COURT THREATS SURROUND JOHNSON LANE ZONING ISSUE
–Photos by Jennifer Peacock The wood gate that divides Johnson Lane. At right, Johnson Lane resident Jim Rapp addresses Council about his concerns about three limited commercial lots near his home. By Jennifer Peacock JACKSON – One resident has demanded immediate action to change a zone from limited commercial back to residential, suggesting some residents on Johnson Lane were ready to file a lawsuit to make it happen. Johnson Lane resident Jim Rapp has approached Council three consecutive
meetings about the zoning on the lane. Council had agreed to set up a meeting with residents to discuss the zoning; however, when asked about such a meeting Council President Robert Nixon said it would not fall under the definition of an open public meeting. “Well that’s why I came here. I want everything above board. Because we’re going
Amid Warnings, Locals Leveling Up With Pokémon Go
By Shawn Smith OCEAN COUNTY – Around midnight, the streets which are usually quiet are bustling with teens and young adults staring at their phones. Suddenly, someone cries out, “There’s a Ninetails over by Wells Fargo!” The mass of trainers rush around the corner and out of sight, except for a few who have brought lawn chairs and set themselves up in front of the Toms River Fire Department
on Robbins Street. Chances are that even if you live under a rock, you’ve heard of the newest Pokémon game (because people have probably lifted the rock looking for one of the digital creatures). Pokémon Go is the newest craze, and within the short amount of time since its release just earlier this month, it has threatened to overtake Twitter with its (Pokémon - See Page 12)

On the advice of legal counsel Jean Cipriani, Council declined to publicly discuss the issue further, though Rapp, who spoke for 40 minutes, continued his comments another 20 minutes before the meeting was (Johnson - See Page 5)

Funeral Home Decision Appealed
By Jennifer Peacock JACKSON – Though they lost the first time, a Jackson couple plans to fight in appellate court against a funeral home being built nearby. Attorney Edward Liston spoke to The Jackson Times about his clients’ appeal in response to Ocean County Superior Court Judge Robert E. Brenner’s decision to allow a funeral home and banquet hall to be built at Cooks Bridge Road and Manhattan Street between two adult communities, Winding Ways and Westlake. Liston is representing Richard and Terri Barnaskas, Seminole Court in Westlake. Liston said they recently got a scheduling order from the appellate division and will filing briefs by the end of August. He does not yet have the names of the three judge panel who will hear the case. The Barnaskases filed a complaint in lieu of prerogative writs which said the Zoning Board’s May 2015 approval of the plan was “arbitrary, capricious, and unreasonable;” “unlawful and against the weight of evidence;” and “not in accordance with the appropriate ordinances of the Township of Jackson and statutory requirements/ case law.” MIB Properties LLC was cleared by Brenner in April to build its proposed 19,771 square foot, two-story funeral home and banquet hall—the first of its kind in New (Appeal - See Page 5)
Jackson Observes Silence To Remember Police Shooting
By Jennifer Peacock JACKSON – A moment of silence, and loads of support plus items of thanks, were some more local examples of a community rallying around its police force amid the deadly shootings of police in Dallas and Baton Rouge. “I would ask that you keep in your thoughts and your prayers the families and the memories of the Dallas Police Officers

Ocean County Fair Wows All Ages
By Catherine Galioto OCEAN COUNTY – The 69th Ocean County Fair welcomed visitors to the fairgrounds, Miller Airpark in Berkeley, in a five-day stretch that ended July 17. The festival included such draws as carnival rides, traditional and unique fair foods, and a bevy of prize animals such as rabbits, poultry, horses and goats from local 4-H clubs. Rounding out the fun were demonstrations by seeing eye dog trainers and an all-terrain vehicle club among others. Featured entertainment included live performances by The Amish Outlaws and other bands. For more information, visit oceancountyfair.com.

