By Kimberly Bosco HOWELL – You might not realize that many police officers have two offices. They are always on the move, whether it is patrolling neighborhoods, schools, or responding to calls for service, which is why their second “office” is actually their police vehicle.

Howell Police recently added new “mobile offices” to their fleet, replacing older police vehicles with a set of five 2019 Dodge Chargers.

According to Howell Police Sergeant David Levine, the department was in the process of purchasing five Ford Explorers to be added to

the fleet when the order fell through.

“Ford unexpectedly advised us our order was being pulled and they would not be delivering those units. This occurred several weeks after completing all the necessary paperwork and submitting the purchase order to the Ford dealer-

ship who held the state contract,” Sgt. Levine told Jersey Shore Online.

The department’s purchase order was cut, along with thousands of others nationwide, Levine added.

This news came as a surprise to the department, setting them back (Police - See Page 4)

‘My County’ Poster Contest Winners Announced

By Jennifer Peacock FREEHOLD – The winners of the ‘My County’ poster contest - which showcases what students like best about Monmouth County - were recently honored by county Surrogate Rosemarie D. Peters, Clerk Christine Giordano Hanlon and Sheriff Shaun Golden.

More than 180 posters were submitted from schools across the county.

“After learning about the State of New Jersey in their classroom social studies curriculum, fourth graders from Monmouth County were

able to demonstrate their knowledge of county government in a creative way through this poster contest,” Peters said.

“The fourth graders’ design and content show not only knowledge of county government, but also imagination and originality,” Hanlon said.

“I congratulate all the students who participated in the contest, especially this year’s winners, as they were able to provide insight about how our youth view Monmouth County.”

Winners are: (Poster - See Page 5)

Howell Homeless HELPing Themselves

By Kimberly Bosco HOWELL – Nearly four months after the Destiny’s Bridge homeless community was booted from their encampment on township land, the group is making strides towards helping themselves by helping others.

Through a newly established program called HELP (Homeless, Empowerment, Labor, Program), Destiny’s Bridge is finding a meaningful way to contribute to the community by employing the homeless.

As of March 18, those residing on the homeless encampment at 5998 Route 9 in Howell Township were required to permanently vacate after three years residing on the township’s land.

While they were given a small financial cushion of $4,000 each by the New Jersey Coalition to End Homelessness after vacating, this sum cannot last very long nor can it sustain a consistent rent or mortgage payment.

According to Minister Steve Brigham of Destiny’s Bridge, two of the former camp residents “still have indoor housing, and the others are in one form, or fashion homeless again. They have either joined another homeless encampment in the area, or sleeping in a vehicle.”

HELP is one way that these individuals can create a bit of financial stability for themselves to get back on their feet.

The idea is that members of the community can reach out to HELP for simple services they need done such as moving jobs, towing, lawn maintenance, etc. and these services will be provided and performed by homeless in need of work.

Brigham told Jersey Shore Online that the idea stemmed from a conversation with an old friend and former resident of the Lakewood Tent City. Brigham had the idea and his friend had the acronym: H.E.L.P. The project began as a way of incorporating the homeless into the mailbox design business, crafting unique and individualized mailboxes upon request. This later became a business called First Impression Mailbox Design and Installation, where the homeless assemble craft mailboxes, and help install them.

“I realized there is so much you can do to make a mailbox and post that will reflect the (Homeless - See Page 4)

Police:

Continued From Page 1 several months in time and energy spent “researching and building specs for these vehicles.” After some collaboration with Police Chief Andrew Kudrick, a decision was made to opt for the Dodge Chargers.

The 2019 Dodge Charger package that the department purchased was actually a more cost effective option, saving the department over $1,000 per vehicle. The Ford Explorer Police Interceptor vehicle was priced at $26,826 and the Dodge Charge Police Package was priced at $25,185.74, said Levine.

The total cost of “building” a police vehicle varies due to make and model and equipment, but most often ranges from $50,000 - $60,000, he said. The vehicles are painted to look like a typical police car and then loaded with the necessary equipment.

Howell Police vehicles are pained by Howell-based Atlantic Auto Body and equipped

by Lakewood-based Elite Vehicle Solutions.

Sgt. Levine broke down the cost of building the vehicles once delivered: Adding the black and white paint scheme: $900 - $1,000 per vehicle Graphics: $495 per vehicle Emergency equipment installation (emergency lights, siren, prisoner cages, computer docks and networking, camera systems, and radar unit): approximately $13,000 per vehicle Should a vehicle be built for K9 applications, the price would be more expensive to account for the additional K9 equipment, Levine added.

“There is equipment not provided by the installer which we provide such as the vehicles in-car camera system, Watchguard ($7,500), In car computer ($4,000), electronic ticketing system ($1,200), cellular modem ($1,300) and the Stalker Radar ($3,500) to name a few,” Levine said.

The price comparison between the Ford and Dodge vehicles is not the only difference found in the switch. The Ford Explorers are SUVs (sport utility vehicles) and the Dodge Chargers are sedans.

“The Dodge Charger also has all-wheel drive and handles much different than an SUV,” said Levine.

While the additional police vehicles may be newer and nicer than older ones, the purpose has always been to provide the best possible service to township residents.

