By Jennifer Peacock MANCHESTER – One Manchester graduate has earned a prestigious Girl Scouts award for creating a space that will benefit high school students for years to come. Bailey Farrell, 17, presented her sensory garden, which sits in the school’s interior courtyard, to family, friends
and school officials at the end of August. Her volunteer work to create the garden earned her the Girl Scout Gold Award, the highest and most difficult award to earn in the scouts. The award is open only to high school girls. They are tasked with identifying an issue, researching it, and then creating and executing a plan.
The projects usually take close to 100 hours to complete, and after, the girls must make a presentation on what their project is. The Girls Scouts of America says the award distinguishes girls from other candidates in the college application process as well as job prospects. (Garden - See Page 4)
Detox Zoning Ordinance Held Off
By Jennifer Peacock LAKEHURST – The ordinance that would have made way for a detox center in the borough will be tabled until next year, officials said. Councilwoman Patricia Hodges said the ad hoc ordinance committee met the last week of August and decided that all borough ordinances - including land use and zoning ordinances - need a comprehensive review. That will likely begin in January. The ordinance may never come to the table, she said. She had asked that the land use ordinance introduced for fi rst reading in August be tabled, because it had not been reviewed by that committee. She, Council President Steven Oglesby and Mayor Harry Robbins comprise that committee. Hodges still didn’t have an answer as to who drafted that ordinance, and included it on the Aug. 16 council agenda. The ordinance would have allowed a detox facility to be built on a parcel of land at least 2 acres large. La Bove Grande, at the westernmost traffic circle in the borough, sits on more than 2 acres. One banquet hall owner, Jerry Bove, would not offer a definitive answer when reached by phone by The Manchester Times Aug. 21. He did say La Bove Grand will remain in business “for a long time.”

He was dropping out. He had to. “He explained that he needed this additional treatment, that he was feeling weak, and he just didn’t have the energy. He didn’t think it was fair to me. He didn’t think it was fair to the people of Ocean County. He felt it was his honorable responsibility to step aside,” Little said. This was to be their sixth election together. They knew each other for years, before Little became a Freeholder, with his work as chief of staff for the Ninth Legislative District. But, they really got to know each other with Bartlett’s proposal for the natural lands trust (Bartlett - See Page 5)

Bailey was part of Troop Jersey Shore 50601, which recently disbanded due to its members all aging out. She’s been in Girl Scouts since the second grade, and with Troop 50601 since fifth grade. She’s now on her way to Stockton University to study nursing. Bailey worked closely with vice principal Stacie Ferrara (who is now principal at Brick Memorial High School) from seed to garden. Bailey had the help of the district, as well as supplies donated by Lowe’s Home Improvement, to create her sensory garden. The plants and flowers chosen are spring

makes a very distinct rustling sound. The autumn favorite, mums of different colors, sit in the sight box. And in the middle of the garden, Bailey placed an owl windchime for sound. “These types of gardens are very popular and beneficial to those with sensory processing issues, including but not limited to autism and other disabilities,” Bailey said. “Because these gardens are gaining popularity as a physical resource for special education, I really wanted to bring that here, and then when [special education teacher Amanda McCollum]…approached me with the idea, I took it and ran with it. I was so excited…to bring this experience to Manchester.” A person has a sensory processing disorder “when sensory signals are either not detected or don’t get organized into appropriate responses,” according to the STAR Institute For Sensory Processing Disorder. “A person with SPD finds it difficult to process and act upon information received through the senses, which creates challenges in performing countless everyday tasks. Motor clumsiness, behavioral problems, anxiety, depression, school failure, and many other problems may impact those who do not have effective treatment.” Bailey’s sensory garden can be used as a

calming place for those who are overstimulated, as well as an exploratory place for those whose are under-stimulated. “Bailey started the school year wanting to achieve her gold award, which is one of the highest awards - it’s equivalent to the Eagle Scout award - which we often don’t celebrate or acknowledge locally,” Ferrara said. “Even though there might be 10,000 Girl Scouts on the Jersey shore, there’s usually maybe under 30 that achieve this award in the Jersey Shore. So, we’re always proud of our students going above and beyond, but not only did Bailey pick a project, she did something that really created and started the garden here.” Bailey called being part of her Girl Scout troop “the greatest experience of her life.” She’s had the chance to travel and perform other community service projects. Bailey was joined by her mother and father, Janice and Patrick Farrell. “We’re proud of her. She took on the challenge, the concept through developmental, and just got it done, completely,” Patrick said. Janice believes her daughter will stay active in the Girl Scouts. Bailey plans on becoming a lifetime member, and perhaps starting her own troop after college. “I would love to do that,” Bailey said.
OCEAN COUNTY – The September 8 edition’s article entitled “False Forecasts Hurt Jersey Shore Area Businesses” mentioned “Aunt Clara of the 1960s Bewitched TV show and the late psychic, Kreskin not to mention a character from the cartoon SpongeBob Square Pants.” Kreskin should not be referred to as “the late.” Kreskin has not passed away. We regret the error.

Since Bailey is off to college, her garden will be tended by the high school’s Green Team and the grounds crew. She described the sensory garden as a self-contained area that allows visitors to enjoy a wide-variety of sensory experiences. Students can be immersed in sounds, textures and colors. Everything in the garden was selected with a sensory element in mind: sound, taste, touch, smell, sight. Blueberry bushes are planted in the taste box. Orange, pink and red roses occupy the scent box, but also offer a colorful visual element. The touch box has three tall clumps of beach grass, which when touched also

