By Jennifer Peacock JACKSON – T he township rent leveling board flexed its muscles in 2016, levying fi nes against violators, but also hoping for a stronger local ordinance for the future, members said.

“One of the fines was levied due to years of offenses and another was two offenses but served as a reminder that breaches of the ordinance will not be tolerated,” Rent leveling board chairman Robert Skinner told The Jackson Times.

By Jennifer Peacock JACKSON – The number of nonpublic students bussed in Jackson is growing, and the school district is trying to f ig u re out how to create a joint busing agreement with the state-approved authority for Lakewood.

Gover nor Ch r is Christie signed legislation that took busing nonpublic school students out of control of Lakewood Township’s board of education and allowed a private organization, known as the Lakewood St udent Transportation Author it y, to receive f unds to transpor t those students.

The three-year pilot

program gives LSTA $2.4 million each year to transport nonpub-

holder John Bartlett said the purchase uses the county’s Natural Land Trust fund to buy land in need of preservation that is often at risk for development.

In the case of this tract, the parcel surrounds land already preserved but used for the park and campgrounds. This land will not be turned into more parkland but will be open space, said the freeholder,

who is the liaison to t h e O c e a n C o u nt y Parks Department.

“This was an attract ive pre se r vat ion ,” Bartlett said by phone recently. The Lynette Land Company owned much of the lots for the land buy.

The public hearing held late December paves the way for the county to pursue title searches and other paperwork before buying

lic students to their schools. There are nearly 30,000 nonpublic

school st udents in Lakewood, most from (Bus - See Page 4)

The Lakewood Student Transportation Authority will manage $2.4 million per year for three years to bus nonpublic school students. Jackson Township cannot contract with Lakewood private schools to transport nonpublic school students until it gets the state’s okay. Jackson currently has 334 nonpublic school students who have asked for transportation, a 62 percent rise from last year.

County To Buy Land Surrounding Scout Camp

By Catherine Galioto OCEAN COUNTY – The county is hoping to grow the amount of land preserved around the existing Wells Mills County Park, and plans to use $635,000 in open space funds to buy the 95 acres.

The purchase is near the county park and the scout campgrounds in western Barnegat and Waretown.

“We don’t care who we buy it from, the important part is does it fit the program and is the price right,” said the f reeholder.

Am I At Risk For Falls?

F

By Amie Gomez, DPT, Toms River Physical Therapist

alls have become a serious problem that older adults are facing at home and in the community. Falls are the leading cause of fatal injuries and nonfatal emergency room admissions in older adults. Unfortunately, the risk of falls is very high and increases with age.

For adults over the age of 80, half can expect a fall annually and about 50% can expect multiple falls. Falls can result in broken bones, muscle strains, brain injuries and can limit ones independence. The good news is that falling is not inevitable! There are various ways to assess your risk and methods to decrease your chances of falling.

WHAT ARE SOME RISK FACTORS THAT COULD CAUSE A FALL?

There are numerous risk factors for falls including poor balance, poor lower extremity strength and range of motion, decreased vision, improper footwear, medication side effects, fear of falling and slow walking speed just to name a few. I am going to take a few of those risk factors and break them down a little further for you.

After a fall many people become fearful of another fall so they stop doing activities that they feel are risky. While some activities are good to delegate to others, such as climbing on ladders or going into the attic, other activities should be able to be completed by you with no fear or anxiety, such as changing the bed sheets and light cooking. Avoiding certain behaviors and activities and decreased confidence in your balance have been known to be great predictors in falls. Typically, when a person begins avoiding activities due to fear of falling they slowly become less mobile, which in turn decrease strength and

range of motion therefore increasing the risk of a fall, not to mention decreasing the quality of life.

As we age, we lose about 1% of our strength every year. Core and leg strength are very important for being able to prevent and/or recover from a fall. If you are not performing a structured exercise routine you may be overlooking important muscles and therefore they are becoming weaker. Weak muscles will not be able to clear obstacles, stabilize on uneven ground, or keep upright posture as well as strong muscles leading to increases chances of falling. In the event of a fall, strong muscles will better support and protect your bones and make it easier to stand back up from the floor.

Many people are not aware of the fact that walking speed is a good way to measure fall risk. Slower gait speeds are typical of higher fall risk. While it is fine to walk at a comfortable speed during your average day, there are times when a quick, but safe, walking speed is important, such as in an emergency situation or when rushing to use the restroom. In those times when a person is walking at an increased rate the chances of a fall is higher. Due to the lack of practice, a change in a person’s average walking speed will also increase the chances of a fall. A person should be able to walk at varying speeds without compromising safety.

the clinic will allow the therapist to correct any mistakes they notice and you will feel more confident with the supportive staff at your side.

HOW CAN PHYSICAL THERAPY HELP ME?

The therapist can also work to simulate activities that you may have been avoiding, such as climbing steps, walking on uneven surfaces and performing housework. There is always a way to progress the balance activities as you improve such as adding an unstable surface, removing arm support, or taking away the visual component. The therapist may recommend the use of an assistive device (walker or cane) to increase your safety. If they believe that is the safest situation they are able to correctly adjust the height for maximum support and instruct you in the proper way to use the device. The therapist will continue to reassess your progress to help you reach your goals and decrease your risk of falling!