“All businesses have a need for some type of tools, equipment or resources in order to provide their customer with a good or service. Police work is no different. We provide a number of services to our community and our officers utilize their patrol cars not only as form of transportation but as roving office,” said Levine. “These vehicles are used in all different weather conditions and are often run for several shifts a day. It’s not uncommon for a patrol vehicle to be used for periods of 18 hours or more straight.”

Due to this, police vehicles endure a lot of wear and tear and can be worn down a lot faster than your average car. When police vehicles reach the end of their lifespan, they get rotated out of patrol use and are repurposed to other police divisions, Levine explained.

Homeless:

Continued From Page 1 personality of the homeowner. It can be stately, or funny, or tell about one’s interest or likes,” said Brigham.

This idea evolved into HELP, and has been expanded to incorporate other fields that the local homeless have talents in, said Brigham.

“One homeless person is an experienced tree worker. He is highly skilled, but ended up in Tent City when he lost his truck, and couldn’t get to work. Another homeless person has a degree in computer programming, and is helping to build our website,” Brigham added.

They have equipment on hand to do tree work, basic lawn maintenance, and they can perform small to medium size moving jobs.

“We also have a vehicle where we can tow almost anything,” he added. The vehicles HELP uses, Chevy Silverado and a mini bus, have been donated over time.

If you or someone you know have a job that needs to be done around the house or at a business, HELP can be reached for a helping hand at 732-364-0340. Offering reasonable prices, Brigham noted that all proceeds will go towards helping the homeless move forward.

You can also call First Impression Mailbox Design and Installation for a unique and individualized mailbox catered to you. And for a limited time for those who purchase and install a mailbox will be given “a complimentary free DVD of the award-winning documentary Destiny’s Bridge, which documents the life, and struggles of the homeless in Tent City,” added Brigham.

“So please think of H.E.L.P. the next time

you need something done around the house, or business. At the same time you will be helping someone that needs a helping hand,” he said.

“Please give me a call at 732-364-0340 to discuss the details of any job you need done.”

In the interest of running HELP as smoothly as possible, Brigham has since had to put a hold on an outreach program that he has been putting on at Lakewood Town Square for nearly two decades for lack of space.

For those who may not need a service done but still wish to help, the program is in need of a table saw for the mailbox business, and an enclosed utility trailer for other job related activities.

Winning posters will be displayed for a month during the year at the Monmouth County Clerk’s Office, 33 Mechanic St. in Freehold.

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY Letters To The Editor

F eAtuReD L etteR Everyone Should Be Able To Vote In Primaries Last month, 7.7 percent of New Jersey voters went to the polls to vote in party primaries that were, for the most part, noncompetitive. That was hailed as an increase from the 3 percent that voted four years ago.

Americans are deeply concerned about our country - just look at the level of volunteering and charitable giving in New Jersey and nationally. We care what happens. So why is voter participation so low? Not apathy. It’s failed political system that lacks transparency, is divisive, controlled by party insiders and overly reliant on campaign contributions.

We represent the 2.4 million independent voters that were locked out of the primaries. There are more voters registered as unaffiliated in NJ than in either of the major political parties. It’s hypocritical to bemoan participation

rates when you exclude 40 percent of the registered voters in the state.

As leaders of New Jersey Independent Voters (Sue Davies) and No Labels New Jersey (Steve Barratt), we are advocating for the New Jersey Democratic and Republican Parties to Open the 2020 Presidential Primaries to all New Jersey independents.

Independents across our state want to participate in the presidential primary process without having to compromise their independence. Our tax dollars pay for these elections and we deserve to be heard. The parties have the opportunity to broaden the conversation and participation in 2020.

It is time for a democracy experiment.

Read The Mueller Report The Mueller Report, issued April 18, 2019, by the Department of Justice consists of 2 Volumes, with a Table of Contents preceding each volume. It is more or less 448 pages in length (an exact count difficult to determine due to varying paginations). Table of Contents for Volume One consists of 5 pages; the TOC for Volume Two consists of 4 pages. Appendixes A, B, C and D run some 53 pages (395-448).

The cover is black, appropriately, because this report signals the demise of our democratic republic. The title coloring is appropriate in that The Mueller Report is rendered in gold, Trump’s favorite decorative choice in his properties.

Reading the report seems boring due to its dry, lawyerly and/or unimaginative recitation of facts implicating Trump and his posse in many illegal activities. It is somewhat frustrating too because of its reluctance to draw definitive legal conclusions as to the president’s guilt.

Most ordinary citizens who read the Report or at least a portion of it will be forced by logic and common sense to the conclusion of Trump’s personal guilt, based simply on the facts enumerated within

Letters To The Editor the Repor t. The reader would so state. Based on anyone anywhere near the will also find the report fascinating - despite its blandness of language in its descriptions of so many instances of Donald Tr ump’s obst r uction of justice as President!

Ever y concer ned citizen must read the 2 tables of contents, minimally.

A n imaginative citizen will readily connect the dots between Trump, his cronies, and Russian operatives attempting/succeeding in perverting our national election, with a careful reading of the rather descriptive Tables of Contents. All citizens should read and reread three times The Conclusion of the Report (designated page 394 at top & page 182 at bottom), immediately prior to Appendix A. Here it is for those without the report at hand.

