The map shows the main Opportunity Zone along Route 37, but much of it is in the woods. By Chris Lundy BERKELEY – Parts of Manchester Township are now designated Opportunity Zones that are designed to entice businesses to invest in commercial projects.
The Opportunity Zone incentivizes investors to pour their money into areas that need improvements with less risk. They are allowed to defer capital gains on earnings from those investments. (Zones - See Page 4)

Elder Law Attorney Novy Indicted For Fraud By Jennifer Peacock OCEAN COUNTY - A trusted attorney was indicted for allegedly using his knowledge of elder law to swindle six Ocean County women. Robert Novy, 66, of Brick, ran a law practice in Manchester Township, and hosted a popular radio program, “Inside the Law,” that dealt with elder law issues. He also allegedly stole $1.9 million from clients between 2009 and 2016, generally from women who had no close relatives and, in some cases, suffered from dementia. The New Jersey State Attorney General’s Office announced that the Division of Criminal Justice Financial & Computer Crimes Bureau got a grand jury indictment against Novy on 10 counts of theft, money laundering, and “misapplication of entrusted property.” The counts range from first- to second-degree crimes and carry penalties ranging from fines up to $500,000 and 10-20 years prison time. Although these indictments were handed down April 30, the Division of Criminal Justice is still investigating “numerous additional suspicious financial transactions involving funds of other clients of Novy,” the state attorney general’s office said. “We allege that Novy systematically drained his clients’ assets, laundering funds through (Fraud - See Page 5)
81 Years Since Hindenburg’s Crash
By Chris Lundy LAKEHURST – The Navy Lakehurst Historical Society will again hold a ceremony in remembrance of the crash of the Hindenburg that claimed 36 people in 1937. While the actual anniversary of the crash is
May 6, Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst will be booked with the Power In The Pines Open House Air Show that runs Saturday and Sunday. Therefore, the remembrance ceremony will be held on May 9, said Carl Jablonski, president of the histor-
ical society. Not e ve r yo n e i s aware of the history that happened right in their back yard, he said. That’s why it’s so important to keep the memory alive. “Yesterday’s history is today’s news,” he said.

Zones:
Continued From Page 1 The longer they invest, the better the deal is for them. If they maintain their investment for ten or more years, they are not subject to any additional capital gains tax on earnings in that zone. The zones are designated by census tracts, so large areas of residential are included even though there won’t be commercial development there. The Opportunity Zone doesn’t change the current zoning of the property. This is important to note since there are residential areas in the Opportunity Zones. The deal is available for private investors for already-existing commercial property. The main zone in Manchester encompasses the Route 37 corridor east of Lakehurst. This zone carries most of Route 530 toward the western boundary of Manchester. Another triangular shaped tract comes off 37, follows Route 70, and ends at the border of town near the Toms River border, skipping Pine Lake Park. Manchester Councilman Sam Fusaro was cautiously optimistic. “Anything that helps commercial businesses is a plus,” however, there are plenty of hurdles to business in the area, he said. The state has limited development to 30 percent of a property in those areas, he said.
In other words, the owner of the property can’t build on more than 30 percent of their land. This figure includes driveways and parking. In some areas of Toms River, they could have 70 percent. In some parts of Lakewood, there is 90 percent. So, there’s a stronger incentive for an investor to go to those towns. Additionally, there are not very many parcels left for development in town. In the last master plan, there were only about 20 parcels that were larger than 5 acres left, he said. “We’re not sure it’s going to make a big difference in Manchester, but we’re optimistic,” he said. There were also two tracts in Berkeley and six in Lakewood that were identified. The Opportunity Zones program was part of the 2017 federal Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The State Department of Community Affairs submitted recommendations for Opportunity Zones in towns throughout New Jersey to the United States Department of the Treasury for approval. The eligible Opportunity Zones are census tracts with a poverty rate of 20 percent, or a median family income up to 80 percent of the area median. The state was allowed to submit up to 25 percent of all census tracts. The approvals came less than three weeks later. All 169 recommendations were approved,
amounting to at least one zone in every county, according to a press release from Gov. Phil Murphy’s office. Reaction To The Program Critics of the program point out that it helps first and foremost investors, and that there’s no guarantee that the benefits that investors get will be used to stimulate jobs locally. There is also a concern that the investors could change the character of certain areas and push out existing businesses. However, some policy makers lauded the zones. “New Jersey is committed to using every tool at our disposal to develop our communities and grow our economy,” Governor Murphy said in a press release. “This program provides real opportunity for our state that has the potential to create significant, long-term economic development in the communities that need it the most.” Choosing these spots was the result of a number of state departments, including Sen. Cory Booker’s (D-NJ) office, and roundtables with various government officials and local mayors, the release stated. The goal was to spread out the zones so that every county got at least one. “Every community should have access to the resources needed to realize its full entrepreneurial potential,” said Senator Cory

Booker in a press release. “But barriers stand between too many of our communities and the capital needed to generate economic growth and opportunity. I’m proud our governor is utilizing this tool to help drive investment across our state, and I look forward to continuing our partnership to create jobs, increase wages, and support economic growth in every corner of New Jersey.” New Jersey Future, a nonprofit that promotes sensible growth and redevelopment, praised the quick approval of these zones. “Our analysis largely suggests that these Opportunity Zone tracts are places where strategic investments can serve as a strong catalyst for future economic growth,” New Jersey Future Executive Director Peter Kasabach said in a press release. “They have the right combination of good location and durable assets on which to build, and they show the potential to provide the return that Opportunity Fund investors will be seeking.” New Jersey Future studied a number of factors, including changes in population, median rent, and median income between 2011 and 2016, in the Opportunity Zones when compared to other areas of the state. The group also looked at transportation and other information to determine if the areas have a “town center” feel.

various bank accounts and charging unauthorized fees to enrich himself and his firm,” director Elie Honig of the Division of Criminal Justice said. “We urge anyone with relevant information about Novy and his handling of client funds to contact our office.” Novy was arrested Oct. 18, 2016 after being investigated by several government agencies, including the Division of Criminal Justice Financial & Computer Crimes Bureau and the New Jersey Division of Taxation Office of Criminal Investigation. It had been referred to the Division of Criminal Justice by Ocean County Surrogate Jeffrey W. Moran. A complaint against him from the New Jersey Office of Attorney Ethics was also issued Jan. 26 that year. Detectives executed a search warrant of Novy’s law office in Manchester, seizing bills and other evidence. More than $3.5 million in firm assets were frozen by court order, and a trustee was appointed to oversee Novy’s law practice. “Novy allegedly stole nearly $2 million from vulnerable clients, preying on seniors who

