TOP STORY

June Town Board Meeting The North Hempstead Board Meeting and the town of Port Washington

JULIE PRISCO jprisco@antonmediagroup.com

T

he June Town of North Hempstead Board Meeting was held earlier this month and lasted close to five hours.

The lengthy meeting was well attended by North Hempstead residents to voice opinions and learn about the various changes and upgrades coming to the town.

The town meeting set hearing dates for future meetings and discussed various resolutions to improve North Hempstead.

Of the many resolutions discussed, many focused on making structural improvements and upgrades to the town of Port Washington.

The town board would like to replace the Town Dock Stationary Pump-out Unit. The pump-out unit enables boats to remove wastewater and bilge water. These pump-out stations are vital to dispose of waste safely, and with the Town Dock being so popular, having a sufficient stationary pump-out unit is essential.

Councilmember Mariann Dalimonte offered a resolution authorizing the preparation and submission of a grant application to the New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation’s Clean Vessel Assistance Program Grant and related action.

According to the board meeting agenda, “the grants coordinator has recommended that the town submit an application to the New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation’s Clean Vessel Assistance Program Grant for a grant in the amount of $12,719.48 to assist the town with replacement costs.”

The grant requires the town to contribute $4,239.83 towards the replacement costs along with the grant. The town board authorized the preparation and submission of the grant to assist in replacing the Town Dock pump-out unit.

The town has focused on the Carlton Avenue retaining wall in Port Washington.

Three resolutions were passed regarding servicing and repairing the wall.

DeBruin Engineering will provide professional engineering services to analyze and

The June 16 town board meeting. (Image from the Town of North Hempstead website) report the condition of the Carlton Avenue retaining wall and make recommendations on how to proceed. Concrete Cutting Company Inc. will take samples from the wall for the engineers to determine the thickness of the wall.

GBD Geospatial will be providing surveying services for the wall. According to Councilmember Dalimonte’s newsletter, “the survey will determine the owners of the property that the wall is on and the surrounding property.”

A public hearing was held to consider the application of Geismar, LLC for an amended site plan review for their premises located at 7 Harbor Dr., Port Washington.

Daniel Baker, a representative from the law firm Certilman, Balin, Adler and Hyman, spoke on behalf of Geismar, LLC, which owns the property on Harbor Drive where the warehouse and distribution center is operated by Paint Applicator Corporation of America (PACOA).

In 2019 and 2020, the town board and town Board of Zoning Appeals approved the addition of a warehouse on a six-acre parcel on Harbor Drive. When COVID-19 hit, the plans were halted. Since then, the company has realized some New York State Fire and Building code items that required alterations to the original building plan.

The previously approved 99,223 square foot warehouse now needs an additional 2,167 square feet of construction.

“Everything that’s been done here is not only an improvement to the site but something that is helping Geismar and PACOA to stay at this facility rather than to seek a larger space elsewhere,” explained Baker.

PACOA is a family-owned business

operating in Nassau County for 50 years.

The company has been at the Harbor Drive location for many years and has grown its business, requiring them to add a new warehouse.

“This will allow for the increase in jobs because of the extra area and space,” said Baker about the 2,167 square foot addition.

So we believe this is a good application.”

The town board approved the additional square feet to be added to the construction plan for 7 Harbor Dr., Port Washington.

A topic that concerns all North Hempstead drivers and children is the possible adoption of a local law establishing chapter 65B of the Town Code to be entitled “Failure to Stop for School Buses.” Town Supervisor Jen DeSena explained that the public hearing for the proposed local law is to consider opting the town into New York States law section 1174-a.

“Opting in would authorize the town of North Hempstead to create a school bus safety program,” said DeSena.”[The program] could potentially equip every school bus in the town with state-of-the-art recording systems to capture video of vehicles in the act of passing a stopped school bus and automatically issuing a violation to the vehicle owner.”

“The number of injuries and fatalities that have occurred due to this extremely avoidable situation is staggering,” said DeSena. “I believe that the town is in a unique position to be able to drastically decrease these numbers over time. The health and safety of our residents, especially the children of our town, is a top priority for all of the elected officials up here, and I’m glad we’ve been able to combine our efforts to

put the best system in place to protect the health and safety of our residents.”

Residents came forward to voice concerns about over-ticketing and funds for this program. DeSena and the town board assured residents that voting on the issue allowed the town to seek program proposals. After receiving the proposals, costs, revenues and details on how tickets will be administered will be brought back for the board and residents to discuss.

Rob Trotta, Suffolk County Legislator, drove out to the North Hempstead meeting to warn the board to be very careful when looking into the camera system and set criteria very tightly.

“I am very well aware of people breaking the law; this is not what’s happening with these cameras,” said Trotta. “I’ve seen hundreds [of situations] with a bus still moving, and the stop sign is coming out, and people are passing it, and they’re getting $250 tickets… Be very careful about it. I’ve seen [tickets] where it is five lanes of traffic and an 80-year-old woman that has never done anything wrong in her life [gets a ticket]. Cars go by; there is no safety issue at all, and it’s harassing the public.”

“I received probably 50 calls a week about people who have never gotten a ticket before now getting tickets, and it’s not fair to her or the public,” concluded Trotta.

The Supervisor and the board assured the public that details would be discussed at a later time to ensure the safety of the children while also making sure tickets are given to those who genuinely break the law and pose a threat to safety.

The next Town of North Hempstead board meeting is on Thursday, July 7.

Schreiber High Class Of ’70 Celebrates 50-Ish Class Reunion

his graduating class knows how to party. After all, they went to the World’s Fair in Flushing like today’s kids go to the movies! They lived during major current events as teens. They are the Woodstock generation blasting music on Campus Drive while marching against the Vietnam War. They grieved together over the Kent State incident. They supported the Civil Rights Movement. And, so, in true form, being together again prompted the best of good times on the weekend of June 10 in Port Washington.

The stars aligned providing perfect 75 degree weather for 3 days. Here are a few other notable numbers just for fun: • Born in 1952- this reunion was the 52nd anniversary celebration • Graduating in 1970-these graduates are now turning 70 (Did somebody say 17? No, 70! What. What?)

When asked what was the best part of the class reunion, classmate Billy Hoover said, “It makes you feel good to be recognized, and to recognize others in our class. I’m happy to be here!”

It’s such a life-affirming experience to rehash, reacquaint and realize shared

Friends, Classmates and Memories

experiences of growing up together. Of the 550 graduates, about 60, whom have died, were respectfully memorialized in pictures at the entrance to the party at Hendricks Tavern. In all, about 80 came from far

and wide to attend— including Tony Dellavecchia who travelled the farthest, from Thailand.

Committee members Janet Palmer, Linda Delia, Steve Leigh, Russell Gilbert and Paul

Pacent, planned for 3 years and made the weekend a success, down to the details of name tags with the Schreiber class photo visible. Because between aging and needing glasses to see the name tags, you can imagine the laughs!

