Charges Dropped, Local Man Wants To Clear His Name

By Chris Lundy LAKEHURST – If you Google “Mark Coleman New Jersey,” you’ll get articles about a man who was charged with threatening to kill his girlfriend and sexually assaulted her.

The charges were dropped, but the articles remain.

Mark Coleman, 25, is living in Freehold now, but lived in Lakehurst at the time of his 2017 arrest.

By Jennifer Peacock MANCHESTER – Manchester High School reached two milestones this past graduation: its first-ever graduate going to West Point, and another going to Princeton University.

“As the mayor and an alumnus of Manchester schools, I am thrilled to see two incredible Manchester students be admitted to two of the most prestigious and exclusive colleges in the world. While I don’t personally know either student, I am very proud and wish them the best on their bright futures,” Mayor Kenneth Palmer told The Manchester Times.

before entering The United States Military Academy, more commonly referred to as West Point.

Cuber is the first Manchester Township High School graduate to be accepted there.

“Since I was young kid, I wanted to join Army,” James said. “One of my friends, his dad is a West Point graduate. He told me about it. I wanted to go.”

James, who participated in the JROTC and varsity baseball, started his application process his junior year, securing a nomination by a local official, getting the

on science. The star athlete - track and field, cross country, and soccer - thought about pursuing a career in medicine because of his love of science.

On a whim, he applied to a spate of Ivy League schools. Of those, he was accepted to UPenn and Princeton.

He was at Barnes & Noble in Brick with a friend when he got the emails announcing each respective school’s decision. Lacaurta said the Ivies send out their decisions at the same time.

“I wasn’t expecting to get in. I was in the book store with another person to laugh at the rejections. I couldn’t really freak out because I was in public,” Kenzo said.

While he initially wanted to go away to

school, Kenzo settled on Princeton because of its proximity to home and generous financial aid package he was offered.

“I do feel proud. I hope it shows the younger kids that it is possible to get into schools like that,” Kenzo said. “Hopefully it will put Manchester on the map.”

Kenzo’s father, Gerald, said he didn’t realize his son had even applied to Princeton, but was happy with the news.

“Of course we are very happy to hear about it. We were surprised. We didn’t know he was applying for Princeton,” Gerald said.

“And of course we were very happy and very thankful. This is a good opportunity for him.”

But it took a while to get to the court.

“I was in jail for six months waiting for that, with no bail, like a murderer,” he said.

He was in the maximum security tier. He was involved in multiple fights. People in jail don’t like men accused of rape.

“My take on it: When you’re in a position to be in a jail like that, it’s comforting to have someone there they can look down on.

It makes them feel better about the reasons they are there,” he said.

He had been working for a construction

company at the time of his arrest. He lost that job due to the arrest, but was able to find new work quickly after his release.

Now that he’s free, he wants to put it all behind him, and clear his name, when an article on the internet can linger forever.

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY Letters To The Editor

F eatured L etter

Let’s “Drain Letters To The Editor

Not Enough Water For All This Development During the last part of Gov. Christie’s administration, the NJ Department of Environmental Protection released their “Water Management Act” of 2017. This program was last published in 1996 and was supposed to be done every 5 years. Now we are 22 years behind, and much has changed in this state since 1996.

With ever-growing development planned and executed since then, our water forecast looks grim. With ever more construction planned in Ocean County alone, i.e. from Manchester (at the Heritage Minerals site) to Forked River in Lacey Township (plans are to add 30,000 new residents), in Barnegat (another 20,000), and in Manahawkin, Stafford Township, the Walters Homes Co. plans to bring development to the intersection of Route 9 and Route 72. Just considering traffic issues and not just during the summer months when tourists want to reach the shore towns - we here in Ocean County are already choking on traffic year-round and the state does not have the resources to fund all new roads.

The Water Management Act of 2017 clearly states that there will be clean drinking water shortages in many areas of New Jersey. Our area suffers from a water deficit by 58.8 MGD (million gallons per day) in Maurice, Salem and

Cohansey Water Management Area. We may be out of water by 2020 and so will be some northern areas near the Delaware Water Gap and on the east in Hudson, Hackensack, Middle Passaic, Whippany and Rockaway WMA. And with water shortages, these new homes in planned development areas will turn on their spigot with NO water coming out! That will bring in saltwater intrusion with rotting water and sewer lines, rotting indoor plumbing including washing machines, hot water heaters and certainly complete failure of private wells.

