Geese being attacked. A service dog-in-training killed. A cat shot with a crossbow. The
other geese being attacked. The natural instinct when reading these articles is outrage. How could someone do such a thing? Who is really the animal here? If you’re saddened or angered by news like
this – and you should be – know that there are ways to help animals locally. There are several animal shelters that need donations and volunteers. They would welcome help from people who want to make the
world better for animals in their area. Calling All Cats Rescues, in Jackson, always needs kitten and cat chow, and cleaning supplies. They are currently well stocked with linens, said Sara Cam(Animal- See Page 6)

Howell Film Students Win Big At State Competition By Kimberly Bosco HOWELL – Howell High School film students did not return emptyhanded after their trip to the 2019 NJ High School Film Challenge, recently held at Jackson Liberty High School. Students from Howell High Schools’ Fine and Performing Arts Center program earned five big wins at the film contest, including Best Overall Film. According to the Freehold Regional High School District, HHS won the following: • “Setting Sail,” directed by Isabella DeFabritus, won Best Overall Film, Best Screenplay and Best Actress for Juliana Santamauro. • “Fostering Hope,” a short film created by Olivia Douglas, Joan Connolly, Lulu Chouha and Mitch Ritter, took home second place for Best Drama. • “Paper Dolls,” a film created by Sophie Genovese-Mester, Victoria Kral, Lily Fraser, Danny Fischer, and Maggie Orsino, won Best Use of Prop. During the Film Challenge, students not only get the opportunity to showcase their film creations, but also engage in workshops with industry professionals, participate in hands-on learning with equipment and teacher roundtable talk, and screen winning films. With the 2019 wins, ET Video students are adding to the trophies already nabbed in previous years at the event. The five awards in 2019 ties the program high from the year before. “The Rebels are enjoying an exceptionally successful year in program history, with the ET Video students having screened 28 films at 16 different festivals with 11 wins,” stated the district. While they wait to hear back on their entries to various festivals around the country and the world, you can see some of these Howell students’ films close to home in the meantime. A few films will be screened at the upcoming Lighthouse International Film Festival in June and the Monmouth Film Festival in August. Visit HowellFPACVideo on YouTube to get a look for yourself at what these students have been working on.

Around The Jersey Shore CASA for Children of Monmouth County Seeks Volunteers
COLTS NECK – Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children (CASA for Children) of Monmouth County is seeking adults, 21 years and older to act as advocates for children in foster care. A CASA volunteer is a trained citizen who is appointed by a Judge to represent the best interests of a child in court. There are currently 550 children from Monmouth County who have been removed from their homes because of abuse or neglect. Although CASA for Children of Monmouth County continues to serve more of these children each year, the need for CASA volunteers continues to grow as more children enter the child welfare and court systems. To help meet this need, CASA is seeking caring, committed adults who are willing to speak up for a child as they go through the court system. CASA volunteers work one-on-one with an abused or neglected child, advocating for his or her best interests. Essentially, CASA volunteers “speak up” for these children in the court and child welfare systems, making sure they are safe and well-cared for,

are getting the services they need, and are placed in a permanent, safe, nurturing home as quickly as possible. These children may also have health, learning, emotional, or psychological challenges, and need special services that the Court should be aware of via the CASA volunteer’s updates. “CASA volunteers don’t require any specific education. All they need is compassion, objectivity, and a commitment to children. We’ll train and supervise them to be effective voices in court,” said Cynthia Van Brunt, Executive Director for CASA for Children of Monmouth County. “Our volunteers come from all walks of life, and diverse socio-economic and ethnic backgrounds. They are ordinary individuals who rise to the extraordinary by making a difference in the life of a child.” Anyone interested in volunteer opportunities should visit casaofmonmouth.org for upcoming information sessions and program details or contact Lynn Goelz at 732-460-9100 Email: lynn@casaforchildrenmc.org for more information.
By Jennifer Peacock TOMS RIVER – The carbon monoxide detector isn’t blaring from a malfunction. Ocean County Health Department officials are urging residents to take those alarms seriously. It could save a life. When a CO alarm sounds off, leave the home immediately and call for help. “It’s called the silent killer because carbon monoxide is a gas that gives no warning - you can’t see it, taste it or smell it. Never gamble with your family’s health and safety by assuming it just may be the batteries or some other unknown reason that triggered the device,” Ocean County Freeholder Gerry P. Little, liaison to the Ocean County Board of Health said. Heating and cooking appliances, tools, vehicles, and other household devices can cause carbon monoxide poisoning, leading to more than 400 deaths each year in the United States. Residents should have CO detectors on every level in their homes and near every sleeping area. Batteries should be replaced twice a year for daylights savings. Suspected malfunctioning batteries should be replaced immediately. “During cold and inf luenza season, symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning can easily be confused with symptoms of viral illness like the common cold or f lu. If symptoms come on shortly after
turning on a device in a certain room and go away after leaving the area or more than one person gets sick at the same time, then these are clues to help identify CO poisoning,” Daniel Regenye, OCHD Public Health Coordinator, said. Prevention is also key. Keep all heating and dryer vents clear of snow, leaves and other debris. Keep open f lues when using a fireplace. Have chimneys inspected for blockage. Don’t use the stove to heat the home/ apartment. Generators are for outdoor use only. Keep them at least 20 feet from buildings, doors and windows. Keep generators, pressure washers, grills, camp stoves, or other gasoline, propane, natural gas or charcoal-burning devices out of the house (including a basement, garage, carport, camper, boat cabin, or tent) and away from open windows and doors. Do not idle vehicles in a closed garage. “If someone is unresponsive or unconscious and you suspect them being exposed to CO poisoning, get them out of the house and call 9-1-1 without delay. Trying to open windows is only a waste of time and will only cause you to breathe in more of the dangerous fumes. However, it’s ok to leave the door open after you exit so fresh air can seep in,” Regenye said. For more information on CO poisoning, visit the poison center at njpies.org.

