Lacey Bites Into Apple Festival
By Chris Lundy LACEY – Calling it an Apple Festival is only half right. Sure, there are apples and pie galore, but it’s also a day of crafts and games. Run by the Lacey Township Historical Society, it also shows people of all ages what it was like to live ages ago. The lawns around the historical society and fire house had tents and events set up. Apples were sold in pies, fritters, and caramel, or just by the bag. Even slices of the pies in the contest were available for sale. For those who wanted more variety, there were burgers and hot dogs, egg salad and tuna salad. Traditional games were set up, like hula hoops, hoop rolling (pushing a wooden circle along the ground with a stick), croquet and bowling. There were several re-enactors in 19 th century dress or Civil –Photos by Chris Lundy War uniforms milling about.

By Daniel Nee here’s both good news and reason for concern when it comes to wildlife in southern Ocean County. It has been an “excellent” breeding year for beach nesting birds, but increased traffic have put terrapins at risk on a local roadway. The birds and terrapins are both the subjects of projects for the Conserve Wildlife Foundation of New Jersey, which has had success with preservation programs statewide, and is adding more local partners in Ocean County. Its nesting bird program, which often focuses on Long Beach

For the 2016 nesting season, which peaked in August, there were 115 pairs of piping plovers statewide, up from 108 last year – the second consecutive increase after a record low 92 pairs were tracked in 2014. “The really good news is our productivity this year – close to a statewide record at 1.37 chicks fledged per pairs – puts us in (Turtles - See Page 14)

Townships and includes much of the forested area surrounding Roosevelt City which backs up to State land. It’s a property that we have known about for some time as portions of the property is one of the focused projects areas, the Forked River Mountains.” “The more recent proposed acquisition of the additional 70 plus acres will fill in some of the holdings we acquired in the Roosevelt City area and expand the green space there,” Villinger said. Villinger added that this area is a target for the Ocean County Natural Lands Trust Fund Program as well as many other conservation agencies including the State and non-profit groups such as the New Jersey Conservation Foundation. David J. McKeon, Planning Director for
the Ocean County Planning Department said the previous 1,760 acres acquisition was the largest purchase to date under the County’s Natural Lands Trust Program. It includes property in two townships, three watersheds and touched four state forests, parks and or fish and wildlife areas. “The unique thing about this acquisition is that it is not one contiguous property, but many lots throughout the Roosevelt City area,” McKeon said. McKeon said additional lots were offered for sale by the owner but “we only pursued the ones that were contiguous to structural management or Harry Wright Lake Park. Also, Roosevelt City has many ‘paper’ streets that will probably not be developed. Acquiring lots along paper streets makes it easier to vacate the streets and permanently preserve them as open space.” McKeon added that two professional appraisals were prepared by Ocean County
to value the named lots. “Because the lots were scattered, we insisted on a bulk discount since we were buying all of the lots at once. That bulk discount was the basis for the negotiated sale price of $873, 878.” Villinger said “acquiring private lots like these will enable us to vacate the paper streets (unimproved roads) and allow for better management of the property as whole unit.” McKeon said “the Forest Fire Service is very interested in this parcel. It is a prime location for a wildfire, being in public ownership enables them to reduce fuel loads there and protect the residential areas of Roosevelt City which are at risk.” The State Forest Service wants to perform controlled burning in this area to protect Roosevelt City against future wildfires. “It is much easier for the Fire Service to deal with one or two public owners then to have to secure agreements from private owners
as well. The Fire Service was very happy to see this acquisition and the previous one go through,” McKeon said. Once closed, the property will be managed in conjunction with the adjacent open space. “These properties are open to the public consistent with our Parks and Natural Lands Trust Fund rules for passive recreation such as hiking,” Villinger said. Villinger said the preservation of the tract also benefits the Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst . “We have partnered with them on a number of projects within a two mile radius of the base property in order to limit residential impacts which are typically considered an incompatible use to base operations. This partnership was enhanced through our Joint Land Use Study completed in 2009 which was sponsored by Ocean County and included partnerships from Burlington County and the Joint Base,” Villinger said.

Featured Letter Be A Candle That Lights The Way The last line of the first parag raph of the St ar Bangled Banner, “O’er the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave” should be the motivation for paying respect to our Flag. Some may question their freedom because of the actions of a few, but we are all bound by laws and judicial powers that prevail. Tr ue, we may have some rogue police, but should we turn our back on all those who do ser ve a nd protect, both military and civil, in all t y pes of st r ife? Isn’t it the braver y of ou r m i l it a r y t h at h a s kept ou r cou nt r y f ree from oppressors? Police departments throughout the nation are on call 24 hours a day. Police of any color are a welcome sight when the call for h el p i s s o u n d e d . L e t us not judge all by the mistakes, and prejudice, of a few. All society has some inequity in the way laws are enforced. Some see enforcement of laws as b ei ng t he fo ot of t yrants on their back, but i n many com mu n it ies
it is law en forcement that protects the most vulnerable. Should society blame all police for the transgressions of a few? Should we blame e nt i r e bl a ck c o m mu nities for the sins of a few? Or, should we all stand up and try to right perceived wrongs? The K n ig ht s of Colu mbu s have as their motto, “It is bet t e r t o l ig ht one ca nd le, t ha n to cu r se the darkness.” Let all of us be the “candle that lights the way,” by working within the system without denigrating the work done by those who do a difficult job, under trying conditions, both military and civil. Rather than stok ing the fires of discontent, b e c o m e a n a d vo c a t e for prioritizing family and civil values to all you may touch or reach. Blatantly showing disrespect for our nation’s symbols will not only tarnish your name, but also besmirch our nation’s icons. Charles L. Frattini Manchester Twp. Councilman

