TOP STORY

Second Edition Of Woodbury History Book Released Spreading knowledge of local history

JENNIFER CORR

T

jcorr@antonmediagroup.com

he latest in Tom Montalbano’s collection of local history books is the second edtion of An Early History of Woodbury, Long Island, New York.

“Nobody ever treated Woodbury as if it was an entity of its own,” Montalbano said.

“It’s always Syosset, and also Woodbury.

They use our schools and library, but they never talk about the actual background and history of Woodbury.”

And Woodbury, according to Montalbano, has a very interesting history.

For example, American poet and essayist Walt Whitman taught in Woodbury on the corner of Woodbury Road at a oneroom schoolhouse for a short time.

“It was kind of a disaster,” Montalbano said. “He wrote letters to a friend of his talking about how much of a disaster it was. It’s interesting because we named a school after him, but he didn’t have any good things to say about Woodbury.”

There’s also Revolutionary War history in Woodbury, with a mix of people who were Loyalists and Patriots.

Montalbano, a researcher and historian from Syosset, said the book involved decades of research and more than a year of daily writing and editing.

Montalbano said it was his favorite of all the Syosset-Woodbury books he’s written, including Images of America: Syosset, The Syosset Fire Department: 1915-2015, and Early Merchants of Downtown Syosset, which was distributed by the Syosset-Woodbury Chamber of Commerce.

“I kind of have, it almost feels like a curse, because my first book about Syosset came out on Sept. 13, 2001,” Montalbano said. “I was all prepared to do all kinds of presentations and things, and of course Sept. 11 happened two days earlier and then [the first edition of An Early History of Woodbury, Long Island, New York] comes out in February or March of 2020, and a couple of days later the world shuts down.”

“So I’m almost afraid to put it out again,” Montalbano said.

The second edition of the Woodbury history book includes updates, since a lot has changed in the three years since its release.

“Entire shopping centers have been knocked down and all sorts of things,”

Montalbano said. “So I decided to bring it Rose Florist, burned down. up to date.”

from Arcadia Publishing, and it is crafted by local authors like Montalbano. There are currently over 8,500 books within the series, telling the stories of people and places throughout the United States.

“I sent my manuscript to them, and they loved it and they put the book out,” Montalbano said. “That was in September, 2001 and that book sold like crazy. It sold over 7,000 copies, which is a lot for an independent book, and they’re still selling now. I know they have them in all the drug stores and book stores and things. But I’ve since done three more books and a whole bunch of articles.”

Montalbano said it is definitely a challenge searching through historical records, including those going back to the 1600s and early 1700s.

Fortunately, there were people 200 years ago who brought records up to date, aiding in Montalbano’s research.

“For the town records that go back to 1653 in the Town of Oyster Bay, there was a point where somebody, when they were still legible, went through them and translated them from the old English to the more comprehensible language for that generation,” Montalbano said.

Montalbano said in some ways, that’s what he’s doing now for people 200 years from this point.

Empanadas With A Purpose Nelly’s Artisan Argentinian Empanadas opens in Glen Cove JENNIFER CORR jcorr@antonmediagroup.com

N

elly Mourelle could not have predicted what her life would’ve looked like just three years ago, when she was making and selling her empanadas at Deep Roots Farmers Market in Glen Cove and working full time as a guidance counselor.

Since then, she’s opened three locations to sell her empanadas while also providing career training and opportunities for students and adults with developmental disabilities.

“I still can not believe it, I pinch myself sometimes,” Mourelle said. “I had to go through all this to finally find what I like. I studied so much. I have multiple careers.

I did marketing. I did culinary arts. Then I decided to be a guidance counselor. I have a double Masters. I have another Masters in Spanish because I wanted to be a Spanish teacher... It all makes sense now. God was preparing me to do this work.”

Mourelle was always a chef.

“I started culinary arts in my 20s,” Mourelle explained. “It’s always been a passion of mine, cooking and food. I’ve always wanted to open a restaurant, but God decided back then it wasn’t my time. I’m from the Dominican Republic, and I came here and went back to school all over again and I went to be a guidance counselor, so I’m actually a bilingual guidance counselor, and I was working in Queens in District 24 for many years.”

During this time, Mourelle’s husband, Jorge, who is Argentinian, began having cravings for empanadas.

“It took me a long time to make the perfect empanada,” Mourelle said. “One day, when they were finally really good, he said ‘you should start selling these. They’re really good.’ And that’s how I started in the farmers market.”

Amy Peters, the founder of Deep Roots Farmers Market, said during the winter and spring of 2021, she was on the hunt for the best empanada she could find to bring to

the farmers market.

“Nelly approached me to see if she could join the market,” Peters said. “She brought me some samples-which were simply amazing. At that time, during COVID, we were dealing with space restrictions due to social distancing requirements and mostly booked up, but I had a few open dates available and invited her to come.

Her first day, she sold out in the first hour. I invited her to return the following Saturday. She brought twice as many empanadas that day and sold out in an hour and a half.

