ANTON MEDIA GROUP STAFF editors@antonmediagroup.com

F

ollowing former District 3 Congressman George Santos’ expulsion from the U.S. House of Representatives, a special election will be held on Feb. 13, 2024 to fill the vacancy.

Nassau County Legislator Mazi Melesa Pilip (REP) and Former United States Representative Tom Suozzi (DEM) are running for the seat in Congress.

Mazi Melesa Pilip (REP)

The daughter of Orthodox Jewish parents, Mazi Melesa Pilip grew up in a rural village in Ethiopia. At the age of 12, Pilip immigrated to Israel with her family and later entered the Israel Defense Force (IDF). Following her military service, Pilip earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of Haifa and a master’s degree from Tel Aviv University.

After defending Israel’s freedom and attending college, Pilip immigrated to the United States and settled in Great Neck, where she would commit herself to giving back to her community and neighbors.

Pilip was elected as the candidate of the Republican and Conservative parties to the Nassau County Legislature in 2021 and was re-elected in 2023.

As a member of the County Legislature, Pilip has made the revitalization of the broader Great Neck community a top priority, along with investments in public safety, access to quality health care and combatting antisemitism. Pilip and her husband, Adalbert, are the proud parents to their seven children. Learn more at maziforny.com

Q A

How are you going to repair constituents’ trust in the office?

“When somebody’s telling one thing, and then you’re finding so many other things, it is annoying, and unfortunately, there’s people like this. But now they see a mother of seven children who cares about this country, and I’m here to serve the people. I’m not looking for titles. I’m doing this because I care. A mother of seven children wanting to go to DC is showing people how bad it is in Congress right now and I’m going to help this nation go in the right direction.”

Q A

What issues are you most concerned about in District 3?

“We’re going to talk about the borders, for example, Biden’s policy of open borders, and since he took over millions are coming in. The national security team

Former Rep. Tom Suozzi

is talking about drugs that are coming from the border, like the deadly fentanyl.”

“I immigrated twice. I understand how important immigration is and I welcome immigrants to have the American dream.

My husband is a person who was born in Ukraine and came to this country, and we both received opportunities. I want this opportunity for others, however, it has to be in the right way.”

“As a country, if we are willing to bring people here, we have to have a plan in place.

People are coming here for a better life.

And if you don’t have the resources to give them what they need to become functional members of this country, it’s a big problem because you’re going to turn the people to crime. We need to have a better system to welcome those people.”

Q A

What’s the first official action you plan to take if elected?

“I’m going to make my voice heard about border security, and I would like to restore SALT, the State and Local Tax Deduction for New Yorkers. We have a great delegation from New York who understand the importance of this exemption and I would like to join them and try to restore SALT.” “All these policies of defunding the police and weakening our law enforcement, it’s a huge problem. If we don’t have law enforcement that’s going to be there to protect us as a people, as a nation, it’s going to be chaos.”

“Also, just internationally, the United States has a responsibility and a national interest to keep a strong army and hold others accountable. I want to make sure that we are continuing to support our international allies.”

Q

What’s something you are proud of in your experience as an elected official that will help you in this position in Congress?

A

“When I promise I deliver, and I think people really saw that in my two years as a legislator. I was fully engaged with our law enforcement. We were able to bring more police officers on the street to protect our communities. I was able to bring safety to my district, and I will continue to support our law enforcement. We have brought funds to villages for spade readers, flood mitigation and solar panels that the village wanted.

When the village wanted other things, I was accessible. When I took office, I met every mayor, Democrat or Republican. I’m the legislator, and I’m here to serve everyone.

This is what I did in two years, and that’s the reason why people are engaged with me and support me.”

Tom Suozzi (DEM)

Trained as an attorney and CPA, Tom Suozzi began his life in public service when he was elected as mayor to the community he grew up in, Glen Cove, 30 years ago.

He served as mayor for eight years before being elected as Nassau County Executive in 2001. During his tenure, Nassau’s crime rate was reduced and he was credited for helping Nassau County avoid a fiscal disaster. He was also named New York State’s Environmentalist of the Year by the League of Conservative Voters. In 2016, Suozzi was elected to Congress, where he focused on bipartisanship and served as the Vice Chair of the Problem Solvers Caucus. In that role, he helped negotiate the Infrastructure and Jobs Act, which invested billions of dollars to improve New York’s infrastructure. As Congressman, Suozzi helped bring federal funds back to Nassau and Queens, specifically funding the Long Island Sound, Bethpage Water District and New York State’s federal COVID funds. He also helped pass legislation to lower the cost of insulin and other prescription drugs.

Q A

How are you going to repair constituents’ trust in the office?

Q A

What issues are you most concerned about in District 3?

Q A

What’s the first official action you plan to take if elected?

“It’s going to be very difficult. People are very, very discouraged by politics generally, and George Santos made it a lot worse. And I think my job is to listen to people about the issues that they care about and try to focus on getting things done in the areas that they are most concerned about.”

“I think that I’m fortunate that I have a long history with a lot of people in this district and they know me and I’m not a newcomer to them. I think I have some strong relationships now and I only hope to build on those.”

“My constituents are most concerned about the cost of living, so what’s important to me is to get the state and local tax deduction back and continue trying to reduce the cost of prescription drugs. I’ve had some progress on that already.”

“I think people are very upset about the immigration crisis, and there has to be a bipartisan compromise. Every Republican and every Democratic president for the past 40 years has failed to address this issue and there needs to be a bipartisan compromise. I laid out a bipartisan compromise in an op-ed piece in The New York Times, co-authored with Peter King. I will make that a priority if I get the opportunity to go back to Congress.”

“I’m also very concerned about Israel and Ukraine.”

“I’m going to ask [House Minority Leader and Leader of the House Democratic Caucus Congressman] Hakeem Jeffries to create a committee on bipartisanship to try to promote bipartisanship in the House. I’ve done that as part of the Problem Solvers Caucus, 25 Democrats and 25 Republicans who meet together to try to find common ground.”

Q A

What are you proud of in your experience as an elected official that will help you in this position in Congress?

“I have a proven ability to get things done for my constituents and I have relationships, I have deep relationships, with members of Congress on both sides of the aisle. I know how to navigate legislation and politics and to bring help back to the people of my district.”

NEIGHBORS IN THE NEWS Carle Place Assistant Principal Inducted Into Boys Soccer Hall Of Fame In November, Allen Foraker, assistant principal of Carle Place Middle/High School, was inducted into the New York State Public High School Athletic Association (NYSPHSAA) Boys Soccer Hall of Fame for coaching. The ceremony was held at Middletown High School where Mr. Foraker was honored and received a Hall of Fame ring.

For more than 23 years, Foraker coached multiple sports in Carle Place. He spent 18 of those years serving as Carle Place High School’s head varsity boys soccer coach.

Aside from coaching, Foraker took on leadership roles for Nassau County Boys Soccer as a conference coordinator, all-star game coordinator, all-state co-chair and Section 8 co-coordinator.

To be considered for the New York State Boys Soccer Hall of Fame, an individual must be nominated. This is followed by a voting process with the current chairmen of each section of New York State boys high school soccer.

