Arlington Succeeds in Its Mission While Vet Programs Miss Mark By JOHN M. IMPERIALE ne of my favorite lines of poetry is from John Milton’s “On His Blindness”: “They also serve who only stand and wait.” After spending the better part of a day at Arlington National Cemetery, my only thought is: No, they don’t. Not that way. I understand that Milton’s line and his beautiful poem are a tribute to the courage and fortitude of the disabled. As one who has worked with the disabled, both professionally and as a volunteer, I recognize that bearing one’s yoke, as Milton says, requires a strength that most of us could never possess. So this is not a disagreement with Milton or a diminishing of the contributions and personal valor of all of us who could not or did not “serve.”
O
Flawed Pinelands Bill To the Editor: A bill (S-1785/A-269) has been introduced to exempt, for five years, certain development activities in the Pinelands from compliance with the Pinelands Commission development approval process. The bill’s preamble makes clear it is based on the mistaken premise that the Pinelands protection plan hurts the region’s economy and the Pinelands approval process creates a “potentially devastating” burden on those opening new businesses. The bill’s economic premise is incorrect, so it is not surprising the bill’s provisions are also flawed. The bill’s authors also seem to be unaware that the Pinelands Commission already has carefully designed programs to delegate its powers and avoid overlapping reviews by local boards and the commission in appropriate cases. The bill would exempt new businesses from Pinelands review where they seek to improve or reconstruct an existing building or previously built site in any of the Pinelands areas defined in the bill as “commercial development zones.” Continued on Page 10
This is a tribute to those who did and those who do. In 1968, I was denied enlistment in the Army because I was hard of hearing. I then tried to use my own “standing and waiting” for the betterment of society as best I could. Milton’s words rightly made me proud, as they have so many others. But everything pales when you stand at Arlington and consider the men and women who “served.” Served in uniform. Risked their lives and, in too many cases, gave their lives for this country. For you and me. They served us so that we could have our democracy and our freedom. So that we could practice our religion and speak our minds. So that we could freely assemble, whether to protest a war in Southeast Asia in the 1960s or a bank on Wall Street in 2012. So that a free press could bring the truth to us – and, in fact, many versions of the truth – so that we could decide for ourselves what to believe. They served so that we have all of the rights that were laid out in our Constitution – and we have the right to debate the interpretation of those rights openly and freely. For you and me, they served. There are 300,000 men and women buried at Arlington. One morning spent walking the hallowed cemetery and you can get a history of our nation’s wars – wars fought while many of us stayed home to debate the pros and cons of each conflict, wars fought while many urged that America fight while never putting themselves at risk, wars fought while many pleaded for a war’s end without recognizing that there are times in which we need to defend our country, and wars fought in which too many did fight and did die. Walk Arlington and get a history of bravery and courage in America. At Arlington are the remains of soldiers from every war this nation has ever fought, including those reinterred from the Revolutionary War. The soldiers who fought to create this nation lie side by side with those who fought to defend it. The Civil War can be felt on every inch of
ground, not just on the grave sites of Union or Confederate soldiers, and not just in Section 27, where more than 3,800 former slaves are buried, but everywhere. For Arlington National Cemetery consists of the land owned by Robert E. Lee and his family. Lee’s wife, Mary Ann Rudolph Custis, was the granddaughter of George Washington, through his stepson, George Washington Parker Custis. The Lees left their home as war was breaking out and the land was occupied by the Union Army, after being confiscated by the government. The first soldier buried there was Private William Christman, on May 13, 1864. He was buried in the rose garden in front of the Lee mansion. Pristine land became sacred ground. And on that ground is a mass grave of 2,200 unknown Civil War soldiers. Two thousand, two hundred unknown soldiers, together – it makes you shudder at the sacrifices made to keep this country together. Continued on Page 12
Having Fun on the Bay – No Matter What! By VICTORIA GRAY PALMER he scrubby pines, tall grasses and cattails hid the scrappy marina where the Penn-Yan was kept. From the big Causeway Bridge, it was nearly invisible behind the overgrowth of bushes and the broken-down advertising billboards for the Island ahead. I was 10 years old and ready for a sea adventure with Grammy, Cap, Corinne and Dad on Barnegat Bay. Carefully, I crossed the arched, white, paint-chipped footbridge to the floating dock, and saw the PennYan rocking cheerfully in its stall. The water sparkled like crushed ice catching the gleaming rays of the brilliant sun, as it proudly held the motorboat upon its swirling swells. The air was crisp and clean and cooled my burning skin. I took in a deep breath but was jarred awake when my step-grandfather shouted, “All aboard who’s coming aboard,
T
mateys!” He gave his bent, white “Gilligan” hat a yank, pushed his chunky, black-framed glasses closer to his bulbous nose, and sipped watery black coffee from his oversized “L.B.I.” mug. After meandering through the “No Wake” zone of the marina, Captain gave the engine some gas, and we took off on our journey. Orange day-rental rowboats dotted the bay like the tops of lit matchsticks. We passed a tall, splintered channel marker that was home to a nesting osprey, several water-skiers and Jet Skiers, some fishermen and scores of powerboats. Cap cut the engine, and the Penn-Yan swallowed the foamy white waves behind it. The back of the boat surged as if we were riding a roller-coaster backward, and we lobbed up and down in the jubilant sea. It was tradition to exchange a quick kiss for luck as we passed under the Causeway Bridge toward our destination, so we all did. When we finally got there, Corinne and I
were displaced as Dad needed to get to the anchor beneath our seat. He lifted the giant, metal door-knocker and tossed it gently into the bay. The stern of the boat was now turned into a kitchen countertop with a slab of old oak plunked down as a cutting board, and a long, skinny knife with a worn, yellowed handle was placed on its top. “Chicken bones and squid are great bait!” Grammy said, as she helped me with my line. She took the chicken bone and tied the damp, gray string around it. Then she smiled at me with her tanned face aglow with rosy cheeks, model-esque black eyebrows, and ruby red lipstick and said, “You’re all set, baby, just drop the line into the bay!” I was eager to see what hidden creatures would come up to meet my face. It was a long time before I saw anything. A few menacing sea gulls were gawking near my Continued on Page 15
The Real Meaning Of Memorial Day By GENE MOYNIHAN onday, May 28 will mark the observance of Memorial Day. Originally it was known as Decoration Day, after the practice in the South of decorating the graves of soldiers who fought in the Civil War. In parts of the South, the day included the singing of hymns and “dinner on the ground,” the serving of foods on sheets or blankets spread on the ground. Decoration Day was declared a holiday and first observed on May 30, 1868, when flowers were placed on the graves of Union and Confederate soldiers at Arlington National Cemetery. In 1967, after World War II, the name was officially changed to Memorial Day. The traditional day of observance was changed in 1971 from May 30 to the last Monday in May, as an observance of the sacrifices made by American servicemen and women in the defense of our country. It also created a threeday weekend, the unofficial start of summer and a mega-shopping event. While shopping this Memorial Day weekend, remember the combat casualties who made your shopping excursion possible. The statistics of the major conflicts from World War I to the present are sobering: 623,243 dead and 1,070,087 wounded, for a total of 1,693,330. There are an additional 40,915 missing or remains that have not been identified. The dead don’t suffer anymore, but the wounded do. Think of the heartbreak of the families of those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Consider the badly wounded, those who Continued on Page 9

Although is it common to find a statue of the WWI doughboy or an old piece of military equipment in village squares across America, these don’t mean much if the population has forgotten, or never learned, what they represent. Two World War I-era poets memorialized the dead of that war, but their words still ring true today. The locations of combat may have changed, but the consequences remain the same. Older Americans may remember John McCrae’s poem “In Flanders Fields,” which begins: In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark the place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. Moved by the simplicity and eloquence of “In Flanders Fields,” Moina Michael penned “We Shall Keep the Faith.” She developed the idea of wearing poppies, now artificial poppies, to honor those who had died in combat. A portion of her poem follows: We cherish, too, the poppy red That grows on fields where valor led; It seems to signal to the skies That blood of heroes never dies, But lends a lustre to the red Of the flower that blooms above the dead In Flanders Fields. Enjoy the holiday, and while you’re pondering the price of that Memorial Day sale item, keep in mind those who served our country with dignity and integrity, and the high price they paid for your freedom. “Freedom is not free.” Y Gene Moynihan lives in Manahawkin.

Continued from Page 6 have lost one or more limbs, their eyesight or are badly disfigured, and the impact it has on their family life and the ability to earn a living. In addition, there are unknown numbers of troops who have combat-related mental issues. All of this comes into clear focus when you see a young man in the prime of life who had both arms and legs blown off by an IED (improvised explosive device). Just thinking about it is frightening enough, but seeing it – well … Unfortunately, the commercialization of the three-day weekend has probably contributed to a decline in the real meaning of Memorial Day. The Memorial (or Decoration) Day parade that was once an annual event in most towns seems to be disappearing. Although is it common to find a statue of the WWI doughboy or an old piece of military equipment in village squares across America, these don’t mean much if the population has forgotten, or never learned, what they represent.

Continued from Page 6 In fact, economic data show the Pinelands region has outperformed non-Pinelands areas of South Jersey. With 30 years under its belt, the Pinelands leads the way in demonstrating the positive economic outcomes of smart regional planning. According to the commission’s 2010 Long-Term Economic Monitoring Report: • Pinelands municipalities consistently record a lower unemployment rate than nonPinelands areas of South Jersey. • The average residential property tax of Pinelands residents is substantially lower than non-Pinelands residents in South Jersey and the state as a whole. • The median inflation-adjusted sales price for a home in the Pinelands was $242,000 in 2008, compared to $235,000 for non-Pinelands municipalities in South Jersey. • From 1998 to 2003 (the last year for which this data was reported), municipalities in the Pinelands added 1,000 new business establishments, an increase of 9.2 percent. The non-Pinelands region of South Jersey posted a slight decrease (-0.7 percent) in new business establishments during this time, while the rest of the state registered only a 6.3 percent increase in new businesses. The Pinelands Comprehensive Management Plan, moreover, already exempts “the construction of any addition or accessory structure for any non-residential use … provided said addition or structure will be located on or below an existing impervious surface and the existing use is served by public sewers and said addition or structure will cover an area of no more than 1,000 square feet.” This would apply to regional growth areas and towns, but (unlike the bill) not to villages where public sewer service is typically not feasible due to surrounding forest or preservation areas. Pinelands villages are traditional communities and discrete settlements within the preservation, forest, agricultural development and rural development areas. These are places such as Chatsworth, Bamber and Lower Bank that must have development compatible with its existing character. Villages should not be treated the same as regional growth areas and towns. The commission also has a program by which municipal construction officers are designated to handle Pinelands reviews where the town shows its own officer has the skills and capacity to handle the task. The key is that these exemptions and delegation procedures are carefully limited and overseen by the commission to ensure Pinelands environmental standards are met. Under the new bill no one would enforce those protections. The bill sets a poor precedent for skirting important regional environmental protections that work well, economically and environmentally, while providing no economic data to show it is needed. For these reasons the Pinelands Preservation Alliance opposes this measure. Jaclyn Rhoads, director for conservation policy Pinelands Preservation Alliance Southhampton, N.J. Continued on Page 19

22nd Annual
Continued from Page 6 Few people think of those unknown Civil War soldiers buried at Arlington, but we all have heard of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. To stand in front of it, to read the inscription, to watch the sacredness of the changing of the guard, is to know it at a completely different level. To stand in front of it is to know that these soldiers, from World War I, World War II and the Korean War, represent the thousands upon thousands of unknowns – unknown to you and me, that is. We honor what they did, without knowing their names. We honor not that they died, but how they lived. Of course, many people, when they think of Arlington, if they think of Arlington at all, think of President John F. Kennedy and the eternal flame. When you stand in front of his grave, you understand that the flame is there because he was a symbol of an undying belief in the eternity of America’s greatness. He was assassinated, but his vision for America could never be killed. That is why the flame burns. But then you realize that he is there, at Arlington, first and foremost, because he wore the uniform. He fought. Bravely. And then you remember that most of the other 300,000 men and women buried there are also there because they, too, fought for this country. Bravely. You walk the lanes of Arlington and you see the brave everywhere. Plaques mark the location of airborne units; monuments remind us of the Challenger disaster and PanAm Flight 103; those lost in the rescue mission in Iran lie together; the Marines killed in the terrorist attack in Beirut are honored there, marked by a simple Cedar of Lebanon tree. The Rough Riders have a monument; the Rough Riders lie in graves. The mast from the Maine is there; so are the sailors lost in the explosion that started the Spanish-American War. There is a section for nurses who served in battle, and one for chaplains. All are brothers and sisters together, for eternity.

You look for famous names, such as Audie Murphy, the most decorated soldier in World War II, or Gen. Douglas MacArthur, or Gen. James Doolittle. And then you read more names, names not famous, though heroes all. And you wonder. You wonder how a nation that could devote itself to creating and maintaining a national cemetery to give its veterans a place of “honor, valor, and remembrance” could also be a nation that fails its veterans when they come home from war. And make no mistake about it: We are failing our veterans when they come home. We fail to give them proper treatment, sufficient training and adequate respect. After World War II, the G.I. Bill gave veterans a chance at an education and a new future. Today we have slogans urging the hiring of a vet. Today we debate the quality of health care without acknowledging that the best, finest, most modern hospitals in America are not the veterans’ hospitals; they are private hospitals for the rich and the rich enough. Arlington National Cemetery is magnificent. But it should not be the best we offer our veterans. Something in this life would seem more appropriate. So what can we, who stand and wait, do? We can serve, in our own way, as John Milton would have us do. We can be advocates for better funding for veterans programs, from job training to medical facilities. The Vow to Hire Heroes Act was signed into law, but it is not enough. It is not nearly enough. There are many other bills waiting to be enacted, bills to address veterans compensation, military retiree benefits, tax relief for disabled veterans, and on and on. Research into these bills is easy today; there is no excuse for not finding out what has been proposed, and where your representatives stand. We should all be advocates for better treatment of our veterans. We should be active, constant advocates, calling our members of Congress, asking their positions on each and every bill before Congress dealing with veterans. We should demand to know exactly what they are doing for our veterans. And when they talk budget, tell them to find the money. That’s what they are paid for. And is there a higher priority? Shame on us if there is. The most heartbreaking number of all is that there is still an average of 27 burials daily at Arlington. Twenty-seven men and women who served this country are laid to rest there every day, some veterans of long-ago wars, others sent home from Afghanistan. All heroes. Arlington National Cemetery dignifies all who have served. Let us, who stand and wait, also dignify those who serve. Y John M. Imperiale lives in Harvey Cedars.

