“Because of how kind-hearted Frank was, we united as a class and were inspired to keep his spirit alive with everything we do,” said class president Emilia Beszterda. “We can appreciate that over the many years together we have a closeknit community that I and many others truly believe is remarkable and unmatched,” added salutatorian Joyce Hwang. “Few can say that they’ve experienced this kind of unity as students...we will always remember; the loss of Frank was a challenge we overcame together.” Of the 195 members of the

Hope you like LEGO, Mineola, because they’ll be in prominent view on the big screen at the third annual Movie Night at the Park in Mineola on Friday, July 18, with a rain date of Saturday, July 19. The free event will start in Wilson Park at dusk and feature The LEGO Movie. The first two films shown in 2012 and 2013, were The Lorax and Despicable Me, respectively. “Bring your lawn-chairs and set up because it’s going to be a great night,” Mineola Chamber of Commerce President Bill Greene said. “We’re expecting a couple hundred people to show. Last year we had 350 come.” The Village of Mineola and Chamber-sponsored event will have a 25-foot tall inflatable screen, with snacks and refreshments available from the Mineola Junior Fire Department. Greene feels the event achieves two things: a fun movie for families and community engagement with businesses. “We thought the movie night would be a great way to give something back to the community and show the businesses are community-minded.” Greene said. “The facility by the pool in Wilson Park is great.”

“Today’s a day of endings and beginnings, a day full of mixed feelings,” Mineola High School Principal Ed Escobar said on Satuday, June 28 on stage at the Tilles Center at C.W. Post during the school’s 123rd commencement exercises. Mixed due to the happiness shared by the 195 graduates up on stage, but with a small touch of bittersweet due to the absence of one high-profile member: Frank Trivigno, who was tragically killed in an accident in upstate New York last year at the age of 17.

For Maestro Louis Panacciulli, the 30th anniversary of the Nassau Pops Symphony Orchestra is not just about giving back; it’s paying it forward. That’s his message in honoring war veteran Bryan Dilberian at the Tribute to America concert and Village of Mineola Fireworks Show at Memorial Park in Mineola on Friday, July 11 at 8 p.m. “Bryan’s a great American,” Panacciulli said.

Emily Abrams plans on spending her summer volunteering at a hospital.

Marissa Karaz wants to learn how to surf over the vacation.

Students Get Set For Summer

By SANSKRITI BIMAL

mineola@antonnews.com

The long, leisurely and lovely days of summer will soon be here. It’s an ideal time for tanning, hanging out with friends and watching teen movie marathons. However, it’s also a good time for students to spread their wings. Karen Cordani, a guidance counselor at Mineola High School, recommends students try new, or build on old, hobbies during the time off. “As you make your holiday plans, allow time to expand your horizon,” Cordani said. “Explore new interests or focus on current passions in the field of academics, sports or arts. Choose

activities based on your interests and aptitude, not what you think might impress an admissions officer.” The break is the perfect time to prepare for the next school year and the future. While many teenagers are looking forward to catching the warm rays of the sun, Emily Abrams, a third-year student, will be working off a different kind of radiation, the electromagnetic kind. She has planned to volunteer, for a second consecutive year, at Winthrop University Hospital. “I get an opportunity to experience a hospital setting, to help out the hospital team, and to explore a possible career choice,” Abrams said. Erica Barron, also in her junior

year and with dreams of becoming a nurse someday, is looking forward to interning in a doctor’s office. After months of stress, papers, and exams though, summer opens up an opportunity to start new activities too. Marissa Karaz, a sophomore, intends to attend a surf camp out on Long Beach, something she has not been able to do in the past. “I’ve always wanted to try surfing, and summer is the perfect opportunity because I’m not busy with school,” Karaz said. For senior Joyce Hwang though, travel seems to be the way to go for the break. Hwang plans to venture to the Dominican Republic and Haiti on

a mission trip to work with children in impoverished villages, and subsequent to that, travel to California to visit family and friends. “On my mission trip, I’m really looking forward to building relationships with the children in the Dominican Republic and Haiti.” she said. “The whole travel experience, I am sure, will be very enriching.” But Cordani said while the time off allows students to get busy with personal interests, it’s still important to have fun with loved ones. “Utilize the lengthy summer vacation productively,” she said, “however, take time out to relax and enjoy with friends and family.”

Fourth Of July Parade In Williston Park The Williston Park Fire Department announced it will hold its annual Independence Day Parade on Friday July 4, with the parade stepping off at 9:30 a.m. The parade will begin at Lehigh and Broad Streets in the village and proceed through the neighborhood. The parade route concludes in front of Fire Headquarters and is followed by a short program in which village officials and other invited

dignitaries speak on the history and greatness of our nation and the importance of remembering the steps taken by our founding fathers to give birth to a way of life we now enjoy today as Americans. Community groups are invited to participate in the parade and are encouraged to bring banners, floats, bands, and other festive materials to carry with them in the parade.

MINEOLA AMERICAN - JULY 2 - 8, 2014

CLASS OF 2014 from page 1 graduating class, 132 received advanced regents diplomas, 37 with distinction. “There’s excitement about actually graduating, but many of you are anxious about the future,” Escobar continued. “You started high school wondering how you would fit in, and then the years pass by and you began to worry about SATs, ACTs and college applications.” Valedictorian Kristen Sze-Tu offered advice to her classmates, several of which were pearls of wisdom from her grandfather: show respect, continue to inspire others, look for a silver lining, remember your roots and to branch out. “When I graduated from middle school, I was convinced that Mineola High School was not the school for me,” she said. “I wanted to move to the city or enroll in private school; anywhere but here. But I stuck out the first year and went through the second year and made it to this final day of graduation. Staying in Mineola was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.” Breaking from his tradition of

telling anecdotes about the members of the class, School Superintendent Dr. Michael Nagler instead chose a musical theme of popular lyrics for his speech, inspired by the performance of “Let It Go” from the Disney movie, Frozen that was performed at the spring musical and quoting lyrics from One Republic – “(who) reminds us to dream big” – Katie Perry – “reminds us to believe in ourself” – Billy Joel – “to cherish great moments but know there are many more to come” – the “Hanna Montana”-era Miley Cyrus – “the importance of perseverance” – and even Marshall Mathers (aka Eminem) – “to live in the moment.” “We all have special talents and gifts; don’t hide them, discover them, embrace and cultivate them,” Dr. Nagler said. Musical presentations of “In My Life” and “Unwritten” with the audience clapping along to the beat were performed by Kathryn Barnwell, Rebecca Bastos, Matthew Eisen, Joyce Hwang, Douglas Llanes, Nicole Mengler, Joyce Rhim, Michelle Senra, Natalie Sequeira, Bonnie Small, Rebecca Torres and Christina Vafiadis.

