Combating homelessness with the Branford Marsalis Quartet

By ANDRE SILVA asilva@liherald.com

Over 80 patrons of Molloy University’s theater program gathered last week to raise money for Bethany House, which helps woman and children experiencing homelessness.

Bethany House, which has facilities in Baldwin, Bellmore Roosevelt and has sheltered the homeless for more than 30 years, partnered with Molloy, a longtime supporter,

to host a fundraiser at Molloy’s Madison Theatre last Friday. It featured Grammy-winning jazz saxophonist Branford Marsalis and his quartet.

The event began with hors d’oeuvres and beverages at a pre-concert reception in the Larini Room, on the second floor of the theater.

Hochul’s affordable housing plan alarms Curran

By BEN FIEBERT bfiebert@liherald.com

People have left New York in droves this past decade, and Brian Curran is ready to put that trend at an end.

But doing so could mean finding some common ground between the Assemblyman and Gov. Kathy Hochul, who have some different ideas on affordable housing.

During her State of the State address earlier this month, Hochul introduced a plan that would build 800,000 new homes over the next 10 years across the state.

Affordable homes.

Curran agrees with Hochul that the lack of affordable housing is a major contributor to the mass fleeing of residents to other states, but fixing it is another story.

“The governor talked about migration of people out of New York right off the bat at the State of the State address,” Curran said. “This alarm has been sounded for the better part of the decade. But now, as even the governor noted, you can’t ignore it anymore.”

Curran returned to his Assembly seat earlier this month, after winning the November election against Judy Griffin in November — who had ousted him just four years before. Curran had first won his Assembly seat in 2010 after spending three years as mayor of Lynbrook.

Nearly 300,000 people left New York between July 2020 and July 2021, according to census data. Although New York City’s

population jumped by 700,000 to 8.8 million over the last decade, the pandemic wiped away much of those gains, Curran said, through the aftermath of inflation, higher taxes, and even higher rent.

It’s the rent that Hochul is focused on the most, citing the Population Reference Bureau claims that more than half of New York renters are “rent-burdened” — meaning they pay more than 30 percent of their income on rent.

That, the governor says, is the secondhighest rate in the nation.

Rent is bad, Curran said, but it’s something else that’s much more in the government’s control that is chasing people away.

“I think, very simply, the reason why people are leaving is because of high taxes,” the Assemblyman said. “Unfortunately, nowhere in Hochul’s State of the State did she ever talk about presenting a proposal in cutting taxes.”

And even Hochul’s proposal is missing some key variables.

“There are factors that you must consider before building these affordable homes,” Curran said. “Factors like how density affects the communities must be considered.”

Hochul’s proposal includes designating a half-mile radius around train lines like the Long Island Rail Road as fast-tracked property for higher-density — and, hopefully, more cost-effective — homes. While the governor wants local municipalities to take charge to implement such a plan, she

Ben Fiebert/Herald

BRIAN CURRAN HAS returned to his old Assembly seat, and already has his eyes set on tackling the housing crisis afflicting so many on Long Island. has threatened to remove obstacles to development from the state level if local governments drag their feet.

Yet, such a plan could “over densify” communities, Curran said, which will make them lose their “Nassau County character.”

Curran also worries about what this means for local governments.

“She appears to be advocating for taking away the authority of local municipalities — including the villages of Lynbrook,

Freeport, the Town of Hempstead, West Hempstead, Baldwin and Valley Stream,” Curran said. “Think about what this halfmile radius will do. On the Malverne line, there are all residential houses up and down the line. However, there is no dead space in that area to build.”

Maintaining that local autonomy is something Curran says he’ll fight for.

“The governor believes that she can come in here and tell the people of Malverne, Rockville Centre, Lynbrook, Baldwin and Freeport to just accept these drastic changes,” he said. “I think that’s for elected officials and residents in those areas to figure out how they want to go about creating affordable housing.”

And there are some good ideas already here, Curran said. For example? Lynbrook. The village worked on the site of the old Mangrove Feather factory on Broadway to help develop it into a $95 million, 201-unit transit-oriented apartment complex. It was part of negotiations that went on between the developer — Breslin Realty — and the village for years.

No matter what plans ultimately come out of Albany to address the state’s — and region’s — out-migration, Curran hopes they don’t become singularly focused.

“We should do everything we can to drive down the costs of living in New York,” he said. “But the creation of all these units isn’t necessarily going to lower the overall costs of people living in these communities in the first place.”

Chrissie Williams, a SUNY New Paltz information officer, said Juliet Bernstein, of North Baldwin, Violet Cochrane, of North Baldwin, and Lex Rizzo-Harrell, of Baldwin, were recognized on its Dean’s List for the fall 2022 semester — a recognition for students who excel academically and earn at least a 3.3 grade-point average in a semester with a full-time course load.

SUNY New Paltz is located 90 minutes from New York City, and is comprised of approximately 8,000 undergraduate and graduate students, with schools focusing in business, liberal arts, engineering, the fine and performing Arts, and Education.

Likewise, Nkosi Cooper, of Baldwin, made the Dean’s list at Hamilton College for the second semester in a row. Cooper, who was born in Baldwin and attended Brookside Elementary School, is a senior at Hamilton Col-

lege. He was an avid basketball player in Baldwin and on Long Island and was recruited by Hamilton College, where he played for the Continentals during his Freshman year, before being injured. Cooper is studying for a major in sociology and a minor in economics.

At Buffalo State University, Steven Magloire, of North Baldwin, was named on the Fall 2022 Dean’s List at Buffalo State University. Magloire is majoring in Pre-Business Administration.

Simiarly, Michael Prata, of Baldwin, was one of more than 1250 SUNY Oneonta students who earned Dean’s List honors for the fall 2022 semester.

