Winning The Assembly Spot Sauickie told The Jackson Times, “This has been a surreal experience. It isn’t something I expected to do anytime soon but the circumstances in which the seat opened up were unfortunate with the passing of Assemblyman Dancer. “I viewed it as a position that I could continue to do some good for Jackson by giving Jackson more representation on the state level which I feel we’ve been severely lacking. Ocean County in general, Jackson and Plumsted is represented in the district and in general I felt there were a lot of issues that Jackson experiences that a lot of municipalities in Monmouth, Middlesex and Burlington also experience,” Sauickie added.The12th district is divided up in a com plex fashion extending from Old Bridge to New Hanover Township; Middlesex, Mon mouth, and Ocean Counties each represent around 30% of the district’s population, with the remainder in Burlington County. Sauickie said, “by getting into this I can help more people in more places and the position itself was occupied by somebody who really set the bar. He really was some body who I looked up to and admired. I admired him because I got into running for office really because it is my home town. I really felt I could do some good things for it.”

Three GOP Contenders Sauickie was one of three GOP candidates who had filed to run in the special election convention for the seat. He was to have sought reelection for his second term as a councilman in Jackson in November. The other candidates were Dominick Cuozzo, a Plumsted Township Committeeman who took office earlier this year and former three term Jackson Councilman Scott Martin. Sauickie received the support of Brenda Dancer, the late assemblyman’s widow. “That was quite an honor,” he said. George Gilmore returned to his role as county GOP chairman last month in a close race against Ocean County Sheriff Michael Mastronardy. Gilmore was backing Cuozzo, who is also the pastor of the Bible Baptist Church in Plumsted.
Cuozzo reportedly supported Phil Riz zo in the 2021 Republican gubernatorial primary and Mike Crispi in his challenge to incumbent 4 th District Congressman Christopher Smith (R-Manchester) in this year’s Republican primary. He also backed Gilmore in his comeback in July. No Endorsements
12th District State Senator Sam Thompson (R-Old Bridge) did not endorse a candidate in the race nor did the three other Repub lican County chairs in the district, Shaun Golden in Monmouth, Robert Bengivenga in Middlesex, and Sean Earlen in Burl ington.According to the rules that were agreed upon by each of the four Republican County chairs, there was one ballot with no runoff in the machine vote, meaning that the ulti mate victor could win with as little as 34% of the vote.
As for the proposed house of worship set for the eastern portion of the site, off South Hope Chapel Road, Borden said it was a permitted use in that zone though subject to specific conditions. Those conditions dictate that religious services would be conducted daily in the 8,700-square-foot building and there would be a social room in the building.Borden added that no weddings or school operations would be allowed to occur in the house of worship, which is proposed for a 5-acre lot where 2-acre lots are required. He noted that the 35foot height meets the requirements of the local ordinance. The Swanborne application has been the subject of discussion for a number of years and has a General Develop ment Plan (GDP), which is an overall layout of what an applicant is proposing at a Thesite.GDP does not however, include a specific description of each element of the planned development. Such details are fleshed out during presentations before the Planning Board. Planning Board member James Hurley pointed out that the applicant’s GDP did not include a house of worship. Giunco responded that the current proposal was “substantially similar” to the GDP that was approved and while the GDP wasn’t being discarded, there were several “modifications” being made.Noconclusion was made from the discussions about the GDP and house of worship’s addition to it. Whether the GDP will require an amendment for its conclusion is a matter expected to be discussed further next month. The public had a chance to ask questions after a lengthy amount of testimony.Resident Cindy Zanki of East Veter ans Highway expressed her fear that “the high density is going to affect the neighborhood. It can take me 10 minutes to get out of my driveway now. At certain times it takes 15 minutes.” She also shared her concern about people exiting the development and that most of the lots in the vicinity are one acre. She said the proposal wasn’t “consistent with the neighborhood of 1-acre and 3-acre lots.” Zanki questioned the quarter-acre lots in the application stating the plan “is going to have a major impact on the area.” She was opposed to grant ing a variance that would allow eight apartments in each affordable housing structure.

