Allison Brutka Is (In Her Words) A “Magical Cancer Unicorn”
Community News! Government
FOR BREAKING NEWS
By Jennifer Peacock BRICK – Allison Brutka’s singular focus has been her education. Last May, she completed her bachelor’s degree in social work, and this past May, earned her master’s degree. –Photo by Jennifer Peacock She’s waiting on the state to process Allison Brutka on a recent visit to Ocean Medical Center. her license, but she’s not counting the time. Yes, actually, she is. Three months and counting. “I am interested in working with veterans with PTSD and other victims of trauma. I’m a very trauma-focused social worker,” Brutka said. The Brick Township native, 41, has lived in Lanoka Harbor since 2014 with her mother and cat, Agent Phil Coulson. Marvel fans know that the character (not Brutka’s cat) was killed by Loki but was then saved by Nick Fury’s efforts. But Brutka knew it wasn’t her course load or fascination with trauma that was making her feel…off. Her overall health, aside from life’s –Photo by Jennifer Peacock usual bumps and scrapes and bruises, Nurse Oncologist Cheryl Cappetta at Ocean Medical Center after has been fine. She was going to the gym, eating meeting up again with Allison Brutka.
very healthy, but not losing a n y weight. She faithfully logged her food intake and workouts and measurements. She had been going to her primary care physician, complaining that the scale wasn’t moving downward, and was instead gaining weight, especially around her abdomen. That doctor sent Brutka for bloodwork, which always came back within normal ranges. “You must be eating something you’re not putting down, because it’s not about a woman realizing something is wrong with her body. It’s a fat person trying to hide that they’re eating cake is what I got from him,” Brutka recalled. “You’re just not telling me that you’re eating something bad. And that was not the case.” This went on for about six months. Her physician finally decided to send her to a gynecologist. “I’ll never forget the last day I saw him before my diagnosis. He didn’t want to look at any of my logs. He (Brutka - See Page 8)

Brutka:
Continued From Page 1 was just like, ‘You’re just a histrionic woman who wants to lose weight faster.’ Just kind of blew me off. He gave me a card to my gynecologist and at the same time gave me a calorie-counter book in large print,” Brutka said. “I don’t know why the large print insults me so much more. But it was just one more straw on the camel’s back, that, ‘I still don’t believe you. Count your calories better.’” She had better rapport with the gynecologist. “She actually took the time to talk to me, which was refreshing and wonderful.” She sent her for more testing, including an MRI. When Brutka finished at the MRI center, the office staff told her she would hear back from the doctor in about three days. Brutka got a call from her doctor an hour later. What’s your availability tomorrow? “She said, ‘I feel terrible, this is the second time I’m seeing you, and I have to tell that you have cancer,’” Brutka said. That was March 2017. She was diagnosed with ovarian stage IIIC, which means the cancer was in one or both ovaries or fallopian tubes, or that it had spread to organs outside the pelvis, but not inside the liver or spleen, according to the American Cancer Society. There are four stages of ovarian cancer, Stage IV and its variations (IVA and IVB) being the final stages. There is no Stage IIID. Brutka’s cancer was on the left side of her torso and had adhered itself to her abdomen.
“Originally, I knew so little about cancer, I thought that there were five stages, and then when I found out there were four, I thought, whoa, that just got a little more serious,” Brutka said. Ovarian cancer is known as “the silent killer.” No one in Brutka’s family had it - hence the nickname “Magical Cancer Unicorn” - and although those with family and personal histories of breast, ovarian and colon cancer are at an increased risk, the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition said every woman is at risk. Pap smears don’t detect the cancer. Women who experience increased bloating, pelvic/abdominal pain, trouble eating or feeling full quickly, and feeling the need to urinate more urgently or often should be checked by their OB-GYN. The Coalition recommends every woman age 18 and older have an annual vaginal exam, women age 35 and older a rectovaginal exam. Those with a higher risk for ovarian cancer should have transvaginal sonograms and CA-125 blood tests, which detect a protein produced by ovarian cancer cells, though those tests can produce false positives. Women with a family history of breast or ovarian cancers should consider genetic testing for BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations. Those genes help suppress tumors, but when mutated, lead to an increased chance of cancer development. According to the National Cancer Institute, women should consider genetic testing if they were diagnosed with breast cancer before age 50; they have cancer in both breasts;
family members have been diagnosed with both breast and ovarian cancer; there are multiple breast cancers in one family; there are cases of male breast cancer in the family; or the family is of Ashkenazi Jewish ethnicity. Yet, none of this described what Brutka knew of her family health history. Although, after her diagnosis, she did discover she is BRCA1-positive, which means she has a 70 percent chance of developing breast cancer. “That numb hits you, that shock. But at the same time, such a vindication that I was not crazy. I was not a histrionic woman who just wanted to lose weight faster. Something was wrong. Something was very wrong,” Brutka said. No, she didn’t call her primary care physician. The what ifs and hows raced through Brutka’s mind on her way home from the gynecologist. She did have to sit her mother down once she got back home. Her mother instantly started crying and hugging her and telling her it was going to be okay. But it was Brutka who found herself comforting others, that she would be okay. She believed it. “I worked too hard. I’ve got too much to do to let cancer stop me,” Brutka said. “There are too many people I want to help.” She graduated with her BSW May 9, 2017, observed “Liquid Diet Day” May 10, and had her surgery May 11. Her gynecological oncologist is Karim ElSahwi, M.D., whose practice is in Neptune. Surgery was performed at Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune; she underwent
a full hysterectomy and had several lymph nodes and her appendix removed as well. She endured eight rounds of chemotherapy at Ocean Medical Center in Brick, all part of the Hackensack Meridian Health group. That’s where Brutka met “the amazing Cheryls,” one of whom is oncology nurse Cheryl Cappetta, BSN, RN, OCN. “I had [Allison] for her first treatment,” Cappetta said. “I’ve been doing this for a while, so when I meet a person for the first time, I try to assess quickly about their personality. Some people want to know everything, and some people want to know the basics. I remember Allison, immediately bubbly, especially considering the situation. She just seemed very happy. We hit it off right away. That’s helpful, with a caregiver and patient.” Cappetta has always had an interest in oncology - the study and treatment of tumors - even before she knew the word for her interest. Her father had neck cancer before she was born, and prostate cancer later in life. But she remembers being allowed to watch the 1983 Meryl Streep film “Silkwood,” about Karen Silkwood, a union whistleblower at the Kerr-McGee plutonium plant where workers were exposed to radiation. “I was a kid and probably shouldn’t have seen the movie, because it left a lasting impression on me, but she’d had extraneous radiation, and she got cancer, and I remember asking, ‘What it is? Why does it hurt?’ I’ve always had an interest in it,” Cappetta said. She worked in several hospitals and (Brutka - See Page 9)

