A�ain Tes�s Harr� Wri��� La�e

By Catherine Galioto and Jennifer Peacock MANCHESTER – The latest set of testing again closed the low and high beach at Harry Wright Lake for swimming on August 22.

Swimmers have been turned away due to poor water quality across several days starting in July, with the prolonged closures, officials said, a result of geese feces and low rain fall.

Samples were taken Aug ust 21, prompting the beach to be closed that day and August 22.

Ocean County Health Department Officials test daily after a beach is closed for poor water quality, meaning the next set of tests were August 22 and available the next day, after presstime.

The county maintains the results of its testing and any current advisories on its website, ochd.org/WaterReports.

The township said that no beach badge refunds would be given.

However, the Township Recreation Depar t ment again announced officials were investigating options to kee p t he la ke clea n and keep geese away, but said previously that many of t ho s e o pt ion s we r e used, and they eventually proved unsuccessful.

On August 16, the township recreation depar tment said the cou nt y health department would be conducting extensive testing on Harry Wright La ke to deter m i ne t he cause of the high results in the water testing.

“Please don’t be alarmed if you see a change in the water color. They will be using a non-hazardous biodegradable dye to determine the flow of the water.

Hopefully, the testing will help us rectify the problem and we can enjoy Harry Wright Lake again soon,” announced the department through its Facebook page.

Each year from mid-April to early September, the Ocean County Health Department monitors the county’s more than 70 rivers, lakes, creeks and other waterways to ensure their safety for bathers.

The county’s salt water and brackish water—partly salty, partly fresh—is tested every Monday and its creeks, ponds and lakes each Tuesday. They test for Enterococcus and Fecal Coliform, both bacteria found in the intestines of warm-blooded mammals. Enterococcus

must read below 104 colonies per 100 ml water and fecal coliform below 200 colonies per 100ml of water to be considered safe.

An advisory is issued at the fi rst high count. If a second high count is read the following day, the OCHD closes the beach until the bacteria levels return to normal.

They test for Enterococcus and Fecal Coliform, both bacteria found in the intestines of warm-blooded mammals.

Enterococcus must read below 104 colonies per 100 ml water and Fecal Coliform below 200 colonies per 100ml of water to be considered safe. The water is immediately resampled to test the levels again.

According to the NJ Department of Environmental Protection, “Swimming in or contact with polluted water can cause gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain, respiratory symptoms like sore throat, cough, runny nose, and sneezing, eye and ear symptoms including irritation, earache, and itchiness, dermatological symptoms like skin rash and itching, and f lu-like symptoms such as fever and chills. These symptoms are minor most of the time, but can occasionally be more serious, especially in sensitive populations, such as in children and elderly. People should also not swim with

open sores, and see a doctor if a cut does become infected after water exposure.”

For example, the county tested both beaches at Harry Wright Lake in Manchester. The levels exceeded the county’s limits on July 20. The bacteria levels were even higher the following day.

While sunbathers were still allowed on the beach, the lake was closed for swimming on July 22 and 23. When the lake was tested at the beginning of the season on May 17, both beaches were well below county limits on bacteria levels.

The new site has resource pages for parents, students, community members, and teachers and includes all the district’s social media posts as well as the school calendar, summer reading lists, PTA information, Manchester Township Educational Foundation and Booster Club links.

Each school—Whiting, Ridgeway, and

Manchester Township elementary schools, the middle school, high school, and Regional Day School—still have their own pages. While teachers aren’t required to maintain active web pages, they are able to have pages through the school website, Parent Portal, or Facebook groups.

Bruzaitis added that soon, parents will be able to sign up for alerts through the new site, including e-mail and texts alerts for school closings and other emergencies

as well as school news, calendar updates, and an e-newsletter the school plans to produce.

She added that once the website is fully up and running—probably by September—that a parents focus group will be formed to gather more information on what should be added or changed to the new site.

In Wa�e Of Bri��e Malf�n��ions, Offi�ials Loo� A� Traffi� Pro�e��res

By Catherine Galioto OCEAN COUNTY – Whether you are stuck on the bridge itself or the traffic caused by it, local officials hope some meetings coordinating police and state efforts will mean fewer headaches if and when the Mathis Route 37 drawbridge gets stuck upright.

A plan would be to better mobilize traffic officers to cone off a lane of the Tunney bridge, the westbound span, to make a lane for eastbound traffic and divert it there instead, said Toms River Councilwoman Maria Maruca.

For a portion of three consecutive summer weekends, the Mathis bridge was stuck open, halting eastbound traffic until the drawbridge could be lowered for a time ranging from a half hour to several hours.

For July 30, the latest incident created traffic backups throughout the entire area, not just the lead-up to the bridge but on Fischer Boulevard and toward Brick as the Mantoloking Bridge became the next way to access the barrier island communities of Ortley Beach, Lavallette, Seaside Heights and Seaside Park.

