Universal Display Corporation is innovating with foldable screens

Brother and sister are two of the newest officers to join the Ewing Police Department

By DiCCon Hyatt Despite all the advances in smartphone technology since 2008, the actual shape of an antique first generation iPhone doesn’t look remarkably different from today’s advanced models, aside from being a bit smaller and squatter. Every phone is still a slim, glassy rectangle just like it has been for the last decade. But Universal Display Corporation, the Ewing-based company that developed the phosphorescent organic LED technology that is used in high-end cell phone screens, is paving the way to what some believe will be a new era in wild electronics screen designs: foldable, rollable and flexible models that will soon hit the market. Designers can now realistically dream of creating a tablet computer that rolls up to the size of a pen. Among those who have dreamed of having a single device that combined the portability and pocketability of a phone with the large screen of a tablet is Michael Hack, vice president and general manager of OLED lighting and custom displays at UDC. Hack, who has worked with the company for 20 years, is a scientist who earned his doctorate at Cambridge University in England and has helped UDC create the tiny, extremely bright and See UDC, Page 8

Dearden to retire after 32 years By Justin Feil Shelly Dearden was still a star athlete at Ewing High School when she decided what she wanted to do. “I know in high school a lot of kids don’t know what they want, but I knew I wanted to be a teacher,” Dearden said. “I wanted to help kids and be there for kids from high school on. I

guess I’m one of the lucky ones.” Others will say the lucky ones are those that were taught or played for Dearden, who announced that she is retiring from coaching and teaching after more than three decades— the last 32 years with her alma mater EHS— before her Blue Devils boys basketball team headed into the Central Jersey Group III state tournament.

“I just feel that I’m ready,” Dearden said. “It’s time. You know when you’re ready. You know when it’s time. It’s hard to explain. You just know. I put in all these years, so I’m ready.” Dearden was a winner as a player and coach. She is already in the Ewing High School Hall of Fame as a three-sport athlete, The College of New Jersey See DEARDEN Page 6

If you were to call the Ewing Township Police Department and ask for Officer Arnold, you’d be asked which one. And if you said “The new one,” you’d be asked the same question again. While it might not be exactly uncommon for siblings to be police officers or even serve in the same police department, it is a little less common that they graduate the academy together and start work the same day. “We’ve had a lot of family members here,” said Police Chief John Stemler. “Uncles and nephews. My father was a lieutenant here. But as far as I know, this is the first time I’m aware of two siblings going through the academy together.” That, by the way, only refers to officers entering the Ewing Police Department. The 20th class of the Mercer County Police Academy had 59 graduates, including the brother and sister team of Stephen and Chelsea Arnold and a second set of siblings—twin brothers George and Christian Suarez, who are now serving in the Trenton Police Department. Chelsea and Stephen Arnold. were half of the new Ewing recruits who started work in See POLICE, Page 10

Insurance companies do not always voluntarily pay what is owed. Therefore, an injured worker needs to file a formal Claim Petition and should seek the services of an experienced Certified Workers’ Compensation attorney. Issues to consider when hiring an attorney for a workers’ compensation case: Is the attorney a Certified Workers’ Compensation attorney? The Supreme Court of New Jersey has established a certification program designed to assist the consumer in making an informed selection of counsel. In New Jersey there are only 121 attorneys that have demonstrated sufficient levels of experience, education, and knowledge in the practice of workers’ compensation law to receive this certification. Pellettieri Rabstein & Altman has attorneys that have been certified by the New Jersey Board on Attorney Certification by the New Jersey Supreme Court. What is the attorney’s reputation in the community and among his/her peers? An injured worker wants to know that his/ her claim is being handled by an attorney who is well respected by the community, as well as by other workers’ compensation attorneys and the judge who will preside over the case. Attorneys in the Workers’ Compensation department at PR&A have consistently been designated as Best Lawyers®. 2Ewing Obser ver | April 2019

regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence because their lists are based on peer-review evaluation.1

Less than 2% of the almost 98,000 lawyers in the State of New Jersey receive this designation and there are only 19 recipients in the field of Workers’ Compensation Law – Claimants (i.e. representing workers). For years, Pellettieri Rabstein & Altman has been ranked and continues to be ranked in the 2019 U.S. News - Best Lawyers® "Best Law Firms" list. Law firms on the "Best Law Firms" list are recognized for professional excellence with persistently impressive ratings from clients and peers.2 A client may engage a workers’ compensation attorney at Pellettieri Rabstein & Altman that holds an AV Preeminent Ratings from MartindaleHubbell. Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ recognize lawyers for their strong legal ability and high ethical standards.3 Only an elite group of approximately 10 percent of all attorneys holds an AV Preeminent Rating. The Chairman of the Workers’ Compensation department, Gary Adams, is respected locally, regionally, and nationally as a leading attorney in this specialized field. He has been included in the lists of Best Lawyers®, Super Lawyers® and he is rated AV by Martindale-Hubbell, the highest attorney rating given by that organization. He is also the immediate past chair of the New Jersey State Bar Association Workers’ Compensation Section. He is a Senior Vice President of the New Jersey Advisory Council on Safety and Health (COSH).

A client needs to be reassured that his claim is being handled by the attorney with the training, experience, skills and reputation in the area of workers’ compensation law. At Pellettieri, Rabstein and Altman, a client will meet directly with the attorney at initial consultation and in advance of any court proceedings. The attorney will return phone calls, answer questions, and answer e-mails. While paralegals assist the attorney in handling the case, every case is overseen by an attorney. What will my lawyer charge for handling my workers’ compensation case? In New Jersey, the fees in a workers’ compensation case are set by the Workers’ Compensation Judge. The Judge may award a contingent attorney fee of up to 20% of the amount recovered on a client’s claim, and that is the amount that is typically awarded. At Pellettieri, Rabstein, and Altman there is no upfront fee for consulting with a workers’ compensation attorney regarding a work injury. All fees are a contingent fee set by the Judge based on obtaining a positive result. Fees are the same for any workers’ compensation attorney you hire, therefore you want to hire the most capable attorney – one who can maximize your recovery. ** No aspect of this advertisement has been approved by the Supreme Court of New Jersey. 1 www.bestlawyers.com/methodology 2 https://bestlawfirms.usnews.com/methodology.aspx 3 www.martindale.com/ratings-and-reviews

CUNJ donates to SERV technology center

Trenton Water Works is holding a public forum for residents who want to learn more about their drinking water on April 3, from 7-9 p.m. at the Ewing Senior and Community Center at 999 Lower Ferry Road. Representatives from TWW will be on hand to answer question about water quality, operations, and the Lead Service Line Replacement Program to replace certain water-service lines with safer copper lines at residences throughout the utiliy’s service area. For those who cannot attend the Ewing forum, TWW will hold events on April 10, from 7-9 p.m. at Stony Brook Elementary School in Pennington, and in Lawrence on April 24, from 7-9 p.m. at Lawrence Senior Center. Mayor Bert Steinmann, in a recent interview with the Observer, said that TWW has made strides in recent months, but still has work to do. He added: “Do I like some of the results that are still coming? No, obviously not. I don’t think anybody does. But I think that they’re trying to get a handle on the situation.” Steinmann said the thinks the communities served by TWW need to have some level of involvement with the way its run. “There should be some sort of avenue for the municipalities to have a seat at the table—not necessarily a

SERV Behavioral Health System, based on Scotch Road, is a private statewide, not-for-profit behavioral healthcare organization serving adults and children working to recover from a serious mental illness or cope with a developmental disability. “We are extremely grateful for this extraordinary gift from the Credit Union of New Jersey Foundation,” said Regina Widdows, president/CEO of SERV. “We recognized a strong need to provide our consumers as well as our staff with technology training.” With up to 50 working computer stations, the SERV Technology Center aims to improve technological and financial literacy in both its company and consumers.

