Neo-Nazi Gibberish Left On Lawns, Cars

Double-sided fliers with antitransgender and century-old antisemitic drivel found in three Nassau communities ANTON MEDIA GROUP STAFF editors@antonmediagroup.com

N

assau police and lawmakers are looking for answers about the party or parties responsible for distributing fliers containing antisemitic, antitransgender disinformation in three Nassau County communities in July.

The Nassau County Police Department says that one or more people in a white 2009 or 2010 Toyota Prius may be among those responsible for littering southern Nassau communities with antisemetic, white nationalistic propaganda two weekends ago. According to police and local leaders, at least a few dozen fliers were surreptitiously distributed sometime between late Thursday, July 21 and early Saturday, July 23.

Distribution of the fliers seemingly occurred in at least two ‘waves’ late at night on Thursday and then Friday. separated by an initial wave of public condemnation.

The fliers were first discovered in Oceanside and Rockville Centre on Friday morning, July 22, folded into plastic bags weighed down with grain and tossed onto residents’ front steps or lawns. That day, Rockville Centre police and a handful of local legislators and rabbis held a press conference condemning the actions, and displaying a large blow-up of one side of the flier. Rockville Centre Mayor Francis X. Murray commented during the presser, “This divisive rhetoric and behavior needs to be stopped now.”

Then on Saturday, July 23, residents of Long Beach reported finding the fliers tucked under their cars’ windshield wipers; according to local sources, yet more fliers were also found that day back in Oceanside.

Some area residents believe the bagged fliers were placed on their property by someone moving on foot, rather than tossed from a moving car.

Printed on one of side of the fliers in question is a version of the more than a century old, fictitious, antisemitic propaganda “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” which suggests that Jewish people are hoarding wealth but also plan to “introduce a progressive wealth tax,” among other hateful and known-to-be-dangerous nonsense.

On the back of the fliers, versions of which have been spotted in a handful of U.S. states, is more antisemetic propaganda (depending on the flier batch, alternately declaring that “every single aspect” of the Biden Administration, the Covid pandemic,

formal investigation into the fliers’ distribution by the Nassau County Task Force to Combat Antisemitism. In a letter to Rabbi Elie Weinstock, chair of the task force, Drucker wrote, “I strongly believe that an investigation by the Task Force to Combat Antisemitism would be highly beneficial in our efforts to assuage the legitimate and growing concerns that Nassau County residents have expressed in recent days regarding these disgusting incidents.

Furthermore, facts and data gathered during such an exercise will provide us with crucial guidance as we devise comprehensive public outreach campaigns and law enforcement strategies in the interest of preventing hateful acts like these in the future.”

Faraway Conflict Touches Jericho Resident’s Firm FRANK RIZZO frizzo@antonmediagroup.com

T

he war in Ukraine, seemingly so far away, has had implications as close as the gas pump—and at a modest Westbury warehouse.

Drive past All Round Foods on Railroad Avenue and occasionally you’re bound to see trucks affiliated with the U.S. armed services’ Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) loading containers bound for the huge ships plying the global trade. They will carry all manner of frozen bakery products to troops stationed on NATO’s frontline countries, such as Poland, as the military alliance seeks to check Russian aggression.

Glen Wolther of Jericho has owned the frozen foods distribution firm since 1994.

After Russia invaded its fellow Slavic neighbor in February, he told the Illustrated News, the quantity of distribution overseas immediately quickened.

“Before Ukraine, we were shipping maybe one two three containers a week. Now we’re shipping six to nine containers per week,” he said earlier this year (the pace has since slowed of late). “That’s why County Executive Blakeman came to the warehouse.”

The executive took a tour of the facility earlier this year.

Some of the product is going to the NATO base in Poland, he said, which he supplied with numerous containers of brownies, croissants and Kaiser rolls.

Asked how he came to supply the military with bakery products, Wolther said it took a long time, mentioning a time frame of seven to 10 years. It involved calling upon distributors affiliated with the DLA and finally flying overseas and meeting with people who could make such decisions.

“Did you have to hire more people or expand your facilities to meet this increased demand?” he was asked.

“No, we just have to turn over our inventory faster [in our] cold storage warehouse,” he replied.

All Round Foods’ products, which are baked elsewhere and frozen at the warehouse, wind up in places as diverse as Navy ships or an American nuclear base in Turkey.

“I serviced Ramstein Air Force Base, which had 55,000 people when I was there a few years ago. They could have 100,000 there now,” Wolther said, He related that he got a call from an Italy-based distributor at the end of February. It was about 8 a.m. New York time.

“I was amazed Bruce Blakeman came down to my place,” said Wolther, left, posing with the county executive. “Assemblyman [Charles] Lavine has been to my place to thank me for what I’m doing for the military.” (Office of the County Executive) “‘Will you be able to supply us with the basics?’ he asked me. I supply white bread, wheat bread, hamburger rolls, hot dog rolls and bagels,” Wolther recalled. “I said yes. I said I’m concerned about what’s going on with the containers because there were [supply chain] problems back in February and he said, ‘Yes, we’re aware of it, we’re talking to the [DLA].’ And then he proceeded to say, ‘I’ve got to hang up. I have to go into a meeting with a brigadier general. You can expect huge orders.’ I wasn’t the only supplier he was calling, It’s split up among many different distributors depending on where you are in the world and who won the contracts to service the military.”

He added, “The next day I got six container loads from my distributor where normally I would get one to two.”

All Round Foods has an extensive non-military business, and Wolther stated, “I deliver to frozen food distributors around the country or in Canada. Companies like IHOP are using some of my products. Donatos Pizza. Colleges and universities like the University of Michigan, NYU and Columbia have used my product.”

“And you have enough space at your warehouse to satisfy the demand?” he was asked.

“Yes, I have to turn over my inventory [fast],” he replied. “So the stuff comes in, I freeze it and hopefully within a week the

[DLA] arranges to pick it up and get it out of here.”

He emphasized, “I have a small business.

But all I know is my business has gone up.

There is a food distributor who services the NATO base in Poland. I wasn’t selling them anything before, but since war broke out, I [now do].”

Wolther started the business in 1994. His father Nelson built the warehouse and surrounding buildings and “I decided in 2007 to buy my father’s building back—he had sold it in 1989 and it changed hands three or four times.

