New seating arrangements are noticeable in the cafeteria. By Chris Lundy BERKELEY – One of Central Regional High School’s cafeterias has been revamped, as well as several other rooms in the building, for the new year. New tables and chairs give a more restaurant-like feel to the cafeteria. There are booths along the walls. The higher tables have outlets for kids to charge their devices. A pizza station will be installed
that can cook a whole pie in 45 seconds. There were supposed to be wraparound decorations on the walls, showing scenes from Central events, kind of like how Applebee’s restaurants decorate, but staff wasn’t happy with the first attempt, Superintendent Triantafillos Parlapanides said. It will likely be done next summer. (Revamps - See Page 4)

False Forecasts Hurt Shore Area Businesses By Bob Vosseller OCEAN COUNTY – For most seasonal businesses who depend on day trippers to provide their service, a weather forecast of gloom and doom can be devastating and many said that is precisely what happened this summer season. Bill Petruzel, owner of Barnacle Bill’s arcade and miniature golf, which celebrated its 55th year of operation in Ortley Beach on July 21, said, “the weather is always important and this year we had a non-trend of sunny days followed by some rainy weather. It was not consistent.” “Generally we had a good season but if anything it was wet and we would have done a little better,” Petruzel added. Nearby is one of four Kohr’s Ice Cream locations (the others being in Seaside Heights, Seaside Park and Lavallette). Owner Greg Kohr said that forecasts by northern Jersey and New York radio and television stations hurt his business and others with forecasts predicting rain storms that never came. “We are a big day trip customer business and a lot of those forecasts reported storms that were taking place up north but didn’t occur here. It would have been nice if they put a better spin on it,” Kohr said. “We had 10 weekends of rain in the spring and five during the summer. The weather people said we had a 60 percent chance of rain this weekend and that really hurt our Friday and Saturday business. I’d say most businesses this season aren’t doing what we should be,” Kohr added. The Starlight Motel in Ortley Beach has catered to vacationers for decades. Manager Michele McGarry said the false forecasts had hurt her business. “They kept reporting about storms happening up north but there was not a cloud in the sky here.” Angelo Nucci, the motel’s assistant manager said “News 12 was reporting all season about storms that we didn’t get.” “That really hurt us a lot and we had the added problem of the beach replenishment project going on here in Ortley (Businesses - See Page 5)

Revamps:
Continued From Page 1 The revamp was paid for through the cafeteria account, he said. While some districts lose money on the cafeteria, Central has turned a small profit, partly from hosting events. The law states that the money has to be reinvested into the cafeteria. Lunches continue to be $3, with a little extra for a premium lunch. “It’s a great place for them to unwind,” he said. The old furniture was donated to Holiday City South. At the May meeting, the Central Regional
Board of Education authorized a contract with TriMark Food Service equipment of Tampa, Florida for $59,775 for the purchase and installation of a pizza station. Another physical change includes a large screen in the auditorium for presentations or movie nights, he said. The presentation room also got new furniture. It used to be rows of long tables and chairs. The new two-person tables and chairs are all on wheels to allow students and staff to re-arrange everything more easily, to facilitate group projects and discussion. The old furniture was donated to the township police department, he said.

Preschool:
Continued From Page 1 transportation, according to the district. The classes will be held in Clara B. Worth School, H & M Potter School and Bayville School. The preschool times will match the schedules of the elementary schools they are housed in. This is made possible through a $2.2 million Preschool Education Expansion Aid grant from the New Jersey Department of Education, Superintendent James Roselli said. This money is promised by the state to be added to the district’s state aid going forward, to keep the program going. The district is crafting a long-term plan based on what the needs of the district are for
these students, he said. There is an expectation to expand it to 3-year-olds in the future. The classes are being taught in existing classrooms, he said. Berkeley Township School District’s Preschool Program uses a state approved curriculum and certified teachers. Educational experts have said that preschool forms the building blocks of education, and serves as a tool to identify difficulties children may be having before they start kindergarten. Interested families can register at the Administrative Annex Office at 62 Veeder Lane in Bayville between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. throughout the month of September. An original birth certificate and two proofs of residency are required. For more news about this topic, see page 6.

