Among them are a financial planner, a consignment shop owner, a doctor, a baker, real estate broker, travel agents, lawyers, party planners, dentists, and accountants — all professions that benefit from networking with one another. Then she took a look around mercer County to see if there were any large networking groups. Although there are many, none were very big, she thought. Thus, an idea was born: the Congregation Beth Chaim networking group. The Congregation Beth Chaim networking group is meant for all members of the business community. You don’t have to be a member of the synagogue or even Jewish to join. “It’s not a religious group,” Shulman says. “It’s not about promoting religious tenets. We are modeling, through our practices, selflessness, positive attitude, and social relevance, which are Jewish traditions, but we’re not teaching it.” Shulman says the main idea is for the temple to support the community, which will, in turn, be a good place for the members of the temple to live. If there is one thing Shulman is familiar with, it’s supporting the community. Some of Shulman’s earliest memories are of working alongside her mother, when she was three years old, peeling eggs at a local temple where she was a volunteer. “Doing this kind of thing is ingrained in me,” she says. Though Shulman has volunteered for nonprofits all her life, she only recently made it a career. She was formally trained as a teacher, with a graduate degree in CLUB BARKS Dog Daycare, Boarding and Grooming Jersey City, NJ education. For 20 years, she helped run a family durable medical goods business. In that line of work, she learned the value of networking. “Networking always helps,” she says. “You can promote your own business and you can help the community. When your community is stronger, your business is going to be stronger.” The first meeting of the CBC Business Networking Group was this Wednesday, September 25, at 7:30 a.m. at the temple, where mcCarter Theater managing director Tim Shields spoke on business and the arts. On Wednesday, October 16, also at 7:30 a.m., someone from Bachrach men’s Fashions will give a talk entitled “You are what you Wear.” Other meetings in the future will take place in the evening to accommodate different schedules. To apply to join the group, and for more information, go online to www.bethchaim.org. Shulman says each meeting will be about an hour long, with a halfhour speech and unstructured time before and after for networking. members will also have an opportunity to introduce themselves to the group and say what kind of referrals or connections they are looking to make. The speakers will cover a variety of topics of interest to the business community. “We expect this to be a very substantial group,” Shulman says. “There are networking groups in and around mercer County, but nothing really like this one. I think we’re going to pull the best of all the networking group models and try to make it as good and relevant as we can.” The temple itself has deep roots in the community. It was founded 40 years ago, and the rabbi, Eric B. Wisnia, has been in charge for 36 years. Shulman says some of the current members of the congregation have been with it since it was founded. Congregation Beth Chaim is not the first area religious institution to start its own non-religious networking group to help the community. The Princeton United methodist Church hosts a weekly networking breakfast. St. Gregory the Great coordinates a monthly meeting for jobseekers. Shulman hopes the networking group will be another strong tie between the community and the temple. “I really think this could be a very positive thing for the synagogue,” she says.

Confused about where to focus your marketing energy? stone's throw Wills & Estate Planning P P S ...And More, Inc. 609-371-1466 Nevertheless, despite the significant differences among the construction defects, there remained a “strong commonality in the nature of the claimed defect – fire safety hazards in HVAC return systems.” Seeing the forest instead of the trees, the court focused on whether construction of the HVAC cavities met the applicable code rather than on the differences in materials and construction methods used. According to the court, Plaintiff’s satisfied the commonality requirement because even though the improper construction varied from home to home, the effect of that construction remained the same. The court also found that common questions of fact and law predominated over individual differences between the claims. The significance of the common thread i.e. improper return cavity fireblocking, outweighed the relevance of the individual issues of damages i.e. repairs. As a result, class certification was appropriate. Recognizing the economic realities deterring individual claimants from pursuing individual lawsuits or arbitrations, the Appellate Division agreed that the class action device was particularly useful in this case. Efficiency and consistency weighed heavily in favor of class certification, as did fairness to the class members and a lack of prejudice to Hovnanian. This case sets important precedent for individual homeowners, especially those living within planned developments built by the same developer. Members of homeowners’ associations now have a potentially viable option of pursuing litigation as a class to recover for construction defects. Whereas expert fees and litigation costs are nearly insurmountable for individual homeowners, the class structure allows members to share those costs while still seeking full recovery of their damages. While the D’Andrea decision has opened the door for construction defect cases to be brought as class actions, time will tell exactly how large that opening is. For the time being, however, it appears that homeowners, whose homes suffer from a common defect having the same adverse effect, are suitable candidates for class membership in a class action lawsuit.

If you do not purchase coverage, and do not qualify for an exemption, you will be charged a penalty when you file your 2014 federal income tax returns. Next year the penalty for not having creditable coverage will be $95 per adult ($285 per family) or 1 percent of income, whichever is higher. The penalty will increase in future years. Starting in 2016 it will be the greater of $695 per adult ($2,085 per family) or 2.5 percent of income. Will the cost of health insurance be higher in 2014 because of the health reform law? The answer is “it depends.” Premiums for New Jersey have not been made public yet (we will see them by October 1), but my expectation is that they will not change much on average compared to 2013. But the way premiums are calculated will change. For example, the Affordable Care Act will allow higher premiums for smokers (which is not the case in the current New Jersey market), so smokers may pay more. Also, people who were enrolled in low-cost plans that offered limited benefits now will have to move to plans with more comprehensive coverage, which may have higher premiums. In spite of possible increases for some, the subsidies available in the marketplace are likely to make the premiums people of modest means pay much lower than health insurance costs in today’s unsubsidized market. So, it depends on one’s individual circumstances. Wednesday, October 2 Inc.’s Norm Brodsky: Fail Big, Win Big n orm Brodsky is a successful businessman who in 2007 sold his document archive business, CitiStorage, for $110 million. But if you pick up a copy of Inc. magazine, where Brodsky has a popular monthly column, you are more likely to read about his failures than his triumphs. That’s because Brodsky believes failure is a great learning opportunity, if you are mature enough to take advantage of it. CitiStorage was built partly on the lessons Brodsky learned when his first company, Perfect Courier, went belly-up in 1987. “I built it up from zero to 120 million in eight years, and from 120 million to zero in eight months.” he says. “I could have blamed it on the stock market crash, or the advent of the fax machine that came along.” Instead of blaming the defeat on external factors, Brodsky focused on his own decisions, seeing where he went wrong. He realized the company would have weathered the storm had Brodsky not decided to leverage it so heavily. It was a hard lesson learned, but one that proved useful when he re-entered the business world determined not to repeat the same mistakes. “I do write a lot about failure,” he says. “Not so much now, but early on, and if you go outside the SEPTEMBER 25, 2013 U.S. 1 U.S., you find that failure was a Advice Man: Inc. very negative thing, and a lot of magazine columnist people couldn’t come back from it Norm Brodsky speaks and they felt embarrassed.

The name evokes a sure Mediterranean wind bringing clear water and fresh weather to those sailing the sea. Now, Restaurant Mistral offers Chef Scott Anderson the chance to create ever-changing, seasonal offerings that can be adjusted to the prevailing winds of his unsurpassed creativity and taste. Scott Anderson has evolved from the “chef to watch” to the “chef everyone is watching.” Following the critically acclaimed success of elements, co-owners Anderson and Steve Distler bring Princeton another showcase celebration of contemporary cuisine with Mistral. The atmosphere at Mistral is “refined rustic.” A variety of exposed wood surfaces, and even a large sculptural wooden tree signal you that this restaurant is in touch with and cares about the environment. It’s comfortable and casual. If you like the excitement of the open kitchen, you can watch everything going on up close when you sit at the bar ith Catering w Whimsical lighting and natural materials give Mistral a Sonoma vibe.

Later this season, the restaurant is erecting a canopy and outdoor fireplace, giving Princeton a new dining experience that’s private and refreshing. Mistral is BYOB. So maximize your experience by going to the restaurant’s website, www.mistralprinceton.com, and checking out what’s on offer, so you can bring some wines that enhance the taste of your meal. You’ll soon find when you revisit the site that the menu changes often, reflecting the freshness of seasonal markets. The range of the menu is as wide as the world and you’ll have fun noting the culinary influences of the Middle East, Japan, Thailand, the Mediterranean and Latin countries in various dishes. What’s even better for diners is that the offerings are small plates, designed so you can taste a wider assortment of foods in a single visit. The restaurant staff likes to say “the plates are small enough to share,” meaning “add to the fun of your meal by ordering a range of foods to pass and talk about.” Try it all at Mistral!

