Serving the Greater Princeton Area Since 1786

University officials will make repairs to Nassau Hall

By Philip Sean Curran Staff Writer

Nassau Hall has endured war and fires in the more than 260 years since it was built, a building today that is home to the Princeton University administration.

But as with any building, it needs repair, a task that falls on the shoulders of Donald Lowe, assistant vice president of facilities operations at the Ivy League institution.

“The way I like to describe Nassau Hall is that Nassau was there before the country was a country,” Lowe said in a recent interview of a building that was constructed in 1756.

The place where Founding Fa-

ther James Madison once studied is getting some work. Plans call for a new roof and other repairs the university intends to make between now and early next year.

Documents filed with the Princeton planning office also indicate the university will restore the cupola.

“We had an assessment done that told us the structural components of it are fine,” Lowe said.

“It’s just that the parts that are visible need attention, need replacement.”

The university would not disclose the cost of the project.

As part of its plans, the university plans to lay a new slate roof with slate from the Buckingham Slate Co., in Virginia, according

to documents the university filed with the municipality. The company, founded in 1867, produces an “unfading blue black” slate that has a long life span, a company executive said.

“Essentially, it’s just never ever going to change color, it’s never going to break down. It’s the longest lasting slate in the world,” said Brad Jones, sales director for Buckingham Slate.

“It is often used on campuses because of that kind of constancy of color.”

The slate can be found at Harvard University’s Lowell House, a student dormitory, and at Ford’s Theatre in Washington, D.C., among other places.

Replacing the roof of an his-

toric building is labor intensive, said George Hnat, who used to own a roofing business in Maryland.

“The slate’s heavy, you’ve got a scaffold,” Hnat said. “Usually, the roof has a steep pitch on it because with slate the water has to run off fairly quickly. You have to have a fairly steep slope.”

Built before the Revolutionary War, Nassau Hall was shelled during the battle of Princeton in 1777, served as the temporary home of the Continental Congress in 1783, and had two fires, in 1802 and 1855.

“The largest stone building in the American colonies, it was built on land donated by Nathaniel FitzRandolph, after whom the

university’s FitzRandolph Gate is named,” according to a history of the building on the university’s website.

During the project, passersby will be hard-pressed to miss the work taking place.

“What’s going to look interesting is that even though it’s a relatively straightforward roof replacement and cupola rehabilitation, it will have scaffolding all the way around Nassau Hall and then scaffolding elevated up at the cupola level,” Lowe said. “There will be a massive amount of fencing and scaffolding. It’s going to look like a really major project, but it’s really simple, I guess, at its basic level.”

Cochrane: Referendum needed to keep up with growing enrollment

By Philip Sean Curran Staff Writer

Princeton Public Schools officials are keeping their options open in case their nearly $130 million facilities bond referendum is defeated in October, options that include having another referendum early next year.

In New Jersey, school districts can appeal to the state Commissioner of Education to override the outcome of an election after two defeats at the polls. For now, though, Princeton officials are eyeing the Oct. 2 vote for residents to decide a $129.6 million referendum that would pay to build a new school for fifth- and sixth-graders, increase the student capacity at overcrowded Princeton High School, and buy property, among other projects.

In terms of the next step, the Board of Education is scheduled to vote July 17 on whether to place a referendum before voters this fall.

With a month to go before that happens, Superintendent of Schools Stephen C. Cochrane held another town hall meeting on June 18, where he discussed the district’s plans, the costs involved and the needs he sees in his growing school district.

Speaking to an audience of residents at the John Witherspoon Middle School, he touched on familiar themes: enrollment is growing and projected to grow in the future. For example, Cochrane said the middle school has 727 students, exceeding the capacity of 626. Forecasts show that in two years there will be

more than 850 students, he said.

“And then it goes up from there,” Cochrane said of projections that show 1,000 or more students in the middle school. “We need to do something soon for the students and teachers who will be occupying this particular space.”

At Princeton High School, the district is proposing to do $56.5 million worth of work, Cochrane showed in his presentation.

Cranbury, which has a sendreceive relationship with Princeton which permits Cranbury residents of high school age to attend Princeton High School, would have to pay a portion of the interest on the debt of the high school projects, officials have said.

The amount Cranbury would pay or how its portion is calculated was not immediately available.

In terms of a tax impact, Cochrane showed that for the average home assessed at $837,074, residents would pay an extra $295 in 2020, an additional $294 in 2021, an extra $692 in 2022 and an additional $220 in 2023.

The average increase, across the 30 years of the debt repayment, would be $53.49.

In an interview after his twohour-presentation, Cochrane said See REFERENDUM, Page 3A

Princeton residents rally to ‘keep families together’ More than 150 residents from Princeton and the surrounding area took to Nassau Street last Thursday to decry President Trump’s immigration policies. Led by the Families Belong Together organization, the rally came days before the president signed an executive order temporarily ending the practice that resulted in Immigration and Customs Enforcment (ICE) officials physically separating children as young as 3 months old away from their parents. Pastor Sammy Arroyo, of the First United Methodist Church in Hightstown, (right) was one of the many attendees who addressed the crowd.

