An Election Like No Other

o one, it seems, can attract and repel so many voters as President Donald J. Trump. It is a truism of politics that presidential elections always increase the turnout at the polls. This has consequences for what are called down ballot races. Both Nassau County Democratic Committee Chairman Jay Jacobs and his GOP counterpart, Joseph Cairo, agree that Nov. 3, Election Day, will be one for the record books. “I think it’s going to be up,” Jacobs, who also is the state chair, said of turnout. “We had something like 7.7 Democrats gathered at the Crest Hollow in Woodbury to raise funds and million people vote last [presidential spirits two years ago.

Glen Cove IDA Approves Garvies Point’s Newest Application

GLEN COVE

BY JOSEPH WOLKIN

jwolkin@antonmediagroup.com

he Glen Cove Industrial Development Agency (IDA) just held a virtual meeting to vote on updated plans for the development of Garvies Point. The board approved the newest application, with a unanimous vote, which is being overseen by developer RXR. The updated application will have more waterfront views for Garvies Point condo units, including a total of 346 condos, an increase from the original 2016 proposal of 172 units in blocks E and F and 56 workforce condos in Block F. The original proposal also had a market-range rental building in Block E that would have 101 units. Block D originally would have a 50,000-square-foot office building with parking. Resolution 4A for a sales tax extention was approved with all board members voting in favor. Glen Cove Mayor and IDA Chairman Tim Tenke said he appreciated the community’s ongoing input in the development project. The updated proposal will have a part of the open space relocated to take advantage of the waterfront view. There will be a restaurant at the ground level, outdoor seating and a wellness center with a spa, open to the public. As previously reported, the construction will be split into three phases, A1: 136 units/10 stories; A2: 75 units/eight stories; and A3: 135 units/nine stories. RXR’s Joseph Graziose, who is the executive vice president of residential development, addressed the project’s success. “We have completed the entire roadway in connection with the city,” he said before detailing the aforementioned construction that’s been completed. “RXR remains committed in completing its vision of the Garvies Point project. We’ve been successful in bringing new people to Glen Cove.” As of now, Harbor Landing North boasts 177 units with construction completed. Harbor Landing South will have people moving in this month within the 208-unit building. The Beacon has sold about 45 percent of 167 condo units. Questions were raised during the IDA meeting about the upcoming

construction schedule, as well as affordable housing within the buildings. There will be 71 affordable housing units available and seven or eight extra ones for the workforce units. Due to COVID-19, 108 days of construction were lost. But the full schedule will be available soon, RXR explained. Another question about the restaurant being built came up, requesting information about its location near the water. Graziose explained it’s the

perfect place given the waterfront property, as well as the capability to have outdoor dining. “The other thing this gives you by bringing the operation of the restaurant into the actual building is, when the building A’s all three phases is done, that restaurant will be an operation for the building of 346 units,” Graziose said. “Residents, in my experience, where you have the walkability inside their own building

to go to a breakfast and lunch type venue, offers a restaurant operator a much better revenue.” Additionally, there will be free parking on the property, but discussions will be ongoing about overnight parking. More than 160 spaces will be added to lots D and E near the ferry. Do you have a story you want to tell? Share it with me at jwolkin@antonmediagroup.com

Jim Gaughran Secures Two Major Grants

For Sea Cliff Village Library and Glen Cove BY JOSEPH WOLKIN

jwolkin@antonmediagroup.com

New York State Senator Jim Gaughran just secured a pair of grants that will support two key areas in the Town of Oyster Bay. The senator, who is in his second year in office, secured a $250,000 grant for the City of Glen Cove, as well as $50,000 for the Sea Cliff Village Library. “We send so much money as taxpayers to Albany in income tax and sales tax, and it’s my job to get that money back to get our fair share,” Gaughran said in an interview with Anton Media Group. “They need to go to projects that local governments have for their citizens.” The grant designated for the City of Glen Cove will assist in the repair of the Morgan Memorial Park Seawall, which is the last line of defense to protect the city from coastal erosion and storm flooding. Ever since Superstorm Sandy, the seawall has been deteriorating. “I went out with Mayor [Tim] Tenke, Legislator [Delia] DeRiggiWhitton and other officials to this historical seawall that, if it’s not repaired quickly, could be lost forever,” Gaughran said. “That’s vitally important to the beautiful wall at a beautiful park. If the wall continues to deteriorate or come down, you’re going to lose a lot of

beachfront and the wall is there to hold up a hill with trees and vegetation behind it.” Tenke, who is the mayor of the City of Glen Cove, in a statement to Anton Media Group, explained that he is grateful for the $50,000 grant. “Morgan Park is a treasure here in Glen Cove,” Tenke said. “Being that part of the park is along the waterfront, it does incur damage from heavy storms. We are grateful to Senator Jim Gaughran for securing us a grant, which will be used to repair the Morgan Park Seawall. Senator Gaughran has proven to be a true supporter of the residents of Glen Cove, not just through his words, but his actions. This park is utilized by many people, and being

able to restore the Seawall will ensure many more years of enjoyment by the public.” Residents from Glen Cove and Locust Valley often utilize Morgan Memorial Park for different activities, and the wall is meant to prevent flooding during hurricanes. Prior to the pandemic, libraries across the island were struggling with funding. The $50,000 grant for the Sea Cliff Village Library will go to installing and furnishing a space specifically meant for teenagers. The space will be considered a safe haven for students who are stuck at home as part of remote learning initiatives. “Libraries have transformed to be community centers,” Gaughran said.

