By Jennifer Peacock MANCHESTER – A demographic study completed for the Manchester Township Board of Education is of interest to the township, as well as Hovsons, the group responsible for the Heritage Minerals redevelopment.

The study was done in February by Statistical Forecasting LLC, a Boston-area based company that has completed such studies for hundreds of

There are five buildings projects going on in town right now: Presidential Gardens, MDG project on 571, Autumn Ridge, continued development in Pine Lake Park, and of course the proposed Heritage Minerals redevelopment.

The study focused on only the next five years of enrollment trends, from the 2018-19 school year to 2022-23 year, and Heritage Minerals,

districts, including many in the New York/New Jersey metro region.

“This study was extremely helpful in getting a better grasp on Manchester’s ability to grow with and without having any impact on our classroom capacity,” Mayor Kenneth T. Palmer told The Manchester Times. “I appreciate and applaud Superintendent (David) Trethaway and the School Board’s initiative in completing the study.”

By Chris Lundy BERKELEY – The Ocean County Fair, in its 71st year, still continues to amaze.

Rides, games, animals, and other excitement drew large crowds to the fair grounds.

It was scheduled for July 11 through July 15 at Robert J. Miller Airpark, Route 530 in Berkeley.

The 4-H continued to be a huge part of the fair. Families showed off the goats, ducks, rabbits, and other animals that they cared for in the months and years leading up to the fair. Many were brought out by the family members and people were allowed to pet them (as long as they cleaned their hands).

Some could also get their picture taken with a goat for a $1 donation to charity.

The 4-H is more than just animal raising, though. Kids showed (Fair - See Page 4)

WOW!

By Jennifer Peacock veryone old enough can remember walking into a post office and seeing those black-and-white, often deranged-looking eyes staring down at us from FBI Most Wanted posters. You could also see mug shots of wanted criminals flash across the TV screen or stare up from the pile of daily newspapers.

As those audiences and consumers diminish, the brick and mortar walls or black dots and white spaces that make newsprint have been for some time giving way to virtual walls of zeroes and ones.

Today, law enforcement agencies can use those IRL spaces but they can also speak directly to the public through Facebook pages, Twitter feeds and Instagram stories.

It’s both cheap and effective.

A recent CNN.com report said that of those agencies that use social media, four out of 5 law enforcement officials use those connections to investigate crimes and collect data.

“It’s a home run for us,” Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office spokesman Al Della Fave told Jersey Shore Online. Some days, his office’s Facebook posts reach 100,000 unique users. (You can be one of them by following facebook.com/OCProsecutor/) “What more could you ask for?”

Anyone who belongs to a local Facebook group knows all too well how people complain about speeding cars, a code enforcement visit, or an unkempt yard. The human need to gossip and belong to a group is too big a pull for people to resist, although there are always a few naysaying curmudgeons (Police - See Page 8)

A barker would challenge people to guess their age.

The Sheriff’s Department had an inflatable device that released cool mist. On Thursday, the weather was sunny without being too warm, though. A quick flash of rain had hit in the mid-afternoon, hours before the fair opened.

That was just enough rain to hold the dust down, said John Horning, the yard manager.

It took the edge off the heat and actually made the rest of the evening quite enjoyable.

“When the weather is good, we do good,” he said. Last year, he recalled losing at least one day to rain. That really hurts an outside activity that is so dependent on the weather.

People weaved through the 4-H tents, and made their way to tents set up by county offices as well as vendors. Shops sold candles, clothes, and jewelry.

Popcorn, funnel cake, empanadas, and other treats were for sale, or people could cool off with root beer and Italian ice.

if it fi nally gets the green light from all the entities that must give their blessing, will not even start groundbreaking in that five-year span.

Enrollment numbers continue a downward trend with low birth counts one contributing factor. While only Whiting School is at capacity, the other schools have “surplus seating” into the 202223 projections, even including students gained in high school from Lakehurst Elementary School, a K-8 district.

In total, 2,065 public school children (K-12) are projected to be generated from the new housing developments. Due to the unavailability of the bedroom distributions for many of the developments and the uncertainty of whether the proposed residential developments will get constructed, as well as the timeline of occupation, the baseline enrollment projections were

not adjusted for the additional children anticipated from the new housing developments. In addition, Heritage Minerals Tract, if constructed, would likely only begin construction in five years with occupation to follow later, which is outside of the enrollment projection timeframe of five years, Richard S. Grip, Ed.D., of Statistical Forecasting, said.

The Heritage Minerals redevelopment is back yet again under review by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection. The project seeks to build 4,000 homes on a buildable 1,000 acres, although no one involved believes that number of homes will be approved. Of those homes, 2,300 single-family units and 290 affordable housing units are proposed.

The remaining 1,400 units are proposed age-restricted and wouldn’t impact the school district.

The township will pay $5,000 to the school district out of a Hovsons escrow account for the study.

Police:

Continued From Page 1 in the mix, and the lurkers who read everything but say nothing.

“You’ve already got a great amount of connectivity, and people do pick up the phone if they see somebody they know. They’ll do it in a heartbeat. We found that out,” Della Fave said. Five years ago, there was no Facebook page for the Prosecutor’s Office. Today, that page has close to 22,000 followers, many of whom share information that he posts to that page. Local media outlets (including this one) follow that page, and rush to rewrite and post their own take on press releases from his office, to share far and wide.

“It keeps growing. We love it that it helps us engage the public,” Della Fave said.

Manchester Township Police Department has Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts.

Those are curated by Officer Joseph Fastige.

“Posts are primarily made to either request assistance from the public for various investigations, alert the public about any recent incidents, and let the public know of any upcoming traffic enforcement details. I also use social media to ‘share’ information from other departments,” Fastige wrote in an email to Jersey Shore Online. “I also found that it does not hurt to post funny police related memes or photographs of community landmarks to give people a break from the seriousness that usually comes with police work. The best thing we can do is be transparent with the community we serve and social media is the best way to achieve that goal.”

