By Bob Vosseller JACKSON – Parishioners of the Canaan Christian Chu rch descr ibe themselves as a congregation of families who make up one big bilingual family. With that thought in mind, the church’s 40th anniversary was perhaps more of a giant family reunion.

The church is made up of a diverse background of people, but the majority of them are families, according to their pastor, Reverend Jose Santiago, who has served as pastor since 2007.

The evangelical church formed in 1978 when residents were seeking to form a Spanish congregation.

Security, Other Goals Discussed For Schools

By Bob Vosseller JACKSON – Board members and district staff set their sights on the future during its annual goal setting meeting held earlier this summer.

That meeting included the board, Superintendent Stephen Genco, his assistant superintendents, the business admin-

istrator, and other district staff.

Genco spoke about how the district is a partnership of “dedicated staff, learners and community members committed to developing the unique abilities of each student through compelling learning experiences in a safe and nurturing environment.

“Our comprehensive, engaging and technology-enriched programs inspire, educate and motivate students to become independent, creative and critical thinkers who will thrive in a diverse, evolving global society,” Genco said.

The meeting reviewed 20172018 school year goals and not-

ed that they had been achieved.

New goals for the district include increased security measures at each school.

To that end the Board previously approved adding a special ballot question in November to seek voter approval to add six security guards to the district’s existing security pro-

gram. To that end, the district is creating an informational campaign to explain the proposal and costs to township residents.

Other goals include expanding in-class resources to third grades, continuing efforts to increase awareness of student mental health, implement a (Schools - See Page 4)

Church: Continued From Page 1 their Bennettsville home. “We were able to buy property for a church in 1982,” Santiago said.

In January of 1979, the congregation decided to move all their services to the basement chapel. Each year the congregation grew with an emphasis on discipleship, bible study and fellowship.

In 1995, the building was completed and the parish finally had a home on 88 Frank Applegate Road. “We’ve become a church that has bilingual services that hosts a variety of programs. We have activities for younger people as well as older ones. We also have weekly life group meetings which are smaller groups that meet at people’s homes,” Rev. Santiago said.

The pastor said that the congregation has around 185 members. “We are looking to expand and add to our building. We have been blessed to be a part of Jackson and to help meet the needs of this community.”

Michelle Rodriguez of Brick was busy planting petunias in front of the church a few days prior to the parish’s anniversary. “I joined two years ago.

My husband Ernesto and I had been invited by a friend and my husband wasn’t sure about it but we came out and we loved it and have been here ever since. They are very godly people and it is like a family. Our pastor is a very humble man.

He and his wife (Pastor Marianela Santiago) make everyone feel welcome.”

Rodriguez said that being Hispanic, she enjoys the services spoken in Spanish. “People learn a little Spanish when they come here.

Many families attend, some from outside of Jackson. Some ex-wives and ex-husbands all come together here with their children. It really brings people together.”

Gil Berrios of Barnegat joined the church a little over a year ago. “I came here because my daughter, from Toms River, was a member already.”

Berrios said he and his wife Aida, had been attending a church in Lakewood. Like Ro-

driguez, he found Canaan to be welcoming and one large extended family. He was also attracted to the bilingual services and the life group meetings. He noted that while the church does not have a choir, members provide their musical talent for Sunday services.

Lakewood resident Betsy Roman joined the church when she was a child in 1997.

“Pastor Antonio was there for me after the passing of my sister. He was there for my family and offered us counseling. I was five years old at the time and not even a member of the church. He didn’t have to do that but he did.”

Roman returned from Puerto Rico recently having endured Hurricane Maria. “I was there during the hurricane and afterward to try and help. I’m glad to be here for this celebration. I enjoy the Monday Life Group meetings. Most of them are based on the subject of the Sunday Service and we go into questions or concerns that people may have and it helps you to get to know people so that on Sundays, you know others, and this makes you feel even more a part of the church.” The church has been involved in recovery efforts for residents of Puerto Rico.

Jorge Rod has been a member of the parish for several years now. Rod publishes Latinos Unidos de Nueva Jersey, a Spanish newspaper. His wife Betty has been a member of the church for nearly 30 years. “This is my large family.”

Christina Faulkner of Manchester served as greeter during the celebration. “When we moved from north Jersey my husband and I were looking for a church. We visited several but when we came here we knew it was the one for us. It is special.”

The anniversary gathering on July 28 featured an outdoor celebration that included Spanish food, a display table featuring photos, proclamations and other items of church history, music and children’s activities. The party continued on July 29, with a fellowship breakfast, followed by services.

Capitol Comments Assemblyman Ronald Dancer 12th Legislative District, Serving Jackson

JACKSON – Assemblyman Ron Dancer lauded a Superior Court judge’s decision halting the impending eviction of a 94-yearold World War II veteran from his North Hanover

home.

Judge Kathi Fiamingo ordered a stay, stopping foreclosure on Walter Perry’s property. Perry was a pilot who flew B-25 bombers in World War II and B-50s

From The Desk Of

Congressman

Chris Smith WASHI NGTON, D.C. - The House passed the 2019 National Defense Authorization Act which provides Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst personnel with the largest pay raise in nine years and also authorizes $10.2 million in projects specifically for JB-MDL.

Rep. Chris Smith (R-NJ), who voted for the bill, said “It is critical that this legislation authorizes a pay raise and new equipment for the men and women serving in our nation’s armed forces.

For too long their needs have been ignored, and now is the time to ensure they have all the resources and

World War II Veteran Facing Eviction, Allowed To Stay during the Korean War. “It was the right decision at the right time for a war hero who served his country well,” said Dancer (R-12th).

“Mr. Perry has earned the right to have a little more time to save his home.”

After learning of Perry’s plight, Dancer went to work to fi nd a solution.

He brought the case to the attention of the state Department of Military and Veterans Affairs and to Gov. Phil Murphy when they met during the Memorial Day ceremony at Brig. General William C. Doyle Veterans Cemetery in Wrightstown.

