Sounds Of Summer Concert Schedule Underway
By Chris Lundy BERKELEY – Now in its 20th year, the Sounds of Summer, a free concert series put on by Berkeley Township, kicked off the season on June 26. Most concerts, unless noted, are held at Veterans Park on Veterans Boulevard. All concerts are free to the public, with free parking. It’s a good idea to bring your own chairs and blankets.
Refreshment vendors will be at the park. These booths are run by local civic organizations that use these concerts as fundraising opportunities. The Mayor’s School Supply Drive will also be taking place during the concerts. The Recreation Department booth will be collecting new school supplies and monetary donations to by supplies for the children in town. Donors will receive raffle tickets for one of four $25 Visa (Concert - See Page 4)

By Judy Smestad-Nunn SEASIDE HEIGHTS – How can you be sure that the odds aren’t stacked against you when you play boardwalk games, or that you are getting the full pound of salt water taffy that you paid for? State Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal came to the Seaside Heights boardwalk on Friday afternoon, June 21, to
kick off an initiative to inspire consumer confidence that they won’t be scammed while playing games of chance, or cheated while buying goods on the boardwalk this summer. “ O p e r a t io n S a fe Summer” is led by the State Division of Consumer Affairs (DCA), whose acting director Paul R. Rodriguez accompanied Grewal. (Games - See Page 4)

Games:
that when they go to buy something at one of these stores the signage is accurate, the prices are clearly displayed,” Grewal said. “If they buy a pound of candy, they’re getting a pound of candy. If they miss a free-throw it’s not because there’s too much air in the basketball, but it’s because they can’t hit a free-throw,” he said. Heading over to a dart game, Grewal said DCA inspectors first make sure that the entity is licensed with the DCA, which must be renewed every year. Then the inspector checks to see if the gaming booth has their prices and rules posted. The off icials checked the distance between the player and a basketball hoop, measured the throwing distance at Bottle Bust, and made sure a claw could
pick up everything in the play field and that items displayed were in the case. Afterward, inspectors checked the calibration of scales used to weigh candy and fudge in one of the sweet shops on the boardwalk. Each scale must have a state seal. Under the A musement Games Licensing Law, enacted in 1959, the state began licensing and inspecting amusement games under the auspices of the NJ Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC), which was transferred to the DCA in 1993. Asked if inspectors frequently found violations, Rodriguez said that when the games were regulated by the ABC there were many. “It’s ra re to catch violators now,
because the first violation - and each vendor could have multiple games and multiple violations - is $250,” he said. “We are very clear about what we are looking for, so now they are mostly compliant.” According to Karl Reidel, executive officer at LGCCC, the shore is comprised of 16 municipalities where licenses have been issued at 266 locations. Police Chief Boyd welcomed the attorney general, and thanked him for coming to Seaside Heights. “You can never have enough oversight. We work hand-in-hand with the attorney general to make sure the public gets a fair shake,” he said. “We could use all the help we can get.”

Senior Communities Should Be Free Of Trenton’s Influence CAPITOL COMMENTS 9th Legislative District Senator Christopher J. Connors • Assemblyman Brian E. Rumpf • Assemblywoman DiAnne C. Gove
TRENTON - As legislators with a longstanding track record of supporting the rights of age-restricted community residents, Senator Chris Connors, Assemblyman Brian Rumpf and Assemblywoman DiAnne Gove (all R-9th) said that they will continue to oppose legislation (S-2425) that would consolidate laws concerning common interest communities, including the
taxation of common property, applicability of local ordinances, the effects of eminent domain, and other statutes. Senator Connors voted against the legislation in committee and on the floor of the Senate when S-2425 was presented on the Senate floor for a full chamber vote on June 10 of this year. The members of the 9th District delegation empha-
sized that this legislation is especially alarming, because it would allow Trenton to interfere in the operations of age-restricted communities in cases in which it deems that a community’s bylaws do not speak to a specific issue. This means that Trenton, in turn, would act as the community’s de facto governing body. The delegation, which represents a number of age-restricted communities, issued the following statement in opposition to S-2425: “Residents of age-restricted communities value their autonomy. They do not want nor need Trenton interfering with their affairs. “At first glance, this bill

