THE CORONAVIRUS - A WORLD IN A CRISIS

Despite Claims, County Needs More Contact Tracers To Reopen

BY MIKE ADAMS

madams@antonmediagroup.com

hroughout last week, Nassau County Executive Laura Curran has claimed the county currently meets five out of the seven requirements needed to begin reopening in accordance with New York State guidelines. In truth, the county currently only meets four of seven requirements. Currently, Nassau County and Suffolk County, which are being treated as one region by the state and must meet all guidelines together, have managed to bring total hospitalizations down for more than 14-straight days, increase the number of both general hospital beds and ICU beds available to acceptable numbers and conduct testing at a sufficient rate to meet state mandates. The county executive has acknowledged the region has not yet managed to lower COVID-19 death rates or hospitalization rates to within state parameters, but remarked that Nassau can “sort of tentatively check” off the requirement that the county have enough contact tracers to adequately track the movements and activities of people who test positive for coronavirus at a May 12 press conference. “We need to have 30 contact tracers per 100,000 residents, which means here in Nassau County we have to have more than 400 contact tracers,” Curran said. “The state has put us in the ‘expected to get there’ category. We have 50 and we will work with the state to identify additional tracers.” Although neither Nassau nor Suffolk have hired enough contact tracers to meet state requirements, both county governments and local media outlets have consistently included the requirement that the region have a sufficient number of contact tracers as one of the requirements the region has already fulfilled. Representatives from the county executive’s office were asked to clarify why this is the case, but did not respond prior to publication. The New York State Department of Health is looking to hire additional contact tracers who will work remotely to call people diagnosed with COVID-19 to determine who they have been in contact with to help lower the spread of coronavirus. Anybody

looking to apply for the job can visit www.bit.ly/2zxwhdd to do so. Nassau County Department of Health Commissioner Lawrence Eisenstein praised the efforts of the county’s 50 contact tracers up to this point, and said increasing the resources put towards that effort will be essential to minimizing risk when the county reopens. “When there is a case, we’ve got to be very thorough in making sure we find the source and making sure the disease doesn’t spread.” Eisenstein said. “With those methods in place, we believe we can advance safely.” Dr. Jaymie Meliker, an epidemiologist and public health professor with Stony Brook Medicine, explained that contact tracing can help contain a pandemic, but only if it’s implemented early enough. “Epidemiology 101 is contact tracing,” Meliker said. “Contact tracing can work, but you have to put the resources in and you have to get it early. Once it spirals, it’s impossible without basically going into lockdown.” Although the May 15 expiration date of New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo’s statewide shutdown order has passed, Long Island will be unable to begin reopening until it checks off those final three

requirements. The first phase of reopening will permit nonessential businesses in fields like retail, wholesale and manufacturing to begin limited operations. As one of the regions that has not met the requirements, the stay-at-home order has been extended on Long Island until at least May 28. New York State has been divided into 10 regions to help better coordinate the reopening process. Only three regions, the Finger Lakes area, the Mohawk Valley region and the northernmost counties in the state, were cleared to enter the first phase of the process on May 15. Each region has been given what the state calls a Regional Control Room, a multi-member advisory board to steer it through the reopening process. Both Curran and Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone were named to Long Island’s control room. The board is being headed by Empire State Development CEO Eric Gertler, and also includes Long Island Association President Kevin Law, Long Island Federation of Labor President John Durso and NAACP regional director Tracey Edwards. Curran has been reluctant to offer a concrete timeline on when Long Island will be ready to enter phase

one, but has remarked that the region might be ready earlier than her initial estimate of the end of June. Law has said Long Island may not be ready for weeks. Members of Nassau County’s Coronavirus Economic Advisory Council have petitioned Cuomo to allow for certain businesses, like construction, curbside retail, private gardens and elective surgeries, to be reclassified as essential so they can begin operations before Long Island meets reopening requirements. While the ongoing shutdown continues to impact local businesses and drive up unemployment numbers, Eisenstein and other health officials have consistently warned about the dangers of trying to reopen Long Island too early. “Until you have zero cases, you have to make sure that the mechanisms are in place to prevent the spread of disease,” Eisenstein said. “We have seen in other places that have opened, when measures were not done carefully the disease is just re-energized.” What did you think of this story?

Rite Aid Offers Drive-Through COVID-19 Testing Q A

BY JOSEPH WOLKIN

jwolkin@antonmediagroup.com

s COVID-19 testing becomes more available to the general public, additional testing sites are being created. However, only a select few of those sites actually enable people to get tested when they are asymptomatic but believe they might have been exposed to the coronavirus in recent days. The Rite Aid Corporation decided to step up in this time of need, unveiling 46 COVID-19 testing sites, including several on Long Island. The drug store chain is providing free coronavirus self-swab nasal tests, which its pharmacies will then send to a lab for testing. The tests will be conducted in the Rite Aid store’s drive-through window. The testing sites are located at 3131 Hempstead Tpke. in Levittown, 229 Independence Plaza in Selden and 803 Montauk Highway Unit D in Shirley. There are also multiple locations throughout New York City. Anton Media Group spoke with

overall as it relates to COVID-19. We just wanted to be a solution for our customers. We understand that our customers are looking for as much information about COVID-19, treatments, prevention, tissues, hand What inspired Rite Aid to sanitizer and whatever else. In the implement the testing site early stages, we were trying to get out program? there and help them with what they We, as an organization, have needed. The opportunity came up been looking at the state of affairs where we could work alongside HHS [United States Department of Health and Human Services] and FEMA [Federal Emergency Management Agency] to set up a testing site. Our first site was in Philadelphia, which ran start to finish with FEMA and HHS. We were staffing it and learning what the model looks like. Through that, it evolved into letting us open our own testing sites with our own Rite Aid play book of how we collect the samples and deliver them to the lab. We saw it was a great opportunity to be the health care provider in our communities so our customers can stay safe.

Chris Altman, a manager of clinical programs at Rite Aid. Altman discusses everything from the program’s beginnings to how it works, how to sign up and more.

Q A

Randy Cares

List or buy with me and a portion of my commission will be donated to the charity of your choice.

Last week, you kicked off the program that lets people who are asymptomatic get tested for the virus. How important is that? It’s important from two angles. One of them is the individual’s perspective. During this time, it’s important to know if you have COVID or not. If you’re not symptomatic, you can still be infectious. We recognize these individuals have the need to get tested. The second side of it is looking at it from a global perspective. To me, it looks like states are trying to open up and get to some sort of state of normal. It’s critical to support the effort as a whole to help get the country opened up as a whole and to see if it’s safe to get back out and what precautions did you need to do when you are out.

How do people sign up to get tested? You sign up online at www. riteaid.com and there’s a link at the very top of our page. It takes you through a screening process, which was originally developed for eligibility criteria. Now, it’s mainly to collect demographic data so we can share it with the Department of Health. After you are screened and determined eligible for testing, which most people are, you pick an appointment time for the next day or the day after. Once you show up at the site, someone greets you. We have two models running. One is when you’re outside of the store the entire time in tents and the other is when you go up to the drivethrough. A pharmacist will provide you with the testing equipment and will walk you through how to do the self swab. Then, they give it back to the pharmacist and we ship it out to the lab.

How did the organization determine which Rite Aid stores would have the testing available? We worked with Health and Human Services to give us a general map of areas they identified as hot spots that need testing. The need was determined by what is currently available in an area, plus how many people are currently showing symptoms. We took that information to see if we had pharmacies that could accommodate testing, having the right type of drive-through and the right staffing available.

Q A

What challenges were there in putting this program together in such a quick period? We have grown this program from start to finish. It’s hard to say specific challenges. This was brand-new to us at Rite Aid. We didn’t have a COVID-19 testing department two months ago. We had to decide how to put the right vendors to support us, the supply chain of equipment and then, putting together how all of the pieces fit. We had to develop this within our four walls very quickly. Our strategy team is really dedicated to getting this done correctly.

