By Chris Lundy BERKELEY – The Ocean County Fair remains a place where everyone in Ocean County is welcome to a day or evening out to enjoy some old-fashioned fun. While some of it has changed over the years, it still retains the feel of a neighborhood event of wholesome entertainment, said fair manager Jeff Adams. Volunteers are always hard at work reinvesting in their community. The board putting it together is all volunteers. The ticket gates are run by the Toms River Mariners Marching Band as a fundraiser for them. Explorer youth cadets from the Ocean County Sheriff’s Department and surrounding towns will serve as parking attendants. Inside, it hearkens back to the kind of fairs that you visited as a kid. Boardwalk-style games of chance and skill will fill the midway. The sound of carnival rides – and people on them – echo from the tree line. Lines of community groups and small businesses set up in booths, mixed in with food vendors. It all still has a classic feel to it. “We trace our lineage back to 1947,” Adams said. It was an agriculture day, back then, when farmers would show off their crops that year. It was called the “4-H Achievement and Agricultural Ocean County Field Day.” Held

County To Build $8 Million Garage In Manchester
By Chris Lundy MANCHESTER – A large garage that will consolidate two other county operational buildings will be built on Ridgeway Boulevard, officials said. The Western Facilities Transportation Garage could break ground this year, county administrator Carl Block said. The facility would take the place of two county buildings that are elsewhere. The road department garage is surrounded by municipal buildings near the Jackson Township town hall and cannot expand as it needs to. The transportation department has outgrown the

garage on Route 9 in Toms River as well. The Manchester property was purchased years ago, he said. The planning for the project started around eight years ago. An ordinance that would appropriate $8 million (fueled by $7.6 million in bonds) to fund the design, permitting, and construction of the building was brought up at the most recent Ocean County Freeholders meeting. However, there were not enough members available to vote to authorize the spending of the money, so the final reading of the ordinance was put off until the July 19 meeting.
Closing The Gap On Foreclosures
By Sara Grillo MANCHESTER – There are fewer foreclosed homes on the township’s register than there were last year, officials said at Manchester Township’s latest council meeting. Mayor Kenneth Palmer shared a positive update on the home foreclosure registry, which requires abandoned homeowners in Manchester to register their unoccupied properties and pay a fee every year on an increasing scale. The longer a property stays vacant, the more (Foreclosures - See Page 10)

on September 6, there were contests for entries like highest yield or largest corn. You could also attend seminars to get information from seed companies. There were an estimated 500 attendees. It was originally held at Ocean County Park in Lakewood, but in 1982 it was moved to its current location, at the Robert J. Miller Air Park in Berkeley. This allowed more room for amusements, horse riding, and more. While the venue has changed, and the audience is mostly not farmers, there are certain things that have not. There are still awards and expositions for agriculture. This comes from the still-intact connection to the 4-H after all these decades. Amusements of America will be bringing the rides. They are the same outfit that has come the last few years, Adams said. Like everything else in the fair, their rides will be a balance of favorites and new things. Unfortunately, they retired the Ferris wheel they had. That was a

The pig races are just what you imagine they would be, a track with packs of piglets running through them, all given ridiculous names. Fair Food And of course there must be fair food. Corn dogs and funnel cake as far as the eye can see. But wait, there’s more! Just as the other festivities are a mix of classics and new, the food selections will be a mix of traditional fair food and new selections. You’ll see kettle corn on the traditional side, and falafel on the nontraditional side. With the popularity of food trucks, there will be more of them making appearances. Schedule The Ocean County Fair will be from July 12 through 16 at the Robert J. Miller Air Park on Route 530 in Berkeley Township. The hours are as follows: Thursday, July 13, 5 to 11 p.m. Friday, July 14, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Saturday, July 15, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Sunday, July 16, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Fair admission is $8. Children younger than 10 are free.
p.m. on Sunday. Rock N Roll Chorus, from Long Branch, will also be performing. These shows are being done at various times from Wednesday to Sunday: RC Car demonstrations, and a Chainsaw Carver. The carver has won awards internationally. He will be doing demonstrations, where he takes a block of wood and gives it new life in about 20-30 minutes. Animal Shows What’s a county fair without animal shows? There are several going on throughout the week. A western gaming horse show will be in the horse show ring at 5 p.m. on Friday. At 5 p.m. on Saturday, there will be the Team Sorting Horse Event. Marvelous Mutts, Commerford Zoo, and the Pig Races will be scheduled throughout the fair, from Wednesday to Sunday. Marvelous Mutts has trained dogs perform such feats as races and swimming pool acrobatics. Commerford features an exotic petting zoo, with creatures such as lemurs and yaks. They have an elephant and camel ride.
crowd pleaser. Performances There are several acts that are performing throughout the fair, often more than once. “Some of these people are sought after” and are hard to book, Adams said. Scott DeCarlo, in particular, couldn’t be fit into the schedule last year. “This year, we had to fight to get him because he’s in demand.” The Amish Outlaws, the fair’s headliner, are performing in the main tent on Wednesday, at 7 and 9 p.m. Doc Swan’s Magical Comedy Act is on Thursday, at 7 and 9 p.m. He was a staple of the fair for a few years, and has now returned. Country band After the Reign is performing on Friday, at 7 and 9 p.m. Cowboy Larry’s Wild, Wild West Show will be on Friday and Saturday nights as well. R&B Express, performing Doo-Wop and oldies, will be on the stage at 2 p.m. on Saturday. Country singer Scott DeCarlo will be performing on Saturday at 7 and 9 p.m. Kaotic Control will be performing at 1

