Change and Growth, Theme of Jackson In 2018

By Bob Vosseller JACKSON – Change and growth could be the buzz words to describe Jackson Township in 2018.

It was a year where the township made progress with its goal to make it a weekend trip destination with the approval of a sports complex and hotel.

Beyond that, the township’s school district, alarmed by stories nation-wide of school shootings, sought to increase security at its 10 schools with a special ballot question that was approved at the polls in November and added six additional security officers.

The township’s bond rating improved late in the year, proving its financial stability. The township’s

credit rating was raised to the second-highest possible. Moody’s Investors Services upgraded Jackson from Aa2 to Aal, which notes the agency’s view that Jackson is fiscally responsible. This helps when borrowing money for bonds.

One of the last acts of the governing body was to approve a $6.5 million bond ordinance for a police radio system that will replace the current one. Officials and police department representatives have described the current system as having outlived its usefulness.

Early in the year, an agreement was reached between the NJ Sierra Club and Six Flags Great Adventure over a proposed project that (Jackson - See Page 8)

Virginia Haines: The New Freeholder Director

By Jennifer Peacock L A K E WO O D – T h a t Tu e s d a y a ft e r no on ( D e c. 11) was sunny, and not Vermont cold.

so, this was my playground,” Haines said.

Outside, she pointed to the second-story at the back of the academy: a living room, bed room, the home she, her siblings and parents had occupied when it was a family home.

Haines: Continued From Page 1 to recruit some park employees to retrieve her. “But then you have the ocean.

You have ever ything here in Ocean County. To me, it was the perfect place to grow up.”

Ocean County Park was part of the vacation estate of John D. Rockefeller.

In the early 1940s, the family gifted the estate to the county, which the Ocean County Freeholders then used to establish the county’s first park. The police academy was established in 1960.

Haines’ father came back from the war and started working for the county park in 1945. The house had three apartments, one downstairs and two upstairs. The family settled there in 1948, before building a home next to Haines’ grandparents on the western side of Lakewood, on a plot owned by her great-grandfather, in 1957, four miles outside town.

Inside the park though, it was a mile from her front door to the gate at Ocean Avenue, a familiar path she walked to catch the bus. Haines went to Ella G. Clark School, Lakewood Junior High a nd La kewood H ig h School, whe n Jackson, Manchester and Lakehurst students were still bussed in. Her parents wanted her to focus on her studies; she was a cheerleader and babysat for some spending money. Her f irst job after graduating was working for the Ocean County Health Department.

Haines settled in Toms River, where she’s lived for nearly 40 years.

“There are so many people who have been mentors in my life,” she said, but named her mother as her strongest inf luence. “She, and my father, the things they instilled in us…They were very active in the community. They really cared, and my mother, she was a nurse, but at one point she was also welfare director in Lakewood. She would not just only go to the office, and did what she had to do for them, she would drive, she would find a job for someone. She would drive them to that job. If they called her out at 2 o’clock in the morning, she was there. She always gave 110 percent. And that’s where I think I learned a lot from.”

And it was her mother and father that got her started in politics. Active in the local Republican party, they would stump for candidates during election seasons. Haines’ first campaign was for Joseph Buckelew, who would later be so instrumental in her own political career, and George Buckwald, running for township committee. She was a young teen then and worked on different campaigns in her teens and 20s, stuffing and labeling envelopes, running phone banks, and polling voters.

“It was not a hard decision at all,” Buckelew said in a phone interview Dec. 14.

He was the Ocean County Republican Chairman when Haines approached him about running for a seat in the 10th Legislative District. He immediately supported her bid. “I was county chairman

at that time, and had been encouraging women to be more involved in the Republican organization. Hazel Gluck was a protégé of mine as well… [Gluck was the first female freeholder director, who served in 1978.] The first ingredient to having a good politician is intelligence.

Ginny is intelligent. The second is common sense, and she had common sense.

The third, and probably most important, is honesty, and she is honest as the day is long. She filled all those criteria.”

But before she embarked on her own career in politics, she worked for newly elected Freeholder John C. Bartlett Jr. for six years, starting in 1980, and then worked in then-Assemblyman Robert Singer’s legislative office for one year.

She was then selected to serve as Clerk of the Assembly.

