By Judy Smestad-Nunn BR IC K – O yst e r farming is taking off on Barnegat Bay, with a dema nd for them so high that growers can’t keep up, said

the operators of the Barnegat Oyster Collective, a distribution and advocacy organ i z at ion for oyst e r farmers.

Scott Lennox and Matt Gregg, both 35,

are New Jersey natives who were roommates at the University of Rhode Island.

Oyster farming is a thriving industry in Rhode Island, so they learned about it while

at school and came back home and decided to start a farm, Lennox said.

Historical Society Preserves Laurelton School Weathervane

By Kimberly Bosco BRICK – After years of petitioning, the Brick Historical Society has finally gained ownership of the historic weathervane that sat atop of the former Laurelton School on Route 88 in Brick.

The weathervane was an original facet of the Laurelton School, built in 1934. An addition was built onto the school in 1953, creating the building as it stands today. The weathervane depicts a little girl being led to school by a Pied Piper-type figure.

Once the school closed its doors, members of the Brick Historical Society realized that, with the future sale of the building, the weathervane might become a lost piece of township history.

In an effort to prevent this, society members wrote letters over the years requesting ownership of the weathervane to display it at the Havens Homestead Museum.

Just a few short months ago, the society was (Weathervane - See Page 19)

Superintendent Search Begins Amid Cuts

By Judy Smestad-Nunn BRICK – There was no mention of who would be filling in as the interim superintendent during a recent Board of Education meeting since Superintendent Gerard Dalton announced his plan to resign last month, just one year into his four-year contract.

He is contractually required to stay on for 90 days after his announcement, which would be August 24.

Meanwhile, during the meeting, the board awarded a contract not to exceed $11,500 to Educational Services Commission of New Jersey to perform a superintendent search.

During Dalton’s one-year tenure, the school district learned that its state funding would be drastically cut over seven years which would cumulatively result in a $42 million loss.

Mandatory property tax increases would help to make up for the shortfall, but since there is a 2 percent cap it would not be enough to stop measures that would include larger class sizes, teacher and staff layoffs and more.

Was It An Election Law Violation – Or A Mistake?

By Chris Lundy BRICK – Just how important are the charges the state brought against four Board of Education candidates from four years ago? Is it a violation of the public trust, like their opponents state? Or is it a clerical error?

The New Jersey Election Law Enforcement Commission issued complaints against the “Clean Slate for Brick BOE” team of John Lamela, Victoria Pakala, Stephanie Wohlrab and George White, and their treasurer Joseph Nezgoda (Pakala’s husband).

They ran in 2015, but only Wohlrab and Pakala are still on the board.

One charge was that they filed Form D-2 74 days past the deadline. This form lists candidates, the bank they’re using, and who in the campaign han(Law - See Page 6)

Continued From Page 1 Bay, so we star ted out super-smalltime. Our f irst operation was a rented boat slip at Beaton’s Boat yard,” he said. “We had our f irst harvest in October 2012, right before Sandy. Then we got cr ushed.”

The men spent the next few years reassessing how to go for ward. They decided they needed to diversify their location and their method of farming.

“The most important thing was, we couldn’t be the only ones doing this.

We needed sav v y bay men and baywomen to also be growing in the bay,” Len nox said. “Any other successf ul areas have a bunch of people doing it and teaching each other how to grow.”

All under water land is owned by the state, so in order to procure an area for oyster fa r m i ng t he men ha d to lease it from New Jersey. The leases are cheap, less than $100 a year, but when other costs are factored in, such as survey and permitting fees, licenses, insurance and more, the cost could

go as high as $1,000 a year per acre, he said.

“The DEP [Department of Environment al P rotect ion] on ly allows t he growing of oysters in the most pristine areas, which are regularly monitored by the state,” Lennox said.

“They also do not allow oyster farms where there is an existing population of hard clams, or near areas of large populations of eelgrass,” he said. “It’s an arduous process, and it can take about four years from the idea to a harvest.”

