The West Windsor Sun
re you in the Guinness
Book of World Records?
Would you like to be?
The West Windsor-
Plainsboro school district is offer-
ing the perfect chance to get in on
a record-breaking event.
The district, said Community
Middle School math teacher Craig
Frame, hopes to break the record
for the most people solving the
Rubiks Cube in one place at one
time.
The idea, Frame said, came
from one of his students, Jakob
Degen.
Last fall, Jakobs father, Hel-
mut, came to Frame with a sug-
gestion.
He said, My son has this
idea, Frame recalled.
The idea was to teach WW-P
students and residents how to
solve the Rubiks cube, and then
get them together in one place at
one time to break the world
record, which was set in London
by 300 people solving the puzzle at
one time.
Ironically, when Frame first got
involved with the idea last year, he
said he had never actually solved
one of the puzzles before.
I never did a Rubiks Cube in
my life, Frame said.
With practice, he soon learned
and began teaching others.
I just fell in love with the
whole process, Frame said.
As a math teacher, Frame be-
lieves the process of learning how
to solve the puzzle teaches kids
important concepts, regardless of
whether they realize it .
Its a good challenge, Frame
said. It helps kids think visually.
Learning a technique for solv-
ing the cube is actually not that
difficult, Frame said, and once
youve learned the trick, you dont
have to be a math genius to be able
to complete a cube in a few min-
utes.
The beginners method, Frame
said, involves looking for patterns
and working on the corners.
I think everyone can do this,
he said.
However, Frame admitted
learning to solve a Rubiks Cube
does take practice, and it helps to

West Windsor Librarys
Spring Playfest is about kids
getting to dabble in acting, but its
also about kids of different ages,
from different schools, and with
different levels of acting experi-
ence, getting together to have fun.
Were like one big happy,
crazy family, said Megan Man-
tha, a 12-year-old who participat-
ed in last falls version of playfest
at the library.
Mantha is homeschooled, so
playfest allows her to the opportu-
nity to act and to meet other kids.
I made some really great
friends, Mantha said. Im really
enjoying the acting and being
with friends.
Mantha said she finds it fun to
take on someone elses personali-
ty.
I like the fact that I can be-
come a different person, she
said.
Mantha said she also has a ten-
dency to create scenes in her head
and then act them out. Manthas
experience with playfest definite-
ly seems to have hooked her on
acting.
Im going to school next year,
Mantha said. That is, school with
other kids, where she definitely
plans to audition for school plays.
Mantha plays the character of
Emmy in the short play Doll-
house Blues, in which a lonely
little girl named Tracy shrinks
four kids to doll-size, trapping
them in her dollhouse. The char-
acter of Emmy is slightly bossy,
slightly laid-back and slightly ob-
sessed with clothes, Mantha
said. Shes a lot like me she
likes to be in charge. Emmys
weakness for clothes and her sar-
casm also match Manthas own
personality, she said.
In the play Phoebe Elias, 9,
plays Tracy, and Sanjana Inam-
dar, 13, plays Tracys mother. Both
already have experience in the
theater.
Ive done a lot of musicals,
Inamdar said.
Elias as well, although only 9,
said she has been in plenty of
other plays, including The Wiz-
ard of Oz this spring at the
Kelsey Theater, in which she
played a munchkin.
Dollhouse Blues, along with
the three other plays to be per-
formed May 18-20, was written by
West Windsor reference librarian
Michael Kerr specifically for this
springs performance.
I just like doing plays, Kerr
said.
Writing the plays himself, Kerr
said, is convenient because it al-
lows him to write for specific age
groups and to include more parts
for girls than boys (girls always
outnumber boys in auditions,
Kerr said). It also means the plays
can be light on props and easily
performed in the space provided
by the library.
The playfest began in 2005,
Kerr said, and for the last two
years, he said, has taken place

West Windsor 10-year-old wins contest
Sharim VSharot will perform
music composed by 10-year-old
West Windsor resident Louis
Josephson as part of the choirs
Twelfth Anniversary Concert,
Jerusalem in Song on May 6 at 3
p.m. at Adath Israel Congregation
in Lawrenceville, 1958
Lawrenceville Road.
To instill enthusiasm for Jew-
ish music in the younger genera-
tion, the choir hosts an annual
song-writing contest. The awards
for the Sixth Young Peoples Jew-
ish Song-Writing Contest, begun
in 2007, are Louis Josephson, stu-
dent at Village Elementary in
Princeton Junction, and, 15-year-
old Laura Fishman of Yardley,
Pa.
The Jerusalem concert will
showcase the rich musical her-
itage of songs about Jerusalem,
the spiritual focus of the Jewish
people for the past 3,000 years.
Jerusalem has inspired gen-
erations to feelings ranging from
reverence to joy, longing to re-
demption, and always hopes for
peace.
Tickets for the May 6 concert
are $15 in advance and $20 at the
door, $10 for senior citizens and
students 13 and younger. For con-
cert ticket reservations, journal