“I learned so much listening to both sides of the aisle, the Republicans and the Democrats going back and forth on so much legislation,” Haines said. “I might have gone in that day with an opinion on a particular bill - I didn’t vote, I was Clerk of the Assembly - and then I would realize, and then you would hear another viewpoint and say, ‘They are really making sense.’”

Republican control of the Assembly was short lived, and she was no longer clerk. About a year later, the legislative districts had changed, and it was then Haines approached Buckelew about running.

“I realized, it’s not so much that you needed to have a degree when being a legislator, it’s just that as long as you showed you were honest with the people when you spoke with them, you showed an interest and that you cared, and that you really listen to what they said and you wanted to do what was going to be best for your legislative district and, of course, ultimately, always the State of New Jersey, I felt I could do the job,” Haines said.

Buckelew supported her nod. Virginia Haines’ career in politics began in August 1990.

She teamed with David Wolfe and Andrew Ciesla, and was only the fifth woman from Ocean County at that time to be elected to the Assembly.

“And I’m very proud to say, for that first time running, I was top vote-getter,” Haines said. “It was Ciesla, Wolfe & Haines, and I was top vote-getter.”

The self-described “moderate Republican’s” list of personal and political accomplishments is long. She served as Executive Director of the New Jersey Lottery for eight years. On the Toms River committee to fill a vacancy. As the National Republican Committeewoman – New Jersey. As co-chair of the Republican National Committee Northeast Region. As delegate for the Republican National Convention. As chair of the Ocean County College Foundation Board. With the Jersey Shore Council of Boy Scouts, the Monmouth/Ocean Foodbank, the Ocean County Heart Association, the United Way, the Local Advisory Council (Haines - See Page 6)

Haines:

Continued From Page 2 on Alcohol and Drug Abuse of Ocean County. As a member of the Rotary Club of Toms River, the Toms River Student Loan Fund Board and the Advisory Council for Big Brothers/Big Sisters.

Ocean County Freeholder since Jan. 27, 2016, filling the vacancy left by James F. Lacey.

And now she can add Freeholder Director, the fi rst woman in 40 years to hold that position.

It’s been the tradition of Ocean County’s freeholders to rotate the directorship annually, outgoing Freeholder Director Gerry P. Little said in a phone call Dec. 14.

“I’ve chatted with everyone [on the Freeholder Board] individually, and it’s a consensus that we think Freeholder Haines is very enthusiastic and she’s talented and she has certainly earned the gavel and so we’re going to be thrilled to ask her take that responsibility next year,” Little said. “We’re delighted, and we know she’ll do a good job.”

Little will hand off that gavel to Haines at the Board’s reorganization meeting Jan. 2.

“I know one of the things, and I’m sure there will be others, but one of the things is the opioid epidemic,” Haines responded when asked what her priorities were for 2019. She praised both former prosecutor Joseph Coronato for his programs and new prosecutor Bradley Billhimer’s commitment to not only continue that work, but expand on it. For instance, the county’s Blue HART program allows addicts to reach out to local police departments to get into participating treatment facilities.

“I know, to me, the one thing we do need are more treatment centers,” Haines said.

“There’s a lot of support out there, there are many agencies that we have that people can go to for counseling. But I feel we need to do what we can for the treatment because it used to be 28 days. I understand that in

some areas, you’re only going to get 14 days.

If someone has an addiction, I don’t know how 14 days is going to do anything to help that individual. I’m hoping to work with my fellow freeholders on solutions to whatever we can possibly do to work with other agencies to find out what is needed, what is the best solution.”

Gluck winters in Florida but maintains a home in Ocean County. Haines hasn’t had a chance to speak with her yet.

“She was a trailblazer in a lot of ways, besides being the first female Freeholder Director,” Haines said about Gluck. In total, there have been only six women from Ocean County who have gone to the state legislature. And while Haines said it should be about the character, and not sex, of a person that matters, women do have so much to offer in politics. “Woman have just as much ability to be an elected official. They have just as much to give in that position as anybody, as any man can. Unfortunately, the way society has been through the years, it’s still in a sense a man’s world.

It is changing, I think, with the younger generation.”

Haines never thought she’d run for office. She loved working on campaigns.

But working as Clerk of the Assembly changed her mind, and her trajectory.

“I realized I can do this job just as much as [men] can,” she said.

Although she has no aspirations for higher office at this point; she loves being a Freeholder.

