By Jennifer Peacock MANCHESTER – The exact spot is in the middle of a large, empty field, outlined in yellow and marked with a commemorative plaque: Historic Landmark Commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Airship Hindenburg disaster on this site, May 6, 1937, 7:25 p.m. 36 people perished. It is 82 years later, the 82nd anniversary of the Hindenburg crash. The word repeatedly used Monday night was “somber,” and not only in remembrance of those who died on the airfield eight decades ago, but for the fallen troops lost in Iraq and Afghanistan. The annual remembrance is hosted by the Navy Lakehurst Historical Society and Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, the modern-day site of the crash that happened at the airship capital of world back in 1937. “We remember the lives tragically lost,” said Captain Muhammad Khan, commanding officer naval support activity Lakehurst. He lauded those who displayed heroism and finds inspiration in the individual stories of those who showed “bravery, selflessness and courage.” “Heroes are made in the moment. Bravery is a choice.” The age of airship travel began (Tragedy - See Page 4)
By Jennifer Peacock MANCHESTER – Manchester Township school administrators rolled out their proposed $58.9 million budget for 2019-20 recently. The average homeowner in the township, whose home is assessed at $161,100, will see an increase of $25.72 in their school tax bill this year. Each school had to cut 10 percent from its desired budget this cycle, Business Administrator Craig Lorentzen said. Although no positions or programs are being cut this year, some purchases and projects had to be eliminated or postponed, keeping the overall budget within the state’s mandated two percent cap. The proposed budget of $58,889,520 comes in under the 2018-19 actual budget of $58,904,349, despite the tax levy increasing from $45,262,715 to $46,167,969. Taxpayers carry 83 percent of the local school budget. Less than 10 percent of the budget is funded through state aid, whereas surrounding districts get at least 40 percent of their budgets from that source. Federal aid and other aid make up the remaining 7 percent. Salaries and benefits comprise 77 percent of the district’s budget, Lorentzen said. Most of the budget is made up of mandated items and fixed costs the district has no control over, other than to pay. “Some things we have control over, but there’s very little of the budget we have (Budget - See Page 5)
County To Buy Land Near Pine Lake Park
By Jennifer Peacock MANCHESTER – Nearly 30 acres are being added to the county’s open space roster in town. Manchester Township is donating 29.6 acres along the Toms
River, off Ridgeway Road and around the perimeter of Pine Lake Park, to the county for its open space prog r a m. T he Nat u r al Lands Trust Fund Advisory Committee recommended the accep-
tance of this donation to the Board of Chosen Freeholder s, wh ich approved the donation at its May 1 meeting. Previously, in 2007, the county and township entered into an agreement that includ-

ed a donation of 17 acres adjacent to county-preserved property. “That was delayed due to unforeseen circumstances,” Freeholder Director Virginia E. Haines said. “The t ow n s h i p h a s n ow
agreed to donate the original lots plus the additional 12 acres.” This acquisition will connect three Natural Lands Trust Funds preserves totaling 86.5 acres along the Toms River, Haines said.
Manchester Business Administrator Donna Markulic said that back in 2007, the township received $650,000 from the county to purchase open space. Specifically, the township (Land - See Page 4)

purchased property from Ciba-Geigy and gave the county an easement on that property. The township also agreed to donate lots in Pine Lake Park that bordered that Ciba-Geigy property, but that never happened. “…The Supervising Planner of Ocean County contacted us recently, since we were currently working with them on donating property for the [Ocean County] Park, and asked to resurrect that agreement. The numerous lots…border on the east side of Pine Lake park and are all wetlands and unbuildable,” Markulic said in an email to The Manchester Times. “They will be deed restricted as Open Space and listed on the Recreational and Open Space Inventory overseen by Green Acres through the DEP.” The park that she mentioned will be
Tragedy:
Continued From Page 1 in the early 1920s with the United States, Great Britain and Germany leading the way. By the 1930s, only Germany pursued airship development. The dirigibles cut travel time by weeks and one, the Graf Zeppelin, completed a 990,000-mile around-the-globe flight. The Hindenburg was an 804-foot-long dirigible capable of speeds up to 84 mph. The General’s

It had a successful first year of transatlantic flights in 1936, making 10 trips and carrying more than 1,000 passengers total from Germany to the United States. Its first scheduled transatlantic trip for 1937 left from Frankfurt, Germany, on May 3, 1937, with 36 passengers and 61 crewmen. A line of thunderstorms near the Lakehurst Naval Air Station in Manchester delayed the Hindenburg’s landing for several hours May 6. But finally, around 7 p.m., the crew was given the all-clear
to land. At 7:25 p.m., the Hindenburg burst into flames and in less than a minute dropped to the ground. Thirty-six people - 13 passengers, 22 crew, and one ground crew member - died. The age of airships died as well. Ocean County Freeholder Director Virginia Haines, whose mother worked as a nurse on base, and was there the evening of the Hindenburg disaster, stayed in touch with Walter and Werner Doehner, two brothers, then ages 10 and 8 respectively,
who survived the crash. She called the tragedy the “biggest historical event” of that time. Although the ground that guests stood on was hallowed, Haines said everyone needs to remember its part of an active base - Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst - that’s a large part of Ocean County’s economy. Dr. Horst Schirmer, the son of the Hindenburg’s aerodynamical engineer, agreed, that the base occupies not only an important place in aviation history, but its future.