Perry, who is permanently

disabled, lost his wife four years ago and lives alone.

He has a reverse mortgage, but an outstanding tax bill puts the home in jeopardy.

“After all he did to serve and defend our country, Mr. Perry is in need of our service and I want to make sure he gets the help he deserves,” said Dancer, who

is working to get in-home assistance for the veteran.

“It’s unacceptable to evict a 94-year-old, 100 percent disabled war hero from his longtime place of residence,” continued Dancer.

“We’re going to keep making the calls and asking the questions until he gets the support he needs.”

Increase In Military Pay, Equipment Was Needed

equipment they require to get the job done.”

The FY 2019 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) has a topline of $717 billion, and not only includes an across-theboard 2.6 percent pay raise for all military personnel, building upon the 2.4 percent raise from FY 2018, but it also leaves out Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC), the federal process to realign and/or close military bases.

The $10.2 million authorized for Joint Base Mc-

Guire-Dix-Lakehurst will be used to replace the Hot Cargo Hydrant System, for aircraft that require hazardous cargo parking.

The project is needed in preparation for the highly-anticipated arrival of the KC-46A refueling tankers, which are expected to begin arriving in FY 2021.

“These authorizations will provide an essential boost to the employees at JB-MDL, continuing to upgrade the base and making it the premier refueling hub on the East Coast,” Smith said. “I

am also glad we were able to keep a new round of Base Realignment and Closure out of this legislation.”

U.S. military readiness receives another significant boost in the bill, which authorizes: $40.8 billion for new aircraft $36.3 billion for new ships and the maintenance of existing ships $23.5 billion for repairs and rebuilding of military buildings and infrastructure $17.7 billion for rehabilitation and replacement of

worn out Army equipment Earlier this year, Smith suppor t e d t he F Y2018 NDAA (P.L. 115-91), which i ncluded a 2.4 percent across-the-board pay raise for military personnel and authorized over $146.5 million for JB-MDL for construction projects related to the arrival of the KC-46A refueling tanker anticipated for 2021. It also authorized $11.6 million for Navy Reserve and Marine Corps Reserve projects at the base for aircraft apron, taxiway, and support facilities.

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY Letters To The Editor

F EATURED L ETTER Blood Donations Saved My Life My name is Evelyn and when I was able to, I donated blood because I knew how vital it was and still is for people who need it.

Years ago, unfortunately, I was told I could no longer donate due to being diagnosed with an extremely rare form of blood cancer, which now requires that I receive blood transfusions almost every week due to very severe anemia.

I just want to thank everybody who makes the sacrifice to donate for people like me, and I praise the efforts, especially now that I know firsthand how important blood donation is.

There is truth in the state that “when you donate blood, you donate life.”

Letters To the The Editor nation, I am requesting Move VA Clinic To Sears Property I just read your article on the proposed site for the Veterans Administration clinic in Toms River (“Toms River Continues Push For New VA Clinic” in the July 21 edition).

Last week I had suggested to a councilman that the old Sears store should be looked at instead of knocking down more trees and causing more congestion on Hooper Avenue. Using the mall would provide a tremendous amount of parking already there, bus transportation already there, and the ability to go into the mall to shop or eat.

Not only that, the building is up, water and electric are there and it is all on one level.

Move the VA office into the Sears building too. One stop easy access and all of the services a veteran may need.

No running from one shop to another.

Even the outside services, like eyeglasses or shoes, can be located in the area.

It would be less money to establish an existing building than it would be to build a new one.

Hopefully, others would agree with me.

Is Taxation A Form Of Legal Thievery?

Because New Jersey has the highest property tax in

every municipal and county governing body to place the following non-binding referendum question “Is taxation a form of legal thievery?” on the ballot before the deadline of Aug. 17.

This question will bring out every registered voter to the ballot box and it will generate the kind of vital discussion needed for a dramatic change of course.

Simply put, because we are the property of the Creator, and not of the State, taxation is legal thievery.

The alternative to forced cooperation [socialism] in the form of taxation is voluntary cooperation [co-operativism] predicated on the law of equal return [payment for services rendered and accepted]. Co-operativism is not volunterism, whereby you act without expecting anything in return. For the government services you want, you supply your labor, or goods, or money in cooperation with others seeking the same services in the context of the law of equal return.

On July 11, I asked my own municipal governing body to move on the ballot question.

On July 12, I asked my own county governing body to act on the question. They have until Aug. 17 to place it on the November ballot. It is now the time for every citizen to do the same with respect to their own municipal and county governing bodies.

Bay Avenue Intersections Too Crowded

I am happy to see that left turn lanes will be installed near the Target and the Michael’s shopping areas. I would like officials to look at 2 other intersections which could use properly timed left turn signals.

First is the intersection of Bay Avenue and Vaughn Avenue.

There is a left turn onto Vaughn arrow for the people driving west on Bay Avenue while oncoming traffic is still stopped. For people driving east on Bay wanting to make a left onto Vaughn, there is a left turn arrow but it corresponds to the green light for oncoming traffic. So drivers have to wait until the oncoming traffic stops before they can make their left.

I think the left turn arrows in both directions should allow for turns at the same time.

Second is the intersection of Bay Avenue and Cedar Grove Road.

If traveling west on Bay Avenue, drivers are able to make a left turn, based on a left turn signal, onto Cedar Grove before oncoming traffic starts.

For travelers traveling east on Bay, there is no left turn arrow for drivers wanting to make a left onto Cedar Grove. They have to wait until all the oncoming traffic stops in order to make the left.

These 2 issues create bottlenecks and I can’t understand why they weren’t done properly to start with.

–Photo by Jackie Abbott David Iserson with actress Kate McKinnon during the filming of “The Spy Who Dumped Me.”

By Jennifer Peacock FREEHOLD – How do you get from Springsteen’s hometown to the City of Angels? Freehold Township High School graduate David Iserson, television writer and author, knows. Film was always his goal. His new movie, “The Spy Who Dumped Me,” starring Mila Kunis, Kate McKinnon, Justin Theroux and Sam Heughan had its Los Angeles premiere July 25 and opens nationwide Aug. 3.