Pipeline:
Continued From Page 1 environmentalists are challenging it because they are concerned that spills could damage the Pinelands and the water supply for the area. The Southern Reliability Link, as NJNG is calling it, would begin in Chesterfield, linking to the Transco transmission line. The path of the pipeline would travel through North Hanover, Upper Freehold, and Plumsted. Then, it would go through Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst and Manchester Township. The line would run through existing rights-of-way. The roads listed are: • Bordentown Chesterfield Road and New Jersey Turnpike (start) • Bordentown Chesterfield Road (Route 528) • Arneytown Chesterfield Road (Route 528/664) • Province Line Road • Monmouth Road (Route 537) • Hornerstown Road (Route 26) • Pinehurst Road (Route 539) • Lakewood Road (Route 528) • Fischer Road (Route 24) • West Colliers Mills Road (Route 640) • Pinehurst Road (Route 539) • Easement w it h i n Joi nt Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst • Easement along Route 70 • Route 70 and Colonial Drive (end) The purpose of the public hearing is just to record comments from residents. No action would be taking place. It is being held by
The Manchester Times, July 15, 2017, Page 5 the Pinelands Commission, an independent state agency that oversees such projects. The commission has already stated that the pipeline is consistent with the Pinelands Comprehensive Management Plan, a document that governs economic and recreational activity within the Pinelands. This will be the only opportunity for oral comments to be entered into the record. The written comment period would close at 5 p.m. on Aug. 2. Written comments can be sent to the New Jersey Pinelands Commission at P.O. Box 359, New Lisbon, NJ 08064. The Commission can be contacted via email at njngcomment@njpines.state. nj.us, but emails will not be entered into the official record. Anyone wishing to view files in relation to the gas company’s application can do so by appointment, by calling 609-894-7300. After the public comment period is over, the Commission will prepare a recommendation to state whether they still believe that the pipeline is appropriate. The recommendation will be posted on its website 10 days prior to the Commission meeting where it will be discussed. A Need For The Pipeline The pipeline was approved by the state Board of Public Utilities and Department of Environmental Protection, said Mike Kinney, a spokesman for New Jersey Natural Gas. “Eighty-five percent of the natural gas in Monmouth, Ocean, and Burlington counties come from one feed on the northern end of the system,” he said. This is where the
system hooks up to Texas Eastern. This is a 9,096-mile line from Texas and the gulf coast to the tri-state area. Any disruption of the NJNG system to the north, or Texas Eastern, would seriously threaten gas usage for 1 million customers in 83 municipalities, he said. Additionally, when there are major disasters, like there was in Superstorm Sandy, the customers on the southern end of the map have less of a chance of having gas. “That experience made us look at our system,” he said. This is why “Reliability” is in the pipeline’s name. The goal is to make sure that, even in an emergency, there is a back-up that can still supply the area with natural gas when it’s needed, he said. Environmental Concerns Environmentalists are concerned over building a pipeline through the Pinelands, saying that the Pinelands are supposed to be protected from this kind of encroachment. Two residents questioned the Southern Reliability Link pipeline at the latest Ocean County Freeholders meeting. Raven Potosky, of Manchester, said the pipeline going through town was “very concerning.” She was worried that the pipe, going through the Pinelands, would endanger the aquifer below it, either when it was being installed or through any future spillage. “It’s a direct threat to our water supply,” she said. Peggy Middaugh, another Manchester
resident, echoed those comments. “We don’t see any need for it where we are,” she said. The residents asked the Freeholders to speak out on behalf of the county to oppose the pipeline. About five months ago, Potosky had also asked the Freeholders to oppose the South Jersey Gas Cape Atlantic Reliability Project. Ocean County has three representatives on the Pinelands Commission, but only one that was placed there by county officials. This is Alan Avery, the chairman of the Ocean County Natural Lands Trust Advisory Committee, which suggests land to be purchased for open space. The other two representatives are appointed by the governor: Lacey Committeeman Gary Quinn, a builder, and Bay Head Councilwoman D’Arcy Rohan Green, who is on the board of directors of Save Barnegat Bay. Freeholder Director Joseph Vicari said that the freeholders do not get involved in Pinelands Commission issues. Any attempt by them to try to influence the members could be seen as illegal tampering. Instead, he said that the two residents’ comments will be forwarded to the members so they can read them. However, Vicari said that personally, he is in favor of this pipeline because of a few reasons. One of which is that leaders at the Joint Base Dix-McGuire-Lakehurst have said the pipeline is vital to them. Another is that in times of emergencies, natural gas is usually one of the utilities that is still functioning.

