By Chris Christopher TOMS RIVER – The Manchester Township High School Hawks were a team of Destiny.

Freshman forward Destiny Adams scored 28 points to propel the top-seeded Hawks past second-ranked Toms River North 61-48 in the championship game of the WOBM Christmas Classic in girls basketball action.

Named the Classic’s Most Valuable Player, Adams picked off 13 rebounds and added three assists and two steals for the Hawks (7- 0). T he 6 -foot-3 freshman put home two shots from downtown, spicing her showing at the RWJBarnabas Health Arena.

“Destiny plays every bit of 6-3,” Manchester coach Dave Beauchemin said. “There were h ig h expect at ions entering this season and she has done everything to live up to

Politicians Against Offshore Drilling

By Chris Lundy OCEAN COUNTY – Local politicians expressed their opposition to a draft plan to open almost all of the U.S. outer continental shelf to oil and gas exploration and drilling.

Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke announced a Draft Proposed Program that

| January 27, 2018

initially included 47 potential lease sales to energy companies in 25 of the 26 planning areas – 19 sales off the coast of Alaska, 7 in the Pacific Region, 12 in the Gulf of Mexico, and 9 in the Atlantic Region.

County and federal elected officials representing the shore

came out against this measure, sending press releases to media.

“I absolutely am opposed to any offshore drilling of any kind off the coast of New Jersey,” said Ocean County Freeholder Joseph H. Vicari, who serves as liaison to the county’s Division of Tourism and Business Develop-

ment. “Drilling for oil and natural gas off our coastline would pose more problems than it would remedy.”

T he Fr e e hold e r s passed a resolution opposing offshore drilling at the board’s Jan. 17 meeting. It would be one of many resolutions that they have passed in (Drilling - See Page 5)

By Kimberly Bosco MANCHESTER – At a recent council meeting, officials passed an ordinance that would allow for the advertisement and bidding of emergency generators for the township.

According to Council President Craig Wallis, emergency generators were purchased after Superstorm Sandy left numerous buildings without power for four to five days following the storm. He noted that the Manchester Township Police have been upgraded with a generator in the station and that this ordinance will just be continuing the process of upgrading the township’s resources elsewhere.

The emergency generators have not been purchased yet. This ordinance merely allows for the township to advertise for companies to submit bids to the township for providing the (Generators - See Page 8)

Hawks:

Continued From Page 1 them. She scores in bunches and scores so efficiently. She does not force shots. She is not a high volume shooter. She gets a lot of layups and is very good on free throws.

“She begins her offensive game on the perimeter. She gives us an interesting dynamic and is hard to guard. She is beginning to learn the varsity game. She plays pretty much everywhere. We will have her on the perimeter on one possession and on the low block on the next possession.”

Adams scored 10 points and added eight rebounds, three assists, one steal and two blocks in a first-round 64-13 win over No. 16 Sayreville. She burned No. 8 Colts Neck for 23 points, 11 rebounds, one assist, two steals and three blocks in a 68-29 win. She knocked down three treys and netted six free throws against Colts Neck.

She followed with six points, three rebounds and two assists in a 51-35 conquest of No. 5 Middletown South in the semifinals.

Adams began her varsity career with 28 points, six rebounds, four steals and one assist in a 67-63 win over Donovan Catholic in the regular-season opener for both teams. She bucketed two treys against the Griffins.

“Destiny usually has quite a size advantage on the girl who defends her,” said Beauchemin, a 2000 Jackson Memorial graduate. “Destiny has an array of moves near the basket. She does not have the old school hook shot, but she has the drop step

and the middle turn. She squares her shoulder and is real strong with both hands.”

Kemari Reynolds, a 5-8 sophomore guard, added 10 points, three rebounds, four assists and two steals against the 2016 champion Mariners. Reynolds netted six free throws. She erupted for 25 points she converted 14 free throws - and added seven rebounds, three steals and two assists against Donovan.

“She is doing great and has really adapted,” said Beauchemin, assisted by Troy Madison and Sarah Paturzo. “She has taken control of our offense. She has shown a great maturity in the way she has evolved with the talented pieces (players) who are around her.”

The Hawks sped to an 18-7 first-quarter lead against the Mariners, who lost their first game of the season in seven outings.

“Pretty much everything worked well,” said Beauchemin, the Hawks’ seventh-year coach. “We started getting out in transition right away. We began the game with an 8-0 run and set the tone for ourselves. Once the game settled down and we got into our half court sets we were really in a great rhythm.

Reynolds was a big-time defender in the first quarter. She and Destiny did most of their defending on the perimeter.

“Both started for us last year (when the Hawks captured the NJSIAA South Jersey Group II title for their first sectional crown in school history and won 24 games to tie the school’s single-season record).”