on land along routes 571 and 547 that borders Jackson. The county plans to build its 28th park on 120 developable acres there. The Natural Lands Trust program is dedicated to protecting open space in Ocean County. The fund was approved by Ocean County voters in 1997, and established a 1.2-cent tax to fund land acquisitions. The program generates about $8 million per year. A nine-member advisory committee, established in 1998, nominates properties for the Freeholders to consider. The county both purchases land and accepts donations of land. Freeholder director Gerry Little has said that in a county that’s 408,000 acres, about 60 percent of it is permanently protected against development through Pinelands, state parks and 21,000 acres preserved through the natural lands and farmlands programs.

Budget:
Continued From Page 1 control over, between the salaries and the pensions and the transportation, the utilities,” Superintendent David Trethaway said. There are few revenue streams for school districts, but Manchester benefits from the tuition it receives from Lakehurst, which sends its high schoolers to Manchester Township High School. The district also tries to slash costs through cooperatives with other school districts and municipalities. They also do a lot of work in-house with their maintenance staff, rather than relying on outside contractors. The district will make any staffing cuts through attrition and possibly two non-renewals of contracts. While neighboring districts like Toms River and Brick townships are experiencing devastating cuts due to the state’s new school funding formula, known as S2, Manchester escaped drastic state aid cuts this year, losing only $32,569. However, the district has already been underfunded for nearly a decade now, having never recovered more than $1 million in state aid it lost back in 2010. The district expects $5,374,263 in state aid for 2019-20. Manchester is part of the Save Our Schools coalition, 72 schools around the state that are asking the governor to look at the
The Manchester Times, May 11, 2019, Page 5 funding formula and its negative impact on schools. The problem Manchester has always faced is that despite a majority senior citizen community, the funding formula considers the district “wealthy.” “We’re hopeful that [the state] will make some adjustments. But I don’t think they’re ever going to correct our situation, because there’s only three of us in the whole state: it’s us, Berkeley, and a district in Cape May County. But what we are hoping is that they will adjust some of the other pieces on the funding formula. For example, special education,” Lorentzen said. At present, special education is funded at only 14 percent. “If they fund special education fully, that would be a tremendous help for not only us but for many districts.” Included in this budget: • Funding for curriculum revisions to meet state standards • Funding for 35 out-of-district placements • Funding for professional development • Funding for new textbooks in some classes • Funding for new math curriculum • Funding for security upgrades, including new security officer at the middle school • Replacement of six school buses • Funding for new and replacement classroom technology • Maintaining and refurbishing buildings and grounds

