    Beginning in December,Princeton University willoffer students a meningitisvaccine that is not yet ap-proved for use in the UnitedStates, Martin Mbugua, uni-versity spokesman, an-nounced Nov. 18.

    The schools Board ofTrustees discussed the issueat its meeting on Nov. 16, anddetermined that measuresshould be taken to preventthe further spread of menin-gitis on the campus.

    Since March, there havebeen seven students diag-nosed with bacterial meningi-tis in what the Centers forDisease Control has declaredto be an outbreak at theschool.

    The latest case was a male

    student who lives in on-cam-pus housing, who was hospi-talized on Nov. 10.

    All students living on cam-pus are required to be vacci-nated for meningitis, but theseven cases at Princeton werecaused by bacterial subtypeB. The meningitis vaccine is-sued in the United States isineffective against the partic-

    ular subtype.According to Mbugua, the

    CDC is preparing to recom-mend that all Princeton un-dergraduate students, gradu-ate students who live in dor-mitories, and members of theuniversity community withspecific health conditions re-ceive Bexsero, a vaccinemade by pharmaceuticalcompany Novartis. Bexsero,which is effective againstmeningitis type B, is licensedin Europe and Australia.

    Pending final CDC ap-proval, the university is pre-pared to accept these recom-mendations and makearrangements to provide ac-cess to this vaccine as soon aspossible, Mbugua said.

    Mbugua said the first doseof the vaccine, which is mosteffective with two doses,would be administered in

    early December to the groupsspecified by the CDC.

    The vaccine would bemade available only to thesegroups, and it would not beadministered anywhere else,Mbugua said. We expect tomake a second dose availablein February. Two doses of the

    Composer pens song for JFK commemorationBy KATIE MORGAN

    The Sun

    Princeton composer StevenMackey was 7 years old in 1963,but he clearly remembersexactly where he was on Nov. 22that year.

    I was 7 years old, home fromschool in bed with the flu inMarysville, Calif., watching TVwhen the first news broadcastbroke in, Mackey recalled on hisblog. I called my mother in fromthe kitchen. She probablythought I wanted some manner ofpampering in my sickness, but

    before she reached me, I heardour next-door neighbor burst intothe house shouting the news tomy mother. They both began tosob.

    This year marks the 50th an-niversary of the assassination ofPresident John F. Kennedy, whowas shot as his motorcade woundthrough the streets of downtownDallas, Texas. Mackey has con-

    tributed to the commemorationwith a composition commis-sioned by Carnegie Hall, YellowBarn and the Nasher SculptureCenter in Dallas. The BrentanoQuartet performed the three-movement composition, titledOne Red Rose, on Nov. 23 in Dal-las.

    The performance was held atthe Sixth Floor Museum, housedin the former Texas School BookDepository. Following the assassi-nation, evidence was found show-ing that shots were fired from thesixth floor, and Depository em-ployee Lee Harvey Oswald was

    charged with the presidents mur-der.

    Mackey wrote about his com-posing process for One RedRose, and said he was initiallyunsure what perspective he want-ed the piece to take.

    As I was starting the piece, Iwanted to refresh my memoryand deepen my understanding ofthe events, Mackey wrote. I

    watched some news footage andread a couple of books. One bookI would recommend is Four Daysin November by VincentBugliosi.

    Mackey said that through hisresearch, he began to appreciatethe struggle that First Lady Jack-ie Kennedy endured during andafter the assassination.

    When I first thought ofwriting a piece to mark this an-niversary, I was focused on myrecollections of my parents grief,the loss of a great leader and thetear in the fabric of Americangovernment, Mackey wrote.

    More importantly, I gained deepempathy, admiration and compas-sion for Jackie. Focusing on Jack-ies perspective turned out to bean important source of inspira-tion.

    The title, One Red Rose, is in-spired by a footnote in Bugliosisbook, when he describes the after-math of the shooting.

    Jackie had been given a bou-

    quet of roses when she landed inDallas, Mackey wrote. Immedi-ately after the president and Gov.Connally were taken into theemergency room at ParklandHospital, a secret service agentexamined the limousine for bul-lets or any other possible cluesbut found only a solitary bloodsoaked red rose on the floor of thecar.

    Mackey said the entire piecetakes its cues from Jackie, heractions during the assassination,and the effort she undertookto give closure to a grieving na-tion.

    She was right there, Mackeysaid. The first shot that hit thepresident was in his back, andshe put her arm around him, soher head was right there whenthe fatal shot came. It was not likeshe was out of it, either. She wassort of stoic, but there was edgethere, too. People kept trying toget her to change out of herbloody clothes, but she said, no, I

    want everyone to see what theydid.