“Because we determined not to make a traditional prosecutorial judgment, we did not draw ultimate c on clu sion s ab o u t the President’s conduct. The e v i d e n c e we o b t a i n e d about the President’s actions and intent presents difficult issues that would need to be resolved if we were making a traditional prosecutorial judgment.

At the same time, if we had conf idence after a thorough investigation of the facts that the President clearly did not commit obstruction of justice, we

the facts and the applicable legal standards, we are unable to reach that judgment. Accordingly, while this report does not conclude that the President committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him.”

Like other rational Americans, Robert Mueller expected Congress to use his report for the good of the nation and for the preservation of our Constitution.

But, granted the lack of moral fiber and/or backbone within the Republican Cong ressional Caucus, Rober t Mueller is now himself in the crosshairs of Trump and his toadies, led by William Barr.

Had something like this happened in Nazi Germany, the hy pothetical “special counsel” looking into Hitler’s actions would be summarily ar rested, tortured and executed! It would not surprise me if Donald Trump longs for such extrajudicial power for himself.

Long fearful of and much appalled by America’s inexorable march towards autocracy - aided and abetted by a mutated Christianity - I cannot expect Trump supporters to read a single word of The Mueller Report. Truth doesn’t matter to them, alas!

However, in the interest of saving our Constitution, I hope every rational citizen will come to its rescue.

Donald Tr ump is our Constitution’s most potent opponent i n A mer ica’s history!

9/11 Responders Shouldn’t Get “Handout” From Feds It galls me to see Jon Stewart yet again harassing Congress for yet another large handout from the taxpayers at the same time several tort law fi rms are advertising on television for

site to make a claim. I have a neighbor who was a carpenter for the NY subway system and claimed to be at ground zero who collected $500k. This same person tried unsuccessfully years ago to get a reduction on the tax assessment for his house simply because it was 20 miles from the Oyster Creek nuclear power station.

Almost eighteen years after 9/11, do you expect us to believe that anyone who has contracted a respiratory or other serious illness have not been affected by their occupations or lifestyle?

Fi remen enter bu r n i ng buildings with little or no facial protection. Likewise, don’t they have comprehensive medical plans of their own, or does it taste better if the taxpayers pay for it? And what happened to the $9 billion Congress sent to the Zadroga fund in December of 2017?

This subject is ripe for an investigative report. It should start from the beginning and include cash awards, tax breaks, medical costs, etc. so that everyone should be informed to make their own decisions without being stampeded by a talk-show host with a sharp political tilt.

SPOTLIGHT ON GOVERNMENT Correspondence & Commentary From Your Local, County, State & Federal Officials

Bill Would Legislate Treatment Of Migrant Children In U.S. Care WASHINGTON, D.C. U.S. Senators Bob Menendez and Cory Booker (both D-N.J.) joined Senators Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.), Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.), Patty Murray (D-Wash.), Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), and Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii) in introducing the Stop Cruelty to Migrant Children Act. This new legislation, supported by more than three dozen Senators, would put an end to the Trump administration’s cruel and neglectful treatment of children at the U.S.-Mexico border and reform how children fleeing persecution are treated between the moment at which they arrive at our borders to claim asylum and the ultimate resolution of their asylum case.

“As the Administration continues to implement their anti-immigrant agenda by incarcerating asylum-seeking families, shutting ports of entry, forcing children to stay in filthy conditions as a way to deter immigrants from coming to our country, it’s our re-

sponsibility to demand accountability, protect these individuals and ensure government funds are not used to further traumatize or harm asylum seekers,” said Menendez. “This critical legislation will first and foremost protect children and families at the border, provide real solutions to the growing humanitarian crisis including alternatives to detention, stopping family separation and ensuring migrants are treated humanely and afforded the due process they deserve.”

“All of the recent reports of abuse and neglect of children by this administration are horrifying the American people, but are the predictable byproduct of the racism and discrimination that drive the policies of this president and his appointees,” said Merkley. “No moral or religious tradition in the world condones hurting children to send a political message - but that is exactly what the Trump administration has done. We need a strong response to stop the cruelty

at the border and ensure that our nation treats these vulnerable children as we should, with respect, dignity, and compassion.”

“Democrats continue to propose real solutions to the same immigration problems the president complains about,” said Schumer. “We have legislation ready to go that would strengthen our asylum system, allowing immigrants to apply in their home countries; would hire more judges, to reduce the backlog of cases; and provide the security assistance Central American countries need to crack down on the drug cartels and gangs that send so many of their citizens fleeing. This new legislation will establish clear mandatory guardrails for the appropriate and humane treatment of children and families - it’s a necessary step to restore America’s moral credibility and an example of how we can deal with our immigration issues with dignity and common sense and we will fight to make it a reality.”

“As a former teacher, a

mother, and as a grandmother I am appalled by the heartbreaking reports coming from our southern border, and firmly believe we cannot allow this administration to continue to harm children and run roughshod over our shared values,” Murray said. “This legislation is just a step toward mitigating the harm done to these kids and holding those responsible accountable, but it’s a critical one we must take immediately before the kids in our care are even further hurt and traumatized. For the sake of the children, I urge all of our colleagues to join us in this effort to protect the kids in our care, because we will not stop fighting until this is made right.”