Flag Day attendees praise the efforts of late Spirit of Princeton co-founder, Ray Wadsworth

By Philip Sean Curran Staff Writer

The patriotic music played on, the honor guard marched in formation and the crowd stood as one at Princeton’s annual Flag Day ceremony, June 14, just as Ray Wadsworth would have liked it.

Wadsworth, the former Princeton fire chief and borough councilman who died May 31 at 80, started this event in the late 1990s and later emceed it — always with his hand covering his heart when the national anthem played.

His contributions to the community included co-founding the Spirit of Princeton, the nonprofit group that presents this and oth-

er patriotic-themed events each year.

“A heartfelt thanks to Ray for all he did to get this organization organized and to keep us going,” said Mark Freda, the president of the Princeton First Aid and Rescue Squad and vice chairman of the Spirit of Princeton, during the ceremony in the plaza of the Witherspoon Hall municipal building.

“Forward, march,” called out Princeton Police Sgt. Fred Williams in directing the color guard bringing in the American flag, a flag Wadsworth said he loved.

“When I think of Flag Day, I, of course, think about the flag and all it stands for,” Mayor Liz Limpet said at the event. “But I also

think of Ray Wadsworth, as I am sure so many of you do, too … ” Lempert said Flag Day in Princeton will “always be associated with Ray, who was a true Princeton patriot in all senses of the word.”

Lempert shared that after she was sworn in as mayor, Wadsworth approached her and said he would be there for her for whatever she needed.

“And that’s the way Ray was, he was like that for the entire Princeton community,” she said.

“It was always about helping Princeton and working together for a better community.”

Later, Wadsworth’s grandson, Keith, a volunteer Princeton firefighter, filled in for his grand-

father during the ceremony. Ray Wadsworth would retire old flags by burning them in a metal drum.

Afterward, Keith Wadsworth said it had been emotional coming to the ceremony.

“Every day is, but we’re doing it for him,” he said.

John Baker, who handles the sound system for Flag Day and other Spirit of Princeton events, said he had known Ray Wadsworth for three decades. He said Wadsworth was on his mind when he was traveling to the Flag Day ceremony.

“Ray was one of those people who didn’t want the limelight, stayed in the background (and) just did. He just did,” Baker said.

“He made it all work.”

ABSENT TEETH

The term “anodontia” is used to describe the genetic or congenital (hereditary) absence of teeth. The teeth most commonly missing are the “lateral incisors” (on either side of the two front teeth) and the “second bicuspids” (two teeth behind the canine, or eye, teeth).

As you might imagine, missing these teeth poses some problems beyond cosmetic. When holes are left where teeth should be, other teeth may slowly shift out of place, changing the way teeth fit together and adversely affect bite.

Depending on the teeth that are missing, the dentist can provide a variety of tooth-replacement options, including a partial denture, a Maryland bridge (resin bonded), a bridge, or a crown supported by a dental implant.

It’s one of life’s simple truths— no one gets more than one set of permanent teeth. Teeth are meant to last a lifetime, but you have to work at it; you have to want to

keep them badly enough to do what needs to be done. And if that means protecting them by eating and drinking healthy foods and beverages, brushing and flossing regularly, and having regular professional visits, then we hope you will call us for an appointment at 609-924-8300.

Talk titled “What’s a Router and Why Do I Want One?”

by Gabe Goldberg. The electronic box connected between your ISP’s wall connection and your home network is almost certainly a router (providing Ethernet ports and WiFi access), or perhaps it’s a router with added capabilities (e.g., modem converting ISP connec-

tivity to Ethernet). You’re hardly alone if you haven’t given it much thought, since it likely “just works”, year after year. But routers are complex devices: in fact, they’re computers running operating systems and applications! They’re therefore worth informed decisions about selection and configuration, and need occasional software updating or replacement to fix problems, improve performance, and (especially) close security exposures. This presentation will answer the question posed above and help understand and exploit router features. For more information, go to ppcug-nj. apcug.org.

Déjà vu for councilwoman as state budget battle looms

By Philip Sean Curran Staff Writer

As New Jersey faces the prospect of a state government shutdown, Princeton Councilwoman Heather H. Howard has seen this all before.

In 2006, Howard was the chief of policy for Gov. Jon Corzine, a Democrat who was in his first year in office. He battled fellow Democrats, who controlled the state Legislature, over whether to raise the sales tax. The budget stalemate led to the first state government shutdown in New Jersey history, with Howard remembering how Corzine brought in a cot to sleep on in his State House office.

“It is eerily reminiscent,” she said on June 20 of a dispute that, like then, dealt with making structural reforms on one hand or relying on one-shot revenues “to fill budget holes” on the other. She said Corzine wanted to raise the sales tax by a half-cent

so there would be “recurring revenue to match the spending obligations.”

