Pennington committee Hopewell Valley Central High School reviews police department student figures out natural way to keep tactics, does not barnacles, bacteria off of boats determine bias By ANDREW HARRISON
Staff Writer
The Pennington Police and Court Review Ad Hoc Committee has not identified any systemic bias within the police department after reviewing documents and data from 2016-20. The committee established in July reported its findings to members of Pennington Council during a meeting on Nov. 2. The ad hoc committee reviewed documents and data that included a breakdown of arrests by the police department from June 2016 to June 2020, according to race, gender and age. There was also a breakdown in terms of race and gender of the members of personnel and the personnel employed by the department that had been evaluated by the committee. “Neither of which raise any red flags for us. Additional information reviewed included use of body cameras, internal affairs reports, annual reports and the current composition of the department and personnel in terms of race and gender,” said Councilwoman Deborah Gnatt, who is one the members on the committee. “We did note that there are not currently any female officers, but we were advised by Chief of Police Doug Pinelli that there was a female employed by the department in the 1990s, however she transferred to Hopewell and later moved to another state.” The committee members also consisted of Councilwoman Beverly Mills, along with community representatives Kathleen Nash and Chad Bridges. During the course of the committee review, Gnatt did report the committee had received one complaint of alleged discrimination from the wife of a Black male resident. “She found out through driving in Pennington with him that he had a series of experiences in Pennington. He complained of being singled out and treated
unfairly driving through Pennington,” she added. “We tried to look into this further and tried to communicate with personally to get some more information from him but he did not respond to our attempts to reach him, so we were unable to substantiate any such claims.” In addition, Bridges also interviewed several Black males who live and work in Pennington. “No one reported feeling threatened or uncomfortable or targeted by the police department. As a result of our efforts in our work, we did not identify any systemic bias given the information we were provided with by the Pennington Police Department,” Gnatt said. “No specific instances and no overall data that suggested any bias.” The goal of the review was to determine if there are any issues of systemic bias in operations of the police department and municipal court and recommend ways to eliminate any found; by reviewing all police department data and statistics on police stops, citations and arrests; Pennington Police Department Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs); and personnel polices (including hiring and training). “In light of the George Floyd slaying and the protests, in discussion with Chief Pinelli, we thought it would be good to take a more unbiased review or look at how we operate our police and court in Pennington to ensure there was no systemic bias sneaking into our police operations,” Pennington Mayor Joe Lawver said. “Understandably there was a little hesitance by some in the police department, but I want to commend Chief Pinelli and the entire force for embracing this as the process went on. The committee got full and robust cooperation from police throughout the process.” Pinelli also reported that all of See POLICE, Page 8A
Charlotte Michaluk was a student at Tollgate Middle School in Hopewell when she won first place in the Junior Division (middle school) of the 2020 Mercer Science and Engineering Fair (MSEF) last spring. This qualified her to enter the Broadcom MASTERS Competition, where she advanced to the top 300, and recently to the top 30 finalists. Broadcom MASTERS (Math, Applied Science, Technology and Engineering for Rising Stars) normally takes place in Washington, D.C., but is virtual this year, as was the MSEF, both because of the pandemic. Now a Hopewell Valley Central High School student, Charlotte is the younger sister of Sonja Michaluk, who was the Senior MSEF Grand Prize winner in 2018, 2019 and 2020, according to information provided by the
Mercer Science and Engineering Club. Her project was “Simulating Slipping Snails: Mitigating Climate Change and Ocean-borne Invasive Species Transport with Biomimicry.” As a volunteer at the local Watershed Institute, and as a SCUBA diver, Charlotte has acquired a special concern for the aquatic world, according to the statement. A centuries-long problem for ships has been biofouling whereby algae, bacteria and barnacles accumulate on the hull where they increase the ship’s drag and thus increase the fuel required for propulsion. Also, by “hitching a ride” on the ship, the fouling organisms can become invasive species in destination ports. Traditional anti-fouling has employed toxic chemicals or coatings.
Charlotte’s project examined natural ways that sea creatures resist biofouling with slimy coatings or tooth-like scales called denticles. Charlotte hypothesized that something similar could work on ship hulls. Her research and experiments showed that plastic coatings with shark skinlike denticles worked best, and even reduced the drag of a clean hull. The results can be of great benefit to shipping as well as to the marine environment, according to the statement. This year’s finalists represent thousands of middle school students from every part of the United States. They were set to compete Oct. 16-21 in team challenges, in addition to being judged on their science research projects.

