Middle, bottom: Sophia Bolletieri, 2, enjoys the rededicated playground By Chris Lundy BERKELEY – The lagoon areas of Bayville have come a long way since Superstorm Sandy, but there is still work being done.
At the end of summer, almost five years after it devastated the community, there are still houses being rebuilt and raised, and a park is being finished. (Beach - See Page 4)
Rt. 166 Streetscape Project Completing By Chris Lundy SOUTH TOMS RIVER – The streetscape project on Route 166 is being completed, which is expected to make the area safer and look nicer, officials said. The project is centered on sidewalks and curbing on either side of Route 166 in front of several businesses. Previously, there were minimal places to walk or ride a bicycle. Additionally, the parking lot on the northbound side was wide open to the roadway in several places, allowing cars to come and go at a number of different spots. This was very unsafe. The project installed sidewalks and curbing. –Photos by Chris Lundy One goal was to allow places for people to walk Sidewalks and curbs were being installed on Route 166 or ride their bicycle, business administrator (Streetscape - See Page 5) in South Toms River.

Berkeley To Ban Hunting Near Homes
By Chris Lundy BERKELEY – The Township Council introduced an ordinance that would ban hunting near homes. The new ordinance would ban the use of an unsheathed shotgun, loaded firearm, or nocked arrow within 450 feet of any inhabited building in town. The old ordinance only banned hunting within 1,000 feet of parks and recreation. Now, this was changed to 450 feet. The change updates Berkeley’s laws to match the state laws, business administrator John Camera said. The administration had received several calls from residents regarding hunting in close proximity to their homes, Camera said. This prompted township officials to look at the ordinance on the books. It was seen that the township code only regulated the distance from public recreation facilities and not the distance from homes. The Township Council’s legislative committee and attorney met to settle on 450 feet from public facilities, schools, and homes. The second reading of this ordinance, after which it would be voted upon, is expected at the Township Council’s Sept. 25 meeting, held at 6 p.m. at the municipal building at 627 Pinewald-Keswick Road.

Beach:
Continued From Page 1 Butler Beach was one of Sandy’s many casualties. The beach was washed away. The playground was destroyed. David Butler remembers it a different way, back in the late 1950s, early 1960s. He recalled kids coming out to the area in their hot rods, spending the day at the beach, and playing the jukebox at a local joint. He attended the ribbon cutting reopening the beach with his wife, Kelly, and son, Taylor, who is a local police officer. He thanked the governing body for “bringing this back to the vision my family had.” David is the grandson of Marcus C. Butler, who was mayor f rom 19381958. He and his wife, Grace Rogers Butler, donated the beach to the town. According to local historians, the Butler family can be traced back to the “Fortune,” the ship that came after the Mayf lower. Grace Rogers Butler was a descendent of John Rogers. Her family dates back to the first settlers of what is now Ocean County. Because of the donation, the area became known locally as Butler Beach even though it had no official name. That is, until the Township Council officially named it that in June. “It’s because of their generosity that we’re here today,” Mayor Carmen Amato said at the ribbon cutting ceremony. The State Department of Environmental Protection approved the town’s plan to add another 740 cubic yards of sand to the beach, which will give it a much longer life expectancy, he said.
What’s new to the area is a 195-foot long, fou r-fo ot w ide c r abbi ng a nd f ishing pier that was already in use that morning. James Byrnes, who was still picking up a bit of trash that morning off the sand, said he wants people to help keep it clean. Quoting the township’s new push that if you “see something, say something,” he said that people should report any illegal activities going on here in order to keep it nice. The pirate ship-themed playground w a s r e d e d ic a t e d , si n c e it w a s i n stalled in 2015. It was a community effort, with about 100 volunteers and equ ipment donated by A lexa nd r a’s Playground. This is a nonprof it that installs t wo or th ree playg rounds a year. Dr. Michael Vitale, co-founder of Alexandra’s Playground, told the Asbury Park Press that the organization is named for his daughter, who died in a tragic accident in 2008. They wanted her legacy to be providing the gift of play to other children. Bill McGrath, a member of the township’s volunteer Waterways Committee, said it was a great movement rebuilding that. “It brought the community together as a whole after Sandy,” he said. Amato said that the donated equipment and volunteers saved Berkeley about $70,000. T he beach project cost $331,380. Amato said that he expects the Federal Emergency Management Agency will reimburse 90 percent of that. The town will apply to the Department of Community Affairs for a Community Development Block Grant for the remaining $33,138.

The team, made up of two crews of Army National Guard UH-60 “Black Hawk” helicopters and four Air National Guard Tactical Air Control Party specialists, all volunteered for the mission, which could last up to 60 days. “We’re hoping we can do some good down there,” said Air Guard Master Sgt. Chris Donohue. “It’s a rewarding mission to be able to help people in America. People are used to seeing the military go overseas. Now people get to see their return on investment and all the good things the military can do here.” Helicopter crews from the Army Guard’s 1-150th Assault Helicopter Battalion and the Air

Joseph Kostecki said. The other goal was to direct the traffic in and out of the parking lot in a more controlled manner. Improvements, like the decorative lights, were to make the area safer and more attractive.

According to Brigadier General Michael L. Cunniff, the Adjunct General of the New Jersey National Guard, if civil authorities in Texas request additional manpower through the National Guard Bureau, New Jersey is prepared to send even more troops to help. The mission is especially close to home for Army Guard Chief Warrant Officer 3 Quentin Hastings, an Oklahoma native, as many of his relatives live in Houston and the surrounding area. He has been in touch with a cousin who lives there through social media. “Last I heard was that he was in an apartment building with 20 feet of water on their first two floors,” Hastings said. “We’re all eager to get down there and help out.”
state road. However, the $644,000 work was overseen by the borough of South Toms River, he said. It was f unded entirely through grants. There were some delays in Trenton to getting this project done. Gov. Chris Christie halted many “non-essential” projects until the Transportation Trust Fund could be funded. He and Senate lawmakers were at odds on how to do this. Eventually, the gasoline tax was increased for this purpose.

