Leave Leaves Curbside

By Catherine Galioto MANCHESTER – New this year: the township is using leaf vacuums to suck up the fallen fall foliage. The two new leaf vacuums will be in use this collection season. They were bought in May for $112,000, and officials hope they will streamline work for both township crews and residents. “These collection units will make yard maintenance easier for our residents since leaves no longer need to be bagged for collection,” said Public Works Director Al Yodakis in a statement. “All residents need to do is rake or blow their leaves to the edge of the roadway in neat rows, parallel to the frontage of the property line. From there, our crews will vacuum the leaves. No bags are necessary.” Leaves should not extend onto the residents’ property, and no brush, sticks or other debris may be mixed in with leaf piles. Officials warned that if any material is comingled with the leaf piles, the entire pile will not be collected. Also, don’t park streetside during your collection time. The collection scheduling remains the same as previous years, and can be found by visiting the Manchester Township website at ManchesterTWP.com and clicking on the “2016 Recycling & Bulk Pick Up Schedule” button.

By Jennifer Peacock MANCHESTER – One councilman sought to answer residents’ questions about a highly controversial project that will land in Manchester. Councilman Brendan Weiner took the lead at the last Manchester council meeting to address questions about New Jersey Natural Gas’s Southern Reliability Link, a 30-mile gas pipeline that will through Burlington, Monmouth and Ocean counties, from Chesterfield Township to a connection in Manchester, running through Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst in Plumsted, Jackson and Manchester. Rumors about the project have swirled around the project, with two being discussed at council’s first October meeting. Township residents were most concerned about the purpose of the pipeline, which some had heard would be used for exporting gas, while others raised concerns about reports that a compressor station was being built at Colonial Drive and Route 70. “Council, as well as the mayor, have gone to meetings, reviewed

the plans…of the Southern Reliability Link and the impacts it will have on Manchester,” Weiner said. “And to date, [the compressor] was nowhere in these plans, so I was surprised.” It turns out both concerns are unfounded, Weiner confirmed with NJNG officials. Weiner contacted the gas company immediately after the October 11 council meeting, and researched the project to see if any changes had been made to the plans he, council, and the township administration had reviewed. “I did not fi nd anything,” Weiner said about the issues raised by residents. Weiner received an email from NJNG’s chief of staff Linda Kellner October 12, in which she dispelled the rumors. “We will not export natural gas outside of the United States. In fact, as a regulated New Jersey local distribution company, we are not permitted to export natural gas. Any statement to the contrary is untrue,” Kellner wrote. “We are not building a new facility at (Pipeline - See Page 5)

Police Seeking Tips In Whitney Estates Gun�ire

By Catherine Galioto MANCHESTER – Police responded to gunfire on Kent Road in the Whitney Estates section of Manchester, and are now seeking any tips from the public as the investigation continues. No one was injured, but a house there has bullet holes, in an incident after 9 p.m. October 27, police said. Police said multiple reports came in at 9:35 p.m. October 27 of gun shots around the 2500 block of Ken Road. The house was struck multipe times by gunfire, when the suspect or suspect fired multiple rounds from the street at the residence, police said. “Upon the arrival of patrol officers, it was learned that an unknown person(s) fire multiple rounds from the street at a residence on Kent Road. Although several of the rounds penetrated the occupied residence, no one was injured,” police said. Police closed the street for several hours, canvasing the neighborhood with the township K-9 unit. The Manchester Police Investigations Bureau were joined by the Ocean County Crime Scene Investigations Unit. As of Tuesday, the investigation remained ongoing and police continued to encourage tips. Police are asking anyone who may have seen any suspicious person(s) or vehicles in the area leading up to the shooting to contact Detective Adam Guker at 732-6572009, ext. 4210. The police department also maintains an anonymous tip line at manchesterpolicenj. com/investigations-bureau/tip-line.

Additionally, our existing facility, which is secured by a perimeter fence, will be slightly modified to accommodate the additional valving required to connect the SRL to our system.” Weiner also received information from NJNG’s government affairs office, which echoed Kellner’s statement that the company cannot legally export natural gas. “Additionally, NJNG is not building a compressor station or a new facility at the corner of Route 70 and Colonial Drive.

