Director of the Ocean County Board of Com missioners John “Jack” Kelly shared some of the history that began Carl Block’s service to Ocean County 35 years ago. “Carl was appointed first as the Ocean County Deputy Clerk in 1987,” said Kelly. “Then in 2003, and again in 2008, Carl was elected as the County Clerk.” In 2010, Kelly and then-Freeholder John Bartlett met with Block to ask him to consider leaving his elected position to take on the role of Ocean (Officials - See Page 8)

County’s Director of Consumer Affairs sixteen years ago. Meanwhile, Scaturro’s lifelong com mitment to serving his country and its people started before he even hit his eighteenth birthday. At just 17 years old, Scaturro joined the United States Army. He later became a founding mem ber of the Brick Township Police Department in Officials: Continued From Page 1 1966. Scaturro ultimately served as the head of the detective bureau. “Stephen Scaturro served 27 years as a legis lative aid to Senators Andrew Ciesla and James Holzapfel,” read Clerk of the Board of Commis sioners Michelle I. Gunther from a proclamation prepared in Scaturro’s honor. “(He is) a veteran of both the United States Army and the United States Air Force.” Scaturro also devoted time to community ser vice and assumed various leadership roles. He was once the President of the Brick Township Chamber of Commerce. Scaturro not only served as President of the Brick Township Rotary Club but was also named the Rotarian of the Year in 1997.As the head of the Ocean County Director of Community Affairs, Scaturro received credit for transforming the department from a small county agency to the leading consumer affairs office in the state. “He has worked closely with local police depart ments, the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office, and the State Attorney General on numerous an ti-fraud initiatives,” Gunther read. “And worked with the Ocean County Office of Senior Services to protect the county’s 200,000 older adults.”

According to Vicari, New Jersey’s attorney general recognized Scaturro for changing how Consumer Affairs agencies operate and used Ocean County as a model. Each of the Ocean County Commissioners took time to express gratitude to Scaturro for his service and wish him well on his retirement.

Scaturro’s role in Consumer Affairs included what was referred to as “tireless work” to protect the economy in Ocean County. He divided his focus between mom-and-pop businesses and recognized the importance of tourism in helping seasonal companies prosper.

A member of the state motor vehicle com mission, Scaturro previously served as the vice president of the New Jersey County and Munic ipal Affairs agencies. Scaturro continues as the Vice President of the Ocean County Vocational Technical Schools Board of Education.

Scaturro returned the thanks with some short remarks and recalled the department’s role in the worst of times, including Superstorm Sandy and the pandemic. “Last year, we have over 9,000 cases that were processed through Consumer Affairs,” Scaturro said. “Consumer Affairs is a department where we have weights and measures. In the very be ginning, we had constriction inspections, where we were responsible for every township in the county.”Scaturro called out several people by name, ending with the people closest to his heart. In thanking his family for their support, Scaturro revealed that he and his wife Ruthanne have six children, eleven grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren on the way.

Ojedo came to play with the Ocean County Drum Circle for the first time last month. He brought along his young daughter who clung to her father as he played an instrument known as a shekere. Ojedo said he’s played with African drum circles in the past. Ojedo’s shiny red instrument is actually made from a gourd and contains beads. It emits a pleasant sound that adds to the others. On the opposite side of the cir cle, a woman adds to the rhythm with a rainstick. Cymbals, triangles, and a tam bourine accentuate different tones than those made by the snares and bass drums.

White haired se niors connect with millennials and young children as they all fall into a reflective trance to the beat of various percussion instruments.Thefeeling of acceptance and non-judg ment appears to be a primary goal of the participants.

Three young women appeared at last month’s Drum Circle and followed Fox’s lead. They swayed their hips slightly as big smiles overtook their faces. While each of the individuals plays a tone of their own, the conversion of rhythms almost sounds therapeutic.

