—Photos courtesy Jackson Police National Night Out was an opportunity for the public to meet first responders.

By Chris Lundy JACKSON – Residents filled the Jackson Shopping Plaza parking lot on North County Line Road to meet and give thanks to the first responders that service their community.

Presented by Jackson PBA No. 168, Nation-

al Night Out Against Crime is an initiative designed to promote police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie. According to National Night Out’s web site, it is an international event celebrated in local communities and military installa-

tions around the world.

In Jackson, it gave residents the opportunity to meet members of Jackson’s police, fire department, first aid squads and Police Explorers and see the vehicles up close.

There were also plans

for demonstrations for a defibrillator and Fatal Vision goggles, as well as other demonstrations.

Inflatable rides, games, prizes, food and drinks kept the party going.

County Officials Looking To Expand Open Space Fund

By Kimberly Bosco OCEAN COUNTY – In the last 20 years, the Ocean County Natural Lands Trust Fund has successfully preserved close to 30,000 acres of open space.

In an effort to continue this progress, the Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders will ask voters to amend the program in order to expand its purpose allowing the trust fund to be used for costs of acquisition, development and maintenance for recreational and historic preservation purposes.

Residents will be asked to vote for this question on the ballot in November.

“This proposal will not increase the open space tax that is currently in place,” said Ocean County Freeholder Director Virginia E. Haines, who serves as liaison to the county’s Natural Lands program. “But what it does provide is more f lexibility within the program…It would assist in our efforts to develop further some of our parks like the Barnegat Branch Trail, for example,” she said. “Also it would help in our efforts of historic preservation for such important buildings like the Cox House in Barnegat Township.”

According to Haines, the program’s first priority will always be acquisition of open space in Ocean County.

Veterans Administration Clinic Busiest In NJ

By Judy Smestad-Nunn BRICK - With an estimated 40,000 veterans living in Ocean County, the Veterans Administration’s Outpatient Clinic on Route 70 in Brick is “by far” the busiest of 10 community-based VA clinics in New Jersey, said director of the VA New Jersey Health Care System Vincent F. Immiti.

There are 10,000 veterans enrolled to receive their primary care at the Brick clinic, and with an estimated 85,000 to 90,000 visits a year, the facility

is one of the 27 U.S. clinics that will be expanded after Congress approved a $1.5 billion spending plan in 2014 to improve health care to veterans.

Immiti was at Brick’s James J. Howard Outpatient Clinic on Wednesday Aug. 7 to tour the facility along with Congressman Andy Kim (D-3rd), Veterans Integrated Service Network 2 Director Dr. Joan McInerney, Chief of VA Outpatient Clinics in NJ Melba West, and veteran leaders from Ocean County.

Not only is the Brick facility the busiest in New Jersey, it is also the largest and offers more services than the other clinics. With a growing population of younger veterans, not having enough space or parking has been a problem for years.

At 34,335 square feet, the Brick clinic offers services including primary care, mental health, dental, audiology, radiology, pharmacy, physical therapy, and much more.

Clinic:

Continued From Page 1 Tele-Health is a new service for veterans who can’t leave their homes, said Public Information Officer for the VA Jason Kaneshiro.

“Veterans can be seen remotely by a VA doctor using technology like smart phones and computers to improve services to vets,” said Kaneshiro, who served 10 years in the Army.

The square footage for the proposed facility is about 60,000 square feet, and with 450 parking spaces would offer all the existing services and more, he said.

The lease on the Brick clinic expires in September 2020, but there would be a bridge lease until a new facility is complet-

ed, said Kaneshiro.

The larger facility might be new construction, or it could be a rehabilitated existing structure, but it is still in the planning stages.

There was no word on where in Ocean County it would be located, he said.

Meanwhile, the Brick clinic has hired four doctors to replace doctors who left, and they are adding a nurse practitioner, which would give the clinic increased capacity, Immiti said.

The two VA medical centers in New Jersey - one located in East Orange, and the other in Lyons in Somerset County - are “very, very short-staffed” of physicians, Immiti said, which could be caused by physician salary limits and/or by marketing towards physicians.

The hospitals’ affiliation with New Jersey medical schools has helped a great deal,

he added.

Beginning on June 6, 2019, under the Mission Act, veterans have more ways to access health care by making it easier for them to seek medical care by using a network of providers in the community, Kaneshiro said.