Jenna Pack paced North with 13 points.

Brielle Bisogno added 10 points and six rebounds. Amanda Johnson added 10

points and four rebounds. Kristina Johnson contributed six points, five rebounds, one assist, two steals and one block.

“North played a great game,” Beauchemin said. “They have been a solid team in the Shore Conference for a long time. For the last few years, they have set the bar high for Ocean County girls basketball.”

Manchester made the most of its first trip to the championship game of the Classic, born in 1994.

Manchester has also received solid play from junior forward Dakota Adams, sophomore guard Serenity Anderson, senior forward Asha Harper and sophomore guard Nahkaleigh Hayes-Jones.

“Dakota is off to a great start and is very, very tough on the glass at 5-10,” Beauchemin said. “She is so good at making put backs. She boxes out so well and attacks the ball at its peak. She knows how to box out and keep her girl away from the ball.

She goes and gets it.”

Destiny Adams, Dakota Adams and Dejah Adams (the latter hit a clutch shot for the Hawks last season) have solid genetics.

Their father is Manchester principal Dennis Adams, the former Manchester football, basketball and baseball standout. Dejah Adams’ trey in the waning seconds gave the Hawks their sectional championship.

Anderson put her 5-9 frame to good use.

She scored seven points and added eight rebounds, four assists, two steals and one block against North. She rained home two treys against the Mariners.

“She started during most of last season for us,” Beauchemin said. “She is a very,

very smooth player who is a very, very solid guard in her own right. She likes to distribute the ball and has a nice three-point shot. She is very deceptive in her hesitation dribble. Her very long arms give us a good defender as she gets her hands on the balls that are in the passing lanes.”

The 5-10 Harper provides strong intangibles.

“She is a senior leader in every way,” Beauchemin said. “She can hit the three and play with her back to the basket. She can defend the power forwards and centers.

When we see a zone defense, she is our high post player as she is such a tremendous passer.

Hayes-Jones joined the varsity last season after spending the early part of the year at the junior varsity level.

“She has grown into her role,” Beauchemin said. “We know she will continue to develop. She is our ‘x’ factor off the bench. She is our sixth man and is doing a great job.”

Rounding out the team are 5-6 sophomore guard Victoria Labrecque, 5-7 freshman guard Morgan Brustman, 5-4 senior guard Cara Johnson and 5-7 junior guard Olivia Collura.

“We try to play the complete game on offense and defense,” Beauchemin said. “I respect and see the athleticism we have so when we have the chance we want to play the game fast. We also have the ability to execute in the half court offense. On defense, we pretty much play man-to-man and the girls embrace it.

“Tempo. Tempo. Tempo. That is the key.”

opposition to drilling over the years.

Such drilling would seriously impact the county’s tourism industry, which brought $4.68 billion into the local economy in 2016, Vicari said. “(Tourism) generates jobs, supports businesses and provides tax revenue, all of which could be endangered should offshore drilling be permitted,” Vicari said. “It doesn’t matter who proposes offshore drilling, it’s not good for New Jersey. It’s not a partisan issue.”

Congressman Chris Smith (R-NJ) said that New Jersey and other states with serious concerns about drilling should be exempt the same way Florida is.

“Florida is not ‘unique’ in this situation,” said Smith, who has historically been against offshore drilling here.

“New Jersey—along with other coastal states—has serious concerns about the potential consequences of offshore drilling and exploration for its $8 billion commercial and recreational f ishing industry and its beach tourism, which contributes significantly to its over $40 billion tourism industry.”

Since Zinke said a discussion with Florida Governor Rick Scott prompted him to leave Florida out of consideration for oil and gas, Smith said he hoped Zinke would heed similar calls from New Jersey.

Zinke said in a statement recently: “President Trump has directed me to The General’s

tion and transparency surrounding the Department of the Interior’s Draft Proposed Plan. The Secretary also reiterated his promise that stakeholders, including elected officials, local businesses, and fishing industry-related groups would be consulted on this issue. I appreciate Secretary Zinke’s friendship and the time he took to discuss this with me. I genuinely believe that we can work together to protect our environment and our shore economy from the dangers posed by drilling for oil off New Jersey’s coast.”

sent out a message to the media that he spoke with Zinke about the plan and expressed his opposition.

“I have been, and remain opposed to oil drilling off the New Jersey coast because of the potential threat to the environment and the Jersey Shore’s tourism and fishing industries,” MacArthur said. “Secretary Zinke has been a trusted friend and colleague - we served together on both the House Natural Resources and Armed Services Committees - and he assured me of continued communica-

rebuild our offshore oil and gas program in a manner that supports our national energy policy and also takes into consideration the local and state voice. I support the governor’s position that Florida is unique and its coasts are heavily reliant on tourism as an economic driver.

