Town Hall Treasure: Beech Tree Turned Masterpiece
By Kimberly Bosco STAFFORD – Outside the Stafford Township Municipal Complex sits an osprey atop its perch, adjacent to a lighthouse. No, not a real osprey. And not the actual Ole’ Barney.
W hat was once a long-standing American beech tree outside town hall has been t ra nsfor med i nto a wooden work of wonder at the hands of Kevin Treat, second place winner of this year’s

installation as a centerpiece of the town. Estimated at 200 years old, the American beech tree had fi nally reached its point of no return, overcome by bracket fungus, which (Tree - See Page 5)

After six rounds of chemo, she may have lost her hair but she has gained a new lease on life. By Kimberly Bosco The NJ Lottery estimates that you have a one in about 300 million chance of claiming that Mega Millions jackpot. National Geographic estimates that you have a one in 700,000 chance of being struck by lightning in the US. These high odds may seem wildly unlikely, yet we still buy lottery tickets and we still seek shelter from a harsh storm. As a female, the odds of being diagnosed with ovarian cancer are a strikingly low one in 78. But does every woman take similar precautions to beat those odds? Does every woman get tested?

Ovarian:
Continued From Page 1 Cancer Awareness Month in an effort to shed light on the “silent killer” that is ovarian cancer. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), ovarian cancer causes more deaths than any other cancer of the female reproductive system. Ovarian cancer ranks in the top 10 cancers by rates of new cases, and in the top four by rates of cancer deaths, which means that “for every 100,000 women, 10 new Ovarian Cancer cases were reported and 7 died of cancer,” according to CDC data. The National Women’s Health Network calls ovarian cancer the “silent killer,” due to its non-specific symptoms and lack of early detection tests. This makes it hard to detect at the earlier stages, i.e. stage I or II. The National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC) states that “when one is diagnosed and treated in the earliest stages, the five-year survival rate is over 90 percent… If caught in stage III or higher, the survival rate can be as low as 28 percent.” The NOCC added that, due to the nature of the disease, it is nearly impossible to provide a generalized prognosis for any and all women diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Strong-Minded Survivors With such odds, you might already know or have met someone who has been diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Perhaps you know of a survivor, one like Stephanie LeBrocq.
LeBrocq, 52, of Toms River was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in December 2018. About eight months later, she spoke with Jersey Shore Online about her disease, recovery, and hope for the future. As the NOCC stated, those diagnosed in the later stages have a slim chance of survival. Diagnosed at stage III, LeBrocq was determined to beat the odds. In April 2018, LeBrocq visited her doctor after experiencing severe pelvic pain. Pelvic pain is one of the many “non-specific” symptoms associated with ovarian cancer. Other symptoms include bloating, abdominal pain, trouble eating or feeling full quickly, or feeling the need to urinate urgently or often, according to the NOCC. In June 2018, she was informed that her CA 125 (cancer antigen 125) was elevated and was advised to see an oncologist. CA 125 is a “tumor-associated protein.” Physicians can perform a CA 125 test that will allow them to measure the amount of the CA 125 protein in your blood. Ovarian cancer is one of a few certain cancers that cause CA 125 levels to increase dramatically. In September 2018, LeBrocq underwent surgery to have her fi rst ovary removed after her doctor told her it was “borderline cancerous.” In November 2018, she had a full hysterectomy. The National Women’s Health Network noted that some forms of ovarian cancer can be successfully treated with the “removal of the ovaries and nearby reproductive organs, followed by chemotherapy to kill any remaining cancer cells. The earlier the cancer
is discovered, the less extensive the surgery and the greater the chance at success.” However, early detection is key. LeBrocq’s cancer was not detected at an early enough stage, thus this method proved unsuccessful for her. In December 2018, LeBrocq received her diagnosis. Dr. ElSahwi at Ocean Medical Center diagnosed her with stage III ovarian cancer, which was invading her omentum, a part of the stomach and intestines. “I was completely devastated,” she said. Her doctor prescribed six rounds of chemotherapy which she dove into in January 2019. “One thing that helped me a lot was that Dr. ElSahwi kept telling me that I was going to be okay,” said LeBrocq. Between January and May, LeBrocq underwent chemo, which she said was extremely hard for her. Despite the pain, she worked hard to keep a positive outlook. “It literally felt like you could feel it going through your body…I don’t even know how to describe it,” she said. “It felt like I was in a fog, and nauseous.” The effects of chemo only added to her initial symptoms. LeBrocq noted that when she fi rst went to the doctor in April, she was doubled over with pelvic pains and throwing up. “Losing my hair was the hardest, I mean, I’m a hairdresser,” she joked. By the time May rolled around, LeBrocq had been poked and prodded countless times, lost all her hair, and made it out the other side to great news: her scans were clear.
A second round of scans in August only confi rmed that LeBrocq had beaten her cancer. Now nearly five months cancer-free, LeBrocq said she “lives everyday like it’s my last.” LeBrocq, who is married with two kids, is no stranger to tragedy. Five years ago, LeBrocq lost her son. After facing what she considers the worst pain of her life, she knew she could and would beat her cancer. “I learned that life is precious and you just have to keep going,” she added. Beat The Odds LeBrocq’s advice for any women who might be experiencing “even slight symptoms,” is to “go get checked right away.” If you do not show any signs or symptoms of ovarian cancer – such as pelvic or abdominal pain, etc. – it may be a challenge to get screened for the disease. The CDC noted that when no symptoms are present, there is “no simple and reliable way” to screen for ovarian cancer. However, the CDC’s advice is this: pay attention to your body. Take stock of what is normal for your body, and pay close attention to any changes that may occur. “If you notice any changes in your body that are not normal for you and could be a sign of ovarian cancer, talk to your doctor about them,” stated the CDC. Diagnostic tests used to detect or rule out ovarian cancer include a rectovaginal pelvic exam, a transvaginal ultrasound, or a CA-125 blood test. (Ovarian - See Page 5)

