TOP STORY

They’re Coming For Real Ghost Guns

BY FRANK RIZZO

S

frizzo@antonmediagroup.com

econd Amendment supporters agree that New York State has one of the strictest regimes in the nation when it comes to gun ownership and licensing.

Thus any laws regarding guns introduced by the state will become a target for those believing that there undue restrictions on constitutional rights.

These issues will be decided in the courts, which thanks to many years of Republican success of placing conservatives on the judiciary, will see friends of the Second Amendment in high places.

On Nov. 3, the Supreme Court strongly signaled that it might strike down the state’s strict conceal carry laws.

In Westbury on Oct. 28, at the “Yes We Can” Community Center in the New Cassel section, Governor Kathy Hochul signed a series of bills that will ban “ghost guns,” untraceable firearms critics charge are used by criminals to evade background checks.

According to a press release, “The Scott J. Beigel Unfinished Receiver Act, sponsored by Senator Anna M. Kaplan and Assemblymember Charles Lavine, and The Jose Webster Untraceable Firearms Act, sponsored by Senator Brad Hoylman (D/WFP-Manhattan) and Assemblymember Linda Rosenthal (D/ WF-Manhattan), create the strongest protections from these dangerous weapons in the nation. A third bill that was sponsored by Senator John Brooks and Assemblymember Steve Stern amends the definition of a disguise gun and that’ll include a weapon capable of being concealed.”

The governor made note of the case before the Supremes, titled New York State Pistol and Rifle Association (NYSPRA) vs. New York State Police.

The state has a high standard for issuing conceal carry permits, and the questions by the court conservatives, a 6-3 majority, seemed to hint at a ruling that the constitutional right to keep and bear arms “precludes states from insisting that individuals show ‘proper cause’ before being licensed to carry a firearm for self-defense,” according to Politico.

Anton Media Group reached out to the NYSPRA for comment on the latest gun control registration, but had not heard back as of press time.

The four sponsoring legislators were on hand for the bill signing, as were Scott Beigel’s parents, Michael and Linda Beigel Schulman.

The governor paid homage to them, saying, “When you realize that so many people have been affected by gun

It governor observed, “We want to has a permanent mark in your soul to continue solidifying New York State’s lose a child that you brought in reputation as having the toughest this world. And for so many, gun laws in America, because they retreat into that pain gun violence has not because what else can abated. We cannot say they do? They just we have laws in place We want to continue suffer in silence. But and we’re going to solidifying New York it takes extraordinary rest on that. We have State’s reputation as individuals to say, ‘I to keep challenging having the toughest will not be silenced ourselves to address gun laws in America. the problems as they by gunfire. It may have taken down my son and keep arising. And as —Governor other innocent children technology changes and Kathy Hochul that he tried to protect when as the criminals become they should have been in the more clever and trying to evade most secure place, their own school.’ our laws.”

You’ve been an inspiration to so many.

Giffords, the gun violence prevenAnd how you harness that pain and tion organization founded by former transformed it into action is something Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, that is a lesson for all of us on the applauded the bills, noting that ghost responsibility we have, not just to deal guns are untraceable by law enforcewith what’s happened to ourselves, but ment and can be obtained without a also how we can make sure that other background check.

“Ghost guns present a clear and present danger to national security and public safety,” said Giffords Senior Policy Advisor David Chipman, “These untraceable, DIY firearms are increasingly being used to commit violent crimes and law enforcement is left with little to no information for an investigation.

Hochul and leaders in New York showed they weren’t afraid of the gun lobby and demonstrated the leadership necessary to reduce gun violence in New York.

Other states should follow their lead.”

“Amidst an epidemic of gun violence plaguing the United States, I commend my good friend Governor Kathy Hochul for supporting and signing this bill which I sponsored in the Assembly,” said Lavine. “This new law further strengthens New York’s existing gun safety laws, already among the toughest in the country. It also significantly increases protection to our community and our children by creating much more accountability.”

Rosenthal noted, “Even those who would not be able to access a firearm via legal means can evade the laws to get their hands on all the parts necessary to make a gun on their own. Jose Webster, was a 16-year-old living in the Bronx with his mother when he was shot 15 times while he walked his girlfriend home. It was not even 9 p.m. and the walk was only seven blocks.”

The press release went on to state that in 2020, “there were 19,379 gun violence deaths in the US, the highest number recorded in more than two decades, and more than 611 mass shootings.

Children are at an increasing risk of being injured or killed because of gun violence. According to a 2019 study, gun injuries are the second-leading cause of death among children and teens and the leading cause of death among high school students.”

The pandemic created an unprecedented demand for firearms, and a Harvard Law Review article revealed that more than 80 percent of all ghost gun kit manufacturers experienced shipping delays because of the extreme demand.

The Rockefeller Institute of Government reported that between 2017-20, ghost guns seized by law enforcement agencies rose by 479 percent.

The new law defines a “ghost gun” as “any firearm, rifle, or shotgun that isn’t serialized and registered in accordance with either state or federal law.”

Friends Of The Bay Install Raingardens Near Oyster Bay Harbor

F

riends of the Bay recently installed two rain-gardens over the Oct. 16 weekend on the Western Waterfront on the south shore of Oyster Bay Harbor.

The Western Waterfront Raingardens Project was made possible by a $6000 grant from the Long Island Sound Stewardship Fund at the Long Island Community Foundation. Partners on the project are the Town of Oyster Bay, Nassau County Soil & Water Conservation District and the Theodore Roosevelt Sanctuary & Audubon Center.

More than a dozen volunteers from Friends of the Bay and the Theodore Roosevelt Sanctuary with the help of the town installed the rain-gardens, which are located in front of the 9/11 Memorial, across from Building J, home of the Ida May Project.

Raingardens are landscapes that capture and treat stormwater runoff. Rainwater travels over roads, roofs, driveways and lawns before draining into our waterways. Along the way,

it erodes and transports soils and degraded plant material, picks up trash, nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus, trace metals, oils, bacteria and pesticides. These pollutants and sediments that are carried can degrade groundwater and surface water quality and result in the loss of aquatic habitat.

Rain-gardens help by reducing the flow rate of runoff, and the soil, bacteria and plants absorb much of the pollutants before they enter the groundwater and waterways.

The best plants for rain-gardens are those that thrive in a “drought and drench” environment.

Native plants, like the ones used in these raingardens, require little or no fertilizer, are excellent food sources for pollinators, and provide habitat for birds, insects and butterflies. Once established, their deep roots increase the water-holding capacity of the soil, bind it together and prevent erosion.

Great Neck Collects 543 Pounds Of Pharmaceuticals

he Great Neck Water Pollution Control District recently hosted its most successful Shed the Meds event since the initiative was started four years ago. A steady stream of traffic drove through the contactless drive-thru site—amounting to 224 cars that collectively dropped off 543 pounds of unused or expired pharmaceuticals as well as 11 full commercial containers of medical sharps (EpiPens, needles, etc.), amounting for the biggest turnout in the event’s history. In fact, the District has now collected nearly one and a half tons of unused and unwanted pharmaceuticals since the program began in 2017. The District’s Shed the Meds event is also one of the only places where residents can safely dispose of medical sharps on Long Island, as most local police precincts, healthcare locations and other pharmaceutical take back day events do not accept these materials.

“Our Shed the Meds event is one of the most important programs we provide for our community, as it gives them a quick and simple opportunity to properly dispose of their expired and unused medications,” Great Neck Water Pollution Control District Chairman Steve Reiter, said. “It is incredible to see that even after four years of Shed the Meds, our community still comes out in record numbers every six months, proving that the people of the Great Neck Peninsula are as environmentally-conscious as any group of people on Long Island.”

The Great Neck Water Pollution Control District’s Shed the Meds event had the biggest turnout in the event’s history. (Contributed photo) The biannual event, hosted in partnership with Reach Out America, Great Neck Breast Cancer Coalition, Nassau County Police, and the Key Club at Great Neck North High School, aims at protecting local water sources and raising awareness of the dangers of flushing pharmaceuticals down the toilet.