Letters To The Editor Shouldn’t Be Too Proud It’s taken me over a month to get past the shock of reading just part of your article entitled “Local Comic Back on America’s Got Talent” on the front of your August 13th issue. So, this comedian “dropped the f-bomb on stage,” representing Whiting, and a letter is written on behalf of the Mayor saying “we are thrilled,” and “we are proud,” and “we are behind you every step of the way,” to this individual? Your article goes on to have the Mayor encouraging our local comic just as he would “one of our graduating high school students off to tackle the world.” Having thought about this a lot, it makes me wonder if the Mayor would write a letter of praise to any high school student who dropped the f-bomb while giving a speech during his or her graduation, or while applying for a job? While happy to see someone local on national TV, I’m disappointed in the Mayor for giving his blessing to this behavior. As for “America’s Got Talent,” I never watched it before and I certainly don’t intend to start watching it when Whiting is represented in this way. Chet Jelinski Whiting
Refused To Serve Last night, I watched Donald Tr ump tell why he thought he should be Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces.
As I watched, I could not help but contrast his military experience with my ow n. Don ny a nd I graduated high school in the same month. He spent that summer having a good time, getting his first deferment. I spent that summer, like thousands of others, in basic training. While Donny was enjoying his second semester of college, my brother in law was killed in Vietnam. I was in Georgia, learning to be an operating room assistant. When Donny received his second deferment, I was at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, helping to deal with the hundreds of casualties of the war our country was fighting. When Donny got his third deferment, I was overseas. When he got his fourth deferment, I was just out of the Army and looking for a job, and struggling with PTSD. Donny graduated college that year. With his degree, if he had accepted his fifth call to serve his country, would likely have been put in the Finance Corps, and would have served his entire term of service at Fort Benjamin Harris, signing checks. Donny, instead, wrangled a fifth deferment. So, my question is, should the Commander in Chief be a coward who thought he was too good to serve, even as a payroll clerk? A man who calls those who did serve, “losers,” a man whose military service is less than that of a WAC, – should this man, who re-

Support Hagler For Commissioner A lifelong resident of Long Beach Island, I am thrilled to learn that Danielle Hagler, a young woman who I’ve known for over 30 years, is now a candidate running for Commissioner of Long Beach Township. In the many years I’ve known Danielle, I have found her to be an intelligent, highly motivated, honest, ethical, successful, kind and allaround great person. Danielle has an abundance of experience in leadership and in years of bringing people together to improve their lives. She is a graduate of Southern Regional, Coastal Carolina University and holds a Master’s Degree from the London School of Economics and Political Science. Danielle’s success in all areas of employment (Hagler’s Marina, several positions in the Fulbright Commission) as well as her community involvement (Coastal Volunteers in Medicine), show that Danielle has the spirit and attitude that it takes to represent the residents of Long Beach Township both impartially and successfully. Knowing that she is one of very few women to run for the Board of Commissioners for Long Beach Township, I couldn’t be more hopeful or excited for my friends/ neighbors who live in the Township and who have the opportunity to elect Danielle. While we all are aware of the high concentration of women business owners/operators in the Township, having Danielle on the Board of commissioners will provide an impartial, yet highly experienced voice for the men and women of Long Beach Township. Danielle and her husband have a vested interest in keeping Long Beach Township a hometown commu-
nity, one in which to reside and raise their newborn daughter. Although I reside in Barnegat Light, I take an interest in what is happening in each of the towns of the Island as one aspect or another will surely impact me. It’s my belief that Danielle Hagler will serve the residents of Long Beach Township well, and that she is the type of person needed to lead the Township community in the right direction. I fully support Danielle and her team because they represent what our Island community needs most. Becky Tarditi Barnegat Light
Lenape Homeland We’ve all heard place names like Man hattan, Hoboken, Rumson, Navesink and Manasquan. What few know is that these are all Lenape words, the language of the native people of New Jersey, along with Delaware, and the NYC-Philly metro areas. But in the region, there isn’t a single federally recognized Lenape reservation. Looking deeper into the history reveals broken treaties, broken promises, genocide, and forced exile. Lenape survivors were forced under duress to Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Ontario. The maltreatment and murder of Lenape is the dirty secret of New Jersey history. One that most ignore entirely, or heavily whitewash. The Lenape were promised their own sovereign state in New Jersey for fighting the British during the American Revolution. The government lied. They proceeded to kick out the survivors from their land, with a mere $1,000 Spanish Dollar payment under duress. End this genocide, fraud, and apartheid. Give Lenapehoking back to the Lenape, stop the fraud of New Jersey, and tell Chris Christie the Governor isn’t wearing any clothes. Eric Hafner Toms River