For instance, in their neighboring department

in Lakehurst, that borough’s police foundation could have simply asked people to attend its annual golf outing, the foundation’s single fundraiser for the year. Instead, the department poked at fun at Sgt. Matt Kline’s two left hands.

“If you want to see Sergeant Kline attempt to play some golf, come on out to the Lakehurst Police Foundation’s annual golf outing.

Maybe bring a helmet and some protective gear as well. We’ve seen him try to hit the ball and let’s just say, he thinks he’s better then he really is...” #KlineCantGolf It’s obvious the technology has changed the speed with which everyone can share information, police not excluded.

“We are able to get information out faster, which means we’re are solving cases faster,” Fastige said. Smart phones keep their users connected throughout the day. “The second we post something regarding an investigation or incident, everyone who follows our social media accounts will know about it and starts spreading the word. This means that we are sharing more information now than we ever had in the past.”

For instance, the Toms River Police Department posted a photo of a man burglarizing a vehicle near Walnut Street. At press time, that post was shared from that Facebook page 753 times, and possibly hundreds more by local news outlets that write about and share that story on their web and social media pages, as well as groups on Facebook.

Barnegat Police Chief Keith Germain said that they’ve used social media to identify people or vehicles more than 25 times since they started to do it in 2011. They would post information and ask for the public’s help in cases of burglar-

ies and thefts, as well as more serious crimes.

“Our social media following - especially Facebook - has allowed us to directly and efficiently communicate with our service population,” he said. “We now have nearly 10,000 likes on Facebook. It is not unusual for one of our posts to reach 10,000-20,000 people.”

But the department uses social media in other ways, too, for example, when they wanted to hire new officers.

“By boosting our post to New Jersey residents between the ages of 18-35 with an interest in law enforcement, we were able to generate the most applications we’ve ever received as well as the highest number of applicants from underrepresented demographics in the available workforce,” he said. “This is critically important as we continue to pursue our goal of having a police department that is representative of our available workforce.”

Law enforcement can work actively or passively with other groups that don’t fall into traditional media. While Lakehurst and Manchester police departments said they don’t actively work with other groups to share information, the prosecutor’s office does see an ally in pages like Ocean County Scanner News (ocscanner.news), which has more than 16,000 followers on Facebook.

That page, among others, recently shared another group of photos, this time two women wanted in a theft by Little Egg Harbor Police. OCSN commentary is sometimes, ah, colorful, but the page keeps its followers abreast of emergency and police activity and does share law enforcement information.

Dave Lansing, who with several other assistants runs OCSN, is on Della Fave’s

media contact list.

“The public needs to see the value in all this social media sharing,” Lansing told Jersey Shore Online. Lansing’s page not only shares crime-related information, but practical information as well. His team was the first to report the standoff in South Toms River on May 31. They reported in real time on their Facebook thread what was being reported via scanners before they went silent, but also let their followers know about evacuations and road closings around the area.

“Absolutely, we work with them,” Della Fave said.

Of course, it’s not all positive. There are down sides to being on social media. One of them, either because of necessity or circumstances, is that all the facts aren’t shared by law enforcement when sharing with the public. Some of that only comes to light in court that the general public won’t have access to, Della Fave said.

“Opinions might be clouded by that initial post,” Della Fave said. “But, you know, we try our best, as the prosecutor’s office especially, to be impartial and leave it up in the air and always put that disclaimer that ‘innocent until proven guilty.’”

And then there are the comments.

“We have found that a potential downside when posting on social media are the negative users’ comments underneath our posts.

With the First Amendment, we cannot delete any comments, even if they are negative, that are posted on our social media accounts,” Fastige said. “The negative comments can sometimes distract from the initial goal of the post, whether it’s helping us look for a missing person or solving a crime.”

Amendments To Combat Anti-Semitism Adopted By International Assembly From The Desk Of

Congressman

Chris Smith BERLIN – Amendments sponsored by Rep. Chris Smith (R-4th) that condemn increasing incidents of anti-Semitism, and call on countries to clearly define anti-Semitism and more effectively prosecute hate crimes, were adopted by an international assembly of lawmakers.

“Jewish communities and their members are fearful of verbal harassment and physical attacks. I call on participating States to adopt the working definition of anti-Semitism at the upcoming

Milan Ministerial Council in December,” Smith said.

Smith, in his leadership role as co-chair of the U.S. Helsinki Commission, headed the U.S. delegation of 13 Members of Congress to the 2018 Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe Parliamentary Assembly (OSCE-PA) in Berlin.

More than 300 parliamentarians from 57 member countries in North America, Europe, and Asia attended the assembly, to discuss human rights, economic and security issues and adopt resolutions

to help shape and influence national and international policies on these matters. The countries collectively represent over one billion people.

Smith’s two amendments on anti-Semitism both emphasize the continuing problem of anti-Semitic threats and violence in OSCE member countries, and call on member countries to adopt the working definition of anti-Semitism at the Milan Ministerial Council in December.

The “working definition” of anti-Semitism was adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance in 2016, of which the U.S. is one of 31 member countries.

It states that “Antisemitism is a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews. Rhetorical and physical manifes-

tations of antisemitism are directed toward Jewish or non-Jewish individuals and/ or their property, toward Jewish community institutions and religious facilities.”

Smith noted in his statement during the debate that “A clear definition of anti-Semitism enables a country’s judiciary and law enforcement to more effectively identify and prosecute threats and acts of violence against Jewish communities.” In the U.S., at a March 22, 2017 Congressional hearing that Smith chaired on “Anti-Semitism Across Borders,” Rabbi Andy Baker, the Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office on Combating Anti-Semitism and Director of International Jewish Affairs for the American Jewish Committee, testified that without the guidance

of a working definition of anti-Semitism, “we have seen how real attacks on Jewish targets are still dismissed as politically-motivated incidents.”

