Manchester Day Draws Crowd To Harry Wright Lake Park

By Bob Vosseller MANCHESTER – It was Recreation Director Tracey Lynch’s wish that this year’s Manchester Day once again be a time for bringing families and neighbors together for fun and enjoyment. Despite the threatening weather forecast of Storm Cindy, she seemed to have gotten her wish. Lynch said prior to Manchester Day on June 24 at Har r y Wright Lake Park that she wanted to see residents “create some special memories with t h e i r f a m i l ie s a n d neighbors,” and there were certainly plenty of opportunities to do just that during the township’s special day. “We started Manchester Day back in 1992. It did not happen for several years but we brought it back three years ago,” Lynch said. “It has always been held (Park - See Page 17)

Officials Protest School Aid Cuts

By Chris Lundy and Judy Smestad-Nunn TOMS R I V ER – School officials and lawmakers are protesting a proposed state budget plan that would cut funding to some local districts, and redirect it to other districts. The sponsors of that plan said that the funding is going down because those districts’ enrollments are down. The plan was crafted

by Senate President Stephen Sweeney (D-3) and Assembly Speaker Vincent Prieto (D-32). Toms River would face a cut of approximately $3.3 million. (Its total budget, including all taxes and funding, is $240 million.) Brick could see a loss of $2.1 million. Manchester Township is slated to lose $177,000. “We are not recommending taking state (Protest - See Page 4)

Manchester High School Class Of 2017 Graduates

MANCHETSER – Parents, friends and family cheered as the Manchester Township H ig h School Cla ss of 2017 entered the school’s football stadium in two lines, boys in blue and girls in gold. It was a beautiful summer evening for their graduation ceremony on June 20, as speeches by

students, teachers and school officials reflected on what made the Class of 2017 unique as they matured and bonded throughout their four years together. M T HS P r i ncipa l Dennis Adams opened the ceremony by introducing the school’s NJROTC Honor Guard, who presented the col-

ors as Student Government Officers Emilee Graetz and Charissa Copeland led the flag salute. The MTHS Cantaté Choir sang the National Anthem. “The Class of 2017. We are the last of the 90’s children, the last of a generation, an idea, and a spirit. We carry (Graduates - See Page 5)

Protest:

Continued From Page 1 aid from other districts in any way,” said Toms River Superintendent David Healy at a press conference held at High School South. They just want the same aid they received last year. “We remain optimistic that the governor will respond to our plea.” Resetting state aid at the lower number for upcoming years “will no doubt devastate this community. There is no way the district can absorb this plan and continue to provide a thorough and efficient education.” He warned that staff could be cut, parents could be charged for athletics, and activities could be reduced. The district’s business administrator, William Doering, said that the funding formula is flawed. It’s based on a town’s ability to pay, but Toms River is calculated to be more wealthy than it really is. Similarly, other towns are calculated to be less wealthy than they really are. He also argued that Toms River has one of the lowest cost per pupil, and the funding is going toward towns with some of the highest. Senators James Holzapfel and Greg McGuckin and Assemblyman David Wolfe (all R-10th) also spoke out against the measure at the press conference. The lawmakers also took issue with $25 million in funding to pre-kindergarten schools in those districts. Although edu-

cators support pre-k as a building block for future education, it is not mandated by the state. “How is it that people who, by law, have to be educated,” are losing money to pre-k students who, by law, don’t have to be educated, Holzapfel said. McGuckin asked what districts are getting that pre-kindergarten money. Wolfe said “It’s not a Republican and Democratic standoff. It’s an issue of fairness.” The Toms River district organized a protest in Trenton, but this was ultimately cancelled as they did not receive approval to hold the protest. In an interview by phone, Dan Leonard, Beachwood’s representative on the Toms River Board of Education, said that the district has met with state officials for months. They tried every avenue, so they now have to attempt grand statements like press conferences and protests. “The district did everything procedurally that they could. We can’t do it without the public.” “This district has stretched every penny. We have the lowest per pupil cost,” he said. Instead of being praised for being frugal, they are being penalized. Brick Mayor John Ducey said at the press conference that the town lost $341 million in residential ratables from Superstorm Sandy, and is still trying to recover from it. “It’s not fair that a smaller group of people are paying a higher amount of taxes,” he said. “Every single community should be