By Sara Grillo MANCHESTER – The town of Manchester is home to this year’s Ms. New Jersey Senior America, Carolyn Slade Harden, who recently competed for the crown in the “Age of Elegance” pageant at Resorts Casino Hotel in Atlantic City. Ms. Senior America honors the achievements and inner beauty of women 60 years of age and older and encourages them to share their positive outlook on life with others. To win the pageant, which included categories of talent, philosophy of life, gown and a private interview, Harden sang the song “For Once In My Life.” Harden grew up in Newark, New Jersey alongside eight siblings. To entertain themselves at night, they would all sing. She sang during the day, too, and studied opera at Arts High School, the first public high school in the nation to specialize in visual and performing arts. Leading roles in Madame Butterfly, Aida and Carmen led to a career down the road in music, where she sang with Dionne Warwick, Dee Dee Warwick and Cissy Houston in several gospel groups. Harden produced three music records during the 1960s that topped the charts in multiple U.S. cities. Her debut songs were “I Saw You With My Best Friend” and “Eavesdropping,” followed by “I Wanna Know Right Now,” which was written by Van McCoy. Harden also served as choir director at churches throughout New Jersey, including the New Hope Baptist Church in Newark, where she conducted Whitney Houston in her first solo performance. “Growing up with family of singers as well, it kind of came natural to want to do that and to pursue that,” she said. These days, Harden spends her time at the Renaissance at Manchester, and was one of the first 300 people to move in back when the community was built. She is of course involved with directing the Renaissance Adult Community Chorus. While singing came naturally, competing was a first for Ms. Harden, who said she joined the pageant in order to give back. “They’ve got a gracious group of women,” she said, adding, “I wanted to be a part of it.” It turned out that the only way to be a part of it was to participate in the pageant. The first time that women from the Ms. Senior America orga-
nization came to the Renaissance to recruit for the pageant, she said no, as she was caring for her husband at the time. But the second time they came, she said yes. One of those Ms. Senior America women, who became a mentor during the pageant, was someone Harden went to high school with and who, like her, sang opera. Harden said that while she has a great support system at the Renaissance and is very involved with activities there, she still had too much time on her hands. She liked what the Ms. America group was doing, working in the community and with seniors. As Ms. Senior America, she will travel throughout the state as the featured performer in all New Jersey Cameo Club Showcases, performing in 55 and over communities, clubs, veterans’ hospitals, assisted living facilities and nursing homes. Her duties also include promoting the positive aspects of aging. Ms. America duties aside, Harden is someone who doesn’t stop at just one skill set. She received a Bachelor’s degree in Management Science with a major in Finance from Kean University, and just closed her business OfficeXperts, LLC last year. She currently runs the Harden Institute for Financial Independence, also known as the HIFI Club, where she helps teach youth the importance of managing their money, planning for the future and getting financially ready for college. Part of the HIFI Club is members of her own family. Harden has family members spread across 36 states, and she serves as family mentor, accompanying the parents of young cousins, nieces and nephews to the bank, or with setting up trust funds and investments. Perhaps due to her sound financial skills and advice, she has a daughter and son who are both successful entrepreneurs, as well as a granddaughter, grandson and great-granddaughter who no doubt have bright futures ahead. Harden will now go on to compete against women from other states in the Ms. Senior America National Pageant at Resorts Casino Hotel in Atlantic City in October. “I think Nationals offers an even greater challenge to get involved and I’m looking forward to doing that too,” she said.

Bartley Healthcare To Offer Bereavement Support Group
EYE STROKE
An “eye stroke” (known medically as “retinal artery occlusion”) is caused by a clot or narrowing of the retina’s blood vessels that interrupts blood flow. While an eye stroke is usually painless, it can bring about a sudden change in vision or loss of vision in one eye, which is often the first symptom. Other symptoms include a loss of peripheral vision, the appearance of “floaters,” and blurry or distorted vision. Vision changes may be mild at first, but then worsen over several hours or days. Immediate medical attention is required to prevent permanent damage and loss of sight. Those at highest risk of an eye stroke include individuals with atherosclerosis, hypertension, high cholesterol, and a history of heart attack/stroke. If you have symptoms of eye stroke, contact your doctor right away, even if they seem to be clearing up. Without treatment, an eye stroke can lead to permanent vision loss. At SUSSKIND & ALMALLAH EYE ASSOCIATES, P.A., our services go beyond writing a prescription. The comprehensive eye exams we conduct not only determine our patients need for vision correction but offer early detection and treatment of eye diseases. To schedule an eye exam, please call 732-349-5622. We emphasize Lasik, cataract surgery, glaucoma treatment, dry eye syndrome, macular degeneration, pediatric ophthalmology, and total eye care.

JACKSON – Bartley Healthcare is partnering with Holisticare Hospice to host a Bereavement Support Group every other month. We are all affected by grief and loss at some point in our lives, and everyone grieves in his or her own way. There are many different forms of grief, but you may want to consider a support group, where everyone gives and takes, and you are not alone. Many grieving people wonder if they would benefit from joining a support group. Support groups offer a few gifts: they provide hope, they can help a griever find new empathy, new understandings, and renewed strengths, and they can reaffirm that one is not alone. Grief is experienced in so many different ways – physical, emotional, and spiritual, and one needs a place to recognize that these reactions are part of the journey of grief. Anyone can attend this support group. You may have anticipatory grief, you may be grieving the loss of a loved one, or you may be a caregiver for someone with Alzheimer’s or Dementia. This Bereavement Support Group has been created for anyone
who would like a listening ear, or would like to listen to others share their feelings and emotions. The second Bereavement Support Group meeting will be hosted by Holisticare Hospice at Bartley Healthcare, at 175 Bartley Road in Jackson, on September 27 at 4 p.m. There will be light refreshments served. Seating is limited, so please RSVP to Lindsay, Marketing Coordinator, at 732-370-4700 x1368, or lconstantino@ bartleyhealthcare.com. For over 31 years, Bartley Healthcare has provided quality individual focused memory care, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and assisted living services for residents on its 25-acre campus in Jackson, NJ. Founded in 1985, Bartley Healthcare has long been recognized as an award winning, quality leader with the experience in memory care, skilled nursing, post-acute care, and assisted living.

–Photos by Lorrie Toscano Local children perform in Into the Woods Jr., which was produced by the non-profit Ocean Children’s Theatre Co. WHITING – Sisters Juliet and Olivia Sereda spent this past weekend regaling the excitement of the past few weeks. They both just finished performing as cast members in Into the Woods Jr., produced by Ocean Children’s Theatre Co. (OCTC), a Whiting-based non-profit theatre company that provides arts education, enrichment and performance opportunities for area youth. When asked about what these productions meant to her, Olivia said, “OCTC gives me the opportunity to live-out my passion for singing and acting, while being a part of a community of young artists.” Her sister Juliet echoed Olivia’s sentiments, and her mother, Lindsay Sereda, added, “My daughter has Down Syndrome; working with OCTC has helped her to come-out of her shell. I see a great amount of growth in her self-esteem, confidence,
communication, and social skills.” The teachers are so very pleased with this last production. Artistic Director Michael Grande said, “It’s such a rewarding experience to share our love of the performing arts with our students. We are so blessed to witness these students growing as performers and to sharing their gifts with the world.” Ocean Children’s Theatre Co. has students from various parts of Ocean County, including Manchester Township, Toms River, Brick and New Egypt. Board President Lu-Ann Cirone is a strong advocate for a fully inclusive program. OCTC is open to students of various levels of experience and to children with special needs. The next production is Annie Jr. and the show will take place on the weekend of December 8. For more information, please visit oceantheatreco.org or call 732-444-3275.

