Pedestrian Struck And Killed In Mineola

New Hyde Park Student Selected For National Youth Science Camp New Hyde Park Memorial High School student Anitta Kottai was selected to represent New York State at the 2022 National Youth Science Camp to be held this summer, from June 27-July 20.

Annually, the NYSC invites 102 delegates (two from each state and the District of Columbia) to participate in a three-week forum where they can exchange ideas with leading scientists and other professionals from the academic and corporate worlds.

The New York State Education Department selected Kottai to attend due to her demonstration of academic proficiency, leadership in school and community activities, and a passion and curiosity for STEM fields.

Dairy Education Comes To Floral Park-Bellerose John Lewis Childs School fourth grade classes participated in a six-week dairy education pilot program with the Cornell Cooperative Extension of Nassau County, in collaboration with the Cornell University New York Agriculture in the Classroom Program. The program is running from April 27-June 1.

The program was developed using resources from Cornell University, various milk commodity groups and the experiences of agricultural educators nationwide. The goal of the program is to help students understand and communicate the source and value of New York State dairy products and their related industries.

The students received weekly virtual lessons from Nicole Nash, a 4-H agriculture program educator from CCE – Nassau.

The lessons focused on New York’s dairy industry, how the industry uses environmentally-smart farming solutions, the various species of ruminants that produce milk, dairy technology, nutrition and careers that support the industry. Along with the lessons, students participated in activities such as cheese tasting, tasting different kinds of milk, making butter, creating parfaits and planting using CowPots (created from composted cow manure).

Alden Terrace third graders celebrate National Poetry Month Alden Terrace School third graders have been learning how to become poets by writing their own poems in honor of National Poetry Month.

Students were introduced to a variety of poetic forms before creating their very own interactive poetry books. To immerse students in poetry, teachers Mrs. Spitaletta, Mrs. Valentino and Ms. Neuman taught them about the five poetic elements: rhythm, rhyme, repetition, imagery and shape. Then, the students wrote haiku, concrete, emotion and rhyming poems. The students were excited to create their own poetry anthologies to share with each other and their families.

Students also created original, individual Poetic iMovies. They recorded their expressive voices and inserted images and captivating pictures to capture the essence of their poetry. Then, the classes took part in a “Poetry Movie” experience that included all of their poetry work flowing one after the other.

“It was so inspirational and uplifting to see and hear,” Principal Shawnée Warfield said.

Assistant Principal Shona Beldo added, “Third grade scholars spent the month celebrating the joy, expressiveness and the pure delight of poetry!”

Bake Sale Aids Ukrainian Cause Westbury High School’s honor societies recently held a bake sale for Ukraine as a part of their annual humanitarian efforts.

All money raised was sent to the World Central Kitchen, a non-profit founded by Chef José Torres, to support that organization’s #ChefsforUkraine initiative. The #ChefsforUkraine project delivers nearly 300,000 fresh and hot meals daily to families across the Ukraine-Poland border.

Garden City Advisory Board Meeting on Wednesday June 8th Garden City’s Environmental Advisory Board (“EAB”) invites all residents to attend an information session on Garden City’s drinking water Wednesday evening, June 8, at 7:30 p.m. at Village Hall.

Residents should have received the Village of Garden City’s 2021 Drinking Water Quality Report, and this information session is an opportunity for residents to hear an overview of that report and have their questions answered by our Village Administrator and the Village’s water consultants from H2M. Overview of the 2021 Drinking Water Quality Report Village Administrator Ralph Suozzi and consultants from H2M will provide residents an overview of the 2021 Drinking Water Quality Report that was mailed to all homes, and answer any questions residents have regarding the content of the report.

2022 Updates from the Village’s Water Department While the Drinking Water Report covers 2021, residents will be provided with an update on the first five months of 2022, and what future work is planned.

Lead in Drinking Water Reminder and Status of Service Line Inventory Residents will be provided with important information and resources on Lead in Drinking Water, and our consultants

BREAKING DOWN BOUNDARIES WITH CANCER BREAKTHROUGHS

from H2M will provide an update on the Village’s Lead Service Line Inventory.

Waiver of permit fees for service line replacement will be discussed, and residents who have already replaced their lead service lines will have an opportunity to share their experiences.

Importance of Water Conservation At our February 16, 2022 meeting, the EAB’s guest speaker, Sarah Meyland, highlighted the importance of water conservation when she reported on the state of our aquifer. Information will be provided to residents on simple steps they can take to conserve water, and the EAB will be kicking off a water conservation campaign which we hope will result in a significant reduction in the amount of water our Village will withdraw from the aquifer during 2022. Taking these steps is not only beneficial to the environment - it will also save residents money.

Bring your water report, your water bills from the last year, and your questions on Wednesday evening! The session will be held in the Board Room of Village Hall beginning at 7:30 pm on Wednesday, June 8. If you would like to attend by Zoom, please email our Village Clerk at kaltman@gardencityny.net before 3:00 p.m. on June 8.