Cuomo’s Education Comments Draw Concern From Teachers Union

BY MIKE ADAMS

madams@antonmediagroup.com

ew York State Governor Andrew Cuomo recently announced that the state has contracted the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to “reimagine” the state’s education system for a post-coronavirus reality. Cuomo acknowledged during the May 5 press conference, where he announced the partnership, that the rapid transition to distance-based education across the state was fraught with errors, but suggested a greater reliance on technology might be beneficial even after schools physically reopen. “The old model of everybody goes and sits in the classroom and the teacher is in front of that classroom and teaches that class and you do that all across the city, all across the state, all these buildings, all these physical classrooms— why, with all the technology you have?” Cuomo said. “We have classrooms in this state that have technology where they’re talking to students on Long Island with a teacher from Staten Island with students from around the world participating with

technology, hearing that one teacher. When we reopen schools, let’s open a better school and let’s open a smarter education system.” Cuomo called the former Microsoft CEO, whose net worth is estimated at more than $100 billion by Forbes, a visionary in the field of education while praising the worth his nonprofit has done. Over the past 20 years, the Gates Foundation has devoted

hundreds of millions of dollars to advancing the goals its namesake and primary benefactor feels are essential to improving K-12 education across the United States. The foundation’s website states that it focuses on seven priorities to aid students and teachers, including increasing access to charter schools, improving curricula and providing districts with access to technology. Representatives from the Gates Foundation declined a request to comment on the details of its arrangement with the state, but told the Washington Post in a statement that it will recommend education experts to aid the reimagining process and contribute insights it has acquired about how technology can benefit education. This isn’t the first time the Gates Foundation has had a hand in shaping learning in New York. The foundation was a major funder in the project that created the Common Core Standards, whose implementation in the state was met with widespread derision from parents, teachers and students alike. The foundation’s involvement with Common Core made New York State Union of Teachers (NYSUT) President Andrew Pallotta nervous when he heard the governor would be partnering with them. “You just want to hold your head and say ‘not again,’” Pallotta said. “Our experience with the Gates Foundation and their philosophy on education, with the extensive testing and the Common Core—it wasn’t productive for New York State. A lot of time, a lot of energy and a lot of money really went down the drain. Bringing back somebody who really wasn’t helpful, we just look at that and say are we really going to go down that path.” Pallotta, himself a former teacher, said that the NYSUT agrees that

technology can help teachers do their jobs more effectively, but stressed the importance of returning to a face-toface learning model when it’s safe to do so. He also added that an increased reliance on technology to teach during the pandemic has only heightened the gap in education quality between students who can afford electronics and students who cannot. “Some districts have more resources, and other places around the state where we’re doing distance learning and if the students don’t have an iPad or a computer, it’s really of no value to them,” Pallotta said. “We have really seen just the way poverty and the lack of opportunity in some places has affected the quality of education.” In addition to the Gates Foundation, Cuomo named a list of 19 officials that will serve on the state’s Reimagine Education Advisory Council. The list includes administrators, teachers and activists from both K-12 backgrounds and higher education drawn from across the state. The council includes two people representing Long Island: Suffolk County parent Jackie Burbridge and William Floyd School District teacher Martin Palermo. “Like everything else, when we do reopen schools it’s not just about reopening as they were before, it’s about building back even better than before,” Cuomo said. “The collective expertise and experience of this new advisory council will help answer key questions about how we can strengthen New York’s entire education system for decades to come.”

Nassau County Legislature Steps Up In Time Of Need

Bipartisan effort spreads positivity throughout pandemic woes BY JOSEPH WOLKIN

jwolkin@antonmediagroup.com

n the middle of the coronavirus pandemic, it is not the time for politicians to spew hate. Fortunately, both parties within the Nassau County Legislature have remained civil. The Republican majority and the Democratic minority have been working on numerous ways to help the community-at-large during the COVID-19 crisis. While Nassau County in particular has been hit quite hard by the virus, politicians have stepped up in ways unlike ever before. From spearheading car parades to thank you cards, new legislation to help county residents and more, the bipartisan efforts have been easy to spot, unlike in the nation’s capital. The Nassau County Legislature approved the acceptance of more than $12 million from the federal

government has been called upon to meet those emerging needs by devising innovative, safer new methods of delivering the services our constituents rely upon,” Legislator Arnold Drucker (D—Plainview) said. Drucker, as well as Legislator Joshua Lafzan (D—Woodbury), have been spearheading efforts to help those who are food insecure within Nassau County’s borders since New York Governor Andrew Cuomo mandated a stay-at-home order in March. One of the biggest campaigns has been the Neighbors Helping Neighbors initiative, which assists senior citizens with grocery shopping to keep them safe and inside of their homes. Lafazan also partnered with The Home Depot in sending care packages to seniors of the Syosset VFW, which included toilet paper, disposable nitrile gloves, face masks, hand sanitizer and more. He also spent last Saturday giving out free face masks to residents at Syosset High School. Nassau County Executive Laura Curran, who is holding press conferences each day to update residents about the latest coronavirus information in the region, also announced the creation of the NUMC Forward taskforce with Legislator Siela Bynoe (D—Westbury). Bynoe has been spearheading Thankful Tuesdays in Westbury in an effort to show appreciation to the first responders who are risking their lives on a daily basis in the fight against the coronavirus. Additionally, Legislator Delia DeRiggion-Whitton (D—Glen Cove)

has supported and participated in weekly deliveries of food and supplies through Glen Cove City Councilwoman Dr. Eve LupenkoFerrante and husband John Ferrante’s “Do Good to Feel Good” campaign. “While these deliveries help us ensure that no family in our community goes without food or essential supplies, it also gives us an opportunity to check in with our neighbors, have a conversation and ensure that their needs are being met,” DeRiggiWhitton said. Legislator Ellen Birnbaum (D—Great Neck) joined the Iranian American Jewish Federation of New York in late April to distribute thousands of surgical masks to residents during a drive-through distribution event in the Great Neck Library parking lot. There is also the mental wellness factor, too. Legislator John Ferretti (R—Levittown) launched a mental health website, www.nassaucountyny. gov/4986/Mental-Health-Resourcesfor-Children-and. The page lists 18 different organizations that Long Island residents can contact for virtual counseling. Additionally, Drucker and New York State Senator Jim Gaughran also held a talk with the Jericho Public Library called “Coping and Balancing During the Pandemic” to help put mental wellness issues at the forefront of this pandemic. Ferretti also created the Thank You to Our Heroes campaign, which encouraged children throughout the region to send first responders thank you notes during this unprecedented time. In a short span, Ferretti delivered more than 2,000 notes after quarantining them for a week. The majority caucus partnered with Long Island Cares-Harry Chapin Food Bank to start a virtual food drive to help those that are hungry in Nassau County. At the time of publication, they surpassed the halfway point of the 5,000 pounds of food donations for the food bank. People can select items on the Long Island Cares site, www. licares.org.