I was doing this business before I bought the building, leasing a third party warehouse. My father’s building was up for sale, so I bought it.”

All Round Foods lies in a formerly zoned industrial area of the village that has been changed to a mixeduse zoning to encourage transit-oriented development. Two apartment buildings are rising on either side of the warehouse.

Wolther appeared before the board of trustees in April to thank the village for allowing him to stay in business and hoping village officials would be sensitive to his need for an uncluttered street in front of his warehouse to facilitate the movement of distribution trucks.

He did not want to explain to the DLA that a food order was late to port because a construction or another illegally parked

“It’s important to me and my company,” he told the assembled. “Yes, I’m in business, but I take [this] very seriously. So I hope you appreciate what we’re doing, and support me, and make sure I can feed the troops who keep us safe,” Wolther admitted to the Illustrated News that he had been a beneficiary of the Ukrainian conflict, and it was “a strange way to make a living.”

“I’ve been a very reliable source for the US military and that’s what they’re most concerned about, getting product,” he concluded.

Feinstein Summer Concert Raises $3.6M To Advance Medical Research

rammy Award-winning and multiplatinum-selling artist Enrique Iglesias recently took center stage at the 17th annual Feinstein Summer Concert, which raised $3.6 million to support medical innovations.

For more than two decades, researchers at Northwell Health’s Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research have made important discoveries in oncology, autoimmunity, neuroscience and genetics that translate into clinical advances and transform the treatment of conditions such as lupus, arthritis, sepsis, cancer, psychiatric illness and Alzheimer’s disease. More than 5,000 researchers and staff collaborate across five institutes in behavioral science, bioelectronic medicine, cancer research, health system science and molecular medicine.

“The extraordinary work being done at the Feinstein Institutes continues to strengthen its reputation as a global leader in medical research,” Northwell President and CEO Michael J. Dowling said. “We are driving the breakthroughs that lead to better, longer, healthier lives.”

Since its inception, the Feinstein Summer Concert series has raised more than $33 million to accelerate lifesaving

The event, held on July 14 at Old Westbury Gardens, helps Northwell continue to pioneer solutions and unearth new discoveries that are impacting the

trajectory of medicine around the world.

“We are grateful for the tremendous support of our benefactors whose generosity fuels the innovations that can improve health for everyone in our communities,”

said Kevin J. Tracey, MD, president and CEO of the Feinstein Institutes and the Karches Family Distinguished Chair in Medical Research.

In his remarks at the concert, Dr. Tracey highlighted the impact that inflammation has on people’s health, noting that the condition surpasses infection as the underlying cause of disease and illness. “What if we cured inflammation? At the Feinstein Institutes, my colleagues and I work every day on that question. Science and research change everything,” he said.

Chris Wragge, co-anchor of CBS New York’s News This Morning and News at Noon, served as the event’s emcee for the sixth year. Catering and event design were coordinated by Larry Scott of Lawrence Scott Events. The Feinstein Institutes thanks its generous donors and its leadership sponsors of this year’s event: Susan and Leonard Feinstein, Donald Zucker and Barbara Hrbek Zucker and Waterfall Asset Management.

Cirque du Soleil Breaks The Ice With Crystal EMMA DUFFY editors@antonmediagroup.com

E

ver since Cirque du Soleil was founded by former street performers Guy Laliberté and Gilles Ste-Croix back in 1984, the troupe has performed on terra firma while bringing its acrobatic exploits to global audiences.

With the new Cirque show Crystal, the Canadian-based entertainment company has put its performers on skates and taken to the ice. It has been in the works for a long time, but was paused due to COVID-19.

The return has been long awaited and those working with Crystal are excited to share what they have in store.

“I started back remotely in the beginning of November while I was still in Australia, so by that time, there had already been quite a lot of pre-planning,” Crystal Artistic Director Rob Tannion said.

Despite all of this planning, there have still been challenges in their path.

Acrobatics requires teamwork that cannot be practiced up to par by a singular individual. During the peak of COVID-19, it was particularly difficult for the team to run practices the way they are used to.

“One of the things we had to sort out is how do we touch each other in a safe space,” Tannion said. “There are 14 artists, a combination of acrobats and skaters on stage that need to have physical contact.”

The show has some fantastic tricks to watch, such as performer Michael Helgren’s favorite, the pendulum poles act. In this act, skaters and acrobats work together to fly along poles. However, there is more to this show than just flips and tricks. This show tells the tale of a woman on her journey of self-discovery. It starts off with immediate drama, grabbing attention right away. In dire situations, a woman is forced to figure out who she truly is.

“If there’s a message from the short story, it’s about really fighting for what you believe in and coming to terms with yourself, facing your shadows, owning your shadows and going on that journey of discovery,” Tannion said.

This is not a typical Cirque du Soleil show, it is more cohesive than those in the past.

Many who have seen the show and been involved in its development also believe that it has become more evolved overall.

After their hiatus, the show is coming back in a fuller and more realized form.

“One thing that’s different and unique about this show is generally Cirque du Soleil shows are a little bit more abstract and it’s maybe a little difficult to follow the storyline,” Helgren said. “This show does a beautiful job of taking you through the

storyline and you really feel like you’re a part of Crystal’s emotions.”

As much fun as they have had working on the show, it is even more exciting for the performers and creator’s to see the audience’s reactions. Their work is done out of passion, but it is also done out of their love for seeing fans pleased with the work they have put on. They see people laugh, cry and cheer at their work and that is what they have been missing during the COVID-19 times.

“Just connecting with the audiences again [is special]. When a performer has a few years off with no audience interaction, it kind of puts you on a low,” Helgren said.

“Being back in front of audiences again, definitely gives you that high you get when you’re on stage.”

Not surprisingly, this show has a distinct international flavor. There are performers representing 17 different nationalities speaking 11 different languages that travel together on a week-in and week-out basis.

Despite all these different groups of people traveling together under one roof, they make one family. After traveling, practicing and performing together, an unbreakable bond has been created.

“Crystal has a really incredible group of people,” Tannion said, “We are almost 100 people and while I know it is like a clique, we are like a giant family.”