treated the same.” Brick Board of Education President John Lamela said in a press release that possible state aid budget cuts would have a “devastating impact” to the district. “The budget numbers were given to our district back in February,” Lamela said in a June 19 press release. “The Board, in collaboration with the Administration, worked hard to keep our tax rate low, prepare a budget that provides an excellent opportunity for our students, and makes some much needed capital improvements.” The proposed $2.2 million loss would result in deep cuts to the budget, which Lamela said was not only unfair but would hurt the students of Brick Township. Brick has been one of the lowest spending districts in the state while still providing a high quality of education for its students, Lamela said, and “instead of celebrating our successes we are being punished for our staff and students hard work.” Lamela urged the residents of Brick, and the surrounding districts that are still recovering from the effects of Superstorm Sandy, to contact their legislators “to do the right thing and fight this unfair and hurtful proposal.” Aid Based On Enrollment Attempts to contact Sweeney and Prieto were not successful as of press time. However, Mark Magyar, policy director for the New Jersey Senate Democrats returned the call and spoke on their behalf. He said

that the funding formula is more in line with what it is supposed to be. Extra aid was stripped away in order to make it fair to everyone. The reason that some towns are losing aid is because their student enrollment is going down, he said. The funding formula dates back to 2008, and was still using those enrollment figures. Things have changed. “It’s a 15-year-old formula based on what districts looked like 15 years ago,” he said. Toms River had 17,169 students in the 2008-2009 school year. They were down to 15,620 in 2016-2017. This is a reduction of 9 percent. Brick had 10,283 students in 2008-2009. They were down to 8,753 in 2016-2017. This is a reduction of 14.9 percent. Manchester had 3,334 students in 20082009. They were down to 2,945 in 20162017. This is a reduction of 11.7 percent. In New Jersey, 73 percent of students attend districts that are underfunded, Magyar said. There are 27 percent of students that are receiving more aid than they should. He countered the argument that these cuts are politically motivated, citing several Republican territories that would be receiving more aid. Indeed, some of them are in Ocean County. Central Regional and Southern Regional are both seeing increases in aid. Stafford Township and Tuckerton’s aid will be flat. Ocean Gate and Long Beach Island will see slight increases.

Graduates:

Continued From Page 1 the flag for a future, not tomorrow’s future, but today’s future,” remarked Senior Class President John Davern in his welcome address. He thanked parents for their support and remembered fellow students who passed away over the past four years. “Denasia, Mollie, Kesse. We have lost three friends in four years, and whether you have known these angels or not, we have all equally learned something from them. We have all learned that life is short, life is cruel, life is unfair. But to make it worthwhile, to make us immortal, we must all contribute our greatest verse. Be successful, if success is what you desire. Work harder. Be the person you dream to be, and the person you claim to be in your Twitter bio.” Mr. Adams introduced the top ten students of the Class of 2017 and the colleges they are attending: (1) Nicholas Pellicano – Boston University, (2) Zachary Kennedy – NJ Institute of Technology, (3) Dejah Adams – Johns Hopkins University, (4) Brooke Leiser – NJ Institute of Technology, (5) Diane Lacuarta – Ocean County College, (6) Christina Batista – Silberman College of Business at Fairleigh Dickinson University, (7) Jack Mork – Stevens Institute of Technology, (8) John Davern – Lockhaven University, (9) Sierra Snead –New Jersey Institute of Technology, (10) Alexis Guiffrida – Ocean County College. He also introduced students entering the military after graduation: Autumn Brooks and Michael Givini – Air Force, Analynn

The Manchester Times, July 1, 2017, Page 5 Freyer – Army National Guard and Kraig Martin-Raba – Army. “So here we are, four years later. How does it feel?” Valedictorian Nicholas Pellicano asked his classmates. He also asked, “What do we do? Once we walk off this field, we all go our separate ways in life…Regardless of what we are doing, we all leave this school in search of something more, a life we can be proud of. I truly believe that wherever our lives take us, however, we will all carry a bit of the same legacy with us, the same DNA that connects us on this field right now, the connection that makes us all Hawks.” Class Officers John Davern, Zachary Kennedy, Kayla Stab, Dylan Cervenak, Kalynn Hanily, and Dejah Adams presented thank you gifts to their class advisors, Miss Rachel Singer and Miss Jennifer Cognetta. “Your class has worked hard, displayed strength and perseverance, and come together to make positive decisions throughout your high school careers,” said Singer. Cognetta remarked, “Our lives are dependent upon the next generation being successful, and we hope that we’ve given you the tools you need to achieve that goal in whatever direction you have chosen to go.” Superintendent of Schools David Trethaway accepted the class gift to the school and addressed the class. Board of Education President Donald Webster, Jr. also congratulated the class. Vice Principal Tracey Raimondo read each graduate’s name as they approached the stage to receive their diplomas. Mr. Adams addressed the graduates, “As

