—Photos by Jennifer Peacock (Left) Author J.R. Warnet spent the morning drinking coffee and talking about his new book, “The Day I Clean My Last Toilet.” (Right) “The Day I Clean My Last Toilet,” a novel by J.R. Warnet. By Jennifer Peacock TOMS RIVER – Do you hate your job, and the people at it? The narrator just finished telling his readers that his boss is something that rhy mes with “ b r o t h e r t r u c k e r.” This boss’s official title, more bureaucratic and possibly more ridiculous, is “Director in Charge of Revenue
Savings.” T he boss li kes to ma ke peo ple suffer and doesn’t spare even his own family members from his vindictiveness. “B ut I’m smarter t h a n y o u r a ve r age broom pusher. Well, smarter than most of the teachers and administrators in this dump, let’s put it that way. If I’ve learned
anything from years toiling away in this place, it’s that each d e ci sion yo u m a k e affects your future. Or rather, make sure yo u th i n k th re e o r four moves ahead of everybody.” But this boss, Mr. Sanders, is just one of many. As the narrator tells us, when you’re the school janitor, ev-
eryone is your boss. In the evolutionary pool of the public school system, janitors are the pond scum - no, no, lower than pond scum - on the chain. It’s the microcosmic dystopia n sat i re i n “The Day I Clean My Last Toilet,” the first n ovel - l e n g t h wo r k from author and Toms (Author - See Page 4)

By Bob Vosseller JACKSON - Members of the Jackson Zoning Board of Adjustment voted against permitting use variances that would have allowed for the building of an apartment complex featuring 192 residential units on West Veterans Highway on Route 528. The proposal involved a 29-acre tract on West Veterans Highway which is located in a Neighborhood Commercial zone that includes a diner. The proposal was for 112 residential apartments in seven two-story buildings and 23,000 square feet of commercial space. Applicants Dr. Ira Port and Alan Cohn submitted two applications which were examined during a public hearing last month for the property. The proposal had been modified since its initial introduction. One revision included shifting the proposed commercial space closer to Route 528. A second application involved a use variance for an 11-acre site on West Veterans Highway which is in a non-commercial zone which included a proposal to build 80 apartments in five two-story buildings and approximately 7,000 square feet of new commercial space. Attorney Kenneth Pape represented the applicants (Apartment - See Page 5)
School Security, Other Goals Set
By Bob Vosseller JACKSON – Security, schedules and more were discussed by Board of Education members and Superintendent Dr. Stephen Genco as they set goals for upcoming years. The district’s goal of adding additional security to each of the system’s 10 schools included a special ballot question last fall which was approved by voters and resulted in the hiring of additional security personnel. Moving forward, the district will continue to enhance security measures in the district and recruit additional bus drivers and mechanics. Goal setting for the new school year also includes expanding its student engagement practices district-wide and its problem-based curriculum and staff training (Goals - See Page 6)