Brutka:
Continued From Page 8 oncology practices, and now works in the oncology department at Ocean Medical Center. “It’s the patients. People think it’s doom and gloom, but the patients are so grateful, so kind. They’re upbeat. They just have a different perspective on life,” Cappetta said. Not every patient names her port. Brutka’s is Diego. “I watch my team, and I love oncology, and I think what happens is, their robustness with life teaches us about life,” Laura Zimmerman, MA, OCN, NE-BC, HN-BC, Oncology Site Director, Hackensack Meridian Health Ocean Medical Center, said. She’s Cappetta’s boss. “I’m so grateful for that, even though they’re grateful for us, I’m grateful for them, because it’s just an awakening how we walk in the world and how we should be interacting with other people. They teach us a lot.” The relationships are real. Brutka and Cappetta are the same age, and when they saw each other that day of this interview, they hugged for a good minute before heading upstairs to be interviewed. They paired off and bantered in a short hand like old school friends do. “I see my team struggle as people are struggling with the disease, but yet, I see my team holding a space for them. I don’t know how else to say it, but you hold the space for the people that have any kind of cancer,” Zimmerman said. “They do have a connection, and it’s very caring and loving.” So Brutka continues to follow up with Dr. ElSahwi, get her port flushed. She gets a mammogram every six months, and has already undergone one biopsy. According the American Cancer Society, in the United States in 2018, about 22,240 women will receive a new diagnosis of ovarian cancer. About 14,070 women will die from it.
The Manchester Times, September 22, 2018, Page 9 The Ovarian Cancer Research Fund Alliance states that women diagnosed at Stage III have to 70 to 90 percent recurrence rate. While it won’t technically be ovarian cancer - as Brutka no longer has ovaries - cells may continue to live in her body. “I don’t think of my cancer as a battle, like you’re going to fight it, it’s a battle. I don’t think that way, because then if, when I still had the lymph nodes lighting up [note: after her initial surgery, Brutka was found to have lymph nodes with cancer cells, and had to go through two rounds of chemo, from six to eight], and had to have more rounds, that could cause feelings of inadequacy. I didn’t fight hard enough. I wasn’t strong enough. To combat that, I don’t think of it as a fight. I think of it as a journey,” Brutka said. “So, going on with this journey, there are these milestones, and I know six months being cancer free was a big one, because that means that the cancer was affected by the chemotherapy. Because if it comes back, then they have to do something else, and it can get dicey, so it’s good to know that at least if the cancer comes back, we can fight it with the chemotherapy. “I get yelled at a lot, because I say, ‘When the cancer comes back.’ They’re like, ‘No, if. No, if. You have to think if.’ Well, I’m also a realist,” Brutka continued. “Ovarian does not like to stay in remission. I’m aware of the recurrent rate for IIIC. I’m aware of the five-year survival rate. I’m aware of all that. I feel like it’s my job to know that kind of stuff.” Brutka said she knows people Google information regarding their illness. She urged them to look up what the words mean, not what it means if you have a certain illness or diagnosis. And stick with reputable sites: American Cancer Society, Mayo Clinic, National Ovarian Cancer Coalition, National Institutes of Health. “Make sure they’re legit sites and peer reviewed,” Brutka said. “Not IHaveCancerOMG.com.”

Letters To The Editor For MacArthur, Rich People Come First My mailbox has been stuffed in recent weeks with all kinds of malicious and false propaganda emanating from the Tom MacArthur re-election campaign. In these mailers, TMac claims he lowered taxes for New Jersey’s households. That may be true in some instances. But there are many others, including myself, whose taxes are going up. Losing the full deduction for state and local taxes is bad enough, but the Trump/ MacArthur tax bill also eliminates personal exemptions, which means those who itemize deductions, regardless of whether they pay state and local taxes or not, will see their effective tax rate go up. TMac knows this tax bill is bad for New Jersey as he was the only Republican Congressman from our state to vote in favor of it, all four of the other Republican Congressmen (Leonard Lance, Chris Smith, Frank LoBiando and Rodney Frelinghuysen) voted against it because they knew it was bad for New Jersey. The Trump/MacArthur tax bill not only raises taxes on some individual taxpayers but raises the tax rate for small corporations as well. In prior years small corporations paid a fifteen percent tax rate, but thanks to Donald Trump and Tom MacArthur these same corporations will have to pay a twenty-one percent tax rate, the same as the biggest corporations. D e s pit e t he Tr u m p/ MacArthur tax increases, the biggest hit to many New Jersey bank accounts are the humongous increases, as much as 30 percent for health insurance premiums, especially for individual policyholders with preexisting or chronic conditions. This is the direct result of Republican efforts, led by Tom MacArthur, to repeal the Affordable Care Act
Letters To The Editor and eliminate protection nal Chambers through the for people with serious and lasting medical conditions. A significant number of New Jersey residents who live in the third congressional district have lost thousands of dollars in tax increases and higher health insurance premiums as a direct result of the policies implemented by the Trump/MacArthur Administration. They should remember this when they vote in November. Ken Bank Barnegat
MacArthur’s Bipartisanship Is What Washington Needs ‘Bipartisanship’ is a word of ten touted in today’s polarized political sphere with little substance to backup such a claim. The Lugar Center and Georgetown University’s McCourt School of Public Policy created a ranking system to grade each Congressperson on how regularly they work across the aisle in Washington. During this polarizing time in American politics, I am proud that my congressman, Tom MacArthur, was ranked one of most bipartisan members in the House of Representatives. It is no secret that New Jersey Congressional District 3 is a swing district. Many different opinions range from the Delaware River in Burlington County across to the Jersey shore towns in Ocean County. MacArthur’s strong bipartisanship rating is a reflection of his understanding and willingness to represent all walks of life in his district. He focuses on solving real problems, such as fighting the south Jersey opioid crisis and keeping Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst open, and isn’t afraid to reach across the aisle to get work done. MacArthur even enters Congressio-
democrat ent rance and mingles with his counterparts before going to his seat. Tom MacArthur is a bipartisan problem solver. Tom MacArthur’s opponent, Andy Kim, will resist everything Republicans do, simply because he is an extreme partisan activist. There is enough gridlock in Washington – we don’t need Andy Kim to add more.
MacArthur Fighting Opioid Epidemic
I recently received a deceitful f lyer in the mail attacking Andy Kim (a candidate for Congress) as a tax dodger among other things. I have seen u nt r ut h f u l a d s o n T V about Kim also. Who is behind these unscr upulous attacks? None other t ha n ou r Cong ressma n Tom MacArthur. Apparently, he cannot run on his own record but has to attack his opponent. MacArthur’s record shows his allegiance to Trump even if it goes agai nst us, his own constituents. He also has ref used to hold town hall meetings. He wou ld g l a d ly t a ke away our health care and protection for pre-existing conditions and was Trump’s right-hand man trying to accomplish this. MacArthur represents big money, not we the people, which he has proven time and time again with his voting. Andy Kim has served as a national security official under presidents of both parties. He is a Rhodes Scholar. He helped take on ISIS and advised U.S. generals in Afghanistan. He will be the spokesperson for middle class America.
Our police and first responders wage a battle against the disease of addiction everyday. It has ravaged the south Jersey community, showing no mercy, sparing no age, race, or socioeconomic status. No family is immune in Burlington and Ocean counties - we all have a loved one or friend who is suffering or passed away due to their drug addiction. In Washington D.C., Congressman Tom MacArthur is fighting for emergency responders to ensure we have resources we need to fight the flow of illegal drugs in our community. From 2015 through the winter of 2018, almost 24,000 lives in New Jersey have been saved due to the timely use of the overdose reversal drug naloxone by emergency officials (commonly known under the trade name Narcan). Congressman MacArthur, who is the co-chair of the Bipartisan Heroin Task Force, has worked tirelessly to break the stigma of addiction and prioritize funding for first responders through the Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act (CARA). An all-encompassing bill tackling addiction from many angles, CARA expanded the accessibility of Narcan to local law enforcement, helping to make our communities safer. After CARA’s passage into law, Tom MacArthur supports CARA 2.0 which would authorize $1 billion to fight opioids and provide enhanced training for our first responders. Tom MacArthur truly values our police and emergency responders, knowing they are the brave members of society who run toward problems while others flee. He has the best interest of first responders and all dealing with the opioid crisis at heart.