Lucky class of ’70! They can claim Steve Leigh of Fathoms Hotel and Marina in Port and Gillis Poll of Bryant & Cooper, Hendricks Tavern and more. See? This graduating class still knows how to party!

Everyone danced to 60’s and 70’s hits by the fabulous band, Decade Of Soul.

Thanks go to Salem School for allowing the ‘softball-septuagenarians’ to take the field, and Harbor Links for hosting the golfers, Hendricks Tavern and Fathoms.

Saturday night, while grouping together for a ‘class picture’ something wonderful happened. Suddenly, Gail Smith Issing, former cheerleader, broke out in the Port Washington Song and immediately, all joined in. Singing together! Talk about feeling good! Then, they sang it one more time, just because they could. Some wondered when they will celebrate and sing together again.

Taking North Hempstead’s Temperature On Climate Change N

orth Hempstead Supervisor Jennifer DeSena and Town Board along with the Town’s Climate Smart Communities Task Force encourage the community to participate in a survey to assess issues, perceptions and beliefs about Climate Change. Findings will help the town determine what community members believe are the most important actions to tackle when creating its Climate Action Plan.

“The Town of North Hempstead

recognizes the detrimental impact of climate change on our community, and the Town Board and I are committed to developing and implementing policies that will reduce the Town’s carbon footprint,” Supervisor DeSena said. “This survey will provide invaluable data and assist the town in our sustainability efforts.”

The town collaborated with faculty at New York Institute of Technology (NYIT) to help develop the survey and has compiled a list of over one hundred stakeholders and

community groups that will help spread the word to all communities throughout North Hempstead.

The survey is live on the Town’s Climate Action website and is accessible in multiple languages. All results will be made public and included in the Town of North Hempstead Climate Action Plan.

To take the survey visit NorthHempsteadNY.gov/ClimateAction.

Help Identify Pride In Port Parade Grand Marshals Mark your calendars for Saturday, Sept.

24, the date of this year’s Pride in Port event that lasts throughout the day and into the evening. The annual parade is a highlight of the day’s activities when every school and many other organizations participate. This year’s Pride in Port Parade Grand Marshals will be businesses that have been owned and in continuous operation by the same family for at least three generations.

Many communities couldn’t even have one honoree that boasts this kind of longevity, but the Pride in Port Committee can name at least six! Honoring businesses

that have been part of the fabric of the Port Washington community for so many decades truly embodies what Pride in Port is all about.

To ensure no businesses are missed, the Committee is asking for submissions from businesses that are being managed in whole or part by at least their third generation.

Residents can submit the names of eligible businesses, too. The only other requirement is that they run a storefront business as opposed to a home-based business.

Please email or call the Port Washington Chamber of Commerce office at

The 2022 Pride in Port planning committee. (Photo by Debbie Greco Cohen) 516-883-6566 or office@pwcoc.org no later than July 15, 2022. All of the Grand Marshals will be announced in newspapers

As a public establishment, the PWPL aims to serve each and every person in the community. By opening a dialogue about untold or ignored stories, the PWPL can ensure its ability to represent everyone.

Exposing audiences to new experiences allows patrons of the library to understand new perspectives.

For this reason, it is important to note that the Walk With Me screening was intended to appeal to everyone, not just LGBTQ+ individuals.

“Whatever your identity may be, it’s a love story, and I think that it’s something everyone can relate to in one way or another,” said Zeh. The film looks into what it means to explore and embrace your identity, something that everyone can relate to no matter their sexual orientation.

“Walk With Me explores love in its purest expression, allowing viewers to really see and understand that simple truth that love is love,” said Rosal.

Rosal explains that the different elements of the film aim to “take the viewer on a personal journey that allows them to better understand the subtleties of what LGBTQ+ people navigate when coming out.”

By sharing stories that have been

historically underrepresented, the PWPL aims to promote inclusion through its programs and services. As a forum for the Port Washington community, the PWPL serves as a space for every resident to see themselves in the books and programs provided.

Faulkner: Enduring, Prevailing, Unvanquished tragedian. This comes hard for Americans, a people “unschooled in tragedy,” (Richard Weaver), a people where “a happy ending is our story” (Mary McCarthy). Faulkner had a sense of humor, breaking through in such stories as “Shingles For The Lord” or his final novel, The Reivers. There were his circumstances, also his thorough reading of the Old Testament and the works of William Shakespeare. Faulkner was drawn to the drama of life and with it, the drama of prose.

From “Red Leaves:”

his year, the twos have it. 2022. 2012.

2002. 1992. 1982. 1972. 1962. Stop right there. 1962? The Cuban Missile Crisis was the story of the year. Americans went to sleep on the evening of October 22 wondering if they would see the morning.

Two famous Americans didn’t see a new morning that year. A year earlier, in 1961, Ernest Hemingway died, victim of a self-inflicted gun shot wound. His great rival, William Faulkner, died on July 6, 1962, after suffering another drinking binge. Dies the literature, dies the nation?

Few, if anyone, will notice that this is the 60th anniversary of Faulkner’s passing.

However, there’s never a good time not to write about the man and his work. More has been published on Faulkner than any other writer in the English language, save another William, Shakespeare by name.

William Faulkner did have a brief New York connection. In his youth, he worked at a bookstore in Greenwich Village. His publishers were in the city. Faulkner polished up the ending to his 1929 classic, The Sound And The Fury while sitting cross-legged on a bed at a downtown hotel. He handed over the manuscript to his editor, remarking, “Here, read this. It’s a real son of a ----.” That it was.

With The Sound And The Fury, Faulkner began to hit his stride. His friendship with Sherwood Anderson proved decisive.

Anderson, who put small-town Ohio life on the map in a string of novels and stories, urged the young Faulkner to give up on the literary scene in New Orleans and instead, go back to northern Mississippi and zero in

William Faulkner receiving the Nobel Prize for Literature from King Gustav of Sweden. (Photo courtesy of Internet archive) on his “postage stamp.” Anderson added, also decisively, that there’s two things a man can never be: Ashamed of himself and where he came from.

For Faulkner, that was like falling off a log.

He grew up in the “front porch republic” that existed before World War II. In Faulkner’s day, Americans sat on the front porch and talked all night. Tall tales inevitably made their way back to the Civil War. The young Faulkner was fascinated by both his paternal and maternal grandfathers. His father was a bureaucrat laid low by the Depression. The grandfathers, however, were both veterans.

One of them even constructed a monument to himself, one that stands today in Ripley, Mississippi, north of Faulkner’s Lafayette County postage stamp.

As with writers of his generation, William Faulkner took the burden of history and placed it right on his shoulders. His world was different than those of say, Andrew Lytle, Caroline Gordon or Donald Davidson.

Mississippi still suffered from the war and reconstruction: Poverty, occupation, crippled veterans, widows clad in black, an intractable race situation. The man made the most of it.

