Lakehurst Gets Two More Preschool Classes
Locals Keep Their Roots As Towns Adapt Animal Ordinances By Jennifer Peacock LAKEHURST – You see it first through the gaps in the stockade fencing, a dazzle of black and white stripes with a shock of red that wouldn’t come up to an adult’s kneecap. There’s movement, but there might not be a precise verb to describe this walk. As you approach, you hear the clucking. Low, a whisper. Alana Scott’s backyard at her Willow Street residence is home to her brood of Barred Rocks hens, a type of Plymouth Rock chicken ideal for backyard poultry. This breed boasts good egg layers with friendly tem-

Ocean County Prosecutor’s Legacy Is Saving Lives By Chris Lundy TOMS RIVER – When Prosecutor Joseph Coronato gave speeches about the opioid epidemic, he would open with statistics on the numbers of overdose deaths to show people just how severe this epidemic is. When he became prosecutor in 2013, he said there were 10 overdoses in seven days. One was an 18-year-old girl in Brick who was doing 25 packets of heroin in the morning and another 25 at night. Traditional police work – ar resting criminals – wasn’t enough. It needed a different approach. The different approach is what he hopes will continue after his appointment as prosecutor ends in
October. Since March, Coronato said he knew he was on borrowed time. The position is filled by the governor. Coronato is a Republican. Phil Murphy is a Democrat. So, Murphy has chosen Bradley Billhimer as his replacement. Billhimer is a local attorney who ran for an Assembly seat as a Democrat. He is scheduled to start on Oct. 8. “I’m confident, in many aspects, I have made a difference. I think that we’ve saved lives,” he said. Ocean County was first in the state in equipping police and school nurses with Narcan, the nasal spray that is used to stop the effects of an overdose. (Legacy - See Page 5)
By Chris Lundy LAKEHURST – The Lakehurst Elementary School district will have two more fullday preschool classes, funded by the state. The district received $376,890 from the Department of Early Childhood Education to expand the preschool program, starting in October. The classes are open to legal residents of Lakehurst and/or those who are connected to the military base. The child needs to be 3 or 4 years old on or by Oct. 1, 2018. Interested people can register by calling 732-657-5741. This brings the number of preschool classes in the district to six, said assistant superintendent Clifford Barneman. Last year, a different program expanded the classes from two to four. The two new classes will join the other four at St. John’s Parish Center, where they had to move due to mold contamination in the elementary school. They will be housed in temporary units on the church’s property for now. The district is scheduled to re-open the school on Nov. 12. The funding for Lakehurst was part of $20.6 million in aid to districts across the state. “Providing our youngest learners with high quality early education will have long-lasting benef its for children, and for communities as a whole,” Education (Preschool - See Page 5)

daughter Teagan with potato chip crumbs - a rare treat - they stay clear of the stranger (the reporter) in their backyard. Cats have their meows to demand food or a neck scratch. Chickens cluck. “They’re clucky…they’ll yell at you to get your attention,” Scott said. She’s had the chickens for about four years, having inherited four of them and adding three more. All hens, all nameless. Scott’s son Charlie, 14, a ninth-grader at Manchester Township High School and on the autism spectrum, is responsible for caring for them: feeding them, cleaning their coop nestled in the corner of the yard. “I’ve always wanted chickens. They’ve enhanced our lives, they give us eggs,” Scott said. “You get food out of it!” Crossing the road, Willow Street neighbor Kristine Naia has had her chickens for more than a year. Their coop is nestled in the very back of Naia’s landscaped property. A family member had to rehome the birds. Naia took them in. “I absolutely love them. Before I had chickens, I thought they were a dumb, brainless bird and they didn’t have any personalities,” Naia said. “At the end of the day, after work, I’ll go in the backyard and sit with them for an hour or two.” ‘You’re chicken’ isn’t an ungrounded expression: the chickens were terrified of Naia when they moved onto her property. The surroundings, the sounds, the humans, were all unfamiliar, even to those bird

when it comes to chickens. Only cats and dogs need to be licensed in the borough; it’s generally unknown how many homes in Lakehurst have chickens, or bees, or pigs. Oglesby couldn’t provide any specifics of what he’ll propose to Council, as he’s still researching the issue. “I am still in the research phase, exploring various options. Primary objective, without being too heavy handed about it, is avoiding health hazards and ensuring that quiet enjoyment aspect,” he wrote in a Sept. 13 email to The Manchester Times. So questions about potential registration, limits on the number of animals, property requirements, whether animals will be grandfathered in, etc., remain questions for now. Each municipality has its own unique character, its own set of quirks and challenges and laws. What works in Toms River won’t work in Lakewood won’t work in Pine Beach won’t work in Eagleswood. For instance, in Waretown, a resident can keep a domesticated monkey - which the ordinance doesn’t even address - but can’t keep carnivorous, undomesticated large mammals or reptiles. Think lions, tigers, Komodo dragons. You can probably own those zoo animals in Jackson, but unfortunately, only if you’re licensed as a zoo, which brings with it yards of red tape. Swine are heavily regulated in Jackson, Waretown, and Howell, but not even mentioned in Berkeley and must live on at least five acre lots in Brick Township. As with other animals that aren’t cats

past farming communities can be seen throughout the county. But today, if anyone has anything more exotic than chickens in Lakehurst, they don’t have social media, or decided they didn’t want to bring attention to themselves by contacting The Manchester Times for this article. Urban and suburban homesteading has been on the upswing for years now (you know it’s mainstream when it appears in the pages of The New York Times and the airwaves of National Public Radio, not exactly fringe news organizations). These homesteaders take what space they have and cultivate gardens, cure their own cold processed, hand-cut soaps, and raise their own animals - chickens and even honey bees. They know exactly what’s on and in their lettuce and tomatoes, their hand soap, their eggs and honey, so they know exactly what’s going in and on their bodies. For others, it’s simply about the joy of the work. The cost for feed, for lard, for seed, the work, is worth it. Lakehurst’s animal ordinances haven’t been visited in at least 20 years, and only address dogs and cats, although Chapter V of the borough code alludes to the well treatment of animals “under control” by an owner. It’s an issue Council President Steve Oglesby recognized, and is working to address. He assured one concerned citizen at the last council meeting that no, the borough had no plans to prohibit breeds of dog, but to continue to address individually recognized vicious dogs, for which an ordinance already exists. The horse is seemingly out of the barn