JERICHO

Development Of Jericho Shelter Halted BY CODY SULLIVAN

editorial@antonmediagroup.com

Nassau County judge has temporarily halted plans for a homeless shelter at the former site of the Hampton Inn on Jericho Turnpike in Jericho that drew protests from local residents. The Sept. 22 preliminary injunction, granted by Nassau County Supreme Court Justice Arthur Diamond, cited the developer’s failure to obtain permits and violations of zoning laws. The plan was to house around 80 homeless families in the former hotel until more permanent housing arrangements could be made. Current town zoning restrictions allow temporary stays of just 30 days, and critics say it could potentially house the families for months. The Town of Oyster Bay issued a stop-work order against the contractor in August, and later filed a temporary restraining order, which Justice Diamond issued. Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino said the town “will continue to enforce our zoning laws to protect our suburban quality of life. In doing so, we are representing and protecting our residents and neighborhoods.” The injunction follows a series of protests against the project organized by the group Concerned Jericho Parents. Protesters said the money for the

The protesters gathered outside of the Theodore Roosevelt Legislative Building in Mineola on Monday, Sept. 21. (Photo by Cody Sullivan) project should instead be used to find a more permanent solution for the homeless families and claim the project went ahead without public notice. Event organizer Jennifer Vartanov said her group wants to ask Nassau County Executive Laura Curran “to come forward and answer the many questions we have regarding the installation of the first mega-shelter in Nassau County.” Community Housing Innovation (CHI), the nonprofit that would be managing the proposed center, operates 30 similar facilities across Long Island. The

executive director of CHI, Alexander H. Roberts, said in a statement, “Because most of our residents are children, we place a high value on safety and security. The [center] will have 24/7 security with 100 cameras connected to DVRs. Our resident support specialists will [ensure] that no drugs or other contraband pose a threat. The measures we take are welcomed by the overwhelming majority of families, who want a safe, nurturing environment to focus on getting back on their feet and into permanent housing.” Speakers at the protest raised questions about the risk of COVID-19 transmission in the facility. “Eighty-plus families living in close quarters in a hotel, and then having those children coming from the hotel to our schools is certainly a concern,” said event organizer Marc Albert. They also raised concerns about the proposed shelter’s proximity to a local elementary school and busy intersection, and the burden that more children might place on their school district. The nonprofit says the shelter in Jericho would only house families with children and the majority of those children wish to stay in their current school district. It would provide families with three meals a day as well as transportation to jobs and appointments, according to the organization. —Cody Sullivan is a contributing writer

Saltzman East Memorial Third Graders Receive Recess Backpacks

FARMINGDALE

BY MARIA ORTOLANI

farmingdale@antonmediagroup.com

ith schools opening once again with many new procedures, Our Lady of Mercy High School student Madeline Gross, who is also the daughter of a Farmingdale School District third-grade teacher, initiated a community-minded project to help her mother’s class at Saltzman East Memorial enjoy their recess time while keeping socially distant and safe. Gross brought her idea to her grandmother, Ann Lomonte, a member of the Women’s Club of Farmingdale (WCF). In no time at all, club members filled mesh backpacks with chalk, yo-yos, bubbles and single-use jump ropes that can be used individually by the students. In all, 82 backpacks were donated, enough for each third-grade student. Hats off to “Maddie” for seeing a community need and finding a way to make it happen. It’s obviously a family trait as Gross’ grandmother, Ann Lomonte, volunteered to help WCF President Tina Diamond participate in a GFWC (General Federation of Women’s Clubs) International Project—collecting empty pill bottles, with labels removed, to donate to medical facilities in disadvantaged areas world-wide. So far, more than 270 pill bottles have been collected.

Just before the start of school, the WCF Welfare Committee, chaired by Rosemary Emigholz, usually collects member-donated backpacks filled with school supplies to be provided to St. Kilian’s Outreach. For COVID-19 reasons, this year’s

Outreach asked for gift cards to Target and Walmart. More than $500 in gift cards was donated and will be used by Farmingdale High School qualifying students for their school supply needs. And in July, club members donated 50 bags of nonperishable food items to supplement Outreach’s dwindling summer reserves. In March, in honor of Dr. Seuss’ birthday, club members donated 37 Dr. Seuss books for pre-school children in need. Then WCF co-presidents Cheryl Parisi and Lorraine Stanton were finally able to deliver the books to the Eastern Nassau Head Start Program (operated by the Economic Opportunity Commission of Nassau County, Inc.) located at St. Francis de Chantal in Wantagh. This is one of eight locations on Long Island. The Head Start Early Childhood Development Program offers a variety of services to preschoolers three to five years old and their families. They provide children with a place to learn through play. Trained personnel supervise the classes of 16 to 17 children. The program consists of activities in art, language, math and science in a friendly, warm atmosphere. Nutrition, health, social services and psychological/speech therapy services are provided.