Minimum Wage Of $15 Needed In NJ From The Desk Of The
Governor Phil Murphy NEW BRUNSWICK – Recognizing the need for working families to receive livable wages, Governor Phil Murphy and Speaker Craig Coughlin toured Eli-
jah’s Promise and expressed their support for a $15 minimum wage. “Adjusted for cost of living, New Jersey’s minimum wage is the 5th-most insuf-
ficient in the nation,” said Gover nor Phil Mur phy. “That is unacceptable. New Jerseyans should not have to live paycheck to paycheck, in some cases deciding between whether to put food on the table or keep the lights on. The path to a stronger and fairer New Jersey includes raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour and ensuring fairness and opportunity for everyone in our state.”
“Anyone working hard at a full-time job should, at the least, be able to provide their family with the basics - a roof over their family’s head, food on the table and clothes on their back,” said Assembly Speaker Craig Coughlin. “I am committed to ramping up the minimum wage to $15 and will continue to work with my caucus, Senate President Sweeney and Governor Murphy on a responsible path towards
raising the wages and standard of living for working, middle class New Jerseyans.” “I am looking forward to working with Governor Murphy and Speaker Coughlin to see that New Jersey increases the minimum wage to $15 an hour,” said Senate President Steve Sweeney. “It is the right thing to do for working people and the smart thing to do for the economy.”
By raising the minimum wage to $15, Gover nor Murphy believes we can grow and protect the middle class and working families. These efforts to empower workers in our state will boost productivity and grow the economy. Elijah’s Promise is committed to ending hunger, providing education and jobs in the food industry, and offering social services to those in need.
Locals Lead Monmouth’s Opening Win By Chris Christopher WEST LONG BRANCH - Ex-local high school players contributed to the Monmouth University football team’s 56-28 victory over Hampton University on Saturday at Kessler Stadium. Wide receiver Vinny Grasso, a graduate student out of Monsignor Donovan (now Donovan Catholic), scored one touchdown in the Sept. 8 game in front of an announced crowd of 3,092 fans. Tymere Berry, a redshirt junior defensive back from Toms River South, intercepted one pass and added three solo tackles and one assist as the Hawks evened their record at 1-1 with the non-conference win. Senior defensive back Matt Castronuova, a former Jackson Memorial player competing on special teams, t ur ned in a touchdown saving tackle. Freshman wide receiver Eddie Morales, of Howell, seeing action as a utility player, made two solo tackles and broke up one pass. The blocking of fifth-year senior offensive lineman Ryan Wetzel, a Freehold resident who played for Colts Neck, helped pave the way for sophomore running back Pete Guerriero, who rushed for career-high 209 yards and scoring three touchdowns on 21 carries.
The Hawks, who won their sixth straight home game dating back to last season at their one-year-old $35 million venue, rallied from a 14-0 first-quarter deficit, burying the Pirates under a 28-0 avalanche for a 28-14 halftime lead. “It wasn’t exactly the way we wanted to start it,” Monmouth coach Kevin Callahan said. “I felt we handled that adversity very well and had the game in control. There was tremendous explosiveness on the part of our offense. When we were down 14-0, we said, ‘Hey, we’ve gotta keep playing. Settle down and do your job. Then we clicked on offense and regained confidence that transcended to the defense. The next thing we knew, we were up 42-14.” “Once we get rolling, we get clicking,” said Guerriero, a 5-foot-10, 190-pounder. Devell Jones, a 6-foot, 235-pound senior running back, opened the assault with a 4-yard touchdown run over the right side with 2:42 left in the first quarter. Matt Mosquera followed with his first of four extra point kicks to cut the deficit to 14-7. Jones’ touchdown capped an 8-play, 73-yard drive that consumed 4:29. Guerriero pulled the Hawks to within 14-14 with 14:06 to
go in the first half, racing 28 yards. Jones, breaking several tackles, bulled over the left side for a touchdown from 2 yards to send the winners in front to stay 21-14 with 4:01 remaining in the first half. Guerriero, a 5-foot-10, 190-pounder, pushed the lead to 28-14 when he ripped through a huge hole over the right side of the Hawks’ line and sped 67 yards. “I saw green,” Guerriero said. “I have no other answer for that question. My line and my tight end did a good job of blocking inside the box.” The onslaught continued in the second half in which the Hawks scored on their first two possessions en route to 42 straight points. Bahar, who threw for a career-high 326 yards, connected with senior tight end Jake Powell on a 37-yard touchdown pass for a 35-14 lead with 13:41 to play in the third quarter. Grasso set up the score with an 8-yard run on a reverse around right end to the Pirates’ 37. Monmouth extended its lead to 42-14 when Powell hauled in a 10-yard scoring pass from Bahar with 8:59 to go in the third quarter. Displaying shifty moves as he faked out five defenders, Grasso caught a 25-yard touchdown pass from Bahar to widen the
Hawks’ lead to 55-28 with 8:53 to play in the game. “It was a quick hitting play on third and five,” said Grasso, a 5-foot-7, 175-pounder. “I beat their mike linebacker and made people miss. Bahar did a good job of getting me the ball. It was a good call by (coach Callahan).” Grasso set up a touchdown with a 19-yard dash on a reverse to the left side for a first down, putting the ball on the Hawks’ 47. Guerriero followed with a 1-yard run for a 49-21 lead on the final play from scrimmage of the third quarter. Grasso finished the game with two catches for 33 yards. “Vinny has been with us for five years,” Callahan said. “He has made a lot of cont r ibutions to our program. He has been a dynamic player for us. He has made contributions as a receiver and as a ball carrier. He has the ability to make big plays with the ball in his hands. “Vinny is a great leader. He is well respected. The other players respect him and emulate him. They want to be like Vinny Grasso.” Berry picked off a pass in the end zone with Monmouth ahead 56-28 with 5:26 to play in the game. Berry and Wetzel are the Hawks’ captains. They
are joined by two game captains selected during the week. Berry, a 6-foot-1 175-pounder, was a firstteam All-Big South Conference first team selection prior to this season. “I couldn’t believe it when I heard,” Berry said. “I am just blessed with the opportunity. I just want to live up to the standard as captain. I’ve been working hard and trying to lead by example for the younger guys. I am just glad that they see that in me and they want to follow my lead.” Guerriero shredded the Pirates (1-1) for 145 yards on 12 carries in the first half. Monmouth junior quarterback Kenji Bahar completed seven of 13 passes for 185 first-half yards. His favorite receiver was senior wideout Reggie White Jr., who caught four passes for 103 yards. Bahar completed passes to four receivers in the first half on Military and First Responders Appreciation Day. Castronuova temporarily saved a first-half touchdow n when he t ack led Hampton redshirt junior Ronald Bell at the Pirates’ 40-yard line on the opening kickoff. Hampton, which scored on two of its first three possessions, answered with a 32yard touchdown pass from senior quarterback Delmon Williams to Bell with 13:05
left in the opening quarter. Fresh man Evan Lomax kicked his first of two extra points in the opening half for a 7-0 lead. The Pirates stretched their lead to 14-0 with 7:19 to play in the first quarter when Williams tossed a screen pass to the left side to sophomore wide receiver Antonio Graham, resulting in a 70-yard touchdown. Bahar connected on 15 of 26 passes for 326 yards and three touchdowns on the day. White Jr. caught five passes for 145 yards. “We were very balanced on our offensive attack,” Callahan said. “It was far from a perfect game. We have to pay attention to the details and to the finer points of the game. An awful lot occurred today that we can build upon. Winning today was important. We’re taking it one win at a time. We have to keep moving forward.” We t z e l , a 6 - f o o t - 4 285-pounder, was a preseason all-conference selection. “It is incredible,” he said. “This is my fifth year and now I get to be a captain. It’s a credit to our program. I’m here to take on this leadership role the best way I can.” Scoring summary: Bell (H) 32 pass from Williams (Lomax k ick), G raham (Locals - See Page 18)