Tannion added, “We’ve had good times and bad times within that, but in general, it’s great to be back on that kind of rollercoaster of emotions with these people who share the same passion.”

magine walking through a crowded airport, rushing to catch your flight and there in the middle of the terminal is a radio studio with a guy giving financial advice live. Well you don’t have to imagine anymore. It’s a reality at Long Island MacArthur Airport courtesy of NewsRadio 103.9FM and that guy is Anthony the Money Guy. Veteran Long Island business pundit Anthony Punzone is heard on the station every Monday night at 5 p.m. dishing out the latest information and assistance to small business owners and entrepreneurs alike. A veteran of Wall Street, Punzone left a highly successful career about 20 years ago to branch out on his own.

Having created his flagship brand, VAVAR Global, he glided seamlessly into more business services and telecoms before retiring several years ago.

At the height of the pandemic, Punzone started thinking about coming out of retirement. He saw an opportunity to help people while doing something he loves. Most people were laying low during the COVID-19 crisis but not Punzone. He started up Wall Street Banking Services.

Punzone the right guy to talk about money matters today.

“I decided to open my own firm, specializing in small and medium businesses that need financing,” he explained, “It’s an important niche that needs to be served.”

Punzone points out that small business owners are the backbone of the local and national economy. Main Street always funnels into Wall Street.

As his radio show and business continue to grow in popularity, Punzone remembers his roots. He is always involved in community programs and is looking for guests for his radio show from the local business arena.

“My advice to all business owners is to secure financing when you do not need it so it’s there when you do,” he advised.

Many financial gurus today are quick to predict the death of the small business market. Don’t tell that to Anthony Punzone, who believes in the entrepreneural spirit because he has been living it for the past two decades.

Going forward, he looks to continue to help small business owners prosper and grow, whether it’s on the air, on the web or in his office.

Habits Versus Rituals Focusing on creating rituals, rather than habits, can enhance your partnership.

Dr. John Gottman notes that rituals of connection can bring partners together and strengthen relationships. Psychotherapist Esther Perel shares that while routines may help us get through our days, it is the rituals that help us in life. She distinguishes between routines and rituals and notes that routines are concrete, repetitive actions, such as jogging every morning. Rituals, on the other hand, are like maps that help us navigate situations. These maps can also enhance connection and intimacy. Changing the routine of solo jogging into a couple ritual, may involve partners enjoying nature by going for a hike together. By doing this they are sharing something and building their connection. The difference, Perel notes, is in the details and what they symbolize.

Take for example, Courtney and John, who have been married for

five years. They love each other deeply but have recently begun to feel as if they have fallen out of step. They have extremely busy schedules and have unintentionally pulled away from one another by engaging with their work and other commitments. They share many daily habits, such as getting up at 6 every morning, each exercising for 45 minutes through individualized workout routines, one person starting the coffee while the other showers and then switching. They have

breakfast while scanning the daily news and rush out of the house to begin their day. Sometimes when running behind, they forget to hug or kiss goodbye and even when they do, it’s more mechanical than memorable.

While it would be wonderful for them to take a break, put all their work aside, go on and spend time reconnecting, that simply isn’t realistic. By being thoughtful and making small changes by converting habits into rituals, you can make a large impact on your relationship.

Let’s re-examine their mornings.

• Instead of each exercising for 45 minutes, listening to headphones or taking independent classes, they can opt for a partnered workout, in which they engage with one another.

They can also spend those 45 minutes by going for a walk/jog/ run around their neighborhood, talking and connecting as they go.

• Instead of reading the news while having coffee and eating, they can use that time to talk with one another about what upcoming daily events they are most excited about. They can also use this time to plan other ways to connect once they get home in the evening.

• Instead of rushing out the door, they can pause and intentionally connect with one another by embracing (for at least 20 seconds) or giving one another a meaningful kiss when they exit the door. Adding an expression of gratitude for your partner to your goodbye ritual can make your parting from one another even more meaningful.

No matter what you choose to do to create rituals, discuss your ideas with your partner so that you incorporate things that are meaningful to both of you.

first comes from a remote worker forced back to the office.

“Brutal and mind blowing. I’m back to getting bombarded from people eating fish at their desk and never shutting up. After work, I buy a Mocha Grande, hit the golf course parking lot and hang out.” There you go. Bobby’s golf course hang out prepares him for whatever awaits him at home.

Coffee is a popular companion but, the following show the art form with a different prop. Brian is a stockbroker who takes the train into Manhattan. Even if the ride back is solemn, he needs time after work to balance himself.

“The hell with going out with the brokers after work for a few martinis. I’ll get tortured by them the

next day anyway with how they’re working off the hangover. When I get off the train, I drive to the least crowded parking lot and hang out.

I have one cold, premium dark beer sitting in a cooler ready to go.

I sip that baby slow and my head calms down. No sweat.” Yeah, Bob you better calm down.

My buddy, Joey, is an actor who gave me a nice briefing on how to hang out in nature.

“Hey, hanging out is big with me. Check this out. I landed a role in a mystery movie. The actress, a gorgeous brunette, is practicing lines with me and keeps going off script. Not a big deal but after rehearsal, I needed to hang out.

I headed uptown to the 72nd Street entrance to Central Park

by Strawberry Fields and spotted Chesty King. He boogies over and pulls out a bag of joints. I laugh, hand him a couple of fins, mosey into the park, climb up on a rock and light up. That Central Park hangout makes me a new man.”

No doubt, hanging out soothes the savage beast. In Joey’s case he is alone on a rock. One point is that parking lot situations happen. A few weeks back, I sat eating a salad during an afternoon hang out in a small strip mall. Out of nowhere, the wind kicked up to 40 mph

Adventures In Hanging Out Before I became a remote worker, you may have seen me at a 7-Eleven or Dunkin’ Donuts, sitting in my truck doing nothing.

Let me explain. During my commuter life, after crawling through thick traffic, I’d arrive at the office and be immediately pounced on by the office manager going berserk about me parking too close to his new Range Rover.

Then, like clockwork, somebody in the cafeteria would dump their food on me.

At quitting time, the workplace had left my head buzzing like there’s a jackhammer planted inside. I would drive to a Dunkin’, grab a coffee, find a corner spot, kick back and enjoy the act of just hanging out. All around America, any age group, driving a beat-up pick-up truck or sporting a Ferrari you’ll find hanging out. Once experienced, you’ll understand the popularity. After a brain twisting eight-hour day, why go directly home just to be thrown back into the line of fire: the landscaper tore up your fence or having to fix the toilet that overflowed before you left that morning. My suggestion is before you attempt a Niagara Falls of responsibilities, go hang out.