Bartlett:
Continued From Page 1 fund. Little was a councilman in Surf City back in 1989 when Bartlett was pushing for this fund. At the time, Ocean County had three daily newspapers and numerous weekly newspapers. Little wrote to the papers a letter of support for Bartlett and his proposal. The idea became law, of course, with overwhelming support from all voting districts in the county. Bartlett tapped Little to serve on the Natural Lands Advisory Committee, which he accepted. Little joined the Board of Chosen Freeholders in 2003 to fill the unexpired term left by the late James J. Mancini. Bartlett and Little have run together since. “First of all, he’s a gentleman. He’s a true gentleman. He’s old school. He does not speak ill of anyone. He can play politics just like all of us can on the one hand. On the other hand, he does it straightforward, and face to face,” Little said. “He doesn’t talk ill about people. He talks about issues. He talks about his service to the county. He’s been a fantastic running mate. Everybody knows John. “Not only to me, but to all the Freeholders, John is not only the longest serving Freeholder, but also our longest serving friend. That’s the way I feel about John,” Little said. Bartlett, a former teacher who taught at Toms River North, has served in public office continuously for nearly five decades. The Lakewood native moved to Pine Beach in 1947, where he was elected to council in
1974 and elected mayor four years later. He was elected Freeholder in 1979. Bartlett fi rst announced he had cancer back in 2016, and was seeking treatment outside the state. Wracked with fatigue and pain in recent months, he and his family discovered he again had cancer. So at the special convention of the Republican Committee Sept. 13, George R. Gilmore, Chairman of Ocean County Republican Organization, said all 10 contenders would make great Freeholders. “But I think we all know that we suffered a serious loss on the ballot when John Bartlett withdrew his name,” Gilmore told the packed house that night. “John Bartlett has been a great Freeholder for this county. He’s been a great Freeholder for the people. I don’t think we can think of a person better to manage the fi nances of this county the way he has during his term. He’s a great individual…” After vetting the candidates, the Republican screening committee decided on Lacey Committeeman Gary Quinn to take Bartlett’s place on ballot. He’s a local developer, owner and president of Eastport Builders Inc. of Lacey. He and his wife have been married for 39 years. They have a son and daughter. He is currently the senior member of the Lacey Township Committee, and had previously been on the Lacey Township Board of Education. He had been appointed to the Pinelands Commission by Gov. Chris Christie. “John has had an such an impact on anything and everything that has happened throughout this county in the last 30 years,
and he have to truly remember to thank him for his service,” Quinn said during his acceptance speech. He had aspired for years to become a Freeholder, something Bartlett encouraged him in. “But I had always dreamed of working with John because of all the knowledge he has. …John is somebody that is going to be truly, truly missed. There’s no question they are very large shoes to fill. I promise you I’m going to do my best to continue John’s work and continue with John’s legacy, because he truly has made this county what it is.”
The other contenders included Jackson Councilman Rob Nixon, attorney Sean Gertner, Plumsted Mayor Jack Trotta, Pine Beach Mayor Lawrence Cuneo, South Toms River Mayor Oscar L. Cradle, Barnegat Councilman John Novak, Toms River’s Gus Kakavas, Berkeley Councilman James Byrnes, and the only woman, Stafford Councilwoman Sharon McKenna. “Nothing lasts forever,” Bartlett said at Aug. 29 workshop meeting. “And there does [come] a time to say, ‘Your time is now fi nished. Your time is now up.”

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY E DITORIAL A Letter To The Editor Is One Person’s Opinion For 23 years, Micromedia Publications has been a source for news in the community. Ever since the first edition of The Manchester Times, dated April 18, 1995, we’ve published letters to the editor on a variety of topics ranging from local issues to international affairs. For clarification purposes, Wikipedia defines a letter to the editor as “a letter written to a newspaper, magazine or other periodical about issues of concern to readers, usually intended to be published in the paper/ periodical.” Everything from nose hair to politics - no subject is off limits and we get a wide array of submissions. Sometimes we make the decision not to run a letter that may be riddled with hate speech, racist, homophobic or blasphemous ramblings. But the company has always run letters as a common practice. In fact, our whole mission statement is based on the importance of the community and serving as a voice to our readers. Part of that service is to allow for opinions to be expressed and then discussed either through additional letters or online social media posts. You can imagine my surprise when I saw some of the colorful comments posted on our social media pages after we ran a letter in which the AUTHOR called for President Donald Trump’s impeachment. Did we agree with the letter? Maybe, maybe not. We are journalists first and don’t take sides (despite many major media outlets today doing so). Was the letter the opinion of the writer? Yes. Was there a disclaimer stating that the letter was the opinion of the writer? Absolutely. Did people read that disclaimer? Obviously not. Do we run positive letters regarding President Trump? Yes, yes we do. Do we get a lot of submissions? Frankly, no, we don’t. That is certainly surprising to us in the newsroom as we do live in
a Republican county. If we received more, we would certainly run them. A monk from England named John Lydgate is k nown for this famous phrase: “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time.” I will say this once again - this time both in the printed papers and online: we welcome ALL letters from all sides of the political aisle. Our newspapers are fair and balanced. We don’t take sides. We don’t play favorites. It seems that ever since the 2016 election, the amount of negativity from people is stronger than ever. Regardless of your political views and ideology and who you support to lead this great country, remember that we are all human beings with a right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. There’s certainly a way you can express yourself without name calling and being utterly hurtful. Someone’s political view doesn’t say everything about that person’s character. I’ve seen a lot of hate speech from all sides and it’s really a shame. We should all want our country to be great and for us to remember all of the liberties we have thanks to our founding fathers and the brave men and women who have served our nation. We welcome a difference of opinion without fear of retribution or blowback - just try and be civil and know the letters to the editor will continue to be a permanent staple of the Micromedia newspapers and Jersey Shore Online. So with that, if you would like to send a letter, email it to news@jerseyshoreonline.com Thank you as always, Jason Allentoff Vice President/COO Micromedia Publications, Inc.
Letters To The Editor MacArthur A Leader For NJ During the last midterm election, four years ago, the nation was experiencing a wave of voter discontent. It was at this time that Congressman MacArthur was elected to the New Jersey 3rd Congressional seat. It was also when Republicans expanded their majority in the House, gained control of the Senate for the first time in eight years, and total control of Congress. With the 2016 election of President Donald Trump, Congressman MacArthur and the Republicans finally had the opportunity to make a real difference for our country. During Congressman MacArthur’s time in office, his years of previous experience in the business world, his unquestioned support and dedication to the men and women in the military and our national defense and his commitment to tackling the Opioid epidemic, have made him a valued member in the House. One need only look at his record of reforming FEMA in wake of Superstorm Sandy and his efforts to save Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, to see how valuable his leadership has been. This is what I like most about Congressman MacArthur. He is a trailblazer and a leader, not a follower. Under the leadership of Congressman MacArthur and the Republican-led Government, you can see for yourself that
Letters To The Editor the economic engine of the United States is booming, and the unemployment rate among all Americans stands at record lows. Companies and jobs are coming back to America, like never before. Thank you Tom MacArthur, for your important contributions to the improving of conditions in our country. After years of defeatist Democratic policies, in which we were told that America’s best days are behind us, it is refreshing to see people being positive and optimistic about the future. Lloyd Mullikin Bayville
When A Politician Lies When considering candidates this November, it’s important to look past disinformation and fear mongering pushed forth by some candidates and their surrogates. When a candidate uses lies to stoke the fears of voters, it should make one question why that candidate resorts to disinformation instead of outlining their ideas for the community they will represent. The tired, old tactic of lying about your opponent does not speak to today’s voters because today’s voters are very savvy. Many of my friends and I prefer candidates like Andy Kim, candidate for Representative of NJ-03, who have a positive message, who look to the future with a well-