He was dancing up a storm, trotting backward on his toes and tossing clams into the basket. together, reminding me of whiskers. It made me laugh. Next, the inner-tube was flopped overboard, along with the worn, wooden basket that fit inside it. “Come on, girls!” he said with an almost mouthwatering smile – as if the bay were a pot of melted butter – “Let’s get some clams!” With that, he bounded down the ladder and disappeared into the water. Since I was older, my sister tried to make me get in next. I stayed on the second step and peered through its honeycomb holes into the deep, dark-gray water. On the third step down, I was submerged to the waist, and back up the ladder I climbed. “Come on!” Corinne shouted at me. “Hurry up!” “You do it, then!” I said. And she did. Her golden-blond hair turned into murky kelp in one dip. She swam out to Dad as I watched anxiously from the boat. “Come over here, Dad!” I yelled. “So I can hold onto the tube!” But he couldn’t hear me. He was dancing up a storm, trotting backward on his toes and tossing clams into the basket. He finally made his way back toward the boat. Seeing my chance, I launched myself down the ladder, but insisted that he come and get me. I giggled with my sister and held on nervously next to her. Dad was spinning us around, and we were now part of his dance. I kept waiting for a crab to surface and pinch me. Instead, little bits of gelatin grazed my skin. I soon began to relax in the soothing, salty water. My hair was like silk against my neck. My body felt as tough as the wrinkled skin of a pea. I looked into my sister’s skyblue eyes and heard her joyful laugh. We were happy. The bay was happy. It was our friend. It frolicked with us and caressed us with its hugging wavelets. And Dad softly plowed

brought us to life. The boat skipped along the water and massaged our tired bodies. Gram was crocheting; Dad and Cap were talking, competing with the engine’s loud roar; and Corinne and I were happily lying back with our feet on the center ottoman that covered the boat’s engine. Suddenly, with no warning at all, the Penn-Yan came to a screeching halt. We flew everywhere. Everything stopped, even time, for a few moments. Luckily, we were all in one piece, but there were minor injuries. Dad, who just minutes before was checking the tide using the depth marker, crashed into Captain, sending him into the dashboard. In the process, Captain broke the steering wheel into a three-pronged stub, which was now slightly bloody. He had cut his hands Continued on Page 16

Continued from Page 6 line. “Get away!” I thought. “You’ll scare the crabs!” And then, like magic, I saw two tiny, beady, bulging eyes staring back at me. A big, bluish claw was clenching the chicken bone. “Oh, I got one! Look, look, Gram, I got one!” I screamed. And then I quickly yanked up the line, and my crab sank back into the water. A couple of more tries, and I had another taker. Dad, the “net-man,” now perspiring in the sweltering sun, scooped up my crab for me. I was so proud to have caught such a longlegged, diamond-headed treasure. Later, Dad slipped into the bay to grab a couple of dozen clams. I watched as he slid his feet into his black, rubber, homemade slippers. He looked as if he had catfish for feet, the uneven stitching holding the rubber scraps
the water with us, his strong arm keeping us safely connected. When we returned to the boat, I marched up the steps into a big, fresh, white towel baked by the sun, and wrapped around me by Grammy. My shivering body soon warmed. I took air liberally into my lungs, and I lay down on the seat, gazing into the cotton-cloudy sky, embraced by the security of the towel. Cap called for Dad to haul in the anchor. He fired up the engine and threw it screaming into reverse. “Grass,” he said, his weathered face showing his years of experience on the water. Once the seaweed was removed, we were headed for a special spot that only he knew to be great for fishing. There we would eat lunch and fish for the rest of the afternoon. Weaving in between the channel markers, we whipped the water into a milky froth. The air surrounded us, stroked us firmly and

Continued from Page 15 and bumped his chin and head. Dad had cut his leg in the joust with the marker. Corinne and I ended up on the floor, our arms and legs scraped. Gram had also landed on the floor. Her cheek was cut, and the wind had stolen her jet-black wig. It was snarling in the corner behind us like a miniature Doberman pinscher. Thankfully, she went to retrieve it. And, although it was wet, she promptly wrung it out over the side of the boat and fastened it back on her head so that she could think more clearly. The sun’s wild rays distorted this picture. Everyone looked strange, and the seconds lasted forever. Looks of disbelief were carved on our faces. Shock entranced us into slow motion. And then, it was over and time resumed its normal pace. Questions of concern were barked back and forth, and the thought of who would rescue us arose. Abruptly, everyone left the boat except for Corinne and me. We were crouched on one side, acting as counterweights, as they tried to push the boat off the sandbar. Wading into the water, waving her hands and stopping in between to smoke a cigarette, Gram was busy trying to flag down our hero. From the back, she looked like a dismantled American flag with her white, button-down shirt flapping wildly over her navy bathing suit and her scarlet-painted nails striking the pale-blue sky. She kept saying, “Superman, come save us! Yoo-hoo! Hey, fellas!” But the boats just sped by us in the distance. My towel betrayed its comfort and instead began to choke me with its heavy, wet arms. The bay soured into the enemy, and its choppy wavelets were hands reaching out to grab me. My sister and I held each other tight as the others pushed and rocked the boat, trying to wiggle it out of the mound of sand that had disrupted our serenity. Finally, someone did stop. A rope, whisked around like a lasso, was thrown to Dad on the bow. Our boat seemed inferior to the larger vessel, as if it were now nothing more than junkyard scraps. With a little bit of hope from all of us and a lot of horsepower from the rescuing boat, the Penn-Yan was pulled from the densely packed sand. We were free again. Our damaged boat licked its wounds and sputtered about in the bay. But we were not heading toward the marina. We were not calling it a day. In fact, there were smiles and laughter. Dad joked about the accident, remarking about how unbelievable it all had been. Cap flashed us a smile, with a twinkle in his eye. Gram, her wig perfectly intact, spoke with a confidence that reassured us all. Corinne and I just sat there in amazement. Soon, we were at the special fishing spot and the anchor was dropped once more. Grammy passed out the tuna fish and egg salad sandwiches, and Corinne and I were again bickering over who had ordered which one. Dad handed us each an ice-cold can of Coke. Washing down my food with the soothing drink satisfied me. I sat there with my fishing pole aboard the bruised boat, wary of the water beneath me, but buoyed by the Penn-Yan and my family – its happy crew.

Donations Needed To the Editor: Six years ago I made a request for articles for Vineland Developmental Center for the handicapped residents. I remember the response, as it was a blessing for six years. Now I am working with New Lisbon Center for the handicapped residents. The center has 300 boys and 100 girls. The need is always there. New Lisbon is located at the end of Route 72 west. We hope to set up a section for hospice care at this center. We have a hospital bed but need a bureau and easy chair and perhaps a bookcase. All must be in good condition. We are trying to make it homelike for the residents’ last days. Please call me at 609-660-0405 for further information about picking up items. I now live at Fawn Lakes in Manahawkin and would be delighted if readers have any other items. We can use games, craft items, DVDs, CDs, coloring books, soap products, jewelry, etc. My memories of the help we receive will always be treasured. Delores Hardman Manahawkin
Obama’s Role Limited The following responds to “Credit Deserved” (5/16) by Barbara M. Imperiale. To Barbara M. Imperiale: Thank you for reading and understanding my letter to Sen. Menendez. I’m sure you will remember me advising that Congress put the “photo op hold” on the final military action targeting Osama bin Laden, which you did not deny. In fact, Lt. Gen. Jack Keane, retired, has stated the military had bin Laden in their sights in September 2010 and awaited commander-in-chief approval (nod of the head). President Obama, in his recently disclosed Darwinian thought process, ultimately evolved to acquiesce to the multi-year operation, initiated several years before he took office. During that Darwinian thought process, the White House requested actual photographs of the target, to confirm it was a successful conclusion of the search, which began several years before the Obama administration. President Obama happened to be in the glory seat when the search and kill operation concluded. Realizing you appreciate complete information, I hope this is of assistance to your thinking. William H.

To the Editor: The antics of the GOP in recent months make people wonder if the Republican Party has a secret death wish. An article in The New Yorker is subtitled “Can the GOP Save Itself?” It’s a fair question for a party that seems to be shooting itself in the foot at every opportunity. For example, its opposition to a working people’s payroll tax cut played poorly in Main Street America, so poorly in fact that the GOP leaders in the Senate and House did an about-face. The GOP’s war on the labor movement alienated it from millions of working families. Its hostility to the use of contraceptives turned off large numbers of women, irrespective of party affiliation. Its closing of space between the religious and secular spheres didn’t sit well with many Americans, nor does its eagerness to go to war against Iran. The GOP, through its own doing, has hurt its chances in the November elections. The party hopes to disenfranchise enough voters, especially youth, people of color and seniors, to turn the election in its favor. This campaign, including the so-called “voter identity” laws, is hitting full stride and must be resisted. The direction of the economy, as well as the unfolding events in the Middle East, introducContinued on Page 54

State Police Investigating Eagleswood Fatal Accident
Rallying the Opposition To Atlantic Oil Drilling By PAT JOHNSON lean Ocean Action and a coalition of more than 130 organizations announced Tuesday a New Jersey/New York Clean Ocean Zone initiative to educate the public about threats to the Atlantic coast. Through a 15-day summer campaign from Aug. 10 to Aug. 24 they will rally the public in an effort to create federal protection for New York and New Jersey from industrialization of the ocean. The Clean Ocean Zone would reduce pollution by prohibiting ocean dumpsites and new wastewater discharge outfalls. Marine ecosystems would be protected by prohibiting industrialization such as strip mining, oil and gas drilling and development and the con-
C
struction of non-renewable energy facilities. Last month, the Department of the Interior held a public hearing on plans to allow seismic testing for oil and natural gas in the Mid-Atlantic. At that time, a coalition of conservation organizations spoke out against the proposal that they said could harm marine mammals and seagoing turtles and ultimately open the door to oil drilling off the coast. Seismic air gun tests, underwater explosions of air and the resulting noise, harms marine animals by disrupting their communications, causing hearing loss and strandings as they become disorientated. Many environmentalists believe that the cause for thousands of dead and dying dolphins that have washed up on Peru's beaches this year can be traced
T
he state police fatal accident unit is continuing the investigation of a deadly motorcycle accident that occurred on Route 9 in Eagleswood on Friday, May 18 around 6:35 p.m. William Kolb, 24 of Barnegat was thrown from his Harley Davidson and killed when he collided with an SUV driven by Ocean County Freeholder Jack Kelly. According to police reports, Kelly was turning into the West Creek Deli parking lot that he owns and runs with his son on Route 9. Kolb was returning to his lane after passing another car and collided with Kelly's vehicle. Kolb’s motorcycle hit the right fender of the SUV and was thrown from his motorcycle and pronounced dead at the scene. Kelly was not ticketed. —P.J.

to seismic testing by oil companies. Cindy Zipf, president of Clean Ocean Action, said what the Department of the Interior’s Bureau of Ocean Energy Management proposes in its environmental impact study is “so outrageous it’s unbelievable.” She said, “They are allowing the companies to ‘take,’ and this means harm or kill, thousands of marine mammals a year. They say they don’t expect to kill any animals but if they do, it’s OK. “Also, the bureau’s permission to allow up to 11 companies to troll the oceans, blasting the heck out of the oceans over a 10-year pe-

EVER WIDENING: Beach replenishment begun this past March and currently in progress in a section of Brant Beach is on track for completion by the mid-June deadline.
Long Beach Township Beachfill On Schedule for June 15 Finish
T
he latest schedule from Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Co. indicates that the beach replenishment project spanning 31st to 57th streets in the Brant Beach section of Long Beach Township is still on track for completion by the June 15 deadline, according to U.S. Army Corps of Engineers public affairs specialist Stephen Rochette. “That includes the pumping of sand onto the beach,” Rochette noted. “There may be some additional work on the fencing and the dune crossovers that continues after that date.” He added, “There have been some delays on the project due to mechanical issues with the pumps and a temporary breach in the subline (piping),” but regardless the beachfill work should be complete in mid-June. At last Friday’s township Board of Commissioners meeting, Mayor Joseph Mancini said he inspected the first three dune walkovers – at 32nd, 33rd and 34th streets – “and they’re great, very easy to walk over, very gradual. “The beaches are looking really good.” The Army Corps awarded the contract for the replenishment project to Great Lakes
Dredge & Dock, of Oak Brook, Ill., in late September of last year, and work began this past March. The base contract comprises the placement of 1,200,000 cubic yards of sand, as well as construction of dune crossovers, sand fencing and dune grass plantings in the designated stretch, at a cost of $16.7 million. If the additional contract options are awarded, the total contract could be $17.9 million and include an additional 175,000 cubic yards of sand. In other township news, the police department has submitted two grant applications to the state. The first, for approximately $100,000, will, if approved, “allow the police department to replace their aging backup power generators” to ensure police operations continue in the event of an electrical power failure, Mancini explained. The second, for $2,500, would help enforcement of underage drinking laws through the Cops in Shops program. The commissioners’ next meeting is Friday, June 1, at 4 p.m. — Juliet Kaszas-Hoch
riod, means the ocean will never get a break. The fishermen are furious.” Zipf said she realizes that people sometimes feel overwhelmed by issues both personal and global but that the people who love the Atlantic Ocean and want it to remain free of industry must make their opinions known, and soon. The deadline for comment on the plan is May 30. Zipf is joined by Jeff Tittel, director of the New Jersey Sierra Club, urging people to send their comments to the Interior Department before the May 30 deadline. “I think people don’t see the immediate threat by this activity. They think, ‘Oh, it’s only a test.’ But the testing itself harms sea mammals. There is a connection. Also, the testing makes the moratorium on oil drilling in the Atlantic less meaningful and makes the possibility of drilling off our coast more real. These companies wouldn’t be spending all this money to map the Atlantic if the potential for making money from the oil companies wasn’t there. “We haven’t heard from the governor on this, when in the past he has been opposed to offshore drilling. He has been pretty quiet on this,” Tittel added. He said the argument that offshore drilling in the Atlantic would decrease U.S. dependence on foreign oil is weak since the oil companies are not nationalized and sell their oil to the highest bidder. “We sell gas to Saudi Arabia. Production of domestic oil is up to its highest level and prices at the pump remain high – they sell it overseas. The only way to cut our dependence on foreign oil is to create fuel-efficient cars. The last time gas was over $4 a gallon people dropped their consumption 5 percent and prices started coming down.” The ocean management bureau proposes to open a section of the Atlantic Ocean encompassing approximately 20 offshore miles Continued on Page 66

raig Potter may not have touched his bike in more than a decade, but after retiring from the New Jersey State Police in August after 26 years of service, he set out to fulfill a promise he had made to himself and his family many years ago: biking across the country to benefit a charity he’s grown fond of over the years. “I’m not really a big bicyclist. I’m really not,” he said. “It’s just something I felt really committed to doing.” The trip, which kicks off Wednesday, will take him from Seaside, Ore., a town that “sort of looks like Surf City,” to Ship Bottom in the span of three months. His first step, after picking up a rented minivan with a friend along for the ride, as well as his bicycle, which has been reassembled by a bike shop in Astoria, Ore., will be dipping his rear tire in the Pacific Ocean. “That’s a traditional thing that cross country cyclists do,” he said. From there, he will travel about 4,500 miles through Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Kansas, “and then shooting across the country,” headed for Long Beach Island. At the end of his trip, “God willing,” he says, he will dip his front tire in the Atlantic Ocean on a beach in Ship Bottom. He said he could have saved himself several hundred miles of the trip if he left from California, but the thought of traveling through Nevada and Utah in the heat of summer convinced him that departing from Oregon was a better option. He collected 13 maps for the journey, laid out by others who have made the trip before him, and they will take him “all the way across the country, mile by mile,” at a rate of about 50 miles per day. Potter says nights will be spent split between camping in the back of the minivan and staying in hotels along the way. Training for this cross-country journey has taken him about eight months, and in an interview the day before he left, he said, “I’m really just looking forward to getting on the move.” Aside from strength training at the Ocean Continued on Page 54

Price Tag for String of Pearls Is Glaring, Says BL Council F
or the record, Barnegat Light Borough Council feels the “string of pearls” is too costly a concept for the new Causeway Bridge design. At its monthly meeting May 16, the council unanimously voted against supporting a resolution that outlines the state’s proposed lighting plan. This goes against the tide of some sentiment that made the N.J. Department of Transportation keep a version of the decorative lighting in its plan for the upcoming construction of a new span and rehabilitation of the current one alongside. “The NJDOT has recognized the aesthetic impact of the unique ‘string of pearls’ lighting used on the existing bridge and the local desire to incorporate a similar lighting effect” in the construction, says the resolution. But borough council members, in brief remarks against the proposal, pointed out that the lighting would be seen from the shoreline and bay, but not by drivers. Traditional highway lighting poles will be used to light the roadway on the bridges. The LED (light-emitting diode) “string of pearls” would be situated along the tops of the outermost walls of the two side-byside bridges. Each string of LED lights would come at a cost of $1.6 million (totaling $3.2 million), and
that was the glaring point to the council. “Waste of money” was among the comments agreed upon, as well as “a maintenance problem.” “Even though it’s federal funds, it still comes from all of us,” Borough Administrator/Clerk Gail Wetmore summarized council members’ comments from an earlier caucus meeting. Outside the meeting, one among the sparsely populated audience voiced the opposite sentiment. “We like the string of pearls,” said Sarah Lambert. “You know you’re home when you see the pearls.” She also noted that the cost would be “spread over the whole community,” not just Barnegat Light. In other business, Borough Hall will soon be painted. Council awarded a contract to Spectrum Painting LBI for $35,900. The work is scheduled to start at the end of June. “The building was painted about eight years ago, but it didn’t last,” Wetmore said after the meeting. The traditional look of the former Coast Guard edifice will be kept; the color will not be changed. The end of the month will bring a goodbye in borough offices when Deputy Clerk Nancy Manookian retires after her last day, May 31. Kathy Guerrero, now an experienced adminContinued on Page 50

