TOP STORY

GOP Picks Zeldin To Challenge Hochul

‘A battle for the heart and soul of our state,’ candidate declares

BY FRANK RIZZO

T

frizzo@antonmediagroup.com

hey were not quite “All In for Zeldin,” but about 85 percent of the delegates at the state GOP convention favored the congressman from Suffolk County as their gubernatorial candidate in this November’s election.

Army Reserve Lt. Col. Lee Zeldin of Shirley, 42, a former state senator, has won four terms to New York’s 1st Congressional District.

“On November 8, we will save our state,” Zeldin promised in his acceptance speech and urged his party to reach out to all voters, not just Republicans and conservatives. In his campaign, he related, he discovered that people who normally voted for Democrats might be amenable to the Republican messaging on issues such as crime, school choice, taxes and regulations.

Alison Esposito, Zeldin’s pick for Lt. Governor, also got the nod. She drew on her experience with the NYPD, where she commanded a precinct, to bash the cashless bail policy passed by the Democratic-controlled legislature, tying it to the rising crime in her city.

The Garden City Hotel and the Nassau GOP hosted the convention, in a nod to Chairman Joe Cairo’s leading the party to county-wide victories last November, as well as capturing the North Hempstead supervisor’s seat for the first time in decades.

Local pols took leading roles, with former Congressman Peter King, North Hempstead Supervisor Jen DeSena, Comptroller Elaine Phillips, Town of Hempstead Councilman Anthony D’Esposito and County Executive Bruce Blakeman all speaking or giving nominating speeches. County Legislator Laura Schaefer of Westbury sang the National Anthem.

“This is going to be a great year for the Republican Party,” King asserted, promising November’s outcome will send a message to Joe Biden and to Kathy Hochul. “The people of the state of had enough of left-wing progressive politics. We want to stand with the police, stand with the firefighters, stand with traditional values, stand with parents. We’re going to get...everyone coming together to speak as one voice that we’ve had enough of the intolerance of the left, the propaganda of the left, the crime and disorder which is

stronger than ever,” Zeldin said. “We are unbeatable in a year that will be the biggest Republican wave of our lifetime. I ask all New Yorkers, regardless of whether you’re a Republican or Democrat, join Team Zeldin and this entire ticket of candidates because you’re going to want to be a part of this.”

Long Island Officials Call On Biden Administration To Shut Down Russian Estate

n Saturday, Feb. 26, Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman made an announcement in front of the Killenworth mansion gates in Glen Cove regarding Russian troops invading Ukraine and insisting for the removal of residents within the compound.

“We are here today because of the grave situation in Ukraine,” stated Blakeman, whose grandparents migrated from Odesa, Ukraine. “When you look at the people, the courageous Ukranian people on television, and you see how they long for freedom and how they’re willing to sacrifice their life for freedom. It reminds us of all the battles and struggles that this country has gone through.

San Francisco Board Attacks New York History

BY JOE SCOTCHIE jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com

B

eing an abolitionist is not enough.

Neither is being a president of the United States, including the man who led America to victory in World War II. That was nearly the case of such New York legends as Theodore Roosevelt and Franklin D. Roosevelt, plus Roslyn’s own William Cullen Bryant in the San Francisco school board controversy, one that has garnered enormous nationwide coverage.

In January 2021, that school board made the news when it renamed no less than 44 public schools in the district. That included now-familiar targets: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Franklin D. Roosevelt, William McKinley, Herbert Hoover, Francis Key Scott, Paul Revere, James A. Garfield, Daniel Webster, Robert Louis Stevenson, plus the once-popular California author John Muir, Junipero Serra, a Spanish priest who founded missions across California and the state’s senior senator, Dianne Feinstein. Also temporarily renamed was a Roosevelt Middle School. “[No] one knew whether it was named after Theodore Roosevelt or Franklin Delano Roosevelt,” wrote the journalist Byron York. “If the targeted president was in fact Theodore Roosevelt, the San Francisco board scored a hat trick of sorts — canceling all four U.S. presidents depicted on Mount Rushmore.”

The 2021 vote among school board members was 6-1 in favor of the wholesale renaming.

When a school named for Abraham Lincoln was also targeted, the board clearly went too far. That change along with a plan to eliminate testing for acceptance at an elite public school, one named for James Russell Lowell,

William Cullen Bryant sent San Francisco parents into action.

Three school board members were subject of a recall vote that proved to be overwhelmingly successful.

Buried in all this was that little Roslyn was also targeted. Not the name of the village, but its most famous literary figure. A public school for William Cullen Bryant too, was renamed in the January 2021 purge.

The Roslyn News asked local officials to comment on the culture war against the unsuspecting Bryant.

“It is a shame the people in San Francisco do not appreciate Bryant’s positive contributions to American history,” said Tom Powell, vice president of Friends of Cedarmere. “Bryant had many accomplishments in his lifetime. He was America’s first poet of renown, and its most famous poet for many years. He was largely responsible for the movement to create Central Park and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. He was the muse, through his poetry and friendship, of the artists, including Thomas Cole and Asher B. Durand, who created America’s first school of painting, the Hudson River School. His love of

Bryant Elementary, safe for now nature as expressed in his poems and through his other writings, was one of the early influences in the birth of the conservation and environmental movements in America. He was also known for his support for the right to unionize and frequently supported the rights of immigrants.”

Why Bryant? The man used his platform as editor of The New York Evening Post to make a name for himself as a leading abolitionist. Bryant was so prominent that he was chosen

by New York Republicans to introduce the generally unknown Abraham Lincoln to an audience at Manhattan’s Cooper Union Hall. The Feb. 27, 1860 speech launched Lincoln’s ultimately successful presidential run that year.

Secession, Fort Sumter, the Emancipation Proclamation, a Union victory in the Civil War----not to mention Lincoln’s tragic end---lay ahead. It all began at Cooper Union. And William Cullen Bryant was there.

The name change for Bryant’s San Francisco institution did not receive much publicity. Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and the two Roosevelts are household words. In comparison, Bry-

ant is forgotten. Indeed, his books of poetry are out of print and he no longer has much standing in the American canon. Bryant was more than a poet, as his newspaper career attests. With Cedarmere, the Bryant Viaduct, Bryant Park in Manhattan and Bryant High School in Long Island City, the man isn’t forgotten in Roslyn or the New York City area. You can be sure that San Francisco school board members have never read Bryant’s poetry and his Lincoln introductory speech. Such members probably aren’t even aware of that once-famous address.

Meanwhile, Jefferson and Theodore Roosevelt continue to take a beating.

In recent months, a statue of Jefferson was removed from New York City Council members and an equestrian statue of Roosevelt, located in front of the Museum of Natural History, was removed and relocated to little Medora, ND. Unlike San Francisco parents, we must add that New Yorkers did not fight back against those removals.

Online Money. Power. Sex. Family. These

conflicts propel the world’s greatest novels. They seared the pages of The Golden Bowl by Henry James, when it was published in 1904 and they inflame Dinitia Smith’s retelling, The Prince, creating a modern classic with twists and turns that even James couldn’t imagine. Smith, a multiple award-winning former New York Times reporter, uses the modern equivalent of the glittering high society setting of the Golden Age to tell the story of a father and daughter and the prince who comes between them. Set partially on Woodford Island, based on Gardiners Island off the coast of East Hampton, The Prince reconstructs the claustrophobic tension of the original, while exploring the four central relationships with a fresh, modern gaze. Entangled in a complex web strung between love, duty and desire are Emily the happy, freshfaced and rather clueless daughter of enormous wealth, and her worldlier friend, Christina, who has gotten ahead on her sense of style and stunning beauty.

Wantagh Fundraising Scam

t has come to the attention of the Wantagh Fire Department (WFD) that an organization called the Volunteer Fire Alliance based out of Houston, TX, has been soliciting funds by mailing residents a flier titled “2022 Annual Fund Drive.”

The WFD wanted to inform residents that this organization is NOT affiliated with the Wantagh Fire Department nor does the department receive any support from them.

Sadly, this organization sent this mailing at a time when the WFD is in fact beginning the process of its Annual Department Fund Drive. The WFD humbly asks residents to support them by donating directly to them by

responding to the flier being sent out by the Wantagh Fire Department in the mail. All monies collected by this method go to support the Wantagh Fire Department, its members and many local organizations and student scholarships right here in the community.

If you receive a mailing from anyone other than the Wantagh Fire Department and have any doubts you can go to the WFD website, which is www. wantaghfd.com and donate safely online or send a message by clicking on “contact us” and someone will get back to you.

Congratulations on your newly sodded lawn. If you are like most homeowners, you have entered the “now what?” stage. You’ve just made a significant investment and want to do everything possible to have your new lawn root down and establish quickly. That attitude is terrific because the manner in which you nurture your new sod during its first six weeks is critical to its future health and appearance. Taking the right action steps in new sod care promises to pay long-term dividends.