I’ve talked to friends about their experiences with hanging out. The

gusts. From the far reaches of the lot, a grocery a cart starts rolling toward me picking up speed quickly.

I didn’t have time to put down my fork when it nailed my front grill.

So, keep your eyes moving.

What I’ve noticed lately while hanging out is people splitting time between relaxation and chores. I saw a guy cleaning the rims and waxing his Camaro, while a few spaces down, a woman had a garbage can on the ground shredding documents. No kidding. Finally, I once watched as two guys in a Ford F350 built an entertainment unit and then began to install the electronics. Beautiful thing to watch. I was late getting back to my desk.

Hanging out eases the brutality of the eight-hour day while smoothing the anxiety related to the avalanche of responsibilities awaiting you.

Anyone would agree hanging out is a pleasure like no other. Unless you consider a lobster dinner in a neighbors’ backyard on a warm summer night more appealing.

Can’t We Just Be Happy For ‘Happy?’

In June of this year, the New York Court of Appeals ruled, in a 5-2 decision, that “Happy” the elephant is an elephant after all.

You would think that with all the terrible things happening in New York State, like crime, taxes and government corruption, they wouldn’t waste time listening to a case about whether an elephant may or may not be a human.

Animal rights activists have advocated for animals that can’t speak for themselves for years.

Cages resembling prison cells are a thing of the past. Thanks to the activists, who sometimes get a bad rap, visitors to the zoo can observe most of these animals in a more natural habitat.

Sometimes, animals in their natural habitat can be a little boring. Since they no longer have to run for their lives from predators, they spend a lot of time lying around in the shade. And who can blame them? If you want to see a cheetah sprint across the field and take down its prey, turn on the Discovery Channel.

But what makes “Happy” the elephant any different from “Fred” the lion in the Bronx Zoo? Well, Fred didn’t have the Nonhuman

LONG ISLAND LIVING Paul DiSclafani pdisco23@aol.com

Rights Project in his corner.

Happy, who recently received a mailing from AARP when she turned 50, has called the Bronx Zoo home for the last 45 years.

Although the Bronx Zoo has agreed not to take on any additional elephants for exhibits in the future, it still maintains a home for both Happy and another elephant, Patty. Unfortunately, the two do not get along and live in separate enclosures, divided by a fence.

In early 2020, the Nonhuman Rights Project challenged the zoo’s right to confine Happy, arguing that the situation amounted to “a cruel confinement.” They feel that since Happy is an intelligent being,

they could sue under habeas corpus rights against improper detention. A trial court judge denied their motion. An appellate court then upheld the original ruling.

That set up the hearing for the Court of Appeals in June of 2022.

Although both sides agreed Happy should not just be set loose to roam the streets of Upper Manhattan, the project wanted her moved to a proper sanctuary for elephants.

And that’s where their argument no longer held water.

Chief Judge Janet DiFiore ruled that the relief they request is not from confinement but from one type of confinement to another.

That request proves Happy can’t speak for herself and therefore is non-human. No one could possibly answer the question as to what would be better for Happy. Would she be better off staying in the only environment she has known for the last 45 years, with over an acre of land to roam free in and loving, familiar handlers? Or would she be better off being placed in a new home with more elephants to socialize with?

Where is Dr. Doolittle when you need him?

Judge Rowan Wilson, one of the two dissenting votes, agreed that “an elephant is not a member of the homo sapiens species. At the same time, an elephant is not a desk chair or an earthworm.”

Well, I’m glad we cleared that up.

So where does that leave Happy, now that she has officially been declared non-human and can return to being an elephant again?

Well, at 50 years old, she still has about 20 years of life expectancy.

It sounds to me like she is already in an assisted living facility where they are taking excellent care of her.

Could you imagine the chaos if the court sided with the Nonhuman Rights Project? Louie the Labrador and all other animals would have the right not to be kept in captivity. Where would we be then?

If dogs ever earn the right not to be kept in captivity, who will pick up after them?

Guidance Center’s Innovative Program For Latina Teens July was BIPOC Mental Health Month, which puts the spotlight on the wellbeing of Black, Indigenous and People of Color communities. One of North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center’s signature programs, the Latina Girls Project, was created in response to the alarming rates of depression, school refusal, self-harm, suicidal ideation and attempted suicides by Hispanic teen girls.

More than a decade ago, our team at the Guidance Center noticed an increasingly large number of first-generation Latinas were coming to us with severe depression, self-harming behaviors and suicidal thoughts. Many had stopped attending school and some had been hospitalized for suicide attempts.

The research backed up what we were seeing at the time: Hispanic teenage girls were significantly more likely than their non-Hispanic peers to suffer from depression, thoughts of suicide and suicide attempts. More recent research, from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,

PARENTING PLUS Erika Perez-Tobon

showed that 10.5 percent of Latina adolescents aged 10–24 years in the U.S. attempted suicide in 2016, compared to 7.3 percent of white female, 5.8 percent of Latino and 4.6 percent of white male teens.

In response to this crisis, we formed the Latina Girls Project, an innovative program that employs individual, group and family therapy, along with monthly outings and other activities, all designed to tackle issues such as depression, low self-esteem, social anxiety, school refusal, self-harming behaviors or suicidal ideation.

Some of our clients who were born outside the U.S. have witnessed violence in their homelands and many have experienced complex trauma since a young age. Those who were born in the U.S. are impacted by the generational trauma experienced by their parents and limitations around communicating with their parents.

Regardless of where they were born, a big part of the reason these girls are struggling is because they are pulled in conflicting directions, with their parents wanting them to adhere to the traditional values of their homeland, while the girls seek to integrate into American culture and find acceptance among their peers.

The result: Parents are often extremely overprotective; they won’t allow their daughters to venture out and participate in activities such as sleepovers, dating or trips to the mall. Even if the teens are allowed to go out with their friends, they are required to have a chaperone, such as a parent or brother. In addition, they are often relegated to gender-biased roles, required to cook, clean and take

care of their siblings while their brothers are treated, as one girl said, “like princes.”

