Cell Tower Would Add Service To Major Road

Community News!

Dear Pharmacist

FOR BREAKING NEWS

By Chris Lundy MANCHESTER – Have you ever been on a long, country road and your cell phone drops the call? There are dead zones throughout the area where there are no cell towers close enough to provide service. It often happens on winding county and state highways with trees on both sides. And that’s the issue: there are trees on both sides, and not enough houses to necessitate having a cell tower. Manchester officials discussed a future tower that will be on an acre of land near Crestwoods Village VI, by the intersection between Route 530 and Congasia Road. “If you go down that road, there’s a five mile line where your call definitely will get dropped,” Mayor Kenneth Palmer said. “We’ve been looking to get this done for years.” Under an agreement, a cell company will rent the land from the township. The company will also be responsible for the construction and maintenance of the tower, he said. There have been some prerequisites to getting it built, Councilman Sam Fusaro said. These included creating a sight triangle that the county wanted to make sure the traffic will be safe at the intersection with Route 530, since that is a county road. The Township Council authorized an easement and roadway dedication to the county at the most recent meeting in order to fulfill that requirement. Additionally, the New Jersey Pinelands Commissions had to review the situation. The cell company would still have to come before the township to get their final plan approved, he said. The cell service was so bad, that even residents were offering land to have a tower built, he added.

DIRECT CREMATION $1695 Includes: arrangement conference, removal from place of death, alternative container Batesville ccbmdfc, transfer to crematory, crematory fee

“We are dedicated to exceeding expectations and delivering a standard of service that is 100% guaranteed.”

Continued From Page 1 Ocean County Sheriff’s Office and the Soroptimist International of Toms River. Ocean County Freeholder Director Virginia E. Haines and Freeholder Gary Quinn presented a proclamation to Providence House during the ceremony and during her remarks, Haines shared her own story. “I was a victim when I was 25 years old. I told no one. I didn’t let anyone know until after it was happening but I did leave. I was not hospitalized and thank God I was not killed but it can happen to anyone,” she said. “No matter who you are, where are you live or your background, you can be a victim. When that happens you can call someone, be it a neighbor or a support agency or someone else but you can always find a way out,” Haines said. The event was held to raise awareness of the issue of domestic violence and connect residents with local resources to help end the violence in their lives. Both Haines and Ocean County Prosecutor

The Manchester Times, October 26, 2019, Page 5 Bradley D. Billhimer reviewed the history of the Silent Witness Project which began in 1990 when an ad hoc group of women artists and writers, upset about the growing number of women in Minnesota being murdered by their partners or acquaintances, joined together with several other women’s organizations to form Arts Action Against Domestic Violence. “While you are here take the time to look at the silent witnesses in the circle here,” Billhimer said referring to the life sized red and blue wooden figures which featured information on a specific fatal incident of domestic violence that included the name of the victim, their town, date and a brief synopsis of that murder. Billhimer noted that the women who founded the movement felt an urgency to do something that would speak out against the escalating domestic violence in their state and set out to create something that would commemorate the lives of the 26 women whose lives had been taken in 1990 as a result of domestic violence. “It now exists in every state and 23 other countries. The goal of those women in Minnesota was to promote education, raise

awareness, reduce the stigma and connect people with resources. There are a number of resources available. It doesn’t discriminate based on race, religion, ethnicity. It effects all of us,” Billhimer said. “There is no reason for you to suffer in silence. There are people here that can help you,” he said. “I always thought it was important to talk to students and young people who are at a vulnerable age so that they can see the signs. The hardest thing for a victim of domestic violence is to understand the cycle and to realize that they may be in it. It is so easy for us to say ‘why doesn’t someone just leave.’ That is the hardest thing to do if you don’t realize you are in it.” Laurie Toole, program supervisor for Providence House Domestic Violence Services of Catholic Charities served as master of ceremonies. She said the day’s event was dedicated in memory of Ron Gering, who recently died of cancer, for his 45 years of service to Catholic Charities, Diocese of Trenton. “Ron was a gentle man who cared deeply about the people we serve, leading an agency work group that brought a trauma informed

approach to our work. Ron ensured that those who were voiceless would be given a voice through the work of Catholic Charities. We know Ron would be proud by the work being done to shine light on the issue of domestic violence,” Toole said. “Having a voice is especially important for victims of domestic violence. For a victim of domestic violence, choosing to speak out and be heard can often be very dangerous and unsafe. More often than not it takes an immense amount of courage,” she said. “We work continuously at Providence House to provide a safe place for victims to choose courage and we are so fortunate that so many of you in the community do the same.” The ceremony included performances by the Ocean County Vocational Technical School Performing Arts Academy while the Ocean County Sheriff’s Department Honor Guard opened the program with presentation of colors. Pastor Tom Carrano of New Beginnings Christian Church provided the invocation. For information about Providence House and its domestic violence support services call 732-350-2120.

respective service caps. The idea for the Veterans Recognition Ceremony came about 16 years ago when MTHS teacher Jill Ocone was the Student Government Association adviser. “We used to have off on Veterans Day, and I got upset over seeing a commercial for a Veterans Day furniture sale. I believed that our veterans deserved better,

so SGA started the ceremony when I was adviser,” Ocone told The Manchester Times during the 2018 ceremony. Thus the annual ceremony was born. Ocone believes it is our duty to show gratitude to those who serve and served our country. Special recognition is also shown to those many men and women who didn’t come home.

