Krista Campolatano, Garden Club NOVEMBER 2014 LIONS HEADLines 5 John DeSanto Trustee President October 2014 With the end of 2014 rapidly approaching, the trustees and I are working on the 2015 Budget. We will try to keep the Common Expense Assessment (Maintenance fee) at $125.00, but with the cost of living rising we may have to raise it. We will try everything in our power not to. We plan on presenting the new budget to you during the month of December. There are many projects each trustee would like to put forward to the homeowners. We as trustees must operate within our budget, just like the homeowners in Lions Head Must do. Since July 1, 2014 we have had an abnormal number of our residents not paying their monthly fee on time. After the 10th of the month our Bookkeeper sends out a friendly reminder letter to those who might have forgotten to pay it. Please do not take offense to receiving a reminder letter. It is just that, a reminder. If payment is not received within a week, a stronger letter is sent out to the resident. We are not asking a company or business to pay their bill, but reminding our residents of their obligation of paying the monthly fee. Every homeowner in Lions Head (360) is an owner in the Association of Lions Head North. Our budget is setup to pay the many monthly bills for running the Association, for example, electric, heating & air conditioning, lawn maintenance, snow removal, swimming pool and bus transportation to name a few. There are many costs to operate Lions Head North. It is unfair to those residents who pay their monthly fees on time. We also have some residents who are one and two months late and have not called the office to explain why. When a resident becomes three months behind we turn it over to our lawyers for collection and a lien is placed on their home. We do not like to do that because of the additional costs to our homeowners. That is our last resort! 6 LIONS HEADLines NOVEMBER 2014 Lions Head Association North Petition to the Mayor and Council Lions Head Association North is filing a petition to the Brick Township Mayor and Council to request the Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders to have the Ocean County Dept. of Transportation install a Traffic Signal at the intersection of Beaverson Blvd. and Lions Head Blvd. North, for the safety of the residents of Lions Head Association North, as well as the motoring public, because of the high rate of speed of traffic on Beaverson Blvd. and the many accidents that occur at this location. We believe that this intersection is extremely dangerous, especially for Senior motorists and it is only a matter of time before someone is very seriously injured or killed. This Petition will be in the Administrative office of the clubhouse. Please support this petition by coming in and signing your name and address on it. Farmers Loves Seniors!

The third born in a family of six, Tony was a loner, had no friends, was selfish, an instigator and lived in a world of his own. He was a problem boy from childhood, neither his parents, nor his brothers or sisters could talk any sense into him. At school he managed to keep up his studies and was able to graduate with the rest of the class but did not aggregate with others. He was able to find work, succeeded in maintaining good relations with his superiors but was unable to make good impression with his work to be promoted to a higher position. He bought a motorcycle to travel to and from work and any other conveniences but at other times he was a maniac and a bad influence to others. Tony’s ways had his family convinced to believe that he could never change. He was a handsome good looking fellow but rejected every effort girls made to influence and attract his attention. He joined a motorcycle club but could not keep friendship with other members. He was arrested many times but not for serious crimes. At age twenty-nine Tony’s health began to fail him. He was admitted to the local Hospital and after many tests the Doctor diagnosed that he had heart problems. Few years went by, Tony lived on medications and care. Finally the Doctor decided that the only hope to save Tony’s life would be a heart transplant. He had a long talk with the family and put Tony on a waiting list for a heart donor. Patiently Tony waited for a heart donor but believe it or not his personality and behavior remained the same as ever. No matter how sick he was. Sooner than anticipated word came from the Hospital that they had a heart donor. Tony received a new heart; the Doctor assured the family that the procedure of the surgery went very well and that in a few weeks they could determine better the full extent of the success. Tony felt better and progressed every passing day. Few more months of therapy and Tony fully recovered. He began his daily chores and felt much stronger. A year went by and friends still thought of Tony as the pill of the family, but they were wrong. One day two lady friends of Tony’s family were walking along the neighborhood street spotted a very handsome gentleman laughing and holding the hand of a very lovely and popular neighborhood girl. For curiosity, the two ladies got closer to the couple for a better look. Smiling the gentleman said to the ladies; “Hello Mrs. K. and Mrs. B., how have you been? Do you remember me?” The two ladies held their breath in disbelief, then they called, “Tony is that you?” “Yes” replied Tony, “It is me.” Getting closer the two friends smiled and touched Tony’s arm congratulating him. They knew Tony from childhood and could not believe of the change in his personality. They felt very happy for him and his family. Tony and his family’s efforts to find the heart donor’s family were futile. Then Tony and Clara, his fiancée, began their own investigation and after months of continuous efforts and researches, they came to a very successful conclusion; Tony’s heart belonged to a black young teenager who had died in an auto accident. The teenagers parents did not want to be disclosed. Was Tony’s change of personality attributed to his new heart? Nobody knows, not even Tony himself could explain it. His family is grateful to the donor’s family, the new heart not only changed Tony’s life but the life of his entire family. By the way, Tony and Clara are planning to have the heart donor’s family at the wedding. They are now not only part of heart but they are part of his family.