The Stop Cruelty to Migrant Children Act would create clear, non-negotiable standards for the treatment of children in America’s care, including: Ending family separations except when authorized by a state court or child welfare agency, or when Customs and Border Protection

President & Publisher Stewart Swann

and an independent child welfare specialist agree that a child is a trafficking victim, is not the child of an accompanying adult, or is in danger of abuse or neglect; Setting minimum health and safety standards for children and families in Border Patrol Stations.

The bill requires access to hygiene products including toothbrushes, diapers, soap and showers, regular nutritious meals, and a prompt medical assessment by trained medical providers.

Requiring children receive three meals a day that meet USDA nutrition standards.

Ending for-profit contractors from operating new Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) standard shelters or influx facilities.

The bill ensures that temporary influx facilities are state-licensed, meet Flores standards, and are not used to house children indefinitely.

Expanding alternatives to detention and the successful Family Case Management Program.

Removing roadblocks to placing unaccompanied children with sponsors by lower ing case manager caseloads, mandating lower staffing ratios, and ending the information sharing agreement between ORR and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

These provisions would ensure that children are moved out of detention centers and into community-based settings - usually, sponsored by family members - as soon as possible.

Ensuring unaccompanied children have access to legal counsel and continue to be placed in a non-adversarial setting for their initial asylum case review.

Additionally, the legislation would provide resources to non-profit centers that are helping to provide humanitarian assistance, and improve public oversight of the conditions children are being held in by allowing members of Congress and their staff, along with credentialed press (without cameras), to visit any facility with 24 hours notice.

CASA for Children of Monmouth County Seeks Volunteers

C O LT S N E C K – C o u r t A p p o i n t e d Special Advocates for Children (CASA for Children) of Monmouth County is seeking adults, 21 years and older to act as advocates for children in foster care. A CASA volunteer is a trained citizen who is appointed by a Judge to represent the best interests of a child in court. There are currently 550 children from Monmouth County who have been removed from their homes because of abuse or neglect. Although CASA for Children of Monmouth County continues to serve more of these children each year, the need for CASA volunteers continues to grow as more children enter the child welfare and court systems. To help meet this need, CASA is seeking caring, committed adults who are willing to speak up for a child as they go through the court system.

CASA volunteers work one-on-one with an abused or neglected child, advocating for his or her best interests. Essentially, CASA volunteers “speak up” for these children in the court and child welfare systems, making sure they are safe and

well-cared for, are getting the services they need, and are placed in a permanent, safe, nurturing home as quickly as possible. These children may also have health, learning, emotional, or psychological challenges, and need special services that the Court should be aware of via the CASA volunteer’s updates.

“CASA volunteers don’t require any specific education. All they need is compassion, objectivity, and a commitment to children. We’ll train and supervise them to be effective voices in court,” said Cynthia Van Brunt, Executive Director for CASA for Children of Monmouth County. “Our volunteers come from all walks of life, and diverse socio-economic and ethnic backgrounds. They are ordinary individuals who rise to the extraordinary by making a difference in the life of a child.”

Anyone interested in volunteer opportunities should visit casaofmonmouth.org for upcoming information sessions and program details or contact Lynn Goelz at 732-460-9100 Email: lynn@casaforchildrenmc.org for more information.

County Photographer Wins National Award

FREEHOLD – The Monmouth County Board of Chosen Freeholders presented a certificate of recognition to Michael J. Colarusso, County Photographer, for winning the 2nd Place 2019 Blue Pencil & Gold Screen Award for Photographer’s Portfolio from the National Association of Government Communicators (NAGC).

“I know I can speak for the entire Board when I say that we are so proud of Mike for winning this national award—and also for being the only award winner from New Jersey in the entire competition,” said Freeholder Director Thomas A. Arnone, liaison to the Department of Public Information and Tourism. “Mike is such a deserving professional who puts his heart and soul into his work. You can see his passion through the photos he takes as he captures important moments of Monmouth County history and its beautiful landscapes.”

Colarusso received the second place award for his photograph of the chair swing ride at the Keansburg Amusement Park in Keansburg. The photo has appeared in numerous Monmouth County Tourism online and print advertisements.

Each year, NAGC offers this communication awards program to recognize superior government communication products and those who produce them. According to their website, the principal purpose of NAGC is to advance communication as an essential professional resource at every level of local, state, tribal and national government while advocating, promoting and recognizing excellence in government communication.

To see more photos taken by Michael J. Colarusso, make sure to follow Monmouth County Government on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram at @MonmouthGovNJ.

Statement From Freeholder Arnone

MONMOUTH COUNTY – Freeholder Director Thomas A. Arnone, liaison to the Monmouth County Office of Shared Services, issued the following statement regarding New Jersey Assembly Bills A1100 and A4390: “On behalf of the Board of Chosen Freeholders, I am flattered to be included in the ‘Common Sense Shared Services Pilot Program.’ However, it is important to note that Monmouth County has been at the forefront of shared services initiatives for nearly a decade.