Holzapfel Bill To Ban “Flakka” Possession Clears Senate And Assembly Capitol Comments Senator Jim Holzapfel 10th Legislative District, Serving Toms River
NEW JERSEY – Senator Jim Holzapfel of the 10th Legislative District has signed onto a bill to help curb the use of the street drug known as “flakka” or
“flocka.” This drug that is often associated with violent and self-destructive behavior was approved by the Senate and General Assembly and now awaits a sig-
nature from the Governor. The bill (A-2176) would criminalize the possession, distribution, manufacture and sale of the drug alpha-pyrrolidinopentiophenone (alpha-PVP), an inexpensive synthetic drug commonly referred to as “flakka” or “flocka.” The measure adds the drug to an existing list of similar prohibited controlled substances that includes the family of synthetic
cathinones known as “bath salts.” “Individuals who use flakka present a danger to themselves and anyone else they may encounter because this drug produces a number of psychotic symptoms and violent behavior,” said Holzapfel. “Banning this drug will ensure that residents are protected as well as the emergency responders who put themselves in harm’s way to care
for drug abusers.” Under the bill, possessing, distributing, manufacturing or selling one ounce or more of the drug would be a crime of the second degree. A crime of the second degree is punishable by imprisonment for a term of five to 10 years, a fi ne of up to $150,000 or both. Possessing, distributing, manufacturing or selling less than one ounce would be a crime of the
third degree, punishable by imprisonment for a term of three to five years, a fi ne of up to $15,000 or both. “There are an alarming number of residents in this State who are battling drug addictions,” continued Holzapfel. “With this legislation New Jersey will be proactive about preventing this dangerous drug from taking over and causing more residents to ruin their future.”
Filing Deadline For School Board Candidates Nearing NEW JERSEY – Candidates seek i ng school board seats have until 4 p.m. on Monday, July 31 to fi le their nominating petitions at the Ocean County Clerk’s Office in order to have their name placed on the November 7 General Election Ballot, according to Ocean County Clerk Scott M. Colabella. Nominating petitions for School Board can be obtained in person at ei-
ther the Ocean Count y Clerk’s Main Off ice, at the Ocean County Courthouse, Election Services, Room 107 at 118 Washington Street in Toms River, or at the Ocean County Southern Service Center, 179 South Main Street in Manahawkin. The offices are staffed from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. “ T he O c e a n C ou nt y Clerk’s Office makes every
effort to inform potential candidates of approaching fi ling deadlines,” said Ocean County Freeholder John P. Kelly, who serves as liaison to the County Clerk. “Through the off ice’s website, social media, and other avenues, County Clerk Colabella provides the information needed by both candidates and voters.” Colabella noted it was important that candidates get
their paperwork in on time. “This is what guarantees their place on the ballot,” said Ocean County Freeholder Director Joseph H. Vicari. Colabella noted that all Ocean County school districts now hold their Board of Education elections in November. “A law signed by the Governor in 2014 moved
the petition filing deadline for school board candidates from June to the last Monday in July to provide candidates with more time to submit their petitions,” Colabella said. A total of 68 school board seats will appear on the November ballot in various school districts throughout Ocean Count y. A complete listing of all candi-
dates who fi le petitions for school board will be available shortly after the July 31 deadline at oceancountyclerk.com or facebook. com/oceancountyclerk.

Ongoing Alleged Fraud In Lakewood Reaches $2.4 Million
By Sara Grillo LAKEWOOD – As Ocean County and Federal law enforcement officials continue their investigation into the recent defrauding of Medicaid and other government assistance programs, 12 additional Lakewood residents have been served complaint summonses for allegedly collecting thousands of dollars in fraudulent benefits. As of last week, 14 people had been arrested between June 26 and 27 for collecting roughly $2 million in government assistance benefits they were allegedly not entitled to. A total of 26 people have now been arrested, with the total alleged fraud reaching nearly $2.4 million. The following couples were most recently served complaint summonses for 3rd Degree Theft by Deception by Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office detectives and collaborating agencies: • Eliezer and Elkie Sorotzkin of West Spruce Street allegedly wrongfully collected approximately $74,960 in Medicaid benefits between January 2011 and December 2013. • Samuel and Esther Serhofer of Whispering Pines Lane allegedly wrongfully collected approximately $72,685 in Medicaid benefits between January 2009 and December 2013. • Yisroel and Rachel Merkin of Hermosa Drive allegedly wrongfully collected approximately $70,557.51 in Medicaid,
SNAP and HEAP benefits between January 2011 and December 2014. • Jerome Menchel and Mottel Friedman of Pressburg Lane allegedly wrongfully collected $63,839 in Medicaid and SNAP benefits between January 2011 and July 2014. • Tzvi and Estee Braun of Ridge Avenue allegedly wrongfully collected $62,746.74 in Medicaid, HEAP and CICRF benefits between January 2009 and December 2013. • Moshe and Nechama Hirschmann of Emmanuel Drive allegedly wrongfully collected $53,418.39 in Medicaid and SNAP benefits between January 2011 and December 2015. It is alleged that the charged individuals misrepresented their incomes by claiming amounts that were low enough to benefit from the government programs, when their actual incomes were too high for them to quality. They also failed to disclose on the applications additional income they were receiving from other sources. As a result, the individuals were able to receive government benefits that they and their families were not entitled to. Additional arrests and charges may result as the cases move through the legal process. If anyone has information about these incidents, they should contact Sergeant Mark Malinowski of the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office at 732-929-2027.

JCP&L would still transmit the electricity, and maintain the lines, but TriEagle Energy supplies the electricity. Fusaro said the program is a two-year contract with a fixed price of 7.9 cents per kilowatt hour, but there’s no charge to get in or out of the program at any time. He said the overall savings from JCP&L were originally 20 percent, but went down to about 15.6 percent after JCP&L reduced their price.

money an owner has to pay to keep it that way. Since this new law took effect in March of last year, 57 homes have come off the registry, including 14 in June alone, and a total of $409,000 has been raised. Council President Samuel Fusaro said the fee is both to give banks an incentive to move their homes, and to help the township maintain the properties and avoid any problems, such as people breaking in. “This is year two and we’re seeing a lot of numbers (change), because for a while there were no numbers going down on the foreclosure registry,” said Fusaro. Park Funded In other news, the township also received a matching grant from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection’s Garden State Preservation Trust in the amount of $750,000 to use for parks and open space under the Green Acres Program. Mayor Palmer said the plan is to finish working on 6th Avenue Park first and have a grand opening next year, then move on to improvements in some other township parks. Energy Aggregation Customers are seeing their first savings in
Feral Cat Program There’s also some been some progress in the feral or undomesticated cat problem in town, which Fusaro said is especially prevalent in the senior villages. An ordinance was passed about a year and a half ago to change from a trap and euthanize method to a trap, neuter and release method. Through the help of local animal agencies and volunteers, 86 cats have been trapped, neutered and released back into the community as of June, with money still leftover in the bank.