Shelly Dearden coaches Ewing players during a 2017 Moody Park League game at Ewing High School. (File photo by by Martin Griff.) DEARDEN continued from Page 1 Hall of Fame as a womens’ player, and will be inducted April 7 into the Mercer County Basketball Hall of Fame as part of the second class ever. She was the first female player to score 1,000 points in her Ewing High School career. Dearden made history as the first coach to have coached teams in three different sports to state championships. She took the EHS girls soccer team to the 1991 title, the EHS girls basketball team to the 1999 crown, and the EHS boys basketball team to the 2012 state title. As a competitor, she was thrilled by each of those teams, but it’s not those successes for which she wants remembered. “I want them to remember the kids and me being able to help the kids over the years,” Dearden said. “There are so many of them. I did it for them. I already had my heyday when I played in high school and college. “It’s about the players and my assistant coaches and the people along the way. Hopefully I’m remembered as a person who dedicated herself to the kids and the players and was a person who was there for them.” Dearden also coached the women’s soccer team at Mercer County Community College for 12 seasons and a season each of softball at MCCC and volleyball at Rider University before returning to focus on Ewing teams. After a 15-10 2019 season that ended with a 67-62 loss to Wall in the CJ III semifinals, Dearden exits with 531 victories split between coaching the Ewing girls’ team and boys’ teams. Her impact, however, can’t be measured in games or victories. “How do you put that into words? In 32 years, how many kids do you impact? How do you put any type of quantitative measure on that? It’s not possible to put

that into any type of measure or words,” said Ewing athletic director Bud Kowal. “I don’t think there’s any question she puts in as much time and works as hard any one could. Her work ethic is pretty significant.” Kowal saw it first-hand when Dearden made waves when she took over the boys basketball team in 2004. The decision to hire a woman to coach a boys sport was met with some skepticism. “In the beginning, the first couple years the teams weren’t very good, and you’d hear some of that,” Kowal said. “Winning is great medicine for that. If you win, no one cares if you’re a man or woman or black, white, purple, or green.” Dearden was aware of the challenges that came with the new job. She had coached her three sons in basketball, baseball and soccer, but the high school job came with elevated expectations. “I felt I had to put in more time because there were so many skeptics out there, and so many questioning me getting the job that I had to do more,” Dearden said. “I had to go out there and be accepted being a woman coaching boys’ basketball.” She adds that even today having a woman coaching a boys team is not always accepted. “That’s the way some people were brought up,” she said. “It sounds old school cliché that the woman stays at home and does those types of things. I know society has changed, but there are still people out there that believe women shouldn’t be coaching boys, and there’s still people out there that believe I shouldn’t have been on the sidelines.” Behind the scenes, Dearden had the support of Kowal and the EHS administration, and she had a supportive crew at home with husband John and their three sons. “My husband deserves all the

credit in the world for my children and being the good kids they are and young men they are,” Dearden said. “He’s the one that was there while I was coaching. All the accolades I’m receiving, he really deserves them more so because he took care of business at home for me.” They still live in Ewing where she grew up and had the chance to come back to coach and teach. “That meant a great deal,” Dearden said. “Many, many years ago, Barb Brower (long-time Fisher Middle School principal who retired in 2017)—who’s a friend of mine and we went to high school together—and I said we’ll come back to coach Ewing. My first year coaching for the girls, she was my assistant coach. And then she eventually coached at the 7th and 8th grade level because that’s where she was teaching. It was in our minds back in high school that I would hopefully some day come back and coach here.” Coaching in the same town where she grew up, played sports and went to school was a plus for her. It helped when she got into coaching. “It was great because I had an advantage, knowing the town, knowing the people, knowing the community is a sports minded community, it helped quite a bit,” she said. “It helped also when I became the boys coach, because some people already knew who I was and the success I had as a girls coach. You still have your skeptics, you always have your skeptics, but it helped when I did receive the job as boys coach, being from the area and being in the

community.” She says she is proud that the Ewing teams she coached continued a winning tradition that took her back to her childhood. It was important to her as an alumna and coach. “I’m just happy that I was able to do it, and instill rules and regulations and discipline and commitment and dedication that get lost in the world of today,” Dearden said. “Hopefully they understand what that means and what commitment means. “I think they do when you see all the alumni that come back and the Ewing tradition. It was strong when I was a player here, when I went away to college and watched and when I came back. That’s one thing I was happy to do, that I was able to continue that tradition.” Ewing already knew it had a winner when it hired her as a pioneer. Dearden continued to win when she moved over to the boys side. “I think she would agree with this, it was much more important to coach the kids and be successful and win games then to prove that as a woman she could do all those things,” Kowal said. “I don’t think that she was trying to show a woman could do it had anything to do with it. She wanted to be the best coach and teacher and prove that the team was able to win.” Dearden will conclude her career in special education teaching at the end of the school year. Her basketball duties won’t end until a new hire is made. Her job was posted even before EHS concluded its season. She is hoping by the

99th Spring

time the Moody Park League starts in the summer, a successor will be in place. “I’m hoping they will name someone before then so that when someone new comes in they can experience Moody Park,” Dearden said. “I’ll encourage the new coach to participate in Moody Park. I think Mark Smith (Moddy Park League director) does an excellent job up there. The kids enjoy playing at Moody Park. That’s been a tradition as far back as when I was keeping score at 8-9 years old and Emil Wandishin was running the league.” A Ewing lifer, Dearden doesn’t anticipate going too far anytime soon, though her and John’s sons are now 27, 25 and 22 years old, and Dearden and he would like to visit their grandson in Georgia more. “I’m a people person,” Dearden said. “No matter what it is, I enjoy helping people. I might do some volunteer work. I might get into Special Olympics. There are other things I enjoy doing besides coaching. I haven’t found anything quite yet. I’ll find something. “I enjoy reading, helping people. I’m sure I’ll volunteer somewhere or maybe get a part-time job to stay involved somewhere in the community. I might babysit my grandson.” Family remains immensely important to Dearden. For 32 of her 34 years of teaching and coaching, her extended family included Ewing High School and that’s tough to step away from after so long. “I have been getting up every day and going to school every day for a very

long time,” Dearden said. “It’s definitely going to be strange the first day I don’t have to get up. I’ll probably get up and get ready and then say, ‘Oh, shoot, I don’t have to go to work.’” She sid that she’ss especially miss the students of Ewing High School. “They’ve been awesome and great and hopefully I did them justice and helped them out as best I could. I talk to a lot of people here in school. I’ll miss my colleagues too, all the friends I’ve made along the way.”

UDC continued from Page 1 extremely efficient PHOLED components that help make science fictional devices like rollable screens possible. Hack said consumers will likely be surprised with the radical smart phone designs that will be hitting the market over the next few years, and the speed with which they are released. Already, companies have built prototype devices that hint of a rollable future. At an industry convention last year, electronics maker LG showed off a prototype TV that rolled up into a box, similar to a projector screen but with no projector, which it plans to launch as a consumer product. Samsung’s Infinity Flex display announced in November is the first of these commercial foldable devices. The display allows the tablet to fold into the shape of the smart phone with no crease in the screen. Huawei and Lenovo are also planning foldable phones. As with most first-generation consumer electronics, Samsung’s model is priced out of reach of most smartphone buyers: the Galaxy Fold costs nearly $2,000. Hack noted that the consumer product cycle usually follows this pattern, with MP3 players and DVD players starting off as expensive luxuries only to become commonplace as manufacturing ramped up. It’s a revolution long dreamed of by Hack and others at UDC. Hack grew up in England, where his father was an engineer. He graduated from Cambridge with a doctorate and later worked for Xerox, where he worked on flat panel display technology. Rollable screens is a longtime