Smith is the Co-Chair of the Bipartisan Congressional Taskforce for Combating Anti-Semitism. In Congress, he authored the provisions of the Global Anti-Semitism Review Act of 2004 that created the position of Special Envoy and the Office to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism within the U.S. State Department, and introduced the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism Act (H.R. 1911) to elevate and strengthen the position of the Envoy; the bill passed out of the House Foreign Affairs Committee in May. At a May hearing of the House Foreign Affairs Com-

Investors Meet On How To Reinvigorate Areas Of Ocean And Monmouth From The Desk Of Governor Phil Murphy NEWARK – Over 200 investors, economic developers and business and community leaders joined Governor Phil Murphy and U.S. Senator Cory Booker for an Investors Symposium on the new federal Economic Opportunity Zone Program. The event, hosted by Choose New Jersey at Rutgers University – Newark, is the first of many forums to ensure the State’s business community is aware of the new and innovative tools available to spur investment in the Garden State.

Opportunity Zones were sections of land chosen based on census data. They were located throughout the

state. Locally, they were chosen in Berkeley, Manchester, Lakewood, Freehold, Neptune, Asbury Park and Long Branch.

“Creating a stronger, fairer New Jersey begins with expanding oppor t u nit y equally across all communities,” said Governor Phil Murphy. “The Opportunity Zone Program will be a vital resource in stimulating long-term economic growth and investment in cities and towns that need it most, and more importantly, in generating economic opportunities for our residents.”

“Every community should have access to the resources needed to realize its

full entrepreneurial potential,” said U.S. Senator Cory Booker. “But barriers stand between too many of our communities and the capital needed to generate economic growth and opportunity.”

In December 2017, legislation authored by U.S. Senators Cory A. Booker (D-NJ) and Tim Scott (RSC) was passed into law after being incorporated into the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The “Opportunity Zones Program” is designed to spur economic development and job creation in designated Opportunity Zones.

Oppor t unit y Zones are low-income census tracts nominated by governors and certified by the U.S. Department of the Treasury allowing investors to direct capital into new projects and enterprises in exchange for certain federal capital gains tax advantages.

Governor Phil Murphy worked directly with U.S. Senator Cory Booker’s office, convened meetings and round tables with mayors throughout the state to receive feedback and input, and met with the New Jersey Congressional delegation to ensure a fair and transparent selection process. New Jersey Opportunity Zones are located in 75 municipalities, representing every county.

The Opportunity Zone initiative will be housed at the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs.

“Innovative new tools like the Opportunity Zone Program are the catalysts New Jersey needs to bring new investment to our communities in need,” said Jose Lozano, President and CEO of Choose New Jersey.

Opportunity Funds are private sector investment vehicles that invest at least 90 percent of their capital in

Opportunity Zones. Opportunity Funds provide investors the chance to put that capital to work rebuilding the nation’s low-income rural and urban communities.

Investment Incentives include: A temporary tax deferral for capital gains reinvested in an Opportunity Fund.

The deferred gain must be recognized on the earlier of the date on which the opportunity zone investment is sold or December 31, 2026.

A step-up in basis for capital gains reinvested in an Opportunity Fund. The basis of the original investment is increased by 10 percent if the investment in the qualified opportunity zone fund is held by the taxpayer for at least 5 years, and by an additional 5 percent if held for at least 7 years, excluding up to 15 percent of the original gain from taxation.

A per manent exclusion

mittee, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo promised Rep. Smith that he would move quickly to appoint a new Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism after Smith asked him to act to fill the vacant position.

Also at the OSCE-PA, Smith’s comprehensive resolution to create trafficking-free communities was adopted by the assembly.

It would encourage the 57 member countries to draw upon effective best practices for fighting trafficking developed in the U.S., including the creation of joint task forces, a unified trafficking hotline throughout Europe, and the training of employees who are likely to be in contact with trafficking victims to recognize possible trafficking cases and respond appropriately.

from taxable income of capital gains from the sale or exchange of an investment in a qualified opportunity zone fund, if the investment is held for at least 10 years.

(Note: this exclusion applies to the gains accrued from an investment in an Opportunity Fund, not the original gains).

The forum, moderated by Steve Adubato, included a panel of experts, including Margaret Anadu, Managing Director and Head of Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group; Christopher A. Coes, Vice President for Real Estate Policy and External Affairs, Smart Growth America and Director, LOCUS: Responsible Real Estate Developers and Investors; Steve Glickman, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Economic Innovation Group, and Evan S.

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY Letters To The Editor

E DITORIAL You Can Tell A Person’s Worth

By How They Drive I’ve noticed something recently, that nice people tend to be better drivers.

They are more likely to let someone pull in front of them. More likely to be cautious. More likely to drive slowly in residential areas. More likely to expect that there are kids at play.

The opposite is also true.

Aggressive people drive aggressively. Passive aggressive people are the worst – they’ll cut you off in a gentle motion, pretending not to even notice you.

People who multitask too much are checking their texts – or even playing a game – on their phones.

What are these people like once they step out of their car? Probably the same.

Look at the people who

are calm behind the wheel.

They’re not in a hurry.

They are not distracted.

Drivers who see the big picture are much safer. They see all the cars and prepare ahead for where everyone’s headed.

They’re not throwing trash out the window. They also expect that there are a few aggressive drivers and nutjobs on the road. They hope for the best and expect the worst.

So, if you’re always in a rush, speeding down the road and cutting people off, while talking on the phone and tossing cigarettes out the window, what does that say about you?

Tips On Being A Safe Driver I know summer is almost over and I should have written about this in June. Better late than never.

There was an interesting article in USA Today titled “Bike deaths spike in summer.” Although this was an article about motorcycle deaths, it applies to bicycles and other smaller vehicles as well.

