TOP STORY

The Fight Of His Political Life

BY FRANK RIZZO

E

frizzo@antonmediagroup.com

ven admirers admit that Governor Andrew Cuomo can be a bully, thin-skinned and vindictive.

You can now add “embattled” before his name.

The #metoo movement’s heightened sensibility just might topple the nation’s most powerful, famous and ambitious Democratic governor.

Cuomo’s future hinges partly on an investigation by two lawyers chosen

by New York State Attorney General Letitia James to look into charges of sexual harassment.

His former aide Lindsey Boylan, a Democratic candidate for Manhattan Borough president this year, claimed as early as December that the governor had been harassing her for years. Her accusation became more widespread on Feb. 24 and six more women followed with stories of their own. One, anonymous unlike the others, claimed on March 9 that the governor had groped her in the Executive Mansion.

U.S. Senators Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand on March 12 called for Cuomo to resign.

As of March 12, 59 Democratic members of the legislature have called for the governor to step down, as have 16 of the 19 Democratic congressmembers.

On March 7, Cuomo—who has maintained his innocence—firmly stated that he would not resign, and would only be removed by impeachment.

That was the sentiment he reportedly expressed in a phone exchange with the second most powerful person in state government, Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins. Soon after, she stated that Cuomo ought to step down as his leadership would be affected by the distractions of scandal and investigations.

The third member of the trinity that governs the state as “three persons in a room,” Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie, stopped short of calling for a resignation, but stated, “We have many challenges to address, and I think it is time for the governor to seriously consider whether he can effectively meet the needs of the people of New York.”

Lt. Governor Kathy Hochul, who stands to take over if Cuomo resigns or is removed, called for an “independent review” on Feb. 27. On March 9, she said in a statement, “With yesterday’s

This is Less than a year ago Cuomo was especially true in light of the impendriding high midway through his third ing state budget deadline, the need term and eying a fourth to surpass his to continue guiding the state through

father Mario. His daily coronavirus press conferences were must-watch television, and he drew admirers for his no-nonsense style of approaching the pandemic. He even wrote a book about his leadership in the crisis and earned an Emmy for his televised conferences.

Republicans and Cuomo’s opponents charged that his administration was hiding the true figures of nursing home deaths in a state that was the hardest hit by the COVID-19 disease.

This came after a Cuomo order that the homes must admit patients who had tested positive and forbid facilities to test prospective residents. The order was reversed under pressure on May 10, but critics contend that many died as a result.

Cuomo’s directive, under difficult circumstances at the beginning of a pandemic that even experts did not fully understand, had done little to dent his popularity, much less threaten his political future. The alleged mishandling failed to gain traction until the past couple of months, when the administration admitted that it had undercounted the number of COVID-19 deaths in nursing homes.

Then in quick succession came a series of events that have shaken the foundations of his power. Attorney General James said an investigation revealed that the administration undercounted nursing home deaths by as much as 50 percent. The FBI is also reportedly investigating the nursing home deaths. On Feb. 12, a Cuomo aide admitted in a call with state Democratic leaders that the governor had intentionally delayed releasing nursing home data due to fears of a federal investigation. Democratic Assemblyman Ron Kim of Queens revealed a threatening phone call from the governor.

Then came the string of sexual harassment accusations and the governor now finds himself fighting for his political life.

The polls reflect this. According to a March 8 report by the firm Morning Consult, Cuomo’s overall approval rating is down 11 points, to 52 percent since the nursing home scandal broke.

hen it was recently announced that longtime YES Community Counseling Center Executive Director Jamie Bogenshutz was stepping down from her position after 40 years, the nonprofit community-based organization didn’t have to look far for an heir apparent. Next in line is current YES Associate Director Adrienne LoPresti, who has been with YES since 1997—when she joined as an intern and then moved to full-time status after obtaining her BSW at Marist College and Master’s in Social Work from Adelphi University. For the Massapequa native, her appointment as executive director is the end result of a long transition period in which Bogenshutz made sure LoPresti was ready to take the reins thanks to the takeaways she was provided.

C

atholic Daughters Court #1690 has been busy at work helping veterans and celebrating life.

A collection spanning three-weekends in February to benefit veterans residing at the Northport Veterans Medical Center resulted in thousands of items donated by parishioners of St. Bernard’s Parish. Items of underwear for men and for women totaled 270 and 247 items for dental hygiene and care were collected along with 257 items for shaving including razors, shaving creams and gels and 132 hair care products. The collection also brought in hundreds of other items including soaps, detergents, pajamas, thermal pants and shirts and Petco gift coupons for service dogs.

Chairwomen Sally Cook and Jean Leviton delivered the items to Northport Veterans Medical Center in early March and were heartily thanked

by Chief of Voluntary Services Richard Kitson, who grew up in Levittown, and Assistant of Voluntary Services Jennifer Pohl. Kitson said that every item donated would go to a veteran in their facilities and commented on the generous history of giving by St. Bernard’s parishioners.

