Affordable Housing Deal Made By Sara Grillo MANCHESTER – An ordinance was recently passed that reflects a settlement agreement with a developer who has expressed interest in the helping the township meet its fair share housing obligation. The ordinance for the housing project on Route 571 – more specifically at 3500 and 3576 Ridgeway Road – sets aside 20 percent of the units to be for affordable housing. Of those 404 units, 60 percent will be garden apartments and 40 percent will be townhomes. There is no word yet of how many will be one, two or three bedrooms, or how many children might live there. The housing project is also part of Manchester’s overall affordable

Jersey Native Turns Movie Maker
By Sara Grillo HOWELL – From Jersey to L.A. and back again, Kevin Interdonato is a local movie star about to release his newest hit, which he stars in alongside Hollywood veteran Tom Sizemore, former boxing champion Ray “Boom-Boom” Mancini and Brian O’Halloran of Clerks fame. Interdonato said he always knew he wanted to act. “Growing up in Howell I always wanted to be an actor, I just wasn’t ready yet. I had to get a lot out of my system.” That meant growing up working in the family construction busi-
ness, which his dad still runs, joining the Army National Guard his senior year at Howell High School and taking a couple semesters at Brookdale Community College. (Movie - See Page 5)

Car Slams Into Motorcycle, Injures Two
By Sara Grillo MANCHESTER – A recent collision involving a motorcycle and two vehicles at the intersection of Routes 539 and 530 left two people with multiple injuries. Manchester Police found two people lying in the roadway injured and a red Harley Davidson Road King on its side against the curb when they arrived at the scene around 7:36 p.m. Also nearby were the other vehicles involved in the collision, a 2012 Hyundai Sonata and a 2012 Jeep Wrangler. An investigation revealed that the motorcycle, being driven by 41-year-old Brian Klapproth of Browns Mills, was leaving the Wawa Plaza and getting onto Route 539 South when it was struck by a Hyundai Sonata being driven by 85-year-old Leonard Cerame of Whiting, who was traveling westbound on Route 530. Klapproth and his passenger, Becky McCrosson, also of Browns Mills, were ejected from the motorcycle and thrown onto the Hyundai’s hood and windshield before landing on
the roadway. Cerame also collided with a Jeep Wrangler being driven by 26-year-old Kaitlyn McQueen of Forked River, who was stopped in traffic in the left turning lane of Route 530 East. Klapproth suffered abdominal injuries and was taken by ambulance to Community Medical Center in Toms River. McCrosson also sustained a head injury and substantial injuries to both arms and was taken by medevac helicopter to Jersey Shore University Medical Center. Cerame and McQueen were uninjured in the collision and did not seek medical attention. The motorcycle driver and passenger were both listed in stable condition as of the night of the accident. EMTs from Quality Medical Transport and paramedics from MONOC assisted at the scene. Portions of the roadway were closed for several hours during the crash investigation and cleanup. Patrolman Ian Bole of the department’s Traffic Safety Unit is investigating the crash.

Movie:
Continued From Page 1 He started to study acting when he was 20, but had to hit the brakes in 2004 when he was called to a year-long tour of duty in Iraq. He served in a unit nicknamed “The Sadr City Dogs,” named for Sadr City, the worst ghetto of Baghdad, where he saw heavy combat. After returning home safely, he said he wasn’t sure he still wanted to act. “It took some time, but I found my stride again, and eventually found my way back into the film business,” he said. Aside from many independent films, he also appeared in shows such as The Sopranos, Law & Order, CSI: NY and How To Get Away With Murder. After that, Interdonato said he had to make a choice and decided set out for Los Angeles in 2010 to continue acting and also start writing and producing, among what he described as an endless sea of other actors. “You’re surrounded by nothing but actors. It’s like people come from all over the world to go to L.A. to succeed,” he said. Ironically, his latest fi lm Bad Frank, which he starred in, co-wrote and produced, was filmed in New Jersey near Morristown. The film tells the story of Frank Pierce, who at fi rst seems to lead a calm and normal life. But when past memories come to the surface and something very valuable to him is taken, he is faced with the urge to be violent once again. Interdonato said he got the offer to play the role fi rst, and then helped rewrite the script and produce the project, before bringing some friends on board as actors
–Photos courtesy Kevin Interdonato Kevin Interdonato grew up in Howell, but moved out to L.A. to pursue his passion for acting and the movie business.
Bad Frank also features Brian O’Halloran, who appeared in Kevin Smith’s Clerks movies. and production people. He said what started out as a low budget film has been really blowing up. It’s the fi rst movie he’s both written and produced, although certainly not the last. Bad Frank won 20 Best Actor awards and nominations at various film festivals throughout the U.S. and Europe, and also won big in London, which grabbed the attention of another filmmaker and landed him a role in the film False Witness, which just wrapped up in April. The movie trailer for Bad Frank was released July 7 on Amazon and iTunes. It will also hit Redbox soon. What’s Next? Interdonato has another film, Dirty Dead Con Men, coming out this fall, which he also wrote and produced, alongside his wife. He’s also recently been cast in the film Asbury Park, which is being filmed this fall in – you guessed it – Asbury Park. As for any writing projects? He’s working on Brusco, which he hopes to be shooting next year in Howell and the surrounding area. “I’m attracted to the work more than any specific genre,” he said, adding that he tends to get pegged for more “edgier” roles than anything else. “For the most part, this business is based on how you look.” While he said there’s still a lot of work to be had out in L.A., he and his wife, who he met there, will be splitting their time between the best of both worlds – La La Land and New Jersey.

