APRIL 10-16, 2013 –THE MONTGOMERY SUN 3

BY HEATHER FIOREThe Montgomery Sun

In an effort to save residentsmoney on their energy bills,Montgomery Township adoptedan ordinance establishing a gov-ernment energy aggregation pro-gram, known as MontgomeryCommunity Energy Aggregation.

At its meeting on April 4, thetownship committee hired theHighland Park-based energy andpublic utility firm, Gabel Associ-ates, to solicit bids from multipleenergy consumers in an attempt

to secure lower power supplyprices than what the currentproviders are offering.

If Gabel Associates finds a

lower price that is worth pursu-ing through its online biddingprocess (e-bids), the only changewould be the residents’ supplier.PSE&G, or whichever companyservices residents in the town-ship, will stay as their provider – only the supplier will change toGabel Associates.

All residents are automaticallyentered into the MCEA if theyhaven’t already acquired a third-party for supplying their energy.However, any resident has the op-tion to “opt-out” at any time – be-fore or after the program is imple-

mented – at no cost.It’s a very easy process to opt-

out and there are no penaltycharges or backdoor fees, Mayor

Ed Trzaska said.To opt-out, residents can either

call the township offices, sign themailed letter that comes prior tothe implementation of the MCEAor call Gabel Associates at anytime.

A handful of residents was un-happy with this aspect of theMCEA, stating how it’s not rightthat Montgomery Township candecide to enter all of its residentsinto the program without theirconsent or approval.

However, by grouping thou-sands of residents in “one pack-

age” makes the township more at-tractive to bidders, said RobertChilton, energy consultant forGabel Associates.

Having been in the energy con-sulting business for more than 10years, Chilton explained that theprevious energy aggregation pro-gram that was implemented bythe state, which gave residentsthe option to opt-in instead of opt-out, “simply didn’t work in themarketplace” because thereweren’t enough residents in apool to attract bidders.

“The reality was that it had togo to an opt-out [option] or elsethe program would simply notwork,” he said.

Although the township is al-

lowing Gabel Associates to solicitbids on behalf of the township, if they don’t obtain favorable bidsthat would save residents enough

money on their energy bills, thetownship will not continue to pur-sue the MCEA, Trzaska said.

“There aren’t any hurdles, andif there were, we wouldn’t bedoing this,” he said.

If the township decides to pur-sue the MCEA after the biddingprocess is conducted by Gabel As-sociates, all residents who don’talready have a third-party energysupplier will receive a notifica-tion letter 30 days prior to the ini-tiation of the program askingwhether or not they want to opt-out.

For more detailed informationabout the MCEA, check nextweek’s edition of The Sun.

In professional sports, winning is

everything. Winning is the only

thing. Second place is first loser.

As former NFL head coach Herm

Edwards famously said in a post-game

press conference when he was with the

New York Jets: “You play to win the

game. You don’t play to just play it.

That’s the great thing about sports:

You play to win.”

Players, coaches and front office per-

sonnel are paid to produce success on

the field, and they are judged by the

level of that success.

It’s not silly, and it’s not immature.

Professional sports rally cities, rally

countries. They are a source of great

pride and passion, and fans spend

handsome sums to support their

teams.

The more successful the team, the

more passionate the fan base. There-

fore, the more successful the team, the

more money it makes.

Unfortunately, this emphasis on win-ning at all costs has seeped down to

amateur levels of sport. Collegiate

sports – especially at the highest lev-

els – have become about winning at all

costs, too, because they are big money

generators for universities. The more a

team wins, the more its players and

coaches are profiled, and the more like-

ly those players and coaches will earnbig contracts.

This was never more evident than

last week, when tapes of former Rut-

gers University basketball coach Mike

Rice surfaced, showing Rice – who was

fired last week – throwing balls at play-

ers’ heads, yelling at players and utter-

ing homophobic slurs during prac-

tices, all, apparently, because he want-

ed to win.

Debate has raged over whether colle-

giate athletes are really amateurs any-

more, or whether they should be paid

for their efforts, above and beyond

scholarship money. That debate is for a

different day.

The dangerous part of this story, is

how this culture of winning seeps its

way further down the chain to youth

sports, at high schools, travel teams or

even Little Leagues.

The lure of big money in sports is

hard to ignore even this far down the

ladder, and it’s easy to lose focus on

what sports are really about – building

leaders, fostering a sense of communi-

ty and teamwork, and having fun.

So coaches, ADs, administrators and

players, never forget that winning isn’t

everything, winning isn’t the only

thing, and second place isn’t first loser.

in our opinion

Win or die? Let’s be real Youth coaches, parents and kids: Don’t lose focus on what sports are all about

Just win, baby!

With our society focused on winningat all costs, how do we send the propermessage to our kids involved in youthsports? Tell us your thoughts on thetopic.

The Princeton Symphony Orchestra ispleased to announce its Benefit Gala, Bour-bon Street, to be held on Saturday, April 13at The Bedens Brook Club in Skillman.

To compose “The Hugo MovieCompanion,” Selznick inter-viewed 40 people who worked onthe movie, from director MartinScorsese to the dog trainer.

“I looked at what their child-hoods were like, what they did onthe movie and how they all cametogether to film one scene, as anexample of the collaborativeprocess of making a movie,” hesaid.

Although Selznick didn’t workdirectly with Scorsese, the direc-tor and his team used Selznick’sbook “like the Bible, constantlyreferring to it and using it tosolve problems as they arose onset.”

“Everyone had a copy withthem, and the movie is so faithfulto the book that I feel like theyclosely collaborated with me

through the book itself,” he said.Since his book was essentially

used as a second script, Selznickdetailed how exciting it was to see

it come to life.“It was thrilling to see my story

reinterpreted and filmed throughScorsese's brilliant eye,” he said.“He used my drawings as story-boards and encouraged his teamto keep going back to my book. Insome cases, he even had the edi-tor, Thelma Schoonmaker, editthe movie to simulate some of theillustrated page turns in the book.The book is a celebration of movies, but I never could have

imagined it would become amovie itself, a part of cinema his-tory because of Scorsese's vi-sion.”

The movie Hugo was based off Selznick’s first book, “The Inven-tion of Hugo Cabret,” which wasreleased in 2011.

“‘The Invention of HugoCabret’ was inspired by my loveof old movies and research that I

did about automatons, or wind upmechanical figures,” he said.

Aside from “The Hugo MovieCompanion,” Selznick will also

be discussing several of his booksduring his visit to VES, includinghis first book, “The HoudiniBox,” and a popular book that heillustrated for the author AndrewClements called “Frindle.”

“I’m looking forward to myvisit to VES and to seeing mynephew there,” he said.

“He is a great artist and re-minds me a lot of myself when Iwas a kid because I drew all thetime, just like him.”

Although Selznick can’t dis-close information about the bookhe’s currently working on, it willinclude words and pictures like“The Invention of Hugo Cabret”and another one of his books,“Wonderstruck,” he said.

“The Hugo Movie Companion”is a five-star rated book on Ama-zon.com, and is available for$13.46.