“We’ve had that bridge get stuck open and it was a parking lot on Route 37, on Fischer Boulevard, all the way into Brick with people trying to get over the Mantoloking Bridge,” Maruca said. “From now on they will notify our department, along with Seaside Heights and Berkeley Township

involved shifting the lanes on the Tunney bridge to allow eastbound traffic there.

“We had 10 to 12 units on scene. I believe this is third time it was stuck. First thing was to detour people off Route 37 away from approaching the bridge. Second was to back all cars off bridge and clear them out so they didn’t have to sit for the duration.

Next was to take the three one-way west lanes on the other bridge and divide them so we could move traffic in both directions,” Stocco said. “We coordinated with Berkeley and Seaside police on the eastern side. We also used our park security and auxiliary volunteer officers. The N.J. State DOT arrived for the repairs as well as providing detour barricades and cones.”

Daniel Triana, spokesperson for the DOT, said the Mathis Bridge, which is a double-leaf bascule bridge, had a barrier gate malfunction which prevented the bridge from closing on July 30.

“Due to regular boat traffic there are frequent bridge openings,” Triana said. “The bridge is being inspected frequently while the project is ongoing in an attempt to avoid future malfunctions.”

On August 4, the Ocean County Freeholders released a statement of their own, saying they were “joining the chorus of concerned elected officials that are asking the state to help fix problems and possibly provide an alternative traffic pattern” should the (Bridge - See Page 7)

Mathis bridge malfunction again.

“Certainly we understand an aging span like this can have its problems but the bridge has already malfunctioned three times this summer season causing extensive traffic backups and safety concerns throughout many areas of Ocean County,” said Freeholder Joseph Vicari, who serves as liaison to tourism, in a prepared statement. “We need to quickly create an alternate traffic plan in order to keep traffic and emergency vehicles moving on and off that island.”

Vicari said they would join the 10th District Legislators in seeking a solution, in a letter to Department of Transportation Commis-

sioner Richard T. Hammer “No one needs to be reminded that this is the heaviest travel period on a summer weekend.

People sat for hours in traffic,” Vicari said.

“This is not how we want to present our County to our visitors and our residents.”

Freeholder Virginia E. Haines said the Route 37 bridges both serve as vital arteries in Ocean County moving thousands and thousands of people on and off the northern barrier islands.

“I agree with our 10th District legislators that the breakdowns are ‘unacceptable’ and the DOT needs to fix whatever is causing the malfunction as quickly as possible,” she said. “With tourists doubling our population, keeping this bridge in good working order is imperative to public safety.”

E�������� A Left Turn Lane For Route 9?

The latest plan to bring relief to congestion and dangerous conditions on Route 9 between Route 571 in Toms River and Cross Street in Lakewood suggests adding a center turning lane along a stretch of the state highway. A similar lane exists on much of Fischer Boulevard for example, and traffic hoping to make a left turn into a plaza can use the center lane to wait to make their turn safely.

On Fischer, both sides of that county road are lined with so many entrances to businesses, strip malls and local roads. That, and the busy nature of Fischer Boulevard, is similar to conditions on Route 9.

But that’s where the similarities stop. For much of Fischer, traffic has multiple lanes traveling north and south, unlike this stretch of Route 9, which for decades has one lane in each direction. Fischer has a tremendous capacity to keep traffic moving with its current set-up, while Route 9 backs up and stalls its traffic. Adding that turning lane could help, but in our view, not much. It would make it

easier for those turning onto Route 9 from local roads or driveways to get up to speed or queue into traffic, certainly. But instead of adding another much-needed lane for traffic, creating one just for turning doesn’t completely solve the problem of all the extra traffic heading north or south – it still is the same amount of lanes as before.

It may even complicate traffic. A northbound driver trying to turn left into a strip mall would use the same lane space as a southbound driver making a left turn into a business on their side of the road, which means one driver is the oncoming traffic of the other driver.

We’re glad to see – finally – some focus on improving Route 9 and recognizing what the future holds, given all the proposed development and population growth the corridor is seeing in this area. Plans for new traffic signals, right turn lanes and better placement of bus stops are encouraging proposals. The targeted focus on this six-mile stretch is needed.

L������ T� T�� E����� Patriotism More Than Actions On Memorial Day Regarding Mr. Shedaker’s recent letter opining that the Orthodox community in Lakewood is disrespectful of Memorial Day due to their failure to attend parades or display flags and their choice to attend school thereby forcing bus drivers to work. I wonder i Mr. Shedaker holds the same opinion of Jehovah’s Witnesses who neither display flags nor celebrate the holiday nor will they enter the armed forces in defense of this country, or are his feelings reserved strictly for the residents of Lakewood?