Walk/Run For Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation
SEASIDE PARK – A Hugh Claus Memorial Walk/Run to raise money for the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation is on September 24 at 2207 SW Central Ave. A 1-mile fun run starts at 9 a.m. and a 5K walk/run starts at 9:30 a.m. Same day registration begins at 7 a.m. Email Patty for more information at patty4tino@ yahoo.com. Early online registration for the 5K run is $25 and for the walk or fun run is $15, and includes a t-shirt. Same day registration for the 5K run is $35 and for the walk is $25. Proceeds will benefit the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation for amyloidosis research and awareness. For more information, visit chipmiller.org. Special awards will be given to the top male and female finishers and children 12 and under. All registered 5K walkers and runners are invited to an after race party hosted by Bum Rogers Crab House. Each year 3,000 cases of amyloidosis are diagnosed in the United States. Amyloidosis is generally a disease of middle-aged people and older, although the disease has been seen in individuals in their thirties. Men are more likely to be affected than women by a ratio of about 1.5:1. With early diagnosis, the outlook for patients with amyloidosis has shifted to hopeful in the last decade. The early diagnosis allows treatment to begin before the amyloid protein buildup in the body becomes too great to overcome. Without treatment, the outlook for patients with AL amyloidosis is not good, many passing away within 18 to 24 months after diagnosis. Early diagnosis is the key to managing the disease. Funds raised at events like this help researchers in their development of new ways to diagnose and treat this dreaded disease.

By Sara Grillo TOMS RIVER – Some people may feel that electric cars are merely transportation for hippies and millennials. But a new offer between Jersey Central Power & Light (JCP&L) and Nissan is offering a $10,000 rebate to customers interested in going electric. The offer applies to the 2017 all-electric Nissan Leaf. “I’m excited to introduce a great, great offer and take a look at this all-electric vehicle. It’s a super opportunity for our customers,” said James Fakult, President of JCP&L at an August 17 kick-off event at Pine Belt Nissan on Route 37. In order to qualify, JCP&L customers only need to produce two items: a copy of their electric bill and an official program flyer, and bring them both to a participating Nissan dealership. The offer runs until September 30. Mark Durbin, Energy Delivery & State Communications Manager at JCP&L said that Nissan approached them asking if they could offer the deal to their electric customers, and they said yes. In addition to the $10,000 rebate, Durbin said the federal government also offers up to $7,500 in tax credits for electric vehicles, and in New Jersey plug-in vehicles are exempt from sales tax. “You can come in here and do pretty well, save almost half the price of a vehicle,” he said. The 2017 Nissan Leaf, which retails from $30,000 to $36,000, can drive for a smooth, quiet 107 miles on a single charge, gives off zero emissions and comes in three trim models. Its seats are leather, heated and its hatchback-style trunk can fit up to five suitcases. Pine Belt Nissan Sales Representative Stefano Albanese explained the biggest difference between the Leaf and a traditional gas car – “filling it up.” “Unlike taking the time out of your day getting gas or even an oil change, you just plug it in,” he said. Albanese said there’s two ways of charging the Leaf while on the go: a quick charge that takes 30 minutes and gives you about an 80 percent charge, or using a triple charge cord found at dealerships or one of 30,000 public electric charging stations. Pine Belt Nissan President Joe Hill said there are two charging stations at the dealership that customers can use for free, even overnight. They can come in handy, especially for people
traveling down Route 37 on their way back from the beach. Hitting a “zero emissions” button near the Leaf’s steering wheel will bring up a list of the eight closest charging stations on your navigation panel. It will also free up more miles to drive, but slow the acceleration a bit. Another perk: instead of guessing how many miles you have left to drive based on how close your gas gauge is to empty, the Leaf counts the miles down as your drive. Hill said Pine Belt Nissan sells a good amount of Leafs, considering Toms River is not a big metropolitan area. “We sell probably over the year a dozen or so, which in this area is not bad,” he said, adding, “You don’t get that many commuters from Toms River to New York City.” The Leaf has been the most popular electric car for the dealership, and a good fit for someone who is environmentally conscious and not commuting hundreds of miles a day. “Electric vehicles are becoming more popular as people recognize the environmental and sustainability benefits they offer,” said Fakult in a statement. “This rebate from Nissan is designed to help get even more of these environmentally friendly vehicles on the road.” The Nissan Leaf has been around since 2010. “Despite its age, it’s still doing well,” said Cynthia Maves, who manages business development for the Leaf. Although its design has stayed the same, there have been substantial improvements since 2010, such as a bigger battery and better heating system. “You’re actually getting more range on the same amount of battery power now than back in 2012,” she said. Consumers can expect to see a redesigned body style and an even bigger battery in the 2018 Leaf model, which prices and specs will be released for in September. Maves also said state colleges like Rutgers University may currently be using some Leaf cars for transporting students around campus, and Indiana University just acquired four.

a segment on iconic Jersey Shore food and we came up on their radar screen,” he said. The production company arrived in the morning and was scheduled to be on site through mid-day, he said. They filmed some footage of the beach and boardwalk for flavor, and they also filmed inside the restaurant. They interviewed Maruca about the history of the business, and filmed staff
making their signature cheese and tomato pie, among other items. The staff at the restaurant did not yet know when the segment will air. A representative from the production company did not return attempts to contact them. Seaside Heights business administrator Christopher Vaz said that the production company, Tremendous Entertainment, filed
for a one day film permit. He said that he did not expect to have any disruption to residents or tourists. “It’s a small crew. They didn’t have a need for security or to block off any public portion for the B roll.” Most of the filming was inside the restaurant, he said. The B roll would be outside footage of the area.