seems innocuous. But after careful consideration, our delegation will oppose this bill, because of provisions in the legislation that could leave the door open for Trenton to impose its will on our seniors, by filling in what it sees as gaps in a community’s bylaws. “We don’t question the intent of the bill’s sponsors or supporters. It’s just that there’s too much history of Tren-
ton trying to over-regulate age-restricted communities, when there is no pressing need or public support to do so. “The fact of the matter is age-restricted communities are better run than the state government is, largely because local residents - not bureaucrats - are in charge. “New Jersey is grappling with a number of serious problems that are victim-

izing taxpayers statewide. We shouldn’t be spending limited time and resources on specifying what residents of age-restricted communities can and cannot do.” S-2425 was passed by the full Senate on June 10, 2019 and referred to the Assembly. Assemblyman Rumpf and Assemblywoman Gove will vote ‘NO’ should S-2425 be presented on the Assembly floor for a full chamber vote.

100th Annual VFW Department Of New Jersey Convention
BERKELEY – At the 100th Annual VFW Department of New Jersey convention, where for the first time a woman veteran, Barbara Kim-Hagemann was elected Department Commander, the following VFW members assumed their leadership positions at VFW Post 9503: • Commander- Bill Dondero • Sr. Vice Commander- Michael Passeri, PPC, PDC • Jr. Vice Commander- Jim Ramnytz • Quartermaster- David Ballentine, ASQM • Chaplain/Service Officer- Phillip Zimmerman • Adjutant- David Rosenak • Judge Advocate- Michael Passeri, PPC, PDC Officer of the Day- Brian Murray • 1 year Trustee- Fritz Barger, PPC • 2 year Trustee- Fritz Meuller,PPC, PDC • 3 year Trustee- Larry Kelly, PPC, PDC • Canteen Manager- Rich Kirk We encourage all eligible veterans to join our post. Meetings are on the first and third Fridays of the month at 7 pm. Do not assume you are not eligible. Contact the post to check your eligibility. As yesterday’s defenders of freedom, we want to welcome today’s military service members into our ranks to become part of our elite group. Our common bond is the battlefield, whether it is service in the Persian Gulf, Korea, Kosovo, the war on terrorism or peace-keeping expeditionary campaigns. Your courage and sacrifice have made a difference in preserving and de-
fending world peace. The VFW’s voice had been instrumental in establishing the Veterans Administration, creating a GI bill for the 20th century, the development of the national cemetery system and the fight for compensation for Vietnam vets exposed to Agent Orange and for veterans diagnosed with Gulf War Syndrome. In 2008, VFW won a long-fought victory with the passing of a GI Bill for the 21st Century, giving expanded educational benefits to America’s active-duty service members, and members of the Guard and Reserves, fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. The VFW also has fought for improving VA medical centers services for women veterans. Besides helping fund the creation of the Vietnam, Korean War, World War II and Women in Military Service memorials, the VFW in 2005 became the first veterans’ organization to contribute to building the new Disabled Veterans for Life Memorial, which opened in November 2010. Annually, the nearly 2 million members of the VFW and its Auxiliaries contribute more than 8.6 million hours of volunteerism in the community. From providing over $3 million in college scholarships and savings bonds to students every year, to encouraging elevation of the Department of Veterans Affairs to the president’s cabinet, the VFW is there. No one does more for veterans than the VFW…No one.

