The Township Council accepted the donation through a resolution passed at their July 25, 2016, meeting. Representatives said that the equipment ties into an initiative to encourage seniors to eat well, socialize, and challenge their minds. “It’s going to be a great benefit to the town,” said Director of Public Works Al Yodakis, who worked with representatives from Pfizer and Wakefern to select a location for the equipment at Harry Wright Lake beyond the band shell and adjacent to the outdoor fitness center and walking trail. The entire process of manufacturing to installation is expected to take approximately six weeks. Because of our sizeable senior citizen population, Manchester Township is the first site selected by Pfizer and Wakefern to receive a donation of this wellness system. The equipment will serve as a neighborhood destination where senior residents can meet, exercise, and connect with one another. In addition to the exercise center, benches are planned at the site. “On behalf of the Council, I’d like to thank Pfizer and Wakefern for their generous contribution to Manchester Township,” said Council President James A. Vaccaro. Mayor Kenneth Palmer also offered his appreciation to the companies for their donation. The Township Council is committed to keeping costs down and creating opportunities for our senior population with no impact to the taxpayers, and is thankful for the assistance of our neighboring businesses in a “spirit of mutual cooperation.” VOL. 16 NO. 571 Four Arrested In Connection with Heroin Distribution Including Father and Son Manchester Township NJ – An investigation by members of the Manchester Township Police Department’s Narcotics Enforcement Team (N.E.T.) culminated in the search of a Crestwood Village home and the arrests of four individuals on heroin distribution and other drug related charges on Thursday night. During the late evening hours of July 28, 2016, members of the department’s Narcotics Enforcement Team executed a court authorized search warrant at an Amesbury Road residence in the Crestwood Village section of the Township. The investigation began after the Narcotics Enforcement Team received complaints about possible drug distribution on that block. Surveillance was established in the area and an investigation ultimately led to the receipt of a search warrant for the residence. During the search of the home, evidence of heroin distribution, along with 149 doses of heroin were recovered. In addition, more than $3,000.00 in cash, believed to be proceeds of heroin sales, was seized. Furthermore, paraphernalia associated with the distribution of heroin was also seized. Arrested at the residence were the following: • Rocco R. Scalzo Jr., 48, Grinnell Avenue, Manchester • James P. Gnatowsky, 44, San Carlos Street, Toms River • James S.

Hughes LCSW In Touch Massage Therapy NJ Warehouseman & Movers Association Mindful Solutions NJ Soul-Centered Healing NTS Drywall 4 August 5th, 2016 The Ocean County Gazette - www.ocgazette.news source: anne-elisabeth.com.au ARIES: 21st March & 20th April Don’t ignore tension that might have arisen in regards to future plans you are considering. There could be more seriousness behind objections than you realize, particularly when it comes to obligations involved or what might be put to one side. Anybody else will be dealing with details – you will be dealing with the big picture. TAURUS: 21st April & 20th May Don’t take any risks based on what you believe other people will support as they could find ways of side stepping matters. When left to your own devices you may start to become doubtful of the ideas you have or any previous discussions you might have had. Put your mind on what you can control as time goes on. FOR GEMINI: 21st May & 20th June You could feel left behind as someone else sets out to put their energies into matters that interest them. What you might need to question is the level of responsibility you have been prepared to take on to support them. Rather than feel sorry for yourself, cast your mind to what you need to put into place for yourself. CANCER: 21st June & 22nd July It can be the detail that trips you up with any ideas you might want to implement on a daily basis. Gaining a clear perception on the outcome might be difficult and you need to be careful that you don’t look at things, as you want to see them rather than their actual reality. There is someone who will take a very black or white approach. LEO: 23rd July & 22nd August Life will seem to operate at two levels – one where you want to focus on what you want to put in place. The other level involves matters of pleasure or celebrations. However, there is