The DEP held public hearings on the SRL in Bordentown on October 19 and 20. Many environmental and citizen groups oppose the pipeline, with the Pinelands Preservation Alliance labeling it “an illegal project.” The Sierra Club’s NJ Chapter said the project will cause pollution and “sprawl and overdevelopment down the shore and

near the Pinelands,” and has urged residents who have allowed NJNG onto their property to revoke that permission. The citizens group, People Over Pipelines, one of many to spring up over this controversy, said “such a pipeline is not convenient, safe, or desirable in inhabited residential areas, under roadways where there is heavy truck traffic as well as heavy volume vehicular traffic daily, near cemeteries, golf courses, parks, waterways, or other preserved lands where people may be present. Nor is it wanted if it will not give any benefit to anyone along its route – just a big liability.” In fact, the group contends that few customers lost gas during Sandy. But Manchester mayor Kenneth Palmer believes the pipeline will be good for Manchester.

“In my conversations with NJNG about the SRL, they have consistently indicated the purpose of the SRL is to provide redundancy to their existing pipeline. I had a couple concerns about the location of the pipes and NJNG has been responsive in formulating an acceptable solution,” Palmer said. “I certainly understand those towns complaints and concerns that are affected by the SRL that are not serviced by natural gas. However, a large portion of Manchester Township is serviced by natural gas and will benefit from the SRL.” According to NJNG, the pipeline will ensure that service remains uninterrupted should another natural disaster like Super Storm Sandy strike New Jersey. The company said the pipeline will serve 83 municipalities and benefit more than 1 million people.

Health Insurance Among Polarizing Issues

It is rare for a small business owner or an individual to have a candid face-to-face conversation with the health insurance company that safeguards their lives. But, as a health insurance broker, those conversations are a regular part of my day. With the national election, you can imagine what my clients and I are discussing over a cup of coffee. Our clients – many of whom say they are still undecided in who should be elected to the White House – are particularly concerned about what direction the next President will take this nation in regards to health care. In my years as a health insurance broker, and as a leader in the New Jersey Association of Health Underwriters (NJAHU), I cannot recall a time when our country was as polarized in its politics. That gaping span in most evident when it comes to quality, accessible health care, an ever-growing expense that many of my clients struggle to afford for their employees and their families. For many, health care is now seen as a luxury, rather than an entitlement, as part of living in this great country. It is often used as a debate point between politicians, with the facts somehow muddied in rhetoric that leaves our clients confused and dismayed. This election is a scary moment for our industry because there is such an unknown about the future. My clients seek consistency and predictability; the baseline for how to create a budget, and make personal and professional decisions that affect the lives of loved ones. To my clients, the “winners” and “losers” of an election are not Democrat or Republican. Rather, they are real people, many with real health concerns, who win or lose, based on the ultimate counts in the ballot box. Just one look at the candidates’ platforms and you will realize there could be a very different

America when the next President is sworn in on January 20. Hillary Clinton is advocating for a continuation of the Affordable Care Act that President Barack Obama considers one of his most landmark achievements as the leader of the free world. And then there is Donald Trump, who is demanding, with great flourish, that the federal law be abolished. And there are many, many opinions in between from our New Jersey lawmakers about what is fair and necessary to provide affordable health care coverage to all who need it. Specifically, Clinton wants to safeguard access to public coverage through Medicare or a public option, push for states to adopt an ACA Medicaid expansion and expand state waiver options. Trump, meanwhile, wants to return power to the states in regulating insurance markets, limit federal requirements on both private insurance and Medicaid and reconsider costly mandates. You can see there is obviously plenty my clients and I need to discuss. As a NJAHU member and broker, I am proud to advocate for New Jersey employers and families every day. I am pleased to explain the positions of the candidates and try to forecast what it all means for them. Unlike our candidates, I am afforded the opportunity to remain truly non-partisan. My only constituents are my clients, and it is obvious what they expect from me: Be the most knowledgeable resource about America’s health care system, be a trusted, impartial resource and recognize that the client is always the most important person in the room. Those are some basic rules that, perhaps, our elected lawmakers can live by once this political season comes to a close on November 8. Frank Petrulla Brick

Letters To The Editor Vote No On Question One I stand with the thousands of residents across the state in opposing Question One and protecting New Jersey taxpayers. We know gaming expansion in North Jersey would lead to increased unemployment, the loss of billions in economic activity and leave taxpayers responsible when these projects fail. I support the businesses, unions and community groups across the state dedicated to defeating Question One on Election Day. Betty Lewis Atlantic Cit y Chapter President National Association for the Advancement of Colored People