Author Stephen Crane continues to impact alma mater By ANDREW HARRISON

SUBSCRIBE 732-254-7004
Author Stephen Crane has posthumously earned an induction into the New Jersey Hall of Fame. He joined Fran Lebowitz, General Martin Dempsey and Eli Manning in the Class of 2019-20
during a virtual ceremony in October. Crane is known for the classic novel “The Red Badge of Courage”. The war novel first published in 1895 is about a young private (Henry Fleming) in the Union Army during the Civil War, who redeems himself in battle as the stander-bearer of his regiment after previously fleeing a prior battle. Crane would go on to also publish several essays, novels, and a volume of poetry, according to the Library of Congress. In addition, he would become a foreign war correspondent in Greece and the Spanish-American War in Cuba. Even though he passed away at the age of 29 from tuberculosis, his impact still lives on not just
with his writings, but at his former school once called The Pennington Seminary. The school he attended as a student from 188587 is currently known as The Pennington School. “The Pennington School would be honored to have any alumnus named to the New Jersey Hall of Fame, and are especially proud to find Stephen Crane on this list almost 140 years after he attended,” said Emma Wells, spokesperson for The Pennington School. One of Crane’s imprints on the school can be seen through the The Stephen Crane Lecture Series, a tradition that invites prominent authors, artists, or public figures to speak or perform on campus, according to the school. Speakers have included David Hale, U.S. Special Envoy for
Middle East Peace; Rudy Boschwitz ’47, former U.S. Senator, emissary who negotiated Operation Solomon; and Loung Ung, author of “First They Killed My Father”. “Stephen Crane himself has had an impact on the school as an inspiration to students and faculty who study his literature. He has not only inspired the Stephen Crane Lecture Series, but also a school-wide writing contest,” Wells said. “Crane’s novels and short stories such as ‘The Red Badge of Courage,’ ‘Maggie: A Girl of the Streets,’ ‘The Open Boat,’ and ‘The Blue Hotel’ are still studied at the school and stand as lasting examples of the power of literature.” Crane’s connection to what is known today as The Pennington School began with his father, Rev.

teal muscles, the main hip muscles that act as the powerhouse for your legs. Weakness in these muscles can cause your body to compensate and overuse or strain other areas while running. One of the most common injuries that runners develop due to gluteal weakness (specifically the gluteus medius muscle) is iliotibial tendonitis – or in runners’ parlance, IT band tendonitis. The condition occurs when the iliotibial band – the tendon that runs from your pelvis to just below your knee – is overused and becomes tight and pulls, resulting in inflammation and pain on the side and front of your knee. Injuries to your ankles and feet are often related to overpronation, a condition in which the feet roll

inward when walking and running. Overpronation can lead to tendonitis in the foot, ankle and lower leg as well as pain on the inside of the ankle and foot. Additionally, overpronation can lead to shin splints. Tips for Preventing Injuries • Keep your hips strong with exercises that target your gluteal muscles and core. This can include lateral leg lifts, squats, bridges, and one-leg balance activities. Also, sitting for too long or in one position, such as with your legs crossed, can cause your hip flexors to shorten and gluteal muscles to weaken over time. If you sit most of the day, be sure to get up and move around at least once an hour to give your hips a break.
• Wear the proper footwear. The AAOS recommends selecting a running shoe that offers good shock absorption and construction that will provide stability and cushioning to the foot. Make sure that there is a thumbnail’s width between the end of the longest toe and the end of the shoe. Buy shoes at the end of the day when your foot is at its largest size. • Warm up before you head out. An active warm up can help loosen up your muscles and prepare your body for a run. Make squats and lunges part of your warmup routine. • Save static stretching for your post-run cool down. Hold stretches for at least 30 seconds to allow your muscles to stretch properly. Figure four stretches (for the piriformis and gluteal muscles) and hip flexor stretches are good to perform after running. • Choose forgiving surfaces. If possible, try to run on softer surfaces like dirt paths and trails, to reduce the impact on your joints. Concrete is the least forgiving surface for runners. • Vary your route. Do you run on the same side of the road or take the same path each time you run? Typically roads and paths are banked to one side, which means so is your body. Over time this can lead to injury. • Do not run through pain. Toss out that old saying “No pain, no gain.” If you experience pain while running, stop and give your body a break. If the pain continues, it might be time to see a physical therapist. • Keep a training log.

