Kipnis seeks to replace Coleman in Congressional race By Philip Sean Curran Staﬀ Writer

Daryl Kipnis has just come in from the rain on a recent Monday morning, when the Republican Congressional candidate is running late for an appointment. His suit jacket is wet and two campaign aides have accompanied him as he prepares to discuss why voters in the 12th Congressional District — a swath of New Jersey from Union County to Mercer County — should choose him in November.

“I’ve always been a believer in individual liberty,” he said during an interview. “Government needs to be there for people who need it. And people do need it. It’s there to keep us safe, it’s there to stop injustices, it’s there to right wrongs. But it’s not there to do every single function in life.” For nearly 44 minutes, Kipnis shared his views on topics ranging from immigration and President Donald Trump to the troubles facing New Jersey and the nation as a whole. “My views are not always go-

ing to align with the Republican Party,” he said. “My views align with the people of the district, the people in New Jersey and to have a representative in the truest sense of the word.” Born in Brooklyn, N.Y., Kipnis lived there for a brief time until his family moved to Staten Island and then finally to New Jersey, in East Brunswick. He counts former President Ronald Reagan as one of the people who influenced his political views. He recalled seeing the fall of communism in Europe as a boy.

“That was the time when I really started paying attention and following everything,” he said. Kipnis graduated from Rutgers University in 2002 and from the Seton Hall University School of Law in 2005. In law school, he lost his best friend, Army Lt. Seth Dvorin, who was killed while serving in Iraq in 2004. Looking back, he said he thinks the Iraq War was a mistake and believes former President George W. Bush, “in many ways, had a personal motivation to finish what his father started.”

Asked in what scenario he, as a Congressman, could support a resolution authorizing the President to send troops overseas, Kipnis said he would “hope I would never have to.” “I don’t think you’re going to see a country, a whole country, mobilize a war effort against the United States in the immediate future,” he said. Kipnis, 38, lives with his wife and their three children in Franklin Township. Professionally, he is an attorney whose law office is

Hopewell Fire Department firefighters christen new truck By Lea Kahn Staﬀ Writer

With a bottle gripped firmly in his hand, Fire Chief Joseph Novak swung his arm and smashed the bottle on the front bumper of the Hopewell Fire Department’s new rescue pumper truck, releasing a spray of foam and bubbles that dripped onto the ground. And with that action, Novak officially welcomed Rescue 52 the truck’s designation - into the Hopewell Fire Department’s fleet of trucks during a special dedication ceremony earlier this month. The ceremony and the celebration that followed were held at the firehouse in Hopewell Borough. “Welcome. This means a lot to us,” Novak said to the attendees who had gathered for the Aug. 18 dedication ceremony at the fire department headquarters on Columbia Avenue. The day’s festivities included a friendly fire truck and fire apparatus judging competition, which drew contestants from fire companies as near as Princeton and Franklin Township and as far away as Falls Township, Pa. There was an inflatable “bounce house” for children, with a fire department theme - a fire station, a fire truck and a fire hydrant. And of course, there was plenty of food prepared by the volunteers. The obligatory “wet down” - or water fight - wrapped up the afternoon-long celebration. Volunteer firefighters from the Hopewell

Fire Department, the Pennington Fire Department and the Middlebush (Franklin Township) Fire Company turned the fire hoses on each other, as friends and family members cheered them on. The new rescue pumper truck, which cost $650,000, replaces a 1992 rescue engine/pumper. The Hopewell Township Board of Fire Commissioners, which has a contract with the Hopewell Borough Board of Fire Commissioners to provide coverage in part of the township, is contributing toward the cost of the new rescue pumper. “The technology has changed tremendously. This one is a bigger truck and it carries more equipment. There are more tools. It carries twice as much water, 1,000 gallons, in the tank than the old one,” Novak said. A special truck committee, made up of volunteer firefighters, was organized to design the new rescue pumper truck, said Assistant Fire Chief Dan Galatro Jr., who chaired the committee. The committee members have served with the volunteer fire company from 15 years to 50 years, he said. The new truck can serve as a pumper truck to spray water from its 1,000-gallon tank. It also holds specialized rescue tools such as the Jaws of Life that can cut away the roof or doors of a vehicle to reach trapped victims. The rescue pumper has special equipment that can be used to staSee TRUCK, Page 3A

Members of the Hopewell Township Fire Department recently welcomed the addition of a brand-new rescue pumper truck, designated Rescue 52. Above, Fire Chief Joseph Novak smashes a bottle of champagne on the front bumper of the new truck in an effort to christen the new vehicle. Right, members of the fire company cool off in the hot August weather the only way they know how - with high powered firehoses and a large amount of water.