Those with a higher risk for ovarian cancer should have transvaginal sonograms and CA-125 blood tests, which detect a protein produced by ovarian cancer cells, though those tests can produce false positives. Women with a family history of breast or ovarian cancers should consider genetic testing for BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations. Those genes help suppress tumors, but
when mutated, lead to an increased chance of cancer development. The National Cancer Institute advises that women should consider genetic testing if they were diagnosed with breast cancer before age 50; they have cancer in both breasts; family members have been diagnosed with both breast and ovarian cancer; there are multiple breast cancers in one family; there are cases of male breast
Tree:
Continued From Page 1 causes decay and rot in trees to the point of eventual weakening and breakage, officials said. Mayor Gregory Myhre previously told Jersey Shore Online, that “the tree had been treated by an arborist for several years but they informed us that it was no longer ethical to do anything more with the tree since it was in an advanced state of decay and could not be saved.” In an effort to preserve the lifespan of a piece of the township’s history, officials assigned Treat the task of carving away the harmful fungus and unearthing something beautiful. The wooden statue-like figure sits about 10 feet tall, where the original tree was cut down after the fungus took over. Mayor Myhre had said the carving would “emphasize the natural beauty of our area.” And that it does, featuring the native shore-residing bird, the osprey, and one of our area’s most noticeable landmarks, the lighthouse.

