D’Esposito claims victory over A special visit from Gillen in congressional race Israel’s chief rabbi

Anthony D’Esposito says he’s going to Washington. But as the clock struck midnight, turning Election Day into Wednesday, his Democratic opponent, Laura Gillen, wasn’t quite ready to concede the 4th Congressional District race.

“We’re going to wait until every vote is counted,” Gillen told supporters in Freeport late Tuesday night. “It’s an extremely close race. There’s still a lot of ballots out there.”

As Gillen spoke, however, unofficial election returns from Nassau County showed D’Esposito leading her by 8,000 votes, with 87 percent of precincts reporting. A half-hour later, the county Board of Elections completed the counting, increasing D’Esposito’s lead to 10,000 votes. It was 51.9 percent for D’Eposito out of the more than 266,000 votes counted, compared with Gillen’s 48.1 percent.

Julianna’s Works of Heart raises over $5,000

By JORDAN VALLONE jvallone@liherald.com

ulianna Tand’s charity paint night was a massive success.

The 10-year-old from North Merrick began raising money a few years ago for the Ronald McDonald House Charities, a nonprofit whose mission is to create and support programs that improve children’s health and wellbeing. It operates a 42-room house in New Hyde Park in which families can stay when their children undergo treatment at the nearby Cohen Children’s Medical Center.

Prior to the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, Julianna and her family participated in a baking program at the New Hyde Park home — they’d bring their own supplies, and make various baked goods for the families living there.

Everything changed when the pandemic started, and due to the precautionary measures the charity had to take, the baking program ended.

Julianna stilled wanted to give back, and began to sell clay creations, at a small fee of just $10 a character, through her small business, Julianna’s Works of HeART. Aside from taking orders from clients, she raffles off some bigger pieces — a figurine of U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, who was famously photographed sitting by himself on a folding chair on the steps of the Capitol during President Biden’s inauguration — sold in April of 2021, raking in $3,100.

Committed to giving back, Julianna decided it was time to step up the game.

With help from her mother, Jennifer, and grandmother Debbie Viola, a fellow artist, she organized a charity paint night, that took place last week on Nov. 4 at the Sacred Heart R.C. Church in North Merrick.

Entry to the paint night cost $50, and there were raffles tickers and items available for purchase. Her grandmother led the paint night, instructing the crowd how to paint sunflowers on a canvas.

Jennifer shared with the Herald that 50 people attended, and with 50 raffle baskets donated by local Bellmore-Merrick businesses, the support they received allowed them to raise $5,930.

That total allowed Julianna to hit her lifetime goal of raising over $10,000 for the charity. Prior to the event, she’d raised

JuLiANNA TAND — a charitable 10-year-old from North Merrick — has been selling clay creations through her small business Julianna’s Works for HeART for a few years now, with proceeds directly benefiting the Ronald McDonald House Charities. over $7,000 from her sales.

On top of that, Jennifer said even bigger things are coming.

“This week she will also launch her own personalized donation link on the RMH website for future direct donations to be associated with her,” Jennifer wrote in an email. “They’re helping us set up a virtual, silent auction for the month of November for some extra, big ticket items a few people were generous to donate.

“The total donation amount associated with the Paint Night will definitely be larger,” she added, “which is hard to imagine.”

Julianna hopes that her story inspires others — especially young people such as herself. “I just want to say that I hope to show other kids my age that you don’t have to be a grown up to make a difference,” she said. “I’m one kid, and I can make a big difference in the lives of others.”

Viola said she is overwhelmingly proud of the person Julianna has become.

“She is such a sweet and sensitive kid,” Viola said. “It makes me so happy to see her pursuing this. It only takes one person. It’s kind of like, ‘be the one’ — and I look at her as the one who is making a difference.”

This stretch of greatness by Calhoun’s boys’ cross-country team has just one hurdle left – bring home to Merrick a first-ever state championship.