brains. But one day, “One of them, on her own, decided that one day she would jump on my lap on my chair. As time passed by, I got to know them, and they’re a lot like dogs. They’ll come running to me when I call them, they like to jump up and be pet.” Some of the hens arrived monikered, others christened upon adoption: Lucy and Ethel, Nickel, Penny, Copper, Goldie Hen, Tammy Wyandotte and Dolly ParHen, Bonnie, Scarlett O’Henna, Beaker, Morticia, Crimson, Kahlúa, and Smoke. Their breeds are as varied as their names: the backyard favorite Barred Rocks, Silver and Gold-Laced Wyandottes, Easter Eggers, Rhode Island Red, Black Australorp, Buff Orpington and Silkies mixes. Some of the hens are young and hardy, good layers. Others lay occasionally, and as they age, will likely stop laying. They yield enough eggs for not only Naia’s extended family, but also her boyfriend’s mother and brother. The birds will thrive and pass peaceably without becoming dinner roast, long past their laying years. Aside from a few scuffles and one hen believing she’s a rooster, Naia sits, legs pretzeled, on the grass, and tosses bird feed to her pecking, contented, quiet brood.

Legacy:
Continued From Page 1 It was f irst in having an emergency room overdose recovery program, pawn shop registry, and Blue HART, where addicts can come into certain police departments and ask for help without fear of arrest. If he had more time, he would have wanted to see an expansion of the Blue HART program. There were plans to implement it in Toms River. The roadblock to doing Toms River in the past had been that the demand was so great that there just weren’t enough beds in rehabilitation programs. The Toms River plan would have used hospitals for a brief stay, and then have follow-up care with recovery coaches. This program would then have been spread throughout the county. He said there’s been a 20 percent reduction in opioid deaths since these programs began. It’s still too high, in his opinion, but it’s moving in the right direction. The programs Coronato seems most proud of share a common element. They are proactive measures rather than reactive. Police generally are known for making arrests, not preventing them. But preventing arrests is the future of law enforcement, he said. These methods would defer people from entering the system and keep the system from growing. If someone has an addiction, they might steal to feed that addiction. You could
throw them in jail, but that doesn’t solve the addiction. It doesn’t change anything, and when they are out, they will likely steal again. Plus, being jailed r uins someone’s record. It’s not enough to expunge their record, he said. Expungement doesn’t really work, because with social media, everyone knows you’ve been arrested, and future employers can skip over you. This keeps people in the rut they are in now and keep them from growing independent of their bad habits. However, that doesn’t mean you won’t be held accountable for serious crimes. If you hold up a store, don’t expect leniency, he said. He points to the county’s part in a multi-jurisdictional effort that led to 28 arrests and the dismantling of nine drug facilities. And if you’re the one who sells the drugs, expect to lose everything. The county’s strict liability laws mean that they can take possession of and sell cars and homes used in the business of dealing drugs. The proceeds from this go toward Narcan and educational programs in schools. “You go after the true predators who deserve to be in jail,” he said. Due to programs like these, he has racked up a list of recognitions from various agencies, mostly for his work addressing the opioid crisis. However, he also credits his department for all their hard work. Technically, he said, he supervises 1,600 police officers in
the county, and they’ve stood shoulder to shoulder with the prosecutor’s office. “My heartfelt thanks goes out to them. They really make a difference,” he said. What’s Next? “I have the greatest job in the world. When you get the job, five years seems so long away,” but you blink and it f lies by, he said. Coronato, an attorney, is weighing his options. “I’m fielding offers from other walks of life. It’s important to find a good landing spot. I want to look before I leap,” he said. “Truly, I would like to continue to address the opiate epidemic. The death rate is still unconscionable.” He’s rumored to be a candidate for local political office. To this he just said that he would have to see what his ultimate goals are, and for that, he needs to sit down with his family. “To me, nothing is more important than family.”
Preschool:
Continued From Page 1 Commissioner Lamont O. Repollet said in a press release. “We’ve learned that an investment in preschool – or, more accurately, an investment in high-quality preschool – has the potential to help children succeed in school, and later in life, by providing them with the academic and social skills needed for school readiness.” The funding is distributed based on the needs of low-income students in the district, according to the state. Research has shown that children who attend quality early childhood education programs are less likely to be placed in special education, less likely to need to stay back a grade, and more likely to graduate from high school than those who didn’t attend such programs. Local districts that were recently awarded this funding include: • Lakehurst: $376,890 • Berkeley: $2,264,383 • Stafford: $1,245,471

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY E ditorial Is Your Child Having Trouble Communicating? In all the excitement of Back to School, there is often a critical piece missing in the planning. If a young child appears to have delays in speech or language, parents need to act quickly. New Jersey Speech-La ng u age -He a r i ng A s s o c i a t io n ( NJSH A) members recommend children, even those entering preschool, be checked by a professional before entering school if they have diff iculty with speech, language, or hearing. This is especially true for children who, when compared to their peers, have difficulty hearing what is said, do not speak, or have unintelligible speech. Regrettably, a national poll by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) indicated nearly 70 percent of audiologists (i.e., hearing professionals) and speech-language pathologists believe many parents do not know the early warning signs of com mu nication dis-
orders. Consequently, they are unaware of the benefits of early t reat ment. To lea r n more about expected speech-language and hearing skills between the ages of 0-8 years see: njsha.org/resources/media/bhs-month. php When a child has a communication disorder – a very common disability – he/she can languish for months in the classroom before getting help. Certainly no one wants children to suffer from learning problems, especially if they can be avoided with early diagnosis and treatment. Check with your school district and/or speech and hearing professionals in your community to learn what services are available. Ensure that your child does not miss a critical developmental window and place him/her on a successful educational path this year. Ursula Glackin Member of NJSHA Middletown, NJ