Politicians, Environmentalists Rally Against EPA Cuts By Judy Smestad-Nunn BRICK – The Jersey Shore needs every single dollar of funding from the federal Environmental Protection Agency, and cuts proposed by the Trump administration have the potential of undoing years of environmental protections in the state, according to Congressman Frank Pallone (D–6th). Pallone joined state and local elected officials, Barnegat Bay environmentalists and members of the public for a press conference at the Mantoloking Bridge County Park on Thursday morning to demand protection for EPA funding. In September, the House of Representatives will vote on a budget that would cut 7 percent, or $.5 billion from the EPA, which would “devastate the agency,” Pallone said. The New Jersey coastal community would be particularly vulnerable, he said. “It’s not too late,” Pallone said. The cuts were connected to the idea that jobs and the environment can’t go together, “but that’s totally false.” “When I was elected to Congress in 1988, the beaches up and down New Jersey were closed because of garbage, toxic waste and medical waste in the water, and the state lost millions of dollars in jobs,” he said. Pallone said he wanted to address offshore drilling, which President Trump has moved to expand, and would include areas left out by President Obama, which include the Atlantic Coast and U.S. Arctic waters. “They feel they should be able to drill anywhere,” Pallone said. “They’re big on fossil fuels, but we should be focusing on renewable energy, like wind and solar.” “The cuts are an effort to dismantle the EPA, and that would manifest itself in so many ways,” he added. Pallone said that Scott Pruitt, who Trump chose to run the EPA, does not consult with any of the agency’s employees. “The EPA should be the most transparent department in government, because people have the right to know and to be empowered to learn and deal with pollution,” Pallone said. “The EPA has become a secret body, and that goes against the whole idea of environmental protection.” Zach McCue, who represented Cory Booker, read a statement from the senator, who had a scheduling conflict.
“The Trump administration values ideology and misinformation over protecting the environment,” he read. Trump withdrew the United States from the Paris Climate Agreement, and his agenda is “taking our nation backwards. We can’t sit idly by as the rest of the world addresses climate change. Enough is enough,” wrote Booker. Brick Mayor John G. Ducey said cuts to the EPA budget would affect the health, safety and welfare of all residents. Locally, EPA funds allow for the monitoring of the drinking water, the beaches, and the ground water that runs from the superfund site on Sally Ike Road. “We have a superfund site because there was no monitoring and no care, because there wasn’t the knowledge. Now we have the knowledge, so the superfund site has been capped and redeveloped as a solar farm,” Ducey said. Jeff Tittel, director of the NJ Sierra Club, said Trump has declared war on the environment with his budget cuts and it would have a disastrous effect in New Jersey. Some of the programs that would be eliminated include pollution testing for coastal waters, the elimination of the National Estuaries Program, the elimination of climate, clean water and superfund programs, and more, he said. “We are here today to say to President Trump, ‘hands off our environment.’ We’re here to stand up and say not anymore,” Tittel said. “No drilling off our coast. We want clean energy for a clean environment. Don’t turn science into political science,” he said. Mayor Bill Curtis of Bay Head agreed. “Offshore drilling would destroy our beaches. One oil spill would affect all ecological factions in our ocean. Cut other areas, not areas that affect our environment,” he said. Other attendees included Ed Potosnak, NJ League of Conservation Voters, Point Pleasant Beach Mayor Steve Reid; Lavallette Council President Anita Zalom; Brick Councilman Jim Fozman; Cindy Zipf and Dave Pringle, Clean Ocean Action; Britta Wenzel, Save Barnegat Bay; Tim Dillingham, American Littoral Society; Doug O’Malley, Environment NJ; Junior Romero, Food & Water Watch; Sandra Meola, NY/NJ Baykeeper; Trisha Sheehan, Moms Clean Air Force.

Does Hearing Really Effect My Golf Game?
Golf Digest conducted two tests that prove hearing’s link to the golf links: Depicted below are a summary of the results: From 150 Yards In: Ten golfers with handicaps between four and 16 hit 18 balls each to a green 150 yards away with and without earmuffs. Without earmuffs, the group hit the green 67 percent of the time. With earmuffs, the group hit the green only 53 percent of the time. Judging Your Putts: Ten golfers with handicaps between two and 17 hit a variety of 48 putts with three identical putters, with and without earmuffs. Without earmuffs, golfers correctly guessed the putts’ outcome (long, short, just right)
59 percent of the time. With earmuffs, players guessed correctly only 40 percent of the time. Arnold Palmer has been an active wearer of hearing aids for many years. Golf Digest interviewed Mr. Palmer about the benefits of wearing hearing aids when golfing. Mr. Palmer said, “Your eyes are key on the golf course but I can tell you that your ears are equally important to playing good golf.” Thus, if you’re an avid golfer suffering from hearing loss, you may want to have your hearing tested to determine whether hearing aids can be beneficial to you, in particular, helping your golf game and lowering your handicap.
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!
American Heart & Stroke Associations Seek Heartsavers
NEW JERSEY – Each year throughout New Jersey, hundreds of people become “heartsavers.” They see someone in need of help and take action by calling 9-1-1 and star ting CPR. Not only do they save a heart – they help save a life. The American Heart Association and American Stroke Association are currently seeking nominations for the American Heartsaver Awards. These awards recognize individuals who make a rescue effort to save the life of someone experiencing a cardiac emergency (e.g. sudden cardiac arrest) or people, organizations and businesses that take extraordinary steps to strengthen the American Heart Association Chain of Survival. In conjunction with National CPR and AED Awareness Week, the awards will be presented on June 4 at the Conference Center at Robert Wood Johnson Hamilton Center for Health and Wellness in Mercerville. For more information on the American Heartsaver Awards, eligibility or nomination materials, call the American Heart Association and American Stroke Association in New Jersey at 609-223-3734 or visit www.heart.org/newjersey. Nominations are due no later than April 30. According to the American Heart As-
sociation, nearly 424,000 people suffer from sudden cardiac arrest outside of a hospital each year and only an estimated 10 percent survive. Effective, immediate CPR can double or triple the rate of survival for a cardiac arrest victim, yet only 32 percent of cardiac arrest victims receive immediate bystander CPR. The American Heart Association and American Stroke Association are on a crusade in New Jersey and nationally to improve the survival rate from sudden cardiac arrest by “strengthening the chain of survival” – a five-step process that can mean the difference between life and death for someone experiencing cardiac arrest, heart attack, stroke and other medical emergencies such as choking and drowning. The critical bystander links for the chain of survival include calling 9-1-1, early CPR and early defibrillation. This effort of strengthening the chain of sur vival and administering early CPR and def ibrillation will help the American Heart Association and American Stroke Association reach its goal of improving the hear t health of all Americans by 20 percent while reducing deaths from cardiovascular diseases and stroke by 20 percent by the year 2020.