It won’t be easy but the appropriately named Colts are on quite a gallop after winning their third straight Nassau County Class 2 championship on Oct. 29, then qualifying last Saturday as the Section 8 champion for participation in the state tournament in Syracuse.

The state championship meet takes place this Saturday with Calhoun seeded fifth.

“Our goal now is to win states,’’ said coach David Hendler, finishing his 29th season at the helm.

Their dominance at the county championships was epic as seven runners notched All-County honors (top 25). Because only the top five scores are recorded for team title, the Colts’ last two runners didn’t even count in the final score.

Their lead performer is junior Logan Schaeffler, who won the county race with 17 seconds to spare and then captured the state qualifier with similar ease on the 5K Bethpage State Park course.

Schaeffler is one of the few underclassmen on the senior-laden team and has been on all three county-title Calhoun clubs. Last year, Schaeffler finished 7th in the state qualifier meet at Bethpage as the club also made it as a full team to states.

“He’s been a stud since his freshman year,’’ Hendler said. “He hates to lose and is tough as nails.”

Schaeffler also is rated as a top-notch student. “He does everything well,’’ said Hendler, a math/computer teacher at Calhoun.

Schaeffler believes winning it all in Syracuse is not out of the realm, even if Calhoun has never pulled the feat.

“It’s up there,’’ Schaeffler said when asked Calhoun’s chances. “It’s pretty nice to go two straight years. It’s definitely about going hard on those hills. It’s going to be a factor.’’

Schaeffler felt his performance at counties (15:50.73) was “pretty average’’ so he

Calhoun’s other six stars, all seniors, can’t be dismissed either. The next four top finishers at counties that measured in the final team score were William Hughes (3), Jonathan Sferratore (6), Gavin Giordano (13) and Matthew Belmonte (16.) For good measure, Michael Gunn (21) and Jeremy Sirof (23) raced to a top-25 finish, earning All-County honors. This is as strong a team and as strong a three-year run as Hendler has ever seen.

“We’ve had strong teams in the past,’’ Handler said. “But it’s up there.’’

When the coach looks back at this recent burst, he points to a vibrant core of leadership from captains that have

revolved each year. From the 2021 title squad, he lost two standouts in John Schwab and Alex Rosario.

In 2022, the captains are Giordano. Sferratore and Belmonte.

“The captains are just doing a really good job of training younger kids,’’ Hendler said. “So they know they have to do their distance, know to run on Sundays. So they’re doing the right things.’’

One of Hendler’s largest challenges will be in 2023 when he loses his starry trove of seniors.

“The team will be young next year, mostly sophomores, but thanks to the captains, the kids are prepared to do the work to be successful,’’ he said.

Police crack down on unsafe cars on the road mwilson@liherald.com

The last thing any driver wants is an obstructed view out of their car windows.

But it’s the same for the Nassau County Police Department as well — except it’s not looking out, but instead looking in.

The department has launched Operation Safe Streets, targeting illegal license plates — those that are obstructed or defaced — along with improperly tinted windows and passengers not wearing seatbelts.

The initiative continues through the end of the year, and includes both education and enforcement. But it’s not just about safety, according to Nassau police commissioner Patrick Ryder — these violations typically lead to other criminal activity.

Safe Streets uses officers from a number of police units targeting drivers who are misusing their license plates or have tinted windows that don’t allow officers to see inside. Many will be singled out through various checkpoints set up around the county.

“We know that distracted driving is still the number one cause for accidents and death on our roads,” Ryder told reporters during a news conference last week in Eisenhower Park. “But there is a criminal element that is out there defrauding and taking advantage of the system, committing crimes by using different

Mallory Wilson/Herald

NASSAu COuNtY pOLICe ran a safety checkpoint on Merrick Avenue near Eisenhower Park last week as part of its new Operation Safe Streets program. The initiative aims to crack down on illegal license plates, tinted windows, and expired registrations. types of plates.”

This initiative comes at a time where more people are out and about preparing for the holidays.