Smith: Bill Would Provide Veterans More Recreational Opportunities On Federal Lands
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Rep. Chris Smith (R-4th) reintroduced bipartisan legislation, HR 2435, to help military veterans heal and seek treatment through outdoor recreation, by providing them better access to federal lands. “Veterans hospitals are renowned for intricate and comprehensive specialty surgeries and treatments, but we can and should do more,” said Smith, former Veterans Committee Chairman and author of the Veterans Health Programs Improvement Act (P.L. 108-422), which authorized new research and education centers for treating veterans with complex multi-trauma combat injuries; today there are five major polytrauma rehabilitation centers. “Studies have shown - and veterans organizations strongly concur that outdoor recreational activities can provide powerful therapeutic and healing benefits as well as camaraderie for veterans struggling with combat-related injuries or post-traumatic stress,” said Smith. “We should be thinking outsidethe-box to discover as many ways as possible to help veterans, and opening up federal lands and removing barriers to access for remedial outdoor recreation is a no-brainer. My legislation would help increase access to this treatment option.” The Outdoor Recreation Therapy for Veterans Act would direct the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to establish, within 180 days of the bill’s enactment into law, an inter-agency task force to increase the availability of federal lands for use for medical therapy for veterans. Among other actions, the task force would: Be co-chaired by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs and the Secretary of the Interior and include the Secretaries of HHS, Agriculture, Defense, and Homeland Security, and the Commanding General of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; Discover opportunities for collaboration between the VA and public land agencies to increase the opportunities for veterans to enjoy outdoor recreation; Identify obstacles that exist to veteran outdoor recreation. Smith’s legislation also would: Require a preliminary report within 180 days on the findings of the Task Force; Require a report no later than one year after enactment of the legislation on the Task Force’s proposals
to better facilitate the use of public lands for the treatment of veterans. Smith’s legislation is supported by various veteran advocacy and outdoor recreation groups, including Paralyzed Veterans of America, Disabled American Veterans (DAV), American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW), Minority Veterans of America, Blue Star Families, Vet Voice Foundation, Sierra Club, Adventure Not War, REI Co-op, PeopleForBikes, Outdoor Alliance, Outdoor Industry Association, Outdoor Research, and the National Parks Conservation Association. “DAV has supported numerous programs over the years to provide recreational therapies for injured and ill veterans, most notably the DAV and VA co-sponsored National Disabled Veterans Winter Sports Clinic and National Disabled Veterans TEE Tournament. We know the therapeutic benefit these experiences have, and are pleased to support The Outdoor Recreation Therapy for Veterans Act as it could create even more opportunities for veterans to experience the life-changing power of alternative therapies,” said DAV National Commander Dennis R. Nixon. “For 100 years The American Legion has been concerned with making veterans heal not just from the wounds of war, but any disabilities or conditions incurred as a result of their military service,” National Commander Brett P. Reistad said. “We also support the use of a wide variety of therapies. Due to the physical requirements to serve in the military, many veterans enjoy outdoor activities. The American Legion welcomes any legislation that combines recreational therapy for veterans with the use of public resources.” “Outdoor recreation therapies such as hunting and fishing provide camaraderie and healing for veterans who struggle with the wounds of war. The VFW supports expanding such opportunities for veterans and thanks Congressman Chris Smith for introducing the Outdoor Recreation Therapy for Veterans Act,” said VFW Executive Director Bob Wallace. “This bill would rightfully evaluate and remove barriers to access for veterans who would like to use outdoor activities to cope with their service-related illnesses and injuries.” “The outdoors provide military
families a much-needed place of recreation, rejuvenation, and healing. At Blue Star Families, programs such as Blue Star Parks connect the military community to nature, because the parks make a difference. An overwhelming majority of military families report that visiting parks provides a much-needed outlet from the stress of their daily lives,” said Kathy Roth-Douquet, Founder and CEO of Blue Star Families. “We commend this bi-partisan bill from Congressmen Chris Smith and Adam Smith, and Senators Cortez Masto and Daines, because it will make our nation’s backyard more accessible for our veteran community and their families. Protecting and preserving these beautiful lands is one of the reasons we serve and sacrifice, so it means so much to us to enjoy them with our families.” “Veterans have demanded for years outdoor recreation programs be a part of our health treatment. It is long overdue for the VA to recognize this basic, yet vital need... they now have the opportunity to begin providing Veterans with this service!” said Robert White, VP of Internal Relations for Minority Veterans of America. “At REI Co-op, we believe a life outdoors is a life well-lived. It can even be healing, especially for our veterans who have sacrificed much of their lives to protect our nation,” said Eric Artz, REI’s President and CEO. “We owe them our gratitude not just today, but every day. So, we applaud congressmen Chris Smith and Adam Smith, and Senators Cortez Masto and Daines for taking this basic step - instructing the VA and the nation’s land managers to determine how our lands can be used to help our veterans heal. We know the outdoors is good for you. It’s only right that we make it as easy as possible for our veterans to rejuvenate among the country’s natural wonders.” “As a combat veteran working at the intersection of public lands and outdoor recreation for veterans and military families, I have experienced the healing power of nature firsthand,” stated Rob Vessels, Director of Sierra Club’s Military Outdoors Campaign and Army veteran. “The Sierra Club believes that every veteran should have the opportunity to get outdoors when they return home from service. We applaud and support this bi-partisan bill and thank Congressmen Chris Smith and Adam Smith, as
outdoors can help and treat those who have served in uniform,” Jenn Dice, Vice Business for the Business Network of PeopleForBikes. “Our veterans deserve the best care available and looking into innovative solutions for leveraging our public lands is something we should all welcome.” “Our public lands help define us - so much of who we are as a people, and what we have accomplished as a nation arise out of these cherished places,” observed Adam Cramer, Executive Director of Outdoor Alliance. “The power of our public lands to restore is self-evident, so we are delighted with the compassion of congressmen Chris Smith and Adam Smith, and Senators Cortez Masto and Daines, to better connect our veterans with the healing aspects of our public lands.” “Veterans are integral to the outdoor industry — they rely on our outdoor products when they serve our country and many become key members of the outdoor industry workforce and leadership when they complete their service,” said Amy Roberts, executive director of Outdoor Industry Association. “We are also learning more and more about the unique and powerful connection between mental and physical health and being outdoors — we need to continue to do all we can to ensure that our veterans
well as all sponsors for their efforts to improve the lives of our veterans. When our veterans thrive, so too does our society.” “Time outdoors was the place that put me not just on my healing journey, but my journey fully home when I got home from war. After casting about for two years trying to find a place to call home and a new mission and team, it was rock climbing, and later white water rafting and skiing that truly brought me back home,” said Stacy Bare, OIF Veteran 06-07, 2014 National Geographic Adventurer of the Year, and Founder of Adventure Not War. “I commend any effort of Congress that helps veterans, service members, and their families, people just like me in making it easier to get outdoors. There are real, scientifically verified health benefits to time outdoors. Perhaps more importantly, time outdoors, structured the right way, helps encourage people to seek and complete traditional treatments. I couldn’t be prouder of this bi-partisan effort in Congress!” “Outdoor recreation is an important part of caring for America’s veterans. The legislation being introduced by Rep. Chris Smith and Rep. Adam Smith, and Senators Cortez Masto and Daines, will help to develop needed coordination among our federal agencies to better understand how the