I invited her to join as a weekly vendor and her empanadas were a big hit.

Nelly Mourelle Over the last (Photos courtesy Nelly’s Artisan two years, she Argentinian has developed Empanadas) a very loyal following.”

Among the following is Rosemarie Rosenblum of Syosset. Rosenblum, who is originally from Glen Cove, bonded with Mourelle because she is a retired guidance counselor for Hicksville Public Schools.

“We struck up a conversation and every couple of weeks I’d go back in the morning and buy empanadas for the next couple of weeks and freeze them,” Rosenblum said.

“They’re delicious.”

Mourelle decided to focus on her empanadas full-time, opening up a space in West Babylon in the fall of 2022 and then at the Tanger Outlets in Deer Park in the spring of 2023. And while she no longer worked as a full-time guidance counselor, she still was able to exercise her passion of helping people.

“We both care deeply about helping the community and helping others and I give her tons of props, because she’s a busy lady,” Rosenblum said. “She’s running three retail establishments, all new, all getting off the ground, and still she’s making the time

to give back to the community and teach kids essential skills for life.”

At her West Babylon location, adults with autism from the Winters Center for Autism come to learn restaurant skills, such as cleaning, dish-washing and baking, because Nelly’s Empanadas are baked, never fried. They also have an opportunity to be hired to work there. Similarly, at the Deer Park location, students with developmental disabilities in the Deer Park High School life skills program receive career training there.

“Nelly is an incredible employer partner,” said Christine Ponzio, the executive director of the Winters Center for Autism.

“Because of her compassion we have had the opportunity to provide our food service trainees with a glimpse into working in a restaurant including food preparation, safety, customer service and problem solving when needed. Nelly believes in our mission and the work she does has inspired other businesses to hire adults with autism. We work together with Nelly to hire for a higher purpose.”

Mourelle said it’s unheard of for someone to combine their two passions in one place.

“That’s why I truly believe in God,” Mourelle said. “I think God created that for me so that I can finally open my restaurant, but also keep working with kids with disabilities, because when I was a guidance counselor I was working with kids with disabilities in the school district.”

Now, Mourelle said, she can make empanadas with a purpose.

And opening up her third location in Glen Cove, located at 17 Bridge St., is special to Mourelle, because Glen Cove is

where it all started.

“Three years to find the spot, and when I find the spot, it’s right across the street from where the farmers market used to be,” Mourelle said. “That community supported me in my business since day one. And because of them, I’ve been able to open my other locations and finally have been able to come to them.”

Menu items include Beef Classico, with ground angus beef, , sautéed onions, hardboiled eggs, raisins and green olives; Beef & Potatoes; Birria Taco, with slow-cooked beef in guajillo and ancho chile sauce with Mexican spices; CheeseBurger; Chicken Fiesta, with hormone-free chicken breast, fire-roasted corn, beans and veggies and mix of cheeses; Chicken & Cheese; Jerk Chicken; BBQ Chicken; BBQ Pulled Pork; Carnitas Taco with pulled pork, chipotle pepper sauce, black beans and blend of cheese; Ham & Cheese; Sun Dried Tomatoes; Caprese; Spinach & Ricotta; Spinach & Artichoke; Bacon, Egg & Cheese and Sausage, Egg & Cheese.

“I love that she makes her own dough from scratch, and that she bakes them instead of frying them,” Peters said. “So much healthier and that is very important to me and the mission of the farmers market. We are so happy that she has found a great space in Glen Cove for her third retail location. I sincerely hope that she can continue to be a part of the Deep Roots vendor family, but I also understand how difficult it is to manage and staff three stores. All of us at Deep Roots Farmers Market wish Nelly much success.”

All the ingredients are made in-house and are fresh.

“We are not a factory,” Mourelle said.

“We cook everything in small batches.

Even though I have three stores, it’s a little challenging to supply three stores because we cook in small batches. So when you get an empanada from one of our stores, it’s made with love. It’s made with care. It’s made with good ingredients. In all of our preparation we don’t use refined oils. We use olive oil.”

governors to the White House.

In 1919, he petitioned the state of Washington to designate the fourth Saturday in September as

an “Indian holiday.”

Also in 1915, the Congress of the American Indian Association, meeting in Lawrence, Kansas, directed its President, the Reverend Sherman Coolidge, an Arapaho minister, to call upon the nation to observe a day for American Indians. On September 18, 1915, he issued a proclamation declaring the second Saturday of each May as “American Indian Day” and appealing for U.S. citizenship for American Indians.

In 1924, Congress enacted the Indian Citizenship Act, extending citizenship to all U.S.-born American Indians not already covered by treaties or other federal agreements that granted such status. The act was later amended to include Alaska Natives.

The first American Indian Day in a state was declared on the second Saturday in May 1916 by Charles S. Whitman, then governor of New York.

Several states celebrate on the fourth Friday in September.

