ago, Just Believe Inc. started running an overnight shelter for extremely cold nights. Volunteers and staff who worked with the homeless population have said that they need consistency. Having one place where they can get services and referrals makes all the difference.
As a result, veterans will be getting priority placement in Larry’s Home.

It wasn’t all fun and games, though. It was also a time for reflection. Officials use this day as a time to hold a ceremony remembering those who were lost during the attacks on September 11, 2001. They do this because the festival usually falls around the anniversary, and also because it ensures that there will be a healthy crowd for it.

The entertainment was supported by community members and business donors through such things as the mayor’s golf outing, the summer program book and sign advertising.Thecrowd was circled by vendors providing food and knick knacks. A few were businesses, but most were community groups. They use these events as their primary fundraising for the year.
The Berkeley Township Historical Society was selling T-shirts as well. They also had an old train engine that used to work in the Pinewald area. It was part of a parade that morning, carried on the back of a flatbed truck. It trekked from the Central Regional Middle School’s parking lot through the area. It took two laps around Crystal Lake Healthcare, said Gerry Morey, president of the Historical Society. That train had once helped move dirt that created the manmade Crystal Lake.

He was amazing. I would highly recommend Principal Kafele.”
The engine brought attention to the organization. He said 20 members came out to help at the event, and about a half dozen people signed up as new members. The engine will be stored at the town’s Public Works until a base will be built for it, and then it will be installed at the Historical Society museum on Route 9.
Dozens of residents watched as Boy Scouts laid wreaths, speeches were recited, and officials reminded them of the importance of the event.
issues exploded recently when one board member, Heather Koenig, posted memes on Facebook that some residents said were racist. Koenig told The Berkeley Times that the postings were taken out of context. The relative of another board member, Merissa Borawski, allegedly posted anti-gay and anti-Black statements online. The next few Board of Education meetings were standing room only while residents passionately explained the history of racial inequality in the area.
“It was the fi rst time in 96 years that engine has gone around the lake,” he said.

Berkeley Recreation had activities like face painting, and there were also inflatables for the kids.
Speakers also urged people to remember those who were lost in the Middle Eastern wars after the attacks, and those who suffered health problems from responding to Ground Zero.

Next, Hermack listed flight preparation instructions, which included informing the reporter that the best place to sit in the back of the plane was facing the rear. Hermack settled in the cockpit with Kurt Stofko, along for the flight to take aerial shots of the view below. The three strapped into their seats and put on headsets to communicate with one another.
A reporter who felt somewhat fearful about flying in a small airplane had a change of heart when she joined a recent sunset patrol this past Labor
Hermack kept constant contact with the OASS base manned by volunteer Debbie Hamilton. The first checkpoint on RAM 1’s flight was marked ASARCO on the list (formerly the American Smelting and Refining Company).
Local authorities count on the sunset patrols to monitor activities at ASARCO. Reports of four off-road vehicles during the Labor Day
A banner plane flew over the ocean at a lower altitude. Hermack explained that aviation laws require a minimum of 1,000 feet altitude in areas where buildings exist. The mandate drops to 500 feet when over the water.
The Labor Day reports turned out to be somewhat benign for both of the sunset patrol flights. However, that’s not always the case.
The take-off from the Ocean County Airport was amazingly smoother than any larger aircraft. Almost immediately, one could count the number of homes in surrounding areas with swimming pools in their backyards.
The reporter prepared for landing and almost wished the flight had not come to an end. The glimpse of familiar sites from a higher vantage point proved more than a little exciting. Even better was meeting a select group of volunteers willing to give their time and expertise to add to the community’s safety.

While some might find the crystal blue hole of the Heritage Minerals site in Manchester inviting, it represents a clear danger. Crystal Lake has claimed its share of drowning victims over the years. Drivers of off-road vehicles who take delight in the surrounding terrain also take risks in visiting the prohibited area.
“I talked to the Coast Guard people when they came up,” said Hermack. “We actually found the girl, and I vectored the Coast Guard guys, into her.”
Ocean County Sheriff Michael Mastronardy. “The sunset patrols report back concerning activities in wooded areas and communicate with us when there are issues with boats and off-road vehicles in prohibited areas.”
Hermack recalled one of the most rewarding experiences he became involved with as part of the OASS. Authorities reached out to the volunteer squadron for help in locating a teenage girl who went out on a personal watercraft and was considered four hours overdue.