“As we are approaching the time of year when people are going out there spending money, they’re shopping. They have gifts. There will be a lot of cars on the road,” Nassau County executive Bruce Blakeman said. “We are going to fight as hard as we can to make sure that all of our communities are safe. That our residential communities are safe. That our busi-

ness districts are safe.”

Paper license plates are a much bigger problem than many might realize, Ryder said. Although typically given to a new car buyer at the dealership before they can get their more permanent plates from the state, there are those who try to copy the plates, change the expiration date, and then sell them online.

“So, until our officers stop that car, we don’t know it’s a fake plate,” Ryder said.

“In the meantime, they’re running red lights. They’re going through (license

plate readers) after they’ve committed crimes, and we can’t detect it because it doesn’t come back to the right vehicle.”

Nassau police made more than 1,000 arrests last year for fraudulent license plates, more than triple from 2020. Traffic tickets are on the rise, too. There were 73,000 summonses written in 2021. So far this year, that number is already at 123,000.

“I think that we should be concentrating on all the people who are going around with out-of-state plates, with stolen license plates, with tinted windows that make everybody feel unsafe — especially our police officers,” Blakeman said. “And I really want to crack down because when we’ve done this in the past, we’ve been able to confiscate a lot of illegal license plates, we’ve gotten illegal weapons and controlled substances that we’ve confiscated.”

Nassau police also say they’ve taken nearly 800 guns off the road in the past two years.

“Those car stops are vital,” Ryder said, when it comes to “doing the investigation, asking the right questions when they interview the driver, and allowing us to get into that car.”

The commissioner also mentioned cracking down on uninspected an unregistered vehicles, which he added “90 percent of the time, they are also uninsured.”

Depending on the violation, a warning or a summons could be issued, and fines may be increased during the Operation Safe Streets initiative.

LIJ Medical Center is in the top 10% of hospitals nationally for oncology, according to U.S. News & World Report.

Our doctors are raising health by pioneering innovative approaches to cancer—from novel chemotherapy techniques to first-in-the-nation robotic mastectomies with minimal scarring.

Because when it comes to cancer, there’s no status quo. There’s only “how far can we go?”

Top businesspeople make a difference Nassau Council of Chamber of Commerce honors annual slate

By MICHAEL HINMAN mhinman@liherald.com

W

ant to really get involved with the community? That’s easy — join your local chamber of commerce.

“Chambers,” said Fran Camarano Jr. “We get involved in a nonprofit organization, support our communities and businesses. Why do we do this? Well, we’re part of the community, right?’

Camarano is quite active in the East Meadow Chamber of Commerce. But at the Crest Hollow Country Club in Woodbury on Oct. 28, Camarano was filling a different role — president of the Nassau Council of Chambers of Commerce. The group — which represents more than 40 chambers from across the county — gathered once again to honor its businesspersons of the year.

Those winners included Manny Alvarez, president of Kolstein’s in Baldwin, who continues to open the world of stringed instruments to so many musicians. And Sharon Davis-Edwards, founder and chief executive of S.J. Edwards Inc., in Merrick, who has provided financial and employee benefits services to businesses for more than 30 years. And Iyna Bort Caruso, who leads Sweet Lime Ink Content Studio, bringing her Emmy Award-winning writing and content creation work to Rockville Centre and beyond.

But it’s more than simply running a business, Camarano said. True success comes with being active in the community. Like Nicole Eliopoulos. She fulfilled her dream to run her own State Farm Insurance Agency in Valley Stream, yet she still finds time to not only raise four children with her husband, but stay active in their lives — from their school PTAs, to even coaching some of their sport teams.

“The idea of grassroots efforts from the ground up being the best way to support communities — and businesses supporting their communities — is the way to go,” Camarano said. “But the truth is, the commitment we make is not just to the chamber. What you want to do to support the businesses is to support each other.”

Other winners include Lauren Maslov, the third-generation owner of Pietro’s restaurant in East Meadow. Dale Davids, a home solar dealer — and Afghanistan veteran — in Elmont. Patricia McColley, a program manager for the community and population health team at Northwell Health out of Franklin Square. And Jorge Martinez, vice president of the J&A Group — which provides commercial maintenance out of Freeport.