Beach Haven Group Looks To the Future
A
group of more than 30 business owners in Beach Haven recently formed Beach Haven Future, with a goal of “being committed to the creation of a healthy and sustainable business community.” Jay Cranmer, owner of Buckalew’s Restaurant and Tavern, wrote a letter earlier this month to borough officials asking that the group hold discussions with the council “to understand, identify, and recommend solutions to the significant barriers and issues that confront the business community in Beach Haven today.” Cranmer said that one of the problematic issues is parking. “We need to create additional opportunities for parking for the business community by more effectively using the lots available now,” he said. “We can look to restripe and add more on-street parking places where it can be safely accomplished and investigate new off-street parking.” Cranmer also looked at the possibility of creating a business improvement district. “We can investigate to determine if this could be a useful vehicle for making the business areas more attractive, and for finding the funds to do so,” he said. “We need to have rules and regulations that will promote, without unnecessary bureaucratic morass and delay, the development of existing and new businesses.” Cranmer also said the group should have regular meetings with borough officials to discuss issues in a constructive framework and be a “sounding board” for proposals that could impact the business community. “The borough is in business 12 months a year,” he said. “Many of the merchants and residents leave for warmer climates for most of the winter months. How can we most effectively participate in the decision-making making process during the off-season?” Barry Baxter, owner of Barry’s Do Me a Flavor ice cream store, said the group is not looking for quick fixes but long-term solutions. “There are plenty of vacant business buildings in town, and perhaps we need to find better opportunities for business growth,” he said. “We really want to make this town attractive for our businesses and our visitors and residents.” He said business groups have formed in the past but had trouble staying active in the off-season. “We want to have year-round dialogue,” he said. “Since this new council took over (in July 2010)

he Barnegat Township Committee adopted a resolution Monday night to endorse a recommendation by the planning board to redevelop the vacant Shoreline Sand and Gravel mining and recycling facility, which ceased operations in 2010. The 140-acre site is located off West Bay Avenue, approximately a half-mile west of Nautilus Drive. The Ocean County Solid Waste Commission gave Shoreline permission to operate the facility in 2005, but the company went bankrupt five years later. Township Engineer John Hess, who helped prepare a report for the board, said the street frontage area of the site is zoned commercial, while the remaining portion is zoned for residential use. Hess said that with the redevelopment designation, the town could be eligible for grants if any environmental cleanup is necessary. He said the area has several buildings in deteriorating condition, old storage tanks and possibly contaminated soil. Township Administrator David Breeden said the site is bordered by the Ocean Acres and Heritage Point residential developments, along with several private homes on Nautilus Drive. “We are going to seek a lot of public input before ultimately determining what would be the best use of the property,” said Breeden. “We don’t have any timetable for coming up with a decision. Whoever decides to take over the property would have to go before either the planning or zoning boards.” Township Committeeman Len Morano said he would favor a “light industrial park.” “The last thing I want to see there is another residential development,” said Morano. “We’re already too overdeveloped. Since the Shoreline site was being used for industry, we should continue that and bring in some much-needed ratables to the township.” During the public portion, resident Frank Pecci said the site is filled with debris. “There must be hundreds of old tires piled up in there,” he said. “That will draw a lot of tiger mosquitoes. The last thing I want to see there is more homes. We have to look at that for commercial development.” —E.E. we’ve been looking to find ways to work with the council, and this looks like the best way to go.” Councilman Robert Keeler said he looked forward to meeting with the group. “I think it is always helpful for us to have dialogue,” he said. “We might not be able to have a lot of meetings now because we’re just about getting into the season and people aren’t going to have a lot of time. But I think it's a good start and we’ll wait and see where we go.” — Eric Englund

Student Essay Third in Nation
N
ot long after she was honored for winning first place in the state and the Eastern region in this year’s National Society Daughters of the American Revolution’s American History Essay Contest, Zoe Marie Deakyne of Harvey Cedars learned that her essay also took third place among all fifth-grade entries in the United States. Deakyne, a student of Jennifer Stahl’s at the Long Beach Island Grade School in Ship Bottom, was notified of the honor on May 16. “Each year, the NSDAR offers this American History Essay Contest to all students in grades five through eight to promote the study and appreciation of American history. The sponsoring DAR chapter, Great John Mathis, is extremely proud of Zoe’s accomplishments, and wishes her continued success in her future endeavors,” noted Peggy Boyce on behalf of the chapter. The DAR, founded in 1890 and headquartered in Washington, D.C., is a nonprofit, nonpolitical volunteer women’s service organization dedicated to promoting patriotism, education and the preservation of American history. In commemoration of the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812, for this year’s essay students were challenged to pretend they were alive during that time, and that they had a friend who became famous in history because he or she stood up for America. When Deakyne learned of the optional essay assignment in class, she was excited “to write about the war of 1812 because she knew she was a Daughter of the American Revolution,” as four of her ancestors served during the war, said her mom, AnnMarie Deakyne. Zoe Deakyne chose to write about historical heroine Catherine “Kitty” Knight, who, in Deakyne’s essay, runs up to the British soldiers setting fire to buildings in town – Georgetown, Maryland – and chases them off with a broom in one hand and an American flag in the other. “The War of 1812 is a forgotten war,” Deakyne writes, “but many heroes and heroines emerged. Kitty Knight was modest and did not speak much about the events that day. However, I have always admired her. I believe it is important to honor her selfless acts of bravery so others can continue to follow in her footsteps.” As AnnMarie explained, “Zoe enjoys writing and learning about her family heritage through history. She hopes to visit the DAR offices in Washington one day.” She added, in regard to her daughter’s success in the essay contest, and also on behalf of dad Terry, “We are very proud of her efforts!” — Juliet Kaszas-Hoch

emorial Day weekend is fast approaching, and area waterways, like the roadways, will be crowded. Many of the boaters may be making their first tentative excursions onto the Atlantic and/or Barnegat Bay, the proud owners of a significant part of the American Dream, a sleek new pleasure craft or sturdy fishing vessel. Others will be taking their boats out of mothballs, or, more correctly, shrink wrap. It is almost assuredly going to be a busy weekend for the United States Coast Guard, the New Jersey State Police Marine Services Bureau and private towboat operators. New boaters will see their unfamiliar craft break down and experienced sailors will have their share of challenges as well. So it is a perfect time to be celebrating Safe Boating Week, which launched on Saturday. And although all breakdowns and more serious mishaps can’t be avoided, perhaps some lives can be saved by following the simple theme of Safe Boating Week 2012 – “Ready, Set, Wear It!” In other words, a life jacket can be far more valuable as a life-saving device than as a seat cushion! Nothing, said Chief Warrant Officer Jay Greiner, the commanding officer of Coast Guard Station Barnegat Light, is more effective in saving lives than the proper use of a life jacket.

The latest statistics from the U.S. Coast Guard Boating Safety Division back Greiner up. In 2010, 4,604 boating accidents were reported to the Coast Guard, resulting in 3,153 injuries, $35.5 million of damage and, most significantly, 672 deaths. The report says that almost three-quarters of fatal boating accident victims drowned, and of those, 88 percent were not wearing life jackets. “Last year, in Barnegat Bay – and I call Barnegat Bay everything from the Route 37 bridge (that stretches from Toms River to Seaside Heights) to Little Egg Inlet, the area my station covers – 10 people died who were not wearing life jackets.” True, said Greiner, life jackets won’t save everybody in distress in the water. But they’ll give most people a fighting chance, at least in warmer waters. People, though, think they don’t need one if they can swim. You can’t swim, said Greiner, if you are unconscious. And then there’s the matter of just how long you may have to swim. Unlike on land, where a call to 911 usually results in assistance arriving in a relatively short time, rescues at sea take longer. “If you’re in the water,” said Greiner, “help Continued on Page 52
Waretown Library Reopens After Auto Crash Repairs

he Waretown branch of the Ocean County Library has reopened after it was closed due to structural damage caused by a car hitting the east corner of the Main Street building earlier this month. “We were able to make the necessary repairs quickly, and special thanks to the Ocean Township (Waretown) building inspection, who have signed off on our work,” said Joseph Cahill, Ocean County Library System maintenance supervisor. The branch is open Monday from 1 to 9 p.m., Tuesday and Thursday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Wednesday and Friday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. “We thank all our customers for their patience while the branch was briefly closed,” said Susan Quinn, library system executive director. She said while it was closed, patrons picked up reserved materials at the Barnegat branch. Built in 1982, the structure is 4,566 square feet with a meeting room that has a capacity of 60 people. It holds more than 12,000 volumes in its collection. —E.E.

Townhouses Are Opposed By Residents Sea Oaks Folks Speak By PAT JOHNSON fter attending numerous planning board meetings on the proposal by Sea Oaks Golf Course owner Joseph Mezzina to develop 29 townhouses on parts of the driving range and 10th hole, and after listening to engineers, traffic experts and landscape specialists, residents were able to make their feelings known during the public hearing on May 17. To a man, they opposed it. Some residents of Golf View Drive complained the additional development will spoil their view of the golf course and lower their property values. Many said they had paid a premium to Sea Oaks housing developer K. Hovnanian to have a lot on the golf course. Mezzina did not develop the housing. Fred Loehfelm said he spoke for many in the development who are opposed to the additional 29 townhouses. Mezzina already has planning board approval for 16 townhouses on what was once a putting green behind the Inn at Sea Oaks. “We will fight to oppose a development that will reduce our property values, bring increased traffic, ongoing noise and disrupt the lifestyle we are accustomed to in our beautiful development,” he said. Loehfelm also asked why the so-called loophole in the PRD (planned retirement development) zone – an argument the applicant is using to further develop the site – was brought to light now rather than in 2006 when Mezzina received approval on the 16 townhouses. “What exists now are 376 fee-simple private homes and 16 townhouses that have been permitted. Vote no to the 29 additional townhouses. Variances are given to those who would suffer undue hardship if they weren’t granted. This is an investment (by Mezzina). We say no to the application.” The “loophole” allows further development within the zone if the density isn’t already met – the case here. Based on density, Mezzina could theoretically develop 30 acres of the golf course, turning it into a 9-hole course rather than an 18 – something he has said he has no intention of doing – if he receives a variance allowing him to develop a smaller 4.2 acre area. The township planner, John Maczuga, has been authorized to draft an amendment to the PRD zone ordinance that will close the loophole. The mayor and township committee will have to decide if they will vote on it. Sea Oaks resident Joe Mancino said 50 percent of the homeowners in Sea Oaks paid an additional premium, between $35,000 and $75,000, to locate on the golf course. “What

t its meeting Monday night, the Barnegat Township Committee adopted an ordinance limiting the size of political campaign lawn signs to be no more than 2 feet by 2 feet. The ordinance affects public and private properties west of the Garden State Parkway. The township had recently adopted the same measure for areas east of the Parkway. “Because of state zoning regulations, we were required to adopt separate ordinances,” said Township Administrator David Breeden. Committeeman Jeff Melchiondo had recommended the ordinances, saying the sign situation “had been getting out of hand.” “We often get signs of all different shapes and sizes,” said Melchiondo, who with Mayor Al Cirulli is seeking re-election in November on the Republican ticket. “Some people have put signs up that were 4 by 8 feet, and they can get in the way of a driver’s view of the road. Too much cluttering of different signs can become rather unsightly.” He said there is the potential for much more clutter this November, since both board of education and township committee elections are scheduled in the fall. In February, the Barnegat board, along with many other school districts, took advantage of a state option to move the elections from April to November. “A lot of people who put these signs up don’t do it correctly, and they wind up getting blown down by the wind,” Melchiondo said. Committeeman Len Morano voted against it. “I have no problem with putting limits on public areas, but for private property, I think that is overstepping,” he said. “You should be able to do what you want when it comes to your own land.” —E.E. happens now? I have a view now; will I see the back of townhouses in the future? That remains to be seen.” Joe Yusif, a zoning board member drafted onto the planning board because so many planning board members recused themselves from hearing this application, asked if the premium was a provision in the buyer’s contract and whether it specified in writing that the golf course would remain unchanged. “If you have anything in writing, we would love to see it,” he said. Mezzina’s attorney, Howard Butensky, reminded the board that Mezzina did not sell the homes. “The golf course is not part of the POS (point of sale) but I might add, you are still on the golf course.” Dianne Hoeppel said when she had purchased her home she was not told there would be townhouses included in the development. “Will it affect my property values? I can’t say, but I bought into what I thought was a single-family residential development.” Ken Poppele has lived in Sea Oaks for 10 years. “I am the second-closest home to the proposed development, and I paid $50,000 for Continued on Page 50

‘Soar Into Summer’ Is Chamber’s Opener By MARIA SCANDALE f summer can be officially started with the cutting of a ribbon, then it happened Saturday. The ribbon ceremoniously snapped at the 17th Street beach in Ship Bottom, during the local chamber of commerce’s “Soar Into Summer” hoopla. The second annual “Soar” by the Southern Ocean County Chamber of Commerce-Long Beach Island DMO launched the season with the help of New Jersey Travel & Tourism Executive Director Grace Hanlon, U. S. Congressman Jon Runyan (R-3rd), 9th District Assemblywoman DiAnne Gove and others. The ribbon was hung between two of ReClam the Bay’s giant painted clams that were brought to the beach that day from their regular posts elsewhere along an educational Clam Trail. First of all, getting right to what we’re “soaring into,” the chamber this week compiled a preview list of many of the major arts and leisure activities going on this June. “Every weekend is full of innovative festivals, performances and more to inspire family and friends to start Summer 2012 on a high note,” said Lori Pepenella, destination marketing director with the chamber.

RUNNING WITH SCISSORS: In the second annual ceremony to launch the season, Congressman Jon Runyan and Assemblywoman DiAnne Gove (second and third from right) share the honors. Back and growing for a fourth year is the Lighthouse International Film Festival June 1-3 at various venues. It offers film enthusiasts a chance to screen award-winning films, meet industry leaders and take in after-parties.

On June 23-24 in Tuckerton, the 20th annual Baymen’s Seafood & Music Festival is held from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Tuckerton Seaport, presented by the Jersey Shore Folklife Center.

org). See boat building in progress, take a scenic boat ride on Tuckerton Creek, and much more. Admission is $8 for adults; $6, seniors; $3 for kids ages 6 to 12. For another fresh seafood experience on June 23, swing into the Jazzy Scallop & Seafood Festival at Historic Viking Village in Barnegat Light from 3 to 6 p.m. The backdrop at 19th Street and Bayview Avenue is the picturesque commercial fishing dock and shops. Fine seafood tasting from local restaurants and live jazz are featured with the $25 advance ticket, or $30 at the gate. Advance purchase is available at the Southern Ocean County Chamber Visitor Center in Ship Bottom (incoming causeway) or any of the Viking Village shops. The weekend of June 23-24 also features an open studio tour of Long Beach Island artists. The tour, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., is a unique opportunity to meet local artists in their studios as they demonstrate their process and have works on display and for sale. See lbiartists.com for more information on locations. Back at the Tuckerton Seaport, it’s festival time again on June 30. This time it’s the Red Wine & Blues Festival. The name speaks for itself – more specifically, the wines are New Jersey-produced. Time is 3 to 8 p.m. An Official Welcome Started It Off Returning to Saturday’s festivities, a streetend-full of neighbors and others watched as the dignitaries gathered for “Soar Into Summer’s” official welcome. The state’s tourism head, Hanlon, took the mic first as ceremonies got underway a little late. In the meantime, folks had the time to catch the ear of their elected officials (or talk sports with them) while kids had their picture taken with Buster from the Lakewood Blue Claws and Sprinkles the clown. B 98.5 radio broadcast the event. “I don’t know if I’m supposed to say it, but it’s my favorite place in the world,” Hanlon said, to applause. “I took my first steps down on Long Beach Island; I came down here every summer growing up. It’s in my heart, my soul. Sand is in my shoes.” She thanked the chamber for “doing such a great job as a team player with the rest of the state in promoting New Jersey as the premier travel destination that it is.” She added to the businesspeople present, “I think you’re going to have a great summer. Between Lori, the state, our legislators, congressmen, everybody, we’re going to do our best to promote you and make sure you have a very productive and fun summer.” Runyan spoke of the boost that tourism to Long Beach Island gives the economy. He said he does “everything I can day in and day out” to keep the “economic engine” of tourism “both viable and very productive.” “I was just having a conversation over there, and we talked about the assets we have. … Continued on Page 60