The White House has a VA hotline where veterans can report or make a complaint about their medical care. The number is 1-855-948-2311.

“The calls get filtered down to individual networks, and they get to us eventually so we can try to set things right, but it takes time,” Kaneshiro said.

After Congressman Kim toured the facility and spoke to several veterans he said he had a dual purpose for his visit to the James J. Howard Outpatient Clinic.

“I’m trying to make sure the VA stays on track with the dates for the new clinic to open in 2021,” he said.

Kim said he calls and meets with the VA on a

regular basis. “I have been told that that target will be met,” said Kim, who serves on the Armed Services Committee.

His second reason for coming to Brick was to make sure that veterans are getting quality care until the new clinic is opened, he said.

“The Office of Construction and Facilities Management in Washington D.C. is evaluating sites and evaluating bids for the new clinic, and will ask for our input, and then we’ll take a look at the sites and at where the veterans are,” Immiti said.

Hazlet veteran Jimmy Krause, 37, said he comes to the Brick clinic two to three times a week.

“I drive here for the extra services they offer for alternative therapies for mental health,” he said.

“Parking is a little difficult, and space is an issue, but the staff is amazing, especially for Iraq and Afghanistan combat veterans, he said.

Krause served in Iraq for a year during the initial invasion in 2003 and again in Afghanistan in 2006.

Continued From Page 1 Chosen Freeholders approved placing the question on the ballot.

The ballot question will read: “Shall the Ocean County Natural Lands Trust, which was approved and established by referendum in 1997, be expanded to permit use of the Trust Fund not only for open space preservation purposes and farmland preservation purposes, but also al low for t he a cqu isit ion , d e velo p m e nt a n d m a i nt e n a n c e fo r recreational and historic preservation purposes?”

According to Ocean County Freeholder Deputy Director John P. Kelly, the Natural Lands Trust currently only allows for Trust Fund money to be used to acquire and maintain land for the purpose of open space preservation or for the preservation of farmland.

“This is a very successful program,” Kelly said. “T h is proposed cha nge bu i ld s o n it s s u c c e s s by a l low i ng additional uses for the money specifically for recreational and historic preservation.”

In the past, the program has been useful in saving environmentally sensitive areas, in providing buffers for Joint Base McGuire, Dix Lakehurst and for curbing some development.

A nt hony Ag l iat a , O c e a n C ou nt y Plan ning Director, noted that many counties and municipalities that have open space prog rams allow for the

The Jackson Times, August 17, 2019, Page 5 funds to be used for recreational and h ist or ic pre se r vat ion pu r p ose s i ncluding almost all 15 municipalities in Ocean County that have an open space program.

“The Ocean County Natural Lands Tr u st Fu nd cu r re ntly al locat e s 1.2 cents per $100 of assessed land for the open space tax,” Agliata said. “There will be no increase to taxpayers. The question only expands the use of the existing Trust Fund.”

The Ocean County Nat ural Lands Trust Fund Advisory Committee was formally established in 1998 at which time general guidelines were developed for considering properties to be preserved. In order to be considered, a property must be formally nominated, purchased only from willing sellers, and the sale must have the approval of the local governing body.

In this way, the program was able to preserve the Forked River Mountains in Lacey Township, allowing it to remain in the public domain and as open space into perpetuity.

“This property totaling almost 8,000 acres is surrounded by thousands of acres of preserved land and was the l a r ge s t p r o p e r t y i n si n g le p r iv a t e ownership left in the county,” Haines said. “By expanding the scope of the open space program we can use some of the money to better maintain these properties and provide additional recreational opportunities to our citizens and visitors.”

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY F eAtuReD L etteR NJ Needs To Stop Funding Needy States On July 17, 2019 Kent uck y Se nat or R a nd Paul, blocked a bipartisan bill to make sure our September 11 Victims’ Fund never runs out of money. Senator Paul had no problem voting for tax cuts for the wealthy, which has created a huge deficit, but when it came to ensuring our heroes had funding he said “It has long been my feeling that we need to address our massive debt in the country.”

Aside from the unpat r iotic disgrace of the Senator’s lack of empathy and respect fo r o u r h e r o e s a n d neighbors, there is a hu ge i r ony i n R a nd Paul denying the funding for our heroes and neighbors. New Jersey (WE) literally fund his “welfare state” of Kentucky. New Jersey is a donor state that pays

way more in federal dollars than it gets in return: $0.61 for every dollar paid in to the federal gover n ment.