Records show that in 1950, Lacey Township had 966 residents! Of course that changed after Oyster Creek was built and lower property taxes brought in many new residents. Union Township had 1,173 people, Stafford had 1,347 people, and Jackson Twp. had 3,513 residents according to Ocean County records. Now one has to wonder what lack of clean drinking water will hold for the future in these areas. Remember, the date for lack of water is forecasted to be close: 2020 (A year and a half from now!)

The Swamp” In Toms River

While many of the residents of Toms River are having a hard time trying to afford their healthcare payments, people with political connections are able to obtain healthcare cheaply.

If you are powerful Republican or Democrat looking for cheap benefits, you can get appointed a commissioner on the Toms River Municipal Utilities Authority. Once appointed, you can receive $24,852 worth of health insurance for only $1,028 a year. A commissioner on the MUA doesn’t even work full time. They attend monthly meetings that last about 30 minutes for which they receive a salary of $2,000 plus benefits.

Governor Christie attempted to end this abuse of political power by not allowing part-time political appointees to participate in the state health program.

Unfortunately, the Toms River Council and MUA found a way to get around this by going with a private health carrier.

The MUA Commission should be a volunteer board just like all the rest of the boards in Toms River. People serve on the Planning Board, Board of Adjustment and the Board of Education without pay or any benefits.

It is time for Toms River Council to pass an ordinance removing these benefits and stop rewarding their friends.

The Cost Of Socialism

The daily discussion of Socialism’s and Democratic Socialism’s pros and cons on cable news channels and in newspapers has been very interesting to my husband and me. We had the good fortune to take a Baltic Sea cruise recently to many of the countries being used as examples of what can be accomplished under Democratic Socialism. I thought your readers might be interested in information given by local tour guides on our daily 2-3 hour city trips.

In Copenhagen, Denmark the guide informed us that purchasing a new car required paying a 150% tax on it to the government.

Therefore, the true cost of a $30,000 vehicle is $75,000 after the $45,000 tax is paid.

The number of bicycles used by residents of Copenhagen may be as much a financial decision by a family as the environmental decision usually given as a reason for the large use of them in the city.

The guide in Stockholm, Sweden, also brought up their tax structure during our city tour. Sweden has a cradle to grave care system.

She informed us that when a child is born the parents receive $129 every month to purchase food for the child until they are 16 years old. All children can go to university but only those that have high academic ability will be going for free. Parents of children not meeting the academic ability requirements can

Make Yourself Heard

The people of Manchester face an array of issues – taxes, traffic, the environment, education. Issues that will impact Manchester for years to come. And no doubt you have something to say about them. So what can you do to ensure that your voice gets heard?

First and foremost, town cou ncil meetings. Let

your officials know you’re watching.

You can also write letters to the editor to papers like ours. People follow their local papers and by writing about important issues, you spark vital discussion on topics that affect your life.

Don’t allow yours to be a lone voice in the wilderness.

Make yourself heard.

still send their children to university but will pay for it themselves. In order to pay for these programs along with many others there is a progressive tax system in Sweden. The lowest tax rate is 15% and the guide did not mention if anyone was ever exempted from this lowest rate. The highest rate is 58%. Someone in the front of the bus must have asked the guide’s feelings about paying these tax rates, because she said “We are just used to it.” I wondered, too, myself whether a professional athlete making $10 million in the United States would “get used to” giving $5,800,000 to the government to spend as it wished.

Between now and the upcoming November elections we will be bombarded with promises, accusations, and “misspoken” statements from and about candidates and various programs and projects. Each voter will have to decide if they are willing to “get used to” paying the taxes needed to support cradle to grave programs or if they prefer to vote for another candidate more aligned to their fiscal thinking.

Barbara Kochie Brick Editor’s note: Some research online showed that the most expensive cars are taxed at 150 percent.

Cheaper models are 85 percent. There are more complicated details about this that can be found online.

The $30,000 example that the author uses would likely be taxed at 85 percent rather than 150 percent. Still a very large tax, but stated for the sake of accuracy.

Association Shouldn’t Fine For Feeding Animals I am a resident of Village III for 12 years. I own a quad but not the land as the Board of Health pointed out.

You can’t feed the cats that are thrown out when their mama dies. The association has no rules or programs for the animals that are thrown out but, boy oh boy, do they make money with fines.