have access to the outdoors to heal, reconnect and enjoy the special places their service helps keep open and free.” “Preliminary evidence suggests that outdoor hiking—combining the benefits of nature contact, group bonding, and physical activity—may be effective in treating veterans who suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We also know that nature contact has been shown to reduce stress and anxiety, and is associated with decreased likelihood of depression,” said Gregory Bratman, Doug Walker Endowed Professor of Environmental and Forest Sciences at the University of Washington. “This bill would provide an opportunity to maximize use of federal lands to gain more understanding about the ways in which nature experience benefits the people who have served our country, informing the design of future interventions aimed at addressing their pressing mental and physical health needs.” “This study is needed to recognize the healing power of the outdoors for all users, especially our military veterans. The benefits are real to anyone who has enjoyed our parks and public lands,” said Ani Kame’enui, Legislative Director of the National Parks Conservation Association.

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY Letters To The Editor
E ditorial What Do Our Towns Need? Toms River township historian and retired Township Clerk J. Mark Mutter researched some old newspapers for this week’s edition of The Toms River Times. He fou nd that the local paper, the New Jersey Courier, made a list of what the town needed in 1869. It stated: “ We wa nt a t ow n clock. We want a steamboat to New York. We wa nt a la rge r school house. We want a public library. We want free public schools. We want the village of Toms River to be incorporated. We want a rail road along the shore.” In 1890, they still had a list of demands that included large hotels, a fire department, and “Capitalists to put up houses and boom the town for all its worth.” A yea r later, t hey were asking for a better water supply, better roads, a public wharf, clean streets and better schools. It made me wonder: what would that list look like today? A lot of items on the wish list were physical – a library, a rail road. We have certainly built up a lot more since then and there aren’t too many physical things we need. Several of those things are perennial. We all want better roads, and a better water supply. Most of the necessities we already have (schools, etc.) it’s just a matter of how to maint ai n t he m. We have volunteer fire and first
aid squads, but there’s little in the way of new blood volunteering and many are going to paid services. Some towns have a clock. I don’t want to speak on behalf of the entire region, but I think it safe to say we need: • A homeless shelter. Doesn’t have to be huge. But it should be near services and jobs. Mo r e jo b s . It ’s n o t enough to create commercial zones and hope for the best. We need to entice employers to the area so that people aren’t com muting to work 30 or more minutes a day. And these jobs need to be able to pay a livable wage for the area. • An office park. See above. • A t e c h c e n t e r. There’s a brain drain going on where anyone who graduates with an advanced degree move elsewhere. • More open space. The county has reported that about half of the county is open space. That said, more open space. • Lower taxes. I think this goes without saying, but there are a lot of padded positions in municipal and county gover n ment that get paid a lot more than their work entails. Ever y super visor could take a 10 percent pay cut and still be rich, while saving residents a lot of money. That’s my list off the top of my head. What do you think your town needs?

Speeding Is Unacceptable In Howell We have a dangerous speeding problem on our residential Addison Road in Howell and, for years, have addressed letters to past mayors, the traffic unit sergeant, council members, and the present mayor, Theresa Berger. Enclosed is a letter recently sent to the President of the Monmouth County Chiefs of Police [Scott Patterson]: “As residents of Addison Road in Howell, we are
appealing to you for help. There has been absolutely no change in the excessive speed of cars on our street. In fact, the blatant disregard for the posted speed limit has worsened. Is this acceptable? T he major it y of cars continually speed past children walking or on bikes, people walking or jogging, mothers pushing carriages, or others walking their dogs. Is this acceptable? Moreover, speeding drivers have been observed crossing the double line to pass and shouting or using

to those driving the speed limit. Road rage is both a dangerous and frightening concern. It would be horrible if a tragedy occurred as a result of this problem. But again, is this acceptable? There is no indication that the police chief has set up inconspicuous radar to address the problem. Why is Addison Road a residential street where excessive speed has been continuously ignored for a very long time? Does the police chief call this protecting the community? Or perhaps because this is simply acceptable. We have no answers. Chief Patterson, as President of the Monmouth County Chiefs of Police Association, we are asking that you use your influence to help us. Perhaps there is an underlying reason why our concerns for the safety of our children have not been addressed. We, as residents, know it is not possible to catch every speeding car, truck, or even school bus that blatantly ignores the speed limit. But there must be something that can be done. If the chief can allow three and four officers to eat lunch at Aldrich Pizza and Chick-fil-A together, then there is obviously not a shortage of officers available to radar. The most serious times are between 7-9 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. to approximately 8 p.m. Monday-Friday, as well as miscellaneous times over the weekend. It is obvious our road is used as a fast shortcut for many drivers. The excessive speeding on Addison Road will never be acceptable to its residents. Past letters have been addressed to the chief and mayor; however, they have yielded no results. We appreciate any help you could give and than k you for this consideration.” Residents of Addison Road Howell