Brandis as Lacey High School principal and Craig Wigley as superintendent for the district, who step into those spots for the 2016-17 school year. Brandis said he has been in education for 16 years. He started out as a social studies teacher, and then spent 10 years as a high school administrator. “As a proud alumnus of Lacey Township High School, it is my honor to be appointed principal,” Brandis said. “The Lacey Township School District has many deep rooted traditions. As an administrative leader, I will have the remarkable opportunity to continue those traditions by promoting Lacey Pride; a pride that will be felt by our students and celebrated throughout the community.” There are several new items being encountered by the students this year, he said. One of them is a full-year class called College and Career Readiness. It will teach students how to use critical thinking skills to better prepare them for life after high school. It will be offered to students based on attributes like past academic performance, teacher recommendation, standardized test scores, and attendance. There is something else that is new that students will be able to see. Sixty spots were painted in the senior parking lot as a fundraiser, bringing together students, staff and members of the community. However, it was vandalized. As a result, “we held an additional event, and it was even more successful with the repainting of spots and additional seniors joining the fundraiser,” he said.
The Southern Ocean Times, October 1, 2016, Page 7 Over the summer, more than 30 staff members volunteered their time, serving on committees to better academic programs and policies, he added. Craig Wigley starts the 2016-2017 school year as his first year as superintendent. He had been assistant principal at Atlantic County Special Services School District for one year and at Rancocas Valley Regional High School for five years. Then, he was a principal at Northern Burlington County Regional High School for four years and director of secondary education at Hamilton Township Public Schools for a year. Wigley said that he has been thoroughly impressed with the dedication shown by the staff and community since arriving here. “My focus and effort will be on improving what is already good and working well in our schools,” he said. “The administration and staff have made it quite clear we are ready to work together to improve climate and culture, which in turn will impact student achievement.” Academically, the district will be seeing some new curriculum. ReadyGen ELA is a language arts program that, according to its publisher, Pearson, focuses on reading, writing, speaking and listening in K-5 students. EnVision Math 2.0, also by Pearson, uses problem-based instruction, visual learning, small group work and personalizing problems to reach students. “The district is excited to have the two comprehensive curriculum programs in place this year. We look forward to positive gains in student achievement as a result,” Wigley said. “The middle and high school continue to expand the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) program and increase participation at both levels.”

GLAUCOMA STEM-CELL TREATMENT
Glaucoma is an eye disease associated with increased inner-eye (“intraocular”) pressure, which can damage the optic nerve and cause irreversible blindness if left untreated. The most important step in preventing glaucoma-related vision loss is to get a professional diagnosis by undergoing regular comprehensive eye exams. Otherwise, people suffering from glaucoma may not even realize that they have the disease, which often does not present early obvious symptoms until it is too late to preserve vision. Once detected, glaucoma can be addressed with any number of treatments designed to lower intraocular pressure. Researchers are also currently experimenting with transforming stem cells derived from human skin cells into “retinal ganglion cells,” which may be used to develop new future treatments. Today’s informative column on the subject of advances made in the field of treating glaucoma has been brought to you in the interest of better eye health. We are a complete eye care facility. From surgery to regular eye exams, we offer the best care. Let us at SUSSKIND & ALMALLAH EYE ASSOCIATES, P.A., help you determine what is best for your situation.

LACEY – The Lacey Township Police Department announced the creation of a new Police Explorer Post No. 151. The Police Explorer program is run through the Boy Scouts of America Learning for Life program. The program is designed to provide exciting and challenging training along with “on-the-job” experience for young adults who may be interested in a career in law enforcement. Police Explorers participate in many phases of police work, but are not placed in dangerous law enforcement situations. The Police Explorer program is an excellent way to become involved with our community while learning about a possible career in law enforcement. Several Law Enforcement Officers began their careers in law enforcement as police explorers. The Lacey Township Police Department opened up the initial application period on September 15. Police Explorer positions will be filled on a first come, first served basis, upon the successful completion of the background investigations. Lacey Police Explorer Post No. 151 is limited to 25 positions. The requirements include: Be 14 to 21 years of age (must enter the program prior to 18th birthday). Maintain at least a ‘C’ average in all school work through 12th grade. Pass a background investigation (criminal/ motor vehicle record). Complete an oral interview. Maintain outstanding moral and ethical char-

