Dinner And Auction Raise Funds For Vets Memorial

–Photo by Jennifer Peacock Veterans from all branches were asked to go up to the dance floor when their respective branch anthem was played. They and the guests sang God Bless America once assembled.

By Jennifer Peacock JACKSON – More than 250 people gathered at the AMVETS on Toms River Road on October 15 to honor all veterans while raising funds for a memorial doing the same.

The Veterans Memorial Garden held its third annual dinner, dance, and auction to raise money for the memorial that sits at Commodore Boulevard and Jackson Mills Road. The memorial is unique in that it honors all, not just combat or killed, veterans.

With the help of family, friends, and local businesses, Charles Garofano and Kenneth Bressi hosted the evening, which featured door prizes, a gift auction, a buffet dinner and dessert, a DJ and dancing. One veteran (Dinner - See Page 6)

Fees Now Waived If You Sign Up For No-Knock Online

By Jennifer Peacock JACKSON – Some residents are out the buck, but homeowners interested in joining the township’s no-knock registry will likely have the $1 fee waived from now on.

The issue of the fee—which covered the cost of the envelope and postage to mail the no-knock decal to residents—came up when municipal clerk Ann Marie Eden announced the township upgraded its website to allow for residents to fill out and submit the no-knock form entirely online.

Residents previously could download the form, fill out the applicable information, and either mail or drop off the form. The decals were free to pick up from the clerk’s office. Only those who had it mailed had to pay the $1 fee.

Despite that upgrade, the township didn’t have a system for residents to pay that fee online. Eden asked the council to consider waiving that fee.

The new wording to the township code, which is up for a final vote on October 25, will waive the fee for all homeowners seeking to join the no-knock list. The first decal is free for everyone.

All previously issued decals are in full effect, officials said.

Questions Raised About Drinking Water Safety

By Jennifer Peacock and Catherine Galioto OCEAN COUNTY – He walks Manchester town hall with a cup in his hand. It’s not filled with electrolyte-infused designer water or Hawaiian volcanic water or even the water bottled in Maine.

No, Manchester Public Works director Al Yodakis fills his cup from the municipal water fountains that dot town hall’s hallways.

The town’s water is safe, officials said.

Resident Hank Glen asked officials about a report circulating that the township’s wa-

ter supply is tainted with Chromium-6, or hexavalent chromium, which the National Toxicology Program reports is carcinogenic when ingested.

The report conducted by the Environmental Working Group out of Washington, D.C., with an office in Oakland, Calif., showed that Chromium-6 is in the drinking water for more than 200 million Americans in all 50 states.

The Environmental Protection Agency ordered that local water utilities test for the

compound, and from 2013 to 2015 more than 60,000 water samples were taken across the country. According to EWG, 75 percent of those samples tested positive for Chromium-6.

California, the place where Chromium-6 entered the national consciousness thanks to the Julia Roberts’ 2000 film Erin Brockovich, depicting the real-life battle of contamination in Hinkley, Calif., set the maximum acceptable level of the compound (Water - See Page 5)

The cost of the township covering the postage and envelopes will be negligible, council vice president Kenneth Bressi said.

“To the best of my knowledge, given the history, the cost will be negligible. But the value of making it easy and applying online is well worth it for the residents who wish for their quality of life, makes it worth it, at least in my opinion,” he said.

The change will take effect shortly after the ordinance’s second reading, passage and publication.

The registry has been around since 2008, but has been a focus of more talk in town since residents have complained about aggressive and unwanted solicitations, especially around the Lakewood/Jackson border.

Residents can add their home address to the master list, which solicitors, who must register with the town, must carry with them while in Jackson. The list, which was updated in January and July, is now updated monthly.

Solicitors may not contact anyone on the list. While the registry is called “noknock,” solicitors may not communicate with registrants on their property. The registry cannot prohibit phone calls or mailings, as those areas are out the council’s legal jurisdiction.

Homeowners can visit jacksontwpnj.net/ index.php/component/k2/item/185-application-for-no-knock-registry to download or fill out the no-knock registry application.

at 0.02 parts per billion. The EPA placed a limit of 0.1 milligrams per liter and up to 100 parts per billion for total chromium.

EWG said one part per billion is about a drop of water in an Olympic-size swimming pool.

“There’s only one state that has a limit [on Chromium-6], and they set their limit at 10 parts per billion,” councilman Craig Wallis said. “So we’re even lower than them. …

We’re so far below [the federal regulations], I’m not even sure why it became an issue.”

Manchester’s water supply was tested between August 19, 2014 and June 16, 2015.

According to EWG, the township averaged 0.99 parts per billion of the compound, with water samples showing a range of 0.0 to 0.18. Those numbers exceed what California scientists deemed negligible Chromium-6 intake but are well below what the EPA considers safe.

The environmental group said the figures were provided by Manchester Township, which has an eastern and western service area.

Only Pine Lake Park tested at 0.0.

“Others towns in Ocean County were listed.

We’re number one,” Glen said. “What is the township doing to try to alleviate chromium from the water?”

Yodakis said he was not familiar with the report or why it was prepared.

“I can’ comment to the validity of the report.

Our numbers in it were correct. As to why we have the highest levels in the county, I quite

honestly don’t know that that’s true. Maybe we do,” Yodakis said. “I can tell you that our levels are way under any EPA or DEP requirements. Chromium-6, the maximum level, is 100 parts per billion, which is a very small amount. We are 0.2 parts per billion. …Our water is safe. It’s meets all federal and state standards.”

Chromium-6 is classified as an “unregulated contaminant” under the EPA’s Safe Drinking Water Act, meaning the Act lacks any health-based standards for the contaminants. Other unregulated contaminants being tested for include chlorate, cobalt, strontium and vanadium.

According to the eastern service area’s 2015 report, Chromium-6 was found at 0.1 parts per billion, with an acceptable range of no trace to 0.3 parts per billion. The western service area’s 2015 report, as well as the Lacey Road Water System report, does not include any testing information for unregulated contaminants, though that area was likely not up for study under EPA guidelines.

The reports state that all federal and state drinking water standards were met.

Yodakis said the township continues to exam ways to clean contaminants from the water supply, but those options are very costly.

“As for right now, the drinking water is safe.

It meets all requirements,” he said.

According to the Agency for Toxic Substances & Disease Registry, “Electroplating, leather tanning, and textile industries release relatively large amounts of chromium in surface waters. Leaching from topsoil and rocks is the most important natural source of

chromium entry into bodies of water. Solid wastes from chromate-processing facilities, when disposed of improperly in landfills, can be sources of contamination for groundwater, where the chromium residence time might be several years.”

Yodakis said Manchester gets water from both deep and shallow wells. The deeper wells come from the Raritan aquafer and the shallow from the Cohansey. The main producing wells are the deep wells. He said there are no traces of Chromium-6 in the Raritan, where the majority of the township’s water comes from. The shallow wells from the Cohansey do have traces, he said.

He does not know why one has traces and the other doesn’t.

In its independent report released September 21, EWG showed the Chromium-6 levels in water tests, allowing site visitors to search via ZIP Code for their water supply’s levels.

Locally, the averages include: Barnegat Township Water and Sewer, 0.059 ppb; Beachwood, 0.07 ppb; Brick MUA, 0.009ppb; Jackson MUA, 0.042 ppb; Lacey MUA, 0.033 ppb.

Manchester Township Water Utility, 0.099 ppb average; Manchester Township Western Service area, 0.071 ppb average.