a greater balance of serious things that require your attention. This might make you realise proper daily routines makes things a lot easier. VIRGO: 23rd August & 22nd September You may wonder what you have done to deserve so much attention. Gaining a clear idea of the true position of somebody else can be almost impossible. Best to observe and simply wait for things to surface of their own accord in their own time. Create opportunities to enjoy yourself otherwise serious matters will take over. LIBRA: 23rd September & 22nd October You need to bide your time when it comes to discussing ideas or details with somebody else in any situation where you are hoping to get an agreement. They won’t be making things easier for you. Put your energies into gathering more information – it could lead to a moment of enlightenment of an easier method. SCORPIO: 23rd October & 21st November Stop and think about what you have learned either about yourself or circumstances you have had to deal with in the last year. This can set you on a new path for the next 2 years. Be cautious with friendships or involvement with a group of people right now, especially if any tensions start to form. You have strength of mind. SAGITTARIUS: 22nd November & 21st December There will be a turning point with personal obligations and responsibilities and you need to be certain about the actions you are prepared to take. This is no time to take on extra pressure to ease a situation for somebody else. If you are not clear on something, say so. What you accept will influence the next 2 years of your life. CAPRICORN: 22nd December & 19th January You can gain some vision of the path ahead but you need to bear in mind that there is a lot going on behind the scenes in some way or has an unknown quality. For this reason, don’t be surprised if you have periods of confusion. You can also feel quite clear in your mind and wonder why these two things seem be in play. They just are. AQUARIUS: 20th January & 18th February Someone else is likely to take a dominant approach and you must employ what you have learnt in the past to ensure it doesn’t end up leaving you with extra obligations. There could be a real challenge between what is expected of you and your own priorities. This is a test in standing up for your rights. Resistance is the key. PISCES: 19th February & 20th March You will either be unsure of exactly what someone else means with what they say or you could feel uncertain about the best way of handling it. Don’t feel as though the obligation is on you to sort it out. More important is that you protect yourself from situations that could limit you or bring greater pressure into your life. ADULTS NEED VACCINES, TOO! NATIONAL IMMUNIZATION AWARENESS MONTH “Every year, tens of thousands of adults in the United States suffer serious health problems, are hospitalized, or even die from diseases that could have been prevented by vaccination. There is much focus on adult vaccinations; lately, television commercials show adults with shingles and the importance of the shingles vaccination and also ads for pneumococcal vaccination to prevent pneumonia,” said Ocean County Freeholder Deputy Director Gerry P. Little, Liaison to the Ocean County Board of Health. Daniel Regenye, Ocean County Health Department (OCHD) Public Health Coordinator, said, “As we celebrate the importance of immunizations through life – and to help remind adults that they need vaccines, too; the Ocean County Health Department is recognizing August as National Immunization Month. This is the perfect opportunity to make sure adults are protected against diseases like flu, whooping cough, tetanus, shingles and pneumococcal disease.” The specific vaccines adults need are determined by factors such as age, lifestyle, risk conditions, locations of travel, and previous vaccines. All adults should talk to their health care professionals to make sure they are up-to-date on vaccines recommended for them. Regenye continued, “There is a misconception among many adults that vaccines are just for children. The truth is, you never outgrow the need for immunizations.” The Ocean County Health Department offers Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis) and shingles vaccinations every first and third Thursday of the month from 1PM until 4PM. For the Tdap vaccination, you must be over the age of 19 years and for the shingles vaccination, over 60 years of age. Although you do not need an appointment for the Tdap vaccination, it is necessary to make an appointment for the shingles vaccination by calling 732341-9700, ext. 7604. Also, beginning in the fall, the OCHD will begin its annual Flu Campaign.