JohnDay.Hermack of Toms River performed preflight checks as he described his plane and shared his credentials as a pilot. He flew fighters like F-16s in the United States Air Force and ultimately spent 34 years working as a commercial airline pilot.
Hermack’s personal aircraft is a Bonanza, a single-engine airplane. According to Hermack, it’s a little bit bigger than most single-engine airplanes like Cessnas and Cherokees because it has six seats. The fact that the Bonanza has retractable landing gear makes it go a bit faster than most of the other small planes.
The sunset patrol continued and moved on to overlook the Toms River Plaza of the Garden State Parkway. Amazingly, despite it being a holiday weekend, traffic was light in both directions. The same proved true as RAM 1 flew over different bridges, including the Route 37 bridge leading into Seaside and the Route 72 bridge to Long Beach Island.
Sunbathers on different beaches looked like tiny ants from above, and only a small assortment of recreational boats were out in either the bay or ocean waters. It’s as if the summer was coming to an end all too soon.

“We were down on the southern end of the patrol when Control called and asked if I was familiar with Brigantine,” Hermack said. “They told me about the young lady and asked for help searching for her.”
As it turns out, the teenager was on a jet ski and ran out of fuel. The greenheads had decided to make her a meal, but she was otherwise unharmed.Hermack and Stofko took turns identifying various sights as they headed back to base. They spoke of sandbars growing in size, and sole buildings on at least two islands throughout the region.
sunset patrol resulted in a call to Manchester Township Police to put them on alert.
“You can see the lighthouse out there,” pointed out Hermack as he flew past Old Barney, “It still has all the scaffolding around it.”
The county provides the fuel for the small aircrafts that begin patrolling the area the weekend before Memorial Day and continue every weekend until the weekend after Labor Day. Two separate planes cover routes from as far north as the Manasquan Inlet to the southern end of the county at Little Egg Inlet.
After calling the Atlantic City approach, Hermack learned that the Coast Guard planned to send a helicopter up in the next few minutes and would be on the same air frequency.

The Attorney General’s Office of Public Integrity & Accountability (OPIA) believes the dashboard will serve as a tool for both law enforcement and the public, revealing the prevalence of various accusations, where they are surfacing, and how they are being dealt with by the internal affairs review process.Thedashboard, available at njoag. gov/iapp , represents an unprecedented and ambitious effort by the Attorney General’s Office to gather de-identified internal affairs information that had been scattered among hundreds of agencies - information that had not previously been collected in a uniform way, or shared with the public in a standardized format or central location.
Amongsaid.the features of the new dashboard is the ability to filter the data by active and closed investigations, as well as by county, agency, the complaint source, and the race of the officers and the complainants involved. The dashboard will also enable users to do sideby-side comparisons of two agencies, so the viewer can see if there is a significant disparity between the internal affairs complaints of two otherwise similar entities. The names of the officers involved are not listed.
public to look with a broader lens to see if the internal affairs system is working the way it should be.”
TRENTON – Acting Attorney General Matthew J. Platkin made a wealth of information about police agencies’ internal affairs investigations available online, in a searchable dashboard capable of filtering data by law enforcement agency, the types of allegations involved, and what, if any, disciplinary action was taken. It is believed to be the most comprehensive compilation of statewide internal affairs information to be made accessible to the public by any state in the U.S.
Tom Eicher, Executive Director of the OPIA, said, “Not many agencies or states release this information. Bringing this data to light will enable the
Eicher said the Attorney General’s Office is committed to reviewing the data to identify any patterns that might raise concerns warranting further investigation.“Wearealways looking at this data as a way to improve internal affairs policies, procedures and oversight,” the director
“The New Jersey State Association of Chiefs of Police (NJSACOP) stands firmly behind initiatives that promote transparency and build further public confidence in law enforcement,” said NJSACOP President Thomas Dellane, Chief of the Stafford Township Police Department. “New Jersey’s policing community remains the most effective in the United States. A searchable dashboard will further demonstrate how we protect and serve the public each day. We applaud Acting Attorney General Matthew Platkin for his latest program to create more accountability, while helping residents better understand how the internal affairs system works and why it is such an important tool in improving policies and procedures.”
“The New Jersey State Police is committed to transparency and accountability which helps build trust within the communities we serve,” said Colonel Patrick J. Callahan, Superintendent of the New Jersey State Police. “With this dashboard, the public will have additional insight into the internal investigations process that holds our troopers to the highest standards.”
The numbers now listed on the dashboard show the internal affairs cases active in 2021. The Office of Justice Data will update the statistics on an annual basis as new information is submitted by police agencies around the state. Dashboard refinements are also being planned for 2022 that will enable a viewer to better understand how specific complaints are adjudicated, including whether an allegation started as one type of offense but was resolved as a lesser infraction.