Kerouac At 100: The Road Goes On… And On

with a lifetime promise to take care of his elderly mother. His life in turmoil, Kerouac sought to justify his bleak existence with a sprawling, Wolfe-like novel, The Town and The City, published in 1950. He had not jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com found his voice, but it was a start. t’s 2022 and “the twos” have it. First, the Enter Neal Cassady.

Maggie is bitterly upset. The reader knows Duluoz has just given up the best thing he will ever find.

Kerouac had range: Novels, poetry, journals, letters, even a Book of Dreams. He had influence. Did The Beatles come from The Beats? Bob Dylan and other rock stars sang his praises, giving the man exposure to younger generations.

Kerouac left behind a lifetime of great reading. It could have been more. Why couldn’t he follow Ginsberg and John Clellon Holmes into the university profession? Kerouac would have made a fine writer-in-residence. For years, the man had wanted to write a history of the Civil War. His wasteful ways prevented that. Shelby Foote was also a novelist. Consider his three-volume classic. Kerouac could have lent his prodigious talents to the American Iliad.

One final influence was John Updike.

When On The Road came out, the young Updike penned a satire of the novel in The New Yorker. His second novel, Rabbit Run, was a rebuttal to On The Road. Updike’s protagonist, Harry “Rabbit” Angstrom, runs, Dean Moriarty-like, from a wife and young child. While Rabbit is an absent father, his young daughter dies in a bathtub accident. See where an irresponsible lifestyle gets you?

In fairness, On The Road ends with resolutions. Dean finds happiness with his new bride and heads back to the West Coast.

Sal Paradise, the Kerouac-stand in, is set to live the life of a Manhattan literati. For both men, the middle-class beckons.

In his novels, Updike fed off Kerouac’s energetic prose. With Rabbit, he created the quintessential postwar American hero. He might have done so without On The Road, but the influence sure didn’t hurt.

BLI, a Long Island-based recreational volleyball organization for teenagers and adults, is elated to announce the first annual Grass Volleyball Pride Festival, a.k.a “PrideFest,” will take place on June 11 at Eisenhower Park in East Meadow.

Originally scheduled to take place in June 2020, PrideFest had been twice-delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Volleyball enthusiasts, the LGBTQ+ community and its allies are invited to compete in the all-day charity tournament featuring Men’s, Women’s and CoEd Doubles, plus Gender Neutral Quads, offered in a variety of skill levels. The $50 from each doubles team and $100 from each quads team’s registration fees will be donated to PFY (formerly Pride For Youth), a division of the Long Island Crisis Center whose mission is to enhance the health and wellness of the LGBTQ community through education, supportive services and personal development in Nassau, Suffolk and Queens counties.

“PrideFest has been a long-time coming and reflects the volleyball community’s

altruism and diversity, especially in regards to sexuality and gender,” VBLI’s Founder and Managing Director Glenn Yankow said. “Collaborating with PFY has been a pleasure and we’re as inspired as ever to create a fun, memorable tournament, one to keep improving upon for years to come.”

On-site vendors will be announced at a later date, will enhance the patron experience and donate additional proceeds. The goal is to host more than 200 volleyball players from Long Island and the surrounding areas, raising more than $5,000 for PFY. “We’re deeply grateful to VBLI for including us in this unique event held during Pride Month,” PFY Director Devon Zappasodi said. “There is a lot of work to be done in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights and equality in the area of athletics, but PrideFest is a nice indication of the progress that has been made.”

Registration for PrideFest is open now; go to www.vbli.com for more information.

curriculum in regards to U.S. history, gender and sexual orientation.

But now those same people are going to trust those teachers with a gun around their children?

Scanning gun enthusiast websites, like the Firearm Industry Trade Association, it is said that AR-15s, the ArmaLite rifle, are used for hunting, target practice and shooting competitions. But the AR-15 style weapon has been used in the shooting at Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida that killed 17, the Las Vegas shooting that killed 59, the Sutherland Springs church shooting that killed 26, the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando that killed 49, the San Bernardino shooting in California that killed 14 and, the one that brings tears to my eyes when I think of it just like the most recent shooting, the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Connecticut that killed 26, including 20 children between the ages of 6 and 7-years-old. These numbers don’t even count the injured and the traumatized.

Now, I understand the importance of the Second Amendment. I support it, in fact. But, historically speaking, any time something has been responsible for multiple deaths, we look for ways to make sure tragedy doesn’t strike again. When it comes to the First Amendment, free speech

and religion, threats do not fall under that category. We don’t consider Jim Jones’ Peoples Temple or Heaven’s Gate something that should be accepted because of freedom of religion.

In 2016, Peter Rhee, a trauma surgeon at the University of Arizona, told Wired when comparing the damage an AR-15 can do compared to a 9mm handgun to the human body, that “One looks like a grenade went off in there. The other looks like a bad knife cut.”

In what world do we allow 18-year-olds to buy two AR-15s and 375 rounds without even a background check or training when we require them to take a test to receive a permit, attend driving school and then take a road test for a driver’s license? To get a U.S. passport, it takes months between the application, the fee, the visit to the post office and the month or two it takes for the passport to be processed. Are we really okay with more regulations in order to leave the country than owning a deadly weapon that’s been proven the weapon of choice in mass causality events? Is that where we are?