Lakehurst CodeRED Community Notification
LAKEHURST – The Borough of Lakehurst has contracted with Emergency Communications Network to license its CodeRED highspeed notification solution. The CodeRED system provides Lakehurst officials the ability to quickly deliver messages to targeted areas or the entire Borough of Lakehurst. Such systems are only as good as the telephone number database supporting them. “If your phone number is not in the database, you will not be called.” One of the reasons the CodeRED system was selected is it gives individuals and businesses the ability to add their own phone numbers directly into the system’s database, this is an extremely important feature. No one should automatically assume his or her phone number is included. All individuals and businesses are encouraged to enroll. Required information includes first and last name, street address (physical address, no
P.O. boxes), city, state, zip code, and primary phone number, additional phone numbers can be entered as well. All businesses should register, as well as all individuals who have unlisted phone numbers, who have changed their phone number or address within the past year, and those who use a cellular phone or VoIP phone as their primary number. CodeRED allows geographically based delivery, which means street addresses are required to ensure emergency notification calls are received by the proper individuals in a given situation. The system works for cell phones too, but we need to have an associated street address to provide relevant messages. CodeRED gives those who want to be included an easy and secure method for inputting information. The data collected will only be used for emergency notification purposes.

We will also be registering this event with NJDEP Division of Fish and Wildlife’s, HOFNOD’s 3rd Annual Youth Fishing Challenge.
The Division of fish and Wildlife supports all those organizations participating in the Event by providing program materials and prizes for the children.

This event is for children up to 15 years of age. Free food and prizes will be given to participants. There is no fee charged to attend this event. Children must bring their own fishing equipment.

Team Science: Hearing Help & Hope…
Did you know? People and organizations worldwide are putting funding, expertise, and dedication toward learning more about hearing loss for continued innovative solutions and a possible future cure. Here are three exciting developments: GENETICS Professor Xue Zhong Liu, M.D., Ph.D., of the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine Depa r t ment of Otola r y ngolog y, won a $3 million grant last summer from the National Institutes of Health toward continued research on hearing-loss-related biological treatments and clinical diagnosis. Per a university news release, the professor and his team will use the award for activities such as performing “preclinical studies of gene- and cell-ba sed t he r apy approa ch of CR ISPR /Cas9-mediated genome editing to t reat hearing loss.” * We’re looking forward to seeing the outcomes of this initiative. NOISE In a collaboration among the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, the National Center for Rehabilitative Auditory Research, and the Department of Defense Hearing Center of Excellence, researchers will probe the potential long-term effects of both excess noise exposure — one of the most common and preventable causes of hearing loss — and certain chemicals on
active-duty personnel and veterans. The Noise Outcomes in Ser vice Members Epidemiology study will follow participants for some 20 or more years, collecting and analyzing data on hearing and tinnitus issues and other changes. TINNITUS Speaking of tinnitus, a common and sometimes debilitating issue often associated with hearing loss and typically involving ringing, buzzing, or other perceived noise in the ears: The British Tinnitus Association, in partnership with Tinnit us Hub, has awarded University of Groningen Ph.D. student Elouise Koops a research grant through its Daniel Ballinger Memorial Fund to study auditory-pathway changes brought on by tinnitus and hearing loss. The award is relatively small — 5,000 British pounds (about $6,400) — but it contributes to the global hunt for much-needed answers. These are three exciting developments: As science continues making headway, remember that HELP IS AVAILABLE TODAY! If you’ve experienced changes in your hearing or it’s been a while since your last checkup, please call our caring team at 732-818-3610 (Toms River/Whiting) or 609-978-8946 (Manahawkin) for your appointment now!