During bilingual individual, family and group therapy sessions, the girls realize that they can trust their therapists, many of whom also grew up as first-generation Latinas. The therapists teach the girls healthy strategies to deal with stress and depression and effective ways to communicate with their parents.

For their part, the parents become more compassionate about their daughters’ desire to fit in, and they also understand the need to let their teens separate in age-appropriate ways. One of our Latina clients put it this way: “My parents learned that I just wanted them to be there for me and listen.

They learned that it doesn’t help to question why I feel the way I do but to accept it and support me.”

In addition to therapy, the program incorporates monthly supervised outings to places such as theaters, museums and other cultural and educational sites. These trips, made possible by the generosity of John and

Janet Kornreich, expose the girls to the world in a way that would never have happened if not for this Guidance Center program.

The trips serve to boost the teens’ confidence and sense of independence, and the girls also discover that there’s a great big world of opportunity out there for them, which allows them to feel hopeful about their futures. The trips also offer respite to the parents who are relieved to know that their daughters are in safe hands.

As one girl put it, “The Latina Girls Project helped my mother and I communicate and become very close, and the monthly outings showed me a world I never would have seen. I felt that I wanted to be a part of the larger world. The trips gave me the feeling that I could be truly happy in my life.”

Erika Perez-Tobon, LCSW, who is originally from Venezuela, is the bilingual Clinical Supervisor of North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center’s Latina Girls Project, which is located at the agency’s Westbury location.

According to the New York State

Department of Health, chronic diseases such as asthma, cancer, diabetes, health disease and stroke are the leading causes of disability and death in the United States.

These conditions account for seven of every ten deaths and affect 90 million Americans.

The good news is that these diseases are preventable through a healthy lifestyle, with simple lifestyle choices, such as regular physical activity and a balanced diet.

The Long Island Health Collaborative is a huge proponent of walking for its many physical and mental health benefits, and the activity’s power to prevent and manage chronic disease. Walk with a Doc was started to “encourage physical activity and reduce the effects of a sedentary lifestyle.”

Today, Walk with a Doc is inspiring communities through movement and conversation across the nation and the world.

About the Long Island Health Collaborative The Long Island Health Collaborative is a partnership of Long Island’s hospitals, county health departments, physicians, health providers, community-based social and human service organizations, academic institutions, health plans, local government, and the business sector, all engaged in improving the health of Long Islanders with a focus on the reduction of chronic diseases. The LIHC initiative is overseen by the Nassau-Suffolk Hospital Council, the association that advocates for Long Island’s hospitals.

Helping Kids And Parents Cope

W

hile it’s still high summer, school is just weeks away. Already, many families are starting to feel anxiety about the return to school. The last two and a half years have been chaotic for families, and while the disruption of COVID-19 has lessened, its effects still reverberate for many.

Family and Children’s Association’s (FCA) system of care can help families prepare for the upcoming school year and beyond.

Its family focused approach offers a variety of free and Medicaid-supported programs designed to help prepare children of all ages and their families to cope, and even thrive inside and outside the classroom.

Counseling is available for children of every socio-economic background and for non-English speakers. The FCA team works with the family to assess their needs, present a choice of services that they qualify for and empower the family to decide. In addition to working on an individual child’s goals, the caseworker can also help the family determine additional resources that would benefit them.

COVID-19-related isolation and remote learning have exacerbated mental and behavioral health challenges and increased social anxiety. FCA makes it easier for kids and their families to access services through home visits or in another comfortable environment such as the local library; or even

Last year, FCA helped 333 clients.

There are waitlists for children on Medicaid.

Health Home Care Management and Home and Community Based Services include pre-vocational services, community self-advocacy training supports and planned respite.

Children and Family Treatment and Support Services include in-home therapy, family peer

t

support, community psychiatric support and treatment, and psychosocial rehab.

Telehealth services are also available, but FCA staff have found that in most cases, kids don’t respond as well to virtual meetings.

They are tired of that route and prefer face to face meetings. Ninety to 95 percent of visits

are in person. However, if there is COVID-19 in the house or other issues that preclude at-home visits, telehealth visits prevent a disruption of services.

FCA employs a comprehensive wrap around service approach, bringing all these services in-house to best provide stability

for the child living with you in your home.

Having too many different providers and agencies can cause a chaotic environment that engenders more chaos. Having one case manager eliminates overlap and encourages collaboration among service providers.

Families respond well to this method.

The earlier a family can get services, the better the outcome. FCA’s Children’s Mental Health and Wellness division sees children as young as 6 years old and up to age 21. Kids learn coping skills; parents learn management skills.

FCA’s goal is to keep the child out of the system. FCA helps link children to services that they are eligible to receive and additional resources to maintain a healthy level of coping with a lower level of support.

The average FCA consumer uses these services from 12 to 18 months. Some kids can be in therapy longer if needed. After a course of therapy and counseling, FCA links the family with providers on the outside to help them keep on course.

All FCA services are confidential, and there is never any disclosure of services without parental consent. FCA will work with the child’s school, if requested, with proper parental consent. FCA programs operate throughout Nassau County, and in part of western Suffolk and eastern Queens.

ohn Robinson, a local resident and Hicks Nurseries customer, was recently crowned winner of Jonathan Green’s “Show Us Your Lawn” national competition for the month of June. In addition to a $50 gift card to redeem at the nursery, he now has a chance to win a $500 grand prize.

Jonathan Green is a leading supplier of grass seed, soil enhancers, fertilizers and organic lawn and garden products, all available at Hicks Nurseries in Westbury.

“Hick’s Nurseries staff have always advised me how best to use the Johnathan Green line of products,” Robinson said.

“My lawn went from brown and weeds to a golf course-like thick, dark green grass lawn.”

Robinson said that his wife, Angela, entered their front lawn photo in the Show Us Your Lawn contest by Jonathan Green, Inc. and were surprisingly notified that they won.

“I was so pleased and quickly shared with Hick’s Nurseries, where I will continue to purchase my Johnathan Green lawn products with the gift certificate,” Robinson said.

With the brutal weather we are having on Long Island this summer, everyone wants to know the secret to maintaining a healthy green lawn.

The Robinsons’ front lawn featuring their 1944 Farmall Tractor (far center).

“Seed...weed...feed,” Robinson said. “Use tender loving care and have patience.”

Seems like practical advice.