The animals that live here should be accounted for, that they have their shots, are fixed, and even a picture of who will take them when mama dies.

But all the association wants is money. They get rich on fines.

The association sticks a piece of paper to sign before you move in saying you will not feed the animals. The cruelty is unbelievable. We are in the middle of the woods.

The bookkeeper says there is “plenty to eat” in the woods (sticks, dirt, stones).

It’s your neighbor who reports you of course. They get benefits like a new roof right away.

After the association fines you to death, they call the Board of Health which is another $500 first time fine (don’t our taxes pay the Board of Health?) It’s horrible for the animals and us.

I know a lot of people don’t care for the animals, but they would never let them starve. I am allergic to cats but I called over 200 places and every one is full. Please fix your cat.

The association has no place to put the animals and neither does the Board of Health. But of course, they couldn’t fine you then.

Bipartisan Congressional Leaders Want To Extend Life-Saving AIDS Relief Program From The Desk Of

Congressman

Chris Smith WASHINGTON, D.C. – A bipartisan group of senior congressional members,

led by Rep Chris Smith (R-4 th) and Rep Barbara Lee (D-CA), introduced

legislation, HR 6651, that would extend the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) for another five years.

Sm it h a nd L e e we re joi ned by or ig i nal co sponsors Reps Ed Royce (R-CA), Eliot Engel (DNY), Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL) and Karen Bass (D-CA).

The cosponsors of the bill released the following statement: “PEPFA R has been a spectacularly successful program that has saved the lives of many, particularly in Africa and the rest of the developing world.

Started under President George W. Bush and continued for the last 15 years

under both Republican and Democratic administrations, PEPFAR is a statement of bipartisan resolve to better the lives of those suffering from HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria.

“Our strong, bipartisan proposal to extend the program for another five years is particularly important in this politically

polarized time, and we call upon our colleagues in the House and the Senate to put aside partisan differences and find common ground.”

With the current PEPFAR authorization expiring at the end of September, the six legislators vowed to maintain consensus and seek quick passage of the bill.

Menendez, Booker Announce Over $28M in Federal Funding Capitol Comments Senator Robert Menendez

Capitol Comments Senator Cory Booker

NEWARK – U.S. Senators Bob Menendez and Cory Booker (both D-N.J.) announced a combined $28,106,756 in grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Community Planning and Development (CPD) Program to revitalize struggling communities, expand afford-

able housing and services to low-income individuals and families, and prevent homelessness.

“Revitalizing New Jersey’s struggling communities takes a comprehensive approach that recognizes the importance of safe, affordable housing, economic opportunity and the services individuals and

families need to overcome obstacles and secure their future,” said Sen. Menendez, the ranking member of the Senate Subcommittee on Housing, Transportation, and Community Development. “That’s why I’ve always fought for the resources our local communities need to transform their visions into reality.”

“All New Jerseyans deserve the stability and the dignity of a roof over their head,” said Sen. Booker. “During my days as a housing advocate and later as Mayor of Newark, I saw firsthand the challenges families face in trying to secure safe and affordable housing.

Federal investments like this are vital to lifting up our most vulnerable communities and creating a stronger and more prosperous future for all New Jerseyans.”

The CPD Program consists of

Continued From Page 1 16 passes defended, including 14 breakups, for the Hawks. He ranked fifth in the NCAA in passes defended and posted 43 total tackles, including 33 solo stops.

He played in 11 games, picked off two passes and made 4 1/2 tackles for 11 yards lost. He blocked one kick.

Other local players on the Hawks’ roster are Freehold resident Ryan Wetzel, a senior offensive lineman and a first team selection out of Colts Neck; graduate student Vinny Grasso, a wide receiver from Donovan Catholic, senior wide receiver Matt Castronuova (Jackson Memorial), sophomore running back Mike Gawlik (Jackson Memorial), freshman offensive lineman Scott Prendergast (Howell), sophomore defensive back Brady Watson (Brick Memorial), sophomore offensive lineman Justin Szuba (Brick Memorial), junior defensive lineman Adam Kakar (Toms River North) and freshman wide receiver Eddie Morales (Howell).

Berry, Wetzel, named an all-conference first team offensive lineman, and others were honored at the annual Big South Conference Football Media Day at the Renaissance Suites Hotel in Charlotte, N.C. The honorees were chosen in a vote of the league’s head coaches and a media panel.

