By Kimberly Bosco FREEHOLD – County officials unveiled the new designated veterans parking space at the Monmouth County Clerk’s Office, in honor of Military Appreciation Month.

Monmouth County Clerk Christine Giordano Hanlon hosted the dedi-

cation ceremony, accompanied by Sheriff Shaun Golden, Freeholder Director Thomas A. Arnone, Freeholder Lillian G. Burry, and Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Office Prosecutor Christopher J. Gramiccioni.

“Last year, over 500 veterans visited our office to obtain a Mon-

mouth County Clerk Veterans’ Identification Card, which gives veterans the ability to receive valuable discounts from local retailers through the Clerk’s “Honoring our Heroes” Military Appreciation Program,” read a statement from the county clerk’s social media. In another effort to

serve local veterans, the designated parking space will allow veterans easier and more convenient access to the Monmouth County Clerk’s Office.

Pride “Protests” Light Up Ballpark With Color

By Kimberly Bosco LAKEWOOD - Whether you were leaving from a game at the Lakewood BlueClaws or just passing through, you might have caught a glimpse of the rainbow of people lining the corner of New Hampshire and Cedar Bridge Ave. More than one hundred supporters of the LGBTQ community came out in full force opposing a protest

coordinated against local Pride Month celebrations, spearheaded by Lakewood’s Rabbi Yesuda Levin.

The protests were on June 6, although the Pride Night held at the stadium was actually on June 8.

The rabbi organized the rally on Thursday because Saturday was a holy day.

Internship Program Connecting Youth With Local Government

By Kimberly Bosco HOWELL – It was 2017 when now-councilman Thomas Russo had the idea, before he campaigned his way onto the Howell Township Council. Now half a year into his first term, Councilman Russo is ensuring that his idea becomes a reality.

In an effort to spark an interest in local government with more of the younger population, Russo came up with the idea to establish an internship program.

“I found that one of the best ways to accomplish that goal was to create an internship program and partnership with Howell High School and their AP government program,” Russo told Jersey Shore Online. “The idea started when a few friends and I volunteered (Intern - See Page 4)

at a [Howell High School] voter registration drive back in 2017.”

In speaking with actual high school students, Russo got the impression that there are many kids out there that have an interest in local government and policy, noting that their “passion and excitement” was clear.

In the nearly two years since, Russo campaigned and won a seat on the Howell Township Council, allowing him to begin the groundwork on the internship program.

“After getting sworn in, I began drafting a rough outline on how I pictured the internship program would be run… The goal would be to afford our high school government students the opportunity to gain up-close and real-life exposure to the inner workings of our local government,” Russo explained.

It has been nearly seven months since Russo, one of the younger members of the current council, was sworn in. In that short time, he expressed that he continues to learn a lot about how local government processes work, gaining useful insight.

And as a Howell native and former student at Howell High School, Russo knows just how valuable this additional experience could be.

This experience has only strengthened the foundation of his internship program, noting that “giving our high schoolers the opportunity to work alongside our administrators and fellow councilmembers, and to see first-hand how our government functions, would be a tremendous and valuable learning experience that would prepare them for a career in government and policy making.”

While the project is still in the works, there has already been some progress getting the idea off the ground. Back in January, he met with Howell High School Principal Jeremy Braverman as well as the vice principal and AP Government teacher to discuss the possibility of a partnership with the township to provide students with the internship.

“I am happy to announce that after meeting with the principal and vice principal of Howell High School, the administration agreed to move forward with the program.

This would be the first of its kind in Howell Township,” read a post to Russo’s official Facebook page on January 28.

Since that first meeting, word about the internship spread and Russo began receiving inquiries from parents and teachers about joining the program.

One call came from his former wrestling coach, Coach Brandel. Brandel introduced Russo to Howell High School wrestler and senior Jacob Wurtz, who is now Russo’s very first intern. Jake is also a Peer Leader, Anytown Student Rep, and Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD) President.

“Jake and I met [in February] and immediately hit it off. He has been my intern ever since and doing a fantastic job. He is a natural leader, committed student and hardworking young man with an extremely bright future. It has been an honor having him as my intern and friend these past few months,” said Russo.