H ere ’ s T o Y our H ealth Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
Caffeine Is A Natural Option For ADHD By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. Caffeine is the number one stimulant and and psychoactive drug in the world! The category of ADHD medications such as Concerta, Adderall, Ritalin, Dexedrine and others are “stimulant” drugs, and so is caffeine. They all raise certain compounds in the body such as dopamine and norepinephrine (and others). Here are 5 reasons why i think this is a good option for some of you: 1. Most all medical treatments for ADHD include a nervous system stimulant, which may sound strange to you, considering the patient appears to be overly active, wound up or unfocused. But this is true, conventional treatment of ADHD utilizes physiological stimulants. Caffeine is a stimulant. 2. A study published in the European Neuropsychopharmacology, concluded that caffeine can normalize dopamine levels (which is exactly what the pharmacy drugs do). Caffeine raises both dopamine and norephinephrine, just like the medications. 3. There was a study that evaluated caffeinated tea. They concluded that “The caffeine in tea can reduce one’s fatigue, increase people’s self-confidence, motivation, alertness, vigilance, efficiency, concentration, and cognitive performance.” 4. So profound is caffeine’s impact on the brain and cognitive function that Stanford University even funded a small study to evaluate if dextroamphetamine is superior to caffeine in Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). 5. Caffeine has been shown to extinguish the action of adenosine receptors in your brain. This was discussed in a 2014 review article published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology which recommended the use of caffeine for ADHD.
Just like methylphenidate, caffeine begins to work in about an hour, and as you might expect, the effect wears off after about four hours. Both methylphenidate and caffeine are absorbed and physiologically processed in a similar way. Their mechanism of action is the same, as are the side effects! One is a prescription amphetamine drug, the other is America’s favorite hot coffee! The downside is that caffeine can wear out adrenals if taken long-term. Caffeine content varies with each food and beverage making daily dosing through diet somewhat difficult. With tea, the amount of time that you steep the teabag determines the caffeine content. Some people find that caffeine helps their ADHD, while others find that it doesn’t offer any benefit at all. Pay attention to your body and work with your doctor/therapist to find out what is right for you. Too much caffeine or excessively high dosing on stimulants medications may cause insomnia, tachycardia, aggression, diarrhea and dehydration. The intake of caffeinated drinks, caffeine pills or energy drinks containing caffeine or guarana may seem like a nice and exciting alternative to prescription medications, I just want to caution you that if combined with conventional (amphetamine) medications, the impact could be dangerous. As an aside, many studies point to DHA Fish Oil as a useful essential fatty acid, which may be taken with medications or caffeine. How much caffeine is too much? The United States FDA hasn’t fully defined this but the Canadian government has suggested not to exceed 85 mg in kids aged 10 to 12 years. I have a much more comprehensive version of this article that I can email to you if you sign up for my free newsletter at suzycohen.com

Inside The Law Trusts For Minor Children
Robert C. Shea Esq.
By: Marc S. Galella. Esq. and Robert C. Shea, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates
Where parents have minor children, they often want to establish trusts in their Wills for the benefit of the minor children in the event that both parents should pass away. In such a case, the money is held in the trust for the benefit of the children. A person called the “trustee” is appointed by the Will to manage the trust on behalf of the children. Most trusts for the benefit of minor children allow the money to be used for their health, education, maintenance and support. The term “education” usually also refers to college education. There are several ways to go about doing this. The most common ways are the (1) common trust or (2) the separate trust. In the common trust, all of the money is held until the youngest child reaches an age specified in the Will. Upon the youngest child reaching the specified age, the monies remaining in the trust are then distributed to all of the children. In a separate trust, the assets are divided among the children and a separate trust is created for each child and each child receives their trust when the each reach the specified age. What are the advantages and disadvantages of each? The advantage of the common trust is that the money is held until the youngest child reaches the specified age. In this way, the trustee can use the money in the trust and if necessary spend more of the money in the trust on one child as opposed to the others. As a parent, most people would be willing to
spend everything they had on one child at the expense of the other children if that child required greater care Marc S. Galella Esq. than the other children. By using a common trust you give the trustee the flexibility to do this. The drawback to the common trust is that the older children will have to wait a longer period of time to receive their share of the inheritance depending upon the age of the youngest child. This could be a disadvantage if there is a significant age difference between the youngest and oldest child. The advantage of the separate trust is that each child will receive their share of the estate when they reach the specified age. This means that the older children do not have to wait for their inheritance until the youngest child reaches the specified age. The drawback to the separate trust is the trustee can only use the money in that individual child’s trust for the care of that child. If one child requires significantly more care than the other children, the trustee is limited to the amount of money in that child’s trust and cannot use the money in the other trusts. Which trust is better for you for your is something to be discussed with your estate planning attorney when making up your Will.

Dear Joel, I have a problem that I hope you will be able to help me with. I have been married to my husband for 30 years as of this May and he has a phobia of flying on planes and we just booked our first vacation in almost ten years to Italy. At first, he was okay with the fact that he was going to have to get on an airplane, but last night he told me we should cancel. What should I do? I don’t want this to sound selfish, but I really want to go on this vacation. Marissa Lake Como, NJ Dear Marissa, Thank you for reaching out to me about this issue. First off, Happy Anniversary. Secondly, please do not think that you are selfish because you most certainly are not. You got excited for a vacation that has been planned for a long time and now that the date is approaching,
there is a possibility that it won’t happen so your disappointment is totally normal. As for your husband not wanting to fly on planes, I would remind him that it is very normal to be afraid of flying, but despite what you hear on the news, flying is very safe. I have flown overseas many times and find that the service is much friendlier too because it’s such a long flight. I would also tell him to bring a computer or a phone onto the plane and play some games to get his mind off of being on a plane. I hope this helps. Joel Write to joel@preferredcares.com.