Author:
Continued From Page 1 River native J.R. Warnet. Warnet, 37, a graduate of Stockton University, has degrees in creative writing, general education and marine environmental science. Its setting and nameless narrator, “The Janitor” (no relation to the Scr ubs character*, whose name was eventually revealed in the season eight finale), point to bigger realities outside institutional bureaucracy. “[The story] is about what can happen in a job that you work at for so many years and you need to spice things up a bit,” Warnet said. Writing the book was medicine for him. He star ted it back in the early aughts, not aiming for a book per se, but a way to release his creativity while str uggling through health problems, college, a full-time and second job. “I needed a creative outlet, to try to put things down on paper. An artist will paint. A musician will write songs. I needed a way to put things out there, so I started writing satire, fiction. I needed to put something on paper so I didn’t go stir crazy.” His fictional janitor graduated college and found there were no jobs waiting for him. The promises attached to the degree evaporated. So he stayed in a job, and stayed in a job, and stayed in a job he hated, to make ends meet. Two of Warnet’s writerly heroes - novelist Stephen King and memoirist David
Sedaris - started their work lives as janitors. Warnet has also worked in the custodial arts for more than 20 years. Does anyone really know the school janitor? They emerge at the end of things: end of lunch, end of the assembly, end of the day, and end of the school year. What is their point of view of jobs and life and messes? “Nobody really k nows the school janitor. They go unseen. You might see them but you don’t interact with them. There’s a nostalgia in that, in society, that you’re not supposed to interact with the janitor. Or, this person is obviously doing this for a reason. They can’t work anywhere else. So I thought it would be interesting to see things from that point of view.” The novel started as vignettes, little glimpses in time of a janitor’s day interacting with staff and students at some nondescript Ocean County school. The reader sees The Janitor’s compassionate side with down-on-their-luck underlings; his taking down Mr. Sanders’ right-hand man that involves Ancestry. com and Guinness; his receiving sage advice from a jaded union lifer who told him not to be a “dumbass loser.” He might be a loser, but he’s a threesteps-ahead loser. Warnet never had one particular job on his Curriculum Vitae that birthed The Janitor, or the book. “A lot of people have to go to school or go to trade school. They’re ready to take on the world. And when they leave
college or trade school, there are 10,000 people waiting for one job. So people have to take odds-and-ends jobs to get by. People work jobs they’re severely overqualified for, but they still have to do it. Everybody’s got health insurance they need. You get to a point where you have to make certain sacrifices to get by, and you do it,” Warnet said. “Some people wake up every day loving their job, other people don’t. But both still have to do their jobs.” In a 2014 interview with Maclean’s, comedian and author Martin Short said this about comedy: “Comedy is so subjective. If you trip and fall down, some people will laugh and some people will say ‘Oh, physical comedy is so pedestrian.’ Some people look at Three Stooges as lowbrow; some people consider them artists. No one is wrong. It’s just a personal take.” Warnet let his own sense of humor guide his writing, although The Janitor thinks himself a tragic figure. “If it makes me laugh and I can’t stop laughing, I know it’s going to be good. For the longest time I’ve watched standup comedians. I’ve always had a bit of a dark sense of humor. When I would write and read it out loud, I would try to get the character’s voice. I would read it aloud and if it sounded funny, I would work with it. If it didn’t, I would scratch it and edit it and try something else.” His book has gotten solid reviews on Amazon.com. “I couldn’t put this book down. The first few chapters I laughed
my butt off and the last few chapters, I was captured by the crazy characters and couldn’t wait to see how it was going to end. Pick up this book if you are looking to laugh! Such a page turner!” one reader praised. Warnet has been giving readings at Barnes & Noble bookstores. His next book signing is at the Menlo Park store July 27. Details aren’t solid yet but he has a radio interview in the work with a New York City station in early August. He’s also recording an audio version of his book, and a second book told through The Janitor’s eyes. “A lot of people find a lot of humor in the book, and it’s a different angle that they’re very receptive to,” Warnet said. And his audience he meets encompasses all sorts, not just disillusioned college grads with mortgage-sized student loans living in their childhood bedrooms. He agrees that not everyone will find “The Day I Clean My Last Toilet” funny or appreciate and understand its of ten rough language. That’s okay. He wants people struggling to find work or find fulfilling, full-time work to laugh at the absurdities. “The days of working your dream job are over. You always have to make money somehow. We’ll just hit the lottery, which is what I’ve been trying as well.” Or, you could buy his book. It’s available online on Amazon.com and BN.com.

