The Bell more-Merrick Central High School District is kicking off the season by providing all three varsity football teams guardian caps, making it among the first districts on Long Island to do so. In the Central District, there are three high schools — John F. Kennedy High School and Wellington C. Mepham High School in Bellmore, and San ford H.

arrival has been an overall exciting time.
“As long as the history of the Merrick Jewish Centre is,” Klein said, “it’s remarkable that we’re talking about a history yet to be written.” Dorsch is ready to get to work in this post-Covid world, ready to help the congregation redefine what it means to be part of an active synagogue.
RabbiDorschJoshua ThE fAmiLy Of Rabbi
t’s been more than four decades since the Merrick Jewish Centre welcomed a new rabbi. But the Fox Boulevard congregation did just that recently as Joshua Dorsch takes over as its spiritual leader. Yet, he has considerably large shoes to fill, succeeding Rabbi Charles Klein, who retired last October after 43 years.Yet this day almost didn’t happen for Congregation Ohr Torah. Hailing from Philadelphia, Dorsch was con vinced during his college years he’d become a lawyer. In fact, he not only has a degree from the Albert A. List Col lege of Jewish Studies at Colum bia University, he also picked up a degree from the main Manhat tan campus itself, ultimately applying to both law and rabbini cal“Itschools.wasa really difficult deci sion between the two, because growing up in all my formative years, I was very active in leader ship roles in both national and international youth groups,” Dorsch said. “I went to Jewish summer camp, and I loved it.” Yet, the decision on which way to go got easy at the end, as it came down to a single deciding factor: money. “That’s not what I wanted my life to be about,” Dorsch said. “At the end of the day, I went to rabbinical school. And I’ll tell you, to a certain extent I do feel like I went to law school. I just work for a different set of rules.” Dorsch ended up at the Jewish Theological Seminary of America — List College’s parent. He picked up a pair of master’s degrees along the way — one in Jewish edu cation, and another in Midrash and scriptural interpre tation.After nearly six years of additional schooling, Dorsch joined the Beth El Synagogue Center in New Rochelle. That’s where he met his wife, Stephanie. Not long after, Dorsch and Stephanie decided to do something “crazy.” They completely changed the pace of their lives and moved to San Diego, with their infant son so Dorsch could lead the Tifereth Israel Synagogue there. “It was very unknown, very unfamiliar territory for us — and we loved it,” he said. “But three kids and a pan demic later, we decided it was time to come back home.” That’s when he got the call to come back home — or, at least, back to the east coast. The opening at Merrick Jew ish Centre was both exciting and intriguing. The process of finding a new rabbi to succeed Klein was a lengthy one, MJC president Howard Tiegel said. And Covid-19 didn’t help. But also, selecting a new leader can be tricky. Espe cially following someone who had such deep roots in the congregation like Klein. Like Dorsch, Klein arrived with his own young family in tow back in 1978. Many of the Jewish families were young then, Tiegel remembers. And now as Dorsch and his family arrives, Tiegel is seeing it again with a num ber of fresh new faces in the Merrick and Bellmore Jew ish“Incommunity.asense,”
Klein, too, remains active in synagogue life, but describes the spiritual continuity of the Merrick Jewish Centre — which opened in 1929 — as a bit of an anomaly.

“The pandemic was transformative,” he said. “As we begin to emerge from Covid, in what is a transformed view of the world and synagogue life, it’s about rebuild ing in a way that makes sense for what it means to be a member of a synagogue — and the Jewish community — in the wake of the 21st century.”
“When you look at the recent history of the Jewish community of Long Island, there is, sadly, a really high number of synagogues that have closed or merged,” the rabbi said. “The Merrick Jewish Centre has managed to remain a robust, dynamic, forward-looking synagogue.”
Rabbbi Joshua Dorsch and his family welcomed to lively and vibrant synagogue
Tiegel said, “we wanted to go back to the future.”Dorsch recognized the “enormous progress and ongo ing potential of the congregation” due to his “youthful spirit” and “soul of a person with greater life experienc es,” Tiegel said, something he himself saw during Dorsch’s first visit to MJC last December. “It was love at first sight,” Tiegel said. “Not only from Rabbi Dorsch to the congregation, but from the congre gation to Dorschhim.”now lives in Merrick with his wife, sons Nadav, 5, and Avi, 5 months, and daugh ter Ziva, 2. He said they’re happy to be back on the east coast, close to their extended family. “I will say, for bet ter or for worse, my youth is one of my strengths,” Dorsch said. “I am commit ted to lifelong learn ing, youth engage ment, and fourwhotheiranyingintellectuallyreligiously,socially,andengagcongregantsinwaythatmakeslivesbetter.”AliSussman,joinedMJCyearsago,saidDorsch’s
Klein’s hope is that Dorsch can take what has been created and use it as a foundation to build upon.
“It’s a transition for sure, but for some people, it’s just a start,” said Sussman, who also serves on the congrega tion’s executive board. “We keep saying it’s like magic — history repeating itself. Our families can hang out, and our kids can play. But we also have someone to turn to. People just really want to build connections and hold onto Jewish tradition and culture.”