Stafford-Beach Haven West, 0.047 ppb; Ocean Twp. (Waretown) MUA, 0.083 ppb.

Regional water service areas, such as Suez, include: Aqua NJ Eastern, 0.085 ppb; NJ American Water Coastal North, 0.048; United Water (now Suez) Toms River, 0.072 ppb.

Opinion

Featured Letter

Voting Is Our Responsibility This is not a political challenge or attack, or trying to make a political point or statement!

It is a fervent plea to all Americans and it’s spoken from the heart, to the hearts of each American.

We, the people, are all very tired of all the political pettiness and annoyances and candidates attacking each other and the opposing party instead of telling us what we so desperately need to hear. How is anyone going to fix what is broken, instead of telling us it is not as broken as we know it is, in our country and all over the world. I think this speaks from and for the soul of America.

Hopefully, we all watch the news on TV, read the papers all over the world, or use the Internet. Whatever our tool of information and learning, we all, also, hopefully know the history and backgrounds of all our political candidates, the detailed scandals of the past that cannot be denied, pushed under the rug or lied away with smiles and promises.

We all know what we witness almost daily in our country and our world; it is not pretty, matter of fact it is a lot of hatred, violence, prejudice and just downright ugly and not the world we had hoped for our children and their children and the future, or the world most of us have grown up in. This is our collective heart. We wanted, want, and know we can do so much better.

Our decision in November is a difficult one but a crucial one.

But, we must all be able to look ourselves in the mirror that day and lay our heads on our pillows that night and feel in those hearts that we have made the best, most intelligent, informed decision of our lives. Our futures depend on it.

We should all hope and pray that we have each tried our best to be a part of the solution not a part of the ongoing problem.

We all need to use our right and privilege wisely, whether it be

to vote for our party’s candidate, the opposing party’s candidate or an independent voice of our own choosing. We must put our trust and faith in the voice we think, no, we feel will be the one who will lead our country to the full potential it was meant to be, to the greatness it should be, to be the beacon to the world as it has always been. Please don’t waste that right and privilege or feel it is a waste of time and not vote at all.

That would be the biggest disservice to the country, the world and inevitably to yourself. You cannot put your head in the sand and think that if you don’t vote you can say, “Well, I didn’t vote, so you can’t blame me.” Yes, we can and we will. Be a part of your own history.

We need to believe in ourselves again. To teach our children that all life matters and not that no lives matter as some of the world’s enemies believe.

We must all work hard to stop the hatred and the violence and the bloodshed we see almost daily in our country and our world, putting fear and doubt in the hearts of us and our children. Not just leave it to our leaders, either.

Please cast your ballot. Let your conscience be your guide. Let there be a smile in that mirror on that November day and let your head rest easily on your pillow that night. Please be grateful for that right and privilege and remember those who gave their all to ensure that right and privilege for all of us. It more than a right or a privilege–it is your responsibility.

You owe it to those who sacrificed the ultimate to ensure you that privilege and you owe it to your country and yourself to be your own hero.

God bless you, God bless us all and God bless and help America and the world and keep her safe, secure and sane. Our country, our world is counting on each and every American to do the right thing. Vote!

C ommentary Letters To The Editor

Is There Life Before Death?

Did you know? There is even a World Day for Farmed Animals. It’s observed fittingly on October 2 (Gandhi’s birthday). It’s intended to memorialize the tens of billions of animals abused and killed for food around the world.

My first instinct was to dismiss it. But, I wanted to understand the impact of my diet and my food dollars on others.

Recent undercover investigations showed male baby chicks suffocated in plastic garbage bags or ground to death, laying hens crowded into small wire cages, injured pigs killed by slamming their heads against the concrete floor, and cows skinned and dismembered while still conscious.

As theologians debate whether there is life after death, I wondered whether these animals have a life before death and why I should subsidize these barbaric practices.

I wonder no more, as I have now embraced a plant-based diet - green and yellow veggies, legumes, fruits, nuts, and some grains. Occasionally, I indulge in nutbased cheese or ice cream.

Although I was motivated

by compassion for animals, I have since learned that my diet is also great for my health and for the health of our planet.

Use Our Freedoms Each Election Day Apart and alone in the lobby of Manchester Town Hall is a ‘Chair of Honor’ flanked by the American and POW flags honoring our service men and women who never returned from the fields of combat. It stands there as a memento to their sacrifice.

Every day, visitors to this facility see this empty chair and are reminded of the 91,000 missing service men and women since WWI— all MIA’s.

They voted for our freedom to vote with their lives.

We, the survivors, should feel compelled to use that freedom every election day by casting our vote. In the voting booth, with just a flick of your finger you have fulfilled an obligation that was given to all of us by their spilt blood.

Troglodytic Misogyny Donald Trump unleashes a litany of loutish comments about women and then lightly dismisses them as mere “locker room” banter.

When I was a younger man I was active in several sports: football, basketball, and baseball. Consequently I spent a good deal of time in many different locker rooms.

I do not recall ever hearing language that even approached Trump’s for sheer crudity and troglodytic misogyny.

Real men do not talk that way Michael J Doherty Berkeley

Yet Another Article In yet another article about Mr. Trump’s behavior prior to his becoming a candidate for the presidency, it is nauseating to me; however, no more so than Mrs. Clinton’s husband who was impeached for a particular intern.

This intern whom I shall not name was not the only other woman in the former president’s life. According to people in Arkansas, Mr. Clinton while serving in public office there, began his philandering and before the public’s eye, he walked with his wife and daughter out of our White House - I remember that day vividly.

So if Mr. Trump is truly

repentant about past dallies, shouldn’t we base our vote on what he can do for the country now.

This is not to say I will or will not vote for Mr. Trump but isn’t this episode in his life like calling the kettle black while the pot is just as black. Ah yes, please let us all think about the future and which candidate would recommend a fair Supreme Court justice and more.

I look at the choices and for me, it’s not a pretty picture either way but I’m also tired of the Clintons who’ve been in Washington what seems like forever so I believe I’ll go with one of the other non-famous parties.

I do think Mr. Trump would put the right people in the right places but I, like many of you, am just sick and tired of this election... time will tell.

What Can 23 Cents Buy? On the state Legislature’s 23-cent gas tax increase along with a host of tax cuts, the increase in the gas tax revenue should enable a number of positive things to happen in New Jersey, but only if state leaders commit to the following: Manage the Transportation Trust Fund Responsibly.

Past management practices of the fund have allowed excessive borrowing and borrowing for short-term improvements. This has had the unfortunate result that all of the revenue going into the fund is now being used to pay debt service on projects that have already happened, leaving no funds for future projects. The Legislat u re and executive branch must resist the urge to approve a f lurry of new-capacity projects funded by new debt, and instead ensure that a majority of the new funding go toward a pay-as-you-go system for maintenance and repairs.

Ordinance Discussed In Light Of Lakewood Rental Incident

By Daniel Nee HOWELL – Elected officials appeared poised to move closer to adopting an ordinance requiring annual fire safety inspections for rental units in town, a measure that has spurred some uneasiness from landlords.

“You’re putting a burden on the renters and on the landlord,” said Ed Surgent, a property ownerin Howell. “Every single year, you’ve got to have someone come out there and inspect this. There are over 500 houses you have to do. You’ll have to hire another person, plus benefits.”

Surgent said the annual inspections, which come with an annual fee increase of $25 – up to $125 from $100 for a rental certificate – “discriminate against a certain group.”

