TOP STORY

We Are All Ukrainians Now

BY FRANK RIZZO

frizzo@antonmediagroup.com

T

he Russian invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24 set off repercussions that were felt at the geopolitical level—and as close as the neighborhood gas pump.

The war has also brought a heightened awareness of that historical area and unprecedented support for Ukraine in general and the estimated (per the Bureau of the Census) 5,200 residents of Ukrainian descent in Nassau County, many of whom still have relatives and friends in that troubled land, On March 8, the Town of Oyster Bay held a candlelight vigil for peace and a donation drop off at St. Josaphat’s Monastery in Lattingtown, longtime home to a Basilian order of the Ukrainian Catholic Church. Dozens of people showed up at the historic site, which began life as Gold Coast mansion back in the early 20th century. Many sang the Ukrainian national anthem in their native tongue.

Oyster Bay Supervisor Joseph Saladino said he came up with the idea to hold the vigil because, as he told Anton Media Group, “It’s so important to show hope, to show support, and to pray for the people of this independent nation. We want to provide an opportunity for everyone to come together and help the people of Ukraine. We feel as though this collection drive of clothes, food, medical supplies and resources will be very important as one of many steps to help people through this most crucial time.”

Asked about the logistics of getting the supplies to those in need, Saladino said there’s a depot in New Jersey that delivers materials to countries that border Ukraine.

“What’s happening is that refugees are coming in trains and then the trains are going back with supplies,” the supervisor explained.

He added, “My heart was torn seeing a picture of a mother and her children dead in the street, gunned down purposefully. It is outrageous, the war crimes that are going on.

It hearkens back to the 1940s, one of the most terrifying times in world history.”

Saladino was joined by Oyster Bay Councilwoman Michele Johnson, Receiver of Taxes Jeff Pravato, Clerk Rich LaMarca and Daniel Alter, representing Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman. From the dais hung a blue and gold Ukrainian flag gifted by the Ukrainian Embassy, “Words are difficult because the emotions surrounding this tragedy run so deep,” Saladino said in his remarks. “That’s why each and every one of you have come out this evening, The people of Ukraine have undergone unfathomable chaos due to the invasion of their country and it’s changed their lives forever.”

After noting that more than 2 million refugees have escaped the chaos by finding havens in neighboring countries such as Poland, Romania and Slovakia, Saladino drew

“During World War II that home was destroyed by a bomb and to this day when she gardens she still finds ammunition in the soil,” she said. “I hope that her home will not be destroyed by a bomb again. I hope that people will not find ammunition from this invasion in her garden. I pray that this war will soon be over, and Ukrainians whose lives have been destroyed will soon be able to return to their homeland. I hope they get to enjoy the same fundamental rights of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness that we are so fortunate to have here in the United States of America.”

Glen Cove Celebrates International Women’s Day Panelists of inspirational and mold-breaking women

BY NATALIA VENTURA

T

nventura@antonmediagroup.com

he City of Glen Cove hosted the 2nd Annual Women’s History Month “Female Firsts” Panel in celebration of International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month on Monday, March 7 at Glen Cove City Hall.

Councilwoman Marsha Silverman moderated the panel, and was a big factor in organizing the event, along with Lou Bernardi, president of the Valor Foundation. The panelists for that night included Dawn Riley, Martine Materasso, and Elaine Phillips.

“I’m extrememly excited to be here tonight, sitting next to these amazing, groundbreaking women who have come together for a discussion about women succeeding in traditionally male-dominated fields,” stated Silverman.

Riley is a world sailor; she sailed in three America’s Cup races, two Whitbread Round the World races, and was the first American to accomplish this feat. She was raised in Michigan, where she attended Michigan State University. She is also the first female to manage an entire America’s Cup syndicate.

Riley is dedicated to building future American leaders through sailing, and continues to open doors for aspiring women sailors in the competitively male-dominated sport.

“You should see yourself as something powerful, and see your body as a tool to get to where you want,” commented Riley.

In 2020 Materasso became the first female Chief of the New York Police Department (NYPD) Counterterrorism Bureau. She is also the first woman to be the Commanding Officer of NYPD’s 41st Precinct. Materasso directs roughly 1,000 officers and is responsible for several NYPD units.

“My dad was also an assistant chief in NYPD, and growing up it seemed like something I’d wanted to do. I did go to Florida International University, and I majored in Criminal Justice,” stated Materasso.

While attending Florida International University, she was the starting goalie for their soccer team.

“I think that being a college athlete transformed into this job,” said Materasso.

Phillips was elected in Nov. 2021 as the first female Nassau County Comptroller.

She is also a former New York State Senator for the 7th Senate District. Her successful career includes becoming the first female in Flower Hill’s history to hold the title of Mayor from 2012 to 2016. Phillips graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in political science and received her MBA in finance from

Penn University. She is also a 5th degree black belt and martial arts instructor.