Prata is studying Digital & Studio Art. To qualify for the Dean’s List at SUNY Oneonta, a student must earn a gradepoint average of 3.5 or higher while carrying a course load of 12 hours or more.

WHAT’S NEWS IN AND OUT OF THE CLASSROOM

HERALD SCHOOLS

with Michael and Suzanne Ettinger Attorneys-at-Law

In Wills We Trusted Ask most people if they’ve done their estate planning and a common answer is, “Yes, I have a will.” However, estate planning is not just a plan for death. It’s a plan for life that addresses what happens if you become disabled. About half of us will eventually becoming disabled.

You can choose ahead of time who will be in charge of your affairs if you become disabled through a power of attorney, health care proxy, and a trust.

A will cannot provide for disability. A will tells the world where you want your assets to go when you die. A will is probated, which means proven, in court, and becomes a public document. Those without their own living trust plan, with their personal choices for who will be in charge if they become disabled, risk getting the state’s plan of guardianship proceedings where the court chooses who will handle your affairs if you become disabled.

Probate court proceedings can go smoothly but they may also be complicated, such as having a special needs child or disinheriting a child. Also, if you own property

in another state, a trust makes more sense than a will because you may deed the out-of-state property into the name of your trust, and avoid both a New York probate and a probate in the other state.

Having a will as an estate plan does nothing to protect your assets from long-term care expenses for either care at home or in a nursing facility. Without a trust to protect your assets from long-term care costs, by the time you pass there may be no assets left for your heirs.

Trusts can also protect inheritances from children’s divorces, lawsuits and creditors and pass those assets by blood instead of by marriage. In today’s world, a “simple will” often does more harm than good by giving the client a false sense of security that their affairs are arranged.

Elder law estate planning addresses the issues mentioned above, plus many more, including funeral and burial instructions, organ donation, and final instructions to the family.

Lesson learned.

With two starters benched in the opening minutes of last Friday night’s game at Port Washington for arriving late to pregame, the Baldwin boys’ basketball team overcame an early 12-0 deficit before rallying for a 58-55 win over the Vikings to put a stranglehold on first place in the Conference AA-2 standings.

Jaylen Brown tied his career high with 20 points, including five clutch free throws in the final minute, and fellow senior Dylan Madden added a varsity-best 17 points for the defending Long Island Class AA champions, who swept the season series with Port to improve to 9-0 in conference play and 14-1 overall despite having just three players back from last year’s squad.

“If anybody told me at this point we’d be 14-1 and 9-0, I’d say no way,” Baldwin head coach Darius Burton said. “This team has really shown me a lot.”

The Vikings (10-5, 6-3) dropped into a second-place tie with Plainview and East Meadow in the division.

The makeshift lineup was noticeable when Port Washington scored the first 10 points of the game in just under two minutes to send its home crowd into a Frenzy.

The Vikings pushed their lead to 12 with 4:17 left in the first before Baldwin finally scored its first points on Joshua Petion’s bucket with 2:30 remaining.

“Rules are rules,” Burton said. “You have to be there on time. No one person is bigger than the program and we had to adjust, unfortunately, on the fly. We went smaller to start, and it was a hostile environment. Port Washington came ready to play.”

Baldwin finally settled down and outscored Port 16-4 in the second quarter and took its first lead with 1:40 left on Madden’s long trey from the top of the arc. Madden’s two free throws 15 seconds later and Petion’s foul shot in the final minute pushed the Bruins’ lead to 22-18 at intermission.

The Bruins led by 15 with just over four minutes left in the game before the Vikings put forth a fierce rally behind Trevor

SOPHOMORE CHASE TIMBERLAKE chipped in 5 points as Baldwin overcame an early deficit to beat Port Washington last Friday night.

Amalfitano, who spearheaded a 13-1 run with three 3-pointers to cut the deficit to 53-50 with just over a minute left. Brown converted two free throws with 43.6 seconds left, but Camren Welker drilled another 3-pointer for Port with 20.7 seconds remaining.

Brown hit two more foul shots four seconds later and – after Welker converted a layup – made another with 1.4 seconds left to ice what Burton felt was one of the biggest wins of the season.

“I have to say it’s definitely up there,” he

said. “Port is a great team. Due to the circumstances of things that happened, I’m very proud of the final result.”

The first meeting between the schools on Dec. 17 was close throughout before Baldwin emerged with a 47-41 win. The Bruins’ only defeat was against Cardozo (Queens) on Jan. 8.

Petition and emerging eighth-grader Peyton Howell had eight points apiece, sophomore Chase Timerlake added five, and sophomore Jalen Waters had a strong defensive game with multiple steals.

Changing a person’s life trajectory for the better mnolan@liherald.com

That age-old conundrum for young job seekers — to get your first job you need experience — remains a hurdle for many. Teens and young adults in the Town of Hempstead, however, have an advantage.

Thanks to a number of programs offered through the HempsteadWorks Career Center, young adults up to 24 years old can get help finding that first job, especially the one that ultimately leads to a career with a sustainable living wage.

In fact, the amount of assistance offered through the HempsteadWorks’ youth programs is indicative of just how far career counselors go to help younger job seekers — and those with less than stellar backgrounds — obtain work.

“For some of them, this is their first time working,” said youth services coordinator Myesha Arvon. “That’s pretty exciting.”

Arvon has helped Hempstead young adults find sustainable, interesting jobs for 20 years. Adults she helped as teens return with their children seeking advice.

And a big part of that ability to establish deep, longterm relationships with people is Arvon’s own experience.

She herself struggled with employment as a young person. Her authenticity when speaking to others in a similar position is just one reason she can’t even come close to approximating how many she has helped over the years.

The program’s main goal is to provide young adults a genuine opportunity to establish a career, Arvon said — regardless of their background. HempsteadWorks helps many teens and young adults who struggle with myriad issues.

Those barriers are often significant: teen pregnancy, homelessness, economic disadvantages, criminal justice

issues, to name just a few.

