Oyster Bay Musician ‘Going Home’ With New Music Video Shot At Alma Mater BY TIM SEEBERGER

tseeberger@antonmediagroup.com

tevie Matthews isn’t a typical 25-year-old songwriter. Some would expect classic garage rock or today’s indie pop. But he’s going in a different direction - a more wholesome direction. Matthews describes himself as a musician who makes “children’s music for adults,” and the Oyster Bay native just put out a music video for “Going Home” off his 2021 EP of the same name to show off his style. The music video features Oyster Bay High school, his alma mater growing up and features “animated cut outs” as Matthews dances around in the school’s football field, singing out about the joys of going home and experiencing life where he grew. Its message centers around gratitude and appreciating life. “I just hope the video makes people feel good,” Matthews said. “I hope that people get up, dance and sing along.” The music video encompasses all the parts that go into the songs he writes. When he was young, Matthews recalled his parents playing The Beatles, Count Basie and Steely Dan around the house. Back when he was in the same school as a 13-year-old, he remembers having a great desire to pick music up. “I need to run to a drum set and guitar and make as much noise as possible,” he joked. Joining his school’s band, his teachers recognized his passion and encouraged him along in his journey to learning the drums. He said that although he lacked the musical technical skills, his determination clearly showed. Matthews went onto Drexel University for Animation and Fine Art. Although he said he wasn’t “audition ready” to get into a music conservatory, Matthews said he took a songwriting class in school that completely changed the way he wrote music. As a senior, he even worked with composers and jazz musicians to write the end credits for his senior animation project. After college, he began to hone his chops as a musician, playing American Standards on the piano in Huntington Village in 2019 and 2020.

“It forced me to be a better player,” Matthews said. That time was formative for him, as he realized he wanted to start writing new American Standards for the 21st century. It led him to the playful, uplifting style he writes now. “The music is never childish, never patronizing,” Matthews said.

He draws inspiration from many places for his songs, work ethic and style. Music by Randy Newman, and songs from TV shows like The Muppets and Adventure Tim and Steven Universe (both which happen to be animated,) have influenced his songs. As for his work ethic, he pulls a page out of a new genre, bedroom pop. The name comes from musicians who record music themselves from the comfort of their bedroom, making the most of what resources are available. Artists like Clairo, Gus Dapperton and 100 Gecs are all artists that have paved the way for the style. “It’s empowering to see that not Berkeley [College] kids are putting themselves out there,” Matthews said. He’s a bedroom pop artist as well. He was temporarily furloughed from his job in May 2021, so he set a goal to record an EP for two weeks before he went back to work. After recording demos and layering track after track after track, the end result was “Going Home,” a record jam-packed with playful songs about a variety of inspiring topics. “I want to write music that encourages adults to break the barrier of self-consciousness,” Matthews said. “All that matters is that you’re experiencing a sincere message.” “Going Home,” the lead single is the

song that Matthews shot the video for in Oyster Bay. Knowing it would take years to animate a video on his own, he cut out “animated characters” to float around him as he danced in a marching band outfit, paying homage to the club he was a part of on weekends in the nearby football stands. Shot over two days with the help of family and friends, Matthews said that “everyone was really into it and it turned out really well.” When he put it online, he had no expectations of how many people would see it. Since uploading it, the video has amassed 3,500 views. For the future, Matthews is just going to keep writing and see what doors open as he progresses as a musician. He hopes that he can write songs that are timeless, much like the American Standards that have inspired his songwriting.

Nurse pods at three Glen Cove elementary schools are up and running and are doing exactly what they were intended to do: protecting students and teachers and helping to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The newly constructed structures were created with funding secured by Assemblyman Charles Lavine at the height of the COVID outbreak. Inside each pod are isolation spaces so that the nurses can monitor people with possible COVID symptoms. To pay for the pods, Lavine awarded a State and Municipal Facilities (SAM) grant in the amount of $250,000 to the Glen Cove School District. On Sept. 20, Lavine got a firsthand look at the pod at the Landing Elementary School in Glen Cove. Also on-hand was Glen Cove School District Superintendent Dr. Maria Rianna, Landing Elementary School Principal Alexa Doeschner, and several students.

“We must remain vigilant with the recent surge in COVID cases due to the Delta variant.” Lavine said. “That means following federal and state guidelines with regards to mask use, maintaining social distancing protocols and taking advantage of the free and readily available vaccine as it’s the best way to fight this virus.” —Submitted by the Office of Assemblyman Charles Lavine

Farmingdale High School students create commemorative mural

hey were not born yet, but through discussions and story sharing, students from Farmingdale High School were able to perfectly illustrate a vital transition that is being ushered in by time: their ability to feel as we experienced, since they cannot possibly remember the events of September 11, 2001. Farmingdale Remembers is the annual observance commemorating the tragic events of 9/11. It is hosted by the Farmingdale Community Summit Council and held each year at the 9/11 Memorial located at the Farmingdale Public Library. In honor of the twentieth anniversary, Farmingdale High School senior Jaxon Rivera and junior Abbygail Burns created a beautiful mural depicting both the somber memory and pure camaraderie that New Yorkers endured on that fateful day.

“We are so proud that our students were able to perfectly capture the feelings we felt after our lives were changed forever,” Farmingdale High School art teacher Lisa Gramarossa said. “As educators, we believe that it is our duty to pass down our memory to future generations through narratives and visual expression.” Rivera’s and Burns’ painting features Lady Liberty embracing the towers of light deep in space. They wanted to exhibit a feeling of global community and mourning. The final image perfectly illustrates the spirit that has passed and our firm will to remember. The students first painted the artwork onto a large wood panel under the supervision of art teachers Amanda Rummenie and Lisa Gramarossa. The painting was then professionally printed onto a large canvas which

now lives on in perpetuity in the Farmingdale Public Library main entrance. In addition, the student’s artwork was featured on the cover of the Farmingdale Remembers program. The Farmingdale Community Summit Council was formed during the highly emotional time following September 11, 2001. The summit represents a “coming together” of residents, organizations, merchants, and houses of worship in the communities that comprise the Farmingdale School District for the common good of all.

Students and community members alike are coming together to help support this thoughtful cause. Rock Can Roll currently partners with a number of religious organizations, schools, clubs, concerts, and other gatherings to collect food and other household necessities. However, the organization has greatly expanded since its humble beginnings. Aimee Holtzman, the founder of Rock Can Roll, started the organization as a way to help those on Long Island experiencing food insecurity, but it has grown into something much bigger. Combining her passion for rock music and helping the community, Aimee created Rock Can Roll. “I thought how great it would be to have rock concerts and people bringing and doing and making a difference

Power To Feed Long Island Succeeds

SEG Long Island’s Power to Feed Long Island initiative has exceeded its goal, raising the equivalent of 21,944 meals—nearly a thousand more meals than its 21,000meal objective. Three months and six food drives yielded 10,106 pounds of food and supplies, plus nearly $2,200 in cash donations, and online donations totaling more than $4,000. On Sept. 27, along with representatives from Island Harvest Food Bank, small business owners, community volunteers and Girl Scouts who contributed to the initiative, the company announced the results of its Power to Feed Long Island initiative at the food bank’s Melville warehouse. “We are proud that our community came out to support each other and fight hunger through our Power to Feed Long Island food drives,” said Daniel Eichhorn, president and COO of PSEG Long Island, and Island Harvest Food Bank board member. “We set a lofty goal in July, and Long Islanders showed up in force with shopping carts and trunks full of food and supplies to meet the challenge.

to make it happen.” “We are incredibly grateful to PSEG Long Island for their longstanding commitment to addressing the issue of hunger and food insecurity on Long Island,” said Randi Shubin Dresner, president and CEO, Island Harvest Food Bank. “Thanks to their concern and generosity and the success of the Power to Feed Long Island initiative, countless Long Islanders struggling to feed their families will be able to rest easier knowing that they will have access to something as basic as food.” Power to Feed Long Island was created to restock the shelves at Island

Harvest to enable the nonprofit to provide community members in need with nutritious food, personal care items, baby essentials and pet supplies. Food drive events were held at six supermarkets—King Kullen in Garden City Park/New Hyde Park and Shirley; Stew Leonard’s in East Meadow; and Stop & Shop in Huntington Station, Islandia and Massapequa—from July through September, when vacations cause a decrease in donations, and collection drives are not top of mind. It is also a time when children out of school are not receiving daily free or

reduced-cost breakfast and lunch, which puts a heavier burden on their families. “Stop & Shop is proud to continue its committed support of the efforts of Island Harvest to address food insecurity across Nassau and Suffolk counties,” said Stefanie Shuman, community relations manager, Stop & Shop. “Power to Feed Long Island allowed our customers to take part in food drives held at Stop & Shop stores and help their neighbors in need. It’s important that we all come together during these very difficult times,” she added. Along with the economic hardships caused by the pandemic, there is a significant strain on the supplemental food supply chain. The collection drives continued through September, Hunger Action Month. More than a dozen PSEG Long Island employees participated in the food drives as Power to Feed Long Island ambassadors. They agree that safely getting back out into the community to help their neighbors was a rewarding experience.