adjourned. Council Vice President Kenneth Bressi, who also sits on the Planning Board, had agreed to meet with residents about their concerns. The zoning of three lots on Johnson Lane were changed from residential to limited commercial back in 2011; Bressi said those lots are contiguous to other limited commercial lots with Pinelands located within it. He personally called each resident who expressed wishes to discuss the matter, but as of the July 12 had not heard back from anyone. After Jim Rapp’s declaration that the matter would end up in court, Bressi said he would not meet with residents at a private meeting. Under Jackson code, limited commercial zones can include medical or professional offices; continuing care, assisted living, or rehabilitation facilities; stand-alone facilities such as day cares, preschools, churches, mini storage, funeral homes, art galleries, libraries, or museums; “single-family residences in existence prior to the adoption of this section (November 9, 2010) subject to the R-1 Residential District regulations; municipal parks, playgrounds and other such municipal buildings and uses as are deemed appropriate and necessary by the Township; and federal, state, county and other public buildings and grounds, including public schools, parks, playgrounds or other public recreational uses or areas.” “I moved from up north… It’s a very congested area, a lot of traffic. I moved here for my children’s sake, because I want to live in a place that is peaceful, even if I have to work very hard to
The Jackson Times, July 23, 2016, Page 5 stay there,” Johnson Lane resident Solomon Kusimo said June 14, who only recently heard about the limited commercial zone. “Wait a minute, what we ran away from over there to get some peace in another area, now we’re almost in the same predicament.” Several other Johnson Lane residents have expressed their concerns about commercial properties being built on those lots. Most residents who spoke did not know about the zoning changes until some neighbors have tried to sell their properties, were told they were in a commercial and not residential zone. Rapp said the zoning changes have “destabilized” the neighborhood. “It’s been very devastating to our lives. It’s hard to function every day to know that your dream home, your life is going to change, and what do you do about it? I can do nothing but be stressed,” Janice Rapp said at the June 14 meeting. “Please understand that this is very stressful and very hard to deal with and very important to us all. Johnson Lane is a very special place.” Off Frank Applegate Road is the wide, paved portion of Johnson Lane, lined with residential homes with manicured lawns, that ends in a cul-de-sac. A wooden gate at the cul-de-sac can open to another portion of Johnson Lane. This lane is a sand-and-pebble, one-lane path that, while having a few homes on it, retains a rural feel and is off Bennetts Mills Road. According to public records provided by Cipriani to The Jackson Times, notices about different facets of updating the township’s Master Plan were published in The Asbury Park Press seven times between March 14, 2008 and August 26, 2009. Public hearings were held and documents available for review during this
time. Council adopted the Master Plan through ordinance 02-11 February 8, 2011. The records show no residents spoke on the ordinance. Jackson followed the notification laws, Cipriani said. “Personal notice of zoning changes is not required. This protocol has remained unchanged since the adoption of the Municipal Land Use Law in 1975.” Under MLUL, municipalities have their planning boards prepare and tentatively approve the master plan, then set a date for the public hearing on that plan. Notice of that hearing is published in a general circulation newspaper 10 days before the hearing, as well as the clerks of adjoining municipalities and the county planning board by personal service or certified mail. Maps and documentation are available for public inspection 10 days before that hearing. At the hearing, the plan is explained and public comments made. If amendments are required, a date is set and notice is given. No further notice is required if no amendments are made and the hearing adjourned. When adopted, a notice is printed in a newspaper and sent to the county planning board. Townships must update their master plans every 10 years. Jackson will be reopening the master plan subcommittee in 2017. The MLUL, which became effective in 1976, encourages “municipal action to guide the appropriate use or development of all lands in this State, in a manner which will promote the public health, safety, morals, and general welfare.” Open space, renewable energy, transportation, conservation, and aesthetics should be considered, among other things, when determining the zoning within the municipalities.

Jersey, which would also include office space, rental offices, an apartment, and a banquet hall used for repasts only—on 6.06 acres. Funeral homes are not a permitted use in the lot’s Planned Retirement Community Zone; variances were sought and granted, with the Zoning Board approved the application. The applicant, Geraldine Oliverie, manages and owns Oliverie Funeral Home in Manchester along with her husband Michael Hennicke. They are represented by attorney Robert Shea. “We’ll go through some case management matters and briefing schedules set up and we’re hoping by the end of this year we should have ideas of when the matter will be heard in the appellate division,” Shea told The Jackson Times. “I’m very confident that the opinion of Judge Brenner was very well thought out, and we have to go through the process, we’re very confident we’re going to be successful on the appeal.” Attorney Sean Gertner represented the Board during the trial. He told The Jackson Times back in June: “The Zoning Board itself followed the rule of law in making the determination to grant certain variances and ultimate approval.”

Featured Letter Task Force Against Elder Abuse Needed Thank you Governor Christie and members of the legislature for signing Bill #S157 to create the New Jersey Task Force on Abuse Against the Elderly and Disabled. The impact of abusive practices is financially and emotionally devastating to our loved ones who are victimized. There is also a tremendous burden on the judicial and social services systems to rectify the injustices from such crimes although vast numbers of such crimes go unprosecuted. AARP concurs that the resources and experiences of a multi-disciplinary task force could develop policy proposals to save lives and livelihoods. Bipartisan policy-making task forces are a proven strategy for the successful development of useful laws and regulations. For example, this approach was successful in initiatives related to developing effective leg-
islation regarding powers of attorney and guardianship jurisdiction. Unbiased, informed stakeholders provide valuable insights that can produce realistic, actionable policy proposals. This new law provides an opportunity to develop the measures we need; to strengthen the investigation and enforcement capabilities of the Office of Adult Protective Services; to alert financial institutions’ investigative agencies; to shine a light on potential instances of abuse and neglect based on warning signs; and to develop stricter safeguards that prevent family members and caretakers from exploiting elders. AARP New Jersey looks forward to participating in this task force. We are confident that the results will improve the lives of New Jersey senior and their families. Dave Mollen State President AARP New Jersey

Letters To The Editor Political Signs Allowed The New Jersey Supreme Court invalidated Homeowners’ Association’s ban on political signs. These signs are allowed in adult communities. Our ability to choose how we responsibly express our views is important, particularly in this divisive election season.