Registration for the ceremony begins at 1:40 p.m. The ceremony begins at 2 p.m., feat uring the annual Hawks Hall of Honor Roll Call, Recognition of Veterans in Attendance, and light refreshments. For more infor mation, contact Jill Ocone at 732- 657-2121 or jocone@ mtschools.org.

Ramsay:

Continued From Page 4 greet with the famous chef for his daughter. The post read: “she is freaking out because he is in town filming. She is a HUGE fan! Obsessed is more like it! Please keep sharing this until she meets him. She wanted to use her Make A Wish to meet him. Please help this message find a way to Gordon Ramsay! She is a great kid and Gordon Ramsay is her

idol! She’d even be happy with a phone call from him. Her room has a cardboard cut out of Gordon…she LOVES him. Please help a little girl with cancer get her wish!” In the post, a photo shows 12-year-old Kallista rocking her short pixie cut with blond on top, somewhat mirroring Ramsay’s own signature cut, holding a sign that says “Cancer Can Suck It.” Less than 24 hours after the post went up, Flores stood next to Ramsay at Kallista’s

school, preparing the surprise of her life. “This fine individual right here is actually at my daughter’s school,” began Flores, standing next to Ramsay in the video. “To be here in Toms River in between shoots…I’m just absolutely panicking,” said Ramsay, joking about his own poor performance record at school as a kid. Ramsay was in Toms River filming an episode of his show “Gordon Ramsay’s 24 Hours to Hell and Back” at Caneda’s White Rooster.

How To Help Kallista’s treatment costs about $1,100 a month. The fundraising page is still active at gofundme.com/f/teamkallista “I can’t wait to meet her,” he added. Flores provided Ramsay with a little bit of background on Kallista’s illness, stating that she was diagnosed last May and now has one year of treatment left to go. She is now in what is considered the maintenance phase in treating B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, her father said in a later interview. Moments before Kallista came through the door, her father noted “There’s going to be a lot of tears.” His prediction was right. As Kallista rounded the corner and saw Ramsay, she tossed her belongings to the ground and broke into sobs of pure excitement and surprise before running straight to Ramsay for a big hug. “When I see strong girls like you, having three of my own…you inspire me,” Ramsay told her. Between happy tears and jokes about music class, Ramsay managed to make the surprise even better with some macaroons, cake, and cupcakes. Although, he admitted he did not make them himself. He had picked them up at Confections of a Rock$tar in Asbury Park. Flores added that watching Ramsay’s shows “got her through her cancer treatment.” “That’s all she did the whole four months she was in the hospital, we watched cooking show after cooking show,” he added. The pair shared a macaroon and Ramsay provided Kallista with a bit of inspirational advice: “You are a strong winner, remember that,” he said. Ramsay left off with a promise to keep in touch. Kallista responded “Yes please.” The chef had another surprise for the family. That night, Flores received an email that his daughter’s GoFundMe (gofundme. com/f/teamkallista) had reached its goal. That was impossible, he thought, because it was so far away. He checked and sure enough, one donation put it over the top. Ramsay had donated $10,133, matching the exact amount that was in there at the time. Flores said he gathered the family together in a hug and everyone started crying. This kind of money is incredibly important. Kallista’s co-pay is just under $1,100 a month. You read that correctly: $1,100 every month. That’s like having an additional mortgage payment. Another example of how expensive it is to get sick: her hospital bill was once $4.2 million. Insurance took care of most of that, but the fact that the family was still responsible for $25,000 was adding insult to injury. The first prescription they ever picked up cost $643. That night, she crashed as the excitement died down and the steroids and the chemo kicked in, but she perked up again when she realized that Ramsay started following her on Instagram. “If there was ever a kid who deserved to meet her idol, it’s her,” he said. “She’s an inspiration for other kids with cancer that their dreams can come true.”

KNEE PAIN? Grinding, popping, difficulty walking or going up and down the stairs, bone-on-bone pain… Does any of this sound familiar?

There’s no one single answer to all knee pain, especially when every person is different. The truth is, it is impossible to know what kind of treatment would be effective until your case is examined. Only then can medical professionals determine what would be best for you. People suffering from knee pain often try a number of potential solutions before finding relief.

At Monmouth Pain & Rehabilitation, there are no cookie cutter plans. With so many different services available in one facility, there are a number of possibilities and different combinations of treatments that can be customized to each patient.