Letters To The Editor Trump Obstructing Justice Trump is a danger to our democracy. Given the overwhelming evidence Mueller presented in his report and testimony, and the willingness of this administration to let foreign powers interfere in our democracy, it’s past time Congress opened a formal impeachment inquiry. No more excuses. No more delays. The Mueller investigation found extensive criminal activity committed by Trump and his team. It resulted in 37 indictments and at least seven convictions or guilty pleas, uncovered over 10 instances of obstruction of justice by Trump himself, and revealed over 100 secret meetings and communications between his campaign and Russians and their cronies. If any other American had obstructed justice as f lagrantly as Trump has, they’d be going to jail. Our representative needs to step up now, because doing nothing will only embolden Trump to trample over our democratic norms and to keep breaking the law. Doing nothing sets a dangerous precedent for future presidents. For all of these reasons, it’s time for our representative to voice their support for a formal impeachment inquiry. Gregory A. Clewell Seaside Heights
Parents Should Be Able To Opt Out Of LGBTQ Ed I want to thank everyone who reached out to me by e-mail or phone call to show their support for the stand I took at the August and September Barnegat Township meetings, regarding the LGBTQ Curriculum with no opt out option for our children.
Letters To have The Editor Many of you expressed had the opportunity to I am r unning against exactly what I espoused at those meetings. Our children need to be protected from the special interests whose individuals hold views contrary to what the vast majority in our community embrace. Prior to the shift that has occurred over the past 25 years, education was determined by the citizens of each local community, holding to the standards of that community. That has radically changed, highlighted with the law recently enacted under the authority of the state’s governor. The historical truth is that families, principally parents, have had the responsibility - and right - to determine how the issue of sex is presented to their children…not the government. This view was expressed by me at the meetings. In spite of the vile criticism and worse, twisted reporting by the media, the rights of parents, not government, nor the shouting opposition, still holds true and someone needed to say so. The overwhelming, private response from the members of our town confirms this. Parents want to guide their children in regards to sexual matters. They do not want to be bullied by the government, or other special interest groups, who should not have control over family matters, such as a child’s sexual education. Moving forward, the people of the State of N.J. must come together to make our legislature aware that the mainstream of the people want this reversed. Please contact your state representatives and tell them to reinstate your parental rights by repealing Senate Bill 1569. Again, I offer no apologies. Although the First Amendment seems to be shredded more and more each day, there is still enough of it left to allow me the legal right to do so. In so doing, my constituents know exactly where I stand. In closing, I am thankful to
stand-in-the-gap safeguarding the rights of parents and safeguarding the well-being of their children. It is an honor to do so. Alfonso Cirulli Mayor Barnegat Township
Watch Donations In Toms River Race I believe Toms River residents should be concerned with the unusually cozy relationship between Councilman (and candidate for mayor) Maurice “Mo” Hill and Mr. Scott Gartner - a man who has threatened to sue the town to force changes to zoning laws that sensibly restrict the construction of houses of worship. According to an ar ticle from the Asbury Park Press (June 21, 2018), Gartner threatened to sue Toms River, contending that the 10-acre zoning rules for religious buildings were “aimed at preventing the const r uction of Or tho dox Jewish shuls (synagogues).” Gartner claimed that he and his neighbors have retained an at torney to pursue the lawsuit and have a “war chest of $500,000.” Campaign fi nance reports filed in recent months reveal that Hill received a $2,600 donation to his mayor’s campaign from Gar t ner, the maximu m contribution allowed by law. Councilman Hill, a former member of the Toms River land use committee (Planning Board), clearly should not be accepting campaign donations with someone who is lobbying for zoning changes. This speaks volumes about Hill’s judgment and priorities. Toms River citizens deserve an explanation. Toms River deserves better from a sitting councilman, and we certainly deserve better from someone who wants to be our mayor.
Councilman Hill for mayor in the election this November. If I am fortunate enough to be elected, I will uphold Toms River’s 10-acre zoning rules for religious buildings, which have been in place since 2009. I will not cave to special interest groups. Jonathan Petro Candidate for Toms River Mayor

A Brief Introduction to Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) By: Olivia Santa Maria, DPT WHAT IS SOFT TISSUE?
TREATED WITH IASTM?
The term “Soft tissue” refers to the fascia (connective tissue), muscles, tendons, and ligaments that make up the body. Injuries to these areas are a common cause of pain and dysfunction that causes patients to seek the assistance of a physical or occupational therapist. There are a variety of techniques used to treat these conditions, including exercise, modalities, and manual therapies. Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) is one of the manual techniques a physical or occupational therapist can use to treat these injuries.
The different shapes and edges of the tools allow the clinician to use them around all of the different contours of the body, which make them useful for most conditions seen in the clinic. These tools can be used to break down scar tissue after surgery, decrease pain caused by sprains and strains to ligaments and muscles, reduce swelling/edema, and alleviate nerve restrictions. Common conditions that warrant use of IASTM treatment are joint replacements,
there may be some soreness or discomfort. It is important to not be alarmed by these symptoms, and recognize that these are temporary symptoms being closely monitored by your therapist. After several treatments, there should be a noticeable change in mobility and function. IASTM, combined with your
WHAT IS IASTM, AND WHY IS IT USED? When soft tissue injuries occur, the natural processes of the body lay down new cells to heal the injury. These cells are often laid down in a disorganized pattern and they can bind to the underlying tissues, ultimately restricting the mobility of these structures. Instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization involves the use of tools to mobilize the soft tissue structures of the body. These tools come in many shapes and sizes, and are made of a variety of materials, such as stainless steel, plastic, jade, and ceramic. While the tools may differ in shape and material, they share the common purpose of assisting the clinician with mobilizing the injured soft tissue in order to reduce adhesions (scar tissue), increase blood flow to the injured area, and encourage healing of the damaged tissue. WHAT INJURIES ARE MOST COMMONLY
exercise program, can help you return to your normal daily activities and hobbies. Rotator cuff tears and surgical repairs, plantar fasciitis, muscle strains, and tendonitis. WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT? Your physical or occupational therapist will evaluate you at your initial visit to determine if your condition warrants the use of IASTM. This will not be the primary treatment, but rather one technique your therapist uses to assist in your recovery. The technique itself involves the clinician using the tool in a scraping motion along the surface of the skin. In order to “re-start” the healing process, your therapist is causing a micro-trauma to the injured area to encourage the body to heal itself. Therefore, temporary redness, heat sensation, and sometimes bruising are normal immediately following treatment, and
OLIVIA SANTA MARIA, DPT Olivia graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Public Health and a Minor in Gerontology from The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey in 2012. She continued her education at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of NJ in Newark, where she received her Doctorate of Physical Therapy in 2015. While in graduate school, Olivia and her fellow colleagues conducted a study entitled “For individuals with lower extremity musculoskeletal injuries, do off-the- shelf video games, compared to standard of care, improve balance, function, and patient satisfaction?” The abstract was accepted and Olivia presented the poster at the National Combined Section Meeting in 2015. Since graduating in 2015, Olivia’s primary professional focus has been in the orthopedic outpatient setting, although she has also worked and completed clinical experiences in both acute care and acute rehabilitation. Olivia is a certified LSVT Big clinician, and she has been trained in Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization. Olivia is interested in non-operative and operative orthopedic conditions, sports rehabilitation, balance and gait dysfunction, and manual therapy. Her future professional plans include becoming a Board Certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist. Olivia is currently treating at the new Manahawkin facility.

