TOP STORY

Political Giant Falls, New Era Dawns Kathy Hochul to take office August 24 as first woman governor

BY FRANK RIZZO

Legacy

frizzo@antonmediagroup.com

“In my mind I’ve never crossed the line with anyone, but I didn’t realize the extent to which the line has been redrawn. There are generational and cultural shifts that I did not fully appreciate. And I should have known. No excuses.”

—Governor Andrew Cuomo

A

s an obscure ancient Greek philosopher is supposed to have said, “Character is destiny.”

Greek dramatists introduced the concept of “hubris,” a character flaw that will lead to a hero’s inevitable downfall. The Greek tragedy metaphor has been used by at least one politician to refer to Governor Cuomo’s reversal of fortune, though right now there’d be few who would call him a hero.

Cuomo seems by his own admission to have operated and acted in a Mad Men-type manner in an age of “Me Too.” On Aug. 10, he announced that he will step down on Aug. 24 and Lt. Governor Kathy Hochul will be sworn in as New York’s 57th governor. Cuomo has been in office since Jan. 1, 2011 and was expected to seek a fourth term to surpass his father Mario’s three.

Though he might escape the tabloid press moniker “Gropinator”—his former executive assistant Brittany Commisso accused him of groping her in the governor’s mansion—the governor has been exposed as a hypocrite after the devastating report on his sexual harassment allegations was released by Attorney General Letitia James on Aug. 3.

A press release from her office concluded that “Governor Cuomo did sexually harass multiple women— including former and current state employees—by engaging in unwanted groping, kissing, hugging and making inappropriate comments. Further, the governor and his senior staff took actions to retaliate against at least one former employee for coming forward with her story. Finally, the Executive Chamber fostered a ‘toxic’ workplace that enabled harassment to occur and created a hostile work environment.

The investigators find that Governor Cuomo’s actions and those of the Executive Chamber violated multiple state and federal laws, as well as the Executive Chamber’s own written policies.”

Ironically, Cuomo had championed

Many doubt Cuomo will run for office again. With potential court cases that might put him in legal jeopardy, he might even be barred from seeking an elected office.

His enduring legacy will probably be the big projects that he pushed through. These included the replacement of the Tappan Zee Bridge, the Long Island Rail Road Expansion Project, the airport renovations, Moynihan Train Hall and the East Side Access Tunnel.

In the social sphere, he championed marriage equality well before the Supreme Court legalized it. There was also the legalization of both medical and recreational marijuana.

In the economic sphere he managed to achieve something that his father Mario and other predecessors could not—on-time state budgets. He proved his fiscal conservative bona fides by introducing the 2 percent tax cap to put the break on runaway spending and refusing progressives’ push to raise taxes on the state’s wealthiest. Another consequential decision was banning fracking for gas in the state in 2014. He also pushed through a $15 minimum wage while the federal standard has been stuck at $7.25 since 2009.

In a press conference on Aug. 11 Hochul said, “I spoke with Governor Cuomo yesterday and he pledged his full support for a smooth transition.”

Regarding his decision to step down she said, “I believe it is appropriate and in the best interests of the people of the State of New York.”

Hochul, who annually traveled to all 62 counties in her seven years as the state’s second official, pledged that her administration will be transparent. She has already announced she will seek to win election on her own in 2022.

A reporter noted that in the Attorney General’s report several members of the governor’s staff were implicated in trying to discredit the women who accused him of sexual harassment. “Are you planning on keeping any of them around?” she was asked.

She replied, “No one who was named as doing anything unethical in that report will remain in my administration. There will be turnover.”

A Sort Of Olympic Homecoming

Silver medalist Andrew Capobianco returns to his Long Island roots

BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

A

little over a week after Andrew Capobianco and partner Michael Hixon took silver in the finals of the men’s synchronized 3m springboard at the Tokyo Olympics, Capobianco was accorded a hero’s welcome at the Hicksville Athletic Center. Mineola-born and a Wantagh resident until his family moved to the South when he was 14, the red-haired Olympian’s Long Island roots run deep despite having graduated from Holly Springs High in North Carolina.

As he stepped out of an SUV that came at the tail-end of a Nassau County Police Department (NCPD) escort, Ed Sheeran’s “Castle On the Hill” played on overhead speakers while assorted local officials clutched American flags and hundreds of Police Athletic League campers cheered and chanted “USA, USA, USA.” In addition to snagging a silver medal, Capobianco qualified for the individual 3m dive and was the only American to advance to the finals, finishing 10th out of 12 divers from an original field of 29. Accompanied by parents Darlene and Mike Capobianco, his brothers and grandparents, the amiable athlete was greeted by longtime family friend George Taylor III, who was Capobianco’s coach when he started diving at 11, having spent the prior few years excelling at gymnastics. Also on hand were Nassau County Supervisor Laura Curran, NCPD Commissioner Patrick Ryder, former Congressman Peter King, Town of Oyster Bay Supervisor Joseph Saladino, Councilman Tom Hand, Legislator Rose Walker and Councilwoman Laura Maier.

Capobianco’s athletic pursuits started when he was eight and threw himself into being a gymnast. By the time he was in middle school, he had won a level 8 Junior Olympic national title on floor exercise for his age group in 2013. His diving accomplishments were equally impressive. As a middle schooler, Capobianco broke a 22-year-old Nassau County high school diving county points record under Taylor. For his old coach, this success came as no surprise, as he became a bit emotional while sharing his experiences as he spoke to the crowd gathered inside the athletic center.