Law Enforcement Agencies Team Up To Nab Manchester Meth Dealer
By Sara Grillo MANCHESTER – Multiple law enforcement agencies teamed up to nab a 58-year-old Manchester man who was allegedly using his Hyundai Santa Fe to deal and distribute methamphetamine throughout southern Ocean County. Detectives from the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Special Operations Group, Southern Enforcement Unit, Lacey Township Police Narcotics Unit and the Manchester Township Police Narcotics Unit were acting agencies in the investigation. On June 16, detectives spotted David Dixon’s
blue SUV in a strip mall located at 1015 Lacey Road in Forked River. With the help of Lacey Township Police Patrol Division, a motor vehicle stop was conducted and it was learned that Dixon was inside the vehicle. Detectives initiated a search of the Hyundai and found 75 grams of methamphetamine, which was seized, along with the vehicle itself. Dixon was subsequently charged with Possession of a Controlled Dangerous Substance (Methamphetamine) and Possession of a Controlled Dangerous Substance over a half ounce with Intent to Distribute. He was lodged in the Ocean County Jail and awaits a court date.

Bartley Healthcare Earns The Embracing Quality Award
JACKSON – Bartley Healthcare Nursing and Rehabilitation’s latest recognition is the accreditation in Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement (QAPI). With that accreditation, Bartley has received the Embracing Quality Award for 2016. Bartley has partnered with quality care leader Providigm, a developer and champion of quality assessment methods and measures for post-acute and long-term care facilities that tracks outstanding performances in those areas. The Providigm Embracing Quality Awards for 2016 reflect excellence based on three performance measures during the calendar year of 2016. Bartley Healthcare has received an award in at least one of three categories, which include: Deficiency-Free Survey, Readmission Prevention and Customer Satisfaction. The Providigm philosophy of Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement (QAPI) is integral to the Embracing Quality Awards. Only organizations that have achieved Basic or Advanced QAPI Accreditation are eligible for an award to ensure that systems are in place to continue providing the same caliber
of care. QAPI is essential for sustained high performance. Embracing Quality Awardees are determined based on absolute criteria for extremely high performance. Providigm believes that an extremely high bar can be defined for all to strive to achieve. Given how few organizations were able to meet the Embracing Quality award criteria, there is no question that as award winners, Bartley is a leading group. For over 31 years, Bartley Healthcare has provided quality individual focused skilled nursing, rehabilitation and assisted living services for residents on its 25-acre campus in Jackson.

21-Gun Salute Shell Donated
By Chris Lundy OCEAN COUNTY – A shell from a 21-gun salute fired at a funeral for a local soldier whose remains were recently identified was donated to the county historical society. First Class Machinist’s Mate Earl R. Melton, Lakewood, was serving on the USS Oklahoma, when it was sank during the attack on Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941. He was 24. The bodies were placed in a mass grave after they were recovered, because there was no way, in 1941, to identify them all, Freeholder Director Joseph Vicari explained at the most recent Ocean County Freeholder’s meeting.
Since then, technology has advanced to the point where forensic scientists could identify people’s remains. So, the grave was opened. He was buried at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia on June 28. Ed McBride, a Marine who works in the consumer affairs department and works with POW/MIA causes, and John Dorrity, director of the county’s Veterans Service Bureau, attended the ceremony on behalf of the county. A relative of Melton’s collected one of the shells from his 21-gun salute and gave it to Dorrity. Dorrity said he decided that it belonged to the county, and donated it to the historical society.

Dr. Isidore Kirsh Ph.D., F.A.A.A.
Are You Tired Of Hearing?
People with perfectly normal hearing are able to hear and understand much of the sound around them automatically. They do not have to get help from lip reading. They do not have to concentrate. They do not have to stop what they are doing. They just hear. Someone with a hearing loss does not have the luxury of automatic hearing. If you have a hearing loss, you have to pay close attention, use lip reading when you can and concentrate. Hearing and understanding do not happen automatically. Hearing takes attention and energy and you just can’t do it 12 or 14 hours a day. Hearing aids allow you to hear better and that is great. But it may be just as important that hearing aids allow you to hear with less effort and energy. They allow you to be more relaxed as you communicate with the people around you. Of course, you cannot listen carefully full-time and there will be times when you do not hear as well as other times. You may not hear as well if you are
tired, under stress or you are thinking about something else. That is why we suggest that anyone speaking to you gets your attention before speaking. On the other hand, if you are ready and if you are paying attention, you can hear better than you really want to. You just can not do it full time. Actually, many people with hearing loss are able to hear and communicate surprisingly well in spite of hearing only 50 or 60 percent of the speech sounds. But, we live in a very demanding hearing world and sometimes anything less than 80 to 90 percent is just not good enough. If someone tells you, “Okay, I will see you on the 15th,” and you hear “Okay, I will see you on the 16th,” it was not enough to hear most of the message. So the next time someone says “you can hear me when you really want to,” you can correct them: “No, you mean I can hear you when I really work at it.” Remember, if have hearing loss, hearing takes attention and energy. You can do it 12 to 14 hours a day.
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!