BLOODY SPOT IN THE EYE
It can be quite disconcerting to look in the mirror and discover that you have a spot of blood under the transparent membrane (conjunctiva) that covers the surface of your eye. Called a “subconjunctival hemorrhage,” the condition can occur without you knowing it, following a forceful cough, sneeze, or straining effort. The conjunctiva contains tiny blood vessels that can break (or leak) after sudden increases in pressure. In these cases, the redness usually clears up within a week or two as the blood is reabsorbed. However, if pain or any change in vision is experienced, the ophthalmologist should be consulted. Subconjunctival hemorrhaging is also related to “diabetic retinopathy,” which should not be allowed to go untreated. Despite its bloody appearance, a subconjunctival hemorrhage should cause no change in your vision, no discharge from your eye, and no pain. Your only discomfort may be a scratchy feeling on the surface of your eye. SUSSKIND & ALMALLAH EYE ASSOCIATES is dedicated to providing a full spectrum of high-quality personalized eye care. To schedule an appointment, please call our office at 732-349-5622. Our doctors take the time to listen to and answer your questions so that you can make the best choices to fit your unique needs and lifestyle.

Fundraiser Organized For Child Suffering Rare Ailment
By Bob Vosseller SEASIDE HEIGHTS – A borough family has organized a GoFundMe campaign to secure funds for their 5 ½ year old son who is suffering from a rare brain condition. “Doing this is so hard but I know we need the help. We do not know where to turn at this point. Our hearts hurt so badly. Our beautiful son, Charles, has been given the biggest challenges a child could go through,” his mother Ashely Massa said. Charles has had three brain surgeries and two spinal surgeries as well as eight other surgeries and is going in for foot surgery on Nov. 1. “Our biggest struggle is something called Chiari Malformation which is when the cerebellum tonsils herniate past the Foramen Magnum. There are numerous different types and Charles started with Chiari 1 Malformation and now has Chiari 1.5 Malformation,” Massa said. The difference is now Charles’ brainstem is herniating as well. “This is causing him
WARETOWN – Sleigh bells are ringing and the boys are swinging! This holiday themed theatrical production i ncludes a m i x of holid ay classics, original Christmas songs and timeless
numerous issues and he is getting worse and worse. He has had two decompressions,” Massa said, explaining that this type of surgery is meant to help with the symptoms-it does not go away and has had a shunt placement after he developed Hydrocephalus following his operation. Family members were heartbroken after learning the results of his latest MRI which showed Charles “needs to get to California to see the only neurosurgeon that could possibly help. He is our only hope and just to get the second opinion for him to look at his imaging and everything is $700,” Massa said. The family wants to fly out to see the neurosurgeon. “We are not guaranteed flights with any organization but no matter what I would need to pay for my mom since she would need to come with me to help with our daughter,” Massa said. Hotel costs are also a concern of the family as a room at the hospital is not guaranteed. “With that comes a rental car, food and things like that. Insurance will not
be paying for this appointment or future appointments or surgeries in California,” Massa said. Massa said that she learned from other families that have done what they are planning that the hospital will possibly make a payment plan “but even then we cannot afford it.” Charles sees over 10 specialists at this point and most of them are in Philadelphia which means at minimum a two hour drive at $20, $5 tolls and $4 for parking from their Ocean County home. Massa’s son now has epilepsy “that we think is because of his Chiari and the damage it is causing. It isn’t just Chiari that he suffers from, at 15 months old he was diagnosed with DiGeorge Syndrome which is a chromosomal deletion,” Massa said. “This causes numerous things as well including immune issues that cause Charles to need to go to Childrens Hospital Of Philadelphia monthly for IVIG therapy.