Brexit Thoughts Who’d have thought, we’d find England voting on its independence from the European Union. Just think, a few hundred years ago, America became its own country by separating itself from what country - why England of course! Yes, there will be economic down’s for a while; however, upon reflection, there will always be periods of unsettled financial times. A big decline may loom in all of our financial futures but at the end of the day, we wish the Brits well in their decision. Think about it, this may be the beginning of other countries doing the very same thing. Many people are disheartened about how things are going for them in every way and thus a
disruptive world. Let’s get our priorities right folks and allow history to happen. May God bless us one and all. Bette Kooreman Whiting
What It Takes to Be an Effective Citizen It’s so easy in a presidential election year to forget that our system is not about a single person. This year especially, when the dynamics of the presidential contest have dominated news coverage so thoroughly, the crucial role that citizens play — apart from serving as voters in the presidential drama — isn’t even an afterthought. Yet effective citizenship is the base on which our representative democracy rests. I believe it’s made up of several elements. First, a confident belief that change is possible — that the country can indeed make progress over time thanks to the efforts both of ordinary people and of political leaders. Yes, we’ve got miles to go on many fronts, but on the whole, our system is working better for more people than it did a few decades ago. The people who helped make this happen understood two things: that progress was possible, and that it required their efforts. Those who were most effective had an impact because they had the skills to make a difference. I’m talking here about the fundamental ability we should all have as citizens to solve problems in a rep-

resentative democracy. This means knowing how to work together with all kinds of people, being able to find common ground, building consensus, and communicating ideas effectively. I use the word “skills,” but in the end, good citizenship is as much about temperament as it is about ability. Mutual respect, tolerance, empathy, civility, humility, honesty, resolve — these are the simple virtues that our nation depends on in its citizens. So is a willingness to step up to challenges. The people who make a difference in our system are the ones who not only identify a problem, but then plunge into fixing it. There’s a final quality that makes for effective citizenship, and it’s a tough one: mostly, we’re not going to solve our challenges in a single generation. So we have to educate our children and those who come after us in the skill sets I’ve been talking about. That’s because all of us — you, me, and our fellow citizens — are responsible for the future of our neighborhoods and our nation. Unless we all shoulder the obligation to learn the skills we need to shepherd it into the future, and then teach those skills to others, our country and our system will struggle.

Keep SSN Private Many small-minded people who work inside of New Jersey’s K-12 education system mislead parents of children registering for school, by claiming that they are required documents to register a child in school. State law says a school district is required to register any student of school age who says they live within the district. Even if the child and parent lack any form of ID or other official documentation, the child still must be registered and allowed to attend school. Districts must admit the student and then the parent may
provide whatever documents they can get together. It is the “totality” of those documents that can prove residency. For example, a birth certificate and a piece of mail would more than be sufficient ID under the law. To protect your child from identity theft, you should never provide a social security number to a school district or your driver’s license. They have no legitimate use for this information. A K-12 school is not the IRS, an employer, or a bank. How dare they demand a SSN? Eric Hafner Toms River
Support Our Relay For Life In this political election season, our Republican council candidates want us to believe that they really care about Jackson and its residents, and yet, not one of them bothered to show up at the opening ceremonies for Relay for Life to show support for such a worthwhile cause. Funny how they show up at Great Adventure for Susan G. Komen. They read a proclamation to Paint the Town Purple, yet not one purple ribbon was ever put up in town. What kind of message does that send to the extremely hard-working Event Leadership Team for Relay? Not even the mayor showed up. It takes hundreds of hours, countless phone calls and emails, dedication, and hard work to put it all together, not to mention we’re all volunteers. The candidates want us to believe they’re behind and proud of Jackson volunteers, yet they do nothing to get behind Relay for Life. Something’s not right with that. I for one, am very much disappointed in all of them. I challenge all of them to step up and get behind our 2017 Relay for Life. Actions do speak louder than words. Show us you care about all volunteer endeavors in town. Stephanie Brown Relay for Life Fundraising Chair Jackson