Animal:
Continued From Page 1 eron, president and founder. They have an Amazon wish list that is pinned to the top of their Facebook page. They are also looking for volunteers and foster families. There was one situation recently where a hurt animal was helped by this organization. A feral cat, who might be a senior, was found on the side of Route 571, struck by a car. Fortunately, it was spotted by a volunteer for the organization. She thought she was dead until she saw movement. The cat was brought to a vet, where she was given pain medication, anti-biotics, and an x-ray that revealed her back was broken. Doctors told her the humane thing would be to put her down. “I wasn’t ready,” Cameron said. “If I put her down, I can’t reverse that.” The cat was eating, drinking, and grooming herself. It didn’t look like a cat that had given up. The cat wasn’t ready to go, either. Now, the cat is named Phoenix, and she lives at the sanctuary. She probably will spend the rest of her years here, since her medical care is more than what most people are able to do (which includes acupuncture). She was fitted for a harness that has wheels on it, and she pulls herself along with her front paws. She has grown accustomed to the shelter life, as opposed to being a stray, and has become affectionate. “Every day she just keeps getting stronger and stronger,” she said. At the Jersey Shore Animal Center in
Brick, they are always in need of cat food, blankets, towels, sheets, and cleaning products, said Jaime Dunning, project director. Donations can be dropped off seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., although the adoption center is only open from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesdays through Sundays. Volunteers have to be 16 or older, and have to apply, she said. Monetary donations can be given through the site: jerseyshoreanimalcenter.org. The Toms River Animal Shelter is also looking for cat and kitten food, and particularly kitten formula. They are asking for KMR ready-made cans, powder, and Miracle Nipples, as well as experienced bottle feeders, 18 and older. Serving locations in both Ocean and Monmouth Counties is Rescue Ridge Adoption. Rescue Ridge is always looking for volunteers to walk the dogs, socialize with the dogs and cats, as well as transport animals to adoption events and/or veterinary appointments. “We can use people to help us at events, especially strong people who can help carry tents. We need people who can man the tables we need people who can talk to the public about Rescue Ridge,” stated Joan Parmese, Director of Operations at Rescue Ridge A volunteer application can be found at rescueridge.com. You must be 19 or older to volunteer. If volunteering isn’t your thing, there are many other ways to help out. You can simply donate at rescueridge.com, or you
can partake in their brick campaign. For $25, you can “honor your pet, a friend’s pet or even just a friend.” If you wish to donate more than just money, you can visit Rescue Ridge’s site at rescueridge.com/about to view their Amazon wish list. “If it is toys, we don’t normally take rope toys or anything too little since we deal mostly with larger animals. We do not accept open bags of food just for safety reasons and we like to keep our animals on a consistent diet,” stated Parmese. “Treats should only be made in America and probably should not be treated with irradiation” If you are out and about, you can text 732-546-8805 to see what is needed at that time. In southern Ocean County you will find the Ocean County Animal Shelter’s Manahawkin location as well as their partner organization, the Friends of the Southern Ocean County Animal Shelter (FOSOCAS). The organization is always looking for volunteers that can get the dogs out for a bit of exercise. “(Dog walker) orientations are held at the shelter on the first Saturday and the third Sunday of each month. Must be 21 years of age and have enough strength and balance to get the dogs in/out of their kennels and walk for extended period of time,” stated the Friends’ website. To become a dog walker, email dogwalkers@fosocas.org. FOSOCAS also needs individuals who
are willing to foster cats or dogs, be “bottle babies” who bottle feed the very young kittens, or volunteer at their adoption centers. More information on volunteer opportunities can be found at fosocas.org/ programs. And of course, you can always provide a monetary donation online at fosocas.org/ product/donation/ or in one of the FOSOCAS’ coin boxes. “The donations we receive are used to purchase shelter equipment and provide supplementary medical/veterinary care to ensure high standards for the care and housing of pets,” stated their site. Coin boxes can be found all over various locations in southern Ocean County. Make a difference with your spare change! In addition to the traditional methods of donating time or money, Ocean County SPCA is taking advantage of the online shopping world to raise funds for their Save A Rescue animal charity. You can donate 0.5 percent of your online purchase to Save A Rescue when shopping on Amazon Smile by choosing them as your designated charity. Lastly, the Associated Humane Societies of New Jersey has locations in Forked River in Ocean County and Tinton Falls in Monmouth County. On their website, you can find a wish list full of items needed at all their shelter locations. The list includes dog and cat food, kitten and puppy food, nursing bottles, towels, wash cloths, toys, blankets, sheets, litter, collars, harnesses, leashes, paper towels, (Animal- See Page 18)