Businesses:
Continued From Page 1 Beach which has caused most of the beach blocks to be closed. Shame on the governor for not seeing that this was not done earlier in the year instead of the peak summer season. That hurt a lot of businesses here,” McGarry said. Further north on Route 35, the owners of Lava Golf, a miniature golf business which features a barrier island theme for its 18 hole course, retaliated with some humor posting on several social media sites that better weather forecasting could be made by fictional characters like Aunt Clara of the 1960s Bewitched TV show and the late psychic, Kreskin not to mention a character from the cartoon SpongeBob Square Pants. Kathy Misdea and her husband Dan own and operate the attraction which started three years ago. “We only had to close a few times this summer due to rain but our weekend business was hurt by the forecasts which generally didn’t reflect what was happening on this end of the state,” Kathy Misdea said. “They said it was going to rain every day this weekend and there isn’t a cloud in the sky,” her husband added. “It was so wrong. The forecasts were so different to what was going on here,” Kathy Misdea said. “We did have some people play in some drizzle but generally it wasn’t bad.” The Beach Authority in Lavallette features bicycle rentals along with a beach supply store. Owner Maytol Manor said the weather forecasts definitely had a negative
The Berkeley Times, September 8, 2018, Page 5 impact at her Lavallette and Ocean Beach locations. “It started on Wednesday when they were predicting rain all weekend,” Manor said. Customer Susan Bialasz of Somerset said she didn’t mind the lack of traffic but “I felt bad for the businesses here. One day it was a report of rain and then it quickly changed to a heat advisory. I have children and you don’t want to plan something when you think rain is going to ruin it. My family has been coming down here all our lives and the weather predictions really stink.” “We have a baby season to work with and as business owners we put our blood, sweat and tears into this. I just hope they don’t shoot down the weekends we have in September,” Manor said. “There are times when Toms River has rain but we don’t get a drop here on the island.” “I do understand how you would weigh in weather as a factor. It would be better if they simply said there was a slight chance of rain and not say it was definitely going to happen,” Manor added. Leah Steriti, manager of the Island Gypsy, a clothes store next to the Beach Authority, had a flurry of business on Labor Day. She noted a different situation than most. “I do know that when it is nicer out we aren’t as busy. We are busy today but Friday was slower than last year’s Labor Day weekend. We do better when it rains. Many of our customers have learned not to rely on the weather reports,” Steriti said. For one business, the day’s heat played a factor in delaying the start of their operation. A miniature golf course on West

Bayville Preschool Closing Its Doors Sept. 28
By Kimberly Bosco BAYVILLE – While many parents are rejoicing about the Berkeley Township School District’s new addition of a Free Full Day Preschool program, the Bayville Preschool has delivered some disheartening news. Bayville Preschool will be closing its doors on September 28 after losing numerous preschoolers to the Berkeley School District’s free preschool. Members from the Bayville Preschool posted a letter announcing their impending closure to Facebook recently. The letter read: “It is with a heavy heart that we write this letter. It has come to our attention that Berkeley Township School District is now offering free preschool in district. Children who were already enrolled with us are now
moving over to the free program in district, and we cannot compete with free.” The letter expresses a sad sentiment from the Bayville Preschool, but offers assistance for those parents who need help finding quality care for their children after their closure. The preschool will be closing in less than a month. While the letter does apologize for the short notice, it noted “we have tried to think of everything we could do to keep our doors open,” but to no avail. The loss of preschoolers has been too great, and the Bayville Preschool explained that they can no longer sustain their program with so few students. “We thank all of you for your dedication and for being a part of our Bayville Preschool family and hope that you will stay with us until the end,” stated the notice.