    Mackey said that while theevents of Nov. 22, 1963 marked theend of an era, the message ofOne Red Rose is ultimately oneof hope.

    The assassination of JFKmarked the end of the age of in-nocence, Mackey said. Therewas Camelot, and then it wasover. This event began a tumul-tuous decade. Martin LutherKing was killed. Medgar Everswas killed. Bobby Kennedy waskilled. All of our illusions aboutwhat could and what would not

    happen in this country were shat-tered. But the piece is ultimatelyuplifting. By the end, I think itpulls itself together. Again usingJackie as my governingmetaphor, it goes through thisperformance of a dignified ritual,and what I imagine must havebeen a falling apart, and thencomes out the other side strong,and trying to see the best in life.

    Thanksgiving Day race, benefit, food drive nearBy KATIE MORGANThe Sun

    More than 1,000 runners willget into the giving spirit duringthe Trinity Turkey Trot inPrinceton on Nov. 28.

    The event, hosted by TrinityEpiscopal Church and now in itssixth year, is a Thanksgiving-

    themed 5K race, a charity benefitand a food drive all in one event.

    Proceeds from registration feesand monetary donations fromrunners and supporters will ben-efit local nonprofits The CrisisMinistry of Mercer County, Ur-banPromise Trenton, HousingInitiatives of Princeton and theTrenton Childrens Chorus.

    The proceeds will be split even-ly among the four organizations.

    Race organizer Richard Ryansaid the Turkey Trot has grownevery year, and he expects thisyear to be the biggest race yet.

    Last year we raised a record-breaking $25,300 and introducedseveral improvements, Ryansaid. The enhancements have

    made the event even more enjoy-able.

    Some of the added features ofthe race are early packet pick-up,and Bib-tag timing. The B-tag isa sticker on a runners numberbib that contains a small antennathat communicates with timingmats along the course to officiallyrecord race time.

    The race is a sanctioned USATrack and Field event, and is partof the USATF New BalanceGrand Prix.

    The certified course begins andends at Trinity Episcopal Churchon Mercer Street, with a looparound College Road and idyllicEinstein Drive.

    The race will be a beautiful

    jog through Princeton on the bor-der of the campus, Ryan said.

    The race is sponsored by anumber of local businesses, in-cluding GeoPeak Energy, RBCWealth Management and BaiBrands. Bai, a Princeton-foundedbeverage company, will give awaydrinks to runners on Nov. 28.There will also be water, bagels

    and bananas available to runners.In 2012, a successful non-per-

    ishable food drive was added tothe event. All food donations willgo to the Crisis Ministry foodpantry.

    Ryan said the organizationsthat benefit from the race do ex-cellent work for people in needin Mercer County.

    The Crisis Ministry of MercerCounty provides food to morethan 1,300 Trenton householdsand works toward homelessness

    prevention by providing emer-gency financial assistance forback rent, security deposits andutilities.

    UrbanPromise Trenton is fo-cused on providing inner-city

    children with an alternative todrugs, gangs and substandard ed-ucation by hosting summercamps and afterschool programs.

    Housing Initiatives of Prince-ton provides transitional housingto low-income working individu-als in the Princeton communitywho are facing homelessness. Theorganization encourages self-suf-

    ficiency through educational andcounseling programs.

    The Trenton Childrens Cho-rus is an afterschool choral musiceducation program for childrenin kindergarten through 12thgrade.

    The program is designed to ex-pand childrens social and cultur-al horizons, and also provides tu-toring, financial support to musiclesson, and scholarships for high-er education.

    Residents double-taxeddue to software glitchMore than 100 Princeton

    residents were charged twicefor their third-quarter propertytaxes as the result of asoftware glitch on the municipalservers.

    Only residents who paid theirtaxes online were affected by thesoftware glitch.

    In some cases, large amounts ofmoney were removed from resi-dents bank accounts.

    Municipal Administrator Bob

    Bruschi said the town reachedout to the affected residents assoon as officials were aware ofthe error. The town assured theresidents they would be reim-bursed for the additional chargesto their accounts.

    Town plans to acceptrepayment for park pool

    The Princeton Council voicedits support for a plan to accept a$500,000 lump-sum payment from

    the Princeton Parks and Recre-ation Fund at the Nov. 12 councilmeeting.The group has raised themoney over the last two years forthe Community Park Pool proj-ect. Although the total is short ofthe Recreation Funds $1 milliongoal, Peter ONeill, RecreationFund chairman, said he waspleased with the amount thegroup was able to raise despite aweakened national economy andtwo major storms.