On the other hand, Kentucky gets $1.51.

If New Jersey got our fair share of tax dollars paid back, we would have plent y of money to fund our roads, schools, local heroes, etc. It’s time our leaders demand we get our fair share and stop funding greedy “welfare states’ like Kentucky. We can easily take care of our own!

We must urge our leaders, Senators Booker and Mendendez as well as our Congressional Representatives to demand New Jersey gets a fair share of our tax money back from the feds.

Letters To The Editor Why I’m Running For Mayor of Berkeley First, let me introduce myself. My name is Laura Shaw. I am a lifelong resident of Berkeley Township.

I grew up in the Belaire Park section of Bayville. As newlyweds in the 1980s my husband Jim and I bought our first house in the Cedar Beach section. In the 1990s, we bought our present home in the Holly Park section. I love my hometown. I could live anywhere, but I choose to live here. I’m proud and excited to be running for mayor of Berkeley Township.

When I tell people I’m running for office, the reaction is usually one of the two following questions: “Can you get me a job?” or “Why would you want to do that?”

This is my response to those two questions.

The first one is easy. No, I can’t get you a job. If I am elected mayor, I am not going to hire any friends and family. I have worked for several local governments for the last 18 years and I have seen up close the negative effects of nepotism.

In addition to competency issues, it is destructive to the morale of the other employees. We want productive, motivated employees who are qualified to do their jobs and will provide excellent service to the residents. Radical, I know, but I’m confident I can keep this promise.

The second question, the “why” is a little more complicated. As a government employee, I have had a front row seat to how towns work and how they are supposed to work, good, bad and ugly.

I enjoy working with the public and helping to solve problems. People tell me the mayor is a “thankless” job. I disagree. If your motivation is to improve the quality of life in your hometown, how can that be thankless?

I don’t buy into the cynicism that pervades our politics today. You can make things

Letters To The Editor better if you go into public with any questions, sugges- much better. service for the right reasons.

I am so lucky to have this opportunity and have three terrific running mates who feel, as I do, that as great as Berkeley is, we can do better. Years of one-party control and the resulting patronage have not produced any significant progress.

We have gone door to door and spoken with hundreds of residents and the same issues keep coming up.

Taxes have risen steadily.

There are two ways to provide tax relief: bring new businesses to town and cut expenses. We need to do both. We need to focus on commercial development on the Route 9 corridor. More restaurants, more stores, things for people to do.

When I grew up in Bayville, we had a movie theater and a bowling alley. Now we have neither. We need to focus on beautification as well. If we want to attract new businesses, we need to make Route 9 look more appealing.

Current and future expenses need to be examined. Can we share services on some items with neighboring towns and still provide excellent service?

We must go out to bid for every professional service contract, including attorneys, engineers and other professionals. Builders need to be held accountable for any construction flaws and issues with f looding and land grading. Paving projects need to be better coordinated with state and county road departments.

Purchase orders need to be carefully examined. When I can’t afford to buy something, I don’t buy it. I don’t ask my neighbors to pay for it. If elected, I will bring this fiscally conservative mindset to our hometown.

In closing I would like to thank the voters and residents of Berkeley Township for all the positive feedback and suggestions I have received since becoming a candidate. Please feel free to reach out to me via e-mail at lauraeshaw@comcast.net

tions or concerns you may have. I am humbled and grateful for the chance to participate in the electoral process. I hope you will consider voting for me and my running mates in November to bring fresh ideas, expertise and perspective to our beautiful hometown.

Barnegat Mayor Abuses His Position At the Barnegat Township Committee meeting, Mayor Al Cirulli took over the meeting to espouse his homophobic, fear-mongering beliefs that the inclusion of the political, economic and social contributions of the disabled and LGBTQ communities in school curricula would “indoctrinate” the students of Barnegat.

There is much evidence that demonstrates that information is valuable, not detrimental, to creating an inclusive, open and caring community.

More importantly, this is a clear abuse of his elected position as a Committee member and as Mayor. The scripture quotes and statements such as, “God would hold politicians accountable for passing such laws,” are also a violation of the separation of church and state and have no business in a township meeting.

