Howell’s PARCC Numbers Show Fewer Refusals

By Charles Daye and Catherine Galioto HOWELL – Citing a strong anti-PARCC movement among parents, the superintendent said despite those sentiments, the second year of the standardized test saw fewer refusals from students to take the test.

In Howell and elsewhere last year, parents said their children would refuse to take the PARCC (short for Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers) exam, a Common Core-aligned test.

In Howell, that resulted in 488 students re-

fusing to take all or part of the PARCC in the 2014-2015, the first year of the test. However, 3,526 students participated in the PARCC Mathematics and 3,523 participated in the PARCC English-Language Arts that year.

PARCC was met with widespread refusals from students and some strong (Anti-PARCC) sentiments from parents.

Though student refusals have affected the

“No data points that we get, we disregard.

When we look at the district, they’re (the numbers) skewed right. We had less refusals this year, compared to last year,” said Superintendent Joseph Isola.

PARCC:

who refused to take it, special needs students who refused to take it and kids who are in the middle of the spectrum who refused to take it. So it’s all over the map in terms of who refused and who didn’t. At the end of the day any point of data we get we look at it and try to utilize to inform our practice.

So no, I didn’t disregard the data,” said Isola.

In 2015-2016, there were 315 students who did not participate in all or part of the PARCC, 3,244 students that did participate in PARCC Mathematics and 3,439 students that participated in the PARCC ELA. Though no test results have been disregarded, the refusals skew the overall results of the standardize testing. Isola does believe there is good information that is educationally sound that could be drawn from these assessments but it should ultimately be about improving the quality of instruction and learning.

“I think parents should advocate for what they believe is right for their kids and I believe they should have a tremendous voice in that message. Until the state and federal government get on board with that, it’s difficult, it’s putting school districts at odds with their communities, its difficult paradigm,” said Isola regarding some parents’ strong Anti-PARCC sentiments and the level of compliance at the state and federal level.

As districts across the state prepared for the transition to the PARCC test, Howell held public information sessions on it. The discussions yielded questions from concerned parents about the time and stress of the test,

in their opinion, and some asked how refusals would impact students.

At the time, Isola said “This community should know that our school district will not take punitive actions towards children whose parents have elected to refuse. While we do not promote test refusal, we certainly recognize that individual students should be placed in a nurturing and caring environment at all times.”

The available results of the PARCC test breakdown the percent who have met or exceed standards for language arts and for mathematics, respectively.

For third grade language arts: Adelphia 70.9 percent, Aldrich 50.7 percent, Ardena 36.8 percent, Greenville 66.7 percent, Griebling 71.2 percent, Land O’Pines 47.1 percent, Newbury 54.7 percent, Ramtown 49.3 percent and Taunton 61.7 percent.

For fourth grade language arts: Adelphia 57.1 percent, Aldrich 51.2 percent, Ardena 56.9 percent, Greenville 66.7 percent, Griebling 63.6 percent, Land O’Pines 65 percent, Newbury 43.2 percent, Ramtown 60.3 percent and Taunton 56.9 percent.

For fifth grade language arts: Adelphia 69.3 percent, Aldrich 58.9 percent, Ardena 59.1 percent, Greenville 68.4 percent, Griebling 64.3 percent, Land O’Pines 75 percent, Newbury 68.5 percent, Ramtown 47.9 percent and Taunton 40.3 percent.

For grade six, language arts: North had 57.8 percent, South 63.9 percent, Memorial 55.8 percent. Grade 7: North 64.4 percent, South 57.4 percent and Memorial 65.5 percent.

Grade 8: North 50.2 percent, South 51 percent and Memorial 62.5 percent.

The math results for third grades: Adelphia 66.7 percent, Aldrich 57.3 percent, Ardena 36.8 percent, Greenville 70.9 percent, Griebling 60.6 percent, Land O’Pines 59.6 percent, Newbury 67.9 percent, Ramtown 54.7 percent and Taunton 66.7 percent.

For fourth grade math: Adelphia 46.6 percent, Aldrich 35.7 percent, Ardena 28.8 percent, Greenville 50 percent, Griebling 37.7 percent, Land O’Pines 51.3 percent, Newbury 33.4 percent, Ramtown 39.7 percent and Taunton 30.2 percent.

For fifth grade math: Adelphia 52.8 percent, Aldrich 52 percent, Ardena 36.3 percent, Greenville 46.1 percent, Griebling 35.6 percent, Land O’Pines 48 percent, Newbury 52.6 percent, Ramtown 38 percent and Taunton 25.4 percent.

For grade six, math: North had 39.9 percent, South 53.1 percent, Memorial 38.5 percent.

Grade 7: North 31.5 percent, South 34.7 percent and Memorial 44.6 percent. Grade 8: North 18.5 percent, South 28 percent and Memorial 18.8 percent.

Since then, Howell has changed the grade bands for its schools. This reconfiguration was in place for September 2015, and the schools are now: five primary schools, five elementary schools, and two middle schools.

The sister pairings are: Greenville (K-2) and Ramtown (3-5), which will then go to Middle School South; and Taunton (K-2) and Aldrich (3-5), which will go to Middle School South.

The sister pairs that will go to Middle School North: Griebling (K-2) and the current Memorial Middle School (3-5); Adelphia (K-2) and Ardena (3-5); and Land O’ Pines (K-2) and Newbury (3-5).