“She brings a great effort to Board of Chosen Freeholders. Ocean County is lucky to have a person like that to serve in office. It is a great honor to be director,” Buckelew said. There have maybe been 50 persons total who have served as county freeholder since the county was founded in 1850, and out of those, only a couple woman. “Having women in politics is essential today. It was essential always, but more essential today.”

Continued From Page 1 will lead to the creation of the world’s first solar-powered theme park.

Six Flags Great Adventure and its partner KDC Solar announced on Jan. 24 that construction would soon start on the project which the New Jersey Sierra Club had originally opposed. The club challenged the park’s initial plans which would have destroyed close to 100 acres of forest including high-quality streams for 22 megawatts of solar power.

A high point for the year for Mayor Michael Reina was the day he spent in Washington DC as part of the president’s meeting of the mayors. President Donald J. Trump’s meeting of mayors was held at the White House and the Eisenhower Executive Building. Reina was one of only 50 mayors from throughout the country who attended the Jan. 24 session. He was the only one from Ocean County. He said the event allowed for community leaders to meet with many representatives of key intergovernmental agencies for the theme of municipal infrastructure.

“It was an honor to be invited to meet the President of the United States in the White House as the mayor of Jackson Township.

Just to be one of the mayors selected for consideration in the beginning was a great feeling but actually being there with the president and 50 other mayors was an experience that I will remember for the rest of my life,” Reina said.

For many in the Orthodox Jewish com-

munity of the township, the approval of a building plan for the township’s first synagogue represented the growth of those of that faith in the community.

Members of the township planning board unanimously approved the plans for the synagogue during a Feb. 5 meeting. The plan includes the construction of a two-story house of worship with a finished basement, totaling 21,165 square feet. It consists of 3.75 acres located on the westerly side of East Veterans Highway south of Grand Boulevard. The Shul, the word used for an Orthodox Jewish synagogue, will be built on 518 East Veterans Highway and will be known as the Royal Grove Shul. An estimated 500 Orthodox Jewish families currently reside in Jackson.

Some news proved shocking to the community. While the boys of the Holbrook Little League were everybody’s hometown heroes, police said the men managing the team’s finances were villains.

League President Anthony M. Del Vecchio, 63, and league treasurer John M. Lehmann, 55, both residents of Jackson, were charged with second degree Theft and Conspiracy to Commit Theft for the misappropriation of league finances, according to the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office.

The county’s Economic Crimes Unit began investigating them after receiving an anonymous tip about theft of funds, according to police. What followed was an extensive review of Holbrook’s fi nances from 2014 until now. It was determined that Del Vecchio and Lehmann, who were (Jackson - See Page 14)

The dinner was delicious, the dishes are done, and you’re settling in for a double feature on Netflix only to hear the “beep, beep” of your nonrechargeable hearing aid batteries going dead. Argh!

How can you make the next set of nonrechargeables last longer? Take control with these seven tips: Find the Right Match: Batteries are available in various sizes, types, and performance levels, so it’s important to find the right fit for your hearing aids.

Count on your hearing-care specialist, who can help ensure your hearing devices are matched up with the appropriate battery products.

Prepare Before You Pull: Hearing aid batteries come with a stay-fresh colored tab that helps keep them from discharging prematurely. Once the tab’s pulled and the batteries activate, however, they can’t be deactivated, so first be sure you’re ready to use ’em. Wait 3-5 minutes before closing the battery door or the voltage of the battery would get to 1.45 volts.

Acquire Only What You Need: It might seem like a good idea to stockpile lots of batteries, but even those that remain unopened in their packaging can lose power over time. Limit your supply to what you’ll reasonably put into service in a year, and use those with the earliest sell-by dates first.

Power Down: Just as turning off lights conserves energy and saves bulb life, powering down your devices when not using them helps batteries last. Turn off your hearing aids — including completely opening the battery door — when

they’re not in use.

Keep Water Out: Moisture — practically kryptonite to hearing aids — can damage batteries, too. Protect your devices from water sources including sweat, and help further reduce moisture by leaving the battery door open to dry out after removing the batteries at night.

Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Hot cars and super-cold spaces aren’t great places for your hearing aid batteries. Extreme temperatures can do a number on battery life, so store them at room temperature whenever possible and not in the refrigerator.

