    Nineteen officers graduate from police academyBY HEATHER FIORE

    The West Windsor Sun

    Nineteen new officers joinedcounty police departments onAug. 2, when they formally gradu-ated from the Mercer County Po-lice Academy at Mercer CountyCommunity Colleges Kelsey The-atre. The officers, who are part ofthe ninth basic class of police offi-cers, were inducted into variouspolice departments throughoutMercer County and HunterdonCounty after successfully com-pleting their 22-week stint oftraining at the MCPA, which wascreated in October 2006 and is lo-cated on the grounds of theMCCC.

    Three of the graduates will jointhe West Windsor Township Po-lice Department Carlos Abade ofUnion, Edward McQuade of Jack-son and Sean Van Ness of Hamil-ton. An array of police officers,police chiefs and county digni-taries crowded the Kelsey Theatrewith around 100 family membersand friends to celebrate this

    achievement.There is no profession in our

    society that is as diverse as that ofa law enforcement officer, said AlPaglione, director of the MCPA.The job that these officers haveembarked upon is never going tobe easy, but the rewards that theywill experience far outweigh thedifficulties of the profession.

    New Jersey is a gambling state.

    Always has been even before

    Resorts International opened

    its doors as the first legal casino in At-

    lantic City in 1978.

    Weve had gambling politicians,

    gambling speak-easy owners and gam-

    bling residents from the beginning.

    We embrace the culture.

    Atlantic City, to us, isnt some for-

    bidden place where only degenerates

    and low-lifes go to satiate a fix. Its a

    place where adults, young and old, go

    to stay and play.

    Casinos are part of our upbringing.

    Whether we frequent them or not,

    theyre always in our minds. They

    highlight the skyline of the coast and

    hog a significant portion of our news.

    So its no surprise that New Jersey

    wants more.

    This year, gaming in the state will

    enter a new dimension when a ban on

    internet gambling is lifted. 888 Hold-

    ings, a London-based gaming compa-

    ny, will provide its technology to Cae-sars Interactive Entertainment and

    will also launch operations under its

    own brand later this year.

    The company is doing the same in

    Nevada and Delaware, two states,

    which maybe not coincidentally

    have the other thing that New Jersey

    wants: Sports gambling.

    Just last week, Congressmen Frank

    LoBiondo and Frank Pallone hit the

    campaign trail for sports gambling

    in Atlantic City, professing the need

    for two bills they re-introduced in Feb-

    ruary.

    Theres a federal ban on the practice

    in states not named Nevada, Delaware,

    Oregon and Montana, but these legis-

    lators and others in the state are

    hoping to overturn that law. The Third

    Circuit Court of Appeals is currently

    hearing an appeal regarding it.

    Legal and gaming experts say they

    feel fairly certain that, at some point,

    the federal law will be overturned and

    sports betting will be legal in New Jer-

    sey.

    And we cant wait for that day. Not

    because we want to place a sports bet

    legally at a window in Atlantic City,

    exactly, but because it will finally help

    end the hypocrisy around the discus-

    sion. Millions, maybe even billions, of

    dollars are being bet on sports in this

    country every year, most of it illegally.

    Why its OK to do so in Nevada, or as

    close as Delaware, and not New Jersey,

    is beyond our comprehension.

    If we can have casinos that are high-

    ly regulated by an independent agency,

    why cant we also have betting on

    sports? Its a practice that makes sense

    to legalize, tax and control.

    Ready to gamble (some more)Now is not the time for New Jerseyto fold em in fight for more gambling

    Free bicycle registration program during AugustDo you bike in West Windsor? Want to

    prevent your bicycle from being stolen, es-pecially at the train station and other pub-lic parking locations?

    Want to increase the chance of recover-ing your bike if it is stolen? Consider par-ticipating in the free bicycle registrationprogram being offered by WWBPA and the

    West Windsor Police Department. WWBPAand WWPD are launching the free pro-gram this month as a service to everyonewho bikes in West Windsor.

    Its similar to the program offered atPrinceton University for riders on campus

    and commuters at the Princeton DinkyStation. How does it work? Simply down-load a form, fill it out with your bikes de-scription and serial number and return theform to the police department or theWWBPA to get your bike registration tag.

    The self-adhesive aluminum tags attacheasily to your bike frame (instructions),

    are very difficult to remove and make yourbicycle less desirable to thieves.

    Each tag has a unique number and yourregistration provides the West Windsor Po-lice with contact information that makes iteasier to ID and return stolen bicycles to

    their rightful owners. Bike ID registrationforms are available on the WWBPA web-site, at the West Windsor Police Depart-ment at 271 Clarksville Road, at the policewebsite, and at various events whereWWBPA appears, e.g. West Windsor Farm-ers Market and other announced events.