THE STATE WE’RE IN
F

By Michele S. Byers
Harnessing nature to fight climate change
M
any of us love huge old trees. Their beauty, size and feeling of the passing of time leave us in awe. But they also contribute to life on this planet and make it livable for humans and so many incredible life forms. But they also absorb harmful carbon dioxide from the air and release oxygen. The carbon is stored, or sequestered, in the wood of the tree’s trunk, branches and roots, and in its leaves and the organic components of soil. With the advent of a rapidly changing climate, the ability of trees and forests to sequester carbon is getting some attention in this state we’re in. A new report on the state’s climate change response by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) is highlighting the role of natural solutions – that is, using the power of nature – as a key strategy in addressing climate issues. The 80×50 refers to the state’s target of reducing carbon emissions 80% from 2006 levels by 2050. The state’s Global Warming Response Act requires the DEP to track emissions with respect to the target, lay out a strategy and adopt measures to ensure the targets are met. The 200-page report describes various carbon reduction strategies for transportation, electricity generation, homes, commercial businesses and industry. But it also focuses on the need to pro-
tect and enhance the amount of carbon stored in New Jersey’s lands. The report outlines five important ways that trees, forests, wetlands, marshes and farms can offset emissions by sequestering more carbon: • Reforestation – Planting new trees can significantly boost the amounts of carbon stored in soil and woody biomass. Reforestation can take many forms, including planting trees in urban and suburban neighborhoods, planting more trees on pastures and croplands at New Jersey farms, and reforesting wetlands and other lands that were previously covered in forest. Efforts are underway to plant trees in cities, including the New Jersey Tree Foundation’s ongoing project in Camden, but much, much more is needed. • Avoiding the conversion of natural lands – Unfortunately, the trend in New Jersey over the course of the last several decades has been to cut down forests and pave over farms and natural areas for residential and commercial development and other land uses. Between 1986 and 2015, the state saw a 360,000-acre increase in land categorized as urban or developed, and decreases in acreage of upland forests, cropland, grassland and wetlands. But the good news is that the state, through Green Acres and other land pres-
ervation initiatives, is actively protecting forests for their ecological value. • Conservation management of agricultural lands – New Jersey has more than 411,000 acres of harvested cropland which could benefit from improved land management practices to help reduce carbon losses. Best management practices such as little or no tilling of fields, planting cover crops in winter and increasing the organic carbon content of soils can enhance “carbon sinks” and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Between 2012 and 2017, New Jersey saw a 25% increase in acreage of cover crop, with more than 63,000 acres of planted cover crops in 2017. And in 2017, New Jersey farmers employed no-till practices on 104,499 acres of cropland. • Salt marsh and seagrass restoration and enhancement – Salt marshes and seagrass store carbon at a rapid rate and can sequester carbon in the soil for thousands of years. Wetland ecosystems are excellent at storing carbon because their wet soils are low in oxygen, which slows down decomposition and allows organic material to build up. The report warns that the state’s tidal salt marshes could decline between 5% and 9% by 2050 due to sea level rise and recommends steps to protect these marshes
by allowing them to migrate inland. • Proactive forest management – Critical “carbon sinks” in New Jersey’s forests are at risk from wildfires, invasive plants, pests, diseases and overabundant deer, as well as sea level rise. Proposed innovations include adopting carbon sequestration criteria as part of the Community Based Deer Management Plans and expanding deer population management tools on private forest lands. Carbon defense, which is protecting carbon already sequestered in forests, especially via selective thinning in the Pine Barrens to prevent catastrophic losses due to insect infestations and wildfires, can also promote rare species. Protecting existing forests through carbon defense and growing new forests and healing soil with a carbon offensive strategy can “deliver significant reductions in New Jersey’s net carbon emissions costeffectively,” according to the report. The report concludes that natural solutions have the potential to increase carbon sequestration in the landscape by 33% by 2050. The state can’t meet its 2050 emissions targets without them.

Gov. Murphy signs Executive Order; says it will protect workforce during pandemic Gov. Phil Murphy has signed Executive Order No. 192 which he said will provide mandatory health and safety standards to protect all of New Jersey’s workers at work during the ongoing 2020 coronavirus pandemic. Murphy signed the order on Oct. 28, according to a press release from his office. A representative of the New Jersey Business and Industry Association took issue with certain aspects of the order shortly after Murphy’s action was announced. “Since the start of the pandemic, New
Jersey workers across all sectors have risen to the challenges imposed by COVID-19,” Murphy was quoted as saying in the press release. “Yet, the federal government has failed to provide all workers the proper standards and protections they deserve. Today’s executive order closes that gap to help ensure the health and safety of our workforce during this unprecedented time,” the governor said. “With today’s action, New Jersey becomes the only state to leverage its public

New Jersey Business and Industry Association President and CEO Michele Siekerka responded to Executive Order No. 192 by saying, “While we have always shared Gov. Murphy’s priority to establish workplaces that follow federal safety guidelines, today’s directive again makes New Jersey an outlier in terms of mandates – without any balance whatsoever for the concerns of employers. “Our policymakers must strike a better balance toward trying to help our employers by prioritizing legislation for liability protections supporting those businesses that are doing the right thing already – in addition to bringing them more sorely needed resources. “Sadly, we heard no such balance from Gov. Murphy today. We only heard about applying more financial burdens on the same job creators who simultaneously have many of the greatest capacity restrictions in the nation,” she said.