Rein Them In: Loose change in your pockets or purse always comes in handy, but loose batteries are a no-no. Batteries can react negatively with metals such as keys and coins, so consider storing them separately in their own packaging or another container.

Getting the most out of your batteries helps you get the most from your hearing technology — and save money, too! For more tips and tricks on making your batteries last longer, call us today at 732-818-3610. Remember at Garden State Hearing when you purchase hearing aids the batteries are FREE.

Dead Batteries? Consider Recycling Most newer household batteries no longer contain mercury, but they still have toxic elements that can pollute waterways and impact air quality.

When getting rid of old batteries, recycling may be an option. Check with your city, county, or state household hazardous waste management program for proper recycling or disposal options.

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 732-276-1011 or via Web site at gardenstatehearing.com. Expanded Whiting Hours!

Vitamin K2 Is A Powerful Prostate Cancer Fighter

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Couples have plans, but after the C word is dropped, those plans change to unite a couple in the medical process. After skin cancer, prostate cancer is the most widespread cancer among men, affecting one in seven every single year. Prostate cancer is also the third leading cause of cancer death, after lung and colorectal cancer, according to the American Cancer Society. The good news today is some significant strides are being made in the prevention of prostate cancer as well as the treatment of advanced prostate cancer. In fact, we have now learned that one remarkable nutrient can have wondrous cancer fighting and preventative properties for all kinds of cancers. You might have thought vitamin C or D3, but you’d be wrong. It’s actually vitamin K2.

Vitamin K2 is proving to be a marvelous ally in the war on prostate cancer.

In fact, K2 along with vitamin D3, work harmoniously together for a wide range of diseases. Higher levels of K2 and higher intake of K2 are associated with lower prostate cancer risk, and vitamin K2 deficiency status has been found in most men with aggressive prostate cancers.

Researchers for the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) have also found that increasing one’s intake of vitamin K2 may lower the risk of getting prostate cancer dramatically by up to 35%. With a one in seven risk of developing prostate cancer within their lifetime, this is

an encouraging discovery! But because we’re talking about a vitamin, I’m sure you won’t see commercials about it. And K2 is not something you have to buy, it’s commonly found in foods that most of us already enjoy like salads, green vegetables, green superfoods, as well as some meat and cheese. There are also supplements that are sold without prescription, at health food stores, however I encourage you to ask your physician if these are right for you, as K2 can interfere with blood-thinning medications.

For people on the healing process with cancer, their number one goal is to stop the spread of cancer to other organs and tissues, termed metastasis. When prostate cancer is caught early on, before it has spread to many other organs, the interventions are more useful.

Vitamin K2 has also proven to have neuroprotective effects upon the brain, preventing Alzheimer’s and dementia, to shuttle calcium out of the arteries and to the bones, where it hardens and strengthens them, helps wounds and bones to heal faster, improves the skin, and now hear this, reverses wrinkles as well.

Vitamin K2 is found in foods such as dairy products, meat, and dark leafy greens like salads, Swiss chard, spinach, and other greens. It is found in very high concentration in a popular Asian fermented soy dish called Natto. Other foods high in vitamin K2 include ground beef, liver, chicken as well we cheese, egg yolks and butter.

Inside The Law Enjoy The Holidays But Be Mindful Of Scams!

Robert C. Shea Esq.

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

Have you thought about giving a fancy new gadget as a holiday gift? Or maybe there’s something on your wish list that Santa forgot to bring? If so, you might be tempted by an Ad to purchase high-tech gadgets for a low price. But if a merchant, other than Amazon.com, asks you to pay using an Amazon gift card then it’s probably a scam. In fact, Amazon’s gift card terms don’t allow you to use Amazon gift cards to make payments anywhere besides amazon.com and a few specific sites.

Here’s how the scam happens: You discover a website that sells new HDTVs, GPS devices, and other tech-gadgets for deeply discounted prices. You haven’t heard of the site, but you’re diligent and you do some research. You find a few reviews from satisfied customers, you think the site is legitimate, and you go for it.

During checkout, you’re instructed to purchase an Amazon gift card and then hand over the gift card information as payment. Unfortunately, if you do, you’ll be out the money, and you won’t get anything in return. These scammers know that bad reviews scare people away, so they may post a few positive reviews about the site. They shut down the site before people post complaints — usually in less than a month — and open under a

new name somewhere else.