Acupuncture sessions take place in a relaxing setting. A Licensed Acupuncturist will insert tiny needles into incredibly precise points of the body, sending signals to the brain to release neurotransmitters that reduce feelings of pain. These tiny pricks that most patients can hardly feel are awakening your body’s innate ability to relieve pain –all while you get to sit back and relax. Osteoarthritis patients who receive acupuncture regularly may see noticeable improvements in levels of pain and functionality. Acupuncture is especially effective when combined with other treatment methods and may even improve the effects of physical therapy and other modalities.

Letters To The Editor Politicians Must Represent Us All Ocean County is once again in the national news because of an unjust decision by our Freeholders, including current Freeholder Deputy Director John Kelly. Back in 2005, our Freeholders denied the dying wish of a 25-year veteran of the Sheriff’s department, Lt. Laurel Hester, to pass her pension and other survivor benefits to her longtime domestic partner. Although such action was legal under New Jersey state law, John Kelly justified the refusal of survivor benefits based on his personal religious beliefs, arguing it would violate the sanctity of marriage. The injustice of the Freeholder’s decision brought an immediate public outcry, including from Lt. Hester’s fellow officers. The Freeholders ultimately reversed their decision in a 4-0 vote, with John Kelly not present to vote. But this blot on Ocean County’s reputation is a gift that keeps on giving, drawing negative national attention as the subject of an Oscar winning documentary in 2008

and a major motion picture starring Julianne Moore in 2015. And now, a tweet by Julianne Moore to her 850,000+ followers has brought renewed attention to John Kelly and the history of bias in Ocean County. I think it’s time we finally put this sordid history behind us, electing Freeholders who will represent all the citizens of Ocean County. It’s time to clean house. I support Jean Czarkowski and David Wright, leaders of the highest integrity and accomplishment, who are committed to improving the lives of ALL Ocean County residents. I’ll be voting for Jean and David in November. Nancy Caira Waretown

the Township Council, and the Berkeley Township staff in general for the fantastic recreational setup we are able to enjoy in the township. For starters, the new turf field at Veterans Park is a welcome addition for the community. It proves to be an efficient and safe place for the Berkeley soccer and football organizations to use during the fall. The field can also be used for lacrosse, which has become a popular youth sport over the years. Also at Veterans, the softball field has been updated with a new safety fence, lighting, a scoreboard. I’ve mentioned a lot about Veterans Park, but the partnership with former Major League Pitcher Al Leiter that fixed up and would later become the Leiter Family Baseball Park was tremendous. When spectators from other towns come here to play, they seem envious of what we have here. These kinds of projects don’t happen overnight - they take significant time, management, and focused leadership to complete. That is a testament to the commitment to provide first-rate facilities and services by Mayor Amato and the Council. There are other great recreational opportunities to mention. Mayor Amato and the Council worked with the late Ocean County Freeholder, John Bartlett, to rebuild Berkeley Island County Park that includes a water spray park to help keep cool on hot summer days. The rebuilt Butler Beach with a new playground, as well as a fishing and crabbing pier was exceptionally well done. There are also new playgrounds at Dudley Park and Mastapeter Park at Amherst. The new skate park and inclusive merry-goround at Veterans provides

Letters The Editor our children with evenTo more from any American, much what they were here in Toms opportunities. All of these projects I mention came while Berkeley Township enjoys the second-lowest taxes in Ocean County! The vision and leadership to provide our children with so many wonderful opportunities has earned Mayor Amato and his team my vote! Please join me November 5th in voting Column A for the Amato Team! Michelle Tarantino Berkeley

Why Is Trump Above The Law? It’s time - past time - to open a formal impeachment inquiry. One hundred and thirty members of the House have already come out in support. I want to know why the remaining members (including my member of Congress *), have yet to come on board. Democrats have had control of the House of Representatives since the beginning of the year and still have yet to hold Trump accountable for his criminal conduct. In my opinion, time’s up. Trump may lie to the American people, but the evidence does not. Mueller’s report found over a hundred secret communications between Trump’s team and Russia or individuals tied to Russia. It found that Trump’s own campaign chairman gave polling data to a former Russian intelligence officer. It outlined at least 10 occasions in which Trump obstructed justice, which is a serious crime, to say the least. If you or I did what Trump did, we’d be in jail. Trump can scream “no collusion” all he wants, but these actions are unacceptable

less from the Commander in Chief who is tasked with protecting our national security. It’s imperative for our representatives to support a formal impeachment inquiry. Every lawmaker should want to hold Trump accountable for his crimes. We need to send a message that welcoming the help of a foreign government - and obstructing justice to cover it up - will not be tolerated. Kathy Atkins Forked River * Editor’s note: The congressman for Forked River has called for impeachment.

