By Jennifer Peacock MANCHESTER – Residents should exercise caution signing individual contracts with third-party energy providers, township officials warned.

As Manchester’s energy aggregation contract with Tri-Eagle Energy is set to expire June 30, and contract participants’ primary provider reverts to Jersey Central Power & Light, other private energy suppliers have been aggressively soliciting residents for their business, Mayor Kenneth Palmer.

Palmer urged residents to consider the following before entering into any agreements with energy providers: • Is the rate fixed or adjustable?

• If fixed, how long?

• If adjustable, how often does the rate adjust?

• How long is the overall contract?

Lakehurst Adopts 2019 Budget

The high school’s Navy Junior ROTC cadets attend the Memorial Day Remembrance Ceremony May 22.

By Jennifer Peacock LAKEHURST – The Lakehurst Borough Council recently adopted its $4.2 million budget.

The average Lakehurst residents, whose home is valued at $159,186, will see their 2019 borough tax bill increase $32, officials said. Home values dipped slightly from last year’s $159,544 average.

Taxpayers directly shoulder more than half the budget, as opposed to revenues from state aid and fees. The tax levy increased $42,785, from $2,502,065 in 2018 to $2,544,850 this year.

Town:

Continued From Page 1 • How does the proposed rate compare to JCP&L’s rate?

This includes signing on with Tri-Eagle, which is not obligated to provide the same rate the township locked into two years ago.

The township went out to bid for a new energy aggregation contract in the spring. The rates proposed did not beat out rates offered by JCP&L at the time.

The township will go out to bid again in the fall, and will be looking for lockedin rates 7-10 percent below what JCP&L offers.

“If the rates are beneficial, both the

Council and I will move to enter into a contract. We recognize the cost savings the Tri-Eagle contract provided to our residents, especially those fully serviced by electricity. However, we will not just enter into a contract for the sake of entering into a contract. The rates must support the decision,” Palmer said.

“Overall, Manchester’s first experience with an energy aggregation contract was successful. Despite a few customer service glitches, the program saved our residents legitimate money,” Palmer said.

“The Town Council and I are inclined to seek a second contract, but the terms must be right and the risk to our residents minimized. As this process progresses, we will keep you informed.”

Continued From Page 1 chief financial officer William Antonides Jr. said. Bail reform slammed local court revenues, which saw a shortfall of $32,723.

“It’s really been hurting small towns.”

The borough also saw an increase of more than $39,000 in statutory pension costs, Antonides said.

“I think it’s important to remember the budget is not locked in with dollar amounts. It’s a spending plan,” Council President Steven Oglesby said. “And where you can, within the cap limits, you want to [anticipate the revenues], because anything can change that. If you have five major taxpayers in town appeal their taxes and win, guess what? You’re anticipated revenues just went down. So you never know for sure.”

Cap limits are set by state ordinance that say towns can’t increase spending for most items past 2 percent.

One resident pointed out that Lakehurst has the highest general tax rate - the “multiplier for use in determining the amount of tax levied upon each property, expressed as $1 per $100 of taxable assessed value,” according to the state’s Division of Taxation - at $3.114 in 2018. (Barnegat came in second last year at $2.729, according to county tax records.)

“With Lakehurst being the highest-taxed town in the entire county - and I don’t really see much for it, in my opinion - does anybody ever sit around and think about, ‘Well, what can we do to try to not raise taxes so we can let other towns catch up?’”

Tim Sinkewitz asked. “In some situations, we’re a full 1 percent more than other towns.”

He would like to see the borough cut spending somewhere, whether through layoffs or not purchasing new vehicles or equipment every year.

Mayor Harry Robbins said any cuts would kill each respective department.

“Okay, well, you got to do some layoffs.

Figure out, maybe privatize some things that are currently being done in house,” Sinkewitz said.

“You really think we don’t think about that every year?” Oglesby asked.

Councilwoman Patricia Hodges pointed out that large purchases to replace equipment aren’t made spur of the moment. Each department has long-range schedules to replace aged-out equipment and vehicles.

“One of the main problems with us is, we have no industry here,” Robbins said.

“These other towns have industry, so they have these tax-break businesses.”