As a result of discussion with Governor [Scott] and his leadership, I am removing Florida from consideration for any new oil and gas platforms.”

Smith said he sent a letter of opposition to Zinke signed by all members of the New Jersey Congressional Delegation.

“Economically, this proposal will impact 1.4 million jobs and over $95 billion in gross domestic product that rely on healthy Atlantic Ocean ecosystems,” the letter stated. “We urge you to reconsider opening our coast to oil and gas exploration and development. Asserting our energy independence and protecting our environment do not have to be mutually exclusive, and we must accomplish this in a way that does not compromise our coastal waters and beaches that drive our economy.”

Even a minor oil spill could wash ashore and ruin native habitats and tourism, he said. The seismic testing can be disruptive and even fatal to marine wildlife.

“All states and localities opposed to this drilling proposal should be heard and those with compelling reasons, like New Jersey, should receive waivers, if we’re really about respecting local concerns in our national energy policy,” Smith said.

Smith Gives Keynote Speech On Human Trafficking At Seton Hall University From The Desk Of

Congressman

Chris Smith NEW JERSEY – Invited weeks ago to Seton Hall University’s conference on human trafficking, Rep. Chris Smith, the prime author of the nation’s landmark Trafficking Victims Protection Act, worked through the emergency budget session in Washington and delivered his keynote address by phone to the audience of students, faculty and local advocates huddled at the South Orange, New Jersey campus.

Smith, now the author of four comprehensive anti-human trafficking laws, told the audience, “you may find it unsettling to know that when I introduced my original legislation twenty years ago, it was met with a wall of skepticism and

opposition. People thought the bold new strategy of sheltering, asylum and other protections for the victims, long jail sentences and asset confiscation for the traffickers and tough sanctions for governments that failed to meet human rights standards was a solution in search of a problem.

“We overcame the naysayers. We persisted. It was bipartisan. It took over two years to muster the votes for passage and the bill was signed into law on October 28, 2000.”

Under Smith’s four laws the United States is now leading the world in a “whole government approach funding mutually reinforcing policies and ensuring that every federal agency de-

votes significant resources and talent to end modern slavery.” Smith noted lives are being saved and cited the national human trafficking hotline which reports that since 2007, “there have been between 38-40,000 victims identified. New Jersey is consistently in the top 15 states for calls to the hotline underscoring that trafficking is a serious problem here but also that there is significant awareness of this important assistance tool,” he said.

Smith’s International Megan’s Law, which includes a notification program to forewarn countries when convicted pedophiles are intending to travel, is also working to protect child victims. Late last year, the Department of Homeland Security reported that in less than the program’s first 12 months, nearly 2,000 convicted pedophiles were denied entry by destination countries.

Named for Megan Kanka of Hamilton, who was just 7 years old when she was

kidnapped, raped, and brutally murdered in 1994 by a pedophile living across the street - unbeknownst to her family - the bill passed the House four times before finally being enacted in 2016.

Today, other countries are already considering their own versions of “International Megan’s Law” which will make it much harder for pedophiles looking to travel for sex tourism.

Smith also reported that in June 2017, the House passed his newest trafficking bill, the Frederick Douglass Trafficking Victims Prevention and Protection Reauthorization Act of 2017 - HR 2200 - which reauthorizes over $500 million over four years to put traffickers behind bars and tangibly assist trafficking survivors—as well programs to prevent human trafficking in the first place.

“Among its many provisions, the bill authorizes the Department of Health and Human Services to establish and support grant programs for age appropriate educa-

tion of students so that they can avoid becoming victims of sex and labor trafficking.

It will also educate school staff to recognize and respond to signs of trafficking,” Smith said.

Named for Frederick Douglass, the gifted orator, statesman and abolitionist, the bill will also help defund traffickers and train hotel and travel personnel on how to report and combat the crime. “Frederick Douglass is an example of a man who did what he could to fight slavery in his generation giving the gift of freedom to generations to come. This bill honors his legacy and will help significantly fight the modern day slavery of human trafficking.”

The panel was cohosted by the Seton Hall School of Diplomacy and International Relations and the Slave-Free Community Project which are both dedicated to ending this modern day slavery through education and support for victims. In addition to Smith, presentations were

given by Ingrid Johnson, New Jersey mother of a trafficking victim survivor; Kate Lee, Administrator of the New Jersey Coalition Against Human Trafficking; historian and professor Dr. Bernard Freamon; and Robert Boneberg of the SlaveFree Community Project.