IT WAS FOUND IN THE BILLFOLD OF COACHPAUL BEAR BRYANT, ALABAMA, AFTER HE DIED IN 1982 The Magic Bank Account Imagine that you had won the following *PRIZE* in a contest: Each morning your bank would deposit $86,400 in your private account for your use. However, this prize has rules: The set of rules: 1. Everything that you didn't spend during each day would be taken away from you. 2. You may not simply transfer money into some other account. 3. You may only spend it. 4. Each morning upon awakening, the bank opens your account with another $86,400 for that day. 5. The bank can end the game without warning; at any time it can say, “Game Over!". It can close the account and you will not receive a new one. What would you personally do? You would buy anything and everything you wanted right? Not only for yourself, but for all the people you love and care for. Even for people you don't know, because you couldn't possibly spend it all on yourself, right? You would try to spend every penny, and use it all, because you knew it would be replenished in the morning, right? ACTUALLY, This GAME is REAL ... Shocked ??? YES! Each of us is already a winner of this *PRIZE*. We just can't seem to see it. The PRIZE is *TIME* 1. Each morning we awaken to receive 86,400 seconds as a gift of life. 2. And when we go to sleep at night, any remaining time is Not credited to us. 3. What we haven't used up that day is forever lost. 4. Yesterday is forever gone. 5. Each morning the account is refilled, but the bank can dissolve your account at any time WITHOUT WARNING... SO, what will YOU do with your 86,400 seconds? Those seconds are worth so much more than the same amount in dollars. Think about it and remember to enjoy every second of your life, because time races 10 LIONS HEADLines NOVEMBER 2014 by so much quicker than you think. So take care of yourself, be happy, love deeply and enjoy life! Here's wishing you a wonderful and beautiful day. Start “spending”.... "DON’T COMPLAIN ABOUT GROWING OLD…!"SOME PEOPLE DON'T GET THE PRIVILEGE! Peace, Gerry Green 6 Bow Dr. October 14, 2014 LIONS HEAD ASSOCIATION NORTH COMMUNITY MEETING Submitted by Ed Masessa The October Community Meeting was held Tuesday, October 14, 2014 at 7:00 pm. The meeting was called to order by President John DeSanto. Dave Aker led in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag, with a moment of silence for our men and women in the Military. Roll call was taken and all Trustees were in attendance. Ed Masessa read the minutes of the last meeting. Motion to accept the minutes were made by Dave Aker, seconded by Joanne Corwin. Tom Delahanty gave the Treasurer’s Report. Total monies we have $809,288.00. Motion to accept the Treasurer’s Report was made by Joanne Corwin and seconded by Ed Masessa. John DeSanto then asked for updates from the various committees. The next Atlantic City trip will be to the Golden Nugget on November 11th. See or call Joan Morrison (732-477-0383) about tickets. Ceramics on Monday and Wednesday are going well. Sewing and knitting on Monday also going well. Everyone is having fun at bowling on Thursdays. No report on the Garden Club except that Krista asked that our “smokers” be careful when smoking outside on the porch area and watch that sparks from cigarettes not light the decorative hay bales. Marie Liede has volunteered to take over the Bocci night – with the help of Bill Matteucci. Phyllis Schue stepped up to take over going to the Mayor’s Advisory Council Meeting. John DeSanto will give her more information. We thank you Phyllis. No one was present from the Control Meeting, but President DeSanto said we are going to start cracking down and eventually start fining the residents who do not conform to the rules about their garbage cans either being kept in the garage or behind a fenced in area on the side of their home. The next Texas Hold-em will be held on Sunday, November 23rd. People are urged to come – it’s only $20 from 1 to 5 pm. Once a month on a Friday night at the Clubhouse, a group of residents are getting together for a “pizza and card night.” They have also gotten together, again on a Friday night to play more cards and order whatever food they want. So far, it’s working out very well. Marie