Some of the drummers appear more experienced than others and initiate the beginning beats. However, no one has sheet music or seems to follow any par ticular“Earthorder.myBody, Water my Blood, Air my Breath and Fire my Spirit,” chanted drum circle participants as they set the mood to one of their sessions. Whether people come to play, to dance, or to listen, the experience seems to create a calming effect. A connection of strangers through soothing tones brings a few moments of peace in a world filled with angst. The Ocean County Drum Circle returns to Mathis Plaza on September 11 at 2 p.m. All are invited to attend and seek more information about the group on their Facebook page.

Handshy is survived by his wife of 36 years, Shirley; his sister Kathee Rankin and brother-inlaw Frank; and nieces and nephews Harmony, Evelyn, Faith, Frank Jr., Rhaya, Cameron and Darran. His parents, Emery and Evelyn Hand shy, and his sister Beth predeceased him. Handshy grew up in the Silverton section of Toms River and lived in South Toms River for more than 30 years, the obituary states. He previously served in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War and also began as an ap prentice pipefitter in 1977 with Plumbers and Pipefitters Local Union 9 in Englishtown. He continued this career for 35 years before retiring in 2012.

When your eyes appear to be perfectly healthy, even to your doctor, yet you continue to have issues with your vision, it may be a form of dementia called “posterior cortical atrophy” (PCA). PCA occurs when the occipital lobes in the posterior of the brain are damaged. PCA is an easy condition to miss, but one of the key symptoms is called “simultanagnosia,” the inability to see more than one thing at a time. PCA symptoms appear earlier than those of Alzheimer’s Disease, usually in people between 50 and 60 years old and include difficulty identifying one item from a pile or group. While some medications may be prescribed, assistance in home modification from a professional is recommended.

P.S. One of the signs that Posterior Cortical Atrophy may be causing your vision problems is accompanying behavioral changes such as increased anxiety and irritability.

The politics in South Toms River isn’t as ruthless as in other towns. Handshy and Champagne were Democrat mayors. A longtime Republican member of the council, Oscar Cradle, also had fond memories of the man, despite arguing about issues.

Champagne said after his own term, Handshy carried on with these projects and even more. He also recalled the mayor reading to South Toms River Elementary School

“He was pivotal in that,” Cradle said. “It was because of his hard work that it got done.”

Colabella pointed out that he, Kelly, and Block had all worked in the county clerk’s office at some point. Ocean County Surrogate Jeffrey Moran also took time to reminisce about working with Block, as did the other county commissioners.Kelly,generally a stickler in holding people to five-minute comment lim itations, made an exception when it came to giving both public servants a proper sendoff. Block recalled that when he worked at Shop Rite and Foodtown, he did his job well. However, his work as a mayor, clerk, and administrator meant the most to him. Block’s personal goal was to improve things for people. In each of the positions he held, Block said that any accolades he received also reflected the work of the people who worked for him, supported him and helped him. Block went through an extensive list of names of people who assisted him during his various leadership roles in governmental service. His remarks included assurances that his succes sor Michael J. Fiure would do well. Block also expressed confidence that Tristin J. Collins appeared to have the “acumen and ability” to replace Fiure as Assistant County Administrator.

Ocean County Clerk Scott M. Colabel la came with veteran employees from his office who had fond recollections of working with Block.

The last two Ocean County Commis sioners meetings included discussions regarding Block and Scaturro’s re placements. Many advocated for Block to stay in his role for an extended pe riod, while some questioned Collins’ credentials.TheCommissioners appointed Sca turro’s Deputy Director Ed McBride to head up Consumer Affairs. How ever, in a prior meeting, members of the public asked why the position was opened to outside applicants. The Asbury Park Press reported that state Assemblyman John Catalano expressed an interest in the position.

“As our administrator, Carl oversaw numerous projects, including the con struction of a new county jail,” Kelly shared. “Many new parks, upgrading the county’s technology department, and most recently working on the new social services building and now the new courthouse annex.” According to Kelly, Block worked closely with Julie Tarrant, Chief Financial Officer, on budgetary con cerns that impact county tax rates. “Carl truly excelled during Super storm Sandy when he led our profes sional staff in dealing with the after math of the county’s worst disaster,” said Kelly. “He helped provide relief to all of our 33 communities, but especially to the shore towns, which were most impacted by the devastating storm.”Kellyalso credited Block for his work during the COVID epidemic as county officials collaborated with the Board of Health to set up vaccination sites. Before his roles in county govern ment, Block served as Stafford Town ship’s mayor for 26 years. After Gunther read the formal proc lamation honoring Block, several officials and members of the public spoke about Block’s public service.