In has only been a few months, but the pair have already made the rounds at various events providing Jake with essential experience before he heads off to college at West Virginia University in the fall.

Russo noted that he and Jake have made appearances at a Howell PBA dinner, a Senior Services Volunteer Recognition Luncheon, Student Government Day, Clean Communities Clean Up Day, and a few Eagle Scout ceremonies, among others.

One of Jake’s most important tasks as intern is drafting policy memos to provide a younger perspective on current issues.

His final project will be a policy memo on the impact of Lyme’s disease and other tick-borne illness on Howell Township, Russo added, which was presented to Congressman Chris Smith at the May 29 congressional town hall meeting.

While Russo would like to remind everyone that the project is still in its early stages, it is expected to roll out next year.

Smith Honored For His Leadership In Fighting Anti-Semitism From The Desk Of

Congressman

Chris Smith WASHINGTON, D.C. - Rep. Chris Smith (R-4th) was honored by the Anti-Defamation League with the America’s Democratic Legacy Award - the organization’s highest honor - for his bipartisan leadership in Congress in fighting anti-Semitism around the world.

“It is a distinct honor to be

here with such great members of Congress who care deeply.

Bipartisanship is not dead, as you can see,” said Smith, a founding co-chair of the Bipartisan Congressional Task Force for Combating Anti-Semitism who was recognized with the award along with the seven other Task Force co-chairs. The Task

Force was recognized collectively, and each co-chair received an award individually from ADL’s Senior Vice President for Policy Eileen Hershenov.

Smith commended the hundreds of ADL members from across the country in attendance at the organization’s National Leadership Summit in Washington, D.C., for their work in helping fight anti-Semitism.

“Your presence here today, your leadership makes all the difference in the world,” Smith said. “It inspires everyone to do more, to work across the aisle, to make sure

Legacy Award was created 50 years ago to honor “those precious few individuals who have helped make our nation a place where freedom, equality and democracy are cherished rights forever.”

After receiving the award, Smith discussed a recent manifestation of anti-Semitism, illegitimate criticism of Israel.

He referenced former Soviet refusenik Natan Sharansky’s classification of anti-Semitic criticism of the State of Israel - the “three D’s” standard of “demonization, delegitimization, and double-standard.”

“We see the double-standard all over the world, particu-

we combat anti-Semitism every time and everywhere it manifests its ugly face.”

“Combating anti-Semitism is a fundamental part of all basic human rights standards and international protocols,” said Smith, a lawmaker known for his leadership on international human rights. “Regrettably, I have to tell you, anti-Semitism is getting worse. The statistics clearly show a rise in anti-Semitic incidents in the Middle East, in Europe, and all over the world. So we need to raise our voices, and pass legislation that will put wholly an end to it.”

The America’s Democratic

larly at the United Nations where the Israelis are picked out when other countries like Sudan and the People’s Republic of China get a slap on the wrist, Israel is always in the cross-hairs and subject to demonization and delegitimization is ever-present,” Smith said.

The co-chairs of the Task Force, who were also honored, are Rep. Smith, Rep. Eliot Engel (D-NY), Rep. Nita Lowey (D-NY), Rep. Kay Granger (R-TX), Rep. Ted Deutch (D-FL), Rep. Marc Veasey (D-TX), Rep. Randy Weber (R-TX) and Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA).

Bill Would Strengthen ‘Code Blue’, Help Homeless Get Support TRENTON – The New Jersey Senate has passed legislation sponsored by Senator Robert Singer and Senate Republican Leader Tom Kean to ensure at-risk individuals who turn to a warming center for shelter during a Code Blue alert have access to lifesaving services during their stay.

The bill, S-3511, passed the Senate on May 30, 2019.

“Although shelters often experience a higher demand during Code Blue season, more often than not, a person in crisis will show up during a snowstorm, and leave without knowing where to go next. We may not get another chance to help that person. That’s unacceptable,” Singer said.

“People should have access to the support they need, when and where they need it. This bill will solve that problem, by ensuring the right personnel are on the ground, ready and willing to answer any questions and provide quality care to those in need, before the storm ends,” Singer added.