Cover A Hero

Students make blankets for frontline workers BY CAROLINE RYAN

sabelle Rosen, a Plandome resident and junior at Friends Academy in Locust Valley and Ari Chananya a junior at Jericho High School, were so moved by the heroic efforts of those on the frontlines battling the COVID-19 pandemic. Together, the two friends decided to create a charitable business selling blankets for healthcare workers on the frontlines. “All of the courage and selflessness from the first responders fills our heart with pride and awe,” Rosen said. “They have all become real-life heroes. We just want to reach out and give every one of them a hug and thank them. But for practical reasons and social distancing that is not possible. So we thought about what would be the best next thing to a hug. How could we make them feel comfortable when they leave the hospital after a hard day? What could we give them that they could also enjoy with their

family that we too have been enjoying while we have been quarantined home together? A blanket.” Rosen and Chananya came up with a simple design for each blanket, which features an American flag and a motivational slogan reminding people to stick together and stay united during this difficult time. The purchase of each blanket, which retails for $24.99, features a note with the name of the donor and a special message. The proceeds from each purchase goes towards creating, sourcing, manufacturing and distributing more blankets to distribute to frontline workers. The two friends decided to create this project as a way to show how appreciative they are for healthcare workers and the heroic efforts they are putting forth each day. “Our idea was simple, we want to thank our heroes and [we] feel that even though we can’t physically embrace them, these blankets serve as a reminder of our appreciation

Staying Positive In The Face Of COVID-19 Farmingdale fitness business pays it forward

BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

ot unlike other retail outlets, NutriWolf has been taking it on the chin because of COVID-19 and the closures that have come about by way of Governor Andrew Cuomo’s NY On Pause Executive Order. Owned by partners Darren Anselmo and Ron Fairclough, this business, with locations in Farmingdale and Deer Park, stocks vitamins and supplements, in addition to selling prepared meals and helping customers achieve their fitness goals. While Anselmo is fighting to keep Nutriwolf afloat, he has been taking the coronavirus situation seriously dating back to the middle of March. “We were one of the first people in our area to use contactless transactions,” Anselmo said. “Ronnie’s wife works in the ER and she was one of the first people to tell me how [serious] it was before everyone knew how bad it really was. About March 16, I initiated contactless transactions. We stopped taking cash and only take credit cards—we only take customers’ credit card numbers. We set up a table near the door, so only one person can stand in the doorway at a time. Early on, people were asking if all this was necessary and if we were taking things a little too far. But I preemptively took those precautions for the safety of my staff and customers as well as my own. It was a little rough.” In navigating this new normal, Anselmo is able to stay open as an essential business, given that he uses an off-site commissary kitchen to create fresh prepared meals, which can be picked up on-site and ordered via Door Dash and Uber Eats. The Farmingdale native is also paying it forward by giving many of these meals to local frontline workers and law enforcement.

“We make meals and I’ve been donating them every week to local hospitals and police departments to take care of the people on the frontline and do whatever it is I can do,” he said. “All they get is pizza, and I’m not going to knock it because my partner owns a pizzeria—but they’re getting a lot of foods that are not going to help them lose weight. At this point, we want to do what we can helping people on the front lines eat a healthy meal. There is only so much crap you can eat. We’re trying to go that route and give them some healthy options.” While his current COVID-19 situation is less than optimal, it’s just the latest obstacle Anselmo has cleared. A personal trainer for a decade who started participating in body building competitions in recent years, Anselmo’s first stab at a business was launched back in 2010 out of the Farmingdale gym Infinity Fitness. Armed with a business management degree from Farmingdale College and his $30,000 life savings, Anselmo was not only victimized by $9,000 worth of Internet fraud in his first year, but wound up getting briefly sidelined after the gym suddenly closed down. The fledgling entrepreneur operated

out of a storage facility until meeting his current partner at a New Year’s Eve party, where the latter proposed they relaunch it as a brick-and-mortar business. While getting everything going was enough of a challenge, Anselmo and Fairclough had to rebrand after getting legally threatened by Monster Energy Drink. “We used to be called Monster Nutrition—that was the original name,” Anselmo said. “Last year, we got a cease-and-desist legal packet from Monster Energy Drink’s lawyers claiming that we infringed on their trademark rights. They actually had the [nerve] to ask me to pay for their lawyer fees for sending the cease-and-desist. But I turned around and asked them to become a partner in the business and

get these stores to open up across Long Island. They basically told me to go screw myself.” Guided by a firm belief that positivity is far more contagious than negativity, Anselmo is continuing to spread good vibes while keeping his dream alive. “I’m just trying to keep my head above water with this business and do right by my employees at the end of the day,” he said. “We’re not all in the same boat, but we’re dealing with the same problem.” Visit www.nutriwolfstores.com or call 516-752-6819 to find out more about NutriWolf.

A Fashionable Feat

New Hyde Park business makes couture masks for frontline workers BY ANTHONY MURRAY

amurray@antonmediagroup.com

esiding and working in New Hyde Park for more than 20 years, fashion designer Mario Ramo is stepping up to the plate to help others by making and donating PPE masks to frontline workers by using fabric from his dress designs. “I am originally from Guyana and both my grandmothers were excellent dressmakers in my hometown,” he said. “My aunt was a ballerina and she had many fancy dresses. I grew up around the arts and fashion, and was heavily influenced by them. When I moved to New York, I studied fashion design at the F.I.T. in 1987. I’ve been working as a couturier and designer ever since, doing custom dresses for all occasions, including weddings.” After the state mandated shutdown by Governor Andrew Cuomo back in mid-March that affected non-essential businesses, Ramo’s work came to a standstill. “I’ve built up a wide clientele of various backgrounds and professions, including nurses, a few of whom

are my friends,” Ramo explained. “After the shutdown, all the events were cancelled, so my work was at a standstill. I wanted to contribute in some way and Mario Ramo I thought I could make masks for my friends and family. Word got around and I got orders for more. I know they are not the N95 masks, but they should help reduce the spread of COVID-19, especially for hospital workers.” So how are these masks made? “I have lots of cotton and other fashion fabrics at hand, so it was easy to just stitch them up,” Ramo said. “People have told me they love the unique colors and patterns.” Since being apart of the New Hyde Park community for more than 20 years, Ramo said that he loves the diverse community within the village and more. “I’m also a member of the chamber

of commerce,” he said. “I love that it’s an up and coming neighborhood and that it’s close to the city. I think I am most proud of how everyone is finding small ways to help one another at this time. I am grateful for the brave work that our local nurses and other medical professionals are doing as well, every single day. It’s always satisfying to do work that you enjoy and to treat everyone around you with respect and tenderness. These values, for me, are especially important during crises like the one we are all facing right now.” For more information and to see more of Ramo’s designs, you can visit his Instagram page, @ marioramocouture.

We increased communications to the congregation via streaming, web page, email and social media.

Some folks were scared, some alone, some sick, and some were every permutation of these you can think of. Our rabbi, cantor and the director of education reached out to the members of the congregation. People reached out to each other. Things like Roundtable Rap helped bring people together. We continued to hold services with just the clergy and piano player so they could continue to feed the spiritual appetite of the congregation. When it came time for a scheduled bar or bat mitzvah, they were held with only the family and clergy in the sanctuary while the service was streamed. At the same time the focus was on “today”, we also started thinking about the future and planning for it no matter

what it looks like. This is an ongoing effort. Planning and doing, all these people pitching in to help, it’s actually a pretty incredible thing to be able to observe. Normally a congregation requires a lot of time and people to be able to function. Now let’s complicate that by all the things we can’t do now and it’s pretty easy to see that there is a lot of love and passion being given freely to keep the congregation a congregation. Why? Because people figured that if the congregation was important to them it must be important to others as well. The reality of it was that all of us faced bouts of boredom. All these meetings not only helped the congregation but also gave people something to do that kept the creative and innovative juices flowing. Why tell you all of this? It’s not for a pat on the back; no not at all. It’s because something remarkable happened and you should know about it. It speaks volumes about who we are and who we will be in the future. —Mark Natelson, Vice president, Temple Or Elohim, A Community Reform Congregation