It would be a misrepresentation to consider Monmouth County as a ‘pilot’ when the County has truly been the pioneer of shared services and paved the way for other counties to streamline the process, create

greater cost savings for taxpayers and offer new revenue opportunities. Since its creation in 2011, shared services in Monmouth County have generated over $40 million.

All 53 municipalities share some type of service with the County. Whether it is municipal police departments, fire departments, first aid squads, authorities, commissions, public school or institutions of higher learning, all shared services have been positively impacting municipal budgets while delivering quality services to residents. If anyone needs assistance in creating a successful shared service program, please do not hesitate to reach out to Liz Perez, Monmouth County’s fulltime Shared Services Coordinator at 732-4317460, ext. 2115.”

Visit the Howell Alliance at August 6 National Night Out! HOWELL – Although the Howell Township Municipal Alliance will keep its free promotion a mystery until National Night Out on August 6, it says that the item—no bigger than a packet of Crystal Light—provides a preventive solution to several major health concerns, including accidental poisoning, environmental pollution, and opioid addiction/overdose.

The Howell Township Municipal Alliance collaborates across the community to prevent substance abuse and other at-risk behaviors through prevention awareness and education programs. It also promotes mental health and the reduction of stigmas associated with substance use and mental health disorders.

Alliance stakeholders include police officers, educators, town officials, businesses, local organizations, and concerned citizens. The Alliance is part of the Governor’s Council on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse (GCADA).

National Night Out is an annual campaign involving citizens, law enforcement agencies, civic groups, businesses, neighborhood organizations, and local officials from over 16,000

communities worldwide, including military bases. The event aims to increase crime and substance abuse prevention awareness, generate support for and participation in local anti-crime programs, strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships, and send a message to criminals that participating neighborhoods are organized and ready to fight back.

Howell Township’s National Night Out, held 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. on August 6 in the Howell Target parking lot, is coordinated by the Howell Township Police Department and Howell PAL, in partnership with Target Corporation and the National Association of Town Watch (NATW).

KNEE PAIN? Grinding, popping, difficulty walking or going up and down the stairs, bone-on-bone pain… Does any of this sound familiar?

There’s no one single answer to all knee pain, especially when every person is different. The truth is, it is impossible to know what kind of treatment would be effective until your case is examined. Only then can medical professionals determine what would be best for you.

At Monmouth Pain & Rehabilitation, there are no cookie cutter plans. With so many different services available in one facility, there are a number of possibilities and different combinations of treatments that can be customized to each patient.

H eRe ’ s t o Y ouR H eAltH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Grilling Lettuce Might Make You Sleepy

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. This summer, lots of people are barbecuing.

You probably think the word “grill” and “lettuce” shouldn’t be in the same sentence should they? Why not?

It wouldn’t be the first time a vegetable was grilled. Just think of zucchini, peppers and corn on the cob.

Wild lettuce, known as Lactusa virosa is a species from the lettuce family that is most interesting. It grows all over the world. It contains “lactucarium” a milky substance that can cause sedation and psychoactive effects like hallucinations. It should NOT be grilled.

Wild lettuce has bright green leaves which secrete the lactucarium. This compound resembles opium, a mild analgesic. In the early 1900’s, extracts of this species was used for whooping cough.

But you’re probably wondering about Iceberg lettuce, or Romaine aren’t you? To answer your first question (because I can read your mind), NO, these foods are not psychoactive.

Food Science and Biotechnology has an article entitled, “Sleep-inducing effect of lettuce (Lactuca sativa) varieties on pentobarbital-induced sleep.”

The scientists investigated the sleep-inducing effect of Romaine lettuce on mice who were put to sleep by pentobarbital, an anesthetic and anti-seizure drug. Because Romaine lettuce has a higher content of a compound called “lactucin,” it made people sleep longer than they would have normally. They tested the seed extract and the leaves themselves, seeds were stronger.

FYI, lactucin is part of the bigger compound lactucarium, which I mentioned earlier, so Romaine does actually have some sedating characteristics.

Iceberg didn’t make anyone snooze although

it’s fabulous for lettuce wraps!

Of the two lettuces, Romaine is what I recommend. Not because it causes drowsiness, trust me it’s not even remotely close to an Ambien! But because Romaine lettuce is full of antioxidants and chlorophyll which clean your internal biochemical gears. It also contains a lot of vitamin K and natural folate (methylation), plus what better way to consume delicious fiber?!

It’s also very high in potassium which normalizes blood pressure.

So this summer, try grilling lettuce along with your burgers and dogs. Here’s a recipe for you: Grilled Lettuce with Parmesan Ingredients 4 small Romaine hearts, rinsed 1 tablespoon of olive oil 2 TBLS favorite salad dressing 2 tea chopped fresh parsley Salt and Pepper to taste Optional: 1/2 cup fresh Parmesan or Goat Cheese Directions Cut an inch off of the top part of the Romaine leaves off, leaving the bottom core intact.

This allows you to grill the lettuce without it falling apart. Brush the lettuce with olive oil and place on your heated grill or skillet. Turn frequently to brown/char all sides. (They will slightly soften but they should not wilt or turn black). You want them crisp tender, and slightly charred. Once done, you can drizzle your favorite dressing on top. I like creamy Caesar dressing personally. Then sprinkle fresh parsley on top, and salt/pepper. Optionally, sprinkle Parmesan or fresh goat cheese.