Voters Must Dedicate Gas Tax Fund The New Jersey voters have a chance to show their smartness or stupidity. On the November ballot will be the question to “dedicate” the gas tax fund solely for transportation, roads and bridge repair or give the state legislators a “license to steal.” If the voters do not vote to “dedicate” then there should no complaints when

future taxes are proposed after this fund is again depleted through “siphoning.” The Star Ledger buried this voter choice in their paper and the Asbury Park Press did not even mention it, so far. So much for educating the uneducated on their options. William McPhail Toms River

Who Will Make America Great Again As the country approaches Election Day, Americans must ask themselves if they are really satisfied with the country’s current state of affairs. Certainly our problems are numerous: a sluggish economy, racial strife, rioting, the brutal assault of our police officers, ISIS, terrorism on our soil, illegal immigration, an avalanche of illegal drugs pouring over the southern border, dangerous cuts to our military and American weakness abroad. Whew! Is there any wonder as to why Donald Trump’s message of trying to make America great again has resonated with so many? While Trump is not perfect, he does bring a refreshing alternative to the usual power-hungry operatives in

Washington. Considering Trump’s remarkable business experience and resolve to help the country, he may very well be able to get things back on track again. On the other hand, Hillary Clinton’s campaign continues to be dogged by charges of corruption by the Clinton Foundation, pay-toplay schemes while she was at the State Department, and worse yet, her reckless handling of America’s classified documents, which put the country at risk. After several years of malaise, the nation needs a change, not more of the same. Lissa McGrath Sea Girt

Actions, Not Words, Matter Most Funny how the “PC” crowd is clamoring to pounce on the words of Donald Trump while acting as if the actions of Hillary Clinton are something easily looked past. Hillary Clinton has been handed everything she has gotten since law school. Each time, she has failed. Please read up on her history. For some I feel it will be too hard to do because the ticker on the bottom of the mainstream media news feed is what qualifies for some as all the information they need to so well informed. While our presidential choices this year are well below what we need to make right the poorly run administration of Barack Obama, we need a complete movement away from the policies of Barack Obama. Internationally we are a laughing stock. Iran, North Korea, Russia, China and now “our friends” in the Philippines are all seeing us as the pushovers we have become as a nation. The Middle East is a disaster. Our policies, of which Hillary Clinton is partially responsible for, are failing and have failed. Domestic policies have proven to be just as much of a disaster. Economically the government has “QE’d” themselves into

private business and inflated the economic numbers to fool people into thinking we are doing so much better after the issues of 2008/09. Obamacare continues to take taxpayer dollars and funnel it into a failed socialist medical system while lying to the public about how great it is doing. It is doing exactly what our current socialist president wants it to do. The failure forces more people into the government healthcare system and away from private insurance. When enough people get into government run insurance the private provider is shut out, thus creating a perfect socialist system. Barack Obama has been a failure by all means and statistics. The country has a deficit of $20 trillion, with more to come. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office will have the final numbers after, thankfully, he leaves office but it is expected to be somewhere in the area of $21 trillion. With fewer and fewer legal US citizens actually paying taxes and the more and more legal US citizens living off the federal government and the tax dollars paid by the fewer and fewer we should see much more added to the deficit. And this does not take into account the millions and millions of illegal immigrants living here and taking from the masses of asses who allow it to happen. So see, Trump’s words are not the problem with this nation. The actions of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama as well as many others who are politicians and not patriots are the true problem. But fear not. The mainstream media and liberal progressive wing of our society will continue to feed the masses of asses the ilk they are currently feeding to them. This will keep the fat happy and ignorant to the truth of what is really going on. “Keep them dumb and we keep power” is the unspoken mantra of the liberal progressive left.