“I told Andrew’s dad from day one

Team USA Olympic Diver Andrew Capobianco brought his recent silver medal to share with PAL campers at the Hicksville Athletic Center (Photos by Dave Gil de Rubio) that I knew Andrew was going to be someone very incredible,” he said.

“I have an article from 2012 where I was quoted as saying that he would be in play in 2020, so I actually called it. Andrew is probably one of the best athletes I ever coached. I really have to thank his parents. He’s very humble, was always an excellent kid to coach, got along with everybody and is just a real stand-up athlete. I’m really grateful to be part of his life and to have been his coach.”

As each person took the podium, the message of discipline, humility and focus was hammered home, whether it came from Curran (“Someone saw a young boy with talent and nurtured that talent and you, with the discipline and work habits, made it happen.”), Saladino (“Kids, you can see through this example that through hard work in sports, school and everywhere, you too can earn the medals of life.”), Walker (“As Andrew will tell you, he didn’t get here just because he wanted to dive. He got here through his hard work and dedication”) or former Capobianco gymnast coach Kiran Krowl (“I am so very proud of him, not just because he’s the Olympic silver medalist, but because of the teammate he is, person that he is and kid he is.”)

With both parents having served with the NCPD, public service is part of their son’s DNA. Capobianco himself was very straightforward in his duties as a role model while informing the PAL campers of the sacrifices necessary to reach his goals.

Andrew Capobianco arriving at the Hicksville Athletic Center with parents Darlene (second from right) and Mike (far right) as former coach George Taylor (third from left) greets them

The Hicksville Athletic Center was packed with PAL campers and local officials who came to celebrate Andrew Capobianco’s Olympic success “You want to have balance in your life, so when your parents tell you to go to school and do your homework, I’m sorry to tell you that you have to go to school and do your homework, because you’re not going to become as good as you want to be in your athletics if you’re not doing well in your academics,” he said. “For me, [becoming an Olympian] took a lot of hard work and some great people behind me. I also practice four hours a day, six days a week.”

Currently competing for Indiana University Bloomington, Capobianco has been a seven-time All-American, and as a red shirt junior, won his second NCAA 3m crown and second Big Ten Diver of the Year. With the next Summer Olympics set for 2024, the

lithe 21-year-old is firmly setting his sights on Paris. But in the meantime, he’s full cognizant of the role growing up on Long Island played in helping him achieve his goals.

“The community I grew up in was so incredibly supportive of my dreams the whole time,” he said. “Just going to school in Wantagh, all the kids knew what I was going for and everyone was cheering me on the whole way.

Especially now when I was at the Olympics, I felt so much love from the community on Long Island, more than anywhere else. I’m just so grateful.”

Great Neck Rotary Band Performs Final Summer Concert To A Packed House

O

n July 28, the Great Neck Rotary Summer Community Band gave its final performance of the summer season. It’s been an especially challenging season for the band because of COVID restrictions and, often, rainy weather. Regrettably, this resulted in minimal rehearsal time. However, despite these obstacles, the band performed magnificently under the leadership of conductor Jacqueline Tomlet.

This was the 21st year that the GN Rotary Band presented a summer concert series for our community. Unfortunately, last summer, due to the pandemic, the concert series was canceled. So, people were eager and thrilled to have the opportunity to once again

The band repertoire was quite varied — playing, among other things, standard patriotic marches (i.e.

National Emblem March), show tunes (i.e. Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat), and classical (i.e.

Amparito Roca) and jazz (i.e.

Mathnasium Power Math Boot Camp Helps Students Prepare For Upcoming School Year With students facing the upcoming school year almost a half-year behind in math due to the pandemic, Mathnasium of Great Neck, Roslyn and Port Washington are offering their August Power Math Boot Camp to get students on strong footing before the start of classes in September. Children can “power up” on math with unlimited sessions during the weeks of Aug. 16 and Aug. 23.

The math-only learning centers fill in knowledge gaps, keep students caught up in school and make learning math fun. Mathnasium also provides enrichment support for those students who are at or above grade level, keeping them challenged. Using the Mathnasium Method, knowledgeable instructors teach face-to-face, leveraging a unique combination of mental, verbal, visual, tactile and written techniques. Mathnasium also offers Mathnasium@ home, an online learning experience. Mathnasium serves

students of all grade levels, from Kindergarten, with its Numerical Fluency Program, up through 12th grade, where they provide students with homework and schoolwork help in addition to building their foundational skills.

“Mathnasium gives students an edge in math, and that leads to improved confidence overall,” Karen Flyer, owner and center director of Mathnasium of Great Neck said. “Our expert instructors don’t just teach students to memorize or calculate; they teach them to truly understand the way math works. Which is why Mathnasium students make huge strides in the classroom and become more motivated and self-assured overall.”

Students testing in 2021 were about ten points behind in math and nine points behind in reading, compared with matched students in previous years, a study by McKinsey & Company stated. While students normally experience

a loss in math learning over the summer, for this school year in particular, programs like Mathnasium’s are even more important due to the “COVID Slide” students have suffered as a result of the lackluster learning which took place during the pandemic. A study

by McKinsey & Company showed that “the impact of the pandemic on K–12 student learning was significant, leaving students on average five months behind in mathematics and four months behind in reading by the end of the school year.” McKinsey warns that: “The fallout from the pandemic threatens to depress this generation’s prospects and constrict their opportunities far into adulthood. The ripple effects may undermine their chances of attending college and ultimately finding a fulfilling job that enables them to support a family.”

