By Bob Vosseller MANCHESTER – Hundreds of hackberry, mockernut hickory and willow oak seedlings were distributed to township residents in honor of Earth Day and to help keep the township green. The free giveaway, one of two events coordinated by the Township’s Environmental Com mission, was held during the week of Ear th Day at the municipal complex on Colonial Drive.

percent municipal tax increase, Sibilia explained. Local taxes for municipal purposes for 2022 have been budgeted at $2,672,837.51. This is an increase of $51,301.88. He further explained that the average home in Lakehurst is assessed at $161,133.19 and the proposed municipal local tax levy on an average home valuation is $2,979.35. A homeowner with a home valued at that average would see an approximately $50 increase in their municipal taxes.

Resident David Burton asked what the purpose is of establishing a cap bank. Sibilia said that “whatever funds we don’t utilize, we reserve for up to three years for future years to provide for additional revenue.” “Every year, developing a budget is a challenge. This year was especially challenging. The borough often has to contend with costs that are outside of our control,” Sibilia said. He noted that department heads within the municipality (Taxes - See Page 8)

Taxes And Reassessment On Residents’ Minds
By Bob Vosseller LAKEHURST – Residents came out to question this year’s municipal spending plan which was unanimously approved during a recent council meeting. Normally, the Borough Council has a public audience of one person but the subject of this year’s budget drew nine more people who inquired about various aspects of it. They received answers primarily from Lakehurst’s Chief Financial Officer Wayne Sibilia. The $4,437,920.28 budget features a 2

By Bob Vosseller MANCHESTER – The subject of the township’s environmental health and open space was reviewed during a recent council session. Councilman Sam Fusaro reported on the April 25 meeting of the Manchester Coordinating Council which he attended along with Council President Joan Brush. Fusaro noted the meeting’s speaker featured Joel Mott, the Public Programs Specialist at the NJ Pinelands Commission. Mott specializes in community engagement for the Commission and he “provided a very thorough and interesting review of the Pinelands and how they work with the rest of the state. He went through everything from what the trees were and the big thing I came away with was the Kirkwood-Cohansey Aquifer contains 18 trillion gallons of fresh water.” T he s out h Je rsey-based aquifer
system in the state’s Pine Barrens covers around 3,000 square miles and receives about 44 inches of precipitation annually. Around 50 percent of this water is transpired by vegetation or evaporates back into the atmosphere. About 17 to 20 inches annually enters the ground and some of that water that enters the ground is pulled down through the soil and reaches the water table. Councilman Fusaro explained, “the problem with the aquifer is the sand. It goes t h roug h t he sa nd quickly and has to be repeated and repeated. It was very interesting,” He also said the township’s tax accessor sent out information about the municipality’s open space program. Fusaro said the program was created from a non-binding referendum “which had 70 percent of residents in favor of open space.” (Health - See Page 4)

They also presented the residents who picked them up with information on how to properly plant a seedling as well as background on the species of seedlings that were given out. When asked how it was decided as to what seedling species would be available this year, Middaugh said “this is run by the Department of Public Works of Manchester and they sent someone out two days ago to the State Forestry Center