Then there’s Luis Lopez, an immigrant from El Salvador who now runs Morgan Delicatessen in Glen Cove with his wife.

Steve Adler, who came out of retirement to take on marketing and sales for Servpro of Garden City and Hempstead.

And Christine Sweeney, branch manager and director for Webster Bank Levittown Banking Center.

She founded the Merrick company in 2005, and is known for building long-term relationships with many clients — all who appreciate her honesty, integrity, and quality of customer service.

“We don’t have clients,” DavisEdwards tells the Nassau Council of Chambers of Commerce, “we have friends.”

She’s had her work acknowledge by a number of organizations, and is in the Hall of Fame for the Top 50 Most Influential Women in Long Island. And all of that because she maintains a passion to help families and businesses prepare for — and protect — their financial future.

Leah Tozer might be known for her appearances on HGTV’s “Island Life,” but she remains one of Long Beach’s top real estate practitioners. Mike Govinda has helped companies grow their IT and health care services through his company, Arista Careers, while David Silva spends his day as a financial advisor for Janney,

FrANk CAMArANo Jr., president of the Nassau Council, says community service starts with the local chamber of commerce. And he practices what he preaches as a longtime leader of the East Meadow Chamber of Commerce. but then goes home and does everything from coach youth basketball, to helping shape young minds.

Denise Sclafani Daniels continues her family’s successful jewelry business in Lynbrook, while Dr. Evelyn Heredia has changed lives as the owner of Phoenix Family Chiropractic in Malverne. Victoria Van De Ven runs her own State Farm Insurance Agency in Seaford, while Margo Cargill focuses on corporate and government strategy through her Uniondale-based Titanium Linx Consulting, and Rosemarie DeMaio makes Wantagh smile as chief custom cookie designer at Mama’s Custom Cookies.

And businesses were winners as well — like Stellina Ristorante, run by renowned chef Fabrizio Facchini and the Milana family in Oyster Bay. “Nassau County is back, and we’re open for business,” County Executive Bruce Blakeman told the crowd at Crest Hollow. “Nassau County is committed to partnering with each and every one of the chambers so that every community can thrive, and every downtown business district can do well with no community left behind.”

On the move: Nassau BOCES welcomes new faculty member ductivity. In his work, he partnered with multiple advisors from the United Nations to improve the overall effectiveness of policing for the island nation.

John served as supervisor of youth services for the NYPD, where he led the department’s Explorer Program, coordinated field trips and volunteer opportunities, and prepared potential candidates for participation in national competitions. He holds both a master’s and bachelor’s degree in criminal justice from John Jay College, where he graduated as a Dean’s List Honoree.

“In my work as a police John officer, the emphasis was on efficient and positive interactions with the communities I served,” John said. “My dedication to the students of Nassau BOCES is much the same. I intend to use my experience in law enforcement as a resource for the agency and our students. My goal is to educate myself about GC Tech’s mission and goals, to make a positive impact on my students, and to help them become successful in whatever they choose to do.”

BELLMORE HERALD — November 10, 2022

Ceres John of Bellmore has joined the faculty at Nassau BOCES GC Tech as a Police Science and Criminal Justice teacher.

Andy Lockwood talks college costs On Wednesday, Nov. 2, Lockwood College Prep and Inside Herald LI presented an hour-long webinar for the community entitled “How to Cut College Costs by 52.2% or More” — produced by RichnerLIVE — which aids college-parents on the rollercoaster ride of putting their children through upper education and its costs.

Host, Judy Goss, host of AWE’s luxury real estate show ‘Behind the Gates,’ former NBC and Fox contributor and QVC host, gave her opening remarks as a collegemom of twins, “My kids just graduated high school in June and started college; so I’ve been through all the ups and downs and the stress and the financial issues — all of the roller coaster moves that we had to get to college finally this year,” she said.