Vincenza Caruso, a Northwell Health employee that works as a consultant for the city’s Age Friendly Initiative explained that back in 2018, former Glen Cove Senior Center Executive Director Carol Waldman had worked with her to get the City of Glen Cove designated as Age Friendly by AARP. A couple of years after Glen Cove was designated as age friendly by AARP, Waldman partnered with Nassau County to apply for a grant from the State Department of Health and the Office for the Aging to become a “Center of Excellence,” meaning that the city would be a model for other communities. Walk With a Doc was started in 2005 by Dr. David Sabgir, a cardiologist in Columbus, Ohio. Since his first event, Walk With a Doc grew as a grassroots effort that now has over 500 chapters worldwide.

But because of COVID we ended up

doing it virtually the past few months.”

As this past Walk With a Doc event went on in-person, whether or not next month’s event will be in person depends on if the rise of COVID-19 cases will spark public health restrictions.

July was a busy month with members donating to St. Kilian’s Outreach Program (SKOP). Groceries and household goods, including food, canned goods, toiletries, accessories and baby goods were collected to keep the shelves fully stocked during the critical summer months. At this time of year, SKOP is very much in need of a boost to their pantry and the club was able to fill and donate 26 bags.

The Welfare Committee, chaired

ith Long Island and the entire New York City metropolitan area still expecting high temperatures and humidity, PSEG Long Island asks its customers to voluntarily conserve electricity when possible.

Proactive measures have been set in place to address energy demands across Long Island. PSEG expects to have sufficient electricity from available sources to meet forecasted customer demand, contingent upon other transmission and generation facilities remaining in service. To ensure the demand does not exceed forecasts, customers in Nassau and Suffolk counties are asked to use electricity wisely.

Customers are encouraged to take these easy and practical energy conservation measures that can reduce peak demand on the system and save them money.

• Set home thermostats or air conditioner units to 78 degrees.

• Run major appliances such as washing machines, dishwashers and pool pumps, in the morning or late evening to avoid the peak demand hours of 2 to 8 p.m.

• Set refrigerators and

freezers at most-efficient temperatures.

• 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. Customers can receive an incentive on qualifying thermostats for enrolling in PSEG’s Smart Savers Thermostat program, which can be used to control usage during peak summer days. Visit www. psegliny.com/ smartsavers for more details.

• 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.)

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

• Replace old appliances with new energy efficient ENERGY STAR appliances • Replace air filters monthly.

Dirty filters make your air conditioner work harder.

Seaford Students Are Prepared To Save Lives

S

eaford’s Secondary Summer Experience program kicked off with a life-saving lesson on Aug. 3 at the high school. The first of eight workshops, for students entering grades 7-12, was a CPR/AED training course.

High school physical education teacher and district athletic trainer Michael Spreckels began the workshop by teaching 18 students what to do in case of an emergency and how to perform hands-only CPR. Students then practiced these chest compressions using dummies, which Seaford received several years ago for the “Anyone Can Save a Life” program. Spreckels and middle school physical education and health teacher Krista Ancona checked in on the students to make sure they were using the proper technique and answer any questions.

Next, students were introduced to the automated external defibrillators, which are available at their schools. Spreckels explained what they are and how they work, in addition to showing them how to use the life-saving device. The workshop concluded with a simulation of a medical emergency, in which students implemented the strategies they learned in the class.

“It’s a life skill,” Spreckels said of being able to save a life, noting that his goal was to empower students to take action, with confidence, in a crisis.

He added that there can never be enough people in a community who are prepared for an emergency.

The Secondary Summer Experience program features courses on Tuesday and Thursday evenings through Aug. 26 and is funded through federal grant money. Other activities include a forensic science lab, a coding and robotics course, basketball night, a Mario Kart tournament, team-building exercises, art-the magic of patterns, and bowties and badminton, all led by teachers from the high school and middle school.

High school Principal Nicole Schnabel said courses represent a variety of content areas and have generated a lot of interest, with strong early registration numbers. Each workshop ends with a visit from the ice cream man, and students are also asked to bring school supplies to donate to the John Theissen Children’s Foundation.

New Garage Is All About The Future

BY FRANK RIZZO

T

frizzo@antonmediagroup.com

he Westbury railroad station parking garage was conceived at a time when ridership on the Long Island Rail Road was steadily rising and parking spaces at railroad stations were at a premium.

The COVID-19 pandemic changed all that. Many daily commuters have not returned to shuttered NYC offices. The shutdown of the city’s rich cultural world depressed the ridership as well.

According to Westbury Mayor Peter Cavallaro, the number of annual commuter parking tickets sold to Westbury residents is about half of what it was pre-pandemic. The facility has room for 683 cars, and 376 spaces are reserved for Westbury residents.

Surrounding the garage are an additional 107 resident-only surface spots.

All this was on the mind of MTA Acting Chairman and CEO Janno Lieber and Long Island Rail Road President Phil Eng when they came to the village on Aug. 9 to cut the ribbon for the new facility. As the transportation leaders spoke, a digital display above the garage door indicated that 536 spaces were available.

“Are you still confident that all of these spaces will be needed?” Lieber was asked.