“Body image is a big thing in women’s sports, sadly. It’s so important for women to support other women. Men have been doing that for decades, women are finally figuring out how important that is. Women have got to support each other. The confidence, strength, and drive from martial arts has been very educational and helpful to me in my career path.” said Phillips. ““If you wait for opportunities, they may or may not come. But when presented with opportunities, you have to say yes. Women have an innate ability to multitask and figure things out,” Phillips continued.

“She is a trailblazer with a successful career in finance and public service,” said Silverman.

The panelists were asked by Silverman if they have ever felt they would never receive a second chance to prove themselves as a female in their respective roles.

Riley responded, “I don’t think I was ever given a chance. I took the chance. I was breaking barriers where there weren’t women who went before me.”

When asked if there was something they know now, that they wish to have their younger selves know, Materasso commented, “Sometimes people look upon failure as something bad, but I think that everybody in this room has failed at something but learned so much from it. You have to turn that failure into something good that will come out of it.”

“Keep moving forward because there are people who want to drag us down and we can’t let that happen. Whatever your path is, it’s okay. Life will be okay. I wish I had that wisdom back in my early thirties,” Phillips added.

Antigone Rising, an all-female rock band, performed at the event. They are the founders of Girls Rising, a nonprofit organization to empower and inspire girls and LGBTQIA kids to pursue careers in male dominated fields.

“If you don’t see a change in the world, then be the change that you want to see,” commented Antigone Rising band member Nini Camps.

The panelists were recognized with citations from Senator Jim Gaughran, Senator Kevin Thomas, Nassau County Legislator Delia DeRiggi-Whitton, and Assemblymember Charles Lavine.

New York Presidents: The Famous and The Forgotten, Part I

BY JOE SCOTCHIE jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com

I

n the nation’s early years, Virginia was the nation’s most populous state.

Presidents came from Old Dominion: Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, John Tyler and Zachary Taylor. With its busy port a destination for the world’s commerce, New York would replace Virginia as the most populous state. It too, would become a breeding ground for chief executives. The first New Yorker to be elected was Martin Van Buren, who had served as Andrew Jackson’s vice president.

Others followed: Millard Fillmore, Chester Arthur, Grover Cleveland, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Donald Trump. In today’s New York, the upstate region is at best an afterthought.

At one time, it produced presidents.

Academics regularly come up with presidential rankings—first (usually Abraham Lincoln) to last (the hapless James Buchanan)—that few pay attention to. Here’s our homage to Empire State Presidents.

Millard Fillmore

As with Van Buren, Fillmore was a native of upstate New York, in this case, Cayuga County. In 1848, Mexican War hero Zachary Taylor was elected president with Millard Fillmore Fillmore as his run(public domain) ning mate. Two years later, Taylor succumbed to Washington’s humid summers and died unexpectedly at age 66. Fillmore’s presidency was marked mostly by foreign policy, especially the famed opening to Japan as conducted

by Commodore Matthew Perry, one that was consummated after Fillmore left office. In 1852, Fillmore failed to win the Democratic Party’s nomination. Four years later, he attempted a comeback as standard bearer for the anti-immigration American Party. That bid fell short, too.

When Civil War broke out, Fillmore,

although elderly, did not sit on the sidelines. He formed a home guard, the Union Continentals, which remained active throughout the conflict.

Chester Arthur

Arthur followed the same pattern as Van Buren and Fillmore. An upstate New York native, he served as James Garfield’s vice president.

Chester Arthur Taylor died a (Charles Milton Bell/ natural death. In public domain) 1881, Garfield was assassinated by a deranged gunman, who reportedly wanted Arthur to become chief executive. Arthur, too, served only one term as president. His one term focused heavily on civil service reform as the nation now coped with a rising urban population and the bureaucratic problems such a demographic change entailed. Historian George F. Howe has singled out Arthur as an honest politician in a time of widespread corruption.

“Arthur adopted [a code] for his own political behavior but subject to three restraints: he remained to everyone a man of his word; he kept scrupulously free from corrupt graft; he maintained a personal dignity, affable and genial though he might be,” Howe maintained.

“These restraints ... distinguished him sharply from the stereotypical politician.”

Grover Cleveland

With Cleveland, the upstate dynasty rolls on. “Grover the Good” was born in Caldwell, NJ, but reared in Clinton, a town in Oneida County. In 1881, Cleveland was elected mayor of Buffalo as a reformer Democrat. He parlayed that success into winning the governorship of New York only a year later. Cleveland topped off his incredible run by being

Martin Van Buren (MatthewBrady/public domain)

elected president in 1884. Four years later, Cleveland was defeated

by Benjamin Harrison.

