LOCAL PORT WASHINGTON NEWS

Port Community Chest’s Executive Director Retires

BY CAROLINE RYAN

J

cryan@antonmediagroup.com

ulie Meer, executive director of The Community Chest of Port Washington retired from her position on June 30. The Community Chest is a nonprofit organization established to help raise and distribute funds to qualified charities whom are dedicated to improving the Port Washington community for all residents.

Meer has worked in the nonprofit field for 30 years and has a background in accounting. She previously volunteered her time with other nonprofit organizations such as the Parent Resource Center, Teen Center and the Ed. Foundation.

Meer’s initial goal as executive director of the Community Chest was to increase the amount of money the nonprofit was raising each year.

“One of the direct objectives that any person in fundraising has is to increase the amount that they’re raising, which we have done,” Meer said. “I’ve probably doubled what we bring in since that time. But some of the more interesting highlights of the work that I do is connecting with and interfacing with members of the community. We have five major events a year and I get to work with volunteers, participants and donors. It’s really one of the best parts of the job—to be present and part of these community events. People really appreciate the events that we put on and obviously there’s a direct benefit to the Community Chest because we’re raising money.”

The Community Chest’s fundraising events have become iconic traditions in Port Washington, Meer stated.

“We put on these community events and people feel so strongly about them—it means something to them and it turns Port Washington into a community, instead of just a town,” Meer said. “We’ve had people who participate in events who come back and volunteer, and that’s a beautiful thing.”

Money that is raised through fundraising efforts is then given back to the community, which Meer explained is her favorite and the most meaningful part of having worked for the Community Chest for the past 11 years.

“We give out hundreds of thousands of dollars a year,” Meer said. “What did I like the most? We are helping people.

I’m seeing with my own eyes, people

Julie with her children and husband Neil Lazar. who have been helped. It’s incredibly moving and meaningful when you get to see that upfront.”

Meer stated that the largest change that has taken place over the last 11 years is the use of social media and how the nonprofit raises funds.

“People are not really accessing social service—giving through the mail anymore, although it is still a major way we raise money,” Meer said. “People really like to give through social media, so we are trying to shift towards that.

Our events have also grown. People really enjoy participating in fundraising events. In the last 10 years the Thanksgiving Day Run has grown from 800 to more than 3,000 participants. I also think people really enjoy people doing their own fundraising. The needs haven’t really changed over the last 11 years but the way that we do the fundraising has changed.”

When the pandemic struck, the Community Chest sprang to action to help the Port community during hard times. In March 2020, the Community Chest convened a working group to establish a COVID-19 fund. In addition to raising money, the Chest also

created initiatives as they saw a need, everything from making fabric face masks to helping seniors get necessary home deliveries and more.

“We developed an initiative called the Port Pantry Supply Squad, where we noted that our outreach families did not have access to paper and personal care products,” Meer said. “We did some bulk purchasing and we distributed these bags of food every month to our outreach families through the community faith based organizations we’re working with.”

The Community Chest also started a program called “Meat the Need,” where they deliver meat to food pantries in the area; they help to coordinate vaccine appointments in the town, provide people with probono legal advice, give out meal and laundry vouchers and more.

Meer, who has been with the Community Chest for nearly 11 years, stated that leaving the nonprofit was a very hard decision for her.

“This job for me was great,” Meer said. “They say that you make a happy life by helping others and I definitely felt like this was a great place for me.

This job for me was all encompassing.

I took it very seriously. I was always thinking about how I could do better and what more I could do.”

After retiring, Meer plans to focus on spending more time with her family, traveling and visiting friends.

“While I’m not suggesting that [totally] I’m retiring from work, I don’t think it’s a bad time to take a pause in the middle and spend some time thinking about what I want to do—what makes me happy,” Meer said. “I don’t think I’m too old to keep working, I just don’t know what’s next on my plate.”

Drew Hershowitz, president of Community Chest shared his sentiments with the Port Washington News, following Meer’s retirement.

“Julie’s passion for the Chest’s mission shines bright every day,” Hershowitz, president of Community Chest said. “Her thoughtful leadership, expertise and commitment has made a tremendous impact in our community that will last for many years to come.”

Meer’s final day at the Community Chest is on June 30 and her advice to the community is to continue working hard towards helping those in need.

“I feel like it can be easy to forget about people that you don’t know,” Meer said. “I really want people to know that it takes effort to continue to make this town into the wonderful community that it is. Whether it’s by volunteering or participating, not necessarily just with the Community Chest, but participating with nonprofit organizations in town to make sure that everyone is taken care of. I would just like everyone to remind themselves that there are people in need in our town and let’s not forget about them.”

Meer also expressed gratitude for those that have helped her throughout the past 11 years.

“I want to thank my coworker Shelly Persaud, my board chair Drew Hershkowitz and the entire board, my husband Neil Lazar, who is also a board member and my children “who had a lot less of me while I was working here,” Meer said.

Baxter’s Pond Basin Dredged

Nassau County Legislator Delia DeRiggi-Whitton (D-Glen Cove) is proud to announce that the dredging of Baxter’s Pond basin in Port Washington is now complete.

Baxter’s Pond and the stream that flows into it are fed by both underground streams and runoff caused by rain and snowstorms. A screen in a catchment basin near the Pond’s foot bridge normally traps discarded trash from nearby streets and silted sand.

However, a buildup that accumulated over time began to obstruct the flow of water and cause some debris was overflowing into the Pond.

To maintain the health of the pond and protect nearby Manhasset Bay, Legislator DeRiggi-Whitton secured funding for Nassau County’s Department of Public Works to clear

the catch basin and dredge excess mud and debris before the basin so that water can more easily flow into the pond.

Town Recognized As A “Tree City USA”

T

own of North Hempstead Supervisor Judi Bosworth and the Town Board are pleased to announce that the town has once again been recognized as a “Tree City USA” by the Arbor Day Foundation.

This is the tenth year that the town has received the designation of “Tree City USA.” This designation is given out to towns and cities that have a viable tree management plan and program. In order to be eligible to be recognized as a “Tree City USA” community, certain requirements must be met such as having a Tree Board or Department, having a Tree Care Ordinance, having a Community Forestry Program and the observance of Arbor Day. “We are proud to be celebrating the Town’s 10th year being recognized by the Arbor Day Foundation for our commitment to the environment, especially in planting and caring for our trees,” Bosworth said. “It is important for us

to preserve our local environment here in the Town of North Hempstead, and ensure it remains resilient for future generations.”