Are You Really Saving Money on Home Heating?

Board of education President Artie Barnett, whose daughter Kerri was one of the graduates, spoke from the view of the parents: “Eighteen years ago, we held you with two hands while your hand could barely wrap around our finger,” he said. “Seventeen years ago, we held you by your two hands as you went and took your first steps. And 13 years ago we held you with one hand as you walked into your first day of school. Then we reluctantly let go and watched the teacher take that hand. Since then you have stood and moved forward—mostly on your own— you’ve made friends, made decisions, made mistakes and make changes —and each of you will remember a teacher who made a life-long impact on you. Years from now, many of you will have children of your own, you will hold down your jobs and now and then you will have some tough days; it happens and you’ll deal with it. At the end of the day you may be restlessly trying to sleep wondering what tomorrow will bring. And then you’ll fall asleep and in your dreams you’ll be back, walking the halls of Mineola High School in a simpler time, surrounded by friends. When

Salutatorian Joyce Hwang you wake up, you’ll get a new day and a new way to approach anything you may be dealing with. The world is out there for you to own, like a present you get every day. All you have to do is open it, embrace it and go for it.” For more photos from the Mineola High School graduation ceremony, visit facebook.com/mineolaamerican

MINEOLA AMERICAN - JULY 2 - 8, 2014

CONCERT from page 1 Dilberian, a triple amputee, was on patrol in Afghanistan near Kandahar in July 2011 where he hit an improvised explosive device, losing his legs and left arm. Dilberian attended a Pops concert at Chaminade High School in April, in honor of Sgt. Carl Duda. He received a hi-tech wheelchair outfitted with tank tracks. Dilberian will be given one next week. The village brought in Bay Fireworks again this year to conduct the fireworks show. They conducted events during the Mineola Centennial Celebration in 2006 and past Summer Concert Series events. “It’s a great night for Mineola,” Mayor Scott Strauss said. “We owe [Bryan] a debt that can never be repaid. This community and country appreciate the sacrifice he made. How can you not want to be there for that. Helping disabled veterans is paramount.” This year’s display will include the additional aerial displays and extended time featured at last year’s show. Fireworks will begin after the concert concludes. “Every year, the village gives more and more of a commitment to the program,” Panacciulli said. “They help a lot. The Chamber of Commerce has been behind us.”

Panacciulli pointed to his family’s military service history as a driving force behind his appreciation for those who fought for the United States. His parents emigrated from Italy in the 1920s. Panacciulli’s father Joe was drafted into the U.S. Navy serving in World War II, essentially fighting against his homeland (Italy was part of the Axis Powers in WWII). Lou said his dad didn’t waver in his support for America and hopes younger generations remember those who fought for their freedom. “He always loved the U.S. and that’s the way I grew up,” Lou said. “I’m a very patriotic person and I think that’s being lost these days. One of the missions of the Nassau Pops is being thankful to the people who serve this country.” Panaciulli’s son Michael also served two years in the U.S. Navy on a missile cruiser in Japan. Lou’s family roots are what drive his appreciation for freedom. “I’m stuck between two sailors,” he joked. The concert will feature traditional American classics, including “The Star Spangled Banner” and “America the Beautiful.” But, it will also feature lesser-played pieces, like “Thin Alabaster Cities Gleam” and “Flight of Valor.” “In Their Honor,” by Carl Strommen, is dedicated to the victims of the Sept., 11, 2001 attacks.

MOVIE from page 1 Chamber Vice President Tony Lubrano feels the event “fits into the flavor of Mineola.” He’s from Plainview, but thinks the village emits a different community aura. “People who live in Mineola don’t realize how much of a small-town atmosphere exists here, between the Christmas tree lighting, the Halloween party, the street fair,” he said. “There’s a lot of things that go

on in Mineola that you’d expect in a small Midwestern town.” Mayor Scott Strauss expects it to surpass the last two movie nights. “It’s going to be a nice night,” he said. “Hopefully the weather cooperates. I want to be as good if not better than last year.” Parents appreciate events like the movie night. “To have an outdoor event like this and it’s free is great,” Cynthia DaCruz said.

Movie Night at the Park is Friday, July 18 at sunset in Wilson Park.

A fireworks show will follow the concert.

In the rows of motorcycles in the Yamaha, Suzuki, Victory and Can-Am of Mineola, the already popular shop is getting another boost for business, but this time it’s for a more traditional brand. A four-day-long grand opening that started on June 24 highlighted the latest addition to the 49-year-old store, located on the corner of Jericho Turnpike and Sayville Road, which is the American-made, Iowa-based Indian Motorcycles. The introduction of the company, which filed for bankruptcy in 1953, comes as a part of an effort to revamp the Indian name across the country after being purchased by Polaris Industries, according to Phil Zegarek, the store’s owner. Festivities included demo rides, raffles and giveaways. Zegarek, a Williston Park resident, said after coordinating the deal with Polaris over the last year and a half, he is happy to host the latest Indian models considering the long history of the company and what the name means to bikers and hobbyists. “Indian is an iconic brand,” he said. “It’s truly an American product with very nostalgic styling with very modern technology.” This includes keyless ignition, 19A Bluetooth audio compatibility and anti-lock brakes, Zegarek said.