“The Great Neck community never fails to amaze us with their enthusiasm and support for this event year in and year out,” GNWPCD Commissioner Patty Katz added. “All of the work we do is in service to

our neighbors, so it is always wonderful to see them come out in support of their environment. We are incredibly proud of our community and are looking forward to even more successful Shed the Meds events and other environmentally-focused initiatives to benefit residents for generations to come.”

Several of the area’s elected officials visited the event and showed their support for the GNWPCD, including NY State Assemblywoman Gina Sillitti, County Legislator Ellen Birnbaum and Town of North Hempstead Councilwoman Veronica Lurvey, as well as Town Council candidate Peter Fishkind.

“Protecting our environment is one of our utmost priorities at the Great Neck Water Pollution Control District,” GNWPCD Commissioner Jerry Landsberg said. “By safely disposing of their unused pharmaceuticals, members of our community are helping to keep our single-source aquifer free of these potentially harmful materials. The continued support we receive from our neighbors and elected officials for our Shed the Meds event is astounding and we are excited to see them once again in the spring.”

Seaford Pride And A Viking Victory At Homecoming

Seaford School District)

In addition to their halftime performance, cheerleaders also got the crowd into the spirit from the sidelines.

F

rom the sidewalks of Washington Avenue to the bleachers of Seaford High School, there was a strong showing of support by the community during the first homecoming celebration in two years.

The parade kicked off at noon led by the Nassau County Police Department and Seaford Fire Department. With steady crowds along the route, it passed Manor Elementary School before turning into the side streets and ending at the high school.

Marchers included board of education trustees and administrators, students and teachers from all four schools, children from youth organizations and the marching band.

This year’s grand marshals were the families of Michael Augustin, John Krzyminski and Ariel Ramirez. The 2019 Seaford High School graduates are currently serving in the United States Marine Corps and were deployed to Afghanistan to assist in the evacuation of Kabul. Family members held up pictures of the three servicemen in the parade and again when recognized during the halftime ceremony.

The senior class won the Disney park-themed banner contest with its Hollywood Studios creation.

In the varsity football game, the Seaford Vikings hosted the Clarke Rams. The Vikings entered the field by bursting through a green banner and with a Seaford fire engine spraying a green stream of water in the background. Although Clarke scored the first points of the game, Seaford quickly showed why it is an undefeated team. The 43-14 win gave the Vikings their sixth win in as many games.

Halftime festivities included a joint performance by the varsity, junior varsity and middle schools cheerleaders and solo show by the varsity squad.

The marching band performed its ‘80s rock-themed show with music by Bon Jovi, Black Sabbath and Van Halen.

The homecoming court was introduced, featuring Ava Albanese, Jared Brown, Matthew Garcia, Anthony Munro, Annarose Romanelli and Natalie Villecco. Brown and Romanelli were crowned king and queen.

Each class designed a banner for the parade, based on the Disney Parks. At halftime, the seniors were announced as the winners for their Hollywood Studios banner.

ll three area high school football teams have made the playoffs this season, but only MacArthur and Division will be play firstround matchups this weekend.

Island Trees had qualified, but was forced to forfeit its first-round matchup due to COVID-19. A member of the coaching staff and several players have tested positive.

Curran Signs Bill Creating Disabilities Advisory Council Surrounded by advocates and elected officials, Nassau County Executive Laura Curran recently signed into law bipartisan legislation to create an Advisory Council On People With Disabilities. The council, which will include members with disabilities and those representing organizations that serve or advocate for people with disabilities, will provide recommendations to the County Executive and County Legislature on how to better the lives of residents with disabilities in Nassau County.

The 15-member Council will assist in reviewing County policies, procedures, practices and programs and recommend legislation. It also will advise the County Executive and Legislature regarding funding priorities and capital projects that

address the needs of county residents.

“In Nassau County, we are committed to protecting the fundamental rights of people with disabilities, including supporting their self-sufficiency and equal participation in society. Today, we’re taking an important step to ensure that residents with disabilities have a voice in County government and a seat at the table to make their voices heard. I thank the dedicated advocates made this effort possible, and I look forward to working together on behalf of the approximately 250,000 Nassau residents with disabilities,” Curran said.

Advocates greeted the creation of the committee as a mechanism that could allow for concerns to be raised and improvements to be proposed.

“It’s a major milestone

here for Nassau County,” Gina Barbara, an advocate for people with disabilities, said.

“This advisory committee will be a voice for our community where we can share concerns in a more effective manner.”

Nadia Holubnyczyj, an advocate for people with disabilities, added, “This is an important step towards inclusivity for all residents of Nassau to live their best life possible. We must remain vigilant to ensure best practices.”

The Nassau County Office for the Physically Challenged serves as the disability rights advocacy agency for the county’s population of more than 250,000 adults and children with disabilities. This council will create a new mechanism for those with disabilities and organizations serving them to provide input.

The council, which will hold regular meetings at

times and places that its members determine, also will periodically evaluate the county’s parks and preserves and recommend ways to improve accessibility for Nassau County’s disabled residents. Members of the council will be appointed by the County Executive subject to confirmation by the Legislature. Each appointment will be to serve three years without compensation, although members can be allowed actual and necessary expenses incurred while performing their duties. Five members will be appointed upon the recommendation of the County Legislature Presiding Officer, three upon the recommendation of the Minority Leader and seven will have one or more disabilities or be representatives of organizations serving or advocating on behalf of

people with disabilities.

Those seven members will have or represent organizations on behalf of disabilities including intellectual/ developmental disabilities, physical disabilities, blindness/legal blindness, deaf or hard of hearing, mental health disability, autism or a learning disability. There will be one non-voting representative from a wide range of County offices and departments, including the Office of Mental Health, Chemical Dependency and Developmental Disabilities; Office for the Physically Challenged, Department of Social Services, Department of Parks, Department of Health, Department of Public Work and the Office of Emergency Management.

Hicksville Water District Hosts First-Ever Pharmaceutical Take Back Day Event Dozens of residents safely dispose of unused and expired medications

T

he Hicksville Water District (HWD) recently hosted its first ever Pharmaceutical Take Back Day, encouraging residents to dispose of unused and expired medications in their homes through a safe, contactless drive-thru event. The event provides the community with a safer alternative to flushing these medications down the drain, which can ultimately force them to end up in our water supply.

Altogether, dozens of residents came out to dispose of approximately 100 pounds of pharmaceuticals, allowing them to not only protect our water, but also to get these potentially harmful materials out of their homes.

“Maintaining the health and safety of our water supply is one of the Hicksville Water District’s most important jobs,” HWD Chairman Karl Schweitzer said. “By disposing of unused or expired medications, residents are doing their part in preventing Hicksville’s water from becoming contaminated while also getting rid of dangerous substances, which is particularly crucial given the fact that we will all spend more time inside as the winter approaches. We were excited to see so many people turn out to the event and we look forward to providing more of these events in the future.”

Several local elected officials showed their support in the event also.

The improper disposal of medications poses a threat to Long Island’s single-source aquifer, as it opens up the possibility of foreign contaminants entering our water supply. One of the most common forms of improper disposal of these substances is flushing them putting them on the fast track to

contaminating our water and forcing water providers to increase the amount of treatment needed in order to make water safe for human consumption. Residents take a stand against this by participating in events such as the District’s Pharmaceutical Take Back Day. —Submitted by the Hicksville Water District

Easy Steps To Bringing Houseplants Indoors For Winter

BY KAREN MUSGRAVE

A

specialsections@antonmediagroup.com

fter a season spent decorating your back porch or entryway, now is the time to bring your houseplants indoors for a winter rest.

Moving your plants inside is easy and provides you with the opportunity to update your décor and take advantage of the airy purifying qualities.

