Poetry
Day
By JULIE STIPE
The West Windsor Sun
In the performing arts room at
Grover Middle School on Tues-
day, June 12, poets Joshua Ballard
and Chris Rockwell, dressed in
coordinated plaid shirts, jeans,
and sneakers, asked a group of
seventh-graders whether they en-
joyed poetry.
Out of the crowd of kids gath-
ered for the poetry workshop, two
students hesitantly raised their
hands.
The apparent lack of interest
amused Ballard and Rockwell,
but didnt seem to surprise them.
A few minutes later the duo had
students mesmerized by their
performances of original poetry,
and soon the kids were divided
into groups for a Haiku death
match.
Many kids think they dont like
poetry, Rockwell said after the
workshop, but added, At the end
of the day, they all love poems.
From Ballard and Rockwells
workshop, it is obvious that the
two are experienced in engaging
kids in a subject not usually con-
sidered cool. Both Ballard and
Rockwell have been writing and
Ordinance
may curb
massage
parlors
By JULIE STIPE
The West Windsor Sun
At a recent township coun-
cil meeting, West Windsor po-
lice lieutenant Brian Melnick
brought a proposed ordinance
before councilmembers that
police in the department hope
will help curb illegal massage
parlors.
Melnick said that West
Windsor is not alone in facing
problems with massage par-
lors where illegal activity, such
as prostitution, can take place.
Many towns in New Jersey
have similar problems, he
said, and many towns, such as
North Brunswick and Wood-
bridge, already have ordi-
nances designed to discourage
such establishments.
The police department
looked at several kinds of ordi-
nances used by other town-
ships to drive out illegal par-
lors and determined the kind
of ordinance it felt would work
best for the township.
This ordinance looks like a
good fit for West Windsor,
Melnick said.
The problem of illegal activ-
ity in massage parlors, Mel-
nick said, can be a quality of
life issue. The businesses often
set up shop in houses, and the
police department has re-
ceived many complaints from
neighbors about traffic to and

The West Windsor Sun
A missing 5-year-old West
Windsor boy who police say was
abducted by his grandfather on
Friday, June 15, in the township,
has been found safe and un-
harmed in South Carolina, the
West Windsor Police Department
announced last week.
On Tuesday, June 19, at approx-
imately 11:30 a.m., law enforce-
ment officials say they received
information that kidnapping sus-
pect, Morris Lundy, 50, of Old
Meadow Road in West Windsor,
and his grandson, David Lundy, 5,
were spotted at a McDonalds
restaurant on West Lucas Street
in Florence, S.C., by an alert resi-
dent.
The Florence Sheriff s Depart-
ment dispatched an officer to the
McDonalds, who immediately lo-
cated the Lundys.
The boy had last been seen at
around 6:30 p.m. on June 15 near
465 Meadow Road, West Windsor.
During the search, police had
said they thought the pair might
have been in Brooklyn.
Morris Lundy has been
charged by the West Windsor Po-
lice Department with kidnap-
ping, interference with child cus-
tody and endangering the welfare
of a child, police say. He was
taken into custody and is current-
ly being held in the Florence
County Jail, pending extradition,
according to reports.
David Lundy been evaluated by
medical personnel in South Car-
olina, police say. He was found to
be in good spirits and was not ex-
periencing any issues related to
his asthma, they say.
Upon his return to New Jersey,
David will be under the care of
the Division of Youth and Family
Services, according to reports.

performing poetry for many
years, and they recently traveled
across the country and back, per-
forming in poetry slams and at
open mics in 45 different cities,
and giving a few presentations to
kids along the way.
Ballard and Rockwells work-
shop at Grover Middle School was
part of the schools second annu-
al Poetry Day for the seventh
grade, which this year included
workshops by singer/songwriter
Don Guerrazzi and Rutgers MFA
students Bryanna Tidmarsh and
Michael VanCalbergh.
Workshops were held in the
morning, and an open mic in the
afternoon featured a poetry read-
ing by West Windsor Mayor
Shing-Fu Hsueh, and perform-
ances of poetry and song by Bal-
lard, Rockwell, Guerrazzi and
Grover Middle School teachers
Melissa Morris and Marry
Menna, as well as students.
Morris, a seventh-grade
teacher at Grover, began the tra-
dition of Poetry Day almost by
accident.
I found one of Chris videos
online, Morris said. After seeing
Rockwell performing poetry, Mor-
ris invited him to her language
arts class, and when other teach-
ers in the school heard about the
visitor, they asked if their classes
could get involved too.
The event turned into a poetry
day, with kids attending work-
shops with Rockwell, watching
videos, and doing poetry-related
activities at stations in the cafete-
ria.
Realizing that many kids dont
like poetry, Morris was hesitant
about a full-blown poetry day at
first, and wondered what some
kids might think about having po-
etry-related activities all day.
The response from students al-
layed her fears.
Whenever I talked to any of
the kids they had a really positive
reaction, Morris said.
This year, Morris said, she de-
cided to include a few other
guests as well. I figured we could
keep the students occupied with
more poets, Morris said. This
year, we tried to invite even more
professionals and people who are
really studying poetry theyre
living it.
In addition to inviting Guer-
razzi, Morris also contacted Rut-
gers Newark looking for poets
who might be interested in pre-
senting to the kids. I reached out
to someone at the MFA program
and got a really good response,
Morris said.
Tidmarsh, a first-year student
in the poetry masters program at
Rutgers, was one of those who re-
sponded. As someone who spent
much of her time in college avoid-
ing poetry, Tidmarsh can under-
stand students who dislike it.
It seemed so lofty, said Tid-
marsh. I didnt think it was real-
ly for me.
When Tidmarsh took a poetry
workshop at college, she found
she loved it, and her advisor rec-
ommended she consider an MFA

