By Jennifer Peacock LAKEHURST – Eight weeks. That’s the time that passed between Maryanne Capasso taking the Registered Municipal Clerk exam and finding out the results over the long Memorial Day weekend.

She passed. She’s official.

The Lakehurst Borough Council passed a resolution June 6 appointing her as municipal clerk. Almost as an afterthought, when the council meeting adjourned, a resident of-

fered a hearty congrats to which the governing body and sparse audience offered applause.

After all, Capasso has been a fixture at council meetings for some time, and going solo since former clerk Bernadette Dugan retired after 30 years back in December. Dugan poured her years of experience onto Capasso before leaving, and she’s been acting clerk since the new year.

Municipal clerks are much more than simply (Clerk - See Page 8)

Overwhelmed With News Of Animal Abuse? Here’s How To Help

By Chris Lundy and Kimberly Bosco JERSEY SHORE – It seems that there is a lot of bad news lately about suffering animals.

Geese being attacked. A service dog-in-training killed. A cat shot with a crossbow. The other geese being attacked.

The natural instinct when reading these articles

is outrage. How could someone do such a thing?

Who is really the animal here?

If you’re saddened or angered by news like this – and you should be – know that there are ways to help animals locally.

There are several animal shelters that need (Animal - See Page 5)

Everyone pulled together to achieve “bronze” status with Sustainable Jersey, a “nonprofit organization that provides tools, training and financial incentives to support communities as they pursue sustainability programs,” according to its website.

To achieve that status, Whiting School had to establish a “green team,” and complete a number of steps outlined by Sustainable Jersey. (Schools and municipalities can work toward achieving silver and gold sta-

“Whiting Elementary is part of that select group among state public schools that shine through as a leader in sustainability education and sustainable practices and teaching your kids and your students to be ready for the future, so you have so much to be proud of here,” McCall said.

Donald Webster Jr., past Manchester Board of Education president and New Jersey School Boards Association Immediate Past President, saw the need four years ago for schools to join the sustainability movement.

The schools not only benefit from going green, they attract “green” from major funders who provide money for projects like the outdoor classroom. “[Sustainability] is a topic that’s certainly timely and very important for the next generation, our children,” Webster said. As such, he’s serving as a trustee for Sustainable Jersey. “As I travel around the state and see all the projects that have been undertaken by the schools, I’m confident that our next generation will step up to the challenges that we face as a society.”

Senior Citizens Club Movie Night

W HITI NG – T he Senior Citizens Club of Crestwood Village IV will be showing the movie “SECOND ACT” on June 28.

Whiting School is nestled in an ecosystem unique to New Jersey: The Pine Barrens, the reserve that blankets seven counties, 56 municipalities and 1.1 million acres, 22 percent of the entire state. Second-grade teacher Baranyay and fourth-grade teacher Titmas joined Swift and Superintendent David Trethaway in saying that besides the obvious benefits of students being outdoors, the location lends itself to a live study of the environment and fragile ecosystems.

“It allows them to get out of the classroom and get their hands on things. It gives students the appreciation for what’s going on around them,” Trethaway said of the outdoor classroom.

Whiting is just one of nearly 900 schools participating in Sustainable Jersey for Schools, Program Director Heather McCall said. Out of those, only 242 are bronze or silver certified. The program has given out $1.8 million in grants to participating schools.

Our chef will be making a grilled chicken dinner with all the trimmings.

Being part of the Sustainable Jersey program also opened up the school for grants, many of them funded by companies like PSE&G. The school’s first attempt to secure a grant was rejected, but finally Whiting School secured a $10,000 grant from the energy giant to build the outdoor classroom.

Continued From Page 1 donations and volunteers. They would welcome help from people who want to make the world better for animals in their area.

Calling All Cats Rescues, in Jackson, always needs kitten and cat chow, and cleaning supplies. They are currently well stocked with linens, said Sara Cameron, president and founder. They have an Amazon wish list that is pinned to the top of their Facebook page.

They are also looking for volunteers and foster families.

There was one situation recently where a hurt animal was helped by this organization.