Standards Are Not Curriculum Mineola School District

SUPERINTENDENT MICHAEL NAGLER in commercials). Grooming and training the right horse to jump is critical to successful completion of the course. In teaching, the horse is the curriculum, and the rider is the teacher. Not only do you need the right horse you need significant time to develop the relationship between the rider and the horse. The most successful equestrians have a symbiotic relationship between rider and horse, each knowing how the other will react to a given obstacle. Teachers and the curriculum are no different. Teachers need to be comfortable in the content they are teaching- but more importantly need to know if the curriculum is meeting the standards. Sometimes, no matter how well trained, a rider can be thrown by a

horse. The horse believes that the obstacle is too hard to overcome. In these cases the rider’s patience and experience is most crucial. It is imperative that our curricula address the students that may have difficulty meeting the standards. In these cases our teachers are the most important. We need to develop appropriate materials that enable our student to progress and exceed the standards. Starting now and continuing throughout the summer we will provide time and opportunities for teachers to work with his/her grade level curriculum. We are committed to making sure the materials we teach are engaging and appropriate. Most importantly we want our daily

assessments to measure standards and track student growth in the standards. We have helped develop a software program that will allow us to do this electronically. We are convinced that all our students can meet the standards. We will continue to modify and refine our curriculum to make sure our students are properly prepared. Our teachers and administrators will continue to be a vital part of developing curricula that is appropriate and challenging to help students meet and exceed the standards. I am confident that our teachers and administrators are up for this task. This column previously appeared on “Nagler’s Notions” at blog.mineola. k12.ny.us/?p=1626

I am still surprised how many people mistakenly believe that the Common Core Standards and the State’s Common Core Curriculum are the same thing; they are not. The State has provided a curriculum guideline that may be followed to help children reach the standards. Districts may or may not decide to use these curricula material; it is completely a local decision. Mineola has used a combination of State materials and our own teacher created materials. I analogize the standards and curriculum to Equestrian show jumping. In show jumping the course is comprised of a set of obstacles that every horse must complete; the obstacles are not moved, lowered or changed to accommodate the horse. The common core standards were created with the same premise; a universal set of requirements that every student should meet. Obviously there are many other factors that determine whether those standards are met. The most important ingredient to successful show jumping is the horse, followed quickly by the rider. Not every horse can be a show jumper. You wouldn’t ask a Clydesdale to jump fences (although some do

| EDITORIAL Summer Starts When The Sky Lights Up While June 21 is considered the official start of summer, the real fun doesn’t kick off until bottle rockets, firecrackers, roman candles, sparklers and jumping jacks are lighting the night sky on July 4th, honoring the adoption of the Declaration of Independence 238 years ago. Rarely does it rain on July 4th (we’re having a hard time remembering when it did), which makes the night that much more sweet. You can step out your door and find a fireworks celebration almost anywhere in Nassau County. Sitting in a lawn chair at Memorial

Park in Mineola for the concert series and fireworks show (this year it’s on July 11) marks a time-honored tradition of lounging around, forgetting about the work week ahead. The cotton candy and toy cart makes its way around the perimeter of the park, while the Good Humor and Mister Softee trucks sit nearby, giving the kids a bridge between the music and firework-filled sky. The Nassau Pops put on quite a show each year. From kid smiles to adult gazes, Independence Day pushes family’s towards the heart of summer, one pop and sizzle at a time.

| LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Too Much Of The Same Today The events in Iraq the past few weeks took me back to a different time and place. During the Vietnam War various USAF air bases in Vietnam and Thailand enlisted the aid of Cambodian civilians who were sympathetic to the United State’s cause to assist the American military with various tasks required for our war effort. At the conclusion of the US involvement in Vietnam in 1975 these folks went home to their homeland just when the communist revolutionary Khmer Rouge leader Pol Pot came to power and created havoc in the country. Many in the military who worked side by side with them or knew them only casually still hope and pray that they made it out of Pol Pot’s “killing fields” alive. I was reminded again of the plight of these Cambodians when I saw the newspapers and watched the TV reports of the bloodshed going on in Iraq and especially when I heard the barbarians claiming they executed 1,700 Iraqi soldiers. I wonder how many of our military had worked side by side with these troops or who knew and befriended civilians who died or will die in these

ongoing killings. Unfortunately, like the generation before them, most of them will never know. — Bill Viggiano Williston Park

Take Care Of The Veterans I see from a recent edition of the Mineola American that a decision on veterans tax exemptions has been tabled by the Mineola School Board. This is a very petty way to treat the veterans that put their lives on hold to serve their country in its time of need (just like the first responders) so why deny the veterans a small exemption from the crippling school taxes which in some cases doubled after reassessment. How typical of those who never served to dismiss veterans as a bunch of old has beens. If not for the veterans most of them would not be in such a nice lifestyle today. Those who never had to serve will never realize the sacrifice the veterans made so that everyone can have their freedoms in all things in this day and age. When the statewide reassessment of properties took place some years ago the adjustment left veterans in many cases with less of an exemption, but Ed Mangano corrected this

on the county level when he was elected. I have personally thanked Ed Mangano for his recognition of veterans. I brought the subject up at a village meeting when Mayor Martins was presiding and he gave a speech about how he supported veterans rights but his hands were tied because the village followed statewide guidelines. I told him I was not expecting any special favors only that the formula be brought up to date and in line with the re-assessments. Mr Sal Cataldo at the same meeting got up immediately afterwards and said that as a veteran he did not mind the cut. How nice for him to be well enough off to be able to make this magnanimous gesture, but it certainly did not help others less fortunate financially that he is supposed to represent in his veterans group. Last year at village election time, I invited Trustee George Durham into my house and I explained that the adjustment by the village had not been made, he promised to discuss it with Mayor Scott Strauss, so far I have not heard a word one way or another, so much for campaign promises. Nations have historically called on their young men to serve their country and afterwards casting them

aside, it is rampant in this country with our present crop of returning vets, why can we not honor them and treat them fairly? We give tax exemptions to police, firemen and ambulance volunteers why not take care of those who left home to defend your liberty and freedom, give them a fair shake is all I ask. If you are in charge, take command and look out for those who you are less fortunate than you, the Veterans stood up for you now look after us. I pray that the Board of Education and the Village of Mineola will see this and do the right thing. — Peter Burnside Mineola