Is this the reality we’re going to accept?

We all know that it’s time for gun responsibility in this country. Let’s do something about it.

pump, through the hose, into my car. I thought, “What if I let my angers flow through the nozzle into the tank?” Of course in some ways that was stupid. Filling my tank with anger wasn’t really doing anything to make a difference in the world.

But on the other hand, it started to make a difference internally.

Anger is a secondary emotion.

A primary emotion is what is felt immediately before we feel angry.

We always feel something else first before we get angry. We might

first feel afraid, attacked, offended, disrespected, forced, trapped or pressured. If any of these feelings are intense enough, we think of the emotion as anger. So my recognition that I felt insignificant in the face of the world’s violence gave me a clue as to why the anger was building within me.

Anger always seeks some form of release. Sometimes it leads to actual physical violence. Sometimes to verbal violence. Sometimes, if it is not released, it bottles up, causing internal destruction in our bodies.

Sometimes, bottled up anger leads to depression, which is often the flip side of anger. Healthy release of anger can include physical exercise, artistic expression, appropriately expressing our feelings with others, and—as I discovered—pumping gas.

As odd is it sounds, as I experienced the anger flowing out of me into the gas tank, I felt some release.

What I was really doing was letting my imagination deal with the anger in a new creative way. You might think that with a tank full of anger

The Anger Pump Recently I discovered a cheap form of anger therapy while paying a high price for one of suburbia’s necessities. I was at the gas station filling my tank with expensive gasoline and resenting the daily increase in gas prices. My anger wasn’t merely about the cost of fuel, but it was connected to my distress at the war against Ukraine that not simply contributed to the current price situation, but that ruined so many lives of so many families. This was needless violence that also reached into my wallet.

Then came more anger—not connected at all to gas prices—when shoppers upstate were murdered by a racist gunman. Then we heard of the murder of children and their teachers in Texas. I felt so helpless and insignificant because there was nothing I could do to stop the runaway violence that is plaguing our world. I was angry about my lack of ability to fix this.

As I was pumping away at the gas station, I looked at the gas nozzle in my hand. I had pulled its trigger and could feel the flow from the

my driving would turn aggressive.

But it didn’t. Somehow I felt an energy that propelled me toward my destination. I felt freer.

Being freed from disturbing emotions can certainly help us in the areas of life where we have control.

Instead of taking my anger out on the beloved readers of this column by ranting and raving over what I don’t like, instead of letting the anger poison my preaching, instead of becoming cantankerous with people in my life, I could be free to look for ways to be life-supporting.

I could consider how I’m meant to be a healer of life’s wounds and look for the opportunities to walk with folks who are suffering from their own angers, frustrations and lack of power in difficult situations.

I don’t know how long this metaphor will serve me. But while it does, I hope to increase the number of miles I get by letting the anger flow out. Your miles may vary.

COVER STORY

Tip Sheet: Good Health In Later Life For Older Men

A

mericans are living longer than ever, but American men still aren’t living as long as American women. The average life expectancy for men in the U.S. is now roughly 75 years. For women, it’s more than 80.

Exactly why men are shorter-lived than women isn’t entirely clear. Even in infancy boys run a higher risk of dying than girls, and researchers aren’t sure why.

However, research suggests that a leading reason for the “longevity gap” between men and women is that men don’t take care of themselves as well as women do. For example, surveys have found that women are much more likely to have a regular healthcare provider, and to see their provider within the course of the year, than men are. Men are also more likely to engage in “risky” behaviors—like smoking and drinking heavily—than women.

Experts agree that by taking better care of themselves, men can increase their odds of living healthier, longer lives.

Tips for Older Men

1

See your healthcare provider regularly. Even if you feel perfectly healthy, you should see your provider at least once a year for a checkup.

Call or see your healthcare provider when you’re feeling sick. Surveys find that men are less likely than women to see a healthcare provider when they’re not feeling well. In one survey, 40 percent of men said that, if they were sick, they would delay seeking medical care for a few days. Seventeen percent said they would wait “at least a week.”

Prompt medical care can make a big difference—sometimes, the difference between life and death.

Don’t wait.

Take medications, vitamins, and supplements only as directed. When you visit your provider, bring either all of the pills you take, or a complete list of these that notes the doses you take, and how often you take them. Include medicines, vitamins, herbs and supplements (even those you buy in the store without a prescription). Why? Because the longer you live, and the more medicines you take, the more likely you are to experience some side effects, even from medicines bought over-thecounter at the pharmacy. Your provider should check all of your pills to make sure they’re safe for you to take, and that they don’t interact in harmful ways. Always check with your provider, or your pharmacist, before taking any new medicines of any kind. Take all medicines as directed, and tell your provider right away if a medication or other pill seems to be causing any problems or side effects.

Get your shots! Check with your healthcare provider to make sure you’re getting: • A flu shot—every year in September or October before the flu season starts.

• The shingles (herpes zoster) vaccine—once when 60 or older.

• A combination tetanus/diphtheria booster shot—every 10 years.