How does he feel about every retail store, restaurant or movie theater that failed to close on that day in the name of profit thereby forcing employees to work?

Is that also disrespectful of our very precious holiday?

To be sure, the issues in Lakewood are deep and plentiful, but one’s patriotism and respect for this country is not determined by flag waving or parade attendance.

Pinning a flag to one’s lapel doesn’t make you a patriot any more than driving into your garage makes you a car.

Candidates Must Commit To Social Security Funding One way for the candidates to demonstrate they have what it takes to be president is to tell voters how they’ll

keep Social Security strong for our kids and grandkids.

Millions of Garden State residents are paying into Social Security, but the program is out of date. If our nation’s leaders don’t act, future retirees could lose up to $10,000 a year in benefits.

With a volatile stock market and fewer jobs offering pensions, today’s workers and future generations will likely have an even greater need for Social Security.

Before we decide who to vote for, we deserve to know if the presidential candidates will commit to taking action to update Social Security for us, our kids and grandkids.

Douglas Johnston Manager of Governmental Affairs & Advocacy AARP State Office, New Jersey

No To “There’s Always Next Year” Sen. Stephen Sweeney made a promise to our members that the pension amendment would happen this year.

Next year isn’t good enough.

He needs to decide whether he’s going to lead or just roll over and be part of the problem.

New Jersey has too many politicians who have broken pension promises.

We need a leader who will keep the promise.

We will not accept anything less than the amendment he promised this year.

Hillary’s Your Answer Now that we have fi nished watching the Olympics of presidential conventions, there can be no comparison as to the victor -- Hillary Clinton! To see the caliber of her spokespersons was truly amazing, from the Muslim father whose son was killed in Afghanistan, to the young lady with cerebral palsy who is now an advocate for those with disabilities, to the retired general who led the war in Afghanistan, to disaffected Republican spokespeople, along with so many others, and the nominee herself who is actually intelligent, sane and experienced.

The other presidential nominee has such thin skin and can be taunted so easily to tweet non-presidential tantrums along with name calling. I am amazed that the race is even close.

You seniors, do you like your Medicare and Social Security? Do you want these “entitlements” (per the Republicans) changed and lessened? You young people, do you want your and future generations to continue to be saddled with astronomical student loan debt? You middle class, do you want to work and work and hardly make ends meet while those at the top take the lion’s share? You earth people, do you love this planet and want it abused by climate change deniers?

Do you want a person with questionable judgment to have his hand on the nuclear button? If not, Hillary’s your answer!

I know some of you want an “outsider,” but be very careful what you wish for.

Our nation and our world depends on it.

Rosemary Doherty Berkeley

Condolences I would like to send my deepest heartfelt sympathy to the family and friends of the woman who was struck and killed while walking along Ridgeway Road in Barnegat on August 8.

According to the reports, as she was walking her dog and speaking with her husband on her cell phone, she was hit by a speeding Silverado truck and left to die on the road. She passed away in the hospital.

The driver left the scene, prompting a police manhunt which resulted in the driver’s arrest at her home.

I can’t imagine how her husband felt when he spotted her lying on that lonely road, but apparently there was a witness.

Although, unfortunately, there has been a number of people who have been killed or badly injured on our local roads, I’m very saddened by this incident because I’ve walked on this road many times and I may have passed her and exchanged greetings.

Let this tragedy remind us all when walking or jogging to be aware of the vehicles whizzing by us.

There’s just not enough room i n some areas to walk.

I’ve noticed that most drivers are careful near pedestrians, but I’ve also seen motorists who like to play ‘ch icken’ w it h you, are on cell phones, are screaming out their windows at you or racing through crosswalks.

Due to these experiences, I prefer to walk facing the traffic flow, so I can watch what the drivers are doing.

People at both ends really need to be careful.

Rest in peace, dear fellow walker.

Township Begins Park Revitalization Plan

MANCHESTER – Growing up in Pine Lake Park, the Sixth Avenue Park was a mainstay for me and my friends. Whether it was basketball, baseball or football, we always seemed to be playing at the park.

The park was within a short bike ride distance so when the street lights came on, I could get home in five minutes.

Unfortunately, over the years, Sixth Avenue Park, like a number of our parks in town, have been in decline for a myriad of reasons. One of my goals after being elected was to de-

OCEAN COUNTY – The Office of the Ocean County Prosecutor once again is receiving calls from individuals who have received unsolicited calls from individuals demanding payment while fraudulently claiming to be from the IRS. Based on the 90,000 complaints that the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration has received through its telephone hotline, to date, TIGTA has identified approximately 1,100 victims who have lost an estimated $5 million from this scam. Taxpayers should remember their first contact with the IRS will not be a call from out of the blue, but through official correspondence sent through the mail. A big red flag for these scams are angry, threatening calls from

velop a systematic plan to revitalize our parks. Some of our parks need a major overhaul (Sixth Avenue Park), while some other parks can use some updating (playground equipment at Bowker Field) and some other parks are in great shape (World War II).