Rick Jr. then opened a branch of the store as a counter in Risoldi’s Thriftway supermarket at the shopping center at Sloan Avenue and Quakerbridge Road. That helped pave the way for the famous pizza shop to move this past April to the Sloan Avenue building formerly used by a Bob Evans restaurant. The decision to move came slowly, but after a steady decline in costumers, Rick Jr. says in an interview in the Hamilton Post, “We’re one of the few [old] restaurants left in [Trenton]. It used to be like the restaurant capital of New Jersey. Little by little, everyone’s moving out. I held on as long as I could.” The final decision was an ingredient he believes makes a difference to his product. “I had to make sure (the new restaurant) had Trenton water.” Rich Jr., 57, is grooming his son, Michael, to continue the business.

DeLorenzo’s Tomato Pies T he landmark DeLorenzo’s, formerly on 530 Hudson Street, was known for its pies as well as its anachronistic yet iconic cash register, lack of bathrooms (it had predated the code requiring one), its aversion to answering telephones, and the long lines for a booth. While the location has changed, the Zagat New Jersey restaurant review listing says the taste can still be found: “this 66-year-old Trenton-born ‘classic’ (operated by one branch of a famous ’za clan) still attracts legions of fans thanks to its ‘absolutely delicious’ pizza with crust that’s ‘perfectly charred.’ You can still ‘expect long waits’ in the new digs, which are a ‘dressed up’ version of the old, and while it’s BYO, insiders advise ‘birch beer goes best with the pie.’” Gary and Eileen Amico ran the restaurant until January, 2012, when they announced they were retiring and closed the Trenton landmark. Eileen had inherited the restaurant from her father, Chick, and is the cousin of Rick DeLorenzo Sr. Their son, Sam Amico, 42, had already opened a DeLorenzo’s Tomato Pies in Robbinsville in 2007, moving the tradition from outside the city limits and serving patrons who had also moved from the city. The younger Amico lives in Robbinsville with his wife and son.

A note on the restaurant’s website pretty well sums things up. “We had celebrated 66 years in Trenton’s Chambersburg before closing the doors on our Hudson Street location in early 2012. We’re happy to continue the tradition at our unique Robbinsville location just a few miles west of Trenton where it all began.” DeLorenzo’s Tomato Pies, 2350 Route 33, Robbinsville.

The Tomato Pie T he tomato pie “is pretty indigenous to Trenton,” says Sam Amico, 42, who lives with his wife and young son in Robbinsville. “Hot dogs, hamburgers, and pizza get people to travel a long way. In Trenton, there was a tomato pie place on every other corner. (For) a lot of people from North Jersey or New York, maybe the tomato pie isn’t the same pizza they grew up with, but it’s something they’ve become loyal to and support,” says Amico. While all tomato pies — except a “southern” quiche-like concoction — are pizzas (which means pies), not all pizzas are tomato pies. The first distinction is the crust. The tomato pie crust needs to be thin yet able to hold up when it comes out of the oven. Tomato pie SEPTEMBER 25, 2013 Fresh Baked: Rick DeLorenzo Jr. operates DeLorenzo’s Pizza on Sloan Avenue in Hamilton. devotees also like it well done, which means the crust can get a little blackened around the edges. With both pizza and tomato pie, there are four simple elements — the dough, the oil, the cheese, and the sauce. With pizza, the tomato sauce gets ladled on first, followed by shredded mozzarella and toppings. But with tomato pie, after a drizzle of olive oil, the cheese goes on and then the sauce — or, more accurately, the crushed tomatoes. It may sound counterintuitive, but it is the essence of the tomato pie. When the tomato pie comes out of the oven, it sits for a moment and allows diners to admire the aroma and see how beautiful it looks with the sauce and cheese melded together. The crust yields to a sharp knife and produces slices that keeps their shape rather than droop and threaten to spill on a lap. And then there is the first bite with the sauce giving that first tang, a bite that says “this is a tomato pie, not mere pizza.” As devotees will tell you, mere pizza can be good, but tomato pie can be a sublime thing. It is to be enjoyed with friends and family seated around a table that is adorned with a couple of whole pies (tomato pies are generally unavailable by the slice), and where people can be heard mumbling right before the next bite, “Oh, this is such good pie.” But that’s nothing new; people have been saying that over pizza or tomato pie for millennia. U.S. 1 11 Authentic Indian cuisine in a quiet, elegant setting Customized Catering Available A Short History of Pie I n his 2005 book, “Pizza: A Slice of Heaven,” author Ed Levine provides a good outline: Pizza has been around since Roman times in the form of a flatbread with one or more toppings that is baked. For hundreds of years it was enjoyed as a peasant food, eventually landing on menus of trattorias and other eateries as they grew in popularity in the mid-to-late 1800s just as Italy was solidifying into a nation from a collection of separate kingdoms. Naples, a major port city since the Middle Ages, added another contribution to Western civilization at this time when it also became an important place to go for pizza. In his book, Levine says that Antica Pizzeria Port’Alba has been in business there since 1830. Levine recounts the familiar tale of a visit to Naples in 1889 by King Umberto and Queen Margherita of Savoy. According to the legend, the king and queen asked a pizzaiolo (“pie maker” in Italian) to make three pizzas for them at the royal palace. Presented with the three pies, the queen said she liked the one that looked like the flag of Italy with its white mozzarella cheese, red sauce, and green basil leaves. That pie has been known as pizza Margherita ever since and constitutes as close to a defining moment as pizza can ever hope for. That event took place one year after the city of Trenton annexed the adjacent Borough of Chambersburg Township. By then, history was already being made by immigrating Italians who were settling in great numbers where they found jobs in northeastern cities, not least being the new Chambersburg section of Trenton. Among those coming to America as the 19th century gave way to the 20th were those who would turn simple pizza — and Trenton’s tomato pie — into a star of popular food culture in this country. The star makers — the Papa and DeLorenzo families — are connected by trade and backgrounds. Just as Giuseppe Papa, the original DeLorenzos — Pasquale and Maria — came to Trenton from Naples in early 20th century. Their sons learned pizza-making skills in the kitchens of Papa’s restaurant, and then — just as Papa had — opened their own businesses. The DeLorenzo restaurants distinguished themselves by accenting one of the pie-making approaches in their names: the Hamilton Avenue, now Sloan Avenue in Hamilton, shop emphasized pizza (though it sold tomato pies too); the Hudson Street, now Robbinsville, sold only tomato pies.

In 2006 he produced “Pie Eyed,” a 30-minute homage to tomato pies and those who made them. The DVD joins a long list of resources on tomato pie. There is a Facebook page dedicated to the tomato pie, where there was a recent discussion on whether use of the “p-word” should be allowed. A quick search via Google produces a seemingly endless trove of books and websites on pizza and a surprising number on tomato pie. Vince Amico, though, wanted to record the words and experiences of those who were there during the heyday of Trenton tomato pie. A native of North Trenton, he had retired from the healthcare business, having owned the Millhouse nursing home in Trenton, among other endeavors. He started making ice cream and has shops on North Olden Avenue and in Mount Holly, where he lives. “I was in the healthcare business for 12 years,” he says. “When I sold it I just sat around for a year making ice cream and pie. I wanted to make the perfect pie. Then I said to a friend of mine, ‘Let’s make a movie about the people who make Trenton tomato pies because they’re not going to be here forever.’ And sure enough, they’re not.” At the end of his movie, Amico makes a point that is echoed by everyone who still makes tomato pies or eats them. It’s important to have fresh ingredients and the skill to put Pie Makers: Sam and Gary Amico outside DeLorenzo’s Tomato Pies in Robbinsville. Photo: Suzette Lucas them together and create a tomato pie. But the most important thing is the customer. That may seem painfully obvious to anyone who is in business. But with tomato pie, the connection with Chambersburg and the people and places not there anymore is in full play. First, there’s an important question. Is there a “best” Trenton tomato pie? “It’s like rooting for a sports team really,” says Vince Amico. “People get used to a certain pie and that becomes their standard. It really isn’t a function of good or bad. They’re all good pies. Some sauce is different than others. It’s like saying your mother’s sauce is better than others. “My theory is it really comes down to what you are used to with sauce for pasta. Some people like thin sauce, some like thick. They might both be good, but you choose one or the other because that’s what you’re used to. The people who grew up with this all live in the suburbs, but they have the same allegiance. If you get into a discussion on who has the best pie you can get into a shouting match. People get rabid.” Nick Azzaro agrees: “I had a guy who drove from Connecticut. Just to get a pizza. Distances, two or three hundred miles just to get a pizza. More than a steak or a lobster tail, for a pizza they go crazy. I had a guy from Chicago take the train and walk to my place when it was in Trenton just for pizza, and to take a picture.” Tomato pie is one of the few things that is good to eat, and that people identify with a simple way of life that is either going or not there anymore. As Sam Amico says, “if you look around and see the tomato pie places, there’s a tradition. I’m third generation and I went from being a bus boy to owning my own place. You’re not just selling pizza; you’re selling the family recipes. That’s the common denominator. It’s in you; it’s in your blood.” Stone Grill at Pierre’s Stone Grill Stone Grill at Pierre’s & Bar – at Pierre’s – Restaurant – Restaurant & Bar – Restaurant & Bar – Order Ahead A s Vince Amico, Trenton’s own pizza documentarian, tesifies, it’s next to impossible to say that one pizza is better than another.