William Faulkner is America’s great

Don’t you see? This whole land, the whole south is cursed, and all of us who derive from it, whom it ever suckled, white and black both, lie under the curse?

Or from “Delta Autumn:” ‘This Delta,’ he [Ike McCaslin] thought.

‘This Delta.’ This land, which man has deswamped and denuded and derivered in two generations so that white men can own plantations and commute every night to Memphis and black men can own plantations and even towns and keep their town houses in Chicago…where cotton is planted and grows man-tall in the very cracks in the sidewalks, where usury and mortgage and bankruptcy and measureless wealth, Chinese and African and Aryan and Jew, all breed and spawn together until no man has time to say which is which, or cares.

In 1950, the weight of the world did fall on his shoulders. Winning the Nobel Prize for Literature that year was an event. For years, such future Nobelists as Jorge Luis Borges and Jean-Paul Sartre sang Faulkner’s praises. Malcolm Cowley’s 1946 collection, The Portable Faulkner, put him back in the good graces of the critics, paving the way for the Nobel. In Stockholm, Faulkner displayed a different side, stunning a global audience with a

message of hope.

I decline to accept the end of man…

I believe that man will not merely endure: he will prevail. He is immortal, not because he alone among creatures has an exhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance. The poet’s… duty is to write about these things. It is his privilege to help man endure by lifting his heart, by reminding him of the courage and honor and hope and pride and compassion and pity and sacrifice which have been the glory of his past.

The poet’s voice need not merely be the record of man, it can be one of the props, the pillars to help him endure and prevail.

Novels, short stories, poetry, essays, reviews, speeches. Faulkner also spent much of the 1930s in Hollywood, writing film treatments for Warner Brothers.

Jack Warner even boasted, “I have the best writer in the world working for me for peanuts!” (In time, Faulkner would tell Warner what he could do with his “peanuts.”)

I’ll list two novels, Absalom, Absalom!

(1936) and the before-mentioned The Sound And The Fury, as representative of the man’s corpus. That, reader, will have to wait until next week.

In the meantime, keep in mind that Nassau County has the finest public library system in America.

“It was pretty crazy,” Berlin explained. “I thought the competition was formidable.

The guys didn’t go because they didn’t think they were going to win. I thought, what the hell, I had the weekend off and went to see what would happen. It was a

lovely surprise and that stuff never gets old.

People bitch and moan about the relevancy of the Grammys and to a certain extent, they’re not necessarily wrong. But it’s pretty fun.”

A true pandemic record, Native Sons was initially supposed to start recording

ven though saxophonist/producer Steve Berlin has been an official member of Los Lobos since 1984, he’s still the new guy in the band. That said, he’s been part of a wild ride that found the quintet without a label for the three-year stretch between 2016 and 2018 despite being a multi-platinum act with a deep canon and a 2015 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nomination (we’re still waiting for induction).

The California quintet achieved redemption after signing with roots music-leaning imprint New West Records, which released 2021’s Native Sons and paid off via a Grammy for Best Americana Album. An album conceived at the height of the pandemic, its industry success came as quite a surprise to Berlin, who saw Lobos snag a 1983 Grammy for Best MexicanLos Lobos from left: Cesar Rosas, Conrad Lozano, David Hidalgo, Louie Perez, Steve Berlin American Performance right (Photo by Piero F.

in November 2019, but between touring commitments and how the coronavirus slammed the brakes on the world in March 2020, actual recording didn’t begin until June. And that wound up being limited to recording one week a month out of an abundance of caution until vaccines became available. The result was an L.A.themed collection of covers (save for the title cut) that paid homage to the band’s myriad influences. Among the artists interpreted are Berlin’s old band The Blasters, War, Jackson Browne, Buffalo Springfield and more obscure artists including East L.A. garage band Thee Midniters and Chicano music icon Lalo Guerrero. But rather than the project being a hodgepodge of covers, Berlin pointed out how all the selections had meaning attached to them.

“I know that I had compiled a list of maybe 60 songs as a starter,” Berlin said. “It wasn’t like a Chinese restaurant, where we would pick and choose

End The Stigma On Mental Health I grew up as a sensitive kid.

So much so that when my elementary school gave out superlatives to graduating fifth-graders, the one I received was most self-aware.

Growing up, I viewed my sensitivity as a weakness, a clear marker that separated me from my peers and gave high stakes to any social interaction I happened to find myself in. I didn’t really understand why I felt so different from other kids my age. Most seemed to wade through childhood keeping their head above water, impervious to insults and not getting bogged down in their own self-image.

Middle school is when I had my first depressive episode.

It was the summer going into eighth grade,and I got blindsided by a special brew of anxiety for the future and a persistent inner critic that wouldn’t give me any time to myself. Another wrinkle added to my situation was that my anxiety made me sick to my stomach so I could not keep

down any food I ate.

This first dance in the waters of depression lasted about three weeks, which seems like the most minor of blips compared to the length of time I have been depressed since then. I have lost count of how many times depression has darkened my door. When my symptoms re-emerged, it was dispiriting because I convinced myself I was past it and would never

“regress” in that way.

Yet, I don’t regret any of it. It has made me stronger, surer of myself, and—most importantly to me—compassionate about other’s hardships. Through the trial of adversity, I decided to choose growth. Not that this was easy. My biggest hurdle was bypassing my own stubbornness. I had to take my experiences and view them as a chance to better myself instead of beating myself up over my perceived “weakness.”

Mental health awareness and ending stigma is very important to me. Not just because of my own exposure, but because of the many friends and family members I have seen affected by various mental health issues.

I continue to meet so many amazing and brilliant people who suffer internally because of something out of their control.

My experience and that of others made me curious about what mental health services were offered at my school, Farmingdale State College. I saw that there was

one-on-one counseling on campus, but there was a lack of specialized services or peer support groups. In spring of 2021, I was part of the Student Government Association (SGA) at Farmingdale, and each semester a Senator is required to present his/her own resolution with the goal of improving services for students on campus.

I couldn’t think of a better idea than to center my resolution on expanding the mental health services on campus.

There used to be more student resources for this, but the pandemic had limited those services and had yet to return in full force with options for the students. My resolution was aimed at addressing the addition of more support groups for students to discuss issues they were experiencing during the school year, and to cover a wider range of mental health concerns, such as social anxiety, depression, addiction and other mood disorders.

It got passed on the Senate floor, but it still took a while for the changes to be instituted.

Luckily, a fellow Senator helped things progress further this past fall by adding his own resolution calling for more mental health services, which in effect expanded upon my resolution.

This past spring, I saw fliers and even an electronic sign in front of campus advertising support groups for students, whether for anxiety, depression or other mental health issues.

There is always more to be done, but it is important that we fight to give those suffering a place where they feel they can be heard and that they are not alone.