With the cooperation and help of the Town Council, we are implementing the Park Revitalization Plan.

The plan is to revitalize one park per year. This year we have already begun revitalizing the Sixth Avenue Park.

To date, we have ripped

up the black top that covered half of the field. I am proud to announce that the Town Council has approved the purchase of new playground equipment and we plan to construct a small pavilion so parents can sit in the shade. We are resurfacing the basketball and tennis courts, improving the beach volleyball court and installing an irrigation system so the field will be green and lush. We want to make this park a place where parents and kids look forward to using.

Importantly, we are paying for the Park Revitalization

Plan from our Open Space Fund. As a part of your tax bill, each tax payer pays 1 penny per $100 of their assessed value towards our Open Space Fund. This past year, the Open Space Tax yielded approximately $320,000 in revenue. That seems like a lot of money, however, the majority of the Open Space revenue is used to pay the bonds taken by the town to fund some large purchases of open space along County Route 571.

Thanks to Martin Lynch’s diligence (our tax assessor), Manchester Township was

reimbursed over $800,000 from the State of New Jersey’s Open Space Fund for those purchases. This money is specifically earmarked to maintain our parks and open space.

For those who have lived in town for a number years and can recall when the town previously improved this park, vandals were not far behind. As a deterrent and protection to tow n property, we are installing cameras that provide 24 hour surveillance. I have also asked our police department to increase their watch of the park.

County Prosecutor: IRS Phone Scam Making Rounds Again people who say they are from the IRS and urging immediate payment. This is not how the IRS operates.

People should hang up immediately and contact TIGTA or the IRS. Additionally, it is important for taxpayers to know that the IRS: Never asks for credit card, debit card or prepaid card information over the telephone.

Never insists that taxpayers use a specific payment method to pay tax obligations Never requests immediate payment over the telephone and will not take enforcement action immediately following a phone conversation. Taxpayers usually receive prior notification of IRS enforcement action involving IRS tax liens or levies.

Potential phone scam victims may be told that they owe money that must be paid immediately to the IRS or they are entitled to big refunds. When unsuccessful the first time, sometimes phone scammers call back trying a new strategy.

Other characteristics of these scams include: Scammers use fake names and IRS badge numbers.

They generally use common names and surnames to identify themselves.

Scammers may be able to recite the last four digits of a victim’s Social Security number.

Scammers spoof the IRS toll-free number on caller ID to make it appear that it’s the IRS calling.

Scammers sometimes send bogus IRS emails to some victims to support their

bogus calls.

Victims hear background noise of other calls being conducted to mimic a call site.

After threatening victims with jail time or driver’s license revocation, scammers hang up and others soon call back pretending to be from the local police or DMV, and the caller ID supports their claim.

If a resident receives a phone call from someone claiming to be from the IRS, here’s what they should do: If the resident knows they owe taxes or they think they might owe taxes, call the IRS at 800-829-1040. The IRS employees at that line

can help callers with a payment issue, if there really is such an issue.

If a resident knows they don’t owe taxes or have no reason to think that they owe any taxes, then call and report the incident to TIGTA at 800-366-4484.

The Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office encourages taxpayers to be vigilant against phone and email scams that use the IRS as a lure. The IRS does not initiate contact with taxpayers by email to request personal or financial information.

This includes any type of electronic communication, such as text messages and social media channels. The

Detectives found that Conte had written multiple checks to himself or to “cash” over the three year period, with a total amount exceeding $30,000.

The fire company now adheres to a rule that requires that all checks contain two signatures.

Conte was charged with one count of Official Misconduct, which is second degree crime and two counts of Theft in excess of $30,000, a third degree crime. He was lodged in the Ocean County Jail on $75,000 bail.

“Drive Sober Or Get Pulled Over” In Lakehurst LAKEHURST – Police Officers from Lakehurst will be cracking down on drunk drivers as part of the 2016 Labor Day Statewide “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign.

Through September 5, local and state law enforcement officers will conduct sobriety checkpoints and roving patrols, looking for motorists who may be driving while intoxicated. Once again Lakehurst Police has received a grant to fund DUI Patrols.

“Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” is a national campaign designed to raise awareness about the dangers of drinking and driving through high-visibility enforcement and public education tools, including posters, banners and mobile video display signs. Launched across the U.S. in 1999, the program works to combat drunk driving during the busy summer travel season, including the Labor Day holiday period.

As part of the initiative, the Division of Highway Traffic Safety provides grants to local law

enforcement agencies throughout the state to run the two-week campaign.