–Photo courtesy Berkeley Township BERKELEY – On Monday, August 27, Berkeley Township was honored with receiving the Ground Zero flag and its companion, the Cross, which was fashioned out of marble from the lobby of one of the WTC buildings. The honor of receiving the Ground Zero flag was held at the 9/11 Memorial by the stage in Veterans Park, Bayville. This flag, with a now 17 year history, was flown over the rubble at the World Trade Center site and later flew over the “Spider Hole” where Saddam Hussein was hiding. The flag has flown over the Pentagon, several Air Force and Naval bases, numerous Government buildings and has flown thousands of miles, greeting Troops and First Responders. The Ground Zero flag must be flown at each site for at least 9 minutes and 11 seconds.
James Sperber, Lieutenant with the Bayville Fire Department lead the flag raising by discussing the heroes and the innocent Americans who lost their lives on 9/11, such as Colleen Meehan Barkow, whose parents were in attendance. Lt. Sperber added, “The devastating loss brought us together as a country, one nation of proud, caring Americans who are united and stronger than ever.” Berkeley Township Mayor Carmen Amato thanked the Ground Zero flag team, the Meehan family and the owners of American Eagle Flag, who generously donated the flag 17 years ago. The flag procession, led by our three Fire Departments, moved onto the next site in Barnegat Township, before completing the day in Stafford Township.

–Photos courtesy Berkeley Township BERKELEY – If you have been to Veterans Park in Bayville over the past few weeks, you may have seen several new landscaping projects completed. Recently, local Home Depot employees donated their time to enhance certain areas of the park, such as providing mulch for the 70 trees that line the path into Veterans Park. Joe Miserendino, Store Manager for Home Depot of Forked River, states that his company is all about giving back to Veterans. “We build great relationships with our communities and wanted to give back, and we thought that upgrading Veterans Park was the perfect choice. Home Depot volunteers decided to help the township and showcase to visitors just how we take pride in our township.” Berkeley Township Mayor Carmen Amato said, “We have about 100,000 visitors from Memorial Day to Labor Day, so we’re always looking for cost-effective ways to enhance the park.” Amato added, “We appreciate the efforts and the spirit of volunteerism amongst the Home Depot team. They love to give back and we had a few projects at Veterans Park that they were able to work on for us. We appreciate

all of their hard work.” Among the projects that Home Depot completed throughout Veterans Park are 70 trees that need mulching, planting shrubbery and trees by the Firemen’s Memorial, and adding marble chips to build an adjacent 9/11 Memorial. Allison Martin, a Store Manager for Home Depot of Forked River said. “We had about 40-45 volunteers, local Sales Managers and Regional Managers volunteer on the project. Some of our professional merchants are also helping out.” Mayor Amato thanked all of the volunteers, including our own Berkeley Township Police Department, who assisted in the delivery and setting up of the project.

DOES YOGA POSE A PROBLEM FOR EYES?
With the rise in yoga’s popularity in the United States, some researchers have wondered whether headstands pose a threat to the health of the eyes of yoga practitioners. The concern is that this up-ended posture raises the intraocular pressure (IOP) of fluid in the eye that is so often associated with glaucoma. According to one Indian study, when yoga practitioners did headstands, on average, their IOP temporarily doubled. In another study, common head-down yoga poses (such as the downward-facing dog) increased IOP among those with and without glaucoma. While brief spikes in IOP should not raise concern, repeated assumption of these postures can lead to progressive eye damage over time and might promote or worsen glaucoma and other eye conditions. Glaucoma is a common eye disorder which damages the optic nerve. The early stages of glaucoma are undetectable, and experts estimate that only half of the people who currently have glaucoma even realize that they are affected. While there is no cure for glaucoma, many medications and procedures exist that can help to slow the disease or stop it altogether. When you need the best eye care in the area, look to SUSSKIND & ALMALLAH EYE ASSOCIATES, P.A. (732-349-5622). Our goal is to meet and exceed your expectations by providing friendly service, professional care, and quality products at affordable prices.