Lennox and Gregg, who had full time jobs as a high school science teacher and in the music industr y, respectively, quit their day jobs and spend about 10 0 hou r s a week t e nd i ng to t hei r own oyster farm, “Forty North Oyster Farm,” which includes growing areas just south of the Mantoloking Bridge in Brick; in Barnegat Light; and Little Egg Harbor.

The lease in Brick includes about 20 acres. Only about f ive acres are currently being used for oyster farming, and some of that space was given to

other oyster far mers, which include commercial f isher men, clammers, a rest au ra nt g roup, a nd even a la ndscaper who grows the oysters as a side business, he said.

“One main guy, Tommy Burke, has done the most to keep up good relations with the other users,” Lennox said.

Burke, 24, was bor n and raised on Bar negat Bay in a waterfront neighborhood behind Beaton’s Boat yard.

He attended Ocean County College for two years and got his four-year degree from Rutgers. He star ted his oyster farm, “Sloop Point Oyster,” while he was a student at OCC. The young oyster far mer also has about 20 acres at the Brick location and raises two types of oysters: Sloop Point and Old Barney Salts which vary in f lavor and shape.

“There are many different methods of farming oysters, but you start with seeds, which are just a few millimeters and are essentially baby oysters,” Burke explained.

The seeds can be purchased at hatch-

er ies located along t he coa st f rom Florida to Maine. He bought his from Cape Cod O yst e r Compa ny, wh ich raise the seeds from a “spat” stage to planting size.

“Then I plant them,” he said. Oysters take between 18 months and two years to grow, depending on the seed and the weather Burke said.

At the Brick location, where the water is f ive to eight feet deep, Burke grows oysters on shelves that are attached to black f loats. The shelves have suspended square plastic mesh shelves which provide a home for the oysters to grow.

He has separate f ields of oysters that are different stages of growth.

In Bar negat Light, where the water is more shallow, he grows the oysters in bottom cages.

“Oysters feed off plankton, and each oyster can f ilter 50 gallons of water a day,” he said.

Burke said the oyster growing business operates 12 months a year.

Once the water temperature reaches 50 degrees, usually around Thanksgiving, oysters go dormant until the water goes back above 50 degrees, usually around Easter, he said. When they’re dormant they can still be harvested, they just can’t feed themselves, Burke explained.

Sometimes in the winter Burke has to break the ice to get to the oysters, which is challenging but can also be nice, he said.

“I’m in the groove, I’m making a living and enjoying it as well,” said Burke.

The oyster farmers pool their oysters together and sell them, Lennox said. This year they harvested about 1.5 million oysters in Barnegat Bay, with an estimated 250,000 harvested from the Brick location alone.

“There is an endless list and an endless demand of restaurants and retail stores who want to buy oysters, Lennox said.

“We can’t see the ceiling - we can never fulfill the demand. It’s an amazing place to grow oysters and it’s a fortunate product to market in the tri-state area.”

Continued From Page 1 Brick resident and former Republican council candidate Charles Bacon asked about a lawsuit the district has filed against the state over the loss of aid.

The Brick school district hired Weiner Law Group of Parsippany since they had already been representing other school districts in the state that had lost state aid, said school board attorney Ben Montenegro.

It minimizes the cost to Brick since all the districts would chip in to pay for the legal representation, he explained after Bacon asked why the school district did not use an Ocean County law fi rm.

“I heard a lot of buzz about this when the S-2 [the school funding bill that changed state aid allocations] was passed last July, but I haven’t heard about the status of it,” Bacon said.

School Business Administrator James Edwards said the state attorney general’s office had filed a motion to dismiss the litigation. Weiner Law Group filed an opposition to that motion so now it’s in a judge’s hands to decide whether or not the case has merit to move forward.

Bacon asked when the judge would make a decision; Edwards said there is no set time.

“We’re gonna lose $22 million. What’s the game plan if we lose the lawsuit? A lot of teachers are going to lose their jobs,” Bacon said.

“It’s gonna impact the education of our children, and our taxes are going to go

The Brick Times, July 27, 2019, Page 5 through the roof. Is there any discussion going on right now?” he asked.