This three-bedroom, one and a half bathroom Colonial at 3 2nd St. in Greenvale sold on Oct. 25 for $707,000. It is expanded and offers almost 2,000 square feet of living space with wood floors, a generator, gas in house and a beautiful flat backyard with a waterfall pond. The huge deck with hot tub and a two-car detached garage are a plus. This home has had many updates including granite kitchen with vaulted ceiling with skylight, natural-gas cooktop and a breakfast bar. The expansive family room has a gas fireplace. The second-floor has a laundry room and a walk-in closet. The home has Andersen windows, Pella doors, an updated 200-AMP electrical service, whole-house generator and a whole-house attic fan. This home is close to all major amenities and is part of the Roslyn school district.

Location, Location, Location. This unique home at 21 Marion St. in Greenvale sold for $780,000 on Oct. 18. Upon entry it offers a living room with fireplace, a dining room, an eat-inkitchen, a half bathroom and a bedroom on the first floor. Stairs to the second floor bring you to the master bedroom, a full bathroom and an additional bedroom. Access to the basement is through the garage which brings you to the laundry, utilities and possibility for a great recreational space. The home has gorgeous hardwood floors and woodwork throughout the first and second floors. The home has a two-car attached garage and a lane driveway. The gardens are beautiful, including a patio and the yard is fenced. The home is gas heated. This home is a stone’s throw to exceptional shopping, dining, highways and the railroad station. It is located in the North Shore school district. Taxes with Basic Star are $6,802.67.

Here are five easy steps for success: STEP 1:

Decide where your houseplant will live indoors and clean the windows thoroughly for optimum lighting.

If you do not have adequate light, invest in a grow light.

STEP 2: Before you bring it inside, move your plant to an area outdoors such as a garage or under a tree, that is less sunny for about 1 week. This gives it time to acclimate to the lower light conditions it will encounter indoors.

STEP 3: One week before you bring your plant indoors spray it with insecticidal soap. Spray the top and bottom of each leaf.

STEP 4: The day before you bring the plant inside, drench the soil with insecticidal soap again to kill any bugs that may be Yucca

living in the soil. Spray the leaves again as well.

STEP 5: Leave the plant outside for a few hours to dry, then bring it indoors to its new home for the winter.

Indoor Winter Plant Care: • Water only when the soil is dry to the touch about an inch down into the soil.

• Always remove water from the saucer about 15 minutes after watering.

• Cut back any dead or yellowing leaves and stems.

• No need to fertilize winter houseplants.

• Check for insects and treat as needed.

Bringing your houseplants and tropical plants indoors for the winter months allows you to enjoy your plants every day of the year.

Give it a try and expand your plant family to every room of your home.

It’s A Family Affair With Jackie And The Rippers

BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

I

dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

n the 1971 Sly and the Family Stone hit “Family Affair,” there’s a couple of lyrics that go, “You see, it’s in the blood/Blood’s thicker than mud” and in the case of Jackie and the Rippers (J&TR), it’s a trueism given that the core of the group come from the same clan. Band namesake and lead singer Jackie Vadala is the niece of the septet’s drumming/ singing married couple, Charlie and Chris Steinert. And while the band came together earlier this year, the seven-piece has played four gigs with the goal of raising money for those in need. Most recently, J&TR played a gig at the Levittown Hall arranged by the local Knights of Columbus chapter to benefit people with Down syndrome. And while playing music with people you like is important to Charlie Steinert, his group’s altruism is what really drives him and his musical compatriots.

“We like to do charity events and help anybody that’s in need,” Steinert said. “Our tagline is we are the band that cares. We’re looking to do charity work because all of us are very community minded. It’s important for us to give back.”

The Steinerts live in a Massapequa home outfitted with a recording studio. With Vadala hailing from nearby Seaford, the three saw each other regularly at family gatherings, where it was not unusual for guests to grab a mic and start harmonizing together, whether it was inside during the holidays or outside in the backyard while burgers were frying on the grill.

The joy they got from singing together planted the seeds for J&TR and after a few false starts, the trio got the right combination of players together.

“We had some other members and it didn’t work out,” Vadala said. “That happens when you’re in a band—a little band drama. But there’s no drama any more. We actually went on Craig’s List and put out some ads, players came down, auditioned and we came together.”

Rounding out J&TR are Massapequa vocalist Mike Accurso, guitarists Don Melchione (Stewart Manor) and John Pentecost (Flushing), keyboardist Rob Rother (New Hyde Park), saxophone/ harmonica player Howie Lampert (Plainview) and bass-playing vocalist Mark Nygren (Northport). The musical experience ranges from Vadala

Jackie and the Rippers playing a Knights of Columbus Down syndrome benefit at Levittown Hall (Photos courtesy of Network News) playing in her first band to Pentecost playing in a number of tribute bands including Break on Through and Rubber Soul. Charlie Steinert’s own experiences date back to managing local metal bands Takashi and Ninja along with a stint running the Rio Theater, Valley Stream’s storied 1,200-seat venue that saw the likes of Metallica, Anthrax and John Stamos grace its stage. Ironically, the band Jackie and the Rippers was inspired

by Stamos’ Full House character Jesse Katsopolis, who played in a fictional group of the same name. For Steinert, this latest musical chapter is just more old hat for him.

“I’m no stranger to producing

concerts and working with bands,” he said. “I’ve worked with everyone from Pee-Wee Herman to Jay Black and the Americans. The difference with this band is that everybody gets along. We all like each other and are friends. We go to clubs together and watch other bands to learn the do’s and the don’ts.

This band is a good fit. It took a long time to get us to where we are.”

And while Vadala is the baby of the band, in both age and stage experience, she’s been soaking up all the music the Steinerts have been throwing at her. Folks coming to check out J&TR can expect to hear everything from Elle King’s “Ex’s & Oh’s” and Amy Winehouse’s “Valerie” to more

vintage material by The Beatles (“All My Lovin’”), Neil Diamond (“Sweet Caroline”) and Janis Joplin (“Piece of My Heart”). Folks looking for a little country twang also won’t be disappointed as tunes by Darius Rucker (“Wagon Wheel”), Chris Stapleton (“Tennessee Whiskey”) and the Zac Brown Band (“Chicken Fried”) have been known to pop up on set lists.

But for Vadala, being able to sing with her loved ones and indulge in her passion is the real payoff of being in J&TR. “I fell in love with this because of my family,” she said. “It’s a really great excuse for me to get together with them once a week. Being part of the band has brought us closer and I couldn’t be happier about that. It’s a blessing.

We get to play music together, sound great and spend time together. I think it’s a really unique thing we have.

And like Charlie said, we are a family band because the core members of the band in the beginning were me, Charlie and Chris. Now we’re lucky enough to have met some great people that are also part of the band and I think that’s a magical thing. It’s a rare thing we have together. I couldn’t be more excited.”

Local Residents Earn Professional Engineer Licenses

&B Engineers and Architects, a leading engineering and consulting organization specializing in wastewater, water supply, construction management, and civil and environmental engineering headquartered in Woodbury has announced that three employees have earned their Professional Engineer (P.E.) licenses. Achieving this prestigious professional milestone are Tim Raab, P.E. of Mineola, Frank Merklin, P.E. of Massapequa and PJ Connell, P.E. of Floral Park.

Professional Engineer licensure is the engineering industry’s highest standard of competence, representing a symbol of achievement and an assurance of quality. To earn a P.E. license, an individual must complete a four-year college degree, work under a Professional Engineer for at least four years, pass two intensive competency exams and receive a license from the New York State licensure board. Only licensed engineers may prepare, sign, seal and submit engineering plans with

drawings to a public authority for approval or seal engineering work for public and private clients. P.E. licensure also means that engineers bear the responsibility for their work as well as for the lives affected by that work while holding themselves to high ethical standards of practice.

D&B Engineers and Architects President Steven A. Fangmann commented, “These fine engineers have been recognized for their commitment to the engineering profession. We are extremely proud to have all of them as part of the D&B team. Their achievements reflect our company’s focus on expertise being the key to total client satisfaction and the highest standards of work in the engineering field.”

Mineola High School Drama Club Presents Rumors The Mineola High School Drama Club announces the opening of Neil Simon’s hysterical farce, Rumors.