In Illinois, for example, legislators enacted such a day in 1919. Columbus Day has now been federally recognized as Indigenous People’s Day. In 1990 President George H. W. Bush approved a joint resolution designating November 1990 “National American Indian Heritage Month.” Similar proclamations, under variants on the name (including “Native American Heritage Month” and “National American Indian and Alaska Native Heritage Month”) have been issued each year since 1994.

So, what is an appropriate way to recognize Native American Heritage Month?

Marisa Page at FirstNations.org states that “In November and all year, (a) way to make a difference for Native communities is to recognize the myths and misconceptions surrounding Native Americans and take active steps to gain a more

Heritage Month accurate understanding and share that truth with others.”

“By recognizing these existing narratives, people can enact strategies to shift these beliefs in everything from how stories are told and how people are portrayed, to how children are taught and how decision-makers are informed. The result: Greater social justice and increased collaboration with Native American peoples in all aspects of society.”

As we gather at the end of this month, consider reflecting on these 10 directives from FirstNations.org that are often referenced in Native American works as commandments or actions to guide behavior: • Treat the Earth and all that dwell therein with respect • Remain close to the Great Spirit • Show great respect for your fellow beings • Work together for the benefit of all Mankind • Give assistance and kindness

wherever needed • Do what you know to be right • Look after the well-being of Mind and Body • Dedicate a share of your efforts to the greater Good • Be truthful and honest at all times • Take full responsibility for your actions.

(Editor’s Note: In researching this article about Native American Heritage Month, it is worth noting that I scrolled through many Google results before I found one that wasn’t a .gov website. The US government seems invested in promoting this as a “traditional” time to learn about, and celebrate with, Native peoples. However, many of those people view this as a traumatic time of year.)

Common Thanksgiving Hazards And

Thanksgiving is a time for celebration and togetherness, but the approaching

“W

ith the risks posed by the COVID-cold-flu season and the typical hazards associated with holiday festivities, ensuring a safe and enjoyable Thanksgiving should be your top priority,” says Dr. Michael Green, associate medical director at Northwell HealthGoHealth Urgent Care.

Dr. Green shared his top tips so you can enjoy your holiday while also staying safe.

Here are the top six recommendations:

1

Treating a cooking burn:

Cooking-related house fires reach an all-time high on Thanksgiving Day. The risk of a fire seems dangerous enough, but the holiday also offers plenty of opportunities to burn yourself. So how do you assess and treat a burn?

First, run the burned area under lukewarm or cool water (not icy cold, as this can cause more damage) for 10 to 15 minutes, and then check the burn for size and color. Most cooking-related burns can be treated with soothing creams like aloe and over-the-counter pain medications.

But immediate medical care should be sought for burns larger than 1-2 inches, those in a really sensitive area, or charred

skin that’s white, brown, leathery or shiny.

2

Don’t rinse a raw turkey:

Many people think rinsing a turkey before they cook it will wash away harmful bacteria that poultry can contain.

However, this practice causes bacteria-containing droplets to splash across the sink, cooking surfaces, utensils, and nearby food, contaminating the entire kitchen. Instead, pat your turkey with a paper towel before cooking, and then wash your hands with soap and water.

3

Quickly put away your leftovers: Bacteria like salmonel-

4

Know your knife safety protocols: More than 1/3 of

la and Clostridium perfingens – the so-called “buffet germ” that grows at room temperature – will give you tummy trouble.

Cook your turkey and stuffing to at least 1650 F and keep food at 1400 or warmer or 400 or cooler if it’s not being eaten right away. Consider making your stuffing outside the bird for an even safer option.

If you suspect food poisoning, drink lots of fluids, including electrolytes.

How To Avoid Them

holiday also comes with potential hazards the kitchen. Protect your fingers by using sharp knives, as dull blades require more pressure to cut. Curl your fingers and cut away from your body when trimming or deboning. Keep your knives off counters and out of sinks by washing and storing them immediately.

5

Sick-season protocols:

Health professionals expect an uptick in cases of COVID-19, influenza, and the common cold this holiday season. Consider putting protocols in place such as checking COVID and flu vaccine statuses. You can also request guests take rapid COVID-19 tests in advance of attendance. If your group has any high-risk individuals, you can consider even more rigorous testing protocols like PCR tests available at Northwell Health-GoHealth centers. Ask guests to screen themselves for any cold, flu or COVID symptoms and stay home even if symptoms are mild.

Remind your guests to practice safe hygiene by washing their hands regularly. The rule always bears repeating: wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds before and after touching your eyes, nose or mouth, prepping food, eating a meal, and using the restroom.

6

Prep before you play:

An afternoon of backyard football is a common Thanksgiving tradition. As a result, health professionals see an uptick in pulled muscles, sprained ankles, and broken bones. The best defenses are to exercise regularly throughout the year, avoid alcohol before the game, and stretch and warm up your body before engaging in intense play. Strains and sprains are the types of injuries better seen at Northwell HealthGoHealth than at your ER. “This Thanksgiving, let’s come together to celebrate safely and responsibly,” said Dr. Green. “But unexpected injuries happen, which is why our centers remain open on holidays.”