Comment period open for borough redevelopment ordinance By Lea Kahn Staﬀ Writer

Hopewell Borough residents will have a chance to weigh in on a redevelopment plan for the J.C. Van Doren and Sons lumber yard property on Model Avenue at the Borough Council’s Sept. 6 meeting.

The council meeting will start at 7 p.m., and will be held in the council meeting room on the lower level of the municipal building. Council members opened the public hearing on an ordinance that proposes to create a Townhouse Residential zone on the 1-acre lumber yard property on Model Avenue at their Aug. 2

meeting, but decided to hold off on final action to allow for more public comment. The redevelopment plan, which has been in the works since 2015, would create a new zone on the property and allow for the construction of up to 13 townhouses. Two of the townhouses would be set aside for low- and

moderate-income households. Municipal officials pointed out that a redevelopment plan is a planning tool and said no one has filed an application with the Planning Board to redevelop the Model Avenue property. The New Jersey Local Redevelopment and Housing Law allows municipal officials to look

at properties that are underused or out of sync with the community’s goals and to rezone the land for another use. The redevelopment law allows for changes in zoning, but it is a lengthy process that would require the approval of the Borough Council and the Planning Board.

SELFIE IMPROVEMENT STRATEGY

It is no coincidence that increasing numbers of adults are choosing to undergo orthodontic treatment at a time when taking “selfies” has become an accepted part of daily life. We certainly all want to look our best, particularly when a cell-phone self-portrait zooms in on a smile intended for all to see. With this in mind, adults are choosing to undergo orthodontic treatment to get the smile that they want. In many cases, older patients are choosing “stealth” treatment methods such as Invisalign®, which uses clear plastic aligners to move teeth into their proper positions. Regardless of the method chosen, orthodontic treatment brings the added benefits of easier hygiene maintenance and reduced risk of bite (TMJ) and tooth-grinding (bruxism) problems. Orthodontic appliances work by employing light, constant force to move teeth into proper alignment. But how we apply these forces can vary, as numerous innovations have become available in recent years. Some of the newer, less visible orthodontic appliances have been designed to blend more easily into an adult’s personal and professional lifestyle. To schedule a consultation, please call the office of MARK W. McDONOUGH, DMD, LLC. at 609-730-1414. We are located at 245 South Main Street (next to Toll Gate Grammar School), Pennington.

Please visit our website at: www.Bracez4you.com P.S. If the teeth and jaws are not properly aligned, undue stress can be exerted on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which can lead to pain and headaches.

Concert: Wayne “The Train” Hancock. Since his stunning debut, Thunderstorms and Neon Signs in 1995, Wayne “The Train” Hancock has been the undisputed king of Juke Joint Swing-that alchemist’s dream of honky-tonk, western swing, blues, Texas rockabilly and big band. Always an anomaly among his country music peers, Wayne’s uncompromising interpretation of the music he loves is in fact what defines him: steeped in traditional but never “retro;” bare bones but bone shaking; hardcore but with a swing.

in 1998, the year Kipnis graduated from East Brunswick High School. Since then, Democrats have won every contest, typically in a landslide. Coleman was reelected in 2016 by about 30 points. “I don’t get the sense in people I talk to when I’m out campaigning that there’s going to be an issue with voting for a Republican at all,” Kipnis said. Princeton Republican Chairman Dudley Sipprelle said Kipnis met with Republicans in that Mercer County town, one of the communities in the district. “We had a good impression of him,” Sipprelle said. “He’s very earnest. He’s very hard-working.” But Sipprelle said Kipnis has an “uphill climb” in a “gerrymandered district” where his own son, Scott, lost to Holt in 2010. Kipnis, asked about Trump, believes the president has accomplished much in less than two years in office: low unemploy-

ment, high consumer confidence and Wall Street doing well. “He’s delivered on his promises he made to the American people,” Kipnis said. “Do I have issues with his tone sometimes? Yes. Does he say things I won’t say? Yes. Has he made mistakes? Yes. But as a whole, if you look at what he’s accomplished, there are very few presidents, if any, in history who have done so much and reversed a lot of issues lingering from not just the previous president’s administration, but the previous two, three, four presidents’ administrations in a short period of time.” On immigration, Kipnis said he supports the Dreamer Act, which would provide a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants who were brought to the United States as children. On his campaign website, he said he favors reforming the nation’s immigration system to “assist others in retaining resident status