“There are 300,000 motorcycle endorsements in NJ, and countless folks riding around with no endorsement.” That’s a lot of motorcycles. Now, add the number of bicycles, scooters and here, in the 55 plus communities, we can add a few motorized wheelchairs and walkers. That’s an awful lot of moving things on the road that happen to be smaller than our cars. If you drive a big car or an SUV they may be even harder to see.

Those of you who know me, know I ride a motorcycle. That makes me a little more aware of the traffic that’s bigger than me. Look for me. And what about bicycles? And those pesky pedestrians…they hardly make a decent speed bump if we run them over. I taught for the Motorcycle Safety Foundation. Safety is in their name and it was always my biggest concern. It still is. Ask anyone on my EMS Squad. I am always saying that the first rule of being a first responder is Safety! Safety! Safety! I can’t say it enough. Be safe yourself and then watch out for others.

Most personal accidents occur in the home and many road accidents occur around the corner, maybe in your driveway. Our EMS has responded to many at stop signs, and even the ones in driveways and on front lawns. Take safety seriously. We don’t have anywhere to go that can’t wait a few extra minutes.

On the road, we tend to see only things our size or bigger.

So, “Officer, I never saw the bike (or pedestrian).” is a very common response after a car hits a bike (or pedestrian).

Many of these “non-sightings” account for the 81 motorcyclists’ deaths in NJ occurring in 2017. 49 of those happened

Letters To toThe Editor between June and Septemcome to the July 26 Farmers for many years. ber. Summer brings out the fair weather drivers and an increase in traffic to our beautiful Jersey shores. It is more congested and as our patience grows shorter, we become less observant. More people walk in the summer as well. Be on the lookout for things smaller than your car. It may be your neighbor. If you are a walker, a bicyclist, a motorcyclist or ride in anything smaller than a car, be on the lookout for your own safety. Although the car driver is legally at “fault” if he/she hits you, you are responsible for your own safety as well… you are the one who is injured or dead. Watch where you are walking. Parking lots can be dangerous. No matter what you drive or ride or where you walk be observant and courteous.

The craziest thing happens to me is when I drive a car, I find all smaller things are “stupid” like the person in a parking lot who comes out of my blind spot and keeps walking past the back of my car as I’m backing out. And when I’m walking that “stupid” car driver didn’t stop backing out of a parking spot as I’m walking behind his car. Isn’t it so funny how it all seems to makes sense? It is so clearly the other person’s fault, when you aren’t the other guy.

Please be careful, observant and courteous.

We need more volunteers.

There is no free EMS without volunteers. Consider joining one of our EMS squads for a year or 2, maybe 5. No experience necessary! You’ll be CPR certified, regular training, get a uniform, experience, and new friends. HCBEMS needs you.

Fire Inspections Changing For Farms There is much concern about the fire inspections scheduled by the township Fire Chief Robert Lewis.

As chairwoman of the Howell Farmers Advisory Committee, I have invited Chief Lewis

Advisory Meeting at 7:30 to explain to the farmers about the situation.

I sat down with Chief Lewis in a meeting and he went over some details with me about the inspections. I think it is better for everyone to come to the meeting, listen to what Chief Lewis has to say and ask their questions directly.

Basically, what he told me is that he and his assistants will be checking for: • Fire extinguisher present and with a current date of operational use. The fire extinguishers have to be available for use in a 75-foot radius of where a fire may break out.

If a building is 100 feet long, it would need 2 fire extinguishers.

• Exit lights operating if the buildings were built after 1977. Up to code.

• Any electrical issues, use of extension cords, and or unsafe situations.

• Hay storage with adequate circulation and proper storage.

The fee for the inspection will be $75 for the first building and Chief Lewis is requesting from the mayor and council a reduction to $25 for each additional building.

The chief told me that this inspection has become a statewide mandate as a result of a death of a worker living in an illegal dwelling on a farm in south Jersey.

Please come to the Farmers Advisory meeting and hear what Chief Lewis has to say and ask questions as well.

Elaine Taylor Howell Township Farmers Advisory Chairwoman

Jackson Doesn’t Need “Junk Yard” I was an observer at a recent Zoning Board meeting where a case was being heard regarding a proposed recycling site that would impact residents on Wright-Debow Road. My son presently owns a home off of this road and my husband and I lived close by in Millstone Township for 25 years and in Jackson Township prior to that

I heard my son speak passionately, as well as other residents on his block, about the many concerns they had with regard to environmental issues, truck and road safety issues, noise levels and other concerns that were apparent since this huge project of 48 acres would be turned into a “junk yard.”

All trees would be cut down and heavy equipment would be stored on this property as well as taken apart to sell off for parts. All that’s involved in draining oil and crushing metal using special machines and claws to compact these vehicles was presented as testimony by the company and their representatives. They refer to it as a “recycling center” which really is another term for a “junk yard.”

Whether you believe that this business would be good for Jackson Township or not, is certainly up for debate.

What I found most shocking was how the Zoning Board chairman and others treated the hard-working, tax paying residents of Jackson as if they were a nuisance and any worries that they had about their neighborhood and their home investments were inconsequential.

They listened attentively for hours to A & A Truck Parts’ presentation but only gave 5 minutes to residents and in many cases cut them off with snide remarks and limiting their inquiries to specific aspects of the project.

My husband was a previous member and chairman of the Jackson Zoning Board.

I remember him telling me that their job was to make certain that whatever business or project that wanted to come to Jackson had to be for the good and welfare of its citizens.

There are many Jackson citizens who are wondering why this township needs or wants another “junk yard?” How can we justify cutting down trees on 48 acres of property and destroying the quality of life of all the residents who live nearby and will be impacted by such a project?

AROUND THE JERSEY SHORE World Hepatitis Day: Officials Urge Testing

By Kimberly Bosco OCEAN COUNTY – Ocean County recognizes World Hepatitis Day on July 28 this year; acknowledging the disease that affects approximately 4.4 million Americans right now, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Hepatitis is an inflammatory condition of the liver, commonly caused by a viral infection.