“It means a lot to be recognized by my peers and the other coaches,” Berry said on the Hawks’ Facebook page at the event.

Grasso was second on the Hawks in reception last year with 29 for 315 yards.

He blazed 66 yards with a punt return for a touchdown. He rushed for 79 yards and one touchdown on three carries. He returned two kickoffs for 23 yards. He appeared in 12 games.

Castronuova hauled in six passes for 34 yards in 2017 and returned five kickoffs for 98 yards. He returned one punt for four yards. He plated in 12 games.

Kakar made six tackles, including three solos, in 10 games.

The Hawks were selected to finish second in the 2018 Big South Preseason Poll, their highest predicted finish since joining the league in 2014.

Monmouth, which finished second a season ago in the conference at 4-1, earned 82 total points and one first place vote. Defending Big South champion Kennesaw State received 17 of a possible 18 first place votes and garnered 107 points.

The poll’s voters were the league’s head coaches and a media panel.

The Hawks return 16 starters, including 10 on offense, from last year’s NCAA Playoff team, which was 9-3 overall.

Kevin Callahan, who is in his 26th season as the lone head coach in program history, ranks 10th among active NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision coaches with 144 wins - all at the West Long Branch school.

“Our mentality is that we have to be better than we were last season,” Berry

said. “We want to get over that hump.”

Berry hopes to fill the void created by the loss of standout defensive back Mike Basile (Brick Memorial) and others to graduation. Berry said taking on the team’s high-powered offense in practice will improve his play.

“Going against our offensive players will make me better,” he said. “When it is game time, they will make me better.

We have a lot of young guys taking a lot of reps (repetitions) in the defensive backfield. They are stepping up and trying to fill the void that we lost.”

Berry said he enjoys playing for the Hawks.

“From the improved facilities to the players to what we do to get ready for the season the only way to go is up,” he said. “Go Hawks.”

Monmouth will open its regular season Saturday, Aug. 31, at Eastern Michigan University at 6:30 p.m. The game will air on ESPN+. The Hawks will host Hampton University in their home opener Saturday, Sept. 8, at Kessler Stadium.

Beverette signs: Former Lakewood standout Tyrice Beverette has signed a contract with the Cincinnati Bengals.

The safety tried out for the team as an undrafted free agent in rookie minicamp.

He also tried out for the New York Jets.

Beverette, a former Stony Brook University defensive back, is on the Bengals’ 90-man roster. The team cut a player to make room for Beverette, a 6-foot, 210-pound safety. He is one of eight defensive backs, including rookie second round draft pick Jessie Bates, in camp.

Beverette, who hopes to be on the Bengals’ regular season roster, clocked a 4.26 in the short shuttle, which would have placed him fifth among all safeties invited to the NFL Combine.

Beverette was a three-year starter at Stony Brook where he earned third team All-Colonial Athletic Association honors last season as a senior. He was a second team All-CAA selection as a junior.

Thor in NFL: Ira Thor, a Howell Township Board of Education member, has been named the New York Jets’ new crew chief and head statistician.

“The Jets called me and asked if I would consider taking a gameday role on their staff,” said Thor, who is in his first year of a three-year term. “Four years ago, my Sundays changed forever and I got to live a dream when I became the permanent internal public address announcer for the New York Giants. Now, I will work on gamedays for both teams. It’s cool to work for both teams.”

Thor, a Fair Lawn graduate, is the Director of Athletic Communications and Marketing at New Jersey City University.

“I have been truly blessed with great opportunities in my career,” he said, “and am ext remely g ratef ul for yet another one. My Sundays will be busy from August through December and hopefully into January, but I wouldn’t change a thing.”

Thor played on the boys soccer and boys volleyball teams at Fair Lawn High School. He was on the Cutters’ volleyball

team which won the first NJSIAA state title in 1995. He played club volleyball in college.

“I just know the game (football) and have a broadcasting background,” Thor said.

Thor coaches recreational soccer and basketball teams in Howell and coaches traveling soccer in Colts Neck.

Off to college: Senior tight end-defensive end Sean Morris of the Barnegat Bengals has committed to Holy Cross of NCAA Division I-AA. Morris fielded three Division I-A and 14 Division I-AA offers before choosing the New England school.

Papcun packs pop: Brick resident Pete Papcun finished the season in a two-way tie for second on the Hawks’ baseball team in home runs with eight.