“Fostering strong relationships between law enforcement and communities is essential to public safety. Transparency, fairness, and mutual respect are foundational to building that essential trust,” said Governor Phil Murphy.
“Our state’s new dashboard testifies to the profound understanding of our law enforcement officers that such trust is forged by meaningful actions that reflect the crucial importance of this profession. Every effort to improve accountability among our esteemed law enforcement officers today will help better protect our community members tomorrow.”“Wetakeanother step toward greater transparency and accountability in law enforcement through the release of our Internal Affairs Dashboard,” said Acting Attorney General Platkin. “The Office of Justice Data aggregated a tremendous amount of information to give New Jerseyans insight into internal affairs cases that no other state provides. Now for the first time in state history, the public will be able to see, all in one location, the allegations and disciplinary action taken in internal affairs cases across New Jersey.”

The fi nal FDA ruling has occurred and a plethora of OTCs will be hitting the market in the near future. Truthfully, these products have existed for many years without any significant regulation. This is a new class of hearing instruments that are more affordable preprogrammed hearing aids designed for milder hearing losses. The “goal” is to make hearing aids more available to the public which in turn will eventually force the 6-major manufacturer’s (Starkey, Oticon, Phonak, Widex, Signia, Resound) of hearing aids to lower their pricing. NEWS FLASH! It is very unlikely that the top 6 hearing aids manufacturer’s will lower their pricing because many of them will also be selling OTCs directly to the public.

the “slope” of your hearing loss? It doesn’t! Unless you take the time to have your hearing evaluated by a licensed professional, you don’t even know the degree of hearing loss you have. I saw several patients last week who had a primary complaint of recent hearing loss in one ear. Both of them had impacted wax and once removed, they’re hearing wasThenormal.bottom line is you typically get what you paid for. Unless you take the time and have your hearing properly tested by a licensed hearing care professional (audiologists), you are throwing away your money.
2. Improve your lifestyle - Don’t eat too late at night and exercise to your level. Try to avoid stress and get proper sleep. We know that melatonin deficiency is associated with increased autoimmunity, so getting proper rest could make life easier. If you need help with sleep apnea, see a specialist.
In a recent study, it was once again shown that high glucose intake (ie lots of sweets) spawns a lot of free radical damage and thus, Th17 overactivity. So you can now develop your own personal strategy to lower Th17, and thus, improve your autoimmune condition. Do these 3 important things and start now, you don’t have to wait.
3. Supplement your diet - Eating right will help with gut integrity, but sometimes it’s not enough. Therefore, consider nutrients that are known to reduce Th17 overactivity. These include chelated zinc, vitamin D, and folate (only the methylated form, not folic acid).
If you are not responding to your dietary changes within a few months, or you experience anything untoward, please contact your doctor. Remember, your goal is to reduce your Th17. If you find this topic interesting, please sign up for my free newsletter, and I’ll email you a longer, more detailed version. In that, I will share my thoughts about histamine-containing foods, CBD and kombucha. This is available at suzycohen.com.