The Royole Flexipai is one of the world’s first foldable phones. It’s made possible by technology pioneered at Universal Display Corporation in Ewing. goal of the company. Universal Display contributes to the foldable screen market in two ways: First, it owns patents on technologies related to phosphorescent organic LED displays and secondly, it manufactures the materials used in this type of display and sells them to companies that make screens. (Most

of the world’s screen manufacturers use UDC technology, mostly in smartphones.) Phosphorescent LEDs, based on discoveries made by Princeton University researchers in the 1990s, are extremely efficient compared to their conventional counterparts. Where a regular organic LED turns about 25 percent of the energy

put into it into light, with the rest being heat, a phosphorescent LED is near 100 percent light. Currently, PHOLED displays are made with red, blue and green diodes: UDC makes phosphorescent red and green diodes, but they don’t yet manufacture blue ones, so these are made with traditional OLED materials using technology developed by Kodak. PHOLED screens can be much thinner and brighter than conventional displays. Darice Liu, director of investor relations and corporate communications for UDC, says that in 2013 Samsung, which was just using PHOLED red diodes, switched over to green ones, their devices saw a 25 percent increase in battery life. UDC is currently developing blue diodes, and Liu says that when they come out, manufacturers who adopt them can expect a further 25 percent gain in battery life. PHOLEDs are part of a suite of technologies that have made foldable screens possible. Making an entire rollable phone will require every single component of the phone to be flexible: from screens, to the battery, to the circuitry. Take, for instance, the surface of the phone itself. Until now, screens have been covered by high strength glass because it is highly transparent and does not scratch when abused by the user. They also used glass as a backing material. A phone surface that gets scratched and cloudy would be worse than the downside of glass, which is its vulnerability to being shattered. Hack says that recent advances in plastic technology and scratchproof coatings have allowed plastic screens to

perform well enough to be used in commercial products. Another major hurdle to flexible plastic is preventing it from creasing. Now, the glass backing has been largely replaced by plastics, and plastic covers will make phones more durable in addition to allowing them to be built in new forms. “Plastic on plastic is essentially unbreakable,” Liu says. “A lot of new applications can materialize if you remove the rigidity of glass.” Other companies are experimenting with extremely thin flexible glass, which potentially could be used instead. It’s not just smartphones that could be revolutionized by rollable technology. Tablets, traditional computers and as-yet unimagined categories of device could be completely reimagined or invented. The flexible trend actually started out four years ago with the introduction of curved edges on smartphones, along with curved screen televisions. Organic LEDs were key to these devices. Since they are inherently flexible, the tiny diodes can be mounted on a wide variety of surfaces. All of this could be leading up to a device that UDC has long held up as a kind of holy grail of communications technology: a “universal communication device” that would look like a pen but have a full-color display that rolls out for use. Right now the communicator only exists in concept art and in a few extremely rough prototypes at UDC headquarters on Graphics Drive in Ewing. But Hack says it gets closer to reality every day. Currently there are about 1.6 billion smartphones in the world, with 400 million using UDC’s OLED technology. The next frontier for UDC is televisions, as currently less than 1 percent of them are made with OLEDs. UDC is not all about screens however. The company is also developing PHOLED lighting which can be created in strips and applied to any surface. So far, this technology has caught on the quickest in the automotive world, with luxury automakers BMW,

Mercedes and Audi beginning to use OLED tail lights in some of their cars. The light weight and low power consumption of OLEDs make them appealing, and Hack says designers are experimenting with using them on the interior surfaces of cars as well. Currently, UDC is focused on two major research projects: the first is creating blue PHOLED emitters, which would enable all-PHOLED devices. The second is a manufacturing technique that would allow emitters to be printed on surfaces like an inkjet printer. This would drive down the cost of PHOLED screens, making OLED TV screens cheaper and more practical. “By some estimates there will be 10 million OLED TV sets by 20201. We believe the market will have grown to 200 million plus units by then,” Liu says. The Route 1 corridor has a tradition of pioneering television technology. Color television was invented at Sarnoff Labs, which also created the world’s first liquid crystal flat screen displays. UDC’s core technology was developed at Princeton University, and Hack says he’s proud of his company’s deep ties to the region and the university. Liu says people in the industry are a bit sick of hearing references to “Minority Report,” the 2002 sci-fi movie that showed a near future world with advanced computer technology everywhere. But nevertheless, she says we may soon see screens on transparent surfaces, as in “Minority Report,” as well as screens built into mirrors, or in heads-up displays for cars. While the initial foldable phones are niche products for “early adopters” and tech junkies, and will probably be manufactured in very small quantities, Liu predicts they will be adopted quickly as consumers see the value in having a twoin-one product. Future foldable phones will likely be cheaper and have any initial bugs worked out. “I carry a smartphone, a tablet and a laptop with me when I go on business trips,” Liu says. “If I could only carry two of those, that’s great.”

Now, the glass backing has been largely replaced by plastics, and plastic covers will make phones more durable.

POLICE continued from Page 1 February. The other two, for the record, are Joseph Toth and Alexandra Brice. The Arnolds are Ewing High School grads in their 20s who decided law enforcement was the way to go. The official assessment from Stemler is that the Arnolds are fitting in well in their first couple months in Ewing’s patrol division, following a pretty neck-and-neck time at the academy. Chelsea finished at the top of the class academically, he said, and Stephen got a perfect score as a shooter. Each finished close to the other in those categories. Colloquially, Stemler had this to say: “They’re both pretty driven.” Driven, of course, is a code word for being competitive siblings who are close in age. Ask Chelsea if she—who’s 26 and, by 13 months, the younger of the two—if she and her brother are competitive with each other and you will get a knowing chuckle and an “oh yeah.” Being the only two children to their parents, the Arnolds’ sibling rivalry started out in the usual manner. “Because we were so close, we used to fight all the time,” Chelsea said. “Everything he did, I wanted to do. One day that [fighting] changed and we became very close. Now if I can’t have it, I want him to have it.” Stephen is perhaps best described as the (literal) strong, silent type. He did not respond to several requests for an interview, but based on information from his his Facebook page, he graduated from Ewing High in 2010, studied

Four officers recently graduated the academy and joined the Ewing Police Department, including the Arnold siblings. Pictured are Alexandria Brice, Stephen Arnold, Joseph Toth and Chelsea Arnold. at Mercer County Community College, and is a powerlifter. Both siblings were three-letter athletes in high school, Stemler said. Chelsea played softball and soccer at MCCC, and said she still plays both sports, in coed rec leagues. Both she and her brother have always been active

and always into sports and fitness in general. Chelsea said it was her brother who had always wanted to be a police officer. She, wanting to always do what he did, found it an increasingly appealing option. She didn’t start out that way, though. When she started college at MCCC, she was a liberal arts major who knew only that she was good at math, like her accountant mother. While her brother went through Mercer’s criminal justice program, she had a lot of debates with herself about what she might do with her life. Eventually, she asked herself an important question. “I thought, should I just do something I’m good at or should I do something I really want to do?” she said. Given how much her brother was enjoying his studies, Chelsea decided she wanted to enter law enforcement as well, and switched her major to criminal justice. She then transferred to the College of New Jersey to complete her degree, and she followed her brother’s pre-police job path and went into corrections. In 2014, she said, Stephen “got into corrections and loved it. He convinced me it was for me.” But while he was with Mercer County Corrections, she entered the state Department of Corrections in 2016. How she felt about the job once she got there was… complicated. “I loved being in corrections,” she said. “But watching people in prison, I felt like I was trapped sometimes.” When Stephen said he was going to take the civil service test to be a police officer, Chelsea tagged along. Both, she said, did not consider working in anyplace other than their home town. “I love Ewing,” she said. “I bought a house in Ewing, so I thought why not be a cop where I’m going to live?” Both siblings officially became Ewing