The former Christian Brothers Academy player wound up in a two-way tie for first on the club in doubles with 12 and had the slugging percentage (.503) on the club among the regulars. He was third on the club in runs batted in with 36 and hit one triple. He scored 20 runs.

The ex-Colt batted .258 (40-for-155).

He played in 44 games and started 41 as the Hawks were 30-25 overall, including 16-7 in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference.

Teammate Chris Hawryluk, a sophomore from Jackson Memorial, saw limited action in relief.

Monmouth’s director of Baseball Operations was former Toms River South standout Jeff Barbalinardo, who starred for the Hawks. He has also served as a Monmouth assistant coach.

While hearing loss is most commonly caused by prolonged exposure to loud noises – also referred to as sensorineural hearing loss – a number of medical conditions can lead to hearing impairment as well. Fortunately, some of these medical conditions are reversible, allowing hearing to become fully restored.

Current research is finding strong associations between hearing loss and cardiovascular disease, diabetes, smoking, obesity and dementia. But many lesser-known conditions can impact your hearing health in potentially serious ways. Here are a few of them: 1. Blood Conditions: Poor blood flow is typically the result of circulatory system troubles and can restrict the flow of oxygen to the inner ear. Conditions affecting blood flow include sickle-cell anemia, diabetes and heart conditions. Things like high blood pressure, hypercoagulability and polycythemia can also cause blood related hearing loss.

2. Infections: Meningitis, a bacterial or fungal infection of the brain and spinal cord, can cause sudden hearing loss. Hearing loss is also a side effect of treatment of tuberculosis – though it is possible that the medication used in treatment is what causes the impairment. Both hearing loss and tinnitus are common side effects of Lyme disease (carried by ticks), as well as some STDs, like syphilis.

3. Disease: Ménière’s disease, a disorder of the fluids in the inner ear, is one of the most common causes of hearing loss. Its root is unknown, and the disease typically affects only one ear in individuals between

ages 20 and 50. Other issues known to affect hearing include hypothyroidism (an underactive thyroid), kidney disease medications, Paget’s disease and autoimmune inner ear disease, which results in sudden onset hearing loss and must be treated as a medical emergency.

4. Hereditary Conditions: Hearing loss may run in your family. Some serious genetic disorders, such as Waardenburg syndrome, cause the head and internal organs to develop differently, which may result in hearing loss that is difficult to correct through treatment or surgery. Other conditions, like otosclerosis, affect the bones in the middle ear that conduct sound to the cochlea; some of these conditions are correctable with surgery.

5. Tumors and Cancer: Cancers of the head, neck or ear areas can affect the inner ear, but cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiation, are also notorious for causing hearing loss. Some recent research out of the U.K. suggests that aspirin can help prevent permanent hearing loss as a side effect of the cancer drug cisplatin, but further research is necessary. Acoustic neuromas and tumors that grow on the auditory nerve can cause hearing loss or tinnitus, and they may put pressure on the brain, leading to other conditions. Both are usually benign and can be removed surgically.

H ere ’ s T o Y our H ealth Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Help In Case You’re Losing Your Mind

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. Don’t you hate it when you’re introduced and you can’t remember the person’s name?

What about remembering whether or not you already told someone that story? It’s like one day you go from young to old!

This stuff seems to happen more and more as you age. Why does it happen to some of us, and not to others? I’ve wondered. I think it has to do with elevated homocysteine, at least in part. Emerging research about homocysteine connects it to neurofibrillary tangles, and those are associated with progressive memory disorders like Alzheimer’s.

Did you know that NSAIDs and oral contraceptives are strong drug muggers of folate? If you deplete folate (vitamin B9), you block your methylation cycle, homocysteine builds up and memory becomes impaired.

Perhaps maintaining brain function is related to declining levels of another B vitamin called “methylcobalamin.” It’s also known as vitamin B12, a nutrient that is manufactured by your intestinal flora.

Today, health food stores and online e-tailers offer various supplements that you can buy over-the-counter, but of course ask your doctor what’s right for you. I couldn’t possibly know what’s right for each of you and this article reaches million of people, so again, find out if these simple nutritional fixes are ideal for you: Acetyl L-Carnitine - The amino acid Acetyl-L-Carnitine crosses the blood-brain barrier more readily than regular plain L-Carnitine, and it helps the body make acetylcholine, the brain’s super neurotransmitter that is necessary for healthy mood and optimal cognitive function, as well as muscle health, a side benefit.