and streamlining their path to citizenship as well.” “Mass deportation and sending people out and then having them come back makes no sense at all,” said Kipnis, who added he would vote to fund a border wall. Of the tax cut Congress passed last year, Kipnis said around “60 percent of people in New Jersey are going to see a benefit or break even from the tax reform bill.” The measure has been criticized by Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy and others in the state for limiting the state and local tax deduction on federal income taxes at $10,000. “But let’s focus on the real reason why it hurts New Jersey,” Kipnis said. “The reason why it hurts New Jersey is profligate spending by the Democratcontrolled Legislature for 17 years.” On social issues, he said he favors legalizing marijuana and thinks states

bilize a vehicle that has tipped over. It also contains a mat that can be placed in a stream to prevent oil or contaminants from spreading. Rescue 52 arrived at the firehouse at the end of June, Novak said. It took several weeks for the firefighters to train on the new fire truck. It was officially put into service, meaning it was ready to respond to emergency calls, earlier this month. The new rescue pumper, See CAMPUS, Page 4A along with the rest of the

Hopewell Fire Department’s fire trucks, will respond to calls in Hopewell Borough and part of Hopewell Township, Novak said. The remainder of Hopewell Township is covered by the Pennington Fire Company and the Union Fire Company, both of which are volunteer fire companies. The Hopewell Fire Department is staffed by paid firefighters and emergency medical technicians during the daytime on weekdays, and by volunteers after hours.

Kipnis Continued from Page 1A in Somerset County. This is the second time in as many years Kipnis is running for political office. He lost in a landslide to state Sen. Bob Smith (D-Middlesex and Somerset), but he said he was approached by Republicans to run for Congress. “I looked into doing it,” he said. “I thought about it with the family and talked about it and decided I could do a lot of positive work in Washington.” This year, he is challenging Democratic Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman, who has raised about $690,500 for the contest. An email message to her campaign was not returned. “My opponent hasn’t accomplished what I would like to accomplish in Washington,” he said. “She is a hard-core Democrat.” But the district has not been kind to Republicans. Democrat Rush Holt won the seat in an upset

should be allowed to make up their minds on the issue. He said Roe v Wade, the landmark Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion, “should remain the law of the land.” He favors abolishing the U.S. Department of Education, supports getting more money into the state for infrastructure and wants to address the college loan debt crisis. Kipnis points to how New Jersey gets back less from the federal government than it provides in tax dollars. New Jersey sends among the most, “and we get the least back,” he said. He criticizes “moocher” states like Missouri and Montana that he said get “a lot” of money from the federal government, but “don’t send nearly as much to Washington in terms of revenue that we do.” “And we need it, our state is broke,” Kipnis said.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Candidate makes case for the Township Committee

The signs may have come down, but the Pennytown issue isn’t over

To the editor: My name is Ed “Jack” Jackowski and I am a candidate in this year’s election for Hopewell Township Committee. Born and raised in New Jersey, I have lived in the Hopewell Valley for more than 20 years. I have built a life here with my lovely wife Anita. We have two children, Sarina and Jaina. Sarina is a proud graduate of Hopewell Valley Regional High School and now studies Environmental Sciences at Elon University, while Jaina attends Timberlane Middle School. After leaving a career in the financial services industry, my wife and I opened Jack’s Greenhouse and Farm in Hopewell Township. We love raising our family here and I feel it is time to for me to give back to the community that has given us so much. The Hopewell Township Committee has shown an unwillingness to listen to our residents’ heartfelt concerns and the poor decisions made by the current administration are being made with reckless speed and little public input. They have shown a complete disregard to mount a meaningful fight against developers, opting to further burden our already fragile infrastructure. Unexplained and unnecessary personnel vacancies have resulted in a slowdown of our local government services; one example is the inability to pick-up brush that has piled high in many of our neighborhoods. Through my background as a small business owner, my training as a Marine and as an officer of various local organizations, such as the Free Masons Cyrus Lodge #5 in Pennington and the Woosamonsa Schoolhouse Association, I have the unique skill set needed to listen to our residents, identify their needs and consider the long term implications of each decision. These are the skills that are lacking in our current administration. What makes Hopewell so unique are the residents and their acceptance of diverse opinions. Our wonderful community is built on the connections we make with our friends and neighbors. We talk with one another at the local farmer’s market, socialize at barbecues and cheer our kids on from playgrounds to the athletic fields. I look forward to meeting with residents as I walk the neighborhoods, listening to your thoughts and ideas about how we can strengthen our community. The township committee must embody the core beliefs of the residents, not those of developers who wish to line their pockets by destroying our scenic countryside and peaceful way of life. Please vote for me, Ed “Jack” Jackowski, for Hopewell Township Committee on November 6. Ed Jackowski Republican for Township Committee