The “Tree City USA” program was created by the Arbor Day Foundation, which is the nation’s leading community forestry program that provides a foundation for effective and well-organized community tree care. It is also facilitated in cooperation with the USDA Forest Service and the New York Department of Environmental Conservation. This program provides direction, technical assistance, public attention, and national recognition for urban and community forestry programs in thousands of towns and cities that more than 93 million Americans call home.

For more information, call 311 or 516-869-6311.

Town Completes Beautification Projects Town of North Hempstead Supervisor Judi Bosworth and Councilmembers Veronica Lurvey and Mariann Dalimonte recently announced a slate of beautification projects for the Manhasset and Port Washington area. This includes the conversion to LED street lighting along Plandome Road and Main Street, newly painted lampposts and the addition of planters.

“The Town is always looking for new projects that will enhance the quality of life for our residents,” Bosworth said. “The conversion to LED lights, repainting of the lampposts, and the addition of lovely planters will help enhance both the beauty and safety of our community for residents and visitors, alike.”

“The LED lights, planters and painted lampposts are truly a beautiful sight to see along Plandome Road,” Lurvey said. “They help beautify our streets and make them safer for drivers

and pedestrians.”

“The town removed the existing fence which will help return the area to a more natural setting for all to enjoy.

The black lampposts on Main Street also add to our local downtown’s character and splendor,” Councilmember Dalimonte said.

One hundred eighty lampposts along Plandome Road in Manhasset and Main Street in Port Washington have been replaced with more energy efficient LED lightbulbs and the lampposts have been repainted with a fresh coat of paint.

North Hempstead’s Highway Department also assisted in adding flags and flower planters on the lampposts along Plandome Road. The flowers were donated by the Manhasset Chamber of Commerce as part of its Adopt-A-Pole and Planter project. The planters are maintained by the town.

TOPISLAND STORY AROUND LONG

Standing By Her Man

County Executive: Police Commissioner job is safe

BY FRANK RIZZO AND ANTHONY MURRAY

editorial@antonmediagroup.com

O

n June 18, presiding over the swearing-in of 161 new police recruits—including his son Liam—Nassau County Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder tearfully proclaimed that he would not be resigning after what he told reporters was a rough couple of weeks. Ryder’s comments to Newsday last month blaming broken families on the paucity of minority representation in the force drew calls for his resignation from civil rights groups and even police fraternal organizations.

However, the only person who could remove him—County Executive Laura Curran—stood firmly against the demands for his firing, even as Ryder’s critics pointedly called for putting pressure on her in this election year.

“I have full confidence in Commissioner Ryder’s leadership of the police department, and he will be staying in his position,” Curran said in a statement released June 21.

“Commissioner Ryder has championed the community policing model now being embraced nationwide as part of reform efforts. We will continue to focus on keeping Nassau safe while moving forward with police reform that builds trust between law enforcement and the communities they serve, including implementation of body cameras by the end of the year and a new committee to help diversify the department.”

On that same day, hundreds of people showed up in front of the

At the rally, which was surrounded by a heavy police presence, people took turns at the podium stating why they want Ryder to stay where he is.

In an interview with Anton Media Group last month, Ryder admitted that despite heavy recruitment, it was difficult to hire minorities. He noted that in a recent police exam, only half of minority applicants had shown up. Though they make up 17.5 percent and 11.3 percent respectively of the county population,

Superintendent Jason R. Marra Wins NYSRP Award

BY MICHELE SIEGEL

T

his past year has been a challenge, to say the least. And although we all face adversity every now and then, for Great Neck Park District Superintendent, Jason R. Marra, the pandemic added an extra obstacle which he didn’t let get in his way. Instead, he found a system to navigate around the roadblocks and used it as an opportunity to give back to his profession, as well as encouraging and educating others to do the same.

Not many people know that Marra has been involved in the New York State Recreation and Park Society throughout his career. The New York State Recreation and Park Society, founded in 1940, is the principal organization for promoting quality recreation and park opportunities for all citizens of NYS through education, training, technical assistance and other support to local, county, state and federal recreation and park providers. Marra currently serves on the Executive Board of NYSRPS as Vice President of Professional

Development (two year term thru ’22).

Previously, Marra served as a Region 1 Representative for Hudson Valley, Long Island, Metro and Westchester.

His commitment doesn’t end there

as he is also involved as a member of the Communication and Public Awareness Committee and this year, he spearheaded the Conference Committee for the first virtual State Conference in 2021, which was a complete success. Working alongside Jason during the conference were Great Neck Park District staff including Assistant Superintendent Anthony DiDomenico, IT Director Mitchell Cohen and Recreation Aide Robert Campbell.

During the virtual conference, Marra was awarded the Robert A. Miner Award 2021. The criteria for the award includes being a member of any section of NYSRPS; an individual who is actively involved in the Society and in activities related to the field of leisure services; an individual who has unselfishly contributed time, expertise, and effort to further the principles and goals of the field of leisure services. He was nominated by his peers and the awards committee determined the winner.

“Jason is a quintessential “Good Guy” for the State Society, stepping up to serve in a multitude of ways,” Lisa I.

Morahan, New York State Recreation and Park Society Executive Director said. “He not only extends himself as VP of Professional Development on our Executive Board, but he is actively engaged with our committees, as well. He was a key point person for the NYSRPS 2021 Annual Conference.

Thanks to Jason and his team at the Great Neck Park District we were able to offer an incredible virtual experience to participants across New York State and beyond. Jason is appreciated by his peers and respected by his staff always giving 100 percent to all he does, meeting needs and exceeding expectations. We are truly honored to have such a dedicated “Good Guy” as a member of NYSRPS.” Kudos to Great Neck Park District Superintendent, Jason R. Marra and congratulations for receiving this well-deserved award. A big thank you from the Great Neck Park District Board and staff to Superintendent Marra for his dedication and hard work. We are lucky to have him on our team.

Empathy Walk Unites Asian American And Jewish Teens To Promote Solidarity Local teens put the words “hate has no home here” into action at the Sid Jacobson JCC’s Center for Community Engagement’s first Empathy Walk, a social justice and leadership program.