“People don’t like, every year, having someone coming around,” Surgent said. “You have to call the landlord, they have to call the tenant, you’ve got to have somebody come out and look around. I don’t think it’s right.”

Township officials said there were a number of concerns raised by landlords, but ultimately the goal of the ordinance – which was introduced in August and will likely come up for a second vote in October – is aimed at ensuring conditions are safe for tenants.

“I definitely think it’s a quality of life issue and a severe safety issue,” said Howell Mayor William Gotto. “We’ve had a couple near misses in the town with fire protection issues relative to rental properties, and I absolutely think it’s something we need to move forward with.”

“I don’t have any objections to the basic idea, but the people who stood up had the very concerns that I did,” said Howell Coun-

cilwoman Pauline Smith. “The fee matters.”

“The average two bedroom rental in Howell Township is $1,500 a month ‑‑ that’s $18,000 a year,” replied Councilman Robert Walsh, saying during a discussion on the matter at a recent special meeting of the township council that $25 more a year is reasonable considering the high rental prices.

Surgent, however, said the inconvenience and potential intrusiveness of inspections was his main concern.

“The $25 increase, I can’t understand that. But the annual inspections are really pushing it. I think it’s a problem,” he said.

“If you did this with all the homeowners, you’d have an uproar – they wouldn’t want people coming around every single year.”

Surgent said many single family homes are in worse condition than rental units.

Township officials, however, said there have been issues in neighboring communities – namely, Lakewood – with overcrowding issues in rental units that could pose a safety risk if a fire were to break out. Earlier this year, about 20 men escaped a house fire in a residence there that was overpopulated. In Howell, officials said they have been unable to investigate rental conditions.

“Times are changing, and we know some of the e-mails we’ve gotten from some residents who are renting on the difficulties they’re having with the places they’re renting,” said Walsh. “And now, there’s no way for us to legally look into it.”

The township council was scheduled to meet on October 17, where a public hearing and second vote on the proposal was expected to take place.

GCU’s Critical Concerns 2016 Examines Women’s Education And Empowerment Worldwide

LAKEWOOD – Women’s global education and empowerment are among the many topics students, faculty, authors, and artists will explore during Georgian Court University’s Critical Concerns 2016 observance, held on campus now through November 11.

For the past decade, GCU has hosted Critical Concerns events reflecting the Sisters of Mercy’s critical concerns—the earth, immigration, nonviolence, racism, and women.

This year, more than a dozen GCU events focus on Women’s Voices in the Jubilee Year of Mercy, the theme selected by Georgian Court organizers.

“GCU faculty member Cynthia Ninivaggi, Ph.D., chaired the committee that worked for more than a year to develop this insightful and thought-provoking program,” said Evelyn Saul Quinn, GCU vice president for mission integration. “Critical Concerns 2016 features world-renowned authorities on the profound challenges women face today obtaining what many consider a fundamental right—an education. Participants will discover that many women throughout the world still have to fight

and even risk their lives just to obtain an education. This is true both in developing counties as well as right here in the United States.”

The observance of Critical Concerns 2016 is timely as it comes just weeks after the White House launched “Let Girls Learn,” its latest international advocacy initiative. Locally, GCU will explore related issues with the input of featured speakers, filmmakers, and educators, including: Mary Louise Miller, RSM, J.D., principal of The Sisters Academy of New Jersey in Asbury Park, will present on November 8, at 2 p.m.

Sister Mary Louise’s school is dedicated to educating girls from economically challenged families and providing them with the tools to gain access into and success in private high schools and universities. Sister Mary Louise will explore the components of a comprehensive education and its impact on women from a socioeconomically depressed environment.

GCU faculty will discuss Girl Rising, the thought-provoking film from Academy Award-nominated director Richard E. Robbins. The movie features nine unforgettable

girls living in developing countries who confronted tremendous challenges and overcame nearly impossible odds to pursue their dreams—film screening and discussion are slated for November 9 at 11:30 a.m.

Oren Rudavsky, producer/director of To Educate a Girl, will examine what it takes for a girl to obtain an education in Nepal and Uganda, two poverty-stricken countries guided by the United Nations’ global initiative to provide equal access to education for all girls.

To Educate a Girl will be screened at 6 p.m. and followed by a Q&A with Mr. Rudavsky at 7:30 p.m. on November 9.

Mary Mihelic will discuss her Running Girl series of paintings, inspired by the more than 50 Nigerian schoolgirls who made a split-second decision to run for their lives when Boko Haram terrorists attacked their school on April 14, 2014. Ms. Milhelic’s presentation will be held November 10 at 2 p.m. Her Running Girl artwork will be displayed at GCU from October 17 through November.

Jenny Nordberg, author of The Underground Girls of Kabul: In Search of Hidden

Jackson Relay For Life

Resistance in Afghanistan, will talk about her book exposing “bacha posh”—the practice of girls masquerading as boys for their entire childhood in order to escape being imprisoned at home and forbidden to attend school. Her presentation and book signing are scheduled for November 11 at 9:30 a.m.

“This year Critical Concerns will extend beyond our traditional weeklong program,” added Ms. Quinn, whose office is coordinating the events. “GCU, in conjunction with Ocean County College’s Grunin Center for the Performing Arts and the Ocean County Library, will jointly present Beyond the Classroom & Critical Concerns: Global Education for Women. Many of the above programs will be offered on both campuses.”

Numerous Critical Concerns 2016 programs will be offered by educators as well as GCU students. Most sessions are free and all are open to the public.

Learn more and register for individual events listed at bit.ly/GCU_CritcalConcerns or call the Office of Mission Integration at 732-9872303.

Centrastate: What To Know About New Developments In Alzheimer’s Disease And Dementia Treatment

By Joshua J. Raymond, MD FREEHOLD – The odds are that you know or will know someone who suffers from dementia. After all, an estimated 1 in 6 women, and 1 in 10 men who live past the age of 55 will develop dementia during their lifetime. This disease robs one’s quality of life during their golden years, causing non-reversible loss of memory, language, executive functioning, personality traits, and the ability to perform everyday activities.

Of these individuals, about 70 percent suffer from the most common and recognized type of dementia, namely A l z h e i m e r ’s d i s e a s e — a p r o g r e s s i v e form that destroys brain cells and slowly degenerates memory, thinking, behavior and basic bodily functions. The facts and figures related to Alzheimer’s are staggering. In 2016, there are about 5.4 million Americans living with Alzheimer’s and someone new in the U.S. develops the disease about every 66 seconds. In fact, today, it is recognized as the sixth leading cause of death among U.S. adults, killing more individuals than breast and prostate cancer combined. These numbers will only continue to rise with the aging of our U.S. population.

Yet, despite the visibility and impact,

there is no known cure for Alzheimer’s.

It is the only disease among the top 10 causes of death in America that cannot be cured. Still-emerging treatments, therapies and medications can at best delay the onset and progression and may help with cognitive and behavioral symptoms. But, as with all life-threatening diseases, hope remains eternal.

New Treatments And Drugs – Long Way To Go, But Progress Researchers continue to look for ways to alter the course of Alzheimer’s and improve the quality of life for those afflicted.

There are hundreds of clinical trials underway nationwide focused on Alzheimer’s.

Some of the first promising therapies in decades are coming to the fore, and such Alzheimer’s and related dementia research is critical. This is particularly true when you consider that new drugs take years to produce from concept to market.