Free Will, And Government Oppression What is the meaning of life? Like our DNA, it is different for each of us as we utilize our talents, we leave our fingerprints on the future. God bestowed us with the gift of free will and the dominion over all other living things. This free will is unconditional, including whether to believe or not. Many believe man has evolved beyond the belief in God. The truth is, in all of recorded history we have not evolved at all, being of the same flesh easily swayed by evil. Men have chosen to have dominion over other men, denying them their right to free will and choice. This is the greatest evil of all. In the 20th century alone at least 160 million people were murdered by their own governments ruled by evil men. Free will is meant to be used within the realm of the Ten Commandments or the Golden Rule. Believers living by the Golden Rule know their first obligation is to sustain oneself. Once accomplished, you should be fruitful and multiply within your ability to support a family and participate in a community. Your fi nal obligation is charity for those unable to support themselves. Forced charity through government taxation is not charity at all. It is
the usurpation of free will. We’ve a long way to go. James M. Spickard Little Egg Harbor
Welle Insulted Local Residents Democrat Josh Welle is running for a seat in the House of Representatives against Republican Congressman Chris Smith in New Jersey’s Fourth Congressional District. The election is on Nov. 6. Mr. Welle is a veteran and I thank him for his military service. Can’t thank him enough. Now his comments mentioned online on Aug. 2 regarding residents of the 4th District are insulting and misleading. He says he wants to end racism and discrimination in the district. “But as you go to Howell and Jackson and Allentown and Millstone, and people who voted for Chris Smith for 37 years,” he said. “They’re not there.” Mr. Welle sure has a funny way of trying to get votes. I lived and served in Howell and now live in Jackson. And just because a good many of us in the 4th District are conservatives or lean Republican does not make us racist. Mr. Welle’s “progressive” ways have failed everywhere they’ve been applied and will only place more of a burden on people and businesses already fleeing our state in droves. Nino Borrelli Jackson Ed note: the full quote was: “I want to move this district forward. I want to fight against discrimination in this district. I want to fight against racism in this district. I want to bring new jobs to this district in the green economy. But as you go to Howell and Jackson and Allentown and Millstone, and people who voted for Chris Smith for 37 years. They’re not there yet.”

SPOTLIGHT ON GOVERNMENT Correspondence & Commentary From Your Local, County, State & Federal Officials
NJ’s Move Over Law Should Be Strengthened CAPITOL COMMENTS 10th Legislative District Senator Jim Holzapfel • Assemblyman Greg McGuckin • Assemblyman Dave Wolfe
TRENTON – State Sen. Jim Holzapfel and Assemblymen Dave Wolfe and Greg McGuckin (all R-10th) are looking to strengthen the state’s move over law following a recent incident in which four Manchester Township police officers were injured when a driver failed to obey the law. A fifth officer narrowly es-
caped injury in a separate incident nine months ago. The 10th legislative district legislators are co-sponsoring a bill (S2501/A3890) increasing the penalty for violating the law which carries a $100 to $500 fine. Drivers violating the law will also be assessed two motor vehicle points under the proposed legislation.
Repeat offenders face additional surcharges and could have their license suspended “I originally sponsored move over legislation in New Jersey several years ago after visiting Florida which enacted its law in 2002,” said Holzapfel. “Emergency personnel need to focus on the task at hand which is helping motorists. They shouldn’t have to worry about being injured or killed by careless drivers. It’s our hope that this bill, along with enhanced enforcement, will save lives.” Four Manchester Township officers pulled over a driver
on Rt. 37 and were conducting an investigation when another motorist hit the stopped vehicle, injuring the officers earlier this month. Another Manchester officer was sideswiped when he stopped on the shoulder to investigate a struck deer in November 2017. As he walked toward his vehicle, with its emergency lights on, a passing car swerved to avoid hitting the officer and kept going. “The public needs to understand these are life and death situations,” said Wolfe. “First responders are needlessly being killed and injured because drivers
are disregarding the law. They don’t stand a chance against a car or truck that’s barreling down a highway. They’re sitting ducks. We’re putting drivers on notice that they need to obey the law or face stiff consequences.” “These recent incidents in Manchester are a wake-up call. Drivers need to pay better attention to their surroundings,” said McGuckin. “Cops and other first responders are in the business of saving lives. They shouldn’t lose theirs or risk injury because of careless drivers. “This isn’t rocket science.
China Must Be Held Accountable For Production Of Deadly Fentanyl From The Desk Of
Congressman
Chris Smith WASHI NGTON, D.C. – “Chinese-made fentanyl, a synthetic opioid, is killing Americans - more than 29,000 in 2017 alone. We must hold the Chinese government accountable,” Congressman Chris Smith (R-4th) said during a hearing about how deadly fentanyl is contributing to the opioid epidemic. A leading prosecutor from Smith’s Congressional district, Joseph Coronato, of Ocean County, called China-made fentanyl into the U.S. a “synthetic storm” that is “devastating,” but highlighted his program that allows drug abusers to voluntarily turn themselves in to a police station—more than
800 since 2017—without being prosecuted. Smith said the program has “almost cer tainly reduced deaths.” In 2017, there was a 20 percent reduction in overdose deaths—174—in Ocean County, down from 217 deaths in 2016. Still, based on his medical examiner toxicology analysis, Coronato said “that in 2014, 10 percent of overdose deaths had fentanyl in their systems. In 2018, fentanyl-related deaths have jumped to 80 percent.” Coronato also said “synthetics will become the predominate type of illegal drugs abused within the next 5 years” and that “in many instances” it is
being sold “right over the internet.” Smith pressed both the St at e D e p a r t me nt a nd DEA to do more to hold China accountable for fentanyl in the U.S., asking them, “Are we using existing tools to hold bad actors in China accountable? We have tools, such as the Global Magnitsky Act, which targets corrupt officials and human rights abusers. Perhaps it is time we start thinking outside the box and use somet h i ng l i ke Global Magnitsky to ensure that corrupt Chinese officials and narco-traffickers are held to account.” Smith also said he voted for the House-passed “Synthetics and Overdose Prevention Act, to require the U.S. Postal Service (as private carriers like UPS and Fed-Ex are currently required to do) to obtain advance electronic data (AED) - detailed info on the shipper and addressee
and other data - empowering Customs and Border Protection to target fentanyl and other illegal drug shipments.” Bryce Pardo of the RAND Corporation testified that the potency of fentanyl has sharply increased the
cent of all opioid overdose deaths,” Pardo stated in his testimony. “Today’s drug overdose crisis now surpasses major public health epidemics of prior generations, including the HIV/AIDS epidemic,” Pardo stated.

