By Judy Smestad-Nunn BRICK – The township has rescinded a contract with its affordable housing attorney and has appointed a new firm to fight state requirements for an additional 3,000 credits of af-fordable housing, which would equate to about 1,500 units. Superior Court Judge Mark

–Photos by Judy Smestad-NunnThe Chambers Bridge Residence, an apartment complex near Shop Rite, is restricted to low-in-come seniors and disabled individuals. According to COAH rules, a formula caps the amount of credit Brick can receive for this type of existing housing to 23 percent for seniors and 22 percent for developmentally disabled because Brick has too many of each, the mayor said.

Brick Takes Up Affordable Housing Fight

New Attorney Will Push For Housing Credits

Troncone last month sided with Fair Share Housing Center (an advocacy group for New Jersey’s poor) in a 28-page decision that said Ocean County municipalities would have to plan for affordable housing for the past 15 years – known as the “gap period” – when guidelines set by the Council on Affordable Housing (COAH) were

repeatedly challenged in court and the agency was in a state of flux and confusion. Troncone’s decision came after 13 Ocean County mu-nicipalities were seeking to scale down their affordable housing requirements. Brick and four other municipalities

By Judy Smestad-Nunn BRICK – In state budget figures released recently, Brick would receive more than $35.9 m i l l ion . State aid for the Brick school dis-trict would essen-tially stay flat for the budget, despite a fifth year in a row of an historic amount of school funding statewide ‑‑ some $12.7 billion for fiscal year 2016 across New Jersey. The State Department of Educa-tion said that in addition to over $9 billion in direct school aid in New Jersey, the budget provides for $884 million for school construc-tion debt service and $2.9 billion for teachers’ pension, Social Secu-rity and post‑retirement medical benefits. More than a quarter of the proposed budget is for direct aid to New Jersey schools, which

were represented by the ( just rescind-ed) affordable housing specialist, at-torney Jeffrey Surenian & Associates of Brielle. Last year the State Supreme Court r u led t ha t Supe r io r Cou r t judges would be responsible for overseeing affordable housing obligations instead of COAH. The number of affordable housing units would be capped at 1,000, includ-ing the “present and prospective need” component of a township’s obligation, Troncone ruled. But the 13 municipal-ities argued that the cap should rep-resent their entire affordable housing obligation, not for just the gap years. Every town in New Jersey is f ight-ing the affordable housing rules, and there are currently some 565 ongoing individual lawsuits in the state, Mayor

Housing:Continued From Page 1

John G. Ducey said. “This is a serious issue facing our town that will affect us now and in the future,” said Ducey at a recent council meeting. “You want to feel really comfortable with whoever your attorney is, and we weren’t comfortable with the attorney we had. It was my feeling Brick wasn’t being represented up to the standards we expect from our attorney,” he said. After the meeting, Ducey said that Surenian’s approach was to rezone the entirety of Brick to allow for more multi‑unit housing. T he t ow n sh ip’s new a f fo rd able housing attorneys from the law firm of DeCotiis, Fitzpat r ick & Cole of Teaneck, has a dif ferent approach, Ducey said. “They are f ighting the formula be-cause we don’t have the land for new units. We have fulf il led our quota, and we are against any new affordable

housing. We want credit for our exist-ing housing,” he said. A COAH formula that caps the amount of credit Brick can receive for existing senior citizen and developmentally dis-abled affordable housing at 23 percent and 22 percent respectively, because the township has too many of each, Ducey explained. “They are 100 percent people ‑‑ the se-niors and the developmentally disabled are the most vulnerable population, and they’re saying they don’t count any-more,” he said after the meeting. “Each of those should be at 100 percent. We have enough affordable housing, and we have more than we need if they gave us proper credit. We need the right attorney to f ight for us.” Brick does not have the infrastructure to handle an additional 1,500 units of affordable housing, which would result in more cars on the already overbur-dened roads, and potent ial ly 6,000

more kids in the schools, he said. “That’s the part everyone is missing,” Ducey said. The mayor said that one of his pro-posals to satisfy affordable housing mandates in town is to use existing Section 8 housing money to buy aban-doned proper ty to be designated as affordable housing. In Ocean County, the 2014 affordable housing income limits for a family of four range from $27,784 on the very low scale to $92,614 on the median scale. The hourly rates for DeCotiis, Fitzpat-rick & Cole are $165 for attorneys, $125 for law clerks, and $70 for paralegals and legal assistants. “We plan on f ighting this through the court system and wherever else we have to f ight this battle because 3,000 credits is way too much. In fact, one or two is way too much, we have enough,” Ducey said.