program in poetry.
Tidmarshs workshop at
Grover had students write poems
about what they know and about
what they didnt know. Her main
goal, Tidmarsh said, was to make
poetry accessible and unintimi-
dating. I was trying to dispel a
lot of the negative ideas they have
about poetry, she said.
Tidmarsh had kids ask ques-
tions as a starting point for poems
about things they dont know
about. Kids asked questions like
What if I were white? and
What if I werent handsome?
Some of the questions were
profound and some of them were
silly, so I thought it was a good
balance, Tidmarsh said.
Reading some well-known
poems in class Tidmarsh discov-
ered that some students were re-
luctant to talk about what a poem
meant until they knew the histor-
ical and biographical background
of the poem, but this, Tidmarsh
said, isnt necessary.
Everything you need to know
about the poem is contained in
the poem, Tidmarsh said. You
always know enough.
Fellow Rutgers student Van-
Calbergh, like Tidmarsh, also
came late to poetry. I actually re-
ally hated poetry for a long time,
VanCalbergh said.
VanCalberghs interest in poet-
ry began in college after discover-
ing Yeats. His interest soon grew,
and poetry became a large part of
his life. I ended up spending a lot
of extra time on it, VanCalbergh
said.
In his workshop, VanCalbergh
gave students a line from one of
his poems, and had them use it as
a starting point for their own
poem. The focus was family, as
something every child has experi-
enced.
VanCalbergh was impressed by
some of the responses to the exer-
cise. One student wrote a poem
from the perspective of his grand-
father when his grandfather was
a child, and his grandfather had
polio, VanCalbergh said.
Ballard and Rockwell were also
impressed by students responses.
They really hit on some subjects
you wouldnt think kids this age
would be interested in, Ballard
said. In one workshop, the word
death came up.
Poetry is a really good tool for
them to deal with subjects like
that, Ballard said. It allows
them to wander into parts of
their minds they wouldnt nor-
mally go.
Rockwell recalled one haiku
written by a student that ran,
Crazy can be good/chaos can be
good/death is our savior.
Some of them were really im-
pressive, Rockwell said.
Guerrazzi, a singer and song-
writer for a small record label
based in New York City, also had
students write poems of a sort.
In his workshop, Guerrazzi
gave kids the opportunity to write
the lyrics to a song, one line at a
time.
Students in one workshop
wrote a song about the joy of get-
ting out of school, which Guer-
razzi sang. Part of the song ran
Head in the clouds cant come
down/ Guess its time to go down-
town/Now I know why to cry/Im
feeling free like I could fly.
Guerrazzi admits that writing
lyrics isnt exactly the same as
writing poetry. I know theres a
big structural difference, Ger-
razzi said, and in poetry youre
looking for depth and symbol-
ism.
In songwriting too, he said, the
melody of a song is often able to
make up for what the lyrics may
lack. However, Guerrazzi stands
by the power of good lyrics.
They can be just as poetic as
something you might read in
class, Guerrazzi said.