The passage of S-3511 represents another step forward in the Senators’ ongoing efforts to strengthen New Jersey’s Code Blue regu-

lations, which were signed into law in 2017 by Governor Christie.

Just last February, Singer and Kean answered local calls for action by introducing related legislation, S-3422, to change New Jersey’s Code Blue standards so that an alert is triggered at 32 degrees, regardless of precipitation.

Currently, a Code Blue is triggered when temperatures drop to 32 degrees with precipitation, or 25 degrees with no precipitation. That standard became especially problematic last December, when homeless people were turned away from warming centers in Toms River even though it was 27 degrees, because conditions were freezing, but dry. Those stories, and the calls for action by local officials, prompted Senators Singer and Kean to introduce legislation to improve Code Blue.

The current Code Blue law also requires county offices of emergency management to coordinate with municipalities with a documented homeless population of at least 10 people to develop consistent Code Blue alert plans throughout the coun-

ty. After a county emergency management coordinator declares a Code Blue, local law enforcement officers are notified so they can go out on patrols and locate at-risk individuals.

Senator Singer and Kean’s S-3511, as passed by the State Senate, would take Code Blue to the next level, by authorizing the New Jersey Commissioner of Health to establish guidelines for offering certain healthcare and social services to at-risk individuals at a warming center.

Under the bill, these services could include vaccinations, physical and mental health screenings, and referrals for substance abuse treatment and various social services.

S-3511 would also authorize a coordinator to create a volunteer registry of healthcare workers, social service providers, and support personnel who could consent to voluntarily provide these services at a warming center during a Code Blue alert.

The legislation states that these volunteers would be protected by New Jersey’s Good Samaritan law, meaning that they would not be liable for any civil damages

as a result of their efforts to provide care or treatment in good faith during a Code Blue alert.

“When we introduced legislation to improve Code Blue last winter, we knew that we had more work to do on behalf of the thousands of homeless and nearly homeless people in New Jersey who need our help,”

Senator Kean said. “I advocated for enacting Code Blue statewide back in 2017 because I strongly believe that everyone deserves a safe place to stay warm, and the support they need to get back on their feet after the storm.

“Having people on-site to complete screenings and provide information about

the services available is the best chance we have to help a family in crisis grow beyond their current challenges. This legislation will transform those moments of crisis into new, healthy starts. It’s the proactive change that every family in need deserves,” Kean added.

Pride:

Continued From Page 1 open windows at the high-spirited crowd as they rounded the corner. Supporters decked out in rainbow colors and creative headgear held up signs with messages of pride, facing off against Levin and his supporters on the opposing corner. The Pride side dwarfed Levin’s Pride month protest by a landslide.

The celebration/protest was accentuated by the flashing of red and blue lights as Lakewood Police Officers directed traffic and kept order at the intersection.

The leader of the anti-pride sentiment in the protest was Rabbi Levin, a staunchly conservative rabbi who has been preaching anti-gay and anti-abortion beliefs for many years, even during his candidacy for New York City mayor in 1985.

In the days leading up to the protest, videos of Levin condemning Pride celebrations, calling them an “abomination” and a “homosexualization” of the community, were shared repeatedly over social media.

In a first video, which was shared on the First Amendment Activist Facebook page, Levin targets the Ocean County Library’s various Pride-themed events. Various branches of the Ocean County Library take part in Pride by highlighting books, speakers, movies, and more that focus on LGBTQ themes, promoting tolerance and understanding.

In the video, Levin preaches “keep your hands off the minds of our children,” calling those at the Lakewood BlueClaws stadium “lowlife scum” for hosting a gay pride event.

A second video followed in which Levin proceeded to denounce the BlueClaws celebration and urged people to come out to the protest. Levin stated that these Pride celebrations were contributed to the “homosexualization” of a community “whose community standards and values are traditional and biblical.”

Levin goes on to cite “Pride” celebrations as a “threat to Jews, Christians, and Muslims alike.”

The BlueClaws’ Pride celebration includes a BlueClaws Pride Night Hat Giveaway for the first 1,500 fans and fireworks following the game, according to their website.