Defense Spending Bill Could Benefit Local Base, Company From The Desk Of
Congressman
Chris Smith WASHINGTON, D.C. – Approximately $4 million in funding for military intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance programs was included in Defense appropriations legislation that passed out of committee, announced Rep. Chris Smith (R-4th) who championed the programs and emphasized the Joint Base’s strategic
location for these missions. “The Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) and Aerostat Operations funded in this legislation will greatly support our combat readiness and strategic capabilities worldwide,” Smith said. “They are safer and more cost-effective means of surveillance - a worthy investment for our Armed Forces. The program
must and will be competitively bid, however it is encouraging to note that Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst already possesses the critical infrastructure and level of expertise to receive the experimentation and demonstration missions for these programs, and our team of experts are extraordinarily suited for the job.” Smith wrote both the Chairman and Ranking Member of the House Defense Subcommittee in April, asking for increased investment in UAS and Aerostat Collaborative Operations. “Through a greater investment in these programs, we will ultimately
propel our warfighters into the future and advance readiness,” Smith wrote. “UAS’ low cost and ability to travel over greater distances surveilling larger areas and communicating intelligence in real-time, ultimately provides commanders improved battlefield situational awareness and time to coordinate and plan,” the letter stated. Smith stressed that Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst “would be an ideal location for proof of concept experimentation/demonstration due to its easily accessible location, the availability of air space, and frequency spectrum.”
Smith also announced that Clayton Associates of Lakewood, has received a maximum $20 million contract from the Department of Defense for storage equipment. “I am pleased to announce that Clayton Associates, Inc. of Lakewood has been awarded a maximum-$20 million contract for its Vacu-Tote Storage boxes, an exciting development for a business headquartered right here in the Fourth District,” said Smith. “Clayton has already supplied the U.S. troops deployed and stationed around the world, and it will once again be outfitting U.S. troops with
this new contract,” Smith said. “Its Vacu-Tote Storage boxes are durable, versatile, rust-proof, and impermeable to most chemicals, gas, and oil, and will be utilized for many purposes including securing and transporting valuable military tools and gear for U.S. troops. They last for years, and best of all, they are manufactured in the U.S. and Clayton is headquartered right here in New Jersey.” The contract, with the U.S. Army as the primary customer, is a maximum $20 million one-year base Defense contract with four one-year option periods.
“New Jersey Economic Development Day” Signed Into Law Capitol Comments Senator Robert W. Singer 30th Legislative District, Serving Howell
TR ENTON - Senator Robert Singer’s resolution to name the second Monday of May as “New Jersey Economic Development
Day” was signed into law. “The designation of a statewide ‘Economic Development Day’ honors and inspires our youth to create,
build, and dream of a better New Jersey,” Senator Singer (R-30) said. “The Garden State is blessed with a well-educated workforce, an ideal location, easy-toaccess public transportation, and the best schools in the nation. That is why our economy will continue to grow and thrive.” Sen. Singer’s joint resolution, SJR-72, aims to encourage and promote
New Jersey state and local econom ic development programs. The resolution requests that the Governor annually call upon elected officials, business owners, and the citizens of New Jersey to discuss job creation, fiscal resiliency, and how to best enhance business development plans. Duvi Honig, the Founder and Chief Executive Offi-
cer of the Orthodox Jewish Chamber Of Commerce, championed the effor t. This group inspired the legislation. “New Jersey is blessed with strong human capital, a prime location, robust transportation infrastructure, and the best public schools in the country,” Singer added. “Still, more can be done to increase New Jersey’s economic
comp et it ive ne ss. I a m proud to work with Duvi Honig and the Orthodox Jewish Chamber Of Commerce to help enhance New Jersey’s business development efforts. Boosting business and economic growth through ‘New Jersey Economic Development Day’ will show the world that the Garden State is open and ready for business.”
New Jersey Sues Family That Created OxyContin TRENTON – Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal announced that the State has filed a lawsuit against eight members of Purdue Pharma’s founding Sackler family, alleging that their greed-driven opioid marketing and sales strategy fomented the opioid crisis that continues to claim lives in New Jersey and across the nation. Filed in Superior Court in Essex County, the State’s complai nt a ccu se s t he Sackler defendants of seeking to become unimaginably rich by deceptively promoting their company’s
opioid pain medications as rarely addictive, seeking to flood the market with Purdue’s opioid pain products by encouraging risky prescribing practices, and by targeting vulnerable new patient populations such as the elderly. Specifically, the complaint alleges that each Sackler defendant named in the lawsuit helped direct and took part in a widespread campaign to deceive doctors and other caregivers with prescribing authority about the risks and benefits of Purdue’s marquee opioid pain relief drug, OxyCon-
tin, as well as other dangerously addictive opioid pain medications made and sold by Purdue and prescription opioids generally. “ T he Sack ler fa m ily built a multi-billion-dollar drug empire based on addiction,” said Attorney General Grewal. “Despite knowing the harms that would result, the Sacklers drove Purdue to pursue deceitful sales campaigns for OxyContin and other highly addictive opioid pai n k illers, campaig ns that were dutifully carried out by a small ar my of the company’s employees.
Our communities are still reeling from the epidemic of addiction and overdose deaths caused by thei r misconduct.” Sackler defendants named in today’s four-count lawsuit include former Purdue CEO and President Dr. Richard S. Sackler, who also served as Purdue’s head of research and development for nearly a decade; Jonathan D. Sackler; Dr. Kathe Sackler; Ilene Sackler Lefcourt; Mortimer D.A. Sackler; Beverly Sackler; Theresa Sackler; and David A. Sackler. Each of the defendants
sat on the Purdue Pharma Board of Di rectors for many years – including some who served for the better part of three decades – before leaving the Board in 2017 or 2018. The State’s complaint lays out a callous plan by the Sacklers to use deception and misinformation to turn the medical community and the public - away from the prevailing view that opioids were so potent and potentially addictive that they should be prescribed sparingly. The misinformation campaign worked, the com-
plai nt asser ts, a nd t he Sacklers managed through intensive marketing and high-pressure sales tactics to replace the old wisdom with a new mindset: that pain was an under-recognized and under treated health care problem, and that opioids should be the first line of treatment for patients suffering from such chronic conditions as moderate back pain, migraine headaches and arthritis.