While there were no new services added in the 2019 budget, Antonides said no services from 2018 were cut.

Continued From Page 1 Joe Whelan and keynote speaker Earl Granville, a medically retired army veteran who gives inspirational talks based from his personal experience in combat and at home.

“Looking out here at our veterans, our military and our police, knowing how they make sacrifices to keep us safe, it’s easy to see why we should all be proud to be Americans today, and give them the recognition they’ve earned,” Superintendent David Trethaway said.

Manchester Township High School has lost three former students who served: Ronald Kubik, Nicholas Ott, and Matthew Zegan.

Kubik attended Manchester Township schools most of his life, until his family moved to Brielle. He graduated from Manasquan High School in 2006. He joined the Army in 2007 and ranked at U.S. Army Sergeant and Ranger. He served with the 3rd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment. He died while serving in Operation Enduring Freedom on April 23, 2010 in Logar Province, Afghanistan, and was posthumously awarded the Silver Star, the third-highest personal decoration for valor in combat.

Ott, a lifelong Manchester resident, joined the U.S. Marine Corps and rose to the rank of corporal. He served with the 1st Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division, III Marine Expeditionary Force, Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii. He received a number of medals, including

The Manchester Times, June 1, 2019, Page 5 the Pur ple Hear t, Nav y and Marine Cor ps Achievement, Combat Action Ribbon, Good Conduct Medal, National Defense Service Medal, Afghanistan Campaign Medal with one Bronze Campaign Star, Global War on Terrorism Expeditionary Medal, Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, Sea Service Deployment Ribbon with Two Bronze Stars, North Atlantic Treaty Organization Medal-ISAF, Rif le Marksman Badge and Pistol Marksman Badge. He also served in Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom and was killed during combat operations in Helmand Province on Aug. 10, 2011.

Zegan graduated Manchester Township High School in 1991. (He attended school with current high school principal Dennis Adams and Mayor Kenneth Palmer.) He joined the U.S. Army in 1993 and served with 2nd Battalion, 504th Parachute Infantry of the 82nd Airborne Division, and was stationed in Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He was practicing drills on the ground when a mid-air accident caused the debris from an F-16 to fireball through the staging area, killing Zegan and 23 others. The accident is considered one of the worst peacetime losses of life suffered by that Division since World War II. “Patriotism is more than just love and devotion for one’s country,” Manchester Police Captain Todd Malland said.

“Patriotism is a feeling that inspires us.

It’s a sentiment that fills our hearts with pride an optimism, and is an emotion

that sometimes brings us to tears.”

He said one just needs to look around to see the “simple yet poignant” acts of patriotism: the men and women in the Armed Forces around the world, on standby and ready to “preserve and protect” freedom because they believe in what America stands for. The same inspires local law enforcement, he said.

Malland quoted Jesus as recorded in the Gospel of John 15:13: “Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.” In the context of the passage, Jesus was speaking with his disciples and foreshadowing his coming crucifixion and resurrection.

But Malland invoked it to point to how military and law enforcement members lay down their lives for others.

“They put their lives on the line nearly every day, as do those who are in authority on a local basis…which require themselves to protect others, even at the risk of losing their own lives,” Malland said.

Keynote speaker Earl Granville - he and Staples met at a Tough Mudder competition - joined the Pennsylvania Army National Guard for the GI Bill tuition. He and his twin brother Joe went to Fort Benning, Georgia, for boot camp 10 days before the Sept. 11, 2001 attack in New York and Washington, D.C. Granville just wanted the free ride through college, not the chance to see war. Going AWOL seemed appealing until Joe talked him down.

He served in Bosnia and after return-

ing home and attending Lackawanna College for two semesters, volunteered to tour in Iraq with Joe. When opportunity opened its door to Afghanistan, Joe stayed behind to focus on his growing family. Granville went.

On June 3, 2008, Major Scott Hagerty took Granville’s seat in the vehicle they were driving in eastern Afghanistan. An IED tore through the vehicle. Hagerty and Specialist Derek Holland lost their lives. Granville lost his left leg.

Joe, carrying the guilt that he should have been there with his brother, took his life at Christmastime 2010.