• Pneumonia vaccination—once after age 65 (your healthcare provider may suggest that

Spend time with others.

Spending time and doing things with other people, of all ages, can help keep you mentally, physically and emotionally fit.

It can also give your brain a boost and lift your mood. So volunteer, or join community or other groups and get involved in activities you enjoy.

Get checked out!

Screening, or checking, for early signs of certain health problems can help diagnose them early. The following screening approaches are generally recommended for older men; ask your healthcare provider if they’re right for you.

Bone health evaluation: Periodically. Your healthcare provider should evaluate your risk of osteoporosis, or “thinning of the bones.” (It’s not just a woman’s disease.) Your healthcare provider should evaluate your risk and possibly recommend further testing. Remember: exercise strengthens the bones at any age.

Blood pressure check: At least once a year.

Cholesterol test for high blood cholesterol levels: Cholesterol screening should be done after consulting with your healthcare provider. Screening frequency depends on your age and general health.

Diabetes check: At least once; if you have high blood pressure or high blood cholesterol levels, or

Diagnosis Is Key To Cure

epatitis C is a virus that affects the liver and can cause chronic liver disease and cirrhosis. It is usually without symptoms and is only diagnosed when a specific hepatitis C test is ordered.

Once diagnosed, hepatitis C can be cured with simple, easy to take medications.

Hepatitis C affects about one percent of the population of the United States. Despite the ease of diagnosis and treatment, many people affected by this virus remain untreated and at risk for the development of cirrhosis and liver cancer. Diagnosis is key to disease cure and elimination.

The main risk factors for hepatitis C include intravenous drug use, intranasal cocaine use, blood and blood product transfusions prior to 1992, unregulated tattooing and health care related needle stick injuries. The past decade has seen a significant rise in new cases of hepatitis C in young people due to the opioid use epidemic. Sexual transmission of hepatitis C is uncommon but can occur in men who have sex with men.

In years past, screening for hepatitis C was recommended for any person with hepatitis C risk factors. This approach was highly unsuccessful in uncovering a significant number of people with hepatitis C. Because of this, the screening recommendations were changed to add screening for all people born between

THE SPECIALIST David Bernstein, MD

1945 to 1965 as well continuing to screen people with risk factors. This approach identified some patients but for the most part, these recommendations were not followed and this approach was also unsuccessful in identifying large numbers of infected people. This led to the current recommendation that all people over the age 18 and anyone, regardless of age, with risk factors be evaluated for hepatitis C. Unfortunately, these recommendations are not widely followed and most people with hepatitis C remain undiagnosed.

The hepatitis C epidemic can only be eliminated if these screening recommendations are followed. This requires health care provider awareness and education regarding the importance of hepatitis C and patient awareness and involvement to ask providers for the hepatitis C blood test.

The second component of solving the hepatitis C crisis is linking newly diagnosed patients to a provider that will provide the curative treatments. Hepatitis C treatment cures 98 to 99 percent of infected people, regardless of disease stage. These therapies can be given to both children and adults. Treatment consists of pills that are given either once a day for twelve weeks or three times a day for either eight or 12 weeks, depending on the genotype or subtype of the virus. These therapies are well tolerated with minimal to no side effects. They are affordable and covered by all insurances in New York State. They can be provided by a primary care provider, gastroenterologist, or

infectious disease specialist. Cure of hepatitis C is defined as having no detectable virus in the blood at a minimum of twelve weeks after completing the treatment regimen.

With the rise in hepatitis C cases being seen amongst our youth and young adults, it is imperative that patients be aware of this condition and ask to be tested and that health care providers test all patients at least once for this condition and then link patients with hepatitis C to providers who will provide treatment. Only if these two conditions are met will we be able to eliminate hepatitis C from our population.

It was only befitting with his dedication, “fire in the belly,” unending dedication and tireless efforts on behalf of this charitable foundation that the co-founders changed the name to The SASS-ARENA Foundation for Medical Research, Inc. to include their partner, friend and most respected medical oncologist, Arena.

“We could not have done it without him,” said the Sasses.

After a two-year hiatus, no thanks to COVID, The SASS-ARENA Foundation returned to the glorious venue of Guastavinos in Manhattan with their sold-out gala.

They are back with a vengeance, a passion and a commitment that they will never forget all those that are fighting for their lives against the biggest bully of all—cancer.

The gala had the distinct privilege of having a group of honorees that epitomize all that is good and courageous in their specific fields and in the world.

Stacy Fischer-Rosenthal received this year’s Courage Award. Not only is she a brilliant businesswoman but a true

role model on how a person could turn a personal tragedy into a passion and a commitment that could impact the lives of so many people. She has been an award recipient at the American Cancer Society’s Taste of Hope Gala and the Breast Cancer & Survivorship Award in the 21st Century honor. She is an advocate for all those men and women who fear the evil spell of breast cancer and what it can do against them and their family.

Dr. Robert Grossman, dean of the NYU Grossman Medical College was the medical honoree. His vision along with Ken Langone, has transformed the NYU Grossman Medical College into a fully scholarship school. This award was named after a member of the foundation’s board, Dr. Franco Muggia, a giant in the field of oncology and one of the founding fathers of the specialty.

