Local Girl Becomes State Trooper For Her Birthday By Chris Lundy SOUTH TOMS RIVER – Every so often, this newspaper will publish a story about a new officer being sworn in. This story is a little different. This article is about Sophia Colavito, who received a unique gift for her fifth birthday: a State Police uniform made in her size, and made by the same company that does it for the real troopers. Sophia collects police badges, and received them from all over the world – and even further. She actually has a badge from NASA and the International Space Station. She was made an honorary trooper, State Police Col. Patrick Callahan said. The company that makes State Trooper uniforms, Blauer, saw this and decided they wanted to make the uniform. Callahan delivered it to her on her birthday. “She’s a trooper by all (Girl - See Page 6)

Vaccination’s Arrival Brings Hope And Anxiety
By Bob Vosseller OCEAN COUNTY – With coronavirus cases increasing around the state and country, the only bright spot appears to be that vaccinations are on the way. Like those ever ywhere, Ocean County residents are hoping the vaccinations lead to the end of the pandemic. They expressed their thoughts to a JerseyShoreOnline.com reporter outside various local stores. While most didn’t mind talking about the subject, not all wanted to offer up their name. One senior from Toms River said “I’d get it, 100%.” A young wom-
an proclaimed, “I want to get it.” Not all those who posed the question were as optimistic. Jody Lamberti of Seaside Heights commented, “I don’t trust it. I don’t even get a flu shot.” Kristin Waller of Toms R iver said she was usually more cautious about vaccinations but said, “I travel a lot and I couldn’t travel as the airlines are said to be requiring it so I will be getting it.” Joe Andreola also of Toms River, said “I would take it. This situation (the pandemic) though has been blown out of the water. I think (Arrival - See Page 7)

Habitat For Humanity And Vo-Tech Build Homes Together
By Alyssa Riccardi TUCKERTON – Two families are the recipients of brand new homes that are being constructed with help from Habitat for Humanity Southern Ocean chapter volunteers and Ocean County Vo-Tech’s adult education New Home Construction program. The instructor of the vo-tech pro-
gram Chris Sullivan explained how the partnership between Habitat and the vo-tech is unique since it allows hands-on training and the homes that are built are actual, permanent homes. “This is the only program where students build a house and don’t tear it down afterward (Homes - See Page 4)

Continued From Page 1 and put it in a Dumpster,” said Sullivan. The Habitat for Humanity Southern Ocean chapter and Ocean County Vo-Tech’s New Home Construction program have been working together for eight years now. The partnership began after Superstorm Sandy destroyed the homes in the area, and the need for trained, professional construction workers was great and still is. The New Home Construction program works simultaneously with a high school year and it prepares its adult students, both young and old, for construction jobs. “I’ve had a student in his 70s and we usually have some ladies but not his term,” Sullivan noted. Since it’s an adult school, students can come from anywhere in the union. “I had a student from Maryland, but usually they come from all over New Jersey.” “It’s great for any homeowner,” John O’Connell, a student, stated. O’Connell is a retired U.S. Air Force veteran who is taking the course since he wants to build his own house. “I get to learn the correct way to build things and how they should be built. I’m lucky in that I have the time to do this. My wife has noticed that I’m always happy when I get home from the job.” Sullivan discussed how the program in-
cludes job placement and has placed every participant who has wanted placement. Since September, volunteers and participants from the program have been preparing the site for the two houses on Marshall Avenue in Tuckerton. The one house constructed by Vo-Tech should be ready by early June, while the four-bedroom family home built by Habitat’s volunteers may be finished before June. “It’s a misnomer that Habitat gives away houses,” said Sullivan. “Depending on the family, they put up to 600 hours of sweat equity into the house and then they get a mortgage, but it’s a no-interest mortgage.” On a recent Thursday, 14 students were at the site working on a three-bedroom home. Some students were on the roof, putting in rafters, while others were on the ground, cutting sheathing to nail on the rafters. According to Sullivan, students must first take a 10-hour OSHA class on safety before doing any on-site construction. In this class they learn CPR, AED preparedness and hand tool and power tool training which are required before coming on the site. “It’s a great program and we’ve had great success,” said Sullivan. “We were doing a lot of building in Stafford Township, but now they have met their affordable housing quota so now we are building in Tuckerton to help them meet theirs.”