If your own body is killing itself, you don’t stand a chance. You can modify the self-driven attack with a choice made at every meal. That choice is to avoid foods and beverages that contain sugar or other sweeteners which often produce the same glycemic high in the body.
How Sugar Worsens Autoimmune Diseases And 3 Easy Solutions
I’ll tie in a nice neat bow right now: Sugar increases T Helper-17 (Th17) cells, which then leads to suppressed immunity and more self-driven autoimmune attacks. Sugar ultimately leads to increased rates of obesity, and thus more health problems including heart disease, stroke, Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, asthma, low back pain and arthritis.
1. Change your diet - Completely eliminate all sugary foods, all candy, and sweets, and all refined carbohydrates like bagels and white rice. I would greatly minimize complex carbohydrates as well. Things in this category include brown rice, beans, starchy vegetables like peas and wholegrain bread.
We’re seeing more research lately about how spikes in sugar cause your body to attack itself with more vigor. Autoimmune disorders are exacerbated by eating a lot of foods and beverages that are high in sugar. The same goes for both refined and complex carbohydrates. That statement will fly in the face of what many nutritionists believe, but I’m writing an opinion column, and that’s my opinion. I’d keep the refined ones out of your diet, and the complex ones to a minimum!
By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
Barbara “Bobbi” Jo Crea, the liaison to Recycling and the Department of Solid Waste Management, remarked, “we are very pleased to announce that for the fi rst half of 2022 we are returning more than $966,832 to municipalities that partner with the county’s recycling effort.”
She said 2022 marks the return of the recycling revenue sharing program after a forced hiatus that began in 2018 which at that time, the market for recyclables virtually collapsed after China announced it would no longer purchase many materials from United States suppliers.
Kelly noted that after the recyclables market tumbled in 2018, the county invested more than $7.5 million into its recycling program. “We upgraded our materials processing facility in Lakewood to be able to compete in this new more difficult market.”
This year marks the 21st anniversary of the attacks on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and Flight 93, that killed nearly 3,000 people.
“The program shifted from profitable to unprofitable, the county bore the cost of recycling without passing the fees onto the municipalities, John P. Kelly, Director of the Board of Commissioners said.
TYPES OF COLOR BLINDNESS
Colors make a huge difference in how we see the world, but not everyone sees colors the same and some don’t see them at all. Seeing colors depends on the function of the three cones that send color information from our eyes to our brains. When none of the cones are working properly, the result is total color blindness. It is very rare, and to those who live with it, the world is not so much black and white, but a variety of different shades of gray. When one of the cones is not working properly, it either causes blue-yellow color blindness, which is extremely rare, or red-green, which is the most common form of color blindness.

Beyond the obvious benefits of revenue sharing, the county’s recycling effort benefits residents in other ways, according to Commissioner Deputy Director Virginia E. “Ginny” Haines.

“Weday.will never forget our fellow Americans who tragically left us that day. We thank the many brave men and women in the military who defend and protect us and the dedicated emergency personnel who risk their lives to rescue us from danger,” Ocean County Clerk Scott M. Colabella said in a statement.
Kelly added that currently, “we have turned the corner we are once again pleased to share the revenue with our towns, who are essential to the success of our recycling efforts.”
She said, “every ounce of material that is recycled stays out of our landfi ll. Not only are we protecting the environment, but we are making money instead of spending money on landfi ll fees.”

She said, “since 1995, nearly $18 million has been shared with Ocean County’s municipalities through this innovative program. Previous to this year, the highest revenue sharing award was $917,481 returned to towns in 2011.

Probate assets may include real property that is titled solely in the decedent’s name or held as a tenant in common; Personal property, such as jewelry, furniture, and automobiles; bank accounts that are solely in the decedent’s name; an interest in a partnership, corporation, or limited liability company; any life insurance policy or brokerage account that lists either the decedent or the estate as the beneficiary.

The death of a loved one is a tragic event. Unfortunately, following in the wake of a loved one’s passing, disputes often arise as to the decedents Last Will and Testament. If such a dispute arises, it is important to understand how legal fees could impact the assets of the Estate.
Once an Executor of an Estate is appointed and the Will is challenged, the Executor may use Estate assets to defend the challenge as long as the contesting party challenges the Will’s validity, interpretation, distribution, or a specific clause. The estate assets may be used to hire an attorney to defend the challenge of the Will. Legal fees incurred in defending the challenged Will, its contents, clauses, or distribution are not be the personal responsibility of the Executor. Instead, under such circumstances, the legal fees are payable from the Estate. However, when an Executor has to defend claims against non-probate assets, then the circumstances change and certain limitations apply.
A non-probate asset is as an asset which does not “pass” through the decedent’s Estate,

and bypasses the court process by transferring directly to the beneficiaries. Non-probate assets include property that is held in joint tenancy or as tenants by the entirety; bank or brokerage accounts held in joint tenancy or with payable on death (POD) or transfer on death (TOD) beneficiaries; property held in a trust; life insurance or brokerage accounts that list someone other than the decedent as the beneficiary; retirement accounts.