Village Of Great Neck Plaza Announces Shop Local/Dine Local Campaign

he Village of Great Neck Plaza is pleased to announce the kickoff of its Shop Local/Dine Local campaign, which Mayor Ted Rosen stated “is a key component of the Village’s campaign to support our local shops, restaurants and other food establishments in this difficult time.” Rosen continued, “The campaign will feature posters displayed in local shops, restaurants and other food establishments, lawn signs placed around the village and two banners affixed to the Middle Neck Road Bridge over the LIRR tracks.”

“I have lived in Great Neck Plaza for many years and have long been a devoted customer of our local shops and restaurants,” Deputy Mayor Gerald Schneiderman said.

“These establishments offer great products, delicious food, attentive customer service and great convenience to our local residents.”

Campaign had been planned in the fall of 2020 and its kickoff was pushed back to a time when it was anticipated that the impact of the pandemic would begin to lessen and that the weather would improve. The eye-catching, attractive Shop Local/Dine Local posters were designed

by Sam Marksheid, a professional graphic designer, who grew up in Great Neck Plaza

and who volunteered his services in designing the posters and banners. Marksheid is the son of Deputy Mayor Pam Marksheid who noted “I am very proud that my son could utilize his beautiful talents and skills to assist the village in which he grew up and which he loves very much in this most important project.”

The Shop Local/Dine Local campaign, is part of a

multi-faceted village program to support existing retail shops and restaurants and to recruit new businesses to the Plaza and to the Great Neck community. Rosen explained that “the village is forming a business advisory group which will be working with a local university to provide instruction to be paid for by the Village to local Village merchants in areas important to retail success, such as marketing, social media marketing, finance and customer service. The village is also planning a commercial landlord support group to help landlords be creative and resourceful in renting their commercial space. The Village has worked, and continues to work, closely with the Village’s Business Improvement District in providing various promotions for the Village’s retail businesses, restaurants and other food establishments. The Village’s Building Department Superintendent will continue to work closely

with our downtown merchants, as he did last spring, summer and fall to allow them to maximize available outdoor space for outdoor dining and merchandise displays.”

“In addition to supporting our existing merchants, the Village is seeking to recruit businesses to come to Great Neck Plaza as well as the greater Great Neck community,” Rosen said. “The Village has formed a working group with representatives of the Great Neck Chamber of Commerce and certain other government officials to develop strategies to recruit businesses to Great Neck and the Village will also seek to hire a professional downtown recruiter or advocate to bring in new businesses to the Plaza.”

“This many-sided approach the Village is taking should help our businesses and restaurants recover from this very difficult year,” Deputy Mayor Marksheid said.

March Business Of The Month: Madison Stone And Tile Design

W

ith a combined 40-plus years of experience in the tile field, Maria Dattolo and Jessica Merrick operate Madison Stone and Tile Design, Inc., located at 120 Glen Head Rd. in Glen Head. This location was chosen because the building reflects “old-world” architecture.

While the showroom was scheduled to open in February 2020, the pandemic moved their plans up. But that didn’t keep the duo, who met through

mutual friends in the industry, down for long. They opted for a soft opening.

“There is a need for a tile store in the area,” Merrick said. “We’re a resource for the community. We offer a variety of design services along with an extensive collection of stone, ceramic, glass, marble, porcelain and metal tile.”

Dattolo, a 35-year resident of Glen Cove, has worked in the commercial/residential tile industry for more than 20

years. She applies her Italian background of “old-world” artistry to all of her designs.

Merrick has worked in the tile industry for nearly 15 years and favors a more modern/eclectic design aesthetic—and is up for any design challenge.

Working on commercial projects has helped to put Madison Stone and Tile Design on the cutting edge of design, technique and innovative materials used by the trade.

Madison’s philosophy is

to value customer service and the importance of relationship-building.

Within the community, Madison Stone and Tile Design holds membership to North Shore Biz Network as well as the Gold Coast Business Association.

“People like to be ‘in this’ with other businesses,” Merrick added. “If we can help each other succeed, why not?

Make Way For The Osprey

PSEG Long Island cleans osprey nests to prepare for the raptors’ return

P

SEG Long Island is preparing for the upcoming osprey breeding season by inspecting known nesting areas, performing maintenance on the osprey cams it installed last year, and cleaning out debris and garbage in the nests located near the cameras in Oyster Bay and Patchogue.

Human garbage is hazardous to the birds. Many times, the osprey will gather garbage, such as plastic bags, fishing wire—and in this case, even a bungee cord with a large metal

hook—to build their nests.

Safe delivery of power for its customers with its commitment to being a good environmental steward, PSEG has installed dozens of new nesting platforms to deter the birds from nesting on equipment.

Ospreys instinctively seek lofty places for their nests, often choosing utility poles and transmission structures.