A feral cat, who might be a senior, was found on the side of Route 571, struck by a car.

Fortunately, it was spotted by a volunteer for the organization. She thought she was dead until she saw movement.

The cat was brought to a vet, where she was given pain medication, anti-biotics, and an x-ray that revealed her back was broken.

Doctors told her the humane thing would be to put her down.

“I wasn’t ready,” Cameron said. “If I put her down, I can’t reverse that.”

The cat was eating, drinking, and grooming herself. It didn’t look like a cat that had given up. The cat wasn’t ready to go, either.

Now, the cat is named Phoenix, and she lives at the sanctuary. She probably will spend the rest of her years here, since her medical care is more than what most people are able to do (which includes acupuncture). She was fitted for a harness that has wheels on it, and she

The Manchester Times, June 15, 2019, Page 5 pulls herself along with her front paws. She has grown accustomed to the shelter life, as opposed to being a stray, and has become affectionate.

“Every day she just keeps getting stronger and stronger,” she said.

At the Jersey Shore Animal Center in Brick, they are always in need of cat food, blankets, towels, sheets, and cleaning products, said Jaime Dunning, project director. Donations can be dropped off seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., although the adoption center is only open from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesdays through Sundays.

Volunteers have to be 16 or older, and have to apply, she said.

Monetary donations can be given through the site: jerseyshoreanimalcenter.org.

The Toms River Animal Shelter is also looking for cat and kitten food, and particularly kitten formula. They are asking for KMR ready-made cans, powder, and Miracle Nipples, as well as experienced bottle feeders, 18 and older.

Serving locations in both Ocean and Monmouth Counties is Rescue Ridge Adoption. Rescue Ridge is always looking for volunteers to walk the dogs, socialize with the dogs and cats, as well as transport animals to adoption events and/or veterinary appointments.

“We can use people to help us at events, especially strong people who can help carry tents. We need people who can man the tables we need people who can talk to the public about Rescue Ridge,” stated Joan Parmese, Director of Operations at Rescue Ridge

A volunteer application can be found at rescueridge.com. You must be 19 or older to volunteer.

If volunteering isn’t your thing, there are many other ways to help out. You can simply donate at rescueridge.com, or you can partake in their brick campaign. For $25, you can “honor your pet, a friend’s pet or even just a friend.”

If you wish to donate more than just money, you can visit Rescue Ridge’s site at rescueridge.com/about to view their Amazon wish list.

“If it is toys, we don’t normally take rope toys or anything too little since we deal mostly with larger animals. We do not accept open bags of food just for safety reasons and we like to keep our animals on a consistent diet,” stated Parmese. “Treats should only be made in America and probably should not be treated with irradiation” If you are out and about, you can text 732546-8805 to see what is needed at that time.

In southern Ocean County you will find the Ocean County Animal Shelter’s Manahawkin location as well as their partner organization, the Friends of the Southern Ocean County Animal Shelter (FOSOCAS).

The organization is always looking for volunteers that can get the dogs out for a bit of exercise. “(Dog walker) orientations are held at the shelter on the first Saturday and the third Sunday of each month. Must be 21 years of age and have enough strength and balance to get the dogs in/out of their kennels and walk for extended period of time,” stated the Friends’ website.

FREE ESTIMATES

Replacements & New Install of Heating & Air Conditioning Units

To become a dog walker, email dogwalkers@fosocas.org.

FOSOCAS also needs individuals who are willing to foster cats or dogs, be “bottle babies” who bottle feed the very young kittens, or volunteer at their adoption centers.

More information on volunteer opportunities can be found at fosocas.org/programs.

And of course, you can always provide a monetary donation online at fosocas.org/ product/donation/ or in one of the FOSOCAS’ coin boxes.

“The donations we receive are used to purchase shelter equipment and provide supplementary medical/veterinary care to ensure high standards for the care and housing of pets,” stated their site.

Coin boxes can be found all over various locations in southern Ocean County. Make a difference with your spare change!

In addition to the traditional methods of donating time or money, Ocean County SPCA is taking advantage of the online shopping world to raise funds for their Save A Rescue animal charity. You can donate 0.5 percent of your online purchase to Save A Rescue when shopping on Amazon Smile by choosing them as your designated charity.