you leave the Hawk’s nest, each of you will set out on your own path. The trail that you blaze must be filled with a strong belief in self. We believe in you, you are prepared and ready to make your imprint on the world. Tonight is your shining moment, be proud of your Manchester roots as we are extremely proud of you. Stay humble. Work hard. You are destined to be great. And don’t forget this quote: ‘Be your best.’” After each graduate received their diploma, Student Government Officers Nicholas Pellicano and Syann Colón led the graduates in the traditional changing of the tassels from left to right. Student Government President Hayley Milner made the closing remarks, describing a class that has come together in unimag-

inable ways. “As we end high school today, the future we have been creating the past four years is no longer a distant reality. No matter what we choose or where we go from here, we all made it here today.” “All of us here today are taking different paths in life, but we all have one thing in common. We are all graduating Hawks… We all have the same home to come back to. Remember Hawks, do not forget to take a break and focus on the beautiful life you have now before it is too late. Congratulations Class of 2017!” The ceremony ended with the graduates tossing their caps into the air as Mr. Adams dismissed the class for the last time, moving on to college, careers and a promising future.

–Photo courtesy Manchester Police A June 19 crash on Route 539 during heavy thunderstorms sent five people to the hospital. By Sara Grillo WHITING – A June 19 crash on Route 539 involving three children sent five people to the hospital and shut down the roadway for several hours during heavy rain and thunderstorms in the area. Manchester Police responded to the head-on accident near Cherry Street around 6:22 p.m. to find a Nissan Sentra on the northbound side of the road and a GMC Acadia on the southbound side of the road, both with significant damage to their front ends. The crash occurred when the Nissan Sentra, driven by 32-year-old Gabriel Bailey, crossed into the center of Route 539 and struck the GMC Acadia, which was being driven by 39-year-old Elizabeth Vanpelt of Whiting. Bailey was riding in the vehicle with his three young daughters aged 3, 6 and 8, who were in the appropriate child restraints at the time of the accident. All four were transported by

ambulance to Jersey Shore University Medical Center. Bailey had to be extracted from the vehicle by members of the fire department and was in serious but stable condition, having suffered broken bones and internal injuries. The three children were admitted for observation. Vanpelt was also taken to Jersey Shore University Medical Center, complaining of injuries to her neck and chest, but was listed in stable condition. Vanpelt and Bailey were wearing their seatbelts at the time of the crash and both vehicles showed multiple airbag deployments. Heavy rain during the time of the accident was determined to be a contributing factor. Members of the Whiting Volunteer Fire Department and EMTs from GEM Ambulance Service and paramedics from MONOC assisted at the scene. Sargent Antonio Ellis of the Manchester Township Police Traffic Safety Section is investigating the crash.

Continued From Page 1 here in this park.” A free shuttle bus service helped everyone reach their destination of fun. Councilman Craig Wallis said the shuttle service, which has always been part of the event, allowed for residents of different sections of the township to attend the event. “We are concluding today with an amazing fireworks display,” he added. Mayor Ken Palmer thanked the sponsors of this year’s Manchester Day during the 2 p.m. opening ceremonies. “I want to thank everyone who sponsored the event and Councilman Wallis and Councilwoman Joan Brush who helped put this on, our police, our DPW and all our volunteers. I’d like to thank our sponsors Whiting Bible Church, Impact Property Management, Anderson & Campbell of Manchester, Major Consulting, and the Oliverie Funeral Home. We have a lot of activities today and I look forward to seeing you during the day.” “We have 11 food vendors and 29 craft vendors,” Lynch added. Among the food vendors was Springfield resident Renee Eaton, who along with her business partner Michelle Conrad of Manchester, brought her pink “Bacon Broads” truck to serve up various bacon delights. “My grandmother lives in Manchester so we knew this would be fun. This is the fi rst time we’ve been a part of Manchester Day. I had a booth at the Columbus Flea Market and then decided to become a mobile vendor at special events like these,” Eaton said. The Bacon Broads serve up various bacon sandwiches, including bacon quesadillas and their signature bacon patty sandwich. “We even serve bacon on a stick,” Conrad said. Games, free swimming at the lake and musical attractions rounded out the day. The Manchester Police Department showed

Council Vice President Craig Wallis said the issue is simple – “we need more storage.”