Eventually, doctors found a tumor suppressing the optic nerve, and it had spread to her spine and the lining of her brain. “She has the courage, perseverance, and strength of a Jersey Trooper,” Callahan said. “And I would just caution the folks of South Toms River. Be mindful of the posted speed limit. She’s on the job.” Callahan talked about her journey during one of Gov. Phil Murphy’s press conferences on the coronavirus. “God bless that
Nurse:
MELANOMA OF THE EYE Although melanoma occurs most often on the skin, it can develop in the eye since melanoma develops in the cells that produce “melanin,” the pigment that gives both skin and eyes their color. Eye melanoma most commonly develops in the “uvea,” the vascular layer of the eye sandwiched between the retina and the white of the eye (sclera). Also known as “uveal melanoma,” this type of cancer can occur in the front part of the uvea (iris and ciliary body) or in the rear portion of the uvea (choroids layer). While “primary eye cancer” starts in the eye, 90 percent of melanomas start in the skin, which means they are “secondary eye cancer.” It is not clear why eye melanomas develop. People born with certain growths in or on the eye, as well as those with lighter colored eyes, are at a greater risk for developing ocular melanoma. If your ophthalmologist suspects that you have ocular melanoma, he or she may recommend more tests. To learn more or to schedule an appointment, please call SUSSKIND & ALMALLAH EYE ASSOCIATES at 732-349-5622.

Continued From Page 1 it was a historic occasion. She clapped and smiled, becoming the first healthcare worker in New Jersey to receive the COVID-19 vaccine on December 14. She told Governor Phil Murphy, colleag ues and hospital administ rators that “it is like the light at the end of the tunnel” as everyone present wished her a happy 56th birthday and congratulated her. “It is my birthday today. This is a great way to celebrate my birthday,” Beniquez said. “I am very excited, very excited. I couldn’t wait for this moment to hit the country and New Jersey. I am so happy.” University Hospital, based in Newark, was one of six in the state to receive the Pfizer vaccine that day. An additional 53 hospitals in the state were expected to receive their supply later in the week. The hospital lost 11 staff members to COVID-19. It treated more than 1,200 coronavirus patients, 269 of whom died.

“This is a big day,” the governor said. The shipments were part of the first wave Operation Warp Speed, a partnership with the federal government that helped bring the vaccines to healthcare facilities across the U.S. Benitez’s immunization marks the first of millions to come in the next six months for New Jersey residents, starting with healthcare workers. The governor said, “we know this isn’t the end, we are witnessing, at the least, a glimmer of hope.”. The coronavirus has claimed lives of more than 300,000 people in the nation since March. The governor and health officials noted that the state will be facing some difficult months ahead with the second wave of the pandemic but through efforts of front-line health care workers there will be a higher degree of confidence in their own protection.” “We’ll see you in 21 days,” a colleague joked noting that the second of the two doses of the vaccine would need to be taken at that time.

