L AKEHURST H ISTORICAL M USEUM K EEPS H INDENBURG H ISTORY A LIVE
By Jennifer Peacock LAKEHUST – The display occupies an area under the stained-glass window in memory of Thomas and Catherine Whalen and Family. It’s one lighted case beneath that window, a case that can’t be opened to examine the items inside, and table filled with books to the right of the case. There are photographs and newspaper clippings pinned to the walls and sitting on the windowsill. On the northern side of the building, there are newspaper clippings, some from papers that no longer exist. It’s a small part of the Lakehurst Historical Society’s museum, which occupies the Old St. John’s Church, itself Ocean County’s oldest Roman Catholic Church. But the Hindenburg remains a giant in the borough’s history. “You go anywhere and mention that you’re from Lakehurst, so many people associate that with the Hindenburg,” historical society volunteer Aurora Semple said. But, she added,

THE HINDENBURG: A STAR AMONG Mayor To Present THE AIRSHIP TOURISM INDUSTRY Manchester Budget April 24 By Judy Smestad-Nunn OCEAN COUNTY – On the evening of May 6, 1937, hundreds if not thousands of spectators gathered at the Naval Air Station in Lakehu rst to watch the docking of the LZ129 Hindenburg, an 803-foot-long airship that offered the most luxurious air travel the world had ever seen. At the time, the railroad ran special excursion t rains f rom Jersey City to watch the airships dock, said Kevin Pace, a trustee a nd t he i m me d iat e past president of the Navy Lakehurst His-
torical Society. “Lakehurst was the airship capital of the world, and watching an airship dock was a very big thing of interest, like in modern day when people would go to Cape Canaveral
for a launch. There would be concessions stands set up, and huge crowds. It was a big event,” he said. Many have seen the footage from that night, which was the f irst disaster captured on
motion picture film: as it maneuvered, the Hindenburg’s forward and aft engines idled while the forward landing line was lowered and water ballast was dropped to lighten the (Tourism - See Page 28)

By Jennifer Peacock MANCHESTER – For the second year in a row, Manchester residents will likely see a slight decrease in their municipal tax bills. Manchester Township CFO Diane Lapp told The Manchester Times the average homeowner will see a $6 decrease in those t axes, f rom $1,031 to $1,025. “I am very, very happy with the way things are going,” she said. She credited Mayor
Kenneth Palmer with finding conservative, responsible ways for funding much-needed items and services while also looking for cuts that don’t compromise those things for residents and staff. The budget presentation will be held at 6 p.m. on April 24 at the municipal building, 1 Colonial Drive. A public hearing and fi nal budget adoption is slated for May 8 at 6 p.m. The projected 2017 (Budget - See Page 4)

Werthwein – said the museum would likely see a bump in visitors with the 80th anniversary of the Hindenburg tragedy approaching. On May 3, 1937, the Hindenburg left Frankfurt, Germany, and made its threeday journey across the Atlantic to Lakehurst, carrying 36 passengers and 61 crew members. An advertisement discovered by Cummings revealed the price for that transatlantic trip was $400, about $7,000 per ticket in today’s dollars. Waiting for storms to clear from the area, the Hindenburg made its fi nal approach to Lakehurst around 7 p.m. on May 6. Eyewitness accounts have always varied, but about 25 minutes after arriving, the dirigible – the largest ever built – burst into fl ames, crashing to the ground in less than a minute. Thirteen passengers, 22 crewmen, and one civilian ground
Budget:
Continued From Page 1 budget is $33,906,697.45, an increase of $603,338.87 over 2016’s $33,303,358.58 budget. However, the tax levy will see a decrease of $76,381.70 from 2016’s $21,246,283.15 to this year’s proposed $21,169,901.45. “This year’s budget is a f lat budget.

municipal rates since 2013, so we’re very proud of that,” Palmer said. The levy has decreased despite the police department adding two officers. The township has also implemented its paving plan and capital improvement plan. “And even with all that, we’re still finding ways to do more with the same amount of money,” Palmer said. The mayor added that there are no
cuts, but a number of savings in this budget. Manchester found savings through the state health plan, now seeing all union members contributing to their benefits. Revenues have increased as well because “Manchester is getting a little busier,” the mayor said. “We have a lot of building going on, so our inspections have gone up.

The town is doing very well.” The consolidation of the Department of Public Works and Utilities department, as well as br inging in an inhouse HVAC and electrical work has produced savings, he added. Full details of the 2017 budget will be presented on April 24.

Lakewood BlueClaws Gear Up For 2017 Season
By Chris Lundy LAKEWOOD – Now in their 17th year, the Lakewood BlueClaws are growing, adding new teammates and new entertainment and food options for patrons, officials said. The team, a minor league aff iliate of the Philadelphia Phillies, is headquartered out of First Energy Park in Lakewood. T h e o p e n i ng g a m e of t h e s e a s o n kicked off on April 13. They were up against the Greensboro Grasshoppers, which are aff iliated with the Miami Marlins. Ultimately, the local team lost 2-0, but the crowd had a good time, the team spokesman said. The fans really do get into the game here. It was a good crowd , about 6,870 people. A few different factors went i nto ma k i ng it the biggest openi ng night since 2009. The most important factor was the weather. As spring has f i n al ly b e e n bre a k i ng t h roug h t he winter weather, people wanted to get out and enjoy the sun. Additionally, a lot of people were off on Good Friday, so the Thursday game was a popular destination. New Players The team is strong as ever, officials reported. They are expecting big things from two new prospects. One is Mickey Moniak, an 18-year-old centerfielder from California who was
the first overall pick. He was batting .302. Another is Sixto Sanchez, also 18, who is a pitcher from the Dominican Republic. He has been featured on many baseball websites as a player to watch. New Food Several new food options are being added to the stadium this season. The new Dugout Bar is open along the third base concourse and will feature a variety of beer, including craft, domestic and premium drafts. There is also a variety of white and red wine selections. The Grand Slam Grill is now open,
ser ving t raditional ballpark fare as well as newer favorites such as hot d og s , h a m b u r ge r s , ch icke n d r u m mettes, mac & cheese bites, ice cream and Italian ice. T h r e e fo o d t r uck s h ave t a ke n u p semi-permanent residence at the stadiu m. T he Empanad a Guy, Fork i n the Road and Jake’s Crab Shack will be set up on the concourse of every home game. New Entertainment When the players aren’t on the field, other entertainment will be available. The TD Bank Summer Concert Series will share dates with eight Saturday
home games, beginning May 27. The doors open two hours before the game for the concert. The stadium will still have fireworks shows after Friday shows, as well as games on May 28, July 3 and Sept. 3. The 14 fireworks shows will also have themes for the f irst time this year. They include Musicals, Billy Joel, 90s Disney, Star Wars and more. Tickets and Scheduling One thing that hasn’t changed is the price of tickets. They are still $13 for adults and $10 for juniors and seniors.

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY Letters To The Editor
F eAtuReD L etteR The Burning Of Our Flag What is going on in our country? To protest is one thing, but to burn our f lag is a sin. From 1776, men and women have given up their lives to protect the f lag. The f lag is a symbol of what makes our country great. I do believe in all our freedoms, but to disrespect the f lag is in a category of its own. To burn the f lag is a disrespect for our country. The f lag is more than a piece of cloth with stars and stripes. It is almost the foundation of our nation. We have fought many wars to p r ot e c t ou r c ou nt r y and our f lag, and we will go on protecting the homeland and the f lag. W h at r ig ht do these people have to
destroy the f lag? Have they no love of country and the f lag? What is it they do respect? These are the people who would never spill a drop of blood to protect what is so dear to us. People have the right to protest within the l aw. Eve n t h o u g h it may be legal to bur n the f lag, it is wrong. It is a slap in the face to every American. Yes, we have our freedoms, but no one should abuse the rights we have been given. I have great love for ou r cou nt r y a nd ou r f lag. Let us pass a law that forbids the burni ng of the f lag. It is our duty to protect our f lag. Herb Greenberg, Jr. Brick

Imagine All The People I’d like to share a simple solution for the unsettling over-development that is happening all over Brick Township and other parts of Ocean County. The concept is grassroots democracy: decisions are made by people who are affected by them. Policy should be created, approved and implemented by the people it affects. For example if a developer proposes a Wawa on the corner near the busy, populated Lake Riviera neighborhood, it’s my belief that the people living in the neighborhood who will be affected by this development should decide whether or not to rezone the property and allow it. Why should unelected, well-connected, political appointments make this decision? I don’t see any legitimate reason why local zoning decisions can’t be made on a grassroots level, democratically, by the people who will be affected most, not by political appointees with very little at stake. Imagine if these decisions could be made by the people affected. Imagine. Maybe this is an idealist, utopian vision of a society in which everyone has a say, a voice, and some power, but this is what Greens in NJ and across the US are fighting for. Maybe I’m a dreamer. I hope I’m not the only one. Alfred Clayton Chairperson, Green Party of Ocean County Brick
Letters To the The religiousEditor needs of the the future realities facing Volunteers’ Kindness May Save Lives On Saturday, April 1, the American Red Cross in conjunction with the Whiting Fire Department and many volunteers came through Pine Ridge at Crestwood and replaced or provided smoke alarm batteries. If that wonderful act of kindness saves one mobile home from going up in smoke, it will have been a deed surely worth doing. I am so appreciative of the youth that came to my door and realized I did not have a smoke alarm either in my bedroom or my second bedroom and the one next to my bedroom was dead so I was given three new smoke alarms in addition to replacing one battery in another area. These are volunteers who go all over the state of New Jersey and enlist the local fire departments to assist them. Hats off to you all. And, this is no April Fool’s joke! Bette Kooreman Whiting

children and the possibility of establishing a church in Cassville. Through his efforts, the Cassville fi re house was rented for the children once a week by Trenton-based nuns. The Eucharist was fi rst offered on November 3, 1952, in the Cassville fire house. Around the same time, the area saw an influx of Hispanics, and the Claretian leaders from Our Lady of Fatima Parish in Perth Amboy established a mission. Masses were held in a chicken coop on a property located on West Veteran’s Highway. On August 25, 1991, the parish was renamed St. Monica Mission. The diocese ended St. Monica’s status as a mission parish in October 2001 and restored the original name of the church making it a Stand-Alone parish within the diocese. The mission of St. Monica located at 679 West Veteran’s Hwy, Route 528 is to teach the message of Christ and provide outreach for the needy in the par ish and com munit y. Teaching the message of Ch r ist is accomplished by rea ch i ng out to al l within the com munit y: young and old, Catholic and non-Catholic through example and through the ef for t s of t he va r iou s parish organizations. St. Monica’s reaches out to meet the needs of the community spiritually, adult and children’s religious education, sacramental preparation, assistance to needy, bereavement counseling and ministering to homebou nd. Act iv it ies include food drives, holiday food baskets for needy families, AA and cooked meals for the sick. Jackson, the largest municipality in Ocean County is 100.6 square miles, a huge area and responsibility for one parish to support spiritually and servicing the needy. Last year the Diocese of Trenton initiated the Faith in Our Future (FIOF) initiative to best determine
the Diocese and the Catholic Church. These issues include the decline in the number of Catholics, as well as the dwindling resources that will be available due to the number of priests that will reach retirement age in the next 8-10 years and fewer men who are pursuing priestly vocations. Additionally, fewer pa r ish ioners a re par ticipating in weekly Mass, the sacraments and collections are down. The preliminary recommendation of the Diocesan Planning Commission was for a merger of the two Catholic Parishes in Jackson. The FIOF core group of St. Monica’s held a town meeting to solicit the input of its parishioners to assist them in preparing a fi nal response to the preliminary recommendation. The fi nal response was submitted to the Diocese in October 2016 and in January the bishop announced all his decisions for the Diocese. As a result, St. Monica would remain unchanged and its status would be periodically reviewed going forward. Part of this rationale is that St. Monica’s, under the guidance and direction of Fr. Alex Enriquez and Deacons Mike Principato, Christian K noebel, and Gene Moir, has been the exception. Since July 1, 2013, the Parish has been growing while maintaining fi nancial stability. With the immediate future of St Monica clarified, the clergy, staff and parishioners are proactively developing a plan titled “St. Monica Vision 2020” focu si ng on t he longer-term development of goals and objectives that will be required to keep St. Monica’s a Jackson fi xture for years to come.

Recycling Continues To Pay In Ocean County From The Desk Of The
Ocean County Freeholders OCEAN COUNTY – The Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders will distribute almost $600,000 in recycling revenue sharing to municipalities participating in the county’s recycling program. “An increase in the average price of some commodities like aluminum and old newspapers and an increase in the tonnage of recyclables collected has resulted in this revenue amount,” said Ocean County Freeholder Gerry P. Little, who is liaison to the county’s recycling program. “By recycling, our residents are helping
the environment and their communities.” Under the Ocean County Recycling Revenue Sharing Program, municipalities are provided a portion of the recycling revenues based on the amount recycled and the market price of the material. “Ocean County residents continue to embrace recycling at home,” said Ocean County Freeholder Director Joseph H. Vicari. “The Ocean County Department of Solid Waste Management with Freeholder Little do an outstanding job in making certain recycling prog rams are available
and easily accessible to everyone.” The $597,920 is from the second half of 2016 when municipalities collected 43,077 tons of recyclables. The payout for the period was $13.88 per ton. Du r ing the f irst half of 2016, Ocean County collected 37,883 tons of recyclables with a payout of $2.57 per ton. “Recycli ng i n Ocean County continues to provide a host of environmental and economic benefits,” Little said. “One of the greatest benefits is keeping the material out of the landfill and preserving the space there. “As a result of these recycling efforts, municipalities collectively saved $3.2 million in the second half of 2016 by not dumping those materials in the landfill where they would have to pay a tipping fee,”
Little said. “That is a substantial savings.” Little noted that since Ocean County began the Recycling Revenue Sharing program in 1995, the County has returned more than $16 million to its municipalities. The amount ret ur ned to the towns, under the revenue sharing program is based on the amount of recyclables collected and brought to the County and the price per commodity in the current market. “These prices change all the time,” Little said. “During the first half of 2017 we saw a decline in some prices. The second half came with some better numbers. It is the county’s intention to be able to return money to our towns.” For instance, aluminum is up $428 to $1,223 per ton, while colored plastic is down $24 to $413 per
ton and old newspapers are up $37 a ton to $121 in comparison to the same period in 2015 when the payout per ton was $6.45. Little said towns can use the money as needed although many invest it back into the recycling program. The largest recycling revenue sharing checks will go to Toms River, Lakewood, Brick, Stafford and Jackson townships. “And, while these are the county’s largest municipalities, I applaud all of ou r tow ns, even the smallest, for their ongoing recycling efforts,” Little said.

Ocean County Freeholders Recognize April As Autism Awareness Month OCEA N COU N T Y – St udies show that New Jer sey ha s t he h ig hest rate of autism in the entire country, with one out of every 41 children born today being diagnosed with autism, according to Parents of Autistic Children of New Jersey (POAC). To raise awareness and highlight the importance of autism education, the Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders will recognize the month of April as “Autism Awareness Month.” “As a lifelong educator, I have seen the difference e a rly i nt e r ve nt ion ca n make and want to encoura ge a l l O c e a n C ou nt y residents to par ticipate in our County’s National Autism Awareness Month activities to become better educated about aut ism
spectrum disorders,” said Ocean County Freeholder Director Joseph H. Vicari. “The Ocean County Office for Individuals with Disabilities is one of the resou rces available for informing the community on issues per taining to this disorder.” Vicari noted that it’s estimated more than 3.5 million individuals in the United States have autism. “It’s a priority that we take care of the frail, the elderly and the disabled,” Vicari said. “Highlighting this developmental disability provides important information that can help families and caregivers of children that have autism spectrum disorder.” The Centers for Disease Control states that people with autism spectrum d isorde r s (ASD) of t e n
have problems with social, emotional and communication skills. They might repeat certain behaviors and might not want change in their daily activities. Many people with ASD also have different ways of learning, paying attention or reacting to things. Research shows that early intervention services can greatly improve a child’s development, even though there is no cure for ASD. Events will be taking place th roug hout the month to highlight Autism Awareness. POAC is hosting “Walk for a Difference” scheduled to take place at 11 a.m. on April 23 at First Energy Park in Lakewood. For more information on the walk, visit poacwalk. org or call 732-785-1099.

Manchester Police Blotter
MANCHESTER – Manchester Township Police made 16 arrests from April 2 to 7. Of those arrests, five involved possession of controlled dangerous substances, nine were for warrants, two were for theft and one was for burglary. The burglary arrestee, from Lacey Township, was apprehended in Waretown and transferred to the Ocean County Jail. Two other Manchester men did not post bail and were also remanded to the Ocean County Jail on warrants charges. On April 7 at approximately 9:31 p.m., Manchester Township Police Officers responded to reports of a structure fire at 3 Kingfisher Way, in the Pine Ridge section of Whiting. When officers arrived on the scene, they reported that the residence was fully involved and observed flames protruding from the roof. They immediately confirmed that the residence was unoccupied and continued to evacuate the surrounding residences that were threatened by the fire. Firefighters from the Whiting, Manchester, Ridgeway and Lakehurst Borough Volunteer Fire Departments, as well as fi refi ghters from the Joint Base Fire Department responded to the scene and extinguished the fire. Once the fire was extinguished, it was learned that five dogs inside of the residence perished in the fire. They were removed by a Manchester Township Animal Control Officer. EMTs from Quality Medical Transport, who also responded to the scene, evaluated the homeowner of 3 Kingfisher Way for a burn to her hand and the homeowner of 160 Mockingbird Way for minor smoke inhalation. After evaluation, both parties were transported to Community Medical Center in Toms River for additional treatment and evaluation. Once the scene was secure and deemed safe, the Manchester Township Building Inspector determined that the dwelling was uninhabitable and the occupant was relocated with family. Neighboring 160 Mockingbird Way sustained minor heat damage but was determined to be habitable. The exact cause and origin of the fire is currently being investigated by the Ocean County Fire Marshall’s office, the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office and Manchester Police Detective Richard Jupinka. On April 11 at approximately 6:05 p.m., the Manchester Township Police Department responded to Nature Way in the area of Harry Wright Lake to investigate a vehicle fire. Upon arrival, offi cers observed a 2013 BMW 328 slightly off the roadway and against a tree, fully engulfed in flames. The
fire was quickly extinguished by firefighters from the Whiting Volunteer Fire Company and the New Jersey State Forest Fire Services, who had arrived on the scene to assist. The initial investigation revealed that the BMW, which was being operated by a 17-year-old Whiting female, was traveling south on Roosevelt City Road when it made a left turn onto Nature Drive, left the roadway and struck a tree. The vehicle then began to smoke and then caught fire. The juvenile driver was able to safely exit the vehicle and did not sustain any injuries during the crash or subsequent fire. Also assisting at the scene were EMTs from Quality Medical Transport. The crash is being investigated by Patrolman Collins of the Manchester Township Police Patrol Bureau. On April 12 at approximately 9:14 p.m., Manchester Township Police responded to reports of a crash involving a motorcycle on Route 70 near Roosevelt City Road in the Whiting section of town. Arriving at the scene, officers observed a 1994 Chevrolet Prism driven by a 19-yearold Pemberton man that had crashed into the rear of a 2004 Harley Davidson motorcycle. The investigation revealed that the motorcycle was traveling westbound on Route 70 and had slowed down to make a left hand turn on to Roosevelt City Road when it was suddenly struck in the rear by the Chevrolet, which was traveling in the same direction. As a result of the impact, the motorcycle driver, a 65-year-old Whiting man, was ejected. The motorcycle driver was unconscious and without a pulse when police arrived. CPR was immediately administered by police and first aid, but the victim ultimately succumbed to his injuries. Both occupants of the Chevrolet were wearing seatbelts at the time of the crash. They complained of pain from the impact and were seen by first aid, but refused transport to the hospital. The driver of the motorcycle was also wearing a helmet. The area of Route 70 involved in the crash was closed for several hours during the rescue and cleanup. Assisting at the scene were members of the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office, the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office Crime Scene Investigation (CSI) Unit, the Ocean County Medical Examiner’s Offi ce, the Whiting Volunteer Fire Department, Quality Medical Transport, MONOC Paramedics and the NJ State Highway Diversion Team. The cause of the crash is under investigation at this time. This crash is being investigated by Sergeant Ellis and Ptl. Anderson of the Manchester Police Department’s Traffic Safety Unit.

Alzheimer’s And Hearing Loss: Early Detection May Alleviate Symptoms According to a study attributed to the Alzheimer’s Association (AA), in conjunction with the Better Hearing Institute (BHI), strong evidence suggests that hearing impairment contributes to the progression of mental impairment in older adults. What is Alzheimer’s? Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive and fatal brain disease that affects behavior, cognition and memory loss in over 26 million people worldwide. Alzheimer’s is typically diagnosed in individuals age 65 and older. The number of those affected is expected to rapidly increase as our nation’s aging population explodes over the next 30 years. When hearing loss or impairment goes undetected, it can interrupt the brain’s understanding of spoken language and sounds. When someone is experiencing both Alzheimer’s and hearing loss symptoms, their ability to understand can sharply decrease. If their hearing issues were diagnosed and treated earlier, the means of successfully managing the disease increase. The BHI’s research has discovered that people with Alzheimer’s who regularly wear hearing devices in combination with a consistently practiced aural retraining therapy program are able to diminish the wide range of Alzheimer’s symptoms. If you are concerned
that you or a loved one might be experiencing the early warning signs of Alzheimer’s, it is recommended that you maintain your regular hearing evaluations. Working with your hearing health care professional to detect these warning signs as early as possible is a critical first step in confirming an accurate diagnosis and creating an effective long-term plan of treatment for Alzheimer’s and hearing loss. Ten Signs To Watch Out For The Alzheimer’s Early Detection Alliance (AEDA) campaign, “Know The Ten Signs: Early Detection Matters,” is working to identify the early signs of Alzheimer’s. According to the AEDA, the 10 signs to watch for include: 1. Memory changes that disrupt daily life 2. Challenges in planning or solving problems 3. Difficulty completing familiar tasks 4. Confusion with time or place 5. Trouble understanding visual images and special relationship 6. New problems with words in speaking or writing 7. Misplacing things and losing ability to retrace steps 8. Decreased or poor judgment 9. Withdrawal from work or social activities 10. Changes in mood or personality
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. Expanded Whiting Hours!

How People Die from Nerve Gas By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
When the news broke of the chemical attack on Syrian civilians and babies, we were all disturbed and shocked that a weapon of mass destruction was unleashed. Sarin is its name and it’s 26 times more potent than cyanide. Being a curious sort, I looked it up to see what the mechanism of action was, as well as the antidote to Sarin. With radiation, research supports greens (dulse, chlorella, spirulina, etc.) or perhaps some iodine supplements. None of that works for Sarin though. I did something I shouldn’t have. People who are empathetic should not be allowed to google images of such an attack! I can’t unsee the damage done by Sarin and other nerve agents. Ugh. This neurotoxin was outlawed in the 1990’s. It’s in the same Schedule 1 category like LSD, heroin, marijuana, GHB and Ecstasy. It doesn’t work like those, it’s just categorized with them. Sarin blocks an enzyme in the human body called acetylcholinesterase (ACHE) that normally breaks down your memory neurotransmitter called “acetylcholine.” So some ACHE is good, as it supports learning and memory. In fact, memory supplements always put ingredients in their formula to gently block ACHE, so again, a bit more acetylcholine is fine. Too much will kill you. Sarin shuts down ACHE completely, so acetylcholine levels skyrocket within minutes. This is the same mechanism of action that bug spray and malathion utilizes. Most insecticides block ACHE, so Sarin is essentially just human insecticide. If you walk by it and inhale it, you wouldn’t even know because you can’t see it or smell
it. Death occurs within 5 or 10 minutes. But how you wonder? When acetylcholine increases, your muscles cramp. Like most pesticide poisonings, SLUDGE occurs which stands for: Salivation, Lacrimation, Urination, Defecation, Gastrointestinal distress, then Emesis (vomiting). Twitching and jerking occurs, then the lungs cramp, paralyzing the airways. It’s death by chemical asphyxiation. Hosing off the children with water reduces skin exposure slightly. I still see those images from the news of babies being hosed off and thrown into a truck. The watering down of people will certainly dilute the poison and possibly prolong life, but then you have to ask yourself, what kind of life will that person now lead? Neurological consequences cannot be healed. A total recovery is possible if exposure is low, not a lethal dose., and mainly, if recognition occurs. Remember Sarin (and many nerve gases) are completely colorless and odorless, and you could walk right past someone who had a little on their clothes 30 minutes ago, and it will poison you. Survival requires the antidote which is usually atropine (but sometimes pralidoxime). These are drugs classified as “anticholinergics.” Atropine is a drug in the U.S. used to treat pesticide poisoning, tachycardia, overactive bladder and pupil dilation (yes, it comes as an eye drop). FYI, many herbs and over-the-counter medications have similar, but weaker anticholinergic properties. So now you’re better informed as you watch the news, and here’s hoping we never face that kind of brutality in our country. May those who perished rest in peace.

Know Your Health Risks During National Minority Health Month
NEW JERSEY – While heart disease and stroke are top health threats for all Americans, statistics show that these diseases disproportionately affect minorities. April is National Minority Health Month and the American Heart Association and American Stroke Association wants the public to know their risks and how they can work to prevent heart disease and stroke. While some risk factors can’t be changed – like age, family history, race, and gender – others can be modified with simple lifestyle changes. For instance, high blood pressure, obesity, and diabetes can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke, but may be controlled by working with a doctor to know their numbers, eating a heart-healthy diet and being more physically active. “Make every effort to make healthy lifestyle changes,” said Aliya Frances Browne, D.O. FACC, board certified clinical cardiologist and spokesperson for the American Heart Association and American Stroke Association. “Studies suggest that working with your healthcare provider to manage your numbers, eat healthy and exercise more may reduce risk for heart disease and stroke by up to 80 percent.” African Americans and Hispanics have a different prevalence of risk factors for heart disease and stroke. More than 75 percent of Hispanics, age 20 and older, are considered overweight or obese, while nearly 30 percent of Hispanics suffer from diabetes. African Americans are disproportionately affected by obesity, with over 63 percent of men and 77 percent of women being overweight. While cardiovascular disease remains the No.1 killer of all women, minority women are even more affected by heart disease and stroke. For instance, African American women face higher risks for high blood pressure, diabetes and stroke, and nearly 49 percent have cardiovascular disease. According to the American Heart Association, Hispanic women on average are likely to develop heart disease 10 years earlier than non-Hispanics. Blacks and Hispanics are less likely to achieve blood pressure control, even though exercise can greatly reduce these risks. According to the American Heart Association, only 20 percent of African Americans and Hispanics that are seeing a specialist for hard-to-control blood pressure are taking their medicine properly. They can start to live better with Life’s Simple 7, a seven step list that will help manage their health. Start with one or two items on the list and go from there, just a few small changes can make a huge difference in their lives. Manage Blood Pressure When blood pressure stays within healthy ranges, people reduce the strain on their hearts, arteries, and kidneys which keeps them healthier longer. Control Cholesterol When people control their cholesterol, they are giving their arteries their best chance to remain clear of blockages. Reduce Blood Sugar Most of the food people eat is turned into glucose (or blood sugar) that their bodies use for energy. Over time, high levels of blood sugar can damage the heart, kidneys, eyes and nerves. Get Active Living an active life is one of the most rewarding gifts people can give themselves
and those they love. Simply put, daily physical activity increases their length and quality of life. Eat Better A healthy diet is one of the best weapons for fighting cardiovascular disease. When people eat a heart-healthy diet, they improve their chances for feeling good and staying healthy – for life.
Lose Weight When people shed extra fat and unnecessary pounds, they reduce the burden on their hearts, lungs, blood vessels and skeletons. Stop Smoking Cigarette smokers have a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease. If people smoke, quitting is the best thing they can do for their health.
People have more power than they can imagine. They have the power to break down barriers and play a vital role against heart disease and stroke. By adopting a healthy lifestyle, which includes stress management, good nutrition and physical activity, they can save their lives.

Dear Joel
By Joel Markel
Fast Food, Free Coffee And Dawdling Seniors A Bad Mix
Dear Joel, There are some seniors out there who give seniors a bad name. I recently met some friends for breakfast at McDonald’s. I left after finishing my breakfast and coffee and found out that the group had stayed there till after 2 p.m.! That’s four hours of sitting around, drinking free refills of coffee. We seniors appreciate the courtesy that some places offer us, but there are some who abuse those privileges and make us seem like cheap pests. I’d like your opinion. Shamed senior in Absecon Dear Shamed, Good for you! You’re right, no one should abuse the courtesies they’re offered. There are many places that are happy to offer special pricing and accommodations to seniors, but you can’t blame their patience for wearing thin. There are lots of great alternatives to hanging around a restaurant all day. If the group
doesn’t want to meet in a home, does your town have a senior center or community hall? Libraries have great meeting rooms and activities, even free movies on certain days. It would also be nice if the ladies got together to do some volunteer work, like visiting other seniors, or making up goodie bags for soldiers. The group could also participate in gardening clubs, historic societies, or a whole slew of other hobby driven activities. Why not suggest some? You could also invite the ladies over to your home with a strict time limit of two hours. Maybe they’ll learn that less is more and that being retired doesn’t have to be a recipe for stagnation.

Inside The Law Check Your Auto Insurance Policy For Verbal Threshold By Robert C. Shea, Esq. & Christopher R. Shea, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates
Under New Jersey law, a person who simply fails to indicate their insurance preference is automatically assigned the Verbal Threshold limitation on lawsuits. This limitation severely affects an injured person’s ability to seek just compensation for injuries resulting from an auto accident. In fact, under the holding of Oswin v Shaw, a plaintiff who elects Verbal Threshold is required to demonstrate, without regard to medical expenses, that his injury fits within one of the recognized categories under the Automobile Insurance Cost Reduction Act, or “AICRA” for short. Under AICRA, the law states that, damages for non-economic losses must stem from bodily injury arising from the use, ownership, operation or maintenance of an automobile in New Jersey that results from one of the following: (1) death; (2) dismemberment; (3) significant disfigurement of scarring; (4) displacement fractures; (5) loss of a fetus; (6) a permanent injury within a reasonable degree of medical probability. Further, a person who elects Verbal Threshold must also satisfy the tort option provisions contained within New Jersey Stat ute 39:6A-8(a).

This certification requires a doctor to state, based on objective clinical evidence and under penalty of perjury, that the injured plaintiff has sustained an injury that is included in one of the above six statutory categories.

Tourism:
Continued From Page 1 craft. The line descended toward members of the ground crew - sailors and civilians employed under the federal Works Progress Administration, who waited to connect it to mooring cables. There were 139 civilians being paid $1 an hour to help the Navy crews with the landing lines. At 7:25 p.m. the Hindenburg caught fire and quickly became engulfed in f lames. Eyewitnesses said that the tail section went down and the nose went up as the f lames consumed the gas. Fire rushed out of the airship’s nose like a blow torch. The airship bu rst into f lames and crashed to the ground within 70 seconds. The engines were still idling as the front passengers and crew members were jumping from the Hindenburg, some 200-300 feet above the ground. Others simply fell through the burned airship. The Hindenbu rg had room for 70 passengers, but it was only carrying 36 during the crash. Of those, 13 died along with 22 of the 61 crew members, plus one person on the ground. Its commander, Captain Max Pruss, survived. Director of Ocean County Business Development and Tourism Dana Lancellotti said that when she holds out-oftown promotional events, they promote the historical event and “people make a beeline for our table, and the Navy Lakehurst Historical Society brochure is very popular.” “We feature the airship on our website, and we promote the anniversary as par t of ou r tou r ism promotion,” Lancellotti said. “It’s an interesting part of our history and not your typical type of tourism event.” That’s true, said Pace. There is still a lot of interest in the event, and while the public isn’t allowed to gather at the site because of security concerns at the air base, that’s not to say the tragedy has been forgotten. An annual wreath-laying memorial ceremony is planned for May 6 for dignitaries, military personnel and others who had registered for the service.
A sold-out 80th Anniversary Memorial Dinner is planned for the Clarion Hotel in Toms River for May 5 when 220 attendees will hear two people who f lew on the Hindenburg in past f lights as featured speakers. On April 30, a PowerPoint program presented by the Navy Lakehurst Histor ical Societ y, “Remember ing The Hindenburg 80 Years Later” is planned for Jakes Branch County Park, along with the rededication of a 20-foot mural of the Hindenburg that had previously hung in the McDonald’s in Lakehurst. The artist, Cathleen Englesen, will be on hand to discuss the mural, which is permanently housed in the nature center there. The Heritage Center Museum is located on the base and has an airship display spanning the years of 1921 to 1962, said Pace, who is the curator of the airship display. Approximately 4,500 visitors toured the museum last year. Some tourists visit the museum and base because of the Hindenburg disaster, but many come to see the museum’s large display on Vietnam POWs, he said. “We have a lot of Vietnam veterans passing through, and pilots, f light crews and others who were associated with Lakehurst and are taking a sentimental look back,” he said. “Some tell us stories. They bring and donate artifacts, and because of that we have a tremendous amount of model ships and aircraft.” Tours are available of the base and the Heritage Center Museum by registering two weeks in advance at nlhs.com, and they are conducted on the second Saturday of the month in the winter and on the second and fourth Saturdays during the summer. The Ocean County Historical Society in Toms River has a permanent Hindenburg display, including artifacts from the airship and more. Airships, although not the Hindenburg, have graced the town of Lakehurst in various ways, helping to forge the town’s identity. An airship insignia appears on signs welcoming people to the borough of Lakehurst. It also appears on the sides of Lakehurst police cars, letterheads, and - before the paint wore off and cell phone antennas were installed - on the Lakehurst water tower. Also, there used to be an Airship Tavern
in Lakehurst. Airship Storage is still in business, and a Lakehurst motel still uses the image of an airship of their sign. The only nod to the Hindenburg disaster were uniform patches once used by the Lakehurst volunteer fire department that showed the airship in f lames since they responded to the fire 80 years ago, Pace said. On the other side of the Atlantic, the airships are also a tourism destination. “In Friedrichshafen, Germany there is a big tourist attraction. It’s major. That’s where airship tourism is. The Zeppelin Company is headquartered there and it’s still in existence. It never closed,” Pace said. Airship aficionados visit the Zeppelin Museum on the top f loor of the Friedrichshafen Town Hall where they have built a replica of sections of the Hindenburg, including passenger compartments and the dining room. The museum also has some remains of the Hindenburg the nose cone, a propeller, engine and pieces of scorched girders. There were hundreds of dirigibles taking off and landing at Lakehurst, starting in 1923 with American Navy airships. The first passenger-carrying ai rship was the G raf Zeppeli n, the Hindenburg’s sister ship, which landed in Lakehurst several times bet ween 1928-1930. Then there was a six year gap until the 10 landings of the Hindenburg in 1936. The 1937 disaster was the first passenger-carrying f light of that year, and a total of 18 were scheduled, Pace said.
“It’s a business that’s fading away. There are only one or two companies in the world that still make dirigibles,” Pace said. “Zeppelin is strictly a branding company. Zeppelins are only built by the Zeppelin company.” The rigid fr ame airships were the pride of the German aircraft industry. Travel in Zeppelins had begun in 1928 and was trendy and expensive: a one-way ticket on the Hindenburg cost about the same as the average annual salary of a German at the time. The other regular Zeppelin route was between Frankfurt and Rio de Janeiro, which cost even more. According to Airships Magazine, the Hindenburg cruised at about 80 miles per hour, much faster than ships at sea without the discomfort of seasickness, according to promotional material. Travel time between Lakehurst and the European terminal at Frankfurt-AmMein averaged 52 hours eastbound and 65 hours westbound, propelled by four 1,000 horsepower Daimler-Benz diesel engines. The Hindenburg was gigantic, some 800 feet long and 10 stories high with the swastikas of Hitler’s Germany painted on the tail fins. Seven million cubic feet of highly f lammable hydrogen was divided into 16 huge lifting cells above passengers’ heads that was used to lift the airship. The airship was supposed to be the first of 40 to 50 Zeppelins to be built by 1947, but its destruction marked the end of “silver whales” in commercial aviation and was the symbolic finale of an era.
–Photos by Judy Smestad-Nunn Clips from the Asbury Park Press detailing the Hindenburg disaster are on display at the Ocean County Historical Society.

Documentary Film Highlights The Hijab
JACKSON – In commemoration of the Islamic month of Ramadan, the Ocean County Library is pleased to present a documentary film titled “Under One Sky: Arab Women in North American Talk about the Hijab” on June 12 at 7 p.m. Is the hijab—the veil associated with Muslim women—a symbol of oppression, an emblem of cultural identity, a combination of these two elements, or something else altogether? Arab women living in North America explain the ideologies behind the veil, as they tear away the labels imposed by both East and West.
The film is available through the Ocean County Library database Access Video on Demand and runtime is 44 minutes. After the film is a Q&A with Mariam Jalabi, Director, Syrian National Coalition, United Nations. This program is sponsored by the Ocean County Library Cultural Awareness Team and will take place at the Ocean County Library Jackson Branch, 2 Jackson Drive. This program is free and open to the public and registration is now open. Please register in-person, by phone at 732-928-4400 or online at theoceancountylibrary.org under Calendar of Events.

With 7 out of 10 people experiencing low back pain at some point in their lives and low back pain being one of the most common reasons for patient visits to primary care physicians as well as hospitalization, there is no doubt that low back pain exists in epidemic proportions today. Spinal decompression therapy can be used to treat disc bulges and herniations, disc degeneration, sciatica, spinal stenosis, arthritis, facet syndrome and chronic back pain in the low back. Our Vax-D Spinal decompression system is FDA cleared, and has been statistically proven to relieve the pain associated with disc degeneration, herniated discs, facet syndrome and sciatica. Surgical decompression may be warranted for candidates who fail a conservative trial of Vax-D treatment. If you have back and/or neck pain, you may be a candidate for one of our programs. At our office we will give you an honest and fair assessment of your condition and whether or not we can help you.

Vax-D Spinal Decompression Allows Back Pain to Heal…NATURALLY Many back pain conditions that we see can be helped by our state of the art Vax-D decompression table. Decompression relieves pressure that builds up on the discs and nerves. The task of relieving pain comes about as a result of drawing the leaking gel of a herniated disc back into place. Decompression achieves this by creating negative pressure within the disc, referred to as negative intra-discal pressure. This creates essentially a vacuum to draw the bulging and herniated disc material back into the disc space and relieves pressure. This process of non-surgical decompression allows the body to heal itself naturally. Vax-D decompression tables have been successfully operating for over 15 years throughout the world and more than 3,000 patients a day receive this treatment in the U.S. alone. Vax-D is one of the FDAcleared technologies available at Northeast Spine and