She added that after surgery “we will need funds for us to be out of work and in California. Massa expressed thanks to those that have supported the family’s effort. “This is our last option and we do not know what else to do.

In the old days, many Doctors made house calls to patients when the word “specialist” did not exist. It is extremely rare to see this in the 21st Century, however, there are several select companies that do offer this service such as Visiting Nurses Association (VNA) and/or similar groups. Concierge services are now being offered by certain physician groups whereby you pay an “upfront” fee and you have a more direct channel to the Doctor when you need them. Concierge services clearly exist with Primary Care Physician’s, Internal Medicine, Podiatry, Optometry, Dental, and Veterinary practices. These practices are trying to provide an “exceptional service package” and you pay extra for these services. Garden State Hearing & Balance Center (GSHBC) realizes the importance of extending their hearing care services outside of our three office locations (Toms River, Manahawkin, & Whiting). For example, there are hundreds of residents living in continuing care facilities such as Crestwood Manor, Harrogate, The Pines at Whiting and many others who cannot get out to see their doctors. Many of these facilities bring the healthcare professional to the resident. GSHBC provides these services to many of these facilities, and trust me, the residents are so grateful! Granted, many residents are independent enough
to hire transportation to see their doctors, however, it can become quite expensive to do so. Thus, these continuing care facilities make an effort as part as their value proposition to offer as many on-site healthcare services as possible to their residents. Equally important…there are many folks that are non-ambulatory and find it extremely difficult to leave their home. Many of them are wheel chair bound, on 24/7 oxygen due to COPD and/or have significant health issues. Hearing loss is very prevalent in this type of population and these folks need our help as well. GSHBC has never advertised or promoted this service, even though we have been making “house calls” for over 25 years. In my opinion, there is an increasing need for hearing care services to these specific individuals because our population is living longer and longer. We believe that everyone’s quality of life can be enhanced with improved hearing. We also know that untreated hearing loss in these populations increase the risk of cognitive decline, memory loss, and social isolation. If you know of someone who is suffering from hearing loss and does not have the transportation means to see us, we will be happy to come to their home or place of residence. For additional information, please feel to speak to Dr. Izzy Kirsh at 732-818-3610 or email to: ikirsh@ gardenstatehearing.com.
His offices are in Toms River, Whiting (expanded hours!), and Manahawkin. He can be reached at 732276-1011 or via Web site at gardenstatehearing.com. Dr. Izzy & Staff gives Retirement Community Talks!

H ERE ’ S T O Y OUR H EALTH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
Popular Heartburn Medicine May Be Laced With NDMA By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. The news broke on September 13, with a statement from the Dr. Janet Woodcock, the Director at the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. This is a day that will go down in history. According to the statement, “The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has learned that some ranitidine medicines, including some products commonly known as the brand-name drug Zantac, contain a nitrosamine impurity called N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) at low levels. NDMA is classified as a probable human carcinogen (a substance that could cause cancer) based on results from laboratory tests. NDMA is a known environmental contaminant and found in water and foods, including meats, dairy products, and vegetables.” Part of how it hurts us is by rendering inactive two powerful antioxidant ‘cleansing’ enzymes in the liver. The first one being catalase, and the second one being glutathione. These two enzymes are used to neutralize poisons in the body. NDMA is hepatotoxic! We get into NDMA when we eat bacon and hot dogs, cold-cuts and cured meats. It’s in cheese, beer and chewing tobacco. But in our stomach medicine?! The FDA is not issuing a drug recall and advising that everyone remain on their medication. In other words, they don’t want you to panic and stop taking it during their evaluation. Traces of this carcinogen were found by a Connecticut lab in both the brand name drug, and a few generic samples that were tested. They did not test every single brand that you see on the shelves. They did not yet publicly name the brands that are
tainted. But there was enough found for the FDA to start warning consumers. When most people think of a generic drug, they think that there is just one generic maker of that drug. But that’s not true at all. There are dozens of manufacturers of the generic version called “ranitidine.” Not all of the generic makers have this NDMA problem. So again, finding NDMA in a handful of samples does not mean that every single generic version of ranitidine is contaminated. As for other H2 receptor antagonists in the same category as ranitidine, there is nothing to be worried about yet: Cimetidine (Tagamet), famotidine (Pepcid) and nizatidine (Axid). By the way, this isn’t the first problem with NDMA. In June 2019, the FDA issued a recall for the blood pressure drug called losartan “over small amounts of carcinogen.” One more thing regarding the PPI drugs such as Prilosec (omeprazole), Nexium (esomeprazole) and Prevacid (lansoprazole). These medications have not been evaluated or found to be contaminated with any NDMA. But if you take them, just support yourself with a good magnesium supplement because they are strong drug muggers. According to the Toxicology Data Network, some symptoms that might occur if you’re poisoned with NDMA include nausea/vomiting, cramps, diarrhea, liver damage, enlarged liver, fatigue, headache and kidney problems. If you are not dependent on your heartburn medicine, consider some natural alternatives that could suppress acid and/or coat and soothe your stomach. I have those articles posted at my website to help you.