NFL training camps began this year, you started to see the implementation of the guardian caps,” he said, “and not only at the NFL level, but the NCAA level as well.”Caballero said he learned about the caps from one of the district’s football coaches, who had received an email from a sales representative at Guardian Inno vations, the company that created the caps. Earlier this month, Caballero decid ed to research the caps, and calculate costs, as the expense was not in the dis trictAfterbudget.speaking with Superintendent Mike Harrington, and the district’s Board of Education, it was determined that acquiring the caps — 20 per team — would be possible. The caps were ordered, and within a week, the teams had them, just in time for the start of this season’s football practices on Aug. 22. The caps are foam-like in appearance, lightweight, and strap onto the helmet with Velcro. They will mainly be used by specific positions groups, Caballero explained, players that face a greater risk for physical contact. This includes line men, tight ends and linebackers. If a play er is recovering from a concussion, how ever, or is deemed at risk for a head injury, a coach can choose to have that specific player also wear a cap.

“They’re very lightweight,” Caballero said. “The kids are using them, without question, without issue.” Matt Moody, the head football coach at Mepham High, said he’s seen the caps before, and was always intrigued by their actual“They’reuse. an additional thing to help with player safety,” he said. “Anything to help protect the kids is a great addition to theDataprogram.”shows the caps reduce the force of impact, up to 33 percent, according to Guardian Innovations. The caps also insu late, reducing up to 20 degrees of static heat. They are slick to the touch, fit all helmet sizes, and are also machine wash able, which is an added bonus, Caballero said.Moody has long been a football coach, first at Marist College when he was a stu dent, and later at Deer Park High School. He held various assistant coaching posi tions at Mepham, and this is his first year as the head coach of the program. He said so far, he’s been implementing the caps as suggested, giving them to mostly high impact position groups, and one to a play er who suffered a head injury during the spring.Moody himself had 10 concussions as a player, and sees why the caps are so important. “Once you have one concus sion,” he said, “you’re more susceptible to futureTakingconcussions.”thecapson and off is easy, Caballero said. The cap goes on top of the helmet. There is no spreading of bodily fluids from player to player. “The kids do it on their own,” Caballe ro said. “(The caps) are not cumbersome.” The caps, for now, are only being worn at practices, Caballero explained, because they are not approved for game play yet. That’s an issue, he said, that is even above county-sanctioned rules. Something such as approving guardian caps for games would need to be done so at a statewide level.Even though the caps are only being used by varsity players, if the initiative takes off, the district make look to pur chase“Wemore.implemented this with the inten tion of it spreading across the board,” Caballero said. “We are piloting it with varsity players.” The safety of student athletes, Caballe ro added, is always a priority. “This is a small price to pay to further improve safe ty for our student-athletes,” he wrote in an email. “The BMCHSD has always been willing to attempt to stay ahead of the curve and I am proud to say that this ini tiative will be in place at the start of try outs at all three of our high schools.”
All of the work for the project gets compiled into an Eagle Binder. “He has to bring it back to Cannon,” Pasquale explained. “He overlooks every thing. And then they send it to Phoenix, the main place where they send all their paperwork. (In Phoenix), they’re the ones that determine if it’s approved or not.”

