tired of seeing their favorite parks, preserves and beaches marred by litter. Ploggers carry trash bags and scoop up items carelessly discarded by others.

Timothy Chew of Hoboken learned about plogging earlier this year from a friend’s social media post and was immediately taken with the idea. “I thought to myself, “You know what, I’m going to do that,’ ” he said.

Chew organized plogging runs in Hoboken parks on May 26 and June 9 and posted them on the Meetup website. He also recruited members of Free & Fit, a physical and spiritual fitness group he leads.

The first plogging event immediately improved the appearance of the Hoboken waterfront. “We picked up 12 ManvilleNews.2.736x4.5.StaffBox.indd

bags of trash between the four of us,” Chew reported.

Among the common items they found were plastic straws, coffee cups, cigarette butts, candy wrappers, diapers, snack packaging and old sheets of yellowed newspaper.

“It’s exciting to be doing it, and I think others will follow suit,” said Chew said, adding that the plogging runs were well received by onlookers. “Some parts of the park looked like they had not been cleaned up in a long time.”

The second Hoboken plogging event yielded another 10 bags of litter, and the next is planned for Saturday, July 7, at 10 a.m., meeting at the Jefferson Coffee Shop on Washington Street.

“It’s always an incredible opportunity to serve the community we love and live in,” said Jenn Santiago, another plogger in the Hoboken group. “Plogging has many great benefits that include an intense workout, the opportunity to create community with others, and beautify the place we call home.”

Chew also led a plogging walk for a youth group in Harrington Park. He said the kids alternated between picking up litter and having fun in the park’s playgrounds. “I think they really did appreciate the need to do this and got a good feeling from it,” he said.

Depending on how much trash is on the ground, plog-

ging can be fast or slow.

While plogging causes joggers to slow down, all the bending, squatting, lunging and lifting burns calories and works different muscle groups.

In fact, the Swedish-based fitness app Lifesum, which helps users track plogging activity, claims that a half-hour of picking up trash while jogging burns 288 calories for the average person, compared with the 235 burned by jogging alone.

If you like to run, jog or walk outdoors, you know how discouraging it is to see trash littering a beautiful landscape. Don’t get mad … do like the Swedes do and plog!

Plogging is new enough in this country that there’s no website devoted to the activity. But if you want to find out more, check social media outlets – especially Instagram and search the hashtag #plogging.

Google launches college search feature Google has formally immersed itself in the college search process. It announced, just last week, that it would start showcasing important statistics to help students and parents who need relevant and accurate data regarding the colleges and universities in which they are interested.

For example, a Google search of Princeton University highlights that the average annual cost, after aid, is $9,000.

Many families assume that the cost of attending this elite institution is well out of their price range, not realizing that Princeton’s need-based aid dramatically alters the cost-ofattendance. For example, the average cost of attendance is $7,000 for students with an annual household income of $48,000 to $75,000, and $18,000 for those with a household income of $75,000 to $110,000.

Other featured information, secured from a Google search, includes a university’s acceptance rate, graduation rate, typical SAT test scores, and rankings both on a national and international level.

Google secures its data from the U.S. Department of Education’s College Scorecard and Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS).

Google is seeking to build on the success of its job search that launched last year. According to Google, its job search has already helped tens of millions of job seek-

ers, across twelve countries, find the right jobs that match their unique needs. Since the path to success often begins even earlier - with selecting the right college – Google is hoping to dominate the college search market and take another step closer toward becoming the one-stop source for all information.

Google’s immersion in the college search process comes at a time when both Facebook and LinkedIn are trying to get colleges to use their services for student recruiting. Facebook is seeking to do more video advertising on mobile devices, but is targeting colleges that attract adult undergraduate students or those seeking masters and professional degrees. LinkedIn, too, is focusing primarily on the postgraduate market. So the audience of high school students headed for college is on Google’s radar and data on more and more colleges should be appearing on their website as the summer progresses.

Susan Alaimo is the founder and director of SAT Smart in Hillsborough that has been offering PSAT, SAT, and ACT preparation courses, as well as private tutoring by Ivy League educated instructors, for more than 25 years.