Protest Over Supreme Court Pick Brings Both Sides
By Bob Vosseller TOMS R IVER – Fou r teen count y residents came together on Washington Street despite confusion regarding whether a rally to oppose the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh by President Donald Trump, was actually taking place or not. Of the 14 present, 10 shared their views with Jersey Shore Online, opposing the nomination while four others explained their view of why Kavanaugh’s nomination should be allowed its due course. The gathering held provided an impromptu forum of civil discourse between both sides. Kavanaugh is being considered for the opening on the United States Supreme Court and a series of nationwide rallies called “Unite For Justice,” took place on Aug. 26. The downtown Toms River rally was one of three in the state that had been scheduled by MoveOn.org with support from partnering agencies that are involved in healthcare and environmental causes but the organizing website dropped the Toms River location the day before. Those who came out to oppose Kavanaugh were not aware of the event’s apparent cancellation. Likewise, those who came out to support the president’s nominee were expecting a bigger turnout by the opposition. The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee is scheduled to begin confirmation hearings on Kavanaugh on Sept. 4. Those who oppose Kavanaugh such as Ocean County Green Party Chairman Thomas Cannavo of Beachwood say he will rule against reproductive freedom, health care, the environment, voting rights, workers’ rights, LGBTQ rights, and immigrant rights, and are calling on U.S. senators to block the appointment. Cannavo was also promoting his organization’s rally set for 1 to 4 p.m. on Sept. 15 in downtown Toms River called a “March for Peace: End Wars.” That event will include a march followed by a rally with live music and speakers advocating for peace. “We need to express our views,” Cannavo said. Beachwood resident Bill Trulby said “I have no problem with him (Kavanaugh) as a person but I don’t think the president should have the ability to put in a person who is 50 something and is a person who will have a lot of inf luence on the supreme court for the next 30 years. We will remember in November.” Trulby said he researched Kavanaugh and he had concerns about the president’s nomination given the circumstances of recent legal issues that could lead to Trump’s indictment or possible impeachment. Sandford Josephson, Manchester, noted similar concerns. “He should not be allowed to have his nominee heard in the Senate at this time. Republicans will be complicit with this if it goes forward.” Josephson is hopeful the nomination
might not pass. “All you need is one (Republican) to f lip it.” Waretow n resident Rosean ne DePasquale has been at tending recent rallies opposing the president’s policies and was present to lend her voice on two fronts, one sharing her view opposing the nomination and leading supporters in a protest song or two. “I don’t see how this president can nominate anyone right now when he may be being brought up on criminal charges. I think this should wait until after the midterm election,” DePasquale said. Tom Ferreri of Bayville felt differently. He attended the rally to find out why there would be opposition to the nomination process. “How can you be against this? How do you know how he will vote on a given issue? He will vote according to an interpretation of law. He is a constitutionalist,” Ferreri said of Kavanaugh. Mark Sisler, his wife Tara, and Mike Rosell, each of Bayville, came out to share their view which was in support of the president’s nomination. “I think everyone is entitled to their opinion but this is a legal process. I didn’t like it when Obama was president but once he was elected I accepted it. I think this nomination stands for itself. I don’t see him as mean spirited. For those afraid he will reverse Roe Vs. Wade, he can’t change that. He is only one person on the bench,” Sisler said. Sitting off to the side of the morning activity, typing on his laptop was Steve Monvay who was unaware of the planned rally and who had come out to sit on the steps and do some writing. The township resident who moved to the United States decades ago from Hungary was pleased to see the civil conversation between the two sides. He also lamented on the passing of Sen. John McCain. “Trump is ignorant and a racist. You see a lot in the people he has picked to be around him,” Monvay said. “I’m Hungarian and I moved here when I was 14. The president of Hungry was a fascist. Trump will be meeting with the prime minister of Hungary soon. I am glad to see people come out and speak their views.” Rep. Thomas McArthur (R-3rd District) provided a prepared statement prior to the rally in support of the nominee. His office is a short distance away from the rally point within the Toms River Township municipal building. “Brett Kavanaugh is exactly the type of judge who would be a great asset to our nation’s highest bench. He was confirmed to his current post with bipartisan support and I expect him to be confirmed to the Supreme Court with support from both parties. I would encourage Democrats to give him a fair and open hearing, rather than obstructing him at every turn, simply because he was nominated by President Trump.”