East River Tunnel Repair Delays Are Bad News For LIRR Riders Amtrak’s plans to delay the decades overdue major repairs to the four East River tunnels until after the LIRR begins service into Grand Central Terminal in December 2022 is bad news for both riders and taxpayers. Delaying the start of work by six years from 2019 to 2024 will increase costs by 300 percent to $1 billion. How will Amtrak and MTA come up with an almost $600 million shortfall? Continued deterioration of the East River Tunnels over this time period could result in an increased scope of work. Combined with responses to the procurement process from contractors, this could then result in a final price tag of several hundred million more than the current engineers’ estimate. Remember, only one of four East River tunnels can be worked on at a time. Two of four tunnels suffered significant damage from Super Storm Sandy in 2012. They may require one to two years for repair work. The remaining two tunnels will need one year each. As a result, this project may not be completed until 2030. The Federal Transit Administration provided $432 billion in June 2016 to

PENNER STATION Larry Penner

the MTA. These funds were intended to be spent quickly for 2012 Super Storm Sandy-related work in the East River Tunnels to bring them up to a state of good repair. Amtrak may not begin to use these funds for another eight years. This does no one any good. Based upon the most recent project recovery schedule, who knows if the LIRR will begin service into Grand Central Terminal by December 2022. A majority of the promised 24 trains a.m. and p.m. rush hour peak service will be either new trains or those which previously terminated at Atlantic Terminal Brooklyn. Few will be diverted from Penn Station. With only two tunnels serving Grand Central Terminal, there is little

capacity to add additional diverted trains from Penn Station. There is no equivalent West Side Storage Yard to store trains between rush hours at Grand Central Terminal. Initiation of LIRR East Side Access to Grand Central Terminal means the end of direct service to the Atlantic Terminal. This will be replaced by a scoot service to Jamaica. Amtrak’s excuse to wait for LIRR East Side Access to Grand Central Terminal before starting work on the East River Tunnels is disappointing. Another reason may be a shortage of Amtrak Force Account employees. Amtrak, NJ Transit and the LIRR may have insufficient certified signal and other specialized craft employees to manage their respective complex state of good repair and new system expansion projects. Amtrak force account employees are committed to other projects on the Northeast Corridor. This includes supporting MTA LIRR East Side Access to Grand Central Terminal, Portal Bridge, Gateway Tunnel, NJ Transit (Northeast Corridor), Moynihan Penn Station Train Hall and Metro North NY to

Connecticut New Haven line. How can Amtrak provide sufficient numbers of employees to work on these key states of good repair and system expansion projects while support work on the East River Tunnels all at the same time? It is doubtful that the LIRR will give up any current 42 peak service train slots at Penn Station even when expanding operations into Grand Central Terminal. There will continue to be a three-way competition between Amtrak, LIRR and NJ Transit for Penn Station access, Metro North will also look for rush hour access to Penn Station resulting in a four-way competition. Don’t be surprised if there are no changes to level of Penn Station rush hour service in the foreseeable future. —Larry Penner is a transportation advocate, historian and writer, who previously worked in 31 years for the Federal Transit Administration Region 2 office. This included the review, approval and oversight for billions of dollars in grants to the MTA which funded LIRR, Metro North, NYC Transit and MTA Bus capital projects and programs.

Student Perspectives During The COVID-19 Pandemic With the advent of the coronavirus pandemic, the world has been put on hold. This public health crisis has strained many sectors of society due to diminishing resources, travel restrictions, and overburdened healthcare workers. Amidst all this, people are rising together to help their communities. Over the past few months, while staying at home, I’ve used my time to join this wave of organizers and created LILAC, a COVID-19 relief organization. At the beginning of the pandemic, I stumbled upon the social media page of a local Nassau County Legislator Joshua Lafazan, encouraging people to submit Thank You letters for health care workers. Inspired by the idea, I wrote an open letter to health care workers, which was published in my local paper. As schools in New York and Long Island began closing, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio broadcasted the urgent need for protective supplies in NYC. I realized then and there I must do something about the urgent need for PPE within my community. I founded Long Island Laboring Against COVID-19, or LILAC, an organization that raises funds to serve

STUDENT LIFE Sabrina Guo

COVID-19 patients, medical professionals, first responders, and frontline workers putting their lives at risk. I created a GoFundMe on March 23. By May 7, we raised more than $17,000 dollars of LILAC’s $20,000 fundraising goal. Also, to meet the enormous demand for more PPE in NYC and Long Island, inspired and motivated by the philanthropic actions of individuals and businesses, and to pay tribute to all those frontline health care workers and non-medical essential workers who have lost their lives, I donated $40,000 of my college savings and $950 of personal savings to help. With these funds, LILAC purchased 25,000 masks and 1,000 medical coveralls/gowns. LILAC has also created the Thank You and We Care initiative, which

raises the medical community’s spirits by compiling and distributing encouraging letters, cards, artwork, and creative videos for local health workers and patients. We’ve partnered with politicians, including Lafazan and Congressman Tom Suozzi, to donate masks and artwork from this Initiative to hospitals, nursing homes, first responders, fire departments and local government offices. In addition, we’ve garnered support from nonprofits, magazines, school district administrators and other community and cultural leaders. I’m also rolling out the initiative with 10 public schools in my school district. With this outpouring of support, I’ve been able to radically mobilize my community and help hundreds of people. As LILAC grows, I’m seeking driven students who desire to support their communities. There are many ways to get involved, from submitting artwork, letters and videos to our Thank You and We Care initiative, to joining the organization itself and making an impact in your local community. Young people are uniquely positioned in this time to shape the future of our communities. At LILAC, our

members have steadily grown, and one member, Willow Dunn, spoke to how touched she was by the sacrifices being made. “If I had to choose a personal hero,” Dunn said, “it would be all of the people working in hospitals during this pandemic.” It’s important to use the privileges we have to serve others, whether through strategically allocating resources or shining light on those neglected by society. Another LILAC member, Alyssa Pinto, spoke about our duty to help uplift our fellow human beings and remember their work. “I hope all medical professionals get paid their dues,” Pinto said. “We must tell the stories of all medical workers who put blood, sweat and tears to save every life they could.” If you are interested in knowing more about how you can join, check out LILAC’s GoFundMe at https://www.gofundme.com/f/ LILACovid19 or follow our Instagram @LILACovid_19 for more updates. —Sabrina Guo is an award-winning student journalist who attends Syosset High School.

I started out as a copy writer and eventually was able to put together a weekly paper, even making sure it was delivered to the newsstand. For that reason and many others, I am a firm believer that the weekly newspaper is a treasure to be protected and kept alive. The pandemic has had a dramatic impact on all sorts of printed media. You can tell by the lack of advertising, which is the lifeblood of any newspaper. No paper can survive without this revenue, so the virus represents a life or death challenge to the existence of your weekly paper. Thanks to the internet, we can

The weekly newspaper business relies on ads and community support and we have to find ways to keep them afloat. You access many forms of information.

You can tell others to support their papers because word of mouth works especially now when we rely on our phones to reach the outside world. And you can tell the merchants who you visit briefly that they, too, should support their weekly paper. No one has asked me to write this particular column. But having a long history of being a part of this critical business, I felt it was the right tell time to share my thinking with you. Hopefully, over the next few months, we will be able to resume a more normal life, but it would never be the same without your weekly newspaper.