Last but not least, the humanitarian honor went to two men who have spent the past 20 years making a huge difference.

John Feal, first responder and president of Feel Good Foundation suffered the blows and trauma of 9/11. He has endured 35 surgeries to correct what he suffered on that tragic day. He, along with Jon Stewart, fought tirelessly to protect anyone that

Martin Sass, Chairman & co-founder; Barbara R. Sass, co-founder; and Dr. Francis P. Arena, President and co-founder. Source sassfoundation.org came in contact with the horror of 9/11.

Feal introduced the foundation to Michael Barasch. Barasch is an attorney who has spent these last decades fighting tirelessly for all those that lost loved ones, or became afflicted by illnesses associated with this disaster. Barasch helped to register many dozens of cancers and illnesses that exposure to the toxins released by the fall of

the Twin Towers had caused.

The SASS-ARENA Foundation for Medical Research commitment runs true despite COVID, war, politics or anything that may try to take attention away from their motto “together we will make a difference.”

Instead of being isolated to a few of Schultz and countries, this is the whole world now. It’s Jeremiah Fraites a very strange, relatable thing. Part of the have been the goal of the record, at least subconsciously, constants in The is to try to write an album that describes the Lumineers (cellist/ pain without getting so caught in the weeds vocalist Neyla Pekarek was in the band in using the words quarantine or pandemfrom 2010-18) carving out a niche for itself ic.

pop music.

“Even though I didn’t think that song was going to resonate the way it does. I just thought it was interesting to my ear,” he recalled. “It had to come from some place other than trying to please someone. I’ve been to BMI Awards where people collect awards for these songs and half the time, you never heard of the song and there are 12 or 15 writers that go up and collect trophies because I guess they generated money. Half the time, those guys don’t even like what they wrote. They just know that it’s catchy. Isn’t it better to just write stuff that you care about? So for me, there’s this element of people asking about the 10th anniversary of our first record and how that feels and what does that mean? And most of it is that we got to make stuff the way we liked it on our own terms.

One of the things that I learned the more that I make music is to get out of your own way and to hold on to some level of your own innocence.

You’re not just creating new instruments and making up new chords. You’re finding yourself not quite sure of what you’re doing. It’s funny to even evaluate things when they come out because in a lot of ways, my favorite record is something it took me a while [to come around to]. All of a sudden, it’s on heavy rotation the rest of my life. The transcendence of all this is a really funny thing. It’s like a mystical thing. That word alchemy comes to mind.”

That straightforward simplicity comes across in spades on Brightside, whether it’s the opening title track that uses a cadence reminiscent of Tom Petty’s “Don’t Come

Around Here No More” while Schultz implores that, “I’ll be your brightside, baby, tonight” or providing reassurances during uncertain times amid bare bones piano accompaniment and just a hint of strings amid the optimistic vibe of “Where We Are.” Both songs have provided a degree of comfort to the band’s fan base, who have shared their feelings on social media.

“Ironically, a lot of parents, whether its people I don’t know that are posting it or parents that I know personally—so many have sent me images of their kids singing ‘Where We Are’ or ‘Brightside,’” Schultz shared. “But particularly ‘Where We Are’ and they’re singing, ‘Where we are/I don’t know where we are’ and it’s these little kids, most of whom don’t even know words yet and they’re mouthing these words. That for me is very exciting to see. It’s like tapping into some kind of universal power.”

Suffice it to say that the creative restlessness that defined so much of how Brightside came out will be a driving force of what the Lumineers will bring to the stage on this upcoming tour.

“We have four albums out and we have to cut songs now and that’s a good feeling,” Schultz said. “We can actually put on a show that has no fat. As a band, we’re most excited to play. Not pulling a rabbit out of our hat, but having, from start to finish, moments [where fans] won’t want to leave, grab a beer or take a leak. You want to just be there. I got to see Tom Petty during his Wildflowers Tour and I forgot how many songs he wrote. I would never compare us to him, but in that feeling, I want people to leave hopefully saying, ‘I forgot how many songs they wrote,’ even just four albums in.”

Heat Awareness

PSEG Long Island is prepared to meet the increased electrical demand that high temperatures bring, reminding customers to properly protect themselvers during the high heat days of summer.

During extreme heat conditions, customers should: • Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water.

Avoid drinks with caffeine or alcohol.

• Avoid wearing dark colors. Dark colors absorb the sun’s rays.

• Never leave children or pets alone in enclosed vehicles.

• Avoid overexertion during work or exercise, especially between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m.

Customers on qualifying life-support equipment can register for the PSEG Long Island Critical Care Program to receive enhanced notifications from the company. During severe weather, registered customers will receive additional outreach from PSEG Long Island. Customers who rely on such equipment are responsible for planning ahead to meet medical needs in the event of a power outage. If power is lost, every effort will be made to restore it as soon as possible. Participation in the Critical Care Program does not guarantee priority power restoration. To register, call 1-800-490-0025.