Assisted Living for the Memory Impaired
Nootropic Supplements – Nature’s Smart Pill
By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. Last month I wrote an article entitled, Alzheimer’s is A Guessing Game. Afterward, many of you emailed and shared your personal stories about this, and some were delightful, others heartbreaking. I truly understand. It brings to the forefront of my mind a woman named Mary, who I met at a Florida nursing home in the 90’s. I am going to tell you her story soon, so be sure to sign up for my newsletter at suzycohen.com. Today’s column will focus on natural remedies that support brain health and memory. Keep in mind that anything you want to try, please ask your physician if it’s right for you since I am not a doctor and besides, individual response varies. Now, for some intelligent brain-loving options, all available at health food stores nationwide (and possibly in your garden)! Lion’s Mane This is a medicinal mushroom, not an animal-derived furry ingredient. It is classified as a nootrope. Have you ever heard of that word before? Nootropics (“noah-trope-icks”) are defined as substances that can improve cognitive function. Nootropic substances, whether they are medications or supplements, simply contain supportive nutrients that will help you maintain optimal brain function. Lion’s Mane is known botanically as Hericium erinaceus, and it possesses well-known regenerative effects. There’s an active ingredient in Lion’s Mane mushroom promotes the growth of nerve cells in the brain. When you grow new nerve cells, it’s helpful right? Nootropes are the way of the world, and
even kids know about them because on the street, they are termed “smart pills.” Some college kids like nootropic supplements to help them get through finals and exams. Bacopa Monnieri There is a gorgeous white flower that is a nootropic herb. It helps you maintain optimal brain function due to its strong, protective effect on one particular memory-compound called acetylcholine. Bacopa blocks acetylcholinesterase (which breaks down acetylcholine), and remember now, that acetylcholine is a highly desired neurotransmitter! Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica) Gotu kola, commonly called pennywort, contains compounds that support neurotrophin secretion. Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor or BDNF is the most well-studied of the neurotrophins. It helps maintain brain integrity, and signals nerve cells to survive and differentiate. Gotu kola seems to help with mental fatigue. I have a longer version of this article (plus big news) so to read that, go to my site and sign up for my newsletter. If your practitioner approves of these gentle remedies, you could certainly try them independently, or you can find multi-tasking formulas that contain these as well as other key nutrients and amino acids. Just be careful because some nootropic supplements are dangerous, and in fact, some are not supposed to be on the market anymore. Buy from trusted brands and companies. It’s completely within your rights to ask for a company’s Certificate of Analysis for purity and heavy metal testing. If they don’t provide that document to you, run.

KNOW YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS! –Photo by Chris Lundy Thy Cavagnaro is working toward building a monument to Vietnam veterans at Gazebo Park. By Chris Lundy BARNEGAT – For many veterans, the war in Vietnam was so brutal they have difficulty even talking about it. Thy Cavagnaro doesn’t have many memories of it anymore. She just has stories her family told her. She was only 1 and a half years old. She was part of a family of five fleeing a warzone on a single motorcycle. She was the only one facing behind them. So she was the only one who watched as her house exploded. Her parents told her later that she was yelling “The fi re is chasing us! The fi re is chasing us!” Her family settled in New Jersey. For a year afterward, she experienced night terrors. Those horrible details she has forgotten, but she knows there are many out there who can’t forget. “Vietnam vets didn’t get the proper reception when they got home,” she said. She always wanted to give thanks, but didn’t know how. Because of the way they were treated upon their return, a lot of Vietnam veterans didn’t talk about their experiences. Only in the last five years or so, did she start seeing hats or stickers. “They had been living with that for decades,” she said. “If you were told what you did was not honorable, you wouldn’t share it except in certain company.” A few years back, she did meet a Vietnam vet, and was able to thank him. On a whim, she asked if she could give him a hug. “Something happened. I got emotional.” It kick started a need in her to do more. She started to ask parents of friends about what they would want to hear, as a way of thanks, and the consensus was “Welcome Home.” This was a statement they didn’t
get when they did return from deployment. So now she has a sign in her car that says “Welcome Home,” for whenever she sees a car with a Vietnam bumper sticker. But she wanted to do more. And the best way to do more is to act locally. So, she and her husband, James, are building a monument for Vietnam veterans at Gazebo Park. This has two headstones marking other veteran contributions. It’s at the corner of Route 9 and Bay Avenue. It would be a headstone-sized memorial, like the others. It would be facing the street so that drivers and pedestrians can see it. They worked to get consensus with veterans as to what they would want on the memorial, even down to the color of the stone. The plan is to have it fi nished for Veteran’s Day, November 11. “We wanted to make sure we won’t overshadow” the cur rent memorials, James said. “We didn’t want to ruffle any feathers.” Hopefully, their actions will set off a spark, Thy said. Maybe other people will start doing things for veterans. Maybe people will talk to their grandparents about what they went through. She doesn’t want the veterans and their accomplishments to be forgotten. The couple is funding the monument themselves. They didn’t want to ask for any contributions. If someone wants to donate to a good cause, they suggest starting with their local veterans organizations. For more information, visit facebook. com/thanking.vietnam.veterans.in.barnegat. Veterans who are not on Facebook are encouraged to reach out to the couple at jimmythy@comcast.net.

Identifying Nursing Home Abuse And Neglect
Robert C. Shea Esq.
By Robert C. Shea, Esq. & Michael J. Deem, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates
Nursing home abuse can take many forms. It can be intentional, visible, obvious or it can be more subtle – abuse through neglect and general lack of care on the part of nursing home staff. Abuse can be physical, emotional, financial or even sexual. Each of these takes a heavy toll on any person, but nursing home abuse and nursing home neglect can be especially hard on the elderly, some of the most vulnerable members of our society. Whatever form nursing home abuse takes, it is urgent that you and your loved one open a dialogue about this extraordinarily sensitive topic. Communication is necessary to end the abuse and let the healing begin. The fi rst step in opening a dialogue is identifying suspected abuse. There are many signs of nursing home abuse that you can look for. The first sign you may notice is a change in behavior. The emotional effects that often accompany abuse can manifest as sluggishness or depression, a lack of enthusiasm for things your loved one once enjoyed or even a loss of interest in visits. The change in attitude can be significant and sudden, or it may be subtle and prolonged. The most important thing is to be observant and notice if the change is taking place on any level. Of course, it is also possible that signs of abuse will be far more apparent. Physical signs of nursing home abuse or nursing home neglect can take the form of bruises, sores, cuts, scars or any similar injuries. These may be from simple
accidents, but if there is anything suspicious about the injury, the Michael J. Deem problem should be addressed immediately. Suspicious signs might include a reluctance to talk about how the injury occurred or claiming not to remember the cause. Even more obvious signs are bedsores which are a common sign of nursing home neglect. They are painful and, if infected, can be potentially lethal. 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. When abuse or neglect are identified or suspected, it is important to notify the authorities and contact a nursing home abuse lawyer to discuss your legal rights. Document any such evidence you observe, and bring it to the attention of the local authorities and 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. If you think a loved one is the victim of nursing home abuse or neglect, call the trial attorney’s at R.C. Shea & Associates for a free consultation to discuss their rights.

