By William Clanton Throughout the recent months and now into the early spring, the skies over Ocean County have been lined with grey ominous smoke. The smell of burnt wood and ash could be smelled for miles. While this may concern many local residents, this is a very common procedure carried out by the New Jersey Forest Fire Service. They are performing what is commonly referred to as prescribed, controlled or planned burning. It is a process in which the fire commission apply fire to a predetermined area, under specific environmental conditions. This is done in part to help prevent the formation of a wildfire through controlled conditions, by (Burn - See Page 2)

Council Members Each Get Lawyer In Lawsuit By Kimberly Bosco HOWELL – Members of the Howell Township Council passed resolutions at the March 6 meeting to appoint counsel for each individual member of the town council as part of an ongoing lawsuit between Howell Township and Congregation Kollel. According to Township Attorney Joseph Clark, Congregation Kollel, an Orthodox Jewish community, filed a lawsuit against the township and zoning board on the grounds that the council was burdening their rights to free exercise of religion. The issue stems from Congregation Kollel’s application to build a school and dormitory at 344 Old Ford Road, first proposed back in 2015. The plan for the project was to build a school building along with a dorm building, made up of seven, two-story buildings, (Lawsuit - See Page 4)
Schools Work To Keep Kids Safe During Planned Walkouts By Chris Lundy JERSEY SHORE - It is said that everyone grieves differently. And everyone processes tragedy differently, too. Across the country, students organized to walk out on the one month anniversary of the shooting that claimed 17 students and staff at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. Locally, each school had a different approach to the walkouts. With several people arrested recently for posting threats on social media - even if they weren’t credible threats - school officials spoke about providing ways for students to express themselves without being left vulnerable to the same kind of attack that they were
gathering in remembrance of. Michael Dillon, the director of guidance and operations for the Freehold Regional School District, said that they didn’t want students to walk out of class but respected their freedom of expression. It was a security concern, so additional police were on hand. “It’s harder to protect students on a football field rather than inside a brick building,” he said. Still, students weren’t going to be penalized as long as they participated in an event instead of just leaving campus. Instead, students were urged to make their voices heard in ways that won’t affect class, such as writing to lawmakers or contacting survivors of the Parkland attacks. Some are going
to visit a local congressman. At Central Regional in Berkeley, the middle school and high school each had events, Superintendent Triantafillos Parlapanides said. He joined the middle school walkout, with about 120 students. “We kept them in a safe area for the 17 minutes. A student read the bio of the 17 people killed,” he said. At the high school, there were about 100 students, he said. Additional officers were sent in to cover security, and he thanked Chief Karin DiMichele and Mayor Carmen Amato for their support. “Chief DiMichele did an amazing job and is a tremendous asset to the school and community,” he said. Jackson schools held a moment of
silence. The students also had options of going outside or staying in, said spokesperson Allison Erwin. At the high schools, there were places set aside outside that was away from public view for safety reasons. At the middle schools, the library was the dedicated spot, but some just sat quietly by their lockers. The students’ remembrances mostly took the form of silent reflection, but there were a few high schoolers who wanted to say a few words, she said. Brick Township schools sent out a joint letter from the principals of the high schools stating that, due to safety reasons, the district and the police department decided not to participate in walkouts.