police officers on Feb. 2. So far, Chelsea is finding it both “great” and “overwhelming.” It’s great because she’s really enjoying it—mainly the fact that as a police officer, you don’t really ever have the same day twice. That’s actually what makes the job a little overwhelming, too, she said. There’s a lot to learn, and doing “a little bit of everything” every day makes it hard to nail down a routine. “It’s everything from missing persons to domestic calls,” she said. But she does so far love the choice she made. Being on patrol means she can be proactive in her efforts to help the community, like stopping a suspicious driver or a speeder, rather than just waiting for a call to react to, or getting out and talking to people. And the variety makes the days go quickly. “I used to work eight hours,” she said of her job in corrections. Many of those days absolutely felt like a full eight hours. Now she works up to 12 hours in a shift and said those days often feel like a lot less. Being on the job for only a couple months, Chelsea said she’s not had any life-altering or life-affirming moments of wisdom borne of the job just yet. She does know she’s worried about her brother being safe—“not that he can’t handle himself”—and that her mother is now a full-time worrier over both her children. Chelsea and Stephen do not work the same shift, ever. The reasons are what you would think, according to Chief Stemler— no reason to risk two siblings in a potentially dangerous situation, for one thing; no need to have family connections “cloud judgment” on the job for another, he said. “So we keep them separate.” That may safeguard one sibling at a time, but Chelsea said her parents had already worried about Stephen wanting to be a cop and then that intensified when she decided to follow suit. She said her mother admitted to being worried around the clock now, as one of her children is almost always on duty. Parental jitters aside, Chelsea said her parents are quite proud of both of them, which helps to know while she’s out on patrol. She doesn’t have any plans yet as far as advancing up the chain of command because she’s really enjoying where she is right now, but she’s not ruling anything out. She’s more certain that she’s staying in Ewing, though. She has no plans to look for another department. It’s her home and this is her way of serving her community. She said she is comfortable with Ewing and obviously familiar with the township, though she’s been surprised by something she didn’t know until she was on the law enforcement side of it. “I never realized how much people call the police in Ewing,” she said. Not necessarily for bad reasons, or at least not for dire reasons. But the volume of calls to the department did surprise her. “I didn’t know how much the police were needed or what they actually do,” she said. But she does know she likes being part of the solution to whatever the residents need.

Getting Healthy is a Walk in the Park The Health Benefits of Walking According to the National Institutes for Health, just 2.5 hours of moderate aerobic activity per week will help most adults stay healthy. For many, deciding on a fitness program and finding the time to exercise can stop the most well-meaning person in their tracks. Luckily, getting on the path to better health can literally be as easy as a walk in the park. “Walking has a low risk of injury and you don’t need any memberships, special equipment or training to get started,” said DR. JILL YOUNG, a board certified physician at Capital Health Primary Care – Quakerbridge. “Most people don’t need to see a doctor before they begin a walking program, but if you have a chronic health issue or you’re over age 40 and have been inactive for a while, check with your primary care doctor to establish a fitness routine that’s safe for you.” In addition to seeing patients at Capital Health’s primary care office in Lawrenceville, NJ, Dr. Young is a trustee of the 22-mile Lawrence Hopewell Trail, a non-profit that provides communities in Hopewell and Lawrence Townships a safe environment for walking, jogging, and biking.

A brisk walk 30 minutes a day, five days a week will help you burn calories, strengthen your muscles and bones, and can lower your risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and type 2 diabetes. If you have a tight schedule to work around, Dr. Young suggests breaking your walks into three 10-minute sessions per day to enjoy the same benefits, all of which improve your overall fitness and lift your mood along the way. Whether it’s scheduling a wellness check-up or you’re just not feeling well, Capital Health understands that advanced medicine starts with your primary care doctor. If you don’t already have a primary care provider, Capital Health’s Primary Care Network offers convenient offices throughout the greater Mercer, Bucks and Burlington county region.

DON’T LOSE SLEEP OVER DAYLIGHT SAVINGS BASIC TIPS FOR A BETTER NIGHT’S SLEEP Daylight savings time may be a welcome sign of spring and the long summer nights to come, but the “lost hour” can have short-term effects on your normal sleeping patterns. “When you ‘spring forward’ and advance your clocks an hour, the change disrupts your sleep pattern and causes your body clock to become out of sync with the daylightnighttime cycle,” said DR. CALLUM DUPRE, board certified neurologist, fellowship trained sleep medicine specialist, and medical director of the Capital Health Center for Sleep Medicine. “If you’re a night owl, the switch to daylight savings time could have a more noticeable impact.” Your best defense against the disruption caused by the time change is maintaining a consistent sleep routine. Instead of altering your schedule to compensate for the hour of sleep you lose, select a bedtime ritual, such as a warm bath, listening to calm music or reading a book. After you make it through the time change, sticking to a routine year round

OTHER TIPS INCLUDE:

… Create a relaxing bedroom. ∙∙ Remove work materials, computers and televisions. ∙∙ Keep it quiet, dark and cool. … Reduce or eliminate caffeine, nicotine and alcohol intake. … If you can't sleep, try relaxing in another room until you feel tired. … Exercise regularly but not close to bedtime.

will go a long way in improving your quality of sleep and reducing your risk of illness and chronic health problems. If you or your family is having sleep-related problems, contact the Capital Health Center for Sleep Medicine. As the largest, fully accredited center in Mercer and Bucks counties, the Center has provided comprehensive evaluation and treatment for sleep disorders in adults and children for more than 20 years.

On December 19, President & CEO Al Maghazehe and other members of Capital Health’s senior management team joined the CAPITAL HEALTH AUXILIARY for a ribbon-cutting ceremony (pictured right) that marked the grand opening of Capital Thrift, the Auxiliary’s new thrift store located at 2783 Brunswick Pike (Rt. 1 South), Lawrenceville, NJ. The Mercer Mart thrift store, which celebrated its grand opening in 1958, (pictured left) opened on West Hanover Street in Trenton before moving to Front Street until it closed in 2004. Like the Mercer Mart, Capital Thrift is completely staffed and managed by volunteers, and proceeds help the Auxiliary sponsor health and educational programs for patients at Capital Health.

Volunteer Spirit is alive and well at CAPITAL THRIFT In December 2018, the Capital Health Auxiliary celebrated the grand opening of Capital Thrift, a thrift shop in Lawrenceville, NJ that benefits health and educational programs at Capital Health. Although the store is new, the community spirit that drives this effort can trace its roots back to 1958 and an enterprise known as Mercer Mart, Capital Health’s original thrift shop. “Mercer Mart was a mainstay in the city of Trenton for 46 years until its closing in 2004,” said Donna Costanzo, president of the Capital Health Auxiliary. “Inspired by the dedication of the original founders and volunteers at the Mart—many of whom helped run the store from start to finish—we look forward to improving the community and continuing to support the many great programs at Capital Health.” Capital Thrift is located at 2783 Brunswick Pike (Rt. 1 South) in Lawrenceville, NJ. Store hours are 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday; 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. on the first and third Sunday of each month; and 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. on the first Monday of each month. Purchases may be made with cash or credit card (Visa & Master Cards only—no debit cards). Donations may be dropped off during store hours.

Advanced Screening and Early Treatment helps prevent esophageal cancer Heartburn and acid reflux are common conditions, but if you’re experiencing chronic symptoms, you may have gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Left untreated, GERD can cause damage to the lining of the esophagus and lead to Barrett’s esophagus, a precancerous condition that is estimated to affect more than 12 million adults in the United States. In a more severe form of Barrett’s, the lining of the esophagus also contains dysplasia (cells that are turning into cancer). “Barrett’s esophagus commonly goes undiagnosed and can lead to esophageal cancer, making it a potentially life-threatening condition of the digestive system,” said DR. JASON ROGART, director of Interventional Gastroenterology & Therapeutic Endoscopy at Capital Health. “With the advanced screening options available at our Center for Digestive Health, we work to identify Barrett’s in its earliest stages. Our goal is to identify disease progression early, when it can be treated endoscopically, without the need for surgery.” Dr. Rogart leads the Barrett’s esophagus and GERD Program at the Capital Health Center for Digestive Health, which offers these advanced screening, diagnostic and treatment options: High-definition endoscopy with narrow band imaging: Detailed imaging further enhanced by a special filter that focuses light to specific wavelengths for greater image contrast and clarity. Video Laser Endomicroscopy (VLE): High-resolution, crosssectional imaging of the outermost lining of the esophagus. Studies show this to have greater than 98 percent accuracy in detecting Barrett’s. Our experienced team at Capital Health was the first in New Jersey to offer VLE. WATS3D (wide-area transepithelial sampling with 3D computer analysis): A brush biopsy technique that can detect Barrett’s and increase the detection of cells that are turning into cancer. Molecular/DNA analysis of Barrett’s esophagus: Tissue samples collected via endoscopy are tested for the presence of biomarkers that may indicate a higher risk of progression to cancer before the development of invasive tumors. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS): Special scopes with small ultrasound probes at the tip are inserted into the esophagus to examine nodules that may arise within Barrett’s esophagus. If the nodules contain cancer or if there are abnormal lymph nodes outside the esophagus, they can be sampled under EUS-guidance with fine needle aspiration. Bravo™ pH probe: Via endoscopy, a small capsule is temporarily attached to the wall of the esophagus to measure pH levels, record GERD symptoms, and transmit readings to a small wireless receiver you wear on your waistband.