PINE BEACH – In January of 2018, Pine Beach Police Department embarked on the mission to attain Accreditation status with the New Jersey State Chiefs of Police Association. Accreditation results in greater accountability within the agency, reduced risk and liability exposure, stronger defense against civil lawsuits, increased community advocacy, and more confidence in the agency’s ability to operate efficiently and respond to community needs. On June 13, 2019 members of the Pine Beach Police Department went before the New Jersey State Chiefs of Police Association Accreditation Commission. We are pleased to announce your Police Department received Unanimous Votes and successfully attained Accreditation Status with the New Jersey State Chiefs of Police Association. “Thanks to The Rodgers Group (Accreditation Consultants), for assisting us in this achievement. You are all consummate professionals and are a valuable asset to all Law Enforcement Agencies. Your high standard
for excellence made this accomplishment possible and we could have not done it without you. I would like to commend all the Officers of Pine Beach Police Department for their Hard Work, Dedication and Commitment to the safety of the Community. This is a monumental moment in the history of the Police Department and you all should be proud of this achievement. I would also like to thank Mayor Cuneo and the Pine Beach Council for their continued support of the Police Department. By operating under the “Best Practices” in law Enforcement they have ensured Public Safety is paramount for all the residents of Pine Beach. Lastly, I would like to thank the community of Pine Beach for your continued support. The communication between the Community and Officers is vital for us to be successful as a whole and we will continue to build on our relationship in the future to ensure your needs are fulfilled,” stated Chief Petrecca.

EYE INJURY PREVENTION AT HOME
While most people assume that eye injuries occur at work in factories and at construction sites, nearly half of all eye injuries occur at home. The commission of home repairs, yard work, cleaning, and cooking comprise more than 40% of eye injuries at home, while more than a third of injuries in the home occur in the kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, or living or family room. In excess of 40% of yearly eye injuries are related to sports or recreational activities. The most concerning statistic of all is that more than three-quarters (78%) of people were not wearing eyewear at the time of injury. Clearly, the majority of home-related eye injuries can be prevented with the use of protective eyewear. Safety eyewear must conform to a higher standard of impact resistance than regular eyewear. This higher standard applies to both the lenses and the frames of safety glasses and goggles. Safety glasses may have prescription lenses or non-prescription lenses. SUSSKIND & ALMALLAH EYE ASSOCIATES, P.A. offers attentive, thorough eye exams in a comfortable, professional environment. If you need eye care or just want a simple eye exam, please call 732-349-5622.

Dr. Isidore Kirsh Ph.D., F.A.A.A.
Receiver-In-The-Canal (RIC) Hearing Instruments: Nine Reasons Slim Is In
Over the past five years, most major hearing aid manufacturers have created an entirely new class of svelte hearing aids called “receiver-in-the-canal” (RIC) products. These instruments are virtually unnoticeable when worn. They are unique because of a very smart engineering design with remarkable results: The separation of the receiver from the rest of the hearing aid. The ultra-slim computer processor is worn hidden in the hairline just behind the ear. The receiver rests in the ear canal secured by a vented, silicone tip. A hair-thin transmission wire (not a tube) connects the two. The popularity of RIC instruments have spread quickly by word of mouth among baby boomers who are in turn telling their friends. In general, there are nine reasons why slim is in: more efficient, size and technology, comfort, natural sound, reduced feedback, repair ability, re-program ability, cosmetics and fit–and–go. RIC products are more efficient because their receiver is already near your ear drum and because of this, less power is needed. In terms of size and technology, RIC
products allow for better sound processing utilizing adaptive directional microphones, noise reduction and feedback cancellation. Some models even offer FM or Bluetooth compatibility for listening to TV wirelessly and remote control so that the wearer can discreetly adjust the volume or switch the listening program. In terms of comfort, the fit and feel of a RIC product allows most patients to forget that they are even wearing them. These instruments are designed not to plug up your ear and to provide a more natural sound quality with speech and your own voice. Because there is a separation between the microphone and the receiver, feedback is virtually eliminated. Should the receiver need repair, this modular component can be quickly replaced by your audiologist, usually while you wait. That means less time without wearing your hearing instrument. RIC instruments are flexible and adapt to changes in hearing loss, thus, they can be reprogrammed. Cosmetically, RICs are slim, light and beautiful. RIC instruments can usually be selected, fit, programmed and worn home the same day (fit and go) for instant hearing improvement.