HOME & DESIGN Prepared For Summer

A

s the approaching 10th anniversary of Superstorm Sandy reminds us of the effects weather can have on the electric system, PSEG Long Island is announcing that it is prepared for hurricane season and to meet peak demand during extreme heat situations this summer. The company’s ongoing electric infrastructure and storm hardening improvements help provide electric reliability to Long Island throughout the year.

PSEG Long Island has incorporated numerous enhancements and upgrades to the electric grid, its systems and its storm processes, including its contingency procedures.

Electric Infrastructure Improvements

Across Long Island and the Rockaways, PSEG Long Island has prepared the electric infrastructure by focusing on substation, and transmission and distribution improvements, as well as by performing circuit and equipment inspections using drones, helicopters and infrared technology.

Storm Hardening Programs Completed Do you have a love of history? This landmarked property at 63 Murray Ave. in Port Washington sold on June 15 for $1,400,000. Beautifully sited on a large 100’x120’ landscaped property with winter water views and lovingly maintained architectural details, this three bedroom and three bathroom home features a wrap-around porch, original wood floors, diamond sash windows and millwork. The charming entry foyer, inviting living room with gas fireplace and dramatic dining room are further enhanced by nine-foot ceilings and abundant natural light. Three spacious second floor bedrooms with eight-foot ceilings offer lovely views which share a full bathroom. An updated eat-in-kitchen was expanded to include a powder room and informal dining area. This property offers a lower level with outside entrance, utilities and laundry area. It is close proximity to the train station, waterfront, shops and restaurants. Beach and mooring rights are available with membership dues.

This custom built Colonial at 11 Guilford Rd. in Port Washington sold on June 16 for $2,200,000. It has been newly redesigned and meticulously updated to integrate high-end finishings with perfect functionality. It is a turn-key with four bedrooms and three bathrooms and delivers an ideal New Salem location, pleasing curb appeal and an inviting front porch. The attention to detail is evident upon entry: custom millwork, hardwood oak flooring, built-in foyer console and a chic powder room.

The dining room’s stunning custom bar with wine fridge is a showstopper. The open concept chef’s kitchen has every amenity, with a marble center island and quartz counters leading to the great room with shiplap walls, a new mantel and gas fireplace. Sliding doors overlook the backyard oasis with patios, gorgeous landscaping and salt water heated pool. On the second floor, the spacious primary suite boasts a large walk-in closet, tray ceiling and a luxurious spa bathroom with double vanities, freestanding tub and radiant heated floors. Three additional bedrooms and a full bath are also on the second floor. The two-car garage is attached. The home has a full basement and central air conditioning.

Since the implementation of the FEMA-funded storm-hardening program funded in 2014, PSEG Long Island has completed storm hardening and reliability work on more than 1,000 miles of distribution mainline circuits. The sections of circuits that are storm hardened saw a 44 percent reduction in damage leading to outages compared to the rest of the distribution system.

PSEG continues its storm hardening work with Power On, an initiative started in the spring of 2020 that will continue to improve reliability by strengthening distribution lines, targeting the most vulnerable circuits across Long Island. More than 190 miles of distribution mainline circuits have been storm hardened with stronger poles, thicker wire and other modern equipment.

Arborists work throughout the year to identify and trim tree limbs in rights of way and along easements that could potentially cause outages during or after a storm. PSEG has removed more than 88,500 hazardous trees and large limbs along the distribution and transmission system and trimmed more than 21,000 miles of distribution and transmission line clearance in accordance with the industry best practice clearance standard. This standard preserves the health of the tree and directs future growth away from power lines. A new vine mitigation program identified, cut and treated more than 14,000 vine locations across Long Island.

PSEG also prepares its dedicated workforce for summer by conducting annual hurricane and tropical storm drills and employee training; by developing emergency summer operating plans; and by performing summer-peak reliability analyses to ensure there is sufficient capacity to meet electric demand on high-heat days.

Living At Home With Dementia

T

he Alzheimer’s Association’s “2022 Alzheimer’s Disease Facts and Figures” report reveals that 6.5 million people in the U.S. are living with Alzheimer’s disease.

More than 10% of people aged 65 and older have Alzheimer’s or another type of dementia, including frontotemporal dementia, Lewy body dementia, vascular dementia, and combinations of dementia types.

“As their care needs increase, people with dementia may choose to live in a memory care facility,” Gregg Balbera, president of Right at Home Nassau Suffolk said. “Most prefer to remain in their own homes as long as possible, among familiar surroundings and their established support system.”

But, said Balbera, this requires care support, which often is provided by spouses, adult children or other family and friends.

Today, 11 million people are providing this care. They help loved ones with self-care, such as bathing, dressing and using the toilet. They pay bills and handle other paperwork. They coordinate their loved one’s medical care. They provide “emotional labor,” keeping their loved one’s spirits up and depression at bay while coping with personality and behavior changes caused by the disease.

While many caregivers say caring for their loved one is rewarding, dementia caregiving is hard work, both physically and emotionally. “It often affects the caregiver’s career, other family relationships, and their physical and cognitive health,” said Balbera. “And many family caregivers are at an age when they need care themselves.”

f there is one thing people look forward to as they approach their 65th year, it’s Medicare insurance for their healthcare needs. Medicare is a federally run health insurance program for people who are 65 years of age or have collected Social Security Disability for 24 months. It is also available for individuals with permanent kidney failure or Lou Gehrig’s Disease.

Unless you are already collecting Social Security, you will get your Medicare card automatically in the mail. If you are not yet collecting Social Security, you have to apply for Medicare during the three month period before your 65th birthday. You may apply for Medicare by calling the Social Security Administration at 1-800-772-1213 or online at: www.ssa.gov/medicare.

Medicare coverage can be confusing for the uninitiated, as there are various options. Choosing the right plan for you requires careful consideration. If you need help understanding or choosing a plan, Family and Children’s Association (FCA) can help guide you through the process with free help available by calling the Nassau County Health Insurance

Medicare Medical Insurance (Part B) covers physician and other outpatient services. These services include doctor visits, hospital outpatient services, lab tests; physical, speech or occupational therapy; and durable medical equipment for use in the home. The standard Part B premium amount in 2022 is $170.10. Most people pay the standard Part B premium amount. If your modified adjusted gross income as reported on your IRS tax return from 2 years ago is above a certain amount, you’ll pay the standard premium amount and an Income Related Monthly Adjustment Amount (IRMAA). IRMAA is an extra charge added to your premium. Prescriptions are covered through Barry Klitsberg Medicare Part D when you elect Part B coverage.

Medicare Part D is prescription coverage.

There are 19 drug plans in New York State.

These plans vary in premium cost and formularies.

There are Medicare supplement plans known as Medigap. These are standardized plans that can fill most of the Medicare gaps such as deductibles and co-insurance.

Life Insurance Quotes For Seniors what affects the cost of premiums and compare different plans. Here’s how life insurance works and some types of policies that may be available to seniors.

How does life insurance for seniors work?