Law enforcement agencies participating in the Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over 2016 crackdown offer the following advice: If you plan to drink, designate a driver, someone who will not drink alcohol, before going out.

Take mass transit, a taxi or ask a sober friend to drive you home.

Spend the night where the activity is held.

Report impaired drivers to law enforcement.

In New Jersey, drivers may dial #77 to report a drunk or aggressive driver.

Always buckle up, every ride, regardless of your seating position in the vehicle. It’s your best defense against an impaired driver.

If you’re intoxicated and traveling on foot, the safest way to get home is to take a cab or have a sober friend or family member drive you to your doorstep.

He’s also approached by Dorothy Wynant whose inventor father, Clyde Wynant, is suspected of murdering her step-mother. Her father had left on a planned trip some months before and she has had no contact with him.

Charles isn’t all that keen on resuming his

GOLD BUYERS, LLC –Photo courtesy Master Sgt. Mark C. Olsen, U.S. Air National Guard Brig. Gen. Michael L. Cunniff, left, the Adjutant General of New Jersey, presents Brig. Gen. Kevin J. Keehn, deputy commander New Jersey Air National Guard, the NJANG guidon during a Change of Command Ceremony at the 108th Wing, Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst on August 13.

JOINT BASE – The New Jersey Air National Guard has a new commander. Brig. Gen. Kevin J. Keehn, of Bayville, assumed command of the state’s 2,400 Airmen at a ceremony on August 13 at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst.

He replaced Brig. Gen. Robert C. Bolton, of Rumson, who is retiring.

Keehn, a native of Jackson, enlisted in the active duty Air Force in 1975 as an in-flight refueling operator and joined the New Jersey Air National Guard’s 108th Wing four years later.

In 1984, Keehn was commissioned as a second lieutenant through the Academy of Military Science at McGhee Tyson Air National Guard Base in Knoxville, TN. After completing pilot training at Columbus Air Force Base in MS, Keehn rejoined New Jersey’s 108th Wing as a KC-135 pilot.

Keehn went on to hold many key roles in the 108th Wing, including serving as both the 150th and 141st Air Refueling Squadron’s operations director and, ultimately, the wing commander. He also served as the principal advisor to the Adjutant General for plans and requirements on matters pertaining to Military Support to Civilian Authorities.

Keehn has deployed multiple times in support of global contingency operations to include Operations Desert Storm I and II, Northern Watch, Joint Forge, Allied Force, Noble Eagle, Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom.

As commander of the New Jersey Air National Guard, Keehn will oversee both the 108th Wing and the 177th Fighter Wing, which is based at the Atlantic City Air National Guard base, Egg Harbor Township.

36 Foods That Contain Aspirin

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Ingredients similar to aspirin were extracted from meadowsweet and willow bark centuries ago, but in 1899, salicin was altered into a patentable drug called aspirin.

Aspirin was approved for the treatment of gout and rheumatic fever, but today we know it as an anti-clotting agent and pain reliever. Around 100 billion aspirin tablets are produced every year.

Aspirin is a “salicylate” compound and millions of people are unknowingly allergic to salicylates, mainly because the foods that it occurs in naturally are not very similar. For example, broccoli, olives, Coca cola, breath mints, pistachios, mushrooms and coffee have nothing obvious in common, so you’d never trace a salicylate allergy to these foods. Yet, they all contain salicylates, similar to aspirin. So if you’re reactive to any of those foods, it’s a clue you might have a salicylate allergy.

Salicylate are found in dozens of foods that aren’t similar. Symptoms that may occur include headaches, asthma, wheezing, nausea, diarrhea, stomach upset, itching, rash, swelling of your hands, feet or your face or sinus symptoms. Your throat may get itchy, painful or swollen, or your lips may swell. If you experience these or other symptoms, it could very well be the "aspirin" in your food, termed a salicylate allergy.

People who know they are allergic to aspirin know to avoid other over-thecounter medications which may contain aspirin such as cold or flu remedies,

antacids, menstrual cycle pain-relievers, certain fizzy antacids, teething gel or toothache remedies.

Some who are allergic to aspirin can actually eat some salicylate-rich foods without a problem. And then there’s a subset of people who eat foods and suffer, and don’t know why. And finally, there are some of you who need the benefits of aspirin, and want to eat salicylates through natural sources. So the following list of foods high in salicylate will serve a different purpose for all of you, depending on what category you fall into.

Natural aspirin is found in the following: apples, apricots, avocados, blackberries, blueberries, broccoli, cantaloupe, caulif lower, cherries, chili peppers, cucumbers, currants, dates, dried herbs/ spices, eggplant, figs, grapefruit, grapes, green peppers, guava, kiwi, licorice herb (candy is okay), meadowsweet, mint (gum, breath mints, toothpaste), all kinds of nuts, paprika, peaches, plums, prunes, radishes, raspberries, spinach, strawberries, turmeric, wine and .zucchini Fruits and vegetables are higher in salicylates when not fully ripe.