Farland came back east from Denver when she received a call from her mother, then age 94. Farland ended up staying for 11 months, wrangling with Novy and his associates to untangle her mother from his grip. Her mother had $3 million in the bank, and by the time Novy and others had made Stover change her will and sign away her money to a family member, Farland alleges, her mother was in a nursing home on Medicaid. She died six years later. Farland was happy to hear that Novy was indicted on the charges April 30. “I’m happy. He should be (indicted). He made a lot of old people miserable because he cheated them. These are old people that are good people. And then they’re abused by this man?” she said. It appears Stover is not part of the 10 counts against Novy at this time. The attorney general’s office did not release the names of his victims, but gave accounts of six women who were stolen from: An 88-year-old Brick woman, who died in 2015, allegedly lost $738,457. An 87-year-old Manchester woman who suffered from dementia, who died in 2014, lost $650,700.
An 85-year-old woman from Brick, who suffered from Alzheimer’s and died in 2013, lost $242,305. An 87-year-old Point Pleasant woman, who suffered from dementia and died in 2015, lost $103,843. An 85-year-old Waretown woman, who died in 2013, and her 92-year-old husband in 2011, lost $45,520. A Manchester woman, currently 98, lost $130,000. The state alleges that Novy worked in three ways: he would simply transfer funds from clients’ personal bank accounts or liquidated personal assets to his own bank account ($322,342); he transferred funds into an Interest on Lawyer Trust Account, accounts he controlled as power of attorney ($929,026); and transferred client funds from various accounts into his firm’s operating and disbursement accounts, and would overbill clients for power of attorney fees with no invoices ($659,457). He attempted to hide the money. Superior Court Judge Mary C. Jacobson, Mercer County, handed up the indictment. The case is assigned to Ocean County. Novy will appear in court for arraignment, though no date has been publicly announced.

closure for them, he said. In a broader sense, the ceremony remembers those who died serving in the armed forces. “This is a chance to reflect, to remember those who made the sacrifice and hope this doesn’t happen again,” he said. “Let’s have peace in the world.”

were frail and isolated and who trusted him as their attorney to guard their life savings,” Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal said. “It is hard to imagine a more callous personal and professional betrayal.” The state alleges Novy stole from elderly and deceased clients, those with no close relatives to claim their estates or challenge Novy. The attorney allegedly used those funds to pay for personal and business expenses. So how did he do this? The state asserts Novy gained control by making himself the sole financial decision-maker for these clients. By doing so, he gained control over wills, powers of attorney and trust documents. Novy also directed insurance companies to redeem policies and send those funds directly to him. When challenged, Novy would claim those deposits were “administrative errors” and repay those funds. “I knew he was a crook, and I told him that,” Barbara Farland told Jersey Shore Online. Her mother, Mary Stover, was victimized by Novy and her own sister, who Farland said dated the attorney before her death in 2014. “He was really interested that I said that, and he asked me why I said that. I said ‘I’m not telling you. I’m going to tell it to the judge.’”

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY E DITORIAL School Loyalty Lasts A Lifetime I was attending a play put on by local kids when a very funny woman sitting next to me struck up a conversation. She wanted to know what school my daughter was in, and if she knew any of the kids on stage. As we continued talking, this woman explained that she had attended Toms River High School, back when it was the only one. It’s now referred to as High School South. I don’t know how old she was, but if it’s any indication, she said her brother would have been 90 this year. She said her great-niece goes to High School North now, and that was who she was there to see. She joked that it’s OK for them to go to North, even
though she’ll always have a soft spot for South. It occurred to me how long you maintain a loyalty to your old school, as long as the memories there are good. After all, she probably hadn’t been to high school for about 70 years, and she was still speaking fondly of it. I told her that I went to East, so that school has a soft spot for me. However, my daughter will eventually attend South. She nodded. “It doesn’t matter what Toms River school they go to,” she said. “…as long as they beat Brick…” So, I guess friendly rivalries last a lifetime, too. Chris Lundy News Editor

Letters To The Editor MacArthur Thanked, Advocating For Veterans Clinic I am writing to thank Congressman MacArthur for continuing to stand up for our veterans. Recently, he has taken charge, pushing the Veterans Administration to expedite their relocation project of the Brick VA Clinic. The 3rd Congressional District has the largest number of veterans in New Jersey. The current parking situation at the Brick clinic has caused much hardship to veterans who are receiving care there. It is a disgrace to those who have sacrificed for our freedom and it should be addressed immediately. Congressman MacArthur has long been an outspoken advocate for those who have served our country, and he is continuing to do so with his latest efforts. Thanks to him for once again standing up to the bureaucracy and putting our veterans first. Maurice “Mo” Hill Rear Admiral, DC, USN(ret) Councilman-at-Large, Toms River

Letters The SNAP areEditor less likely to Congress is the Food InseSave SNAPTo in And Protect Vulnerable People Most people would love to eat something healthy and delicious for dinner, but preparing a nutritious meal can be a challenge, especially on a tight budget. Hunger and food insecurity are a reality of daily life for too many of our New Jersey neighbors, children, seniors, veterans and active-duty military, who struggle to make ends meet. According to the non-profit group, Feeding America, 10.8 percent of households in NJ faced limited access to adequate food because of a lack of money or other resources. Almost a million New Jersey residents do not always know how they will afford their next meal. Fortunately, the federal government’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, the nation’s largest food assistance program, strengthens families and the nation by keeping more than 8 million people out of poverty, including over 360,000 children, 128,000 seniors, and 218,000 disabled in New Jersey as of January 2018, while improving health and lowering health care costs. However, this crucial program faces an uncertain future as Congress debates the 2018 farm bill, the primary legislation that authorizes agriculture and food policy in the U.S. SNAP is a lifeline for those challenged by working long days at low wages, facing an unexpected health emergency or experiencing job loss or long-term disability. SNAP has proven especially beneficial for pregnant women, reducing the numbers of children born with low birthweight by as much as 23 percent. For children, food assistance can benefit them for the rest of their lives: Children participating

