‘Greetings from Baldwin’ mural is done By KARINA KoVAC kkovac@liherald.com

Andaluz The Artist

THE MURAl pARTIAllY completed and Andaluz The Artist.

“Greetings from Baldwin,” a 10-by-18-foot postcard mural, has been completed on the brick wall of the Deli Boy, on Atlantic Avenue, by viral street artist Efren Andaluz III, known professionally as Andaluz The Artist. Initially a concept by a 20-year Baldwinite, Steven Velazquez, who sought funding from the Chamber of Commerce last year, the mural features Baldwin legends including the late Yankees announcer Bob Sheppard and photogra-

pher Moneta Sleet Jr., and scenes such as the annual paper boat race, and is expected to add buzz to Baldwin and attract visitors who will spend money at local shops. Velazquez, who wanted to create the mural for years, said at a chamber meeting on May 11 that its completion was only the beginning of efforts to show it off, and that he planned to print postcards and a calendar with all the sponsors of the project. “People are going to see this image around the world,” Velazquez said, expressing the Continued on page 14

Baldwin woman finds lost father — at his suggestion By KARINA KoVAC kkovac@liherald.com

Growing up, Janice Segure, who was born to a teenage mother and raised by her grandparents, never knew her real father, but finding him was always in the back of her mind. Last month, Segure, of Baldwin, who is now 57, was finally reunited with her missing father — after meeting him unknowingly and taking him up on his suggestion of doing a 23andMe DNA test. In April, Janice’s husband, Steven, urged her to join ancestry.com, the genealogy website on which he was enjoying mapping his family. Janice joined as

well, to work on as much of her family tree as she knew. On the site, a woman reached out to her, saying she looked a lot like the woman’s Aunt Fay, and sent a picture. Segure recalled thinking, “Is that Photoshop? Is someone playing a trick on me?” “But then,” she added, “I noticed she had similar DNA matching.” Thinking they might be related, the two women began corresponding, and agreed to figure out how to find Segure’s father. They discovered that they were first cousins, and Segure was encouraged to return to her hometown of Pensacola, Florida, where she grew up before mov-

ing to Baldwin at age 10, to meet some other members of her extended family and ask around about her dad. She was nervous at first, but Steven pushed her to take the trip and see what might happen. While she was planning the trip, her cousin’s Aunt Fay died, and Segure was invited to the funeral. Not wanting it to be, she said, “like a movie where people ask, ‘Who is that?’” she almost didn’t go, but was ultimately glad she did. There she met more relatives, “and that’s where the connection really happened,” she said. While mingling with her newly discovered family mem-

bers, she came across a man named Frank Rogers, who was curious about her ties to the family and offered help. He said that to be sure, she should do the saliva-based biological testing called 23andMe, where he was registered and which would offer a more concrete answer. Back in Baldwin, she took the test, sending her DNA out and

getting an email response a few days later, telling her that there was a 49.5 percent chance that Rogers was her father, and that she had two sisters. “And then all of these thoughts are going through my head,” Segure recalled. She had met Rogers’s two daughters, as well, in Florida. “I just met this man, have a Continued on page 5

Health’s Nurses Week Celebration. Megan Stewart, associate volunteer experience program manager, worked with Pat Banhazl, school-to-career coordinator for Baldwin High School, and the directors of bands, Scott Dunn and Deanna Nikirk, to coordinate more than forty students from the Pep Band to welcome the nurses to work through the gift of song. Lined up at the inside entrance, the student musicians surprised the nurses as they walked into their shift with numerous favorite, upbeat jams. More than fifteen tunes were played, spanning multiple decades, from “YMCA” by the Village People, “Any Way You Want It” by Journey, “Play That Funky Music” by Wild Cherry, to “I Like to Move It” by Real 2 Real, “Push It” by Salt n’ Pepa and “Party Rock Anthem” by LMFAO. Hospital leadership, Irene Macyk, North Shore University Hospital Chief Nursing Officer; Tara Laumenede, Deputy Chief Nursing Officer; and Josephine Melchione, senior director of patient care, were also in attendance to show their appreciation for the hard-working staff and to watch the live entertainment. “The band played great, and we had fun,” said Scott Dunn, Director of Bands. “The nurses seemed to really appreciate it, and everybody we worked with at North Shore University Hospital was extremely professional and accommodating. Overall, it was truly a wonderful experience for all involved and a special evening for our students and Northwell nurses.” “We were thrilled to be a part of North Shore University Hospital’s Nurses Week Celebration, and to show our gratitude for first responders through music,” added Ms. Nikirk, band director for Baldwin High School. “The collective energy of the hospital staff and administration was contagiously uplifting, and our students had a wonderful time collaborating with them for such a meaningful event.” The Baldwin High School Pep Band consists of student musicians in grades 9 through 12 who are also part of either the Wind Symphony, Symphony Band, or both.

11 OF The 13 girls invited to present original behavioral research at the Association for Psychological Science Convention in Chicago May 26-28.

