Drive-By Salute Honors WWII Hicksville Vet BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

Hicksville native Clifford Doering recently got quite the surprise when he was the recipient of a drive-by birthday salute to commemorate his 95th birthday on Sunday, May 17. Arranged by his daughters and Mary Norris, adjutant of the Charles Wagner American Legion Post #421, the World War II veteran was touched to see roughly 30 cars, a number of fire trucks and a squadron of motorcycle riders roll by to pay homage to this U.S. Marine, who saw action in the Battle of Okinawa, which was the last and bloodiest battle of the Pacific War. The proud father of three has lived in Hicksville since 1963, during which time he worked for A&P supermarkets for more than 50 years and he became the oldest living exempt member of the Hicksville Fire Department.

THE CORONAVIRUS - A WORLD IN A CRISIS

New Ground Offers Pandemic Assistance To Veterans

BY JOSEPH WOLKIN

jwolkin@antonmediagroup.com

here were no massive parades held on Long Island this year. There was an obvious shift in the air come Memorial Day 2020. The streets were not packed with veterans, families, bands, children and first responders. Instead, a handful of car parades were held to honor America’s fallen heroes, those who paid the ultimate price for the sake of freedom. But even with a few memorials across Long Island, there was a deeper sense of meaning for this year’s Memorial Day. That’s largely due to the unprecedented impact of the coronavirus pandemic, which has left thousands of Nassau County residents unemployed. And that’s where one organization is stepping in. New Ground, located at 70 Acorn Ln. in Levittown, provides support for veterans upon their return to America, specifically for those who are homeless or on the verge of it. For the last 30 years, the nonprofit does extraordinary work by assisting our nation’s bravest heroes and helping them get back on their feet. “We have been doing a lot more mental health check-ins, specifically for our veterans who feel isolated,” Shannon Boyle, executive director of New Ground Inc., said. “Before this, they might have been going to the VA [Veterans Affairs Medical Center] in Northport a couple of times a week, attending groups and seeing a group of veterans to have a cup of coffee. Now, they’re very isolated and the connection is lost. We’re trying to fill the gap.” The staff of six at New Ground has been on the move throughout the pandemic. From providing digital resources on www.newground.org to constantly answering calls and emails from veterans and their families, the social workers have gone above and beyond their call of duty. Memorial Day is one of the select times that veterans at the forefront of society, and New Ground wants people to know now more than ever is the time to help our veterans. Now is not the time to lose sight of the impact veterans have on our society. One of the most urgent needs that

New Ground received a large donation from Church Unleashed as the organization helps those who are food insecure. (Photo courtesy of New Ground) New Ground currently faces lies in their food pantry, meant for veterans and their families who are facing food insecurity. Throughout the pandemic, New Ground is working with Island Harvest to meet the needs of this community during a time of great need. “The volunteers are doing food drives,” Boyle said. “Instead of people coming in and selecting their items, helping themselves to what they like or prefer, they’re now communicating their needs to the social workers. The social workers are in the office one at a time. They pack up the boxes with food and other essential household items like hygiene supplies. Then, they deliver it. “One of our social workers who did a bunch of deliveries last week was particularly excited because we got a large donation from a supporter who brought fresh items. She was out delivering food throughout the day to veterans, and the hardest part was they all just wanted to hug her.” This is a particularly rough time for homeless veterans. A year ago, Nassau County Legislator Joshua Lafazan (D— Woodbury) introduced a pair of bills in the legislature to tackle veteran homelessness. The Dignity for Our Heroes bills, as he labeled it, will build housing for the veterans who are struggling and will ultimately put

an end to housing discrimination in regards to landlords who often give them issues. “You have 5,000 veterans in Nassau County who are homeless, about to be homeless or are housing insecure,” Lafazan said. “I passed the Dignity for Our Heroes package to build housing for these veterans in Nassau County. There’s a committee exploring potential site locations to build the structure. I want to make sure the structure gets built, that it gets built well and every veteran who is homeless in Nassau County has a roof over their head.” Throughout the pandemic, New Ground has been receiving plenty of calls, not just about housing issues, but regarding food insecurity as well. “Right now, our food pantry in the office is closed to the public,” Boyle said. “We’re one of the nonprofits that receive support from Island Harvest, so we’re in touch with them on a regular basis to provide an up-to-date list of food pantries. If we’re getting veterans calling directly and looking for support, we take steps to connect them with any other resources that might be needed.” With Island Harvest also seeing a surge in requests for its food pantry service, New Ground’s Nassau County supporters have stepped up in more ways than one.