have anemia or nutritional deficiencies and more likely to do better in school. SNAP also makes economic sense, causing money to quickly flow into the economy by boosting spending at local retailers and benefitting Jersey farms. The investment we make in SNAP also reduces spending on future health care. On average, low-income adults participating in SNAP experience health care costs that are nearly 25 percent lower than those with similar income who don’t participate. In most U.S. counties, the SNAP benefit does not even cover the full cost of a meal. Feeding America estimates an increase of $5.3 million would allow all New Jersey residents to afford an adequate and nutritious diet each year, building on the effectiveness of the program. That’s just a little more than $3 per meal. The farm bill also funds the effective nutrition education programs known as Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Education, or SNAP-Ed, and the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program, or EFNEP. These programs help maximize their investment by teaching people how to stretch their limited food dollars to buy healthy meals. Research has shown the benefits of these programs continue for years after participation in the program has ended. Combined, SNAP-Ed and EFNEP account for less than one-tenth of 1 percent of federal health care spending. With a budget of just $68 million in 2016, EFNEP worked with 119,000 adults and 365,000 children - a total program cost of less than $150 for every individual reached. Of these, 98 percent of adults improved nutrition practices, 84 percent improved food resource management skills and 65 percent improved food security practices by participating in the program, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Also at risk in
curity Nutrition Incentive, a program that provides a cash incentive for purchases of fresh fruits and vegetables, ensuring that dollars are spent on healthy food while boosting the market for Jersey farmers. In all these ways and more, SNAP does great things to reduce hunger and food insecurity. As Registered Dietitians and members of the New Jersey Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, we are urging Senators Menendez and Booker, as well as all New Jersey House members not to cut SNAP’s funding or include harmful changes in the farm bill. Let’s continue to build on SNAP’s strengths and the programs that shore up its success. The New Jersey Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics
MacArthur’s Gun Votes Not Bipartisan I am writing in response to Congressman Tom MacArthur’s self-serving article “Bipartisan Steps Taken to Curb Gun Violence” published April 14. MacArthur advocates for more research on gun violence, but in February he wanted the research to focus on Hollywood and video games as part of a study of the “moral and spiritual decay in our society.” He doesn’t want to do anything to eliminate assault rifle-style killing machines, but he wants armed guards in schools. He advocates for strengthening background checks, but he voted to loosen restrictions on gun availability for the mentally ill. MacArthur was the architect of the concealed carry reciprocity bill, which endangers his constituents and which no law enforcement agency in the state endorsed. This bill was far from bi-partisan. In fact, he hasn’t endorsed any gun safety proposals from the other side of the aisle. Its’ time MacArthur drop the false image of bipartisanship. Kevin Kennedy Waretown

Taskforce Statement On Findings Of New Anti-Semitism Report From The Desk Of
Congressman
Chris Smith WASH I NGTON D.C. – Representatives Chris S m i t h ( R- N J ) , P e t e r R o s k a m ( R- I L) , N i t a L owe y ( D - N Y ), El io t E ngel ( D -N Y ), I le a n a Ro s - L e h t i n e n ( R- F L), Ted Deutch (D-FL), Kay Granger (R-TX), and Marc Veasey (D-TX), the coChairs of the Bipartisan
Task Force for Combating Anti-Semitism, issued the following joint statement on a recent report by the Kantor Center for the Study of Contemporar y Eu ropean Jew r y at Tel Aviv indicating a sharp increase in anti-Semitism across Europe: “We are gravely con-
cerned by the staggering increase in anti-Semitism across Europe as documented in the recent report by the Kantor Center for the Study of Contemporary European Jewry at Tel Aviv University. It is inexcusable that Jews in Europe are living in fear of violence, harassment, and abuse in 2018 for no reason other than their faith. When widespread anti-Semitism goes unchecked in Europe, the results are heinous, sometimes even deadly, and we must redouble our efforts to reverse the trend of such bigotry.
“We therefore urge our Senate colleagues to pass H.R. 672, the Combating European Anti-Semitism Act, aut hored by Ta sk Force Co-Chair Rep. Nita Lowey to require the State Department to document the security challenges of European Jewish communities, U.S. par t nerships with European law enforcement agencies to cou nter anti-Semitism, and efforts by European governments to acknowledge, adopt and apply a working defi nition of anti-Semitism. “Additionally, attacks on
and threats to Jewish communities globally are why it is urgent for the Administration to immediately appoint a Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism. Congress created and required this position through provisions of law authored by Task Force Co-Chair Rep. Chris Smith to provide a full view of the anti-Semitic challenges for Jewish communities abroad and to lead U.S. efforts to fight anti-Semitism. We call on the State Department to swiftly fi ll this position. “We also urge the House
to pass H.R. 1911, the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat A nti-Semitism Act, aut hored by Ta sk Force Co-Chair Rep. Chris Smith to strengthen and elevate the Special Envoy position. The bill requires the position to be elevated to the rank of Ambassador and appointed by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate, report directly to the Secretary of State, be a person of recognized distinction in directly relevant fields, and to be exclusively dedicated to monitoring and combating anti-Semitism.”
Act Would Develop Plan To Fight Opiate Addiction Capitol Comments Senator Robert Menendez
WASHINGTON, D.C. U.S. Senators Bob Menendez (D-N.J.), Dean Heller (R-Nev.) and Johnny Isakson (R- Ga.) int roduced the Opioid Addiction Action Plan Act, bipartisan legislation that requires the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to develop a plan by January 1, 2019 to prevent opioid addiction and i ncrease access to medication-assisted treatment. “The opioid crisis impacts ever y community in our nation. It affects people from every walk of life, and the problem continues to grow,” said Sen. Menendez. “We need to change the way Medica re and Medicaid ap proach pain management and addiction treatment. By developing an Opioid Add ict ion Act ion Pla n that focuses on improving
access to substance abuse treatment and providing non-opioid pain management solutions, we can turn the tide of the opioid crisis.” Under the proposal, the secret a r y of H HS w ill submit a report to Congress involving recommendations on data collection and improvements to Medicare and Medicaid coverage and reimbursement of medication-assisted treatment. HHS will also consider ways to improve provider education on treatments for chronic pain and addiction, and methods to expand access to treatment for rural and med ically-u nder ser ved communities. The legislation also dir e c t s H HS t o ide nt i f y FDA-approved technologies that are non-opioid treatments for acute and chronic pain management, technologies that monitor withdrawal and prevent
overdose, and technologies that treat substance use disorder and opioid use disorder. C o n g r e s s m a n Ad a m K i n z i n g e r ( R- I L) a n d Congresswoman Yvette D. Clarke (D-NY) earlier this week introduced H.R . 5590, compa n ion legislation in U.S. House of Representatives. Earlier this week, the Opioid Crisis Response Act of 2018 passed out of t he Senate H ELP com mit tee that included provisions written by Sens. Menendez and Cory Booker. The provisions will support hospitals and emergency departments in identifying and implementing best practices for alternatives to the use of opioids. Se n s. Me ne ndez a nd Booker, joined Congressman Bill Pascrell, Jr. at St. Joseph’s Regional Medical Center in Paterson where they discussed bipar tisan, bicameral legislation that the lawmakers introduced to help boost hospit als’ resou rces i n the fight against opioid addiction, known as The Alter natives to Opioids (ALTO) in the Emergency Department Act.
T h e A LT O p r og r a m launched at St. Joe’s in 2016. When the program lau nched, the law ma kers convened a statewide summit at St. Joe’s to explore solutions to the heroin and opioid addiction epidemic gripping New Jersey and the nation. In just two years since implementing ALTO, St. Joe’s
has successfully reduced opioid prescr iptions in their emergency room by 82%. Last month, Sen. Menendez toured a local recovery center in Elizabeth, where he met with experts and individuals in recovery, and announced a budget ag reement he supported that provided
an additional $6 billion to fund the national fight against the opioid crisis. T he senator is also a n original cosponsor of the Combating the Opioid Epidemic Act, which would authorize $45 billion over ten years for opioid abuse treatment, prevention, detection, and surveillance programs.