Continued From Page 1 there is more to this than just the coronavirus.” Andreola said he was suspicious of certain aspects of the pandemic lockdown but was happy that vaccines would soon be available to the public. Veronica Laureigh, a resident of Lacey who serves as the township’s clerk/business administrator said, “I will definitely take it when it is available.” Garden State residents have been told not to leave the state. “Just don’t travel. No one should be traveling out of state beyond what is essential for your daily life,” Governor Phil Murphy said. He and health officials around New Jersey renewed their call for everyone to maintain social distancing, wear their face masks and to frequently wash their hands. The second wave of COVID-19 infections continue hitting the population of New Jersey and the only way to combat it is for people to limit transmission of the virus. While the vaccine has arrived in some areas to be distributed to first responders and at-risk residents, it will take several months for millions of people to become vaccinated. Earlier this month the governor signed an executive order that changes the state’s immunization information system from an opt-in to an optout system for the coronavirus vaccine. No one will be forced to take the vaccine according to the Governor, but this order will make it more efficient for those who seek to be vaccinated. Murphy added this would also assist people to get the same sourced vaccine for their second doses. Thirty days following the ongoing public health emergency end, people can opt back out of the program, Governor Murphy said. He noted that several hospitals in the state are preparing to receive around 76,000 does of the Pfizer vaccine. The Federal Drug Administration’s emergency approval was recently granted. The first round of vaccinations won’t cause the
The Berkeley Times, December 26, 2020, Page 7 pandemic outbreak to abruptly end however, the governor said. “The presence of a vaccine in our state does not mean that we can flip a light switch and remove all restrictions,” Murphy said. He said it would require months and “millions of New Jerseyans getting vaccinated.” The death count related to the pandemic stands at more than 15,425 statewide. “The pandemic is nowhere near over,” the governor said noting that with Christmas coming up soon, people needed to be particularly careful. Ocean County Health Department (OCHD) Public Health Coordinator/Health Officer Daniel Regenye noted that while many people are finding comfort knowing a vaccine has finally been approved by the FDA, for some, that news brings little reason for holiday cheer. “We certainly understand that some people have reservations about getting vaccinated. It is best to get the facts behind the benefits of a COVID-19 vaccine and that they not get misled by unreliable information,” Regenye said. Regenye said the first vaccine approved for emergency use authorization by the FDA and developed by Pfizer - went through all the required steps in the testing and approval process. Vaccine safety and ensuring it works is always top priority and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) provides a list of reasons to get vaccinated: COVID-19 vaccines were carefully evaluated in clinical trials and have been authorized or approved only if they make it substantially less likely you’ll get COVID-19. Based on what we know about vaccines for other diseases, experts believe that getting a COVID-19 vaccine may help keep you from getting seriously ill even if you do get COVID-19. Getting vaccinated yourself may also protect people around you, particularly people at increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19. Experts continue to conduct more studies about the effect of COVID-19 vaccination on severity of illness from COVID-19, as well as
its ability to keep people from spreading the virus that causes COVID-19. COVID-19 can have serious, life-threatening complications, and there is no way to know how COVID-19 will affect you. And if you get sick, you could spread the disease to friends, family, and others around you. Clinical trials of COVID-19 vaccines must first show they are safe and effective before any vaccine can be authorized or approved for use. The known and potential benefits of a COVID-19 vaccine must outweigh the known and potential risks of the vaccine for use under what is known as an Emergency Use Authorization (EAU). Getting COVID-19 may offer some natural protection, known as immunity. But experts don’t know how long this protection lasts, and the risk of severe illness and death from COVID-19 far outweighs any benefits of natural immunity. COVID-19 vaccination will help protect you by creating an antibody response without having to experience sickness. Both natural immunity and immunity produced by a vaccine are important aspects of COVID-19 that experts are trying to learn more about, and CDC will keep the public informed as new evidence becomes available. Wearing masks and social distancing help reduce your chance of being exposed to the virus or spreading it to others, but these measures are not enough. Vaccines will work with your immune system so it will be ready to fight the virus if you are exposed. The combination of getting vaccinated and following CDC’s recommendations to protect yourself and others will offer the best protec-
tion from COVID-19. S topping a pandemic requires using all the tools we have available. As experts learn more about how COVID-19 vaccination may help reduce spread of the disease in communities, CDC will continue to update the recommendations to protect communities using the latest science. Regenye said for those people already convinced of the benefits, the good news is that the first shipments of the vaccine are expected to arrive in the coming weeks. He stressed the need for patience in waiting for inoculations as the vaccine will be distributed in phases. “We know right now that hospitals and longterm care facilities will be part of the first phase which could start later this month with the following phases stretching into the first half of 2021. In the meantime, we still urge people to adhere to the current safety protocols as the best way to mitigate the spread of COVID-19,” Regenye said. The OCHD is providing a general COVID-19 Information Call Hot Line for residents and clinicians to answer questions regarding the coronavirus. The number is 732-341-9700 ext. 7411. The NJDOH (NJPIES) hotline is available for questions around the clock at 1-800222-1222 or by dialing 2-1-1.

Child Porn Charge Added To Murder Charge
By Chris Lundy BERKELEY – A man in jail on murder charges is now facing a charge of possession of child pornography. Angelo Grenci, 44, of Berkeley, had been charged with murder in the stabbing death of Carlton Williams, 50, of Seaside Heights. When searching his phone, officers found child pornography.
C harges are merely accusations until proven in a court of law. Investigators believe Grenci stabbed Williams during an altercation in the area of Magnolia Avenue in Manitou Park. The stabbing had taken place on November 14, and Williams succumbed to his injuries on November 24, upgrading the charge from attempted murder to murder, police said.
“We were initially examining Grenci’s phone for evidence relative to the murder investigation,” Prosecutor Bradley D. Billhimer said. “Upon discovering evidence of another, independent crime, specifically Possession of Child Pornography, detectives from our High Tech Crime Unit sought an additional search warrant and uncovered over 1,000 images of Child Pornography.