Kathie Lavin is seeking another term as the Farmingdale representative.

For Farmingdale’s local school district, the board has two full seats and one unexpired term on the ballot. Each are uncontested.

Carly Immen of Ruset Lane and incumbent Bonnie M. Wright of Academy Street filed to run. Gary Maser, whose term expires this year, did not file.

In the unexpired term, William “Beau” Byrtus of Main Street, filed to run. Byrtus currently holds that seat through an appointment to the board. It is a two-year unexpired term.

The filing deadline was 4 p.m. July 25 through the county clerk’s office.

The non-partisan school board races will be part of the November 8 general election day.

As of presstime, the district was also taking nominees from interested parties due to a vacancy on the board, but the notice did not say who had vacated their seat. Those interested can send their background information, personal statement and contact information to Board Secretary Ronald Sanasac, at rsanasac@ howell.k12.nj.us before the August 18 deadline.

neighborhoods, to look at Jackson as a place to be taken over, or to use limited liability companies and real estate transactions as a way to try to less than subtly force people into staying in town. We all agree that those comments are not only reprehensible but have a tinge of illegality about them,” Nixon said.

The township viewed those videos and contacted the DOJ and state Division of Civil Rights as a result, he said.

Nixon continued: “Jackson Township, having viewed those videos, have filed a formal complaint with the Department of Justice and the State Division of Civil Rights. We sent them links to the videos and expressed our comments that it is very concerning that, and our residents have been subject to this improper and extraordinarily disturbing activity.

I think we’d all agree, our residents don’t need to be ‘taken over.’ This is a town that is wonderful, it’s welcoming, it’s made up of every race, creed, ethnicity, all living very happily together in really, an amazing place. …We welcome everyone in this community. But we certainly won’t stand by, and we haven’t.”

Nixon said the formal complaint is part of a response the township is taking to these issues and other quality-of-life concerns.

The Howell Times, August 6, 2016, Page 5 “If you look at the ordinances we’ve passed that have focused on quality of life issues.

Focusing on improper uses of residences and addressing the landlord issue and limited liability companies purchasing properties using P.O. boxes, we have done our level best to address what we can address at this level of government. We had to take the next step, and that is to file this complaint with the federal government and the state government,” said the council president.

The videos are from a November 2015 Agudah Convention at Crowne Plaza in Stamford, Conn. Three speakers—Rabbi Avrohom Jaffe, Rabbi Shmuel Lefkowitz, and Rabbi Avrohom Binyomin Spira—gave a talk under the heading “Growing Pains: Responding to challenges of the explosive expansion of our communities.”

Binyomin was asked to speak in Yiddish about the “Jersey City Initiative”; however, most of the other talks were presented in English with a mix of Yiddish.

NJTVonline.org wrote back in April about Jersey City: “We have been documenting the dramatic evolution that is reshaping Jersey City — physically and culturally, mostly downtown, where condo towers are replacing empty lots. Brownstones refurbished into million dollar homes. Cafes and restaurants replacing dollar stores. But in the inner city

— in the heart of the black community — an influx of Orthodox Jews have been arriving on Martin Luther King Drive over the last several months, and their presence is being noticed.”

The comment that sparked outrage in Jackson was made by Lefkowitz, who called for young families priced out of their majority Chareidi neighborhoods and towns to look to neighboring towns for cheaper housing. Howell NJ Strong posted a page from the July 29 Lakewood Shopper that urged young families moving from basement apartments to a house that have been priced out Lakewood, to look into Brick, Howell, Toms River and Jackson.

“One of the simple answers is that people have to be a little bit of shtickle pioneer in order to go into areas that...to keep expanding the envelope within Brooklyn, within Lakewood, and the other areas,” Lefkowitz said.

The argument has come down to what exactly does “shtickle” mean? An online Jewish lexicon says it can mean “a small amount; a little” or “designation of second-class status, when applied to rabbis or other professionals.”

Hamodia, The Daily Newspaper of Torah Jewry, published an article July 28 saying Jewish leaders rebutted and denied accusations of blockbusting.

“Jackson Township’s complaint about a ‘blockbusting-style plan’ and ‘decree’ ostensibly plotted by representatives of Agudath Isra-

CASA To Host Comedy Night Fundraiser

el of America is totally groundless,” Hamodia writes that Rabbi Avi Schnall, Agudah’s New Jersey director, said. “There is no such plan, no such decree. Encouraging members of Agudath Israel’s growing constituency to consider affordable housing opportunities in new neighborhoods is simple sound advice.”

Lefkowitz weighed in as well.

“Someone, who does not speak Yiddish, misled the public. ‘Shtickle pioneer,’ in Yiddish, means that the pioneer is a small pioneer and adverse to risk. ‘Groise pioneer’ means that you are a big pioneer and ready to take big risks,” Hamodia reports Lefkowitz saying.

Hamodia also reports that “Rabbi Schnall called the idea of an investigation by authorities “a farce” and said he was certain the Justice Department will respond accordingly.

‘For the leaders of Jackson’s government bodies to make such rash claims stokes the already contentious feelings of many in the community,” said Rabbi Schnall. “Elected officials are held to a higher standard… I think the council would have a hard time taking these steps if they were directed at any other minority group.’”