Keep School Spending Down In Lakewood, publicly funded busing to over 130 private schools has nearly bankrupted the school district - requiring tens of millions in state bailouts, year after year. I’m Jeff Dingsor and I believe Toms River School Board’s recent decision to bus students to Lakewood private schools has opened a Pandora’s Box that will have devastating consequences for property taxes and on the quality of education in our public schools. As required by law, the School Board traditionally offered a small transportation stipend to students enrolled in schools outside of the township, and only offered busing to private schools in Toms River. I believe the district’s decision to start busing to 11 private schools in Lakewood establishes a fiscally dangerous precedent, and it must be stopped. Transportation costs in Lakewood are over $30 Million a year, or roughly thirty times

River just a few years ago. The private school busing model hasn’t worked out in Lakewood, and it won’t work here in Toms River either. If elected, I’ll fight to overturn this decision and to prevent an expansion in private school busing. Rising transportation costs are not the only reason I decided to run. Recent State Aid cuts resulted in the elimination of 77 positions, but this School Board still found the money to give the Superintendent his bonus and to increase the salaries of his Assistant Superintendents. We need people on the School Board that will put students and their education ahead of salary increases for administrators. Taxes continue to spiral out of control. In the last five years, school taxes increased by over 21 million dollars. While part of that can be attributed to state aid cuts, this School Board has increased spending by over $11 million in that same five year period.* If elected to the School Board, I’ll put a stop to the wasteful spending that is increasing our taxes, and I’ll fight to make sure we’re getting our fair share from Trenton. Hopefully I can count on you to support me, Jeff Dingsor for School Board. I’ll be in Ballot Position 1. If elected, I’ll represent the taxpayers and students of our community, not special interests or political insiders. If you have any questions or issues you’d like to discuss, please feel free to contact me at (732) 806-1139. Jeff Dingsor Toms River * Editor’s note: These figures could not be independently verified as of press time.

Toms River Police Visit Goddard Students

By Kimberly Bosco TOMS RIVER – The students at the Goddard School on Rte. 70 got a special visit recently from members of the Toms River Police Department as part of Community Helpers month. “Our community’s safety is one of the biggest responsibilities for our local police department. Officers PJ Gambardella, Kevin and Kevin discussed the importance of policemen in our community, as well as, what to be aware of

during Halloween activities this month,” according to the school. Students got to experience the inside of a police car and even sit in the front seat and blow the horn. The officers handed out special sticker badges to all the students to remind them of their own “special powers.”

Did you know that your hearing health has a direct effect on your overall health? Some causes can be natural and others would surprise you. It is important to take an empowered, proactive approach to hearing health during every stage of your life. I would sincerely suggest that you read this column several times and share this information with your friends and family. Risk Factors Hearing loss is about twice as common in people with diabetes compared to those without the disease. Adults with pre-diabetes, whose blood glucose is higher than normal but not high enough for a diabetes diagnosis, have a 30 percent higher rate of hearing loss compared to those with normal blood sugar. Current smokers are 1.69 times more likely, or have a 70 percent higher risk to have hearing loss than nonsmokers. Studies have shown that a healthy cardiovascular system has a positive effect on hearing. Conversely, inadequate blood flow and trauma to the blood vessels of the inner ear can contribute to hearing loss. Hearing Loss In America 1. One in three people over the age of 60 have hearing loss. 2. One in six Baby Boomers (49-68) have hearing loss. 3. One in 14 Generation Xers (37-48) already have hearing loss. 4. One in five teenagers have some type of hearing loss. 5. Hearing aids can reduce the effects of

hearing loss by 50 percent Effects of Hearing Loss on a Patient’s Life Memory and Hearing Loss: Adults with hearing loss are more likely to develop problems thinking and remembering than adults with normal hearing. Degraded hearing may force the brain to devote too much of its energy to processing sound. Adults with hearing loss develop a significant impairment in their cognitive abilities 3.2 years sooner than those with normal hearing. Those with hearing loss experience a 30-40 percent greater decline in thinking abilities compared to their counterparts without hearing loss. Dementia and Hearing Loss: Seniors with hearing loss are significantly more likely to develop dementia over time than those who retain their hearing. Adults with moderate hearing loss are 3 times more likely to develop dementia and those with severe hearing loss are 5 times more likely to develop dementia. Mental Health and Hearing Loss: Hearing loss results in social isolation. Adults with untreated hearing loss tend to withdraw from engaging with family and friends. Adults, 50 and older, with untreated hearing loss are more likely to report depression, anxiety, anger and frustration, emotional instability and paranoia, and are less likely to participate in social activities than those who wear hearing aids. The degree of depression and other emotional or mental health issues also increases with the severity of the hearing loss.

H ERE ’ S T O Y OUR H EALTH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Bernie Sanders Health Incident Diagnosed As Heart Attack By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Would you know right away if you were having a heart attack? Symptoms include a heartburn-like sensation, tightness in your chest/arms. Nausea, throat or jaw pain may occur, as well as fatigue and mild dizziness. Sometimes there’s a cold sweat, but not always. Does this sound like how you feel after pouring too much hot sauce on a large burrito? Like, it’s easy to miss until it gets serious! Last week, the Democratic presidential candidate experienced some chest pain and was hospitalized while working in Las Vegas, Nevada. His campaign events were obviously canceled and later, we would find out that it was a mild heart attack. It strikes someone every 43 seconds. Unbalanced cholesterol might certainly contribute, but there are other deficiencies involved in the making of a heart attack: Vitamin C. Keeping your arteries elastic and bendable is important and that’s where vitamin C can help. It is required for making collagen which keeps your arteries supple and free of cracking. Collagen. There is collagen in your heart, it’s everywhere. Too much glycation of the collagen and too many AGEs causes your arteries to stiffen up. The problem isn’t the collagen, you want that! The problem is the glycation, which is where a glucose molecule binds to something else that’s important in your body (like a protein), and destroys it. Like with arteries, they get stiffer and non-compliant, that’s dangerous. Glycine. This is an amino acid that’s as-