Learn how to care for new sod below.

FERTILIZATION

Fertilization is important to a new lawn. This fertilizer box consists of a state-of-the-art liquid fertilizer specifically designed to help lawns establish a sustainable root system.

New lawns are working hard enough to establish roots. Fertilizer provides lawns with the right amount of phosphorus and other nutrients the grass roots need to establish and thrive.

systems, this requires a 20-minute cycle. Take rainfall into consideration and modify the irrigation schedule to save water (and money) and to not over water the lawn.

Monitor the lawn regularly to make sure that it’s not drying out. Check the edges of each piece as well as the overall perimeter of the lawn as these are the most susceptible to drying out. Provide supplemental, targeted hand-watering with a hose—especially throughout the first 14 days.

MOWING

“When can I mow?” is a common question for all new lawn owners.

Mow as soon as the lawn has put down sufficient roots, such that one will have some difficulty pulling up individual pieces of sod. Quality sod WATERING laid during the active growing season During the first nine days, water that has received proper care and twice a day—once in the morning nutrition should be able to be mowed and then again in the evening. On day 10, reduce the watering schedule between 13–15 days after being laid.

When mowing, be sure to set the to once per day.

Regeneron STS Scholar Named At Bethpage High School

ethpage High School senior Aurrel Bhatia has been recognized as a Regeneron Science Talent Search 2022 Scholar. The prestigious honor is also a landmark for the school, as Bhatia is the second Bethpage student to achieve this recognition since the inception of the school’s science research program in 2011.

“It was just incredibly exciting when I found out,” Bhatia said. “To be the second person in this district is especially meaningful, because I think it carries signs of progress and I think it’s a great step towards the right direction in our district.”

According to its website, the Regeneron STS (formerly the Intel STS) is a program of the Society for Science and the Public that recognizes and empowers the most promising young scientists in the U.S. who are creating the ideas and solutions to solve the most urgent challenges. This program is the nation’s oldest and most prestigious pre-college science competition

for high school students. Each of the 300 scholars received a $2,000 award from Regeneron, with a matching donation to his or her school.

Scholars were selected from 1,805 applications received from 603 high schools across 46 states, Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and eight other countries. Scholars were chosen based on their exceptional research skills, commitment to academics, innovative thinking and promise as scientists and hail from 185 American and international high schools and home schools in 37 states, China, Switzerland and Singapore.

“Regeneron is an incredibly prestigious competition, so I’m very lucky to be a part of the group of people who have this designation,” Bhatia said.

Bhatia said she spent most of her freshman and sophomore years studying machine-learning and deep-learning algorithms and applied them to study climate. Through her research, she discovered that there are roughly 850 million people worldwide

(Photos courtesy of the Bethpage Union Free School District) who suffer from food insecurity. She realized that while there is enough food for everyone in the world, she believes that the systems in place are not productive enough. Bhatia felt that current irrigation systems are inaccurate, so she sought to create a soil moisture prediction system and implement that into a decision support system. Bhatia submitted her project, “Utilizing a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) Machine Learning Algorithm to Create Soil Moisture Prediction Models and Improve Water Productivity in Southern California.”

“I figured if there’s an automated way that we can determine how much soil moisture is in the ground at a particular moment in time, we can see how much water needs to be applied to meet the irrigation field goals,” Bhatia said. “Ultimately, we could create crops that don’t waste excess water.”

Bhatia was selected for an internship at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory last year. As one of the lab’s “Partners for the Future,” Bhatia is conducting sleep research through computational neuroscience at Cold Spring Harbor’s Engel Lab. She is also a member of her school’s Math Olympiads Team, the Tri-M Music Honor Society, the Ethics Debate Team, the marching, concert and jazz bands, the chamber orchestra and the Philosophy Club, among other groups. Bhatia credited Chris Pollatos, the district’s science director, for

believing in her.

“In addition to students’ research, Regeneron is looking for the type of person who works hard, perseveres and someone who is a good role model in their community,” Pollatos said.

“Aurrel definitely checks all of those boxes. We have a great district and a great group of students who inspire students to reach their dreams.”

Additionally, Bhatia was a student at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, in which she took part in the Brookhaven National Labs Gifted Math Program, conducted in collaboration with the Museum of Mathematics. She is also a senior mathematics editor for the Young Scientists Journal, where she managed a team of junior editors, assigned articles, facilitated communication between editorial team and upper-level management, and determined scientific accuracy of articles.

“She’s just an incredible young woman who is so talented, and she doesn’t know her full potential,” said Bhatia’s science research teacher, Nicole Dulaney. “I’ve learned so much from her myself and I know that other students learn a lot from her as well.

I just can’t wait to see all the wonderful things she’s going to do after high school.”

Bhatia said she plans to study applied mathematics in college.

The contest, which was in partnership with Mission Electric, Drive Electric Long Island and Greater Long Island Clean Cities, asked drivers of chargeable electric vehicles to create short videos sharing their car models, as well as their charging procedures, mileage range, the amount of time they had been driving an electric vehicle and their greatest inspiration behind the purchase.

The Huang family’s nearly two-minute long video was entirely written, directed and edited by their son Princeton, while his father assisted during filming.

“Most of the time I film on my own, because I film vlogs,” Princeton said.

“I’m basically my own director and I’m just lucky that my parents are willing to humor me and help me out with my exploits.”

“Well, it came as sort of a surprise considering I submitted in October,” he chuckled. “I don’t believe I found out I won until January or February, but I was ecstatic. It was definitely a welcomed surprise, since all of the

dedication I put into the video and passion I have for the car showed.”

The contest ran at the end of last year and received hundreds of submissions from car owners across Long Island. PSEG promoted the event as a way to encourage Long Islanders to cut greenhouse gas emissions caused by transportation, which contributes to poor air quality, high asthma rates and various environmental impacts.

In Princeton’s case, traveling to and

from classes as a junior at New York City’s Columbia University is made much easier with his family’s first electric vehicle, which he highlighted in his video contest submission.

“The electric car is very relaxing to drive in the city,” Princeton assured.

“It’s also very convenient and easy to switch between the gas and electric motor when navigating quiet side streets or busy highways.”

When discussing the car’s best feature, however, Princeton recalled a fond memory he made last year.

“My family and I took a 2,000-plus mile trip in our new electric car,” he smiled. “In December, we drove to Atlanta and back. It was a great bonding experience and a good opportunity for the car to show its strengths, while also bringing us together and across multiple state lines.”

Princeton is the contest’s youngest winner and says he will use the prize money for school-related necessities.

The Huang family’s video, as well as the other five winning submissions, may be viewed on PSEG Long Island’s website.

Meet The Village Of Mineola Election Candidates

that it has been for the last 160 years. We’re invested in this village. I’ve been living in this village for about 45 years.

My running mates have also been in this village for decades and decades. We all raise our families here. I work here. I live here. My children go to school here. Janine Sartori’s children go to school here. Jeff Clark’s children went to school in the local schools. We obviously have our entire lives invested in this community and we want to make it the best possible it can be for ourselves and for our community.

jcorr@antonnews.com

C

hanges are coming to the Village of Mineola as the March 15 village election nears.

Mayor Scott Strauss will not be seeking re-election, and Deputy Mayor Paul A. Pereira is running for the mayoral seat. Running alongside him is current Trustee Janine Sartori and Jeffrey Clark, who has years of community service from serving as chief of the Mineola Fire Department and president of the Irish American Society of Nassau, Suffolk and Queens.

Also running is Village Justice Scott Fairgrieve, who was elected in 2020, and is now seeking a fouryear term as village justice.

This election is uncontested.

Village Justice Election

Village Board Election Pereira has lived in Mineola for more than 40 years and has served on he village board as trustee, and most recently, deputy mayor, for almost 13 years. Sartoti has lived in Mineola for 17 years and she served on the board of zoning appeals for four years before being appointed to the trustee position by Strauss at the end of 2020. Clark has lived in Mineola for 35 years and has spent much of that time in community service. All three candidates are a part of the New Line Party.

Mineola American:

What have you been most proud of during your years of service?

Pereira: Probably what I am most proud of is that we’ve continued to be fiscally responsible. Our Moody’s Rating has been upgraded several steps since I’ve been on the board back in 2008.

We are currently at a double A2 Moody’s Rating, which I think is excellent. We are being good stewards of our

Trustee Janine Sartori, left, Deputy Mayor Paul Pereira and Jeffrey Clark are running as the New Line Party. (Photo courtesy New Line Party) fellow resident’s tax-paying dollars. I am also proud of the fact that we’ve been continuing to invest heavily in our infrastructure; our water, our sewer, our roads.

Sartori: The biggest thing I’ve been doing through the tenure is really speaking to more residents and hearing what they love and what they don’t love about the village.

I represent everyone now, so I really need to understand what everybody would like to see.

Mineola American:

What are your goals if elected/re-elected?