Move over or slow down,” continued McGuckin. “Use some common sense and common courtesy. This bill puts drivers on notice that if they don’t, they will pay.” The state’s move over law, enacted in January 2009, requires drivers to reduce their speed and change lanes when approaching vehicles displaying emergency lights, including police, fire, medical services vehicles and highway maintenance and tow trucks. When safely changing lanes isn’t possible, drivers must slow down below the posted speed limit. New Jersey is the 44th state to pass such a law.

By Chris Christopher LAKEWOOD – Spencer Howard pitched a no-hitter Friday night, leading the Lakewood BlueClaws past the Kannapolis Intimidators 1-0 in the South Atlantic League playoffs. “I don’t think it has sunk in yet,” he said while his teammates staged a celebration in the team’s clubhouse. “It’s kind of surreal. It was a lot of fun. It went by quick. It’s incredible. I have no words for it.” The victory gave Lakewood, the Philadelphia Phillies’ low Class A farm team, a 2-0 sweep of its best of three Northern Division Championship Series against the Chicago White Sox affiliate from North Carolina. The BlueClaws advanced to the best of five SAL Championship Series in which they will meet the Lexington (Ky.) Legends, a Kansas City Royals farm club. The first two games of the series will be played in Kentucky. The remaining games will take place at FirstEnergy Park beginning Thursday, Sept. 13. Howard, a righty, threw as hard as 100 mph at FirstEnergy Park in his Sept. 7 classic. He blazed a 100 mph high, inside fastball past an enemy hitter for one of his nine strikeouts. Howard walked one, hit one batter and unleashed one wild pitch. He threw 103 pitches, including 73 for strikes. He faced 30 batters - just three over the minimum in a nine-inning game. He threw the seventh gem in the history of the BlueClaws, who began play in 2001. It was the third nine-inning no-hitter by a single Lakewood pitcher (Gavin Floyd in 2002 and Nick Fanti last season). And it was Lakewood’s first postseason no-hitter in franchise history. “It’s the first night all season that I had my curve working,” Howard said. “It’s the first night all year that I had confidence in it. I have been working on it a lot and it finally came together. I used it more than I did my changeup. I probably had the best command of my fastball that I had all season I worked on my curveball extensively for the entirety
of the year. This was the first time in a game setting that it was this controlled. “In college, I didn’t really have it and last season I worked on a spike curve. The movement was there, but I really didn’t know how to throw it or compete with it. I played off the high fastball with it and I threw a couple in the dirt that were chase pitches.” Howard said Lakewood catcher Rodolfo Duran played large roles throughout the game. “I trusted him - the way he called the game,” Howard said after whiffing four of his first six hitters. “We were on the same page for the whole game.” Howard needed a mere four pitches to work through the eighth inning. “At the end, I threw my fastball where I was supposed to,” he said. “I let them (the Intimidators) put it in play.” Howard said he began thinking a no-hitter was possible late in the game. “Heading into the eighth, I noticed it,” he said. “When I went to the mound in the ninth, I kind of noticed it. Our fans noticed it. I could tell that by the way they were cheering.” The announced crowd of 3,592 roared its approval as Howard registered the game’s final out with a fly to left field off the bat of Steele Walker to Matt Vierling. Howard worked on his fundamentals while warming up in the bullpen prior to the game. “I went through my mechanics and got myself synced up,” he said. “I had a plan and it worked out. When I saw them go against us in the first game of the series, I saw they attacked the fastball.” Kannapolis loaded the bases in the third, in which Lakewood first baseman Jake Scheiner and shortstop Nick Maton made both of their team’s two errors, but Howard wriggled out of the jam, getting Walker to line to first base to end the inning. A Kannapolis leadoff batter reached first base in the sixth when he was hit by a pitch. (BlueClaws - See Page 20)