Courtesy Joseph Ciniglio AspiRiNg EAgLE scOut Joseph Ciniglio is preparing for his project, which will bring rennovations to a VFW hall in Belmore.
oseph Ciniglio, a senior at Sanford H. Calhoun High School in Mer rick, is working towards earning the rank of Eagle Scout, the high est achievable rank in the Boy Scouts of America.Ciniglio, 17, of Merrick, has been involved with Boy Scouts since he was in the fifth grade, bridging over to his cur rent troop, Troop 225, when he was around the age of 12. His troop, he said, is involved in various community-oriented projects, and regularly runs food drives for local pantries. The troop has around 40 active scouts, ranging in age from 12 to 17. Since he’s bridged over, he said he has assisted his fellow troop members com plete their Eagle Scout projects, whether it be during the fundraising portion, or actual execution of the project. His planned project will bring exterior renovations to the Veterans of Foreign Wars’ hall on Bedford Avenue in Bell more. “My project, I kind of like it, because it’s a good alliteration,” he said. “I am going to power wash, plant, and paint around the facility.” The façade of the building is tall and white, with large columns that extend upward and attach to an overhang. The building, and some of the rust that has accumulated on the columns, will be power washed, and repainted. Additional
Every project that gets proposed must go through someone at the Theodore Roosevelt Council of the BSA, which is the council that Cingilio’s troop is over seen by. Ciniglio’s father, Pasquale Cini glio, a Uniform Leader for Troop 225, said that person is Austin Cannon, on the Eagle Board Chair. “Every project that has to be reviewed goes through Cannon,” Pasqaule said. “Every scout has to write up a proposal, and he tells (Cannon) what his ideas are.” “They can totally recommend you to change stuff,” Ciniglio added. “But in my experience, I got approved, and the one thing he told me to do was just specify a little more detail.”
To see the renovations made to the building after Ciniglio’s project is com plete, the VFW Hall is at 2400 Bedford Ave. in Bellmore.
Aspiring Eagle Scout prepares his project
For Ciniglio, he said he’s really excited to see the work get done, and for people in the community to benefit from the proj ect. “It’s weird, but (I want) to get it done, because I am a senior now, and if I leave it for later, it’s going to be very stressful doing it,” he explained. “It’s definitely something to look forward to.”

ly, some of the yellow lines that indicate parking spaces as well as directional arrows in the VFW’s parking lot will also get a fresh coat of paint. Outside of the building, some older shrubs will be dug up, especially the ones that surround a headstone, and new plantings, as well as some limestone rocks, will be laid down. In more ways than one, the building’s exterior will get a facelift. The process of planning a project, and figuring out what you want to do, is one of the hardest parts, Ciniglio said. “One thing I was told, was make sure to log everything — write it down, write it down, write it down,” he said. “There’s a workbook online, and there’s some things to fill out as you go. The hardest part is you actually figuring out what you want to do.”Hesaid it can be tricky to plan a proj ect, and start making contact with poten tial beneficiaries. Ciniglio knew people at the VFW Hall through a family connec tion, which helped get the momentum for his project started. Planning the project, and going through many stages of approval, also takes a lot of time, and a lot of work.“There is definitely some wait time,” he said. “You have to wait for emails, or even for getting supplies.”
Ciniglio’s project is set to take place on Sept. 24, outside of the VFW Hall. Before then, he needs to fundraise, and a car wash for the purpose of doing just that, will take place at Advanced Auto Parts, located at 209 Sunrise Highway, Merrick on Sept. 18, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The funds raised will be used for getting mate rials needed to accomplish the project, his dad explained. Ciniglio will also accept donations of supplies or tools. After the project is finished, there is still a lot of work to be done.

“He looks to be a force to be reckoned with,” Ramsay said.Offensively, Ramsay is looking for the Lions to take things up a notch under the direction of new quarter back Luke Sprague, a transfer from LIU-Post. “He’s a tre mendous pocket passer with an extremely strong arm,” Ramsay said. “We feel he’s someone who can elevate our offense to another level for the next two years.”
The Lions, who finished 6-4 last season, traditionally field a fierce defense and Ramsey believes the foundation is in place for the unit to thrive again.
The Lions were the No. 1-ranked NJCAA Division III program most of last season and are looking to get back to the championship game (Red Grange Bowl in Glen Ellyn, Illinois) after falling just short to DuPage, 34-29, after beating the Chaparrals by two points during the regular season.