“Here are the tips that I have been given and pass along to the neighbors,” Robinson said.

1. Start early in March cultivating the soil.

2. Buy Johnathan Green-UP for sodding and seeding.

3. Use the correct Johnathan Green Seed for your lawn—I use ALL SUN in the front and SUN/SHADE in the back.

4. Use Johnathan Green Magical pH soil conditioner to get that dark plush thick green lawn.

5. Maintain watering and keep soil moist as needed.

LONG ISLAND WEEKLY

Keeping the Dialogue Going with Howard Jones DAVE GIL de RUBIO

dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

I

f synthesizers are the engine for Howard Jones’ creative drive, then positivity is the fuel. It has been since Jones broke onto the international music scene with his 1983 hit single “New Song” and has continued to be the case with the current four-piece album concept he’s in the middle of recording and releasing that started with 2015’s Engage. In 2019, Transform was followed by this year’s Dialogue and next year’s Global Citizen set to wrap up this overarching concept. It’s a rather straightforward approach the English musician has been working within over the past seven years.

“Engage was about not just being a bystander—be involved in what’s going on around you and don’t think that you don’t have any effect on the world and your environment because you do,” Jones explained.

“Transform was about if we want to change the world and change things for the better, we have to start with ourselves. We have to work on ourselves and our behavior towards other people and ourselves as well.

And Dialogue is what I just described—the importance of communicating towards each other. The next one, which I will probably start next year is Global Citizen and that’s putting all those three concepts into action and believing that you can have an effect on the world as a global citizen.”

Not unlike the rest of the world, Jones found himself isolated by the pandemic lockdown as he was embarking on the recording of Dialogue. The dark mood of uncertainty that came with this global situation meant lyrics came later, but in the end, Jones was able to surmount the challenges presented with being a oneman band, particularly after contracting a post-vaccination case of COVID-19.

“I couldn’t really work with other people on this, so it was me, my growing synthesizer collection, software and studio,” he recalled. “In a way that makes it quite focused I think. I had plenty of time to experiment, try some new things and get some really great sounds together. I got to spend days on just one sound to make it really special. And having that amount of time was a blessing to really experiment.

I suddenly remembered that I used to do a lot of harmony vocals—layered vocals and big multi-harmonized vocals and I

got back into that idea. And I wanted my voice to sound different every time I used one of those harmonized vocals and I was experimenting. There was one point that I got COVID-19—I was completely vaccinated and everything but when I got it, I sort of lost my full voice. I thought I was going to have to try and do something different, so I sang in a different way more quietly. I got a really different sound and I was really quite excited about that. If you’re doing all your own backing vocals yourself, you need to make yourself sound different to differentiate between the lead and backing vocal. It worked for me.”

And while Jones did all the creative-lifting, he did get a compositional assist from

maybe throughout the rest of my career because we get on very well. For him, it’s about trying to find time because he’s the busiest man in the universe.”

While this string of albums is heavily electronically driven, Jones will be mixing it up during his live shows with the help of touring Robin Boult and Nick Beggs, late of Kajagoogoo.

“It’s an electronic show and we’re going to be debuting a few tracks from the Dialogue album along with a couple of tracks from Transform and one from Engage as well,” he said. “The fans really follow everything I do and I really must look after that as well as playing the hits. That would be really mean not to do that. There is a section in the show where we go acoustic. It’s my guitarist Robin, me and Nick Beggs, who is tour on with me as well from Kajagoogoo Howard Jones fame, who has been a close friend of mine (Photo by for many years, all take part in this acoustic Mikesfox/CC section where I play things like ‘No One Is BY-SA 3.0) to Blame’ and ‘Life In One Day.’ We also do an acoustic version of ‘Too Shy,’ which the audience absolutely loves because Nick is there and he wrote it. He plays that amazing bass solo in it. It’s kind of nice to take it away from the banging electronic tunes and go acoustic and then go back to them. It seems to work as a great dynamic.”

An added bonus is longtime pal Midge Ure (Ultravox) serving as the opening act (“He’s an absolute total legend and a really good friend of mine. I feel very fortunate.”)

Looking to the remainder of this year and into 2023, Jones and his fan base have plenty to look forward to between Global Citizen completing his four-album musical concept along with a concert album (Live at Union Chapel) and a collection of non-synthesizer-based material that he’d been working on for a number of years (Piano Composed). And while he’s understandably excited about this burst of creativity that’s BT (aka Brian Transeau), the American going to take him into the next year, Howard musician/DJ/electronic music pioneer, Jones has always clung to the philosophy of who became a close friend of Jones after gratitude driving him forward and refusing the latter came out to see him head up an to get caught up in the highs and lows of the ambitious orchestral project in Miami back music industry and life in general. in 2015. It’s a connection Jones has come to “I think it’s very important to be happy treasure. with your work and one of the best ways to “On the new album, we did two or three be happy is to really appreciate the situation tracks and BT was great,” Jones said. “For you find yourself in, even if it’s difficult or those two tracks—‘Celebrated Together’ you’re having problems or whether you’re and ‘Be the Hero’—he’d sent me some seed soaring because it’s going well,” he said. ideas for tracks quite a long time ago. I used “Just really appreciate things because if it’s a bit of that in the writing of them and I’m not going well, then you can learn a ton of really hoping that we may get a remix from stuff from that to make it better. If things are him based on one of those songs.

Fourth Stop: Washington State JENNIFER CORR

y friend and I left Montana a day early because we were worried about the lack of transportation.

We had met a nice lady from Texas who had told us she sold her house and most of her belongings after retiring so that she could travel the country. She was nice enough to give us a ride to the Amtrak station, as well as bring us to Glacier National Park beforehand so that we could enjoy our last day.

We arrived in Spokane, WA, in the middle of the night and settled into an Airbnb we booked for the night, which was very comfy.

But once we woke up we had to move ourselves into the other Airbnb we had booked.

Luckily, the host allowed us to keep our bags there before check-in so that we could go and do laundry. While doing laundry at a nearby laundromat, we wandered into this cat café next door and asked the barista what she suggested doing in the area. She told us simply that the Pacific Northwest loves coffee. And we could see that was very true. There were small coffee drive-thrus everywhere. I wondered to myself, “Who loves coffee more? New York or the Pacific Northwest?”