2018 Memorial Day Parade Comes To Pine Lake Park May 28
MANCHESTER – Manchester Township and the Department of Recreation are proud to announce that the annual Memorial Day Parade has been scheduled for Monday, May 28, 2018, at the Grand Army Memorial in Pine Lake Park. Marchers will begin their journey to the Memorial, located at Wellington Avenue and Oakdale Street, at 10 a.m. from the intersection of Commonwealth Boulevard and Southampton Boulevard. Once the parade reaches the Memorial, guest speakers and Township officials will offer remarks commemorating the day. Parade participants will gather at 9:15 a.m. at Commonwealth Boulevard and Southampton Boulevard. Street parking for the free event is available on roads near the Memorial except for Oakdale. As always, groups are invited to march in
the parade. The Township also welcomes all to place wreaths or flowers at the Memorial. Any group that would like to place a wreath at the Memorial should call the Department of Recreation at 732-657-8121, ext. 5102 to register. Manchester Township is continuing the tradition of inviting children to adorn their bicycles with patriotic decorations and take part in the parade. Prizes will be awarded for the best decorated bicycles. All children who participate are required to wear a proper bicycle helmet.

Most hearing aid batteries are of the zinc-air type, which means they use air from outside the battery to react with the main chemical (zinc) inside the battery to generate energy. Zinc-air batteries are not activated until the tab is removed from the top of the cell, allowing air to travel inside the battery. Once the tab has been removed, the battery begins to work (but sometimes it can take a couple of minutes to do so). If the tab is replaced, the battery life will not be prolonged. Zinc-air batteries have an impressive shelf life of up to three years when stored in a cool, dry place. Do not store your batteries in your refrigerator since moisture can affect zinc-air batteries. Hearing aid batteries are categorized by the size and color-code used on the packaging. Both size and color-code are standardized within the hearing aid industry. The five sizes and color codes

The smaller the battery, the shorter its battery life. Because many consumers prefer small hearing instruments, batteries must also be small and are limited in providing the long use-period that is common to many other battery-powered products on the market. In general, batteries last from five days up to five weeks, with the smaller batteries having limited battery life. When buying hearing aid batteries, make sure they have a “freshness date”. On the average, batteries should cost between 80 to 95 cents each. Batteries at Garden State Hearing and Balance Center cost $3.50 for a package of four batteries.

The public is invited to attend to learn more about Department services and job opportunities. There will be representatives from all divisions of the OCHD present to answer any questions you may have. If you are looking for a job, you can fi nd more information inside the Department as well. “The Ocean County Health Department has consistently served the residents of Ocean County well; through a myriad of services ranging from the provision of annual flu shots, with over 185 clinics this year alone, to providing shelters for dogs and cats up for adoption in both the northern and southern parts of the County,” said Freeholder Director and Board of Health Liaison Gerry P. Little. Little noted that thousands of Ocean County residents are served by the OCHD and its programs. “I encourage our residents to stop by the Department on May
17th to fi nd out more of what the Department offers, including potential employment for qualified candidates.” “We have a vibrant and exceptional workforce committed to providing services to the residents of our county to improve public health every day. We are pleased to offer this job fair to showcase the many services we provide and to attract potential future employees to join us in our mission to improve public health,” said Daniel E. Regenye, Public Health Coordinator for the Ocean County Health Department. “The job fair will serve as a unique opportunity to both engage the public on the many services offered through the Department, while, hopefully, serving as a catalyst for recruitment for positions which may be available now and in the future for community members seeking employment at a mission driven agency centered on the improvement of public health. The public is invited to attend at the main campus, Toms River, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Thursday, May 17th,” added Brian E.

Health Myths That You Think Are True
By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
About Eyes. Contrary to popular belief, some people can keep their eyes open when they sneeze! Also, green is the rarest eye color to have. About that Trick Knee. Some of you have a trick knee (or shoulder) that can predict weather. Basically, you can tell when bad weather or a storm is coming with one off our bum joints. As the barometric or atmospheric pressure drops (before a storm), tissues in joints expand a little bit, and your knee or shoulder may feel it and alert you by experiencing pain. About Spinach. Some nutritionists still recommend spinach for people who have iron-deficiency anemia due to the iron content. Even Popeye made it famous for building up muscles. But the fact is that the iron content isn’t as high as you were told. It was mistakenly reported as 35 grams instead of 3.5 grams per serving, due to a printing error where the decimal point got moved. The chemist made a mistake in 1870 and it’s still being perpetuated. About #2. Pushing out waste in the wee hours of the morning doesn’t happen because we have sophisticated neurons in our gut that follow our 24 hour circadian rhythm. The bladder however, is only so big, and you might not be able to hold urine for 6 hours while you’re sleeping. About Burping. Also termed eructation, this is just your body expelling gas through your mouth. Most people burp between 8 and 20 times a day. It’s not
objectionable to burp out loud after eating a meal in certain parts of China, India and a small island in the Middle East. About Amnesia. This occasionally happens after mind-blowing sex, and luckily it’s temporary. People can lose their immediate memories. It’s clinically termed “Transient Global Amnesia” and it can also occur after strenuous activity like vigorously exercising, jumping into hot water or a brain injury. About Hair. The color grey is a neutral tone between black and white and it really just appears due to the absence of color in the hair shaft. While it’s not a hard-fast rule, blondes have more hair on their heads than redheads, however each hair shaft is thinner in diameter. Redheads on the other hand, tend to have thicker hair shafts and less hair. Hair grows faster when you sleep. About Your Tongue. Like that unique fingerprint, you also have your own tongue print. The average tongue has thousands of taste buds. About Your Ticker. A human heart will beat about 2.5 billion times in an average lifetime. By the way a football weighs just slightly more than your heart. About Kissing. It lowers cortisol which is a stress hormone known to inflame the body. So kissing is a natural anti-inflammatory. And get this, while I wouldn’t call it romantic, it’s still interesting… the longest kiss on record goes to a Thai couple who locked lips for a 58 hours and 35 minutes! Eeew.