SALUTE TO VETERANS AN ANTON COMMUNITY NEWSPAPERS SPECIAL SUPPLEMENT • JULY 2 - 8, 2014

My Grandfather’s Last Thoughts Editor’s note: Michael Pevsner of Massapequa Park recently earned first place in Anton Community Newspapers and Cockpit USA’s essay contest about military heroes. Pevsner submitted the following essay about his grandfather, Private First Class Harold Hibler, who served in WWII, in the Army’s 101st Infantry. Hibler was a survivor of the Battle of the Bulge and received a Purple Heart for his actions. Hibler was discharged in 1945. He passed away on Aug. 23, 2008. My grandfather’s last thoughts could have been...of shrieking bullets overhead and seeing his young comrades so alive one moment, covered in blood the next during the Battle of the Bulge. It could have been leaving school at so early an age, taking any job to earn what wages he could to support his family during the Great Depression. It could have been of his private war with heart disease, finally succumbing after a valiant struggle. I hope, however, that my grandfather’s last thoughts were of the family he created and the loving legacy he left us all. Harold Hibler, PFC, was a man of integrity, hard work, and thrift. A decorated war hero who survived the Battle of the Bulge, went on to work his entire life, and still found time for his family. A man whose biggest desire in the world was to see his children and grandchildren receive the education that he did not have the chance to get, and to see them benefit from his lifetime of dedicated work. One who is remembered as a role model, a man whom I am proud to call my grandfather. One of my grandfather’s core values was hard work. As a child of the Depression, and a man who constantly worked from the age of 18, until he was 83, at jobs ranging from selling papers in the streets of Brooklyn, to owning a gas station supply shop in Queens. He held a serious work ethic in the highest regard, and that was not lost on me. He encouraged me to challenge myself and not waste a moment, goals I am reaching now by maintaining grades in four AP classes, working two jobs, and devoting countless hours of my time to my school’s Key Club; organizing events, collecting money for UNICEF, ringing the Salvation Army bell in December and running my

school’s Key Club website. All of these things gave my grandfather pride in me, and continue to give me pride in myself. My grandfather took me to work with him in Queens all of the time; more recently, he congratulated me on my first official job, at Massapequa News. Shortly after that, he called me from the hospital, while he had his own matters to deal with, to congratulate me on getting yet another job, at CVS. The last material object I showed my grandfather was my first pay stub from CVS. Never have I seen anyone smile as brightly. Another virtue my grandfather bestowed upon me was that of prudence. Again, as he was a child of the Depression-era, waste was not tolerable in his house. He firmly believed that one man’s refuse was another’s treasure, and on my own scavenger hunts through his basement, I have found vintage designer clothes, license plates, car parts, tools and even a portable record player, most of which he saved from the misfortune of spending eternity in a landfill. He was more resourceful than a Hollywood spy, and I inherited that sense. I have always followed after him in being careful not to throw away something that can be useful a second time, especially if that something can bring back memories or be resold as a collectible. One of my hobbies is collecting sneakers; my grandfather always wanted to see me sell a pair of rare sneakers for more than what I paid. Looking now at the values of some sneakers that I have accumulated, if I had the heart to part with a pair, I could do just that, turn my sneaker collection into an investment. Beyond that, among my most treasured possessions are random little journals and notebooks that my grandfather got as souvenirs from stores, business contacts, and promotions, each signed “love always”, that now house both memories of him and my written words spanning from the moment I was able to write, to present day. My grandfather was, and still is, a role model. The things I hold closest to my heart are the wealth of memories I have of him and the lessons and characteristics he passed on to me.

HOROSCOPE By Holiday Mathis

WORD FIND Try r your luck ry

ARIES (March 21-April 19). There’s so much going on this week that you may feel as though maintaining your possessions just takes too much of your time. Do it anyway. Neat and clean environs reinforce the mindset that you’ve got your act together. Your responsible attitude makes you attractive and successful.

Solution: 9 Letters

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your fantasy life is strong, and you could spend a good deal of energy building castles in the air. You can’t live in them, but some of the ideas are practical enough to apply once you touch back down to Earth. A healthy balance means allowing yourself to dream but commanding yourself to take practical steps, as well. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). This week shows you in an ambitious mood, and you’ll require much of yourself. Of course, it’s difficult to make big things happen if you are distracted by every enticement along the way. Because you’re after the larger experiences of life, you feel the need to bring your lower appetites into control. CANCER (June 22-July 22). This week you have something that really needs to be accomplished and a message to match the task. There will be no such thing as over-communicating it. To keep yourself and everyone around you on purpose, repeat yourself often. Find new ways to say it. With constant communication, you will get there.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Empowering talk leads to exciting developments in a relationship. Things really are getting better. Practice describing your experience, feelings and needs. Avoid claiming that another person is “driving you crazy” or “making you mad.” The more responsibility you can take for your own state the better off you’ll be. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The mightiest warrior knows that battling isn’t the only way to victory. Some of the best victories are handed over. Negotiation would be better in this week’s case, but if you must go to the mat, offer your opponent nothing to resist, and there won’t be much of a fight. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll gladly deliver good news. As for the bad news, you might leave it for someone else to tell — or not — hoping that by ignoring it, depriving it of your breath and attention, it will somehow disappear. Sometimes this method works! At least if you focus yourself on the positive there will be far less room for the negative. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll have a knack for speaking in the vernacular most appropriate to your company this week, and you’ll be around many types. There is a Malayan proverb that goes, “Trumpet in a herd of elephants; crow in the company of cocks; bleat in a flock of goats.” You’ll do it all! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The way you feel about a loved one is similar to the way you feel about music. You know there is meaning there, but the meaning is beyond words. Go ahead and try putting it into words anyway. Your loved one will benefit from knowing that your affections run deep. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’re on the fast track. Creativity is flowing, and your social network is growing. Pretty soon you won’t be able to tell the difference between your business relationships and your social relationships. Pool resources with family, colleagues and friends. You’ll get there faster getting there together. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You may feel somewhat depleted at the start of the week, but don’t worry. The well of joy inside you hasn’t dried up; it’s just that you can’t reach it with a broken rope. New tools are needed. Where will you find them? Almost anywhere you look. Your intention to be happy will lead to many fortuitous discoveries.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS Before you make any radical changes, ask yourself, “Is this something I can do for the rest of my life?” Permanent changes will be life enhancing, while committing to something short term will be more effort than it’s worth. An August business endeavor is a win as long as you don’t break your own investment rules. October brings a fortuitous meeting, and romance will sweep into your life. January endeavors require heart, faith and sweat, but they will be some of your best times this year. COPYRIGHT 2014 CREATORS.COM

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You are devoted and true, and yet there is something inside you that is weary from doing the right thing. Being good doesn’t always feel good. You’ll start to wonder whether there’s such a thing as being too good. The malaise you feel is a sign that you need a break. Demand less of yourself this week.