Since 2003 we have bought 350 acres,” Fusaro said. He noted the state has paid half of the $24
in Jackson and they picked them up and that is when they knew what they were getting. “I kept on calling and asking, do you know what species? Nope, they didn’t know until they got them,” Middaugh added. How that person made the decision, we don’t know but these are great.” “We had dogwood last year,” Middaugh added. She noted that the willow oak went fast and on the morning of the second day, it ran out but those who came by that morning were more than content with the mockernut hickory and
hackberry. Matthew and Megan Belps were among those who wanted to spruce up their property with some additional shading. “We’ve come here before and have a lot of nice trees now growing in our back yard because of this,” Megan Belps said. As to how to plant a tree seedling, start off looking for a good location for your new tree and remember it will grow to adult size. Then moisten the roots. Remember, dry roots die. Dig a hole two to three times larger than the roots when spread apart.
After that, place the tree in the hole at the proper depth and loosen the soil gently. Take care not to plant roots too deep or too shallow. Add more soil and pack down with your hands. Then use water to firm the soil if necessary. Mulch around the tree with wood chips and water the tree regularly, but not too often or the roots may rot. The second event held later in the week featured representatives of Jersey Central Power & Light who came out to speak to attendees at Town Hall about saving money and saving energy.
million purchase of that land. In other government news, Councilman James Vaccaro said he would like to see the governing body draft a resolution to support the people of the Ukraine who are enduring the invasion of the country by Russian forces. The resolution would note that “the council, Mayor (Robert) Hudak and the people of the township, support the people of the Ukraine.” This was second time that the official called upon the governing body to draft such a measure. Councilman Craig Wallis said he re-
cently had the chance “to listen to Dr. Ben Carson speak, in Toms River and it’s not often that you get to listen to a national figure speak and it wasn’t about politics. It was about where the country is going and what it will take to get back and mostly it was about where we started from and circling back to those same type of principals.” “He was an excellent speaker,” Councilman Wallis said during the council report portion of the meeting. During the public comment period por-
tion of the meeting resident Judy Noonan brought up that light on a utility pole in her development had not been working for two years and asked the township’s assistance in seeing what could be done. Mayor Hudak and clerk Sabina Martin said that contact could be made with JCP&L about the matter and asked Noonan if she knew the pole number and could share it after the meeting. Towns pay utility companies a set rate every year for every pole, whether they are working or not.

officers, crew members, and trainees on board that day. Of those 97, 35 people and one member of the ground crew were killed during the disaster. Keeping with tradition the ceremony at the base will begin at 6:45 p.m. on May 6 but is not open to the general public due to the base security. The LZ 129 Hindenburg was a German commercial passenger carrying rigid airship, that was the lead vessel of the Hindenburg class and the longest class of f lying machine and the largest airship by envelope volume. After more than eight decades of research and scientific tests, the cause of the airship’s explosion remain the same as the conclusions reached by the original German and American accident investigation in 1937. The disaster is believed to have been caused by an electrostatic discharge (a spark) that ignited leaking hydrogen. Hugo Eckener, a Ger ma n ai rsh ip pioneer who headed the firm that constructed the Hindenburg, had at one time speculated that the ship was the victim of sabotage. He would later withdraw that idea saying a stray spark more likely ignited the ship’s highly f lammable hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas was used to contend with the National Munitions Control Board refusal to lift an export ban on alternative lighter than air gas that could
The Manchester Times, May 7, 2022, Page 5 provide sufficient lift. Ernst A. Lehmann was the most senior officer on board although Max Pruss was the commanding officer of the last f light of the famed airship. Lehmann was there as an observer and sustained serious burns when the airship caught fire. He died a day later. Among the passengers, staff, trainees and g uests was a Ger man shepherd named Ulla who was owned by vaudeville performer Joseph Spah. Spah survived but sadly, the dog did not. Most of those who did survive did so by jumping out of the window before the airship crashed into the ground. Many waited for it to be a split second from hitting the ground before they took the plunge. Over half the people involved in the disaster survived. The actual death toll is logged as 36 since the crash also killed a crewman working on the ground. The Hindenbu rg will be remembered as the singular event that killed airship travel but there were other events that happened which also contributed to its demise. None of them stand out however, as much as the Hindenburg airship disaster which had stunning visual images taken and a notable radio announcer description at the scene as it happened. The airship sailed for three days prior to the incident of around 7 p.m. on May 6, 1937. No one knows exactly how long it took for the ship to burn but eyewitness accounts of that time describe it to be around 30 to 40 seconds to burn off all the hydrogen and the skin of the airship.