Equally disturbing was the silence that ensued from most of the other Committee members sitting there on the dais with Cirulli. John Novak spoke in support of Cirulli’s comments while Linda Kropf, Pat Pipi and incumbent Al Bille, up for re-election in November, sat there silently. Silence means consent. You all had a chance to do the right thing and you chose to sit there. I can only hope that the people of Barnegat recognize that the current Township Committee is not inclusive, does not value all equally and that the residents deserve better,

Editor’s note: This letter writer is running for election against Cirulli and Bille.

Mueller’s Report A Scam Although Molinari’s letter re. the Mueller report is very descriptive its composition, number of pages, and even the color of its cover, he misses the point.

Unfortunately for people of his mindset, we DID read the Mueller report, so the b.s. emanating from its believers of its fiction has not taken hold. It is also so far out of the loop, knowing what we now have seen about the issue.

Mueller’s investigation was not made to “exonerate” Trump, nor fi nd him guilty or not guilty. It was to find out if he had broken any laws or committed any crimes. He didn’t. Mueller’s duty was to report that and not make a political statement. As we have learned now, and will learn even more in the future, this entire exercise was a politically instigated, criminal fraud perpetrated upon Trump and the American people, by a weaponized DOJ, CIA, FBI, and other government agencies. They will be held to account for their criminality as we also shall see.

After spending over 20 million on a scam that they all knew was false, and had no evidence of, Mueller couldn’t even be honest enough to accurately and truthfully report his negative findings. Being the consummate, DC political hack, he left “questions” open and created doubtful controversy so as to prevent the closure of his folly. He left that “grenade with the pin pulled” in the room because he is apparently as corrupt as those who hired him. Fun times are ahead as “The Reckoning” looms.

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

Bill Would Provide $1.8 Billion For Autism Programs WASHI NGTON, D.C. - Bipar tisan, bicameral legislation to powerfully support and aggressively pursue durable remedies and effective inter ventions for the 1.5 million children with autism was approved unanimously by the U.S. House of Representatives.

Authored by Rep. Chris Smith (NJ-04), with chief Democrat cosponsor, Rep. Mike Doyle (PA-14), The Autism CA R ES Act of 2019 prov ide s sl ig htly more than $1.8 billion over five years “for America’s whole-of-government Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) initiative” lead by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Centers for Disease Control and P reve nt ion (CDC) a nd the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA).

Smith’s bill also helps adults with autism who he said a re “a re of t e n misdiagnosed, underdiagnosed and overlooked.

Lang uage th roughout the bill emphasizes that causes, diagnosis, detec-

tion, prevention and treatment of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) must be throughout the lifespan of a person. According to D rexel Un ive r sit y’s AJ Drexel Autism Center, about fifty to sixty thousand children “age out” to adulthood each year creating challenges for education, housing, employment and access to health care,” he said.

Smith thanked the more than 35 non-governmental organizations that have endorsed his legislation and called on the Senate for speedy passage.

E xc e r p t s f r o m Re p.

Sm it h’s st at e me nt follows: “Mr. Speaker, this bipartisan, bicameral legislation powerfully supports and pursues durable remedies and effective interventions for the approximately 1.5 million children with ASD, - that is an estimated 1 in 59 ch ild ren i n t he Un ited States, in my home State of New Jersey, 1 in 34 children, the highest rate in the CDC study.

number of students with autism and wanted action, especially for their son Austin and daughter Alana, so I invited the CDC, ATSDR and other Federal agencies to Brick for an investigation, only to learn that prevalence rates were high not only in Brick, but in nearby communities as well.

Seaside Heights Offering Weekday Beach Badge Early-Bird Special SEASIDE HEIGHTS – Seaside Heights is offering an end-of-summer “Get To The Beach” early bird special now through August 29.

Beach goers can purchase an adult wristband (12 years-of-age and older) from any beach cashier booth 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday for only $4.00. That’s 50 percent off the regular price of $8.00 per wristband. The discount is on cash purchases only and is not available through the Viply smartphone app.

According to Seaside Heights Mayor Anthony Vaz, “Fortunately, our beach attendance has been very good this summer, so we have the ability to partner with local businesses to offer this “Get To The Beach” beach discount. As the summer winds down and families prepare for school, we want to encourage people to visit the Seaside Heights beach one more time!” Mayor Vaz said.