Undaunted, Cleveland was promptly elected again in the 1892 election.

Cleveland was a Democrat in a time of Republican Party Grover Cleveland (public domain) domination. His policies were similar to GOP presidents, including trade protection, anti-immigration measures and armed neutrality. Cleveland kept government spending to a minimum, regularly wielded his veto pen. He was both the first president to marry while in the White House and the first to be captured on film.

Martin Van Buren

Van Buren was a native of little Kinderhook, an attorney turned politician who was elected president in 1836 and defeated for re-election in 1840 by William Henry Harrison. Van Buren is forgotten today, save for a high school in Queens County, but he has his fans. In a 2001 collection, Reassessing the Presidency, libertarian author Jeffrey Rogers Hummel gave “The Little Magician” high marks: He avoided potential conflicts with both Great Britain and Mexico, while resisting the impulse to increase government spending during the Panic of 1837. During Van Buren’s sole four-year term, Americans, Hummel claimed: “[Enjoyed] greater freedom from government intervention than any other people on the face of the Earth.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR TWO VIEWS OF THE STATE OF THE UNION Two of Long Island’s congressional members released the following statements after attending President Biden’s first State of the Union address recently.

Kathleen Rice

President Biden’s address exemplifies the steady, bipartisan approach that our country needs.

I am particularly grateful for this leadership as we face an international crisis. His fierce stance against Vladimir Putin and quick action in coordinating global sanctions against Russia have helped re-establish the United States as a respected power on the world stage.

We have worked hard since January 2021 to enact policy that

directly benefits the American people. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act has already provided millions of dollars to New York, and I will continue working with the state and federal government to ensure that this funding goes to creating good-paying jobs, fixing our crumbling roads and bridges, and cleaning-up contaminated drinking water.

While these legislative victories should be applauded, President

Biden is right to acknowledge that we have more work to do. We have made great progress rebuilding our economy, but I know that my constituents still feel the financial impact of inflation and supply chain issues. I am proud to have helped the America COMPETES Act pass the House, and we need to deliver the final version to the President’s desk to support workers and put money directly in the pockets of Americans. We must also finally pass the Fiscal

Year 2022 omnibus package that will allow President Biden to keep our government funded and to send necessary financial aid to Ukraine.

Now is the time for Americans to come together. We must present a united front both internally, as we implement this legislation, and externally, as we join our global allies in combating Russia’s aggression.

—Rice (D–Garden City), represents the 3rd Congressional District

crisis, rising costs and joblessness as a direct result of his failed agenda.

Even after the so-called “Build Back Better” bill was rejected by Congress and the American people, he continued to call for the

passage of his progressive wish list. He failed to acknowledge many of his disastrous policies, including his ill-conceived Afghanistan withdrawal.

This is a President who ran on a platform of unity, but all

he has done is divide us further.

In a word, tonight’s speech was underwhelming.

An Ugly Legacy For Your Grandchildren

BY JERRY KREMER

INSIDE POLITICS Jerry Kremer

report is an atlas of human suffering and a damning indictment of failed climate leadership.

It shows how severe the impacts of human–caused global warming are becoming worldwide and how hard it will be for societies to manage if nations do not bring down greenhouse gas emissions sharply. A simpler way to say it is that we are seeing an increase in wildfires, heatwaves and rising sea levels many of which are caused by human conduct.

On the issue of heat waves, it was once thought that if temperatures did not exceed 3.6 degrees

Fahrenheit, the planet would be spared of any serious fallout.

That doesn’t sound like a lot to a family in Levittown, but in places like Alaska a higher year-round temperature could lead to massive die-off of trees, drying of bogs, massive fires and a thawing of the permafrost that releases more carbon dioxide into the air, all conditions that are impossible to stop.

Another threat to future generations is the current political makeup of the U.S. Supreme Court. The court is currently considering whether the federal Environmental Protection Agency has the power to dictate regulations that protect the public from industrial and energy industry activities that add to global warming. During arguments before the court, Justice Samuel A. Alito, Jr., skeptical of climate change warnings, said it was a “... phenomenon which some people believe is a matter of civilizational survival.” The court will more than likely void a whole series of regulations meant to protect future generations.

Unlike the politicians and jurists who have no time to read up on the subject of climate change,

There is a Lutheran Church in my neighborhood that is tiny compared to the large buildings surrounding it. Walking by recently, I noticed a poster whose contents captured my attention and I took a photo of it. The posting states "The ultimate test of a moral society is the kind of world that it leaves to its children.”

It attributes the quote to Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a Lutheran theologian who was hanged because of his opposition to the Nazi regime.

I thought about Bonhoeffer’s comments when I read portions of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a body of experts convened by the United Nations. They have released the most comprehensive report on the threats posed by global warming by any major environmental organization. The report concludes that nations are not doing enough to protect cities, farms and coastal regions from the hazards that climate change has already unleashed.

