732-213-3063 – “BEAT THE HEAT”

WOW!

By Jennifer Peacock LAKEHURST – A controversial land use ordinance may not be voted upon at the next council meeting, but it will be discussed. The Borough Council previously tabled an ordinance that would amend its highway commercial zoning district to include assisted living residences and behavioral medical detox centers. The ordinance was scheduled for first reading at the borough’s regular Aug. 16 meeting. Councilwoman Patricia Hodges, who sits on the council’s ordinance review committee, was the one who asked that it be tabled in order for questions to first be answered. “Most ordinances that we do are pretty self-explanatory,” Hodges said in a phone call with The Manchester Times Aug. 21. “This one actually changes the zoning in the borough. …To change the zoning is something that we don’t ordinarily do. I was taken aback that there was absolutely no discussion about it before this ordinance was introduced, and the committee process wasn’t used to develop the ordinance. So, those were my concerns.” Hodges, along with Council President Steve Oglesby and Mayor Harry Robbins, met Aug. 22 as the ordinance committee to discuss ordinance 8-13, as well as other ordinances for consideration. Committee meetings are not open to the public, but Hodges said any findings will be presented at the next council meeting at 7:30 p.m. Sept. 6 at the Community Center, 207 Center St. She said in a text to The Manchester Times she’ll have a full report at that meeting. “I want to know what incident or what question generated the need to revise the [zoning]. I wasn’t really given a (Detox - See Page 5)

program. She replaces Dr. Stacie Ferrara, who took a principal job in Brick. “I am honored and excited for this opportunity to be vice principal at Manchester Township High School,” Thiffault said. In addition to a new vice principal, the high school has a new partnership with Ocean County College, which will allow students to receive dual credit for coursework. While taking high school classes, they would also count toward college credit. The school also added advanced placement courses in computer science, human geography and STEM, bringing the total to 18 AP courses. Manchester Township Middle School Staff will implement “Fit Fridays,” a health and wellness initiative that has them sharing activities with students once a month. Students will also have new fourth-quarter elective options: drama/theater arts and contemporary music. It’s an opportunity for students who can’t participate in band, chorus or the drama club productions to experience theater and music. In terms of physical upgrades, Bruzaitis said new doors will replace old gates in several areas of the property. A new safety fence across the front parking lot will prevent pedestrians from crossing out of the crosswalk. There is much needed additional parking in the rear of the building now.

Whiting School The old office has moved into the front of the building, using space that used to be a STEM lab. “The work was done by our own buildings and grounds department and it looks amazing,” Principal Evelyn Swift said. “They did an outstanding job.” A new STEAM lab will be built in the old office area using a $15,000 grant from the Manchester Township Education Association.

The school is in the process of building a garden space in their outdoor pavilion, using money from a $10,000 PSEG/Sustainable Jersey for Schools grant. “In addition, Mrs. Swift said that Whiting School is proud to have achieved Bronze status in the Sustainable Jersey for Schools program. She explained that the school had to go through a series of action steps like having a recycling program, offering lessons on sustainability, installing water fountains that fill reusable bottles, having a no idling zone, and monitoring heat, pollution, and air quality,” Bruzaitis said. “They will receive their award at the NJ School Boards convention in October.”

“We are taking a holistic approach to take care of our students and staff,” Principal Nikki Mazur said. The all-purpose room got an upgrade of new, colorful lunch tables with individual seating. The new seating is compliant with the Americans With Disabilities Act. Manchester Township Elementary School By way of comparison, the Banner Desert Medical Center in Mesa, Arizona, has 16 intensive care nurses who are pregnant at once. The elementary school doesn’t have quite that many, but this year there are seven long-term substitutes covering for maternity leave. The school also welcomed one new teacher to its staff. “Principal Linda Waldron said the school will focus on character education and will use the book ‘Wonder’ to explore themes such as inclusion and mindfulness. The school’s Broadcast News club will add yoga to their morning in-school broadcast,” Bruzaitis shared. “In addition, thanks to a $15,000 grant from the Manchester Township Educational Foundation, MTES will be creating a new STEAM (science, technology, engineering, and math) lab this year. Mrs. Waldron said classes will also be using their outdoor learning garden this fall.” Regional Day School Bruzaitis reported that Principal Lisa Michallis said the school will be expanding their use of technology this year with new smart projectors and computers. They’ll also be exploring character education with the new “Color Our School with Kindness” initiative.

