Suozzi Calls For Hochul’s Use Of State Aircraft To Be Investigated

BY NATALIA VENTURA

nventura@antonmediagroup.com

O

n Jan. 13, Democratic governor candidate Congressman Tom Suozzi, held a virtual conference calling for the NYS Attorney General to investigate Governor Hochul’s misuse of taxpayer-funded state aircraft, which is in violation of State Ethics Law. “Actions speak louder than words.

The Governor has released her public schedule, only for her first 45 days in office. It turns out in the first 45 days, Governor Hochul used the taxpayer-funded state aircraft 45 times,” stated Suozzi.

Within those 45 days Hochul held 64 private events, while the number of COVID-19 cases increased.

Suozzi presented a 30-second video, a clip of Governor Hochul speaking when she first took office claiming to “focus on open, ethical governing that New Yorkers will trust.”

Roslyn Landmark Society Receives A Cemetery Restoration Grant

oslyn Landmark Society has been awarded a $10,000 grant from the Robert D. L. Gardiner Foundation to help restore the historic Townsend Cemetery in East Hills. The restoration is expected to begin in the spring.

Dating back to 1790, the cemetery was active for almost 104 years.

Throughout this period, it was known as the Willis Farm Cemetery, Greenvale Cemetery and now the Townsend Cemetery. The earliest internment was Timothy H. Townsend (Nov. 24, 1790) and the last burial was Ethalinda Jackson (Nov. 12, 1894.) A total of 33 internments were documented in the burying ground. In a 1912 survey by Josephine Frost, a total of 29 headstone inscriptions were compiled. Nine headstones and five footstones are currently visible on the ground.

Burying Ground Preservation Group, Inc. in collaboration with Steward Preservation Services have prepared a comprehensive plan for the restoration. The proposed multi-phased project plans to address the need to survey and record the cemetery, and to provide recommendations for its conservation treatment and restoration.

The restoration work will be a joint project with the Town of North Hempstead who is responsible for the management of the property.

“We’re committed to collaborating with local non-profit community groups such as Roslyn Landmark Society to raise funds and care for our town cemeteries and landmarks. Such partnerships provide the feedback and enhance the cooperation we need to get things done and do them right” Town of North Hempstead Historian Ross Lumpkin said.

Bill Stone, a descendant of the eight members of the Jackson family buried in the Townsend Cemetery, said of the grant, “Our family was delighted to receive news of the generous grant from the Gardiner Foundation for restoration of the Townsend Cemetery. We want to extend our gratitude and thanks to those who have participated in acquiring the grant and facilitating the work including former North Hempstead Town Supervisor Judi Bosworth; Councilman Peter Zuckerman, Historian Ross Lumpkin, the Town of North Hempstead Department of Highways, Howard Kroplick and the Roslyn Landmark Society. It is comforting to know that the final resting place of our ancestors is in good and caring hands.”

Hall in 2004 and launching Atul’s Skincare, a company he started in March 2020 as the pandemic was starting to snowball. Bhatara’s challenges and triumphs led to his inclusion in Ignite the Hunger in You, an international compilation of inspirational stories compiled by motivational speaker Les Brown and empowerment publisher JB Owen. Moreover, Bhatara is in the midst of shooting The Spark Within, a documentary on his story he hopes to release in mid- to late 2022. For Bhatara, this project less represents his life story and is more about sparking hope for people in during this turbulent era.

“Because of these times, life stopped,” he explained. “When life stops, you look around. There was a bit of contemplation going on for my part about everything that I’d been through and all the stuff I didn’t understand when I was going through it. All the pain, trials and tribulations—there was a lot

n the 1979 comedy film Monty Python’s Life of Brian, the main character finds himself being serenaded during a crucifixion scene by his fellow sufferers with the song “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life.” Beyond being a seminal scene in this iconic film, it’s part of the philosophy entrepreneur/activist Atul Bhatara has embraced while refusing to succumb to numerous health obstacles. Bhatara was born four months premature and barely three pounds. Doctors were initially unsure if he was going to be able to talk, see or walk. The Queens native’s cerebral palsy diagnosis wouldn’t come until 14 months had passed. Four decades-plus later, the Hicksville resident beat the odds by enduring 14 operations, graduating from St. John’s University, helping his family open the World’s Fair Marina Restaurant and Banquet

of that. But at the end of the day, I feel like I’ve lived a completely blessed life and been very fortunate within the circumstances. I actually think I’ve learned a lot with these circumstances. The disability has taught me compassion and passion.

The truth is, it’s not what happens to you. It’s what you do with it. I think coming out of this pandemic, people in their own selves have to get back to the basics. A spiritual center, believe in oneself, belief in a higher power—these things are going to be paramount because otherwise you have chaos.”

While Bhatara was born in Woodside, his parents sent him to New Delhi to live with family from the age of four to seven. Upon returning to the United States, he had to relearn English and was initially placed in special education classes. In this pre-Americans With Disabilities Act era, Bhatara’s outspoken nature and intelligence was recognized by a teacher who

of positivity in forthcoming documentary advocated he be mainstreamed.

Not only did Bhatara thrive, but he skipped a grade. This early validation and the positivity of his Hindu faith inspired him to continue striving even when dreams like attending St. John’s University and becoming a businessman were questioned. Bhatara’s knack for going with a positive pivot to get past obstacles served him well when COVID-19 shut his family’s banquet hall down. A chance conversation with a cousin in finance who shared contact information about a client’s private label cosmetics laboratory immediately reminded Bhatara of Ayurveda, an alternative medicine system whose principles he learned from his grandmother as a child while living in India. Atul Skincare became the end result and with it, a brand that is, “a platform for individuals of all shapes, colors, sizes and skin tones.” With the documentary nearing completion, Bhatara is looking to move in a

direction that will allow him to continue spreading this positive message, either through an eventual podcast or getting Brown to come out to Long Island, where the duo can address people of all ages.

“If I could have one thing come true, I’d like to get involved with the inclusion and diversity division of companies and help change the conversation of minority and disabled-owned business,” he said. “That should be a category of inclusion [companies] should look at. It’s so much bigger than race, color, gender and the rest of it. In my opinion, that’s a part of society, when it comes to economics, where people look to get them a program rather than get them an opportunity. At least, we should get a seat at the table. Look at what Magic Johnson did for the inner city areas in bringing companies like Starbucks to those communities.

Ella’s Boutique & AquaBrasil

A

fter a series of pandemic-related delays in 2020, Bruna Tembelis was able to open AquaBrasil Boutique in Glen Head, a brick-and-mortar store with the intent of selling her own line of artisan jewelry, as well as establishing a one-stop-shop featuring women and children’s clothing as well as gifts.

“From the beginning, everything happened really quickly,” Tembelis said. “It was my dream to have a physical store but had no time to make any changes.”