Nixon said as the Council and Administration learns more, he will keep the public apprised of where things stand.

Editorial Rain Or Not, Water Conservation A Good Idea

Manchester has them: lawn-watering restrictions all summer long.

It’s a conservation measure as lawn watering reached record high use recently.

On the f lipside, the impact of overwatering lawns where heavy amounts of fertilizer or pesticides were applied can create storm water runoff pollution in our waterways.

Adding into this equation is how in 2002, New Jersey was hit by drought, with an inundation of messages and rules on water use.

This year, the word “drought” is no longer on the tip of everyone’s tongue. That, at least, is a classic Good Thing.

But the lack of a deep drought does not mean residents should feel comfortable treating water as if it springs from an endless well. It doesn’t.

Common sense and an eye for the future should prevail. Waste can only come back to bite our collective behind

in the end. Even with water levels fairly comfortable at the moment, Mother Nature can reverse course. Because of the area’s dense, active summer population and the fact that we rely heavily on rainfall to keep water levels adequate, it doesn’t take more than a short dry spell to drop water supplies back to drought levels.

The summer is not yet over. Keep that in mind when using water this summer. It’s an experience we can all share to make conservative water use habits just a bit easier to swallow. And even more important, think about the droughts of years to come. Ocean County and its population are not getting any smaller. We need all the water we can get.

For more information on the drought situation in New Jersey, if any, and any restrictions in effect, visit state.nj.us/ dep/drought/index.html or call 800-4-ITS-DRY.

Letters To The Editor More Transparency Needed In Medical Billing The Out of Network Transparency Act would help protect us from surprise medical bills. It would crack down on unfair medical billing practices that hurt consumers by charging high, unregulated prices for services outside of health insurance networks.

However, the opposition from highly paid specialists and for-profit hospital owners is threatening to stop the bill in its tracks.

Thousands of New Jerseyans get hit with shocking, unfair medical bills that they cannot afford and they have little or no leverage to negotiate with powerful and wealthy health care providers.

The provisions of A1952 that health care facilities and providers disclose their network status and the estimated costs of services to consumers, and that carriers disclose up-to-date lists of health care facilities and in-network providers. These provisions will establish improvements in transparency.

AARP supports the bill’s provisions that hold consumers harmless when they receive emergency care or have a scheduled procedure at an in-network facility, only to find out after the fact that one or more of the health professionals were out-ofnetwork. This must stop.

Consumers need fair treatment.

Tribal Socialism The writer who proposes eliminating the property tax (June 11, Letter to the Editor) by replacing it with a communal do-it-yourself system of residents contributing their labor and goods in cooperation with fellow residents is describing what has been termed “tribal socialism.”

It is a system of communal self-preservation which has had success in small rural tribal areas, sects and communes, but not in larger, complex townships, cities, counties and states. Those require equipment, services and construction too great for the simple cooperation of citizens unable or unwilling to handle them. That is the role of government and businesses able to pay for the specialized labor necessary to cope.

Paid labor, far from being the writer’s “forced socialism” (a term more accurately applied to the abovementioned self-preservation), is a facet of our capitalist economy.

health insurance, and the report documents the progress we’ve made expanding coverage across the country.

Meanwhile, premiums for employer coverage, Medicare spending and health care prices have risen at exceptionally slow rates. Our country ought to be proud of how far we’ve come and where we’re going.

The Affordable Care Act made everyone’s insurance better, not just the people who have coverage through the Marketplace or even the 20 million people who have coverage because of the law.

Today in America, there’s a father who can no longer be denied coverage because of a pre-existing condition; a mother who can no longer be charged more because she’s a women; and a child who can stay on their parent’s plan up to age 26.

Those rules benefit millions of people, and thankfully, they’re now part of the fabric of America.

There’s still more work to do as we build a health care system that works for everyone and results in better care, smarter spending, and healthier people. But our country is unequivocally on stronger footing today because of the Affordable Care Act. That’s progress to celebrate.

Mental Health Reform Needed An important start to making comprehensive mental health reform a reality in America is H.R. 2646. This legislation is a critical step forward toward treating mental illnesses like every other chronic disease.

The bill would promote early identification and intervention, fund new innovation grants and new programs for children, invest in suicide prevention, create a council that will be tasked with developing a plan to reduce incarceration, reduce homelessness for peo-

ple with mental illness, and promote integration of health and behavioral health services, among other initiatives.

The time to act is now, take the few minutes needed to call your legislator and tell them you support this bill, which will improve the lives for many who are living with mental illness and would like to see it passed before the August recess.

Congressman’s Hateful Words A few weeks ago, America watched the largest mass shooting in American history in Orlando and the target were LGBT Americans. After the shooting, our Congressman, Chris Smith, offered his prayers. What many do not realize is that our community is represented by Congressman, Chris Smith, a religious extremist that uses his position to promote hate and violence against gay Americans.

In 2015 at a human rights meeting in Africa, Smith announced that gay rights are not human rights. “I am a strong believer in traditional marriage and I do not construe homosexual rights as human rights,” Smith said.