Pereira: My goals are to continue to invest in our infrastructure. We have several projects that are currently underway that the current Mayor Scott Strauss has started, so namely our new water

department headquarters, which is now on Westbury Avenue and should open in a few months. We are rehabillitating several of our new wells and that obviously is very costly, but very important. We also have significant work on our sewers... We are in the beginning of building a brand-new firehouse for our volunteer fire department.

Those are large capital improvements. Those are large undertakings, so there’s a lot that’s going to be happening in the village. We still have the third track. Obviously that is not our project, but the [Metropolitan Transit Authority] and the Long Island Rail Road will hopefully be bringing that to its conclusion at the end of this calendar year.

Sartori: I think to really finish the infrastructure

projects that are on our plate is my first goal... The second priority would be to continue focusing on the downtown and fill some vacancies and make it a thriving place for our residents to go to.

Clark: This is a critical time in the village with downtown development and revitilization and I want to be a part of that. I want to make sure that Mineola is treated right and keeps it charm and that we don’t get overdeveloped. My goal would be to maintain the village suburban way of life and make sure that our parks continue to be the top quality parks they are.

Mineola American:

Anything else you’d like to share?

Pereira: We are going to continue focusing on making Mineola the great community

Fairgrieve has been a Mineola resident for over 40 years and has been found “well qualified” by the Nassau County Bar Association, has published more than 300 decisions and is an adjunct professor at Long Island University teaching business law.

He has been a full-time judge for 20 years in the Nassau County District Court and he was elected as village justice in 2020.

Mineola American:

What inspired you to be a judge?

Fairgrieve: I like working with people and resolving problems. I also like researching the law and writing opinions. I like writing.

Mineola American:

What do you bring to the village?

Fairgrieve: I will continue to be fair and impartial.

I treat everybody’s case like it’s the most important case in the world, no matter what amount. And I show great respect to everybody.

Garden City Candidates State Their Case

BY JENNIFER CORR

jcorr@antonmediagroup.com

T

he Community Agreement Party and the For A Better Garden City Party are facing off at the upcoming Village of Garden City trustee election on March 15. In-person voters will appear at St. Paul’s Field Home to vote at the polls that will be open from noon to 9 p.m. and the voters will have the option to choose up to four trustees to serve a two-year term.

The Community Agreement Party

The Community Agreement Party, according to its website, has represented the residents of Garden City since the village’s 1919 founding. Their platform ranges in topics from addressing issues concerning the water supply and traffic safety, the fire department and St. Paul’s, an abandoned school. The Community Agreement Party also promises to work in maintaining the aspect of village governance that includes a robust Property Owner Association (POA) and trustee system and denying political parties from running the village.

According to the campaign candidates, the POA is a place where residents can go with issues, complaints or questions about their community.

The POA then takes those concerns to the mayor or a trustee. POAs have also been historically responsible for soliciting, vetting and nominating candidates for positions on the village board, board of education, library board or any other village commissions.

The Community Agreement Party believes it should stay this way.

The candidates running in the Community Agreement Party are Eastern candidate Judy Courtney, Central candidate Tracey Williams and Estates candidate Michael Daab.

Courtney, lifelong resident of Garden City, has more than 20 years of experience in human resources. Courtney has been active in volunteering, serving as a member, director, vice president and president of the Eastern POA. She has volunteered for virtually almost all the committees through the

POAs. When asked what she would like to see change, she said she would like to see the community move away from emerging political parties and divisiveness. To make difficult decisions, both in terms of finance and the future of the village, Courtney said a divided board would create an ineffective team.

Williams grew up in Garden City and returned to the village in 2006, first living in the Mott section and then settling in the Central section, joining the Central POA Nominating Committee. For the past 17 years, Williams has worked in specialty hospital sales. When asked what her goals would be and what she would like to see change, she said there are key issues the public wants to see addressed in a transparent and proactive way. A way to bring that to the public, she said, is a “...2040 type committee” where members would start looking at how the town needs to be thought of for the next 10 to 25 years in order to maintain safety and quality of life.

Daab is a litigation partner in the Garden City office of Berkman Bottger Newman & Schein and has practiced in the fields of family and matrimonial law for more than 23 years. He is also trained in conflict mediation and collaborative law. He has been an active member of the Estates POA, having served as a director and on the nominating committee.

When asked what his goals would be and what he would like to see change, he said he’d like the village to be proactive instead of reactive. He said he

would continue the tradition of attending POA meetings as a trustee so he can communicate with residents and have their needs met.

among other local volunteer opportunities. During her tenure, Carter Flanagan said she has noticed an increase in community engagement, which led to local action like the temporary and seasonal ban on leaf blowers. If re-elected, she said she would continue to work on improving communication between the The For A Better community and the village.

felt “monster poles” being installed by the Metropolitan Transit Authority with no opposition from the village could permanently damage parts of the community. There are currently 11, he said, and the lighting the poles produce “...keep residents up at night.”

Water quality and St. Paul’s are key issues, he said, and it is expected there will be a referendum later this year on whether or not people want to adopt the proposed use that’s been put forward by the St. Paul’s Committee or to demolish the main building.

Marciano has an extensive business career working at companies like JPMorgan Chase & Company and Deloitte & Touche, LLP. Along with coaching local teams, Marciano has volunteered to help the village with his business insight. When asked what his top areas of concern are, he spoke about a parking lot placed at the end of a dead end street called Raymond Court. He believes the village should have spoken to the people on the street to hear their concerns, such as how increased traffic or vehicle speed could pose dangers to young children living there.

He said he wants to ensure there is open dialogue between residents and trustees, so all can be heard.

New Hyde Park Chamber Celebrates New Leadership

BY JENNIFER CORR

I

jcorr@antonnews.com

t was surely a celebration at the 2022 Annual President’s Gala on March 2 at The Inn At New Hyde Park where the president, officers and directors were installed to the New Hyde Park Chamber of Commerce.

The event was well attended by members of the New Hyde Park Chamber of Commerce, local dignitaries like North Hempstead Supervisor Jen DeSena and residents of the community. The event hall, lit up by chandeliers, was lined with raffle items donated by businesses. Proceeds from the raffles went right back into the community.

Officers beginning their terms of leadership for the New Hyde Park Chamber of Commerce included President Cheryl Fajardo, sworn in by DeSena; First Vice President Donna Pagano, Second Vice President and Secretary Saveeta Barnes, Third Vice President Larry Armstrong and Treasurer Richard Guilfoyle, all installed

by Nassau County Legislator and Presiding Officer Richard Nicolello; and board of director members Antonio Petraglia, Channi Singh, Dean Lykos, Meghav Parikh, Mark Laytin and Ron

Shapiro, all sworn in by Village of New Hyde Park Mayor Christopher Devane.

Past New Hyde Park Chamber of Commerce President Jeanette Frisina, standing in front of the crowd at a podium, remarked that Fajardo not only runs a business in town, but that she’s also lived in the community for the past 30-years, meaning she serves the town both personally and professionally.

“Cheryl has a really giving nature and is always volunteering and stepping up to the plate to do what needs to get done,” Frisina said. “In fact, some of you may recall on the Zoom meeting when I introduced her as the new incoming president, I said she has three words that she always repeats and it was ‘I’ll do it.’”

Her nickname, Frisina added, is Cheryl “I’ll do it” Fajardo.

After Frisina called Fajardo up to the podium to say a few words, Fajardo reminisced on all that was accomplished over the recent years, including providing Personal Protective Equipment and rapid tests to local businesses, donating more than 2,000 pounds of food to local food pantries and celebrating new businesses with ribbon cuttings.

Cherry Lane Kindergartners Celebrate Author

indergartners at Carle Place’s Cherry Lane Elementary School completed their first Tilles Center Cooperative Experience with “A Celebration of Mo Willems.”

Classes dedicated the day to recalling his books and taking “a ride” in a grade level bus tour of Cherry Lane.

The school has participated in the Tilles Center Cooperative for several years. For the program, the center sends an artist in residence to work with the students and teach them about theater through experiences based on different works of literature.

This year’s book was Don’t let the Pigeon Drive the Bus. The culminating event is students going to the Tilles Center to see a production based on the literature studied. However, this year’s visit was canceled due to COVID-19 so the school made its own version through the grade level bus tour. This included school Principal Lauren Moriarty playing the Pigeon, while Tilles Center residence artist Oya Bangura choreographed the dance.

The Joys Of Tuna Loaf As Fred Rogers of Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood once said, “Often when you think you’re at the end of something, you’re at the beginning of something else.” This quotation perfectly captures the essence of retirement and the start of something new.

Retirement, that time when one leaves a job and ceases to work, is something that most strive to achieve.

My husband was blessed to be able to retire in 2020, which made him one happy camper. We still have the paperwork on our bulletin board that states, “I’m done!

Forever!” As the door to employment closed, the window to freedom opened. The lesson to be learned is how to spend one’s freedom so it fulfills and adds to the flavor of life.