“The biggest piece they’re missing is that support,” Arvon said. “I become that support. Whatever it is that they’re coming in dealing with, they can talk to me because I’ve dealt with it, and I’m never going to sugarcoat anything.”

When she first meets someone looking for help. Arvon performs an informal assessment. She finds out what type of people they are friends with, and if they’re living at home or not —all to determine what services they need.

“Even before I find out why they’re here, I speak to them and get them to open up,” Arvon said. “Just them

coming here is huge. Just literally walking in the door. It’s all about that first step.”

Nene Alameda, a business services representative at HempsteadWorks who oversees many of the office’s programs, said youth services is especially important to Hempstead because the program improves lives.

“The change is not just that individual,” Alameda said.

“It’s generational change. If we change one person, we can change the trajectory of not only their life, but their future children.”

The summer youth employment program is a six-week paid work experience for those between 16 and 20 who are either Hempstead town residents, or live in Long Beach.

They also have to meet low-income criteria.

HempsteadWorks offers both out-of-school and inschool programs for young people — an especially important helping 14- and 15-year-olds.

The youth services branch of HempsteadWorks provides academic tutoring, career exploration sessions and more for teens who may not have a concrete concept of their future.

“We start by just giving them tools they need to succeed,” Arvon said. “They may not necessarily need a job immediately, so we break it down to them that these are the different careers available. It gets them thinking about jobs they may not have ever thought about.”

While the programs and support are designed to give teens and young adults the greatest chance of success, ultimately, each individual must work for their own future. At some point, Arvon says, she must step back.

“Some people ask me, ‘How do you not get involved in their personal life?’” Arvon said. “That’s where my boundary comes in. I can help you to a certain point. I can give you guidance. I can tell you what I think would be best.

“But ultimately, you’re going to have to make that decision. And some don’t make the right decision.”

District Superintendent Shari Camhi said that creating a space like the Collabo-

“Every year we don’t make changes to how we engage with young people in our schools is an opportunity lost,” Camhi said. “We are doing this by making changes in our school system.”

Timeless values, visible results

atholic Schools Week is upon us — Jan. 29-Feb. 4 — with the goal of raising the awareness of Catholic schools as an outstanding educational option.

The week is set aside to promote the unique nature of the Catholic schools in each community. Schools typically observe the annual celebration week with Masses and open houses to thank parishioners, to welcome visitors and to introduce new families to the benefits of a Catholic education. It frequently kicks off with a Mass and open house on the first Sunday (Jan. 29), and a series of events designed to recognize the contributions of students, parents and faculty during the course of the week. Many schools offer additional open houses and opportunities to visit during the week as well.

Through these events, schools focus on the value Catholic education provides to young people and its contributions to our church, our communities and our nation. In addition to the internal events (teacher and parent recognition events, school ‘spirit’ days, special assemblies, etc) it is also a week where the schools open their doors to the families of their Parish/Parishes they serve, and to the general public who might be considering the benefits of a Catholic education.

As a family considering a Catholic education, how do I learn more?

Catholic Schools Week features Open Houses at the schools where parents and students can visit the school(s) they think they might be interested in and get a tour of the

Regardless of how you make your decision, the schools are ‘open books’ during this week, providing whatever information prospective families desire to support their decision.

students from a public school background.

Students qualify for Catholic high school through a test for 8th graders that is administered in October of each year. Typically the students from Catholic elementary schools are best prepared for the academic rigor, the integrated program of faith and values, and the service orientation of the high schools.

Virtually all of the students from Catholic elementary school (99 percent) are admitted to a Catholic high school with the vast majority getting into the school that is their first choice.

You can learn more about the high school entrance exam, and about the Catholic High Schools at chsee.org.

Are non-Catholics welcome in the schools?

The schools are welcoming places to everyone without regard to race, religion or national origin. A religion class is a requirement, students participate in Liturgies, and faith is an integrated part of daily activities, but many schools have a significant population of students who attend because of the quality of the education alone.

How can I learn more or choose the school(s) I would like to visit?

There is a resource for families on the Internet that provides a very complete picture of the Catholic elementary school experience.

It features an interactive map that is your guide to each of Long island’s distinctive Catholic schools, and that lets you view the geographic options for your children at licatholicelementaryschools.org.

CATHOLIC SHOOLS WEEK

BALDWIN HERALD — January 26, 2023

Faith-based education

Students put moral values to work in their lives every day Strong spiritual guidance is an essential part of daily activities at Long Island’s Catholic schools, creating a special sense of community among children, families, teachers, and the local parish, which reinforces moral values and an abiding respect for others. Resourceful instructors use powerful spiritual teachings and realworld experiences to bring these values to life for children, while our smaller classes allow for more personalized and productive interaction between students and teachers.

Applying strong values in many selfless ways Catholic school students apply the moral and spiritual lessons they learn in the real world by participating in charitable community initiatives throughout the year and by responding every day to others in a respectful and helpful manner. This spirit of caring and community in our students helps to give them the enduring moral foundation to become active, contributing members of society.

Through faith we grow A strong Catholic identity as taught in Long Island’s Catholic schools matters.

These schools are uniquely empowered to help children in some very important ways. Catholic schools: √ Help socialize children in a positive way.

√ Reinforce the positive values that you live in your family. √ Reassure children that they are safe and loved, and that God loves them.

√ Teach children that their value is not based on how others see them. √ Feature teachers who are models of the faith.

LIPA rolls out plan to lower electric bills Customers could get a break depending on when they use power

By BEN FIEBERT

How time-of-day rates would work

bfiebert@liherald.com

Anyone who’s taken a ride-hailing service like Uber likely knows all about surge pricing — too much demand, not enough drivers equal higher rates.