H ERE ’ S T O Y OUR H EALTH Dr. Izzy’s Sound News Presented By: Isidore Kirsh, Ph.D., F.A.A.A. (N.J. Lic. #678)
Dr. Isidore Kirsh Ph.D., F.A.A.A.
Healthy Hearing With Folic Acid In a world where the word “healthy” is tossed around like a salad, it’s easy to be overwhelmed by information about your well-being. To make things simpler for you, we’ve served up some easy-to-digest facts about diet and hearing health. Folate is naturally found in food, whereas folic acid is manmade from folate. This B vitamin is proven to help prevent high-frequency hearing loss, which is the varying inability to perceive high-pitched sounds and consonants. Folic acid decreases the amount of the amino acid homocysteine in your blood by increasing the creation of red blood cells. Too much homocysteine causes hearing difficulty by reducing blood flow to the inner ear. Folic acid is also useful in preventing heart disease, stroke, and dementia. Older adults need 400 micrograms of
folic acid every day for good health. It is easy to increase your daily intake of the nutrient by eating more of foods like beans, citrus fruits, enriched grains, and dark leafy vegetables. To make it easier, in January 1998, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) began requiring manufacturers to add folic acid to food that is labeled as “enriched.” Increasing your intake can be as simple as rolling out of bed and grabbing a quick breakfast. Just a cup of enriched breakfast cereal with one cup of 1 percent milk, plus three-quarters of a cup of OJ on the side, will put you at 32 percent of your daily requirement of folic acid in one meal. Talk about starting your day off right! Folic acid-rich foods like spinach, avocado, strawberries, broccoli, and cantaloupe are hearing helpful foods.
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!

7 Natural Remedies For Bug Bites And Stings
By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
Bugs are not my favorite thing. Even after living in Florida for 35 years, I never grew accustomed to them. If you’re like me and would rather not admit defeat in the summer by staying indoors, then go ahead and enjoy the outdoors. You can always soothe your bug bites with my tips below. Just FYI, the B vitamin trick doesn’t really work. Some people assume that taking B vitamins repels mosquitos and prevents bug bites, but that’s simply not true. You’re still going to get attacked because mosquitoes are more attracted by carbon dioxide and heat, which all of us put off. So forget the B vitamin trick. Here are 6 soothing ways to deal with bug bites: 1. Ice Cubes - Ice is a foolproof method for relieving irritation from insect bites on contact. Not only does ice temporarily numb the pain, it also reduces swelling and inf lammation so that your injury heals faster. 2. Tea Bags - While you might typically turn to tea to soothe your emotional state, this potent brew can aid sensitive skin as well. The tannins in green and black tea are natural astringents, working quickly to ease discomfort. 3. Garl ic - Eating garlic the day before you go for a hike is a good idea. As you sweat, you waft a sulfur compound, and bugs hate it. Alternatively, cut a clove in half and apply it to your skin. Be careful though, it occasionally
exacerbates your irritation, especially if it’s not diluted with coconut or olive oil. 4. Essential Oils - Tea tree oil and lavender are stellar options for bug bites. Put a wad of lotion in your palm and then 1 drop of Tea Tree, and 5 drops of Lavender essential oil. Dab this onto your wound and it’s instantly soothing. 5. Aloe Vera - Just slice open a fresh aloe leaf and apply the succulent’s gooey gel to the sting. Allow it to dry in place on your skin. The aloe plant’s anti-inf lammatory properties make it valuable for healing minor wounds and reducing risk of infection. 6. Basil - Basil isn’t just for pesto! for basil. This fragrant herb contains a chemical compound called eugenol, which relieves itchy, irritated skin. You can steep a tablespoon of dried herb (or 6 fresh leaves) in about 2 cups of water. Let it cool, then apply the basil-infused water to your skin with a compress. 7. Meat Tenderizer - Mix it with water to make a paste, then apply to the sting. It works on contact. Now you know the best ways to take care of yourself if you happen to get bit. Of course, it’s ideal to stay out of bug infested areas. Antihistamines and analgesics can be used for relief if necessary too. It’s smart to avoid wearing yellow in bee territory. Also, lighting a citronella candle (or using citronella bug spray) will keep insects away from your patio space.

BlueClaws:
Continued From Page 17
However, Howard righted himself, retiring 18 of his final 19 hitters. Howard, 22, was drafted by the Phillies in the second round in 2017 out of Cal-Poly San Luis Obispo where he was a walk-on. The Templeton. Calif., resident was 9-8 with a 3.78 earned run average during the regular season for the BlueClaws as they won the overall league title and the first
and second-half Northern Division championships. The 6-foot-3 Howard was second on the team in wins and paced the SAL in strikeouts with 147 in 112 innings. He was third on the club in innings pitched. He appeared in and started 23 games. He tossed one complete game. He allowed 101 hits, including six home runs, and 40 walks. He posted a 12.6 WHIP (walks and hits to innings pitched). Howard, a 200-pounder, is ranked 18th in
the Phillies’ minor league system by Baseball America. He began his professional career in 2017 with the Williamsport (Pa.) Crosscutters of the New York-Penn League, a short-season Class A circuit. He was 1-1 with a 4.45 earned run average in 28.1 innings in nine games. He whiffed 27 batters in his final 17 innings of the year. Howard received a $1.17 million signing bonus from the Phillies after being selected in the first-year player draft, according to mlb.com. The bonus was $373,800 under
slot. Philadelphia’s amateur scouting department rated Howard as the draft’s top right handed pitcher. Howard was 8-1 with a 1.95 earned run average in his final season at Cal-Poly where he struck out 97 and walked 23 in his final season. Howard threw his other no-hitter as a seventh grader in California. The BlueClaws scored the only run they needed in the bottom of the sixth in which Simon Muzziotti plated Jose Antequera with a two-out single to left-center field. “Obviously, it’s exciting,” Howard said. “It gives us momentum going into the next series and hopefully it’ll help us come away with a ring.” Blueclaws News Bites: Lakewood’s other no-hitters: Keith Bucktrot (seven innings, 2001), Floyd (nine innings, loss, 2002), Carlos Carrasco and Andy Barb (2006), Jeb Stefan, Ramon Ovideo and Chris Burgess (2013), Nick Fanti and Trevor Bettencourt (2017), Fanti (2017). Lakewood has advanced to the SAL Championship Series all five times it has qualified for postseason play. Lakewood, which won the playoffs in 2006, 2009 and 2010, is 20-7 all-time in postseason play. The BlueClaws threw a minor league baseball best 23 shutouts during the regular season in 2018 and the blanking of the Intimidators was their first shutout of the postseason. Lakewood was 87-51 overall (.630). It was 46-23 (.667) during the second half and 41-28 (.594) in the first half of the season. Lexington was 70-60 (.559) overall during the regular season. It won the second-half Southern Division title at 39-29 (.574) and was third in the division in the first half (37-31, .544).