Lastly, the Associated Humane Societies of New Jersey has locations in Forked River in Ocean County and Tinton Falls in Monmouth County. On their website, you can find a wish list full of items needed at all their shelter locations.

The list includes dog and cat food, kitten and puppy food, nursing bottles, towels, wash cloths, toys, blankets, sheets, litter, (Animal - See Page 8)

Spotlight On Government Correspondence & Commentary From Your Local, County, State & Federal Officials

Smith Honored For His Bipartisan 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 recog-

nized 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 we combat anti-Semitism every time and

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,

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 Legacy Award was created

particularly 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.

T he co - chai rs of t he 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 Fund Nature-Based Shoreline Protection

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senators Bob Menendez and Cory Booker joined six other colleagues in introducing the Living Shorelines Act, a piece of legislation that would create a new grant program for nature-based shoreline protection projects known as living shorelines.

As sea-level rise and coastal storms continue to threaten thousands of coastal communities and economies, investing in living shorelines can help reduce risk from floods and storms and increase the resiliency of our coasts.

Living shorelines are a type of green infrastructure that protect and stabilize coastal edges by using natural materials such as plants, sand, shell, or rock. Unlike a concrete seawall or other artificial structure, which impedes the growth of plants and animals, living shore-

lines can grow over time, allowing them to adapt to changing conditions. Using green and natural infrastructure, communities can create a buffer that mitigates the impacts of shoreline flooding by reducing wave energy and decreasing erosion. Green infrastructure is cost-effective and can also provide benefits such as improved local water quality and ecology.

“As climate change continues to threaten our environment, we must ensure that our shore communities are prepared in the face of potentially devastating storms that hit our region,” said Sen. Menendez. “After Superstorm Sandy wreaked havoc on our state, I fought hard for federal funding to make our communities stronger and more resilient. This bill will continue aiding New Jersey’s shore towns in helping protect our

families, environment and economy.”

“New Jersey communities are increasingly threatened by the effects of sea level rise and extreme weather events caused by climate change,” said Sen. Booker. “As we saw in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, investments in natural infrastructure, such as living shorelines, can mitigate f looding, improve public safety, and provide a significant return on investment.”

The Living Shorelines Act will: • Establish a grant program to help states, towns, and NGOs implement climate resilient living shoreline projects and encourage the use of natural materials in the protection of coastal communities; • Direct NOAA to develop criteria to select grantees based on the potential of the

project to protect the community, and the ecological benefits of the project, among other things; • Prioritize areas that have received a Stafford Act disaster declaration or areas that have a documented history of coastal inundation or erosion; and

• Authorize $50 million a year for these grants.

Senators Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), Chris Murphy (D-Conn.), Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), Ron Wyden (D-Ore.), and Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.) are also cosponsoring the legislation.

President & Publisher Stewart Swann

Congressman Frank Pallone, Jr. (D-N.J.-06) introduced companion legislation in the House.

Supporters of the Living Shorelines Act include The National Wildlife Federation, the Nature Conservancy, and the American Society of Landscape Architects.

Remembering Your Story: Creating Your Own Spiritual Autobiography

WHITING – The Whiting United Methodist Church will be leading a book study beginning Wednesday July 2 from 1 – 2:30 p.m. that will run every Wednesday for five weeks.

The book we will be reading is “Remembering your Story” by Richard Lyon Morgan.

The book will be available for purchase after June 12 at a cost of $10 and can be obtained by contacting the church office at 732-3506878 from Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Remembering Your Story invites readers to connect their faith stories with others and with

God’s story as revealed in scripture. Morgan guides readers to deeper memories of God’s presence in all portions of their lives. Individuals will find this book offers them blessings as they discover God’s working throughout their journey. It intentionally focuses on faith stories.

The church is located at 55 Lacey Road across from Crestwood Manor. You don’t need to be a member of our congregation to attend; all are welcome. Please join us as we remember the past and realize that God has Blessed us throughout our journey in life.

