Jackson Twenty-One Zoning Change Made
By Jennifer Peacock JACKSON – The township council is clear to pass an ordinance that would create two new zones to accommodate the Jackson Twenty-One project. The planning board said the ordinance was “not inconsistent” with the township’s land use laws. The board approved that ordinance, which heads back to council for a final vote at its May 9 meeting. The ordinance will create t wo zones: Mixed Use Neighborhood Center/ Highway Commercial and Mixed Use Neighborhood Center/ Light Industrial, only along Com modore Boulevard, off exit 21 on Route 195. The language arrived at by the township and Jackson Twenty-One representatives took years to agree upon, officials said. The 26-page ordinance spells out permitted uses for buildings and spaces within the zones. The MUNC provides for a minimum of 1,365 “dwelling units,” 20 percent or a minimum of 273 units being affordable
family rental units. There must also be a minimum of 273,000 square feet of required commercial space. There are 24 permitted uses for buildings, including business offices and services, barber shops, dance or photography studios, hotels, museums and theaters, and parks. The amount of commercial space permitted is dependent on how many residential units are built. Council President Kenneth Bressi, who sits on the planning board, said residential development must stop and commercial development begin once that threshold is met. Planner Ernest Peters told the board the ordinance “breathes life” into affordable housing obligations, bringing the township closer to meeting Council on Affordable Housing round two and three obligations. “This ordinance is a benefit to the town. The courts liked it,” Bressi said. “It is a big step forward for the town.” Jackson Development Company manager (Zoning - See Page 5)

Vax-D Spinal Decompression Allows Back Pain to Heal…NATURALLY Many back pain conditions that we see can be helped by our state of the art Vax-D decompression table. Decompression relieves pressure that builds up on the discs and nerves. The task of relieving pain comes about as a result of drawing the leaking gel of a herniated disc back into place. Decompression achieves this by creating negative pressure within the disc, referred to as negative intra-discal pressure. This creates essentially a vacuum to draw the bulging and herniated disc material back into the disc space and relieves pressure. This process of non-surgical decompression allows the body to heal itself naturally. Vax-D decompression tables have been successfully operating for over 15 years throughout the world and more than 3,000 patients a day receive this treatment in the U.S. alone. Vax-D is one of the FDAcleared technologies available at Northeast Spine and

Parkinsons:
Continued From Page 1 the Calogeros hadn’t seen in three years asked Barry’s wife, Gina, if he had had a stroke. Gina was taken aback. But the friend pointed out that Barry’s lip was drooping, his speech slurred and slow. A 30-year reunion later on had friends and acquaintances asking the same thing. Calogero was not the same person they all knew. Those repeated concerns drove Calogero to a neurologist, who immediately diagnosed him with Parkinson’s. Further tests confirmed that. “People say it’s a terrible thing, because I’m only 55 years old. I look at it and say, ‘People have cancer, people have much more significant ailments than Parkinson’s. And I’ll deal with it and I’ll survive and I’ll fight and I’ll advocate for it. That’s why I’m so happy the mayor and council allowed me to read the proclamation.” April is Parkinson’s Awareness Month, and as he did last April, Calogero read into the minutes a proclamation for the month. According to the National Parkinson’s Foundation, Parkinson’s is a neurodegenerative disease caused by decreasing levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine. Less dopamine means the body cannot adequately regulate movements and emotions. While the disease itself isn’t fatal, complications arising from it often cause death. The Centers for Disease Control name Parkinson’s the 14th leading cause of the death in the United States.
While doctors work to manage symptoms and maintain the quality of life for patients, there is no cure for Parkinson’s. There is no “normal” progression of the disease, but there are five stages that doctor’s use to describe its progression. Calogero is in stage one, which the National Parkinson’s Foundation describes as “the person has mild symptoms that generally do not interfere with daily activities. Tremor and other movement symptoms occur on one side of the body only. Friends and family may notice changes in posture, walking and facial expressions.” “I think I’m doing great. I think most people haven’t noticed it yet,” Calogero said. He is taking two medications, Carbidopa and Levodopa, the first to treat the nausea caused by the second, which synthesizes dopamine. The drugs help, but Calogero has realized he has to slow down and can’t do what he used to do. He was very active and into sports. Exercise does help with Parkinson’s, he said. He’s eating healthier too. Calogero is looking to create a foundation next year to make people aware of Parkinson’s. But for now, he wants to encourage those with the disease to do a lot of research and understand their diagnosis. “Live every day like it’s your last. Enjoy life. I went to the beach with my wife today and I said to her, the way I’m looking at things, I’m not looking at the badness of things, I’m looking at the goodness of today,” Calogero said. “If anything, that’s what my advice would be. Don’t worry about tomorrow. Enjoy today.”
DEP:
Continued From Page 1 held on May 9 at 6 p.m. in the auditorium of Jackson Memorial High School, located at 101 Don Connor Blvd. The meeting is just to gather comments about the development. No decisions will be made at that time. To provide written comments, write to the Bureau Section Chief, Bureau of Coastal Regulation, Division of Land Use Regulation, New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, Mail Code 501-02A, P.O. Box 420, Trenton, NJ 08625-0420. A letter from the DEP addressed to Mordechai Sternstein at GDMS Holdings listed a number of deficiencies in the project. Some might just be paperwork filing issues, but some might be greater. Documentation proving that the utility providers have adequate capacity for water and sewer. Additionally, the sewer line is proposed to link to a development across from August Boulevard. There needs to be documentation to prove that there will not be any negative effects from this. There might be too much impervious coverage in the development plan. Environmental regulations require a certain percentage of open ground. The remainder, made up of roads and buildings, is called impervious coverage. Developers are given a certain percentage of impervious coverage, and they can’t build
more than that. However, the property was previously part of a larger development, which included the residential community “The Fairways.” The permit from this development predates this proposal. If Fairways was part of the impervious coverage percentage, there might not be enough left over to have this proposal. An off-site parcel is proposed to be part of the open space for the area, but it is not clear if it meets certain requirements. The applicant has asked that 41.066 acres of forested areas be built upon. The applicant has not shown that this is in the public interest. There can be no adverse impact to two species, the red headed woodpecker and the northern long eared bat. The development is also planned in wetlands, and upon habitat of the northern pine snake. The traffic impact study does not account for the total number of proposed units. Construction on steep slopes associated with wetlands, threatened and endangered species habitat, and forested areas is “discouraged.” Standing water in the infiltration basins shall not be more than 2 feet. It is estimated to be 6.3 feet in the retail lot basin and 11.07 feet in the main infiltration basin. The way that the proposal measured permeability of the soil and the high water table needs to be up to a different standard.