Hicksville Gregory Museum Upgrades HVAC System

BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

o-founded by Gardiner E. Gregory (a longtime Hicksville High School teacher) and his late wife Anne Church Gregory, the Gregory Museum has been located at the Heitz Place Courthouse since it was moved there in 1973 from where it was originally founded at the Gregorys’ Cottage Boulevard home in 1963. While the institution’s namesake passed away in 2005, it has continued serving the community as an earth science center. With Governor Andrew Cuomo’s New York State on PAUSE order in effect, nonessential businesses like museums were required to remain closed up until the end of August. The Gregory Museum postponed all tours and activities as a means of complying with the order as a means of helping the community help decrease the spread of the virus. With COVID-19 being an airborne virus, upgrading the building’s ventilation became a major priority. Legislators Rose Marie Walker and Laura Schaefer came to the rescue by approaching the Nassau County Legislature to request Community Revitalization Project (CRP) funding for an InterMunicipal Agreement (IMA) with the Town of Oyster Bay, to purchase, upgrade and install an

Walker was unequivocal in stating the importance of this upgrade for both public safety and historical preservation purposes. Walker said. “This new heating, ventilation and air-conditioning system will allow for more than just public use of the museum, but also will help in preserving the one-of-a-kind history the Gregory museum contains. Historic artifacts and documents

need a climate-controlled environment to maintain integrity and this CRP funding provides that.” Schaefer’s efforts helped fund two other projects besides the Gregory Museum HVAC upgrade. The Westbury Fire District will be receiving portable data terminals through a CRP grant. These terminals will be installed in each response vehicle in the care of the fire department. They will allow for full computer-aided dispatch information while responding to alarms. This advancement in technology will be of great benefit to coordination and response time for emergencies. The final project allows the Garden City Fire Department to purchase portable radios for use during their emergency calls. These radios, replacing out-of-date equipment, will allow the department to coordinate and respond to fire and emergency calls and provide the best service. “The residents in the 14th Legislative District are benefiting from these CRP funds, as their fire departments and museums will be updated and quality of life will be maintained,” Schaefer said. “I am happy to provide the means possible for these services, and look forward to seeing the funding go to good use.” Visit www.gregorymuseum.org to find out more about the Gregory Museum.

Williston Park Resident And NYPD Officer Accused Of Being Chinese Spy

WILLISTON PARK

BY ANTHONY MURRAY

amurray@antonmediagroup.com

n documents from the U.S. Department of Justice, Williston Park resident and New York City Police officer Baimadajie Angwang was arrested and charged on Sept. 21 with acting as an illegal agent of the People’s Republic of China. In the criminal complaint, it states that between May of 2018 to present day, both dates being approximate and inclusive, Angwang knowingly acted in the United States as an agent of a foreign government without prior notification to the attorney general of the United States, as required by law. Angwang is being charged with committing wire fraud, making false statements and obstructing an official proceeding. Angwang, 33, is a Tibetan native of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and is a naturalized U.S. citizen who initially traveled to the United States on a cultural exchange visa. According to court documents, Angwang overstayed a second visa and eventually sought asylum in the United States on the basis that he had allegedly been arrested and tortured in the PRC due partly to this Tibetan ethnicity. As a police officer, Angwang was assigned to the 111th Precinct in Bayside where he served as a patrol officer and member of the precinct’s crime prevention team. He is currently assigned to the community affairs unit where his duties include serving as a liaison between the NYPD and the community served by the 111th Precinct. Angwang is also employed by the U.S. Army Reserve (USAR) where he currently holds the rank of staff sergeant and is stationed at Fort Dix, NJ. The court documents allege that since approximately 2018 to present, Angwang maintained a relationship with at least two PRC officials stationed at the Consulate in New York. One of the officials is believed to have been assigned to the China Association for Preservation and Development of Tibetan Culture—a division of the PRC’s United Front Work Department (UFWD). The department is responsible for, among other things, neutralizing sources of potential opposition to the policies and authority of the PRC. The investigation has revealed that Angwang, while acting at the direction and control of PRC officials reported on the activities of ethnic

Tibetans and others in the New York York City community and defend metropolitan area to the Consulate, the Constitution against all enemies spotted and assessed potential ethnic by reporting to PRC government Tibetan intelligence sources in the officials about the activities of New York metropolitan area Chinese citizens in the New and beyond, and used York area and developing his official position in intelligence sources the NYPD to provide within the Tibetan Consulate officials in the As alleged in this federal community access to senior United States,” complaint, Baimadajie NYPD officials acting United Angwang violated through invitations States Attorney every oath he took in to official NYPD DuCharme said in this country. events.

One to the United States, another to the U.S. Army, and a third to this police department,” Shea said. “From the earliest stages of this investigation, the NYPD’s Intelligence and Internal Affairs bureaus worked closely with the FBI’s Counterintelligence Division to make sure this individual would be brought to justice.” If convicted, Angwang faces a maximum sentence of 55 years’ imprisonment.

At the Sept. 17 board of trustee meeting, board members mentioned their frustration about being given no notification until the very last minute. “The project overall continues to move forward and everything is slightly ahead of schedule right now,” trustee Rainer Burger said. “New Hyde Park Road was opened as you all know on August 24. I do want to extend my apologies to our residents as well as the rest of the community for the lack of notification. Unfortunately for myself, the mayor and the board, as well as the rest of the village hall, we were not aware of the opening until a half hour prior to reopening.