    ONeill said the RecreationFund will continue to raisemoney to repay its portionof the $6.7 million pool project,which was primarily coveredby the former Princeton town-ship.

    The group has committed toraising an additional $18,000 to-ward the total in the next severalyears.

    Princeton to pay for

    all sidewalk repairsThe Princeton Council intro-duced a measure on Nov. 12 thatwould change the towns policyon funding sidewalk repair.

    While the former Princeton

    borough covered the costs of re-pairing the sidewalk in front ofresidents homes, the formertownship required homeownersto hire a contractor and pay forrepairs out-of-pocket.

    In an effort to harmonize poli-cy in the consolidated municipali-ty, the Council introduced thenew ordinance, which wouldcommit the town to paying for allrepairs.

    Mayor Liz Lempert supportedthe measure, and said she felt itwas an important policy to enact.

    I believe its important to have

    a commitment to safe sidewalks,Lempert said. We want to be awalkable community.

    Municipal Administrator BobBruschi said sidewalk repairstypically consist of removing aslab of the sidewalk, shavingdown any tree roots that havegrown underneath the concrete,and relaying the slab. The formerborough spent approximately$30,000 on sidewalk repairs annu-ally.

    Bruschi said that if the ordi-

    nance passes, an annual sumwould be appropriated for side-walk repair in the consolidatedtown.

    Its not necessarily the cost oftaking it on so much as comingup with a reasonable schedule inwhich to make the repairs, Br-uschi said. We would have to bereasonable in our appropriationsto try to take on whatever thebacklog is.

    Residents group Walkable

    Princeton supported the measurein a post on its website.This decision is a step in the

    right direction for encouragingwalking in Princeton, the groupwrote. Good news for walkers,and everyone who uses our side-walks.

    Palmer Square companycharged in tax scam

    Chimento Construction, theParsippany-based company that

    helped build Princetons PalmerSquare, was charged in federalcourt on Nov. 20 in a multi-milliondollar tax and payroll fraudscheme.

    Frank Chimento Jr. was

    charged with evading personalincome taxes in excess of $1 mil-lion, failing to collect federal andstate payroll taxes, and falsifyingreports on union benefit contri-butions.

    In addition, three of Chimen-tos employees were charged withfiling false income tax returnsand bankruptcy fraud.

    According to filings by federalprosecutors, the constructioncompany operated a cash payrollfor a large portion of all wagespaid from 2006 to 2011. The com-pany worked primary on the

    Palmer Square project from 2008to 2011.

    During that span, prosecutorssaid no federal payroll taxes, stateunemployment or disability taxeswere withheld from employeewages.

    U.S. Magistrate Judge James B.Clark III is hearing the case inNewark federal court.

    The holiday season has arrived.

    And that means that many

    good-hearted people and organ-

    izations will be gathering food, cloth-

    ing, toys, money and other items for

    those less fortunate.

    At The Sun, we want to help make

    your event as successful as possible.

    But to do that, we need your help.

    Many retailers count on Black Fri-

    day to help put their business in the

    black for the year. If holiday sales are

    strong, they have a good overall year. If

    sales are soft, they struggle to get by.

    The same theory can hold true for

    nonprofits and other groups that de-

    pend on the publics generosity during

    the holiday season to see them through

    the rest of the year. People, naturally,

    are more giving during this time of theyear. So, in the coming weeks, youll

    see bell-ringers, donation drives and a

    lot of other efforts to help those in

    need.

    We salute everyone who holds a

    drive to help those in need. But we also

    want to help make those efforts as

    grand and successful as possible.

    To do that, we need to know about

    your event well in advance (at least two

    weeks is best). We need to know what

    types of items you are trying to collect,

    who will benefit from the drive, and,

    most importantly, how people can get

    involved to help you.

    Email is the best way to send us this

    information, and youll find our news

    email address throughout this paper.

    Then, after we get your information,

    well take it from there. Well get it into

    the paper and let everyone in town

    know what it is you are trying to ac-

    complish and how they can be a part of

    it.

    Many families are still struggling

    with the economy. There always are

    people in need.

    Let us help you to help them. Send

    us your event information and lets

    make this a big donation year.

    Holiday helpersIts the season to help others; let us know about your fundraiser or drive

    The need is there

    From devastating storms to an economythat still isnt humming along, the need fordonations this holiday period is strong.Tell us about your fundraising effort ordonation drive, and well tell everyoneelse.