Like Corzine, Gov. Phil Murphy is a Democrat, a former Goldman Sachs executive and an outsider to Trenton whose first year in office has featured a tug of war with the Democraticcontrolled state Legislature.

Murphy said on June 18 that he would veto the budget lawmakers are proposing, one he said would leave the state with a $164 million deficit and is reliant upon on temporary revenues. Instead, he has favored increasing taxes on people who make more than $1 million and raising the sales tax, now at 6.625 percent, to 7 percent.

During his budget address in March, Murphy offered a proposed budget of $37.4 billion, but lawmakers this week advanced their “fiscally responsible” budget of $36.5 billion, in the words of state Sen. Paul Sarlo, (D-Bergen and

on June 19.

“So whether it be property tax relief funding or dedicated funding for other programs, that obviously is on hold and technically uncertain until the signed budget is put into place,” Cerra said.

One Princeton official echoed a similar concern.

“Depending on how long the shutdown goes on, it can impact funding we might be expecting from the state,” Mayor Liz Lempert said on June 19.

Two state lawmakers who represent Princeton weighed in on the budget impasse. State Sen. Kip Bateman, (R-Mercer, Hunterdon, Middlesex and Somerset) said on June 18 that he thought it “could be an interesting end of June.”

“The last thing you

Passaic), the chairman of the Senate Budget and Appropriations Committee.

In their plan, lawmakers have proposed a twoyear hike of the corporate business tax, taxing the sale of liquid nicotine, and putting a 30-cent surcharge on ride-sharing services, among other things.

Their plan does not call for a millionaire’s tax or a sales tax.

Howard sees similarities between now and 2006.

“It is eerie that 12 years later, we’re having the same intra-party issues about how to fix structural problems and the deficit, how to fund priority programs,” she said.

A deadline to act is fast approaching. The state operates on a fiscal year calendar that ends June 30, which is the deadline to pass a budget and avert a government shutdown. In Corzine’s case, the closure lasted from July 1 to July 8. For New Jersey, it was

uncharted waters.

In recalling that time, Howard said Corzine officials “were heavily involved in what happens to government operations when there is a shutdown.”

They had to figure what services were essential and what weren’t, she said.

“There was a lot of operational work on the executive branch side that isn’t very visible, necessarily, to the public,” she said.

For local governments, a state government shutdown would delay when they could receive state funds.

“I think the biggest issue, of course, would be that if we don’t have a signed, balanced budget in place, that means the funding isn’t authorized or certified, which means local governments that rely upon funding from the state have to wait for any of that funding,” said Mike Cerra, assistant executive director of the New Jersey League of Municipalities,

within a three-year period, a school district may apply to the Commissioner of Education to approve the issuance of bonds for the local share of the project,” Bamford said by email.

She said the most recent case of the commissioner overriding the results of a referendum occurred in 2016 in the Freehold Borough K-8 School District in Monmouth County.

Princeton officials would not close the door to that possibility should local voters reject two ballot questions.

“This is a community that has always supported education,” Cochrane said.

“I’m going to continue to share information, to listen to feedback, to give people as much information as possible. And we’ll cross that bridge if we come to it.

At this point, I’m just steering toward Oct. 2.”

“We haven’t thought that far ahead, because we have every expectation this referendum will pass,” board President Patrick Sullivan said by phone on June 19. “I believe this is a good plan.” 00256889.0217.03x10.18.BeckerNose&Sinus.indd

want to do is close the state down,” he said after attending a bill signing with Murphy at a public school in Princeton. “I’m hopeful.

I’m always a glass half-full kind of individual. I just think that right now people are digging their heels in with the governor and the Senate President (Stephen M. Sweeney).”

Assemblyman Andrew Zwicker (D-Mercer, Hunterdon, Middlesex and Somerset), said he was optimistic.

“I am confident we are going to get a budget passed and we’re not going to have a shutdown,” Zwicker said. “There’s discussions not so much on funding priorities, but on the revenue side.”

Referendum Continued from Page 1A he was “hopeful” the referendum would pass in October.

“But we go back, we look at the plans, we talk to the public and we resubmit,” Cochrane said when asked what the district would do if the referendum is defeated.

Under that scenario, he said, the district would look to have another referendum “within probably six months or so.”

“There are 700 to 800 students coming here in the

next 10 years; we have to do something,” Cochrane said.

In New Jersey, voters do not have the final say, however. Janet Bamford, a spokeswoman for the New Jersey School Boards Association, outlined what state law allows if a referendum failed at the ballot box.

“However, if the referendum would have supported a ‘T&E’ capital project, one necessary to provide a ‘thorough and efficient’ education, as mandated by the New Jersey State Constitution, and it fails twice

THE STATE WE’RE IN

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.

