The figures in this article were from November 11. The Board of Elections had until November 10 to accept mail-in votes, Ocean County Clerk Scott Colabella said. They only accepted ballots post marked by 8 p.m. on November 3.

After that, the provisional ballots were to be checked. These are ballots people fill out at the polls. They have to be compared against mailins to make sure people didn’t vote twice.

Local WWII Vet Tells His Story

By Bob Vosseller TOMS RIVER – He may be 95, but his drive is strong, his memories are vivid and his quips are sharp and humorous. Thomas Connizzo recently ref lected on his time serving in the U.S. Marines during World War II. Con nizzo, a resi-

dent of Ortley Beach was joined by family members, friends and American Legion Post Commander William P. Kevish recently where he shared his service record on video for inclusion in a special tribute program by the Bristol Myers pharmaceutical company.

Kevish said that the post is proud to have Connizzo as a member and was pleased that Bristol Myers had chosen him among the many U.S. Marine veterans to be showcased in the firm’s salute to veterans of America series.

Speaking about his time in training, he

said, “I went to Paris Island which is where I started. We had the Califor nia Marines.

They were the elite. We had a lot of hardships.

We lived in a tent for most of the time until we were ready to go into combat. We had a lot of rain and you never stayed dry in the

coral rocks and you needed two pair of shoes because the coral rocks were so sharp that they could cut your shoes apart. It was mostly uncomfortable at the time.”

The Battle of Peleliu, code named Operation Stalemate II by the United States Military was fought between the U.S. and Japan during the Mariana and Palau Campaign from September to November 1944 on the island of Peleliu. American forces lost 2,336 men with 8,450 wounded while Japanese forces lost 10,695 men with 202 captured - 19 were Japanese soldiers and 183 were foreign laborers. Seventeen tanks were also lost by the Japanese.

U.S. Marines of the 1st Marine Division, and the U.S. Army’s 81st Infantry Division fought to seize an airstrip on the small coral island.

“Like everything else, we had to get over that hurdle. I didn’t serve anywhere else.

That was enough. We lost more men there then we did in the whole Pacific because it was such a small island. I only passed by Iwo Jima. I wasn’t there much at all because that wasn’t our area of fighting,” Connizzo added.

Connizzo spoke with emotion about losing his best friend early on during his time in service. “He was a good buddy of mine who had a wife and two boys. He was one of only a few men who died straight away and it was a great hardship because I had lost one of my best friends. We had been in boot camp together and Paris Island and we did a lot before we got into the combat area.”

someone or something. He responded saying that what he remembered most “was the men I served with. Most of them had come from the draft. They had taken a lot of men.”

Connizzo, who earned the rank of corporal, did not remain in the military after the war but he wanted to. “I wanted to stay but my father needed me. We had six kids and my mother had adopted another child. Her sister had died and she adopted her sister’s child and so we became seven.”

He said, “my father did not believe in welfare. He said I can’t take nothing for nothing.

I have to work. My father did all kinds of odd jobs to earn a living and he was a brick layer and he worked for everybody to put food on the table.”

Connizzo transitioned out of the military to help support his family and later went to work in a shoe factory “and became what was known as the heeler. I put heels on shoes.

I used to put a kind of cement on the shoe to attach it. If you inhaled it by mistake, you got high,” he said with a laugh. “I also worked in the sanitation department.”

“He also worked for the Post Office for many years. He worked at Gracy Station in Manhattan and was a supervisor,” his daughter Toni Cieplensky said.

“I lived in Harlem when I was a kid. Later we moved to the Bronx which was a subway ride away from Manhattan,” Connizzo added.

“When he moved us all to New Jersey we all thought we were in a foreign country,” Cieplensky said.

Connizzo is proud of his Italian heritage.

“My father came from Italy and could not

speak or read English very well. He had no one to teach him. He would write letters to his family in Italy and he told us one day we would go to Italy. Well, I got to Italy and I loved it. This is the best country in the world but Italy is a place you must see.”

His daughter said during the flight to Italy “they learned he was a World War II veteran and the pilot came out and they let him sit in the cockpit and gave him wings.”

“My son (Al Connizzo) and daughter are always there to help me. They are my right arm and legs,” Connizzo said. “They do everything for me. The American Legion here made me an honorary member. I am also a member of the Marine Corps League which is an organization that is part of the Marine Corps.”

“In his entire life we never heard anything about his time in the service,” his daughter said while observing the interview. She said that only through friends had he started to open up about his past service in World War II. He will be featured in a video project as part of the profiles in courage according to Operations and Engagement Manager Mary Kate Rogers of Bristol Myers Veterans Community Network Work Place Pillar. Connizzo’s friend Lou Terranova, a U.S. Army veteran who served in Vietnam, alerted the company about Connizzo in reference to their project.

Connizzo will also be profiled in a segment by his friend Bob Steigelman, a fellow Marine, on the Facebook page of the Friends of Ortley Beach group as part of a Veterans Day tribute. Those who join the page can view the segment.

“I would put my life in his hands at any time,” he added. He did not wish to speak further on the details of his friend’s death.

“He stuck to me and I stuck to him like glue.

At one time they called us “Ham and Cheese because that is what went together.”

Connizo joined the U.S. Marines at the age of 17. He said, “there was a draft on and a draft is when the government is hard up for men so they push them on into the service. I told my father if I die, I want to die home. My father said in Italian ‘the water’ so I said I’ll join the Marine Corps. I said if I die, I want to die with some of my friends. My father thought the Marines was part of the Navy.

I said no pop the Marines and I got him to understand more.”

On November 10, 2020 the U.S. Marines marked their 245th anniversary.

Connizzo has a book featuring many early photos of himself with his wife and children and they include photos of his time in the service and scenes around the Pacific theater.