The borough has partnered with parking lots and other businesses to offer early birds even more discounts during the same 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. time. Parking is one-half price at 1400 Ocean Terrace, 16 Hamilton Ave, and 9 Ocean Terrace. Pay $5 to park at 715 Boulevard.

In addition, early birds will pay one-half price

for beach chair and umbrella rentals at the Hancock Ave, Blaine Ave, Sumner Ave, and Franklin Ave beach accessories rental booths on the beach. When beach goers receive their half-price wristband, they should ask the cashier for a discount brochure containing even more savings at participating restaurants, amusements and retail stores.

Details of the Get To The Beach early bird specials may be found at exit82.com/earlybird.

Military service men and women, veterans, and their spouses and children are free every day on the Seaside Heights beach. And there are also special discount days: Aug. 13, for Dad & Me Day, and Aug. 20 for Bring a Friend Day. The Seaside Heights beach has been voted Ocean County’s Favorite Beach for four consecutive years in the NJ Sea Grant annual ratings.

The son, Gadi, wants to donate a kidney to save his father’s life. The transplant committee objects, claiming that the father, Rueben, does not have the right to authorize such an invasive procedure.

Gadi is afraid of losing his father and feels he finally has a chance to do something meaningful; to become a man; to stand on his own. Watch as Gadi sets out to fight for the right to save his father’s life.

The second screening will be held on Sunday, August 25 at 7 p.m. THE LIGHT OF HOPE is the true story of a young Red Cross nurse, Elizabeth Eidenbenz, in the

But soon, threats from within and without take shape. It is a haunting story that will resonate with you.

ARounD tHe JeRsey sHoRe Summer Blood Drive Celebration for Life JACKSON – On Thursday, August 22, 2019, the Knights of Columbus at St Monica’s Church will host their summer Celebration for Life blood drive. The event will be hosted from 3–8 p.m. located at 679 W. Veterans Hwy in Jackson.

Every day, every 2 seconds, someone needs a blood transfusion due to illness, treat an injury or during surgery. The blood on the shelf is what supplies that need. Since there is no artificial substitute for blood, without people donating daily, we would simply run out of blood.

According to the NJ State Department of Health, while 60 percent of the people in NJ are eligible to donate, only 3.6 percent actually do. Summer is often a difficult time for blood collections due to vacations and summer activities placing the blood

supply in critical condition.

Donors are encouraged to schedule a blood donation appointment by following the link: donor.cbsblood.org/donor/ schedules/drive_ schedule/50535. Walk ins are welcome to participate in this summer event and the Knight of Columbus welcome all eligible members of the community to join them on August 22.

Vitalant Blood Services is proud to be a partner in this Celebration for Life. All donors must be 17 years of age (16 year olds may donate with parental consent, forms are available at the blood drive), weigh 110 pounds and feel healthy and well the day of donation.

To fi nd out more about Vitalant or to check eligibility requirements log onto vitalant.org and click the DONATE button.

ARounD tHe JeRsey sHoRe NJ Awards Funding For “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” Crackdown

By Kimberly Bosco OCEAN COUNTY – We all know the phrase by now: “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over.”

In an effort to crack down on drunk and impaired drivers with the national “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” initiative, the Division of Highway Traffic Safety awarded grants totaling more than $540,000 to local law enforcement agencies throughout the state.

One hundred and ten law enforcement agencies in NJ received funds to staff saturation patrols and sobriety checkpoints during the campaign, which runs from August 16 through September 3.

In Ocean County, three $5,500 grants were awarded to Berkeley Township, Jackson Township and Seaside Heights. In Monmouth County, five $5,500 grants were awarded to Allentown, Brielle, Eatontown, Middletown, and Howell.

More than 300 additional agencies, including the New Jersey State Police, are expected to join the annual statewide traffic safety effort aimed at reducing highway crashes.

“The risks of driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol are enormous and the consequences are tragic,” said Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal.

“With rideshare apps and other forms of public

transportation readily available, there’s no excuse for anyone to get behind the wheel impaired.”

Statistics show that in 2017, driving while under the influence of either alcohol or drugs was a contributing factor in more than 25 percent of the 591 fatal crashes that occurred on New Jersey roadways. Those 158 alcohol/drug-related crashes killed 174 people. During a five-year period between 2013 and 2017, 678 individuals were killed in alcohol-related crashes in the state.