The play takes place at a tastefully appointed townhouse, where things at an anniversary party for the Deputy Mayor of New York are not going as planned.

Rumors ran for 535 performances on Broadway before coming to the theatre at Mineola High School for a wild ride that will have audiences rolling in the aisles.

“I selected Rumors for this year’s play because we have a great group of talented actors who I knew could handle the demands of a farce,” Director Matt DeLuca said.

“But, perhaps even more importantly, I think this is just what the world needs right now. With all the challenges and stress we all are dealing with these days, I wanted

to offer audiences the opportunity to sit in a room together and just laugh. It’s been too long since we’ve had the opportunity to do that. This show is just what the doctor ordered.”

The cast includes Julia O’Connor, Joseph Parrino, Isabella Galán, Jake Chesna, Matthew Bischoff, Bridget Cunningham, James Keesee, Vanessa Hartman, Grace Faley and Jade Conway.

Rumors will play Nov. 19 at 7:30 p.m. and Nov. 20 at 2 p.m. and again at 7:30 p.m. at Mineola High School. The show is recommended for ages 13 and older, please note advisory for some language.

You can purchase tickets online at www.mineolahs.booktix.com.

Seating is automatically socially distanced by party.

Our speaker will describe the aftermath and long-term consequences of the treaty.

Town Board Honors Massapequa Park Couple For Lifesaving Actions Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and the Town Board honored Massapequa Park resident Antonina Barry and her boyfriend Daniel Shea for their lifesaving actions to prevent a deadly house fire. While setting up for a backyard graduation party, they noticed their neighbors’ house was on fire and raced next door to alert them. Thanks to the couple’s quick response, their neighbors were able to safely evacuate before a backyard propane tank exploded and sent a fireball into the home. The blaze it caused was so enormous that it required firefighters from more than 10 departments across Long Island. Presenting them with official Town citations, Supervisor Saladino publicly commended and thanked Barry and Shea for demonstrating an ability to act courageously when fellow citizens are in need.

Carle Place Teams Up For Unity Day The Carle Place School District joined together to celebrate Unity Day to promote a unified school community against bullying on Oct. 20.

This event is part of National Bullying Prevention Month, where schools and communities across the country join together and wear orange to show their support for students who have been bullied and spread the message of tolerance, acceptance and kindness.

At the Middle/High School, members of the middle school Builders Club and

the high school Unity Club, along with their advisers Tara Tully and Jeananne Sullivan respectively, teamed up to encourage students to perform “random acts of kindness” throughout the day with “kindness cards.” The clubs greeted students in the morning to sign a school pledge promising to promote kindness and stand up to bullying.

Rushmore Avenue Elementary School sixth grade students also celebrated Unity Day in their advisory class. They created graphic T-shirts

to represent aspects of their personalities that make them unique and then shared them with their peers.

Afterward, they created a puzzle piece to symbolize that we are all interconnected and a vital part of what makes our community so special. Cherry Lane Elementary School students also wore orange and participated in several activities that spread the message on kindness.

Children’s Home Historical Marker Receives Dedication

BY ANTHONY MURRAY

I

amurray@antonmediagroup.com

t was the first Mineola Historical Society marker to be placed in the village—with more to come in the coming years—members of the village, the historical society and Family & Children’s Association (FCA) came together last week to hold a dedication ceremony.

On a cold damp day in late October, a small group of people watched the marker honoring the FCA Children’s Home be installed on the brick chimney wall of the Little League snack bar building on Willis Avenue at the Mineola Athletic Association Baseball fields.

“This is the first Mineola Historical marker to be put in place,” Vice President of the Mineola Historical Society Peter Burnside said. “The dedication is for the first of its kind Children’s Home on Long Island and was a big improvement over the previously state-run facilities, which were a little better than work houses.

When we think of the place that Oliver Twist or Orphan Annie lived in, we can see that a privately run facility with strong supervision by caring benefactors was a big improvement for the children. Nationally we have to thank the likes of Louisa Lee Schyler— the great granddaughter of Alexander Hamilton—and other notable ladies at the time who badgered Congress to allow private institutions to build and operate compassionate homes for unwanted children. The grounds were open to neighborhood children to play, exercise and mingle with the residents of the home.”

Burnside added that The Children’s Home in Mineola was an ideal place for these orphans and abandoned children. In the mid 1800s, Hempstead resident Kate Riddell secured the plot of land and supervised the day-to-day operations of the facilities. Doctor Charles Finn ran a clinic to attend to the welfare of the children on the property. Former trustees Benjamin Hicks and George W. Bergen were local gentry who were also heavily involved with the day-to-day activities.

The location of The Children’s Home was the original location of where FCA once stood where the three-story Victorian home housed 64 orphans. This land was given to the Village of Mineola in 1950 under the circumstance that the premises should only be used for the establishment of a

children’s park, playground, recreational center, and places for housing of children’s organizations such as Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Police Boys clubs. The FCA celebrated is 135th anniversary two years ago in 2019.

FCA is a nonprofit agency helping more than 30,000 Long Islanders each year and has worked to protect and strengthen vulnerable children, seniors, families and communities on the Island. FCA is currently located in its new headquarters at 377 Oak St. in

Garden City.

“Former president of the Mineola Historical Society Neil Young had a vision of a historical marker trail in Mineola, but passed away before he could see his dream fulfilled, so we have picked up the torch and plan to continue with the mission,” Burnside added. “We have about 12 more on the list and some of them such as, the ‘Opera House’, ‘Mineola Theater,’ ‘Nassau Hospital’ and ‘St. Paul’s Chapel’ are already in the works.

Others include the ‘Old Library’ and ‘Long Island Motor Parkway’ (aka Vanderbilt”s Motorway) are in the not-too-distant future. It takes time and money to do this and each bronze marker costs almost $400. We are always happy to receive donations to the cause.”

Deputy Mayor Paul Pereira, who was in attendance at the dedication ceremony, praised the historical society and FCA’s efforts in promoting local history and noted how the donation of land in 1950 from the board of the Children’s Home to the village has impacted multiple generations of children in the community.

If you would like to help the historical society, donations can be made out to Mineola Historical Society, and be mailed to P.O. Box 423, Mineola NY 11501.

“The dedication ceremony went well,” Burnside said. “Unfortunately, we had hoped to advertise this at the street fair, but that was a washout, so not many people from the local community showed up.”

Town Board Approves $156.8M Budget

BY CAROLINE RYAN

cryan@antonmediagroup.com

A

fter a series of public meetings and work sessions, the Town of North Hempstead (TONH) board unanimously voted to approve the 2022 budget during a special meeting held remotely on Oct. 28.

“This year’s budget continues the fiscally conservative practices of this administration while continuing to deliver essential services to our residents,” Supervisor Judi Bosworth said. “The $156.8 million budget stays within New York State’s tax cap. It includes $88.5 million for the general fund, $40.1 million for the Town Outside Village Fund (TOV) and $28 million in our town operated special districts. The general fund tax levy increased by 2.9 percent, which is an average of $9.20 per household. The Town Outside Village Fund increased by 2.3 percent, so homeowners in the unincorporated areas of the town will see an average increase of $19.21 per household.”

Bosworth, who is retiring from her role as supervisor, stated in a press release that she has “always put an emphasis on transparency, openness and integrity in government.” The Supervisor had previously explained during

the Oct. 21 meeting that it was the town’s responsibility to be both “cautious and sensible,” in their approach to the 2022 budget, while also ensuring that they keep taxes low for their residents.

“As I’ve mentioned so often throughout this project, our fiscal operations have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and I applaud my administration’s ability to adapt under the current circumstances as we thoughtfully work to balance the need for budgetary reductions, while continuing to provide essential services

for our residents,” Bosworth said in a previous meeting.

to prioritize the exemplary services such as Project Independence, their

state-of-the-art parks and facilities such as the Yes We Can Community Center to “ensure that residents have the best experience possible at town facilities.” The budget also focuses on the town’s roads and infrastructure.