The bus system in Spokane was incredible. It was extremely reliable for us to get around and it came exactly on time. The community was also clearly proud of their bus system, as they had murals for it inside the bus station. We saw beautiful waterfalls in the Riverfront Park, which took us almost all afternoon to explore. The following day we explored all the gardens in the area.

After Spokane, we had an Amtrak connecting bus to Seattle. We got to Seattle right at check-in into our hotel/Airbnb (a hotel had listed its rooms as Airbnb). We hiked up this incline from the station to the hotel, which was about a nine-minute walk.

And by the time we got there, we were totally out of breath. Opening the door, there were another two flights of stairs. I tried to see if there was an elevator we could use to bring up our luggage, but the owner of the hotel reminded us that it was built in 1910.

The Panama Hotel, the owner told us, was popular among young Japanese professionals until they were forced into internment camps during World War Two. Many of the guests had left behind their belongings when they were captured and many of those belongings went unclaimed for decades.

Today, those belongings can be seen in the basement of the hotel.

Unfortunately, we did not really get to

Minneapolis

Olympic National Park was absolutely breathtaking.

While getting this picture made us late to return our rental car, it was absolutely worth seeing the Pacific Ocean for the first time.

A waterfall in Riverfront Park. We went on the gondola over the falls. When we got closer to the falls, we saw a bunch of salmon hopping at the bottom of the falls. We read that they do that because they become trapped in the rocks.

explore the hotel because the next day we would be taking a road trip to Olympic National Park.

We picked up our rental car through an app called Toro, which allows people to rent out their personal cars at usually a much lower price than traditional car rentals. And then we headed to Olympic National Park. It was a nice drive to a very beautiful park. We saw mountains in the distance with snow peaks and valleys of hills with evergreen trees. We also saw a creek of bright blue water and a waterfall that fed it. Navigating the park, at times, was a bit frightening because some of the roads sat right next to a cliff and there were no guardrails. I practically held my breath going at about 25 miles per hour as I drove down the mountain.

We took a detour to Forks, WA, where the Twilight series takes place. It was cool being there and we got a really good pasta alfredo with smoked salmon there. But then my friend and I debated whether or not we should go see the sea stacks, as it was about 6:30 p.m. and we had to get the car back by 11:30 p.m. with a four-hour car ride in-between.

We ended up doing it, spending five minutes on the beautiful beach. But we’d learn that while the beach was beautiful, it would cost us. We were supposed to get back to Seattle by 11 p.m. according to the GPS, but that’s if you’re going the speed limit. It’s hard to go the speed limit when you’re driving on dark, windy and narrow country roads while cars with their brights on come barreling towards you. That moment made me realize I was glad we took the train instead of driving because these roads are not like the roads on Long Island. But lo and behold we made it back, only 10 minutes late.

The car lender was pretty nice about it.

And it worked out, as it has been for us. That’s what this trip has taught us. As long as we try and we’re creative, it just seems to work out.

This is part four of a series on traveling the country via Amtrak.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The space between a private and public self is personal. You decide what you want people to know. This week, you’ll take some license and have fun with this, using it as an opportunity for creativity and empowerment. You’ll draw lucky people and situations to you as you thrive on every front.

Solution: 13 Letters

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Practice radical self-acceptance and watch how your energy frees up and you become more capable and powerful in your daily life.

Think of yourself as completely ready and ideally suited to the challenges of the week. Nothing about you requires improvement. All efforts are optional and for your own delight.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). How you see the other person is a direct reflection of how you see yourself. This will be true when you experience someone as the hero and just as true when they’re the villain. With a curious mind and in the spirit of nonjudgment, you’ll find insight in the fascinating way your nuanced opinions reflect your psyche.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It is said that the world is a picture of what you want it to be, but had you painted this view with your own brush, you certainly would have left out certain things and added others. You’re even more creative than usual this week and will figure out a way to realize certain additions and subtractions to your scene.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ve learned not to prize the correctness, which is among the most boring virtues. The mature person doesn’t need to be right all the time. Success and creativity require a tolerance for mistakes. Your big strength this week is a willingness to face inaccuracies, thus honing better methods and higher truths.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ve demanded more of your performance than is reasonable or kind. What’s really needed is more practice. How can you arrange this? What would it take to repeat the action until it’s second nature?

Relaxation is key here, too. When you feel yourself tighten up, take a breath and try another way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). What stands between you and what you want may seem like a lot -- people, rules, power structures, physical barriers, detritus -and yet when you move forward, you’ll find your energy disperses in such a way as to flow softly past all obstacles. True to your water sign nature, you will find the path of least resistance.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). To accept the good with the bad becomes much easier when you understand that you cannot possibly know which is which.

Whatever your philosophy may be these days, the action that will fall right in line with it is to open to acceptance. These are the right events for this time; believe it.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

You’re on a quest for beauty, and you’ll find much of it this solar return, though even when complexity and trouble show up instead, you’ll deem this journey utterly worthwhile. Following a passion, you’ll hone your skills. You’ll add members to your team who not only fulfill a job but make you laugh, too. Rearranging your environment and schedule is important work, too. As you make yourself more comfortable, you provide a sense of belonging to others. You’ll grow in compassion.

Good card-reading is an art unto itself. Declarer does not actually see the defenders’ hands as each card is played, but many times he can visualize their holdings just as if they were in open view.

Take this case where South was not alert to a situation he could have deduced without much effort.

He ducked the spade lead, East winning with the queen and returning a spade to dummy’s ace.

Declarer could count eight sure tricks and saw that the ninth would have to come from a successful finesse in diamonds. So he led the ten of diamonds at trick two and

let it ride. West won with the king and cashed his spades, and South went down one.

The simple fact is that declarer’s focus at the start of play as to where his ninth trick might come from was basically misplaced.

Instead, he should have expended more energy on determining the meaning of West’s opening lead.

West’s five-of-spades lead was highly revealing. It was inconceivable that he would have led the five from a holding of, say, the K-Q-J5-4, in which case he would have led the king. Declarer could therefore assume that East had the king, queen or jack, which in turn meant that the ace was the right play from dummy at trick one.

Observe what happens in the actual case if declarer takes the first spade with the ace. Whatever East plays on the trick, the defenders cannot cash four spade tricks after declarer takes a losing diamond finesse at trick two. If West leads a spade to East’s queen, East has no spade to return, while if West cashes the K-J of spades, South’s ten becomes a stopper.