“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.”

“Brick had just created a Brick Foun dation a few months ago and this would be an annual fundraiser to help support students,” Parlapanides said. Central’s Social Media Academy students cre ated 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.” Brick school officials were contacted for information regarding this article but did not respond as of press time. website, jerseyshoreonline.com

Renee Thomaier Retired New Jersey Licensed Wildlife Rehabilitator JERSEY SHORE - The monarch butter fly is easily recognized by their vibrant orange wings. Monarch butterflies are pollinators, like bees. Pollinating is critical to the survival 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 butterflies take on the migration to over winter 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 considered 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 need ed 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 control insects and weeds

Monarch Butterflies Facing Battles For Survival causes unintended consequences for the monarch butterfly. Habitat is lost from development and the decaying of aging trees in the overwintering 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 caterpillars grow and develop. Nectar plants provide energy as they breed, for the migratory journey, and to build re serves for the long winter. When grow ing 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.Ifyou would like to raise and release monarch butterflies, there is much in formation 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.

Stay Mentally Fit: Exercising your mind can help your brain perform at its best. Participating in cognitively stimu lating activities may help sharpen certain thinking skills that tend to diminish with age. Have fun engaging your brain by reading books, playing games and doing puzzles.

Exercise Regularly: Exercising your body can help keep your brain in shape. Research supports a strong link between physical activity and brain health. It is recommended to get at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity a week. Any activity that gets your heart pumping counts as aerobic activity, such as walk ing, dancing, and biking.

You have the power to optimize your cog nition by adopting a combination of key healthy lifestyle habits and being aware of your overall wellness. Studies show that taking proactive steps may help reduce your risk of memory loss and other forms of cognitive decline. Depicted below are evidence based recommendations to proactively manage lifestyle-related risk factors and certain medical conditions that may affect cognition.

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. 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.

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. 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.

DISTRIBUTED BY DEAR PHARMACIST, INC. 3 Remarkable Benefits Of Banaba That Can Save Your Life

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.

Still, I feel that the pros outweigh the cons with banaba. You can ask your practitioner if it’s something that could help you. Also, if you would like to read a more detailed version of my article visit suzycohen.com.”

3. Banaba May Support Healthy DNA.

Let’s go over some incredible benefits:

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

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.

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.

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!

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.

For Parents With Legal Issues

a

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. 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.

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.

Back To School Supplies

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.

By: Marc S. Galella, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates Galella River, NJ

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.

Photo of the week

In the August 20 edition of the Berkeley Times, there was an incorrect name in the article “Manitou Park’s Hero Rob Taylor Holds Court.” The name of the represen tative from Phi Beta Sigma fraternity was Chris Melvin. We apologize for the error.

Correction

In addition to the most cutting edge podiatric tech nology, Advanced Foot & Ankle has professional-grade consumer products you need for immediate relief. They offer a great selection of diabetic shoes, for example, as well as custom-made orthotics which provide arch support and help correct the imbalance in patients’ feet.

Advanced Foot & Ankle ac cepts most insurance plans. (Medicare covers one pair of diabetic shoes per year!)

One of Advanced Foot & Ankle locations is 601 Route 37 West, 400 Lacey Road in Whiting (in the Stop and Shop Shopping Center)

