No-Hitter Sends BlueClaws To Championships

Cops Work To Make Roads Safer For Pedestrians

By Judy Smestad-Nunn BRICK - The township police department is always working to improve pedestrian and traffic safety and prevent tragedies such as the two fatalities in 2007 on Chambers Bridge Road.

In January of that year, a pedestrian was struck and killed by a car in the area of the Brick Housing Authority and the ShopRite complex. In October 2007, another pedestrian was struck and killed by a police car in the same area. Neither of the victims was using the marked crosswalks there.

In 2009, a fence was constructed on Chambers Bridge Road which has helped to ensure that pedestrians crossing in the area of the Housing Authority use the crosswalks.

“I’m sure that this has helped prevent tragedies,” said Brick Police Chief James Riccio in a recent email.

“There are many roads in town where people cross and fail to use the crosswalks, which puts them in danger of being struck by vehicles, but we can’t put

By Chris Christopher LAKEWOOD - Spencer Howard pitched a no-hitter Friday night, leading the Lakewood BlueClaws past the Kannapolis Intimida-

tors 1-0 in the South Atlantic League playoffs.

“I don’t think it has sunk in yet,” he said while his teammates staged a celebration in the team’s clubhouse.

“It’s kind of surreal. It was a lot of fun. It went by quick. It’s incredible. I have no words for it.”

Quinn Replaces Bartlett On Ballot

By Jennifer Peacock TOMS RIVER – In a little more than two hours, Gary Quinn will accept the nomination and appointment to run alongside Freeholder Gerry P. Little on the Republican ticket in the November midterm elections.

Little is in his office at 101 Hooper Ave., having just presided over maybe the

shortest Freeholder meeting in Ocean County history.

(About six minutes, from start to finish.) He sat in on the interviews for candidates the evening before, though not as a voting committee member. He knows who, out of the 10 contenders, the committee is going to recommend at the Ocean (Ballot - See Page 4)

BlueClaws: Continued From Page 1 White Sox affiliate from North Carolina.

The BlueClaws advanced to the best of five SAL Championship Series in which they will meet the Lexington (Ky.) Legends, a Kansas City Royals farm club.

The first two games of the series will be played in Kentucky. The remaining games will take place at FirstEnergy Park beginning Thursday, Sept. 13. Howard, a righty, threw as hard as 100 mph at FirstEnergy Park in his Sept.

7 classic. He blazed a 100 mph high, inside fastball past an enemy hitter for one of his nine strikeouts. Howard walked one, hit one batter and unleashed one wild pitch.

He threw 103 pitches, including 73 for strikes.

He faced 30 batters - just three over the minimum in a nine-inning game. He threw the seventh gem in the history of the BlueClaws, who began play in 2001. It was the third nine-inning no-hitter by a single Lakewood pitcher (Gavin Floyd in 2002 and Nick Fanti last season).

And it was Lakewood’s first postseason no-hitter in franchise history.

“It’s the first night all season that I had my curve working,” Howard said. “It’s the first night all year that I had confidence in it. I have been working on it a lot and it finally came together. I used it more than I did my changeup.

I probably had the best command of my fastball that I had all season I worked on my curveball extensively for the entirety of the year. This was the first time in a game setting that it was this controlled.

“In college, I didn’t really have it and last

season I worked on a spike curve. The movement was there, but I really didn’t know how to throw it or compete with it. I played off the high fastball with it and I threw a couple in the dirt that were chase pitches.”

Howard said Lakewood catcher Rodolfo Duran played large roles throughout the game.

“I trusted him - the way he called the game,” Howard said after whiffing four of his first six hitters. “We were on the same page for the whole game.”

Howard needed a mere four pitches to work through the eighth inning.

“At the end, I threw my fastball where I was supposed to,” he said. “I let them (the Intimidators) put it in play.”

Howard said he began thinking a no-hitter was possible late in the game.

“Heading into the eighth, I noticed it,” he said.

“When I went to the mound in the ninth, I kind of noticed it. Our fans noticed it. I could tell that by the way they were cheering.”

The announced crowd of 3,592 roared its approval as Howard registered the game’s final out with a fly to left field off the bat of Steele Walker to Matt Vierling.

Howard worked on his fundamentals while warming up in the bullpen prior to the game.

“I went through my mechanics and got myself synced up,” he said. “I had a plan and it worked out. When I saw them go against us in the first game of the series, I saw they attacked the fastball.”

Kannapolis loaded the bases in the third, in which Lakewood first baseman Jake Scheiner and shortstop Nick Maton made both of their team’s two errors, but Howard wriggled out of

the jam, getting Walker to line to first base to end the inning.

A Kannapolis leadoff batter reached first base in the sixth when he was hit by a pitch.

However, Howard righted himself, retiring 18 of his final 19 hitters.