LGBTQ supporters who came out to the protest made it clear that Levin’s sentiments were not universal. Some toted signs with Pride-themed messages such as “I support my LGBTQ friends” and “What’s so bad about a little pride?” Others made signs with more pointed messages for Levin like “Religion is no cause for hate,” “Homophobia is not tolerated in Ocean County,” and “Free hugs for non-bigoted bastards.”

All the while, the crowd carried on chants of “Pride Doesn’t Die,” “U.S. of Gay,” and “Love Not Hate.”

To register or for information on becoming a sponsor, reach out to CONTACT at 732-240-6104 or email contactofoceanco@aol.com. Race applications can be found at contactoceanmonmouth.org.

Many of these supporters made the decision to come out to the protest after seeing Levin’s flyer, which quickly made the rounds on social media prompting members of the community to join the fight against Pride, at the BlueClaws Stadium on June 6. The flyer states: “This abomination must stop!!!…This abomination celebration will victimize young innocent children. No other FAMILY FRIENDLY towns in Ocean County have such outrages (sic) events which are antithetical to our religious sensitivities. Our children are already bombarded in schools/media/entertainment with terrible anti-family brainwashing. Gay Pride events at family venues like sporting events, bowling alleys, malls, shopping centers or even Ocean County College. Do not sexualize kids at public events!!”

A former Lakewood resident of 30 years, Janet came out to the protest in support of her LGBTQ son.

“It’s my turn to start getting out there…It was his [Levin’s] viral things that literally made me sick,” she said. “He was spouting evil.”

Janet made a sign specifically for Levin that read: “You are acting like Hitler, with hate in your heart towards others. May God forgive you in your ignorance!”

Sporting homemade t-shirts with the slogans “Exceptional Bisexual” and “Born This Gay” on them, Kristyn Holleran and Nicole Spano of Toms River were happy to see such a sizeable turnout in favor of Pride.

“I saw the flyer on Facebook…and I didn’t love it,” said Holleran. “It’s a blue state but it’s kind of a red county so I didn’t expect to see this much support.”

Holleran joked that last year was known by many in the LGBTQ community as 20-“gayteen” (2018), making this year 20-“Bi-teen” (2019).

On the opposing corner sat Levin and his supporters, a crowd only a fraction of the size of the Pride side. Members of the Jewish faith, with megaphone in hand, stated: “There is no pride in sin. America teaches you that you can do what you want and get away with it, but guess what? There is a God in this world.”

These protesters toted signs preaching “self-control” and “holiness” as America’s principles.

Despite the videos and flyers, BlueClaws Pride went on as planned, with a match against Greensboro.

“The BlueClaws consider themselves an open and inclusive organization and member of the community,” said BlueClaws Team President Joe Ricciutti. “We want to show the LGBT community that they are welcome at BlueClaws games, and always will be welcome at BlueClaws games.”

Even Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley Billhimer condemned the protest, citing the “Love Thy Neighbor” campaign, claiming there is “no place for hate in Ocean County.”

Around The Jersey Shore Flight Rally Bringing Local Kids To New Heights

—Photo courtesy EAA Young Eagles

By Kimberly Bosco WALL —Monmouth County saw 39 new young aviators take their first flight during the Young Eagles Flight Rally over the weekend. Hosted by Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) Chapter 315 of the North Jersey Shore, 39 boys and girls from 8 to 17 years old got to take a unique airplane ride at the event, held on June 8 at Monmouth Jet Center.

Created in 1992, the EAA Young Eagles Program is intended to incite interest in aviation among youth. In the past 27 years, EAA pilots have taken over 2 million kids, from over 90 countries, on flights. Since 2004, Chapter 315 has flown more than 640 kids at local airports in Monmouth, Lakewood, and Old Bridge.

The annual event is free to participants.

The pilots volunteer their time to take participants on a flight and teach them all

they want to know about the airplanes. The young aviation enthusiasts learned what makes an airplane fly, what it takes to get a pilot’s license, and what career possibilities exist in the world of aviation. They even got a chance to see a WWII L-2 spotter airplane, educational displays from the New Jersey Aviation Education Council, and more.