sociated with sleep or with body-building because it helps make creatine, which is an energy-producing compound and the most abundant protein in collagen. There was an interesting 2016 STUDY in the Journal of the American Heart Association which found an inverse relationship with glycine and the heart. The patients with angina were evaluated over 7 years, and those with healthy, normal amounts of glycine had a lower risk of heart attack. CoQ10 and Ubiquinol. Coenzyme Q10 is an essential life-sustaining compound in our body, and our heart would stop beating quickly if we ran out of this. That’s because it’s concentrated in the heart. We make this antioxidant, but it’s depleted by about 100 or more different medications, more than likely one you take! If that’s the case, consider supplementation. Evidence is crystal clear, the lower your CoQ10 levels, the higher the risk for all kinds of problems including heart failure, arrhythmias and heart attack. Garlic. Plaque accumulation will cause a blockage of blood flow, therefore reduced blood supply to the heart, and that’s the mechanism which can cause a heart attack. It’s amazing that garlic has been shown to reduce plaque buildup in arteries. Even statins don’t do that, they just reduce your production of cholesterol in the liver, leaving the arteries and blood vessels just as clogged as they were before. But garlic is like a Dyson with suction power to sweep out plaques in the body. You can cook with it, sprinkle it, or take aged garlic supplements.

Dear Joel

By Joel Markel

Encourage New Experiences Dear Joel, I am concerned about my 23-year-old son. He has been dating his girlfriend for over two years. She breaks up with him repeatedly. It sometimes feels that it happens every other month. I have told him that this girl is not right for him. I have to constantly explain to family and friends why she is at some holiday dinners and not at others. If there is a family wedding, her absences are always noticed. I don’t want him hurt and am tired of how she treats him. He seems to always go back for more punishment. It makes me feel less of him and I don’t like feeling that way. Do you think it’s a good idea to speak with him? Answer: I think that speaking to him is fine. After all, you are a concerned parent. That being said, I want to caution you about your communication style. If your plan is to say that his girlfriend is not right for him, she’s trouble, no good, etc., in all likelihood, you will make the story worse for everyone. He

already knows that you disapprove of her. I can assure you of that. He already hears your voice in his head. What I would do is make suggestions of moving towards new experiences. Have him join a gym, do volunteer work, get a second job. In everything that I mentioned he will be meeting new faces, trying new things and most likely feel better about himself. His self esteem will clearly improve. His girlfriend may find new respect for him as well. Your son is 23 and must make his own choices. If they are the wrong choices, I don’t know of anyone who has always done the right thing. I wish you and your family well. Write to joel@preferredcares.com. His radio show, “Preferred Company” airs on Monday through Friday from 8 to 10 a.m. on preferredradio.com and 1160 & 1310 WOBM-AM

R.C. Shea & Assoc.

Inside The Law Ripped Off? Now What?

Robert C. Shea Esq.

By: Michael J. Deem, Esq. and Robert C. Shea, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates Have you been ripped off by a car dealer, a home improvement contractor or some other business? Remember, there is no such thing as a “free lunch.” Anytime someone tries to sell you something, you should take everything they say with a grain of salt. This is particularly true when you purchase a car, buy a home, hire someone to remodel your house, pay for any other type of goods and/or services, and particularly where you are entering into some type of written agreement. Unfortunately, we live in a society today where some businesses make claims or representations that turn out not to be true or omit to tell you an important item, for example, that an automobile has been in a severe prior accident or a home has a wet basement. Make no mistake, fraud is rampant in New Jersey. The Division of Consumer Affairs reports that the largest source of complaints concern car dealers and home improvement contractors. However there are other dishonest businesses that rip off consumers for small amounts of money – which add up to a lot of profits for the business. When the amount is small, you may think that your damages are too small to hire an attorney and may not be worth the time to do something about it. The New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act Fortunately, New Jersey has a remedy – the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act- is the strongest consumer protection law in the nation. If you have been the victim of a misrepresentation, deception, fraud, false pretense or the omission of an important material fact, you may be entitled to three times your damages plus payment of your attorney’s fees by the defendant business if you have suffered the loss of money. The Consumer Fraud Act covers almost every sale of merchandise and services. The purpose of the Act is to promote honesty and fair dealing in the marketplace. For example, any affirmative misrepresentation by a seller results in liability regardless of whether the representation was made in good faith or negligently. Businesses are presumed to have a superior knowledge of the goods and services that they sell as well as superior knowledge of the laws and regulations that