In 2021, Tembelis decided to go forward making changes with the alternative store name she conceptualized in the first place, Ella’s Boutique -- as a tribute to her two daughters, Maryella and Ariella. She was hesitant to change the name initially during the height of the pandemic, but then decided to move forward.

“When I felt I was more comfortable in the community, I decided to make the change,” Tembelis explained.

The new shop, Ella’s Boutique, carries numerous American-made products, including goods handcrafted

Online, Tembelis advertises the AquaBrasil brand separately from the brick-and-mortar Ella’s Boutique. She also still hosts pop-up shops at craft fairs and artisan markets locally.

With regard to the rebrand, Tembelis’ clientele has responded positively.

“I’m very grateful!” she said.

“Clients have been loyal since day one. People walk in and say, ‘oh my goodness, you’re still here!’ It’s a good thing that they’re afraid that

Tembelis has truly embraced the community as her family, as her blood family members live in Brazil as well as in Spain. She has even brought her older daughter, Maryella, into the business, as she works at Ella’s Boutique on Sundays.

“We’ve been in Glen Cove for five years,” Tembelis said. “It’s where I felt at home. My favorite part of the community is that everyone tries to help each other out. My clients became family and friends. We talk about our families. I love that

Massapequa Cancer Survivor Spearheads Blood Donation Drive T

o help hospitals meet the pressing need for blood, Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino, Councilwoman Laura Maier and cancer survivor Aliyah Petrone of Massapequa partnered to host a Blood Donation Drive. Thirty pints of blood were donated at this collection drive, potentially saving 90 lives since a single pint of blood can save up to three lives.

“The Town of Oyster Bay is home to many extraordinary residents and community role models, including Aliyah Petrone of Massapequa,” Saladino said. “Aliyah was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia at 18 years old and was treated successfully at Cohen Children’s Medical Center.

Now, as a cancer survivor, she advocates for children with cancer and has coordinated numerous successful blood drives in our town, thus directly saving lives.” The town supervisor added, “I’m incredibly proud of our partnership with Aliyah, especially as blood donations are needed now

more than ever to help local hospitals meet growing demand and continue life-saving operations.”

“Blood donations are extremely important to help secure necessary blood transfusions for patients,” Maier said. “During this pandemic, blood supplies have dwindled and are critically low, so this blood drive, one of the largest in our local area, was critical for our local hospitals. I thank Aliyah for her efforts in ensuring its success and for her many positive contributions to our community.”

To donate blood today, visit https:// donate.nybc.org/donor/schedules/zip for more information and to make an appointment.

Garden City Director Of Transportation Retires After 15 Years

arden City Public Schools extends a fond farewell to the District’s Director of Transportation, Dave Murphy. He started working for the district in May of 2006, and over the past 15 years, he has left an imprint on the Garden City community.

In his role, Murphy supervised the entire transportation department, made up of drivers, mechanics and attendants.

He was also a driver himself on many occasions, noting connecting with children over the years and watching them grow was his favorite part of the job.

His role was met with some chal-

lenges including driver shortages and the pandemic, but Murphy led the department to success, ultimately meeting the goal of getting children safely to and from school.

“The people around here are very supportive and so is the district,” Murphy said. “I’m going to miss it, I really am. I put what I feel is everything I had – my experience, my knowledge, my certifications—I’ve used every bit of it in this position. The community itself is an extremely nice community.

The people appreciate the service that we provide to them.”

The district wishes Murphy well

and thanks him for his many years of service.

“We would like to thank Dave Murphy for what he has been able to build in the transportation department over the past 15 and a half years.

He has created a family within the department and nice experiences for our children. We wish him the best,” Superintendent of Schools Dr. Kusum Sinha said.

Linda Greene, the Assistant Director of Transportation, will be assuming Murphy’s responsibilities.

Police Give Tips On How To Secure Your Car During the past week, there were two reports of vehicles stolen from Garden City driveways. In both cases, the vehicles were left unlocked, and the key fobs left inside. This appears to be an ongoing trend throughout Nassau County and the metropolitan area.

In many of these cases, the vehicles were recovered in Newark, NJ. According to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, auto theft is up 11 percent.

The Garden City Police Department offers the following tips to help reduce vehicle theft: • Always keep your vehicle locked

and windows closed, even in your driveway or garage, as well as when you are stopped somewhere even for a brief period of time.

• Take your car key or fob with you when you leave your vehicle.

• With the increase in keyless ignitions, vehicles are easily entered when key fobs are left inside. All thieves have to do to gain entry, is pull the door handle, enter, press the start button and drive off. Thieves are aware side mirrors on some newer model vehicles do not retract when a key fob is left inside the vehicle.

• Do not leave or hide a key, valet key, or smart key anywhere in the vehicle.

• Do not leave your vehicle running while unattended.

• Park in well-lit areas and keep your driveway well-lit as well.

Auto-thefts often occur in the dark, particularly in residential areas • Always leave your car alarm activated, if equipped, when the vehicle is not in use.

• Consider installing a GPS system or car tracking service; many car tracking systems have shut off capa-

bilities.

• Do not leave garage door opener or valuables in your vehicle.

The Garden City Police Department requests residents call 911 at once if they observe suspicious activity or hear car alarm activations. In addition, the department encourages all residents and businesses to contact the Detective Division at 516-4654108 if they have information or video surveillance footage, which may assist in criminal investigations.

affecting multiple homes on the block.

On Nov. 27, the department was notified for an auto accident with overturn at the intersection of Cathedral Avenue & Fourth Street. As units arrived on scene, they were met with a two car accident with one car overturned on its side. Two people were transported to local hospitals with injuries.

I look forward to working together with my colleagues, students, parents and the community to build on our district’s reputation of excellence. I bring to this role the firm and lifelong conviction that education is the most dynamic and impactful work there is. Thank you again for

this opportunity to build on our success and move our district into a future filled with limitless opportunities for student development and achievement.”

Town To Hold Remote Board Of Zoning Appeals Hearings North Hempstead Town Supervisor Jennifer DeSena and the town board recently announced that the town’s Board of Zoning Appeals will begin holding its hearings remotely via video conference due to the Omicron variant and the spike in COVID-19 cases in New York and Nassau. The virtual meetings are being held to protect public health and reduce the spread of COVID-19. As such, residents are reminded that the town board room will not be open to the public, and there will be no in-person access to the meeting.

Supervisor DeSena noted, “The protection of public health and safety are paramount and as infection rates go up at a staggering pace during this winter surge due to the omicron variant, the Town is transitioning these

Board of Zoning Appeals meetings to be remotely held through Zoom.”

The meeting originally scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 5 is being adjourned to Wednesday, Jan. 26 and will be held remotely via Zoom video conference. The Wednesday, Jan. 19 meeting will also be held virtually.

New York State Governor Kathy Hochul signed legislation in the beginning of September 2021 to permit virtual public meetings to reduce the spread of the Delta variant.