Letters To The Editor Coastal Storm Research Has Problems On Thursday, September 13, 2018 I attended the meeting at Ocean County College regarding the back bay Coastal Storm Management. I would like to express my concerns regarding their current research. First, their research on the beach and dune replenishments is majorly flawed. Weeks Construction/Dredging spends months pumping sand onto the beach and three nor’easters later the beach is gone (between January and April). So, they pumped more money into the project only to watch the ocean take back what it wants. There appears to be no attention paid to current flows or ways to stop the sand movement northward. One might look at the south jetties of Manasquan and Shark River to see how the south jetties have built the beaches. I have seen the sand continue to fill that area into the inlets. Now, I am hearing they are looking to find sand to fill the holes that were created in the ocean floor and are thinking to use dredge spoils from the bay. Can’t wait to see the law suits from the environmentalists! I am in favor of tidal doors at Manasquan, Shark River and Barnegat Inlets. I feel very strongly that this will stop the back-bay flooding by limiting the amount of water entering the rivers and being held in by the storm surges. However, one must consider these facts: 1. The flow of water down the rivers from the land behind the doors. Rotterdam had this problem. The North Sea storms didn’t get them; it was the backed-up river water. Pumps would have to be installed to remove river/rainwater flow out from behind the doors. 2. Speaking of flow, by placing the design presented at the meeting you are going to create an increase in water flow in the inlets on incoming and outgoing tides in the area of the piers. Restricting the flow of water volume through the inlet would increase the hazard of transit. Another point of proof to look at is the history of the Route 88 Bridge in the Pt. Pleasant Canal. There with an
Letters The to my Editor letter about the actions during his candidacy 8-knot current on manyTo days. riposte A three- to four-foot hydraulic step was created at the peak of tide change. Then added to this was the erosion of the piers by the current. Engineers dumped rock around the piers to protect the bridge from collapsing and created a larger transiting problem from the current. Today, it is an easy passage with the piers removed. The last question I have is how would a boat get in or out of the inlet looking for a safe harbor during the storm or the Coast Guard responding to a Mayday call? It may help very little but it needs to be done: the dredging of the bay channels. I don’t believe it would change the water levels much, because water will seek its own level. In the bay but it would help in the flow of the water and navigation. Storm pumps should be considered rather than the Perimeter Wall Plans. With the gates you would just have to remove the rain water runoff from the bay. The bay water level is affected more by wind than much else in my experience of working the bay for over 44 years. Perimeter Wall plans have two drawbacks in my opinion. 1. They are made from concrete. Concrete does not hold up well to salt water, ice and the cold. They will crack allowing water in those cracks which will freeze then chip. 2. These walls have been known to break! (i.e. New Orleans) I can’t see the people living by the Manasquan and Brielle by the Inlet allowing a wall behind their multi-million dollar homes. Just think the legal issues/suits that the waterfront owners would bring against the project (i.e. beach replenishments, what was the cost for attorneys for that?) Captain Robert M. Silva Toms River
Debate About Trump Continues With Civility I intended to write directly to Steven J. Baeli - the erudite author of the extraordinary
impeachability of Donald Trump, but my Google search was inconclusive. Therefore, I rely on The Brick Times to relay to him both my respect and my reservations. In an age of vulgarity, I appreciate his being a gentleman. In an age of ignorance, I’m grateful for his fine writing and thoughtful, if partisan, scholarship. Indeed, I’ve learned from his knowledge of Constitutional norms. Neither a lawyer nor a political scientist, I’m at a disadvantage in a discussion of this sort. I read and attempt to interpret the raw documents (the Declaration of Independence; the Constitution and Bill of Rights, etc.) along with available supplementary commentary. If to a professional it seems I’ve been skimming the surface, it’s what ordinary citizens are forced to do frequently. Incidentally, that inadvertently - denigrated “Webster’s Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary of the English Language” is actually a patriotic book in the sense that it contains the Declaration of Independence; the Constitution of the United States; all presidents and vice presidents…through its publication date of 2001. I refer to the founding documents frequently and additionally to Smithsonian Presidents, so it ought not to be assumed that a person without a law degree or related credentials is incapable of comprehending the English language. And those recommended civics classes are no match for what is happening on the political scene of today! My other reservation pertains to that typical default argument of partisans I necessarily oppose, that is, accusing Obama of the very offenses the present president commits on a daily basis. My observations have to do with the sitting president of 2018. If Mr. Baeli had issues about Obama’s being a traitor as he alleges, I should hope he voiced them at the time; and voiced them as vociferously as I shall continue to voice my claims against Donald Trump. We’re talking now about the Presidency of Donald Trump, a man toying with autocracy. If I have missed any admirable
and presidency, or reasons I should not be concerned about an overthrow of Constitutional Law, I encourage Mr. Baeli to enumerate instances in a future article. I thank him in advance.

The War Of Words Claims Us As Victims Does it take a war to separate the men from the boys and the women from the girls? Does it take a war that produced the legendary journalist, Walter Cronkite, of yesteryear? Does it take the war that produced the courageous journalists, Martha Radditz and Geraldo Rivera, of our time? And yet we are at war. It is a war-of-words against the President of the USA. For the MSNBC pundit to say “President Trump is worse than 9/11, which brought people together,” is ludicrous. And why did a New York tabloid give first-page prominence to referring to the President’s daughter as “ghoul” because it rhymes with “girl?” Not to worry, this tabloid had to dismiss more than two-thirds of its workforce to restructure and stay alive. This war-of-words needs to cease; it entertains evil. The world is watching as the media, Democrats and thespians make a fool of themselves, while taking the American people along with them. The president’s personality and his past dalliances do not interest me. He has promised to get things done. New presidents have come and gone promising billions to this-and-that purpose and still nothing improves. How about infrastructure? Roads here are horrendous. Even President Obama giggled when he said: “there were no shovel-readyjobs.” He should apologize. It would be refreshing if New Jerseyans voted for a Republican Senator this November, for once in our lifetime, and help get things done. Marie Pellicano Whiting

She considers her municipality’s ordinance - Haddon Township - the gold standard. “One of the things that works best on both sides, if they’re coming up with legislation, is to mandate a class in raising backyard chickens in the suburbs,” Baile said. “The reason for that is to not only make sure that the policies are good for the chickens, because obviously their welfare is very important to us, but because we know that, especially doing this in the suburbs, which is what I have almost all of my background in, that we need to be very aware of our neighbors.” Baile, who charges a nominal fee for her classes, educates those interested in raising chickens in three main areas: how to raise chickens in suburbia without a
rooster; how to keep chickens healthy, free from cross-contamination; and how to build a chicken coop and run that is predator-proof. Throw away that cheap chicken wire; it won’t keep anything out. Baile has already done all the research. She urged Lakehurst and other towns considering an ordinance to know this: it’s not the size of the lot that matters. “The most important thing, and it’s for two reasons, is, how far away your entire chicken complex is - their coop and their r un - f rom the neighbor’s windows and doors of your contiguous neighbors?” Baile said. Most municipalities have come somewhere between 20-25 feet, without issue. At 20 feet, most reasonable neighbors won’t be bothered by the clucking of a few hens. “And, if you keep your coop and your run clean, your neighbors aren’t going to smell it. Those are the two biggest issues neighbors are going to complain about: the noise and the smell.” In the last six months, Lakehurst Police Officer Robert Schroeck said the department had a report of a rooster call keeping neighbors awake at night. (They’ll cockadoodledoo at all hours, not just to announce the sunrise, which is why Baile is against keeping them in backyard broods.) The department is aware of a house in the borough that keeps chickens, but otherwise, to his knowledge, has received no complaints.