Lacey Elks Lodge Army Of Hope Picnic
LACEY – The Lacey Lodge No. 2518 of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks hosted the New Jersey State Elk’s Association (NJSEA) 12th annual Army of Hope picnic on September 11. The picnic took place on the grounds of the Veterans and Handicapped pavilion located on Elk’s Point. The yearly event is held to pay tribute and raise support for the families of our fallen heroes, our wounded warriors, and the brave members of the armed forces from New Jersey for their dedication and sacrifices in defending our freedoms. More than 1,400 people from across the state attended the picnic. Fallen heroes families, wounded warriors and their families, along with Elks and community members attended the event. The outpouring of support from Elk lodges throughout the state coupled with the generosity of the community allowed the Army of Hope committee to raise over $143,000. Over the past 12 years the committee has raised over $2 million for its charitable works. Also, the NJSEA Homeless Veteran’s Committee received over 76,000 towards helping homeless Veterans throughout the state, including a donation of $35,000 from the NJ State Elk’s Charities Inc. Committee. A hush fell over the crowd as guests were directed toward the field of flags as the roll call of fallen heroes was read aloud, recognizing the 151 names of the servicemen and women from throughout New Jersey who made the ultimate sacrifice. The reading of Heroes was followed by presentation of colors, “Taps”, the National Anthem, and Amazing Grace that was performed on bagpipe. A heart-rending moment occurred as a single folded ceremonial American Flag was placed upon the White Table, also known as the Missing Comrade Table, that was stationed within the Field of
Flags. The White Table is set in memory of our fallen, missing or captured servicemen and women who served our country. The featured guest speaker was Retired Major James Moran (USMC) who spoke of the sacrifices of the servicemen and women to whom we all owe our freedom. He also spoke of the commitment of the Elks organization and how he is very proud to see how Elks accomplish so much to help our Veterans and their families as a volunteer organization. Major Moran also spoke about the Bar-X Program, and went on to say how the Program reestablishes that special bond between soldiers that was forged during combat overseas, and how that bond is used to help encourage injured Veterans for success in the civilian world. Additional guest speakers included New Jersey Lt. Governor Kim Guadagno, who has a son in the Air Force, and spoke of the sacrifices of our servicemen and women who serve their country and how all of us owe them a great debt of gratitude for our freedom. Special Deputy Grand Exalted Ruler Malcolm J. McPherson Jr. and the NJSEA President Rich Bard also spoke during the event. Bard thanked the community, committee and Lacey Lodge for all of their help in making this a very successful event. Army of Hope Chairman, Brian Hopkins, also thanked all for their support. The picnic offered entertainment, barbeque food, and refreshments. Musical entertainment was provided by Jimmie and the Starlites and the Tri-Valley Brass Band. Thanks also to Anna Petrillo who wowed the house with her moving and stirring rendition of the Nation Anthem. Lacey Elks Lodge is located at 900 Beach Blvd., Forked River. For more information, call 609-693-1281.
Oyster Creek Explains Refueling Outrage
FORKED RIVER – Operators at Oyster Creek Generating Station removed the generator from service at 12:40 a.m. on September 19 to begin a planned refueling outage, following a strong, reliable summer run. During the outage, Exelon employees and supplemental workers performed maintenance activities and replace nearly one-third of the reactor’s fuel to keep the unit running safely and efficiently for another two-year cycle. To support this work, the station will use more than 1,000 additional workers, many of whom travel to Oyster Creek from outside the area. For several weeks preceding and following the outage, the influx of workers provides a significant boost to the local economy. During the outage, technicians will also complete testing, maintenance and modifications that can only be done when the station is not generating electricity. “Our refueling outage allows us to perform important maintenance that will ensure Oyster
Creek continues to operate safely and reliably, so that when temperatures soar like they did this summer, or plummet like they will in the winter, residents’ important energy needs are met,” said Site Vice President Garey L. Stathes. “As always, we will complete our outage tasks with a focus on excellence and a commitment to safety and environmental stewardship.” This summer, when New Jersey saw some of its highest temperatures on record, Oyster Creek operated at greater than 95.7 percent capacity during June, July and August, ensuring consistent reliable power to the region. Exelon Generation previously announced that Oyster Creek will close in 2019. Its final refueling outage is planned for 2018. Oyster Creek is located about 60 miles east of Philadelphia in Ocean County. The plant produces 636 net megawatts of electricity at full power, enough electricity to supply 600,000 typical homes, the equivalent to all homes in Monmouth and Ocean counties combined.

Forsythe Refuge Announces Project
GALLOWAY – The Forsythe Refuge began the last phase of construction at the Wildlife Drive Impoundment System at Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge. These projects will give managers the ability to better manage the site and plan for the future. During construction, which will potentially occur through December 2016, there will be temporary, partial or complete closures of the Wildlife Drive. Currently, the Drive is open to two-way traffic up to Turtle Cove and Gull Pond on weekdays after 4:30 pm and on weekends. The Refuge will post other closure updates to our website and Facebook page if the schedule varies. This project will include re-construction of the Long Dike, which bisects the western freshwater pool in the system, complete replacement of the water control structure in the northeast corner, and re-capping of the entire diked portion of the Wildlife Drive with crushed concrete. It has been nearly four years since Hurricane Sandy made landfall in New Jersey, but its effects are still felt here at the Refuge and statewide. Hurricane Sandy
significantly impacted the Wildlife Drive system and required emergency repairs to maintain its integrity. Since then, staff have been hard at work planning and implementing projects to restore our Refuge and make it more resilient to future storms. The Wildlife Drive Impoundment System was constructed in the early 1950s to meet the habitat needs of migratory birds (e.g., waterfowl, shorebirds, and wading birds). The approximately 1,500 acre system consists primarily of Lily Lake, Doughty Creek, Northwest Pool, Southwest Pool, and East Pool. The exterior impoundment dike, Wildlife Drive, receives over 100,000 visitors annually. The mission of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is working with others to conserve, protect and enhance fish, wildlife, plants and their habitats for the continuing benefit of the American people. We are both a leader and trusted partner in fish and wildlife conservation, known for our scientific excellence, stewardship of lands and natural resources, dedicated professionals and commitment to public service.