Inside The Law Congratulations! You Have Just Won The Lottery...Or Have You?
Robert C. Shea Esq.
By Michael J. Deem, Esq., of R.C. Shea and Associates Today’s world is filled with scams. It’s becoming harder and harder to trust anyone. A new assault on victims is in the for m of L ot t e r y a nd Swe e p st a ke scams. These scams are becoming more and more common. They may come to you from social media, phone calls, mailings, e-mail and text messages-all saying that you have won money or pr i zes. T he sca m mer s may even try to impersonate public figures, police, FBI, Lottery and Officials. To make matters worse, they have also mastered the art of cloning otherwise legitimate web sites and social media profiles. So how do you know if your winnings are legitimate? Scammers like to ask for up-front payment, such as taxes, processing fe e s, del ive r y fe e s, legal fe e s or customer fees to collect your “winnings.” Any payment requested in advance should be a red f lag! The most common up-front payment request is a monetary transfer, because these are like cash. Other up-front payment schemes that are becoming popular include prepaid cards and iTunes gift cards because the scammers can access your balance if you give them the number from the back of the card or a PIN over the phone. Scammers may also ask that you send cash in the mail. Once you give them cash they are li kely to a sk for more a nd more. One trick the scammers use to entice
victims to send more Michael J. Deem m o n e y i s t o cl a i m that there is a larger ja ck p ot at st a ke or that there was some error or problem that ca n on ly be solve d w i t h m o r e m o n e y. T he scam mers may even th reaten violence. Never give these strangers your personal information. Don’t give them your banking information or credit card i nfor mat ion. T he scam mers will use this infor mation to make unauthorized charges to your credit card or access your bank account. The scammers can also sell your private information to other scammers. Some victims are asked to deposit fake checks and if that check bounces the victim will be responsible for the bounced check fee. If you have fallen victim to a scam you may be able to stop the damage. Report the matter to your financial institution, the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center, Local Police, the State Attorney General, The Federal Trade Commission and the US Postal Inspection Service. The litigation attorneys at the Law Offices of R.C. Shea & Associates handle most consumer fraud claims on a contingency basis. A contingency means if there is no recovery, there is no fee.

My Husband Is Addicted To Football!
Dear Joel, My husband and I had a really great summer. We took a nice vacation at the beach and made the most out of every weekend but now that the summer sun is fading away, I have to face a lonely life.

AMI Foundation Donates 270 Backpacks To Local Schools
By Kimberly Bosco OCEAN COUNTY – The Atlantic Medical Imaging (AMI) Foundation recently lent a helping hand to those local students who might not have school supplies for the start of the new school year. AMI’s 10th Annual Tools for Schools Drive donated 260 backpacks filled with school supplies to 10 local elementary schools and organizations. This year’s drive brought AMI’s total donations up to 2,700 backpacks. “Many New Jersey children face the prospect of arriving for their first day of school without the most basic of school supplies,” said Dr. Peggy
Avagliano, President of the AMI Foundation Board of Directors. “With the support of our physicians and employees, along with the community at large, we are so pleased to help provide these children with an equal opportunity at a quality education.” The drive took place before the start of the new school year. Donations were collected in blue baskets placed in all 12 of AMI’s locations throughout Atlantic, Cape May, Monmouth and Ocean Counties. The AMI Foundation even purchased the backpacks to carry the school supplies.

Associated Humane Societies Offers Fire Safety Tips For Pets
OCEAN COUNTY - It is estimated that about 500,000 pets are affected by house fires each year. Statistics show that about 20 percent of all house fires start between 4 and 8 a.m., when residents are sleeping. “To lose a family pet under any circumstances is devastating. To lose a pet in a fire is beyond words,” said Roseann Trezza, executive director, Associated Humane Societies/Popcorn Park. “Firefighters will attempt to save family pets, but they need to have an idea of where they are in the house and if there are pets at all.” Associated Humane Societies offers pet owners special decals that, when prominently placed in front and back doors or windows, will alert fire or rescue personnel of the type and number of animals inside the home or apartment in case of emergency. A decal is especially important where
there are several dwellings, like condominiums, apartments or townhouses so firefighters know which living quarters contain pets. The four inch square decals are designed in standard fire department colors of red and yellow, with black type. These will affix to almost any surface, and have space available to write information in permanent marker or ballpoint pen. Cost is $2 for two decals and can be purchased by mailing cash or check with a self-addressed, stamped envelope to Pet Decals, c/o Society, 124 Evergreen Ave., Newark, NJ 07114. And to help pet owners safeguard their pets and homes from fire and the damage it can cause, Associated Humane Societies offers the following tips: Be sure house numbers are clearly visible. In apartments, many animals have perished because fi refighters did not know which
houses or apartments had pets. Install smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors. It’s the single most important way to alert you and your loved ones of a hazardous condition. Place them on each level of your house. If you cannot afford one, contact your local fire department who will sometimes donate the devices. Keep burning candles out of the reach of pets and children and never leave burning candles unattended. A knocked over candle can ignite an entire house in a matter of moments. Consider opting for the many beautiful flameless candles now available. Check for loose wires and watch out for wire-chewers. Some curious cats, dogs and even rabbits will chew on electrical wires. Protect the wires or make them inaccessible. Make other electric appliances are turned
off and unplugged before leaving the house. Keep the clothes dryer lint-free and take extra precautions when drying foam-backed rugs, athletic shoes and other non-cloth items. If you leave the house without your pets, keep them in areas or rooms that are near entrances where firefighters will find them. Keep collars and leashes where you can easily grab them if you need to evacuate your home. Make sure your dog or cat is wearing proper identification or is microchipped. In case he or she runs out the door, your chances are much better of having your pet safely returned to you. Microchipping is safe, painless and a great way to identify missing pets. However, the information on the chip is only obtainable and useful if you remember to register with the microchip agency.
Home Decor Craft Club Seeks New Members
WHITING – Home Decor and More is a craft club located in Crestwood Village V, 325 Schoolhouse Road, in the BC Room. Home Decor and More meets the first and third Monday and every Tuesday of the month from 1 to 4 p.m. Mondays and the third Tuesday are scrapbook days. If you
have pictures you want to put in an album, members can show you how to preserve them for future generations. On Tuesdays members work on general crafts, some that are easy and some that are more complicated. Many materials are supplied by the club. On the last Tuesday of each month, a short
meeting is held and then there is extra time to finish a project, make a card or just socialize. Membership is $5 a year and $1 each week. This helps to offset the cost of materials, cookies and coffee, which are provided every week. If you are new to the area, come and join
the club, which is open to everyone, and a friendly group of ladies looking to expand club membership. Projects for May include making a general card and scrapbooking. If you would like more information, call Maureen at 732-849-5092 or 973-626-3704 and please leave a message.