Burn:
Continued From Page 1 burning off underbrush. Underbrush are the small shrubs and trees, along with grass and leaves, that form within the undergrowth in a forest. These act as the kindling and “fuel” of the fire. Limiting this “fuel” greatly limits the chance of wildfire spreading. This also greatly reduces the intensity of possible fires and allows for effective fire suppression and protection. Prescribed burns are used commonly on public lands in order to improve forest health, and reduce larger wildfires, according to the Forest Fire Service. These burns are both effective economically as well as safety wise for local residents. They also allow for forest disease and pest control as well as an overall improvement of land. These burns are carried out all throughout the state and country. Most recently, Cloverdale in Barnegat, Wells Mills in Waretown and sections of Manchester have had these burns carried out. These burns will continue to take place through the end of March. The New Jersey Forest Fire Service (NJFFS) is a division of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection within the New Jersey Division of Parks and Forestry. The Service is under the direction of the state fire warden and by their staffed headquarters in Trenton. It was originally founded in 1906 with their primary focus being on wildland fi re suppression and protection in New Jersey. The Forest Fire Service is currently one
of the largest fi refighting departments in the state of New Jersey, covering well over 3.15 million acres of both private and public land statewide. The service is staff by 85 full-time employees and a very large part-time force, providing both protection and wildfi re management. “Since 1906, the Forest Fire Service has protected property, lives and infrastructure by creating defensible space and strategic fi re breaks near developed areas,” said Greg McLaughlin, Acting Chief of the New Jersey Forest Fire Service. The prescribed burns are performed in order to help prevent the start and spreading of wildfi re. They most commonly take place between the months of October and March. These burns make it much easier for later prevention and fi re suppression, as they greatly reduce the risk well before the prime of the wildfi re season. The season typically begins in the early spring when the fallen leaves, branches and twigs are in abundance. Springtime in our area is commonly dry, windy and warm. With limited new foliage growth and an abundance of dry underbrush and viable fuel, forest fi res around this time tend to form and spread much faster. The Pine Barrens and Pinelands region of southern New Jersey is probably one of the most susceptible regions to forest fi res due to its regional fi re dependent ecosystem. The region is dependent on these wildfi res for the releasing of seeds for reproduction. Controlling the buildup of fuel in the region is beneficial to the
forests health. Each year the Forest Fire Service responds to well over 1,000 wildfi res all throughout New Jersey. A good amount of these fi res threaten local home, business and wildlife all throughout the Pine Barrens, coastal marshes and New Jersey mountains. These fi res involve hundreds of fi refighters, both staffed and volunteer as well as many pieces of equipment. The Forest Fire Service has the state of New Jersey split up in three main divisions. These divisions focus primarily on portions on north, central and south New Jersey. They are labeled as divisions A, B and C. (Ocean County falls under the central New Jersey division, or B division.) These larger divisions are then broken down into smaller more localized divisions. A district forest fi re warden is then placed in charge of one of the divisions and is responsible for recruiting and training fi re crews and the issuing of burning permits. There are 269 district forest fi re wardens statewide with more than 2,000 trained crewmen under them working on an hourly basis. In 2016, the Forest Fire Service responded to 1,065 wildfi res, 75 percent of which were a quarter-acre or smaller. The largest was a 464-acre fi re in Bass River State Forest in Burlington County. In 2017, the Forest Fire Service responded to 753 wildfi res, 74 percent of which were a quarter acre or smaller. The largest was a 3,477-acre fi re in Wharton State Forest, Burlington County.
As for 2018, the Forest Fire Service plans to have prescribed burns on approximately 30,000 acres of state-owned property and land. The includes state forests, parks and wildlife management areas, as well as other government lands. They are also planning on providing general assistance to private landowners and nonprofit organizations to help mitigate the wildfire risk. Barnegat township was the fi rst township in New Jersey to have a Forest Fire Council as a town municipality. Woodland, Waterford and Manchester are also jumped on board, following the footsteps set out by Barnegat. Bill Brash, the man responsible for birthing this program in New Jersey, came up with the idea for such a council through the inspiration by a very similar concept adopted by the state of California. The Barnegat council adopted a lot of the same ideals and inter-workings similar to the program in California. The general premise behind it is to keep residents well informed and safe during a wildfi re. The New Jersey Fire Safe Council helps with aid and the bringing in of grant funding as well as outreach and mitigation alongside the Forest Fire Service.

Lawsuit:
Continued From Page 1 for Orthodox students, according to the lawsuit. After the application was rejected, Congregation Kollel filed a lawsuit against the town, believing the decision to be motivated by discrimination against the Orthodox community. “In connection with the lawsuit previously filed by Congregation Kollel, the Department of Justice initiated an investigation last year into whether any actions by the Township burdened Congregation Kollel’s rights to the free exercise of religion,” said Clark. “As part of that investigation, the DOJ has asked for emails from the private accounts of current governing body members and a former mayor.” Clark said that the council’s emails will be searched for keywords and reviewed for relevance. Each of the current governing body members – Mayor Theresa Berger, Deputy Mayor Robert Nicastro, Councilman Robert Walsh, and Councilwoman Evelyn O’Donnell – as well as former Mayor William Gotto, requested individual counsel to monitor the email searches. “As current and former elected officials, State statutes entitle them to have individual counsel at this time,” he said. At the meeting on March 6, the resolutions appointing counsel were approved; however the individual counsel will be subject to a cap of $150 per hour for a total of $2,500 per council person. Clark noted that the township intends to seek reimbursement from its insurer for the cost of the additional counsel. “In terms of reimbursement, we will submit the bills for individual counsel to our insurer for their review,” he said.