Kunis and McKinnon star as Audrey and Morgan, Los Angeles-based best f r iends who f ind themselves in the middle of an international conspiracy thanks to Audrey’s ex-boyfriend, who has a team of assassins following him.

It somehow falls on these two to save the world.

In between promotions and getting ready for the premiere, he answered a few questions from Jersey Shore Online.

Jersey Shore Online: The 11-year-old David had head shots, one you described as “Child Don Henley on the Cover of End of the Innocence Album.” What were your creative aspirations growing up in Freehold?

David Iserson: I acted in school plays and small community theater productions and I went to weekly drawing and painting classes for much of my childhood. Growing up, I wanted to one day have my own comic strip. Something like Bloom County or Calvin and Hobbes.

This dream didn’t happen.

JSO: You graduated Freehold Township High School, then Northwestern University. Did you always have your sights set on Saturday Night Live? How did you land that writing gig (and when did you decide that you were more a writer than actor?)? What did you learn about the craft, and about yourself, during that time on SNL?

DI: I did not have my sights set on SNL. I moved to Los Angeles to write. Film or television. I took a bunch of improv classes in Hollywood and did a little bit of stand-up, but I was never great at it. I ended up working as an assistant (getting lunches, fetching coffee) on some shortlived TV shows and a coworker put me in touch with someone who I could submit jokes to for Weekend Update. I got some jokes on the air and it led to a job there.

So, I moved to New York.

I didn’t work very long at SNL, but it was exciting. There was a great creative energy and that place is f illed with mind-blowing talent. I learned a ton about how to write a joke, how to write fast and that, sometimes, your best ideas fall f lat on their face - sometimes on national television.

JSO: You seemingly went from “Live, from New York…” to Tinseltown. You’ve written for both critically acclaimed and viewer-beloved television shows such as “United States of Tara,” “Mad Men,” and “New Girl.” What was the transition like not only from New York to L.A., but sketch comedy to serial dramas and the 30-minute comedy?

DI: I lived in LA before I worked in New York so moving back wasn’t really a transition. I loved working on so many shows and very different shows. I love writing all sorts of characters and the challenge of doing different things with different tones. But mostly, I love telling different kinds of stories and what all of those shows have in common is that working there meant sitting in a room with a ton of smart, talented people writing stories together.

JSO: You also wrote a young adult novel while writing on your television gigs, Firecracker, about a protagonist Astrid (Writer - See Page 21)

Lawyer Pleads Guilty To Stealing Millions

By Jennifer Peacock TRENTON – A prominent radio show host and attorney pleaded guilty to stealing millions of dollars from elderly clients.

He also pleaded guilty to laundering that money through various bank accounts, his attorney trust, and business accounts.

Robert Novy, 66, of Brick, pleaded guilty to first-degree money laundering in Ocean County Superior Court, before Judge Michael T. Collins.

The state will seek 10 years in state prison, including three years and four months parole ineligibility, as part of the plea agreement for fi rst-degree money laundering. Novy will be sentenced Sept. 28.

Novy admitted to stealing millions - the state believes nearly $3 million from at least two dozen victims - from law fi rm

clients, many of whom didn’t have close relatives to guard their interests, or suffered from dementia.

Novy must pay $4 million restitution to victims. He must also surrender his license to practice law in New Jersey and pay the state an anti-money laundering profiteering penalty of $500,000.

Novy hosted “Inside the Law,” which focused on topics of interest to senior citizens.

He was arrested Oct. 18, 2016.

Anyone who believes they or someone they know is a victim of Novy’s is asked to write to Deputy Attorney General Kara R. Webster in the State Office of Victim Witness Advocacy at WebsterK@njdcj.org, or if they do not have email access, phone 609-376-2444.

Roadway Changes Expected In Northern Part Of County

By Chris Lundy TOMS RIVER – The Ocean County Freeholders went out to bid on a project that will rework an intersection on Hooper Avenue to install left turn lanes out of two popular shopping centers. It was one of several anticipated changes that officials said will make the county’s roadways safer.

Currently, anyone leaving the Target shopping center can’t make a left turn.

They have to go right and take the next jughandle (or make a quick and possibly illegal turnaround in front of Michael’s).

Similarly, anyone coming out of the shopping center where Michael’s is can’t turn left, either. They would have to go right and turn around when possible.

The changes will open up the intersection to both directions of egress, the freeholders said in a press release.

“This is a heavily traveled area of the Hooper Avenue corridor. We believe this modification will have a positive outcome with traffic safety and accessibility,” Freeholder John Kelly said. “We will be improving traffic signals along Hooper Avenue from Toms River into Brick Township. This project is part of the numerous recommendations made in the updated County transportation master plan that focuses on upgrades

in the four municipalities in the transportation plan.”

The plan looks at the growing population in the northern sections of the count y, par ticularly in Toms R iver, Brick, Jackson and Lakewood townships. In making this study, the consultant, Stantec Consulting Services, Wall Township, developed forecasts out to 2025 based on information such as socioeconomic data, zoning information, planned developments, approved developments, and certificates of occupancy.

“This plan takes a broader look at our northern roads,” said Freeholder Deputy Director John C. Bartlett Jr., “This is a tool that helps us plan into the future.

There are many other projects we will be looking to implement over time.”

Other recent projects include upgrading traffic signals on East County Line Road in Lakewood, and designs to improve Cross Street.

The traffic signal on Hooper was just the latest part of the plan. The county engineer was instructed to seek bids for its redesign at a recent Freeholder meeting.

Work is expected to begin this fall. A press release from last year anticipated that the project would have been done by the spring of 2018.

Ocean County Animal Shelters Participate In “Clear The Shelters”

By Kimberly Bosco OCEAN COUNTY – The 4th annual “Clear the Shelters” national adoption event will be held on August 18, 1-4 p.m. at both Ocean County Animal Shelters in Manahawkin and Jackson.