Hi! My name is Louise and I was pulled out of an overcrowded shelter down in Tennessee. Some kind folks rescued me and I lived with them for almost a month before I was brought up to the Jersey Shore to find my forever home. When I was in my foster home, I Ioved to go for car rides and long walks. I also like oneon-one time with people and I LOVE to be brushed. I am housebroken! Whoever takes me home must give me some time and patience. I would do best in a calmer home with no youngsters. I myself am about 5-6 yrs old and I like my people over 12! I did live with other dogs and was fine with them but I do protect my food. I really am so happy to be up in NJ where I know someone will take me home and love me forever! Vienna’s Story... This exotic-looking three-year-old came to us in early December when her owners moved to a place that did not allow pets. With her shiny black coat, her adorable round face and her big green eyes, she is sure to catch your attention by her good looks alone. She seems a bit intimidated by her new surroundings at the moment, but don’t be put off by her shyness, because once she warms up to you, she can be an attentive and loving friend. This quiet girl would prefer a home with no other pets. So, if you’re looking for a little one-on-one quality time, just remember the words to that old Billy Joel song… “Vienna waits for you.” Man Injured in Animal Attack Manchester Twp. NJ – On July 27, 2016 at approximately 5 PM, a 53 year old Johnson Avenue man, encountered, and was bitten several times by an aggressive animal believed to be a dog or a coyote in a wooded area near his residence while walking his German Shepard. The encounter was reported to the Manchester Township Police by the Emergency Department of Ocean Medical Center in Brick approximately four hours after the incident occurred, when the victim was at the facility receiving treatment. The investigation revealed that the victim received several bites, cuts and lacerations to both arms from what he described as “a large brown aggressive dog” which he came upon in the woods. The victim reported that he was surprised by the presence of the animal and was attacked without any provocation. He was treated and released by the Emergency Department staff that night after receiving numerous stitches on both arms. There were no witnesses to the incident and although an extensive neighborhood canvas was conducted by members of the police department, no one reported seeing an animal matching the description in the area. A few residents, however, reported hearing what they believed to be coyote calls off in the distance in the past. The incident is currently being investigated by Ptl. Kyle Rickvalsky along with the Manchester Township Animal Control Officer and representatives from the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife. 6 August 5th, 2016 The Ocean County Gazette - www.ocgazette.news PROPERTY ALERT SERVICE IMPLEMENTED BY OCEAN COUNTY CLERK TOMS RIVER - The Ocean County Clerk’s Office is offering an added layer of security when it comes to property protection. “The Ocean County Clerk’s Office Property Alert Service is a key step in protecting your property,” said Ocean County Freeholder Director John P. Kelly, who serves as Director of Law and Public Safety. “I want to commend our County Clerk Scott Colabella in implementing this new program which provides a layer of protection against property and mortgage fraud.” The Property Alert Service is a free service that provides property owners with email alerts anytime that a document affecting a specific property is recorded by the Ocean County Clerk’s Office. “Scammers record fraudulent documents like fake deeds or record fake liens against property owners,” Colabella said. “In some instances, fraud on real property is not discovered for years. “To address these concerns and protect one of the most important assets a person has, my office now offers this free service that immediately notifies you by email whenever a document with your name is recorded in the County Clerk’s Office,” he said. Property owners can sign up for the free service by visiting oceancountyclerk.com and clicking on the Property Alert icon to access the Property Alert Service page. “It’s as simple as registering your name or business name and your email address and you will be automatically notified electronically if a document is recorded with your name,” Colabella said. Ocean County Freeholder Virginia E. Haines noted Colabella and the Ocean County Department of Information Technology collaborated on the project which resulted in the launching of the Property Alert Service in Ocean County. “This is an important service that can be accessed by our homeowners and business owners,” said Haines, who Serving Ocean County for 30 years serves as liaison to WE SELL COMICS & ACCESSORIES - WE HAVE GIFT CERTIFICATES the Department of Information Located at: 1231-7 Route 166 Toms River, NJ 08753 Technology. “Any tools 732-244-6226 that can help protect Open 7 Days a Week our residents from fraud and scammers are useful and benefit our property owners.” Comic Relief Thousands of documents are recorded annually at the County Clerk’s office. Of the 131,893 documents recorded in 2015, 24,492 were deeds and 22,778 were mortgages. “Based on the volume of deeds and mortgages recorded monthly, it’s not impossible for some items to be potentially fraudulent,” Colabella said. “This program will help property owners prevent potential scams from affecting them.” Kelly noted this program will also help seniors and their caregivers in making certain there is no fraudulent activity taking place. “Ocean County is home to more than 160,000 senior citizens,” Kelly said. “This is yet another way the County can offer some protection against scammers.” Colabella noted that unfortunately identity theft is a growing consumer complaint and property fraud which is a form of identity theft is on the rise. “While this service can’t prevent fraud, it’s important to be notified early that someone may be trying to steal your property without your knowledge,” Colabella said. He added that the only time recordings can be refused is when statutory guidelines are not met. “As long as a document meets statutory recording guidelines, New Jersey law requires the Clerk’s Office to record the document,” he said. “I am pleased we can offer this new program to help our constituents detect information that may be fraudulent.” NICKS PRODUCE (Great Prices Every Day) Ve h t get Fres s e i r abl h F Fru es $5.00 OFF Any Purchase of $25 or more.