Celtic Even Song

WHITING – The Whiting community is invited to join us at Whiting United Methodist Church on Wednesday evening, July 10, for an evening liturgy with a light supper. This event is free and open to all in the community.

A free will offering will be taken. We will be serving the body with a light supper and the mind and soul with a short evening liturgy. We are located at 55 Lacey Road and our evening of fellowship will begin at 5pm.

“Worship, at its best, is not a prescription to

be followed, but a tapestry for God in which all are continually engaged. What we say and sing is a gift to God; and God deserves more than an unchanging diet of prayer.”

Please join us as we spend an evening together, breaking bread and worshiping in our CLC. We look forward to having you with us.

You can call the church office at 732-350-6878 Monday to Thursday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. if you have any questions or need directions to our church.

Guests were greeted at the door by fifth grade tour guides and provided a small token of appreciation for attending the event. The guests were invited to sit in on various classroom activities, mingle with the students, visit the Student Art Show, and then relax at a luncheon which was provided by the Lakehurst Education Association. Throughout the day, –Photo courtesy Lakehurst Elementary School teachers mingled with the seniors and shared ideas and reminisced about great spending time with the students during their visit. The day was a true success inside their school days.

Many of the seniors commented that it was the Lakehurst Elementary School.

Pride “Protests” Light Up Ocean County 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.

Cars honked in solidarity and cheered through 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.

–Photo by Kimberly Bosco A counter-protest supporting LGBTQ individuals brought out more people. 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.”

Many of these supporters made the decision to come out to the protest after seeing Levin’s f lyer, 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: (Pride - See Page 17)

jerseyshoreonline.com

Pride:

Continued From Page 16 “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

The Manchester Times, June 15, 2019, Page 17 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-“gay-teen” (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.”

And yes, she had to know all that for her exam.

Capasso moved to Lakehurst with her family as a young child, and except for a brief time after getting married, has lived in the borough ever since. She worked as a

paraprofessional in Lakehurst Elementary School for 11 years while her children attended there. She then worked part time for the municipal alliance before joining the municipal clerk’s office in 2013.

Three years later, the then-deputy clerk moved into the treasurer spot where she felt more at home. Capasso seamlessly took on the deputy clerk duties, and when Dugan started considering retirement, shadowed her mentor to eventually fill that spot.

“She was friendly with everybody,” Capasso said of her predecessor, who still stops by twice a week to say hello and have lunch. “You just try your best. And you greet everybody with a smile. That’s what she did.”

Capasso moved back to the borough as a young mom to be closer to family. But she stayed for other reasons.

“Here, you know everybody. It’s a nice, quiet town,” Capasso said.

Fire Safety For Those With Hearing Loss

There are 11 million deaf or hard of hearing Americans who cannot rely on traditional sound-oriented smoke detectors and therefore, are at a disadvantage. Decreased hearing can limit a person’s ability to take quick action and escape during a fire emergency. Those with hearing loss need to take extra precautions to protect themselves from the hazards of home fire. This includes being aware of the availability of f lashing and/or vibrating smoke alarms and having an effective escape plan in place.

Have the proper alerting system.

Smoke detectors are not doing their job if you cannot hear them. Consider the following statistics: 20 percent of home fires occur between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m., yet these fires account for more than half of all home fire deaths. Something to keep in mind: most smoke detectors produce a relatively high frequency (3000 kHz) sound. Recent studies have revealed that this frequency is not particularly effective in waking up children, heavy sleepers, those taking sleeping pills or other medication and those who have had too much to drin k.

In addition, high frequency alarms are almost completely ineffective in alerting people with high frequency hearing loss, accounting for about 90 percent of people with hearing loss and all deaf people. Install a f lashing or vibrating smoke alarm on every level of your home. Test all

smoke alarms monthly and change the batteries at least once a year.

People with hear ing loss are at greater risk from night time f ires because their hearing instr uments are typically out of their ears when sleeping. Not all alerting devices meet every need but some do come close.

The ideal device would not only sound an alarm but also f lash a light and vibrate the bed. This would alert the three most important senses simultaneously. There are a great number of smoke detectors designed specifically for those with a hearing impairment.

