Hospital Updates Officials On COVID

By Bob Vosseller LACEY – Township officials recently heard a presentation by Patrick Ahearn, the chief executive officer of Community Medical Center of Toms River, about how the hospital has been handling COVID-19.

Ahearn recalled the early months of the pandemic. “We have 16 units (different nursing units in our hospital).

Of those 16 units, 12 of them were for COVID patients. We were pretty much overrun with COVID then we saw a break during the summer. We were getting 160 patients a day.

“It was pretty devastating. We did a

By Alyssa Riccardi BARNEGAT – Residents in Barnegat Township have been shocked seeing the landscape that used to be home to hundreds of trees that’s now been entirely cleared for another new development in the town.

The Township has been receiving backlash the past couple years over the increase in developed communities in the area. Recently the Compass Point

development has caused controversy within the town.

Around one year ago, the Township planning board approved the first phase of “The Cottages at Compass Point” which would be an age-restricted housing development built by Chris Vernon, owner of Mercer Management and Development. Vernon has built many other structures in the area such as Bonnet (Development - See Page 12)

Locals Petition For More Vaccines

By Chris Lundy OCEAN COUNTY – While President Joe Biden has said that every adult who wants a vaccine will be vaccinated by the end of May, locals have found it very difficult to get an appointment.

Some have taken to a petition to implore the powers that be to provide more vaccines for Ocean County.

A petition online asks Gov.

Phil Murphy to provide more vaccines to this region, since there are a larger percentage of seniors here, and therefore more people who are likely to have serious or deadly reactions to the virus.

The petition can be found here: tinyurl.com/OceanCountyVaccinePetition The petitioner, Kirstin Kestner, also called for a mega-site

in Ocean County to provide more vaccinations quicker.

The mega-sites are more than an hour away, which is difficult for seniors and those who are unable to drive.

According to the petition, which will be sent to Murphy and New Jersey Health Commissioner Judith Persichilli, the county has not been receiving enough vaccines.

“Ocean County is the 6th largest county in NJ yet it ranks in the lowest half of NJ’s 21 counties in vaccines delivered per 100,000 residents,” the petition said. “Not because the county is failing to get the vaccines into arms, but because the state is failing to deliver enough vaccines to Ocean County and disproportionately distributing (Petition - See Page 6)

Officials: Residents Need Help With COVID Websites

By Bob Vosseller LACEY – Township Mayor Peter A. Curatolo reported on a number of township activities during a recent Committee meeting most notably a letter he posted to the township’s website, that he hopes gains more public awareness.

“Nothing is more important to me than taking care of our residents. As a Township, we continue to move through difficult times but we are turning the corner. I know you have experienced issues and bureaucracy in attempting to receive a COVID-19 vaccination,” Mayor Curatolo said.

The mayor stated in his letter, “it is my sincere hope that these simple directives will assist you as more vaccine becomes (Websites - See Page 7)

Petition:

“When looking at the death rate per capita since the start of the pandemic the injustice and inequity in distribution of vaccines to Ocean County becomes very

clear,” the petition reads.

They also want the ability for seniors and others without computers to be able to schedule a vaccination by phone.

“We find it inexcusable that Governor Phil Murphy felt it appropriate to reduce the available number of vaccinations by 40% in the one county with the highest

senior population and with one of the highest infection and death rates,” they said.

The county has done the best they can with what they were given, they said.

“The Ocean County Health Department certainly understands those are who are frustrated with the process – everyone wants to get back to a normal, or somewhat normal, lifestyle after a year of the pandemic. However, we can’t stress enough how much the vaccine shortage has hampered our efforts – including many counties and other vaccine providers - to get more seniors vaccinated as quickly as possible,” said Brian Lippai, spokesman for the department.

“When some people hear that a friend, neighbor or relative are able to get the shot they may start to feel a little neglected or ignored because they have had difficulty in securing an appointment.