    After you fill out the registration form,

    deliver it to the West Windsor Police De-partment or WWBPA at the Farmers Mar-ket on alternate Saturdays to pick up yourself-adhesive numbered ID tag(s) and havethe tag numbers added to the registrationform.

    PEASANT PRICES.Students independently publishtheir game Lunch War

    After working together on a

    project for one of their Game De-sign classes, Mercer County Com-munity College students MattGuido and John-Paul Yunquehave taken their game, LunchWar, and independently pub-lished it through their newly-founded company, The AutomaticGentlemen, LLC. Guido is a grad-uate of Bordentown RegionalHigh School, and Yunque attend-ed Princeton Regional Schools.The two met in their Game Theo-

    ry and Culture class at Mercer,taught by Digital Media Arts in-structor Ric Giantisco. Theyteamed up together to work on thefinal project for the class, and,being the only team, decidedthey should take their game theextra mile. In the game, the playeris a lunch lady, whose job is tokeep the unhealthy fudgesiclesfrom an army of hungry nerds,

    bullies, jocks and teachers. She

    does this with an unending supplyof apples, her slushie machine,which gives students a temporarybrain freeze, and a janitor shecan call in for back up.

    Its an arcade game with aweird twist, Yunque said. We

    just thought, What if the gameplayer is a lunch lady throwingfood at kids? It was such a funnyidea we decided to go with it.

    After the class assignment wascompleted, Guido and Yunque de-

    cided to continue with the projecton their own time.Since then, the two have creat-

    ed a website and continued im-proving the game's design. Aftergoing to the PAX East gaming con-vention in Boston last year as at-tendees, they went this year asgame designers.

    In May, the two went to theTwo5Six gaming conference in

    Brooklyn. The conference fea-

    tured a number of talks on howgames intersect with other indus-tries. Guido and Yunque were ableto catch the interest of Mike Fut-ter, a game reviewer for Game In-former, a magazine and websitefor game enthusiasts.

    Futter reviewed their game onhis site, directing readers to checkout the students Automatic Gen-tlemen website to learn more.

    For the two students, this is thebeginning of what they hope to be

    a long-term endeavor. After be-coming an official LLC last year,they say they are in it for the longhaul. To begin marketing theirlaunch, in June, Yunque andGuido had a booth at theTooManyGames convention inPhiladelphia.

    West Windsor Chapel to

    host third Community DayBY HEATHER FIOREThe West Windsor SunFor the third consecutive year,

    the West Windsor Chapel is host-ing Community Day, a day-longevent that features a variety of en-tertainment for the entire family.

    Community Day, which is beingheld on Saturday, Aug. 17, beganin 2011 when members wanted to

    make the community aware ofthe chapels existence, said EdMacQueen, community outreachcoordinator at the WWC.

    We thought this would be agood way to engage as large anumber of people as possible, hesaid. There are a lot of new peo-ple who move to the communityon a yearly basis, and we felt a lotof people didnt know our chapelwas there, so we thought thiswould be a good thing to engage

    the community at large.For the last two years, the event

    has seen a considerable turnout,with hundreds of people in atten-dance.

    Weve seen between 75 and 100families over the years, Mac-Queen said.

    This fun-filled event will fea-ture a wide range of complimen-tary activities for children to en-

    gage in, including pony rides, amoonwalk, a petting zoo, facepainting, balloon animals, musicand much more. There will alsobe food, drinks and ice cream forpurchase at a nominal charge,and residents are welcome tobring their own if they wish, Mac-Queen said. The WWC obtainedmostly local businesses to assistin the days events, including theHamilton-based ice cream compa-ny Kona Ice, which was a huge hit

    at last years Community Day.We try to use local vendors

    whenever possible, MacQueensaid.

    Unlike previous years, themembers of the WWC are prepar-ing the food for this years event asa cost-effective measure.

    In the past, weve used localvendors, but we wanted to keep itinexpensive this year so we could

    provide more things for the com-munity to do, MacQueen said.Well have barbecue food, such ashotdogs and hamburgers, thatsort of stuff.

    The event will be held on thechapel grounds on the large fieldthats adjacent to the buildingfrom 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The raindate is the following Saturday,Aug. 24.

    The WWC is located at 401 Vil-lage Road East in Princeton Junc-tion, across from Dutch Neck Ele-

    mentary School.For more information, go to

    windsorchapel.org call (609) 799-2559.

    MCPA opento both county and

    non-county residents

    Thomas E. Foster of Hampton,who was chosen as the classspeaker, said there was no betterplace that couldve prepared himand his 18 fellow cadets for the

    job.This has been the most gruel-ing and demanding physical pro-gram that any of us have everbeen through, Foster said.