My Husband Is Addicted To Football!
Dear Joel, My husband and I had a really great summer. We took a nice vacation at the beach and made the most out of every weekend but now that the summer sun is fading away, I have to face a lonely life.

Football season is a great
time to try out new recipes, catch up some of your favorite shows, slip out for some holiday shopping, clean out the garage, and lots more activities, like crafts. Why not make a scrap book of your wonderful summer together? He gave you lots of his time and focus in the summer.

Inside The Law Time To Review Your Will
Robert C. Shea Esq.
By: Marc S. Galella, Esq. and Robert C. Shea, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates
The beginning of a New Year is a good time to review your estate planning documents. Let’s start with your Last Will and Testament. Have you reviewed it in the last year? If not, now is a good time. First, look at the persons who you have appointed as your executor, guardian and trustee. Are those persons still capable of acting in that capacity? Are they still willing to act? Is there any reason why you would not want them to act under your Will? Review the specific bequests and devises in your Will. This is the part of the Will where you leave specific items, real estate or money to specific persons. Are those persons still worthy of receiving those assets? Are there additional persons that you want add to your Will? Do you still own the items identified in your Will? Are there any other items that you want to leave to specific persons? Review the persons named in your Will who are receiving the remainder of your estate. Are those persons still deserving of your assets? If you are leaving your estate in different percentages to your beneficiaries, are those percentages still what you want? Are they any other persons who you want to add to your Will? Are any of the persons named in your Will incapacitated or receiving governmental benefits? Perhaps the assets left to those
persons are best left in a trust. Review your Power of Attorney. Are the Marc S. Galella Esq. persons you appointed in that document still capable of acting for you? Do they still want to act on your behalf? Are there other persons who you want to name to act for you? Is there any reason why a person that you named should no longer act for you? Do you have a Power of Attorney? Maybe you did not need one the last time you prepared a Will, but maybe you should consider preparing one now. Review your Living Will. Ask yourself the same questions as your Power of Attorney. Has there been any changes in your medical conditions that would change the medical directives in your current Living Will? If after reviewing your current estate planning documents you feel that they should be changed, now is the time to discuss your concerns with an estate planning attorney. The attorneys at R. C. Shea and Associates have over 100 combined years of preparing estate planning documents. Call us to schedule an appointment to review your documents with you.

Restaurants from all over will come together to compete for champion titles in the white, red, and creative chowder categories. Attendees that purchase a ticket can enjoy a taste testing of all the unique and classic chowder selections. In 2018, the top three winners for red, white and creative chowders went to: Lefty’s Tavern for the best red (Manhat-
tan) chowder, Howard’s Restaurant for the best white clam chowder, and Blue Water Cafe for the best creative chowder. A few honorable mentions were awarded as well, including the WooHoo who won for most unique chowder for their clam chowder ice cream. Also recognized were: Rookie of the Year: Nancy’s Barn Ireland. Owner Kieran Doherty and his culinary team traveled all the way from Ireland just to participate in LBI’s 30th annual Chowderfest cook-off.