The applicant was represented by attorney John Giunco while Planner Ian Borden presented the application to the Planning Board and according to a legal notice, the application proposes to subdivide the property to permit the construction of an inclusionary residential development with 253 units. This will include 205 single-family homes (two existing residences will remain); a lot for the construction of six buildings containing a total of 48 rental units that would be affordable to very low-, low- and moderate-income families and individuals; and a lot for the construction of a two-story house ofTheworship.siteexists within Jackson’s Re gional Growth 2 zone and the proposed uses are conditionally permitted in that zone. Public water and sewer utilities would serve the development. A variance is being sought by Swan borne, LLC, in order to allow the affordable housing buildings to have eight units per building, where a local ordinance restricts that number to four units per building. A previously proposed plan called for 42 units of affordable housing but that figure has now been extended to 48Duringunits. Borden’s overview of the ap plication, he stated a buffer would be included as a barrier between wetlands on the property from the areas to be developed.Headded that the project also in cludes an outdoor recreation area that would feature a toddler play area, a nature trail, a basketball court, and a play structure. No recreation building however is planned for the property. The residential portion of the project would be built in three phases accord ing to Borden. The first phase would include 78 homes and one affordable housing building while the second would add 64 homes and three afford able housing buildings. The third phase would consist of 61 homes and two affordable housing buildings. The minimum lot size for the homes would be 10,000 square feet which is approximately a quarter-acre. Borden said this size meets the township’s requirements, adding no variances were being requested for any of the single-family lots. His testimony included that the af fordable housing buildings would be two stories under 35 feet in height, and of the 48 rental units there would be 12 two-bedroom apartments and 36 three-bedroom apartments. Each unit would have parking spaces provided. Borden said he feels the site is suit able for buildings with eight residen tial units. He also made the case that a variance could be granted “at no substantial impact to the public good.”
Soon we realized that there was no place quite like Toms River, a town that has grown in so many ways, but maintains the feeling of a small-town communi ty and much of that feeling is due to the Toms River Regional School District. The last few years have been difficult for every one, and they have cer tainly been challenging for our beloved district. Throughout our region, school districts have faced unprecedented changes and difficulties and Toms River has been no differ ent, from financial strain due to state aid cuts, a long and costly superin tendent search, building delays and the ongoing pressures our teachers and staff carry every day.

This is a scary moment. The Supreme Court just dismantled abortion rights across America. As a re sult, twenty-six states could outlaw abortion, including 13 that have passed “trigger” laws to take effect immediately after the Court overturns Roe v. Wade. This news should set off alarm bells for all Amer icans. Our fundamental freedoms are coming un der attack by a hyper-par tisan supermajority on the Court. And this could just be the beginning. But there’s a way to fight back, which is why I’m urging Congress to pass the Judi ciary Act of 2021. The Judiciary Act would rebalance the Supreme Court by adding four new seats, giving us 13 justices in total. It’s just what we need to move away from extremely partisan rulings and restore the legitimacy of the Court - and it’s been done before. In fact, Congress has changed the size of the Supreme Court seven times already in our nation’s history. A recent poll showed that the major ity of Americans support expanding the court again now.It’spast time for Congress to get on board with this crucial bill. Frank Ranuro Point Pleasant cowards!All25 of those who switched sides were Re publicans. I say “switched sides” because they’re not on our side any more.

They didn’t think that the veterans deserved the health care automatically. The Republicans wanted to vote every year to see if they would continue paying the bill for healthcare for America’s veterans. Could you imagine? You’re a Gulf War vet. You get home with a host of lung problems. For 15 years the government has said you’re not worth taking a community and school district that provided ac cess to both a rigorous and inspiring curriculum, while also a variety of enrichment opportunities through the arts, athletics, and clubs that to this day I credit my success in adult hood. I knew then I had found my “hometown.”