Justice Court Cleared To Reopen Westbury Village Justice Thomas J. Liotti announced that the court will open on Wednesday, Sept. 30 for in-person proceedings. Except for administrative functions, it had been shut down by Governor Andrew Cuomo since March, as with all municipal courts. Justice Robert Bogle, the administrative judge for all village courts in Nassau County, visited the court and approved it for reopening, making it one of the first in New York State to get such approval. The court has taken all steps necessary to insure the safety of court personnel and all those who come before it by installing glass shields, observing social distancing and providing forms with the usual standard questions to be completed. Everyone’s temperature will be taken and sanitizers will be available. No one will be admitted without a mask. The court will schedule additional court dates until its docket is cleared of any backlog. “In Westbury, justice is our first priority. We are taking all necessary

steps to insure the speedy trial and due process rights of all,” Liotti stated. “I am very grateful to Judge Bogle, Mayor [Peter] Cavallaro, Village Attorney Anna Vikse and our staff, headed by Court Clerk Rita Geraldi, all of whom have worked extra hard to bring about the opening.” Liotti added, “I am inviting Governor Cuomo and our County Executive Laura Curran to our court so they can see what we have done to stop the spread of the virus. By using Westbury as an example, other courts may also be approved for reopening. We’re not doing Skype and Zoom, we’re doing the real thing, in person. Our federal and state constitutions require us to provide speedy, public trials to preserve the right of confrontation. We take an oath to uphold, protect and defend the constitutions, which we in Westbury intend to do.” Liotti noted that the annual Constitution Day program that he hosts in September has been canceled, “but we’ll catch up next year.” —Submitted by the Village of Westbury Justice Court

GREAT NECK

Great Neck Plaza BZA Hears Maple Drive Application BY MICHAEL SCRO

editorial@antonmediagroup.com

he Village of Great Neck Plaza Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) recently unanimously voted to adopt a drafted decision by the BZA regarding an application for a multistory mixed-use building at 16 Maple Dr., Great Neck Plaza. This was after a discussion related to off-site parking spaces and an amendment made to remove a sentence addressing affordable housing units. The virtual Zoom meeting was held on Wednesday, Sept. 23. The application is being made by 87 Middle Neck Rd. LLC. Attending the BZA meeting was Jeffrey Wilks, principal and representative of the applicant, and its Garden City-based attorney Christopher Prior. Village of Great Neck Plaza Attorney Richard Gabriele said the BZA had previously voted to grant requested variances for the application with certain conditions, and that he was directed to draft a fact-finding document. According to the proposed BZA decision posted on the village’s website, the property consists of approximately 0.167 acres and it is currently occupied by a commercial building having primarily one level at grade. It formerly contained several small retail uses. It is now vacant except for one tenant, and is in a state of disrepair. The applicant is proposing to demolish the existing structure on the property and construct a five-story mixed-use building having 2,936 square feet of retail space on the ground floor, and four residential floors above the ground floor, containing 13 residential units— two which would be affordable housing units. The application was first made in late 2018, and was denied by the Village Commissioner of Public Services on the grounds that it required numerous variances from code. The applicant then subsequently applied to the BZA for the variances in March 2019, revising its initial application, and it was again denied by the Village Building Department. These variances included height limitation, parking extending beyond the site footprint, and the number of off-street parking space requirements. The Village Board of Trustees served

as lead agency for the project’s review under the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA), and the board issued a conditional use permit and site plan approval on June 3. However, these did not eliminate the need for the variances. At the Sept. 23 BZA meeting, Gabriele said he provided a copy of the proposed decision to BZA members as well as the applicant’s attorney. He said they received very few comments in response, however there was some concern that the necessity of obtaining four off-site parking spaces for the applicant to obtain a Certificate of Final Occupancy (CFO) was not clear enough. As stated in the BZA decision, the applicant must provide at least one space for each non-commercial unit in the proposed building. There are nine on-site parking spaces at the proposed building’s underground parking garage, and since there are thirteen non-commercial units in the building, the applicant must arrange for at least four parking spaces off-site for the use of non-commercial tenants. Prior then reported that since the previous BZA meeting, his client is having difficulty finalizing an

agreement with nearby Bond Parc Condominiums. BZA Chairman Michael DeLuccia praised the project, saying, “we all agree this is going to be a nice addition to the village.” But he added that the four off-site parking spaces are “a rather large compromise that we made, and this decision was made to put the onus on the applicant to get it done.” Wilks explained his concern that he’s not certain of the logistics and costs with the four off-site spaces between the village and Bond Parc before signing an agreement and moving forward. However, he said this project is a group effort and he wants to work alongside everyone involved. Gabriele said that if the applicant is unable to make a deal with Bond Parc for parking spaces, and he presents those facts to the village, he can try to work out a deal with the village. On the two affordable housing units in the proposed building, Prior said his applicant would prefer to not have language in the agreement that expressly addresses workforce housing in a particular context. Gabriele said the village has affordable housing in three of its districts,

and said it would create an issue if the off-site parking spaces were automatically given to the affordable housing units, and on-site spaces were given to other tenants. At the end of the meeting, the BZA decided to remove one sentence regarding the affordable housing units because, among other reasons, the Board of Trustees addressed issues relating to the affordable housing units in its conditional use permit. BZA members Eileen Falk, Richard Shapiro and David Kirschenbaum agreed that the sentence should come out. Marleen Gerber disagreed and Chairman DeLuccia deferred to Gabriele. Going forward, Gabriele said there are a number of other agreements that need to be worked out between the village and the applicant, and depending on if there are delays due to the ongoing COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, the demolishing of the existing structure and completion of the new building could be completed by mid-2022. —Michael Scro is a contributing writer for Anton Media Group For a longer version of this story, visit www.greatneckrecord.com