Continued From Page 1 satisfactory answer, so I asked to have it tabled,” Hodges said. “…Who is suggesting we need this ordinance, and what is the impetus for changing the zoning?” None of this means the ordinance will be back on the agenda for Sept. 6 or any time soon, although interested residents should keep a watch for it on the borough’s website, which posts meeting agendas. The ordinance, if introduced again, would have to be reintroduced for first reading. Although the public can comment on any issue during the open public comment time toward the end of council meetings, public comments are not allowed on the first reading of an ordinance. The ordinance would “establish appropriate zoning for residential medical detoxification centers to permit such uses consistent with the New Jersey’s Legislature’s recognition that substance abuse treatment facilities are appropriate in some zoning districts but not others…” If the ordinance moves forward at some point, it would allow for assisted living residences, continuing care communities, residential medical detoxification centers, and behavioral health care facilities on lots at least two acres large. The zoning would be amended “west of Center Street and front of Route 70.” The facility could only house up to 50 in-patient persons. The Manchester Times reached out to

The Manchester Times, September 1, 2018, Page 5 Martin Lynch, the borough’s tax assessor, to ask how many existing two-acre lots were in the one-square-mile borough. Lynch responded in an Aug. 22 email that the information is not readily available, but could be researched by coming into the tax office. Social media chatter jumped on La Bove Grande, a restaurant and banquet hall started by brothers Jerry and Luigi Bove in 1989. The restaurant sits at the wester n circle at Union Avenue and Route 70. Accordi ng to NJParcels.com, the restaurant sits on a 2.73-acre commercially-zoned lot. “If someone is interested in it and that is going through the motions, but as of right now, we’re still in business for a long time,” Jerry Bove told The Manchester Times. He declined to comment further. It’s unclear if any plans are for the entire property, or part of the property. According to the borough website’s Land Use information, “the area of the Borough of Lakehurst west of the railroad tracks is under the jurisdiction of the Pinelands Commission. Any application or development in this area requires a Certificate of Filing from the Pinelands Commission, before the application can be heard by the Land Use Board.” No one from the borough’s land use board was available. A call to the Pinelands Commission was not returned as of press time. Lifelong Lakehurst resident Joseph

–Photo by Jason Allentoff Social media chatter was active saying that the La Bove Grande Restaurant would be sold and used for a detox facility. At this point, this is just a rumor. Steuber Jr. started a petition at Change. org to stop a detoxification facility from being built in the borough. Burglaries and taxes will increase while home values will plummet, he said. “First off I’m not opposed to a rehabilitation center. I’m opposed to it being put in Lakehurst. It will most likely be a for profit clinic which means they will fill the beds with people from all over based on ability to pay, leaving residents of our town

and surrounding towns who don’t have the ability to pay without access to help,” Steuben said. “The other issue is the outpatient section. This will turn Lakehurst into a hub for addicts. Being such a small town and the fact that it is a walking school district it poses a safety concern.” Hodges said she did not bring up La Bove Grande at the council meeting, and anything about building any detox facility is speculation at this point.

Capitol Comments Senator Cory Booker

WASHINGTON, D.C – As the 2018-19 school year gets underway, U.S. Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ), along with U.S. Senators Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), Jeff Merkley (D-OR), Doug Jones (D-AL), Kamala Harris (D-CA), and Catherine Cortez Masto (DNV), re-introduced a bill to streamline the financial aid application process for

graduate and undergraduate students, in an effort to help more underserved students have access to financial aid and attend college. The Simplifying Financial Aid for Students Act of 2018 would simplify the FAFSA form, making it more accessible and easier to complete for low-income students by greatly reducing the number of questions a student

would need to answer if she or he is a recipient of a means-tested program and by increasing the number of questions based on tax filing characteristics. “We know that when a student completes the federal financial aid form, he or she is more likely to receive aid, attend college, and graduate from college,” Booker said. “But sadly, less than half of today’s high school students complete the form, and students from underserved backgrounds complete the form at even lower rates than their peers. We must make the process of obtaining aid

Governor TRENTON - Governor Phil Murphy signed A2187 into law. Known as “Jake’s Law,” the bill incentivizes counties to build inclusive playgrounds for children and adults with disabilities. The term “Jake’s Law” refers to Jake’s Place, a playground in Cherry Hill, which was created in honor of Jacob Cummings-Nasto, who passed away due to complications of heart surgery at the age of two and a half. He was born with hypoplastic heart syndrome and the park was a preferred place for physical

Feds Must Work Efficiently To Build New VA Hospital The federal government needs to work quickly, but intelligently, to build a new Veterans Administration clinic in Ocean County. It’s been said that some things on the government level move at a snail’s pace. The larger the bureaucracy, the slower it goes. So, if that’s true, then we probably won’t see a new VA hospital finished in Ocean County for a decade. After all, a location still has to be picked. Needs assessed. Plans drawn up and approved. I expect that the county – and whatever local municipality winds up hosting it – will expedite all approvals so that they don’t provide any speed

bumps along the route. I’m more worried about the federal government. I don’t think anyone would want the Veterans Administration to rush into a project and make mistakes, but I think I speak for everyone when I urge them to be efficient in the process. They must make a concerted effort to choose the perfect spot for veterans. They must build a facility that can truly address the needs of an aging population in Ocean County. And they must do it without wasting money. It’s an enormous undertaking, and I hope they realize how important it is. Chris Lundy News Editor