Saliva-Based COVID Testing Site Opens

yster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and Massapequa Park Village Mayor Daniel Pearl announced a new saliva-based COVID testing site for the convenience of local residents will be available at the Marjorie Post Park Community Center on Mondays from noon to 6 p.m. “We are pleased to expand upon our COVID testing availability to help further accommodate residents, including students and faculty from the Massapequa area. Through our

partnership with ProPhase Labs, we have been providing this highly-effective saliva testing, a great non-invasive alternative to a traditional COVID test,” said Saladino. “Many local school districts, community members and their families have taken advantage of this free service and we are happy to partner with the Village of Massapequa Park to further serve our residents.” The saliva-based test is proven to quickly detect and identify COVID-19 and any of its 17+ current viral mutations. ProPhase Labs has the capacity

to provide test results to individuals within 24 hours from the time when one of its labs receives and accepts a specimen. For residents who prefer traditional testing, nasopharyngeal swabs can be administered upon request. “We thank the Town of Oyster Bay for their assistance in making this important service easily available to the residents of Massapequa Park,” said Pearl. “Continuing to support our school districts with continuing athletic activities and other community

events is a high priority, and this service provides a safe method to further help our residents.” Testing will be regularly administered on Monday afternoons, including Columbus Day, Monday, Oct. 11. The Marjorie Post Park Community Center is located in Massapequa at the intersection of Unqua and Merrick Roads (451 Unqua Rd.). No appointment is necessary, but residents can register in advance by visiting www. oysterbaytown.com/testing. —Submitted by the Town of Oyster Bay

Haitian Immigrant Doctor Awarded “Woman Of The Month” By P.O.W.E.R. Magazine P.O.W.E.R. Magazine, the Professional Organization of Women of Excellence Recognized, awarded Dr. Lodze Steckman from Jouvence Aesthetics & Wellness, Woman of the Month of October in the field of Cosmetic Surgery. “Doctor Steckman, trained in cardiothoracic and cosmetic surgery, has broken barriers in her field, especially as a woman of color who grew up in poverty,” said POWER Executive Director Sari Meyer. “Thanks to her commitment to medicine, today Dr. Steckman is

improving the level of safety in the field of cosmetic surgery. We proudly recognize the safety and excellence she brings to the industry.” Dr. Steckman was born in Haiti to a single mother in a home with no running water, yet through hard work and determination rose to the upper echelons of the medical profession. “I thank P.O.W.E.R. for this recognition. My mother instilled in me that education was important,” Dr. Steckman said. “Following her guidance, by age 30 I was the chief surgeon at two hospitals. Today I have my own

cosmetic surgery practice on Park Ave. Young women must recognize that anything is possible with hard work.” Despite her success, Dr. Steckman still works in emergency rooms struggling to provide medical care. During one recent shift in an ER, a young autistic man showed up with a stab wound. “He was a troubled young man,” Dr. Steckman said. “His family could no longer care for him due to his size and violent outbursts.” After placing a tube in his chest, Steckman was forced to sedate and intubate him so he would

not hurt himself. After a long night, the young man’s mother thanked Steckman, “I’m so grateful you were on tonight,” she said. “I don’t like the fact that my son had to go through this, but I know that he was in good hands.” Steckman jokes patients leave healthier even if they only come for chin lipo. She owns Jouvence Aesthetics and Wellness, a cosmetic and stem cell-based regenerative medical care practice. Her website is https://jouvence-ny.com/. —Submitted by P.O.W.E.R. Magazine

Girl Scout Gold Award Candidate To Host E-Waste Collection Drive To help reduce the amount of dangerous e-waste in landfills, Councilwoman Vicki Walsh has partnered with Girl Scout Gold Award Candidate Joan Olivero to host a Cord Collection Drive. Residents are encouraged to dispose of unwanted or unused cords, cables and wires at Town Halls North and South from Oct. 1 through Oct. 15. “Disposing of cords, cables,

wires and other electronic devices through regular garbage or recycle collection is extremely dangerous, as e-waste contaminates our environment and has been linked to health issues in humans and animals, and affects the safety of food production,” Councilwoman Walsh said. “Unfortunately, e-waste is the world’s fastest growing solid waste stream and is predicted to

double by 2050, which is why our community must take action to reduce e-waste.” While the Town already invites residents to bring e-waste to the Solid Waste Disposal Complex in Old Bethpage, this partnership will make disposal even more convenient. From Oct. 1-15, e-waste collection boxes will be available between 9 a.m. and 4:45 p.m. at Town Hall

North (54 Audrey Ave, Oyster Bay) and Town Hall South (977 Hicksville Road, Massapequa). To learn more about this Gold Award Project, visit www.cordclutterconnection.com. For additional information about the collection at Town Hall, call (516) 624-6380. —Submitted by the Town of Oyster Bay

ilson and Lucy Domenech met in Williamsburg, Brooklyn in 1968. They quickly got engaged, just prior to Wilson’s deployment to Vietnam in 1969. Upon Wilson’s safe return, they wed on Oct. 9, 1971 with a ceremony at St. Peter and Paul Church in Brooklyn, followed by a reception at the Fleur de Lis. They bought their first home in Flatbush, Brooklyn where they welcomed their daughter, Diana, in 1977. In 1980, shortly after their son

Daniel was born, they moved to Farmingdale, where they have been ever since. Wilson had a career in banking, serving 25 years at Chase Manhattan Bank, and Lucy retired in 2018 from Drive Medical. They love to travel, spend time with friends and family (especially their granddaughter Gabriella), and dance salsa.

Filmmaking Family Affair BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

hen Michael Scully first read director Robert Rodriguez’s memoir Rebel Without a Crew, it inspired the then-43year-old Levittown resident to give himself until he was 45 to make his first fulllength feature film. It took his daughter Michayla to push the concept across the finish line and have the two wind up releasing MONTAUK77, a light drama that stars the father/daughter filmmaking duo and was directed by the elder Scully. “[Michayla] inspired me to put this whole project together,” the 45-year-old moviemaker said. “I’d been making short films for the past 17 years as pieces of entertainment for weddings, bar mitzvahs and events like that. She really got to me and said she knew I wanted to do a film and I should really give it a shot. She not only inspired me to do it, but she started writing it with me and I didn’t expect that. I knew that she

may be in it and we started writing characters close to myself and her, so that we could start acting it out fairly realistically. But for her to jump in and start writing it with me was a real pleasure.” MONTAUK77 was shot over the course of 14 days with a $30,000 self-described micro-budget. The epitome of guerilla filmmaking, this project was a no-frills production that found this story taking place over the course

of 23 locations while relying heavily on the support of the Levittown community. The plot centers around a middle-aged ride share driver that works for the fictional rideshare company Hitch who is reluctantly hired to transport a woman’s remains to Montauk Point. Little does the driver know, he will be asked to form a criminal pact with the deceased’s newly orphaned 15-year-old daughter. While the script

was started in June 2019 and completed in October of the same year. a fundraiser slated to be held at Levittown Hall in May 2020 got derailed by COVID-19. Undeterred. Scully and his supporters pivoted and held an online crowdfunding campaign on Indie Go Go back in December. By late March of this year, the shoot began and post production was completed in late August. During the course of the 14-day shoot, Scully was humbled by the support he received at every turn. “It was incredible to receive so much love and support for this project from our neighbors and local businesses,” he said. “Adventureland, Ocean Financial Federal Credit Union (Seaford), ½ Off Cards (Wantagh), the TWA Hotel at JFK Airport and the Levittown Public Library allowed our small crew (including Director of Photography Ethan Kornfeld and production assistant Gavin Williams) to shoot during off hours. The generosity from all around

was truly remarkable.” Having already received an overwhelmingly positive reception at a recent screening at the Bellmore Playhouse, the next stop is set to be shown at the upcoming Long Island Film Festival. But for Levittown native Scully, the influence of his community and the support he’s gotten from it were keys in making his dream become a reality. “Levittown is such a quintessential Americana town that you can’t help but be shaped by it,” he said. “It was wonderful to see all the local businesses in my hometown come together to help this project get on its feet.” MONTAUK77 was recently accepted into the New York Long Island Film Festival. The film will screen on October 23 at 3 p.m. Visit www.nyliff.com to find tickets for this event.