DEP Commissioner Updates Mayors On Issues
By Chris Lundy TOMS RIVER – State Department of Environmental Protection Commissioner Bob Martin told politicians assembled at the Ocean County Mayor’s Association meeting how to plan for environmental improvements and updated them on the status of several key issues. Martin was the guest speaker at the April 20 meeting, held at The Grove restaurant, adjacent to the Howard Johnson’s on Hooper Avenue. He assured the crowd that although the administration of Gov. Chris Christie is coming to an end, the department won’t coast to a stop. It will continue to work on the goals of environmental protection and advocacy. Part of this is behind the scenes, in the form of changing regulations to streamline processes. For example, the DEP has guided more than 340 cases to alternative dispute resolution. This keeps disputes out of the courts, and cuts down on the costs and time consumption of the parties. The result has been an 80 percent success rate - success meaning that both parties walked away from the table happy. “We have not changed standards,” but fixed regulations, he said. The laws protecting the environment have not lapsed, rather, the paperwork behind it all has been reduced. With new laws going on the books all the time, it becomes difficult for applicants to get information to the correct DEP employee, and navigate the maze-like permitting process. Therefore, a goal was to cut back on a lot of the paperwork that needed to get done.
“In the old days, they used to bring boxes and boxes of papers to the offices,” he said. What Mayors Should Do Martin advised the politicians in attendance what steps they should take to get work done in their town. He encouraged them to seek out Environmental Infrastructure Trust Fund money to replace the aging infrastructure for water and sewer lines. These are low-interest, longterm loans. They should address flooding on their own now, with a combination of short-term and long-term plans, he said. “There is no money in the state to deal with Back Bay flooding,” he said. Therefore, local governments must be responsible to install bulkheads and pump stations. At the same time, they should be putting into place plans for the next 10 or 20 years. Public Access Public access to beaches was one of the bullet points he wanted to address. “This administration inherited a bit of a mess on public access,” he said. The former way of thinking was that every town needed uniform regulations. However, it makes more sense to cater the regulations to the specific needs of each town. Indeed, towns should construct their own plans and get them approved by the state, as long as the plans meet guidelines for good public access policy. Summer Flounder Martin promised to continue to fight regulations limiting the size of summer flounder,
otherwise known as fluke. The worst part of the regulations would increase the minimum size from 17 inches to 19 inches. The problem with this is that the females are generally larger, so this would make females be caught disproportionately more than males. This would severely hurt future stocks. “We’re pushing back really hard” against these regulations, he said, adding that it would be devastating to a number of industries, from sport fishing and charter boats to restaurants. “It will cost us thousands of jobs and billions of dollars.” The DEP and Trump L. Stanton Hales, Jr., director of the Barnegat Bay Partnership, asked Martin how the DEP will function under the proposed budget cuts to environmental causes put forth by President Donald Trump. Martin said that the DEP has some autonomy when it comes to governing the state’s environmental regulations, which offers more protections. Even so, when looking over the
federal budget, it looks like there would be very little cut from the DEP. There are still a lot of steps to go before the budget is finalized, and all the DEP can do is keep an eye on it, he said. The DEP and Oyster Creek Now that the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station is in the decades-long process of decommissioning, there is another environmental issue. Yucca Mountain, the nuclear waste repository, has been closed. Therefore, the spent fuel rods will remain on the property indefinitely, something the local residents did not expect. “We’ve been working with (parent company) Exelon, and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” Martin said. “Right now, the fuel will remain there.” The fuel rods have to cool for at least five years, then stay in dry casks for even longer. “We’d prefer to move them sooner rather than later. The bigger challenge is that there is no storage in the country,” he said.