The OCHD wants them to know that it all comes down to the extreme shortage of vaccine coming from the federal government – which is out of our control,” he said. “Once we start getting more vaccine we will be able to commence many of the opportunities to expand our clinic services. That would include opening more sites, or POD’s, throughout the county; expanding our current clinic schedule, drive-thru and homebound services, etc.

We still need those that are in need of the vaccine to continue to be patient and to please understand it all comes down to the demand extremely exceeding the supply.”

The county health department is one group vaccinating relatives. Private pharmacies, like Rite Aid and CVS, have also received vaccines, as have medical centers with gover n mental suppor t.

While the county’s health department has been reporting the number of vaccines received, private companies have not.

The county is hoping to expand clinic services soon, and will be reaching different communities, Lippai said. Once vaccine supply increases, the county will get to communities where residents have challenges that are preventing them from traveling to clinics.

“The county offered to host a mega-site early in the roll out discussions but never panned out for reasons out of the OCHD’s control. Ultimately, it turns out our moderate size clinic at the RWJ Barnabas Health Arena is consistently doing mega site-type numbers or close to it on many days,” he said.

The county has two large clinics, one at the arena at Toms River High School North and the other at Southern Regional High School in Manahawkin. Lippai provided statistics of inoculations in one recent week.

On a Saturday, they vaccinated 988 (430 Manahawkin); Thursday 1,070 (231 Manahawkin); Wednesday 1,040; Tuesday 1,188 (347 Manahawkin). Overall, they’ve inoculated slightly more than 17,500 residents since the end of December.

They have counted on their partners at Ocean Health Initiatives, CHEMED and others to also vaccinate residents.

OPINIONS & COMMENTARY F EATURED L ETTER Bad News Pretending To Be Good News One of the things I love to write about is when people in the community step up to do the right thing. It really warms the heart. It is a welcome reprieve from all the crime and fighting going on in the world.

However, there are a lot of bad news stories masquerading as good news. It’s a little complicated, so bear with me.

Let’s say the article is about a community group that makes a big donation to Fulfi ll or a food bank.

On its surface, that seems like good news. People helping people; that’s what it’s all about.

But underneath it all is something unsaid: Why are there this many people who are hungry? That just shouldn’t happen.

We’ve published stories about people making and donating masks for fi rst responders. This should not have happened. There should have never been a need. But in the beginning of the pandemic, fi rst responders were without life-saving masks.

Every year, there are fundraisers for kids with cancer. Why doesn’t insurance pay for treatments?

Why is it the friends and neighbors have to help the family?

These stories all point out a hole in society’s safety net. We need to patch these holes, and we need to work together.

We can’t wait until there’s a problem and then scramble for a solution.

Letters To The Editor We Need The American Rescue Plan Nearly a year into the coronavirus pandemic shutting down the United States, it’s time for our leaders in Washington to put aside partisan bickering and do something to help. President Biden’s American Rescue Plan to stop coronavirus and deal with the pandemic’s impact on our nation does just that. And the American people agree.

Real American unity is more than about politicians agreeing on a piece of legislation – it’s about getting vaccines in arms, safely reopening schools for in-person instruction, giving every American a chance to survive the crises facing our nation, and preserve critical jobs and services in our states, cities and town.

And President Biden’s A mer ican Rescue Plan meets this moment. According to major polls, there is more bipartisan support for the American Rescue Plan than virtually anything in the last few years Even West Virginia’s Republican Gov. Jim Justice said, “We need to go big, and if we waste some money now, well, we waste some money. But absolutely, we’ve got too many people hurting and the economy is going to sputter and we’ve got to get ourselves out of this mess.”

We need unity to get out of the coronavirus crisis. We need the American Rescue Plan.

Trump Got Vaccinated In Secret News just broke that Donald and Melania Trump were vaccinated in secret in January – months before any of us.

Trump downplayed the v i r u s si nce t he beg i nning, and even tested positive for it and had to be

brought to the hospital.

For months, he’s said the v i r u s wa s goi ng to go away. Fox News followed his lead.