Continued From Page 1 were requested to “try hard to spend for only what they needed. Yes, taxes are going up.” During the meeting it was also noted that the borough has been ordered by Ocean County to conduct a reassessment of all borough properties. Sibilia said the cost of that reassessment was something that the governing body had to contend with
as it would have pay for it. He said any tax impact for that would be reflected next year. A reassessment is when all the property in the borough is looked at and assigned new values. The assessment is what the property is worth, not what you paid for it. Towns are ordered to do this by the state when properties are an average of 15% off market values. The difference between a reassessment
and a revaluation is that reassessments are done in-house, and revaluations are done by an outside company. Smaller towns are able to do reassessments themselves and save money. It was also stated that a reassessment did not automatically mean a homeowner’s taxes would increase. A letter recently went out to residents concerning the reassessment process and when a public forum would be held that would explain

Street Lights And Gas Bills Council President Steven Oglesby brought up that a street light on Church Street was not working and “The street light has been out for several weeks.” He asked what the protocol was in alerting residents about the light being out of commission. “I don’t know if there are others out as well.” He also brought up that Jersey Central Power & Light had a program for the replacement of borough street lights with LED lighting. “Is that program still going on? They are so much more energy efficient” Mayor Robbins said he’d reach out to JCP&L about the situation. The council president also said that a check on the borough natural gas bill pertaining to certain borough buildings was warranted. “What I’d like to do is contact the gas company and have them check the meter and make sure it is operating correctly because it doesn’t make sense to me that it more than tripled,” when the facility wasn’t even occupied. “I know they do energy audits and they could see if we are leaking heat. The bill last month was over $1,100 where the Borough Hall was only $262 and Borough Hall is staffed five days a week,” Oglesby said noting how old Borough Hall was, “I’m sure it isn’t energy efficient.”

Spotlight On Government Correspondence & Commentary From Your Local, County, State & Federal Officials
Menendez Bill Will Allow U.S. To Beat China Economically Capitol Comments Senator Robert Menendez
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Bob Menendez (D-N.J.), Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, introduced the Economic Statecraft for the Twenty-First Century Act, new comprehensive legislation creating a whole-of-government approach to recommit U.S. leadership in the global economy. The new initiative, which comes as the Senate and House of Representatives begin the formal conference process to reconcile different versions of U.S.-China competition legislation, complements and expands upon provisions being negotiated – including on China’s economic coercion, supply chains, global infrastructure, artificial intelligence, and economic resilience. “Twenty years ago, the common consensus was that by joining the international economic order, China would adopt principles of economic liberalization and personal freedom. But unfortunately, that hasn’t happened. Instead they are using their economic integration to pressure the developing world to choose between our system and our values of self-determination, respect for human rights, and openness – or theirs: of authoritarianism, repression, and censorship,” Chairman Menendez said. “It is time to have coordination. We need a new, whole-of-government approach. One rooted in the emerging geopolitical realities of a world more connected yet more complex than ever. And that’s exactly what my bill, the Economic
Statecraft for the Twenty-First Century Act, will do.” Unveiled in a speech to the American Leadership Initiative, Chairman Menendez made the case for overhauling U.S. competitive economic diplomacy so the federal government can be better equipped to outcompete China in five strategic domains of the 21st century – infrastructure, energy, technology, international financial institutions, and global resilience. Menendez underscored the significant extent to which geo-economics plays a role in American national security and raised concerns that China’s brand of international economic diplomacy – or ‘manipulative investment’ – threatens global stability, the free flow of commerce, freedom of navigation, and the resolution of disputes consistent with international law. “To create, shape, and set standards for the twenty-first century, America and our allies must show up. If we don’t, we risk seeing the rule of law in these countries washed away in a flood of Chinese cash. It is not too late, but time is certainly running out,” Chairman Menendez added. “Revitalizing the rules-based order and institutions built for the 21st century means dealing with the challenges posed by technology and artificial intelligence. It means being honest about how these advances can also lead to oppression and economic displacement. It means reforming our institutions in a way that delivers economic prosperity for all of our people. Our best hope at establishing the rules of the road for the future of global commerce is to work together.” The Economic Statecraft for the Twenty-First Century Act (ES21) directs a whole-of-government approach to confront China’s anti-com-
petitive and predatory international economic policies along four lines of effort as it directs all levels of government to expose and respond to China’s economic coercion including: • Requiring foreign assistance recipients to disclose debt to Chinese entities; • Creating the Countering Chinese Economic Coercion Task Force; • Defending states who support Taiwan against China’s economic coercion; • Coordinating with the OECD on China’s Belt & Road Initiative. • Assisting allies and partners through the Infrastructure Transaction and Assistance Network and CFIUS to establish disclosure regimes that reduce national security risks in their economies. Coordinates the Office of the Trade Representative, Customs and Border Protection, the State Department, the Commerce Department, and other agencies to expose and combat China’s anti-competitive foreign economic policies - including gross subsidies, dumping and intellectual property theft. • Promotes coordination with allies and partners to implement export controls and secure critical supply chains including for semiconductors, critical minerals and pharmaceuticals. The bill equips the federal government with important tools to compete with China in five strategic domains of the 21st century as it signals US support for global infrastructure investments through initiatives including Build Back Better World (B3W), the Blue Dot Network, and the Three Seas Initiative. It would mandate the appointment of a Strategic Investments Officer at the Development Finance Corporation; and require a strategy from the State department on pursuing nearshoring initiatives in to relocate supply chains to Latin America and the Caribbean.
It orients diplomatic and foreign assistance agencies to work with allied counterparts and achieve energy security and global net-zero carbon emissions in 2050 including by: • Authorizing the Assistant Secretary of State for Energy Resources, responsible for protecting energy security and promoting global clean energy production; and • Establishing a clean energy development finance fund partnership between Development Finance Corporation and European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. • Addresses the impact of critical and emerging technologies on international standards, human rights, democratic institutions and security alliances including by; • Supporting the G-20’s principled and practical standards for international digital connectivity and trade; and • Promoting international cooperation with allies and partners on artificial intelligence and R&D. It strengthens American commitments in the global economy and multilateral economic institutions - including the International Monetary Fund, World Bank, Inter-American Development Bank, and Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum, by; • Authorizing the transfer of SDRs to the Resilience and Sustainability Trust at the IMF, joining other developed countries in providing assistance to developing countries to recover from the pandemic; and • Developing new ways to ease debt burdens for developing countries. • Creates a State Department Office of Economic Resiliency and institutionalizes a whole-of government approach to improve global resilience against pandemics and other international shocks and stresses.