Grenci was charged accordingly and served with a copy of his complaint today in the Ocean County Jail.” Grenci has been in jail since his November 16 arrest. Grenci had once been on an episode of the program “America’s Most Wanted” for an assault that included trying to run someone down with his car. He had also been charged with bank robbery on a separate instance, according to Patch.com. Grenci had tried to be an advocate for trying to turn youth away from a life of crime, and wrote a book about his life called “In Absentia.” However, there were charges for burglary intermittent with these attempts to steer people toward a better way of life. Prosecutor Billhimer acknowledged the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office Major Crime Unit, Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office High Tech Crime Unit, Ocean County Regional SWAT Team, Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office Victim Witness Advocacy Unit, Berkeley Township Police Department Detective Bureau, Toms River Township Police Department, Ocean County Sheriff’s Office Crime Scene Investigation Unit, Ocean County Medical Examiner’s Office, Ocean County Department of Corrections, State of New Jersey Department of Corrections, and New Jersey State Parole Board, for their cooperative efforts in connection with this investigation leading to Grenci’s Murder charge, and now this additional charge of Possession of Child Pornography.
Medical Staff Receiving COVID-19 Vaccines NEW JERSEY - Team members at Hackensack Meridian Health received the first shipment of COVID-19 vaccines the week of December 14. Frontline health care workers are the first to receive this vital protection. In the weeks and months to come, HMH plans to offer vaccines to all New Jerseyans. Hackensack Meridian Health is preparing to administer a COVID-19 vaccine in coordination with federal and state partners. We expect to offer COVID-19 vaccines to our patients and community members beginning in early 2021. We also have been involved in testing some of these vaccines through clinical trials at Hackensack University Medical Center and Jersey Shore University Medical Centers. We are following guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the State of New Jersey for who should receive the first doses, including priority groups such as health care workers, first responders, and others who are identified as most at risk.

LASIK, PRK, Vision Correction −Photo courtesy Toms River Regional Schools Beginning next year, district guidance counselors like Danielle Stolz will be working with students like Freddie Torres to facilitate the newly improved dual enrollment program between Toms River Regional Schools and Ocean County College. By Chris Lundy TOMS RIVER – The local school district has partnered with Ocean County College to offer dual enrollment as an option to students who want to earn Ocean County College credits before they even graduate from high school. This head start program has been successful in other districts, such as Lacey. Now, Toms River students will have this opportunity. It is just one more option for students, in addition to the career academies and other offerings available to students from Toms River, South Toms River, Beachwood and Pine Beach. Students can earn college credits, certificates (30 credits) and even an associate degree (60 credits). Business, science, manufacturing, graphic arts, and information technology will be offered. There will be opportunities for assistance based on need, which includes standard student scholarships
through the college. The program is expected to start September of 2021. Students will have the option of taking these courses at a reduced cost than if they enrolled in OCC after graduation. “The benefits of this arrangement reach far and wide, and it’s difficult for me to overstate the positive impact this will have for our students and families,” said Superintendent David Healy. “This will increase our course offerings, boost the profile of our Career Academies, increase academic achievement and produce more college-ready graduates, and ultimately provide significant cost savings for our families.” presented a snapshot of the program during a public committee meeting Nov. 11. He stressed that the program is fully optional-the courses will be offered regardless of robust or minimal enrollment-- and spoke of its advantages. (Dual - See Page 22)

Comfort is very important when wearing your hearing aid(s). Discomfort occurs 10 percent of the time and usually happens when trying to remove your hearing instrument from your ear. In most cases, in-the-ear hearing aids (ITEs) and ear molds for behind-theear hearing aids (BTEs) can create a sore ear (usually towards the top of the aid or ear mold). When this happens, do not continue to wear the instrument. It’s not like breaking in a new pair of shoes! The next step is to contact your hearing health-care professional who can assess the problem. The majority of problems occur due to a “tight fit” and can be resolved by either grinding the mold/aid or remaking the entire
hearing instrument or ear mold. Most hearing healthcare professionals can eliminate the problem by grinding and then buffing the problem area. You will be advised to wear the hearing instrument to “test drive” the modification. If this is unsuccessful, you should return to the office and have the aid and/or ear mold remade by the manufacturer. Remind the audiologist/ dispenser to mark the area of soreness with a black marker to further reduce the risk of soreness reoccurring. Remember, if your ear hurts don’t try to get used to it. You have invested a lot of time and money towards better hearing. Contact your hearing healthcare professional immediately who will fix the problem.