The total of 150 years is derived by adding Dyson’s approaching 90th birthday to his having been at the Institute for 60 years. The celebration, titled “Dreams of Earth and Sky,” consists of four half-day sessions in the fields of mathematics, physics, astronomy, and public affairs. The lecturers come from the Institute and various institutions in the United States and abroad. The sessions, Dyson says during an interview in his comfortable book-lined office at the Institute, “correspond to what I am doing. There’s a disconnect between my interests and my work. My work is mathematics. My interests are wider than my profession. I’ve been promoting the study of space exploration all my life. It’s a hobby. As a scientist, I am relatively narrow. As a writer, I am relatively broad.” The breadth of Dyson’s interests is reflected in the celebration brochure itself, which features a painting by the multi-talented Institute director, Robbert Dijkgraaf, showing the silhouette of a man, who could be Dyson, standing atop a small globe and staring into the cosmos. “The title of the celebration, ‘Dreams of Earth and Sky’ is mine,” Dyson says. “It’s the name of a book by Russian scientist Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, and I used it as the title for the last chapter in one of my books.” Tsiolkovsky (1857-1935) was a pioneer of space travel. At the beginning of the 20th century he derived the governing equation for rocket-based propulsion. The language of that equation is perfectly clear to mathematicians, though it may be opaque to general readers, as is Dyson’s technical writing. Indeed, Dyson declines to explain in general language what he calls “probably the most important thing I did.” Still, its importance is obvious without the technical details. In 1949, at age 26(!), Dyson published a paper unifying three(!) theories about the behavior of electrical phenomena in terms of quantum theory — those of Richard Feynman, Sin-Itiro Tomonaga, and Julian Schwinger. Dyson considers the differences in the theories to be primarily a matter of style. But he considers their divergence too technical to explain even to a willing interviewer. On the other side, Dyson’s writing for a general audience is a model of lucidity. “I take a lot of trouble about writing,” he says. “I’m always thinking of the reader when I write about human problems. I write as if it was for my sister. She’s a medical social worker, very intelligent, and interested in many things. Writing is just as important as calculating. The secret is to know whom you’re writing for.” The quantity of Dyson’s writings for the general public is formidable. He has for many years provided articles for the New York Review of Books, welcoming the opportunity to express himself at length and to reflect on topics raised by the matter at hand. In addition he has published a number of terse, readable books that demonstrate his broad range of interests, including “Disturbing the Universe” (1979), a portrait gallery of people he has known during his career as a scientist; “Weapons of Hope” (1984), a study of ethical problems of war and peace; “Infinite in All Directions” (1988), a philosophical meditation based on his lectures on natural theology given at the University of Aberdeen in Scotland; “Origins of Life” (1986), a study of one of the major unsolved problems of science; “From Eros to Gaia” (1992), essays and lectures that start with a science-fiction story written by Dyson at the age of nine and end with a mugging in Washington at age 54; and “Imagined Worlds” (1997), based on his Hebrew University in Jerusalem lectures on human destiny, literature, and science. The more recent publications include his collection of book reviews and essays, mostly published in the New York Review of Books, “The Scientist as Rebel” (2006), and “A Many-colored Glass: Reflections on the Place of Life in the Universe” (2007), his 2004 University of Virginia lectures. Curiously, Dyson has not yet tried to explain science to general readers. He says, simply, “I never wrote pop science books.” Dyson was born in England, the son of composer Sir George Dyson and a mother who had a law degree but then worked as a social worker after Freeman was born. As a boy Freeman knew about the work of astronomer Frank Watson Dyson (not a relative) and credited the shared surname with his interest in science. Though he says now that “music has a limited role in my life,” his father’s work as a prominent composer, teacher, and organist took the family to Winchester College, where the young Dyson read mathematical works in French and German and at age 13 taught himself calculus from an Encyclopedia Britannica article. M usic surfaced again in Dyson’s own family. “I had six kids, three of them studied Suzuki violin,” he says. As a Suzuki father, Dyson participated in their lessons. And in his book “The Sun, the Genome, and the Internet,” written when his youngest daughter was 10, Dyson used the analogy of a Mozart duet to help readers understand the coding for protein sequencing in DNA. The Mozart composition calls for two violinists sitting opposite each other and reading from opposite ends of a one-page score placed between them. DNA coding could be read in the same way, Dyson argued. The 1999 book was written to explore the question of whether modern technology could be used to nar- ‘When I act like a heretic I do it more as a citizen than as a scientist. When I get involved in public disputes it’s likely to be about economic things.’ T President of Turkey Friday September 27, 2013 12:00 noon Richardson Auditorium Alexander Hall Princeton University The event is free and open to the public, but tickets are required for entry.

Dyson’s academic ascent began in 1945, when he graduated from the University of Cambridge with a degree in mathematics. In 1947 he went to Cornell to work with physicist Hans Bethe. In 1949 he published his groundbreaking paper on quantum electrodynamics. In 1951 he was appointed professor of physics at Cornell, and in 1953 professor of physics at the Institute for Advanced Study. Two of his children, from his first marriage to mathematician Verena Huber-Dyson, have also become known for explaining science and technology to the general public. Esther is a digital technology consultant. George is a historian of science. With his second wife, Imme, whom Dyson married in 1958, he had four daughters. Dyson never earned a Ph.D., though he has received 23 honorary degrees. “I slipped through the cracks,” he explains, “mostly because I came from England, where the system is not so rigid.” He is opposed to the Ph.D. system for young people today. “It was designed for producing German academics in the 19th century,” he says, “people who would be important and highly respected and pompous. It is not well suited to young people today.” “The problem is that the Ph. D. is the entrance ticket to many professions. But it has disastrous effects. Among Ph.D. candidates I’ve known, one committed suicide, and several ended up in mental institutions. And what can be more disastrous than wasting time? People unsuited for research are forced to pretend. If they’re not suited for research, they shouldn’t be doing it.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2013 can buy them.” “They invited me to publish a second volume of my collected works,” he says, “everything after age 70. So I’ve been mostly writing introductions.” Both editions, published by the American Mathematical Society, open with commentaries on the scientific papers. “The commentaries at the beginning give you a story, which makes the papers readable,” he says. Speaking about another recent activity, Dyson says, “About two years ago I started a new career as a game theorist. It turns out to be more interesting than I expected because biologists imagine that game theory has something to do with evolution.” Dyson’s foray into game theory deals with a game known as “the prisoner’s dilemma.” “Alice and Bob are both involved in a crime,” Dyson explains. “They are picked up by the police and questioned in separate rooms. The dilemma has to do with how they respond to questioning. If one claims to be innocent and says that the accomplice committed the crime, the denier gets a lighter sentence and the betrayed person gets a heavier sentence. If they both refuse to talk, both get lighter sentences. In the short run, it pays to squeal; in the long run, it pays to refuse to talk.” “Bill Press, a friend of mine who is president of the American Asso- Scott L. Kay Highest Price Paid GOLD • DIAMONDS • SILVER ciation for the Advancement of Science, and I worked together on this. He found a new strategy. That’s astonishing because the game has been studied for 50 years. Press had the idea and I worked out the math. I’m only interested in the math. He works numerically; I wrote the equations. The paper made a stir in the biological community. Biologists concerned with the functioning of social groups are interested in this.” “What else have I been doing that’s interesting?” Dyson asks rhetorically. After a pause, he says, “I do a fair amount of propaganda to get rid of nuclear weapons.” Dyson is eager for the next day, Tuesday, to come. “Tuesday is my favorite day of the week,” he says. “The astronomers meet. We have a lecture at 11 and lunch afterwards. There’s always something going on in the sky.” Dreams of Earth and Sky: A Celebration of Freeman Dyson, Institute of Advance Study, Einstein Drive, Princeton, Friday and Saturday, September 27 and 28.