Howard, 22, was drafted by the Phillies in the second round in 2017 out of Cal-Poly San Luis Obispo where he was a walk-on. The Templeton. Calif., resident was 9-8 with a 3.78 earned run average during the regular season for the BlueClaws as they won the overall league title and the first and second-half Northern Division championships.

The 6-foot-3 Howard was second on the team in wins and paced the SAL in strikeouts with 147 in 112 innings. He was third on the club in innings pitched. He appeared in and started 23 games. He tossed one complete game. He allowed 101 hits, including six home runs, and 40 walks. He posted a 12.6 WHIP (walks and hits to innings pitched).

Howard, a 200-pounder, is ranked 18th in the Phillies’ minor league system by Baseball America. He began his professional career in 2017 with the Williamsport (Pa.) Crosscutters of the New York-Penn League, a short-season Class A circuit. He was 1-1 with a 4.45 earned run average in 28.1 innings in nine games.

He whiffed 27 batters in his final 17 innings of the year.

Howard received a $1.17 million signing bonus from the Phillies after being selected in the first-year player draft, according to mlb.com.

The bonus was $373,800 under slot.

Philadelphia’s amateur scouting department rated Howard as the draft’s top right handed

pitcher. Howard was 8-1 with a 1.95 earned run average in his final season at Cal-Poly where he struck out 97 and walked 23 in his final season.

Howard threw his other no-hitter as a seventh grader in California.

The BlueClaws scored the only run they needed in the bottom of the sixth in which Simon Muzziotti plated Jose Antequera with a two-out single to left-center field.

“Obviously, it’s exciting,” Howard said. “It gives us momentum going into the next series and hopefully it’ll help us come away with a ring.”

Blueclaws News Bites: Lakewood’s other no-hitters: Keith Bucktrot (seven innings, 2001), Floyd (nine innings, loss, 2002), Carlos Carrasco and Andy Barb (2006), Jeb Stefan, Ramon Ovideo and Chris Burgess (2013), Nick Fanti and Trevor Bettencourt (2017), Fanti (2017).

Lakewood has advanced to the SAL Championship Series all five times it has qualified for postseason play. Lakewood, which won the playoffs in 2006, 2009 and 2010, is 20-7 all-time in postseason play.

The BlueClaws threw a minor league baseball best 23 shutouts during the regular season in 2018 and the blanking of the Intimidators was their first shutout of the postseason.

Lakewood was 87-51 overall (.630). It was 46-23 (.667) during the second half and 41-28 (.594) in the first half of the season.

Lexington was 70-60 (.559) overall during the regular season. It won the second-half Southern Division title at 39-29 (.574) and was third in the division in the first half (37-31, .544).

Little’s son is a lieutenant is the U.S. Navy, stationed at Naval Air Station Whidbey Island in Washington State. It was during this cross-country journey, probably somewhere in Wyoming, where he got the call.

It was John Bartlett, his running mate.

He was dropping out. He had to.

“He explained that he needed this additional treatment, that he was feeling weak, and he just didn’t have the energy. He didn’t think it was fair to me. He didn’t think it was fair to the people of Ocean County. He felt it was his honorable responsibility to step aside,” Little said.

This was to be their sixth election together.

They knew each other for years, before Little became a Freeholder, with his work as chief of staff for the Ninth Legislative District.

But, they really got to know each other with Bartlett’s proposal for the natural lands trust fund. Little was a councilman in Surf City back in 1989 when Bartlett was pushing for this fund. At the time, Ocean County had three daily newspapers and numerous weekly newspapers. Little wrote to the papers a letter of support for Bartlett and his proposal. The idea became law, of course, with overwhelming support from all voting

districts in the county. Bartlett tapped Little in 1947, where he was elected to council in to serve on the Natural Lands Advisory 1974 and elected mayor four years later. He was elected Freeholder in 1979.

They have a son and daughter. He is currently the senior member of the Lacey Township Committee, and had previously been on the Lacey Township Board of Education. He had been appointed to the Pinelands Commission by Gov. Chris Christie.

“John has had an such an impact on anything and everything that has happened throughout this county in the last 30 years, and he have to truly remember to thank him for his service,” Quinn said during his acceptance speech. He had aspired for years to become a Freeholder, something Bartlett encouraged him in. “But I had always dreamed of working with John because of all the knowledge he has. …John is somebody that is going to be truly, truly missed.

NJ’s Move Over Law Should Be Strengthened

Capitol Comments Senator Jim Holzapfel 10th Legislative District, Serving Toms River

TRENTON - State Sen. Jim Holzapfel and Assemblymen Dave Wolfe and Greg McGuckin (all R-10th) are looking to strengthen the state’s move over law following a recent incident in which four Manchester Township police officers were injured when a driver failed to obey the law. A fifth officer narrowly escaped injury in a separate incident nine months ago.

