Linda reports on related Perfect Days Japanese Film

Ellen Khalifa says:
"I'm sorry to miss the Japanese toilet discussion. The U.S. has long been behind many other countries in the use of toilet hygiene. But I've noticed more and more people I know installing toilet seat bidets for hygienic or religious reasons. As older people are at increased risk of UTI's, this is one simple home modification that might be effective."

Blumenthal also expressed worry about litigation in regard to the Enclave project. It is located at Potter's Farm in Holmdel. "With regard to the dementia center, there's clearly already been rumblings amongst the public about it. And a portion of the rumblings have been factually false." A member cautioned Blumenthal about continuing his discussion in public.

United Methodist Homes is planning the development known as The Enclave, a dementia care center.
The property is about 19 acres and is located in the R40 B residential agricultural zoning district. After many public hearings, it was approved in a 5-2 vote on October 19, 2022.
The plaintiffs say that the board failed to recognize that granting a variance applying to an entire zoning district is beyond their authority