Local News

To the editor:

For years, Democratic candidates in Hopewell Township got elected by promising to spread the affordable housing burden throughout the township. This promise played well among voters in the southern tier who were understandably unhappy about more dense housing in their area, and the slogan sounded to everyone like basic fairness. Never mind that dense development requires the kind of sewers that are only available in the southern tier, or that affordable housing should be located near markets, jobs and mass transit. These Democrats first told us they would place units in barns. That never happened. Then they purchased Pennytown for $6.5 million right at the height of the real estate boom. Many of us felt that the site of the former county restaurant was wholly inappropriate. There was no public sewer service. There were no nearby jobs or markets. The traffic infrastructure was limited. They spent another $1.3 million in professional fees before it became clear that the site was unsuitable for affordable housing. Permit me to take a few words to say, “we all told you so.” Imagine spending that kind of public money without proper due diligence. So, we are left with a $7.8 million boondoggle. That money was needed in our affordable housing fund to enable meaningful options in our round three affordable housing efforts. But that fund currently sits at under $80,000, a tiny amount given the enormity of the numbers to which Hopewell Township has agreed. In other words, the Pennytown mistake truly matters. Add to that the purchase of the Zaitz tract in the southern tier for $5.8 million, only to sell it to the developer for $10,000. Yes, that really happened! The new generation of Democrats promised to sell off the Pennytown property in order to replenish the affordable housing fund. They placed very large signs there to attract a buyer interested in redeveloping the property. John Hart urged that they hire a realtor to assist the effort, but his suggestions were ignored for years. The township sought to sell the land by itself. For many months, this administration has told us that they had an interested buyer. Then suddenly, the township’s signs at Pennytown came down. Recent events suggest that their buyer made an unrealistic offer for the property into which the township sunk $7.8 million. After years of unsuccessful marketing, at their August 27 meeting, they hired a commercial realtor to try to sell the Pennytown property. The Hopewell Township Committee finally agreed with John Hart’s Pennytown recommendation. Stay tuned for the next chapter in this sad, budget-busting saga.

A Beautiful Smile Works the Best Many parents ask me if straightening teeth is for cosmetic purposes only. The answer lies in the direct link between form and function. Teeth function best when they look their best! For example, teeth should fit together like pieces of a puzzle. An upper molar should fit in between two lower teeth. Upper front teeth should be slightly in front of lower front teeth. Speaking and eating are adversely affected if these forms or positions are incorrect. When upper teeth protrude forward in an overbite, it is more difficult to pronounce “f”, “th”, and “v” sounds. When lower teeth protrude forward in an underbite, it is much harder to

eat foods like pizza, apples, or sandwiches that require biting with front teeth. If teeth are spaced apart, crowded, or in crossbite not all teeth are fitting together. There is more wear and tear on the few teeth taking the brunt of the force put on them by chewing. This wear and tear can lead to sensitivity of the teeth, gum problems, and jawbone problems. If teeth are rotated or overlapped, toothbrush bristles cannot reach the inaccessible areas, and cavities can result. Orthodontics not only creates beautiful smiles, but also improves speaking, eating, and the overall health of teeth. Now, that’s something to smile about!

PRINCETON UNIVERSITY CONCERTS Princeton University’s 2018-19 Concert Season Preview Anniversaries are often a time for looking back on all that has come before. And with 124 years of presenting the world’s greatest musicians, there can be no doubt that Princeton University Concerts has made an immeasurable impact in the history of classical music. But as we look ahead to our 125th season, we choose to look toward the future. Bobby McFerrin – Friday, Sept. 21 – 7:30 p.m. “Circlesongs” Bobby McFerrin is not so much a musician as he is an instrument of music itself, a pure distillation of sound into joy whose performances blur the lines between performer and audience, fusing the two into a joyous communion. Jerusalem String Quartet – Thursday, Oct. 11 – 8 p.m. with Pinchas Zukerman, Viola & Amanda Forsyth, Cello We’ll kick things off by bringing back the acclaimed Jerusalem String Quartet after a six-year hiatus – but they won’t be coming alone. They’ll be bringing their longtime friend and mentor, legendary violinist Pinchas Zukerman, and his wife, cellist Amanda Forsyth. Schubert String Quintet in C Major, D. 956 – Wednesday, Oct. 17 – 6 & 9 p.m. Takács String Quartet; David Requiro, Cello Yehudi Menuhin might have put it best when he described Franz Schubert’s music as “purity itself.” His sublime cello quintet, completed weeks before his death, is quite possibly one of the most perfectly written works in all of chamber music. Abigail Washburn, Banjo & Wu Fei, Guzheng – Thursday, November 8 – 7:30 p.m. “Beijing Meets Banjo” It might feel a bit strange to use the words ‘rockstar’ and ‘guzheng’ in the same sentence, but if anyone can take this 2,000-year-old Chinese stringed instrument and crank it up to 11, it would be Wu Fei. Richardson Chamber Players – Sunday, Nov. 11 – 3 p.m.