Arnold Standard represents you before the NYS Workers' Compensation Board and/or US and NYS Department of Labor, to settle penalties which have been imposed --- for a fraction of the original amounts. Our work also includes performing a review of the circumstances prior to lodging the correct appeal. We achieve closure at the local level WITHOUT referral for FICA correction. Our initial consultation with you is conducted without any charge. New York State is going back up to SIX YEARS & assessing major penalties for the above subjects. This happens when you have classiﬁed people as Independent Contractors & individuals have been treated as self-employed, or there has been a lapse in coverage. Frequently, there are minimum wage and/or overtime considerations because of time and attendance record keeping errors. We manage the entire process from ﬁeld audit through the appeal phase with the Department. Our record in this area is excellent, and there is no upfront cost, because we are only paid after we save you money.

A fellow in his late 50s, a successful salesman in the medical-equipment field, stopped by my office recently to discuss addiction. He has been reading my columns on the topic, and wanted to share some thoughts. He is an alcoholic who has been sober for several decades, and now works with others trying to beat addictions, most commonly, heroin. “The story is always the same,” he said, nodding his head knowingly. “Always the same.” By that, he means how people become addicts to substances ranging from alcohol to opiates and what they do to deny it, hide it and ultimately get in deeper and deeper. Listen to the stories of addicts, he said, and whether it’s a Hollywood star who gulps Grey Goose from a water bottle or a suburban kid copping oxycontin out of medicine cabinets, the trajectory of the tragedy is always the same. Then, there comes a point where some addicts get clean and many don’t. Here, all of the stories aren’t the same. Sometimes, with luck, the parents can step in, and after trying everything, try yet something else. And it works. Add in support from people like my sober salesman, and the story doesn’t have to end in tears. Here’s one such story from a local mom: As a parent of a heroin addict, I have been following with great interest your series on addiction. The disease of addiction is very insidious. It starts out slowly and then takes over every facet of the addict’s life and the family’s life as well. Our family went through many years of pain and suffering. I don’t think that words can describe the helplessness that one feels as they watch a loved one self-destruct. As a family unit we went to all of the family components of every rehab that my child was involved in—the words can be helpful, but if the actions of the addict don’t change, you still have that feeling of helplessness. Unfortunately, our society looks at addiction as if it should be controlled by the addict—as if they can willingly just turn off that switch that makes them use and become healed. People you think of as friends don’t give you the same comfort they would were your child suffering from cancer, diabetes or any other disease. “You, the addict, should fix it yourself.” Our insurance companies think that patients should be cured after

the

JOHN OWENS three or four days of detox. They won’t pay for extended care, and unless the family has thousands and thousands of dollars to pay for their loved one’s care, with no guarantee of a cure, you are on your own. There is a twofold problem with most of the rehab facilities in the New York: They all seem primarily concerned about the financial aspect of the case, and most of the programs are rather punitive in nature. After a particularly bad run, I took my son to a facility in North Palm Beach, Fla. Their whole approach to the addict is so different from anything I have seen in New York. They are genuinely concerned with the addict’s recovery. The clients live in an apartment and are responsible for taking care of cooking, cleaning and such. In addition to therapy sessions, they go to outside Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, and are encouraged to get a sponsor. They have an opportunity to meet many sober people. They also do extracurricular activities, such as going to the gym, movies and bowling. They get to see and live a sober life. This can only be accomplished with the client’s willingness to do step work and participate in these groups. After 90 days there, my son came home a changed person. He is actively involved in AA, this includes working the steps. He has made many new sober friends. He is now clean almost eight months. I applaud your efforts to bring attention to this terrible disease. I want to let people know that there can be a light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you. This is a story worth sharing. Any other readers who have a story to share, please email it to me. Your insights and experiences are important. And your anonymity is assured.

Leaf Blower Flap Isn’t Just About Noise For over 40 years, gas-powered leaf blowers have been a focal point for irritation and frustration over neighborhood noise. The issue is percolating up all over the country again, and now it’s also about swallowing doody. Gas-powered leaf blowers aren’t the only gardening and landscaping apparatus that use loud two-stroke engines (it takes two piston movements to complete one cycle of combustion), but it’s pretty easy to understand what lawn mowers and chainsaws do and why they are used. The purpose, efficiency and effectiveness as a gardening tool of using powerful blowers on a typical 50by-100-foot property is more mysterious. Even the phrase “leaf blowers” is a misnomer. They don’t blow just leaves. They blow everything that’s on and in and around your lawn into the air, where it lingers for hours until it settles onto the neighbor’s car and their kids’ faces. Mold, pollen, seeds, little rocks, dead bugs, live ticks, it’s all launched at high speed. The polite word for it is “fugitive dust,” but on the street we call it “rodent feces,” and worse. In two-stroke engines, fuel is mixed with oil for lubrication, and about 30 percent of the mixture goes unburned and gets spewed out. That smell in the air after the gardener leaves is a mix of

MICHAEL A. MILLER carbon monoxide, nitrous oxides and various carcinogenic hydrocarbons. In late 2011, a study by Edmunds. com, the auto information site, found that the hydrocarbon emissions from half an hour of yard work with a two-stroke Echo leaf blower generated about the same carbon monoxide and non-methane hydrocarbon emissions as driving the 3,900 miles from Texas to Alaska in a 6,200-pound Ford Raptor. We know a lot more now than we did 10 and 20 years ago about allergies, asthma and the dangers of extended exposure to very fine particulate matter, which can penetrate deep into lungs, enter the bloodstream and harm the heart and other organs.