2019 Applications For Farm To School Award Program Now Available
TRENTON – New Jersey Secretary of Agriculture Douglas H. Fisher today announced the 2019 Jersey Fresh Farm to School Recognition and Award program to find the top school in the state participating in Farm to School activities. The program also will recognize schools that work with farmers and the community to ensure students have access to healthy Jersey Fresh fruits and vegetables in their school cafeterias and teach about agriculture through growing school gardens. Applications are now available for the Jersey Fresh Farm to School Recognition and Award program at surveymonkey. com/r/2019F2SRecognition. The deadline to complete and submit the application is May 31, 2019. One exemplary school that provides the most meaningful Farm to School overview will be presented with the “Best in New Jersey Farm to School Award” during Jersey Fresh Farm to School Week September 23-27, 2019 “We’ve witnessed some amazing Farm to School programs these past few years,” Secretary Fisher said. “We have more than 200 schools that have incorporated various aspects of Farm to School. Our goal is to encourage students to make healthier food choices, learn about New Jersey agriculture and develop an appreciation for where their
food comes from.” Schools that meet the criteria in the application will be acknowledged for their Farm to School efforts by receiving a Jersey Fresh Farm to School promotional materials kit, including a Jersey Fresh Farm to School banner, aprons, pencils, seasonality charts, Jersey Tastes flyers and media templates to announce this recognition. Farm to School programs provide hands-on, experiential learning opportunities to help students learn about local agriculture, how food grows and what it means to eat healthfully with lots of fresh fruits and vegetables.

How Can You Protect Yourself From Osteoporosis?
By Kimberly Bosco OCEAN COUNTY – Osteoporosis is a common disease, accounting for more than 2 million broken bones per year in the US. Want to prevent yourself from becoming one of the 200 million people suffering from osteoporosis? The Ocean County Health Department is here to help. The OCHD recognizes May as National Osteoporosis Month, reminding residents that there are ways to help slow or stop the loss of bone mass and help prevent fractures no matter what your age. “Osteoporosis is often called a “silent disease” because unfortunately for many people they don’t know they have it until it’s too late. It usually takes breaking a bone before a person is diagnosed with the disease,” stated Ocean County Freeholder Gerry P. Little, Liaison to the Ocean County Board of Health. Start thinking about your bone health and take action now! The National Osteoporosis Foundation (NOF) recommends these tips to improve bone health and prevent osteoporosis: Get to know your risk factors: age, gender, lifestyle, medical history, family history and whether you take any medication or
have medical conditions that can lead to bone loss. Get active: Do regular weight-bearing and muscle-strengthening exercise Eat Your Way to Healthy Bones: Calcium, vitamin D, lean protein, fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats are the key to eating for healthy bones. Ask your healthcare provider when you should get a bone density test Don’t smoke and don’t drink too much alcohol: No more than two drinks a day is best for bone health “Bones affected by osteoporosis have lower density or strength which leads to bones becoming more fragile and likely to break. Osteoporosis causes severe pain, suffering and life-altering loss of mobility yet it is treatable and even preventable. Diet, exercise and a healthy lifestyle are keys to preventing and managing osteoporosis,” stated Daniel E. Regenye, Ocean County Health Department (OCHD) Public Health Coordinator. For more information on National Osteoporosis Month and how to build and maintain strong bones for life, visit ochd. org. Check out the OCHD’s new website at phu2.org.

Shoulder Pain in the Overhead Athlete
S
By: Joel Maietta, DPT, Facility Manager
houlder pain in the overhead athlete is a very common complaint. Considering the fact that separation forces in the shoulder during throwing can equal someone’s own body weight, it is no surprise that pain can occur. This activity requires a combination of strength, coordination, synchronicity, and body control. Because of these factors, shoulder pain is often seen in athletes of all ages as well as any adult who may decide to throw a ball just one time. During a physical therapy evaluation for shoulder pain from throwing, there are multiple parts of the body that need to be assessed. These include shoulder motion, shoulder strength, shoulder blade strength, core strength, as well as lower body strength and flexibility.