Upon retirement, Hubby has found several things to do around the house.

This is a man who can whip up a Thanksgiving dinner like nobody’s business along with sides and a dessert without so much as breaking a sweat. His food is scrumptious and I think he knows it. My husband is the rock god of our kitchen, to be certain.

Oftentimes when I am involved in another project around the house, my husband will call out, “What do you want as your protein tonight?” I am a pescaovotarian, which means that sometimes I will eat fish or something made with eggs.

I had tried to solely become vegan, but the choices for protein are somewhat limited and expensive. Meatless products can also be loaded with fats, sodium and fillers.

COVER STORY

For National Kidney Month, Take Five For Your Kidneys

BY ANTON MEDIA STAFF

M

Control Blood Pressure and Diabetes

specialsections@antonmediagroup.com

arch is National Kidney Month and the National Kidney Foundation is calling on all Americans to take five healthy steps for their kidneys.

The kidneys are the body’s chemical factories, filtering waste and performing vital functions that control things like red blood cell production and blood pressure. But over time, the kidneys can become damaged with little or no physical symptoms to warn you that your kidneys are in trouble.

“Of the 26 million American adults estimated to have kidney disease, most don’t know they have it. That’s why taking care of your kidneys, especially if you are at risk for kidney disease, is vital,” said Joseph Vassalotti, MD, National Kidney Foundation chief medical officer. “There are a few simple things people can do to keep their kidneys healthy and strong.”

Take Five for Your Kidneys

All Americans can do five simple things to protect their kidneys:

Get Tested

Ask your doctor for an ACR urine test or a GFR blood test annually if you have diabetes, high blood pressure, are over age 60, or have a family history of kidney failure. Get screened for free through the National Kidney Foundation’s KEEP Healthy program by visiting www.kidney.org/ KEEPHealthy.

Reduce NSAIDs

Over-the-counter pain medicines, such as NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), may alleviate your aches and pains, but they can harm the kidneys, especially if you already have kidney disease. Reduce your regular use of NSAIDs and never go over the recommended dosage.

Cut the Processed Foods. Processed foods can be significant sources of sodium, nitrates and phosphates, and have been linked to cancer, heart disease and kidney disease. Try adopting the DASH diet to guide your healthy eating habits.

High blood pressure and diabetes are the leading causes of kidney disease and kidney failure.

Managing high blood pressure and strict control of blood sugar levels can slow the progression of kidney disease. Speak with your doctor if you are having trouble managing diabetes or high blood pressure.

Throughout National Kidney Month, the National Kidney Foundation is offering free kidney health screenings through the KEEP Healthy program. To locate a KEEP Healthy screening near you, or to learn more about the kidneys and risk factors for kidney disease, visit www.kidney.org/KEEPHealthy.

Kidney Facts:

• 1-in-3 American adults is at high risk for developing kidney disease today.

• High blood pressure, diabetes, a family history of kidney failure and being over 60 are major risk factors for developing kidney disease.

• 1-in-9 American adults has kidney disease and most don’t know it.

• Early detection and treatment can slow or prevent the progression of kidney disease.

• Kidney disease risk can be reduced by controlling blood pressure and blood sugar, quitting Exercise Regularly smoking, regular exercise, maintaining a Your kidneys like it when you exercise.

Northwell Cardiothoracic Programs Recognized For Top Performance

F

our Northwell Health hospitals with cardiothoracic surgery programs—Sandra Atlas Bass Heart Hospital at North Shore University Hospital (NSUH), Lenox Hill Hospital (LHH) in Manhattan, Staten Island University Hospital (SIUH) and South Shore University Hospital (SSUH) in Bay Shore—earned prestigious threestar quality overall ratings in the several cardiac surgical categories analyzed by the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS).

The latest report included data from 906 cardiothoracic surgical programs across the United States and Canada.

The Sandra Atlas Bass Heart Hospital (SABHH) at NSUH has achieved threestar overall quality ratings – the highest possible performance rating – in all five cardiac surgical categories analyzed by the STS. In addition, North Shore University Hospital was nationally recognized in eight specialties on U.S. News and World Report’s 2021-2022 best hospital ranking including cardiology and heart surgery at the SABHH. “I applaud all our colleagues at North Shore, Lenox Hill, South Shore and Staten Island for achieving the highest quality ratings by the STS in their respective cardiac surgical categories,” said Alan R. Hartman, MD, senior vice president and executive director of cardiovascular and thoracic surgery at Northwell Health. “The superior ratings reflect the expertise and excellent quality cardiac surgical outcomes we provide to patients in the region.

“Achieving top performance in every cardiac surgery category, which the Sandra Atlas Bass Heart Hospital did, is truly a significant accomplishment.

The data demonstrates we are delivering the superior quality cardiac surgical care to our patients and provides critical information for people in our region to make informed decisions about their health care,” Hartman added.

The STS star rating system is one of the most sophisticated and highly regarded overall measures of quality in health care, rating the benchmarked outcomes of cardiothoracic surgery programs in isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery, isolated aortic valve replacement (AVR) surgery, CABG + AVR surgery, isolated mitral valve replacement/repair (MVRR), and CABG + MVRR surgery.

LHH, SIUH and SSUH earned prestigious three-star quality overall ratings for the isolated CABG. Lenox Hill and Staten Island earned a top rating for isolated MV replacement/repair and

Northwell Health’s Sandra Atlas Bass Heart Hospital cardiac surgery team South Shore achieved a three-star rating for CABG+AVR. “I am proud to work alongside our surgeons and entire team whose tireless work and dedication have earned the department another three-star rating,” said S. Jacob Scheinerman, MD, chairman of the Department of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery at Lenox Hill Hospital. “These fantastic results exemplify why patients should

be confident that, under our surgeons’ care, they will return to their normal lifestyle quickly.”

The STS Adult Cardiac Surgery Report analyzed data from participants for five cardiac surgical categories over a three-year period, from July 2018 to June 2021, the most recent reporting data period available. The ratings are calculated using a combination of quality measures

for specific procedures.

NSUH, which also earned the highest marks across all five categories in 2019, one of only three in the nation to do so, scored highest in isolated AVR, which places them in the top four percent of all hospitals scored. NSUH and SSUH also placed in the top five percent of all hospitals for CABG+AVR. A nonprofit organization representing more than 7,600 surgeons, researchers and other health professionals worldwide, STS strives to ensure the best possible outcomes for surgeries of the heart, lungs, esophagus and other procedures within the chest by enhancing the ability of cardiothoracic surgeons to provide the highest quality of care through education, research and advocacy.

Participation in the STS adult cardiac surgery database is voluntary, highlighting the importance of Northwell’s commitment to quality improvement and transparency of outcomes.

Public Policy Call: Mental Health Crisis In Higher Ed The Mental Health Association in New York State, Inc. (MHANYS) has released a white paper calling for a public policy response to the mental health crisis in higher education. The study reveals the prevalence of mental illness at colleges and universities in the U.S., outlines the impact of this crisis and considers the exacerbating role of the COVID-19 pandemic.

With the release of its white paper, MHANYS has launched its push to advance necessary public policy remedies on behalf of all college students in New York.

“The mental health crisis on college campuses has long been a pervasive issue, and it has been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic,” said MHANYS CEO Glenn Liebman.

“Our study makes clear that more needs to be done at the state level to address this mounting problem affecting both public and private colleges and universities. We’re urging New York State to take action and begin to develop a public policy

response to provide the support and resources our college students need.

We’re grateful to the state lawmakers who have already expressed an eagerness to address this issue and collaborate with us.”

The newly released white paper studied the history of mental health in higher education and examined the crisis on today’s campuses. It reviewed research to determine the state of the crisis and its impact on students and the growing demand for mental health services. In addition to assessing the response on college campuses, the study evaluated the broader public response, focusing on actions taken by the media, courts, advocates and legislatures. These findings were then analyzed against the exacerbating impact of COVID-19 on mental health.

“The college experience should be one of opportunity, academic pursuit and personal growth, not an overwhelming strain on the mental wellness of young people,” said John

Richter, MHANYS director of public policy and the lead author of the white paper. “We have worked hard at the elementary and secondary level to ensure resources are available and whole health parity is being considered, and we hope to continue our efforts as young people enter the next phase of their life. We look forward to working with lawmakers, students and other higher education stakeholders to determine the right path for New York to address this very real crisis.”

Several state lawmakers, especially Senator Anna Kaplan, have already shared commitments with MHANYS to help address higher education’s mental health crisis. Kaplan is sponsoring legislation focused on the mental wellness of SUNY and CUNY students.