Life insurance for seniors provides loved ones with financial security when the policyholder passes away by paying out a sum of money called a

death benefit. Some policies also come with a cash value growth component that will accumulate over time. Once the policyholder has built up enough cash value, they can withdraw from it, borrow from it, or surrender the policy to receive the full amount minus surrender charges.

With any life insurance plan, policyholders have to pay monthly premiums to maintain their coverage.

Life insurance premiums for seniors can depend on many other factors, such as: • Insurer: Each insurer will offer different premiums.

• Policy terms: A higher death benefit and adding riders can increase costs.

• Gender: Men tend to pay slightly higher premiums than women, since women often live longer.

• Age: Life insurance tends to get more expensive with age, since an older policyholder is more likely to pass away while the policy is active.

• Family health history: Insurers consider the health history of both the policyholder and their family when calculating premiums.

• Smoker vs. nonsmoker: Smokers pay

more for life insurance than nonsmokers, all else held equal.

• Hobbies and lifestyle: Hobbies like skydiving, rock-climbing, and car racing may be considered risky, leading to higher premiums.

Types of life insurance for seniors

Here are two main types of life insurance policies that are available to seniors:

Final expense insurance Final expense insurance is a small whole life insurance policy designed to help a senior’s loved ones cover end-oflife costs, such as outstanding medical bills and funeral expenses. This life insurance policy typically comes with a smaller death benefit and lower premiums than standard whole life insurance policies. Final expense insurance also provides a cash value growth component that builds with each payment and grows at a fixed rate.

Final expense insurance policies generally don’t require a medical exam, making them an excellent option for seniors who might not qualify for other types of permanent life insurance policies.

Social Security Announces Benefit Increase For 2022 Social Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits for approximately 70 million Americans have increased by 5.9 percent in 2022.

The 5.9 percent cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) began with benefits payable to more than 64 million Social Security beneficiaries in January 2022. Increased payments to approximately eight million SSI beneficiaries have been distributed since December 2021. Some people receive both Social Security and SSI benefits. The Social Security Act ties the annual COLA to the increase in the Consumer Price Index as determined by the Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Some other adjustments that take effect in January of each year are based on the increase in average wages. Based on that increase, the maximum amount of earnings subject to the Social Security tax (taxable maximum) will increase to $147,000 from $142,800.

Information about Medicare changes for 2022 can be found online at www.medicare. gov.

For Social Security beneficiaries receiving Medicare, Social Security will not be able to compute their new benefit amount until after the Medicare premium amounts for 2022 are announced.

Reasons People Life is a Journey Without Children Should Still Have Embrace An Estate Plan every day because every day P counts eople without children may think there’s no need to have an estate plan and/or will. This misconception can be especially true for married couples who believe the estate will easily transfer to a surviving spouse.

However, the truth is an estate plan can make life a lot simpler in the time leading up to and after someone passes away. Whether someone is married or not, here are four reasons why people without children still need an estate plan.

1

An Estate Plan Can Designate Healthcare and Legal Authority

An estate plan assigns decision-making authority for healthcare and legal decisions through critical documents like an advanced healthcare directive and power of attorney.

And those without children still need to define these decision-makers, whether it’s a spouse, friend, sibling, niece or nephew.

If someone falls ill, gets into an accident, or is otherwise incapacitated, their spouse or designated decision-maker needs the authority to make decisions on their behalf.

And failure to get the proper documents in place could mean receiving care that doesn’t align with someone’s wishes.

charities could benefit instead. That means assets like, taxable brokerage accounts, savings/checking accounts, CDs, etc. can directly benefit people or causes meaningful to the deceased.

Other accounts, such as retirement accounts, annuities and term life insurance policy death benefits are directed by their beneficiary designation, not a will. However, they can also be a key part of an estate plan as they avoid probate and can also avoid attorney’s fees. Updating beneficiaries should be done at the same time as keeping a will up to date.

3

An Estate Plan Outlines Who Will Care for Pets

An important consideration after someone passes away is what will happen to their furry loved ones. And for those without someone else at home to take over the responsibility, an estate plan is a perfect place to outline where pets will go and what, if any, financial support they’ll receive.

Failure to appoint where pets should go could mean they’ll be much worse off after their human is gone.

• Maintaining a relationship with a primary care provider is an important part of managing chronic conditions like hypertension that can lead to stroke.

• Quit smoking, which increases your risk of a stroke, disease, and death. Talk to your health care provider and health plan about resources that might be available to help you quit.

• Eat healthy foods, like those low in cholesterol and saturated fat, plus lots of fruits and vegetables If you know the signs and symptoms of a stroke and act quickly, it can mean the difference between life or death, major disability or a better quality of life. If you experience the sudden onset of any of these symptoms, seek medical care immediately: • Numbness or weakness in the face, arm, or leg—especially on one side of the body • Confusion or trouble speaking or understanding • Problems seeing in one eye or both eyes • Dizziness, loss of balance or coordination, or trouble walking • Severe headache with no known cause Every year strokes take a toll on far too many of us. Reducing the risks of this too-often devastating condition starts with educating ourselves about stroke and taking small steps to improve our overall wellbeing.

bout 795,000 people have a stroke every year, including thousands of people in New York, according to the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC). The good news is up to 80 percent of strokes are preventable and if one occurs, it is possible to treat and recover if caught early.

Getting smarter about strokes is crucial as time is a major factor in preventing disability or death.

Understanding the symptoms of stroke and risk factors can help you get help fast and reduce your risks.

A stroke is a medical emergency caused by the interruption of the flow of blood to the brain as a result of a clot or internal bleeding. Our brains require a continuous supply of oxygen and nutrients. If blood flow stops, brain cells start to die in just a few minutes.

Because of this, a stroke can have a serious impact on many functions of your body, including speech, respiration, movement, cognition, and bladder control. Strokes reduce mobility in more than half of stroke survivors 65 and over. In fact, stroke causes more serious long-term disabilities than any other disease, according to the National Institute on Aging.

Individuals who survive strokes often need physical, speech, occupational therapy and other medical care.

Older adults are at an increased risk of having a stroke. However, there are several ways you can help reduce those risks, including: • Make exercise part of your daily routine. Many people don’t know that many Medicare Advantage health plans include fitness benefits. For example, UnitedHealthcare’s Renew Active program

Report Finds Challenges Understanding Alzheimer’s Development

T

he Alzheimer’s Association 2022 Alzheimer’s Disease Facts and Figures report found challenges faced by both doctors and the American public in understanding and diagnosing mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It is estimated that 10 to 15 percent of people with MCI—an early stage of memory or other cognitive loss—go on to develop dementia each year.

The 2022 Facts and Figures report provides an in-depth look at the latest national statistics on Alzheimer’s disease prevalence, incidence, mortality, costs of care and impact on caregivers along with a new section on the dementia care workforce.

An accompanying special report, “More than Normal Aging: Understanding Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI),” for the first time examined both public and primary care physicians’ understanding of real-world awareness, diagnosis and treatment of MCI and MCI due to Alzheimer’s disease in the United States.