A physical therapist can help assess your fall risk by assisting you through some basic physical tests and having you fill out some questionnaires regarding your balance and confidence. Once you have been evaluated the PT can create a program that is tailored to your needs, most likely a combination of static and dynamic balance activities and strengthening exercises. Performing these activities in

When the legislation was signed, joint busing agreements Lakewood schools had with surrounding school districts were not renewed.

“Normally, one of our options would be to go to Lakewood public school district and go into a jointure with us for this particular run. It was one of our options,” Jackson schools communications coordinator Allison Erwin said. “What we’re still waiting to find out, we’ve asked the NJ Department of Education, are we allowed to recognize the LSTA as a ‘district?’ Is it one of the districts with which we’re allowed to go into a jointure?”

Under state law, school districts are responsible to provide transportation to nonpublic school students to their schools that are 2 to 20 miles from their home. Erwin believes the state will eventually give the OK for Jackson to form joint agreements with the LSTA. Erwin, who consulted with district business administrator Michelle Richardson, told The Jackson Times the district can accomplish this by several means: use district bus drivers to complete these routes; contract a private contractor to complete these routes; or enter a joint agreement with another district, with the bus managed by the other district.

Erwin said that if the options above cannot be accomplished within a certain cost established each year by the Department of

Education, then the district must offer the students aid in lieu of transportation. That maximum amount is $884 per student.

“This means that if a district cannot offer transportation for less than $884 per student for the year, the parents or guardians of that student would be entitled to receive $884 from the district and the parent or guardian would need to arrange for their own transportation.” Erwin said. “Here in Jackson, we utilize each of these methods in order to provide transportation to resident students who attend various non-public schools (e.g.

St. Aloysius, Donovan Catholic, private schools in Lakewood).”

Rise In Nonpublic Students This year, Jackson has 334 nonpublic school students to transport to their respective schools, costing the district $290,836.

Of those 334 students, 145 get “aid in lieu of” payments from the district, totaling $128,180.

To bus its own students to its schools, Jackson spent $9.7 million in 2015-16 to transport Jackson’s nearly 9,000 students.

There was a 62 percent increase in nonpublic school students seeking transportation from the last school year, with 210 nonpublic students, of which 118 were getting “aid in lieu of” benefits. The total cost to the district last year was $171,113.

Erwin said the increase in nonpublic school student transportation will be discussed in the upcoming district budget workshops.

Although she said there were no specific figures available, she knows the transportation line item will increase again for the upcoming budget year.

The December hearing also asked the public whether the county should pursue several other land buys: A small parcel in Beachwood surrounding government offices there. The two small lots are less than a quarter acre in size.

County would buy for $500.

purchase the county made there. $105,000 price.

A controversial development site slated for multi-family apartments off Route 9 in Berkeley. The 13-acre site from Berkeley Family Apartments will instead be preserved as open space. It adjoins the Florence T. Allen nature preserve and Mill Creek. Of the $865,000 price, half of that will be paid by the county and the remaining through the National Trust for Public Land.

Bartlett said the county will move forward to purchase each tract.

Rent:

Continued From Page 1 we have made great strides.”

The largest fine was imposed on Prospect Pointe, for $6,000, due to an “excessive delay in providing all information necessary to properly conduct a hearing and due to the excessive work required of the board’s accountant,” according to minutes of the board’s January 28, 2016 meeting. The hearing was for matters since 2014.

The fine money was put into the township’s general fund, and established a precedent for future violations. Attorney Brian Rumpf said if violators fail to pay, resolutions made in favor of a landlord could be invalidated due to noncompliance.

“The board looked at the ordinance more carefully, and things were brought to light.

The apartment complex was not in compliance for some time,” board member Diane DiCapua said. She and her husband John manage Jackson Acres. “The board and accountant had to go over and above to work on that application.”

The board was established in 2001 with the abolishment of two other boards, the apartment rent leveling board and mobile home park rent leveling board. The nine-member, three-alternate board approves rent increases as outlined in chapter 334 of the municipal code. Violations can be fined up to $2,000 or 90 days’ imprisonment per offense.

The current code still refers to the “township committee,” although the township form of government changed in 2006.

Skinner, who was again appointed board chairman, and other members want to work with council to craft a more powerful ordinance to expand the board’s powers.

“I want the ability to investigate properties,” board member Ed Bannon said.

“Right now, everything is left to code enforcement. When it gets done, if it gets done, we are often not even told. We should be able to go and directly assess fi nes because we saw it ourselves.”

Board member Ray Schleckser, a resident of Maple Glen, said there are rental proper-

The Jackson Times, January 21, 2017, Page 5 ties that fall under the board’s jurisdiction that aren’t registered with the township.

The board attorney has sent out letters to properties requesting that they report if they fall under the rent control guidelines, as not all rentals do.

Skinner has his list of things he’d like to accomplish this year. He said that list includes: “Discussions with liaisons on council to explore our duties and to improve the service of our board to the community.”

Also: to work more closely with administration and other departments; to identify other entities which may fall under the rent control guidelines; to improve the entire rent control application process, including having newly created application forms placed online and to encourage more tenants to apply with no fears.