From The Desk Of The Ocean County Freeholders: County Waiving Tire Recycling Fees To Combat Mosquitos
TOMS RIVER – Ocean County will temporarily waive its tire recycling fee in order to encourage old tire recycling and assist in the effort to curtail mosquito breeding grounds. “This is a program that is brought about by a partnership with the Ocean County Mosquito Extermination Commission and the Ocean County Department of Solid Waste Management,” said Ocean County Freeholder John P. Kelly, who serves as liaison to the Mosquito Commission. “This will be particularly helpful now and throughout the summer as we move into the height of mosquito season in Ocean County.” The County, under an agreement with the Ocean County Mosquito Extermination Commission, will use $23,082 in funding from the 2017 Center for Disease Control ELC Capacity Building Efforts federal grant distributed through the state Department of Environmental Protection, Office of Mosquito Control Coordination, to waive the $2 tire recycling fee. The free tire recycling program will begin August
1 and will continue until the funds are depleted. Ocean County Freeholder Gerry P. Little, who serves as liaison to the county’s recycling program, said residents can drop off old tires at either of the county’s regional recycling centers. Tires can be brought to the Ocean County Northern Recycling Center, New Hampshire Avenue in Lakewood, or the Ocean County Southern Recycling Center, Recovery Road in Stafford Township, from 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Saturday. Residents will be limited to dropping off no more than five tires per day. “This program will help our efforts to be good environmental stewards and to reduce the risks of mosquito vectors known to transmit the Zika virus,” said Little, who also serves as liaison to the Ocean County Board of Health. “We need to be vigilant especially this time of year and raise awareness to help control the mosquito population for the health and safety of our residents.” The Ocean County Mosquito Extermination Commission was awarded the grant to support its activities in
identifying and controlling mosquitoes with a particular emphasis on activities designed to monitor for and control any identified populations of exotic invasive mosquito vectors known to transmit Zika virus. “We are hopeful this program will help encourage our residents to clear their property of old tires and bring them to our recycling centers where they will be discarded properly, said Ocean County Freeholder Director Joseph H. Vicari. Ocean County collects about 3,000 tires a year for recycling and anticipates that number to increase with the waiving of the fee. “The Ocean County Mosquito Extermination Commission maintains vigilance year-round in order to keep down the mosquito population,” said Freeholder Kelly, Director of Law and Public Safety. “Successful mosquito extermination comes from a combined effort on the part of the County and also its citizens.” The Mosquito Extermination Commission employs an extensive surveillance program using light traps and landing rate counts that are
collected around the County daily during the mosquito season which typically runs from May 1 to September 30. Once locations are identified, there are several measures that can be used to control the mosquito population, depending upon the situation. The method is known as Integrated Pest Management. According to Michael Romanowski, commission superintendent, chemical application is one method with the main concentration on larvicide applications to control the pre-adult mosquito. There also are biological controls, such as mosquito predaceous fish or the use of copepods. Another possibility is source reduction whereby the habitat can be altered to prevent future mosquito production, he said. The commission uses its ground spray trucks, each equipped with power sprayers to apply larvicides. If the areas are very large, the commission has two helicopters to treat the areas aerially. However, most of the aerial applications are made on
the county’s extensive salt marshes. “Ocean County has long been known for its large numbers of salt marsh mosquitoes,” Romanowski said. “Through a process known as Open Marsh Water Management, the problematic salt marsh areas can be managed through the use of amphibious equipment, to eliminate the mosquito production without the use of pesticides. Once completed, the areas become more useful to other members of the tidal food web, and remain in that state indefinitely.” While Ocean County looks at the bigger picture in controlling the mosquito population, the Freeholders strongly urge residents to get involved with helping to reduce the population especially by eliminating areas that can act as breeding grounds on private property. “Since many breeds of mosquitoes use containers like discarded tires that are commonly found around populated areas, eliminating the sources of water is often the best approach to controlling this mosquito popu-
lation,” said Kelly, who also serves as a commissioner on the Mosquito Extermination Commission. “Extermination commission workers often pickup tires as they treat areas for mosquitoes. These mosquitoes can often be found in water amounts as small as that of a bottle cap.” Other common problematic areas are planter bases, tarps, garbage pails, and the many other water containers found around the home or business. “Most of our residents do not realize just how extensive our mosquito extermination program is,” said Kelly. “We take this threat very seriously and work to make certain our residents and visitors are safe from mosquitoes and the ongoing threat they may pose.” Residents who have questions about mosquitoes and concerns can contact the commission by calling 609698-8271, Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 3:30 pm. For additional tips, visit the commission website at oceancountymosquito.org. For more information on the tire recycling program, call 1-800-55-RECYCLE.