He replied, “Nobody has a crystal ball on how quickly ridership is going to come back, but the projections that we have made show that the commuter railroad ridership is going to take a couple of years, but it is going to come back. And what the Third Track project is delivering is the ability to do much more. [We have] the incredible safety benefits of eliminating all those grade crossings and having the capacity to run true reverse commuting for the first time in anybody’s memory— these are truly huge benefits.”

He added, “We would not be depending on the exact pace of ridership returning to justify this project. There are so many other reasons. But we’re also confident with the dynamic Long Island economy that we’re seeing that ridership is going to come back and we need to be ready and this project makes that certain.”

Celebrating Partnership

Nassau County Executive Laura Curran was also on hand, and joined Lieber and Eng in celebrating the partnership among agencies, contractors and municipalities that helped to move the Long Island Expansion Project forward.

“I recall back in 2016, during the initial outreach, [Mayor Cavallaro’s] open dialogue with us in regards to this project and the needs of the community,” the LIRR chief said. “Because of this open dialogue between all of these important stakeholders, we’re working together. We’ve been able to accomplish big things for the Long Island Railroad customers here and at all the other communities that we serve. We’re thrilled to have this parking garage as part of our transportation network solution.”

The kind of downtowns that I can envision my children wanting to live, and spend time in the future.”

He concluded, “We’ve done not just big things, but meaningful things with more to come.”

Town Announces Cannabis Task Force Members

orth Hempstead Town Supervisor Judi Bosworth and the town board recently announced that the town has established a Cannabis Task Force to advise whether North Hempstead should opt-out of the sale and on-site consumption of recreational cannabis.

Bosworth formed the Cannabis Task Force to ensure the Town Board considers all perspectives. The task force will be comprised of residents and experts in various fields such as business, health, and public safety.

“It is our responsibility, as a town, to listen to the varying perspectives of our constituents and use their input to decide what is in the best interest of the community,” Bosworth said.

“As with all issues brought before us, North Hempstead will take a measured approach to this decision, giving great care and consideration to all aspects. We look forward to a thoughtful and inclusive process as we move forward.”

Town Clerk Wayne Wink added, “I am proud to serve as chair and moderator for these upcoming committee listening sessions. All

MFD Juniors Do Rappelling Exercises

After a great deal of instruction and preparation, the Mineola Junior Firefighters performed a rappelling exercise. This special training with the instructors covered all aspects of this complex experience, beginning with making all preparations and setting up equipment. The process requires strict direction that must be followed by department members and the junior firefighters. Mineola is one the few departments that do this exciting training for their junior fire department.

community members will have ample opportunity to provide feedback and ask questions. It will be incumbent upon the committee to weigh all of their concerns and ultimately make a prudent recommendation to the town board.”

The Task Force will assist with conducting listening sessions to gather public input, weigh the advantages and disadvantages of opting out of the state legislation, make recommendations about the opt-out of the sale and

on-site consumption of recreational cannabis, and make recommendations on zoning and other legislation to address public safety and quality of life concerns.

The Task Force will be led by Wink who will serve as a moderator for the group. At the June 16 town board meeting, the town board members voted to approve the nomination of Deborah Abramson-Brooks, Sue Auriemma, Maria Elisa Cuadra, Leslie Davis, Dr. Betty Hylton, Jordan

Martin Park, 1601 Marcus Ave. in New Hyde Park; Tuesday, Oct. 19 at 6 p.m. at “Yes We Can” Community Center, 141 Garden St. in Westbury. Residents who wish to submit written comments can email CTF@northhempsteadny.gov.

New York State legislation regarding the legalization of adult-use recreational cannabis included a provision that allows cities, towns, and villages to opt-out of adult use retail dispensaries and/or on-site consumption licenses within their municipality. The legislation requires that a local municipality that wishes to opt-out must pass a local law by Dec. 31.

Among the featured single and multiple-week courses at Statford School were Rocketry and Retro Science; Bound for Broadway; Music, Movement and More; Cool Caribbean Cooking; Digital Film Making; Editing and Photography; Coding and Digital Programming and Creative Writing and Journalism. A variety of other classes focused on sports, STEAM and arts and crafts, and a new grant-funded program provided support in reading and math.

Students launched rockets, presented a Broadway musical revue, gained culinary expertise, expressed their creative talents, conducted experiments, and stayed physically active.

They also completed in an Olympics Day that featured a math component.

Secondary level participants enjoyed a painting class modeled after popular Paint Night events but held in the morning. They also created projects using advanced technology and had opportunities to take numerous college application prep classes.

The middle and high school program was new this year, and overall enrollment across all grades increased significantly from past summers.

“It’s a very well supported program from the community,” Enrichment Director Dan Seid said. “Every room in Stratford is used and classes run the gamut, the students are having a great summer and enjoying the classes they are learning so much from.”

During her time at Long Beach Public Schools, she also completed a middle school principal internship and an elementary coordinator of special education internship. From there, she made the move to Oceanside Public Schools in 2018, where she was the director of

elementary special education.

Westbury’s Jenkins Tabbed As Student Leader Bank of America announced that five Long Island high school students were chosen as paid summer interns and experienced workforce skills, leadership, and civic engagement serving with local United Way of Long Island, Family Service League and Long Island Cares.

Among those tabbed was Samara Jenkins of Westbury, a graduate of Jericho High School who interned with United Way of Long Island. She will be attending Temple University in the fall.

Without access to career skills-building opportunities like the Student Leaders program, many young people on Long Island may be left behind from a fast-changing job market, leading to higher rates of youth unemployment. As part of its commitment to workforce development as a pathway to economic mobility, Bank of America is connecting teens and young adults to paid jobs and internships across Long

Island through additional programs including partnerships with nonprofits and local governments.