the position to continue our population increase,” said Pover. The increased numbers mean the plover population could produce new breeding pairs in the next few years, Pover said. The population of Least ter ns and black skimmers were good this year in Holgate, one of the largest colonies of the species in the state, and made up for a downturn in population in Monmouth County. Though the numbers are difficult to track due to their tendency to nest deep in marshlands, signs indicate the American oystercatcher population is also doing well, Pover said. While the nesting bird population is increasing, the foundation is also working on protecting the northern diamondback terrapin population along Great Bay Boulevard – also known as Seven Bridges Road – in Tuckerton. “Unfortunately, Great Bay Boulevard lacks a formal speed limit and mortality rates as a result of vehicle collisions are just one of the dangers the terrapin face,” said Corrine Henn, communications coordinator for Conserve Wildlife. Hundreds of terrapins cross the road each year looking for suitable nesting sites in the marshes on either side, Henn said. “From what I’ve seen and experienced from the beginning of this project is that many more people are more aware of terrapins on the road,” said Habitat
Program Manager, Ben Wurst. “It is critical to have the support of the local community as they are the ones who frequent the area the most and can really play a huge role in their long term conservation.” I n re cent mont h s, t he G reat Bay Terrapin Project has seen success in combatting kill rates along the road. The organization has started tracking and “notching” terrapins so they can be recaptured to ensure their health. The project has also led to new signs being posted along the road and fencing installed on busy sections to prevent the terrapins from crossing. There has also been an effort by volunteers to physically look after the species. “Our volunteers conduct road patrols to collect data on terrapins that are encountered on road and also help ensure that they cross safely,” said Henn. This summer, the project received a boost from Absolutely Fish, an aquarium maintenance company that also has an education and conservation mission. The company donated $5,000 to keep the preservation effort alive. The money was raised after the company hosted a live terrapin in their store. “People come into the store specifically to see her and are generally much more willing to help, donate, or take information when we have a terrapin in store,” said Jennifer Ruivo of Absolutely Fish. The full tally of the area’s terrapin population is expected to be announced this fall.

prizes earned $20. According to the society, there were two sets of winners. In the adult category, the winners were: First place, Hilif Crestions; second place, Patricia Gabriele; third place, Anna Ignaccolo. In the teen category, the winners were all from Lacey Township High School: first place, Ashlyn Lanik and Madison Considine, a team; second place, Jamie Kazenmayer and Marissa Simoncini, a team; and third place, Lulu Depinto. The event is the only fundraiser for the Lacey Township Historical Society, said its treasurer, Eleanor Ditton. The funds raised will go toward the upkeep of the museum, historical programs and scholarships. The historical society wasn’t the only civic
group in attendance. The Lacey Food Bank, scouts, Lacey EMS and Lacey Township Fire Department, Lacey Soccer and Save Barnegat Bay also had tables set up. There was a line to get on to the fire truck and take it for a ride around town. Kali Stuhler, 3, had been on the fire truck earlier. “I just pulled the rope,” she said, to make the horn blow. She was painting pumpkins but had just had her own face painted, a smiling sun on her cheek. “It’s a sun for the beach.” Naomi Stuart brought her family to the event. Originally from Bayville, she now lives in Lacey. “We come to this every year. This is a family tradition.” She was there with her son, Joshua. She was with Gabby Thompson, who had brought Kinley to her first apple festival, since she just turned 1 year old. Her son, Connor, was 4, and had been to two or three of these already.