Board President Stephanie Wohlrab said there is a lot of discussion going on but “I don’t think there’s anything we can point to and share at this time.”

“So is it confidential, talking about Plan B?” Bacon asked.

Montenegro said some of the discussion is confidential and could not be discussed in public, such as litigation strategy with the Weiner Law Group or personnel issues.

“My sense as a citizen of this town, between the Board of Ed, the council and the mayor, is you’re not doing anywhere near what you should be doing,” Bacon said.

“This is a ‘Norma Rae’ moment with this district,” he said, referencing the movie about getting support to fight the good fight. “This is a criminal thing, taking money away from us. This is all about politics,” Bacon said.

“We cannot sustain this loss...if you don’t think this is important - I don’t hear it from you, and I don’t hear it from the council and I don’t hear it from the mayor,” said Bacon.

Superintendent Dalton remained quiet until that moment.

“I have to interject here,” he said. “I know you haven’t been to board meetings recently, but this district has done quite a bit,” Dalton said to Bacon.

Since the loss of state aid was announced, Dalton said the Brick School District marched on Trenton where he was interviewed outside the state house.

cludes 77 NJ school districts, Dalton said.

He said he has spoken at both the Senate and Assembly budget hearings in Trenton and has met with legislators in the evenings.

“So we have done things you may not be aware of,” Dalton said to Bacon.

While fighting the school aid cuts, Dalton said he has also at the same time been running the day-to-day operations of the school district.

“So I understand your frustration because I share it,” he said. “We waited for hours in Trenton for our few minutes to speak,” Dalton said. “We took it very seriously.”

Bacon said the bill that cuts spending to Brick was pushed through by Senator Sweeney and Governor Murphy “who don’t care about Ocean County.”

“They don’t draw any votes from this county,” Bacon said. “This money is getting funneled into other school districts and we’re going to pay a heavy price for this.”

The next Board of Education meeting will be on Aug. 8 at 7 p.m. at the Professional Development Center located at the Veterans Complex.

violations.

With regards to the fines, he noted that $7,600 is the maximum, and that most candidates who cooperate see a reduction in fines. Most candidates try to fix their paperwork errors to comply.

The Commission offers training for candidates and treasurers in order to avoid mishaps in filing paperwork, he added.

The board of education is technically a nonpartisan position, but that doesn’t mean that politics doesn’t get involved.

An opponent, Robert Canfield, who is running for a board position, responded to initial reports calling for her resignation.

“Ms. Wohlrab and her team need to resign. They cannot follow campaign law, how can we expect them to keep the kids and taxpayers best interests in mind?” he wrote in a message to newspapers.

Wohlrab, who now serves as the board’s president, said that after the complaints were issued, the candidates addressed them. She shared the paperwork with this newspaper to back up her statement. The complaint came out on July 3, and the paperwork addressing the complaint was filed on July 10.

The treasurer, having done this for the first time, didn’t realize he had to file a particular form. She said it was an easy mistake to make.

“This is just a political game,” she said of all the publicity this issue has received.

Continued From Page 5 “We took school buses and we begged community members to join us, and we had no response from our community to come with us for the ‘Norma Rae’ moment,” Dalton said.

The superintendent said he was very concerned that despite getting the word out that buses were in place at the old Foodtown site for residents to get a ride to the march on Trenton, only one person showed up.

“So we have done the Norma Rae,” he said to Bacon.

Dalton and Edwards had two meetings in the governor’s office as “Mr. Edwards educated them on the school funding formula,” the superintendent said.

“We’ve done petitions, we’ve done letter writing campaigns, we have done these things,” Dalton said. “We have gone to Senator Sweeney’s office, we’ve worked with our local legislators here in town and met with them multiple times.”

Also, the district has joined the group “Support Our Students” (SOS) that in-

On Sept. 18, 2015, they deposited four contributions totaling $6,400. Anything more than $300 is to be reported within 29 days. They should have reported it by Oct. 2, but instead they reported it on Nov. 25.

In a separate charge, they deposited five contributions totaling $4,157.80 on Nov. 12, 2015 that had not been reported back then.