Smith acknowledged the work of the other panelists and noted the particular leadership of the SHU’s School of Diplomacy and International Relations, Dean Andrea Bartoli.

“I would like to thank Dean Andrea Bartoli for hosting this important Community Conversation on Modern Slavery and for his extraordinary dedication to conflict resolution around the globe including his work with Sant’Egidio,” Smith said.

“Dean Bartoli, you inspire us all to pursue peace and reconciliation and to take seriously our Lord’s words in the Beatitudes: “Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called children of God.”

One of the goals of the festival is for filmmakers to engage in a dialogue with their audience while enjoying the scenic beach areas and all that the island has to offer.

The LIFF has also announced that submissions are open for the “Write by the Beach” program.

This program is a writers’ retreat for female screenwriters and filmmakers.

Use the scenery and atmosphere of the beach to help your creativity flow with this program!

Eligible female writers must have at least one credit as primary screenwriter on a produced short or feature film. Priority will be given to those writers currently working on feature-length screenplays in the selection process. Additional information may be required, such as writing samples, film or equivalent writing credits and a brief synopsis of your current writing project.

To submit films to the LIFF, you can enter them through Filmfreeway.com or Withoutabox.com

by Feb. 23. There is an early bird special discount for early submissions sent in by Jan. 26. The late deadline for submissions is March 16.

Orchards Resident Recognized For Artistic Ability

JACKSON – Dominic V. Angelini, a resident at The Orchards Assisted Living, in Jackson, will be recognized in the upcoming “Works of Heart” calendar which is published annually by the Health Care Association of New Jersey (HCANJ). This year Mr. Angelini submitted a piece of artwork named “Bird on Branch” which was selected alongside 11 other submissions to make up the annual Works of Heart calendar. Mr. Angelini’s artwork will be featured in the month of November in the 2018 calendar.

Angelini served in the army during WWII in the European theater. Upon his return, he married his wife, Concetta, and began a career in the construction industry building homes. Edward Marshall Boehm, the renowned sculptor, employed Angelini to build aviaries to house the exotic birds that the sculptor used for his subjects.

He worked for Boehm until retiring, supervising the porcelain plant, and doing fine woodworking projects, including exact reproductions of American antiques. Angelini’s wood replications have been featured in the White House.

Angelini opened The Church Galleries in Brick specializing in fine art, gifts, and porcelain repair. Mr. Angelini has been a resident at The Orchards for nearly two years and has been able to maintain his lifelong interest in birds, and still paints them to this day, as well as sculpting. The

By Kimberly Bosco MANCHESTER – A local Manchester resident recently made a generous contribution to the Manchester Police Department. This was not 93 year old Betty Bulbach’s first donation to the department; in fact, she made a similar donation back in 2017.

Bulbach recently donated the monetary equivalent of a Taser to the department after her same donation last year proved both successful and useful.

After reading an article about Manchester Township’s addition of 20 Taser X2 CEDs to the police department in 2017, Bulbach took it upon herself to contribute to the cause. Joined by family, Bulbach presented her second donation to the department and its officers. Bulbach donated the monetary

equivalent of the device to the officers because purchase of the device is only legal by law enforcement.

“The money will be used by our agency to purchase a fully equipped unit and its addition will directly benefit the members of the Patrol Bureau in their daily operations,” the department said. “Thank you again, Betty, for your continued support of the Manchester Township Police Department and your community.”

Tasers were added to the department last year after police solicited the council for the new device on the grounds that it would be advantageous. The addition proved just that when, only days after the purchase of the CEDs, the device was used to prevent a suicidal woman.

By Jason Allentoff MANCHESTER – A four vehicle accident in the township during a busy morning commute sends two people to the hospital with minor injuries and causes major traffic headaches for the end of the week.

Manchester Township Police say the crash happened at around 6:13 a.m. on January 19 at the intersection of Ridgeway Road and Commonwealth Boulevard.

Police say 30-year-old Michael Hudak may have fallen asleep behind the wheel before his 2013 Chevrolet E250 cargo van struck the back of a 2016 Toyota Highlander driven by 27-year-old Ashley Haszko. Haszko had been stopped for a red traffic light on Commonwealth and the

force caused her car to slam into a 2013 Hyundai Elantra, driven by 46-year-old Monique Marra.

Hudak’s van then skidded hitting a 2005 Cadillac SRX driven by 32-year-old Latoya Nicholson who was stopped in the left turn lane.

All involved were from Toms River Township. Haszko and Marra were sent to Community Medical Center with minor injuries – complaining of head and neck pain.

The road was partially shut down for an hour during the investigation. The probe continues with Manchester Township Police and the Traffic Safety Unit investigating.