MASSAPEQUA

A New Era In Massapequa Park Mayor Daniel Pearl and Village Unity Party slate sworn in BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

t took nine months, but former trustee Daniel Pearl was finally sworn in as mayor of the Incorporated Village of Massapequa Park on Monday, Sept. 21. Also taking an oath to serve as newly elected trustees were running mates Dana Durso and Todd Svec. Pearl defeated interim mayor Teresa Spinosa, who was coming off an 18year stint in public service as a trustee and deputy mayor. Spinosa became interim mayor when former Mayor Jeff Pravato was voted as the Town of Oyster Bay Receiver of Taxes during the November 2019 elections. Pearl, a trustee for the past seven years, resigned his position back in January after announcing his intention to run along with Durso and Svec under the Village Unity Party banner. Rounding out the race was local resident and Just Get It Done Party candidate, Dr. Cynthia Paulis. With the pandemic hitting in mid-March and New York State imposing mandates that postponed all local referendums, the March 18 special election that should have only had a two-month campaign season instead stretched to nine months and culminated on Sept. 15. Pearl wound up pulling in 1,536 votes, Spinosa tallied 536 and Paulis came in with 371. While Pearl, a lifelong resident and the current Town of Oyster Bay deputy commissioner of the department of public works in charge of sanitation and solid waste, won handily, Spinosa claimed in an official statement that an influx of financial support to Pearl’s war chest from village outsiders allowed him to run a negative campaign during the extra six months the election ran. As far as Pearl is concerned his victory came based on the issues his party ran on and as for accusations of outsider influence, including one source reporting the town’s Republican Party donated $40,000 to his coffers, Pearl explained he raised $20,000 via two separate fund raisers attended by family and friends and flatly denied the accusation. But on this evening, any campaign recriminations were cast aside as Pearl took his oath of office surrounded by family and friends. Sworn in by Town of Oyster Bay Supervisor

During his acceptance speech, Pearl made

a point of thanking Spinosa, former trustee Rich Begandy (who lost his seat) and current trustee Tina Schiaffino, who served as the master of ceremonies for the evening. He also

thanked a number of town officials that were in attendance including Pravato and Assemblywoman Vicki Walsh. In keeping with the issues he campaigned on, Pearl pledged that he and his board would make elected officials contribute to their health insurance, aid downtown businesses economically reeling from the pandemic and ease the building permit process while ensuring sensible code enforcement. “Todd Svec, Dana Durso and I are committed to this community,” Pearl said. “We will put people first, and never politics. We are committed to keeping taxes down and making government accountable. We will ensure that the streets will continue to get repaved, that graffiti gets removed and that village government effectively communicates with local law enforcement to protect our quality of life and the safety of all our families.” Durso, a licensed real estate agent who has owned a number of local eateries, including Vincent’s Pizzeria on Boundary Avenue and Marinos on Carmans Road, was sworn in by Town of Oyster Bay Councilman Thomas Hand. Svec, the proprietor of Arlo Drug Store, was administered his oath by longtime friend and Town of Oyster Bay Councilman Steven Labriola. While the latter included personal anecdotes about Svec and Durso prior to swearing in the former, he saved his greatest praise for Pearl. “I’ve known him basically my entire adult life,” Labriola said. “We have worked together, both in politics and in government. I knew seven years ago that there was something very special about Dan Pearl and I had the privilege of recommending him to fill a vacancy as trustee for Mayor [Jim] Altadonna at the time. I’ve watched him become a real asset to this village over the years. I’m so proud of him and I’m so proud to be able to call him my friend. I know the village is in very good hands with this team, that cares so greatly about the people of this community and about keeping it one of the greatest places to live and to raise a family.” What did you think of this story?

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

RUTH BADER GINSBURG: A ‘SUPREME’ JUDICIAL GIANT As I was celebrating Rosh Hashanah with my family last Friday evening, I learned of the tragic passing of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Her death hit me like a punch in the stomach, leaving me breathless and scared because the true impact of her death may not be truly felt or appreciated for years to come. An American trailblazer and icon like Justice Ginsburg comes along very rarely in

our history and her legacy in championing equality and civil liberties for all Americans is carved into American jurisprudence for generations to come. However, with a president who has no regard or appreciation for our democracy and its pillars that keep its foundation strong and what I had believed to be indestructible, I am fearful that her legacy could very well be weakened, rendered de minimis or even erased. By

adding another narrow-minded and biased judge to the court, he could thereby facilitate the reversal and nullification of the progress this country has seen over the past 50 years in civil rights, women’s rights, LGBT rights and marriage equality, privacy rights and abortion rights. Justice Ginsburg’s death has brought our country to a tipping point. We must fight to preserve and protect the

fundamental rights bestowed on us all as a result of her life’s contributions as a selfless, dedicated, relentless trailblazer. I firmly believe she would be disappointed in all of us if we didn’t seize this opportunity to carry the torch that she lit and carried for 87 years. May she rest in peace and may her memory be a blessing for each and every one of us. —Legislator Arnold Drucker