Serve while warm.

Dear Joel

By Joel Markel

Umbrella Thief Dear Joel, They say ‘Save it for a rainy day’, and at least that’s what I thought I did. We have an umbrella thief at work. When I went to use my umbrella yesterday, the one I just brought to work that morning, it was gone.

This is not the first time this has happened.

Why do people think nothing of taking someone’s umbrella? Have you ever done this? Has it ever happened to you? Do I have to buy a safe for my umbrella?

Answer I think umbrellas fall into their own category of items like scissors, tape and pens, even jackets and sweaters which have all have been a ‘quick borrow’ by many. The problem is returning it, which is especially hard with an umbrella, because you need it when you arrive at your

desti nation.

Ye s , I h a ve ‘borrowed’ an umbrella, but guilt and responsibility made me return it the same day. We have a big group in my office, so we keep a little area stocked with often ‘borrowed’ items, some even donated by co-workers. We have umbrellas, cloth grocery bags, sweatshirts, jumper cables and many more things. The rule is you must return anything you use. It has saved us lots of grief. Maybe you could try it where you work.

Where parents have minor children, they often want to establish trusts in their Wills for the benefit of the minor children in the event that both parents should pass away. In such a case, the money is held in the trust for the benefit of the children. A person called the “trustee” is appointed by the Will to manage the trust on behalf of the children.

Most trusts for the benefit of minor children allow the money to be used for their health, education, maintenance and support. The term “education” usually also refers to college education. There are several ways to go about doing this. The most common ways are the (1) common trust or (2) the separate trust.

In the common trust, all of the money is held until the youngest child reaches an age specified in the Will. Upon the youngest child reaching the specified age, the monies remaining in the trust are then distributed to all of the children. In a separate trust, the assets are divided among the children and a separate trust is created for each child and each child receives their trust when the each reach the specified age.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of each? The advantage of the common trust is that the money is held until the youngest child reaches the specified age. In this way, the trustee can use the money in the trust and if necessary spend more of the money in the trust on one child as opposed to the others. As a parent, most people would be

willing to spend everything they had on one child at the expense of the other children if that child required greater care than the other chil- Marc S. Galella Esq. dren. By using a common trust you give the trustee the flexibility to do this. The drawback to the common trust is that the older children will have to wait a longer period of time to receive their share of the inheritance depending upon the age of the youngest child. This could be a disadvantage if there is a significant age difference between the youngest and oldest child.

The advantage of the separate trust is that each child will receive their share of the estate when they reach the specified age.

This means that the older children do not have to wait for their inheritance until the youngest child reaches the specified age.

The drawback to the separate trust is the trustee can only use the money in that individual child’s trust for the care of that child.

If one child requires significantly more care than the other children, the trustee is limited to the amount of money in that child’s trust and cannot use the money in the other trusts.

Which trust is better for you for your is something to be discussed with your estate planning attorney when making up your Will.

Our clients’ success is our greatest reward.

PROFESSIONAL PROFILE

Bartley

Healthcare Provides Home Sweet Home For Adult Residents

By Joyce Blay There’s no place like home, and for seniors at all stages of their adult lives, there’s no place like Bartley Healthcare Nursing, Rehabilitation and The Orchards At Bartley Assisted Living.

Conveniently located off County Line Road in Jackson, you’ll receive a friendly greeting and a welcoming smile from staff members or Bartley residents.

One of them may be Emilia Harrison, who turned 93 years old on December 4, 2015, and has been a Bartley resident for over five years.

“I don’t know where the time went,” she tells a visitor.

Emilia enjoys soaking up the sunshine outdoors on a regular basis, but says that residents have a wide variety of activities from which to choose.

“You do what you want to do,” she says.

For thirty years, Bartley

Healthcare has provided that flexibility to seniors requiring a wide range of facility services, thanks to Chief Executive Officer Philip Scalo and his physician partners.

“My partners had a very big practice in Jackson,” Scalo says. “We thought we could open a facility and do a very good job meeting residents’ needs.”

With his financial and legal expertise, Scalo and his physician partners make a good team.

Others think so, too.

The Orchards at Bartley has rec eived nu merous awards for excellence from the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services in partnership with the Healthcare Asso ciation of New Jersey (HCANJ); the American Healthcare Association/ National Center for Assisted Living; and the Assisted Living Federation of America.

“What we’ve always

tried to do is be leaders in our field,” Scalo says.

For the past three decades, that has been the hallmark of the Bartley experience for residents and the staff that ser ve their healthcare

needs.

Bar tley Healthc are opened as a 120 -bed skilled nursing home in 1985, one year after breaking ground.

Scalo says the facility’s first residents were in their seventies, but stayed into their eighties and late nineties.

Bar tley Healthc are began expanding its’ range of services and facilities by opening a memory care unit and a post-acute rehabilitation unit where patients typically stay less than 30 days, then return to their homes.

Today, Bartley Healthcare is a 234-bed facility offering a full range of skilled nursing services for orthopedic conditions and post-surgical joint replacements; cardiac and post-cardiac surgery recovery programs; enteral feeding; IV therapy, multiple trauma; pain management; respiratory; stroke; tracheostomy; and wound care.