“Clear the Shelters” is a nationwide event put on by hundreds of shelters all across thwe country. Last year saw the adoption of over tan 80,000 dogs and cats.

“This event is the perfect opportunity to help a dog or cat in need find a loving, forever home,” said Ocean County Freeholder Director Gerry P. Little, Liaison to the Ocean County Board of Health.

“If you or someone you know have been thinking about adding a dog or cat to the family, nothing is more rewarding than rescuing a shelter pet.”

The annual event has seen over 150,000 animals adopted since 2015.

“Our goal is to find homes for as many dogs and cats as possible during this special one day adoption event,” said Daniel Regenye, Ocean County Health Department (OCHD) Public Health Coordinator. “We’re in the midst of our busy season and have a bumper crop of kittens along with many other sweet, adult cats

and dogs ready for a second chance.”

During the event, all adoption fees will be waived and every dog and cat adopted will receive a veterinar y exam, age appropriate vaccinations, is spayed/ neutered, and microchipped.

If you’re interested in adopting an animal, take part in the event at one of the two Ocean County locations: the Southern Ocean County Animal Facility located at 360 Haywood Road in Manahawkin, and the Northern Ocean County Animal Facility located at 615 Freemont Avenue in Jackson.

“We have a wide variety of lovable cats and dogs available for adoption.

From all sizes, ages, and breeds, we have a pet suited for everyone,” said Brian Rumpf, Director of Administration for the Ocean County Health Department. “Every year hundreds of pets are adopted from the Ocean County Animal Facilities and there’s nothing better than seeing the joy and happiness these wonderful animals bring to their new families.”

By Chris Lundy JERSEY SHORE – The State Department of Environmental Protection has created a new web site that will inform bathers of potential closures due to high bacteria counts.

The DEP’s Cooperative Coastal Monitoring Program has created njbeaches.org, an interactive website where people can see the status of their favorite beaches. There’s a map of the state, with little circles where the water is being monitored on the east coast from Monmouth to Cape May counties. The circles are color-coded to denote if the beach is open, closed, or if there’s an advisory. If you zoom in on the map, you can click on the beach and find out what the bacteria count was.

Although the DEP said that there are 180 ocean and 35 bay monitoring stations along the coast, there are also some more inland.

There are several along the Toms River, such as in Ocean Gate, Pine Beach, and Beachwood. There’s one on the Brick side of the Metedeconk River. There are two on the Point Pleasant side of the Manasquan River. There’s one at the L Street beach in Belmar, on the Shark River. The rest are on the ocean or bay from Keansburg to Cape May Point.

There is also a field guide of what people might find at the beach, from jellyfish to balls of grease that harden after being poured down drains.

The water is being tested for enterocci, bacteria found in human and animal waste.

The bacteria, in and of itself, is not harmful, said Bruce Friedman, director of the DEP’s Division of Water Monitoring and Standards. It appears naturally in our own bodies. He said that the presence of a lot of that bacteria indicates that there’s waste in the water. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.

The federal standard for this bacteria is 110 colony forming units per 100 ml, Friedman said. However, New Jersey’s tests are a bit more stringent, sending up a yellow flag for

104 units per 100 ml.

Tests are done on Monday, and results are back the next day. If it hits 104 or more, then an advisory is issued for that beach. The little circle on the map turns from green to yellow. The beach can still remain open.

Any beach that has an advisory from Monday gets tested again on Tuesday, Friedman said. This time, though, instead of just testing the one spot, they test 150 feet in three directions out into the water.

If the bacteria count is still more than 104, then the beach is closed. Yellow turns to red. That beach will then be tested every day, going out an additional 150 feet each day. Once the numbers drop below 104, the beach is re-opened.

Generally speaking, bay beaches close more frequently than ocean beaches, he said. Ocean beaches have more tidal flow, which washes out anything harmful.

In addition to water tests, there are flights that are taken over the water every day except Wednesday during the beach season.

Observers look for debris, algae, or other signs that mark whether the water is healthy or not. There are also sensors on the plane to detect unhealthy conditions.

There have been fewer advisories issued so far this year than last year, he said.

Stormwater runoff is a major cause of this bacterium. A heavy rainfall will often lead to high bacteria counts. The rain washes waste into the waterways, and then the bacteria flourish. Unfortunately, with the amount of development along the shore, this will always be an issue. Another issue is if there is damage with a municipality’s sewerage infrastructure.

And that leads into why the tests are done on Monday, despite most people going to the beach on the weekend. If a beach gets a green light on Monday, it’s not tested for the rest of the week. A lot could happen in a few days.

Partnership For A Drug-Free New Jersey Encourages Family Fun With Online Fishing Tournament MILLBURN — The Partnership for a Dr ug-Free New Jersey (PDFNJ) is asking families to cast their lines and reel in some quality time this summer as part of the fourth annual Don’t Get Hooked on Dr ugs Online NJ Family Fishing Tournament.

The competition will be held from July 27 to August 5 as a way to encou rage fam ilies to enjoy a d ay of fishing, while giving family members an opportunity to talk with each other more about their daily activities.

Children who communicate regularly with their parents about daily activities are 67 percent less likely to be involved in substance use than children who have little or no communication, according to PDFNJ research. Summer provides many opportunities for families to create lasting memories that help to st rengthen relationships bet ween children and parents and guardians.

“The Don’t Get Hooked on Drugs Online NJ Family Fishing Tournament is a great opportunity for families to bond

and have fun together,” PDFNJ Executive Director Angelo Valente said.

“Spending more time with family is the best way to prevent children from using alcohol and other substances and help them continue living drug-free.”

To participate in the contest, entrants must be 18 years old or younger, New Jersey residents, and be accompanied by a parent or guardian while f ishing. Participants then have to snap a photo of their family enjoying a fishing trip and post it with the hashtag

#drugfreenj on Facebook, Twitter or I nst ag ram. T he photo must include the youth participant and a parent or guardian.