Socialization In The Online Learning Age The coronavirus pandemic has dramatically changed our way of life. Barber shops, movie theaters and restaurants have been temporarily closed, leaving many stranded in their homes with few social outlets. Personally, the most significant development of the pandemic occurred, when Governor Andrew Cuomo announced that all New York schools will be closed for the rest of the year. As a student, this news is particularly upsetting; school has always been a consistent outlet for important social interactions. Students go to school to learn several topics. These include math, science, social studies and more. Yet one topic that cannot be learned in a textbook is the art of socialization. Right now, students are being deprived of valuable face to face interactions, which can

SCHREIBER HIGH SCHOOL Charlie Mark

negatively impact their academic performance and mental state. With this being said, an issue which has crossed my mind, along with those of numerous educational professionals, is how schools will continue to promote social interactions despite being closed. Currently, classes are taking place

on multiple communication platforms, such as Zoom and Google Meet. While these classes are valuable in that students get to speak to their peers, they do not necessarily equate to the interaction’s students used to have. Surely, online learning could never fully replicate the magic of person to person socialization. However, to a certain extent, schools can preserve the interactions they once provided. In school, students work together on projects, team-building exercises, and much more. The purpose of this is to help students meet new people, build friendships, and make memories. There is no reason why this process cannot be re-created through online learning. In Zoom, there is a feature called “breakout rooms,” which allow teams of students to

breakout into small groups to collaborate on in-class projects. There is a similar feature in Google Meet. With regards to student socialization, these breakout sessions are very valuable. They encourage friendly conversation, teamwork, and help create a desirable online learning environment. How schools will support meaningful interactions between students during the pandemic does not foster an easy answer. One thing, though, is for sure: there are resources which can turn an online classroom into a hotspot for socialization. —Charlie Mark has been a reporter for the Port Washington News since 2018, mainly covering high school sports.

My husband, John Ferrante and I, are proud to have provided both meals and snacks to the hospital through our program called “Do Good To Feel Good.” Besides providing food to those who need and those we want to thank during this COVID-19 crisis, we want to inspire others to also do some good to make themselves feel good.

I am so happy to introduce a group of ER nurses who were so inspired by the outpouring of support shown to them that they have started donating to both the high school food pantry and the Do Good To Feel Good program. Much sincere thanks to Amanda Sclafani and her co-workers including Diane Paez, Danielle Frantino, Tracy Mastakouris, Marcos Rivera and Jessica Sidle. Secondly, the entire medical, administrative and ancillary staff of Glen Cove Hospital should be congratulated on being one of the few hospitals, including another Northwell Hospital, Syosset Hospital, for being permitted to start performing elective as well as emergency surgery again this week. —Dr. Eve Lupenko Ferrante, Voluntary attending staff, Glen Cove Hospital and City Councilwoman

Spring Is The Perfect Time To Make Plans To Reveal The Body You’ve Always Wanted. needs and concerns. More and more women are having children later in life and their bodies do not bounce back they way they did when they were younger, or after their first pregnancy. Although diet and exercise are essential, areas such as the lower abdomen where the skin has been stretched and the skin collapses may never return to “normal”. A tummy tuck tightens the abdominal muscle and the skin of both the lower and upper abdomen. The effects on breasts are no less dramatic. This can be improved with breast implants, a breast lift and sometimes a combination of both. Lastly, Coolsculpt gets rid of excess fat quickly, efficiently, and with little pain. Although liposuction can be used for the reduction of fat in the abdomen, it is also very effective on areas such as the hips, thighs and knees. A combination of these procedures will produce the perfect post-pregnancy result you are seeking. The best candidates for plastic surgery are those who want to look their best by improving upon their natural beauty, while at the same time maintaining realistic expectations. Remember it is the proper mix of procedures that guarantees a successful improvement in appearance, while removing the signs of aging. What better time than Spring to get back into your ideal summer shape?

Spring is here and time to start to plan for shorts and halters and of course bathing suit season is right around the corner. Now is the time to consider that cosmetic surgery procedure that will have you looking your best when summer arrives. Many of my patients tell me that they are anxious to improve their look and unveil a new body in time for Memorial Day. There are many procedures available to meet each person’s unique considerations and desires. Individualized evaluation and assessment will determine which procedures would provide the most improvement. Whether opting for breast augmentation, breast lift, tummy tuck, liposuction or a combination of the above, the result should be a beautiful and natural look. This is especially true for women who have had children and would like to turn back the hands of time and have their pre-pregnancy figure back. The tremendous growth in popularity of the Mommy Make-Over Package provides ongoing assurance that women seeing the effects of pregnancy are especially interested in taking action to improve their look. In particular, the input that I have received from new mothers concerned about the physical changes that resulted from pregnancy, has encouraged me to specifically address their

Manhasset Quintet Honored By Lincoln Center Music Society

ive Manhasset Secondary School musicians were selected as finalists in the Long Island Regional Division of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center’s Young Musicians Program. The students performed together at the Krasnoff Theater at the LIU Post Tilles Center in February. Kudos to the quintet of Marco Chen (piano), Justin Liu (violin), Marco Motroni (violin), Gabriel Song (viola) and Dylan Wu (cello) who performed Antonin Dvorak’s Piano Quintet No. 2 in A major, Op. 81, B. 155, Movement 1. They had a chamber music coaching session with Chamber Music Society artist Mihai Marica prior to their performance. Students were selected from across Long Island as part of four regional competitions (Connecticut, Long Island, New Jersey and New York City) sponsored by the Chamber Music Society. Groups from each region will be selected to perform at Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall at a future date (initial concert was rescheduled from April due to the COVID-19 outbreak). The Manhasset quintet members all perform for the Manhasset Secondary School Symphonic Orchestra. “It has been a delight to watch this talented quintet get to this point in their musical journey,” Manhasset Secondary School Symphonic Orchestra director Caroline Shyr said. “Individually, they are great musicians, but together, they create some of the most passionate and mature chamber music I have heard in my 14 years at Manhasset. I am elated and so proud of how they represented Manhasset and all of Long Island at the regionals performance.” The Young Musicians Program provides an opportunity for advanced high school instrumentalists to perform in a concert professionally produced by the Chamber Music Society at professional home-region venues and at Lincoln Center. High school student chamber music ensembles are invited to submit applications through their school music department to be considered for participation. —Submitted by Manhasset School District

Farmingdale High School Robotics Team Prints 3D Masks

he Farmingdale High School (FHS) science department and robotics team are collaborating on a new project—3D printed face masks for healthcare workers. Last week, science teacher/VEX Robotics coach Ann Grady and VEX volunteer and team mentor Jerry Dubuke donated 20 plastic masks to Catholic Health Services that were created on a 3D printer. The FHS Robotics Team provided the revenue for the materials, using funds generated from the January tournament they hosted at FHS and through community sponsors. When schools shut down in March, teachers were instructed to bring home resources that could be used for remote learning. “By that time, the team was already trying to figure out what we could do to help,” Grady said. She and Dubuke added the 3D printer (recently installed in the new STEAM workspace in the high school) to their take-home supplies, and went to work researching a mask design that would help healthcare workers. After some troubleshooting and tweaking of the design, they began printing the Montana Mask, which was developed by a dental practice.

“We wanted to make reusable stuff so the healthcare workers could conserve what supplies they had,” Grady said. “This mask needs only a small section of N95 fabric that can be replaced, thereby getting multiple uses from each medical mask. It takes 12 hours to print two masks and it’s tricky. You need to be on top of the printer, make sure you always have enough plastic loaded, and begin it at a time that doesn’t have you up in the middle of the night.” In addition to her around-theclock printing, Grady is also remotely teaching 60 science class students, so sleep is important. She had purchased a small supply of the N95 fabric before the pandemic, but is already running low. “Healthcare systems understandably have priority access to the N95 fabric.” Grady said. “We intend to keep making them, but there have been some delays in getting the plastic and the elastic delivered. We are also waiting on feedback to see if our design is practical, or if it needs any tweaking.” “Our students have learned to consider how they can help others in moments of crisis, which is a lesson you want taught before adulthood,”

DINING The House That Steak Built

The classic steakhouse order—steak, potatoes, creamed spinach and a stiff drink—have barely changed at all throughout the last century. Sure, other sacrilege menu accouterments like mashed cauliflower or parsnips have sneaked onto the menu, but by and large that time-tested order is still readily available. Americans still herd themselves to these establishments, regardless of any doctor’s order of “you need to eat less red meat.” And never mind if the steakhouse is an upscale restaurant with white linens and (for some reason) an all-male wait staff or a neighborhood favorite that still rocks the same decor from 1970s—the American institution that is the steakhouse and its most popular menu item is and will forever be a status symbol that we all strive to attain at one time or another. The first eateries that can be linked to what we call a steakhouse originated 1