Those 4.4 million Americans affected have either hepatitis B or C. Some others don’t even know that they have hepatitis. Ocean County officials remind residents that it is important to get tested if you are concerned about this disease.

“Testing, which starts with a doctor’s exam and often a simple blood test, has the potential to save many lives,” said Freeholder Director Gerry P. Little. “Accordingly, the Ocean County Health Department offers free hepatitis C testing and also provides clinic services for hepatitis B to insure our Ocean County residents have the resources to confront this disease.”

Little also noted that chronic hepatitis B or C can lead to more serious health problems and could put you at risk for chronic liver disease, cirrhosis and liver cancer.

“Treatment options vary depending on which type of hepatitis you have. You can prevent some forms of hepatitis through immuniza-

tions and lifestyle precautions,” said Ocean County Health Department Public Health Coordinator Daniel E. Regenye.

Hepatitis B is transmitted through contact with infectious body fluids containing the hepatitis B virus (HBV). You can contract this disease through injecting drugs, having intercourse or sharing razors with an infected person, officials said.

“It is estimated by the CDC that 1.2 million people in the United States and 350 million people worldwide live with this chronic disease,” said Regenye.

Hepatitis C comes from the hepatitis C virus (HCV), which can be transmitted through direct contact with infected body fluids, such as through injection drug use and sexual contact.

“HCV is among the most common blood borne viral infections in the United States.

Approximately 2.7 to 3.9 million Americans are currently living with a chronic form of this infection, pursuant to statistics provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,” Regenye added.

The Ocean County Health Department provides clinic services that emphasize active treatment and management of the disease to prevent worsening outcomes.

For more information about hepatitis, visit the OCHD website at ochd.org.

H ERE ’ S T O Y OUR H EALTH Dr. Izzy’s Sound News Presented By: Isidore Kirsh, Ph.D., F.A.A.A. (N.J. Lic. #678)

Dr. Isidore Kirsh Ph.D., F.A.A.A.

Possible Prevention Of Hearing Loss Through Better Nutrition

Research seems to confirm a relationship between a healthy cardiovascular system and hearing health. As most of you know, optimal nutrition should be based around “whole foods” - fresh vegetables, fruits and nuts, vegetable juices and virgin olive oil. The jury is still out in regard to meat and dairy products, but it is quite clear that meats in general should be free of hormones and antibiotics. “Dead” foods (anything preheated, refined/processed), all processed vegetable oils, margarine, genetically modified products and aspartame (Equal, Nutrasweet) should also be avoided, particularly if microwaving.

Although I am not a nutritionist, nutritional supplements are probably appropriate for most people. Even though supplements alone cannot provide a complete range of micronutrients that our bodies need to function optimally, they are necessary to counteract basic nutritional deficiencies

due to poor eating habits, to treat current health problems, to enhance the immune system and to counteract any nutritional losses due to prescription medications.

Possible supplements might include Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Vitamin B Complex, Folic Acid, Magnesium, Zinc, Ginkgo Biloba, garlic and fish oil. Other substances such as coenzyme Q10, DHEA, Melatonin and Alpha-Lipoic Acid might be appropriate also. Regular exercise is vital for both cardiovascular fitness and better hearing health.

Research clearly confirms that if we eat right and exercise daily, our overall health will be improved. Although prevention of hearing loss as a function of aging cannot be completely stopped, there are certainly ways to “slow down” the process. The combination of a nutritionally optimal diet, exercise and appropriate hearing aids will lead to a more active lifestyle and improve quality of life.

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!

Stop Counting Carbs, Eat Kaempferol

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. Sometimes a word annoys me, such as flavonoid and all the related words like it including bioflavonoid, bioflavones, flavonol, polyphenol, phytonutrient and oh my gosh you can see how confusing it is to say all those and they all basically mean the same thing: Antioxidant from a plant!

One amazing antioxidant, or flavonoid, or whatever you’d like to call it is kaempferol, pronounced “camp-fur-all.” This is what you’re eating when you bite into raspberries, apples, grapes or tomatoes. It’s also found in spinach, potatoes, onions, kale, endive, lettuce, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cucumbers, lettuce, green beans, peaches, blackberries, cranberries and green tea. One food with a lot of kaempferol is capers!

By now, you’re wondering why I’m talking about kaempferol. I’m tired of everyone talking about carbs, proteins and fats. None of us want to count calories or evaluate ratios of carbs, proteins and fats!

It’s much easier to just eat food that is bright and colorful and full of life-giving nutrients such as kaempferol. My vote is to stop counting carbs, just eat kaempferol. It’s a very promising and innocuous strategy to help with many disorders you’re suffering with: Colon Cancer There was a study in 2014 that proved some benefits from kaempferol in human colon cancer cells.

Food Poisoning This is gross but let’s face it, 50 million people worldwide get infected with Entamoeba histolytica. Transmission is pretty easy, it occurs by eating or drinking food or beverages contaminated with the organ-

ism, which comes from feces. Kaempferol (and quercetin) was shown to destroy the parasite.

Heart Disease A study found that women who have high intakes of kaempferol might be less likely to die of a heart attack. It works in part by preventing the oxidation, as in “rusting” of low-density lipoproteins.

Breast Cancer Breast cancer spreads with the assistance of some compounds in your own body called Matrix metalloproteinases, which we call MMPs for short. Kaempferol slows down cancer cell invasion into other cells (metastasis) by blocking MMPs, specifically MMP-9 expression. So eating foods rich in kaempferol would be a natural consideration for breast health.

Prostate Cancer In Biomedical Reports 2015, we saw that kaempferol could block prostate cell growth to some degree. Kaempferol has many chemopreventative characateristics, both in vivo and in vitro. Epidemiological studies suggest the more kaempferol you consume, the lower your risk of developing cancer.