Ocean County Towns To Receive Recycling Revenue
By Kimberly Bosco TOMS RIVER – It was recently announced that Ocean County will be distributing nearly $150,000 to towns throughout the county as a part of the Recycling Revenue Sharing Program. “This is the amount of revenue we are sharing from the last six months of 2017,” said Ocean County Freeholder Director Gerry P. Little, who serves as liaison to the County’s recycling
program. The $150,000 revenue is from the second half of 2017. Municipalities collected 41,721 tons of recyclables during this time. However, the County is seeing a decline in the amount of money that markets are paying for recycling materials, Little added. Recycling was generating nearly $26 a ton seven years ago. Now, as of the second half of 2017,
it is only generating approximately $3.58 per ton. “I am pleased we can still distribute the revenue to our municipalities,” he said. “Recycling in Ocean County continues to be an important component of our solid waste management plan providing a host of environmental and economic benefits. The County’s recycling efforts also saved municipalities approximately $3 million col-
lectively in tipping fees throughout the second half of 2017, which is a substantial savings for the taxpayers, Little said. Since the Recycling Revenue Sharing program began in 1995, the County has returned over $16 million to the towns, according to Freeholder Deputy Director John C. Bartlett Jr. This amount is based on the amount of recyclables collected and brought to the County, as well as the price per item in the current market, Bartlett added. “These prices change all the time because of supply and demand in the marketplace,” Little said. “The trend for recycling materials is however trending downward.” “We are watching this trend closely to determine if any future adjustments will have to be made to our recycling program,” Little said. According to Ernest Kuhlwein, Ocean County’s Director of Solid Waste Management, the markets for recyclables have taken a downward turn now that China is no longer accepting as much of the material it once had. Due to China’s reduced demand, a backlog of materials has been created. “China was a big consumer of our paper,” Kuhlwein said. “But now, it is recycling more of its own material reducing the demand for America’s recyclable materials. Kuhlwein added that this looks like the way of the future. “Recycling remains a key program in Ocean County allowing us to save precious landfill space and natural resources,” Little said. Ocean County does not charge for accepting municipal recyclables. Towns can use the revenue sharing money whoever they need to, but many still invest it back into the recycling program. The towns receiving recycling revenue include: • Barnegat Township, $5,032 • Barnegat Light, $571 • Bay Head, $466 • Beach Haven, $1,972 • Beachwood, $1,623 • Berkeley Township, $7,830 • Brick Township, $16,249 • Eagleswood Township, $343 • Harvey Cedars, $537 • Island Heights, $472 • Jackson Township, $9,047 • Lacey Township, $7,004 • Lakehurst, $436 • Lakewood Township, $25,373 • Lavallette, $1,232 • Little Egg Harbor Township, $5,521 • Long Beach Township, $4,063 • Manchester Township, $5,344 • Mantoloking, $205 • Ocean Township, $1,661 • Ocean Gate, $432 • Pine Beach, $416 • Plumsted Township, $600 • Point Pleasant Beach, $1,866 • Point Pleasant Borough, $4,956 • Seaside Heights, $1,203 • Seaside Park, $1,097 • Ship Bottom, $1,378 • South Toms River, $541 • Stafford Township, $12,231 • Surf City, $1,294 • Toms River Township, $27,114 • Tuckerton, $1,239 The townships of Brick, Jackson, Lakewood, Stafford, and Toms River are receiving the largest portions of recycling revenue.

The series, which began in 2017 and has been hosted in 15 counties thus far, focuses on the link between prescription opioid dependency and heroin use and examines the causes and possible solutions of the opioid crisis from several perspectives, including law enforcement, government, the medical community, prevention, treatment and recovery.
Ocean County has been greatly impacted by the opioid crisis. In 2016, 253 people died of drug overdoses in Ocean County, a majority of which involved heroin, fentanyl and prescription opioids. That total represented the second-highest among New Jersey’s 21 counties. Speakers will include Ocean County Prosecutor Joseph D. Coronato and other
experts from the county. A dedicated website, knockoutopioidabuse.drugfreenj.org, includes the full schedule of countywide town hall meetings and registration information. Knockoutopioidabuse.drugfreenj.org also provides local, county and state substance use prevention and treatment resources available.

County Commemorates WWI With Tulip Poplar Tree
TOMS RIVER – The Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders continued its commemoration of Ocean County’s participation in World War I with the planting of a Tulip Poplar tree during the County’s annual Arbor Day celebration. The event took place at 11 a.m., May 2 in front of the Ocean County Courthouse, 118 Washington St. The planting of the Tulip Poplar tree is in partnership with a nation-wide memorial tree program by the Saving Hallowed Ground organization. This Tulip Poplar tree will be a lasting memorial to the Ocean County residents who fought during World War I and especially those that made the ultimate sacrifice during this conflict, according to Ocean County Freeholder Deputy Director John C. Bartlett Jr., who serves as liaison to the Ocean County Shade Tree Commission. The popular tree was one of several trees planted as part of a national effort after the war to remember those who served during the war. “A Tulip Poplar tree was a beautiful feature on the Courthouse lawn for many years prior to being taken down because of age,” said Bartlett. “We look forward to having this new tree take root on the grounds of the Courthouse as a reminder of the sacrifices made in The Great War.” The tree also was planted in conjunction with Arbor Day. The event included music performed by the Libby Prison Minstrels, and students from Toms River High School South and South Toms River Elementary School were in attendance. Barry L. Johnson, Chairman of the Saving Hallowed Ground Board of Directors, spoke and lead the unfolding of the Garrison flag. “Out of the County’s 1920 population of 22,155 residents, 2,433 Ocean County men served in the Great War, and 75 made the

ultimate sacrifice,” said Bartlett, “This tree will stand in dedication to those who served our nation.” The Saving Hallowed Ground’s memorial tree program is part of their efforts to commemorate the World War I Centennial. The goal is to plant trees across the country to serve as living reminders of the soldiers and citizens who served on both small and large scales across the country and around the world during World War I. Throughout history and literature, trees have appeared to be a common symbol for life. Arbor Day is an annual observance that celebrates the roles of trees in our lives and promotes tree planting and care. “This is a great opportunity for residents to understand the significance World War I had in Ocean County,” said Ocean County Freeholder Director Gerry P. Little, who serves as liaison to the Veterans Services Bureau. “It also reminds residents that trees not only beautify our County, but they are also a vital part of our environment.”