The PACT Act will help our men and women who were exposed to toxic chemicals while protecting our way of life. Many of them were manning burn pits during the call of duty, breathing in chemicals as weapons were incinerated. On August 1, the VFW posted this: “Instead of voting to advance the Hon oring our PACT Act to the president’s desk, 25 senators changed their votes and no longer support toxic-ex posed veterans. This is the same bill 84 senators voted in favor of in June. No more delays! No more games! The Senate must pass the PACT Act now!” I was glad to see the VFW call these senators out for what they are – two-faced

care of. And then once the PACT Act passes, your ail ments get covered for one year and one year only, and then you have to hope that Congress wants to continue paying for you to get better. That’s what they blamed it on anyway. Everyone in Washington knows it’s because the Republicans weren’t getting their way on an environmental bill so they took it out on veterans. I’ll never forget Ted Cruz high-fiving other senators on the senate floor when the veteran vote went down. All 25 of these Senators voted for the bill earlier this year when it was the exact same! When it finally did pass, there were 11 senators who still voted against it. All 11 wereRememberRepublicans.that when it comes to voting.

Bill Would Expand Support For Low-Income National Guardsmen And Reservists are ineligible for the program.Inaddition to expand ing eligibility of the SSVF program, the leg islation would also re quire the Secretary of Defense to submit an an nual report to Congress detailing food and housing insecurity experienced by current reserve component service members, across all seven components of the Reserves and National Guard. “The SSVF program has proven to be a tremendous success, helping thou sands of veterans and their families find quality, affordable housing,” said Sen. Booker. “Yet, former members of the National Guard and Reserves are often ineligible to access the benefits of this program despite the critical role they played in protecting our nation and serving our communities. With this legislation, we will ensure that we honor our commitment to those who have served and sacrificed for our country by finally expanding eligibility of the SSVF program to national guardsmen, reservists, and their“Thefamilies.”NationalCoalition for Homeless Veterans (NCHV) applauds Sen. Cory Booker for introducing the Support ive Services for Reserve Component Veterans and Families Act. Those who served in the National Guard and Military Reserve have been ineligible for many benefits when not federally activated. This important legislation would remove this barrier to entry from the Department of Veteran Af fairs’ Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) program,” NCHV CEO Kathryn Monet stated. “NCHV thanks Senator Booker for expanding access to SSVF for veterans of both the Guard and Reserve, bringing us one step closer to achieving our mis sion of ending veteran homelessness.”

“Retired and separated Nation al Guardsmen often face the same housing challenges as their former active-component brothers and sis ters, yet many are ineligible for help from of the VA’s Supportive Services for Veteran Families program,” said retired Brig. Gen. J. Roy Robinson, President of the National Guard As sociation of the United States. “We applaud Senator Booker for this bill that would correct this longstanding inequity.”“OurNational Guard and Reserve are at the forefront when crisis hits,” said Dave Pearson, Assistant Direc tor of Veteran Services for Catholic Family & Community Services in the Diocese of Paterson and Co-Chair of the New Jersey SOS Veteran Stake holder Group. “Whether it’s a flood, hurricane or national emergency, it’s always our citizen soldiers who an swer the call and respond to the need. We support Senator Booker’s initiative in extending SSVF emergency housing services to our National Guard and Reserve people. Creating a safeguard for the families of these state heroes if they are in jeopardy of losing their homes is a small request for those who give so much to our communities in our most trying times.” “Soldier On supports efforts to ex pand the existing SSVF grant eligibil ity guidelines to include low-income veterans of the National Guard and their families,” said Bruce Buckley, Chief Executive Officer of Soldier On. “Service members should never be in a position where they are home less or at-risk of homelessness. By expanding SSVF grant eligibility we can ensure that an even larger portion of our veteran population can access housing stabilization services in their local“Thecommunities.”VeteransMulti-Service Center (VMC) is proud to support the expan sion of SSVF eligibility to many Na tional Guardsmen and Reservists who are in need of these valuable services,” said Peter R. Wine, SSVF Program Manager, The Veterans Multi-Ser vice Center. “The current proposal is a more equitable solution for the men and women who have served our country and the VMC is prepared to meet Senator Booker’s call to action.”
WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) announced legis lation to expand the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) program, which promotes housing stability among very low-income veteran families who reside in or are transitioning to permanent housing. The Supportive Services for Reserve Component Veterans and Families Act would expand SSVF eligibility to former members of the National Guard and Reserves who have retired or sepa rated from service after having served a term of enlistment. Established in 2011, the SSVF pro gram has helped decrease veteran homelessness by 50% and assisted 850,000 veterans and their family members by permanently housing, rapidly rehousing, or preventing them from becoming homeless. However, under the program’s current guidelines, many former members of the National Guard and Reserve Component, who were not activated for federal active duty military service while serving,