Winners will be selected at random on Aug ust 7 a nd w ill receive cash prizes. Participants can follow PDFNJ on Facebook (@PartnershipForADrugFr e e Ne wJe r s e y), Tw i t t e r (@ d r u gfreeNJ) and Instagram (@drugfreenj) to see contest submissions.

Where’s My Headache Coming From?

By: Craig Michaels, PT, DPT, for All-Care Physical Therapy Center’s Manchester Location Although there are many culprits of headaches, did you know that one specific kind can be treated with Physical Therapy? There are many factors that can contribute to that nagging pain; such as stress and tension, allergies, posture, medication and even migraines. Although chronic headaches often tend to have more than one causative factor, this article will specifically look at the link between the musculoskeletal system and headaches. Many patients walk into All-Care Physical Therapy with complaints of occasional headaches, and the reason for this could be their posture.

excessive muscle tension in the neck, face, shoulders and upper back. Our muscles are made up of muscle fibers that are bundled closely together. When the muscle fibers contract together, a muscle is shortened. When we are under stress, we commonly tense and shorten the muscles of the shoulders, upper back, face, and neck which can lead to a tension headache. This can be further exacerbated by the buildup of chemicals that flood the area in response to irritation, causing what is known as a “trigger point.” These trigger points can refer pain along nerves of a nearby area, or into the head. These types of headaches tend to improve once the underlying problem is addressed.

HOW ARE HEADACHES CAUSED BY THE MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM?

WHY DOES OUR POSTURE CHANGE?

Research has found that irritated or inflamed nerves or muscles in the neck can refer pain over the scalp, and into the face and forehead, causing headaches. Common neck problems that can cause or contribute to these irritated nerves/muscles are trauma, whiplash, or normal wear and tear such as arthritis. Whiplash is often present in Motor Vehicle Accidents when the head and neck “whips” backward and forward quickly, commonly experienced in rear-ended collisions. The muscles and ligaments in the front and the back of the neck are strained. Secondly, trauma, such as a fall or sporting accident can result in ligaments or bones being affected. Lastly, and most commonly, normal wear and tear of the vertebrae in the neck due to the ageing process can lead to a progressive degeneration of the cervical spine (neck), which can in turn affect the muscles. This is often exacerbated by forward head posture, in which the head crosses too far forward from the midline. This often puts strain and tightens certain muscles of the neck, leading to what is known as a postural related headache.

There are several culprits that can lead to changes in our posture over time. We typically spend a majority of our day slouching forward, spending too much time sitting down, or even looking down at our phones or computers. Over time, this can alter our posture and put added strain on the neck. This can specifically lead to tightness of the suboccipital muscles, which sit at the base of your skull. When these muscles tighten, pain can be referred deep in the head from the occiput (skull) to the eyes.

The skeleton and muscles of the neck and upper back must work together to allow movement. If there is a disconnect between this movement, such as forward head posture, a problem can occur. This can contribute to headaches. For example, a tension headache is almost always caused by

stimulation, Ultrasound, or Phonphoresis (Ultrasound with hydrocortisone cream). Your therapist will determine the most appropriate modality for your symptoms. In addition, your therapist will “release” muscles in your neck that have become inflamed or in spasm over time. This can be performed through a treatment known as a suboccipital release, in which the muscles at the base of the skull are released to offer headache reduction. Another treatment is known as trigger point release, to soften and align spasms in muscles of the neck. Your therapist will also guide you in exercises to correct postural changes that have occurred over time. You can often notice a reduction of symptoms within 1 visit, however changes in posture and muscular control can take several weeks. Therefore, it is important to follow the specific exercises your therapist has created for you.

By the time headaches are being experienced by the patient, there are already significant postural changes that are causing inflammation and spasms in the neck musculature.

Your therapist will perform a detailed Initial Examination to ensure your headaches are coming from a musculoskeletal origin. This includes extensive postural analysis, range of motion and flexibility. In addition, the therapist will feel around the numerous neck muscles and locate spasms or inflammation. This will allow for your therapist to pinpoint the specific cause related to your headache. Once this is performed, it is important to calm down this inflammation and relax the muscles using a variety of modalities we offer at AllCare Physical Therapy. This includes moist heat, ice, electric-

Craig graduated at the top of his class, and received the Program Excellence Award for clinical experience, academic excellence and professionalism. He completed a series of rigorous clinical affiliations that prepared him for a wide variety of patients. These vary from orthopedic conditions, where he studied at All-Care in Toms River, to spinal cord injuries at Kessler Institute for Rehabilitation in West Orange. These experiences led to his interest in a population ranging from Orthopedic to Neurologic rehabilitation, as well as a focus on gait disorders.

Craig believes that flexibility is the key to mobility, and in a whole body approach to wellness. His focus is on a one on one approach and to remain very hands on with every patient. In the near future, he looks forward to furthering his manual skills and supplementing his education with continuing education courses in Maitland and myofascial release. Craig has an ultimate goal to become a Certified Orthopedic Manual Therapist.

Healthy Hearing With Folic Acid In a world where the word “healthy” is tossed around like a salad, it’s easy to be overwhelmed by information about your well-being. To make things simpler for you, we’ve served up some easy-to-digest facts about diet and hearing health. Folate is naturally found in food, whereas folic acid is manmade from folate. This B vitamin is proven to help prevent high-frequency hearing loss, which is the varying inability to perceive high-pitched sounds and consonants. Folic acid decreases the amount of the amino acid homocysteine in your blood by increasing the creation of red blood cells. Too much homocysteine causes hearing difficulty by reducing blood flow to the inner ear. Folic acid is also useful in preventing heart disease, stroke, and dementia.

folic acid every day for good health. It is easy to increase your daily intake of the nutrient by eating more of foods like beans, citrus fruits, enriched grains, and dark leafy vegetables. To make it easier, in January 1998, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) began requiring manufacturers to add folic acid to food that is labeled as “enriched.” Increasing your intake can be as simple as rolling out of bed and grabbing a quick breakfast.

