Mayoral ordinance

New theater group delivers laughs
By JULIE STIPE
The West Windsor Sun
West Windsor may not be a big
destination for comedy, but Mer-
cer County Community College
professor Kathryn Paluscio
might just change that.
Paluscio is the founder of the
new Rock Salt Theatre, a troop
performing family-friendly come-
dy shows at the Mercer County
Park skating rink. Paluscio teach-
es public speaking and perform-
ance-related classes at the college,
but has degrees in both speech
and theater. Paluscio has always
harbored a love of comedy, and
finds ways to combine the two
areas.
Administrators are always
calling me asking how to make
speeches more funny or interest-
ing, Paluscio said.
About six or seven years ago,
Paluscio said, one of the exercis-
es she designed for her public
speaking class asked students to
read simple texts such as menus
or bus schedules while varying
the speed and pitch of their voic-
es. The exercise went over well.
It actually ended up being so
entertaining and everyone was
having such a good time, Palus-
cio said. I thought, Ive got to do
this all the time.
Since then Paluscio has put to-
gether a number of comedy JULIE STIPE/The West Windsor Sun

2 THE WEST WINDSOR SUN SEPTEMBER 5-11, 2012
On Sept. 14 at 8 p.m., Shake-
speare 70, Mercer Countys only
classical repertory theater com-
pany, will be returning to the
West Windsor Arts Center for
their production of Yasmina
Rezas modern classic and dark
comedy, God of Carnage.
The 2009 Winner for Best Play,
which promises to be filled with
laughter, awkwardness, and
fragility, has been called Brutal-
ly entertaining by New York
Newsday, and Elegant, acerbic,
and entertainingly fueled on pure
bile by Variety.
The play brings us Veronica,
Michael, Alan and Annette, four
typical cul-de-sac parents brought
together by a playground alterca-
tion between their 11-year-old
boys. What begins as a rational
meeting of minds, quickly de-
volves into an acrimonious scene
of moral ambiguity, illustrating
that the present-day enlightened
can often go very dark.
Translated by Christopher
Hampton, our four antagonists
are magically transported from
the streets of Paris, to the sub-
urbs of Brooklyn.
The show will also play on Sun-
day, Sept. 15, at 2 p.m., Friday,
Sept. 21, at 8 p.m., and Saturday,
Sept. 22, at 8 p.m. General admis-
sion tickets are $18. Tickets are
$15 for members and seniors. Stu-
dent tickets are $10 with a valid
ID.

Mayoral ordinance
will not go to ballot
By JULIE STIPE
The West Windsor Sun
An ordinance passed by town-
ship council in July requiring the
mayor to respond to council re-
quests for information by written
report and within a specific time
period will not go to ballot due to
an amendment to the ordinance
passed in a 3-2 vote by township
council on Aug. 20.
Language in the petition initia-
tive ordinance states that the mat-
ter will go before voters in the No-
vember general election whether
it is approved by council or not,
but township attorney Michael
Herbert said the language was in-
correct, and does not match what
he told council and the public be-
fore the vote.
Herbert read a state statute
which he said made clear that
since the ordinance was adopted,
voters do not get a say.
With regard to submitting the
petition to ballot, it is my legal
opinion, as I advised the clerk and
as was agreed to by the county
clerks counsel - her attorney
down there - that we cannot sub-