H ere ’ s T o Y our H ealth Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
Metformin’s Pros and Cons By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. Introduced in 1995 when I was just 30 years old, metformin quickly gained traction in the medical arena as the drug of choice to use in diabetes. Prior to its introduction in the United States, it had been used in France since 1957. It is sold globally by various different brand names, and in combination with other glucose-lowering agents. Metformin has some interesting uses, as well as cautions. There are an estimated 100 million people with diabetes in our country. For natural remedies, please refer to my book, Diabetes Without Drugs, which is sold on Amazon and book stores nationwide. Today, I’d like to share the pros and cons of the most popular diabetic medication in the world: Cons 1. Causes Vitamin B12 Deficiency. It is a strong drug mugger of vitamin B12, and the longer you take it, the more profound the deficiency. If you take metformin, the obvious solution is to supplement with B12 and a high-quality probiotic since probiotics happen to manufacture B12. Methylcobalamin is my suggestion, because it’s methylated and therefore, body-ready. It’s available everywhere nowadays. FYI, hair loss, poor memory recall, confusion, anemia and neuropathy are signs of B12 deficiency. 2. Questionable Prostate Benefits. The results from a brand new study on prostate cancer were disappointing. It was expected that there would be some add-on benefits, but the results showed no significant clinical benefits when metformin was given along with chemotherapy. Previous results have suggested that metformin could be useful in this regard.
3. Uncomfortable Side Effects. Metformin has side effects such as occasional heartburn, indigestion, bloating and gas, weight loss, diarrhea/constipation, weird taste in the mouth and pancreatitis. 4. May Harm Kidneys. Severe lactic acidosis is a rare but very dangerous complication of metformin, and drugs in the same category. It occurs particularly in people with kidney compromise and/or failure. Pros 1. Raises Serotonin. New research published in the June 3rd edition of The Journal of Neuroscience has concluded that metformin improves mood and reduces anxiety. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter associated with happiness, self confidence, satiety and social interaction. Deficiencies of serotonin are often exhibited as OCD, depression and anxiety. 2. Helps PCOS. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome which is characterized by weight gain, insulin resistance, cravings and skin discoloration. Metformin isn’t labeled for this disorder, however we know it works. 3. Manages Cholesterol. Metformin may help reduce total cholesterol and low density cholesterol (LDL) as well as blood pressure. Metformin may also reduce triglycerides according to some research. 4. Some Tumors Retreat. Metformin may suppress growth and improve immune function. It works by lowering blood sugar, which then improves cell receptor sensitivity (and number), which in turn controls the amount of blood sugar floating around in the blood stream. This is good because tumors and pathogens (ie fungi, viruses and bacteria) all feed on glucose, so if the sugar gets pushed into the cell then there’s less fuel to feed the pathogens and growing cells that went rogue.

OCEAN COUNTY – During this time of year, many animals (rabbits, deer, birds, etc.) are busy raising their young. This is a reminder to leave them be! Mothers prepare a nest for their babies, and, not wanting to draw attention to their young, visit the nest just a few times a day to feed them. Please don’t “rescue” these animals…chances are
they won’t survive if you take them away from their mothers. Ocean County Parks and Recreation cannot accept these young. For information on what to do if you find an animal in need of help, visit State of NJ Wildlife Rehabilitators at state.nj.us/dep/fgw/bornwild. What to do if you find and animal: njawr.com/.