H ERE ’ S T O Y OUR H EALTH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
Some Pharmacists Are Losers And Some Are Heroes By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. About 100 years ago, during Prohibition, apothecaries were the place to hang out since the neighborhood bars had closed. The corner drugstore was where people traded “hard” liquor in for “soft” drinks and it was also a time when pharmacists were actual chemists blending herbals and medicinals all day long. Did you know Coca Cola syrup was invented by pharmacist John Pemberton back in 1886 in Atlanta, Georgia? Fast forward to today where Coca Cola is a global smash, and medications are commercially prepared by multi-billion dollar corporations, not people. Some have said the pharmacist’s role is more along the lines of “lick, stick and pour.” Ah, but that’s just a saying. Oregon and New Mexico just signed into law a bill that allows pharmacists to prescribe and dispense birth control pills to women straight out of the pharmacy, without an on-site physical exam or lab work. This may sound weird to you, but the precedent was set years ago when pharmacists were granted prescribing rights to administer certain flu vaccines. The ability for pharmacists to prescribe contraception saves valuable time and money for all parties involved, but it does beg the question: Which prescription drugs are going to one day be put on the “allowed to be prescribed” formulary? And in regard to birth control pills, are the pharmacists (or any prescriber) advising women to supplement with what their medication will deplete? ‘The Pill’ reduces your magnesium, selenium and crucial B vitamins which can contribute to you feeling depressed, overweight, hypothyroid
and tired. I suggest you put back what the “Drug Mugger” stole. Pharmacists have once more been distinguished as one of the most honest, ethical professionals in the United States. But some pharmacists give the practice a bad name. For example, this past June Massachusetts pharmacist Barry Cadden was sentenced to nine years in prison because he compounded injectable steroids that were contaminated, which led to the deaths of 76 people in 2012. Contrast that with the quick-thinking pharmacist who just saved 57-year-old Mark Davey’s life. Mark was eating lunch, and out of the blue, his tongue started to swell up. He drove himself to CVS Pharmacy to buy Benadryl, but when he arrived he began gasping. Pharmacist Bhavini Patel was working that day, and she called paramedics, and then injected Mark with the drug EpiPen (epinephrine) from her pharmacy in an attempt to save his life. It worked! Mark was experiencing an “anaphylactic” allergy to his food and she knew it. I applaud Pharmacist Patel, she is a true hero. Even though it may have possibly gone against store policy to administer the shot, she did what she felt was right and compassionate to save this man’s life. How awesome?! Mark is alive because pharmacists are not just there to lick, stick and pour. We are healers by nature and interested in getting you well. I wish I could go back in time and own one of those apothecaries where I could create amazing custom-blended natural remedies, as well as fizzy soft drinks around my “neighborhood bar.”

BUSINESS PROFILE DISCOUNT TIRE CENTER By Robert Verderese Tires are one of the most important components of your car. They are responsible for how your vehicle handles various road conditions that come your way. You might not truly appreciate your tires until you fi nd yourself getting a fl at or a blow out, but that’s where Discount Tire Center of Tom River comes in. Operated by Rich, alongside master technicians with over 40 years combined experience, Discount Tire has been offering the best quality tires at the lowest prices since 1985 and will always treat you with courtesy and professionalism. Are you one of those people who never pay attention to your tires? If so, you are not alone. But did you know ignoring your tires can potentially bring about a major safety issue. Why? Because tires are your vehicle’s only contact with the road. It doesn’t matter how good of an engine your vehicle has, how well it is built, what speed and acceleration it has, in the end it all comes down to tires and how they can alter your automobile’s performance on the road. Not only should you pay attention to your tires, but you should learn the difference between good tires and bad tires— between cheap tires and quality tires! Yo u r automobile tires can
literally make or break your driving experience and your family’s safety, so it is critical that you choose your tires wisely! At Discount Tire, Rich and his team will see to it that your tires are the right fi t for you, your vehicle and your budget: “We house an inventory of over 2000 tires at all times, which means you can count on us to almost always have exactly the right tires for you at any given time,” Rich explains. And unlike other tire chains, Discount Tire doesn’t stock off-brands or seconds: “Our tire rack is only fi lled with world class tire brands, such as Michelin, Good Year, BF Goodrich and Pirelli,” says Rich. Additionally, by virtue of the high volume of tires that they sell, Discount Tire is able to maintain lower prices than their competitors. So therein lies the simple formula to Discount Tires phenomenal success—to provide the highest quality tires to their customers at the lowest price. Given their success, it is no wonder that many other tire and auto shop establishments have desperately tried to imitate Discount Tire, even going so far as to use their name. But Rich and his team don’t let that bother them. They believe in that old adage that ‘imitation is the highest form of flattery’ and therefore feel complimented by their competitors—while all along knowing that though others have used their name and practices—there is only one Discount Tire Center! For many of us, our knowledge of tires begins and ends with the fact that they are black, round and have a hole in the middle. But the reality is
that tire technology has really gained traction in recent years. The professionals at Discount tires are acutely aware of this and that is why they research tire ratings exhaustively to ensure that they are equipped with the knowledge to best serve their customers. Rich sheds light on the subject in the following way: “The tires they are making today go way beyond what season it is or what type of vehicle you are driving. You can think of today’s tires as multitaskers—responsible for transmitting the forces of grip, driving, steering and braking to the surface of the road.” Knowing that your automobile and your time are very important, Discount Tire can install a set of 4 tires on your vehicle in approximately 30 minutes. “We are proud to be Home of the 30-Minute Tire Exchange. We
want our customer ’s tire buying and maintenance experience to be as seamless and enjoyable as possible,” says Rich. By providing speedy, exc e l l e nt s e r v i c e coupled with the lowest prices in tow n, D i sc o unt Tire always strives to meet and surpass their customer’s expectations. When it comes to tires, routine maintenance is also extremely important. This includes proper inflation so your tires don’t wear prematurely; regular rotation to ensure maximum longevity for your tires; proper alignment for enhanced performance, and other tried and tested techniques. As an added bonus, proper maintenance of your tires will also improve your gas mileage and most importantly!—provide optimal safety for you and your family. Plus, when you purchase tires from Discount Tires, you will receive free mounting, balancing, valve stems and tire disposal. Moreover, they offer coupons and discounts on a regular basis as a way to say thank you to their customers. Rich says of his customers in this way: “We really value our customers, many of whom we know on a first name basis. We treat all of our customers like our own family members. We enjoy building longstanding relationships with them.” A commitment to serve the
needs of their customers and the community at large is perhaps most aptly illustrated by Discount Tire Center’s insistence on opening their doors the morning after Super Storm Sandy hit our area: “We were ready for the storm and had all of our equipment operating on generators. We felt compelled to help and serve our community in its time of greatest need. By getting their vehicles back on the road, we took great pride in providing support and comfort for our neighbors in such a trying time,” Rich recalls. Discount Tire Center is also a full-service auto repair shop, offering a variety of automotive repair services, including prevent at ive maintenanc e, brakes, shocks, exhaust systems, wheel alignments and more. So come into Discount Tire Center for a quote on an automotive repair service, or schedule an appointment with them today! You can reach them at 732-270-6700 or via their website at DiscountTireNJ.com. They are conveniently located at 1406 Route 37 East in Toms River next to the Taco Bell.

