There was even a military jeep with a mounted machine gun.Vehicles staged at the Ocean Ice Palace at noon, and the parade started at 12:45. Many of the vehicles were decorated.

I can’t get over all the people that are here.” Some 25 family members surrounded him, some dressed in red, white and blue, and most waving flags. The day was planned and organized by Brick resident Chris Lyle, who met Spital at a craft fair when he was sell ing some of the wooden toys he makes.

In conventional tax situations, the township gets about a third, with the school district and the county splitting the other two thirds. Brick benefits from the agreement since it will collect more revenue through the agreement than it would from regular taxes.
The sports dome will be built on the back portion of the 11-acre site of the former Foodtown property on Route 70. The township purchased the property in 2003 for $6.1 million.
The agreement’s term is whichever comes first: 30 years from redevelop ment project completion, or 35 years from the execution of the financial agreement, based on a percentage of project revenue and percentage of project cost, he explained. After the expiration of the financial agreement, the property is subject to conventional property taxes. Without the payment in lieu of taxes agreement, the redevelopment project could not and would not be built as designed and approved by the govern ing body, Mayor Ducey said.

In an added benefit in the agreement, township students are guaranteed time at the sports dome for no cost, the mayor said.
“What they did was they ran all the numbers and everything else, and it does meet the ‘but for,’ meaning they couldn’t afford to do it without this actual agreement being in place,” he said.95 percent of the annual service charge will go to the township and five percent will go to the county.
The site sat empty for many years, and then finally it was sold for $5 million and split and sold to two dif ferent entities.
Top: Aldi’s already has their sign up for the retail portion of the former Foodtown site.
Bottom: The sports dome is planned for the rear of the property.
The State of New Jersey allows tax exemptions, abatements and collec tion of payment in lieu of taxes, which is guaranteed in the state constitu tion, the mayor said. “In these agreements, an annual ser vice charge replaces the conventional tax on the improvements, so annual service charges are a critical tool in the municipal tool kit to effectuate the redevelopment of underutilized and unproductive properties, such as this one that sat there for years and years and years,” Mayor Ducey said.
The adoption of the ordinance and public comment will take place at the next council meeting on Tuesday, September 13 at 7 p.m.
Rides, games and all the other fun of a carnival were set up at Central Regional High School sending districts, he said. The money raised from these games were tallied together and split between all of the groups since some games would make more than others. That way, an equal share was provided to parent teacher associations from Ocean Gate, Bay ville, Clara B. Worth, H&M Potter, Berkeley Township Elementary, Cen tral Regional and Brick as well as the Island Heights Foundation.

“The whole thing started with two board members which are (political) opposites of each other,” he said. “They thought a carnival with both schools participating would be a great way to raise money for students. It is too bad our government can’t do what is right and work together for a good cause.”Michael Graichen is a Republican and Michael Blandina is a Democrat who work together on the Columbus Day Parade in Seaside Heights. Graic hen represents Seaside Heights on the Central Board and Blandina is a Brick Board of Education member who has been running the Columbus Day weekend for a number of years. The two reached out to Parlapanides and Brick Superintendent Thomas Farrell. “Brick had just created a Brick Foundation a few months ago and this would be an annual fundraiser to help support students,” Parlapanides said.
Brick school officials were contacted for information regarding this article but did not respond as of press time.
Central’s Social Media Academy stu dents created the name of the event, poster and video to help promote it. “Both Boards and Foundations have worked very hard this year we will be at Central Regional and next year we will be at Brick Township High School and rotate like that every year.”

1. Banaba Can Illicit Reductions in Blood Sugar. Corosolic acid has been reported to have immediate effects. For example, it was shown that this compound could decrease blood sugar levels within 60 min in partici pants who were tested. Banaba increases insulin sensitivity, so your levels of glucose go down. Furthermore, inflammatory cytokines also go down. This should translate to a reduced risk of diabetic complications such as heart attack and am putation. There are studies all over pubmed that will affirm these effects, and others in case you are interested.
Banaba leaf has been used for centuries to treat various ailments. Banaba is not misspelled, it is not intended to be banana, it is “banaba” and therefore has nothing to do with the delicious starchy fruit you might be thinking of. Known in the botanical world as Lagerstro emia speciosa (L.), this plant is also known as the Crapemyrtle tree! When in full bloom, these are the most beautiful trees you will ever see in the south!
The hypoglycemic effects of banaba extract come from certain leaf or seed compounds, a few of which include corosolic acid, ellagic acid, triterpenes, flavones, tannins, and others.
Be careful when using this herbal derivative because it can lower blood sugar, which can be dangerous, especially if you’re taking anti-diabetic medications or herbs. Banaba has been known to cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Just like any medication or plant-derived herb, this is a possibility.
Let’s go over some incredible benefits:
2. Banaba Can Cause Reductions in Cho lesterol. When you reduce cholesterol to a normal healthy amount (not a ridiculously low amount), your heart disease risk decreases. And when I say “cholesterol” I don’t actually mean total amounts, I mean the LDL and VLDL components. The same constituents I mentioned above in banaba play a critical role in reducing cholesterol, and studies prove this.
What’s interesting is that, unlike many other herbs that have anti proliferative activity, banaba works differently. Most other herbs cause a cancer cell to die (ie to end its own life), the term for this is called “apoptosis.” But with banaba leaf, the anti-cancer effect comes from several other mechanisms, and the overall result suggests it could benefit people dealing with kidney and possibly liver cancer. There are side effects with banaba, just like there are with other herbs and medications.
3 Remarkable Benefits Of Banaba That Can Save Your Life
I don’t recommend you try to steep anything off your tree or do a DIY project! You are more than likely going to hurt yourself. Commercial preparations of this natural supplement are sold in health food stores and online retailers.
The benefit of having more balanced blood sugar is that you have fewer cravings and can start losing weight! Any antidiabetic effect (even from medication) causes the same effect.