2018 Princeton Parklet Opens

he 2018 Princeton Parklet has opened. Returning to its original location in front of Small World Coffee on Witherspoon Street in Princeton, the Arts Council of Princeton had a successful launch of its third parklet on Saturday, June 9.

Parklets are essentially public seating venues that use curbside parking spaces as its base of operation. Each parklet has a distinct design based off of what the host town or city deems necessary. The Princeton Parklets have always been works of interactive art.

Debuting in 2015, outside of Small World Coffee, the first Princeton Parklet came about when Princeton mayor, Liz Lempert, and Arts Council of Princeton Director, Maria Evans collaborated to make a free and open public space out of unused parking spaces.

The first parklet featured couches sculpted from elm wood, tree stump planters and stools, hanging rocking chairs as well as hanging pods to sit in. Each year the parklets are open from June to around mid-November.

Due to a lack of funding, there was no parklet in 2016, while last year’s parklet was installed in front of jaZams in Palmer Square. The 2017 parklet was an interactive ‘energy playground,’ which brought out many children.

“After the great experience we had last year with the jaZams’ Energy Parklet, and all of the energy features we built, this

year’s parklet will be more about relaxing with friends, unplugging for a brief time, and just enjoying the design of the structure,” said Maria Evans, Artistic Director of the Arts Council of Princeton and curator of the project.

The 2018 structure is the same as the previous year’s, which uses solar, wind and hydro-power. The structure also uses water-powered cell phone chargers.

Both structures were designed and built by Princeton architect, Joseph Hobart Weiss. Weiss added some new features to this year’s parklet including a green roof to “serve as an educational venue to teach the importance of water, soil and plants in our urban environment.”

Weiss noted at last year’s parklet opening that he draws inspiration for his endeavors from the place and site of where each of his projects will take place.

Sitting in front of its original location of Small World Coffee, Artistic Director, Evans has great praise for the host of her project.

“Jessica Durrie, owner of Small World Coffee, is such a great host for the parklet,” said Evans. “She and her amazing team make sure the parklet stays clean and wellkept for the public. I’m certain this will be another great year for this beloved public art project.”

The 2018 Parklet’s address is 14 Witherspoon Street, which is located in front of Small World Coffee.

COVER STORY

by Kelly Giuliano

Kelsey Theatre to present ‘The Merry Wives of Windsor’ W

illiam Shakespeare - medieval bard, classic playwright and Elizabethan comedian - has been regarded as one of the greatest composers of the English language.

“The Merry Wives of Windsor,” a Shakespearean comedy that has received the brunt of criticism for more than three centuries, follows the story of a recurring rogue that has been incorporated amidst numerous of The Bard’s literary works.

Theater company, Shakespeare 70, will showcase “The Merry Wives of Windsor” on June 22, 23, 29, 30 and July 1 at the Kelsey Theatre, which is located at Mercer County Community College in West Windsor.

Shakespeare 70, now closing in on its 49th year of production, is a Ewing-based theater dedicated toward producing contemporary and classic plays.

Janet Quartarone, assistant director of the “The Merry Wives of Windsor,” said the premise of Shakespeare’s late 16thcentury comedy centers on the happenings in the colorful Elizabethan town of Windsor, England.

Falstaff, the play’s protagonist Quartarone described as an ageing, overweight knight who is “down on his luck,” is looking to obtain “a financial advantage” after attempting to court two married women he hopes to receive money from.

After Falstaff sends identical love letters to the women in an effort to win over their already-spoken-for hearts, Quartarone said, the women decide to toy with the newcomer after they immediately forecast the rogue’s deceitful intentions toward his transparent effort to make a quick buck.

“These are fun-loving, respectable women who have control over their husband’s wallets,” Quartarone said.

For the women’s own amusement, she continued, the merry wives pretend to fall for Falstaff’s romantic advances, and end

Shakespeare 70 will showcase William Shakespeare’s “The Merry Wives of Windsor” at the Kelsey Theatre at Mercer County Community College in West Windsor on June 22-23, 29-30 and July 1. up playing humble pranks on the aging knight throughout the play’s entirety.