Bosworth also highlighted the town’s continued AAA bond rating from Moody’s Investors Service.

“Moody’s Investors Service has now affirmed the town’s AAA bond rating on 11 consecutive occasions,” Bosworth said. “This rating is the highest rating a municipality can obtain. In its credit

opinion, Moody’s acknowledged that the stable outlook reflects the town’s conservative fiscal management practices, which will support continued healthy operating performance and maintain a strong financial position. This year’s budget is a product of our administration’s planning efforts, and it takes into account analysis, suggestions and reactions by the public.”

Bosworth thanked the councilmembers and staff members for their “hard work and commitment to the town and its residents.”

The board then voted to adopt the annual budgets for the TONH General Fund, the Town Outside Village Fund, the special districts, as well as the annual assessment roll of the Port Washington Water Pollution Control District all for the fiscal year beginning Jan. 1, 2022.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR WARM MEMORIES

too share that passion. My childhood, goes back to the war years, that’s WWII and being given a nickel, going to Fred Laudin’s candy store and gazing the sliding glass enclosed showcase, of all the candies plus, and the difficulty of how to spend that

nickel. But I managed! At that time, everything was a penny and somethings were two for a penny. Of course, they had the additional display, of the more expensive candies like Hershey bars, Bonomo’s Turkish Taffee, Almond Joy and of course Milky Ways, etc.

etc. But these were all a nickel and way out of range.

Just thought I’d share some thoughts with you, and extend pleasant greetings to Eileen and Ronnie, wishing them continued passion and success. We sure need them.

Editor’s note: This letter is in response to the feature Sweeter With Time that ran on Oct. 27 about Bobb Howard’s General Store.

They started arriving in the mail a few weeks ago.

At first, just one or two in a week. Then it was a few in a single day. One day, we got four of them.

Although it is getting closer and closer to Election Day, I’m not talking about those slick, glossy, giant cardboard mailings from our local politicians.

It’s amazing how every one of those people will lower my taxes once they get into office, isn’t it?

Don’t worry; this isn’t a political rant.

I’m talking about the gift catalogues that sell everything from sweatshirts to throw pillows to Nativity scenes with tiny dog statues representing Mary, Joseph and the baby Jesus. Before there was Amazon, this was how people bought gifts without ever leaving the house.

Of course, if you ever bought one gift from these mail-order companies, even if it was 30 years ago, you are still on their mailing list. You’ve probably been getting catalogues ever since. That mailing list has been sold hundreds of times since then, so you get them from everyone else, too.

We got catalogues from companies called “Signals” and “The Feel Good Store.” There is one from “Bits and Pieces” and another called “The Vermont Country Store.” Of course, we still get a “Harriet Carter” catalogue three or four times a year. I never understood why they put a “This is your last catalogue unless you order…” sticker on it, though. We still get them, even though we hadn’t ordered from them since 1995 when the kids were little and we ordered glow sticks.

Squid Game And Gambling Addiction

BY ANTON MEDIA GROUP

specialsections@antonmediagroup.com

S

quid Game is now Netflix’s most popular show ever by a large margin. It’s an entertaining watch with some thought-provoking concepts spanning an array of topics, one of which is gambling addiction.

The premise of the show is that hundreds of debt-stricken people find themselves with an opportunity to be free from those financial shackles once and for all.

The catch?

They have to play a series of children’s games and if they don’t follow instructions they are promptly executed. For each person’s life, more money enters the jackpot.

After the first game, people are obviously appalled and scared of what’s to come.

But one man remembers the rules they signed before coming that had a way out. This got the players back to the safety of their old lives.

But, this also meant coming back to lives that were just as bleak if not bleaker than what they had just escaped because now they had an even smaller chance of ever being debt-free, dealing with all of the hardships that come with that and having little to no money at any given moment.

More than 90 percent of the players found themselves choosing to go back to the games knowing full well

what they were signing up for this time. All of them ready to compete for a chance to win the jackpot, at the cost of everyone around them.

The show’s protagonist, Seong Gi-hun, is like the other people that received the mysterious invitation; he is up to his neck in debt owing almost $3.5 million. But unlike the others, he finds himself in this predicament due to his gambling addiction that you can see firsthand running rampant in the pilot episode.

He goes as far as stealing his mother’s credit card to go off-track betting. And what does he do next?

He has a public outburst while placing his bets after another bettor asked him to hurry up.

He didn’t stop there, though. Gi-hun then goes to seek more money from his ex-lover who is now happily with another man. A man whom Gi-hun’s daughter is far happier to see than her father. It all feels like a preview into what could have perhaps been his own life if he had taken a different path at some point along the way.

A wide variety of crimes are committed as a result of gambling addiction; not just ‘white collar’ crimes such as theft and fraud, but also crimes that occur in public spaces such as street robbery. There is significant evidence of domestic abuse and child neglect linked to problem and pathological gambling.

A study of Gamblers Anonymous members found that 57 percent had stolen to finance their gambling with a combined financial impact of theft equaling $30 million.

Compulsive gamblers are arrested seven times more than non-gamblers.

Stealing, Child Neglect and Other Crime

Broken relationships

“He goes as far as stealing his mother’s credit card...”

80 to 90 percent of individuals who attend Gamblers Anonymous report engaging in illegal acts to get money for gambling.

“All of them ready to compete for a chance at the jackpot, at the cost of everyone around them” The National Gambling Impact Study estimated the lifetime divorce rates for problem and pathological

Irritability “He has a public outburst while placing his bets after another bettor asked him to hurry up.“ There is a strong connection between mood disorders and gambling addiction. It is complex and the two can feed off one another, causing each to become more problematic.

Irritability is common during the withdrawal period.

gamblers were 39.5 percent and 53.5 percent respectively; the same rate for non-gamblers was 18.2 percent.

If a gambling addict with children finds themself in a divorce, the impacts of their addiction can make custody options dwindle.

Massive debt “3.5 million” As many as 23 million Americans go into debt because of gambling and the average loss is estimated to be around $47,000.

However, not everyone goes into debt. The issue behind chronic gambling is not a financial one, it’s due to a change in the brain. It’s an illness and a disorder.

Willing to risk it all on the small chance you can make up for the bad bets of yesterdays “Over 90 percent of the players found themselves choosing to go back knowing full well what they were signing up for...”

When you’ve just lost this month’s mortgage payment, it may feel like the only way to get it back in time is to do the same thing that landed you here: gamble. So you take out a loan.

Rinse and repeat and next thing you know you’re in the hole six figures deep, thinking it may not be so bad if it were feet underground instead.

That’s a potential two million people in this world today.

Medication Side Effects And Your Liver

T

he effects of medications on the liver are a constant concern for both patients and health care providers. No one wants to take or prescribe something that could potentially do harm. Almost all medications have a warning associated with them that tell the patient to inform the doctor if they have any liver disease. A careful read of most medication package inserts will list liver test abnormalities as a possible side effect. What then is a practical approach to medications and the liver?

First and foremost, the vast majority of medications do not cause liver issues and are safe. Second, all medications, over the counter products and herbal products should only be taken when absolutely needed. Third, it is important for prescribing doctors to be aware of all medications and over-the-counter products patients are taking to ensure appropriate consideration is given to potential drug-drug interactions.

Fourth, patients must be aware of drug interactions when they take multiple over-the-counter and herbal medications without a provider’s supervision.

The last major class of ingested agents is herbal products or vitamins, minerals, etc. While the vast majority of these are safe, many can still cause liver test abnormalities and even significant liver injury in those with and without known liver disease. Technically, these products are classified as foods, not medications, so they are not subjected to the same standard of safety testing required of prescription medications.

The same rules of thumb should apply for these products. Take them only as needed, avoid taking multiple products as these products may interfere or enhance absorption of prescribed medications and make sure to read the labels carefully so as not to take any known liver toxic agents.

Being new to her job, she missed critical details about this project.