“And I’m happy to say that I’m here with someone today that will make that process a lot easier and less complicated and that is Andy Lockwood.”

Andy Lockwood is a college admissions counselor along with his wife Pearl, as well as best-selling author of ‘How to Negotiate Your Crappy Financial Aid’ and ‘Merit Aid Offer’ as well as three other books in the works. Together, the duo are the masterminds behind Lockwood College Prep which provides you with the tools you may need to get into your dream school, and for less.

The two have four children themselves.

However Lockwood saw the need for better college advisors and prep from his own

experiences going through law school.

“I didn’t choose my career,” the top college advisor said. “It’s almost like it found me. I went to law school and ended with over a hundred thousand dollars of debt.

Because of this horrible experience of high fees and debt, which is actually nothing compared to today, I went into this career.”

Goss introduced Lockwood, who had just finished up a busy time of early applications and deadlines, and jumped right into questions which yielded helpful tips and vital information from Lockwood.

“If you have a younger kid, early decision and early action deadlines are something to look forward to.” owner of Lockwood College prep said and kicked off the webinar with a piece of advice. “Here’s a pro tip: get everything done over the summer. That is my first valuable tip tonight” Having guidance during the intricate process of the application process can make all the difference. As parents send their oldest children to college for the first time, oftentimes they are both figuring out what to do as you go along and the reality is that many things have changed over the years and you might not know everything that is involved.

“If you feel overwhelmed, it’s not your fault.” Lockwood said regarding the complicated financial formulas that are often hard to decipher, with pages upon pages of regulations. “The good news is that there are ways to level the playing field.”

Goss also asked questions such as get-

ting into and what it takes to be accepted into a top college as well as the rundown on how financial aid and scholarships work.

“I thought you just fill out the FAFSA form and pay as much as you can,” Goss remarked towards the end of the webinar.

“I’m happy to hear that there are actually ways you can strategize this.”

It was a highly informative session which ended with a live Q&A from the audience via chat. Followed by an endscreen with information on how to book sessions with Lockwood College Prep.

“Our approach isn’t for everyone,” Lockwood said. “The child needs to be coachable and the parents need to be willing to take advice.”

Following a busy morning at the Chabad Center for Jewish Life last Sunday, the chief rabbi of Israel, David Lau, met its members and offered some wisdom on issues facing the greater Jewish community.

Chabad for the day to check the writing in a mezuzah, a decorative case that contains another piece of parchment known as a klaf. A mezuzah is attached to the doorway of a Jewish home, and Chabad members were encouraged to bring theirs to be inspected by Kuperman.

Like tefillin, the text on the klaf should also be checked regularly by a sofer to make sure it is still kosher, Kuperman explained. A mezuzah is hung to show that the dwelling is a Jewish household that keeps to a special set of rules, rituals and beliefs.

“With the mezuzah, we dedicate to God everything that is in our house,” Kuperman said. “This brings out God’s blessing — the blessing of everything in life that we have.”

He said he was impressed by the number of attendees, and explained why and how often tefillin and mezuzahs should be checked. “They wear out,” he said.

“The letters, even if they were written properly, with time, can deteriorate, the parchment can deteriorate and the letters can crack and fade. Therefore it has to be inspected once every few years.”

Some in the crowd asked about the proper method of storage for tefillin and a mezuzah, and whether that could affect on the longevity of the text. Kuperman said he had seen scrolls stored in the tightest waterproof containers deteriorate, which is why he urged the attendees to make sure theirs are checked often.

The Chabad of Hewlett and the Chabad of Long Island had helped arrange a visit by Rabbi Lau on Sunday.

Kramer said that congregants were thankful that Lau was able to take some time out of his day to meet them, and to offer some thoughts about issues facing Jews around the world.

Lau, like Kuperman, said he was impressed by the size of the audience, and commended people for bringing their children to Hebrew School, which also meets on Sunday mornings at the Chabad Center. After greeting the gathering, Lau made time to meet with the Chabad’s students, and answer their questions.