Just a cup of enriched breakfast cereal with one cup of 1 percent milk, plus three-quarters of a cup of OJ on the side, will put you at 32 percent of your daily requirement of folic acid in one meal.

Talk about starting your day off right!

Folic acid-rich foods like spinach, avocado, strawberries, broccoli, and cantaloupe are hearing helpful foods.

AMI Foundation 10th Annual Tools For Schools Drive

By Kimberly Bosco

LISTEN ON WOBM AM 1160 & 1310

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

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 find 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.

H ERE ’ S T O Y OUR H EALTH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

St. John’s Wort, Serotonin And Depression

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. St. John’s wort is a beautiful plant with yellow flowers known to ease depression. It’s banned in some countries though.

For a long time, “hypericin,” a compound in the plant was thought to help with the blues, however scientists are noting that another compound in the plant called “hyperforin” plays an even bigger role.

St. John’s wort increases the activity of serotonin. But serotonin isn’t the be-all, end-all of happy brain chemicals. Some research suggests that depression is really tied to dopamine deficiency. If you’d like to understand more about that brain chemical, read my other article posted at my website. It’s called, Have You Stopped Enjoying Life? It Could be Low Dopamine.

Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors are dubbed “SSRIs” and these medications increase serotonin activity in your brain. You know them as Prozac, Lexapro, Zoloft and others. Taking SSRI antidepressants along with St. John’s wort is dangerous and the combination should be avoided.

It’s fascinating that St. John’s wort has anti-inflammatory properties similar to a popular drug called Celebrex! This is fascinating. Research has demonstrated that inflammatory chemicals in the brain are high in depressed patients. In fact, some researchers even believe that brain inflammation is the primary cause of depression, with the neurotransmitter changes coming later. It’s possible that this anti-inflammatory action of St. John’s wort could help with depression in addition to its ability to increase serotonin activity. Which reminds me of a warning…

If you combine prescription antidepressants with St. John’s wort, it can be dangerous and may lead to “Serotonin Syndrome,” which is

a medical crisis. Serotonin has to be in balance with other brain chemicals, so the message here is “more is not always better.” Symptoms of the syndrome include increased heart rate and blood pressure, fever, diarrhea, and muscle rigidity. When severe, serotonin syndrome causes seizures, irregular heartbeat, faintness or unconsciousness, and even death.

There are allergies associated with any herb including this one. Finally, due to changes in your liver enzymes, be extremely careful with this herb (or preferably avoid it) if you take any of the following: • Oral Contraceptives • Warfarin • Digoxin • Theophylline • Indinavir • Cyclosporine Treatment for severe depression is not as easy as popping a single pill, or an herbal remedy.

St. John’s wort doesn’t even work well for severe cases.

If you’re feeling depressed, please make sure that you get professional help and make lifestyle or relationship changes if necessary. Depression can lead to fatal consequences and should be taken seriously by everyone in the family. It is fleeting for some of you, and life-long for others. Anhedonia and suicide are linked to severe depression. A friend of a friend committed suicide this past month, and I knew and liked him. I’m sad about this, and so I’m prompted to write this article today. Be sure to tell your loved ones and friends just how much you need them in your life. Treat everyone, even new acquaintances with kindness, you have no idea what they’re suffering with. One kind word, or special text can make all the difference to a person who is empty inside.

Dear Joel, My buddy and I decided to go to lunch at our favorite serve yourself buffet.

Kathy, a coworker invited herself along.

Once we got a plate she started right in, “We’ll sit at that table, the napkins are over there, you don’t need any salt, it’s not good for you.” All this before I even had my fi rst bite. Can you think of something snappy I could say to put her in her place?

Answer Her behavior is certainly unsavory.

I would remind her that you picked a buffet for lunch because you and your buddy like to make choices. Tell her lunch is your downtime; a peaceful hour in the day when you don’t have to do

any thing but pick what you want and enjoy it. You might be polite and thank her for her concern, but remind her that you are an adult.

Adults know that cookies for dinner are bad, but having them for dinner is a perk of being a grown-up. Tell her that being stressed out over lunch is just as bad as adding salt, then tell her you didn’t order “being bossed around” as a side dish.

Susan G. Komen Central & South Jersey’s More Than Pink Walk

JACKSON – Susan G. Komen Central and South Jersey (Komen CSNJ) introduced its inaugural MORE THAN PINK Walk fundraiser, an event that pays tribute to 25 years the organization has made an impact in the lives of those affected by breast cancer in central and southern New Jersey.

The event takes place on Sunday, November 4 at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, New Jersey. Komen CSNJ was selected to be one of eight locations across the country to pilot test this new fundraiser, evolved from the Race for the Cure series. Along with a new name, the event will include a fresh look and experience focused on the lifesaving work that Komen’s CSNJ supporters make possible.

“Much of what you have come to love about the Race for the Cure will continue with our new MORE THAN PINK Walk,” said Suzanne Corson, Komen CSNJ’s Executive Director. “These changes are intended to increase people’s connections to our work beyond breast cancer awareness.”

The new MORE THAN PINK Walk commemorates the organization’s rich history of making an impact in the community.

Twenty-five years ago, a group of dedicated volunteers came together to start the very first Race for the Cure fundraiser in central and southern New Jersey, and this passion evolved to the formation of Komen CSNJ. Thanks to incredible fundraisers, donors, volunteers, and sponsors since then, Komen CSNJ has invested $15 million in community breast cancer health programs in its 13-county service area and has helped contribute $920 million invested globally in research.

The MORE THAN PINK Walk will provide a personal and emotional experience highlighting a greater sense of community for all who attend, focusing on walking together, taking action and what it means to be “more than pink.”

“We’re excited about this new chapter and encou rage ever yone to register and begin fundraising,” said Corson.

“We look forward to seeing everyone walking on November 4 for a day of inspiration and hope in support of all those living with breast cancer, and to celebrate the lives of those who we’ve lost to the disease.”