High temperatures can also lead to higher energy use, resulting in higher electric bills. To help save energy and money this summer, PSEG Long Island offers the following tips to customers: • Do not cool an empty house. Set your thermostat higher when you are away, or use a smart thermostat to control the temperature in your home.

• Seal holes and cracks around doors and windows with caulk or weather-stripping.

• Replace air filters monthly. Dirty filters make your air conditioner work harder.

• Operate appliances in the morning or evening when it is cooler outside.

• Set refrigerators and freezers to the most efficient temperatures.

• Replace old appliances with new, energy efficient ENERGY STAR appliances.

• Close blinds and draperies facing the sun to keep out the sun’s heat.

• Ceiling fans cool fast and cost less than air conditioning. (In hot weather, set your ceiling fan to spin quickly, counterclockwise to push air downward toward the floor.)

Extreme temperatures and high electric demand can sometimes cause scattered, heat-related outages. Customers can prepare by keeping PSEG Long Island’s contact information handy. During extreme heat, PSEG Long Island will have additional personnel available to address outages safely and as quickly as possible.

Stay connected: • Download the PSEG Long Island mobile app to report outages and receive information on restoration times, crew locations and more.

• Report an outage and receive status updates by texting OUT to PSEGLI (773454).

You can also report your outage through PSEG Long Island’s app, its website at www.psegliny.com/outages or with your voice using the Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant app on your smartphone.

‘Senior Prom’ To Unite Senior Cats (8+ Years) And Potential T

Senior citizen adopters at newly renovated cat sanctuary

he Patricia H. Ladew Foundation, Inc., a cat rescue, sanctuary and adoption organization, will showcase its innovative Seniors for Seniors program on Saturday, June 11 from noon to 5 p.m. in a clever “Senior Prom” themed event. Staff and volunteers of the Ladew Cat Sanctuary will be on hand to give guided tours of the newly renovated Victorian home in which the cats reside.

Thanks to a very generous donation to the Ladew Seniors for Seniors program from long-time supporter Jordan Salvit, co-founder of KitNipBox, the subscription box for cat toys and treats, the Ladew Foundation will announce at the event that it will be expanding the Seniors for Seniors program. Going forward: • The age for eligible cats will be reduced from 10 years old to eight.

• The foundation has partnered with a growing list of veterinarians in Nassau, Queens, Brooklyn, Westchester and New Jersey to allow senior adopters to see participating veterinarians closer to home.

To date the program has placed about 40 cats, 10 or more years old, with senior citizen adopters, with the benefit that the foundation will continue to pay all reasonable medical expenses for the cat at the shelter’s clinic in Oyster Bay. Additionally, senior cats may return to the sanctuary if circumstances change in the adopter’s life. This has enabled older community members to enjoy the benefits of pet ownership, which can include

redesigned Cat Sanctuary, planned and executed by Square Paws design team and Gerwald Construction, LLC. The major renovation was made possible by a bequest from a generous donor. The redesign of the cats’ living room, kitchen and recreation room features a whimsical retro theme in a nod to Patricia H. Ladew, the Long Island heiress who purchased the home for Oyster Bay’s stray cats back in 1975.

The main event will be outdoors under a tent; masks will be required for all individuals who go indoors.

The renovation has enhanced the home for the cats’ enjoyment and comfort while also creating a fun environment for people to come, meet up to 100 cats, and adopt. It includes cat-friendly furniture, fun and sustainable cat towers that are easy to clean with replaceable parts, eliminating the need to replace them over Cats like Simba are among the the months and years of use. residents up for adoption at the Ladew The Seniors for Seniors “Senior Prom” Cat Sanctuary’s will be on hand to give event will take place on the Patricia guided tours of the newly renovated H.

The foundation’s on-site veterinarian and staff maintain a homelike environment for the cats, and provide medical care and affection, making the cats adoption-ready once the intake process is complete. The foundation operates many innovative programs to raise funds and find adoptive homes for the cats in its care.

Programs include Sponsor a Cat for people who cannot adopt, the Have a Heart Fund to provide medical care for cats with cardiac problems, an Emergency Fund, the Sandra Atlas Bass New Hope Fund which directly supports rescue of cats on euthanasia lists and/or needing medical attention at municipal shelters, memorial gifts, special occasion cards and more.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’re a self-directed person, doing things for your own reasons. Some won’t be able to appreciate your efforts, only because they have never contributed thusly and cannot relate. Continue undaunted. Though you don’t need it, eventually you will be acknowledged by those who understand what you do.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The ones flashing wealth or flexing authority are often advertising how new it is to them and how much they need external things for validation. The power move is not to show off your energy but to hold it like the sun does, thus being the great magnet that others can orbit around and grow toward.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Resist the pressure to focus on one thing. Only you know when you’re ready to specialize; you’ll feel it. It is typical for creative minds like yours to try a wide array of endeavors. Fill your wells of inspiration with whatever interests you. Ultimately, your work will be enhanced by the breadth of your studies.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Compliments are much easier to give than constructive criticism. So you actually consider it more of a compliment when people are brave, honest and thoughtful enough to do the harder work of applying their critical mind to an assessment. You appreciate the value of critique and will apply it to great effect.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your development is a co-creation between the world and you. The world asks you to play a role, and you’ll apply your mind to building it uniquely. Imitation will be part of your process, but you’ll quickly outgrow the need to match yourself to an example. You’ll become your own example.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The “no guts, no glory” approach worked for you in the past, but these days you’re not after glory, so you take things in a different direction. “No guts, no fun” is the adage that keeps your week humming with excitement, risk, silliness and unforgettable moments of shared glee.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The obstacle between you and what you want is caused by misunderstanding, differences in ideology and generational clashes.