Mindfully Tackling Tinnitus

A growing body of research shows mindfulness–based strategies can reduce the stress that often accompanies tinnitus, and they may even increase your emotional well-being.

The Stress of Tinnitus - Many who experience tinnitus — a ringing, buzzing, or whistling with no apparent sound source — find it insignificant. But for others, it’s downright debilitating and brings on headaches, anxiety, or even depression.

Someone with a stressful tinnitus response doesn’t simply hear a sound — they also experience tension, worry, and fear. One theory for this: The amygdala, a fear-determining region in your brain, misinterprets the tinnitus as a potential threat, keeping the body and mind in a state of constant vigilance.

The Benefits of Mindfulness - Mindfulness techniques can reduce your tinnitus stress response. Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, developer of a mindfulness based stress-reduction program used in hospitals across the U.S., describes mindfulness as “paying attention in a particular way: on purpose, in the present moment, and nonjudgmentally.” Mindfulness is a skill you can develop over time. Mindfulness-based strategies work on two levels. Consciously, mindfulness loosens the grip of anxiety and fear

caused by your tinnitus, so you no longer spend emotional energy trying to avoid it. On an unconscious level, mindfulness retrains your amygdala to see tinnitus as simply a sound, not a threat, so the fear and anxiety don’t get kick-started in the first place.

Options Abound - Popular ways to learn mindfulness techniques are: • University programs • Mindfulness-based stress-reduction programs • Cognitive behavioral therapy • Websites or smartphone apps Power in Numbers - There is no cure for tinnitus, but there are ways to minimize its effects, such as: • Sound therapy. A tone or pleasant sound masks your tinnitus.

• Habituation. Sounds matching your tinnitus are played back to you – often at levels you can’t hear – to inhibit your tinnitus.

• Hearing aids. Often, tinnitus is connected to hearing loss, so hearing aids can provide relief. Plus, many hearing aids now offer masking or habituation as well.

Combining mindfulness techniques with these other methods increases your ability to tackle tinnitus. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to reach out to Dr. Izzy & Staff at 732-8183610 or visit gardenstatehearing.com

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. Expanded Whiting Hours!

Love Them To Life: A Support Group For Mothers Of Addicts

WHITING – Mothers are on the front lines of dealing with sons or daughters who are in addiction, but most are not equipped to know what to do or not to do. They are so accustomed to nurturing our children (even as adults) that they often end up enabling addictive behavior. They also need the love and support of other moms who are going through the same deep waters of seeing their children destroy themselves and ripping out their hearts in the process.

Love Them To Life is a group designed to support, encourage, and educate mothers of addicts. The purpose of the group is to let moms know that they are not alone, to help them get healthy in their bodies, souls, and spirits, to help them understand that Jesus Christ is the only true bondage

breaker, and to equip them to deal with their sons or daughters as they struggle with addiction.

The curriculum covers topics such as enabling, codependency, denial, stealing, guilt, legal issues, how to recognize addictive behaviors, and many more.

The group meets 7 to 8:30 p.m. on Monday nights at America’s Keswick, 601 Route 530.

The curriculum is Beside Still Waters Discovering Peace in the Midst of Your Child’s Addiction.

The cost is $20.

The group is facilitated by Cherri Freeman, the founder of Love Them To Life and author of Beside Still Waters.

Breast Implants May Be Linked To Lymphoma

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Hundreds of thousands of women voluntarily opt for breast augmentation surgery. There are many reasons for that, and certainly women perceive the size and shape of their breasts to be a vital component of their femininity. Whether it’s for breast cancer reconstruction, or because you seek the “perfect” body, the addition of something foreign into your body will impact your immune system.

For sure, our country is a little obsessed with bust size. I wonder if most women would opt for it, if they knew they were risking perfect health, and possibly risking their life? I’m referring to women who do this for cosmetic purposes only.

Many women who have undergone breast augmentation suffer in vague ways and get sick. They may not even relate their new problems to their breast implants, or they might deny it. For example, suddenly you feel fatigued, or get migraines or get frequent infections, depression, memory loss, joint pain, panic attacks, personality changes, Reynaud’s disease (fingers turning white), cognitive problems, brain fog, autoimmune disorders and new allergies. These may be symptoms that correlate with breast implant illness.

These new symptoms will get ‘treated’ with a handful of prescriptions. Within a few years, you’re heavily medicated. Very few physicians will link your “breast implant illness” to the root of your current symptoms.

The health problems that you suffer with could very well resolve themselves if you remove the implants. I know you don’t want

to hear this, but if something I just said “clicked” for you, and maybe you cried, it may be because I just figured out the problem you’ve had for years now.