Meat Is Scary I have no fear of all the goblins, the witches, or even the evil clowns lurking on Halloween. What really scares me are the latest reports about the meat industry. Like news of pig farms dumping millions of gallons of pig feces into North Carolina’s water supplies during Hurricane Matthew. Or of saturating their neighborhoods with windborne fecal waste spray. Or of animal farming accounting for more greenhouse gases than transportation. Like recurring media exposes of horrific atrocities against animals on factory farms. Or of subjecting slaughterhouse workers to crippling workplace injuries at

slave wages. Or of exploiting farmers by controlling prices. Like repeated reports of studies linking consumption of animal products with elevated risk of diabetes, heart disease, stroke, cancer, and other killer diseases. Or reports of the meat industry bullying health authorities to remove warnings from dietary guidelines. Now, that’s really scary. I fought back by dropping animal products from my menu, and my local supermarket has rewarded me with a colorful display of fresh fruits and veggies, as well as a rich selection of plant-based meats, milks, cheeses, and ice creams. I am no longer scared, though I still fear for my friends and neighbors. Hal Tubbs Toms River

Manchester Police Welcome Second Chaplain To Department

MANCHESTER – The Manchester Township Police welcomed Pastor Robert Clark as the Department’s second Police Chaplain, expanding an important program in which highly trained clergy assist officers and the community during times of need. Clark joins Rev. James Davis, who has served as the Manchester Township Police Chaplain since November 2011, in this important volunteer role. The duties of the Police Chaplain include helping officers make death notifications, assisting with critical incident response, and mitigating the stress families deal with during difficult times. Police Chaplains may also provide services for ceremonies, funerals or any other special event. “The role of the Police Chaplain is critical to our officers and our residents, as they are often called upon to handle sensitive and difficult tasks. I’m proud that Pastor Clark has joined us to offer his experience, training and expertise to our community,” said Chief Lisa Parker. Clark currently serves at the Building on the Rock Church located on Beckerville Road and is an instructor for Lincoln Tech at the Fort Dix Prison. He is a certified Disaster Response Crisis Counselor (Department of Homeland Security) who studied Christian Ministry at Toccoa Falls College in Georgia and received his Bible Certification from Crown College in Minnesota. Clark, who also previously served the United Way of Ocean County, came highly recommended to join the Manchester Police Chaplaincy and passed a thorough background check before his appointment in September. “The Police Department is so much more than just providing protection, it’s also serving,” said Clark. “For me, the position of Police Chaplain is about doing whatever I can to help the officers perform their duties and ensure that their emotional well-being is cared for. Being

Although they are faith-based individuals, Police Chaplains subscribe to no denomination when providing counseling and other services. As such, they are a crucial asset for law enforcement during critical incidents, as they bring comfort, assistance and resources to any officer and/or resident regardless of their faith. Residents can rest assured that communications with Police Chaplains remain confidential, except when it pertains to the endangerment of persons, any criminal acts and suicide. “I’m really looking forward to working alongside with the Manchester Township Police Department to form a bond of trust with both the officers and the community,” said Clark.

MANCHESTER – The Manchester Township PTA has a tradition of offering a “sweet treat” to the staff of any school that achieves 100 percent staff membership, PTA President Sarita Dodd told the Board of Education at its October 20 meeting. Competition to be the first school to achieve 100 percent membership has become fierce in recent years. Dodd said that last year, Manchester Middle School was first and they were determined to continue their reign this year. They were successful, beating Ridgeway School by a matter of hours. The high school, which last year did not make 100 percent, was determined to change that this year, and they did. Dodd pre-

She also presented a special ‘trophy’ made of crayons to Driber for achieving first place once again. Superintendent of Schools, David Trethaway, said that he is very proud of the staff for supporting the PTA with 100 percent participation, and he is also very grateful to have such an amazing PTA that does so much for Manchester schools.

The Underwear Tree

WHITING – In parts of Ocean County homelessness is truly epidemic. People have opportunities to get gently used and even new clothing from many sources in the area. But, clean underwear and socks are hard to come by for people who do not have access to laundry facilities. So the Whiting United Methodist Church is again doing an “Underwear Tree” and this year asks that socks be included as gifts. Our members (and nonmembers) have been generous in the past and plans are to do it again. Start collecting gifts to the under-served, either underwear or socks of all sizes and the

church will be putting up the decorated tree in early December. The stars and balls, will give you the sizes and gender needed. All sizes are needed. The underwear and socks will be bagged and delivered to various sources in the area. For more information, call the church office at 732-350-6878. The Whiting United Methodist Church is located at 55 Lacey Rd. The church has Sunday morning services at 8:30 and 10:30 with children’s service at 10:30. The church is handicap-accessible and everyone is welcome.