Elmont LIRR Station To Start Partial Service

The new Elmont LIRR station will begin partial service just in time for the opening of UBS Arena. (Contributed photo)

n just over a year, the new Elmont LIRR station, which is the first full-time station to be constructed in nearly half a century, is nearing the completion of its first phase. The milestone will allow partial service in time for the opening of the New York Islanders’ new arena that is scheduled to open in late November 2021. The new Elmont LIRR train station will be located between the Queens Village and Bellerose stations on the LIRR’s main line. The new station will provide direct service to Belmont Park from the east and west, as opposed to the LIRR spur, which only provides westbound service. Now, instead

of forcing Long Islanders who are coming from the east of Belmont to ride past Belmont Park to Jamaica station and then transfer to a train that backtracks to the spur, travelers who live east of Belmont on the Hempstead, Oyster Bay, Port Jefferson and Ronkonkoma branches will have a ride straight to Belmont. The station will be part of the $1.26 billion Belmont Park Redevelopment Project, which also includes a new 19,000-seat arena, hotel and retail village. The UBS Arena will be the new home of the New York Islanders and will also host concerts and other events. The design-build project is expected to

generate nearly $50 million in new public revenue per year and produce $725 million in annual economic output. Electric shuttle buses, which are already planned to run from parking lots within Belmont Park, will also serve LIRR riders traveling to the grandstand, UBS Arena, and planned hotel and retail village. The new full-time station will relieve pressure on the existing Belmont spur station during major events like the Belmont Stakes and will provide critically needed redundancy if there is a service disruption to the spur. —Information provided by A Modern LI

Civic Association Keeps Streets Clean

Recently members of the Lakeville Estates Civic Association (LECA) took to the streets to clean up debris that was along the sidewalks on Hillside Avenue. According to LECA’s Bill Cutrone, the sidewalks of Hillside Avenue for years have been neglected because of the conflicting

polices of New York State’s DOT and the Town of North Hempstead. State law says that the state is only responsible from curb-to-curb on state roads and the local municipality must maintain everything beyond that point, which includes sidewalks and trees. The Town of North

Hempstead feels differently, so the sidewalks and dead trees are in no man land. “The civic with its volunteers, try to maintain the best they can,” Cutrone added. —Information provided by the Lakeville Estates Civic Association

Garden City Massage Therapist Indicted For Forcibly Touching Clients And Operating Unlicensed Acting Nassau County District Attorney Joyce A. Smith announced the indictment of a New Hyde Park man on charges he inappropriately touched clients while practicing massage therapy without a license at a Garden City spa. Sut-Ho Leung (also known as “Mike”), 60, of New Hyde Park, was arraigned before Judge Robert Bogle on 14 counts of unauthorized practice of profession, two counts of forcible touching and two counts of sexual abuse in the third degree. Leung faces a potential maximum sentence of up to 4 years in prison on each of the 14 counts of

unauthorized practice of a profession. The defendant is due back in court on Nov. 12. “A relaxing massage turned threatening and disturbing when this defendant allegedly used his massage table as a means to victimize clients,” Acting DA Smith said. “NCDA believes there could be other victims and encourage anyone who believes they may have been victimized by the defendant to call the Special Victims Bureau at 516-571-1266.” According to the indictment and investigation, on Jan. 2, Leung, whose wife is believed to be the owner of O Spa, located at 927

Sut-Ho Leung (Contributed photo)

Franklin Ave. in Garden City, met with the victim for a scheduled massage. During the massage, Leung allegedly reached his hands

over the victim’s shoulders and touched her breast inappropriately. The victim tried to cover herself, but Leung allegedly continued touching the victim. Leung was practicing unlicensed at the time of the incident. Leung was arrested by the Garden City Police Department on Jan. 6. In early March of 2021, an undercover operation was initiated at O Spa by NCDA and the Garden City Police Department. During the operation, captured on video recording, Leung was seen continuing to practice massage without a license, and was arrested on March 9.

NCDA and the Garden City Police Department continued to investigate and identified at least 10 additional victims who received a massage from Leung, who was practicing unlicensed, between Nov. 21, 2020 and Jan. 1, 2021. Leung allegedly inappropriately touched the breast of one of these additional victims on Dec. 6, 2020. If you believe you have been the victim of Sut-Ho Leung, contact the Nassau County District Attorney’s Office Special Victims Bureau at 516-571-1266. —Submitted by office of the Nassau County District Attorney

FCA Cuts Ribbon On New Garden City HQ F CA, a leading health and human services nonprofit organization on Long Island, celebrated the official opening of its new Garden City headquarters and Treiber Family Center with a ribbon cutting ceremony and open house reception on Friday Sept. 24. The 28,000 square-foot space at 377 Oak St. was donated by longtime FCA board member Scott Treiber, whose family owns the office space. “As an organization, we are deeply indebted to Scott and the entire Treiber family for this most generous gift and for their ongoing support over many years,” Dr. Jeffrey L.

Mineola Street Fair Returns This Week BY ANTHONY MURRAY

fter being cancelled last year due to the pandemic, the Village of Mineola’s annual street fair is officially back. “We’re back after taking last year off,” Mineola Chamber of Commerce President Louis Panacciulli said. “As in years past, we are featuring the finest vendors on Long Island selling their handmade and hand-picked items. You will also see our local service vendors providing important information and savings for your home, business and lifestyle. There will be live music and entertainment on two different stages as well as all types of food provided by local restaurants and food trucks. Children will enjoy mechanical rides and inflatables and our celebrity dunk tank will be back and many of our favorite elected officials will be testing residents’ pitching skills. All in all, it’s a day of family shopping and entertainment fun.” Although COVID is still circulating, the chamber says it is taking all safety precautions to keep fair-goers safe. “Our event takes place outdoors and vendors and attractions will be properly and socially distanced,” Panacciulli explained. “Masking will be encouraged at the discretion of those attending. We will have sanitizer around for people who want to use it. We have asked our vendors to follow COVID protocols too with respect to overcrowding in and around the booths.”

Thousands of people come to the village’s street fair. This photo is from 2019. (Photo by Anthony Murray) Panacciulli said that planning for this year’s street fair started in June and that once this year’s street fair concludes, they’ll immediately begin preparing for 2022’s street fair.

Cannabis Task Force Hears From Experts, Community BY CAROLINE RYAN

cryan@antonmediagroup.com

n the second of three meetings, the Town of North Hempstead’s Cannabis Task Force listened to two panelists speak about how they feel the sale and on-site consumption of recreational cannabis may negatively or positively affect the town. The recently passed New York State law, the Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act (MRTA) provides for the legalization of adult-use cannabis possession (in certain specified quantities) for use by adults 21 years of age or older in accordance with the provisions of the state law. Under New York State legislation, cities, towns and villages can render their own decision regarding recreational cannabis sales in their areas. They have until Dec. 31, 2021 to render a decision, but if they decide not to opt-out, that decision is permanent.

Experts Weigh In

The first panelist to address the members of the task force was Steve Chassman, executive director of the Long Island Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence (LICADD) and a licensed clinical social worker. Chassman provided the task force with his perspective as someone who has worked in the public health field for 30 years. “We are in the midst of an unparalleled pandemic,” Chassman said. “I’m not just referring to COVID-19. If I had the honor of standing here two years ago, my friends and some colleagues in this room have been screaming from the rooftops that Long Island, New York and America is in the midst of a devastating healthcare pandemic called the substance use pandemic. Now what does marijuana have to do with that? Uncertainty, great crisis, financial insecurity, grief and loss; there is a natural inclination for human beings to seek self-medication.” Chassman stated that other states with legalized cannabis have shown higher rates of academic under-achievement due to marijuana usage, as well an increased number of car wrecks that have occurred because of people driving while impaired. “If you saw what we saw at LICADD, in our two offices in two counties over the last 10 years— it’s been tragic. We’ve lost people. We’ve seen tragedies on News 12 every morning. Have we asked the question ‘does marijuana play a role in those?’ We know because we work in the field of mental health that the answer is yes. I know there are people on both sides of this

to dispensaries, staff with well-trained unionized workers who can educate them about cannabis, what products might be right for them because the reality is people who want cannabis will find a way to purchase it.”

Resident Feedback

During the public comment portion of the meeting, a number of residents also voiced their opinions on how the legalization of cannabis could affect the town. “I don’t want recreational marijuana in my town,” one resident said. “I am more interested in my personal well-being when a recreational marijuana user who does not have the developed judgment or has abrogated his judgment The second panelist to speak was Murugan Naidu, a pharmacist at MedMen. and gets behind the wheel and kills somebody in my town or elsewhere. I feel responsibility to control this and this process has not been thought out sufficiently. I want to keep my town healthy. I have nothing against medical marijuana, it’s properly prescribed and controlled but I am totally against recreational marijuana for open sale.” “Recreational marijuana is coming whether or not you want it,” another resident stated. “It has been legalized. I wish some of the passion that people are showing today about cannabis, I wish they would show this about alcohol because alcohol is marketed to our young people. There are liquor stores all over the place. Where is the outrage about this? This is a real problem in our society, more so than cannabis.” Steve Chassman, Executive Director of the Long Island Council on Alco“I am completely against it,” anothholism and Drug Dependence.