Walkouts:
Continued From Page 1 Instead, a moment of silence was scheduled. The district also scheduled a Town Hall-styled meeting where students will be able to make comments, and ask questions of school and municipal officials. This will be filmed and broadcast online. “Our role as educators is to teach our students how to actively engage in civic conversations and the importance of participating respectfully and responsibly in a call to action to voice their concern,” the letter stated. John Fiorentino, principal at Russell O. Brackman Middle School in Barnegat, wrote a letter to parents addressing the safety of students during the highly publicized na-
The Howell Times, March 24, 2018, Page 5 tional walkouts. “Barnegat administration values student voice and civic engagement, therefore, this is something we need to let them participate in without consequence,” he wrote. Any event outside the building would be considered unsafe and would not be permitted, he said. Instead, a moment of silence and a reading of the names was going to be had. Students were also encouraged to perform 17 random acts of kindness. “Wednesday is a day to “Walk Up – Not Out,” he wrote. “We are encouraging students to walk up; walk up to the kid who sits alone at lunch and invite him to your group; walk up to the kid who sits quietly in the corner of the room and sit next to her, smile and say “Hi;” walk up to someone who has different views than you and get to
know them.” Students were encouraged to share their #WalkUpNotOut moments on Twitter, and told that they would be supported as long as they didn’t advocate a political position of any kind. Toms River Regional Schools also grappled with how to handle walkouts in a situation that could potentially put children in harm’s way. They published a press release detailing security guidelines set out by the State Commissioner of Education and the New Jersey School Boards Association. “Conversations between high school staff and students have included making sure any event would not be disruptive or violate district policies. Schools will follow established protocols regarding student attendance and behavior, and students will neither be
required to nor denied the opportunity to peacefully participate in any activity established for that period,” the release stated. “Many teachers see this as an opportunity for learning and to promote student voice, an essential part of the school curriculum. School counselors have been especially mindful of student concerns and are “first responders” when it comes to mental health.” A prayer service was held at Donovan Catholic High School in Toms River. It included a student-led prayer, a skit of a father and daughter reunited after the shootings, and an original song. It also included a call to action for gun control legislation and mental health reform, and a reaffirmation in the power of prayer. The names of the 17 lives lost were read, and a candle was lit for each.
County Adopts $448 Million Budget For 2018 FREEHOLD – The Monmouth County Board of Chosen Freeholders has adopted the County’s $448 million budget for 2018. An official public hearing was held on March 8 and the budget was subsequently adopted at the March 19 Board meeting. “The Board has worked diligently to provide a fiscally responsible budget for our residents and businesses that allow us to continue to offer the highest level of services and facilities, while meeting all statutory requirements. We are currently using the same amount of fund balance as the revenue that we regenerated during the year. This should put us in a position of future financial stability with all bond rating agencies,” said Freeholder Director Thomas A. Arnone. The 2018 spending plan of $447,950,000 includes $304,000,000 in taxes and incorporates a reduction in County department budgets of over $600,000. The annual budget covers the cost of maintaining 1,000 lane miles of roads, more than 900 bridges, 16,000 acres of County parks, emergency management services, 911 emergency communications, law en-

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY Letters To The Editor
F EATURED L ETTER Earbuds, Blasting Music Actually Blasts Your Ears In March, we observe World Hearing Day, recognizing that 1 in 5 Americans have some sort of hearing loss. It is certainly alarming, as we watch the next generation of Americans pump up the music on the latest set of wireless ear buds. As audiologists, this is deeply concerning because music companies encourage children and teens to “experience the music” at loud volumes. I, too, am guilty of blasting music and attending a concert or two that left my ears ringing for days. But as a member of the New Jersey Speech-Language-Hearing Association, I feel compelled to note that once someone loses their hearing, he or she can’t get it back. Just look at all the rock stars who are now suffering
from permanent hearing loss, from Pete Townsend, to Eric Clapton, to Paul Stanley to Brian Wilson. Many of these musicians are now learning to lip read after suffering from hearing loss and tinnitus. Tinnitus occurs when the ear perceives sound, often in the form of ringing, even when no sound is present. When a child or teen blasts music through ear buds, it goes straight into their ears. The levels of the music they experience can be as damaging as attending concerts and can result in hearing loss and ringing in the ears. We must educate parents, teachers and children about how these earbuds can contribute to permanent hearing loss. Bob DiSogra NJSHA Member Brick