Everyone loves a good adven-
ture, and Who the #$&% is Jack-
son Pollack? (2006), to be
screened on Saturday, Oct. 13, at
7:30 p.m. at the West Windsor Arts
Center, is a rollicking one.
The film is a hilarious and in-
sightful documentary that follows
the unexpected events in the life
of 73-year-old Teri Horton after
she buys a painting that is later
identified as a potential Jackson
Pollack original.
At first, the $5 thrift store pur-
chase is simply a gift for a friend,
but Horton soon realizes the op-
portunities that the painting
holds; the title reflects her unfa-
miliarity with Pollack. Through-
out the film, with the help of her
son and a forensics specialist,
Horton strives to find the truth
about the painting to prove the
value of the painting to herself
and the art community around
her.
The film is rated PG-13. This
film is presented in conjunction
with the exhibit: OUTLOUD: A
Collective of Washington, D.C.
based Abstract Artists, which
will be on display at the West
Windsor Arts Center, 952 Alexan-
der Road, Princeton Junction
from Sunday, Oct. 14, to Wednes-
day, Nov. 21.
The Washington, D.C.-based
group OUTLOUD artists have a
passion to share what abstract art
can do: open vistas of colors,
evoke feelings and moods, and
spark the imagination.
Tickets are $7 and $6 for mem-
bers. They are available at the
door. The film will begin at 7:30
p.m. Doors open at 7 p.m.

W
ere pretty sure that Repub-
lican Party leaders took a
close look at speeches before
they were delivered at the recent con-
vention. Which makes us wonder how
Chris Christies remarks actually saw
the light of day.
Make no mistake, the governor de-
livered a bang-up speech. He spoke of
values, sacrifice and the future of the
nation and his party. He had people
cheering. If theres one thing Christie
does well, its deliver a speech.
But, in his remarks, that Romney
guy seemed to be an afterthought. It
took a long time for the governor to
even mention the GOP nominee. There
was a lot of stuff about Christie, his
views and his vision, but not a lot
about trying to get Mitt Romney elect-
ed president in November.
Christie took some heat for his re-
marks the day after he delivered them.
Were guessing the heat didnt bother
him one bit.
Christies blunt, tell-it-like-he-sees-it
approach is one of the things people
like about the guy. In an era when al-
most every other politician tailors his
or her speech to whomever they are
speaking to, Christie never leaves a
doubt in anyones mind about what he
thinks. Its not always what people
want to hear. But theres something to
be said for a politician not worrying so
much about being popular and just
speaking his mind.
The governors speech certainly was
an accurate introduction to the rest of
the nation. And it set him up well for a
future presidential run perhaps as
early as 2016 should President Obama
win re-election.
Love him or hate him, Christie defi-
nitely would be an interesting presi-
dential candidate. No one will accuse
him of pandering to special interests.
No one will wonder where he stands on
issues or what he would do if elected.
In these days, where politicians
promise one thing and deliver another,
Christies openness and bluntness set
him apart.
in our opinion
Hi, my name is Chris
Governors convention address sets him up for a future presidential bid
Christie in 2016?
The governors speech at the
Republican National Convention last
week was long on vision and short on
politicking. That might not be great for
Mitt Romney, but it could serve Christie
well in four years.

Heed these tips for trees
damaged by storms
A month has passed since West Windsor
was hit with a significant storm but the
hurricane season is far from over. It is
therefore timely to remind residents what
they should and should not do when their
trees are damaged by storms:
Dont shelter under a tree during a thun-
derstorm. If you hear thunder, lightning is
closer than you might think.
Do stay far away from downed power
lines, cables or anything they may be
touching particularly metal fences, pud-
dles, other trees and vehicles that may be
electrified.
Do assume all power lines and cables are
live.
Dont touch or try to prune a broken
branch that is within 10 feet of a live power
line.
Do report blocked roadways and house
damage promptly to local police / emer-
gency services.
Dont try to clean up storm damage on
your own if there is any risk of injury.
Do put up with a large hanging branch
until a qualified and properly equipped ar-
borist is available.
Do avoid scam artists who show up with
chain saws and try to take advantage of
you after a storm. (The Townships Shade
Tree Commission is exploring the poten-
tial to offer a compilation of certified ar-
borists on its web page as a consumer pro-
tection service to residents.)
Do prune stubs of broken branches in
the approved manner close to the trunk
or main stem but not so that you damage
nearby bark. Avoid coat hooks. Repair
damaged bark by trimming.
Dont block street drains with branches
while waiting for yard waste collection.
Dont attempt to restore the shape of a
tree that has suffered the loss of its main
stem by pruning lateral branches. The re-
sult will probably be disappointing and po-
tentially dangerous. Consult a qualified ar-
borist who understands how the tree will
react to damage and pruning.
Do follow up a month or two after a
storm to check for and remedy tree dam-
age or decay which may have been hidden
by leaves or branches and which could be a
hazard in a future storm.
Do remember that trees are living and
complex. Like people, they change as they
age, are impacted by their environment
and do not live forever. Treating them well
will promote health and longevity. They
will reward your tender care.