“From Rio to Brooklyn” Featuring mixed chamber works of George Gershwin, Heitor Villa-Lobos, Silvestre Revueltas, Astor Piazzolla, and Cuban composer Leo Brouwer. Simón Bolíver String Quartet – Sunday, Dec. 2 – 2 p.m. Exploring “Art & the Americas” -Panel discussion following the concert, moderated by Gustavo Dudamel As Music Director of the Simón Bolíver Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela, Dudamel will bring together a string quartet made of the principals in the orchestra, to play a program that explores music’s ability to transcend geographical and political borders and unite us in our shared experiences. Martin Fröst, Clarinet & Henrik Måwe, Piano – Thursday, Dec. 13 – 8 p.m. When asked ‘what’s your favorite instrument to hear in a classical music recital?’ most people’s default response probably wouldn’t be ‘the clarinet.’ That is, until they’ve heard the sweeping sounds of Swedish clarinetist Martin Fröst. For his PUC debut he’s joined by fellow Swede Henrik Måwe for a sumptuous spread of Brahms, Poulenc, and Vivaldi/Telemann arrangements. Musicians from the Los Angeles Philharmonic – Monday, Jan. 7 – 7 p.m. Exploring “Art & Faith” -Panel discussion following the concert, moderated by Gustavo Dudamel Conductor Sir George Solti once said, “Mozart makes you believe in God,” and it’s hard to disagree after listening to the absolute perfection of his Clarinet Quintet. Messiaen Quartet for the End of Time – Wednesday, Feb. 6 – 6 & 9 p.m. Stefan Jackiw, Violin; Jay Campbell, Cello; Yoonah Kim, Clarinet; Conrad Tao, Piano No words can adequately capture the towering mystery of Oliver Messiaen’s “Quartet for the End of Time.” One can speak of the piece’s backstory, composed in a World War II concentration camp and inspired by the biblical depiction of an Angel of God heralding the end of days. Richardson Chamber Players – Sunday, Feb. 10 – 3 p.m. “Then & Now: Celebrating PUC’s

125th Anniversary” Featuring mixed chamber works by Camille Saint-Saëns, Johannes Brahms, Eric Nathan, Richard Strauss, and Anton Arensky written during PUC’s inaugural season (1894-1895) paired with works of today. Gabriel Kahane, Vocalist/Composer – Thursday, Feb. 14 – 7:30 p.m. “8980: Book of Travelers” In these divided times, music has an ever-more important role as a universal language of connection, and a reminder of our shared experience. Schubert Octet for Winds and Strings in F Major, D. 803 – Tuesday, Feb. 19 – 6 & 9 p.m. Brentano String Quartet; Anthony McGill, Clarinet; Jennifer Montone, Horn; Daniel Matsukawa, Bassoon; Leigh Mesh, Bass Listening to Franz Schubert’s Octet makes one feel that a reservoir of melody has been opened up, with torrents of tunefulness pouring from each measure. Steven Isserlis, Cello & Connie Shih, Piano – Thursday, Feb. 28 – 8 p.m. Steven Isserlis is – without question – one of the greatest cellists performing today. One of the only two living cellists in the Gramophone Hall of Fame, this is a man who never stops searching, reaching, and expanding his musical output. Joyce DiDonato – Sunday, March 10 – 3 p.m. “Songplay” Joyce DiDonato is one of the great communicators of our era – able to bridge genres and generations with her profound humanity, her musical vision, and her extraordinary voice. Alexander Melnikov, Piano & Andreas Staier, Piano – Thursday, March 14 – 8 p.m. Back in 2016, Alexander Melnikov came to PUC and played a 3-hour program of the complete preludes and fugues of Shostakovich that left the audience with their jaws squarely on the floor. Now he returns with good friend and fellow keyboard maven Andreas Staier to perform a gloriously intimate program of Shubert’s fourhand piano music. Patricia Kopatchinskaja, Violin &