Kevin’s Kids Toy Drive

MANCHESTER – Kevin’s Kids Toy Drive will be held on November 26 from 5 to 9 p.m. at the Pine Lake Park Club House located on Morningside Avenue. To enter, bring an unopened toy or $5 dona-

Library Offers Program About World War II Naval Disaster MANCHESTER– Staff from the Reference Department at the Manchester Branch Library will give an informational presentation about the USS Indianapolis, a ship whose sinking led to the greatest single loss of life at sea in the history of the U.S. Navy. The program is on November 11 at 3:30 p.m. On July 30, 1945, after delivering parts for the first atomic bomb to the United States air base at Tinian, the ship was torpedoed by a Japanese submarine, sinking it in 12 minutes. Of 1,196 crewmen aboard, approximately 300

went down with the ship. The remaining 900 faced exposure, dehydration, saltwater poisoning, and shark attacks while floating with few lifeboats and almost no food or water. The Navy learned of the sinking when survivors were spotted four days later by a US Navy plane on routine patrol. Only 317 survived. Registration is required. The program is open to young adults and adults. Call 732-657-7600 or go online to theoceancountylibrary.org. The Manchester Branch of the Ocean County Library is located at 21 Colonial Dr.

Hearing Aids Also Go On Sale

There is absolutely nothing wrong with giving the consumer better value for their dollar. As we all know, the economy is really not thriving and our retirement nest egg is half empty. The real question that you have to ask yourself is: what is the purpose of advertising lower priced hearing instruments? I offer you some of my own insights: 1. Lower priced hearing aids attract the consumer to possibly make an appointment. 2. Lower priced hearing aids may be more affordable to those on a fixed budget. 3. Lower priced hearing aids may be all the consumer needs in order to communicate better. If you decide to take the next step and have your hearing evaluated, you need to ask yourself the following questions: 1. Did the hearing health care professional recommend the lower priced product?

2. Did the hearing health care professional recommend a higher priced product? If so, what was his/her rationale for selecting this hearing instrument? In choosing the best product for your listening needs, you need to be aware of the technology - Is it a low, mid or a high level digital product? How many channels does it have? What type of warranty does it have? Does the product have dual-microphones? Do I have a trial period to evaluate the product? Do I have scheduled follow-up services? Do I have a written contract? Becoming an educated consumer will create a more positive outlook on improving your hearing and making the right decision. Remember, your lifestyle should help dictate the best technology for your listening needs. Hearing the sweet sounds of your grandchildren again will put a smile on your face and those who love you.

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.

HERE’S TO YOUR HEALTH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Cryptoxanthin Found In Squash Helps Lung Cancer By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Autumn is stunning here in Colorado and I wait for the leaves on the trees to begin to glow orange and yellow. I love how the temperature drops, and I get to dust off my beloved boots. There’s a pumpkin patch near my house that begins to boast its harvest with pretty little pumpkins for miles. I love looking at those pumpkins, but I confess I haven’t found my ‘pumpkin gene’ yet. They’re just okay, I don’t crave them. The gourd I long for is Butternut squash! Butternut squash has a lot of beta carotene which your body automatically converts to vitamin A, unless you have a variant (expressing genetic SNP) in their BCMO1 gene. In that case, you can’t convert the beta carotene to Vitamin A very well, so supplementation with retinol would be helpful or you become deficient in vitamin A. The health perks of eating butternut are just crazy amazing. Today, I’ll focus on beta cryptoxanthin, this is a powerful carotenoid (similar to beta carotene) and it protects DNA. So much so, that studies suggest it can help with cancer, especially lung cancer. Researchers in Philadelphia just published results from an animal study stating beta cryptoxanthin can “be used as a chemopreventive agent or a chemotherapeutic compound against lung cancer.” It works by fl ipping a switch on the genes in your body that keep cancer from spreading. As for inflammation, cryptoxanthin compound has the ability to reduce development of rheumatoid arthritis according to a University of Manchester study. A three and a half ounce serving (100 grams) of cooked butternut squash contains about 3,120 mcg of beta cryptoxanthin, whereas a

