TOP STORY

We Are All Ukrainians Now BY FRANK RIZZO

frizzo@antonmediagroup.com

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

Port Washington Water District’s “Do It For Port” Water Conservation Campaign First Campaign Event to be Held Virtually on March 16th @ 7p.m.

s part of its “Do It For Port” water conservation campaign, the Port Washington Water District (PWWD) has organized a series of educational events ahead of irrigation season reaching its peak. These efforts, spearheaded by PWWD Commissioner Mindy Germain, aim to ensure residents have all the tools and resources needed to maximize water savings this spring and summer when the community’s water consumption spikes three-fold. During the initial kick-off event, being held virtually on March 16, 2022 at 7:00 p.m., residents will have an opportunity to engage with district officials as they learn more about where their water comes from, how it’s treated, why water conservation is more important than ever and how to minimize use of the community’s most precious natural resource. “‘Do It For Port’ is a central theme of this community. People rally together because we want Port Washington to always be the best place to live and raise a family,” said Germain. “Part of that is taking care of our drinking water and one of the best ways to

do that is by conserving.” “Our hope with these initiatives is for residents to come away with a better understanding of their own water usage as well as all the tools and resources the district offers to keep our drinking water of the highest quality,” said PWWD Commissioner Peter Meyer. The first three events planned for this education portion of the Do It For Port campaign are as follows: •March 16 at 7:00 p.m.-PWWD’s Capital Improvement Plan to Maintain High Quality Water: During this webinar, residents will learn about where their water comes from, how it is treated as well as updates to and intricacies involved in bringing new treatment facilities online. •May 4 at 7:00 p.m.-We Must Conserve:

Do It For Port-In celebration of National Drinking Water Week, residents are encouraged to learn about the District’s mandatory conservation requirements, the latest in water conservation tactics, and how to save both money and the environment while maintaining a green, healthy landscape. •May 11 at 4:00 p.m.-Empowering Youth to Be the Stewards of Port’s Drinking Water: Students and their parents are invited for an in-person event at the Port Washington Library for a fun and engaging conversation about protecting and preserving the community’s only water source for generations to come. Students will also learn about the Do It For Port certificate opportunity, which can be earned by participating in a water

conservation challenge around their home. In the fall, the district has plans to launch a collaboration with local partners to showcase different landscape design concepts that are beneficial to the environment. This will provide an opportunity for residents to learn about native and drought-resistant plants, conquering the rain barrel and more. Additional details about this part of the campaign will become available in the summer. “We’re excited to collaborate with residents over the next couple of months so we as a community can protect and preserve our most precious natural resource,” stated Commissioner David Brackett. Residents can register for these events at www.pwwd.org/conservation/do-it-forport-educational-events. Also, be sure to follow the PWWD on Facebook at www. facebook.com/pwwaterdistrict and sign up for the district email list at www.pwwd.org for updates on these events and all other things Port Washington Water District. —Submitted by the Port Washington Water District

New York Presidents: The Famous and The Forgotten, Part I BY JOE SCOTCHIE jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com

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.” Check back next week for the conclusion to our overview of Empire State Commanders in Chief.

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. —Garbarino (R–Sayville) represents the 2nd Congressional District

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.” Today, California Closets has 120 showrooms and more than 700 designers across North America.

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.

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

LIVING TRENDS from page 6B color combinations, but not individual colors per se. Color will be more vibrant in acid greens and medium-toned blues taking center stage. I sense metallic accents of gold and silver will be replaced with a touch of black which adds a level of sophistication to any room. The all-white kitchen has faded out to dark grey, ebony and shades of blue. People are less commitment-phobic and want to take chances and be different. European kitchens are incorporating open shelves with herb gardens lit by LED grow lights. Grandmillenial is becoming less grandma and more cool great aunt. Toss out the blue and white porcelain and incorporate more inspiration from your funky relatives world travels—caning, rope, rattan, Danish modern and Japanese in teak, light brown and cerused oak.

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.

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. —DEC

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Keeping to yourself is easy, though it’s not what’s best for you. Socializing grows you in all sorts of unanticipated ways. This week you’ll enjoy familiar people, but don’t be afraid to branch out. It’s the scary and exciting wild card that will ultimately sharpen you and open new opportunity.