Ruth Bader Ginsburg

“Ruth Bader Ginsburg leaves behind an unmatched legacy as one of the most important forces for women’s rights in modern day history. She paved the way for women everywhere and she continued fighting, even until her last day. Justice Ginsburg had an unwavering faith in the goodness of humanity, and she believed these trying times were only an anomaly. It is now up to us to prove her right.” —Representative Kathleen Rice “Tonight the United States mourns the loss of a legal giant. For a portion of 2007, I had the privilege of having Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg as a professor as part of a Hofstra University Summer law program. She was down to earth, and made sure she spoke to everyone who participated about their background and what their goals were for the future. Whether or not you agree with her legal opinions, there is no denying the huge

communities in our society. As we continue to celebrate her remarkable life and accomplishments and take steps to honor the legacy of a remarkable native New Yorker, let us redouble our commitment to ensuring the people’s voices are always heard and respected at every level of government - starting right here in Nassau County.” —Legislator Kevan Abrahams Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Real Solutions To The MTA Five-Alarm Fire & 12 Billion Shortfall MTA Chairman Pat Foye claims he is facing a “five alarm fire.” The solution requires fare box revenue, City Hall, Albany and Washington to all pitch in to put out the fire. Earlier in the year, the MTA requested $3.9 billion in additional funding. After receipt of $3.9 billion in CARE COVID19 funding, the MTA announced they needed another $3.9 billion. Today, it is $12 billion. What will it be tomorrow? Several weeks ago, it was a four-alarm fire. Now it is a five-alarm fire. What will it be tomorrow? MTA Chairman Patrick J. Foye reminds of Pinocchio. As I previously noted, there is still $12 billion or more worth of Federal Transit Administration (FTA) funding projects in active open grants. Why has the MTA refused to conduct a forensic audit to determine unspent available balances? The FTA issued guidance on March 13 that gave all transit agencies permission for reallocation of funding from capital projects in existing grants to use toward COVID-19 expenses. The same applies to 2020 and future 2021 formula funding under various FTA grant programs. The FTA made available $1.4 billion worth of annual formula funding

as part of many capital projects and consultant contracts (how much of this work could be performed by in-house forces) should be reallocated toward paying for COVID-19 expenses. When will the MTA make Larry Penner the difficult decisions to cancel these projects? How many more monthly MTA board meetings will come and go with no action?

Details of who will pay what can never be resolved and made public until this board is established, proceeds and completes its assigned mandated tasks. This process is very politically sensitive. It could take from six months to a year before congestion pricing could be agreed upon. I will not hold my breath waiting for MTA Chairman Foye’s future New York Times Guest OpEd holding de Blasio and Cuomo accountable for their respective contributions in delaying implementation of congestion tolling. MTA must make the difficult financial decisions like millions of New Yorkers out of work or underemployed to decide what to purchase today and what can wait until next year or later.

Creating College Friendships In The Time Of COVID-19 As many colleges reverse course merely days before they were set to begin in-person instruction, and as some abandon their plans after already having opened, many students are left scrambling and making last-minute arrangements during the pandemic. While each class of students faces its own unique circumstances as plans to gather in groups, study synchronously, put on productions, and travel abroad are upended, there is one particular cohort that is uniquely affected: the incoming freshmen/transfer students. New students during a typical year face the challenge of learning how to navigate the environment, prepare for the rigor of college-level work, as well as create networks of colleagues and friends. In a time when many of our students will be learning through a hybrid or fully virtual model, how can our incoming college students form connections? Before getting into creating connections, it is important to discuss why friendships are so important. During the developmental transition associated with college-aged students, many either begin or continue to develop their identities. These emerging adults also become more autonomous

You will also have the opportunity to learn more about the college, campus and surrounding community. No matter which way you choose to connect with others, remember that everyone in your freshman class is experiencing the trials and tribulations of entering college in a time of constant change. Find those you can both lean on and bond with to make this transition as smooth and as positive as possible. Good luck.

(Town of Oyster Bay photo) Town of Oyster Bay Supervisor Joseph Saladino and the Town Board recently recognized Juliana Terian with the Elizabeth Cady Stanton Leadership Award in recognition of her influential achievements that have inspired countless women. The award was presented on the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage, as the town commended the centennial of the fight for women’s rights being heard and ratified by our 19th Amendment. Terian took the reins as president and CEO in 2002 and built on the legacy of her late husband. An architect by training, she has put her background to good use when it comes to designing new facilities, including one dealership that was made completely environmentally friendly. She has supported her employees by introducing new training programs and strengthened opportunities for women. Fifth grade students from Lee Road Elementary School in the Levittown Public Schools observed International Dot Day on Sept. 15. The special day was created based on the Peter H.

Especially effective postpregnancy in a Mommy Makeover or after significant weight loss, this procedure improves abdominal contouring, and can have you in great shape in a very short period of time. Abdominoplasty is very effective in reducing or eliminating stretch marks, skin excess, and for correcting weakening of the abdominal muscles. Most women who have had children and those women and men that how had weight fluctuations will have some laxity of the abdominal wall and will experience excellent results.