Act of 2008 guaranteeing that no district could lose state aid, even if calculations made after the act became law indicated that the district should receive less aid. This was designed to ensure that no dis-trict would experience a destabilizing loss of aid. School Business Administrator James

Edwards said the Financial Committee also had a discussion about marketing and advertising within the school district. “We’re going to be looking at a policy to see if it needs to be changed or crafted to allow for that,” he said. This was the first Board of Education meeting with the new Interim Superin-tendent Thomas Gialanella seated at the dias, who was named at the February 4 meeting.

“I’ve been to all the different schools over the last three weeks, met and spoke with all the principals and department heads, met with the chief of police and the mayor. Now maybe I can get back to my office and sign some of the papers that have been sitting there,” Gialanella said. Former Board President Sharon Cantillo said Gialanella had an eventful start to his new job, when there was a snowstorm,

a burst pipe and a gas leak all within the first four days on the job. “I hope you weren’t scared off,” she said. Gialanella encouraged parents to attend a PARCC information session. One was held in early March, but there is still time to get to the second session, which will be held on March 16 at Veterans Elementary School at 6 p.m. The next Board of Education meeting will be on March 17 at 7 p.m.

My wife and I just visited the WWII Veterans Memo-rial Park in Whiting and I must say that who ever de-signed this memorial did an outstanding job in honoring those that served in WWII. I don’t how visitors no-ticed, but we did, there isn’t any memorial honoring the women who served in WWII. Over the years I have met a number of women who have served, and like the men, they had buddies that were killed and injured. Women played important roles during WWII, both at home and in uniform. Women worked in defense plants and volunteered for war related organizations. Nearly 350,000 women served in uniform. General Eisenhower felt he could not win the war without the aid of the women in uniform. Women served and died, some were captured and were POWs. More than 1,600 nurses were decorated for bravery. In the Pacific Theater, 565 WACs won combat decorations. We need to recognize the contribution that women played in WWII victory. We need a memorial at the park honoring all those women that served in WWII.Jerry DolanWhiting

The letter “What Is The President’s Legacy?” print-ed February 20, 2016 could not have been more wrong. The letter faults President Barack Obama with the divisiveness in Washing-ton. It was Senator Mitch McConnell who stated at the beginning of President Barack Obama’s term that he was going to make him a one term president. The current Republican Party is well documented with re-moving any member who is willing to compromise on legislation. The presumed successor to John Boehner, Eric Cantor, was probably the biggest example of that viewpoint. President Barack Obama came into office when the country was in chaos. The country was in the Great Recession, involved in two wars, millions of Ameri-cans had no healthcare and others were denied health-care due to preexisting conditions. The debt was at ten trillion dollars from a surplus eight years prior, and it was on a projection to continue into the future. Medicare was projected to be running a deficit by 2016. If President Barack Obama violated the Constitution as the writer states, all anyone has to do is sue to the Su-

This is in response to the February 13 letter regard-ing the origin of moral values. The writer alleges that morality is based upon human experience, and not from a belief in God and the Bible. However, he is correct that moral values “blossomed in the human heart…before the advent of Christ.” But the ques-tion arises, where did they originally “blossom” from? Why do we value the vir-tues of morality? Because they are part of God’s char-acter. If someone doesn’t believe in God, why do they believe in human rights? If you just feel that there should be human rights, then where do these non‑physical feelings come from? Even evolutionists are at a loss to explain where the conscience and moral values came from. You can deny God all you want, but your conscience is always bearing witness, and there is no escape from what is real—the God who is real. Denial offers only a brief postponement of the inevitable. With our God‑given morality, we judge (and punish) those who do not abide by the virtues of our Creator, as God will do as well to those who rebel against His rules. Opinions and belief don’t change reality, or make people “less moral”—they just make them account-able.Charles HenkeBrick

A History Lesson For Liberals

headlights. They just don’t comprehend danger. But, let’s try. The economic crisis was not caused by greedy bil-lionaires or Wall Street. It began with the government program in the Carter Ad-ministration and was su-per-charged in the Clinton Administration. President Carter admi-rably promoted the HUD program building homes for those who could not afford them. What he failed to realize was that many of the recipients of those homes would not be able to afford the homes’ maintenance and upkeep. Much of the tax money ended up being wasted as many homes fell into disrepair. Continuing with promot-ing the “American Dream” of home ownership, Pres-ident Clinton, in 1999, re-pealed a 1933 law that kept risky loans from being cou-pled with those considered sound. He then pressured banks to relax their lending requirements so that those who had been considered unqualified could be ap-proved for loans on homes the banks knew they could not afford to pay back. Clin-ton threatened the banks to make the loans or suffer government retaliation in the form of penalties. The banks complied. In or-der to save themselves from sure destruction, the banks coupled loans they previ-ously would not have ap-proved with those that were more secure, and sold these as investment packages all over the world. Eventually,

as the banks predicted, the bad loans went unpaid causing a worldwide crisis. President Bush foresaw the problem and tried to modify the government program several times, but was stymied by a Democrat Congress. So, when you hear that mind‑numbing phrase “It’s Bush’s fault,” know that it is not; just as it is not the fault of greedy billionaires or Wall Street. The crisis was caused by short-sighted politicians that ignored the advice of professionals and thought themselves to be economic or military geniuses. Vote wisely.Joseph SemiraroBayville