The Truth About Orthodox Jews Matters I am responding to a letter in the March 18 Jackson Times submitted by Joseph Flanner y regarding Orthodox Jews, dormitories, and ordinances thereabout. In his letter entitled With Due Respect, Mr. Flannery makes one point, in particular, with which I take exception. Like Mr. Flannery, I am married to a Jew. Like Mr. Flannery, I do not want dormitories, and, in my case, any further development of any kind in Jackson. In my 18 years here, I believe we have seen more than enough development to suffice the needs of our suburban community. But I digress. Mr. Flannery writes: “I see the Jewish population forcing and pushing their cultural and religious way of life on Jackson, its residents and our neighbors. The way it had done in Lakewood for years.” Not only is this not true, but it will, no doubt, serve to exacerbate the recent divisiveness brought about by the aforementioned controversial development. To believe that Lakewood’s Orthodox – or any other Jewish Orthodox community for that matter – is attempting to “force [its] religious ways of life” on anyone – in Jackson or elsewhere – is entirely misguided. Although my husband is a practicing Jew, he is (obviously) not a member of the Orthodox community
for he’d not have married Just like any that come with it regardless Letters To opportunity. The Editor a non-Jew if he was. Most of his family, however, is observant, that is, they keep kosher, keep Shabbas, and steadfastly observe all of the various holidays and fasts required of strictly adherent Jews. Hence as someone who has been there up close and personal for many years, and who has celebrated many occasions with their (Hasidic) rabbi and his wonderful family who accept me despite being a shiksa, I can tell you for a fact that religious Jews have no interest in “forcing or pushing their cultural and religious ways” on anyone. In fact, they are more inclined to live a cloistered existence than to assimilate with the “outside world.” Why? Because strictly adhering to the tenants of Judaism is paramount to the observant community. In fact, toward this end, they not only live by The Torah but “put a wall around” it as well, meaning not only do they live according to their holy scriptures, but they go a step further to avoid temptation by keeping amongst themselves. That said, the idea that Orthodox Jews are somehow attempting to have the residents of Jackson live according to their ways simply does not comport with this, in fact, it flies squarely in its face. So the question then becomes: what is behind the Orthodox Jewish community’s push to develop in Jackson in accordance with its religious practices? Simple. Space and business

other culture would do given the need. Most religious Jews are moving to New Jersey from Brooklyn. Brooklyn is and has been congested for decades. Lakewood is also quickly filling to the brim if it is not already. The next logical step? Spreading out into the neighboring towns. The Orthodox are essentially doing what any other community does when it sees what it perceives to be the geographic opportunity to grow. I am a native of Staten Island and I can tell you that we experienced the very same thing. Italian-Americans were pouring in from Brooklyn like mighty flood waters. And with them came their (alien) ways. I’m an Italian-American, but I grew up in a different world from those who sought to “take over” my cherished homeland. We didn’t fight it. It unfolded before our eyes while we sat and watched as though we had to. It was a different time. The builders and politicians and whomever had their hands in the cookie jar took full advantage at our expense. The Staten Island I knew is now long since dead and gone. It’s barely recognizable. What happened there is now happening here. But…make no mistake, it’s not just the Orthodox who are looking to ravage Jackson. We must keep our eye on the ball because while we are busy running about with our pitchforks and torches and hair on fire over the religious community attempting to plant their flag, there are others – not part of the Orthodox community – attempting to do (and doing) the very thing for which we condemn them. Builders and government officials alike see available land and the dollar signs
of religious affiliation. They will tell us it’s for our own good; that it is “progress,” and they even threaten that our taxes will rise if we do not submit…but we know better. To wrap up, I think that Mr. Flannery’s piece is a reminder that it is important for us to avoid jumping to unfounded and baseless conclusions when it comes to our Jewish neighbors. It would behoove us to judge their behavior based on facts, not what we “feel” is behind it. As long as we keep to a standard that applies to everyone when it comes to development, and we keep religion and the unfounded stigmas that come with it apart from our decision making, we can peacefully coexist while keeping Jackson from becoming just another overpopulated, congested town riddled with long lines, heavy traffic, and escalating taxes.

Law Enforcement Is A Noble Profession Every 61 hours in the United States, a police officer is killed in the line of duty. National Police Week is May 14 to 20. It is to pay special recognition to those law enforcement officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty for the safety and protection of others. During this time we remember Detective Marc Anthony DiNardo of the Jersey City Police Department, Police Officer Chris Matlosz of the Lakewood Police Depar t ment and countless others. It is a noble profession. Jim Nowacki Brick, NJ