The 10th legislative district

legislators are co-sponsoring a bill (S2501/A3890) increasing the penalty for violating the law which carries a $100 to $500 fine. Drivers violating the law will also be assessed two motor vehicle points under the proposed legislation. Repeat offenders face additional surcharges and could have their license suspended “I originally sponsored move over legislation in

From The Desk Of

Congressman Tom MacArthur TRENTON - Congressman Tom MacArthur announced two grants, totaling $250,000, for local organizations combating opioid abuse. The Riverfront Coalition in Burlington

County and the DART Coalition of Ocean County were each awarded $125,000 to assist them in their efforts to prevent drug abuse.

“As co-chair of the Bipartisan

New Jersey several years ago after visiting Florida which enacted its law in 2002,” said Holzapfel. “Emergency personnel need to focus on the task at hand which is helping motorists. They shouldn’t have to worry about being injured or killed by careless drivers. It’s our hope that this bill, along with enhanced enforcement, will save lives.”

Four Manchester Township officers pulled over a driver on Rt. 37 and were conducting an investigation when another motorist hit the stopped vehicle, injuring the officers earlier this

month. Another Manchester officer was sideswiped when he stopped on the shoulder to investigate a struck deer in November 2017. As he walked toward his vehicle, with its emergency lights on, a passing car swerved to avoid hitting the officer and kept going.

“The public needs to understand these are life and death situations,” said Wolfe.

“First responders are needlessly being killed and injured because drivers are disregarding the law. They don’t stand a chance against a car or truck that’s barreling

down a highway. They’re sitting ducks. We’re putting drivers on notice that they need to obey the law or face stiff consequences.”

“These recent incidents in Manchester are a wakeup call. Drivers need to pay better attention to their surroundings,” said McGuckin. “Cops and other first responders are in the business of saving lives. They shouldn’t lose theirs or risk injury because of careless drivers.

“This isn’t rocket science.

Move over or slow down,” continued McGuckin. “Use

some common sense and common courtesy. This bill puts drivers on notice that if they don’t, they will pay.”

The state’s move over law, enacted in January 2009, requires drivers to reduce their speed and change lanes when approaching vehicles displaying emergency lights, including police, fire, medical services vehicles and highway maintenance and tow trucks. When safely changing lanes isn’t possible, drivers must slow down below the posted speed limit.

New Jersey is the 44th state to pass such a law.

Grants Awarded To Combat Opioid Addiction Heroin Task Force in Congress, I am always looking for ways to bring more resources to our community to combat the opioid epidemic. I have been a staunch supporter of the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) and stood up to leaders in my own party who worked to cut its funding. These grants are going to help local organiza-

tions who are doing incredible work to save lives every day,” said Congressman Tom MacArthur. “These grants – awarded through the DrugFree Communities Support Program – will help towns invest in furthering youth education on the dangers of drug abuse, and introduce new programs to help those battling addiction. This issue

is bigger than one of us, but it’s not bigger than all of us working together.”

The DFC Support Program is designed with the belief that local problems need local solutions by leveraging local, community centered resources. Money allocated through this program will be dedicated to data-driven efforts to address this complex social issue.

The ONDCP, which oversees DFC Support Program, was slated to be defunded under the President’s budget. As cochair of the bipartisan Heroin Task Force in Congress, Congressman MacArthur led a bipartisan group of members who successfully fought the President to keep the ONDCP and its related programs funded.

“Aniridia,” a genetic disorder that affects one in 50,000-100,000 people in the United States, involves a partially or completely absent iris, the colored circle surrounding the pupil that changes to allow different amounts of light to enter the eye. To address this problem, as well as other traumatic conditions that result in damage to the iris, researchers have developed the first prosthetic iris. Individually sized and colored for each patient, this thin and foldable construction of medical-grade silicone is surgically implanted in the eye and held in place by sutures and anatomical structures of the eye. FDA-approved as the first stand-alone prosthetic iris, the device is sure to help those who suffer functional and aesthetic complications from a missing iris.

In clinical trials, 94 percent of patients reported satisfaction with the appearance of the artificial iris, and 70 percent of patients reported a significant decrease in light sensitivity and glare. At our office you will find a compassionate and experienced team who are dedicated to providing a full spectrum of high-quality personalized eye care for your whole family.

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY E DITORIAL A Letter To The Editor Is One Person’s Opinion For 23 years, Micromedia Publications has been a source for news in the community. Ever since the first edition of The Manchester Times, dated April 18, 1995, we’ve published letters to the editor on a variety of topics ranging from local issues to international affairs.

For clarification purposes, Wikipedia defines a letter to the editor as “a letter written to a newspaper, magazine or other periodical about issues of concern to readers, usually intended to be published in the paper/ periodical.”

Everything from nose hair to politics - no subject is off limits and we get a wide array of submissions. Sometimes we make the decision not to run a letter that may be riddled with hate speech, racist, homophobic or blasphemous ramblings. But the company has always run letters as a common practice. In fact, our whole mission statement is based on the importance of the community and serving as a voice to our readers. Part of that service is to allow for opinions to be expressed and then discussed either through additional letters or online social media posts.