24 hour pH testing with impedance and esophageal manometry: A thin catheter is passed through the nose into the esophagus to measure whether acid or non-acid contents from the stomach are refluxing into the esophgaus. The pattern of muscle contraction within the esophagus can also be checked for abnormalities. Stretta anti-reflux endoscopic therapy: An endoscopic alternative to medical or surgical treatment of GERD, this is a safe and effective minimally invasive endoscopic procedure that is typically performed in less than 60 minutes on an outpatient (same-day) basis. It has been shown to significantly reduce and even eliminate GERD symptoms, such as heartburn, by reducing esophageal acid exposure. Our experienced team at Capital Health was the first in New Jersey to offer Stretta. Capital Health Center for Digestive Health is advancing the level of care available to patients in the region by providing comprehensive, state-of-the art diagnostics and treatments for a wide range of medical conditions involving the entire digestive system, all in one location at Capital Health Medical Center – Hopewell.

Forum to focus on student mental health and wellness

Overparenting, the college ‘arms race’ will be the be focus of April 24 event By Kevin Kunzmann

As recently as 2016, Mercer County was among the three New Jersey counties with the greatest rate of suicide attempts and self-inflicted injuries among people aged 10 to 24 years old, according to the state Suicide Report from the Department of Children and Family. In just under a two-year span from early 2016 to later 2017, seven suicides were confirmed to be teenagers that either lived or attended school in the county. These troubling numbers—just as much as the stories behind them—drove school district administrators in Mercer County to action. More specifically, they

created a novel call to action. Legislation was proposed and passed last year that connected 10 Mercer County school district superintendents to a Call to Action to prevent youth suicides. Since then, the conglomerate has hosted a series of events: a presentation at Rider University intended to kick off a countywide focus on student mental health last January, a discussion on support at the College of New Jersey last May, and now, an effort to learn how to apply best practices through a program next month. On April 24, the call-to-action team, in collaboration with the Traumatic Loss Coalition, will host a free presentation by former Stanford University dean and author Julie Lythcott-Haims at Robbinsville High School. Lythcott-Haims, a once-featured speaker in a TED Talk presentation, is the author of the best-selling parenting book, How to Raise an Adult:

Break Free of the Overparenting Trap and Prepare Your Kid for Success. Robbinsville School District superintendent Kathie Foster said that LythcottHaims’ work highlights proven strategies for fostering children’s resiliency, selfdirection, and emotional well-being. “She also highlights how to navigate the “college arms-race” and having families create their own definition of success,” Foster said in a statement. In her presentation and Q&A session, Lythcott-Haims is expected to talk about practices to properly navigate common teenage student stressors such as the “college arms-race” and the burdens of academic success. Having a keen awareness of these issues is something officials in the Ewing Public School have been focusing on in recent years. Superintendent Michael Nitti earlier this year presented the school board

Board with an update on district’s initiatives to promote emotionally and psychologically healthy students. He said that since September 2017, the district’s Post-Secondary Task Force has focused on the social-emotional wellness of Ewing’s students. A group of stakeholders with relevance and expertise have met to talk about issues impacting student’s mental health. The task force has read scholarly and media articles devoted to the topic, and had presentations from staff members on related topics. Focus has included the impact of educational practices on student anxiety and stress and an examination of programs that the district offers that promote emotionally healthy children. From this group’s efforts, a number of positive events and experiences have evolved. Nitti said that perhaps most noteworthy, Ewing is a leader in the county-wide initiative focused on teen sui-

mandates, our main focus is always our mission, a nd the most important part of that mission is helping develop resilient, mentally-healthy young adults,” Nitti said. “We know kids have suffered in the past, whether it was embarrassment or pain, or something else, but nothing was reported to us.”” said Hopewell Valley School District Superintendent Thomas Smith, who grew up in Ewing as close friends with Nitti, and continues to work with him closely on this initiative. Early on—when statistics were at their most troubling and upsetting stories of students trying and failing to cope were coming to light—the Call to Action was getting mixed reactions. Smith recalls people suggesting that more problems could possibly come from their efforts to raise awareness. As these presentations have continued, he’s learned it’s the opposite: people suffering in silence are now welcoming their support. “This is all about raising healthier students, in healthier schools,” he said.

cide prevention and adolescent wellness. During his presentation, Nitti touched on a variety of educational practices and professional development efforts to promote healthy children and reduce anxiety and stress. These included classroom programs like Mindfulness, Yoga for Classroom, Yoga for Adolescents, Sheltered Instruction Practice for ELLs, Traumatic Sensitive Discipline and Executive Functioning, as well as various professional development workshops. The district has also increased its Opioid Awareness training through seminars, its partnership with the ASSYST Program, and by bringing in the Mercer County Prosecutors to speak to students. Nitti also said that the district has added new staff to address student wellness issues, including new guidance counselors at Antheil and Ewing High School, a new dean of students at the O’Brien Academy and new school security coordinators at EHS and Antheil. “While we always have to navigate

FOOD & DINING

Soul food meets teriyaki at J&C By Joe Emanski One day recently a colleague, Dan Aubrey, brought me a menu from a place from which he had just picked up lunch: J&C Teriyaki in Ewing. I only had to look at the menu for a minute to know that it was someplace I wanted to try. J&C Teriyaki is a tiny take-out shop in a tiny, seven-shop strip mall on Parkside Avenue, just off South Olden Avenue. The Chinese-owned restaurant, opened by John Yang in 2010, has an unusual menu: a mix of Southern-style soul food and Japanese teppanyaki. The first thing you see when you walk in is a huge stack of Member’s Mark creamy liquid shortening. It’s not the kind of place that worries about atmosphere. Nor are there any tables. J&C Teriyaki is take-out only, as is its sister restaurant, J&C Fish Market and Soul Food, which has been down the street from Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton for almost 20 years. The majority of the menu at both restaurants is soul food. There’s seafood like fried fish (croaker, whiting, porgy, catfish, flounder, ling cod and tilapia), steamed and fried shrimp, grilled salmon, scallops, clam strips and crab sticks.

There’s also fried chicken, baked chicken and chicken gizzards, pork chops fried or with gravy, stewed chicken, stewed beef, short ribs and oxtails (BBQ or smothered in gravy), and BBQ ribs. Sides are familiar to devotees of soul food: collard greens, black-

eyed peas, macaroni and cheese, string beans, candied yam, cabbage, lima beans and buttered corn. Most items can be ordered as sandwiches (regular or large), regular platter (with french fries and cole slaw) or dinner platter (includes two sides and a hunk of corn bread). Sandwiches range in price from $4.70 to $7.55. Regular platters range from $4.85 for fried chicken leg and thigh to $10.85 for short ribs and oxtail. The most expensive thing on the entire menu, excluding catering options, is $12.95 for the oxtail and short rib dinner platters. At J&C Teriyaki, but not J&C Fish Market, you can also choose from among 14 hibachi options: chicken, squid, white fish, shrimp, tilapia, salmon, plus combinations of the above. Although there’s no showmanship in the presentation a la hibachi restaurants, the kitchen at J&C is open and you can watch your food being made. Teppanyaki comes with steamed or hibachi rice and vegetables, and range in price from $6.55 for chicken to $11.45 for steak and shrimp $13.45 for a 12 ounce portion of steak. Desserts are also available include banana pudding, sweet potato pie, peach cobber, carrot

cake and cheesecake. I stopped into J&C Teriyaki one day last month to give some of their most popular dishes a try. I ordered a fried chicken mix (drumstick, thigh, wing, breast) with fries ($6.15) as well as hibachi chicken. I also got sides of collards and black-eyed peas ($2.45 small, $3.75 large). I rarely order fried chicken. Well prepared, it is one of the most delicious things in the world, but it is all too easy to get wrong. I’ve had my share of underdone, overdone, overbreaded, underseasoned and greasy chicken where the breading slides right off, leaving behind a defenseless breast or thigh. It begins to degrade the minute it comes out of the fryer, and too many times I have been served chicken that clearly had past its prime. None of that was an issue at J&C. The chicken was fried just right, without a hint of uncooked flour and reasonably oily. The crispy, salty batter lacks any cayenne zing but is good, and the seasoning carried into the chicken nicely. The meaty breast, so often dry and stringy, was juicy and delicious; the slightly dry leg pieces were also good, and the wing very good.