In Response To Attempts To Charge Trump With Treason

After reading Mr. Molinari’s opinion I thought that I might give him some of the suggestions that he asked for. First and foremost, the definition of treason in terms of any federally elected official is defined by the United States Constitution, not by Webster’s Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary, or any dictionary for that matter, and it reads as follows: “Treason against the United

States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.” The author also cited Article II, Section 4 of the US Constitution, which is known as the Disqualification Clause that enumerates what a sitting US president can be impeached for, which is “treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.” Mr. Molinari’s opinion sug-

mitted treason by aiding and comforting “Putin’s Russia.” He did not elaborate on exactly what that entailed, but we might assume that it has to do with collusion since that was the reason that the special prosecutor has put in place. What must be understood here is that even if there was some sort of collusion on Trump’s part, that doing so is not an illegal act, and even if it was, the act would have happened while Trump was a candidate for office, not as a sitting President of the United States, so it’s questionable as to whether a president can be impeached for something that was done prior to being sworn in. What has also been lost in all of the noise is that Russia, while not exactly an ally of the United States, is not officially considered an enemy as is Iran or North Korea, thus one could not give aid or comfort to Russia under the Constitutional definition of treason. In terms of sedition, once again Mr. Molinari is incorrect since sedition, which isn’t mentioned anywhere in the Constitution, is considered constitutionally protected free speech and is in no way illegal (SEE: Brandenburg v. Ohio [1969]), and thus does not qualify as a high crime or misdemeanor. If Mr. Molinari would like to see an example of aiding and comforting the enemy he might want to look at the previous president, who, under cover of the night, gave billions of dollars over to Iran without consulting congress, and he also gave them the ability to make nuclear weapons by allowing that country to properly refine uranium, all the while its leaders were calling for the death of America and threatening Israel with nuclear annihilation. Iran is considered by most civilized countries around the world to be the leader in terrorism as it funds the various factions around the planet to aid them in their endeavors, yet Mr. Obama

idea to give Iran nuclear capabilities, and that somehow that deter them from using the technology to make nuclear bombs. Bill Clinton said the same thing about North Korea, and of course we know the history of how that worked out. President Obama also committed a high crime when he signed an Executive Order called the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), which effectively made law, something that presidents are expressly forbidden to do. Only congress can make law. The president can only agree to it and sign it or veto it. If we were to use the dictionary’s definition of treason as described by Mr. Molinari as being “the offense of acting to overthrow one’s government,” then again he might want to look to the former Administration since evidence has shown that it used the FBI, DOJ, and the IRS to spy on innocent US citizens, and as a means of throwing the presidential election in favor of Hillary Clinton. If colluding with Russia was the crime that the Democrats claim that it is, then both the Clinton campaign and the DNC would be guilty of it since they colluded with a British agent, who colluded with Russian agents, who then sold them a dossier of completely false information meant to discredit Donald Trump. In effect they colluded with another country to manipulate the results of the election. If ever there has been a more blatant acts of treason, sedition, disloyalty, and treachery against our government I would like to see that case. In conclusion, there is no evidence or proof that President Trump has levied war against the United States, given aid or comfort to any enemy, and nor has he in any way committed any act of treason or committed any high crimes or misdemeanors, because if he did it is likely that the Mueller investigation would have brought that out by now if for no

other reason than it would be compelled to tell Congress that impeachment should move forward immediately, and even if that wasn’t the case, given the enormous amounts of leaks that have come from the office of that special prosecution, there is no way something that big would not have gotten out by now. So, my suggestion to Mr. Molinari is that instead of picking up a dictionary he should perhaps consider taking a course in basic civics, which might set him straight on how our Democrat Republic works as outlined in our Constitution that sets the Rule of Law.

Freeholders Should Pay Legal Fees On Dec. 8, 2017, Monmouth County defendants, which includes Freeholders Thomas Arnone, Lillian Burry, former Freeholder Gary Rich, and former Freeholder, now Assemblywoman Serena DiMaso, were found to be in Contempt of Court and sanctioned for their willful and intentional violation of a court order entered by the Hon. Brian R. Martinotti, United States District Judge for the District of New Jersey. The Court found that their arguments that the valid court order restricted their First Amendment rights and that they were afforded absolute immunity for their conduct to be without merit. In his decision, the Hon. Brian R. Martinotti quoted the Third Circuit Court of Appeals: “A fundamental principle of the legal system is that all orders and judgments of courts must be complied with promptly.” This order was entered in open court, with the consent of Freeholder Arnone, Freeholder Burry, Assemblywoman DiMaso, and former Freeholder Gary Rich, whose attorney appeared