The report was written by 270 researchers from 67 countries with the approval of 195 countries. According to UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres, the

Vacation Envy “Hot fun in the summer sun”...

That’s what we all want. Vacations are the reason we work, running a close second behind money.

These days, with remote working, I sit in front of two monitors and listen to disgruntled customers from the comfort of my apartment. No more driving 35 miles round trip, five days a week, on chewed-up highways to enter an office and incur a brutal onslaught of inconsiderate co-workers that eat fish at their desk and never shut up. With that said, remote work is still work and you need vacations. Until that Friday afternoon when an anvil dropped on my computer.

I received notice from the boss I used to respect alerting me those valuable days were canceled for the rest of the year. No solid reason given. Some cost cutting, all nonsense, garbage rhetoric.

What I didn’t need in addition to my vacation days washed away by a corporate tsunami was to receive “fun in the sun’ pictures from friends vacationing while watching the snow pile up outside my door.

The photos arrived via email

LONG ISLAND STORIES Thomas Kuntzmann

from a friend of mine showing himself and another friend who, like myself, are sitting. One small difference. The boys are kicking back in beach chairs, wearing smiles like they’re auditioning for a toothpaste ad. Each picture showed the Atlantic Ocean in the background and a plate full of of shrimp hogging the foreground.

The guys have their arms raised in a toast, one gripping a Bloody Mary the other some Topazcolored drink. Expecting me to return the toast is like them suddenly getting hit by a blizzard and me receiving a heat wave.

Anyway, strapped with the news

about the vacation days coupled with my own self-pity of being chained to my desk, I deleted the pictures from my ex-friends. What can I say? It was a gut reaction.

Yes, childish and out of character for me. I’m a fun guy and as dependable as they come. I’m willing to drive you to the airport for a 6 a.m. flight needing only gas money and dinner for a week.

Under normal circumstances, seeing others enjoying life through their lame vacation shots doesn’t bring me to my knees. I have too much respect for my time.

After an hour of envy and then self-reflection, I realized the pettiness of the situation and dug through the trash folder where I store important documents.

Finding the pictures, I checked them out more closely, along with some new ones showing them now getting friendly with two attractive blondes. I threw my head back and laughed now feeling their joy. Good for them. These guys are in the position of having the time to go enjoy themselves.

Hey, I admit I’d do the same by showing the world what I look like in a bathing suit, spilling drinks

and gouging shrimp. But I should make this last crucial point.

Even though I can handle it, cut me some slack and don’t send me your good-time pictures while I’m struggling to get through a brutal day full of complaints. Am I right? Not a big deal. Just use some discretion when gloating.

Then again, why don’t you keep sending those incredibly fun-loving photos? I need a good laugh. Like the two blonds in the most recent pictures. I noticed they looked like the waitress who served the topaz-colored cocktails in the first set of pictures. Not two women cruising the beach that my buddies corralled because

of their dynamic personalities.

Needing to get back to work, I sent the boys a quick response saying I saw through their deception of being the “king gigolos” of the beach. Also, that’s Miami where they were dropping a wad of cash.

Want to impress me? Let’s see some pics from a locale worth talking about like an international vacation in the Spanish Pyrenees mountains.

CALIFORNIA CLOSETS from page 3B We recently spoke with Debra Russo, a designer with the California Closet team here on Long Island about the market trends and how the pandemic has helped people recognize the need to reshape their living spaces.

“We do so much more than just closets, we do Murphy beds, home offices, entertainment units, bars and so much more now,” Russo said. “We have done so many home offices in recent years; the new term is cloffice–a fusion of a walk-in closet and a home office.”

The idea is not new, however; thanks to the pandemic-prompted work-fromhome explosion, the term looks to be a mainstream design topic on social media sites like Pinterest.

“I’ve noticed a shift in consumption, in what people are buying,” Russo said.

“People aren’t really doing much fast fashion; people are trying to be a little more minimal, spending money on better, quality items, but fewer of them.

And I am seeing a lot of ‘capsule wardrobes’ too.”

A capsule wardrobe is a term used in American publications as early as the 1940s to describe a small collection of garments designed to be worn together.

The clothing collection, for instance, might have six items in total (a skirt, a blouse, a T-shirt, a blazer, a pullover sweater and a pair of pants), but mixed and matched strategically can produce 30 different outfits.

“People are letting go of a lot of things and really making their closets more of a sanctuary,” Russo said. “They are starting to see the value of their closets as extended living space.”

She said that homeowners are incorporating Murphy beds into their walk-in closets; a lot of people are converting guest rooms into walk-in closets and also adding an office into the same space.