Watercolors by Harriet Fink All Day Location: Toms River Branch Watercolor paintings by Harriet Fink will be on display in McConnell Gallery throughout the month of August. The exhibit features seascapes, boats, lighthouses, and more. Harriet says, “I choose to paint in watercolors because they flow and blend and produce beautiful colors. I love walking the shore, feeling the sand beneath my feet, hearing the wind and the waves and observing the weather changes. I hope to inspire viewers of my artwork to see and enjoy the beauty I see in nature.” Harriet Fink’s interest in art began 35 years ago with drawing and art classes at the DuCret Art School in Plainfield, NJ. She is a past President of the Artists League of Central New Jersey and has served on the Pine Shores Art Association in various capacities. She was recognized as the Pine Shores Art Association’s Artist of the Month in February 2016.

The nest, in the park’s Southern Natural Area, is the the first ocean side nest in more than 25 years and the first in the park in more than a decade. It is hoped this is an indication of a rebounding population after sharp declines between 2003 and 2014 of the federally threatened and state endangered piping plovers in New Plover chick with adult Jersey. Courtesy of volunteer Kevin Knutsen As is frequently the case with plovers, one chick was quickly lost to an unknown cause (most likely predation). As of Thursday, July 14, another chick had not been observed for three days, but since chicks can be notoriously elusive biologists are hopeful it is still alive. The remaining two were doing well, making some big movements this week. They had been staying in the general area of the nest but around the same time that the third chick disappeared, the brood headed south and moved approximately 1,000 meters, then over the past two days have moved back northward, covering almost the entire distance. Piping plovers chicks leave the nest within hours of hatching, running between their primary feeding area at water’s edge to the cover found at the front of the dunes. This behavior makes them extremely vulnerable to predation or unsuspecting motorists driving on the beach, especially since the young are tiny and camouflaged colored to blend in with the sand - and have a habit of freezing and crouching in the face of approaching danger. IBSP staff, state Endangered and Nongame Species Program biologists and volunteers have worked together to monitor the brood (this is what we call the family after the nest has hatched) on a daily basis, in order to provide the most comprehensive data possible. Of note is that the chicks, within two days of hatching, were already using the intertidal area for foraging and have continued to use it throughout the week. To protect the nesting area, IBSP staff erected a vehicle barrier and related signage and raked the beach to smooth out the deep ruts. The wrack line was left intact to allow for optimal foraging opportunity. A temporary restriction of sportfishing vehicles on the beach (pdf, DPF Site) is in place as per U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service guidelines. Evidence of predator activity has been noted on all visits, including fox tracks and harassment of the brood by fish crows and herring gulls. Plovers fledge in about 28 to 35 days, so the ultimate success of the nest is not guaranteed until the young are capable of sustained flight, projected to be toward the end of the first week of August. For more information on Piping Plovers and other beach nesting birds, including annual management reports, visit www.njfishandwildlife.com/ensp/beachnester_info.htm. 2016 August Programs at the Berkeley Branch of the Ocean County Library August 5th, 2016 The Ocean County Gazette - www.ocgazette.news 21 7 PM Join us for a free concert with the folk music duo Andy and Judy Daigle, known as “Andy & Judy”, a Boston area folk duo that perform regularly at coffee houses and concert venues throughout the Northeast.