Ocean County residents in particular are needed to fill these jobs and help ensure a complete and accurate count in the County,” said Ocean County Freeholder Joseph H. Vicari, who serves as liaison to the 2020 Census. “From neighborhood canvassers to office workers, the U.S. Census is hiring people to make certain a complete count is taken in 2020.” These temporary positions can include census takers, recruiting assistants, office staff, and supervisory staff. The 2020 Census will help to determine New Jersey’s representation in the US House of Representatives, as well as direct how over $675 billion in federal funds are distributed to the states annually for Medicaid, Pell Grants, school lunch programs, transit and more. “These jobs are your chance to play a part in history and help ensure that everyone in your community is counted,” said Vicari. “This will ensure our schools, hospitals, and businesses all receive the federal funding needed to best serve you.” If you’re interested in applying, visit 2020census.gov/en/jobs. To be eligible for a 2020 Census job, you must: • Be at least 18 years old. • Have a valid Social Security number. • Be a U.S. citizen. • Have a valid email address. • Complete an application and answer assessment questions. (Some assessment questions are available in Spanish. However, an English proficiency test may also be required.)
• Be registered with the Selective Service System or have a qualifying exemption, if you are a male born after Dec. 31, 1959. • Pass a Census-performed criminal background check and a review of criminal records, including fingerprinting. • Commit to completing training. • Be available to work flexible hours, which can include days, evenings, and/or weekends. Many of the 2020 Census positions do require you to have access to a vehicle as well as possess a valid driver’s license, unless public transportation is readily available. You must also have access to a computer with internet and an email account. “These temporary positions come with competitive wages, weekly paychecks, flexible hours and paid training,” Vicari said. “They are available to anyone that can meet the requirements.” Ocean County Freeholder Director Virginia E. Haines added that the Census Bureau is committed to hiring people to work in the area where they live. “Working where you live is a benefit to the Census Bureau,” Haines said. “You have a good working knowledge of your area and that is a helpful advantage.” According to the Census Bureau, if you are employed elsewhere, your current job must be compatible with Census Bureau employment and not create conflicts of interest. These will be reviewed on a caseby-case basis. Also, you must not engage in any partisan political activity while on duty. The Census Bureau is an equal opportunity employer. If you are a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. armed forces and were separated under honorable conditions, you may be eligible for veterans’ preference. For more information, contact your area census office at 1-855-JOB-2020 (1-855562-2020) and select option 3. You may also use the Federal Relay Service at 1-800-8778339 for TTY/ASCII.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of sept 28 - OCt 4 By Jeraldine Saunders
ARIES (March 21-April 19): If you keep plugging away, you’ll get somewhere. Changing your tactics or your habits might be counterproductive in the upcoming week. If you concentrate and exercise self-discipline, you’ll do better. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): When it seems that all you do is work, work, work, it’s good to know that at least you have co-workers who offer some social contact on the job. Take advantage of the brief, happy diversions when they occur. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): It isn’t enough to have soaring imagination and the capacity to dream. You may want to harness a vision and apply your creative ideas to a project or pet hobby in a practical way during the week ahead. CANCER (June 21-July 22): A partner may be more concerned with practical affairs or a job that needs to be done than with cuddling and entertainment. In the week ahead, you may want to focus on being as supportive as possible. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Your purposefulness could put you in the driver’s seat. If you work hard to complete a job, you might outshine the competition. Avoid impulsive changes that can create misunderstandings later this week. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You have no doubt that drive and determination will get it done. Someone else may have the imaginative and delightful concepts, but you have the self-discipline to turn those ideas into a solid reality.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Your serious side may emerge in the week ahead, so take advantage of it: Keep busy with useful tasks. Don’t turn a mild misunderstanding into something it isn’t or let a sudden change undermine your confidence. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Spend time with yourself rather than others and bathe in thoughtful retrospection. There may be a lesson you can learn from your past experiences. Put social ambitions on the back burner this week. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You are in a cycle of self-improvement and growth. Repeating a positive mantra will boost your spirits if anything goes wrong in the week ahead. You can always find something positive to say and do. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): If everything is organized, you will be more efficient. Prioritize tasks so that your life becomes a smooth-running machine. You may hit a stone wall if you try to change the terms of a relationship in the week ahead. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Expect to pay your own way. Your ability to intuitively understand how to best use your money is at a high point. As the week progresses you may need to call upon your coping skills to deal with erratic people. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You like to escape from the ordinary and may find plenty of opportunities to do so in the upcoming week. Look for new and interesting ways to bring some fun into your exercise routine.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen Welcome Autumn With The French Version Of An American Favorite By Wolfgang Puck