Skinner praised elected officials and the board’s work. “Despite the incredible bashing both mayor and council have received - the Rent Leveling Board (as well as other boards who volunteer at the pleasure of Mayor Michael Reina), has been essential to being a voice of the people, with many backgrounds being represented,” Skinner said. “Real estate professionals, a property manager, homeowner association members, banking professionals, landlords, homeowners and tenants have all given their time to the improvement of our community by serving our boards. My board has been steadfast in making sure we always remain neutral, fair and honest in our opinions.”

Gary Miller, board member, said the Jackson rent leveling board is the most “progressive in the state,” and very fair to both landlords and tenant.

The rent leveling board meets at 7:30 p.m. in the main meeting room at the municipal building, 95 W. Veterans Highway. The board will meet January 26, February 9 and 23, March 9 and 23, April 13 and 27, May 11 and 25, June 8 and 22, July 13 and 27, August 10 and 24, September 14 and 28, October 12 and 26, November 9, December 14 and 28, and January 11, 2018 for reorganization.

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY Letters To The Editor

FEATURED LETTER Fix The State Instead Of The Statehouse The New Jersey Libertarian Party opposes Governor Christie’s proposed $300 million renovation of the statehouse.

W hile New Jersey citizens are exploited by high taxes and our children suffer from inadequate education, it is unfathomable for politicians to be wasting taxpayer dollars on their own opulence.

Christie says portions of the statehouse are in danger of a “catastrophic failure.” The real catastrophic failu re is what happens inside the statehouse.

While Republicans and Democrats quibble over inconsequential distractions New Jersey veers closer and closer to insolvency.

Christie argues the building must be protected because “It was passed down, literally, by our founding fathers.” The true legacy of New Jersey’s found-

ing fathers is standing up for liberty. Yet today most New Jerseyans enjoy neither the liberty nor the prosperity espoused by our state motto.

“To leave the statehouse in this condition is an embarrassment,” Christie says, “and quite frankly it’s shameful.”

To the citizens of New Jersey the most embarrassing and shameful part of the statehouse is the corruption and waste of taxpayer money it produces year after year.

The statehouse is a symbol of everything broken by the two-party system in New Jersey.

Before we fix a playground for politicians let’s fix the state itself.

Libertarians are New Jersey’s third largest and fastest-growing party.

We believe liberty is the foundation of justice and a peaceful, prosperous America.

Do The Youth Really Need To Protest T he ele ct ion is ove r and we have a new president-elect. We the people had a choice and a decision was reached. The choice was the fi rst woman or a man who was not a part of the political machine.

The man lacked in political background and the woman was loaded with old baggage. It was a hardfought battle and the man won.

So Donald Trump will be our new president. The odds were against him.

Letters To The Editorone of its kind in the entire The pollsters said he didn’t Fire Company stand a chance. He fooled them and won. There are those who cannot accept the fact that Hillary Clinton lost. But she did, so accept the fact and go on.

Many of our young people will not accept the facts and have decided to protest. There is nothing wrong with protesting as long as these young people stay within the “law” and don’t destroy other people’s property. There are certain organizations that are also against the new president. They too are having the children do their work. We are a country that was founded on Free Speech, again, as long as the law is not broken.

Time will pass and this movement will fi zzle out.

If the youth really want to help, get behind our new president and help the country to grow stronger rather than ripping it apart.

Never forget the country comes first and it is our duty to protect it. It is okay to protest, but know when you have lost, and accept it.

As far as depor tation of those who entered the country illegally, give the president-elect the time to enter office and see what his programs are. Then, if you wish to, protest. The young have put the cart before the horse.

So I say to the young, go back to school and learn, and give our new president a chance to get on his feet before you fi nd fault.

Veterans’ Memorial Unique In Country On behalf of everyone at the New Jersey Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial Foundation (NJVVMF) and those we serve, best wishes for health and prosperity as we enter a brand new year.

Each year at this time, I am grateful for the opportunity to remind New Jersey residents about a wonderful state resource — and the opportunity to support that resource — the New Jersey Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial, Vietnam Era Museum and Educational Center.

The New Jersey Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial pays tribute to the 1,563 New Jerseyans who did not return home from the Vietnam War. It’s located on the grounds of the PNC Bank Arts Center at Exit 116 Garden State Parkway, Holmdel. Last year, we were honored to welcome both Lt. Governor Kim Guadagno and State Senate President Steve Sweeney at Foundation events honoring their roles in establishing and supporting our site—the only

country.

2016 marked fifty years since I first landed in Vietnam after being drafted by the U.S. Army. As Executive Director of the New Jersey Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial Foundation, I join our board, staff and volunteers in fulfilling and advancing our mission. Together, we offer experiences at the memorial and adjacent museum that recognize the sacrifices, courage and valor of Vietnam veterans.

NJVVMF operates an important and unique place where we educate all ages on the Vietnam War era through ceremonies, exhibitions, events and programs. Letters, artifacts and video testimonies share rare, personal experiences. Visitors learn history from those who lived it, through our free, Vietnam veteran volunteer-led tours.