Scholars headed to APS science convention By KARINA KOVAC kkovac@liherald.com

At Sacred Heart Academy in Hempstead two Baldwin high schoolers, Tori Famularo and Victoria Vazquez are researching behavioral science through socially conscious projects that will be on display at the Association for Psychological Science (APS) Convention in Chicago, Illinois on May 26 to 28. Famularo’s study was titled, “The Kids Are *Not* Alright: Assessing Student Stress in Single-Sex College Preparatory Schools in New York & Puerto Rico” and Vazquez, “#Retweet”: Is There a Link between Social Media Use and Social Anxiety?” respectfully. Famularo is expected to attend Dartmouth College in the fall and Vazquez the University of Scranton. Famularo chose her topic while thinking about other student experiences across the world that could’ve happened to her if she wasn’t born in the geographical location she was. Being of Puerto Rican decent but raised in Baldwin, this was especially special to her saying, “I

actually partnered with our sister school Maria Reina in Puerto Rico, which was really nice, because I’m Puerto Rican, so I was able to really embrace my culture.” After surveying the results were in and it was found that in both schools there was a high prevalence of physical and psycholo gical stress and related unhealthy behaviors associated with that stress, such as 67.4 percent reporting chronic sleep deprivation. Even more interesting, Famularo discovered there to be no correlation between having physical stress symptoms and calculated grade point average. Vazquez, Famularo’s classmate and fellow researcher picked an equally important topic of research, asking if social media addition and use is linked to social anxiety. Sending out a 3-part survey to 78 participants Vazquez found out the unexpected, seeing no significant correlation between social anxiety and social media use. The topic, however, is timely as increases in suicide rates, especially among young girls can be seen across the

Emergency room visits for suspected suicide attempts among girls between the ages of 12 and 17 increased by 26 percent during the summer 2020 and by 50 percent during winter 2021, compared with the same periods in 2019, researchers from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found. Principal of Sacred Heart Academy Jean Amore stopped into the classroom during presentations and was amazed by the work the teenagers are producing, “They work well doing research and they work very well under the metric of Dr. Sullivan who coached them, I like the topics they chose, and they also have a moral compass to them too which is nice because their research reflects their personal and their professional interests, but also about what they’re concerned about today as witnesses to the world.” The APS started in 1988 with 400 dedi-

cated psychological scientists and a mission to restore the public image of psychology as a science. Today, APS has an international membership and continues to combine traditional scientific values of rigor and transparency with innovative methods and practices in the conduct and application of research. The APS Convention hosts more than 4,200 psychological scientists and students annually, and more than 2,500 at its biennial International Convention of Psychological Science. And, throughout the year, APS shares it’s science in six of the most influential journals in the field. APS is also committed to the training and support of a new generation of psychological scientists and the engagement of the scientific community with cutting-edge tools and techniques.

HS athletics host “Signing Day” for senior Bruins By KARINA KOVAC kkovac@liherald.com

The Baldwin Union Free School District (UFSD) Athletics Department recently hosted “Signing Day” for the senior student-athletes who have committed to playing for a college-level sports team. Various sports were represented among the 13 seniors who have chosen to continue their path in athletics. The event featured the Baldwin High School athletes signing their “national letter of intent” alongside family members, coaches, principal Dr. Neil Testa and superintendent Dr. Shari L. Camhi. The Director of Physical Education, Health Education, Health Services and Athletics for Baldwin UFSD, Eduardo Ramirez, helped organize and host the occasion. “We are extremely proud of this year’s senior student-athletes and what they have accomplished,” said Ramirez. “They are role models and an example of what can happen with

hard work, commitment, sacrifice and balancing athletics and academics. This is the end of one chapter and the start of another. College signing is not the goal, it is a checkpoint that lets you know you are doing things the right way.” He continued, “We encourage them to continue this path as they head off to college. Remember they are not leaving Baldwin; they take Baldwin and everything they have learned here with them. We are confident they will succeed at whatever they pursue in life. We wish them nothing but the best and we thank them for allowing us to witness and be of their greatness. “ The afternoon celebration culminated with refreshments and picture opportunities for families, friends, and staff. For the list of student names and the colleges they’ve “signed” to please check out the Baldwin UFSD school district wespage.

Getting ready for the return of the Nunley golf ball By KARINA KOVAC kkovac@liherald.com

The famed Nunley’s Amusement Park golf ball, which sat high upon the ticket booth near the miniature golf course during the park’s heyday and was lost to obscurity for decades, has completed its trial run last weekend to be placed on top a ten-foot pole outside the Baldwin Historical Society Museum. With the assistance of the Baldwin Fire Department lending a protective eye and equipment to president of the historical society Gary Farkash, he was able to climb high in the fire department’s cherry picker and practice putting the approximate 8 feet wide and 7 feet tall fiberglass ball in place. This trial run comes after the ball’s restoration done by Farkash in his garage after its re-discovery and purchase from a New Jersey antique shop two years ago. The permanent unveiling and setting event are currently slated to be held late in June. Follow the Baldwin Historical Society on their Facebook page or stop in for more information. The museum is open every Sunday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. and is located on 1980 grand avenue.