SOLUTIONS

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 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, plogging 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.

Discussions contributing to the town’s climate action plan As part of Princeton’s Town Climate Action Plan, which is focused on preserving our local environments, and doing our part to slow, and eventually, halt climate change, Sustainable Princeton held another community conversation, to solicit views on what issues need to be addressed and what solutions should be adopted.

Sustainable Princeton, along with many area residents, is acutely aware of the environmental challenges facing us all. The environmental challenges that we see around us and read about are growing more serious, so that the need for action is also growing more urgent.

To emphasize this global situation, two recent news reports highlighted the need for action. One was the alarming study that found Antarctic ice is disappearing three times faster than had been determined only back in 2011. This melting is producing enough water to cover the state of Texas by 13 feet, or by the end of the century, increase sea level rise globally by half a foot.

The second story appearing in this week’s national news was Pope Francis’s warning to oil industry executives that climate change may well destroy civilization.

“Our desire to ensure energy for all, must not lead to the undesired effect of extreme climate changes,” the pontiff said.

Despite awareness of the increasing warming, the busy public’s concern seems inconsistent. The turnout for Sustainable

Princeton’s Saturday morning’s town meeting at the Suzanne Paterson Building was relatively light. On the other hand, a number of university students made the effort to attend. They recognize that it is their future they must think about and plan for.

Those attending the meeting were broken up into three groups with each raising and discussing views of the most important issues facing the town. Among the issues the first group raised were water and water run-off. Recent heavy storms flooded streets, houses and university buildings, overwhelming sewage or run-off systems.

A variety of solutions to deal with these unprecedented volumes of water are clearly necessary. Also coming with this spring’s heavy rain, were increased mosquitoes and ticks and the diseases they carry. Additionally the storms knocked down trees and power lines, so that strategies to both reduce, or mitigate, the impacts, and respond or build in resiliency, are also clearly necessary.

Much of the increasing heat in our environment comes, of course, from our energy usage, and the emissions of heat-trapping gases. How to become more efficient in energy usage was an issue raised by many of the attendees.

The second group, considering energy usage, recommended looking at changing transportation systems, and particularly at biking. But to increase the number of bik-

ers in the town and university, issues of safety and infrastructure (bike lanes, bike racks, fewer cars, more efficient bus usage) all must be addressed first. Also, should public parking lots for automobiles be encouraged or reduced?

Other issues raised included the impact of our food chains and the transportation that supports them. At the same time, social equality was an issue that several residents voiced the need to address. Not everyone in a community has the same or similar access to efficient housing and transportation.

The resulting inequities and costs should be acknowledged and balanced. The group also raised the issue of solar panels as important in energy planning.

The third group saw the importance of bringing students into the discussion, particularly when it effects school transportation, but also in relation to general town traffic patterns. And because some of these transportation changes will require changes in behavior – such as not immediately driving to shop or meet – changes in awareness or attitudes will need to be adopted.

Other members of this group raised the issue of plastics and how to reduce their widespread usage. They not only blight the landscapes but foul our waterways, and create disposal problems. This group saw the importance of weaning kids off of plastics early, because long-time habits

are more difficult to break. Other members raised the issue, or need, to change construction materials to more efficient, greener alternatives.

Finally, a general discussion around energy use in New Jersey followed. Commercial usage, including power plants (a case where New Jersey is relatively clean) nonetheless accounts for 45 percent to half of energy expenditures. Transportation is next, producing 32-33 percent of energy expenditures. Housing, construction and occupancy, was next, but seems to present comparatively simple options to reduce energy expenditures.

As the town of Princeton gains data on its greenhouse gas emissions, the town and its residents will develop a clearer picture of what changes and reductions need to be implemented. Fortunately the town can access information and solutions from others towns, and share what it discovers here.

But because the problems and their solutions are often inter-related and complex, it is important that many local citizens, with different experience, express views and participate in the discussions and solutions. Sustainable Princeton will continue to provide a forum, to share those views and gain information which can help improve the health of our town and its environment.

of the Princeton Democratic Municipal Committee (PDMC) also helpfully provided information on the election process to the candidates, and offered an opportunity for all of us to address PDMC members.

The participation of Adam Bierman, Michelle Pirone Lambros, Surinder Sharma, Alvin McGowen and Myrtha Jasmin in this highly competitive primary election showed the openness of the Democratic party in Princeton to candidates with a wide range of ideas for the betterment of Princeton. I urge them to remain involved in the life of our town by bringing their energy, experience and skills to service as a volunteer on one of the many municipal boards, committees or commissions.

I owe so much to the members of my fabulous campaign team, who brought great ideas to the table and then worked many, many hours to bring those ideas to fruition. I absolutely could not have done this without you! Thank you also to all who helped by making phone calls or going door-to-door, hosting a coffee or fundraiser, placing a yard sign on their lawn, talking to or emailing friends and neighbors on my behalf, contributing to the campaign, helping with mailings, or signing my endorsement ad. Many, many people played a role in this campaign, which I believe attests to the passion that Princetonians have about our community and our desire to make it better.