Both are returning starters who go sideline to sideline and excel at tackling, Ramsay said. “Jack was one of our defensive leaders last year and came into camp in outstanding shape,” the coach noted. “Jaylen is similar. He’s a tough, strong kid.” Hernandez is a shutdown cornerback who’ll get the toughest weekly assignment in the secondary, Ramsay said. “He’s not the biggest guy (5-foot-9) but he can go against big receivers and shut them down,” Ramsay said. “He has great all-around skills and is one of our vocal leaders.”Campbell will spearhead the pass rush from the edge and comes off an impressive first season. “I’m excited to see what he can do after last year,” Ramsay said.

CLASS: 2022-23 SCHOOL YEAR 11 20221,September—HERALDBELLMORE
The first time you hold your child in your arms, you make promises to love, protect and always be there to guide him or her. Then reality intrudes.Unfortunately for us and fortunately for them, things such as school force us to release our little ones for a while and put them in the care of teachers and school administrators, who must oversee several kids at once. Suddenly, our precious bundle faces a must-be-decided-now quandary and finds that mommy or daddy isn’t there to make all the decisions. Sometimes the situation is even scary. Challenges face our chil dren in the form of peer pressure, drugs, sex and bullying.Clinical psychologist and author Dr. John Duffy says: “Parents do need to talk with their kids about bullying, sex and peer pressure. Many parents I’ve worked with over the years will pro vide time for a lecture, often a one-time-only lecture. But they will often fail to provide time for ongoing discussion of these topics, which is what children really need. They need to know that we as parents are available to them as guides should they need help navigating the world of peer pressure.” “I work with teens and tweens. They are at particular risk for peer pressure to participate in sexual activity, drink or smoke pot. Many are bul lied in ways we could not have even imagined a generation ago (texting, social media). They need parents who can help them in real time. The stronger the connection between parent and child the likelier a parent’s word will be heeded and the likelier a parent’s limits will be honored.”When you have that all-important conversa tion, Dr. Fran Walfish recommends: “The most important thing your child or teen needs on his first day of school is to not feel lonely or isolated. Talk with your kid about what it takes to be a good friend. Include what feels comfortable and what doesn’t. Teach your child to follow her instincts.”“Most kids know right from wrong. Teach your kid to listen to his internal voice and follow his intuition, not the crowd. I would wait to dis cuss sex and cyber-bullying and other issues so as not to bombard and overwhelm your child before school starts. Too much talk can raise anxiety when your goal here is preparation and to reduce anxiety.”

“I’d position it more as ‘making good choices’ versus ‘peer pressure,’ because big picture, if your kid makes good choices throughout life, he/she is setting himself/herself up for success,” advises Amy Kossoff Smith, founder of The MomTini Lounge. “I’d advocate sitting down before school to talk about your routine/expec tations, and in that context, say that there will be many opportunities to decide what is best for him/her and that you hope he/she will come to you for advice when needed and will make good choices, especially when presented with ideas or opportunities that may not lead to a good out come.”

Stay Involved — And Communicate Keeping the lines of communication open is vital. Your child needs to know that you are will ing to listen, discuss his or her experiences and not judge. Learn to listen to your child; don’t just lecture him and assume he will do only what you’ve told him. Lead by example; it’s hard to persuade a child not to drink while you’re knock ing back a frosty mug of beer. Make sure that your child is involved in activities that inspire a sense of belonging; being a vital member of a team will encourage her to feel good about her self. Make sure you know what television shows and movies your child is seeing, and talk with him about the values and situations portrayed.

Katz has volunteered as a counselor for five years, deciding to join after she retired from teaching. “I wanted to do so mething meaningful, that would give back,” she said. “It has really added a lot to my Volunteerlife.” counselors go through rig orous training, taking part in shadow calls with counselors already on the job. Anyone interested in volunteering can call the crisis center’s business line at (516)The826-0244.National Suicide Prevention Hot line has simplified from what used to be a complicated 10-digit toll-free number to just 988.
The crisis center has been hard at work preparing for the walk. “We have paid staff working on it, and a lot of volunteers,” Slagg said. “Everyone has worked really hard to make it happen. I know from our people — our staff and volunteers — we’re really excited to bring it back together.”
The Long Island Crisis Center was founded in 1971, and has spent the past half-century as a round-the-clock sui cide prevention and crisis intervention center. It offers family counseling, sup port group, and various forms of health education.
the walk attracted upward of 500 people, Engel said. Cur rently, there are a number of people reg istered, and donations have started to come in, too. “Our goal this year is $50,000,” Engel said. “In the past, we’ve definitely sur passed that.” A big part of the crisis center’s work is helping those identify as part of the greater LGBTQ community. Engel has worked extensively in the past with the center’s LGBTQ+ youth organization, Pride for Youth. There is direct correla tion between what the crisis center and Pride for Youth does because, Engel said, “suicide numbers are so high in the LGBTQ+ community.”
The Long Island Crisis Center rents space from the Bellmore Presbyterian Church, and its offices are just behind the sanctuary at 2740 Martin Ave. For more on the crisis center and the pro grams it offers, visit LongIslandCrisis Center.org.