Tuckerton Promotes Police Officers; Firefighting Expense Eyed
I
n order to fill supervisory positions on the Tuckerton Police Department, officers Justin Cherry and John Sanzori were promoted to corporal during the May 21 borough council meeting. Cherry, 29, has been on the police force for seven years and Sanzori, 40, for eight years. “We had six officers apply for the position, and all did well,” said Police Chief Michael Caputo. “It was a struggle to pick two; it was close. I don’t want to diminish anyone’s efforts,” said the chief. The police department consists of eight officers including one lieutenant and the chief. The two corporals will be able to supervise operations at night, said Caputo. Last year, Cherry was found blameless in the shooting death of an assailant in Tuckerton.
In other police news, the borough council agreed to allow former mayor Lee Eggert to paint one Tuckerton patrol car a retro black and white, or Holstein pattern, for free. Eggert, owner of Lee’s Emergency Equipment, had offered to paint the Tuckerton police fleet back when he was mayor and recently offered the job again. Mayor Buck Evans asked Borough Attorney Terry Brady if there was any legal reason they should not accept the gift of painting the cars, and Brady said since there would be no money exchanged, he didn’t see a conflict; however, he suggested they approve just one car first. “See if you like it,” he said. During the public portion of the meeting, Tuckerton Volunteer Fire Co. President Chuck
Uhl informed the council that the company needs to replace its self-contained breathing apparatus by the end of 2013 at a cost of $110,000. “The air packs are needed to go into house fires and must be in compliance with federal standards,” said Uhl. He said that in 2011, the company received a grant of $42,000 from the Federal Emergency Management Agency Assistance to Fire Fighters to purchase new turnout gear (boots, hats and clothing). It applied again in 2012 for the SCBA but was turned down. “We intend to apply again this year, but there are no guarantees,” said Uhl. The department will also need to replace two fire trucks in the near future; estimated cost of an equipped class A fire engine is $450,000. The company might be able to purchase a used
truck for $350,000. Uhl said the fire trucks were once part of the borough’s capital budget but were removed in 2007. He asked that they be put back in the budget. Evans said the capital budget is actually a wish list and has little bearing on what the borough can afford. Uhl also gave these figures: The fire company consists of 25 members with an average call attendance of eight members. They average 180 calls a year, and the average response time is less than five minutes. The department operates two Class A pumpers (fire engines) and an auxiliary engine as well as a rescue truck. In 2010, the fire department put in service a boat for extinguishContinued on Page 56

ongressman Frank LoBiondo, who will, if re-elected this fall, represent all of Southern Ocean County except Barnegat Township and half of Stafford Township as a result of redistricting, is hard at work building his law and order bona ďŹ des. Last week LoBiondo, a Republican who currently represents New Jersey’s 2nd Congressional District (all of Atlantic, Cape May, Cumberland and Salem counties as well as parts of Burlington, Camden and Gloucester), joined with a Democrat from Indiana, Pete Visclosky, to introduce a bill that would reauthorize the Bulletproof Vest Partnership (BVP) Program. The program, which assists in the purchase of protective gear for state and local law enforcement ofďŹ cers, and which was founded by the bipartistan duo in 1999, is only funded through the end of this ďŹ scal year and needs a new injection of congressional cash to continue. “The men and women in our local law enforcement play an essential role in safeguarding our communities and protecting the freedoms all of us enjoy,â€? said LoBiondo. “Bulletproof vests and body armor have saved thousands of law enforcement ofďŹ cers. However, they cannot protect the lives of those who do not have access to them. As protectors of our lives and our property, it is imperative that we give law enforcement the critical tools they need so they may do their jobs and carry out their duties safely and efďŹ ciently. The Bulletproof Vest Partnership progam is one of those critical tools.â€? LoBiondo’s ofďŹ ce said that since 1999 more than 13,000 jurisdictions throughout the United States have participated in the program. Some $300 million in federal funds have contributed to the purchase of some 800,000 vests. LoBiondo’s and Visclosky’s bill, HR-5742, would extend the program though Fiscal Year 2016. Traditionally, state and local (and tribal) jurisdictions could apply for a 50 percent matching BVP grant to purchase body armor. In 2009 and 2010, though, because cash-strapped municipalities were often cutting police funding, some jurisdictions were able to apply for a waiver to that 50-percent rule and have vests paid for entirely with federal funds. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, the need for bulletproof vests became very apparent in 2010: “Following two years of declining law enforcement line-of-duty deaths, the country realized a dramatic 37 percent increase in ofďŹ cer deaths in 2010. Fifty-nine of the 160 ofďŹ cers killed in 2010 were shot during violent encounters; a 20 percent increase over 2009 numbers.â€? — Rick Mellerup rickmellerup@thesandpaper.net

rofessional triathlete and former Olympian Jarrod Shoemaker, a Harvey Cedars summer resident, is hoping to draw many athletes to the borough for the ďŹ rst Harvey Cedars Triathlon, scheduled Sunday, June 3, beginning at 8 a.m. in Sunset Park. Shoemaker said the event starts with a half-mile swim in the bay off Sunset Park. The competitors will then hop on their bikes for a 12-mile race. “The bike ride will be a double loop from Sunset Park to the Arts Foundation,â€? said Shoemaker. “The ďŹ nal event is a 5-K run, in which they’ll go from the park to the North Beach border and back twice.â€? Shoemaker said he is working on the triathlon with Streamline Events, which coordinates six similar events in Massachusetts and another in Florida. Registration fee is $85 per person. “Harvey Cedars is a place that I really love and thought it would be the perfect location for a triathlon,â€? said the 29 yearold Shoemaker. “I worked as a lifeguard and I regularly ran the Dog Day Race and once swam the length of Harvey Cedars in the ocean.â€? Shoemaker was a member of the U.S. triathlon team that competed in the 2008 Beijing Games. “I ďŹ nished 18th out of the 50 triathletes from around the world,â€? he said. “Even though I didn’t qualify as a medalist, it was a thrill and an honor to represent my country and be a part of the team. I’ve been training for a triathlon coming up in Madrid this weekend. I compete in about 15 to 20 triathlons a year." Helping him coordinate the event is his sister, Martha Shoemaker, who graduated from New York University last year and was a four-year varsity swimmer and captain of her college team as a senior. The other coordinator is Bill Burnett, owner of Streamline Events, who was an All-American swimmer at Division III Ohio Wesleyan University. “Martha is looking to participate in the event,â€? said Shoemaker. "My mother (Mae) and younger brother Jake might be in it, too. Athletics has been a big tradition in our family. I might even run the Dog Day Race Continued on Page 50

Park ’n’ Ride For LEH Exit 58 Still in Pipeline Real Garden State Parking Lot
A
fter meeting with New Jersey Turnpike Authority officials last week, Assemblyman Brian E. Rumpf said he was encouraged that a commuter parking lot will someday be a reality in Little Egg Harbor Township. “I came away from the meeting more pleased and hopeful than at any other meeting we have had with them. It felt like a genuine step forward,” said Rumpf. “They seemed receptive to the idea, but I have to caution my enthusiasm and recognize they have to go back to their board of directors before they can move forward.” Ninth District legislators Rumpf, Sen. Christopher J. Connors and Assemblywoman DiAnne C. Gove met with turnpike authority Executive Director Veronique Hakim and other turnpike officials on May 15. Little Egg Harbor Mayor John Kehm, Deputy Mayor Ray Gormley and Ocean County Freeholder Jack Kelly also attended, as well as a representative from the governor’s office. “We recounted the history of the project, and there was recognition of the abundant efforts made to get a commuter lot in Little Egg Harbor,” said Rumpf. He said the 9th District was able to separate the commuter lot from an issue that had appeared to be a roadblock: the turnpike’s wish to divest itself of a local access road it owns, Poor Man’s Parkway. Poor Man’s Parkway is a back road that runs parallel to the Parkway from Little Egg Harbor to connect with Stage Road in Bass River Township; 2.3 miles are located in Ocean County and 1.8 miles in Burlington County. According to Rumpf, the authority was attempting to trade its part in developing a commuter parking lot for the ability to abandon the roadway to local or county jurisdiction, but strapped local governments don’t want to take up the maintenance. Rumpf said it was the 9th District’s position that the two issues should be separate. “The 9th District, myself, Sen. Connors and Assemblywoman Gove took the lead in so far as separating the two issues. We recounted the history of the project, and they recognized the abundant efforts that have been made to locate a park-and-ride in Little Egg Harbor. The authority agreed to separate the two issues.” Through the years, commuters to points both north and south have left their vehicles on the shoulder of Route 539 and in unlighted dirt lots created by parking illegally on land owned by the authority. Two years ago, when construction began on the third lane of the Parkway, the authority posted the property with “no parking” signs. Lately those have been taken down. Garbage had also accumulated in these unauthorized lots. According to a 9th District press release, construction of a commuter lot would provide an appropriate,

omething magic happens after closing time at Bob’s Carpet Services in Barnegat at least twice a week. Pallets and displays are moved aside to make space for tables, and tournaments commence with all the sport of competitive poker – without all the gambling. On a recent Saturday, Chris Trotta hosted his largest Magic the Gathering tournament to date since his store, Trotta’s Cards and Hobbies, has been nestled in the back of his parents’ carpet store for a year and a half. “We’re running out of room, but that’s all right,” said Trotta. “It’s just something fun, and a little different. We get a lot of new people, and we’re trying to make this grow.” Twenty dedicated players were wide-eyed as children on Christmas morning as they ripped open glossy, squeaky wrappers from fresh packs of Magic the Gathering’s latest expansion set, Avacyn Restored, which the tournament doubled as a presale for. Players paid $30 for six packs with which to construct a deck of at least 40 cards to compete with that night. They also received two additional packs for participating, with the top four winners picking up an additional nine packs. Each game represents a battle between mighty wizards, known as “planeswalkers,” who employ the magical spells, items and fantastical creatures depicted on individual Magic cards to defeat their opponents. Magic the Gathering remains popular since its inception in 1993 – with approximately 12 million players as of 2011 – largely due to the expansion sets put out regularly, and its ever-changing and complex set of rules. Collecting Magic cards can be very valuable due to their rarity and utility in game play. A mint condition “Black Lotus” from the game’s opening Alpha Set from 1993 is now worth $4,000, according to cardkingdom.com. An unopened box of packs from the Alpha set can go for $10,000, according to Trotta. Trotta hosts official DCI (formerly Duelists Convocation International) sanctioned events, which allows players to accrue Planeswalker Points – an international ranking system online developed by the game’s parent company, Wizards of the Coast. The company provides card shop owners such as Trotta with software that randomly chooses pairs of opponents to compete in the multiround tournament and calculate best overall records. Some players competed with d reams of one day making it through one of several Pro Tour qualifiers and going on to international events that include a world championship. Last year’s “Worlds” drew 375 players from 60 countries and offered cash prizes of up to $45,000.
Peter Squindo, 20, of Manahawkin may be one of those players, but prefers events like Trotta’s on Saturday, where the playing field is evened by having to construct a deck on the spot from packs of the latest set. “The pros spend at least $300 to $500 on a deck to compete,” he said. Squindo did a research project in high school on the game’s creator, Richard Garfield. “The one card he designed had an action that basically said, ‘Propose to Lily. If she accepts, you both win.’” Will Jerome of Barnegat was previously one of the top 100 players in the state and is training to become an official judge at DCI sanctioned events. “I have extensive knowledge of the game,” Jerome said. Russ Russo, 25, of Barnegat has been playing since middle school and enjoys tournaments such as Trotta’s for their human interaction and game play. “You get something real and personal,” said Russo. “It’s kind of like poker; you can read your opponent.” Lauren Macko, 23, of Laurel Springs has been playing for a year, thanks to Russo, and was the lone representative of Earth’s female population at the tournament. “I travel very far to be here,” said Macko. “They’ve been geeks for life; I just play along.” Still, at the heart of it all is a 30-year-old local hobby shop owner just trying to survive. “It helps bring more people in,” said Trotta. “It’s hard to have a hobby shop and have pricing to keep yourself afloat. You can fi nd anything really cheap on the Internet; eBay and other sites like that have kind of killed the hobby store. Honestly, if it wasn’t for my
parents’ store, I wouldn’t be able to have a hobby store. But we have fun.” Trotta hosts regular tournaments twice a week – “Friday Night Magic” and a “Draft Night” on Mondays, in which players open
three packs and pass cards in circles to create decks on the spot. For more information, call 609-6981334 or log onto facebook.com/ trottashobbies. — Michael Molinaro michaelmolinaro@thesandpaper.net
convenient and safe site where commuters could leave their vehicles. The next step in the process is for the turnpike authority engineers to survey the need for a commuter parking lot by looking at the congestion
in other commuter parking lots to the north and surveying drivers from Southern Ocean County. “They will most likely look at the Lacey rest area and Lakehurst Exit 81; these are always packed,”
said Rumpf. The turnpike authority owns land on the southwest side of Route 539, the most likely spot for a lot. “It’s my impression that they will review their ability to construct
on land they already own in order to expedite matters,” Rumpf said. Another meeting either by phone or in person will take place in a couple of months, he added. Continued on Page 52

Much Has Changed In 47-Year History
For Miss Stafford, Pageant’s Legacy Is Empowerment O
By VICTORIA LASSONDE ne of the highlights of the annual Stafford Founder’s Day celebration is the crowning of the new Miss Stafford. A lot has changed since Linda Seekell first accepted the title in 1965, but the tradition still embraces the same values: Today’s Miss Stafford is charismatic, beautiful, brimming with talent and promise – a symbol of youthful femininity to represent the best of the town’s future. In 1964, another beauty pageant was held in Stafford, according to local historian Tim Hart, but it was called the Tercentenary Contest, to mark the 300th anniversary of the establishment of the colony of New Jersey. Some photos from that day, provided by the Historical Society, read “Miss Southern Ocean County” on the back and show nine contestants. The winner was Ida Roos. The following year, 1965, was the first official Miss Stafford pageant. According to records Hart has kept, there were two years the Founder’s Day parades were canceled: 1980 and ’81. And in 1974 there were two Miss Staffords listed, in an apparent tie. So, depending on the math, this year’s winner may actually be either the 46th or 47th young woman to earn the title. In the ’70s, the Little Miss Stafford and Little Town Crier pageants were added to the festivities for younger girls and boys ages 5 to 8. In truth, there was a time, when
societal priorities and cultural expectations were different, when the contest placed greater emphasis on a contestant’s ladylike looks than on her educational and professional aspirations. All that has changed since the pageant’s present leadership team reworked the program to accentuate brains, community service and inner beauty. Founder’s Day is Saturday, June 9 – the theme “Downtown Hoedown” – and there’s a lot to be done between now and then to prepare. The whole event will have a country fair feel. “It’s a big job to get it to flow smoothly,” Pageant Director Ashley Austin said. Social networking has helped in marketing and facilitating the process; Facebook has also put the organizers in touch with many of the pageant’s past participants and winners. Since its humble beginnings, “the pageant has evolved into something quite awesome,” according to Austin. “It is one of the main events of (Founder’s Day), aside from the parade and fireworks.” This year will be Austin’s 12th since taking on the pageant, along with Rose Mercadante, in 2001. Ashley’s sister, Jessica Austin-Higgins, is another pageant director. Last year Heidi Hartmann joined the directors’ team. Together they have taken Miss Stafford beyond a mere beauty contest and elevated it to a communitycentered program that cultivates

PAGEANTRY’S PAST: (From top left) Once, swimwear and formal wear were part and parcel of the pageant.Back then, a woman’s place in society was defined by different values, but the event’s communitycentered mission was much the same as it is today. Ida Roos won the Tercentenary Contest of 1964, to mark New Jersey’s 300th birthday. That was the precursor to the Miss Stafford Pageant, which began the following year and has remained a beloved tradition since. Then and now, it’s a matter of hometown pride. self-confident, capable young women. Stafford Township Mayor John Spodofora praised the newer format for the way it judges each contestant not on her appearance but on her overall attributes. “Now the contestants complete 12 short-answer essays, which are scored by our judges,” Austin explained. “The questions we put together allow the judges to hear the contestants’ opinions on many issues concerning them and the community.” The judges vary from year to year, Austin explained. They tend to be Continued on Page 52

ALO, MATES Partner In Eco-Video Project
M
arine Academy of Technology and Environmental Science students recently teamed up with local nonprofit Alliance for a Living Ocean to help increase awareness of critical area environmental issues via the creation of short educational videos. MATES Supervisor John Wnek’s sophomore research methods class broke into small groups to produce the videos, which Wnek hopes will serve “to reach out to both our residential and visiting populations in the summer to better educate people about Barnegat Bay and the ocean.” “Using self-produced video footage, stop motion animation and interviews with local activists and experts, each group of two or three students tackled a specific issue” that ALO campaigns to improve, explained volunteer Kyle Gronostajski, a Surf City resident and lifeguard who is pursuing a career in environmental science. Topics included, he noted, “the impacts of using bottled water, toxins in sediment used for dredging and replenishment, eutrophication of Barnegat Bay, and the seasonal changes due to tourism and the increased demands that puts on our resources and environment.” ALO Executive Director Chris Huch sat in on the video presentations last week to determine a winner. “Despite all being informative and professionally made,” said Gronostajski, “the best was decided to be Monica Douglas and Quinn Dunlea’s presentation on the impact of using single-use plastic water bottles.” Douglas and Dunlea fittingly received reusable water bottles as a prize, and all the students were given memberships to ALO. The videos will be available for viewing on ALO’s website, www.livingocean.org; on YouTube; and in the organization’s office, at 1101 Central Ave. Suite A in Ship Bottom. “We hope to have the videos hosted at other locations as well and are moving forward with looking for partners,” said Huch.