“Mild cognitive impairment is often confused with ‘normal aging,’ but is not part of the typical aging process,” said Maria Carrillo, Ph.D., chief science officer, Alzheimer’s Association.

“Distinguishing between cognitive issues resulting from normal aging, those associated with MCI and those related to MCI due to Alzheimer’s disease is critical in helping individuals, their families and physicians prepare for future treatment and care.”

New disease-related statistics for New York revealed the following: • Number of New York residents aged 65 and older living with Alzheimer’s: 410,000 • Estimated number of New York residents living with Alzheimer’s in 2025: 460,000 • Percentage change: 12.2 percent • Number of New York residents serving as unpaid family caregivers: 563,000 • Total hours of unpaid care provided: 835,000,000 “The new Facts and Figures report shows the impact of Alzheimer’s on families here in Long Island and across the entire nation,” Douglas E. Davidson, executive director of the Alzheimer’s Association, Long Island Chapter, said. “In Nassau and Suffolk counties, the Alzheimer’s Association is supporting the community with education to help people understand and recognize early signs and symptoms and with programs to help caregivers and people living with the disease.”

MCI common but still unknown

It is estimated 12-to18 percent of people age 60 or older have MCI. While some with MCI will remain stable or revert to normal, up to 15 percent go on to develop dementia each year. Identifying which people with MCI are more likely to develop dementia is a major goal of current research, potentially enabling earlier disease intervention and treatment.

Despite the prevalence among aging Americans, the new report found more than four out of five Americans (82 percent) know very little or are not familiar with MCI. When prompted with a description of MCI, more than half (55 percent) say MCI sounds like “normal aging.”

Importance of early intervention

Of survey respondents who wanted to learn about Alzheimer’s disease during the MCI phase, more than half (70 percent) noted the need for planning and opportunities for treatment. Early diagnosis gives families time to make legal, financial and care decisions for the future, based on a patient’s concerns and priorities, and is associated with lower overall health care costs.

The vast majority of primary care physicians (86 percent) said early intervention can slow progression of cognitive decline.

Only one out of five physicians report being familiar with clinical trials available to their

patients with MCI, and only one out of four say they are familiar with new therapies in the pipeline to address MCI due to Alzheimer’s disease. When MCI is detected, primary care physicians most often recommend lifestyle changes.

Future outlook and opportunities

The last two decades have marked an increase in the development of a new class of medicines that target the underlying biology and aim to slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. As of February 2022, there are 104 disease-modifying treatments being evaluated in clinical trials or at various stages of regulatory approval. These potential therapies are aimed at slowing the progression of MCI due to Alzheimer’s disease and mild Alzheimer’s dementia, according to the Alzheimer’s Association.

Workplace shortages

This year’s report also includes a new section on dementia care workforce. Most states will have to nearly triple the number of geriatricians who were practicing in 2021 to effectively care for the number people projected to have Alzheimer’s dementia in 2050. Most states will need to double the number of home health and personal care aides.

• In New York, there are approximately 568 geriatricians. By 2050, 44 percent more are needed to meet the needs of people projected to have Alzheimer’s.

• New York had 437,300 home health and personal care aides in 2018. That number will need to increase by 60.6 percent to meet demand by 2028.

LOS LOBOS from page 4A from that list. The list was an inspiration.

As we went along, one song would remind us of another song. The songs had to mean something to somebody in the band and especially if it was something someone in the band felt passionate about.”

With such a long and storied canon, Berlin shared what Los Lobos projects resonated most with him. ...And a Time to Dance (1983) “The first one [was pretty seminal] because it was the first one. And I wasn’t even part of that. I wasn’t even in the band. I was in The Blasters. I was producing it. That record was made while I was transitioning into being a full-time member.”

How Will the Wolf Survive? (1984) “Making How Will the Wolf Survive?

was profound because it was our first real record. We’d won a Grammy for that EP [...

And a Time to Dance], so we were on the radar. We had risen up the food chain, if you will. We were not brand-new anymore, were doing well on the road and making a little bit of money. Things were certainly looking up. We were on Warner Brothers, so we knew we had to step up a little bit.

We had a ball doing it. We didn’t feel much pressure, but we knew we had to do a great job. That was a big one.”

Kiko (1992) “We were concerned that we were going to be dropped by our label because the [prior] record [The Neighborhood] didn’t do well.

Long story short, we had to make a new record and we were pissed off at ourselves, the world and the music business. We did what we wanted to do and the way we wanted

to do it. We were all in a very experimental mood and [engineer Tchad Blake] was the main mad scientist. We would do something and he would do his thing and it would sound awesome. Any dumb idea sounded so great with whatever he was doing to it.

He made everything work. A lot of times in the studio you’ll go down a road and then decide to rethink something. I don’t remember that ever happening because we never took a step back. We always just kept going forward. It was always cool and we just decided to keep going. It was really just joyous and fun. Making Kiko was tons of fun.

If we’re enjoying ourselves, more often than not, it’s going to translate to the music. That was really fun.”

The Ride (2004) “We did The Ride, which we produced ourselves and that was amazing. The Ride and the Super Seven records were similar

because we were making records with people that we respected and people that had powerfully influenced us, like Tom Waits, Richard Thompson, Mavis Staples and Bobby Womack. It was just sort of taking what we had learned on the way to making records and bringing people into our world or going into their world. The Ride and Super Seven records were fun because we got to see how our culture interacted with other people’s cultures. We certainly liked the culture that we had cultivated and it was pretty wacky and daring.”

WE LOVE OUR PETS

L

ong Island Orchestrating for Nature (LION), the leading animal advocacy organization on Long Island, has named Animal General of East Norwich its “2021 Veterinarian of the Year” for the animal hospital’s tremendous efforts and dedication to providing free and low-cost veterinary care to wildlife and domestic fowl rescued from cruelty, complete with a plaque featuring a chicken and a plant-based care package from Cindysnacks Vegan Market.

“Whether we are asking them to carefully remove duct-tape from a goose who was strapped with fireworks, amputate the wing of a chicken maimed by animal sacrifice, bring back to life ailing birds saved from live slaughter markets, or treat animals suffering from years of neglect at Long Island petting zoos, we know that our rescues are in good hands when we bring them to Animal General for an appointment” John Di Leonardo, an anthrozoologist and president of LION said.

VCA Animal General of East Norwich serves as the primary veterinarian for LION’s domestic fowl rescues, and Dr. Ellen Leonhardt, the practice’s medical director, as well as staff veterinarian Dr. Danielle Perrone, serve on the advisory board of Volunteers for Wildlife, a local wildlife rehabilitation organization.

“VCA Animal General of East Norwich is proud of our on-going collaborative efforts, working alongside John Di Leonardo, Long Island Orchestrating for Nature (LION) and numerous other wildlife rescue groups within our community,” Dr. Leonhardt said.