on their behalf. In fact, the Court found that “sealing the report was necessary,” and ordered it to remain sealed. Notwithstanding this valid court order, Freeholder Arnone, Freeholder Burry, Assemblywoman DiMaso, and former Freeholder Gary Rich proceeded to make public statements and allow for portions of the sealed document to be read out loud at a public hearing of the Freeholders. Due to their flagrant violation of the Court’s Order, the County Defendants have been ordered by the Court to pay the legal fees and costs associated with bringing this conduct to the attention of the Court. The Court stated that the County Defendants “do not deny they have revealed portions of the contents of the Report and cannot at this point undo what has been done,” and the Court properly imposed monetary sanctions for their egregious conduct. As Freeholders, Thomas Arnone, Lillian Burry, Serena DiMaso, and Gary Rich represented the citizens of this county in a position of public trust. In so serving, they took an oath in which they swore to support the constitution of this state, the Constitution of the United States, and the law generally. By violating a valid order, they violated that sacred oath and the public’s trust. I hereby call for the public censure of Freeholder Arnone, Freeholder Burry, former Freeholder Rich, and Assemblywoman DiMaso for their conduct. The Monmouth County taxpayers should not have to pay for their willful and intentional misconduct. Freeholder Arnone, Freeholder Burry, Assemblywoman DiMaso, and former Freeholder Rich should reimburse the county for having to pay legal fees and costs that were ordered by the Court. Should they refuse, they must resign from their office for placing this burden on the shoulders of our taxpayers. Freeholder John P. Curley

–Photo courtesy Manchester Police MANCHESTER – It is with great pride that Chief Lisa Parker and the Manchester Township Police Department congratulate the graduates of the 2018 Youth Police Academy, the fourth class to successfully complete the program. Held from August 13-16, 21 students from grades 6, 7 and 8 were introduced to the law enforcement profession and taught what it means to be a police officer through hands-on demonstrations and activities. Led by School Resource Officer Christopher Cerullo, the youth cadets engaged in a variety of activities each day showing them different aspects of law enforcement. “I saw a great group of cadets learn and demonstrate the principles of discipline, leadership, and dedication,” said Chief Lisa Parker. “These cadets should be commended for the hard work they put forth. It says a lot about their character that they decided to dedicate a week of their summer vacation to such a worthwhile program.” The youth cadets were taught the history of the Manchester Township Police Department, interacted with Ocean County

Police Academy cadets during a tour at their Lakewood facility, saw SWAT and K-9 demonstrations, and learned about physical fitness, fi rst aid and traffic safety. “We’re able to teach these cadets about what we as officers do on a daily basis,” said SRO Cerullo. “Just as importantly, we connect with them and show them that behind the badge, we’re regular people. This helps us to build relationships and let them know that we are always here anytime they need assistance.” On August 16, the youth cadets celebrated their accomplishments with a graduation ceremony and pizza party where Chief Parker and SRO Cerullo addressed the class, family and friends. Helping to make the Youth Police Academy possible were Sgt. Bryan Vidovich, Detective Adam Emmons, Ptl. Charles Gatnarek, Ptl. Steve Wendruff, Ptl. Joseph Reilly, Ptl. Keith Craig, Ptl. Conner Yatauro, Ptl. Victoria Raub, the Ocean County Police Academy, Ocean County SWAT, New Jersey State Police Aviation Unit, Ocean County Fire Academy, and Ocean County Sheriff’s Office.

Childhood Hearing Loss…And Bullying? Add bullying to the list of reasons to keep kids’ hearing health in top shape. Hearing-impaired youth of school age appear to be bullied more than their typical-hearing counterparts, per a University of Texas at Dallas study published in the journal of Exceptional Children. The study, “Effect of Hearing Loss on Peer Victimization in School-Age Children,” surveyed 87 participants ages 7 to 18 who wore hearing aids or cochlear implants and found that: • Nearly half of respondents – compared to approximately 28% of adolescents in the general population – reported being bullied. • The nature of the bullying experienced by hearing-impaired youth mirrored what their peers with other special needs have faced. • Hearing-impaired youth were even more likely to report feeling socially excluded – over 25% of respondents compared to 5% of youth generally.

These findings parallel published reports of fewer invitations to social events, lower quantity and quality of friendships, and higher loneliness in children and adolescents with hearing loss “shared the study’s authors in a UT Dallas news release. Auditory-based communication diff iculties can lead to missed jokes, conversation gaps, or other challenges affecting peer relationships, researchers speculated in the news release. Added investigator Andrea War ner-Czyz, Ph.D. “Friendships are important to most young people, but I believe they are especially important to children with hearing loss. Anything parents can do to facilitate social interaction and friendship and letting them learn how to be a friend and who is a friend is critical.” Hearing loss among youth goes largely unaddressed. Is a hearing test on your checklist? Call us to schedule complimentary hearing screenings for the whole family today!

Dr. Izzy and his staff are always available to answer most of your questions regarding your hearing health. His ofﬁces are in Toms River, Whiting, and Manahawkin. He can be reached at 732-818-3610 or via Web site at gardenstatehearing.com. Expanded Whiting Hours!