Tragedy Strikes With Two Motorcycle Crashes In Same Area
By Alyssa Riccardi MANCHESTER – Two motorcycle crashes – one of them fatal – took place near the same rural intersection a day apart. The first crash took place around 2:15 p.m. on April 30, on Pasadena Road near the intersection of Mt. Misery Road. A motorcyclist pulled over to see if someone needed help, and another motorcyclist struck him from behind, police said. First responders attempted lifesaving measures on Paul Brinkman, 66, but he succumbed to his injuries, police said. Officers also spoke to 57-year-old Michael Varcadipane who had sustained injuries to the right side of his body but refused any further medical attention. According to police, both Brinkman and Varcadipane were traveling together eastbound on Pasadena Road in a staggered formation with Brinkman traveling behind Varcadipane. At this time, Varcadipane spotted a disabled motorcyclist on the westbound shoulder of Pasadena Road and attempted to pull over onto the eastbound shoulder to assist them. As a result, Varcadipane decelerated and pulled off the roadway. However, Brinkman failed to react in time and they collided. The left front end of Brinkman’s Harley Davidson motorcycle hit the right front end of Varcadipane’s Indian Chieftain motorcycle, causing both drivers to lose control and be ejected. Authorities determined that Brinkman was not wearing a Department of Transportation approved helmet, but Varcadipane was. Assisting at the scene were detectives from
the Ocean County Sheriff ’s Crime Scene Investigations Unit, Investigators from the Ocean County Medical Examiner’s Office, EMTs from the Manchester Township Division of Emergency Services, Medics from Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, Fire Police from Whiting Volunteer Fire Department, and the New Jersey State Park Police. The roadway was closed in the area of the crash for several hours while officers conducted the investigation. The other crash took place at around 5:30 p.m. on May 1. According to police, the driver was traveling eastbound on Pasadena Road near the intersection of Mt. Misery Road when a deer suddenly entered the roadway and hit the motorcycle on its left side. Both occupants were ejected from the motorcycle. The 2018 Harley Davidson continued down the roadway before coming crashing in the dirt shoulder of the westbound side of the roadway, police said. Frederick Fritz, 55, and his passenger, Phyllis Fritz, 53, both from Manchester, were brought to Jersey Shore University Medical Center via ambulance for treatment. They were in the trauma unit at press time. Police determined the cause of the crash to be a deer crossing the road, giving Frederick little time to react or maneuver before impact. Assisting at the scene were the Whiting Fire Department and Manchester Township EMS. The crash is currently being investigated by Patrolman Anderson of the Manchester Township Police Department’s Traffic Safety Section.