SPOTLIGHT ON GOVERNMENT Correspondence & Commentary From Your Local, County, State & Federal Officials
From The Desk Of The Ocean County Freeholders Freeholders: SHIP Funding Cannot Be Eliminated
OCEAN COUNTY – Seniors navigating the often complicated maze of obtaining the proper health insurance information have always been able to get help from State Health Insurance Program (SHIP) counselors who assist them in making informed decisions when it comes to Medicare issues. “This is a very important program to the seniors living in Ocean County, but it could be in jeopardy as the federal government talks about completely eliminating its funding,” said Ocean County Freeholder Joseph H. Vicari, who serves as chairman of Senior Services. “This would have devastating consequences for Medicare beneficiaries and their families.”
As of August 31, Ocean County had 143,112 people eligible for Medicare, which represents 10 percent of New Jersey’s Medicare population. “Those calling 1-800-Medicare are often referred to SHIP for more detailed, personalized assistance, especially for help in resolving complicated problems with enrollments or appeals,” Vicari said. “SHIP has operated in New Jersey for 29 years.” State Health Insurance Program known as SHIP is designed to assist Medicare enrollees, potential enrollees and their caregivers with their questions regarding Part A, B, C and D benefits/claims and supplemental policies.
Questions related to Medicare are one of the most frequent calls to the Senior Services office and for its outreach sites located throughout the county. “The Ocean Area Agency on Aging or AAA leads New Jersey in SHIP consumer activity with 40 certified counselors located throughout the county who had 11,467 client contacts in the last fiscal year,” Vicari said. “These counselors provide important assistance to our seniors and their families, without them the elderly in Ocean County would have to make difficult decisions regarding their health insurance without the guidance of someone who works with this topic every day.”
Vicari noted that during the fall of each year, the Medicare Part D (prescription coverage) enrollment period is the busiest time of year for the Ocean County Office of Senior Services. “Senior Services partners with the County Connection at the Ocean County Mall to reach as many individuals as possible,” Vicari said. “The Part D days as they are called are always full and we are able to help many seniors with the assistance of SHIP counselors. This is a very important function and should continue to be funded by the federal government.” Ocean County has the second highest number of Medicare beneficiaries in the state and of these beneficiaries, 20,900 or 14.5
percent are under the age of 65. A review of last year’s activity shows that more than 38 percent of client contacts were by phone, 43 percent were in office and a significant 14.9 percent of client contacts were directly in the client’s home by outreach workers. Over 16 percent of those assisted by SHIP were over 85 years of age. “It’s important we tell Washington, D.C. not to eliminate the funding for this essential program for our seniors,” Vicari said. “Ocean County is home to the largest number of seniors in the state, and this would be harmful to so many of them.” Vicari urged seniors and their family members to
contact their representatives in Congress to stop the proposed elimination of the SHIP program funding. “These funds have to be continued,” Vicari said. “We need to join with the National Council on Aging to tell our members of Congress to reject these proposed cuts and make needed investments in SHIP.” Last year, the Senate bill suggested cutting SHIP funding by nearly 42 percent, which Congress ultimately rejected after effective advocacy by AAAs and SHIP programs across the country. “We need to increase our efforts this year to ensure that SHIP funding is preserved in a final spending package,” Vicari said.
Housing Advocates: “Build A Thriving NJ” NEW JERSEY – On a mission to make New Jersey a better place to live, work and play, housing advocates launched a new initiative to promote greater investment in housing and community development. Over 150 advocates met at the State House as part of the Housing and Community Development Network of New Jersey’s (the Network) annual Legislative Day, to encourage current and future lawmakers to “Build a Thriving New Jersey.” “While other states have bounced back, NJ’s economy has languished after Sandy and the economic downturn,” said Staci Berger, president and chief executive officer of the Network. “We know that the next gov-

That’s why, today, we are launching our campaign to ‘Build a Thriving NJ,’ so that our current and future elected officials know that they have to do more to make NJ work for everyone.” The “Build a Thriving New Jersey” initiative aims to boost the state’s economy through investments that create more affordable homes, address homelessness prevention and services, revitalize neighborhoods, tackle foreclosures and eliminate childhood lead poisoning by promoting safe homes and schools.