T
hree Barnegat Township male juveniles were recently charged in connection with a break-in last month at the Lillian Dunfee Elementary School. Lt. Keith Germain said Detective Michael Mitchell filed charges of burglary, theft and defiant trespass against the three youngsters, ages 15, 12 and 10. Germain said the juveniles allegedly broke into a recreation equipment shed and removed several playground balls. The stolen items were not recovered. Also, police recently charged a 14-yearold female and 9-year-old male with fourth degree theft in connection with an electrical wire from the back of a Longboat Avenue residence. Germain said the juveniles were identified by witnesses who observed the incident. In both instances, the juveniles were remanded to the custody of their parents and face hearings in Ocean County Juvenile Court. —E.E.
As Huch also pointed out, “This project represents just one of the many opportunities presented by a partnership between ALO and MATES,” in Manahawkin. “The students were able to take what they have learned and use it to create educational tools to inform the public on a wide variety of environmental issues, demonstrating the exceptional success MATES has had educating its students. ALO is excited to continue to work closely with MATES in order to better benefit from one another in the future.” “By now, most of us have come to realize the dire, ever-growing number of issues involving the Barnegat Bay and our little barrier island, Long Beach Island,” remarked Gronostajski. While the work sometimes seems endless, “there are plenty doing their part to make a difference and educate. Alliance for a Living Ocean and the Marine Academy of Technology and Environmental Science are two perfect examples.” For more information, call the ALO office at 609-494-7800. — Juliet Kaszas-Hoch

Juveniles Arrested in Separate Theft Incidents

Bridge Lights Continued from Page 24 istrative clerk in the borough, has been hired as deputy clerk. The new general clerk will be Elaine Pollison. In the public comment portion, water usage was brought up by resident Tom Stiles. “A year ago or so, we were talking about water meters … what happened to the meters?” he asked. (They are installed in the town but not activated.) Stiles particularly referenced “sprinklers without permits” in the borough, saying other towns are charging residents for sprinkler systems. He suggested that a sprinkler could count as a spigot head, if the borough is counting water usage that way. “I guess that’s one way of looking at it; we’ve never thought about that,” said Councilman Michael Spark. Spark did say, regarding water metering, that the time will come “when the DEP (state Department of Environmental Protection) will tell us, ‘You have to.’” “If we did something like that, people would be more careful,” Stiles said. “It wouldn’t be hard to find them; all you’d have to do is walk around Barnegat Light at 4 in the morning and you’d see all the water going down the storm sewer.” “I don’t think it’s going down the storm sewer,” Mayor Kirk Larson said. He said the potential cost of enforcement has to be weighed, since the town doesn’t have a water department to oversee the issue. The meters in town aren’t as easily read as some because the meter pits are under standing water. “If I wanted to pay somebody to go around and catch everybody, that’s another salary,” remarked Larson. “We’d have to see how much more labor-intensive it would be. The last thing I want to do is have to hire another person.” In the end, borough council members agreed to see how Beach Haven and Harvey Cedars fare in their endeavors of water metering. “We have locked up the hose down at the dock so people aren’t washing their boats,” said Councilman Scott Sharpless. The borough has exceeded its water allocation permit during the summer months. It also contracts to sell water to two neighboring sections of Long Beach Township. The borough got a letter from the DEP several months ago, but thus far, the DEP has not issued fines against Barnegat Light for exceeding water usage, borough officials confirmed this week. “There have been no fines levied against us. We have gone over, but they never go over during other months of the year. We have received no official notification of anything,” Wetmore said. On a brighter note, Councilwoman Dottie Reynolds announced a new arrangement where-

Sea Oaks Continued from Page 32 a view that will no longer be there,” he said. “I will face the back of the townhouses. When I bought here, I was not told of any more development. We looked at other senior developments that had townhouses and we liked Sea Oaks. When we bought, there was no mention of any more building. We were shown a model of the development and were guaranteed we would live on a golf course and have an unobstructed view.” Peter Ferwerda of the Warren Grove section said in order to fall under the special PRD higher density zone, a development is required to have at least 100 acres and leave 12 percent of that in natural open space – not recreation space like a golf course. He also questioned whether the site had already met the density because of the square footage of the homes, the additional parking lots, clubhouse amenities and the Inn. Arlene Berriel said she purchased her home in 2004 and though she was told there would be an Inn, she was not informed of townhouses. “When it was first discussed, it was to be 25 (inclusive). Now it’s 16, and an additional 29. What’s the rush to get the 29 when the 16 haven’t even been built?” Sea Oaks resident Ann Moire said she believed the golf course was for sale and the townhouse approval was a way to make the property more attractive to a buyer. “We feel it’s being done to benefit the petitioner. He is going to sell the property to someone else and it improves his chances. But our best intentions are not being considered by the board, only that of the petitioner.” The board also listened to the objections of George Brady, a landowner to the south of Sea Oaks, who is suing the town and Sea Oaks, claiming an excess amount of water is being discharged onto his property. The board watched an amateur video he took of water rushing onto neighboring property and his own. But Brady couldn’t supply the dates of the rain events or show any definitive landmarks. The board carried the application for one more meeting to allow any residents of Sea Oaks to present their homeowners point of sale contracts to see if there are guarantees or provisions promising an unobstructed view of the golf course. The application was carried to June 7. After the meeting, Mezzina voiced his displeasure at having to come back to yet another planning board meeting to hear the board’s decision. “I feel I am being treated unfairly. It’s been six months of a prolonged hearing. It’s not my doing to prolong it, that’s ridiculous,” he said of some of the public claims. “It’s costing me a lot of money in fees to the professionals, mine and the township’s,” he said. ❖

Miss Stafford Continued from Page 46 residents of neighboring towns. They are in no way affiliated with any of the contestants, and their anonymity is retained throughout the pageant process. Spodofora’s daughter, Carrie Spodofora, was named Miss Stafford 1997. “It was a great experience for her and all of the other young ladies involved,” he said. “Around our state and country, many of these smaller pageants have been disappearing, and that is sad, as it gives these young ladies an opportunity to participate in an event that puts an emphasis on presentation, grace and an ability to answer questions on the spot,” he added. Austin said she enjoys watching the process unfold, from the time the contestants sign up, not quite sure what they’re getting themselves into, to the day they step onstage and await the judges’ decision. “We see them grow and blossom over the six-week period that we work with them,” she said. The pageant activities call upon contestants to tap into the qualities that make them well-rounded, successful young women. Spodofora agreed: The real benefit of the event is “watching these young ladies go up on stage and overcome their fear while developing confidence in themselves.” Throughout her reign, Spodofora explained, Miss Stafford’s duties include attending ribboncutting ceremonies and other community events, such as the town Christmas tree lighting. Nuts and Bolts The pageant is open to any female year-round resident of Stafford Township between the ages of 15 and 19. The age of eligibility was increased to 19 this year (birthday cutoff is June 1). About
Safe Boating Continued from Page 30 is not five minutes away.” The Coast Guard and the National Boating Safety Council may be stressing life jacket use this week, but a quick look at the Coast Guard recreation boating statistics for 2010 shows a number of other things to be concerned about as well. Here are some other hints to make sure your weekend – and the summer ahead – are safe ones on the water. Stay alert: 759 recreational boating accidents in 2010 were blamed on operator inattention. An additional 375 were caused by “improper lookout.” Take a class: Operator inexperience was responsible for 358 accidents in 2010. Slow down: Excessive speed was involved with 337 accidents. Say sober: While “just” 330 accidents were caused by intoxicated boaters, those accidents resulted in 126 deaths, the most of any cause category.
mid-April is the time when the directors start meeting with the contestants and their parents to discuss the events leading up to Founder’s Day, and to sign a Code of Conduct to preempt the kind of crazy “pageant mom” behavior that makes the TLC network reality show “Toddlers & Tiaras” so popular yet tarnishes the image of reputable pageant organizations. The first meeting will take place at Ocean Acres Elementary School on Monday, April 16, at 5:30 p.m. in the multipurpose room attached to the school. Those interested in participating should email missstaffordpageant@yahoo.com. The week after the initial meeting, all the girls meet at a local community center to write and submit their essays along with one idea for a community event or service project. During the six weeks leading up to Founder’s Day, the girls learn about their hometown history, meet the mayor and council, interact with the pageant judges and Founder’s Day officials, and enjoy a night of bowling with the Little Miss Stafford and Little Town Crier pageant participants. “The little ones love it,” Austin said. “We pair them up with one or two Miss Stafford contestants, and they can bowl with the ‘princesses.’ It’s cute.” The day before Founder’s Day, there’s a rehearsal on the stage at the Doc Cramer Fields, where the young ladies can practice walking in high heels, go over the biographies the emcee will read and vote among themselves for Miss Congeniality. Founder’s Day begins at the firehouse, where the girls help serve breakfast to seniors, hosted by the Ladies Auxiliary. The parade float departs from the firehouse, with the contestants decked out in theme-related costumes while the reigning Miss Stafford wears her gown, sash and crown and waves to the crowd. After the parade they Watch out for waves and wakes: The force of moving water caused 272 recreational boating accidents that year. Beware of hazardous waters: 265 accidents occurred in known trouble spots. Keep your boat repaired: Machinery failure resulted in 257 accidents. Follow the rules of the road: 211 skippers didn’t in 2010, resulting in 16 deaths and 202 injuries. Pay attention to weather forecasts: 209 accidents were blamed on the weather. Still, the number that clearly stood out in a 77-page report was the one related to life jacket use, or, more accurately, non-use. Drowning was the cause of death for 484 boaters in 2010, far ahead of the runner-up, trauma (123 deaths). True, 57 of the drowning victims were wearing life jackets. But 395 were not (in 32 cases it wasn’t known if life jackets had been employed or not). The 2012 boating season is here. Ready, set, wear it! — Rick Mellerup rickmellerup@thesandpaper.net

attend opening ceremonies at the Doc Cramer ballpark, and the pageant starts at 7 p.m., before the fireworks. The girls’ final score is a total of points earned for event attendance, essay writing, poise, appearance, casual- and formalwear and one random final question. The judges tally the points and name the next Miss Stafford, with first runner-up and Miss Congeniality. The newly crowned Miss Stafford gets a $500 savings bond and a trophy. She gets to keep her crown (the design changes each year) and she gets to have her 20-by-24-inch portrait hung up at town hall, where portraits of previous Miss Staffords hang, dating back to 1990. The top three finalists receive a savings bond, Austin said, and all participants receive prize packs that include gift certificates and other goodies from local businesses. Mayor Spodofora believes in the pageant’s mission and long-lasting benefits. “Young women today need to continue to develop confidence in their own abilities and be willing to present themselves in our very competitive workforce,” he said. “I have watched so many of these young ladies who either participated or won our Miss Stafford pageants move on to very successful careers. … I feel every young lady who participates in this pageant comes out of the event a little richer in experience and confidence.” Some previous Miss Staffords have become lawyers (Spodofora’s daughter Carrie is one), veterinarians and teachers, Austin said. Even some contestants who did not win return year after year just to help out and promote the community involvement. Several have gone on to other, larger pageants in hopes of earning college scholarships. For Katie Vitulli, Miss Stafford 2009, the pageant was a life-shaping experience, a major confidence builder and an important steppingstone in her path of personal growth. She feels the experience taught her poise and composure, public speaking, interview skills and many other important life lessons. “Now that I am no longer Miss Stafford, I find myself still returning yearly to cheer on the girls and watch,” she said. “(The pageant) granted me lifelong friends and amazing memories that I will forever keep.” Just two weeks ago, Vitulli was crowned Miss New Jersey USA Ambassador, which is a government-funded scholarship pageant system that names one young lady to represent the state of New Jersey for one year through public appearances. If not for the Miss Stafford pageant, Vitulli said, “I never would have felt prepared enough to attempt any other pageant systems.” At this year’s Nationals, to be held in July in Tampa, Fla., Vitulli will compete against all the other state winners. She’ll Hand Over the Title – but Keep the Crown The reigning Miss Stafford, Rachel Marino,
NJ Transit Continued from Page 44 Rumpf acknowledged that much hinges on whether there is money available for the project, but he added that no local or county money should be necessary. “My feeling is with all the tolls paid daily on the Parkway, something as relatively small as a commuter parking lot can be achieved,” he said. The 9th District released this joint statement to the press on Thursday: “Overall, we feel the meeting was very productive as all parties involved discussed the proposed commuter lot in the context of a regional infrastructure need. While recognizing that there is still more work to be done, we are more optimistic than at any other time during the ongoing deliberations, that there is a general consensus of how important this proposal is for Southern Ocean County. During the meeting, we were advised that the Authority’s engineers would conduct an expedited review of the commuter lot proposal so that future deliberations will focus more on specific aspects of the project. “We are grateful that that the Executive Director personally attended the meeting and that several representatives of the Authority were present to address any inquiries that were raised.” — Pat Johnson patjohnson@thesandpaper.net
will turn 18 in May. She was born and raised in Manahawkin, growing up in the lakefront home she shares with her parents, Mark and Mary, and two younger siblings, David, 16, and Mariah, 14. On the brink of adulthood, the Southern Regional high school senior has a schedule as busy as her future is bright. She takes four Advanced Placement classes and one Honors, is active in the high school drama department, runs track and cross-country after school and works at Prezioso’s Italian Restaurant on weekends. As a member of the National Honor Society, she helps run a buddy program for her classmates with special needs. She has also been an active Girl Scout throughout all 12 years of school. Upon graduation, she will have her choice of numerous schools, having been accepted to Boston College, Villanova University, University of Maryland College Park Campus (on an ROTC scholarship) and George Washington College. Of all the different parts of her life that work together to make up her whole self, Marino said she feels two define her best: The cross country team, which is a smaller group of girls with an intense bond and a heavy workload (“I like to work hard and make myself stronger,” she said); and her improvisation class, which gives her a creative outlet and develops her stage presence. “I give a lot of credit to my teacher for bringing that (confidence) out of me,” she said. She signed up for the pageant on a whim last year at a friend’s suggestion. She enjoyed the whole process, from signup to Founder’s Day – bowling with the Little contestants was “so much fun, because you get to meet all those kids and their parents.” Then there was the dinner at Kubel’s Too in Brant Beach with all the judges, where the girls go to each table to meet the judges and answer some questions. With the Miss Stafford title comes a sense of responsibility that Marino welcomes, feeling that she represents not just the young women of Stafford, but all the young people in town. “I think I put that on myself,” she said. While each Miss Stafford has requirements to fulfill, she also has the opportunity to make her reign unique, to make her own mark. One way she can do that is with a community service project of her own design. Marino designed a workshop on positive self-image for teens and organized it with help from the Stafford Township Library’s teen librarian. They did finger-painting and other exercises to draw upon inner strengths. “That was very successful,” she said. She also organized an improv coffeehouse event for residents of the Emeritus senior living facility. Marino said she feels the best kind of Miss Stafford candidate is someone who is passionate, well rounded and involved in the community. Sometimes at a function she might be asked to say a few words off the cuff, so it helps to be ready for anything. But anyone with an interest should give it a try, she said. “I think that even if there’s somebody who wants to do it, and they’re like, ‘Oh my God, I don’t think I can,’ I would say, ‘Go for it anyway.’ You don’t want to regret not doing something just because you were scared. And I think that just being a part of it and being on a stage builds your confidence instantly.” One of the nicest things about the pageant process, in Marino’s experience, is the absence of cattiness or rivalry among the contestants. Everyone is really supportive of each other, she said. Of all the memories and lessons she will take away from her time as Miss Stafford, Marino said her reign has really shown her the importance of cultivating relationships, and the role networking plays in getting ahead and accomplishing goals. Having attended so many different events, she said, she now has a network of people she can turn to, if need be, for advice or recommendations. “My parents have taught me that, my whole life,” she said, “but I think to see it actually play out and see it in action, you realize, ‘Oh, wow, this is important!’” Marino has a glass curio cabinet in her room where she keeps her crown and a scrapbook from her reign, along with her first-ever trophy she got at Founder’s Day last year. She looks at those items and imagines one day they’ll probably be stored in a box, and she’ll show them to her kids. “It’s funny to see these little things that add to you, that make you who you are.” Y victorialassonde@thesandpaper.net

54 Continued from Page 10 es a large element of uncertainty into the elections. If the positive trends in economic growth and employment continue, President Obama and the Democrats’ election prospects improve considerably. A sweep becomes possible. If, on the other hand, the upward advance peters out, then it’s anybody’s election. No one who hopes to move the country in a positive, progressive direction should relax until the polls close on Election Day. The Republican right will not bow out of politics without a struggle. The American people can win in November, but only if we take nothing for granted and get out there and fight for our country’s future. Carole Marks Barnegat Light
Even when the rain pours down on you, The sun always seems to shine, Everyone can have a part of you, But I know a part of you is mine. So as the sun is glistening, and I am listening To what you have to say, The seagulls are flying and I hear them crying, When I leave you, I feel that way. I can look at you for hours, But there’s always something new to see, I can’t seem to get enough of you, Yet you make me feel so free, It’s such a mystery … As I go, you turn to wave goodbye, And even though my mind is clear, I’m filled with the notion that I won’t see my ocean “’Til next year …”

Winter will come and chill my heart, But the winter always seems To take me away To my Long Beach Island dreams.
I know that I can’t always be with you, But you know you’re on my mind Every time I come to be with you, I never know what I’ll find.
I can always rely On my Long Beach Island dreams … Karen Sweeney Surf City
All the pain and everyday worries, Always seem to disappear, As I feel you getting closer to me, I can sense that peace is near. And oh, you don’t know what you do for me, Oh, the things you make me see, It’s such a mystery …