Finally, thank you to all who took the time to share with me the issues and concerns that are important to you and to our town, whether during scheduled meetings or in an impromptu fashion as I went door to door. I have learned so much from so many of you and really appreciate your

commitment to our community. I hope that you will continue to provide your input and your wisdom as we move forward.

To those who voted for me on June 5, I am honored by your trust and your faith in me and I promise that I will work hard to live up to it - as well as to earn your vote in November.

sues of immigration.

President Trump’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy on the southern border as set forth has legalized child abuse and the kidnapping of children. The Trump administration’s Gestapo tactics must stop immediately. These tactics are emblematic of some of our darkest moments in American and world history.

Today, the public outrage and public shaming of the President Trump and his administration have finally caused the Mr. Trump to revoke his misguided policy through an executive order which he previously stated he had no ability to do. The problem is far from solved. However, we must never forget who created this humanitarian crisis.

This is America. It has been a beacon of hope for the world for over two hundred years and despite the current policies and actions of the Trump Administration the goodness of this nation will prevail.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Thanks for your support To the editor: Thank you to all who voted in the June 5 primary election for Princeton Council, and congratulations to Dwaine Williamson, my fellow Democratic nominee, and to Lisa Wu, the Republican nominee. I also want to thank the Executive Board of the Princeton Community Democratic Organization (PCDO), and in particular President Jean Durbin, for providing information about the campaign process to the candidates, and for hosting a debate so that we could present ourselves and our platforms to PCDO members.

Trump’s ‘zero tolerance’ policy is unjust To the editor: I write this letter as an educator of over 45 years serving children and the communities of Lawrence Township, Flemington Raritan, and Cranbury Township school districts as a teacher, principal, chief school administrator and completed my career at The College of New Jersey as Director Emeritus of the Office of Support for Teacher Education and Global Student Teaching. In those roles my number one responsibility was to protect the safety and wellbeing of all the children and staff entrusted to my care.

I am outraged personally and professionally by the immoral “zero tolerance” immigration policies promulgated by the President of The United States, Donald Trump, his administration, and especially Attorney General Jefferson Beauregard Sessions and advisor Stephen Miller. Their decisions and policies now terrorize the children and parents seeking asylum at our southern border. Surely there exists a more humane approach to dealing with the is-

MERCER COUNTY NOTES

Learn more about your local lichens during a guided, educational walk with lichenologist Dennis Waters on June 30.

Explore lives of lichens at Mercer County Park

The Mercer County Park Commission will host lichenologist Dennis Waters on Saturday, June 30, from 10 a.m. to noon, as he unveils the mysterious lichens commonly found throughout our natural world.

Waters will lead two hours of exploration along the wooded trails of Mercer County Park, shedding light on the strange lifestyles and ecological importance of lichens.

Hanging hauntingly from the branches of trees, providing bursts of color in an otherwise barren and toxic copper mine, and adorning the presidents of Mount Rushmore with 5 o’clock shadows, lichens can be found thriving in nearly all of earth’s environments. Their incredible ability to grow almost anywhere, including inside solid rock, has enabled lichens to cover 5 percent of earth’s land surface.

Most people never think twice about these unassuming, undervalued life forms commonly seen as grayish-green patches on tree trunks, but Waters will be bringing lichens into the spotlight.

Waters is a lichenologist, member of the British Lichen Society and the American Bryological and Lichenological Society, and Lawrence Township Historian. He

has played an active role in major lichenological field surveys, traveling from the South Atlantic Coastal Plains of Georgia to the Gaspé Peninsula in Quebec. He has been studying and cataloging the variety of lichens found in Mercer County parks.

During this walk, Waters will teach you how to identify some of the common lichens that he knows so well, as well as teach about the ecological importance, behaviors and lifestyles of lichens. This fun and informative walk will take place next to the Caspersen Rowing Center. Please wear appropriate footwear and bring water.

This program is free and suitable for teens and adults. To register, call the Nature Programs at (609) 888-3218 or register online by following this link: https:// goo.gl/forms/.

Mercer County Clerk’s Office back on S. Broad St.

Renovations have finished being made to the Mercer County Courthouse Annex which was previously home to several offices including the Mercer County Clerk.

The County Clerk’s office will return to its permanent location at 209 South Broad Street starting July 27 and will reopen on July 31. Safety concerns prompted the

Mercer County Improvement Authority to make renovations to the courthouse annex with the approval of the County Freeholders. The Courthouse was built in 1909.

The Mercer County Clerk’s office, which temporarily moved to 240 W. State St. in January 2016, will be moving back to 209 S. Broad St. on July 31. Candidates filing school election petitions should still file School Election Petitions should file them at 240 W. State St. on the seventh floor on Monday, July 30 by the 4 p.m. deadline.