By having strategically-locat ed offices, an experienced and focused staff, and tons of treat ment methods and equipment at his disposal, Dr. Amoss is able to easily achieve his goal of getting you fast comfort and relief. When it comes to diseases like melanoma, for example, speed is absolutely critical. The most deadly form of skin cancer, melanoma has an especially poor prognosis on the foot because it often goes unnoticed for a long time. Dr. Amoss diagnosed several of these cases last year, which probably saved those patients’ lives.But sometimes conditions aren’t as complicated as much as some of the larger podiatrist offices try to let on. Dr. Amoss remembers one recent patient who came in after being with one such practice. “These eight doctors had exhausted all treatment options for this in dividual in pain,” he said. After years of getting the runaround, they told him there was noth ing they could do. The patient came limping into Advanced Foot & Ankle with what Dr. Amoss diagnosed in a matter of minutes as a simple corn on the tip of his toe. “We gave him a customized foot pad which helped him tremendously, and by the next day he came in to thank us and tell us how much better he was doing,” Dr. Amoss said. “He couldn’t believe he waited and wasted several years with this other group of doctors.” At Advanced Foot & Ankle, you’ll get fast and customized treatment from a doctor you can trust. Give them a call to day at 732-350-0100 and their very accommodating staff will be able to make an appoint ment for you with Dr. Amoss right away. And as the “urgent care of the lower extremity,” emergency appointments are also available. Advanced Foot & Ankle is located at 400 Lacey Road in Whiting (in the Stop and Shop Shopping Center) and 601 Route 37 West, Suite 300 in Toms Riv er (in front of the Ocean Eye Institute). Or check out their website AdvFootandAnkle. com for more information.

After that, Dr. Amoss knew it was time to go out on his own, so he opened Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists in Whiting. 17 years later, the practice is going strong and recently opened a new location in Toms River to be closer to Communi ty Medical Center, where he’s a surgeon on staff. Critically, this new foothold also allows him, as a specialist in diabetic foot care, to help the growing dia betic community in the area. While expanding served a logistically necessary purpose, Advanced Foot & Ankle has never lost its personal touch. You’ll never just be passed off to whichever doctor is on the clock that day, because Dr. Amoss is proud to be a solo practitioner. “The patients see me and only me,” he said. “It’s good continuity of care.” His tight-knit support staff of seven ensures that you get the streamlined care you deserve. That’s crucial in the field of Podiatry because, after all, things can get serious when it comes to Diabetes and foot complications. Luckily, Dr. Amoss is an Amputation Pre vention Specialist as well as a Certified Wound Specialist. Less serious conditions like hammertoes, ingrown nails, bunions, and athlete’s foot can be treated in the office, often during your initial visit! “We’re very conservative,” Dr. Amoss assures future patients. “I’m surgically trained but I only like to perform surgery when all other conservative means have been exhausted. It’s go ing to be painless.” He makes that possible by developing treatment plans for each spe cific patient. Rest assured, Advanced Foot & Ankle is fully equipped to do so as soon as you come in. Both offices have digital X-rays so they can almost instantly see what’s going on and review it with the patient. They also have a diagnostic ultrasound to diagnose soft tissue conditions, as well as a laser for treatment of pain and neuropathy, a painful nerve condition caused by diabetes and other issues. They even offer MicroVas therapy, which gives much needed relief to patients with high levels of diabetic neu ropathy, as well as vascular or PAD testing.

Dr. Scott Amoss, DPM, CWS is a lot more than a “foot doc tor,” as people often mistake podiatrists for. In reality, “we provide comprehensive lower extremity care,” he said. So yes, if your foot hurts, Dr. Amoss will be happy to help. However, that barely scratches the surface of all the conditions he sees and the treatments he provides.Dr.Amoss (pronounced like “famous Amoss”) grew up in nearby Ocean Township and has been connected to the Jersey Shore community and greater New Jersey area his entire life. Originally, he earned his Bachelor’s degree in chem istry at Rutgers and spent a few years in the chemical industry. However, that feeling of wanting to make a difference in people’s lives that drives all physicians caught hold of Dr. Amoss. He liked podiatry in particular because of its ability to help people really quickly. “You can immediately have a positive impact on someone’s life. They come in pain, and can leave virtually pain free.” Scott Amoss became Doctor Scott Amoss when he graduated fourth in his class with numer ous honors from the New York College of Podiatric Medicine in 2000. He then completed a two year residency focusing on orthopedic, vascular, plastic, and reconstructive surgery, in addition to training in internal and emergency medicine, der matology, and radiology.