–Photo by Jennifer Peacock Prosecutor Joseph Coronato, right, with First Attorney General Jennifer Davenport, describes the multi-department drug arrest. By Jennifer Peacock OCEAN COUNTY – He’s been looked up to by other state prosecutors and agency heads throughout the state for his recognized work against the opioid crisis plaguing New Jersey. Back in February, county and state organizations urged now-governor Phil Murphy, a Democrat, to keep Chris Christie-appointed Republican Joseph Coronato on the job as Ocean County Prosecutor. But Coronato is out. Murphy’s choice, Bradley Billhimer, is in, as of Oct. 8. Also leaving is his director of public affairs, Al Della Fave. Della Fave had this message on his social media account Monday night, confirming his departure from the office. “Bitter sweet feelings today filming what most likely will be the last public statement for OCPO, barring (God forbid) any unforeseen calamities, as we enter the final three weeks of Ocean County Prosecutor Joseph Coronato’s appointment. Been a great ride in terms of the outstanding enforcement accomplishments, initiatives and statewide firsts implemented over the last five years. OCPO has never been in better shape,” Della Fave wrote. “I was truly blessed to have been a part of it. Nothing better than going out on top. No mouthpiece fluff – just fact. I thank Prosecutor Coronato and all the great folks at OCPO for making going to work so fulfilling and fun.” Coronato spoke to Jersey Shore Online Many Styles & Colors to Choose From!

back in February when it was first discussed that he might not be asked to stay on as prosecutor. “It’s a privilege and honor to be the prosecutor. It’s really the best job,” Coronato said. “I’ve instituted programs - as hard as it is to believe five years have gone by as quickly as they have - and I’d like to finish out some of the programs I’ve instituted. It’s not that easy to get them started, and it would be great to be reappointed and have another five years to finish out a lot of the work that I’ve done. So, the answer is if given the opportunity, I’d like to continue to serve, but that’s a little bit out of my hands.” Ocean County was the first county in the state to equip its officers with Narcan, a nasal naloxone spray for emergency treatment of suspected opioid overdose. Coronato’s office has many firsts to combat opioid use: the emergency room overdose recovery program; Blue HART program, used by seven county police departments to assist drug users for recovery; pawn shop registry database, which tracks known users to stop them from selling goods to feed their habit; K-9s in school to assure Drug Free School Zones; and training for school nurses in how to use Narcan. No official announcement has come from Murphy’s office about Billhimer’s appointment, although he appears to be the heir apparent. He’s a Toms River lawyer and former Democrat candidate for State Assembly.