Lion’s Mane - A 2014 study concluded that Lion’s Mane promotes the growth of nerve cells in the brain. Lion’s mane increases NGF (Nerve Growth Factor), which then encourages the growth of new neurites.

NGF encourages neurons to connect to each other, communicate better and simply put, this helps you learn faster and remember things better.

Bacopa Monnieri - Bacopa monnieri exerts a strong protective effect on the brain because it inhibits the production of acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme that breaks down acetylcholine, and acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that you want a lot of in your brain.

Gotu Kola - Gotu kola may help to increase the growth of neurons, promoting brain function, reducing mental fatigue, and supporting memory.

Phosphatidylserine - Phosphatidylserine begin to decline with age. It helps “connect the wires” upstairs and improve nerve impulse firing.

Green Tea - It’s found in green tea, and EGCG can cross the blood-brain barrier. A 2012 study in mice found that supplemental EGCG promotes brain plasticity in the hippocampus area of the brain.

Today should be an important day for you, particularly if you’re now really thinking seriously about your memory for the first time. I’m not a fan of the “wait and see” approach when it comes to your brain. Our life experiences and family relationships as well as friendships are important memories.

Your job depends on your ability to remember the simplest tasks. If you’d like to read the longer version of this article, just sign up for my newsletter at suzycohen.com and I’ll email it to you.

Inside The Law Injured At Work?!

Know Your Rights To Critical Benefits!

Robert C. Shea Esq.

By Christopher R. Shea Esq., of R.C. Shea and Associates

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

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

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

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

Further, it is important to note another crit-

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

If you feel your legitimate benefits have been denied and you live in the New Jersey, our workers compensation lawyers would like to talk to you to see if we can assist you with your case. Please call for a free consultation. R.C. Shea & Associates, 244 Main Street, Toms River, N.J. (732) 505-1212.

Dear Joel

By Joel Markel

Umbrella Thief Dear Joel, They say ‘Save it for a rainy day’, and at least that’s what I thought I did. We have an umbrella thief at work. When I went to use my umbrella yesterday, the one I just brought to work that morning, it was gone.

This is not the first time this has happened.

Why do people think nothing of taking someone’s umbrella? Have you ever done this? Has it ever happened to you? Do I have to buy a safe for my umbrella?

Answer I think umbrellas fall into their own category of items like scissors, tape and pens, even jackets and sweaters which have all have been a ‘quick borrow’ by many. The problem is returning it, which is especially hard with an umbrella, because you need it when you arrive at your destina-

tion. Yes, I have ‘borrowed’ an umbrella, but guilt and responsibility made me return it the same day. We have a big group in my office, so we keep a little area stocked with often ‘borrowed’ items, some even donated by co-workers. We have umbrellas, cloth grocery bags, sweatshirts, jumper cables and many more things. The rule is you must return anything you use. It has saved us lots of grief. Maybe you could try it where you work.

Drug Addiction In Seniors And Schools

WHITING – On Friday August 24 at 7 pm, Whiting Assembly of God will host a forum on the epidemic opioid drug problem in our country, and specifically what’s happening in Manchester.

Come for education and for encouragement. Learn how to help, and where to get help. Nobody should have their life destroyed by addiction, controlled by drugs.

Opioid addiction is not limited to young people. Many seniors find themselves addicted to prescription medicine as well. Moreover, medicine cabinets are no longer the safest place to store potent prescriptions when tradesmen or visitors enter the home.

Sgt. Richard Mazza of the Manchester Police Narcotics Team will center his

presentation on their “Not Even Once” program given in township schools.

The presentation will cover not only the dimensions of the problem but will address what we can do as a community to help bring it under control.

Teen Challenge, a Christian addiction recovery organization, will be on hand to answer questions and offer a pathway to

freedom from addiction. Local business leaders are also offering their support, making this a community-wide effort.

The church is located at 83 Lacey Road (Rte. 539), across from the Whiting First Aid building. If you have any questions, please call Whiting Assembly of God at 732-350-4000.