Special to The Sun
Louis Josephson won a recent
song-writing contest.
have someone else show it to you.
For these reasons, WW-P High
School North hosts a Rubiks
Cube practice session every
Thursday at 6 p.m., which is open
to anyone who wants to learn
how to solve a Rubiks Cube.
At the sessions, Frame passes
out packets of instructions, with
pictures for visual aid, which lay
out the basic method for solving a
Rubiks Cube.
Jakob put the booklets togeth-
er, Frame said, as part of a school
project.
Its his mission to teach kids
how to solve the Rubiks Cube,
Frame said.
Most of the kids at the session
are in middle school, and many
attend the session to help teach
others how to solve the cube or to
refine their own abilities.
A lot of people want to be able
to solve the Rubiks Cube faster,
Frame said.
Many of the kids, he said,
when they are not teaching any-
one else how to solve the cube,
spend their time poring over dia-
grams to learn faster techniques.
Because of after school activi-
ties like sports, the practice ses-
sion at the high school doesnt at-
tract many older students, but
Frame said high school students
find other times to practice, and
many students are learning on
their own in preparation for the
event.
In February, Siemens agreed to
sponsor the event, which was an
important step, Frame said, as
there are costs associated with
breaking a record, and he didnt
want participants to have to pay a
fee to be involved.
To officially break the world
record, Frame said, a representa-
tive of the Guinness Book of
World Records would need to at-
tend the event, which carries a
cost.
What are the districts chances
of breaking the record?
Well, Frame said, unfortunate-
ly a new record was set in Africa
recently by a group of 711 people.
Thats more than double the
old record, but Frame is still de-
termined the event go forward,
and emphasized its not just about
the record.
Its something the kids get ex-
cited about and its math, Frame
said.
And kids, amazingly enough,
do get very excited about Rubiks
Cube.
During a recent practice ses-
sion at High School North, most
of the kids attending were com-
pletely absorbed in learning to
solve the cube, teaching others,
and practicing to beat their own
best times and those of friends.
Rebecca Yang said she already
knows how to solve the cube, but
likes to come to the sessions to
practice.
The 12-year-old said she was in-
spired to learn by her friends,
who would solve Rubiks Cubes
on the school bus.
Yang said she doesnt think
shes so good at teaching other
people how to solve the cube, but
today, she is making an exception.
Im trying to teach my mom,
she said.
Uday Shankar said he learned
how to solve the cube during a
Rubiks cube craze in the fourth-
grade. At practice sessions he
goes from table to table helping
kids solve the cube, and when hes
not teaching, hes learning faster
solving methods.
The record for solving the cube
is currently about six seconds,
but WW-P students have come
pretty close.
Theres a kid in my school
whose record is nine seconds,
Shankar said.
The event is currently sched-
uled to take place on May 19 at 4
p.m. on the High School North
football field.

letters to the editor
in our opinion
T
heres going to be a lot of blus-
ter, posturing and campaigning
done over the next seven
months as President Obama and Mitt
Romney vie for votes.
But, honestly, barring any big news,
the campaign will come down to tradi-
tional battleground states.
New Jersey, unless Gov. Christie is
on the GOP ticket, likely will break for
the president. Hence, dont expect a lot
of campaign stops from either camp
here.
No, the two candidates likely will
spend a lot of time in Florida and
Ohio. Closer to home, maybe we see
the candidates in Pennsylvania, if the
economy is weak and Romney feels
like he has a shot at capturing those
electoral votes.
Still, its good to have a contest that
is at least competitive.
We remember 1984. Thats the year
Ronald Reagan won every state except
Walter Mondales Minnesota.
And 1972, when Richard Nixon won
everything except Washington, D.C.,
and Massachusetts.
Were glad this isnt 1984 or 1972.
The economy might be moving in the
right direction, but its not moving
very quickly.
And there are issues such as health
care that also will divide the elec-
torate. This year, there is no lock on
who will be elected come November.
Which brings us back to the all-or-
nothing electoral college.
Chances are good that, if youre a
Democrat in Mississippi or a Republi-
can in New York, your votes, essential-
ly, will not count.
By all means, people should vote. We
also remember the 2000 presidential
election, Florida and hanging chad.
Indeed a few votes could make a big
difference this year.
But those votes are centralized in a
few, key battleground states.
Thats what the electoral college
gives us. Voters will go to the polls,
but, unlike every other election, some
votes wont matter.
Stage is set for showdown
For all of the talk, presidential race comes down to a few states
Maps dont lie
Will your presidential vote really mat-
ter this year? Maybe, but it appears
now that the election will hinge on a
few key states.