“We pride ourselves in helping the

Vet Of The Year underserved, moving towards a healthier and safer environment for these delicate creatures, each deserving individualized care, attention and veterinary medical expertise.”

Among its notable victories, LION successfully opposed the expansion of SeaQuest Aquariums’ sordid mall aquarium chain into Oyster Bay in 2019, recently saved the lives of tens of thousands of animals over the course of just one week in Huntington, and has rescued hundreds of ducks, chickens and peafowl abandoned in Oyster Bay since 2016. LION previously recognized another Oyster Bay veterinary practice—Massapequa Pet Vet— with its Veterinarian of the Year award in 2018.

By Holiday Mathis

By Holiday Holiday Mathis Mathis HOROSCOPES INTERNATIONAL WORD FIND By HOROSCOPES INTERNATIONAL WORD FIND ARIES (March 21-April 19). New habits are fragile. Unexpected and extra events

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Those on a fault-finding mission will have no problem finding it. You may want to avoid these types because their mission will only make yours more difficult. You’re on the hunt for fun, which will involve joining with agreeable people who keep it light and bring a spark of playful curiosity to the picture.

Everybody has one Solution: 18 Letters

WORD FIND This is a theme puzzle with the subject stated below. Find the listed words in the grid. (They may run in any direction but always in a straight line. Some letters are used more than once.) Ring each word as you find it and when you have completed the puzzle, there will be 18 letters left over. They spell out the alternative theme of the puzzle.

Everybody has one

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The secret to your charisma may be known to others but not to you because the very nature of your charm is unselfconsciousness.

Having fame and power isn’t your goal, though it may come as a byproduct of your passion and dedication to the goal. Part of your appeal is that you don’t care to whom you appeal.

© 2022 Australian Word Games Dist. by Creators Syndicate Inc.

Solution: 18 Letters

CANCER (June 22-July 22). There is a wealth of knowledge that happens at a deeper level than the one where words and explanations exist. You may feel more confident and articulate when you can explain what you know, and this is worth working on, but in the meantime your intuitive leanings shouldn’t be discounted. Act on instinct.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Pride goeth before the fall, but your definition of pride will matter here. Letting people know what you do isn’t about pride but usefulness. The process goes better when they trust you, so your credentials matter. Explaining your expertise isn’t bragging; it’s making the process easier for all.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Even favorable circumstances, fortuitous opportunities and wonderful events can come with their own kind of stress. Fun requires you to be in top condition! As you rest and take excellent care of yourself this week, you’ll also be helping yourself enjoy what’s coming.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You don’t need everything to go according to plan to feel good about it. Long ago, you acknowledged that you aren’t in charge of it all, and now you get to adopt the laid-back attitude to go with that realization -far more comfortable and charismatic than trying to control the uncontrollable.

Solution: There’s what’s his name olution: There’s what’s his name

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). To connect in perfectly mannerly ways, which fall neatly within the acceptable boundaries of mutually understood roles, were it even possible, would be pointless. The ensuing boredom would only ruin the social arena for all. So go on, make an honest mess and enjoy the unfolding excitement in relationships this week.

Crea tors Syndica Creators Syndicate CUSTOMER SERVICE: (800) 708-7311 EXT. 236te

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Perhaps the world “flirt” is too reductive to describe your interaction style, which has more to do with stirring up good vibes than it does with any social agenda. Nonetheless, someone thinks you’re flirting with them and loves it. Business will be friendly, and a friendship will lend itself to doing business, too.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Even if you do what everyone else is doing, your expression, experience and thoughts about it will be unique, as your mind is a filter unlike any other. Your creative stamp will be on all you do without any conscious effort on your part. Originality pours from your unselfconscious commitment to the moment you’re in.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The list of things you’re looking out for today includes: the best in people, the sunny side, ways to help and means to uplift.

The quest causes you to automatically fall into the flow of fortuitous words and actions. You don’t even have to think about the next correct move; it all flows naturally.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

It’s a better world because you’re here. This will be evident in the lives and smiles of those you help. Your own well-being is also proof. The responsibility to take magnificent care of yourself is the one from which all else happens. The single lifestyle choice that has the biggest impact will be the company you keep. A truly unusual meeting will take your professional life for an exciting ride. There’s also a daring element to your social life, and you’ll put a certain thrilling activity or game on repeat.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your planning skills are cosmically touched, and it’s more than worth your time and energy to brainstorm, fantasize and commit to some logistics. What goes on in your head and on paper now will bring excitement to your experience later. Future-you will thank planner-you and praise your brilliance.

God save the king!

East dealer.

Both sides vulnerable.

NORTH ♠K62 ♥9 8 5 ♦ A K 10 ♣9 7 4 2 WEST EAST ♠8 ♠ Q J 10 9 4 3 ♥J 6 2 ♥A ♦87543 ♦QJ9 ♣ 10 6 5 3 ♣K Q J SOUTH ♠A75 ♥ K Q 10 7 4 3 ♦62 ♣A 8 The bidding: East South West North 1♠ 2♥ Pass 3♥ 3♠ 4♥ Opening lead — eight of spades.

Declarer frequently has a choice of whether to win a trick in his own hand or in dummy. Obviously, no uniform rule can be applied to these situations — the right play depends strictly on the circumstances.

Consider the present case, where West led a spade that South could win in either hand. His potential losers were a spade, a club and either one or two hearts. It was clear that he could hold himself to one trump loser by leading a trump from dummy toward his K-Q-10,

since the bidding had marked East with the ace.

So declarer took the opening spade lead with dummy’s king in order to lead a trump. But when East won with the ace and returned the queen of spades, South was in trouble. He played the ace, trumped

by West, and declarer later lost a club and a spade and went down one.

South was certainly right in thinking that the first trump lead should come from dummy. But since it was almost certain from the bidding that East had six spades and West only one, declarer should have chosen his entries more carefully.

To protect against a 6-1 spade division, South should have won the spade lead in his hand, led a diamond to dummy’s king and then led a trump. East would win and return a spade, but this would no longer pose a threat.

West could ruff, but in that case dummy would play low, and South would lose only the ace of hearts, a club and a spade ruff. And if West did not ruff the spade return, dummy’s king would win, and South’s only losers would be a spade, a heart and a club.

Declarer’s choice of where to take the first trick made all the difference between winning and losing the contract.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

SUSTAINABLE GARDEN TOUR Thank you, Mindy Germain, Port Water District Commissioner, and ReWild Long Island, for creating the Sustainable Garden Tour. The Port Washington Water District (PWWD), as part of its “Do It for Port” water conservation campaign, invited Port residents to take place in a ‘show and tell’ of some of our neighbors’ earth friendly landscapes.

It was well worth my time. My husband and I spent a glorious morning learning about native plant gardening, picking up water conservation tips and connecting with our environmentally conscious neighbors.