HERE’S TO YOUR HEALTH Dr. Izzy’s Sound News Presented By: Isidore Kirsh, Ph.D., F.A.A.A. (N.J. Lic. #678)
Dr. Isidore Kirsh Ph.D., F.A.A.A.
Elbow Up For some folks, inserting your hearing aid into your ear can be a real struggle. Sometimes you twist and turn the hearing aid which eventually creates a sore ear. Here are a few tricks you can utilize to properly insert your hearing instrument into your ear canal. First, for custom, non-behind-the-ear products, the “red” writing on the aid is for the right ear and the “blue” writing is for the left ear. Second, when you are inserting the aid, the “vent hole” is usually on the bottom of the aid facing outside.
Third, as you are trying to insert the instrument, make sure your elbow is “up” in line with your ear and push toward your nose. If your elbow is down, you may not insert the aid in the right direction. Thus, the aid may “stick” out of your ear and constantly ring. Remember, if you are struggling with hearing aid insertion, keep your elbow up while inserting the aid. This will make life a lot simpler and alleviate potential ear soreness and feedback. Finally, make sure you keep in close contact with your hearing healthcare professional who is there for guidance.
Dr. Izzy and his staff are always available to answer most of your questions regarding your hearing health. His offices are in Toms River, Whiting, and Manahawkin. He can be reached at 732-818-3610 or via Web site at gardenstatehearing.com.
National Childhood Obesity Month – A Major Public Health Problem OCEAN COUNTY – “About 1 of every 5 children in the United States is obese or overweight and certain groups of children are more affected than others,” stated Ocean County Freeholder Deputy Director Gerry P. Little, Liaison to the Ocean County Board of Health. “We realize there is no simple solution; National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month provides an opportunity for learning about ways to prevent and address this serious health concern.” Daniel Regenye, Ocean County Health Department (OCHD) Public Health Coordinator, said, “Children who are overweight or obese as preschoolers are 5 times more likely as normal-weight children to be overweight or obese as adults. This can lead to lifelong physical and mental health problems, including diabetes and increased risk of certain cancers.” Regenye continued, “Childhood obesity is influenced by many factors. For some children and families, factors include too much time spent in sedentary activities such as television viewing; a lack of bedtime routine leading to too little sleep; a lack of community places to get adequate physical activity; easy access to inexpensive, high calorie snacks and beverages; and/or a lack of access to affordable,
healthier foods. Another issue obese children face is bullying and the stigma of being obese.” Some ways parents can help prevent obesity and support healthy growth in their children are: Make sure children get adequate sleep, follow recommendations on daily screen (TV, computers) time, and eat the right amount of calories. Parents can substitute higher nutrient, lower calorie foods such as fruit and vegetables in place of foods with higher-calorie ingredients, such as added sugars and solid fats. Parents can ensure access to water as a no-calorie alternative to sugar-sweetened beverages. Parents can help children get the recommended amount of physical activity each day by encouraging them to participate in activities that are age-appropriate and enjoyable. There are a variety of age appropriate aerobic and muscle and bone strengthening activities that kids can do. The Ocean County Health Department offers programs on obesity, nutrition and physical activity for schools, parents and the community.

HERE’S TO YOUR HEALTH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
This is How you Feed your Brain By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
The biggest fear that older people face is Alzheimer’s disease, where memory and cognition begin to fade. I recently reviewed a client’s list of medications and he was taking two drugs to preserve brain function, Aricept and Namenda. These drugs are useful to some degree, but I feel that there are foods, spices and herbs in your own kitchen that go a long way to preserve cognitive function, stabilize mood and lower levels of anxiety. I absolutely love spices that heal, so much so that I have a free ebook “Spices that Heal” which you can download right now at my website suzycohen.com. This ebook talks about spices that heal all kinds of conditions. Now, here is how you properly feed your brain: Put hemp seeds in your salad. Hulled hemp seeds put healthy fats into your body, and offset the bad fats typical of an American diet. Hemp seeds have practically no THC, the psychoactive compound found in marijuana. They have a perfect 3:1 ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 fatty acids. Put a tablespoon (daily) on your salad, scrambled eggs or roasted vegetables. Sprinkle my recipe for Brainpower Season Salt. Mix together the following 6 seasonings in equal amounts and put into an empty salt shaker. Sprinkle as desired: Rosemary, powdered gotu kola (get from an apothecary), himalayan salt, onion powder, powdered garlic (not garlic salt) and powdered turmeric. Eat mushrooms. I’m not talking Portabellos, I’m referring to Lion’s Mane
which gives us the active ingredient of Hericium erinaceus. Lion’s Mane is sold as a dietary supplement, and known for its potent neuroregenerative powers. I buy the real mushrooms in the fresh produce section and butter sauté them with Brussels sprouts and garlic. Lion’s Mane is a neurotrophic so my pick for you if you have any kind of brain damage from anything (trauma, benzos, mold, etc). Drink Juice. We all think of antioxidants as a dietary supplement, like Vitamin C, for example. Citrus juice is a great source of natural vitamin C so a few ounces of orange juice would provide natural C which helps you make dopamine, serotonin and other neurotransmitters that a healthy brain requires. Eat Foliage. By foilage, I mean salads and greens to give you folate, the natural form of the synthetic vitamin “folic acid.” Leafy greens like kale, spinach, broccoli, Swiss chard and lettuce have a lot of folate. Greens also provide powerful antioxidants so eat something green every day. I recommend you cook cruciferous vegetables in order to reduce goitrogens. Obviously you don’t cook the lettuce. Say yes when they offer black pepper. The servers will often ask if you want black pepper on your salad at restaurants. Say yes next time because piperine, the primary component of black pepper slows the breakdown of serotoin and raises other feel-good endorphins. Studies are ongoing for black pepper’s role in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease.