Quartarone described the classic performance as “playful and whimsical.”

“What you see is what you get,” Quartarone said in response to the infamously “inferior” Shakespearean work, as the play is most prominently known.

“The Merry Wives of Windsor” has been critically reviewed as The Bard’s weakest play due to the absence of substance within the context of Shakespeare’s words.

The comedic basis of the play is exempt from aspects of Shakespeare’s routinely inquisitive, rather thought-provoking themes, which are seen throughout his other works of romance, power and tragedy.

Quartarone described Shakespeare’s

works of comedy as “a different kind of animal.”

In a statement administered by Shakespeare 70, The Merry Wives of Windsor has said to have been “hailed for dramatizing the emergence of a new middle class, eschewing pretension and aristocratic authority, while championing female autonomy and the power of love to break down class distinctions.”

Dale Simon, who plays Falstaff in the upcoming production of “The Merry Wives of Windsor,” brings humor and endearment to an otherwise timeless role, Quartarone said.

“He (Simon) strove to make this character loveable. He really understands Shakespeare’s voice and enjoyed finding the nuance in this character,” Quartarone

said.

Falstaff, who is said to be one of Shakespeare’s greatest comedic characters, has also appeared in the plays Henry IV and Henry IV Part II. Quartarone said it was Queen Elizabeth who (allegedly) presented a request to Shakespeare himself asking that Falstaff appear in a comedy, rather than tale of England’s history.

Aside from the central storyline pertaining to a rogue’s insufficient romantic advances, the subplots themselves intersect within the tale of the recurring Falstaff, Quartarone said. “This is a very silly play. The characters have their own idiosyncracies.”

With an opening night dating to 1602, the Shakespearean saga, as some might prefer to call it, has been produced and remastered over a period of centuries.

In order to incorporate an individual take on an otherwise classic performance, Quartarone said, the “playfullness” of the performance is what is going to make the modern-day production memorable.

After toying with different ways in which to give the performance new life, Quartarone said she wanted to experiment with different notions of transparency she said would add to the overall exuberance of The Bard’s classic, comedic production.

Those in attendance will be able to see the transitions between individual scenes, as well as the play’s characters entering and exiting the stage, Quartarone said. Attendees will even be able to sit on the stage, where actors will playfully engage with those who choose to experience an up close and personal performance.

“We really wanted to people up this play,” Quartarone said.

Count Basie collection to be displayed at Rutgers in Newark

T

he collection of jazz icon, William J. “Count” Basie Jr., is now in the possession of Rutgers University in Newark.

The Institute of Jazz Studies (IJS), which is located on the Rutgers campus in Newark, announced this past week that it will serve as the site for the collection of Count Basie.

Count Basie, a nine-time Grammy winner and first African American to win the award in 1958, is globally recognized for his work in jazz. The pianist, organist, bandleader and composer is still a recognized figure in American culture and music still, today, 34 years following his death in 1984.

“It is only fitting that the Count Basie Collection will be housed at the Rutgers Institute of Jazz Studies,” said Wayne Winborne, executive director of IJS. “The IJS has been long recognized as the world’s foremost archives and research facility devoted to jazz. Moreover, unbeknownst to many people, Count Basie was a native New Jerseyan, born and raised approximately 40 miles south of IJS in Red Bank.”

“We will be starting with the paper based materials, like photos and things that go in boxes and are normal every day materials,” said Adriana Cuervo, the associate director of the IJS. “From there we will move on to artifacts and larger materials, like furniture. That’s how we plan to arrange and describe materials. We are still looking for a home, and physical space where we can slowly chip away and go through the process.”

The Count Basie Collection, which includes over 1,000 artifacts. Including Basie’s pianos, Hammond organ, photos, correspondence, concert programs, business records and press clippings, will eventually be placed on display but the IJS officials have not yet set a date when it will be open for the public.

The collection will also display Count Basie’s clothes, accessories, scrapbooks

Picture provided by Rutgers University-Newark, Institute of Jazz Studies

and some audiovisual material as well.