A night at the opera Solution: 22 Letters

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.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There’s a shroud of mystery over a relationship, especially its future. This doesn’t have to cause anyone stress. The less you want and need out of the tie, the more lighthearted and playful you feel. Maybe it’s better that you have no idea where things are going. This is what makes it so exciting.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You pride yourself on concise communication. If you can’t be brief, you strive to at least be entertaining. And though you wouldn’t choose to ramble on to a captive audience, you are still willing to listen when people have trouble getting to the point. Your grace and social aptitude will earn you plenty of goodwill.

Section 1. Legislative Findings. T he Board of T rustees of the Village of Baxter Estates has determined that restricting certain uses and activity, including use as outdoor living space, on the roofs of single family homes promotes the health, safety and welfare of the Village and its residents. T he Board recognizes that the use of roofs for outdoor living space can adversely impact the neighbors and the community through visual and noise intrusions and intrusions into the expectations of privacy for the owners and occupants of such dwellings. T he Board notes that the predominant type of home in the Village’ s single family zoning district does not utilize ﬂat roofs, but rath-

er roofs that do not readily accommodate outdoor occupancy. T herefore, the Village has not previously addressed such a use. Recent construction in the Village involving flat roofs on single family residences has presented the issue to the Board, and has led the Board to amend the Z oning Code to restrict such use. Section 2. Authority. T his local law is adopted pursuant to the New York State Municipal Home Rule Law. Section 3. Article II, “ Residence A Districts,” of Chapter 175, “ Z oning,” of the Code of the Village of Baxter Estates, is hereby amended to add a new Section 175-18.2, entitled “ Restrictions on U se of Roof Area,” to be added immediately after the end of existing § 175-18.1, entitled “ Impervious Surface,” , to read in its entirety as follows: “ § 175-18.2 Restrictions on U se of Roof Area. Except as hereinafter provided, no open porch shall extend from the roof of any building, and no roof area on any building shall be used as habitable space or as outdoor recreational space or for any purpose that involves the presence of any person on such roof, except for construction, maintenance and repair purposes; provided, however, that nothing herein shall restrict the use for outdoor recreational space of any flat roof over a one-story garage that is attached to a two story building, or any open porch proj ecting from the outside wall of a building on the first or second story of the building.” Section 4. Effective Date. T his local law shall take effect immediately upon filing with the Secretary of State.

Town Announces 2022 S.T.O.P. Program Dates

orth Hempstead Supervisor Jennifer DeSena and the Town Board are proud to announce the dates for the 2022 Stop Throwing Out Pollutants (S.T.O.P.) events. The first S.T.O.P event will be held on Saturday, March 19 from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. at North Hempstead Beach Park’s North Lot. “Improperly disposing of dangerous chemical wastes could potentially contaminate our water supply, so programs like S.T.O.P. are essential to continue to ensure the town and our residents are responsible environmental stewards,” Supervisor DeSena said. “I’m proud that the town will once again offer this amazing program that offers our residents a safe, convenient and environmentally sound method of disposing their hazardous household waste.” The S.T.O.P. program offers Town of North Hempstead residents the opportunity to dispose of dangerous and chemical wastes that are too dangerous to dispose of with routine curbside pickups. Residents can return items such as aerosols, household chemicals, pesticides, disinfectants, fertilizers, bulbs, thermostats, rechargeable and lithium batteries, TV’s and computers. Latex and water-based paints, once dried

out (usually 24-36 hours after the lid is removed) can be placed in a trash bag and thrown out with your regular household garbage. Latex and water-based paints will not be accepted at the S.T.O.P. collection site. Oil-based paints, on the other hand, are considered hazardous, and will be accepted at any S.T.O.P. program. Residents may also bring their sensitive documents to the S.T.O.P. event for proper shredding and destruction to prevent identity theft. Any documents brought will be shredded on site by a document shredding company. There is a limit of six “Bankers Box” sized boxes or bags of paper per car, per day. For every 2,000 pounds of paper the Town recycles equates to 17 trees saved. Pharmaceuticals will not be accepted at S.T.O.P. events, however the Town will be collecting pharmaceuticals at several special events throughout the year. Please continue to check the Town’s website and social media pages for the latest information. The S.T.O.P. events will also have a clothing donation area. Gently used and working clothes, stuffed animals, electronics, toys, sporting equipment, shoes, books, small area rugs, bikes, scooters, luggage,