Departments Respond To Building Fire The Public Information Office reports the details of a building fire that occurred on Friday, Jan. 14 at 6 p.m. in Mineola.

According to police, Third Precinct officers responded to a call for a building fire located at 178 2nd St. All occupants evacuated the building and no injuries were reported. The Mineola Fire Department responded to ex-

tinguish the flames and had assistance from 15 surrounding departments. Businesses Metro PCS and The Discount Store were lost in the fire.

The Red Cross also responded to assist with displaced residents. Arson/ Bomb Squad Detectives and Fire Marshals were also at the scene, and the investigation is ongoing.

That area is no stranger

to devastation due to fires.

Back in 2020, a five-alarm fire occurred between First and Second streets. At the time, the Mineola Fire Department was assisted by 12 other local departments, which consisted of approximately 200 firefighters. Due to the severe damage of the buildings, they had to be demolished.

Village To Consider Parking Permits In Response To UBS Patrons

he Village of Floral Park is considering issuing resident parking permits to curb any future issues that may arise from people who attend events at UBS Arena in nearby Elmont.

Since the opening of the UBS Arena in November, residents in Elmont complained to Town of Hempstead officials that their quality of life is diminishing due to the masses of people going to the arena who are parking in front of their houses for hours blocking their driveways. Residents also said that drunken antics are also becoming a problem. After an emergency meeting last month, the Town of Hempstead board voted unanimously to enact new parking regulations that would limit non-residents from parking on roads off Hempstead Turnpike where people live.

The Village of Floral Park is looking to take a page from the town’s book.

“The Village of Floral Park continues to be in close contact with the Empire State Development Corp., arena security, Senator Anna Kaplan and Assemblywoman Michaelle Solages to manage the logistics of the impact that the recently opened UBS

“The closure of the Mayfair gates, we have not seen a parking problem that has been witnessed in Elmont,” Fitzgerald added. “Once the full time train station for Elmont in Bellerose Terrace opens, it is conceivable that arena patrons will park in Floral Park, take the train two stops and go to the event. We need to come up with streets that we want to see allow have parking permits for residents.”

It would be cost effective and less time consuming for people to park on the streets of Floral Park to go to the arena by catching a train, according to The Mayfair Avenue gate will remain closed to help preserve the quality of Fitzgerald.

Pioneer Aviators: First Flights And Adventures The pioneers of Long Island aviation were entrepreneurs and daredevils flying from the early airfields that dotted the island including Hempstead Plains, Brighton Beach, Morris Park Racetrack, Belmont Park and the Mineola Flying Field.

Pioneers armed with the guts to risk their lives flying fragile wooden skeletons held together by wire covered in fabric. These trailblazers’ broke bones but not their spirit. Their adventures built the ramp that catapulted Long Island into legendary status as the Cradle of Aviation.

Early aircraft that didn’t maintain flight didn’t fail.

They exposed weaknesses that were conquered. Take the earliest form of flight: balloons. In 1873, W.H Donaldson attempted a transatlantic flight taking off from Brooklyn.

Grounded by a ferocious storm over Connecticut after traveling only 60 miles, Donaldson brought powered flight to Long Island. Gliders soon entered the picture when a Lilenthal-type German glider flew from the North Shore Bluffs.

In 1896, from a houseboat on the Potomac River, The Langley Aerodome No.5 powered by single steam / gasoline engine made the first successful flight of any unpiloted, powered heavierthan-air flying machine. Two of the engineers on the project

were Charles Manly and Augustus Herring, both Freeport residents.

On Dec 17, 1903, at Kill Devil Hill near Kitty Hawk, the Wright Brothers piloted the first sustained, controlled powered flight. Previously, planes flew only straight with no maneuvering. The flight only lasted 12 seconds but changed aviation forever.

In October of 1909, Wilbur

Wright made the most daring flight to date on Long Island, flying his biplane round trip from Garden City to Manhattan.

In 1908, legendary engineer Glenn Curtiss developed an aircraft called The Red Wing.

Piloted by Thomas Scott Baldwin, it flew over Kenuka Lake in Hammondsport, NY. The event was tagged “the first public flight” by an airplane in the United States; a claim immediately disputed by the Wright Brothers.

Curtiss moved his operations to the natural prairie of Hempstead Plains on Long Island. The plains proved optimum for years to come with the benefits of long flat areas, an absence of trees or tall obstacles. Teaming up with Augustus Herring in July 1909, the 4 cylinder biplane No. 1 Golden Flyer made Long Island’s first successful recorded flight. In 1910, he flew from Albany to New York City in less than three hours, bringing in the age of domestic aviation.

In December 1909, the first American-designed and built monoplane was piloted by Dr. Henry Walden. By the end of 1909, the Aeronautic Society erected their first hangar on their airfield on Washington Avenue in Garden City. The hangar housed seven aircraft along with tents exhibiting their “flying machines.” Long Islanders packed the airfield thirsting to get their first views of human flight.

In 1910, the main stage belonged to The International Aviation meet held at Belmont Park running from October 22-31. The meet attracted the greatest aviators from all over the world exhibiting their flying machines. Crowds came to check out famous aviators compete in daily altitude contests, distance and speed runs along with cross-country races.

One of the most outstanding accomplishments was the flight of the Vin Fiz. William Randolph Hearst offered a challenge for any pilot to fly the first transcontinental

flight in 30 days with a prize of $50,000. Many of the elite aviators including Wright and Glenn Curtiss gave it some thought but said the technology was not yet ready for that type of flight. Enter Cal Rodgers.

Rodgers, a big, burly, cigar-chomping man made his name winning airshow contests. On Sept. 17, 1911, he set off from Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn. The flimsy plane clocked in at 50 mph with a 35 horsepower engine. Containing no cockpit, Rodgers sat in a single seat positioned on the lower wing. In addition, there was no instruments or gauges. Airports didn’t exist, so Roberts navigated by following railroad tracks across the states. The flight had numerous crashes, but he did have a train that followed him cross-country with a supply of parts. After making more than 70 stops and taking 49 days, Cal Rodgers landed at the designated airfield in Pasadena, CA. But he continued to Long Beach, where he pushed the plane onto the beach to make it a legitimate “coast to coast” trip. Long Island’s most famous flight took place 13 years later.

Charles Lindbergh enlisted in the Army in 1924, training as an Air Service Reserve pilot. After the war, Lindbergh worked as an airmail pilot and later a became a barnstormer, performing at fairs and other events. On May 20, 1927 in the heart of the “Golden Age of Aviation” Lindbergh and his monoplane, the Spirit of St. Louis took off from Roosevelt Field. He crossed the Atlantic landing at Le Bourguet Field near Paris. Lindbergh flew an amazing 3,600 miles taking 33.5 hours to become the first aviator to complete a solo transatlantic flight.

