Rescuer remembered as best friend, loving son, husband, father
Hurricane Irene left a path of destruction and flooding throughout the area, but her wrath was most felt in the Princeton and East Windsor communities that lost one of their own in a tragic accident the night of the storm.

Environmental group maintains area hiking trails
Walking along a stretch of trails at the John Witherspoon Woods, the six of us come along a path that is lined by logs that used to be trees rooted in the forest bordering the trail. It’s a late autumn day, sunny and warm, but most of the ground is muddy from rain that fell earlier in the week.

Hillsborough resident has community seeing green
Hillsborough’s Thuy Anh Le buzzes at the center of a network of people and activities intent on making the world a greener place.
She’s “hands on” when she needs to be, but mostly she masterfully weaves the web, putting people together with projects – across municipal lines wherever possible.

Longtime firefighter flies hot-air balloons and jumps out of airplanes
Tony DiCocco is such a calm, easy-going man that it’s somehow surprising that he’s done so much and keeps on doing it. He’s been a volunteer firefighter with the Pennington Fire Co. for 35 years. Like his retired father, also named Tony, he’s been a builder all his life, having constructed hundreds of homes, additions and other structures all over the greater Hopewell Valley area.

Group works to make history in Princeton Township & Borough
The 10 community volunteers of the Joint Shared Services Consolidation Commission were assisted by Joseph Stefko,(far left) director of public finance at the Center for Government Research,
a consultant hired by both municipalities to guide the process and Eugene McCarthy (far right) of the Division of Community Affairs.
In one historic night, the voters of Princeton Borough and Princeton Township decided to consolidate and merge their two communities into one called – you guessed it – Princeton.
A group of individuals called the Joint Shared Services Consolidation Commission spearheaded the project of looking into whether or not consolidation was the best choice and what the community’s options were. The effort was a monumental one with hours upon hours of work by a group of 10 volunteers who attended countless meetings, did endless research, talked to thousands and studied the options available so voters could make a well-informed choice.
PM Magazine asked each volunteer how and why they got involved and how they feel about the outcome.

Food trends move out as the old year passes
Hey all you trendy foods out there – don’t let the door hit you in the pan on the way out! While our love affair with some foods never really ends (family favorites and comfort foods, for instance), the popularity of other foods can rise and fall faster than the fortunes of the latest celebrity chefs.
The list of culinary trends below, culled from various sources and my own observation, is highly arbitrary, and exceptions abound, so ultimately you should just eat what you love and love what you eat!
A collage of miracles in 2011

O.K. I didn’t make the pages of People Magazine this year. Nor did I claim a Pulitzer Prize.
No talk show begged for an appearance.
The ladies on “The View” didn’t bring up my name in the “Hot Topics” segment.
But as 2011 retreats, it still leaves this very ordinary woman with some quite extraordinary memories.
Despite these next months of short days, chilly winds and odious thoughts of where the snow shovel is, I am warmed by the sweet, small blessings of the year that is slipping away.
Here then, a collage of miracles in the form of 2011 memories:
