By Sara Grillo JACKSON – Motorcyclists braved tornado warnings and early morning rain, but ended up with a great turnout for this year’s Motorcycle Ride & BBQ on June 24.

The Jackson Elks hosted this year’s event, but it’s a collaboration between many local Elks – including Brick, Bay ville,

Toms River, Freehold, Lacey and Manahawkin – who are all part of the New Jersey State Elks Veterans Committee.

The event is a yearly one, offering more than just great food, live music and camaraderie, but a fundraiser that goes toward helping local homeless veterans.

Hoarding Rescue Leads To 17 Shelter Puppies

By Sara Grillo JACKSON – A recent animal hoarding situation that led to over 30 cats and dogs being rescued from a home led to even more wagging tails – when it was discovered that three of the rescued dogs were pregnant.

“This is what happens in many of these hoarder cases, people start out with good intentions but things can get overwhelming real quick,” said Daniel E. Regenye, Coordinator for the Ocean Coun-

ty Health Department in a press release. “When that happens, the animal facilities typically become the only option.”

Ocean County Animal Facilities, which has shelters in Jackson and Manahawkin, took in the animals and said that the three dogs have since given birth to three litters, which produced 17 loveable puppies in all shades of black, brown and white. While many of these puppies are still (Rescue - See Page 12)

Jersey Shore Farmers’ Markets Going Beyond The Blueberries

By Sara Grillo OCEAN COUNTY – Quite a crowd showed up to the corner of Route 9 and East Bay Avenue for opening day of the Barnegat Farmers’ Market on June 22, so much so that the space reserved for parking was filled up shortly after the market opened at 11 a.m. Many people opted to park in a nearby shopping plaza instead, some armed with reusable shopping bags to store fruit, vegetables, flowers or whatever else caught their eye.

The market of course had the typical farm stands filled with corn, cantaloupe, yellow squash, blueberries, peaches, garlic and kale, but more and more farmers’ markets around the Jersey Shore are starting to spice up their neighborhood bazaars with a unique variety of vendors.

The Barnegat Farmers’ Market had a little bit of everything for residents to try –from pickles to pierogis to pound cake – wedged nicely in front of the Barnegat Food Pantry & Thrift Shop.

Daisy Smith and Jaconda Bell of Momma’s Home Made were dishing out samples of their scratch made apple sauce, apple garlic hot wing sauce and sweet potato syrup, which they told market-goers to drizzle on anything from salmon to apples to sweet potatoes themselves. The mother -daughter team has been selling their sweet goods at farmers’ markets all across the shore, including the Brick Farmers’ Market at Windward Beach Park every Saturday.

Another popular vendor was Steve’s Pound Cakes, named after Steve Aquilino of Ocean Gate. His all natural, handmade buttery cakes come in varieties of lemon vanilla, brown sugar cinnamon, old-fashioned chocolate, pumpkin bread, coconut and plain, as well as his “secret weapon,” a cream cheese pastry cake with a sugary walnut topping named Girl Food, a creation he said increased his sales by 30 percent. It also comes in a chocolate version, appropriately named Dirty Girl.

Barnegat’s Recreation Director Jeanne Broadbent said the reason there’s so many non-farmer vendors around is because the farmers asked for it. She said there was a big push for farmers’ markets around nine years ago. But as time went on and surrounding communities like Lacey and Stafford joined in, they became less unique, and more hooks were needed to draw people back into their charm.

Sensing the stagnancy, two years ago the farmers came to her and said they wanted more people to come, but that they didn’t necessarily want to compete with any more farmers. They asked her to look for other, more specialty vendors, such as crafters and people selling products like candles, honey and coffee.

“If it’s inclement weather or hot, they can always come to get fresh produce, but the coffee guy might not be there,” she said.

Additions like food trucks help as well.

–Photos by Sara Grillo The Barnegat Farmers’ Market opened for the season on June 22.

Oss Ome Bowls dished out Acai fruit bowls and smoothies, while Dags Dippers served up French toast skewers, chocolate covered strawberries and grilled pineapple. Truck owners are often trying to get the word out about their businesses as well, so it’s a win-win for everyone.

Broadbent said 13 vendors are signed up for the farmers’ market this year, a total that includes only four farms. One was absent for opening day, Eckert’s, which she said mostly grows corn, and will be around starting the first week in July.

The Barnegat Farmers’ Market runs until October 26, rain or shine, Thursdays

from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Municipal Parking Lot. A special Thanksgiving Farmers’ Market will also take place on November 19 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Vendors can still sign up – far ms or specialty – by calling or emailing Jeanne Broadbent at Barnegat Township Recreation at 609-698-0080, ext. 122 or jbroadbent@barnegat.net.

SPOTLIGHT ON GOVERNMENT Correspondence & Commentary From Your Local, County, State & Federal Officials

Assembly Clears Dancer Bill Allowing Local Wine And Beer At Farmers’ Markets Capitol Comments Assemblyman Ronald Dancer 12th Legislative District, Serving Jackson

NEW JERSEY – Legislation allowing New Jersey breweries, wineries and distilleries

to sell at seasonal farmer’s markets was approved today by the General Assembly.

The bill is sponsored by Assemblymen Ron Dancer, Declan O’Scanlon and Robert Auth.

“New Jersey is becoming well known for its small vineyards and craft breweries,” said Dancer (R-Ocean). “At farm markets, the local products are not competing with heavily promoted regional and national competition.

This is an opportunity to increase market share and strengthen the local economy.”

The legislation (A4118/1949/1694 ACS) directs the state Alcoholic Beverage Control to issue daily and annual permits to sell alcohol by the bottle at community farmers’ markets. The bill also permits sampling on site.

“In other states, the sale of local wine and beer by the bottle has attracted more shoppers to farm markets,” said O’Scanlon (R-Monmouth). “Not only will this benefit the vineyards, orchards, wineries and breweries; it will also help the farmers selling organic produce and farm-made baked goods.”

Farmers’ markets return more than three times as much of their revenue into the local economy than do chain competitors, helping create jobs and invigorating local economic activity.

According to the state Department of Agriculture, there are more than 140 community farmers’ markets in New Jersey.

Freeholders: Leave Fourth Of July Fireworks To The Pros

Freeholder Forum From The Desk Of The Ocean County Freeholders OCEAN COUNTY – As Ocean County’s communities prepare for the traditional Fourth of July celebrations, fireworks are once again a hot topic for the upcoming holiday weekend that celebrates the founding of our nation.

However, to safely enjoy the noise and kaleidoscope of colors, the Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders reminds residents to leave the fi reworks to the professionals.

“Do not travel out of state and buy fireworks,” said Ocean County Freeholder Director Joseph H. Vicari.

“Many types of fi reworks look like toys and are marketed towards children, when they are anything but

for kids.”

Possession of fireworks by anyone but a licensed professional is a disorderly person’s offense, but possession with the intent to sell is a fourth-degree offense, with a possible maximum penalty of 18 months imprisonment and fines up to $10,000.

“Every year we hear reports about people being injured by illegal fireworks,” Vicari said. “There is no reason anyone should risk setting off illegal fireworks with so many professional shows scheduled around the county.”

A list of holiday fireworks shows is posted on the Ocean County Homepage at co. ocean.nj.us and the Ocean County Tourism website at

ceancountytourism.com.

According to federal statistics, fireworks injure nearly 10,000 people every year throughout the United States. The vast majority of those injuries occur during the two weeks leading up to and following July 4.

“We have seen reports across the country of people who have seriously injured themselves because the seemingly harmless firecracker they were holding suddenly exploded in their hand or near their face,” Vicari said.

With many towns in Ocean Cou nt y host i ng shows during the holiday weekend, Vicari warned that residents should leave their pets at home.

“Many dogs and other animals are terrified of the loud noises made by fireworks,” Vicari said.

The Humane Society of the United States has released guidelines on how to protect animals during the holiday weekend:

Government 0fficials... Have news that you would like the community to be involved with? Let everyone know by placing a news release in this paper!

Send it to news@jerseyshoreonline.com.

• Resist the urge to take your pet to fireworks displays.

• Do not leave your pet in the car. With only hot air to breathe inside a car, your pet can suffer serious health effects – even death – in a few short minutes. Partially opened windows do not provide sufficient air, but they do provide an opportunity for your pet to be stolen.

• Keep your pets inside at home in a sheltered, quiet area. Some animals can become destructive when frightened, so be sure that you have removed any items that your pet could destroy or that would be harmful to

your pet if chewed. Leave a television or radio playing at a normal volume to keep them company while you are attending Fourth of July picnics, parades, and other celebrations.

• If you know that your pet is seriously distressed by loud noises like thunder, consult with your veterinarian before July 4 for ways to help alleviate the fear and anxiety he or she will experience during fireworks displays.

• Never leave pets outside unattended, even in a fenced yard or on a chain. In their fear, pets who normally

would not leave the yard may escape and become lost, or become entangled in their chain risking injury or death.

• Make sure your pets are wearing identification tags so that if they do become lost, they can be returned promptly. Animals found running at-large should be taken to the local animal shelter, where they will have the best chance of being reunited with their owners.

“By following these simple rules, we make sure the holiday is enjoyable for both our family and our pets,” Vicari said.

Community Survey To Revitalize New Egypt’s Downtown

NEW EGYPT – In October 2016, Plumsted Township passed a resolution to team up with the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs Local Planning Services (LPS) to provide recommendations to the Township regarding the revitalization of New Egypt’s Main Street area given the incoming sewerage system in downtown New Egypt. The Township formed a Working Committee (WC) to work with LPS staff. The WC and LPS have met several times to review background documents and to gather information to assist in the development of the LPS report to the Township which is scheduled to be completed by year’s end. A larger focus group of downtown New Egypt stakeholders was held on June 13 at the Township building in the ongoing effort to gather information and for determining priorities for the revitalization of New Egypt’s Main Street.

Now, as part of the overall effort to broaden public input for this important effort, LPS has

developed a Community Survey which can be accessed on the web at surveymonkey.com/r/ DH2TC8C. We encourage you, your friends and neighbors to complete the survey which requires only a few minutes of your time. Your input will help guide the creation of the plan for New Egypt’s downtown. By completing the survey you will become eligible (and one survey taker will be selected by drawing) to receive a gift basket to include valuable prizes from downtown New Egypt businesses. The Community Survey will be live through July 16. The gift basket will be presented to the winner at the August 2 meeting of the Township Committee.

The link for the survey will also be posted through the Township’s Facebook page and website for easy, one-click access.

If you would like to be involved in the LPS planning process or have questions, please contact Peter Ylvisaker at 609 758 2241, ext. 132.

–Photo courtesy First Financial Credit Union First Financial staff members and students from the Jackson Academy of Business taught students about the financial realities of life at Jackson Memorial High School.

JACKSON – First Financial Federal Credit Union recently worked with Jackson Academy of Business (JAB) students to hold their first student-run LIFE™ (Learning Independent Financial Education) financial reality fair at both Jackson Liberty and Memorial High Schools.

While the credit union has hosted financial reality fairs in the past, this fair was actually staffed by high school students, who sat behind each of the financial tables and worked with other students to help plan their financial future. Approximately 160 students at each school participated in this hands-on version of the “game of life,” during which they were required to make on-the-spot financial decisions.

The LIFE™ Fair consists of a full day of hands-on experiences where students, after identifying their career choice and starting salaries, are provided a budget sheet requiring them to live within their monthly salary while paying for basics such as housing, utilities, transportation, clothing and food. Once the students visit all the booths, they balance their budget and sit down with a financial counselor to review their expenses and get a “financial reality check.” At the student-run fairs, First Financial staff members worked at

the financial review tables with each of the participating students to provide insight.

Laurie Shupin, Jackson Liberty teacher and the high school’s JAB coordinator said, “The students felt it was an excellent learning experience and became more knowledgeable of the subject matter as the day progressed. They are looking forward to more presentations and would love to extend it to the fall and spring semesters.”

While the LIFE™ Fair was certainly full of temptations, the students had to spend their money wisely while being able to save and budget themselves for the future – while also enjoying everything life has to offer.

First Financial President and CEO Issa Stephan said, “Our mission for our first student-run LIFE™ Fair was to help the students understand the value of money and how to manage their money, so as they grow as an adult they’ll become more financially responsible. The student run fair was able to show the high school students even more about the financial realities of the real world. Our credit union puts a high priority on financial education, after all – that’s how First Financial began 81 years ago, with a group of schoolteachers in Asbury Park.”

Jackson Man Arrested For Attempted Car Burglary

By Sara Grillo JACKSON – Jackson Police arrested a 20-year-old man on June 19 after he attempted to break into a vehicle near Brookfield Drive, instead making off with some loose change from several unlocked cars.

Police Officers Michael Morizio and Kale Mabey responded to the area around 10:50 p.m. that night after a resident reported that they saw Blake Vuyovich of Jackson walking around and pulling on the door handles of parked vehicles. He was seen by the resident entering at least one vehicle that was left open.

When the officers spotted Vuyovich and tried to apprehend him, he began running from the area by foot and a chase through the complex followed. Officer Stephen Cilento, one of the police department’s certified Drug Recogni-

tion Experts, was able to approach the scene from another direction and take Vuyovich into custody. Officer Cilento also noticed that he may have been under the influence of an unknown substance, later determined to be Xanax, which he did not have a prescription for.

Vuyovich was charged with burglary, theft, being under the influence of a controlled dangerous substance, obstructing the administration of law and resisting arrest by fight.

He was processed and has since been released on a summons pending a court appearance.

Jackson Police remind residents to lock their vehicles at all times, even when they are parked at their residences, and to remove valuables from their vehicles. Residents should call police headquarters if they see any suspicious activity.

Veterans:

Continued From Page 1 ride, the group was able to raise $7,000.

Last year, that number was blown out of the water as riders and BBQ-goers raised a whopping $18,000. Although there were fewer motorcycles this year due to the rain, Joe LaMonica with the Jackson Elks said “preliminary accounting” shows it’s possible that number could still be beat.

Motorcyclists took a scenic ride to the Brigadier General William C. Doyle Memorial Cemetery, which is about a 20 minute ride from Jackson. A quick ceremony was done in honor of veterans, taps were played and then the group rode back to the lodge for the BBQ. “We don’t care whether you ride, take a car, it doesn’t matter to us,” said LaMonica.

Rescue:

Another part of the day set a more emotional tone. LaMonica said that if you walk into an Elks Lodge, you might find a small table set in the corner neatly, with one chair and one plate, set up for one person. It’s meant to symbolize the soldiers who never made it back.

“There’s a whole ceremony to it. It’s very moving,” he said.

The Missing Man Ceremony was performed by Jackson Am-Vets Commander Roy Mallot, to the tune of a bagpiper, as he explained what each item on the table was and what it meant.

A BBQ followed at the Jackson Elks Lodge that brought out a huge crowd to enjoy ribs and chicken, hot dogs and hamburgers, drinks, vendors and classic rock music by the Mangos. Next year will be the 6th year the event raises money for local homeless veterans.

LYRIC is the only 24/7, 100 percent invisible, extended wear hearing device. It is comfortably placed in the ear canal by a trained LYRIC hearing professional. No surgery or anesthesia is required. LYRIC can be worn 24 hours a day, seven days a week for up to three months at a time.

One hundred percent invisible - No one will know why you are hearing better except you! Unlike many other hearing devices, LYRIC’s small size and placement in the ear canal can make it 100 percent invisible and allows you to enjoy the benefits of better hearing without anyone ever knowing that you are using a hearing device.

Natural sound quality – LYRIC is designed to closely mimic the way you hear naturally. LYRIC is place deep in your ear canal and uses your outer ear to naturally direct sound into the ear canal. Eighty-six percent of users

surveyed report that LYRIC provides more natural sound quality than their traditional hearing aid.

Hearing with no daily hassle 24/7 – With LYRIC, you can forget the daily hassles of traditional hearing aids. Use LYRIC during your daily activities, such as sleeping, showering, exercising, using external headphone and talking on the phone. There are no batteries to change, no maintenance needed and no daily insertion or removal is required.

Doctors say LYRIC “is one of the best advances they have seen in hearing aids. Like extended wear contact lenses…the same concept is helping people with hearing loss.” (WPVI-TV), ABC News May 12, 2009.

7 Reasons You Don’t Sleep Like A Baby

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. Chronic sleep deprivation causes you to crave more junk food, skip your exercise routine and deflate your mood. The only real way to cure insomnia is to find out why it’s occurring in the first place.

Don’t just take sleeping pills to knock yourself out, consider the impediments to sleeping like a baby and fix those. Here are 7 reasons you don’t sleep like a baby: 1. Timing: If you’re accidentally taking stimulating medication at night instead of the morning, you will not sleep well.

A fellow gym-rat told me she takes her Synthroid at 7 p.m. and my neighbor uses his Albuterol (ashtma inhaler) at bedtime. Both of these medications are ideally taken in the morning because they will keep you up at night. That said, if you wake up some nights coughing, or with chest tightness, you could certainly use your inhaler at night, but bronchodilators that are prescribed for general maintenance are best used during daytime hours.

2. Medical Conditions: What if you have Hashimoto’s or Graves’ disease? Both of these conditions cause erratic changes in thyroid hormone which can block sleep.

Untreated acid reflux is another common cause for poor, unrefreshing sleep. Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease cause disruptions in the natural sleep-wake cycle and if you are in the beginning stages, you may not even realize you have these conditions brewing. Type 2 diabetes will disturb your sleep due to the frequent urges to urinate.

3. Allergies. You might think I’m simply referring to hay fever, and while that

certainly will keep you up at night, I’m thinking bigger. When I say allergies, I mean everything that could possibly annoy your immune system from the warm milk you drank before bedtime, to the goose down duvet, to the flannel sheets, and the polyester rug under your bed, to the dust on your fan blades, to dust mites in general… to cat or dog fur and so on. Histamine release will keep you up at night, not to mention the miserable symptoms.

4. Temperature: Personally if it’s too hot, I can’t sleep. I like the bedroom cold, but Sam likes it warm and cozy, so on cold, snowy Colorado nights I leave our window open but I give Sam a microwaveable hot pack.

5. Chronic pain: Only 36 percent of chronic pain sufferers enjoy regular, good sleep according to the National Sleep Foundation.

6. Green Tea: It makes some people alert due to the minor caffeine content.

It doesn’t make everyone sleep like you may have thought.

7. Drinking coffee: Most of you know not to drink coffee at night for obvious reasons (the caffeine), but what you don’t know is that coffee is a drug mugger of magnesium. This mineral is a natural chill pill, and it helps your muscles relax. Magnesium is thought to be a calming mineral so coffee drinkers are up against potential mag deficiency, and therefore more prone to migraines, insomnia and sadness. Drinking decaf doesn’t matter because decaf coffee still contains chlorogenic acid, which is the compound that mugs the magnesium.

Classes For Families Affected By Mental Illness

OCEAN COUNTY – The National Alliance on Mental Illness Ocean County offers a free, six-session educational program for family, significant others and friends of people living with mental illness.

It not only provides critical information and strategies for taking care of the person you love, but you will also find out that you’re not alone. Recovery is a journey, and there is hope.

The group setting of the NAMI Family-to-Fam-

ily Class provides mutual support and shared positive impact – you can experience compassion and reinforcement from people who understand your situation. You can also help others through your own experience. In the program, you will learn about: How to manage crises, solve problems and communicate effectively.

Taking care of yourself and managing your

stress.

Developing the confidence and stamina to provide support with compassion.

Finding and using local supports and services.

Up-to-date information on mental health conditions and how they affect the brain.

Current treatments, including evidence-based therapies, medications and side effects.

Please contact NAMI Ocean County to learn more about the class and sign up. A Fall 2017 class will begin on September 9 and run in a convenient location depending on the enrollment. The class will be held on six Saturdays. Please call 732-2444401 and leave your name and phone number if you are interested or want more information.

Dear Joel

By Joel Markel

Galaxy Gal Pal

Dear Joel, My friend is very superstitious. If the stars aren’t “right” she will cancel our plans. Once we were late for our dinner reservation because we had to turn back home when she realized she forgot her charm bag. She’s a loyal friend and we share a great many belly laughs when we can get together, but I feel like I’m second fiddle to an astrology chart. How can I get her to put this mumbo jumbo aside?

Irene, Waretown Dear Wishful, This is a dilly. Personally, I don’t let the planets plan my projects, but I know there are some people who really put a lot of stock in those things. The most important thing you said is that she is

a loyal, joyful friend whose company you enjoy. That is worth a lot. It’s certainly worth more than being frustrated over her star worship. Some people have kids or spouses or pets who affect their plans; your friend has the zodiac. I think you’ll have to accept her fascination and be patient with her. I doubt you’ll be able to talk her out of it, so wait until the stars align and enjoy the good times with your galaxy gal pal.

PUZZLE

The very necessary but intensive part of your quest to close on your new home will be providing your mortgage representative with all of the financial records and additional information they require. Equally, during a re-finance of your existing home, many of the financial records will be required. In either of these situations, the process is started by the application process and moves through the underwriting process until the loan is clear to close. During this time period which may span from 30 days to several months, depending on the complexity of the loan program, there are several things to remember as to not hinder a smooth closing, which your Attorney can assist with.

First, as an applicant, you never want to open new credit cards, switch credit card balances to new credit cards, or make large purchases on existing credit cards. Even the smallest of purchases on a new card may open up a much larger available line of credit. This is important to remember when you are paying for movers or looking to purchase new appliances and/ or furniture for your new home. All of these actions can disrupt your income to debt ratio which can be a major obstacle in getting to that clear to close position. Make sure prior to utilizing any credit that it is discussed with your Attorney and mortgage representative to avoid delays in obtaining clearance to close your loan.

Second, in a situation where you may be re-financing your existing home or purchasing a home that requires repairs prior to closing, make sure all home improvements/repairs that may be on going are complete prior to the appraisal being performed. One of the steps of any loan is to have a formal appraisal complet-

Robert C. Shea Esq.

Dina M. Vicari Esq.

ed. To avoid a delay, make sure you properly plan the timing of your appraisal.

Timing of the appraisal should be discussed with your Attorney and mortgage representative to ensure that there are no on-going improvements within the property that would require a re-appraisal that will cost an additional fee.

Third, it is important to make sure you are prepared for closing and have enough money saved to bring to the closing table. At the time of closing there are lender costs and third party costs, such as payments to insurance companies, surveyors, title companies, home owner associations, tax office, municipal utilities, and many more, which must be paid at closing. It is important to communicate with your Attorney and mortgage lender to review all of your closing costs that you will be responsible for at the time of closing.

The above items may be overwhelming and we at R.C. Shea and Associates can help you through the process. The law firm of R.C. Shea & Associates, Counsellors at Law, is a full service law firm representing and advising clients in the areas of Estate Planning, Estate Litigation, Personal Injury, General Litigation, Real Estate Law, Medicaid Law, Medical Malpractice, Workers’ Compensation, Land Use and Planning Law, Wills, Trusts, Powers of Attorney and much more.

Summer Safety Tips From Fire Official Frank McDonnell

JACKSON – As summer recreation peaks, Fire Official Frank McDonnell of the Jackson Bureau of Fire Safety wants you to keep safety in mind to keep you safe.

When outside, monitor symptoms of heat exhaustion that often begin suddenly, sometimes after excessive exercise, heavy perspiration and inadequate fluid intake.

Signs and symptoms may include: • Feeling nauseas, faint or dizzy • Heavy sweating, rapid or weak heartbeat • Cool, moist, pale skin • Low-grade fever • Heat cramps, headache and fatigue • Dark-colored urine If you suspect heat exhaustion: • Get the person out of the sun and into a shady or air-conditioned area, elevating their legs and feet slightly.

• Loosen or remove the person’s clothing and provide a cool nonalcoholic or non-caffeine drink like water.

• Fan the person and cool the body by spray or cloth with cool water while monitoring symptoms carefully • If fever is greater than 102 F, fainting, confusion or seizures occur, call 911 or emergency medical help.

When biking or using a scooter or skateboard: • Wear a comfortable, properly fitted helmet with the U/L listing label. Be sure that the helmet sits level on top of the head–not rocking in any direction–and always fasten the safety strap.

• Be sure that safety gear (wrist, elbow and kneepads) fits properly and does not interfere with operation.

• Ride scooters and bikes only on smooth, paved surfaces and only ride during daylight hours.

• Learn the proper hand signals and use them when you turn or stop.

• Come to a complete stop before entering driveways, paths or sidewalks, then look left, right and left again for bikes, cars or pedestrians heading your way.

When barbequing: • Barbecue grills on decks or patios should have sufficient space from siding, overhangs and eaves.

• Always supervise a barbecue grill when in use, keeping children and pets far away.

Use only charcoal starter fluid designed for barbecue grills and do not add fluid after coals have been lit.

• Make sure gas grill hose connection is tight and check hoses carefully for leaks.

Applying soapy water to the hoses will easily and safely reveal any leaks.

Water safety: • Only swim in approved areas, extra caution should be used when around water with children.

• Always supervise children near water at all times and make sure that children learn to swim.

• Check the depth of the water with a lifeguard before jumping in.

• Always wear an approved USCG life vest when boating, tubing, jet or waterskiing.

Pizza Party: Welcome Summer With A New Approach To Barbecue

By Wolfgang Puck WOLFGANG’S BARBECUE CHICKEN PIZZA Makes 4 pizzas, each 8 to 10 inches (20 to 25 cm) 1 pound (500 g) leftover or store-bought boneless, skinless grilled or roasted chicken, cut into bite-sized chunks 4 tablespoons minced jalapeno chile 1 cup (250 mL) bottled barbecue sauce Wolfgang’s Pizza Dough (recipe follows) Extra-virgin olive oil 2 cups (500 mL) shredded mozzarella cheese 2 cups (500 mL) shredded fontina cheese 1 small red onion, thinly sliced 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, thinly sliced 2 ounces (60 g) fresh goat cheese 1 bunch fresh cilantro or parsley, leaves coarsely chopped 1/4 cup (60 mL) freshly grated Parmesan cheese Preheat the oven to 450 F (230 C). Put a baking stone in the oven at least 30 minutes before making the pizza.

In a bowl, toss the chicken with the jalapeno and barbecue sauce. Set aside.

Shape each pizza as directed in the dough recipe. Brush with olive oil and evenly sprinkle with mozzarella and fontina. Top with chicken, red onions and tomatoes; dot with goat cheese.

Using a lightly floured baker’s peel or rimless baking sheet, slide a pizza onto the baking stone and bake until nicely browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Carefully transfer to a cutting board. Repeat with the remaining 3 pizzas.

Brush each pizza’s crust with olive oil. Garnish with cilantro or parsley and Parmesan. Cut into slices with a pizza cutter or large, sharp knife. Serve immediately.

WOLFGANG’S PIZZA DOUGH Makes enough for 4 pizzas

1 packet active dry yeast 1 1/2 cups warm water, 105 to 115 F (40 to 46 C) 1 tablespoon honey Extra-virgin olive oil 3 to 4 cups (750 mL to 1 L) all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt In the bowl of a stand mixer, dissolve the yeast in the water.

Stir in the honey. Leave until cloudy, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in 2 tablespoons oil.

Combine 3 cups (750 mL) flour with the salt and add all at once to the yeast mixture. Mix at low speed using the paddle attachment. When the dough forms, change to the dough hook; knead at low speed for 2 minutes, then at medium speed until the dough comes away cleanly from the side of the bowl and clusters around the hook, 5 to 7 minutes.

Turn out the dough onto a clean work surface. Knead by hand 2 to 3 minutes, adding flour as needed, until smooth and elastic. Transfer to a clean, lightly oiled bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and leave at warm room temperature to rise for 30 minutes to 1 hour. When ready, the dough will stretch without tearing when gently pulled.

Divide the dough into four equal balls. Shape each by gently pulling the sides and tucking them under the bottom, working around the ball four or five times. On a smooth, unfloured surface, roll each ball under your palm until smooth and firm, about 1 minute. Put the balls on a tray or platter, cover with oiled plastic wrap or a damp towel, and leave to rest for at least 30 minutes. At this point, the balls can be covered with plastic wrap and refrigerated for one to two days; they will need to be punched down when you are ready to roll them out.

To shape a pizza, place a dough ball on a lightly floured surface. Turn the dough as you press down on the center with the heel of your hand, gradually spreading it out to an 8-to-10-inch (20-to-25-cm) circle; or use a rolling pin. Pinch a slightly thicker raised rim. Transfer to a lightly oiled pizza pan, or bake directly on the stone.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast

For the week of July 1 - July 7

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Flashes of genius are like a genie in a bottle. You may need to rub a little harder to get the wish granted. Mental restlessness may send you chasing rainbows down dead end alleys this week.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): It is easy to be sidetracked by social gatherings. Slacking off in the week ahead will cause you to lose momentum. Keep your opinions to yourself and rely on trusted companions rather than strangers.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): There are some cross currents going on behind the scenes. Although you are forging forward, others may secretly resent your freedom. Be polite and considerate toward others in the week ahead.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Employ your energy to be excellent. In the week ahead your creativity is energized and you can get more accomplished than usual. However, be cautious about spending and using credit cards.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Face up to your fantasies. In the week to come you might be misled by your imagination or see only what you wish to see. You might feel out of place in group activities or social events.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Keep a smile on your face as the week goes by. People may wonder just what you have been up to. An air of mystery will help you impress others and may pay off financially, as well as romantically.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): People may jockey for position and set their sights on lofty goals but you remain balanced this week.

Ruthless ambition may not appeal to you, but be aware it is a sweet attraction for associates.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The week ahead may offer opportunities for amusing yourself with hobbies or playtime activities.

Even if there is no time for a hand’s on approach you can read or study your favorite subject.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Walk the straight and narrow path. Ignore the wild geese and refuse to chase after them. Don’t waste money on things that do not come with a written guarantee in the week ahead.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Focus on the facts rather than your fantasies. As this week unfolds you might not be at your best in one-on-one negotiations. Be cautious about the fine print if you must sign a contract.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Rest on your laurels. Confidential situations could come to light that can be used to your advantage in the week ahead. Don’t take important steps as surface appearances could be misleading.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Work to make long range plans a reality as this week unfolds. Tap into the energy of a creative muse and you will find yourself making some powerful moves, and enjoying it as well.