Traffic Stops Leads To Two Drug Arrests
By Alyssa Riccardi LAKEHURST – After pulling a car over for an active traffic warrant, two Whiting residents were arrested and charged April 30 for possessing drugs, police said. Around 7:44 p.m., Officer Harold Hester of the Lakehurst Police Department stopped a car on Route 70 after looking up the registration and discovered that the driver had an active traffic warrant. As a result, the driver, Christopher Cornell Jr., 30, of Whiting was placed under arrest. The passenger, 56-year-old James Pollack of Whiting, was seen making “unnatural movements” inside of the car during the stop. It was also discovered that Pollack had an active traffic warrant and he was placed under arrest.
In addition, police found Pollack possessing about 100 wax folds of suspected heroin. After searching the car, police seized of an additional 150 wax folds of suspected heroin. Cornell Jr. and Pollack were charged with Possession of a Controlled Dangerous Substance and Possession of CDS with the intent to distribute. Both were transported to Lakehurst Police Headquarters for processing. Cornell Jr. was ultimately lodged at the Ocean County Jail and Pollack was later released. All criminal charges are merely accusations, and all subjects are innocent until proven guilty. The public is reminded that they may report suspicious activity and remain anonymous or use the tip link online at lakehurstpolice.org.

AroUnD the JerSeY Shore Press Broadcasting Passes Million-Dollar Mark For St. Jude’s Hospital
JERSEY SHORE – Celebrating a decade of successful fundraising, Thunder 106, a Press Broadcasting affiliate, just completed their annual “Country Cares for St. Jude Kids Radiothon” raising $184,000 and pushing their total ten-year contribution to nearly $1,200,000. St. Jude’s is the leader in cancer care, research, and treatment for children. Families never receive a bill for treatment and all travel, housing and/or food costs are paid by St. Jude’s. Starting April 11, Mike Ryan, Director of Programming for Thunder 106, started his
–Photo courtesy Press Communications 106-mile Jersey Shore walk to help raise awareness and donations. “St. Jude’s Research Hospital is an amazing place,” said Ryan. “It’s incredible that a family can get care for their child, and it doesn’t cost them a cent. Since the start of the pandemic charitable contributions have seen a dip in income; I just wanted to do something special this year to help the children and their families.” The major sponsor of this event was Irwin Lincoln and Irwin Mazda of Freehold. General Manager Travis Lo Cascio said, “As a family run business, this event touches the hearts of everyone at Irwin Lincoln and Mazda. There are so many families in need and cancer in children so tragic. We are proud to partner with Thunder 106 and looking forward to doing this every year.” The Thunder 106 Radiothon and 106-mile walk was promoted April 13 and 14 and from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. and people were invited to join “Partners in Hope” and donate monthly on the St. Jude website, via phone or text. All individuals who became a partner received a “Love Music Stop Cancer” shirt. A total of 160 walkers joined Ryan on the Spring Lake boardwalk from noon to dusk for the inaugural “Board Walk for St. Jude Kids.” An anonymous donation of $50 per person was made for each walker, adding to the already generous donations of listeners and participants. Press Communications Director of Sales, Wendy Price, said “We were so grateful and thankful to the borough of Spring Lake for their cooperation and help. It was definitely a team effort.” This year’s event was also made possible by A.J.Perri, Four Boys Ice Cream, Value City Furniture, Door Boy, Hutchins HVAC, Napa Auto Parts of Shrewsbury, Chocolate Carousel, Chef Mike’s ABG Atlantic Bar & Grill, Windmill Hotdogs, V&S Landscape Supply Co, Nissan City of Red Bank, Monmouth Park Racetrack, and Pete & Elda’s Bar & Restaurant.

