The '''New Jersey State Police''' is the [[state police]] force for the state of [[New Jersey]]. As with the [[New York State Police]], the primary reason for the creation of the New Jersey State Police was for the protection of rural areas that had never had law enforcement, beyond a local sheriff, who was often not able to provide suitable [[police]] services. Legislation for its creation was first introduced in 1914, but it would not be until [[March 29]] [[1921]], with the passing of the State Police Bill, that the desire for a professional statewide police force would be realized.

'''Ville Hermanni Valo''' ({{Audio|Fi-Ville_Valo.ogg|pronunciation}}) (born [[November 22]], [[1976]]) is the [[vocalist]], [[songwriter]] and frontman of the [[Finland|Finnish]] [[Love Metal]] band [[HIM (band)|HIM]]. They have released five full length albums, and as of [[2006]], they are the first and only Finnish rock band to sell Gold in the [[United States]].

==Early life==

Valo was born to a [[Finland|Finnish]] father named Kari and a mother of [[Hungarian people|Hungarian]] descent named Anita in a small suburb of Helsinki called [[Vallila]]. As a child, Ville was influenced by his music-loving parents, who exposed him to the songs of popular Finnish performers such as [[Tapio Rautavaara]] and [[Rauli Badding Somerjoki]], while an older cousin introduced him to the heavier sounds of bands like [[KISS (band)|KISS]], [[Black Sabbath]] and [[Iron Maiden]]. Valo's first musical step was as a three year old [[bongo drum|bongo]] drummer. At age nine, Valo attended the Pop and Jazz Conservatory in [[Helsinki]], where he studied several different musical genres. His father eventually opened a [[sex shop]] where Valo often worked before launching his career in music. Valo's father's [[sex shop]] is still in business today and doing well, according to interviews with Valo. His interests gradually expanded to include [[reggae]], early [[blues]] and country-oriented material such as [[Johnny Cash]], [[Roy Orbison]] and [[Neil Young]]. From a young age, Valo's enthusiasm for music also took a more active form of expression, and he participated in a large number of different Helsinki-based bands: B.L.O.O.D. (1986-89), Eloveena Boys (1987-88), Kemoterapia (1989-97) and numerous other, more obscure projects.

==HistorySide Projects==

Apart from working with HIM, and side-project [[Daniel Lioneye]], Valo has kept busy in the music world, collaborating with many artists over the years. He contributed guest vocals for The 69 Eyes, on [[Apocalyptica]]'s album ''[[Apocalyptica (album)|Apocalyptica]]'' for the song "Bittersweet" (with [[The Rasmus]]' singer [[Lauri Ylönen]]), on [[The Bloodhound Gang]]'s ''[[Hefty Fine]]'' for the song "Something Diabolical", and on [[Cradle of Filth]]'s ''[[Thornography]]'' for the song "The Byronic Man". In 2007 he duetted with Polish German actress [[Natalia Avelon]] for a cover of [[Nancy Sinatra]] and [[Lee Hazlewood]]'s song "Summer Wine", part of the ''[[Das Wilde Leben]]'' soundtrack. A video featuring both was recorded as well.

Senator Clarence I. Case was the driving force behind the 1921 legislation; however, the person with the most impact on the organization was its first Superintendent [[Herbert Norman Schwarzkopf]]. Schwarzkopf was a graduate of [[West Point]] and this training and his time in the military heavily influenced how he organized and trained his first group of troopers. The first State Police class reported for training on [[September 1]] [[1921]] and consisted of 116 men out of an applicant group of 1,600. Training took place in [[Sea Girt, New Jersey]] on the same grounds as the current [http://www.njsp.org/recruit/academy.html New Jersey State Police Academy]. Out of the 116 men who started training only 81 officers and troopers completed the three-month training program. According to the [http://www.njsp.org/about/20s.html New Jersey State Police Website], "On [[December 1]] [[1921]], the new troopers were administered the oath of office and on [[December 5]] [[1921]], in a blinding snowstorm, started out on horseback and motorcycle to their posts throughout the state." An important part of the ethos and esprit de corps of the State Police is vested in such things as [http://www.njsp.org/about/genorder_1.html General Order #1] and the importance of an academy class number as a source of pride.

=="Duty, Honor, Fidelity"==

{{DEFAULTSORT:Valo, Ville}}

Duty, Honor, Fidelity, the motto of the New Jersey State Police was adapted from the West Point motto Duty, Honor, Country. The triangular State Police logo and hat badge represents this motto. The badge has stars in each of its three corners and was created by New York jeweler Julius George Schwarzkopf, the father of founder [[Herbert Norman Schwarzkopf]]. The NJSP logo includes the year 1921, date of founding, in place of a badge number.