in our opinion
T
he good news: New Jersey ac-
counted for 25 percent of all
new jobs created in the United
States in the month of May: 17,500 new
jobs were created.
The bad news: the states unemploy-
ment rate rose from 9.1 to 9.2 percent.
And lets be mindful: the 9.2 percent
figure really isnt an accurate unem-
ployment percentage at all.
There are countless people whose
unemployment benefits have run out,
and whose cases no longer count in de-
partment of labor statistics.
And there are others who may have
lost a job, who were ineligible for un-
employment benefits, and, again,
whose cases are not factored into the
state unemployment rate.
And so as encouraging as it is to
hear our state created the most new
jobs in the country, the overall known
unemployment numbers are still ex-
tremely alarming.
Gov. Christie says the new jobs re-
port means consumers are becoming
more confident.
The overall figures paint a complete-
ly different picture.
Were many years into this econom-
ic mess. And were still struggling as a
state, despite the so-called comeback.
While the governors 10 percent
across-the-board income-tax cut would
certainly help some, it certainly wont
help the middle class all that much.
A person making an annual salary
of $35,000 would see a whopping $1 a
week increase in take-home pay.
This is hardly enough to spark con-
sumer confidence.
Much more still needs to be done at
the federal and state levels to inspire
confidence. Realistically, the unem-
ployment percentage needs to drop to
close to 8 percent before theres any
reason for anyone to celebrate.
And even then, the numbers will
still be too high.
We look forward to the day we can
agree consumer confidence is back.
Were just not sure that time is here
yet.
States uptick in unemployment
Number rises despite creation of 17,500 new jobs; more must be done
How confident are you?
Gov. Christie says he believes con-
sumers in New Jersey are gaining
confidence. Yet the unemployment
rate jumped in May. How confident in
the economy are you? We want to
know.
letter to the editor
Perfect timing for Obamas
surprise visit to Afghanistan
On May 1, President Obama paid a sur-
prise visit to troops serving in Afghanistan
after secretly flying into the country and
landing in the dark of night. Like many
fortunate viewers in the United States and
around the globe, I happened to be tuned in
to CNN at precisely the right moment.
Watching, I scanned the crowd, hoping to
catch a glimpse of a familiar face.
Timing wise, politics did play, at a mini-
mum, some role in the arrangement.
Obama first met with Afghan President
Hamid Karzai to sign the Strategic Part-
nership Agreement (both leaders wanted
to sign the agreement before a NATO sum-
mit meeting set to take place in Chicago
later this month.) Politics aside, however,
this was one trip that couldnt have come at
a better time for U.S. troops serving in
Afghanistan.
Support for the war at home has hit an
all-time low, with one recent poll showing
66 percent of Americans now opposing the
war. Joe Kleins article Ten Is Enough, in
Time magazine last month, highlighted an-
other common frustration shared by many
Americans how our troops in
Afghanistan are perceived, particularly on
the heels of several highly publicized, un-
fortunate events involving military person-
nel.
Addressing approximately 3,200 troops
at Bagram Air Field, Obama praised our
servicemen and women for their efforts in
the war against terror, and thanked them
for the sacrifices made on their part and on
the part of their families back home to
make our country a safer, more secure
place for all.
Speaking on behalf of all Americans, he
told them that we havent forgotten they
are there.
That we admire their valor.
We are grateful for their work in protect-
ing our great nation and we are proud of
their efforts and achievements. We honor
their determination.
Currently. about 90,000 American troops
are serving in Afghanistan, although the
United States is expected to reduce that
number to approximately 68,000 come Sep-
tember. And while troop withdrawal has
been a focal point in the media lately, there
are others who have only recently been de-
ployed. My brother in law, Maj. Matt Dar-
cangelo, is one of them. In February, he
said goodbye to his family, put his career
on hold, and left behind the beautiful home
that he had worked so diligently on every
weekend for as long as anyone could re-
member to proudly serve his country.
Some relatives, when theyre around
you just know things are going to be fun.
Matts that kind of guy.
Anytime I hear Bruce Springsteens
Born in the USA, Im taken back to my
sisters wedding, and to Matt standing on
the bridal party table belting it out right
along with him.
When Matt decided he was going to
build his kids a tree house, lets just say he
wasnt fooling around. These kids have a
tree house that could rival something from
the Swiss Family Robinson. Im talking the
kind of do it yourself project you see in
magazines and wonder who on earth really
can do it himself.
Matt built a rock wall for the kids in the
yard. Suiting them all up in the safety gear
when they were as little as 3, he would talk
them all the way to the top, making sure
each had their chance to ring the victory
bell. Yes, ask any niece or nephew of his
and theyll tell you theres only one Uncle
Matty.
Unfortunately, I did not see the familiar
face Id hoped to in the crowd; as it turns
out Matt wasnt anywhere in the vicinity of
Bagram Air Field on May 1.
As for the future of Afghanistan, will
the Afghan government be able to hold its