People are dead because of him. Because they listened to h i m. My ow n fat he r ke pt t el l i ng me “It’s just a f lu” because Fox News told him that.

Finally, my father saw the light and signed up for the vaccine. He has to wait until the end of March for his first shot, and has to drive to Atlantic City to get it.

But Trump can just get his vaccine, in private, months before other people who need it just as much as him.

W he n he wa s p r e sident, he should have been helping everyone in the country fight this deadly disease. But because half the country followed his lead, we’re going into our second year of lockdown.

He doesn’t even have the courage to publicly get the vaccine. If he did, then millions of his followers might follow suit. He had the opportunity here to save lives, but of course, he didn’t.

Background Checks Needed On Gun Sales I want background checks on all gun sales!

I urge Sen. Booker, Sen. Menendez and Rep. Kim to vote for background checks to save lives!

I am a victim of domestic violence and my abuser wa s a l lowe d t o ow n a gun. Yes, my abuser was allowed to own a gun! I feared for my life so much that I threw his gun in the trash and never told him.

I know that was not the best decision, but without backg round checks we keep putting people like me and my kids in jeopa rdy. We won’t be forced to live in fear and

make decisions like that.

It should not be easier to obtain a gun than a driver’s license!

Disappointed In Cowardly Senators I am dishear tened by the response of the Senators who took an oath to uphold the Constitution and their conscience and vo t e d n o t t o f i n d o u r past president guilty of sedition.

I am not a politician and confess to being liberal in my views. However, when a question ar ises wh ich is really one of morality, patriotism, and honesty, I do seek to look at the many sides to that question. Lack of courage to do the right thing, because someone is afraid that they may not have the support they feel they need for up-coming elections, is a poor excuse.

We need to send people i nt o gove r n me nt p osit ion s who w i l l d o t he r ig ht t h i ng a nd not be afraid to take risks. They need to side with justif iable reasons to do or not to do a thing! T he GOP was an up-right and honorable party in their position as challengers to other political entities.

I bel ieve t hey need to re-evaluate their position.

They have lost my respect and I pray that in coming elections the voters will weigh the consequences of the GOP behavior in the matter of their voting on the second impeachment and what that has done to our country.

The Video Shows The Truth “Let’s go to t he v ideo tape!”-sportscaster Werner Wolf would declare.

O n 1/6/21, P resident

Trump incited a mob to assault the Capitol to halt the count of the Electoral Votes, a necessary step toward full endorsement of a new president. The Capitol video tapes demonstrated the danger to all members of Congress, and even to his own Vice President. Five people died in the insurrection!

On 1/13/21, the House voted to impeach Trump again, this time by a vote of 232 to 197.

O n 2 /13/ 21, D o n a ld Trump escaped conviction by a Senate vote of 57 (to convict) and 43 (to acquit) failing to reach the twothirds majority required for conviction.

In the House, 197 Republicans had voted to protect the president rather than protect the Constitution.

In the Senate, 43 Republica ns voted to codd le Trump instead of yielding to evidence of criminality.

529 Congressional votes were tallied; 289 to impeach /conv ict a nd 240 vs. impeachment and to acquit.

Republican leaders had laid the groundwork for acquittal for months using a particularly clever ploy, declaring repeatedly that impeachment is a political process. No requirements to honor truth or cherish justice…and absolutely no need for morality! A political process, lacking truth, justice and moralit y! T his provided Republicans with dubious cover for betraying their “sacred” oaths!

D e s pit e e ve r y t h i n g , Tr ump remains favored by over 90% of Congressional Republicans and almost 50% of the American electorate.

I expect his return after a brief exile in his luxurious prison (Mar-a-Lago) and a ghost-written book entitled “My Struggle.”

He informed residents of the State of New Jersey Information Hub, located at covid19. nj.gov.

He said that the site would assist Lacey residents in locating a helpline number to speak with a person who could guide them 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. at 855-568-0545.