“We can make custom built-ins like cabinetry for your clothes if you don’t want someone feeling like they are sleeping in your closet,” Russo said. “We can put doors over hanging clothes to create a wall and a wall-bed on the other wall.”

Do these conversions take away from the value of your home?

“If the home is lacking storage, a conversion will not decrease the home’s value,” said Russo. “Also, our systems are modular; you can take it completely apart, in fact some people take it apart and take it with them to their new home.”

If you sell your home and the new owners decide they want to convert the space back into a bedroom, it all comes apart; California Closets does offer a service to help return a space to its original state.

Without a lot of forethought or creativity, Russo said people were calling at the beginning of the pandemic asking for a desk to be built adjacent to their bed.

With the help of their design team, they were able to identify more productive

California Closets’ Seville design spaces throughout the house for a home office to be built.

“One of the things I see the most on Long Island in new and existing homes is lack of storage. It seems like for a lot of contractors who build homes, the closets are an afterthought,” Russo said. “They put in a standard shelf and pole, which does nothing for anyone. Things do not have a proper place. When you open the closet doors and everything comes tumbling out, shoes are piled all over the floor.”

She said Long Island homes are missing proper homes for belongings, especially in pantries.

“You are missing slide-out drawers for things like onions and potatoes; you are missing adjustable shelving for appliances and canned goods; everything is a different size,” Russo said.

She said the trend in new construction seems to be to create a smaller primary bedroom, but to make the primary closets larger, keeping furniture minimal inside the bedroom (bed, nightstand, TV). All of the furniture and things (dressers, hampers, shoes) go inside the closet. This

4B | DESIGN & DÉCOR • MARCH 16 - 22, 2022

concept lends to better energy in the living spaces.

“I see people waste so much money on fun containers and bins; think about how much money you’re putting into these organizing accessories,” Russo said. “It’s going to save you so much money in the long run; I have seen people spend $1,000 on bins. A new closet would have cost you $600.”

An open concept is nice, but some people still want semi-privacy in some spaces.

Nature Meets Living: Trends 2022 Making space naturally comfortable

BY GREG LANZA

specialsections@antonmediagroup.com

Design trends in any decade are typically defined by the halfway point of that timeline. Two years ago, 2020, caused a different scenario and forced changes as we adapted to pandemic living.

T

his brings us to our first trend—redefining spaces. Less used dining rooms and living rooms have turned into offices and Zoom rooms.

Dual-purpose rooms have been on-trend for years. An office/guest room with pullout bed is common in many homes, but many have turned their living rooms into offices, libraries and studies, often adding a small dining table for intimate fireside dinners. A guest room stylishly outfitted with a large mirror and Peloton is an inviting amenity for guests not wanting to miss their daily routine. Why not? It’s 2022 and almost anything goes.

As nice as the open concept is for main spaces, some people may want semi-private areas. I don’t think the trend will disappear as it does increase visual space and brings families together as you can multitask and oversee everyone.

We had been forced to slow down and spend time in our homes and neighborhoods. This has affected our moods and creativity. Gardens flourished and kitchens were filled with the aroma of new recipes, which brings us to the return of handcrafted items. DIYs created elaborate macramé wall hangings, crafts and artwork. It’s a return to comfort and decor that makes us feel at ease. Colors in this category are those that fuel our well-being:

earth and nature tones of brown and green. The trend for emerald and daring green hues feels more natural than ever. I envision the return of the leather sofa, not in black but in a saddle or cognac to pair with pure white or ecru walls. Grey now seems like a space capturing all the light that it can on a rainy day.

Nature leads to organic shapes and the curved furniture trend. Think mushroom shapes in cream, tan and brown, like the futuristic 1950s upholstery shapes of Miami Beach but in a deep forest or desert color palate. Deep, softer shaped seating with rounded arms or at least soft squared off ones. Bringing the outdoors in is on trend with natural, raw, porous, textured materials and yes, tumbled marble, terracotta, limestone and travertine will be making a comeback. Lighting fixtures incorporating rope, wood, wicker, shells and coconut beads and fragments are part of this trend for the organic home.

Wallpaper in color and pattern will be on trend in nature-related themes, and eventually so will the ancient, distressed wall, Venetian plaster, etc. As for color, I am known for my sophisticated neutral palette and sublime use of color. I love

Your boxes of photos, family’s china, and even the kids’ height charts aren’t just stuff; they’re attached to a lifetime of memories and letting them go can be scary. With empathy, expertise and humor, Keep the Memories, Lose the Stuff, written in collaboration with AARP, helps you sift through years of clutter, let go of what no longer serves you and identify the items worth keeping so that you can focus on living in the present.