Curran Announces Nassau Named Safest Community In America For Second Straight Year

assau County Executive Laura Curran recently announced that Nassau County has been named the “Safest Community in America” by U.S. News and World Report for the second consecutive year. After taking the number one spot in 2020, Nassau County again ranks number one in U.S. News and World Report’s public safety ranking for 2021, a comprehensive assessment of nearly 3,000 counties based on seven metrics in three key areas: crime, injuries and public safety capacity. Individual metrics on which counties were assessed included violent crime rate, property crime rate, vehicle crash fatality rate, the share of public safety professionals within a population and per capita spending on health and emergency services. After being named the Safest Community in America by U.S. News and World Report in 2020, crime in Nassau County has continued to decline to historic lows—down 10.5 percent over the past year and 36 percent over the past decade. Over the past year in

County Executive Curran announced that the county has once again been named the second safest city in the country. (Contributed photo) Nassau, there has been a 22.2 percent decline in homicides, a 15 percent decline in burglary, and an 11 percent reduction in grand larceny. “While crime has spiked in other parts of the country, Nassau County

is safer than ever. Nassau’s success in holding crime down shows that intelligence-led, community-oriented policing works. It also shows that Nassau has the finest police department in the nation, and I’d like to thank the

brave men and women in uniform for all they do protect our communities,” Curran said. County Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder added, “The announcement by U.S. News and World Report ranking Nassau County the Safest Community in America for 2020 for the second straight year with a perfect 100 percent overall public safety score is not by chance. The hard-working dedicated men and women, both sworn and civilian, of this police department along with our Intelligence Led Policing Model have brought our crime rate to historically low levels over the past 10 years. A 31 percent drop in major crime over the past 10 years combined with another 7.4 percent year-to-date is a true testament to the excellent work being done daily. While working with our great communities and continuing our Intelligence Led Policing approach, we will continue to keep our residents living in the Safest Community in America.” —Submitted by the office of Nassau County Executive Laura Curran

he arrival of autumn brings a chill in the air, layered clothing and the gorgeous colors of a picturesque fall foliage. It also has everyone’s favorite autumnal tradition—apple picking. Whether you’re spending the day with friends or family, here are a couple of spots worth visiting. Lewin Farms Wickham’s Fruit Farm

28700 Main Rd., Cutchogue This 300-acre farm dating back to 1661 offers not only apple picking, but strawberries, raspberries, cherries, blueberries and peaches ready to pick when in season and take home. Pears, pumpkins, apricots and much more are also available for purchase, along with donuts and cider.

Harbes Family Farm and Orchard

5698 Sound Ave., Riverhead 1223 Route 25, Jamesport 715 Sound Ave., Mattituck With three different farms to visit, Harbes is a family-favorite for a reason. Their Riverhead location offers more than 10 different apple varieties for picking like Blondee, Snapdragon, Golden Delicious, Autumn Gala, Ruby Frost and Honeycrisp. In Jamesport you’ll get

lost in a corn maze, enjoy pumpkin picking and a fresh farm stand. For the Harbes vineyard and Barnyard Adventure, visit Mattituck, where more than 40 farm animals roam and games, play areas, a hedge maze, pig races and more await.

Woodside Orchard

729 Main Rd., Aquebogue 116 Manor Lane, Jamesport At Woodside Orchard, Cortland, Empire and Gala apples, among many other types, are ready for the picking. With semidwarf trees, kids will have no problem reaching for the perfect apple to take home. After you have scoured the orchards, try the farm’s variety of ciders and hard ciders,

Pumpkin Spice And Everything Nice BY ANTHONY MURRAY

amurray@antonmediagroup.com

When I was a waiter/bartender, I can attest that the most requested alcoholic beverage that customers ordered during the fall was pumpkin ale. It would sell out like hot cakes, which I’m sure if given the chance, would also be injected with pumpkin spice. Dating back to the late 1700s, pump-

kin ale may be produced using pumpkin flesh in conjunction with malt or other more typical beer grains. It may also be produced by adding natural or artificial flavor while the spice flavor may be added to evoke the flavor of pumpkin pie. Many styles of pumpkin ale are produced including pale ales, wheat beers, porters and stouts, and are produced by several breweries including Sea Dog Brewery, Shipyard Brewing Company, Saint Arnold Brewing Company and Blue Moon.

Pumpkin Lattes/ Coffee

It wouldn’t be the fall season if Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks didn’t have its pumpkin spice latte/ coffee line, which is usually launched in late August. A pumpkin spice latte is

a coffee drink made mixed with traditional fall spice flavors such as cinnamon and nutmeg, steamed milk, espresso, and topped with whipped cream. Starbucks’ pumpkin spice latte is actually a little healthier since the company now uses actual pumpkin instead of artificial coloring since 2015. You can get a pumpkin latte/coffee either hot or iced.

Pumpkin Butter

I can’t believe it’s not butter! Yes, even our butter is now pumpkin spice infused. Pumpkin butter is basically a pumpkin puree that has been combined with either maple syrup for unrefined sweetness or cinnamon for added flavor. That pumpkin puree is then simmered and reduced until it’s thick and creamy. You can find pumpkin butter

at your local North Shore Farms, Stop & Shop or Trader Joe’s. Just take some of that pumpkin butter and slather it on a pumpkin muffin, you’ll have yourself a true pumpkin feast.

Pumpkin Ravioli

You can now even stuff your raviolis with pumpkin as well. Pumpkin ravioli is traditionally served with a butter or cream sauce and can even be topped with pecans or even walnuts. Butternut squash can also be used as a nice topping for your pumpkin raviolis. In order to make the pumpkin ravioli filling, you’ll generally need 8 ounces of canned organic mashed pumpkin, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1/8 teaspoon of ground nutmeg, and salt and pepper. Those ingredients are for a 12-person serving.

226580 S

t is finally that time of year again when everything you know and love slowly becomes infused with the sweet taste of pumpkin spice. From your favorite alcoholic beverage to your much needed caffeinated pick-me-up and beyond, here is a round-up of all things pumpkin spice flavored that you can find this fall season.

Whether it’s hosting a watch party or cracking a few before heading into the big game, it’s time to vamp up the cooler with something new. SipMARGS is your fresh, new and fun canned cocktail that will become a Sunday staple. “During the pandemic, I realized that there were no real quality options on the market,” said sipMARGS co-founder Joey Angelo. “If you wanted a low-calorie canned cocktail you were limited to hard seltzer and if you wanted something with more flavor, it was full of sugar and syrup. My partners and I decided to pull our experience and

backgrounds in the spirits industry and create a low-calorie, low-sugar and low-carb margarita in a can that was still delicious.” SipMARGS are real, authentic sparkling margaritas made with top-quality tequila that are ready to go before and well after kickoff. SipMargs is a bold, great-tasting margarita in the convenience of a can, not another zero carb, zero flavor hard seltzer. This tequila lover’s dream comes in four delicious flavors: classic, mezcal, coconut and mango. Classic With bright, vibrant citrus flavor, sipMARGS Classic sparkling

margarita is equally tart and sweet with a taste reminiscent of your favorite margarita cocktail. Coconut Cool and light with unmistakable coconut essence, sipMARGS Coconut margarita is mildly sweet and refreshing with big tropical flavor. Mango The sweet, fruity taste of luscious mangoes are front and center with sipMARGS Mango margarita. Bold, juicy and effervescent. Mezcal sipMARGS Mezcal margarita brings the taste of Mexico’s traditional agave spirit to a uniquely refreshing cocktail. A

hint of smokiness, herbal notes and a touch of sweetness create a distinctively delicious flavor. “When we launched, we originally were only in the New York and New Jersey markets,” said Angelo. “Within the first few months demand was so high that we expanded our distribution to be able to ship to 35 states from our online store and are now available in-stores in Florida.” This canned cocktail brings the best tasting margarita to any gathering with ease and for any New York Jets and Giants fans the party can even continue inside, with sipMARGS being currently available for purchase at MetLife Stadium. Check out www.longislandweekly.com/sipmargs for our review of the tasty beverage and for a list of local stores and distributors on Long Island that have sipMARGS in stock.