At age 9 he wrote a science fiction story. into practical work and don’t need to spend five or six years preparing.” Dyson is known for advocating minority views. His stand against the dangers of global warming has gained him a reputation as an iconoclast. “When I act like a heretic or rebel I do it more as a citizen than as a scientist,” he says. “When I get involved in public disputes it’s about public policy. It’s likely to be about economic things.” “Global warming is an economic thing. The public is putting huge amounts of money into trying to stop climate change. The question is whether that is hurting the poor and benefiting the rich. Private individuals benefit from advocating a stop to global warming. Furthermore, spending to stop global warming does not consider what best benefits the poor.” When asked if he enjoys being eccentric, he replies, “I don’t like to be eccentric. I only disagree with the majority when there is a serious issue at stake, not just for fun.” Dyson says that he likes it when an interviewer asks what he has been working on lately, and he readily answers. “I never work on big projects,” he says. “I have a lot of little projects.

Next, the method allows clients to apply focused heart based decisions to direct their actions versus just content based decisions. This has made it easier for clients to make difficult decisions particularly during transitions in their lives,” says Lisa and Gail, two corporate professionals who began to explore how to access finding an individual’s life purpose. An important part of the process is remembering the ability to maintain unwavering hope in times of despair and frustration. As the Source Alignment process unfolds, clients discover they do not have to go outside themselves to find fulfillment and experience enhanced degrees of love which will continue to deepen over time. The Source Alignment method is received in a one hour private or group session. The method then integrates throughout the mind, body, and spirit, over a four to thirteen week period. Throughout that time you will begin to remember how unlimited your potential is, you will sense a “knowing” of the true power of your heart to guide your decisions, and you will gain clarity about your life purpose.

Kennedy. It comprises three movements: “Five Short Studies,” “Fugue and Fantasy,” and “Anthem and Aria.” Before the work’s February Carnegie Hall premiere, Mackey explained his approach in an online music magazine: “I wanted the piece to be connected to the assassination but not be dependent on it. The governing metaphors for the work were more abstract than representational. A dominant thread throughout the piece is the exploration of the dialectic between public versus private as manifested in the events of late November, 1963.” To clarify the statement Mackey then brought in his personal recollections of the tragedy. “I was seven years old. I was home from school sick in bed, watching TV, when the news broke in. I heard my neighbor burst in the house screaming the news to my mother. They both became transfixed by this international news story while sobbing as if it was their personal loss. “Another example is the idea of a state funeral, which is a very public event governed by strict protocols. The members of the family are in some sense performing the rite for the sake of a broader public and for that performance a certain dignity and stoicism is assumed. Yet, their own deep loss and personal grief have to be dealt with at some point. “The third movement — ‘Anthem and Aria’ — embodies that dialectic quite clearly: an anthem is typically a musical expression of public feelings like patriotism, devotion, etc. while an aria is the place in an opera where an individ- ual character expresses personal emotion.” The composer notes that another thread connecting the piece to the assassination was the simultaneous chaos and control on many different levels. “I see this as being related to the idea of public and private or group versus individual. The swirling chaos of a manhunt and the meticulous, microscopic examination of the sixth floor of the book depository for clues. A frenzied race to the hospital while Jackie Kennedy immovably comforts her husband. ‘Fugue and Fantasy’ embodies this kind of contrast in that a fugue is a highly structured musical form but, in this case, it’s expressive character is wild, even chaotic.” The title, Mackey says on his website (stevenmackey.com), connects to Jackie Kennedy, who “had been given a bouquet of roses when she landed in Dallas. Immediately after the president and governor Connally were taken into the emergency room at Parkland Hospital a Secret Service agent examined the limousine for bullets or other possible clues but found only a solitary blood soaked red rose on the floor of the car.” At the work’s premiere the New York Times wrote that “‘One Red Rose’ showed Mr. Mackey’s expert grasp of the string quartet idiom: not only the timbres, textures and expressive effects of its component instruments, but also the genre’s distinctive capacities for parity, transparency, and discernible impact of disparate, simultaneous threads.” Mackey is the award-winning professor of music and chair of the department of music at Princeton University, where he has been a member of the faculty 1985. With the electric guitar his entry into music, his work combines Western formal and popular traditions. “I want music to be very human,” he says. “It’s not that I’m on a mission to make music more accessible with vernacular music. I just think that’s how music should go, and my models are Mozart and Stravinsky.” “One Red Rose” will be performed on a program with Beethoven’s “Quartet in D Major, Op. 18, No. 3” and Mendelssohn’s “Quartet in D Major, Op. 44, No. 1.” Brentano String Quartet, Richardson Auditorium, Friday, September 27, free (reservations required).

The work is based on the monumental 60-piece Migration Series paintings by the important AfricanAmerican (and New Jersey native) artist Jacob Lawrence (19172000). The works depict the movement of African-Americans from the south to northern cities during the early 20th century. Bermel, who ended his tenure at the institute in June, notes on his blog (www.derekbermel.com) that he was a young boy in New York City when he encountered Lawrence’s ambitious artist effort. “The paintings have remained etched in my consciousness ever since, and as I began work on this piece, many of the sounds in my head evoked memories of the series. Because Lawrence didn’t regard the paintings as separate entities, but instead as components of a larger cycle, it felt natural for me to focus on the shapes, colors, moods, and atmospheres evoked by groups of scenes within the series, rather than individual paintings. In this grand American story, I gravitated toward the larger themes, those of determination, mystery, despair, and hope; Lawrence’s unique sense of perspective and distance — his generosity and universality of narrative — allowed the space for me to add.” The composition — in five movements connected by three interludes — strives to convey both the emotions of what the composer calls the “grand American story” as Palmer Square presents STYLIN’ ON THE Featuring THE SALON PURE SQUARE CUT-A-THON Benefitting The Parkinson Alliance 100% of the proceeds go to The Parkinson Alliance!

The music evokes southern landscapes and moving trains, rising hopes, the pain and despair of racial prejudice, and an entry into American spaces where joy, fear, and hate collide. In a statement about his work Lawrence — whose parents came north to Atlantic City (where the artist was born) to Philadelphia and then Harlem — says, “For me, a painting should have three things: universality, clarity, and strength. Universality so that it may be understood by all men. Clarity and strength so that it may be esthetically good. Most of my work depicts events from the many Harlems that exist throughout the United States. This is my genre. My surroundings.” The composer reflects the voices of black artists and says his “’Migration Series’ is a concerto for jazz band and orchestra, influenced by many of my compositional heroes, including Charlie Parker, Stevie Wonder, Sarah Vaughan, Eric Dolphy, Thelonious Monk, John Zorn, and the rappers Rakim and Mos Def.” “Migration Series” will be part of the October 4 through 6 weekend when the orchestra pays tribute to the 150th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation, working on an arts and history weekend developed in collaboration with the Princeton University Art Museum, the Princeton Public Library, the Historical Society of Princeton, the Princeton Adult School, and the Princeton Committee of the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund.