In terms of medications, there truly is no reliable way to reverse dementia and Alzheimer’s. None of the pharmacologic treatments available today will stop the damage of brain neutrons that cause Alzheimer’s disease. However, about half of those patients who take the drugs have shown signs of slowing symptoms and have gained comfort, improved cognitive

functioning and restored dignity for a period of time.

There are few FDA-approved drugs to treat Alzheimer’s—acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (such as galantamine, rivastigmine and donepezil) for mild to moderate cases, and Namenda®, memantine prescribed for those with moderate to severe conditions. They help certain brain transmissions involved with memory, and are able to temporarily slow the clock, boosting short-term memory for a time by increasing the amount of chemicals called neurotransmitters in the brain. These medications, however, do not stop the disease’s relentless advancement in the brain or treat the underlying causes of Alzheimer’s.

Focus At Centrastate Medical Center Is On Detection And Awareness Although the onset of Alzheimer’s disease cannot yet be stopped, researchers believe an early diagnosis can allow a person the opportunity to live well with the disease for as long as possible and plan for the future. Early detection is key, diagnosing the disease earlier and more accurately before symptoms even appear, especially for at-risk individuals.

Across the CentraState Healthcare System, we are focused on Alzheimer’s disease and all forms of dementia, and have made strong efforts, particularly in the area of awareness and education for those afflicted or at risk, and their caregivers.

This is one of my primary areas of focus as a geriatrician within the Family Medicine Center at CentraState Medical Center, and as medical director for The Manor Health & Rehabilitation Center. I also treat residents at our senior living community, Applewood, and at CentraState’s assisted living residence, Monmouth Crossing. For individuals with special needs, including memory-related disorders, Monmouth Crossing features Heritage Corner, a dedicated living environment with amenities designed to maximize independence.

Monmouth Crossing is a member of the Alzheimer’s Association of New Jersey.

At CentraState, we’re also proud of the work being done here by Dr. Zeeshan

Khan. Dr. Khan decided to stay local and do his residency and Geriatric Fellowship at CentraState and he is conducting research on non-pharmacologic interventions—such as music therapy and pet therapy—to help with dementia behaviors.

The importance of these interventions is recognized at the CentraState long-term care facilities and many behavioral intervention programs are in place. Evidence supports these programs can improve the health of our elderly patients by decreasing behavioral symptoms such as depression and anxiety.

People find the changes in behavior caused by Alzheimer ’s to be the most challenging and distressing aspect. In early stages, people may experience irritability, anxiety and/or depression. In later stages, other symptoms may include anger, aggression, emotional distress, physical outbursts, restlessness and delusions.

CentraState Medical Center: The only memory screening site in Central New Jersey CentraState Medical Center is proud to have been recently selected by the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America (AFA) as one of only 11 memory screening sites in New Jersey, and the only site in Monmouth County. CentraState will administer memory screenings and provide educational materials about memory concerns, brain health and successful aging to anyone experiencing warning signs of Alzheimer’s or dementia. These screenings are non-invasive and quick, consisting of questions and tasks designed to gauge memory, language and thinking skills. In fact, a recent study suggests that memory screenings may detect cognitive impairment up to 18 years prior to clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or dementia.

CentraState Medical Center’s Physician Finder offers an extensive roster of highly skilled, board-certified doctors, including geriatricians. Search by name, location or area of specialty, by visiting centrastate. com/physicians or by calling 866-CENTRA7 (866-236-8727).

NEMS Honors National Bullying Prevention Awareness

NEW EGYPT – October is National Bullying Prevention Awareness Month and the weeks during this month are set aside to honor important topics such as Week of Respect, School Violence Awareness Week, and Red Ribbon Week.

On October 3, New Egypt Middle School students and staff kicked off the Week of Respect and chose to Go Blue, in a big way, by wearing the color blue to raise awareness for bullying prevention. Blue Shirt Day, World Day of Bullying Prevention is celebrated world-wide on the first Monday in October.

All NEMS students and staff were asked to wear blue to honor this day.

To make things even more festive, teacher Dagoberto Pinol’s digital media classes created posters and made commercials to advertise the day and draw attention to the importance of being kind instead of bullying others. Prizes were awarded to all homerooms who reached 100 percent participation in this event.

This school-wide event was a great success and brought everyone together to raise awareness for a great cause.

Pinelands Month

NEW JERSEY – October is Pinelands Month.

In 1996, the Pinelands Preservation Alliance asked Governor Christie Todd Whitman to declare the month of October as Pinelands Month.

This designation was a call to action to every member of the Pinelands community – residents, business owners, and organizations – to

celebrate this incredible place.

October is an especially picturesque time of year – cranberries are being harvested, the leaves are changing, and the air cools down making exploring the Pine Barrens even more enjoyable.

Board Approves Slight Rate Decrease For Gas Company

WALL – New Jersey Natural Gas (NJNG) received approval from the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU) on its rate case settlement agreement, as well as Basic Gas Supply Service (BGSS), Conservation Incentive Program (CIP) and Universal Service Fund (USF) rates. When combined with a $48 million bill credit, the net effect of these rate changes is an overall decrease of 0.2 percent on the typical residential heating customer’s annual bills.

The new rates went into effect October 1, while the bill credit will be applied to residential and small commercial customers’ bills from November 2016 through February 2017. When combining the bill credits with the rate changes, a residential heating customer using 1,000 therms a year would see their annual bill go from $970.90 to $968.79, a decrease of $2.11. Customers’ total savings will vary based on individual usage and weather patterns over the fourmonth period.

“We are pleased the Board of Public Utilities approved our new base rates,” said Laurence M. Downes, chairman and CEO of New Jersey Natural Gas. “We believe this resolution is fair and in the best interests of our customers and company.”

Under the approved base rate agreement, NJNG’s total annual revenue is expected to increase by $45 million, effective October 1. It includes a return on equity of 9.75

Fund Your Business Program

percent with a 52.5 percent common equity ratio, and reflects a rate base of $1.37 billion with an overall rate of return of 6.9 percent.

The Southern Reliability Link (SRL), approved by the BPU in Board Orders issued in January and March 2016, continues to progress through the permitting process. As construction has not yet commenced, rate treatment for the project was not included in the new base rates. NJNG expects to request rate treatment for the SRL in a future rate proceeding.

The BPU also approved a five-year extension of NJNG’s Safety and Facilities Enhancement (SAFE) program. The $200 million program will replace the remaining approximately 276 miles of unprotected steel main and associated services in the company’s distribution system. NJNG has been routinely addressing the replacement of these facilities, and in 2015 became the first natural gas utility in New Jersey to eliminate all cast iron from its system. As a part of this program, NJNG will earn an Allowance for Funds Used During Construction (AFUDC) rate on its invested capital during construction, and request rate increases for SAFE spending in annual filings. These annual filings will consider the rate impacts associated with program spending of $157.5 million over its term. As a condition of approval of this project, NJNG is required to file a base rate case no later than November 2019.

TOMS RIVER – Small Business Administration’s Lender Relations & Economic Development Specialist, Sheryl Paynter, will be at the Toms River library branch 7 p.m. on October 27.

Film Series: “Jews & Muslims – Culture & Conflict” At OCC

TOMS RIVER – The Center for Holocaust, Genocide, & Human Rights Education at Ocean County College will sponsor a Diversity in Film Series/Discussion on the first Wednesday of each month from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

The overall topic for the fall semester is “Jews & Muslims – Culture & Conflict.” Coffee and light refreshments will be served. All events take place on OCC’s Main Campus, College Drive.

The events are free and open to the public.