There were four other charges involving the candidates individually. Each one had an account with just their name, such as “Lamela for Brick BOE,” opened with $750. In each case, they failed to report that initial $750. They also filed the paperwork between 66 and 74 days late.

Each of the charges carries with it a fine that would be not more than $7,600.

The five people named in the charges will have an opportunity for a hearing, the state said.

Joe Donohue, spokesman for the New Jersey Election Law Enforcement Commission, said that he can’t comment on specific cases.

State Sues IRS Over Deduction Limit Imposed On Charity From The Desk Of The

Governor Phil Murphy TRENTON - Acting to protect state taxpayers from the Trump Administration’s repeated efforts to unfairly target them, Governor Phil Murphy and Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal announced that New Jersey has filed a federal lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the U.S. Treasury Department.

Filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, the lawsuit seeks to strike down a new IRS rule that would prevent New Jersey residents from obtaining a full federal charitable deduction whenever they contribute to local governments and other qualifying institutions and receive tax credits in return.

The federal government began targeting states like New Jersey two years ago when it enacted a 2017 tax overhaul that placed, for the first time,

a $10,000 cap on the federal deduction for state and local taxes (SALT). The SALT cap disproportionately harmed taxpayers in New Jersey, Connecticut, and New York.

At the time, U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin – named as a defendant in the lawsuit – confirmed that the SALT deduction cap was intended to “send a message” to states like New Jersey that they would need to change their tax policies.

To ease the burden of New Jersey taxpayers, Governor Murphy signed S1893/A3499 into law, which allowed residents to make charitable contributions to qualifying local institutions, and to receive partial tax credits of up to 90 percent against their local property tax bills when they did so.

At least 33 states have developed over 100 charitable contributions programs, sim-

ilar to the one established by S1893/A3499, that provide a state or local tax benefit in return for a charitable contribution to a qualifying entity under Section 170(c).

These programs incentivize individuals to donate to causes ranging from natural resource preservation and aid for higher education to domestic violence shelters.

The IRS consistently treated charitable contributions made pursuant to these programs as fully deductible under federal tax law.

But when New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut decided to establish such programs, the IRS changed its mind, and issued a new rule aimed at nullifying the tax benefit New Jersey was making available to charitable givers. The Final Rule requires taxpayers to subtract the value of any state and local tax credits they receive for charitable giving from their federal charitable contribution deduction.

The requirement is unprecedented in the 101-year history of the charitable deduction, and flies in the face of prior IRS policy statements and tax court rulings on the issue.

The New Jersey-led lawsuit describes IRS’s action as a “radical break” from historic precedent, and describes the rule as arbitrary, outside the agency’s statutory authority, and a violation of the federal Administrative Procedures Act. In addition to being unlawful, the complaint asserts, the rule threatens economic harm to New Jersey and other states by discouraging charitable giving, and by depriving such local entities as school districts, municipalities, and counties of important funding. Indeed, because the law signed by Governor Murphy does not provide dollar-for-dollar tax credits, contributions made pursuant to that program would yield a net increase in local revenues, which local governments could use on vital services like education.

“This is another unfair attack on our states coming out of Washington,” said Attorney General Grewal.

“These tax credit programs were fine when 33 states had them. But when New Jersey, New York and Connecticut followed suit, the IRS adopted brand new rules to shut

them down. As I promised when the IRS first proposed this rule, we’re taking the IRS to court to fight back.”

The states of New York and Connecticut joined the lawsuit, which Governor Murphy and Attorney General Grewal announced at the South Orange Fire Department.

“This is not a fight we asked for, but it is one we are proud to wage - on behalf of our taxpayers, and the countless others in our fellow states who are realizing now that they are financial collateral damage to the Trump administration’s rank politicization of the tax code,” said Governor Phil Murphy. “We are committed to fighting Washington to end this unfair and unconstitutional tax on New Jersey’s taxpayers.”

“The Trump administration and the IRS are trying to undermine states’ efforts to protect our taxpayers against the unprecedented, unlawful and politically motivated capping of the SALT deduction,” said Governor Andrew Cuomo.