A breakthrough will require tolerance. The key is offering the benefit of the doubt, seeking understanding and deciding not to take offense.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

A playful energy lights up your relationships. It’s as though you and your loved ones have passes to a secret amusement park where you can go and have fun together no matter what else is happening in the world. You’ll sharpen your leadership skills as you take charge of a mission. You’ll enjoy this better when your tenure is short. Get in, make the change that will serve all and then hand the baton to the next person. Upgrades to the home environment will be health-enhancing.

You can’t see declarer’s cards when you’re a defender, but it is often possible to visualize them almost as if they were faceup on the table. The relevant inferences may be drawn from either the bidding or the play, but usually it is necessary to examine both of these areas.

Consider this case where East had to make a crucial decision at trick one. West led the ten of diamonds, on which declarer played dummy’s jack, and East had to decide

whether the diamond lead was a singleton or a doubleton.

If East decides that the ten is a singleton, he should take the jack with the ace and return a diamond for West to ruff. If East had done this in the actual deal, South would have made the contract easily, losing only a spade, a diamond and a club.

But East donned his thinking cap and decided that the lead was almost surely a doubleton. Accordingly, he signaled with the seven of diamonds instead of taking the ace.

When West later gained the lead with the king of trump, he returned a diamond to East’s ace and ruffed the diamond return to put the contract down one.

East knew from the bidding that declarer had four spades and four hearts. (North’s two-club bid was Stayman, asking South to bid a four-card major suit if he had one, and South had bid both.) It followed that South could not have four diamonds, since that would mean he had opened one notrump with a singleton club.

West’s lead therefore had to be a doubleton, and the best chance of stopping the contract was to proceed on the assumption that West could gain the lead before all the trumps were drawn and could then secure his diamond ruff.

Nassau Police Arrest Six For Selling ‘THC’ In One Week

Enforcement and confusion shape local cannabis ‘grey market’ JANET BURNS jburns@antonmediagroup.com

I

n late May, Nassau County Police arrested six people in one week for selling marijuana products in smoke shops, but questions remain about exactly what was being sold and how police and local media are choosing to inform the public.

On May 24, Nassau’s Major Case Bureau arrested five people linked to three different stores for allegedly selling tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), an intoxicating and in some cases therapeutic compound found in cannabis.

As numerous media outlets reported, the arrestees included Saleh Mohammed Salem, 25, of New Hyde Park and Shaafal Nasser Ali Ahmed, 41, of Brooklyn, as connected to Eastwind Exotic Vape Shop in Syosset; Matthew B. Flax, 45, and Toby P. FLax, 74, of Syosset, as connected to Vaporville in Hicksville; and Jennifer D. Babaian, 40, of Glen Head, as connected to 7 Leaf Clover in Westbury. Outlets such as Newsday accompanied Nassau police during the May 24 raids, and reported that, according to police, one or more of the shops had been marketing their THC products to children.

According to police, all of the arrestees were charged with 5th degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, a class D felony; Mohammed Salem and Nasser Ali Ahmed were each charged with two such counts, as well as 1st degree criminal possession of cannabis, a class C felony, punishable by up to 15 years in prison. In addition, all arrestees except for Matthew Flax were charged with 5th degree criminal sale of a controlled substance, another class D felony.

Four days later, Nassau police announced another arrest, of 22-year-old Rashid Ali of Brooklyn, for allegedly selling THC to two pre-teens, who news outlets reported had experienced nonfatal “overdose” after using products from the Great Neck shop where Ali works.

On their face, these six arrests may seem fairly straightforward. But there’s actually quite a lot to take in.

With legalization on the horizon, New York’s ‘grey market’ for cannabis has boomed, as has often happened in U.S. states that have moved to decriminalize cannabis in one way or another. Under the latest federal Farm Bill, hemp products have also been in greater supply across the country, leading to an explosion of non-intoxicating cannabidiol

what products are sold, how they’re being marketed, and who should be allowed to access them. But it also means that we need to be educating young people more effectively that they will be navigating a world in which some adults now have certain types of products.”