For more than 20 years, Paxton has helped people from all walks of life who want to live more simply, declutter and downsize. As a featured cleaner on Hoarders and host of the Emmy-nominated Legacy List with Matt Paxton on PBS, he has identified the psychological roadblocks that most organizational experts routinely miss but

that prevent so many of us from lightening our material load. Using poignant stories from the thousands of individuals and families he has worked with, Paxton brings his signature insight to a necessary task.

As the most current wiring book on the market, you can be confident that your projects will meet national wiring codes. You’ll also spend more time on your project and less time scratching your head thanks to more than 800 clear color photos and more than 40 diagrams that show you exactly what you need to know about home electrical service; all the most common circuits, all the most-needed techniques, all the most essential tools and materials.

The information in this book has been created and reviewed by professional electricians under the watchful eye of the experts at BLACK+DECKER. You can find plenty of articles and videos about wiring online or in other

publications, but only The Complete Guide to Wiring has passed the rigorous test to make it part of the best DIY series from the brand you trust.

Campaign Urges Phosphorus-Free Lawn Fertilizer

has a master bath and huge walk-in closets. The home has an upper-level laundry room. The extraordinary, enlarged lower level has a gym, a home theater, a bedroom and a full bathroom. The home has a picturesque outdoor entertainment space and equipped with Fido’s Fences. It is zoned for membership at the East Hills pool and park district, located in the Roslyn School District. This home is close to houses of worship.

New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) Commissioner Basil Seggos announced the launch of the annual “Look for the Zero” public awareness campaign to encourage homeowners to go phosphorus-free when using lawn fertilizer. Consumers should review bag labels for phosphorus content when shopping for fertilizer. Fertilizer labels have three numbers and the number in the middle is the percentage of phosphorus in the product, such as: 22-0-15. More than 100 water bodies in New York cannot be used or enjoyed because of phosphorus overuse.

The nutrient runoff law prohibits the use of phosphorus fertilizers unless a new lawn is being established or a soil test shows the lawn does not have enough phosphorus. Only newly established lawns or those with poor soil need phosphorus.

Excess phosphorus from lawns can wash off and pollute lakes and streams, harming fish, pets or people that use these waters for recreating and a source of revenue for towns that must close beaches or boating areas. State law requires retailers to post signs notifying customers of the terms of the law and to display phosphorus fertilizer separately from phosphorus-free fertilizer.

DEC is encouraging homeowners to practice more sustainable lawn care and choose native plants and grasses, which are adapted to the local climate and soil conditions. These plant species provide nectar, pollen

and seeds that serve as food for native butterflies, insects, birds, and other animals. Organic lawn care can easily be implemented on any lawn and safe and effective alternatives exist for most chemical pesticides and fertilizers.

Recommendations for sustainable lawn care include spreading a quarter inch of compost on the lawn to improve moisture retention and soil texture and add beneficial microorganisms and nutrients. Allow grass to grow to three inches and then cut no more than one inch off the top. The “one-third” rule helps develop a deeper root system, which is a natural defense against weeds, disease and drought.

Leave lawn clippings after mowing to improve the health of the lawn. Clippings are 80 percent water and contain two to four percent nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other nutrients.

Leaving clippings saves homeowners time after mowing and reduces the amount of garbage.

Grass clippings can account for as much as 10 percent of garbage.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Selfishness causes conflicts. Get to the bottom of it by trying to understand what exactly it is that people want. It’s often not what they say or even what they think they want. You’ll sense how people are feeling and what they might be lacking. You can help get everyone on the same page, working together with aligned goals.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). It’s exciting to watch people doing things. It’s not fun at all to watch people looking at screens. This is why the most attractive people are the ones who have at least a few hobbies that do not involve a computer. This week you’ll cultivate talents outside the digital world to stellar effect.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your mind is a beautiful vehicle that can go where other vehicles cannot. You can visit dreams, go back and forth in time and rehearse experiences you’d like to have. The world you create in your imagination will influence the real world. The weekend brings luck for finding new treasures; you’ll add to a collection.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Good communication isn’t something you can set up and then ignore; it needs to be maintained. In the weeks to come you will open and strengthen various lines of communication. This week brings new people into your realm. Start building trust. These ties have the potential to enrich you in untold ways.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your attractions will drive you even when they are not at the front of your mind. Sometimes you will have to remind yourself what excites and delights you. Describe the moment when your passion ignited, and you will feel it flicker anew. The color of the fire may have changed, but it still burns just as hot.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). According to Shakespeare, brevity is the soul of wit. According to Dorothy Parker, brevity is the soul of lingerie. And according to this week, brevity is the soul of pleasure, as too much of any good thing will be a terrible thing. In moderation will be delight.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your mind is skeptical of gut feelings. Your instincts come from a mysterious place your mind has never visited and doubts exists. However, more often than not, the wisdom that comes from the center of your being is right. No matter how illogical a notion may seem, give some credence to what feels right.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You believe in equality, and you treat everyone with the same respect. However, you also recognize that people have different needs, expectations and preferences. You’ll pull off something amazing this week.