Inside The Law Is Rental Insurance Necessary?
Pasta – Steaks – Seafood Robert C. Shea Esq.
By: Robert Shea and Michael Deem of R.C. Shea & Associates
Strictly speaking, a lessee–you–is not required to pay the rental company additional money to insure their rented vehicle in the event the lessee is involved in a collision. New Jersey requires that all rental agencies provide liability coverage for lessees in the sum of $15,000.00 per person for bodily injury or death, $30,000.00 for bodily injury or death of all persons in one accident and $5,000.00 for property damage arising out of the negligent maintenance, use or operation of the rental vehicle upon public highways. In New Jersey, every owner or registrant of a vehicle must maintain certain statutorily minimum coverage for bodily injury, death and property damage. A lessor, such as Avis or Enterprise, is the owner of the rental vehicle(s), therefore they are legally responsible for maintaining the statutorily minimum insurance on their vehicles. An insurer’s policy that attempts to exclude
At Key Harbor Marina
you (the lessee) from coverage is not enforceable. A rental company cannot take away your statutory rights. Michael J. Deem Esq. In addition, your personal automobile insurance policy will act as excess insurance in the event you injure someone or damage their property as a result of the negligent maintenance, use or operation of the rental vehicle upon public highways. If you choose to pay the rental company extra money for their insurance then ask them what it is you are purchasing? If they are legally required to provide you with basic liability coverage are you then purchasing excess insurance? If so how much additional insurance are you purchasing?

Dear Joel My wife and I are both retired. I am writing because she may see this and realize that it’s her that I am referring to. Our house is filthy and disgusting. I can no longer look in the refrigerator. Our stove hasn’t been cleaned in months and the bathroom equally as dirty. Any suggestions as to how to change her? Answer: My suggestion is (as always) stop trying to change her and work on yourself. I see nothing in your letter that makes me feel that you are incapable of doing some housework. Too often people can help
situations but find it easier to blame others. Perhaps if your wife sees that you care enough to do the cleaning, she will follow suit. If my suggestion doesn’t fit, many people hire people to do the cleaning for them. If that is all that’s wrong in your home, consider yourself lucky. It’s not a heavy lift.