Monsieur Ibrahim will be shown on November 2 in Room B101, Black Box Theatre, Grunin Center. Screen legend Omar Sharif stars in this very humanistic film about an elderly Muslim widower who owns a grocery store in a shabby working-class section of Paris. His life takes on new meaning when he befriends Momo, a young and lonely Jewish boy. In Ibrahim, Momo finds the father he never had, a patient man infused with wisdom and kindness. The film traces the relationship between the two as it develops over time, a journey that changes both their lives. This magical work (French with subtitles) is engaging and deceptively deep in the philosophical issues about which it encourages discussion.

The Lemon Tree will be shown on December 7 in Room 203, Bartlett Hall. Hiam Abbass won the Israeli academy Award for her powerful portrayal of a lonely Palestinian widow who tends her family’s West bank lemon grove.

When the new Israeli Defense Minister and his wife move next door, the government demands that the trees be uprooted. Can two women from opposite sides of the fence find justice in a country and culture divided? Based on a true story.

Upcoming spring 2017 semester films include Some Mother’s Son, Torn Apart, and I, the Worst of All. For more information, contact Dr. Ali Botein-Furrevig, Associate Professor of English & Literature, and Director of the Center for Holocaust, Genocide, and Human Rights Education, at 732-255-0400, ext. 2368, or abotein-furrevig@ocean.edu.

Fall Garden Day Recap

OCEAN COUNTY – Fall Garden Day on September 30 was an informative success with 100 Ocean County gardeners in attendance at the Rutgers Cooperative Extension Agricultural Center on Whitesville Road. Many local enthusiastic gardener participants established new information on planting fall vegetables for a cold season harvest, learned about winter plants to enhance the season as well as fall tick activity and awareness.

This Fall Garden Day was spearheaded by members of the Rutgers Master Gardeners of Ocean County class of 2016, whose decorations, free plants and planters together with food and plant demonstrations provided the liveliness for many local residents.

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.

Are You Tired Of Hearing?

People with perfectly normal hearing are able to hear and understand much of the sound around them automatically. They do not have to get help from lip reading. They do not have to concentrate. They do not have to stop what they are doing. They just hear.

Someone with a hearing loss does not have the luxury of automatic hearing.

If you have a hearing loss, you have to pay close attention, use lip reading when you can and concentrate. Hearing and understanding do not happen automatically. Hearing takes attention and energy and you just can’t do it 12 or 14 hours a day.

Hearing aids allow you to hear better and that is great. But it may be just as important that hearing aids allow you to hear with less effort and energy.

They allow you to be more relaxed as you communicate with the people around you.

Of course, you cannot listen carefully full-time and there will be times when you do not hear as well as other times.

You may not hear as well if you are

tired, under stress or you are thinking about something else. That is why we suggest that anyone speaking to you gets your attention before speaking.

On the other hand, if you are ready and if you are paying attention, you can hear better than you really want to. You just can not do it full time.

Actually, many people with hearing loss are able to hear and communicate surprisingly well in spite of hearing only 50 or 60 percent of the speech sounds. But, we live in a very demanding hearing world and sometimes anything less than 80 to 90 percent is just not good enough. If someone tells you, “Okay, I will see you on the 15th,” and you hear “Okay, I will see you on the 16th,” it was not enough to hear most of the message.

So the next time someone says “you can hear me when you really want to,” you can correct them: “No, you mean I can hear you when I really work at it.”

Remember, if have hearing loss, hearing takes attention and energy.

You can do it 12 to 14 hours a day.

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.

Hit Heart Disease And Stroke Out Of The Park

LAKEWOOD – It’s time to step up to the plate and help hit heart disease and stroke out of the park. Join the American Heart Association and American Stroke Association at the 2016 Shoreline Heart Walk on October 29 at FirstEnergy Park, home of the Lakewood BlueClaws in Lakewood.

The event invites hundreds of local families, organizations and businesses to load the bases for a night filled with cardiovascular wellness. Participants will take to the field for a one-mile or 5K non-competitive walk, then can enjoy family-friendly activities such as health screenings, CPR demonstrations, exercise demonstrations, nutritional information, DJ and free giveaways.

“The Heart Walk is a great opportunity to learn more about your heart health while helping to support a great cause,” stated Kenneth N. Sable, M.D., co-chair for medical industry recruitment for the 2016 Shoreline Heart Walk and president of Jersey Shore University Medical Center. “We hope you will lace up your sneakers and take steps toward a healthier community.”

Being physically active is important to prevent the nation’s No. 1 and No. 5 killers, heart

disease and stroke. Unfortunately, nearly 30 percent of adults report participating in no leisure time physical activity. The good news is all you need is a supportive pair of sneakers to reap the heart-healthy benefits of physical activity. Research has shown that walking just 30 minutes most days can help reduce risk for heart disease and stroke, improve blood pressure, lower risk for obesity and enhance mental well-being.

The American Heart Association and American Stroke Association has made a commitment to helping Americans nationwide get healthier through a variety of healthy-living initiatives, including free guidelines on healthy eating, physical activity, controlling blood pressure and blood cholesterol, stress management and more.

Heart Walk, which is nationally sponsored

by Subway, is an example of bringing the community together to get physically active and learn more about heart-healthy living options.

Here’s To Your Health Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Headaches Connected To Low Thyroid

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

I like saying ‘I told you so’ because it means you got my help years ahead of everyone else. And in this case, it’s about headaches and migraines, and how this condition is tied to hypothyroidism and thyroid hormone insufficiencies. Because headaches and thyroid disease is not life-threatening, there isn’t a lot of focus or research on it, but either condition can leave you disabled, impair relationships and reduce your ability to work or play with your children.

Six years after I first told you this, we have a new and very large study that was printed in the September 2016 issue of a highly respected publication, The Journal of Head and Face Pain. I’ll nutshell it for you here.

Researchers followed over 8,000 people for 20 years. They tracked vital statistics such as frequency of headaches and migraines as well as biomarkers of thyroid disease. What they found is exactly what I told you in two of my books, Thyroid Healthy, and also Headache Free…that is people with migraines, clusters and tension headaches almost always have hypothyroidism.

Hypothyroidism is when your body fails to produce adequate amounts of thyroid hormone, or perhaps it produces it, but your cells can’t take it in and put it to use. Symptoms of low thyroid include anxiety, mood swings, weight gain or inability to lose weight, dry skin, hair loss, poor eyebrow and eyelash growth,

irregular menstrual cycles and the feeling of always being cold. Your hair may be thinner than it used to be, and you’re clean out of energy. Maybe you look pale, sleep fitfully or not at all, or you eat like a bird and still gain weight.

If you have these symptoms, you might have low thyroid hormone levels regardless of what your lab tests say. If you take a medication for cholesterol, for example a statin, those drugs may raise your risk for hypothyroidism, so then after a few months of taking a statin your cholesterol numbers look good, but you feel tired, weak, and heavier. I told you about that little problem 7 years ago.

Anyway, researchers from the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine did a great job monitoring these folks, and what they’ve noticed could help you. People with pre-existing headaches have a 21 percent higher risk of having hypothyroidism, if you have migraines, your risk for thyroid disease is about 41 percent greater than the norm.

If you have headaches or migraines, your thyroid levels need to be checked properly. The labs I want you to take and a better set of reference ranges (because the ones on your lab report are old), can be emailed to you if you sign up for my free newsletter at suzycohen.com.

If you live in chronic pain or despair I really want to assure you that there is help out there, it’s often something simple, and regardless of your headache, there are solutions. Please don’t give up.