Fall Into Party Planning What you need to know to have a festive celebration BY CHRISTY HINKO

chinko@antonmediagroup.com

or two years now the COVID pandemic has put a halt to our weddings, showers, office parties, birthdays and so many more would-be memorable celebrations. Catering halls, restaurants and party venues across the country were closed entirely, losing billions in revenue while the nation reeled from uncertainty. We are social by nature. It has only been in the recent couple of months that we have felt safe and confident to return to normal gatherings and events that we once took for granted. We recently spoke with Daniel Akilov, co-owner of the famed Floral Terrace catering venue on Jericho Turnpike, the gateway to Nassau County, about how business is going and what the general temperature is of people gathering again to celebrate joyous occasions. We were thrilled to hear business is ramping up again. The downtime has also given pause for catering venues and party organizers to rethink their business model and to expand, incorporating surprisingly refreshing ways to utilize party venues. Here’s what Akilov had to say:

What do party planners need to know in the new face of COVID? Anything new that planners have never had to worry about in the past? How does COVID change their upcoming holiday parties? “The times are drastically changing” a new system of party planning and events should be implemented, including: following any and all necessary guidelines to

ensure the health safety of guests, employees and vendors, ensuring that guests have the proper safety measures to ensure an events full success. For upcoming parties, we will follow the guidelines set by the town. For now no new guidelines were set in the village of Floral Park, but we must adhere to personal safety. Anyone who has a booked party can enjoy a worry-free environment at this time.

How busy do you expect the upcoming quarter to be, through January? Why? We are overall getting a lot of date requests during January with some dates still available. Due to COVID, last year all parties were moved to this year...not to mention the new parties that are taking place this year is bringing a lot of dates to a close. We have rescheduled plenty of parties from last year which lock dates in at a faster pace.

What are the traditional parties that Floral Terrace hosts? What kinds of parties do you want people to consider for Floral Terrace that they might not have considered? Floral Terrace has traditionally hosted weddings, proms, birthday

parties, milestones and engagements. Floral Terrace would also like to host retirements, club meetings, organizational functions, school fundraisers, PTA and business events, holiday parties, military functions and award ceremonies for first responders.

How has the Floral Park community responded to Floral Terrace in general? What is the overall relationship between your business and the community? Floral Park is a town that is the epitome of togetherness, friendliness, safety and a united front. Since the 1920s Floral Terrace’s beauty, art and events such as shows, events, galas, military balls and social events, have inspired the neighborhood to have a rather positive outlook towards the community. It gave a sense of freedom to have at least a few hours of a good time. Without the worry of tomorrow or yesterday. It brings the “living in the now” thought which captivated the community Long Island and New York for almost 100 years. We have been awarded almost every year with the best feedback when the owner George Boultadakis purchased the hall. As far as our goals, we are committed to continuing what George created with the help of Floral Park and want to reach the community in the same way as it was before the pandemic. To let the community know in the midst of “this hectic world” can be a pleasant day that makes the smile of our client worthwhile. We take pride in having events that bring gladness

to people’s hearts and I believe the community of Floral Park and abroad truly appreciate this work of art called Floral Terrace.

Why is Floral Terrace an important part of Floral Park, its history and how it defines the community going forward? Floral Terrace is one of the only event buildings in the community, as it has been since the beginning. This history is a part of all who are from Floral Park and abroad. Anyone that is a part of the community for a long time knows of, or had an event, or heard of Floral Terrace with nothing but good moments. It’s like knowing that if you heard of Floral Park then you heard of

Floral Terrace. If you live in the neighborhood, you’ve probably been to a show or been to an event here. And if you hosted an event at Floral Terrace then you have nothing but good memories. We will continue to strive for an amazing time for our guests. We are always looking to help the community by establishing town events for our first responders, medical personnel, police officers, town officials and other municipalities. We hope to have everyone from the town experience an event at our venue at least once to know the true beauty set 100 years ago. Floral Terrace is located at 250 Jericho Tpke. in Floral Park.

OUTDOORS

he New York State Department of Environmental Conservation’s (DEC) I FISH NY Program and Freshwater Fisheries Unit and the State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (State Parks) recently announced the annual Fall Family Fishing and Children’s Festival at Hempstead Lake State Park will be held Saturday, Oct. 16, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. “The Fall Family Fishing and Children’s Festival is one of our most popular events because it’s a great way to enjoy the autumn weather and learn about the fun of freshwater fishing,” DEC Acting Regional Director Merlange Genece said. “The festival combines fishing with a variety of children’s activities, and provides a rewarding family experience.” “Hempstead Lake State Park is proud to host the annual Fall Family Fishing Festival,” said State Parks Long Island Regional Director George Gorman. “With an abundance of activities to explore throughout the day, the festival provides a great introduction for both children and families to learn and experience all that fishing has to offer.” Festival activities include fishing with free loaner rods and bait, fishing instruction, casting instruction, and fish-cleaning services. In addition to fishing opportunities, there will be a children’s casting for pumpkins contest, live animal show, magician, pumpkin decorating, fish printing, and children’s slide, in addition to DEC and State Parks displays. The fishing license requirement for all anglers over the age of 16 is suspended for this festival, and admission and parking are free. The children’s casting for pumpkins contest will be held for as long as pumpkins last, during which kids can “catch” a pumpkin and “hook” a prize. Casting contest prizes are provided by I FISH NY and State Parks. Prior to the festival, State Parks will stock South and McDonald ponds in Hempstead Lake State Park with brook and rainbow trout. DEC also stocks brown trout in several other waterbodies in Nassau and Suffolk counties, including

Upper Twin Pond, Oyster Bay Mill Pond, Massapequa Reservoir, and 12 additional Suffolk County lakes. These stockings will occur by Oct. 30, and provide excellent prospects for fall fishing. A second DEC stocking will occur in early November. For more information about the

festival, call DEC’s I FISH NY Program at 631-444-0283 or Hempstead Lake State Park 516-766-1029 for event status. There is no rain date for this event. For more information about the fall trout stocking program in Nassau and Suffolk counties, call the DEC Bureau

of Fisheries at 631444-0280. General information on freshwater fishing on Long Island can be found at DEC’s Long Island/NYC Fishing webpage and more info at DEC’s Fishing webpage. —DEC

BOOK FEATURE

Diving Into The Mystery New book dives into Long Island’s possible haunts

Q A

Can you tell readers a little bit about yourself? I’m an author, photographer, historian, food writer and ghost investigator. My degree is in photography and I specialized in photojournalism. I interned with Newsday and then went on to work for local newspapers as a photographer. I was interested in the history of Huntington, where I have lived for the past 30 years, and I got involved with the Huntington Historical Society where I was First Vice President. I started my own column in the newspaper about preserving Huntington’s history. It became quite popular and it led me to write two books on the town’s history in 1995 and 1997. Since then I have written a total of nine books.

BY ANTHONY MURRAY

amurray@antonmediagroup.com

he island’s history extends beyond just the physical reality surrounding us and into the great unknown of the spiritual realm. In award-winning author and historian Kerriann Flanagan Brosky’s newest book Haunted Long Island Mysteries, you will learn about the haunted stories that involve Jericho’s Milleridge Inn, Earle-Wightman House in Oyster Bay, the Locust Valley Library, Sands-Willets House in Port Washington, and more. Haunted Long Island Mysteries What inspired you to write is now available wherever books Haunted Long Island Mysteries? are sold.

Out of the nine books I’ve written, Haunted Long Island Mysteries is the fourth ghost/history book. After I had written the two books on Huntington I was lecturing frequently on preserving Huntington’s history. Although those two books were not about ghosts, per se, there were maybe four or five stories that did have some ghost stories in them. When you are researching older homes and historic places, this is not uncommon. The Huntington Historical Society asked me if I would do a lecture in the Conklin Barn around Halloween and talk about the ghost stories from the books. It was standing room only. I could not believe how many people were interested in the topic. My lecture became an annual event. People constantly came up to me asking me to write a book just about ghosts. I had put it on the back burner for a while because I wanted to be taken seriously

as an author and as an historian. Eventually I decided to do it, and combine it with teaching local history. What better way to teach local history than through a ghost story? So in 2006 I wrote Ghosts of Long Island, Stories of the Paranormal. It was so successful that I wrote a sequel. A few years after that I wrote a third ghost book, Historic Haunts of Long Island. There were still so many more stories and history out there, that my publisher agreed to me writing Haunted Long Island Mysteries.

You worked with Joe Giaquinto, who is a medium and paranormal investigator. What was your working relationship with him when writing this book? I have been working with Joe Giaquinto since 2005. I met him at one of the lectures I was giving at the historical society, and I asked him if he would want to work on a ghost

mediumistic evaluations. He’s taught me quite a bit over the years, and I myself have gotten quite a bit of phenomena while on our investigations as well.