ike everything else in our rapidly changing culture, artistic styles, technique and process continue to evolve. Such is the case with printmaking. Hofstra University Museum of Art’s new exhibit, “Off the Press,” explores the relationship between the artist and the complexities of the printmaking craft. “Our goal with all our exhibits is to make our permanent collection accessible to the public,” says Karen Albert,the museum’s director and curator. “And one of the big strengths of our collection (5,200 pieces in all) is the print collection.”
Visitors can view 30 prints — works dating from the late 16th century to the 21st — by Romare Bearden, Helen Frankenthaler, Henry Moore, Alison Saar and Andy Warhol, among otherss. A woodblock and copper etching plate are also on display.
A print, in the broadest definition, is a work of art composed of ink on paper created through an indirect transfer process. Four major printmaking methods have developed over the centuries: relief, intaglio, and the planographic techniques of lithography and screenprinting.“Printmakers may choose between methods to produce a distinct type of image or line quality,” Albert explains.”Artists will choose the technique based on how they want the final image to look. This exhibition will give viewers insight into how and why such artistic choices are made.”

Of particular note, she cites Romare Bearden’s “The Family” for his use of tinting and photo engraving. And Henry Moore’s “13 Standing Figures,” which visually relates to a sculpture that resides on Hofstra’s South Campus. Woodcuts, the oldest form of printmaking, appeared in fifth century Chinese art, and in Europe since the 15th century. Early prints — most commonly woodcuts, wood engravings and metal plate engravings — were often produced to provide illustrations for publications and, in the hierarchy of artists, printmakers were considered “lesser than” painters and sculptors.
European and American artists began experimenting with printmaking in the late 19th to early 20th century. More recent decades saw the establishment of printmaking studios, where well-

Historical Society of the Merricks to resume meetings, and address some upcoming initiatives T he Historical Society of the Mer ricks will resume meetings this month, as it looks ahead to future endeavors, and seeks new mem bers interested in joining. The Historical Society’s Acting Presi dent Joe Baker shared last week that a newly appointed board member will soon be overseeing the society’s operations. John Pinto, from Merrick, will be nomi nated for the position of president, and has agreed to take on the role. Last fall, the society’s former president Larry Garfinkel died, and in the interim, Baker has been trying to rally support to have the orginal Merrick Library become a one- or two-room museum. The building is currently owned and maintained by the Merrick Union Free School District. “I spoke the superintendent of schools, Dominic Palma, and he’s in agreement, but he said (the decision) is not up to him,” Baker explained. “It is up to the res idents, to be voted on, with a referen dum.”The museum proposal was covered by the Herald in February, and Baker said residents that read the article are excited to see what can be done. Inside the build ing, the Historical Society already has some artifacts. As the Historical Society continues to pursue the proposal, Baker said he’s con fident in Pinto’s ability to lead the group.
“We need someone that’s really talent ed with the history of Merrick — some one that’s really, really interested in dig ging and finding out answers to many questions that may come up,” he said. “I find that someone to be John Pinto.”

Q. We were told by a building inspector that we need a permit for making our garage into a bedroom and bathroom. He gave us 10 days to “respond.” He told us we just need an architect to file a sketch of the room; he would even help us expedite the permit. We called around and are being told some crazy things and high costs to prepare the sketch. Why are we being told we need all these things, like a survey, a possible Sandy repair permit, an energy report, etc.? The inspector didn’t say we needed any of this. Who’s telling us the truth? We’re so confused.