Since 2001, the total direct cost for MTA East Side Access (ESA) to Grand Central Terminal has grown from $3.5 billion to $11.2 billion today. This does not include $4 billion more for indirect costs known as “readiness projects” carried off line from the official project budget. These are the $2.6 billion Main Line Third Track, $450 million Jamaica Capacity, $387 million Ronkonkoma Double Track, $120 million Ronkonkoma Yard Expansion, $44 million Great Neck Pocket Track, just to name a few that support direct implementation for ESA. The final cost will be determined by pending and future contract change orders due to unforeseen site conditions or last minute change in scope, completion of inspection and acceptance for all work to insure it conforms to contract specifications, receipt of maintenance manuals for all project components, release of retainage and final payment to more than 30 contractors.

Let’s Put Congestion Pricing On Hold The past year and a half has been tough on our country and its millions of residents. We have gone through confinement, illness, and all the other evils that flow from a national health disaster. We are just experiencing a recovery from the pain we have endured and are just anxious to resume a normal life with no potholes along the way.

But somehow government at some level finds a way to bother us and I am specifically referring to a state program called congestion pricing.

Congestion pricing was created by the state legislature two years ago. Under this plan any truck or automobile entering the area below 60th Street will pay a toll of some amount yet to be determined. The money from this program will be used to support improvements to the bus, subway and commuter system.

It is a project that exists in London, Stockholm and Singapore and has helped to dramatically reduce traffic in and out of those cities. It is said to have raised large amounts of money for mass transit and has kept motorists out of the center for those

It sounds like motherhood and apple pie and no one should be against it, but I have a serious question as to why there is now a rush to get it started when the economy of our downstate region is still suffering badly from the fallout of COVID-19.

If you drive into New York City during rush hour, you will no doubt get stuck in some serious traffic. By the early evening and on weekends, the city is still a ghost town. There are massive numbers of empty stores and the skeletons of many once famous restaurants. Sadly, the city has yet to have recovered from the recent pandemic.

Charging motorists and trucks amounts ranging from $20 to as high as $40 is not the way to get the city fully up and running in the next few years. The state government is flush with federal dollars and is expected to get more money when the bipartisan infrastructure bill passes the Congress. The transit system needs big dollars but it is the wrong time to punish drivers who venture into the toll zone.

COVID-19 has forced thousands of previous commuters to use cars as their alternate means of travel and any person who works in the zone will get punished on a daily basis.

It will also hit our local companies who must make multiple trips to the city. I am all for progress, but congestion pricing should be put on hold for now.

Paper Straws And Bags As humans, we always desire that which we can no longer have. Take, for example, the ubiquitous plastic shopping bag that was once offered at supermarkets and retail stores nationwide. These bags were often found floating freely, where they began to turn up in waterways, trees and along the side of roadways and streets everywhere. Aside from the fact that nobody had figured out a way to make these bags “biodegradable” without additional expense, they became unsightly and a general nuisance to wildlife. Suffolk County banned the use of plastic bags by retailers, which was eventually followed by our own Nassau County. Soon, retailers and supermarkets began to offer brown paper bags, sometimes at a fee of either a nickel or a dime per bag.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

As a child, I remember when Mom and Dad did their weekly food shopping at Grand Union. When they returned, my sister and I helped them to unpackage the heavy-duty paper bags that held our groceries. The packages were neatly stacked inside,

all complained about how “awful” and inconvenient those bags felt.

As time went on, we found that we could repurpose those plastic bags for dirty-clothes bags while traveling, smaller wastepaper basket liners, liners for soft-sided coolers and even Patty dog waste bags. Retailers also began Servidio to offer reusable bags with sides that were upright and a bit sturdier than their flimsy plastic counterparts.

However, many of us forget these and the sides of the bag held our reusable bags until we roll up to goods upright without falling over on the register. Personally, I have been themselves. At the end of the chore, forbidden from bringing another one Mom or Dad neatly folded the bags into the house because I just don’t that were later used in the kitchen use them.

It seems that retailers and which is a funny statement since supermarket giants have grown many are found floating within a wiser, for over the past two weeks, tree’s limbs.

Paper bags have been reintroduced to consumers as their plastic counterparts have steadily been getting phased out. on the back seat and we pray to the grocery gods that they don’t fall over on the drive home.

The push to reduce our dependence on plastic has extended into the coffee industry, namely Starbucks. A few weeks ago, I noticed that the larger straws that fit the Venti sized cups were made of a semi-coated paper. Now, let’s be clear. I remember paper straws as a child.

Before my drink was finished, the straw had deteriorated and became a curled ribbon at the bottom of my disposable cup. I disliked the way they stuck to my parched upper lip, I disliked the texture and their feel in my mouth, and I disliked not being able to finish a drink without uncapping the lid and drinking from the cup. Often, Dad jammed on his brakes as I was drinking. I believe my sister and I may have been the reason Dad changed from getting cloth interior seats in his vehicles to vinyl or whatever fake leather was out at the time.

Upon a recent visit to the

Hicksville Starbucks, I brought those paper straws back to the car with our drinks. Hubby disliked the straws immediately, saying the opening had clearly become much smaller. He also did not care for the feeling of paper on his lips, but he also did not care for the “sippy cup”styled lid. He has since adopted the practice of using the smaller Starbucks straws in his Venti drinks, which are still plastic at the time of this writing.

I placed that paper straw on my lips and shuddered in memory.

I used the straw until my drink was finished, but the bottom had become waterlogged and was almost too soft to sip through. I managed, but desired the convenience of the plastic, which never deteriorated.

This is precisely the reason why Starbucks made the change. Landfills are overloaded with unrecyclable plastics that take years to decompose and straws are just a part of that problem. Bags are another. They are also a threat to wildlife, especially marine life.

In my opinion, it would make more sense for manufacturers to find a way to use biodegradable plastic options. Sonic employs bamboo straws for their drinks, which are sustainable and biodegradable. Hint: Don’t ever attempt to place one in a dishwasher. Trust me on this.

Paper bags and straws are better for the environment, but they are also better for us. Paper is nontoxic, while plastic is considered a carcinogenic. And while it is another thing to which we must grow re-accustomed, it will also help to solve the great garbage issue. Now, if only they could create a paper straw that didn’t feel quite so weird in the mouth.

During halftime, the homecoming court was celebrated, with twins Steven Mirabile and Emily Mirabile being named homecoming king and queen. The crowd was also treated to performances by the Romanettes, marching band, step team, Twirlers and cheerleaders. Many of the student groups were dressed to honor first responders and the U.S. Army.

Sewanhaka Pride Celebrated At Homecoming It was a day of celebration at Sewanhaka High School on Oct. 16 as students, staff and visiting community members celebrated homecoming.

To kick off the day, community members gathered at the newly-renamed “Lenny’s Snack Shack,” which was dedicated in memory of Lenny Caputo, a community staple in the Elmont community who tragically passed away earlier this year. Senator Anna M. Kaplan presented the Caputo family with a citation and Sewanhaka High School Principal Nichole Allen spoke about the profound impact Caputo made on the students, staff and herself.

“As a new principal, he was there to help me succeed on day one,” Allen said. “We have truly lost an Elmont giant, and we know that he’s here today to cheer us on during homecoming, which he himself told me he was looking so much forward to earlier this year.”

Once the ribbon was cut for the renamed snack shack, students and staff marched with decorated floats that paid tribute to first responders and all essential personnel who went above and beyond during the COVID-19

Barbara Lowe Keates of Huntington passed away peacefully at the Hospice House in East Northport on Tuesday morning, October 26, 2021. She was born in Philadelphia in 1927, the only child of Melville and Katharine Lowe.

Barbara grew up in Port Washington, and was valedictorian for the Port Washington High School class of 1946.

She graduated from Bradford Junior College in 1948. She then attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and joined the Pi Beta Phi sorority, graduating with a degree in journalism in 1950.

Upon graduation, Barbara moved back to New York and began her career in journalism at Mademoiselle magazine in Manhattan.

She reconnected with her future husband, Thomas A. Keates, who also grew up in Port Washington. They raised two children in Huntington and were happily married for 44 years, until Tom died in 1995.