You Fell? Please Call 9-1-1 One of the most common calls we get is for a “Fall” or a “Lift Assist.” We take these calls seriously. Whether you are hurt or just need help to get up, there is no need to apologize. Please don’t hesitate to call 9-1-1. Don’t wait for hours trying to get yourself or your partner up. This happens. We understand. We are all in or near the same boat. One day, after being on the floor, helping a patient, one of our members looked at me and said, “I need a lift assist.” I was sorry when she said she just couldn’t do this anymore but we are all going to get there. The point is – don’t feel bad about calling us. There are s ome w ays to decrease falls. If you have walker or cane, use it. You have some of those beautiful small decorative rugs? Get rid of them. For us, they make better wall hangings. Sturdy slippers with backs may not win you the glamour queen/ king award but they may keep you from falling. And, replace them if they are old. Socks are cozy and warm but they are slippery on wood and tile floors. As we get older we tend to “shuffle.” Pick up your feet especially on your carpeting. Not only won’t you trip on the carpet’s pile but you will increase the muscle tone of your thighs from the exercise. If you have weakness in your thighs, try walking like Groucho Marx. No? Really! Hold on when you first start doing it. If you don’t fall down laughing at yourself, it increases muscle and balance. If you peep in my window, you can see me walking like that around my house. I learned about this in physical therapy. The doctor told me I didn’t need a knee replacement. I needed to restore the muscles above my knees. What a relief! If you have fallen because you didn’t listen to me and still have those scatter rugs, or slipped on a wet floor, call us. If are not hurt, we’ll help you up and we won’t breathe a word
Letters Editoris a strong supporter of small to your neighbors. IfTo you The Take Russia hit your head we will help you up and suggest you let us take you to the hospital. You never know if a bump on the head is serious, especially if you take blood thinners and some other types of medications. If you have cuts and abrasions, we will bandage you. If you fell because you were dizzy or passed out, the reason for the fall could be more serious than the fall. We’ll ask you a bunch of questions to get an idea of what that might be and we will suggest you let us bring you to the hospital. If you fall frequently because of weakness in your muscles or joints, you may want to consider having someone to help you on a regular basis, like a home health aide. You can find an aide to come around regularly or a live in if that is necessary. It would be up to you. If you live lone, you might want to consider an alert button to wear around your neck or carry your cell phone everywhere. If you have a garage door code (don’t lock the door to the garage) or a front door code (don’t lock the screen door), you can give it to the police. The police and the EMS ambulance will receive it when called to your house. It prevents us from having to break-in, in order to help you. We are the busiest squad in Ocean County, answering as many as 10-14 calls a day, sometimes more. We need more volunteers. There is no free EMS without volunteers. We really do appreciate your financial contributions each year, but if you want to keep us going, consider joining our EMS squad. No experience necessary! You’ll be CPR certified, and get regular training, a uniform and some experience. HCBEMS needs you! Don’t forget to recycle newspapers and magazines, phone books and aluminum cans at the recycling center behind HCBEMS building. Stay well and on your feet! Phyllis Brown Holiday City at Berkeley EMS
Seriously Or Lose Votes So, the House Intelligence Committee just dishonestly shut down the committee’s Russia investigation. Should I be surprised? Secretary of State Rex Tillerson was fired, right after speaking out about Russia. Should I be surprised? Help me understand how these actions are not partisan games. Help me form a conclusion that “party ahead of country” is NOT what members of the House are running on the citizens. It seems that those not running for re-election are speaking the truth, like Rep. Tom Rooney on the House Intelligence Committee. I agree with him on his declaration that the committee has “lost all credibility” on this Russia investigation. It shouldn’t take a retirement to show political courage—it should be the job of every elected official, of both parties. I demand that my elected officials take the Russia investigation seriously and act in our country’s best interest. Personally, I wish I could vote tomorrow. But I will be voting some people out this election cycle. Sean Ryan Toms River
New Budget Act Gives More Than “Crumbs” The word “crumb” is synonymous with minuscule and insignificant. Crumbs are the microscopic food particles that the servers in my restaurant wipe off each table, before seating a new group of customers. They are not meaningful or important, and the staff at my Seaside Park restaurant, The 3 C’s Luncheonette, do not mind crumbs as they are swept from the floor and thrown away. You can imagine my surprise when I heard Nancy Pelosi refer to thousand dollar bonuses and increased wages for workers as “crumbs.” As I talk with staff and patrons, many have expressed optimism about the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which Congressman Tom MacArthur (R-3rd) was a leader in fighting for. Thanks to this new tax cut, I can give my employees a raise and will be able to invest more in new equipment for the restaurant. Congressman Tom MacArthur
businesses and has visited us here plenty of times. I don’t know how Nancy Pelosi and supporters of hers, like Andy Kim, could be so out of touch with the American people, that they would call these tax cuts “crumbs.” The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act means real savings for my small business and more money in the pockets of my employees. If this is what qualifies as “crumbs” to Nancy Pelosi, and Andy Kim, then I suggest that they introduce themselves to the real working middle class of America, who were just delivered real tax relief thanks to Congressman MacArthur.

Vegetarianism Trending Worldwide With three crippling nor’easters battering our East coast in quick succession, we all look forward to March 20th, first day of spring, balmy weather, and flowers in bloom. It’s also a superb occasion to replace animal foods on our menu with healthy, delicious, eco-friendly vegetables, legumes, grains, and fruits. The shift toward healthy eating is everywhere. Fast-food chains like Chipotle, Quiznos, Starbucks, Subway, Taco Bell, and Wendy’s all offer plant-based options. Major publications and popular websites tout vegan recipes. Google CEO Eric Schmidt views replacement of meat by plant protein as the world’s #1 technical trend. The financial investment community is betting on innovative start-ups, like Beyond Meat, or Impossible Foods. Even Tyson Foods new CEO sees plant protein as meat industry’s future. Global Meat News reports that nearly half of consumers are reducing meat intake. Indeed, per capita red meat consumption has dropped by a whopping 25% in the past 40 years. Every one of us can celebrate spring by checking out the rich collection of plant-based dinners and desserts in our supermarket’s frozen food, dairy, and produce sections. An internet search on vegan foods brings rich rewards. Henry Traconi Toms River