I’ve seen this exact situation with two friends from Florida, both had implants for more than 20 years, and when both ladies surgically removed them, their health improved dramatically within a year! If you’d like more details, I have them. I’ll send you a more comprehensive version of this article if you sign up for my free newsletter at suzycohen.com.

New research from the Netherlands was just published in this month’s JAMA Oncology and it was very disheartening. Women with breast implants have a higher risk of developing a rare type of non-Hodgkins lymphoma.

It’s called ALCL, which stands for Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma. This is not breast cancer; it’s an immune system cancer.

The Netherland study found out that women with ALCL were about 421 times more likely to have breast implants than women with other lymphomas in their breast.

If you’re deciding whether or not to get implants, my advice is: don’t. It’s not because of the Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma risk, it’s more about the fact that your body isn’t equipped to deal with two foreign sacs in it, and at some point, the oxidative stress and immune dysfunction that results will never be worth it.

If you could see your life in a crystal ball 20 years from now, see it with implants and see it without them. That may sway your decision.

PROPERTIES SAVED FROM DEVELOPMENT

By Chris Lundy OCEAN COUNTY – Four properties were saved from development by various programs within the county and state government.

The fi rst acquisition was a donation of approximately 9 acres from Barnegat Township. The land is described as Block

95, Lots 1.01, 1.02 and 3, along Pancoast Road.

The surrounding land had been previously purchased by the county, and this was an outlying spot, Councilman John Bartlett said. The land was donated to the county by the town, and it didn’t cost anything.

The fi rst purchase is along 7th Street in

Waretown. It’s described as Block 225, Lot 5. It’s a small property, only 4/10 of an acre, he said. This is why the price was $10,000 (plus $315 for property tax adjustments).

The land will be purchased through money generated by the Ocean County Natural Lands Trust Fund, which is supported by a county-wide referendum held 21 years

ago where people voted to pay 1.2 cents per $100 of their assessed valuation into a fund for such purchases. Like many of the Natural Lands Trust purchases, this particular one was adjacent to other protected land.

Another tract is in Plumsted. It is about 30.3 acres adjacent to Emery’s Farm. This is described as Block 43, Lots 34, 36, 39 and 42-44. It is between lands owned by Plumsted Township and lands owned by Ocean County, he said. There are 760 protected acres in the area.

It will cost the county an amount not to exceed $200,000, plus $600 for property tax adjustment.

During the purchasing process, the Ocean County Trust for Public Lands purchases seem piecemeal when taken individually, he said. However, over the course of years, much more of the map is made up of protected land in a contiguous area.

The last purchase isn’t really land, but the development rights of a piece of land, he said. This is the case when it comes to the State Farmland Preservation Program. The farm will continue to operate as a farm. By purchasing the legal right to develop that land, it will be a farm indefi nitely. Development is contained, needed farmland is preserved, and the property owner is made whole so they don’t have to profit off their land by selling it.

The land is described as Block 79, Lot 25.

It’s adjacent to existing farmland and Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst.

The cost of purchasing the development rights is $155,100, pending a land survey, but after the state’s contribution, it will likely cost the county about $62,000, he said.

MERKEL CELL CARCINOMA

M

erkel cell carcinoma is also called neuroendocrine carcinoma of the skin. It tends to grow fast and to spread quickly to other parts of your body.

SYMPTOMS

The first sign of Merkel cell carcinoma is a fastgrowing, painless red, blue or purple nodule on your skin, most commonly seen on the face, scalp or neck.

WHEN TO SEE A HEALTH CARE PROVIDER

If you notice a mole, freckle or bump that is changing in size, shape or color, growing rapidly, or bleeding easily after minor trauma, such as washing your skin or shaving, make an appointment with your healthcare provider.

RISK FACTORS Factors that may increase risk of Merkel cell carcinoma include:

Beautiful Skin at Any Age Medical Dermatology (Pediatric & Adult): • Abnormal Moles Comprehensive Skin Cancer • Pre-cancer Growths • Skin Cancer Screenings Available - Call Today!

• Pimples • Scars • Viral & Fungal Infections • Itchy Flaky Scalp/Face • Eczema • Cracked Lips & Dry Skin • Itching, Sunburns & Blisters • Diaper Rash & Allergic Reactions • Rosacea • Skin Tags • Benign Growths...and and many others!

Renata Flaks, DNP 707 Main Street • Toms River 732-244-2666 www.qualityderm.com Open Monday - Friday

QUALITY DERMATOLOGY Accepting Most Insurance Plans Accepting New Patients Same Day Emergency Appointments

• Excessive exposure to sun or tanning beds.

• A weakened immune system including those with HIV infection, those taking drugs that suppress the immune response or those with chronic leukemia.

• History of other skin cancers such as basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma.