We speak to each other like we would if we were sitting around the kitchen table: members helping members. We tell jokes and amusing stories. We recommend businesses and mention which ones to stay away from. All of this is done online. Friendships have developed.

Opioid Crisis Brings Officers Into The Classroom
OCEAN COUNTY – The deadly opioid crisis has prompted the Manchester Township Police Department to take the fight against addiction directly into high school classrooms with a powerful and effective education program, said Rep. Chris Smith (R-NJ), who was briefed by Manchester police officers about their #NotEvenOnce program on Wednesday. “The opioid epidemic has tragically claimed so many lives and ensnared many more in a horrific cycle of addiction,” Smith said. “Chief Lisa D. Parker and her select officers have decided to do something about it, and through this program they are performing life-saving work. We must educate and empower our youth on drug awareness to prevent more opioid addictions. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” The Manchester Police Department started the “#NotEvenOnce” program as an interactive opioid addiction prevention education program to be taught in local high schools to seniors. In the meeting with Rep. Smith, Chief Parker explained that the name of the program comes from a common conversation officers have with addicts—if they had not tried opioids even once, they would not have been addicted. The program lasts three days: • Day 1 includes a presentation on who is affected by opiates, how opiates are different from other drugs, and how widespread the opiate problem is in our communities. • On Day 2, students are invited to participate in an interactive discussion while listening to a
recovery coach—a former addict—share their personal story of addiction and recovery • On Day 3 students are shown a video interview conducted at the Ocean County Jail with a Manchester High School graduate incarcerated for drug use, sharing his personal story which began with prescription opiates for a sports injury, developed into a habit, then heroin addiction, and then incarceration; the interview explains that addiction can happen to anyone More than 42,000 people died from opioid overdoses in 2016, according to the CDC, and according to provisional data for 2017 that number increased to more than 49,000 opioid overdose deaths. Ocean County, NJ saw the second-highest number of drug deaths among New Jersey counties in 2015 and 2016, according to data from the state medical examiner’s office. “The officers on the street have seen an alarming increase in opioid overdoses and deaths in their community,” Smith said of the Manchester Township Police. “In fact, during our three-hour meeting, one of the officers involved responded to two separate overdoses.” Smith was impressed with the #NotEvenOnce program, which also uses existing resources at no significant additional cost; he said he felt it could be copied or imitated elsewhere in New Jersey. The program has already taught approximately 400 law enforcement and education professionals throughout New Jersey about how they can implement the program in their own school districts.

Parents: Be Vigilant About What’s On Your Child’s Devices
By Kimberly Bosco NEW JERSEY – Attorney General Gurbir Grewal is urging parents to check what’s on their children’s phones and educate them about the dangers social media can pose. With the recent sting operation that arrested 24 New Jersey men for luring unsuspecting minors through social media, Grewal is emphasizing the need for vigilance on this new “cyber playground.” Whereas child predators may have once lured kids off the playground or out of shopping malls, “now they also lurk at social media, where they utilize the anonymity of the internet to target the same vulnerable children,” said Grewal. Predators can disguise themselves as age appropriate, and some kids may not be aware of whom they are really talking
to online. “We want child predators to know that we’re on social media, too, and that the next child that they may target may be an undercover officer with handcuffs,” said Grewal. The Office of the Attorney General and local law enforcement stated that they are determined to keep children safe and put a stop to predatory behavior; but they also need help from parents. “Just as you are vigilant about a stranger approaching your child in a park, you need to be equally if not more vigilant about the danger lurking in these new cyber playgrounds,” Grewal explained, noting that parents should be aware of the apps and technology that are out there, and what their kids may be up to. “Talk to your children about social media,” he said. “Let them know that the people they encounter may not be who they initially seem to be, and warn them not to share personal information or pictures with strangers they encounter on the internet.” Officials stated that some apps make it easy for people to communicate anonymously, thus making it easy to target children.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN SUFFERING WITH NEUROPATHY? IS THE NUMBNESS & TINGLING UNBEARABLE? Time to get your life back! This advanced, all-natural treatment can help you finally find long lasting relief. “I can’t sleep at night – It’s like constant pins & needles in my feet” Peripheral neuropathy often affects multiple facets of a person’s life; they can’t sleep, they’re constantly suffering, and can’t enjoy life the way they used to. Whether this sounds like what you’ve been dealing with, or if you’ve only just begun to feel the numbness, tingling, or pain associated with neuropathy, it’s important you take action to find relief. So many people suffering from neuropathy try lots of exhausting treatment options and medications with little success. That is no longer necessary with this innovative program by Monmouth Pain & Rehabilitation, covered by most major insurance providers including Medicare. We’re offering FREE consultations ($245 value) for our neuropathy treatment – call 732-345-1377 to reserve your consult to learn what custom treatment program our doctors can create for you.

At MPR, it’s all about YOU and your needs. Each patient receives a customized treatment program, a curated combination of the most trusted and successful technologies that actually have an effect of your symptoms, without having to take more medications. This treatment is unique and works FAST K-Laser therapy at Monmouth Pain & Rehabilitation has been proven to reduce the painful and numbing symptoms of neuropathy, whether patients are in the early stages, or have been suffering for years and are finally seeking treatment. Tom P., an MPR patient, explains, “I could barely feel anything happening during my laser treatment except for a bit of a warm feeling. I knew it had to be working though, because I could tell a difference even when I went home that day. And now, months later, I feel SO much better!” In addition, the doctors use non-invasive care to eliminate any nerve issues, which effectively gets to the root of your pain. They then treat the symptoms, allowing you to not only feel relief, but also address the cause of your pain. Special low-force instrumentation frees the nerves to eliminate any damage caused by old herniated discs or arthritis. One of the especially distinctive characteristics of the neuropathy treatment at Monmouth Pain & Rehabilitation is their use of Power Plate© technology, which stimulates the body’s natural reflexive response through vibration.