You’ll cater to people specifically yet still uphold the ethos of equality.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

You’ll make something that matters with someone you care about. In the process, you’ll exchange little pieces of your soul. Love is collaboration. Collaboration is love.

When it works with a person or a group of people, keep going with the same team.

The work gets easier, and the magic gets deeper. An advanced training will prove worth the price of admission. You’ll grow your skills and financial potential.

Well-managed money will bring more freedom to you and yours.

Pass 4♣ Pass 5 NT(!!) Pass 7♥ Opening lead — king of spades.

Without an explanation, the bidding by North on this deal suggests that he may have taken leave of his senses, but nobody would criticize the final contract, which is laydown. It just goes to show that crazy-looking bids can be very successful, even though they don’t mean what they seem to say.

A number of years ago, some genius (according to the Official Encyclopedia of Bridge, it was Dorothy Hayden Truscott) came up with the idea that a jump-shift

response one level higher than necessary indicates a void or a singleton in the suit bid, adequate support for partner’s last-bid suit and sufficient values for at least a game, with a potential for slam opposite a fitting hand. That accounts for North’s three-spade bid, commonly called a “splinter bid.”

Certainly the North hand is ideally suited for such a convention.

The moment partner opens one heart, North should start thinking in terms of a slam. From North’s viewpoint, the key to the slam is South’s holding in spades and clubs. South could have spade strength and three club losers, or, ideally, club strength and three spade losers.

The three-spade bid thus encourages South, who has no wasted values in spades, to cooperate by cuebidding the ace of clubs.

North is delighted to hear this bid, leaving South’s trump holding the only question remaining to be resolved. Accordingly, North next invokes the “grand slam force” convention by leaping to five notrump.

This commands South to bid seven hearts if he holds two of the top three trump honors.

So South dutifully bids the grand slam, with full confidence that North has not gone completely berserk.

Tomorrow: Bidding quiz.

Assemblymember Lavine Responds To Humanitarian Crisis In Ukraine With Collection Drive Assemblymember Charles Lavine (D-Glen Cove) is joining the Ukrainian Americans of Long Island for a humanitarian collection drive for the suffering people of Ukraine. The drive is the latest expression of American solidarity with the Ukrainian community following the invasion of Ukraine

by Russia. Lavine has repeatedly issued strong condemnations of the unprovoked aggression

by Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“I am in awe of the courage the Ukrainian civilians have shown in protecting their country and defending it from tyranny. It is now time for us as Americans to do our part to support them,” Lavine said.

Lavine’s office will be collecting urgently needed supplies which will be sent directly to

victims of the war in Ukraine.

The following is a suggested list of items that are most in need: Clothing, toothpaste, dental floss, mouthwash, toothbrushes, soap bars, hand sanitizers, feminine hygiene products, shampoo/conditioner, deodorants, razor/shaving cream, toilet paper, paper towels, wet wipes/baby wipes, baby diapers, microwaves,

pots and pans, new sheets, pillowcases, band-aids, gauze, alcohol/disinfectant wipes, boxes of masks, hand warmers, flashlights, nail clippers, hairbrushes, shopping totes⁄bags.

Bethpage Federal Credit Union Relaunches “Difference Makers” B

An empowerment initiative for the youth

ethpage Cares, Bethpage Federal Credit Union’s charitable giving arm, announces the relaunch of Difference Makers, its youth empowerment initiative first launched in Jan. 2020, but then paused as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic.

Developed to empower young individuals to come together to support their local communities, Bethpage will provide mini grants ranging from $250 to $5,000 to individual students and student groups, ranging from the 5th grade through undergraduate college, who share their desire to develop a project-focused program to benefit the community.

“We want to invest in our children, the future leaders of our communities. Now that student activities have started to resume, it is important that we reinstate Difference Makers, which has the potential to make a big impact on many passionate young people,” said Linda Armyn, Senior Vice President, Bethpage Federal Credit Union.

Throughout the last two years, we have been able to support some grant applications with a few highlighted below: Syosset South Woods Middle School students and Jericho brothers, 14-year-old Ben Ellis, an 8th grader, and 12-year-old Aidan Ellis, a 7th grader, requested grant money from Difference Makers to install a summertime butterfly garden that can be turned into a sitting bench in the colder, winter months, when the flowering plants are dormant. With their grant money, and collaboration with the North Shore Land Alliance, Ben and Aidan were able to successfully develop and install their butterfly garden and planter/bench at the Wawapek Preserve located in Cold Spring Harbor.