Alzheimer’s disease.

Granted it’s a fruit fly study, but it still shows promise. The flies ate a diet rich in kaempferol for a month, and then they were evaluated for their ability to climb. You can guess the ones who consumed the diet highest in kaempferol had the best climbing ability, memory (however they figured that out!), and acetylcholine levels.

If you’d like to increase kaempferol in your diet, I’ve posted some recipes at my website including one for a Kaempferol Smoothie, and another for a kaempferol salad.

Attitude and Motivation: Facilitating Addiction Recovery Through Exercise

By Constance Ray Motivation and a healthy attitude can be powerful allies for someone who’s trying to recover from addiction. Exercise and an allaround healthy routine activate endorphins that make you feel good and contribute to a general sense of well-being, producing the

attitude and motivation necessary to battle drug and alcohol addiction.

Regular exercise helps the body recover from the physical and emotional effects of withdrawal, and eases the painful process of addiction recovery. A positive attitude can make the difference between staying true to your treatment

program and lapsing into negative tendencies.

Fortunately, you don’t need a personal trainer or an elaborate personal gym to get the exercise you need. Sixty minutes of physical activity three or four times a week will produce positive effects that leave you feeling successful in your recovery plan and motivated to keep it up.

Consistent Effort Regular, consistent effort, a commitment to making progress and a desire to feel better motivate people in recovery to exercise. Exercise leaves less time for self-destructive activity and lessens the likelihood of a relapse. It also gives many people in recovery the structure they need to focus on positive activities and what they need to do to turn their lives around. Organization and a sense of purpose can facilitate psychological and physical healing.

Positive Thoughts People suffering from addiction often haven’t experienced the personal satisfaction that comes from achieving goals and taking positive steps toward a better life. Exercise instills a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment that can make a big difference for someone struggling to avoid giving in to temptation. Exercise helps you better manage stressors, triggers and cravings. Studies have shown that positive expectations and good feelings helps ward off negative urges and contributes to positive treatment outcomes. If you exercise as part of a group, the social interaction also contributes to positive treatment outcomes by providing an emotional support system that’s often lacking.

Effective Exercises You can realize positive results without having to commit to a regimen of high-impact exercises. Starting out with a routine that’s too strenuous may cause you to quit and leave you vulnerable to negative thoughts, feeling as though you failed. Begin with simple cardio exercises that you can easily do for 30 to 60 minutes a day. Remember, steady, regular progress is the key to long-term success.

Walking, jogging, cycling and swimming can produce the positive feelings you need to maintain a positive attitude about your recovery, enhance self-esteem and reduce cravings.

When you’re feeling confident about your exercise routine, consider trying something more vigorous like running or strength training. It can take a little time to get your body accustomed to running but once it is, you can expect to experience what’s commonly known as the “runner’s high,” in which your brain releases dopamine, serotonin and other pleasure-inducing chemicals. It’s also an effective way to repair the damage that addiction does to the brain’s pleasure centers.

Strength Training Exercising with weights, resistance bands and kettlebells is also beneficial because it can help you overcome insomnia, a frequent problem among people recovering from substance abuse. Push-ups and sit-ups can also produce the same effect. Team sports can also be helpful by supplying you with a strong sense of camaraderie and belonging. These are powerfully reaffirming sensations that make you feel supported in your efforts to stay clean.

Addiction recovery is a physical and emotional ordeal and many people don’t succeed. Exercise gives you confidence and boosts bodily healing, which are important factors that help you stay with your recovery program. Besides, it can be fun and personally rewarding.

Dear Joel

By Joel Markel

Wife Has No Time For Me Dear Joel, My wife is really driven in her career.

She’s in real estate and is quite successful. I would love it if she’d slow down a little and take time to enjoy our lives together too. I know her work hours are all over the place but life shouldn’t be all about work, should it? What can I do to show her the slower side of life and encourage her to smell the roses?

Answer Summer is a great time to show her all the ways people enjoy themselves. Ask her to show you some of her properties, but tell her you’ll do the driving. Then, take the scenic routes pointing out things like boats on the water, the beach, the parks, etc. Stop for lunch at a waterfront

spot, all t he while remindi ng her how nice it is to spend time together. Then ask her for some of her time. Successful, driven people often need to be reminded of how they spend their time. You might also suggest a screen-free day. It’s a new growing trend in schools where families spend a day with no phones or tablets. Be direct. Tell her that her success is important but so is her personal life.

Dealing with Dementia Workshops Coming Soon

TOMS RIVER – Family caregivers are the backbone of community-based services providing over $450 billion of unpaid services across the nation. To support local family caregivers in the area, Caregiver Volunteers of Central Jersey and SCAN are collaborating with the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregiving (RCI) to train eight trainers from across New Jersey to provide Dealing with Dementia workshops for professional and/or family caregivers.

Developed by RCI, the Dealing with Dementia Workshop provides tips and strategies for caregivers on best practices for caring for their loved ones and themselves.

The goal is for Alzheimer’s and dementia family caregivers to gain a better under-

standing of dementia, utilize strategies to effectively manage problem behaviors, and handle caregiver stress and burnout.

The eight graduates of the Dealing with Dementia Worships will be offering these workshops in Ocean, Monmouth Mercer, Middlesex and Union Counties in the fall of 2018 and spring of 2019. Caregivers who attend the four-hour workshop will receive a copy of the Dealing with Dementia Guide. This guide provides over 300 pages of information and solutions to problems caregivers face every day.

R.C. Shea & Assoc.

Inside The Law What Are The Rules When Flying Drones For Fun?

Robert C. Shea Esq.

By Michael J. Deem of R.C. Shea and Associates Fly for Fun under the Special Rule for Model Aircraft!