He felt he could do some good and I don’t think he ever thought it was about him. It was about his constituents and what he could do for them,” Sauickie said. He noted that like Dancer, he too is a con servative Republican. “He is someone I think was able to work across the aisle and work with intelligent people and get things done. In today’s politics that is an increasingly rare thing.”Sauickie credited Dancer for being able to “stick to what he believed in and tended to align with conservative Republicans and was able to get a lot done because he was able to find people that had common ground - wheth er they were Republicans or Democrats - and that is what I am hoping to do to.”
The special election was held at iPlay Amer ica in Freehold, which is outside the district but represented a relatively central location for the district’s scattered communities. It was decided by each county chairman in the district that Dancer’s seat would remain an

“Jackson for example has 34 districts and two members that are elected to each district. It is interesting that a lot of people don’t even know about the county committees and it is an elected political position - either Republican or Democrat - and for an issue like this where the seat became vacant, this is where the Com mittee plays a critical role,” Sauickie added. Sauickie commended Monmouth County Clerk Christine Giordano Hanlon who over saw the election. “She laid out the rules and the counties agreed to those rules and they were given to the candidates.”
“Christine did a phenomenal job on this and pulling it together in a relatively short time. The law requires that the seat be filled within 35 days after being vacated,” Sauickie said. Sauickie said the vote was taken, “they tallied the votes and they gave us the final count of each and I came out on top.”

Sauickie agrees with conservative Republi cans in terms of “fiscal policies, my feelings on what is coming out of Trenton right now - in particular especially about school curricu lums. I still would work with people I think are intelligent and have good ideas and it doesn’t matter which party they are.”
“In my first 18 months I had to deal with two council president resignations and the pandemic and lawsuits against the town in cluding one from the NJ Dept. of Justice that this current council had nothing to do with,” Sauickie said. He added, “the current council has been working really hard to end these lawsuits and we reached an agreement with the Dept. of Justice and settled Jackson Trails which was a big one. We are down to two others that we expect that we will settle in the interest of everybody. It is in no one’s interest to have these lawsuits against the town. We are trying to do right by everybody.”

As the Jackson GOP did not endorse 15-year Mayor Michael Reina to run again, incumbent Councilman and current Council President Martin Flemming will be on the ballot seeking that position with Councilman Andrew Kern seeking re-election and another candidate to fill Sauickie’s seat. It is currently unknown whether Reina will run as an independent Republican for mayor or if any Democratic party challengers will emerge to oppose the Republican candidates for mayor and council. With Jackson Town ship’s form of government, no party primary is held but interested candidates must petition to run for office.

Chiafullo noted that she was more than well prepared when she went to college thanks to her preparation during her high school years, “I had a lot under my belt which was awesome. I was at school during the normal hours and then would also stay as long as I possibly could to work on stuff and do Jackson Television and there were film competitions all over the country.”

“I started to work for our TV and film program at the University and I started to get to know a lot of the faculty and got involved with it as much as I possibly could,” she added. “The Television Academy picks the students, the 40 of us and there is an editing category, a producer category, a writing category and others and all 40 interns meet every Wednesday. We became friends and we all work at different companies. There is only me and one other editing intern,” she noted. The Internship Program also provides profes sional development sessions with leaders in the television industry and customized seminars covering personal brand building and navigating the job market ahead for participating students. Interns also become lifelong members of the Foundation’s alumni giving them access to events and networking opportunities as they build their careers in the industry. Chiafullo will be working on her senior film and she has a page at gofund.me/570ebfa1 to raise money for the project.