• Increasing age. This cancer is most common in people older than age 50, though it can occur at any age.

• Light skin color. Merkel cell carcinoma usually arises in people who have light-colored skin.

COMPLICATIONS

Even with treatment, Merkel cell carcinoma commonly spreads (metastasizes) beyond the skin. Merkel cell carcinoma tends to travel first to nearby lymph nodes. Later it may spread to your brain, bones, liver or lungs, where it can interfere with the functioning of these organs. Cancer that has metastasized is more dicult to treat and can be fatal.

Injured At Work?!

Know Your Rights To Critical Benefits!

Robert C. Shea Esq.

By Michael J. Deem, Esq, of R.C. Shea and Associates

You have a right to a safe and healthful workplace. If you have suffered an injury on the job, make sure you know what kind of benefits you might receive under workers’ compensation coverage.

In some instances, an aggressive compensation carrier may deny an injured worker’s legitimate workers’ compensation claims.

An insurer can claim you have not been injured, or that the injury you have suffered is not serious enough to qualify for workers’ compensation benefits. If this is the case, you may stand to lose critical benefits.

Most important among these critical benefits is the right to medical treatment. Medical benefits are mandated by the New Jersey Worker’s Compensation Act, and require the employer to furnish the injured worker with medical, surgical, and other treatment as are necessary “to cure and relieve the worker of the effects of the injury and to restore the functions of the injured member or organ” if possible. Moreover, in those instances where the employer has refused or neglected to provide medical treatment in accordance with the provisions of the Workers’ Compensation Act, the employer will be held responsible for the cost of treatment; even if the employee receives treatment prior to the carrier’s authorization.

Further, it is important to note another

critical benefit of the Michael J. Deem Workers Compensation Act. This benefit protects employees from collections law suits when the employee obtains medical treatment that has been wrongfully or negligently withheld by an employer. This benefit, was upheld by the New Jersey Appellate Court in Kinley Physical Therapy Services, Inc. v. Kramer, and unequivocally states that a medical service provider is prohibited from filing an action against the employee until a determination has been made by the Division of Workers’ Compensation. The Court reasoned that a medical provider is normally not permitted to pursue collection actions in court until it resolves all administrative remedies, thus, the employee must be shielded from all actions by the medical provider until the Court determines whether or not the employer is responsible for the cost of medical care.

If you feel your legitimate benefits have been denied and you live in the New Jersey, our workers compensation lawyers would like to talk to you to see if we can assist you with your case. Please call for a free consultation.

Facebook Chat Leads To Sexual Assault

By Kimberly Bosco STAFFORD – Police are urging parents to monitor their children’s online activity after charging a Bayville man with the sexual assault of a 12-year old girl in Stafford Township.

Ocean County Prosecutor Joseph D. Coronato and Stafford Township Police Chief Thomas Dellane announced that 19-year old Joseph Barden of Bayville has been arrested on charges of Aggravated Sexual Assault, Sexual Assault, and Endangering the Welfare of a Child.

The investigation into the matter began on Jan. 19 when reports were made to the Stafford Township police that the 12-year old girl was assaulted. The investigation found that Barden and the girl had a correspondence via cell phone and Facebook over the course of a few weeks, where they would chat and exchange photos. Barden then visited the girl’s home in Stafford, climbed through her window, and allegedly sexually assaulted her on Jan. 19.

The arrest was made by Stafford Township Police Det. Levi McVey and Ocean County Prosecutor’s Special Victims Unit Det. Stephanie Bayha on Jan. 20. OCPO High Tech Crime Unit Det. Raymond Coles and

Barden has since been transported to the Ocean County Jail where he will be detained pending a court appearance.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast

For the week of january 27 - february 2

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr. 19): Plan to exercise poise. A significant other might surprise you with a touch of the exotic or a friend may present a sudden change of plans. In the week ahead work behind the scenes to enhance your reputation.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Drift along with the crowd as a sightseer. The urge to be outrageous and shocking will fade as you get back into regular routines. As this week unfolds you may want to be pampered but practical at the same time.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Practice makes perfect. Put extra effort into fulfilling existing obligations in the week to come. Pass up invitations to community events so that there is more time to tend to family based goals and activities.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): The road to pennilessness is paved with good intentions.

Follow through on financial commitments and don’t waste your resources by overpaying for luxury items. You can be creative without being extravagant.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Push the envelope not the paperwork. You may prefer to be an entrepreneur rather than a traditionalist. If you show you know “what’s what” others will quickly develop confidence in your abilities in the week ahead.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Play by the rules. Problems that appear may reflect a lack of foresight in the past. Take pains to make corrections immediately so that you won’t be held accountable in the future. Focus on joint financial security.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Achieving goals should be at the top of your list in the week ahead.