“I was a rifleman. Your rifle was your best friend. You went to bed with it. You couldn’t leave it out of your sight. We had sergeants and non-commissioned officers who used to make sure that you were sleeping with your rifle because if you had to go into combat suddenly, you had to have your rifle with you,” the Marine veteran said.

When asked what the word veteran means to him, Connizzo responded, “A veteran is someone who has served in any branch of service, who fought for this country and to this day is still serving America.”

He was also asked his recollection of being part of a team that had a positive impact on

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY Letters To The Editor

E DITORIAL Election Lies Continue – Don’t Spread Them Do you know how your parents always told you to tell the truth? That works online, too.

We’re only given one mouth so we can only say half of what we hear.

At least, that’s how the saying goes. Whoever came up with that saying couldn’t have predicted social media, where all it takes is one finger to push a button and share false information to hundreds of your friends.

And with thousands of messages being broadcast at you daily, it can be overwhelming. But I’m asking you to close your eyes, breathe, and try not to be part of the problem.

Although officially, the election is over, the electioneering has continued.

Everyone is sharing bits of information online and falsehoods abound. Just because someone says something, it doesn’t mean it’s true. Remember how easy rumors spread in high school. We’re not much different now, no matter how many years older we are. Rumors spread easily and it’s our job to ignore them. We all have a part in taking out the trash.

Therefore, I’m asking each and every one of you to be very, very careful with what “news” you

consume and share via social media.

There are still a lot of lies being circulated. The Powers That Be can simply throw a bunch of words and an image together and people think it’s gospel.

People don’t question a statement if it’s something they want to believe. So I’m asking you to challenge your assumptions.

Don’t accept something just because it’s easy.

Don’t absorb information passively. We’ve gotten into the habit of just scrolling Facebook and barely thinking about what we see. Question the message that is being beamed at you through your phone.

There are rich people out there investing millions of dollars to manipulate you. They don’t care about the truth. They just want your support and they’ll say anything they want to get it.

Don’t waste your time reading articles or watching videos unless you know it is from a legitimate news source. It’s not worth poisoning your mind with falsehoods and empty rhetoric.

And for all of our sanity, don’t share something unless you know it is true.

Republican Revolutionaries It seems obvious that the Republican Party does not believe in democracy in general, nor American Democracy in particular. Voting is acceptable to them only if it results in victory for themselves.

How long can this Republican insurrection go on before it turns bloody?

Donald Trump’s contempt for Constitutional Law is absolute. His army of allies is now supporting him even to the point of treason. How spectacular a fall from civic virtue, rule of law and decency itself!

It is becoming more and more difficult to predict which of his mesmerized toadies will become Second-in-Command in America’s Fourth Reich, as so many as vying for the job.

Probably Mitch McConnell, although Lindsey Graham, Bill Barr and several other admirers remain in the running.

Biden Has History Of Mistakes Fits the definition of Career Politician and Swamp Creature. 47 years in Congress with no major accomplishments. A big zero. He did manage to oppose Reagan on every foreign policy initiative.

If Biden had had his way back in the Eighties, we would still have a cold war going on with the Soviet Union. The military buildup ruined the Soviet economy, and Biden was dead set against Reagan’s military buildup. Biden was one of the Senators who when Reagan was elected, sent envoys to the Soviet Union to reassure them that the U.S. didn’t want a war, and that they need not worry about Reagan, because they would work to neutralize his policy initiatives.

The trade deals that Biden worked on resulted in China becoming a manufacturing powerhouse, and sending tens of thousands of American jobs overseas. Obama’s Secretary of Defense Robert Gates says that Biden has been on the wrong side of every major foreign policy matter in the last four decades. That is a damning indictment of Biden’s shortsightedness and ineptitude.

Biden is NOT the right man for the job of president!

Louis Schnitzer New Jersey

Trump’s Election Challenge Is Fake Trump knows he lost. He lost the popular vote by more than 5 million votes.

He lost the electoral vote.

In battleground states, he lost by so much that there’s no way a recount could save him.

But that’s not the point.

The point is to create chaos. He wants to create doubt in our election process. He wants us to doubt the will of the people. He wants us to doubt that a boring old Democrat and a woman of color could ever beat him.

He wants us to doubt our own eyes and ears.

The point is to challenge the news. He wants the only words you hear to come from his mouth. It’s no secret that Don Jr. and Kim Guilfoyle are making moves to take over the Republican party. He wants total control.

The point is to constantly be in the public eye.

He wants everyone to be talking about him, focused on what he’ll do next. Even though he’s 0-12 in all the legal challenges he’s made so far.

He spent four years being the center of attention and not doing anything for anyone else. Did you really think that would change?

Simon Hall Howell

Selfish Habits Making COVID Worse In regards to the resurgence of COVID-19, we all messed up ourselves. Governor Murphy did the best he could under the circumstances but it was bound to increase. It’s way harder to backtrack all the stuff we did. And to be quite frank, NJ and more importantly America, had no care to fix this virus.

This is a selfish country with even more selfish people in it. I’ve seen the same people who crucified people for going outside and enjoying socially distant activities now be the first ones lined up to do indoor dining or go to a Halloween party.

They let the restrictions off too quickly and NJ folks took advantage of it.

I’m all for another lock down because I’m still seeing A BOATLOAD of more Georgia, Florida, and Virginia plates than I’ve ever seen in my entire life. And I’m willing to bet they’re bringing a lot of it over. (Not to mention the hot spot on Staten Island).

With the holidays coming up I can’t imagine things getting easier but I don’t think a lockdown will happen only because it won’t do much since people are coming into the state in troves anyway and don’t really give a singular damn about at risk people.