Southern NJ Coastguardsman Awarded Trophy for Boat Handling, Leadership and Performance

BARNEGAT LIGHT – Twelve-foot seas, howling winds and dark night aren’t the typical conditions boaters head out into, but when Coast Guardsman Eric Thornton’s duty section received a call for help, they suited up and headed 20-miles off of Barnegat Light, New Jersey in a 47-foot Motor Lifeboat to bring a man safely home who was beset by heavy weather in a rowboat on June 4, 2018. Thornton, a Turlock, California native, lead his crew and navigated his boat through 12foot breaking waves to a rowboat designed for a trans-Atlantic journey, that had drifted from New York City to Southern New Jersey in a nor’easter. Once on-scene, Thornton took the mariner aboard and then placed the rowboat in tow. Finally, he conducted a challenging bar transit with waves breaking at 12 to 14 feet. He didn’t know it at the time, but this was just one of the cases and many reasons Petty Officer 2nd Class Eric Thornton was selected for the 2018 Coast Guard Cdr. Ray Evans Outstanding Coxswain Trophy, which distinguishes one coxswain in the Coast Guard for their skill of operating boats, leadership and exceptional performance. “Personally, this means the world to me,” Thornton said of his nomination for trophy recipient. “It’s truly an honor and something I would have never believed that I would obtain during my career, and I’m beyond humbled by it.” Assigned to Coast Guard Station Barnegat Light, Thornton serves as a Boatswain’s Mate and has obtained the esteemed qualification of Coast Guard Surfman – a role with roots that go back to the very foundation of maritime lifesaving services in the United States. In his role he serves in many capacities such as search and rescue, law enforcement, marine resources management, as well as mentor, coach and role model to new and old personnel alike. “Petty Officer Thornton did a flawless job on his search and rescue cases which went into his selection for the Cdr. Ray Evans award,” said Chief Warrant Officer Paul Ashley, commanding officer of Coast Guard Station Barnegat Light. “Two of the three cases that were highlighted in the award submission required him to make judgement calls during times of limited communication, which integrated both his instinctual calmness and sound decision-making as well as training.” Ashley says that since Thornton arrived at the station, he has remained a humble person who has proved himself time and time again in challenging cases and weather scenarios, and whose approachable and friendly personality lends itself to him helping new members to the station. “This was 100% a surprise to me,” Thornton said. “I heard I might have been put in for the trophy, but I was in California when I was told I would be receiving a phone call from Mr. Ashley. When I talked to him he said there was someone who would like to speak to me and it was Admiral Keith Smith, the 5th District
-Photo courtesy USCG commander on the phone congratulating me for being selected. The only words I could muster up was that I was truly honored.” Throughout 2018, Thornton distinguished himself by amassing 305 underway hours during 156 sorties and took part in 23 search and rescue cases resulting in saving 13 lives and $289,345 in property. Chief Petty Officer Robert Shay, Executive Petty Officer of Station Barnegat Light says that Thornton’s performance while driving boats and leading crews through heavy surf, a skill that requires great attention and skill of watching and creating a strategy for navigating waves, is phenomenal. “For me, what stands out about Eric is his calmness,” said Shay. “You really have to be even-keeled under pressure type of person as a Surfman, and he carries that not only in the surf, but his approach to everything in life.” Thornton says that for him the people who helped shape his career were his mentors both in Oregon and in Barnegat Light, as well as the National Motor Lifeboat School, which he said taught him skills that he still uses to this day for surf and heavy weather navigation. “The biggest thing for me is first and foremost, no matter how many good things happen, stay humble and pass your knowledge down to the next person in line,” said Thornton. “That’s what people did for me and it’s what I do for the next people in line.” The Cdr. Ray Evans Outstanding Coxswain Trophy is named after Coast Guard Cdr. Ray Evans, a Signalman 1st Class and recipient of the Navy Cross, who served alongside Douglas Munro, the Coast Guard recipient of the Medal of Honor, in the Battle of Guadalcanal. On Sept. 27, 1942, during the battle, Evans provided covering fire for the 1st Battalion, 7th Marines serving under Col. Lewis B. “Chesty” Puller. Evans remained at his post through the entire operation and with every other member of his crew killed or wounded, he maintained control of the boat with one hand while firing his machine gun with the other until the last boat cleared the beach.