AroUnD the JerSeY Shore Library Hosts “Endangered Species” Art Show
TOMS RIVER – In recognition of May 20 as global Endangered Species Day, the Ocean County Library is pleased to host Endangered Species, by Barbara Kraemer and Suzi Hoffman, throughout May in the McConnell Gallery. The aim of the multi-media collection, including watercolors, acrylics and oil paintings, is to raise awareness of animals imperiled by adverse conditions. “I’m concerned about our dramatically changing climate across the world and the threat it poses to all living things,” Suzi said. Suzi made her mark as a freelance writer and graphic designer, serving clients from major newspapers to theaters and performing arts centers. Prior to that, she served as marketing manager for Smithsonian’s National Zoological Park in Washington, DC. She majored in Art at Endicott College in New England, and studied at the Corcoran Gallery of Art School in Washington DC, Lake Placid Center for Music Drama and Art in New York, and the Paducah School of Art and Design in Kentucky. During a distinguished 42-year career,
Barbara expressed her love of art through interior design. She worked in advertising for major New York agencies, wrote and designed corporate publications, and continues writing newsletters for several organizations. She teaches art while continuing to study with renowned artists. She holds a BA in Mass Communications and Public Relations from Monmouth University. “I want to bring color and smiles to our world and painting is a way to do this,” Barbara said. “I especially like working with new artists to help expand their horizons into the world of exhibiting.” Barbara and Suzi have staged several joint art exhibits at the Jersey Shore since meeting at Pine Shores Art Association in Manahawkin. Both hope that the Endangered Species exhibit will help to remind viewers that “the wild world needs awareness and protection.” Endangered Species is free and open to the public.