Citing a recent national study that found New Jersey to be the fifth most expensive state to rent in the county, advocates met with legislators to urge action on proposals that make the investments outlined in “Building a Thriving New Jersey.” Advocates also called on New Jersey’s next governor commit to those investments. “The backbone of our economy are our friends, families, and neighbors who live and work here,” said Blair Schleicher Bravo, chief executive officer of Morris Habitat for Humanity and Network Board Chair. “If people cannot afford to live here, they’re not going to spend on the activities that stimulate our economy.

vestments that create more affordable homes, more jobs, and robust communities produce a high economic and social return.” “Housing is the foundation of a healthy, happy life that allows people to be productive citizens,” said Felicia Alston-Singleton, Newark housing advocate. “I came to Trenton today to tell our legislators to support bills that create opportunities so that people having a hard time financially, due to systemic barriers, can have a home
they can afford.” During Legislative Day, several Senate and Assembly members spoke to participants during issue-specific sessions about bills they have sponsored. In addition to speaking on her foreclosure mediation bill, Assemblywoman Mila Jasey (D-Essex/Mor ris) presented the Network with a resolution. “Whether it is lack of housing options, the continuing foreclosure crisis or concerns specific to those
who are economically disadvantaged or special needs residents, the Network is an invaluable resource in assisting those such as us who address these concerns in crafting policies and resolving difficult issues,” said Jasey. “Safe housing that people can afford is essential to all of our health, safety, quality of life and our sense of community. The Network stands on the front line and I am proud and privileged to stand with it,” said Assemblywoman Jasey.

number of daily users. It’s sent hundreds of locals out on walks to spots such as parks, businesses and other landmarks. And police and business owners are noticing the uptick in pedestrian traffic, at all hours. The game uses “augmented reality,” in which Google Maps overlays with the game map that players use, and geolocates like a GPS does. As users play, they have to move in the real world to move their character in the game. Places like parks, monuments and churches serve as locations in the game where trainers can get supplies, or battle their Pokémon. While the game’s popularity has exploded, issues surrounding it have also emerged, with national news reporting incidents from drivers getting into accidents while playing, to three women finding a dead body in a park. Townships such as Lacey have issued statements to the public, warning of the dangers of using a smart phone and disregarding your surroundings. The game also greets users with a warning to be aware of their surroundings while they play. “The Lacey Township Police Department is advising residents playing this game to please be alert at all times, and stay aware of their surroundings to avoid potential problems while playing the game,” according to the press release. “Additional safety tips include, not driving or utilizing a bicycle, skateboard, or other devices while interacting with the app as you won’t be able to do both safely. Furthermore, be cautious not to trespass on private property or areas you normally wouldn’t, if you weren’t playing the game.” Parents are not the only ones benefitting from the game getting their children out of the house, some local businesses are also seeing an increase of customers because of the locations of the “gyms” and “pokéstops” in the game. Some businesses, such as Quaker Steak and Lube in Brick actually are a pokéstop themselves, despite the actual stop being the NASCAR on the roof of the building, but the restaurant said it has not seen an increase of patrons after the game was released. “I don’t follow the Pokémon trend, so I don’t know if I just didn’t notice,” a manager who asked not to be named said on Monday. “I haven’t seen anything out of the ordinary.” Another local “hot spot” also reported that they have not seen a noticeable difference in patrons, despite the extreme popularity of the game. Tori Ben, mother of the owner of Uncle Doods Donuts, another business that has become a pokéstop, said the shop has not seen a noticeable difference in patrons, largely due to the hours of

men and women who are in the Armed Forces and wear a uniform in this country and in our community, I ask for a moment of silence,” Council President Robert Nixon said as he opened the public portion of Council’s July 12 meeting. DPD Senior Cpl. Lorne Ahrens, age 48; DPD Officer Michael Krol, 40; DPD Sgt. Michael Smith, 55; DART Officer Brent Thompson, 43; and DPD Officer Patrick Zamarripa, 32, were killed by sniper fire during a Black Lives Matter protest in Dallas. Ultimately, seven other officers and two civilians were also injured. The sniper was shot and injured, and later killed using a
the business. “We’ve had a few extra people, but the hours they are wandering around, we’re not open,” Ben said. “We close at 1 p.m., there’s been a lot of traffic after 1, and before we open [at 6:30 a.m.].” Police, the media and the game itself cannot stress enough that players always be aware of their surroundings, as Howell Police Chief Andrew Kudrick issued a message on the craze on the department’s Facebook page. “The latest Pokémon Go game has become widely popular amongst kids and adults (yes, adults). Although, the game in itself is harmless, the activity associated with it has raised credible concerns with police departments and the public,” Kudrick wrote. “Over the past few days, the Howell Police Department has received numerous calls reporting suspicious activity/persons throughout the township. This includes our former municipal building directly behind police headquarters. Officers have reported watching multiple cars pulling into closed businesses and persons walking along the shoulder of Route 9 while looking down at their phones.” The problem could be one of trespassing, he said. “Participants are trespassing on private property and are going into places they shouldn’t be. The activity associated with this game causes our officers to be distracted from their normal, legitimate patrol duties. More importantly, the potential for someone getting hurt or involved in a bad situation participating in this game is an almost certainty,” said the police chief. Ultimately, the call was for good judgment: “During this time of heightened awareness and security of our officers and government facilities along with the “see something, say something” campaign, participants must be responsible in participating in this game,” Kudrick said. “If you chose to participate, use good judgment. Don’t annoy the general public and the police. Stay off other people’s property and don’t engage in odd behavior that going to make people suspicious. Better yet, delete the game off your phones, head over to one of our local parks and play a good ‘ole game of kick ball.” At the Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, a statement was issued to military personnel about cellphone usage while in uniform, saying those trainers should wait until off duty before attempting to catch Pokémon. “For our community members playing near the installation -- there are several Pokémon hugging our security borders,” the Facebook post said. “Unfortunately, catching Pokémon is not an accepted answer when being detained by Security Forces.” As for that Ninetails? Turned out to be just another Pidgey. remote controlled bomb disposal robot, by Dallas Police. The Jackson Township Police Department also released a brief statement the day after the shootings, saying, “This morning our thoughts and prayers go out to the Dallas Police Department and Dallas Area Rapid Transit Police and also their friends and family members after five officers were murdered and six were seriously wounded in the line of duty last night.” Support continued into the following week, while in Baton Rouge the headlines showed another example of deadly violence against police there.