For example, there are many regulations for sleeping spaces and bathrooms, such as means of escape, minimum space size, plumbing require ments and use. In most jurisdictions, the extra bed room has been used as a non-permitted rental, so the examiner of the plans, not the inspector you met, may have a policy to first get proof that you are not illegally renting the space. If you have a door to the outside from the room, for example, they will require that it be substituted with a win dow or blocked entirely with wall materials, mean ing that you have some remedial construction to do.
I’m working with a few files right now where the owners didn’t know that the ceiling heights are lower than allowed by state building code, so, in addition to applying for a building permit, we are in a multi-month processes of first applying for a building code variance. This requires much more documentation, time and cost to the owner that the inspector might have noticed and said something about when they saw the spaces in question, but the owner wasn’t made aware of it. The owner was also only told they needed an architect or engineer and a sketch. This creates the false sense that the much more complicated process was simple when it wasn’t, and left the licensed professional to look like the enforcer of the law and “the bad guy,” pos sibly trying to rack up more fees.
A. I’ve always won dered why people in your situation aren’t given a more thorough explana tion of all the things need ed for a permit. Code words like “sketch,” “expedite” and “simple,” along with phrases like “all you need is a permit,” or “you just …” are mis leading. Making a much more complicated process seem so simple that peo ple have a false sense of what is needed only adds stress and mistrust to the problem when a licensed individual is trying to get you through this legal procedure. Couple this with the knowledge of codes, structure and pitfalls that a seasoned professional must apply, and you may have a better sense of how you got pulled into a much more involved situation than you were told about and why it costs more than you assumed.
Site plan, zoning analysis, energy loss calcula tions and more are all required. Good luck!

All over again I wonder at the deep, glorious expanse of white sand stretching down to the surf. This week the sun was brilliant in a blue sky studded with dar ling puffs of white. Oil tankers rode the horizon. The waves were lively, crashing around the rock jetties. I walked along the beach and took notice of everything I could hear: my rubber soles scuffing on the sand, the cawing of the seabirds roost ing around me, a jet leaving a ghost trail overhead.Afewpeople, widely scattered, were enjoying the day. One lone fisherman stood out on the rocks. The scene was soli tary; the heartbeat slowed, the mind qui eted and I felt like my better self as I set new footprints into the sand. At the tip of one jetty someone had placed a large American flag, which was tattered by the wind. If I knew how to write music, I would have composed an anthem from that image. It was a perfect experience. Isn’t this the most we can hope for—to leave our worries behind or at least set them aside for a while- and immerse ourselves in a setting of peace and beauty?

able, human error or deliberate attack, CDC fights disease and supports commu nities and citizens to do the same. CDC increases the health security of our nation. As the nation’s health protection agency, CDC saves lives and protects peo ple from health threats.” It had 76 years of experience to prepare for what to do if a highly contagious virus started killing Americans. In the 1880s, Congress commissioned the Marine Hospital Service with exam ining passengers on arriv ing ships for signs of infec tious diseases in order to prevent epidemics. To spe cialize in that work, the MHS set up a small lab (on Staten Island), which would grow to be known as the National Institutes of Health. So the NIH has had about 130 years learning how to use medical science and best public health practices to prevent viral illnesses from becoming pandemics that might kill millions.Andyet in the winter of 2020 Ameri cans had the impression that the CDC and the NIH didn’t know what the hell they were doing, even though they condescend ingly acted like know-it-alls. That was a disastrous blow to our respect for those institutions. Worse than that was a suspi cion that their leaders, Drs. Anthony Fauci and Francis Collins, knew more about China’s infectious disease research than they were letting on. It’s hard to tell what’s worse: Thinking our institutions are incompetent, or suspecting they’re hiding the whole truth from us. Less critical than a bungling govern ment and inept disease-control regime, there are other examples of once reliable and now ineffective institutions. Are you getting your mail as regularly and accu rately delivered as you once did? How do you assess the common sense and general intelligence of most college grads you deal with on a daily basis? Do they inspire you with confidence in the future? When you deal with a business in person or by phone do you feel like they know what they’re doing? When you read supposedly fact-based articles in newspapers do you quickly see the bias or advocacy going on? Do you think new fellow employees are less able than the ones they replaced? What other examples of incompetence do you frequently encounter? Institutions have only ever been as com petent as the people in them and who lead them. It’s up to us to demand that our fed eral, state, county, local and school district institutions act competently. It’s up to peo ple who call themselves journalists to dis cover and report the unbiased whole truth, without trading that truth for access to those institutions. It’s up to us to vote.
We must find our own peace of mind and cultivate our own sources of comfort as we support our democracy. As Labor Day approaches, we need to grab what’s left of summer and head to the beach. This is what we can do for ourselves as human beings living in challenging times Long Islanders are truly blessed with a natural remedy for stress since most of us are within driving distance of open water.