Continued From Page 1 and was joined by professionals Mike Intilly, Art Bernard, Jeffery Otteau, and Richard Tokarski who testified during the public hearing. According to the minutes of the June 5 meeting, Pape stated this was the applicant’s third presentation for this application and explained that there were two separate applications because of the slight differences per lot. The application process started in March with a presentation of the work Port and Cohn had done which included environmental studies. Intilly took the Board through the development proposal, and identified that this site is adjacent to uses similar if not the same, such as a neighboring apartment unit built on septic system, a small restaurant built on small septic system and a small strip where Port and Cohn practice. Testimony also included analysis of the graphics of Jackson, and the regional Monmouth area. The target of the one and two bedrooms was shared to suggest this type of housing was needed in this area of the township. Bernard’s testimony included the use variance requirements, and also included increasing commercial development. During an April 17, 2019 Zoning Board of Adjustment meeting members allowed the applicant to meet with them and professionals, and a few hours were spent reviewing the plans Board member Joseph Sullivan said during the meeting that he had a concern with the application in that the Board is rezoning, and if the town wanted this to be mix use zone it would’ve been made into a mixed use zone. “Perhaps this isn’t the right venue for this application. This is a great application willing to bring
The Jackson Times, July 27, 2019, Page 5 sewer to this area which is desperately needed but the Board shouldn’t have to overstep its authority by saying “ok you can have a mixed zone because you’re a good guy with a good application,” Sullivan said. Board member Stephen Costanzo and Board Vice Chairman Carl Book also agreed that the application presentation was excellent but expressed that there was an opportunity for the project to go to council to rezone and the area is currently a bit of a mix. Board member Peter Maher said “the numbers may be off, the space to the road is still concerning but it is a solid plan.” Alternate board member Denis Weigert said he had concerns. One of them was that similar projects have already been approved in residential zones. “The area is rather busy with three schools including Goddard, and the strip mall, this would be adding a lot with the commercial and residential making a left on and off West Veterans.” Alternate board member Gary Miller said that he moved to Jackson in 1983 and since that time there had been talk of a town center. “The old-style town center has retail and residential, and Jackson doesn’t have that, there is Farley’s and Shop Rite, but there aren’t any small businesses.” Miller agreed with a comment made by Book about the need for more affordable units adding that sewers have kept that concept of a town center away from the area. Both applications received a 4-3 vote in favor of approval. However, because a use variance was requested, five votes are needed for approval. Therefore, both plans were declined. Miller, Book, Maher and Costanzo voted yes to both applications while Board Chairman Sheldon Hofstein, Sullivan, and Weigert voted no to each.

Continued From Page 1 that focuses on real-world applications for students grades 9-12. Another goal is to implement a new middle school schedule and to review a nd recom mend a new h ig h school schedule. The district is also seeking to expand in-class resources to fourth grade students and continue efforts to increase awareness of student mental health. Dist rict staff will also implement student social emotional learning approaches for students in kindergarten through 12th grade. The Board’s plan to build a satellite transportation facility on property near the Jackson Liberty High School is another goal which has moved forward. It was noted during a July 17 Board of Education meeting that the construction is ahead of schedule and may be operational by March 2020. Construction began February 2019 and the majority of permits were received as of May 2019. The project will be funded through earmarked surplus funds and did not impact the district’s current school budget. Beyond the completion of its satellite transpor tation facility, the district’s facilities goals included the completion of an irrigation project at the Jackson Liberty HS athletic fields and to continue to prioritize and plan new projects. Other goals include pursuing alternate revenue sources, continuing multi-year implementation of document archival system and researching the feasibility of reducing courtesy busing routes for the 2020-2021 school year. During the meeting, off icials took the time to check the status of previous goals, such as finance issues. The district had identified and implemented revenue-generating endeavors and also add ressed t ranspor t at ion person nel shortages.

District officials also reviewed the student schedules for high school and middle school students, student mental health programs and communication efforts particularly those aimed at making the district more transparent for parents and the public. This current school year the district has been facing a budget shortfall based on a new state aid funding formula. Genco said earlier this year that the state aid cuts have not only affected the current school year but will impact several years to come if left unchanged. Genco said during the spring that “this is an u njust and inequitable school funding law known as S2.” According to the district’s website, “Under this funding law, the Jackson School District stands to lose a total of $17.3 million in aid over the next seven years which broken down is: • 2019-2020: $1.35 million • 2020-2021: $1.7 million • 2021-2022: $2.4 million • 2022-2023: $3.1 million • 2023-2024: $3.6 million • 2024-2025: $4.1 million The 2019-2020 goals included a focus on improving student attendance which was stated in a PowerPoint presentation as “essential to motivate students to learn.” Other areas covered in the goal setting presentation included focus on current and relevant technology which an integral part of enhancing instruction. The district also seeks to offer diverse instructional opportunities in core subjects and in the fine and performing arts in an effort to provide a well-rounded education.