Mayor Curatolo said he spoke with “our chief of police, Ocean County Sheriff Michael Mastronardy and our C.E.R.T. Team Liaison to Ocean County. In the near future when additional appointments for vaccinations become available, a C.E.R.T. Team volunteer will be available to assist those who have challenges with technology, internet access issues, filling out forms and the answering of basic, non-medical questions.”

We got through the summer and we hoped it was over and I think we were all lulled into a false sense of security when it went as low as 10 to 15 patients a day and then in November and December, we saw the spike,” he said. “The spike wasn’t as great but we saw that the spike lasted a lot longer. We saw a mountain. It went up and then it went down quickly but this time it went up and stayed up for quite some time. Now we are fi nally seeing the break. We are seeing things come down.

We were the third busiest COVID hospital in the state and we continue to be the third busiest hospital in the state.”

He noted that CMC was averaging in two months between 110 and 120 cases which is down from 160 cases a day. “In the past few weeks, we are starting to average 70 to 80 and we have been in that range which is great. The thing I think is most exciting to the staff is that last week we were able

The mayor also advised residents to visit ochd.org for local information and updates as well.

“Many, many people have been reaching out to me regarding this vaccine. I firmly believe that technology should never be a barrier to care, rather it should be a facilitator to it. People who are trying to get an appointment for the vaccine should go to the website and read it,” the mayor said during the committee meeting.

“When more appointments become available, we are going to help people through C.E.R.T. team members, acquire an appointment, navigate the internet if they are technology challenged or if they don’t have access,” the mayor said.

He added, “we’re going to help them. We have an obligation to help those people get care. We need this vaccine for herd immunity. We need it to help us get rid of this plague that we are in.”

Ahearn said statewide COVID-19 cases were going down. He said that in January “we were seeing 5,000 new cases across the state a day.” He said last month that number dropped to 2,500. “That is a great tribute to what we are doing in vaccinating the public. CMC is a vaccination site since day one. In the beginning it was for our staff and for our physicians.”

The hospital has vaccinated about 4,000 members of the public, as of that presentation, he said. They could do more, but there isn’t enough vaccine being delivered.

Ahearn said “my concern is that people are avoiding health care. Our emergency room volume is down and so part of my message to the public is really about the safety of the environment. We do everything we can to keep the place safe and every person who gets admitted gets tested so we make sure we place them in the right place.”

Township officially turns 150 years old on March 23. “I want to thank the DPW (Department of Public Works). I reached out to them and they have been active along with Committeeman (Tim) McDonald and some of my other colleagues on the 150 Committee,” the mayor said.

“We are going to have on the 23rd at 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Recreation building, a drop off by people who want to leave a standard envelope only, no large packages, something they want to go into our time capsule,” Mayor Curatolo said.

The mayor also said he met with members of the 9th Legislative District recently.

“Senator Christopher J. Connors (who also serves as the township’s attorney) Assemblyman Brian E. Rumpf and Assemblywoman DiAnne Gove answered some of the critical questions that our residents have had.”

School Funding Down The mayor mentioned a conference call he was on with Governor Phil Murphy recently regarding the state’s aid for schools in the amount of $624 million. “I guess he meant the Abbott districts and the major cities in our state because our district here in Lacey is losing money.”

“To me it should not be used as Peter to pay Paul. That is part of the problem that this state is in with our property tax debacle. It should be provided evenly among the urban

Scams Going Around Curatolo also warned residents that phone scams had been reported within the township. “JCP&L are not going to ask for your information and if you need a COVID vaccination from the Ocean County Board of Health or anywhere they are going to ask only the most basic information to help you fill out a form. They are not going to ask you for your bank account.”

“JCP&L will not call you and say we are going to turn off your power when it is 30 degrees outside unless you cut us a check or give us a wire or your credit card number unless you give us several hundred dollars.

Don’t fall for that. If you think the situation smells of something call the police department,” Mayor Curatolo said.

plenty of supplies to keep our staff safe.

A lot of our patients are bringing COVID along with them in so we try to make sure all patients wear masks also. Very rarely, and I can count on one hand has any of our staff given anyone covid.”