Christ Lutheran Church Book Club

WHITING – The Christ Lutheran Church has a CLC Book Club. Everyone is welcome. For more information, call the church office at 732-350-0900.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of Aug 18 - Aug 24

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Place emphasis on taking good care of the things you already own. A quick fling might be fun in the week ahead but be advised that important relationships started now could possibly run into a heartbreaking situation.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Thumb your nose at interruptions. Concentrate on maintaining business as usual and avoid slacking off during the week ahead. Use a combination of ingenuity and people skills to achieve your most worthwhile ambitions.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Be relentless about continuing to pursue your goals yet remain flexible. You may need to take a few detours. Even if you can’t steamroll over obstacles you needn’t completely abandon pet projects, hopes, or dreams.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Just go with what you know. When you show someone how to do something your knowledge is out in plain view.

You may inadvertently invite criticism if you are too sure of your infallibility in the week ahead.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Tom Sawyer had a brilliant idea. If what you are doing looks like fun everyone else will want to be there by your side.

You could attract a bevy of devoted admirers that support your financial success in the week ahead.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You will have all your little duckies lined up in a row as you demonstrate a flare for organization. Don’t let long hours tire you too much this week and remember to schedule in time to relax and recuperate.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Defend important core beliefs and values. The law doesn’t honor exceptions to the rules, but you can make exceptions within your heart as the week unfolds. Demonstrate your appreciation for true blue partners.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Fall back on family values this week. Nurture important relationships and be especially kind and generous to family members. Listen to your intuition when dealing with matters that could impact hearth and home.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Impress others with non-judgmental friendliness and keep the social ball rolling this week. Someone who is the epitome of honesty may be at the other end of the table when you engage in financial maneuvering.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Watch for the light bulbs that go off in your head as this week unfolds. A magazine, trade journal or even a conversation can give you the necessary inspiration to set important matters rolling merrily along.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Focus on friendly competition. A partner may need some encouragement but will eventually be enthusiastic about stretching a few muscles or going along for exercise. Avoid confrontations in the week ahead.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In the upcoming week things may come to a head concerning a work-related issue. Take time to care for yourself by watching your diet, setting up routine dental visits, and getting exercise regimens in place.

GRILLED HAMACHI WITH GRILLED PAPAYA AND SOUTHEAST ASIAN VINAIGRETTE Serves 4 as a main dish, 8 as an appetizer For the grilled papaya: 1 large ripe but still slightly firm papaya 2 teaspoons Asian-style chile oil Kosher salt For the vinaigrette: 1/2 cup (125 mL) red wine vinegar 1/4 cup (60 mL) fresh lime juice 1/4 cup (60 mL) Asian fish sauce (nuoc mam) 2 tablespoons soy sauce 1/3 cup (85 mL) peanut oil 1/4 cup (60 mL) sesame oil 3/4 cup (185 mL) diced grilled papaya 1/4 to 1/2 cup (60 to 125 mL) diced sweet yellow onion or red onion 3/4 cup (185 mL) peeled, seeded, and diced cucumber 3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil 1 teaspoon sugar 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper For the grilled hamachi: 1 large piece hamachi (yellowtail) fillet, about 1 1/2 pounds (750 g) Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper

Preheat a charcoal or gas grill, or an indoor electric countertop grill or stovetop grill pan.

Meanwhile, start preparing the grilled papaya. Halve the papaya lengthwise, scoop out the seeds, and then peel each half with a swivel-bladed vegetable peeler or paring knife. When the grill is hot, brush each half all over with the chile oil and season lightly with salt. Grill both halves until brown grill marks appear and the fruit softens slightly, 1 to 2 minutes per side, turning with grill tongs. Remove from the grill, and set aside to cool.

For the Southeast Asian vinaigrette, cut off and dice enough of the cooled papaya to make 3/4 cup (185 mL); cut the remaining papaya lengthwise into slices 1/4 inch (6 mm) thick and set aside. In a large nonreactive mixing bowl, whisk together the vinegar, lime juice, fish sauce and soy sauce. Whisking continuously, drizzle in the peanut oil and sesame oil. Stir in the diced papaya and as much onion as you like until thoroughly combined. Stir in the cucumber, mint, basil, sugar and white pepper; cover and refrigerate until serving.

For the grilled hamachi, drizzle the fish all over with peanut oil and season to taste with salt and black pepper. Grill directly over high heat until well-seared but still very rare, 30 seconds to 1 minute per side.

Remove the fish from the grill, and cut crosswise into slices 1/4 inch (6 mm) thick.

Arrange the fish slices overlapping on serving plates, and arrange the papaya slices around them. Spoon some of the vinaigrette over each portion, passing the rest at the table. Serve immediately.