“Bank of America’s continued commitment to workforce and youth development provides opportunities for employment, community engagement and research development to young adults on Long Island and across the country,” said Bob Isaksen, Long Island president of Bank of America. “Helping young people build skills and experience prepares them to become future leaders in our communities. Programs like Student Leaders provide students with paid opportunities to gain experience, building a stronger and more diverse talent pipeline as these young adults enter the workforce.”

Curran Cuts Ribbon On Newly Constructed Gazebo Destroyed During Tropical Storm Isaias

assau County Executive Laura Curran was joined by the family of a local Eagle Scout, Cory Levy and the family of slain ATF agent John Capano for a ribbon cutting ceremony for the reconstructed John Capano Memorial Gazebo at Washington Avenue Park in Seaford. One year ago, Tropical Storm Isaias swept up the East Coast causing millions of dollars’ worth of property damage, including the destruction of this memorial gazebo. The gazebo was originally built in 2014 by then 15-year Boy Scout Cory Levy to memorialize the tragic death of Capano, the slain federal agent from Seaford. With the help of the community, outside groups and Nassau County, the gazebo was rebuilt.

“It was important to us to rebuild this memorial gazebo after it was destroyed by Tropical Storm Isaias.

Important to not only help preserve the memory of John, but to send a clear message that Nassau County does not and will not forget those who put

themselves in harm’s way to protect our community,” Curran said. “We will always rebuild, and we will always come back stronger than before. I want to thank the Nassau County Parks Department for overseeing the reconstruction, along with the Long Island Board of Realtors, who generously helped fund this project.”

“Long Island Board of REALTORS® is honored to be a part of the reconstruction of the Seaford Memorial Gazebo, to ensure that slain federal agent John Capano’s sacrifice is not forgotten, and to restore the efforts and hard work by Eagle Scout Cory Levy,” said LIBOR President Susan Helsinger.

“As REALTORS®, it is our livelihood to support and assist in making our communities a better place to live, work and play.”

John Capano, who grew up in Seaford, died while attempting to stop a robbery at a local pharmacy on Dec. 31, 2011. Capano, a veteran AFT agent, thwarted the robbery, but was caught

Curran Files Plan To Provide $375 Cash Payments To Up To 400,000 Households

assau County Executive Laura Curran has filed an ordinance in the Nassau County Legislature appropriating $100 million provided to the county under the American Rescue Plan Act for one-time cash assistance of $375 to qualifying households (renters and homeowners, including residents living in cooperatives) that have experienced negative economic impacts due to the pandemic. The County Executive’s plan will extend much-needed relief to up to 400,000 qualifying households as they recover from the often-devastating effects of the pandemic.

The Household Assistance Program has been crafted following the Interim Final Rule adopted by the United States Treasury Department, which allows American Rescue Plan recipients such as Nassau County to provide assistance to households or populations facing negative economic impacts due to COVID–19, including cash assistance.

In doing so, Nassau may consider

negative economic impacts to households such as those who have experienced unemployment, food insecurity or housing insecurity or are low to moderate-income.

The Interim Final Rule does not define low- to moderate-income. Using the U.S. Department of Housing and Development’s (HUD) definition of Area Median Income (AMI) and the New York State Long Island Workforce Housing Act’s qualifying percentage of AMI for affordable workforce housing eligibility as guidance, the county has defined low and moderate income for HAP purposes to be up to 130 percent of HUD AMI for Nassau and Suffolk counties. That means an income level up to $168,900 may be considered in the low to moderate bracket Consultant HR&A, Inc. concluded this is an appropriate basis for HAP. HAP, therefore, will consist of two categories of eligible households: • Those with incomes up to $168,900 • Those with incomes above $168,900

up to $500,000.

Households in the first category are presumed to have experienced a negative economic impact from the pandemic and thus will not be required to demonstrate individual harm in their Boost Nassau Resource Portal Application. Households in the first category include those receiving Enhanced (senior) STAR, Limited Incomes and Disabilities and/or Senior Citizens property tax exemptions. Households in this group will not need to provide income information, nor complete an application.

Households in the second category (income above $168,900) up to $500,000 will be required to submit a Boost Nassau Portal application with documentation evidencing a negative economic impact from the pandemic, such as unemployment (e.g., receipt of unemployment benefits during 2020), food or housing insecurity (e.g., receipt of social services benefits, missed mortgage payments, utility arrears, eviction

notices), unreimbursed medical bills (e.g., behavioral health costs brought on by the pandemic), increased child-care expenses, COVID 19-related death expenses or unreimbursed remote learning/work expenses including increased internet costs.

The county will utilize the existing Boost Nassau Resource Portal to streamline the application process, comptroller approval and distribution of funds. To ensure compliance with federal guidance, the county will identify eligible households and verify incomes using income tax statements and available databases where possible, and will set up an application process with outreach for others not listed in such existing records.

The HAP will be funded at $100 million from the county’s first distribution of American Rescue Plan Act, which totaled $192,501,720. The county is expected to receive a second distribution in May 2022. —Submitted by the office of Nassau County Executive

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR HARD TO BELIEVE BUT TRUE

The late legendary broadcaster, activist and political commentator, Clayton Riley, would implore his listeners at the end of each of his commentaries to “keep a good thought and pay very special attention.” This was what scores of Nassau County residents apparently did when they packed the county legislature meeting room in Mineola on Monday, Aug. 2, to protest one of the most egregious bills in recent memory that was being voted on that day, and which was not in the best interest of black, brown and so-called minority people.