Children May Develop High Blood Pressure

NEW JERSEY – Despite popular belief, teens, children and even babies can have high blood pressure, also called HBP or hypertension. It’s not just a disease for the middle-aged and elderly. As with adults, early diagnosis and treatment can reduce or prevent the harmful consequences of this disease, including hear t and kidney disease. This May, National High Blood Pressure Awareness Month and American Stroke Month, the American Stroke Association wants you to check your child’s health. When it comes to blood pressure in children, “normal” is relative. It depends on three factors: gender, age and height. Your child’s doctor can tell you what’s right for your child, because “normal” is a complicated calculation based on these factors. What leads to HBP in children? There may be many factors that can include: Diseases including heart and kidney disease Some medications Family history Excess weight or obesity

Race, particularly African-Americans are at an increased risk Visiting your pediatrician to discuss treatment options is vital in controlling HBP. As in adults, HBP in children is typically managed with lifestyle changes, including: Enjoying a heart-healthy diet Participating in regular physical activity Managing weight The doctor may also prescribe medication if an appropriate diet and regular physical activity don’t bring the high blood pressure under control.

Cayenne Stopped My Bleeding In 30 Seconds

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

You read all kinds of things on Dr. Google, eh? For sure I do while I’m researching what I’m going to write for you each week. I read some interesting articles last year which I made a mental note of. One was about cayenne pepper and how it could stop bleeding. I stored this fascinating detail in the back of my mind, should I ever cut myself again in the kitchen… which tends to happen more frequently than I care to admit. It came to pass one night when I was in a hurry again. I cut myself on an onion. The month before it was from cutting bread with a serrated knife that slipped. As a writer, you’d think I’d wear gloves or slow down! I did my usual things: • Held my arm above my head • Put an ice cube on it • Took a Tylenol to dull the aftermath pain • Squeezed my finger • Wrapped it in a cold, wet towel • Ran around the house yelling, “I’m bleeding!” • Prayed • Found Sam and whined that I was in a hurry again • Promised myself I would slow down in the kitchen • Swore like a trucker Nothing worked this time, the bleeding was pretty ugly. But then I remembered the cayenne pepper stories that I read on Dr. Google (lol!) and found a bottle of cayenne liquid extract in my supplement cabinet. It’s sold with a dropper. I drew up a dropperful

of this, closed my eyes and waited for the burn, then squeezed it onto my bleeding finger. Nothing happened. I tried again. It was an epic fail. Then I thought of using the actual cayenne pepper and rummaged around my spice cabinet to find my cayenne pepper (powdered). Mind you, I’m doing this all left-handed because my husband Sam was too freaked out and more in favor of driving me to an urgent care center. But I’m a little doctor-phobic, so instead, I dumped a generous amount of cayenne pepper onto a paper towel. Here’s where I found my bravery SNP, because as this is happening, I’m noodling this thought, “Who in their right mind would literally pour cayenne pepper onto a painful, oozing cut?” After 30 minutes of fussing with it, feeling like I have nothing to lose at this point, I went ahead and did the unthinkable. I dipped it! It stung, no lie. So for the first 15 seconds, I continued ONLY with the last 2 bullets (see above). By second 30, the bleeding had almost completely stopped! I couldn’t believe it. Cayenne pepper has been studied for its medicinal actions on prostate or breast cancer, multiple myeloma, migraines, psoriasis, neuropathy and more. I’ll share more details if you sign up for my free newsletter. Peppers are a nightshade so if you’re allergic to those, please avoid. In the meantime, you should start sprinkling cayenne pepper onto your eggs and avocado toast. Keep it in a safe place in case you need it for a minor finger cut.

US Coast Guard Hosts Open House In Barnegat Light

By William Clanton BARNEGAT LIGHT – Many locals and vacationers alike seem to forget about the U.S. Coast Guard presence here on Long Beach Island and what they do locally. The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla 7-12 of Barnegat Light recently held their annual open house, opening their doors to the public. Families, beach goers, bike riders and island

vacationers all made their way into the open parking lot of Barnegat Light Coast Guard station for the event on August 15. Just fewer than 700 people were in attendance, an impressive turn out. The Coast Guard proudly showed off their skills through several demonstrations and valuable safety and environmental information for residents and boaters. Part of Flotilla 12’s mission

is to better inform residents and boaters about being safe in and around the Barnegat Bay. They also handed out brochures about boating safety, keeping a clean environment, and other topics. They featured personal flotation device fittings and free life jackets that were raffled off every hour. They also raffled off a U.S.C.G. watch, a large framed photo of Barnegat Light and a wooden model of the Coast Guard Academy’s