Since that time, Granville has devoted himself to helping others and sharing the message that “It’s not about me, it’s about us.”

“Somet h i ng t hat I lea r ned really quick…you don’t need a unifor m to serve….You don’t need a uniform to make a difference in people’s lives.

Yo u d o n’t n e e d t o go ove r s e a s t o make a difference in your community and make sure people are safe here.

Sometimes it’s right in your backyard.

And I learned that during Operation Endu r i ng War r ior (a nonprof it that helps wounded veterans), as I built this leadership moving forward, to mentor other people, I started doing it at home too, volunteering my time.” In between classes, he volunteered at a soup kitchen in Scranton, Pennsylvania. “It was great to be a part of something once again to make a difference, not just for myself, not just for Joe, but for all of us.”

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY F eatured L etter “Hard Cap” On Taxes Is Nothing More Than A Name On July 3, 2010 Governor Christie reached a bipartisan consensus with Legislative leaders to provide long-awaited property tax relief for beleaguered New Jerseyans they called it a hard cap of 2 percent. Any waivers from this cap would have to be granted by a vote of the people, not the bureaucrats of a local board.

An override referendum would have to be approved by a simple majority of the voters. What seemed to be the answer to New Jersey’s runaway real estate tax problem was short lived. This year Little Egg Harbor Township has increased its proposed 2019-20 budget of 6.9-cent per $100 of assessed value to $.742 exceeding the cap by 8 percent.

One would think that such a hike in the tax rate a cap override referendum would apply, think again.

What most taxpayers do not know is that the 2 percent hard cap is not so hard because the law allows for exemptions from the cap that could be used for debt service payments, pension payments, and increase in health insurance costs.

And if all those exemp-

tions were not enough to keep any increase off the ballot lawmakers introduced another little known loophole called “banked cap.” This little but popular wrinkle in the law makes a mockery of the “hard cap.”

If a municipal or school budget is increased by less than 2 percent in a previous year, officials can exceed the 2 percent by that amount in a subsequent year. Even the name “banked cap” may have been created to confuse property owners. The only thing that has been “banked” here is the ability to raise taxes above the 2 percent cap without asking voters to say “yes.” Hard cap, Soft cap or No cap, we have gone the full circle. Beware of politicians when they make campaign promises that state “With my strong work ethic my agenda would be to stabilize or lower taxes” or “My goal has been, and continues to be, consciousness of our tax rates in order to keep them stable and/or reduce them” Art Mooney Little Egg Harbor

Letters To The Editor Murphy Gutted Bill That Would Shed Light On Dark Money We know here in New Jersey that outsiders often think of us as having an attitude, and to an extent, there’s some truth to that.

We have strong opinions and will defend them passionately if we disagree.

Some of the stereotypes about our home are overblown, but we can agree all over Joisey when getting cawfee for yous guys, that ones about corruption hit a little too close to the mark for anyone’s liking.

Why are we running our gover n ment like something out of the Sopranos?

When it comes to our political process, there is too much untraceable money, and it is definitely getting in the way of having a government that works for the voters.

Recently, a coalition of groups in the state, including Wolf-PAC and Represent.US, began working toward legislation that would shed some light on this dark money. The result was the unassumingly named S-1500, a detailed bill specifying campaign finance reform and transparency. This bill received strong popular support, leading to a passage in both chambers of the state legislature by a bipartisan majority, and there was not a single opposing vote in the Senate. Surely, this would be a new day for New Jersey politics, or at least the start of a new path.

Ent e r Gove r nor Ph i l Mu r phy. D e s pit e h ig h hopes, after over a month of no action or comment, the Gover nor has, with lit tle fanfare but much commentary in his twenty page document, perfor med some “ext reme dentistry” on S-1500, effe ct ively re mov i ng it s teeth by way of conditional veto. One has to won-

Letters To The Editor der what the motivations self-interest, meaning po- to need immediate attenare behind dismantling common-sense legislation with such strong popular and bipartisan support.

Governor Murphy makes a claim that the bill, as written, might get challenged in court and that there are some sources of dark money it does not address, but his solution is to weaken the bill, which is counterproductive. This is akin to shopping for a cake that serves 12, but only f inding cakes that serve 10, and since you don’t know if everybody will like the cake, you buy a pie that serves 8 instead, even though nobody asked for pie in the first place.