SLIRR Commuters Have Ways To Survive Strike Eye on

the Island

MIKE BARRY Recognizing a strike which impacted commuters effective Sunday, July 20, would inflict insufficient mayhem, the Long Island Rail Road’s (LIRR) union leaders want their prospective work stoppage pushed back to September. This comes as no surprise. But I was astonished to see the four U.S. House Members who represent Nassau County — Rep. Peter King (R-Seaford), Rep. Steve Israel (D-Huntington), Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-Mineola) and Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-St. Albans) — agreed with the LIRR’s union leaders while invoking an absurd cover story: the fate of Long Island’s summer tourism industry. “We encourage the MTA [Metropolitan Transportation Authority, the LIRR’s parent] to accept a proposal from the involved employee labor unions to extend the current ‘cooling

off’ period for an additional 60 days,” stated a June 19 letter to MTA chairman and CEO Thomas Prendergast, which was signed by the aforementioned U.S. House Members, and six others, from downstate New York. The correspondence is posted at www.smartunionlirr.com, and goes on to say “we are concerned about the

116058

effect that any potential work stoppage [in July 2014] could have on Long Island tourism, as the LIRR is a vital means of transportation to the East End and other destinations during the peak tourism season in the summer months.” True enough. Yet if you asked typical LIRR daily commuters whether they could more easily withstand a July LIRR strike, as compared to one in September, I daresay 90-plus percent of commuters would want a LIRR strike to occur in July. It is an easier time of year to take vacation, their children are on summer break, and the roadways are less clogged because neither school buses nor teachers are making the trips they take between September and June. To its credit, the LIRR’s Commuter Council, an entity created by the state legislature, began distributing pamphlets to LIRR riders at Penn Station in late June, offering guidance on how to prepare for a July strike. Meanwhile, the LIRR’s unions have the downstate Congressional delegation and two separate Obama administration-appointed panels backing them, even though the recommendations of those presidential nominees were non-binding, whereas the MTA’s labor negotiators are fending for themselves at the moment. The MTA has remained too silent throughout these proceedings, and could learn something from The Metropolitan Opera, which is currently in the midst of contract negotiations with 15 of the 16 unions representing employees that work at the Met. In a full-page New York Times advertisement (June 20), the Met’s executive committee explained how work rules forged in a different era are today financially unsustainable, and draining the institution’s resources. One example the Met

LIRR brass at a recent event promoting summer travel. If a strike comes, would it be better now, or in September? cited in its ad: the orchestra receives 16 weeks (yes, 16) of annual paid vacation. I’m sure comparable, unjustifiable expenditures are set into motion by the LIRR’s work rules. The MTA should take a full-page advertisement in a major daily newspaper and explain clearly some of the LIRR’s antiquated work rules to the public. LIRR commuters do, however, have weapons in 2014 that were not at their disposal in 1994, the last time the LIRR’s unions walked off the job. The first are the dramatic technological advances that have been made in the workplace. Given a laptop and an iPhone, most people can conduct business almost anywhere and, while they may miss face-to-face contact with colleagues and customers, a LIRR strike in 2014 is a major inconvenience as opposed to an event that can cripple the economy. The last 20 years have also brought widespread business continuity improvements made in the wake of 9-11, and Superstorm Sandy, times when New York City offices were either closed or inaccessible for extended periods of time. Should a LIRR strike occur, and continue for weeks, or even months, you’ll see city-based businesses rent space in either Nassau or Suffolk to accommodate their Long Island employees. Indeed, rather than shutting down the Island, a prolonged LIRR strike could boost to its commercial real estate market.

THE WEEKEND - JULY 2 - 8, 2014

Nassau’s Invisible Immigrant Community Most Long Islanders don’t think about Belmont Park beyond the annual Belmont Stakes. But look closely, and you will see that year in year out, the track is a very active and important economic force. Belmont Park has been part of the Long Island community since 1905. The grounds reside partially within Floral Park and Elmont, overlapping slightly into Queens. It typically holds nine or 10 races each day, Wednesday through Sunday. It’s a major part of the economy not just for those towns, but also for Long Island as a whole. Its economic contribution rests largely on the shoulders of an invisible group of men and women — nearly all of whom are immigrants. In racing parlance they are known as “backstretch” employees. These people perform essential jobs related to the care of the horses, including grooming, feeding and exercising. At Belmont Park, there are approximately 2,000 backstretch workers, most of whom live on the park grounds, according to Paul Ruchames, executive director for Backstretch Employee Service Team (BEST) of New York, a non-profit that provides health care and other services to the workers. “The horse racing world, which generates hundreds of millions of dollars, would not exist or it would be very tiny in New York without these workers,” said Ruchames. Despite their critical role in Long Island’s economy, there is little integration between the backstretch workers and the local community. Part of the reason is that the vast majority of workers live in dormitories on the grounds. Some have children who go to the local schools. Some take second jobs at the car wash or deli nearby. Most, according to Ruchames, “keep a low profile.” Life on the backstretch starts at 4 a.m. and ends around 11 a.m. Nearly all of the jobs these workers perform are physically demanding. “One is called a hot walker, who walks the horse before and after exercise,” said Ruchames. “Then there is an exercise rider.” There’s also the groom, who Ruchames said is the secret behind each horse. It is the groom who has the best gauge of the horse’s health and condition. “The groom bandages and takes care of the horse,” he said. “The groom knows the psychology of the horse. He knows his eating habits and sleeping habits.” All of these jobs require the men and women to be outside and exposed

MARYANN SLUTSKY to the elements for hours at a time. And there’s always the risk of being kicked or thrown by animals weighing well over a thousand pounds. “There’s a lot of shoveling,” said Ruchames, “and restraining the horse takes a lot of strength.” The immigrants performing these jobs accept these risks. Most come from rural villages in Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala — many from the same village or neighborhood. A good portion has had exposure to, if not hands-on experience, working with farm animals. For some, it’s a family tradition. Despite the hard labor, one thing is clear to Ruchames: The backstretch workers have a tremendous work ethic and truly love what they do. “They come to have relationships with the horses,” he said. Think of the bond people have with their pet, he said, “Now imagine that it’s your job, eight hours a day, working with your pet. Your pet runs a race — and wins!” Love or not, these are the proverbial jobs Americans simply won’t do. Ruchames said when trainers advertise openings, they get few, if any, responses from American-born workers. In the past, backstretch workers were African-Americans. Now, the role falls mainly to immigrants. Today’s backstretch workers are hired by the horse trainers, and brought to the U.S. on H2-B visas, like farmworkers. BEST was established in 1989 by people who had these working conditions in mind. “It was originally started just to handle drug and alcohol problems,” said Ruchames. “About seven years ago, it expanded the mission to include health care.” Largely funded by New York Racing Association (NYRA) and the New York Thoroughbred Horseman’s Association, BEST helps subsidize the workers’ health care costs, as well as provides alcohol and substance abuse counseling, psychological counseling and prescription medical assistance. It also established an on-site medical facility that offers primary care, chiropractic services, acupuncture and other treatments.