NEW JERSEY – According to the American Psychological Association approximately one quarter of Americans report extreme stress at holiday time. Here are some simple steps that people can take to help remain calm, re-focus and enjoy the essence of this time of year: Prioritize schedules to include some of the activities that persons enjoy the most whether that be baking cookies or reading a meditation book. Incorporate others into activities; this could include asking everyone to bring a dish instead of taking on the burden of cooking a whole dinner, or asking a friend to join in shopping. Take some time each day to be mindful of surroundings, such as a walk in the brisk air or enjoying nature. Persons should allow themselves to remain present in the moment and enjoy the here and now. Try not to think ahead or about any “to do lists.” Take a break by mak ing time for enjoyable activities unrelated to the holidays. People who feel overwhelmed should not hesitate to seek professional help. When does holiday hustle and bustle amount to too much stress? What can be done about it? Mental health conditions, such as depression and anxiety, are real, common and treatable. Recovery is possible. Not everyone thinks about their emotional well-being enough, especially during the busy holiday season.

Check It. Change It. Control It. Blood Pressure Management NEW JERSEY - In the United States, nearly 80 million adults have high blood pressure and 47 percent of those do not have it under control. High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a leading risk factor for heart disease and stroke-our nation’s No. 1 and No. 4 leading causes of death. Yet, high blood pressure (HBP) can often be controlled under the supervision of a doctor with lifestyle changes and if necessary, medication. The American Heart Association and American Stroke Association have launched the Check. Change. Control. program designed to close the gap in the treatment of high blood pressure. This free program empowers people to learn about, monitor and manage their blood pressure through a combination of resources. Although all groups are affected by high blood pressure, Africans Americans have an increased incidence of hypertension with over 40 percent of males and 47 percent of females suffering with HBP. Not only is HBP more severe in African Americans than Caucasians but it also develops earlier in life. “There are different theories on why African Americans have a higher incidence of high blood pressure,” states Dr. Marcus Williams, member of the American Heart Association Board of Directors of Northern
New Jersey and cardiologist with Cardiac Associates of North Jersey in Oakland. “There’s often a higher incidence of diabetes and obesity which can contribute to high blood pressure. Additionally, research suggests that there may be a gene that makes African Americans much more salt sensitive. This trait increases the risk of developing HBP. In people who have this gene, as little as half a teaspoon of salt could raise blood pressure as much as five points.” The American Stroke Association notes that a high sodium diet can directly lead to high blood pressure which can contribute to several severe health issues including stroke, heart failure, heart disease, osteoporosis, stomach cancer and kidney disease. The Association notes that 97 percent of children and adolescents consume more than the daily recommended amount of sodium which can lead to major health issues later in life. The Check. Change. Control. program is available to anyone interested in maintaining or controlling a healthy blood pressure level. Interested parties can visit www. heart.org/CheckChangeControl to learn more. For more information on stroke visit www.strokeassociation.org or call 1-888-4-STROKE.
Red Cross Issues Winter Weather Safety Tips NEW JERSEY – As winter approaches, the American Red Cross encourages people to ready themselves for the colder weather and winter storms. “The time to prepare for inclement weather is before it threatens our area,” said Ana Montero, regional CEO, American Red Cross New Jersey Region. “We encourage everyone in New Jersey to take steps to prepare for any winter weather that may come our way.” Get vehicles ready for winter: Have a mechanic check the tires, battery, brakes and antifreeze levels. Make sure vehicles are ready for winter with a window scraper, shovel, kitty litter or sand in case wheels get stuck, and a disaster supplies kit in the trunk. Suggested supplies include high-protein snacks, water, first aid kit, flashlight, phone charger, small battery-operated radio, an emergency contact card with names and phone numbers, blankets and extra clothes including socks, hats and gloves. Check emergency kits: Don’t wait for a winter storm. Now is a good time for people to check the contents of the emergency kit in their home should a storm require them to shelter in place. Restock missing items and replace items that may have expired. The emergency kit should include: a three-day supply of water per person, generally one gallon per person per day; a three-day supply of nonperishable food; flashlights; battery powered or hand-crank radio; extra batteries; first aid kit; seven-day supply of medicines; multipurpose tools; sanitation and personal hygiene items; copies of personal documents such as medication list and pertinent medical information, proof of
address, deed/lease to home, passports, birth certificates, insurance policies; cell phone with chargers; family and emergency contact information; extra cash; baby supplies such as bottles, formula, baby food, diapers; pet supplies such as collar, leash, ID, food, carrier, bowl; tools/supplies for securing the home; sand, rock salt or non-clumping kitty litter to make walkways and steps less slippery; and warm coats, gloves or mittens, hats, boots and extra blankets and warm clothing for all household members. Heat safety tips: The Red Cross urges everyone to follow these safety steps when using alternate heat sources. Maintain heating equipment and chimneys by having them cleaned and inspected every year. Space heaters should sit on a level, hard surface and anything flammable should be kept at least three feet away. If using a fireplace, use a glass or metal fire screen large enough to catch sparks and rolling logs. Do not use a stove or oven to heat the home. Turn off space heaters and make sure fireplace embers are out before leaving the room or going to bed. Weather alerts and first aid tips: People can download the free Red Cross Emergency App for instant access to winter storm tips and weather alerts for their area and where loved-ones live. Expert medical guidance and a hospital locator are included in the free First Aid App in case travelers encounter any mishaps. Both apps are available to download in app stores or at redcross.org/apps.