into the royal family, precocious cub Simba spends his days exploring the sprawling savanna grasslands and idolizing his kingly father, Mufasa, while youthfully shirking the responsibility his position in life requires. When an unthinkable tragedy, orchestrated by Simba’s wicked uncle, Scar, takes his father’s life, Simba flees the Pride Lands, leaving his loss and the life he knew behind. Eventually companioned by two hilarious and unlikely friends, Simba starts anew. But when weight of responsibility and a desperate plea from the now ravaged Pride Lands come to find the adult prince, Simba must take on a formidable enemy, and fulfill his destiny to be king.

Housing:
Continued From Page 1 being in its third round Mount Laurel obligation with the Council on Affordable Housing, or COAH, which mandates that all townships in New Jersey have a constitutional obligation to provide their fair share of affordable housing. This is by no means a unique scenario. Fusaro pointed out that Manchester is in the same boat as many other townships in the county and the state when it comes to affordable housing. “The numbers were basically challenged by every township within the state,” he said. Township Attorney Angela Koutsouris shared that back in 2014, COAH advised that Manchester be responsible for building 750 affordable units. The Fair Share Housing Center, a New Jersey nonprofit

There were pig races, trained dogs showing off their
that defends housing rights, asked them to build an excess of 1,000 units. The New Jersey Superior Court eventually decided on 655 units, but after several meetings and negotiations, and a final Fairness Hearing on April 7, the township managed to settle on an ending number of 340 units. If townships are found not to be compliant with their affordable housing mandates, it opens the door for builders’ remedy lawsuits. Fusaro said that in 2004, there were about seven builders’ remedy lawsuits for around 10,000 homes in Manchester, most of which were senior homes. “We had some meetings with other developers who I think saw the town’s situation as vulnerability and were trying to get more than the town was willing to give up,” said Koutsouris. Some residents at the council meeting where the ordinance was introduced wondered why
Plan For The Land If the 404-unit housing project is built, it will credit Manchester with 81 affordable housing credits toward its 340 goal. Township Tax Assessor and Affordable Housing Liaison Martin Lynch said there’s a townhouse development currently under construction on Routes 70 and 571 that will offer 17 affordable housing credits, but there is still a long way to go. By contrast, COAH offers double credits for housing projects that are 100 percent affordable, but that isn’t necessarily Manchester’s plan.
“This project is good because it’s not all affordable. The units will be mixed in throughout the project,” said Lynch. He said the affordable projects are better maintained when they are mixed in with market rate units. The developer of this 404-unit project originally came in with a higher set aside number for affordable housing, but eventually came down to the number the township needed. The goal, he said, is to “see projects built that have a 20 percent set aside – not a project that was going to build all affordable in one location.” Now that the ordinance passed, Lynch said the developer needs to come before the township planning board, and that the township will be fi nalizing their affordable housing plan that was identified the settlement agreement, which this project is a part of.
skills, and horsemanship shows. A petting zoo featured some animals not often seen in Berkeley Township, such as camels, an elephant, and a kangaroo. The 4-H kids showed off the barnyard and home-raised animals they had nurtured. The 4-H display, still a large portion of the festivities, also displayed projects the kids worked on throughout the year. There were works of art, reports on environmental causes, and even a hamster obstacle course.
A chainsaw carver left behind some work for sale. A local tree removal company would supply him with the logs. Sometimes, it is something unusual, like a blue cedar. Kids had the opportunity to race remote control cars. Then, they could see the real thing, with some off-road vehicles. As usual, the interior of the fair was full of tents set up with people selling things like caricatures, t-shirts, arts and crafts. There were also home improvement companies
and government offices. Some rides rose up into the air, overhead of the tents. Some were firmly on the ground, for smaller children to go around a track. There were playhouses for different ability levels or theme: Spongebob to Disney to horror movies. Mixed in around the rides were a majority of the food vendors. Fair mainstays dominated the choices, including kettle corn, lemonade, cotton candy and deep fried anything.
Manchester’s high volume of low-income senior developments did not go toward meeting its affordable housing quota. Koutsouris explained that the state mandates only 25 percent of a township’s affordable housing can be considered age-restricted.