SPOTLIGHT ON GOVERNMENT Correspondence & Commentary From Your Local, County, State & Federal Officials
State Sues IRS Over Deduction Limit Imposed On Charity From The Desk Of The
Governor Phil Murphy TRENTON - Acting to protect state taxpayers from the Trump Administration’s repeated efforts to unfairly target them, Governor Phil Murphy and Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal announced that New Jersey has filed a federal lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the U.S. Treasury Department. Filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, the lawsuit seeks to strike down a new IRS rule that would prevent New Jersey residents from obtaining a full federal charitable deduction whenever they contribute to local governments and other qualifying institutions and receive tax credits in return. The federal government began targeting states like New Jersey two years ago when it enacted a 2017 tax overhaul that placed, for the first time,
a $10,000 cap on the federal deduction for state and local taxes (SALT). The SALT cap disproportionately harmed taxpayers in New Jersey, Connecticut, and New York. At the time, U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin – named as a defendant in the lawsuit – confirmed that the SALT deduction cap was intended to “send a message” to states like New Jersey that they would need to change their tax policies. To ease the burden of New Jersey taxpayers, Governor Murphy signed S1893/A3499 into law, which allowed residents to make charitable contributions to qualifying local institutions, and to receive partial tax credits of up to 90 percent against their local property tax bills when they did so. At least 33 states have developed over 100 charitable contributions programs, sim-
ilar to the one established by S1893/A3499, that provide a state or local tax benefit in return for a charitable contribution to a qualifying entity under Section 170(c). These programs incentivize individuals to donate to causes ranging from natural resource preservation and aid for higher education to domestic violence shelters. The IRS consistently treated charitable contributions made pursuant to these programs as fully deductible under federal tax law. But when New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut decided to establish such programs, the IRS changed its mind, and issued a new rule aimed at nullifying the tax benefit New Jersey was making available to charitable givers. The Final Rule requires taxpayers to subtract the value of any state and local tax credits they receive for charitable giving from their federal charitable contribution deduction. The requirement is unprecedented in the 101-year history of the charitable deduction, and flies in the face of prior IRS policy statements and tax court rulings on the issue.
The New Jersey-led lawsuit describes IRS’s action as a “radical break” from historic precedent, and describes the rule as arbitrary, outside the agency’s statutory authority, and a violation of the federal Administrative Procedures Act. In addition to being unlawful, the complaint asserts, the rule threatens economic harm to New Jersey and other states by discouraging charitable giving, and by depriving such local entities as school districts, municipalities, and counties of important funding. Indeed, because the law signed by Governor Murphy does not provide dollar-for-dollar tax credits, contributions made pursuant to that program would yield a net increase in local revenues, which local governments could use on vital services like education. “This is another unfair attack on our states coming out of Washington,” said Attorney General Grewal. “These tax credit programs were fine when 33 states had them. But when New Jersey, New York and Connecticut followed suit, the IRS adopted brand new rules to shut
President & Publisher Stewart Swann
them down. As I promised when the IRS first proposed this rule, we’re taking the IRS to court to fight back.” The states of New York and Connecticut joined the lawsuit, which Governor Murphy and Attorney General Grewal announced at the South Orange Fire Department. “This is not a fight we asked for, but it is one we are proud to wage - on behalf of our taxpayers, and the countless others in our fellow states who are realizing now that they are financial collateral damage to the Trump administration’s rank politicization of the tax code,” said Governor Phil Murphy. “We are committed to fighting Washington to end this unfair and unconstitutional tax on New Jersey’s taxpayers.” “The Trump administration and the IRS are trying to undermine states’ efforts to protect our taxpayers against the unprecedented, unlawful and politically motivated capping of the SALT deduction,” said Governor Andrew Cuomo. “The final IRS rule flies in the face of a century of federal tax law that says state choices to provide tax incentives for charitable donations do not
affect the federal deductibility of those gifts. Our message to Mr. Trump and the IRS is simple: we look forward to seeing you in court.” “The federal tax reforms approved by Congress were promoted as a tax cut, but in reality they’ve resulted in a tax hike for millions of citizens, including thousands here in Connecticut,” said Governor Ned Lamont. “This was a purely partisan bill and – let’s be frank – aimed directly at blue states like Connecticut, New York, and New Jersey. It’s unfair, discriminatory, and unconstitutional.” “Our message to the IRS today is simple. No matter how many times you change your rules - from capping the SALT deduction to reversing your longstanding approach to charitable donations - we will challenge you in court,” said New Jersey Attorney General Grewal. “Our residents already pay more to the federal government than we get in return. That is why I remain committed to standing up for New Jersey taxpayers in the face of this onslaught coming out of Washington.”