OCEAN COUNTY – As it enters its 19th boating season, the Ocean County Pumpout Boat program, the largest in the state, continues to provide en-vironmental benefits and some extra eyes for safety on county waterways. “Si nce t he p rog ra m began in 1997, 65,000 recreational boats have used the free service and more than 1.3 million gal-lons of eff luent have been d isposed of properly,” said Freeholder Joseph H. Vicari, who serves as liaison to the program. “This program has been ext remely popular and extremely successful and I am happy to announce its continuation into the 2016 boating season.” The Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders was expected to authorize

Pumpout Boat Program Enters 19th Yearoperational agreements for the upcoming boating season during its March 2 meeting. “This program has been a great partnership with the state, our municipal-ities, the Ocean County Utilit ies Authority and the Tuckerton Seaport,” Vicari said. The costs to operate all the boats are spl it be-tween the county and the Ocean County Utilit ies Authority. “The $120,000 budget covers the boat captains, fuel, maintenance, insur-ance and other incidental costs,” Vicari said. “This allows the service to be provided free of charge to boater s .” The s t ate Department of Environ-mental Protect ion also provides some funds to of fse t t he operat iona l

costs. The six boats were all p u r c h a s e d b y O c e a n County with the costs being reimbursed through t he Clea n Ve ssel Ac t Grant and the NJ Shore-to‑Please l icense plate program. “I am very pleased to have sponsored the leg-islation that created the ‘Shore‑to‑Please’ license p l a t e p r og r a m wh ich helps provide f unding for t he pu mpout boa t program,” said Freehold-er Virginia E. “Ginny” Haines, who served in the state Legislature. “I am happy to see these funds resulted in such a successf u l p rog r a m that helps to preser ve Bar negat Bay and ou r environment.” Vicari said the pumpout boat program is essen-

t ia l for a count y such as Ocean County which relies on tourism for its economic base. “ W he n b o a t e r s a r e unable to use the many pumpouts based at the marinas throughout the county, they should be using the pumpout boats,” he said. “We now operate six pumpout boats that are helping us do our part to keep Barnegat Bay and its tributaries clean. We encourage all of our boat-ers who are out enjoying the bay and our rivers to use this free service and stop waste water pollut-ants f rom enter ing our waterways.” Ocean County’s pum-pout boats are specially equipped vessels capable of emptying the on‑board toilets and tanks of other boats, thus keeping waste

f rom enter ing the bay. The boats cover different areas of the bay through-out Ocean County. The pumpout boats can be ac-cessed by contacting the captains on VHF Radio Channel 9. “We are home to the greatest number of ma-r inas in the s t ate. We want people to use our bays and our r ivers for rec reat ional boat i ng,” Vicari said. “But we also want everyone to enjoy these wonderful natural habitats responsibly and to be mindful of the envi-ronment that needs to be protected and preserved.” The Bay Defender, a 23-foot boat with a 420 gallon holding tank and operated by Brick Town-ship was launched in 2014 and joined the Bay Saver in pat rol l ing nor ther n

ment of Solid Waste Man-agement. “I am happy we can offer it again this year. It provides benefits to not just our citizens, but a l so t he env i ron-ment.” Last year, the county collected 271,842 pounds of hou sehold h a z a rd -ous waste at a cost of $107,921. The program is funded in part by State Recycling Enhancement