“I am very happy to see you here — I am very happy to hear the children,” Lau said. “I am sure that because you find the time and that you take your children to learn (about) the Jewish nation, the language of the Jewish nation, they will continue to bless you.”

Some Chabad members asked Lau what they could do to help Israel, and how they could battle the surge of antisemitism at home and in the media. He urged them to continue educating students and their children, and to take them to Israel to experience the culture and holiness of the country.

On the matter of antisemitism, Lau shared some wisdom he had recently imparted to religious leaders from around the world — including Pope Francis and prominent figures in Islam — at a meeting he attended in Kazakhstan.

“We are very quick to speak on each other,” he said, “that we forget to speak with each other. You can speak with people that don’t understand — and this is a way to help us.”

Rascals Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Famers are always in style

By Mary Malloy ock legends The Rascals are back on WHERE stage for the first time in four years.

Their Time Peace Tour 2022 rolls on WHEN — with a stop at NYCB Theatre at Westbury on Nov. 13 — featuring two • Sunday, Nov. 13, 7:30 p.m. of the group’s legendary original members: Felix • NYCB Theatre at Westbury, Cavaliere and Gene Cornish.

960 Brush Hollow Road, Westbury The group (formerly The Young Rascals) is best • For tickets, visit known for their string of smash hits during the TheTheatreAtWestbury.com, mid-to-late 1960s, including “Groovin,” “Good LiveNation.com, or call (516) Lovin’,” “A Beautiful Morning” and “People Got 247-5200 to Be Free.” (The tour is named after their 1968 Greatest Hits album.)

The Rascals were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1997.

“It’s been a while since I’ve been in New York because of Covid, but I travel here a lot to see friends and family,” says Cavaliere, the group’s keyboardist, vocalist and songwriter. “We’ve been in the area doing some private shows. Westbury is one of the last few places with a theater in the round. I’m happy that our music appeals to more than one generation. It’s a real treat seeing the some of the younger faces out there in the audience.”

Trained as a classical pianist at a young age — and fully intending to go into the medical field — Cavaliere formed a band called The Escorts during his college years at Syracuse University. That led him to play with Joey Dee & The Starliters (“The Peppermint Twist”) where he met Cornish and Eddie Brigati. The threesome eventually left to form The Young Rascals with jazz drummer Dino Danelli.

After a few months doing the New York club scene, Cavaliere and his bandmates caught the attention of promoter/manager Sid Bernstein with their high-energy set at Long Island’s elite club, The Barge on Shinnecock Bay in East Quogue. They soon signed a contract with Atlantic Records.

After topping the charts with hit after hit — and selling more than 30 million records worldwide — The Young Rascals disbanded in 1972, and the members went on to have successful solo careers. Cavaliere now calls Nashville, Tennessee, home, where he is collaborating and prolifically writing new material.

“This (tour) gives us another chance to play together,” Cornish adds, “and do it for the fans.”

A treat: Special guests Vanilla Fudge Vanilla Fudge, best known for their extended heavy rock arrangements including “You Keep Me Hangin’ On” and “Season of the Witch,” join The Rascals as special musical guests.

Vanilla Fudge has been cited as “one of the few American links between psychedelia and what soon became heavy metal.” The group is also known to have influenced other major bands such as The Nice, Deep Purple, Yes, Styx and Led Zeppelin.

“We’re excited to come back to Westbury,” says the band’s award-winning drummer, vocalist and songwriter Carmine Appice, who now resides in Florida. “It’s one of my favorite venues. We’ll include a lot of our popular hits, and I’ll probably do a drum solo.

The Rascals were like our mentors, and we’ve been friends for many years.”

The band is currently touring with three of its four original members: Appice, Mark Stein, Vince Martell, and Pete Bremy (who took over for Tim Bogert, who retired in 2009 and died 2021.)