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

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.

Do You Get What You Pay For?
We have become more and more health conscious. Visits to the dentist, eye doctor and family doctor have increased dramatically. Unfortunately, visits to the audiologist for suspicion of hearing loss have decreased. Most people are so busy visiting their doctors they have a tendency to put off seeking hearing health care for at least several years. As a general guideline, if you are asking your family or friends to repeat information on a daily basis, you should seek the services of an audiologist and have your hearing completely evaluated. Technology in the hearing aid world has dramatically blossomed. More and more individuals with hearing loss are interested in digital technology as opposed to conventional hearing aids, which are a thing of the past. A digital system incorporates listening from both ears through a computer which monitors speech sounds over a million times a second. Satisfaction studies clearly support the use of digital systems over conventional analog hearing aids. In my opinion, you get what you pay for. Digital hearing systems incorporating multiple microphone technology, enhanced noise reduction capabilities, data logging
and/or artificial intelligence are strongly recommended over those first generation digital hearing systems. The smaller completely-in-the-canal digital hearing systems (i.e. almost invisible hearing aids) should not increase the cost of hearing instruments. The technology within the hearing instrument determines the cost. As a general rule of thumb, in my opinion, the smaller the hearing aid, the more problems you will have with it. As a reminder, insist on a 30- to 75-day trial period with all digital hearing systems. Since you have a greater investment, your expectations regarding communication improvement should be higher. In my opinion, some of the more advanced digital hearing systems are manufactured by Phonak, Siemens, Sonic Innovations, GN Resound and Oticon. If you are asking people to repeat, turning the TV or radio louder than normal or if your family or friends are complaining that you have a hearing problem, I would strongly encourage you to have your hearing evaluated by an audiologist. If you are in need of amplification, remember that you always get what you pay for.

H eRe ’ s t o Y ouR H eAltH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
Protect Yourself With Fruit By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. Some people eat nothing but fruit. They are called fruitarians. While I do not advocate this diet for everyone, I do see the virtues in fruits! I highly recommend you include fruits in your diet. The primary reason is they taste great, give you natural fiber and contain natural antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds. This will tamp down some of the pain cytokines that your body has run amok with. Here are some fruits of the season, and the primary reason I recommend them. Apricots Apricots are yellow-orange and the color comes from beta carotene which is a precursor to vitamin A. They also contain lutein and zeaxanthin. These are all useful for vision. Apricots have been studied for their beneficial role in fatty liver. Pomegranates These fruits contain compounds that naturally lower your blood pressure. If you drink more than say a shot glass per day, and you’re also taking blood pressure medications, your numbers may go too low. Pomegranate juice has another helpful effect on the body in that is a natural, mild blood thinner. Fig fruit. Figs are now being studied for their ability to help with diabetes, as well as hypertension. They are high in potassium (and low in sodium) which means they can reduce blood pressure. Figs contain abscisic acid, which has been studied for its ability to help with carbohydrate metabolism and blood sugar. This fruit extract is in GlucoScript Max. Strawberries Strawberries are red from the anthocyanins. These gorgeous fruits contain ferulic acid have been shown to have a remarkably high scavenging activity toward chemically
generated radicals, thus making them effective in inhibiting oxidation of human LDLs Blackberries These contain antibacterial compounds that are thought to help with gum disease. They also contain lot of quercetin and ellagic acid which taken together act as very strong free-radical scavengers and protect your cells from DNA damage. This could be helpful if you have a history of cancer. Grapefruits This fruit can help with appetite suppression and may be useful as an adjunctive to your weight loss program and exercise regimen. It can spark more production of cholecystokinin which is a ‘stop sign’ for eating. Grapefruit rind (and orange rind) contain a lot of naringen, a compound that causes a bitter taste in the fruit. This compound is the one that interacts with some antihistamines and statins. That said, naringen is also known for its cough-suppressant action, and ability to help out with asthma. Apples These could help reduce stroke, compliments of the high amount of quercetin. This effect was even confirmed by a study published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition which evaluated 9,208 men and women, concluding, “The intake of apples is related to a decreased risk of thrombotic stroke.” Raspberries The fruit itself contains vitamin C, quercetin and ellagic acid. These are all strong antioxidants and fight cancer and inflammation. The leaves of raspberries have been used to create commercial teas which are widely available. The leaves contain fragarine, which is a strong inhibitor of uterine contractions. In other words, a cup of raspberry leaf tea can help with PMS.