Polina Leschenko, Piano – Thursday, March 28 – 8 p.m. This wild-child of the violin has exploded onto the international scene in recent years with an untamable energy and a farreaching approach to repertoire that runs from baroque and classical to commissions and reimagined modern masterpieces. Takács String Quartet- Marc-André Hamelin, Piano & John Feeny, Bass – Thursday, April 4 – 8 p.m. At this point, the Takás String Quartet are part of the PUC family, making their 20th appearance on the series this season. But this year will be different – not only because of their recently announced new second violinist Harumi Rhodes, but also because they’ll be bringing along the magnificent pianist Marc-André Hamelin to play the scales off of Schubert’s ‘Trout’ Quintet. Australian Chamber OrchestraRichard Tognetti, Artistic Director & Paul Lewis, Piano – Thursday, April 11 – 8 p.m. There’s something indescribable about watching the 18 players of the Australian Chamber Orchestra perform together – the way they move, stand, breather, and play as one, led by the indefatigable Richard Tognetti. Avi Avital, Mandolin & Omer Avital, Bass – Tuesday, April 16 – 7:30 p.m. “Avital Meets Avital” What do you get when you mix up Moroccan, North African, Israeli, and Mediterranean musical traditions and filter them through a blend of jazz and classical idioms? We probably would never have known if not for the musical union of mandolinist Avi Avital and bassist Omer Avital (no relation). Ensemble Berlin, Featuring Members of The Berlin Philharmonic – Tuesday, April 23 – 7 p.m. Exploring “Art & Nature” -Panel discussion following the concert, moderated by Gustavo Dudamel Maestro Dudamel’s relationship to the hallowed Berlin Philharmonic stretches back a decade and includes close personal connections with the orchestra’s most recent music

MCCARTER THEATRE McCarter Theatre in Princeton announced its 2018-19 Season Preview The series begins with Douglas McGrath’s world premiere adaptation of The Age of Innocence, Edith Wharton’s classic gilded age love story, directed by Doug Hughes.

THE AGE OF INNOCENCE – Sept. 7 – Oct. 7 Directed by Doug Hughes When is it wrong to love someone? Is love the highest ideal, or is kindness and duty to each other even greater than love? These are the questions asked by Edith Wharton in her Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. Set in New York in the Gilded Age, The Age of Innocence is both ravishingly

romantic and heartbreakingly unsentimental. Adapted from Wharton’s novel by Oscar® and Tony® nominee Douglas McGrath (Emma, Nicholas Nickleby) and directed by Tony Award® winner Doug Hughes (Junk, The Father on Broadway). DETROIT ‘67 – Oct. 9 – 28 Directed by Jade King Carroll It’s the summer of 1967 and Chelle and her brother Lank are running an unlicensed after-hours juke joint out of their basement. Risky business, especially during a brutal police crackdown that has set off riots throughout the city. When Lank offers refuge to a mysterious stranger, pentup emotions erupt, and they must navigate chaos from both outside and within. “Mind-blowing” says the Huffington Post; “Morisseau is a direct heir to Hansberry, Williams, and Wilson. You feel the pulse and vibrations of her characters.” A CHRISTMAS CAROL – Dec. 4 – 29 Directed by Adam Immerwahr Using David Thompson’s masterful adaptation, McCarter continues its annual

Ébène String Quartet – Thursday, May 2 – 8 p.m.

At the top of the list for ‘cool things from France’ is the Ébène String Quartet, perhaps the only group in history that can smoothly transition from Bartók to barbershop harmonies, Brahms to Bruce Springsteen.

In this riveting two-person drama, a polite clash in perspectives explodes into an urgent and dangerous contemporary debate on race, history, and power. “Scintillating,” raves Peter Marks in the Washing-

ton Post. “The story of America, it seems, is destined to be wrestled over to the bitter end.” Kimberly Senior(Disgracedon Broadway) directs. Ken Ludwig’s THE GODS OF COMEDY – March 12–March 31, 2019 Directed by Kathleen Marshall A young Princeton Classics professor puts her career—and her love life—in peril, and calls on the gods of Ancient Greece to save her. When the gods who show up are the gods of comedy, things don’t go according to plan. Ken Ludwig, the two-time Olivier Award winning playwright who penned Lend Me a Tenor, Baskerville, and most recently, the thrilling adaptation of Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express, returns with another world premiere comedic tour-de-force at McCarter.