off members of their K9 unit late in the afternoon. Dominic Brocato and Josephine Ferraro attend Manchester Day nearly every year. The two Leisure Knoll senior development residents brought along their lawn chairs for the day. “This is a nice day to spend at the park after being stuck indoors during the winter. It is nice to come out and get some nice fresh air,” Ferraro said. “We are always here. It makes for a nice day,” Brocato said. P aige Torres, 12, joined her stepsisters Tyana Morales, 7, and Mia Morales, 5, for the day of fun. The trio, who hail from nearby Plumsted, were with their family friend Joanne Bartha of Whiting. They were having their photo taken beside a giant model of a mosquito in front of the Ocean County Mosquito Commission table. “They just enjoyed their own town festival (New Egypt Day) a few weeks ago. They are kind of like my grandkids and Mia is doing some homework by gathering information on mosquitos,” Bartha said. The girls were looking forward to enjoying some of the games and Paige remarked that she wanted some cotton candy. The Lynch family of Columbus (not related to the recreation director) was enjoying other activities. Six-year-old Shae Lynch was enjoying having her face painted by a representative of Seashore Amusements, while her parents John and Sunshine, sister Scarlett, 10, and brothers Brody, 7, and Andrew, 2, were enjoying their time in the park. “This is our second time for Manchester Day. Last year we came here just for a day in the park not knowing it was going on. My grandparents live in Whiting so this year we came out just for Manchester Day,” Sunshine Lynch said. Musicians Julian and Dominique were featured during the evening followed by Tusk, a Fleetwood Mac tribute band. A fireworks display followed the concert.

“We don’t have enough capacity to keep the pumps pumping all day long,” he said, but added that officials are looking into numerous solutions, such as tying their pumps in with Toms River and Lakehurst, reexamining the wells or building another tower. “After we finish refurbishing our current tower, then we’ll look at where are we going to build this tower.” Until then, residents in the Eastern Service Area with odd numbered addresses can only water their lawns on odd calendar dates, and residents with even numbered addresses can only water on even calendar dates. Watering can only be done for 30 minutes a day, between the hours of 10 a.m. and 5 p.m.

H ERE ’ S T O Y OUR H EALTH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

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.

Inside The Law Your Attorney Can Assist Your Mortgage Approval Process By Robert C. Shea and Dine Vicari, Esq. of R.C. Shea and Associates

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-

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.

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.

Pizza Party: Welcome Summer With A New Approach To Barbecue By Wolfgang Puck

Summer is now officially here, and everyone seems to be craving barbecue. Of course, that word can mean different things to different people, from the slowly smoked meat of the American South or Midwest to the Caribbean- and Mexican-influenced spicy barbacoa of the Southwest to the quickly grilled foods many people think of as barbecue in Southern California. But when I first opened my Spago restaurant in 1982, we came up with yet another definition by translating so many of barbecue’s familiar elements into something I called a barbecue chicken pizza. It’s a dish my customers still ask for today; some of them have even learned to make it in their own homes.And besides being as delicious as it sounds, one of the best things about it is that you don’t even need a barbecue or grill to prepare it. My barbecue chicken pizza combines so many of the qualities that people everywhere look for in great barbecued food. There’s the boneless, skinless chicken that so many people in California and elsewhere like to cook quickly over an open fire; but here, I use already cooked chicken, either leftover from another meal or conveniently purchased at the supermarket. For the sauce, I use a good, thick bottled variety like the K.C. Masterpiece brand; but you can use any you prefer. And then, for Southwestern spice, I include some minced jalapeno chile; though you could substitute crushed red pepper flakes, if you like, or leave it out completely if you want something milder. The other parts of this pizza will probably remind you of what people like about any good pizza. I use my own homemade dough, though you could certainly substitute any good-quality pizza dough you find at the market. After rolling but before topping and baking it, I lightly brush the dough with some olive oil, which helps it brown nicely and adds a hint of the olive’s fruity green flavor. I also brush a little more oil on the crust after the pizza comes out of the oven. For more flavor and texture, I add sun-dried tomatoes and sliced red onion, though you could substitute others. Then, of course, there’s the cheese - and not just one. I use a mixture of mozzarella and fontina, and then add some freshly grated Parmesan when the pizza comes out of the oven. Feel free to substitute your own favorite combination, if you like. All these elements add up to a something that somehow feels both traditional and modern. And with no barbecue or grill in sight, it tastes, remarkably, like great barbecue, no matter how you define it! 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.