Tree Planting Perfect Way To Honor Environmentalist
By Judy Smestad-Nunn BRICK – A who’s who of environmental leadership came out to honor one of their own during a tree-planting memorial service at Traders Cove Marina for Greg Auriemma, 63, a Brick resident who died in July last year while on a hiking trip in the White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire. Auriemma had been battling cancer and took off on the 10-day, 30 mile hiking trip after getting news that his condition had improved, said Jeff Tittel, Director of the NJ Sierra Club, at the time. Tittel came to Traders Cove to pay his respects and speak about the passion Auriemma had for protecting the environment. “I was always getting a phone call from Greg on Friday afternoons to give me words of encouragement for whatever we were doing,” Tittel said to the gathering of Auriemma’s family, friends and fellow environmentalists. Auriemma, who was an attorney, helped to restart the Ocean County Chapter of the Sierra Club some 20 years ago, and as its chair, worked tirelessly on ocean issues, climate change, preserving open space, organizing beach clean-ups and much more, Tittel said. “It’s appropriate that we have planted this tree at Traders Cove because Greg spent a lot of years here with Save Barnegat Bay to protect and preserve it as open space,” Tittel said. The last environmental issue the men worked on together for the Sierra Club was to fight a proposed restaurant to be built at the marina and park, Tittel said. Even when Auriemma was feeling sick, he showed up at the Sierra Club meetings, and Tittel said that his friend had a big part in “Barnegat Bay fi nally getting cleaned up.” “In the Jewish religion, a tree stands for life,” Tittel said. “It is fitting to plant a tree because it is a symbol of life moving for-
ward. Plus, we’re tree huggers,” he joked. “The price of stewardship is vigilance, keep doing what’s right, and that’s what Greg did,” he said. Willie deCamp, president of Save Barnegat Bay, said that one of the joys of his career was working with Auriemma. “We fi rst met when he was in the front row of a Save Barnegat Bay meeting to save Traders Cove,” he said. “He was in the front row and wouldn’t stop asking questions and giving his opinion, but his questions and his opinions were very strong.” He said their friendship benefitted deCamp since Auriemma convinced him to attend the climate marches in New York City and in Washington D.C. “It was a revelation how much you learn at these marches,” deCamp said. Auriemma cared about environmental issues everywhere, not just those that affected Ocean County or New Jersey, he said. After deCamp’s comments, Tittel came back to speak about Auriemma’s visit to the White House after Superstorm Sandy. Ocean County was devastated, Tittel recalled, and Auriemma’s lagoon-front home in Brick had also been damaged, but Auriemma worked tirelessly to help raise money for people who needed a place to stay or furniture for their house. “I got a call from the White House and they asked me of all the people I knew who were impacted by Sandy, who was the biggest influence? There was no question, it was Greg, so he went to the White House and met the president,” Tittel said. President Obama recognized Auriemma as a “Champion of Change” for his efforts, Tittel said. Auriemma’s long-time partner, Joyce Isaza, said the memorial service would have meant everything to him. “It is a really big honor for him to have everyone around him that he loved,” she said.

9 Tips To Help Detect Hearing Loss
It is often hard to recognize hearing loss. Simply put, it can be sneaky. As someone who experiences hearing loss, you have an advantage in helping loved ones recognize it in themselves. Here are some signs that can help you start the conversation… Balance Blues. Are they less sure footed than they once were? The inner ear is important to both hearing and stability – the cause of a balance problem could be affecting their hearing as well. The Lean. Do they consistently lean into the conversations on the same side? They could have greater hearing loss on one side, causing them to attempt to use their “good ear.” “Library, Anyone?” Are they not doing some of the things that make them happy? With a hearing loss, it’s difficult to hear in public places with lots of background sounds – they could be avoiding noisy areas altogether. Lots of laughter. Are they laughing more often? It might not mean you’ve hit your comedic stride. If they can’t hear what’s going on they might be responding inappropriately to social cues to feel more
engaged. Odd Responses. Do their replies seem out of place or not make sense? It might not be because they’re distracted – they might not be able to follow the conversation. Isolation. Are they begging off social situations entirely, even at home? It can be difficult to admit to hearing loss, which can lead to social anxiety. The Blame Game. Are they blaming misunderstandings on noises or other people? Rather than admit to hearing loss, sometimes it’s easier to act like outside factors are the issue. What?” Do you feel like you’re repeating yourself more often? Maybe you are mumbling sometimes- but odds are their hearing loss is the problem. Turning up the Volume. This is self explanatory: If your family member or friend can’t hear, they are going to adjust devices so they can. If more than a couple of these hit home, consider starting that conversation with your loved one. We’d be glad to give them a complimentary consultation.
Dr. Izzy and his staff are always available to answer most of your questions regarding your hearing health. His offices are in Toms River, Whiting, and Manahawkin. He can be reached at 732-818-3610 or via Web site at gardenstatehearing.com. Expanded Whiting Hours!