County: Always Best To Be Prepared During Hurricane Season

OCEAN COUNTY – County government departments and agencies are always keeping an eye on the weather and are prepared for whatever Mother Nature may have in store.

Hurricane season concludes at the end of November and in recent weeks, named storms have been developing in the Atlantic and marching up the coast.

Preparations for serious weather events include creating or updating a disaster supply kit. The kit should include a gallon of drinking water a day for each person and a battery-powered radio, which could become the sole source of information during an emergency.

In the event of a hurricane, the National Weather Service can usually provide up to

five days of advanced warning, however being prepared could save a life.

Residents should stay alert for and follow all directions that are broadcasted. Many local radio stations provide information on Ocean County.

In the event of an evacuation, like that which occurred during both Hurricane Irene in 2011 and Superstorm Sandy in 2012, it is recom-

mended that essential items be brought along including prescription drugs and any special dietary foods.

If transportation is a problem, plan with neighbors beforehand to ensure assistance will be available. If needed, evacuation assistance can be obtained from the local municipal office of Emergency Management or the Ocean County Office of Emergency Management.

Joey Arminio & The Family Concert LAKEWOOD – CONTACT of Ocean and Monmouth Counties is hosting Joey Arminio & The Family performances from the 500 Club in Atlantic City from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on November 19 at the Woodlake County Club, 25 New Hampshire Ave. Tickets are $48 and include lunch and the show.

All proceeds benefit CONTACT of Ocean and Monmouth Counties, a nonprofit 24/7 Crisis & Suicide Prevention Hotline.

For tickets & information call CONTACT at 732-240-6104 or mail check to P.O. Box 1121, Toms River, NJ 08754.

Transit. Transit-oriented development is one of the biggest economic drivers i n t he st ate. Compa n ies across t he cou nt r y are increasingly interested in locating near transit stations and New Jersey is well positioned to take advantage of this trend. In addition, t housa nd s of r iders use NJ Tra nsit every day and demand is increasing, which means less wear and tear on our roads and reduced traffic congestion.

The state must increase the capital funding that goes to transit projects, including figuring out how to pay our share of the cross-Hudson rail tunnel.

Fund Transit Operations Permanently.

The state contributes approximately $300 million per year from the general fund toward NJ Transit operations, since Transportation Trust Fund money cannot be used for this purpose. Given the large tax cuts that are part of the gas tax compromise legislation, it is unclear where the state will make spending cuts to offset the reduced revenue.

The state must ensure that NJ Transit operating dollars are preserved in the annual budget and identify a dedicated

The Jackson Times, October 22, 2016, Page 21 funding source for ongoing operations.

Target Road Funds for Biggest Benefit. Aside from transit projects, the st ate need s ver y few new- capacit y infrastructure projects. The backlog of maintenance and repair projects should be the state’s singular priority. In order to prioritize these projects further, the state should look at supporting projects that will enjoy the highest per-capita use. The state must re-com mit to a “fix-it-first” approach and incorporate per-capita use when making difficult decisions.

Does New Jersey need a gas tax?

Yes. Is the current size of the gas tax increase appropriate? It’s a good start.

Will this gas tax create a tr uly sustainable Transpor tation Tr ust Fund?

We don’t know. We need to know how this money is going to be spent, that the tax cuts won’t have u nintended consequences and that the f inancial structure of the trust fund will be sustainable, so that the state’s residents and businesses aren’t asked for another increase in a few years to pay down the state’s credit-card balance.

Dear Joel

By Joel Markel

I Know About This School Dear Joel, I have a son who has learning and behavior issues. It has been suggested to me that he attend a therapeutic school.

I have been doing my research and am terrified by the price per year. There is no way that I can afford even a year of that education. Additionally what I am finding out is that many of these schools are located on the West Coast.

Any suggestions?

Answer: Every child in New Jersey is entitled to an education. There are therapeutic schools throughout the entire country.

Some of the schools can cost $100,000 including room and board.Virtually no one can afford those high dollar amounts.

You must start with the guidance counselor at school. Ask if the principal can be present at the meeting as

well. Do not be sur prised if you are met with resistance. The school districts do not like to shell out any extra monies for any student.

You may have to meet with the school board in your district. Depending upon where you live, it can be just a battle to a full blown war. If it gets to be very difficult, there are attorneys who specialize in getting students extra funding for their special needs.

If you need further help please do not hesitate to write me.

County Sees Spike In Turnout For Mail-In And Primary Voting

By Catherine Galioto OCEAN COUNTY – No doubt, a hot presidential contest that grips headlines has led to increased voter turnout, as seen in the June primaries and in the mail-in ballots so far, officials said.

Voter turnout saw a tremendous spike when comparing this presidential primary to the last one, 2012. And a look at absentee/mail-in voting numbers so far this season show those ballots outpacing previous years, according to the county clerk’s office.

Primary Turnout With 47 percent of registered Republicans and 51 percent of registered Democrats voting June 7 in their party’s presidential primaries, the increase is attributable in part to the open election ‑‑ that is, each party having a contested primary without an incumbent, said Ocean County Clerk Scott Colabella.

However, Colabella said it is the national interest in this year’s election in particular that is helping to drive the county’s numbers, as well as voter turnout state-wide.

“There was definitely a huge increase in voter turnout,” said the county clerk of the primary. “That’s compared to 2012, the last presidential primary.”

Similar to this year, the presidential candidate for each party was already presumed going in to the primary in 2012. “At that point, both primaries were already pre-ordained,” said Colabella.

“In 2012 Mitt Romney had already won enough delegates, as the case this year with Donald trump, while Kasich and Cruz still have their names on the ballot.”

In the 2012 presidential primary, 24 percent of registered Republicans voted in the primary, compared to 47 percent this year. On the Democrat side, the 2012 primary turnout was 24 percent, but was 51 percent for this year’s primary.

Mail-In Ballots The county clerk’s office is also busy issuing mail-in ballots, also called absentee or vote-by-mail ballots, at a clip outpacing the last presidential race, Colabella said.

As of October 4, the county clerk’s office has issued about 5,000 more mail-in

ballots for this year’s General Election than for the 2012 one.

As of that date, 19,736 Vote by Mail Ballots were issued by the clerk’s office.

Colabella compared that with an early October date for 2012: “In comparison, at approximately the same date in early October 2012, the last Presidential Election year, our office had issued 14,943 Vote

by Mail Ballots. As such, we have issued nearly 5,000 more Vote by Mail ballots than four years ago at this time,” he said.

As they have in previous years, the November demand for clerk services will lead the Board of Elections to likely hold weekend hours the days before November 8, he said.

“In conjunction with the Board of Elections we do plan on offering additional office hours for voters during the week before Election Day on weeknights, and during the day (Saturday/Sunday) on the weekend prior to the election. As soon as we have finalized plans for the additional hours we will notify the media through a release,” he said.

Colabella said that in the 2012 election, 38,000 voted by mail.

“Some of that was because it was right after Sandy,” said the county clerk, referencing how many residents were displaced because of the storm that year lead to record high mail-in ballots. “That year, Seaside Heights had a low turnout, because lot of residents were displaced, that has changed since things have gotten somewhat better.”

However, he said the trend is toward more people voting by mail-in ballot instead of heading to the booth on election day.

“More and more people are voting that way,” he said. “It did increase over the four year period.”

All vote-by-mail applications sent through the mail must be received by November 1, but a voter can also stop in the clerk’s office in person by 3 p.m. November 7.