In the newly modernized Courthouse Annex, the Clerk’s office will be providing services in similar fashion as it was conducted previously. The first floor is where you can record property, obtain a passport, register a small business, and be sworn in as a notary public. The second floor will be designated for Elections and County ID departments. The Mercer County Record Rooms, which is home to thousands of deeds, mortgages, and other essential records, will be on both the first and second floor of the annex. The passport office, however, will be separate from the other offices.

Mercer County Clerk Paula Sollami Covello and her staff are committed to doing everything possible to make the transition as smooth as possible. “We will still provide the same fast and efficient services our constituents have grown accustomed to on West State Street,” she said.

The public is encouraged to visit the renovated Courthouse Annex to obtain office services, including Vote-By-Mail ballots for the November general election.

Please feel free to reach out to my office at (609) 989-6465 or (609) 989-6353 with any questions or concerns and we will do our best to assist you in addressing these

matters.

Lastly, please remember that our mailing address will remain at PO Box 8068, Trenton, NJ 08608.

Lucius Wilmerding

Eleanor Marie Marttila, 91,

Lucius Wilmerding of Old Lyme CT died May 25.

Eleanor Marie Marttila, 91, of Doylestown, passed away peacefully on June 16, 2018.

A graduate of Milton Academy and Princeton University, he worked for the United States Trust Company before moving to Princeton with Adela where they raised their children.

Born to the late Stanley and Myrtle Diener, in Port Providence, PA, Eleanor graduated from Phoenixville High School in 1944. She married Gordon Eric Marttila in 1951, and they lived together near West Chester, PA and later in Lawrenceville, NJ.

He served on the boards of Princeton Day School, the Stony Brook Millstone Watershed Association and the YMCA’s Sloane House, New York.

Eleanor’s progeny comprises: three sons -- Eric (Susan), Paul, and Kurt; seven grandchildren – Joshua, Zachary (Katie), Jessica, Andrew, Susannah, Teddy, and Elizabeth; and one great grandson, Westley.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Gordon and only sibling, Harry Diener.

Contributions may be made to the Old Lyme Land Trust or an organization of your choice in his name.

His Memorial Service will be held July 28th at 1pm in the First Congregational Church of Old Lyme.

Eleanor will be remembered by family and friends alike as being loving, loyal, supportive, highly intelligent and incredibly funny.

Eleanor began her career in 1944 as a medical secretary at Valley Forge Army Hospital, where she met her future husband, Gordon. Other professions included legal secretary, medical transcriptionist and assistant in the Lawrenceville School’s Alumni & Development Office. After about 60 years of work, interrupted only by spending time raising her sons when they were young, Eleanor retired in 2011, at age 84.

She was passionate about doing all that she could for her family and beloved friends. She enjoyed watching men’s college basketball and Sunday afternoon bocce just outside her back porch, but the sporting events she loved most of all were baseball games in which her sons and grandsons competed. From Little League through college, she attended thousands of games. She was also a lifelong lover of animals, particularly cats, of which she had many.

Eleanor leaves behind the best possible legacy -- that of a life lived to the fullest.

Relatives and friends were invited to her funeral service, 12 p.m., Wednesday, June 20 at Reed and Steinbach Funeral Home, 2335 Lower State Road, Doylestown where the family received guests from 11 a.m., until the time of the service. Followed Interment at Doylestown Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial contributions in Eleanor’s name be made to: St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, 501 St. Jude Place Memphis, TN 38105-1905 (https://www.stjude.org)/.

Natayan, WW-P North earn All-America track status

By Bob Nuse Sports Editor

It is the dream of every track and field athlete-earning an AllAmerica status.

That dream became a reality last weekend for Princeton High’s Varun Narayan, the Little Tigers’ 4x1-mile relay, and the four members of the West WindsorPlainsboro North High 4x1-mile relay team.

Narayan placed sixth in the long jump, while the West Windsor-Plainsboro North relay team finished first in its event at the New Balance Nationals, which were held in Greensboro, N.C. this past weekend.

The Princeton team finished fifth in the relay.

The top six finishers in each event earn All-America status.

“They definitely had the potential,” West Windsor-Plainsboro North coach Brian Gould said of the relay team of Matthew Santamaria, Luke Johnson, Vedang Lad and Atharv Kulkarni.

“The same relay was seventh at this meet last year. Going into this year they were hungry to improve on that. Getting a medal there is tough. They hadn’t talked about where they wanted to place until the night before. They were at dinner and Vedam said let’s go win it.

“It’s not easy for all four to

have their best day at the same time. It is really tough, especially in a relay that long. If someone is really off in the first leg that can put you in a position that is tough to come back from.”

Last Sunday morning none of the four runners for the Knights had a bad day. The relay finished in 17:19.69, which is is the best time in the country this year and the third fastest in New Jersey history. It was also the first time the school has won a relay event at the outdoor nationals.