Inside The Law Who is Josh Haines?
Robert C. Shea Esq.
By: Michael J. Deem, Esq. and Robert C. Shea, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates
Josh Haines was injured in a car crash. His medical treatment left him with more than $25,000 in unpaid medical bills. He sued the person who caused the crash for the cost of his medical treatment. In March 2019, the NJ Supreme Court decided his case. The court ruled that car accident victims have to pay their own medical bills, even if they didn’t cause the accident. The Court ruled that ANY person whose auto policy has less than the “standard” medical benefits limit has to pay for their medical treatment up to $250,000. The court’s ruling has a devastating impact on low-income people who cannot afford to buy auto policies with higher coverage limits. If you are involved in an auto accident, you could be stuck with thousands of dollars in medical expenses, leading to credit problems, bankruptcy, or worse. The insurance industry is thrilled about this decision. And don’t think you are safe if you have health insurance. If your private health insurer pays your medical bills and you obtain a recovery for your injuries then there is a
substantial likelihood that you will have to reimburse your health insurer with the monies Michael J. Deem you received from your award or settlement. Too often this reimbursement scheme leaves the victim with nothing. The NJ Assembly and Senate have passed a bill to fix the Haines decision. It is on Gov. Murphy’s desk. All he has to do is sign it. PLEASE HELP. Call Governor Murphy now at 609-292-6000. CALL GOV. MURPHY Tell the representative who answers the telephone: I AM CALLING TO URGE GOVERNOR MURPHY TO SIGN THE BILL TO FIX HAINES http://starledger.nj.newsmemory.com/ ?publink=087cad7f9 www.whoisjoshhaines.com.

Summer Household Hazardous Waste Collection Days Set
OCEAN COU NTY – The summer is a great time to dispose of old paint, pesticides and a host of other household chemicals that may be collecting in closets, garages and basements. The Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders and the Ocean County Department of Solid Waste Management is again scheduling a series of Household Hazardous Waste collection days later this summer. “This is the perfect opportunity to clean out those old products that can pose a threat to the environment and should not be thrown away with everyday trash,” said Freeholder Gary Quinn, liaison to the Department of Solid Waste Management. Waste can be brought to three locations on three separate dates. The program is free, but space is limited and preregistration is strongly suggested. Collection days are set for: • July 13 at the Manchester Department of Public Works Garage, 1360 Route 70, Manchester. Please call 732-506-5047 to register. • August 10 at the Jackson Municipal Building parking lot, 95 West Veterans Highway, Jackson. Register by calling 732-367-0802. • September 7 at the Long Beach Township Department of Public Works, 7910 Long Beach Boulevard. Please call 609978-0913 to register. The drop off locations will be open from 9 am to 3 pm. County residents may bring their waste to the closest or most convenient drop off. Materials accepted at the household hazardous waste collection sites include:
paints, thinners, boat paints, solvents, pool chemicals, pesticides and herbicides, aerosol cans, auto products, toilet and drain cleaners, silver polishes, oven cleaners, photographic chemicals, rug and upholstery cleaners, polishes and bleaches, waste oil and used gasoline. Materials not accepted include oxygen tanks and boat flares. Residents can drop off a maximum of 200 pounds of dry material and 20 gallons of liquid at the County’s household hazardous waste collection sites. No containers over five gallons will be accepted. Waste will be accepted only from county residents and farmers. Businesses and government agencies are not eligible. Program information is also on the county website at www.co.ocean.nj.us/recycle. “I’m proud to say that this is the 30th year that the county has run these collections and over the past 3 decades our residents have helped to safely dispose of more than 15 million pounds of hazardous materials,” said Freeholder Director Virginia E. Haines. Household hazardous waste collection dates earlier this spring saw 232,965 pounds of material collected. Quinn said residents who miss a date should contact their municipal recycling centers and the county’s recycling centers, which allow for year-round drop off of a host of materials including used paint, motor oil and car batteries. “Our residents should check with us or their local recycling center to determine what is accepted year-round, eliminating the need to store potentially hazardous items in their home,” Quinn said.