Act Tax Fund. “This f ree prog ram, which got started in 1989, provides an avenue to get rid of items like paints, paint thinner and clean-ers, properly and safe-ly, keeping the material from entering our water-ways and our preserved lands,” Little said. The program will run once a month from April to October and is held at

different collection sites throughout the county. “We work to make cer-tain this program is ac-cessible to our residents,” Little said. “It is held in towns, both la rge and small, and citizens in any Ocean County town can attend any site.” The f irst dates, times and locations for the 2016 col lec t ion a re: 9 a .m. to 3 p.m., Apr i l 16 at the Stafford Township Publ ic Works Garage, 320 Haywood Road; 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., May 14, Manches te r Tow nsh ip Publ ic Works Garage, 1360 Route 70 and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., June 11, Toms R ive r Tow n sh ip P ub -lic Works Garage, 1672 Church Road. While the program is free, registration is re-quired. To register for the Man-chester collect ion site, cal l 732‑367‑0802; for

the Toms River Township site, call 732‑506‑5047 and for Stafford Town-ship, call 609‑978‑0913. Mu n icipal recycl ing centers and the county’s recycling centers allow for drop off of a host of materials including used paint, motor oil and car batteries. “Our residents should check with us or their lo-cal recycling center to de-termine what is accepted year‑round eliminating the need to store them in their home,” Little said. Residents can drop off a maximum of 200 pounds of dry mater ial and 20 gallons of liquid at the county’s household haz-ardous waste collection sites. No containers over f ive gallons will be ac-cepted. Materials accepted at the household hazardous waste col lec t ion s i t e s are: paints, thinners, boat

BRICK – Lake Riviera Middle School host-ed its 13th annual Seventh Grade World’s Fair showcasing the countries of China, Vietnam, Spain, Canada, Switzerland, Aus-tralia, as well as the Baltic States: Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. Over the course of the Seventh Grade World’s Fair history, 70 individual countries from around the world have been fairly represented so as to showcase all cultures. Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Stud-ies art, music, woodshop, theatre, cooking, foreign language, sports, technology and more are incorporated into this wonderful learning experience. Students, who enter LRMS as sixth graders, participate as seventh graders and leave as eighth graders, are exposed to at least 24 different countries through the World’s Fair event. The seventh grade teaching partner-ships are focused on allowing this unique learning event to become an enrichment activity that creates benefits well beyond the traditional classroom experience. Every sev-enth grade student has their hand involved in the event. Projects, presentations and collaborative efforts are life skills that are

utilized and enhanced by the World’s Fair. There are classroom Ambassadors who are given leadership roles in order to assist in overseeing the progress of each class. The LRMS PTA sponsored a “Family Night” on February 3. This event brought in over one thousand people. In addition, the seventh graders also hosted the event for all of the Brick elementary schools. Ap-proximately 300 first graders were escorted around the World’s Fair by seventh grade students who led and guided them through various student-designed activities in each of the countries. Finally, students showed off their hard work to their school peers as the sixth grade students enjoyed the last day of the event. The Seventh Grade World’s Fair is an incredible cross-curricular event that epito-mizes Lake Riviera Middle School’s mantra of “Aiming for Excellence.” In a character education infused school-wide project, a simple room is transformed into a mini Ep-cot for the people of Brick. The camaraderie and collaborative efforts by students and faculty members alike allow this event to shine and show our diversity as a country. In turn, as students learn The United States is a culture of cultures, they understand it’s a small world after all and take immense pride in showing that their hard work and diligence will create an amazing end result.

LAKEWOOD – The Rotary Club of Toms River is pleased to present its Spring Fling Gift Auction on April 15 at 6:30 p.m. The auction will be held at The View at Eagle Ridge, 2 Augusta Blvd. The event will include music by Riptide Productions, door prizes, buffet dinner and cash bar.

By Catherine Galioto ISLAND BEACH STATE PARK – The Friends of Island Beach State Park are about a month into a campaign to raise more than $18,000 for a new live camera project and other efforts at the state park. The group is more than $2,000 toward its goal. The Friends are trying to raise the money to move the old osprey cam to the beach-front and buy a new, enhanced camera as its osprey cam. The camera and its equipment would be more reliable and show finer de-tails than the previous camera was. There’s also better communication equipment

Friends Of IBSP Hold Online Fund Driveplanned to more quickly and reliably relay the live feed to the website, said Angelo Sica, president of the Friends of IBSP. The beachfront camera would show a live stream of beachfront activity at bathing beach 1, to show surf, beach, crowd and weather conditions. The osprey cam is now down as the Friends’ trustees plan for the project. Once a new osprey cam is up, viewers should notice better imaging, with fewer delays, and even hear audio from the nest platform, Sica said. To donate or sign up for other Friends of IBSP programs, visit friendsofibsp.org.