famed training vessel, the Eagle. The open house event also featured an air rescue demonstration just over the water, a flare demonstration, and a drone flotation device deployment demonstration, provided by the Long Beach Police Department. There was also t-shirt sales, hot dogs, cold drinks, and plenty of things to entertain both children and adults. Docked nearby in the waters of the Barnegat Bay were 2 pairs of Coast Guard boats that were completely open to the public to tour, inspect and learn more about them inside and out. Members of the Coast Guard stood on board either of the ships, telling stories, answering questions and teaching people about their ships. Aside from the impressive ships, demonstrations and organizations, there was another attraction that caught the eyes of the children. It was a Marine Safety Damage Control Simulator run by the Coast Guard. The simulator featured pipes with several cracks and visible breaches. The operator (Petty Officer 3rd Class, Corey Smith) would then open specific values that would send water spraying out from the appendages. Whoever was inside had to use a combination of wooden wedges and a hammer to seal up the leaks before the “ship” filled with water. This simulation, usually on a bigger scale, helps trainees learn to act fast in damage control necessary situations. Whether they are repairing gaskets or stopping breaches. Of the many local members and participating organizations at the event there was: the Alliance for a Living Ocean, Jacques Cousteau of the National Estuarine Research Reserve, the “Black Sheep” Ocean Air Support Squadron from Lanoka Harbor, the Long Beach Township Police Department, the Conserve Wildlife Foundation of New Jersey, WBNJ 91.9 FM, local children’s book author Mary Clanton, the Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst-based USCG Atlantic Strike Team, Marine Field Station, Marine Fisheries Administration, and 10 Navy Sea Cadets. The open house was co-sponsored by division 7 of the U.S. Coast Guard. They have been in operation for roughly 75 years with well over 200 members. Flotilla 12 of Barnegat Light acts as an arm of the U.S.C.G. They perform vessel inspections, training, and the education of local residents through boating safety classes. They focus heavily on public safety and the awareness of the United States Coast Guard. The event was free and is held annually at the USCG Station in Barnegat Light at 601 Bayview Ave.

Inside The Law Is Your Property Being Properly Assessed?

this you must divide the assessment by the equalization ratio. For Marc S. Galella Esq. exa mple, a prop e rty that is assessed at $200,000.00 in a town where the equalization ratio is 96% would have a market value of $298,333.00. In another town where the equalization ratio is 86%, the town is showing that the market value is $232,558.00. In other words, to determine what the town is claiming as the property value you need to look at both the assessment and the equalization ratio. This number would then be the value to use in determining whether you should consider filing a tax appeal. For example, if your property is assessed by the town at $350,000 and your property has a market value of $360,000, you may think that you are being under-assessed and thus think it is not worthwhile to file a tax appeal. However, if the equalization ratio for your town is 84%, then your property value, as determined by the town, would be approximately $407,000. This means that the town is assessing your property for $47,000 more than its market value and a tax appeal may be an option. Because the laws and procedures regarding tax appeals are complicated, it is a good idea to retain the services of an attorney to assist you in filing and pursuing the appeal. R. C. Shea and Associates has a long history of obtaining reductions in tax assessments for our clients.

By Marc S. Galella, Esq., of R.C. Shea and Associates In a prior article, we talked about how the basis of a residential real estate tax appeal is whether the property is being assessed by the municipal tax assessor greater than the property’s true market value. One of the issues in making this determination is how the tax assessment established by tax assessor equates to the true value of the property. In all municipalities in New Jersey, there is what is called the “equalization ratio”. This is the number, expressed as a percentage, developed by the local County Tax Board to equalize the difference in tax assessments between the various towns in the county. The purpose of the equalization ratio is to ensure that each town pays it fair share of the county taxes. This imbalance occurs because towns reassess or revaluate their tax assessments at different times. Thus, a town that reassesses its real property assessments in the current year will have different real estate values than a town that reassessed four years ago. In a rising market, properties in the town that just reassessed would have higher values than those in a town that had not re-assessed. The equalization ratio for each town can be obtained from the Tax Board in each county or the municipal tax assessor. In Ocean County it is available on the website for the Ocean County Board of Taxation. Accordingly, you must look at the equalization ratio for your town and use that with the tax assessment to determine what the town is showing as the market value for the property. To do

Dear Joel

By Joel Markel

Rushing Holidays

Dear Joel, Happy Halloween! And while we’re at it, Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas! What is it with these stores?!?! Why do I want to shop for Christmas trees when I’m still using my beach chairs? I remember not too many years ago, you waited to see the holiday merchandise, now I really can’t remember what month it is half the time. Does this bother you? Answer: Oh my, I don’t want to sound like the Grinch, but yes, yes, yes. It really bothers me to see the stores rushing along the holidays. I feel like it takes away all the magic of the upcoming season and interrupts you enjoying t h e s e a s o n you’r e ex p e r ie n c i ng. SLOW DOWN, live in the moment, go

to the beach i n s u m me r, pick apples in the fall, and sip eggnog in the winter. I know there are many crafty-types who need to get an early start on their projects, but for the rest of us, we don’t need to be choosing Happy New Year’s hats in September. I can’t make it stop, but I can recommend that you pace yourself. Smell the roses, then the sun lotion, then the turkey, then the pine cones. Write to joel@preferredcares.com. His radio show, “Preferred Company” airs on Monday through Friday from 8 to 10 a.m. on preferredradio. com and 1160 & 1310 WOBM-AM