And nowhere is change more evident right now than in fashion. Get ready to be inspired by the way fall is shaping up. Literally. Shoulders are rounder, skirts are fuller, lengths are longer, and coats bigger. And while you might not be ready to say goodbye to your pencil skirts and leggings (and why should you? They’ve become fashion basics), you will want to incorporate some of these key pieces into your fall wardrobe, and we can show you how. We’ve done the work for you. We’ve edited this year’s trends and selected the ones that are not only game-changers, but can be interpreted in a way that’s right for you and your personal style. That’s change we can all live with, isn’t it? Here are some of the key trends that inspired us. We think they’ll inspire you too! The Look of Leather: Whether faux or the real thing, nothing looks better than leather this season. Take your pick. The refined Moto jacket (retro chic), a laser cut skirt or dress, leather detail on the shoulder or sleeve, or anywhere, and leather leggings, if you dare. This fall there’s lots of leather to love. Why not have it all? The Statement Sweater: The sweater is back, big time. But forget your basic pullover. This season’s sweaters mix fabric with knit, play with patterns, are hi-low or cropped, and put a new spin on the classic cable, fisherman and cardigan. Hello sweater girl! The Coat to Covet: It’s deconstructed, oversized, with a rounded shoulder, and preferably in in a pastel. Make room in your closet. This is the coat you’ll want to wear ... and wear ... and wear. Does anything look newer? Get Fit ... and Flare: While coats have gotten boxier, you might say almost masculine, the dress you’ll want this season is nipped at the waist and begs for a belt. (Think Grace Kelly.) So many of fall’s best looks have a retro vibe, and this look is no exception. Wear it with a leather Moto or classic jean jacket and it’s anything but demure. Yes, sparks Linda Martin Owner, Style Advisor will fly! Sky High Boots: Don’t abandon the bootie just yet, but do add a boot that’s high and mighty and over the knee. It gives a long, lean look to anything you’re wearing. A great sweater, leggings, and this boot. It’s easy dressing that’s still pulled together. It will be your go-to look for fall. Flat heel, chunky heel or stiletto. It’s the boot to buy. The Skirt ... It’s Come Full Circle: When was the last time you bought a skirt and got excited? I thought so. Try one of this season’s circle skirt and get ready for a thrill. There’s something nostalgic about the whirl of a skirt that’s fuller and longer. Wear it with a cropped sweater and a kitten heel. Ahhhh. Be-Jeweled: Embellishment is everywhere! Chunky stones in regal jewel tones on dresses, jackets, accessories and in jewelry. Fabrics with shine for day time. Touches of gold braiding and laceappliques. The look is pure luxe. It’s opulence at its finest and the ultimate gilt trip! Inspired fashion, at prices that are more than affordable, an inviting store, and warm, friendly service from people who love what the do. Plus all the trends you’ll want to wear this Fall.

Arts in Schools Young Audiences New Jersey & Eastern Pennsylvania and Target are teaming up to offer arts education grants of up to $10,000 each, to selected New Jersey and Eastern Pennsylvania preschools, elementary, middle, and high schools. Grant recipients will work with YA’s staff, and a roster of more than 300 professional teaching artists, to plan high-quality arts programming tailored specifically for their schools’ unique needs. The grants are designed to bring inspiring arts experiences including performances, hands-on workshops, and professional development delivered by YA’s team of professional teaching artists. Designed to foster creativity within schools and communities, each customized program is developed to maximize students’ experiences with quality arts programs, provide opportunities to understand the cultural importance of the arts and creativity, and connect to classroom curriculum and their lives. Each grant will also provide support for selected school to create a community celebration as a culminating event. “We are thrilled that Target has U.S. 1 27 renewed the funding for this special program. Their generosity and belief in the importance of arts and creativity as a critical part of education for every child is inspiring. “ said Larry Capo, president and CEO of YA. “The grants come at a critical time, when schools throughout the region are still dealing with major cuts to their arts programs. Our continued partnership with Target ensures that children will receive quality arts programming-and develop the creative, innovative skills they’ll need to succeed in life.” Grants will be awarded on a competitive basis, with priority given to schools in financial need.

Kauffman Candid Camera: Mancuso’s photos of St. Patrick’s Cathedral, left; pedestrians on West State Street in Trenton; and a selfportrait. M ichael Mancuso has been a photographer for almost as long as he can remember. He has also been a Times of Trenton photographer for what seems the same amount of time, a point that will more than meet the eye during his current solo exhibition, “Weather or Not: Photographs by Michael Mancuso,” on view at the Chapin School gallery starting Tuesday, October 1, and continuing to Friday, October 25. Born and raised in Trenton, Mancuso learned photography from his father, who, Mancuso says, was a computer programmer, “kind of before computers were computers,” for the state; his mother was a homemaker. The older Mancuso was a serious hobbyist, owned several Leica cameras, and had a darkroom in their house. By the time his son was eight years old, he had his own camera. His early pictures, he says, were pretty much of whatever was around: family, friends, and the streets and neighborhood of his South Cook Avenue home. This laid the foundation for his life as a photographer, a connection indicated by the image on Mancuso’s press pass: a picture of him at age eight. It was shortly after his first child was born that Michael remembered his father saying, “Mike, now that you have a kid, why don’t you get a real camera?” He took his dad’s advice and kept a “real” camera with him on his job driving a mail truck for a contractor around Allentown. He then began taking and bringing pictures to the local Allentown newspaper, the Messenger Press. After some success there, he approached the Trenton Times, which began to use him as a part-time weekend photographer. After several years he was offered a full-time position. Though intimidated by the professionalism of the other photographers, he decided to trust his boss’ obvious belief that he was up to the task, already proving himself during his years as a part-timer. Working full time for the paper with long-time staff photographers placed Mancuso in a great environment for learning his craft. As in any job having a mix of veterans and newcomers, the work proved to be a very valuable and important way to gain experience. “When I started there,” Michael says, “the old timers, so to speak, were guys saying we used to use 4x5’s and Speed Grafixs and now I would tell people I used to use film.” He remembers how the veteran photographers — Herman Lasker (who hired him), John Petreus, Tom Heard, and Steve Zerby — were very helpful in mentoring him in his early days. Mancuso maintains the legacy of the professionals who became his teachers and says, “a good newspaper photo communicates information to the viewer in a clean, concise way. It has depth. It’s nice if it has something visually compelling, or at least visually interesting about it, too, but if not, if it communicates, it’s effective.” Now with 29 years on the job, Mancuso says being a professional news photographer is not without its challenges, especially getting a picture when people are experiencing personal tragedies. “When I’m there, I have to be there. I try to project being unobtrusive. I don’t get in the way. I just tell them how I feel without speaking, like I’m telling them I’m sorry I have to be there. I’m sorry for your suffering. I don’t have the attitude like I’m here to get a picture. I think everything about me projects that,” he says. “The most difficult situation in recent memory,” Mancuso says, “was photographing the funeral at Jerusalem Baptist Church in Trenton for TreDevon Lane, a 19-year old young man who was killed pushing others to safety in a hail of gunfire on New Willow Street in Trenton in September of 2012. I put on a suit and tie and made discreet photographs mostly from behind the sanctuary and up in the balcony. I had later heard from Times writer Alex Zdan that TreDevon’s mom, Regina Thompson Jenkins, was pleased with the pictures. I felt relieved when I heard that. Then this past August after an anti-gun violence event on the statehouse steps, which she was a part of, she approached me and told me herself that she appreciated the photos from her son’s service. That’s a real high point in my career.” Other high points include New Jersey Press Photographer and the National Press Photographer awards and two of his photographs placed in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. “That was always my dream, organ concert organ concert christopher houlihan christopher houlihan Wednesday Music of Franz Liszt september 25 Johann Sebastian Bach Louis Vierne Wednesday Music of Franz Liszt 8 pm Maurice Duruflé Charles-Marie Widor september 25 Johann Sebastian Bach Louis Vierne University Chapel Duruflé | Admission free 8 pm Maurice Charles-Marie Widor University Chapel | Admission free SEPTEMBER 25, 2013 to get in the Football Hall of Fame. And since I couldn’t make it as a player; it’s nice to have a picture or two there.” Mancuso has been a witness to change and remembers how the advent of digital photography has changed the industry. What once took hours is now almost instantaneous. “It was rough in the beginning because digital wasn’t really worth it when it first came out. And we didn’t adapt all that early at the Trenton Times. We had a little time to learn PhotoShop. Now with digital you can have a really fast turnaround, you can do high volume. No waiting time. But it’s really the same skills; you just transferred it to the computer from the darkroom.” He says that as digital technology becomes more sophisticated, there are other advantages. “With the embrace of new technologies come more possibilities. The online presence of the paper, for a photojournalist, has at least one major upside. Before there was an online, we would shoot most as- signments and turn in one or two storytelling photos because that’s all there would be room for in print. Anything that didn’t make the next day’s paper, no matter how relevant or compelling, would likely never be seen outside the newsroom. Now the photo reporting can be more in-depth because additional photos can be posted online,” he says. Print journalism in general has a lot of competition. Twenty-four hour cable news, movies-on-demand, and the Internet have not only changed the way people receive information and created competition for its delivery, it has also changed the way that people perceive the creation of images. “Photography has gotten devalued because everybody can get a decent or pretty good or excellent camera, but you know that just because everyone has a computer doesn’t mean that everyone is a writer either. But right now it seems like such a proliferation, people aren’t looking so much for quality stuff; they just want a lot of pictures, just like if you write and you just wrote down everything you said. Well let’s work on that and make it coherent. So I’m looking forward to having a little bit more in the future. People will realize that I can’t look at every picture ever taken, let me just look at something that’s put in a form that’s similar to writing.” A s an example, this past summer the “Detroit Free Press” fired all of its photographers and gave journalists iPhones. This has sent shockwaves through the industry. While the idea has not been floated at the Times of Trenton, Mancuso sees Detroit as an “experiment” that he hopes doesn’t work. He says that you still need writers and editors to craft stories and get things a certain way, the same thing with visuals. He says that he heard about Detroit the same way one might hear about a bad weather story: saying “wow” and hoping that it would not hit the paper. While once Mancuso routinely covered stories in New York or Philadelphia, northern and southern New Jersey (as attested by the photographs in the exhibition), the Times is now focused on Mercer County and carries state stories and photos from its larger affiliation, the Star Ledger. Maintaining his busy photography pace, Mancuso also works as a wedding photographer (and as a matter of full disclosure, he shot this writer’s wedding nine years ago) and provides some limited freelance work. Most people who hire him know what they are getting as he says, “I do what I do.” He also plays guitar with a classic rock band called “Big Chill.” You can catch the band playing in the Bucks County areas of Pipersville, Peddlers Village, or the Washington’s Crossing Inn. Though he has covered almost every subject as a news photographer, Mancuso is using his exhibition to show something that would be accessible to everyone without getting too dark or too deep. “Weather or Not” comprises many weather-related photographs, some U.S. 1 29 done on assignment with the paper and some not. All proceeds from the sales of photographs from the exhibit will go directly to “The Times Annual Appeal.” In the past charities supported by the appeal included the Trenton Area Soup Kitchen and the Rescue Mission. While a charity for this year’s appeal has yet to be named, an announcement is expected in the next several weeks. “This is my first solo show,” says Mancuso. “It’s only because (Chapin curator Dallas Piotrowski) asked. I’m so tuned in to the daily newspaper way of doing things, I’m not inclined to take the time and effort to show work outside of the daily newspaper world. I hope seeing the show will inspire (the viewer) to appreciate the simple joy of seeing.” Weather or Not: Photographs by Michael Mancuso, Gallery at Chapin, Chapin School, 4100 Princeton Pike, Princeton.