Remembered
Local Reporter Patricia
Pat knew what to write, and she knew what not to write (that’s an important skill they don’t teach you in journalism school).Shewon a number of awards during her time as a journalist, including the New Jersey Press Association, the New Jersey Society of Professional Journalists and the North Jersey Press Club. Her fairness earned her respect from elected officials. If a politician didn’t like her, that politician was probably up to no good. Upon hearing of her passing, former Senator Andrew Ciesla even commented “Sorry to learn of her passing. Pat covered a lot of my public life and always did a very nice job. May God bless her soul.” Her tight connections to the community showed in her writing. For her, reporting was personal. And that’s why I set out to write about the one topic she never wrote about – herself. Thank you, Pat, for all your help and all your heart. A. Miller
By Chris Lundy BERKELEY –
Miller was the name behind a lot of articles that you might have read from the last few decades. If it was about the slog of trying to recover from Super storm Sandy, there’s a good chance it had her byline. Two other favorite topics were lifting up people who needed help and tearing down corrupt politicians. She passed away recently, and when the news broke, it was followed by a wave of condolences from people with long roots in the communities she covered. She and I would talk about how negative people could be on social media. I think it would surprise her to see the warm things people said about her. Her niece reached out to share a little bit about her: “Pat Miller had a kind heart and an enormous love of animals. She loved writing and being part of her community. She is survived by her brother John Miller and wife Darlene, and niece Erin Miller.” We at Micromedia didn’t get the chance to work with her long. She started her career at the Asbury Park Press in 1984. In addi tion to her beat, she wrote a weekly column “Ocean Diary.” She spent seven years at Greater Media Newspapers and served as managing editor of the Edison/Metuchen Sentinel, the Woodbridge Sentinel and the Brick Township Bulletin. She spent eight years as a Patch editor. It was during this time that we used to cover Berkeley together, and that’s how we got to know each other. She kept trying to

Photo by Micromedia Publications steal me away, but I had a good thing go ing with Micromedia. When she got lost in a Patch reshuffling, I scooped her up. I knew she was dependable, honest, and cared about the community. We get into this business because of compassion, and Pat’s heart was as big as they come. She was drawn to underdogs. If someone was fighting insurmountable odds, she was their cheerleader. She celebrated volunteers.Andspeaking of underdogs, she had a soft spot for pets. I took inspiration from this, and it’s why I post pets up for adoption in our papers from time to time.

LAKEWOOD – A 36-year-old man has been sentenced to 20 years in New Jersey State Pris on after injuring a woman and stealing her car, officials said.
John Bailey, 36, of Bayville, previously pled guilty to Carjacking in connection with an inci dent to happened on Hearth Court in Lakewood Township on December 5, 2018. According to police, a 20-year-old woman was sitting in her car outside her home when an un known man approached her asking for directions and a ride. The woman gave him directions but declined to give him a ride. The man later returned to her car, pounded on the window and broke the glass, police said. The man then entered the car, sat on the woman and began to choke her. He then drove away with the woman trapped inside and threatened to kill her if she did not remain quiet, police said. The woman was able to escape by opening the passenger side door and jumping out as the car was in motion, police said. She then ran to a nearby house and the police were called.
On October 13, 2020, a court-ordered buccal swab was taken from Bailey and compared to the DNA profiles from the blood stain and bite mark on the victim’s leg.