What Is The Link Between Being Over-Weight and Joint Pain? By Joseph Moscogiuri, DPT, Forked River Location
M
any times patients come through the door at All-Care with complaints of pain and discomfort in their hips and knees and have prescriptions for osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis (OA) is defined as degeneration of joint cartilage and bone, which in turn leads to pain and stiffness. OA can be due to many causes, but one cause that is often over looked is a patient’s weight. Many of our joints in our body, such as our hips and knees, act as weight bearing structures, and are designed to withstand normal stressors placed on them such as walking. However, research has shown that the stress placed on these weight bearing joints is increased with every extra pound you may weigh. Let’s take the knee for example, it has been shown that for every extra pound someone weighs, the stress on their knees is increased by about 4 pounds. So if something is just 10 pounds over-weight that increases the stress on the knees by about 40 extra pounds. For someone that is 100 pounds over-weight, the stress is increased to about
considered healthy, while a BMI of 25-29.9 is considered overweight, and a BMI of >30 is considered obese. You can refer to the chart provided to get an estimate of your current BMI.
HOW CAN WE HELP YOU?
400 pounds! All that increased pressure can lead to rapid break down of the joint, thus causing pain and stiffness and restricting you from doing the things you love.
HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOU’RE OVER-WEIGHT?
An easy way to check whether you are over-weight is to calculate your BMI. Your BMI stands for Body Mass Index, and is a quick screening tool which is a measure of body fat, based on your weight in relation to your height. Typically a BMI that is < 18.5 is underweight, BMI ranging from 18.5-24.9 is
One of the best ways to lose weight is through diet and exercise. It is recommended that you get at least 30 minutes of moderate intensity exercise per day, as well as cut back on dietary fats and total calories. However, it is difficult to exercise when pain and stiffness within your joints may restrict you. Physical therapist can use a number of manual therapy and soft tissue techniques in conjunction with modalities such as ice, heat, electrical stimulation, and ultrasound to help alleviate joint point. Once pain has subsided, a physical therapist can instruct you on appropriate and safe physical exercises which help combat the effects of OA. Stop in today at one of our nearest All-Care facilities to see what our knowledgeable and well trained therapist can do for you, and experience the All-Care difference.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast
For the week of October 1-OCTOBER 7
By Jeraldine Saunders
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Take your medicine even if you don’t like the taste. Someone may be right, but this might not win your affection. Keep accurate financial records this week as they may come in handy. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You may meet those who display kindness and warmth when you’re feeling as cold as ice. In the week to come you may find it difficult to avoid being reserved during social occasions. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You could be confused by conflicting causes this week. Put a puzzling problem aside until you can get advice from a wise friend. Get caught up with a backlog of essential tasks. CANCER (June 21-July 22): You might be better off staying put than taking off. In the week ahead spend time on organization. This will help you achieve a closer rapport with family or improve your surroundings. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Take it for granted that your wishes will be granted. As this week unfolds you might realize that whatever transpires, even if it slows you down, will have been in your best interests. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Make it your business to be a whiz at business. There may be an opportunity to improve your income flow in the week to come or the desire to put a home based activity into motion.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You know what they say about all work and no play. In the week ahead your business instincts could sometimes be off base. Avoid buying something just because it is a good deal or on sale. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t wheel and deal with too much zeal. Hold onto every penny that you deserve to keep in the week ahead. Don’t use questionable tactics that lie in the gray area of ethical behavior. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Be grateful for the talents you possess. Just because others are more successful in some areas does not diminish your gifts in others. Focus on being at your best this week. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A relationship may need extra rations of respect. When you have become familiar with someone it tempting to take them for granted. In the week ahead remember “please” and “thank you.” AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Live life logically. You may meet people in the week ahead who can illuminate your thinking processes. Focus on making some fascinating new friends and participate in group activities. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A square peg can’t fit in a round hole. You may find that you don’t quite fit into a new group. In the beginning of the week be cautious about signing contracts or listening to gossip.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen Pan-Roasted Chicken Shows How Recipes Can Evolve With Time By Wolfgang Puck
It seems to me sometimes that too many people treat recipes like scientific formulas to be followed precisely. But that isn’t how I love to cook, or how I hope fans of my cookbooks or online cooking school will treat my recipes. Great recipes are living things. Most of them can be changed in an instant, based on what’s in season or good in the market, how ingredients are responding as you cook them, and whatever whim might strike you. That’s certainly how I like to cook, especially at home. And I’ve been thinking about that a lot lately while looking at my recipe for pan-roasted chicken with a sauce of port and whole-grain mustard, and seeing how it has evolved over the years. When I fi rst started making and serving this recipe more than two decades ago, it featured butterflied chicken - that is a whole bird from which the backbone was cut out before the chicken was spread out and f lattened. I browned the chicken skin-down in an ovenproof skillet, fi nished cooking it skin-up in the oven, and prepared a pan sauce with port wine, cream, two kinds of mustard, and fresh herbs. Today, however, the dish as I make it is noticeably different. First of all, I take the extra step of removing most of the bones from the chicken - a fairly simple process I describe in the recipe that follows, though you could also ask the poultry department of a good supermarket to do it for you. The result is poultry that is easier and neater to eat, which I know the guests in my restaurants prefer. As for the recipe’s popular sauce, I’ve also made significant changes. Most noticeably, I use a higher proportion of port and chicken stock, reducing them more to intensify the sauce’s overall fl avor before I add the two kinds of mustard. More importantly, I also use proportionately less cream than I used to, a reflection of the fact to health-conscious eaters everywhere are trying to cut back on the fat they consume. And, a favorite secret of mine when cooking at home, I stir into the sauce a touch of bottled barbecue sauce or Chinese hoisin sauce, which enhances the results in the same way that glace de viande (literally, “meat glaze”), a greatly concentrated veal stock, often does in classic French restaurants. All of those small changes add up to a big difference in a recipe that I hope will become one of your own standbys, as it is mine. And I hope you, like I still do, will continue to consider this and many other recipes delicious works in progress.
BONELESS PAN-ROASTED CHICKEN WITH PORT & WHOLE-GRAIN MUSTARD SAUCE Serves 4 2 whole organic chickens, 2 1/2 to 3 pounds (1.25 to 1.5 kg) each Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 cups (500 mL) port wine 2 cups (500 mL) good-quality canned chicken stock or broth 2 tablespoons bottled tomato-based barbecue sauce or hoisin sauce 4 tablespoons heavy cream 1 heaping teaspoon Dijon mustard 1 heaping teaspoon Meaux (whole-grain) mustard 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon 1 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives Starting alongside each chicken’s breastbone and following the ribcage, use a sharp knife to cut the meat away from the bones on each side; cut through the leg joints. Trim off the wings, leaving the drumettes attached. Cut out the leg bones to produce 2 boned halves from each chicken. Preheat the oven to 400 F (200 C). Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Over high heat, heat the oil in a heavy ovenproof frying pan large enough to hold the chicken. Carefully add the chicken skin-down. Sear undisturbed until the skin is golden, about 8 minutes. Transfer to the oven and roast skin down until the skin is deep golden brown and the chicken is cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes. Return the pan to the stovetop, turn the chicken skin up, and sear over high heat 1 to 2 minutes longer. Transfer the chicken to a platter and keep warm. Pour off the fat from the skillet. Add the port and swirl over high heat, stirring and scraping with a wooden spoon as needed, to deglaze the pan. Add the stock. Simmer briskly until reduced by about two thirds. Stir in the barbecue sauce or hoisin. Stir in the cream, bring back to a boil, and continue simmering briskly, stirring, until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the mustards. Return the chicken to the pan along with any juices that have collected. Over low heat, turn the chicken to coat with the sauce and warm it brief ly. Serve with your choice of sides, garnishing the chicken with fresh herbs and the port/ mustard sauce.