If it works for getting around, why can’t it work for electricity? At least that’s what the Long Island Power Authority is thinking, introducing a plan it says could modernize electricity rates by making it cheaper for homes to use power when there’s the least demand on the grid.

It’s called the time-of-day rate — something LIPA hopes to roll out next year. It offers one rate for times when demand is high, but lower rates for periods when not so many people are using electricity.

The new system, according to LIPA, could mean eight out of every 10 customers will pay the same or even less on the new system without making a single change on how or when they use electricity.

“Starting in 2024, the time-of-day rate will become the standard rate,” said Justin Bell, LIPA’s vice president of public policy and regulatory affairs. “Our goal is that most of our customers will go on a time-of-day rate. We’re also going to be transitioning our existing customers, but

The Long Island Power Authority wants to implement a time-of-day rate program beginning next year as a way to encourage customers to spread out their electrical usage throughout the day and night.

It’s intended to make rates cheaper during off-peak hours like from 6 a.m., to 3 p.m., and again from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. A ‘super off-peak’ schedule would run from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. they will also have the option to choose the regular flat rate.”

The name of the program — “time-ofday” — says it all.

“For the standard offering, there’s going to be two prices,” Bell said. “There will be one peak price from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. on weekdays, and then all other hours will be a lower price.”

There also will still be a flat rate, which is the same structure customers already pay today, But then there is a third option, Bell added, with what’s being called a “super off-peak period,” which will provide a rate for electricity

Peak times would run weekdays from 3 to 7 p.m., except on federal holidays.

Customers not sure about the new system could try it with LIPA’s 12-month ‘bill protection guarantee.’ If an electric bill is higher on the time-of-day and super off-peak rate than it would’ve been on a flat rate at the end of 12 months, LIPA will refund the difference.

–Ben Fiebert used when demand is lowest — typically between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.

The new structure could ultimately save money, Bell said, simply by making small changes in their daily routine. For instance, someone could save $4 each month simply by doing their laundry late at night. They can save another $43 by charging their electric car when most others are asleep.

These are rates that not only benefit customers, Bell said, but also the environment.

“The peak period is one of the most carbon-intensive times in terms of ener-

gy production,” he said. “So, by getting folks to use more electricity at other times and less at the peak time, we can reduce the carbon that we generate in the power grid, and it also lowers our future investment needs.”

Some of the moves are coming ahead of an impending state law that requires New York to generate 70 percent of its power from renewable sources by 2030, and to actually zero-out power sector emissions by 2040.

Achieving that will likely require some major capital investments from utilities like LIPA, but it’s one way, Bell said, Long Island can stay ahead of the game.

“If we are able to avoid putting all of that new demand on the peak, then we can save everybody a lot of money by avoiding expensive infrastructure upgrades to our transmission and distribution system,” he said.

LIPA has scheduled a pair of public hearings on Tuesday, Feb. 21, and will accept written public comments until Monday, Feb. 27 by emailing todpubliccomments@lipower.org. When and where the meetings will be held have not yet been announced.

The LIPA board could approve the new rate plan during its March 29 meeting in Uniondale.

Their pairing • Samanea New York of digital technology with the artworks 1500 Old Country Road, Westbury enhances light and hues, allowing spectators to completely immerse themselves in the images, accompanied by a lively soundtrack.

It’s a look at Van Gogh’s art — freed from its frames you might say — that puts the observer front and center, incorporating both still and moving art. Some 300 masterpieces — including, of course, such classics as “The Starry Night,” “Sunflowers” and “Café Terrace at Night” — come alive, appear and disappear, flowing across multiple surfaces, the minutiae of details enveloping visitors’ heightened senses. The show is projected on every surface around you, making you feel as though you have stepped directly into a Van Gogh painting.

Occupying more than 300 square feet, the intent of “Beyond Van Gogh” is to represent the full scope of the artist’s creative life.

“We are telling a narrative,” says art historian Fanny Curtat, who consulted on the project. “There’s a natural and chronological progression in Van Gogh’s work that resonates strongly with the core of this show, which was to go beyond the darkness of Van Gogh’s legend.

We all know that he’s famous for cutting his ear and his mental health issues. But out of the darkness he turned to light and beauty. Our focus is on the sheer power of the work itself. There’s an irony to the fact that Van Gogh tends to be remembered for the darkness of his life when most of his work is filled with bright colors and beauty.”

The evolution of his creative output comes though as visitors

Friends of the Brothers visit the area with their dynamic tribute to the Allman Brothers Band. Their powerful celebration of the Allman Brothers, featuring musicians closely associated with the original band, continues the brotherhood with passion, committed to the ideals of every night being special and unique. Their firsthand experience with the Allman Brothers Band and their deep knowledge of the repertoire, its roots and heritage allows them to play with an unrivaled depth. They honor the music, while playing the tunes as if they were their own.

experience the images, moving from one room to another. The Education Room leads into the unique Waterfall Room that flows into the Immersive Experience Room. The paintings appear on projection-swathed walls, inviting guests to fully involve themselves in the incredible detail of his work and be enveloped in his ever-shifting, swirling and colorful flowers, cafes and stunning landscapes. And, hearing the artist’s own dreams, thoughts and words set to a symphonic score completes the experience.

“It is so clear when you look at his whole production, that he goes from darkness to light,” Curtat adds. “His work centered on joy, and you’ll see a sense of purpose. He goes from darker shades, when he starts to paint, to a brighter palette. Then when he gets to Paris and sees the Impressionists there’s an explosion of vibrant colors. And when he gets to the south of France he really develops his own style, which is so easily identifiable.”

The 19th century meets 21st century in this compelling artistic journey.