ture. Vaughan preferred the catfish to the whiting. Though there was a hint of fishy smell on both, the flavor was quite mild and indistinct. The short ribs were perhaps the home run of the entire smörgåsbord. They tasted the way I want them to come out when I make them, well stewed and tender, with a heavy, clingy gravy. The macaroni and cheese was good, made with real cheese and not a processed cheese sauce, and the plentiful candied yams were like pie filling. Although I did not order it, Vaughan also put in a good word for J&C’s banana pudding, which he has had. He says the thinly sliced bananas and vanilla wafers on a vanilla-flavored pudding are tasty. The bottom line is that both J&C’s offer tremendous value for money. What the food lacks in spectacle, it makes up for by being plentiful and filling. If soul food is what you’re in the mood for, it’s worth going out of the way to pick something up. And if you can’t make it to your favorite hibachi place, J&C Teriyaki might be the best way to scratch that itch.

The sides were also good. Colleague Vaughan Burton, who grew up in the South, says the porky collards compare favorably to the food he grew up with, and says the black-eyed peas were outstanding as well, though they could have had more meat flavor (like his mom’s). French fries were garden variety fries, filling but not noteworthy. The cole slaw is sweet enough to be considered a dessert. The teppanyaki chicken, prepared on a flat-top grill rather than a hibachi, was also good, and particularly, good value for the money. Big strips of slightly sweet, teriyaki-flavored chicken came over white rice, accompanied by unseasoned sauteed vegetables including zucchini, broccoli and bok choy. The container weighed in at just over 2 pounds. The next day I stopped in to J&C Fish Market and Soul Food to sample a few more of the entrees. I ordered the fried whiting and catfish dinner combo with sides of candied yam and macaroni and cheese, ($10.10), as well as a regular platter of short ribs and gravy with fries ($10.85). The fish came in decent-sized fillets, breaded in salty corn meal. We would have liked to see the fish a deeper golden brown, with a crunchier tex-

Several studies have found that early-onset drinking is linked to the risk of greater substance abuse problems later in life. The earlier a child begins to drink alcohol, the greater the problems he or she will face in adulthood, not only with substance abuse but with meeting important life goals such as education and careers. Therefore, it is important for parents and for society to do everything possible to prevent the initiation of childhood drinking. Laws and policies will only work so far, the real work begins in the home within the family. Parents are the single most important influence on their children’s decision to become involved in substance abuse or not. Studies show that parents who drink or express favorable attitudes about drinking are linked to their children

initiating alcohol consumption and continuing to drink. On the other hand, children who are warned about the dangers of alcohol by their parents are less likely to start drinking underage. The same is true for children who report being close to their parents. A lack of parental communication, support and monitoring have been linked by researchers to the frequency of drinking, heavy drinking, and drunkenness among adolescents. Studies have also linked parental hostility, rejection and harsh, inconsistent discipline to childhood drinking and alcoholrelated problems. Parents can help their children avoid alcohol problems by: -Talking about the dangers of drinking -Drinking responsibly, if they choose to drink -Serving as positive role models in general -Not making alcohol available -Getting to know their children’s friends -Having regular conversations about life in general -Connecting with other parents about sending clear messages about the importance of not drinking alcohol -Supervising all parties to make sure there is no alcohol -Encouraging kids to participate in healthy and fun activities that do not involve alcohol Research shows that children whose parents are actively involved in their lives are less likely to drink alcohol. Be a parent, not a pal. This message brought to you by the Prevention Coalition of Mercer County and Mercer Council. For more information, go to mercercouncil.org

Adopt-a-Survivor Program Teacher of the Year Recipients are Honored Antheil Literary Festival Begins at Ewing High School Nearly sixty years since Allied forces liberated the Nazi concentration camps, the now elderly survivors of the Holocaust are turning to a new generation to preserve their testimony about their wartime experiences for future generations. Holocaust survivors are steadily dwindling in number. Many have made it their mission to educate the world that anti-Semitism and racism easily lead to murder, and to speak about the horrors they and their families suffered. With the passing of time, it has become urgent to find a new generation to continue the survivors’ mission and tell their stories after the survivors can no longer do so.

EHS Student Blazes His Trail at “We Make” in Pennington Adonis Lozano, a senior student in the Structured Learning Community (SLC) Program at Ewing High School, is participating in a community experience that is changing his life. Adonis attends a daily internship at We Make in Pennington, New Jersey with his job coach, Dawn Stokes. Here he gains valuable work and communication skills in a real-life setting, which will better prepare him to work in his community after graduation. “The Structured Learning Community Program was developed to support kids like Adonis who would not otherwise have had the opportunity to hone his skills in an authentic setting in the community,” said SLC coordinator Danielle Hickey. “Adonis and other students in the program have been afforded the chance to take their classroom lessons and put them into practice throughout various job settings in the community, allowing them to build their opportunities for employability by the end of their time with us at Ewing High School.”

The types of jobs that Adonis has learned include various types of packaging, preparing pallets for shipment, and even the assembly of a solar post cap light that is used in the fencing industry. He builds skills as he masters and learns different aspects of the job site, and works collaboratively in a team setting where the employees promote each other’s success. Program Director of We Make, Muhammad Siddiqu wanted to make a difference for people with autism. So, he, along with Founder, Tony Lesenskyj and Program Manager Andrew Allshouse, developed We Make with the mission “to create and inspire an innovative approach to work for people with autism, with everything from the environment to the processes to the opportunities built first and foremost around their unique needs.” The partnership between We Make and Ewing High School has been developing since last school year, and together Hickey and Siddiqu have looked for ways to include Ewing High School students in the educational employment opportunities at We Make. For more information about We Make, visit their website http://www.wemake.works/.

For five great shows to capacity crowds, Ewing High School’s production of “Legally Blonde” filled the EHS auditorium with song, dance and laughter. The production was directed by EHS staff members Christina Monaco-Caldwell (Artistic), Jessica Bohnenberger (Technical) and Alex Minter (Vocal Director/Conductor). The talented cast featured senior Leah Mickolas in the lead role as Elle Woods and senior Scott Silagy as her suitor, Emmett Forest. Other lead roles were performed by senior Chloe Williams, sophomore Zack Benedetti, senior Cameron Carter, junior Isabel Van Wagner, and sophomore Destiny Weeks. “We are very proud of our outstanding drama and music program, and this production was an excellent showcase of all our talented performers,” Ewing High School Principal Ed Chmiel stated. “The entire cast and crew worked very hard on this excellent show, and we are very appreciative of their efforts.”

FMS Intergenerational Club Fisher Middle School is proud of our Intergenerational Club, where 7th and 8th grade students have the opportunity to “adopt grandparents”, or senior adults from Ewing Independent Living. It’s exciting for our “grandparents” to interact with younger generations, sharing their years of acquired skills and knowledge, and at the same time enjoying the energy, creativity, and vitality of young minds. Our programs vary from educational to recreational, with plenty of meaningful discussions throughout. At the February Valentine’s Day-themed luncheon we worked together to make paper heart decorations. In addition we participated in several other activities including an M&M icebreaker, mad libs, dice games, and a trivia tournament.