The 45 minute presentation details what opi-
oids are, its origin, the most commonly used opioids, when they are and aren’t safe to take, why they are prescribed, how they are abused, why they are extremely addictive and the symptoms of addiction. The presentation also stressed what heroin is, why it is so dangerous, and the deadly consequences of the drug. More than 700 students attended the presentations. The MCSO continuously educates the public about the dangers and consequences of drugs through its many initiatives and thanks school officials for the interest in providing this informative presentation to students which sends a strong message to stay away from drugs.
Restaurants Invited to Join Grown in Monmouth Restaurant Week FREEHOLD – All restaurants throughout Monmouth County are invited to participate in the first-ever Grown in Monmouth Restaurant Week, which will run from Sunday, July 28 through Sunday, August 4. “We decided to create a restaurant week that will promote both our local businesses and our local farmers at no cost to them,” said Freeholder Director Thomas A. Arnone, liaison to the Division of Economic Development. “The only ‘rule’ is that these restaurants must feature a dish made with ingredients that are grown in Monmouth County. The rest is up to them and we can’t wait to see what creative dishes these chefs come up with.” Restaurants participating in the Grown in Monmouth Restaurant Week must feature at least one dish that is made with ingredients that have been grown in Monmouth County. There are no requirements for pricing or menu selection. The County’s Division of Economic Development is available to assist restaurants with
connecting with local farms. “This restaurant week is really a great opportunity all-around,” said Freeholder Lillian G.

Around The Jersey Shore County Promotes Shared Services to Municipalities FREEHOLD – Freeholder Director Thomas A. Ar none and Shared Services Coordinator Elizabeth Perez are attending municipal council meetings t h roug hout t he su m me r t o d iscu ss potential shared ser vice agreements between Monmouth County and its municipalities. “During my former experience as a mayor, I realized that smaller municipalities do not have the ability to provide the same level of service as the County to their residents,” said Freeholder Director Arnone, liaison to Monmouth County Shared Services. “Through these shared service agreements, the County is able to offer cost relief for our towns and ultimately our taxpayers.” Monmouth County’s Office of Shared Ser vices works with tow ns, school boards, fire districts and authorities to provide 9-1-1 services, public works project assistance, public safety training, records management, commodity resale, cooperative purchasing, infor mation technology, digital record management and more. “In addition to our successful sharing of 9-1-1 and dispatch services, the County’s Department of Public Works and Engineering is certainly the biggest shared
service that the County has to offer,” said Elizabeth Perez, Shared Services Coordinator. “For example, some municipalities may not be able to house heavy equipment used for tree removal projects or road and bridge projects.” Upon submitting a Shared Services request form, Monmouth County department supervisors will visit the location to assess the cost of work. “I am proud to say that Monmouth County has developed one of the most successful shared service programs in the State,” said Freeholder Director Arnone. “Through this initiative, we can help reduce the heavy tax burden on our residents while preserving the high quality of life here in Monmouth County.” Since 2011, Monmouth County’s Shared Services have recorded cost savings and generated revenues with local partners that have passed the $15 million mark. The County’s goal is to provide quality services and commodities to local public partners at a lower cost. For more information about Monmouth County Shared Services, call Elizabeth Perez at 732-431-7460 ext. 2115 or email Elizabeth.Perez@co.monmouth.nj.us.