Somehow We Consumers Can’t Get A Break I love old movies. Currently Hollywood produces a few good ones, but they don’t compare to the Burt Lancaster, Gary Cooper, Elizabeth Taylor, Audrey Hepburn or Jack Nicholson performances.

Three recent developments in the business world made me think about Kirk Douglas when he performed in the Oliver Stone movie Wall Street. His most quotable scene was the one in which he told his breathless audience that “greed is good.”

No matter what you do in your daily life you are the victim of corporate greed. Let’s start with the pharmacy industry. At this very moment the industry is battling efforts by the Biden administration to lower the cost of various prescription drugs. The president had great success in dramatically reducing the cost of

INSIDE POLITICS Jerry Kremer

insulin for diabetics which impacts over ten million people, who are desperately in need of this drug.

I could single out dozens of other medications that are dramatically overpriced.

In our country’s history, there has never been a strike by pharmacy workers, but there will be one in the very near future. In an effort to cut costs and make bigger profits, pharmacy companies are failing to hire enough staff to adequately help the public. The suburbs may be luckier, but pharmacies in big cities are understaffed and under great pressure to provide prescription services. Rather than hire more staff, the big companies are suggesting that employees stop answering telephone calls so they can get prescriptions filled.

My next big peeve is the airline industry. I recently flew to and back from Austin, Texas after attending a family event. I was amazed how uncomfortable it was for the average coach passenger.

The airlines have taken away any available legroom and replaced

them with seating that is unbearable. There was no Wi-Fi available to keep you distracted from your misery, even though it was announced that Wi-Fi would be free. The good news was that you were eligible for a free package of pretzels and either a soft drink or a cup of water.

Moving away from the airlines, the next place where the consumer gets ripped off is at the supermarkets. The spike in costs started during the pandemic and continues to this day. Major food companies are declaring record profits based on overly inflated food prices. The average citizen blames it on the politicians, but the real culprits are the big corporations that have a captive customer.

Kirk Douglas told us that “greed is good”, but the average consumer will strongly disagree.

Another Year of Giving Thanks Growing up as a kid in an Italian family, every Thanksgiving landed us at Grandma’s house surrounded

by Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins.

Traditional Italian Thanksgiving feasts included courses of antipasto, lasagna, and turkey soup before the actual turkey. There was a football game, breaks between courses for Uncles to nap, and turkey sandwiches to be had after rounds of fruit platters, nuts, coffee, and Italian pastries.

As my generation of Baby Boomers aged and began hosting our own Thanksgiving celebrations, the extravagant feasts were reduced to big meals, eliminating most pre- and post-turkey courses.

We also started a tradition of going around the table asking each other what they were thankful for.

The adults in the room were mostly thankful for being healthy, wishful for World peace, or being happily employed. While I’m sure everyone spoke from their heart, I always questioned their truthfulness. It sounded like they were auditioning to become a contestant at the next Miss USA Beauty Pageant.

This year, I propose that those of us identifying what we are thankful for in 2023 be

LONG ISLAND LIVING Paul DiSclafani pdisco23@aol.com

more truthful. Here’s a quick list of things I’m grateful for in 2023.

Streaming Services: Although they entice you to subscribe with low monthly rates under $10, there are so many different streaming services it begins to add up. That said, I challenge anyone to think of something they would like to watch on TV that you can’t find on one of these services. They’ve created a new level of laziness called binge-watching.

Reclining/Reserved Seating in Movie Theatres: Remember the hassle of seeing a popular movie?

Although you bought a ticket, you never knew where you might

end up sitting or if you would find seats together until you walked into the theatre. Today, you not only reserve your seats (like at a ballgame), but with comfy reclining seats (and depending on the length of the movie), you can even catch a few zzz’s. The act of “saving seats” is now extinct.

Not having ever to make an excuse for not going into NYC again: I can’t tell you how many times I made an excuse to skip going into “The City” to see a pricy Broadway Show or dinner with a costly plate of spaghetti and meatballs. Thanks to all the crime and daily mayhem of NYC 2023, I just tell people I’m scared.

Urgent Care Centers: Gone are the days of physicians making house calls. However, in 2023, you can just pop into one of the many Urgent Care facilities sprouting up like 7-11s. They take X-rays, prescribe medication, and tell you to go to the ER if things are really bad; no appointment is necessary.

Every game of every sports team I root for is available on TV: I used to love attending live sporting events and spending a small fortune in the process. For many years, I endured

all the hassles of attending the game – getting there (and back), dealing with inclement weather, and rude, obnoxious people.

Mostly, with the tickets I could afford, I sat in the Upper Deck. Today, I relax in front of my 60-inch TV in a comfy chair and enjoy every pitch, error, interception, touchdown, goal, or fight in High Definition with ten replays of every play. Although I miss the excitement of being at the live event, I still hope to attend a few live sporting events in the future. Until then, where did I put that remote?