According to coordinator Suzanne Friend, Dr. Lygas “feels that conquering cancer not only needs a point of celebration but he also feels that he needs to give back to these women who put their trust in him.” These “Cancer Cruises” bring breast cancer survivors on a 40 foot sport fisherman boat for a cruise on the Manasquan and Metedeconk Rivers and Barnegat Bay. Special guests get not only an evening of fun, but also a make-over by Karan Geist, an esthetician at the Atlantic Club, a mas-

sage by Lynette Cupola and a meal at local restaurant Harpoon Willy’s for dinner. “One of the most traumatic events in a woman’s life is to be diagnosed with breast cancer. Many feel that they will not live to see children or grandchildren graduate marry or enjoy a long life with spouse or partner. Fortunately, with modern treatment of breast cancer these fears dissipate when their cure is achieved,” stated Lygas. For more information about the practice call 732-458-4600 or go to breastsurgeryandbreastoncology.com.

Staﬀord Creates Goals For Knocking Out Substance Abuse

By Kimberly Bosco STAFFORD – Stafford Township officials and members from the DART Prevention Coalition came together for a Substance Abuse Needs Assessment, to determine the most pressing needs of the township in terms of alcohol and drug use. Held at the Bay Avenue Community Center, the meeting brought together various individuals from the township’s Municipal Alliance, including Betti Anne McVey, Stafford Township Recreation Director. McVey explained that a needs assessment is performed every five years to reassess and address the township’s needs as they evolve with time. The previous assessment determined that underage drinking was the most popular issue in Stafford, she said. Also present at the meeting were numerous concerned residents and members from the DART Prevention Coalition of the Institute for Prevention and Recovery at RWJBarnabas Health. DART facilitated the needs assessment in order to gather local input that would help them work with the township to create accurate and helpful substance abuse prevention programs. “The DART Prevention Coalition focuses on preventing underage drinking, prescription drug abuse and the illegal use of marijuana and tobacco in Ocean County. DART is comprised of community leaders including law enforcement and government officials, educators, business owners, substance abuse professionals, clergy and youth,” according to Abigail Thompson of DART. DART has partnered with the Ocean County Health Department, LBI Health Department, Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office, and NJ National Guard Counterdrug Taskforce to conduct various needs assessments throughout the county. The township’s Municipal Alliance falls under the jurisdiction of the Ocean County Health Department, according to McVey. The county hopes to use the findings to not only create resources and prevention programs, but also to collect county-wide data on the substance abuse trends in the county. “The analysis of this information is securely released to towns and further release of this information is at the discretion of individual towns. Our needs assessment process includes a variety of methods, including community surveys, focus groups, and key informant interviews,” according to DART’s website. This facet of the needs assessment was simply a focus group discussion between township residents and officials as to what they all considered to be the most pressing needs in terms of drug and alcohol abuse. Sitting around a table in the community center, DART was able to collect information about Stafford’s substance abuse trends through resident’s shared personal experiences. While Officer Christopher Fritz of the Stafford Township Police Department noted that he believes underage drinking to remain the number one substance abuse issue in town, the residents spoke up about other concerns, including marijuana use and the increasing popularity of vape devices. With new substance abuse trends cropping up, such as JUULs (a kind of e-cigarette) among the younger generations, Thompson

noted that the county also performs smaller assessments within the five-year period between formal needs assessments to accurately track how certain trends are progressing over time. In order to address the consistent issue with underage drinking, Officer Fritz listed some of the programs already in place to educate kids about the dangers of substance abuse,

including the STYLE program in Southern Regional Middle School and High School; Second Step in 3rd-6th grades; Not Even Once in 11th and 12th grades; and Project Aware for elementary schools. Each of these programs addresses a different approach of substance abuse prevention in different age groups. Thompson noted that this meeting was just one facet of how DART goes about collecting

data for the needs assessment. The results will not be released until the county collects all the necessary data. If you were unable to attend the focus group, you can still participate in the needs assessment via an online community survey. Find the survey and more information about the process at ochd.org/alcohol-and-drugservices/.

Talking the Talk About Walking the Walk Use of Assistive Devices

By: Hillary Petetti, PT, In-Home Physical Therapist

eing able to walk is something that most people take for granted until they sustain an injury which prevents them from getting around. Think about all the times you walk during the day - even around your home: to the kitchen to get a snack, to the bathroom to take a shower, to the mailbox to pick up the circulars, to a family member to give them a hug. Now think about if you couldn’t do that. Many injuries result in pain, weakness, and loss of balance, all of which prevent walking without a high risk of falling and further injury. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE INJURED AND CANNOT SAFELY WALK ALONE?