For more information on vote-by-mail, visit the county clerk’s office at oceancountyclerk.com or the Board of Elections at 800-452-5254.

Inside The Law Why Do I Need A Power Of Attorney?

Robert C. Shea Esq.

By Robert C Shea, of R. C. Shea and Associates

In the past you may have made an appointment with your attorney to prepare a Last Will and Testament and Living Will, however, you may not realize the importance and convenience of a Power of Attorney. A Power of Attorney can be crucial during a time of disability. Additionally, a Power of Attorney can be useful if you are on vacation and unable to perform simple everyday decisions. A Power of Attorney can be useful for people of all ages.

A Power of Attorney enables you to identify a trusted family member or close friend as Attorney-in-Fact.

The power of the Attorney-in-Fact is determined by the type of Power of Attorney that you execute.

A Durable Power of At tor ney grants another person the ability to act on your behalf, regardless of illness. The scope of the Durable Power of At tor ney can be ver y broad encompassing all financial, banking and personal decisions. For example, this Power of Attorney allows the Attorney-in-Fact to pay bills, borrow money, complete tax, medical and other forms for you. In addition, you may name an Alternate Attorney-in-Fact, if your first choice is unable or unavailable to act on your behalf.

In contrast, a Limited Power of Attorney is very narrow in scope. This would limit the Attorney-in-Fact’s author it y to act on you r behalf

only if you become disabled. While this document is executed prior to the onset of a disability, it can only be used if and when, but not before you become disabled.

In order for the Limited Power of Attorney to become effective, you may need a physician’s written report to confirm you are disabled and unable to manage your personal and financial affairs.

You may need a Power of Attorney if you are out-of-state or country on vacation, and require someone to act on your behalf. For instance, you may appoint a family member, close friend or your attorney as Attorney-in-Fact to complete a real estate closing. In this case the Power of Attorney would specifically outline the purpose, time period and extent of the Attorney-in-Fact’s authority.

This power would be only for the purpose of closing or selling and expire after the closing is complete.

In addition, the specific property would be identified in the Power of Attorney, therefore, limiting the closing power to only the specific property.

Whether you are traveling away from home, planning for the future or have a loved one with disabilities, a Power of Attorney can be the best way to ensure the appropriate decisions and duties are carried out for you or your loved ones.

Our clients’ success is our greatest reward.

“Sunita Mann, MD Treats the Patient First... Not the Disease”

Sunita Mann, MD - Functional Medicine Specialist Functional Medicine is a fundamentally new way of thinking about health and disease and puts the power of being healthy back in the patient’s hands, in a partnership with their doctor.

Dr. Sunita Mann has a favorite quote that embodies her philosophy of medicine: As Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine said, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.”

As a doctor that practices a relatively new field of medicine known as Functional Medicine, Dr. Mann places a heavy emphasis on eating healthy foods. This brand of medicine seeks to reveal the root cause of chronic health issues by looking at the patient’s entire body and their environment. “The key to this approach is to look beyond a group of symptoms and instead, treat the underlying cause of the condition. Many chronic diseases like Diabetes, Neurological disorders, Menopause and other hormonal imbalances cause significant problems for people and prevents them from living a healthy life. It can also result in a dependence on prescription drugs,” she says. However, there

is much more to healing than drugs. Functional Medicine is a fundamentally new way of thinking about health and disease. Conventional Medicine (which is what she was taught in Medical School) treats the signs and symptoms of disease, often individually. She adds, “We were taught to look at the body as systems rather than the whole being, in which so many health issues are interconnected.”

How did you become involved in this area of medicine?

Dr. Mann: I’ve found that many functional medicine doctors become involved in the field through their own health journey. The same is true for me. My Conventional Medicine training was in Diagnostic Radiology and Neuroradiology which gave me a great background in diagnosing medical problems. I practiced Radiology for 13 years until 2013 when I developed a life-threatening anaphylactic reaction to the contrast

dye I routinely used in my radiology procedures. As a result of the reaction, I was unable to walk more than 50 feet without feeling shortness of breath, had difficulty climbing steps, and was not able to drive. After many months of recovery, during which I realized I could not continue to practice in my chosen field of medicine, I knew it was time to take care of my health. That journey led me to uncover a whole new world of medicine, which combines the medical principles that are thousands of years old with the cutting edge technology of modern laboratory diagnosis. Because of my background, I needed to see the evidence of what was going on in my own body and from there, discover that health is a continuum: from optimal health, through problems such as weight gain, to high cholesterol, to high blood pressure and high blood sugar, to fatigue, all the way to disease. As I began a journey towards wellness, I realized that my newfound knowledge could help others dealing with illness. I then began my formal certification in Functional Medicine so I could offer these techniques to my patients.

What is the main difference between Conventional medical care and Functional medicine?

Dr. Mann: Conventional medicine is great at treating acute problems, such as pneumonia, heart attack, infections, and trauma. In fact, without this type of medicine I would not be alive today. After such a severe anaphylactic reaction, the only reason I am here is because of the amazing medical personnel who reacted so quickly to save my life. However, once a person is out of immediate health danger, conventional doctors are not trained to keep people in optimal health. A conventional doctor may counsel patients on eating a healthy diet and getting exercise but they lack the time and tools to help the patient with their specific health concerns. Functional medicine is Personalized Medicine and allows the doctor and patient to work together to look at the specific genetics, environment, laboratory findings and risk factors to formulate a specific plan to achieve the goal of optimal health.

What are the benefits of this type of medicine?

Dr. Mann: Personalized Functional Medicine treats the whole person rather than parts of the person. By looking at a combination of genetic predispositions, family history, and lifestyle factors (such as nutritional status, exercise, and

stress levels) we use targeted diagnostic tests to see what is going on inside the body. I can then provide an individualized plan to get a patient to optimal health.

The goal is to locate and reverse physiological imbalances that may have been present for years before a person manifests disease, and in someone who already has a disease, to use those same tools to reverse the process.

What is the most rewarding part about your profession?

Dr. Mann:I love to help people who have been to many different conventional doctors looking for help, often bewildered by how they got to this point and then finally come to the realization that they can achieve optimal health.

What is the most challenging?

Dr. Mann: The field requires a real commitment from the patient to become my partner in getting healthy. There are those who hope for a “magic pill” to solve their chronic health problems and the simple truth is, there is no such

mation in the body, the hormone status, and the health of the gut.

All of these factors can be tested for and if a person is found to have problems in any of these areas, they can be treated with a highly personalized plan to reverse these changes.

Do you treat a lot of women with hormonal issues?

Dr. Mann: Yes I see many patients with hormonal concerns who are afraid to take hormones because they’ve heard that it can increase the risk of cancers and other problems. I like to educate my patients about Bio-identical Hormones, which are very different from the commonly prescribed hormones, derived from horse urine that many women have used in the past. Bio identical hormones are a natural replacement for the hormones we all lose as we age and in fact, are crucial for good health.

You could say that Dr. Mann practices what she preaches. After a long day at the office she draws on the relaxation techniques she

thing. Like anything worth having in life, optimal health takes commitment and true desire to change the habits that lead the patient down the path to illness. Another challenge is the cost of some of the testing. Unfortunately, many of the tests that assist in functional medicine diagnosis are not covered by insurance. The patient and I have to make a decision about which testing is the most critical to start with. I try to work within their cost constraints but as I explain to patients who have already seen so many other doctors, sometimes paying for the testing themselves makes all the difference in getting healthy.

What are the most common issues you see in your profession?