The following items were taken
from reports on file with the West
Windsor Police Department:
On Monday, June 4 at 6:59 p.m.,
while on patrol, Patrolman Van-
Ness says he approached a suspi-
ciously located gray Mercury in
the Panera Bread Parking Lot at
510 Nassau Park with the occu-
pant, later identified as 19-year
old Princeton man, sitting in the
drivers seat with the seat in a re-
clined position.
Upon checking on his condi-
tion, Van Ness says he noticed the
odor of marijuana coming from
inside of the vehicle. An investi-
gation revealed the man was in
possession of under 50 grams of
marijuana and drug parapherna-
lia. He was placed under arrest,
taken to headquarters and
processed for the arrest. Police
say the man was issued criminal
summonses for possession of
marijuana (under 50 grams) and
possession of drug parapherna-
lia.
He was also issued a traffic
summons for possession of CDS
in a motor vehicle, police say.
He was released on his own re-
cognizance and given a court
date.
A Ewing Township resident re-
ported that on Saturday, June 9,
between 10:30 and 10:40 a.m.,
someone stole his wallet, left un-
attended on a counter at the Mc-
Donalds restaurant in Walmart
at 101 Nassau Park.
The loss of the wallet and its
contents were valued at $75, po-
lice say.
police report
own against the Taliban? Deny Al
Qaeda the chance to rebuild? Is
stability possible for this war
torn country? These questions,
like many others, remain uncer-
tain.
One thing, however, is certain.
For over the span of a decade
now, 2.4 million Americans have
served in Iraq and Afghanistan.
And behind every soldier is a
story to be told.
Stories of their humanity, of
their compassion. Their
strengths, their passions, their
feats. And so, to those who speak
of timing, ask any of us with a
loved one serving in Afghanistan
well agree it couldnt have been
more perfect.

from the house at odd hours, and
about parking problems.
But, Melnick said, its more
than just a quality of life issue,
and the parlors can have serious
effects on a community. Melnick
said he knows of situations in
which the businesses have hurt
families by causing sex addic-
tions. Sexually transmitted dis-
eases are also an issue, he said.
Furthermore, said Melnick,
when crimes such as robbery or
assault are committed against the
staff of an illegal parlor, they are
usually reluctant to report the
crime since the business itself is
illegal.
Illegal parlors are difficult to
get rid of, Melnick said, and prov-
ing illegal activity can be a
lengthy and resource-consuming
process. Police officers must go
undercover to the parlors and
prove that illegal activity at the
business is ongoing, which usual-
ly takes months.
Even after arrests are made,
Melnick said, the same parlor can
be back up and running just days
later with a new staff. The
amount of money made by such
businesses is enough that it is
worth it for the proprietor to sim-
ply bring in new employees, forc-
ing the department to begin the
process over again.
It's not easy to shut them
down, Melnick said. The crimi-
nal charges are inefficient.
The proposed ordinance would
make the proprietors of the busi-
nesses responsible for their em-
ployees. It would require parlors
to register their businesses
through the clerks office, and
have a background check done on
each staff member. Employees
would also need to be fingerprint-
ed and would be required to pres-
ent proof of citizenship. Massage
therapists would need to be certi-
fied, Melnick said, and if not,
would be fined.
Melnick admitted that the ordi-
nance wouldnt stamp out prosti-
tution immediately.
Its a tool, but its not going to
be a cure all, he said.
The ordinance would give the
department the ability to repeat-
edly fine parlors whose staff is
not licensed, eventually running
them out of town, Melnick said.
The idea is that we would be
such a nuisance that they have to
go, he said.
Council members expressed
support for the proposed ordi-
nance. Councilman George Borek
stated that the ordinance is a con-
structive way of dealing with
prostitution and seems likely to
be more effective than criminal
charges.
Certainly this seems to be a
more positive way of dealing with
this issue, Borek said.
A copy of the proposed ordi-
nance was provided to council
members for review. The ordi-
nance was to have been intro-
duced at the township meeting on
Monday, June 25.

On May 29, Benjamin
Chairnoff, of West Windsor,
visited Maple Stream Road Pre-
school in East Windsor to work
on his Tzedakah project in
preparation for his April 2013
Bar Mitzvah. For his project,
Benjamin began a recycling
program at Maple Stream.
As a Maple Stream Preschool
alumnus, Benjamin personally
observed the amount of paper
that gets sent away to dumps
around East Windsor from the
school. As a part of his project,
Benjamin periodically visits
the preschool to monitor the
students progress.
The preschoolers have recy-
cled a lot of paper and plastic.
On his first visit, Benjamin
read the book Michael Recy-
cle to the children.
On his second visit, he read
the sequel Michael Recycle
Meets Litterbug Doug.
Both books educated the chil-
dren on the importance of recy-
cling.
The children also made a fun
craft that showed them how
they can recycle at home.
Each child had an opportuni-
ty to create a Recycle Mon-
ster, where they feed their
monster scraps of paper to re-
cycle.
The preschool students en-
joyed all of the learning oppor-
tunities and were given stick-
ers as a reward for their great
job with recycling.
Special to The Sun
Benjamin Chairnoff of West Windsor began a recycling program
at Maple Stream Road Preschool located in East Windsor in
preparation for his April 2013 Bar Mitzvah.