PROFESSIONAL PROFILE Patients Ask Doctors. Doctors Ask Dr. Hussain By Michael Vandenberg Most of the time, getting treatment is simple. Something hurts or you feel ill, so you go to the doctor. He or she describes what the problem is and then gives you advice or medication. But sometimes answers aren’t so simple. That’s when rheumatologists like Dr. Shahzad Hussain step in. With his innate ability to read between the lines, along with years of education and first-hand experience, Dr. Hussain stands ready to solve the problem and make a difference. The challenging nature of rheumatology is part of what originally appealed to him back in residency. It was a field where he could do more than write prescriptions; he really wanted to get to know his patients, and that comes with the territory when you’re asking them a lot of questions for a diagnosis and treatment. So he did fellowships in both rheumatology and immunology, making his level of knowledge on the former’s top villains (like lupus) among the highest. He happened to finish his residency in San Francisco at the same time and city as Dr. Usmani, who would go on to start his own practice in Lakewood in 1999. Meanwhile, Dr. Hussain had gone home to care for his ailing brother. A few months went by, and Dr. Usmani started to get busy and looked to hire a partner. He heard about Dr. Hussain and gave him a call. “It would be at least another six months before I can come back,” Dr. Hussain warned
him. “No problem, I can wait,” Dr. Usmani said. They eventually joined forces and ran a highly successful practice until early 2018, when they decided to merge with Garden State Medical Center. There were two major benefits to joining GSMC. For one thing, everything is electronic here for easy access: data, records, and charts are all in one place. That means they can spend less time doing paperwork and more time getting you better. Second, they could team up with Dr. Dharam Mann and his gifted team of pain management specialists. The idea of having everything under one roof was huge to Dr. Hussain. Before the merger, “I’d see a patient here, and then I’d say, ‘Okay go get pain management forty miles away.’” Sometimes this would result in a disconnect in treatment strategy, or patients understandably didn’t want to do all that traveling. But now he’ll come to a diagnosis and say, for example, “Dr. Jani is next door. I know him, I’ll talk to him.” All of his notes are right on the database,
along with Dr. Jani’s, so they can easily coordinate the best way to care for you. “I’ll send them and in the next few days they are being seen,” by one of the pain management specialists. No more bouncing around for a month just to go from diag-
nosis to treatment. With the full force of GSMC behind him, Dr. Hussain has pulled off some great feats. “It’s very gratifying in this field when you see patients doing well, because these diseases are hard to treat,” he pointed out. One woman had rashes head to toe and had been to five or six other rheumatologists before Dr. Hussain. She had only recently been diagnosed with skin lupus, but treatment wasn’t working. The key would be to figure out anything besides the lupus that might be triggering the rashes. Sun exposure was an obvious cause, but Dr. Hussain was able to lean heavily on his
allergy training in immunology to dig deeper on things like perfumes and shampoos. After six months of careful consideration and communication with the patient, they were able to get the rashes down to 10 percent of their former surface area. A great improvement, but not perfect. Dr. Hussain found a new infusion that had just been approved by the FDA. The only problem: it cost $20,000 every four weeks. His office fought hard for the patient to get it approved with her insurance, and then they began treatment. In three months, there was not one spot left on her body. “She literally sat and cried and cried and said, ‘Oh my God, I’ve lived with this for so long. I thought I was go-
ing to die with this.’ So now she’s still rash-free. She’s in complete remission,” and only has to take one medication per day. Rashes aren’t the only thing Dr. Hussain treats either. Rheumatology can concern all of the major bodily systems in one way or another. Regardless of what you’re feeling, he is prepared to talk to you and give you a hand. Feel free to schedule an appointment with Dr. Hussain today at 1100 NJ Route 70, Entrance A in Whiting or 2333 Whitehorse Mercerville Road in Hamilton by calling 1-888-376-2661.

Surprise, Surprise… Eggs Reduce Risk Of Stroke
By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
For years, folks have been afraid of eggs, and how they are “bad” for cholesterol and LDL. Long gone are the days where people drank them raw like Sylvester Stallone did in Rocky… and no I don’t recommend you do that! Rocky did that to build muscle mass, but so you know, the practice of eating raw eggs is about 120 years old. Today, some body builders use the liquid egg whites, to avoid salmonella contamination. Today’s focus is on eggs and whether or not they raise risk of heart disease or stroke. The rationale is that eggs are high in cholesterol, and hypercholesterolemia increases stroke. So let’s explore that today, and see what the research claims. One hard-boiled egg contains 187 milligrams (mg) of cholesterol. One scrambled eggs has about 169 mg natural cholesterol. Data accumulated from epidemiological studies suggests an inverse relationship… meaning the more eggs you eat the higher your risk for stroke. However, the evidence of the relationship is quite limited, and has not deterred me from eating them. Millions of people have however, are running scared from the egg. There is brand new research out, and it was just published in the May 16, 2019 issue of The Journal of the American College of Nutrition. The aim of the study was to determine the association of eggs (and cholesterol intake) with risk of stroke. It was conducted in 1,950 middle-aged men from Finland. Neither
egg consumption, nor cholesterol intake was associated with stroke incidence. The gene that inf luences cholesterol metabolism (ApoE4) was accounted for. The lack of an association between eggs and stroke is great news for egg lovers! There was a Meta-analysis published in 2016, in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition. Scientists poured through seven different studies and compiled the statistics. Their findings while not a surprise to me, actually came as a shock to others. Let me just quote right out of the STUDY so you can interpret it as you wish: Based on the results of this meta-analysis, consumption of up to one egg daily may contribute to a decreased risk of total stroke, and daily egg intake does not appear to be associated with risk of CHD. In other words, the data reveals that eggs might lower risk of stroke, not raise them like everyone is telling you! I’m 54 at the time of this writing and so I can hear Sergeant Gomer Pyle in my head saying “Surprise, surprise!” What’s so important here, and one of the messages that I am trying to give you is to stop worrying so much about food. I think there is so much mental chatter going on in the heads of Americans. Eat this, and not that, this here is bad for you, bread might kill you, there’s caffeine in this, gluten in that, lactose in this and sugar in that! Just enjoy real food, eat wisely, avoid all chemicals and refined foods… and unless you are vegan, go ahead and eat the eggs!