Dr. Fred Cogan, primary physician at the BEST Backstretch Clinic, said that he sees ailments related to the grueling outdoor work, and notices similarities with those in law enforcement, where long-term exposure to the elements is common. Cogan tries to ensure basic preventative care, such as routine blood tests and annual physicals, as well as immunizations. Planned Parenthood comes by once a month to offer their services. The benefit of the program goes beyond the backstretch. Over a five-year period, Ruchames said, “We saved the local community over $2 million in health care costs by what we are doing here. People who are going to our medical facility are not going to the emergency room.” Backstretch workers also receive childcare through the Belmont Child Care Association, popularly known as Anna House in honor of Anna Cordero, the late wife of Hall-of-Fame jockey Angel Cordero. Anna House is open from 5 a.m. to 1 p.m. to accommodate the workers’ schedule.

Top: Paul Ruchames, executive director for Backstretch Employee Service Team (BEST) of New York Bottom: A mural vividly portrays track — and backstretch — life. There’s also an on-site chaplaincy run by a separate non-profit called the Racetrack Chaplaincy of America N.Y. But non-profit organizations can do only so much. The passing of comprehensive immigration reform would be a game-changer for backstretch workers. For example, they would be able to reap the benefits of taxes they pay. The workers pay into Social Security, but rarely see the benefit because many ultimately move back to their country. We’re ready to wager that immigration reform would bring a better future for these workers — and for Long Island.

One concept that addresses many of Long Island’s economic and social needs is “transit-oriented development.” It should become a prominent focal point in this election season, as Long Islanders discuss our future ambitions. Transit-oriented development (TOD) refers to any development — housing, office, retail or any combination of them — located adjacent to transit stations (for us, the Long Island Rail Road). What’s especially impressive is the number of priority needs it addresses on Long Island. From an economic standpoint, we need to grow job opportunities, and TOD provides settings for office and retail jobs, as well as housing. We need to increase our population, in order to expand our economy and reduce the individual tax burden, and TOD enables higher-density growth without impacting less commercial areas. We need to provide more varieties of housing — smaller units and more rental options that appeal to young people as well as those looking to down-size from larger homes — and TOD can accommodate those varieties as well. From an environmental standpoint, we need to preserve our open space and the suburban lifestyle for which Long Island is renowned; we need to reduce our reliance on cars, and we need to be more creative in how we address our parking needs, so that we eliminate the growing blight of cars spreading out from transit stations in all directions. Transit-oriented development can accomplish all of that and more. For a look at innovative approaches to parking, for instance, see the Long Island Index’s ParkingPlus Design Challenge. From the standpoint of increasing innovation, we need to better link our centers of innovation — our universities, research centers and business incubators — and the people who work at them. We need to provide enhanced downtowns offering the mix of housing, entertainment, workspace and transit access that young people seek. We need to provide more options for reverse-commuting so that the talent and businesses we want to attract will move to Long Island rather than to Westchester County, southern Connecticut or northern

Opinion

NANCY RAUCH DOUZINAS New Jersey — nearby locations where reverse-commuting is so much easier and economic growth is far surpassing Long Island’s. Again, transit-oriented development can support all of that. The good news for Long Island is that crucial resources needed to expand TOD are already in place. First, we have the Long Island Rail Road and its 124 stations. Local communities will have to decide for themselves whether they want transit-oriented development and on what terms, but many larger communities do — for any number of the reasons cited above. Second, we have the space. There are more than 4,000 acres of surface parking lots in and around Long Island’s downtowns, and that space can be far more creatively imagined and effectively used. Think what a difference it would make if that space was contributing to Long Island’s economy in innovative ways while offering even more parking. That’s the reality of what’s possible, as the ParkingPlus Design Challenge reveals. Third, we have the access that transit provides to all parts of Greater New York City, the business capital of the world, and we need to put that access to greater use for Long Island. Election season is upon us and will be escalating as we approach November. Long Islanders should ask candidates for office what they will do to enhance transit-oriented development. It’s time for those candidates to hear that we are tired of watching the jobs that we need go to those other nearby locations. We need transit-oriented development and the economic growth that goes with it. It’s time for Long Island to get more TOD. Nancy Rauch Douzinas is president of the Garden City-based Rauch Foundation.

I have a nine year-old cat that is mostly indoors. I only let him out in my backyard when I’m outside with him. I feed him dry food and every evening I give him a half of a can of cat food as a treat. He loves it! I also give him some cat treats from the pouches when he asks for them. Over the past few months I’ve noticed that he is eating less dry food and is holding his head to the side when he eats. His breath has not changed. It’s always pretty bad. I’m afraid it’s his teeth and I’m scared to put him under anesthesia. What can I do? Any help would be appreciated. — Carla

Dear Doctor DiGrazia,

Dental disease is common in cats, especially for those who eat canned food. Tartar buildup on teeth leads to gingivitis, cavities and even infected roots. The bacteria that fester in these diseased teeth can spread to other body organs through the blood stream. This can result in heart, liver, or kidney disease. It is always best to keep the mouth as healthy as possible not only to avoid spread of disease, but for the comfort of the animal. When your cat chews and holds his head to the side, he’s avoiding using one side of his mouth due to pain. This is usually an indication of loose or rotten teeth. When dental disease is this advanced, it is best to have them professionally cleaned by a veterinarian. Many safety procedures are performed to ensure the animal makes it through anesthesia successfully. You can discuss with your veterinarian what their protocol is for dentals and do what you feel is best for your cat. After the teeth are clean, there are many options for keeping them healthy afterwards such as brushing or a mouthwash. Good Luck. — Mara DiGrazia, D.V.M.