You are sometimes so challenged by unexpected expenses and financial outlays that you forget the real reason you have so much overhead.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Going overboard by showering someone with presents might do your heart good, but won’t do much for your wallet. In the week to come you must try to be sensible when dealing with business and financial affairs.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You may brim with ideas, but someone may dampen your ardor by asking detailed questions. Your creative urges could be bogged down when you must deal with practical considerations in the week ahead.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Focus on following advice obtained from partners and elders in the week ahead. Any small impulsive changes you make now could affect your finances or your relationships in an unexpected manner.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Too much of a good thing can be good for you. Money may slip through your fingers in generous amounts, but for some reason the expenditures will prove to be for a good cause. Pamper a partner this week.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Produce the product. You could be riding high on a wave of popularity this week, but people may be unwilling to take your promises at face value. Concentrate on important projects while energy levels are high.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen Sunday Brunch Day: Cap OffYourWinter WeekendsWith Comforting SourdoughWaffles

By Wolfgang Puck

So many people think of sourdough as an all-American - or at least North American - phenomenon. Credit that to the fact that sourdough starters (wild yeast cultures regularly fed and nurtured to keep available for leavening bread) were mainstays not only of pioneering life but also among the miners who made sourdough the reliable daily bread in San Francisco during the 1849 California Gold Rush era; plus, other miners came to be known as “sourdoughs” during the Klondike Gold Rush in Canada during the late 1890s.

In reality, though, sourdough is much older and more global. For many centuries, all yeast-leavened bread was sourdough, stretching back to ancient Egypt and up to the widespread development of commercial yeasts in the early 20th century. Today, sourdough cultures are still nurtured in many traditional homes, and it’s finding new enthusiasts among artisanal bakers and home bread makers alike.

When I first visited San Francisco many years ago, I was amused when I was asked if I ever had anything like their beloved sourdough bread. Of course I had, having grown up in Austria eating rustic sourdough. I love baking with sourdough starters myself and usually offer some form of sourdough bread in my restaurants.

So today, I would love to offer you a taste of sourdough to enjoy in your own kitchen. But I’ll keep it simple with a recipe that provides the pleasures of real, tangy sourdough flavor without need for the mixing, kneading and rising traditional loaves require.

How is that possible? My sourdough waffles make it easy.

Waffles, like pancakes made from similar batters, are in fact a simple form of bread known as a quick bread, primarily leavened by the carbon dioxide gas released instantly when baking powder - one of the recipe’s dry ingredients - comes in contact with the batter’s liquid. But the recipe I share here gets extra lightness and flavor from a simply made sourdough starter.

Once your waffle batter is ready, use whatever regular or Belgian-style waffle iron you have, following the manufacturer’s instructions. Cook them until deep golden-brown, and - straight to your kitchen - you’ll experience your own Gold Rush!

SOUR DOUGH WAFFLES WITH FRUIT SYRUP Makes 5 8-inch (20-cm) waffles

1 1/2 cups (375 mL) sourdough starter for waffles (recipe follows) 1/2 cup (125 mL) nonfat milk 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted 1 large egg 1 cup (250 mL) all-purpose flour 2 tablespoons sugar 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt Nonstick cooking spray Fruit Syrup (recipe follows) In a large mixing bowl, combine the starter, milk, melted butter, and egg. Stir well.

In a smaller bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add these dry ingredients to the starter mixture, and stir until well combined. Leave, covered, at warm room temperature until bubbles begin to form, about 30 minutes.

Heat a waffle iron and coat lightly but evenly with nonstick spray. Using a 4-ounce (125 mL) ladle, pour batter evenly into the waffle iron and cook until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Serve immediately with a drizzle of fruit syrup.

S OU R D OUG H STA RT E R F O R WAFFLES Makes about 4 cups (1 L) 3 cups (750 mL) all-purpose flour 2 cups (500 mL) nonfat milk 1 cup (250 mL) plain yogurt with live cultures 1 small potato, peeled and finely grated In a medium bowl, stir together all the ingredients until thoroughly combined.

Cover with a clean kitchen towel and leave at warm room temperature until the batter begins to bubble and develops a somewhat pleasant sour smell, about 24 hours.

Transfer the starter to a covered container, and store in the refrigerator for at least three days before using.

FRUIT SYRUP Makes about 1 1/3 cups (335 mL) 1 cup (250 mL) pure maple syrup 1/3 cup (85 mL) small blueberries, sliced strawberries or other fresh fruit 2 teaspoons grated orange zest Put the syrup, fruit and orange zest in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the syrup and fruit are warm, 5 to 7 minutes. Serve immediately.