H ERE ’ S T O Y OUR H EALTH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
Amazing Health Benefits Of Prunes
By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. Almost everyone knows what prunes are for, they help you get going! Your parents probably kept them in the cabinet, and offered them to you when you were a kid. Prunes are actually just dried plums, and they’re fruits of the tree species Prunus domestica, hence the name. Speaking of names, which would you rather eat? Prunes which help with bowel function, or “dried plums?” Honestly, which sound more palatable?! For purely marketing reasons, the name was changed which offer mass appeal. What they couldn’t change was how shriveled up and sticky these guys are when you eat them! But don’t let that hinder you because prunes have been scientifically proven to help soften stools and induce a laxative type effect due to their sorbitol content. Prune juice will not work because the actual fruit provides the fiber, juice does not. Do prunes have other medicinal benefits? Yes, surprisingly important ones too! Bones Prunes have been shown in multiple studies to prevent, and even reverse, bone loss in post-menopausal women. They’re good for osteoporosis! Prunes work by suppressing the rate of bone turnover. In fact, prominent researchers wrote an article in the British Journal of Nutrition and after studying the fruits, they have come to conclusion that prunes are “the most effective fruit in both preventing and reversing bone loss.” Blood vessels A placebo-controlled trial out of Pakistan showed that eating just one serving of
prunes each day could significantly lower blood pressure in hypertensive patients. Those who ate the prunes had a reduction in both their systolic and diastolic blood pressure (top and bottom numbers). Brain Eating prunes might preserve your brain. In an animal model study, feeding rodents an extract of plums helped to maintain their cognitive function. Not only was their memory recall improved, there was less formation of Beta amyloid plaques, which are the same damaging protein found in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. Even if everything is ‘moving right along’ in your life, consider adding prunes to your diet if only to help you with blood pressure regulation, bone health and memory. It’s mind-blowing to think such a simple thing could help so much. As a pharmacist, I see no risk to this, and only benefit. But of course, don’t eat too many prunes or you’ll get diarrhea! If you’re constipation is due to opiate usage (such as oxycodone or hydrocodone) then this would require an OTC medication such as MiraLAX. The prunes are fine, but will not be enough! If your constipation is secondary to hypothyroidism, prunes will not be enough. You will need thyroid medication. I have written about this extensively at my website. Prunes would be fantastic on a salad! Or just eat them whole. Recipes exist everywhere including my website where I also have a longer version of this article posted. If you simply can’t stand prunes, then plums are a great alternative! Plums contain the same anthocyanins that prunes do, and they are even juicier!