We pause this day to revere all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom

She put together the pieces of her family photo with him,” she said. “I was talking to my dad and met both my sisters. I was talking to my sister and didn’t realize it.” Never thinking something so spectacular could happen to her, it was surreal for her to consider that her father had been the one to suggest 23andMe. “It’s trippy, in a sense, where you only hear about this stuff in a story or on TV,” Segure said. “And wow, this is happening to me right now. It’s just weird, and I’m still trying to get ahold of everything. I’m still trying to believe it.” She found out that Rogers was the first black paramedic in Pensacola, and appeared in the newspaper frequently for saving lives. “He’s a real standup guy, [a] very respected person in the community,” Segure said. “That whole side of the family said he’s the best choice of all of them.” The first time she spoke to Rogers after her discovery, he called while she was in the supermarket. Wanting a more proper place to talk, Segure didn’t answer, but fate intervened: The call picked up on its own, and she suddenly heard his voice. She cannot explain how it happened. “The call picks up and I’m like, I do not activate the call, what the heck,” she said. “So I said, ‘OK, I’m supposed to take this call.’” Arranging to be in Florida this past Sunday, Segure and her father reunited properly, and enjoyed time together, catching up.

Bethpage Air Show flies back into the sky Annual event — featuring the U.S. Navy Blue Angels — takes off Saturday, May 28 By BRENDAN CARPENTER bcarpenter@liherald.com

Alexa Wahl was just 7 when her family began attending the Bethpage Air Show. Standing on Jones Beach and staring at the sky, she would watch the planes soar past quickly and gracefully. It was from that very moment Wahl realized she wanted to be a pilot. Now 23, the Deer Park resident spent time in high school “Googling every possible profession” because she felt becoming a pilot wasn’t possible for her. Nothing excited her quite like flying. So why not? Wahl decided to go for it. With no experience and just a dream, Wahl enrolled in the Aviation Center at Farmingdale State College. After four years of learning to fly, she graduated from the program last December. Wahl’s now an instructor at the center — currently the only woman in such a role — mentoring future pilots. Yet, it was Michael Canders who helped her realize her dream. A military pilot for the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy for more than four decades, Canders is an associate professor and the college’s aviation center director. It was ultimately up to him who the five aviation center pilots would fly in this year’s Bethpage Air Show. One of his top choices? Wahl, of course. “I was so surprised to be asked,” Wahl said. “I worked so hard, and it definitely paid off. But it still feels too good to be true.” Wahl and the other pilots from the center will open the show on Saturday, May

Want to go? The 2022 Bethpage Air Show is set for Saturday, May 28 and Sunday, May 29 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Jones Beach is located off Meadowbrook Parkway South. Admission is free, but there is a $10 parking fee charged on-site, but is waived for those with a New York State Parks Empire Pass. This year’s show is headlined by the U.S. Navy Blue Angels, For more information, visit BethPageAirShow.com. Courtesy Alexa Wahl

AlExA WAhl, A recent graduate of the Aviation Center at Farmingdale State College, will fulfill her childhood dream of flying in the Bethpage Air Show. 28 at 10 a.m., as the first group. Wahl will pilot the third plane in the line, flying a PA-28-161, otherwise known as a Piper Warrior 3. It is the same plane she trained with at points in the program, and is classified as “low-wing,” meaning it’s more stable and easier to control, making it better for new pilots to operate. Wahl will join the 44 other pilots from the Aviation Center at Farmingdale State College who have flown in the air show. Her mentor, Canders, will narrate the flights at the show and talk about the program for all the viewers to hear.

For some pilots, however, this air show will not be their first rodeo in the sky. Jessy Panzer is a true air show veteran. The Colorado Springs-based pilot was introduced to planes by her father, who worked at Duncan Aviation, a privately owned business jet service provider. He died in an accident when Panzer was just 10. When she is not doing air shows, Panzer works as a corporate private jet pilot. She began flying in air shows back in 2004, and the 43-year-old has since made her way to about 15 shows a year, except

for the coronavirus-ravaged 2020 dates. Panzer has flown solo as well as in duos and trios depending on the show. This will be her second time flying at Bethpage, but her first time doing it solo. “I’ll be back in my single-seat pink airplane,” she said. Panzer said she loves doing shows because “to see everyone’s faces after I perform, especially the little girls, makes it all great.” Panzer wants those girls to leave the show saying, “If she can do it, I can do it, too.” “I am very excited to be invited back to Bethpage,” Panzer added. “All performers work so hard to practice and maintain the planes so we can wow everyone in 10 minutes. A great show is going to be put on.”

Ongoing track work forces more LIRR changes

cOnTinuing cOnSTRucTiOn iS great news for some peak commuters, but bad news for everyone else, as Long Island Rail Road restores some service while cutting others. Summertime trains, however, return Memorial Day weekend on the Long Beach, Montauk and Ronkonkoma branches.