govern your business. Accordingly, they are strictly liable for committing consumer fraud. Michael J. Deem The purpose of the Act is to encourage private attorneys to represent consumers in disputes that involve small damages otherwise consumers would not be able to obtain representation. The defendant is required to pay the successful consumer’s attorney’s fees and costs. An Ounce Of Prevention Is Worth A Pound Of Cure When you deal with a home-improvement contractor or other seller, try to limit the amount that you make as a down payment. The more money that pay a contractor upfront, the greater the risk they will delay the job, not return to finish the work, or not make corrections. There have been many stories where a contractor took a deposit and never returned to start the job or only did a little work and never returned. When purchasing a used car, you should always get a CARFAX and you should always take the vehicle to your trusted mechanic and have it tested. Make sure that any verbal representations that are made by the dealer are put in writing. Always read the agreement! Many times, the agreements contain paragraphs that limit the liability of the seller, require you to give up consumer protection rights, or say things that are completely opposite from that which the seller has verbally promised. Although “Buyer Beware” is not the law in New Jersey, not reading or understanding the terms of the agreement you sign is no defense—the seller is not required to explain the agreement and you cannot rely on the verbal representations when entering into a written contract. The litigation attorneys at the Law Offices of R.C. Shea & Associates handle most consumer fraud claims on a contingency basis. A contingency means if there is no recovery, there is no fee.

AROUND THE JERSEY SHORE Local Woman Beats Breast Cancer, Uses Her Experience To Help Others

By Kimberly Bosco OCEAN COUNTY – When Maybelline Hicks went to the doctor for help with a simple cold, she left with more than she bargained for. After suffering a bad cold, Hicks had a cough that she ju st cou ld n’t k ick. W hen p r e s c r ipt ion me d ic at ion s failed to do the trick, her doctor suggested an x-ray. In December 2017, Hicks received shocking news: she had breast cancer. “I didn’t believe him. I told him that my mom didn’t die of breast cancer, and that I don’t smoke, I don’t drink or do d r ugs. A nd I had a mammogram in September,” said Hicks, of Lakehu rst, remembering the moment she received the news. Her breast cancer was conf ir med with a needle biopsy by diag nostic radiologist Patrick O’Connor, D.O., at Hackensack Meridian Health Ocean Medical Center (OMC), who then recommended she see a breast surgeon. So Hicks made an appointment with Yolanda Tammaro, M.D. “Any time a patient comes to me with a breast cancer diagnosis, we have a very lengthy discussion regarding all the treatment options,” said Dr. Tammaro, director of breast surgery at OMC and Southern Ocean Medical Center. “She was an excellent candidate for breast conservation surgery, a lumpectomy, and we discussed the treatment that often follows.” Hicks elected to go for ward with the minimally invasive procedure to remove the lesion and some nearby lymph nodes. A few weeks prior to her procedure, Dr. Tammaro used a relatively new device to help her locate the lump during the surgical procedure. She implanted a small ref lector within the lesion, and later, when su rger y began, she used the probe of a small radar monitor to pinpoint the ref lector. “This is more convenient for people who are candidates for this surgery… previously, the morning of surgery, we would have to insert a thin wire into the lesion that would extend outside of the breast. Because this chip can be inserted up to 30 days prior to the procedure, it cuts down the time that the patient has to be inconvenienced for what can be an outpatient procedure,” she explained.

–Photo courtesy Hackensack Meridian Two weeks after the lumpectomy, Maybelline returned to Dr. Tammaro’s office for a partial radiation delivery syst e m . D r. Ta m m a ro i mpla nt e d a balloon in the space where the lesion had been. Tubes from the balloon are connected to a device in the radiation treatment suite. “This delivers radiation f rom the inside out,” said Dr. Tammaro, which is highly targeted, and helps to spare other healthy tissue. Hicks went for treatments twice a day for five days where she was cheered on by Dr. Miler. “That was so signif icant, because you are afraid and you feel like you’re in it all by yourself.” That fear was understandable, but Maybelline didn’t dwell on it for long. “My husband was super supportive,” she said. “Cancer is an ugly disease, but it doesn’t have to be a life sentence.” After enduring the worst of it, Hicks is on the mend and getting back to her old self. She is using her time and her backg rou nd in fashion into helping other women with breast cancer. She is working on a special design for a prettier bra that can accommodate the tubes that trail out of the balloon while it’s in place. “Her optimism contributed to how well she did. Despite her diagnosis, it didn’t change her spirit or the kind of person she is. And now she really wants to help,” said Dr. Tammaro.