R.C. Shea & Assoc.
Inside The Law Workers’ Compensation Basics
Robert C. Shea Esq.
By Robert C. Shea, Esq. & Christopher R. Shea of R.C. Shea and Associates
In New Jersey, if you sustain an injury arising out of or in the course of your employment, you are entitled to certain benefits under the law. This is more specifically set forth in the New Jersey Workers’ Compensation Act. Primarily, should your injury require medical attention, the Workers’ Compensation carrier for your employer is to provide this to you. The insurance carrier pays for reasonable and necessary medical care until you reach a medical plateau. In turn, however, the insurance carrier does have the right to direct your medical care. In other words, the insurance carrier has the opportunity to choose the physicians with whom you treat, as well as the facilities where any treatment or therapy is administered. In the event that your injury is such that you are medically unable to work for more than seven days, the New Jersey Workers’ Compensation Act provides that the insurance company is to pay temporary disability benefits. This entitles you to 70 percent of your wages, up to the statutory maximum for the year in which you sustained the injury. These payments continue until the authorized physician permits you to return to work or until you reach a medical plateau, whichever is sooner. Should permanent effects of your injury remain after achieving a medical plateau, you may be entitled to benefits to compensate for those permanent effects. This is based on a statutory value determined according to the part of your body which was injured and the permanent residuals of your treatment and injury. This process progresses after your physician has returned you to gainful employment. In the event that you are deemed medically unable to return to work, you may be entitled to total disability benefits.
The questions often arises, “What happens if I am injured during Christopher R. Shea Esq. the course of my duties as a volunteer for a municipality?” It has been determined that volunteer firefighters, first aid or rescue squad workers, ambulance drivers, forest fire wardens or firefighters, board of education members and auxiliary or special reserve police officers are provided for within the Workers’ Compensation Act in New Jersey. Although, as a volunteer as listed above one would not have been compensated for the acts performed within the scope of that position, if injured while performing those duties, and medically unable to work, you would be entitled to compensation at the maximum rate for the year of that injury. Furthermore, the injured volunteer is entitled to reasonable and necessary medical treatment as if an employee. In the event that the volunteer suffers permanent residuals from the injury in question, the volunteer would also have the right to seek payment for those residuals, the same as if a paid employee. The law firm of R.C. Shea & Associates 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, Wills, Trusts and Powers of Attorney.

A Pesky Neighbor In The Garden
Dear Joel, I love gardening and take great pride in my yard. It’s a peaceful time and I look forward to working in the yard, but I have a neighbor who thinks she is a judge in the county fair. She has plenty of gardening tips and is always telling me what I should do and what I’m doing wrong. One time she even came over and pulled my weeds when I was out. Please help me from digging a hole and pushing her in it? Weeded Out in Toms River

It’s their time away from the stresses and interruptions of the day. I would tell your neighbor that you appreciate her advice, but that you really want to figure things out on your own. Tell her you don’t care about having the biggest and the best garden; you just want to learn from every experience.
Dear Weeded, What a shame. I don’t have a green thumb, but I have several friends who are serious gardeners and they tell me how much they enjoy their time alone in the

MERKEL CELL CARCINOMA
M
erkel cell carcinoma is also called neuroendocrine carcinoma of the skin. It tends to grow fast and to spread quickly to other parts of your body. SYMPTOMS
The first sign of Merkel cell carcinoma is a fastgrowing, painless red, blue or purple nodule on your skin, most commonly seen on the face, scalp or neck.
WHEN TO SEE A HEALTH CARE PROVIDER
If you notice a mole, freckle or bump that is changing in size, shape or color, growing rapidly, or bleeding easily after minor trauma, such as washing your skin or shaving, make an appointment with your healthcare provider.
RISK FACTORS Factors that may increase risk of Merkel cell carcinoma include:
Beautiful Skin at Any Age Medical Dermatology (Pediatric & Adult): • Abnormal Moles Comprehensive Skin Cancer • Pre-cancer Growths • Skin Cancer Screenings Available - Call Today! • Pimples • Scars • Viral & Fungal Infections • Itchy Flaky Scalp/Face • Eczema • Cracked Lips & Dry Skin • Itching, Sunburns & Blisters • Diaper Rash & Allergic Reactions • Rosacea • Skin Tags • Benign Growths...and and many others! Renata Flaks, DNP 707 Main Street • Toms River 732-244-2666 www.qualityderm.com Open Monday - Friday
QUALITY DERMATOLOGY Accepting Most Insurance Plans Accepting New Patients Same Day Emergency Appointments
• Excessive exposure to sun or tanning beds. • A weakened immune system including those with HIV infection, those taking drugs that suppress the immune response or those with chronic leukemia. • History of other skin cancers such as basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma. • Increasing age. This cancer is most common in people older than age 50, though it can occur at any age. • Light skin color. Merkel cell carcinoma usually arises in people who have light-colored skin.
COMPLICATIONS
Even with treatment, Merkel cell carcinoma commonly spreads (metastasizes) beyond the skin. Merkel cell carcinoma tends to travel first to nearby lymph nodes. Later it may spread to your brain, bones, liver or lungs, where it can interfere with the functioning of these organs. Cancer that has metastasized is more dicult to treat and can be fatal.