New Assistant Superintendent Named For OCVTS
By Jennifer Peacock OCEAN COUNTY – Michael B. Maschi, Ed.D., has been named Assistant Superintendent of Ocean County Vocational Technical School. Maschi is a licensed clinical social worker who served as Director of Special Services in Lacey schools since 2012. That department serves more 1,000 special needs students and their families. He started his career, however, working in healthcare for those with substance abuse issues and mental health disorders. He transitioned to education with the Barnegat Township School District. He then worked in Little Silver before going to Lacey.
“I have been incredibly impressed with the OCVTS’ work since I moved to Ocean County in 2004. Knowing that meeting the career and technical needs of a diverse population of students requires collaboration, consultation, and meaningful partnerships with our Ocean County community. I look forward to working closely with everyone to continue to provide outstanding programs/services for our students. I join OCVTS with excitement, purpose, and deep respect for OCVTS’s accomplishments serving students, families, and the county for nearly 60 years,” Maschi said. He received his undergraduate degree in psychology and sociology from State University of New York - New Paltz, and continued his graduate studies at State University of New York - New Paltz and Albany. He has a master’s in social work and sociology, and a doctorate in educational leadership from the University of New England. “As you get to know me you will know that I am committed to maintaining and creating worldclass career and technical education programs for students so that they can continue to benefit from all the community has to offer. I am passionate about issues that impact traditional and non-traditional students in the 21st Century and their educational experiences beyond the classroom. I intend to work closely with all stakeholders to advocate and create meaningful partnerships for all vocational students,” Maschi said. Maschi replaces Nancy Weber-Loeffert, who recently retired.

Tech Roundup: Ways To Maximize Your Hearing
If you’re just beginning your better-hearing journey — or if it’s time to upgrade — you might be surprised at how sophisticated hearing devices have become. They’re basically tiny computers, with just as many high-tech features. Digital Reigns Almost all hearing technology on the market is now digital. Standard features include channels that can be programmed for your individual hearing loss and lifestyle, directional microphones to enhance speech in noisy backgrounds, noise reduction, feedback control, and the ability to wirelessly connect to FM and PA systems. But that’s just the beginning: Read on for some advanced options. Data Capturing Today’s tech can store information about your listening environments and preferences, so your hearing care provider can access that data at follow-up appointments to further customize your settings. Binaural Processing This means both devices communicate with each other. The devices can work in tandem, more closely mimic how we naturally take in data from both ears simultaneously, and stream sound signals from one device to another — which means you can choose to hear the person on the phone in both ears at once! Connectivity Advanced hearing technology can communicate wirelessly with devices such as TVs and tablets. Currently there are no truly wireless hearing aids — a hearing
aid battery simply can’t generate enough power to comply with wireless standards — but devices called streamers can translate the signal into something hearing aids can use. A streamer placed in your living room, for example, streams and sends the sound from your wireless-enabled TV directly into your hearing aids, so loved ones watching with you can choose a volume comfortable for them, while you control the volume for your hearing aids. Made for Smartphones Whether directly (Apple) or via a clip-on streamer (Android), today’s smartphones can stream sound to your hearing aids. Call a loved one, listen to your favorite music, or binge that popular new show without worrying about whether you have headphones or earbuds handy. Plus, with the smartphone app, you can save your hearing aid settings at your favorite spots, and the app will switch to those settings automatically each time you’re there. Interested in the latest in hearing tech? Contact us today to schedule a complimentary technology demonstration! Call 732-818-3610. Do I Need an Upgrade? It’s a tricky issue, but here are some signs: • Your devices need repairs regularly • Replacement parts are expensive or scarce • Your hearing has changed • Your lifestyle has changed • Technology has improved
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!

6 Ways To Protect Your Eyesight
By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. I look around at this beautiful Earth and the people I love and I think, I never want to lose this gift! Eyesight is such a precious thing and most people take it for granted because you’ve never known otherwise. But it’s common to lose vision as you age. It’s not just an inevitable consequence though. You might be able to slow it down by considering a few factors, dietary changes and vitamins or minerals. Today I’ll help you learn what might support your health if you have age related macular degeneration (AMD), dry eye syndrome or cataracts. As soon as you notice changes in your eyesight, see an ophthalmologist. I recommend you share eyesight changes with your doctor so they can see if you have diabetes or other disorders. Vision-protecting foods To protect eyesight, make sure that your diet contains plenty of eye-loving foods. These include citrus foods, nuts, hemp seeds, walnuts, almonds, cashews, salads, sweet potatoes, pumpkin seeds, and seafood. Water is also important. Dehydration will make your vision blurry. Lutein and zeaxanthin Lutein and zeaxanthin are very special carotenoids that protect your retina. They filter out high-energy wavelengths of light and act as antioxidants. You don’t make your own lutein and zeaxanthin, eat right and/or supplement. The best sources of lutein and zeaxanthin are leafy greens, squash, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, carrots and egg yolks. Vitamins C and E These two powerful antioxidants protect the tiny cells of your eye from oxidative damage.
Both of these vitamins help you maintain healthy blood vessels. You see, blood vessels improve blood flow to your eye and this is imperative to good vision. Good food sources of vitamin C include citrus fruits, bell peppers and salads. Vitamin E can be obtained from sunflower seeds, and walnuts. Zinc Zinc is highly concentrated in your retina and especially in the macula, where it helps to make a pigment called melanin that absorbs harmful light. Melanin is a pigment that is made in your body by melanocytes. It’s in your skin too, it protects against UV radiation. The more melanin you have, the more brown your eyes are. Zinc supports melanin production in the body. EPA and DHA Fish Oils These offset some of the medication-induced vision damage that occurs from taking statins, NSAIDS, steroids and seizure medicine. Fish oils also suppress the inflammatory mediators such as thromboxanes, prostaglandins and leukotrienes. DHA accounts for more than one-third of the fatty acids in your retina. Inflammation in your body doesn’t passively go away. We’ve recently learned there are three compounds that force it calm down. These good guys are called the resolvins, protectins, and maresins and essential fatty acids help you make more of the good guys. Wear sunglasses Ultraviolet light can hurt your eyes so squinting isn’t good. Wearing sunglasses when you’re outside exposed to bright sunlight reduces the amount of UV light that your eyes are exposed to. FYI, our devices emit short-wavelength blue light which might have negative changes in our eyesight.