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.

County Prepared To Service Pets with Disaster Relief
By Kimberly Bosco OCEAN COUNTY — According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, over a third of US households are also home to a furry companion. In Ocean County, many local families have dogs or cats they consider part of the family. In an effort to service both humans and animals in the event of an emergency, Ocean County has become the newest member of the AKC Pet Disaster Relief program. AKC Reunite is the largest non-profit pet identification and recovery service provider in the United States. Their national program, AKC Pet Disaster Relief, is dedicated to keeping pets and their owners safe in response to natural or civil disasters. In collaboration with local American Kennel Club dog clubs and dog lovers, AKC Reunite presented an emergency trailer to the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office. The AKC Pet Disaster Relief trailer will be available to dispatch to any disaster scene that needs assistance sheltering pets. “We are beyond grateful to AKC Reunite and the Kennel Club of Philadelphia for providing us with this life-saving tool for our community,” said Kevin Cooney of the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office. “Our department is now better equipped to help pets and pet owners in the case of a disaster.” In the event of an emergency, the AKC Pet Disaster Relief trailers create a safe, temporary home for at least 65 pets during the first 72 hours after a disaster is declared. Inside the trailers you will find essential animal care items including crates and carriers, AKC Reunite microchips, an AKC Reunite universal microchip scanner, bowls, collars, leashes, fans, lighting and a generator, cleaning supplies and maintenance items. These supplies can be used as co-location shelters, where people can evacuate with their pets, as well as emergency animal shelters for displaced animals. “This is the 76th trailer donated through the AKC Pet Disaster Relief program. The trailer will provide critical resources to help the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office quickly assist its community when responding to natural disasters,” said Tom Sharp, AKC Reunite CEO. “Safe, effective pet sheltering solutions are important following a disaster, and we are pleased that an AKC Pet Disaster Relief trailer will be available to the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office as a vital tool.” A generous donation of $100,000, courtesy of the Kennel Club of Philadelphia, funded the purchase of the OCSD’s new trailer. While Ocean County was the first, the donations funds will continue to provide trailers to eight other counties throughout New Jersey and Pennsylvania. “Our association is thrilled to be able to bring such an important resource like the AKC Pet Disaster Relief Trailer to the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office,” said Wayne Ferguson, President of the Kennel Club of Philadelphia. “The trailer will help the organization assist their community in times of disaster”.

Bring a kettle of water to a boil. For the cobbler filling, in a medium saucepan combine the nectarines, cherries, apricots, sugar, lemon juice, flour, vanilla seeds and pod, cinnamon and nutmeg. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, just until the juices start to thicken but the fruit is still firm, about 5 minutes. Remove the vanilla pod and cinnamon stick. Stir in the blackberries. Divide the mixture evenly among the ramekins. Sprinkle streusel on top. Place the ramekins in a baking pan. Pull out the oven rack partway and place the pan on it. Then, carefully pour boiling water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Carefully slide the rack into the oven. Bake until the juices are thick, about 30 minutes. Carefully remove from the oven and set the ramekins aside to cool for a few minutes. Transfer each ramekin to a serving plate. Place a phyllo nest on top. Serve immediately.