BALDWIN HERALD — May 26, 2022

include both the $2.6 billion Main Line Expansion Project and the $11 billion East Side Access project looking to provide new service to Grand Central Terminal. The Main Line expansion is adding a third track between Floral Park and Hicksville. MTA also plans to cut the 11:21 a.m., train between Farmingdale and Penn Station, as well as the 10:25 p.m., train between Penn Station and Huntington. Commuters are recommended to take the 10:37 p.m., train to Ronkonkoma, and transfer at Hicksville for the Port Jefferson-bound train. The 11:14 p.m., train between Penn Station and Ronkonkoma will originate in Hicksville at 12:31 a.m. Commuters are advised to take the 11:39 p.m., train from Penn Station toward Huntington to connect with this train. The 11:22 p.m., train between Huntington and Penn Station will end at Hicksville, where commuters can jump to the 11:48 p.m., train to New York City with added stops. But it’s not all cuts. MTA has added a weekday train departing Atlantic Terminal beginning at 8:22 a.m., making all stops to Jamaica. For peak trains, the 6:07 p.m., route between Atlantic Terminal and Babylon has been restored. Also, a new train departs Jamaica at 7:37 a.m., operating express to Atlantic Terminal, with connecting transfers from Hempstead, Baby-

STAFF REPORT It’s been many long months of track work through the heart of the Long Island Rail Road. But all that construction is in the “homestretch.” Commuters will just have to endure a little more inconvenience in the meantime. During off-peak hours, at least. Weekend service between Penn Station and Huntington now operates hourly, according to new details from the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, with connecting service to and from Port Jefferson every two hours. Eastbound trains to Huntington depart up to 13 minutes later than what they did previously. Also getting a later start are midday weekday westbound trains on the Ronkonkoma line, by up to 25 minutes. Overnight eastbound trains will be as much as a half-hour late. Same is true for midday eastbound trains to Oyster Bay, although the 8:06 a.m., train from Jamaica to Oyster Bay will now depart a short time earlier at 7:53. “These service adjustments accommodate the final stages of work as we reach the homestretch of completing the LIRR’s most transformative projects,” said Catherine Rinaldi, the railroad’s interim president, in a release. “The schedule modifications optimize availability for crews to complete tasks while minimizing disruptions to scheduled service.” Those transfor mative endeavors

lon, Ronkonkoma and Oyster Bay Branch trains. The 6:09 p.m., train between Penn Station and Babylon will return to its normal schedule, stopping at Rockville Centre, Baldwin and Freeport only. The 7:12 a.m., train from Huntington to Penn Station will have an added Hicksville stop at 7:29 a.m. And the 6:21 p.m., weekday train between Penn Station and Ronkonkoma will now depart at 6:16 p.m. And one major piece of good news for those looking to get some sun: summeronly trains on the Long Beach, Montauk and Ronkonkoma branches return beginning Memorial Day weekend.

It’s a lot of new schedule to remember, which is why MTA officials recommend commuters depend on its TrainTime smartphone app, or by reviewing the Long Island Rail Road PDF timetables at MTA. info. The transit authority is making customer service agents available to answer questions each day using live chat through its app between 6 a.m., and 10 p.m. To get someone on the phone, dial 511, or (718) 217-5477, and simply say “representative” at the start of the prompt. Automated schedule information is available at that phone number, however, around the clock.

“I think we overachieved.” That was the sentiment of Baldwin boys’ lacrosse coach Tim Clancy after a strong finish to the regular season that resulted in a second straight playoff berth. The Bruins ended this spring with a 9-6 regular season record, one win better than 2021, and a 6-5 mark in Conference B. Baldwin’s playoff aspirations took a hit after a 15-8 loss to Mepham on May 6 dropped it to 6-6 and 3-5 in the division. The schedule concluded with three straight road games against Great Neck North, a 10-win Glen C ove t e a m a n d w i n l e s s Elmont and Clancy knew his team was at a crossroads. “Our intention this whole season was we’re making the playoffs and nothing shy,” he said. “We got to that point where we have to win out, so we basically have to treat each of these next games like playoff games.” Baldwin got by North 12-4 on May 11 behind three goals by sophomore Brady Mahler and six points from senior captain Zach Kirchner. Three days later, it found itself tied with Glen Cove at nine apiece and after three quarters before the Bruins squeaked out an 11-10 victory courtesy of Aaron Bell’s hat trick, including what proved to be the game-winning tally. Baldwin completed the sweep with a 17-3 victory over Elmont. The season, unfortunately, ended with a 15-2 loss to Carey in the first round of the playoffs last Friday, but Clancy said he couldn’t complain at all about his team’s

We had a lot of kids accomplish a lot of great things.” Despite an injury scare earlier in the season, Kirchner led the team in goals (31) and points (53) and was just as good on ground balls. He was

one of two Bruins named AllCounty honorable mention. “Zach had a great season,” Clancy said. “He just had a complete year. He dislocated his kneecap in one of the games earlier and we thought we were going to lose him. But he toughed it out for the rest of the year and didn’t miss a single game.” Mahler had 23 goals and headed a strong sophomore class that also includes middies Tyler McTaggart (19 goals), Aaron Bell (10) and Logan Kirchner (9), attackman Jake Davidson and

defenseman-long pole middie Borago Arlin. Another sophomore, Paul Clement, was called up from JV and scored in the playoff game. The defense corps also shined in senior captain Zavier Foster, who often covered the opposition’s best player, and Christian and Aaron Nieves. Elijah Bell, the team’s other honorable mention, showed “fearless” tenacity in net and had around 150 saves, including two from pointblank range in the fourth quarter that helped preserve the Glen Cove win.