More even than deepest winter, I always think of autumn as soup weather. The very fact that it seems like a transitional season with still summery days gradually giving way to cool weather and then, eventually, the first rains or snows suits it to all kinds of different soups, from light broths to robust bean concoctions. Not to mention the fact that the shorter days seem to welcome the comfort offered by delicious soup simmering on the stovetop. So with the first day of autumn falling on Sept. 23rd, it seems like a perfect time to share with you one of a favorite soup my mother and grandmother once made for me and that I now love to make for my wife and sons. At first glance, it might reminder you of chicken soup with noodles, one of the all-time great comfort foods. But closer inspection, and a first spoonful, will reveal something deliciously different. Instead of the usual noodles - which call for mixing, rolling, and cutting egg-enriched dough - this recipe features ribbons of crepes flecked with chopped fresh herbs. They’re so easy to make that you can mix their batter and cook them close to the last minute. But you can also prepare them well in advance, refrigerating them for up to five days or freezing them (stacked between sheets of waxed paper in an airtight bag) and then thawing them in the refrigerator overnight before cutting into ribbons. As for the soup itself, it’s a classic bouillon - the French term for a simple, straightforward broth. To make it, you’ll need time to simmer a whole chicken along with aromatic vegetables and the bundle of cheesecloth-enclosed fresh herbs known as a bouquet garni. The cooked chicken meat, shredded after removing the skin and bones, becomes an essential garnish for the final soup, along with freshly simmered vegetable julienne and the ribbons of crepe. You can even make the bouillon ahead of time, too, refrigerating up in a covered container for up to 4 days. Before reheating it, use a large spoon to carefully remove any fat you’ll find congealed on its surface. It’s possible, also, to prepare the soup even more simply. If you like, make a batch about half the size, starting with good-quality canned chicken broth that you simmer for 30 minutes or so with some aromatic vegetables and a bouquet garni to enhance its flavor. Meanwhile, separately simmer some boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs in a little more broth or water along with fresh herbs; then, when done, drain the meat, let it cool, and shred it. Make the crepes as usual, and you’ll have a super-quick version of the same comforting, home-style soup, perfect for the autumn days ahead. CHICKEN BOUILLON WITH CHICKEN, HERB CREPES, AND JULIENNED VEGETABLES Makes 4 to 5 quarts (4 to 5 l), 8 to 12 servings BOUILLON 1/4 cup (60 ml) extra-virgin olive oil 2 medium yellow onions, peeled, trimmed, and thinly sliced 2 medium carrots, peeled, trimmed, and cut into 1/2-inch (12-mm) pieces 2 large celery stalks, trimmed and cut into 1-inch (2.5-cm) pieces 1 large leek, halved lengthwise, washed, trimmed, and cut into 1-inch (2.5-cm) pieces 1 large parsnip, peeled, trimmed, and cut into 1/2 inch (12-mm) pieces
1/2 cup (125 ml) peeled and chopped garlic cloves 1/2 cup (125 ml) peeled and thinly sliced shallots 1/2 bunch fresh Italian parsley 5 sprigs fresh thyme 2 bay leaves 5 whole cloves, crushed 1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns 1 whole chicken, 3 to 4 pounds (1.5 to 2 kg), wrapped in cheesecloth 5 to 6 quarts (5 to 6 l) low-sodium canned chicken stock 2 to 3 tablespoons kosher salt Freshly ground white pepper 2 to 3 tablespoons sugar GARNISHES 1 cup (250 ml) each julienned carrots, leek, and celery Herb Crepes (recipe follows), trimmed into squares and cut into 1/4-inch (6-mm) strips 1/4 cup (60 ml) minced fresh chives In a 12-quart (12-l) stockpot, heat the oil over high heat. Add the onions, carrots, celery, leeks, parsnips, garlic, and shallots. Sauté, stirring frequently, until tender but not yet browned, 7 to 10 minutes. With cheesecloth and kitchen string, tie the parsley, thyme, bay leaves, cloves, and peppercorns into a secure bundle. Add to the pot. Add the chicken, stock, salt, and sugar. Bring to a boil, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface. Reduce the heat and simmer for 2 hours. Carefully remove the chicken to a platter. When it is cool enough to handle, unwrap it, discard the skin, and remove the meat from the bones. Shred the meat into strips 1/4 inch by 2 inches (6 mm by 5 cm). Refrigerate in a covered bowl. Pour the bouillon through a fine strainer over a large mixing bowl. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and sugar. To serve, reheat the bouillon in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chicken strips and julienned vegetables and simmer for 1 minute. Add the crepe strips and simmer for 1 minute. Ladle into soup bowls and garnish with chives. Serve immediately. HERB CREPES Makes about 24 crepes, 9 inches (22.5-cm) each 3 cups (750 ml) milk 2/3 cup (165 ml) heavy cream 1 1/3 cups (335 ml) all-purpose flour 1/4 cup (60 ml) minced fresh chervil leaves 1/4 cup (60 ml) minced fresh Italian parsley leaves 1/4 cup (60 ml) minced fresh chives 4 eggs, at room temperature 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter 1 teaspoon kosher salt Freshly ground white pepper Put all the ingredients in a food processor and process until well blended. Transfer to a medium bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Heat a 10 1/2-inch (26.25-cm) nonstick sauté pan over medium heat. Pour in 1 1/2 ounces (45 ml) batter and swirl to cover the bottom. Cook until the top begins to dry and the bottom is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip with a spatula and brown the other side about 1 minute. Remove from the pan to a platter to cool. Stack the cooled crepes on a plate, cover, and refrigerate until ready to use.