Each year we work with more than 9,000 school children and educators. Their time with the veterans is life changing for both the students and guides. Our veterans have also helped those of more recent wars through projects like our Huey helicopter restoration and Combat Paper Project.

Our community should know that as a not-for-profit organization, NJVVMF is self-sustaining and we need the public’s support, both financially and through participation, to exist. With your help, we will preserve the legacy and continue to honor both those who served, and our active duty service men and women. Please remember us as we remember them.

Interested residents may check line 61 on the New Jersey State tax form to make a self-designated donation.

We greatly appreciate this support.

From The Desk Of The Ocean County Freeholders: Freeholders Cheer Yankees-Comcast Agreement; Still Call On Cable Company To Credit Customers For Missed Season

OCEA N COU NT Y – While the Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders cheered an agreement between Comcast and the YES Network that will return Yankees games to many televisions this season, they stopped short of calling the settlement a complete win for fans.

The Freeholders are still asking Comcast to issue customer credits for the loss of the YES Network for the

entire 2016 baseball season.

“Comcast saved more than $4.8 million last year by not paying for the rights to broadcast Yankees games.

This money should be returned to customers in the form of a credit,” Freeholder Director Joseph H. Vicari said.

Vicari said the Freeholders repeatedly called on the telecommunications giant to issue the credits last year and renewed their effort

soon after the Comcast-Yes Network agreement was announced this week.”

In a January 5 letter to Robert F. Smith, regional vice-president of Community Investment, the Freeholders reiterated their request.

“We believed then, and still believe today, that this money should be returned to customers through a credit in each bill,” the Freeholders said in the let-

ter. “Comcast customers continued to pay a monthly fee for the YES Network as part of their normal cable bill yet did not enjoy the channel for more than a year. It is not fair that your company profited from the loss of a service that many of our residents had come to depend on.”

Vicari said watching baseball and other sports is a quality of life issue, and is especially important to

senior citizens.

“I know many seniors who watch sports every night.” he said. “It’s entertainment that they should not have been deprived of because of corporate greed. Now is the time for Comcast to make amends and issue a credit.”

The agreement between Comcast and YES will return Yankees games to local televisions by the start, or early into the 2017 season, which begins in April.

Basketball fans will also benefit because Brooklyn Nets games will also resume broadcasting at the same time.

“While we, and all sports fans, look forward to watching the upcoming season, that doesn’t mean the ordeal of 2016’s blackout should be forgotten,” said Freeholder Deputy Director Gerry P. Little. “Comcast needs to step up to the plate and issue those credits.”

Sound Objections

Here are a few reasons why millions of Americans will do anything to avoid wearing a hearing aid: 1: Vanity - It’s a sign of getting older and most people can’t deal with the combination of wearing glasses and other more pressing medical problems. This leads to denial in many cases. In reality, today’s hearing aids are almost invisible so vanity should not really be an issue!

2: Denial - Hearing loss is an invisible handicap that can be partially compensated for many years. A typical person who finally gets fitted for a hearing aid has waited seven years. Obviously, a lot of yelling has occurred over those years along with typical statements such as “you’re mumbling,” “I don’t always pay attention,” and “just speak up and I will hear you.” Your family needs to be honest and direct with the hearing-impaired individual so he/she can overcome denial/objections.

3: Money - Unfortunately, most insurance plans do not cover hearing aids. According to the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, the average cost for a pair of hearing aids is $2,800. Some insurance companies such as Aetna US Healthcare and Horizon have a small benefit ranging from $500 to $750. Since the average hearing aid lasts five years, you are spending about $1 per day (per ear) to hear better.

4: Unrealistic Expectations - We all want to hear “normally” again, but realistically,

hearing aids can only compensate for hearing loss just as eye glasses compensate for vision deficits. The word “aid” does not mean “normal” but it should suggest assistance in your ability to hear in most environments.

5: Too Many Appointments -- Better hearing takes time and patience since your brain has to adjust to all of the new sounds that you will be hearing again. Since a large majority of consumers are being fit with digital or programmable instruments, several fine-tuning sessions with a computer are required to maximize the benefits of the instrument.

Most hearing health-care professionals offer at least a 30-day trial period to account for the necessary adjustments required to accomplish “better hearing.”

6: You can make yourself crazy -- For most, you may not like your hearing aids for the first week. You may complain about “everything being too sharp” or “my own voice sounds like a bad record.” However, after wearing your hearing aids consistently for several weeks, you will hopefully appreciate the “sweet nothings” that are important to you, like your son’s jokes, your spouse kibitzing, your grandchildren’s gestures or beautiful music.

In summary, forget about vanity and cost and stick it in your ear. Please don’t wait seven years to face the music since this may be the first time (in a long time) that you will finally hear and understand those that you love!

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.

Bartley Healthcare is partnering with Centrastate Medical Center to host an educational seminar to inform the community on how to make lifestyle adjustments that can help participants to compensate for attention and memory loss. Join them to learn about how the memory works, why it changes, and what people can do to help remember the things that they forget.

Bartley is hosting the seminar at The Orchards at Bartley Assisted Living. The Orchards Assisted Living is located at 100 N. County Line Road in Jackson. The seminar will be in two parts. Part One will be on January 23 from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m., and Part Two will be at the same time on January 25. The presenter will be Marilyn Abrahamson from Centrastate Medical Center. Abrahamson is a Speech-Language Pathologist at Centrastate

Medical Center.