The walk brought together 30 teens from local high school Asian American Culture clubs and Jewish teens from SJJCC’s Teen Services programs to create an action step against the recent increase in acts of bias, hate and intolerance. Assemblywoman Gina Sillitti partnered with the JCC on the program and attended, walking in solidarity with the local teens.

“I’m so incredibly proud of the students that participated in our pilot Empathy Walk,” Assemblywoman Sillitti said. “These young people took time to learn about each other’s cultures, biases, and experiences. We hope that through this program, we can learn that we are more alike than we are different, and start to put an end to the

hate, bias, and violence in our nation.”

Participants were paired together on the walk and given a list of questions to ask their partner while embarking on a scavenger hunt to locate hidden shoe boxes along the route. Inside each shoebox was one shoe and several props for the groups to discuss.

The goal was to try to uncover the

story of the person. At the end of the discussion, leaders revealed the other shoe and the story. Each story touched on relevant issues including issues of anti-Semitism, Asian hate, race, gender and LGBTQ bias and mental illness.

At the end of the exercise, participants learned about unconscious bias and judgment and were more comfortable

sharing their own stories and experiences.

“The goal of our Empathy Walk is to create a safe space for young leaders to listen and learn from one another,” Susan Berman, Director of the Center for Community Engagement, Sid Jacobson JCC, said. “We are asking them to take a moment to walk in someone else’s shoes.”

SJJCC’s Center for Community Engagement plans to hold future Empathy Walks for various age groups and communities to help create awareness and understanding that will result in position actions amongst attendees.

Village Of Farmingdale Launches Main Street Business Improvement District First BID to be established in Nassau County in two decades

BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

T

he latest example of municipalities rebounding from the economic wallop of the pandemic is the recent announcement that the Village of Farmingdale is forming the Main Street Business Improvement District (BID).

A BID is a commercial district that assembles funds to be used to collectively enhance the area within its boundaries.

This new BID allows the merchants to better plan and pay for maintenance and enhancements to the Farmingdale Downtown that may be inadequately handled by government via existing tax revenues. Some examples of what funds can be used for would be street cleaning, snow removal, advertising, special events, security cameras, a directory kiosk, capitol

improvements, etc. The BID can also apply for grant money from federal, state and local municipalities to promote downtown business. The Main Street BID will encompass the portion of Main Street from

Prospect Street to N Front Street, just past the railroad tracks. This constitutes a major economic milestone as there hasn’t been a new business improvement district in Nassau County in more than 20 years. Farmingdale’s BID Board of Directors is comprised of village business owners Nick DeVito (president), Tony Kathreptis (vice president), Walter Priestley (secretary), Joe Fortuna (treasurer), Maria Josephine Winant, Chris Werle, Christina Bisbee, Bill Carman and Joe Garcia.

At the most recent count, 63 businesses are joining the Main Street BID. According to DeVito, the idea came up a few years back and only started to formulate in 2019.

“It took some time to coordinate; get everyone on board, establish the Guidelines, select

a board of directors, etc.,” he said. “Also, there was some resistance to the initial proposal, so we worked with the members to find something that was more suitable.”

The establishment of a BID in the Village of Farmingdale goes back to an initial attempt roughly 15 to 20 years ago.

DeVito explained its failure to take was due to a lack of support from local business owners. It’s a situation that has changed in recent years.

“Currently, there seems to be a better spirit of cooperation and enthusiasm to work together, not only for special events, like Music on Main, Parades, Festivals, etc., but for the everyday welfare of the Downtown,” DeVito explained.

Among the projects and initiatives the BID has on its wish list are more advertising to promote what’s going on in the

village via signage at the train station and other locations, trolley service, the purchase of security cameras and possibly a marquee. For DeVito and the rest of the board, the establishment of a BID couldn’t have come at a better time.

“Without the Business Improvement District, it will be difficult to raise funding for collective advertising, special events, security and snow removal from walkways,” he said. “Many of these things are not the responsibility of the village government to pay for through resident taxes. Since we have had the BID in place, we can also apply for grant money from federal, state and local municipalities for our projects.”

Breakout Season For MacArthur Lacrosse

BY JAMES ROWAN

levittown@antonmediagroup.com

It was a breakout year for the MacArthur boys lacrosse program. Head coach John Nessler led the Generals to the Nassau County Final Four and a 9-5 overall record.

“The MacArthur program has many individuals that have gone on to play in college, win National Championships, become All-Americans, but there hasn’t been a team accomplishment like us making the Final Four,” Nessler said.

The season started off with an impressive 10-9 win over Massapequa, who were the defending New York State champions and ranked 8th in the country at the time.

What followed were a string of highlight reel victories over perennial contenders such as South Side and Roslyn. On four occasions, the Generals rallied in the

fourth quarter to win games, including an 11-10 overtime win over Long Beach.

“It’s a great group of all-around athletes,” Nessler said. “Many of our players are two or three-sport athletes. That has certainly helped them prepare for the many challenges that this

tough conference presented.

We knew every game was going to be a battle, but we also knew that we belonged there and we had something to prove. We played with a little bit of a chip on our shoulders and that was something that helped us in those close ones.”

The Generals were led by All County selections James Napoli, Joey Forchelli, Matt Papach, Vinny Butrico and Michael Cassano. Honorable mention All County picks Luca Runyan and Nick DelGrosso as well as All Conference players Connor Cullen and Brian Connelly.

John Rebaudo was the Unsung Hero and Nessler earned Coach of the Year Honors.

Additional top performers were Steven Weber, Vincenzo Montefusco, Cian Runyan, Ryan Larkin and Matt Schwann.

MacArthur opened the playoffs with a 19-5 win over rival East Meadow before meeting Carey in the county semifinals. While the Generals beat Carey, 14-9 in the regular season, they dropped a close 12-7 rematch in the playoffs.

Nessler returns 10 starters from this year’s team and is

very optimistic about next season.

“I think every team strives to set a goal of at least a County Championship, but now we can look in the mirror and honestly say, we expect that,” Nessler said.

“We have put in the work, gotten the experience, and learned from our losses. We know that it will certainly not be an easy feat, but we’re up to the challenge.”

In more lacrosse news, the Division girls lacrosse team wrapped up a terrific season.

The Dragons posted a 10-4 record before losing in the playoffs to Friends Academy.