Andy and Judy – Folk Music You Will Love, Wednesday, August 10th, 22 August 5th, 2016 The Ocean County Gazette - www.ocgazette.news OCC ART GALLERY FEATURES VARIETY OF EXHIBITS TOMS RIVER – The Grunin Center Art Gallery (Building #12), Ocean County College Main Campus, College Drive, Toms River, NJ, is proud to announce its 2015-2016 Gallery Exhibit Schedule featuring local and national artists. Please use Parking Lot #2. Admission to the Gallery is free. Now through August 28, 2016: Lynn Whitfield – A member of the Toms River Artists Community (TRAC), Whitfield is a New Jersey artist who provides unique styling of sculpture and poetry through her eyes using vibrant color and unconventional media. Her work is executed through mixed media that invokes many raw emotions to come to the surface. Her poetry comes from personal experience stemmed from, racism, bullying, re-birth, love, and motherhood. The thoughtful way in which colors, written word, and structure blend together is meant to give the mind a jolt of reality. Deep subject matter being pushed to the forefront by translucent figures allows the poetry to come to life and transcend the norm and hum drum. If asked what she expects her audience to get from her work, Whitfield would emphatically remark, “I want them to walk away with an open mind and to remember that you can either be a victim or victorious and grow from the negative. It is very empowering to take dark and turn it into something beautiful.” A resident of Toms River, Whitfield has exhibited at TRAC and The McConnell Gallery, among others. August 30 to September 28, 2016 (Meet the Artist Reception, Sat, Sept 10, 6-8pm): “Wild Wood: Sculpture by Amy Puccio” – A selftaught artist, Puccio is a graduate of Kean University with a double major in biology and chemistry, working as a product development chemist for nine years and then briefly, as a portrait photographer. After becoming a stay-at-home mom, Puccio started working parttime as a picture framer, learning on the job. She began creating art with picture frame moulding scraps while working in frame shops and in a contemporary art gallery, building her first recycled-wood sculpture in 2006.

Cash prizes in the form of gift cards will be awarded, with a $175 top prize and $50 for honorable mention in each of the three artist categories. “This art exhibit is part of Stockton University’s ongoing initiative on economic inequality,” said Oliver Cooke, associate professor of Economics, who co-chairs the university’s initiative with Carra Leah Hood, assistant provost and associate professor of Writing. “Stockton is one of over 20 colleges and universities across the country seeking to engage college and university campuses and their broader communities in discussing, debating, and exploring the complex causes and consequences of economic inequality,” Cooke said. “The artists whose work appears in this exhibit will share what they see and understand about economic and other forms of inequality, presenting viewers with visual stories of struggle and survival and love amidst, at times, chaotic odds,” said Hood. “An artist’s vision can tease out subtlety of emotion and, in doing so, teach us new ways of seeing and knowing ourselves and others, NEED A LIFT Karing with Kindness NEED A LIFT - STAIRLIFTS, LIFT CHAIRS, RAMPS, GRAB BARS WE INSTALL Call: 732-288-1600 Ext: 1006 Ocean County Office 2801 Route 37 East, Toms River, NJ 08753 • Tel: 732-288-1600 Atlantic County Office • Tel: 609-601-2150 700 New Road, Lynwood, NJ 08221 www.karingwithkindness.com Email: [email protected] imagining different -- more just and equitable -- worlds, and acting to change the contours of our communities.” There will be a panel discussion followed by awards and a reception on Friday, Oct. 14 at 4 p.m. at the Arts Garage.

An acclaimed book, Terminal Bar – A Photographic Record of New York’s Most Notorious Watering Hole and a Sundance award winning short film documentary award, The Terminal Bar, have both resulted from his works. Even Martin Scorcese used the Terminal Bar in his film, Taxi Driver. From Nadelman’s vantage point as a bartender at the Terminal Bar at the corner of Eighth Avenue and West 41st. Street, he shot 2600 photographs with his $85 Pentax. His works have been the subject of a New York Times article, whose headquarters, ironically, now stands on the former site of the bar. Taken from 1962 until 1981, his photographs have long been recognized as historically significant. Along with the “sooty, sticky-floored life” images taken off the streets in front of the Terminal Bar, Nadelman is also displaying sensitive images of the World Trade Center, pre-9/11. A reception will be held at the Waretown Branch Library on Monday, August 8 at 7:30 pm and it is open to the public. These programs are free and open to the public.