Club, where he is a member, Potter has, of course, been logging miles on his bike in preparation for the 90-day journey. “I put on a lot of miles, at least 2,000, maybe 2,500 miles. … It’s exciting. It’s great. It’s all for a good cause,” he said. “There are two missions here. One is done. By the time I leave, the money will be raised,” he said. His fundraising goal was $25,000, but he said he had reached that just prior to his fi nal send-off party and fundraising auction at TGI Friday’s in Manahawkin on Monday. “I have a funny feeling it’s going to go over $30,000. … People are very generous. They have big hearts. And I’m very thankful.” Potter said local and state PBA organizations have been some of his biggest supporters, as well as family and friends. “The second (mission),” he continued, “is that I want to get this done. I’m just one of those people that generally does what he says he’s going to do.” This isn’t the fi rst time Potter has taken a two-wheel journey for a good cause. In 1998, he took three weeks off from his job as a lieutenant in the alcohol and drug testing unit and

rode his bike from Manahawkin Lake Park to Florida to raise money for Ocean of Love, an Ocean County charity benefiting local children with cancer. “I heard about all the great things they were doing,” said Potter. “When I knew I was going to do the ride again, I (picked) Ocean of Love because it’s for kids and it’s local, and I know all the money goes right to them.” Local is important to Potter, who was born and raised in Toms River, attended Ocean County College and Stockton College, lived for a short time in Island Heights and moved to Manahawkin in 1992. Raising money to benefit cancer patients is also dear to Potter, who lost his wife Donna in December 2009, after an eight-year battle with colon cancer. This trip is much different than last time, he said, not only because it’s four times longer and in vastly different terrain and elevations, but “the biggest change for me now will be that the kids won’t be along, I’ll miss them, and my wife won’t be there,” he said, emotional about the thought of the journey without his late wife. Potter will take photos along the way and blog from the road, posting on his Facebook page titled “Craigs Charity Bike Ride Across America.” He expects to fi nish his journey on home turf at the end of August. — Ashley Tedesco ashleytedesco@thesandpaper.net

He Brings LBI Mornings to Life Continued from Page 64 and his editing techniques, as well as a touch of humor with his comments – and just being Jack. “His morning report is viewed all over the country and in different parts of the world,” she added. One avid viewer, in fact, is currently serving with the military in Afghanistan. Mike Zepecki, who spent summers on the Island and worked as a Long Beach Township lifeguard in the mid-1980s, “watches it and thrives on it,” said Bushko. “It gives him a piece of home. It’s really great for me to be able to do that for him. It makes it worthwhile.” Mike Dancha, who runs the township Lifeguard in Training Program and teaches in Pennsylvania, shows his class the videos, said Bushko. Bushko “has tapped into a new way of connecting with others by bringing one of the best pieces of LBI, the sunrise, to people every day,” said Andersen. “Among the ever-present talents of Jack Bushko is his eye for beauty,” noted Kerzner, owner of Acme Surf and Sport. It was because Bushko lost sight in one eye, and regained that sight after surgery, that the morning report began. In 2010, “I went blind in my right eye and didn’t have insurance,” he explained, so Kerzner and Elaine Molloy held a fundraiser at Nardi’s that raised $5,000 for his surgery. “I was really blown away. … I wanted to find a way to repay them and Dr. (Alan) Erickson.” The day after his surgery, he watched the sunrise on the beach, and the day after that, he took his video camera with him – and realized he’d found a way to thank everyone who had helped him. Kerzner wanted to help his friend because “he really is the definition of a great guy. On Jack's gravestone it will read: ‘Jack gave his
all to all that he was able to give.’ … When he decided to give back to people for helping him with his eye surgery, he thought what better way than to bring them a morning sunrise report. Thus, born was the morning report on LBI by Jack Bushko.” Bushko, who is originally from Ship Bottom, has been making videos for 25 years, including for businesses in Puerto Rico and Florida. He is also an avid waterman, teaching stand-up paddleboarding and windsurfing for Island Surf and Sail in Brant Beach, and a home improver for hire. He doesn’t typically film every day in the winter, but tries to in the summer, minus mornings met with pouring rain, perhaps. And while he has filmed in most of the Island municipalities, he often videos in Ship Bottom (close to both Wawa and 7-Eleven coffee), but remarked, “I want to start traveling a bit. I’m trying to mix it up a bit, give it some variety. “I’m also trying to use local music,” like that of surfer and musician Marc Halikas, “to tie in the local image.” The morning reports are not a financial enterprise – Bushko makes no money from the project – but he would like at some point to try for a tourism grant, or pick up a sponsor. He also envisions creating a video about Long Beach Island history, “so that people know another side of LBI” when they visit. In the meantime, people are welcome to contact him to help publicize area goings-on via the morning beach reports, which Andersen calls “the perfect vehicle for messaging local facts and events.” To view the LBI beach report videos, visit lbieventz.com or check out Bushko’s Facebook page.

the fire company needs $580,000 in three to five years. Schwartz shrugged and said, “OK.” Schwartz had just finished informing the borough of the savings his committee has reaped for the town. By switching the phone company from Verizon to Comcast, the borough stands to save $6,398. Canceling a leased copier and purchasing a newer copier for the offices at the Grist Mill will save the annual $1,867 lease fee. The new copier was $425 and includes a fax and scanner. Changing a rented copier in the borough hall to a lease agreement for a newer Energy Star copier will save $386 a year. “It’s newer technology, and with Energy Star we are looking to save money in a couple of corridors.” Councilwoman Sue Marshall said the annual Fourth of July celebration would be held on Wednesday, July 4. It costs the four towns participating around $18,000 for fireworks; the cost is split among them. The Pinelands Independence Association is selling tickets to a BlueClaws baseball game for $10 to raise money to defray the cost. — Pat Johnson

ing marine fires. The fire department is funded through three avenues: It receives $42,500 annually from the borough and approximately $8,000 in donations through the annual mailer fund drive (going on right now). Coin drops during the summer net an additional $9,000. The total working budget is just short of $60,000. In contrast, neighboring Little Egg Harbor’s fire districts with similar call volumes have budgets of $250,000, paid through a separate tax on property owners. Additional needs of the fire company include $20,000 to repair the kitchen, $10,000 in structural repairs to the building, $3,200 in radio equipment and an unknown cost to replace the heating unit.

Hoarders’ Seminar Trashed; Jeremy Tackles Bull Sharks I
really should concentrate purely on fishing for this holiday weekend’s column. Nah. (Disclaimer: The following is based on an actual occurrence, though I may have melted down the hard cold facts a wee bit.) I saw this advertisement for a “Hoarders Seminar” and felt professionally compelled to attend. I figured it would be a load of really cool people, all mulling around eating bagels, sipping energy drinks and ravenously talking about all the cool stuff they’ve hoarded. Instead of meeting a gathering of compatriots in arms – a who’s-who of hoarding – everyone arriving at the hosting hotel quickly and quietly slid into an auditorium, where word had it “the speaker” would soon be arriving. I figured “the speaker” would be some kind of hoarding guru, the king of collectibles, the baron of minutia, the mogul of … you get the drift. I scurried up to the very front row. One doesn’t see hoarding aristocracy that often. A hush fell, the lights dimmed (or maybe it was the other way around) and up to the on-stage podium strutted this unassuming, middle-aged, thinking-of-graying man. There was nothing “extrahoardinary” about him, I internalized, mentally nudging myself in the ribs. “Good one, eh?” This was an inauspicious mental start for me. I shoulda just bailed out then and there – to go see what sorta takehomeables I could gather in the lobby area. Without so much as a “Hello,” the speaker announced, “Hoarding is curable.” Huh? What’s your problem, dude? I looked back to the packed auditorium, expecting to see confused faces. Instead, there was this composite expression of rapt agreement, as if a prophet or a shaman had spoken. I swung my attention back toward the stage. This was gonna get freaky. As if there was an air of doubt adrift in the upper rafters of the auditorium, he repeated, quite loudly, “Hoarding is curable!” After just standing there for a minute, he said, “Now, I want everyone to greet your curable neighbor.” Just like that, everyone began joyously turning to the folks sitting next to them. A few over-emoted people even hugged each other. I got nervous. That’s when the fellow to my right, a skinny soul, offered a hand, saying, “Hi, I’m Hal and I hoard gum wrappers and chewed chewing gum.” Before I couldn’t emit so much as an “Imagine that,” he had shaken my hand and rapidly placed it on my shoulder – likely feeling around for some Doublemint. He seemingly expected me to pitch in during this freaky meet-andgreet. I could only muster a nervous, “My

I was all but rescued by a hugely hefty fellow to my left, who pulled me his way. “Don’t pay any attention to gum nuts there. My name is Oscar. I’m a recovering hoarder of dolls.” I got out, “Dolls?” before being smothering by his hug, reminiscent of my massively bosomed aunts from back in the good-old days. My inside voice squeaked out, “Looks more like you hoarded calories.” I pulled away, saying I had to jot down some notes – which was true. Note to self: At future hoarding seminars always sit between the gals who hoard chocolate candies and ones who hoard see-through tank tops. I was actually relieved when Mister Hoardercurer leaned toward the microphone and hand signaled quiet. He then began with what I felt could have been a sidesplitting skit. “How do you know if you’re a hoarder?” He asked, then paused. Big mistake. Not realizing it was a relatively rhetorical question, I blurted out, “Uh, if you ask the people

sitting around you at a restaurant if you could have their uneaten peas and carrots to take home to your collection … you might be a hoarder.” Nary a chuckle from the crowd. Try again. “How about: If you have trouble sleeping at night because your bed keeps shaking from all the gerbils balled up under it … you just might be a hoarder.” No crowd response, short of a high-pitched man’s voice in the far back yelling, “What the hell’s wrong with gerbils, a**-hole?!” Feeling the moment slipping away, I pulled out the big guns. “If people constantly drift into your yard because they mistakenly think you’re having a huge yard sale … you might be a hoarder.” Come on, people, it works for Foxworthy. I’ll bet he hires a redneck audience, dirt-cheap. The speaker broke in. “Are you done, Mr. … I didn’t get your name.” In a last ditch effort, I offered, “Which name do you want? I keep thousands of ’em in crumbling cardboard boxes all over my house.” The man just stared blankly at me. I was tempted to break into a little of Gaga’s “My Poker Face.” Instead, I offered my surname. My big mistake. “Well, let me tell you something, Mr. Mann, this is exactly why there is such pain and suffering surrounding the illness known as hoarding. People mock and vilify individuals afflicted with
the irrational and irresistible urge to gather and collect items – until their lives become obsessed with seeking more and more. They become fixated, sometimes fatally, often ruling out all other phases of life – including reality.” To this, the crowd issued odd expulsions of air akin to “Amen” at a tent revival. The speaker hammered onward. “In hoarding, anything, and I mean anything, can provoke an overwhelming passion, warping into an obsession and finally a lifelong illness. Yes, it can last for decades on end.” I leaned toward gum guy and whispered, “I’ll bet people who hoard diseases don’t have to worry about decades, eh?” “Shhhh!” he hissed, rudely. I don’t take that from anyone, even a working weirdo, so I leaned real close to his ear, whispering, “Hey, dude, I’m pretty sure there’s wads and wads of gum stuck under your seat.” No, “Shhhh!” this time. I watched his upright profile, as he stared staunchly forward – for maybe five seconds. Then, he leaked his gaze downward toward his seat. Soon, his left hand left the armrest and I could feel his body going more and more askew. In no time, he was all but bent over, both hands groping around below. When he finally sat up, he had a frightening, odd smile. He glanced over toward me, threw me a half smile and a little nod of approval. I felt a Continued on Page 59

Continued from Page 58 surge of nausea, when I noticed he was now chewing away on something. Stunned, I looked forward and realized the overly-observant speaker had caught me in the act. “OK, Mr. Mann, since you’re obviously trying to hoard attention, how about you serve as the guinea pig for the hoarding test? Tell me, do you indubitably keep single unmatched socks?” “Damn straight.” “And why?” I saw him weaving his hoarder trap and went pious on him. “It’s biblical, dude,” I said, semi-confidently. “What!?” “Think of the missing socks as prodigal. Someday they’ll realize the folly of their ways and return home. If prodigal socks return and find nothing waiting, it could cause a rip in the tender fiber of the universe. Uh, amen.” He and I both knew I had pulled that out of my you-know-where but I still looked left and right with a righteous little smile. “You know, Mr. Mann, I’m glad you’re here today just to demonstrate the absolute denial a hoarder can have.” “I’m not in denial. I hoard it all. Let God sort ’em out.” “OK, then, Mr. Mann, pick a favorite item you, uh, collect.” “Fishing lures. They’re hanging all over my house, inside the crawlspace, in my truck, in my neighbor’s garage …”
“And how many of these lures just don’t work; are useless for catching fish?” he asked. I couldn’t tell a lie. Well, actually I could, I just didn’t feel like it. “Hell, hardly any of the damn things ever worked,” I said in seriousness. A mist of light laughter finally spread throughout the crowd. With that, Mr. Houseofhoarders launched into an impenetrable tirade on the horrors of hoarding and the deep psychological reasons why one “transfers life’s stresses into an illogical, often absurd, gathering of comfort items, meant to compensate for an internalized hatred of one’s own self and further exasperating selfloathing by forcing victims into reclusive hells.” “Hells bells, what are you talking about?” I self-offered at tirade’s end. Mercifully, we came to a long lunch break, during which absolutely no one wanted to be near me. The little brown nosers were all hoarding around Mr. Hoardhounder. So, I went back into the auditorium.

Fishing Continued from Page 59 Sitting there, I eyed the speaker’s brief case. It somehow seemed to be beckoning me, like a vaporous image coaxing me forward with an enticingly motioning forefinger. The crowd was emballed outside, so I snuck up to the case. It was locked. That lasted a quick penknife wiggle. Upon opening, a smile the size of Montana crossed my hoarderiferous countenance. I made a quick grab inside, closed the case and scurried back to my front row seat. On return, the speaker homed in on me again. I was ready. As he singled me out as all that’s wrong in the hoarder-rescuing realm, I held up a balled hand, which contained my briefcase score. “And what have you there, Mr. Mann? A fistful of denial?” “What, these little things? Just some crap I was getting up to throw outside. Here, take a gander.” I approached the stage and opened my hand. Paperclips! His briefcase held enough paperclips to supply Staples, nationwide. As I figured it, he had mountains of them back home.” “These look familiar, dude?” I sneered. “Mr. Mann, are you totally out of your mind!?” “Well, at least I don’t live and breathe paperclips. In fact, I can freely and easily go and throw these suckers outside – into the rain, the cold, rusty, paperclip-hating rain.” “Don’t you dare! I will hurt you, mister. Do you hear me?!” Short story, long, I was escorted out of the seminar – having thrown the paperclips up on stage, where Mr. Hoardaholic frantically rescued each and every one. “Did that crazy man hurt you, Thomas?” Despite my boot into the lobby, I went into my “Last word” mode. I snuck to the auditorium doorway and yelled in, “Holy crap! Look at all the filled dumpsters they just put out down the block!” I zipped out of the hotel laughing, until I got slapped by this cold sinking feeling: What if there really were a buncha filled dumpsters nearby? Holy crap! I ran to my truck. BULL SHARKS NO BULL: Did anyone see Jeremy Wade’s River Monsters on Monday night TV? It was fully and graphically sharkified. Extreme-angler Jeremy hit the East Coast of Florida to seek proof of a growing population of wickedly unpredictable bull sharks. He was working the exact Indian River area I used to haunt during visits down thataway. What made this show enticingly freaky was the fact the famed angler was bank fishing for upriver bulls. He even wore a fighting belt, essentially being chained in to the rod. There’s a great idea when standing at water’s edge fighting 1,000-pound sharks. Hey, it’s all about ratings. Jeremy hoped to prove, once again, that borderline psychotic, people-tasting bull sharks are very inclined to hang out in freshwater. He had already done so in South African freshwater lakes. Bull sharks are the only maneaters capable of tolerating freshwater, thus the utter certainty that the culprit in the beyond-famous “Jaws” saga was a bull and not a great white. Jeremy noted this fact in his dialogue. From close calls I’ve had while surfing and scuba diving around the planet, I’ve oft rated the bull shark as the planet’s worst of the worst – easily out worsting the great white and hammerhead. In fact, many an attack attributed