Seaside: No Dogs On Boardwalk After All
By Chris Lundy SEASIDE HEIGHTS – Allowing dogs on the boardwalk year-round seemed like a good way to support the borough’s family-friendly nature, except that dog owners and families were against the idea. In 2017, the Borough Council instituted a change that allowed dogs on the boardwalk through the winter months, Mayor Anthony Vaz said. Specifically, this was described as between Oct. 15 and the weekend prior to Palm Sunday. “That worked out fine. There were no problems,” he said. So, there was a move to expand it. Why not have dogs on the boardwalk year-round? What better way to invite families than to include the family pets? In order for the change to take place, the council would have to introduce it during one meeting, and then approve it during another one. After it was introduced, the public found out about it from online news articles and word spread. The resistance to this was so strong that Vaz asked the council members to let the motion die at the next meeting. “I’ve received over 100 communications giving me reasons not to do it,” he said. The most important thing about this was that so many of them were dog owners. One of the biggest arguments is that dogs can bite toddlers, which really ends the family-friendly atmosphere, he said. Someone also told him “I won’t go to a restaurant if dogs are allowed.” There are good dogs, and there are good dog owners. There are also bad dogs and bad dog owners. “Have I seen dogs on the boardwalk behaving themselves? Yes,” he said. “The negatives are outweighing the
pros,” he said. Legally, if a dog bites someone, it is the dog owner’s responsibility, the borough attorney informed the governing body. However, in this day and age, anyone could sue anyone, so Vaz said he expected that the borough would be dragged into court as well. First, the public had an outcry that there were going to be dogs on the boardwalk. Now that the public knows there won’t be dogs there, there has not been any outcry in defense of keeping the dogs on the boards, he said. Instead, people have reached out to tell him they are doing the right thing. Some people have suggested a middle ground: allow the dogs in the morning, before the boardwalk gets crowded. This presents a different problem, Vaz said. A dog owner could see a dogwalker on the boards in the morning and decide to do it later. It would be difficult to keep someone from doing it later in the day, when people are allowed in the morning. It is better to be consistent, he said. For example, he contacted Seaside Heights’ neighbors, and dogs aren’t allowed on any of their boardwalks, either. “We’re too crowded in the summer,” he said. Dog Days However, there are still opportunities to have your dog on the boardwalk. The winter rules are still in effect, allowing you to take the dogs throughout the colder months. Additionally, there is a day in July and another in August where there are dog-related vendors set up on the boardwalk. During those two days, dogs are allowed.

By Kimberly Bosco LAKEHURST – Four local New Jersey women, two from Howell and two from Toms River, were honored recently as the 2018 recipients of the nationally recognized Soroptimist International of the Central Jersey Coast Awards at La Bove Grande Restaurant in Lakehurst. The Soroptimist Awards are given to those who demonstrate exceptional service and empowerment in their professional lives. This year’s recipients happened to all be women, including Mariella J. Pedercini and Hannah Misyak of Howell, and Amy VanBezooijen and Kim Santora of Toms River. “It was a really lovely evening to honor these lovely ladies,” said Deborah Weingroff, volunteer at The HOPE Center and member of the Soroptimist International of Central Jersey Coast. Weingroff remarked that all of the recipients and their families were present and the evening was filled with lots of laughs and smiles. Soroptimist International of Central Jersey Coast is part of “an international women’s organization for business and professional women who work to improve the lives of women and girls, in local communities and throughout the world,” according to their website. “These are national awards,” said Weingroff, emphasizing what a great achievement it is to be chosen. Pedercini was the recipient of the Live Your Dream Award. This award is an education and training award that is meant to acknowledge empowerment through education for Pedercini as she goes on to pursue a certification in the medical field. The Live Your Dream Award is usually given to a female head of household, someone who is working to improve the lives of both herself and her children through further education. Also from Howell is Hannah Misyak, senior

at Howell High School. Misyak was honored with the Violet Richardson Award, Honoring Young Women for Volunteer Action, for those ages 14-17. Misyak has demonstrated her great volunteer work capabilities through her time with the Girl Scouts. She has earned Bronze and Silver Awards, volunteered countless hours to the Rescue Ridge animal shelter, and most impressively, has established the “4 Paws Sake Family Fun Fest.” This is a charity event that benefits rescue animals, which is also helping her pursue her Girl Scout Gold Award. “When she goes to apply to college, they will look favorably on that,” said Weingroff about Misyak. Misyak’s “4 Paws Sake Family Fun Fest” will take place on April 21 from 11-4 a.m. at Allaire State Park. This program will benefit homeless animals and raise awareness about what it means to own a pet. Both staff members at The HOPE Center in Toms River, VanBezooijen and Santora, were the honorable recipients of the Ruby Award, Women Helping Women. This award is meant for women who have dedicated time to improving the lives of other women through professional endeavors. The HOPE Center is a non-profit organization that aims “to provide support, resources, referrals, food to clients as they work to overcome a current life crisis,” according to their website. The work that VanBezooijen and Santora perform here helps to empower other women in their everyday lives. Weingroff said that the Soroptimist organization chooses the candidates for each of the three awards. They submit a list of names of those who might be good candidates and they choose from there. As the spotlight continues to shine on women’s issues, Weingroff noted that “it’s nice to know that there are women out there empowering other women.”

Stafford’s Gesicki Drafted By Miami Dolphins

Here is Muench’s full analysis of Gesicki: vertical jump (41 1/2 inches), broad jump Strengths: “What he’s better at than the guys (129.0 inches), three-cone drill (6.76 seconds), 20-yard shuttle (4.1 seconds) and the 60-yard ahead of him is his ability to come down with 50-50 balls.