You can imagine my surprise when I saw some of the colorful comments posted on our social media pages after we ran a letter in which the AUTHOR called for President Donald Trump’s impeachment. Did we agree with the letter? Maybe, maybe not. We are journalists first and don’t take sides (despite many major media outlets today doing so). Was the letter the opinion of the writer? Yes. Was there a disclaimer stating that the letter was the opinion of the writer? Absolutely. Did people read that disclaimer?

Obviously not.

Do we run positive letters regarding President Trump?

Yes, yes we do. Do we get a lot of submissions? Frankly, no, we don’t. That is certainly surprising to us in the newsroom as we do live in

a Republican county. If we received more, we would certainly run them.

A monk from England named John Lydgate is k nown for this famous phrase: “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time.”

I will say this once again - this time both in the printed papers and online: we welcome ALL letters from all sides of the political aisle. Our newspapers are fair and balanced. We don’t take sides. We don’t play favorites.

It seems that ever since the 2016 election, the amount of negativity from people is stronger than ever. Regardless of your political views and ideology and who you support to lead this great country, remember that we are all human beings with a right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

There’s certainly a way you can express yourself without name calling and being utterly hurtful. Someone’s political view doesn’t say everything about that person’s character. I’ve seen a lot of hate speech from all sides and it’s really a shame. We should all want our country to be great and for us to remember all of the liberties we have thanks to our founding fathers and the brave men and women who have served our nation.

We welcome a difference of opinion without fear of retribution or blowback - just try and be civil and know the letters to the editor will continue to be a permanent staple of the Micromedia newspapers and Jersey Shore Online.

So with that, if you would like to send a letter, email it to news@jerseyshoreonline.com Thank you as always, Jason Allentoff Vice President/COO Micromedia Publications, Inc.

Letters To The Editor MacArthur A Leader For NJ During the last midterm election, four years ago, the nation was experiencing a wave of voter discontent. It was at this time that Congressman MacArthur was elected to the New Jersey 3rd Congressional seat. It was also when Republicans expanded their majority in the House, gained control of the Senate for the first time in eight years, and total control of Congress.

With the 2016 election of President Donald Trump, Congressman MacArthur and the Republicans finally had the opportunity to make a real difference for our country.

During Congressman MacArthur’s time in office, his years of previous experience in the business world, his unquestioned support and dedication to the men and women in the military and our national defense and his commitment to tackling the Opioid epidemic, have made him a valued member in the House. One need only look at his record of reforming FEMA in wake of Superstorm Sandy and his efforts to save Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, to see how valuable his leadership has been. This is what I like most about Congressman MacArthur. He is a trailblazer and a leader, not a follower.

Under the leadership of Congressman MacArthur and the Republican-led Government, you can see for yourself that

Letters To The Editor the economic engine of the United States is booming, and the unemployment rate among all Americans stands at record lows. Companies and jobs are coming back to America, like never before.

Thank you Tom MacArthur, for your important contributions to the improving of conditions in our country.

After years of defeatist Democratic policies, in which we were told that America’s best days are behind us, it is refreshing to see people being positive and optimistic about the future.

When A Politician Lies When considering candidates this November, it’s important to look past disinformation and fear mongering pushed forth by some candidates and their surrogates. When a candidate uses lies to stoke the fears of voters, it should make one question why that candidate resorts to disinformation instead of outlining their ideas for the community they will represent. The tired, old tactic of lying about your opponent does not speak to today’s voters because today’s voters are very savvy.

Many of my friends and I prefer candidates like Andy Kim, candidate for Representative of NJ-03, who have a positive message, who look to the future with a well-

Free Will, And Government Oppression What is the meaning of life?

Like our DNA, it is different for each of us as we utilize our talents, we leave our fingerprints on the future. God bestowed us with the gift of free will and the dominion over all other living things.

This free will is unconditional, including whether to believe or not. Many believe man has evolved beyond the belief in God. The truth is, in all of recorded history we have not evolved at all, being of the same flesh easily swayed by evil. Men have chosen to have dominion over other men, denying them their right to free will and choice. This is the greatest evil of all. In the 20th century alone at least 160 million people were murdered by their own governments ruled by evil men.

Free will is meant to be used within the realm of the Ten Commandments or the Golden Rule. Believers living by the Golden Rule know their first obligation is to sustain oneself. Once accomplished, you should be fruitful and multiply within your ability to support a family and participate in a community. Your final obligation is charity for those unable to support themselves. Forced charity through government taxation is not charity at all. It is the usurpation of free will.

We’ve a long way to go.

Welle Insulted Local Residents

Democrat Josh Welle is running for a seat in the House of Representatives against Republican Cong re ssm a n C h r is Sm it h in New Jersey’s Four th Congressional Dist rict.