“The final IRS rule flies in the face of a century of federal tax law that says state choices to provide tax incentives for charitable donations do not

affect the federal deductibility of those gifts. Our message to Mr. Trump and the IRS is simple: we look forward to seeing you in court.”

“The federal tax reforms approved by Congress were promoted as a tax cut, but in reality they’ve resulted in a tax hike for millions of citizens, including thousands here in Connecticut,” said Governor Ned Lamont.

“This was a purely partisan bill and – let’s be frank – aimed directly at blue states like Connecticut, New York, and New Jersey. It’s unfair, discriminatory, and unconstitutional.”

“Our message to the IRS today is simple. No matter how many times you change your rules - from capping the SALT deduction to reversing your longstanding approach to charitable donations - we will challenge you in court,” said New Jersey Attorney General Grewal. “Our residents already pay more to the federal government than we get in return. That is why I remain committed to standing up for New Jersey taxpayers in the face of this onslaught coming out of Washington.”

Study Says NJ Slips In Being Business-Friendly TRENTON - According to a recent ranking

by CNBC of America’s Top States for Business, New Jersey has dropped four spots from 32nd in 2017 to 36th in 2019.

Senator Jim Holzapfel and Assemblymen Greg McGuckin and Dave Wolfe of the 10th Legislative District point out that this number is a result of Governor Murphy and the Democrat controlled legislature who are continuing to make it more difficult for businesses to grow and operate in our state’s economic climate.

“If you own a business in New Jersey you know how challenging it is to compete against companies in neighboring states that have lower operating costs,” stated Senator Holzapfel.

“New Jersey has drastically declined as a place for new and growing businesses and it will only continue to get worse due to higher taxes and Governor Murphy’s minimum wage hike.”

New Jersey ranks below bordering states such as Pennsylvania, New York and Connecticut

as businesses are beginning to leave for more affordable options.

“The fact is businesses and residents will leave our state for more profitable options if we continue this trend of high property and increased sales taxes,” added Assemblyman McGuckin.

“Minimum wage hikes are a death sentence for our economy and our business climate as a whole. We can’t attract business owners, tourists or new residents to our state if we continue make this state unaffordable.”

The study grades all 50 states based on 10 categories including workforce, infrastructure, cost of business and quality of life.

“We are extremely concerned about New Jersey’s overall economic future,” said Assemblyman Wolfe. “We’ve seen the impact at the local level with the biggest hit to small businesses and tourism at the Jersey Shore. We must work to lower taxes and make this state more desirable for businesses to grow and prosper.”

Ocean Medical Center Celebrates 35 Years with Flag Raising Ceremony

BRICK – Hackensack Meridian Health Ocean Medical Center celebrated its 35th anniversary with an official flag raising ceremony, attended by team members, leadership, volunteers and government officials, on the front lawn of the medical center July 12.The significant milestone was marked as a drone flew overhead to capture footage of the flag raising and photograph team members positioned in a number ‘35’ formation.

It was the same location that thousands of Brick res idents gath e r e d o n Ju l y 4, 1984 to officially dedicate its new 120-bed hospital with ceremonies and celebratory fireworks that lit the sky over the hospital that evening. “As we celebrate our 35th anniversary, we are proud of what Ocean Medical Center has become to our community and the contributions it has made to transform the delivery of health care,” said Jason Kreitner, chief hospital executive of Ocean Medical Center. “Ocean Medical Center has grown to become an advanced care hospital that is a tremendous health resource to the communities we serve by offering the convenience and easy access

of a community hospital, with the high technology advances and expertise of a major medical center.”

Highlights of the event featured past and present team members and special guests, Ocean Medical Center Association, who were instrumental in building the hospital in Brick 35 years ago for its residents.

“The success of Ocean Medical Center including the major investments, facility upgrades and advances in patient care would not have happened if it weren’t for the hard work and persistence of this dedicated group residents who formed the fundraising arm of the hospital,” said Kenneth N. Sable, M.D. MBA, FACEP, regional president, southern market, Hackensack Meridian Health. “We are grateful to the Ocean Medical Association and Guild of Ocean Medical Center who were integral in the founding of Ocean Medical Center by raising several million dollars over the past 35 years.”