Vakharia pointed to recent ads by New York’s Office of Cannabis Management, part of the new regulatory body’s Cannabis Conversations campaign, which are currently reminding New Yorkers that legal cannabis will be for people aged 21+ only, that they shouldn’t drive while intoxicated on cannabis, and that cannabis products should be stored safely in the home. This moment will also require parents to talk to their kids directly about cannabis, but as part of a larger conversation many parents are already The exterior of 7 Leaf Clover in Westbury is shown in a 2019 photo. having, she said, such that “when kids open (User-uploaded image via Google Maps) the fridge and see a can of beer, they know that’s not for them. “ (CBD) products in various forms and levels candy, baked goods or other sweets. That’s The specifics of how a 12 year old and a 13 of quality. In a growing number of smoke probably partly due to the range of options year old allegedly obtained THC product(s) shops across New York State, consumers available for preparing a product that is at a Glen Head store aren’t publicly known, can now purchase not only non-intoxicating ‘activated’ through cooking for desired effect, nor are the non-fatal symptoms that they hemp cigarettes or flower (a.k.a. loose plant easily processed by the human body, and still experienced after use. Among other things, buds), which remain largely unregulated tasty. It likely also relates to the fact that, as a inexperienced users are especially likely to but perfectly legal under U.S. law, but also, nation, we adore our sugar. take too high of a dose of cannabis when in some cases, small quantities of cannabis As New York’s legal market moves ahead, using edibles, so it isn’t hard to imagine kids flower containing THC. adults’ love of cannabis candy is something doing the same.

Williston American Legion Auxiliary Unit 144’s Hero: New Hyde Park Diner

n Saturday, May 21, 2022, Armed Forces Day, New Hyde Park Diner (160 Hillside Ave.) was happy to participate, once again, in “Dining for a Cause.” All who came and dined that day between 12 noon and 5 p.m. were greeted at the door by several Williston American Legion Auxiliary Unit 144 members, (a member of Garden City Unit 265 also pitched in), who gave them a valuable coupon: the coupon, once submitted by the customers to their waiters, resulted in 20 percemt of their tab being donated to Camp Corral, a camp for the children of our wounded, ill, injured or fallen military heroes.

The parking lots were full all day long, and the diner staff gladly donned “Camp Corral” hats provided by the ladies, courtesy of Camp Corral. It was a great afternoon of good food, at a diner with a “big heart.” Kudos to Kenny Thoma, owner of the New Hyde Park Diner, for his outstanding generosity in participating in this event. The diner donated a total of $1000 that afternoon, all of which will go to Camp Corral for the children. It was also touching to see that monetary donations for Camp Corral were made to the Auxiliary ladies in the vestibule, as customers came to eat, which was totally unexpected.

We applaud New Hyde Park Diner for once again participating in “Dining for a Cause”

Kenny Thoma, owner of New Hyde Park Diner, received a certificate from members of Williston Unit 144, American Legion Auxiliary, following their joint “Dining for a Cause” event on May 21, 2022. (Photo credit: Eric Spinner) which provides a camping experience for like-minded children, the youngest among us who, by their sacrifice, are ALSO serving our country. Auxiliary members received several comments from happy customers stating ”New Hyde Park Diner is now my go-to diner for a great meal and great service.” Bravo to Kenny Thoma and the New Hyde Park Diner!

God bless America!

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

HISTORIC LOCAL ELECTIONS IN WESTBURY SCHOOL DISTRICT In the time span of a little over a month, residents in Westbury Union Free School District participated in two particularly important elections that were historic, albeit for different reasons. On April 12, community members went to the polls to vote on a budget for the public library and to select one candidate for trustee on the board. On May 17, the public approved the operating budget for the 2022 -23 school year and returned three incumbents who sought reelection as trustees to the board.

The library board elections are typically low key, uneventful, and public interest is often lacking; on the other hand, there is always a bevy of activities surrounding the school board elections in that the landscape is often dotted with lawn signs promoting

respective candidates, followed by door-to door in-person appeals from the candidates themselves. This was not the case this year; there were seven candidates contesting one available seat on the library board, and a very robust “meet the candidates” night attended by all seven contestants who fielded questions from the public.

Lawn signs, fliers and personal appeals from the school board candidates were virtually non-existent this year; there were no need to because all three candidates were unchallenged. It is an interesting and fascinating dichotomy because on the one hand it tends to dispel the notion that the public is apathetic with regards to local interests, and on the other it seems to confirm this belief. One could also construe

IM PRES SION ISM

that it signals a vote of confidence when incumbents go unchallenged even though there is a sparsity of public attendance at board meetings. It remains to be seen if this is signaling the beginning of the new normal in this community.

I certainly hope this will not be the case because it was rather refreshing and encouraging for me to observe that among the seven candidates for the library board, there were two young millennials, equally divided between the genders; one of whom was victorious. I congratulate Ms. Tyeisha Marshall, and encourage Mr. Bryce Mack to continue to make his presence known in this community. I also encourage our stalwart politicians to make room for our young people; mentor and encourage them

Degas Renoir Cézanne Cassatt Morisot

to become the stalwarts that you are so that we can ensure continuity of the public service that you have provided.

One thing I learned from the unusual publicity of the library board election is that trustees term on the board is for a period of five years instead of the average three-year term that is customary in most governing bodies.

I expressed my alarm to the board members at the meeting on May 19 and implored them to take steps to rescind this provision and move towards a three-year limit thereby encouraging greater participation in the process and making it easier for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) in our public affairs to be achieved.