Catholic Schools Week 2022: Faith. Excellence. Service

S

ince 1974, National Catholic Schools Week is the annual celebration of Catholic education in the United States. It starts the last Sunday in January and runs all week, which in 2022 is Jan. 30 through Feb. 5.

The theme for National Catholic Schools Week 2022 is “Catholic Schools: Faith. Excellence. Service.” Schools typically observe the annual celebration week with Masses, open houses and other activities for students, families, parishioners and community members.

Through these events, schools focus on the value Catholic education provides to young people and its contributions to the church, the communities and the nation.

In the Diocese of Rockville Centre, Catholic schools are planning exciting weeks to celebrate the gift of Catholic schools. Consider visiting and supporting your local Catholic school.

Morning Star Initiative Receives Gift To Revitalize Catholic Elementary Schools Michael Pascucci and his family have donated $1 million to Tomorrow’s Hope Foundation in support of the Long Island Catholic School revitalization effort known as the Morning Star Initiative (MSI), led by the Diocese of Rockville Centre’s Department of Education, the Marianist Brothers and Tomorrow’s Hope.

Launched in January 2020, MSI is a forward-looking plan to strengthen Long Island Catholic elementary schools by restoring a robustly Catholic culture, academic excellence and fiscally sustainable schools. Pascucci’s contribution will advance MSI’s mission by supporting long-term investments in tuition assistance, technology, academics, recruitment and enrollment and school leaders and teachers.

“We launched Morning Star with the aim of achieving a ‘new dawn’ for Catholic education on Long Island,” said Brother Tom Cleary, chief revitalization officer, Morning Star Initiative and president of Chaminade High School (Mineola). “Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of Michael Pascucci and other donors who have answered the call to support this effort, I am proud to say that this vision is now becoming a reality.”

Since MSI launched, the Catholic elementary schools have already seen strong results. Math and reading scores, for example, improved significantly during the 2020-2021 school year despite the challenge of distance learning.

Born on Long Island, Pascucci attended St. Mary’s Elementary School in Manhasset. He later became the first member of his family to attend college when he enrolled at Bucknell University and went to earn an MBA from New York University’s School of Business. Soon after, he began his career as an entrepreneur and launched several successful business ventures, including Oxford Resources Corp., one of the nation’s largest automobile leasing and finance companies; WLNY television station; the private investment company, Duck Pond Associates; and the Sebonack Golf Club in Southampton, which he still owns today.

“The education I received in Catholic grade school gave me the foundation I needed to attend college and succeed in my career,” said Pascucci. “I strongly believe in supporting this effort for our Catholic schools so they can continue offering those same life-changing opportunities to future generations of children Michael Pascucci growing up on Long Island.”

he global pandemic identified the strengths and weaknesses of schools and school systems in a way that had been previously unimaginable. Only a handful of schools were prepared to immediately move to remote learning, and fewer still were able to execute a great remote program and then return their full complement of students back into safe classrooms in the fall.

All of Long Island’s Catholic elementary schools were among this exclusive group.

Now, almost a year from the onset of the pandemic, Catholic schools are celebrating Catholic Schools Week, the part of the school year where most families who were considering the advantage of a Catholic education get to visit and select which school is right for their children.

One-on-one virtual visits with the principal Your needs are unique, and some of the advantages of Catholic school are individualized attention and differentiated instruction to meet each child’s needs. You can schedule a one-onone meeting with the principal of the school you select and be confident that your child(ren) will thrive in the environment.

A CATHOLIC SCHOOLS WEEK LIKE NONE BEFORE Because Long Island’s Catholic schools make the safety of their current students and families the first priority, most schools have moved away from the large group celebration of Catholic education that has defined previous open houses.

So how does a family looking for something better find a school this year?

This year Long Island’s Catholic elementary schools are supporting the interests of aspiring families through a combination of virtual and in-person visiting opportunities. www.licatholicelementaryschools.org website A visit to the central website for Long Island’s Catholic elementary schools provides general insight into the advantages of a Catholic education, identifies some of the key differences, and identifies how the schools are organized to serve students from nursery school through eighth grade. There are maps and descriptions showing the locations and summary information on each school, and information on how to register and the financial aid available to support you. You’ll find links to each school’s website and directions to locate each school.

School websites Catholic elementary schools have websites that offer exceptional insights into each school community. On the school website, you’ll read about the mission and vision of the school, ‘meet’ the principal through letters and regular

communications with parents, learn about how the school is organized to address the needs of early childhood, elementary and middle school students and learn about the various sports, clubs and extracurricular activities available.

Class pages describe the educational focus at various levels and communicate the assignments and day-to-day activities. The school website will also provide insight into how parents can participate and support their child’s education. Look for the ‘I’m New’ tab on the school’s website.

Virtual video tours Many schools have worked to facilitate your needs during the pandemic by putting together virtual video tours to give you a look inside their facilities, to allow you to meet some of their key staff members, and to give you a sense of the esprit-de-corps of their community.

Live virtual tours During Catholic Schools Week, many schools will stage live online events to give you a chance to both see the facility and learn the academic, social and spiritual advantages the school offers. These sessions, lasting approximately 45 minutes will allow you to meet the principal, key staff members, and often parents from each community. The school will post the schedule of these events and allow you to select the time that

Individual family or small group tours Some schools will offer visiting times when small group tours will be accommodated. These require an appointment. Tours will take place during scheduled windows when the school and the classrooms will be open, and when teachers and staff will be available to answer your questions. Often these are afternoons or weekends when the school is scheduled be deep cleaned prior to the students’ return. We place the continued safety and health of our current students and families above all else.

While the way prospective families will review and interact with the schools has changed, the Catholic school difference of addressing the ‘whole child’, academically, socially and spiritually remains. Visit the school’s web site to schedule to visit virtually or in-person to see why a Catholic elementary education will help your student succeed in high school, in college, and in life. A Catholic education is an advantage that lasts a lifetime. Plan to learn more about the advantages of a Catholic elementary education this Catholic Schools Week.

Hope That Grows With Tomorrow’s Hope Executive Director, Ismini Scouras

I

was a bit surprised by a statistic I read in The New York Times recently about how much Americans have saved since the start of the pandemic. While I was aware of the “COVID Savings Surge,” the $2.3 trillion more in savings that Americans have accumulated in the 19 months than would have been expected before the pandemic is astounding to me. According to JPMorgan Chase Institute, the median household’s checking account balance was 50 percent higher in July of this year than in 2019.

I was also recently struck by a reading according to the Gospel of Mark at Mass one Sunday last month about the “Widow’s Mite” and our Lord’s teaching about giving. If you may remember, Jesus was at the temple with his disciples watching people give large sums of money into the treasury. When a poor widow came along and put in two small copper coins, He taught the disciples that her gift held more value because her motivation to give came from the heart. It is here where we learn how the Son of God links the giving of money to what inspires us and how every gift you make to

Ismini Scouras a cause that means something to you has great significance no matter how much it is. Every gift counts!