Thomson Criticizes Murphy Accounting Change To Lower Scheduled Pension Payments
WALL – Assemblyman Edward Thomson (R-30 th) criticized acting-Treasurer Elizabeth Muoio’s decision to use a 7.5 percent assumed rate for New Jersey’s pension systems, rather than 7 percent. The accounting change is expected to lower
the state’s pension payments by more than $235 million for the upcoming fiscal year. “It’s incredibly hypocritical for the Murphy Administration to say it will fully fund the pension system and then lower the
bar with rosy predictions on its health,” said Thomson (R-Monmouth). “The Murphy administration is already breaking its promises to the state’s pension holders.” On the campaign trail, Murphy promised to in-
crease pension payments well above those made by Gov. Chris Christie, and criticized a slower, more modest ramp up to the full payment recommended by actuaries. “The new rate of return is higher than most other
pension systems and is completely baseless,” concluded Thomson. “The goal is to fully fund the pension system as quickly as possible, not kick the can farther down the road.” Assuming the investments will earn a high rate
House Passes School Safety Bill From The Desk Of
Congressman
Chris Smith The House voted overwhelmingly to pass an important bill to help prevent school violence, in the wake of the deadly shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, FL. Rep. Chris Smith (R-4th) co-sponsored the legislation.
“In any discussion on education policy and gun laws, there should be no higher priority right now than school safety,” Rep. Smith stated. “This bill provides critical funding of evidence-based prevention strategies, to ensure our students receive the best protec-
tion possible.” Rep. Smith, who discussed school safety with high school students from Tinton Falls and Middletown recently, co-sponsored the STOP School Violence Act, HR-4909, which would reauthorize and improve the existing Secure Our Schools program, through the Department of Justice’s Bureau of JusticeAssistance and which was created after the school shootings in Columbine, CO and Newtown, CT. The Secure Our Schools program provides funding to state, local and tribal governments for school
safety strategies that are tailored to specific schools and districts. The bill would authorize $75 million per year for schools to implement prevention measures to protect students from acts of violence in the future. These measures would include funding for metal detectors and other security equipment, training for security personnel, cooperation between schools and local law enforcement, and training for teachers to recognize potential threats to students and to intervene before threats become active. The legislation would also help
schools create an anonymous reporting system for students to send tips about possible threats to local law enforcement. “This grant program is an important part of what should be a comprehensive response to violence in our schools,” Smith said. “We must do all we can to protect tomorrow’s leaders today, and ensure they have the best environment possible to focus on their studies.” “When our children are organizing walkouts or demonstrations to show that they do not feel safe at school, we know that something
makes the pension fund look healthier than it really is and doesn’t reflect the reality of the state’s investment outcomes. The higher the actual rate of return is over the assumed rate, the better funded the pension system will be.
is terribly wrong and needs to be remedied immediately.” Smith is also a cosponsor of HR-4240, which would close the gun show loophole, provide consistent background checks and ensure that all who should be prohibited from gun purchases would be listed in the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS). He recently met with students from Middletown South High School and Monmouth Regional High School in Tinton Falls, where they discussed gun laws and school safety.

Bartley Resident Celebrates 107th Birthday
By Kimberly Bosco JACKSON – Mary Damiani, a 12year resident of Bartley Healthcare in Jackson, NJ has just celebrated her 107th birthday. On March 11, 2018, Damiani enjoyed her special day with Bartley and Holisticare Hospice at a wonderful birthday celebration just for her. Born in 1911, Damiani grew up in Passaic, NJ with 8 siblings. Her youngest brother is now 93 years old! She worked her entire life, retiring at 70 years old, starting as a seamstress at the young age of 14. As fate would have it, the co-owners of Bartley Healthcare took over the business that Mary worked for after 45 years. Damiani loves to dance, taking trips, visiting Atlantic City, and the Yankees. She recalls visiting Hawaii and walking on real-life volcanoes as one of her favorite memories. Now, at the impressive age of 107, she has two grandsons and two great grandsons. Her only child, daughter Maryann, visits her everyday where she resides at Bartley and even took part in her birthday bash there. For 32 years, Bartley Healthcare has pro-
vided quality individual focused memory care, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and assisted living services for residents on its 25-acre campus in Jackson, NJ. For more information, visit bartleyhealthcare.com or call 732-370-4700.