A few hundred feet away is the “office” of D&R Greenway Farm Manager Bill Flemer. In this shed, where farm equipment is stored, he is building an enormous wooden trailer in the shape of a guitar — it will be used for transporting musical instruments. His life combines passions for making music and growing things, and lucky for him, the two overlap. Flemer’s Riverside Blue Grass Band will perform during a special dedication ceremony for the barn on Saturday, September 28, from 5 to 8 p.m. Flemer is excited about the new barn — in it he can dry and store the native plant seed he has been raising at St. Michaels for the New York City Parks Department. The site of the former St. Michaels Orphanage was preserved by D&R Greenway Land Trust in 2010. With 360 acres of preserved farmland, part of the property is used for pasture, part is walking trails, and several acres have been set aside for the native seed project. An existing barn on the property was so old passersby could see right through its broken and missing slats. So the Greenway worked with the New Jersey Barn Company and several partners and donors to restore a 19th-century timber frame barn from Belle Mead. The original barn was razed at the end of August after the nesting barn swallows had completed their life cycle. Nesting holes and boxes have been built into the new barn, says Flemer. “We hope they will find the new barn a welcoming place to raise their babies. We’ll leave the windows open so they can nest in the rafters and be a part of the landscape as they always have been.” Flemer knows about welcoming babies. His first grandchild, born this year to his daughter Emma and her husband, Jake Morrow, comes to rehearsals and performances, often in a sling attached to her mother. Emma and Jake are two of the members of Riverside. Flemer’s granddaughter is immersed in the music, just as Emma and her sister, Nell, were with their parents. And Flemer learned his first guitar chords from his father, William Flemer III. William III played cowboy songs, according to his son, and his mother, who had been a music composition major at Sarah Lawrence in the ’40s, played mandolin. “My father’s Martin guitar was always under the piano,” Flemer says. Flemer’s mother sang with the Princeton Musical Amateurs Society, practicing Sunday nights in the gym at Miss Fine’s School. “She would bring us kids,” he says. Flemer’s older sister, Louise, became a member of Princeton Pro Musica. Bill grew up in Kingston, where his father and Uncle John ran Princeton Nurseries. His great grandfather, William Flemer, founded the nursery in 1913. Princeton Nurseries was internationally renowned for providing strong cultivars of exceptional beauty and was one of the largest commercial nurseries in the country, selling to municipalities and even the New York City Parks Department. The allee of elm trees on Washington Road leading into Princeton and the towering London Plane trees lining Mapleton Road in Kingston are just two of many contributions the Flemer family has made to the region. In its heyday, Princeton Nurseries encompassed 1,200 acres in Plainsboro, Kingston, West Windsor, Princeton, and South Brunswick, employing 300 people and providing the water for Kingston. Here, disease resistant elm trees were developed to be planted from Boston to Chicago and Washington, D.C., when, after World War I, shade tree commissions set out to beautify our cities and towns. William Flemer III held patents for October Glory Red Maple, Greenspire Linden, and the Shademaster Locust, as well as various machinery, including a tree digging machine. Princeton Nurseries was an innovator in bare-root shipping, a lighter way of transporting trees without heavy root balls during the dormant season. The firm closed its Kingston operation in 1995 and closed its Allentown facility in 2009. Development had increased property values and pushed agriculture further south. There was also increased competition from box stores. When the Allentown facility closed in 2009, the John and William Flemer families preserved 1,900 acres — the largest farmland and open space protection transaction in state history, more than five times the size of St. Michaels. I n 1997, when the Kingston property was sold to Princeton University, Friends of Princeton Nursery Lands formed to preserve and protect the historic agricultural property at Mapleton Preserve. Today it is 230 acres of passive open space, with offices in the former Princeton Nurseries headquarters, renovated in the mid 1900s by Princeton architect Rolf Bauhan. Historic trees are preserved and an arboretum has been established with cultivars developed by Princeton Nurseries. Earlier this month, FPNL held a celebration of Princeton Nurseries 100th anniversary. The musical entertainment? Bill Flemer’s other band, the Bare Root Band. Beginning at age 14, Bill found friends to make music with — music was a language for them. While at PDS he played at dances and parties with rock bands. In the 1960s he formed a band, the Steel Hinge. At the University of Wisconsin Flemer studied botany and horticulture. He played in bands, then left school to pursue music, playing in a country rock band in Madison, Wisconsin, in the mid-1970s. He was first exposed to bluegrass there, and when he returned to New Jersey to work in his father’s nursery business, he formed his first bluegrass band. The Tokamak Mountain Boys (thus named because the banjo player worked at Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory where that magnetic device was used), together from 1979 to 1987, included some of the same band members as Riverside Bluegrass: Steve Hendershott on mandolin and fiddle, and David Olsen on five-string guitar. In the late 1980s Flemer and his first wife, Jane, moved to North Carolina with Emma and her younger sister, Nell, and he started his own nursery business there, as well as joining a country band, Irons in the Fire. Emma and Nell were given a foundation in classical music and fiddle technique from their mother, a pianist and music teacher who was teaching at the New School in Kingston when Flemer first met her. F lemer, who doesn’t read music, taught his daughters to play by ear, giving them guitars at ages 12 and 9. “They grew up singing harmony in the back of the car going to and from North Carolina,” says Flemer, an autodidact in six-string guitar, bass guitar, and bass fiddle. “Growing up in a musical household trained my ear,” he says. “People who grow up surrounded by music develop an ear. It’s the folk tradition for the music to go from one person to another that way. “Reading opens a world of classical music, but it makes it harder to develop an ear,” he continues. “In high school band you’re given sheet music, but if let loose to improvise, people who rely on sheet music have a harder time. And conversely, those of us who learn by ear have a harder time submitting to the discipline of playing by sheet music. It’s harder to make yourself read if you already play music you like without reading it. Of ‘People who grow up surrounded by music develop an ear,’ says Bill Flemer. ‘It’s the folk tradition for the music to go from one person to another that way.’ Family Fiddlers: The Riverside Bluegrass Band inclues, from left Steve Hendershott, Emma Flemer Morrow, Jake Morrow, Bill Flemer, and David Olsen. course serious musicians surmount this and do both.” When he returned to Princeton in 1993, Flemer found his old bandmates and they were reborn as Riverside. In 2007, Emma, who majored in creative writing at Ithaca College and is developing the school garden at the Lawrenceville School, joined Riverside. When sister Nell is in town, she plays with the group. Morrow, who played trumpet in the Princeton High School band and teaches Latin at the Lawrenceville School, came on board in 2009 — he plays guitar, mandolin and bass. “It’s a gift to be able to make music with family,” says Flemer. “It’s a form of communication between generations. A lot of what Riverside plays comes from Emma and Jake — they’re plugged into contemporary bluegrass and are teaching us.” Riverside Bluegrass Band will perform at the St. Michaels Farm Preserve Barn Celebration Saturday, September 28, 5 to 8 p.m. — other activities include music and movement with Music Together, a nature walk at 5:15 p.m., tours of the new barn led by the New Jersey Barn Company, and yoga at sunset led by Lara Heimann from Yogastream Studio in Princeton. Guests are invited to bring picnic suppers, and Hopewell area food vendors will offer refreshments for sale. There will be dancing to music by Riverside Bluegrass Band at 7 p.m. Visitors can examine the barn’s special features, including a specially designed loft where barn swallows can nest.