Division was led by juniors Juliana Stanley (61 goals, 17 assists) and Maggie McCabe (31 and 23) and senior Katie Stroud (12 and 9).

Senior Elizabeth Petrellese anchored the defense with a strong season as goalkeeper.

2020 Water Quality Report Available For Hicksville Residents

T

he Hicksville Water District’s (HWD) is proud to announce that its 2020 Water Quality Report is available for all residents to review. The report, which is available on the district’s website, www. hicksvillewater.org, was also mailed to every resident’s home and once again confirms the district’s ability to continually deliver residents with high-quality drinking water.

“We encourage all residents to review the District’s Annual Water Quality Report as it provides them with a greater confidence in the quality of their tap water,” HWD Chairman Karl Schweitzer said. “In

addition to the various parameters we routinely test for and their results, this report also offers a closer glimpse at the services the water district provides to the community as well as other important item such as rates. We take an immense amount of pride in the product being delivered to customers and this report will help residents understand why.”

The report, which is verified for accuracy by the Nassau County Health Department, shows that the water being delivered to Hicksville residents is under the maximum contamination level (MCL) of 38 different potential water contaminants. Additionally, the

district conducts more than 10,000 water quality tests every year. Tests are also conducted for more than 135

different contaminants and they have remained undetected, ensuring they are not a threat to the community’s water quality.

Visit www.hicksvillewater.org/hwd/ water-quality-report to directly view the 2020 Water Quality Report online.

Residents who have not received a physical copy of the report can request one by contacting the district at info@hicksvillewater.org or calling 516-931-0184. Residents are also encouraged to reach out to the district should they have any questions, concerns or need additional clarity.

Mayor Daniel Pearl of Massapequa Park and the board of trustees recently passed an extension of the nine-month building permit amnesty program that was set to expire in at the end of July. The program will now expire at the end of the year and allows residential property owners to legalize work that was done without a building permit without paying the extra charges assessed for the failure to apply for a permit prior to the work commencing.

“After seeing the success of the amnesty program, the board of trustees and I, decided to extend it for the duration of the 2021 calendar year to give

additional homeowners the opportunity to take advantage of this great program,” Pearl said.

The program includes legalizing work done prior to an owner having taken title to their house.

At the conclusion of this calendar year, the amnesty program will expire and the permit fees, including the extra charges for work having been done without a permit will apply.

For more information about the program, residents can contact the building department at 516-798-0244.

Harbor Child Care Honors First Responders In mid-March of 2020, Harbor Child Care closed for what was supposed to be a two-week period to “flatten the curve” regarding COVID-19, and reopened its doors on June 1, 2020. During that time, and subsequently, Harbor Child Care has had to pivot on a dime regarding myriad issues. The facility endures the often-changing regulations from healthcare organizations and licensing agencies.

As part of the efforts to give back to the communities, Harbor Child Care held a Drive-By Grab & Go Lunch for first responders of Glen Cove on May 26. A beautiful display of food tables, balloons and thank you signs made

by Harbor’s teachers and children welcomed first responders. Chef Moris Café and

Glen Cove first responders La Placita Market provided a delicious array of wraps, empanadas and sandwiches.

The event was Harbor’s way of saying thank you to the brave men and women who put their lives on the line each and every day, especially during these difficult times.

The children and staff were amazed by the outpouring

of support from the City of Glen Cove Volunteer Fire Department, the City of Glen Cove EMS, and the Glen Cove Police Department. A parade of fire trucks took center stage.

Glen Cove July 4 Celebration Glen Cove will be the place to celebrate July 4th this year.

The entertainment for the evening begins at 7:30 p.m. with Orchestra Long Island conducted by David Stewart Wiley presenting a grand salute to American music. The City of Glen Cove’s spectacular annual fireworks display begins immediately following the concert.

The evening’s events take place at Morgan Memorial Park.

The City of Glen Cove’s traditional July 4th fireworks display by fireworks master, Grucci,

begins with the Orchestra’s performance of Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture, the exciting work that’s become closely associated with fireworks.

Morgan Memorial Park is located in Glen Cove on Germaine Street between Landing Road and McLoughlin Street. In case of rain, the concert and fireworks display will take place on July 5, also beginning at 7:30 p.m. There is no admission fee but donations to MPSMF will be accepted.

Amended Remedy Issued For Crown Dykman Superfund The Department of Environmenal Conservation (DEC) has issued an amended remedy to address contamination at the Crown Dykman Superfund Site at 66 Herb Hill Rd. in Glen Cove.

The estimated cost to implement the remedy is $4,700,000. A public comment period was set from March 24 through April 23 to

provide an opportunity for the public to comment on the proposed changes. The comments received during the public comment period, along with the administrative record, were considered in preparing the final ROD Amendment for the site.

Pursuant to Executive Order 202.15, a public meeting was not held in effort to

limit the community spread of COVID-19.

The following is a summary of the chosen remedy described in the ROD Amendment: • Demolition of the on-site building and removal of the slab foundation.

• Source removal through excavation of contaminated soil to approximately 15

feet below surface grade in the southwestern portion of the property. Disposal of contaminated soil off-site at a permitted facility.

• In-place chemical oxidation treatment of chlorinated solvent contaminants in the site’s groundwater plume.

• Backfill with clean material that meets the established

Soil Cleanup Objectives for commercial use.

• Development and implementation of a Site Management Plan to monitor the effectiveness of the remedy.

Senator Kaplan Speaks Out About White Supremacist Hate Mail

ast week, State Senator Anna M. Kaplan (D-North Hills) received a vile piece of hate mail using well-known white supremacist, anti-Semitic hate speech in response to a mailer providing information about the COVID-19 vaccine to residents in Nassau County. Senator Kaplan, who is Jewish, and an outspoken voice against hatred and anti-Semitism, is the first refugee elected to the New York State Legislature, having fled her birth country due to the threat of anti-Semitic violence.

“This incident is a sad reminder that Nassau County is not immune to hatred and white supremacy, and it’s our responsibility as a community to forcefully reject this evil whenever it reveals itself among us,” Kaplan said.

“As a former religious refugee who fled anti-Semitism in my birth country, I have seen first-hand how anti-Semitism begins to permeate a society and ultimately lead to violence against Jewish people. That experience has taught me the importance of sounding the alarm against hate at every

The incident has been reported to the Nassau County Police, and it is being actively investigated.