If a party to a Will challenges the transfer of a non-probate asset, an Executor may be forbidden from utilizing Estate assets to defend against such a claim. When a transfer of non-probate assets benefits the Executor of the Estate to the exclusion of other beneficiaries, then the Executor will not be allowed to use the Estates assets to pay legal fees in defense of such a dispute. Should an Executor use the assets of the Estate to make such payments, then these assets may be payable back to the Estate by the

They prefer lawn grass found in open urban areas. Open areas provide them the ability to not only spot predators, but also open space allows them easier access for flying. Where there is water, expect waterfowl. Due to the 4-6 - foot wingspan and size of the Canada goose, they typically will vocalize to their group that it’s time for take-off. That take-off means a running start of several feet.

who provide for and feed their young, waterfowl young become quickly adept at learning the skills to survive. Both parents, especially the male, will vigorously defend the goslings until approximately 10 weeks of age when they can fly. Young geese will stay with their family group for about one year. The Canada goose mates for life. Should they lose a mate, they typically fi nd another within the same breeding season. So, getting back to goose waste, contrary to what you may think, there is some good news about their droppings. They contain large amounts of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorous when dried. This is good quality fertilizer for your vegetable garden(s). Maybe think about collecting that waste and incorporating it into your garden. Understanding a bit more about the Canada goose, the next time you encounter them visiting your neighborhood, remember, they’re just like us, trying their best to survive.
Ok so here’s a subject that seems to ruffle one’s feathers – assuming humans ‘had’ feathers. Let me start by agreeing that the Canada goose does create a lot of waste. Imagine a diet of mostly plant matter, grasses, some seeds and berries, even some insects on occasion. A goose can consume up to about 4 pounds of grass a day. That’s right, a day! With that kind of diet, one would have to realize what goes into the body must leave from the body. While it is not recommended to hand-feed, people will sometimes provide grains and other foods.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): If you’re already overcommitted, exercise the “hard no.” If you are in too much of a hurry to stop and think, you might misinterpret information or hurt a friend. Wait until you are better informed to set a new plan in motion.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Your temper may have a short shelf life. Don’t let irritations or an urgent compulsion to fight trigger action. If you slam the door on someone, it might lock and you might not be able to get back in their good graces.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Where there’s a will, there’s a way. Think carefully before you fool yourself and spend your time and energy on something that wasn’t worthwhile. Avoid being caught up in a wild goose chase in the week ahead.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your internal compass might be temporarily off. A flirtation might not be what it seems, or an agreement may have some fine print you overlooked. Be forgiving and understanding in the week ahead.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Family gatherings could fall flat today, but everyone should be in in a better frame of mind in a few days. New friends or coworkers could enhance your reputation or upgrade your social status. in the upcoming week.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Stir up a batch of family fun in the week to come. Your best results will come by spending more time with family members or home-based projects. Overtime hours or homework might interfere with your romantic plans.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Sometimes you need to work within a hierarchy, and it would be wise to show respect for authority figures now. A humble acceptance of your responsibilities will see you through the tight spots as the week unfolds.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Remain optimistic and don’t sweat the small things. Your bills may seem larger and more troublesome than they really are. You should be able to make a helpful change later this week that solves a liability or financial problem.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Don’t take it personally. There might be a good reason for someone’s lack of attention. Don’t torment yourself over criticisms or be afraid to move on if you have truly reached a stalemate with a loved one.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Economy and frugal habits could be on your mind. You may pass up expensive outings and ignore tempting sales pitches to keep more in your bank account. Focus on money-saving changes this week.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): There may be strings attached. In the week to come, you might realize that an exciting change includes some additional work or responsibilities. Remember the carpenter’s saying, “measure twice and cut once.”
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Think carefully before you act on financial advice. A mistake made today could cause extra effort later. Save your money today and later in the week you could be able to put a more profitable and strategic plan into place.