We do know that there has been an ongoing spat between Governor Murphy and Senate President Sweeney. Senator Sweeney has suppor ted this bill, including a portion that would force disclosure of donors by groups such as New Direction New Je r sey, a 501(c) 4 t h at favor s a nd is r u n

by Gover nor Mu r phy’s for mer campaign member, who is also a county freeholder. New Direction New Jersey had previously pledged to reveal who its donors were, but never came through. Perhaps of more interest, and more irksome to Governor Murphy, is the portion of the bill that bans elected off icials f rom involvement with independent expenditure committees.

Freeholder Brendan Gill would be forced to choose between his elected office and remaining with New Di re ct ion New Je r sey, but would not be able to continue in both capacities. It would seem to be com mon sen se t hat a n elected of f icial should not be involved in such groups, but this part of the bill would be removed

by Gover nor Mu r phy’s conditional veto.

At best, this is political in-fighting. At worst, this is a personal favor for

litical corruption. Either way, we mu st de m a nd better of our government.

We need to speak up, and we can make our voices heard through our Senators and Assemblypeople, by telling them to override Governor Murphy’s veto.

This should not be about political parties, or taking sides within the r uling party. This is about preser ving and protecting the integrity of our government and the electoral process.

Action has to happen!

Call your representatives and demand an override of Governor Murphy’s conditional veto of S-1500.

You can get more information on this, including help with contacting your representatives, by contacting Wolf-PAC NJ at ​n ewjersey@wolf-pac. com​.

What Happened To The Gas Tax Money?

I recently read testimony from Congressman Andy Kim (D-3rd), to the House Transportation Committee, regarding the infrastructure in Ocean County. According to Congressman Kim, due to many years of neglect f rom Washington and increased use, the infrastructure system throughout the State of New Jersey faces massive challenges. The Congressman adds that in his district alone there are 44 structurally deficient bridges with another 155 in need of repair.

In the article, Congressman Kim touches on several specific areas that appear

tion due to people’s lives being put in jeopardy. What the Congressman does not mention is the increase in gasoline tax that our previous and present governors imposed on all d r ivers within our state to go directly to infrastr uct ure repair. After these increases, any driver purchasing gasoline in the great State of New Jersey, has had to fork over almost an additional 30 cents per gallon, toward the gasoline tax.

Since these tax increases went into effect, I have not heard a single word about any of that money being spent on any bridge or road repairs. (Lord knows the northern end of the Garden State Parkway could definitely use some pot hole repair) Given the number of vehicles on our congested roads, every single day of the week, I can only imagine the amount of monies taken in by our State, yet our roads and bridges continue to fall into disrepair.

It’s great when you can point your finger and blame someone else for your issues, but how can you expect that someone to come in a clean your house if you don’t first try to clean it yourself. If Congressman Kim is right in his description of the condition of the nearly 200 bridges in his district, why are we spending so much time, energy and money on such issues as the legalization of marijuana? One would think that the safety and well-being of the citizens of New Jersey would be a little more important than the cannabis issue.

Hector Mejias Little Egg Harbor Editor’s note: The gasoline tax is currently 41.4 cents per gallon.

Winning Team Designed App To Help Patients With Alzheimer’s From The Desk Of

Congressman

Chris Smith WASHINGTON, D.C. Rep. Chris Smith (R-4th) praised the win ners of the New Jersey Fou r th Congressional District’s 2018 Congressional App Challenge for their hard

work, ingenuity, and desire to help others through their software app “BrainHack.”

“Liam, Erica and Anthony earned this award for their teamwork and

excellence, and their effort to serve other people,” Smith said. “Their app ‘BrainHack’ is desig ned to help persons struggling with memory loss and dementias such as Alzheimer’s, guiding them through fun mental exercises to strengthen creativity and memory-related functions.”

“Their impressive app not only showcases their technical expertise, but it performs a valuable ser-

vice for others who need assistance,” Smith said.