There are many haunted places on Long Island mentioned in your book. Was there one haunted place that you researched that shocked you? Throughout the years while writing all the books, Joe and I have investigated more than 100 haunted places on Long Island. We stay on the positive side of spiritual communication, and we stay away from anything negative or demonic. What we do is not what you see on TV and in the movies. I’ve heard and experienced a lot of things, but in this book in particular, I would have to say that the one thing that shocked me that never happened before, was when a ghost started taking photographs with my camera while I was holding it. This happened in a very haunted room at the Long Island Maritime Museum in Sayville. There was absolutely no reason why the camera would

We use recorders, cameras and what’s called a “ghost box” to get real time EVPs (electronic voice phenomena). Joe then provides me with a report and his findings, along with his

Q A

Do you believe in ghosts or spirits? Or were you a skeptic? I’ve always believed in ghosts and spirits, life after death and being able to communicate with the other side. I have spent more than 30 years studying all of these things, so, through writing the books and doing the investigations, it has confirmed what I have already believed to be true.

Q A

What do you want readers to learn from your book? I want them to understand how important it is to preserve our history on Long Island, and secondly, I want them to have a better understanding of who and what ghosts and spirits are, that life does continue after death, and that communication with our loved ones is possible.

Q A

Are you currently working on any books? At this time I am not working on another book project since Haunted Long Island Mysteries just came out. I will be on book tour through the month of October and through the middle of November. I have a total of 23 events coming up, 16 in-person events and the rest are virtual. Many of the lectures will include Joe Giaquinto who will be playing EVPs for the audience. The book is also interactive. People can go to my website and listen to the actual EVP ghost box recordings from our investigations, while following along with the transcripts that appear in many of the chapters. Through my website www.kerriannflanaganbrosky.com people can also see where I will be speaking and doing events, and they can also purchase personalized and signed books directly through me. They may also be interested in some of my other non-ghost books, which include Historic Crimes of Long Island and my novel The Medal, which is based on a true story having to do with a miracle and Padre Pio, the saint who bore the stigmata.

Airpower Museum C-47 D-Day Flight Experience Returns October 9

Living Historians and participants line up and board AAM’s WWII Douglas C-47 Skytrain “Second Chance.”

he American Airpower Museum (AAM) held two successful C-47 D-Day Living History Flight Experiences on June 12 and July 31. Due to the program’s popularity and to meet overwhelming demand for more flights, AAM has scheduled another series for Saturday, Oct. 9, (rain date Oct. 10).

Guests fly on an original WWII Douglas C-47 Skytrain Troop Transporter “Second Chance,” and they are joined by AAM’s living historians who deliver a breathtakingly realistic and unforgettable recreation of what U.S. paratroopers experienced in the Invasion of Normandy. “Second Chance,” an original WWII C-47, was transferred to the Royal Air Force (RAF) from the USAAF in 1945 and flew in the Berlin Airlift (1948-1949) with the RAF, serving until 1950. The aircraft was next transferred to the Belgian Air Force and served for two years. In 1952 she went to the French Air Force, serving two years in Viet Nam in the late 1950s, as well as in India, Algeria, Morocco and the Congo. In 1967 she was sold to Israel and flew with the Israeli Defense Force for 32 years. She was offered for sale in 1999. The aircraft was renovated by Aero Services and sold to the American Airpower Museum in 2001. “Second Chance” regularly 14A | AUTUMN! • OCTOBER 6 - 12, 2021

conducts AAM’s C-47 D-Day Living History Flights. She also performs at regional air shows in classic WWII D-Day markings with the original “D8” code. One of the last C-47s still in stock military configuration, the aircraft has more than 17,000 hours in the air, one of the world’s lowest flight times. AAM’s Living History Flight Experience is a one-of-a-kind immersive educational program, where living historians join you in an original WWII C-47 to give a sense of what 101st and 82nd Airborne Division paratroopers felt on their incredible 1,200-plane D-Day assault. Living historians are led by Robert Scarabino, Long Island’s noted WWII living historian, who has organized AAM’s C-47 D-Day Living History Flight Experiences since the program’s inception in 2003. This is a family-friendly program for all ages. Each program segment is about one hour long and each flight takes 25 minutes. A flight experience entitles you to bring

an additional person who can visit AAM’s exhibits free of charge. This is a wonderful way to educate young Americans about WWII and the Greatest Generation. Participants should arrive at AAM’s Hangar 3 at least 30 minutes before flight’s posted arrival time. What To Expect You enter the “Ready Room” and suit up in authentic military field jackets, helmets and battle gear. After a “Mission Briefing,” you join AAM’s 101st Airborne living historians, board the C-47 and experience actual sights, smells and sounds as twin engines fire up and you’re off into the blue. You hear and see the crew operate their C-47 as paratroopers ready for battle. Finally, everyone attaches their parachute hooks to the overhead static line for a simulated jump. The C-47 then returns to Republic, touches down and taxis back to Hangar 3 and you disembark. Flight Schedule Flight 1: Arrival Time-9 a.m.; Departure Time-10 a.m. Flight 2: Arrival Time-10:30 a.m.; Departure Time-11:30 a.m. Flight 3: Arrival Time-12 p.m.; Departure Time-1 p.m. Flight 4: Arrival Time-1:30 p.m.; Departure Time-2:30 p.m. The American Airpower Museum

at Republic Airport is Long Island’s only flying military aviation museum. The museum maintains a collection of aviation artifacts and an array of aircraft spanning the many years of the aircraft factory’s history. The museum is a nonprofit educational foundation chartered by the New York State Board of Regents. There are four flights on Oct. 9, between 9 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. Support AAM’s mission to honor veterans and aviation history by helping to maintain and preserve these iconic aircraft, along with the museum’s exhibits. Cost of each C-47 flight is $350. Seats are allocated first come first served and they’re going fast, so act now to book your C-47 flight by calling 516-531-3950 or visit the museum’s gift shop Wednesday to Sunday, 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Hangar 3, Republic Airport, 1230 New Highway, in Farmingdale. You may also wish to visit AAM on Oct. 9 just to watch the flights and tour the museum. In that case, admission for adults is $15, seniors and veterans are $10 and children (ages 5 to 12) are $8.

Fall Gardening Tips Autumn is the time for planting mums and spring bulbs

B This sun-drenched, three-bedroom, two-bathroom Baxter Estates gem at 16 Hilltop Rd. in Port Washington sold on Aug. 9 for $1,155,000. It is beautifully set on an oversized flat 75’ x 141’ landscaped property. The home has classic detailing, gleaming hardwood floors and high ceilings throughout. The gracious formal living room, with bay window and wood-burning fireplace, opens to a wonderful covered side porch that overlooks the gorgeous grounds and a large formal dining room. The eat-in kitchen was renovated by HGTV’s Genevieve Gorder, with built-in banquette seating. The second floor boasts of a primary bedroom with arched dressing areas, two additional spacious bedrooms and renovated full bath with double sinks. The walk-up third floor has tons of storage. The finished basement has a recreation room, laundry and a full bath. The two-and-a-half car detached garage has a separate gym/workspace. The home has central air conditioning, in-ground sprinklers and is close to town, train, shops and waterfront.

This home at 13B Hillside Ave. in Port Washington, which sold on Sept. 17 for $999,000, is restrained modernism in Baxter Estates. It is tucked away at the end of a drive and perched in the treetops; 13B Hillside blurs the boundaries between its built and natural environment. Its biggest draw is the interplay of airy volume and abundance of natural light, creating an inviting vibe. Each of main rooms offers access to a back deck. The living quarters include a spacious primary suite with a stunning bath, two generous bedrooms and a handsome hall bath. The lower level is at-grade and has a family room, laundry, mechanicals, powder room and garage access.

elieve it or not, autumn is one of the best seasons to start planting. This is because of its cool temperatures, reliable rainfall, and short, bright days which help plants make a quick transition to a fall landscape. The weather in the fall makes root growth better equipped to deal with the drought and heat of the warmer seasons. Roots will steadily grow into the winter until the ground freezes. Although there are many spectacular fall blooming plants, mums, or chrysanthemums, are by far the most popular. Available in shades of yellow, orange, white and red, mums produce small daisy-like flowers. They bloom for several weeks and require little attention. Mums are the perfect plant for entryway planters, as a border along a walkway or in window boxes and planters. September is the best time to update a landscape for fall. Before planting fall selections, remove spent annuals such as new guinea impatiens, petunias, marigolds and geraniums to make room for all that fall has to offer. In addition to chrysanthemums, consider adding other complementary fall favorites to an outdoor setting. Asters, Montauk daisies, sedum, ornamental grasses and fall anemones are all good choices for Long Island planting. They each have very different shapes, structure and color, which adds interest and depth to a garden design. Not only is fall a great time for planting mums, it’s the time to plant spring blooming bulbs for early spring flowers, such as daffodils and tulips, to create a colorful garden. Caring For Mums Taking care of mums? Chrysanthemums prefer full sun and moist, well-drained soil. Always pinch or prune back branches 1-2 inches during the growing season to keep the plants compact. Try and refrain from pruning in late June or the mums won’t flower in fall. Keep mums protected in the winter months by covering them with a layer of mulch. When looking to purchase mums, pick ones that have more buds than open flowers so that they last longer. —Hicks Nurseries