We now have the essential tools and resources we need to ensure businesses are operating safely, and our economy is moving forward,” Labor Commissioner Robert Asaro-Angelo said. “By protecting New Jerseyans in the workplace, we are lessening the health risks to families and communities. As more people return to work, the high standards we have set today will be critical in maintaining our public health,” Asaro-Angelo said. Executive Order No. 192 mandates that as of 6 a.m. Nov. 5, all employers, at minimum, must require individuals at a worksite to maintain at least 6 feet of distance from others to the maximum extent possible and require employees and visitors to wear masks when entering the worksite, subject to certain limited exceptions, according to the press release. Other protocols require employers to: • Provide approved sanitization materials to employees and visitors at no cost to those individuals; • Ensure that employees practice hand hygiene and provide sufficient break time for that purpose; • Routinely clean and disinfect all hightouch areas in accordance with Department of Health and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines; • Conduct daily health checks, such as

Dawn to Dusk relay raises HomeFront Family Campus thousands of dollars for Boys celebrates fifth anniversary & Girls Clubs of Mercer County By LEA KAHN
Staff Writer

Managing Editor
On Nov. 1, Dr. Zoubir Yazid, his wife Erika and their daughter Jasmine, who is a junior at Princeton High School, were joined by 17 participants from 6:30 a.m. to 5:38 p.m. in Community Park South for the Dawn to Dusk Run/ Walk for Kids. “We care greatly about youth, their safety and development. Unfortunately, not all youth in our county have equal access to programs and services to keep them safe and provide them access to caring adults. Young people are at the greatest risk of being a victim of crime between the hours of 3 p.m. and 8 p.m.; however, most at-risk youth don’t have access to after school programs due to an inability to pay for these services. The Boys & Girls Clubs provides after school programs to over 500 children and teens each day and never turns a child away based on ability to pay. These programs support each child’s educational, leadership and overall youth development,” the Yazids posted on the race website. Though the goal was to raise $7,000, the event raised $9,020 as of press

time for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Mercer County. “Even the pouring rain in the afternoon did not stop the members of the team,” Zoubir Yazid said. “It was especially great for us that eight Princeton High School friends of my daughter Jasmine participated in her efforts to raise money by running/walking and donating to the overall team effort. It is always so nice to see the new generation be so involved in the community and helping those in need.” Zoubir Yazid, who is the chief learning officer of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Mer-
cer County, said the funds directly benefit a child or teen in need of financial assistance to be able to attend club programs. “This year it is especially critical to raise funds as the club has been under financial pressure because of all the COVID-19 related protocols that had to be put in place to ensure the kids we serve are safe and healthy,” Zoubir Yazid said.

Samantha grew up in a household where drug addiction was normal and freely admits that she never knew a life without drugs – until she came to HomeFront. At that point, Samantha had been separated from her two children, and she was pregnant with her third child. Samantha spent six months at HomeFront’s Family Campus in Ewing Township, where she took part in many programs, including HomeFront’s “My Baby and Me” addiction treatment program. Samantha has been “clean” for more than 18 months. She is working and has been reunited with her children. They live in their own home. The HomeFront Family Campus, which celebrated its fifth anniversary last month, is housed in a building that was the former home of the U.S. Marine Corps’ Marine Reserve Center at 361 Scotch Road. HomeFront acquired the 8.5-acre decommissioned Naval base after lengthy negotiations. HomeFront was inspired to acquire the 42,000-square-foot building after the State of New Jersey sold the Katzenbach School for the Deaf cam-
pus, which was the initial location of the HomeFront Family Campus, formerly known as the Family Preservation Center. The name was changed when it moved to its current home. The state’s decision to sell the Katzenbach campus galvanized HomeFront officials to take steps to buy a property – and that’s when it zeroed in on the drab, industrial-looking U.S. Marine Corps’ Marine Reserve Center. But it was not an easy task. It took more than seven years to acquire the property – which was given to HomeFront for free – and more than a year to complete the transformation into a bright and airy home for 38 families that stay there until they can get back on their feet. HomeFront raised $6 million for renovations. Taking ownership of the property meant that HomeFront could expand the Family Preservation Center and its services, said Connie Mercer, the nonprofit group’s founder and executive director. It also provided a measure of security for HomeFront, moving it from tenant to owner. There are counseling rooms, classrooms, a large computer room and a smaller computer room, a child care center, an art room and a teaching kitchen with
five stations on the first two floors of the building. The teaching kitchen allows clients to learn about nutrition and cooking, and also practice culinary arts skills they may learn in preparation for a job. The top floor features offices for the family advocates who help the clients, plus a small family lounge and a large library with an oversized glass window. Having offices for the community partners who help the clients all under one roof eliminates the need for transportation from a shelter to agency offices. In the last five years, the HomeFront Family Campus has provided nearly 3,000 homeless individuals with shelter, and the chance to change their lives by offering education, job training and placement, children’s programs and life skills classes. The HomeFront Family Campus’ comprehensive services model was designed on the basis of its years of experience working with families that had found themselves homeless and in need of a helping hand. “We realized early on that it wasn’t enough to have a roof over your head. You need to address all of the underlying issues of homelessness,” Mercer said.