“Impaired driving remains one of the biggest traffic safety threats in New Jersey and combatting it is a year-round priority in our state,” said Eric Heitmann, Director of the Division of Highway Traffic Safety. “As we head into the final weeks of summer and the busy Labor Day driving weekend, our officers will be stepping up those efforts, working longer hours and increasing sobriety checks to keep intoxicated drivers off the road.

If you’re out there driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, the odds are we’re going to stop you and arrest you.”

Last year, the Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign yielded over 1,196 impaired driving arrests, 4,764 speeding summonses, and 3,194 seat belt citations.

Hoof & Hound

Erin Masur is a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine in her third year of practice, and first year as the owner of Hoof & Hound, LLC. Her mobile veterinary practice specifi cally caters to livestock species: sheep, goats, alpacas, pigs, poultry, and cattle.

Dr. Masur is proud to be from the Garden State - a state with deep agricultural roots. Our great state is experiencing a renewed passion for homesteading and raising livestock. It’s important that both our first generation farmers and our veteran farmers have access to veterinary medicine and surgery that makes sense for their farm. Dr. Masur strives to be an asset to every farm’s management plan, whether that farm is a herd of one, or a herd of one hundred.

Dr. Masur spent her first years in practice working on all species, including dogs and cats. Although she has departed the traditional clinic setting, she firmly believes in housecall hospice services. In-home euthanasia ensures that the passing of your pet does not have to be any harder than it already is.

The peace that we wish for our pets can be undermined by a car ride to the clinic and the bright lights of the treatment room. With in-home euthanasia, you choose where and how your family says their final goodbye - whether it’s on their favorite couch or under their favorite tree.

Whether you need a livestock vet on your farm, or a hospice vet at your home, call Hoof & Hound at 848-224-5046 or email hoofhoundnj@gmail.com.

Inside The Law RIPPED OFF? NOW WHAT?

that govern your business.

Accordingly, they are strictly liable for committing consumer fraud.

The purpose of the Act is to encourage private attorneys Michael J. Deem to represent consumers in disputes that involve small damages otherwise consumers would not be able to obtain representation. The defendant is required to pay the successful consumer’s attorney’s fees and costs.

AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION IS WORTH A POUND OF CURE When you deal with a home-improvement contractor or other seller, try to limit the amount that you make as a down payment. The more money that pay a contractor upfront, the greater the risk they will delay the job, not return to finish the work, or not make corrections. There have been many stories where a contractor took a deposit and never returned to start the job or only did a little work and never returned.

When purchasing a used car, you should always get a CARFAX and you should always take the vehicle to your trusted mechanic and have it tested.

Make sure that any verbal representations that are made by the dealer are put in writing. Always read the agreement! Many times, the agreements contain paragraphs that limit the liability of the seller, require you to give up consumer protection rights, or say things that are completely opposite from that which the seller has verbally promised.

Although “Buyer Beware” is not the law in New Jersey, not reading or understanding the terms of the agreement you sign is no defense—the seller is not required to explain the agreement and you cannot rely on the verbal representations when entering into a written contract.

The litigation attorneys at the Law Offices of R.C. Shea & Associates handle most consumer fraud claims on a contingency basis. A contingency means if there is no recovery, there is no fee. Call us for a free consultation: 732-505-1212.

Our clients’ success is our greatest reward.

Robert C. Shea Esq.

By: Michael J, Deem Robert C. Shea, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates Have you been ripped off by a car dealer, a home improvement contractor or some other business?

Remember, there is no such thing as a “free lunch.”

Anytime someone tries to sell you something, you should take everything they say with a grain of salt.

This is particularly true when you purchase a car, buy a home, hire someone to remodel your house, pay for any other type of goods and/or services, and particularly where you are entering into some type of written agreement.

Unfortunately, we live in a society today where some businesses make claims or representations that turn out not to be true or omit to tell you an important item, for example, that an automobile has been in a severe prior accident or a home has a wet basement. Make no mistake, fraud is rampant in New Jersey. The Division of Consumer Affairs reports that the largest source of complaints concern car dealers and home improvement contractors. However there are other dishonest businesses that rip off consumers for small amounts of money – which add up to a lot of profits for the business.

When the amount is small, you may think that your damages are too small to hire an attorney and may not be worth the time to do something about it.