The Care And Keeping Of Your Dragon Pets are an intrinsic part of family life. Whether warm or cold-blooded, the care and keeping of another living being is more than just an idle hobby. Aside from the fact that caring for a pet can give children responsibility and can enable them to feel more secure and active, caring for a pet shows that we have the power to help the powerless. Of course, caring for a pet benefits the pet in question, but it has enormous health benefits for the caretaker as well. Caring for an animal, especially for a dog or a cat, can enable the caretaker to experience less stress, ease the effects of anxiety, depression and loneliness and can have a positive effect on cardiovascular health. Throughout much of my adult life, I have been the proud mama of several dogs. Over the years, we have had our neighbor’s children watch them whenever we went on vacation. I was grateful for their assistance, for they enabled our dogs to stay in the comfort of our home without the stress of sitting in a cage in a strange environment with strange smells and other animals all day. Our dogs were always more well-adjusted when we returned home and we owe our neighbors and their kids a debt of gratitude. Over the years, I had the pleasure of helping others with their pets when they went on vacation. I found this to be a pleasurable experience, especially because those who entrusted their pets to my care were able to vacation without worrying about their furry

family members. Dogs were my specialty, mainly because I had more than 30 years of experience with dog ownership and training. This summer changed all of that. Several weeks ago, my mom and sister and family opted to vacation on the Jersey Shore. My niece had three guinea pigs that could not accompany her on the trip, so my sister contacted me to ask whether my husband or I could watch the pigs over the weekend. Hubby jumped at the opportunity and each day he set out early to offer food and water to the little critters. In the evening, he fed and watered them again and made sure that the temperature of the house wasn’t too warm. It was his way of “paying it forward” for those times that our neighbors pitched in to help us with our dogs. Hubby’s gig with the guinea pigs opened the door to allow a dragon to enter. I mean this literally. Our daughter and her boyfriend had plans to visit his family in Delaware for a quick weekend getaway. They

Metropolitan New York Ferries—Yesterday, Today And Tomorrow (Part I) There continues to be good news from Washington concerning federal support for transportation. The United States Department of Transportation’s Federal Transit Administration (FTA) announced a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) on Aug. 6. This is an opportunity to apply for $38 million in Fiscal Year 2021 competitive grant funding for passenger ferry projects nationwide. FTA’s Passenger Ferry Grant Program funds capital projects to improve existing passenger ferry service, establish new ferry service and repair and modernize ferry boats, terminals and related facilities and equipment. Under this $38 million program, $4 million has been set aside for low or zero-emission ferries or ferries using electric battery or fuel cell components and the infrastructure to support such ferries. The nation’s largest ferry operator, with 66,000 pre COVID-19 daily riders, is the New York City Department of Transportation. The agency is a direct recipient of Federal Transit Administration funding on behalf of the Staten Island Ferry System. FTA recipients can also choose to spend whatever they receive under their share of Fiscal Year Section 5307 Urbanized Area; $4.929 billion or Section 5337 State of Good Repair $2.723 billion for ferry projects. The Federal Highway Administration has funding under several programs, including Congestion Mitigation Air Quality (CMAQ), Surface Transportation Program (STP) and others which can be flexed or transferred to FTA to also finance capital ferry projects.

Federal support for the New York City DOT Staten Island Ferry, like all transit systems, has actually remained consistent and grown over time. When a crisis occurred, be it 9/11 in 2001 or Hurricane Sandy in 2012, Washington was there for us. Additional millions in federal assistance above and beyond yearly formula allocations were provided. The same held true In 2009, with passage of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). The New York City Department of Transportation Staten Island Ferry system has benefited by more than $1 billion in grants from the FTA (previously known as the Urban Mass Transportation Administration), going back to the 1970s. A majority of the Staten Island Ferry system capital program, including the purchase of ferries, Staten Island Pier 7 ferry maintenance facility, both renovated St. George, Staten Island and Whitehall Street, Manhattan ferry terminals, midtown Pier 79 West 39th Street ferry terminal, St. George, Staten Island ferry terminal

replacement bus ramps and other support equipment necessary to run the system were all paid for primarily with federal funding. Additional funding was provided to purchase and preserve the old abandoned North Shore Staten Island Rail Road rightof-way for future restoration of transit service. The original service was terminated in 1953. This would reestablish a direct connection with the St. George, Staten Island Ferry Terminal. A past $450 million Federal Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Improvement Act (TIFIA) loan paid for rehabilitation of the St. George, Staten Island Ferry terminal bus ramps. Most FTA grants require a 20 percent hard cash local share. CARES Act funding is 100 percent federal, requiring no local share. Additional funding has also been provided under all three CARE COVID-19 bills passed by Congress and signed into law by the President. New ferry services can be implemented more quickly than construction of new subway, commuter rail or

highways. These can take years or even decades until completion of environmental reviews, planning, design, engineering, real estate acquisition, permits, procurements and construction before reaching beneficial use. Completing all of the above, along with finding funding for ferry boats, docks and parking with costs in the millions is easier than finding the billions of dollars for construction of new or extended subway, commuter rail or highways. Utilization of ferry boats equipped with fuel efficient engines can make a positive contribution to air quality. Prior to opening of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge in 1964, there was ferry service from the Bay Ridge, Brooklyn 69th Street pier to the St. George, Staten Island Ferry Terminal with connections to the Whitehall Street, Manhattan Ferry Terminal. In April 1967, the old Jersey Central Rail Road ended ferry service between Liberty Street and Pavonia, NJ. Later that year, in November 1967, the old Erie Lackawana Rail Road suspended ferry service

between Barclay Street and Hoboken. Fast forward to today. Thousands of New Jersey daily commuters use ferries from Hoboken or Weehawkeen to the downtown World Financial Center, Pier 79 West 38th Street or Pier 11 Wall Street Ferry Terminals. The Staten Island Ferry System connects St. George, Staten Island with the Manhattan Whitehall Street Ferry Terminal. Unlike the other four boroughs, 500,000 Richmond County residents have no direct subway or commuter rail system linking them with the rest of NYC.

was placed over his cage to keep him warm. I watched intently over the next few days as “Picante the Dragon” moved about his tank, from bricks to logs to his little green hammock. Whenever I called his name, he cocked his head to one side and regarded me lightly. One

day, I found him on his log, his mouth agape as though he were about to break into an aria. I texted my daughter who called me back in a fit of giggles. “He’s regulating his temperature, Mom. That’s what they do.” Honestly, I thought he was going to engage me in some rather

interesting conversation about those weird blue worms. Our daughter came to pick up her dragon this evening, grateful that we had helped her out of a jam. When she arrived, I greeted her in a t-shirt we had purchased together at Target in Hicksville. The graphic read: “Mother of Dragons.” I smiled

at her warmly as she went to collect her reptile. “That would be you, Babygirl,” I crooned softly. I saw a hint of a smile as she entered her room and whispered back, “We both are, Mom.” Indeed.

NEIGHBORS IN THE NEWS After a very long 18 months, the Argyle Theatre, located at 34 West Main St. in Babylon Village, will finally reopen its theatrical season with the Tony-award winning classic Cabaret. First presented in 1966, Cabaret won an impressive eight Tony awards, including Best Musical, which then culminated into a smashing, Oscar-winning film in 1972. Still regarded today as ‘musical theatre at its best’, Cabaret explores the dark, heady, and tumultuous life of Berlin’s natives and expatriates as Germany slowly yields to the emerging Third Reich. Argyle Theatre originally opened Cabaret on March 12, 2020. After just four performances, the theatre was shut down due to the pandemic. The theatre stayed shut until July 2021 when it reopened with a line-up of tribute bands, concerts and comedy shows. The Argyle Theatre is overjoyed to finally reopen its main stage theatrical productions with Cabaret leading the way. The

Superintendent Reflects On 45-Year Educational Career

45-year career in education, split almost exactly down the middle between the Massapequa and Franklin Square school districts, will soon come to a close for Lucille Iconis, who retired as Massapequa’s superintendent of schools on Sept. 30. She looks back fondly on the many accomplishments, the great relationships she made and the thousands of students whose lives she touched. “I know it’s time,” she said. “A fresh perspective that a new leader will bring is always healthy to any organization. There’s always room for improvement and advancement.” Eager to make a difference, Iconis earned her teaching degree in record-fast time from Hofstra University. At 20 years old, she was hired as a second grade teacher at Washington Street School in Franklin Square. Earning a little more than $11,000 a year, she couldn’t believe she was getting paid to do something she loved. Iconis later became a reading specialist and in the early 1990s, went back to school to earn her administrative certification. She put that to use for the first time in 1999, leaving Franklin Square after 23 years and arriving in Massapequa as assistant principal of East Lake Elementary School. A year later, she was named East Lake’s principal. She loved working in a school environment, so it was with some reluctance that Iconis moved to Massapequa’s central office in 2005 as the assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction. During the next eight years, her position evolved, eventually overseeing the K-12 curriculum as well as special education. In 2013, the board of education appointed her as superintendent of schools. As an assistant superintendent, Iconis spearheaded the transition from a half-day to a full-day kindergarten program and worked to add enrichment opportunities for all elementary students. One of her proudest achievements is the creation of the Eagle program for special needs children, which began with two classes at East Lake and has since expanded to the secondary level, where students learn life skills in the Career and Community Connections program. In her eight years as superintendent,

A favorite event each year for Lucille Iconis is new teacher orientation. She is seen here in August 2018 reading Mrs. Spitzer’s Garden to inspire Massapequa’s new educators.