Esteem Hearing Implant If you’ve been looking for a long-term solution for your hearing loss– one that bypasses the maintenance and inconvenience of daily hearing aid wear– we like to educate you about the revolutionary Esteem® Hearing Implant. Look and feel your best with the confidence of hearing assistance that’s invisible, that’s with you 24/7 and that works in all conditions – even underwater. All with no fragile, external instruments to wear like the BAHA or Cochlear Implant. Esteem is the only FDA-approved, fully implanted, active middle-ear hearing device. It works by electronically sensing sound at the eardrum, processing and amplifying that sound to suit your specific needs, then directing the sound to the cochlea through the chain of tiny bones in the inner ear. Because Esteem works with your ears’ natural mechanism for receiving sound, it does not use a speaker or an artificial microphone. As a result, the background noise, distortion and
feedback commonly experienced with hearing aids are greatly reduced. With Esteem you hear more naturally, without any uncomfortable blockages of the ear canal. Early patients are reporting positive results with Esteem and are greatly enjoying more natural, improved hearing, not to mention freedom from the daily routine of wearing hearing aids. With nothing to wear, nothing to lose and the benefit of low-maintenance, waterproof hearing assistance, people are living their active lives with better hearing more fully than they have in years. Call Dr. Izzy to find out if the Esteem Hearing Implant is right for you. Not all patients are candidates for Esteem, so call today to find out if this amazing technology might be an option for you! Please keep in mind that not all patients are candidates for the Esteem. Please go to esteemhearing.com for important safety information on the Esteem.
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.
I Bet I Can Make You Yawn By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
Last week I forced myself to stay up two nights in a row to work. I certainly had work to do, but I also wanted to evaluate my brain function after sleep deprivation. The following morning, I was yawning quite a bit while sharing the story with Sam. He jokingly snapped, “Hey, stop that! You’re making me yawn!” I thought that was hilarious and kept my eye on him for several minutes, and sure enough, when I yawned, he yawned. Yawns are known to be “contagious,” especially if you are emotionally connected with one another. Did I get you to yawn just yet? Saying the word out loud or reading “yawn” triggers a yawn. They’re usually satisfying in nature, and if they’re not, it is thought to be your subconscious inability to let go. One yawn lasts about 6 seconds and during that time, your heart probably beats faster. A yawn does not really happen just because you’re bored or tired. I mean it could, but it doesn’t have to. For decades, doctors said it was your brain’s attempt to pull more oxygen in for the tissues. Research on animals published in The International Journal of Applied Basic Medical Research in June 2017 points to yawning as a way to drain lymph from around the brain. That’s interesting because we are only now realizing the brain actually has a lymphatic system. We, meaning humans, yawn in the womb, and yes, it’s boring in there for sure, but around 11 to 20 weeks post-conception, it can be seen on ultrasound. Another interesting fact about yawning is that medica-
tions can cause it. For example, one of the biggest offenders is the category of antidepressants, especially the SSRIs and SNRIs like Prozac and Cymbalta, respectively. Benzodiazepines (clonazepam, alprazolam) and opiate analgesics (hydrocodone, oxycodone, morphine) will often trigger yawning attacks – it’s a well-documented side effect during normal treatment. It’s more apt to happen during ‘interdose withdrawal’ (the hours in-between your scheduled doses of the day), or more likely when you quit taking these drugs, which requires a long tapering process. Yawning attacks induced from antidepressants, benzos and opiates are almost always annoying and uncomfortable. Anesthetics used to sedate you before surgery can cause yawning. And a big yawn-inducing category are the dopaminergic used in Parkinson’s such as L-dopa or Levodopa (Sinemet contains that) or Apokyn (Apomorphine). Did you know that the complete disappearance of yawns could indicate damage to your hypothalamus? It’s specifically damage to the dopaminergic (dopamine-producing) neurons. This is why Parkinson’s patients yawn less frequently. Likewise, the effectiveness of Parkinson’s drug therapy can actually be gauged if the patient begins to yawn again. Some researchers think you yawn more if you are depressed. I’m not really convinced of that. Confirming this is difficult because depressed folks often have insomnia, so they are going to naturally be more fatigued during the day, and probably yawn more too.