Last year, in response to the Supreme Court decision legalizing same-sex marriage, Smith co-sponsored legislation enabling groups and individuals to deny services to NJ gay couples on the basis of their religious beliefs along with one other NJ Rep Scott Garrett. The First Amendment Defense Act that Smith sponsored would prevent federal retaliation against organizations or individuals that refuse to serve same sex couples citing their religious beliefs. Smith said, “The First Amendment Defense Act is designed to ensure that all Americans, and faith-based organizations in particular, are protected from government discrimination based on (Letters - See Page 15)

NEW J ERSEY – Department of Environmental Protection Commissioner Bob Mar tin and Board of Public Utilities (BPU) President Richard S. M roz an nou nced a new grant program that can help employers offset the installation cost for electric vehicle charging stations across the state, and a new website portal to educate the public about electric vehicles.

The goal is this new grant prog ram is to i mprove New Jersey’s air quality.

The DEP and BPU have teamed together to launch t h e g r a nt p r og r a m “ It Pays To Plug I n.” T he f i rst phase of the pro gram offers $725,000 in reimbursement grants to employers to offset some of the costs to purchase and install the stations, while also encouraging

NEW JERSEY – A round of federal funding should help the back bays of New Jersey, in areas such as Barnegat Bay where communities are threatened by repeated f loods. U.S. Senators Bob Menendez and Cory Booker highlighted $10,954,000 in funding within the FY2017 Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies Act appropriations bill, which passed the Senate recently.

“Too many New Jersey families know firsthand the painful impacts of severe flooding and the toll it takes on entire communities,” said Sen. Menendez. “Whether it be Sandy, Irene, Floyd or the seasonal Nor’easter, our state is routinely in the path of severe storms that can destroy neighborhoods and wreak havoc on people’s lives. This funding is vital to moving these communities closer to a long term flood mitigation

employees to ultimately pu r ch a s e a nd d r ive electric vehicles to work.

In turn, the use of more electric vehicles on New Jersey’s roads will reduce t he a mou nt of t ailpipe emissions that affect air quality.

The new “Drive Green New Jer sey” i n it iat ive and website provide information about the different ty pes of electric vehicles available, how to charge them, afforda bi l it y a n d i m p a c t o n air quality, as well as a variety of useful links for consumers.

“Electric vehicles can pl ay a c r it ic a l r ole i n helping to improve our a i r q u a l it y,” C om m i s sioner Martin said. “This new g rant prog ram, i n addition to the current incentives available in our state, can help improve

the affordability of this i n novat ive a nd prove n technology that benefits all New Jersey residents.”

Reimbursement grants a re of fered on a f i r stcome, first-serve basis of up to $250 for each Level 1 ch a rg i ng st at ion i nstalled, and up to $5,000 for each Level 2 charging station installed. Level 2 stations provide more mileage range for electric vehicles than Level 1 stations. Eligible employers include public, private, for-profit, nonprofit, educational and government al entities. Ow ners of parking facilities used by commuters or employees of other companies are also eligible.

“The announced joint effort to incentivize workpl a c e ele c t r ic ve h icle charging stations is yet another step in the im-

plementation of Governor Christie’s State Energy Master Plan and recognizes its stated goal of encouraging greater use of electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles by improving and expanding the infrastructure needed to support the use of alternative-fueled vehicles throughout New Jersey,” said BPU President Mroz.

“We are also happy that those who are interested in lear ning more about alter native-fueled vehicles can access the ‘Drive Green New Jersey’ website as part of the state’s efforts to fulfill the Energy Master Plan’s call for increased education of consumers regarding energy conservation, renewable energy and technology advancements that t hey ca n i mplement to save on energy expenses,

reduce energy costs for all ratepayers and contribute to a cleaner environment,” BPU President Mroz said.

The DEP worked closely with the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs to streamline the permitting process so that homeowners can easily install charging stations.

“If you can charge your electric vehicle at home and you can charge it at work, that goes a long way to relieving range anxiety, which is a wellk now n ba r r ier to t he widespread adoption of elect r ic vehicles,” said Joh n G iord a no, DEP’s Assistant Commissioner for Air Quality, Energy and Sustainability. “The state recog nizes that a key to the success of any new technology is public buy-in, and to gain that,

solution that will protect residents and property. I am pleased that these important projects were prioritized in the President’s FY17 Budget request and funded through the Energy and Water Appropriations bill.”

“For years, far too many communities across our state have been forced to endure the devastating impacts of flooding,” said Sen.

These federally funded projects make an important investment in the safety and well-being of New Jerseyans by helping to mitigate the impact of f looding and making us more resilient in the face of future storms.”

The $37.5 billion funding bill provides $6 billion for U.S. Army Corps of Engi-

neers civil works programs that fall under f lood and storm damage reduction, navigation and ecosystem restoration activities, including the following critical Army Corps projects in New Jersey: New Jersey Backbays - $575,000.

The funding will be used to study the effects of tidal flooding in the bays and estuaries along the Jersey Shore impacted by Superstorm Sandy and other major coastal storms. The shorelines of most of the backbays are low elevation, developed with residential and commercial infrastructure and subject to tidal flooding during storms and exacerbated by historic sea level rise that will only increase the magnitude and frequency of the problem.

The study will evaluate flood reduction measures in the densely populated portions of New Jersey backbays and mainland coastline

OceanFirst Foundation Awards $200,000 In Scholarships

MONMOUTH COUNTY – For 140 local college freshmen arriving on campus this fall at Brookdale Community College, Georgian Court University, Monmouth University and Ocean County College, the college tuition bill just got a little lighter thanks to OceanFirst Foundation’s Scholarship program.