Continued From Page 7 medications including Butrans and Hysingla ER. However, the company’s most popular opioid pain medication by far has been OxyContin. Starting with the market debut of OxyContin in 1996, Purdue generated overall sales estimated at more than $35 billion. The company’s current annual revenues are estimated at approximately $3 billion, mostly from the sale of OxyContin. The lawsuit alleges that, under the Sackler defendants’ direction, Purdue aggressively and deceptively marketed its opioid drugs – particularly OxyContin – for the long-term treatment of chronic pain.
The suit also alleges that Purdue failed to disclose it had no studies to support most of its promotional claims – for example, that opioids were not very addictive, that addiction risks were easily managed, opioids continued to be effective when used for treatment periods lasting many months and years, and that long-term opioid usage improved patients’ daily function and quality of life. The State’s lawsuit includes three counts of violating the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act and one count of violating the State’s False Claims Act. The complaint seeks monetary damages for false claims, maximum statutory penalties under the Consumer Fraud Act and the False Claims Act, disgorgement of any ill-gotten gains, and other relief as
contribution for the costly solutions – including addiction treatment and prescriber education – required to abate the opioid crisis in New Jersey. According to the complaint, the State’s largest Medicaid managed care organization paid $109 million for opioids – much of it based on false claims caused by the defendants’ misconduct – through the Medicaid program between 2008 and 2017. The State paid another $6 million under its Workers’ Compensation Program during the same time span, and approximately $136 million under its State Employee and Retiree Health Plans between 2012 and 2017. The bulk of those expenditures were for Purdue opioids, the complaint alleges.

Understanding Shoulder Replacement Surgery By: Kimberly Salvato, DPT
TOTAL SHOULDER REPLACEMENT (TSA):
The total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) was first performed in the United States in the 1950’s. Now, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality states 53,000 people in the U.S. have shoulders replaced each year. The goal is to decrease pain, while increasing mobility, strength, and function.
fractures. The most common cause is advanced osteoarthritis meaning the joint’s smooth cartilage lining has deteriorated. Surgery is considered when conservative treatments (rehabilitation, injection, medication) have failed. IS THIS RIGHT FOR YOU?
This decision should be made between you, your family, and your orthopedic surgeon. If conservative treatment did not relieve symptoms, then TSA can be a great option to help increase your independence, and regain your quality of life. TSA: TOTAL V. REVERSE
SHOULDER ANATOMY
The shoulder is composed of three bones: the humerus (upper arm), scapula (shoulder blade), and clavicle (collar bone). Like a ball and socket joint, the head of the humerus (the ball) fits into the socket of the scapula (glenoid cavity). Next is the rotator cuff, made up of four muscles which hold the head of the humerus into the glenoid cavity. CAUSES:
Causes for a TSA include rheumatoid arthritis, disease of the rotator cuff, osteonecrosis, and humeral head
AFTER SURGERY
Post-operative Physical therapy has a large success rate though results can vary. Restricted use of their hand, and wrist begins soon after, and their elbow and shoulder in approximately six weeks. Unrestricted use may begin as early as eight weeks. It is important to realize pain typically lasts until 6-12 months. After one year, 95% of patients enjoy pain-free function!

Kimberly received extensive training treating patients post-stroke in an acute setting and patient postsurgical in an outpatient orthopedic setting. Kimberly then spent four months on her last affiliation in orthopedics and sports medicine, where she studied under renowned sports physical therapists, athletic trainers, and strength and conditions specialists. Kimberly learned valuable knowledge working with high school and college athletes, predominately with ACL and meniscal injuries.

R.C. Shea & Assoc.
Inside The Law CALL TO ACTION! TIME IS RUNNING OUT. S-2432/A-5371 Permits recovery of uncompensated medical expenses in civil action that result from motor vehicle accidents This Bill (S-2432/A-5371) is now Governor Murphy’s desk for his consideration. We urge you to call Governor Murphy NOW and tell him to sign this Bill. (609) 292-6000. The New Jersey Association for Justice and R.C. Shea & Associates strongly support S-2432/A-5371, which will allow victims of motor vehicle accidents to seek payment for medical expenses that may exceed insurance coverage they have under Personal Injury Protection coverage (PIP). This bill is needed in light of the New Jersey Supreme Court decision in Haines v. Taft, which limits payments for medical care to the insured’s PIP limits with no regard to the actual extent of the injuries sustained and the cost of treatment and care. In many cases, and especially for those lower-income individuals who followed the law and shopped for an insurance policy they could afford, that PIP limit is as little as $15,000. This decision discriminates against those in New Jersey who do not have the financial resources to buy high levels

of insurance or PIP coverage. As Justice Barry T. Albin said in his dissenting opinion in the case, the decision “will have a catastrophic impact on the right of low-income automobile accident victims to recover their medical costs from the wrongdoers who cause their injuries. The decision leaves innocent automobile accident victims without the legal right to sue negligent and reckless drivers for recovery of their unpaid medical bills – medical bills that will bankrupt some and financially crush others.” The majority decision in Haines invited the Legislature to step in and correct this unjust situation and S-2432/A-5371 does precisely that. This bill would clarify that the Legislative intent is that a victim injured in an auto accident should not be left with crushing medical bills and no legal recourse against the tortfeasor. The public policy of the state of New Jersey simply cannot be that consumers risk potential bankruptcy or financially devastating medical bills in exchange for lower premiums. Injured auto accident victims should not be left to pay for the medical care necessitated by the negligent actions of those who have injured them. TAKE ACTION NOW!