NJ Receives 146 Applications For Medical Marijuana Dispensaries
By Jennifer Peacock TRENTON – The New Jersey Department of Health has received 146 applications from 106 organizations to set up medical marijuana dispensaries throughout the state, the governor’s office announced. Fifty applicants applied to operate dispensaries in North Jersey, 45 in Central Jersey, and 45 in South Jersey.
The Department on Health on July 16 requested applications for up to six new medical marijuana dispensaries. There are currently six dispensaries operating in the state in Egg Harbor Township, Montclair, Woodbridge, Cranbury, Secaucus, and Bellmawr. “By expanding Alternative Treatment Center locations in New Jersey, we are putting
patients first and ensuring more convenient access to medical marijuana,” Governor Phil Murphy said. “This is another step forward in removing barriers put in place by the previous administration and creating a more consumer-friendly program.” Approved applicants will be notified once the review is complete. Those applications won’t be made public until the awards have
been announced. “Program participation has surpassed 30,000 individuals as a result of reforms already made, and we expect that number to keep growing,” New Jersey Health Commissioner Dr. Shereef Elnahal said. “We need more Alternative Treatment Centers to keep pace with the demand for a therapy that has been unjustly restricted for so long.” The state will open up additional opportunities to apply to build cultivating, manufacturing, and dispensing sites in the future.

Inside The Law Motorized Wheelchair Lemon Law.Who Knew There Was Such A Thing?
Robert C. Shea Esq.
By Michael J. Deem, Esq., of R.C. Shea and Associates I can’t say that New Jersey does a lot of things right, but I have to admit that our consumer protection laws are some of the best in the country. When dealing with motorized wheelchairs a “consumer” is defined as the purchaser of the motorized wheelchair, if the motorized wheelchair was purchased from a motorized wheelchair dealer or manufacturer for purposes other than resale. A “consumer” is also a person to whom the motorized wheelchair is transferred for purposes other than resale, if the transfer occurs before the expiration of an express warranty applicable to the motorized wheelchair. A manufacturer who sells a motorized wheelchair to a “consumer”, either directly or through a motorized wheelchair dealer, shall furnish the consumer with an express (written) warranty for the motorized wheelchair. The duration of the express warranty shall be at least one year. In the event the consumer does not receive the express warranty then the manufacturer shall be deemed to have expressly warranted to the consumer that, for a period of one year from the date of the first delivery to the consumer, the motorized wheelchair will be free from any condition or defect which substantially impairs the value of the wheelchair to the consumer. If the wheelchair has what is called a “Nonconformity” this means that a condition or defect substantially impairs the use, value or safety of the motorized wheelchair, and that is covered by an express warranty. A “Nonconformity” does not include a condition or defect that is the result of abuse, neglect or unauthorized modification or alteration of the motorized wheelchair by the consumer. If a new motorized wheelchair does not conform to an applicable express warranty and the consumer reports the nonconformity to the manufacturer, the wheelchair lessor or any of the manufacturer’s authorized dealers and makes the wheelchair available for repair before one year after first delivery of the wheelchair to a consumer then the nonconformity shall be repaired at no charge to the consumer by the manufacturer. However, the consumer must provide the manufacturer a reasonable attempt to repair the wheelchair. “Reasonable attempt to repair” means, within the term of an express warranty applicable, or within one year after first delivery of the wheelchair to the consumer, whichever is sooner, that: (1) the wheelchair has been in for repair three or more times and the nonconformity continues, or (2) the motorized wheelchair is out of service for an aggregate of at least 20 days due to a nonconformity after having been returned to the manufacturer, wheelchair lessor, or any of the manufacturer’s authorized dealers for repair.
If, after a reasonable Michael J. Deem attempt to repair, the nonconformity is not repaired then the manufacturer shall, at the direction of a consumer (other than a consumer who leases a motorized wheelchair from a motorized wheelchair dealer), either (1) accept return of the wheelchair and replace the wheelchair with a comparable new one and refund any collateral costs; or (2) accept return of the wheelchair and refund to the consumer and to any holder of a Note on the wheelchair the full purchase price plus any finance charge amount paid by the consumer at the point of sale and collateral costs, less a reasonable allowance for use. In order to receive a comparable new motorized wheelchair or a refund a consumer shall offer to transfer possession of the defective wheelchair to the manufacturer. No later than 30 days after that offer, the manufacturer shall provide the consumer with the comparable new motorized wheelchair or a refund. When the manufacturer provides the new motorized wheelchair or refund, the consumer shall return the defective wheelchair to the manufacturer, along with any endorsements necessary to transfer legal possession to the manufacturer. In order to receive a refund a consumer shall: (a) offer to return the defective wheelchair to its manufacturer. No later than 30 days after that offer, the manufacturer shall provide the refund to the consumer. When the manufacturer provides the refund, the consumer shall return to the wheelchair; and (b) offer to transfer possession of the wheelchair to its manufacturer. No later than 30 days after that offer, the manufacturer shall provide the refund to the motorized wheelchair lessor. When the manufacturer provides the refund, the motorized wheelchair lessor shall provide to the manufacturer any endorsements necessary to transfer legal possession to the manufacturer. Also, keep in mind that any lease of a motorized wheelchair shall not be enforceable after the consumer receives a refund for the leased motorized wheelchair. No motorized wheelchair returned by a consumer or motorized wheelchair lessor in this State or by a consumer or motorized wheelchair lessor in another state shall be sold or leased again in this New Jersey unless full disclosure of the reasons for return is made to any prospective buyer or lessee. The consumer litigation attorneys at the Law Offices of R.C. Shea & Associates are available for a free consultation (732-5051212) to discuss your rights.

The entire school library, plus the classroom libraries, equipment, student supplies and even furniture and technology had to be thrown out. The GoFundMe, started by Kris Alexander, states that the district will need more than $500,000 to be made whole again. It had $700 during its first day. District business administrator Barry Parliman confirmed that Alexander is a parent of a child in the school, working with the
Tarabokija and Campolei were selected out of an initial 170 applicants. They were two of 92 applicants who passed the Physical Agility Examination held at Manchester Township High School. They then went on to complete Written Examination phase, and later, the Oral Board for extensive interviews. Final applicants underwent a background check and medical, psychological, and drug screenings. “Our rigorous and demanding hiring process ensures that only the best recruits are invited to join the ranks of the Manchester Township Police Department,” said Chief Parker. “Ptl. Tarabokija and Special Officer Campolei have proven that they are upstanding and driven individuals who possess the strong character required to succeed as a law enforcement officer.” Ptl.