Stockton University To Host Ability Fair
GA LLOWAY – Da n ny, a t her apy horse, will join two Stockton University employees and an Atlantic City police officer at the third free Ability Fair presented by Stockton and the Bacharach Institute for Rehabilitation from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Wednesday, July 26 in the Stockton University Campus Center, located at 101 Vera King Farris Drive in
Galloway Township. Speakers include Associate Professor of Hospitality and Tourism Management Studies William Quain, Stockton University Alumna Jacquelynn Cowles and Atlantic City Patrolman Mike Braxton. Each of these individuals has had personal experience with physical challenges.
Quain, who has low vision, is a well-respected professor at Stockton University. He will speak at 10:45 a.m. Cowles was born with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), a genetic disease that affects the part of the nervous system that controls voluntary muscle movement. She graduated from Stockton University in 2011 with a Bachelor of Arts in Commu-
nication Studies and is currently a lifestyle blogger. She will speak at 12:45 p.m. Braxton, who lost his lower leg in a motorcycle accident, is a para-athlete and member of the Atlantic City Police Department. The fair will also feature more than 60 vendors in adult and pediatric medicine who will share the latest technologies and services designed to assist children and adults with physical challenges in leading more fulfilling lives. Vendors will answer questions and provide live demonstrations on some of their top products, including power wheelchairs, ramps, home remodeling, accessible cars and assistive devices. Sponsors include South Jersey Gas, Atlantic Medical Imaging Foundation, Brunswick Mobility and Purdy Automotive Group. New to the event will be Cigna’s Health Improvement Tour. The group is touring the country in a 30-foot trailer and will stop at the fair to conduct health assessments. Hearing screens will be available by Bacharach Doctors of Audiology. Learn how the InMotion Arm Robot from Bionik is used for rehabilitation therapies. Several pediatric vendors will attend including Bayada Pediatrics, Faces4Autism and Weisman Rehab. R82Convaid specializes in wheelchairs for children and will have several on display. Check out the latest communication devices from Tobii Dynavox and GPS tracking devices from KidsConnect. Danny, a therapy horse from Hearts Therapeutic Riding Center, will welcome everyone on the Campus Center lawn. The Ability Fair is free, open to the public and scooter, walker and wheelchair accessible. Free transportation is available through Uber.

Inside The Law Educating Our Community On Nursing Home Abuse By Michael Deem, Esq. at R.C. Shea And Associates
People put their elderly parent or grandparent in a nursing home so that they can be safely taken care of, so that someone can properly look after them in their old age. No one expects that these nursing home residents should get anything less than the proper care and respect that they deserve, but with the horrifying rise in nursing care abuse, this is not always the case. According to the National Center on Elder Abuse in the United States, more than 30 percent of all nursing homes in America indulge in some form of resident abuse. Statistics show that nearly 50 percent of all nursing homes are short staffed. The staff people who do work in these facilities are underpaid, overworked, and all too often overburdened, which in turn leads to elder neglect and abuse. Even more alarming is the prediction that the problem will only worsen in the near future. More than 91 percent of nursing homes lack adequate staff to properly care for patients. A Health and Human Services Department report found patients in understaffed nursing homes were more likely to suffer from a variety of problems, such as bed sores, malnutrition, weight loss, dehydration, pneumonia, and serious blood born infections. It’s a serious concern that will only increase with time, given that the population of people aged 85 or older is expected to double to 8.9 million by the year 2030. Signs of abuse and neglect may be (but are not limited to) evidence such as patterns of bruising, unexplained injuries, frequent infections, bedsores, questionable hygiene, appearance of malnutrition, emotional distress, and unsanitary living conditions. Document any such evidence you observe, and
Robert C. Shea Esq.
Michael J. Deem
bring it to the attention of your attorney. Neglect can be just as harmful in the long run as abuse, leading to additional health problems and possibly death. Nursing home abuse isn’t limited to physical abuse; there can also be emotional, verbal, and psychological abuse, where an elder is demeaned or humiliated in other ways. Many elders needlessly suffer from nursing home abuse in which they are manipulated, humiliated, or physically harmed by the very people entrusted with providing them with loving and tender care. Instances of physical, sexual and verbal abuse have taken place at the very nursing homes where elders are actually supposed to be well taken care of; unfortunately, cases of nursing home abuse in America and also in New Jersey are rising rather than falling. If you think a loved one is the victim of Nursing Home Abuse call the trial attorneys at R.C. Shea & Associates for a free consultation to discuss their rights. The law firm of R.C.