‘Sing for Today’ collaboration with Princeton University taps into energy of the election MEANS TO AN END Before meeting with the funeral director to preplan a funeral, it is best to have a budget in mind. As with planning other life events, it is very important to have a good idea of how you want to allocate your funds. Funeral preplanning helps you prioritize your needs and desires. That way, you have a better idea of what you really want, and you can avoid making purchases that you don’t really need or want. Preplanning allows you the time to make considered choices. By carefully reviewing the costs associated with the most expensive items (such as caskets, grave markers, and urns) ahead of time, you can avail yourself of beautiful items that are reasonably priced.
take some of the logistical and financial stresses off of your family after your death, and ensure that you get the kind of funeral you want. If you choose burial, you need to purchase a burial plot or a spot in a mausoleum at a cemetery. If you choose cremation, you can decide what you want done with the cremated remains, including burial, scattering, or giving them to friends and family. To learn more about our funeral services, please call 609-737-2900. Our funeral home is located at 21 North Main St. Continuous Family Service Since 1881.

Q
. Where did you grow up? A. I grew up in Rockaway NJ in a lake community called White Meadow Lake which is in Morris County. After high school, I attended Ramapo College of New Jersey in Bergen County to obtain my Bachelor Degree in Business. I purchased by first condo in Middlesex County and now I live and raise my family in Hillsborough in Somerset County. I love Hillsborough and it’s central location to everything. I’m a life-long Jersey Girl at heart and understand the demographics and housing market in different communities.
Q
. What do you see in the future for Real Estate sales and prices? A. In my 25 years of selling real estate, I have seen markets swing in varying degrees. I have sold in buyers’ markets and sold in sellers’ markets. Although it is very hard to predict the future, the real estate market has been very strong the last couple of years. Interest rates are at an alltime low so many first-time homebuyers are trying to get into the market. I also see an increase in the number of investors looking to enter the market.
Q
. What do you enjoy doing when you are not working? A. In addition to being with my family, I like to stay active by working out, biking and walking. I also recently completed my first Rugged Maniac race. For the past 10
years, I was a volunteer for the Fresh Air Fund where I was the chairperson for all of Somerset and Hunterdon County. I was responsible for recruiting families to host inner-city children for summer vacations. We were also a host family and enjoyed having kids at our house all summer.
Q
. What are the top 3 things that separate you from your competition? A. First, I take a very honest and comprehensive look at my client’s situation, family, financial goals, and the marketplace. Next, I build a relationship with my client and embrace their goals as my own. Finally, I accept a high level of responsibility for my clients’ satisfaction and achievement of these goals.
Q
. How long have you worked in real estate? A. I started in the mortgage business after college and decided to transition to real estate in 1992. I worked as a sales associate with the Top Producing Agent at Prudential NJ Properties. We were the #1 Award Winning Sales Team in the entire company. I switched to Keller Williams Realty in 2013 and have been a Top Producing Agent as well as the Director of Agent Services. I was also involved in the New Agent Mentoring and Training Program.
Q
. What is your specialty? A. I love working with first time homebuyers. There is nothing more rewarding than helping someone purchase their first home. I also work with investors. I have invested in many properties 2230 Route 206, myself, I’m currently a landlord and I have successfully Belle Mead, NJ 08502 flipped homes. This gives me the experience and 908-359-0893 insight into these markets. In addition, I also sell in a lot in adult communities since many of my clients are downsizing.