Or stalled. Or steady. For Jeff Brinker, the answer is a lot more straightforward. His company, Distek, is doing great. And not just because he’s the president and he says so. Between some recent acquisitions, expanded facilities, new hires, and $100,000 in grants from a state that believes in the company, Distek is proving that the words “manufacturing” and “offshore” don’t necessarily have to go together. From its 23,000-square-foot facility in North Brunswick, Distek remains one of two domestic companies to make and distribute equipment for solid-state drug dissolution testing. In other words, the equipment Distek manufactures allows pharmaceutical companies large, extra-large, and small to test how efficiently pills dissolve in the body and distribute their medicines. The process of dissolution testing is an FDA-mandated step in the making and selling of drugs. Brinker is happy to know this because it means that every new company that makes pills has to at least consider the kind of equipment Distek has to offer. And the major players in the pharma game — GSK, Johnson & Johnson, BristolMyers Squibb — are already longstanding Distek clients. “We sell to all the big names,” Brinker says. “Multinationals, global companies, generic manufacturers. They’re all potential customers.” Part of what helps Distek is the fact that it operates in a small specialty field. Competitors are few. Still, Brinker is aware of them. “We have one in the United States, one that used to be in the United States, two or three in Europe, and two in India,” he says. To stay ahead, Brinker says, requires a lot of attention to fine-tuning the product and the efficiency of the manufacturing process. One of the company’s aces for staying ahead is training, and this is where the state’s $100,000 token of faith comes in. In 2012 the New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development gave Distek $49,600 to help the company train workers in lean manufactur- Distek, which produces testing equipment for pharmas, has just expanded in North Brunswick but is already looking ahead. ‘We try to innovate as much as we can.’ ing techniques, which are designed to improve efficiencies. In August the state gave Distek an additional $50,400 to expand that training. Distek is using the recent round of money to focus on training programs for supply chain management, business process analysis, and strategies that help manufacturers minimize defects. Neither grant went toward the company’s physical expansion, Thompson Management Brinker says, even though Distek recently built an additional 5,000 square feet onto its facility on North Center Drive. The company decided that becoming a hub of industry training for its workers, clients, and pharma professionals has the dual advantage of extra income from training programs and of positioning Distek as an expert in its field. Distek’s first paid training program for industry professionals begins the last week in September. The company employs about 70 and is looking to hire as many as eight new employees soon, Brinker says. “We’ve grown quite a bit.” This is a definite understatement, considering how the company began. About 50 years ago, Brinker’s father, Gerry, was a chemical engineer who sold laboratory equipment. At the time, the machine used to test the release and timing of drug pills was good, but not great. “Dad looked at it and thought, ‘I could design a better one.’” In 1976 the senior Brinker founded Distek. “He was pretty much selling out of the basement of our house,” Brinker says. “I grew up with this stuff all around me.” Even so, the younger Brinker did not start out directly in his father’s footsteps. Brinker earned his bachelor’s in mechanical engineering from Boston University in 1996 and spent the first five years or so after college working in that field. He worked for a tech company named PTC before coming to Distek in 2001 as part of its mechanical engineering team. He eventually managed the engineer- www.thompsonmanagementllc.com ■ 609-921-7655 Lawrence Office Park Office/Medical/Professional 168 Franklin Comer Road, Lawrenceville, NJ 4 miles to New Princeton Medical Center and Capital Health Regional Hospital 908-3,006 SF • Condos Available for Sale or Lease • Off of Princeton Pike & 295 Office/Medial/Professional 50 Princeton-Hightstown Rd., Princeton Jct.

Not even a month after the junior Brinker took the reins, Distek acquired the fiber optic UV line from its longtime client LEAP Technologies. The deal, however, was not so much a bold move by the new company president as an opportunity that had been in the offing for a while, Brinker says. LEAP, based in North Carolina, had suffered from the Great Recession and the idea of Distek buying out a product line that it already had been distributing just timed out well. G erry Brinker, incidentally, is still involved with the company. “I call him somewhat semi-retired,” Brinker says. The founder works a couple days a week, scheduling meetings and other light tasks. Brinker’s mother, Pearl, who has been working for the company for 20 years or so, also is still involved. She does accounting and administrative work. Brinker has two children he would like to see get involved in the company if they so desire, but he will have to wait a couple years to see how that pans out. “I have one daughter who’s four and another who’s one,” Brinker says. “It’s a little early to tell.” He does say that if either or both of his girls want to join the family business some day, he’s fine with it, but if they want to do something else, Continued on following page Call or fax us with your comments.

First and foremost is the company’s need to stay innovative and stay on top of the field. “We try to innovate as much as we can,” he says. “We’re not a ‘me too’ company. We own several patents. We’re a technologically advanced company. Not the least expensive out there, but we try to give a high level of service.” Expanding and fine-tuning its training programs are also under consideration, depending on how the experiment goes. The company also wants to bring on more sales and administrative personnel as it grows. “Over the next five years we’d like to maintain a controllable growth,” Brinker says. The company is looking to grow organically by expanding its product portfolio and possibly through acquisitions, but its aggressiveness in the field will be tempered by reason, he says. The company doesn’t want to grow too fast for its own good — which makes sense, given that Distek’s burgeoning forte is efficiency and not rapid expansion. “We want to grow, but we want to keep that small-company agility,” he says. — Scott Morgan Distek Inc., 121 North Center Drive, North Brunswick 08902-4246; 732-422-7585; fax, 732-422-7310.

Quilty, CEO. www.dermasciences.com. Derma Sciences, a medical R&D company in Carnegie Center, has made a $7 million investment in a New Zealand-based beauty product maker in order to secure its bees. Derma bought about 7.3 percent of Comvita’s shares, explaining that it planned to use the money to improve Comvita’s apiaries, where medical-grade Manuka honey is made for Derma’s Medihoney line of wound dressing products. Derma CEO Edward J. Quilty said the move was important in securing the company’s honey supply. “By making this investment, and by my joining the Comvita board, we anticipate having greater influence on the future cost and supply around our leading brand,” he said.

Marshall Cohen, a veteran manager of high tech enterprises who had replaced the young founder of the company, Darren Hammell, in 2009, now has become chairman of the board of directors and turned over CEO duties to Ken McCauley, who joined Princeton Power Systems in March as vice president of sales. McCauley had previously been director of sales at Lucent/ AT&T Microelectronics and later vice president of worldwide sales and corporate marketing at Anadigics. The press release announcing the changes said that McCauley brings “extensive international experience across more than 30 countries. including five years as a resident of China and Japan.” In becoming chairman of the board, Cohen replaced Ed Zschau, who will continue as a director of Princeton Power. Zschau, who first noticed the promise of Princeton Power Systems when Hammell and several college friends participated in his Princeton course on high tech entrepreneurism, said in a statement: “At this time of exceptional opportunity and growth of Princeton Power, there is a need for stronger board and operational leadership. Marshall as chairman and Ken as president and CEO will provide what the company needs now to become a major player in the 21st century power industry.” mon area and restroom renovations, roof replacements, and parking lot repairs. “This company is dedicated to upholding, enhancing and operating its properties at the highest level, and that philosophy is in keeping with my own,” she said. “I look forward to contributing at Princeton Pike and elsewhere as the company pursues new opportunities.” Prior to joining Prism, Carita was with Advance Realty Group. A resident of Highlands, she earned a bachelor’s degree from Crest College, and holds a New Jersey real estate license as well as an RPA designation from BOMI International. Transactions Cushman & Wakefield, 333 Thornall Street, Suite 1A, Edison 08837; 732-6234700; fax, 732-767-9534. Cushman & Wakefield has brokered the sale of 258 Prospect Plains Road in Cranbury, a 58-acre, 886,826-square-foot industrial facility occupied by Pearson Education, for $98 million. Cushman & Wakefield’s Andrew Merin, Gary Gabriel, David Bernhaut, and Grace Braverman represented the seller, Exeter Property Group. The buyer was an institutional investor advised by Seattle-based Bentall Kennedy. Gabriel said the seller had bought the property two years earlier for $80 million. He said Pearson signed a 10-year lease on the property. The facility was originally constructed in 2001 as the northeast distribution center for Pearson, an education services company that provides publications and school support products and services. It has a recently-installed $8 million solar panel array on the roof. Continued on following page Added Cohen: “The company has made real and significant progress commercializing its innovative technology installing a broad range of high-profile, advanced energy projects in markets ranging from microgrids through electric vehicle infrastructure. This reorganization will help us focus on commercial growth and building strategic partnerships” The new CEO, who has an MBA from the University of Richmond and a bachelor’s in chemical engineering from Bucknell, said that “Princeton Power has positioned itself for tremendous growth as several markets are converging today to create significant opportunities for our products and services. I look forward to leading the company through its next phase of high-growth and commercialization at home in North America, as well as in serving customer needs around the globe.” Hammell, who is still with the company as executive vice president of business development, did not immediately return a call left on his voice mail.