Foraker was humbled to learn he was among the Hall of Fame recipients.

“Initially I was shocked,” he said. “I have never liked being the center of attention. It is nice being recognized, and to be in the same class as other members of the Hall of Fame is truly amazing.”

On December 19, Starbucks workers rallied alongside Long Island Jobs with Justice, clergy members, and Nassau County Legislator Siela Bynoe in response to the firing of former Starbucks worker and union orgnaizer Anthony Price. During the event, workers held a five-minute work stoppage

at the cafe, located at 914 Old Country Road, and also delivered a letter to management, signed by forty faith leaders, urging Starbucks to improve its relations with workers and its practices around unionizing efforts.

is one none of us will forget. The school and parents and fans gave us the most touching send off from the High School that Friday morning. Then playing in such a large arena with our families and fans who traveled hours to support us was so touching. We are so proud

of the season we had and even more proud of the grit these girls played with during each and every match all season long. We had very tough competition all season long and that is what ultimately prepared us for this most memorable season yet!”

HERRICKS STUDENTS DELIVER FOOD AND SMILES TO LOCAL FOOD PANTRY Fourth-graders in the Human Relations Club at Herricks’ Searingtown School recently spearheaded a holiday food drive to help fill the shelves at St. Aidan’s Food Pantry in Williston Park.

The students worked hard to raise awareness about the food drive by making posters, flyers and announcements. They included information they learned about food insecurity in the community and how even a small donation can make a big difference.

At the conclusion of the drive, the students were proud to have collected 15 crates of food, which they delivered personally to St. Aidan’s Food Pantry. During the field

trip, the students stocked the shelves with the donated food and met with volunteers who thanked them for their efforts and shared details on how their generosity will help local families in need.

EGG DROP CHALLENGE AT FLORAL PARK-BELLEROSE SCHOOL Floral Park-Bellerose School sixth-graders in Kristen Orsillo’s class headed out to the school’s courtyard to test their projects for the annual Egg Drop Challenge in December.

As part of their science unit on Newton’s laws of motion, the students learned about gravity. They watched a video on the Mars rover and how it successfully landed on the planet. They were challenged to create

their own landing gear for an egg to see if the contraption could defy the force of gravity and protect the egg from cracking.

The students utilized parachutes, balloons, tissue boxes, cardboard boxes and more to create their landing gear. One by one, the students went up the steps of the courtyard and dropped their landing gear.

MINEOLA EMT PROGRAM PREPARES LEARNERS FOR LIFE, AND COULD SAVE ONE Seniors enrolled in the EMT class at Mineola High School are gaining real-life experience and are on track to earn statewide certifications that will be invaluable as they navigate their postsecondary and career plans. Plus, the skills they are learning could help save a life.

The class is taught by Jacque Ambadjes, who spent nearly two decades as a paramedic in

the South Bronx before becoming a certified instructor coordinator for Nassau County EMT Academy. The students focus on all aspects of life as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT), including personal safety and use of protective gear, determining the cause of distress and preparing to assist the patient.

They learn how to carry a stretcher and how to fill out a patient care report, vital skills for an

EMT professional. The students also gain basic anatomy and physiology knowledge using the district’s new Anatomage Table, a state-of-theart 3D interactive anatomy visualization system. At the end of class every day, the students take each other’s vital signs and record them on a chart, including blood pressure, pulse, respiratory rate and skin condition.

Passing this course requires learners to

perform two practical exams, complete two written exams and ten patient evaluations.

Upon completion, learners will receive CPR and First Aid certifications and be well on their way to a career as an EMT or other health care professional with life skills that could be lifesaving.

Neighbors In Need: Combating Food Insecurity How we can help the hungry in 2024

between paying for food or other costs like rent, utilities, or gas at one point or another this calendar year.

AMANDA OLSEN

Q

Looking forward to 2024, how is the outlook for people who are food insecure?

aolsen@antonmediagroup.com

W

hile charitable giving is something we often think about around the holidays, people have needs all year round. Food insecurity is an ongoing problem in the United States. Food insecurity is a broad term that includes more than just a lack of food; the USDA defines food insecurity as “a lack of consistent access to enough food for every person in a household to live an active, healthy life.” People who are subsisting on nutrient poor food to stave off hunger would also fall into this category.

This is a national crisis, and Long Island is not exempt.

According to Long Island Cares, a local organization dedicated to fighting food insecurity, more than 230,000 Long Islanders are food insecure, and of that number, 65,000 are children and 26,000 are seniors.

Approximately 40 percent of food-insecure Long Island households are above the poverty level but don’t make enough to keep up with the high cost of living in Nassau and Suffolk counties, making them ineligible for nutrition assistance programs such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Food-insecure children are more likely than their peers to experience behavioral issues, reduced ability to learn social skills, and impaired learning. The health effects of hunger range from lack of stamina and increased illness – which increases missed work time – to feelings of hopelessness and despair. Seniors who are hungry experience depression and anxiety. They are also at increased risk for illness, disease, and even premature death.

Rachel Sabella, director of No Kid Hungry, recently addressed the crisis of food insecurity.

Q

What causes food insecurity?

There are many factors that can push a family into food insecurity: the rising cost of groceries due to inflation, low wages or income lost during the pandemic, food benefit programs and social assistance that were cut back. The latest data from the USDA tells us all these factors are putting more kids at risk of hunger. In 2022 alone, we saw the number of families facing food insecurity jump 40 percent.

Q

Who are the most vulnerable?

Food insecurity is especially

Hunger Heros feeding people experiencing food insecurity.

Hunger, specifically among children, is on the rise across the country, and we know that New York follows the national trend.

Across the country, nearly 1 in 5 kids could face food insecurity. That’s up from 1 in 8 the prior year. Despite rising hunger, in 2023 we saw programs that helped families through the pandemic lapse, and fewer dollars flowing every month to the families in greatest need. We need 2024 to be different. Whether it’s the Farm Bill in Washington or standing up the Summer EBT food assistance program here in New York, we need urgency from our elected officials. We know what works. Expanding those efforts shouldn’t be a question but a moral imperative.

Q

What are some ways to combat food insecurity, both short and long term?

Rachel Sabella, director of No Kid Hungry, passing out free meals. (Photo by No Kid Hungry) pronounced among families with children.

The problem spans rural and urban communities alike, and even families that once considered themselves economically secure are now facing pressure. We are especially concerned that families currently relying on food assistance programs to feed their kids are facing cuts to those benefits. For the first time in 25 years, Congress has failed to provide the dollars needed to fully fund the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC), a federal nutrition program designed specifically to help pregnant women and new moms afford essentials like formula, milk and fresh produce. Due to higher-than-expected participation and the rising cost of food, nearly 124,000 New Yorkers across the state could lose critical nutrition assistance.

This funding shortfall would be devastating

for families across our state being that WIC not only helps parents make ends meet, but also supports the health and development of infants and young children. Data shows WIC dramatically improves maternal, infant and child health and development, while also helping participants improve their diets by purchasing healthier foods.