Located in the heart of one of the largest and fastest growing counties in the state, Ocean Medical Center has become a vital part of the community since its opening.

H ERE ’ S T O Y OUR H EALTH Dr. Izzy’s Sound News Presented By: Isidore Kirsh, Ph.D., F.A.A.A. (N.J. Lic. #678)

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

Do You Get What You Pay For?

We have become more and more health conscious. Visits to the dentist, eye doctor and family doctor have increased dramatically. Unfortunately, visits to the audiologist for suspicion of hearing loss have decreased. Most people are so busy visiting their doctors they have a tendency to put off seeking hearing health care for at least several years. As a general guideline, if you are asking your family or friends to repeat information on a daily basis, you should seek the services of an audiologist and have your hearing completely evaluated.

Technology in the hearing aid world has dramatically blossomed. More and more individuals with hearing loss are interested in digital technology as opposed to conventional hearing aids, which are a thing of the past. A digital system incorporates listening from both ears through a computer which monitors speech sounds over a million times a second. Satisfaction studies clearly support the use of digital systems over conventional analog hearing aids. In my opinion, you get what you pay for. Digital hearing systems incorporating multiple microphone technology, enhanced noise reduction capabilities, data logging

and/or artificial intelligence are strongly recommended over those first generation digital hearing systems. The smaller completely-in-the-canal digital hearing systems (i.e. almost invisible hearing aids) should not increase the cost of hearing instruments. The technology within the hearing instrument determines the cost. As a general rule of thumb, in my opinion, the smaller the hearing aid, the more problems you will have with it.

As a reminder, insist on a 30- to 75-day trial period with all digital hearing systems.

Since you have a greater investment, your expectations regarding communication improvement should be higher. In my opinion, some of the more advanced digital hearing systems are manufactured by Phonak, Siemens, Sonic Innovations, GN Resound and Oticon.

If you are asking people to repeat, turning the TV or radio louder than normal or if your family or friends are complaining that you have a hearing problem, I would strongly encourage you to have your hearing evaluated by an audiologist. If you are in need of amplification, remember that you always get what you pay for.

H ERE ’ S T O Y OUR H EALTH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Protect Yourself With Fruit

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. Some people eat nothing but fruit. They are called fruitarians. While I do not advocate this diet for everyone, I do see the virtues in fruits! I highly recommend you include fruits in your diet. The primary reason is they taste great, give you natural fiber and contain natural antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds. This will tamp down some of the pain cytokines that your body has run amok with. Here are some fruits of the season, and the primary reason I recommend them.

Apricots Apricots are yellow-orange and the color comes from beta carotene which is a precursor to vitamin A. They also contain lutein and zeaxanthin. These are all useful for vision. Apricots have been studied for their beneficial role in fatty liver.

Pomegranates These fruits contain compounds that naturally lower your blood pressure. If you drink more than say a shot glass per day, and you’re also taking blood pressure medications, your numbers may go too low. Pomegranate juice has another helpful effect on the body in that is a natural, mild blood thinner.

Fig fruit.

Figs are now being studied for their ability to help with diabetes, as well as hypertension. They are high in potassium (and low in sodium) which means they can reduce blood pressure. Figs contain abscisic acid, which has been studied for its ability to help with carbohydrate metabolism and blood sugar.

This fruit extract is in GlucoScript Max. Strawberries Strawberries are red from the anthocyanins. These gorgeous fruits contain ferulic acid have been shown to have a remarkably high scavenging activity toward chemically

generated radicals, thus making them effective in inhibiting oxidation of human LDLs Blackberries These contain antibacterial compounds that are thought to help with gum disease.

They also contain lot of quercetin and ellagic acid which taken together act as very strong free-radical scavengers and protect your cells from DNA damage. This could be helpful if you have a history of cancer.

Grapefruits This fruit can help with appetite suppression and may be useful as an adjunctive to your weight loss program and exercise regimen.

It can spark more production of cholecystokinin which is a ‘stop sign’ for eating.