Mike DelGuidice and his band always give it their all, especially when playing Billy Joel’s iconic songs. DelGuidice leads his band, Big Shot, in a rousing concert that highlights the Piano Man’s decades of hits. Like his idol, DelGuidice has become one of the area’s most celebrated performers, balancing his schedule between performing with Big Shot and touring with Joel. DelGuidice, as with Joel, grew up mastering several instruments including bass guitar, guitar, piano, and drums. He’s renowned for his encyclopedic knowledge of the Joel catalog, which caught the attention of Joel himself, who ultimately brought him on stage with him.

explained that the concert was a collaborative effort between the organization and Molloy, which have partnered in the past to raise money for the shelters. At the annual Boxtown event, Molloy students camp out in boxes in the campus square to simulate a night of homelessness, and raise money for woman and children experiencing the real thing.

King said that Ellen Foley, a Bethany House volunteer, came up with the idea for a fundraising performance at the theater after visiting with her family last year. Foley said that her husband, Jack, suggested that she and her colleagues at Bethany House partner to create a combined event.

Zimmerman said she discussed the idea with other members of the Bethany House board, and the organization and the university joined forces.

Angela Zimmerman, the director of alumni relations at Molloy and a fellow Bethany House board member, said that Molloy is a natural partner for Bethany House, because their missions complement each other. Bethany House, like Molloy, Zimmerman said, was founded by a member of the Dominican Sisters of the Immaculate Conception, and shares values much like Molloy’s four pillars — study, service, spirituality and community.

“Through our office of development,” Zimmerman explained, “Molloy University students have done everything from social work to mental health counseling to speech pathology at Bethany House.”

At the same time, she added, by supporting homeless women and their children, Bethany House effectively roots out homelessness two generations at a time.

Edward Thompson, Molloy’s vice president for advancement, said that Nassau County residents have an obligation to help others who are down on their luck, as Bethany House does. He is motivated not so much by charity, Thompson said, as by an obligation to Molloy’s mission to serve the community and help the downtrodden.

Doug O’Dell, executive director of Bethany House, said that it differentiates itself from other shelters because it is a community organization as well. Some people come to Bethany House, he said, because they are struggling with financial issues, domestic abuse or substance abuse, and there they can feel safe, recover from their trauma and prepare to take on the world again.

“You walk into one of our Bethany homes and you smell the food cooking, and see a decoration that says, ‘You’re welcome here,’” O’Dell said. “They then know that they’re home.”

Molloy President Jim Lentini said he was impressed by the work Bethany House does for woman in Nassau County, and was committed to maintaining the longstanding relationship between the organization and the university.

Lentini was impressed by Marsalis’s performance as well. “Branford Marsalis

and his quartet displayed a rare form of jazz artistry in what was a spectacular concert,” Lentini said. “Their set of original compositions was performed with a kind of nuance and sophistication that only master players can execute. And they did so, beautifully. The full house in Madison loved every minute of the perfor mance, which drew enthusiastic applause after each solo and throughout the evening. It was a great night on the Madison stage.”

Dated: January 25, 2023 THE NASSAU COUNTY TREASURER Mineola, NewYork ___________________ TERMS OF SALE Such tax liens shall be sold subject to any and all

superior tax liens of sovereignties and other municipalities and to all claims of record which the County may have thereon and subject to the provisions of the Federal and State Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Acts.

However, such tax liens shall have priority over the County’s Differential Interest Lien, representing the excess, if any, of the interest and penalty borne at the maximum rate over the interest and penalty borne at the rate at which the lien is purchased.

The Purchaser acknowledges that the tax lien(s) sold pursuant to these Terms of Sale may be subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/or may become subject to such proceedings which may be commenced during the period in which a tax lien is held by a successful bidder or the assignee of same, which may modify a Purchaser’s rights with respect to the lien(s) and the property securing same. Such bankruptcy proceedings shall not affect the validity of the tax lien. In addition to being subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/or the Federal and State Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Acts, said purchaser’s right of foreclosure may be affected by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act(FIRREA),12 U.S.C. ss 1811 et.seq., with regard to real property under Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation(FDIC) receivership.

The County Treasurer reserves the right, without further notice and at any time, to withdraw from sale any of the parcels of land or premises herein listed.

The Nassau County Treasurer reserves the right to intervene in any bankruptcy case/litigation where the property affected by the tax liens sold by the Treasurer is part of the bankruptcy estate. However, it is the sole responsibility of all tax lien purchasers to protect their legal interests in any bankruptcy case affecting their purchased tax lien, including but not limited to the filing of a proof of claim on their behalf, covering their investment in said tax lien. The Nassau County Treasurer and Nassau County and its agencies, assumes no responsibility for any legal representation of any tax lien purchaser in any legal proceeding including but not limited to a bankruptcy case where the purchased tax lien is at risk.

The rate of interest and penalty at which any person purchases the tax lien shall be established by his bid.

Each purchaser, immediately

after the sale thereof, shall pay to the County Treasurer ten per cent of the amount for which the tax liens have been sold and the remaining ninety per cent within thirty days after such sale. If the purchaser at the tax sale shall fail to pay the remaining ninety per cent within ten days after he has been notified by the County Treasurer that the certificates of sale are ready for delivery, then all amounts deposited with the County Treasurer including but not limited to the ten per cent theretofore paid by him shall, without further notice or demand, be irrevocably forfeited by the purchaser and shall be retained by the County Treasurer as liquidated damages and the agreement to purchase shall be of no further effect. Time is of the essence in this sale. This sale is held pursuant to the Nassau County Administrative Code and interested parties are referred to such Code for additional information as to terms of the sale, rights of purchasers, maximum rates of interest and other legal incidents of the sale.

Furthermore, as to the bidding, 1. The bidder(s) agree that they will not work with any other bidder(s) to increase, maintain or stabilize interest rates or collaborate with any other bidder(s) to gain an unfair competitive advantage in the random number generator in the event of a tie bid(s) on a tax certificate. Bidder(s) further agree not to employ any bidding strategy designed to create an unfair competitive advantage in the tiebreaking process in the upcoming tax sale nor work with any other bidder(s) to engage in any bidding strategy that will result in a rotational award of tax certificates.