The election is on Nov. 6.

Mr. Welle is a veteran and I thank him for his militar y ser vice. Can’t thank him enough. Now his comments mentioned online on Aug. 2 regarding residents of the 4th Dist r ict are insulting and misleading. He says he wants to end racism and discrimination in the district.

“But as you go to Howell and Jackson and Allentown and Millstone, a nd p e ople who vot e d for Ch r is Smith for 37 years,” he said. “They’re n o t t h e r e.” M r. Wel le sure has a funny way of trying to get votes.

I lived and ser ved in Howell and now live in Ja ck son . A nd ju st b e cau se a good m a ny of us in the 4th District are conservatives or lean Republican does not make u s r a c i s t . M r. Wel le’s “progressive” ways have failed ever ywhere they’ve been applied and will only place more of a burden on people and businesses already f leeing our state in droves.

Nino Borrelli Jackson Ed note: the full quote was: “I want to move this district forward. I want to fight against discrimination in this district.

I want to f ight against racism in this district. I want to bring new jobs to this district in the green economy. But as you go to Howell and Jack son and Allentown and Millstone, and people who v ote d fo r Ch r i s S mith for 37 years. They’re not there yet.”

Beach: Continued From Page 1 year’s total income of $419,082. These amounts include revenue from season badges, season parking, daily badges, daily parking and senior parking.

“I’m very happy with the sales, considering the days we had to close, and there was not one nice weekend in June,” he said from his office at the Civic Plaza. “I thought it would be lower.”

Brick beaches were open for the three weekends before opening seven days a week on June 15. The replenishment project at Brick Beach 3 was completed on those weekdays, so it was never closed to the public when lifeguards were on duty, he said.

“The beaches look beautiful. When Island Beach State Park is full to capacity - and last year when the state closed it - a lot of residents come to Brick beach, and it became their new beach,” Santaniello said.

Brick has a reputation for having “fantastic and alert” lifeguards and top-notch facilities, including bathrooms and concession stands, he said.

The beach replenishment project changed the previously predictable areas of rip currents, moving some of them as much as 100 yards south from where they had always formed.

“Spots became bad that had never been bad before, but our lifeguards go into the water every morning to check the currents and to check bad areas,” he said.

The lifeguards were busy this summer, racking up 22 rescues and responding to 58 calls for medical aid. They also administered oxygen four times and found two lost persons.

Township EMTs were called eight times for the more serious medical emergencies, and Brick Police were called to the beaches 16 times. There was one arrest for disorderly conduct, Santaniello said.

This was the last season for assistant Beach

Captain Meredith Hudson, who after more than 20 years is leaving to become the assistant principal at Brick Memorial High School.

She will be replaced next season by Tim Brennan, who is a teacher at Brick Memorial.

Preparation for the 2019 beach season begins in January, when Santaniello will meet with long-time Beach Captain Donovan Brown to plan out lifeguard staffing and more.

“It’s not like it used to be, where 40 people would apply for four lifeguard positions,” Santaniello said. “It’s more like 20 will apply for 15 positions. I don’t know why, maybe it’s too tough and kids want the summer off.”

Brick beaches closed after Labor Day weekend. They have been winterized with all the water lines put away, the lifeguard stands stored and bathrooms closed.

“We don’t want the bathrooms open because we don’t want to invite people to the beach when there are no lifeguards,” Santaniello said.

On the Friday of Labor Day weekend, a family went into the water in a nearby unguarded private beach, he recalled. A child got into trouble, then the mother went in after him and she got into trouble, and when the Brick lifeguards responded, four family members were struggling in the water.

“We just don’t have lifeguards available after Labor Day. We lost over 20 of our 70 guards before Labor Day because they went back to college, so to keep the beach properly staffed we have to pay overtime.

Instead of lifeguards working 40 hours they’re working 48 or 56 hours,” he said.

Add to that, high school lifeguards are not allowed to work overtime if they’re younger than 18, so there are even fewer available to work, he said.

Santaniello said he is worried about the upcoming hurricane season since the beaches have been replenished.

“We’re getting pummeled right now,” he said as Hurricane Florence approached earlier in the week, with Isaac and Helene not far behind.

Brick Police Implements We Tip Notification System

By Kimberly Bosco BRICK – The Brick Township Police Department is now offering a new tip reporting system for residents to anonymously report suspicious activity. This system, called “We Tip”, is funded by the New Jersey School Insurance Group through the Brick Township Board Township Board of Education.

WeTip provides residents with a program that “mitigates, deters and controls inappropriate and dangerous conduct and provides organizational transparency,” according to police. It helps police respond to tragedies before they occur.

Police report that students often know about tragedies before they occur.