Dear Joel
By Joel Markel
Overly Friendly Neighbors
Dear Joel, My wife and I have lived in our home for 45 years and love our neighbors, but they recently moved to a senior living community. The new family that bought their house seem like very nice people, except that they belong to a different faith that they always want to “share” with me. I want to be a good neighbor, but how can I get along with them when I feel like screaming “shut up” when they start trying to convert me? Dennis, Forked River Dear Dennis, In the big picture of all the bad things that could have happened with new neighbors, this may not be the worst one. Can you imagine if they threw crazy parties every weekend, blasting music and slamming car doors? What if they left garbage and litter all around, or started doing big renovations with saws
and hammers going all day? I know someone trying to convert you may make you want to run and hide, but tell them simply that you have lived in your home for 45 years and that you and your previous neighbor agreed to never talk about politics or religion. Remind them that the best expression of any religion lies in the actions taken by its faithful followers. Tell them too that you appreciate their consideration and that you will be sure to reach out to them if you are ever curious. Then practice what you preach by sharing a friendly smile whenever you see them. They are probably nice folks who will get the message in just a little while. Write to joel@preferredcares.com. His radio show, “Preferred Company” airs on Monday through Friday from 8 to 10 a.m. on preferredradio.com and 1160 & 1310 WOBM-AM
If you or anyone else is in need of home health care, call Preferred at 732-840-5566. “Home health care with feeling. Joel Markel is President of Preferred Home Health Care and Nursing services inc. serving all of New Jersey in adult, senior and pediatric home health care.”

Elks Ride For Homeless Veterans
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. The Jackson Elks hosted this year’s event, but it’s a collaboration between many local Elks – including Brick, Bayville, 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. For the first three years of the 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” was 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. 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 –Photo courtesy Jackson Elks will be the 6th year the event raises money for local Motorcyclists took a scenic ride to the William C. Doyle Memorial Cemetery. homeless veterans.
County Aims To Make Road Curves Safer
By Chris Lundy OCEAN COUNTY – High friction curve treatments are going to be instituted at several busy roads to improve safety, Ocean County engineer John Ernst said. High friction curve treatments help tires grip the roadway better and lead to fewer crashes.
They will be installed on curves on the following roads: Lacey and Waretown: Route 532 - Waretown Road and Wells Mills Road Manchester and Lacey: Route 614 Lacey Road and Lacey Road East Berkeley: Route 618 Dover Road
Plumsted: Long Swamp Road and Brindletown Road Toms River: Dock Street Point Pleasant: River Road and Arnold Avenue Jackson: Freehold Road The ordinance to install these treatments, which would be paid for with $5 million in
bonds, was brought up at the most recent Ocean County Freeholders meeting. However, since there were only three Freeholders in attendance, they could not vote on the measure because four members are needed. Therefore, it was held off until the next meeting, on July 19 at 4 p.m.