And all donations to Tomorrow’s Hope have a direct impact on our mission to ensure the excellence

and continuance of our Long Island Catholic elementary schools with program and scholarship funding.

This academic year, Tomorrow’s Hope disbursed $2.45 million in tuition assistance, yet we received

requests for scholarship aid totaling more than $6 million. Yes, $6 million. These families are eager to provide their children with an education enriched with the traditions and teachings of the Roman Catholic Church. Yet even with their personal sacrifices, tuition expenses coupled with rising inflation and other pandemic-induced losses have made it prohibitive for many families to provide their children with a Catholic school education. Thanks to our benefactors, Tomorrow’s Hope has given aid to nearly 1,200 students, helping families bridge the gap of what they can afford to pay for their children to attend Catholic school. But the need is still great…

If you are one of the millions of Americans who have accrued additional savings in your coffers this year, please consider making a year-end gift to Tomorrow’s Hope so that we can continue to provide the gift of a Catholic education to as many children as possible. As our Lord teaches us, every contribution, however big or small, powers and sustains our mission. Again, every gift counts.

T

ens of millions of children in the world are experiencing an “educational catastrophe”. They are excluded from the scholastic community. The Global Compact on Education proposed by the Pope seeks to contribute to heal this profound wound. About 30 people are working toward this behind the scenes, following, directing, supervising and promoting scholastic and academic formation in Catholic institutions throughout the world. Cardinal Giuseppe Versaldi tells us about the mission of the Congregation

Cardinal Versaldi at his desk at the Congregation for Catholic Education. Vatican

for Catholic Education.

Education is one of the central themes of Pope Francis’ pontificate.

In October 2020, he relaunched the proposal of a Global Compact directed to all the educational entities in society responsible for the future of the younger generations. In what way has the Dicastery been involved in sustaining and implementing the campaign the Pope inspired?

From the beginning of his pontificate, following his previous pastoral style, Pope Francis has insisted on the necessity of investing everyone’s talents, above all those of the younger generations, to foster a new universal solidarity and a more welcoming society. With the launch of the Global Compact on Education, he renewed the invitation to forge an alliance toward a global convergence of education that knows how to unite every people, with all their components, so as to discover solutions to the problems created due to the ongoing epochal transformation, to initiate processes of transformation without fear and to look to the future with hope.

This invitation was directed to everyone: teachers, students, parents, society; every field and discipline; the various intellectual, scientific, artistic, athletic, political, economic, entrepreneurial expressions, in support of young people.

Entrusted with the task of accompanying the implementation of this project, the Congregation for Catholic Education, in addition to promoting a series of conventions and events to develop the various components of the educational pact (undertaken immediately after the Holy Father’s first message of 12

Archbishop Angelo Vincenzo Zani, Secretary of the Congregation for Catholic Education. Vatican September 2019), began to follow and gather the most significant experiences in place in Catholic schools and universities and in many other educational institutions in many countries throughout the world. Given the proliferation of initiatives and perspectives which will be constantly evolving in the next years, a Committee was created with the Pontifical Foundation Gravissimum educationis, LUMSA University (Rome) and the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart (Milan).

This allowed the preparation of a vademecum for educators and a volume containing guidelines for universities.

While the former, the objectives of the Global Compact indicated by the Pope are developed, the guidelines expand on five thematic areas in which the Compact can be applied to develop academic, scientific and cultural initiatives: human dignity and rights; fraternity and cooperation; technology and integral ecology; peace and citizenship; culture and religion.

Keeping in mind that the proposal of an educational compact aims at finding a global convergence in a “common home” for the Earth’s inhabitants, and an alliance that generates peace, justice, acceptance between all peoples and dialogue among religions, the Dicastery’s work is carried out in fruitful and productive collaboration with other entities in the Holy See. What types of formative institutions fall under the Congregation’s competence and what tasks are assigned to it at the level of organizing, directing and promoting their activity?

The Congregation has the task of

deepening, developing and promoting the fundamental principles of Catholic education, as proposed by the Magisterium of the Church, both regarding the People of God, as well as society at large. In this sense, it is committed to ensuring that the faithful can fulfill their obligations in this area, and that society at large might also recognize and protect their rights. In that context, constructive dialogue undertaken with national institutions and international organisms is significant.

In particular, the Congregation establishes guidelines for Catholic schools, many of which were founded by and are managed by religious Congregations. It assists Diocesan Bishops in their role of supervision over the quality of service these schools provide, the training of formators, religious education and the pastoral care of students. In addition to schools, the Dicastery follows Catholic universities and assists the Bishops in the formulation of norms for the application of the Constitution Ex corde Ecclesiae so that they might accompany these academic institutions in developing the various disciplines while taking into account Christian inspiration and in promoting various forms of pastoral care at the university level.

“Our student-athletes have worked tremendously hard over the last several months and are prepared to compete this season,” said Warner, who served as an assistant coach in the Women’s Soccer program

for five years before his promotion this summer.

“Though there was no 2020 season, the team took an opportunity to forge an even stronger bond, which is evident in their play this season. We have a talented group of young leaders on this team and look forward to building on the successes of the program both on the field and in the classroom.”

Tocco is a graduate of North Shore High School.

She was the captain of the varsity team in her senior year. She has also volunteered as a soccer camp coach.

When Parents Have No Place To Turn Growing up, Timmy appeared to be a little bit different than other children his age.

He would cry often and have frequent temper tantrums. His parents brought him to see an early intervention therapist and his symptoms lessened for a few years. But in middle school, his frustration returned in the form of anger, both verbal and physical. Typical back talk turned into confrontations. Timmy would throw objects and began to attack his parents. They eventually reached their limit and started giving into his behaviors to stop the fighting.

Timmy’s parents felt alone and helpless. They didn’t know where to turn to get their child the care he so desperately needed until a school guidance counselor suggested they call North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center and ask about the Family Advocate Program.

Through this innovative program, parents who are overwhelmed trying to navigate the maze of services available

PARENTING PLUS Paul Danilack

for their child are paired with one of the Guidance Center’s Family Advocates. These credentialed professionals aren’t therapists; rather, they are parents of their own children with special needs and are trained to educate, teach, guide and empower other parents to better understand their children and their needs.

With an individualized, family-driven approach, the Guidance Center’s Family Advocates meet with the parents to learn about their child’s particular issues. Some chil-

dren have serious behavioral problems, acting out verbally or even physically. Some refuse to go to school. Some struggle with severe anxiety or depression. Many of the problems children are living with have been exacerbated by the stresses caused by the pandemic.

Family Advocates provide a wide range of information and support, attending evaluations with parents; going to CSE (Committee on Special Education) meetings; helping build skills within the family to manage difficult behaviors; finding residential placement when indicated; and seeking inpatient hospitalization if needed. In addition, while Family Advocates don’t provide therapy, they can help parents and their children access those services.