When ospreys build a nest on electrical equipment, it puts the nest in danger of catching fire, which can cause

significant damage and outages to customers, as well has harm to the ospreys. The birds are at high risk of electrocution, as their large wingspan can complete the circuit between closely spaced equipment or between wires.

PSEG has installed webcams at two of the nests safely relocated by line workers. Long Island is home to more than 400 species of birds, including the majestic osprey. Ospreys are large beautiful birds and a popular sight on Long Island.

From the 1950s through the 1970s, Long Island’s osprey population decreased and became endangered. The effort to build safe nesting sites on or near waterways has contributed to the rise in the population of osprey.

To view the work at the nest, visit www.youtu.be/ zFbNipM6ne0. For more information about osprey and to view live feed of the nests, visit www.psegliny.com/wildlife/ ospreycam.

Historic Mill At Cedarmere Will Come Alive Again

A

t the height of the Civil War, renowned poet, newspaper editor and civic leader William Cullen Bryant constructed a unique mill on his estate (in what is now Roslyn Harbor) to power a workshop, with tools such as lathes, grindstones, saws and grain-milling machines, as well as a pumping system to provide water to his property. With its picturesque Gothic Revival style and the fact that it was also built with a summer cottage on the upper level, it is thought to be the only surviving structure of this type in this country. The mill, which ceased operation in the early 1900s, replaced an earlier one from the mid-18th Century which was destroyed by a fire in 1849. The current mill was almost certainly designed by Frederick S. Copley, who lived in Roslyn at the time, and who was not only an accomplished architect, but an artist and a sanitary engineer and inventor.

“According our plans, Bryant’s 1862 mill will once

again be operational this fall, powering some of its original machinery and tools,” according to Tom Powell, Vice President of The Friends of Cedarmere, who is overseeing the restoration effort.

This project was made possible with $147,000 in grant funding from the Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation (www.rdlgfoundation.org), $130,000 from the Nassau County Environmental Bond Act, as well as private donations.

“Thanks to the combined efforts of The Friends of Cedermere and the County, we are making it possible for this beautiful and historic Mill to be preserved for the enjoyment of future generations,” Nassau County Legislator Delia DeRiggi-Whitton said.

John Dawson, the President of The Friends of Cedarmere stressed that “To achieve the complete restoration of the Mill, both inside and out, will attract many old and new visitors to Cedarmere, to watch the waterwheel function and view

the original equipment in the interior driven by it. This should broaden the support of the Friends of Cedarmere in its mission to preserve and educate The public on the life and times of William Cullen Bryant.”

“I am pleased that the county is helping revive this important piece of history, bringing economic benefits and enjoyment for residents and visitors,” Nassau County Executive Laura Curran said.

“I will continue to support efforts to restore Nassau’s historic gems, helping to preserve the past and build an even brighter future.”

“The Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation is delighted the restoration of the Cedarmere Mill links this site to a number of other historic mills still found on Long Island. Tracing our mills across the Island offers lessons in commerce, economic development, societal trends, community growth and technology. Mills and their stories are living history classrooms on many

levels,” Kathryn M. Curran, Executive Director of the Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation, said.

The Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation also recently provided a grant to the The Friends of Cedarmere to develop a long-range strategic plan that is helping the organization expand and become more self-sustaining and another grant to

reimburse the organization for insurance, utility and other contractual expenses necessary to continue operating during the pandemic.

The Friends of Cedarmere also invites people who wish to contribute to the project to do so through the donation page of their website at www. friendsofcedarmere.org.

Winter Olympics Competition At Rehab Facility

T

he pandemic has postponed, altered and canceled many sporting events worldwide, so staff members at Excel at Woodbury Nursing and Rehabilitation staged their own by organizing a Winter Olympics competition.

The staff at several “sister” nursing and rehabilitation facilities competed in events including an opening

ceremony that passed the Olympic torch, a nursing ace bandage wrap-off, a 100-ft egg and spoon race, therapy wheelchair races featuring the fastest therapy staff members, and a “Purell relay race, a timed competition involving 10 staff members passing and using hand sanitizer down a line.

“The Olympics was a great way to bring together residents and staff

alike,” said Stacey Altman, administrator for Excel at Woodbury Nursing and Rehabilitation. “It allowed us to have some fun and help rebuild morale within the building. The halls were alive with laughter and friendly competition.”

Each day of the week encouraged staff and residents to compete in a talent show and trivia contest, wear their best sweat suits to work, and to decorate residents’ doors. Facilities earned points for each event and task, and judges were brought in to

evaluate food preparation and baking skills as well as housekeeping talent.

Altman said, “It was amazing to see all the hidden talents come out and be celebrated.”

The winning facility that took the “gold” was Momentum at South Bay for Rehabilitation and Nursing; Silver went to Surge in Middle Island and Bronze was a tie, between Quantum of Middle Island and Excel at Woodbury for Rehabilitation and Nursing.