Q

What impact did the recent bout of inflation have on food insecurity?

Inflation has made a bad situation worse.

Families are now finding it harder to afford groceries and put food on the table.

According to our 2023 poll of New York families, nearly 3 in 4 New Yorkers reported it harder to afford groceries this year than last.

Forty percent of those we surveyed in New York shared that they were forced to decide

Nine in 10 New Yorkers want their elected officials to work on a bipartisan basis to do more to eliminate childhood hunger. There’s a big opportunity right in front of us. Summer EBT benefits could bring more than $200 million in new federal aid for meals, keeping kids healthy while also supporting businesses across the state as families spend those dollars. Summer Electronic Benefits Transfer (Summer EBT) would be a game-changer for kids in what is often the hungriest season of the year. We have options here, but we need to take immediate action if we want to make the necessary impact.

Q

What are your recommendations for public policy to reduce/eliminate food insecurity?

Providing families with direct assistance to pay for groceries, and providing kids with no-cost meals at schools and other community sites are proven ways to fight hunger. But right now, the programs that help feed kids and families are under attack.

Your voices matter. Reach out to your local, state and federal elected officials and urge them to prioritize programs that focus on hunger and the well-being of kids. We need to not only protect programs like SNAP and no-cost school meals, but expand them.

Lots of organizations like ours are working together to make this happen, and whether it’s volunteering or donating, you can help us drive awareness of these programs.

Blakeman And Allies Face Scrutiny For Spending Plans

Critics question plan to use COVID funds for county’s anniversary

“The fact that $10 million for lavish 125th anniversary galas, parades and marketing is ready to fly through the legislature shows just how out of touch the administration is with the needs and interests of everyday Nassau residents,” DeRiggi-Whitton wrote. “It is the latest glaring example of how County Executive Blakeman is continuing to exploit

federal recovery funds to promote himself and feed his own ego instead of meeting the needs of Nassau County’s residents.”

For his part, Executive Blakeman commented to The Island 360, “Past administrations have been negligent to the point of governmental malpractice by not showcasing the top-notch cultural sites, hospital network, beaches, parks, restaurants, entertainment venues, and shopping Nassau has to offer.”

assau County Executive Bruce Blakeman is planning to use $10 million in COVID relief funds to beef up the county’s 125th anniversary celebrations in 2024. Critics of the plan say the money would be better spent on other things, and question how the county expects to recoup that money, exactly.

In December, the county’s legislature voted along party lines to allow the county to spend the money, allocated through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), toward the funding and promotion of galas, parades, and other events to be held in celebration of Nassau County’s 125th anniversary next year.

Ahead of the full legislature’s vote, Legislature Minority Leader-elect Delia DeRiggi-Whitton (D – Glen Cove), said in a statement, “For months, more than $12 million in itemized ARPA requests to support organizations that promote public safety, fight hunger, combat homelessness,

Newsday reflected in their piece opposing the plan, “True, the funds for promotional events that will spotlight Blakeman, who is nearing the halfway point in his term, represent only a small portion of the federal aid that helped keep the county’s budget afloat through the end of the pandemic. But is this particular allocation needed at all?”

As Bill Rodrigues reported for WSHU, county Republicans have said that the concerts, galas, car shows, and/or golf tournaments will not only boost tourism in the county but end up raising three times as much money as is spent. Details on how this would be accomplished are unclear at present.

“We’re anticipating spending $10 million and hoping to generate, for every dollar we spend, $3 in new revenue so we’re roughly hoping in tourism and sales tax generation [to make] about $30 million,” said Andy Parsec, with the Nassau County Office of Management and Budget, to WSHU, adding that it would be “really hard to put a pin” in exactly how that number was prepared.

Blakeman reportedly aims to have a specific plan ready in January, which the legislature must approve before the money can be spent.

The NYS Dept Of Labor Releases Survey On State Of Work T

he New York State Department of Labor recently released the results of its 2023 Workforce Development Survey, and workers continue to say that flexibility in their job is the number one priority, while attracting new employees and retaining current workers remain the top challenges for businesses.

The annual survey, which is done in partnership with Empire State Development and the New York State Business Council, started in 2021 as an effort to understand the needs of both workers seeking employment and employers in a post-pandemic economy.

Gathering responses from over 2,400 businesses and 8,200 individuals, this survey is the most comprehensive survey available on the specific needs of businesses and job seekers statewide.

“In the wake of the economic uncertainty generated by the pandemic, many businesses report that they continue to struggle with filling open positions,” said

New York State Department of Labor Commissioner Roberta Reardon. “Now, more than ever, it is imperative that we use what we’ve learned from this collaborative survey to understand the changes that have occurred in the labor market and develop effective strategies to match people to careers.”

In the survey, businesses report they are struggling to attract workers and say that competition for a limited talent pool is driving the market. Attracting new workers, retaining current workers, fears of inflation and increased regulations on businesses are top concerns of employers in New York State. There is also a major need for skilled trades awareness and training.

For workers, paid time off, health insurance, and higher pay continue to remain high priorities, though this year, for the first time, “ability to work remotely full-time” is a top incentive job seekers desire. Workers have preference

for online training, virtual workshops and job fairs, and one-on-one career guidance. NYSDOL offers many of these services at no cost.

Recent NYSDOL efforts in workforce development, including a $350 million investment by Governor Hochul, are creating opportunities for workers looking to grow their skills and incomes in the competitive State economy. For workers looking to upskill and train in higher-paying industries and careers, they say lack of education, access to professional networks, and age discrimination remain recurring impediments, according to the survey.

Higher education and further skills development remain out of reach for many workers, due to rising costs of schooling and time constraints of working other jobs. Job seekers are interested in advanced training in digital skills, driver certifications, and healthcare. NYSDOL offers free job search assistance in our 96 career centers,

free upskilling and training through Coursera, and most recently launched the Northstar Digital Literacy Program for employment seekers lacking digital literacy skills.

Many New Yorkers are actively seeking work in construction, retail trade, health care and social assistance and other industries and services. Top positions employers are looking to fill include teachers, CDL drivers and laborers.

Most businesses are looking to maintain or increase their physical footprint, signaling the need for a continued, active local workforce.

Three-quarters of businesses statewide report they are not considering implementing any form of digital automation.

Despite fears of automation and artificial intelligence taking away jobs, the necessity for skilled workers in New York State remains.

Attracting Hummingbirds To Your Yard When participants came to my yard during the First Native Plant Garden Tour sponsored by Rewild Long Island and Port Washington Water District in June 2022, many wanted to know how to attract hummingbirds to their yards. My property was listed in this tour as a bird-friendly habitat. The water district is involved because they want residents to use native plants to reduce water use and to replace some of their lawn area.

At that time I had a few bee balm (Monarda didyma) and cardinal flower (Lobelia cardinallis) perennial plants, a native honeysuckle vine (Lonicera sempervirens,“Major Wheeler”) and probably 1000 annual jewel weed plants, which all attract hummingbirds. One year later, in 2023, I bought 10 bee balms and another 10 cardinal flowers. Those extra plants made the difference. Before, I saw very few hummingbirds in the summer on the red flowers, but with the additional number I was seeing a hummingbird every day in my yard. I rarely saw more than one hummingbird at a time because when there were two, one chased the other off.