Family Advocates work with parents and the child’s therapist to help design a plan to modify their youngster’s negative behavior. For example, Family Advocates help parents create behavioral

charts to develop a uniform approach of rewards and consequences. These strategies help motivate children to listen more carefully and respond in appropriate ways. Moreover, Family Advocates can act as a bridge to many services, such as the school, individual counseling, case management and more, so everyone involved in the child’s life are on the same page when it comes to addressing his or her needs.

Families with children who have developmental disabilities often feel secluded and without support. The Guidance Center’s Family Advocates are well informed about New York State’s Office for People with Developmental Disabilities as well as the process to become eligible for those services, which include respite counselors, community habilitation workers and housing availabilities, among others.

Another important feature of the Family Advocate Program is a weekly support group (now mostly virtual, though in person once a month), where

parents share their challenges and successes, bouncing ideas off each other, talking about what worked and what didn’t, and building a social support network with others who are experiencing similar challenges. They learn that they are not alone, and they develop close, caring relationships with their parent peers.

In summary, Family Advocates work to empower each family with a personalized approach, with recommendations and assistance based on what’s best for each client.

They care deeply about every family as demonstrated by their compassion toward and knowledge of what can be a very difficult situation.

According to a new study by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the first month of the year is the worst for carbon monoxide poisoning. At least two people die each day from carbon-monoxide poisoning in January—three times the fatality rate recorded in August and July. Unintentional carbon monoxide exposure accounted for approximately 15,000 emergency room visits annually over the past decade, with an average of 439 people dying each year.

Fatalities were highest among men and senior citizens: Men because they are engaged in more high-risk behaviors such as working with fuel-burning tools or appliances and seniors because they are likely to mistake the symptoms of CO poisoning (headaches, nausea, dizziness or confusion) for the flu or fatigue.

It should come as no surprise that CO deaths are the highest in winter (December is the second highest month). Cold weather increases the use of gas-powered furnaces as well as the use of risky alternative heating and power sources (portable generators, charcoal briquettes, propane stoves or grills) during power outages. It’s also understandable that the highest CO death rates are

in colder states: Nebraska, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana and North Dakota. By contrast, California has the lowest fatality rate.

With these sobering facts it’s a good time to remember the following safety tips to prevent CO poisoning: • Have your heating system, water heater and any other gas, oil or coal-burning appliance inspected and serviced by a qualified technician every year.

• Install battery-operated CO detectors on every level of your home.

• Don’t use a generator, charcoal grill, camp stove or other gasoline or charcoal-burning device inside the home, basement or garage or outside the home near a window.

• Don’t burn anything in an unvented stove or fireplace.

• Don’t let a vehicle idle inside a garage attached to a house, even if the garage door is left open.

• Don’t heat a house with a gas oven.

If a CO detector sounds, leave your home immediately and call 911 from outside. Seek prompt medical attention if you suspect CO poisoning and if you or someone in your household is feeling dizzy, light-headed or nauseated.

Robert Nathaniel Heimberg

Robert Nathaniel Heimberg, 86, of Annapolis, MD, died peacefully January 9, 2022. Robert was born February 18, 1935 in Bronx, NY. The son of Louise and Joseph Heimberg. Robert lived the majority of his life in NY State. Only moving away from his beloved home as aging made it a necessity.

Robert worked in the jewelry industry for most of his life, maintaining customer relationships up until his death. Robert also pivoted into the world of social work as he found a second career later in life.

Robert was an avid tennis player and spent countless hours on the tennis courts of Manhasset and Somers, NY. He was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, uncle and friend. He loved people, cherished family, music, dancing, gardening, and dogs.

Robert was a true New Yorker who always felt at home in New York City. He especially enjoyed Broadway shows and the Metropolitan Opera. He found pleasure in creating lyrical prose and shared his wordsmithing with many friends throughout his life.

Anthony Edward Spinetta of Manhasset, NY passed away in his 107th year, at home surrounded by his loving family on January 5, 2022. He was born on April 10, 1915 in Greenwich Village, NY. He was predeceased by his beloved wife, Yolanda of 75 years. He is survived by daughters, Alice Salerno (Nicholas), Barbara Scott (predeceased Donald) and Debora Spinetta (Angel), grandchildren Nicole Morton (Andris), Marc Salerno (Kathleen), Karen Salerno (predeceased Steven ), Donald Scott (Silvania); great grandchildren, Sydney, Steven, Nicholas, Alexis, Janea, James, Luke, Kate, Clayton and Donald Jr..

While he was a successful businessman, he would tell you it’s his family he was most proud. He had a gift for conversation, was a kind, gentle man and a wonderful storyteller. As a young boy who played ball on Ebbets Field, he shared many stories about the time he had a catch with Babe Ruth. Anthony’s legacy is his faith, devotion to family and integrity.

Anthony attended NYU and was a member Emeritus of Illuminating Engineering Society since 1953. From a young age he was industrious. He delivered ice as a young boy of 11 in his neighborhood, as a young man he worked as an engineer draftsman and established a metal foundry in Inwood, N.Y.. In 1956 he founded a lighting design and manufacturing company in Woodside, NY. As a designer and manufacturer of innovative commercial and industrial lighting fixtures, with many patents, his fixtures were specified by prominent

architects and engineers for use in projects around the world.

During World War ll he designed and manufactured lighting fixtures which were selected to be installed on U. S. War Ships. Anthony was a prominent and well recognized manufacturer and businessman, who was highly skilled in specially designed lighting for airports, art galleries museums, prisons, hospitals and many landmark buildings throughout the United States, Canada and Saudi Arabia of which he received many awards.

He enjoyed boating, traveling and was an avid swimmer and golfer. He was a member of NYAC and and the longest active member of Plandome Country Club since 1961. He has fond memories of playing golf at St. Andrews Links on several occasions well into his late 80’s with his son-inlaw and grandsons. As an avid reader he kept current with politics, sports and medicine well into his early 100’s.

He was parishioner of Saint Mary’s Church for over 70 years.

He had a wonderful long life and for that we are thankful. He will be truly missed by his loving family and friends.

The funeral mass was held at St. Mary’s Church in Manhasset, NY on Friday, January 14, 2022.

Donations can be made to: Don Scott Memorial Foundation, P.O. Box 1235, Manhasset, N.Y. 11030 and / or Hospice Care Network, 99 Sunnyside Blvd., Woodbury, N. Y. 11797. 229363 S

The Purchaser acknowledges that the tax lien(s) sold pursuant to these Terms of Sale may be subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/ or may become subject to such proceedings which may be commenced during the period in which a tax lien is held by a successful bidder or the assignee of same, which may modify a Purchaser’s rights with respect to the lien(s) and the property securing same.