Recording TV Shows With a DVR: Long gone are the days of programming your VCR to tape your favorite shows when you couldn’t watch them “live.” Too many times, I sat down to watch Melrose Place in the ‘90s, only to find out I recorded something else on a different channel at a different time. The DVR records what you want, when you want at the touch of a button, then saves it until you delete it.

No more searching for (or buying) blank tapes. It’s a beautiful thing.

Have a great day of giving thanks, dear readers!

Managing Strong Emotions You just got home from a long day at work. You’re looking forward to ordering in and spending some time on the couch watching TV. A few moments later your partner comes rushing through the door, looking frantic. Your partner notes that they forgot to tell you that they invited their boss and his family over for dinner and only remembered when their boss mentioned it at the end of the day.

While you’d normally be happy about company and excited to host, this was not in your plan.

You’re angry and frustrated, and these emotions hit you like a ton of bricks. You are also experiencing a lot of anxiety in trying to figure out how you will pull this all off in such a short amount of time. You know that you will have a conversation with your partner about better communication and planning later this evening or early tomorrow. Right now, you need a way to process the emotions that are coming up in an effective way.

Ride the wave of the emotion.

This technique comes from

activity such as yoga or going a walk for a short time. You can also engage in a sensory exercise, such as listening to music or progressive muscle relaxation.

Marisa T. Cohen, PhD

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and involves experiencing the emotion, which can come in waves. If you were to put up walls or block the emotion, it would only become more intense and potentially be too much to handle down the road. While being in, or riding out your emotions can certainly be challenging, it enables you to experience them and to feel the impact of them. It may be helpful to redirect your attention for a short period of time as the physiological arousal you’re experiencing dissipates.

Redirecting your attention may involve engaging in a pleasant

Do the opposite.

Also from DBT, another approach is engaging in the opposite action. Your instinct in this scenario may be to lash out at your partner for the short notice, note that this is now their problem, and head out, slamming the door behind you.

While this may give temporary cathartic relief, it not only will not solve the problem, but may increase the tension between you and your partner. Instead, do the opposite. Approach your partner, come up with a game plan together, and get to work prepping.

Sure, it’s not what you wanted to do tonight, but you are

channeling the physiological energy of your emotions into something else entirely opposite, which is also helping you prepare for the guests. You may be surprised that as you approach the task of preparing a meal, it’s not as daunting as you initially anticipated, or that you’re making progress with your partner’s help faster than you thought, leading

to a reduction in your anger and frustration.

No matter which approach you take, having a calm and collected conversation with your partner at a later time is a must. However, in the moment, it is important to practice an effective coping technique so that you can manage the task at hand as a team.

The color of the head, neck, and upper parts of the body was reddish brown, irregularly banded, and marked with dark brown stripes, stronger on the head and neck and gradually becoming fainter until lost behind

the shoulder. There was a broad dark median dorsal stripe. The undersurface of the body, the legs, and the tail were nearly white, without stripes. The crest was high, surmounted by a standing mane, banded brown and white.

Let‛s Get Crafty: Cookie Cutter Bird Treats

While some birds travel south for the winter, lots of birds stay put.

These feathered friends could use some help getting through the winter months. What better way to help them than making some bird cookies?

Materials: 2.5 cups Bird seed 2 tbsp. Gelatin 2 tbsp. Honey Assorted Cookie cutters (the metal outline kind. Pick shapes that don’t have really sharp corners.)

Baking Sheet Parchment paper Straws or skewers String or ribbon Follow the directions to prepare the gelatin. Once mixed, add the honey and stir. When combined, add in the bird seed.

The mixture will be watery. To set, put

in the fridge for ten minutes.

Cover the baking sheet with parchment paper and lay out the cookie cutters. Pack the shapes with the bird seed mixture. Fill them to the top. Take a straw or skewer and push it into the bird seed shapes to make a hole.

Place the baking sheet into the fridge to finish setting the bird treats overnight.

Lace the hole with the string or ribbon.

Hang outside and watch for birds!

Mulching your leaves rather than raking and bagging is good for your lawn and the environment. As shredded leaves decompose, they feed your lawn, naturally.

Aerate

Aerating prevents soil from becoming compacted and covered with thatch—a thick layer of roots, stems and debris that blocks water,

oxygen and nutrients from reaching the soil.

Mow at the Right Height

Keep cutting your grass until the first hard frost. Find the just-right length for your species, typically between two to three inches, to keep your grass healthy when it turns cold.

Water Wisely

If you’re not getting at least an inch of water a week from Mother Nature, you’ll want to keep watering through the fall. Install watering solutions, such as smart controllers on irrigation systems, to help conserve water.

F

or Briana Neary of Massapequa High School, the sky — or rather, the ground — is truly the limit. After finishing a spectacular season of soccer, the senior is ready for where her passion for the sport takes her next.

Neary has played soccer for most of her life, and has recently committed to Siena College. The upstate Division 1 school is eager to bring on the forward, who has shined in

her two-year position as team captain.