‘Soar’ Brings Out the Big LBI Supporters Then Down the Island, There Was a Wine Festival to Enjoy Continued from Page 34 Promoting it and bringing more and more tourism here to New Jersey is a big part of it. The people like us who live here and interact here know what we have, but it’s getting it out to the rest of the Delaware Valley and to the rest of the people,” Runyan said. Pepenella said before the event that one of its prime organizers, the late Charlie Kisselman of Ship Bottom, is missed this year. He was instrumental in first inviting Runyan
and others, and he added the angle of recognizing the military. U.S. Army recruiters were there on the beach this year, too, represented by Sgt. Matthew Staggs of the Manahawkin Recruiting Station on East Bay Avenue and Staff Sgt. Michael King, coming from Toms River. Staggs and King said before the ceremonies that recruiting is still going strong locally. “The economy has a lot to do with it, but there are a lot of options
in the Army for college,” King said. “It pays for your college, so a lot of kids use it to help their future. A lot of kids don’t have money nowadays for college; it’s not like their parents can pay $50,000 a year anymore, so they join the Army for a couple years, get their college paid for, get a degree, get some experience.” Among others speaking was Rick Bushnell of ReClam the Bay, who said the grassroots organization is busy not only growing baby clams
and oysters, but educating Islanders and vacationers about steps to a clean environment. “We certainly enjoy the bay and we want have people understand what they can do to improve the bay,” he said. “We count on Congressmen, legislators and municipal people, but frankly, people who can help with the bay are the people who come here for the summer; we need the support of everyone,” Bushnell said.

to whites and hammers have been bulls. I’ve seen small ones, three footers, trying to bite confused waders in Florida. In one case, a lifeguard ran up, grabbed a psycho bull shark by the tail and threw it seaward in a hammer-throw manner. It was back in ten minutes. Making matters worse, bull sharks are infamous one-biters, as this show indicated. There were some “Viewer Discretion Is Advised” photos of attack victims, bitten once in a taste-test manner. One segment of the show perfectly demonstrated how psychotic a bull shark could be. Years back a six-foot bull prowling in very shallow water – as is very common with the species – attacked a young Floridian boy. The fish was busily munching on the lad’s arm when the dad ran out, grabbed the seemingly unconcerned shark by the tail and dragged the fish – and his attached son – onto the beach. The fish still wouldn’t let go of its meal. The lad’s arm was fully severed by the time a group of men had disenfranchised boy and bull shark. I’m not being overly insensitive here. The boy was airlifted and survived, albeit by the skin of his teeth. As for his astray arm, an onlooker on the beach took on the still flapping shark and actually pried the arm out of its mouth. It was rushed back to its rightful owner, where doctors somehow, i.e. miraculously, reattached the limb. The boy, now a teen, has fully recovered. It was a graphic example but it proves bulls can be some crazy-assed
fish. By show’s end, Jeremy caught a small bull shark in fresh/brackish water. No real surprise. Ironically, the shark he landed paled in ominousness next to a truly horrifying 400-pound grouper he first caught in the river. That monster could kill a snorkeler on looks alone. The program actually offered some good tips on night sharking, which was once hugely popular hereabouts – when Holgate (pre-Refuge actions) was open throughout the year and huge browns and duskies roamed the Rip. A few boat anglers still go summer night sharking around Little Egg Inlet. It’s tough to outdo battling 400-pound sharks from the beach. LBI CUP IS UPON US: This is the weekend of the 8th annual LBI Cup (May 25-26), part of the Beach Haven Marlin and Tuna Club’s ultrafull schedule of fishing happenings. The public is highly invited, though you’ll hopefully read this in time to get out there and sign up. Captain’s Meeting is Friday, 7 pm, at the clubhouse. Winnings are $1,500, $1,000 and $500 for 1st, 2nd and 3rd. That’s based on 25 boat entries. The total payout in 2011 was $12,780. The more entrants, the merrier the money. For more info, quickly go to http:// www.lbicup.com/, or call Phil Heller at 609-685-3399. RUNDOWN: The black seabass season is underway, though the wind and swells have made it tough to work places like The Tires.
We can keep 25 fish providing each is 12.5 inches long. As you likely know, tail filaments are not part of the length. The season pauses on Sept. 3, resuming on Sept. 23 to Oct. 14, when it closes until Nov. 1. I’m a tad surprised at that 25-fish bag limit. That won’t cut it, conservation-wise, but we just do as we’re told, right? Fluking remains as iffy as the weather. Even when the skies cooperate, the average bayside and inlet drifts are seldom coming up stellar, even though we all know the fluke numbers are there. That said, there have been some biggies, to six pounds. By the by, despite the ultra-mild winter, spring has been not just normal but has also been punctuated by some seriously chilly nights, including frost in the Pines late last week. That’s vitally significant to bayside fluking. The cooler water moving into the bay through estuary systems keeps the bigger fluke inside, even on the west sides of the bays, which can be superheated by now. Stripering is just not itself. Could it be too much action in the early spring has led to the big bass more closely following northward-bound bunker schools? Could big bass have felt the warmer-than-usual ocean water and sulked southward toward the over-summering holes off the Delmarva? Are the fish simply spread far and wide, responding to mixed messages from the weather? Or, is everything perfectly normal out there
but the fishing pressure hasn’t homed in yet on the hottest spots? As for this upcoming weekend, the weather should align nicely with massive angling effort. The bays will surely feel the angling armies. The canyons aren’t a huge draw, especially with bass events absorbing the interests of many LBI offshorers. How about that huge sheepshead taken off the beach (much less) this past week? See the nearby photo, compliments of the Jingles Bait and Tackle website. That’s the second huge sheepshead I’ve heard about this spring. The other was caught from a boat beneath the Big Bridge, a few weeks back. As I routinely note, sheepsheads were very common in our waters about a century ago. That tells me they could someday return. What a great replacement they would be for closed-out summer tog. The bite and fight between those two species is almost identical. Taste-wise, I might even give the edge to sheepshead, i.e. top-shelf. Bluefish are assuming their usual role of saving many an angling outing. Those perfect eating-sized blues have been accommodating boat and bank anglers everywhere. This is not to say it’s a sure-shot every time. That wouldn’t be fishing. But you can just about bank on a few blues if working inlet water. Go with plastics on jigs to assure hookups. I heard about shoals of kingfish to our south – and coming this way. But, I haven’t gotten a single report of any yet reaching here. Y

Southern Regional Volleyball Team Seeks Another Title Year Team Aims for Consecutive Top-5 Year By RICK MELLERUP s the start of the 2012 New Jersey high school boys volleyball season approached, it wouldn’t have taken a Nostradamus to predict that the Southern Regional High School boys volleyball team
A
would be in the thick of the battle for the state championship this spring. After all, the team has been a perennial contender almost since its inception, racking up a 313-75 record in its dozen years under head coach Eric Maxwell, qualifying for the state tourney in just the second year of its existence. The Rams were Shore Conference champs from 2003 to 2011; state quarterfinalists in 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2008; reached the state semifinals in 2007; and were state champs in 2009 and 2010. Last year they still managed to be state finalists even though, due to graduation, they were in a classic rebuilding mode. Indeed, Maxwell’s charges have finished in the state’s top five every year since 2004! Nope, you didn’t even have to be a seer on the level of those folks who make beginning-of-the-year predictions for grocery store tabloids to figure out the Rams would be in it to win once again. The squad wasn’t rebuilding this year, but was already solidly constructed. Maxwell had plenty of players, including starters, returning from the bunch that finished second in the entire Garden State in 2011. Junior Luke King would be back as the starting setter. He racked up 656 assists in his sophomore year, establishing himself as one of the finest players in his position in the state. And Maxwell had the luxury of having a reliable backup in that key position, in senior Mike Nycz.

ALL SET: (Clockwise from top) Senior Tyler Wilk (23) soars into the air to spike a ball against Christian Brothers Academy. The team celebrates their victory in the finals of the Shore Conference Tournament. Junior Luke King (9) shows off his skills as the starting setter. (Opposite page) Sophomore Mike Gesicki leaps to the net as middle blocker. The team would also feature plenty of dangerous outside hitters in seniors Joe Niccoli and Tyler Wilk (157 kills and 22 blocks last season), along with junior Brandon Lee. Senior Ayrton Bayer (56 kills, 28 blocks) reckoned to have a breakout season at the rightside position and the entire front row would be deep once senior James Rebenski and junior Jimmy Ayers were added into the equation. Maxwell would be directing a solid and experienced back row as well, featuring seniors Sal Annarumma (328 digs), Andrew Clark (120 digs, 26 aces) and Kurt Deixler. The middle, too, featured plenty of experience in the figure of senior Steve Adams. In other words, Maxwell’s team was loaded. And the subject of sophomore middle blocker Mike Gesicki hasn’t been broached yet. You see, once Gesicki was tossed
into the equation, well, let’s put it this way – even a fake Gypsy staring into a cheap imitation crystal ball at the most run down carnival side show in the country, a regular Madame Moussaka, could have predicted great things for the 2012 Rams boys volleyball team. It was obvious as far back as the end of the 2011 season, so much so that this writer – no Nostradamus, to be sure – didn’t pull any punches last June when writing “the 2011 Rams were loaded with talented underclassmen, which means you can bet the north 40 that Southern will make another state championship run in 2012.” The players sensed it as well. “When we got back to the school for a few minutes after the match,” Maxwell said after losing the 2011 title match to Fair Lawn, “the guys were already squawking ‘wait ’till next year.’”
Still, even this writer, one who has covered this program since it took its first baby steps, couldn’t predict just how good the 2012 version would be. This appears to be the best and deepest team Maxwell has ever coached, and that, given his record, is saying something special. Dominating Good Teams Top-seeded Southern defeated Christian Brothers Academy, the second seed, in the finals of the Shore Conference Tournament quite easily on Friday evening, 25-15, 25-22. CBA is no milquetoast of a team – they were ranked fourth in the state despite already having eight losses going into the conference championship tilt. Part of the reason for that still-high ranking is that four of those losses had been to the Rams! The Rams, as usual, have played as tough a schedule as possible while racking up a 35-1 record. They are 14-1 against teams included in StarLedger Top 10 with five wins, now, over CBA, two victories over thirdranked Fair Lawn (revenge is sweet) and two decisions over St. Joseph of Metuchen, the top-ranked squad in New Jersey. That’s right, Southern was only ranked second last week despite having a better record than St. Joe (28-4 as of last Friday) and having defeated the Falcons twice. That’s because St. Joe handed the Rams their only loss back on May 13 during the prestigious Super Six Showcase Tournament. Momentum, apparently, means a great deal to those individuals preparing the Star-Ledger rankings. That’s OK, because the Big Mo has shifted back to the Rams. While Southern was picking apart CBA in the Shore Conference championship match, St. Joe was falling to Old Bridge, “merely” the 12th-ranked squad in New Jersey, in this past weekend’s Greater Middlesex Conference Tournament finals. Southern, therefore, entered the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association state tourney that kicked off on Monday (the Rams had a first-round bye) as the favorite. No doubt about it, Southern has had a dominating year, which brings the discussion back to Gesicki, the team’s dominating player. “You’re a monster!” yelled one Southern fan (in a very full and loud Rams rooting section – what a
63 The SandPaper/Wednesday, May 23, 2012
difference from the program’s early days with games played in front of a handful of parents) to Gesicki during Friday evening’s final match. That may be an understatement. Gesicki is big at 6-6, 205 pounds, and he plays even bigger. He was the team’s leading scorer, with 273 kills and 133 blocks, going into Friday’s action and he added 11 more kills and four blocks in the tourney final. Gesicki was already the fabled program’s alltime leader in blocks with a then-total of 267, having passed Fran Hodgson (257) and Ryan Fredrickson (200). He’s also become only the fourth Ram with over 500 kills (Fredrickson, now an assistant coach, holds the record with 1,635). Remember, Gesicki is only a sophomore! Gesicki can intimidate opposing players. His wingspan seems to cover the entire net. And he’s not only tall but energetic and enthusiastic, bouncing almost constantly, prone to fist pumps after a kill. At the beginning of the season, Maxwell said Gesicki was “on his way to being one of the most dominant players in the state.” Well, he’s arrived. In the first game against CBA on Friday, Gesicki got on a roll. With mustard! When Southern pulled away with an eight-point run to push the score to 22-11, Gesicki was at the center of the action, scoring five kills and two blocks. That’s dominant! Maxwell was impressed by the progress his middle blocker made between his freshman and sophomore years. Gesicki is a three-sport athlete, also excelling in football and basketball. So, unlike many of Maxwell’s players, he wasn’t honing his volleyball skill all year round in club competition. Yet he still improved his game tremendously. “He’s such a tremendous athlete,” said Maxwell. “I was concerned how long it would take him to get into ‘volleyball shape’ but he’s so coachable, so intelligent, it didn’t take him long.” If opponents can somehow get a ball over or around Gesicki, their problems are yet far from over. Libero Annarumma had 687 digs when he arrived at the Southern gym on Friday and he added a dozen more in the final match. That’s good enough for second place all-time in Southern history. It shows this writer’s age, but Gesicki and Annarumma are a reallife Mutt and Jeff duo, if ever there was one. Recall, Gesicki is 6-6, 205. Annarumma is 5-5, 120. The pair,
DARE Grads Privy to Spectacles Galore at Stafford Intermediate High-Flying, Fast-Action Fun though, is no laughing matter to opponents. This team is just so deep. Wilk had nine kills in the tourney final and he went into action with 269 for the season. So Southern has a two-pronged attack. No, make that a four-pronged fork of an attack, considering Niccoli had 206 kills going into Friday’s action while Bayer had 162. Meanwhile, King had collected 767 assists for the campaign (he added 25 in the title match). The current all-time assist leader for Southern is Steve Vaughan, who totaled 1,534 in his career. King had 1,423 entering Friday’s action, so it appears he has a good shot of breaking Vaughan’s record this year with a strong state tournament run. And remember, like Gesicki, he’s an underclassman.
Hard Practices Are Essential This team is so talented that it is rather amazing it didn’t go undefeated. Maxwell, however, considered the loss to St. Joseph a rather good thing. “We’ve been down that road before,” he said of carrying a perfect record late into the season, “and the pressure mounts.” Better, he said, for a team to suffer a regular season defeat and get that monkey off its back and concentrate once again on the real goal: another state championship. This squad will have to win that title to convince the veteran coach it was his best team ever. The proof, after all, is in the pudding. He did agree with this writer, however, that his 2012 team is the deepest he’s ever coached.
“We’re solid at every spot,” he conceded. “I don’t think we have any weaknesses, at least any glaring weaknesses. And we’re deep, which makes our practices so intense, more intense than some of our matches. I couldn’t ask for a more rounded team.” Those practice sessions will be especially important in the coming weeks. Between upcoming graduations, proms, and the long Memorial Day weekend stretching out the NJSIAA tournament, coaches across the state will be hard pressed to keep their players focused. Southern will play its first match, between the winner of Washington Township and Cherry Hill West (the eighth and ninth seeds in the South Jersey bracket) on Thursday. The Rams won’t play again until May 30, when their likely

opponent, if the seeds hold, will be the bracket’s fourth seed, Cherry Hill East, ranked 19th in the state. Indeed, Southern probably won’t be tested until the South Jersey title match on June 1, when Maxwell and Co. will likely face the bracket’s second seed, Eastern, ranked sixth statewide. The state semifinals, where the survivors of the Central and the two North Jersey brackets will join in the fun, are scheduled for June 5. The championship match is set for June 7. That’s a long time to wait for a team that even Harold Camping, the radio broadcaster famous – or infamous – for predicting Judgment Day on May 21, 2011 (once two prior predictions failed), could have predicted would be fighting it out for its third state title.