Ahearn said the hospital staff is seeing people come in much sicker than previously due to waiting to come in for needed treatment and care. He told the Lacey Committee, “you are the community.

You are the ones in touch with the people in the community. Continue to bring that message not to delay your health care.”

He was also excited to mention that “a few weeks from now we’ll have our fi rst

helicopter that will be available. If someone is really sick, we can get them there very quickly. It is 14 minutes from us and Robert Wood Johnson Hospital.”

“We just opened a new cardiovascular lab and we have plans for a new women’s center hub in Barnegat as we have here in Forked River and we have a big outpatient hub we are putting up in west Toms River. It is part of our commitment to bring our services out to the community,” Ahearn said.

RWJ Barnabas Health representative Teri Kubiel was in the audience during Ahearn’s presentation and she said, “we have had over 50,000 people” vaccinated at the hospital’s Arena vaccination site in Toms River.

Southern Regional Receives College Board Award

MANAHAWKIN – The Southern Regional District has earned the College Board AP Computer Science Female Diversity Award for expanding young women’s access to AP Computer Science A for the 2019-20 school year. A total of 1,119 schools are being recognized for their work toward equal gender representation during the 2019-20 school year, nearly 37 percent more than the 818 schools recognized last year. Southern Regional is one of only 232 to be recognized for achieving this important result in AP computer Science A.

This honor acknowledges the outstanding work the school is doing to close the gender equity gap in computer science. New research shows that female students who take AP computer science are more likely to major in computer science in college compared to matched peers. Through the school’s diversifying computer science education, female students are preparing for the high-paying, in-demand jobs of the future and gives them the opportunity to help solve some of society’s most challenging problems.

MELANOMA OF THE EYE Although melanoma occurs most often on the skin, it can develop in the eye since melanoma develops in the cells that produce “melanin,” the pigment that gives both skin and eyes their color. Eye melanoma most commonly develops in the “uvea,” the vascular layer of the eye sandwiched between the retina and the white of the eye (sclera). Also known as “uveal melanoma,” this type of cancer can occur in the front part of the uvea (iris and ciliary body) or in the rear portion of the uvea (choroids layer). While “primary eye cancer” starts in the eye, 90 percent of melanomas start in the skin, which means they are “secondary eye cancer.”

It is not clear why eye melanomas develop. People born with certain growths in or on the eye, as well as those with lighter colored eyes, are at a greater risk for developing ocular melanoma. If your ophthalmologist suspects that you have ocular melanoma, he or she may recommend more tests.

Development: Continued From Page 1

Island Estate, the Mallard Island Yacht Club and the Holiday Inn, all in Stafford Township, as well as Hotel LBI in Ship Bottom.

According to the resolution, 777 detached senior homes were approved to be built. The

new development is set to have an indoor and outdoor pool, pickleball and tennis courts, and passive recreational walking and biking paths.

Concerns rose when residents discovered the development would actually be mobile homes, which would be different from other upscale senior communities in the area.

“Generally, you try to stay with the flavor of what’s in the area, you don’t go and push something that’s totally unlike the rest of the buildings that surround it,” said Barnegat resident Charles Cunliffe, who also ran for township committee in 2020. “Another concern people are having is since it’s a mobile home park, they will not pay the kind of property taxes that other residents in Barnegat pay.”

About a year ago, before the Planning Board’s approval, a petition was created that opposed development adjacent to Cloverdale Farm County Park. Many were concerned with the development not only being built right next to the park, but also too close to the park’s entrance.

“Those of us who enjoy Cloverdale Park are upset because the approval that was granted requires the shut down of the county road that goes to Cloverdale Park. Those of us who want to visit the park now have to enter through that community and then there’s going to be a back road entrance that will get you into the park. There won’t be a separate road anymore for Cloverdale Park,” Cunliffe said. “Of course, everyone is upset with all those trees being gone. He (Vernon) just went in there and clear cut the place, and people knew about it but until they saw all those trees gone, now they really understand the true level of what’s

being built there.”