Wolfgang Puck’s Kitchen New Take On Caesar Salad Shows Dish’s Versatility By Wolfgang Puck What makes a recipe food lovers refer to as a classic? It has to taste delicious and, of course, look beautiful. It should satisfy the other senses, too, offering enticing aromas, pleasing textures, and even delightful sounds. A classic should also stand the test of time, regardless of whatever food fads may come or go. I’d like to add another qualification: A classic must be so good that it’s also versatile, leaving room for some creativity. Professional chefs and home cooks alike come to appreciate the ability such dishes have to seem fresh and new when we want them to. By such standards, Caesar salad certainly counts as a classic. The improvised creation of restaurateur Caesar Cardini, who whipped it up late one evening in 1924 from odds and ends in his kitchen in Tijuana, Mexico, the dish has long since become a worldwide favorite: a simple yet complex-tasting assemblage of crisp, chilled Romaine lettuce; garlicky croutons; and a rich dressing of egg, garlic, olive oil, Dijon mustard, Parmesan and a hint of canned salted anchovy fillets, which may also be added whole as a garnish. Restaurant guests today have long since grown accustomed to enjoying Caesar salad as a dinner appetizer or lunchtime main dish, the latter frequently topped with grilled seafood, chicken or steak. I’ve seen several variations: low-fat Caesars in which the dressing’s egg is replaced by creamy, fat-free Greek yogurt; Southwestern Caesar salads seasoned with smoky dried chipotle chilies; and trendy Caesars in which raw kale replaces the Romaine. And, if they’re made with culinary know-how, they all work, as smart variations on a classic often do. In that spirit, I’d like to share one of my own spins on Caesar salad; this one inspired by the cuisine of southern France, where I spent some of my formative years as a chef cooking under the late, great Raymond Thuilier at his famed, Michelin-starred L’Oustau de Baumaniere. This version keeps the lettuce and dressing largely unchanged. Its departure from tradition comes in the croutons. Instead of the usual bread cubes, I start with wider, bite-sized pieces. Before baking, I toss them not only with garlic, olive oil and Parmesan, but also fragrant fresh herbs you might find growing on a Provencal hillside. Then, just before serving, I spread each crouton with tapenade, the classic olive spread of the region, for which I offer an easy, delicious recipe here. Combined with the cold lettuce and fragrant dressing, it all adds up to a Caesar salad that tastes both unmistakably authentic and surprisingly different. I hope you enjoy this version, which makes a perfect springtime or summer recipe. May it also inspire you to come up with your own variations on a classic! PROVENCAL CAESAR SALAD WITH TAPENADE CROUTONS Serves 2 to 4 For the tapenade croutons: 1/3 cup (85 mL) extra-virgin olive oil 2 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan cheese 2 tablespoons minced garlic 1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano leaves 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves 1-pound (500-g) loaf day-old sourdough bread, cut into slices 1/3 inch (8 mm) thick, slices cut into large bite sized pieces, to get about 2 cups (500 mL) of pieces Black-and-green olive tapenade (recipe follows) For the salad: 2 heads baby romaine lettuce or hearts of romaine, or 1 large head romaine, leaves separated, rinsed well, patted dry thoroughly, wrapped in a clean damp kitchen towel, and chilled in the refrigerator
Caesar vinaigrette (recipe follows) Freshly grated Parmesan cheese Freshly ground black pepper First, make the tapenade croutons: Preheat the oven to 350 F (175 C). Meanwhile, in a medium mixing bowl, stir together the oil, Parmesan, garlic, oregano and thyme. Add the bread, and toss well to coat. Arrange the bread in a single layer on a baking sheet, and bake until golden brown on all sides, turning them about halfway through, about 10 minutes total. Remove from the oven, cool to room temperature, and store in a cool, dry place until ready to use. For the salad, trim the lettuce and tear into bite-sized pieces; or, if using smaller leaves, keep them whole. Put the lettuce in a large mixing bowl and toss well with enough Caesar vinaigrette to coat evenly. Arrange the lettuce attractively on chilled salad plates, stacking whole leaves or mounding pieces. Sprinkle with Parmesan and black pepper to taste. Just before serving, spread a thin layer of black-andgreen tapenade on one side of each crouton. Arrange croutons on top of or around the salads. Serve immediately. BLACK-AND-GREEN OLIVE TAPENADE Makes 1 heaping cup (250 mL) 1 cup (250 mL) Nicoise olives, pitted 1 cup (250 mL) small green French olives (Picholines), pitted 1/4 cup (60 mL) drained oil-packed sun-dried tomato pieces 1 tablespoon drained capers 1 clove garlic, trimmed and peeled 1 oil-packed anchovy fillet, drained 1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh basil leaves 1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves 1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves 1/4 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano leaves 1/4 cup (60 mL) extra-virgin olive oil Put all of the ingredients except the oil in a food processor. Pulse the machine on and off until the ingredients are coarsely chopped and well blended. Turn on the machine and continue processing while slowly adding the oil, until the mixture resembles a coarse puree. Transfer to a covered container and use as needed, storing in the refrigerator for up to one week. CAESAR VINAIGRETTE Makes about 2 cups (500 mL) 1 large pasteurized egg 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice 1 tablespoon minced garlic 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 1/4 teaspoon crush red pepper flakes 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 2 oil-packed anchovy fillets, drained and mashed 1 scant cup (250 mL) peanut oil 1/3 cup (85 mL) extra-virgin olive oil 1/4 cup (60 mL) freshly grated Parmesan cheese Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, lemon juice, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, red pepper flakes, mustard and anchovies. While whisking continuously, slowly drizzle in the oils to form a thick emulsion. Stir in the cheese, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to one week, whisking again before use.