In the seven years of the scholarship program, OceanFirst Foundation has awarded $1,400,000 in grants to its partners – Brookdale Community College, Georgian Court University, Monmouth University and Ocean County College.

For 2016, each college/university received a $50,000 grant to provide scholarship assistance to incoming freshman students from shore-area high schools. Scholarship recipients attending the community colleges each received $1,000 awards and the scholarship recipients attending the universities each received $2,500 awards. Selection decisions were made solely by each participating school completely independent of OceanFirst Foundation and OceanFirst Bank.

“OceanFirst Foundation remains committed to helping Jersey Shore families face the financial challenges presented by the escalating cost of higher education. This year’s Scholarship Grants are going to help cover the cost of tuition, books or other school expenses for 140 new freshman students that will arrive on campus later this month at our partner colleges and universities,” said Katherine Durante, executive director of OceanFirst Foundation.

Since its founding in 1902, OceanFirst Bank has built a solid reputation and legacy as a good neighbor and responsible corporate citizen. The bank’s strong commitment to helping families, organizations, schools and communities throughout central New Jersey meet their financial needs has spanned several generations, reaching new heights in 1996 with the creation of OceanFirst Foundation.

The foundation provides grants to organiza-

tions that meet community needs within the OceanFirst market area.

Since its inception, OceanFirst Foundation has contributed in excess of $27 million to over 600 local charities and schools in Ocean, Monmouth and Middlesex counties that meet needs such as Health and Wellness, Housing, Youth Development and Education and Improving Quality of Life.

The Monmouth County graduates receiving OceanFirst Foundation scholarships are: Colts Neck High School – Brianna Hoch.

Freehold High School (Boro) – Jacqueline DiStefano and Gabriela Morales.

Freehold Township High School – Jessica Blair, Samantha Hands and Emily Whelan.

Howell High School – Emily Barnes, Samantha Bellina, Jamie Halter, Mark Handerhan, Jessica Kelly, Jessica Konish, Jessica Lovo, Daniella Malave, Blaise Pena, Rebecca Ruimy, Anjali Singh, Heather Smith, Kirsten Sullivan, Michael Surgent and Dylan Wisniewski.

How Are You Feeling?

It’s such a simple question and yet, I bet your own opinion of how you feel matters little to your doctors. It’s quite frequent that you’re told not to worry about your health if a lab test comes back as “normal.” The assumption is made that nothing’s wrong. New research suggests that how you feel is a more reliable indicator of future illness than your labs.

Researchers from Rice University in Texas have reason to believe that how you feel holds greater value than blood tests do. I concur. If you were talking to me, I would trust what you tell me more than I do any piece of paper from a lab because of a dozen reasons.

For one, the reference ranges on labs are often bad because they were determined by a sick population. Your blood samples may not have been centrifuged long enough. Maybe it wasn’t refrigerated in transit. There are so other reasons too.

This reminds me of a one-man experiment I did recently. I wanted to see what happens when you use two different labs to measure the same thing. We tested Sam’s c4a levels, an inflammatory biomarker. Quest determined the level to be 9,725 and Labcorp said it was 319. Can you see how messed up your treatment regimen will be if you rely solely on labs?

The numbers are off by thousands!

Sometimes the biomarkers that doctors test you for are just for screening, rendering them pretty useless IMHO (in my humble opinion). For example, thyroid testing and dosage changes

are often based upon your TSH blood test, but you realize that isn’t measuring your thyroid hormone right? And “Total Cholesterol” labs are useless because they don’t tell you “particle size” or “number,” yet a bazillion statin prescriptions have been written based upon this number.

So when I read the research conducted by Dr. Kyle Murdock, Dr. Christopher Fagunde and the rest of their team, it made a ton of sense to me.

The truth is: Physicians should stop telling you everything is fine when your labs are “normal” and you are sitting there in tears trying to explain that something is wrong.

You should not be ignored if you’re not feeling any better on medication.

They should trust you. And you should trust your instinct more. This is not an excuse to go all hypochondriac on me okay? I’m just saying if you feel bad, keep digging at what the root cause is. I’m also hoping you don’t go order a cheeseburger and fries to celebrate your “normal” cholesterol.

According to Dr. Christofer Fagundes, a professor of psychology at Rice University, “When a patient says, ‘I don’t feel like my health is very good right now,’ it’s a meaningful thing with a biological basis, even if they don’t show symptoms.”

If you’d like to learn more about this, I will email you a longer version of this article, sign up for my newsletter at suzycohen.com. How happy would you be to know that “it’s not in your head” and how awesome would it be if you were taken seriously? Trust your gut feeling more.

Monmouth University Academic Building Wins Award

LONG BRANCH – Pozycki Hall, Monmouth University’s new $6.9 million state-of-the-art academic building on its Long Branch campus, was recently honored with a New Good Neighbor Award from the New Jersey Business and Industry Association (NJBIA) and New Jersey Business magazine.

NJBIA President and CEO Michele Siekerka and NJBIA Board of Trustees Chairman Matt Wright presented the award to Paul Dement, the university’s director of Government and Community Relations, at the 56th Annual New Good Neighbor Awards reception on July 15.