“We know that targeted school shootings rarely happen without some sort of warning sign. The U.S. Secret Service conducted the Safe School Initiative, a study of school shootings and other school-based attacks and found that usually “at least one other person had some type of knowledge of the attacker’s plan,” stated police. “Often it is this failure to alert authorities on their suspicions which affects our ability to prevent the violent act before it occurs.”

WeTip can help mitigate this problem by alerting authorities in a timely fashion.

WeTip is a toll-free crime hotline open 24/7.

Operators will receive calls and then relay that information to the proper law enforcement channels. WeTip is not just for schools,

but also responds to municipalities, school districts, corporations, small businesses, housing authorities and public and private agencies.

“When WeTip is implemented, it causes individuals to think twice before engaging in unacceptable conduct; discouraging harmful or inappropriate behavior from happening in the first place and fostering a positive organizational culture,” police stated.

WeTip has already demonstrated a 90 percent decrease in crime in participating school districts.

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.

Older adults need 400 micrograms of

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.

Dr. Izzy and his staff are always available to answer most of your questions regarding your hearing health.

His offices are in Toms River, Whiting, and Manahawkin. He can be reached at 732-818-3610 or via Web site at gardenstatehearing.com. Expanded Whiting Hours!

Bugs are not my favorite thing. Even after living in Florida for 35 years, I never grew accustomed to them. If you’re like me and would rather not admit defeat in the summer by staying indoors, then go ahead and enjoy the outdoors. You can always soothe your bug bites with my tips below.

Just FYI, the B vitamin trick doesn’t really work. Some people assume that taking B vitamins repels mosquitos and prevents bug bites, but that’s simply not true. You’re still going to get attacked because mosquitoes are more attracted by carbon dioxide and heat, which all of us put off. So forget the B vitamin trick. Here are 6 soothing ways to deal with bug bites: 1. Ice Cubes - Ice is a foolproof method for relieving irritation from insect bites on contact. Not only does ice temporarily numb the pain, it also reduces swelling and inf lammation so that your injury heals faster.

2. Tea Bags - While you might typically turn to tea to soothe your emotional state, this potent brew can aid sensitive skin as well. The tannins in green and black tea are natural astringents, working quickly to ease discomfort.

3. Garl ic - Eating garlic the day before you go for a hike is a good idea. As you sweat, you waft a sulfur compound, and bugs hate it. Alternatively, cut a clove in half and apply it to your skin.

Be careful though, it occasionally

exacerbates your irritation, especially if it’s not diluted with coconut or olive oil.

4. Essential Oils - Tea tree oil and lavender are stellar options for bug bites.

Put a wad of lotion in your palm and then 1 drop of Tea Tree, and 5 drops of Lavender essential oil. Dab this onto your wound and it’s instantly soothing.

5. Aloe Vera - Just slice open a fresh aloe leaf and apply the succulent’s gooey gel to the sting. Allow it to dry in place on your skin. The aloe plant’s anti-inf lammatory properties make it valuable for healing minor wounds and reducing risk of infection.

6. Basil - Basil isn’t just for pesto! for basil. This fragrant herb contains a chemical compound called eugenol, which relieves itchy, irritated skin. You can steep a tablespoon of dried herb (or 6 fresh leaves) in about 2 cups of water.

Let it cool, then apply the basil-infused water to your skin with a compress.

7. Meat Tenderizer - Mix it with water to make a paste, then apply to the sting.

It works on contact.

Now you know the best ways to take care of yourself if you happen to get bit. Of course, it’s ideal to stay out of bug infested areas. Antihistamines and analgesics can be used for relief if necessary too. It’s smart to avoid wearing yellow in bee territory. Also, lighting a citronella candle (or using citronella bug spray) will keep insects away from your patio space.

My Husband Is Addicted To Football!

Dear Joel, My husband and I had a really great summer. We took a nice vacation at the beach and made the most out of every weekend but now that the summer sun is fading away, I have to face a lonely life.

See my wonderful husband is an extreme football fan. Once September arrives it’s nothing but JETS, JETS, JETS. I don’t like football, what can I do?

Answer: I know you don’t like football, but you do like your husband so why not let him have his time in front of the TV. I know it cuts into your weekend time, but that can be a plus. Football season is a great time

to try out new recipes, catch up some of your favorite shows, slip out for some holiday shopping, clean out the garage, and lots more activities, like crafts.

Why not make a scrap book of your wonderful summer together? He gave you lots of his time and focus in the summer. Let him take some time for himself and you may just find a great gift in your stocking.

Write to joel@preferredcares.com.

Inside The Law Congratulations!

You Have Just Won The Lottery...Or Have You?

Robert C. Shea Esq.

By Michael J. Deem, Esq., of R.C. Shea and Associates Today’s world is filled with scams. It’s becoming harder and harder to trust anyone.