Fire Safety For Those With Hearing Loss There are 11 million deaf or hard of hearing Americans who cannot rely on traditional sound‑oriented smoke detec-tors and therefore are at a disadvantage. Decreased hearing can limit a person’s ability to take quick action and escape during a fire emergency. Those with hearing loss need to take extra precautions to protect themselves from the hazards of home fire. This in-cludes being aware of the availability of flashing and/or vibrating smoke alarms and having an effective escape plan in place. Have the proper alerting system: Smoke detectors are not doing their job if you cannot hear them. Consider the follow-ing statistics: 20 percent of home fires occur between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m., yet these fires account for more than half of all home fire deaths. Something to keep in mind: most smoke detectors produce a relatively high frequency (3000 kHz) sound. Recent studies have revealed that this frequency is not particularly effective in waking up children, heavy sleepers, those taking sleeping pills or other medication and those who have had too much to drink. In addition, high frequency alarms are almost completely ineffective in alerting people with high frequency hearing loss, accounting for about 90 percent of people with hearing loss and all deaf people. Install a flashing or vibrating smoke alarm on every level of your home. Test all smoke alarms

monthly and change the batteries at least once a year. People with hearing loss are at greater risk from night time fires because their hearing instruments are typically out of their ears when sleeping. Not all alert-ing devices meet every need but some do come close. The ideal device would not only sound an alarm but also flash a light and vibrate the bed. This would alert the three most important senses simultaneously. There are a great number of smoke detectors designed specifically for those with a hearing impairment. Light‑tone HL bedside fire alarm and clock alerts you by sounding a loud low frequency and vibrating the bed. The combination of the low frequency alarm sounding and the bed shaking wakes even heavy sleepers. Silent call makes great alerting systems that work with more than just smoke detectors. Plan your escape: An important tip is not to isolate yourself. Inform family mem-bers, the building manager or a neighbor of your fire safety plan and practice it with them. Contact your local fire depart-ment on a non‑emergency phone number and explain your special needs. They can help with your escape plan, perform a home inspection and offer suggestions about smoke alarm placement. They can also keep your information on file. For more information about fire safety, visit usfa.fema.gov.

Natural Alternatives To Antibiotics

Some of you take several antibiotics each and every day, while some of you avoid them like the plague. The pros of a traditional antibiotic is that you can keep your infection from achieving full‑blown status, or as some experts suggest, you chase the bugs into biofilms where they can’t be killed but your symptoms go away. Organisms that go into biofilm are going into ‘submission’ for lack of a better word and they’ll do that sometimes in the presence of an antibiotic. Traditional antibiotics can cure pneumonia, or life‑threatening infections from the deadly “kissing bug,” or hair ties. Yes, hair ties. Google Audree Kopp, she almost died from sepsis from her hair tie. Point is, drugs are sometimes handy. But I’m not convinced of their safety for long‑term or less serious infections. They change who you are. When you take an antibiotic, you destroy your gut flora, which has an impact on your personality. That’s why you need probiot-ics. Plus probiotics impact your digestion, your mood and ability to fight cancer and infection. A disadvantage of antibiotics is that you become resistant to them quickly. What will you do when they stop working? Think this out with me, penicillin is just penicillin. It’s easy for a germ to outsmart one ingredient. With something like garlic, there are at least 35 known active constituents making it super hard for a bug to get around and become a “superbug.” Capiche? I’m a pharmacist, trust me on this. My antibiot-ics are simple substances. Pathogenic organisms have been around the Earth for eons, and they are much smarter. They can outsmart the drugs because unlike herbs, pharmaceuticals don’t have hundreds of biologically active constitu-ents. Scientific research is never going to agree with me or other natural healers like the scantily dressed “medicine” man, licensed naturopaths/

chiropractors or even grand-mother s so don’t wait for an FDA stamp, but to me it’s almost like “Duh?!” Today’s article is to offer some herbal alter-natives in case you need to kill ‘something’ in you without killing yourself. Please discuss all changes to your health regimen with your doctor, since I am not one: Brazilian Propolis – With the help of bees, this popular tree resin packs a punch. It can be taken by mouth, or directly applied to wounds. It may help with colds, flu or sore throats. This is an all‑around immunity aid, and a brand new study found that it could help with organisms found in dental biofilms (S. mutans) which contribute to cracked teeth. Cat’s Claw – A strong antimicrobial and antivi-ral which is often used in Lyme, and sometimes HIV as an adjunctive remedy. Anyone could use it for a general infection. It has some anti‑cancer affect, and it reduces TNF alpha (an inflammato-ry cytokine). Useful for Crohn’s as well. Colloidal Silver – Everyone’s favorite, this may be useful for staph in the nose. Studies have shown that topical colloidal silver solution has effective antibiofilm activity against Staph-ylococcus aureus, and tons of other organisms. Oregano – It’s a strong anti‑fungal and may be useful for Candida, as well as parasites. Some people dilute it with a little coconut oil and apply it to the skin (not on broken skin though), where there is signs of fungal infection. The carvacrol component of wild oregano oil has activity against MRSA and C. difficile. Teasel Root – May inhibit growth of Borrelia burgdorferi (Lyme). It can extract bacteria from muscle tissue where antibiotics have a hard time penetrating.