PROFESSIONAL PROFILE ADVANCED FOOT & ANKLE SPECIALISTS, PC
To drag one’s feet is to proceed slowly, reluctantly or without enthusiasm. To sweep someone off their feet is to overwhelm with charm. And to stand on one’s own feet is to be independent and self-supporting. These are just a few examples of the many sayings that refer to the feet. But some may ask, why feet? Simply put, because the feet are the foundation of the body and just like any other structure, the body without a strong foundation will begin to suffer possible serious problems, making proper foot care of the utmost importance. Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists, conveniently located in the Whiting Stop & Shop Shopping Center at 40 0 Lacey Road, Suite 9B, offers patients the exceptional care they deserve in the latest state-of-the-art facility by highly experienced and caring professionals. Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists was originally founded by Dr. Scott Amoss in 2000 and was formerly located in Toms River. In 2005, seeing there was a great need for his ser vices in the area, Dr. Amoss relocated his practice to
Whiting. In February of 2014, with the need for more space to accommodate his expanding practice and to house newer, more technically advanced equipment, Advanced Foot & Ankle relocated to its present beautifully decorated, comfortable, clean and spacious facility. The personable Dr. Amoss is a highly-educated professional who is a lifelong resident of the Jersey Shore. The happily married father of three studied and received an undergraduate degree in chemistry at Cook College at Rutgers University. He became a member of a National Chemistry Honor Society and worked for several years as a chemist before he decided to pursue a career in medicine. Dr. Amoss attended the New York College of Podiatric Medicine where he finished fourth in his class of over 100 graduates and subsequently graduated cum laude in 2000. He is also the recipient of many honors and accolades, including Deans List recognition during all four years while attending the New York College of Podiatric Medicine. After completing a twoyear surgical residency at
William B. Kessler Memorial Hospital in Hammonton, New Jersey, Dr. Amoss received extensive training in fields such as orthopedics, vascular, plastic and reconstructive surgery, emergency medicine, dermatology and radiology. Dr. Amoss was also on staff at the South Jersey Wound Care Center, the largest facility in South Jersey. His expertise and training has led him to be a Board Qualified Foot Surgeon by the American Board of Podiatric Surgery. He is also a Diplomat American Board of Podiatric Medicine as well as a Certified Wound Specialist. Dr. Amoss is currently on staff at Community Medical Center in Toms River and the Manchester Surgery Center, where he performs inpatient and outpatient surgery. He is also a member of the New Jersey Podiatric Medical Society and American Podiatric Medical Association. The impressive qualifications at Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists are not limited to Dr. Amoss. Those on his staff are all Certified Podiatric Medical Assistants through the American Society of Podiatric Medical Assistants. Dr. Amoss and
his team of professionals treat all of the common foot ailments including hammertoes, bunions, athletes’ foot, ingrown nails and heel pain. “We treat all ages and everything from the knee down,” said Dr. Amoss, including P.A.D., or peripheral arterial disease, a common circulatory problem which narrows the arteries and reduces blood flow, causing symptoms such as leg pain when walking. This condition can also reduce blood flow to your heart and brain, as well as your legs. Treatment for Achilles tendon, ankle instability, ankle sprains and sports injuries of the ankle and foot are also addressed. The new facility also offers o n - site surger y, X-rays and biopsies, often finding sk in c anc e r that others may have missed. “With diabetes being on the rise, proper foot care for those with diabetes is a major concern,” continued Dr. Amoss. “With a diabetic foot, a small wound can be slow to heal, lead to
infection and sometimes severe consequences including amputation. However, at Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists, surgery is always a last resort.” Although prestigious qualifications are always important when choosing a physician, impressive qualifications in the compassion department are of equal importance. From the pleasant voice that answers your call to the smile that greets you as you walk through the door of Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists, there is a genuine feeling of caring, concern and compassion. You are never just a number at Advanced Foot & Ankle. Dr. Amoss and his dedicated team all agree that the most important and best part of their job is making a positive impact
on people’s lives. In short, their mission is “Making people feel better,” said Podiatric Assistant Kristen Valentino. All of your foot care needs are taken care of at Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists, which also offers a large and stylish selection and expert fitting of orthopedic and diabetic shoes and sandals. They even carry specially formulated nail polish for those suffering from fungal infections. Extras and details such as these are what makes Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists stand out from the rest. Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists PC is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information or to schedule an appointment, please call 732-350-0100 or visit them online at AdvFootandAnkle.com.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast
For the week of July 15 - July 21 By Jeraldine Saunders
ARIES (Mar 21-Apr. 19): Don’t throw caution to the wind. You may be less careful than usual as you could be in a hurry or simply too focused on what you’re doing to pay attention to what’s going on around you. Stay on your guard no matter the circumstances. TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20): Go along to get along. Someone’s assertiveness may rub you the wrong way but you’ll get farther by looking for compromise rather than trying to butt heads. The lights will be all green for romantic pursuits this evening. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t let the cat out of the bag. Show your maturity by not revealing privileged information that you have been trusted with. Sharing someone else’s secrets will give you little to gain and a whole lot to lose. CANCER (June 21-July 22): There’s always room for improvement. You’ve done well so far but there’s no reason why you can’t do better in the future. Seek out innovative new methods and routines which could improve your productivity, health or attitude. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): When it’s your turn to bat, swing for the fences. You’ll only gain from an opportunity in the spotlight and showing definitive results, so don’t hold back. Your prospects for romance could be higher than usual throughout the day. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Live and let live. Making mistakes are part of life. Allow others to learn from their experiences and don’t be so quick to jump into the affairs of friends or loved ones. If solving a problem seems impossible, try again later.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22.): There doesn’t have to be winners and losers. Resolving an argument by finding common ground upon which to build could be more beneficial than simply trying to get in the last word. Avoid trying to push someone’s buttons. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Test the waters before you dive in. Get a feel for the general mood before making jokes or offhand comments or others may take it personally. Focus on projects that tap into your creative side to get the most out of it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22- Dec. 21): Don’t make assumptions. While you may feel someone knows exactly what you are thinking, they may actually be on a completely different wavelength. Go out of your way to do something to please your significant other. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22- Jan. 19): Don’t fret over what you don’t have. The green-eyed monster could rear its ugly head when a friend shows off a shiny new toy. This should really have little impact on your life. Constructive projects keep your mind busy. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20- Feb. 18): Refocus your priorities. Too much information and mental clutter may divert you from the correct path but employing some self-discipline and some planning could quickly have you back on the right track. PISCES (Feb. 19- Mar. 20): There’s always a chance. The odds of winning or losing could be equal, just make sure that you can afford the cost if you lose. Put creativity and originality on display and before too long others will admire and respect you for it.