We Have a Place For Your Company When he wrote about North Dakota being the next “gold rush” due to the energy boom, he says at least 30 people had contacted him to say they had started businesses there. “And if I know of 30, that means there might be 60, or 90, or 200 or 1,000,” he says. He believes his most important column to date is one in which he advised readers to create a written “life plan” as well as a business plan, and to make sure the two are in synch. That’s because for Brodsky, business is not merely about making money. The column in question stemmed from a young businessman with three children asking for advice on turning his small enterprise into a larger business that would generate $20 million a year. Brodsky responded by asking him why he wanted that. The man responded that he wanted to provide a bigger house and to be able to take more time off. Brodsky told the man to ask his wife what she wanted. Weeks later, he got back to Brodsky, saying his wife wanted a big house and more money also, but that she felt it was more important for the husband to be around while his kids were growing up than it was to be rich. Brodsky told the man that if he wanted to grow his business to $20 million a year, he would never be around for his family. Instead, he advised him to stick to a more modest plan of shooting for $5 milliona-year revenues that would allow him to go home more often. In that case, it paid off for the business owner to examine what he wanted out of life rather than just what he wanted out of his business, and to spending some time fishing. Brodsky has been married for 44 years and has two daughters and one granddaughter. In addition to practicing what he preaches, there are a number of people Brodsky turns to when he himself needs advice, most of whom are also well-known business writers. Jack Stack, the author of “The Great Game of Business,” is one of them, along with business guru Ari Weinzweig. Brodsky says a lot of business people turn to him or others for advice because running a company can be a lonely thing, especially when it is just starting out. “They have absolutely nobody to talk to,” he says. “They can’t really tell their true feelings to their employees, or even their executive team, because of the fact that it may disrupt what they are doing.” When Brodsky asks for advice, and gets it, he doesn’t always follow it, but he always takes it seriously. “You know the business better. You’re in the business, and your gut feeling is better. If you don’t take the advice I give, that’s OK. I won’t be offended. But if you don’t think about it and mull it over before you make a decision, you’re a fool.” Just as foolish is following blindly the advice of a consultant or mentor. “What happens is, a lot of people who go for advice or who pay for advice, find it necessary to take that advice no matter what. Afterward, if something goes wrong, they blame the consultant or the outside person. If you think about it, it’s your decision, and if something goes wrong, you take responsibility for it.” For Brodsky, the hardest part about being a business person is that so many other people will live through the consequences of his decisions. If there is a consistent thread in Brodsky’s columns, it is a persistent urging of business leaders to be compassionate towards their employees. “The most important people in a company are employees,” he says. “The saying used to be, the ‘customer’s always right.’ That’s not true. The customer is not always right, and you have to have the back of your employees.” Brodsky is keenly aware of the Fast Lane Name Changes Continued from preceding page Law Office of Linda S.

That was about 10 years ago, and ever since, the 71-year-old Brodsky has come up with a new five-year life plan every year. One of his earlier plans set the goal of taking 16 weeks off every year. Reaching that goal took years of work getting his businesses to the point where he could delegate enough responsibility to be able to leave things in good hands, but it was worth it when he took a fourweek trip to Israel one summer. Currently, Brodsky’s life plan includes continuing to travel, visiting at least two countries a year, “unwinding” his businesses, staying healthy, losing weight and The saying used to be, the ‘customer’s always right.’ That’s not true.

You control their lives, what they get paid, the hours they work, and how they are treated for a good part of the day.” That’s why the hardest decision he ever had to make was to cut his losses and shut down Perfect Courier 26 years ago. “It cost thousands of people their jobs,” he says. “I swore to myself I would never let that happen again.” And it didn’t. When it came time to sell CitiStorage in 2007, Brodsky had the choice of whom to sell it to. The most lucrative offer came from a strategic partner, another player in the business that was ready to go with its own infrastructure. He knew that this company was offering more money because they would be able to save overhead by purchasing his company and letting go many of the administrative staff. His other choice was to sell it to an outside entity that was going to run the business mostly as it was. Brodsky says he estimates he sold it for about $20 million less because he went with the second option, the one that spared his employees. “I was getting enough money anyway, and I wanted to have the best impact for my employees,” he says. Brodsky spends a lot of time thinking about the future, and trends that people might be able to capitalize on. At the moment, he sees two major movements that will have a large impact on business. The first is that he sees young people favoring living in the city versus the suburbs, where their parents and grandparents aspired to live. “People want a sense of neighborhood, and a sense of being close by to conveniences,” he says. The second is that many of the people coming to him for advice are also working full-time jobs. Their businesses are things they can run from a computer, to supplement their standard of living. They aren’t putting all their eggs in one basket. “It used to be that you went out and raised money from relatives, you quit your job, and you started your business. You had a lot at stake and you created jobs. Even if things got tough, you had to stay in there.” The part-timers, he says, hardly create any jobs, and that is eal Estate on 1-2600 one reason he believes unemployment remains stubbornly high. One thing is sure: even as society changes, Brodsky will be trying to figure out how to fit in. When Brodsky got into business, computers were very rare. Only universities had them, and Brodsky wasn’t interested. Today, Brodsky has traded a desk for a tablet computer and never wants to go back. “If I can’t run it from an iPad, I’m not interested,” he says. — Diccon Hyatt U.S. 1 47 Lawrenceville Office 1200-6500 SF Wednesday, October 2 Skilled Volunteers Make an impact V Donating Skills: Eleanor Horne will be among the honorees at the October 2 VolunteerConnect reception at Grounds for Sculpture.

We Have a Place For Your Company VolunteerConnect Continued from preceding page College of New Jersey. She is currently a member of the boards of the D & R Greenway Land Trust, the College of New Jersey, Young Audiences of New Jersey and Eastern Pennsylvania, the Princeton Area Community Foundation, and the National Network of State Teachers of the Year. The Corporate Impact Award goes to Janssen Pharmaceuticals Inc., which has partnered with many organizations in Mercer and Somerset counties on a wide range of educational, social, environmental, and community programs. Janssen’s financial support has been instrumental in assisting VolunteerConnect’s transition over the last year. Robin Fogel, president of the board of trustees for VolunteerConnect, cited the work of Janssen’s Peg Forrestel in helping to coordinate the company’s support of VolunteerConnect. At the October 2 event VolunteerConnect will also honor a community partner: The Princeton Area Community Foundation (PACF). Led by executive director Nancy Kieling, the Princeton Area Community Foundation is a public charity serving central New Jersey. Through its guidance, financial support, and partnership, PACF has helped VolunteerConnect transition into an organization that supports area non-profits to be more successful as well as to develop a skills-based volunteer program. “Non-profits are constantly being asked to do more with less, and very often projects that don’t fall under direct services, but that would improve efficiency, outreach or service delivery fall low on the budget priority list,” Klein says. “We help them dust those projects off and get them completed by linking them with professionals looking for opportunities to use their skills in marketing, finance, research and other areas for community benefit.” Business Meetings Wednesday, September 25 5 p.m.: McGraw-Hill Federal Credit Union, Financial literacy seminar, Mandi Woodruff, personal finance editor at Business Insider.