ASPCA Urges: Disaster Preparedness For Animals OCEAN COUNTY – Ocean County Community Organizations Active in Disaster shared information from the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals about preparedness for animals during emergencies. Emergencies come in many forms, and they may require anything from a brief absence from your home to permanent evacuation. Each type of disaster requires different measures to keep your pets safe, so the best thing you can do for yourself and your pets is to be prepared. Here are simple steps you can follow now to make sure you’re ready before the next disaster strikes: Step 1: Get a Rescue Alert Sticker This easy-to-use sticker will let people know that pets are inside your home. Make sure it is visible to rescue workers (we recommend placing it on or near your front door), and that it includes the types and number of pets in your home as well as the name and number of your veterinarian. If you must evacuate with your pets, and if time allows, write “evacuated” across the stickers. To get a free emergency pet alert sticker for your home, please fill out our online order form and allow 6-8 weeks for delivery. Your local pet supply store may also sell similar stickers. Step 2: Arrange a Safe Haven Arrange a safe haven for your pets in the event of evacuation. Do not leave your pets behind. Remember, if it isn’t safe for you, it isn’t safe for your pets. They may become trapped or escape and be exposed to numerous life-threatening hazards. Note that not all shelters accept pets, so it is imperative that you have determined where you will bring your pets ahead of time: Contact your veterinarian for a list of preferred boarding kennels and facilities. Ask your local animal shelter if they provide emergency shelter or foster care for pets. Identify hotels or motels outside of your immediate area that accept pets. Ask friends and relatives outside your immediate area if they would be willing to take in your pet. Step 3: Chose “Designated Caregivers” This step will take considerable time and thought. When choosing a temporary caregiver, consider someone who lives close to your residence. He or she should be someone who is generally home during the day while you are at work or has easy access to your home. A set of keys should be given to this trusted individual. This may work well with neighbors who have pets of their own—you may even swap responsibilities, depending upon who has accessibility. When selecting a permanent caregiver, you’ll need to consider other criteria. This is a person to whom you are entrusting the care of your pet in the event that something should happen to you. When selecting this “foster parent,” consider people who have met your pet and have successful cared for animals in the past. Be sure to discuss your expectations at length with a permanent
caregiver, so he or she understands the responsibility of caring for your pet. Step 4: Prepare Emergency Supplies and Traveling Kits If you must evacuate your home in a crisis, plan for the worst-case scenario. Even if you think you may be gone for only a day, assume that you may not be allowed to return for several weeks. When recommendations for evacuation have been announced, follow the instructions of local and state officials. To minimize evacuation time, take these simple steps: Make sure all pets wear collars and tags with up-to-date identification information. Your pet’s ID tag should contain his name, telephone number and any urgent medical needs. Be sure to also write your pet’s name, your name and contact information on your pet’s carrier. The ASPCA recommends microchipping your pet as a more permanent form of identification. A microchip is implanted under the skin in the animal’s shoulder area, and can be read by a scanner at most animal shelters. Always bring pets indoors at the first sign or warning of a storm or disaster. Pets can become disoriented and wander away from home in a crisis. Store an emergency kit and leashes as close to an exit as possible. Make sure that everyone in the family knows where it is, and that it clearly labeled and easy to carry. Items to consider keeping in or near your “Evac-Pack” include: Pet first-aid kit and guide book (ask your vet what to include). Seven days’ worth of canned (pop-top) or dry food (be sure to rotate every two months). Disposable litter trays (aluminum roasting pans are perfect). Litter or paper toweling. Liquid dish soap and disinfectant. Disposable garbage bags for clean-up. Pet feeding dishes and water bowls. Extra collar or harness as well as an extra leash. Photocopies and/or USB of medical records and a waterproof container with a two-week supply of any medicine your pet requires (Remember, food and medications need to be rotated out of your emergency kit—otherwise they may go bad or become useless). At least seven days’ worth of bottled water for each person and pet (store in a cool, dry place and replace every two months). A traveling bag, crate or sturdy carrier, ideally one for each pet. Flashlight. Blanket. Recent photos of your pets (in case you are separated and need to make “Lost” posters). Especially for cats: Pillowcase, toys, scoop-able litter. Especially for dogs: Extra leash, toys and chew toys, a week’s worth of cage liner. You should also have an emergency kit for the human members of the family. Items to include: Batteries, duct tape, flashlight, radio, multi-tool, tarp, rope, permanent marker, spray paint, baby wipes, protective clothing and footwear, extra cash, rescue whistle, important phone numbers, extra medication and copies of medical and insurance information.
Step 5: Keep the ASPCA On-Hand at All Times The free ASPCA mobile app shows pet parents exactly what to do in case of a natural disaster. It also allows pet owners to store vital medical records and provides information on making life-saving decisions during natural disasters. With a few swipes, you can: Access critical advice on what to do with your pet before, during, and after a major storm—even if there’s no data connectivity. Store and manage your pet’s critical health records. Receive a personalized missing pet recovery kit, including step-by-step instructions on how to search for a lost animal in a variety of circumstances. Build a lost pet digital flyer that can be shared instantly on your social media channels. Get the latest and most relevant news about pets and animal welfare. Other Considerations Geographic Considerations: If you live in an area that is prone to certain natural disasters, such as tornadoes, earthquakes or floods, you should plan accordingly. Determine well in advance which rooms offer safe havens. These rooms should be clear or hazards such as windows, flying debris, etc. Choose easy-to-clean areas such as utility rooms, bathrooms and basements as safe zones Access to a supply of fresh water is particularly important. In areas that may lose electricity, fill up bathtubs and sinks ahead of time to ensure that you have access to water during a power outage or other crises. In the event of flooding, go to the highest location in your home, or a room that has access to counters or high shelves where your animals can take shelter. Special Considerations for Horses Keep a clean and tidy stable and pasture. Remove hazardous and flammable materials, debris and machinery from around the barn’s walkways, entrances and exits. Regularly maintain and inspect barn floors and septic tanks. Inspect your grounds regularly and remove dangerous debris in the pasture. Prevent fires by instituting a no-smoking policy around your barn. Avoid using or leaving on appliances in the barn, even seemingly-harmless appliances like box fans, heaters and power tools can overheat. Exposed wiring can also lead to electrical fires in the barn, as can a simple nudge from an animal who accidentally knocks over a machine. Get your horse used to wearing a halter, and get him used to trailering. Periodically, you should practice quickly getting your horse on a trailer for the same reason that schools have fire drills—asking a group of unpracticed children to exit a burning building in a calm fashion is a little unrealistic, as is requesting a new and strange behavior of your horse. If you own a trailer, please inspect it regularly. Also, make sure your towing vehicle is appropriate for the size and weight of the trailer and horse. Always make sure