If it turns out that East’s original holding is three spades headed by an honor, which is certainly possible, there’s still nothing to fear. In that case, West started with only four spades, so the defenders cannot score five tricks.

Tomorrow: Deceptive defensive play.

Legislator Drucker Celebrates Unveiling Of Harry Chapin Legacy Walkway At Long Island Cares Headquarters

N

assau County Legislator Arnold W. Drucker (D - Plainview) joined members of the Chapin family, anti-hunger advocates and government colleagues to celebrate the dedication of the Harry Chapin Legacy Walkway and unveiling of a bronze bust of the legendary musician and philanthropist outside Long Island Cares’ Hauppauge headquarters on Friday, July 15.

The ceremony was held just one day before the launch of Legislator Drucker’s monthlong food drive, which began on Saturday, July 16, in honor of Harry Chapin Day. Residents are encouraged to donate unopened, non-perishable food items at participating community drop-off locations listed below.

Donations for Baxter’s Pet Pantry will also be accepted in support of their mission to ensure that every family member has access to the nutritious food that they need.

“One of Harry Chapin’s quotes that always resonated with me is: “To know is to care, to care is to act and to act is to make a difference,” Drucker said. “It was especially heartening to be in the company of so many individuals who share our commitment to Harry’s lifelong mission—eradicating hunger and ending food insecurity on Long Island.”

plan specifically designed to target the areas of the body most affected by pregnancy and childbirth. Combining a tummy tuck, liposuction, breast lift or breast augmentation, fat transfer or cellulite reduction treatment significantly transforms your look.

Another avenue to consider is the new noninvasive body sculpting treatment, Emsculpt which reduces fat and increases muscle mass in the abdomen and buttocks within 2 weeks without spending hours in the gym. Coolsculpting reduces fat in the treated area by 25%, without surgery! Combine these two for a fit and toned silhouette this summer! For a quick refresh this Summer, injectable fillers are effective in reducing lines and wrinkles on the face without surgery.

Exciting products like Botox, Dysport and Xeomin and the New Jeuveau smooth crow’s feet and frown lines while Juvederm and Restylane restore facial contour and volume resulting in a lifted look.

For over 25 years, Greenberg Cosmetic Surgery has been providing the proper mix of these procedures to provide the most successful improvements in appearance with a significant reduction in the signs of aging. Using the most state-of-the-art technology to obtain the best and most natural results, you can turn back the hands of time in a caring, safe and supportive environment.

STEPHEN T. GREENBERG, M.D., F.A.C.S. DOMINATES NY PLASTIC SURGERY

Several recent enhancements in technology have made cosmetic plastic surgery procedures safer and easier for the patient with a more natural outcome.

Implementing a healthy plan including diet and exercise will help to achieve both a beautiful and realistic result. There are a variety of procedures available today to help you achieve the look that you desire, including breast augmentation, breast lift, breast reduction, liposuction, tummy tuck, fat transfer, cellulite reduction, full body lift, facelift and eyelid lift. Combining surgical with non-surgical procedures can produce amazing and significant improvements to your appearance.

Utilizing the latest technology, Greenberg Cosmetic Surgery offers rapid recovery breast augmentation and liposuction packages where you can be back to your daily routine in 24-48 hours.

Patients experience minimal swelling and bruising with a notably decreased recovery time. Recognizing the need for patients to quickly return to their normal activities, a Greenberg Rapid Recovery Procedure ensures both excellent results with a faster recovery period. In addition, there is a continued increase in the number of women having children at a later age who are seeking to obtain pre-pregnancy figure.

Manorhaven Boulevard Project Nearing Completion

N

assau County Legislator Delia DeRiggi-Whitton (D-Glen Cove) met with Manorhaven Village’s new Mayor John Popeleski, Deputy Mayor Vincent Costa and project managers on Thursday, July 7 to discuss progress on the $6 million Manorhaven Boulevard and the timeline for remaining work.

The sidewalks, curbs, handicap ramps, brick-stamped concrete, plazas, and nostalgic lampposts have already been installed, and milling, other roadwork preparation, and paving is scheduled to take place in July. Final touches such as benches, bus shelters, plantings and trash receptacles are set for installation in August, and the overall project is scheduled for completion by early September.

“I am delighted by the progress that we are witnessing as Manorhaven Boulevard’s transformation nears completion,” Legislator DeRiggi-Whitton said. “I am confident that residents, pedestrians and business owners will agree that our investment in Manorhaven’s future was well worth the patience they demonstrated during construction.”

Feel free to contact Legislator DeRiggi-Whitton about this project or any other topic at 516-571-6211 or dderiggiwhitton@ nassaucountyny.gov.

Jericho Middle School Recognized As A Common Sense School

ommon Sense, the national nonprofit organization dedicated to helping kids and families thrive in a world of media and technology, has recognized Jericho Middle School as a Common Sense School.

Jericho Middle School has demonstrated its commitment to taking a whole-community approach to preparing its students to think critically and use technology responsibly to learn, create, and participate while preparing them for the perils that exist in the online realm, such as plagiarism, loss of privacy, and cyberbullying. With the right support, kids can take ownership of their digital lives, engage with real issues and change their communities for the better.

The recognition acknowledges our school’s commitment to creating a culture of digital citizenship.

“We applaud the faculty and staff of Jericho Middle School for embracing digital citizenship as an important part of their students’ education,” said Kelly Mendoza, vice president of education programs at Common Sense Education. “Jericho Middle School deserves high praise for giving its students the foundational skills

they need to compete and succeed in the 21st-century workplace and participate ethically in society at large.”

Jericho Middle School has been using Common Sense Education’s innovative and research-based digital citizenship resources, which were created in collaboration with researchers from Project Zero, led by Howard Gardner at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, and are grounded in the real issues students and teachers face.

The resources teach students, educators, and parents tangible skills related to Internet safety, protecting online reputations and personal privacy, media balance, managing online relationships and media literacy.

Jericho Middle School principal Chad Gleason explained “An increasing portion of our lives takes place in a digital environment. It is critical that we equip students with the tools they need for safe, happy and productive participation in the digital world. We are so proud of the work that our students and teachers have done to earn this recognition.”