Robert Collins Brick

Relief That Biden Won Never have I felt this collective sigh of relief from so many, for something that I know many have taken for granted at one point or another.

To vote seems so easy, and

so many don’t...but the masses have made the choice to use democracy and keep it.

There is healing and hope in the air again. The voices of the people have been heard, and democracy has not been completely eroded. People of so many differing groups have shed so many tears and today we have some happy tears.

I am not a Democrat, I am not a Republican. I am an American, who fears the hate and division, and is so thankful today that a person who can move us forward has come out on top. He wants to govern Americans and bring the country together. I only continue to hope that others will allow it to bring them along.

There is no easy answer, but humanity and democracy is a start. We have chosen to keep it!

Melissa Wilson Toms River

See Through The Lies Of Democrat Party The Democrats have kept the violent rioting going.

The Democrats want a cash free society. The Democrats are the one that want to take the guns away so they can control the people, after these riots who would not want a gun?

The Democrats are censoring what people think and say. The Democrats own all the news stations; you think you are getting two sides to any story? No, you’re getting what they want to give you.

The Democrats wants this great country of ours to be a Socialist Communist country. If you can’t see that, you are the one drinking the Kool-Aid. Bill Taylor Whiting

Continued From Page 1 Park. The Fulfill Benefits Bus brings services directly to people in need while doing so in a COVID-safe way.

The Benefits Bus includes three socially distant workstations with plexiglass protection. Once the bus is parked, a “slide” mechanism on the bus makes the space wide enough to allow at least six feet between the workstations. The bus also has a ventilation system, running water, heat, a restroom, and a chair lift.

All bus team members will register families for SNAP (food stamps), affordable health care, and Medicaid. They also aid with tax preparation, affordable housing applications, budgeting and money management, utility expenses, and senior services.

“Fulfill’s mission is to end hunger in our community. But simply feeding the hungry does not address the long-term root of hunger. We believe connecting our neighbors in need to services that can improve their overall situation is key to breaking the cycle of poverty, and as such, hunger.

Many of our clients do not drive, and there is no public transportation to our building, so it is crucial that we bring these services to their doorstep while keeping everyone safe,” said Fulfill CEO and President Kim Guadagno.

Feeding America CEO Claire Babineaux-Fontenot talked to the crowd via Zoom from a jumbotron screen. “As more people are turning to food banks for help, it is imperative that we connect them to all the resources available to get them back on their feet quickly. We are excited to join Fulfill today to launch the Benefits Bus and reach as many families as possible,”

said Babineaux-Fontenot. Fulfill was able to purchase and retrofit the bus thanks to a Feeding America COVID relief grant.

Carole Johnson, the Commissioner of New Jersey’s Department of Human Services, was also present at the launch of the Benefits Bus and expressed how the bus would benefit families. “These are challenging times for New Jerseyans, which is why Fulfill’s Benefits Bus is a game-changer in meeting people where they are and helping to connect families to food assistance, medical assistance and much more,” Commissioner Johnson said. “NJ Human Services will continue to use all available levers to get as much assistance to families as possible, but we can only do that in partnership with community leaders like Fulfill. Thanks to former Lieutenant Governor Guadagno, the Fulfill SNAP outreach team, and the frontline workforce that works every day to not only meet families’ emergency food needs, but to enroll folks in benefit programs that can offer consistent help. The Benefits Bus is a creative way to increase access to the vital Human Services’ assistance programs that help families stay fed, safe, and healthy.”

Curtis Moreland, the President of “From Jersey with Love” hosted the Benefits Bus event outside his pantry on Dewitt Avenue.

This pantry is one of roughly 300 feeding agencies Fulfill has in Monmouth and Ocean Counties.

If you live in Monmouth or Ocean County, you are eligible for these free, confidential services provided at the Benefits Bus. To make an appointment, call 732-643-5888 or email services@fulfillnj.org. To board the Benefits Bus, all clients must have their temperature checked, answer a safety questionnaire, and wear a mask.

The clerks will certify the election results on November 23.

During their campaign the three Republican incumbents said in a joint statement that one of the most pressing issues that the mayor and council are currently facing is overdevelopment. “It is important that we maintain our quality of life in Manchester Township. One of the best ways of limiting development is by purchasing open space.

They said, “by using existing open space funds, we can purchase large parcels of property and preserve them forever without increasing taxes. This is what we did for the 25 acres we recently purchased off Ridgeway Road.

“This property could have potentially resulted on over 50 new homes being developed. Instead, this property is now preserved forever from development,” they added.

They also expressed the need to attract new businesses to the township. “We need to work hard to attract businesses to both commercial corridors along Route 70 and Route 37 and to the Whiting section. We recently approved several redevelopment projects that will result in new commercial businesses opening in town,” the joint statement added.

They also noted that “in constituting our Master Plan Review Committee, our goal is to sit down with business leaders and discuss what we as elected officials need to do to attract businesses to town. We need to update our zoning requirements to allow businesses the opportunity to utilize our existing commercial structures.”

“We also need to include residents in discussion groups to get their thoughts and ideas of what types of business they would like to see in our community,” they added.

Shared services was also noted as they said the “State is providing additional funding to encourage municipalities to share services. Recently we consolidate the courts in Manchester and Lakehurst with Lakehurst paying Manchester to take over their court system. This benefited both communities without any additional cost to Manchester Township taxpayers.”

The incumbents stated that they would continue to look for opportunities to provide shared services and reduce the cost of government. They also want to keep taxes low.

“Many of our residents are on fixed incomes yet the costs of providing quality services keeps increasing. Additionally, many of our young families are also struggling especially with the number of businesses closing and reducing the employee numbers due to the COVID-19 pandemic,” they stated.