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of june 8 - june 14 By Jeraldine Saunders
ARIES (March 21-April 19): A pop in your popularity might take you by surprise. Your activities are likely to receive widespread notice, so be sure to do your very best. Don’t ignore any opportunities that appear in the upcoming week. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Romance, passion and affection could seem to be a major motivating force in your life for the next several days. If you share your original ideas in the week ahead you could earn some applause for your brilliance. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): It might take longer than usual to learn a new technique but when you do, you will understand it thoroughly. In the upcoming week your attention may shift from bouncing ideas around to learning to know your partner or mate better. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Being sharp is great, but you must also use the right tool in the right way. You can’t snip roses with an axe or chop wood with clippers. In the week ahead use your skills appropriately for the best results. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You can relax without pressure and reassess what constitutes true happiness. Or you can put on your thinking cap and start something worthwhile while the vision is fresh. Make wise decisions in the week ahead. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You may feel too awkward to say what you mean, but later this week you should have a comfortable opportunity to voice your opinions clearly and completely. Don’t feel unloved if you are briefly put on the sidelines.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): As this week unfolds you may need to push back against the influence of people who challenge you to increase your spending habits. Use the utmost discretion with purchases and temper impulsiveness with good business sense. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You could be spellbound by a new person or interest in the week ahead. Be alert for red flags in case all isn’t what it first seems to be. Focus on making wise and informed financial decisions with no strings attached. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In the week ahead, you may focus on the things that spark joy. You won’t mind working for a living since you can find ways to make your job rewarding on many levels. Gather inventive ideas. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You are aware that some people get a thrill from gaming the system. In the week ahead you will be able to maintain boundaries and elude any players who want to use you to fulfill their own agendas. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Someone else may receive the recognition while you do all the work. It might be wise to find a good opening in the upcoming week to mention your accomplishments and talents so that you get your fair share. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Be patient if it takes more time to reach a solution or a conclusion. Some people are too polite or not willing to be straightforward so you may need to act on faith. In the upcoming week you must trust your intuitions.

Wolfgang Puck’s Kitchen Easy-To-Make Chutney IsThe Perfect Lip-Smacking StandbyTo Make Any Grilled FoodsTaste Extra Special By Wolfgang Puck SPICY MIXED FRUIT CHUTNEY Makes about 4 cups (1 L) 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil 1/2 medium red bell pepper, cored, seeded, and cut into 1/8-inch (3-mm) dice 1 jalapeno chile, cored, seeded, and cut into 1/8 inch (3-mm) dice 1 large red onion, cut into 1/8-inch (3-mm) dice 1/4 cup (60 mL) plus 2 teaspoons packed brown sugar 1 tablespoon finely diced, 1/8 inch (3 mm), fresh ginger 1 large garlic clove, cut into 1/8-inch (3 mm) dice 1/2 cup (125 mL) dried currants 1/4 teaspoon mustard powder 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt 3/4 cup (185 ml) Champagne vinegar 1 pound (500 g) apples (about 2 medium), peeled, cored, and cut into 1/8-inch (3-mm) dice 1 pound (500 g) mangos (about 2 medium to large), peeled, fruit sliced from the pit and cut into 1/8-inch (3-mm) dice; or peeled and diced nectarines, peaches, or other stone fruit in season
1/2 pound (250 g) pears (about 1 large pear), peeled, cored, and cut into 1/8-inch dice In a large stainless-steel or enamel saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Stir in the red pepper, jalapeno, onion, 2 teaspoons of the brown sugar, the ginger and the garlic. Saute, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the currants, remaining brown sugar, mustard, cayenne, turmeric, salt and vinegar. Continue cooking for 10 minutes longer, stirring occasionally. Stir in the apples and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the mangos or stone fruit and the pear. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until all the fruit is tender, 5 to 7 minutes longer. Scoop up a small spoonful of the chutney mixture and taste it. If necessary, stir in a little more salt or sugar, the smallest pinches of any of the other spices, or a splash more of vinegar to adjust the balance of flavors to your liking. Remove the pan from the stove, and leave the chutney to cool to room temperature. Then transfer it to one or two nonreactive containers, cover and refrigerate until needed. Serve with grilled or roasted meat, poultry or seafood. The chutney will keep in the refrigerator for up to three weeks.

Dear Joel
By Joel Markel
A Hairy Recommendation Dear Joel, My friend got a new hairstyle and I think it’s awful. It’s the kind of cut you’d see on a teen pop star, complete with colored stripes. She thinks it looks great and is raving about her stylist, but I’d like to persuade her to try my stylist who could give her a look that’s more age appropriate. How do I go about getting her to try my stylist? Do you think I should try a gift card to my salon? Judy, Brick Dear Hairy, You made me chuckle. Just last night I was looking at some old magazines, remarking at how funny some of the hairdos were. And that’s just not the ladies either. I remember when all the men were getting curly perms. Your friend’s new do is a touchy topic, because she is so
enamored with her new look, but I think your idea is a good one. You and you friend might plan a day of beauty together with your stylist. Just let your stylist play with hair and ask if she’s been thinking about changing it. You’ll see if she’s willing to try a new look. I asked my wife about this one and the always wise Mrs. reminded me that hairstyles change all the time. Maybe if you give it a couple months, she might be over looking like the latest pop princess and more like the lady of the house. Write to joel@preferredcares.com. His radio show, “Preferred Company” airs on Monday through Friday from 8 to 10 a.m. on preferredradio. com and 1160 & 1310 WOBM-AM