Managing Ear Wax Hold the Cotton Swabs! Earwax, that yellowish-brown goo, might inspire an “Ick!” or two, but managing it the right way can make a difference in your hearing health. Earwax not only helps keep the ear canal clean but prevents dirt debris from reaching and potentially damaging the eardrum. Normally you don’t need to remove wax; your ears will naturally handle it by pushing out the excess. When excess buildup gets to the point of causing pain or symptoms like hearing loss or tinnitus, it’s time to clean it out. What are the dos and don’ts of ear cleaning? DO use a warm, soft cloth – after washing or showering – to remove normal amounts of earwax at the outer ear, if needed.
DON’T use ear candles, which may cause serious injury and have not been proven effective in scientific studies. DO gently soften the earwax with drops of warmed olive oil, almond oil, water, or a commercial solution to remove larger amounts of earwax. DON’T stick cotton swabs or other objects in the ear; they can cause injury and push wax farther into the ear canal. Sometimes earwax buildup requires the attention of a professional who can examine your ears, determine the nature of the problem, and customize a treatment. If you’re experiencing problems such as hearing loss, blockage of the ear canal, or tinnitus, contact us for an evaluation at 732-818-3610 (Toms River or Whiting) or 609-978-8946 (Manahawkin).
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!

Put That Pep Back In Your Step
Dear Joel, I’m 69 years young and hate to admit this but I’ve lost the pep in my step. I’m just not enthusiastic about anything. Do you have any advice on how I can hit the reset button on my life? Answer: Well the f irst thing to check is your physical and mental health. If everything checks out fine, then you have push that reset button with all you’ve got. When we’re young, we have to try new things all the time, but when you get older it’s easy to get so comfortable with your experiences that you stop learning. Force yourself to try a new store or take a new way home. The world is full of people and places to get your motor r unning.
If you are not a joiner, you can start by watching YouTube and the internet. We all have something that gets our attention. I always smile when I see t hose g uys who pai nt their faces at sporting events. I can’t remember a time that I was ever that into a team, but I still like to watch the game. That’s the thing with getting older; you may not have that youthful enthusiasm, but you make up for it with real appreciation. Write to joel@preferredcares.com.

6 Powerful Benefits Of Papaya Enzyme
By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. I’m sure you’ve heard of those delicious orange fruits called papayas! Papayas themselves have all kinds of health benefits. For one, they are extremely fiber-rich. Also, the antioxidant content is extraordinarily high and fantastic to help with the maintenance of healthy cholesterol levels and atherosclerosis (the build-up of plaque in the arteries). Let’s focus on papain, the highly beneficial compound found in the leaves and fruit of the papaya. Papain is an enzyme which means it helps drive reactions in your body. For example, if you eat a hamburger, protease enzymes are secreted during digestion that help break down the meat, turning it into smaller protein molecules called amino acids. Enzymes that break down proteins are termed “proteolytic” enzymes. Papain, is also a proteolytic enzyme and it’s commonly found in meat tenderizer. Here are five other powerful benefits of papaya and papain: Heal Your Skin and Wounds: Papaya fruit and leaf can both be applied to minor burns and wounds to speed up the healing process. We use a lot of triple antibiotic ointment in the United States, however, where drugs are not heavily promoted or allowed, families use natural remedies. As an example, in Latin America, Hawaii, and Tahiti, papain leaves are used commonly for burns. There are certain gels sold commercially. Address Sinus & Breathing Problems: Papain can thin mucus, specifically by diluting sinus mucin, a glycoprotein found in mucus. In this way, papain could be great for helping you with chronic sinus
infections. Reduce Bloating and Diarrhea: In a case study, a male patient with gluten intolerance added papain once daily, every day, for one month (while eating a gluten-free diet) and experienced better digestion, as well as improved stools, dramatically less diarrhea, and an obvious decrease in bloat. Improve Antioxidant Capabilities: Papain contains compounds that make it a potent antioxidant, helping to protect your body from cellular damage caused by free radicals. Papain, in fact, is an antioxidant on par with strong antioxidant vitamins like vitamins C and E. Fight Cancer: The specific action papain has on cancer cells is by dissolving the thick protein coating around the cancer cell called fibrin. Other studies suggests that papaya juice has anti-proliferative effects which means it might slow metastasis. Finally, it can induce apoptosis which essentially, makes cancer cells run and hide. Papaya is obviously loaded with medicinal benefits. I recommend it so long as you’re not allergic to it, to its skin or to the pineapple enzyme called bromelain (there’s a cross-sensitivity). It’s easy to incorporate papaya and papain into your life. Supplements are widely available too. Supplementation might be a good idea if are supported on acid blocking drugs or PPI ulcer and reflux medications. If you sign up for my free newsletter at my website, suzycohen.com I will send you a longer version of this article, and explain more about this. I’ll also share my recipes, a papaya tea recipe and more medical information.

Educational Film Teaches Young Drivers About Getting Pulled Over
By Kimberly Bosco OCEAN COUNTY – The eighth film in the county’s Right Turns Series has been released and it’s targeting new drivers, according to Ocean County Prosecutor Joseph Coronato. The latest educational film in the series is called “Pulled Over.” Meant for high school juniors and seniors, the film highlights how
to act when you get pulled over by a police officer. Coronato stated that it is important to educate young, new drivers on what to do when stopped by an officer, especially as these types of police stops continue to end badly. “The film highlights motor vehicle stops by some of our own municipal police officers. It walks the viewer through each stop with the
goal of demonstrating how a person should properly interact with law enforcement during the encounter,” stated the prosecutor’s office. By teaching young drivers the necessary steps to take during a stop, it can help produce a better outcome with a safe and peaceful conclusion for both the officer and the driver. “Sometimes new drivers do things uninten-
tionally that may heighten law enforcement’s concern for their safety. The Prosecutor hopes that this Educational Film will serve to educate and protect law enforcement and drivers when somebody finds themselves – “Pulled Over”,” it stated.