The intern said, “I wouldn’t normally have been able to get into those programs just yet as a fresh man or sophomore but they were very good at being able to get us involved. I did a lot of editing and I noticed most of the time, no matter what class I was in I became the class editor whether it was post production or a narrative film.”
“We won for a music video and I was student of the year. They had such a cool program and you got what you put into it. I’ve called and texted them (Ferone and Noble) while I’ve been here in LA as a reminder that they are the best,” she“Myadded.parents have ultimately inspired me to chase my dreams in this industry. Since the start, they always believed in my creativity, drive and excitement in this field. Their continued support through all the unknowns of developing a career in television is what continuously inspires me to put my best foot forward and continue to strive to do more,” Chiafullo said. “In high school I did a lot of highlight reels for event videography for my own business and other people’s businesses so that is what really got me into film editing in a creative highlight style and when I went to college I got involved with the TV network and did different things offering myself as a behind the scenes video board where I was able to show off my skills.”

The prestigious Television Academy Foundation Internship program and is one of just 40 students selected from across the country for the 2022 summer program. The Foundation’s annual Internship Program provided eight-week paid internships at top Hollywood studios and production companies to college students nationwide. She has been an editing intern at Geiger Post, a post-production facility in Hollywood. “It feels surreal to be chosen for this internship by Television Academy members where I can experience a professional internship,” Chiafullo said. “I am so thankful and honored to be selected for this opportunity where I hope to network with equally as enthusiastic students as well as learn skills from professionals at my host company Geiger Post. “It has empowered me to not underestimate my skills and take as much away from this internship program as I can so I can continue my editing career after college,” she added. “This internship means a lot to me because it is the biggest step into the industry I have had so far. “I’ve been watching a lot of the editors and each of them works on different things and so I can learn from each of them. One of the things I helped on minimally was the BET awards which is something that already happened. I’ve been learning from them and they have let me practice edit some of the cool projects they are working on,” she told The Jackson Times during her sixth week of the internship. “I was part of the Jackson Television program for four years throughout high school - The Digital Media Academy. My high school Digital Media Academy teachers Mr. (Harry) Ferone and Mr. (Ethan) Noble were absolutely incredible and I used to call them my second dads. They and the whole school truly set me up for success,” she added.