24 Dogs, Taken From Hoarder, Soon Up For Adoption

By Chris Lundy STAFFORD – The county has recovered two dozen dogs and puppies from a Manahawkin resident who could no longer care for them all, a representative from the Ocean County Board of Health said. All of the pets, who were described as “sweet and lovable dogs and puppies,” are now being cared for at the Ocean Cou nt y A nimal Facilities in Manahawkin and Jackson. Most of the dogs appear to be in generally good health, according to the Health Department. They will need to be examined by the veterinarian. Before they can be adopted, they need to be spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

The pets were all in one property; the owner was described as a hoarder. “Anytime you have a large volume of dogs or cats coming in at one time like this it can be a bit of an extra load but that’s what the animal facilities are here for and our staff will give these dogs the best of care before finding them permanent loving homes,” said Ocean County Freeholder Gerry P. Little, liaison to the Ocean County Board of Health. “So if you or someone you know are interested in adopting a shelter dog, you may want to seriously consider getting one from this adorable group.” The dogs are a mix of sizes, colors and ages. Most of them are a combination of small mixed breeds, and a few are pup-

pies. There is one bulldog among them. “These dogs will now get the second chance they deserve and make a wonderful family pet,” said Daniel E. Regenye, OCHD Public Health Coordinator. “With shelters across the countr y crowded with homeless animals, the Ocean County Health Department strongly urges anyone seeking to find a new family pet to consider adopting a shelter dog or cat before looking anywhere else.” If a pet owner is feeling overwhelmed with the care of their pets, or the number of pets in their possession, they are encouraged to reach out to their local animal control officer, or area animal rescues for help, Regenye added.

If you’re interested in adopting a shelter pet, the Ocean County Animal Facilities are located at 615 Freemont Street in Jackson and 360 Haywood Road in Manahawkin. Both facilities are open to the public 7 days a week from 1-4 p.m. and until 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday. For more information please call 732-6578086 or 609-978-0127. Readers are also encouraged to visit the Health Department website at ochd. org or follow the Health Department at Twitter@OCpublichealth or like them on Facebook. They have also started a new website at phu2.org to teach that “Public Health is You Too,” sharing help to equip people to take simple steps to improve their health.

What’s New with Seasonal Flu?

• All people 6 months of age and older should get vaccinated against seasonal Flu every year • Children younger than 6 months are at high risk of serious flu illness but are too young to be vaccinated. People who care for them should be vaccinated instead • Vaccination is especially important for pregnant women and people with chronic diseases • The flu vaccine protects against several different flu viruses (strains). Flu vaccines are updated every year to better match the viruses circulating in the public.Getting the flu vaccine cannot give you the flu! The vaccine is made with inactive (killed) virus strains which are not infectious. *DATES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE.

Nutrition and the Aging Population By: Steven Beintema, PTA

Hippocrates once said, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” This statement is as important today as it was 2500 years ago. Advances in technology, social support networks, and advances in medicine have enabled us to live longer than ever. While there are numerous benefits to living longer, it cannot be denied that there is also an increased cost as well. As we grow older, our need for medical care generally increases. It is estimated that caring for an older population will increase healthcare spending approximately 25% by 2030. This article will briefly cover healthy nutrition and its potential to help reduce medical costs and improve quality of life.

Eating healthy is not always easy as we grow older. There are numerous factors at play that may pose barriers to healthy food intake. Over a lifetime we all develop food preferences that can be very hard to change. Along those same lines, eating habits ingrained over years are hard to break. Lack of physical activity decreases our body’s energy needs and our appetite. Illnesses, decreased mobility, problems with oral health, and changes in digestion and absorption of nutrients can make healthy eating even more difficult. It is important for each of us to take an honest, comprehensive look at our eating habits and lifestyle in order to

determine what, if any, changes should be made... and then commit to those changes. As we age, there is a gradual decline in organ function, which can increase the likelihood of developing heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and other chronic illnesses. Research shows that consuming a healthy diet, avoiding tobacco products, and remaining physically active drastically reduces the chance of developing these diseases. The days of the “four basic food groups” are long gone. The US Dept of Agriculture published updated MyPlate guidelines in 2010. These guidelines are designed for all Americans older than age 2. Tufts University developed a “MyPlate for Older Adults” with modifications appropriate for adults age 70 and older (FIGURE 1). Emphasis is placed on nutrient-dense food choices and the importance of fluid balance. It is important to choose adequate amounts of fiber-rich foods, whole grains, and whole fruits and vegetables while avoiding highly refined and processed options. The need for regular physical activity is also depicted as part of the MyPlate for Older Adults. For many older Americans, a diet consisting solely of whole, fresh ingredients is unrealistic. Decreased mobility and limited income are just two factors that may make an entirely fresh diet impossible to maintain. MyPlate for Older Adults includes representations of alternative options including frozen, canned and dried fruits and vegetables. Various fluid options are also shown. If unable to consume the necessary nutrients from foods alone, supplemental nutrients such as calcium, vitamin D, and vitamin B12 may be required. Your journey toward nutritional health should not be made alone but should be a team effort. In order to incorporate changes safely and effectively, it is important to consult with your physician first. Preexisting conditions such as diabetes may require more supervision and monitoring as changes are made. Your pharmacist should make up the third member of your team. Certain foods, herbs, and supplements may have an adverse effect on medications. Your pharmacist can

help you steer clear of any unwanted interactions. No healthy diet would be complete without an emphasis on adequate fluid intake. Adequate hydration is essential for proper organ and joint function. Most of your fluid intake should be from water, but MyPlate also shows coffee, tea, and other beverages as suitable sources in limited amounts. The fact that Americans are living longer is a good thing, however this longevity may come at a price. Each one of us has the power to take charge of our nutritional health, and possibly minimize the negative effects related to aging. So, don’t wait! Consult with your physician and commit to making a change today!