With the removal of a huge dying beech tree, a sunny area opened up in my yard and I bought plants that attracted hummingbirds using grant money from a foundation that supported the planting of native plants in the Long Island Sound

When that is approved you buy the plants and then submit the receipt to get reimbursed. North Shore Audubon Society helps with this process if you need it.

The annual jewel weed plants always did well in the shade and can survive in sun if watered regularly. Hummingbirds visit the little orange flowers of the jewel weed in the Fall when the plants flower.

I started with one plant and now I have 1000 plants and can give them away to anyone who wants one. The seeds spread prolifically.

I have also seen hummingbirds visit zinnias and cuphea, an annual that thrives in Mexico but can be grown here. Much has been written about attracting hummingbirds if readers want to

A hummingbird feeder also attracts the birds. Boil water so that the sugar you add dissolves.

Add 1/4 cup of sugar for each cup of water. After sugar dissolves you can store the water in the refrigerator until you use it. Change the water in the feeder every 4 days.

The usual species that you will attract on the east coast is the ruby-throated hummingbird which can be seen in many public gardens including Leeds Pond

Preserve, where Science Museum of Long Island volunteers care for several native plant gardens.

Another species can show up. A black-chinned hummingbird was seen by many this Fall on Randall’s Island. In North Carolina, several feeders had rufus hummingbirds visit regularly last winter.

Look Up One interesting aspect of the sun is its sunspots. Sunspots are areas where the magnetic field is about 2,500 times stronger than Earth’s, much higher than anywhere else on the Sun. Because of the strong magnetic field, the magnetic pressure increases while the surrounding atmospheric pressure decreases. This in turn lowers the temperature relative to its surroundings because the concentrated magnetic field inhibits the flow of hot, new gas from the Sun’s interior to the surface.

Sunspots tend to occur in pairs that have magnetic fields pointing in opposite directions. A typical spot consists of a dark region called the umbra, surrounded by a lighter region known as the penumbra. The sunspots appear

Sharing Your Past Can Enhance Your Present And Future Our families and familial experiences affect us. Research has demonstrated that the bond created between an individual and their caregivers can shape their romantic relationships later in life. Beyond attachment-related influences, our families can impact our beliefs, attitudes, values, and habits. The traditions and rituals we practice with our families are likely to be carried over to our relationships/family of creation. Therefore, discussing our families and our experiences with them can enhance our relationships, give our partners insight into who we are as people, and shed additional light on what we value.

Take for example Julie and Jordan, who have been dating for 7 months. Julie grew up in a large family that celebrated every single holiday. They even had a tree planting party for Arbor Day. They would take any opportunity to gather their entire family, both immediate and extended. Jordan, on the other hand, grew up in a small family who did not focus on

the holidays. While they celebrated birthdays, they didn’t have specific traditions for the holidays.

Jordan recently surprised Julie with a weekend away which happened to fall on Mother’s Day. Julie was thrilled with the plans but shared that she couldn’t go.

She was planning to celebrate with her family over brunch, an invitation that she extended to Jordan. While he was happy to be included, he didn’t understand why they couldn’t have brunch with Julie’s mother the following weekend. To him, it was just a

day, and they could spend any other weekend with her mother.

To Julie, it was important to be with family on the holiday. Both loved their families and each other but had different views of holidays and celebrations. Having a conversation about the meaning behind these occasions can help provide them with insight into one another’s world.

Take some time to discover the past with your partner as it likely influences their views of the world and how they show up in the relationship. Understanding your partner’s life experiences gives you an inside look into how they think and can enhance your connection. Below is an activity to help with this discovery process.

Plan an evening free of outside distractions, where you can connect with your partner and explore your pasts. Touch on the following areas: • Your favorite childhood memories • Your favorite traditions growing up

Photo by Alex Nuñez

• Your typical routines as a family • The support your family offered you growing up (emotionally, financially, etc.)

• The role your family (and extended family) has played in your life • Your most treasured memory

with your parents/guardians • The most valuable lessons you learned from your family These are just some topics to get you started. I hope you will be surprised at how much of an impact sharing the past can have on your relationship.

When Faith Is Stronger Than Fear We currently live in a world that is plagued by fear. Current events both nationally and internationally have us watching and reading about brutally violent occurrences, and the anti-Semitism that has infiltrated both college campuses and the populace at large have many Jews afraid to display their religion openly. Though caution and pragmatism is certainly recommended, abject fear will only stymie a person from enjoying life the way that they should and achieving all they are meant to.

There was once a story told about an 84-year-old man who goes sky diving for fun. Even at his age, he takes risks, exposes himself to adventure, and revels in the free fall of the open air. Certainly, he wasn’t born this way, with the proclivity for such boldness.

Surely, he worked himself up to becoming a man with that capability and confidence. In the same way, we need to stretch ourselves to accomplish our dreams and desires.

Fear can truly limit a person. I know of another woman who suffered from agoraphobia; she was afraid to leave her home, despite

RABBI MOSHE WEISBLUM having developed a successful sandwich business from the confines of her kitchen. One day, though, when the opportunity presented to her was just too exciting to turn down, she took a job as a part-time chef – and that led to the establishment of her own catering business and restaurant.

The gifts inside of her were what planted the seeds for her success and her bravery is what enabled her to be more prolific than she had ever thought possible.

Another example of faith overcoming limitation is portrayed in the new Broadway show,

How to Dance in Ohio, based on the Peabody Award-winning HBO documentary of the same name. It’s a heartfelt new musical that explores the universal need to connect and the courage it takes to step out into the world. The action unfolds at a group counseling center in Columbus, Ohio, where seven autistic young adults prepare for a spring formal dance — a rite of passage that breaks open their routines and gives way to hilarious and heartwarming encounters.

We need to think of fear as nothing more than an illusion – just as Dorothy discovered that the great and terrible Wizard of Oz was nothing more than an old man blowing smoke and mirrors.

Though fear may seem to completely overtake us on occasion, there is no reason to kow-tow to it.

Instead, we need to recognize our trepidation for what it is and look inside ourselves in order to combat it. Each one of us possesses inner strength – an inner resolve that can aid us in achieving

The Reason For The Season It is time to undecorate the house

he reasoning might not have been clear or slightly muted when I was growing up around the reasons that we left the Christmas decorations up until the 12th night after Dec. 25. Growing up, if you asked me why, I’d probably shrug and say, “I dunno; we just do,” but long after I left home and began to share traditions and culture with my shipmates in the Navy, I learned more about the cultural and religious significance of my family’s own “Little Christmas,” also know to others as “Twelfth Night” or “Three Kings Day.” The tradition of taking down Christmas decorations after Little Christmas on Jan. 6 is rooted in various cultural and religious practices. Many believe that waiting until this date, also known as the Feast of the Epiphany, honors the arrival of the Magi— Balthazar, Melchior, and Gaspar—and the end of the Christmas season. It symbolizes the completion of the Twelve Days of Christmas, observed from Dec. 25 to Jan. 6. Some cultures associate leaving decorations up beyond this point with superstitions or consider it inauspicious. Taking down decorations after Little Christmas marks a transition from the festive season, signaling the conclusion of holiday celebrations.