R.C. Shea & Assoc.
Inside The Law Choosing The Right Automobile Insurance Will Protect Your Family And Assets
Robert C. Shea Esq.
By Michael J. Deem, Esq., of R.C. Shea and Associates In 1998, the State of New Jersey adopted the Automobile Insurance Cost Reduction Act (AICRA) to reduce the cost of automobile insurance by reducing the benefits available to persons who are injured in automobile accidents. This means less coverage to pay for medical treatment and less rights to recover monetary damages from careless drivers who injure your family. Protect yourself. Automobile insurance is mandatory in New Jersey. The failure to carry automobile insurance may be punishable by imprisonment. When purchasing automobile insurance, you have two choices; you are required to select either a Basic Policy or a Standard Policy. We do not recommend choosing the Basic Policy. The Basic Policy only provides minimal coverage and leaves you unprotected in several areas. A Basic Policy only provides you with $5,000.00 of property damage liability coverage if someone makes a claim against you and only provides $15,000.00 of medical expense benefits should you require medical treatment for your injuries. The Basic Policy does not cover you if you injure someone else. The Basic Policy does not provide Uninsured Motorist coverage to protect you and your family if the careless driver who causes the collision is uninsured or is insured under a Basic Policy. Perhaps most importantly, the Basic Policy will not provide you with a free lawyer to defend any claim against your personal assets. We recommend that you purchase a Standard Policy. A Standard Policy provides the best insurance coverage to protect your assets if you are sued and to provide compensation to you and your family if you/they are injured.
The Standard Policy Michael J. Deem does provide medical expense benefits (PIP) coverage which i ncludes medical expenses up to $250,000.00 per person per accident. The Standard Policy also provides you with Uninsured Motorist Coverage (UM Benefits), so if you are injured by someone who does not have automobile insurance, is insured under a Basic Policy or leaves the scene of the collision then you and your family are covered for your losses. When you purchase the Standard Policy you must elect a “tort option” that will determine your right to make a claim. You must select either the “limitation on lawsuit option” or the “no limitation on lawsuit option.” If you purchase the Basic Policy then you are assigned the “limitation on lawsuit option.” We recommend that you choose the “no limitation on lawsuit option.” Ask your insurance representative what is the actual dollar amount that your overall premium will increase if you elect the “no limitation on lawsuit option.” By choosing the “ limitation on lawsuit option” you are limiting you legal right to make a claim for monetary damages unless you sustain one of the following injuries: Death, Dismemberment; Significant scarring or disfigurement; Displaced Fractures; Loss of Fetus or a Permanent Injury that can been diagnosed by credible, objective medical testing. Selecting the correct insurance coverage is extremely important when it comes to protecting your family and personal assets. Call the Attorneys at R.C. Shea & Associates (732-505-1212) for a free evaluation of your automobile insurance policy.

Oyster Creek Plant Officially Closes Its Doors
By Kimberly Bosco FORKED RIVER – Lacey Mayor Nick Juliano called it “a somber day” as officials from the township and Exelon Generation announced the final closure of the Oyster Creek Generating Station. After 49 years in service, providing the residents of Lacey Township and surrounding areas with power, the oldest operating commercial nuclear power facility closed its doors and turned the reactor offline for the last time at 12 p.m. on Sept. 17. “For nearly half a century the men and women of Oyster Creek have been safely and reliably powering about 600,000 homes with carbon-free power,” said David Tillman, Director of Communications for Exelon. “The impact that they’ve [the workers] have had on the community is lasting… that impact, that legacy on the community will not fade” Tillman noted that this isn’t the end, but rather the start of a new chapter for Oyster Creek. With the end of the plant’s operations, employees will now spend the coming
weeks working on defueling the reactor, moving the used fuel into safe storage. This work began the same day, shortly after turning off the reactor. The long-term decommissioning process will commence once this is done, said Tillman. The final day of operations was characterized by a mixture of sadness and hope as officials expressed nostalgia over the Oyster Creek “family” that has worked together for the last half a century. They also shined a light of hope on the occasion, emphasizing that the legacy of the plant and its workers will live on even when the physical structures are no longer there. “At noon today [Sept. 17] Oyster Creek Generating Station produced its final megawatt,” said Site Vice President Tim Moore. “It’s a somber day, and also a day of reflection for our employees…we celebrate the proud legacy of Oyster Creek and the thousands of employees who worked here and shared our commitment to safety and operational excellence for almost 50 years.

“Eventually these buildings will disappear, but the station’s legacy of safe, reliable operations, community involvement, and environmental stewardship will never fade,” added Moore. Former Oyster Creek employee, Michael Roche, lamented that “it is a very sad day.” Roche began working for Oyster Creek in 1974 doing environment work until the mid80s. He also worked on the cleanup of Three Mile Island. Although he retired from Oyster Creek in 2001, he noted that the plant’s closure will be a loss to the community. “One of the things that wasn’t mentioned was that this plant operated in severe weather,” said Roche, emphasizing the endurance of Oyster Creek in more ways than one. In its lifetime, Oyster Creek produced nearly 200 million megawatts of carbon-free electricity while emitting virtually no greenhouse gas emissions, with an economic impact reaching over $3 billion through wages, taxes, purchasing, etc. Not only this, but Oyster Creek has reinvested approximately $20,000,000 back into the community through nonprofit organizations, like the United Way of Monmouth and Ocean Counties. However, with the closure of the plant, the approximately 600,000 homes it’s served will also lose it as a source of power for their electricity. Tillman explained PJM Interconnection will be working with the township to ensure that residents will continue to have electric once Oyster Creek is no longer. PJM Interconnection is “a regional transmission organization (RTO) that coordinates the movement of wholesale electricity in all or parts of Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia,” according to their website. While 300 of Oyster Creek’s approximate
400 employees will continue to be employed by the plant for decommissioning purposes, not all will be staying. Exelon stated that some will be moving to other Exelon facilities for work, and some will be forced to retire or pursue opportunities outside of Exelon. The need for employees will decrease overtime, said Tillman. When it comes to security, Exelon plans to maintain its current security force for some time but “this will be scaled down over time,” he added. “To the employees of Exelon and this plant: God bless you,” said Mayor Juliano. “The partnership that we’ve grown…it’s like a family. When I got that phone call that morning, my main concern…was employees,” he added. “Although we are sad to see this icon of the community cease operations, we look forward to a continued strong relationship with those at the facility as it enters into decommissioning,” said Committeeman Gary Quinn. Those employees who stay to work on the decommissioning process will do so under the potential new owner of the plant, Holtec International. Exelon announced back in July the “conditional sale” of Oyster Creek to Holtec. “We are very optimistic that that deal will close…in roughly one year,” said Tillman. Holtec plans to speed the decommissioning process up tremendously, from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s approved 60-year plan to just 8 years. While the closing of the plant was referred to as a “somber event” by many, it was also considered inevitable. Tillman noted that it comes down to that fact that it is much cheaper to run a gas plant than a nuclear plant, which was one of the major factors in the ultimate decision to close Oyster Creek for good.