Introducing Your Pet To Your New Bundle Of Joy

Certified dog trainer Michelle LaMarca Knapp shares her insight on best methods BY EMILY SAUCHELLI

ntroducing your pet to a new family member is a task that can be done effectively, when given the proper strategies and guidance. Certified professional dog trainer Michelle LaMarca Knapp said pet owners need to create a new routine in order for the dog to adjust to the new baby that’s coming. “If you feed your dog twice a day at 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. in the evening, you’ve got to start to vary that a little bit,” LaMarca Knapp said. “They may eat a little earlier one day and a little later for dinner. You need to work up to that so the dog stops anticipating its food at a different time. Same thing with walks. They have a regular bathroom routine. If you have to walk the dog, you’re going to have to switch it up or probably think about bringing in a dog walker. Especially in the first few months with a newborn, when life is so unpredictable.” She suggests getting a dog walker a few months before the baby is due, so that the dog can have time to build up a relationship with the person. If your pet enjoys spending time with other dogs, LaMarca Knapp said dog day care centers are another option to keep pets socialized. She said there is an important adjustment that has to be made between the parents and the dog. “Once the baby comes, you’re not going to have the time or the inclination to spend as much time with your

dog as your dog is used to,” LaMarca is to get the dog to ignore it.” Knapp said. “You don’t want the dog to Once the mother gives birth, she said associate the baby with lack of attenit’s important to bring the baby’s scent tion.

The dog has got to be conditioned beforehand and know that it’s not going to get the attention that it got beforehand.” LaMarca Knapp said it’s important that parents introduce baby items to the dog. She encourages it as this helps the dog be more understanding and aware that someone new is coming. I’d have the dog there when packages arrive,” she said. “I’d have the dog there when there’s any equipment you’re setting up. If you have a stroller before the baby is born, I’d practice on walks. I’d practice having the dog learn to walk at your side with the stroller. You can start that by taking the dog into Petco or PetSmart, and substitute a shopping cart for the stroller. Teach the dog to walk quietly, and when you stop, the dog sits.” She said changing routines and schedules can be done a couple of months before the baby’s due. As for behavior such as jumping, she suggests that once a woman finds out she’s pregnant, the training should take course. “The sooner the better,” LaMarca Knapp said. “The more they practice, the better they get it.” Michelle LaMarca Knapp owns and operates her own dog training business called Ain’t Misbehavin’ Canine Academy. She serves the areas of Northeast Queens, Nassau County and western Suffolk County.

LONG ISLAND WEEKLY

ANSWERING THE CALL Actor Luke Wilson hosts ABC’s new show Emergency Call BY ANTHONY MURRAY

amurray@antonmediagroup.com

wo hundred and forty million. That’s the number of calls Americans make every year to 911. And if you ever wondered what happened inside those call centers, wonder no more. ABC’s brand new show Emergency Call, which is hosted by actor Luke Wilson, will give viewers a first-hand look at the dramatic moments that lead up to the arrival of help rather than the events of what happens after firefighters, police or emergency medical services teams arrive. The hour-long episodes will focus on the extreme, suspenseful and sometimes humorous stories that flood 911 call centers. “Earlier this year, the producers got in touch with me and just wanted to see if I was interested in it,” Wilson said about how he became involved with the show. “For me growing up, my favorite section of The Dallas Morning News was always the metro section, which is part of the paper that dealt with not just crime, but car crashes and different things like that. I was always interested in where something happened, what time something happened, their name and their age—all that kind of stuff. It was always a short paragraph or just four sentences and I would always wonder what the rest of the story was. I was always into that and was just more focused on the police. You see shows about the police and firemen growing up, but you never thought about the call takers.

EMERGENCY CALL continued When I started talking to the producers of the show, I thought, ‘Wow. This really ties back into that’ and it was just something I never really thought about. You never really see the people who are the first link in the chain of first responders.” In the first episode, the show chronicles heart-pounding stories about rising flood waters in New Orleans that suddenly have people stranded on a highway inside their cars, a teenager’s scary encounter with a bear who is stalking her through the Alaskan wilderness, a granddaughter being coached through the phone on how to perform CPR on her unconscious grandfather, and more. “Viewers will get a really good glimpse of what the people are like who take these calls,” Wilson said. “What struck me the most was how sharp these people are in terms of multi-tasking. They’re not just getting your address and what happened. A lot of times they’re having to calm you down and it’s difficult to just get the address. One of the funny things these call takers said is that people would be surprised when you ask someone where they live and they say, ‘It’s the blue house on Wall Street’ and then they hang up. And I saw that happen multiple times where it’s a domestic disturbance and someone would say the street they live on and hang up. This one call taker had a funny thing where she said if someone is over 40 and she’s having trouble getting their address, she’ll tell the caller if she was going to send a letter to the caller, where would she send it and then the caller gives her the [actual] address. So they figured out these shortcuts to get the facts of exactly where someone lives.” So why is a show such as Emergency Call

important to have on television? “When I would visit these call centers, there would be these little lulls and I’d get the chance to have these good talks with people where they’d say that people just don’t call 911 because they’re having a good day. I hope people will get a sense of how great and sharp these people are, and also how empathetic they are. I’ve heard these crazy action packed calls and then I heard a heartbreaking call where a couple of weeks ago I was down south of LA in a call center and a woman called with Alzheimer’s and this incredibly kind call taker talked to this woman, who didn’t know what year it was or where she lived. My heart kept breaking and this call taker kept talking to this woman who would get suspicious and would ask, ‘Why are you asking me all these questions?’ Having people with this disease, I knew exactly what the call taker was dealing with and how daunting a task it is. There’s these action packed calls that we have on the show, but there’s also these touching calls where you realize they [call takers] really are a part of the community.” Besides being host of Emergency Call, Wilson has established himself as of one of the most versatile actors of his generation with his indelible performances in broad comedies, thoughtful dramas and provocative independent features. Some of his credits include Wes Anderson’s Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, and The Royal Tenenbaums; The Skeleton Twins opposite Bill Hader and Kristin Wiig; Old School with Will Ferrell and Vince Vaughn; the Legally Blonde franchise with Reese Witherspoon and more. In 2005, Wilson wrote, starred in, and co-directed with his brother Andrew Wilson, The Wendell

I was just lucky enough to hook up with these really smart creative guys that we started making short films together and writing.