You might be wondering why a handful of you can eat salicylate-rich foods when you are allergic to aspirin. It’s because aspirin contains an “acetyl” molecule on the compound because that acetyl group was attached to it in order to turn the natural herb into a drug. Naturally-occurring salicylates do not have this acetyl group and that’s what usually triggers the reaction.

R.C. Shea & Assoc.

Inside The Law An Overview Of “Death Taxes” In New Jersey

Robert C. Shea Esq.

By Robert C. Shea, Esq. & Marc S. Galella, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates

Persons passing away as residents of New Jersey may have their estates subject to potentially three “death taxes.” These taxes are the Federal Estate Tax (FET); the New Jersey Estate Tax (NJET) and the New Jersey Inheritance Tax (IT). This article will provide a brief overview of these death taxes.

The Federal Estate Tax is an estate tax imposed by federal law. The bad news is that the FET tax rate is very high at 40 percent. However, the good news is that as part of the continuation of the Bush Tax cuts, the FET threshold has been raised and in this year (2016) the FET applies only to estates in excess of $5,450,000. The better news is that for a married couple, the threshold can be as high as $10,900,000 under certain circumstances. For the majority of persons reading this article, the FET is not a concern.

The New Jersey Estate Tax was referred to as a “sponge tax.” This meant that a percentage of the FET was paid to the State of New Jersey. After the FET threshold was raised in 2002, the State clarified that the NJET would remain in effect for estates in excess of $675,000, no matter how high the threshold for the FET would become. There is no NJET for assets passing to a surviving spouse. Many individuals in the Ocean County area fi nd that their estates are in excess of the NJET threshold. The good news is that the tax rate for the NJET is relatively low. For example, a $675,000 estate would be taxed at the rate of 3 percent. An estate of $1,000,000 would

be taxed at the rate of 4.6 percent. As of the time of this article, Marc S. Galella Esq. there are numerous legislative bills in Trenton that would either eliminate the NJ ET or raise the th reshold into the $2-3 million range.

However, given the State’s ongoing budget crisis, it is uncertain whether this legislation will be passed.

The fi nal death tax is the New Jersey Inheritance Tax. This is a tax imposed upon the beneficiaries of the estate based upon the class of person inheriting. As of the mid-1980s, spouses and lineal descendants of the decedent have been totally exempt from the IT. Siblings of the decedents are entitled to a $25,000 exemption and then are taxed at the rate of 11 percent up to $1,000,000 and the tax rate increases after that. All other beneficiaries are taxed at the rate of 15 percent up to $700,000 and 16 percent in excess of that amount. There is no tax on inheritances of less than $500.

There is no tax in bequests to recognized charities.

The topic of death taxes in New Jersey is complicated and subject to many regulations and exceptions. There are ways to avoid or reduce some of these taxes.

This article is intended only as an overview and is not intended to provide tax planning advice. For more information an attorney or accountant experienced with these taxes should be consulted.

Our clients’ success is our greatest reward.

Dear Joel

By Joel Markel

The Nature Of The Beast

Dear Joel My husband and I are fighting over a dog. I love animals and cannot live without one. My dream is to rescue two this year. We have a large yard and can afford to feed them. At this time I have no children except for my husband’s children from a previous marriage. I need this in my life right now as there is a feeling of emptiness. The problem is that my husband says that I am selfish because he has bad allergies, especially to dogs. I see him as the selfish one for depriving me of this.

Answer People are selfish beings. It is the nature of the beast. I see both sides here.

There is however a possible solution.

While there are few things as beautiful as rescuing an animal at a shelter, it may not be the best choice for your home. Although there is really no such thing as a hypoallergenic dog, some breeds are better than others. I would

suggest that you do some online r e s e a r ch a nd have your husband see if he reacts by visiting some litters.

A reputable breeder may suggest the following, referred to as the t-shirt test.

Your husband will send or deliver a t-shirt to the breeder. The breeder will let the mother and new born pups play with the t-shirt. It is then returned to you and your husband can wear it for a day or so. If reacts, chances are the outcome will be that he will be allergic to that dog.

Although it isn’t fool proof it has helped many families. I wish you luck.

Dr. Joseph Maneri Celebrates His 30th Year Of Excellence In Dentistry

By Robert Verderese An effective way to find a great dentist is to ask a few neighbor s where they go when they need dental care.

If you do, you will discover that many are heading to the dental office of Dr. Joseph Maneri.

Dr. Maneri, an established and well-known dentist, serving the Whiting community fo r alm ost 3 0 year s, has become the name that local residents know and trust for all their dental needs.