Council meeting a
disappointment, says writer
West Windsors council meeting on
April 16 was a disappointment to most
everyone in attendance. It could have been
different. But unfortunately for the folks
who pay the rent, it wasnt. Instead it was a
circus. And it was a serious setback for de-
cency and openness in our local govern-
ment.
You can watch it for yourselves and
draw your own conclusions.
The meeting is being rebroadcast on
Comcast and Verizon FIOS.
However, if you are too busy to tune in,
Ill offer you a brief summary of what you
would have seen:
1. The council had an opportunity to
reduce local taxes without having to ask
for a cut in community services or a reduc-
tion in administrative salaries or township
benefits. In fact, it didnt even have to re-
quest town spend a dime less than what
was spent this year.
2. But Mr. Khanna, Mr. Borek and Ms.
Samonte wouldnt vote for a budget that
would have saved us tax dollars. Instead,
they voted to spend more of your
money and mine, even when it wasnt
needed.
3. These folks lost sight of the fact that
you and I pay the bills. We write those
quarterly property-tax checks. And we
have been asking for relief, real relief. But
they ignored us.
Two other council members, Bryan
Maher and Linda Geevers, tried to act on
our behalf but they were outvoted.
Maher and Geevers proposed keeping the
tax rate flat. But they were ignored.
Maher is the most financially astute
member of council and he did all the leg-
work for his colleagues. He showed that the
mayors proposal had overstated budgeted
expenditures and understated expected
revenues. But his effort was to no avail.
Khanna, Borek and Samonte disappoint-
ed all of us and they were aided by a town-
ship attorney who made a mockery of
Roberts Rules of Order. This township at-
torney forgot his role and opted instead to
promote a partisan stand. Instead we
should be paying for and receiving
thoughtful, reasoned advice.
West Windsor deserves better represen-
tation and its time we demanded more
from our elected officials. Mayor Hsueh
pulls the strings as chairman of the West
Windsor Democratic Committee. Not sur-
prisingly, the council members who voted
for his budget are all active members of his
political organization.
Nonpartisanship in West Windsor has
been cast to the wind.
Political self-dealing is now the order of
the day.
Marshall Lerner
around Halloween. This year is
the first time performances have
been held in spring.
Marisa Carroll is another bud-
ding actress who got involved
with the librarys plays last fall.
Carroll is outgoing and preco-
cious and said she likes the way
plays let her explore different
roles.
I like being in plays because
usually, you can just do one thing,
but in plays, you get to do more
than one thing, Carroll said.
This year Kerr sent Carroll
scripts for the plays in her age
group, and, determined to get the
part of Cindy in My Secret Ad-
mirer, Carroll practiced the part
in her spare time at school.
I made this boy at my
table practice with me, Carroll
said.
In My Secret Admirer, writ-
ten for kids around the ages of 9
and 10, Cindy receives a note from
a secret admirer, and is deter-
mined to discover who wrote it,
believing that she is getting atten-
tion from Tom, who is one of the
popular boys.
Tom is played by 10-year-old
Matthew Rossi, who said he has
been taking acting classes at Mer-
cer County Community Colleges
Kelsey Theater.
I think acting is fun because
in a play anything can happen,
he said.
Sophia Lennox, who plays
Sam, Cindys sister, said she likes
how acting lets her meet people.
You get to work with friends
and new people, she said.
For Josh Fontak, who plays the
not-so-popular Alex, friends were
also what got him into acting.
My friends were in the Hal-
loween play, he said.
One of the strongest points of
My Secret Admirer is its rele-
vance to kids problems, as it
touches on popularity and friend-
ship. Carroll pointed out that
while she doesnt exactly relate to
her character, who is very shy, she
does relate to the plays subject
matter.
At my school, kids talk about
being popular, Carroll said.
Both plays are also very funny,
especially Dollhouse Blues,
which incorporates plenty of the
snappy sarcasm every teenager
loves using. While pondering
their fate in the dollhouse, one
kid points out that since their dis-
appearance, there are surely peo-
ple out looking for them.
Her friend is not so optimistic,
quipping, Yeah, I bet the police
are searching every dollhouse in
town.
The plays will be performed on
May 18 at 8 p.m., May 19 at 3 p.m.
and 8 p.m., and May 20 at 8 p.m. in
meeting room 2 of the West Wind-
sor Library. For more informa-