After the flight, each participant received a logbook and a certificate making him or her an official Young Eagle. Their names will then be entered into the “World’s Largest Logbook,” which is on permanent display at the EAA Air Adventure Museum in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. You can also find it online at youngeagles.org.

For more information on EAA or the Young Eagles Program, visit eaa.org or youngeagles.org. Follow the local Chapter 315 page at facebook.com/EAAChapter315.

MRHS Sophomore Selected For Course At Harvard Summer School MARLBORO – Ryan Kryscnski Ryan Kryscnski, a sophomore at Marlboro High School, has been selected to attend the Harvard Summer School, a selective residential summer program, for a medical course.

The course Ryan will be taking is called, “Why Haven’t We Cured Cancer Yet? Insights from Evolution, Ecology, and Paleontology.” According to its website, during the course participating students tackle this question by taking a multidisciplinary approach to learn about cancer biology by discussing how the disciplines of ecology, paleontology, and extinction biology can help interpret the ever-growing body of DNA sequencing information, and revisit medical and scientific paradigms in oncology to ultimately inform therapeutic decisions.

Through the program, students also have the opportunity to explore life at Harvard University and in the surrounding city, as well as to attend interesting seminars taught by Harvard faculty.

R.C. Shea & Assoc.

Inside The Law CALL TO ACTION! TIME IS RUNNING OUT. S-2432/A-5371 Permits recovery of uncompensated medical expenses in civil action that result from motor vehicle accidents This Bill (S-2432/A-5371) is now Governor Murphy’s desk for his consideration. We urge you to call Governor Murphy NOW and tell him to sign this Bill.

(609) 292-6000.

The New Jersey Association for Justice and R.C. Shea & Associates strongly support S-2432/A-5371, which will allow victims of motor vehicle accidents to seek payment for medical expenses that may exceed insurance coverage they have under Personal Injury Protection coverage (PIP).

This bill is needed in light of the New Jersey Supreme Court decision in Haines v. Taft, which limits payments for medical care to the insured’s PIP limits with no regard to the actual extent of the injuries sustained and the cost of treatment and care. In many cases, and especially for those lower-income individuals who followed the law and shopped for an insurance policy they could afford, that PIP limit is as little as $15,000.

This decision discriminates against those in New Jersey who do not have the financial resources to buy high levels of insurance or

Robert C. Shea Esq.

PIP coverage.

As Justice Barry T. Albin said in his dissenting opinion in the case, the decision “will have a catastrophic impact on the right of low-income automobile accident victims to recover their medical costs from the wrongdoers who cause their injuries. The decision leaves innocent automobile accident victims without the legal right to sue negligent and reckless drivers for recovery of their unpaid medical bills – medical bills that will bankrupt some and financially crush others.”

The majority decision in Haines invited the Legislature to step in and correct this unjust situation and S-2432/A-5371 does precisely that. This bill would clarify that the Legislative intent is that a victim injured in an auto accident should not be left with crushing medical bills and no legal recourse against the tortfeasor.

The public policy of the state of New Jersey simply cannot be that consumers risk potential bankruptcy or financially devastating medical bills in exchange for lower premiums.

Injured auto accident victims should not be left to pay for the medical care necessitated by the negligent actions of those who have injured them.

Your Medication May Deplete Life-Giving Hormones

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

DHEA is dubbed the “Fountain of Youth” hormone, and it is produced in high quantities during your younger years. After age 30, it slowly begins to decline. It may eventually flat-line, especially if you are under a lot of stress, or you take a popular medication category called a “statin” which is for cholesterol management.

DHEA stands for dehydroepiandrosterone and it’s a naturally-made steroid. There are synthetic versions available for supplementation, however I don’t recommend you do that without first speaking to a bio-identical hormone expert.

It is what’s known as an “androgen” hormone, think of that as a manly hormone, so it can cause male-pattern hair growth. In women this can be very unsettling, think of facial hair, and loss of scalp hair, or deepening of the voice, acne, missed periods and PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome).

Much of the research is done on higher levels (ie how to reduce elevated DHEA).