–Photo courtesy of Nina Colagiovanni By Kimberly Bosco POINT PLEASANT BEACH – A few endangered species are making a home for themselves on the Jersey Shore, with the help of Jenkinson’s Aquarium and the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife and Conserve Wildlife Foundation. In Point Pleasant Beach, just north of Jenkinson’s, a group of Least Terns, Black Skimmers, and American Oystercatchers are staking their claim on a small area of the beach, now monitored by the Fish and Wildlife Foundation. It was discovered back in May that a pair of American Oystercatchers, a species of special concern here in New Jersey, nested on the beach and laid three eggs. The pair later welcomed three chicks to the world. According to Jenkinson’s, the parents and hatchlings are doing well and the chicks should be spreading their wings soon enough. Following the American Oystercatchers, a colony of the endangered species Least Terns started nesting in the same area provided by NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife. A much larger group, more than 80 pairs, of terns has built nests, laid eggs, and is welcoming chicks.
Another endangered species, Black Skimmers, followed suit by nesting in the spot. Officials expect they will soon lay three to six chicken-sized eggs. Black Skimmers are about the size of a crow, and are easily identified by their long black-tipped red bill. They are known to nest near Least Terns as they rely on their aggressive behavior for added protection. The area in which these species reside has been roped off by officials from the Fish and Wildlife Foundation. In an effort to preserve these species and protect their habitat, officials ask beachgoers to: • Stay out of these areas - the birds are easily disturbed by our activities on the beach • Leave dogs at home - dogs are not allowed on the beach here and if unattended could chase and even kill the nesting birds • Give the birds some space - enjoy beach activities away from the fenced in area • Take your trash with you - always a good rule to follow, but especially critical when predator species could be drawn to the area by trash that has been left behind. For more information about these species, visit conservewildlifenj.org and njfishand wildlife.com.