Congressman Smith Presents Medals To 93-Year-Old WWII Veteran From The Desk Of
Congressman
Chris Smith WALL TOW NSHIP – On April 19, Congressman Chris Smith (NJ-04) presented military service medals to Al Salazar, 93, of Wall Township for his service in World War II, including the invasion of Normandy. Salazar served under both General Omar Bradley and later Lt. General George Patton. Among his critical duties were operating as “the radio man” and sending Morse code signals. “It was 73 years ago this week that Mr. Salazar landed in Europe as a 20-year-old young man,” said Smith, the former Chairman of the Veterans Committee in the House of Representatives for four years and a senior Mem-
ber on the House Foreign Affairs Committee. “He is truly part of the ‘Greatest Generation’ that helped liberate Europe and create a foundation for peace after two horrendous World Wars. I am honored and humbled to present these medals to him today on behalf of a grateful nation. We thank God for you and what you did, Mr. Salazar.” At a presentation before the veteran’s family at the Xanadu senior condominium club house in Wall Township, Smith presented Salazar with: Medal Set, Army Good Conduct Medal European–African Middle Eastern Campaign Medal
& Bronze Star Attachment (Quadruple) Medal Set, World War II Victory Medal Honorable Service Lapel Button WWII Marksman Badge & Rifle Bar New Jersey Distinguished Service Medal and Certificate After the family experienced difficulties with acquiring the medals, Smith intervened with the National Archives’ National Personal Records Center and requested that the medals be issued. The Army approved the request and Smith received the medals in February. Salazar’s health prohibited a medal ceremony until now. “These medals are a small but important part of both his life and his family’s history,” Smith said. “I am glad his daughter Linda prompted Mr. Salazar to seek them, because he served his country honorably and is very deserving of this recognition.”

Our current inmate policy makes certain individuals like gang members here illegally who pose a significant threat to public safety are kept off of our streets and are given over to the proper authorities.” Ocean County’s 48 Hour Immigration Detainer Policy was crafted on July 28, 2015 by Jail Warden Mueller. This was done to cooperate with the intention of detainer requests by ICE under the Priority Enforcement Program (PEP). This policy was jointly developed with ICE. Under the policy Ocean County
would maintain custody, not to exceed 48 hours, of a removable alien who has been identified as an immigration enforcement pr ior it y u nder the Pr iority Enforcement Program and that probable cause existed that these individuals are removable aliens. Earlier detainment procedures were not this specific and had not been c reat ed i n pa r t ne r sh ip with ICE which appears to have resulted in the county being viewed as a sanctuary county. Kelly noted another example of Ocean County’s cooperation with ICE is the assignment of an ICE officer to the Ocean Coun-
ty Department of Corrections to review all new commitments for possible ICE enforcement action. Kelly said that under the Priority Enforcement Program, the DHS is enabled to work with state and local law enforcement to take custody of individuals who pose a danger to public safety before those individuals are released into our communities. “Our detainer procedures went through some changes until we got together with ICE and hashed out a policy acceptable to all of us,” Kelly said. Despite the revisions made by the County in coope r at ion w it h ICE ,
starting in the fall of 2015, t he C ou nt y b eg a n b e ing identified on certain web sites as a Sanctuary City, even though its 2015 inmate policy had been developed in conjunction with ICE. “Clearly we work cooperatively with ICE,” Kelly said. “We will continue to reach out to those agencies that list us incorrectly and also let them know we a re not on the ICE declined detainer outcome report.” Those agencies include t he ACLU, t he C e nt e r for Immigration Studies and the Immigrant Legal Resource Center and some media outlets.

The arrestee is charged with possession of marijuana over 50 grams, possession of marijuana in excess of one ounce with the intent to distribute, possession of cocaine, possession of cyclobenzaprine, possession of alprazolam and possession of drug paraphernalia. He was processed and released on summons pending a court appearance. On April 4 detectives and police officers conducted a search of a residence on South Dakota

GCU Offers Guaranteed Admission To North Jersey High School Students
LAKEWOOD – Georgian Court University is making it easier for students at Immaculate Conception High School in Montclair to get into college. A new guaranteed admissions agreement signed on April 5 offers ICHS students a seamless transition from high school and into Georgian Court. “This is an important relationship for Georgian Court, not only because you’re Lions and we’re Lions. We share a mascot, but we also share a mission. It’s important to continue to expand Catholic education to give students the opportunity to continue their journey into higher education through Georgian Court,” said GCU President Dr. Joseph R. Marbach, Ph.D. ICHS President Celia Honohan told her students that this was a “historic day.” She added: “It’s redefining how we do admissions. We are looking at your future because it is right around the corner.” In addition to ensuring access to a quality education, both institutions are equally concerned about making sure students graduate and take their education to the next level. “The guaranteed admissions agreement directly benefits Immaculate Conception students who are looking to continue their education by providing seamless admissions and financial aid processes, early academic advising, and increased scholarships,” explained Justin G. Roy, GCU dean of admissions. “I am thrilled and honored to enter into this partnership with GCU, an outstanding Catholic college on a beautiful campus,” said Michele Neves, ICHS principal. “I know the fine work done at the university, and even more than that, I am impressed by the care Georgian Court takes of all of its students. I look forward to a long, healthy and happy partnership. May God continue to bless both of our communities!” The new agreement reflects the institutions’ shared commitment to providing meaningful, viable options for those pursuing higher education. “You may be the first person in your family to go to college. At Georgian Court, we celebrate that. More than 40% of our students are the first in their family to go to college,” said Dr. Marbach. “Just for being a student and graduating from here, you’re eligible for $10,000 to $19,000 per year to start. We have other scholarships on top of that, depending on what you’re involved in,” explained Dean Roy, who invited the sophomores and juniors in attendance to an April 8 Open House at GCU’s main campus in Lakewood.