Understanding Myofascial Pain
W
By: Stefanie Armstrong, DPT, In-Home Physical Therapist
ithin our bodies is a continuous layer of connective tissue called fascia. Fascia is a three dimensional web of tissue found throughout our body that plays a major role in the following:
local or referred pain, reduced flexibility, tenderness to touch, popping and clicking, limited movement, and muscle weakness without atrophy.
1. Helps maintain structural integrity
The answer to the question above is simply no. If you suffer from myofascial pain, there are noninvasive treatment options available to you, including injections directly into the trigger point, NSAIDs to assist in managing your pain levels, massage therapy to reduce spasms and improve tissue extensibility within the muscles and physical therapy to prescribe an appropriate exercise program. Since myofascial pain has been linked to many types of pain, from stiffness or a deep, aching pain in the muscle to headaches, jaw pain, neck pain, low back pain, pelvic pain, and arm and leg pain, it is imperative that you work closely with your physician to rule out any other possible causes of pain.
2. Supports and protects the surrounding structures 3. Acts as a shock absorber 4. Transmits movement from muscles to bones There are three layers of fascia: superficial fascia, deep fascia and visceral fascia; all of which have different functions and roles within our body. The superficial fascia is found just underneath the skin and is responsible for storing fat and water, acting as a passageway for lymph, nerve and blood vessels. The deeper layer of fascia is the tougher fibrous tissue that is responsible for covering and permeating the muscles, bones, nerves and blood vessels. The fascia itself doesn’t have blood vessels; however, it has receptors that detect the presence of pain in the body. The deepest layer is considered the visceral fascia which is responsible for holding organs in their cavities. With overuse or injury, this connective tissue may tighten and contract creating undue pressure on muscles, nerves, bones or organs. This area of injury is often referred to as a trigger point. Myofascial pain syndrome is defined as a localized painful musculoskeletal condition affecting any skeletal muscle in the body, characterized by trigger points. Trigger points by definition are simply a taut band of skeletal muscle that is often felt as a “knot” within the muscle. These taut bands tend to be very sensitive to even light pressure, creating pain not only at the injury site, but also in various other areas of the body (referred pain). It is even common for an individual to experience symptoms that appear totally unrelated to the original injury. Individuals who suffer from myofascial pain may experience poor sleep habits,
DO YOU NEED TO HAVE SURGERY TO TREAT MYOFASCIAL PAIN?
HOW CAN PHYSICAL THERAPY HELP? Physical therapists are trained specialists that work with individuals to recognize the source of pain, identify trigger points and address any contributing factors to myofascial pain such as poor postural awareness, workplace ergonomic and biomechanical imbalances. Physical therapists can utilize a number of different techniques including soft tissue mobilization to improve tissue extensibility, strengthening through therapeutic exercises to restore muscle function, stretching exercises to improve postural awareness, modalities such as ultrasound and electrical stimulation to reduce pain as well as utilize techniques such as myofascial release. WHAT IS MYOFASCIAL RELEASE? Myofascial Release is a technique, utilized by physical and massage therapists, to address connective tissue restrictions within the body created by trauma, poor posture or inflammation. It is a hands-on approach that utilizes gentle, sustained pressure to the restricted area for
a minimum of 2 minutes, which allows the affected tissue to undergo histological length changes. After a series of length-tension changes occur, the affected tissue will become soft and pliable, resulting in restoration in biomechanical alignments, pain reduction and improved mobility. At All-Care physical therapy, we are trained to identify fascial/soft tissue restrictions that may be impeding quality of movement and limiting quality of life. Please feel free to contact one of our offices regarding any questions.

H ERE ’ S T O Y OUR H EALTH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
Make Herbal Teas For Your Troubles
By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
We’re doing something wrong because, as a nation, we spend twice what other comparable countries spend on health care, but we have the lowest life expectancy. Worse, we have the highest infant mortality rates. Our medical system is expensive, slow, inefficient and at times miserably incompetent. It’s not me saying this, I’m just passing along news from a JAMA study that was just released. Today I’d like to get back to nature. I’m going to share the best teas for various health concerns. Teas are gentle but they contain powerful natural compounds that man has relied on for eons. If you have a medical condition, please make sure your practitioner or local herbalist or acupuncturist weighs in for you. The teas I mention below are sold as commercially prepared teabags or you can learn to make them yourself. If you want help with cancer and immunity. - Many good animal studies prove that EGCG in green tea can slow down the growth of many cancers, including pancreatic cancer. Angiogenesis slows. If you have chronic infections or cancer, talk to your oncologist about taking this because timing is important if you’re on chemo. If you want help remembering. - Gotu kola is for your brain baby! It boosts memory and helps with age-related cognitive decline. I have my own refreshing recipe for Mint Hibiscus Memory Tea. If you’d like to watch my video, I’ll make this ex-
act tea for you. Watch at suzycohen.com/ hibiscus-tea If you want to sleep. - Lavender tea is the best option. It works like prescribed tranquilizers, meaning it activates your natural sleep hormone called GABA. Rose petals can do the same thing! I crawled out of bed one night in my jammies to make Lavender Rose Sleep Tea. Watch my video: suzycohen.com/lavender-rose-tea If you have diabetes or want to lower blood pressure. - Rooibos tea is excellent at cleaning capillaries and there are many of these tiny capillaries that lead to your retina. I think it’s great for both blood pressure and vision. Rooibos, has no caffeine. It contains chrysoeriol which helps reduce blood pressure. You might also consider goldenseal or dandelion, two of Mother Nature’s best diuretics. If you want to relieve nausea. - Ginger tea is easy to make, and it does not have caffeine. It contains numerous biologically active compounds including gingerols which act like medicine in the body. You can grate fresh ginger into some water and simmer it for a few minutes. It’s also a potent anti-inflammatory for joint health. Allergies and Sinus Problems - The herb stinging nettles is a very common natural way to deal with allergies. It’s a natural antihistamine and anti-inflammatory herb. It helps with hay fever according to some well-designed trials. You should ask your practitioner about this if you’re interested. It’s a natural diuretic by the way so be careful if you take HCTZ or furosemide.