LAKEWOOD – In a mission to promote health and wellness in the local senior community, The Center for Healthy Aging at Monmouth Medical Center, Southern Campus is proud to announce the return of Tai Chi instructor Kit Lau, who has been teaching Tai Chi for more than 10 years. This Tai Chi class for Better Health mem-bers is for those who have not previously taken a Tai Chi class before. The class will be held every Thursday beginning now through April 21 from 3 to 4 p.m.

Under Kit Lau’s expert direction, Better Health members will learn the fine art of Tai Chi moves from both standing and sitting positions. All seniors, ages 55 and older, are invited to participate, regardless of medical conditions – Kit Lau can alter her instruction based on each class’ needs. Cost is $5 per class, all held at the Center for Healthy Living, located at 198 Prospect Street. Space is limited and registration is required by calling the Barnabas Health LINK at 888‑724‑7123.

BRICK – The community is invited to volunteer to help pack over 10,000 meals which are to be sent to people in need around the world. This event is being held on April 17 at 2 to 4 p.m. at St. Thomas Lutheran Church, 135 Salmon Street, near the intersection of Route 70 and Brick Blvd. This community effort is sponsored by the Brick Clergy Association, an interfaith group of local clergy, and is administered by Stop Hunger Now, a non‑profit world hunger relief organization.

The meals are sent to schools, orphanages and community development programs. For example, one partner agency in Nicaragua was able to serve over 15,000 children daily.

Interfaith Group To Work Together For

OCEAN COUNTY – Did you know that excess fertilizers are polluting our rivers, lakes and bays? The chemicals in fertilizers wash into New Jersey’s waterways from hundreds of thousands of lawns in the state. To have clean drinking water and healthy waterways for fishing and swimming in New Jersey, citizens of New Jersey need to find ways to keep those chemicals from getting into our waterways, including the Barnegat Bay. Learn how you can help at the new site

Jersey‑Friendly Yards at jerseyyards.org. Jersey‑Friendly Yards was developed by the Barnegat Bay Partnership and the New Jersey Department of Environmental Pro-tection to help educate New Jersey residents about low‑impact landscaping techniques. The new site highlights ways that you can minimize fertilizer use at your home, and shows native plants that you can add to your landscaping that require little irrigation, are pest resistant and attract pollinators like butterflies, bees and other beneficial insects.

Is Your Yard Jersey Friendly?

OCEAN COUNTY – All branches of the Ocean County Library will collect gently used prom dresses, beginning March 1 for its seventh annual Prom Dress Giveaways. Dresses can be both long and short styles for modern teens and should only include formal prom dresses. The library cannot accept brides-maid’s dresses or cocktail dresses. To donate prom dresses, deliver them to any one of the 21 locations in Ocean County. Donations will be accepted until April 22.

The annual event provides dresses to middle school and high school aged students at no charge so they can attend their school’s dances. Last year more than 700 prom dresses were distributed. A schedule for pickup of prom dresses will be announced soon. The locations will include Little Egg Harbor, Lakewood, Barnegat and Toms River. Information about the Prom Dress Giveaway can be found online at theoceancountylibrary.org.

Dear Joel By Joel Markel

I Know About This SchoolDear Joel, I have a son who has learning and behavior issues. It has been suggest-ed to me that he attend a therapeutic school. I have been doing my re-search and am terrified by the price per year. There is no way that I can afford even a year of that education. Additionally what I am finding out is that many of these schools are located on the West Coast. Any suggestions?Answer: Every child in New Jersey is entitled to an education. There are therapeutic schools throughout the entire coun-try. Some of the schools can cost $100,000 including room and board.Virtually no one can afford those high dollar amounts. You must start with the guidance counselor at school. Ask if the prin-cipal can be present at the meeting

as well. Do not be sur-prised if you are met with resistance. The school districts do not like to shell out any extra monies for any student. You may have to meet with the school board in your district. De-pending upon where you live, it can be just a battle to a full blown war. If it gets to be very difficult, there are attorneys who specialize in get-ting students extra funding for their special needs. If you need further help please do not hesitate to write me.