Dr. Isidore Kirsh Ph.D., F.A.A.A.
Does Hearing Really Effect My Golf Game? Golf Digest conducted two tests that prove hearing’s link to the golf links. Depicted below are a summary of the results: From 150 Yards In: 10 golfers with handicaps between 4 and 16 hit 18 balls each to a green 150 yards away with and without earmuffs: Without earmuffs, the group hit the green 67 percent of the time. With earmuffs, the group hit the green only 53 percent of the time. Judging Your Putts: 10 golfers with handicaps between 2 and 17 hit a variety of 48 putts with three identical putters, with and without earmuffs: Without earmuffs, golfers correctly guessed the putts’ outcome (long,
short, just right) 59 percent of the time. With earmuffs, players guessed correctly only 40 percent of the time. Arnold Palmer has been an active wearer of hearing aids for many years. Golf Digest interviewed Mr. Palmer about the benefits of wearing hearing aids when golfing. Mr. Palmer said, “Your eyes are key on the golf course but I can tell you that your ears are equally important to playing good golf.” Thus, if you’re an avid golfer suffering from hearing loss, you may want to have your hearing tested to determine whether hearing aids can be beneficial to you, in particular, helping your golf game and lowering your handicap.
Dr. Izzy and his staff are always available to answer most of your questions regarding your hearing health. His offices are in Toms River, Whiting, and Manahawkin. He can be reached at 732-818-3610 or via Web site at gardenstatehearing.com.

HERE’S TO YOUR HEALTH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
5 Lessons Learned From Seniors
By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
I used to work in nursing homes where mostly elderly people live, or those who are very sick or terminal. I had a special practitioner license and served as the consultant pharmacist of record for about 11 nursing homes across Florida. Part of my job was to write monthly medical orders to the physicians to discontinue prescribed medications and lower dosages all with one goal: Make the resident (the patient) feel their best. Some things stuck with me and now I will share: I learned not to assume. – Some old people smiled at me, and some cried a lot. You might assume the smiley ones had less depression and pain, while the crying folks were the sad, depressed ones. Never assume. The smiley people may just be pushing harder, and those who are crying may be in horrific pain (not depressed). Crying is sometimes the only way you can speak when your mouth can’t explain how desperate you are in your body. I learned to send “love” in the mail. – I noticed that people who had friends or family visit them during the week required less medicine (and lower doses) than those residents who spent every day alone. If you can’t be physically present, then mail something. I have often been miles apart from my children and elderly parents, but to this day I still send little gifts or cards in the mail reminding them that I love them even though we are far apart.
I learned respect and compassion. – The elderly have lost control of many things including their bladder function, their ability to walk, their home, car, their vision, their children and sometimes their mind. We need to remember that every time an old person is on our way, walking too slow, taking too long… you know once upon a time they were just like you. They had it all, they were happy, on top of the world and excited about tomorrow. People used to ask for their advice, now they are invisible. I always show respect and compassion. I learned to say yes. – Saying no to things is easy because there’s always tomorrow. Is there? After working in facilities and seeing some people (even young ones who were there due to accidents) I learned that life is short, you do not have forever. Stop waiting for a better time or 20 years will f ly by. Say yes and do it. Live your life before your life is lived. I lear ned how little things make people happy. – Like painting their nails in the activity room, giving them $5 to spend, or brushing their hair or holding their hand and telling them everything’s going to be alright (even on their deathbed as they were nearing their last breath). Show up with love in your heart and even if you’re just sitting there to keep them company, do it with full attention. Stay home if you can’t come to them with a happy heart. They feel you – don’t ask me how I know.