Ocean County Marks 100 Years Of Health Advancements
By Kimberly Bosco OCEAN COUNTY – The Ocean County Health Department is marking 100 years this month since the H1N1 flu epidemic that wiped out nearly 3 percent of the global population in 1918, and is now recognizing the various achievements in health that have occurred since that time. Over the past century, we have seen advancements in public health like the introduction of vaccinations, anti-virals, strain predictability, active surveillance, and more. “One of the key things looking back is recognizing that we have public health practices in place today that those in 1918 never had,” said Daniel E. Regenye, Ocean County Health Department Public Health Coordinator. “Vaccination against influenza is an important step Ocean County residents should take to protect themselves from the flu. We recommend residents be vaccinated, through their primary healthcare provider or at any of our community-based clinics, seek medical help when experiencing flulike symptoms, and practice frequent hand washing.” Approximately 228 million lives would be lost today if it weren’t for these advancements like flu vaccine, officials stated.

OCHD officials recommend everyone six months and older, and pregnant women, receive a flu vaccine. The vaccine takes about two weeks to develop and protect your body against the flu. Don’t forget to maintain proper hygiene by frequently washing your hands, disinfecting surfaces, coughing or sneezing into a tissue or your elbow, and avoiding touching your face.
“Each year, flu sickens many residents across the County, and flu-related illnesses were responsible for nearly 1,000 deaths in New Jersey last year alone,” said Ocean County Freeholder Director Gerry P. Little, Liaison to the Ocean County Board of Health. “Everyone must take flu seriously and protect themselves and others by ensuring that all eligible family members are
vaccinated.” The Ocean County Health Department also offers a series of flu clinics. Dates, times, and locations can be found at ochd.org. For more information on getting vaccinated or for educational programs available for your community, contact the Ocean County Health Department at 732-341-9700 ext. 7604.

Physical Therapy For The Pediatric Population By: Erin Sullivan, DPT, Freehold Physical Therapist & Facility Manager
Physical Therapy is not just for adults, children can also benefit from treatment. HOW CAN PHYSICAL THERAPY HELP MY CHILD?
system. It is possible that children may be over sensitive or under sensitive to sensory input, and it is important that their treatment be focused regarding their specific needs. WHAT TO EXPECT
• Orthopedics Range of motion and flexibility differ from that of an adult so special considerations should be kept in mind when treating the pediatric population. When a child experiences an injury, treatment may vary considerably versus an adult, particularly in the event of growth plate involvement. These Injuries, and the natural growth and development of a child can significantly impact their ability to reach motor milestones. Growth spurts may also impact how and/or when they evolve their gross motor skills. • Meeting Motor Milestones Children may have difficulty reaching their motor mile stones for a number of reasons. These milestones act as stepping stones for a child to progress towards more complex, functional activities. If children are delayed in reaching these milestones, they may also have difficulty participating in school-based, recreational, or age specific activities. • Sensory Processing Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, or other conditions which impact sensory processing, can also benefit from skilled physical therapy services. A child’s perception of sensory input may impact their functional and gross motor ability as well as their behavior. These senses include sight, sound, smell, taste, touch, vestibular (balance), and what is known as proprioceptive or the perception of one’s own body, detected by the nervous
A licensed physical therapist will take a detailed history from you and your child regarding current or ongoing complaints. Your therapist will then complete a thorough evaluation, often through observation as well as objective measurements to determine whether your child is performing at an age appropriate level. Measures of joint range of motion, flexibility, and strength will also be assessed as part of the evaluation. The therapist will then discuss their findings with you and make recommendations regarding their plan of care. Your child may attend therapy sessions anywhere from once a week to three times per week depending on the outcome of your child’s evaluation. Treatment will be specific for each individual child and will be focused on age-appropriate, childdriven activities with integrated therapeutic play to address the child’s goals. WHERE CAN I FIND PEDIATRIC PHYSICAL THERAPY?
Pediatric physical therapy is available in a number of different settings. Children with developmental delays from infancy up to three years of age, in New Jersey, may be eligible for a federally funded program called Early Intervention. Schoolbased physical therapy is also available in some cases and focuses on the child’s
ability to access and participate in the school setting. Medical-model physical therapy is available in the hospital-based, home-based or outpatient setting, like All Care Physical Therapy Center. Medicalmodel physical therapy will address a child’s global needs including the ability to participate in the home or community (due to injury or gross motor delays). Many children may benefit from physical therapy on an outpatient basis, in addition to receiving school based therapy services. Parents are encouraged to discuss any concerns and treatment options with your child’s pediatrician or physician. ERIN SULLIVAN, DPT Erin graduated from the Richard Stockton College of NJ with her Bachelors of Science in Biology in 2011 and her Doctorate of Physical Therapy in 2013. Erin completed her clinical affiliations in a variety of settings, one of which was in our Toms River facility. In addition to her clinical rotation at All-Care, Erin completed affiliations in school-based pediatric, acute care, and hospital affiliated out-patient settings. Clinically, Erin works with postsurgical orthopedics, musculoskeletal injuries, adult neurological conditions (Parkinson’s disease, stroke, spinal cord injury, GuillanBarre syndrome, and Multiple Sclerosis) as well as pediatric and genetic neurological conditions (Cerebral Palsy, seizure disorders, and muscular dystrophy). Erin is certified as a LSVT: Big Clinician. The LSVT: Big program is a unique treatment approach for patients’ with Parkinson’s focusing on big, large amplitude movements to promote independence. Erin also has clinical experience with patients with cardiopulmonary complications and other comorbidities. Erin’s treatment approach is very hands on with a focus on keeping her patients as involved as possible during their physical therapy experience and rehabilitation. A sample of Erin’s continuing education courses include: • LSVT Big: Lee Silverman Voice Training: Big Certified • Great Lakes: Applied Techniques of Manual Therapy, An Orthopedic Approach to Myofascial Release • Great Lakes: The Basics of Sacroiliac Mobilization • Evidence Based Examination and Management of Shoulder, Hip, and Knee Joint Replacements