NEW JERSEY – The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Andrew Wheeler, along with Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson, announced new, tighter standards for lead in dust on floors and window sills to protect children from the harmful effects of lead exposure. EPA Region 2 Deputy Regional Administrator Walter Mugdan participated in an event today alongside U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Region 2 Director of Community Planning and Development Vincent Hom and City of Newburgh Mayor Torrance Harvey in Newburgh, New York. “EPA is delivering on our commitment in the Trump Administration’s Federal Lead Action Plan to take important steps to reduce childhood lead exposure,” said EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler. “Today’s final rule is the first time in nearly two decades EPA is issuing a stronger, more protective standard for lead dust in homes and child care facilities across the country.” “The strengthening and finalization of the dust-lead hazard rule is the successful result of federal agencies working together to protect children from a dangerous, preventable health risk,” said Regional Administrator Pete Lopez. “This rule strengthens EPA’s ongoing efforts to ensure children grow up in homes that are free of lead contamination.” “EPA’s updating its standards for lead dust on floors and windowsills in pre-1978 homes and child-occupied facilities is an important advance,” said Secretary Carson. “We will use this new rule in updating the lead safety requirements for the pre-1978 housing we assist.” “As a teacher in Newburgh Schools, I place children’s safety as one of my highest priorities. Lead levels in Newburgh’s children are reducing an entire generation’s ability to be the successful scholars we strive for,” said City of Newburgh Mayor Torrance Harvey. “The City of Newburgh is committed to working with all of our partners to reduce lead levels and bring properties into full compliance.” “Eliminating the dangers of lead-based paint in homes continues to be a priority for Secretary Carson, and a rule that demands a higher standard to protect children and prevent the hazards of lead exposure is a step in the right direction,” said Lynne Patton, HUD Regional Administrator for New York and New Jersey. “Lead poisoning, including lead dust on floors and windowsills, can cause irreparable damage at the most precious stage of life. HUD is honored to join forces with the EPA to ensure that young children are safe from lead poisoning and get a chance to achieve their full potential.” Since the 1970s, the United States has made tremendous progress in lowering children’s blood lead levels. In 2001, EPA set standards for lead in dust for floors and window sills in housing, however since that time, the best available science has evolved to indicate human health effects at lower blood lead levels than previously analyzed. To protect children’s health and to continue making progress on this important issue, EPA is lowering the dust-lead hazard standards from 40 micrograms of lead per square foot (µg/ft2) to 10 µg/ft2 on floors and from 250
µg/ft2 to 100 µg/ft2 on window sills. The more protective dust-lead hazard standards will apply to inspections, risk assessments, and abatement activities in pre-1978 housing and certain schools, child care facilities and hospitals across the country. In the City of Newburgh, approximately five out of every six houses or apartments were constructed before 1960 when lead-based paint was commonly used. The city has calculated, based on national statistics provided by HUD, that low- and moderate-income households occupy 3,433 rental units and 979 ownership units that contain lead paint. From 1996 to 1999, Newburgh was one of the top 15 cities in New York State for identified incidences of elevated levels of lead in children’s blood. Of those tested, 10.6% had more than 10 micrograms per deciliter. The 2004-2005 Surveillance Report issued by the New York State Department of Health identified 103 new ≥10 mcg/dL cases in the City and Township of Newburgh – the highest number identified in the state. During 2008, 96 homes were identified as having elevated lead levels indicating a continued source of lead exposure. In addition to the lead-based paint exposure, the City of Newburgh also identified high levels of lead in soil and drinking water. In November 2013, EPA helped launch the Lead Safe Newburgh Coalition partnership with local, state and federal agencies to tackle the serious problem of high blood lead levels in Newburgh’s children. The Coalition initiated EPA’s 3Ts Program (Training, Testing, & Telling) in the Newburgh Enlarged City School District (NECSD) to test taps and water fountains for lead. EPA also participated in the community-led event Block the Lead Block Party and met with the Newburgh Landlord’s Association to raise awareness of lead-based paint hazards in rental housing. In April and October 2014, EPA worked with the Greater Hudson Valley Family Health Center to provide free blood lead screening in a mobile health unit. In April 2018, EPA teamed up with the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), Brooklyn College & the U.S. Department of Agriculture to offer Newburgh residents free soil testing at Newburgh’s 3rd Annual Urban Farming Fair & SoilSHOP Event. Experts were on-hand to interpret results and to provide residents with lead and gardening information. Lead-contaminated dust from chipped or peeling lead-based paint is one of the most common causes of elevated blood lead levels in children. Infants and children are especially vulnerable to lead paint exposure because they their growing bodies absorb more lead than adults and their brains and nervous systems are more sensitive to the damaging effects of lead. They can be exposed from multiple sources and can cause irreversible and life-long health effects. Lead dust can be generated when lead-based paint deteriorates or is disturbed. The rule will become effective 180 days after date of publication in the Federal Register.