While leaving behind her many-year positions as basketball guard and point guard, Neary will be embracing the sport which defined her from early childhood.

“My parents said I had so much energy as a kid — like, I would aways be running around. So that’s probably where it started,” she explained, laughing.

Massapequa girls soccer has been a powerhouse team for many years.

“This is a special sport in this town,” said coach Bruce Stegner in an interview with Newsday. “We have a lot of tradition and expectation, and they rise to the occasion every time and they want to be champions.” Neary has been a part of solidifying the team’s legacy over the last few years, winning counties with the team the last three years in a row. Neary recalls fondly when, as a Sophomore, the team won championships.

While they fought hard — winning 1 game and tying 4 — Massapequa met the end of their season in a recent game against Suffolk Class AAA

champion Ward Melville in the Long Island Championship, a rematch of last year’s AA title that Ward Melville won. Unable to clinch the victory for Massapequa was hard for Neary. “I’m sad we couldn’t finish things out this year,” she said.

Still, the bonds she has made with her teammates through soccer has completely changed her life. “I love it so much because the girls that you become so close with on the field, [that] translates to off the field. You’re always around

them and it leads to great chemistry on the field during games. The emotions that come over you really take control.

After you win a game, the feeling is like nothing else.”

Neary has already spent some time with her future teammates at Siena, and is eager to join them next year. “I watch a lot of their games and they seem like so much fun... I’m super excited for the opportunity to play with them.”

We here at Anton Media Group wish Briana the best of luck — go team!

n November 5, 2023, The Art Guild unveiled its High School Art Exhibition to a crowd of three hundred attendees. The exhibition showcased artwork in a variety of mediums including watercolor, oil, charcoal, colored pencil and digital media as well as some three-dimensional pieces. The submissions ranged in subject matter from self-portraits and still-life drawings to abstracts and social statements. In total, students from high schools all across Nassau County submitted almost three hundred works of art. “It was exciting to see such a high quality of work in this student exhibition”, said Juror Robyn Cooper, who currently teaches art at Adelphi University.

Eighty-one pieces of art were accepted into the show. “The maturity of their subject matter and wide range of materials and techniques made judging extremely challenging,” observed Ms. Cooper. “It is inspiring to see young artists have a strong sense of self and be able to communicate their ideas clearly through their art.”

Flood warning Solution: 22 Letters

© 2023 Australian Word Games Dist. by Creators Syndicate Inc.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Exercise takes a lot of energy, but it gives the energy back to you with interest. You’ll be a magnet for pursuits that follow this kind of math. Also, you’ll immediately detect the environments, people and activities with the potential to drain you, and you should run the other way from situations that detract from your power and focus.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Silence is a more popular virtue than truth, and for good reason. The truth requires discernment. Not all truths are kind, helpful, relevant or yours to share. On the other hand, silence is flexible. It fills and empties at the same time. We crave it, need it and depend on it for peace and contrast.

Silence gives shape to sound.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). A reality is coming together for you. You’ll see glimpses in your imagination and feel it in the sensations of your inner world. As you lean into what is forming, you’ll forge a path, first in your subconscious and then in your future. Nature will work through you as you magnetize just what you need to grow.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Because you know what it feels like to be at odds with yourself, you treasure the congruency you feel in this week of total alignment. You’ll feel good because there’s nothing you must compensate for or hide. All of you seems to want the same thing so you can put your whole self into pursuits, and the world makes room.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’re in an experimental mood and will come at relationships differently. Instead of performing to please people, you’ll take a step back and invite your curiosity to help you connect. You’ll be more observant and have fewer expectations. You’ll leave space for people to surprise you with their contributions.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). There’s a memory that still agitates you when it pops to mind. Rest assured, the event is safely kept in the past. You very well may be the only one who remembers or is bothered. You’ll get beyond this. After you chalk it up to a learning experience and let the negative associations go, peace will come to find you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You have fielded your share of tactlessness from outspoken people who are oblivious to the impact of their words. It’s made you uniquely qualified to manage groups, keep conversations on track and take care of sensitive souls in need of protection. You’ll be fondly regarded for making life kinder and safer.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Feeling isolated is a trick of the mind -- a misreading of your true status. You are not marooned on an island in the middle of an endless sea. You have people, lots of people, and each can connect you to a resource you need. You also have space to create your life. You’ll ponder all that’s available and feel spoiled for options.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

You’ll make sense of the illogical, find the common ground between people and understand the connection of seemingly disparate things. With these gifts, you’ll weave your life into an interesting tapestry of accomplishments, events and relationships. A graduation or the end of a project will give you a new sense of command over your time. You’ll be an integral part of a community effort. A financial win allows you to help loved ones. A special connection features laughter and travel.