Lakehurst has sought out all financial resources, but as a community we are looking for support for the replacement of books, supplies, basic needs, and bus transportation, as well as (assisting) in mold remediation,” Alexander wrote on the fundraising page. “The district as a whole is in dire need of financial support due to the excessive costs that have now put the school in an insecure situation. The entire community is eager to open the doors in November and supply students with the same resources and materials they had prior to this unexpected tragedy.”

lanes. The coin machines in the exact change lanes are nearing the end of their life expectancy and becoming exceedingly difficult and expensive to maintain or fix, according to NJTPA. NJTPA explained that most drivers, almost 83 percent going through the toll plazas, utilize EZPass anyway. Coin
lanes see only about 5 percent of drivers. Motorists should expect a minimal impact on traffic due to the change. “If you want to continue using exact change, you simply will be handing it to a toll collector instead of dropping it into a coin basket. Just make sure you select a full service lane rather than an E-ZPass Only lane,” stated NJTPA.
The work will begin on September 24. The tolls will be worked on two per week, one north and one south: • Week 1: Pascack Valley and Cape May • Week 2: Bergen and Great Egg • Week 3: Essex and New Gretna • Week 4: Union and Barnegat • Week 5: Toms River and Raritan • Week 6: Asbury Park

Seaside Boardwalk Different, Still Rebuilding, 5 Years After Fire
By Jennifer Peacock SEASIDE PARK – Even The New York Times wrote about it. It was also on national TV news. Less than a year after Superstorm Sandy devastated the Jersey Shore, the hardhit neighboring boroughs of Seaside Heights and Seaside Park faced another disaster, a boardwalk fire that destroyed nearly 50 businesses, and had the winds not shifted when and how they did, possibly the boroughs themselves. Investigators would eventually conclude it was faulty wiring, corroded by Sandy, that sparked the fire that originated at Kohr’s Frozen Custard, a building that sat on the boardwalk near Porter Avenue, the dividing line between the Park and the Heights. Thirty-mile-an-hour winds pushed the fire from south to north, with everything in its path destroyed. The blaze broke out around 2 p.m. It took hundreds of firefighters from across the state several hours to bring it under control. Heights lifer Nick Dionisio spoke with The Times Sept. 13, 2013, just a day after that “all-call” fire tore through three blocks of boardwalk businesses. Dionisio rented two stands that he ran with his father, just south in the Park from the Kohr’s building. He is a third-generation “Boardwalk guy,” as The Times described him. Dioinisio peeled shrimp as a young boy in his grandfather’s clam bar, and opened two fried-fish places with his father after a career
in banking left him missing the boards. The businesses went under water, literally: Sandy drove nearly 10 feet of water onto the boardwalk, destroying equipment and leaving those who came back scrambling to open something for Memorial Day the following May. The water didn’t wipe them out. But 10 days after Labor Day that year, the fire did. It’s now a dreary post-Labor Day afternoon in 2018. Dionisio was standing outside Park Seafood, the sign boasting that tasters will be treated to award-winning crab cakes. This was Park Seafood’s first season open. Dionisio has another stand that sells tacos, up on the Heights side, which opened earlier. He pointed south to where his original two businesses stood, not far from the original Kohr’s stand. An outdoor wedding venue now occupies that space. A lot of properties changed hands, whether owners were selling or tenants not renewing. His father died not long after Sandy hit, so he didn’t see the rebuilding efforts. “I owed it to him,” Dionisio said. “He would be so excited.” But it’s not what it was, he added. A lot of properties have changed hands, owners having sold or tenants deciding against renewing, rebuilding. “In fact, many of them have left or wouldn’t rebuild,” Bob Matthies, mayor of Seaside Park, told The Berkeley Times. “You need
–Photo courtesy Peter James Smith to realize too, many of the businesses had leases from the major property owners.” The old fare of stuffed animal prizes and funnel cakes has been replaced with upper-scale juice bars and coffee kiosks. If anyone dares to find a silver lining, it’s that the boardwalk has gotten a 21st Century facelift. Very little looks like what younger Baby Boomer and older Gen Xers remember walking and riding on Saturday nights. The 40-plus-year shore icon The Sawmill was largely spared from the blaze, thanks to an external sprinkler system on its east side that saved the building. Just to its north, Fun-

town Pier amusement park, which already suffered devastating losses from Sandy, was completely destroyed. Different groups open pieces of the boardwalk, and of course, it stretches between two boroughs with two different codes and two different sets of players. Funtown Pier, in the Park, is owned by William Major. He could not be reached by press time, but the last reports from 2016 stated he’s decided against rebuilding. The Park reexamined and updated its master plan, and doubled the size of allowable amusement rides from (Boardwalk - See Page 35)

Boardwalk:
Continued From Page 34 50 to 100 feet. But that stretch isn’t enough to make rebuilding worthwhile, with Major wanting 200- and 300-foot amusements to draw thrill-seeking spenders. “We support our property owners and businesses, if there’s something that can be done within code, we encourage that,” Matthies said. The borough and Funtown Pier representatives went back and forth for 18 months, but ultimately, residents weren’t interested in large amusement rides in their quiet, family town. “Whether or not one of the owners or entities wants to come in and build something like that, they would have to submit a site plan, which would be considered with public hearings. As a mayor, you always like to get input from public. You want to generate income, but this is a neighborhood here.” Seaside Park took the brunt of the damage in the fire, but about a block of Seaside Heights boardwalk was consumed. North of Porter, construction has stopped on vendor kiosks; phase one of a two-part project approved by the Heights. Adjacent properties are owned by Belle Freeman and Richard and Mary Peterson, according to public records. The project’s first phase, which was to have been completed in 2018, included temporary outdoor seating and bars and the vendor kiosks. Christopher Vaz, Seaside Heights business administrator, said the borough has to stop the construction of the half-finished kiosks due to problems. Those now sit, without siding and vacant,
The Manchester Times, September 22, 2018, Page 35 on the boardwalk. The second phase, most of which would have been completed in 2019, included an oceanfront wedding venue, pool club, beach cabanas, and “future building” that would have been constructed after 2019. Those plans were drawn up by Mode Architecture and presented back in February. “The Seaside Heights section is still kind of floundering on the part of the owners,” Vaz said. The planning board approved the presented plans. “They were supposed to move into phase 2 about now, building permanent structures, but the only thing we’ve seen built are the kiosks. …Construction has stopped, and we are very disappointed. We are extremely disappointed. We were made great promises, and those promises have not been kept.” The Berkeley Times was directed by the borough to Peter Pascarella for information on the pier progress. He told the newspaper that “Only Belle Freeman Property Owner, The Peterson family or SS Park “Funtown Assoc.” should conduct any such interview. I, however, continue, decline any such statement at this time.” They could not be reached as of press time. Seaside Heights lost more than $200 million in tax ratables between Sandy and the fire, Vaz said. The borough is part of a transitional aid program, but was hoping the boardwalk would have been fully redeveloped by now. Despite that, they are meeting budget forecasts. “The future is bright,” Vaz said. “There is only one way to go,” Dionisio, back at his seafood place, said. “Think positive.”