Liede has also volunteered again to host the New Year’s Eve party and will be asking for more volunteers to help. Bob Porcaro reminded everyone that articles for the newsletter must be sent in by the 12th of the month to LIONSHEADNORTH@AOL.COM. There was no Old Business to discuss. Under New Business: We are filing a petition with the Ocean County Department of Transportation to install a traffic light at our front entrance. We have encountered several accidents there and it has become extremely dangerous. John and Tom are going to purchase some new tables for the pool for next summer. New revised Control Committee Rules and Regulations are being printed and will be passed out with the next LHN newsletter. A motion to close the meeting was made by Joanne Corwin and seconded by Dave Aker. The meeting was then opened to the public for questions and answers. Marie Liede has offered to head up a Welcome Committee for new residents to make them aware of our Community and what Lions Head has to offer. No Good Deed goes Untaxed Bad timing on a 529 gift may cut your grandkid’s student aid. Using a tax friendly 529 college savings plan for a grandchild’s education bills is a great way to help with sky-high tuition. But there’s a wrinkle. Any distributions from a grandparent-owned 529 will count as untaxed student income the following year under the federal financial-aid formula. And if your student is receiving aid based on need, that income could shrink this assistance-leading to cuts in grants, work study and subsidized loans-by as much as 50 cents on the dollar. “Distributions can have a chilling impact on aid”, says Kal Chany, author of Paying for College Without going Broke. To avoid that, first determine whether the student is likely to qualify for aid. If so, it is better to contribute to a parent-owned 529, which has less impact on need-based aid-though you lose control over the money. Or, wait until the student’s final year of college, after he or she has applied for aid, before tapping your 529. With total costs at private schools now averaging almost $41,000 per year, students need all the help they can get. HUD Requirements HUD requires that the Association must maintain an accounting of the age of all residents every two years, to maintain its status as an adult community. Residents must ensure that their certification is current or risk losing all privileges. All residents receiving a letter from the Association must come in to the business office with a copy of their Driver’s License and re-certify. The office is open Monday thru Thursday, from 9am to 1pm.

Keep door locked at ALL TIMES – even when you are at home Be on the lookout for suspicious people or vehicles Be ALERT, OBSERVANT, and CARING Report suspicious activity or crimes IMMEDIATELY to Brick Police!! Residents in all adult communities are being asked to report (to the police any unfamiliar or suspicious persons, vehicles or conditions they observe, especially if the people or vehicles are observed near the residence of a neighbor who is not at home. Ask your neighbors to be alert, observant and caring --- and to report any suspicious activity or crimes immediately to the Brick Police Department. If someone suspicious or out of the ordinary is spotted, seniors should call police and provide a description of the person and especially the vehicle the person is driving, if possible. However, no one should try to approach the person. Residents should be vigilant on protecting their homes and property, but do not be a vigilante! When suspecting criminal activities, residents are encouraged to contact Brick Police and not intervene. Keeping an eye out will help reduce and prevent crime. This is because you and your neighbors are the ones who really know what is going on in the area surrounding your home, and are most likely to be the first to see a crime and call for help. By simply watching out for your neighbors during the workday, evenings, vacations or any other absence, you can help reduce crime. Community awareness works through the mutual aid of neighbors watching the property of other neighbors. This has several advantages, including the fact that your neighbors know who you are, what type of car you drive, and who belongs, as a rule, at your residence. A patrol officer driving by your home might not recognize someone as a stranger in your yard. However, an alert neighbor would recognize the person as a stranger. If your neighbor knows you are not at home, they should then call 9-1-1 to alert police of the suspicious activity. 