Wolfgang Puck’s Kitchen Summer Fun! How To Turn Cheeseburger Ingredients Into Pizza By Wolfgang Puck It may have seemed like it would never arrive, but suddenly we’re heading into summer. I love this season, because it gives me the chance to spend more time with my family now that the school year is over for my two younger sons. We may travel together a little, but mostly we enjoy warm-weather activities at home, including sports, swimming and, of course, cooking and eating delicious food. I think spending time in the kitchen with your children is one of the best summer activities imaginable. It teaches them skills they can use for a lifetime. And the end result is always a wonderful meal you can enjoy together, making happy memories as a family. Since I feature pizzas in so many of my restaurants across the country and around the world, they are often on the menu when we cook at home. But in summer, it can be fun to move away from the more traditional toppings that young ones like - such as plain cheese or meatballs with tomato sauce - and instead make pizzas that seem like something only a kid might dream up. In that spirit, I am happy to share a recipe for cheeseburger pizza. It’s one we have served sometimes in my more casual restaurants, and I even sometimes make it with my friend, Chef Marian Getz, who came up with this version for one of our appearances together on the Home Shopping Network. Some people might scratch their heads when they first hear mention of cheeseburger pizza, but it makes perfect sense. After all, a pizza crust is not much different from a big, openfaced bun. Some pizzas toppings include seasoned ground meat, like a burger. Ketchup and mustard are basically sauces. And cheese is cheese, whether in a sandwich or on a pizza. Cheeseburger pizza is as all-American as you can get, right down to the American cheese slices on top. But the beauty of this simple recipe is that, just like a burger, you can customize it however you like. If your children don’t like pickles, leave them out. If they hate mustard, add extra ketchup. If you’d prefer sharp cheddar, Gruyere or some other cheese on yours, go ahead. Love bacon on your burger? Fry some up, drain, cool, chop, and then crumble it over the beef. Trying to eat less red meat? Substitute ground turkey or chicken, or even some of the surprisingly realistic vegetable-based meat substitutes that are now becoming more widely available. In short, you can make your cheeseburger pizza any way you like it, and easily. And all the while, you and your kids will be having summertime fun together in the kitchen. CHEESEBURGER PIZZA Makes 4 pizzas, each about 8 inches (20 cm) 4 6-ounce (185 g) balls Wolfgang’s Pizza Dough (recipe follows) or 4 8-to-10-inch premade rolled-out pizza dough rounds 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion 1 pound (500 g) good-quality ground beef Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 4 tablespoons tomato ketchup 4 tablespoons yellow ballpark-style mustard,
or 4 more tablespoons tomato ketchup 8 thin lengthwise slices dill pickle or 24 dill pickle chips, drained 8 slices American cheese Place a pizza stone on the oven’s middle rack. Preheat the oven to 500 F (260 C). Meanwhile, on a lightly floured work surface, stretch out the dough balls into even 8-inch (20-cm) circles, shaping the edges slightly thicker. In a large nonstick saute pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and saute, stirring continuously with a wooden spoon, until it begins to turn translucent. Add the ground beef, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Saute, stirring continuously and breaking up the meat with the wooden spoon, until evenly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Using a wire skimmer or slotted spoon to help leave any fat in the pan, remove the beef from the pan, spreading it out evenly on a large sheet of aluminum foil or on a cookie sheet to help it cool quickly. While the meat is cooling, combine the ketchup and mustard in a small mixing bowl, stirring well; if you don’t want mustard, use twice as much ketchup. Spread this sauce over the top of the pizza dough rounds, up to but not over the thicker edge. Evenly spread the cooled beef over the sauce. Distribute the pickle slices on top. Place one American cheese slice in the center of each pizza. Cut or tear each of the remaining slices into quarters and distributed them around the center cheese sliced on each pizza. Using a pizza paddle or rimless baking sheet, transfer the pizzas one at a time to the pizza stone, baking only as many at one time as will fit comfortably onto the stone. Bake until deep golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Then, using the paddle or baking sheet, remove from the oven to a cutting board, cut into slices, and serve, while baking any remaining pizzas. WOLFGANG’S PIZZA DOUGH Makes 4 balls, each 6 ounces (185 g) 1 package active dry yeast 1 teaspoon honey 1 cup (250 mL) warm water, 105 F to 115 F (40 C to 46 C) 3 cups (750 mL) all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and honey in 1/4 cup (60 mL) warm water. In a food processor, combine the flour and salt. Add the oil, yeast mixture, and remaining water; process until a ball forms. Turn out onto a clean work surface and knead by hand until smooth and firm, about 3 minutes. Cover with a clean, damp towel and let rise in a cool spot for about 2 hours. Divide into 4 equal balls. Work each by pulling down the sides and tucking under. Repeat four or five times. On a smooth, unfloured surface, roll under your palm until smooth and firm, about 1 minute. Cover with a damp towel and let rest 1 hour. The balls can be wrapped in plastic and refrigerated for up to two days.