The incumbents said that this year the township created an EMT service that provides a needed service to residents. They added that while in the long term, this service will more than pay for itself, the initial startup costs needed to be included in the most recent municipal budget.

The statement adds that “due to our hard

The Manchester Times, November 21, 2020, Page 9 work, we were able to deliver this service with limited impact upon our budget by using some surplus to cover these expenses. Additionally, we have sought out grant funding to help us cover the costs of road repairs such as Ridgeway Boulevard and the new water tank installed behind the Ridgeway Fire Company building.”

The new tank will ease water restrictions in the township’s eastern service water area and eliminate the need for summer water

restrictions, according to the councilmen.

School Board In the township’s school board race three seats for full terms of three years featured four candidates. Melanie Biscardi came in with 15,830 votes while James “Ken” Pate received 13,400. Laura Wingler received 11,182 and Tony Goltsch received 9,45.

There were 350 write-ins.

George Cervenak III ran unopposed for a one-year term on the board. He received

15,892 votes.

Lakehurst Council In Lakehurst which had no contested council race, incumbent Republicans Robert McCarthy and Patricia Hodges will be starting new three-year terms in January.

In the one term race for a seat in the borough’s school board, Amy Lowe received 93.19% of the vote with 506 votes. There were 37 write in votes capturing 6.8 % of the vote total.

Due to COVID-19, their resourceful preschool teachers came up with an alternate activity. Preschoolers planted “pumpkin

seeds,” which were really birdseed.

They watered it and like the magic beans in Jack and the Beanstalk, there were small pumpkins ready for them to pick the following week. Preschool students loved learning about the process of seed development.

AROUND THE JERSEY SHORE New Guidelines Issued On Restaurants

By Chris Lundy NEW JERSEY – New protocols on indoor and outdoor dining were issued by the Department of Health in accordance with the governor’s executive order.

These rules began as of November 12: • Restaurants must limit inside seating to 25% of capacity. Employees don’t count toward that total. • All restaurants and bars must close by 10 p.m. and cannot open until at least 5 a.m. the next day. Outdoor, take-out, and delivery services can continue past 10 p.m. • No bar seating. • Standing in the bar area is prohibited. • Table seating must be at least six feet

away from the bar. • Customers at tables must be six feet apart from any other customers at tables. • Physical barriers between five and six feet high can be between tables if distancing is not possible. These barriers shouldn’t block fire sprinklers or emergency exits. • No more than eight people can dine together at one time. “The Department has revised its guidance to establish additional precautionary measures to protect the health of both customers and staff,â€? said New Jersey Health Commissioner Judith Persichilli. “The guidance also provides flexibility for restaurants to continue to offer outdoor dining opportunities.â€?

Ocean County Man Arrested For Child Pornography

By Alyssa Riccardi BERKELEY – An Ocean County man has been arrested and charged for allegedly downloading images of child pornography.

Investigation began when the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, through the New Jersey State Police Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force brought attention to police of a man in Berkeley Township downloading images of child pornography. They identified the man as 70-year-old Anthony Laterza.

According to detectives, they executed a search warrant on Laterza’s home on No-

vember 12 and seized all electronic devices from the residence. After forensic review, it revealed that the devices held apparent images of child pornography. “It is our understanding that this defendant serves a Deacon at a church in Lakehurst, as such we have made appropriate notifications,� Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley D. Billhimer stated.

Laterza was arrested and charged with three counts of Possession of Child Pornography. He was transported to the Ocean County Jail where he is currently lodged pending a detention hearing.

company had a chance to showcase their equipment, provide fire prevention materials and speak with residents.

Among those present were Fire Dept.

President Michael Sinton who was joined

by Matthew Cadmus, Lawrence DesJardins and Asst. Fire Chief Bob Morris.

“Our biggest thing is that we need people and we’ve lost $15-20,000 in various fundraising. The governing body has been as supportive as they can be,” Stinton said.

Morris, a 45-year member of the fire department and former Lakehurst mayor echoed the department’s two top priorities.

“Membership is certainly an issue in small towns all across New Jersey. Lakehurst is no different. Normally we have coin tosses during the summer and we have various events.” He noted that borough officials saw to assisting them with the replacement of a hose and new nozzle as part of their equipment. That equipment went into service as of October 7 and both firetrucks of the department were outfitted.

Morris said the nozzles replaced others “that were big, old and bulky and in all honesty they don’t quite work. They are tough to turn. They date back to 1984 so what we did was replace 1984 and 1989 nozzles with something that is one third the cost and there is very little maintenance.”

It is easier for those who have limited staffing to handle. He said that one of the fire department’s two vehicles has a 1994 engine. “We are the third owner of it. I think we are all trying to do what we can to provide fire protection. Even though it is a small town it is an expensive proposition for all of us,” Morris said.

Stinton noted while the department faced the financial challenge of replacing nozzles

it also faced another issue. “The county Sheriff’s Department has changed the radio frequencies so there was a major expense in changing radios. Some have arrived and some are in route. Older radios just need to be upgraded. Ken Sloan is our fire chief and is overseeing the radio operations.”

Stinton said, “the governing body has been extremely supportive when it comes to funding. The Borough council has been as generous as they can, helping us to upgrade our radios to the new County requirements, along with the new hose, and nozzles replacing ones over 30 years, funding for many other equipment needs.”

Stinton said, “we work together. We had an old van that basically collapsed over the summer so we have an old police vehicle that we’ve been using. Lakehurst is always trying to do what we can with limited resources.”

“There were a whole lot of fundraisers we couldn’t do and it hurts. It takes many thousands of dollars to gear up a firefighter. That is why we have our good old boot here on our table looking for donations,” Stinton said.