Dr. Mann: What I treat mirrors the common health concerns present in America today. Obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancer – these are the main drivers of the common killers. Conventional medicine waits until the onset of these conditions to start treatment.

Functional medicine uses testing to find the earliest signs that a patient is at risk for a specific disease. I look at the body’s response to certain foods or the presence of food sensitivities, level of inflam-

has learned over her years of being in the field. She adds, “One of the most powerful tools available to all of us is the practice of breathing techniques to actually change our physiology.” She uses yoga-breathing exercises in the morning to get ready for the day and ends her day with meditation to help her unwind.

By practicing these techniques regularly she is able to reduce stress and directly reduce inflammation in her body, which she believes is the main cause of chronic disease.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast

For the week ofOctober 22-October 28

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You can be a night owl or an early bird but you can’t be both.

In the week ahead you may be a busy beaver and tempted to work so hard that you exhaust your inner resources. Be sure to plan ahead to get adequate rest.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Social events and business meetings might become indistinguishable from one another in the week ahead.

Your instincts are on target for love and money, but it might not help you buy items that require taste and discrimination.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Back pedal when you arrive at a crossroads. Delay signing agreements until all the facts are in and be sure to get all promises in writing in the week to come. It isn’t honorable to take an unfair advantage even if you can.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You can be shrewd in business as this week unfolds. Rub your pennies together until they squeak. Although you can charm others with your brilliant oratory it might be difficult to make a romantic proposal.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Keep an ear to the ground. You could end up spinning your wheels if you try to initiate something important at work unless you listen carefully to someone’s advice. Find lasting pleasure from a job well done this week.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Make long term security a priority. In the week ahead your instincts about financial matters are better than usual. You can make your workplace or office more comfortable and eco-friendly, as well as more productive.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Your generous gestures and tolerant attitude might put you in the leadership seat on the job. As this week unfolds you may find a solution for a health problem through a diet change or develop a sense of contentment.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In the week ahead you might find that friendliness is next to godliness. Add a teaspoon of sympathy to a cup of knowledge and mix generously with common sense to solve a problem. You may receive helpful advice.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Slow down when you encounter the speed bumps of life. In the week ahead you may be fast and furious when money making is the subject. At the same time unexpected bills and expenses can slow you down.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Where there is smoke there is fire. You may get a whiff of an opportunity or ideas that lead to forming successful concepts. Make presentations and showcase your ideas in the best possible light in the week ahead.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Avoid reacting emotionally to matters that require a cool head and logic. Use someone as a go-between for crucial negotiations. Sound advice from a professional or a friend can improve financial conditions this week.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Attend to matters that need inspiration or a creative touch as this week unfolds. This may be a good week to launch a new health regimen or begin a diet. With very little effort you can mend some very essential fences.

Wolfgang Puck’s Kitchen

Game Day Grub, Revamped

By Wolfgang Puck Of course, chips and dips are a must when you’re watching weekend football on TV. A pot of homemade chili makes a great addition to the party. So do bratwursts or other favorite sausages. The list goes on and on of foods that are fun to eat while your eyes are on the action.

But nothing compares to chicken wings, which simply offer the perfect combination of tender meat, crispy skin and finger-licking sauce. Each wing is just a bite or two, so there always seems to be room for just one more.

America’s craze for chicken wings was already going strong when I first moved here back in 1973. It all started in 1964 with Buffalo wings, a specialty of the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, N.Y., where the specialty of the house was tossed in a spicy-hot sauce and served w it h a cool, blue - cheese d ressi ng and celery sticks. While that version remai ns a classic, g radually chefs everywhere began adding their own personal spins, from wings bathed in barbecue sauce down South to those tossed with teriyaki sauce and pineapple in Hawaii.

One of the most delicious versions I’ve ever tasted, though, is served at The Source, my restaurant next to the Newseum, just down the street from the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. Under Chef Scott Drewno, we’ve gained a reput ation for in novative Asian food firmly rooted in tradition but with exciting modern twists. That description certainly sums up what Drewno calls General Tso’s chicken wings, taking its name from a chicken dish popular in Chinese restaurants across the United States and loosely inspired by Hunanese cooking.

The recipe begins by prepping the wings in a way you won’t normally find them back in upstate New York.

It calls only for what some markets call the “drumette,” the largest bone of the wing, trimmed of both the smaller bone and the wing tip. (You can find markets that sell them this way; or do it yourself, saving the trimmings for your stockpot.) To make the wings even more appealing to eat, the skin and meat are loosened from the narrower end and pushed down to the opposite end, forming a plump lollipop shape with a handle.

Marinated with garlic, ginger and scallions, the wings are then dipped in a cornstarch-and-water slurry before being deep-f r ied. The f inal touch: Tossing them with a delicious, sticky sauce made from sugar, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, soy, chilies and sesame oil. Prepared in this way, chicken wings come out tangy, spicy, sweet and succulent. Be sure to serve them with lots of napkins, so you don’t get sauce on the remote. And have plenty of beer or another favorite beverage ready to refresh your palate before the next one!

GENERAL TSO’S CHICKEN WINGS Serves 4 to 8 For the chicken wings: 24 chicken wing drumettes 1 bunch scallions, white and light green parts, thinly sliced, dark green parts reserved 1 tablespoon minced garlic 1 tablespoon grated ginger 1/4 cup (60 mL) peanut oil Pinch crushed red pepper flakes, optional Kosher salt For the spicy-sweet chili-garlic sauce: 1/4 cup (60 mL) peanut oil 2 or 3 Thai-style dried chili pods, broken into pieces 1 1/2 cups (375 mL) sugar 2 cups (500 mL) unseasoned rice vinegar 1/4 cup (60 mL) soy sauce 1/4 cup (60 mL) sambal oelek (Indonesian chili paste) 1 tablespoon grated ginger 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil For frying and serving: Peanut oil, for deep frying 1/2 cup (125 mL) cornstarch, plus extra as needed 1/2 cup (125 mL) cold water, plus extra as needed Cilantro leaves, for garnish Scallions cut on a bias, for garnish Starting at the narrower end of each drumette, carefully cut through the skin and meat all the way around to the bone.

With your fingers, push the skin and meat down to the opposite end to form a plump lollipop shape.

Put the prepped wings in a mixing bowl.

Add the white and some of the green parts of the green onions, along with the garlic, ginger, peanut oil, pepper flakes (if you like) and salt. Toss well. Cover and refrigerate for several hours or up to overnight.

For the sauce, heat a wok or large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the peanut oil.

When the oil shimmers, add the chiles and cook until they darken, about 1 minute.

Stir in the sugar, vinegar, garlic, soy sauce, sambal and ginger. Boil until reduced by half, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the sesame oil. Set aside 1 cup (250 mL), refrigerating the rest for another use.

Too cook the wings in an automatic deep-fryer, heat several inches of peanut oil to 350 F (175 C); or heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pot to 375 F (190 C) on a deep-frying thermometer. Meanwhile, stir together the cornstarch and water to make a slurry. Lightly dredge the wings in the slurry, then carefully place in the oil, taking care not to overcrowd. Cook until golden brown, about 10 minutes; then drain on paper towels.

In a wok or saute pan, bring the 1 cup (250 mL) of sauce to a boil and turn off the heat.

Toss or turn the wings in the sauce.

Using tongs, arrange the chicken wings on a platter. Spoon the sauce left in the pan over them. Garnish with cilantro sprigs and sliced scallion greens. Serve immediately.