How Popular Medications Wipe Out Folate And Lead To Depression By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
What I’m about to tell you has been known for years, though I’m just worried you don’t personally know. So I’m going to tell you about another ‘drug mugger’ this is a very important depletion because it has to do with a popular medication and an anti-cancer nutrient you need to avoid depression. Carbamazepine is a popular anti-epilepsy drug and works by suppressing nerve impulses that trigger seizures. It’s quite effective for certain types of seizure disorders and sometimes used for diabetic neuropathy, bipolar disorder and trigeminal neuralgia, a facial pain syndrome. According to a 2016 study published in the journal Clinical Laboratory, the drug seems to significantly reduce levels of both vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin) as well as natural folate, also called Vitamin B9. 1. Folate plays a huge role in cell and tissue growth. You have trillions of cells and the crystalline DNA strands in each cell are highly susceptible to harm. Folate encourages DNA synthesis and repair of ‘injured’ strands. Folate is needed for red blood cells, and to make iron in the body. So if you take a drug mugger of folate like carbamazepine (and there are over 150 other medications) then you need to be aware of this depletion. But I’m not saying to take folate supplements either, I’ll explain why at the end of this article. Right now I want to make the case for what happens to you when you take a drug mugger of natural folate (B9).
2) Where folate levels fall, especially in combination with B12 deficiency, homocysteine rises and this is a known risk factor for heart attacks. Homocysteine can also act as a neurotoxin causing brain fog. 3) Your body also requires folate to convert compounds in your brain into happy neurotransmitters and sleep hormones. In particular, folate is required to make more of your happy hormones like serotonin and dopamine. Folate deficiencies definitely play a role in depression and tearfulness, pre-menstrual moodiness and suicidal ideation. There’s even a drug version of folate called Deplin on the market, but it’s a stronger version of the same natural folate you can eat or supplement with. By the way, natural folate is superior to “folic acid” a synthetic form, at least in my opinion. I explain this, and give you other medications that deplete folate if you go to my website and read the longer version of this article. Be very careful because supplementing with folate vitamins because it can block the effect of your seizure medicine. The mechanism of action of anti-seizure drugs requires suppression of folate (in some cases) so don’t just go and supplement! Ask your doctor first and if permitted, use very low doses and separate from the medication. In some cases, you will not want to supplement at all with a dietary supplement, however, it might be okay to eat leafy greens which are very high in natural folate. Again, talk to your physician.

Ticks Carrying Lyme Disease Are On The Rise In Ocean County
OCEAN COUNTY – As the days start getting warmer, Ocean County officials warn residents to be aware of ticks and tick borne illnesses such as Lyme disease. “In 2015, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirmed that 95 percent of Lyme disease cases were reported in 14 states including New Jersey,” said Ocean County Freeholder Director Joseph H. Vicari, who is also liaison to the Rutgers Cooperative Extension Service. “County agencies are working together to educate and raise awareness so
we can keep the number of tick borne illness incidents low.” The Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies believes 2017 could be a bad year – a “forbidding forecast”– for Lyme disease, based on a large acorn crop in 2015 leading to an increase in the white-footed mouse population. Feeding on infected mice is a primary way ticks pick up Lyme and other diseases. Lyme disease is spread by the blacklegged tick (deer tick) which can be found on the shrubby understory of the forest, in high grassy areas
and in open fields. Ticks tend to favor the thick undergrowth of shrubs and small trees because they prefer cool, moist woodlands. According to the Rutgers Cooperative Extension Fact Sheet FS443 “Preventing Tick Bites: Prevent Lyme Disease,” about 20 to 45 percent of Ocean County, about 20 to 45 percent of blacklegged ticks in New Jersey (depending on the life stage and where they are found) are infected with and are able to transmit Lyme disease. More than 70 percent of Lyme disease cases occur from the bite of ticks in the nymph
stage – which is the size of a poppy seed. “When spending time outdoors it’s very important to be vigilant of tick bites,” Vicari said. Transmission of Lyme disease is mainly during the warmer months, but as long as temperatures are above freezing, blacklegged ticks are active the entire year. “One of the most important things we can do is take precautions that help reduce the chance of becoming infected with any tick-borne infection,” said Freeholder Gerry P. Little, who serves as liaison to the Ocean County Health Department. The Ocean County Health Department suggests that people take the following precautions to keep ticks off their skin: Walk on cleared trails and stay in the center of a trail to minimize contact with leaf litter, brush and high grasses where ticks are likely to be found. Minimize the amount of exposed skin. Wear thick white socks, long pants, and a long-sleeved shirt. Tuck the pant legs into the socks, so ticks cannot crawl up the inside of the pants. Wearing light-colored clothing also makes it easier to see ticks. If you see any ticks while still outside, remove them immediately before going indoors. Golfers walking through brushy areas should be aware of ticks. Apply repellents to skin and clothing; read and follow the label instructions. Products that contain DEET can be directly applied to exposed skin and to clothing to help keep ticks away. The product label will give details about how to apply the repellent and how to use it safely on children. Permethrin (hunter-grade) products can be applied to clothing/boots/shoes (NOT TO SKIN) and actually kill ticks on contact with the treated clothing. This is usually effective on clothing through several washings. After outdoor activities, be sure to check your body for ticks and remove any immediately. Use a hand-held mirror to thoroughly view all parts of the body. Check children and pets for ticks, also. If you find a tick on yourself, your child or your pet: Use fine-tipped tweezers to grasp the tick as close to the skin’s surface as possible. Pull upward with steady, even pressure. Don’t twist or jerk the tick; this can cause the mouthparts to break off and remain in the skin. If this happens, remove the mouth-parts with tweezers. After removing the tick, thoroughly clean the bite area and your hands with rubbing alcohol, an iodine scrub, or soap and water. It is important to remember that a tick must feed for at least 24 hours before they can begin to transmit the Lyme disease bacterium Avoid folklore remedies such as “painting” the tick with nail polish or petroleum jelly, or using heat to make the tick detach from the skin. Health officials also recommend if you find a tick, place it in a sealed container with a slightly damp (with water, not alcohol) piece of paper towel. You may take the tick to the Rutgers Cooperative Extension located at 1623 Whitesville Road (at the corner of Whitesville Road and Sunset Avenue) in Toms River to be identified. Tick experts are available from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday to identify ticks. If the tick is identified as a black-legged tick, the staff will make recommendations according to the CDC. The Rutgers Extension also has a listing of labs that the tick can be sent to for testing. More information on ticks and preventing tick bites can be obtained by calling the Rutgers Cooperative Extension Office at 732-349-1246, visiting the Extension Office website at ocean. njaes.rutgers.edu or by visiting the Ocean County Health Department website at ochd.org.