You don’t need permission from the FAA to fly your UAS (Unmanned Aircraft System) under the Special Rule for Model Aircraft, but you must always fly safely. You may elect to register your UAS to help in the recovery of lost equipment, but this is not required.

The FAA has adopted the following UAS Safety Guidelines: • Fly at or below 400 feet • Be aware of airspace requirements and restrictions • Stay away from surrounding obstacles • Keep your UAS within sight • Never fly near other aircraft, especially near airports • Never fly over groups of people • Never fly over stadiums or sports events • Never fly near emergency response efforts such as fires • Never fly under the influence of drugs or alcohol • Flying under the Special Rule for Model Aircraft.

The Special Rule for Model Aircraft (P.L. 112-95, Section 336) provides the definition and operating rules for flying a model aircraft. Model aircraft operators that comply with all of these operational requirements during flight do not have to register their UAS with the FAA. Model aircraft operators must follow these rules to fly under this Rule: • The aircraft is flown strictly for hobby or recreational use (once you start earning money from the use of the drone you have removed yourself from this exception); • The aircraft is operated in accordance with a community-based set of safety guidelines and within the programming of a nationwide community-based organization; • The aircraft is limited to not more than 55 pounds unless otherwise certified through a design, construction, inspection, flight test, and operational safety program administered

by a community-based organization; • The aircraft is operated Michael J. Deem in a manner that does not interfere with and gives way to any manned aircraft; and • When flown within 5 miles of an airport, the operator of the aircraft provides the airport operator and the airport air traffic control tower (when an air traffic facility is located at the airport) with prior notice of the operation (model aircraft operators flying from a permanent location within 5 miles of an airport should establish a mutually-agreed upon operating procedure with the airport operator and the airport air traffic control tower [when an air traffic facility is located at the airport]) A model aircraft is defined as an unmanned aircraft that is capable of sustained flight in the atmosphere, flown within visual line of sight of the person operating the aircraft and flown for hobby or recreational purposes.

UAS Registration.

If you do not operate exclusively under the Special Rule for Model Aircraft, you must: • Register your UAS if it weighs more than 0.55 pounds and less than 55 pounds • Label your UAS (PDF) with your registration number and Read and understand all safety guidelines Registration costs $5 and is valid for 3 years. If you are flying under the Special Rule for Model Aircraft and you wish to register voluntarily, you should register as a “modeler.” If you are flying under part 107, Section 333, part 91, a public COA, or for non-recreational purposes in general, you should register as a “non-modeler.”

In order to register, you must be: • 13 years of age or older (if the owner is less than 13 years of age, a person 13 years of age or older must register the small unmanned aircraft) • A U.S. citizen or legal permanent resident.

Our clients’ success is our greatest reward.

AMI Foundation 10th Annual Tools For Schools Drive

By Kimberly Bosco NEW JERSEY – The AMI Foundation will be collecting school supplies at all their locations to benefit students in need until August 20.

AMI’s “Tools for Schools” event intends to collect the necessary school supplies for those students who might not be able to get them.

The supply drive will run from July 23-August 20 at all of AMI’s locations in Atlantic, Cape May, Ocean and Monmouth counties. There will be blue collection baskets in each reception area. You can fi nd the office closest to you at atlanticmedicalimaging.com.

“There are many children right here in our own communities who are not properly prepared for their return to school, simply because they lack the basic supplies like

pencils and paper,” said Dr. Peggy Avagliano, President of the AMI Foundation Board of Directors. “We invite the community to join our physicians and employees in donating much-needed school supplies, and thus help provide these children with an equal opportunity at a quality education.”

If you wish to donate, the supplies needed include: pencils, erasers,spiral notebooks, pocket folders, crayons, colored markers, colored pencils, glue sticks, highlighters, and soft pencil cases.

The AMI Foundation also purchases back packs in addition to the school supply donations. Following the supply drive, the supplies and book bags will be delivered to elementary schools throughout the area.

To date, the AMI Foundation has donated 2,500 back packs to area school children in need.

AFSP New Jersey Director Elizabeth Roithmayr-Clemens recently attended AFSP’s annual Advocacy Forum in Washington D.C. Suicide Prevention Programs

and Initiatives.

“I traveled to Washington, D.C. along with more than 225 AFSP advocates from all 50 states to educate Congress on priority areas to help improve mental health and prevent suicide,” Clemens said.

“We provided information to all 535 Congressional offices urging them to support legislation in five key areas that would play a vital role in preventing suicide and improving mental health across the country,”

Clemens said.

The five key areas include increased funding for suicide prevention research, insurance coverage for mental health and substance use conditions, military and veteran suicide prevention, preservation of funding for suicide prevention programs and increased funding for the National Suicide Prevention (800-273-8255 [TALK]) and Crisis Centers.

Suicide Prevention Programs And Initiatives • In 2004, the New Jersey legislature established the Youth Suicide Prevention Advisory Council (“Council”) to advise and make recommendations to the Department of Children and Families (DCF) for youth suicide reporting, prevention and intervention. DCF is the lead agency for youth suicide prevention in the state and provides staff support to the Council.

• New Jersey Law charges DCF with developing and adopting a statewide youth suicide prevention plan, in consultation with the Council and the Department of Human Services; see the New Jersey Strategy for Youth Suicide Prevention (2015), bit. ly/2FGp64R. • Funded by DCF, the Traumatic Loss Coalitions for Youth Program at Rutgers-University Behavioral HealthCare offers support to professionals working with school-age youth and provides suicide prevention and trauma response assistance to schools after a loss.

• The NJ Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services’ Suicide Prevention Committee developed the state’s Adult Suicide Prevention Plan 2014-2017, bit.ly/2DwSJj7.

The Suicide Prevention Committee has overall responsibility for implementing, monitoring, and evaluating the plan.