Light-tone HL bedside fire alarm and clock alerts you by sounding a loud low frequency and vibrating the bed.

The combination of the low frequency alarm sounding and the bed shaking wakes even heavy sleepers. Silent call makes great aler ting systems that work with more than just smoke detectors.

Plan you escape: An important tip is not to isolate yourself. Inform family members, the building manager or a neighbor of your fire safety plan and practice it with them. Contact you local fire department on a non-emergency phone number and explain your special needs. They can help with your escape plan, perform a home inspection and offer suggestions about smoke alar m placement. They can also keep your information on file.

For more infor mation about f ire safety, visit www.usfa.fema.gov.

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.

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

www.funonwheelstours.com • 609.857.6000 PO Box 211 • Lanoka Harbor, NJ 08734

Robert C. Shea Esq.

of insurance or 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.

Experts: These Are The Barriers To Solving Opioid Crisis

By Chris Lundy TOMS RIVER – A Town Hall-style meeting of people on the front lines of the opioid epidemic was held recently. The goal: to identify the roadblocks to solving the crisis.

The meeting was held at the Toms River branch of the Ocean County library, hosted

by Congressman Andy Kim (D-3rd). He said addiction has been mentioned at every town hall he’s hosted, but he’s just not seeing the same level of urgency in Washington, D.C. According to state figures, there were 3,118 deaths suspected of overdose in 2018. As of June 3, the figure for 2019 is 871. (The state uses the term “suspected” deaths because until the lab tests confirm, the victim is only suspected of dying from an overdose.)

But these are just statistics, and they hide the personal impact that drugs have. That’s why there were several people at the town hall who told their story.

Lisa Cook lost her 25-year-old daughter, Danielle, last year. Danielle was the type of person who once pulled over when she saw an elderly couple having trouble, and took time out to help them.

She didn’t know that a boyfriend had laced marijuana with harder drugs, and she became an addict, Cook said.

There were many times that Danielle tried to get better but the system failed her: Insurance wouldn’t pay for more than 14 days during one rehab stint; a court officer told her she’d never be clean; and patient privacy laws kept her parents in the dark.

It was key points like this that the experts needed to know in order to forge policies and change how people address the epidemic. Some of the suggestions are as follows: Easier access to treatment. Several of the speakers said this was crucial. Heather Shapter, with the New Jersey Organizing Project, said someone should be able to Google addiction treatment and find something right away. “When an addict has a moment of clarity,” that’s when you have to treat them. Pamela Capaci, CEO of Hope Sheds Light, said you are asking a lot of someone dealing with addiction to navigate multiple systems of care. It should be streamlined.

Dr. Samir Jani, of Garden State Medical Center, said that he can view a patient’s

prescriptions from any provider in the state, and even some other states. However, the network doesn’t cover the entire country, and patients can still get prescription painkillers from certain states and keep it secret in New Jersey. He wants to see a more comprehensive, country-wide network.

Kimberly Reilly, Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Coordinator for the Ocean County Health Department said that when someone dies of an overdose, certain statistics like age and gender are recorded. However, that doesn’t tell the story. That doesn’t explain why they went down the path they did. If that can be learned, then we wouldn’t have to wait for someone to hit rock bottom before they can be helped. “There’s a story behind someone who has died of an overdose,” she said. “Tell me what worked, and what didn’t work.” She said this information would help drive policy and inform grant writing.

Pamela Capaci, CEO of Hope Sheds Light, said that people with addiction have to navigate a complicated system to just to get help.

The system is also short-sighted, looking to help people in the immediate term when addiction is really a long-term issue.

Prosecutor Bradley Billhimer said that the dangers of drugs have to be discussed to even younger kids than what is being done now. They have to be taught how to make good choices and how to rebound from bad ones. Fentanyl amounted to 10 percent of overdose labwork in 2014, but that is up to 70 percent in 2018. “People have to know they’re playing Russian roulette.”