Ingrid “Ingie” Schubert Mahler deceased at 80

A beloved mother, grandmother, and sister Ingrid “Ingie” Schubert Mahler was born December 17, 1941, and passed away on April 19, 2022. She is survived by her three children, Kristin Mahler, Erik Mahler and Kaia Waldvogel along with her 10 grandchildren, a niece and two nephews and her brother Carl Schubert. Mahler spent her childhood in Carle Place, New York where she enjoyed riding horses bareback and picking strawberries from the farms which usually led to getting in trouble for getting her new shoes dirty. She attended Hofstra University and graduated with a degree in education which she used for two and a half years motivating young minds to embrace learning and community service. After getting married, Mahler made a home in Baldwin, New York where she raised three children, Kristin, Erik and Kaia. Later she moved to Quogue and after her children left home, she briefly resided in Florida but eventually settled in Hendersonville, North Carolina.

For those who have known her, you are familiar with her quick wit and contagious laughter. You may have been lucky enough to experience her competitive nature in her two favorite sports, tennis and golf or maybe she beat you in a game of bridge. Mahler had an amazing command of the English language which included correcting you multiple times on the correct usage of good and well even if you weren’t her child and she even did the New York Times crossword puzzle in pen. She loved all things nature which included a passion for gardening. Her love of gardening led her to volunteer as one of Baldwin’s Gardening Angels, where she spent her free time beautifying the community. Mahler was involved with the Baldwin Public Library and at one time, served as president and then later vice president. She also served as president for the Women’s Advanced Club. A private family celebration of life will be held. Her family asks for those who would like to honor her memory to please plant a tree or help an animal to commemorate her; she would have loved that.

Concrete for a home by the water?

Q. We have always wanted to build a home from scratch, and want to plan a house that is modern, fireproof, hurricane-proof and checks all the boxes for a dream house. We have a property to build on, but realize the economy is working against us, since the cost of everything seems to be much higher than when we started our wish list. Someone we know suggested building with concrete block to save money, but the house will be near the bay, and we’re wondering whether it will survive a flood, especially since we know already that we have to have the living floor above the flood height. Ask The What do you recommend for building our home? Architect Concrete is what we’ve been seeing, but won’t that be expensive?

A. Concrete is a great choice for building in a flood zone, but not the best material system for saving money over alternate building systems and materials you could onte eeper choose from, especially for residential construction. The reason why concrete buildings are built, in general, is to meet much more stringent building laws to accommodate a larger number of people, protecting us from fire spread while being very strong and low in maintenance. The code (or written law) is in place to create safe buildings. Fire, wind and flood are very real and ominous threats. What you have typically seen in flood zone areas is first floor full foundations surrounding the garage and storage areas. Living spaces are required to be above the flood level. You have to be prepared for much more labor-intensive construction above the lowest level if you hope to build out of concrete. Concrete buildings require steel reinforcing rods — tons of them — set into configurations before the concrete is formed and poured. The concrete is generally formed from wood formwork constructed by carpenters, who must then strip the forms away from the concrete after it has set up and is curing. If this sounds expensive, consider that a wood structure, properly designed and covered in a flood-resistant membrane and cement board, can meet the same regulations for a lot less cost. This is only because one-, two- or three-story structures can still meet the requirements of current law without the excessive strength or flame resistance that larger buildings are required to have. Concrete block isn’t a better choice. It won’t resist movement like a monolithic, steel-reinforced concrete wall will. Steel wall studs covered with sheets of concrete board, finished with stucco, also stand up very well if anchored correctly, for a lot less cost. You can create the same modern look and avoid the cost of a full concrete structure if you use the wood or steel wall studs above the reinforcedconcrete lowest level. Instead of poured-concreteformed floors, consider wood floors that accommodate insulation better, resist fire and have a sprinkler system that will save the home and contents more economically as well. Good luck!