• New Jersey law requires that public school teaching staff members complete at least 2 hours of suicide prevention instruction per professional development period; instruction must be provided by a licensed health care professional with training/experience in mental health issues. The law also requires educators to report when they believe that a student has attempted or completed suicide; requires that suicide prevention be included within elementary, middle, and high school curriculum); and that institutions of higher education have health care professionals available 24 hours a day who focus on reducing student suicides and attempted suicide.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen Savor The Summer: Enjoy The Season’s Tasty Tomatoes Thanks To These Easy Recipes

By Wolfgang Puck

We’re entering the height of summer’s tomato season. Right now, when I visit my favorite organic farmers, any friend’s home garden or a farmers’ market, I am thrilled to see an abundance of sun-ripened tomatoes of every size, shape and color.

I can’t get enough of tomatoes, and I’m sure you feel the same way. Whether they’re tiny grape tomatoes or jumbo beefsteaks, golden or orange, red or black, solid-hued or striped or blushing with multiple colors, tomatoes offer a robust meatiness, a refreshing juiciness and an unmatched combination of sweetness and bright acidity.

Of course, I like to eat sun-ripened tomatoes fresh in salads, such as an Italian caprese, overlapping sliced tomatoes with mozzarella and basil leaves, or a panzanella in which chunks of tomato are tossed with rustic crispy croutons and fresh herbs. Right now I also make lots of gazpacho, the refreshing cold soup of pureed tomatoes, olive oil, bread, garlic and herbs. Sometimes I’ll even pick up a big, firm (but ripe) tomato and eat it right out of my hand like an apple.

But, let’s be honest: The time may come when you start to feel like you’ve had too much of a good thing. That’s when I make my favorite tomato sauce to refrigerate or freeze. A basic sauce like this helps you make the most of a good harvest for days or months to come, using it in pasta sauces, soups, stews or braises or to add bright summery flavor and color to risotto, the popular Italian dish of creamy, al dente short-grained rice.

Whenever I cook with any fresh tomatoes larger than the bite-sized cherry variety, I usually remove their indigestible peels, slightly bitter seeds and watery seed sacs first to help me capture the purest essence of the tomato. It’s an easy step to accomplish.

Bring a pot of water to a boil and, nearby, place a mixing bowl filled with ice and water. With a small, sharp knife, score a shallow X in the flower end of each tomato and immerse the tomatoes in the water for about 20 seconds. Using tongs, a slotted spoon or a wire skimmer, immediately transfer them to the ice water. Drain them. Use your fingertips or the knife to peel off the skins starting at the X; cut out the cores; and cut each tomato in half, squeezing out the seeds or scooping them out with a fingertip or small spoon.

Now you’re ready to make my tomato sauce. The recipe that follows yields enough for my risotto and one or two more uses to help get you into the swing of enjoying summer’s bounty.

FRESH SUMMER TOMATO RISOTTO WITH SAUTEED SHRIMP Serves 2 6 tablespoons olive oil 1 tablespoon shallot, minced 2 teaspoons garlic, minced 1 cup (250 mL) Arborio rice 1/4 cup (60 mL) dry white wine 2 cups (500 mL) chicken stock or good-quality canned chicken broth, brought to a boil and kept at a simmer 1 3/4 cups (435 mL) Fresh Summer Tomato Sauce (recipe follows) 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into cubes 1/4 cup (60 mL) freshly grated Parmesan cheese Kosher salt Freshly ground white pepper 8 fresh jumbo shrimp, peeled, deveined and

butterflied, tails left on 1/4 cup (60 mL) frozen green petite peas, thawed 1 large sun-ripened tomato, peeled, seeded, and diced 5 fresh basil leaves, cut into thin julienne strips 2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley For the risotto, in a medium skillet heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallots and 1 teaspoon minced garlic, and saute until soft but not yet brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the rice, and stir until well-coated with the oil. Stir in the wine and cook, stirring, until the pan is almost dry.

Using a 4-ounce (125-mL) ladle, add one ladle of the hot stock or broth to the rice. Stir until the stock has been absorbed and the rice looks almost dry. Continue adding more stock 1 ladle at a time, stirring after each addition, until the rice is tender but still firm and looks moist and creamy but not runny.

Stir in the fresh summer tomato sauce until thoroughly combined. Remove the risotto from the heat, and stir in the butter and the Parmesan cheese.

Season with salt and pepper and keep warm.

Immediately heat the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat.

Add the remaining teaspoon of minced garlic and the shrimp, and season to taste with salt and white pepper. Add the peas and cook, stirring continuously, until the shrimp turn pink and opaque, 4 to 5 minutes.

In a small bowl, toss together the large diced tomato and the julienned basil, seasoning to taste with salt and white pepper.

Remove the shrimp from the heat, and stir in the parsley. Divide the risotto between two warm serving plates, and mound the tomato-basil mixture in the center of each. Arrange the shrimp and peas on top of the rice around the tomato. Serve immediately.

FRESH SUMMER TOMATO SAUCE Makes about 5 cups (1.25 L) 1/4 cup (60 mL) extra-virgin olive oil 2 small yellow onions, minced 6 garlic cloves, minced 2 tablespoons tomato paste 4 pounds (1 kg) fresh vine-ripened tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and chopped 2 cups (500 mL) chicken or vegetable stock or good-quality canned broth, heated 4 tablespoons thinly julienned fresh basil Kosher salt, to taste Freshly ground black pepper Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat.

Add the olive oil and, as soon as it flows freely when the pan is tilted, add the onion and saute, stirring frequently until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the tomato paste, and stir for about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, and cook until they begin to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the stock and simmer briskly, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens, about 20 minutes.

If you want a finer-textured sauce (as preferred for the recipe above), place a fine-meshed sieve over a heatproof bowl, pour in the sauce, and press it through with a rubber spatula.

Stir in the basil, season to taste with salt and pepper, and set aside. Store any unused sauce in an airtight nonreactive container in the refrigerator for two to three days or in the freezer for three to four months.