bowl of boiled carrots contains only 199 mcg. As for butternut squash, the only thing you have to throw out is the skin. You can actually roast the seeds with olive oil, salt and pepper. These little guys are rich in tryptophan which converts to the happy neurotransmitter serotonin, and subsequently into sleepy melatonin. Here is one recipe from my newest e-book called “Eat for the Seasons: 21 Delicious Fall Recipes.” Download your free copy from suzycohen.com. Butternut Squash Savory Salad Ingredients 2 tablespoons butter 2 cups butternut squash, cubed Salt and pepper 2 teaspoons coconut or brown sugar ½ cup almond slivers ¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice 6 cups mixed lettuce greens (Romaine, butter, etc). 1 avocado, sliced 1 small cucumber, sliced thinly ¼ cup pomegranate seeds Directions Melt butter in a skillet and cook the butternut squash with salt and pepper (as desired) and sugar (to caramelize it.) Cook until golden or lightly brown and tender. Toast the almond slivers in another saucepan along with the pumpkin pie spice, keep tossing them until they are toasted, it took about 5 minutes for me. Toss the salad greens along with the cooked butternut squash, cucumber, and pomegranate seeds. Then top with avocado slices, cucumber and toasted almonds. I make my own dressing at home by combining EVOO and pomegranate vinegar. Pomegranates are natural beta blockers, and help reduce blood pressure.

Dear Joel

By Joel Markel

Obviously Not A Golfer

Dear Joel I moved from Queens, New York into an over-55 development in Monroe Township. Although my husband always enjoyed golf, it has now become an obsession of his. I sometimes feel as if I would have been better off staying in New York. I am bored and lonely while he is out enjoying himself. I sometimes feel as if I would have been better off staying in New York. Answer: In as much as it would be nice for your husband to be spending more time with you, he doesn’t have any obligation to do so. Many people would be very happy that their spouses have found pleasure in their retirement years. My suggestion to you is to find some-

thing that you enjoy. Many women in the over-55 developments play golf. I am certain that there is a school in the vicinity and you too can be swinging a club and enjoying the links. You gain nothing by blaming him for your boredom. Try something new and if that isn’t enjoyable try something different. You too deserve happiness in life. Our blaming others for our unhappiness gets us nowhere. Write to joel@preferredcares.com. His radio show, “Preferred Company” airs on Monday through Friday from 8 to 10 a.m. on preferredradio. com and 1160 & 1310 WOBM-AM

Homebuilder Beware: The Consequences Of The Appellate Court’s Gaccione Holding

Robert C. Shea Esq.

By Robert C. Shea, Esq. & Christopher R. Shea, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates

Any homeowner looking to build or modify a home should note that a new trend in New Jersey law now holds property owners liable for workplace injuries where the injury occurred on site, and the property owner assumed responsibilities normally reserved for a general contractor. This trend was solidified by the New Jersey Appellate Division case of Costa v. Gaccione, 408 N.J. Super. 362 (App. Div. 2009) where the Appellate Court held that since there was evidence to demonstrate a property owner on a construction project where Plaintiff was injured acted as the de facto general contractor, a genuine issues of material fact existed to warrant a trial on the property owner’s liability for the Plaintiff’s injuries. In Costa, an employee of a framing subcontractor fell and sustained serious injury when climbing makeshift scaffolding used on the construction project. The employee claimed that the property owner, Salvatore Gaccione (“Gaccione”), acted as the project general contractor, and that Gaccione’s failure to ensure worksite safety constituted negligence and a violation of OSHA. Regarding Gaccione’s role as the general contractor, the employee demonstrated that Gaccione obtained building permits as the project owner, but indicated on the permit form that he considered himself the “person responsible for the work.” In addition, Gaccione performed many of the general contractor functions on the project, such as hiring an architect and various subcontractors, scheduling subcontractors’ work and purchasing building materials. Gaccione also frequented the jobsite, oversaw the work and performed some managerial tasks. Nevertheless, the trial court granted Gaccione’s motion for summary judgment dismissing all claims against him. The trial court held that Gaccione did not have a duty to ascertain whether the scaffolding

posed a risk of injury and, instead, was entitled to rely on the sub- Christopher R. Shea Esq. contractor to oversee its employee’s work. The employee then appealed to the Appellate Div ision. O n appeal, the Appellate Division reversed the trial court’s holding, and found the facts of the case established that the homeowner had acted as the de facto contractor. Significantly, the homeowner visited the site daily, oversaw operations, purchased materials requested by builders, and actively discussed building plans with workers that he hired. The Appellate Division concluded that this evidence was sufficient to create genuine issues of material facts and ordered a trial to determine the issue of damages. The important lesson to be learned from the Costa case for perspective homebuilders is that taking on the responsibilities normally assumed of a general contractor, even in the absence of the official designation of such, may give rise to a duty of care to ensure worksite safety, and expose you to liability.