Barbara is survived by her daughters, Kathy Schaeffer (Bernie) and Lisa Weinschenk (Al); her three granddaughters, Katie, Christie (Charlie), and Carly; and her two great-grandchildren, Elizabeth and Xavier.

Barbara cared deeply about helping others, particularly people in need. She grew up during the Great Depression and had a special place in her heart for those who struggle with hunger.

Barbara served for many years as a Girl Scout troop leader, as a weekly “wing” at Huntington Hospital, as an aide to the Hunger and Outreach Committee of St. John’s Church, and as a monthly volunteer at the Huntington Community Food Council.

Barbara supported many charities over the years. Two of her favorites were Long Island Cares and Habitat for Humanity.

Please consider donating to one of these charities in her honor.

Christine Thornton Grieco, of Glen Cove, died on October 18, 2021, at the age of 70.

She died peacefully at home after a long battle with chronic lung disease.

Christine was born in Brooklyn and grew up in Manhasset, NY, while spending summers at Breezy Point. She attended the Schools of St. Mary in Manhasset and graduated from St. Mary’s High School in 1969. In 1973, she received a B.A. in political science and English from Marymount College in Tarrytown, NY. After graduation, for many years, Christine lived and worked in Manhattan; Account Executive at CBS Television Network, Director of Programming at International Management Group (IMG), and Vice President of Marketing at RMJ Securities.

At the age of 40, Christine decided to return to academia and received a J.D. degree from Hofstra University Law School in 1995.

Armed with a legal degree and many years of business experience, Christine married and moved to Glen Cove, and spent her remaining years working as a volunteer in various organizations. She was a member of the Board of Directors, and eventually became Vice Chairman, of the Education and Assistance Corporation (EAC), a not-for profit organization serving Long Island and the Metropolitan area with over thirty charitable programs, such as Meals on

227803 M

Wheels. Christine served as a Court Appointed Special Advocate in Nassau Family Court for children in foster care.

Additionally, she was an active member and fund raiser for myriad organizations such as the Family of Malta, Americares, and Ireland’s Children. Finally, Christine was a volunteer at St. Christopher-Ottilie Family Service Agency, in Sea Cliff, NY. In 2008, she was honored as the Volunteer of the Year at a fundraiser held at the Nassau Country Club. Her acceptance speech ended with the perfect description of her own life: my parents taught by example and made sure their children realized the importance of “giving back”.

Christine is survived by her husband, Dr. Michael Grieco; her stepchildren, Michael and Kristin Grieco; her nephews, Thomas Thornton lll, Ryan Thornton, Robert Thornton Jr. and Christopher Thornton; her sisters-in-law, Julia Thornton Hess and Mary Thornton. She is also survived by many grandnephews and a grandniece. Christine was predeceased by her parents, Thomas and Catherine Thornton and her brothers, Thomas Thornton, Jr. and Robert Thornton.

Those who wish to donate to a scholarship in Christine’s name, please contact Community Scholarship Fund, P.O. Box 453, Glen Cove, NY.

LEGAL NOTICES posed project is the property commonly known as an approximate fifty (50) acres of real property, known as Peninsula Golf Course, 50 Nassau Road, Massapequa, New York, and designated as Section 66, Block 057, Lot 125 and Section 66, Block 054, Lot 048 on the Land and Tax Map of the County of Nassau (“subject property”). The public use, benefit or purpose to be served by the acquisition for continuing use as a golf course, will ensure that the public continues to enjoy park uses within the Town of Oyster Bay. Specifically, the acquisition will enhance the Town’s inventory for recreational amenities available to its residents, while also ensuring the preservation of the subject parcel as an important open space resource in a densely developed suburban area.

The reasons for the selection of the subject location are as follows: (1) the acquisition of the subject property by the Town for continuing use as a golf course would serve a dual public purpose and benefit by providing a recreational asset for Town residents while also preserving open space and community character; (2) integrating the subject parcel into the Town’s inventory of recreational assets and, particularly, by providing a golf facility located on the south shore of the Town that will serve as a geographic and programmatic complement to the Town’s existing golf course in Woodbury, located on the north shore of the Town; (3) identification of improvement to the subject property’s existing use as a golf course that would best serve the Town’s residents, in a manner similar to what has been achieved at the Town’s exiting golf course in Woodbury, and consistent with the subject property’s current deed restrictions governing use of the subject property as a golf course; (4) benefit to the community character by ensuring that the subject property remains a vital open space resource for not only the Peninsula neighborhood but the surrounding neighborhoods located on the south shore of the Town; (5) acquisition will help to minimize potential impacts due to coastal flooding by preventing new residential development in the one-hundred (100) year floodplain area that extends onto the subject property while also retaining this area for the important function of floodwater storage; and (6) while the subject property is governed by a restrictive deed covenant requiring it to be retained perpetually as a golf course, the terms of this covenant expressly allows for its potential revocation, and authority governing enforcement or relaxation or rescission of this covenant lies with Nassau County, lending to an air of uncertainty to the future of the subject parcel, given the recent trend in proposals for residential development of

Ring each word as you find it and when you have completed the puzzle, there will be 15 letters left over. They spell out the alternative theme of the puzzle.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). People try to impart what they know, but knowledge cannot be received. Information can, and what a gift it is! Knowledge, on the other hand, must be grown in the recipient as information is used, tested and practiced. This week, you act. You do not so much gain knowledge as become it -- intelligence embodied.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your confidence doesn’t come from an expectation that you’ll be liked; it comes from not caring either way. The week shows a self-directed side of you. You do what you want to serve the purposes of your choosing, fulfilled according to your own criteria. Outside opinions will mean very little, if anything, to you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You hear what people say, but more importantly, you know what they mean, what’s implied and the significance of their focus.

They’ll repeat themselves later in some form or another, but taking it all in the first time around will give you a definite advantage. It will save you time, and you’ll stand out as astute.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You stand in a wilderness of true and false assumptions. You’ll question what you were taught. It got you this far, but you must discover things for yourself to go the distance. As you dare to put beliefs to the test, the falsehoods will become obvious, and the truth will guide you to the next place.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You have yet to accomplish what you set out to do.

If you focus on the goal, you’ll see it. How close it actually is matters less than how vividly you can make it out. You bridge distances by understanding those far-away things with as much clarity as possible. The understanding moves you forward.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You adhere to a set of rules both stated and unstated. You’ll witness rule-breakers around you being feared, admired, copied and punished. You’ll note that these are not all good rules; some of them are terrible.

The question is not, “Should you break rules?” but, “Which ones?”

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Experience validates beliefs. You’ll literally find the answers you are looking for. Your desired or expected solution will emerge to meet you regardless of whether it’s effective, true or correct. To get to the right answer, you must first let go of preferences. It takes an open mind to know what’s real.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The customs handed down from generation to generation that were once the cornerstone of social behavior can get lost in the fast-paced world. It takes a concerted effort to keep a tradition; that’s an effort you’re willing to make as you plan the end of your year. Your decisions will create future magic.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There’s something delicious about a little trouble if you keep it to just one kind. The only trouble you will ever need is the trouble you have. The troubles of the past and future will tempt you, though they have nothing to offer. The trouble you have offers you strength, improvement and entertainment.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You take stock of your life daily, but it’s also helpful to periodically survey the whole scene to understand how it all fits together and what is best to focus on. This takes time and isn’t always fun, but deep thinking and meaningful plans will come out of it. You’ll be so glad you scheduled time to sort and assess.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

If life is a theme park, this solar journey sees you riding more rides -some fast and thrilling, others rich in story and beauty. Your favorite will be the games, though, because you’re a clever strategist with your eye on a prize, which you’ll be motivated to win for your loved ones. Also notable this year is the significant amount of time you spend in Cupid’s clutches.

Express your poetic heart in every stage. Your bravery will be rewarded -if not in the moment, then double in future moments.