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of sept 22 - sept 28 By Jeraldine Saunders
ARIES (Mar 21-Apr. 19): Keep your promises and people will respect your integrity in the week ahead. The dragon guarding the cave has gone on vacation so set your sights on achieving a worthy goal. Money may arrive unexpectedly. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Home might be where the heart is, but you might shine brightest in the outer world this week. Expect to receive enthusiastic cooperation from your peers or co-workers when engaged on an important job or project. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): This could be a perfect week to examine your fundamental wants and needs. Learn to be more spontaneous as you interact within a group although you may need to be the soul of discretion when handling secrets. CANCER (June 21-July 22): In the week to come you may make career choices that depend upon having a sterling reputation. You may be called upon to go the extra mile for a friend. Concentrate on making extra money to obtain your fantasy. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The difference between fact and fantasy might cause a feud in the upcoming week. You may even imagine that what you have in your bank account is adequate to fulfill your dreams. Avoid minor disputes with loved ones. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): All that glitters might not be gold but could be worth a second look. You will need to be in the right place at the right time to profit and reap the benefits of your inspiring ideas. Take notes in the week ahead.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): There is no business like show business. Show what you’ve got. You may be called upon to demonstrate your working ability in the week ahead or to produce hard facts and figures rather than mere wishes and dreams. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Your judgment is a bit better than usual as this week unfolds, especially with matters to do with home and family. You may receive kudos for a job well done or for your brilliant ideas at the work place. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Concentrate on finding common ground with others in the week ahead, so that you can share in beneficial trends. Draw others into your inner circle and freely share your joys, hobbies, and inspiring thoughts. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Your naked ambition may be obvious this week. Nevertheless, you will be willing to play fair and share your good fortune. This is a time when following rules can lead to positive changes and decisions. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In the week ahead, you might push too hard to get your own way. Gauge carefully the potential reaction from others before making impetuous changes and proposals. Friends may provide good advice. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your business and negotiation skills will be in fine fettle as this week unfolds. But there may be more important subjects for you to consider as you contemplate better and improved conditions. Focus on the future.

Wolfgang Puck’s Kitchen Add A Popular Retro Touch To Brunch, Lunch, Or Cocktails With A Devilishly Good Egg Recipe By Wolfgang Puck
You can tell when a recipe has stood the test of time when it makes regular, repeated comebacks. For a perfect example, consider deviled eggs. In my more than five decades cooking professionally, I’ve seen them go repeatedly from appetizer favorite to jokey has-been to hip retro rediscovery - as they seem to be right now. Deviled eggs trace back at least to the 18th century, and you’ll find variations in cuisines worldwide. But the preparation has remained basically unchanged down through the years and across many borders. Hard-boil eggs and then cool, peel and halve them. Pop out their yolks, mash them (or pass them through a sieve for f luffier results), and mix them with enrichments and spicy seasonings (the source of the “deviled” adjective). Finally, return the yolk mixture to the whites - and watch them disappear! I know many people who say that they find it difficult to eat two hardboiled eggs but happily gobble up even more deviled eggs. It’s understandable. The stuffed halves are so irresistibly delicious that eating just one creates a strong desire for another. And, with the filling often piped decoratively into the whites, they’re just so pretty that you can’t resist picking up that gateway piece. Deviled eggs are also so simple to make that you can prepare them easily for a small dinner party or a large cocktail gathering. Cooking and peeling the eggs calls for the most careful attention. I prefer using eggs that have been packed and refrigerated for seven to 10 days after they were laid, since time and cool temperatures slightly change their internal chemistry to make the whites less likely to stick to the inside of the shells after boiling. Since most eggs reach supermarkets three to five days after they were laid, it makes sense to leave them in your refrigerator another four days to a week before cooking. I start them in cold water to prevent the shells from cracking, as they sometimes do when cold eggs are added to already boiling water. And I cool and peel the eggs submerged in ice water, which helps you ease the shells from the whites more cleanly and easily. In the following recipe, which my friend and fellow chef Marian Getz prepared with me recently during my 20th-anniversary appearance on Home Shopping Network, the seasonings are simple but lively. They include mustard, dill pickle, onion, honey, salt and pepper. Feel free to try your own variations, such a little hot sauce or paprika, horseradish, Worcestershire sauce or minced anchovy. Chef Getz likes to use a pastry bag with a star tip to pipe the filling so beautifully
that I couldn’t resist eating them myself, right on the air! DEVILED EGGS Makes 24 halves 12 large eggs 1 /4 c u p (6 0 m L) g o o d - q u a l i t y mayonnaise, plus extra as needed 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1 tablespoon brine from bottled dill pickles 1 teaspoon honey 1 teaspoon minced dill pickle 1 teaspoon minced yellow onion Sea salt Freshly ground black pepper 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives or Italian parsley Paprika (optional) First, hard-boil the eggs: Put the eggs in a saucepan or pot large enough to hold them in a single layer and add enough cold water to cover them by 1 inch (2.5 cm). Put the pan, uncovered, over medium-high heat, and bring the water to a boil; cover the pan, remove it from the heat and set a timer for 9 minutes. Meanwhile, fill a mixing bowl with ice cubes and water. When the timer goes off after 9 minutes, drain the eggs and immediately transfer them to the ice water to cool for about 5 minutes. To peel each egg, gently but firmly tap its shell underwater against the side of the bowl to crack it all over; then, with your fingertips, gradually peel off the shell underwater. Transfer the peeled eggs to a double layer of paper towels to drain, removing any last shell bits. With a sharp knife, carefully cut each egg in lengthwise in half. With your fingertips, gently pop the yolk from each half into a fine-meshed metal strainer set on top of a mixing bowl, placing the whites cut sides up on a large plate or platter. With the back of a large, sturdy metal or wooden spoon, press the yolks through the strainer into the bowl, scraping off any yolks adhering to the underside of the strainer. Add to the yolks the mayonnaise, mustard, pickle juice, honey, pickle and onion. Stir until thoroughly blended, seasoning to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer the yolk mixture to a piping bag fitted with the star tip. Close the bag and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Cover the egg white halves with plastic wrap and refrigerate as well. Before serving, remove the egg whites from the refrigerator and uncover them. Remove the piping bag, and pipe the yolk mixture decoratively into each egg white half. Garnish with chives or parsley and paprika (if using), and serve immediately.