14 LIONS HEADLines NOVEMBER 2014 Residents are never asked to put themselves in harm’s way to prevent crime. They should only observe and report suspicious activity to the Brick Police Department. This leaves the responsibility for confronting and apprehending criminals where it belongs – with our Brick Police Officers. Community Safe Phone Messaging System The Messaging System starts the message based on voice recognition. All of our messages will begin with, “This is a message from Lions Head Association North”. When you answer your phone and say “Hello” the message will begin. If you happen to say “Hello” a few times in a row, it will pause the system. If you are using a cell phone it’s possible, back ground noise could affect the start of the message. The system cannot distinguish between greeting and loud noises in the background. If you experience a long pause try pressing the #2 on your phone. This will replay the message. Newsletter Submissions All articles, reports, items of interest, etc., in short, anything and everything you want to be printed in the Lions Head North Newsletter MUST be sent to the newsletter (lionsheadnorth@aol.com) by the 12th of the month. All items submitted, unless an emergency situation, after the 12th, will be printed in the following month’s newsletter. We are having a problem receiving items on a timely basis and hopefully this will correct the situation. Thank you for your cooperation. Animal Cleanup This is everyone’s community, and when dog owners do not pick up after their animals it is a reflection on everyone in the community. This should not be an issue because it is common courtesy and the responsibility of the dog owner to clean up after their animals. The remains are leaving a vile odor, brown spots in lawns and residents and visitors are stepping on it. Please! Please! Please! Let this be the last reminder. Lions Head Association North, Brick, New Jersey Lions Head North, a retirement community within the town of Brick, NJ, made up of mostly retired couples winding down their remaining years on this Earth. There are some (55 years and older) not ready to retire and are still working, within our community. Some of the residents do not wish to be bothered and do not avail themselves of the facilities, such as the Clubhouse, tennis courts, swimming pool and parties. That is their choice. For the community to function properly there is a great need for people to step forward and volunteer to help in the overall running of the community. I have lived in Lions Head North for 22 years. I believe I have done my share of volunteering over those years and will continue to in the coming years, as long as I am able. Only because I enjoy it and it keeps me going. We need men and women to step forward and say they would like to run events like the Halloween party, Italian night, Bunco, Cards, Bingo and may more affairs that are no longer happening in Lions Head. Maybe you have an idea for a fun night that people in Lions Head would enjoy. Please step forward and get involved in your community. Lions Head North is a Home Owners Association with its own set of bylaws and regulations that the residents (old and new) should obey. Each resident, when moving into Lions Head North received a set of the current Bylaws and the Control Committee rules. We are a community that is protected by law to enforce our own rules and regulations. Examples could be; no commercial vehicles are allowed to park overnight on the streets, even though the township owns the streets, no garbage/recycling cans should be seen from the street and should be kept in the garage or an enclosure, the color of roof shingles or the color you can paint your house and many more. Please read the Bylaws and Control Committee Rules. You may not have had these things where you lived before, but now you live in Lions Head North and must obey the rules and regulations of our community.