Though you sometimes prefer a solo journey, it’s not that kind of year. Over the next 12 months, you will often be challenged and enriched by companionship on a mutual path. The support makes for lighter work and moving quickly toward goals. January brings a breakthrough and money follows shortly. There’s room in an elite program or relationship and the position is yours for the taking, should you decide you want it. Improvements in self-care mean your physical strength increases.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll find yourself in an intense situation this week, but you can make it less so by turning down the heat in your own head. Can you play it a different way to get a different response? Of course. Since that’s always an option, there is no benefit to forcing your first or even your 21st attempt. Take a breath, and then try again. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It is your instinct to share, regardless of how much you have. There are certain people you’d do absolutely anything for, and then there are generosities you would give to pretty much anyone because, in your book, it’s just part of being a decent human. This is why the bighearted spirits are attracted to you, a kindred spirit. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Whatever the issue, it can be handled with positive you-to-you communication. If you take it to the crowd, then you’ll have support and ideas. However, ultimately, you already know what you’re going to do; you’re just not entirely sure you trust yourself. Let go of doubt. You’re the absolute right person to lead you in this. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Many decisions don’t feel like decisions because they come so automatically to you, and yet there really is a moment of choice. It will bring good luck to make a pro-and-con list for some of these choices, because it reinforces your values and bears some self-appreciation, which will raise your confidence. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your idea of what constitutes indulgence is different from that of those around you. You will witness many levels and kinds of relaxation and be interested in what people allow and deny themselves. You’ll wonder if you’re going too hard or easy on yourself. Much depends on what result you are trying to achieve. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). If there’s one thing that opens the world wide to you, it’s good listening skills. Listening facilitates learning, makes relationships thrive and allows for the best decision-making. Excellent listening engages all senses, including, and very importantly, the emotional and spiritual senses accessed with an open heart. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). When you don’t get what you want from a person, it was just the wrong person. You can find it somewhere else once you move on. If you don’t move on, then you’ll have a problem. Graceful living has a lot to do with finding and recognizing a good match instead of trying to make a bad one work. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). They may think of you as a rock of emotional stability, but you’re not stoic. You have plenty of passion for what matters to you and lots of whimsy and playfulness for situations that don’t. Your ability to read the room and act appropriately allows you to fit into a wide range of situations. The world is your oyster. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It’s not always the case, but this week what is personally relevant to you will also ring true with the general public. If you broadcast a bit of it on social media, you’ll be met with interest and support. This weekend will bring an easy, comfortable connection. Relax and enjoy yourself and the others will do the same.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’re like a fully loaded navigation system. All the maps you need to get through life are already inside you, so don’t be too afraid to stray from the path. You’ll experience interesting, noteworthy, exciting moments and you won’t get lost either because something will always be pulling you back. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Sometimes, it so happens, you give yourself a directive and then do the opposite. How curious! Fear is the culprit here, and avoidance is a natural response. Just remember that the things we avoid are usually our best chance at getting stronger and better. Thank your fear, and then proceed anyway. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You run in a talented group, and it’s very normal for each to try and outdo the other. The friendly competition is part of what keeps everyone sharp and on their game. On the other hand, it’s liberating to get to a point in which you realize there is no one to impress, only the thrill of pumping your wings to soar higher.

Ticket Demand Booming For Islanders At UBS Arena At Belmont Park Islanders fans received “I Love NY” Islanders t-shirts last weekend as the team played in the Eastern Conference Finals. Photo courtesy of the New York Islanders)

Islanders Give Back With I Love NY T-Shirts

he New York Islanders surged in the NHL Playoffs, reaching the Eastern Conference Finals, and on the heels of a big win before they were eliminated, the team gave back to the fans with an exclusive “I Love NY” Islanders t-shirt across the tri-state area. The team partnered with a number of bars and restaurants to serve as

pick-up locations while brand ambassadors visited select neighborhoods to spread the playoff hype for the Blue and Orange. The energy of the fans during the playoffs was tremendous, with even the players from other teams in the NHL bubble noticing all of the messages of support, thanks to the power of social media. —Submitted by the New York Islanders

The New York Islanders Hockey Club has seen ticket demand skyrocket over the last month. Recently, the Islanders set an all-time record for season ticket sales, driven by the team’s playoff success and by the recent launch of UBS Arena at Belmont Park. Only 20 percent of season tickets remain available for the inaugural 2021-22 NHL season. “As the team heads into the second round of the playoffs, the unprecedented demand for season tickets adds a new level of excitement about the team,” Islanders co-owner Jon Ledecky said. “The support from our loyal Islanders fans across the metro New York region has been tremendous.” The Islanders also expect to be sold out of premium inventory by early next year. UBS Arena at Belmont Park has sold more than one-third of its suite inventory in the last two weeks. “We are thrilled to see this strong response to UBS Arena at Belmont Park, which will be the state of the art sports and music venue in the market,” Tim Leiweke, CEO of Oak View Group, a partner in UBS Arena at Belmont Park, said. Additional information on season ticket memberships and UBS Arena can be found at www.newyorkislanders.com/ubsarena. —Submitted by the New York Islanders