The 8th Grade Orchestra performed two pieces then worked with Dr. Joanne Erwin who was the judge at the festival. Dr. Erwin, Professor Emerita of Music Education at Oberlin Conservatory, earned her Bachelor’s (magna cum laude) and Master’s degree in Music Education at University of Illinois. At Oberlin she taught String Methods, String Pedagogy with an outreach project and Conducting. After teaching strings in public schools and Suzuki cello in Illinois and Texas she went on to earn her Ph.D. in String Pedagogy at University of North Texas. The FMS 8th Grade Orchestra musicians were excellent ambassadors of Fisher Middle School and the Ewing Public Schools while performing in front of many other middle school teachers and students throughout the state. There were no scores or rankings, just comments from Dr. Erwin, the judge, on what the orchestra did well and what they could improve upon. Dr. Erwin commended the orchestra on their ability of how well they played together, how attentively they followed the conductor, Ms. Colleen Ferry, FMS Orchestra Director, and their good sense of tempo and rhythm during the performance. Ms. Ferry was very proud of their performance and their behavior. If you have not had the opportunity to hear the FMS 8th Grade Orchestra perform please join us at the Fisher Middle School on Tuesday, May 7th at 7:00PM, you will be truly impressed.

Senior Spotlight: Meet Ryan Webster What do you like best about Ewing High School? My favorite aspects of Ewing High School are the diverse academic, athletic and extra-curricular opportunities that are available. Also, the teachers and counselors are actively engaged with all the students and our futures. Who is your favorite teacher or coach why? My favorite teacher is Mr. Weber because he challenged me academically in my Pre-Calculus Honors class and helped me prepare for Calculus 1. My favorite Coach is Coach Monty because his encouragement and continued guidance helped me improve my running strategies. He is a true coach on and off the field. In which activities do you participate? I am a Varsity Cross Country and Spring Track runner as well as a Varsity swimmer. I am a member of National Honor Society, Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) and actively volunteer at Preferred Care Nursing Home in Ewing, NJ. What is your favorite memory of high school? My favorite memory of high school is having fun at the Six Flags Invitational cross country meet

with my friends and teammates during the fall. We all had a great time at the park afterwards. Who or what has impacted your life in a positive way? I attended two summer camps at Marine Military Academy in Harlingen, TX during 2015 and 2017. It is a military prep-school run by ex-Marine Corps Drill Instructors. Those experiences improved my organizational skills and greatly increased my confidence. How do you define success? Success is trying your best and getting back up after you fail with a plan to improve and knowing when to ask for help. Treating people with respect, being thoughtful in your actions and helping others when they are struggling are also important to being successful in life. What are your plans after you graduate? I plan on studying Computer Science Engineering at either Ole Miss, Auburn or the University of South Carolina. I also aspire to become a Marine Corps or Naval Officer. What is your favorite quote or book? “If you’re not a leader on the bench, don’t call yourself a leader on the field. You’re either a leader everywhere or nowhere.” - Abby Wambach, USA Olympic Soccer Player.

“Being the Change” by Sharing Kindness

At PES second grade students practice “Being the Change” by sharing kindness. What began with the reading of the book, “The Man with the Violin” by Kathy Stinson, ended with twenty-three students having a better understanding of how a little bit of kindness goes a long way. The book is based on the true story of Joshua Bell, the renowned American violinist who graciously took his instrument down into the Washington D.C. subway for a free concert. Parkway second grade teachers, Mrs. Cline and Ms. Porreca created a lesson and project where their students would hear about how someone sharing their kindness brought happiness to another person, and then have the opportunity to replicate the experience for themselves. Each student was given $1 and instructions to give it to someone else in order to help them. Students were then asked to create a poster to explain and display what they did. A notice was sent home to parents explaining the project and how there would be a sharing celebration where every student could report back how they shared kindness.

Student experiences included giving the money to homeless people, donations to a variety of charitable organizations (ASPCA, Leukemia Society, TASK, Ronald McDonald House, ShopRite, Simple Wish) and buying items for family members. During the sharing celebration each student had an opportunity to go to the microphone and speak before their peers. The students in the audience were able to share compliments with their peers after each experience was presented. The compliments were typed up by the teachers and given to each student as a compiled list. At the end of the celebration the students had a snack of juice and personalized heart shaped cookies reminding them that true kindness comes from the heart.

forces me to get my work done. Obviously changing gears sometimes gets a little scrappy because it’s so quick, especially this time for wrestling into softball. Usually I have a little gap because I’m not wrestling in the state tournament.” This year was a unique opportunity when New Jersey became the 12th state to sanction a girls state wrestling championship. Kueny had to fight back to finish third in the South Region tournament to qualify for states. “I think I did okay at regions,” Kueny said. “I think I could have done better in a lot of situations and positions. I’m not disappointed at how I wrestled at regions at all. I ended up getting to states which was the goal. I just ended up taking the scenic route at regions to the podium. If we learned anything, I did the same thing at states so I guess it’s a habit of mine. Kueny lost in the quarterfinals of regions and had to wrestle four matches straight to get back to the podium. “My coach kept saying, four more, four more, and I was thinking of taking it one at a time to get to A.C.” Kueny reached her goals and was able to make her first trip to Atlantic City. The moment she qualified left her in tears. “I think it meant more because if I had lost any of those last four matches, my entire wrestling career would have been over,” she said. “To continue it for another week was the greatest feeling in the world.” Even if she hadn’t made the state championships, the regions gave her plenty of moments. It was her first time seeing a scene like it. “When we were at states, obviously the environment was insane, but the difference was regions was just a gym

itiveness that a lot of the new teams of all girls don’t get to experience. I think wrestling with the guys made me the wrestler I am. I had to wrestle twice as hard against a guy that was going to outmuscle me every time. I had to focus on all my technique because I couldn’t rely on muscle to do the work for me.” To her Blue Devil teammates, she was no different than them. It’s how she was treated over her career and it helped strengthen her. “She’s a wrestler through and through,” Dalessio said. “I don’t look at them at girls and guys, I look at them as wrestlers. She gets it and understands it, and has really worked her butt off to get where she was.” Kueny works hard to excel in everything that she does, and she does a lot. Keeping wrestling it her life over her four years at EHS has meant as much as anything. “I am going to miss the sport,” she said. “This is a sport I love. I’ve put my blood, sweat and tears into the sport. Looking back on it, I’m happy how my career went. I don’t have any regrets when it comes to wrestling. “I think that’s going to continue as I grow older and when I look back 30 years from now and there’s a whole girls tournament and it’s super competitive and guys are freaking out that the girls are good enough to start beating some of the guys, that’s what I hope will come to this sport, and I can look back and say, ‘I was a part of that initial group.’ I don’t think I realize it now, but when I’m older I look back and say that I did that.”

Edward-Chew looking forward to strong spring track season By Justin Feil Dahva’e Edward-Chew turned his initial disappointment of not playing basketball into an opportunity to excel in track and field. The Ewing High School junior this year advanced all the way to the indoor Meet of Champions in the 400 meters individually and anchored the boys 4x400 relay to the Group II state meet. “I think I had a really good winter season,” Edward-Chew said. “It was kind of a change up for me. I used to play basketball. I know working in track this season, it pushed me and seeing the competition that was out there, it helped me.” Edward-Chew heads into the outdoor track and field season this spring with more confidence after a strong finish to the indoor season. On Jan. 26, he ran the 400 meters in 41.88 seconds for fifth place at the Mercer County Championships. Each of the next four times he ran the quarter-mile race, he lowered his time all the way down to a new personal record of 51.53 seconds for 15th place in the statewide MOC. He chalked up his steady development to the competition and adjusting to training through the indoor year. “Coming into this winter season, I knew a few faces,” Edward-Chew said. “Being pushed by them, my coaches were pushing me too, I talked to my brother, and I was getting information

cross country in the fall, tried to get Edward-Chew out for cross country, but he was still preparing as if to play basketball. Edward-Chew is one of the more experienced athletes on the Ewing team. The winter helped him gain more experience. “I wanted to play basketball,” EdwardChew said. “Everybody in my family played basketball. My mom and my dad. I always had a passion for track since I was 8 or 9, so it wasn’t a hard transition to go to track. It was an easy decision. Now I’m in better shape for the spring season now.” Edward-Chew is trying to take the Blue Devils’ younger athletes under his wing to prepare them for the spring season. He can help in a number of areas, and his versatility is one of his biggest strengths. “You’re only limited to so many events,” Montferrat said. “If I could, I’d throw him into six to seven events. He was long jumping this winter too. His best was around 18. He was jumping in relays with Mike Ilesanmi. The 200 is also his thing. He’ll run the 800, long jump, the 100 dash. He’s the ultimate team guy. When I ask him, he’ll say, ‘Where do you want me?’” Edward-Chew has been getting faster in the sprints as he gets older and stronger. He started his career running some 800-meter races and saw his times drop from 2:16 all the way down to 2:06 last year. Since then, Ewing has shifted his attention to the 400 and shorter races. “They transitioned me to a 400 runner,” he said. “I think I can go far in that. Freshman year I ran 53. Last year at states, I split a 50-point. This year, I’m already going 51. My goal is low 49, high 48. The 200 and 800 workouts, they help the 400.” Getting a winter to work out in track has Edward-Chew more excited than usual for the spring track season and beyond. He has higher goals and soaring confidence after a promising first indoor season. “Me and Monty are always talking,” Edward-Chew said. “My main goal for the 400 is to run a 48. I’m focused on track. I don’t need to go back to basketball.”