Study Finds Public Libraries Essential To Health And Wellness

L

ong Islanders’ health concerns related to mental health and substance misuse, heart disease, diabetes and cancer were consistent themes uncovered during a two-year study that examined health and social support issues encountered by public library staff and the patrons they serve. Stony Brook University and Adelphi University public health researchers interviewed library staff at randomly-selected libraries throughout Long Island during December 2017 and February 2020. The Long Island Health Collaborative (LIHC), a coalition of more than 300 organizations all involved in improving the health of Long Islanders, helped coordinate and partially fund the research. The research followed the same protocol used by the University of Pennsylvania when it previously conducted similar research among librarians and staff at the public library system in Philadelphia.

Researchers found that there was a difference between the needs and program offerings based on the socioeconomic status of the neighborhood in which the library is located. Libraries in lower-resourced communities generally ran more basic social assistance programs and those in higher-resourced communities offered more enrichment and leisure-type programming.

Researchers said they were not surprised at the results, as social determinants of health—those factors outside of medicine that influence an individual’s health—account for nearly 80 percent of health outcomes.

These factors include education, poverty, access to transportation, safe and affordable housing, health insurance coverage and access to nutritious and affordable foods, among others.

The results also coincide with findings from the LIHC’s Community Health Assessment Survey (English version) and (Spanish version), which is administered by the LIHC and analyzed bi-annually. It assesses individual and community perceptions about health needs and barriers, as well as social support concerns.

Starting with a list of 113 public libraries, 18 libraries in Suffolk County (from 26 randomly selected) and 14 libraries in Nassau County (from 27 randomly selected)

consented to participate in the “Long Island Libraries Qualitative Research Project.”

Ninety-six interviews were completed, recorded and transcribed.

Approximately three staff members at each library were interviewed. The transcribed interviews were coded based on themes that emerged from the interviews across sites. This resulted in a coding schema with 11 categories and many subthemes within each category.

“Public libraries are hidden gems in our communities,” said Janine Logan, director of the LIHC. “They are a trusted resource. Increasingly, public libraries play a key role in delivering some of the health and social support services an individual requires to live his/her best life.”

The findings from the Long Island Libraries Qualitative Research Project can be used to inform future health and social support service programming offered by libraries, including resource and staff allocation. This is also true of the partnering organizations with which many libraries work, such as the local hospital and health department and the many community-based organizations that bring health and social support service programming to libraries.

Five Ideas For Addressing Job Burnout

BY DR. DON STANGLER

I

negative feelings you might be having at work.

specialsections@antonmediagroup.com

t’s normal to feel checked out or to struggle with your job from time to time, but when it turns into a daily issue, it may be something more.

Burnout is a specific type of work-related stress, and an increasing number of people say they’re feeling it.

The World Health Organization defines burnout as a syndrome resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed, characterized by three dimensions: 1. Feelings of exhaustion 2. Increased mental distance from one’s job 3. Reduced professional efficacy To help you apply this definition to your personal situation, consider whether these statements are true: • Your performance at work is declining • Your efficiency at work is dropping • You’re losing confidence that you can achieve your goals • You avoid work-related tasks or struggle to find the motivation to complete them • You feel exhausted • You’ve lost interest in your work If some or all of these statements ring true for you, you may be

Take advantage of your health benefits Work-related risk factors for burnout may also be predictors of depression. Consider talking to your doctor or accessing other resources available through your health plan, such as virtual behavioral therapy or on-demand emotional support via an app like Sanvello.

experiencing burnout, and various factors may have contributed, including lack of control, unclear expectations, workplace dysfunction or lack of social support.

The COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to our work stress, including in transitioning to a work-from-home environment, adjusting to the unpredictable nature of the pandemic and missing the camaraderie of day-to-day interactions with colleagues at the office.

Addressing burnout is important, because left unresolved, it may lead to physical and mental health issues.

Here are a few ideas for dealing with burnout: Communicate with your boss Discussing your concerns with a supervisor may help you find solutions to things that are causing ongoing stress.

Reach out to your social circle Co-workers, friends and family may be able to offer the encouragement or ideas you need to help overcome feelings of burnout. Spending time with people you care about may help boost your mood and counteract the

Stick to healthy routines Well-balanced meals, regular exercise and quality sleep all help to reduce stress and can improve how you feel and perform at work.

Find ways to calm your mind Consider trying yoga, meditation or breathing techniques to improve your mental health. Check out some ideas at newsroom.uhc.com It may be helpful to think of burnout as a wake-up call. It’s a strong sign that something in your life is not working, so it’s important to take it seriously.

Use it as an opportunity to reflect, rest and, perhaps, create a new plan for professional happiness.

COVID-19 Showed We Need A More Diverse Doctor Workforce

BY ROBERT GRANT

Deaths related to COVID-19 were more than twice as high among black, Latino and Native American people as among whites in 2020, according to new research out from the National Cancer Institute.

It is only the latest reminder of the glaring inequity that plagues the U.S. healthcare system. Addressing that inequity will require boosting access to care among people from marginalized groups.

That’s partially a supply problem— the United States needs more doctors, especially doctors who hail from historically underserved communities.

Research shows that doctors from these communities are not only more likely to return there to practice but more likely to deliver better outcomes for their patients.

More than 83.7 million Americans live in places with limited access to primary care doctors, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation. They are disproportionately people of color.

That figure will likely increase. A June 2021 report from the Association of American Medical Colleges estimates that the United States could be short 124,000 physicians by 2034.

Research has consistently shown a link between access to physicians and health outcomes. Life expectancies in areas with fewer doctors are, on average, lower than those in areas that have more. About 7,000 U.S. lives could be saved every year simply by narrowing care gaps in the country’s most underserved communities.

To sustainably address the doctor shortage, we must recruit from the communities that are most acutely experiencing it. Numerous studies have found that a doctor’s race or ethnicity is a strong indicator of where they eventually return to practice. The same goes for language, family income and whether the doctor comes from a rural or urban area.

Patients also fare better when they can relate with the physician treating them. A 2018 National Bureau of

Economic Research study found that black men had significantly better health outcomes when treated by black doctors.

This was also true for preventative care. Black men treated by black doctors were 10 percent more likely to receive a flu shot and nearly 30 percent more likely to submit to cholesterol tests.

It is on medical schools to produce the doctors that historically marginalized communities need. Sadly, they haven’t done a very good job of that.

Black and Hispanic people make up more than 31 percent of the U.S. population—but only a smidge over 20 percent of the student population at U.S. medical schools.

Incoming medical students hail from disproportionately wealthy families, too. Last year, the median income of parents of medical school matriculants was $140,000—double the overall median household income in this country.

International medical schools

(IMG), by contrast, have made addressing inequity a priority. Onequarter of America’s doctors attended medical school outside the country.

In low-income communities, international medical graduates are one-third of the doctor workforce. And in areas where the population is majority nonwhite, IMGs are even more prevalent.

Graduates of international medical schools are also more likely to go into primary care, where the need, especially in underserved communities, is greatest. Of the U.S.-born international medical graduates who matched into residency programs last year, roughly 70 percent entered into primary care specialties.

The disparate racial impact of COVID-19 is a tragic example of those inequities. Developing a more diverse doctor workforce is one small way to work toward ending them.

New Hyde Park Medical Student Matches Into Military Residency J

acqueline Hausner, of New Hyde Park, is one of several medical students from New York Institute of Technology College of Osteopathic Medicine’s (NYITCOM) Class of 2022 who matched into U.S. military residencies. After graduating from NYITCOM this spring, Hausner will complete a general surgery residency with the U.S. Navy at the Naval Medical Center in San Diego.

After medical school, physicians must complete a residency training program and obtain a medical license to practice in the United States and become board certified in a specialty.

Medical residencies last three to five years for primary care physicians, with other specialties requiring additional years.

While the “civilian” match takes place in March, medical students who have committed to military service for their residency are matched a few months earlier. These future physicians will take the military oath of office at NYITCOM’s hooding ceremonies this spring and begin their

graduate medical education in conjunction with service to their country.

Physicians enlisted in the military deliver healthcare services to military personnel and their families and work in a variety of settings, including hospital ships and international medical centers, among others. Much like civilian doctors, their daily responsibilities include treating patients, diagnosing illness and prescribing medicine. Military physicians may also participate in international relief and humanitarian efforts, helping to care for the victims of natural disasters and other events requiring medical stability assistance.

New York Institute of Technology’s six schools and colleges offer undergraduate, graduate, and professional degree programs in in-demand disciplines including computer science, data science, and cybersecurity; biology, health professions, and medicine; architecture and design; engineering; IT and digital technologies; management; and energy and sustainability.

March Is Colorectal Cancer Awareness

olorectal cancer is a disease in which cells in the colon or rectum grow out of control.

Sometimes it is called colon cancer, for short. The colon is the large intestine or large bowel. The rectum is the passageway that connects the colon to the anus.

Sometimes abnormal growths, called polyps, form in the colon or rectum. Over time, some polyps may turn into cancer. Screening tests can find polyps so they can be removed before turning into cancer.