Eric McIntire, vice president of the RWJBarnabas Health Institute for Prevention and Recovery, said that anyone revived from an overdose is met with an addiction counselor in the hospital. The counselor is a recovered addict, so they talk the talk and walk the walk. There’s only a curtain between beds sometimes, and the person on the other side will ask for help with their addiction as well. “Why does someone have to almost die to get help?” he asked. What’s needed is the human connection. People need access to recovery specialists before they are hospitalized, who can guide them to the next step.

Crisis:

Continued From Page 25 Heather Shapter, with the New Jersey Organizing Project, said a car crash made her addicted to prescription painkillers, which led to heroin. Purdue Pharmaceutical marketed oxycontin, downplaying its addictive properties. The state is currently suing the Sackler family who allegedly had a lot to do with that, but Shapter said they should be accountable in other ways, including a windfall tax. She described the first hand problems she had with trying to get clean, including driving 75 minutes each way to find a doctor since every local one was full.

Other challenges discussed included: Insurance companies shouldn’t be able to dictate treatment.

Transitional housing. There is a lack of places to put people in recovery.

Lower the stigma related to substance abuse disorder.

Start talking the language of recovery, and making goals.

Congressman Kim said these suggestions would be collected and discussed to see if they can be addressed legislatively.

Around The Jersey Shore Enter The Pinelands Photo Contest, Win Over $2,500 In Cash Prizes

The Pinelands Preservation Alliance and a volunteer committee composed of professional and amateur photographers will host their annual juried photography exhibit focused on the Pinelands National Reserve.

The exhibit will hang in PPA’s newly renovated barn at its headquarters in Southampton from November 10, 2019 to December 14, 2019. The deadline for submissions is September 15, 2019. An opening reception will be held November 9 from 2 to 4 p.m.

This year we celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Pinelands Protection Act, the landmark state legislation that established the framework for Pinelands protection that we know today. We also celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Pinelands Preservation Alliance, established in July 1989 to protect the natural and historic resources of New Jersey’s Pinelands National Reserve.

Black and white and color images taken within the boundaries of the National Reserve depicting its landscape, flora, wildlife, communities and people will be eligible for over $2,500 in cash awards. Photographers of all skill levels are welcome to apply – all submissions will be digitally displayed at the opening reception and at the exhibit.

The deadline for submissions is September 15, 2019. Registration information is available at PinelandsPhotoExhibit.org.

This year we place special emphasis on expanding student participation. Sight is our most powerful sense and images can appeal to emotion without any written word needed. In April, students and teachers from Shawnee, Cherokee, Lenape and Rancocas Valley Regional High Schools participated in a focus group meeting on the topics of photography, the Pinelands and participation in this year’s exhibit. In May, 20 students took a photography walk at the Black Run Preserve in Evesham led by award-winning photographer Richard Lewis. We are very excited to see how these

young people capture and memorialize their experiences, whether it is with a digital camera or a smart phone.

Photographers are welcome to submit up to three images for $30 and $5 for each additional image up to a total of six total submissions. Student (18 years of age and under) entries are $10 for three images and $5 for each additional image up to a total of six.

This year’s Exhibit Judge is Richard Lewis, photographer and educator.

“My love for photography started in 1973 when I met my wife and her 35mm camera.

Ever since then I’ve been involved with photography both as a fine art and professional photographer. My mother owned an art gallery in New Hope, Pennsylvania in the 1960’s and 70’s so my earliest exposure to art came from painters,” said Lewis. “My biggest influences are the great American landscape painters, especially the Hudson River School and Andrew Wyeth. As a result, I call my photographic style “Painting with a Camera” which involves equal amounts of time in both creating and editing photographs. While I love to photograph the American landscape, no place is more special to me than the New Jersey Pinelands.

The unique beauty hidden in these pine trees and tea colored water is a treasure and a landscape that I especially love to explore, photograph and share.”

Learn more about Lewis and view his work at richardlewisphotography.com.

Important dates: Submission Deadline: September 15, 2019 Gallery exhibition: November 10, 2019 to December 14, 2019 Opening Reception: November 9, 2019 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. - Awards will be announced at the reception For more information or questions please contact: Steve Sebastian, 609-859-8860 ext.