Gianna was not saved by votes or judges on the March 3 episode. She and fellow Idol Olivia Rox were sent home, with the judges keeping Avalon Young in the competition. Despite the loss, Gianna had a message for her supporters on her Facebook page, posted just hours after her exit from the show. “So happy to say I made top ten! Although I did not make top eight, that’s okay! I am not sad at all I’m grateful and super ecstat-ic to have had this chance to be on such a legendary show so much fun singing in front of three amazing judges and singing with Demi Lovato today! What a crazy journey this has been. It takes a ton of No’s until you get that one yes and make all of your dreams come to life. I am only going up from here, no regrets and no looking

back. I owe a huge thank you to American Idol within the amount of time I’ve been on the show I can really tell how much I have grown,” Gianna wrote. “Vocally, stage prescience wise, and so many others ways. I learned to always stay optimistic and happy because if you are sad it won’t change the situation all I have to say is a ton of more music is coming your way.” Her schedule was jam packed the follow-ing day with appearances and interviews across Los Angeles. Hours after her Face-book post, she took to social media again, this time with a video, to thank her fans for sending their well wishes, but assuring them she’s okay. “A lot of you have been saying you’re sorry and you’re sad and stuff. Please don’t be sad. There’s nothing to be sad about,” she said. “I just wanted to thank you for always supporting me.” She said it was “insane” that she even

made it into the top, especially being only 15 years old.Reports across social media the previous weak pegged her performance as “shaky,” as pointed out by judges Jennifer Lopez and Harry Connick Jr. While she was warned to stay away from comments on social media sites, Gianna said she does read them and has a message for her haters. “Many people have told me to not read comments, or tweets, etc. because they are not always going to be kind. I read them regardless and I know I shouldn’t say something but recently I’ve seen a lot of people saying ‘She shouldn’t be in the show,’ ‘Kick her off,’ ‘She can’t sing.’ I would just like to say in a very mature kind manner that I work extremely hard at what I do. I love singing and I am human, I will not always have amazing performances but that just shows you I am human,” she wrote.

The dream is very much alive, she said. “I am beyond blessed to even be at top ten in this competition but I intend on pushing myself harder and harder each week to make it farther. Your negative comments will make me work harder and the positive one make me love what I do. To those who say I don’t belong in this competition I will prove to you I do belong in this competition and I love what I do. I will show you how much this dream means to me and how badly I want to make it reality,” she said. Gianna, a student at Jackson Memorial High School, made it clear at her farewell pep rally in February that she plans to stay in L.A. to pursue a music career. This is Idol’s final season. The top 8 contestants the remain are Young, Dalton Rapattoni, La’Porsha Renae, Lee Jean, MacKenzie Bourg, Sonika Vaid, Trent Harmon and Tristan McIntosh.

Choosing The Right Automobile Insurance Will Protect Your Family And Assets

In 1998, the State of New Jersey adopted the Automobile Insurance Cost Reduction Act to reduce the cost of automobile insur-ance by reducing the benefits available to persons who are injured in automobile ac-cidents. This means less coverage to pay for medical treatment and less rights to recover monetary damages from careless drivers who injure your family. Protect yourself. Automobile insurance is mandatory in New Jersey. The failure to carry auto-mobile insurance may be punishable by imprisonment. When purchasing automobile insurance, you have two choices: you are required to select either a Basic Policy or a Standard Policy. We do not recommend choosing the Basic Policy. The Basic Policy only provides minimal coverage and leaves you unprotected in several areas. A Basic Policy only pro-vides you with $5,000 of property dam-age liability coverage if someone makes a claim against you, and only provides $15,000 of medical expense benefits should you require medical treatment for your injuries. The Basic Policy does not cover you if you injure someone else. The Basic Policy does not provide Uninsured Motorist coverage to protect you and your family if the careless driver who causes the accident is uninsured or is insured under a Basic Policy. Perhaps most importantly, the Basic Policy will not provide you with a free lawyer to defend any claim against your personal assets. We recommend that you purchase a Stan-dard Policy. A Standard Policy provides the best insurance coverage to protect your assets if you are sued and to provide

compensation to you and your family if you are injured. The Standard Policy does provide medical expense benefits (PIP) coverage which includes medical expenses up to $250,000 per person per accident. The Standard Policy also provides you with Uninsured Motorist Coverage (UM Benefits), so if you are injured by someone who does not have automobile insurance, is insured under a Basic Policy or leaves the scene of the accident then you and your family are covered for your losses. When you purchase the Standard Policy you must elect a “tort option” that will determine your right to make a claim. You must select either the “limitation on lawsuit option” or the “no limitation on lawsuit op-tion.” If you purchase the Basic Policy then you are assigned the “limitation on lawsuit option.” We recommend that you choose the “no limitation on lawsuit option.” Ask your insurance representative what is the actual dollar amount that your overall premium will increase if you elect the “no limitation on lawsuit option.” By choosing the “limitation on lawsuit option” you are limiting you legal right to make a claim for monetary damages unless you sustain one of the following injuries: death, dismemberment; significant scar-ring or disfigurement; displaced fractures; loss of fetus or a permanent injury that can been diagnosed by credible, objective medical testing. Selecting the correct insurance coverage is extremely important when it comes to protecting your family and personal assets. Call the Attorneys at R.C. Shea & Associ-ates (732‑505‑1212) for a free evaluation of your automobile insurance policy.