Truck 62-23 is the department’s rescue truck which features extrication equipment.

It was on display during the Proving Ground Church’s Fall Festival. The fire company’s other vehicle is a suppression truck for fire operations. “This truck is also capable of that,” Stinton added.

In a message to borough residents Stinton said, “thank you for your support over all these many years. We are always here for you. New members are always welcome.

Stop in on a Tuesday night and see what we are all about.”

The Lakehurst Fire Station is located at 2 Proving Ground Road. For information about how to volunteer, donate or support the fi re department call 732-657-1106 or visit their website at lakehurstfire.com.

Car Vs. ATV Crash On Route 37, Teen Injured

*$5,800 rebate covers up to $4,000 from HPwES, up to $1,800 from manufacturers.

By Jason Allentoff MANCHESTER – Township police were called to the scene of a motor vehicle crash involving a car and an ATV which sent one man to the hospital with severe injuries.

Manchester Township Police Captain Todd Malland confi rmed the November 14 accident at the intersection of Route 37 and Commonwealth Boulevard.

Police said a Pontiac Grand Am driven by 39-year-old Timothy Riggs of Toms River was in the process of making a left turn onto 37 from Commonwealth when a Yamaha Raptor 350 ATV driven by 18-year-old Tyler Moran, also of Toms River, entered the roadway from a wooded area, colliding with the car.

Moran was wearing a helmet at the time of

the collision but sustained a severe injury to his left leg and was transported to Community Medical Center in Toms River.

Riggs and his 37-year-old passenger Tonya Smith of Toms River were not harmed.

Both were wearing their seatbelts.

The Pontiac had front-end damage and the ATV had damage to its front and right side.

EMTs from the Manchester Township Division of Emergency Services, as well as paramedics from Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital all assisted at the scene.

The crash caused delays on Route 37 while officers conducted the investigation.

The incident is being investigated by Patrolman Michael O’Hara of the department’s Traffic Safety Unit.

Do I Have A Trial Period With My New Hearing Instruments?

In the State of N.J., a trial period to test drive hearing aids is not required by law.

However, in 98% of other States, you would receive 30 or 45 days to wear and evaluate the hearing instruments and return the system to the hearing care provider if you’re not satisfied. In fact, certain providers will give you greater than two months to return the hearing aid system. If you return the hearing aids, there may be a small restocking fee which is typically 5%-10% of the total purchase price. This restocking fee is very common, however, feel free to negotiate that percentage.

Remember, the hearing care professional is spending time with you and should be compensated for his/her time.

For those of you who have never worn a hearing aid, it will take time for your brain to acclimate to all of the sounds we “normally” hear and for many of us, it could take at least 30 days. In fact,

“new” hearing aid users are typically not fit at 100% prescription during the initial first fit. More often than not, the new hearing aid user is set between 80-85% of predicted prescription for the patients hearing loss. It will usually require at least two additional follow up visits to reach close to 100%. The more “time” the hearing care professional wants to spend with you, the greater the chances of a successful experience.

In my opinion, I believe all potential hearing aid patients need a minimum of 45 days to acclimate to wearing hearing aids and at least two follow up visits need to occur after the initial fitting. Any practice that does not offer this should not be considered using best practices and I would look elsewhere to improve your hearing.

Dr. Izzy is always available to answer your questions about most hearing care issues.

9 Natural And Effective Ways To Relax

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Lately, people in the USA have been dealing with anxiety from the recent vote and election stress. This, compounded with fear from COVID and rising cases in some states is adding to the mental stress for all Americans.

Are you feeling more stress than usual?

One of the trending searches on google is fi nding effective home remedies for anxiety and stress, so I thought this week would be a good time to write about some options. Anything that helps reduce daytime stress can help with nighttime issues like insomnia.

Some supplements will work faster than others too, so keep that in mind. It’s best to have a discussion with your practitioner about natural supplements just to make sure they’re right for you. Before I get to the natural remedies, here are some non-supplement ways to calm down: Play with your pup. If you have a dog, this is a good time to tend to your pet because studies show it helps to reduce stress and ease loneliness. It encourages playfulness too.

Take deeper breaths. We forget during the day and tend to hold our breath, especially while doing chores and listening to news, working and so forth. Deep breaths can have instantly positive effects on the body.

Play music. Turn on some music. It doesn’t even have to be soft music, it could be any music, even the kind that makes you want to get up and dance!

Go out into nature. Put down the phone, and go outside. It’s impossible to stay

worked up about problems if you’re among the flowers, or if you’re photographing a squirrel or bunny in the yard.

Plant some tulip, iris or daffodil bulbs and you’ll have something to look forward to in the spring when they bloom.

I have a much longer version of this article which I will email to you if you sign up for my newsletter at suzycohen.com.

In no particular order, here are the 5 most effective natural approaches for stress.

1. Vitamin C - This helps everyone produce feel-good hormones.

2. Chamomile - This ancient herb is easy to enjoy because you can buy tea bags and drink a cup of it for fairly immediate effects.

3. Magnesium - This mineral comes in many forms and unfortunately people often buy the laxative form which doesn’t improve mood! But the right type of magnesium relaxes the entire central nervous system, works immediately and helps with sleep and tranquility.

4. Compounds that raise GABA - Taurine is a very affordable, easy-to-fi nd amino acid and it normal doses it can activate GABA receptors and encourage the release of GABA, much like a benzodiazepine would. But taurine doesn’t lead to addiction. Some others in this category include valerian root, ashwagandha and passionflower.

5. Vitamin B6 - Take this in the daytime, because it can provide energy initially. It helps you make dopamine which is energizing. But B6 is also needed to break down glutamate (stimulating) and turn it into GABA which helps you sleep.