Galloway, N.J. - Against the backdrop of campaign debates concerning the size and direction of government, many New Jerseyans do not recognize the government benefits they receive, according to a study released today by the William J. Hughes Center for Public Policy at Stockton University. Nearly 60 percent of the New Jerseyans surveyed denied ever having used the services of a government social program. Yet 68 percent of those who denied receiving such benefits had participated in one or more programs, the study found. These benefits are often invisible, either because recipients view them as entitlements or because they are delivered indirectly rather than through government bureaucracies. “Your government social program is my entitlement,” summarized David Carr, author of the study, and director of Research and Policy Analysis for the Hughes Center. The report is based on a survey of 812 New Jersey residents and its findings are consistent with a 2008 national survey conducted by Suzanne Mettler, a professor in the government department at Cornell University. Survey results suggest that respondents’ understanding that they are participating in a “government social program” varies widely by program characteristics and means of implementation. New Jersey residents were most aware of the traditional social support programs targeting the needs of the economically disadvantaged. They were much less likely to identify programs such as Social Security, Unemployment Benefits, Student Loans, or the Home Mortgage Interest Deduction as government social programs. • Yankee Candles • Decorative Flags • Toys & Games for all ages • Lego’s • Telescope Beach Chairs • Beach Cruiser Bikes • Bicycle Parts/Accessories • Beach Supplies • Body Boards • Skim Boards • Coolers • Fishing/Crabbing Supplies OPEN ALL YEAR 1205 Grand Central Ave • Lavallette • NJ 08735 732-830-3790 August 5th, 2016 The Ocean County Gazette - www.ocgazette.news 39 WE CATER TO FAMILIES & COUPLES A/C • Heated Pool Wireless Internet Beach Badges • Coffee & Bagels Daily Cable TV • Efficiency Units • Apartments 732-793-7955 Ocean Avenue & L Street • Seaside Park (Close to Funtown Pier & Boardwalk) www.lunamarmotel.com Attention Ocean County Townships, Businesses, Organizations, Clubs & Churches Send us your local news.

Continued.... from page... 38 “Major social programs are invisible to many Americans either because they are attached to universal entitlement or contributory systems, or because the government acts indirectly, through private intermediaries or through indirect instruments such as the tax code,” explained Carr. “As the debates raging in the current presidential primaries remind us, our perceptions of whether or not we benefit from support may shape our position in the continuing debate about the proper scope of government.” The full report, The Invisible Hand of Government, is available at stockton.edu/hughescenter, along with other research and resources.

Its citizens fought for racial justice and against segregation in the south, marched on Washington with Martin Luther King, Jr., protested on the Atlantic City boardwalk with the Mississippi Freedom Democrats, and showcased the first Miss Black America contest. The exhibition is open now through Sept. 28 at the Noyes Arts Garage in Atlantic City, N.J. The exhibition is brought to the African American Heritage Museum of Southern New Jersey in the Arts Garage, at 2200 Fairmount Ave., by Stockton University and the New Jersey Council for the Humanities. “This project is the culmination of over two years of collaboration between the university and the African American Heritage Museum of Southern New Jersey, and demonstrates the commitment Stockton has to our community,’ said Assistant Provost Michelle McDonald. “It also addresses the complicated issue of race relations, not only during what was a critical time in our region’s past but also as an essential topic for ongoing conversation given recent events. I hope it will prompt viewers to consider where we have come from, and how far we have yet to travel.” The show includes the first Miss Black America pageant in 1968, the origins of Martin Luther King Day that same year, and racial conflicts in both Camden and Newark as well as how they fit into the larger context of a national movement. Ralph Hunter, director of the African American Heritage Museum, said: “This exhibition demonstrates the rise and fall of race relations and integration in South Jersey and our nation. It captures the part that Atlantic City played, on the boardwalk and in the convention hall. In fact, the day I saw Fannie Lou Hamer having to leave the Convention Hall building was one of the most exciting days of my life.” John O’Hara, associate professor of Critical Thinking and First Year Studies at Stockton, headed the project, working with graduate students. “The title of this exhibition, ‘A Time for Change,’ evokes the situations and conditions of change in the 1960s, but in looking at the 1964 Democratic National Convention protests, de facto segregation, race and police violence, and urban unrest, it also