NORTH ♠6 ♥K J 6 4 ♦ Q 10 4 ♣K J 9 6 4 WEST EAST ♠ Q 10 9 3 2 ♠KJ85 ♥5 2 ♥7 ♦AK ♦J8732 ♣Q 8 5 2 ♣ A 10 3 SOUTH ♠A74 ♥ A Q 10 9 8 3 ♦965 ♣7 The bidding: South West North East 1♥ 1♠ 3♥ 3♠ 4♥ Pass Pass 4♠ Pass Pass 5♥ Dble Opening lead — ace of diamonds.

Let’s say that in a given case you’re the opening leader against a suit contract and you decide to lead from a holding of A-K-x-x of a side suit. Let’s also say that your partnership agreement is that you lead the king from such holdings.

Now let’s suppose that in the same situation you hold the A-K alone.

In that case, according to standard convention, you would lead the ace followed by the king to indicate a doubleton. You hope your partner

can then gain the lead and play a third round of the suit for you to ruff.

This brings us to the accompanying deal where West led the A-K of diamonds, on which East played the 2-3 and declarer the 5-6. West then shifted to a low spade, expecting his partner, who had strongly supported spades during the bidding, would win with the ace and return a diamond for him to ruff.

But South won with the ace, drew trump and finished down only one (200 points) instead of down two (500 points), which would have been the result had West led a club instead of a spade at trick three.

East complained bitterly, contending that West should have led a club at trick three. He argued that if he had held the ace of spades, he would have played his jack of diamonds on West’s king at trick two as a suit-preference signal, indicating that he had an entry in spades.

This would be in keeping with the standard agreement that the play of an unnecessarily high card in this type of situation is a signal for the higher-ranking side suit to be led.

By extension, East argued further, his play of the three of diamonds — a low card — asked for a club return at trick three.

East was right.

SCHOOL NEWS Multicultural Luncheon At Syosset High School

Jericho School District Named Best District In NYS By Niche The Jericho School District was named the best school district in New York State

by Niche.com for 2024. Jericho was also named the sixth best school district in the United States, taking almost 11,000 school districts into consideration.

Jericho was also named the safest school district in New York, seventh safest in the United States and the best place to teach in New York, and third best in the United States. Jericho’s elementary schools, middle school and high school were also highly ranked.

“Having Jericho ranked as the best school district in New York is an incredible honor and accomplishment. It is a testament to the supportive Jericho school community, the highly dedicated teachers and staff, and a collaborative and involved Board of Education,” said Superintendent Hank Grishman. “The fact that our schools are open enrollment and accessible to all resident students further emphasizes the significance of this accomplishment. What also makes this list so noteworthy is that the criteria go well beyond test scores – several other meaningful factors are considered, including student and parent reviews, diversity, and student/teacher ratio.”

Niche rigorously analyzes data from the U.S. Department of Education and over

Alexander’s Angels Annual Buddy Walk

he Halloween-themed Alexander’s Angels 17th annual Buddy Walk®, ironically nicknamed Walk of Doom! had to be canceled.

Scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 21, the incessant rain all day Friday, forecasted to continue until early afternoon on Saturday, would have already been enough to render the traditional Buddy Walk® doomed. But the horror continued with the provider’s cancellation of the tents needed to cover activities. That was the nail on the coffin, leaving no choice but to cancel the event.

Attempts to move the Buddy Walk® from Tanner Park in Copiague to another date and to other sites also failed, making the name Walk of Doom! truly appropriate.

Although the central activity of the Buddy Walk® is a one-mile trek with all teams and their buddies walking together, a slew of fun activities engages the participants and invited guests throughout the rest of the 4.5-hour event. The eagerly awaited annual gathering keeps all teams busy planning for months in advance. Many teams bring their own tents which this year had been decorated to follow the Halloween theme, and a time had been set aside for the youngsters to Trick or Treat from tent to tent. All those plans were dampened by the rain, but not so the spirits of those planning to attend.

Through it all, these inspirational individuals showed the true meaning of “perseverance” by having private family celebrations and remaining super excited as they continue planning future events.

breasts and are often combined to provide a more youthful look. Adding labiaplasty and vaginal rejuvenation is a popular treatment that improves laxity, urinary incontinence, and sensation.

We apply our modern surgical approach to eyelid lifts, facelifts, mini face lifts and Dr. Greenberg’s proprietary micro mini facelift. Many times, we combine these advanced facial procedures with deep laser resurfacing, and facial fat transfers. An eyelid lift only takes about an hour and provides a very youthful appearance to both the upper and lower lids. A facelift, whether it is mini, micromini, lower, or a full lift, takes years off facial appearance. A face lift addresses excess skin, rejuvenates the neck and lifts the jowls. Mini, or modified facelifts are often performed on younger patients before the signs of aging are advanced. Overall, a natural look is of utmost importance.

We individually design a treatment plan tailored to each patient’s unique goals and to enhance natural beauty.

Dr. Stephen T. Greenberg offers complimentary consultations at his Woodbury, Southampton and Manhattan offices. To schedule an appointment, or request additional information, call 516-364-4200 or visit www.GreenbergCosmeticSurgery.com.