Faye was able to fund her college by not only pressing a button over and over again at a factory all summer long, but because of Washington’s commitment to herBiden’seducation.move on restoring that com mitment is a start, but there’s still a long way to go.

President Biden’s own numbers paint a horrifying picture for America’s postsecondary education system. The cost of a public four-year university has sky rocketed nearly 200 percent since 1980, but federal aid through Pell Grants has grown just 20 percent. In 1980, Pell Grants could offset 75 per cent of your total college expenses. Now? It’s barely 30 percent. That’s not how a country makes education a priority — and it’s certainly not how a country remains a superpower. This grant forgiveness isn’t a handout. It’s simply our government trying to catch up on the commitment made to each and every young person so many years ago. That means ensuring public funding is there while controlling costs at public universities. And at the very least, make community college free. Even the Founding Fathers felt educa tion was essential in ensuring democra cy, although it would take decades to establish broad-access public schools for children. In 1910, just one out of every 10 people had high school diplomas. Today, it’s above 90 percent. Investing in education makes a differ ence — but so does not investing in edu cation. Except that creates the kind of difference we’d rather not experience.

ummers are for beaches, barbe cues and outdoor concerts. But for Faye, each and every day of her summers during her college years were spent inside a hot factory, pushing a button many times over. It was tedious, but it came with a pay check. One that, by the time her summer was over, she could fund just about every single cent of the upcoming fall and spring semesters toward her goal of shaping young minds as an elementary school teacher. And here she was, in front of a class of students, sharing her tenacity. Her persistence.Exceptthis was the early 1980s. A time when tuition, fees, room and board cost just under $3,000 for the whole year — a little more than $10,000 in today’s money. But that’s not the same for teachers walking into our classrooms today as fall classes begin — not just across Nassau County, but across the country. That number is now just under $29,000, according to the Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce, as reported by Forbes last spring. While those numbers haven’t moved too much since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, they’ve certainly climbed significantly over the past 40 years — nearly three times the rate of inflation.Goingto college is supposed to pre pare our best young minds for the future. Instead, it creates significant burdens, with recent graduates carrying debts with them in six figures, many times before they even buy their first car, let alone their first house. Student loans are typically structured to only be present for the first 10 years of a graduate’s career. But a 2013 study by One Wisconsin Institute say that is more like the first 21 years of a career. That means many college graduates are help ing to secure student loans for their kids, while still paying off their own. It’s a “circle of life” that shouldn’t even exist. Yet it does. And whether we are product of colleges from the 1980s or today, it affects each and every one of us. For one, the number of high school seniors choosing college after gradua tion is dropping. Just 15.9 million pur sued undergraduate degrees in 2020, according to the U.S. Department of Edu cation’s Institute of Education Sciences. That’s from a peak of 18.1 million in 2010, and has steadily declined ever since.Yet, more than $1.6 trillion in student loans remain outstanding for 45 million people, according to the White House. That’s an average of $36,000 per student. Such a debt load also makes it harder for new college graduates to get started on their own, independent lives. In fact, more than half of college students sur veyed by Pew Research Center said they were back home living with their par ents in late 2020 — the highest percent age since the Great Depression. Sure, we could blame Covid-19, but those numbers were already past 47 percent and climb ing even before the pandemic.

Herald editorial
Frankly, I wouldn’t mind paying higher taxes if it meant that my fellow Amer icans would receive the care they needed. But call it whatever you want. You already pay “taxes” to pri vate insurance companies in the form of premiums, copays and deductibles. And when expensive emer gency services are utilized for prevent able health problems, you foot part of the bill.Contrary to popular opinion, govern ment programs are extremely efficient.
study, from the University of Massachu setts Amherst, put the price tag of singlepayer at just under $3 trillion, compared with the $4.1 trillion the American Medi cal Association estimated we spent on health care in 2020, meaning single-payer could save us $22 trillion over 20 years. Of course, there are con cerns about higher taxes.
Letters FrAmework by Tim Baker
Remind them that single-payer is a policy supported by a majority of Americans. Health care policy shouldn’t be about providing “access to quality, affordable health care.” It should be about providing quality health care, period.
The program would also save us money. A study from Yale University esti mated that a single-payer system would save us $450 billion per year. Another

Why the heck should health care be affordable?
B e cause as far as I can see, health care shouldn’t just be affordable. It should be free.