2. The tax certificate(s) the Bidder will bid upon, and the interest rate(s) bid, will be arrived at independently and without direct or indirect consultation, communication or agreement with any other bidder and that the tax certificate(s) the Bidder will bid upon, and the interest rate(s) to be bid, have not been disclosed, directly or indirectly, to any other bidder, and will not be disclosed, directly or indirectly, to any other bidder prior to the close of bidding. No attempt has been made or will be made to, directly or indirectly, induce any other bidder to refrain from bidding on any tax certificate, to submit complementary bids, or to submit bids at specific interest rates.

3. The bids to be placed by the Bidder will be made in good faith and not pursuant to any direct or indirect, agreement or

A vibrating floor is a concern

Q. We are redoing our largest bathroom, and our interior designer and contractor are planning to put 12-inch-square tiles on the walls and the ceiling across the room. It should be nice, but we’re wondering if there’s something that needs to be done that we should know about, since we wonder if the tile can’t come down. The floor above is bedrooms and bathrooms, and we notice a little shaking in the floor when people are walking around. Should we be concerned?

A. Yes. As with any construction, you should always be concerned, or at least educated enough to be confident, about what others are doing to your home. Never take for granted that the people you hire just know it all.

Nobody knows it all, and with the internet, it’s possible to see examples to answer your question.

The funny thing is that I onte eeper went to the internet to see if anything has changed with tile adhesives and best materials before answering your question.

What I found were a number of different how-to videos, and nearly every one of them left out imporDenise Azzato tant information. People only tell you what they Associate Broker know.

OPINIONS

s there anyone on stage — and can I see hands? — who is unwilling tonight to pledge your support to the eventual nominee of the Republican Party, and pledge to not run an independent campaign against that person?”

That was a question that Bret Baier, of Fox News, asked 10 presidentially hopeful Republicans at a debate in August 2015. On the stage, only one person raised his hand — Donald Trump.

The rest is history.

Trump won the 2016 primary, and we didn’t have to MICHAEL endure an election which Trump MALASZCZYK in ran as a third-party candidate after losing. But we could be approaching that scenario soon.

I imagine that if televised debates existed in 1912, then former President Theodore Roosevelt would have had a similar response to that question. Roosevelt was running against his successor, William Howard Taft — whom he had handpicked, but with whose results as president Roosevelt was disappointed.

What did Teddy Roosevelt and Donald Trump have in common? Ego. It’s hard for anyone to get a word in edgewise with Trump, and historical accounts suggest a

W

similar phenomenon with Roosevelt.

They also had something in common that’s even more important for an election: a dedicated following that was loyal to them over any party. Both have been described as presidents who had “cults of personality.” Trump’s is apparent every day. I have yet to see a truck drive by with 20 bumper stickers and two flags praising President Biden. Roosevelt’s still manifests to this day in some ways. When talking politics, you can say “Teddy” and everyone knows who you’re talking about.

Of course, Roosevelt and Trump are complete opposites on the political spectrum. Teddy was seen as a progressive leader for his time, while Trump is considered right wing. But as former presidents with ambitions of returning to the White House, the similarities between Roosevelt, in 1912, and Trump, in 2023, can’t be ignored.

Trump’s path to next year’s nomination is questionable — many Republicans have made it clear that they want nothing more to do with him. Ever since the candidates he backed performed poorly in November’s midterms, Trump’s lead over Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in polls has shrunk. Even more concerning for Trump is that these are multi-candidate

W

polls in which he holds a plurality. If other candidates drop out and throw their weight behind DeSantis, Trump is in trouble.

But given his apparent inability to concede fair elections, it’s difficult to imagine Trump bowing out of the race and endorsing DeSantis against Biden. A more feasible scenario is Trump running as a thirdparty candidate.

That would be great news for Biden.

In 1912, Taft won the Republican nomination over Roosevelt, but refusing to concede, Roosevelt ran under the banner of the Bull Moose Party.

The result? The quiet, reserved Democratic nominee, Woodrow Wilson, swept the election. Despite winning only 41 percent of the popular vote, Wilson received 435 electoral votes and carried 40 states. Roosevelt finished second, with 88 electoral votes. Taft won only eight.

Taft’s and Roosevelt’s votes combined would have crushed Wilson. But the Republicans couldn’t unite, and the Democrat pulled off a landslide.

The parallels with 2024 aren’t all the same. There was a Republican incumbent in 1912; next year it will be a Democrat.

And views on the issues were different then than they are now. Economically,

ill Donald Trump repeat Teddy Roosevelt’s third-party misadventure?

Wilson would be to the left of Bernie Sanders, but socially, he’d be to the right of Marjorie Taylor Greene.

But the parallels are too significant to ignore — most notably, the Roosevelt and Trump diehard voters. And Taft was a respected leader who had once been seen as the heir to Roosevelt’s legacy. DeSantis is a well-known governor who is seen by many as a successor to Trump as the leader of his movement. Wilson may have been lacking in adoring fans, but he had the votes to win — like Biden may.

Republicans in 1912 couldn’t rally around the winner of their primary because one candidate with an ego refused to lose. And if the vote for speaker of the House 111 years later showed us anything, it’s that the divisions in today’s Republican Party over Donald Trump consist of a lot more than personal disagreements. In a three-way, Biden-DeSantis-Trump scenario, only Biden, and a unified Democratic Party, stand to gain.

Republicans are not one party right now. No promises have been made on their end to ensure that Biden won’t coast to victory. Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Republicans had better get it together, and fast, or they’ll be “Woodrow Wilsoned” by Biden in 2024.

A.I. is sucking the life out of us

ho am I? Ask Siri. I don’t know where she ends and I begin.