For more information on this event, what changes to expect, and online registration please visit our website at komencsnj.org/25years.

Writer: Continued From Page 1 Krieger who lives in a rocket ship in her backyard and plots revenge against those allegedly conspiring to get her kicked out of prep school while she must suffer in public school. What did you decide about Astrid? Any more books on the horizon?

DI: Astrid Krieger is a character I’ve long loved and I was searching for the right way to tell a story about her. I had written a series of short stories about her life and when I got the opportunity to write a whole novel, I was very excited. I’m incredibly proud of that book.

But, writing books take forever and it’s hard to balance that and my other work.

So, yes, more books in my future, but it’s moving slow.

JSO: You said in an L.A. Times interview, where you were talking about Firecracker, that you like writing female characters. You wrote the screenplay for “The Spy Who Dumped Me” with Susanna Fogel, who also directed the f ilm. How did you and Susanna come up with the story of Audrey and Morgan, and was it always going to be “Audrey and Morgan” (female leads)?

Did you write them with Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon in mind?

DI: Yes, I have spent a lot of my career writing strong female characters, as has Susanna, so writing about these great friends felt natural for both of us.

Very shortly after we came up with the idea for the movie, the characters were almost fully formed in our heads and writing them was a lot of fun.

No, we didn’t write them specifically for Mila and Kate but the characters

expanded and adapted once we spent more time with Mila and Kate and we shaped them to those actors.

JSO: What projects do you have lined up?

DI: I’m working on a bunch of fun things… but they’re all secret.

JSO: Neither you nor your wife are from Los Angeles. (David is married to award-win ning taxider mist Allis Markham, originally from Madison, Indiana.) What fond memories do you hold of growing up in Freehold, and do you ever get back here to visit? What are your thoughts of the township, and the area in in general, now that you live elsewhere?

DI: Morgan, Kate’s character in The Spy Who Dumped Me, is actually from Freehold as we discover in one scene that I will not spoil. My parents, sister, brother-in-law, nephew and niece all live in Manalapan, so I try to visit them at least once a year. My great-grandfather moved to Freehold in the 1920s so my roots in central Jersey run deep. It’s very much a part of my identity, though I’ve unlearned my accent (“wuh-ter,” “cawfee.”)

When I visit I venture almost immediately to Chinese food at Szechuan Star on Route 9 and then, for my next meal, pizza at Federici’s.

When you live in LA and are from New Jersey, you get a lot of “Oh, you’re from New Jersey, do you know [some town I’ve never heard of ]?” and then you say, “No,” and then there’s not much to talk about after that.

File The Trade Name With The Ocean County Clerk OCEAN COUNTY – Ocean County residents interested in starting a new business can file the Trade Name with the Ocean County Clerk’s office.

“As part of National Small Business Week which runs from April 29 to May 5 we want to encourage Ocean County residents who are starting a business to visit either our Toms River or Stafford Township locations,” said Ocean County Clerk Scott M. Colabella. “We see people daily filing for Trade Names. I applaud them for wanting to invest in their future here in Ocean County.”

Last year more than 500 individuals from Ocean County had their trade name certificate recorded at the County Clerk’s Office as they joined thousands of Americans across the nation in starting a new business.

Individuals conducting or transacting business under any assumed name or designation are required to file a business trade name certificate with the County Clerk’s

Office.

Applicants simply complete a registration form, which states the name, nature, address of the business and the names/ residence addresses of the business owners.

The registration form must be notarized and the fee is $50. Banks or financial institutions require a Trade Name Certificate when opening business accounts.

“The staff at the County Clerk’s Office can help you with this process,” said Ocean County Freeholder John P. Kelly, who serves as liaison to the Ocean County Clerk.

If you are thinking about starting a new business, go to the County Clerk website at clerk.co.ocean.nj.us/tradenames.htm or visit the Clerk’s Toms River Office at 118 Washington St., or the Manahawkin office at 179 South Main St. You can also call the offices at 732-506-5198 or 609-597-1500 for further information.

“So much goes into starting a new business,” said Ocean County Freeholder Director Gerry P. Little. “The Ocean County Clerk and his staff are there to help with this important step.”

Adopt-A-Senior Raises Money For Senior Communities JACKSON – Adopt-A-Senior will be hosting a fundraiser on September 22, 2018 at the Knights of Columbus Hall on Bartley Rd. in Jackson from 2 to 4:30 p.m. Come out to help raise money to purchase gifts for local seniors!

Adopt-A-Senior is a local nonprofit organization located in Jackson that aims to make sure that seniors are never forgotten.

Members visit local long-term care facilities each month and bring a personalized gift to celebrate the residents who have a birthday during the month. They bring a card, a special gift that the resident has requested, and a balloon, and sing them a lovely rendition of the Happy Birthday song on kazoos.

Not only does Adopt-A-Senior work to make seniors’ birthdays bright, but they also work hard to make sure the holidays are too.

During December, members hand deliver gifts to the residents that are on their wish lists. For these seniors, these occasions are just a reminder that they are alone.

In September, the organization was delivering gifts to 800 seniors. Now, they are reaching nearly 1,200 seniors!

Adopt-A-Senior can only exist through awareness and donations. They are always looking for volunteers to help bring smiles to the seniors and improve the quality of their lives. Join the group for a fundraiser on September 22 to contribute to the cause!

If you are interested in volunteering or want more information, visit their website at adopt-a-senior.org.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of Aug 4 - Aug 10

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): It may be challenging to appear cooperative as this week unfolds. You might be tempted to express your rebelliousness by spending money impulsively.

Someone might see you as the answer to their fantasies.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): There would be no butterflies if nothing ever changed.