Can they do the new math required (or maybe not required in Florida) of elementary school children, and will they teach his tory the way it happened? Oh, I forgot — books have been censored or removed in thatMystate.guess is that the children in Flori da will be deprived of a decent educa tion, which will render them ignorant and eventually produce the next genera tion of voters DeSantis wants.

A final worry is, “Would I lose my existing health insurance?” No. It’s a pre carious time in America right now, but no one’s coverage would be taken away.
When did the idea that we should pay for necessary medical procedures become accepted? It’s as barbaric as demanding payment to breathe air. And the concept of affordability is completely subjective. A million-dollar procedure is affordable to a billionaire, but for those who live in poverty, coughing up a couple of thousand dollars a year — or even a couple of hundred — for bare-bones private insurance is onerous.
A s election season heats up, we are once again hearing the same worn-out message parrot ed by Democrats hoping to get elected. You know it: “I support access to quality, affordable health care.” But no one ever questions why health care should be this way. Because as far as I can see, health care shouldn’t just be affordable. It should be free. Under rare cir cumstances, like in rural areas of the country, get ting access to health care is gen uinely difficult. There are situa tions in which there is a real shortage of doc tors, and they must be addressed. But for the vast majority of Americans, the real barrier to health care is its prohibitively high cost.You have “access” to health care in the same way you have “access” to a Lambo rghini. What’s stopping you? Go get one! Clearly, the problem isn’t supply; the cars are there. It’s the fact that for most Amer icans, it’s way too expensive. The difference is, you can live without a Lambo, but you can’t live without health care.
JANE GLUCKMAN Rockville Centre
I’m not suggesting that our good, hardworking doc tors work for free. Rather, we ought to provide every one in the country with uni versal health care through a single-payer program. Everyone would pay into a pool, and the government would use that money to pay doctors for treatment.
Your current health insurance would be phased into the new plan over several years, during which you could still access services.Thepath forward is clear: We need to move toward a single-payer system in the U.S. It will save money, lives, nerves, and a whole lot of paperwork. Luckily, we don’t need to move forward alone. We can look to our Pacific ally, Taiwan, which already has an outstanding single-payer system. Taiwan has a higher life expec tancy, a lower infant mortality rate and a lower maternal mortality rate — all for less than we spend in the U.S. If you want to reform our brutal health care system, find and call your state senator at nysenate.gov/find-mysenator. There is legislation that has passed the Assembly called the New York Health Act, which would enact singlepayer in New York state. Contact your U.S. representative as well, or call Sen. Chuck Schumer, at (202) 224-6542, or Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, at (202) 224-4451.
Thoughts or comments about our stories?
Social Security spends less than 1 percent of its budget on administration, and Medicare spends 2 percent, compared with a low estimate of 17 percent among private insurers, who spend many of your “tax” dollars on profits and market ing rather than health care.

The list of potential benefits is long. If you lost your job, you wouldn’t lose your health insurance. Small businesses wouldn’t have to bear the enormous cost of employee health care. Unions would no longer have to negotiate for health care benefits; 100 percent coverage would finally be achieved; and we would no lon ger lose 45,000 Americans a year due to a lack of health insurance.

The high court ‘took no one’s rights away’
27 20221,September—HERALDBELLMORE
To the IlanaEditor:Greenberg’s column in the Aug. 18-24 issue, “Scientists grapple with meaning of life. Why should judges?” was well thought out and insightful. She walked the fine line between sides. She pointed out that the goalposts are always changing with the science, and that judges may not be the best people to make that determina tion. I agree — but her argument fell flat when she discussed the recent Supreme CourtGreenbergdecision.states, “the Supreme Court should not infringe on my personal right to make that choice.” My understanding is that the court took no one’s rights away.Itruled that the “right” to an abortion is not based in the Constitution, and that any laws about abortion should come from the people, through their state or federal representatives. So the court didn’t take Greenberg’s rights away; it put those rights back into her hands! What is she going to do about it?