A continuous concern within the town is the amount of development that’s been growing in the past couple of years.

“You have Barnegat 67 with Phase 1 & 2, Phase 3 is in proposal which includes more apartments, condominiums, a hotel and more. They just approved more condominiums across the street. So, all in the dense area, there’s going to be thousands of units in a small foot print and that’s another thing people are concerned about that it’s too much, too concentrated, too dense in one area,” Cunliffe said.

As a Barnegat resident for almost eight years, the former Lakewood Committeeman gave his opinion on the ongoing high-development in the area.

“The reason my wife and I chose Barnegat is because we looked at other shore towns and we were amazed at how uncongested and the lack of traffic there was in Barnegat. But now we hear all kinds of traffic that we didn’t hear before and we can tell West Bay Ave. is more crowded then when we first moved here. I can only imagine how it’s going to be when the rest of what they have planned to build gets approved,” Cunliffe said.

Chris Vernon, Mayor Albert Bille and Deputy Mayor Alfonso Cirulli could not be reached for comments by publication time.

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

They Love You, But Your Hearing Loss Affects Them, Too

If you have hearing difficulties, you’re not experiencing them alone. Hearing loss is a family affair, which adds to the importance of addressing it early. Learn how your hearing loss may be affecting the person closest to you — and what you can do.

Has your beloved asked you one, two, or a ton of times to turn the TV down? It’s not uncommon for loved ones to have to deal with louder volumes when a significant other has hearing loss. In fact, it’s one of the potential signs of hearing problems.

What’s more, untreated hearing loss may mean your sweetheart has to: • Speak at higher-than-normal volumes to help you follow the discussion • Repeat themselves often, which can feel frustrating and tiring • Serve as a constant go-between to explain what others are saying Partners of those with hearing loss have also reported stress, isolation, and other challenges, according to research. *Plus, poor hearing can lead to miscommunication or the perception that the other person isn’t listening or engaged. It can all add up to a strain on the relationship.

The good news? Adults treated for hearing loss report significant improvement in relationships — and so do the people who love them. *Here are some steps you can take:

• If loved ones are complaining about your TV volume, schedule a hearing exam.

• Already have hearing aids? Wear them regularly and practice good maintenance.

• Explore your hearing aids’ streaming capabilities, sending customized audio directly to your ears — without changing the volume for everybody else.

Speak honestly about how hearing loss affects both of you — and how you can support each other.

Hearing plays a big role in relationships, so don’t wait. Schedule a consultation with our caring team at Garden State Hearing today!

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

The Mystery Pain Of Small Fiber Neuropathy

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. There is neuropathy, and then there is small fiber neuropathy! These conditions are different. Do not dismiss what I’m about to share because you think it’s no different than typical “neuropathy.”

This is a very important article because it will help so many people who are suffering and don’t know what they have! You might very well have small fiber neuropathy (SFN) and if you ignore it, in time it will lead to bigger problems all over your body. But if you read this today and get proper treatment and help, it is very treatable. I want to give you hope, while educating you about the disorder.

Only the small cutaneous (skin) nerves are affected in SFN. The main difference between SFN and typical peripheral neuropathy (PN) is that SFN attacks the “small unmyelinated fibers” hence the name “small fiber neuropathy,” and it begins with sensations in your toes and feet. Most other types of neuropathy have some degree of demyelination occurring, but again, the fibers destroyed in SFN are not myelinated, therefore this does not respond to methylated vitamin B12 like you might suspect.

Here are a few common symptoms of SFN: • Internal vibration or restlessness • Pins and needles • Numbness • Muscle aches • Electric shock sensations in the body • Trigeminal neuralgia • Redness on the feet termed erythromelalgia • GI motility problems • Postural orthostatic hypotension (POTS) • Bladder problems

• Dysautonomia Erythromelalgia is fairly hallmark, and the condition is characterized by episodes of redness, heat, pain, or mild swelling in the feet usually, although it could be the hands or anywhere in the body. It’s usually triggered by raising your body temperature, which means you may exit a nice hot shower, or hot tub, or the steam room and discover one or both feet have turned red, for example. It’s temporary and likely goes away in a few minutes.