A new assault on victims is in the form of Lottery and Sweepstake scams. These scams are becoming more and more common. They may come to you from social media, phone calls, mailings, e-mail and text messages-all saying that you have won money or prizes. The scammers may even try to impersonate public figures, police, FBI, Lottery and Officials. To make matters worse, they have also mastered the art of cloning otherwise legitimate web sites and social media profiles. So how do you know if your winnings are legitimate?

Scammers like to ask for up-front payment, such as taxes, processing fees, delivery fees, legal fees or customer fees to collect your “winnings.” Any payment requested in advance should be a red flag!

The most common up-front payment request is a monetary transfer, because these are like cash. Other up-front payment schemes that are becoming popular include prepaid cards and iTunes gift cards because the scammers can access your balance if you give them the number from the back of the card or a PIN over the phone. Scammers may also ask that you send cash in the mail. Once you give them cash they are likely to ask for more and more. One trick the scammers use to

entice victims to send Michael J. Deem more money is to claim that there is a larger jackpot at stake or that there was some error or problem that can only be solved with more money. The scammers may even threaten violence.

Never give these strangers your personal information. Don’t give them your banking information or credit card information.

The scammers will use this information to make unauthorized charges to your credit card or access your bank account.

The scammers can also sell your private information to other scammers. Some victims are asked to deposit fake checks and if that check bounces the victim will be responsible for the bounced check fee.

If you have fallen victim to a scam you may be able to stop the damage. Report the matter to your financial institution, the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center, Local Police, the State Attorney General, The Federal Trade Commission and the US Postal Inspection Service.

The litigation attorneys at the Law Offices of R.C. Shea & Associates handle most consumer fraud claims on a contingency basis. A contingency means if there is no recovery, there is no fee. Call us for a free consultation: 732-505-1212.

Alcoeur Gardens Celebrates 100th Birthday

By Kimberly Bosco TOMS RIVER – Mae Trustman, resident at Alcoeur Gardens Residential Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care Community, celebrated a remarkable milestone recently. She celebrated her 100th birthday, surrounded by friends and family on September 7 at Alcoeur Gardens.

Mae Trustman, born on September 9, 1918, grew up in Brooklyn, NY. It was there that she later met the love of her life, William Trustman, a machinist by trade. Mae and William married and moved to the countryside in High Falls, NY. As a waitress in a tea room, Mae worked often and took

care of her husband. The pair never had children, but they did travel the US and visit wonderful places.

Later on in life, the pair settled down in Toms River. Mae then moved into Alcoeur Gardens, her most recent home. The staff at Alcoeur Gardens describes Mae as a “social butterfly” and a happy, loving trivia buff with a penchant for shows like Animal Planet and Jeopardy. Mae showed her love for fashion by wearing skirts, high heels, lipstick and red nail polish. While she may not dress in these anymore, she continues to follow the same philosophy: “cleanliness is next to godliness.”

Pedestrians: Continued From Page 1 up fences all over town,” he said. “People need to obey the law and use common sense.”

So far, in 2018, there have been 18 pedestrian accidents and seven bicycle accidents, said Brick Police Sergeant Neal Pedersen, who is the Traffic Safety Unit Supervisor of Crash Investigation and Reconstruction.

Two of the accidents were serious enough for the Traffic Unit to be called out for an extensive investigation, he said.

“The Traffic Unit is called out when additional expertise is needed for serious crashes,” Pedersen explained. “They make detailed diagrams to determine speed, fault - and sometimes it’s criminal.”

On March 14, a hit-and-run on Herbertsville Road near Maple Avenue resulted in serious injuries to Tyrone Stafford, 39.

Brick police tracked down and arrested Michael Beilis, 75, of Brick, who was charged with leaving the scene of an accident causing serious injury, and failure to report an accident, Pedersen said.

The second serious pedestrian accident this year occurred on April 16, when William P. Johnson, 52, was hit on Lanes Mill Road and killed by a car being driven by Moshe Wachsman, 35, of Lakewood.

Brick assigns regular police officers to specialty details to combat aggressive driving, intoxicated driving and pedestrian safety, Pedersen said.

Some of the areas of concern for pedestrian safety here include crosswalks and big shopping centers, like Costco, Walmart and Target.

“Brick Plaza is an area of concern because of the amount of people, bus stops, and there are

so many main roads that come together there Chambers Bridge, Route 70, Brick Boulevard, Cedar Bridge and Hooper Avenue,” he said.

The Kohl’s/ShopRite Plaza is another area of concern since the aisles are tight and there is ongoing construction, he said.

“It hasn’t been easy to navigate that parking lot this year,” Pedersen said.

The police department has used some $30,000 in NHTHA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) public safety grants for selective enforcement, including Click It or Ticket, Aggressive Driver, Over the Limit/Under Arrest and cell phone usage while driving, he said.

Some of the grant money can be used for educational purposes or to buy equipment, such as the purchase of a traffic speed sign that tells a driver their speed in a digital display. In 2017 the police department purchased a drone that is being used in serious and fatal crashes.