Research Before Donating: How To Avoid Scams This Holiday Season

By Alyssa Riccardi OCEAN COUNTY – Ocean County Freeholder Director Joseph H. Vicari is reminding residents about giving back during this holiday season.

“Charitable giving is more important this year than in the past,” said Vicari, who serves as Chairman to the Ocean County Department of Consumer Affairs. “I en-

courage those who are capable of doing so to consider supporting charities and toy drives as we get closer to the holidays.”

With many charitable organizations looking for donations during the holidays, it is important to remember to make sure your donations will get into the right hands.

“The Ocean County Department of Consumer Affairs is working to make sure our

citizens do not get ripped off by unscrupulous scam artists looking to make a buck on the backs of legitimate charities,” said Vicari. “Consumer Affairs staff is available to help answer questions on scams and whether a charity is legitimate.”

The Department of Consumer Affairs has provided a checklist to help residents when they are deciding on a charity for

a donation. The checklist includes the following: K now your charity. Never give to a charity you know nothing about. Ask for literature and read it. Ask questions.

Honest charities encourage you to do so.

• Do not be misled by a familiar name.

A dishonest charity will often have an impressive name or one that closely resembles the name of a respected, legitimate one.

• Demand identification. Always ask to see identification for both the solicitor and the charity. Be suspicious of anyone who cannot respond satisfactorily. All solicitors must disclose whether they are a volunteer or a paid solicitor.

• Beware of telephone solicitations. Refuse to commit yourself over the phone.

Ask to be sent written information.

• Do not be seduced by emotional appeals. The hard luck story is a favorite of fraudulent operators.

• Do not succumb to pressure. No legitimate organization will expect you to contribute immediately, even if you have given in the past.

• Check out mail solicitations. Mail solicitations often come with a trinket or other item which you are told you can keep if you contribute. Federal law however says that unless you asked for the item, you may keep it without making a contribution.

• Ask about professional fundraisers. Ask the solicitor if a professional fund-raiser is being used and if so, what percentage of the total money will actually go to the charity which is asking for your help.

“We continually encourage our seniors and all of our residents to not give out their credit card numbers to strangers over the phone, keep track of their donations, ignore harassing letters and don’t give cash,” said Vicari. “We want all of our citizens to be protected under the consumer laws. We especially want our older residents to be aware that scam artists are out there and looking to take advantage of them. We are doing our best to protect them.”

If you would like more information on whether a charity is registered, whether it uses a professional fund-raiser or has a history of complaints, contact the Charities Hotline at 973-504-6215 or, contact the Ocean County Department of Consumer Affairs at 732-929-2105.

Inside The Law Is Your Automobile Adequately Insured?

Robert C. Shea Esq.

24 HOURS A DAY • 7 DAYS A WEEK

By: Michael J. Deem, Esq.and Robert C. Shea, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates In 1998, the State of New Jersey passed the Automobile Insurance Cost Reduction Act to reduce the cost of automobile insurance by reducing the benefits available to persons injured in automobile accidents. This means less coverage to pay for you or your family’s medical expenses regardless of fault and less rights to recovery of monetary damages from reckless drivers who cause collisions.

Protect yourself! Make sure you have purchased a Standard Policy and not a Basic policy. Make certain that you purchase your Standard Policy with no less than $250,000.000 in medical benefits. Most people who elect a lower amount of medical expense benefits, only to save literally a few dollars, find themselves unable to afford necessary medical treatment because they have already exhausted their medical coverage. Medical treatment is expensive and don’t let any automobile insurance company tell you otherwise. Think about it. If an automobile insurance company sells you $15,000.00 in medical expense benefits (as opposed to the standard $250,000.00) they may lose somewhere between $20.00 and $45.00 in premiums but they have just saved themselves from having to pay up to $250,000.00 in medical expense benefits god forbid you or a member of your family is/are injured in an automobile collision, regardless of fault.

A lso, ma ke su re you have pu rchased the “No Limitation on Lawsuit Option.” By electing the “No Lim-

it at ion on Lawsu it Option” you are not Michael J. Deem, Esq. limiting you r r ight or your child’s right to receive monetary compensation in the eve nt you or you r child is/are injured i n a motor veh icle collision. While the “No Limitation on Lawsuit Option” will slightly increase your premium than if you chose the “Limitation on Lawsuit Option” the limited premium increase is well worth the expense. When you are discussing pricing of your premium for the “No Limitation on Lawsuit Option” versus the “Limitation on Lawsuit Option” demand that the insurance company provide you with the actual dollar amount that your premium will increase if you purchase the “No Limitation on Lawsuit Option” over the “Limitation on Lawsuit Option.” Do not settle on the typical explanation from your insurance company that one option may increase your premium by 120% or 220%. This is very misleading. When you ask the insurance company what the actual dollar amount of a 220% premium increase amounts to you will probably be pleased to hear that it may only cost you $50.00 a month as it has for myself and my family. The 120% or 220% premium increase is not an increase on your overall premium. Rather it’s an increase of a line-item premium such as the premium associated with your medical expense benefits.

Vo-Tech Promotes Heavy Equipment Operator Program

By Alyssa Riccardi OCEAN COUNTY – The Ocean County Vocational Technical School (OCVTS) recently held a craft advisory meeting about their New Heavy Equipment Operator (HEOP) Program.

The OCVTS discussed how the new program will provide students with opportunities and its potential to support the industry.

Many local businesses attended the Craft Advisory Meeting which included Earle Company, Shore Builders Association, Highway Equipment Company, Terminal Construction, Esposito Construction, Eosso Brothers Paving, Monmouth Ocean Development Council, Monmouth County Vocational School District, and Hunterdon County Vocational School District.