The campus facilities also offer inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation; assisted living; memory care programs; respite/ hospice; and at-home services.

“We started with a basic concept, understanding and meeting the individual needs of both resident and patient,”Scalo says.

“Each step of our development has been based on the need for services. (For example,) in the late 1990s, we saw the need for memor y care programs.”

Scalo says that he and his partners have plans to add respirator y ser vices and a sub-acute program for Alzheimer’s patients.

Even after a resident leaves Bartley Healthcare, the facility ensures their continued rehabilitation by providing a follow-up program.

Residents that live at The Orchards At Bartley Assisted Living will feel right at home right away.

N e st l e d i n a qui et c ount r y set t ing, T he Orchards promotes a neighborhood environment. Located within the community, “Main Street” is a hub of activity that features a theater, exercise center, library with c omputer s, hair salon and barber shop, game room and other

gathering areas.

Family recreational oppor tunities abound at t h e n e i ghb o r h o o d movie theater, greenhouse and playground

Residents can share their Bartley adventure with other residents or pursue independent pastimes, indoors or outdoors. The choice is theirs.

Scalo says that Bartley’s core values are attitude, trust, teamwork, integrit y, re spect and excellence, which he emphasizes on a green bracelet with the acronym “A.T.T.I.R.E.” “The key thing we stress is that we’re a home providing the care levels needed at a certain phase in (an individual’s) life,” Scalo says. “It’s home for (on-site) staff, not What we’ve always just residents. We are tried to do is be leaders very experienced in this community and in our field. (we) give back to our –Chief Executive community.”

ARounD tHe JeRsey sHoRe How To Avoid Vacation Scams

FREEHOLD – Whether residents are traveling to sightsee, sunbathe or swim, the Monmouth County Board of Chosen Freeholders offers residents tips to take extra measures while planning a family vacation to avoid vacation scams and mishaps.

“It is so important that people research and carefully read travel offers that are commonly advertised on the internet, social media and various apps,” said Freeholder Lillian G. Burry, liaison to the Division of Consumer Affairs. “If one does not read the fine print, then that hard-earned vacation has the potential to turn into a nightmare.”

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) offers these suggestions for safe travel: • Look up travel companies, hotels, rentals and agents with the words “scam,” “review” or “complaint.”

• Look for extra costs. Resort fees can add $50 or more to your nightly cost.

• Ask about taxes, which may be significant in many locations.

• Get a copy of the cancellation and refund policies before you pay.

• If one buys travel insurance, be sure the agency is licensed.

• Bring copies of any confirmation details that show the rate and amenities you were promised.

• This also helps if the hotel or host says your reservation is “lost.”

• Use a credit card for your travel spending.

• This gives you more protection than paying by cash or debit card and it may be easier to dispute unauthorized charges.

“In addition to the threat of travel scams, please be mindful of identity theft and only travel with IDs and credit cards that are needed,” said Freeholder Burry.

“On behalf of the Board of Chosen Freeholders, I urge all residents to report scams, identify theft and any other fraudulent experiences to the Division of Consumer Affairs.”

For more information about the Division of Consumer Affairs, go to VisitMonmouth.com, call 732-431-7900 or email ConsumerAffairs@co.monmouth.nj.us. The office is open weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of july 20 - july 26

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): When you are filled with enthusiasm you can achieve everything you can imagine. You may realize that it is necessary to take steps to make your dreams come true. Friends will offer advice and encouragement this week.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Someone may offer ideas that capture your imagination and lure you away from dull chores. Enjoy pleasant escapes from the ordinary but don’t let them cause misunderstandings or disrupt your schedule this week.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Strike a balance between income and outflow. In the week ahead you might notice that you often spend money spontaneously or purchase items on a whim. This might be a good time to develop a savings strategy.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Greener pastures might grow more attractive. You may sometimes feel limited or frustrated by the necessities of modern life. Ambitious people may influence your outlook and impact daily routines as the week unfolds.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Your ideas and actions can spark joy as well as passion in the week to come. Sidestep a workplace struggle for dominance and focus your energies on making a valuable vision come true. Embrace wise business strategies.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Plant the seeds and success will sprout. Home fires may burn brightly, and you may benefit from harmonious family dynamics and team spirit. Your negotiation skills are in top form as the week begins.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): A loved one may seem changeable or distant right now, but in the end, true love conquers all. In the week ahead your social life could have ups and downs as you may be challenged to deal with various people with differing agendas.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Your past kindnesses and generosity will be rewarded. If you have a powerful financial need it is quite possible that your prayers will be answered this week. An acquaintance could give you a valuable tip.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You might hit the lottery of love in the week ahead.

The bonds of friendships can grow tighter and your social life could be buzzing. You may find it easier than usual to act on inspiring and romantic notions.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Tap into the creative energy and use your imagination to follow an idea to a satisfactory conclusion. You can launch something important in the week ahead if you are willing to put ego and control issues aside.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): All’s well that ends well. Your home or the workplace could seem like a hotbed of intrigue or crossed signals for short periods as this week unfolds, but issues will be resolved easily if you take a partner’s advice.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In the week ahead, partners and friends may often be more willing to discuss finance than romance. If you wait for the right opening, however, you will have a chance to express your enduring affections.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen Try This Quick, Light Dish When It’s Just Too Hot To Cook Outdoors

By Wolfgang Puck What can a food lover do in summertime when it’s too hot to go outside and grill? The answer is easy: Return to the stove with a recipe that’s so quick, satisfying and light that you’ll forget all about cooking outdoors.