Around The Jersey Shore Health Department Now Offering Free Breastfeeding Class

By Kimberly Bosco TOMS RIVER – Calling all new and expecting mothers! The Ocean County Health Department wants to help you on your breastfeeding journey with “Nursing Your Newborn.” Learn the basics of breastfeeding in this free class, held every third Wednesday of the month at the Southern Ocean County Medical Center, 7-9 p.m.

“The Ocean County Health Department is proud to be teaming up with Southern Ocean Medical Center by offering this free, 2 hour class, and preparing mothers with the basics to begin her breastfeeding journey,” said Daniel E. Regenye, Ocean County Health Department Public Health Coordinator.

The class will discuss the following: • How breastfeeding works • Establishing a good milk supply • How to get your baby to latch • How to know if your baby is getting enough milk • Positions for breastfeeding • When and where to get support

• How to choose a breast pump • Returning to work and maintaining your milk supply • Common challenges, and more “We are very excited about this program and the chance to help remove obstacles to obtaining high-level, evidence-based lactation support in the county,” said Patricia High, Ocean County Health Department Assistant Public Health Coordinator. “Allow the OCHD professionals to help give you the best instruction and guide you through the nursing process because the more education you get now the better equipped you’ll be at home with your baby.”

This class is free, but registration is required.

To register, call 1-800-560-9990 to reserve a spot for you and one support person.

“You can certainly learn about breastfeeding on the internet or from other materials, but nothing is better than the information, interaction and hands-on lessons you’ll receive from this class,” said Regenye.

NO ENTRANCE FEE! –Photo courtesy EAA

By Kimberly Bosco WALL – Monmouth County saw 39 new young aviators take their first f light 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 f light and teach them all they want to know about the air-

planes. 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 f light, 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.

PROFESSIONAL PROFILE Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists, PC: Treating Everything Below The Knee

By Michael Vandenberg Dr. Scott Amoss, DPM, CWS is a lot more than a “foot doctor,” as people often mistake podiatrists for. In reality, “we provide comprehensive lower extremity care,” he said. So yes, if your foot hurts, Dr. Amoss will be happy to help.

However, that barely scratches the surface of all the conditions he sees and the treatments he provides.

Dr. Amoss (pronounced like “famous Amoss”) grew up in nearby Ocean Township and has been connected to the Jersey Shore community and greater New Jersey area his entire life. Originally, he earned his Bachelor’s degree in chemistry at Rutgers and spent a few years in the chemical industry. However, that feeling of wanting to make a difference in people’s lives that drives all physicians caught hold of Dr. Amoss. He liked podiatry in particular because of its ability to help people really quickly.

“You can immediately have a positive impact on someone’s life. They come in pain, and can leave virtually pain free.” Scott Amoss became Doctor Scott Amoss when he graduated fourth in his class with numerous honors from the New York College of Podiatric Medicine in 2000. He then completed a two year residency focusing on orthopedic, vascular, plastic, and reconstructive surgery, in

addition to training in internal and emergency medicine, dermatology, and radiology.

After that, Dr. Amoss knew it was time to go out on his own, so he opened Advanced Foot & Ankle Specialists in Whiting.

17 years later, the practice is going strong and recently opened a new location in Toms River to be closer to Community Medical Center, where he’s a surgeon on staff. Critically, this new foothold also allows him, as a specialist in diabetic foot care, to help the growing diabetic community in the area.

While expanding served a logistically necessary purpose, Advanced Foot & Ankle has never lost its personal touch.

You’ll never just be passed off to whichever doctor is on the clock that day, because Dr. Amoss is proud to be a solo practitioner. “The patients see me and only me,” he said.

“It’s good continuity of care.”

His tight-knit support staff of seven ensures that you get the streamlined care you deserve.

That’s crucial in the field of Podiatry because, after all, things can get serious when it comes to Diabetes and foot complications. Luckily, Dr. Amoss is an Amputation Prevention Specialist as well as a Certified Wound Specialist.

Less serious conditions like hammertoes, ingrown nails, bunions, and athlete’s foot can be treated in the office,

“I’m surgically trained but I only like to per form surgery when all other conservative means have been exhausted.

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!

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.