“We all deserve to live in a community free from hatred and bias, and I’m extremely grateful for the efforts Anti-vaccination, anti-woman and anti-Semitic mail that was sent to State of our Nassau County Police for their Senator Anna Kaplan.

County Executive Signs Executive Order Adopting IHRA Working Definition Of Anti-Semitism Nassau County Executive Laura Curran signed last week an executive order officially recognizing the non-legally binding International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) Working Definition of AntiSemitism, an important guidance tool for monitoring and raising awareness about the contexts in which anti-Semitic acts and harassment takes place.

The executive order directs all county departments and officials in the county to be guided by the IHRA Working Definition of Anti-Semitism, in complying with, implementing and enforcing laws or regulations that prohibit acts of anti-Semitic discrimination or harassment.

“In order to combat anti-Semitism effectively, it is important to be clear about what it is and how it may manifest itself,” Curran said. “With anti-Semitism on the rise, Nassau County stands with our Jewish brothers and sisters and will continue fighting to ensure hatred never finds a

“The definition, which has been adopted by more than 30 countries, including the U.S., and numerous multilateral bodies, is the definitive definition of anti-Semitism,” they said.

“At a time when the Jewish community has seen a rise in not only traditional anti-Semitism, but a new anti-Semitism that seeks to demonize and delegitimize Israel, a clear understanding of what anti-Semitism is, is essential to combating this evil.”

Mindy Perlmutter, executive director of the Jewish Community Relations Council Long Island (JCRCLI) concluded, “The JCRC-LI strongly supports the adoption and utilization of the IHRA Working Definition of Anti-Semitism as a resource for education and guidance in Nassau County.

With anti-Semitism on the rise, it must be met with condemnation and action. We applaud County Executive Laura Curran for her leadership and conviction.”

LETTER TO THE EDITOR MIDDLE NECK ROAD: A DISASTER I regularly have to drive through the war zone in Great Neck, otherwise known as Middle Neck Road. The rides are unique on Long Island in terms of their choppiness, straining the riders and tormenting the motor vehicles.

The asphalt was partially removed for placing pipes, but the new pieces of asphalt were paved neglectfully, with substantial differences of level with the rest of the road.

Supposedly, new asphalt is going to be poured at the

end of the summer but in the meantime something needs to be done to smoothen the road, e.g., filler asphalt can be added and tamped.

Middle Neck Road is the main artery of the peninsula, which passes through the villages of Great Neck Plaza, Great Neck Estates, Great Neck and Kings Point, and the unincorporated areas of Town of North Hempstead.

Middle Neck Road is a county road. Its repair and maintenance are

“mishandled” by Nassau County. One might be misinformed and think that the mayors of the villages or the Town of North Hempstead supervisor, should be reached for mitigating the “repairs.”

The mayors and the town supervisor do not have any jurisdictions whatsoever for the repairs of this road.

Our representative for Great Neck area in the Nassau County Legislature, Ellen Birnbaum, should have gotten involved already. The

residents need not to wait until the end of the summer when the county is going to pour new asphalt.

However, while neglecting the opportunities to serve her constituents, Birnbaum does not miss the best photo ops such as picking up garbage on the land next to Piccadilly Road on “Earth Day” or showing up at the COVID vaccine site arranged by other officials.

LET SCHOOL DISTRICTS DECIDE ON MASK POLICY Before the end of the 2021 school year, parents, teachers and school board members throughout Long Island began requesting that the freedom to decide proper mask protocol be given to the school districts themselves. While Governor Andrew Cuomo announced that school districts are now allowed to decide for themselves if masks are necessary for children and staff during outside activities, he is still mandating that schools require masks indoors for staff and students.

If Governor Cuomo refuses to lift his mandate for in-school masks because, as he says, the CDC guidance calls for masks to be worn for all indoor school activities, we ignore the reality that the CDC guidance, unfortunately, applies uniformly to all 50 states. The CDC guidance regarding masks inside schools has not taken into consideration the low rate of transmission in New York or all of the steps taken by the various school districts on Long Island to keep our students

and staff safe. In fact, the New York State PTA has voiced its opinion on this matter and states that they will “continue to support a parent’s choice in whether or not their child will wear a mask in a school building, or outside on school grounds.” Furthermore, they have asked the CDC to reconsider their guidance on a state-by-state basis, which makes the most sense to me.

This incremental shift in the state mandate regarding school masks seems to be an attempt to match the school guidance with the governor’s mandates for summer camps in New York. Currently, the children attending summer camp in New York will not be required to wear a mask, indoors or outdoors, although it is strongly advised for the unvaccinated. In my opinion, there is no reason why there should be a one-size fits all approach with regard to our public or private schools.

Regardless of New York State Health Commissioner Dr. Zucker’s recent letter to the CDC and the confusion that

it caused, it appears that even he wants to move forward with lifting a mask mandate for schools and to let the individual districts decide their indoor and outdoor protocol on their own.

This pandemic has demonstrated how resilient our schools and teachers have been in teaching our students. From immediately and suddenly introducing a program of remote learning, to implementing a hybrid model of in-person instruction combined with remote learning to a system of total in-person instruction, our schools and students have done the very best they could under the circumstances they have faced. It was no small task and they made it work!

It is for these reasons that I believe the governor should make the decision to allow each individual school district the same autonomy with regard to masks during indoor activities that he gave to them with regard to outdoor activities, whether it be at the end of this school year or the

beginning of the new school year in September. Schools know the configuration of their classrooms and their community better than the Albany bureaucracy. I think we can all agree that individual school districts will only go maskless indoors when the parents and staff of that school determine that they can safely do so.

At least three Long Island districts—Sachem, Patchogue-Medford and Massapequa—announced that they are ignoring the new guidance from the state’s education department and have made masks optional.

Let’s support a system where other school districts aren’t forced into the same situation of choosing to ignore state guidance. Let’s give each school district the freedom to work with parents, students and staff to determine the policy that’s best for that individual school district.

—Laura Schaefer Schaefer (R–Westbury) represents the 14th Legislative District in the Nassau County Legislature.

Appreciating Our Nation’s Independence And Freedom This July 4th marks the 245th anniversary of the presentation and acceptance of the Declaration of Independence, one of the most significant events in world history.