Ocean County Dedicates Day To Education And Sharing
OCEAN COUNTY – On April 7, Ocean County Freeholders marked the 115th Anniversary of the Rebbe’s date of birth with “Education Day.” Often described as the most influential rabbi in modern history, the teachings of Rebbe, or Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, emphasize the inherent goodness of mankind, the infi nite potential within every individual and the profound value of even the smallest good deed, which as inspired multitudes of people and resonated globally. “The young are the leaders of the next generation,” he would say, “And proper education can prevent many of today’s challenges.” Rabbi Schneerson was the only rabbi ever to receive the Congressional Gold Medal and to have an American national day proclaimed in his honor, Education and Sharing Day. His role within the Jewish community was unparalleled, both as a
preeminent scholar and as an indefatigable leader. In commemoration of the anniversary, Ocean County Freeholder Director Joseph Vicari has proclaimed April 7, 2017 as “Education Day” in the County of Ocean and “Called upon educators, volunteers and citizens, to reach out to young people and work to create a better, brighter, and more hopeful future for all.” “This is an opportunity,” explains Rabbi Moshe Gourarie, Director of Chabad in Toms River, one of the thousands of Jewish Centers established by the Rebbe, “To stop and contemplate on the state of education in our families and in our community, and to inspire one another to enhance and expand the educational opportunities for the young in our midst. For more information about the Rebbe, visit: therebbe.org or contact Rabbi Moshe Gourarie at 732-267-0024.
Water Color And Oil Paintings To Be Exhibited At OCHS
TOMS R I V ER – Visit the Ocean County Historical Society from May 30 to September 8 to view water color and oil paintings by Ocean County artist Arthur E. Stevens. Some of St even’s pai nt i ngs have already been enjoyed by community members via the stairwell to the Birdsall Room, but these are just a few paintings within his vast portfolio. Stevens is married to the former Virginia Fretz and they currently reside in Forked R iver. He reti red f rom a teaching career of 36 years in 1994, and in the words of his grandson Russell Risden, he is a “Renaissance man” be-
cause of his knowledge of many subject areas, numerous travels and scholarly pursuits. Learn more about this talented artist by visiting the museum on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1 to 3:30 p.m. and on the f irst Saturday of each month from 1 to 3:30 p.m. The artist can be met in person on September 2 in the Pauline Miller room from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. during the 31st Annual Antiques, Crafts and Collectibles Faire. Paintings that depict Ocean County scenes can be purchased during this event. Admission to the museum for tours is free, but donations are accepted.

Dear Joel
By Joel Markel
Chatty Patty Exhausts Patience, Possibly Priest
Dear Joel, I enjoy going to church and I often go with a friend. When the service is over, the priest waits at the back of the church to say hello, and wish everyone blessings. My problem is that my friend sometimes has her friend come with us and she strikes up a long conversation with the priest as the people are exiting. Doesn’t she know that father wants to greet everyone? I have even said, “Can you imagine how tired father must be, saying all those masses and talking with everyone in the church after”, but she doesn’t get it. What should I do? Praying for patience in Toms River Dear Praying, I wish I could be the answer to your prayers, but this is a challenge. It’s very hard for some people to learn to be sensitive. You might
want to try a few tricks, like leaving from a side door, staying a few minutes longer for some extra prayers or striking up your own conversation with your friends in the vestibule, to delay her exit until most people have left. If that doesn’t work, you may want to be more direct, saying you’ll be happy to wait with her so she can speak to father after the crowds have gone. The reception line is no place for serious conversations. Hopefully she’ll catch on. If not, you’ll have to skip services that she is planning on attending with your friend. Write to joel@preferredcares.com. His radio show, “Preferred Company” airs on Monday through Friday from 8 to 10 a.m. on preferredradio. com and 1160 & 1310 WOBM-AM