The classic technique of sauteing is incomparably easy and so fast that you may sit down to your meal and blink your eyes in astonishment that something so delicious has almost magically appeared on your table.

As you may know, the word “saute” comes to us from the French word for “jump,” and in the kitchen it refers to cooking relatively small pieces of food over high heat in a wide, shallow pan - known as a saute pan, of course - with curving sides that help the food stay in the pan as you briskly stir or toss them. Once the food has cooked through in minutes, you add some flavorful liquid and stir and scrape to deglaze the pan deposits, producing a delicious sauce that completes the dish.

For a perfect example of this technique, look no further than my recipe for shrimp with pink peppercorn sauce. The medium-sized shrimp called for here take only a few minutes to cook through once you’ve started tossing them in the saute pan; any longer, and they would go from tender and juicy to rubbery and dry.

Once the shrimp have been sauteed and set aside to keep warm, the sauce comes together almost as quickly. First you deglaze the pan with a splash of dry vermouth (plus some minced shallot for extra flavor); then reduce some fish stock and enrich it with a little butter.

To add an extra dimension of flavor, I also like to include a tablespoon of whole pink peppercorns (available in well-stocked markets, in gourmet food shops or online), which have a bright, sharp, slightly sweet flavor. Named because they’re the same general size and shape as black and white peppercorns, though not related to them, these dried, rose-colored berries come from the Peruvian peppertree. (Since that tree is a member of the cashew family, anyone with tree nut allergies would be well advised to avoid the peppercorns. But you could add another sharp-tasting accent to the sauce such as a squeeze of lemon juice or some drained capers.)

To complete this quick indoor dish - which works well either as an appetizer or, in larger portions, as a light main course - I like to serve it on a bed of baby spinach. And what’s the easiest way to cook that spinach? You guessed it: sauteing!

SHRIMP WITH PINK PEPPERCORN SAUCE Serves 4 to 6

Join us for Rita’s Italian Ice! July 26th • 2-4pm RSVP to 732.363.8505

24 medium-sized plump fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails left attached if you like Kosher salt Coarsely ground black pepper 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 1 shallot, minced 3 tablespoons dry white vermouth 1 cup (250 mL) homemade fish stock (recipe follows) or good-quality store-bought fish stock 1 tablespoon pink peppercorns 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces 1/2 pound (500 g) baby spinach leaves, thoroughly rinsed and dried, stems removed

Season the shrimp lightly all over with salt and pepper.

Heat a large saute pan over high heat until very hot.

Drizzle in the oil, add the shrimp, and saute, stirring them frequently and turning them over to make sure they cook on both sides, until uniformly pink and opaque white, about 4 minutes total. Remove them to a covered dish, and keep warm.

Add the minced shallot to the pan, saute briefly just until fragrant, and then add the vermouth; quickly stir and scrape with a wooden spoon to deglaze the pan deposits. Immediately add the stock and pink peppercorns; boil, stirring frequently, until the liquid has reduced by about a third, 3 to 5 minutes. Using a wire whisk, add 4 tablespoons of the butter a few pieces at a time, whisking until fully incorporated before adding each of the few pieces, to form a creamy sauce. Set aside, cover, and keep warm.

In another saute pan over medium-high heat, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and cook, watching carefully, just until it begins to turn light brown. Immediately add the spinach, reduce the heat to medium, sprinkle lightly with salt, and stir the spinach just until it has uniformly wilted, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat.

To serve, divide the spinach among the centers of heated serving plates. Divide the shrimp among the plates, placing them neatly around and slightly overlapping the spinach. Drizzle the sauce and pink peppercorns over and around the shrimp. Serve immediately.

FISH STOCK Makes about 1 quart (1 L) 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 pounds fish bones, cut or broken into pieces, from any saltwater fish except salmon 1 carrot, peeled and sliced 1/2 yellow onion, peeled and sliced 1 shallot, peeled and sliced 1/2 stalk celery, sliced, leaves reserved 2 cups (500 mL) dry white wine 1 sprig Italian parsley 1 sprig fresh thyme 1 bay leaf 1/4 teaspoon whole black peppercorns Water In a medium-sized saucepan, heat the olive oil over moderate heat. Add the fish bones, carrot, onion, shallot and celery; saute, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon, until the vegetables start to soften, about 10 minutes.

Add the wine, and stir and scrape to deglaze the pan deposits. Add the reserved celery leaves, parsley, thyme, bay leaf and peppercorns. Add enough water to cover all the ingredients.

Raise the heat slightly, and bring the liquid to a boil; then, reduce the heat to maintain a brisk simmer.

Cook, uncovered, for 25 minutes.

Meanwhile, line a strainer with a double layer of cheesecloth and place it above a heatproof bowl.

When the stock is done simmering, remove it from the heat and pour it through the strainer. Use immediately, letting any unused stock to cool to room temperature before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days or in the freezer for up to four months.