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of sept 29 - OCT 5 By Jeraldine Saunders
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Focus on kindness and generosity. Some people you deal with in the week ahead may be cranky or cantankerous. If you are ethical no one will be able to harm your reputation by spreading gossip and innuendo. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): During the week ahead, you may learn a new skill or become fascinated by a subject that improves your life in some important way. Work conditions may seem restrictive or intolerable if you ignore the rules. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): If you focus too closely on the minute details you might miss the big picture. You will be able to break away from a rigid mindset after the middle of the week. Then you can easily embrace an onthe-job learning opportunity. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Watching the world from an ivory tower won’t put the money in the bank. You must work hard and employ a realistic attitude to reach the top of the ladder. Don’t become discouraged by criticisms in the week ahead. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Understanding the facts may be more important than the facts themselves. A piece of news could persuade you to make a fateful change that could affect your financial situation. Remain cautious early in the week. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In the week to come you may worry about paying your bills or taking care of possessions. Fix whatever breaks and fulfil your obligations but don’t volunteer
to take on any additional duties or financial commitments. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Steer clear of family feuds. Don’t let home grown prejudices or pride blind you to the truth. In the week ahead, you might be forced to follow through on your promises but receive little recognition for your efforts. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Reverse the polarity. The upcoming week might teach you that happiness is just as contagious as negativity. Avoid starting anything of importance until the end of the week when conditions are more favorable. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Meet challenges with composure. You may be surprised to find you excel at activities you never dared to try before. You may be miserly about pennies now but can spend more freely by the end of the week. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Buck up and suck it up. The first few days of the week may be filled with minor challenges and crises of conscience. Stay on top of deadlines but don’t take on more responsibilities than you can safely handle. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Stay focused on straddling the middle ground where you can be both sociable and businesslike as this week plays out. Since you may be thrown in contact with others who expect the best try to look your best. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Play now, pay later. You might have more interest in social activities than in work, but don’t ignore obligations. Schedule important financial decisions and crucial business appointments for the last half of the week.

Wolfgang Puck’s Kitchen As Autumn Approaches, Start Planning Your First Batch Of Seasonal Fruit Fritters By Wolfgang Puck
Some of my happiest childhood memories of autumn involve weekend daytrips to pick apples with my mother and grandmother. We’d pack a picnic and come home with bags and bags of beautiful red, gold and green fruit - not to mention all the apples we’d munch on right under the trees. I’m so happy to see that it’s still possible in many places today to enjoy such outings. Even in greater Los Angeles, where I live, you can jump in the car and - just two and a half hours later - find yourself in beautiful countryside filled with orchards offering so many different kinds of apples you can pick for yourself. Apple season in all its variety inspires me to prepare so many different recipes. I love to make apple salads, combining chunks of the sweet, tart, crisp, juicy fruit with bitter greens (like arugula and radicchio), toasted nuts, sweet dates and mustard vinaigrettes. Baked apples also delight me; their hollowed-out cores filled with dried fruit, nuts, a little butter and brown sugar. Chunky apple sauce is wonderful, served at breakfast and topped with yogurt or crème fraiche. Of course, I can’t resist a good apple pie or tart with a golden-brown crust and some whipped cream or ice cream. My list could go on and on. But one of my favorite ways to prepare autumn apples is to cut them up into matchstick shapes and turn them into fritters. I’ll make an easy batter of flour, egg and buttermilk, flavoring it with familiar apple pie spices and adding baking powder to aerate the batter for lighter, crispier results. Then, I coat spoonfuls of the matchsticks with the batter and ease them into hot oil. Finally, I dust the freshly fried fritters with some confectioners’ sugar and serve them with a caramel sauce. (I have included an easy recipe for the sauce; but you should feel free to use your favorite store-bought version or some other sweet sauce you think would go well.) You could also accompany them with a scoop of good vanilla ice cream, if you like. Frying the fritters is especially easy if you have an inexpensive electric countertop deep-fryer that regulates the temperature so they cook quickly and don’t absorb oil. But you can also achieve good results with a heavy pan and a deep-frying thermometer that clips to its side; adjust the heat yourself to keep the desired temperature steady. While the fritters naturally fall into the dessert category, I also think they make a delicious accompaniment to roast poultry, pork or ham. This gives you even more ways to enjoy them throughout autumn, right up to Thanksgiving dinner and throughout the holiday season! SPICED APPLE FRITTERS Serves 6 to 8

1 cup (250 mL) all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon Pinch freshly grated nutmeg Pinch ground allspice Kosher salt Freshly ground white pepper 1 large egg 1 cup (250 mL) buttermilk 2 pounds (1 kg) red or golden delicious apples 1 to 2 tablespoons lemon juice Peanut oil or vegetable oil, for deep-frying
Confectioners’ sugar, for dusting Caramel sauce (optional, recipe follows) Sift the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and dashes of salt and white pepper into a medium mixing bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and buttermilk. While stirring the flour mixture continuously with the whisk, gradually add the wet ingredients, whisking until smooth. Cover loosely and set aside at cool room temperature for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, peel and core the apples. Slice, stack and cut them into matchsticks about 1/4 inch (6 mm) thick and 2 to 3 inches (5 to 7.5 cm) long. Put the sticks in a bowl and toss with just enough lemon juice to coat lightly and prevent them from turning brown. Heat about 3 inches (7.5 cm) of oil in an automatic deep-fryer or a heavy pot on the stove to 365 F (185 C). Place a platter covered in a double thickness of paper towels nearby. With a tablespoon, scoop up a heaping spoonful of the matchsticks, draining off any liquid, and place in the batter, turning gently to coat thoroughly. With the tablespoon, scoop up the spoonful of coated matchsticks and then use another spoon to carefully ease the spoonful into the hot oil. Repeat quickly with more matchstick spoonfuls, taking care not to overcrowd the oil. Fry, gently turning as needed with a wire skimmer, until deep golden brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the paper towels and repeat with remaining batches. To serve, transfer the fritters to a clean, warmed platter and dust lightly with confectioners’ sugar. Spoon caramel sauce into individual ramekins on dessert plates, and pass the fritters for dipping. CARAMEL SAUCE Makes about 2 cups (500 mL) 2 cups (500 mL) granulated sugar 1/2 cup (125 mL) water 1 1/2 cups (375 mL) heavy cream 2 tablespoons unsalted butter Spread the sugar evenly in a deep, heavy, large saucepan. Pour the water evenly over the sugar. Over medium-high heat, cook without stirring, tilting the pan gently once or twice to insure that all the sugar dissolves, until the syrup starts bubbling, about 3 minutes. Cook at a vigorous boil, watching attentively, until the syrup just begins turning a golden color, 5 to 6 minutes. Gently move the pan from side to side, without stirring, so the syrup continues to color evenly. Reduce the heat to medium. Continue cooking the syrup, reducing the heat slightly, until it turns very dark amber, gives off slight wisps of smoke, and smells almost burnt, 1 to 2 minutes longer. Carefully but quickly pour in the cream to stop the cooking. The caramel will bubble up vigorously, so keep your hands well clear. Immediately reduce the heat to low. Whisk to blend. Add the butter and simmer 1 minute longer, whisking until smooth. Pour into a heatproof container. Use immediately or cover and store up to several days in the refrigerator, where it will thicken as it cools. Reheat gently in a double boiler, in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over very low heat, or in the microwave.