the trailer is hitched properly—the hitch locked on the ball, safety chains or cables attached, and emergency brake battery charged and linked to towing vehicle. Proper tire pressure (as shown on the tire wall) is also very important. Get your horse well-socialized and used to being handled by all kinds of strangers. If possible, invite emergency responders and/or members of your local fire service to interact with your horse. It will be mutually beneficial for them to become acquainted. Firemen’s turnout gear may smell like smoke and look unusual, which many horses find frightening—so ask them to wear their usual response gear to get your horse used to the look and smell. Set up a phone tree/buddy system with other nearby horse owners and local farms. This could prove invaluable should you—or they—need to evacuate animals or share resources like trailers, pastures or extra hands! Keep equine veterinary records in a safe place where they can quickly be reached. Be sure to post emergency phone numbers by the phone. Include your 24-hour veterinarian, emergency services and friends. You should also keep a copy for emergency services personnel in the barn that includes phone numbers for you, your emergency contact, your 24-hour veterinarian and several friends. Special Considerations for Birds Birds should be transported in a secure travel cage or carrier. If the carrier does not have a perch, line it for paper towels that you can change frequently. Keep the carrier in as quiet an area as possible. In cold weather, make certain you have a blanket over your pet’s cage. This may also help reduce the stress of traveling. In warm weather, carry a spray bottle to periodically moisten your bird’s feathers. Have recent photos available, and keep your bird’s leg bands on for identification. It is particularly imperative that birds eat on a daily basis, so purchase a timed feeder. If you need to leave your bird unexpectedly, the feeder will ensure his daily feeding schedule. Items to keep on hand: Catch net, heavy towel, blanket or sheet to cover cage, cage liner. Special Considerations for Reptiles A snake may be transported in a pillowcase, but you should have permanent and secure housing for him when you reach a safe place. Take a sturdy bowl that is large for your pet to soak in. It’s also a good idea to bring along a heating pad or other warming devise, such as a hot water bottle. Lizards can be transported like birds (see above). Special Considerations for Small Animals Small animals, such as hamsters, gerbils, mice and guinea pigs, should be transported in secure carriers with bedding materials, food and food bowls. Items to keep on hand: Salt lick, extra water bottle, small hidebox or tube, a week’s worth of bedding.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen Chill Out: Celebrate The Last Blast Of Summer Eating Homemade Ice Cream By Wolfgang Puck Even though autumn is three weeks away, most Americans think of Labor Day weekend as the end of summer. Family vacations are over, children are starting school, and grills are being readied for one more grand meal cooked outdoors. There’s just one problem. Summer doesn’t seem ready to go. In many parts of the country, we’re only now entering the hottest time of year, regardless of what the calendar says or how much earlier the sun sets. So, I’d like to offer you some tips for your Labor Day cookout. 1. Keep the food simple. Choose items that grill quickly, whether it’s sliced summer vegetables or relatively thin fillets of seafood, poultry or meat. Now is not the time to stand over a hot covered grill as you slow-cook and regularly baste a boneless pork shoulder. 2. Keep accompaniments equally simple - and cool. Classic coleslaw or a salad of sliced sun-ripened tomatoes with basil, for example, will help you feel refreshed throughout your meal. 3. Finally, finish with homemade ice cream. No dessert expresses summer’s pleasures more effectively. Making ice cream is surprisingly easy. What takes the most time is preparing your ice cream mixture (basically a flavored, pourable custard), and that doesn’t take much more than a half hour of kitchen time. Then comes what used to be the most challenging part of the process: hand-turning an old-fashioned ice cream freezer. Today, however, you can fi nd a good variety of reasonably priced electric machines that will do that work for you. If you love good ice cream but don’t have one of these appliances, I highly recommend that you get one. You may even find them on sale, now that summer is almost over. What kind of ice cream should you make? Of course, the instruction booklet that comes with your machine will offer good basic recipes. But I suggest that you start getting more creative as soon as you feel comfortable. To inspire you, let me offer of my own favorite recipes for a uniquely American flavor that symbolically toasts our nation’s workers on Labor Day: Jack Daniel’s chocolate chocolate chip. The smooth, mellow taste of Tennessee whiskey as exemplified by its most familiar brand, Jack Daniel’s, perfectly complements custardy homemade ice cream flavored and flecked with bittersweet chocolate. Considering the recent boom in artisanal spirits, I’m sure you’ll easily find other good options; or substitute your favorite Kentucky bourbon. (Feel free to make a “virgin” batch, if children will be joining the party. The results will still taste delicious.) Note that it takes very little liquor to flavor
the ice cream: a 1/2-cup (125-mL) serving includes just 3/4 teaspoon. Still, I suggest that you eat (and drink) responsibly on this unofficial last weekend of summer! JAC K DA N I E L’ S C H O C O L AT E CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM Makes 2 quarts (2 L) 1 vanilla bean, carefully split lengthwise with a small, sharp knife 2 cups (500 mL) milk 2 cups (500 mL) heavy cream 8 large cage-free egg yolks 3/4 cup (185 mL) sugar 1 cup (250 mL) bittersweet chocolate, cut into small pieces 1/4 cup (60 mL) Jack Daniel’s, or other Tennessee whiskey, or Kentucky bourbon, plus more as needed 1/2 cup (125 mL) melted bittersweet chocolate Put the vanilla bean in a large saucepan. Add the milk and cream. Place the pan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Remove the pan from the heat. In a heatproof mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until foamy. While whisking constantly, pour half of the hot milk mixture into the sugar-yolk mixture. Pour this mixture back into the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon; take care not to let the mixture come to a boil, which will curdle this custard and make it unusable. Pour the thickened custard through a finemeshed strainer into a large cold bowl. Immediately add the 1 cup (250 mL) of chocolate pieces to the hot custard and stir until they melt and the mixture is smooth. Cover the bowl and refrigerate until the mixture is chilled. Stir the Jack Daniel’s into the chilled mixture, adding a little more to taste if you like. Transfer the mixture to an ice-cream freezer and freeze following the manufacturer’s instructions. While the ice cream is freezing, prepare the chocolate chips. Preheat the oven to 350 F (175 C). Heat a heavy baking sheet in the preheated oven. Spread the melted chocolate over the bottom of the baking sheet in a thin, even layer. Let cool until the baking sheet is cool to the touch, then transfer to the refrigerator and chill until the chocolate is hard. With a sharp knife, score the chocolate into small 1/4-inch (6-mm) squares. Using a metal pastry scraper or a palette knife, scrape these chips from the baking sheet. Freeze until needed. When the ice cream is ready, transfer it to a cold freezer-proof bowl. With a spatula or large, wide spoon, fold in the chocolate chips. Store in the freezer until ready to serve.