Screening also helps find colorectal cancer at an early stage, when treatment works best.

changes to your diet can reduce your colorectal cancer risk. Medical experts often recommend a diet low in animal fats and high in fruits, vegetables and whole grains to reduce the risk of other chronic diseases, such as coronary artery disease and diabetes.

This diet also may reduce the risk of colorectal cancer.

Hepatitis C Cases On The Rise The number of new cases of hepatitis C in the United States and our area is rising, predominantly due to the opioid epidemic which shows no sign of easing. This is no surprise as intravenous drug use is the most common risk factor for this infection. Sadly, most new cases of hepatitis C are reported in people in their twenties and thirties.

The past several years of the COVID pandemic have made the hepatitis C situation worse. The pandemic has resulted in an increase in the incidence of hepatitis C cases, a decrease in the number of hepatitis C screenings being performed, a decrease in the number of hepatitis C patients started on curative treatment and a decrease in the resources available to care for hepatitis C patients due to budget cuts and provider burnout. This COVID effect surely means that the United States will not meet the World Health Organizations goal to eradicate hepatitis C by 2030.

Just a few years ago, hepatitis C was the leading indication for liver transplantation in the United States. When well tolerated oral treatments became available, many of the patients known

to have treated and cured patients who had cirrhosis prior to hepatitis C treatment to develop liver cancer five to seven years after cure.

THE Most patients who have been SPECIALIST identified with hepatitis C have been treated and cured.

The identification and treatment of young people with recently acquired hepatitis C infection is more difficult.

Society must figure out a method to bring these people into the health care system, counsel them to avoid opioid use and initiate curative hepatitis C therapies. This is important both for the patient and for the community as cure will prevent the transmission of hepatitis C to others through the sharing of contaminated needles.

We have come a long way towards the elimination of hepatitis C in our communities. Unfortunately, the COVID pandemic has stymied our efforts to increase hepatitis C screening, diagnosis, and treatment. With the pandemic hopefully waning and entering the endemic phase, now is the time to get back on track and put steps in place to address the ever-present hepatitis C silent epidemic.

March Is Endometriosis Awareness Month

N

ormal periods do not cause excruciating pain, but endometriosis does. There are a number of symptoms that should not be ignored.

Endometriosis is a disorder where similar tissues inside the uterus start to grow outside the uterine cavity.

This lining of the uterus is called endometrium. Its symptoms vary from woman to woman.

The most common symptoms are: • Pain in lower abdomen before and during periods • Pain during or after sexual activity • Painful urination/bowel movements during periods • Fatigue • Infertility • Heavy bleeding • Other gastrointestinal upsets Many women with endometriosis suffer from allergies, chemical sensitivities and frequent yeast infections. Women with endometriosis also experience a range of immune disorders, including asthma, eczema and certain autoimmune diseases.

Infertility affects about 30 percent of women with endometriosis.

Diagnosis

An endometriosis diagnosis is considered uncertain until proven

by laparoscopy, a surgical procedure done under anesthesia. A laparoscopy usually shows the location, size and extent of the growths.

Laparoscopy is an invasive surgery to remove the endometrial tissues.

This helps the doctor and patient make better treatment choices.

Not diagnosing and helping adolescent girls and young women with the early symptoms of endometriosis is more likely to doom them to pain in later years.

Causes

The full picture of the causes of

endometriosis is still unknown.

Endometriosis is a puzzling disease affecting girls and women from as young as eight years old through postmenopause.

Research has shown that environmental toxins such as dioxin and PCBs, which act like hormones in the body and damage the immune system, can cause endometriosis. Dioxins are highly toxic chemicals which come from the production and use of pesticides and herbicides; municipal, medical and hazardous waste incineration; chemical and plastics

manufacturing; and pulp and paper production. Dioxins readily concentrate in the food chain, contaminating animals and fish; thus food is the primary source of dioxin exposure for humans.

One theory suggests that endometrial tissue is distributed from the uterus to other parts of the body through the lymph or blood systems. A genetic theory suggests that certain people have predisposing factors.

Surgical transplantation has also been cited in many cases where endometriosis is found in abdominal scars, although it has also been found in such scars when accidental implantation seems unlikely.

Another theory suggests that remnants of tissue from when the woman was an embryo may later develop into endo or that some adult tissues retain the ability they had in the embryo stage to transform under certain circumstances.

The retrograde menstruation theory suggests that during menstruation some of the menstrual tissue backs up through the fallopian tubes, implants in the abdomen and grows.

The Next Interim LIRR President Should Have Come From Long Island Rail Road President Phil Eng retired effective Feb. 26. Eng said in resigning “I can retire knowing that I leave the LIRR well positioned for continued success with a dedicated management team and a tenacious workforce who are delivering the best train performance in LIRR history, while fulfilling our commitments on a historic capital program.” MTA Chairman Janno Lieber announced that he is appointing Metro North President Catherine Renaldi to serve as interim LIRR President. Lieber’s justification for this action, is that “We need somebody who knows the commuter railroads, we need somebody who knows the MTA.” He went on to say “And we need somebody who knows Grand Central, where the LIRR and Metro North are about to be roommates.” For all these reasons, I’m naming Cathy Rinaldi to serve, in

addition to her role at Metro North, as the interim president of the LIRR.” Serving as either LIRR or Metro North President is a full-time job. It requires a good working knowledge of the agency organization, staff, operations, facilities and customers’ needs. The portfolio also includes, on-going capital projects such as the $11.2 billion Eastside Access to Grand Central Terminal, $2.6 billion Main Line Third Track and $450 million Jamaica Station

Capacity Improvements.

There are also many other projects contained within the LIRR $5.7 billion share of MTA’s $51 billion 2020-24 Five-Year Capital Plan. There is little time for on the job training to run the nation’s largest commuter rail road.

Any good organization develops in-house talent by promoting from within.

Lieber could have appointed either the LIRR Executive Vice President, Senior Vice President for Operations, Senior Vice President for Engineering or one of several other experienced LIRR Vice Presidents as interim LIRR President. Lieber’s justification of Renaldi’s appointment was that she “...knows commuter railroads, the MTA and Grand Central Terminal.” Why didn’t Lieber acknowledge that any member of Eng’s current senior leadership already knows the LIRR? They would be ready to step in on day one

with no need for on-the-job training.

Why didn’t Lieber have confidence in the ability of Former Long someone Island Rail Road from Eng’s President Phil Eng (Photo courtesy of manage- the Metropolitan ment team Transit Authority) already in place to fill this position on a temporary basis? It is an insult to the hard-working, current LIRR management team, employees and loyal commuters to not appoint someone from within the LIRR. Ms. Renaldi has her hands full just trying to manage Metro North, the nation’s second largest commuter railroad. This includes Metro North’s $4.6 billion share of the MTA’s $51 billion 2020-24 Five-Year Capital Plan. Adding the LIRR to her

portfolio is attempting to serve two bosses. It is a recipe for disaster. There are not enough hours in a day to do justice to both assignments. How many months will go by before the next full-time permanent LIRR President comes on board?

Remember that Lieber, just like his predecessors will need the blessing of the governor.

Just like past history, Governor Hochul will play a behind-thescenes role in the selection of a permanent LIRR President.

Larry Penner is a transportation advocate, historian and writer, who previously worked for the Federal Transit Administration Region 2 New York Office. This included the development, review, approval and oversight for billions in capital projects and programs for the MTA, NYC Transit, Long Island Rail Road, Metro North Rail Road, MTA Bus along with 30 other transit agencies in NY & NJ.

Cutting The Cord Have you heard the expression “Cutting the Cord”?

It used to mean finally letting go of your children and allowing them to live their lives in the adult world without you interfering. But if you Google it today, you’ll get a completely different meaning.

In today’s lexicon, “cutting the cord” refers to getting rid of your cable TV provider and signing up for individual streaming services, like Netflix or Hulu. Those services, along with Paramount Plus, Disney Plus and others, are available for a monthly fee. You can even stream premium cable networks like Showtime, HBO and others.

Many are “cutting the cord” with cable, retaining only their Internet service, allowing access to all available streaming services. I’ve spoken to several people who have done this, and they all sing the same song, “It’s great!”

Based on their viewing habits, watching “Live” TV has never been a priority. With the advent of the DVR (replacing the VCR), I can’t say when I last watched any show on the

enjoy the original programming offered. They entice you with their low monthly subscription prices, like $9.99, $12.99 or $14.99. But those services start to add up month after month.

However, there is one thing individual streaming services can’t give you that our generation perfected with the invention of the remote control—channel surfing.

LONG ISLAND LIVING

service keeps track of where I left off.

I’m not a fan of “binge-watching.” I liked it when shows had cliffhangers that held my interest until next week. Sunday night TV was incredibly eventful when watching shows like Dexter, Breaking Bad and The Walking Dead. Now I can watch complete seasons of Ozark or Cobra-Kai on a single weekend (if I wanted to).

With so many different options, I have problems making a final decision. For me, too many options mean I can’t make up my mind, even when trying to pick a movie

from the “On Demand” menu.