Skip the hassle. Just get paid.
mit this to the ballot because it no
longer exists, because the ordi-
nance was amended, Herbert
said.
The ordinance as created by
the petitioners went into effect
immediately after approval by
council, but after a year the lan-
guage may be changed or re-
moved if council votes to do so. If
the ordinance had gone to voters
and been approved, it would have
remained in effect for three years,
and could only have been
changed by voters.
Because of this, Herberts
stance has angered some mem-
bers of the public who believe the
attorney is carrying out the wish-
es of the administration by foil-
ing attempts to give the ordinance
a longer life.
Four weeks ago every mem-
ber of council and the mayor
seemed to back the resolution
without reservation, said West
Windsor resident Jim Solloway.
Now fast forward four weeks
later, and we are dealing with yet
another needless controversy as a
result, perhaps, of the mayors de-
sire not to be held fully account-
able.
At the meeting, however, Her-
bert said he was the only one
stopping the matter from going to
ballot.
I have not gotten any orders
from the mayor, I have not gotten
any orders from the administra-
tion, Herbert said.
Many residents were uncon-
vinced by Herberts statement.
I think the voters and the tax-
payers of this town have made it
excruciatingly clear how we feel
about this ordinance going to the
ballot, I think its pretty obvious
that we want it to, said resident
Debbie Hepler. And if Mr. Her-
bert claims that he doesnt have
any ulterior motives, why all the
obstruction?
Former Councilman Charles
Morgan has filed a lawsuit
against the township on behalf of
the committee of petitioners,
which includes Hepler, but told
council that he would drop the
suit if council would bind itself
to the ordinance for three years.
Herbert argued that since the
council changes every couple of
years, it cannot bind itself to fu-
ture actions.
Council did not discuss the set-
tlement during the meeting.
Council president Kamal
Khanna, councilman George
Borek, and councilwoman Kristi-
na Samonte voted in favor of re-
moving language that would have
sent the ordinance to the voters,
while councilman Bryan Maher
and councilwoman Linda Geev-
ers voted against the change.

Local singer, songwriter and
musician Madeline Smith will
perform at a benefit concert and
Chinese auction at Mercer Coun-
ty Community College's Kelsey
Theatre on Saturday, Sept. 15 at 2
p.m.
The concert will benefit Fami-
lies in Transition (FIT), a non-
profit organization that provides
transitional housing for homeless
families in Mercer County while
they transition to self-sufficiency.
Kelsey Theatre is located at the
colleges West Windsor campus at
1200 Old Trenton Road.
Raised in Somerset, Smiths
talent was first discovered by her
piano teacher when she was 10
years old. Through encourage-
ment she began taking voice and
guitar lessons, which further
proved her talent as a musician.
With a southern family back-
ground, she grew up on country
music, singing Patsy Cline and
Johnny Cash, just some of the
music in her repertoire, which
also includes her own songs.
Smith has already headlined
several benefit concerts in sup-
port of community and church
organizations, including the 4-H
Fair in Bridgewater. She just put
out her first demo and will re-
lease her first EP recording in
2013.
This past April, Smith won the
American Idol Experience
singing competition at Disney
World. As a result, she was award-
ed a Dream Ticket, giving her
front-of-line precedence at any
American Idol audition in 2012.
Tickets to see Madeline Smith
in Concert can be purchased on-
line in advance for $12 per person,
by visiting www.trentonfami-
liesintransition.org. Tickets will
also be available at the door for
$15 per person. For more informa-
tion, call Michael Schaefer, FIT
Treasurer, at (609) 448-7033, or