Ticks Carrying Lyme Disease Are On The Rise In Ocean County
OCEAN COUNTY – As the days start getting warmer, Ocean County officials warn residents to be aware of ticks and tick borne illnesses such as Lyme disease. “In 2015, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirmed that 95 percent of Lyme disease cases were reported in 14 states including New Jersey,” said Ocean County Freeholder Director Joseph H. Vicari, who is also liaison to the Rutgers Cooperative Extension Service. “County agencies are working together to educate and raise awareness so we can keep the number of tick borne illness incidents low.” The Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies believes 2017 could be a bad year – a “forbidding forecast”– for Lyme disease, based on a large acorn crop in 2015 leading to an increase in the white-footed mouse population. Feeding on infected mice is a primary way ticks pick up Lyme and other diseases. Lyme disease is spread by the blacklegged tick (deer tick) which can be found on the shrubby understory of the forest, in high grassy areas and in open fields. Ticks tend to favor the thick undergrowth of shrubs and small trees because they prefer cool, moist woodlands. According to the Rutgers Cooperative Extension Fact Sheet FS443 “Preventing Tick Bites: Prevent Lyme Disease,” about 20 to 45 percent of Ocean County, about 20 to 45 percent of blacklegged ticks in New Jersey (depending on the life stage and where they are found) are infected with and are able to transmit Lyme disease. More than 70 percent of Lyme disease cases occur from the bite of ticks in the nymph stage – which is the size of a poppy seed. “When spending time outdoors it’s very important to be vigilant of tick bites,” Vicari said. Transmission of Lyme disease is mainly during the warmer months, but as long as temperatures are above freezing, blacklegged ticks are active the entire year. “One of the most important things we can do is take precautions that help reduce the chance of becoming infected with any tick-borne infection,” said Freeholder Gerry P. Little, who serves as liaison to the Ocean County Health Department. The Ocean County Health Department suggests that people take the following precautions to keep ticks off their skin: Walk on cleared trails and stay in the center of a trail to minimize contact with leaf litter, brush and high grasses where ticks are likely to be found. Minimize the amount of exposed skin. Wear thick white socks, long pants, and a long-sleeved shirt. Tuck the pant legs into the socks, so ticks cannot crawl up the inside of the pants. Wearing light-colored clothing also makes it easier to see ticks. If you see any ticks while still outside, remove them immediately before going indoors. Golfers walking through brushy areas should be aware of ticks. Apply repellents to skin and clothing; read and follow the label instructions. Products that contain DEET can be directly applied to exposed skin and to clothing to help keep ticks away. The product label will give details about how to apply the repellent and how to use it safely on children. Permethrin (hunter-grade) products can be applied to clothing/boots/shoes (NOT TO SKIN) and actually kill ticks on contact with the treated clothing. This is usually effective on clothing through several washings. After outdoor activities, be sure to check your body for ticks and remove any immediately. Use a handheld mirror to thoroughly view all parts of the body. Check children and pets for ticks, also. If you find a tick on yourself, your child or your pet: Use fine-tipped tweezers to grasp the tick as close to the skin’s surface as possible. Pull upward with steady, even pressure. Don’t twist or jerk the tick; this can cause the mouth-parts
to break off and remain in the skin. If this happens, remove the mouth-parts with tweezers. After removing the tick, thoroughly clean the bite area and your hands with rubbing alcohol, an iodine scrub, or soap and water. It is important to remember that a tick must feed for at least 24 hours before they can begin to transmit the Lyme disease bacterium. Avoid folklore remedies such as “painting” the tick with nail polish or petroleum jelly, or using heat to
make the tick detach from the skin. Health officials also recommend if you find a tick, place it in a sealed container with a slightly damp (with water, not alcohol) piece of paper towel. You may take the tick to the Rutgers Cooperative Extension located at 1623 Whitesville Road (at the corner of Whitesville Road and Sunset Avenue) in Toms River to be identified. Tick experts are available from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday to identify ticks. If the tick is identified as a
black-legged tick, the staff will make recommendations according to the CDC. The Rutgers Extension also has a listing of labs that the tick can be sent to for testing. More information on ticks and preventing tick bites can be obtained by calling the Rutgers Cooperative Extension Office at 732-349-1246, visiting the Extension Office website at ocean.njaes.rutgers.edu or by visiting the Ocean County Health Department website at ochd.org.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of April22 - April 28 By Jeraldine Saunders
ARIES (Mar 21- Apr. 19): Grab the bull by the horns. Your strong leadership abilities and quick-thinking can help turn difficult situations into something resoundingly positive this week. Your charisma and confidence will attract others to join your cause. TAURUS (Apr. 20- May 20): If you rest, you could rust. Flex those muscles by keeping busy and active or you may find yourself with little energy to face the week ahead. Accept invitations to get out and about as lounging about the house will do you little good. GEMINI (May 21- June 20): Avoid pouring it on too thick. Being overly complimentary or polite could backfire as recipients may doubt your sincerity. No one will question your intentions if you demonstrate them through actions rather than words. CANCER (June 21- July 22): Choose the path of least resistance. There’s nothing to be gained by doing things the hard way so don’t hesitate to take short-cuts to get the job done. The simplest solutions are the ones that work best in the week to come. LEO (July 23- Aug. 22): Take everything in moderation. It may be a case of doing too much or not enough. The happy medium will make things work as this week unfolds. Don’t press the issue with relationship matters as you may meet resistance. VIRGO (Aug. 23- Sept. 22): Rise to the challenge. It may take a bit of extra effort to overcome an obstacle this week but the satisfaction you get from completing a task will make it all well worth it. Don’t back down if someone questions your integrity or principles.
LIBRA (Sept. 23- Oct. 22.): If you snooze, you lose. A wait and see approach will get you nowhere, the only way that you’ll make any progress this week is if you get out there and make things happen. Follow your instincts to make important decisions. SCORPIO (Oct. 23- Nov. 21): Play your pipes and others will follow. Those around you will be more than willing to let you take the lead no matter where you choose to take them. As you make progress this week, an old problem from the past may briefly resurface. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22- Dec. 21): Read between the lines. It may be difficult to understand a loved one’s intentions unless you delve beneath the front that they’re putting up. Be patient and talk things out without being overly pushy in the week ahead. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22- Jan. 19): Get out and meet people. Strike up conversations with new acquaintances to pave the way for future friendships in the week to come. Listening to how a loved one talks with others may shed some insight into their character. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20- Feb. 18): You don’t have to give until it hurts. Efforts to please a loved one may have you stretching your budget rather thin, so keep things from getting out of hand this week. Remember that the best things in life are free. PISCES (Feb. 19- Mar. 20): If you want to get anything done do it yourself. Your agenda only matters to you so don’t rely on others to share your enthusiasm as the week unfolds. Matters involving family and close friends provide a welcome distraction.

On The Hunt:Try Putting All Your Eggs In One (Souffle) Basket By Wolfgang Puck
LOW-FAT CHOCOLATE SOUFFLÉS WITH ORANGE MARMALADE Serves 8
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, at room temperature 2 tablespoons sugar 4 ounces (125 g) bittersweet chocolate, cut into small pieces, or bittersweet chocolate chips 2 large cage-free eggs, separated 2 tablespoons orange liqueur 5 large cage-free egg whites Juice of 1/2 lemon 1/2 cup (125 mL) fine-shred orange marmalade 1 tablespoon confectioners’ sugar, for dusting Preheat the oven to 425 F (220 C). With the butter, coat eight 1/2-cup (125-mL) ramekins or souffle dishes. Lightly dust them with about 1 tablespoon of the sugar. Place them on a baking sheet and refrigerate until needed. Melt the chocolate in a metal bowl set over a saucepan of gently simmering water. Remove from the heat and quickly stir in the egg yolks and liqueur.
In a clean bowl, beat the seven egg whites with a hand mixer on medium speed until they form soft peaks that droop slightly when you lift out the beaters. Beat in the lemon juice and the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar. Continue to beat the egg whites until they are stiff, holding peaks that stand upright when the beaters are lifted out but are still very shiny. With a rubber spatula, gently fold one-quarter of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture, and then gently fold that mixture back into the remaining beaten egg whites. Use the spatula to distribute the souffle mixture evenly among the ramekins, handling it gently. Run your thumb around the inside edge of each ramekin to help the souffles form “hats” as they rise. Bake for 7 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the middles are still just a little soft. While the souffles are baking, gently warm the marmalade in a small saucepan over low heat. When the souffles are done, transfer each ramekin to a dessert plate. Spoon a little confectioners’ sugar into a fine-meshed sieve, hold it over each souffle, and tap its edge to dust with some sugar. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the warm marmalade into the center of each souffle, gently breaking the top crust as you do so. Serve immediately.