Inside The Law Helpful Tips To Ensure Your Mortgage Application Is Approved
Robert C. Shea Esq.
By Robert C. Shea Esq., of R.C. Shea and Associates A necessary but intensive task during your journey to purchase your new home will be providing your mortgage representative with all of the fi nancial records and additional information they may require during the home buying process. Equally, during a re-fi nance of your existing home many of the same fi nancial records will be required. In either case, the process is started with an application and then moves through the underwriting process until the loan is clear to close. This time period may span from 30 days to several months, depending on the complexity of the loan program. There are several tips to remember which will help achieve a smooth closing. First, as an applicant, you never want to open new credit cards, switch credit card balances to new credit cards or make large purchases on existing credit cards. Even the smallest of purchases on a new card may lead to a much larger available line of credit. This is important to remember when you are paying for movers or looking to purchase new appliances and/or furniture for your new home. All of these actions can disrupt your income to debt ratio which can be a major obstacle in getting to that clear to close position. Make sure prior to utilizing any credit that it is discussed with your Attorney and mortgage representative to avoid delays in obtaining clearance to close your loan. Second, in a situation where you are either re-financing your existing home or purchasing a home that requires repairs prior to closing, make sure all home improvements/repairs are completed prior
to the home appraisal. Nearly all loans require an appraisal. Therefore, in order to avoid any delays with your closing, make sure you properly plan the timing of your appraisal. Timing of the appraisal should be discussed with your Attorney and mortgage representative to ensure that there are no on-going improvements within the property that would require a re-appraisal, which will delay the process and cost an additional fee. Third, it is important to make sure you are prepared for closing and have enough money saved-up to bring to the closing table. At the time of closing there are lender costs and third party costs, such as payments to insurance companies, surveyors, title companies, home owner associations, tax office, municipal utilities and many more, which must be paid at closing. It is important to communicate with your Attorney and mortgage lender to review all of the closing costs that you will be responsible for at the time of closing.

Monmouth Freeholders Endorse Bob Hugin For Senate MONMOUTH COUNTY – Monmouth County Freeholders, Director Tom Arnone, Deputy Director Lillian Burry, Patrick Impreveduto and Gerry Scharfenberger have endorsed Bob Hugin for U.S. Senate, noting in a statement: “Bob Hugin has led an extraordinary life of service and accomplishment. As a Marine, a businessman, philanthropist and family man, Bob has been an outstanding, yet humble, leader. New Jersey is fortunate that a man like Bob is
willing to step forward and both serve and put up with the rough and tumble of electoral politics. “As leaders in Monmouth County and the Republican Party, we proudly endorse Bob Hugin for the nomination for U.S, Senate. We urge the Monmouth Republican County Committee to endorse Mr. Hugin at our convention on Thursday evening, March 15 in Middletown and we urge all Monmouth County Republicans to vote for him in the primary on June 5.”

Sound Healing Seminar With Bartley Healthcare JACKSON - Sound is a sense that we need, but did you ever think how much more there is to that than just being able to hear? Can sound be used to help in healing and wellness? To explore those questions and more, Bartley Healthcare is partnering with Centrastate Medical Center to host an educational seminar to inform the community on the importance and positive effects of sound healing. The seminar will be held on April 23 at 5 p.m. at Bartley Healthcare Nursing and Rehabilitation at 175 Bartley Road in Jackson. Shelly Botwinick MA, Holistic Health Educator of the Star and Barry Tobias Health Awareness Center, will present information and be available to answer questions and provide guidance. Sound has been utilized in various cultures for thousands of years, using various techniques that all have the same intention: to move us from a place of imbalance to a place of balance. Sound healing is a vibrational energy method in which tonal sound waves harmonize the mind, body, and spirit. A gentle therapeutic vibration is conducted throughout the body to promote healing and wellness. Research has
shown sound balancing reduces stress and anxiety, increases energy, and enhances the immune response while transcending into a higher level of awareness. You will experience a renewed sense of harmony and balance! Seating is limited, so anyone interested in attending the “Sound Healing” educational seminar, please call Centrastate Medical Center at 732-308-0570, or visit centrastate.com, and click on Classes and Events. There will be a light dinner served, so if you are interested in attending, please call, or go online, and register. For 32 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 in memory care, skilled nursing, post-acute care, and assisted living. Bartley Healthcare is Joint Commission accredited, with special certification for their Memory Care and Post-Acute Programs.