The victim was brought to Monmouth Medical Center Southern Campus in Lakewood for treat ment of multiple injuries including a bite mark to her leg, a laceration on her head and wounds to her Laterneck.thatday, the woman’s car was found aban doned in Jackson with blood stains on the rear driver’s side door and quarter panel, police said.
Finally, wills are drafted by attorneys using terms and concepts that date back to medieval England. Those terms and concept have a specific meaning in the law. Often those terms are not readily understood by the non-lawyer. By attempting to draft a will using common English, in many cases a person will create an ambiguity that can only be resolved by a court at great expense to the person’s estate. In one case, when faced with two conflicting clauses concerning the payment of death taxes and not understand ing either clause, the client put both clauses into the will and said let the executor decide which clause should apply. One can only imagine what the Internal Revenue Service would have done with that logic.
Your will is the most important document you will ever sign. It only makes sense to have it prepared by an attorney knowledge able in estate law rather than try to do it your self. The modest cost of having an attorney prepare the will is offset by the potential costs if the will is not drafted properly.
Crisis Hotline Volunteers Needed
Some people will try to draft wills them selves because they want to put in certain wording. In some cases the wording that they are trying to put in their wills is either illegal, impractical or impossible to carry out. For example, one client wanted to leave all the assets to the executor named in the will and let the executor determine how the assets should be divided. In other words, the executor would be making the very decisions that the maker of the will should have made.

Beware Of Do-It-YourselfTheWill
By: Marc S. Galella, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates Marc S. Galella Esq.
Our clients’ success is our greatest reward. 732-505-1212 • RCSHEA.COM It happens several times each year, a client walks into my office with a document entitled “Last Will and Testament” and asks me to review it. The document is always a will that the client attempted to draft on his or her own. In some cases they used a form book from the library, in other cases they used an online service or a software program which they purchased. In a few instances, they will attempt to copy another will, either their own prior will or someone else’s. In almost every instance, the document does not meet the requirements for a will in the State of New Jersey putting them in a position where they either have no will at all or which requires a court to interpret the document for them, which could cost their estates a lot of money. I believe that drafting your own will is like trying to remove your own gall bladder. There is a small chance that you may do it right, but there is a far greater chance that you won’t. In over 100 do-it-yourself wills that I have reviewed, not one was a valid will that would have been probated with the Surrogate’s office.

R.C. Shea & Assoc. Inside The Law
When I ask the client why they attempted to draft their own will, the most common answer I receive is that they wanted to save money. Other times they will tell me that they wrote the will themselves because an attorney refused to prepare the will they way they wanted it. In one instance a client told me he drafted his own will because he did not understand the “legalese” he saw in wills and he wanted a will that he and his family couldLookingunderstand.atthevarious reasons why people draft their own wills I find that most of them are not valid. As noted, the most common reason people try to make their own wills is to save money. This is most often an illusion. In Ocean County the average cost of preparing a will varies from $100 to $200. The cost of having to go to court if the will is not drafted property can be as high as $2,500 to $3,000. In a worst case scenario, the court may rule that there is no will at all, thus subjecting the estate to go through administration, where the cost of posting a surety bond could easily exceed $1,000.00 each year in an average estate. Clearly, any savings of trying to write your own will could be wiped out by the potential costs if the will is not drafted properly.

JERSEY SHORE - The monarch butterfly is easily recognized by their vibrant orange wings. Monarch butterflies are pollinators, like bees. Pollinating is critical to the sur vival of our planet. In doing so, monarch butterflies are also an important food source for other insects, bird, and small animals. During the fall millions of monarch but terflies take on the migration to overwinter in Mexico and to some locations along the California coast. When spring arrives monarchs return to breeding areas and the cycle begins again. Their migration is con
Monarch Butterflies Facing Battles For Survival
sidered to be one of the most spectacular on the planet. Some theories as to the causes of their decline are the loss of milkweed which is needed for monarch caterpillars to grow and develop. Milkweed is the only plant they lay their eggs on. Once the eggs hatch, the caterpillars will consume massive amounts of milkweed leaves. Sadly, the monarch butterfly population has been steadily declining at enormous rates. Some reasons for the decline are the drought conditions in areas in the western United States contributing to reduced availability of milkweed in late summer. Using insecticides and herbicides to con trol insects and weeds causes unintended
Around the Jersey shore consequences for the monarch butterfly. Habitat is lost from development and the decaying of aging trees in the overwinter ing sites in California. The illegal logging in overwintering sites in Mexico is also creating habitat loss. We can help the monarchs by planting milkweed and butterfly nectar plants, thereby creating a monarch butterfly habitat. Planting milkweed helps the cat erpillars grow and develop. Nectar plants provide energy as they breed, for the migratory journey, and to build reserves for the long winter. When growing these plants avoid using pesticides. Without nectar plants in bloom for the monarch to feed on when they need to fly, they will not have any energy to continue and reach their destination. If we create a monarch habitat in our gardens, this will help to reverse their decline. If you would like to raise and release mon arch butterflies, there is much information online. I would be happy to provide you with some direction as well. The information for this article from was gathered through multiple sources so statistics may vary slightly.