Thirteen percent of Americans, aged 60 and older, reported worsening memory loss or confusion in the previous year. One in 8 seniors reported this memory loss. The lifestyle habits that participants will learn from this seminar will help them to delay the symptoms of age-related cognitive decline. Delaying these symptoms can serve to help people maintain independence for as long as possible, or even return to work, play, and the enjoyment of every day.

Seating is limited, so anyone interested in attending the “Memory Changes As We Age” educational seminar, call Centrastate Medical Center at 732-308-0570, or visit centrastate. com, and click on Classes and Events. There will be refreshments served.

Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Three Tips To Help You Stay Sober

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

I feel like every family including mine has someone who is an alcoholic, and wishes they could stop drinking. One of my relatives has struggled with alcoholism and drug addiction since he was 14. Now, over 60 years of age, he’s still suffering. I’m sure out of the millions of you who read my articles each week, some of you actually WANT help, and need hope. I’ll give you that today. The actual part of “quitting” is not as hard as staying sober thereafter.

So if you’ve made it your New Year’s resolution to stop drinking, or stop taking sedatives, sleeping pills or tranquilizers, here is some important research and information that I want to share: 1. You must have patience. Failure occurs when people give up instead of bearing with it, and holding on.

Those receptors in your brain can, and do heal. You see, if you drink (or take benzodiazepine sedatives), the GABA receptors on your cells are atrophied.

This means the little areas on your cells that hug GABA and pull it into your cell are dead. It’s called downregulation if you want to look it up. Time is the only thing that will allow those receptors to regrow and heal. This is why you have to be patient and have faith. The receptor sites will upregulate.

2. Supplements and medications usually backfi re. The chemistry of addiction is such that these feel-good endorphins are needed constantly. So when you suddenly stop getting endorphins (in the form of alcohol, antidepressants, benzodiazepines, opiates like hydrocodone or heroin), your cells starve. The

“happy” brain chemicals aren’t there anymore.

Conventional medicine’s answer to this is to prescribe medications quickly because it restores some feel-good endorphins. The problem with this (and this is common sense if you think about it) is if your receptors are downregulated, the new medication will obviously backfire. The key is to re-sensitize your receptors, not push production of endorphins, there’s nowhere for them to go, their levels spike causing terrible side effects.

3. Use micro doses of anything you want to try. Supplements that may help raise GABA are available without prescription. I don’t recommend any of them early in withdrawal, but maybe after a few months. Micro dosing is key to testing any supplement you want to try.

Supplements that support your GAD enzyme are most helpful because the GAD enzyme forms the calming neurotransmitter called GABA. It’s GABA that is elevated when you drink. Two inexpensive, over-the-counter nutrients can support the GAD enzyme, and they are lysine and P5P (pyridoxal 5 phosphate) but there’s a trick to taking those.

I have some more incredible information about GAD and alcohol and benzo recovery. If you would like read my extended article, I have to email it to you. Just go to my website suzycohen. com and sign up for my free newsletter.

Hang on and stay focused, I believe you can heal if you give it enough time.

Most people unfortunately give up too soon because they don’t know what I’ve just taught you. Share my article and help someone you love.

Court Appointed Advocates And A Birthday Wish Partner For Abuse And Neglected Children

TOMS RIVER – Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) of Ocean County and A Birthday Wish have partnered to help children who have been abused or neglected.

Currently, there are nearly 750 of these child ren an nually in Ocean Cou nt y living in out of home placement, with more needing cour t advocacy ever y year. CASA of Ocean County exists to recruit, train and supervise community volunteers to work one-on-one with these children, advocating for their best interests in the court system. Essentially, CASA volunteers “speak up” for these children in the court and child welfare systems, making sure they are safe and well-cared for, are getting the services they need, and are placed in a permanent, safe, nurturing home as quickly as possible.

A Birthday Wish, located in Westfield, New Jersey, will bring some joy to the child ren ser ved by CASA of Ocean County by granting each child’s birthday wish. Founded by Jane Hoffman in 2014, A Birthday Wish grants the birthday wishes of children in New Jersey foster care. To date, they have granted well over 1,000 birthday wishes throughout ten New Jersey counties. “Many of these children are victims of abuse or neglect, some have lost a parent, they need to know they matter on their birthday,” says Hoffman, who was inspired to start the nonprofit when she learned that many children and teens in foster care don’t

receive a gift on their birthday.

“We are very excited to partner with A Birthday Wish, they will assist us in making sure the children we serve thrive while living in foster care,” says Executive Director of CASA of Ocean County, Vicki Weiss. CASA of Ocean County will be the seventh partnership with A Birthday Wish and looks forward to the unique opportunity to grant birthday wishes to foster children in Ocean County.

CASA of Ocean County is part of a statewide network of community-based, nonprofit programs that recruit, screen, train and supervise volunteers to “Speak Up for a Child” removed from home due to abuse or neglect. CASA is the only program in New Jersey that uses trained volunteers to work one-on-one with children, ensuring that each one gets the services needed and achieves permanency in a safe, nurturing home.