Downpours Didn’t Dampen Beach Sweep Volunteer Spirit

NEW JERSEY – Blustery winds and downpours didn’t stop more than 2,000 volunteers from participating in Clean Ocean Action’s (COA) 31st Annual Beach Sweeps at more than 70 sites from Essex to Cape May counties. Dedication to COA’s mission of ocean advocacy was clear as the drenched volunteers scoured the beaches for debris. The clean-up was the final for the 2016 Beach Sweeps season. Both spring and fall data will be compiled into an annual report released Spring 2017. At the Sandy Hook location, a traditional rally kicked off the morning’s activities featuring speakers from Bank of America and Bayshore Family of Companies, and recognized United Teletech Financial for also providing reusable gloves, which also provided much needed warmth for volunteers’ hands. Gateway National Recreational Area Superintendent Jen Nersesian welcomed everyone and introduced Denise Ryan, Deputy Director of the nation’s National Park Service (NPS), who visited Sandy Hook for the first time. “Our volunteers are the measure of excellence of the National Parks Service,” said Ryan to the over 250 Sandy Hook volunteers who braved the weather. “This was a Fall Beach Sweeps for the record books. Our remarkable Beach Captains, who lead clean-ups at over 70 locations, succeeded in garnering fantastic turnout, especially in Middlesex and Essex Counties where sites were ‘sold out’ for the first time. The Beach

Sweeps are an important and helpful way citizens can give back to the ocean, and show-off their Jersey Shore pride,” said Cindy Zipf, Executive Director of Clean Ocean Action. There were also strong turnouts at the Atlantic City Albany Avenue and Long Branch Pier Village sites. Beach Sweep Captains around the state called in with inspiring reports of dedicated volunteers who turned out despite harsh conditions. “Being a Beach Sweep Captain enables me to make a lasting contribution to my community and the environment,” said Blake Epstein, high school student and co-captain at the Snug Harbor site. “The data we collect and submit gives us hope; we can change what we do now and improve the future.” “Seeing thousands of volunteers from communities across 5 states come together to improve New Jersey’s watersheds is a powerful thing,” said Gianna Fischer, DW Bennett Fellow for Ocean Advocacy. “Sweeps offers an opportunity for volunteers of all ages and backgrounds to come together to take action against a threat that has put a valuable shared resource in danger. Our statewide citizen science experiment helps COA collect invaluable data that will help us better understand the world’s pollution problem and support us in our goal to enact powerful policies to help better protect the ocean.” Data results are dramatically lower due to wet data cards and challenging conditions. In fact, Beach Captains took many mea-

American Polish Club Trips

sures to dry out data cards, proving just how innovative COA’s Captains can be. Selected totals from the 250 Sandy Hook volunteers included: 1,017 plastic pieces, 782 caps and lids, and 772 candy and food wrappers, which are dramatically low numbers for this site. Throughout Beach Sweeps, volunteers are encouraged to note any out-of-the-ordinary finds. COA labels these finds, “The Roster of the Ridiculous.” Some of the items catalogued today included: $200 cash, a laundry basket, 12-inch long hair extensions, garden fencing, a large nest of netting material, a beach chair, and goggles. Beach Sweeps is made possible thanks to the statewide sponsorship of Aveda, Bank of America, Comcast, OceanFirst Foundation, and Shoprite, as well as many local supporters. “OceanFirst Foundation is proud to support Clean Ocean Action’s Beach Sweeps and do our part to help preserve and protect our coastal environment and the beautiful Jersey Shore beaches. They are a big part of what makes the communities special and we can’t thank Clean Ocean Action enough for caring for these natural treasures,” said Kathy Durante, Executive Director of OceanFirst Foundation. The 2015 Clean Ocean Action Beach Sweeps Annual Report can be downloaded at cleanoceanaction.org. Spring and fall Beach Sweeps are on April 22 and October 21 of 2017.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week NOVEMBER 5-NOVEMBER 11