Some of the hardest Wills to draft are those for persons with “blended families.” A “blended family” is a family where one or both spouses each have children from a prior marriage. In a Will for a traditional family (one where the children are children of both spouses) most Wills will leave all assets to the surviving spouse and upon the death of the surviving spouse to their common children. However, using the same distribution scheme for a blended family may not always work. The issue arises when one of the spouses passes away and leaves all of their assets to the surviving spouse. What happens if the surviving spouse then changes their will to exclude the children of the predeceased spouse? For example, Harry Husband, who has three children from a prior marriage, marries Wilma Wife, who has two children from a prior marriage. Harry and Wilma have Wills prepared, which leave all of their assets to each other and then to the children in equal shares. Harry dies and all of his assets pass to Wilma. Wilma then decides to change her Will to leave all of the combined assets to her two children, thus cutting out Harry’s three children from their father’s inheritance. Upon Wilma’s death, Harry’s children will not be happy to learn that they are inheriting nothing from their father. What could Harry have done in such circumstances to have prevented this? First, Harry could have left some portion of his assets directly to his children upon his death. For example, he could have stated in his Will that 50 percent of his assets go directly to his children and the remaining 50 percent be left to Wilma. In this way, his children would have inherited their share at the time Harry dies, guaranteeing their inheritance. The problem with this method is that Wilma may not be able to continue to live receiving only 50 percent of Harry’s assets. Another alternative would be that Harry could
have left his assets in a trust created in his Will for Marc S. Galella Esq. Wilma’s support during her life and upon her death the remaining balance, if any, to Harry’s children. In this way, Harry could have provided for his wife during her life and his children would inherit any monies left over after Wilma dies. The drawback to this method is that it requires that a trust be established in the Will, which creates a more complicated Will and administration after Harry dies. Finally, Harry and Wilma could have prepared what is referred to as “mutual” or “contract” Wills. These are Wills that, once made, cannot be changed without the written consent of both parties. Thus, once Harry died, Wilma could not change her Will to disinherit Harry’s children, because Harry did not consent to that change. Even this method is not perfect because this may prevent Wilma from making a legitimate change to her Will after Harry dies. Persons with blended families should talk to an estate planning attorney about how they wish to provide for both their children from a prior marriage and their current spouse in making a Will.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of April 29 - May 5 By Jeraldine Saunders
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Caution keeps you out of harm’s way. The wolf might knock on your door but you don’t have to answer. You can make headway with career, financial concerns and business this week without neglecting family needs. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Put out your feelers. You are like a spider with a web to spin. Creative ability requires the energy to begin something plus the inspiration to choose what to create. Let your ambitions guide you in the week ahead. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): In the week ahead you may learn a lesson about clinging to the past. You may find that your way is barred if you stubbornly refuse to cooperate or hold a grudge. Give a certain someone the benefit of the doubt. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Be inspired by a special someone and adapt to a changing environment. You may be tempted to keep new contacts at arm’s length, but in the week ahead should participate in group activities to widen your knowledge. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Carve your own niche. Warmth and charm aren’t your only admirable traits. This isn’t a good week to make a major change but it can be a good time to consolidate your ideas and to place emphasis on developing friendships. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You have the choice. You can be generous and understanding or expect everyone to toe the line. In the week ahead you might be wise to focus on understanding why people do what they do rather than if they do it. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Plan ahead for
the future since that’s where you will spend the rest of your life. Your judgment is better than usual this week so this is a good time to meet important new people through your job or to launch crucial projects. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You cannot change the cards you are dealt, just how you play the hand. You may be more interested in money saving ideas and career success than hugs and kisses in the week ahead. Do not take on new debts. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Self-discipline can be a lifesaver. If you practice your craft and color within the lines you may end up becoming an expert. Develop a better understanding with loved ones and friends as this week unfolds. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t judge the book by its cover. The person who seems overly concerned with manners and conventions might be very nice once you delve past the surface. This week you can widen your circle of contacts. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Expect the best and you can rest. An opportunity may arrive in the week ahead, giving you an acceptable way to escape from a costly situation. Check the answering service and email so you don’t miss a crucial message. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): There is enough sympathy to go around. Nurture your relationships in the week to come. If you are contented with what you have your joint resources will thrive. Don’t be discouraged by criticism or negativity.