Dear Joel
By Joel Markel
She Asks Me Why, I’m Just A Hairy Guy
Dear Joel, After years of sporting a crewcut- like haircut required by his job, my recently retired husband has decided to grow his hair long. Despite my repeated requests, he refuses to get a haircut. I am all for ‘self-expression’, but it’s not a flattering look. Do you have any suggestions on how I can get him in the barber’s chair? Answer: Sounds like a hairy situation, but nothing too serious. I would suggest just letting him enjoy his new found
f reedom and my g u e s s i s that eventually he will tire of his long locks. In the meantime, love him for what’s on the inside, and be willing to share your hair-care products. Thank you for writing. Joel Write to joel@preferredcares.com. His radio show, “Preferred Company” airs Monday through Friday from 8 to 10 a.m. on preferredradio. com and 1160 & 1310 WOBM-AM.

6 Holiday Plants That Make You Sick By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
Many families have young children and pets, and so today’s article is aimed at keeping you safe. Today you’ll find out which holiday plants need to be kept out of reach of children and pets. Poinsettia. The poinsettia plant blooms with those stunning big flowers! The flowers aren’t really “flowers,” they’re just leaves that turned a pretty color. Did you know that the plants green leaves actually provide the color of the bloom you see, based upon the amount of light it gets? That’s why some varieties have red, white or pink flowers! The sap causes oral irritation, cramps and stomach upset. The Christmas Rose. Sometimes called Helleborus niger, the “Christmas rose” plant is dangerous to children and dogs due to the content of cardiac glycosides. That term is actually a drug category that includes the heart drug called digoxin. The plant also contains poisonous “bufadienolides.” Symptoms can be dangerous, and include throat problems, weakness, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach upset and drooling. Holly Berries. Boughs of holly offer homeowners some stunning holiday decor options, but the berries are toxic to pets and people. It can cause local irritation in your mouth as well as severe diarrhea, vomiting, dehydration, drowsiness, the jitters and physical weakness. The holly leaves are prickly so those aren’t safe either, but it’s really the the berries that are the most harmful because they contain cyanogenic glycosides, as well as another toxin that acts similarly to theophylline. Christmas trees. If you love the scent of
a beautiful living spruce tree, and bring one home for the holidays, I recommend you feed it with plain water. Don’t use the commercial preservatives because most brands can cause stomach upset, nausea, vomiting and eye irritation. Whether or not this causes sensitivity is really dependent on what your tree preservative contains. Pathogens like bacteria and fungus will grow in stagnant water so make sure you keep the water fresh. Mistletoe. The kissing sprig. If you pass beneath the mistletoe, you can get one planted on you! It’s a well-known holiday tradition and symbol of love! American mistletoe (Phoradendron serotinum) is different and safer, compared to its European cousin known botanically as Viscum album. American mistletoe is not toxic like the European variety, but here in the states, it’s come down to guilt by association. Bulbs. There are many spring blooming bulbs that I had in my house such as daffodil, hyacinth and amaryllis. Some of you bring the bulbs indoors during winter, however these bulbs can be accidentally mistaken for garlic or shallots, or eaten by a pet or child. Many are quite poisonous and can induce mouth irritation, vomiting, diarrhea and other symptoms. Many poisonings can occur during visits because if a family hosts you that isn’t used to either pet or child-proofing their home, they may have decorated their home with these types of plants. It’s important to seek medical advice if you are exposed to one of these plants. The number to the Poison Control Center is 800-222-1222 in case you need it.

−Photo courtesy 107.1 The Boss A check for $36,500 was donated to Michael’s Feat, a nonprofit that helps families with seriously ill children. By Chris Lundy FREEHOLD – Sometimes, the best way to raise money for a good cause is to talk to the people it will help. That’s exactly what the 3rd Annual Mistletoe Rock Radiothon did. It broadcast interviews with families who told stories about their children being in the neonatal intensive care units. Listeners of 107.1 The Boss heard their stories, and reached out to help. They donated $36,500. The radio station held the radiothon in front of the Macy’s at the Freehold Raceway Mall on December 11 and 12. In conjunction with Ashley HomeStores and powered by Hutchins HVAC, the radiothon benefited Michael’s Feat. This is a nonprofit that provides comfort and support for families carrying and caring for seriously ill newborns. They offer families in need direct financial support, overnight bags filled with supplies for hospital stays, furniture and medical equipment, meals, gas cards, and when necessary respite care and bereave-