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr. 19): Add to the foundation. A romantic prospect may already be set into a firm base but this week you may progress matters a little further. Decisions that require you to spend your hard earned cash should be put on hold. TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20): You are the anchor. Friends and loved ones see you as steady and reliable this week. They will not hesitate to come to you to guide them through difficult situations. Amid confusion and tensions, you calmly reach correct decision. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Pretty is as pretty does. Surround yourself with things that are bright, cheerful and pleasant to look at to create inspiration in the week ahead. People will be fascinated by your sense of style and good taste and put you in high demand. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Find your comfort zone. You will be at your best when doing familiar things that set your mind at ease. Stick with normal routines and schedules in the week ahead as shaking things up may leave you feeling flustered and overwhelmed. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Music hath charms to soothe the savage beast. A loved one may be on the war path this week but you know just the right words to calm them down. Investment opportunities may prove more harmful than helpful. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): There’s a time and a place for everything. Adopt the appropriate angle toward a situation and don’t try to mix business with pleasure. A special someone may have a lot to say this week and you would be wise to listen.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22.): Unsung love is still love. You and a partner may be in perfect sync without even needing to say a word in the week to come. Concentrate on matters of the heart and your love life as business and career endeavors may prove unsatisfying. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The world is not enough. Romance blossoms as you and a significant other forge a bond that borders on a spiritual plane. Use your best judgment and good taste to purchase items that are of lasting value and importance this week. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): A little push may be needed to get the ball rolling. Someone’s sage advice or glowing compliments may inspire you to accomplish something great this week. You’ll do far better when among other people than off on your own. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): If the shoe fits, wear it. You may acquire or discover something that only seems to appeal to you. If it makes you happy, that’s all that matters. It is not a good week to gamble with finances or make investments. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): What goes around comes around. Being sympathetic and kind will attract like-minded individuals who hope to share your positive energy. Frank and honest discussions may yield valuable new insights as this week unfolds. PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar. 20): Nobody is perfect. Don’t demand that someone live up to impossibly high ideals as you risk a swift backlash. A difficult situation may be easy to overcome if you keep your cool in the week ahead and avoid getting emotional.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen Curry Spices Up Dinner Between Holidays By Wolfgang Puck

CHICKEN CURRY WITH SWEET POTATOES AND DRIED FRUIT Serves 4

1/2 cup (125 mL) plain nonfat Greek yogurt, for serving 1/2 cup (125 mL) bottled sweet mango chutney, for serving (optional)

3 pounds (1.5 kg) bone-in chicken pieces, skin and visible fat removed 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus extra as needed 3 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, plus extra as needed 1 1/2 tablespoons dark brown sugar 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 2 medium yellow onions, sliced 1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic 1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger 1 tablespoon minced green jalapeno 1 bay leaf 1 tablespoon mild to medium store-bought curry powder 2 cups (500 mL) diced tomatoes 1 tablespoon tomato paste 1/4 cup (60 mL) seedless raisins 1/4 cup (60 mL) diced dried apricots 3/4 pound (375 g) orange-fleshed sweet potatoes or ruby yams, scrubbed and cut into 1-inch (2.5cm) cubes 3 cups (750 mL) organic low-sodium chicken broth 2 cups (500 mL) steamed brown basmati or regular brown rice 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish 1 tablespoon thinly sliced scallions, for garnish

Season the chicken pieces all over with 1/2 tablespoon of the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the black pepper. Set aside at room temperature. In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions and saute, stirring constantly, just until they turn glossy, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with the remaining 1 teaspoon salt and 2 1/2 teaspoons black pepper, and the brown sugar. Continue to saute, stirring, until the onions have turned soft but have not yet browned, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger, jalapeno, bay leaf, and curry powder. Saute, stirring, until the spices turn aromatic, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the seasoned chicken pieces, tomatoes, tomato paste, raisins, apricots, sweet potatoes and 2 cups (500 mL) of the broth. Slowly bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. As soon as the mixture boils, reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the sweet potatoes are tender, about 45 minutes, adding more broth as necessary to keep the curry moist. Taste and adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper. To serve, spoon the rice onto individual serving plates, spoon the chicken, sweet potatoes, fruit and sauce over it, and garnish with cilantro and scallions. Spoon the yogurt and chutney on top or pass them at the table as condiments.