“We all know New Jersey’s economy is on the upswing and no competition showcases that fact more than this one recognizing the best and most exciting commercial and industrial projects in New Jersey,” Siekerka said. “The companies whose hard work and vision created these award-winning projects truly are New Good Neighbors because they invest in their communities, create jobs and provide valuable products and services.”

Poz yck i Hall is a t wo -stor y 20,000-square-foot academic facility that connects to two other campus buildings via a second-floor pedestrian bridge. The building houses eight faculty offices, a computer lab, video conference rooms with the latest technology, a student lounge and a state-of-the-art 175-seat theater that can be used for both campus and community events.

Environmentally friendly features of Pozycki Hall include an energy-efficient lighting package and high-performance glass and glazing to reduce the amount of solar heat entering the building.

The building was funded by and named after Monmouth University alumni Steven and Elaine Pozycki. Steven Pozycki is CEO of Parsippany-based SJP Properties and is also a member of the Monmouth University Board of Trustees.

The project was designed by DMR Architects, of Hasbrouck Heights, and the primary builder was Sweetwater Construction Corp., of Cranbury. Nancy Kleiberg, executive director of the Long

Branch Chamber of Commerce, nominat- ed 3,121 full-time and part-time jobs. All of the projects played an important role ed the project for the award.

Presented annually by NJBIA and New in keeping New Jersey’s economy moving Jersey Business magazine, the New Good forward,” Siekerka said.

Neighbor Awards recognize the best and most exciting renovations, expansions and new developments in the state.

Fourteen winners were chosen this year by an independent panel of judges based on economic benefit and job creation, architectural merit and community involvement.

Dear Joel

By Joel Markel

Use Alternate Means Of Travel Dear Joel, I have fi nally reached a time in my life where I can enjoy the fruits of my labor.

Both my wife and I are now reaching 70 and I have reached an age where I can start traveling. Traveling is a luxury that I deprived myself of until I felt comfortable spending the money. Here is my problem. Now that we have some extra dollars and free time, my wife will not join me in my dreams. She has been afraid of flying since we’ve met and refuses to give it a try. I assure her that it is the safest means of travel but to no avail. I want to start seeing the world.

Answer There is much in your letter to analyze.

I will start with “She has been afraid of flying since I met her.” You knew that this may have been a problem between the two of you but chose to marry her anyway. She obviously has other qualities that are appealing to you. There are courses, hypnosis and other methods of getting rid of such fears. Alan, I have no statistics but you can be certain that it works for many but not for others.

There is so much to see in our beautiful country. You can go on a bus or

t rain. There are organized tours that do a wonderf ul job of both.

Additionally, cruising, although once travel for the rich and famous only, has for decades been the best value of all in travel. There are many cruise lines that now leave from New Jersey, New York, Boston, Maryland and other nearby places. Alan, you can actually go around the world without getting on a plane.

Lastly, there are no rules that say that if you want to see India, Israel or Italy, that you can’t travel without your wife.

This feeling of it being her fault of your deprivation is simply not true. Once again, there are organized tours both for seniors and the general population.

Respectfully, stop make excuses and start packing. It isn’t your wife who is holding you back!

R.C. Shea & Assoc.

Inside The Law Understanding Consumer Fraud Act & Homeowners Improvement Act: The Consumer Fraud Act gives New Jersey one of the strongest consumer protection laws in the country. The CFA protects the general public by providing consumers with a private cause of action for violations of the Act and allowing for recovery of treble (triple) damages, attorneys’ fees and costs.

See N.J.S.A. § 56:8-19.

To violate the Act, a person must commit an “unlawful practice,” which may fall into one of three general categories: 1. affirmative acts; 2. knowing omissions; or 3. regulation violations. The third category is based on violations of regulations enacted under N.J.S.A. § 56:8-4, the Home Improvement Act. The essential purpose behind the Home Improvement Act is to eliminate sharp practices, deception, fraud, and misrepresentation of material facts by “Sellers” aka “contractors.” To this end the Act seeks to provide procedures for the regulation and content of home improvement contracts by establishing standards to facilitate enforcement of the requirements of the Act. N.J.A.C. § 13:45A16.1. The term “Seller” is defined as any person engaged in the business of making or selling home improvements, and includes corporations, partnerships, associations and any other form of business organization or entity, and its officers, representatives, agents and employees. N.J.S.A. § 56:8137. The regulations broadly define “home improvement” to cover nearly every type of residential improvement or repair, including, but not limited to: the remodeling, altering, painting, repairing, renovating, restoring, moving, demolishing, or modernizing of residential or noncommercial property or the making of additions thereto, and includes, but is not limited to, the construction, installation, replacement, improvement, or repair of driveways, sidewalks, swimming pools, terraces, patios, landscaping, fences, porches, windows, doors, cabinets, kitchens, bathrooms, garages, basements and basement waterproofing, fire protection devices, security protection devices, central heating and air conditioning equipment, water softeners, heaters, and purifiers, solar heating or water systems, insulation installation, siding, wallto-wall carpeting or attached or inlaid floor coverings, and other changes, repairs, or improvements made in or on, attached to or forming a part of the residential or noncommercial property.

Further, the Home Improvement Act requires that contracts for improvements in excess of $500 be in writing, signed by all parties to the contract, and detail the parties’ obligations and rights under the contract.