H ERE ’ S T O Y OUR H EALTH Dr. Izzy’s Sound News Presented By: Isidore Kirsh, Ph.D., F.A.A.A. (N.J. Lic. #678)
Dr. Isidore Kirsh Ph.D., F.A.A.A.
Hearing Loss Can Impact Cognition Research shows that hearing loss may lead to the rapid progression of cognitive decline. The evidence in the literature suggests that: • The slow onset of hearing loss can have a significant impact on several key brain functions, including the memory, hearing, speech and language portions of cognition. • Hearing impairment is a greater risk factor for cognitive decline and dementia than other individual mid-life risks. • The proactive management of hearing loss can delay or slow the onset or progression of cognitive decline. • Studies show the use of hearing aids can slow down the rapid progression of cognitive decline. Garden State Hearing & Balance Center is on the front line of promoting cognitive
health. We now offer a computerized test of cognitive function called Cognivue Thrive. This screening tool objectively and reliably identifies changes in cognitive function that could be indicative of an impairment that requires physician referral. In our opinion, driving brain health awareness and improving access to cognitive screenings are among the most important challenges of the 21st century. Although cognitive decline is a normal part of aging, early identification of underlying conditions such as untreated hearing loss will lead to appropriate management, thus improving cognitive health. If you would like to schedule a Cognivue Thrive screening, please feel free to contact our Toms River office at 732818-3610.
His offices are in Toms River, Whiting, and Manahawkin. He can be reached at 732-276-1011 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.
How Mental Health Is Affected By Homocysteine, Serotonin And Interleukin-8 By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
During the height of the pandemic, the loneliness of people all around the world increased. As such, mental health problems increased as well. We saw many contributory factors from the lockdowns, to the effects of physically distancing ourselves from loved ones, social isolation, personal and financial loss, loss of loved ones, constant fear of catching the illness and much more. I got to thinking about this since May is Mental Health Awareness Month. Let’s first talk about exercising. This provides a boost of dopamine and other feel-good endorphins which reduces the sensation of pain, and makes you feel content and happy. Even though going to the gym can be physically stressful, research is clear, it helps reduce cortisol and epinephrine while invoking a lovely rush of endorphins. So, if you’re feeling stressed, do some exercise, even from home. There are many live-streams today. Your meals are critical. If you fill your body with foods that have very little nutritional density, you will not feel content. The use of artificial ingredients is rampant, making certain meals difficult to digest, and hard on your liver, pancreas and entire colon. I’m not going to give you a specific meal plan, or food list because I know you know what to eat, and what not to eat. Serotonin - is a feel-good neurotransmitter that people associate as an anti-depressant made in the brain. But 90 percent is actually made in the intestinal tract, hence certain
foods can make you feel good! A natural precursor to this hormone is 5-HTP. You probably know this, when serotonin breaks down, it makes you feel sleepy because it creates melatonin, the sleep hormone! High homocysteine - If you have hyperhomocysteinemia, you’re more likely to have depression and anxiety. This is a compound that is measured via a blood sample. It is reduced by folate (5-MTHF) and B12, and sometimes some riboflavin… in other words, a good B Complex. High Interleukin 8 (IL-8) - The body sometimes makes too much of this cytokine and it is often elevated in psychiatric illness such as bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorder, dementia, anxiety and others. In addition to mental health disorders, IL-8 is also associated with thyroid cancer, colitis, gingivitis, myeloma, breast/prostate cancer, migraines, rheumatoid arthritis, vitiligo and asthma. Some top ways to reduce IL-8 include black cumin seed oil, andrographis, grape seed extract, bromelain, resveratrol, cinnamon and vitamin E. In closing, I want to give honorable mention to magnesium. It’s in Epsom salts in case you like to take baths. This is an all-around good mineral that people recognize as calming. Leafy greens contain a lot of magnesium, and of course you can supplement if you prefer. It helps with relaxation, tranquility and attention span. I have a longer version of this article posted at my website, suzycohen.com in case you’d like to read it.

R.C. Shea & Assoc.
Inside The Law Educating Our Community On Nursing Home Abuse
Michael J. Deem, Esq.
By: Mike J. Deem, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates People put their elderly parent or grandparent in a nursing home so that they can be safely taken care of, so that someone can properly look after them in their old age. No one expects that these nursing home residents should get anything less than the proper care and respect that they deser ve, but with the horrifying rise in nursing care abuse, this is not always the case. According to the National Center on Elder Abuse in the United States, more than 30 percent of all nursing homes in America indulge in some form of resident abuse. Statistics show that nearly 50 percent of all nursing homes are short staffed. The staff people who do work in these facilities are underpaid, overworked, and all too often overburdened, which in t ur n leads to elder neglect and abuse. Even more alarming is the prediction that the problem will only worsen in the near future. More than 91% of nursing homes lack adequate staff to properly care for patients. A Health a nd Hu ma n Se r v ice s De pa r t me nt report found patients in understaffed nursing homes were more likely to suffer from a variety of problems, such as bed sores, malnutrition, weight loss, dehydration, pneumonia, and serious blood born infections. It’s a serious concern that will only increase with time, given that the population of
people aged 85 or older is expected to double to 8.9 million by the year 2030. Signs of abuse and neglect may be (but are not limited to) evidence such as patterns of bruising, unexplained injuries, frequent infections, bedsores, questionable hygiene, appearance of malnutrition, emotional distress, and unsanitary living conditions. Document any such evidence you observe, and bring it to the attention of your attorney. Neglect can be just as harmful in the long run as abuse, leading to additional health problems and possibly death. Nursing home abuse isn’t limited to physical abuse; there can also be emotional, verbal, and psychological abuse, where an elder is demeaned or humiliated in other ways. Many elders needlessly suffer from nursing home abuse in which they are manipulated, humiliated, or physically harmed by the very people entrusted with providing them with loving and tender care. Instances of physical, sexual and verbal abuse have taken place at the very nursing homes where elders are actually supposed to be well taken care of; unfortunately, cases of nursing home abuse in America and also in New Jersey are rising rather than falling. If you think a loved one is the victim of Nursing Home Abuse call the trial attorneys at R.C. Shea & Associates for a free consultation to discuss their rights.