Roll Into Spring: Celebrate Earth Day Using Garden-Fresh Ingredients By Wolfgang Puck
All along the streets near my Spago restaurant in Beverly Hills, colorful banners have been announcing local observances for Earth Day. Officially celebrated on April 22, the event began on college campuses across the nation back in 1970 and aims to make all of us more aware of the importance of keeping our planet healthy, clean and safe. For me, the ideal place to celebrate Earth Day is at my local farmers’ market. Where else can you see the beautiful ingredients that result from organic, sustainable farming, and taste how good they can be? That is especially true in springtime, as the earth renews itself after winter and begins to give us so many delicious, colorful, healthful vegetables. How do you observe the holiday in your own kitchen? Just about any recipe featuring the bounty of the earth would make a good choice, including salads, vegetable soups, stir-fries, pasta dishes tossed with julienned vegetables, and on and on. But I thought it would be especially fun to mark this Earth Day with a recipe that literally has the season in its name. It’s one of the Chinese cuisine’s most popular appetizers: spring rolls. These crispy cylinders get their name for a pair of related reasons. Whether their filling includes some form of meat or is completely vegetarian, they typically feature lots of fresh vegetables, all rolled up inside a thin noodle wrapper. For that reason, they are traditionally served as a special treat during the Chinese Spring Festival, the 15-day-long observance of the Chinese New Year as winter gives way to spring. So I hope you’ll find the following recipe for vegetarian spring rolls a perfect treat to honor Earth Day. They’re ideal to prepare on a weekend, when you have a little extra time, and you’ll find them surprisingly easy to make if you keep a few simple things in mind. First, streamline shopping by heading either to a well-stocked supermarket with a good Asian foods section or to a nearby Chinese market. That’s where you’ll be sure to locate the few special - but not really hard to find - ingredients like glass noodles, mushroom soy sauce, pickled ginger, and packaged spring roll wrappers. Next, be sure to carefully follow the instructions for stir-frying each julienned vegetable individually, ensuring that they’re all tender-crisp; and then to drain the vegetable mixture well, so your filling and wrapper won’t be soggy. Finally, fry the rolls cautiously, taking care first to make sure the oil is the proper temperature and then to avoid overcrowding the oil, which can drop the frying temperature. It’s that easy. And you’ll wind up with a perfect treat for your own at-home Earth Day party! VEGETARIAN SPRING ROLLS Makes 20 to 24 For the hot Chinese mustard sauce: 4 tablespoons Chinese dry mustard 2 tablespoons water 2 tablespoons rice vinegar 4 tablespoons pickled ginger liquid 1 lemon, juiced Pinch turmeric 1 tablespoon sugar 1 large pasteurized egg yolk 1 tablespoon chile oil 1 tablespoon sesame oil 1 cup (250 mL) peanut oil Aromatics: 2-inch (5-cm) piece fresh ginger, peeled 3 large cloves garlic 2 green onions
Pinch red pepper flakes 1/2 cup (125 mL) peanut oil Pinch salt Pinch black pepper Pinch sugar For the vegetable filling: 1 large onion, trimmed 1 medium carrot, trimmed and peeled 1/4 pound (125 g) fresh shiitake mushrooms, stemmed 1 large red bell pepper, halved, stemmed, and seeded 1 large yellow bell pepper, halved, stemmed and seeded 1 small green cabbage, cored Peanut oil, for stir-frying Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 1/4 pound (125 g) glass noodles, soaked in cold water for 10 minutes, then drained and chopped into smaller strands 1/4 cup (60 mL) mushroom soy sauce 2 tablespoons chile paste 1 tablespoon sesame oil 1 bunch cilantro leaves, chopped To form the spring rolls: Spring roll wrappers 1 large egg beaten together with 1 tablespoon each water and cornstarch, to make an egg wash Peanut oil, for deep-frying First, prepare the hot Chinese mustard sauce. In a bowl, combine all the sauce ingredients except the oils. Stir well with a whisk. While stirring briskly, drizzle in each oil until emulsified. Cover and refrigerate. Next, prepare the aromatic mixture. In a processor with the stainless-steel blade, combine the ginger, garlic, green onions and pepper flakes. With the machine running, slowly pour in the oil; continue processing until pureed. In a saute pan or wok, cook over medium-high heat until aromatic, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt, pepper and sugar. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. For the vegetable filling, cut each vegetable into thin julienne strips. Heat a little peanut oil in a wok over high heat. One at a time, stir-fry each vegetable until brightly color and tender-crisp, 1 to 2 minutes; then, season lightly with salt and pepper and transfer to a large bowl, adding each new vegetable as done. Drain excess liquid from the vegetables. Stir in the noodles, mushroom soy sauce, chile paste, sesame oil and cilantro. Adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper. Set aside to cool. When the vegetables have cooled, stir in the aromatic mixture. As soon as you are ready to form spring rolls, use clean hands to squeeze out all excess liquid. To form the spring rolls, place a wrapper on a clean work surface and brush its edges evenly with egg wash. Place about 1/2 cup (125 mL) of filling near one edge. Fold in both sides over the filling and roll up the filling inside, gently pressing down and sealing the wrapper’s final edge. Repeat until all filling has been used. Fill a deep fryer with the peanut oil; or pour into a deep pot to a depth sufficient to submerge the rolls. Heat the oil to 350 F (175 C). Deep-fry the rolls in batches, taking care not to overcrowd, until deep golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. With the deep-fryer basket or a wire skimmer, transfer to paper towels to drain. With a sharp knife, carefully cut each roll in half. Drizzle with hot Chinese mustard sauce, or pass it alongside for dipping. Serve immediately.