“We would not exist if it was not for our supporters, quite frankly,” Boyle said. “We receive very little government funding. The rest is all fundraising. They have blown us away with the amount of support, outreach and donations that we’ve been receiving. We know this is an extremely rough economic time for everybody, but we have people donating at all different levels.” New Ground is helping veterans who are homeless by putting them in contact with the Northport VA. The Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH) program enables the veterans who are having housing issues to decrease the number of homeless veterans on Long Island. And New Ground, which can work with 50 veterans and an additional 25 families at any given time, is ready to do whatever it takes to help those who need it in a number of ways. Contact New Ground at www. newground.org or send an email to info@newground.org if you are in need during this time, know someone who needs assistance or if you want to volunteer.

Long Island Closer To Reopening After State Loosens Guidelines

BY MIKE ADAMS

change in the way New York State is measuring its guidelines for tracking COVID-19 hospitalization and hospital deaths may allow Long Island to begin reopening sooner than it would have been able to otherwise. On Sunday, May 17, the state announced that any region that has seen an average of fewer than five hospital deaths a day over a three-day period or a 14-day decline in hospital deaths will have fulfilled the second of the state’s seven requirements a region must meet to enter phase one of the reopening process. Prior to Sunday, the averages had been recorded from the beginning of March to the expiration date of the NY on PAUSE Act on May 15, but now any three-day period following May 15 will satisfy the requirement as well. That revision allowed Western New York and the Capital Region to begin reopening procedures, where before they had been unable to do so because of spikes in deaths they saw weeks prior. As of May 19, the Long Island Region

Seven of the 10 regions the state has been divided into for reopening purposes have achieved all seven, and of the remaining three Long Island is tied with New York city for the fewest guidelines hit. As recently as May 14, Long Island was recorded as having met five of seven guidelines, although that number was revised to four after the state realized county officials had counted Cuomo’s expectation that Nassau and Suffolk would have enough contact tracers as if it fulfilled the contact tracer requirement. Each county needs 30 contact tracers per 100,000 residents, which works out As of May 19, the state recorded Long Island as having met four of the to a bit more than 400 for each.

Hail The Hicksville Hero

BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

hen Clifford Doering served in World War II, he was a kid. In May 1945, Doering saw combat as a U.S. Marine in the infamous Battle of Okinawa, the last and bloodiest battle of the Pacific War. May 19 was also the longtime Hicksville resident’s 95th birthday. To that end, the daughters of this father of three, with help from the local community, staged a drive-by birthday salute honoring the Queens native’s significant milestones. The turnout yielded a 30-car caravan and also included representation from the Charles Wagner American Legion Post #421 (which also helped arrange the parade), the Hicksville Fire Department (where Doering is the oldest living exempt member) and 50-odd bikers, many of whom were the birthday boy’s fellow Marines. This heartwarming spectacle also featured contributions from the local Staples, which donated posters and banners, one with Doering’s picture on it that hung off the side of a fire truck. For youngest daughter Christine Paradiso, the turnout was not only a surprise for

her father, but significantly uplifting for her gregarious dad, who had to curtail his daily walk to the Bagel Boss for coffee in addition to not being able to see his children, grandchildren and American Legion and VFW comrades. “He couldn’t believe that all these people came out to see him and he was really overwhelmed,” Paradiso explained. “I have never seen him stand up so fast

as when he saw the parade coming down the street and he went to stand at attention when his fellow Marines were marching towards him. I watched it over and over again. Usually, he rocks a little bit to get his momentum and it helps him to rise. But boom—he just stood straight up. I’ll probably hear more about it as the days pass. After it was done, he just had to sit inside with his thoughts. Today was priceless.” Doering found himself humbled by the turnout. “Marines always stick together,” he said. “A lot of these guys didn’t even know who I was.” Daughter Mary Ann Doering was equally surprised by the community response. “The turnout was way above our expectations,” she said. “My father loves this country and all who defend it. Nothing makes him happier than to see the American flag and veterans being honored.” While the elder Doering is the second youngest of eight siblings born and raised in Jamaica, Queens, his Hicksville roots run deep having bought his current home back in 1962. His late spouse, Irene Manelski Doering, who passed away in October