–Photo courtesy Ocean County Library TOMS RIVER – The Ocean County Library is pleased to host Creative Photography, by Rob Rielly, throughout May in the 2nd Floor Gallery of the Toms River Branch during May. It consists of traditional and digital photographs, created through a variety of techniques and methods. It is Rob’s contention that photography can take two forms: Reactive, and pro-active. “Reactive photography takes place when the photographer sees something interesting and reacts by taking an image with a camera,” he explained. “Pro-active photography is a product of the photographer’s mind;
the photographer imagines something and seeks to create the image.” Rob’s creativity has been displayed in numerous galleries in the tri-state area, including New York City’s SoHo district; Ocean County College, Toms River; Red Bank, Belmar, and Shrewsbury, New Jersey; and Eagle and Doylestown, Pennsylvania. Creative Photography is free and open to the public. The Toms River Branch is at 101 Washington Street. For more information, contact the Toms River Branch of the Ocean County Library at 732-349-6200 ext. 5100, or visit theoceancountylibrary.org.

–Photo courtesy Ocean County Ocean County Commissioner Barbara Jo Crea recently addressed Ocean County’s municipal recycling coordinators during a meeting at the Northern Ocean County Recycling Center, Lakewood. By Bob Vosseller OCEAN COUNTY – Thanks to a substantial investment in the recycling program - plus an improved global market - the program is seeing its most profitable year in the last decade. “After a few down years we have returned to a more robust profit as we are the highest of all time and the highest since 2011,” said Ocean County Commissioner Barbara Jo Crea, who serves as liaison to the county’s recycling program. She added, “this is very good news for our residents, our municipalities and for our environment.” The County along with the rest of New Jersey was struggling in maintaining its regional recycling programs and keeping them cost effective since 2019. “The market for recyclables took a big hit when China began declining the materials it was being sent,” Crea said. “We found ourselves with a lot of recyclables and nowhere to send them. To develop a more marketable product, (county leaders) made the commitment to invest in the county’s recycling program in order to improve equipment and the cleanliness of the product.” “Ultimately, the Board’s investment of over $5 million along with the materials recovery facility (MRF) operator’s investment at the Northern Ocean County Recycling Center in Lakewood, and combined with an improved global market, enabled 2021 to be Ocean County’s most profitable year in a decade,” she added. Last year, more than 81,544 tons of material
were recycled in Ocean County. This translated to almost $2.4 million in profit. Revenue per ton was $123.31, which is greater than $100 a ton for the first time since 2012. Commissioner Crea noted the profits have permitted Ocean County to fully recover from losses incurred in 2019 and 2020. “If the recycling market remains consistent, the county hopes to resume revenue sharing with its municipalities in 2022.” Ocean County shares its recycling revenues with its municipalities prior to the downturn in the recycling market. Since 1995, when the Recycling Revenue Sharing Program was created, the county has distributed almost $17 million to the municipalities that participate in the county’s recycling program. The amount returned to the towns is based on the number of recyclables collected and brought to the county and the price per commodity in the current market. Municipalities use the money as needed although many invest it back into the recycling program. The improvements in the program now allow the county to accept more items as recyclable, including paperboard, chipboard, plastics 1, 2, and 5 – the number found inside the recycling triangle on the object. However, plastic bags are still not allowed, not even to hold bottles or cans. The bags jam up the machines. Additionally, new machines have helped make the operation run more smoothly, Crea said, such as two optical sorters and a high speed paper baler.