It’s so much easier to channel surf and find something I’m comfortable with.

It’s like choosing between a sit-down restaurant or a buffet.

A restaurant provides you with choices on a menu. You select a meal, and your waiter personally delivers it to your table—appetizer, followed by soup or salad, then the entrée, ending with a dessert.

With a buffet, you never know where to start. You end up piling things on a single plate you would never eat in combinations, just because you can. When finished, instead of being satisfied, you didn’t enjoy anything because you overate.

Do you know what would be great? If you had all those streaming channels available in one place where you could use your remote to switch between all the different shows.

Oh wait, isn’t that what your cable provider does for you?

Pizza And Pretzels With A Purpose

S

tudents at Stewart School in Garden City are giving back to a number of charities and organizations through the Pizza with a Purpose and Pretzel with a Purpose programs.

The programs started at Stewart a number of years ago as a way to introduce service-learning to students.

Students at all grade levels have the opportunity to choose an organization that they are passionate about, then write a letter to the Stewart main office explaining why their chosen organization is important to fundraise for.

“I chose to do it because I like helping people in need,” student James Cassaro said.

For example, students have chosen charities including The Foundation Fighting Blindness, I’m Not Done Yet, The Marfan Foundation, Team Seas and a variety of local animal shelters.

“I picked an organization called BBBS, which stands for Big Brothers Big Sisters, because they don’t just have one age group, they support the whole family, anyone who needs help,” student Pierce Hayes said.

Each week there’s a rotation between Pretzel with a Purpose and Pizza with a Purpose.

Local pizzerias and the Philly Pretzel Factory sell their products to the school for a low price.

In turn, Stewart sells either pizza or pretzels to students and staff who have filled out an order form at a slightly higher price.

The funds that are made from the in-school sales are then donated to the selected the non-profits and organizations.

Many organizations have received between $500 and $1,000 from Stewart School as a result of this fundraiser.

In addition, the students who write letters selecting organizations get to share what the non-profits are all about on the morning announcements.

Garden City Students Create Out Of This World Artwork Garden City students across all grade levels have been invited to design a Space Mission Patch to be sent to the International Space Station.

Space Mission Patches are worn by astronauts and serve as important symbols of the team, an idea or a reminder of the values embedded in NASA culture.

Two Space Mission Patches designed

by Garden City students will be selected to fly to space, more than 250 miles above Earth’s surface.

One patch will be selected from students grades kindergarten through seven, and one from students in grades eigth through 12.

The patches will travel to space along with the science experiment designed by four of the district’s seventh grade students as part of the Student Spaceflight Experiments Program (SSEP).

Each patch represents Garden City pride and the district’s participation in the SSEP, creating a cross-curricular experience for students.

Garden City students designed Space Mission Patches during art class. The students photographed here are from Stewart School.

The SSEP is a program of the National Center for Earth and Space Science Education (NCESSE) in the U.S. and the Arthur C. Clarke Institute for Space Education Internationally.

It is enabled through a strategic partnership with Nanoracks, LLC, which is working with NASA under a Space Act Agreement as part of the utilization of the International Space Station as a National Laboratory.

All District Basketball Teams

BY JAMES ROWAN

levittown@antonmediagroup.com

T

hese are the top boys basketball players for the 2021-22 season from the Levittown, Island Trees and Wantagh school districts.

The list was compiled from statistics over the most recent season and with some input from coaches.

Three athletes took home triple-crown honors. MacArthur’s Matt Sarni, Island Trees’ Antonio Mathew and Divisions’s Tyler Diez were each named to the All District, All Defensive and Scholar Athlete teams.

Due to the prolific scoring of Mathew and MacArthur’s John Rebaudo, they were named co-Offensive Players of the Year.

Coach of the Year—Brian Maini (MacArthur) The Generals started the season with an 0-8 record and fought all the way back to within one shot of the playoffs. Maini kept the team on track in one of the toughest conferences in Nassau County. Of the seven teams in Conference A-1, five made the playoffs. No other conference in the county could boast of that success.

Maini’s team rallied to a 6-5 record over the last 11 games. In a one-week span, the Generals knocked off the top two teams of the conference, Great Neck South and New Hyde Park.

The season ended with a 46-44 loss to conference champion New Hyde Park on the final regular season game.

MacArthur possessed the ball in the waning seconds with a chance to win, but a three-pointer just missed the mark.

Player of the Year—Matt Sarni (MacArthur) The heart and soul of the Generals.

Sarni, a senior, did whatever it took to win. He scored, he passed, he rebounded and defended. He was the first one on the floor for a loose ball. Sarni often played the point, but always made his presence felt on the boards. He was a tenacious rebounder all season.

Offensive Player of the Year— Antonio Mathew (Island Trees) A high-scoring guard, Mathew scored 28 points against Seaford, 24 against North Shore and 20 in a win over Lawrence. Antonio put up these numbers despite always drawing the opposition’s top defenders. Mathew averaged just under 15 points a game for the Bulldogs.

Offensive Player of the Year—John Rebaudo (MacArthur) Rebaudo was a threat any time the ball was in his hands. A sharp-shooter from behind the three-point line, Rebaudo, a senior, scored 30 points in a game against Division this year.

He was also effective, driving and slashing to the basket. He could score from anywhere on the floor.

The Generals offense revolved around John.

Defensive Player of the Year—Matt Cassidy (MacArthur) Often assigned the opposing team’s leading scorer, Cassidy usually guarded his man the entire length of the floor. He was also a master at drawing offensive charges, gaining key possessions for the Generals.

The hard-working senior guard was relentless in his pursuit of stopping the opposition.

Faid Faisal, c, JR., F, Division; Tyler Diez, SO, G, Division; Jack Gillis, SO, F, Division; Antonio Mathew, SR, G, Island Trees In recapping the season, Island Trees coach Michael Wimmer had this to say of Antonio Mathew: “He was named All-County despite opposing team defenses doing everything they could to take him

out. He had 20 points in a win over Lawrence, including the game winner. He was a strong on ball defender who averaged a steal per game.”

Of Meyer, Wimmer added, “Meyer averaged close to 10 points per game.

He had 21 against Division, 16 in a win over Jericho and 15 at Lawrence.

He was our best off ball defender—he averaged 2.5 steals per game and had almost three deflections per game.”

Division coach Jordan Dasch had this two say about his leading players. “Alessandro was a captain and led by example. He never wanted to leave the court and left it all out there. He always kept things light but he knows when to turn it on and be serious. A perfect balance in my opinion.”

Of Diez, he said, “Tyler was a surprise for us this year. He played varsity as a sophomore and ended up as a starter and made the most of his opportunity. He’s a hard worker that demanded the best from himself and from his team.”

She met and married CPO William Johnson on June 22, 1958. They were married 49 years until Bill’s passing in 2007. Kay, as a Navy wife, lived in California, Virginia, Paris, France and Stuttgart, Germany. After Bill’s retirement in 1969 they moved to Beloit, Wisconsin to be near family. Her post Navy life began a career of acting, directing, and writing community theater, while professionally writing across the advertising industry in Rockford, Illinois which included hosting a TV show for women. In 1975 Kay would give birth to their son Daniel.

In 1976 Kay took a job as copy writer with the William Cook Agency in Jacksonville, Florida which would begin the most prolific work of her career. Kay was often considered one of the best industry writers in the South for her work on campaigns such as Winn Dixie, First Union, and her most recognized accomplishment: Florida’s First Coast.

Gwendolyn Adams Clement July 20, 1928 – February 22, 2022

Gwendolyn Adams Clement, the second of two children to Norman and Helen Adams, was born in Urbana, Ohio on July 20, 1928. Gwen received her high school diploma from Urbana High School and her Bachelor’s degree from The Ohio State University.

Upon obtaining her degree, Gwen spent time working in business alongside her father. After moving to Washington, D.C. with her husband Wendell, she began her career in education where she helped found the Child Development Daycare Center at Matthews Memorial Baptist Church. She also taught early childhood education in the Washington, DC Public School System.

When she and her family moved to New York, Gwen went back to school and received a Master’s in Education from Hofstra University and continued her career as an educator in Westbury Public Schools.

Gwen was old school and had solid values about dignity, being fair, and honesty. Gwen was an exceptional educator and motivator. She took pride in her classroom, yet her most valuable lessons often transcended classroom walls.

If the kids learned anything in her class, it was having good manners and how to act properly; the academics would follow. Her passion for education continued into retirement after a 40+ year career.

Gwen also educated others by the way she lived. She gave her life to Christ at 16 and continued her relationship with the Lord until her passing. She was an active member of Westbury A.M.E. Zion Church for more than 30 years, serving as a Sunday School teacher, Leader of Christian Development, Financial Secretary and Steward.

Gwen was a relentless fighter and was courageous in sharing her opinions. She would unabashedly voice her disapproval if she deemed something to be unfair.