Three Kings Day, also known as Epiphany or the Feast of the Epiphany, is a Christian holiday that commemorates the visit of the Magi to the infant Jesus.

Celebrated on Jan. 6, this festival marks the end of the Christmas season in many cultures around the world.

The roots of Three Kings Day can be traced back to the biblical account of the wise men who followed the star to Bethlehem. The story is found in the Gospel of Matthew, and it emphasizes the universal significance of Jesus’ birth, as the Magi were not Jews but rather foreigners. Their journey symbolizes the manifestation of Jesus as the Savior for all people, regardless of their cultural or ethnic background.

The celebration of Three Kings Day has evolved over the centuries, blending religious and cultural traditions. The holiday has a rich history in various regions, with unique customs and practices that reflect the diverse ways in which people observe this occasion.

In Latin American countries, Three Kings Day, or “Día de los Reyes,” is a major celebration. Families come together to share a special meal, and in some places, a “rosca de reyes,” a sweet bread adorned with candied fruits, is a traditional treat.

Hidden within the bread is a small figurine representing the baby Jesus, and whoever finds it is blessed and often required to host a celebration on Candlemas Day, observed on Feb. 2.

In Spain and other Spanish-speaking regions, the day is marked by colorful parades known as the “Cabalgata de Reyes,” during which the three kings ride through the streets on camels, throwing sweets and small gifts to the crowd. Many families attend these parades, and children leave their shoes out on the night of Jan. 5 to find gifts from the Magi the next morning.

Many people exchange one single meaningful gift on Three Kings Day (Jan.

6), including my own immediate family.

I reserve one, small and inexpensive gift, that usually has some personal significance between my daughter and myself to give her on Jan. 6. Sometimes it is a gift that I know she had wished for but did not receive on Christmas, or it is an item to complement something that she did receive on Christmas.

A neighboring family has a similar tradition, but their criteria is that the gift should be handmade, with natural items, by the giver, to symbolize the gifts that the Three Kings offered–gold, frankincense and myrrh. I even remember one year, being frantically asked for “baby powder” by the neighbor who was recreating “dusty footprints left by the camels who were traveling with the Three Kings” to deliver her son’s gift the next morning. Cute.

In some Eastern European countries, particularly in Orthodox Christian traditions, Three Kings Day is associated with the blessing of water. This ritual symbolizes the baptism of Jesus in the Jordan River and is performed by priests who bless bodies of water, such as rivers and lakes. People take part in this ceremony to cleanse themselves spiritually and seek protection for the coming year.

In Ireland and the United Kingdom, Jan. 6 is often referred to as “Little Christmas” or “Women’s Christmas.” It is a day when women traditionally take a break from household chores, and families gather for festive meals and celebrations. The day is also known as Nollaig na mBan in Irish, translating to “Women’s Christmas.”

Three Kings Day and Little Christmas hold a special place in the hearts of people around the world. The traditions associated with these celebrations vary, but they all share a common thread of joy, gift-giving, and the recognition of the universal significance of the Christmas story.

s the calendar flips to a new year, individuals worldwide embark on a journey of self-improvement by setting New Year’s resolutions. While some timeless goals like losing weight and saving money persist, each year brings new trends that reflect the evolving priorities and values of society. In 2023, several emerging resolution trends are reshaping the way people approach personal growth and understanding these trends can pave the way for a successful and fulfilling year.

Mindfulness and Mental Well-being

There has been a notable shift towards prioritizing mental health and well-being.

New Year’s resolutions now often revolve around cultivating mindfulness, reducing stress, and fostering emotional resilience.

Practices such as meditation, journaling and gratitude exercises are gaining popularity as individuals recognize the profound impact of mental well-being on overall life satisfaction.

Digital Detox and Technology Balance

As technology continues to play an integral role in our lives, there’s a growing awareness of the need for balance. Many people are resolving to take a digital detox, limiting screen time and creating designated tech-free zones. Striking a healthier balance between the virtual and real worlds is seen as crucial for improved focus, better sleep and enhanced relationships.

Here are some strategies to help individuals stick to their New Year’s resolutions:

dominant trend in the fitness world. HIIT involves short bursts of intense exercise followed by brief periods of rest or lower-intensity activity. This time-efficient and effective workout method has gained popularity due

to its ability to burn calories, improve cardiovascular health, and enhance overall fitness in a relatively short amount of time.

Various HIIT formats, such as Tabata and circuit training, contribute to the diversity of this trend.

Mindful Movement and Recovery

In recent years, there has been a growing emphasis on incorporating mindfulness and recovery into fitness routines. Practices such as yoga, Pilates, and mobility exercises are being integrated into workout programs to promote flexibility, balance, and mental well-being. Additionally, recovery-focused tools like foam rollers, massage guns, and stretching routines are gaining

popularity to help individuals improve muscle recovery and reduce the risk of injuries. The concept of holistic fitness, which considers both physical and mental aspects, has become central to many people’s approach to exercise.

The effectiveness of any workout trend depends on individual preferences, fitness goals, and health conditions.

Consider seeking guidance from a fitness professional to ensure proper technique and form. Track your progress, celebrate small achievements, and be patient with the adaptation process. By easing into the routine with intention and consistency, you’ll increase the likelihood of successfully integrating the new workout into your overall fitness regimen.

n any given day you will hear at least once that your own friendof-a-friend, a family member or a high-profile celebrity is on a new “weight loss” injectable and is having unbelievable results. In this two-part feature, we will give you some of the general information about the landscape of injectable weight loss medications, which originally were developed to treat diabetic patients.

Injectable weight loss drugs have been a subject of ongoing research and development as researchers and pharmaceutical companies aim to address the global concern of obesity. These medications are typically designed for individuals who struggle with obesity and have not achieved significant weight loss through lifestyle changes alone.

One notable class of injectable weight loss drugs includes GLP-1 receptor agonists. GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) is a hormone that plays a role in regulating appetite and metabolism. By mimicking the effects of GLP-1, these drugs can help control blood sugar levels and induce weight loss.

Some examples of injectable GLP-1 receptor agonists include:

Liraglutide (Saxenda)

GRAB BARS INSTALLED

Semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy)

Originally approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, liraglutide has also been approved as an injectable medication for chronic weight management. It is typically self-administered once a day.

Semaglutide is another GLP-1 receptor agonist that has been studied for its effectiveness in promoting weight loss.

It is available in a weekly injectable form for diabetes treatment and, at a higher dose, has been approved as Wegovy for chronic weight management. It is typically administered once a week.

These medications work by acting on the brain’s appetite centers, promoting a feeling of fullness and reducing food intake. They also slow down the emptying

of the stomach and may have additional benefits such as improving blood sugar control and cardiovascular health.