2015 at age 92, was the daughter of Hicksville potato farmers Andrew and Mary Manelski and was born in their farmhouse on Woodbury Road in 1923. Clifford Doering raised his daughters and son Dennis while working as a clerk and painter for the A&P supermarket chain. He is the flesh and blood representation of what was a Long Island norm—that of a solid middle class life. “[My papa] had many side jobs, but A&P was his one steady job that he worked for about 50 years,” Paradiso explained. “I think it was his first job when he came out of the service and he retired when the norm was that you could have your home paid off by the time you were 65 and were going to retire with a pension. My mother was a stay-at-home mom and there was one car to the family. There was one TV in the home and that was it. Those were simple times.” For Doering’s family, this drive-by parade could not have come at a better time, given the isolation the public is having to endure. “My father has been so isolated, which is tough given that he’s such a social human being,” Paradiso said. “He’ll slip into a depression if this goes on much longer. Little by little, you could see that he’s asking when this is going to end because he hasn’t been going out with his friends or seeing everyone. Just this one thing is going to carry him over for weeks. Weeks. It’s totally worth it.” Sibling Mary Ann added, “After two months of quarantine, this event was a huge morale booster for him and I think for everyone involved. For two hours, it gave us a sense of normalcy and joy in these very abnormal times.” Visit www.hicksvillenews.com to read a longer version of this story.

Roslyn Student Raises Money For Northwell Through Tutoring BY MIKE ADAMS

madams@antonmediagroup.com

ike a lot of eighth graders, Roslyn Middle School student Jacob Gross found himself battling boredom as his family’s pandemic-induced social distancing began to stretch on from days to weeks. Luckily for Gross, he had some skills he could put to use besides his ability to watch Netflix, mainly a talent for math and a desire to do good for his community. “I wanted to have something to do during the day other than just sitting around,” Gross said. “I love math, so I thought I could help other kids and kids my age.” For about a month now, Gross has been helping a number of students in grades K-8 hone their mathematics skills through an online-based tutoring platform he created called Tutor For A Cause. For $30 an hour (with lower rates for lower amounts of time) K-8 students can book Gross to help them with whatever math topics they’re struggling to master.

Gross creates individualized learning packets for each of his students, and supplements their lessons with

videos and assignments off of Khan Academy, the online math learning website that gave him the inspiration to put the Tutor For A Cause site together. “He never formalized any sort of tutoring business before this, but he really enjoys it and he really takes it seriously,” Jacob’s mother Danielle Gross said. “He really devotes a lot of his time, he takes three to four hours a day where he could do anything else and devotes it to this. He makes packets that he customizes based on what the parents tell him to do, and he annotates them and makes it fun. He really has a heart of gold.” Even with all the effort Gross has put into his newfound tutoring business, which he said has brought in about 10 children who are regulars of his at this point, he hasn’t taken a single cent for himself. Instead, Gross is donating all proceeds from Tutor For A Cause to Northwell Health to aid the organization in its work to help treat those stricken with COVID-19. The satisfaction of knowing he’s made

a positive difference is compensation enough for the young man. “It feels very good because I know I’m helping people,” Gross said. “It sorts of helps everybody because maybe we’ll be able to go back to school and not social distance anymore.” Since the website went live about a month ago, Gross has raised more than $1,300 for Northwell’s facilities throughout the area. Anybody looking for a math tutor can visit www.tutorforacause.com to see about booking Gross, who plans to continue tutoring through the summer, to help their K-8 student.

The New York State Court of Appeals upheld the state Supreme Court’s verdict allowing Great Neck resident and Democratic candidate for New York’s Third Congressional District Michael Weinstock to appear on the ballot in the Democratic primary after an opponent in the election challenged the legitimacy of the signatures he collected. State election law requires that a congressional candidate running in a district submit signatures collected for 375 residents of that district in order to have their name appear on the ballot. Joshua Sauberman, a formal competitor for the third district seat who now supports Melanie D’Arrigo’s bid for the office, submitted a challenge contending that a number of Weinstock’s supporting signatures (his campaign said he submitted twice the required amount) were not collected from district residents. The charges were dismissed by the Supreme Court, a move the appellate court upheld, on the grounds that Sauberman had not served the complaints within the required timespan or by proper methods, using express mail instead of the certified mail required by the process.

Sauberman’s council also served Weinstock on a Saturday, a violation of state law since Weinstock is an observant Jew. Sauberman’s team attempted to argue that Weinstock was, in fact, not observant, which led to Weinstock having to present evidence that he has a history of not conducting business matters on the Sabbath, among other things. “I’m elated that the court ruled in my favor,” Weinstock said. “I can tell the story now in a lighthearted way, but it was very anxiety-producing to have to prepare for these hearings. Being Jewish is one of the cornerstones of my life.”