When my iPhone alarm went off at 6:30 this morning, it was to remind me I needed to hustle to my dentist appointment at 8 a.m. Getting dragged out of a deep sleep was especially painful because my wake-up music is “My Shot,” from “Hamilton.”

Lin Manuel Miranda’s repetitive assertion to thumping music is singularly irritating. But I clicked the wrong music alarm button three years ago, and inertia has kept it RANDI in place. So I shut KREISS off the phone and moved into my day.

A half-hour later, a “reminder” popped on my phone to take my thyroid meds and my vitamins. It was only 7 a.m., and I’d already been told what to do twice by my techno masters.

Slowly but inexorably, we are relinquishing free will and allowing technology to determine our decisions and our actions, our exercise habits, our purchas-

es and our tastes. I hear you saying, “But we were the ones who decided to buy the phone or the Fitbit or the Alexa,” and that is true. But I believe we humans have been naïve, vulnerable and unprepared for the seductive intrusion of technology into every moment of our waking hours.

Take me. The alarm was just the beginning. After I obediently took my meds, I saw a reminder pop up to take the chicken out of the freezer for dinner. I also had several “sticky notes” on my phone to call the dog groomer, prepare for a book group, set up a service call for the car and try calling JetBlue one more time to follow up on a refund. In pre-tech days, I would have these reminders on a piece of paper (remember when Post-its were so cool?), but responding to a pop-up feels like it’s in control, not me. Old-school notes on paper are just quieter.

In the time I’ve been writing this, I got a notification from Open Table to confirm a reservation. It told me that I must press 1 to confirm. I obeyed. Then, from an entirely different source, a shocking head-

M

line popped up, which told me that to read more about a titillating news story, I needed to click the message.

Because I almost bought a sweater from Bloomingdale’s a year ago, the store keeps telling me I “forgot” an item in my cart. It’s a technological nudge that distracts me in the moment and makes me think about the sweater, thus hijacking my attention.

This happens all day.

I don’t wear a smartwatch or tracking device because I don’t want another boss in my life. Nevertheless, my iPhone has started telling me how many steps I take. I don’t care. I don’t want to know, and I don’t want to get locked into obsessively quantifying my exercise.

At some point in my day, I will get a message from one or another of my apps, advising me that I need to change my password because somewhere in the Ethernet there has been a “breach.” It suggests that I add three security questions and a “rescue” email.

Then up pops a text advising me which books to purchase next, based on my Kin-

y phone has started telling me how many steps I take. I don’t care.

dle purchases, I suppose.

I downloaded the app Calm some time ago to learn meditation techniques for a more relaxing sleep experience. Now the word is out, and other apps are messaging me, offering bedtime stories read by boring narrators guaranteed to induce a good snooze. Every action on the phone or computer opens a door to thousands of other intrusions.

If I buy a pair of jeans online, I am hounded by competing clothing companies that want my business. Press here, click here, send us your email for a 10 percent discount. Send us your phone number for a freebie.

I was with a friend for a planned interlude of just sitting around and reading our books in my house. We would have companionable silence, sip our coffee and be at peace. Except that she has a thingie on her smartwatch that buzzes and tells her to get up and walk every 20 minutes.

And she does. It’s probably good for her circulation, but it’s definitely bad for her sense of free will.

Slowly, we are giving ourselves over to technology and giving up personhood, frogs in water slowly coming to a boil.

Donating blood benefits others — and you

J

anuary is National Blood Donor Month, first established a half-century ago. And it’s a good thing that declaration stuck, because blood is often in short supply, as it is today, even in our post-pandemic world.

And January is the worst month when it comes to blood shortages. That’s probably because people are busy in November and December, preparing for, and then enjoying, the holidays, with little time to donate blood. Then, what follows those family gatherings and parties with friends are often colds and the flu — and Covid-19 — all of which keep people home, and far away from making muchneeded blood donations.

There was an uptick in Covid infections at this time last year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It’s too early to tell how this month will shake out, but because the current strain — kraken — is highly contagious, the CDC predicts that as people attend gatherings inside during the winter months, more people will get sick.

Recent months have also seen outbreaks of respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV. Although it’s more serious among infants and older adults, anyone can get RSV, and doctors are finding that people

LETTERS If not Albany, who will deliver affordable housing?

To the Editor: Re last week’s editorial, “We don’t need Albany’s concrete fist in Nassau”: Well, perhaps we do. We are told, “It’s not that our local government officials don’t want affordable housing.” Yet is it not those very entities that established and maintain the conditions that have driven 300,000 people from New York in a single year, and have proposed nothing to slow the continuing daily average of 820 departures?

The thousands willing to move into Nassau would benefit from the application of some goad, prod, or spur of any kind to overcome Nassau County’s inertia in dealing with our problem of too little middle/working class housing.

To the Editor: Dear 3rd House District of New York: CNN reports, “Two New Jersey veterans say

of all ages do.

Why is donating blood so important?

Because every two seconds, someone in the United States needs blood or platelets, according to the American Red Cross.

And roughly 29,000 units of red blood cells, 5,000 units of platelets and 6,500 units of plasma are needed every day.

Because blood and platelets cannot be manufactured, donors are needed. And often. Add to this the fact that red blood cells expire after 42 days, and platelets must be used within a week.

But don’t get lost in the numbers.

Donating even once produces a pint of blood, which the Red Cross counts as three units. That can help save three lives — or one life, of someone who is seriously injured. Car accident victims can require as much as 100 units of blood, and those fighting cancer and blood diseases need even more.

What peopless may not realize is that donating blood can benefit donors beyond just feeling good that they’ve made a difference. It offers a mini-physical, because part of the process includes the taking of vital signs, which might uncover conditions like high blood pressure or even a heart arrhythmia.

Doctors say that donating blood regu-

larly reduces cardiovascular risk factors and is linked to lower blood pressure and minimizing the chance of a heart attack.