Visit casaofoceancounty.org for more information about CASA of Ocean County.

A Birthday Wish was founded with the steadfast commitment to let each child in New Jersey foster care know that they are special and that their life truly matters. A Birthday Wish exists to give children in New Jersey foster care a birthday gift and card selected specifically for them. In the process, A Birthday Wish works to raise awareness about the issues surrounding foster care and advocate for better ways to serve these wonderful children. For more information on A Birthday Wish visit ABirthdayWish.org.

Dear Joel

By Joel Markel

Cash Rules Everything Around Me

Dear Joel, My wife is a compulsive spender. Half the groceries she buys end up in the garbage. We have enough canned goods to last us for years. When I go into her closets, the amount of items that have new tickets hanging off of them is appalling. The same goes for her shoes. When it comes to holidays, she treats everyone with the same over-indulgence. I look at the credit card bills and am sickened by the wasted dollars each month.

Answer: While it sounds as if there is a problem, you don’t tell me whether or not she works and is spending her own money.

Without knowing whether or not she

contributes to household expenses, I don’t want to judge her behavior.

There are many people who buy luxury cars, and that may add up to significantly more than what she is spending. As I don’t get a perfect read on what is truly going on in your home, I will suggest counseling if what you are describing is truly a disorder.

There are medications that could help if it is compulsive behavior. Best of luck.

900 Ocean County Area Children May Need To Be Revaccinated

OCEAN COUNTY – Approximately 900 children who participated in a free or lowcost vaccine program in Ocean County may need to be revaccinated because the vaccine they received may not have been properly refrigerated.

The children participated in the Vaccines for Children (VFC) program, a federally funded, state operated program that provides 1.6 million free or low-cost vaccines to eligible low-income children at more than 1,000 medical offices around the state each year.

The Department of Health is mailing letters to impacted families whose children were vaccinated at Southern Ocean Pediatrics and Family Medicine in Manahawkin, which is the medical office of Dr. Michael Bleiman. The Department suspended shipment of VFC vaccine

to Dr. Bleiman on July 28, 2016, when, during a routine compliance visit, problems with refrigeration temperatures were discovered.

Late this afternoon, the state fi led a complaint with the State Board of Medical Examiners alleging gross negligence, professional misconduct and other violations

by Dr. ‎ Bleiman.

Vaccine that has not been properly refrigerated under the recommendation of the manufacturer may be less effective.

Children who receive these vaccines might not be fully protected against vaccine-preventable diseases, according to the guidelines of the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Receiving improperly-stored vaccines is not a danger to the health of the recipient.

However, according to the CDC guide-

lines, exposure to temperatures outside the manufacturer’s recommended range can make vaccines less effective at preventing disease.

Parents may want to discuss revaccination with a health care provider. The vaccines the children received include measles, mumps, rubella, chickenpox, hepatitis A & B, rotavirus, DTaP/Tdap, Hib, pneumococcal, polio, meningococcal and HPV. As part of an investigation, the VFC program determined that the temperature problems may have occurred as early as November 2014. The children who should be evaluated for revaccination were vaccinated between November 2014 and July 28, 2016.

As part of an ongoing investigation, the Department made referrals to and

is working with the New Jersey Board of Medical Examiners, the Medicaid Fraud Division in the Office of the State Comptroller; and the Medicaid program in the New Jersey Department of Human Services.

Families enrolled in Medicaid Managed Care Organizations should contact their health plan for assistance in providing an in-network provider. Parents or guardians of uninsured children can contact Federally Qualified Health Centers in the area, including the Center for Health Education, Medicine & Dentistry (CHEMED) in Lakewood and Ocean Health Initiatives in Lakewood. In addition, Southern Ocean Medical Center in Manahawkin, which is part of Hackensack Meridian Health, will also be setting up a hotline to help families evaluate the need for revaccination.

R.C. Shea & Assoc.

Inside The Law Delay, Deny And Defend

Robert C. Shea Esq.

By Robert C. Shea, Esq. & Michael J. Deem of R.C. Shea & Associates Insurance companies are operated by accountants with little or no regard for the human consequences of injuries caused by their insureds or businesses. Their motive is to “delay, deny and defend” and they are the real perpetrators of insurance fraud. “The bottom line is that insurance companies make money when they don’t pay claims…They’ll do anything to avoid paying, because if they wait long enough, they know the policyholders will die.” – Mary Beth Senkewicz, former senior executive at the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC).

When the insurance company calls you following an accident, their representative will seem sympathetic and tell you how sorry they are that you were injured. Then they will send you a pre-written, form letter expressing their concerns. At this time you are now formerly known to the insurance company as Claim #1233456000. The insurance company’s only real concern is to figure a way to profit from the premiums that you have paid over the years by not paying your claim.

This is why you need to immediately call an experienced attorney to understand you legal rights. The insurance company will not voluntarily tell you all of your legal rights, since doing so will cost them money.

As an experienced attorney, we at R.C. Shea & Associates have become obsessed with exposing insurance companies’ deceptive practices and the junk science they espouse through their hired guns to defeat their insured’s legitimate claims. By calling upon the experienced attorneys at R.C. Shea & Associates, our job is to present the truth to the jury, and to effectively

counter defense tactics to Michael J. Deem Esq. distort the truth.