Buying an Amazon Michael J. Deem gift card to make a payment is NOT the same as using Amazon Payments, which provides some protections for buyers. Amazon Payments is a feature that allows Amazon members to pay for merchandise on other websites by logging in and using a payment method they’ve stored on their Amazon account. For example, if you use a credit card stored in your Amazon Payments account, you’re still using your credit card to make the purchase, and you get certain protections when you use a credit card. You don’t have the same protections when you pay with a gift card — virtually or physically. It could be tough to trace the money or get it back if something goes wrong.

Of course, that’s not a problem if you’re sending the gift card to a friend or family member as a gift.

When shopping online, consider using a payment method that offers protections if you don’t get what you paid for.

From everyone here at R.C. Shea & Associates, have a safe, happy and healthy Holiday season.

Our clients’ success is our greatest reward.

Seaside Installs Six Electric Vehicle Charging Stations

By Kimberly Bosco SEASIDE HEIGHTS – Good news for those environmentally conscious motorists out there!

Seaside Heights just received six new dual-port electric vehicle charging stations in the downtown area, announced Commissioner Catherine R. McCabe.

The charging stations were installed as part of an agreement with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) to resolve air-monitoring issues in the borough. They also support Governor Phil Murphy’s plans to make New Jersey 100 percent clean energy by 2050.

“The benefits of driving electric are numerous and vital to the environment as well as quality of life,” Commissioner McCabe said. “The installation of these stations advances New Jersey’s commitment to protect public health by reducing harmful emissions from gasoline-powered vehicles, improving air quality, and developing renewable and clean energy.”

The installation of the charging stations comes out of a settlement agreement with the NJDEP reached in 2017 after DEP Air Compliance and Enforcement inspections found Ocean County “out of compliance with numerous emissions and monitoring requirements in the operation of three diesel generators at the intersection of Sherman Avenue and Bay Boulevard,” according to a NJDEP release. These generators provide power to the borough.

The settlement stipulated that the borough implement a Supplemental Environmental Project, for which they agreed to install the charging stations for a total of $71,700. The agreement also included a penalty of $95,600; the borough paid the $23,900 penalty balance to the state.

“This project is a win-win for the state, Seaside Heights and the public,” said Richelle Wormley, Acting Assistant Commissioner for Compliance and Enforcement. “The addition of these charging stations will bring attention to the growing need for charging infrastructure across New Jersey and give visitors to Seaside Heights the opportunity to enjoy the nearby attractions while charging their electric vehicles.”

The charging stations are dual-port, which means that each station can charge two vehicles simultaneously. Four charging stations are in the municipal lot at 55 Grant Ave., and two stations are in the Ocean Terrace lot at 21 Hancock Ave. All stations are located near the beach, boardwalk, and other attractions.

To charge your vehicle, the cost is $1.50 for the first hour, the $2 per hour after that. Electric vehicles will receive parking discounts at the lots.

Electric vehicle owners can find the charging stations with the ChargePoint app. This app also allows you to track your vehicles’ battery percentage and the amount of greenhouse gas emissions avoided.

“It is unfortunate that the Borough of Seaside Heights unintentionally did not comply with certain conditions of our air quality permit as a result of equipment failures,” said Seaside Heights Borough Administrator Christopher Vaz. “The Borough strives to protect the environment, which includes both our air and water quality for our residents and those that vacation within our community. We were in a fortunate position to work with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and enter into an agreement that allowed us to install electrical vehicle charging stations within our community

to further reduce air pollution. The Borough plans on continuing to install additional charging stations as funds become available.”

NJDEP estimates that by 2023, these six charging stations will have prevented “emissions of an estimated 300 pounds of volatile organic compounds that contribute to ground-level ozone formation, as well as about 50 tons of carbon dioxide, the most prevalent greenhouse gas.”

Imagine it like this: for each ton of carbon dioxide avoided, it is the same as planting 24 trees. This is significant because, according to Paul Baldauf, Assistant Commissioner for Air Quality, Energy and Sustainability, “Transportation is the single largest source of both traditional air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions in the state.”

Throughout the state, there are over 600 public chargers at 250 locations. Five New Jersey

highways also have been federally designated as “Electric Vehicle Corridors,” where fast chargers allow for easy electric travel.