anyone on the field to come down with it.” Weaknesses: “It’s going to be his blocking. It’s interesting, too, though. We gave him an average on big-play ability, but it’s funny when you watch him on tape. He’s not as much of a big-play threat as you would think for a guy that size who runs a 4.54. That being said, he is a marginal blocker. He gets in the way, he gets into position and he can occupy his guy when he’s at his best. But he doesn’t have the strength to sustain. He’s not a guy who you’re going to line up in-line next to the offensive tackle in goal line or short yardage situations.” Summary: “He’s going to be a Day 2 guy. But it only takes one team in the first round to fall in love with him. There might be the one team that thinks this kid - that thinks you won’t find a 6-foot-5 5 tight end that runs this fast with all these measurements. All it takes is one team. I don’t see it happening, but I don’t think he’ll get out of the second day. We have him at a back-end second-round grade.” Gesicki is one of 18 NFL draftees who have reportedly signed an endorsement deal with Nike. Gesicki was one of the nation’s most highly-touted tight ends after earning four varsity letters for coach Chuck Donohue at Southern. He wound up as the Rams’ all-time leading pass receiver with 1,817 yards on 103 receptions with 16 touchdown catches. As a senior, he caught 33 passes for 530 yards and four touchdowns to earn Under Armour All-America, all-state and first-team all-shore honors. Gesicki played in the U.S. Army All-American Game following his senior season. He hauled in 50 passes for 954 yards and nine touchdowns as a junior when he was named first-team all-shore. As a sophomore, he caught 16 passes for 276 yards and three touchdowns to help the Rams to an 8-2 overall record and the school’s first Shore Conference divisional title, Class A South, since 1972. As a sophomore defender, he made 23 tackles and picked off six passes. He was rated as a four-star recruit by Rivals Scout and 247Sports and a three-star prospect by ESPN. He was rated as the top tight end recruit in the Class of 2014 by 247Sports and was ranked as a Top 15 tight end prospect nationally by ESPN, Rivals and Scout. He was also rated a Top 15 recruit in New Jersey by ESPN, Rivals and 247Sports. Fierro said Gesicki’s name was on the lips of Patriot League and Ivy League schools because of his football prowess. “They were real interested in Mike,” Fierro said. “He had a breakout year as a sophomore in football. Prior to his sophomore year, his primary focus and love was basketball. During a workout when Mike was a freshman, he and I sat and talked and I said, ‘What is your dream?’ He said, ‘I want to play basketball for the University of North Carolina.’ He was a floppy haired freshman and I kind of laughed.” Gesicki saw varsity action at wide receiver and punter for the most part. The Rams toyed with installing Gesicki as their starting freshman quarterback at the varsity level. However, they chose Daniel Higgins, who starred for the Rams and enjoyed a record-setting career at Bridgewater State. “I spent a lot of time breaking down film with Mike from the quarterback perspective,” Fierro said. “During the first couple of repetitions, he jumped off the page as a wide receiver as a sophomore and he received all of this immediate attention from colleges. Bucknell worked him out. Princeton worked him out. Princeton showed a great interest and tried to also push him toward basketball. Duke offered
him a full ride for football. Mike Krzyzewski (Duke men’s basketball coach) said, ‘If you come here for football, I will have a spot for you on the basketball team.’ “ Fierro said he enjoyed coaching Gesicki and Higgins. “For us to have the best quarterback in school history lining up with an NFL threat on the outside was pretty neat,” Fierro said. “We could not have done it without Dan. We could not have done it without Mike. It was like what came first - the chicken or the egg?” Gesicki wound up choosing Penn State over numerous other schools, including Wisconsin, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Stanford and Duke. “In the end, it came down to Ohio State and Penn State,” Fierro said. Gesicki also starred in boys basketball and boys volleyball for the Rams, earning a total of 12 varsity letters in the two sports. He ended his career as the Rams’ all-time leading scorer in basketball with 1,867 points. He was named the Most Valuable Player of the East/West Basketball All-Star Game and won the 2014 state dunk contest. During Gesicki’s senior season, the Rams pinned an upset loss as time expired in the fourth quarter on host Atlantic City - annually one of the state’s top teams - in the quarterfinals of the NJSIAA South Jersey Group IV Tournament in 2014. He broke Southern’s career scoring record in the game. “It blows me away to watch all of the dunks and athletic plays that Mike made while he was here,” Fierro said. “We talked about the big game factor and he played hard in every game whether it was Tuesday night or Saturday morning or Saturday night. We walked into packed gyms that wanted to see the Gesicki show and the Southern Rams.” He led the Rams to the NJSIAA state title and was named the 2013 New Jersey Player of the Year in boys volleyball Hard work helped Gesicki get to where he is today. During a break in the action of the NJSIAA volleyball tournament, Gesicki’s teammates dashed to a convenience store for food. Gesicki had none of that - he spent a large part of the lull lifting weights in the Rams’ gym. Fierro recalled his basketball team’s trip to play at Walt Disney World in Orlando during Gesicki’s senior year. “He broke out a two-pound bag of white powder that was protein,” Fierro said. “I asked him what it was for and he said, ‘Coach, there has to be a gym somewhere so that I can lift.’ He would not miss his lifting session. He got to his two-a-day lifting sessions.” Fierro said Gesicki makes it a point to visit the Rams’ football and boys basketball teams despite his busy schedule. “Each time he is home, the first place he stops is to see our teams,” Fierro said. “If he is home, he makes it a point to come to our youth football and basketball camps. He spoke to all of our basketball campers last summer during our first week of camp. “Mike keeps in touch. He could have gone to a lot of different high schools. For him to stay at Southern shows where the priorities of Mike and his family are.” Gesicki is the third Southern player coached by Donohue to be selected in the draft. He joins Glenn Carson and Clark Harris. Carson starred at linebacker at Penn State and was chosen by the Arizona Cardinals. Harris, who sparkled at Rutgers University, is the Cincinnati Bengals’ long snapper. Harris played in the Pro Bowl - the NFL all-star game - earlier this year.