Declaration were remarkably courageous. Everyone who signed the Declaration risked being hung by British forces as a traitor. Their unshakeable belief in the cause of liberty gave them the strength to take on the might of an empire that stretched around the world.

The signers included some of the wealthiest men in America. They risked losing everything, impoverishing

their families. They believed that freedom and liberty were God-given rights, not rights given by government.

Our Founding Fathers were far from perfect. The America they created was not perfect. It took a bloody civil war to finally remove the stain of slavery from our nation and another 100 years to extend civil rights

Our Love Affair With Coffee Americans have always had a love affair with coffee. Joe, java, brew, liquid caffeine or whatever you choose to call it, the brown liquid has been a large part of our diet since 1689, when North America’s first coffee house opened in Boston, MA. Cowboys brewed it over open flames, while homesteaders made it on cast iron stoves. Currently, more than 60 percent of American adults consume coffee daily and most adults 55 and older drink at least one cup per day.

Per year, Americans drink around 150 billion cups of liquid caffeine. Quite a sizeable sum, especially if you consider teens and young adults who also enjoy their daily frappe or latte from Starbucks.

The love affair spans the generations. Whether or not this is a good thing remains fodder for future columns, but the fact remains: Americans love their java.

Hubby, daughter and I are avid coffee drinkers. When my husband was still working, he had a Dunkin’ habit that was hard to kick. Our daughter preferred the brew from Starbucks, as did I. When we sat down to figure out how much we were spending monthly on take-out brew, we realized we had a bit of a problem. It was time to cut back.

Our parents and grandparents referred to “coffee” as a jar of Sanka or Savarin, freeze-dried crystals that were bitter to the taste.

Home-brewed coffee was reserved for special times, like when company came over.

Freeze-dried instant coffees also had an oily residue which I referred to as an “oil slick” over the top of the coffee. This would never be an option

What the signers of the Declaration created, however, was something unique in the history of the world. A

SEE YOU AROUND THE TOWN Patty Servidio

Bodum’s specialty is a broad line of French press coffee makers

for a coffee aficionado like Hubby, who shuddered at the thought of drinking instant coffee.

I will always think of my Dad, who drank a cup of Sanka over his puffed rice every morning. I shudder at the memory of that aroma, or rather, malodorous combination.

When Hubby retired, we decided that daily treks to the coffee shop would quickly land us in debt.

Years ago, I had gotten a small stove-top percolator from Mom, which had taken up residence in the pantry.

After reading a how-to online, I found that I had made one of the finest cups of coffee this side of the Rockies. It was flavorful, full of aroma and fresh. Best of all, it was free.

For several months, I made government of the people, by the people and for the people.

The nation that they helped create has had the strength and flexibility over time to become a more just society. And the words of the Declaration have

coffee every morning in the stove-top percolator. It was tasty but seemed to be a little light, more like diner coffee, which is a deliciously brewed beverage, but Hubby preferred a more robust brew.

Several years ago, I purchased a French press from IKEA when I realized that my single-serve Bodum press was too small for morning coffee.

The IKEA press could accommodate four cups of water, which meant that Hubby and I could each enjoy a cup without having to start the process from the beginning.

However, the filter never fully sealed over the grounds.

What we ended up with was a mouth full of coffee shards, unless we filtered the coffee through both a handheld strainer and a paper towel.

After a few months of this

tedious process, we purchased a larger Bodum press from Home Goods off the clearance rack, which was one of the best buys we had made in quite some time. Frenchpressed coffee is rich, full of flavor and usually has a bit of froth on top when poured. It is also delicious and easy to make.

As Hubby and I have been downsizing, we were clearing out the attic and found a few coffee-related “relics”.

An old Regal 30-cup coffee maker that had once been used for large gatherings was perched beside our old drip coffee maker and a plug-in percolator used for family get-togethers.

I also found an old Moka for espresso. I decided that we would return to their use in the fall when the

preferred temperature of coffee is piping hot. While the flavor brewed from these older-styled coffee makers is 100 percent better than a K-cup’s mild flavor, the convenience of a single-serve machine won me over.

Whether you perk, press, drip or use pre-measured pods, coffee is one of Life’s most delicious flavors. A cup in the morning can help to put a bounce in your step, while a sip after dinner is the perfect way to end a wonderful meal.

Iced, latte-style, a foamy cappuccino or piping hot in a delightful mug, as Thomas Jefferson stated, “coffee is the favorite drink of the civilized world.” Excuse me while I make myself an Americano.

SCHOOL NEWS

MASSAPEQUA GRADUATES A CLASS OF COURAGE AND STRENGTH They survived a year with so many twists and turns and so many ups and downs, Massapequa High School Principal Barbara Lowell said of this year’s graduating class during an outdoor ceremony at Hofstra University’s Shuart Stadium on June 21. Lowell, herself a Massapequa alumna, praised the 546 members of the Class of 2021 for their courage and perseverance.

“Our seniors did not let it stop them,” she said of the disruptions caused by the global pandemic. “They were able to complete their 13 years in Massapequa Public Schools with grace and success.”

The venue allowed for an in-person ceremony, with guests spread out throughout the large seating areas which lined three sides of the field.

Graduates sat socially distanced, but without masks, so the smiles were visible.

Lowell noted that she first met this highly talented group of students several years ago, when they were seventh graders and she was an administrator at Berner Middle School. Almost six years later, they are officially alumni of a National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence.

Delia O’Farrell noted that no person achieves success on their own, so she took a few moments to thank those who have supported the Class of 2021, including their families, friends, teachers and administrators. She, too, reflected on the challenges of the past year and a half and how her class overcame those obstacles individually and collectively.

“If there’s one thing I see in the Class of 2021, it’s strength,” O’Farrell said. “We took this school year on and made it our own. The Class of 2021 is strong. The Class of 2021 does not give up.”

Graduates stand in front of family members at the Village Moving Up ceremony.

SYOSSET FIFTH GRADE STUDENTS ADVANCE On June 16 and 18, fifth grade students from the Syosset elementary schools participated in moving up ceremonies as they celebrated the culmination of their elementary education and advancement to the secondary level. The students, eager and well-prepared to enter H.B. Thompson or South Woods Middle School this fall, beamed with excitement and pride as they came together to celebrate their accomplishments in front of audiences during outdoor ceremonies at their respective schools.