Feeding Our Frontline Workers Mineola Middle School makes generous breakfast donation to NYU Winthrop BY ANTHONY MURRAY

t’s no secret that the power of food can bring people together and that is exactly the case when teachers and administrators from Mineola Middle School banded together to support the frontline workers at NYU Winthrop Hospital with a bagel breakfast, which was supplied by My Three Sons Bagel Cafe in Garden City South. “The Mineola Teachers [Association] (MTA) has reps in each building,” said Ilyse Milberg, who is a seventh grade teacher at Mineola Middle School. “The reps from the middle school, Lisa Rivera, Annmarie Palumbo, Tammy Sobel and I decided to reach out to the teachers, staff and administrators in the building to see if they were interested in participating in a collection to donate food to Winthrop. The response was overwhelming. As soon as the email went out, donations started pouring in. We far surpassed our expectations. At the same time, our hospitality committee, run by Deborah Doherty and Marie Soper, were planning to provide a bagel breakfast using our hospitality

and the hospital workers had been working crazy hours and were tired and scared,” she explained. “It was great to do something to help them in any way we could. It is amazing to work with a group of people who are so passionate about what they do and so connected to the students and families in the Mineola. It is our pleasure to give back to Mineola because we have gotten so much from being part of this community.” So why does Milberg and the other teachers and administrators feel that it’s important to give back to others? “Mineola has given so much to the A bagel breakfast was delivered to NYU Winthrop Hospital from the school community and we as teachMineola Middle School.

SYOSSET Every employee of Northwell Health was enriched last week thanks to the overwhelming generosity and love demonstrated by 7-year-old Syosset native Desiree Mohammodi. She decided that she had to do something to ease the burdens of health care workers at Northwell Health. So she emptied her piggy bank of the $52.65 (yes, she counted each penny herself) that constituted her life savings, and sat down to write a letter to Michael Dowling, president and CEO of Northwell. During a virtual press event held at Northwell’s headquarters, Dowling listened as Mohammodi read her letter and presented him with a small, but heavy bucket, which was filled with $52.65 in loose change. “Because we think Desiree is a true superhero, we want to give her a special thank-you,” he said, presenting the clearly surprised young lady with an American Girl doll almost as tall as she was, and a working telescope. “Here at Northwell, we believe that now more than ever, the generosity and compassion of one special little girl should be rewarded.” MANHASSET On June 5, Sister Kelly Quinn, the Principal of Our Lady of Grace Montessori School—an independent Catholic preschool and elementary school will be completing a 10-mile walk around the school’s Manhasset neighborhood.

The Coronavirus Pandemic And Shavuot: A Time For Transformation I was reading the New York Times best-selling motivational book Who Moved My Cheese by Dr. Spencer Johnson, a fabled metaphor about four characters, two mice and two small people, approach to life’s “maze” of obstacles in search of their “cheese.” The cheese is the symbolism for a personal goal like money, faith or love. The simplistic moral is about facing life boldly, looking fear in the eye, thinking outside the box and adapting to change. In the foreword, A.J. Cronin writes, “Life is not straight, but a maze of passages. But always, if we have faith, the Creator will open a door that will ultimately prove good for us.” While being in self-quarantine, I read an inspiring book called You Can Heal Your Life by Louise L. Hay, of blessed memory. She was a best-selling author and an internationally known leader in the self-help field. Her key message is: “If we are willing to do the mental work, almost anything can be healed.” Hay wrote, “What we think about ourselves becomes the truth for us. I believe that everyone, myself included, is responsible for everything in our lives, the best and the worst. Every thought we think is creating our future. Each one of us creates our experiences by our thoughts and our feelings. The thoughts we think and the words we speak create our experiences.” After reading her book, the obvious conclusion is that bad events like the coronavirus,

the ancient Israelites exodus from Egypt and the receiving of the Torah. Former slaves, who could only imagine the Almighty in their hearts, heard the voice of our heavenly father as he gave forth the laws of ethical and moral conduct, thereby changing human behavior and civilization forever. Many traditional customs have been attributed to the festival of Shavuot, like eating sweet dairy foods, such as cheese cake and ice cream. Because so, perhaps the Biblical prophet Samuel, the author of the Book of Ruth, should have called Dr. Johnson’s book Who Moved My Cheese Cake? since it describes the journey of four characters, Naomi, Ruth, Orpah and Boaz and their epic transformations following obstacles that tested faith, logic and emotions. In my book, Ruth Talk: Questions and Answers on the Book of Ruth, I explore this powerful account of self-transformation with lessons of kindness, humility, choices and revelations that inspire us to improve our lives and the world in which we live. In this challenging time, we need to create our own “cheesecake,” by increasing our faith, our kindness, and our eternal gratitude. Internalizing these will reap great rewards as we emerge a better people and a better world, and prove that we can have our cheesecake, and eat it, too. Let us all pray together for healing, love and peace.