Those specialty police details are being utilized for pedestrian safety in the shopping center parking lots, where drivers are being ticketed for careless driving and reckless driving, Pedersen said.

Pedestrian safety during Halloween is always a concern for the police department, he said, and there are extra police officers on duty all night to specifically target neighborhoods favored by children trick-or-treating, such as in Lake Riviera, where much of the southern end has no sidewalks.

“Another option for the kids are events like Trunk-or-Treat where they walk from car to car, which has cut down on the trick-or-treaters in the neighborhoods,” Pedersen said.

Thousands attend the annual Trunk-or-Treat which will be held on Friday Oct. 19 from 6:308:30 p.m. at the Drum Point Sports Complex.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of sept 15 - sept 21

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): To prove you can stand on your own two feet you might step on someone else’s. In the week ahead, you may be bored by the mundane. You could be too eager to take risks or to demonstrate your independence.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): While other people are hard at work you may be preoccupied by disruptive influences in your social life. You might let flattery go to your head as the week rolls by and tempted to break off a relationship.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You like to be in the know so you are likely to investigate details that are sealed with a stamp of confidentiality.

Concentrate on being a busy bee as this week unfolds and your efforts will lead you to the honeycomb.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Be prepared for anything in the week to come. If you leave home without an umbrella you can’t blame the sky for raining. Today’s New Moon may spur new ideas and a more ambitious attitude towards a partner.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Parlay your passions into improving your pay check. You might be entirely focused on a business project or powerful workplace startup in the week ahead. A chance conversation can light a fire under your money-making abilities.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Power up your personality. In the week ahead, you might be more ambitious and more able to wield influence among the movers and shakers. The New Moon in your sign presages a refreshing new viewpoint and attitude.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The more you see the more you want. Don’t spend money on things that won’t stand up to scrutiny once your feeding frenzy passes. Loved ones may be unpredictable or try your patience as this week unfolds.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In the week ahead, you may need to offer encouragement and advice to a companion who is penny wise and pound foolish. You know that those who make decisions based on fear are sure to fail.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): When it rains it pours. To enjoy financial security, it might be necessary to find temporary shelter when the winds blow against you. Remain steady in the week ahead when tempted to try a different direction.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Persevere despite obstacles. You might enjoy taking a walk on the wild side in the week ahead. Something daring might break up the monotony, but don’t take risks with your money or your business relationships.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Dig deep.

Investigating the secrets of life may rivet your attention this week. Experimenting with something new is good for the soul. But you may unleash complications by following through on an impulsive desire.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Spend your pennies wisely. You may be up-to-date with the latest gadgets and trends but your desire to be in the swim can sink your bank account. Use your pleasant personality to win people over to your side..

wolfgang puck’s kitchen Chicken Dinner Winner: Try A Time-Honored Method For Cooking Juicy Roast Chicken

By Wolfgang Puck

ROAST TARRAGON-SCENTED CHICKEN IN A SALT CRUST WITH MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE Serves 6 to 8 2 whole chickens, each about 3 pounds (1.5 kg) 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 4 sprigs fresh tarragon 3 pounds (1.5 kg) coarse sea salt or kosher salt 3 pounds (1.5 kg) all-purpose flour About 3 cups (750 mL) water 2 large eggs, lightly beaten, for egg wash Mustard vinaigrette (recipe follows) Season the insides of the chickens with pepper. Gently inserting your clean fingers through the neck opening of each bird, gently loosen the skin covering the breast meat, taking care not to tear the skin. Carefully insert a fresh tarragon sprig between the skin and meat of each breast half.

Preheat the oven to 350 F (175 C).

In a large mixing bowl, stir together the salt and flour.

Stir in enough of the water to form a stiff dough. Divide the dough into two equal pieces.

For each chicken, divide the dough half into two pieces, one slightly larger than the other. With a rolling pin, roll out the smaller piece of dough to form a circle slightly larger than the chicken and about 1/2 inch (12 mm) thick.

Place the dough on one half of a large roasting pan and set a chicken on top.

Roll out the larger piece of dough to a circle large enough to generously cover the chicken and about 1/2 inch (12 mm) thick, and drape it over the chicken. Brush the edges of the dough with some water and pinch the edges together

to seal them well so no air can escape. Repeat with the other chicken and remaining dough.

With the egg wash, evenly brush the tops of the dough-covered chickens. Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and roast until the crust is deep golden brown, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Remove the chickens from the oven and, with large, sturdy spatulas, carefully transfer them to a large serving platter or two smaller platters. At the table, use a meat mallet and tongs to break and remove the crusts, taking care to avoid the hot steam. Transfer the chickens to a cutting board, and cut into quarters.

Spoon some of the vinaigrette onto serving plates and place the chicken on top. Serve immediately, passing the remaining vinaigrette for guests to help themselves.