| MAA TRAVEL SOCCER NEWS Four MAA Teams Win Division Titles

Allison Lamonica near the left corner. Lamonica lofted a cross that fell behind the Blast goalkeeper along the six-yard line. Conroy carefully trapped the ball before walking the ball into the back of the North Babylon net for the dramatic winner. The second half began with Mineola trailing 2-1. Brianna O’Brien’s chip sent Christen Patalano in on goal at the 10-minute mark. Patalano’s smash into the corner of the goal drew Mineola even and the momentum from that goal carried them for the rest of the game. Katie Russelman nearly gave Mineola the lead off a terrific individual effort that led to a breakaway. The resulting shot was saved by the Blast’s keeper.

MAA Travel Soccer teams competing in both the Long Island Junior Soccer League and the New York Club Soccer League (NYCSL) ended their spring campaigns. MAA teams celebrated four league titles. The GU15 Mini-Mustangs used a dramatic last-minute goal to overtake North Babylon for first place; the BU11 Mineola United earned a crucial 3 points in their league final to finish as co-champions; the BU10 Mineola FC capped their terrific season, beating Freeport to finish undefeated at the top of their division; and the BU9 Mavericks finished atop their group in the NYCSL.

Mini-Mustangs Finish Strong

Mineola United Capture Crown The BU11 Mineola United squad capped a stellar Spring campaign with a 9-3 victory over the Garden City Heat on June 14 to secure a tie for first place in Division N-4 with an 8-11 record. The United boys, eager to right the ship after the lone loss of the season (a 3-2 loss to Franklin Square) came out full bore to start the game. Mineola was up 5-1 at halftime. After Mineola scored again, the Heat squad answered back with two long-range goals to put the game within reach at 6-3. Mineola added three more to put the game away. Jack Keyes had his first hat trick, while Sammy Anjo had a pair of goals and Marco Cangemi scored a header off an Anjo corner pass. Ruben Teixeira demonstrated his formidable technical skill throughout the match and also joined the scoring barrage with a clinical finish. Manav Bansal scored with a strike from his left back position and the strong left foot of Eric Pavlou added one more. Nicky Guglielmo was his usual productive self at both holding and attacking mid positions. The defense was solid and started many build-ups throughout the day led by William Winski, Michael Vittuci and Bansal. David Cabrera played great as the United keeper. Mineola’s Michael Lopes demonstrated his versatility at left midfield and James Medved brought his typical high energy game and was a valuable contributor to his team’s success.

The Mineola United Spirit

Mineola FC Finish Undefeated The BU10 Mineola FC squad capped their terrific season with a tough 2-1 victory over Freeport Milan on June 14. Mineola finished the season at 8-0-1 and alone atop their division, for their first title. Liam Going gave his Mineola team the lead with a free kick drive from 25 yards. After the Freeport team found the equalizer, Mineola began to press hard for the win. After a long-range shot from Luke Sommese was saved by the Freeport keeper, Mattheus Silva jumped on the rebound and scored from a close angle to provide his team with the lead. Lightning Caps Solid Season The BU16 Mineola Lightning team finished their season with a victory at their long-time rivals, the Oceanside Bulls on June 15, 5-2. The Lightning struck first with a header by Kevin Vecchione set up by Joe Cucinella’s cross. Vecchione’s perfectly placed low shot in the corner on a penalty kick of the net provided no chance for the Bulls goalie. Vecchione’s corner kick five minutes later found the head of teammate Julian Riezgo for a 3-0 Mineola lead. Fullback Eric Pereira came within inches of breaking his scoreless streak when the Bulls goalie made a diving one-handed save to turn away

his blistering shot off of a rebound. Oceanside responded with a goal on a rebound that made the score 3-1 at half time. In the second half, a Cucinella cross led to Vecchione’s third goal of the game. Oceanside responded with a goal that made the score 4-2. Mineola held off the Bulls attack and sealed the victory with Riezgo’s second header of the match with six minutes to go on a free kick from Cucinella. He assisted on four scores. Midfielders Bobby Schoen, Andi Tuti, Tony Macchietto and Ronal Laurice all had strong games helping Mineola control play for most of the match. The Lightning finished the spring season with a record of 5-4 in league play and 2-1 in the Long Island Cup Tournament. The team scored 28 goals this season.

Conroy Goal Wins Title For Mineola Alana Conroy’s goal with 30 seconds remaining propelled the GU15 Mineola Mini-Mustangs to division champions, capping a terrific 3-2 victory over North Babylon on June 15. The Mini-Mustangs entered their contest against the North Babylon Blast trailing their rival by two points for the division title. With the game knotted at two, Annie Cripps slid a short pass to

The GU15 Mineola Mini-Mustangs, having already clinched first place, used a potent first-half offensive surge to defeat the Stony Brook Power 5-0 on June 21. Allison Lamonica connected three times for Mineola, including once off a cross from right-back Valerie Cobos and another off a goal mouth cross from Brianna O’Brien. Michelle Viola also contributed an assist from her left-back position, feeding O’Brien for one of her two tallies. Goalkeeper Fran Chavez made a sensational diving save to preserve the shutout. Mineola finished their league season at 7-1-1 (12-3-1 in all competitions).

Mineola Wins Final Game of Season Toni Ondris’ first half score from in close proved to be all that the GU13 Mineola Renaissance would need in their victory over Port Washington on June 22. Mineola earned their second win thanks in part to the solid efforts of their defensive corps – outside backs Hannah O’Neil and Megan Russelman; and center backs Jenna Cox and Erin Buckley. Stephanie Pereira also had a key defensive play for Mineola, as she skillfully headed away from danger what would have been a goal late in the game. Kaitlyn Wetzel helped Mineola find the all-important second goal, crossing the ball beautifully after a long run and finding Melissa Pereira at the far post for a one-timer that sealed the victory. — From the MAA