ALEC BENJAMIN from page 17 didn’t have to go to school to do it,” Benjamin said. “That probably was the biggest one. I think I learned how to play guitar because there was a girl I liked and I wanted to impress her. It was just a lot of different reasons, but there was enough to convince me to do it for my career. But really I don’t know what else I would do, so there were also a lack of options.” Benjamin is also inspired by good company drawing musical inspiration from the likes of music legends Billy Joel, Paul Simon and Jason Mraz. “I like a lot of different artists, but when I was really little I listened to the Beach Boys, so I wouldn’t cite them as a direct influence, but they did have some influence on me in some ways,” he said. “I love a lot of singer-songwriters and people who write lyrics that tell stories. I like Billy Joel, Paul Simon, John Mayer and Jason Mraz—that kind of music is what I liked the most because I’m more impressed by poetry, which really captivates me. I think if music didn’t have lyrics it probably wouldn’t have interested me as much.” For quite sometime, Benjamin has been hard at work putting together his debut album, which he said was a long process to create. “It was a long process, but it was similar to a lot of the other music I made,” Benjamin said. “I just keep writing songs until I feel like I have two or three songs that I’m really proud of and then I try to make the rest of them around those three songs. So for me it started with a song called ‘Jesus in LA’ and then there was a song called ‘Must’ve Been The Wind,’ and finally I had a song called ‘Mind Is A Prison.’” Those were my first three songs where I could really try to build [an album] around.” A lot of Benjamin’s songs are about self-reflection and this album is no exception. All you need to do is just listen to understand Benjamin. “I just sometimes feel like I’m stuck inside my own head and I’m my own worst enemy,” Benjamin said about the writing process of “Mind Is A Prison.” “So I just sort of thought that it would be a good thing to talk about. I was writing one day and a term or the phrase mind is a prison came up and I just made a song about that. That’s how it happens. I wrote the chorus first and then the verses.” Like any true artist, Benjamin also uses his music as an outlet to express

the ones that made the donation and that was really cool. But it was fun to do. I like to play music, so if I get to play music and then also raise money for people who are struggling, why not?” In the end, all Benjamin wants to accomplish with his music is make people think more about what they’re listening to. “I just want to make music that I feel is meaningful,” he said. “Also, obviously music is entertainment, but it also isn’t because when you say entertainment it makes it sound so trivial. I think there is art that is somewhat trivial, but everything serves its own purpose. I think art is just not always just entertainment. You can learn a lot from it and I like to make art that has something and it’s not just about being entertained. I want to make art that makes people think. Sometimes there’s a balance between that because making art that makes people think is not always the song that people are streaming over and over again, but you don’t necessarily have to sing a song over and over again for it to have an impact on you. My song ‘Stan’ is not my number one most listened to song in general, but it’s the song that has the biggest impact on me of every song I’ve ever heard. I just think it’s difficult to quantify what it means to reach somebody. I think numbers are so weird when you see Spotify.

Positive Effects Of Pets On Mental Health BY CYNDI ZAWESKI

czaweski@antonmediagroup.com

ets parents know how much joy their companionship brings, but did you know having a furry friend is scientifically proven to boost your mental health? Research has shown that pet owners are less likely to suffer from depression than those without pets. Studies also suggest that playing with your pet can make you feel calmer because the act elevates levels of serotonin and dopamine. The truth is they are just as good for our mental health as we are for their physical health. Jessica Kirk, who graduated in 2006 from North Dakota State University with her bachelor’s degree in animal science and received her doctorate of veterinary medicine from the University of Minnesota-St. Paul in 2011, helps explain the science behind the positive effects pets have on mental health.

her two Boston Terriers, Pipsqueak and Thelma, and her horse, Scuba. “These studies show that pets may help decrease stress, anxiety and/or depression in human populations. Many pet owners, myself included, would agree that their pets have decreased their stress or anxiety in their lives.”