Former West Windsor-Plainsboro North runner Joe Rosa won the two-mile in 2010 and the boys won the 4x1-mile at indoor nationals in 2009.

“When I was looking at all the teams entered, there is a team from Loudon Valley in Virginia and they won indoor nationals,” Gould said. “I was looking through all the teams and saw Princeton and thought they might win. They have four tremendous runners who are tough and nice kids. They were a team I though would be the best competition.

I thought our guys would be third, fourth or fifth best but they stepped up and over performed.”

Princeton’s Narayan earned All-America status with his sixthplace finish in the long jump, finishing with a jump of 23-feet, 2.5-inches. The 4x1-mile relay of Will Hare, Jackson McCarthy,

Nick Delaney and Tucker Zullo finished fifth in 17:33.92.

“It was great,” Narayan said.

“It was not something I expected earlier in the season. I think we had a meet at (WW-P) North early in May and that was first time I broke 23-feet. Once I did that I looked at the old records and saw what all the All-American’s had done and saw I needed to get 23-2 or 23-3 to get All-America and that was when I thought I had a shot and that was when it became my main goal. Earlier on it just getting there. But then the goal became to get into the top six.”

At the end of the spring season a year ago Narayan began to feel like he could be an elite long jumper and this year he proved it.

“Last year at the Meet of Champs, I fouled on all three of my jumps and I had been in the high 22s, which would have been my PR by a foot,” he said. “I used that as motivation throughout the fall and winter to break 23.”

In other events for Princeton, the boys’ sprint medley relay (Nils Wildberg, Matt Perello, Jack Whetstone and Delaney) ran 3:31.11 to break the school record by two tenths of a second.

The Princeton girls’ 4×400 relay (Jackie Patterson, Colleen Linko, Gabrielle Goddard, Raina Williamson) ran 3:54.92 to finish third in the Emerging Elite section. Patterson

closed out her high school career with a huge personal best split of 56.26 on the anchor leg.

Patterson, Linko, Goddard and Williamson also qualified for the prestigious Swedish Relay Championship (100/200/300/400), the first time PHS has ever qualified to compete in the event. The girls ran 2:18.86, finishing 13th.

“Everyone on our team was working hard throughout the season,” Narayan said. “All the throwers, sprinters, jumpers and distance runners worked so hard this year. Hard work is contagious and you know you have to push yourself as hard or harder than everyone else.

“It was a great last meet of the season. Everyone was going to have fun and show what they’ve got. The conditions were not great for a PR. The conditions were really hot. we were also competing in front of so many people. I thought we handled the pressure well. Gabby Goddard is a freshman and she did really.

Ben Kioko was at his first year at nationals and he finished 13th in the javelin. A lot of people did really well this season.”

Kioko placed 13th in the javelin with a distance of 181-09, while Wildberg was 15th in the long jump (22-4.25).

Montgomery’s Keller enjoys Basilone Bowl experience

By Bob Nuse Sports Editor

Will Keller was excited to get one last chance to represent Montgomery High on the football field.

And he was also pleased to get one more chance to let opposing offenses know not to take him lightly despite standing just 5-foot-9.

Keller was one of seven Montgomery High seniors to participate in the sixth annual Basilone Bowl, which was played at Bridgewater-Raritan High School on June 14.

The annual all-star football game pits players from Somerset County high schools against each other before the players all head off to life after high school.

The Montgomery players were part of the Leather Necks team that emerged with a 21-3

victory over the Devil Dogs.

“It was a fun game,” said Keller, a defensive back who had several pass breakups in the game. “It went a lot better than I thought. It was a fun experience. It took a little getting used to learning the defense in a day or two and practicing for just a day or two. We had two practices and walk through and then we played the game.”

Keller, who will play defensive back at William Paterson University, was joined in the game by Montgomery teammates Christian Boyle, Reese Clark, Ryan Cocuzzo, Kyle Kuminski, Dempsey Shovlin and Chandler Turner.

“I was happy that I got to play with these guys one more time,” Keller said. “That was fun. It was great being able to go out and enjoy the game. When the regu-

lar season ended I didn’t take the time to enjoy it like I should have and after a week I missed it. This was good to get to play with these guys again.

“It was interesting to watch a guy like Kyle Kuminski. He won’t be playing college football but he enjoyed the game and it was fun to get to play with him one more time.”

Keller found himself being targeted on defense much like he was during the regular season.

And like he did during the regular season, he came through with some big plays.

“For me it was great,” he said. “Usually during the season get put out there one on one and people test me and they see what happens. I don’t look like much because I am a guy who is 5-9 going against a 6-5 receiver. But when the receiver doesn’t come

down with the ball, they are usually shocked.”

Keller has been working out since the football season ended in November as he prepares to play at the NCAA Division 3 college in Wayne. He’s anxious to get to school and get started.