MTA Reverses Course On Recent Service Cuts

BY ANTHONY MURRAY

T

amurray@antonmediagroup.com

he MTA’s Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) service cuts couldn’t have happened at a worse time since Americans are still dealing with COVID-19 even though the economy is starting to slowly restart. Photos from rail riders posted on social media this past week depicting crammed train cars and platforms that left little to no social distancing amongst riders—with one photo showing a Penn Station train from Mineola— had elected officials and fellow Long Islanders outraged and concerned.

Due to the pandemic, the MTA needed to make cuts in order to stay afloat.

All LIRR branches were changed to “enhanced” weekend schedules during the weekday commutes. However, MTA officials gave plenty of warning that drastic cuts such as this one were going to happen back in November 2020 saying they would make cuts to the state’s mass transit system if Congress didn’t provide more federal aid. Luckily for the MTA, the Senate signed off on another relief package earlier this month that gave the MTA $6.5 billion.

After hearing of the chaos that happened on the trains, Nassau County Executive Laura Curran wrote a letter to MTA Chairman and CEO Patrick

The MTA will reverse its decision to cut service to riders starting March 29 to avoid overcrowding. This photo was taken pre-pandemic.

Foye urging him to reverse the service cuts immediately.

“As more and more residents are vaccinated and as our economy finally opens up, we need to encourage ridership back on the rails,” Curran said in her letter. “...Reducing service options at this critical juncture will have the negative consequence of discouraging rail communication and prolonging our economic recovery. Nassau County residents must be provided with

frequent, safe travel options to and from New York City.”

After hearing the feedback, the MTA said that on Monday, March 29, it’ll restore its previous timetable vowing that in the meantime it will continue to strategically add and lengthen trains where possible to meet evolving ridership levels, using new technology to monitor capacity on each car.

“Reducing train service as our economy reopens makes no sense, as

the LIRR must accommodate for social distancing as more residents get back to work,” Curran said in a statement once the MTA announced the reversal.

“I’ll continue to push the MTA as necessary to ensure Nassau residents have safe, reliable commute they deserve.”

Congressman Andrew Garbarino (R, NY-2) said he applauds the reversal.

“It is in the best interest of employees, riders and our community to have the timetable restored, and I am glad that the MTA and LIRR listened to our calls to ensure the safety of our constituents on their commutes to work,” he said.

Congressman Lee Zeldin (R, NY-1) added, “The MTA’s decision to reverse course on recent service cuts, which led to infrequent and overcrowded LIRR trains, is great news for riders and workers alike. New York is entering a critical phase of reopening and revitalizing our local and regional economy, and the MTA plays a vital role in getting us back to our way of life. Ensuring that commuters can return to work safely and efficiently, will help us emerge from the outbreak of coronavirus stronger than ever.”

Mineola Menu App Recognized As Winner In Congressional App Challenge The Mineola Union Free School District has launched a new app that was recently named a 2020 winner in the Congressional App Challenge.

The app, Mineola Menu, was designed and developed by James Nagler, the son of Superintendent of Schools Michael P. Nagler, Ed.D. It is currently being used at Jackson Avenue School.

Mineola Menu allows students to input their lunch choice every day, eliminating paper tallies. It has streamlined the process of ordering lunches, making it easier for students and more efficient for teachers.

Students simply open the app and choose the items they would like for lunch. Administrators are then provided with the orders for each student,

Chimney Fire In Mineola The Nassau County Police Department Public Information Office reports the details of a fire that happened on March 6 at 10:29 p.m. in Mineola.

According to police, a passerby observed heavy smoke coming from a chimney while walking his dog and notified police. Upon arrival, responding police officers Palmese, Accordino and Sgt. Ruhle observed an active fire coming from the chimney. Not knowing the extent of the fire, officers forced entry and assisted an 89-year-old resident who was sleeping inside. Officers removed the elderly male from the house to safety. No injuries were suffered due to the quick response of police and the Mineola Fire Department. The fire was contained to the chimney only and it was extinguished.

sorted by homeroom. Not only does the app cut back on using paper for orders, teachers no longer need to spend classroom time asking students to participate in lunch counts.

“Digitizing the lunch menu and student selections each day was a must for a district like Mineola, where we embrace innovation, efficiency and contributing positively to society by reducing paper waste. As both the parent of the app’s designer and the superintendent of the district benefiting from this app, I could not be prouder,” Dr. Nagler said.

The Congressional App Challenge is touted as the most prestigious prize in student computer science.

Its goal is to inspire students from every corner of the country to explore STEM, coding and computer science through hands-on practice. This year, more than 6,000 students registered for the challenge. United States Representatives publicly recognize middle and high school students

Proposed 2021-22 Village Budget The village kicked off budget work sessions Tuesday, March 9 with an overview of the 2021-22 Tentative Operating and Capital Budget by Village Treasurer Irene Woo. Building Superintendent Giuseppe Giovanniello and Assistant Recreation Superintendent Sandy Young presented their respective department’s operating and proposed five-year (2022-2026) capital plan summaries.