Such bankruptcy proceedings shall not affect the validity of the tax lien.

Dated: January 12, 2022 THE NASSAU COUNTY TREASURER Mineola, NewYork TERMS OF SALE Such tax liens shall be sold subject to any and all superior tax liens of sovereignties and other municipalities and to all claims of record which the County may have thereon and subject to the provisions of the Federal and State Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Acts.

However, such tax liens shall have priority over the County’s Differential Interest Lien, representing the excess, if any, of the interest and penalty borne at the maximum rate over the interest and penalty borne at the rate at which the lien is purchased.

The Purchaser acknowledges that the tax lien(s) sold pursuant to these Terms of Sale may be subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/ or may become subject to such proceedings which may be commenced during the period in which a tax lien is held by a successful bidder or the assignee of same, which may modify a Purchaser’s rights with respect to the lien(s) and the property securing same.

Such bankruptcy proceedings shall not affect the validity of the tax lien. In addition to being subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/or the Federal and State Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Acts, said purchaser’s right of foreclosure may be affected by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act(FIRREA),12 U.S.C. ss 1811 et.seq., with regard to real property under Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation(FDIC) receivership.

The County Treasurer reserves the right, without further notice and at any time, to withdraw from sale any of the parcels of land or premises herein listed. The Nassau County Treasurer reserves the right to intervene in any bankruptcy case/litigation where the property affected by the tax liens sold by the Treasurer is part of the bankruptcy estate. However, it is the sole responsibility of all tax lien purchasers to protect their legal interests in any bankruptcy case affecting their purchased tax lien, including but not limited to the filing of a proof of claim on their behalf, covering their investment in said tax lien. The Nassau County Treasurer and Nassau County and its agen-

LEGAL NOTICES

cies, assumes no responsibility for any legal representation of any tax lien purchaser in any legal proceeding including but not limited to a bankruptcy case where the purchased tax lien is at risk.

The rate of interest and penalty at which any person purchases the tax lien shall be established by his bid. Each purchaser, immediately after the sale thereof, shall pay to the County Treasurer ten per cent of the amount for which the tax liens have been sold and the remaining ninety per cent within thirty days after such sale. If the purchaser at the tax sale shall fail to pay the remaining ninety per cent within ten days after he has been notified by the County Treasurer that the certificates of sale are ready for delivery, then all amounts deposited with the County Treasurer including but not limited to the ten per cent theretofore paid by him shall, without further notice or demand, be irrevocably forfeited by the purchaser and shall be retained by the County Treasurer as liquidated damages and the agreement to purchase shall be of no further effect. Time is of the essence in this sale. This sale is held pursuant to the Nassau County Administrative Code and interested parties are referred to such Code for additional information as to terms of the sale, rights of purchasers, maximum rates of interest and other legal incidents of the sale.

Furthermore, as to the bidding, 1. The bidder(s) agree that they will not work with any other bidder(s) to increase, maintain or stabilize interest rates or collaborate with any other bidder(s) to gain an unfair competitive advantage in the random number generator in the event of a tie bid(s) on a tax certificate. Bidder(s) further agree not to employ any bidding strategy designed to create an unfair competitive advantage in the tiebreaking process in the upcoming tax sale nor work with any other bidder(s) to engage in any bidding strategy that will result in a rotational award of tax certificates.

2. The tax certificate(s) the Bidder will bid upon, and the interest rate(s) bid, will be arrived at independently and without direct or indirect consultation, communication or agreement with any other bidder and that the tax certificate(s) the Bidder will bid upon, and the interest rate(s) to be bid, have not been disclosed, directly or indirectly, to any other bidder, and will not be disclosed, directly or indirectly, to any other bidder prior to the close of bidding.

No attempt has been made or will be made to, directly or indirectly, induce any other bidder to refrain from bidding on any tax certificate, to submit complementary bids, or to submit bids at specific interest rates.

3. The bids to be placed by the Bidder will be made in good faith and not pursuant to any direct or indirect, agreement

or discussion with, or inducement from, any other bidder to submit a complementary or other noncompetitive bid.

4. If it is determined that the bidder(s) have violated any of these bid requirements then their bid shall be voided and if they were the successful bidder the lien and any deposits made in connection with said bid shall be forfeited.

By Holiday Mathis

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It is silly to wait until something is wrong to do the thing you enjoy. You don’t need excuses to take part in whatever you think is fun. Flexing your creativity doesn’t have to be an indulgence. Why not make something just because you want to? It could be the very best reason. Your work will produce satisfying results.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re observant because you have the energy for it.

You’re comfortable in your skin and therefore aren’t preoccupied with thoughts about yourself and how you’re coming across; this allows you to focus on the world. You’ll notice what others don’t, and you’ll turn these observations into opportunities.

Ring each word as you find it and when you have completed the puzzle, there will be 18 letters left over. They spell out the alternative theme of the puzzle.

Across the ditch Solution: 18 Letters

CANCER (June 22-July 22). It’s a week of daring questions. You could ask, “What are you really saying?” You could ask, “What world do you live in?” You could ask, “Why?” Of all the answers you get, it will be your own answer to these questions that’s the most interesting to unpack.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You would like to instantly provide what others need; however, even if it were possible, it wouldn’t be healthy. You are not a magic genie. It creates co-dependency to let others think of you this way. Serve your own interests up front; it will put you in a position to do more for others.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re in the mood to spend! To prevent buyer’s remorse, be savvy to the tricks of marketing. Bulk discount buys and wording such as “limited supply” are suspect. Stay aware of what you really need. Many luxurious experiences can be had for a few cents -- a long hot shower, for instance -- and beauty rest is free!

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The map is just a guideline. When it tells you something different from what you see on the ground, the ground wins. The truth is under your feet. Trust your senses, your judgment and your process. Your experience may not be the same as other people’s but it’s valid.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You want to get right with the balance of the world in all kinds of ways. You’ll tabulate your debts -- financial, psychic, emotional or karmic -- and review, assess and know the bottom line. Once you pay up, the part of your life that seemed whimsical will finally settle in and fall under your control.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The people in your life are there because you want them there, not because you need them. Still, you’re thinking of taking things to the next level, going from someone’s “other” to someone’s “only.” Whether business or personal, exclusivity is a big step not to be rushed into. Think on it another week.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The one who makes you feel like there’s something special and magical in your future is a person you should hang out with more often.

The end of conversation will be like a leap without a landing. Unfinished thoughts, beautifully incomplete, providing tension instead of closure... This is addictive.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It’s said that penguins fall in love and even give each other gifts. Penguins have been observed searching an entire beach for the right pebble to bring a mate. You’ll feel a bit like the loyal bird this week as you try to please someone in a very specific and meaningful way. Your gesture will go straight to the heart.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS:

Little by little you’ll take on more challenges until you realize you can trust yourself in any situation. You’re quick, adaptable and ready to seize opportunity. The difficulties of the past have made you not only able but appreciative, so when the victory comes, you can really enjoy it. You’ll share what you know and earn wealth and respect.