The Collection will also consist of many belongings from Catherine Basie, who was William’s wife and life partner for over 40 years.

“Although the materials cover the entirety of Basie’s lifetime, the collection represents the latter years of Basie’s life and career particularly well,” said Winborne. “Including a large number of accolades, Grammy awards, honorary degrees and proclamations.”

Dan Morgenstern, the Executive Director Emeritus of the IJS, looked back on Count Basie and the times they shared together.

“The first time I got to really see Count Basie in action was when I was privileged to be at a recording session with the band,” said, Morgenstern. “He had a marvelous sense on how to utilize space and time. He was a wonderful person with absolutely no side, he was really a regular guy, and in spite of his great acclaim, he was just a really warm and friendly person.”

“We are extremely excited, grateful and humbled to be chosen to be stewards of the Basie legacy in the form of this collection,” said Winborne. “We are also happy to have a New Jersey native, come home, where his life and legacy can be celebrated locally and shared globally.”

The Count Basie Center for the Arts in Red Bank is named after the legendary musician.

Mercer County salutes police officers in annual affair

I

spotted Princeton Police Chief, Nick Sutter and two of his officers Detective, Adam Basatemur and Detective Sergeant, Ben Gering in Hamilton Township last week in the midst of a shoot – with cameras, not guns, pointed at them.

They were among the 13 police officers taking part in a celebratory, rather than crisis, situation, during which the officers listened to words of appreciation for their acts of selfless bravery.

An estimated 210 guests attended The 200 Club of Mercer County’s Annual Luncheon on Wednesday, June 13, at the Stone Terrace in Hamilton Square to pay tribute to the law enforcement officers being honored for their bravery, skills, character, determination, and unwavering commitment to the health and well-being of the county’s citizens.

The particular incident that inspired the honor for the Princeton detectives, along with two other law enforcement colleagues- New Jersey State Police Lieutenant, Tom Wieczerak and New Jersey State Police Sergeant, Joe Itri, remains an engraved image on my psyche, because it occurred a little too close for my comfort.

It took place a block from where I live, right next to my favorite institutional hangout – the Princeton Public Library, and a block away from Starbucks and Small World Coffee, where I derive all of my sustenance.

Loose Ends Continued from Page 12B

As described by Princeton Police Chief, Sutter, on the evening of Jan. 24, Princeton Police Department Detective Sergeant, Gering and Detective, Basatemur, located a vehicle belonging to a suspect wanted in connection with a homicide in New York.

The vehicle was parked on the top level of a downtown Princeton parking garage. The search of the area began in response to an alert sent by the New Jersey State Police.

As the detectives approached the car to investigate, a male, identified as the wanted suspect suddenly ran from the car and jumped up on the parking garage wall, five stories above ground level.

The officers made contact with the suspect who was now in a crouched position on the wall of the parking garage ready to jump. They began to negotiate with the suspect, when New Jersey State Police Lieutenant, Wieczerak and Detective Sergeant, Itri arrived and assisted in the negotiations.

After an hour of negotiations in frigid temperatures, they eventually convinced the suspect to come down from the ledge. They continued to negotiate with the suspect in an attempt to get his surrender peacefully.

As negotiations broke down, Sergeant Itri was able to take the suspect to the ground, in order to prevent him from fleeing or harming himself. The detectives and troopers took the suspect into custody.

This suspect was wanted for a

An estimated 210 guests attended The 200 Club of Mercer County’s Annual Luncheon on Wednesday, June 13, at the Stone Terrace in Hamilton Square to pay tribute to the law enforcement officers being honored for their bravery, determination, and unwavering commitment to the health and well-being of the county’s citizens. “particularly heinous murder. If not for the actions of these officers and troopers, this individual may still be in the community or he may have successfully committed suicide,” said Chief Sutter.

The 200 Club of Mercer County every year presents The R. Peter Hodge Valor Award to an individual who has committed an act of bravery, beyond the call of duty, and at imminent personal risk to their own life and safety.