The meeting involved a tour of the HEOP Program and allowed individuals to test drive in-class simulators and experience authentic learning in action. The meet-

ing also included topics such as recent program developments and vision for the future of OCVTS, planning, and development of the Heavy Equipment Operator Program, recruiting and the crucial role of the industry, pre-apprentice and apprenticeship opportunities, job placement, advisory feedback and recommendations for program improvement.

The HEOP program is a pre-apprentice program that will provide students with the knowledge and skills required to operate heavy equipment in accordance with industry standards. Students will be learning industry-relevant, hands-on instruction that corresponds with the National Center for Construction Education Research (NCCER) Heavy Equipment Operations curriculum. Students will use state of the art in-class simulators and authentic learning opportunities to further their skills and eventually to operate actual machinery.

Lower Back Pain? Or could it be Your Sacroiliac Joint?

E

By Christina Gilson, DPT, Whiting Clinic Director

xperts estimate that 80% of the population will experience back pain at some point in their lives. If you have ever had back pain you will attest that it interferes with everything that you do in your daily life, but was the pain actually coming from your back? Or could it have been coming from your sacroiliac (SI) joint(s)?

Your SI joints are formed by your left and right ilium and your sacrum. Your sacrum is the triangular bone at the base of your spine and the two ilia are what make up your pelvis. The SI joints, therefore, are what connect your back to your pelvis. You can see the location of these joints from the back by noting the “dimples” on both sides of the back at the belt line. These joints are held together by very strong ligaments, therefore, there is normally not a lot of movement at the SI joints. These bones are also the site of attachment for a number of back and lower extremity muscles.

WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF SI JOINT DYSFUNCTION? The symptoms of SI joint dysfunction are lower back pain, buttock pain, pain that radiates down the leg (usually only to the knee), pain in the groin, pain in the hips, and/ or muscle spasm in the hips or lower back. As you can see these are very similar to symptoms of lumbar disc herniation, sciatica or back injuries in general.

SO HOW CAN YOU TELL IF YOUR PAIN IS COMING FROM YOUR BACK OR FROM YOUR SI JOINTS? Your orthopedist or your physical therapist can perform a number of tests to differentiate the cause of pain.

Sometimes your SI joints can become “dysfunctional” or not aligned properly due to an imbalance in the flexibility or tightness of the muscles that attach to them or due to a fall that shifts things out of place. Another source of dysfunction is a motor vehicle accident. Having your foot up on the brake at the time of impact causes forces to be

transferred up through your leg into your pelvis. This can cause a shift at the SI joints that tends not to “shift back” on its own.

Physical therapists are trained to diagnose these dysfunctions by palpating, or feeling, for the alignment of the ilium in reference to the other side or in reference to the center of your body. This palpation, along with a number of special tests help them to determine which way the SI joint has shifted. It can be rotated forward or backward or it can be flared in or out. Depending upon which way it has moved, the therapist will perform a muscle energy technique or MET. These techniques are very gentle and use the muscles that attach to the bones of the SI joint to pull the bones back into alignment. Once the joint is realigned, the muscles need to be retrained or released, or both depending on the length of time that the symptoms have been present and the nature of the problem. Often when there is a dysfunction and the bones have been out of alignment, there will be muscles that have been in a lengthened position. This position causes the muscles to overwork and develop increased muscle tone. There will be other muscles that have been in a shortened position and have not been able to fire properly and may be inhibited. Physical therapists, who are experts in anatomy, know which are the likely culprits of this increased tone and they can use a technique called myofascial release (myo = muscle and fascia = connective tissue) to allow the muscle tone to be restored to normal. Once back to normal length these muscles need to be retrained to fire properly to stabilize the pelvis during upright posture, moving from sitting to standing, and walking to name of few every day activities.

Another time when the stability of the SI joints are compromised is during pregnancy. Hormone levels increase during pregnancy which cause the strong ligaments of the pelvis to relax in preparation for the birth of the baby.

However, before birth this relaxation of the ligaments can allow shifts in the SI joints that lead to low back pain and pelvic instability. In this case physical therapists can help by realigning the pelvis (as above) and providing an SI belt, which is a support to maintain the stability of the pelvis until normal hormone levels are restored. Sometimes in the case of a person who is not pregnant, but has had a number of SI issues a similar SI belt can also be helpful to provide stability to the pelvis while the muscles are being retrained and strengthened.

At All-Care Physical Therapy the physical therapists have the knowledge and the skills to determine the source of your low back pain. They will develop an individualized treatment plan to alleviate your pain and help you return to your normal daily activities!

CHRISTINA GILSON, PT, DPT

Christina graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelors Degree in Biology from the Richard Stockton College of NJ in 2000. She went on to earn her Masters of Physical Therapy degree in 2002 receiving the program’s first “Award for Clinical Excellence” as well as the College’s “Award of Distinction”. She then returned to Stockton to receive her Doctorate of Physical Therapy in 2009.

Since graduating in 2002, Christina has practiced in a number of settings including acute care, inpatient rehabilitation, outpatient orthopedics, and home care; though her clinical focus throughout has been primarily towards orthopedics. She has extensive experience in post-op shoulder, knee & hip diagnoses as well as treatment of lumbopelvic dysfunctions.

Christina has taken an abundance of continuing education courses during her 12 years of clinical experience. Her more recent focus has been on manual therapy techniques as well as Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization. In March of 2014, Christina became a Certified Integrated Manual Therapist (CIMT) through Great Lakes Seminars. She is also a certified clinical instructor and has supervised over a dozen physical therapy students throughout her career. In 2015, Christina became certified in LSVT Big, a specialized treatment for Parkinson’s disease.

Christina believes that the most important aspect of physical therapy is “listening to your patient”!