OCVTS Performing Arts Receives $400,000 Donation
By Kimberly Bosco TOMS RIVER – The Ocean County Vocational Technical School (OCVTS) Performing Arts Academy has received a $400,000 donation in support of performing arts education from the Gia Maione Prima Foundation, Inc.

Alcoeur Gardens Celebrates 100th Birthday
By Kimberly Bosco TOMS RIVER – Mae Trustman, resident at Alcoeur Gardens Residential Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care Community, celebrated a remarkable milestone recently. She celebrated her 100th birthday, surrounded by friends and family on September 7 at Alcoeur Gardens. Mae Trustman, born on September 9, 1918, grew up in Brooklyn, NY. It was there that
she later met the love of her life, William Trustman, a machinist by trade. Mae and William married and moved to the countryside in High Falls, NY. As a waitress in a tea room, Mae worked often and took care of her husband. The pair never had children, but they did travel the US and visit wonderful places. Later on in life, the pair settled down in Toms River. Mae then moved into Alcoeur
Gardens, her most recent home. The staff at Alcoeur Gardens describes Mae as a “social butterfly” and a happy, loving trivia buff with a penchant for shows like Animal Planet and Jeopardy. Mae showed her love for fashion by wearing skirts, high heels, lipstick and red nail polish. While she may not dress in these anymore, she continues to follow the same philosophy: “cleanliness is next to godliness.”