Adventures With A Grumpy Old Rock Star Rick Wakeman shares chapters from a well-traveled life

BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

According to the Oxford Dictionary, a raconteur is “a person who tells anecdotes in a skillful and amusing way.” With that understanding, anyone who has ever experienced a conversation with Rock and Roll Hall of Fame keyboardist Rick Wakeman might wonder if his picture might be found next to that definition. As an on-again, off-again member of prog rock giants Yes, Wakeman has always cut a figure as a performer prone to wearing capes all while possessing considerable chops behind his bank of keyboards. Currently touring behind his one-man Even Grumpier Old Rock Star Tour, the septuagenerian musician is thrilled to be back in his element. As someone who loves the post-performance meet-and-greet ritual as much as he does playing live music, the recent 18-month lockdown his native UK imposed due to the pandemic proved to be a form of torture for the self-described people person, particularly given the personal loss he experienced.

“I

would lie if I said it was easy and it hasn’t been for anybody really,” he said. “I lost 19 friends during the pandemic, plus a lot more who had it and didn’t have any symptoms whatsoever. I just took the advice from people who I thought were giving the right advice which was basically stay as safe as possible. We live very close to the sea, so there is lots of country around us and we were able to take walks and not be around a lot of people, so that was good. The hardest thing was not being able to visit or see people. Even more so, you couldn’t tour, do concerts or make music properly because you couldn’t work with other musicians. That for me, was beyond frustrating because every time we thought they sorted out

the pandemic and life was starting to come back to normal, then something else happened and it wasn’t [normal life] anymore.”

He Is The Entertainer Wakeman had several world tours canceled in nearly two years due to the erratic state the live music industry was put in because of COVID-19.

Now that he’s dividing the current jaunt into two legs, with the second to resume in March 2022, the native Londoner is making up for lost time as best as possible, while ensuring he and his audience are safe. Pandemic protocols are in place with social distancing and masking required backstage and face coverings required for attendees. He considers it a small

price to pay for the ability to get back to playing music and connecting with his audience.

“It’s great to be back out playing, it really is,” he said. “I feel for people that sit there in rows with masks and you just hope they’re smiling behind them.

But with this current tour, it’s my one-man show. I grab a piano, a couple of keyboards and a lot of anecdotal and ridiculous stories that I tell. It’s very intimate. I like to think of it, regardless of the size of the theater, that everyone is in my front room kind of thing. It’s a lot of fun and I enjoy doing them very much indeed. The

other great thing is that when you’re on your own, you can have a set list and whatever stories you want to tell.

But then you arrive somewhere and someone will remind you of something of something will happen and you wind up changing the set, so every day and every show, there is something different in the set and some different story that comes in because somebody reminds you of something.

And that’s something you can do when you’re on your own that you can’t do with a band. I like meeting and talking to people and that’s the hard thing. The show is great, but I miss the real meeting of people and

friends who’ve come to the shows.

They sort of wave from outside.”

From The Beginning Music was always an integral part of Wakeman’s life, dating back to being three years old and sitting on the bottom step of his childhood home watching his piano-playing father jam with other instrumentalist family members who came around on Sundays (“I thought it was a most wonderful thing”). When the young Wakeman was five, piano lessons were arranged with a local teacher named Dorothy Symes, a profound influence who he regularly met up with for 11 years until he was accepted at London’s Royal College of Music.

It was while studying piano, clarinet, orchestration and modern music with the goal of becoming a concert pianist that Wakeman became an in-demand studio musician after crossing paths with producers Tony Visconti, Gus Dudgeon and Denny Cordell. Among the many sessions Wakeman played on where David Bowie’s “Space Oddity” and T. Rex’s “Get It On.” And while he’d become better known for his prog rock work with Yes, Wakeman connected with the presentation and theatricality that was inherent with what Bowie and Marc Bolan were using to define glam rock.

“One of the things that was important to me, which I felt you should have with prog rock or any kind of orchestral rock, was theater,” he said. “That’s what people like Marc [Bolan] and David had in abundance. They were very much on the principle that while people came to hear the music, there was a spectacle to watch as well and you had to look the part. That was the spark for me. We talked about it in Yes’ world, which is why we brought Roger Dean in to build the stage. I think that was really important. It was a good period. I think one of the great things prog rock did was take the best ideas from other genres of music, which was great.”

Progging Out When Wakeman was asked to join Yes in 1972 to replace incumbent keyboardist Tony Kaye, Wakeman had to turn down Bowie’s offer to join the latter’s Spiders From Mars.

It was a fortuitous decision that would see Wakeman bouncing back in and out of the group as a member that he described as being akin to Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor’s relationship (“Can’t live with each other and can’t live without each other”). And while the last band-related project he participated in was Yes featuring Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin

and Rick Wakeman from 2016 through 2020, Wakeman said the epiphany all members of the extended Yes family learned was to appreciate and respect everyone’s differences.

“We get on great because we learned to give each other space,” he explained “One of the things we

learned in Yes is that we’re all very different people. We have different lifestyles, hobbies and different views on pretty much everything. But that doesn’t mean to say you can’t make great music together because you have the same views on music—that’s all that really matters. What we learned in recent years, and this century more

than any other time, is to accept that we’re not the same and don’t have the same loves in life if you take the music away. I speak to Jon and Trevor a lot.

I’m having dinner with Steve [Howe] when I get back. I haven’t seen Steve since the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame [induction ceremony]. I said we should have some lunch. We probably won’t have the next meal until we’re 130—you just play things by ear.”

Rick Wakeman’s Fave Concept Albums

While not a founding member of Yes, Rick Wakeman is an important part of this seminal group. And it can be argued, its most successful solo member. A prolific maker of music, be it performing live or in the studio, a good part of Wakeman’s creative stock in trade is his affinity for concept albums with the most recent being 2020’s The Red Planet. He attributes his soft spot for this very specific kind of recorded project as a result of his “...being a huge history buff who loves myths, legends and stories. A good concept album has to be something that captures people’s imaginations about various topics. It is something that’s real, but it’s your take on it. Concept albums will always have a great place in my musical heart.” Here are some of the projects that have left a major mark on him.

The Six Wives of Henry VIII (1973) “This is a favorite because it was my first. This part of history involves real people in a real period of time that was truly bizarre. You have a period of time where Henry VIII decided that he didn’t want to be part of the Catholic Church because they wouldn’t let him keep getting divorced. So he started his own religion—The Church of England and then he could get divorced. If [his wives] kicked up a stink, he cut their heads off. It was almost the things of storytelling where you ask yourself if this is for real. It was a fascinating period of time for people. People forget that somebody like Catherine Howard— they don’t know the exact age when she died but at best, she was 19. But to get executed at 19—for all of the stuff

that I looked at, she was what we would nowadays call a good-time girl. Then you’ve got the unbelievably brave Anne Boleyn. She stood up to Henry and everybody. Even at her execution, she really was the true Queen and lady. All these kind of things I found fascinating.”

Journey To The Centre of the Earth (1974) “Most of the concept albums I do are based on other books. Jules Verne wrote some great, great stories to read. They’re very colorful to do. This inspired me enough that I did an album called Return To the Centre of the Earth, which was based around Journey To the Centre of the Earth. Patrick Stewart did the narrative for me. He summed it up perfectly for me. He said he wanted to

read it before he did it. He read it, called me up and said he really wanted to do it. He said, ‘Who doesn’t love a good yarn?’”

The Myths and Legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table (1975) “There’s a place in England called Tintagel, where King Arthur’s castle is and this very little town is all King Arthur. It’s fantastic. I went there first when I was an eight-year-old kid and it stayed with me.”

No Earthly Connection (1976) “I’m fond of No Earthly Connection because I have a huge fascination with space and UFOs. With that album, I spent a year researching all of that before I did the album. I have friends in NASA, who were a great help to me.

That was quite special.”

1984 (1981) “I like things that I can sink my teeth into. I did an album where the lyrics were done by Sir Tim Rice called 1984, based on George Orwell’s novel. We had wonderful people like Chaka Khan on board. We were going to turn that into a musical but the Orwell estate wouldn’t give us permission, which was really tragic.”