Glen Cove resident, Elana Greim, a 17-year-old 12th grade student at Glen Cove High School, requested grant money for her Environmental Club, with the goal of implementing a school recycling program. With help from her Difference Makers grant, Elana and her club were able to purchase recycling bins for 115 school classrooms. Elana believes that it is more important than ever to create recycling programs to help combat global warming, and to help make the Earth a cleaner place, one step at a time.

August “Gus” Bresnaider, 18, who is currently a student at the University of Virginia, was an Eagle Scout with Troop 123 in Merrick and a 12th grader at Mepham High School when he requested grant money to improve a community garden at the Park

The Ellis brothers Ben, left, and Aidan, right, of Jericho recently received a grant from Bethpage Federal Credit Union’s Difference Makers program to install a butterfly garden and planter/bench at the Wawapek Preserve located in Cold Spring Harbor. Bethpage recently relaunched the mini grant initiative which empowers young individuals to come together to support their local communities.

With his grant money from Bethpage, Gus and his troop created new garden beds, including two wheelchair-accessible garden beds so that everyone could enjoy and take part in the upkeep of the garden. They also re-mulched the area and created a “Park Pride” sign on the front fence of the garden.

Bethpage encourages parents, mentors, teachers, family and friends to encourage the children in their lives to get involved in their local communities. To apply for a financial grant, visit Bethpage’s website at: www.bethpagefcu.com/community/volunteer. Students will be asked to submit a brief business plan, their budget, a timeline and the community impact it will provide.

“We want to effect change and know there are many ambitious young people today that do too, but just need some guidance and financial support. We are excited to support them in their efforts today and hope this experience helps them as they embark on their future successes,” stated Armyn.

Since 2002, Bethpage Federal Credit Union employees have volunteered more than 5,000 hours annually, supporting dozens of charitable organizations throughout New York. Bethpage invests in the community through large-sponsored events, volunteerism and charitable grants totaling over $2 million dollars annually.

Bethpage Federal Credit Union is a premier community financial institution committed to enriching the lives of its members, employees and the communities it serves for the past 80 years. Bethpage is the largest credit union in the Northeast Region, and the 14th largest in the nation.

As a not-for-profit credit union, Bethpage is committed to its members and the communities it serves. In addition to giving back to its members in the form of great rates and low fees, the Bethpage Cares program invests heavily in local, high-impact community programs that serve with an eye towards creating better communities through diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging.

Named a Forbes Best Place to Bank in New York, the fifth Best Company to Work for in New York State by the New York State Society for Human Resources Management, and a Glass Door Top Place to work for Small & Midsize companies in the US, Bethpage is a federally chartered credit union, available to people nationwide who open a $5 dollar membership account.

NORTH SHORE FIRST GRADERS VISIT CRADLE OF AVIATION MUSEUM As part of their Astronomy unit, all firstgrade students at the North Shore Schools visited the Cradle of Aviation Museum. The museum was only open to the North Shore first grade classes.

Director of Elementary STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics), Dr. Carol Smyth, said “The students saw a show in the planetarium and learned about the night sky which is what led humans long ago to wonder what is beyond Earth. They also looked at constellations, heard stories, and took space steps all while learning astronomy vocabulary. Then, they

explored the night sky with our favorite friends from Sesame Street in One World, One Sky: Big Bird’s Adventure.”

During the day, the students also visited many of the exhibits in the museum including the Hubble Space Telescope, Contemporary Aviation, Exploring Space, and the Jet Age. Thank you to the Cradle of Aviation Museum and all those involved for allowing our North Shore first graders to have such an exciting and educational day of learning about space, the earth, astronomy, and much more.

This class of first-graders learned about various jets, such as the Republic PS-504 Thunderjet displayed behind them.

Locust Valley High School varsity athletes visited the district’s elementary schools to read stories to the students in recognition of World Read Aloud Day on Feb. 2. The girls varsity track team visited Bayville Intermediate School, boys varsity basketball stopped by Ann MacArthur Primary School, girls varsity basketball read to students at Bayville Primary School and the wrestling team went to Locust Valley Intermediate School. At each school, the athletes split up and read to individual classrooms.

Locust Valley Intermediate School Assistant Principal Adam Javidi said students love having the high school athletes as guest readers. “The younger children look up to the varsity athletes and were excited to have them in our building,” he said. “The visit reinforces the importance of building connections through reading and shows the elementary school students that our high school athletes also make reading a priority.”

Kindergarten students in Magda Larounis’ class at Ann MacArthur Primary School brought storybooks to life as each young reader chose their favorite book and dressed as the main character of the story.

Ann MacArthur Primary School kindergarten student Alexa Ferraro was all in pink to look like her favorite book character, “Pinkalicious.”

These characters then partnered with a classmate to read their chosen book aloud.

From robots and princesses to superheroes and animals, the entire class celebrated reading.