The bill, introduced by Legislator Joshua Lafazan, would designate police officers a “protected class” under the country’s human rights law and allow them to sue those who harass, menace, assault or injure them, to the tune of up to $50,000 per violation without [police] having to show proof.

Despite the efforts of speaker after speaker during the public comment section pointing out the subjective nature of the bill in granting more power to a group of individuals already armed with a gun, trained in the use of deadly force, and who have

more legal protection than a civilian, the bill passed 12-6.

State Assemblyman Charles Lavine pleaded with the legislature to table the bill in order to allow for more robust public discussion and input, but this was to no avail. The call for tabling this proposal made sense since a wide cross section of people were unaware of its existence; I for one only learned about it the day before the vote, and the people I contacted were also unaware, yet we managed to rally a fair amount of people to show up at the hearing. It is clear that the intent was to go “under

the radar” and keep as many people as possible in the dark so to speak.

Thanks to the efforts of Legislator Siela Bynoe (D–Westbury, District 2), who led the charge in opposing this bill from the get-go. This allowed for some degree of national attention in this matter, being reported by CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, 1010 WINS radio and just about all the local news outlets, sparking hope that it is not a done deal and that County Executive Laura Curran will do the right thing in not signing this bill into law.

What Simone Biles Has Taught Us After working in the mental health field for more than two decades, it should have come as no shock to me when I read some of the negative responses to Simone Biles’ announcement that she was pulling out of the Olympics team competition due to anxiety and other emotional challenges—but it stung, nevertheless.

On social media, TV and other outlets, outraged commenters called her everything from a coward to a quitter to a spoiled brat. Texas Deputy Attorney General Aaron Reitz went so far as say that Biles was a “national embarrassment.”

Former British TV host Piers Morgan tweeted, “Are ‘mental health issues’ now the go-to excuse for any poor performance in elite sport? What a joke. Just admit you did badly, made mistakes and will strive to do better next time. Kids need strong role models, not this nonsense.”

Would these naysayers have been so harsh if Biles had pulled out because of a broken foot or burst appendix?

These comments are a clear

PARENTING PLUS Kathy Rivera

sign that stigma surrounding mental health issues is still pervasive. Fortunately, however, there was some very positive news: The level of support for Biles from other athletes, celebrities, public figures and everyday people far outweighed the negativity, with many describing her frankness in discussing mental health as brave and inspiring.

Olympic swimming champion Michael Phelps, who has been open about his own mental health challenges, put it this way: “We’re human

beings. Nobody is perfect. It’s OK to not be OK. It’s OK to go through ups and down and emotional roller coasters. The biggest thing is, we all need to ask for help when we go through those times.”

While few of our children are under the intense public scrutiny as are Biles, Phelps, tennis star Naomi Osaka or the many celebrities who have been discussing their mental health issues, they still face enormous pressures, especially given the disruption and fear brought on by the pandemic.

At North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center, we’ve been receiving a growing number of calls from parents concerned about their children and teens’ mental health.

Many describe classic signs of depression and anxiety: withdrawal from friends, lack of interest in activities that normally gave them pleasure, mood swings, agitation, sleeplessness (or oversleeping), changes to eating patterns, substance abuse—even thoughts of suicide.

While mental health issues

existed in kids long before the pandemic struck (an estimated one in five youth experience a mental illness), I believe we are on the verge of a crisis that may well surpass anything we’ve ever experienced. For many young people, their very foundations were shaken apart during the pandemic, with fear and hopelessness about the future enveloping them to the point of unending despair.

How can you help? The situation with Simone Biles has provided an opportunity for families to discuss stigma and for caregivers to teach kids that no one should ever feel ashamed if they are feeling sad, anxious or emotionally overwhelmed. You can tell your children that Simone was brave to speak out and put her mental health first. You can also let them know that you are there for them, without judgment and with an open mind and heart, whenever they are feeling down.

You can also encourage your schools, religious organizations, medical professionals and other community

resources to include discussions about mental health and provide resources for kids who are having difficulties. Don’t hesitate to reach out to mental health organizations like ours for information and support.

Bottom line: It’s everyone’s responsibility to educate themselves about mental health and to stand up to stigma. Let’s use the opportunity surrounding Simone Biles’ brave decision to open up about her struggles to provide our kids with the knowledge, support and understanding they will need during the challenges that lie ahead.

Happy Birthday MTA Chairman Robert Kiley Aug. 9 was the fifth anniversary of the passing of late New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority Chairman Robert Kiley. Let us not forget him and those who followed him in spending close to $130 billion dollars in past multi-year MTA Capital Programs.

In May 1981, MTA Chairman Richard Ravitch wrote a letter to then Governor Hugh Carey, members of the New York State legislature, along with New York City Mayor Ed Koch. He asked that prompt action be taken to meet the increasingly desperate situation of public transit.

It was a time when subway and bus ridership was falling due to track fires, equipment failures, chronic delays, growing crime and out-of-control graffiti.

In June 1981, the state legislature responded. They passed and Carey signed into law the Transportation System

Assistance and Financing Act of 1981. This afforded MTA legal authority to issue bonds for funding. In the following September, the first modern MTA five-year capital program totaling $7.2 billion was approved. This began the rebuilding of New York City’s subway and bus systems. Long Island and Metro North Rail Roads quickly followed.