The contract must also accurately set forth in legible form all terms and conditions of the contract, including, but not limited to: 1. The legal name and business address of the seller, including the legal name and business address of the sales representative or agent who solicited or negotiated the contract for the seller; 2. The contractor’s Division of Consumer Affairs registration number, and the DCA’s toll free telephone number must be prominently displayed on the first page of the contract; 3. A copy of the Certificate of Commercial General Liability Insurance required of a contractor under the act and the telephone number of the insurance company issuing the certificate; 4. A description of the work to be done and the principal products and materials to be used or installed in performance of the contract; 5. The total price, including all finance charges and, where applicable, the hourly rate for labor; 6. The start date and completion date; 7. A description of any mortgage or security interest to be taken in connection with the financing or sale of the home improvement; 8. A statement of any guarantee or warranty with respect to any products, materials, labor or services made by the contractor; and 9. A precise and conspicuous notice of cancellation provision informing the customer of his or her right to cancel the contract by the end of the third business day after having received a copy of the contract.

Given the technical nature of the Home Improvement Act, most contractors do not utilize contracts with the aforementioned information and are thus using illegal contracts that could be deemed unenforceable.

Moreover, case law is emphatically clear that a contractor’s failure to provide a proper written contract to a consumer can result in a “per se” violation of the Consumer Fraud Act, meaning the consumer does not have to prove the contractor intended to violate the law. Thus, if a consumer can proof that a violation clearly occurred, the homeowner could be entitled to an award of actual damages, treble damages, and attorney’s fees when he or she has suffered an ascertainable loss as a direct result of the contractor’s violation. It is important when dealing with a consumer fraud issue that you contact an attorney that is familiar with this very technical statute. If you have any questions please feel free to contact our office at 732-505-1212 or visit our website at Rcshea.com.

Our clients’ success is our greatest reward.

Aviation:

Continued From Page 1

Ocean County Modelers will be manning several stations allowing visitors to actually f ly a plane utilizing what is called a buddy-box. This is a secondary control that allows the experienced pilot to take control of the plane and assist you with f lying. There will also be a raff le, 50/50, and refreshments available. The club will also be taking donations to benefit the Disabled American Veterans.”

The event is part of the larger, national Model Aviation Day sponsored by the Academy of Model Aeronautics Foundation. With a membership of more than 175,000 members, the AMA is the world’s largest model aviation association. OCM is a charter member of AMA. Members of OCM hope the day creates more model airplane enthusiasts.

“One of the problems, when people don’t get involved with clubs like ours, they generally get frustrated, they try it and they quit. This is a very technically demanding enterprise, that if the balance of the plane isn’t right,” OCM member Bill Martin said. “The thought that somebody can go buy a plane, go out to a field and start f lying is pretty ridiculous. I tried myself for a year-anda-half until I found these guys and all I did was break airplanes.”

Martin said his group will bend over backwards to help out f lying novices.

“A new person will show up and the plane is not set up right, the balance is not right, we’ll take them through it and we have the ability to put them on a shared controller, and we can have them up in the air in 10 minutes, f lying around,” Martin said. “They won’t necessarily be able to take off or land, but

with a few lessons, they can learn to do it and it’s a blast.”

The group gives back in other ways, too.

“Ocean County Modelers is very active in our community. We donate each year to the Jackson Township high school scholarship fund, police PBA, fire and EMTs. Our community efforts reach many with training, demonstrations, and teaching our youth about aeronautics.

OCM is involved with several other community groups including Manchester High School, New Egypt Elementary School, local Cub Scouts and the Civil Air Patrol (CAP) program. OCM members invest their time and talents to promote the sport and encourage our youth to pursue engineering and aeronautics,” Cook said.

There’s also an emphasis on veterans.

“OCM is dedicated to supporting our

service men and women who have been wounded in our country’s military conf licts. We are proud to have supported the Wounded Warrior Project last year and the Disabled American Veterans this year,” Cook said.

OCM has been helping model airplane enthusiasts for 40 years. While it started as mainly a place to privately f ly and build the planes, the group started hosting f lying events in 1989. The group allows f lying for all scales of RC f lying, including giant scale, jets, sport, trainer, park f lyers, micro, helicopters, and drones.

Anyone wishing to join OCM must first belong to the AMA. The annual membership fee for OCM is $70. The group meets 7 p.m., the fourth Wednesday of each month, at the Manchester Municipal Complex, Colonial Drive.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of aUGUST 6-aUGUST 12

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Your motto may be “the more the merrier” as this week unfolds. The urge to experiment with new and different things may be more tempting than usual.

Your idea of what can be fun might amuse or intrigue less adventurous souls.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Manners mean everything. There is a tendency for authority figures to be exacting in the week ahead, with a requirement for formality and respect. Your ambitions may surge and social exchanges may have a businesslike air.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Reserve judgment and make your own decisions. The attention of others can boost your spirits but it may be best to get all the facts before making a promise. Close companions may expect you to uphold high standards this week.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Congeniality and sociability is tempered by decorum as the week unfolds, so horseplay may be inappropriate. Remain organized and tend to the business at hand. Handle financial affairs with an eye on long term profits.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You seem to have the golden touch. Use an opportunity to bind someone more closely who can enrich your life or your wallet. People you meet in the week to come could be especially helpful over the long term.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): It might be a wonderful week to plant seeds for the future.

Promises that are made will very likely be honored and business plans will be well organized. Loved ones, however, may ask, “What’s in it for me?”