ment support. 107.1 The Boss’s VP of Programming and Afternoon drive host Jeff Rafter and Middays Michele Amabile kicked off the radiothon on both days, followed by night host Drew Miller on Friday. Bill Fox and Dianne DeOliveira from the 107.1 The Boss Morning Show closed the show. Donations were made in person by shoppers at the mall and by listeners calling in. If you are still interested in making a donation, email info@PressCommRadio.com. All donors were eligible to win a “Brilliant Swag Bag” including over $500 in prizes, courtesy of Brilliant Environmental Services. Corporate sponsors included Puharic & Associates Insurance Agency, New Jersey Natural Gas, and AJ Perri. The 3rd Annual Mistletoe Rock Radiothon was also made possible by International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 400, NAPA Auto Parts of Shrewsbury, Bud Light, Chocolate Carousel, and AMC Embroidery.

Inside The Law Thieves Stealing Tax Refunds And Govermnemt Stimulus Checks
Robert C. Shea Esq.
By: Robert C. Shea, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates Warning! Thieves are using malicious e-mail, text messages, and telephone scams designed to steal your tax refunds and government stimulus checks. Things to remember about your IRS Check • There is no business service that can be used to get your check from the IRS any faster that the IRS itself. Do not fall for that scam. • The IRS does not use a third party to “hold”, “process” or “sort” your checks. • Funds are issued directly from the IRS to you via direct deposit or U.S. Postal Service mail. Stimulus checks are issued based on how you filed your 2018 or 2019 taxes. • The IRS will not ask for a PIN, password, or confidential access information for credit cards or bank accounts over the phone or through e-mail. Phone Scams • Scammers may pose as IRS agents or bank employees to request sensitive information or ask you to verify sensitive information, such as bank account credentials and Social Security Numbers.
• Let all incoming calls form unknown numbers /callers go directly to voice mail. • Confirm any request with the alleged organization/business. Use a known phone number or one published on the organizations website when you call to confirm any such request. E-Mail And Tex Message Scams • E-mail or text messages may tempt you to click on a link to infect your device with malware, or call a fake number promising urgent news about your stimulus check or ask you to share personal or banking information. These cyber- attacks, known as “phishing”, are sometimes created to look lie official bank correspondence. • Do not click on links or open attachments • Confirm the message from a trusted source using a known phone number. • Forward any suspicious e-mails or text messages to the authorities or your banking institution. This is a public service announcement from your friends at R.C. Shea & Associates, a full-service law firm servicing New Jersey since 2000.

Water Company Preps For Winter Season
By Chris Lundy TOMS RIVER – Not to jinx it, but it’s better to be prepared for the worst that can happen than to be caught unawares. As weather reports for the upcoming winter vary from mild to scary, SUEZ water issued a statement that they are ready for whatever might come. “Our teams are mobilized and doing the necessary work to keep communities safe and protected during this storm,” said Jim Mastrokalos, Director of Operations. “Customers should feel confident that specific actions are being taken to ensure we are prepared to respond accordingly.” Company officials have been working with local emergency response teams to coordinate preparation and eventual response. Staff have checked back-up generators, stocked up on drinking water treatment supplies and are working on protecting the integrity of facilities and water supplies. “SUEZ has made certain we’re prepared
to provide uninterrupted service and respond quickly as possible to any emergency situations,” Mastrokalos said. “Our team is making certain we have everything in place to continue to provide water service to all of our customers.” SUEZ services parts of Toms River, South Toms River, Berkeley and Manalapan. The company urged its customers to prepare their own homes for the winter weather. Residents should have personal emergency plans ready to go. Emergency supplies like flashlights, batteries, and food should be available. In the event of a blizzard, the water company also encourages customers to store extra tap water in food-grade storage containers. Clean the containers thoroughly with soap and water, rinse well, and then seal them with their original tops. Label the containers “drinking water” and the date. Do not store the water in direct sunlight or near toxic chemicals. Additional tips are available at ready.gov.