The club named the award in honor of its late founding board member Princeton resident Peter Hodge, renowned for a life devoted to helping others and for “his dedication and support of all first responders in our community….These honorees on the scene at these incidents, like so many safety and rescue personnel, put their own lives in danger to protect others,” said Greg Blair, president of the 200 Club of Mercer County.

The actions of our officers on that day in January, said Chief Sutter, “exemplified the tenants of this award. They acted heroically and exceptionally to save a person’s life and bring a violent criminal to justice. Their actions represent the

work that our Princeton Police Officers do each and every day. I am thankful to work alongside such selfless, morally strong and professional people every day I come to work.”

Nearly 40 years ago, The 200 Club of Mercer County, which costs $200 to join, was founded to provide financial assistance to the families of public safety and rescue personnel who have lost their lives in the line of duty. This includes the police officers (state, county, and municipal), correction officers, fire fighters, and rescue squad technicians of Mercer County. Crucial to its mission is the celebration of those first responders who have exhibited extraordinary courage and bravery under difficult or hazardous conditions.

This year seven police officers received the R. Peter Hodge Valor Award, and six members of the Mercer County Special Task Force received a special recognition.

Keynote speaker at the lunch was renowned Princeton resident - New Jersey radio (NJ101.5 FM), television (FOX TV affiliates), and comedy club personality Bill Spadea.

In addition to the police officers

involved in the Princeton incident, the other recipients of the 2018 Valor Awards were: Trenton Police Officer, Freddy Jimenez; NJ state Police Detective, Rasheed Joaquin; and New Jersey State Police Sergeant, Curtis Sand.

The 200 Club also presented a Special Recognition Award to the six officers of the Mercer County Task Force, who met gunfire, when they attempted to serve an arrest warrant - situation that led to a dramatic and life-threatening 36-hour standoff.

The officers involved were: Mercer County Prosecutor’s Office Detective, Anthony Abarno; New Jersey State Parole Board Officers, Timothy Healy and Barry Volkert; Sheriff’s Detectives, William Perez, Joseph Tuccillo and Steven Niederer.

Mr. Spadea, described by Club President Gregory Blair as a “tireless advocate on behalf of law enforcement,” every Friday morning on his 101.5 FM radio show highlights a member of local law enforcement as part of his regular #BlueFriday segment.

He told the first responders “you have a voice (in Bill Spadea) that understands how difficult, how challenging your job is….You run towards gun fire, not away from it; you have incredible courage and integrity. Young people, in particular, and people of all ages need to better understand and appreciate what you selflessly do for others … My job is to broadcast continually your value… As long as I have a microphone, you have an advocate.”

Top 5 James Bond Movie Villains

By Lori Acken, ReMIND Magazine

W

hat would Ian Fleming’s MI6 agent James Bond be without those memorable baddies to battle?

Just a dapper guy with a tux, great gadgets, cool cars and Judi Dench’s M to keep him in line. Though 007 dodged dangers dealt by more than 100 sketchy souls throughout 26 films (and counting!), some have proved much more memorable than others. With a roster that long and colorful — and a fandom that spans generations and the globe — how folks prefer their Bond nemeses is as unique as the villains themselves. Maybe you’re partial to a creepycool physical abnormality (you with your robot hands, Dr.

No) or an ultra-extravagant lair (your mountaintop manse and volcano, Blofeld). Or maybe you’re more about quality mano a mano with Bond — or a stylish means to a kill.

Since we relish all of it, these are our picks for Bond villain infamy.

Auric Goldfinger Goldfinger (1964) Where do we start with the evildoer whose very name means “containing gold”? How about the fun fact that Orson Welles demanded too large a paycheck to play the golfing, gold-smuggling menace, so German actor Gert Fröbe stepped in (and, even though he knew just two phrases of English, completely owned the role). Or the part where the guy loves his gold so much that he decides to irradiate — but not destroy — the contents of Fort Knox with an atomic bomb to make his own glittering stockpile worth even more (a swerve from the Goldfinger novel). Throw in a host of other inventive kill tactics (toxic gas here, a lethal laser there and, of course, being smothered with gold), a henchman who could claim his own spot as a top Bond villain in the bowler-throwing Oddjob, and the most famous line in all of Bond-dom (“No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die!”) and we have ourselves a portly, dastardly bad guy bar none.