A glaring omission is low DHEA due to medication use. There are several medications that can deplete levels of DHEA, thus aging you faster. One such category is statin cholesterol medications. If you take a statin, you should definitely speak to your physician about restoring your DHEA, either through supplementation or prescription hormones.

Taking statins can deplete DHEA, it’s what I call the ‘drug mugging’ effect, where a drug mugs a nutrient or essential life-giving hormone. With statin use, you become

deficient in DHEA. There are studies to show this.

Low DHEA can cause a lot of damage in the body because it is a precursor to your sex hormones. Therefore, low DHEA means low testosterone and low estrogen.

DHEA is what turns into those hormones.

If you’re a man and run out of testosterone, it’s likely because you have run low on DHEA (the precursor). Low testosterone causes you to feel weak, tired, apathetic, uninterested. It causes a loss in bone mass, meaning higher risk of fractures and broken bones if you trip! The medical term for men is andropause and menopause for women.

Also, you may gain some belly weight, and lose muscle mass. Again, this happens to both men and women actually, just look at a picture of yourself at 35 and a picture at 55 and you’ll see the difference.

DHEA forms estrogen, so a post-menopausal woman (who would have reduced estrogen) may experience hot flashes, anxiety, weight gain, sadness, depression, fatigue and lack of motivation.

Low DHEA might be the result of your medication, and restoring it would be easy, so long as you go slow and start with low doses. Remember, DHEA is sold overthe-counter. Taking it is solely up to you, and your practitioners. The dose is not one-size fits all. If you accidentally take too much DHEA, it could increase risk of hormone-driven cancers and may exacerbate psychiatric problems (mania) so I’m not able to advise you on how much DHEA to take, what form or what type.

COLTS NECK – Colts Neck High School’s Navy Junior ROTC Unit has earned recognition as the “Most Outstanding Unit” in the United States for the 2018-2019 school year. This award recognizes Colts Neck as the top unit in the country, a designation they earned for their outstanding scores in their annual military inspection, school support, and countless hours of community service.

In addition, Colts Neck was selected as the NJROTC Area 4 “Most Outstanding NJROTC Unit” for the third time.

The award-winning unit is 191 members strong. This year the unit completed 10,309 hours of services to communities throughout the Freehold Regional High School District. That equates to 55 community service hours per cadet.

In addition, many of the cadets excelled at their academic studies, receiving distinguished awards and scholarship offerings. The group’s extracurricular teams have also shined this school year while competing at the national level. At the 2019 Navy National Academic, Athletic, and Drill Championship in Pensacola, Florida in April, Colts Neck’s NJROTC finished 11th overall with a first place in athletics. At the Navy JROTC Orienteering National Championship in Los Angeles, California in February, Colts Neck finished 5th in the nation.

“We are very proud of our cadets and our instr uctors, this achievement is the culmination of years of hard work, sacrifice and a commitment to serve the community. Our cadets can take pride in the fact that their countless hours of community service, the 7:00 am training sessions, and the time spent at competitions have allowed them to be recognized as the best in the country,” Principal

Brian Donahue said.

Superintendent of Schools Charles Sampson said, “The recognition of the Colts Neck High School Navy Junior ROTC as the number one program in the nation is a culmination of years of tremendous work by our faculty, student, and parent communities. These young men and women embody service, academic excellence, and integrity. We are incredibly proud of all of their accomplishments.”

The Freehold Regional High School District’s Navy Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps Magnet Program is a four-year leadership and character development program housed at Colts Neck High School. The mission of the NJROTC Magnet Program is to instill in students the values of citizenship, service to the United States, personal responsibility, and a sense of accomplishment. The hallmarks of our unit are the values of citizenship and service to the community upon which students individually build a foundation of trust and leadership. The NJROTC Instructors build cadets’ individual self-confidence and leadership abilities to enable them to succeed and excel, individually and collectively.

Colts Neck cadets achieve their educational objectives by working within the framework of a military-style organization that offers them opportunities for travel to interesting destinations, as well as participation in unique extracurricular activities and numerous community service events. Individual cadets are encouraged to seek and attain promotions to military ranks that will enable them to achieve the levels of individual responsibilities they desire.