Village Administrator Ralph Suozzi noted the 2021-22 budget covers an 18-month window of time, in

the shadows of the pandemic.

Woo thanked Suozzi, along with her finance team, the department heads, finance chairman and Deputy Mayor Robert Bolebruch, as well as members of the Finance and Audit Committee for their guidance during the process.

The 2021-22 proposed expenditure budget totals $65.1 million. It represents a 0.57 percent ($370,000) decrease over the prior year. The tentative budget is again tax cap compliant, with a proposed 1.95 percent

tax levy limit increase. In fact, over the last six years, the actual property tax levy increase has been less than the amount allowed per the tax levy limit law.

“We would never be here today if it wasn’t for you,” Bolebruch said, as he complimented Woo and her team.

Major components of the 2021-22 expense budget ($65.1m) include salary, benefits and taxes ($37.2m); consulting and contractual services ($5.8m); contribution to capital projects ($4.5m); debt service ($4.3m);

contribution to the Library ($3.3m); and general liability insurance ($1.9m). Proposed capital projects represent $12.551 million.

According to Suozzi, the village is currently juggling 41 projects in various stages of completion, including the St. Paul’s abatement project and the vinyl covering for the tennis bubble, which have both been approved but are awaiting $2.6 million in bond resolutions.

Troiano Seeks His Old Council Seat

BY FRANK RIZZO frizzo@antonmediagroup.com

T

hanks to a political version of Democratic Party musical chairs, Robert Troiano of Westbury has been tabbed to run for his old 1st District council seat.

It is being vacated by Viviana Russell, who replaced Troiano in 2010. The district covers Westbury, Old Westbury, Carle Place and New Cassel.

The decision by North Supervisor Judi Bosworth to not seek reelection opened the way for Town Clerk Wayne Wink to run for the top post, while Russell has been chosen to try to replace Wink.

Troiano is a member of the North Hempstead Democratic Committee’s Executive Committee and also serves as director of special projects at the Nassau County Board of Elections, In addition, he is the president of the Westbury School District Board of Education.

“Was it always in the back of your mind to get back into electoral politics?” Troiano was asked.

“It was not at all,” he replied. “It only occurred because Viviana decided to run for clerk and created an open seat.”

Troiano reached out to Democratic Chairman John Ryan when contemplating running for the council seat.

“He was supportive from the very beginning,” Troiano related. “My wife [Sharon]

and I took some time to give consideration to it, and then we decided to go forward.”

“Why are you running?”

Troiano was asked.

“When I was on the town council beginning back in 2004 for six years, that was, I felt, one of the most beneficial times for the Westbury New Cassel community up until that time in the town’s history,” he replied. “I developed a very strong partnership with Wayne Wink, who was also a councilmember.”

The pair also both served at the same time as Nassau County legislators.

“I look forward to the opportunity to reignite that partnership to do new things for the Westbury-New Cassel community and the entire town,” Troiano stated.

Asked in what specific ways a trustee can aid his district, Troiano replied, “It’s always helpful to have a seat at the table. To weigh in on things going on. To have the opportunity to actively engage the administration in initiatives that I think are important to our immediate community, such as environmental justice and increasing affordable housing.”

“What sort of things can you do, given the economics and complexity of putting up affordable housing?” Troiano was asked.

He noted that prior to serving on the council, he was a member of the town’s Community

He added that there are still possibilities along Prospect Avenue and also within the interior streets of New Cassel to purchase deteriorated houses, to renovate them, and resell them at an affordable price to families.

“I was part of a team that worked on a revitalization of Robert Troiano of Westbury, Prospect Avenue, which was cited by Hofstra University former Nassau County legislator and North Hemp- as the best model of revitalization of a suburb in the stead councilmember, is back in the political arena. country,” Troiano stated.

He added, “An example of that is the location of a couple of sand mining operations along Grand Boulevard which create particulate matter that affects residents south and north of the operations. The town has been working with the owners of those properties for a solution to enclose the operations in a physical structure where the air would be filtered before being released into the atmosphere.”

He concluded, “As a councilperson I can continue the work that Viviana has been doing and continues to do.”

ST. HYACINTH’S CLINIC A MODEL FOR COVID-19 VACCINE POP-UPS On Thursday, March 4, approximately 500 Glen Cove-area residents—400 seniors and 100 additional eligible residents that work in our schools—received COVID-19 vaccines during a pop-up clinic at St. Hyacinth’s R.C. Church in Glen Head.

I applaud Nassau County Executive Laura Curran and the leaders of Northwell Health for their ongoing efforts to directly deliver

vaccines where the need is greatest.