In our imaginary travels around Ewingville, we have quietly paddled the “river of time” upstream to a point roughly one hundred years ago, to peek at what this rather quaint area was like. The township neighboring the state’s capital city was hardly “sleepy,” but it was surprisingly far more rural than it is today. We find ourselves in the heart of Ewingville, in the first decades of the 20th century, at the crossroads of what is now Pennington and Ewingville roads. Ewingville is relatively populated and busy, with a tavern/hotel/post office, several homes, the remains of a soon-to be-demolished driving track not too far away, and a trolley track along the Pennington-Trenton Highway (Pennington Road). But a short distance from that crossroads is still very rural farmland. Wandering east along Ewingville Road from the intersection at Pennington Road, we head downhill towards the Shabakunk Creek. This road has also historically and fittingly been known as Shabakunk Road. We leave behind the Ewing Hotel, the horse barns for the driving track, and several homes belonging to local residents, 4:39 PM including Abner Hunt, Alf Lanning, and William Cadwallader. At the bottom of the hill we cross the bridge over the Shabakunk Creek. A short distance uphill from the creek is the old red brick Ewingville Schoolhouse, which replaced an earlier wood frame schoolhouse. It served children from nearby farms, in grades one through seven, up until 1914. In Land Along the Shabakunks, author Robert Reeder Green describes

GREENPIA CLEANERS

his recollections of his time in grade school there: “The school building was heated by a pipeless coal fired heater in the basement. Some of the older boys’ job was to stoke the fire from the large coal bin. Cold or rainy days the furnace area was a congested place for the older boys at lunch time. “They would toast their sandwiches on the handle of the long iron poker. Some of the boys trapped muskrats along the creek, and at noon lunch hour they would go in behind the furnace and skin them.” But the old, 19th-century one-room schoolhouses (and muskrat-skinning stations!) were rapidly becoming outmoded. By 1914, a new, four-room schoolhouse, eventually to be called Lanning School, was being constructed on Pennington Road south of the Ewingville crossroads, and would open in the Fall of 1914. However, the Ewingville Schoolhouse remained standing, and in fact still stands in 2019—now a residence, significantly updated and changed, but still maintaining some of the original exterior features. Across the road from the red brick schoolhouse is the Fred Wenzel Farm. Again, author Reeder Green describes his memories of that farm: “I would see Mrs. Wenzel many times on my way to and from the school… She was always busy as farm women mostly were, not only with inside and kitchen work, but out of doors chores, such as carrying firewood, weeding the garden, and feeding the ducks and chickens, of which they had many. “I knew Mr. Wenzel much better, because he was out around the building or in the fields working a team of horses or cutting firewood... He was a rather small, plump man, very erect and very active and spry. His fair complexion, with rosy cheeks, made his white hair and short clipped mustache stand out snow white.” The farm consisted of a one-and-onehalf story frame house, a barn, several outbuildings, “a long pig pen and fenced hog lot, as Mr. Wenzel raised many pigs for market,” an apple orchard, a meadow for cows and horses, and “three or four fair-sized fields on which he raised corn, wheat, hay, etc. Of course, he plowed, cultivated and harvested with teams of horses, as there were no tractors in those days.” Mr. Reeder Green also reminisces about hours spent diving from the Ewingville Road bridge into one of only a few pools in the creek deep enough for diving. A favorite swimming hole, kids would swim and dive there, with an occasional car passing every hour or two. The next time you’re sitting at the light at the end of Federal City Road, try to imagine the area as it was one hundred years ago!

BettInG on BlacK

When being uncool and out of touch sets you free By ilene BlaCK

I’ve recently concluded that I am not cool anymore. Not hip, not “with it,” not rad (my use of those words should be your first clue). Current language, technology, entertainment, fashion all make me feel like I just fell off my dinosaur into a pit of stupid. I came to this jaw-dropping conclusion while watching the Grammys. I quite literally did not know 99.9 percent of the artists who were nominated. Bad Bunny? Childish Gambino? Are these artists or board games? I felt a bit redeemed when I did recognize one artist—Dolly Parton (who is 73 years old.) I used to be up with current technological trends. I had a MySpace account and everything. Granted, I didn’t know how to use it, but I had one. I used to chat via AIM. Then I got Facebook and eventually Instagram, Twitter and Snapchat. Having these accounts, however, does not make you automatically cool. First of all, I have no clue how to post stuff on Snapchat. Not sure what to do with Twitter, either. I do know how to use Facebook and Instagram, though. So maybe I’m 50 percent cool. OK, maybe 25 percent. I texted my son Donnie the other night, asking how to download free music. He immediately called me and said that streaming is the way to go. Streaming. To me, streaming meant what happens when one’s hot water heater springs a leak, or what blood does when one hits one’s head on a cabinet door. I just started using the phrase “bingewatching” with great pride (I do know how to use Netflix). I know what it means when someone is talking about “Birdbox.” I am aware that they are not referring to a way to transport a parrot to the vet. I know that “Twin Peaks” is not a brassiere store. Beauty trends confuse me nowadays. It used to be that foundation, blush, mascara and maybe some eyeshadow on one’s face were enough for one to be considered presentable. But now? Microblading? I figured that microblading meant that someone was skating on really small ice skates. Turns out that microblading is actually a semipermanent tattooing of tiny strokes on the skin under eyebrows, to improve their appearance. Who knew? And the slang these days? It’s cray. That means crazy, for those of you who are less cool than me. (Okay, I googled it). How about “squad goal?” I thought that meant that the whole soccer team took the credit for a goal scored during a game. Wrong. It is actually a type of behavior that a group of friends aspire to. “Your shirt is snatched” does not indicate that the shirt has been stolen. It

means that something is “on fleek.” And “on fleek” means that something is good, nice or great. Yeah. Bet you didn’t know that. (Googled it). I’m all “trill” with the current slang (true+real=trill). Salty. Salty, to me, means, well, something with salt on or in it. No. Not today. “Salty” evidently means that someone is bitter or aggravated. How about “ship?” No, it’s not a water vessel or when you a send package to someone. Shipping is when fans root for two characters in a story to be in a romantic relationship. And here’s another thing. WHY are jeans that have holes in them so popular? If I rip my jeans, that’s the end of them. I’m done wearing them unless it’s to do yard work. But here’s the kicker: there are TWO kinds of ripped jeans. Oh, yes. There are distressed jeans and destroyed jeans. Distressed jeans are where you can see the inside of the material and the white threads and little peeks of skin. Destroyed jeans have gaping holes where you can clearly see skin. Like, you can get sunburn through those holes, that’s how big they are. I don’t understand the attraction. But here’s the good thing about being uncool: it’s freeing. It’s not living up to anyone’s standards but your own. It’s “doing you.” (That’s a current cool phrase.) It’s not caring what trends are, not following the crowd, not conforming. It’s being yourself and being okay with that. On second thought, I’m kinda loving my uncoolness. Yep. I love me just the way I am.