Depression And Bipolar Support Alliance (DBSA) Meetings

OCEAN COUNTY – As the holiday season approaches, are you one of those people who feel left out of the festivities? You are not alone.

If you suffer from mood disorders, we welcome you to attend our group. Those who have a family member or friend with these issues are also welcome. It is an entirely voluntary group

with no registration required, or payment of dues or fees, but we do accept a small voluntary donation. For more information, call Maureen at 732-536-5826.

By Bob Vosseller TOMS RIVER – It was held at a new location but things were just as festive and fun during the 18th annual Holiday Party of the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Ocean County.

More than 200 people enjoyed the celebration held on Dec. 16 at the Days Hotel and while Santa Claus may have been the big star in the eyes of the many children present, he had a lot of help in providing the magic that took place.

The organization’s director, Madaline Rice, said that each child receives three presents from Santa and “they enjoy balloon art, face painting, decorated cookies and a

wonderful lunch. We also have DJ music.”

“We want to thank the management and staff of the Days Hotel for everything they did and the Ocean County Women Realtors who wrapped the toys. Local businesses donated the toys and gift cards,” Rice said.

Days Hotel Banquet Manager Erik Schacht said he and his staff were very happy to be a part of the event. “It is a very good cause.”

Jackson Councilman Scott Martin observed his 18th year with the event. He said his role was to help raise money for the gifts for the children, as well as entertainment that was provided during the party, which (Holiday - See Page 21)

Continued From Page 20 included a magician and much more.

Martin said the celebration grew out of a small party with about 30 children and has grown tremendously over the years.

As per tradition, the party featured several visiting characters, one of whom was of course Santa Claus. A rather animated Gingerbread Man helped get the crowd excited before Kris Kringle’s arrival.

“It makes you feel warm inside,” Martin said amid a flurry of activity that included children enjoying the balloon animal creations made by Rockin Roxanne’s Party Magic, cotton candy and DJ Justin Love’s music who provided many popular holiday tunes that added to the atmosphere.

“We make this an experience, not just a party where you eat and receive a present and go home,” Martin said. He noted that another tradition of the event for him was his daughters’ involvement each year. “My wife and I have always taught to give back during the holidays. They are fortunate to have two parents and some of these children don’t have that.”

Rice said the organization wants to bring more awareness of a scholarship program offered by the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Ocean County to Ocean County College sponsored by an anonymous donor. “The program is for juniors and seniors and they get to tour OCC during the spring and attend class in September.”

She also noted that beyond the day’s party the organization adopted several families.

“We collaborate with others for the Need We Feed program and we had 60 families and our volunteers helped with this. Today’s event is all about making the children happy.”

Rice added that the organization currently has 150 “littles” and there is a waiting list for others. “We want to grow more but each staff member can only have so many

cases and we have to raise money to hire more staff.”

“We are working with the Toms River Police Department as well as with Lakewood and Brick for our Bigs in Blue program. We are looking to get funding for Lakewood to join,” Rice said. The program includes getting police officers involved with the organization.

“We collaborate with a lot of nice people.

We have a staff of six, and two part timers.

We have many board members and volunteers here today,” Rice said.

Jodi Grinwald, president and CEO of Zzak G Applaud Our Kids Foundation Inc. spoke about her organization’s mission during the event. The Foundation provides opportunities for children to creatively express themselves by taking ongoing lessons in various performing arts.

The Barnegat-based Foundation provides funding for children ages 7-18 to take ongoing lessons in vocal instruction, dance, acting, and instrumental music from September through June. “We build partnerships with local schools, as well as other community organizations, to identify students who meet the financial needs requirements. Students interested in applying for a scholarship will complete a simple application and must meet the financial needs requirements,” Grinwald said.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of dec 29 - jan 4

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): The search for love and companionship can challenge your judgment this week. It is easy to mistake lust for love or possessiveness for affection. Wait for better celestial patterns before making a romantic commitment.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): In the week ahead, you may feel an affinity for the tarot card that depicts a hoodwinked maiden. Like her, you may not be able to see everything clearly because your fantasies and desires blind you to the facts.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Rise above the fray. Act on your finest instincts and highest ideals and you will achieve harmony that stabilizes a key relationship. As this week unfolds make permanent improvements that enrich the future.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): In the week ahead, someone could be impressed by your stockpile of business knowledge. This may be a good time to turn a profit on what has only been a hobby. Be aware that you may misinterpret some messages.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Business ideas and ambition motivates you but acting on a desire for instant gratification can backfire. This is a poor week to dive into a new romantic partnership.