PICTURE THIS: Lighthouse there, lighthouse here; nearly identical latitudes on the globe, Long Beach Island and Menorca share similarities, yet the differences are big enough to foster fascinating exchanges.
LBI Has a ‘Sister Island,’ Menorca, Spain; Cultural Exchange Program Announced
L
ong Beach Island has a sister, and she is beautiful. A “sister island cultural exchange” has been launched between LBI and Menorca, Spain. The announcement was made on the Mediterranean island Thursday and made a splash in the news media there. The idea behind the project is to showcase and generate publicity for both destinations, and facilitate a cultural exchange, said Janet Greco, a former Long Beach Island resident and an artist now living on Menorca. She co-founded a website, www.IslandAdvisor.com, that supports the cultural exchange aspect and also provides a platform for businesses to participate in the marketing of the locations. The Southern Ocean County Chamber of Commerce organized the official “sister” relationship with the Town Hall of Ciutadella de Menorca in association with Island Advisor. “The principal objective of the new cultural and commerce partnership is to learn and share experiences, to raise the profile of, and promote both destinations widely,” said Lori Pepenella, destination marketing director for the chamber. “Twinning relationships typically take place between locations that share cultural and historic links, but they can also develop where the different cultures and backgrounds may be quite diverse. In the case of Menorca and Long Beach Island, the two islands share nearly identical latitudes on the globe and a number of economic, touristic and environmental challenges.” Menorca is 139 miles southeast of Barcelona, the nearest large city. The island is just 32 miles wide and 9 miles from north to south. Its main cities are Mahon (the capital) and Ciutadella de Menorca. There are eight municipal districts. and the island has a population of around 94,000, a figure that increases significantly during the summer tourism season. The languages are Catalan, Spanish (Castellano) and some English.
The sister island project started in August 2011, after conversations between Greco and LBI business owner Dick Jeffries, who expressed interest in developing the idea, said Greco. The formal project was initiated by Pepenella. After months of planning, the new Island Advisor website was designed in Spain with Lluc Pellejá, CEO of Extens Solucions SL, an IT firm headquartered on Menorca. “We are very excited about this and look forward to getting to know our new friends in Menorca,” said Pepenella. “We look forward to working with Janet and Lluc to make the project a sustained success and hope that local businesses will take advantage of the opportunity offered to fully showcase what each island has to offer on the website.” The new website is the hub of the Sister Islands project. It also functions as a stand-alone guide for the promotion of island businesses and events. The website enables direct entry of business and event listings, which are free. Prompts on the site are easy to follow. There are some paidfor featured listings and advertising options as well. “If anyone has an idea for a project between nonprofits or special-interest groups, we would love to hear from you,” said Greco. “We have already put elementary school teachers in direct contact for a schools exchange. We will do one for artists and crafters, and we are in the first stages of facilitating introductions between the churches of both islands. We would also like to invite businesses and nonprofits to enter their free business and event listings so we can create a really comprehensive guide for all visitors.” The mayor of Cuitadella de Menorca welcomes the exchange. Mayor José Maria de Sintas Zaforteza said, “We are delighted that one of our residents has initiated such a project, which offers a valuable opportunity for Menorca to learn from our new friends on Long Beach Island. It also provides an international marketing
window to promote our locations more broadly beyond our own shores.” Pepenella said the first project to be launched is the Menorca & LBI Sister Islands School Project. “The goal will be for the children to exchange information about each island’s customs and culture via letters, photos and art. A focus will be to enhance communication between the two groups by practicing Spanish and English letter writing,” Pepenella said. Elaborating on future aspects of the collaboration, Pepenella told The SandPaper this week, “We have St. Francis Parish connected with a parish in Ciutadella de Menorca. Ocean Professional Theatre is doing a summer production of ‘Man of La Mancha,’ and we will try to tie that in as well, as it was presented to the Ocean County Culture and Heritage Commission for consideration for October’s Hispanic Heritage programming. Also, Deb Whitcraft from the N.J. maritime museum and I are discussing Spanish shipwrecks off our coast and how that can be included. We have an article in our Escape Guide about the exchange and have begun adding a line about it in our advertising. The chamber has a link on our web site, http:// www.visitlbiregion.com/visitors/ cultural-exchange/ .” Menorca is accessible by flights and ferry boat from Barcelona, and via flights from Madrid and London to the main airport in Mahon. If you like what you see in the breathtaking photographs, Island Advisor has an integrated reservation booking system made possible by ASHOME, the Menorca Hotel Association. In this way, anyone interested in travel to Menorca can check prices and availability for more than 200 hotels on Menorca. The site also has an Island Concierge service to help with bookings, advice and information about visiting both islands. — Maria Scandale mariascandale@thesandpaper.net

Sand, Sea, Sunrise Online
LBI Beach Report: Local’s Groovy Way To Ignite Each Day C aught on camera: The beach at dawn, peaceful, sparsely populated, a brilliant sun rising or clouds hanging over the ocean or rain falling. Add upbeat commentary – a hearty “good morning,” weather and surf conditions, a call to get outside – and some tunes, and the result is local Jack Bushko’s Long Beach Island beach report. “Jack’s Daily Beach Report,” as he titles the project on the website he and friend Zach Kerzner designed, lbieventz.com, offers a virtual glimpse of sand and sea each morning, with narration detailing the air and ocean temperature, wind direction and speed, predicted weather, sunrise and sunset times, tides and surf. Bushko, 55, rises before 5:30 a.m. in his home in Surf City most mornings, grabs his camera equipment – “the oldest equipment,” he said, laughing – stops for coffee, then films from a beach entrance at this street or that. After editing, which includes mixing in some melodies, often that of a local musician, he posts the reports on his website, and his Facebook page, before many people have even rolled out of bed. He doesn’t always feel like getting up before the sun, but said it’s worth it. “The cool thing about it is when you get up that early, there’s a lot going on,” but very unlike later in the day. “It’s pretty inspiring. It’s a totally different world.”
One morning, he spotted a big bull seal near the water’s edge around Ninth Street in Surf City. Filming directly after Hurricane Irene swept through last August was also memorable. “I brought my girlfriend, Anna, in from Philadelphia right before the storm,” and while she was scared to be on the Island during the hurricane, when they went up to the beach the morning after, “she was in awe.” The reports all begin with a “Gooood Morning, LBI!” inspired by the Robin Williams film “Good Morning Vietnam,” said Bushko, and end with a refrain that encourages viewers to get their toes in the sand and “stay above the weather,” a motto he borrows from the sailors at the Haven Beach and Brant Beach yacht clubs. In the span of the video’s minute or two, he might also point out a local event – last weekend’s wine festival, the Simply Bassing fishing tournament – or mention a holiday. “Saturday is Armed Forces Day,” he said on Friday. “I’ll hit that angle tomorrow morning.” Angela Contillo Andersen of North Beach Haven, the recycling coordinator for Long Beach Township and a friend of Bushko’s, watches his morning reports on Facebook. “The sunrises themselves are dynamic and breathtaking, but Jack has a way of adding depth to it with ‘mood music’ Continued on Page 56

Lavish Salon Greets In Relaxed Style With Open House Labrador Store New Haven Beach Address
T
his week’s column focuses on two established businesses that have moved to new locations not far from their former addresses on Long Beach Island: Lavish Salon and The Labrador Store and More. Lavish celebrated with a festive grand opening last Saturday, May 19 at 115 South Bay Avenue, Beach Haven. Customers, friends and other well-wishers mingled all afternoon, and many took part in complimentary demonstrations. The event was catered by The Maine Course of North Beach Haven. For owner Brittany Romano, the new location opened in March is a bright and positive new chapter. As most customers know, the previous shop was damaged on July 31 in an electrical fire that started in an upstairs apartment of the building Lavish was renting. That was a setback, but the new, larger space, located in the former site of Dave’s Appliances, allowed room for expanding services to include manicures and pedicures. The Facebook page’s welcome describes Lavish well: “A unique and intimate salon featuring a blend of cutting edge techniques, exclusive hair and color design, exceptional customer service, trend-setting stylists and meticulous attention to detail.” “We look forward to making you feel comfortable that your hair is in our hands,” the Facebook invitation adds. This spring marks the three-year anniversary of Romano’s ownership. By the way, the popular salon has 1,427 Facebook friends and a client data base of about 2,000. Yet, the atmosphere is “very one-on-one.” Romano calls it “a very easygoing, no drama-type of atmosphere.” “When we started over there,” she said, of the old location about a block away, “it was small; it was very warm, and like home. Now, over here, it may look larger, but it’s still very one-on-one, very comfortable, cozy, intimate. “We keep it very low-pressure, too – some people like to try a different stylist, for example. We’re all very no-drama, easygoing – we just want people to be happy.” From Staten Island, Romano has lived in Southern Ocean County for five years, and is at home in Ocean Acres. After the fire, Romano had to make a decision: “walk away … or rebuild and come back stronger,” she said. “From the support that I got from my clients, family, friends, the community – this is the right thing,” she reflected last week. “Their feedback gave me that motivation and determination.” Along with a full complement of hair and nail services and extras, such as makeup application or Brazilian
keratin treatment, Lavish books bridal parties for services on the wedding day. Gift certificates are also available. The phone number for the salon is 609-492-9955. The website is www. lavishlbi.com. * * * The Labrador Store and More Is a Dog Owner’s Best Friend In her eighth season in business on Long Beach Island, Leanne Wuest has relocated The Labrador Store and More to a scenic and convenient location at 11106 Long Beach Blvd., Haven Beach, across from the shops at Sink ’r Swim. “This is bigger; I actually outgrew the other store. It’s a good location. I’m very happy to be here,” she said one recent day as she was stocking the shop with a vast variety – not just for labs. Buoy, her black lab, wagged a welcome. “I just went to a pet trade show and put in about 20 orders of merchandise. By Memorial weekend, my store will be full,” she said, as it looked quite full already. “I try to implement my ideas, so you’re not going to see this stuff in other stores; I’m very unique,” she
“And he likes to roll in dead birds on the beach – I hate when he does that.” said. “It’s The Labrador Store and More – I do a lot of Labrador stuff, but I carry over a hundred dog breeds – Labradoodle, goldendoodle, cockapoo. Some people come in and say, ‘You’re not going to have my breed,’ and I’m like, ‘Well, what is it?’ ” It was a Nova Scotia duck toller, and she had it. A gift shop for pets and for pet owners, the range of quality items runs from collars in 80 different styles, to clothing for babies and custom T-shirts for adults. Dog dishes, dog toys, dog art, dog necklaces, coffee table books, health-conscious care products and treats, premium dog food, and carrying cases are some general categories. What they have in common is that almost all are American-made. “I would say that 80 percent of the merchandise is made in the USA – I’m very conscious of that,” Wuest stated. “I don’t sell anything I don’t believe in.” “My dog treats are 90 percent American-made. It’s a big issue right now; a lot of the customers are wanting American-made things. I also have organic, all natural items.” Gluten-free food products are a relatively new item on the market that eliminate certain health problems. “A

The salon has been relocated since March at 115 South Bay Ave., Beach Haven, but May 19 was the grand opening. lot of dogs have allergies. Now they’re making a lot of products without gluten.” One indicator of a food allergy is when the pet starts scratching a lot, she said, or chewing on itself. The problem can be an allergy to the dog food or the dog treat. A seashore theme is another specialty of this LBI shop. Dog biscuits in a lobster shape are fun for everyone, and make entertaining gifts, too. Many of the dog toys are aquatic themed. Other products are custom-made for the store. Local artist Lisa Ball created pottery dog bowls that are painted in a design of nautical flags that cleverly spell out “LBI DOG.” “This is my idea,” Wuest introduced, pointing to the wall to the right of the entryway. “Picture frame. Every time a customer comes in, I ask them what kind of dog they have, and I always ask them, ‘What’s your dog’s name?’ I actually know the top 100 dog names. These big 50 frames are the top 50 dog names and on the little frames, I have 178 dog names. And I do custom ones; they take about a week to come in.” Labs are the most popular dog breed statistically, and there are so many products for labs, a store could be filled for just that breed, Wuest says. But everybody loves their particular breed. “I’m partial to Labradors, but I love all dogs. That’s why I carry so many breeds.” Loving your dog means loving what they do, and that’s where the grooming wipes come in handy. “These are great,” pointed out Wuest. “Buoy, he loves to roll in goose poop. When you don’t have time to give him a bath, you just grab the wipes. And he likes to roll in dead birds on the beach – I hate when he does that.” She also has a small corner of the shop dedicated to horses. There are art prints, books and a pair of riding boots, among other merchandise. “That was my first love, horses. I grew up in South Jersey but have lived all over the United States – Arizona, Texas, Florida, Louisiana. When I was in Louisiana during my senior year of high school, I was trying to be a jockey.” Today she’s in the store at least

She’s definitely there on weekends from 11 a.m.-5 p.m., “and when the season comes into play, I’m open
seven days a week from 10 to nine, and Sundays from 10 to 7.” “I’m very proud of it,” she said of the store. “Hopefully it’ll get bigger and better.” Y

Ocean Drilling Continued from Page 20
along the coast from Delaware to Florida for exploration by 11 independent seismic testing companies. These companies could then sell the results of their testing, indicating where oil and natural gas deposits may exist, to energy companies. They could also sell the information to offshore wind farms or to government agencies looking for sand and gravel for beach nourishment. The testing is needed, say the companies, because the last exploration was 30 years ago and done without benefi t of newer technology. The draft environmental impact study (draft because it could be changed after the series of public hearings) resulted in a choice of three directions or alternatives for the bureau to take to protect marine mammals. Seismic surveys are typically done from a ship that trails an array of 20 or more air guns that continuously blast sound waves that penetrate the sea floor and bounce back to the hydrophone receivers. The results are analyzed for deposits of natural gas, oil, sand and gravel. The ship covers 300 square kilometers with each pass and does sweeps of an area to get a continuous read of the sea floor. The industry acknowledges that the testing could be harmful to marine mammals. The plan preferred by the bureau, Alternative A, would allow the testing, but close areas of the ocean to air gun testing for 20 nautical miles during northern right whale migrations. It would also require boats to clear the area of marine mammals for 20 to 45 minutes before beginning the testing and to shut down operations as soon as a marine mammal enters the testing zone. Spotters would look for marine mammals. Alternative B would be the same with the addition of closing an area in Central Florida during sea turtle nesting. It would also require a separation zone between simultaneous seismic surveys and require passive acoustic monitoring, which is less invasive. Alternative C would deny the requests to conduct seismic testing. Conservationists all called for the bureau to adopt Alternative C. There are 38 species of marine mammals in the proposed testing areas including 34 cetacean species. Seven of the marine mammal species are endangered species, including five baleen whales: the North Atlantic right whale, blue whale, fin whale, sei whale, humpback whale, one toothed whale (sperm whale) and the manatee. The Marine Mammal Protection Act prohibits, with certain exceptions, the “take” of marine mammals in U.S. waters and by U.S. citizens on the high seas. The term “take,” as defined in the act, means to harass, hunt, capture or kill any marine mammal or to attempt such activity. The act defines harassment as any act of pursuit, torment or annoyance that has the potential to injure a marine mammal or marine mammal stock in the wild (Level A harassment) or disturb a marine mammal or marine mammal stock in the wild by causing disruption of behavioral patterns, including, but not limited to, migration, breathing, nursing, breeding, feeding or sheltering (Level B harassment). The environmental Impact study done by the Interior Department proposes the following “takes” could result from airgun seismic surveys: up to 38,637 marine mammals per year, up to 138,612 marine mammals over the eight years of testing; up to 35 baleen whales a year; up to 38,602 toothed whales, dolphins and porpoises a year; and up to two North Atlantic right whales a year or 10 over an eight-year period. The five species with the highest numbers of annual Level A takes are estimated to be bottlenose dolphins, up to 11,748 individuals/year; short-beaked common dolphin, up to 6,147 individuals/ year; Atlantic spotted dolphin, up to 5,848 individuals/year; short-finned pilot whale, up to 4,631 individuals/year; and striped dolphin,
Ocean Defenders Plan ‘Shore Tour’ To Rally Public
D
uring the height of the tourist season, a coalition of more than 130 organizations, “Ocean Defenders,” will journey from Cape May to Montauk, N.Y., urging beach lovers to “Get in Motion for the Ocean” and educating the public about their New Jersey/New York Clean Ocean Action Initiative. The 15-day “Tour for the Shore” campaign from Aug. 10 to Aug. 24 will take place on land and by sea, with rallies everywhere in between. Facing threats from ocean blasting for oil and gas development, pollution and what they see as reckless development, the coalition is composed of concerned citizens along the New York and New Jersey coastlines hoping to prohibit harmful pollution and industrial activities off the coast, while locking-in permanent protection for future generations. The ultimate goal is for a citizen-drafted federal law to protect the region from Cape May to Montauk as a Clean Ocean Zone. The law would prohibit ocean dumpsites, new wastewater outfalls and industrialization such as strip mining, oil and gas drilling and development and construction of non-renewable energy facilities like fossil fuel energy ports. The Clean Ocean Zone would support artificial reefs, beach replenishment, recreation and commercial fishing, responsible development of renewable energy and all clean ocean activities. As part of “Get in Motion for the Ocean,” ocean advocate and paddling enthusiast Margo Pellegrino will travel the shoreline in an outrigger canoe. Clean Ocean Action’s Coastal Policy Attorney Sean Dixon will hit the pavement on a road bicycle. Surfers, paddlers, cyclists and ocean enthusiasts of all experience levels will be invited to join Pellegrino and Dixon at any time during the Tour for the Shore. During a press conference on Tuesday, representatives from Alliance for a Living Ocean, ReClam the Bay, the Garden Club of Long Beach Island and the LBI Foundation of the Arts and Sciences all pledged their volunteers to help in the effort. Rallies, action tables and beach teams will be held along the way in every coastal district and elected leaders will be urged to participate and support the initiative. The public can view the progress of the campaign on the cleanoceanzone.org website. Until then, information on the tour can be found at cleanoceanaction.org or call 732-872-0111. — Pat Johnson patjohnson@thesandpaper.net
up to 3,993 individuals/year. Level B “takes” from airgun seismic surveys are higher: up to 3,787,043 marine mammals per year or 13,586,251 marine mammals over eight years, including up to 3,690 baleen whales a year, up to 3,783,353 toothed whales, dolphins and porpoises a year, up to 476 North Atlantic right whales a year, up to 1,817 over an eight-year period, with 300 to 400 in the western Atlantic population. The bureau has until the end of the year to make its decision on the request to open the Atlantic to seismic testing. It will take public comment through May 30. People can submit opinions on the proposal by e-mailing them to GGEIS@boem.gov or by sending them by mail to Gary D.