THE NEW JERSEY CONSUMER FRAUD ACT Fortunately, New Jersey has a remedy – the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act- is the strongest consumer protection law in the nation. If you have been the victim of a misrepresentation, deception, fraud, false pretense or the omission of an important material fact, you may be entitled to three times your damages plus payment of your attorney’s fees by the defendant business if you have suffered the loss of money.

The Consumer Fraud Act covers almost every sale of merchandise and services. The purpose of the Act is to promote honesty and fair dealing in the marketplace. For example, any affirmative misrepresentation by a seller results in liability regardless of whether the representation was made in good faith or negligently. Businesses are presumed to have a superior knowledge of the goods and services that they sell as well as superior knowledge of the laws and regulations

Dear Joel, Summer isn’t even over yet and we’ve already gotten our school supply list from my son’s new teacher. I’ve started looking around, and was disheartened at how expensive fulfilling this list is going to be. Do you have suggestions as to how I can save some money and still make sure my son has all that he needs to have a great school year?

upwards of $200 per student. For electronics such as calculators and computers, I would suggest resale sites like Facebook Marketplace, letgo, etc. for gently used but fully functional items. For the basics such as notebooks, paper, pencils, etc., I would recommend buying in bulk at stores like BJs, Costco, etc. and splitting with other parents.

Answer: It seems like Summer gets shorter every year, and back to school shopping starts earlier.

Shopping for school supplies can be fun for students, and expensive for their parents, costing

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

Better Hearing Q & A Our patients always have great questions about hearing and hearing technology. We feel it’s our obligation as the community’s only AudigyCertified practice to provide you more than exceptional hearing care and technology recommendations; we are here to give you the informative answers you’re looking for so you can confidently make educated decisions about your hearing health.

Question - I’ve seen devices called “personal sound amplifiers,” or PSAs, advertised on TV. Are they the same as hearing aids?

Answer - No, they are not. Personal sound amplifiers are quite different from hearing aids. These devices shouldn’t be used in the place of an expertly tuned hearing aid fit by a licensed hearing professional. Personal sound amplifiers were created to amplify

sounds during recreational activities like hunting and bird watching, not to alleviate a hearing problem. Since their specific function is to make sounds louder, personal sound amplifiers can actually be harmful to your hearing. Unlike properly fit hearing aids, personal sound amplifiers cannot adapt to environmental sounds. Loud sounds will just get louder, potentially causing serious damage to your hearing.

Call for a free technology demonstration - Our practice offers the latest, most effective hearing aid technology available.

And our experience in fitting and adjusting hearing aids means we can fine-tune them to respond to the way you live your life.

Only a properly fit hearing instrument can do this, and this is what our hearing care providers do best.

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

You Can Order Your Own Lab Tests Now

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

I am thrilled to tell you that you can test yourself for pretty much anything! It’s absolutely fantastic and quickly puts you on the track to better health!

In the old days, if you wanted to check something, you had to make an appointment with the doctor, wait a week, drive over, request the test you want, or hope the pertinent one is offered, and then go to a lab somewhere else, probably on another day because you needed to fast. Then you’d wait another week for results!

Today you can order your own tests from many labs nationwide, either online, or by going directly to the laboratory or local hospital where these are offered. Call in advance. I just did it the other day to test the theory before writing this. I went to the local hospital’s out-patient laboratory on a Thursday (quiet time). I ordered a ferritin and TIBC test for iron, filled out a simple form, provided a driver’s license, and had blood drawn within minutes. I was in and out the door in 8 minutes!

Typically results are made available on your lab’s secure website or they can be picked up. If you’re buying a test online the website should begin with https, not http in the URL, to keep your credit card information secure.

Here are 2 options: RequestaTest.com.

WalkinLabs.com.

You can call Quest as well, they are nationwide or go online to QuestDirect.com Even if you need a local lab or a phlebotomist, you can arrange that pretty easily as well, just

visit anylabtestnow.com to find a location near you. There’s also Phlebotomy Services International and you can visit phlebotomyservices.com.

Advantages 1. It’s convenient because some tests for urine, saliva or feces are conducted from home, and you mail samples back to the lab in pre-paid envelopes.

2. It’s private, which is useful for drug/alcohol testing or gene testing … even STDs. 3. Self-pay pricing is dramatically reduced.

Monitoring your PT, ferritin, A1c and cholesterol just got a whole lot cheaper!

4. Get well quicker! Ordering highly specialized tests can reveal the missing link, and therefore speed healing for chronic situations that haven’t responded to conventional treatments. Aren’t you tired of doing the same thing with no results?