Inside The Law Injured At Work?! Know Your Rights To Critical Benefits!
YOUR JOB
(YES IT’S POSSIBLE)
Robert C. Shea Esq.
732-279-3570
By Chris Shea, Esq., of R.C. Shea and Associates You have a right to a safe and healthful workplace. If you have suffered an injury on the job, make sure you know what kind of benefits you might receive under workers’ compensation coverage. In some instances, an aggressive compensation carrier may deny an injured worker’s legitimate workers’ compensation claims. An insurer can claim you have not been injured, or that the injury you have suffered is not serious enough to qualify for workers’ compensation benefits. If this is the case, you may stand to lose critical benefits. Most important among these critical benefits is the right to medical treatment. Medical benefits are mandated by the New Jersey Worker’s Compensation Act, and require the employer to furnish the injured worker with medical, surgical, and other treatment as are necessary “to cure and relieve the worker of the effects of the injury and to restore the functions of the injured member or organ” if possible. Moreover, in those instances where the employer has refused or neglected to provide medical treatment in accordance with the provisions of the Workers’ Compensation Act, the employer will be held responsible for the cost of treatment; even if the employee receives treatment prior to the carrier’s authorization. Further, it is important to note another
critical benefit of the Christopher R. Shea Esq. Workers Compensation Act. This benefit protects employees from collections law suits when the employee obtains medical treatment that has been wrongfully or negligently withheld by an employer. This benefit, was upheld by the New Jersey Appellate Court in Kinley Physical Therapy Services, Inc. v. Kramer, and unequivocally states that a medical service provider is prohibited from filing an action against the employee until a determination has been made by the Division of Workers’ Compensation. The Court reasoned that a medical provider is normally not permitted to pursue collection actions in court until it resolves all administrative remedies, thus, the employee must be shielded from all actions by the medical provider until the Court determines whether or not the employer is responsible for the cost of medical care. If you feel your legitimate benefits have been denied and you live in the New Jersey, our workers compensation lawyers would like to talk to you to see if we can assist you with your case. Please call for a free consultation. R.C. Shea & Associates, 244 Main Street, Toms River, N.J. \ (732) 505-1212.