Testing for SFN requires a skin biopsy and there are amazing new test kits available now that a physician can order. If your doctor does a regular EMG (electromyography) study on you, it will be normal. That’s the frustrating and confusing part - SFN does not show up on conventional EMG studies or nerve conduction studies.

The causes of SFN vary and may be tied to infections like Lyme disease or shingles, or endocrine conditions like diabetes. Another frequent, but hard to pinpoint cause is autoimmunity. Furthermore, 40 percent of people with fibromyalgia are thought to suffer with some degree of SFN. One more interesting cause for this uncomfortable condition is the use of (or withdrawal from) SSRI antidepressants.

As for treatment, it varies based upon the etiology. We see best effects from intravenous immunoglobulins (IV IG), as well as anti-seizure drugs like pregabalin and gabapentin. I’ve written a more comprehensive article discussing more symptoms and treatments, as well as proper testing. I will know to email it to you if you sign up for my free newsletter.

Inside The Law Congratulations! You Have Just Won The Lottery...Or Have You?

COUNSELLORS AT LAW

Robert C. Shea Esq.

By: Michael J. Deem, Esq.and Robert C. Shea, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates

Today’s world is filled with scams. It’s becoming harder and harder to trust anyone.

A new assault on victims is in the form of Lottery and Sweepstake scams. These scams are becoming more and more common. They may come to you from social media, phone calls, mailings, e-mail and text messages-all saying that you have won money or prizes. The scammers may even try to impersonate public figures, police, FBI, Lottery and Officials. To make matters worse, they have also mastered the art of cloning otherwise legitimate web sites and social media profiles. So how do you know if your winnings are legitimate?

Scammers like to ask for up-front payment, such as taxes, processing fees, delivery fees, legal fees or customer fees to collect your “winnings.” Any payment requested in advance should be a red flag!

The most common up-front payment request is a monetary transfer, because these are like cash. Other up-front payment schemes that are becoming popular include prepaid cards and iTunes gift cards because the scammers can access your balance if you give them the number from the back of the card or a PIN over the phone. Scammers may also ask that you send cash in the mail. Once you give them cash they are likely to ask for more and more.

One trick the scammers use to entice victims

&ASSOCIATES

to send more money is to Michael J. Deem, Esq. claim that there is a larger jackpot at stake or that there was some error or problem that can only be solved with more money.

The scammers may even threaten violence.

Never give these strangers your personal information. Don’t give them your banking information or credit card information. The scammers will use this information to make unauthorized charges to your credit card or access your bank account. The scammers can also sell your private information to other scammers. Some victims are asked to deposit fake checks and if that check bounces the victim will be responsible for the bounced check fee.

If you have fallen victim to a scam you may be able to stop the damage. Report the matter to your financial institution, the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center, Local Police, the State Attorney General, The Federal Trade Commission and the US Postal Inspection Service.

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.

−Photo By Douglas Polle Photography TOMS RIVER − Kelly Byrnes and Frank Ruggiero are seen enjoying their wedding held earlier this year at the unlikely venue of the Quinn-Hopping Funeral Home at 26 Mule Road in Toms River. The couple’s close friend Sara Giustino Toland, the manager of the funeral home offered up the location when their planned nuptials were put on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic conditions.

“The ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception made for a beautiful and memorable evening,” Toland said. The couple who lives in Ocean Township knew they could accommodate an intimate gathering of family and close friends. The funeral home features two chapel rooms one of which was used for the ceremony. A place of mourning became a place of celebration with some innovation, creativity, friendship and love.