While these injectable weight loss drugs have shown promise in clinical trials, it’s important to note that they are not a one-size-fits-all solution, and their use should be carefully considered based on an individual’s health status, medical history, and overall weight management needs. Like any medication, they may have potential side effects, and their use should be supervised by a healthcare professional.

The development and approval of new medications are dynamic processes. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare provider or refer to the latest medical literature and regulatory updates for the most current information on injectable weight loss drugs.

It is crucial to approach weight loss as a multifaceted endeavor, incorporating a balanced diet, regular physical activity, and lifestyle modifications. Before considering any weight loss medication, individuals should engage in open and thorough discussions with their healthcare providers to determine the most appropriate and personalized approach to their weight management journey.

Check the Feb. 7 edition of Anton’s Profiles in Medicine to hear from a healthcare professional about the new trend.

The Nutrient-Rich Trio

Unlocking the health benefits of kale, Brussels sprouts and winter squash

BY ANTON MEDIA STAFF

I

n the realm of nutrition, certain foods stand out for their exceptional health benefits, and three winter favorites— kale, Brussels sprouts, and winter squash— comprise a nutrient-rich trio that packs a powerful punch. These vegetables, often associated with colder seasons, bring myriad advantages to the table, contributing to overall well-being and offering a delicious way to nourish the body.

1

Kale: The Leafy Green Powerhouse Kale, a dark, leafy green, has rightfully earned its reputation as a nutritional powerhouse. Packed with vitamins A, C, and K, as well as minerals like calcium and iron, kale supports various bodily functions. Its high fiber content promotes digestive health and helps in maintaining a healthy weight by inducing a feeling of fullness.

Kale is rich in antioxidants, including beta-carotene and flavonoids, which play a crucial role in combating oxidative stress and inflammation. These properties make kale an excellent choice for supporting immune health and reducing the risk of chronic diseases.

2

Brussels Sprouts: Tiny Gems of Nutrient Density Brussels sprouts, often overlooked in the vegetable aisle, are small cruciferous vegetables that deliver an impressive array of nutrients. Packed with vitamins C and K, as well as folate, manganese, and fiber, Brussels sprouts contribute to optimal health in various ways.

One standout feature of Brussels sprouts is their high glucosinolate content. These

The fiber content aids in digestion and helps maintain blood sugar levels, making Brussels sprouts a valuable addition to a balanced diet for those managing diabetes or seeking weight management.

3

Winter Squash: A Colorful Array of Nutrients Winter squash varieties, such as butternut and acorn squash, add vibrant colors and a rich flavor to winter meals.

These squashes are rich in beta-carotene, a precursor to vitamin A, which is essential for vision health, immune function, and skin integrity. Squash provides a good dose of vitamin C, potassium, and fiber.

The antioxidants found in winter squash, particularly beta-carotene and vitamin C, contribute to the neutralization of free radicals, reducing oxidative stress in the body.

Art League Of LI Recovering From Flood T he Art League of Long Island (ALLI) proudly announces the successful beginning of the reconstruction efforts following the devastating damage caused by heavy rainfall on September 29, 2023. The catastrophe led to substantial damage to all nine studios, the Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery, office space, and the library.

Despite the challenges faced, the Art League community remained resilient.

Temporary accommodations were arranged for classes and exhibitions, hosted by supportive partners such as Spirit of Huntington, Nassau Community College’s Art Department, Nassau County Museum of Art, and the Half Hollow Hills and Northport school districts. Exhibitions, including one hosted by Empire Mazda of Huntington, continued to thrive. The Art League of Long Island stood firm, ensuring the continuity of its programs and events.

Reconstruction efforts, managed by Anthony Lauto of Camber Strategies, are comprehensive, including renovations to the building and grounds. Critical infrastructure enhancements such as the installation of six catch basins, a new concrete walkway, updated curbing to the foundation, a water dam, and additional drywells. Essential repairs to the parking lot and internal spaces are also being executed, including patching of sheetrock and drywall, improved insulation, repainting of the Strolling & Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery, installation of new flooring, and enhancements to studios for better lighting and storage.

The total cost of these efforts amounts to approximately $500,000, entirely funded

through internal resources. However, the Art League of Long Island continues to seek support from the community through donations to match its programs with the renewed space and to establish an endowment for future sustainability.

Executive director Marianne Della Croce highlighted, “Our mission, dating back to 1955, has been to provide broad-based visual arts education and serve as a platform for artists of all ages and abilities. Our vision remains steadfast in creating an art-centric community that fosters creativity and support. We are seeking continued backing from our community to ensure the Art League continues its impactful journey.”

The Art League of Long Island invites individuals and businesses to contribute through memberships, donations, and employer matching programs. Every contribution will help sustain the Art League’s mission, supporting artists’ development, outreach programs to underserved communities, and maintaining high-quality fine arts exhibitions.

Home Care with Community Medicaid Home care paid for by New York State is known as “Community Medicaid”. Paying your own living expenses, plus the cost of caregiving services, is beyond the means of many.

Since 2020, there have been numerous attempts to create a new thirty month look-back period for Community Medicaid eligibility. So far, none of these attempts have been successful and now 2024 is the earliest expected date for implementation.

There is no current look-back period for Community Medicaid in New York. This means that you may move assets out of your name this month and obtain Medicaid home care benefits next month, provided you need the care.

Currently, an individual may keep about $1,700 per month plus the amount of any health care insurance premiums. Any excess income must be used towards their care. What if your living expenses exceed $1,700 per month? Enter the “pooled income trust”.

Certified by the state, pooled income trusts are used to allow you to send your excess income, i.e. the amount over the $1,700 per month you are allowed to keep, to the trust along with copies of your bills for food, rent, mortgage, utilities, home repairs, etc. The trust pays your bills and any amounts unused will accumulate in your account and eventually be added to the “pool” to be used for charitable purposes after your death.

Any monies paid to the pooled income trust are not counted as income for Medicaid purposes, allowing you to qualify for Community Medicaid.

The number of hours you will receive depends on the county’s assessment of your needs regarding the activities of daily living (ADL’s). Some of these are eating, bathing, shopping, cooking, personal hygiene, ambulating, housekeeping, dressing, etc.

Several non-profit organizations exist that offer pooled trusts. Applying to join is a formal process with which the elder law firm will assist. Costs generally include minimal start-up fees, an initial deposit and reasonable maintenance fees.

Anton’s Toys For Tots Toy Drive

nce again, the staff at Anton Media Group collected toys and gifts for Toys for Tots. This year’s drive was a resounding success, with items collected for all ages.

Toys for Tots is a program run by the United States Marine Corps Reserve

which distributes toys to children whose parents cannot afford to buy them gifts for Christmas. The mission of the program is “to collect new unwrapped toys and distribute those toys to less fortunate children at Christmas.” The stated goal is to “deliver, through a new toy at

Christmas, a message of hope to less fortunate youngsters that will assist them in becoming responsible, productive, and patriotic citizens.” However, since the initial conception of their mission statement, Toys for Tots has expanded their efforts year-round to promote literacy

amongst underprivileged children with their Literacy Program, and they now provide toys and books to Native American children through their Native American program.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). For you, it’s not about the money. Money is a form of communication. Money acknowledges the worth of a service or the work that went into making it. You’ll participate in trades that follow a mysterious kind of accounting and yield surprising conclusions. You have earth sign allies (Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn).