Grapefruit rind (and orange rind) contain a lot of naringen, a compound that causes a bitter taste in the fruit. This compound is the one that interacts with some antihistamines and statins. That said, naringen is also known for its cough-suppressant action, and ability to help out with asthma.

Apples These could help reduce stroke, compliments of the high amount of quercetin.

This effect was even confirmed by a study published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition which evaluated 9,208 men and women, concluding, “The intake of apples is related to a decreased risk of thrombotic stroke.”

Raspberries The fruit itself contains vitamin C, quercetin and ellagic acid. These are all strong antioxidants and fight cancer and inflammation. The leaves of raspberries have been used to create commercial teas which are widely available.

The leaves contain fragarine, which is a strong inhibitor of uterine contractions. In other words, a cup of raspberry leaf tea can help with PMS.

In 1998, the State of New Jersey adopted the Automobile Insurance Cost Reduction Act (AICRA) to reduce the cost of automobile insurance by reducing the benefits available to persons who are injured in automobile accidents. This means less coverage to pay for medical treatment and less rights to recover monetary damages from careless drivers who injure your family. Protect yourself.

Automobile insurance is mandatory in New Jersey. The failure to carry automobile insurance may be punishable by imprisonment.

When purchasing automobile insurance, you have two choices; you are required to select either a Basic Policy or a Standard Policy.

We do not recommend choosing the Basic Policy.

The Basic Policy only provides minimal coverage and leaves you unprotected in several areas. A Basic Policy only provides you with $5,000.00 of property damage liability coverage if someone makes a claim against you and only provides $15,000.00 of medical expense benefits should you require medical treatment for your injuries.

The Basic Policy does not cover you if you injure someone else. The Basic Policy does not provide Uninsured Motorist coverage to protect you and your family if the careless driver who causes the collision is uninsured or is insured under a Basic Policy. Perhaps most importantly, the Basic Policy will not provide you with a free lawyer to defend any claim against your personal assets.

We recommend that you purchase a Standard Policy. A Standard Policy provides the best insurance coverage to protect your assets if you are sued and to provide compensation to you and your family if you/they are injured.

The Standard Policy does provide med-

ical expense benefits (PIP) coverage which Michael J. Deem includes medical expenses up to $250,000.00 per person per accident.

The Standard Policy also provides you with Uninsured Motorist Coverage (UM Benefits), so if you are injured by someone who does not have automobile insurance, is insured under a Basic Policy or leaves the scene of the collision then you and your family are covered for your losses.

When you purchase the Standard Policy you must elect a “tort option” that will determine your right to make a claim. You must select either the “limitation on lawsuit option” or the “no limitation on lawsuit option.” If you purchase the Basic Policy then you are assigned the “limitation on lawsuit option.” We recommend that you choose the “no limitation on lawsuit option.” Ask your insurance representative what is the actual dollar amount that your overall premium will increase if you elect the “no limitation on lawsuit option.”

By choosing the “ limitation on lawsuit option” you are limiting you legal right to make a claim for monetary damages unless you sustain one of the following injuries: Death, Dismemberment; Significant scarring or disfigurement; Displaced Fractures; Loss of Fetus or a Permanent Injury that can been diagnosed by credible, objective medical testing.

Selecting the correct insurance coverage is extremely important when it comes to protecting your family and personal assets.

Weathervane:

Continued From Page 1 finally heard on this matter. While discussing the matter of the weathervane with Deborah Murphy, secretary to Brick Township Mayor John C. Ducey, Brick Historical Society President Ed Mangold of Whiting was able to secure help from the township.

According to the society, Mayor Ducey aided in talks with the Brick School Board Business Administrator, James Edwards.

While the school district could not donate the weathervane directly to the society, they gave it to the township which in turn sold it to the society. Recently the township introduced a resolution to sell the weathervane for $1 to

Brick Historical Society.

“Thank you to all the people who aided in procuring the weathervane,” said Mangold.

With the help of Laurelton Fire Company Station 23, the weathervane was removed from the school on July 13 and delivered to the Havens Homestead Museum by members of the Public Works Department.