In our own home, we are composting,

using a water barrel, and are finally in the process of purchasing a smart controller for our irrigation system (we are eligible to receive a $150 rebate through the PWWD!).

We will be saving on our water bills and protecting our sole source aquifer in our lovely coastal community of Port. And if we can do it, anyone can. It is so easy.

I hope this Sustainable Garden Tour 2022 becomes an annual event in Port, and like a beautiful perennial garden, spreads across all of Nassau County!

Thank you, Mindy, Raju and the wonderful ReWild Long Island Team.

—Michelle Schimel, Port Washington, NY

Modern Vietnamese Restaurant Opens On Main Street M O D E R N VIETNAMESE JoJu is located at 43b Main St. in Port Washington.

oJu, a modern Vietnamese fast-casual restaurant, held its grand opening on June 18. The chain originally opened in Elmhurst, Queens, and after eight years it opened another location in Midtown, Manhattan. Now, after 11 years, JoJu introduced its third location in Port Washington.

The restaurant serves traditional Vietnamese dishes with a modern twist.

Some of these additional flavors include other Asian elements, mixing Vietnamese, Korean and Japanese cuisine. Alongside these Asian influences, however, there are other flavors, like JoJu’s sweet caramel sauce.

Although these tastes are not included in traditional Vietnamese recipes, they come together to create a delicious dish.

Originating in Queens, a cultural melting pot, JoJu has experienced the merging of cultures first hand. For example, JoJu’s spicy green sauce was inspired by many of the locals in the area.

“A lot of places don’t usually have a spicy green sauce. We started that 10 years ago, and that was inspired directly from the locals in Queens, and it’s based off of a Peruvian aji verde sauce,” said Julie Wong, the chief operating officer (COO) and co-founder of JoJu. This influence on the menu serves as just another example of JoJu’s eagerness to adapt their menu to new influences and tastes.

“Our menu is very broad and there is something for everyone. If you’re looking for something more traditional or something 233105 S

more unique, it’s there for you,” said Wong.

JoJu’s willingness to take risks and try new things has served them well, as they have created up-and-coming food trends.

For example, the restaurant was the first to incorporate fried egg in banh mi sandwiches and use its runny yolk as a sauce. Although this is a popular dish now, JoJu’s innovation is what led to its creation.

Some of the most popular items on the menu, like the Bulgogi “Bomb Me” Sandwhich and the Kimchi Fries, reflect this daringness to try new flavors.

This willingness is part of what has led to the restaurant’s success. JoJu has been able to make a name for itself through its unique and distinctive menu. For example, in the three years prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, JoJu had a stand at the US Open, serving its patrons with its delicious banh mi sandwiches.

After this success in the Elmhurst and Midtown locations, Wong decided to branch out farther on Long Island.

“A lot of our customers from Elhurst or Queens moved out to Long Island and were telling us ‘you have to come here!’” said Wong.

In addition to catering towards their audience, JoJu’s team chose Port Washington in hopes to fill a culinary gap. The restaurant serves a new kind of cuisine that has been lacking in the area. With its introduction on Main Street, JoJu will bring recognition to Vietnamese culture while providing residents with more diverse dining options.

In addition to addressing the gap in Port Washington dining, JoJu aims to contribute to the town’s welcoming and cozy appearance.

After being in Elmhurst for 11 years, JoJu has been able to witness their impact on the

To the Jewish Community of New York

Compassionate care for Sinai Chapels families is now available at Riverside-Nassau North Chapels.

JoJu is open daily from 11:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.

Dear Friends, For four generations, Sinai Chapels has served New York’s Jewish community with compassion and care.

After over 40 years of personal commitment to Sinai Chapels, I have decided to close the Fresh Meadows chapel to spend more time with my family.

I will continue, however, to assist families as a consultant alongside many of Sinai’s longtime funeral directors who have also joined this accomplished team. RiversideNassau North Chapels specializes in all movements in the Jewish faith, and I personally selected them to serve families that have relied on Sinai Chapels for many years.

The new restaurant is decorated with posters showing off the yummy food offered.

community firsthand.

“At first when you open up, you ask ‘do we fit in here?’ And after just a few customers come in and chat with us we realize that we do belong here and that they love JoJu,” said Wong. “It’s almost like a long-lost friend or a return to your family, and it’s nice to see them after all the years we’ve been open.”

Although customers come and go from JoJu’s locations, there is a remembrance between the customer and establishment. JoJu and its patrons develop a strong relationship, and the staff recognizes their loyal and returning customers.

While opening a new location in Port Washington, Wong wanted to pay homage to the previous two JoJu locations. For example, “The Ten Commandments of JoJu” are written on the walls, a detail that was introduced in the Elmhurst location. These include sayings such as “thou shalt not forget the runny egg on the banh mi,” and “thou shalt

remember ‘sharing is caring’ does not apply at JoJu.” Including these commandments is one way that Wong hoped to incorporate JoJu’s first location in Port Washington.

Another example of this is the “Darling darling stand banh mi” sign that hangs in the entryway, a detail that is present in the Midtown location. With these two decor items, the Port Washington location serves as a blend of the past two locations.

Although this is JoJu’s third location, Wong travels between the three locations on a daily basis.

“We have goals everyday for our quality to be at the top,” said Wong.

JoJu’s staff is extremely dedicated to providing quality food that exceeds its customers’ expectations. With this dedication, and the menu’s delicious uniqueness, there is no doubt that the introduction of modern Vietnamese food will thrive in Port Washington.

Talented Port Kids Rock The 2022 Battle Of The Bands

n a fierce competition at the 2022 Bach To Rock Battle of the Bands, 20 bands went head-tohead at 89 North Music Venue in Patchogue, NY on Sunday, June 12th. Hundreds of proud parents, family members and fans came to support and cheer on students from B2R Port Washington.

The groups competed at the iconic Long Island venue and rocked the spectacular hotspot.

“The students, who range in age from 8 to 18, and their band coaches worked tirelessly to prepare for this epic, annual event and I’m beyond proud of all the performers,” said B2R Port Washington Director, Elana Hayden. “After the past two years with virtually no live performances, we were excited and beyond grateful for the opportunity to perform for a live audience at the fabulous 89 North.”

Three seasoned music industry professionals, Wayne Schuster (Blood, Sweat and Tears, Phoebe Snow), Amber Ferrari (Paula Cole, Taylor Dayne), and Carl Pfanstiehl (original B2R Director of Operations) judged the performances. Close to 100 students performed in three divisions— Elementary, Middle, and High School—all rocking 89 North.

“While this is a competition, the main point is for the kids to have a great experience, get to perform live—and to have fun and feel like a rock star!” said Hayden.

The bands were scored on several criteria including musical ability, technical ability, stage presence, material, creativity and professionalism. All the competitors study a variety of musical

disciplines at Bach to Rock music school on Port Washington Boulevard, including music theory, instrument instruction, recording arts, performance arts, voice lessons and band coaching.