If you find yourself injured as a result of an automobile collision, ask your insurance company about your right to medical expense benefits, income continuation benefits (in the event you cannot work) and essential service benefits (in the event you cannot perform household chores). If you have been injured in a trip and fall accident, you may have a right to extended medical expense benefits (Med-Pay) from the owner/occupier of the property where you were injured.

Have you limited your right to seek compensation for the pain and suffering that was inflicted upon you by an irresponsible party?

If you cannot answer this question then the answer is probably “yes.” Ask your insurance company why you have the Limitation on Lawsuit Option (Verbal Threshold) in your automobile insurance policy and ask them why you don’t know that such a limitation is in your policy. You will be surprised to learn that you could have avoided this (verbal threshold) trap had your insurance company told you, up front, that for a small increase in your premium you could have elected an unlimited right to pursue compensation for pain, suffering and future medical expenses.

Don’t be a victim by getting caught-up in the insurance company’s trap. Don’t let them delay, deny and defend your legitimate claim.

Call us for a free analysis of your automobile insurance policy.

Our clients’ success is our greatest reward.

She and her family are currently living in an apartment in Brick. She works as an executive assistant at Summit Home Health Care and also works per diem as a nurse.

After seven years of working her way through any social programs she qualified for, things are turning around for her this year. A large group of volunteers, civic organizations, government entities and businesses came together.

By the end of the year, she’ll be living in her own house.

The Northern Ocean Habitat for Humanity will be building a new home for her on a lot on First Avenue in Toms River, near Garfield Avenue. The build is a culmination of work from a number of government agencies, volunteer groups, and local businesses, executive director Suzan Fichtner said.

On January 14, a ceremony was held on the property, in the cold morning hours before it started to f lurry. Rodriguez was there with her daughters, Kamiah, 10, and Izabella, 11. They were given shovels to symbolically turn over the first bits of earth.

cluded representatives from most of the groups that had brought the project this far. There was an invocation, remarks from local officials, and a proclamation from Rep. Thomas MacArthur (R-3rd).

A Beachwood family who had been the recipient of a previous home were also in at tendance. Representatives from M&T Bank were also on hand.

With locations in Lakehurst and Toms River, they have been the top funder of the Habitat homes for a few years, Ficht ner said. Radio st at ion WJ R Z worked with them on a fundraiser at the Ocean County Mall. There, volunteers and construction professionals actually built the walls for the home in the mall’s parking lot. The walls were framed and stood over the course of a weekend as a visual aid for the f undraiser. The walls were later taken down and stored elsewhere.

Rodriguez had volunteered at Solutions To End Poverty Soon, and was later h i red a s a rece pt ion ist t here.

Through this chain of events she came into contact with the Northern Ocean Habitat for Humanity.

“This is a family that is doing everything right, but it takes a lot of resilience,” Fichtner said. “The foundation of life begins with the stability of a home.”

The ambitious goal is to have the family in their home in six months, she said. For that, more fundraising has to be done. They are currently at $75,000. T he ther mometer d rawing used to visually show donations goes up to $150,000, but she said that the final price of everything will likely be closer to $120,000 or $130,000.

That is just for the price of the house itself. In Ocean County, land can often be more expensive.

Fortunately, Toms River was able to find an undersized lot on First Avenue that could be a good place for a home, Mayor Thomas Kelaher said.

The property came into the township’s ownership by way of a tax foreclosure, he said. It was a substandard lot, so there was no real market value for it.

Builders would not want to go through the application process necessar y to build a small house on an undersized lot.

Therefore, Habitat became a welcome partner in being able to take a useless lot and provide a good use for it, he said.

However, this is just one family finding an affordable place to live. Kelaher acknowledged that there are many more who are struggling.

Toms River has provided for thousands of affordable homes, he said.

Every town in New Jersey is required to set aside a portion of development for affordable housing. However, a lot of people’s troubles depend on the job market, he said.

“There’s a job deficit in the county,” he said, describing the mass exodus every morning as residents pile onto the Garden State Parkway to get to work.

Some young people are moving out of the area to find jobs, he added.

The Northern Ocean Habitat for Humanity usually builds one home a year for deserving families, Fichtner said.

This year, there will likely be t wo.

A lot of them, recently, have been in the Manitou Park section of Berkeley Township. In fact, the day before the groundbreaking, the group closed on another property. Although it’s in Manitou, it is also on First Avenue.