1. Tomahawk Steak Perhaps the manliest of steak cuts, this marbled and moist gem of the steer owes its rich, intense flavor to the intact rib bone. This particular cut is a bone-in rib-eye steak that is so big, you can easily feed two or more people with it. 4

in New York City in the mid-19th century. These two supper club-type places—chophouses and beefsteak banquets—served meat of varying quality to clientele that ranged from the politically connected upper crust to the blue collar working man. Beefsteak banquets were for men only and essentially served as fundraisers for elected officials. They served beef tenderloin with slices of white bread—though no one actually ate the white bread. Chophouses, on the other hand, served local merchants and anyone else in need of a hot meal. These were dimly lit establishments, with sawdust piled on the creaking wooden floors and a thick haze of smoke forever billowing overhead. There were, indeed, beefsteaks on the menu, but also thick strips of bacon, lamb kidneys and mutton chops, along with baked potatoes and plenty of warm ale. But times changed and as society grew more civilized, so did its steakhouses. In fact, some of the oldest restaurants operating in the country are steakhouses. The Old Homestead of the city’s Meatpacking 2

2. T-Bone Steak This cut is so true-blue American that it’s hard to picture the American flag without picturing it eating a T-Bone steak. (Am I the only one that pictures that?) That T-shaped bone separates the strip and the tenderloin muscles. 5

District started serving charcoal broiled strip steak nearly 160 years ago and is still going strong today. And that’s not the only long-standing steak hall in New York— there’s also Keens Steakhouse, The Palm, and, of course, the legendary Peter Luger in Brooklyn.

Cuts Above

Most steak aficionados say that there are only two ways to enjoy a steak—rare and medium rare. While I personally agree with this assertion, if you are the type of person who prefers medium-well or (gasp) a well-done steak, I’m not going to agree with you, but I will defend your right to destroy a beautiful piece of meat with your wrongheaded temperature requirements. God bless America. A quick dip into the world of Internet research renders multiple answers to the question, “How many types of steak are there?” So instead of seeking to answer a question that no one asked, let’s instead examine the top five most important cuts of steak. 3

3. Porterhouse Steak The same cut as the T-bone, but it contains a larger portion of filet mignon due to its position on the cow. Many steak lovers hail the porterhouse as the perfect cut, as it brings together the strip steak and tender filet in carnivore harmony. 4. Skirt Steak This slab is cut from the cow’s diaphragm. This is a true “steak lover’s steak” in that while it is not particularly tender, it is one of the most flavorful bites on the entire animal. Any steak maven worth their salt can transform the skirt steak into a culinary dream. 5. Filet Mignon This overrated cut of steak is placed on this list out of sheer obligation. It is flavorless, boring, one-note and lame. Is it tender? Yes. But so is cottage cheese and you don’t see cottage cheese on this list, do you?

Plants That Attract The Birds And Bees Add greenery to support our pollinators

BY KAREN MUSGRAVE

editorial@antonmediagroup.com

Back in health class we learned the importance of the birds and the bees. Their job is to move from plant to plant enjoying pollen while also leaving a little behind to pollinate plants. Without this simple, natural occurrence, we would not have pollinators or many of the plants, fruits and nuts we love. To help keep this fragile ecosystem working, we need to think about how we garden, what we plant and the products we use. To attract more pollinators to your garden, you need to create an environment that nurtures and supports their need for food, water and shelter. Think about which pollinators you want to attract. Butterflies prefer nectar-rich plants for food and leafy plants for shelter during their caterpillar stage.

Birds need plants that produce fruits and berries as well as evergreen plants to hide in and nest. Honeybees use nectar and pollen as their protein, so the more flowers you plant, the better. All pollinators require water, so consider adding a birdbath, fountain or pond as a water source. Here are five plants you can easily find at your local garden center that will attract pollinators to your garden: 1.Bee Balm Also known as monarda, this plant grows 3 to 4 feet tall and features whorled flowers in shades of pink, purple and red. Perfect for a sunny garden. 2.Butterfly Weed This plant is a type of milkweed, native to eastern North America. Butterflies are attracted to its bright orange

flowers and sweet nectar. It grows 2 to 3 feet tall and prefers a sunny spot in the garden. 3.Phlox The star-shaped colorful flowers are a favorite of butterflies and hummingbirds. This versatile plant loves the sun and is available in many colors and sizes. 4.Coneflower One of the most popular summer flowering perennials, coneflower prefers full to part sun. It flowers mid-summer through fall and depending on variety, grows 2 to 4 feet tall. 5. Fruit Trees Apple, plum and cherry trees are a few examples of fruit trees perfect for your home garden and for hungry pollinators. Dwarf varieties that grow up to 15 feet tall are often the best size

for the average Long Island garden. Create an outdoor space that can be enjoyed harmoniously among plants, pollinators, people and pets. Incorporate outdoor seating, bird feeders and houses, planters, statuary, vegetables and herbs. Become one with nature and enjoy what it has to offer to us all.

VETERANS NEWS Celebrating Port Washington’s Veterans

FULL RUN

ue to the coronavirus pandemic, the Memorial Day parade in Port Washington has been canceled. The American Legion and VFW Veterans, with respective Grand Marshals, will be participating in the “Pride in Port Parade” currently scheduled for Sept. 26. In honor of Memorial Day, Anton Media Group is publishing the biographies of this year’s Grand Marshals, James Brew the 2020 American Legion Post 509 Grand Marshal and the Port Washington Veterans of Foreign Wars Henderson-Marino Post 1819 Grand Marshal, Carl J. Lalena. James Brew was born, raised and still resides in Port Washington. He was born April 29, 1933 and is the sixth generation on his father’s side to live here in Port. He has ancestors buried in the small Devoe cemetery on Pleasant Avenue dating back to the 1800s. Jim, as he’s known to most, attended Main Street School from kindergarten through ninth grade and graduated Port Washington High School (now Weber) in 1951. He is the youngest of four brothers, all of whom served in the United States military. He was drafted in 1953 and served two years in the Army serving as corporal. He was based at Fort Dix and worked as a mechanic in the engineer’s motor pool. After discharge, Brew returned to his job with the Town of North Hempstead on the patrol boat for several more years, and then continued to work on Manhasset Bay in various boat yards doing what he loved, which was fiberglass repair work, painting and varnishing boats. He was known on the bay for his talent and precise work. Brew has been an active member of the local Masonic Lodge since 1958 and was the master of the lodge in 1967. He is also a member of the American Legion Post 509. For several years, he had the job of receiving tattered flags to be retired for the post. Brew retired from work at age 71 to help care for his then-ailing wife Nessie. He has a son and daughter. At the wonderful age of 87, Brew still enjoys story telling, gardening and family and is honored to be this year’s grand marshal. The Port Washington Veterans of Foreign Wars Henderson-Marino Post 1819 has selected Carl J. Lalena as this year’s Grand Marshal for the Memorial Day parade. Lalena was born on Sept. 26, 1926 in New York City and raised in what Scott Fitzgerald called the “City of Ashes”—Corona, Queens. After his graduation from Forest Hills High School, Lalena enlisted in the United States Navy in 1944 at the young age of 17. He served two years in the United States Navy as a gunner/machinist and served aboard the SS Philip P. Barbour. He was a young man who served in the South Pacific and received a number of commendations for various naval battles against the Japanese. He received a World War II Victory Medal, Good Conduct Medal, American Theater Medal, Asiatic Pacific Theater Medal and the Philippine Liberation Medal. After serving in the Navy, Lalena became a New York City Detective in the Major Crime Unit in New York City. He retired as a highly respected First Grade Detective. Lalena and his deceased wife, Jean, have three wonderful sons. Dennis is an insurance adjuster/ investigator. Robert, an Air Force veteran, is a chef at a restaurant in Syosset.