to todAy’s puzzle

opinions

y friend Mike is a gentle soul with a quick sense of humor. We met when we studied journalism at Long Island University’s Brooklyn Center and worked endlessly on the school newspaper, Seawanhaka. I still see Mike once in a while, when a few of the old Seawanhaka gang get together at a diner. Mike would joke as always on those afternoons over lunch, and regale us with stories about his latest trip to Italy, where he and his JiM wife have relaBERnsTEin tives. Our conversations also took place online. Mike has always been with us on the issues of the day — our disbelief and fear at the rise of the radical right and the demise of what was once the Republican Party, our dislike of the gun culture, our deep sympathy with the people in Ukraine, our disgust with Russian President Vladimir Putin. But after the back-to-back mass mur-

ders over the weekend of May 14-15, in Buffalo and Orange County, Calif., I received an unusual email from Mike. “If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em,” he began. He wrote that a cousin from Italy had been visiting, and went to a local gun range. He described the costs involved — $25 for a short “first time” course with an instructor, renting a gun for $25 per hour plus the cost of ammunition and the use of a target. He continued, apparently with some excitement, “They have all different kinds of pistols and some rifles.” His cousin had tried out a pistol, her friend had shot a rifle, and then they switched. She had urged Mike and his family visit the range. Then his note became alarming: “I’ve never fired a gun in my life,” he wrote, “but I think I may stop off at this place sometime this week and get my feet wet.” And then: “Maybe after learning how to shoot, I pick up a small but lethal handgun. I could get one legally, but it’s a huge hassle. I could always travel one weekend to a state with no gun laws and

‘

buy one there. I’m just getting spooked by knowing that so many wackos in New York may have a gun.” I quickly wrote to ask if he was serious. His response was heartbreaking. “I’m serious about going to the range for some fun shooting,” he wrote. “Just for the experience. I am semi-serious about the gun.” In the back of his mind, he concluded, “I see myself shooting some a-hole who approaches me on the street asking for money.” Maybe that shouldn’t have been a surprise. America has become the gun capital of the world. In 2021, Americans bought about 19.9 million firearms, the gun industry’s second-busiest year on record. Our country has also become the mass-shooting capital of the world. The shooting in Buffalo was the 198th such incident this year. And the year isn’t half over. Mike watched the coverage of Buffalo just like the rest of us. He reads the newspapers the same as we do. But he seems to have come to different conclusions. He may, he thinks, need a gun. The rest of us old college newspaper

could always travel one weekend to a state with no gun laws and get one there.’

guys don’t think we do. We all have different thoughts and different reasons for thinking the way we do. And that’s fine. But I can’t helping wondering what happened to the Mike I’ve known for so many years, the guy who wrote funny columns for the college newspaper and is still funny after all these years. What is it he is afraid of ? And why? Many others have the same feelings and fears, and I have the same questions for them. I have no desire to own a gun. Why do they? Why do they see the senseless killing of Black shoppers in Buffalo, worshippers at a synagogue in Pittsburgh or a mass shooting in New Orleans, and think the solution is to arm themselves? The National Rifle Association has always preached that “the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is with a good guy with a gun.” But the proliferation of guns has never seemed to me a solution to the proliferation of guns. Mike is a good guy who may well want a gun. The trouble is, how many other good guys are out there who feel same way? And why? Jim Bernstein is the editor of the Long Beach Herald.

When the coronavirus pandemic hits home

wo Sundays ago my husband tested positive for Covid-19. He was at home on the East Coast and I was visiting grandkids on the West Coast. It was the very last night of my trip; he called to say he had a cold, so we did the Covid home test together on FaceTime. He aced it, and not in a good way. He had Covid. I had been away for a week, but was leaving at 4:30 the next morning for home. He managed on his own for 16 hours while RAnDi I flew across the KREiss country and into ground zero for germs. I was super anxious all the way home, perseverating about vaccinated older people getting very sick. Dying. We have lost friends, and we have lived through all the dreadful accounts of ventilator hell. Since the beginning, we have been exceedingly careful with ourselves and others. How could this happen? Would it go well? Would I be next? After two years of hiding out and

hunkering inside and ordering in meals and missing family and friends, Covid still found us. After tracking the first available vaccines like bloodhounds and traveling two hours each way to get our jabs, Covid still found us. In our 54 years together, we’ve been through some stuff. Now my husband and I needed to get him through a global pandemic that has already killed 1 million Americans. I know how to be a good nurse, but there’s sometimes a mash-up among the head and the heart and the sense of humor. I can take blood pressure and use an oximeter and make chicken soup and basically devote my day to hydrating the patient. I also can worry myself sick with all the what-ifs. I can also laugh at the absurd. I developed my own prescription for loving care laced with a bit of dark humor. In the initial phase of my husband’s illness I was scared, so I was all in. No joking at all. As he improved, however, and when he started asking for seconds of dessert, and fluffed pillows, my inner Nurse Ratched

emerged. We set him up in our bedroom, and I moved into another room. Our rule was that, with a mask, he could come out for meals at a table in our den. I would put his food out and go back to the kitchen, which was my space. Initially he was grateful for every morsel of food and gesture of kindness. As the days moved along, he suggested I had overcooked his eggs and handed him the wrong salad dressing. You’re so right. This. Isn’t. About. Me. (I don’t really buy that.) But I’ve been doing all the cooking, cleaning, laundry, dog walks, dishwashing, obsessive, never-ending handwashing, and disinfectant spraying. Don’t get me wrong; he is a model patient. I am not a model nurse. Not as bad as the fabled Ratched, who did a job on Jack Nicholson in “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” but I’m no Walt Whitman, either. Yes! You didn’t know? He didn’t just write poetry; he was a skilled nurse. We are now five days in since my husband tested positive. The CDC says

n the initial phase of my husband’s illness I was scared, so there was no joking.