By Jennifer Peacock POINT PLEASANT BEACH – Four sea turtles were released back into the wild 7 a.m. Sept. 5 at Water Street. The turtles were rehabilitated at Sea Turtle Recovery, a nonprofit hospital located inside the Essex County Turtle Back Zoo. Twenty-three turtles have been rehabbed and released since the hospital opened in December 2016. Tammie, an adult Loggerhead, and three juvenile Kemp’s Ridley sea turtles, will be released Sept. 5. Tammie was found off the coast of Cape May by the crew of the United States Coast Guard Cutter Lawrence Lawson. The turtle appeared to have injuries received from propeller strikes across her carapace, top shell. But she is now ready to return to the ocean.
“Watching Tammie return to the ocean will be highly rewarding. After over a year in rehabilitation, this turtle and all of the turtles getting released take a piece of my heart with them on their journey,” co-executive officer of STR Brandi Biehl said. Also scheduled for release was Glacier, recovered from a broken flipper; Shellbie, healed of fungal pneumonia; and Junior, who had a respiratory infection. Kemp’s Ridley sea turtles are endangered, “which makes their return home vital in the effort to save their species,” STR officials said. “To see the fight to survive in these sea turtle’s eyes, it makes you realize how fragile our oceans are and how it is our responsibility to keep it safe for the animals that call it home.” Biehl said. The release can also be watched at facebook.com/ SeaTurtleRecovery.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of sept 8 - sept 14 By Jeraldine Saunders
ARIES (Mar 21-Apr. 19): Don’t rush to judgment. It may be better to hold off on drawing any conclusions as you may not yet have all the facts at your disposal. Remain calm in the face of adversity as things will quickly improve in the week ahead. TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20): Maintain a united front. Petty squabbles with those who are on your side may leave you as a solo act if you’re not careful. Don’t assume that your concerns are more important than anyone else’s this week. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Just because they offer you Kool-Aid doesn’t mean you have to drink it. Keep in mind that those who are overly optimistic may make foolish or reckless decisions. Let common sense be your guide in the week ahead. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Let them accept you as you are in the upcoming week. Someone who makes you bend over backwards to please is taking advantage so draw the line. Your generosity should be your choice, not someone else’s. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Maintain a modicum of moderation. Getting too passionate or excited over a new interest may cause you to go overboard so try to keep your wits about you. You may be attracted to gaudy or tasteless items this week. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Look before you leap. Stay anchored in reality when discussing future plans as you may agree to do something that is not possible. Use logic and common sense this week to avoid wandering into uncharted waters. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22.): Grin and bear
it. Giving into your adventurous side may result in a neglect of responsibilities. Stick to your routines this week. Making waves when dealing with the status quo could leave you struggling to stay afloat. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Take the high road. You may find that a short-cut takes you the exact same place as doing it the hard way. Don’t be afraid to question established norms in the week ahead as there may indeed be an easier way. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Bring your A game. Don’t be so overconfident this week that you neglect to make necessary preparations for your latest endeavor. Assuming that you know what someone is thinking is asking for trouble. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Let them down easy. Employ a little tact when trying to show a loved one the error of their ways. Being too blunt could hurt feelings this week. Show them that you’re on their side by being helpful and kind. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): It may not be worth the risk. Successfully taking a chance may yield vast rewards but there’s no certainty that you won’t fail. Play it safe this week and indulge in the many joys of life that cost you nothing. PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar. 20): Don’t be a rebel without a cause. Being argumentative or defiant simply for the sake of stirring things up will get you nowhere. Focus extra energy on being creative rather than trying to tear things down this week.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen Summer Finale: Easy Recipe Provides Seamless Transition To Fall Grilling By Wolfgang Puck
What are you grilling for Labor Day? That question is being asked more and more as the unofficial end of summer draws near. It’s an odd time of year to be thin king about what you might grill. The actual end of summer is fast approaching, after which the days grow shorter and shorter as fall begins to close in. We’re also on the verge of facing so-called Indian summer, when temperatures can sometimes be as warm as the hottest summer days, or even hotter. So my suggestion to you is to cook something that feels special yet easy for the end of vacation time but also feels slightly autumnal. A dish with a hint of f lavors that will feel robust and comforting for the cooler days that will ultimately come after Indian summer passes. With all that in mind, pork chops seem to me like an ideal main ingredient choice. They cook quickly and easily on the grill, providing tender, f lavorful results. They’re impressive, substantial and satisfying. You can also go on cooking the recipe as summer gives way to autumn. And, once the weather turns a bit colder, feel free to adapt it simply by cooking the chops on the stovetop in a little bit of peanut oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat instead of on the grill. Voila! You have a perfectly delicious autumn dish that will make you think back to happy summer days. GRILLED PORK CHOPS WITH VINEGAR BUTTER AND BABY ARUGULA Serves 4 4 well-trimmed pork chops, each about 8 ounces (250 g) Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 1 large shallot, minced 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, 3 tablespoons cut into small pieces 1/4 cup (60 mL) Zinfandel vinegar
or other good-quality, strongf lavored red wine vinegar 1/2 cup (125 mL) dry red wine 1/2 cup (125 mL) good-quality chicken broth or stock, boiled in a small saucepan until reduced to about 1/4 cup (60 mL) 2 bunches baby arugula, tough stems removed, leaves rinsed under cold running water and patted dry Preheat a grill for direct-heat cooking, with the fire directly under the cooking grid. When the fire is hot, season the pork chops to taste on both sides with salt and pepper. G r ill the chops until well-seared on both sides and cooked through but still juicy, 5 to 7 minutes per side, turning them only once; an instant read grilling thermometer inserted into the center of a chop should read about 145 F (63 C). Remove the chops to a heated platter, cover with aluminum foil, and keep warm. As soon as the pork chops start grilling, prepare the sauce. Put the shallot and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a nonreactive saucepan over medium heat and saute until the shallot begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the vinegar, stir and scrape with a wooden spoon to deglaze the pan deposits, raise the heat to high, and cook until the vinegar reduces by half its volume, about 1 minute. Stir in the wine and continue boiling until it reduces by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the reduce broth or stock and continue simmering the sauce until it is thick enough to lightly coat the back of a spoon, 2 to 3 minutes longer. Reduce the heat to low and whisk the sauce continuously while adding the remaining butter pieces a little at a time, only adding more when those you’ve added are fully incorporated. Season the sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Arrange a bed of arugula leaves on each of four warmed dinner plates. Place a pork chop on top of each bed of arugula.