For the week of March 12- March 18

By Jeraldine Saunders

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Cooperation is the operative word. Give in with good grace as this week unfolds. The ball is in the other person’s court at work. You must let the other person take the lead if you take a turn on the dance floor of love. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Negotiations stride forward with giant steps. If you are a real team player and make fairness a priority you can strike a deal that pleases all the people all the time. You may be inspired to adopt new goals this week.GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Steer clear of power struggles in the early part of the week. Those in charge could be in the mood to throw some weight around and you don’t want to be in the way when it lands. Avoid starting new projects. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Learn to be wise. Read and study. Your week will unwind flawlessly if you put your trust in others and refuse to bow to outside pressures. Pay close attention to human moods and business will take care of itself.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Fill up your bank account the old fashioned way. Your wisdom about financial matters will keep you from falling into bad habits. In the week ahead a partner will prove to be entirely trustworthy and dispel your doubts. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You have a decided advantage in the week ahead. Although a financial matter could cause concern, you will find creative solutions at your fingertips. Your ability to compromise will put you at the head of the pack.LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Industry and initiative can pay off. Cash might not grow on trees but that doesn’t mean you can’t pick some up that

is right under your feet. Avoid confrontations early in the week when touchy feelings may be in play.SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Investigate before you invest. Finances can end up on a roller coaster ride if you dip into the piggy bank early in the week. Be big hearted and overlook disapproval from partners as a turnaround is just around the corner.SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In the week ahead you may be bombarded by conflicting viewpoints. Wait until the dust settles to make a major decision. Just because one responsibility is erased doesn’t mean you should immediately take on another one.CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Just be-cause you have the advantage of a better education or financial resources doesn’t mean you should take advantage of others. Tap into inner wisdom to protect you from making poor business decisions this week. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Minor moodiness may mar the beginning of the week. Be on your best behavior and don’t step on other people’s toes just to have your way. Passing squab-bles subside quickly but could block your attempts at financial gain. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Focus on love and affection rather than money in the week ahead. Your business judgment could be off kilter, but people will trust your ideas anyway. Do yourself a favor and don’t offer financial advice to any friends.(c) 2016 TRIBUNE CONTENT AGENCY, LLC.

Top Secret! You Won’t Believe How Easy It Is To Make This Restaurant Favorite

By Wolfgang Puck CUT RESTAURANT BUTTER LET-TUCE AND BLUE CHEESE SALAD

Serves 4

HONEY-DIJON VINAIGRETTE:1 1/2 tablespoons fresh tarragon, chopped 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar 2 to 4 teaspoons honey 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard 1/2 cup extra‑virgin olive oilKosher salt Freshly ground black pepper

SALAD:1 1/2 to 2 heads butter lettuce, separated, rinsed well and dried, 20 to 24 leaves total1 ripe Hass‑style avocado4 ounces blue cheese, crumbledFresh dill, separated into small sprigsFresh chervil, separated into small sprigsFresh tarragon, separated into individual leavesFresh chives, cut into 1‑ to 2‑inch (2.5‑ to 5‑cm) piecesOrganic celery, small leaves only, stalks reserved for another use20 cherry tomatoes, cut in half First, make the Honey‑Dijon Vinaigrette. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the chopped tarragon, vinegar, honey and mustard. Sea-

son to taste with salt and pepper. While whisking continuously, drizzle in the oil, continuing until a thick and creamy emul-sion forms. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside. Separate the butter lettuce leaves. Rinse them well under cold running water, and then pat them thoroughly dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Select 20 to 24 leaves total, reserving the rest for another use. With a sharp, sturdy knife, cut the avoca-do in half lengthwise. Grasp the avocado between your hands and twist the halves in opposite directions to separate them. To remove the pit, use a tablespoon to scoop it out. With a large spoon, scoop out the f lesh whole from the skin of each half. Cut the f lesh of each half lengthwise in half again, then crosswise into thin slices. Put one of the largest lettuce leaves on each serving plate, facing upward like a cup. Drizzle with a little vinaigrette. Add a few blue cheese crumbles, herbs and celery leaves. Top with another lettuce leaf, more dressing, some tomato slices and avocado pieces. Continue layering like this, balanc-ing the leaves so the stack stays upright, until all ingredients have been used, reserv-ing a few crumbles of cheese, tomato and avocado pieces, and fresh herbs to garnish each plate. Serve the salads immediately.