She relentlessly fought against injustices towards children and racial inequality.

Gwen loved just as hard as she fought. Known for her generosity, outspokenness, and determination, anyone who knew Gwen can attest to the memorable impact she had on their lives. Gwen selflessly shared what she had, whether through encouragement, wisdom, or support and often communicated her love by giving generous gifts. She had a passion for all things red, travel and adventure, quilting and needle point, a good political debate, and her family.

Maw-Maw, as her family affectionately called her, is survived by her two sons Bruce (Cynthia) and David (Jacqueline), five grandchildren Daviece, Donnell (Danielle), Brandon, Christopher, and Jonathan, two great-granddaughters Jaliyah and Myla, and many loving nieces, nephews, colleagues and friends.

Her generosity, outspokenness and feistiness will forever be missed.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You appreciate how things come together because you realize just how much can go into even the simplest of plans. A series of events and responses will unfold wondrously for you this week, involving instinct, thought, input and physicality, each gear turning the next in an interplay akin to a finely tuned machine.

Rainforest magic Solution: 24 Letters

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). When is it time to retire an interest? When it’s no longer interesting, of course! Feelings around letting go -- guilt, sentimentality, fear -- can be sticky, but that’s not an upbeat reason to continue. When you finish with an endeavor, this will free you of a related clutter of material possessions, liberating new energy.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). There are some things you might prefer to do for free because it takes the pressure off. But even if you still think of yourself as an amateur, you should charge or at least trade something for your work. It makes the experience better for both parties. People will value what they pay for even if they pay very little.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Persistence and perseverance are more valuable commodities than talent. You want to work and play with people who can commit, follow through and stick with the mission. The attitude of determination is like a varnish that makes natural aptitudes shiny and tough.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Instead of rating yourself against others, you’ll be tempted to use your own past performance as a benchmark. The trouble is, even for you, you’re a hard act to follow. Anyway, scorekeeping is unnecessary in unique situations like this. Consider yourself and your work incomparable and just keep going.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Even though you can be exceptionally gifted at the art of compartmentalization, events echo one another. Every experience is still in you somewhere and has bearing on the other experiences. Your existence plays multiple notes at once. To harmonize them, you have to be willing to listen to all the parts of you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). What you read, watch and listen to matters.

It’s not because others base their opinions of you on it -- they do, but that’s beside the point. While it doesn’t define you, media influences your thoughts, molds your mindset and messes with your appetites. You’ll choose your entertainment with great care.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It may feel as though you are not moving very quickly through a pursuit, but this is actually perfect. You are accumulating a knowledge base. Later, some event or new piece of information will trigger the light switch, and you’ll see how it all fits together. Until that time, enjoy yourself. Learning is a pleasure.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The people who want you to buy their products are constantly advertising to you. Why let them have all the attention? Use the power of marketing to sway your own choices. You’ll love what happens when you surround yourself with symbols and messages that encourage you to choose what’s best for you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Feeling drawn to someone doesn’t always mean that the person will be good for you. You learned this lesson through experience and now need only to remind yourself. Meanwhile, what starts as a mild attraction has potential to grow into something brilliant, strong and healthy.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS:

Your pursuits fortify you because you only give yourself over to worthy aims.

How you judge the worthiness of an aim will change with the seasons. At different times, you’ll quest for love and prioritize career achievements and other pursuits of mastery. Believe in your ability. Bring just 5% more conviction to your decisions a nd you’ll be amazed at how much progress you can make by summer. A winning move in June will bring profit; in July, you can leverage and double it.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). No one is born knowing. Awkward stages are an inevitability of growth. Of course, if you’re going to feel inadequate, you’d prefer to feel it alone. Learning before an audience adds uncomfortable intensity. When it’s unavoidable, take heart. On the bright side, such an experience is a mighty strong bonding agent.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You experience each person as a new discovery.

You appreciate uniqueness of personal rhythms and tones, points of tension, particularities of movement -- it’s what makes socializing fascinating. When you start forgetting who did what, and humanity blurs into homogeny, take a break from the social swirl.

CONTRACT BRIDGE By Steve Becker

FOR RELEASE FRIDAY, MARCH 11, 2022

Test your play

1. You are the dealer with the West hand at Six Diamonds, and North leads the queen of hearts followed by the jack. You play low twice from dummy as South contributes the six and four. How would you play the hand?

WEST EAST ♠AK5 ♠9743 ♥7 ♥K 8 5 2 ♦ A K 10 6 2 ♦QJ9 ♣ A K 10 4 ♣Q J 2.You are declarer with the West hand at Five Diamonds doubled, the bidding having gone: North East South West 1♠ Pass 4♠ 5♦ Dble Pass Pass Pass North leads the king of spades, which you ruff. When you lead the ace of diamonds, South discards a spade. How would you play the hand?

WEST EAST ♠— ♠8654 ♥ 10 ♥9 8 7 3 2 ♦ A K Q 10 7 4 3 ♦ 5 2 ♣A K Q 6 2 ♣9 3 ***

1. The best way to avoid a spade loser is to try for a dummy reversal.

Ruff the second heart with the king and cash the J-9 of trump.

If the adverse trumps are divided 3-2, ruff the eight of hearts (assume the ace does not fall). Then lead a club to dummy’s jack and ruff the heart king with your last trump.

Now lead a club to the queen and cash the queen of trump, discarding your spade loser, and the rest of the tricks are yours.

All told, you score six trump tricks (dummy’s Q-J-9 and the three heart ruffs in your hand), two spades and four clubs. This type of play is called “dummy reversal” because declarer reverses the usual procedure of ruffing losers in dummy and instead ruffs dummy’s losers in his hand.

2. The correct lead at trick three is the ten of hearts! This seemingly aimless play offers the best chance for the contract, since North’s hand probably looks something like: ♠AKJ92 ♥KJ ♦J986 ♣J4 If you don’t lead the ten of hearts and instead play the A-K of clubs, planning next to ruff a low club in dummy, North can defeat you by trumping the third club, leading the heart jack to his partner’s ace and trumping a club return by South.

The purpose of the early heart play is to remove South’s heart entry prematurely and thus assure the contract even if North has only a doubleton club. If you make the heart play at trick three, the only tricks you can lose — if North has a hand similar to the one shown — are a heart and a diamond.

Butlers went off to form Love Spit Love, the siblings’ original musical project reformed in 2000. The past two subsequent decades were spent touring off past successes, with the Furs returning in 2020 with Made of Rain, the group’s eighth studio album and first collection of new material since 1991’s World Outside. For Tim Butler, the delay in making it was more a case of careful deliberation versus rushing into the studio just for the sake of cutting a new album.

“When we got back together, we were talking about doing a new album, but we were a bit gun shy about coming up with an album that could stand up alongside Forever Now or Talk Talk Talk,” he said.

Timing being what it is, the pandemic blew up just as the record was released. With COVID-19 numbers plummeting and some kind of new

normalcy returning, Butler and his band mates are eager to hit the road again.

“We finally have a new album that sounds current and it shows that we still have something to say musically,” Butler said. “It’s really exciting to finally be getting out there playing new songs—not just for us, but for the audience, who have been loyally coming to see us since we got back together.”

In the meantime, Butler was more than happy to share which fellow bass players have inspired him over the years.

Jean-Jacques Burnel (February 21, 1952 to present) “When I was about 16 or 17, I went to see The Stranglers a few times and [John] showed you didn’t have to be in the background like John Entwistle standing there with your eyes looking at your fretboard. His bass sound was so cool—it was like a lead instrument.”

Paul McCartney (June 18, 1942 to present) “I think he revolutionized the bass for rock and roll. He brought a whole other kind of melodicism to rock and roll, which is cool.”

Peter Hook from Joy Division/New Order (February 13, 1956 to present) “I like the way he does the melodic lines. Again, he doesn’t just hold down the root note. He does lots of melodies.”

The band will be playing on March 17 Huntington at The Paramount, 370 New York Ave., Huntington. Visit www. theparamountny.com or call 631-6737300 for more information. The Furs will also be playing on March 25 at the Apollo Theater, 253 W. 125th St. NYC. Visit www.apollotheater.com or call 212-531-5305 for more information.

hat’s old is new again. So it goes with the Psychedelic Furs. While the band’s name may sound strange to anyone who wasn’t tuning into WLIR back in the ’80s, the Furs managed a major commercial breakthrough when late filmmaker John Hughes tapped the song title of the band’s 1981 hit “Pretty in Pink” to serve as the name of his 1986 movie.

Led by brothers Richard and Tim Butler, who sing and play bass respectively, the London outfit never rose to the heights of peers like Depeche Mode, The Cure and Duran Duran. But they avoided one-hit wonder status thanks to a string of KOMTV-friendly / White logohits below this line including “Love My Way,” The Ghost in You,” “Heaven” and “Heartbreak Beat.” And while the ’90s was a wash as the Furs went on hiatus in the early ’90s while the