Cohen, M.D., director of the Center for the study of Aging and Human Development at Duke University in North Carolina. “Most of us want to be healthy until the end, not live to 100 and be a decrepit wreck.” Low Fat, Low Sugar High fat, low carb. High carb. Plant bases. Mediterranean. Atkins. Ornish. At some point in the past 12 months, at least one study has appeared in a well-respected, peer reviewed medical journal touting the health benefits of each of these completely conflicting diets. Is it any wonder, then, that so many of us have said the heck with it-we may as well have our filet mignon and foie gras while we’re still alive to enjoy them? Well, not so fast, says Walter Willett, M.D., chair of the Department of Nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health. It’s true that the science is confusing. But the very nature of scientific discovery, with nutrition research a subset of that, is that findings build on one another, adding to our total understanding of what constitutes a healthy diet. This, then, is what most of the experts agree is true. Join a laughter Club. Numerous studies have shown that laughter can reduce stress, improve your immune system, even relieve pain. The findings have prompted the proliferation of “laughter clubs” around the globe. Participants, many of them with chronic illnesses, gather together to laugh and do breathing exercises. “Laughter is a way of coping and dealing with difficult situations. It has real benefits on a clinical level,” Cohen says. Turn in early. People who are 50 or older who get 6-9 of sleep a night think better than those who get fewer hours, according to a new study in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine. Sleep seems to strengthen the connections between brain cells, helping older adults process information more readily. And researchers at University Hospital Case Medical Center in Cleveland found that poor sleepers show signs of premature skin aging, including fine lines, uneven skin tone and reduced elasticity. “Sleep seems to help our bodies repair all the things that might have gone wrong during the day,” Cohen notes. Opt for Screenings Over Wellness Exams. “A yearly physical per se has not been demonstrated to be all that helpful” in preventing disease, Cohen points out. A better bet: Get specific screenings for heart disease, and breast and colon cancers, as well as vaccines for flu and shingles. “Plus, check to see if your tetanus vaccine is up-to-date,” he adds. “It has a long duration of effectiveness, but if you live a long time, you might exceed this” Eating Fat doesn’t make you fat. “The whole idea that reducing fat intake is the most important thing you can do was never supported by any good evidence,” says Willett. Nonetheless, that line of thinking drove national nutrition policy for decades and may have contributed to our current health woes, as we raced to replace fat with carbohydrates. Some Fats are better than others. Trans fats, sometimes listed on food labels as “partially hydrogenated oils”, raise “bad” LDL cholesterol, leading to heart disease. So avoid trans fats at all costs. Saturated fats-found in red meat, cheese and bitter-are better than trans fats but still not great. A better bet? Olive Oil. Not all calories are created equal. For decades, the prevailing wisdom has been that people gain weight because they take in more calories than they expend and that it really doesn’t matter what you eat, as long as you don’t eat too much of it. More recent research, though, has showed that “some forms of calories make you store fat more readily than others”, Willett says. “It is possible that a calorie is not a calorie in the sense that some calories make you gain weight and others don’t”. NOVEMBER 2014 LIONS HEADLines 17 A high protein diet is not good either. Recent research from the University of Southern California found that those who ate a protein-rich diet were 4 times as likely to die of cancer as those who consume more modest amounts, a risk equivalent to smoking 20 cigarettes a day. Balance is best. “There’s a tendency in nutrition to ascribe all good or all evil to one aspect of the diet, but that’s never true”, says Willett. Instead go for variety. FirstEnergy Warns Customers Green Dot Card Payment Scam about AKRON, Ohio, Sept. 30, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -FirstEnergy Corp.'s (FE) utilities are warning customers about a scam involving a telephone caller posing as a utility company employee threatening to shut off power unless an immediate payment is made using a pre-paid debit card such as a Green Dot card. Scams involving callers asking for utility bill payment via Green Dot cards have been reported by customers in all of FirstEnergy's service areas from Ohio to New Jersey, which include: Ohio Edison, The Illuminating Company and Toledo Edison in Ohio; West Penn Power, Penn Power, Met-Ed and Penelec in Pennsylvania; Jersey Central Power & Light in New Jersey; Mon Power in West Virginia; and Potomac Edison in West Virginia and Maryland. FirstEnergy and its utilities do not require payment over the phone via specific means, including Green Dot cards. Moreover, FirstEnergy's utilities do not demand payment over the phone to avoid an impending termination of service. "If you receive a call demanding payment via a specific option, including a Green Dot card, it's a scam, and you should report this crime to your local authorities," said Ronald I. Green, vice president, Customer Service, FirstEnergy. "While