The creators of “BrainHack” all at tend Communications High School in Wall: Liam Marshall of Sea Girt; Erica Sammarco of Colts Neck; and Anthony Sasso of Colts Neck. They were honored with other students from around the country at the ‘House of Code’ reception on Capitol Hill where they presented their app.

The Congressional App

Challenge is a nationwide competition, created in 2014, for high school students to work with their peers to develop computer coding and software application skills. The challenge was created to foster ST EM sk ills (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) among young students as preparation for a possible career in fields like cybersecurity, intellectual property, and the software app economy.

All apps submitted to the NJ-04 competition were judged by a three-member panel with extensive experience in STEM fields: Roy LaManna of Freehold, the President and CEO of Vydia, Christopher Kelly of Hamilton, the UE/UI Designer at Vonage, and Debrah Smith (no relation to Rep. Smith) of Jackson, the Director of Administration/ Director of Information Technology for a large law office.

It was tough going at first, especially on Omaha where the American 1st and 49th Infantr y divisions were penned in by heavily fortified Germans dug in on the hills surrounding the beach.

The carnage and the bravery of these troops is accurately portrayed in the opening moments of Steven Spielberg’s Saving Private Ryan, which combat vets have told me is the most realistic combat scene ever recreated on the big screen.

Just to the west was Utah Beach, where the American 4th Infantry Division came ashore. Among those troops was John Santillo, now of Brick Township.

Last year Santillo was awarded the Legion of Honor by the French Government for his courage in liberating their nation. This year, thanks to an outstanding fundraising effort, Santillo is returning to France and the 75th D-Day Anniversary Commemoration.

Another Ocean County resident arrived in France hours before the troops hit the beaches.

Sgt. John Gutbrod, now of Surf City, was assigned to the 82nd Airborne Division, which landed in oc-

cupied France before dawn on June 6, 1944. These vanguard paratroopers fought a series of skirmishes overnight to protect the landing zones for the thousands of U.S. Soldiers that came ashore on the Longest Day. For his efforts, Gutbrod wa s a l s o awa rd e d t he French Legion of Honor.

These brave men are among only a handful of D-Day survivors living in Ocean County.

We also remember the men and women who are no longer with us. Men like 2nd Lieutenant Bud Lomell of Toms River, whose daring exploits on the battlefields of France saved countless American lives.

On D-Day, Lomell was among the rangers that scaled the cliffs overlooking the American landing beaches. Their objective was a battery of huge German cannons that could have targeted the invasion troops about to come ashore. Finding the bunkers that had housed the artillery empty, Lomell searched the countryside, found the huge guns and disabled them.

Noted historian Stephen Ambrose said that aside

from General Dwight D. Eisenhower, Lomell was the single man most responsible for the success of the Normandy landings.

For his bravery he was awarded the Silver Star, Bronze Star, Distinguished Service Cross and the Purple Heart.

Lomell, 91, died on March 1, 2011.

As liaison to the Ocean County Veterans Service Bureau, I’m proud to say that Ocean County is home to more veterans than any other county in New Jersey. I’m also proud to say that Ocean County never forgets it veterans.

From the skirmishes of the Revolutionary War, thru the battlefields of the Civil War, World War I and World War II, Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf War and today’s ongoing War on Terror, we thank all of our brave men and women who have worn, and who continue to wear, the uniform of the United States Armed Services.

Ocean County will mark the 75th Anniversary of D-Day with a special ceremony at the Ocean County Courthouse in Downtown Toms River at 12 noon on Thursday, June 6, 2019.

Library Knitters Seeking Yarn To Make Holiday Gifts for Kids

MANCHESTER – In time for the holidays, the Manchester Branch Library’s knitting and crocheting group will be making hats and scarves for children of Ocean County who are in need.

H ere ’ s T o Y our H ealth Dr. Izzy’s Sound News Presented By: Isidore Kirsh, Ph.D., F.A.A.A. (N.J. Lic. #678)

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

Sound Void?

A sound void is most commonly defined as a moment lacking clarity in hearing or understanding; an empty space in one’s life caused by the absence of sound clarity. Sound voids usually occur in specific listening situations where an individual’s hearing loss does not permit them to detect or understand important sounds and speech cues. Individuals often find that sound voids result in tiring, frustrating and embarrassing situations.