Oftentimes your doctor or even your family member will recommend a walker or a cane, which in clinical terms are also known as assistive devices. The problem is that many people resist using them because they do not understand how to use them or they do not know which kind to use, as there are many different kinds of devices (e.g. standard walkers, rolling walkers, rollators, single point canes, narrow based quad canes, wide based quad canes). Unfortunately, just having a walker or a cane does not solve the problem. Sometimes people have the wrong device to suit their needs. For example, someone with very poor balance would require the greater support of a walker as opposed to a cane. Someone with a cardiac condition would require a walker with wheels as opposed to one without to decrease physical exertion

while walking. Using a device incorrectly can sometimes be just as dangerous as not using one at all. Sometimes people have the device set up wrong, for example, too high or too low. Using a walker that is set up too high can lead to shoulder injuries. Using a walker that is too low can lead to back pain. Sometimes people have the correct device, set up correctly, but do not know how to properly use it. The brake system on fourwheeled walkers with seats, commonly known as rollators, is a prime example. Many people do not know how or when to lock the brakes. Sitting on or getting up from an unlocked rollator is a recipe for disaster! Sometimes people have the correct device, set up correctly, but resist using it because of vanity or they feel doing so is “not really walking”. SO, WHO CAN HELP DETERMINE THE BEST DEVICE FOR YOUR PROBLEM, SIZE THE DEVICE, AND TEACH YOU HOW TO USE IT TO YOUR BEST ADVANTAGE?

ANSWER: your physical therapist. Physical Therapists are experts in determining the proper device, making sure it is the right height, and teaching the best use. Working with your physical therapist can also help you to see that using a device improves your independence rather than reducing it. With your All-Care physical therapist, either in the clinic or at home, you will learn how to use your assistive device to get you walking more safely and with less pain. Having the

right device to address your problem and knowing how to use it correctly will help improve confidence with your walking and balance which may give you the further confidence to enjoy the activities (e.g. going shopping, going out to lunch, cooking at home) which you might have stopped doing since the injury or illness began. Please call 1-(855) 3ALLCARE for more information. All-Care provides In-Home Physical Therapy including LSVT Parkinson’s treatment to Medicare Patients in many areas of Ocean County. Please call 732-569-5665 for more information! HILLARY PETETTI, IN-HOME PT Hillary graduated from Washington University in St. Louis in 1995 with a Bachelor’s Degree in psychology and writing. She then decided to expand and continue her education to pursue a Master’s Degree in Physical Therapy, graduating from Boston University in 2000. Hillary has worked in numerous settings over her 15 year career including school based pediatrics, acute care, outpatient, skilled nursing facilities, and is now excited about being a part of the All-Care Physical Therapy Home Care Team. Her areas of interest also include Women’s Health and she has taken multiple continuing education courses addressing the pervasive problem of urinary incontinence. In 2013, she became certified in LSVT BIG, a specialized program for Parkinson’s disease. Hillary believes that a motivated patient is usually a successful patient. She has learned that the best way to motivate her patients is by empowering them, using a team approach, and including them in the decision making process on their journey back to health and improved quality of life.

1 cup (250 mL) uncooked long-grain white rice 3/4 cup (185 mL) good-quality canned chicken stock or broth, or vegetable stock or broth 3/4 cup (185 mL) water 1 red or yellow bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and cut into 1/2-inch (12-mm) squares 1 green bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and cut into 1/2-inch (12-mm) squares 1/2 yellow onion, thinly sliced 1 cup (250 mL) thinly sliced Napa cabbage 1/2 cup (125 mL) sliced white mushrooms 1/2 cup (125 mL) small snow peas, stemmed and stringed 1 to 2 tablespoons peanut oil 1 or 2 garlic cloves, minced, optional 1 large egg, beaten 2 tablespoons mushroom soy sauce 2 tablespoons regular soy sauce 2 scallions, thinly sliced at a 45-degree angle

and the rice looks completely dry, 15 to 18 minutes. Empty the rice onto a baking sheet or large platter, and leave it to cool and air-dry for several hours or overnight. Before cooking, use clean, dry hands to separate the rice grains and f luff up the rice. In a mixing bowl, toss together the bell peppers, onion, Napa cabbage, mushrooms and snow peas. Heat a wok or a large, wide skillet with sloping sides over high heat until very hot. Add enough of the oil to coat the wok evenly, drizzling it in all around the upper edges of the pan to f low toward the center. Add the mixture of vegetables and, if using, the garlic. With a long-handled wooden spatula, briskly stir-fry the vegetables continuously until their colors brighten and they look glossy, about 30 seconds. Add the f luffed rice and continue to stir-fry continuously for another 30 seconds or so, tossing together the vegetables and rice. Drizzle in the beaten egg around the edges of the wok, and quickly stir the egg into the rice and vegetables. Drizzle the mushroom soy sauce and regular soy sauce over the rice-and-vegetable mixture, and stir it in briskly. Transfer the rice to a heated serving bowl or platter. Garnish with scallions, and serve immediately.