LONG ISLAND WEEKLY

Learning From Seasoned Professionals Elisabeth Röhm talks in-depth about her acting career BY CAROLINE RYAN

lisabeth Röhm kicked off her acting career with a four season run on the hit television series Law & Order. Being a young actress on a long-standing television series, Röhm had the opportunity to learn from many seasoned professionals in Hollywood, which she says shaped her career and future as an actress. “I think really what I gained as an actor was a tremendous work ethic of positivity,” Röhm said. “Really servicing the story

and doing the work as an actor for your character and not being so swept up with the fantasy of it all. Because of the fact that my colleagues were Jerry Orbach and Sam Waterston, I mean, those are real actors. I never was in my 20s in environments where I developed bad habits about a sense of entitlement based upon being an actor.” Law & Order was Röhm’s longest appearance on a single television series, which gave her the opportunity to build

long-lasting relationships with many of the cast members. “It’s not like I was working with kids my age,” Röhm said. “I think there is a way of looking at a career like you’re like a lifer. I’m a lifer actor. At the time when I was young enough to develop bad habits, I was lucky to work with such seasoned pros. I think that I got a very strong sense of how to build a character, how to do really deep work and how to have a strong work ethic. But also how to not take it all too seriously

ELISABETH RÖHM from page 32 and have balance in my life, which I think has carried me really far.” In many ways Röhm feels her character on Law & Order, Serena Southerlyn, mimicked her true personality, always wanting to find the good in people, even when she was faced with the realities of crime and violence as a prosecutor. “In my heart there’s this belief that people are good, not that people who do bad things aren’t bad, but that the spirit of human beings in general—that there’s hope for us,” Röhm said. “I think that Serena had that idealism and I do too.” After Law & Order concluded its final season, Waterson wrote a speech commemorating some of the hard work cast members on the show had accomplished throughout the years. “On my last day of work, Sam Waterston wrote a speech. He said, I came into Law & Order with a blow torch of happiness, and I have a child-like enthusiasm for life,” Röhm said. “I like to have fun. I like to treat people kindly. I want to make an impact. I want to make a difference. And I think that I do have that child-like enthusiasm and idealism, and belief in humanity. I’m never surprised when people are kind because I know inside of us is all this hope and desire to evolve and to be happy. That doesn’t mean that there aren’t criminal minds, degradation, despair, poverty and violence.” Appearing in Law & Order and learning from such seasoned professionals at the start of her career allowed Röhm’s acting career to flourish. Since the show concluded 20 years ago, Röhm has landed roles in many movies and television shows including most notably American Hustle, Magnum P.I., Bombshell, Jane the Virgin, NCIS and Heroes. Röhm’s appearance in American Hustle is another career highlight she says. Under the director of David O. Russell, Röhm learned to explore a more creative side and play characters, which are different from her own physical and personal attributes. “I think that shooting American Hustle for me was a really tremendous highlight of my career because of the caliber of direction from David O. Russell and the actors Christian Bell, Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence,” Röhm said. “The level of creativity was on such

a profound level that it was an entirely new experience. I had never really played characters that were so different from me physically. I think learning to really build a character in new a way with David O. Russell really changed my career completely.” Röhm has also recently created Röhm Reveals, an event/series of inspirational conversations, which explore topics like joy, courage, compassion, respect and more. “I’m building these talks called Röhm Reveals,” she said. “They’re panel conversations about how we can fill each other’s cups and stop running on empty and white knuckling it through our lives pretending to be happy, when that doesn’t serve us at all. Instead, let’s tell each other the truth about how we feel about life and how challenging each of our lives has been in different ways so that we can relieve each other of the stress of having to pretend that life is so great. Once we face the truth that life is not great sometimes and life is painful and people hurt us; we were relieved of the pressure of having to live with those secrets. At this age for me to be building those talks, you know, sort of mirrors 20 years ago when I was playing Serena. Serena had an idealism that I still feel is very relatable for me personally.” To listen to previous episodes of Röhm Reveals, visit www.wheninrohm.com/rohm-reveals-03/. Röhm recently finished filming the Lifetime movie Mortal Danger. The movie, which is set to launch later this year, tells the true story of a victim of domestic abuse and her life saving journey to help other women in domestic violence situations. She will also be appearing in a number of films including Notorious Nick, Starbright and Ballbuster, which are currently in the post-production phase. Röhm is also on-set filming a thriller, The Runner, which features a troubled teenager who is forced to go undercover to bring down a dangerous drug king pin. Keeping busy and following her passion for crime series and the law, Röhm is also working with A&E to develop a show which documents true crimes. “I’m very fascinated with criminal cases. I come from a legal family. My dad is a lawyer. So I feel like in a way, I’m an honorary lawyer. If anybody needs any legal advice, I’m available,” Röhm laughed.

New Address, Same Mission For Sarah Grace Foundation

BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

o one should have to outlive their child. But so it went with Matthew and Marissa Weippert, whose then 12-year-old daughter lost her nine-month battle with Acute Lympoblastic Leukemia back in November 2002. Out of the ashes of that tremendous loss came the Sarah Grace Foundation For Children With Cancer, “We were fortunate that we had so much support from family, friends and the community,” Matt Weippert said. “We met so many people along the way that did not have that kind of support system. Afterwards, when we were in that limbo between November when she passed and her March birthday that was coming up, we tried to figure out how to carry on as a family of three [with our son James] instead of as a family of four. Looking back at her journey and our journey, we realized the support that we had and how so many other families didn’t have that support and how they struggled.” The goal of the Hicksville-based nonprofit organization is to improve the quality of life of children with cancer and provide comfort and support to families of children suffering from cancer. Assistance can come in the way of moral support via programs that include holiday parties, ballgame outings and events that allow these immunocompromised children to experience Halloween and the holidays. Financial assistance for families includes meals, groceries and transportation allowances and the unfortunate reality of funeral expenses. Families are vetted through the foundation’s work with social workers and staff of the pediatric oncology departments of Steven and Alexandra Cohen Children’s Medical Center of NY (formerly, Schneider Children’s Hospital), Winthrop, Columbia, Montefiore, NUMC and other area hospitals that help identify these cancer patients, and their families, and provide assistance accordingly. Funeral planning is particularly troublesome for families, given the enormous expense involved for ceremonies like these in this part of the country. It’s a hurdle Weippert is well aware of. “We used to be able to give $1,000

Sarah Grace Foundation volunteers after packing Halloween goodie bags. for a funeral and you get several charities chipping in—and some of the larger organizations give more—it takes that burden off the family,” he said. “Because of lack of funds or trying to stretch the funds—right now we’re averaging about $300 to $350 that we can kick in. It’s tough for us and it hurts the family that we can’t put in more. I have always said that I absolutely cannot imagine anything worse than losing a child and not being able to bury that child. And a lot of the families that we met along

the way didn’t have the resources and struggled.” The foundation raises roughly $50,000 annually and is constantly stretching out these funds to directly help between 100 to 125 families every year. And that doesn’t factor in the hundreds of toys and Halloweenrelated goodie bags sent out to all the area hospitals on Long Island and in New York City. COVID-19 has made the already difficult task of fund raising that much more challenging. The foundation recently canceled its

annual comedy night at the Milleridge Cottage, which generally raises between $10,000 to $15,000. To that end, the nonprofit is finding creative ways to raise money. The most recent event was a Bake Less cake sale. Rather than have someone donate a cake or a recipe, people are instead asked to donate what they think they might have spent to bake a cake. The foundation raised $1,500, a decent result for a first-time attempt. In this new normal, Weippert acknowledges the crucial role social media plays in getting the word out about the foundation. “We’re pretty frugal and able to stretch things pretty well, but it’s all a little bit of a challenge,” he said. “So many things are done through social media campaigns and that’s really the biggest area I struggle with. I’m an older person trying to understand these new ways online and utilizing social media for these kinds of things. I even commented to Marissa that I’d like to hook up with people in their late teens and early twenties that have grown up with this kind of technology and understand the workings and mechanics to help us promote our campaigns.” The latest wrinkle for the foundation is the Weipperts’ decision to move to Central Florida to get away from the cold weather. The foundation will continue to be based in Hicksville, albeit at the new address of 17 E. Old Country Road, Unit B, PMB 202. Its founders will be returning north on a monthly basis to remain involved with the organization and to visit family. “We’re going to be up here for fundraising events and to continue with our volunteer group here,” Weippert said. “We hope to expand upon that [in Florida] and maintain the work that we’re doing based out of Hicksville, because that’s where our hearts are. Our core base is in Hicksville and that’s never going to change. It’s just who we are.” Visit www.thesarahgrace foundation.org or call 516-433-9745 to find out more about the Sarah Grace Foundation.