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of oct 26 - nov 1

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): The week ahead can offer opportunities to bring some of your dreams to fruition. Be vigilant about obeying the rules and taking care of shared duties since a partner might feel like they are stuck doing it all. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Your hard work won’t be taken for granted in the week ahead. You might receive more recognition for your achievements than anticipated. Spend some quality time with a loved one and your dreams could come true. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Your logic will come in handy when you are at work or performing a job. You can ensure that your position is secure by being sensitive to subtle hints and gentle reminders. Your partner will offer perceptive ideas this week. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Duty comes first. Get your everyday tasks completed before you head off for the art show, the soccer field or a visit with friends. The first half of the week may be ideal to arrange a consultation with a professional. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You may feel invisible or that you blend in with the scenery during the week ahead. Just because you aren’t the center of attention doesn’t mean that anyone loves you less. Enjoy being part of a comfortable family unit. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Focus on owning things that will provide lasting pleasure and on relationships that withstand the test of time. In the week ahead, your friends will enjoy your imaginative ideas, and you may grow closer to

loved ones. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Place more emphasis on compatibility than combativeness. Enjoy numerous romantic moments in the upcoming week, but don’t attempt to put joint plans into motion when you sense friction may occur. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You may have stars in your eyes in the upcoming week, but that’s a good thing because this helps you look for love in all the right places. Other people may find you more attractive than usual, so make first impressions count. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your upcoming week can be filled with helpful opportunities. Your judgement may be better than usual about financial matters, but you may also be frustrated by a situation that involves a bill. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Even the most dedicated, hardworking individual deserves some time off. Embrace any opportunity to relax or enjoy a little recreation in the upcoming week. Be on the lookout, as an unexpected offer might answer your prayers. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In the week ahead, your home can become a place where you can work on a fascinating hobby or a meeting place for friends and extended family. Your best supporters and advisors are within the family circle. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The first half of the week is a perfect time to meet a romantic partner if you hope to achieve a meeting of the minds as well as the bodies. Someone’s helpful advice can put you on the right path to achieve a key goal.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen A Light, Crisp Salad That Also Hints At Autumn By Wolfgang Puck ASIANPEARSALADWITHYUZU-MISODRESSING Serves 4 YUZU-MISO DRESSING 7 tablespoons white, or sweet, miso 1/3 cup (85 ml) bottled yuzu juice 3 tablespoons Asian-style toasted sesame oil 1 cup (250 ml) canola oil Kosher salt Freshly ground white pepper ASIAN PEAR SALAD 1 large ripe Asian pear 1 bunch curly endive or frisée, large stems removed, leaves torn into small bite-sized pieces 1 bunch watercress, rinsed and dried, large stems discarded, leaves separated into small bite-sized clusters 1 head radicchio, leaves separated and trimmed, cut diagonally into thin julienne strips 2 large scallions, trimmed, white and light-green parts cut diagonally into thin slices, dark-green parts cut lengthwise into very thin strips resembling grass 2 purple or green shiso leaves or fresh Thai basil or regular basil, rolled up and cut crosswise to make thin strips 1/4 cup (60 ml) fresh cilantro leaves 1/2 cup (125 ml) bottled Asian crispy fried shallots, or crispy fried onions 1/2 cup (125 ml) whole roasted cashews 1 tablespoon toasted black sesame seeds, coarsely ground in a clean spice mill or with a mortar and pestle

First, make the Yuzu-Miso Dressing. In a nonreactive mixing bowl, whisk together the miso and yuzu juice. Whisking continuously, drizzle in the sesame oil until fully incorporated. Continue whisking and drizzle in the canola oil to form a thick, smooth dressing. Season to taste with salt and white pepper. Set the dressing aside. For the salad, cut the Asian pear lengthwise into quarters and stem, core, and seed them. With a paring knife, carefully peel each quarter. Insert the medium julienne blade on a mandoline and, carefully moving one quarter at a time lengthwise across the blade, cut the Asian pear into julienne strips. (Keep your fingers away from the cutting surface.) Spread the strips of Asian pear on a double layer of paper towels to absorb excess liquid, but do not press on them. Transfer the Asian pear julienne to a large mixing bowl. Add the curly endive, watercress, radicchio, scallions, shiso or basil, and cilantro leaves. Toss all the ingredients thoroughly. Then, drizzle and toss in enough of the Yuzu-Miso Dressing to coat the ingredients lightly but evenly. To serve the salad, divide the mixture evenly among 4 large chilled serving plates, mounding the salad neatly in the center. Divide the crispy salads evenly among the tops of the salad mounds. Drizzle the remaining dressing evenly over and around the salads. Distribute toasted cashews around the salads. Sprinkle ground black sesame seeds over the salads and around the plates. Serve immediately.