One of then-Governor Mario Cuomo’s best transportation decisions was his appointment of Kiley as MTA chairman. Kiley was the

longest-serving MTA chairman, holding the position between November 1983 until January 1991.

Kiley oversaw a major restoration of a transit system that was on the decline. Under his watch, with the assistance of New York City Transit President David Gunn, who served from 1984 to 1990, the MTA invested in new subway cars and buses, upgraded subway stations, tracks and signals, along with improving on-time performance. This resulted in a significant increase in ridership. Elimination of graffiti, especially on subway cars, was a top priority.

Kiley also brought on board Bill Bratton as chief of New York City’s Transit Police to improve safety.

He supported planning initiatives which served as the foundation to advance the MTA New York City Transit’s fare system from tokens to the Metro Card.

As MTA Chairman, under his watch, Kiley was also successful in winning several billion dollars in grants from the Urban Mass Transportation Administration today known as the Federal Transit Administration.

Washington played a major role in paying for many capital improvements.

Following the historic 198286 effort under Kiley, MTA capital programs for 1987–91, 1992–99, 2000–04, 2005–09, 2010–14 and 2015-19 funding totaled almost $130 billion dollars.

Federal support for transportation has continued to grow over time. When a crises occurred, be it 9-11 in 2001, Super Storm Sandy in 2012 or COVID-19 in 2020, Washington was there for us.

Additional billions in assistance above and beyond yearly formula allocations from the Federal Transit Administration (prior to 1991 known as

UMTA) were provided. In 2009 the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act provided billions more.

Washington has made available $1.5 billion in 2021 FTA funding for the MTA. This does not include more than $18 billion in CARE COVID-19 transit emergency relief funding. There are other opportunities for hundreds of millions more in discretionary national competitive grant programs.

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

NEIGHBORS IN THE NEWS To spark interest in locally significant areas of history and culture, the Levittown School District provided an educational opportunity for students through its annual Adventures in Local History Program, which consisted of five days of field trips across Long Island.

A group of 18 students, from fourth through eighth grade, visited the Bailey Arboretum, Garvies Point Preserve and Museum, Cradle of Aviation Museum, Long Island Aquarium and Long Island Holocaust Museum and Tolerance

Oyster Bay Town Clerk Rich LaMarca announced that residents who wish to engage in some form of family research may do so through ancestral services offered by his office.

Residents can fill out a form to search birth, death and marriage records for genealogical purposes, and these early vital records might just provide the piece of information about ancestors that you’ve been seeking.

“In recent years, ancestral research has become one of the world’s most popular hobbies and countless people around the world are actively engaged in some form of developing a family

tree,” LaMarca said. “Whether it’s to satisfy a curiosity about oneself, provide children with a sense of who their ancestors were or to compile a medical history, people are trying to get in touch with their roots.

Vital records are the cornerstone of genealogical research and my office is proud to provide dates and locations of events in the life of an ancestor, as well as other useful data.”

The Town of Oyster Bay maintains records dating back to 1881. To protect the privacy of the living, birth records will not be released unless the record has been on file for at least 75 years

and the person to whom the record relates is deceased. Death records will not be released unless the record has been on file for at least 50 years.

Additionally, marriage records will not be released unless the record has been on file for at least 50 years and both parties to the marriage are known to be deceased. The fee for a genealogical search varies depending on the number of years requested to be searched and can range from $22 to $162.

Now more than ever, we can count on the latest, exciting technology to help achieve the best possible cosmetic surgery results. We are each confronted by the media with hundreds of alternatives to helping improve our appearance, regain our youth and tone up our bodies.

The reality is that the true secret to maintaining a youthful look is paying attention to the basic issues that you can control – getting adequate sleep, drinking plenty of water, watching your diet and finding the time to exercise.

What many of us find, however, is that this quest for beautiful skin and a beautiful body can be quite frustrating. We can help you obtain the look that you are striving for by using the available advancements in technology to assist you in attaining your goals.

If you are interested in looking thinner and shapelier, consider Dr. Greenberg’s revolutionary Plasma Lipo™, a perfect combination of body contouring procedures. Plasma Lipo™ is a liposuction system that offers a revolutionary and minimally invasive procedure for the removal of fat with less downtime and fewer side effects than traditional liposuction. It is performed utilizing plasma technology to obtain better skin

retraction resulting in a tighter abdomen, thighs, arms, chest and neck.

The newest technology for hair restoration is NeoGraft, which is the first and only Class One FDA Listed automated medical system for hair restoration. This system harvests, collects, and implants individual follicular grafts for a natural look. Follicular unit extraction is an advanced, minimally-invasive hair transplant method which allows for the harvesting of individual follicles from the donor area without a scalpel incision or the necessary stitches, and therefore leaves no linear scar. Results are natural and permanent hair growth. Neograft can be performed with PRP Therapy for more dramatic results.

Another avenue to consider when pursuing your desire to look younger are “injectables”, which are effective in reducing lines and wrinkles on the face, without surgery. Botox and Dysport as well as dermal fillers such as Juvederm and Restylane will provide a refreshed and more youthful look quickly.

What better time than now to work on getting ready for your ideal shape?