Decreases Stress “There are a plethora of studies that have been conducted reporting the positive effects that our pets have on mental health and wellness,” said Kirk, who lives outside of Atlanta with

are wanted and needed by someone—someone who likely has fur, scales, feathers or even hooves.” Decreases Loneliness “If you are a pet owner and feeling lonely, you already know that one of the best feelings is coming home to

your pet—their constant companionship is unconditional,” she said. “You have a buddy to talk to, who will listen to you, who can be your walking partner, they can even be your wing-man at social gatherings.” Accountability Partners “Pets are also very good at keeping schedules,” Kirk said. “For those of us lacking the drive to keep up a schedule, your pet may very well likely let you know when it’s time to play, time to eat dinner, time for bed or time to start your day.”

Give us Unconditional Love “I think that most pet owners will agree that pets give us unconditional love,” Kirk said. “They love us when we don’t deserve it, when we don’t expect it and even when we don’t think we need it. Our pets know us so well and we should be so thankful for all the love and support that they give us in our daily lives.” What to learn more?

t this point in May, parents are typically planning graduation parties and researching summer camp that will enrich their children over break. The current state of the COVID-19 pandemic has thrown those plans for a loop—to say the least. While the NY on PAUSE stay-athome mandates are ever slowly lifting, it remains unclear (as of the date of this publication) if summer camps will physically open in 2020. Nassau County Executive Laura Curran’s office stated that local officials are waiting on guidance from New York State before making a decision about opening summer camps. Local camp operators remain optimistic that there will be some return to normalcy. But just in case, there are several programs offering online summer programs that are both fun

Self-Care During COVID-19

How parents can manage stress during the pandemic

n the age of COVID-19, parents have more responsibilities and stress than ever before. Many are expected to parent full time, work full time and teach full time—all at the same time. This does not leave much leftover time, or energy, for self-care. However, more than ever, this is the time to make a conscious effort to practice self-care.

Here are some tips:

Realistic Expectations: This is the time to challenge your perfectionism and self-criticism. Anxiety is high, the future is uncertain, and the many tasks and roles parents are forced to balance leave everyone exhausted. Be kind to yourself if you do not cross off every item on your to do list, or if you do not complete a project in the exact way you envisioned. You’re doing the best you can right now, and the best you can is good enough. Media Diet: The news can make us feel anxious and overwhelmed. Set boundaries around how much news you will consume. Decide how often you will tune into current events.

PARENTING MATTERS Graziella Simonetti Consider one daily update from a trusted public health official or a set number of times per week you will watch the news. Be mindful of how you feel when you peruse social media. Comparing ourselves to how others are doing (or how they project that they are doing) makes us feel depressed and stressed. Regardless of whether or not others inflate how well they are handling home-schooling or their relationships during lockdown, we may assume others have it all together while we are struggling to keep our heads above water. This makes us feel inadequate by comparison and leads to increased depression and anxiety. Limiting social media use can lead to

greater happiness. Time Alone: Your old routine may have allowed for an opportunity to recharge through some alone time. Whether via a commute, a night out, your children being at school or even running an errand, those moments do not exist during this time. We need to be more intentional and purposeful in creating space for ourselves. Find small opportunities, such as taking a warm bath, reading a book when the children go to sleep or a solo walk when the children are in the safe care of another adult. Parents have no healthy time apart from their children, and creating these small moments can help us refuel. Make healthy choices when possible: Workout outside when safe. Use online videos to try new forms of exercise. Healthy choices include emotional choices, as well. Set boundaries with people who make your anxiety rise with their own worried feelings and worst case scenarios. Meditate and practice mindfulness. Use Technology: Fill your cup up

through social interactions using technology. Organize virtual calls with friends. Virtual game nights are a fun way to connect with others. Consider joining a book club over video chat or connect with spiritual/ religious groups that meet virtually. Self-care will not only help calm you during this destabilizing time, it can also help you find the physical and emotional energy needed to best support your family. When you feel tapped out, it can feel nearly impossible to give others any attention or energy. When you practice self-care, it won’t just help you feel better, your whole family will feel better, too. Graziella Simonetti is a parenting coach with Parenting Pals (yourparentingpals@gmail.com) and works as an early childhood social worker for the New York City Department of Education. She holds an advanced certificate in parent education from Adelphi University and is a NYSPEP credentialed Parenting Educator. Simonetti is a former kindergarten teacher and the mother of a toddler.