Joseph Maneri was born and raised in Bound Brook, and received his DMD in May of 1985 from the University and Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. When asked why he chose dentistry as his career, Dr. Maneri replies, “While in college, I felt called into dentistry. I knew I wanted to work in a field where I could combine my academic strengths with my desire to positively impact the lives of people. In dentistry, I have found that. With each patient, I have the unique opportunity to confront their dental challenges and improve their overall oral health.”

D r. M a n e r i ’s e d u c at i o n continues to this day, as he makes it a point to study the latest dental advances.

This constant acquiring of knowledge keeps his practice current with the latest techniques and gives his patients the peace of mind of knowing that only the very best technology is being utilized.

Married with three children, Dr. Maneri understands the impor tance of creating an atmosphere where patients feel c omfor table br inging their loved ones. In many cases, new patients are happy to share their wonderful experience with others, knowing their recommendation will result in the very best dental treatment and the very kindest service.

A large portion of the Whiting population consists of people who have recently moved from their home towns into new surroundings. This can be a stressful transition, especially when it comes to finding a new dentist. Often, new residents have had the

Dr. Maneri’s office makes this adjustment easy from start to finish. When a patient, new or existing, calls the office, they are warmly greeted by a knowledgeable, c our teous rec eptionist. A voice mail system is available after business hours so Dr. Maneri can handle dental emergencies.

It is very important to Dr. Maneri that ever yone who walks into his office is treated with the respect and dignity that they deserve. Dr. Maneri states, “I treat my patents the same way I treat my own family, with compassion and understanding.”

This view that the patient is an extension of the family is a cornerstone of Dr. Maneri’s dental philosophy and is evidenced in his constant striving to involve and educate his patients in creating their treatment plans. Dr. Maneri makes it a point about getting to know his patients so he can understand their expectations as to insure that they make good decisions about their health and achieve their desired results.

To be sure, having a good

r ap p o r t w it h hi s pat i e nt s based on mutual respect and friendship allows Dr. Maneri to customize his treatments based on each person’s individual needs. Sometimes a course of treatment which might be perfect for someone in their 30s or 40s may not be suitable for someone in their 70s or 80s. It is times like this when listening becomes as much of an asset to the field of dentistr y as treatment.

Patients feel c omfor table here, knowing that whenever possible their wishes will be carried out exactly as they express them.

Designed for patient comfo r t an d s at i sf ac t i o n, D r.

Maneri’s office plays music from the big band era to the 1970’s: “The music we play here creates a positive vibe for our patients and sparks good conversation among us,” says D r. M aner i. In many instances, a patient will express how a song brings them back to a certain moment in their life. The next thing you know, the patient starts telling their life story. It is this kind of patient comfort that Dr. Maneri takes great pride in and reflects his main concern to ensure that his patients are fully satisfied

with their dental experience.

In addition to Dr. Maneri’s nearly 30 years of experience as a dentist, his support staff has over 100 years of combined experience in the field. This means that everyone you meet here, from the receptionist to the office manager to the dental hygienists to the dental assis-

tants, will have the expertise to answer your questions and concerns competently and professionally. The personalized attention received on the phone sets the stage for the welcome patients receive upon entering the office.

Dr. Maneri’s office participates in Delta Dental, Aetna, humana and Cigna, though all dent al insuranc es are welcome. Flexible financing is also available for people with no insurance, “we offer a variety of payment options customized to our patient’s individual needs,” says Dr. Maneri. He is more than happy to review these choices with his patients when scheduling t heir rec o mmende d treatment plans. “We really want to make the overall dental experience less stressful and less of a financial burden for all of our patients,” continues Dr. Maneri.

So come and discover with yo ur ow n eye s t h e war m and friendly atmosphere Dr. Maneri has brought to the field of dentistry in our community. The office is located at 67 Lacey Road, Suite 1, in Whiting. The phone number is 732-350-2100. The office hours are Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and on Friday’s they are open 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

PROFESSIONAL PROFILE Garden State Radiation Oncology

Toms River Radiation Oncologist Dr. Bryan Eggert Fights The Good Fight For Patient Lives And Liberties

By Joyce Blay Toms River radiation oncology specialist Dr. Bryan Eggert is not running for public office, but that hasn’t stopped him from advocating for his patients’ rights to government services.

“I fight for my patients to get what they deserve,” he tells a visitor to his office. “I advocate for treatment and medical coverage.”

Dr. Eggert is an affiliate physician of Garden State Medical Center, a unique multi-specialty, out-patient medical facility serving the tri-state area.

He also fights for the health and well-being of patients engaged in a personal battle with an implacable foe - cancer.

For this staunch medical warrior, there is no retreat and no quarter given.

“The general outlook for a cancer diagnosis is quite ominous,” Dr. Egger t says. “I think people need to understand and overcome that psychological barrier. A diagnosis of cancer is no longer the end of the world.”