Once you make your bed you must lie in it, but the truth is that once you have rested you will have to make the bed again. Learn to be flexible in the week ahead.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You hope everyone thinks you are intelligent, but a scholar’s mortarboard or diploma isn’t a prerequisite. You won’t need to go too far out of your way to appear bright, sharp, and capable in the week to come.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): It could be difficult to compromise your principles and ethics in the week ahead. You might not agree with everyone in your circle or community, but you will do the right thing when it is solely a personal choice.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Use your gift for gab and originality of thought to convince others of the value of your ideas. Lighthearted teasing and sharing whimsical experiences can be acceptable in some of the most businesslike settings this week.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your home is a haven of happiness. Workplace emergencies are easily handled. Don’t let passing power struggles get under your skin this week. Escape to a soft couch and home cooked meal, surrounded by loved ones.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You may be mesmerized by mysteries. In the upcoming week you may be attracted to someone or something because you are fascinated by intrigue. Dig up the facts to reveal every secret so that you are completely informed.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You have the power to design your own attitudes, beliefs and choices. Although the news may be negative, and the tone may be pessimistic you have the ability to be a positive force in the world in the week ahead.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You may dance to the rhythm of romance in the week to come. Every opportunity to bask in admiration will make your life a little brighter. New friends and contacts may help you realize your dreams.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You can’t control what happens in your life, but you can always control what you do with what happens in your life. Honor the rules and remain aboveboard in the week ahead. Steer clear of anything of questionable integrity.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Keep a toothbrush and toothpaste handy if you are going to look a gift horse in the mouth. Accept whatever comes your way with good grace, and scrutinize it, but don’t push your luck too far in the week ahead.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Pay it forward. Offering a little kindness won’t detract from your own forward progress and might even make you feel more confident about your own selfworth. Do something nice for someone this week.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen Can’t Stand The (Outdoor) Heat?

Get Back In The Kitchen

By Wolfgang Puck Just about everybody is familiar with some variation on that old expression, “If you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen.”

It has been attributed to plain-speaking President Harry Truman, who used it to explain his attitude about the need to handle the pressure of important government work.

Nowadays, I often hear people using the saying more literally. They’ll tell me that they love to cook outdoors at this time of year because their kitchens get too hot to prepare a meal comfortably indoors.

Honestly, I don’t always think that’s true.

First of all, anyone who has spent any time at all attending to a well-heated grill will confi rm that cooking that way can feel like uncomfortably hot work. Add the fact that most kitchens nowadays are usually well ventilated to whisk heat away and, more often than not, air-conditioned, and you have a fairly convincing argument for staying indoors at times when the weather outside is just too hot for grilling - as I suspect it is right now in many parts of the country.

Still, I don’t mean to suggest that anybody should spend more time than they need to in the kitchen during summer.

That is why I would like you to consider steaming your dinner for a change.

As you read this, you might find that your eyebrows have risen at the mention of steaming.

That’s a perfectly natural response, because most people associate the word “steam” with hot and humid weather. In fact, however, steaming doesn’t really heat up your home kitchen all that much.

To prepare a main dish like my steamed fish fillets with lemon pepper and mixed vegetables, all you have to do is bring water to a boil in a single saute pan, and then steam the ingredients for little more than 10 minutes.

(You might also want to steam some rice in another saucepan to go with your meal; or choose the even less heat-producing option of using an automatic electric rice cooker on your countertop.)

Cooking a meal this way isn’t likely to work up much of a sweat at all. And, contrary to the belief that steamed food is bland, the results are surprisingly delicious, scented by fresh herbs, peppercorns, salt, lemon zest and pepper. I also add another delicious note by drizzling each cooked fillet with a little olive oil at serving time, which releases a wonderful aroma on contact with the steaming-hot fish.

Try this once and I know you’ll be tempted to make it again, experimenting with your own favorite combinations of seafood, vegetables, and seasonings!

STEAMED FISH FILLETS W/ LEMON PEPPER AND MIXED VEGETABLES Serves 4 8 fresh chervil or parsley sprigs 2 lemons, cut crosswise into thin slices, seeds removed 1/2 teaspoon whole black peppercorns Kosher salt 4 skinless fillets fresh firm white fish, such as halibut or cod, each 4 to 6 ounces (125 to 285 g) 4 medium-sized carrots, peeled, trimmed, and cut into long matchsticks about 1/4 inch (6 mm) thick 2 cups (500 mL) bite-sized broccoli florets 8 medium-sized mushrooms, wiped clean with a damp paper towel, stems trimmed Freshly ground black pepper 4 teaspoons freshly grated lemon zest Extra-virgin olive oil, for serving Fresh lemon wedges, for serving Select a large, wide saute pan with straight sides, plus a steaming basket large enough to sit securely on top of it, clear of the water.

Add 2 to 3 inches of cold water to the pan, and add to the water 4 of the chervil or parsley sprigs, a couple of lemon slices, the whole black peppercorns, and a generous pinch of kosher salt. Without yet placing the steamer basket on top of the pan, bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.

Meanwhile, arrange the remaining lemon slices in the middle of the steamer basket, forming a surface large enough to hold the fish fillets in a single layer. Place the fish on top of the lemon slices. Arrange the carrots, broccoli and mushrooms evenly around the perimeter of the basket alongside the fish. Sprinkle the fillets evenly with a little salt and freshly ground black pepper, and then sprinkle them evenly with the lemon zest.

As soon as the water is boiling, reduce the heat to maintain an even simmer, carefully place the steamer on top of the pan, and cover the steamer with its lid. Steam the fish until the fillets look opaque, the tip of a thin knife can be inserted evenly into one, and the fillet can be separated into firm but moist flakes, about 10 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets. (When lifting off the steamer lid to check, be especially careful to lift the lid away from you, keeping your hands, arms and face clear of the hot steam as it escapes.)

To serve, turn off the heat and carefully remove the basket from the pan, then carefully lift off the lid. With a spatula, gently lift each fillet and transfer it to a heated serving plate. With a large serving spoon or tongs, distribute the vegetables evenly among the plates. Lightly drizzle a little olive oil over each fillet. Garnish each plate with lemon wedges and the remaining parsley or chervil sprigs, and serve immediately.