Nature Conservancy Announces Grants For Living Shorelines NEW JERSEY – The Nature Conservancy is providing grants of up to $35,000 to New Jersey non-profit organizations, community and homeowner associations, academic institutions, local governments, and consulting firms considering living shoreline projects to combat erosion and other coastal hazards. Applications for funding must be received by Friday May 4, 2018. Living shorelines use native vegetation and natural materials to stabilize coastal areas, while often also providing recreational benefits for people and habitat for wildlife. Projects can include elements of native wetland vegetation, buffer plantings, and nonstructural bank stabilization materials, as well as hybrid structural elements including low-profile offshore sills or breakwaters, where appropriate. To encourage participation and make the
process easier, The Nature Conservancy is also offering technical planning assistance to communities interested in living shorelines. An informational webinar for the grant program will take place on Thursday March 15, followed by an in-person workshop on Thursday April 12 in Tuckerton. Webinar/workshop registration and additional information about the grant program is available at nature.org/njlivingshorelines. The Nature Conservancy is a leading conservation organization working around the world to protect ecologically important lands and waters for nature and people. To date, the Conservancy and its more than one million members have helped protect 130 million acres worldwide, including more than 55,000 in New Jersey. Visit The Nature Conservancy on the web at nature.org.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast
For the week of march 24 - march 30 By Jeraldine Saunders
ARIES (Mar 21-Apr. 19): Don’t look back. Show that you are the one who can get things done by taking definitive action and giving a maximum effort. Others may be comforted if you assume the role of leader this week. TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20): Take what you can get. You should set aside some extra time to spend with a loved one as schedules may conflict later in the week. Only purchase items that have some lasting value. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Put your best foot forward. The key to getting ahead with a new romantic prospect lies with making a good first impression. Career and business matters may fall into a rut in the week ahead. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Shake things up. Usual hobbies or pastimes may not cut it this week as you long to try something new and adventurous. Throw caution to the wind as hesitation is your only enemy. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. It is an excellent week to update or upgrade tools which may soon be out-of-date. Don’t let a minor problem get more attention than it’s worth. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’ve got all the time in the world. Move at the pace that is most comfortable and you’ll have no trouble fulfilling obligations this week. Keep a cool head even when it seems that the clock is against you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22.): Timing is everything. The stars may be trying to tell you something when someone is always there when needed and has all the right answers. Follow what you feel in your heart this week. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t bite off more than you can chew. Keep your ambitions within reason or you could quickly get overwhelmed by trying to do too much. A loved one may need attention this week. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Go with the flow. You may not agree with the current consensus, but it is easier to go along with the crowd. It may be to your benefit to keep opinions under your hat this week. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Play fair. You may gain a short-term edge by using cutthroat tactics, but you’ll lose a lot of respect in the long run. Be content as too much ambition doesn’t suit your needs this week. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The only thing to fear is fear itself. Overcoming doubts is the only obstacle that stands in the way of achieving goals this week. Set the bar as high as you like, and then rise to meet it. PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar. 20): Change may be in order. Fight off the tendency to put things off and get the ball rolling on new projects and plans. Put the past behind you this week, as your focus should be on the future.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen Spring Ahead With Vegetarian Chili By Wolfgang Puck VEGETARIAN THREE-BEAN AND QUINOA CHILI Serves 8 to 10 1 pound (500 g) dried white beans 1 pound (500 g) dried black beans 1 pound (500 g) pinto beans 3 dried guajillo chiles 1/2 cup (125 mL) extra-virgin olive oil 1 cup (250 mL) finely diced yellow onion 2 tablespoons minced garlic 2 tablespoons ground cumin 2 tablespoons pure chile powder 1 cup (250 mL) tomato paste 1 1/2 cups (375 mL) canned crushed tomatoes 3 tablespoons kosher salt, plus more to taste 1 1/2 gallons (5.75 L) vegetable stock 1 1/2 pounds (750 g) quinoa 2 jalapeno chiles, halved, stemmed, seeded and deveined, and minced 1/2 cup (125 mL) fresh lime juice 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup 3 ripe Hass avocados, halved, pitted, peeled and sliced, for garnish 1 cup (250 mL) sour cream, for garnish 1 cup (250 mL) chopped green onion, for garnish 1 cup (250 mL) chopped fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish 1 cup (250 mL) prepared tomato salsa, for garnish 3/4 cup (185 mL) thinly sliced fresh jalapeno chiles, or pickled jalapenos, for garnish
The night before you cook, pick through each batch of beans, removing any debris or misshapen beans. Rinse the beans put into separate large bowls, and add cold water to cover by at least 2 inches (5 cm). Leave to soak overnight, adding water as needed to keep the beans covered. The next day, put the guajillo chiles in a bowl, add enough hot water to cover, and leave to soak for 20 minutes. Drain. Carefully slit open the guajillos, and remove the seeds. Put the guajillos and a little soaking liquid in a blender, and puree to a paste. Transfer to a bowl, and set aside. Drain the beans, and set aside. Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add the olive oil and onion, and saute, stirring occasionally, until the onion turns translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and saute briefly until fragrant. Stir in the cumin and chile powder. Stir in the tomato paste, and saute, stirring until it darkens slightly, about 30 seconds. Add the drained soaked beans. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, with their juices, the guajillo puree, salt, and enough vegetable stock to submerge the beans completely. Cover the pot securely and cook, adjusting the heat to maintain a simmer, until the beans are cooked through and tender but still firm and whole, 20 to 30 minutes. Stir in the quinoa, cover, and cook until tender, 5 to 7 minutes, adding more stock if needed. Stir in the minced jalapenos, lime juice and maple syrup. Simmer, uncovered, over low heat for about 15 minutes, stirring often. Taste and, if needed, add a little more salt. Arrange the avocado, sour cream, green onion, cilantro, salsa and sliced fresh or pickled jalapenos in bowls to serve as garnishes. Ladle the chili into individual serving bowls, inviting guests to garnish their servings to taste.