we may phone a customer whose bill is in arrears to remind them a payment is due, we would explain how a payment can be made using established payment options." FirstEnergy has numerous bill payment options, including: • Pay via smartphone by app or on mobile website. • Pay over the phone with a credit card or checking account using FirstEnergy's automated 18 LIONS HEADLines NOVEMBER 2014 phone system. • Pay at www.firstenergycorp.com with a credit card or checking account. • Pay in person – customers may make payments, for a nominal fee per transaction, at any authorized payment agent location. Fees may vary by individual location. • Pay by mail – customers may choose to receive their bill in the mail and make a payment the same way. Sue Brownfield Jersey Central Power & Light Customer Support (Internal) 3-250-4188 (External) 732-212-4188 HELPFUL HINTS Little trick for fast post-pruning cleanup A simple solution that will save you time and stress when you tidy up your yard this fall: Lay an old sheet, tablecloth or shower curtain under your plants before you start to prune them. All the leaves and twigs will fall onto the fabric, so when you’re finished, you can easily gather up the material and get rid of all the debris at once. Protect wood floors from scratches To keep your dining room chairs from scratching the finish of your wood floors, use a knife to carefully slice a wine cork into thin pieces (about ¼ inch thick), then attach the cork slivers to the bottom of each chair leg with wood glue. The cushiony cork will work as well as store-bought felt furniture pads to keep your floor scratch-free. Double the life of your candles Lighting your home with wonderfully scented candles makes brisk autumn days feel so cozy. To ensure you get the maximum amount of burn time from each candle, try placing them in the freezer for around 3 hours before lighting them. The cold temperature will solidify the wax so it melts more slowly. The result? Your favorite candles will last almost twice as long. Joanne Corwin Trustee Vice President October 2014 The Holidays are just around the corner. Thanksgiving is a time for warm fireplaces, great food, good friends and family conversation, and being grateful for all the things we have, especially our freedom. We pay homage to our service men and women this month and say a prayer for all veterans. Also, please remember those less fortunate than we are. We will have a box in our lobby for donations of non-perishable items and can goods. I don’t like to talk about winter when we are just starting to enjoy the Fall, but you need to think a little ahead about being properly prepared for cold weather. Everyone says we are in for a lousy, cold, snowy winter. Start making a list of items you may need, salt for the sidewalks, battery operated lanterns – maybe some of you still have them from Hurricane Sandy. Candles are dangerous, especially if you have pets in the house. Always keep a small supply of bottled water on hand. Don’t wait until the last minute to run to the stores – BE PREPARED!! Now is the time to look for those favorite comfort food recipes. The smell of stews and soups on cold days will make you feel “warm and fuzzy.” Also, please remember that we do not plow the driveways unless the snow is over 3” deep and the main roads in the development have been plowed. Don’t forget, Daylight Savings Time ends on Sunday, November 2nd at 2:00 am. Please turn your clocks back one hour. The office will be closed for the Thanksgiving Holiday Thursday, November 27th and Friday, November 28th. Happy “Turkey Day” everyone. If you are traveling to family or friends, please drive safely. HUMOR FOR YOU --Somebody has said that there are only two kinds of people in the world. There are those who wake up in the morning and say, “Good Morning Lord,” and there are those who wake up in the morning and say, “Good Lord, it’s morning!” While driving in Pennsylvania, a family caught up to an Amish carriage. The owner of the carriage obviously had a sense of humor, because attached to the back of the carriage was a hand painted sign, “Energy efficient vehicle: runs on oats and grass. Caution: Do not step in exhaust.” People want the front of the bus, the back of the church, and the center of attention. My wife sat down next to me a I was flipping channels. She asked, “What’s on TV?” I said, “Dust.” And then the fight started…… It’s all in the chip Coming soon to a wallet near you: the chip. Already widely used in Europe, Asia and elsewhere outside the US, this fancy microchip makes your debit or credit card extremely difficult to clone or copy. It is nearly impossible for someone to create a fake card and then use it for fraudulent transactions. While the new cards are safer to use, there are differences from the swipe-and-sign cards you have been used to: You’ll have to insert the card into a terminal that reads the chip’s data and, in many cases, acts as your signature. You’ll also need to punch in a PIN to confirm your identity. For online or telephone purchases, you may be asked for the security code on the card. You’ll still get a receipt. About 20 million chip cards are in use in the US, out of 400 million accounts, but banks must issue new cards and merchants must be equipped to handle them by October 2015, or they’ll be liable for any fraud that arises from the old card. If you’re planning an international trip anytime soon, ask for the new card, because some overseas merchants have stopped acceptin plastic without the chip.