According to Mangold, the Society is planning to install it on a cupola on the roof of a red barn on the property. The barn houses many historic displays inside, and when the weathervane sits above it, it will now have an extra special feature.

For more information about the historical society, visit bricktownshiphistoricalsociety. com or call 732-785-2500.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In the upcoming week you can develop plans and ideas with enthusiasm and make a realistic appraisal of their potential pitfalls too. Don’t be afraid to roll up your sleeves, dive into a project and get your hands dirty.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Some people will expect you to have answers at your fingertips as this week unfolds, and it will be important to have the details correct. Stay on your toes at the workplace to keep up with new developments.

wolfgang puck’s kitchen Lighten Up Your Summer Dessert With Seasonal Stone Fruit

By Wolfgang Puck SUMMER FRUIT COBBLER WITH PHYLLO NESTS Serves 8 For the phyllo nests: 1 8-ounce (250-g) roll packaged phyllo, refrigerated or frozen and thawed 1/3 cup (85 g) granulated sugar 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon Nonstick spray For the cobbler filling: 2 pounds (500 g) ripe nectarines, halved, pitted, and cut into 1/4-inch (6-mm) slices 1 pound sweet cherries, pitted 3/4 pound (185 g) ripe apricots, halved, pitted, and thinly sliced 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar 1/4 cup (60 mL) fresh lemon juice 1/4 cup (60 mL) all-purpose flour 1 vanilla bean, cut in half lengthwise, seeds scraped out and reserved with the pod 1 cinnamon stick Pinch freshly grated nutmeg 4 cups (1 L) fresh blackberries 1/3 cup (85 mL) Streusel (recipe follows) Position a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 360 F (175 C). With nonstick spray, coat the insides of 8 ramekins, each 4 1/2 inches (11.4 cm) wide by 1 inch (2.5 cm) deep. Set aside.

For the phyllo nests: Unwrap the phyllo, but leave the sheets rolled up together. On a clean cutting board, use a sharp knife to cut the roll crosswise into 1/4-inch (6-mm) slices. Gently toss to separate into loose strips. You should have about 8 cups (2 L).

In a small bowl, stir together the sugar and cinnamon.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Measure 1 cup of loosely packed phyllo strips, and arrange in a 4-inch (10-cm) ring on the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining phyllo for a total of 8 rings. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, spray lightly with nonstick spray, and bake until golden brown and crispy, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Bring a kettle of water to a boil.

For the cobbler filling, in a medium saucepan combine the nectarines, cherries, apricots, sugar, lemon juice, flour, vanilla seeds and pod, cinnamon and nutmeg. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, just until the juices start to thicken but the fruit is still firm, about 5 minutes.

Remove the vanilla pod and cinnamon stick. Stir in the blackberries.

Divide the mixture evenly among the ramekins. Sprinkle streusel on top.

Place the ramekins in a baking pan. Pull out the oven rack partway and place the pan on it. Then, carefully pour boiling water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Carefully slide the rack into the oven. Bake until the juices are thick, about 30 minutes. Carefully remove from the oven and set the ramekins aside to cool for a few minutes.

Transfer each ramekin to a serving plate. Place a phyllo nest on top.

Serve immediately.

STREUSEL Makes about 1 3/4 cups (435 mL) 1/4 cup (60 g) unblanched whole shelled almonds 1/3 cup (85 mL) all-purpose flour 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar 2 tablespoons granulated sugar 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 3/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg Pinch of ground cardamom 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces 1/2 cup (125 mL) quick-cooking rolled oats Position the rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 F (175 C).

Spread the almonds on a baking sheet, and toast until fragrant and slightly darkened, 15 to 18 minutes, turning occasionally with a metal spatula. Cool to room temperature. Coarsely chop by pulsing briefly in a food processor with the stainless-steel blade. Set aside.

In the processor, combine the flour, sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg and cardamom. Pulse several times to combine. Add the butter, and process just until the mixture comes together.

Transfer to a medium bowl. Add the oats and almonds, and stir well. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