However you experience them – whether they happen during precious moments with your loved ones, critical conversations in the work place or in common everyday interactions – sound voids can detract from your ability to live your life to its fullest.

Do you often hear people talking but simply have difficulty understanding them?

Do you sometimes struggle to hear clearly in background noise?

Do you occasionally have trouble following the conversation in small groups?

Do you find it challenging to explain your hearing situation to others?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you may be experiencing the perception of “sound void”. The term sound void was created to help explain the gaps that some say that they experience in their day-to-day listening lives. If this sounds like you or someone you love, you should consider contacting your hearing health care professional today.

His offices are in Toms River, Whiting (expanded hours!), and Manahawkin. He can be reached at 732276-1011 or via Web site at gardenstatehearing.com. Dr. Izzy & Staff gives Retirement Community Talks!

5 Mind-blowing Reasons You Should Take Selenium

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. The Greek word “selene” means moon, and that’s where the trace mineral selenium gets its name. The most interesting part of selenium is that it’s sometimes used in dyes and paints to color things red.

Plants growing on Earth take up selenium into their roots. They get it from the soil and then it’s put into the food chain, and we obtain it through diet. Selenomethionine is a high-quality form of selenium that is also the main form of selenium occurring in Brazil nuts, cereal grains and soybeans.

Why would anyone want more selenium?

The main reason would be selenium’s powerful antioxidant properties. It helps neutralize free radicals by making two special detoxification enzymes: Catalase and Glutathione. Both of those enzymes are major players in terms of detoxification.

You’d die within minutes without them.

But there are 5 other mind-blowing reasons you should consider selenium: Selenium helps with breast cancer. Aside from selenium being a strong antioxidant which is useful in cancer situation, there is new research published in the journal, Nutrients (May 2019). Apparently, selenium is capable of alleviating lymphedema, commonly associated with breast cancer.

Lymphedema simply refers to the swelling that occurs in the arms and legs. Seventy-five percent of participants showed lymphedema improvement in just two weeks.

Selenium helps with the brain. The ability to neutralize oxidants which attack the brain helps reduce your personal risk of cognitive decline. Several selenium-derived proteins termed “selenoproteins” are expressed in

brain. We also know that both detoxification enzymes, glutathione and catalase, are present in glial cells. Glial cells feed and protect nerve cells. Selenium is needed to keep those glial cells healthy.

Selenium helps control hemochromatosis.

A genetic condition, overload of iron (hemochromatosis) is sometimes misdiagnosed and inadequately treated. Iron concentrations were slightly higher (up to 2 and a half times higher) in selenium deficient rodents.

The “Transferrin Saturation” with iron was almost twice as high in selenium deficient rodents, compared to those with normal levels of selenium.

Selenium helps make thyroid hormone.

Selenium has been shown in several clinical trials over the past few decades to slow the progression of, and reduce symptoms of thyroid illness. It’s needed for the enzymes that convert inactive thyroxine T4 to biologically active T3 and it’s needed to reduce TPO antibodies. Also, selenium might help with Graves’ eye problems, termed orbitopathy.

Selenium for PCOS. Selenium has insulin-like properties which means it can help with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome or PCOS. A new article published in the journal, Molecules (April 2019) suggests it may help with insulin resistance. There’s a definite correlation between low selenium leading to hypothyroidism, then leading to PCOS. Labs don’t usually pick this disorder up. Please grab a copy of my best-seller, Thyroid Healthy to learn more about thyroid conditions. And if you’d like more information on selenium, PCOS or dosing information, just sign up for my free newsletter at suzycohen.com and I’ll send you the longer version of this article next week.

Ocean County Has New Royalty

By Chris Lundy TOMS RIVER – Long live Queen Agatha and Queen Ursula.

Those are the two queens of honeybee hives that were set up the first week in May. The two hives are by the Cooper Environmental Center, on the opposite side from the butterf ly garden. Some bird feeders are next to them, providing raccoons or whatever wanders nearby an easy bite to eat so they won’t be tempted to steal honey, recreation aide Zach Keczkemethy said.