You’ll devote yourself to projects with a level of conviction that is very attractive on you.

Before you know it, you’ll have an entire team behind you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re not going to come up with everything on your own because no one does. Furthermore, your associations will matter.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Though it’s natural to be wary of commitments that seem far-reaching, long-term or overly constrictive, these may be precisely the type of arrangements that can organize your life in a beneficial way. Consider taking on a responsibility. Investigate further. You can afford to be daring.

CONTRACT BRIDGE — BY STEVE BECKER

CONTRACT BRIDGE By Steve Becker

FOR RELEASE TUESDAY, JANUARY 18, 2022

Scintillating defense South dealer.

Neither side vulnerable.

NORTH ♠A ♥9 3 ♦A943 ♣ Q J 10 9 8 3 WEST EAST ♠ K J 10 9 7 2 ♠53 ♥ Q 10 4 ♥8 7 2 ♦65 ♦K872 ♣K 5 ♣7 6 4 2 SOUTH ♠Q864 ♥A K J 6 5 ♦ Q J 10 ♣A The bidding: South West North East 1♥ 1♠ 2♣ Pass 3 NT Opening lead — jack of spades.

A defender usually does not precisely know the combined assets he and his partner hold, while declarer can see exactly where his strengths and weaknesses lie.

To overcome this natural disadvantage, a defender should try to avail himself of every possible source of information. He always has the bidding to go on, as well as the plays already made by his partner and declarer. Often, he can draw crucial inferences from the clues that emerge.

Consider this deal where declarer won the jack-of-spades lead in dummy and finessed the jack of hearts. West won with the queen and then found the only return to defeat the contract.

Gauging the situation perfectly, West led the five of clubs! South won with the ace and, after cashing four heart tricks, finessed the queen of diamonds. East took the king and returned a spade, and West cashed two spades and a club to nip the contract by a trick.

Had West led any other card at trick three, South would have gotten home safe and sound. The club lead looks suicidal, and yet it was a very sound play.

West could not be certain of the location of the ace of clubs, but he calculated that the club return was safe regardless of who had it.

He reasoned that if East had the ace, the club play was surely right, since it would allow East to return a spade, while if South had the ace, it was bound to be singleton! West drew this inference from the fact that South surely would not have attacked hearts at the outset rather than clubs had he held the A-x of clubs. Declarer’s failure to try to establish dummy’s clubs strongly indicated that the suit was not of much use to him, and West took full advantage of that knowledge.

Calling It Like It Is

Good Sam’s Davi Santos talks about CBS’ new medical drama

BY ANTHONY MURRAY

amurray@antonmediagroup.com

B

orn in Rio De Janeiro and raised in the outskirts of New York City in Astoria, Queens, actor Davi Santos has channeled his diversity into a burgeoning résumé. He’s appeared in numerous television shows including Tell Me A Story, Law & Order True Crime: The Menendez Murders, Switched at Birth, Will & Grace, and more. Now you can see Santos as Dr. Joey Costa in CBS’ newest show Good Sam—a medical procedural drama in which he stars opposite Sophia Bush and Jason Isaacs.

The medical drama follows Dr. Sam Griffith (Bush), a gifted heart surgeon who excels in her new leadership role as chief of surgery after her renowned boss falls into a coma. When her boss wakes up months later demanding to resume his duties, Sam is tasked with supervising this egotistical expert who never acknowledged her stellar talent.

Complicating matters, the caustic and arrogant Dr. Rob “Griff” Griffith (Isaacs) also happens to be her father.

“Dr. Joey is a die-hard, no bullshit, calling it as it is type of person,” Santos said about his character. “The large part of Joey in the first half of the season is learning how to work with his friends and learning how to call them friends as opposed to rivals. He comes to terms with what really matters and it’s about his friends, his work and his love life.”

So what does Santos hope the show conveys in its messaging to viewers?

“Sometimes what we want can also hurt us and we have to learn balance and also face our obstacles and challenges with love,” Santos said. “Sophia, who plays Sam, is facing off against her dad and the most brutal moments happen when they lose sight that they’re family when they’re really just fighting for the job. Sometimes when we lose sight of the relationship or the human behind any of our interactions, it’s really easy to go into fight mode. I think the fun and the joy of the show is when these people go into their fight modes, but the other half is also when we see how devastating it becomes when we lose sight of the person behind it. Hopefully that’s the message that people can take [away].”

When it comes to working with Bush and his other cast mates, Santos said it’s intense camaraderie on set.

We all agreed to take off our Sundays to have our own reading and to talk about the script on our own time. The mood on set is really positive.”

So how did Santos get involved in

show biz? According to Santos, it all started after his parents found him a performing arts school to attend.

“I was in an elementary school play and it was so much fun and my parents found a professional performing arts school in the city, which required an audition,” Santos recalled. “So I auditioned

and learned what a monologue was, and put one together in two days. Before I knew it I was surrounded by kids who were on Broadway and were in movies with Angelina Jolie.”

Good Sam is on Wednesdays at 10 p.m. on CBS. Good Sam is also available on demand on Paramount+

Trading His Morpher For A Scalpel Davi Santos as Sir Ivan of Zandar

(Photo source: Screencap from YouTube)

Davi Santos cannot only be considered a hero in the operating room as Dr. Joey Costa, but he can also be considered an action hero. From 2015-16, Santos played Sir Ivan of Zandar—the 13th century knight and Gold Dino Charge Power Ranger on Power Rangers Dino Charge and Power Rangers Dino Supercharge on Nickelodeon.

He even has his own action figure to boot.

The two seasons followed the Rangers quest to track down and find 10 powerful and mysterious

Energems that dated back to the extinction of the dinosaurs.

Not only were the Rangers on a mission to get the Energems, but so was the evil bounty hunter Sledge and his intergalactic gang of misfits.

“There was this episode where we were enjoying ourselves at these big sand dunes surfing down on these boogie boards,” Santos said about his most memorable moment filming the show in Auckland, New Zealand. “We were rigged up on a cool open-air jeep and were driven up to the top and then back down. The cameras were on drones. It was the most fun day ever and it was bonding. I think that was the best memory of the show. Everything off camera too was such a joy to be around that city and town.”

Due to the show being filmed in New Zealand, a lot of locals on the island also had starring roles including actor Ryan Carter, who played the big bad duo Heckyl and Snide—an homage to Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde—in the second season.

“Since he was local, I joined up with him and we went around the island,” Santos also recalled.

“Auckland is a theater town, so I was watching concerts and plays all the time. I was the only cast mate that extended his time [in New Zealand] when we finished to enjoy it more.”

If you want to watch Power Rangers Dino Charge and Dino Supercharge with your kids or grandkids, full episodes can be found on YouTube.