How? If the donor’s hemoglobin is too high while blood is being drawn, doing so will help reduce the “viscosity” of the blood, which causes blood clots, heart attacks and strokes.

There aren’t many requirements to join the fight to save lives, other than being healthy. According to the New York Blood Center, candidates must be at least 16 years old and not have donated blood within the past 56 days. Those younger than 18 must have a signed permission slip from a parent or guardian.

People older than 75 can donate, too, with a letter confirming sound health from a doctor.

And those who have had Covid can donate if they have been symptom-free, and have not tested positive, for two weeks.

Find out how you can donate today by contacting the New York Blood Center, at NYBC.org. You can also schedule a donation at (800) 933-2566.

January is when we celebrate those who donate blood and platelets. But giving the gift of life is something all of us can do all year long.

OPINIONS

W

hen I was growing up, it was hard not to notice the numbers tattooed on her wrist.

Children are often very observant, and I was curious about what they meant.

My grandmother Judith Mandel grew up in a small town called Hatvan, a few miles outside Budapest, Hungary. She was an ordinary girl, but she learned quickly that her heritage made her different when her classmates began to taunt her for being Jewish.

Following German forces’ annexDANIEL ation of Austria in 1938, they set their OFFNER sights on Hungary, and they invaded in March 1944. A few weeks later, my great-grandmother Ilona Kalman and my grandmother were forced into a ghetto at a sugar factory.

Judith was 16 when she and her mother were deported to the Auschwitz concentration camp, in occupied Poland, that June. When they arrived, Judith was separated from her mother and forced to work in the camp, while my great-grandmother was put to death in the gas chamber.

My grandmother would survive, but

not before being put to work at the Krakow-Plaszow, Seeshaupt and Dachau camps. When she was liberated by American troops from Dachau in May 1945, she weighed 45 pounds.

After the war, she married Ernest Mandel, and in 1948 they emigrated to the United States. They settled in the Bronx and raised three daughters.

Having witnessed the atrocities of the Holocaust, my grandmother had a difficult time adjusting to her new life. For many years she was afraid to plug things into electrical sockets because of her experience with electrified fences, and would overfeed her first-born daughter, my mother, so she wouldn’t starve. She struggled to learn English.

Her story had a profound impact on me. When I was a child, she often told me about her experiences. She took me to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington. I learned that being Jewish was part of my identity, and that while we lived in a country that was founded on the principal of freedom from religious persecution, this wasn’t the case in other parts of the world.

That’s why it is so important to remember the Holocaust, as we will this Friday,

O

n Friday the world will reflect on the horror, and I’ll honor my grandmother.

LETTERS now-Congressman George Santos promised to raise funds for lifesaving surgery for one of their dogs in 2016, then became elusive and took off with the money.” This is what you elected to Congress?

Really? The guy steals money from a homeless veteran’s dog, which has a tumor?

I think this, above all else, tells us about the values of the wealthy.

No humanity. No compassion. No concern for anything beyond their own income and comfort.

I would strongly recommend that you voters in the 3rd District get yourselves a copy of “A Tale of Two Cities” and read it cover to cover. And I would strongly recommend you recall this clown. He has no business being in D.C. Or anywhere else, for that matter.

PATRICK NORTHWAY Traverse City, Michigan

Heat pumps?

No, thanks.

To the Editor: Re “Long Island’s energ y

which is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. It is important never to forget the 6 million lives lost simply because of their religious, ethnic, gender or genetic differences, because history has a wicked way of repeating itself.

Over the past year alone, there has been so much hateful rhetoric on Long Island. The pamphlets of antisemitic literature being circulated across our communities, and the reports of those harmed for their beliefs, are enough to make many of us sick.

While I’m thankful that I live in a nation where, for the most part, we embrace one another’s differences, it is important to remember, and understand, why the Holocaust happened, in order to prevent anything like it from ever happening again. That is why it is so important to teach children about it — so we, and they, never forget what took place. Books like “Number the Stars,” by Lois Lowry, and “Daniel’s Story,” by Carol Matas, shouldn’t be deemed too “controversial,” because their subject matter is the human condition.

Banning literature — as the Nazis did generations ago — will only open a path to more of the kind of prejudice that can poison our society.

This has already happened in one

Texas school district, where, in 2021, teachers were advised to include reading that offered “opposing” views on controversial topics. What makes this so despicable isn’t just the fact that when it comes to the Holocaust, there are no reasonable opposing views, because any literature that denies that it happened is itself hate speech — but also that people have become so sensitive that they believe there has to be an alternative to accounts of violence and death to educate others about real events in history.

That is why it is so important to teach children about the Holocaust. We must never forget the lessons the world learned. Yes, the Holocaust showed us the worst of humanity, but banning its honest examination in the classroom will only perpetuate the type of ignorance that allowed such horror to happen in the first place.

We must continue to encourage this chapter of history to be a part of our children’s education. They deserve to know the unfiltered truth, so they will never be taken in by the false rhetoric that has been perpetuated by Holocaust deniers.

My grandmother’s struggle, and that of so many others who came here seeking refuge from persecution, cannot have been for nothing.

future: vision vs. mirage” (Jan. 12-18): I have to vehemently disagree with the authors’ statement that “heat pumps and Long Island are a match made in heaven.” I purchased heating pumps at the recommendation of Green Team Long Island, and took part in the state loan program. I seriously regret my decision, because the heating pumps don’t work as promised.

Basically, they blow cool air throughout my living room, creating a draft that I never had before.

They are so ineffective that I dress in layers and need a blanket to cover my legs when I sit at my dining room table. I have to look for a corner of the living room where these ridiculous pumps aren’t blowing. If I don’t want them to blow cool air, then I have to turn them down so low that it’s like having no heat at all.

Combating climate change should be our number one priority, but the products that are being promoted and sold need to work before they are put on the market.