picture frames, table lamps, bolts of fabric, silverware, glassware, dishes and cosmetics will be collected. Participants must be residents of North Hempstead (no commercial vehicles will allowed) and need to show a driver’s license or other valid proof of residency. Only potentially hazardous household products and e-waste will be accepted. For safety reasons, residents also must remain in their vehicle while event staff removes items to be discarded. Please also leave pets at home so staff can safely remove items from your vehicle. Additional S.T.O.P programs will be held throughout 2022 including: Saturday, June 25 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Westbury High School, Sunday, Sept. 18 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at North Hempstead Beach Park

(North Lot), and Sunday, Nov. 20 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at North Hempstead Beach Park (North Lot). For more information on the S.T.O.P. program, please call 311 or 516-869-6311 or visit northhempsteadny.gov/stopprogram —Submitted by the Town of North Hempstead

Port Boys’ Basketball Falls Short Of Counties But Has A Promising Future LUCAS MILGRIM Student at Schreiber High School in Port Washington

fter last year’s season was shorter than normal, Schreiber’s Boys’ basketball team had a strong bounceback year. The Vikings were led by a strong group of seniors and young sophomore star Trevor Amalfitano. Seniors Christian Kitsantas, Ben Krefetz and Nick Sonnenklar headlined the All-Conference honors, while Amalfitano was named All-County. The boys’ long road ended with a tough loss to Baldwin in the Nassau County Semifinals. They came out of the gates fast, blowing out Great Neck South by 22 on opening night. In early December, Schreiber built on the strong start in the Manhasset tournament, placing second to the hosts after a thrilling double-overtime victory against St. John’s Prep. “Winning the first game in double-overtime gave the team serious hope for the season because it showed our ability to handle adversity because we rarely had the lead in that game,” said Krefetz. “Then, playing Manhasset and competing with them the way we did showed us we can compete with anyone.” Hanging with a tough team like Manhasset, especially while missing many players due to injury, proved Port would be a strong team this year. After the tournament and a postponed game, the boys had two weeks before their next game, a home win against Westbury. Then, they’d start league play in Massapequa, where the Vikings edged out a six-point

victory and took down Farmingdale at home to improve to 2-0. Syosset handed Schreiber their first loss of the year, but the boys bounced back and won their next two games against Freeport and Uniondale. They again lost to Syosset before winning two straight, sitting them at 6-2 with six games left before the playoffs. For the first time in the season, Hempstead would come to Schreiber and win a tough battle over Port, 45-49. The next game, another home matchup against Massapequa, was the closest and most exciting of the season. The game was tied with less than ten seconds left when Amalfitano got the ball, already having scored 35 of the team’s 70 points. He coolly crossed over and sidestepped his defender, launching a three-pointer to give the Vikings the win. Amalfitano did not doubt that he’d come up clutch, despite being one of the team’s youngest members. “I do this. I knew I’d rise to the occasion,” Amalfitano said in an interview with Port Vikings’ Jasper Abrahams. The win energized the Vikings down the stretch; they would go on to win four of

their next five games, only falling against Hempstead a second time. They finished with a 10-4 conference record, securing the fifth seed for the playoffs and setting up a third matchup against Hempstead. “[The] most important game of the season was against Hempstead. After losing the first two against them, we knew it would be personal,” said Krefetz. Taking down Hempstead at their home stadium would be Schreiber’s strongest win of the year, and they were prepared to put up a hard fight. Krefetz and Amalfitano powered the late surge to force the game into overtime. The two would continue to power the offense, combining for 40 points in what ended as a 75-69 win. Next, Schreiber would face off against an incredible Baldwin team at Hofstra in the County Semifinals. Baldwin entered the game at 19-0 on the season, and they showed off their strength early and often. Port’s season would end with a crushing 72-41 loss. Despite the disappointing end, the season was quite the opposite. Aside from the team’s strong performance and playoff victory, the outlook for next season is promising.

The combination of young talent and a new culture will make the Vikings a powerhouse in Nassau County. “[The] future is really bright. The younger kids are really good and play unselfish basketball,” said Krefetz. “I also think we left the program with a new culture that the young guys will continue with.”