Students Take Part In “Secret Santa Kindness”
BERKELEY – On December 10, students in Mrs. Ofsanko’s class at BTES took part in a special “12 Days Before Winter Break!” Each morning, they receive a special treat from their teacher including: snowman’s poop (aka Tic Tacs), candy cane pens (aka frindles: it
keep your elbows locked. Bend at the waist, not at the elbows. (4). Compress at least 1/3 and no more than 1/2 the width of the chest. For medium to large breed dogs, you’ll have to push hard to compress the chest by 1/3! It’s easy to push too hard in small dogs
and cats, so be sure not to compress more than 1/2 the width of the chest! (5) Aim for about 100 – 120 compressions per minute, or about two compressions every second. Sing a song in your head to keep the right beat, such as “Stayin’ Alive.”

Continued From Page 11 Students who complete between 12 and 24 college credits are at a distinct advantage when applying to colleges, said Dr. Henry Jackson, OCC Executive Director of Academic Success. They will then be applying to essentially be a sophomore at colleges and universities. This means they won’t be competing with other incoming freshman.
Colleges often seek to fill a sophomore class because that year has a much smaller head count after freshman drop out or transfer. It would also save the family’s money on a year of tuition. “The goal here is to allow your students the option to take these courses and earn college credits,” Dr. Jackson said. “Ultimately, they’ll be able to utilize our entire OCC course catalogue.” “I know firsthand what this level of college
readiness can mean for families since my daughter recently graduated High School South and OCC with an associate degree in math,” said Board President Anna Polozzo. “What’s uniquely special about this dual enrollment program is that OCC works so well with our high school kids to ensure that their college credits are relevant and applicable. Having recently gone through this process, I’ve seen the disappointment of students who learn, for example, that their
AP credits don’t count. That’s not the case here. OCC, in combination with our teachers and guidance counselors, is truly preparing our students for college, and giving them genuine leverage. Every parent in the district should be jumping for joy at this news.” The journey to this point began years ago and, under the direction of Superintendent Healy, was spearheaded by former Assistant Superintendent Dr. Marc Natanagara and then Director of Curriculum Norma DiNoia. That torch has been successfully carried by Assistant Superintendent Cara DiMeo, Director of 6-12 Curriculum Estee Mailot, and Supervisor of Educational Technology Tiffany Lucey. “This is a matter of equity,” said DiMeo. “Not only will dual enrollment help our Career Academy and general education students; it meets the needs of our at-risk learners who might not have otherwise pursued a college pathway.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of dec 26 - jan 1
By Jeraldine Saunders
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Keep the peace and keep the faith. Be aware that people could be a bit quick to anger during the next few days. Your best bet is to remain busy doing whatever you do best during the upcoming week. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Your capacity for fun is enhanced and you are ready, willing and able to try something new and exciting at the drop of a hat. In the week ahead, your impromptu acts of kindness can produce big smiles of appreciation. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Sentimental cards and extravagant gifts might arrive to brighten your weekly forecast. Loved ones may go overboard to please you. Enjoy oďŹƒce parties or a chance to take a break from your normal routines. CANCER (June 21-July 22): The upcoming week can wrap you up in the warmth and goodwill of the holiday spirit but can also bring you face to face with some unfinished business. A partner may be easily irritated or react in unanticipated ways. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Most things fall along a spectrum rather than being strictly black and white. See the many possibilities rather than letting your opinions harden into a stubborn refusal to change. Focus on being open-minded in the upcoming week. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The phone may ring with holiday greetings. Even if doubts creep in during the week ahead, trust that loved ones will provide you with the support and necessary ingredients to achieve peace and serenity. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In the week
ahead, try not to project your own insecurities onto a partner. If you’re feeling uncertain, examine the facts to determine if your worries have a real foundation or if it’s just your fears, and if the time is ripe to make a break. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Those last-minute shopping sprees can be more costly than anticipated. Don’t become unbalanced by oďŹƒce feuds or a companion who might challenge your composure. Focus on being calm, cool and collected in the week ahead. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): A thirst for excitement might make you less discriminating about your spending and your companions. You might be able to overcome a shortcoming or blind spot and learn a valuable lesson in the upcoming week. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Family friction or confrontations with people who rub you the wrong way can put you on the defensive as the week goes by. Try not to react if people push your buttons. Enjoy having more financial stability. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): This is a week when you might think that nothing you’re seeing is quite what you’re looking for. Once you find the just right thing, take a deep breath and feel relieved of the weight of responsibilities. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Focus on stability and enduring values in the week to come. Avoid arguments over the budget and don’t go on a spending spree during the next few days, as you will likely regret it. Friends will see you through a dilemma.