    Library invites children to read with dogsBy KATIE MORGAN

    The Sun

    At the Princeton Public Library, the

    Lab in Reading Lab is short for both labo-ratory and Labrador.Emma, an old English Black Lab, and

    Sonny, a Yellow Lab, each visit the libraryonce a week, where they help children whoare learning to read develop confidence intheir reading skills.

    Weve been using therapy dogs in the li-brary for a long time, Tim Quinn, librarycommunications director, said. There arekids who are reluctant readers who need alittle support as theyre learning to read.What weve found is that if kids read to thedog, theyre a lot more comfortable than

    when they are in front of peers, or even infront of their parents. Emma and Sonnyhelp to create an environment where kidsare really comfortable reading aloud.

    Youth Services Librarian Hanna Leeruns the program, which is held in the li-

    brarys third-floor story room.Weve been doing this for several

    years, Lee said. We have kids who are inmiddle school now who learned to read

    with Emma. We were looking to refresh theprogram because Emma is definitely get-ting on in years, so last month we broughtin Sonny as a way to reach more kids andnew kids.

    Lee said the Reading Lab program ishelpful for readers of all ages and skill lev-els.

    We open the program to emergent read-ers, kids who want to be read to, and fluentreaders, Lee said. The idea is to reallyhave fun. We have kids as young as 2 or 3who are not yet readers but are developingearly literacy skills. We also have kids in

    kindergarten through second grade whoare practicing reading aloud, and someolder kids who come and help smaller chil-dren read.

    Having Sonny or Emma in the roomhelps children to relax, an important aspect

    of learning to read aloud, Lee said.The philosophy behind the program is

    that when kids are learning to read, whattheyre really building is confidence, Lee

    said. The nice thing about a dog is thattheyre completely supportive and encour-aging. They dont judge at all. I think par-ents a lot of times are trying to help theirkids, or the kid looks to the parent to soundout a word for them. The benefit with a dogis that theyre not trying to help, or tryingto correct. Theyre just great listeners.

    Lee said younger children who have notyet learned to read enjoy sitting and pettingSonny and Emma while the dogs are beingread to.

    The dog just being there is a great moti-vator for the kids, Lee said. Even if they

    arent reading just yet, it makes them asso-ciate reading with something really fun.

    Reading Lab sessions are held everyMonday and Wednesday from 4-5 p.m. Moreinformation is available on the libraryswebsite at www.princetonlibrary.org.

    vaccine are required for maxi-mum protection.

    Mbugua said the universitywould cover the costs of the vac-cine, which will be administeredby Maxim Health Systems, whichruns the campus annual flu vac-cine clinic.

    The CDC had to submit an ap-plication to the Federal Drug Ad-ministration to import the vac-cine for limited use under the in-

    vestigational new drug program.According to a release from No-vartis, Bexsero went through ex-tensive trials before gaining ap-proval for use in Australia andthe European Union.

    Data from clinical trials thatinvolved more than 8,000 infants,children, adolescents and adultsshow that Bexsero can help pro-tect vulnerable age groups fromthis devastating disease, the

    statement read.When the vaccine was ap-

    proved in the European Union inJanuary, the European Medicines

    Agency issued a statement outlin-ing the potential side effects ofthe drug.

    The most common side effectswith Bexsero in adolescents andadults are headache, nausea andmalaise, myalgia (muscle pain)and arthralgia (joint pain), aswell as pain, swelling, hardnessand redness at the injection site,the agency reported.

    Meningococcal disease is a se-vere infection that can affect the

    blood or the brain and spinalcord. Bacteria cause the disease,and left untreated it can progressrapidly, leading to shock, death,hearing loss, brain damage andlimb amputations.

    Councilwoman HeatherHoward, the Princeton Councilsliaison to the Board of Health anda Princeton University employee,said the board has been workingin conjunction with the universi-

    tys health department, the stateDepartment of Health and theCDC to prevent the spread of thedisease in the surrounding com-

    munity.Although no members of the

    broader Princeton communityhave been diagnosed, its still re-ally important to recommend thatpeople protect themselves,Howard said. Were remindingpeople about personal hygieneand also the signs and symptomsof the disease.

    The town, university and statehave provided online resourcesoutlining the early symptoms of

    the disease and how it spreads.Howard encouraged all Prince-ton community members to visitthe towns website, where thereare links to state DOH frequentlyasked questions about the dis-ease.

    The university also has a web-site with general meningitis in-formation atweb.princeton.edu/sites/emer-gency/meningitis.html.