Thanks to the collaborative efforts of community stakeholders, this pop-up was a well-run, multi-faceted event. Cognizant of the increase in food insecurity during the pandemic, we are all so grateful to Long Island Cares for delivering food boxes, which the Glen Cove Fire Department helped distribute to families in

need. I appreciate the Glen Cove Police Department’s generous donation of hand sanitizer and assistance with directing traffic and aiding those in attendance.

Most importantly, we would not have had such a successful day without having such an ideal venue.

We are all tremendously thankful to Father Daniel Nash for graciously opening St. Hyacinth’s doors for this

life-saving event.

As inoculation efforts continue to ramp up thanks to the arrival of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, I am hopeful that the success of this recent pop-up clinic will serve as a model for future vaccine distribution events in our area.

Helping Children With Grief During The Pandemic Last month, our country reached a devastating milestone: More than a half million Americans have died from COVID-19.

Losing a loved one can be devastating under any circumstances, but it’s especially difficult now, when we’ve also lost many of the traditions that bring us together in our grief, such as wakes, shivas and funeral services. Moreover, many were unable to say goodbye because of restrictions at hospitals and nursing homes.

In the pandemic era, more children and teens are grieving perhaps than at any other era in our history. Even if they haven’t personally lost someone, odds are that they have a friend who has, and it comes at a time when they’ve lost so much—school routines, graduations and a host of other activities.

While our instincts are to protect our children from pain and sadness, death is a universal experience in all our

It’s also important for them to know that you are sad too.

When you express feelings of sadness, it will make your child feel more comfortable expressing their own grief.

Younger children may not fully grasp the concept of death and the fact that their loved one is not coming back.

That’s one reason to use accurate terms when discussing the loss. Avoid saying grandpa Elissa Smilowitz “passed away.” Such vague terminology creates confusion.

It’s also helpful to bring up lives. As a parent or caretaker, it’s your job to help guide them fond memories of your loved through the often-complicated one. Focusing on the person’s life, not only their death, is a process of bereavement, but part of the healing process. how?

It was easy being green on Green Eggs and Ham Day, during which students brought in snacks to have during independent reading time. Crazy Hair Day was in honor of Cat in the Hat characters Thing 1 and Thing 2. The celebration concluded with “The Sleep Book” Day in which students wore their pajamas and read by flashlight.

Students and staff in the Hicksville School District celebrated Read Across America Day on March 2. Read Across America Day is a nationwide celebration to get both children and teens excited about reading.

The district’s elementary schools had the opportunity to listen to books being read virtually by guest speakers from the high school. Since Read Across America Day falls on Dr. Seuss’ birthday, Hicksville students also read some of the author’s classic stories.

Celebrations lasted throughout the week at Lee Avenue Elementary School. The school held its own Dr. Seuss Spirit Week, asking students to participate in dress-up days. Each day correlated with a specific Dr. Seuss book. For example, on March 2, in honor of The Cat in the Hat, students were asked to decorate a fun hat to wear.

Throughout the fun-filled week, the class was encouraged to dress according to specific themed days.

Each day in school, the students read books which corresponded to how they dressed for the day. Themed dress days included dressing in a silly outfit, dressing as an influential individual, representing their favorite sports team, representing their family’s culture and dressing for their future job.

Over the course of the week, the classroom housed many different characters. Students dressed as artists, celebrities, gymnasts and teachers.

They learned about the cultures of their peers as well. After completing their reading log during the week, students even had the opportunity to win great prizes. It was an exciting week filled with a love for literacy.

2021 Buick Envision:

Designed To Stand Out T

Striking new design, with first-ever Avenir and Sport Touring offerings

he all-new 2021 Envision strengthens Buick’s premium SUV-only lineup, with more of the design, connectivity and safety features that resonate with today’s highly-discerning customers.

Along with the recent launch of the Encore GX, the new Envision will help to expand Buick’s reach in the fast-growing compact SUV segment.

“The all-new 2021 Envision is a tremendous opportunity for the brand,” Global Buick and GMC Vice President Duncan Aldred said. “With strong, differentiated designs, and a combination of advanced technologies and premium appointments, it will stand apart in one of the industry’s most competitive segments.”

Building on the success of the previous generation, the new Envision is lower and wider, with proportions and styling that combine the expressiveness of a car with the practicality of an SUV. And, for the first time, the new Envision offers customers unique and distinct personas, including Sport Touring and Avenir.

Additional highlights include: · Buick Driver Confidence Plus

package: A suite of nine standard advanced safety and driver assistance technologies, including Forward Collision Alert, Front Pedestrian Braking1 and Rear Park Assist · Next-generation Buick infotainment system with the brand’s first available 10.2-inch-diagonal color touchscreen · Available Amazon Alexa integration, along with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto · A 2.0L Turbo engine and ninespeed automatic transmission with electronic shift control · Available all-wheel drive with electronically controlled twin-clutch operation · Available Continuous Damping Control suspension · Hands-free programmable power liftgate, standard on Essence and Avenir and available on Preferred

Distinctive Design

The 2021 Envision displays contemporary styling that is the most expressive of Buick’s sculptural design language.