Many of Dr. Eggert’s patients are diagnosed with breast cancer. The West f ield, NJ native views their lives and their self-esteem his personal responsibility to rescue.

“Isn’t empathy a doctor’s personal responsibility?” he asks rhetorically. “I provide emotional support, empathy, counseling. A patient diagnosed with cancer that comes here for radiological treatment will

But not for Dr. Eggert and his staff.

The Renaissance physician prepared for a distinguished academic career by combining a rigorous medical education with a broad interest in liberal arts.

Dr. Eggert is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of George Washington University in Washington, D.C., where he majored in Chemistry, but also excelled in Philosophy and English. In 1983, Dr. Eggert received his medical degree from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, MO. “That was a very intensive program,” he says of his medical education.

In addition to his professional responsibilities, Dr. Egger t also may arrange for delivery of social services, such as Meals On Wheels, or service calls from the Visiting Nurse Association.

“I’d like to think I pick up on little things in order to treat the whole person,” he says.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of aUG. 27 - Sept. 2

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Your overconfidence can backfire. As this week unfolds your business sense and people skills might periodically abandon you. Avoid making impulse purchases and pass up a chance for a passing fling or one night stand.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): A steady hand at the rudder is needed. You may need to fight off the urge to do something slightly impetuous. Wait until the second half of the week when your business sense is stronger to make crucial decisions.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): When inspiration calls, answer the phone. You may gather ideas that can make your work easier or your wallet fatter. The first half of the week might not be the best time to negotiate or to deal with partners.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Fulfill your fantasies by focusing on a friendly face. A companion could seem to have a crystal ball that helps you visualize how to accomplish a worthy goal. Put business and financial ideas into action during the second half of the week.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): A budget designed for beer might not support a taste for champagne.

You may be attracted to fads or quickly fading fashions early in the week. If you are patient you will find a shrewd way to obtain what you want.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The best way to stay within a budget is to limit spending. Money can easily slip through your fingers in the week ahead so avoid impulsive spending sprees. A partner or loved one might do something you did not expect.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): If you start comparing notes on who has what, a competition may begin. As this week unfolds you can use your people skills to widen your network of supporters.

Focus on being true blue, honest and completely sincere.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Mind your own business. You will mind your business best in the last half of the week. Until then remain alert for situations where your cash could be at risk. A loved one could be slightly unpredictable for a day or two.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Don’t let fears get the best of you. In the week to come you must avoid arguments and misunderstandings at all costs. If you focus on being a real friend, even with family members, you can bypass a potential rift.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You can only control the part of the world that is under your control. A family member may have a different idea about what constitutes sound financial practices. In the week ahead put a muzzle on your control freak side.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Money is green but doesn’t grow on trees or even bushes. Restrain the urge to buy something on an impulse. A sudden change in a family situation might motivate you to be more businesslike in the week ahead.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Good friends are far and few between. Share your wants and needs with a trusted buddy to put things in perspective. In the week ahead avoid misunderstandings with loved ones. Wait until the dust settles to make your move.

CLASSIC SHRIMP SCAMPI Serves 4 1 1/4 pounds (625 g) large shrimp, about 20 per pound (.5 kg), peeled with tail fins left intact, and deveined Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter 4 large cloves garlic, finely chopped 3 shallots, finely chopped 1/2 cup (125 mL) dry white wine 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 2 to 3 pinches crushed red pepper flakes 2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley 3 cups (750 mL) cooked white or brown rice Pat the shrimp dry. Arrange them on a platter or tray. Season all over with salt and black pepper. Sprinkle evenly with flour and toss to coat.

Heat a heavy large skillet over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and heat until it

just starts to smoke. Add the shrimp. Cook until they turn pink on the bottom, about 1 1/2 minutes. Using tongs and working quickly, turn the shrimp over. Cook until uniformly pink, about 1 minute longer. Transfer the shrimp to a plate.

Add 1 tablespoon each of the olive oil and the butter to the skillet; stir over medium-high heat until the butter melts. Add the garlic and shallots; saute for 2 minutes, stirring and scraping to dislodge the pan deposits.

Add the wine and bring to a boil, stirring and scraping to deglaze, until the sauce begins to thicken, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and remaining tablespoons of butter. Season to taste with salt, pepper and red pepper flakes.

Add the shrimp and parsley to the sauce. Toss to warm the shrimp through and coat them with the sauce. If the sauce seems too thick, stir in a little water to thin.

Transfer the rice to 4 serving plates, quickly molding it first in lightly oiled ramekins or custard cups if you like. Or simply spoon and mound it. Arrange the shrimp around and on top of the rice on each plate. Spoon the sauce over the shrimp. Serve immediately.