Ernst Stavro Blofeld From Russia With Love (1963), Thunderball (1965), You Only Live Twice (1967), On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969), Diamonds Are Forever (1971), Never Say Never Again (1983) and Spectre (2015) A baddie so brilliant he was played by six different actors (Christoph Waltz, Charles Gray, Max von Sydow, Anthony Dawson, Donald Pleasence, Telly Savalas) and sent up in Mike Myers’ Austin Powers film franchise, the SPECTRE chief is inarguably Bond’s chief nemesis — dispatching most of Bond’s other tormentors to take him down, and sometimes dispatching them completely if the mission failed. Blofeld’s ability to change his appearance and his temperament made the role a cinematic playground for a variety of actors to leave their mark on the Bond franchise, which some — Pleasence, Savalas and Gray in particular — did to great effect.

Scaramanga The Man With the Golden Gun (1974) Fleming’s cousin by marriage, Christopher Lee really wanted to play Dr. No, but got no for an answer — which ultimately worked out well. The titular “man with the golden gun” proved a perfect fit for the horror movie vet, who embodied the high-priced assassin in a way that thrilled the

book series purists. Planning to rule the world by harnessing the power of the sun (the U.S. oil and energy crisis was in full swing at the time) and encamped at a futuristic island lair purchased with his a-mil-a-kill asking price, Scaramanga had it all for Bond fans — a great gimmick, cool digs, a major challenge for Bond, and an equally scary henchman in the pint-sized terror Nick Nack, played with relish by a pre-Fantasy Island Hervé Villechaize.

Le Chiffre Casino Royale (2006) Though Casino Royale was Fleming’s very first Bond novel — making Le Chiffre the very first Bond villain — it took until 2006 for the blood-weeping, poker-playing tormentor to appear on the big screen in the form of Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen. Chilly, scary and heartless — his uniquely savage torture tactic is one of the Bond series’ most memorable — “The Cypher” made for the perfect villain to usher in the Daniel Craig era of Bond films. And though we tend to prefer our Bond baddies with grand plans for world domination and an equally jaw-dropping lair, that fearsome eye and his place as Fleming’s first — along with the part where no real Bondflick fan feels good about lounging in a wicker chair — earn the greedy, dirty banker his spot on our list.

Rosa Klebb From Russia With Love (1963) Ya gotta love a gal with career goals — even if said career is nefarious business. The head of operations for SMERSH (a blend of two Russian words meaning “death to spies”) in Bond creator Ian Fleming’s novels, Lotte Lenya’s Klebb defected to the even more treacherous SPECTRE (that one’s “Special Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion”) in From Russia With Love. Klebb’s plot to steal the Lektor decoder that both SMERSH and MI6 covet was only undone when Bond bedded her comely corporal Tatiana, who takes out her boss before Klebb can fell 007 with poison-and-blade-spiked shoes. Leave it to a fatal femme to sport some literally killer shoes — and had Bond himself actually taken out the scariest dame in the Bond film catalog, we would have moved her further up the list.

What About Jaws?

Even folks who don’t watch Bond films recognize Richard Kiel’s towering, steel-chompered bad guy, who was such a hit in 1977’s The Spy Who Loved Me that producer Albert R. “Cubby” Broccoli brought him back for Moonraker a few years later. Though Jaws easily outshone his boss Karl Stromberg and had a seriously entertaining knack for survival, we’re docking villain points (but tipping our hat, just the same) to the fact that Jaws found love, redemption — and his voice! — by the end of Moonraker. Well, here’s to your heart, Jaws. But we liked you better bad.

Fighting crime, and family time

By Paul Hall

I

t’s been 14 years since we had a film featuring the first family of superheroes, but they are back and ready for action in the new animated film Incredibles 2 from director Brad Bird.

Supers, as the superheroes are known, have been shoved underground. There is no place for them in society as the people are tired of the destruction they leave in their wake. The Incredibles just want to continue their mission to help those less fortunate, but when the superhero program is shut down once and for all, they must start a new life.