he can go out and play. According to new guidelines, I was never required to isolate if I felt OK. We are not following these guidelines. We are both isolating until he tests negative. I will then test, and we’ll move on from there. Have no doubt: This Covid thing is one nasty bug. My husband has just about every pre-existing condition you can have, and he is feeling every one of his 76 years. The take-home lesson is this: We might be very sick or dead without the vaccines. Thank heaven and whatever powers may be, thank our scientists and our medical community and all the friends and neighbors and fellow Americans who took vaccines and boosters. I have no doubt at all that my husband’s apparent mild course of illness is because he has some protection from the vaccines. We were also able to get him Paxlovid, the anti-viral drug from Pfizer, and that seems to help, too. Today I can say, so far, so good. I hope he continues to do well. I hope I don’t get sick. Now I must make him a tuna sandwich, not too much mayo, a little bit of onion. Lightly toasted bread. Copyright 2022 Randi Kreiss. Randi can be reached at randik3@aol.com.

t’s likely the eve of the destruction of Roe v. Wade — an act likely to be met with cheers or outrage, depending on which side of the landmark 1973 U.S. Supreme Court abortion case people land on. And what comes next could very well be up to your state legislator. How the court could change course so dramatically in less than 50 years is something scholars will debate for a long time. But it’s not exactly unprecedented. In fact, it’s not even uncommon. The court has overturned its own decisions more than 230 times since 1810, according to the Library of Congress. That makes such actions an almost annual event, on average. Many of those mind changes were for the better. Like the famous Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka ruling in 1954, which upended the “separate but equal” policy established by Justice Melville Fuller’s court with Plessy v. Ferguson in 1896. Miranda v. Arizona in 1966 created the “you have the right to remain silent” Miranda rights we see over and over on cop shows. But Miranda actually overturned two rulings from just a decade earlier, both involving criminal suspects who were denied access to lawyers during police interrogations. And there have been decisions that just made things worse. Like Citizens United v. FEC, which has helped shape the “soft

letters My body, my choice? Please! To the Editor: The argument about a woman’s right to control her body is confusing to me. It seems to apply only when certain parts of society want it to. They say confession is good for the soul, so perhaps that’s why Randi Kreiss felt the need to share with us that she had an abortion (“Threat to choice has women on the march,” May 12-18). The following week, a reader shared that she’d had two abortions (“Randi’s ‘raised voice for women,’” May 19-25). I’m happy that this reader was financially and emotionally ready to welcome children after her abortions. If all of our parents waited for that, I wonder how many of us would have been born. That’s not so much a judgment of these two ladies who shared their abortion stories, but more a commentary on our society. But where were these same coura-

money” political landscape we have today. In 2010, the court, let by Chief Justice John Roberts, ruled that giving money to political campaigns — no matter how much money — was an extension of free speech granted by the First Amendment. That ruling wiped out two previous Supreme Court decisions, including one brought by Sen. Mitch McConnell against the McCain-Feingold Act, which limited such campaign expenditures. Many of these legal “course corrections,” for lack of a better term, were met with controversy. And if the Supreme Court does indeed overturn Roe v. Wade in the coming weeks, its ruling will reverberate through a large number of elections and a wide range of legislation to come. Yet what’s before the court isn't a criminalization of abortion. Instead, it would likely return the country to what existed before Roe — individual states creating a mish-mash of laws ranging from full legalization of the procedure to its outright ban. New York has a complicated history with abortion. While many believe the state would remain pro-choice, it wasn’t always that way here. In fact, abortion has been legal in New York only since 1970 — legislation signed into law just three years before Roe of a procedure that had been outlawed, for the most part, since 1830. But abortion access will completely disappear in other states — the quickening

of a process that has been under way for the past couple of decades. The future of abortion in New York will almost assuredly lie with Albany. State lawmakers will be compelled to respond to the ruling, and could put in place laws codifying the original Roe ruling, dismantle legalization, or possibly finding some space in between. No matter which direction legislators lean, what is certain is they need to hear from you. For abortion? Against abortion? With conditions? No conditions? This is the time to speak up and be a part of the legislative process. We spend a lot of time reading — and hearing — about individual lawmakers’ positions. In the end, however, their job is to represent their constituents. That’s us. But they can’t represent us if they don’t know our positions on legislation before them, or the bills that could wind up on their desks thanks to the actions of the Supreme Court. Call your Assembly member or state senator. Write them letters. Send them emails. Visit their district offices. Don’t wait for someone else to speak for you, because if everyone waits, then no one is speaking. And with high court changing so dramatically in recent years, it's more important than ever to establish those relationships with lawmakers, because what happens next truly depends on you.