Under the sea Solution: 19 Letters

© 2024 Australian Word Games Dist. by Creators Syndicate Inc.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The past taps on your mind. It’s not a mystical sign or a developmental opportunity, rather it’s a familiar distraction from the harder work of facing the uncertainty of the future. There’s no need to return to an old fight, rehash dramatic history or reopen a closed case. Abundant rewards await you, and they are all in the future.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The better you understand a thing, the simpler you can explain it. You may feel at a loss to describe a wish or a problem. But as you stay open and observant, the scene will start to come into better focus. You’ll know what you need to say to convey your needs and wants and instruct others to deliver on them.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). When people subconsciously sum you up, they take clues about your role straight from you, and then decide how to treat you based on how you treat yourself. So, you’ll be wonderful to yourself. You’ll set high standards, but you’ll also give yourself comfort and ease around achieving them.

This is the treatment you prefer and it’s what you’ll get.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). A packed schedule will work for you this week, but only because things fall out along the way, allowing for the errands, conversations and projects that take longer. Some of the most wonderful moments happen as you loosen the reigns on yourself and follow the clues provided by your attractions, distractions and impulses.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll enjoy nothing better than doing the work you enjoy with people you love. How far should you push yourself for optimal strength, health and happiness? You’re inclined to err on the side of working too hard. You will benefit from pulling back. An air sign (Gemini, Libra and Aquarius) will be a fun person to lighten up with.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Not only do you know what you need to do, you have the resolve to do it. You’ll spend a fair amount of time setting yourself up for success in the days to come, an act of love, really. Preparation is a form of self-nurturing that will not only add to your emotional well-being but will also help you be the person on whom others depend.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It’s not like you have anything against the status quo. You don’t set out with a grudge for the way things are, and yet, you somehow keep landing on the idea that it could be better -- you could, they could -- and that it’s worth putting effort into. You’re capable of turning mediocrity into movingly magnificent moments.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It is within your reach to become extraordinary, but that’s a given because of the extraordinary treasure you have always carried inside you. That said, one cannot force the gems to shine, rather the process is one of opening up to the light and allowing for reflection. Responsive people are all around you this week, awed by your shimmering.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

Whatever was standing in the way of your happiness, it will blow away with the flame of your candles. When joy is there for the taking, you won’t waste it. And your good cheer will contribute to the delight of others in ways you can’t imagine now.

Your altruism attracts generous souls, and together you’ll make improvements for those who need it most. The interests you promote will promote you right back.

Your personal life features thrilling twists and changes of scenery.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). As one who’s pulled off dazzling feats, you know the magician’s secret.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Like the mighty oak in an acorn, something humble and unimpressive can become massive, or it can become squirrel food. Luck is a factor, but so is your intention. There are many ideas you could act on. Your grand plan starts by narrowing your options. What ideas are worth nurturing and protecting?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The reason you haven’t taken off in the direction you want to go is that you are tethered by an agreement or a powerful person’s preferences. You could negotiate, or you could use the equivalent of pruning shears to cut the tie. The preferences of others are only surface matters. For the best results, think about the need inside the need.

When opportunity knocks East dealer.

North-South vulnerable.

NORTH ♠542 ♥Q J 8 6 2 ♦ 10 5 ♣A 8 2 WEST EAST ♠A83 ♠ K Q J 10 9 7 6 ♥ 10 5 4 ♥K 9 7 ♦83 ♦J 4 2 ♣7 6 5 4 3 ♣— SOUTH ♠— ♥A 3 ♦AKQ976 ♣ K Q J 10 9 The bidding: East South West North Pass 1♦ Pass 1♥ 3♠ 6♣ Pass Pass 6♠ Pass Pass 7♣ Opening lead — ace of spades.

Let’s assume that, rightly or wrongly, you get to seven clubs on the bidding shown and West leads the ace of spades. You ruff, of course, and undoubtedly regret having failed to double six spades, since seven clubs is not a healthy contract.

This view is reinforced when you lead a trump to the ace and East shows out. On top of your other troubles, West now has more trumps than you have, and the situation looks bleak indeed.

But faint heart ne’er won fair lady, so you lead the queen of hearts from dummy and finesse after East follows low. When the finesse succeeds, you are in better shape than before, but not yet out of the woods. You still need a favorable diamond division to carry off the grand slam.

This must be your lucky day, for when you next play the A-K of diamonds, both defenders follow suit, and the grand slam is in the bag. There are no more hurdles to surmount, despite the fact that West outnumbers you in trump.

You continue playing diamonds, planning to discard all of dummy’s hearts if West does not ruff at any point, and then lead the ace of hearts to sew up the rest of the tricks.

If West ruffs any of your red-suit winners as you play them, you simply overruff with dummy’s eight — thereby equalizing West’s trump length with yours — and draw his trumps to bring the matter to a happy conclusion.

The hand is a good illustration of how you must think positively when attempting to land a hazardous contract. You won’t always get punished for an occasional overbid if you maintain your composure so that you can take full advantage when a favorable opportunity presents itself.

Old Westbury Gardens Holds 29th Annual ‘December Dinner’ Event

n Friday, December 1st, amidst the beautiful holiday decorations in Westbury House, Old Westbury Gardens held its 29th annual December Dinner fundraising event to benefit Old Westbury Gardens and its 2024 preservation projects. The December Dinner is the most important fundraising event on the Gardens’ calendar, responsible for raising approximately 45 percent of the Gardens’ operating budget.

This year’s honoree was Tham Kannalikham, a New York-based interior designer. Ms. Kannalikham is a passionate student of historic precedent in regards to design, and through her dedication to old world traditions, coupled with historic preservation, Ms. Kannalikham promotes connoisseurship in the younger generation of designers and tastemakers to prevent the loss of these traditions.

Welcome remarks were made by newly

named Gardens president Maura Brush, along with remarks by event chairs John and Joan Deignan, chairman of the Board of Trustees for Old Westbury Gardens, Carol Large, and John Rogers of Goldman Sachs who introduced Ms. Kannalikham.

“It was wonderful to see Westbury House filled with friends and supporters of the Gardens to help us usher in our holiday season,” said Maura Brush. “We were delighted to honor Tham Kannalikham, who spoke

eloquently about her lifelong commitment to education, preservation, and restoration that so closely mirrors the values we hold most dear. It is my goal to continue to introduce Old Westbury Gardens to new and diverse audiences who also share these interests.”

Notable guests also in attendance included actress Susan Lucci, author Nelson DeMille, and Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman.

Pan Am Museum Foundation Soars In Garden City Flight is truly a phenomenon of the 20th Century and the modern era. The magnitude of its impact upon technical concerns, economic boundaries, educational opportunities involving research and development in addition to the safety and well being of generations to come is, to say the least, monumental.