The five-play season features a Tony Award-nominated play, a Laurents/Hatcher Foundation Award winner, a suspenseful courtroom drama, a heartwarming story in a strange land and the world premiere of a new musical. The Trial of Donna Caine – Oct. 16 – Nov. 11 Written by Walter Anderson Directed by David Saint When Marine Staff Sergeant Donna Caine is accused of a serious crime, highly respected attorney Emily Zola Ginsberg is convinced to take the case. Fighting for her client’s future, Ginsberg finds herself taking on the military establishment in order to expose the truth. Based on actual events, this riveting courtroom drama is filled with intrigue that will keep audiences on the edge of their seats. A Doll’s House, Part 2 – Nov. 22 – Dec. 23 Written by Lucas Hnath Directed by Betsy Aidem When we last saw Nora Helmer, she was slamming the door on life as she knew it &#8212; embarking on a brave, bold and shocking new life as a woman on her own. Fifteen years later, she’s returned to that door, with a high-stakes game of unfinished business on her mind. Featuring the same characters from Ibsen’s groundbreaking masterpiece, The New York Times called this Tony Award-nominated play “A smart, funny and utterly engrossing play,” and Time Out New York called it “modern in its language…and suspenseful in its plotting.” Little Girl Blue: The Nina Simone Musical – Jan. 29 – Feb. 24, 2019 Written by and starring Laiona Michelle Music by Nina Simone and others

Following her critically acclaimed performance in American Hero, Laiona Michelle returns to George Street Playhouse to play Nina Simone.

With only his banana cart in tow, Haskell finds compassion and friendship from an unlikely couple, and creates a pastoral life for his family. Broadway World said The Immigrant is “Timely and touching…don’t miss this extraordinary look at a family’s journey toward living the American dream.” Too Heavy for Your Pocket – April 23 – May 19, 2019 Written by Jirén Breon Holder Tennessee-born Holder takes us back to Nashville, in the summer of 1961 as the Freedom Riders embark on a courageous journey into the Deep South. When 20-year-old Bowzie Brandon gives up a life-changing college scholarship to join the movement, he’ll have to convince his loved ones – and himself – that shaping his country’s future might be worth jeopardizing his own. Recipient of the 2017 Laurents/Hatcher Foundation Award, The New York Times called the play “illuminating and moving.” Check out the George Street Playhouse’s 2018-19 season, 103 College Farm Road, New Brunswick.

Pam Hersh

William E. Schluter is fondly remembered

My phone buzzed with a news alert when I was about to go into Labyrinth Books on Nassau Street in Princeton to buy the book, “Soft Corruption.” I had to read the book before I interviewed the author, William E. Schluter, the former Republican lawmaker who had served in both houses of the New Jersey Legislature, and who grew up in Princeton, graduated from Princeton University (class of 1950), and raised his family in Pennington. My phone, however, delivered the very sad news that Bill Schluter had died on Monday, Aug. 6, 2018. His, “scheduler” decided that perhaps my interview with the 90-year-old would be superfluous, considering the volumes of words and effusive praise already spoken and written about New Jersey’s Super Hero of Ethics. Bill Schluter spent his entire life not just railing against acts of (mostly) legal “soft” political corruption among elected officials in government, but more importantly trying to do something about it. He authored pioneering laws regulating lobbying and campaign finance, was chairman of the Citizens Clean Elections Commission, and served on the State Ethics Commission. He defined soft corruption as unethical – but for the most part, legal – “transgressions carried out in the quest for political power or personal benefit, achieving results that work against the public interest.” Like a true super hero, he never lost sight of his mission and fought with his sword of words and legislative actions un-

Ingrid was one of the friends he thanked Ingrid pointed out that Bill Schluter’s in the “acknowledgement” portion of the passion for reform never devolved into book. Their friendship was evident, when denigrating or bullying behavior. His focus she led a conversation with Bill Schluter at was on reforming the system. Furthermore,

she said, he knew how to listen. “I always had heard about Bill Schulter,” she said. “He ran in our district, and simply as a constituent, I watched him and read about him for many years. But it was when I started at Eagleton in 1996 that I had the opportunity to talk with him on a regular basis. I learned so much from him, but I was honored to find that he was genuinely interested in listening to me and getting the perspective of a lifelong Democrat. Politics didn’t matter, people mattered.” Ingrid seems to be an appropriate disciple of Bill’s ethics doctrine. She is a founder and current board chair of NJ Spotlight; a founder and board member of NJ Future; a member of the NJ AARP Advocacy Committee; and a member of Trenton Mayor Reed Gusciora’s Transition Committee. In the past, she served on New Jersey’s Help America Vote Act (HAVA) committee on election reform and chaired the Local Government Ethics Reform Task Force in the Corzine and Christie administration. Most recently, Ingrid and her husband, former Princeton Borough Mayor Marvin Reed, were recognized for their decades of working on behalf of the public interest rather than their own interest with the receipt of the Leslie “Bud” Vivian Community Service Award, administered by the Princeton Area Community Foundation.