Henry Ford once said, when everything goes against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it. Despite setbacks, like a plane with the wind against it, Alexander’s Angels is taking off anew determined to soar once again!

Alexander Gomez-Nieto, now living in Simsbury, CT, was born in Scottsdale, AZ, in 2001 to two Long Islanders. His family wanted to participate in a Buddy Walk on Long Island, but there was no event. After years of effort, Alexander’s Angels was formed, and the first Buddy Walk was held in 2007, with 560 people attending, even during inclement weather conditions.

At age 21, Alexander, a graduate from Simsbury High School, is a very active young man. He has learned to swim, has taken horseback riding, is a member of a baseball team, loves to go to the movies, enjoys playing his electric guitar and has been part of a theater class.

Daughter Of Holocaust Survivors Shares Her Family Story In Documentary

L LI IW IW LIW

LONG ISLAND WEEKLY

Film is nominated for an award at Big Apple Festival JENNIFER CORR jcorr@antonmediagroup.com

W

hat was originally supposed to be a movie meant to be kept in the family is now being shown in film festivals, including the Catalina Film Festival in California that took place from Sept. 20 to 24 and the Big Apple Film Festival that took place from Nov. 3 to 9 in New York City. The film was nominated for an award.

The film, Stories For My Children’s Children: Lessons From The Holocaust, centers Sarah Putter Rolnick, a Woodmere resident whose parents survived the Holocaust. Her son, Daniel Rolnick, who now lives in Lynbrook, had tried to make a film with his iPhone, but he ended up reaching out to movie director Christopher Wells, originally from Glen Cove, who had done documentaries before.

“They just wanted to keep the film for the family,” Wells said. “But when I read the notes of where this was going to go, I said well I think other people need to see this.”

Inside her home, Putter Rolnick shares the stories of her parents, displaying photos and documents she has, in an hour long film.

“It’s been an emotional roller coaster,”

Rolnick said, later adding “Every time it connects with people, we feel really good about it.”

Putter-Rolnick’s mother, Genowefa Pioro, spent more than two years of her life living inside a barn, cellar and attic of a farmhouse 40 miles from Kraków, Poland with her family due to the generosity of the Oshika family.

“It’s not, remember the Holocaust, it’s about, remember to be good to each other,” Rolnick said. “Remember that everybody is a human. It’s about remembering that in the face of evil and horror, even one person can make a difference, and so that’s what we want people to remember.”

And while Pioro and her family may have stayed safe from the Nazi regime, they certainly suffered while they were in hiding from Nov. 8, 1942 until Jan. 20, 1945. They hid in different areas of the farm depending on the time of day and season, and often slept during the day in uncomfortable conditions. They used a chamber pot as a toilet, a bucket of water to clean themselves, and food was sparse. They had no way of connecting to loved ones. There was a constant fear of being discovered. In fact, during a routine search of the countryside, a Nazi was one hay bale away from finding the family inside the barn.

Rolnick, after graduating college, had the opportunity to visit the farm where his

grandmother was hid, and meet with the family there.

“The whole trip was incredible, because some of it was physically challenging because I didn’t speak Polish and they didn’t speak English, but through lots of desire to communicate, we had a great two days,” Rolnick said. “Personally, it was emotionally overwhelming, just to think about the suffering they went through.”

Putter Rolnick’s father, Roman Putter, lived in Poland and had served in the army, as did his brother. Before the war, Putter was married (not to Genowefa Pioro) and had two sons. In March of 1943, the Nazis came to “relocate” the Putter family when their older son was 10 and younger son was about four or five. They separated Putter’s wife and youngest son as he tried to intervene, but the soldier smashed Putter’s face with his rifle.

Putter, his older son, his brother and sisterin-law were together in a camp in Kraków from March of 1943 to December of 1943, when Putter’s son was taken away. Putter, his brother and sister-in-law, who were then moved to other camps, survived the war, but his wife, two sons and nephew did not, in addition to six other family members who did not survive.

After the war, the Pioro family was unable to return home, so they went to Kraków, as did Putter. Pioro and Putter ended up meeting in September of 1945, and quickly

got married.

They moved to a displaced persons camp and lived there from the fall of 1945 to June of 1949.

Putter Rolnick was born in July of 1946, and in June of 1949, the family emigrated to the United States aboard the USS General Mueller, an American troop ship.

Later in life, Putter Rolnick came to learn that her father survived because he was a “Schindler Jew,” meaning he was a part of roughly 1,200 Jewish people who were saved

by Oskar Schindler during the Holocaust.

Because of his intervention, this group was afforded protected status as industrial workers.

In the process of making the film, Wells said Putter Rolnick was nervous, so he’d have her look at her son, Rolnick, while she was talking.

“Sarah is a little bit of a celebrity at these festivals because she’s such a sweet person, and everyone loves her and recognizes her,” Wells said.

The film was shot over four days, one day for B-Roll. The editing process took threeand-a-half months.