Unique Holiday Gifts That Also Support Lung Health

NEW JERSEY – The COVID-19 pandemic has changed how we live our lives, including new ways to celebrate the holiday season. For those looking for a new take on holiday giving this unprecedented season, the American Lung Association offers a few holiday gift-giving ideas that support lung health and efforts to end COVID-19 and future respiratory viruses through the American Lung Association’s COVID-19 Action Initiative.

Buy two, give two masks. Wearing a mask is a powerful way to show you care about protecting the health of those around you – a perfect heartwarming holiday sentiment. Washable, reusable multi-ply masks in “American Lung Association blue” are available through the organization’s COVID-19 Action Initiative, and when you buy two masks from the American Lung Association, two masks will be given to someone in need.

Firefighter calendar: the American Lung Association’s mission hits close to home with firefighters because of their increased susceptibility to lung disease, including lung cancer due to exposure of gases, chemicals and smoke in the line of duty. Celebrate the most dedicated supporters and their participation in our Fight For Air Climbs with a purchase of a 2021 American Lung Association Firefighter Calendar. Perry Lee, of the Roseland Fire Department and Luis Acevedo, Kaheel Thomas and Will Diaz, from Fort Lee Fire are featured in this year’s calendar. Proceeds will support their efforts to raise money for lung health education,

advocacy and research.

Give the gift of a smokefree future. About 70 percent of adult smokers want to quit, and more than 50 percent will try in the next year, but less than 10 percent will be successful without the right support. Smoking is an addiction and quitting is difficult. But the American Lung Association’s Freedom From Smoking has helped hundreds of thousands of people quit for good. This year, give the gift of a smokefree future to someone you love by purchasing a one-year membership to the online quit smoking program.

“While the 2020 holiday season might not be what you imagined, consider gifts from the Lung Association that are fun and unique – and also give back,” said Dr. Sharon Pine, local leadership board chair of the American Lung Association in New Jersey.

“More than 36 million people are living with a lung disease, making many of them more susceptible to severe complications from COVID-19. By giving a gift from the Lung Association, you can support our most vulnerable when they need it the most.”

An easy way to support the Lung Association as you do your holiday shopping online this year is to simply select the American Lung Association as your favorite charity on eBay and AmazonSmile. You can also donate directly to the Lung Association through Alexa or Lung.org.

For more information on how you can support your lung health as well as the American Lung Association’s lifesaving mission and COVID-19 Action Initiative, visit Lung.org.

AROUND THE JERSEY SHORE Police Said Lakewood Home Used To Deal Heroin

By Chris Lundy LAKEWOOD – A home in Lakewood was used to distribute heroin, and its resident was arrested for dealing, police said.

James Wallace, 34, was charged on November 12 with Possession of Heroin in an Amount Greater than One-Half Ounce with Intent to Distribute; Distribution of Heroin in an Amount Less than One-Half Ounce; and two counts of Possession of Heroin.

Charges are merely accusations until proven in a court of law.

The address was not provided by police.

They said that inside they found approximately 1,800 dosage units of heroin and nearly $2,300 in cash.

The arrest comes at the conclusion of a two-month investigation by the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office Narcotics Strike Force, Lakewood Township Police Depart-

ment Street Crimes Unit, and Brick Township Police Department Street Crimes Unit.

“This was truly a collaborative investigation and all the officers involved did an outstanding job,” Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley D. Billhimer said. “Together, we will continue to root out these drug dealers - and the poisons they peddle - from our neighborhoods and communities.”

Billhimer commended the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office Narcotics Strike Force, Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office Asset Forfeiture Unit, Lakewood Township Police Department Street Crimes Unit, Lakewood Township Police Department Special Response Team, Brick Township Police Department Street Crimes Unit, and Ocean County Sheriff ’s Office K-9 Unit, for their collaborative efforts in connection with this investigation leading to Wallace’s arrest.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of nov 21 - nov 27

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Social events where you can have fun with co-workers might be in the stars in the week to come. Money-making activities can consume a great deal of your energy, yet you’ll still have time for love.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Powerful efforts can propel you toward potent results. Over the next few weeks, you might be able to execute a plan of action with a trusted ally. Your diligent attention to detail makes you hard to deceive.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Offer added benefits to make the wheels of commerce or your job turn more smoothly. Free samples can help a sales promotion this week, or you might invite someone to share a meal on your expense account.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Today’s New Moon may subtly shift your attention to ways to express your creative passion as the next few weeks pass by. You may develop an interest in something you can share with a partner.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): In the week ahead, you may be propelled to initiate new projects with a singular passion. You likely recognize an honest opinion and are willing to accept good advice, so you are one up on the people don’t do their homework.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Use your time and money wisely. You can delegate and have someone else deal with a troublesome problem or customer. It may be better to be resourceful and attentive than wildly extravagant in the upcoming week.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Starting every day with a smile makes the day better for everyone. If you see life is a journey, you will be at your best with a traveling companion. Make new contacts in the week ahead.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The New Moon in your sign might signal a refreshing change in your interests or daily routines. In the upcoming week, someone may be attracted or impressed by your intense do-or-die attitude.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): If you focus consistently, all that hard work and effort should pay off. Expect to make a profit in the week to come by being at the right place at the right time, but don’t spend it as fast as you earn it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): As this week begins, you might be empowered to take charge of your life and feel as if you have the Midas touch. Your drive for excellence may mean you become focused on making improvements in personal affairs.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): This New Moon could mark the beginning of a few weeks when you take a greater interest in career success. Take time to read a recommended article or scan the local headlines since you may learn something useful.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Stay on the right side of rules and regulations, especially at work. Be discreet when engaged in group activities and discussions in the week ahead. Live out your fantasies at your home base.