Sexually Transmitted Infection Alert: FQHCs & Partners Help Spread Awareness
NEW JERSEY – Ocean Health Initiatives, (OHI), the New Jersey Primary Care Association, (NJPCA), the New Jersey Department of Health, and LabCorp hosted a press conference today to highlight Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) Awareness Month. At the press conference, a patient advocate who was diagnosed with an STI shared her experience. Assemblyman Eric Houghtaling from New Jersey’s 11th district attended the press conference. Representatives from UnitedHealthcare, Amerigroup NJ, WellCare NJ, the Family Planning Center of Ocean County, Planned Parenthood, New Jersey Family Planning League, and other organizations were also in attendance. The press conference alerted the public to the importance of STI testing, which is available at Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs). “It is important that the members of the community and patients of FQHC’s are made aware of the resources available to them. Providing accessible treatment options and starting the conversation about STI Awareness can go a long way towards prevention. I am honored that we are able to host this press conference at our Lakewood Health Center and bring a united platform straight to our patient population,” said Dr. Theresa Berger, President and CEO of OHI. NJPCA and its partners are highlighting STI Awareness Month by distributing materials on the importance of testing for chlamydia and gonorrhea. In 2016, as reported by the New Jersey Department of Health, there were over 41,000 confirmed cases of chlamydia and gonorrhea in the State. “The New Jersey Primary Care Association has launched a statewide effort in recognition of April as STI Awareness Month. We are highlighting the month by emphasizing the importance of testing for chlamydia and gonorrhea. Federally Qualified Health Centers regularly provide materials in their ongoing commitment to test and treat patients. NJPCA developed this campaign to bring attention to the fact if left undetected and untreated, STIs can cause serious health consequences,” said Jillian Hudspeth, President and CEO of NJPCA. To help bring attention to the importance of testing for FQHC patients, NJPCA developed a campaign to relay this information through visible print materials and social media. “STI Awareness month is a great opportunity to talk about the importance of screening and open communication between providers and patients,” said Amelia Hamarman, M.S.Ed., M.S., Assistant STD Program Manager, New Jersey Department of Health. “The New Jersey Department of Health is pleased to support the NJPCA’s campaign. Community Health Centers provide essential services that protect the health of their patients and the communities in which they live.” The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 20 million new sexually transmitted infections occur every year in the United States. There were 1,598,354 cases of chlamydia reported in
2016 and 468,514 cases reported of gonorrhea. Nationwide, STIs account for almost $16 billion in health care costs annually. “We applaud the NJPCA, Ocean Health Initiatives, and Federally Qualified Health Centers across the state for their excellent work to meet the health care needs of the people they serve,” said Jane Yang, M.D., Medical Science Liaison for LabCorp Diagnostics. “This STI Awareness Campaign is a great way to help more people understand the importance of screening for STIs, the available treatment options, and how to reduce the risk of transmission of STIs.” Antibiotics can cure chlamydia and gonorrhea. However, left untreated, these infections can put men, women, and infants at risk for serious health impacts like chronic pain, severe reproductive health complications, and HIV. Without treating the infection, women can be put at increased risk for pelvic inflammatory disease, which may result in chronic pelvic pain, infertility, and potentially a life-threatening ectopic pregnancy. It is estimated that undiagnosed STDs cause infertility in more than 20,000 women each year. At 25 years old, Lauren from North Carolina was diagnosed with chlamydia – a common STI that can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease, which can cause infertility when left untreated. “I cried when I received my positive test results,” said Lauren. “I felt a lot of shame, and I never thought I would’ve have been ‘that person’ who gets an STI.” Because she was tested, Lauren was able to receive treatment with an antibiotic. “Getting an STI is human, it’s common, so we need to start having real conversations especially with our friends to normalize testing and protect our sexual health.” Her experience has led her to advocate and empower young adults. She is an ambassador for the American Sexual Health Association (ashasexualhealth.org). Most women with gonorrhea do not have any symptoms, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Even when a woman has symptoms, they are often mild and can be mistaken for a bladder or vaginal infection. Some men with gonorrhea may have no symptoms at all. In rare situations, untreated gonorrhea can also spread to a patient’s blood or joints. This condition can be life-threatening. “STD testing, treatment, and prevention is a core part of Planned Parenthood’s health care services and education efforts,” said Christine Sadovy, Legislative and Political Director for Planned Parenthood of Northern, Central, and Southern New Jersey. “We believe that all people should be able to access high-quality, affordable reproductive health care services, including STD testing and treatment, and we are proud to help all New Jerseyans access that care.” It is important for patients to know that if they are diagnosed with an STI, it can be treated with medicine and some can be cured entirely. To learn more about the STI Awareness Month and how to schedule an appointment, please call OHI at 732-363-6655. The event was held at OHI’s Lakewood Health Center, 101 Second Street in Lakewood, New Jersey.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of May 5 - May 11
By Jeraldine Saunders
ARIES (Mar 21-Apr. 19): Know when
to hold ‘em, know when to fold ‘em. Your best bet for success is to play it safe and not to take any unnecessary chances. It may be best to follow the lead of someone with more experience or enthusiasm this week. TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20): Be compassionate. It may seem like no great task to take pity on someone in need, but karma will be repaid in kind. Purchasing an attractive item this week may hold some long-lasting aesthetic value. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Grab hold of the reins. A loved one may have more enthusiasm than common sense, so it falls to you to steer them in the right direction. Think of the consequences before letting a wandering eye get the best of you. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t force the issue. The end result may be lackluster if your heart isn’t in it, so put off new projects and initiatives until the middle of the week. Check the numbers carefully as a financial situation may not be in your favor. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Maintain the courage of your conviction. Don’t allow your opinions to be changed simply because it makes other people feel better. Unless there is concrete evidence to the contrary, stick with what you believe this week. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Let simple logic be your guide. Deductive reasoning can be the key to solving difficult problems this week even when others question your methods. A loved one may try to read between the lines when there is nothing to be read.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22.): We are what
we are. You may be the only one who notices your minor flaws and imperfections, but you’ll certainly get attention if you try to conceal them. Don’t hold yourself to higher standards than others this week. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You may have to give a little to get a little. There may be no alternative to getting your way other than making a minor sacrifice. In the upcoming week, the ends may truly justify the means. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Take things seriously. It may be a temptation to make light of a situation, but in the week ahead others may not appreciate the humor. Debating opposing viewpoints right now may not be appropriate. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Accidents happen. Focus on picking up the pieces after a minor disaster rather than trying to assign blame this week. Nothing will be gained from being negative. You can easily discern what is tasteful and what is junk. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Don’t restrict yourself with limits. Resolve to accomplish whatever you set out to do and the possibilities will become endless in the week ahead. Sharing your thoughts with a loved one may yield pleasant results. PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar. 20): Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. If you are willing to overlook someone’s faults and shortcomings, they’ll do the same for you. Focus on a distinct direction in the week ahead and you can realize a tangible goal.

Raise The Steaks: Master An Elegant Dinner In No Time By Wolfgang Puck PAN-SEARED BEEF FILETS WITH PORT-DIJON-CREAM SAUCE Serves 4 4 filets mignons steaks, each about 6 ounces (185 g), trimmed of excess fat Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1/2 cup (125 mL) port wine 1/2 cup (125 mL) heavy cream 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces 1 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley or chives Sprinkle both sides of each steak evenly with salt and pepper to taste. Over high heat, heat a heavy skillet or saute pan large enough to hold the steaks comfortably. Add the oil and, as soon as you see the slightest wisps of smoke, carefully add the steaks.
Cook the steaks undisturbed for 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, turning them carefully with tongs. (For well-done steaks, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for a few minutes more on each side.) When done, transfer the steaks to a heated platter and cover with aluminum foil to keep them warm while you make the sauce. Carefully pour off excess fat from the skillet and return the skillet to high heat. Add the port, and scrape with a wooden spoon to deglaze the pan deposits. Turn down the heat so that the liquid in the skillet isn’t boiling, and then stir in the cream. Simmer the mixture briskly until it is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 3 to 4 minutes longer. Whisk in the mustard and, a piece at a time, the butter. Adjust the seasoning to taste, if necessary, with a little salt and pepper. Transfer the steaks to individual heated serving plates. Stir the juices that have collected on the platter into the sauce. Spoon the sauce over and around the steaks, garnish with parsley or chives, and serve immediately.