Something worth having it is worth waiting for.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Double check the dates and numbers. You might find that your schedule is disrupted by minor mix-ups and miscommunications. By the end of the week you will

forget that there were any problems or missteps.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You are judged by the company you keep. If you feel that others are not supporting your goals you may, unwisely, try to force the issue. Remain focused on business as usual even though there is a holiday this week.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You must work before you can play. Concentrate on work and maintaining your momentum even if someone is in relentless amorous pursuit. There will be plenty of time for romantic meetings later this week.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Make your way with words of wisdom. People will tend to trust you if you are frank and aboveboard. All the same, this is a poor week to make a promise, make an investment, or to start a new relationship.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Keep your nose pressed to the grindstone in the week ahead.

You might rather be out partying, but it will be hard work and perseverance that provide the greatest rewards. Enjoy the holidays when there is time.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Once you get to know someone better you may detect strong ethics. However, that serious side may dampen your expectations this week. A little patience will pay off where a romantic connection is concerned.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Wrap up business deals as well as presents. Complete whatever you have already begun. You will be better off if you wait until the end of the week to adjust your finances or make any further holiday purchases.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen A Festive French Dessert Brings Holiday Cheer

By Wolfgang Puck VACHERIN WITH HAZELNUT MERINGUE, QUICK GINGER ICE CREAM & CHOCOLATE-RUM SAUCE Serves 6 HAZELNUT MERINGUE: 1/2 cup (125 mL) whole shelled hazelnuts, about 2 ounces (60 g) in weight 4 large egg whites 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar QUICK GINGER ICE CREAM: 1 pint (500 mL) good-quality vanilla ice cream, softened 1/4 cup (60 mL) minced candied ginger CHOCOLATE-RUM SAUCE: 3 tablespoons unsalted butter 1/2 cup (125 mL) water 1/3 cup (85 mL) heavy cream 2 tablespoons honey 1/2 pound (250 g) bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped 2 tablespoons dark rum 1/2 cup (125 mL) sweetened whipped cream, for serving For the hazelnut meringues, preheat the oven to 350 F (175 C).

Spread the hazelnuts in a pie plate and bake them until lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Set aside to cool. Then, fold the nuts inside a clean kitchen towel and rub to loosen the skins. Unfold the towel, transfer the nuts to a food processor, and shake the skins into the trash. Pulse the processor on and off until the nuts are finely chopped. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.

Reduce the oven temperature to 225 F (105 C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a 3-inch (7.5-cm) cookie cutter as a guide, trace six circles on the paper, spacing them equally; turn the paper over.

In a medium-sized stainless-steel bowl, use a handheld mixer at medium speed to beat together the egg whites and cream of tartar until the whites form soft peaks that droop slightly when the beaters are lifted out. Still beating, gradually sprinkle in the granulated sugar; beat until the whites look glossy and form firm peaks that hold their shape when the beaters are lifted out, about 3 minutes. Stir in the vanilla. Hold a fine-meshed sieve over the bowl and sift the confectioners’ sugar over the egg whites while folding it in with a rubber spatula. Fold in the chopped hazelnuts.

Drop a large spoonful of this meringue inside each of the circles and spread until the circle is filled; then top with more meringue until each circle is about 1 inch (2.5 cm) tall, using the underside of the spoon to shape the center of each circle slightly lower than the side. Bake until the meringues are dry, crisp and barely browned, about 2 hours. Remove from the oven to a wire rack to cool completely. Then gently lift the meringues off the parchment and transfer to an airtight container.

For the ice cream, put the softened ice cream in a large bowl and stir in the candied ginger. Cover and freeze until firm, about 1 hour.

For the chocolate-rum Sauce, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the water, cream and honey, raise the heat to medium-high, and bring to a simmer. Put the chocolate in a medium bowl, and pour the hot cream mixture over it. Let stand until the chocolate melts, about 1 minute, then stir until smooth. Stir in the rum.

To assemble, place a meringue on each individual serving plate. Top with a scoop of the ice cream. Drizzle the sauce over the ice cream, and top with a dollop of whipped cream.

Serve immediately.