groups and shows with students
through MCCC, but about two
years ago Paluscio decided she
wanted to reach a broader audi-
ence. She put together a business
plan for a small, family friendly
comedy company which placed in
the New Jersey National Associa-
tion of Women Business Owners
top 10 business plans.
But just having a business plan
didnt solve all her problems. The
biggest barrier was finding a
place to perform.
It was really hard to find a
place, Paluscio said. You say
theater to a landlord and they
freak out.
Paluscio finally came upon
Mercer County Park, which has
an ice skating rink that goes un-
used for much of the year. The
park was open to the idea of fami-
ly friendly comedy, and Rock Salt
Theatre has held three shows so
far in a room off the rinks lobby
area.
The theater troupe has 12 mem-
bers, mostly in their 20s and 30s.
None of the members are actors,
Paluscio said, and the group
comes from a variety of different
backgrounds.
Theyre people I guess you
could say Ive collected over the
years, said Paluscio.
Many of the members are for-
mer students of Paluscios. One of
these is Adam Politis, whom
Paluscio recently named assis-
tant director of the group. While
at MCCC Politis joined a sketch
comedy group he heard about
through Paluscio, and when Rock
Salt Theatre came together, Poli-
tis jumped on it.
I always had a drive to get into
some kind of comedy, Politis
said.
Politis knows about half the
troupe from previous shows at
MCCC, and admits its a pretty di-
verse hodgepodge of people.
Youd think that everybody
would be fighting, Politis said.
But it just works.
Shows by the group consist of
a series of different skits ranging
from three to five minutes long.
Each is carefully scripted and
choreographed, so Paluscio
prefers to call them bits.
Skits make them sound like
improv, she said.
While Paluscio writes most of
the scripts for the show, Politis
and other members of the group
help brainstorm ideas for differ-
ent scenes.
We throw ideas out on the
table, Politis said.
The show includes several re-
curring jokes, and each bit focus-
es on topics easily relatable for
most people. One bit finds come-
dy in the familiar frustrating trip
to the DMV, one pokes fun at cus-
tomer service, and another fea-
tures a self-checkout machine at
the grocery store.
We try to pick things that will
appeal to as many people as possi-
ble, Paluscio said. Its challeng-
ing. Youre trying to appeal to
teens, seniors and younger cou-
ples.
Though each scene is planned
out, the show is performed with
limited use of props and staging.
Were minimalist, Paluscio
said. We dont use lots of set de-
sign.
What props there are, though,
are well-chosen to add to the
show, and Politis said he most en-
joys working with the props.
The stuff we do with the
props is usually some of the fun-
nier stuff we do, Politis said.
Politis also enjoys the shows
unpredictability and variety, and
said the audience seems to enjoy
it as well.
I like that the audience has no
idea whats going to happen
next, Politis said.
Politis said the first couple of
shows were successful, although
some skits did not go off as well
as others, and have since been
tweaked.
Some things didnt pick up
right away with the audience,
Politis said.
To give the audience a good
time, Politis said, its important to
engage them from the start by
joking around with them at the
beginning of the show.
We try to interact with the
crowd as much as possible, Poli-
tis said.
Like the rest of the troupe,
comedy is a side pursuit for Poli-
tis, who works at a solar electric
company during the day. Comedy
is his passion, though, and Rock
Salt Theatre is a good start.
If I had the opportunity,
would I get into acting and come-
dy as a full-time career? In a
heartbeat, Politis said. But I
think if you do something you
love, the money will follow.
Rock Salt Theatre Friday night
shows will be held on Sept. 7, 14,
and 21 at 8 p.m. at the Mercer
County Park ice skating rink.
Tickets are $10 at the door, cash
only. For more information visit