The Pan Am Museum Foundation (PAMF) located at the Cradle of Aviation Museum in Garden City promotes the iconic history of that storied airline - the “World’s Most Experienced Airline” - and tracks its beginnings and contributions to

the advent of flight through the early years of the Boeing 314 Flying Boats delivering mail out of Port Washington, New York to the classic times of Boeing 707s operating from Idlewild Airport, carrying the Beatles to America as well as many heads of state up to the modern era where the Boeing 747 Jumbo Jets graced the skies from JFK International Airport.

PAMF will periodically provide newsworthy information on their activities and promotions in this publication. The Museum provides an opportunity for young and old to revisit the Pan Am Operation from a birds-eye-view. Former pilots, flight attendants, mechanics and technicians along with engineers and financial, material handling and procurement personnel have dedicated their time and experience in the founding and evolution of The Museum.

Take in the chronological timeline to gain a greater perspective of the magnificent growth of the airline the world over.

View exhibits of various Pilot and Flight Attendant uniforms from different eras. In addition, displays tell the story of Pan Am’s involvement during wartime. Students of all ages can take advantage of the Museum’s contents and artifacts for class projects and term papers.

Boarding now at The Cradle of Aviation Museum. Take your seat!

Poverty And Housing On Long Island We know there is a serious lack of affordable housing on Long Island. So where do the thousands of poor and low-income people live? Unfortunately, many of them live in shelters or in apartments in deplorable condition, which are owned by slumlords who only care about collecting the rent. As a community activist and mental health service provider for many years, I saw the problems of poor housing on a first-person basis. Working with severely and persistently mentally ill adults, I saw how people with limited incomes or welfare benefits were unable to secure sustainable housing for themselves and oftentimes ended up in county jail or using the mental hospitals because they did not have enough resources to pay for their basic needs.

After retiring I organized with other volunteers from the Poor People’s Campaign and New York Communities for Change to canvas in some of the worst apartment buildings in Hempstead. Knocking on doors we met with people who were living in total squalor: rats and other vermin were running around; mold was commonplace inside and outside of most units. Safety was also an issue, with many homeless people using the hallways of that building to come in out

of the cold each night. Crack vials were a common sight. Criminal activities such as sales of illegal drugs occurred in full view of the ownership.

As a result of these visits we created a coalition of like minded progressive groups called Housing for all Long Island (H4ALI) to work with affected tenants in an effort to: improve the conditions in substandard buildings throughout Long Island; build sustainable tenant organizations; and to stop evictions, which had been skyrocketing once the pandemic moratorium was lifted.

We are also concerned that the Departments of Social Services in both Nassau and Suffolk Counties are operating under the idea that placing poor families in shelters is an appropriate solution to the housing crisis. We met with people at a shelter in Suffolk County and saw that the conditions there were despicable; we found overcrowding and general poor conditions there. And we have learned that that is typical of most shelters.

H4ALI also works on helping tenants facing evictions and on promoting support for various housing bills in the State Senate and State Assembly. In Suffolk County we are also working to get Emergency Tenant Protection Act (ETPA) protections for

tenants, which exist in Nassau but not in Suffolk.

At the present time, Nassau County renters are given the opportunity to go to the Department of Housing and Community Renewal (DHCR) for such things as poor maintenance and retaliation on the part of the landlord. The same cannot be done by renters in Suffolk County.

Going forward it is our hope that we will continue to organize and educate residents in all rental buildings throughout Long Island. We invite you to join us, and to support the numerous local bills we’re

promoting as well as information about how to join our organization.

As Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. stated so brilliantly many years ago, “Education without social action is one-sided because it has no true power potential. Social action without education is a weak expression of pure energy. Deeds uninformed by educated thought can take false directions. When we go into action we must be as well armed with knowledge as [our opponents].”

Practical tips to improve your mental and physical health

BY JENNIFER CORR jcorr@antonnews.com

To make meaningful change, it’s important to start by building small habits that will lead to bigger ones.

“There are many things that are impacting people since Covid,” said Dr. Ronald Brenner, chief of Behavioral Health at Catholic Health. “A lot of burnout, a lot of difficulty coping with the day-today stress, after the stress that was triggered by Covid.”

Dr. Brenner said that increased commute times due to traffic and increased work due to staffing shortages are stressors he’s been hearing about from the public.

It’s essential, Dr. Brenner said, to try to find a balance between all the different aspects of life, work, family, relationships and

Br a nd on z Nie d e r auer on ta az

happiness.

“I think people really don’t have anybody to take to that the trust or that they can bring their problems too,” Dr. Brenner said. “That leads to more isolation and more depression and more anxiety.

One of the resolutions for the new year should be to improve, if you need to, your social relationships, activities and things that bring you pleasure like hobbies that have been abandoned and need to come in the picture, because they really protect you against burnout and against stress. So opening up, having a priest to talk to, having

a rabbi to talk to, having a good friend to talk to… needs to be done.”

Physical health: Mental and physical health go hand-in-hand.

“Fitness is a great production of happiness and endorphins,” Dr. Brenner said. “If you get on the treadmill, if you run, if you work out a couple of days a week, it makes a huge difference. There are studies that show taking even 4,000 steps a day can make a huge difference in your life. Putting some effort into eating a healthier meal when you’re there at the

he New Year is a time of new beginnings.

The idea of New Year’s Resolutions goes back to the Babylonians 4,000 years ago, when they celebrated the New Year in March, planted crops, and held a 12-day religious festival where they promised their gods to pay their debts and return borrowed objects.

Today, the New Year looks much different. People proclaim that they are going to try to start going to the gym more and eat healthier or that they’re going to reduce their stress, travel more and stay more organized.

But most New Year’s Resolutions never last because starting small is essential.

Mental health: According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, one in five U.S. adults experience mental illness and one in 20 experience serious mental illness.

And it doesn’t take much research to understand why.

We are constantly bombarded by tragedy on the news, we are constantly comparing ourselves to other people on social media; most of us only get evenings and weekends to spend time with family and do activities that give our lives meaning and we face unreasonable pressure.

By the time we get home from work, so many of us find ourselves sitting on the couch and watching television. No wonder time is moving so fast.

table makes a huge difference.”

Trying to exercise or eat healthy in an attempt to lose weight is a more difficult feat than it may seem. Losing weight takes time, and especially in today’s age of instant gratification, many people will give up if they don’t see immediate results.

“The number one resolution is, ‘I’m going to lose weight’, but I think the resolution should be ‘I’m going to eat better and get more exercise, and the weight reduction will come with that,’” Dr. Brenner said.

Sleep hygiene is also very important to one’s mental and physical health. According to the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, sleep deficiency is linked to many chronic health problems, including heart disease, kidney disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, stroke, obesity and depression.

“Sleep hygiene is paramount in happiness and well-being,” Dr. Brenner said. “Try to get between seven to eight hours of sleep. Eight hours is ideal. It’s very difficult for people to do it because of a bad habit or just plugging themselves in front of the T.V. and not doing more to get tired at night, maybe some more exercise in the morning, more walking during the day… and alcohol is a detrimental factor.

Many people think they should have a pretty heavy drink at night or some beers… it does produce some sedation at the beginning, but it destroys your REM sleep.”