Looking Ahead

Colleges plan for the fall semester BY CYNDI ZAWESKI

czaweski@antonmediagroup.com

ess than four months out from the start of the fall semester, Long Island colleges are weighing all options to accommodate their students safely. Back in March, St. Joseph’s College (SJC) and Molloy College complied with New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s order to practice virtual distance learning through the remainder of the academic year. This remote learning protocol will remain in place through the summer sessions, as administrators await specific guidance from the governor’s office about the higher education aspects of ending NY on Pause. “Every school is waiting for additional guidance, but we already have information on things we have to do, such as social distancing and wearing a face covering,” Molloy’s Vice President for Student Affairs and Dean of Students Janine Biscari said. “We have a plan to have signage on

campus to inform people how to do things safely once they are back on campus.” In the meantime, Molloy and SJC have taken action to outline the fall semester. Donald Boomgaarten, president of St. Joseph’s College, established a special Fall Task Force several weeks ago. Comprised of faculty, staff and administrators, the Task Force is charged with presenting Boomgaarten with a set of options for moving the college forward with instruction and operations for the 2020-21 academic year. The task force is currently examining three possible contingency plans: a return to on-ground education, continuing with remote education or a hybrid option, which would be a combination of in-person and online classes. “We need to make a decision by June about what we are going to do in the fall,” Boomgaarten said. “We need time to plan out the fall course schedules. There are a lot of details involved. All schools will have

Now ever, n a h t e r mo d e e n u yo n w o t e m o h r u o y r! e p a p s new

to make a decision by mid-June, the latest.” Similarly, Molloy’s COVID Task Force, comprised of senior administration representing multiple departments, is preparing its plan for fall, which will be presented to incoming college president Dr. James Lentini by the end of May. Lentini and the school’s board of trustees are also on track to make an announcement about their fall semester plans in June. “We are looking to do as much face-to-face learning as is possible and safe,” Biscari said. “The safety of our community is our number one goal. Our other goal is to keep our students on track to graduate on time. We are prepared to go fully remote. The common option for most schools is going to be a combination, a hybrid model of some face-to-face and some online.” Prior to the crisis, SJC offered 27 fully online courses. The way Boomgaarten views it, SJC as three

campuses: its Brooklyn campus, it’s Patchogue campus and its virtual campus. While Boomgaarten said that in-person education can not be replaced entirely, the school is embracing the increased use of technology to educate students. “If it is possible to open onground, we certainly will, if not, we will be ready with an alternative,” Boomgaarten said. “The courses that we are offering online will have special aspects to them that will make them more robust than a typical online course.” Should the colleges be forced to

remain remote, one challenge would be adapting curricula that require students to complete lab work. With safety and student experience in mind, the SJC’s Task Force members are surveying input from students, faculty and staff to gather more information about possible future steps. “We have to get creative with that and it is one of the things that the task force is working on,” Boomgaarten said. “There has been a conversation about opening up some on-ground facilities while maintaining social distancing. For example, studio classes for students of the arts. I am

not sure if you can fully replace those experiences online.” Another aspect of these college’s COVID-19 contingency plans is on-going financial support. Most higher education instituted received aid through the CARES Act. Molloy has set aside emergency funding for students affected by COVID-19, while SJC instituted a school-wide tuition freeze for all current and incoming students. The freeze locks-in tuition at this year’s current rates. Along with the tuition freeze, SJC recently created a COVID-19 Student Emergency Assistance Fund,

as well as the general SJC Student Emergency Fund. “We recognize that this step is a serious one, as costs incurred by the institution to prepare and support these various modes of learning— including the purchase of new technologies, expenditures for staff and faculty training, and additional labor by all—will be quite high, Boomgaarten wrote in a statement on the college’s website. “We must consider the gravity of the crisis for our entire region when making decisions about the future.” In addition to providing financial

assistance, both schools are currently offering virtual assistance through its career and counseling centers. Molloy counselors have even obtained out-of-state licenses to help their out-of-state students cope. “We encourage students to think about the future and not to let the virus affect their goals for higher education,” Boomgaarten said. “In many ways, the crisis has helped us see what is really important. Living out your dreams and moving forward in life is significant, and students should not give up on their education.”