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The sharpest

pencils haven’t yet done any work. You have a tendency to compare yourself to others, but shouldn’t feel let down by the comparison. In the week ahead be proud of your myriad accomplishments.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Relationships may shift to a new level and business alliances could undergo an important transition. You may become more aware of public opinion this week. Innovation under stressful circumstances is your biggest strength. sAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Be confident of your accuracy when dealing with vague problems. In the week to come you may be motivated to be the best you can be.

Burn off some nervous energy by accepting an invitation for a change of scene.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Shakeups are quickly forgotten after the dice have been thrown. Make an effort to cooperate with everyone as this week unfolds. You and a partner must come to terms about a joint financial obligation or investment.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The atmosphere may cool down when there are restrictions. Attention to detail is called for in the week ahead and you must show respect to those in control. However, you are quite capable of manipulating circumstances in your favor.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Make a choice. You can fall prey to fear or promote understanding. In the week ahead you can tighten the bonds of key relationships or launch important initiatives with impunity. This might be a good time for a first date or meeting.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen The ‘Secret’ To Spago’s Meatballs

By Wolfgang Puck Though you could hardly label me an Italian chef with a name like Wolfgang Puck, I can’t deny that some of my early fame was sparked by the gourmet California-style pizzas I began serving when I opened my first Spago back in 1982. Still, it surprises me even today when guests sing the praises of a recipe I never could have imagined would be associated with me. That recipe? Meatballs!

It wasn’t a very big leap, I must admit, to offering meatballs as a casual lunch specialty at Spago. Our guests loved them so much, though, that to this day they often demand the dish even when we dare to take it off the menu.

The recipe gets requested a lot, with people almost whispering when they ask me to “share the secrets” that make these meatballs so juicy and hearty tasting. But there really aren’t any earth-shaking secrets to divulge about these meatballs. The key to success is really about paying a lot of attention to easy-to-achieve little details that add up to something truly delicious and satisfying.

That starts with the way I make the meatballs extra light, moist and fluffy. A trick smart home cooks have used for ages: soaking bread in milk before adding it to the mixture. That mixture also includes onions and garlic, sauteed in olive oil to develop their sweetness and aroma, some freshly grated Parmesan cheese and lots of chopped fresh herbs. And let’s not forget the meat! I use a mixture of beef, chicken and veal for a more complex flavor. Feel free to substitute any other ground meats you like.

The way I mix, shape and cook the meatballs plays an important role too. I use clean hands to combine the ingredients, which yields a lighter consistency as opposed to stirring with a heavy spoon. I shape the meatballs by hand, too, easing them into a simmering tomato sauce that slowly and flavorfully cooks them through without drying them out or hardening them the way frying or baking could.

Once the meatballs are done, you can serve them any way you like: solo, tucked inside long Italian sandwich rolls, or even on atop a mound of rice pilaf or creamy mashed potatoes. Of course, I like them best served the most traditional way: over pasta. But don’t give me spaghetti with such juicy, hearty meatballs. I prefer to use a sturdier pasta, like the dried strands known as bucatini. Top the whole thing with some freshly grated Parmesan and chopped fresh parsley, and you’ll have a dish that could well bring you fame as a great Italian chef!

JUICY ITALIAN-STYLE MEATBALLS IN MARINARA SAUCE WITH BUCATINI Serves 4 2 slices slightly stale firm white bread 1 cup (250 mL) milk

6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving 1/2 large yellow onion, finely chopped 6 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped 12 to 14 ounces (360 to 400 g) ground beef 12 to 14 ounces (360 to 400 g) ground chicken 12 to 14 ounces (360 to 400 g) ground veal 1 large cage-free egg 3 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves chopped 3 sprigs fresh oregano, leaves chopped 1/2 cup (125 mL) chopped fresh Italian parsley Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 1/2 cup (125 mL) freshly grated Parmesan cheese 6 cups (1.5 L) store-bought tomato sauce 1 pound (500 g) dried bucatini or other dried pasta strands Break up the bread into a mixing bowl.

Add the milk, submerging the bread.

Leave the bread to soak for about 10 minutes.

Heat 3 tablespoons of the oil in a heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and saute, stirring occasionally, until glossy but not yet browned, about 5 minutes. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, put the ground beef, chicken and veal. Squeeze the milk from the soaked bread and add the bread to the meats, discarding the milk. Add the egg, thyme and oregano, half of the parsley, and the onion-garlic mixture.

Season with salt and pepper. Add half of the Parmesan. With clean hands, combine thoroughly.

Bring the tomato sauce to a simmer in a wide pan with high sides. Fill a medium bowl with cold water. Moistening your hands in the water as needed to prevent sticking, shape the meat mixture about 1/2 cup (125 mL) at a time into even balls, gently and carefully easing them into the sauce Partially cover the pan and simmer the meatballs gently, adjusting the heat as necessary, until they are cooked through, about 165 F (75 C) on an instant-read thermometer, about 45 minutes.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, tender but still slightly chewy, following the manufacturer’s suggested cooking time.

Drain the pasta. Heat the remaining oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pasta and 2 tablespoons each of the remaining parsley and Parmesan; toss well. Spoon the meatballs and sauce on top, drizzle with some olive oil, and garnish with the last of the Parmesan and parsley. Serve immediately.