opinions

et’s be clear. The calculated illegal leak of a draft decision by the U.S. Supreme Court is akin to leaking the launch codes for America’s nuclear arsenal. It puts American democracy and institutions at grave risk. As challenging as it may be given the passions of both sides, we need to put aside whether we agree or disagree that the draft Roe v. Wade decision is a correct interpretation of the Constitution and appreciate the far larger issue: that the leak is a cyniRonaLd J. cal effort to corrupt the confidenRosenbeRg tial deliberative process of our judiciary. It not only improperly sought to create a national firestorm prior to the court’s issuing a final decision, but also to destroy the necessary confidentiality, internal trust and mutual respect needed among the justices and staff. Unlike the other two branches of government — Congress and the executive branch — which have elected office holders who are answerable to their constituents every two, four of six years — the

federal judicial branch has unelected judges and justices who are appointed for life. The reason our founders provided for this was to attempt to immunize them from the outside forces and partisan influences that are involved in getting reelected or re-appointed. The founders of this great republic enacted a Constitution that provided for an executive branch and a legislative branch, both of which are answerable to the citizens — and thus also subject to being lobbied and picketed by them. Judges, meanwhile, are obligated to decide matters impartially, without bias, prejudice or partisan influences, based solely on facts properly admitted into evidence in court and in accordance with applicable law. It is illegal for anyone to attempt to intimidate or influence judges outside court proceedings to try to get them to achieve your desired outcome. Picketing their homes or otherwise trying to intimidate judges or their families is a serious crime, and a threat to the premise of the judicial branch. Chief Justice John Roberts’s statement after the leak only hinted at his level of anger when he described it a “betrayal of the confidences of the

hief Justice John Roberts’s statement only hinted at his level of anger.

LetteRs geous people who are defending “my body, my choice” when we were corralled to get the Covid shots? Those who chose not to lose their jobs included firefighters, police, nurses and doctors who had no choice but to work to save all of us. And I would love for someone to explain to me why my family will have to take a Covid test to get back into the U.S. in July after a family vacation. Are there not thousands of illegals crossing our border every day who are neither tested nor made to be vaccinated? Get ready, people: “My body, my choice” is going to open up a whole new Pandora’s box. Physician-assisted suicide, or “medical aid in dying,” is legal in 10 states and the District of Columbia, and 10 years down the road, or sooner at the rate we’re going, I can bet you, in keeping with the disrespect for human life and the need for doing selfishly what is good for us, we’ll be looking at the following:

Court.” And words alone will not heal the historic damage done to the integrity of the court or sufficiently punish the leaker(s). In its wake, Roberts instructed the marshal of the court to conduct an internal investigation into source of the leak to Politico for the purpose of punishing those involved. There are those in Washington, however, who suggest that assigning this responsibility to an office whose role is not even remotely one of investigations is akin to asking a shop teacher to construct the Hoover Dam. He or she might be able to do it, but you wouldn’t put a lot of trust in the final product. At a time when the very integrity of the high court has been violated, there are voices calling for a stronger response. Glenn Fine, of the Brookings Institute, has written that what is needed is an investigative office worthy of its name and prepared for its purpose. In a recent commentary, Fine wrote, “This situation is why I argued … that the federal judiciary needed an experienced, professional, permanent internal investigative office — an inspector general.” Also in question is what happens to the traitorous individual who is ulti-

mately identified as the leaker? If he or she is an attorney working for one of the justices, the absolute minimum threat should be a highly publicized, humiliating permanent disbarment. The leaker should also face criminal charges, and if there is no current statute providing for criminal prosecution, Congress should immediately enact and implement one. A news service quoted Michael Frisch, described as a former disciplinary counsel in Washington, suggesting that if the perpetrator is an attorney, “It's going to be a career-defining, if not career-ending moment.” Americans need to understand that this leak went far beyond the question of Roe v. Wade. It sought to politicize part of our democracy that was deliberately set above and beyond politics by our founders. You may agree or disagree with the rulings of the Supreme Court, but it is designed to reflect the highest principles of what we call a democratic republic. Damage it and you damage that crucial foundation upon which America has been built and thrived for 233 years. Ronald J. Rosenberg has been an attorney for 42 years, concentrating in commercial litigation and transactions, and real estate, municipal, zoning and land use law. He founded the Garden City law firm Rosenberg Calica & Birney in 1999.

Getting rid of elderly parents who have begun to be a financial, emotional and social burden — or a husband who has Alzheimer’s, and whose wife is emotionally drained, can no longer afford to care for him at home and can’t afford long-term care because that will deplete her financial security. Disabled children, homeless people and then the mentally ill will all be at risk in this disposable society we are creating for ourselves. Many of us are looking around and not recognizing this country that we love so much. The “my body, my choice” movement is bringing all of this to a head. How dare that reader speak of “religion-saturated politics” and how it should not be allowed to damage this country more than it already has. Spare me your preaching, sister, because you’ve got it all backward. JAne DAnTonA GRoGAn Lynbrook