Dear Readers, Although most of the column is usually dedicated to advice, sometimes I run across material that I think is worth sharing. I loved the following helpful remedies. Burned Fingertips: Should you accidentally get a minor burn on your fingertips, simply hold your fingertip to your ear lobe. Place your thumb on the back of your ear and the burned fingertip on the front. It is supposed to work like magic. Motion Sickness: With all the travel plans coming up some people are bound to suffer episodes of motion sickness. This may sound nutty but try this: Pull out the skin in the middle of your inner wrist about one inch from
you r pal m. Keep pulling and pinching wh i le a lt e rnating wrists. You will be amazed at the results. Tension Headaches: Tense all the muscles in your face and neck, jaw, scalp and shoulders. Hold that “pose” for about 30 seconds. Then, suddenly relax completely, letting go of all the tension, and your headache will be gone along with it. Write to joel@preferredcares.com.

Inside The Law When Should I Change My Will?
Robert C. Shea Esq.
By: Robert C. Shea, Esq. & Marc S. Galella, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates
Previous articles reviewed the land use application submission and presentation process; this article will review what is required to be performed after an approval is obtained. The memorialized approval is placed in written form called a Resolution. Part of the Resolution outlines the Condition of Approval, which acts as a checklist of the items that must be submitted to zoning and engineering prior to obtaining construction permits. Satisfying those conditions is called Resolution Compliance. Once an applicant receives the Resolution of approval, the first requirement is to prepare and publish a Notice of Decision. This provides a general notice in the official newspaper as to the details of the approval received. Proof of this publication must be provided to the board secretary. Contained within the Resolution may also be requirements for various legal documents. Examples of these documents are: Lot Consolidation Deeds, which consolidate various lots owned by the applicant under one lot number; Cross-Access Agreements, which will allow neighboring businesses or residents to utilize a common driveway or parking area; and Easements, which earmark certain portions of the property for access by other agencies to maintain or service utility structures or equipment which may be on the property, or may identify portions of the property that are to be undeveloped to preserve the environment or ensure visibility at an intersection. Of course, this is not a comprehensive list, and what is required depends on the specific reliefs granted in the applicant’s approval. What is consistent throughout the
process is that these are legal documents requiring the attachment of Marc S. Galella Esq. legal descriptions and reduced plans, requiring review and approval of the Board professionals and, in some cases, the documents must be recorded with the County Clerk. Certainly, the preparation of these documents is best performed by a qualified land use attorney. Additionally, the Resolution may require plan revisions, payment of additional fees and escrows and approvals from outside agencies. Those agencies may be other local agencies, such as local sewerage, utility and municipal authorities; County agencies, such as Planning Board and Soil Conservation; and/or state agencies, such as NJDOT and NJDEP. Again, each applicant requires a combination of varying approvals. This office can coordinate the receipt of those approvals and prepare a final submission to the local land use board to successfully complete Resolution Compliance. Receiving Resolution Compliance approval will then allow the applicant to construct their proposed project. As can be seen from the information above, the perfection of a land use application approval before a Land Use Board requires an understanding of the MLUL and legal experience. The attorneys at the Law Office of R.C. Shea and Associates can assist to make this process stress free. Look for future articles on the Land Use Process which will review the components of a resolution and the post-approval compliance procedures.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of JuLY 23-July 29 By Jeraldine Saunders
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Scratch the itch. Your unbridled enthusiasms may lead you to achieve more than you thought possible. You can move forward with important plans without interference or blockages in the week to come. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Make a point to fulfill promises. You must stick to the rules where finances and bill paying is concerned. Your partners and companions might offer some highly imaginative and useful schemes this week. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Remain receptive and resilient. If you are willing to listen you will hear the truth and be made aware of falsehoods. This isn’t a good week to challenge half-truths but a time to gather useful knowledge and promises. CANCER (June 21-July 22): The clock is ticking. There is no time like the present to make your wishes known. Receive shrewd advice from a partner or join forces to put precious plans into motion. As the week unfolds you grow closer to a loved one. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Your creative ideas may be well worth pursuing. You may stretch outside your comfort zone to achieve public acclaim in the week ahead. Your closest companions, however, might be sticklers for maintaining the status quo. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Follow up on the hustle and bustle in your hedgerow. Much can be accomplished when you are in the mood to enthusiastically carry out plans. Precious moments of shared nostalgia are easy to express later this week.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): A little hard work never hurt anyone. Stick to your plans and ignore a temptation. A money making opportunity seems to be within your grasp this week, but you may be surprised by a sudden change of plan. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Actions speak louder than words. By being enthusiastic and upbeat you can charm others and make this week memorable. You shouldn’t count eggs before they hatch, but count on having plenty of them to count. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Key decisions are in your hands in the week to come. It is always best to do something that makes you happy so change your goals accordingly. The weight of one obligation will be lifted from your shoulders. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Bask in a blaze of someone’s warm regard. In the week ahead you will find a good time to make public appearances, to ask for small favors, or to happily lure a romantic partner into your enticing arms. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Your love life didn’t come with a user’s manual. You might wish that there was a blueprint or roadmap that could help you handle relationships. In the week ahead you can wisely choose a more rewarding direction. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Reassess important situations. A situation in the week ahead might illuminate ways in which you can improve a key relationship. Value the opinion of a devoted significant other who has your best interests at heart.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen Details, Details: The Little Secrets Of Cooking Skillet-Fried Chicken By Wolfgang Puck
In so many areas of life, you have probably heard some version of the saying that “little things can make a big difference.” That is certainly true in good cooking. You’d be surprised by the number of times guests in my restaurants ask me why a dish tastes so good. They ask, “What’s your secret?” Much of the time, the secrets amount to nothing more than paying attention to small details over and over throughout a recipe. And if you learn what those small details are yourself, and start caring about them in your own kitchen, your friends and family will rightly think you’re an excellent cook. You can see the results in even the simplest, most home-style recipes. And I’d like to offer you a perfect example in a version of a traditional summertime and year-round favorite: skillet-fried chicken. From start to finish, little things in this recipe add up to delicious results. Let’s start with the ingredients themselves. I like to use free-range organic chicken, which may cost a bit more but will taste so much better. Most good supermarket meat departments will cut up a whole chicken into serving pieces for you, or you can buy precut pieces in whatever combination of dark and white meat you prefer. Next, I season the pieces with salt and pepper and marinate them in buttermilk. The slightly acidic milk helps tenderize the meat and makes it juicier, while the simple act of seasoning first keeps the finished results from tasting bland. Speaking of seasonings, I also add them generously to the flour I use to coat the chicken, creating a really eye-opening flavor profile. A little rice flour added to the regular flour helps yield a crispier coating. Successful frying depends on maintaining a hot, steady temperature. That ensures the chicken browns up well, without turning greasy, in the same time it takes for the meat to cook through. I also add a sprig of rosemary to the oil during cooking, which contributes a delicious aroma. And then there’s one last secret. The moment frying is done, I heat up a little honey with a touch of cayenne and drizzle it over the chicken on the serving platter. That adds a wonderful touch of sweet-hot flavor to every bite. I also offer lemon wedges for guests who want some “zestiness” in their own portions. All these little “secrets” seem ordinary on their own. But put them all together and you get extraordinary results. Whether you serve the chicken hot from the skillet or pack it cold for a summertime picnic, everyone who eats it will declare you a genius in the kitchen.
CRISPY SKILLET-FRIED CHICKEN WITH A SPICY HONEY DRIZZLE Serves 4 1 whole organic chicken, 3 to 3 1/4 pounds (about 1.5 kg), cut into 8 large pieces for frying Kosher salt 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus extra for seasoning the chicken 3 cups (750 mL) buttermilk Peanut oil for frying 1 3/4 cups (460 mL) all-purpose flour 1/2 cup (125 mL) rice flour 1 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, plus 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon more for glaze 1 teaspoon ground sweet or hot paprika 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon celery salt 2 or 3 sprigs fresh rosemary 1 or 2 lemons, cut into wedges 1/4 cup (60 mL) honey First, marinate the chicken: Place the chicken pieces on a baking sheet. Season on both sides with salt and black pepper. Pour the buttermilk into a large mixing bowl. Add the chicken, cover the bowl, and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours, turning occasionally. Before frying, pour enough peanut oil to reach a depth of 1 inch (2.5 cm) in a heavy large skillet, preferably cast-iron. Heat the oil to 350 to 365 F. (175 C to 185 C) on a deep-frying thermometer. In a large sealable plastic bag, combine the flour, rice flour, white pepper, cayenne, paprika, garlic powder and celery salt. Close the bag and shake to blend. Remove 2 pieces of chicken from the buttermilk, place them in the bag, close the bag, and shake to coat them evenly. Transfer to a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining pieces. Carefully add the chicken, skin side down, to the hot oil in the skillet. Fry until deep brown and cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes per side depending on size, adjusting the heat to maintain the frying temperature; add the rosemary sprig to the oil, if you like. (A chicken piece will be cooked through if, after removing it from the oil, it registers 165 F/74 C on an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat not touching bone.) Using tongs, transfer the cooked chicken to a rack. Arrange the cooked chicken pieces on a napkin-lined platter. Place the lemon wedges around the chicken. In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the honey. Stir in the extra cayenne to taste. Drizzle the honey over the chicken. Serve immediately.