During the ceremonies, fifth graders

from A.P. Willits, Berry Hill, J. Irving Baylis, Robbins Lane, South Grove, Village and Walt Whitman were honored with multiple awards, from academic awards to recognitions for their participation in student council, NYSSMA, and the character education program PRIDE, to name a few. They were commended not only for educational achievements, but for their strong character development throughout their years at the elementary level.

WE LOVE OUR PETS Dog Parks And Your Dog

BY HARRIET MEYERS

specialsections@antonmediagroup.com

Is Your Dog Ready for a Dog Park Experience?

Some dogs may not be ready to visit a dog park. Following are characteristics of dogs who should not visit—at least not yet. · Puppies younger than four months old who have not had all of their vaccinations should never be around dogs you don’t know. · Dogs that aren’t up-to-date on their vaccinations should stay home. AKC Chief Veterinary Officer Dr. Jerry Klein recommends that dogs spending time in dog parks be vaccinated for bordetella, leptospirosis and canine influenza.

They should also be treated with flea, tick and heartworm prevention. · If your dog is in heat or coming into season, keep her at home—unless you want

unplanned puppies or to stir up an aggressive interest in male dogs. · Any dog showing signs of illness should stay home. It may be something contagious and also cause the dog to feel unsociable. · A dog should learn to obey basic obedience commands—such as come, down and stay—in distracting environments prior to going to a dog park. If your dog is tuning you out when he’s having fun, you won’t get his attention at the dog park. · Socialize your dog to other dogs before you go. If your dog is shy or nervous, the dog park may be a nightmare for him. · Reactive or aggressive dogs may not welcome an onrush of strange dogs anywhere, including a dog park. · Resource guarders, depending on what they guard, may not do well in a dog park. Dogs that guard their owners, their water dish or even a ball or stick may not interact well with other dogs.

Is a Particular Dog Park a Match for Your Dog?

All dog parks are not alike.

Therefore, animal behaviorists suggest that you visit a dog park

without your dog before you take your canine companion along. Here are some of the aspects to evaluate: · Fencing should be secure and prevent dogs from jumping over or crawling under, with no holes or rough edges. Double gates are safest, allowing you to close one gate behind you before opening the gate to the park area. · Separate play areas for large and small dogs are most conducive to safe and congenial mingling. · The park should be clear of trash, equipment and dog poop. You should clean up after your dog and so should everyone else. · How many dogs are there? Large groups of too many dogs can be intimidating and difficult to control. Consider visiting dog parks at off-peak hours and leaving if the park is too crowded. · Communal water bowls allow dogs to share parasites, bacteria and viruses. Dog parks that ask owners to bring their own water dishes help protect your dog’s health. · Dog parks that require owners to register their dogs and show proof of vaccinations also offer better health protection. · Notice what the dog owners are doing. They should be paying attention to their dogs, watching their dog’s body language and intervening when play starts to get too rough. · Personal dog toys, balls, food or treats can cause doggy disagreements and are best left at home.

og parks are fenced-in, outdoor grounds designated for off-leash dog play. There are many variations, some safer and more pleasurable than others for your dog. Also, like any other social activity, it’s important for dog owners to know basic rules of etiquette. In this case, it’s not just a matter of a social faux pas— failing to comply can put your dog and other pets at risk.

The Trust for Public Land reports that dog parks are among the fastest-growing park amenities in the 100 largest U.S. cities. In 2019, there were 810 dedicated dog parks in those cities.

Dog parks range from a canine oasis where dogs can socialize and expend positive energy to frightening

enclosures contributing to traumatic experiences for your dog. Thankfully, there are steps you can take to determine whether your dog and a dog park are a good match.

Local Law 2-2021, as proposed is a Local Law prohibiting smoking and/or tobacco use upon property owned and/or controlled by The Incorporated Village of Munsey Park.

Local Law 2-2021, as proposed is a Local Law A local law designating certain streets within the Village as “Protected Streets” and governing the requirements for excavations to be performed thereof.

BY ORDER OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES Tara Gibbons Village Clerk/Treasurer Dated: June 21, 2021 6-30-2021-1T-#225476-MAN LEGAL NOTICE PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that the Board of Trustees of the Village of Plandome Heights at a regular meeting held on June 7, 2021, duly adopted Local Law 1 of 2021, which amends zoning code provisions, as follows: Section 1. Legislative Intent.

For the reasons set forth in the text of revised Clause “A.” of Section 140-13 of the Code of the Village of Plandome Heights, as contained herein, the Board of Trustees has determined that the best interests of the Village and its residents are served by transferring the powers of the separate Planning Board of the Village to the Village Board of Trustees pursuant to NYS Municipal Home Rule Law § 10, and abolishing the separate Planning Board pursuant to NYS Village Law §3-310.

Section 2. Pursuant to NYS Municipal Home Rule Law § 10 and NYS Village Law §3-310, the Board of Trustees hereby amends Clauses “A” and “B.” of Section 14013 of the Code of the Village of Plandome Heights so that clauses “A” and “B.” shall read in their entirety as follows: A. “B. Legislative History.

The Board of Trustees of the Village of Plandome Heights recognizes that the Village consists almost entirely of building lots that are not able to be further partitioned or sub-divided as of right in

ANTON MEDIA GROUP • JUNE 30 - JULY 6, 2021

LEGAL NOTICES

light of the Village’s zoning restrictions on lot dimensions.

Furthermore, the Village has only very infrequently been presented with partitioning or subdivision applications for property in neighboring jurisdictions for which the Village has shared jurisdiction. As a result the Village is presented with applications for subdivision or partitioning on extremely rare occasions, such that many years may intervene between meetings of the Village Planning Board.

Due to such infrequency of meetings and minimal need for the Planning Board function, the duly appointed members of the separate Planning Board heretofore established

by Local Law No. 1 of 2004 of the Village do not have the opportunity to become familiar with current property and zoning issues within the Village or in neighboring jurisdictions, but are burdened by the obligation to satisfy annual training requirements which are rarely put to use.

At the same time, the members of the Board of Trustees collectively meet regularly to address the many issues that arise in the Village, including those that pertain to property and zoning issues.

The Trustees receive briefings and presentations relating to property, zoning and land use matters from time to time from the Village Attorney and the Village Building Inspector. In addition, through the Village’s membership in the New York Conference of Mayors and the Nassau County Village Officials Association, the Trustees have access to property, zoning and land use materials and information from those organizations.