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

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Beautify your surroundings in the upcoming week. You could have some great decorating ideas or use a creative touch to rearrange things in a more appealing and efficient manner. Whatever you envision you can achieve.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Food prepared with care is always better than instant.

In the week to come you may expect instant gratification of some of your desires. You might appreciate whatever you get more though, if you take time to savor the process.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Words are like water and are often better when filtered.

You could be so enthused about something or someone that you say whatever pops into your head. In the upcoming week it would be wise to be more mindful and discreet.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): It may be difficult to put email or texts into context. You may need to adapt to a variety of responses to avoid misunderstandings. In the week ahead everyone might be a happy-go-lucky mood except for your partner who is focused on getting ahead.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Your goals and objectives can become supersized in the upcoming week. You may see unlimited opportunities in every encounter. At the same time, you will easily be able to compartmentalize your job and other responsibilities to keep it all in balance.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You might suffer from news fatigue. Take a break from depressing headlines and scandal-ridden newsfeeds in the week to come. Instead, fill your

mind with uplifting and inspiring material that deepens your inner peace.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In the week ahead, a down-to-earth and highly specific approach works best to counteract sweeping statements and broad generalizations. A partner could be romantic but fickle, so enjoy but keep your eyes open for yellow or red flags.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Dig deep and use your visualization abilities to manifest financial success. It could be difficult to curtail expenditures because your attitude might be that bigger is better.

Close companions could act in surprising ways.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): As the week unfolds you may experience exhilaration or an epiphany. Even in the best of times, though, you still need to keep up with the maintenance and mundane tasks of daily life. Routine chores help keep you well-grounded.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Someone might not take you seriously in the week ahead.

Your strategies and agendas may gain little traction and your attempts to exert control over a situation might fall flat for now. Be patient, all things in time.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Overcome adversity by having faith in a positive outcome.

You and a partner could frustrate one another in the upcoming week since one of you acts as the brakes and the other one has a foot on the gas pedal.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): This may be a good week to study chaos theory. Although there may be mix-ups and confusion somehow you will emerge into a better place. Your sensitivity and sympathetic concern for others can be overdone.

Wolfgang Puck’s Kitchen

Dessert For Dad

By Wolfgang Puck With four sons ranging in age from 12 1/2 to 30, I always look forward to Father’s Day. And even though I often enjoy preparing food at home for my boys and my wife Gelila, I’m happy to say that all of my offspring enjoy cooking themselves - especially my second son, Byron, who completed a culinary degree and has joined the restaurant world.

So, chances are that on Father’s Day I’ll be reaping the benefits that so many dads enjoy: being treated to a meal that my kids cook. I hope if you’re a dad yourself, or are planning a special day for your father or husband, that cooking will figure into your family’s plans too.

Often, and traditionally, there’s some sort of backyard barbecuing, a natural with grilling season just started. Of course, by default, Dad usually becomes the one who has to mastermind the Father’s Day cookout, since the outdoor grill is traditionally thought of as his responsibility. (Of course, there are also many women who love to grill!)

But I’d like to suggest a different sort of cooking activity this year; one that doesn’t require building a fire or Dad getting smoke in his eyes. Instead, how about staying in the kitchen, preheating the oven and baking a pie?

It’s hard to find a dad who doesn’t enjoy a slice of homemade pie, especially when it’s one featuring the best produce of the season. At this time of year, that usually means strawberries.

Most of the strawberry pies you see, though, are of the fresh, cold variety: a prebaked pie shell filled with whole glazed berries and topped with whipped cream. There’s nothing wrong with that, of course, except it’s called a pie primarily because a pastry shell is its serving vehicle.

So instead, why not bake a pie that’s filled with bubbling hot berries?

One reason you don’t see many strawberry pies with a baked filling is that the berries on their own break down quickly and reduce to something resembling strawberry jam. I prefer doing what my mother and grandmother did: combining the strawberries with chunks of rhubarb.

Rhubarb is a reddish stalk resembling celery in shape, but it has a wonderfully tart taste. When sweetened with some sugar, the flavor harmonizes beautifully with the strawberries and gives the finished pie filling wonderful body. In fact, in years past, some cooks referred to rhubarb as “pie plant.” You can find fresh rhubarb in most well-stocked markets. (Just be sure to trim off all traces of the leaves, which contain toxic compounds.)