Iconis cites the move of the sixth grade to Berner Middle School as one of her greatest accomplishments. She said that despite the controversy at the time, she believed it was the right decision for students. In the four years that have passed since the first sixth grade class entered Berner, the transition has exceeded her expectations. Other enhancements during her superintendency include the creation of the Foreign Language in the Elementary Schools (FLES) program, which includes Spanish instruction for students in grades 3-5, introduction of the research-based Advanced Placement Capstone program at the high school, launching an engineering program in partnership with Hofstra University and an increased emphasis on social and emotional learning including the adoption of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence RULER philosophy. “If the students are at the centerpiece of every one of your decisions,” she said, “you can never be wrong.” East Lake was named a National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence by the U.S. Department of Education when she was principal and Massapequa High School earned the distinction while she was superintendent. Iconis is also proud of the way the district navigated the COVID-19 pandemic and praises the administrators, teachers and staff for their commitment to children during a difficult time.

Lucille Iconis loves visiting students in the classrooms and in June 2018 she surprised the winner of the annual FLES folder contest at Unqua Elementary School. “We provided a level of instruction that was far superior to many districts,” she said, noting that full-time, in-person instruction was available to all students by late October of last year. Iconis, along with Deputy Superintendent Alan Adcock, made it a priority to improve the district’s facilities. Massapequa is nearing completion of a capital project to renovate every classroom at the middle school and the six elementary schools. Every classroom in the district has also been air conditioned and athletic facilities have been enhanced at the high school and middle school. Iconis and Adcock both started with the district in 1999, and have been in central administration together for 16 years. Fittingly, they are retiring a month apart. “I do believe that Alan and I are leaving Massapequa in a better place

than when we arrived,” Iconis said. She will miss the concerts, the graduations and moving-up ceremonies and the special events at each school like the annual tributes to veterans. One of her favorite traditions each year is reading Mrs. Spitzer’s Garden at new teacher orientation, to inspire the next generation of Massapequa educators. “I’ll miss it,” she said, noting that in retirement she would like to travel and teach some education courses at the college level. “Twenty-two years ago, I was fortunate to land in job in Massapequa. I’m very proud of our accomplishments. It’s amazing how much the district has moved forward. It’s a testament to our masterful, talented and compassionate educators, who make me so proud to be part of this wonderful profession.” -Submitted by the Massapequa School District

This is a theme puzzle with the subject stated below. Find the listed words in the grid. (They may run in any direction but always in a straight line. Some letters are used more than once.) Ring each word as you find it and when you have completed the puzzle, there will be 20 letters left over. They spell out the alternative theme of the puzzle.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). It is on brand for you to give your all. Anything less and people take notice. In one activity in particular, bringing your best attention to the situation feels like a challenge. It’s better to stop entirely and figure out the problem than to bring a distracted version of yourself. It’s not selfish to ask, “What’s in it for me?”

20 Letters Solution: WORD FIND

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Many are going for the same goal as you. Don’t be deterred! The like-minded make the journey easier. People are testing out a variety of methods, so you can see what’s working and avoid the bad fits. Besides, competition brings out the best in you. You’ll be energized by the challenges of this week.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Metaphorically, this crosswalk of life you’re trying to use doesn’t seem to be responding to the button. The sign is stuck on “don’t walk” and it’s not changing anytime soon. So, don’t wait for the signal to give you permission. Instead of going when you’re told, go when you see your break and it’s safe. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You hold many beliefs you’re not aware of. These beliefs come part and parcel with being a person born in a particular place and time. Not all of them are true. This week presents you with a new awareness. Something will rub against a belief, offering you the chance to challenge and replace it with an improvement. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Trust can be a blanket term signaling submission. You trust someone ... but trust them to do what? It is more valuable to know someone enough to predict their character; it takes time and is worth it. The nuances of relationships matter now, as there’s something in flux. The deciding moment will change everything. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Maybe it’s bad luck to believe in bad luck. This week, try striking the word “luck” from your thinking altogether. There are actions and reactions, causes and effects, light and shadows. None of it is positive, negative, only useful to a particular goal or not applicable. Think in terms of “for me” and “not for me.”

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). It’s a week to communicate yourself large. Keep friends informed about what you want and what you’re doing because they can help you. Also, tell people you don’t know. And while you’re at it, give a shoutout to all the unseen forces of nature and heaven, the mystical deities and anyone else you can think of. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). What you see is never all that is. Magic shows are built on this premise, and so is drama, branding, dating and, to some extent, your approach to the week. You’ll show the world enough to hook them into what you’re doing while somehow keeping your mystery alive. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll work with creative people who specialize in different areas from yours. Even so, do not hand over a job and walk away expecting stunning results. The magic ingredient is your vision. Your encouragement will help others reach new heights or expand their territory.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Long ago, you learned the success equation. You show up, then deliver what you agreed to in the expected time frame. These aren’t easy rules, but they are simple, and you live by them this week. Someone new will learn what you’re all about. You’ll build your credibility and later bank on it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Don’t let the tensed-out energy get to you. Your easygoing style will attract to you the exact people you need to keep things running smoothly. Some will have a different style, but don’t let anyone’s intensity deter you. Consider it instead to be a yin to your yang. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Before you act on your idea, give it a go through different filters. Pump the notion through your heart. Send it up to our higher wisdom. Float it to your mentor, team and partner ... Ideas need multiple influences; they need to be checked for soundness! Ultimately, your action will be golden and confidently executed.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

Stevie Wonder

BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

(May 13, 1950-present) “[His greatness] is almost too obvious. You could argue that he is the greatest solo artist of all time. It would be hard to come up with a better answer.” Stevie Wonder circa 1967

o say music runs deep in John Legend’s soul is an understatement. The son of a choir director and grandson of an organist, he spent his youth in and around church and choir rehearsal and started playing piano at the tender age of four. With his earliest memories steeped in being in church, he admits this foundation “...was my foundation and inspiration.” Currently touring behind his seventh studio album, Bigger Love, the Ohio native is taking an 11-piece band out on the road with the hopes of using his music to uplift concertgoers during these uncertain, pandemic-fueled times. “It sounds trite, but I really hope people feel the love that we put into [Bigger Love],” Legend said. “Obviously, people have got all kinds of major concerns: life and death concerns, unemployment, all these big issues that are affecting them. No album is going to solve that for anybody, but it can at least give them a lift, some inspiration and hopefully make them appreciate life a little bit more.” Legend’s passion for composing, singing and making a beautiful noise has found him going down plenty of musical avenues, be it as a current judge of The Voice, playing the title role in a live 2018 production of Jesus Christ Superstar or becoming the first black man and second youngest person to have won all four major American entertainment awards: Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony (EGOT). So Legend was more than willing to share with readers who his favorite keyboard-playing vocalists are.

(March 25, 1942August 16, 2018) “One artist who might be as great as Stevie is Aretha. She was an amazing pianist. Stylistically, I feel like I have a lot in common with her. I learned a lot from my grandmother, who grew up in Michigan and Ohio. She was a little older than Aretha, but not much. I feel like generationally and in their background, my grandmother and Aretha reminded me a lot of each other. My grandmother was also the daughter of a big minister. I saw a lot of connection to Aretha’s life and music. I think she was underrated as a pianist. She was a great singer, but she could really play and when she accompanied herself, it was gorgeous.”

Elton John

(March 25, 1947-present) “I love him and have gotten to perform with and pay tribute to him. He’s just a great songwriter, performer and great activist as well.” Elton John circa 2009