Understanding Shoulder Replacement Surgery By: Kimberly Salvato, DPT

TOTAL SHOULDER REPLACEMENT (TSA):

The total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) was first performed in the United States in the 1950’s. Now, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality states 53,000 people in the U.S. have shoulders replaced each year. The goal is to decrease pain, while increasing mobility, strength, and function.

fractures. The most common cause is advanced osteoarthritis meaning the joint’s smooth cartilage lining has deteriorated. Surgery is considered when conservative treatments (rehabilitation, injection, medication) have failed.

IS THIS RIGHT FOR YOU?

This decision should be made between you, your family, and your orthopedic surgeon.

If conservative treatment did not relieve symptoms, then TSA can be a great option to help increase your independence, and regain your quality of life.

TSA: TOTAL V. REVERSE

SHOULDER ANATOMY

The shoulder is composed of three bones: the humerus (upper arm), scapula (shoulder blade), and clavicle (collar bone).

Like a ball and socket joint, the head of the humerus (the ball) fits into the socket of the scapula (glenoid cavity). Next is the rotator cuff, made up of four muscles which hold the head of the humerus into the glenoid cavity.

CAUSES:

Causes for a TSA include rheumatoid arthritis, disease of the rotator cuff, osteonecrosis, and humeral head

AFTER SURGERY

Post-operative Physical therapy has a large success rate though results can vary.

Restricted use of their hand, and wrist begins soon after, and their elbow and shoulder in approximately six weeks.

Unrestricted use may begin as early as eight weeks.

It is important to realize pain typically lasts until 6-12 months. After one year, 95% of patients enjoy pain-free function!

• Total: Replaces the damaged joint with prosthetics.

The socket and ball are switched; ball replaces the shoulder socket, and the socket is attached where humerus had been. The deltoid muscle becomes the primary mover during elevation.

Kimberly received extensive training treating patients post-stroke in an acute setting and patient postsurgical in an outpatient orthopedic setting. Kimberly then spent four months on her last affiliation in orthopedics and sports medicine, where she studied under renowned sports physical therapists, athletic trainers, and strength and conditions specialists.

Kimberly learned valuable knowledge working with high school and college athletes, predominately with ACL and meniscal injuries.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of mar 13 - mar 20

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Your heart might be close to home in the week ahead. Your career may be important, but spending time with loved ones can be your main social event. Ignore a family member’s potentially uninformed ideas about business and money.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You may feel your best and more productive when accompanied by a friend. Enjoy more social activities than usual and be sure to have a companion by your side. A partner could become more ambitious this week.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Giving back might be all the reward you need. You may be too quick to spend money just to please someone, although you understand it may go against common sense. Enjoy sharing with others this week.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Put pleasure ahead of business. A viable financial strategy for a friend might not work out quite as well for you. As the week unfolds, you might become more aware of the power of using other people’s money.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You may be at your businesslike best as the week begins but could lose sight of realistic goals. Focus on completing a project or doing a great job despite interference and/or moments of doubt as the week progresses.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Everyone can come to a satisfactory agreement despite their differences. You may prefer to be surrounded by a crowd than to be alone with someone. As the week goes by, you may be persuaded to be more passionate.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Recognize an effort to be friendly when you see it. A co-worker, competitor or new friend might be pleasing and cooperative, which gives you a chance to have fun. Family unity could become a hot topic this week.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Prepare to enjoy a spontaneous get-together at the drop of the hat. By the end of the week, your ambitions may be on the rise and you could be more willing to roll up your sleeves and get to work.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): There is world enough and time enough for your ideas to take root. A loved one might expect you to get fired up about a suggestion when you prefer to just warm your hands. Focus on material success in the coming week.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Live a purpose-driven life and you may receive the rewards you desire. In the week ahead, you might enjoy friendly competition in business or on the playing field. In the end, you could be reminded of your responsibilities.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You might realize it isn’t necessary to offer justifications for being fair-minded. Your wisdom and good judgment can shine through when you’re consulted about a business or personal problem in the upcoming week.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Make an effort to be enthusiastic if a new admirer comes knocking on your door. Someone may reach out a hand in friendship by inviting you along on an errand or local gathering. Focus on your ideals this week.