There are disadvantages which I outline in the longer version of my article which you will receive over email. Join my online community which is almost 200,000 people strong, and decide to get all the longer versions of my articles. Tuesday is Suze-day, lol, and that’s when you get my newsletter which also includes specialized lab tests now available. Sign up at suzycohen.com.

One disadvantage is that you get an abnormal test result. What do you do?

Obviously, you will need guidance from your practitioner, but I even have a useful workaround for that! And specialty tests that are extraordinary in their scope, and exclusive to specialty labs (which you can now purchase yourself).

JCP&L Tips To Beat The Summer Heat

With the summer heat upon us, JCP&L is prepared to meet the anticipated increase in customer electricity usage that comes with a heat wave. Our system is designed and maintained to operate safely and efficiently even when temperatures soar, and our crews have reviewed hot weather operational procedures to ensure any power outages are handled promptly.

JCP&L offers some common-sense hot weather tips customers can follow to stay comfortable while using electricity wisely during this period of high demand: • Set thermostats as high as comfort will allow.

Every degree a customer can increase the temperature in their home will result in using about 3 percent less energy during the hottest summer days.

• During sunny weather, close drapes or blinds on windows facing the sun to prevent direct radiant heating from impacting interior temperatures.

• Use fans – moving air cools skin faster, resulting in greater comfort on hot days.

• Use a programmable thermostat to keep temperatures higher when no one is home, and to reduce the temperature before arrival back home.

• Only operate window air conditioners when someone is in the room.

• Keep refrigerators and freezers as full as possible.

Frozen or cold items in the refrigerator help keep other items cool, reducing the amount of work the refrigerator has to do to maintain a lower temperature.

• Close rooms that aren’t used regularly during the summer, and close the air conditioning vents in those rooms, as well.

• Avoid using heat-producing appliances during the hottest hours of the day. The less heat produced at home, the less work the air conditioner will do.

• Consider investing in ENERGY STAR® appliances or heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. JCP&L may offer rebates on these purchases and tax deductions may apply, as well.

• Check air conditioner and furnace fan filters.

Clogged filters waste energy and money by forcing HVAC systems to work harder than necessary.

In addition, if summer storms result in downed wires it is important to avoid the area and immediately call JCP&L. If you see a downed power line, always assume it is live and dangerous. Report downed power lines immediately by calling 1-888-LIGHTSS (888-544-4877). Extra caution should be exercised in areas where downed wires may be tangled in downed tree branches or other debris.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of aug 17 - aug 23

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Conversations with friends might be inspiring or spur your imagination. In the upcoming week you might be empowered by a loved one’s ideas or insights to make your mark in your career or job.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): This is not be the right time to start an extreme diet, as your self-discipline could be really tested in the week to come. Better results would come with gradual long-term changes in nutritional habits.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You excel at finding practical solutions for financial problems because your mental prowess is enhanced at this time. In the week to come you may be more concerned with business than with love.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Stay abreast of news and trends. Show you can be an excellent businessperson by being on top of the latest data. In the week ahead show good taste and spend your money for things you need or want.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Start the week off with a bang rather than a whimper.

Approach your work or a project with a fearless and fierce attitude and you will make headway. Friends will support your efforts.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Keep conversations fresh and relevant by having plenty of inspiring stories on hand. As the week unfolds, your wits will grow sharper and it will be easier to put your best ideas into action.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You may be content to gaze into one another’s eyes for the moment. It is wonderful just to hold hands, but handholding could possibly lead to something more intense as the week progresses.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Expand your horizons and be prepared to let go of what no longer serves you well. In the week to come use the opportunities and insights that arise to rid yourself of outworn ideas, attitudes and habits.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Share inspiring stories that will brighten conversations and uplift spirits. In the upcoming week it can be profitable to join forces with others to mastermind a wealth of new ideas.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In the week ahead don’t be pressured into making a decision before you have the clarity to be sure it is the right one. Romantic meetings may occur, but it may take time to break an impasse first.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You can be completely absorbed in your home and family this week yet still be a go-getter when your career is involved. Share something pleasing but sensible with loved ones.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Make your workplace a happy hub of industry; use your ability to be sympathetic and compassionate to win friends and strengthen alliances. Adventures of the amorous kind might make the upcoming week memorable.