PROFESSIONAL PROFILE “It’s Like Family Here,” Say The Patients Of Whiting Pharmacy By Michael Vandenberg Dr. Nirmit Patel (or Nick for his patients) knows that going to the pharmacy isn’t exactly a night on the town for most people. We’ve all had to deal with those irritating 45 minute waits sitting in a lonely chair in a “big box,” his nickname for those giant corporate pharmacies, while we’re fighting cold symptoms or worse after a long trip to the doctor. What happened to the times when your local neighborhood pharmacist would greet you by name, ask how you’re feeling, and know all your medications already? Whiting Pharmacy is here to do just that as a “pharmacy for the community and for the people.” As a former employee, Nick definitely knows about the downsides of those big boxes. After getting his doctor of pharmacy in 2012, he worked at one of those large chains (who shall remain nameless) for about a year and a half. After some time at a small pharmacy, he was ready to get out on his own. There was a vacant former bank right in the heart of Whiting available for lease, the perfect location for Whiting Pharmacy, which has now been offering unique service to the surrounding community and beyond since 2015.
Part of the reason for their success is their personal staff. Unlike the big box pharmacies, where you see a different person behind the counter every time you go there, Whiting Pharmacy has just four people on staff. Besides Nick, there is his wife Jessy who is also a pharmacist, technician, and cashier (and, they jest, the electrician and handyman as well). In addition, Teetee is a cashier and delivery person, and
Courtney LeBaron is their main technician. Together, Whiting Pharmacy is on a mission to fi nd every single way to improve their patients’ care. One of those many ingenious methods is pre-packaging medication in custom blister packs. After switching to Whiting Pharmacy, all those hours you used to spend sorting your medications into your weekly pill orga-
nizers will be a thing of the past. When you pick up your pills, they’ll already be organized into separate packs that are even color-coded for different times of the day. Going to a party at your friend’s house for the night? Just grab that evening’s pack and you’re on your way. Another thing that sets Whiting Pharmacy apart is its ability to compound medication. Under the careful guidance of the Professional Compounding Centers of America, they have the ability to slightly alter medications for people that need them but, usually because of an allergy to one specific ingredient, can’t take them. Too often, medicine from the manufacturer is made on a onesize-fi ts-all system. “We compound medication as per the patient’s need,” said Nick. For example, your doctor may issue you something that you can’t take because you happen to be allergic to one of the dyes in the medication. “If that’s the only product on the market that works for your condition, how do you take the medication? So now we can compound the medication for you without the dye.” Or, if you have a condition where
you can’t take a pain medication orally, they can turn it into a cream that you can apply directly to the affected area. There are even different methods (creams, capsules, etc.) for hormone replacement therapy. “Again,” Nick assured us, “we work very closely with the doctors to get the medication that works per fectly for the patient.” Another way Whiting Pharmacy works for you is their 10 minute prescription fulfillment guarantee. How are they able to do it so quickly compared to the big box pharmacies? In a large corporate culture, lots of things contribute to your wait time, explained Nick. “You need to make sure you sign up five people for automatic refill, and 15 flu shots, and a drive-through at the same time, and then you’ll have
to get on a conference call in the middle of a Monday.” But at Whiting Pharmacy, they don’t have those constraints; it’s just you and your medication. With their independence and state of the art computer system, they can prioritize what they need. If something comes in on their morning delivery, they’ll have it out to you the same day. Also, with such a small staff, they know these patients already and know what they take, which greatly speeds up the process. If the doctor makes a mistake, they can catch it a lot faster. “When you go to a pharmacy, you don’t want to wait more than ten minutes, and you shouldn’t have to.” But you don’t even need to wait at all thanks to their free pickup and delivery service. For Whiting Pharmacy, the question isn’t
why offer this service, but why not? They’re in the business of helping people and strive to be good neighbors, so picking up patients’ prescriptions and delivering them to their doors is just part of the package. Just recently, Teetee received a call from a new patient that just got out of the hospital and needed his pain medication. While he went home to rest, she drove to his doctor to pick up the prescription, and then later brought it right to his door. “I said, ‘Would you like me to bring this back to you?’” she asked him. “Would you?” he asked, surprised. “It would be my pleasure,” she said. It’s time to switch to a pharmacy that gives you the individual care you deserve. Call 732-849-3141 or visit them at 200 Lacey Road in Whiting today!

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of July 22 - July 28 By Jeraldine Saunders
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Keep your finger off the trigger in the week ahead. You could be tempted to put too many irons in the fire or to take unnecessary risks. Focus instead on spending your money wisely and on things of lasting beauty. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): People are willing to forgive and forget in the week to come. Use your time wisely and focus on making loved ones feel comfortable, cherished, and desirable. Demonstrate your good taste when making key purchases. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Reiterate important commitments. In the upcoming week you may be thrown into contact with someone who seems to wear a halo or acts like an angel where you are concerned. You will have divine help when needed. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Touch your nose while you rub your tummy. Work on becoming better coordinated this week. The foot that seems to be caught in your mouth could be a sign that an apology to a significant someone will be needed. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Take pains to use powers of perception. Pushy people may want their way in the week ahead, but might lack the ability to explain their needs. To avoid confusion set up a powwow and you can discuss a comfortable compromise. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Defend and protect what you own and what you believe in. Unless you guard an important thing someone may take it away from you. In the week ahead enjoy having some extra spending money to use for lovely items.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Someone loves you a bushel and a peck. In the week to come you might find that you are more popular than usual. You efforts could be appreciated in the workplace, so may find it easy to make progress with your career. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Learn something valuable from those who are older and wiser. Be careful not to create misunderstandings with family members or loved ones who are an integral part of your life. Be thrifty in the week to come. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Solve the puzzle. A maze doesn’t necessarily lead to a dead end, although you might hit a few walls. In the week ahead ask for assistance or advice from experienced people who have traveled the same route. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Ignorance is bliss. Think about this carefully as you stroll through the week with a heavenly smile on your face. Being on cloud nine does not guarantee that the promise made today will be kept tomorrow. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Everything has a price tag. This week you may be prodded by your conscience to show you are polite and return favors. A generous donation, reciprocal dinner date, or paying a commission can knock your budget on its ear. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You may think it is in vogue to be vague. In the week ahead you may be challenged to present your views in a straightforward manner. Control an urge to spend money rashly or to take unnecessary risks.