Thank you, Marvin and Ingrid, for choosing a life of public service and carrying out your responsibilities in accordance with the Schluter principles. Perhaps the best way to thank them is by reading “Soft Corruption”– which I just did, and giving it your children and grandchildren – which I just did.

Treating Crohn’s Disease Can Reduce Risk for Complications Crohn’s disease is a type of inflammatory bowel disease that affects more than half a million people in the United States, according to the National Institutes of Health. Often beginning gradually, Crohn’s can become worse over time and cause serious health complications. At the Center for Digestive Health at Penn Medicine Princeton Medical Center, patients with Crohn’s disease and other common and complex gastrointestinal disorders have access to high-quality screening, testing and treatment. Inflammation and Irritation A chronic disease, Crohn’s causes inflammation and irritation in your digestive tract. Most commonly, Crohn’s affects your small intestine and the beginning of your large intestine, but it can affect any part of the digestive tract, including your mouth and your anus.

Small tears in your anus may case itching, pain or bleeding. • Ulcers or open sores can occur anywhere along your digestive tract, including your mouth and intestines. • Crohn’s can prevent your body from getting the vitamins, minerals and nutrients it needs to stay healthy.

Health Matters

Continued from Page 22B • Inflammation in other areas of your body, such as your joints, eyes and skin. Additionally, if Crohn’s occurs in your large intestine, you may be more likely to develop colon cancer. Diagnosis and Treatment Diagnosing Crohn’s disease involves a combination of tests including a physical exam, lab tests and imaging tests such as X-rays and CT scans to look for inflammation. If your doctor suspects the problem is in the small intestine, a video capsule endoscopy may be recommended, allowing your doctor to see inside your digestive tract through a tiny camera contained in a small capsule you can swallow. Video capsule endoscopy, offered at PMC’s Center for Digestive Health, does not require anesthesia, and patients are able to leave the doctor’s office after swallowing the capsule. As the capsule makes it way through the digestive tract, the camera records and transmits images to a small receiver device that you wear. When the recording is finished, your doctor can download and review the images. The camera leaves your body through a bowel movement and can be safely flushed down the toilet. In cases where the large intestine is affected, a colonoscopy is typically required

to confirm the diagnosis. Because colon cancer is a complication of Crohn’s, people with Crohn’s should talk to their doctor about how often they should have a colonoscopy. When detected early, colon cancer can often be cured. Treatment for Crohn’s depends on its severity and may include medication, bowel rest, surgery or a combination of all three. For people with mild symptoms, medications can help decrease inflammation and prevent flare-ups. For people with more severe symptoms, surgery is often necessary to treat Crohn’s. In fact, according to the NIH, one study found that 60 percent of people had surgery within 20 years of having Crohn’s disease. Though Crohn’s disease a chronic disease that cannot be cured, with the proper diagnosis and treatment it can be managed to alleviate symptoms, with periods of remission that can last for years.

. Where did you grow up? A. I am a New Jersey resident my whole life. Born in Red Bank and raised in Middletown, after college my wife and I moved to central New Jersey where we have been for almost 40 years.

. What do you like most about living in this area? A. There is something for everyone in the greater Princeton area. Personally, I enjoy the outdoors (hiking, fishing, kayaking, biking, golfing). Mercer County’s commitment to the space devoted to parks, trails and waterways make for an exceptional quality of life people who enjoy outdoor activities.

. What is your specialty in real estate? A. Several years ago I earned the SRES® (Seniors Real Estate Specialist) designation. Baby boomers like me often are dealing not only their own futures regarding planning for retirement and real estate needs, but that of

their parents and children. The SRES course provided me with all of the tools to help me help seniors who are not sure where to begin. While “aging in place” is preferred, there may come a time when it is no longer a choice. In many cases baby boomers have parents and children with special needs. I have an excellent network of professionals in place to help them make the best choices.

. What separates you from your competition? A. My marketing communications background and skills enable me to better position and present my clients properties and help define where the prospective buyers will be coming from, thus maximizing how every marketing dollar is spent to target prospective buyers. On the buy side, I am very straight with my clients about the pros and cons of properties they are considering.

Q Q

. What did you do before real estate? A. I was Owner/President of a marketing communications company for 18 years.

. What is the most challenging/gratifying aspect of what you do? A. Helping people who need the most help. Firsttime home buyers and Seniors seem to have the most needs. First time home buyers have many questions every step of the way, and I am happy to lead them. Seniors often do not have a spouse or children living locally to help with a move, so you become family. Trust is a huge part of any transaction, especially when you are dealing with Seniors.