Remember, the perfect cosmetic surgery package can help create the perfect you.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). There is no good reason your success should elude you. You’re ready; you’re talented; and you have the goods. Additionally, this thing you want would be a stellar fit for your life. If it remains out of reach, it’s only because it remains out of focus. Stop dividing your time. Prioritize ruthlessly. Organize around it.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re skilled in the art of diffusing tension and de-escalating conflict. In difficult and complicated negotiations, you’re the calm eye of the storm. When things seem to be reaching an emotional peak, move slow, talk low and come up with a reason to leave for a moment. In stepping back, you get closer.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It feels like you are fighting the good fight on a grand scale, though perhaps it’s really a small scale approached with grand feeling. Either way, you can be sure you’re making a difference, and your growing passion will have even greater impact in the future.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Forget about trying to be popular, appropriate or correct. Cooperation is more important than any detail or technicality. Solve the matter at hand. It is said that love is the answer, but not for this week’s problem.

Love is too open to interpretation. What’s needed here is more cut and dried. The answer: respect.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The spider spins a gossamer web -- intricate, symmetrical and artistic. And though this may be the spider’s lovely home, its primary purpose is to catch a meal. This week, stay far away from the glittery attractions designed to catch more than just your interest, which are stickier and more dangerous than they look.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). People won’t surprise you too much; your predictions about them will be about right. You can definitely use this to your advantage. When the rewards come, accept them as perks of the people skills you’ve honed. Your sharp observations and keen knowledge of human character were bound to pay off sometime.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Power is not freedom. The power position often has more limits, rules and responsibilities than a lower-status position. Another thing to consider: Everyone in power owes a debt to someone. Before you seize the high-status position, be sure you know the cost. Ask yourself, “Is it really worth it?”

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). At times, you’ve felt you were reacting to life -- dealing with its impositions and struggling through its obstacle course. This week represents a shift in your approach. You become proactive -- an artist with a strong vision. You’ll invent your life in your head first and then live your creation.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll witness a shift in a relationship this week. Your sense of emotional security doesn’t ride on this. Wisdom has taught you how relationships don’t really progress -- they just change. With an accepting spirit, you can see differences as beautiful in their own way. One form isn’t better than another.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The right decision is not to decide. Stand in one place, and let the scene move around you. It’s like you’re in a cloud that lets the light in dramatically and unpredictably, highlighting various meanings and options. By the end of the week, you’ll have many new insights about the environment and your place in it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’re still processing an event from years ago and will be surprised at how it pops up as a topic this week. Friends may not seem to completely understand you or relate to you in the way you’d prefer, but interactions will still have benefits that far outweigh what you can learn by keeping everything to yourself.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you only interacted with the people and things you liked, your world would be small and sad. While some new interests spark immediate and obvious affinity, many are slow-growing attractions -- tastes, talents and passions that must be cultivated. It will benefit you to give things a chance to grow on you.

Small Boys With Big Dreams Roslyn Pee Wees are emerging pros

BY FRANK RIZZO

on’t mind youth sports league participation levels with such old-fashioned names as Midgets or Pee Wees. They are often, after all, the starting points for future professional athletes.

And when a former accomplished hockey professional picks you for an all-star team that will compete in the world’s greatest youth tourney, you know you’ve got the chops.

Ex-Islander Benoit “Benny” Hogue tapped Roslyn’s Gilbert Sudaley and Maddox Franks, both 12, for the February 2022 Le Tournoi International de Hockey Pee-Wee de Québec. It will host 144 teams from all over the world.

Sudaley and Franks were among the 16 selected by Hogue this past June to the Long Island All Stars, who will be playing at the highest youth level, AAA. The two are classmates at Roslyn Middle School, entering the seventh grade.

Gilbert is the son of Robert and Marion Sudaley and plays center.

Maddox, a goalie, is the son of Larry Franks, MD, and his wife Shari.

Age 12 is the cut off for Pee Wee. The next level is Bantam (ages 13-14).

According to Robert Sudaley, Hogue “has sole discretion of who is on the team, and there is no criteria. It’s all completely up to him.”

Though they will be teammates on the select tourney squad, the boys will be rivals this fall when their respective club hockey teams tangle. Sudaley suits up for the PAL Juniors while Franks guards the net for the Long Island Gulls.

Both teams play at the AAA level.

Roslyn High School does have a varsity hockey team and Robert said it’s possible to play both school and club hockey, but the demands on time would be enormous.

Robert added, “The [Juniors] practice twice a week at Northwell Health Ice Center at Eisenhower Park. Travel is extensive—almost every weekend. They’re very lucky to have Northwell, a beautiful rink for the kids to play.”

According to Larry Franks, “Travel hockey is a five-day-a-week affair. They train three days a week for about two hours a day and they travel and play games on weekends,

consisting of anywhere from two to four games on any given weekend.”

Robert Sudaley said that “Basic costs for dues for both club and Quebec Tournament tops $10,000, plus travel expenses.”

Both boys started out learning to skate and handle a puck playing for various teams at the Long Island Edge, a Port Washington-based ice hockey and figure skating center run by Fred Nielsen and his son Kristian. Sudaley called it “a great local resource. Fred has been like an uncle to Gilbert.”

Do their sons have professional aspirations?

“To play in the NHL,” Robert Sudaley said simply.

Larry Franks answered, “Yes, that is all he thinks about. His goal and focus is to play in the National Hockey League.

He is very talented and one of the best 12-year-old goalies in the United States.

I’m going to provide him with all the tools to get him where he wants to go.

He has private goalie coaching once a week aside from his regular team training. He played on two different teams this summer to get exposure. So far everything is aligned for him to attain his goals and dreams.”