My Uncle Sammy Note: As we celebrate the Memorial Day holiday with gatherings for friends and family, I’d like to offer this column as my annual tribute to those who serve our country. This is a true story, honoring a group of brave Italian American soldiers in WWII on the 75th anniversary of their mission. The early morning darkness of March 22, 1944, was cloudy, with no moonlight to guide the three inflatable boats carrying 15 United States soldiers and 650 pounds of dynamite on a secret mission, almost 250 miles behind enemy lines on the rocky Ligurian coast near Framura, in occupied Italy. Their mission: to locate and destroy two train tunnels, where the Genoa-La Spieza lines joined together to meet the seashore. These rail lines were the main supply arteries to Anzio. As well-trained soldiers for the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), a precursor to the CIA, these volunteers were chosen for this specific mission because of their Italian heritage and their ability to speak Italian. My father’s oldest brother, my uncle Sammy DiSclafani (his given name was Salvatore), was one of those soldiers. While unable to locate the target on their first attempt in February, additional aerial surveys enabled them to

make this second attempt, dubbed “Ginny II.” Without radar and unable to communicate with the PT boats due to unreliable radio transmissions, the ocean currents diverted the commandos off-course. As if that wasn’t enough, German torpedo boats appeared, forcing the PT boats to vacate their position, abandoning the commandos. Unable to locate their target as dawn approached, they hid in a deserted farmhouse for 24 hours, as per the mission directive. On the morning of March 23, two officers left on a reconnaissance mission for food and information, successfully locating the Genoa-La Spieza target. After coordinating their escape with the PT boats for later that evening, they waited for the darkness to complete their mission.

Although the German officers knew that executing uniformed prisoners of war was a direct violation of the Geneva Convention, they had sworn a loyalty oath to Hitler.

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 28 letters left over. They spell out the alternative theme of the puzzle.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your success secret of the week: You will be easy on the ears. Your voice will be strong, pleasant, clear and seldom used. Verbal economy is not only gracious; it’s smart. It’s the best way to make sure that people actually listen and respond. You will be moved to express what’s thoughtful, relevant and kind. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Never has your five-year goal been more obvious to you than it is this week. Your clear vision for the future will focus you so that it’s easy to know what to do next and, more importantly, what not to do. You’ll ignore distractions until they go away. You will gain momentum, and this will help with your stamina, too. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Some dreams exist outside you. You travel through them as Alice traveled through Wonderland. Some dreams exist inside you, and you don’t travel through them so much as assemble them as you go like you would a cake or story. You’ll explore both types this week; one shapes you, the other gets shaped by you. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Children are urged to be nice to one another. Though once a mature age is reached, such directives are seldom voiced. People should know better, right? They don’t always. Instead of nagging, you’ll be the example that others want to follow. You make kindness look easy (because, to you, it is) and glamorous even! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Friends and supporters are wonderful to have, but there are a lot of things you care more about than popularity. Perhaps this is because social status comes easily to you, especially this week. You don’t have to put on any kind of show to be liked. You are real. You are humble, and you are kind. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). With love comes risk; that’s nonnegotiable. So don’t waste time trying not to get hurt, as emotional pain is unavoidable. Instead, decide who you are willing to be hurt by and agree to the pain when that day comes. Now, forget about all that and soak up the abundant joy radiating from your relationships this week. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The good people aren’t always easy, and easy people aren’t always good. This is no time to bother with assessments or questions like “whom should I choose?” You will learn something valuable from each and every person who comes into your life. It will be fortuitous to take them in the order they show up. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll only involve yourself with people who are nice, generous-spirited, thoughtful, conscious of their own motives and disinclined to wallow in laziness. These are your bare-minimum standards and anything less isn’t worth even one second of your attention, which is more precious than gold. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There’s a time and place for rules of reciprocity; namely, when everyone involved is flush enough to have something extra. That’s when the nuances of fairness and balance begin to matter. Until that time, they don’t at all. You’ll expect nothing in return as you help those in need because it’s the right thing to do. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). No one gets to be in charge of their own reputation; that’s up to other people. What you do have control over is your character, which you’ll spend much of the week refining. And as for the mysterious, shimmering core of you, it remains eternally, gloriously unchanged. Believe it! AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). In some areas, you are miles above the competition. In others, you win by a hair. If it were just about attitude, you’d be in a league of your own. But there is a combination of factors at play. You’ll want to work on your skills this week so the margins aren’t so tight. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). How do you know what’s right? You just do. For now, trust that. Your version of rightness will be different from someone else’s. It will even be different from what you know to be right in August of 2020, and that’s fine. There’s a time to doubt and question and a time to stand and act. You’re in the stand and act phase.