Enter Winston Deavor (Bob Odenkirk) and his sister Evelyn (Catherine Keener).

The two want nothing more than to return supers back to public acceptance. To do so, they enlist the talents of Elastigirl (Holly Hunter), mainly because she doesn’t leave PR nightmares behind like the messes that follow in the wake of Mr. Incredible (Craig T. Nelson). So Elastigirl is off to work to save the supers while Bob Parr (Mr. Incredible’s alter ego) watches the kids. But who has the easier job? And will they succeed?

Bob is left to manage moody teenager Violet (Sarah Vowell), speedy youngster Dash (Huck Milner), who is struggling with math, and baby Jack-Jack, who the family is just realizing might have a series of powers of his own. And Bob has never been the stay-at-home-dad type, but he must take over while Helen, better known as Elastigirl, is off trying to save the world

from the evil Screenslaver.

Incredibles 2 provides us with a longoverdue sequel to the immensely popular original film, and the good news is, despite the 14-year time gap, it still works.

The story of the film provides us with more of a narrative around growing up with your family than it does with crimefighting. Sure, we get some classic action sequences, but where the film shines is in the familial-relations category.

The best sequences in the film focus around Jack-Jack’s growth and how the family handles it. Violet’s relationship that starts and quickly fizzles (thanks to a memory wipe of the boy she is to go on a date with) also finds a way to entertain while dealing with the real issue of adolescence for teenagers. Great topics and a great voice cast combine to produce yet another solid film.

I was only let down by some of the animation, which felt almost unfinished compared to the depth present in the bulk of the story. I know there was probably a purpose for this, but at first glance it was distracting and seemed grossly out of place.

I’ll fight crime any time with this first family of superheroes — just don’t make me babysit Jack-Jack.

Cell: 908-391-8396 | Email: donnamurray@comcast.net | www.donnamurrayrealestate.com

Q

. Tell us about yourself.

A. I grew up in a small town called Silver Creek,

which is in the western section of Chautauqua County, NY, an hour past Buffalo on Lake Erie. I’m still a diehard fan of the Buffalo Bills. I then worked as a flight attendant for American Airlines for 18 years, traveling the world, before going into Real Estate.

Q

. Tell us about your family.

A. My husband Tom works for American Airlines

as a 777 Captain Check Airman. He recently had the honor of serving as one of the four captains who flew Pope Francis during his U.S. visit. We have three children, who attended St. Paul’s School in Princeton and Notre Dame High School (’09, ’11, ’13) in Lawrenceville. Jonathan graduated Rutgers Engineering program and works for TD Securities, Abigail is a grad student at Rider going for a Masters in Clinical Mental Health, and Laurel is graduating Seton Hall in May 2017 and continuing there in the fall for grad school.

Q

. What do you like to do for fun?

A. I love taking our Cavalier King Charles dogs, Shamrock and Sebastian, for walks on the many

253 Nassau Street Princeton, NJ 08540 609-924-1600

nature trails in the area. I also love to entertain and enjoy volunteering in the community. Most importantly, I cherish when my family of five can coordinate our busy schedules to spend some quality time together.

Q

. What do you see in the future for Real Estate?

A. Real Estate is continuing to change quickly with the

times. More listings will have interactive floorplans, 3D virtual tours, aerial drone pictures, etc., and the industry will continue to find new innovations for enticing buyers. Buyers search online, wanting to be equipped with as much information as possible before choosing to visit a home, and I anticipate that trend continuing with the aid of technology.

Q

. To what do you attribute your success in Real Estate over the past 20 years?

A. I am patient with my clients and enjoy educating them on real estate in our area. I do my best to treat each client and property with the same care. I don’t believe in cutting corners when it comes to providing service or marketing a home as I would my own, no matter the size of the home or the price point. My motto is “From starter to stately homes, and everything in between.” I also maintain my knowledge of the ever-changing inventory, have excellent negotiating skills, and stay up to date on industry technology.

Here are my two dogs, Shamrock and Sebastian, playing in our backyard.