This is the 18th home that the Northern Ocean Habitat for Humanity will be constructing, according to the group.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast

For the week of jANUARY 21 - jANUARY 27

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You have the ability to rock even as you shock. Focus on the latest technology and most advanced ideas. You may become frustrated by mundane tasks and routines in the week to come.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Wait for it. You may be blessed by an almost magical ability to execute some shrewd business and financial plans in the middle of the week. A partner might have some excellent ideas.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You might be thrown into contact with deceptive people or frustrating situations as this week unfolds. Monday is the best day to ask for advice or feedback to sort the wheat from chaff.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Friends and group activities could dominate the week ahead. You appear friendly and approachable so may be bombarded by distracting conversations. A partner shares your goals.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Building blocks can be cemented by friendships. As this week goes by you might meet people who share your interests and ideas. Get some feedback about how to reach business and financial goals.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Think ahead. In the beginning of the week you might be impressed by someone or something that is merely a passing whim. Put your faith in people who have proved themselves trustworthy.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Exercise good judgment and tactfulness. It is much too easy to get caught up in a wild goose chase in the week ahead. A partner will not be able to accept suggestions or criticisms gracefully.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Hold your piggy bank close to your chest. In the week ahead there may be several situations that could prove costly. Don’t spend your hard earned cents unless it reflects sound business sense.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your heroes might prove to be zeros. In the week ahead you might be challenged to differentiate between the worthwhile and misleading. Remain in focus to achieve meaningful goals.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You may be called upon to navigate social functions and distracted from what is really important. There may be an excellent opportunity mid-week to make a money making idea fly.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Every nickel counts. There may be an opportunity to improve your financial situation this week.

You must carefully weigh the added responsibilities and avoid long term debt loads.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): There may be opportunities to showcase your talents this week. Yet if you accept new responsibilities they may stretch your talents too far. Get advice before accepting new obligations.

Kale Me, Maybe: Trends Come And Go, But Kale Has Staying Power

By Wolfgang Puck

In the new year, many food writers like to discuss the latest trends or what’s hot and what’s not. And lately, I’ve been seeing too many articles saying that kale, that crinkly, earthy, slightly bitter, and highly nutritious dark green has already enjoyed its moment in the culinary sun; that it should start disappearing from our menus and tables, especially in salads.

I think that banishing kale is a terrible idea. Yes, it’s hard to find a restaurant menu or supermarket produce shelf today that doesn’t feature kale. But the fact that it’s everywhere should no more be a reason for us to start ignoring kale than, say, deciding that we won’t eat chicken or pasta because everybody is serving those ingredients.

I myself love the flavor and texture of kale; and as someone who tries every day to make smart food choices, I don’t want to stop eating such a generous source of not only dietary fiber and vitamins, but also micronutrients that research has found can play a role in helping to prevent so many illnesses.

As I see it, the trouble with kale is that too many people don’t know the right way to shop for and prepare it. Many people find the leaves too tough or bitter. That’s why you should not only look for tenderer, milder-tasting baby kale leaves, but also take care to remove any tough stems or veins or ribs from them. And, as you’ll learn in the following recipe for one of my favorite kale salads, it also makes sense to complement the flavor of the leaves with a tangy-sweet dressing like the mixture I prefer of cider vinegar, honey, olive oil and a touch of walnut oil.

Finally, I add to the kale other complementary flavors, textures and colors - pale leaves of curly endive and beautiful purpleand-white radicchio, matchsticks of apple, shavings of Parmesan cheese, and candied walnuts that are so easy and delicious that you’ll want to make batches of them regularly.

The result is a salad that looks as beautiful as it tastes delicious and fresh. I think you’ll feel happy to serve it as a first course. You can certainly vary it too - maybe crumbling in some blue cheese or feta in place of the Parmesan shavings, or candying a different kind of nut such as pecans or hazelnut pieces. If you like, you could top it with grilled or broiled seafood or chicken for a main-dish salad. Whichever way you enjoy it, you can be sure you’re benefitting your health - not to mention defying the opinions of the so-called food trend experts!

BABY KALE SALAD WITH APPLES, PARMESAN AND CANDIED WALNUTS Serves 4 CANDIED WALNUTS: 1 egg white 1 cup (250 mL) coarsely chopped raw shelled walnuts 1/4 cup (60 mL) granulated sugar 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper CIDER-HONEY DRESSING: 2 tablespoons cider vinegar 1 tablespoon honey, plus more as needed Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 1/4 cup (60 mL) extra-virgin olive oil 1 tablespoon walnut oil BABY KALE SALAD: 6 cups (1.5 L) baby kale leaves, stemmed, any tough veins or ribs removed, larger leaves torn into bite-sized pieces 1 head curly endive, stemmed, leaves torn into bite-sized pieces 6 leaves radicchio, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch (12-mm) ribbons 1/2 lemon 1 apple, peeled, cored, sliced and cut into matchstick-sized strips 2 ounces (60 g) Parmesan cheese, cut into shavings with a vegetable peeler First, prepare the walnuts. Preheat the oven to 450 F (230 C). In a medium bowl, whisk the egg white until foamy. Put the walnuts in a large bowl, add 1 tablespoon of the egg whites, and sprinkle in the sugar, cinnamon and cayenne. Stir to coat the walnuts. Spread the nuts on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Cool the nuts to room temperature, then gently separate them. Set aside.

For the dressing, put the vinegar and honey in a bowl and whisk until blended. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Whisking continuously, slowly pour in the olive and walnut oils. Taste and, if necessary to balance the acidity, stir in a little more honey.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the kale, curly endive and radicchio. In a separate bowl, squeeze just enough of the lemon over the apple pieces to coat them, and toss thoroughly.Add the apples to the salad and toss well.Add just enough of the vinaigrette to coat the ingredients and toss again. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Mound the salad mixture on chilled serving plates. Scatter the walnuts evenly over and around the salad. Top with Parmesan shavings.