They were shipped to the park 1,000 or so bees in one box. The queen is separate

Two New Honeybee Queens Join Park

from the hive. She comes in a delivery in a cell closed off by sugar candy. The bees eat through the candy to free her.

“The common wisdom is to give them time to settle in,” Keczkemethy said.

Then check on them to see how they are getting along.

The two hives can co-exist, and won’t compete for resources, he said, despite being neighbors.

This is not the first time Cattus has played host to a hive. Last year, their queen died and the hive failed, he said.

The park holds educational programs throughout the year (which can be found

at OceanCountyParks.org) and the hive provides another learning opportunity – to show people how important the insects are to the natural world.

According to the Earth Day Network, one-third of the country’s food depends on pollination from honey bees and other insects. The number of hives has in America decreased from 6 million in the 1940s to about 2.5 million today.

The United States Department of Agriculture released a study showing there was a 9 percent decline in colonies of five or fewer hives from Jan. 1, 2016 to Jan. 1, 2017. During the same period, there was a drop of about 10,000 colonies of more than five hives.

Information like this has made it out to the general public. Keczkemethy said hobby beekeeping and people making their yards more bee-friendly has helped

with these statistics.

Keczkemethy said that local residents can help bee populations by: • Plant only native species • Leave weeds to grow in an unused part of your yard • Limit pesticides and chemical fertilizers The Earth Day Network suggests doing these things to help support honey bees: • Reduce the amount of pesticides that are killing honey bees and other pollinators • Support local beekeepers by getting your honey from local farmers’ markets and other local businesses • Create a pollinator habitat with bee-friendly plants in your yard or on your school or business property • Plant a bee water garden to attract pollinators

R.C. Shea & Assoc.

Inside The Law Consumer Rights And Data Breach: Protecting Yourself From Identify Theft

Robert C. Shea Esq.

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

The recent data breach by Equifax meant that sensitive personal information for 145 million Americans was potentially exposed, including Social Security numbers, birthdates, addresses and, in some instances, driver’s license numbers. This incident has left many consumers wondering how they can protect themselves from identify theft.

Monitor your Account Check your financial account transactions regularly. Opt-in for alerts that screen for questionable transactions and opt-in for multifactor authentication. Look for charges that you don’t recognize, even if they were for small amounts. Sometimes scoundrels test the waters with small charges. Be aware of communications claiming to be from credit reporting agency or financial institution.

Review Credit Reports By law, all consumers are entitled to a free credit report every 12 months from each of the three major credit reporting agencies (Equifax, Experian and TransUnion). You can request a free credit report from annualcreditreport.com, by phone or mail. Any site other than annualcreditreport.com is not part of the legally mandated free annual credit report program. Make sure you spell

the annualcreditreport. Michael J. Deem com domain name correctly and avoid lookalike scam sites.

Place a Freeze A credit freeze prevents new creditors from accessing your credit file and others from opening accounts in your name. A freeze could stop identity thieves because most (but not all) businesses will not open credit accounts without checking your credit report. A credit freeze does not prevent identity thieves from taking-over your existing account.

Set a fraud alert!

A fraud alert requires creditors who check your credit report to take steps to verify your identity before opening a new account, issuing additional card or increasing your credit limit on an existing account. A fraud alert is free. You can place an initial alert on your account for 90 days if you have not been a victim of identity theft.

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.

Our clients’ success is our greatest reward.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of june 1 - june 7

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Find where you belong and connect with your tribe. You can make friends in the week ahead who will support your business ambitions or share your various interests.

Networking can help you achieve your goals.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You may be challenged by destabilizing influences in the week ahead. Every change of plan or unexpected event requires you to put on your thinking cap, but with the right attitude you can take it all in stride.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Your own priorities may be at odds with what your romantic partner wants and needs. In the week ahead you may need to perform a balancing act to avoid the appearance of a lack of consideration that could undermine your relationship.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): The wrong words can be impossible to un-say. When someone suffers from foot in-the-mouth disease the awkwardness can disrupt communications for some time. Make an effort to be honest but diplomatic in the upcoming week.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Give an inch to gain a mile. You may experience challenges when engaged in one-on-one negotiations in the week ahead if you are unbending. At the workplace don’t take someone’s deceptions personally; it reflects on them, not you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Dig in your heels and use your ambitions to make your way forward.