Makers Of Zantac Brace Themselves For Lawsuits
The makers of the mega-popular antacid drug called Zantac are now facing potential lawsuits that could total into the billions! If that doesn’t cause stress-induced heartburn, I don’t know what does! This isn’t about whether or not the drug works. It definitely works in terms of reduc ing stomach acid. The drug was removed from the market in 2020, but now it’s coming back into focus. Zantac was recalled due to potential contam ination with NDMA (N-Nitrosodimethyl amine) which is a probable carcinogen. The alleged lawsuits now state that negligence among pharmaceutical companies producing the drug led to serious harm in patients, spe cifically cancer. You can visit the Drugwatch website to see if you can file a claim. The prosecutors say that NDMA-contami nated pills have led to cancer. The FDA must agree on some level that there’s a problem be cause they issued a swift and complete drug recall 2020. You can learn more about the actual drug recall at the FDA’s website. Go online, or watch TV, there are a lot of attor neys advertising their services to people who were adversely by the medication. You may be wondering how NDMA toxin gets into medications. It is spawned during the manufacturing process. No one is con taminating the pills. It’s just happening by virtue of normal, regular, clean production of the pill. The NDMA is introduced during the tableting process from contaminated ingredients that were sourced elsewhere. Alternatively, the contaminant results from the use of solvents and agents used during the manufacturing process. It happens all the time, and not just with Zantac. Other medi cations in this drug class could be involved, as can some popular anti-hypertensives. And this may come as a shock, but a little ‘poison’ is allowed! There is a “permissible” amount of 96 nanograms per day. So you may be consuming NDMA, and not realize it. Here you’re trying to solve one issue, and wind up with a bigger one!
The types of cancer associated with NDMA may include those of the breast, bladder, colon, lung, liver, blood, thyroid, pancreas, andHere’sothers.a5-step plan for what to do if you’ve been exposed to the medication: 1. Get a physical 2. Do bloodwork like a Chem Panel and CBC. 3. Discontinue your H2 blocker (antacid) and ask doc for a therapeutic equivalent. Consider natural remedies. 4. Change your diet, or go on one. Altering your diet will be the most important thing you do to improve the reflux situation. 5. Do not ignore. Please do not let any symptoms get swept under the rug due to your heavy workload, family needs, or whatever! Also, don’t take the “wait and see” approach. Wait and see what? If you develop cancer? No! Be more proactive than that and think two steps ahead and don’t wait and see anything. Visit your practitioner if you have any new/odd symptoms. If this topic interests you, there is much more I can share. To read a more detailed version of my article visit suzycohen.com. By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Renee Thomaier Retired New Jersey Licensed Wildlife Rehabilitator JERSEY SHORE - When we think about our dog(s) we can’t help but give them credit for being our best friend. We come home from a tough day and they are waiting anxiously to shower us with dog kisses and excitement like no other shows us. Yes, they are great companions. So great that we may overlook a time or two when they unearthed a baby rabbits’ nest or killed an opossum in our yard. Maybe they took off running when spotting a white-tailed deer. Whatever the case, the threat to wildlife is real. Globally, dogs have contributed to the extinction of almost one dozen wild animal and bird species. Maybe that doesn’t sound like a lot but today studies suggest dogs threaten nearly 200 species worldwide. Some species are already critically endangered.Inareaswhere dogs roam freely in the wild, dog owners are not concerned about the issue and continue to allow them roam. Larger terrestrial mammals suffer from predation and harassment by dogs. These same free roaming dogs, to also include feral dogs, compete with other predators (wildlife), who rely upon territory for food, breed
Man’s Best Friend – Threatening Wildlife ing and raising their young. As the human pop ulation in these areas rise, so will the number of dogs, possibly causing the problem to get worse. So why do we care? Or should we? The answer is ‘yes’ we should. While the United States has some laws to govern the care and housing of dogs, as we know, people are not always side-by-side with their dog(s) to monitor their every action. Some dogs possess a strong prey drive, potential ly becoming predators and killing wild animals. This contributes to the disruption of the ecosys tem. The food sources for wild animals become threatened as dogs compete with them for prey. Even the smallest wild animal, endangered or not, is important to the balance of nature. Whether we live in suburban America or countries far away, we need to take responsi bility for our pets. Just because you don’t see the global picture, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.The information for this article from was gathered through multiple sources so statistics may vary slightly.

“The hardest part of the whole program in my opinion was collective punishment,” Aidan Carrattini shared. “Most of the time, when one person messed up, we all had to do pushups.” Kern credited other members of the county agency for their roles in the program, as well as the Ocean County Public Safety Cadets. Chil dren who age out of the youth academy program become eligible for the cadet unit, which accepts candidates from ages 14-20. This year, Kern and one of the cadets attended a Leadership Academy in Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri. The two trained with the Army’s Military Police, lived in military barracks and worked with the Army’s drill sergeants. Ocean County’s Cadets received national rec ognition last year by achieving first place status in three separate competitions. They also won third place honors in three additional matches with cadets throughout the United States.