Easy Does It: There’s No Sufferin’ Over This Simple Succotash Recipe By Wolfgang Puck
Cooking with the seasons has become a big catchphrase these days. And it’s easy to understand why. When you plan meals around what’s freshest in the farmers’ market, you almost always ensure that the food you put on your table will have the best flavor and texture while also offering the most nutritional benefits - and all at the greatest savings. Many people think of cooking with the seasons, though, as if those words also promise endless variety, as if each trip to the market will reveal wonderful new produce to bring fresh excitement to your meals. And, yes, often that does happen, as new items gradually come into season. More often, however, in the midst of any given season, each new visit to the farmers’ market is just as likely to present you with the same ingredients over and over again. That can, of course, excite your imagination, encouraging you to look for new ways to cook the same ingredients. Just as often, however, it can make you wish for a perfect “go-to” recipe, something easy that you simply won’t grow tired of no matter how many times you prepare it. That’s how I feel about succotash, the old-fashioned summertime vegetable mixture whose name comes from “boiled corn kernels” in the language of the Narragansett tribe, whose lands became part of Rhode Island. In colonial days, settlers began using that term to describe mixtures of cooked corn with other summer/early autumn vegetables. The dish’s popularity has endured to this day, despite any negative connotations from the often repeated, exasperated exclamation of Sylvester the Cat in the old Looney Tunes cartoons: “Sufferin’ succotash!” Succotash is, in fact, a recipe not likely to cause you much suffering. It starts with fresh ears of corn, from which you cut the raw kernels off the cob with the help of a sharp knife and a slip-resistant cutting board. Then you saute the corn and combine it with equal-sized pieces of other summer vegetables such as zucchini and bell pepper, plus onion, garlic, celery, fresh herbs and spices. It’s an incredible, simple dish to make, and one you and your family aren’t likely to tire of, especially since you can switch up the recipe with other vegetables such as lima beans or yellow summer squash, hot chiles and different herbs or spices. Serve your succotash as a side for grilled or roasted food; or treat it as a sort of
chunky sauce, presenting the main dish on top of it. It’s even fun to toss the succotash with freshly cooked pasta for a vegetarian main dish. You may be surprised by how often you wind up cooking it - without a moment of sufferin’! SUMMER VEGETABLE SUCCOTASH Serves 4 3 large ears white or yellow sweet corn, shucked, all corn silk removed 1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 medium zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch (6-mm) dice 2 celery stalks, darker green leafy ends trimmed, cut into 1/4-inch (6-mm) dice 1 red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch (6-mm) dice 1 medium white onion, cut into 1/4-inch (6-mm) dice 1 tablespoon minced garlic 1/2 tablespoon minced fresh thyme leaves 1 bay leaf Juice of 1/2 lime Pinch cayenne Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 1 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley, for garnish First, cut the kernels from the shucked ears of corn: Steadying one end of an ear of corn on a slip-resistant cutting board, with the corn at an angle away from you, carefully use a sharp knife to cut off the kernels several rows at a time, cutting downward from the nearest end to the other, parallel to the cob. Transfer the kernels to a bowl. Repeat with the remaining ears of corn. In a heavy cast-iron skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot enough to flow easily, add the corn kernels and saute them, stirring frequently, until they begin turning golden brown, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer the corn to a bowl and set aside. Carefully wipe out the skillet with paper towels. Return the skillet to the heat. Heat the remaining olive oil and, when it is hot, add the zucchini, celery, bell pepper, onion and garlic. Saute, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender but not yet browned, about 10 minutes. Stir in the thyme, bay leaf, lime juice, cayenne, salt and black pepper to taste, and continue to cook for 3 minutes more. Stir in the reserved sauteed corn kernels and cook for another 3 minutes. Serve immediately, garnished with the parsley.