This could be a good week to begin a new diet or start newer and better habits because you can harness your willpower and exercise powerful self-discipline.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You may find yourself caught between a rock and a hard place at some point in the week ahead. Your generosity and fairness can counteract pressure and any attempts at coercion. You may feel resistant to new techniques or ideas.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Be as steady as a rock and you will rock it. People know they can rely upon you to be responsible, thoughtful and ethical.

You can be counted upon to offer a level-headed approach when others experience a crisis.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Pollyanna looked for something good in everything and because she looked, she found it, so can you. Even if there are good reasons, think carefully before parting with your hard-earned cash in the week ahead.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Leave a legacy. You can build something substantial with your hard work and dedication. In the week to come you might be more concerned with realizing your ambitions rather than making others feel loved.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Make an assessment of your budget before you make purchases, so you don’t waste your resources in the week ahead. Gather advice from an expert who can guide you on subjects such as living more sustainably.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Count your blessings daily, and before you count out dollars to spend. You may have some costly desires in the week ahead, but it’s really all about attitude. Ben Franklin said, “Contentment makes poor men rich; discontent makes rich men poor.”

Wolfgang Puck’s Kitchen Make A Big, Fresh Impression As You Kick Off Summer Grilling Season

By Wolfgang Puck MEDITERRANEAN-STYLE GRILLED WHOLE RED SNAPPER WITH FENNEL AND PERNOD BUTTER SAUCE Serves 4 to 6 For the fish: 1 whole fresh red snapper or other firm-fleshed mild white fish such as branzino or sea bass, about 3 pounds (1.5 kg), gills, guts and scales removed Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 2 fennel bulbs, trimmed, fronds reserved, bulbs cut into slices 1/4-inch (6-mm) thick 6 sprigs fresh thyme 2 sprigs fresh oregano 1 lemon, thinly sliced, seeds removed 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil For the Pernod butter sauce: 1/4 cup (60 mL) water 1 lemon, juiced 1 tablespoon Pernod 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces Tender inner fronds from 1 fennel bulb (see above), finely chopped Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper Build a hot fire in an outdoor charcoal grill, or preheat a gas grill on high.

Meanwhile, rinse the snapper inside and out with cold running water. Pat thoroughly dry inside and out with paper towels.

With kitchen shears, cut off any large fins. Season the cavity

with salt and pepper.

Stuff the fronds from 1 fennel bulb into the cavity. Add the thyme and oregano, and press the cavity closed. With a sharp knife, cut three equally spaced diagonal slashes through the skin and down to the bone in the flesh on each side of the fish.

Insert one lemon slice into each slit. Brush the fish all over with olive oil and season the outside with salt and pepper.

With a grill brush, scrub the grill’s cooking grid. Quickly and carefully brush the surface of the hot grid with olive oil. Place the stuffed fish diagonally across the preheated grid and cook for about 10 minutes; then, carefully slide two sturdy grill spatulas under the fish and rotate it 90 degrees, sliding out the spatulas and leaving the fish to cook on the same side until the flesh is firm but still moist, about 5 minutes longer.

Carefully use the spatulas to turn the fish over and cook on the other side for at least 10 minutes, until the flesh looks opaque and lifts easily from the bone but is still moist.

As soon as the fish starts cooking, place the fennel slices on a large platter, drizzle with olive oil, and turn to coat evenly.

When you turn the fish over, arrange the slices on the grill and cook until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side. Remove to a platter and keep warm.

For the sauce, place a small saucepan on the grill or on a stove burner over medium heat. Add the water, and bring to a simmer. Add the lemon juice and Pernod, and cook until reduced by about a third. Remove the pan from the heat, and whisk in the butter a few pieces at a time until fully incorporated; then, whisk in the chopped fennel fronds. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

With the metal spatulas, carefully remove the fish from the grill and transfer to a large serving platter. To serve, starting at the slits cut in the flesh before cooking, use a spatula to lift portions of the fillet from the bone, transferring to individual serving plates. Arrange grilled fennel slices around the fish and spoon some sauce over each portion.