The boys and girls then waited to receive certif icates for their accomplishments, together with special medals draped around their necks. Sgt. Shannon Dugan opened the graduation cer emony with a few introductions, beginning with Sheriff’s Officer Alexandra Kern. Kern planned the week’s activities that gave the young recruits a taste of police training and work. Ocean County Sheriff Michael Mastronardy delivered a few brief remarks. He stressed the importance of the general public understanding and appreciating opportunities in the public safety field. “We try to have a very good experience here,” said Mastronardy. “We received funding from the Sheriff’s Foundation, which pays for everything associated with this program.” At a pre-graduation press conference with a sole reporter, the graduating class collectively invoked military etiquette with a loud “Yes, ma’am” when asked if they enjoyed the program. Many of the participants were also eager to share thoughts about their five-day jam-packed schedules. As a law enforcement agency, the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office follows many of the same rules and traditions established by the United States’ military branches. Even the younger recruits received daily marching and military etiquette training as part of their academy experience. David Rojas, a Lakewood Middle School eighth grade student, said he enjoyed learning the marching protocol as well as the facing movements. Others found different aspects of the program provided more interest. On Day 3 of training, the youth recruits pro ceeded to the Brick Municipal Docks where they had the opportunity to take a boat ride around the marina on the county’ marine unit. “Going on the boat was the best part for me,” proclaimed Jayden Randazzo, a Beachwood sixth gradeWhenstudent.thestudents returned to the Police Acad emy that day, they received SWAT orientation by way of a demonstration. “The kids got to play with all of the equipment that our SWAT team uses,” Kern shared. “They met a ton of members from our SWAT team and also saw a vehicle takedown by the SWAT team through a flashbang.” Youth recruits did their own traffic stop scenarios and participated in competitions in handcuff ing and firearms training. The winner of the handcuffing competition was Chase Battaglia, followed by Isaac Davis as runner up. Alexander Earlton won the firearms competition, while Jayden Randazzo achieved runner up status in the same Studentscategory.hadtheopportunity to learn the role fingerprinting plays in solving crimes and saw the county’s drone in action. “I liked the FATS (FireArm Training Stim ulator) machine the best,” shared sixth-grader Shan Morales. “We practiced with laser guns onThetargets.”FireMarshall presented a demonstration that sixth grade homeschooled student Isaac David found quite insightful. “If there’s a fire, they have to go into the house to inspect it,” David said. “They have to look to see what started the fire and if it was caused on purpose to hurt people.” Day Four exposed the young recruits to four legged members of the Ocean County Sheriff’s Department. Sheriff’s Officers Christine Casul lo and Michael Fiorentino and their K-9s treated the kids to a special demonstration. “They did a bite drill,” Kern said. “They then went out to find explosives in the field.”
The students also had the chance meet Sangria, a horse who was owned by Sheriff Officer Brian Stockwell. After Stockwell’s untimely death in a car crash, his family donated the horse to the Sheriff’s Office. Sheriff’s Officer Juan Mercado coincidentally introduced Sangria to the young recruits on the late Stockwell’s birthday. “The bloodhound was the coolest because he can sniff ahead and track a person down,” said John Maldonado, a seventh-grade student from Manchester.Physicaltraining took up some time on the schedule and appeared an expected regiment. While no one complained about the daily rou tines, some added drills didn’t sit well with quite a few of the kids.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Your en thusiasm is admirable. It may be tempting to initiate a new financial plan this weekend, but it is better to wait. Channel your energies into making your plans more solid and execute them later this week.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You can feel good but must do good, too, and stay focused. Finish what you started before you begin anything new. Wrap up loose ends and fulfill your obligations so you are ready for the week ahead.
LEO (July 23- Aug. 22): There’s less stress when you follow the plan. Be patient and understanding if you receive criticism, but also learn what you can from it. A partner or loved one may test your dedication and loyalty, but tensions should subside later in the week.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Keep the lines of communication open. Let a loved one know how much you value having them in your life, especially if they are struggling. Offer understanding when someone is temporarily out of sorts this week.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) : A dedication to details can help avoid misun derstandings. Make sure you proofread all communiques before you send them off. What seems like a burden today could become a blessing later this week.

VIRGO (Aug. 23- Sept. 22): Play by the rules. Carefully decide if your current plan is sus tainable or if it would be better to make a new start. A health or workplace problem will be resolved if you wait until later in the week to address it. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Never take risks when the odds aren’t in your favor. This is not the day to begin something new or make crucial decisions. However, you can enjoy time with a romantic partner or social activities with friends.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Anything you buy today at a discounted price may end up to be a mistake -- inferior materials aren’t likely to hold up over time. Do some research and wait until later in the week to purchase items that will endure.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Close the door on family problems and the past before taking on anything new. Some people in your life may not be cooperative or agreeable to day but as the week unfolds, you might begin to understand why.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Learn by doing. There’s no substitute for experience, although at times it can be a harsh teacher. The high standards you subscribe to can be helpful as the week unfolds; maintain them by learning from every misstep.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): It can be risky to put all your eggs in one basket. If you focus too heavily on material success, popularity or possessions, you may miss other opportunities. Remain open to diversity and variety in the upcoming week.