“I have been working out and preparing all year because I am going to play college ball, so I felt like I was in the best shape I could be in,” Keller said. “Ever since the regular season ended I have been keeping myself in shape.

“This game was fun playing with guys who we had gone up against during the season. You get to know them and realize they are good guys and you become friends. It was definitely an experience I will remember. A lot of the guys I has been rivals with recently and I got to know them and become friends.”

The Princeton Packet 9A

Johnson hoping for summer hoops success

By Bob Nuse Sports Editor

Zavon Johnson used the first week of the Princeton Recreation Men’s Summer Basketball League to get an indication of what life on the court will be like when he is part of a basketball tour later this summer.

Johnson played for the Packer Hall All-Stars a year ago in the Princeton League and opened this season with the same team.

But after one game, the West Windsor-Plainsboro High South graduate made a move to the NJ Spiritwear entry in the league.

“This team has a lot of young guys who get after it,” Johnson said after helping his new team to a 68-52 win over Gomo Health on Wednesday night at Princeton Community Park.

“They all play defense and talk on the court and we’re all on the same page. I am excited to be out here and playing with a lot of energy. I think we make a great combo.”

Johnson just finished a standout career air Stockton University and he has no intentions of slowing down on the basketball court. He’s back playing in the Princeton league, this year with a team that he thinks can contend for a championship. And he also has plans for basketball beyond the summer.

“I am trying to play,” Johnson said. “I am going on a tour in September. I have two tours. One is in Barbados and the other is in Australia. Other than that I am just looking for a job.

I want to teach and coach a little bit, too.”

Johnson’s 16 points

After helping the Packer Hall All-Stars win the Princeton Recreation Men’s Summer Basketball League last summer, Zavon Johnson enjoyed an outstanding senior season at Stockton University. helped Packer Hall open the season with a 72-56 victory over league newcomer Apex Sports on Monday.

Rafiq Williams also deliv-

ered 16 points, while Nick Bracket scored 12 in the triumph. Jeff Dzierzawicz hit for 19 points and Kenny Gan sank 15 in the loss for

Apex Sports.

On Wednesday he scored 20 points to go along with 23 from Lorenzo Spinazzi and 14 from

John McArthur in the win over Gomo Health, which received 11 points from Trey Murrill and 10 from Michel Nofal.

Johnson comes into the summer after a successful senior year at Stockton. He earned New Jersey Athletic Conference Honorable Mention honors after starting all 25 games at guard and scoring a careerhigh 12.9 points per game, which was second on the team.

Johnson finished with a team-high 61 three-pointers and finished second on the Ospreys in field goal percentage (.432), assists (2.5 apg) and free throw percentage (.776).

A deadly three-point shooter in the Princeton Summer League, Johnson averaged 2.4 threes per game (second in NJAC) and committed just 24 turnovers in 25 games while playing 32 minutes per contest.

In his final game at Stockton, Johnson poured in a career-best 25 points in an 87-66 victory over New Jersey City on 9-15 (.600) shooting including 7-10 (.700) from behind the arc.

He finished his career tied for 10th in Stockton history with 140 career threepointers.

“I was happy,” said Johnson, who will also be playing in leagues in Sea Isle City and Ocean City this summer. “For this season, I had to step up. We had some unfortunate situations with our team so I stepped right up. Next man up was our mentality. Our coaches prepped us for that the whole time I was at Stockton. My teammates

gave me the confidence and the courage to go out and do what I did this year.”

He’s looking forward to his opportunities in the fall as well, where he hopes to open a few eyes towards what could be a professional career.

“It’s 10 days and in those 10 days you play about eight games,” Johnson said of the tours. “So you get to travel and sightsee and also play against other competition. I am playing on a team full of kids from Michigan, California and some other states. So it is a nice group of kids. There will be scouts there. Some of the guys play for fun, but most of us are going out there looking at it as a tryout. If they like you they call you back.”

In other games during Monday’s opening night of play, Majeski Foundation topped Gomo Health, 47-32 as Jordan Glover and Liam Byrne led a balanced offense with eight points apiece. Nofal finished with 20 points in the loss. Loyaltees got past NJ Spiritwear, 60-55, as Davon Black and Nick Davidson scored 14 points each.

Eric Murdock produced 12 points in the victory. Troy Jones recorded 14 points, while McArthur and Spinazzi scored 10 points each.

In the other two games on Wednesday, Majeski Foundation topped Cure Insurance, 80-51, as Jordan Glover scored 29 points and Randy Walko added 14. Junior Alexis had 20 points in the loss. Loyaltees topped Packer Hall, 52-44, as Davidson scored 25 points to lead the way. Khalid Lewis had 18 points in the loss.

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.

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.

Is your vehicle ready for that Road Trip?

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.

CRS, e-PRO, ASP, SRS, Sales Associate, Realtor Office: 609-924-1600

Here I am with my family.

Jonathan, Abigail, Laurel, and my husband Tom.

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.