“The new Envision has a more

athletic presence that is full of character,” Global Buick and GMC Design Executive Director Helen Emsley said.

The three trims—Preferred, Essence and Avenir—each incorporate specific design features. The Preferred and Essence trims have an available Sport Touring package that embodies a more agile appearance with darkened exterior touches and 20-inch wheels with a darkened finish.

All models feature LED headlamps and tail lamps and daytime running light signatures, as well as a welcome/walkaway lighting animation, which activates when using the key fob.

Expressive Interior

Envision designers had one overriding objective with the new SUV’s interior: Provide customers with a sense of reward in their everyday driving.

“The new Envision’s cabin is welcoming, with a comfortable and premium environment intended to make the driver and passengers feel like every excursion is an occasion,”

Global Buick and GMC Design Manager Rob Cameron said. “All of the elements are designed to celebrate what customers use the most on their drives today.”

At the heart of the Envision’s new interior is its driver-centric instrument panel, which is tilted toward the driver for a better, clearer view. The panel blends technology and convenience, including Buick’s first available 10.2-inch-diagonal infotainment touchscreen.

The all-new 2021 Buick Envision is on sale now, with a starting MSRP of $32,995 (including destination, excluding tax, title, license, dealer fees and optional equipment).

Buick vehicles offer sculptural designs, refined performance, modern interiors and thoughtful personal technologies. Buick’s award-winning customer service and sales experience, along with the Avenir trim, the highest expression of Buick luxury, are attracting new buyers to experience Buick’s unique approach to attainable luxury.

Here are a few ways to get the most out of your painting project.

Transform Any Room With A Fresh Coat Of Paint

Things Appear Bigger

A fresh coat of paint can really open up a room, space or wall, creating an illusion of more space, even if there really isn’t. Go lighter to open the room. Go darker to draw it in. Additionally, marks and scratches on the walls over time disrupt the flow of your eye over a space. A fresh coat of paint in the existing color, especially white or neutral walls, can help restore the continuity of the space.

eed to spruce up a room in your home, but don’t want to take on a huge renovation project or spend a ton of money? Paint it. Transform any room, space or wall in your home with a fresh coat of paint while keeping your expenses in check.

You’ll be surprised at how great a room could look. Enhance any space in your home, starting with a fresh coat of paint.

Add Character

Conversely, you can add some cozy character to your room as well. For example, one popular way to achieve this in just about any room is by creating a feature wall. Add a new accent colour on to the feature wall and decorate it how you please. This can break up a space, add some depth to your layout and of course, some character too.

Scene Change

Looking to update your living room from that 1970s vibe? You can easily achieve this with minimal alterations, along with peeling off that

old wallpaper and putting on fresh coating of paint to achieve that clean, modern look you want.

Freshen Up

If you do nothing to a room other than add on a fresh coat of paint, the difference you’ll see will impress you.

It can freshen and clean up

Gray is this year’s Pantone Color of the Year

Try for a contrast; go bold the entire space. If you have a bedroom that’s starting to look lackluster, or the colour in the dining room is starting to look a little passé, adding a fresh new coat of paint can give any room the atmosphere boost you’ve been waiting for.

Brighten Up

In addition to opening up the room, new paint can also brighten up the entire area.

Whether you have a window or not, the colour on your walls will always impact the amount of light that reflects

off the walls, causing it to be darker or brighter. If you’re looking to spruce up your bedroom and make it more inviting, try placing a lighter coat of paint on the walls to brighten up your space.

You don’t have to be an artist or a construction

tradesman to tackle your own interior paint job. While it might not seem like painting could make that big of a difference, a fresh coat of paint in the same color or even switching to a daring, bold, new color can give new life to any space.

DON M. BELCASTRO Don M. Belcastro, 69, of Oswego, New York passed away at the Oswego Hospital on February 28, 2021 with his loving partner, John Josh, by his side. Born in Roslyn, New York, Don grew up in Port Washington and had resided in Oswego since 1997. Soon after relocating to the area, Don formed many business and social relationships.

He genuinely loved the Oswego community. Don held Master’s Degrees in Marriage and Family Therapy and Social Work from Fordham University and Syracuse University as well as business degrees from colleges on Long Island. While he was successful as a therapist, counselor, and social work consultant in local agencies, he was best known for the work he did through his company, Realty by Design, and was respected for his unique ability to bring vision into reality. Don and John transformed many Oswego properties into structural and visible beauties. Don’s interior design talents were admired by his friends and much appreciated by his clients. Don was a lifelong traveler who loved experiencing the culture and observing the beauty of other countries. Italy was his favorite, and he felt fortunate to have visited it many times. Don is survived by his loving partner, John Josh, his sister-in-law Patricia Belcastro, several cousins, John’s parents Charles and Dolores, and John’s sisters, Janet, JoEllen, and Julie. Don was preceded in death by his parents John V. and Minnie (nee Nardiello) Belcastro, brother John, and several aunts, uncles and cousins.