Furthermore, in a small Village like Plandome Heights, there is an inherent difficulty in identifying and securing residents who are ready, willing and able to serve the Village in a voluntary, uncompensated role such as that of member of a separate Planning Board, and the interests of the Village are not served if such individuals do come forward and volunteer, only to serve on a Board that meets as infrequently as the Village’s separate Planning Board.

B. Transfer of Powers and Duties of Planning Board to Board of Trustees. Effective upon the enactment of this provision, the separate Planning Board of the Village of Plandome Heights heretofore created by Local Law No. 1 of 2004 of the Village is hereby abolished pursuant to New York State Village Law § 3-310, and all powers and duties heretofore held by duly appointed and acting members of the separate Planning Board hereby abolished are transferred to the Board of Trustees of the Village, which shall have all powers of a village planning board pursuant to the provisions of the Code of the Village of Plandome

Heights and the laws of the State of New York, including, without limitation, the powers of a planning board set forth under § 7-718 of the Village Law of the State of New York.”

Section 3. Effective date.

This local law shall take effect immediately.

LEGAL NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that the Board of Trustees of the Village of Plandome Heights will hold a public hearing at 6:00 P.M. on Monday, July 12, 2021, in person, at the Village Hall, 37 Orchard Street, Manhasset, New York 11030, with respect to the following matter: Bill No. 2 of 2021, a proposed local law pursuant to Cannabis Law § 131 opting out of licensing and establishing retail cannabis dispensaries and/ or on-site cannabis consumption establishments within the Village of Plandome Heights.

Section 1. Legislative Intent.

It is the intent of this local law that the Village of Plandome Heights opt out of hosting retail cannabis dispensaries and/ or on-site cannabis consumption establishments within its boundaries.

Section 2. Authority. This local law is adopted pursuant to Cannabis Law § 131, which expressly authorizes a village to opt out of allowing retail cannabis dispensaries and/or on-site cannabis consumption establishments to locate and operate within its boundaries.

Section 3. Local Cannabis Retail Dispensary and/or OnSite Consumption Opt-Out. The Board of Trustees of the Village of Plandome Heights, County of Nassau, hereby opts out of licensing and establishing cannabis retail dispensaries and/or cannabis on-site consumption establishments within its boundaries.

Section 4. Severability. If a court determines that any clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivision, or part of this local law or the application thereof to any person, firm or corporation, or circumstance is invalid or unconstitutional, the court’s order or judgment shall not affect, impair, or invalidate the remainder of this local law, but shall be confined in its operation to the clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivision, or part of this local law or in its application to the person, individual, firm or corporation or circumstance, directly involved in the controversy in which such judgment or order shall be rendered.

Section 5. This local law shall take effect immediately

upon filing with the Secretary of State. Pursuant to Cannabis Law § 131, this local law is subject to a permissive referendum and thus may not be filed with the Secretary of State until the applicable time period has elapsed to file a petition or a referendum has been conducted approving this local law.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). There’s someone who pouts when you don’t pay attention. You can take it as a compliment. Your attention is a comfort and an energizer. Should it also be a privilege though? There are those you feel should work for it and others who have it unconditionally. You’ll work out boundaries and rules on the matter.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You make moments for people. Like a playwright ratcheting up the drama, or the creator of a theme park experience, you think about how to construct an emotional progression and lead someone through it. Often people do this on a subconscious level, but you do it purposefully, consciously and brilliantly this week.

A string quartet Solution: 21 Letters

© 2021 Australian Word Games Dist. by Creators Syndicate Inc.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Keep observing those who do what you want to be doing. If you’re not in love with anyone’s work yet, you need more influences. It is good to have one or two models, but having 12 is better and having 20 is better still. This is a phase of absorption -- of becoming great by steeping in greatness.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll feel and respond to the texture of the present moment, even the parts you’re not actively engaging with. This week, some of life will seem to be behind velvet curtains; you don’t have to touch to know how it would feel to. Relax, access the experience at a respectful distance for now and enjoy the show.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). An expensive five-minute carnival ride can be a rush, but wouldn’t you rather have a whole day at the fair? Pace your delights. This week, you’ll learn about yourself as you pay slow and deliberate attention to your sensory experience of something you would usually be inclined to get through quickly.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The same action done with a different intention will have different results. Intention can be the difference between a compliment and an insult, success and dumb luck, a crime and an accident.

Nuances matter, i.e., what’s done from love has one outcome; what’s done from duty has another.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’re not new at this. You’ve traveled this life enough to know the benefits of having a destination in mind and the dangers of being so fixated on it that you lose the richness of the journey.

This week, you hit the perfect relaxed stride. Progress is assured and the detours will be both necessary and lovely.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). There was a time you were compelled to share, and now the higher value you place on your own mystery inspires you toward different social strategies. Not everyone needs to know what you’re thinking and doing. You’ll navigate your privacy ideals and decide how much of your inner world to reveal as well.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). What you really desire is a stronger and wider capacity to become aware of what’s going on as it is going on. A high level of awareness is a prerequisite to finding and acting on the opportunities of the moment. Also, a greater capacity for absorbing and integrating the moment makes for an enviable smoothness.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Most people don’t like being wrong. Some will go to great lengths not to admit it’s happened. But being wrong doesn’t look so terrible on the lighthearted. In fact, well-intentioned mistakes are much more loveable than self-seriousness. At the very least, they indicate a person’s willingness to stretch and risk.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

Your cosmic boon comes in the form of a request made of you, the fulfillment of which will prove your mettle. Staying ahead of trends will be an important part of your success strategy. You’ll discover new methods and ideologies and because you incorporate them well and early, you’ll be a sought-after teacher. You’ll adventure with someone who enjoys what you enjoy. Breaks and deals will make it easier for you to have and enjoy what you’ve worked for.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There’s something you dream of doing that you haven’t accomplished yet. It’s been a fuzzy wish and now, suddenly, you can see it better, as though the scene came into focus with the right lens setting on a camera. Tell people your hopes, and your allies will be many.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s an age-old struggle in the art of living. Two sides of you, the director and the actor, are in conflict. The director has a vision; the actor doesn’t share it. The actor throws tantrums, playing it wild, flowing unapproved emotions through the performance. Both sides have merit. Gentleness and patience bring harmony.