PROFESSIONAL PROFILE ADVANCED FOOT & ANKLE SPECIALISTS, PC
To drag one’s feet is to proceed slowly, reluctantly or without enthusiasm. To sweep someone off their feet is to overwhelm with charm. And to stand on one’s own feet is to be independent and self-supporting. These are just a few examples of the many sayings that refer to the feet. But some may ask, why feet? Simply put, because the feet are the foundation of the body and just like any other structure, the body without a strong foundation will begin to suffer possible serious problems, making proper foot care of the utmost importance. Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists, conveniently located in the Whiting Stop & Shop Shopping Center at 40 0 Lacey Road, Suite 9B, offers patients the exceptional care they deserve in the latest state-of-the-art facility by highly experienced and caring professionals. Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists was originally founded by Dr. Scott Amoss in 2000 and was formerly located in Toms River. In 2005, seeing there was a great need for his ser vices in the area, Dr. Amoss relocated his practice to
Whiting. In February of 2014, with the need for more space to accommodate his expanding practice and to house newer, more technically advanced equipment, Advanced Foot & Ankle relocated to its present beautifully decorated, comfortable, clean and spacious facility. The personable Dr. Amoss is a highly-educated professional who is a lifelong resident of the Jersey Shore. The happily married father of three studied and received an undergraduate degree in chemistry at Cook College at Rutgers University. He became a member of a National Chemistry Honor Society and worked for several years as a chemist before he decided to pursue a career in medicine. Dr. Amoss attended the New York College of Podiatric Medicine where he finished fourth in his class of over 100 graduates and subsequently graduated cum laude in 2000. He is also the recipient of many honors and accolades, including Deans List recognition during all four years while attending the New York College of Podiatric Medicine. After completing a twoyear surgical residency at
William B. Kessler Memorial Hospital in Hammonton, New Jersey, Dr. Amoss received extensive training in fields such as orthopedics, vascular, plastic and reconstructive surgery, emergency medicine, dermatology and radiology. Dr. Amoss was also on staff at the South Jersey Wound Care Center, the largest facility in South Jersey. His expertise and training has led him to be a Board Qualified Foot Surgeon by the American Board of Podiatric Surgery. He is also a Diplomat American Board of Podiatric Medicine as well as a Certified Wound Specialist. Dr. Amoss is currently on staff at Community Medical Center in Toms River and the Manchester Surgery Center, where he performs inpatient and outpatient surgery. He is also a member of the New Jersey Podiatric Medical Society and American Podiatric Medical Association. The impressive qualifications at Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists are not limited to Dr. Amoss. Those on his staff are all Certified Podiatric Medical Assistants through the American Society of Podiatric Medical Assistants. Dr. Amoss and
his team of professionals treat all of the common foot ailments including hammertoes, bunions, athletes’ foot, ingrown nails and heel pain. “We treat all ages and everything from the knee down,” said Dr. Amoss, including P.A.D., or peripheral arterial disease, a common circulatory problem which narrows the arteries and reduces blood flow, causing symptoms such as leg pain when walking. This condition can also reduce blood flow to your heart and brain, as well as your legs. Treatment for Achilles tendon, ankle instability, ankle sprains and sports injuries of the ankle and foot are also addressed. The new facility also offers o n - site surger y, X-rays and biopsies, often finding sk in c anc e r that others may have missed. “With diabetes being on the rise, proper foot care for those with diabetes is a major concern,” continued Dr. Amoss. “With a diabetic foot, a small wound can be slow to heal, lead to
infection and sometimes severe consequences including amputation. However, at Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists, surgery is always a last resort.” Although prestigious qualifications are always important when choosing a physician, impressive qualifications in the compassion department are of equal importance. From the pleasant voice that answers your call to the smile that greets you as you walk through the door of Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists, there is a genuine feeling of caring, concern and compassion. You are never just a number at Advanced Foot & Ankle. Dr. Amoss and his dedicated team all agree that the most important and best part of their job is making a positive impact
on people’s lives. In short, their mission is “Making people feel better,” said Podiatric Assistant Kristen Valentino. All of your foot care needs are taken care of at Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists, which also offers a large and stylish selection and expert fitting of orthopedic and diabetic shoes and sandals. They even carry specially formulated nail polish for those suffering from fungal infections. Extras and details such as these are what makes Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists stand out from the rest.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen Chicken Dinner Winner: Try A Time-Honored Method For Cooking Juicy Roast Chicken By Wolfgang Puck
I always think of early September as the start of the sit-down dinner season. The kids are back in school, and autumn is coming fast. So it’s the perfect time for everyone to gather around the table for a great meal, whether you’re dining with your partner and the children or you’re inviting friends over for a casual meal. One of the most popular main dishes for any meal like this is roast chicken. Whole roast poultry makes a beautiful presentation, and chicken is so widely popular that just about everyone will be happy with the menu. (Of course, you’ll also want to serve plenty of delicious side dishes like roasted or sauteed vegetables, a grain pilaf or some pasta, and a salad, not only to round out the meal but also to satisfy any non-meat-eaters at the table.) What’s the best way to roast a chicken? Do a quick search through your favorite cookbooks, magazines or websites and you’ll find many different sets of guidelines for achieving perfection, suggesting various temperatures, techniques, seasonings and all sorts of other tricks. So, rather than attempting to covering them all here, I thought it might be fun to suggest a time-honored alternative approach that will not only yield deliciously flavorful, juicy results but is also delightfully different: roasting the chicken in a salt crust. If you’ve heard at all about salt-crust roasting, it was probably in association with Chinese cuisine. Cooking whole poultry or fish completely enclosed in a mixture of equal parts coarse salt and flour, combined with enough water to make a stiff but pliable dough, traces back centuries to Asian kitchens in regions where salt was plentiful and acted as an effective preservative. Molded around a chicken or another large piece of food, the crust seals in all its juice and flavors while it cooks; and just enough of the crust’s key ingredient mingles with the food inside to yield perfectly seasoned - but, surprisingly, not too salty - results. It’s simple to adapt that technique to other cuisines by using different aromatic seasonings than the ginger, scallions and garlic you might find in Asia. In the following recipe, I include sprigs of fresh tarragon, a favorite French companion to roast chicken; and, to add even more flavor, I also prepare a vinaigrette seasoned with Dijon mustard and more fresh tarragon to use as a simple sauce for each serving. Once you’ve tried the recipe my way, feel free to substitute your own favorite seasonings and sauces. I hope you’ll try salt-crust roasting soon, whether for family or friends. It’s surprisingly easy, and it is certain to inspire the admiration of everyone gathered around your dinner table. ROAST TA R R AGON- SCENTED CHICKEN IN A SALT CRUST WITH MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE Serves 6 to 8 2 whole chickens, each about 3 pounds (1.5 kg) 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 sprigs fresh tarragon 3 pounds (1.5 kg) coarse sea salt or kosher salt 3 pounds (1.5 kg) all-purpose flour About 3 cups (750 mL) water 2 large eggs, lightly beaten, for egg wash Mustard vinaigrette (recipe follows) Season the insides of the chickens with pepper. Gently inserting your clean fingers through the neck opening of each bird, gently loosen the skin covering the breast meat, taking care not to tear the skin. Carefully insert a fresh tarragon sprig between the skin and meat of each breast half. Preheat the oven to 350 F (175 C). In a large mixing bowl, stir together the salt and flour. Stir in enough of the water to form a stiff dough. Divide the dough into two equal pieces. For each chicken, divide the dough half into two pieces, one slightly larger than the other. With a rolling pin, roll out the smaller piece of dough to form a circle slightly larger than the chicken and about 1/2 inch (12 mm) thick. Place the dough on one half of a large roasting pan and set a chicken on top. Roll out the larger piece of dough to a circle large enough to generously cover the chicken and about 1/2 inch (12 mm) thick, and drape it over the chicken. Brush the edges of the dough with some water and pinch the edges together to seal them well so no air can escape. Repeat with the other chicken and remaining dough. With the egg wash, evenly brush the tops of the dough-covered chickens. Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and roast until the crust is deep golden brown, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Remove the chickens from the oven and, with large, sturdy spatulas, carefully transfer them to a large serving platter or two smaller platters. At the table, use a meat mallet and tongs to break and remove the crusts, taking care to avoid the hot steam. Transfer the chickens to a cutting board, and cut into quarters. Spoon some of the vinaigrette onto serving plates and place the chicken on top. Serve immediately, passing the remaining vinaigrette for guests to help themselves. MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE Makes about 2 1/2 cups (625 mL) 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard 2 teaspoons minced fresh tarragon 2 tablespoons sherry wine vinegar or other good-quality wine vinegar 2 large egg yolks 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 large pinch freshly ground black pepper 2 cups (500 mL) safflower oil Put the mustard, tarragon, vinegar, egg yolks, salt and pepper in a mixing bowl. With a wire whisk, briskly stir together the ingredients until thoroughly blended. While whisking briskly and continuously, slowly drizzle in the oil until it is fully incorporated and the dressing has formed a thick, smooth emulsion. Set aside until serving.