A private service and burial was held at the Sugar & Scanlon Funeral Home, 147 W. 4th. St., Oswego. In lieu of flowers, donations in Don’s name to one’s favorite charity will be greatly appreciated.

lution: Some of the world's best locations

as destructive as the ghost of the path not taken. Don’t entertain that specter at all, not even for a minute. Assume you had good reasons for all of your moves, and that you’ll make even better ones from here.

Energy that feels like pining, longing or regret is a total waste.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You have dearly held values, but you’re also careful not to let your opinions harden into brittle prejudice that can’t flow nicely in the larger context. Harsh views are more likely to snap in the wind. Openness is lovely and strong, like the bendy branches of healthy trees dancing with the weather.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The social wheels turn just like every other wheel -- through changing points of elevation. Striving for higher status, admiring the top rungs, watching the rise of the new and the decline of the old guard... this is all part of the fun. The temptation is to take it all too seriously, but there’s power in a degree of detachment.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). A hobby will take your mind off of the demands of daily life, though it not necessarily in a way that’s stressfree. There’s a touch of drama in every world, even the ones that are supposed to be fun. The point is that it’s a different kind of drama than you’d typically deal with at work or home. It will expand you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When you’re swept up in the current of strong emotions, they feel like who you are. But emotions are not identity.

They are information -- feedback from inside you that can help you make the best decision. So don’t overly identify with a feeling. Hold yourself back as a witness to the flow.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your feelings surprise you. You may think they shouldn’t be as intense as they are, but that’s not within your control. Trust that it’s coming from somewhere, and instead of trying to stifle the surge, allow it. Make space for the energy to come through so you can examine it and choose your reaction.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re interested in learning new theories about how the world works, and you’re willing to entertain ideas a while before deciding how much sense they really make. Intelligence and openness are linked. Ultimately, it’s this kind of adventurous thinking that will attract bright minds and sharpen your own.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). No one is exactly the person they front to the world. It is only human nature to amplify the good, stand in the pretty light and put a flattering spin on it. You pride yourself on being as “real” as possible. Your luck will coincide with the degree to which you conform your behavior to the standards you publicly endorse.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Fantasies can be healthy. You’re game to take part in mental escapism as long as it stays within the bounds of entertainment. You’re careful not to base decisions, even small ones, on fantastic notions though. It’s a good rule of thumb this week: Any decision that is not based on reality is bound to be faulty.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The horse doesn’t have the option of taking off the blinders. But you, with figurative and metaphoric opposable thumbs, can take blinders on and off at will. Knowing when to do so requires wisdom, or just a good schedule. By the moon, now’s a “blinders on” time. Run your own race, ignoring all competitors.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). What gets you to the workout is putting on the clothes and then tying the shoes. The workout isn’t the ritual; getting dressed is. Getting dressed is the part that takes initiative and sets the rest in motion. Question of the week: How can you make it easier to do the action that will tip you toward your goals?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). New relationships are fragile things.

Gestures quick and careless can break them like a glass knocked from the table. If left untended, connections can turn unpalatable as a forgotten drink. This week, you will recognize relationships too full of potential to leave to the precariousness of chance.

Farmingdale HS Winter Athletes Complete Season

O

n Friday, Jan. 22, Governor Andrew Cuomo opened the door for high school sports classified as high risk to begin practice and play amid the coronavirus pandemic. Five teams from Farmingdale High School, girls and boys track, girls and boys bowling, along with boys swimming returned, but looked very different from past years due to COVID-19 protocols.

“Preparing for this season has been very different than past years, but we have an amazing group of athletes that are willing to overcome these new obstacles,” girls varsity track head coach Erin Garvey said. “It is not our usual season, but we are fortunate to be one of the only teams allowed to do this, so we are not taking it for granted.”

Winter track members had to wear masks at all times and the usual indoor meets were

“These boys have prepared and practiced for four years for their senior season,” boys varsity bowling coach Michael Marchitto said. “It is a shame that their parents, who have driven them to weekend and night practices, could not be in attendance for their matches.”

He added, “This has only served to motivate them further. They are a great bunch of young men.”

The boys varsity swim team completed an undefeated Boys Varsity Bowling dual meet season and secured virtually, using the honor sys- the Nassau Conference III held outdoors. Most winter tem.

Still, as one of only a few teams given an opportunity to compete this winter, the team wanted to make the most of their opportunity.

The highlight of the season came in a 60-40 victory over Bethpage that featured individual victories by Connor Maloney (100 butterfly), Zach Carle (200 freestyle, 100 breaststroke), Frank DeSantis (diving) and Aidan Horbach (500 freestyle). Maloney also led the Dalers to wins in all three relay events.