May you enjoy this pie on Father’s Day with your family, as I hope to do with mine. Thank you, Cameron, Byron, Oliver and Alexander!

RHUBARB-STRAWBERRY PIE Make 2 pies 1 recipe Pie Dough (recipe follows), or 2 rounds frozen ready-to-use pie dough BROWN SUGAR CRUMBLE WITH OATS AND ALMONDS: 1 pound (500 g) unsalted butter, cut into even cubes and chilled 1 1/2 cups (375 mL) whole-wheat flour 1 1/2 cups (375 mL) all-purpose flour 1 1/4 cups (310 mL) packed dark brown sugar 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 1/2 cups (375 mL) old-fashioned rolled oats 1 cup (250 mL) sliced almonds RHUBARB-STRAWBERRY PIE FILLING: 6 cups (1.5 L) washed, trimmed, and chopped rhubarb stalks, cut into 1-inch (2.5 cm) pieces 2 cups (500 mL) strawberries, stemmed, left whole if small, halved or quartered if large

1 1/2 cups (375 mL) granulated sugar 5 tablespoons plus L teaspoon cornstarch 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt Grated zest of 1/2 lemon Juice of 1/2 lemon Prepare the pie dough in advance.

When ready to make the pies, preheat the oven to 350 F (180 C). Meanwhile, on a lightly floured work surface, roll out the two discs of dough to circles large enough to fill the bottom and sides and slightly overlap the rim of two 9-inch (22.5-cm) deep-dish pie plates.

Loosely roll up each circle around the rolling pin and then drape and unroll it over a pie plate; gently press into each plate and trim even with the rim. Flute the edges with your thumb and forefinger.

Place foil, parchment paper, or paper coffee filters over the raw dough and fill with pie weights, uncooked rice or dried beans. Bake for 10 minutes; then, carefully lift out the paper and weights and bake until light golden, about 10 minutes longer. Remove from the oven and leave the oven on.

While the shells are baking, make the crumble. In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, combine the flours, brown sugar, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon. Mix on medium speed. Add the chilled butter, and continue mixing until it forms crumbs.

Add the oats and almonds, and continue until the mixture looks like granola. Spread the mixture on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Bake, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Set aside to cool.

For the filling, whisk together the sugar and cornstarch in a mixing bowl. Add the rhubarb, berries, salt, lemon zest and juice, and stir until evenly coated. Transfer to 1 or 2 large nonreactive skillets and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the fruit begins giving up its juices.

Raise the heat to medium-high and continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the mixture reaches a boil and the liquid starts thickening. Remove from the heat and ladle directly into the prebaked pie shells. Do not overfill. Cool and refrigerate any extra filling to serve as a cold compote.

Sprinkle the crumble over the pies, place on a baking sheet, and transfer to the oven. Bake until the crumble and the edges of the pastry are deep golden brown and the filling is thick and bubbling, about 45 minutes. If the rim appears to be browning too quickly, cover carefully with pie shields or strips of heavy-duty aluminum foil.

When the pies are done, remove from the oven to wire racks. Serve warm or at room temperature, with vanilla ice cream or lightly whipped creme fraiche.

PIE DOUGH Makes enough for 2 single-crust 9-inch (22.5-cm) pies 4 1/2 cups (1.125 kg) all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon granulated sugar 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1 pound (500 g) unsalted butter, cut into even cubes and chilled 1/2 cup (125 mL) plus 2 tablespoons ice-cold water 1 teaspoon Champagne vinegar In the bowl of a stand mixer or in a mixing bowl, stir together the flour, sugar and salt. Set aside.

Put all the dry ingredients into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the stainless-steel blade. Pulse to combine. Add the butter, and pulse until the mixture is broken up to the size of peas.

Mix the water and vinegar together, and add the mixture through the feed tube of the food processor. Immediately begin pulsing on and off until the mixture that forms begins to climb the side of the bowl.

Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and continue kneading gently by hand until a smooth dough forms. Cut the dough in half, pat it into two even discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours.