Go Nuts! Cashew ‘Cream’ Sauce Is The Highlight Of This Vegan Dish By Wolfgang Puck Most people today understand what it means to be vegetarian, avoiding meats, poultry or seafood in their diets. In fact, the ever-rising popularity of farmers’ markets makes it possible for more and more food lovers to consider themselves at least part-time vegetarians, enjoying the pleasures and health benefits of meals without animal proteins at least several times a week. Widespread familiarity with vegetarianism has, in turn, led to more particular choices when it comes to the foods we eat. There are lacto-vegetarians, who include dairy products in plant-based diets; ovo-vegetarians, who eat eggs; and, of course, lacto-ovo-vegetarians. Pescatarians - fish-eaters won’t eat any other animals - deserve a mention, too. Then there’s the most observant vegetarian category of all: vegans, who avoid any animal products whatsoever. That means no butter, no cheese, no milk, no eggs - nothing at all derived from animals. And you find that more and more people interested in healthy eating today follow strictly vegan diets, with celebrities including Gwyneth Paltrow, New England Patriots superstar quarterback Tom Brady, and Brady’s supermodel wife Gisele Bundchen all touting the health benefits of strictly plant-based nutrition. With veganism gaining an ever-higher profile, it’s only natural that my chefs and I get more and more frequent requests for vegan dishes. Now, you might think that we’d find it challenging to prepare delicious, even luxurious-tasting food following such restrictions. But, in fact, more and more products are widely available that make vegan cooking not only possible but actually a pleasure. You can find vegan “cheeses” and even vegan cultured “butter” spreads made from nuts and oils, for example. And it’s also possible in your own kitchen to prepare “cream” sauces based on nuts, which turn wonderfully smooth and rich when pureed in a blender, leading many people who sample the results to doubt that a dish made in this way doesn’t include dairy. Don’t just take my word for it, either. Instead, try the following authentic-tasting Italian recipe, which was developed by my team at Wolfgang Puck Catering. It features fresh gnocchi, the traditional bite-sized potato-and-flour pasta dumplings, which you can find vacuum-packaged and ready to cook in the refrigerated section of many well-stocked supermarkets and in Italian delis. If you want to make sure you’re being strictly vegan, check the ingredients listed on the package and select a brand that doesn’t include eggs. You’ll also want to look for a store-bought, dairy-free Parmesan cheese. Roasted cashew nuts, pureed in a food processor, are the source of the rich-tasting, garlicky “cream” sauce. You and your family and friends may find it hard to believe this easy, delicious recipe is actually vegan. And you may realize you’re
one step closer to following a plant-based diet yourselves! VEGAN GNOCCHI WITH MUSHROOMS, GARLIC AND CASHEW CREAM SAUCE Serves 4 For the gnocchi: 1 12- to-16-ounce (380-500g) package fresh gnocchi 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 3 quarts (3 L) cultivated mushrooms, cut into 1/4-inch (6-mm) slices 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 sprig fresh thyme For the cashew cream sauce: 1/2 cup (125 mL) raw cashews, roasted in a 350 F (175 C) oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes 1 1/4 cups (310 mL) water 1/2 cup (125 mL) good-quality canned vegetable stock or broth To assemble: Nonstick cooking spray 3 garlic cloves, minced 1/4 cup (60 mL) store-bought grated vegan Parmesan cheese, plus extra for serving 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1/8 teaspoon salt Chopped fresh chives, for serving Bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the gnocchi following manufacturer’s instructions. Meanwhile, in a large saute pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, garlic and thyme, and saute, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms begin to turn golden brown, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove the thyme sprig and set the mushrooms aside. Put the cashews and water in a food processor fitted with the stainless-steel blade. Process until the nuts form a smooth paste, stopping as necessary to scrape down the side of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add half of the sauteed mushrooms and process again until smooth, scraping down the bowl as needed. Transfer the puree to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally with a whisk. Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and cook until thick and creamy, about 1 minute, adding a little of the vegetable stock if necessary to thin it to coating consistency. To prepare the gnocchi for serving, heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the cashew cream sauce, gnocchi, remaining sauteed mushrooms, grated Parmesan, pepper and salt; cook until thoroughly heated through. Spoon the gnocchi, mushrooms and sauce into individual heated serving bowls or plates. Garnish with chives and more Parmesan and serve immediately.