    The instructors taught us les-sons that no classroom could pro-vide. We gained discipline, dedi-cation, heart, and the ability tofind our limits and push pastthem; but, most importantly, welearned the precious skill of sur-vival. The road to this day waspaved with blood, sweat, tears and

    push-ups. We all stand here, side-by-side, individuals, united asone, he said.

    Brian Hughes, Mercer Countyexecutive, also commended the

    MCPA for its outstanding effortstraining each class of cadets, andcongratulated the new class of of-ficers on their accomplishment.

    The academy would not be anacademy without the dedicationand expertise of these law en-forcement professionals, he said.

    Other speakers who addressedthe class included Stephen Notta,

    agent at the Mercer County Pros-ecutors Office; Joseph BocchiniJr., Mercer County prosecutor;John A. Kemler, Mercer Countysheriff; and Guy Generals, vicepresident of MCCC. The MCPAconsists of two classrooms atMCCC specially designed for theneeds of law enforcement train-ing. Recruits use MCCCsgrounds, its library and its gym-nasium for training purposes. Ashooting range in HopewellTownship operated by the prose-

    cutors office is part of the acade-my as well.

    The MCPA is open to both Mer-cer County and non-county resi-dents.

    ThinkIvy is an exciting new con-sulting company started by a groupof Princeton and Harvard under-graduates less than six months ago.It specializes in one thing: helpinghigh school students get admitted totheir top colleges.

    There are several things aboutThinkIvy that make it different from thetypical college counseling company.

    For one point, ThinkIvy does a lotmore. It guides applicants throughthe entire application process. Fromday one of freshman year, ThinkIvyworks with students to build a clearplan on amassing the academic andextracurricular credentials that willdistinguish them among top admis-sion committees. This includes

    informing students on grades andtest scores they need to earn, andreferring them to supplementaltutoring if necessary. More signifi-cantly, it means connecting studentswith prestigious research intern-ships, national math/science competi-tions, and top summer programsand nonprofit opportunitiesthat will burnish theircredentials.

    Furthermore, ThinkIvyis run entirely by IvyLeague students who

    were admitted to atleast three IvyLeague or top10 U.S. universi-ties. The coun-sel given atThinkIvy willalways be themost competi-

    tive, relevant, and up-to-date.Counselors at other companies areoften 20-30 years removed from theadmission process.

    ThinkIvys decentralized approachof contracting Ivy

    undergraduates

    to handle a maximum of five stu-dents at a time also means it devotessubstantially more time and energyto its students. Whereas the typicalcollege consultant typically spendsno more than five hours editing anapplication, ThinkIvy consultantsspend 100-plus hours on each stu-dent.

    A great example of the total com-prehensiveness of ThinkIvys servic-es can be seen in a ThinkIvy studentwaitlisted by Duke University thisyear.

    Upon hearing of the studentswaitlist status, founding partnerMitchell Ng personally called thestudent past midnight and devel-oped a four-step action plan,which included both personallyediting the students letter ofinterest to Duke and tips for call-ing the regional admissions offi-

    cer. The plan worked, and the finalletter produced was so eloquentlycogent the student was admittedfrom a waitlist of thousands threedays later.

    Apart from superior services,ThinkIvy offers lower costs andaccountability.

    Unlike any college consulting com-pany in the country, ThinkIvy offers a100% money-back guarantee ofadmission to the nations Ivy Leagueand elite universities for those stu-dents purchasing its guaranteed

    package. If a student is not admittedto a list of eight top universities ofthe students choosing, all servicesrendered are free.

    ThinkIvys placement recordallows it to make such a confidentand bold guarantee. All of ThinkIvysstudents were admitted to one ofcontinued on next page

    igma Academy is an educationalinstitution with well-experi-

    enced and qualified directors dedi-

    cated to fostering a love for learning

    Admission from previous pagetheir top five choices, and 90% wereadmitted to one of their top threechoices. 90% of ThinkIvys studentsmatriculated at an Ivy League or top20 U.S. university.

    For these impressive results,ThinkIvy charges rates about a thirdthose charged by the average con-sulting company. Costs vary for indi-vidual cases, but the average studentin ThinkIvys program pays $3,500 fora full package including resume build-ing and application writing. The typi-cal college consulting company

    charges around $9,000 for consult-ing that entails college applicationediting and little else.

    Ng, who was a freshman atPrinceton when he founded ThinkIvy,and has since founded two other mul-

    timillion companies in

    internet social mediaand medical prosthetics,agrees.

    The bottom line isbetter services at lowercost, says Ng, and themarketplace does therest. That is why wehave grown so quicklyand will continue togrow.

    Ng concludes, More

    than anything else, Ifounded this company for the cus-tomer, not for the company. This isreally the basis of the companies thatsucceed the most.