Nicholas Center Creates Online Environment For Individuals With Autism

earing an abrupt disruption to their daily life could have irreparable harm on their service recipients who heavily rely on structure and predictability, the Nicholas Center took immediate action. “After we announced we would be closed for an indefinite period of time, our staff went home that night. They were tasked with developing lessons that could be delivered remotely within 48 hours,” executive director and co-founder Nicole Sugrue said. “This has been disorienting and stressful for all of us, but even more so for those who can’t quite fully grasp what is happening or cannot express how these changes are impacting them internally.” Since March 18, Nicholas Center’s small team of 35 coordinators and direct support staff went to work to ensure their 90 participants with Autism would have access to a continuum of service. These services would keep them connected to familiar faces and routine. “The participants in our program thrive when they have structure and know what to expect in their

The remote environment offers daily sessions between 10 a.m. and 7:30 p.m., offering up to four different choices per hour. Young adults with autism have immediate access to live sessions so they can continue to build upon work abilities, improve their communication and social skills and explore new learning opportunities. In addition to maintaining their previously acquired vocational knowledge, Nicholas Center staff members have offer guided virtual field trips, exploration of new languages, exercise regimes and more. They’ve included new courses that tech personal health skills such as maintaining social distance, appropriate hand washing and mask care. They also host hours of facilitated online social events. More than 60 of their 90 clients spend hours each day within wellplanned remote lessons designed by their specially trained coordinators and support staff. All sessions are hosted using password protected Zoom rooms, with schedule changes each day to promote variety and maintain enthusiasm. Most classes host up to 8 participants per session and social groups often have as many as 25 participants in attendance. For those who do not prefer group learning, Nicholas Center offers 1 to 1 private sessions. This level of support caters to those who learn best with individualized instruction with minimal distraction. Nicholas Center staff members are also there for parents and caregivers who may be struggling with keeping their special needs child engaged during this challenging time. Sometimes, they simply need emotional support and someone to talk to.

Nicholas Center offers other types of direct services, such as in home care for those in crisis. Staff members have done small tasks, such as setting up a home computer. In addition, staff members have done larger tasks, such as running errands for families who find it difficult to travel out with their son or daughter with autism. Throughout this experience, there have been many new talents revealed and discovered, in both Nicholas Center staff and in those they serve. Some parents thought their child would never respond favorably to online services, but have been delightfully surprised. “As you know, it can be especially difficult for those participants who are accustomed to having a set schedule. This has been challenging for Bryan. We do try to have scheduled activities each day, but the Nicholas Center staff video chats have been wonderful. It provides his day with additional structure, and he is super happy to stay connected with his work friends and staff. It’s amazing to see how Nicholas Center continues to think creatively to keep things going in whatever way possible,” says Liz Salerno, a Nicholas Center parent. Nicholas Center will continue using its remote program to deliver telehealth services for an indefinite period of time. Although there is much uncertainty as to how or when it will begin to reopen, one thing is for sure, Nicholas Center will undoubtedly handle it with great care and thought-keeping the needs of their beneficiaries first.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

When something isn’t working, you alter your frame of reference, finding a way to see things that is helpful, useful and empowering. Your influence will be far-reaching. Your gift for reframing will not only make your life smooth, it will also help others achieve a higher output and better attitude. You’ll train others in your ways and be paid well for it. There’s an adventure to be had not far from where you live. One person’s smile expands your heart so you have room for more love. COPYRIGHT 2020 CREATORS.COM

WORD FIND

This is a theme puzzle with the subject stated below. Find the listed words in the grid. (They may run in any direction but always in a straight line. Some letters are used more than once.) Ring each word as you find it and when you have completed the puzzle, there will be 21 letters left over. They spell out the alternative theme of the puzzle.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Oddly enough, extra information is not always the way to gain knowledge. Sometimes, you know more when you have fewer facts to sort through and stretches of time to mull them over. Do not underestimate your own wisdom. It will be released in different ways and amounts as you sit with questions over many days. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The lighter your attachments, the more graceful you’ll be. This includes attachments to things, people and, especially, to your own mind. Don’t believe everything you think. Not all the thoughts in your head originated there. Much is drifting in from the people you’re close to, the media and the collective unconscious. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There are things happening inside you this week that you don’t have control over, such as involuntary emotions, instincts, impulses, desires and aversions. However, you’ll notice that your control over your own responses to these triggers is even better than usual. It’s a week of making stellar moves. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Context is the biggest contributor to behavior. This should liberate you from making a judgment call about anyone’s personality or character. If you want to accurately predict someone’s next move, look carefully at what that person is dealing with in their life and in the moment of action. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You may be reluctant to get started on a project, but it is in your best interest to act now. Procrastination has a way of creeping into the most pressing endeavors. Don’t let it! This is nothing but fear of the unknown. Tell yourself that the only way to know is to have the experience, and then jump in. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The way to actualization is right there in the first three letters of that word: “act.” You will now become your own vision of future-you by taking the first 12 steps this week. Yes, just a little over two steps a day will get you to a better place -- and fast. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The emotions that tempt you can be extremely fleeting -- something to remain aware of. When you are inside of an emotion, it’s as though it’s the only state there is, and it seems like you will feel that way forever. Not true! This is why it’s very important not to act on feelings alone. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Whatever you do, you’ll have competitors. Even though many people can win at the same time, strategy and strength are still vitally necessary in this week’s endeavors. Good fortune will play a role in your journey, but only because you are also willing to make a plan you can stick to and then work it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your actions won’t lie. They will tell you what are your values. You’ll assess your behaviors and decided on some new ones you’d like to enact. There are many ways to go about making a change, but the one that will be most effective now is to change your priorities and values. Your behavior will follow. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The more material things you have, the more time you’ll spend cleaning, maintaining, storing and caring for those things. What you really want is not a life filled with belongings but rather relationships that give you a sense of belonging. People and experiences make this week wondrous. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You abhor greed, deceit and shallow self-aggrandizement. When you see examples of this, you will not only go the other way, you will also do whatever you can to stop the spread of these attitudes and provide a counterbalance of generosity, compassion, transparency and humility. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You will be keenly aware of how your energy affects those around you. Your posture, choice of words, gestures -- it all makes a difference. Your alertness to exactly what kind of difference that is will help you this week. Sales, friendships, work -- all goes smoothly as you skillfully employ empathy and influence.

Having a men’s team alongside our women’s team is going to add to our overall student athlete experience.” At the moment, the men’s team has yet to name their first head coach, but that person will need certain qualities to meet the task at hand of developing a firstyear ice hockey program from the ground up. “Our new coach is going to require a lot of patience and stick-to-itiveness,” Morgan said. “Certainly, our new coach is going to come in with experience and knowledge that is necessary to lead the development of our new program.