‘Fiddler on the Roof’

Bartlett Sher and the team behind ‘South Pacific,’ ‘The King and I’ and 2017 Tony-winning Best Play ‘Oslo,’ bring a fresh and authentic vision to this beloved theatrical masterpiece. Featuring a talented cast, lavish orchestra, and stunning movement and dance from Israeli choreographer Hofesh Shechter, based on the original staging by Jerome Robbins, this production is an uplifting celebration that raises its cup to joy — to love — to life. Rich with musical hits everyone knows and loves, including ‘Tradition,’ ‘Sunrise, Sunset’ and ‘To Life (L’Chaim!),’ this heartwarming story never goes out of style.

Friday, Nov. 11, 8 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 12, 2 and 8 p.m. $89, $69, $59, $49. Tilles Center for the Performing Arts, C.W. Post Campus, Route 25A, Brookville.

Toubab Krewe

Vanilla Fudge, special guest, is known for their extended rock versions of contemporary hit songs. Pictured from left are Carmine Appice (drums), Mark Stein (keyboard), Vinny Martell (guitar), and Pete Bremy (bass).

Some music defies categorization.

Such is the case with Toubab Krewe, the vibrant North Carolinabased instrumental powerhouse that lustily swirls together rock, African traditions, jam sensibilities, international folk strains and more.

This is a band that actively draws inspiration from whatever source floats into their purview, something they’ve exhibited in their half decade of heavy gigging — including regular appearances at major U.S. festivals like Bonnaroo, High Sierra, Rothbury and Wakarusa — and abroad at such legendary gatherings as Festival In The Desert in Mali.

Their globe-hopping propensity has made them an emerging headliner at their hometown’s famous Orange Peel, and a familiar face at similar venues nationwide. Whether on their own or collaborating with luminaries like the Last Poets’ Umar Bin Hassan or Uncle Earl’s Rayna Gellert, Toubab Krewe has already earned the attention and respect of a broad musical community.

Saturday, Nov. 12, 8 p.m. $38, $33, $28. Jeanne Rimsky Theater at Landmark on Main Street, 232 Main St., Port Washington. (516) 767-6444 or LandmarkOnMainStreet.org.

Exit & Succession Planning for Business Owners

By AlexA AnderwkAvich On Thursday, Nov. 3, law firm Vishnick McGovern Milizio LLP and The NYBB Group held a free live webinar featuring Joseph G. Milizio, managing partner at Vishnick, McGovern and Milizio and Anthony Citrolo, founder of NYBB Group — a premium service merger and acquisition business sales firm — with Herald Inside LI host Michael Hinman, executive editor at Herald Community Newspapers.

“No one likes to think too much about the future, especially about their business,” Hinman said. “But in the next hour we will find out why planning ahead is crucial!”

Citrolo’s clients include privately held companies and family owned businesses and is CPA and a Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA). Vishnick McGovern Milizio LLP has been named Best Law Firms in America by US News and World Report for 2022 and 2023.

Hinman jumped right into their expertise with a few questions, starting with the basics: when is the best time to start planning?

“The best time to start planning is the moment a client walks into my office and says I have a concept I would like to start a new business,” Milizio said.

He explained that if you plan from the

Determining the value of your business is an important part of the planning and succession process. There are also a number of steps that a business owner

can do to increase the value of their company.

Citrolo went on to define “value acceleration” and how it plays into the process of exit planning.

“If you are really planning your business properly and want to make sure your business has a value of x and you’re willing to do whatever it takes to make that happen,” Citrolo said. “You can do things to essentially grow that business and accelerate the value.”

For example when you need management and hire a team that increases your value, as well as spreading the customer base and even customer contracts which increase value because the customer has staying power. This plus a number of HR and legal issues that need to be dealt with all in time, increase the value of your business.

“Your business is evaluated by value drivers which either increase or decrease the value and you can see what you can do to enhance the value,” Citrolo said.

The webinar included vital information for business owners that could make a difference in the future. Making sure you are building your business efficiently can be done when you have the proper tools and guidance.

Finding the perfect pumpkin in Reinhard’s patch

s

tudents at Charles A. Reinhard Early Childhood Center in the Bellmore Public School District recently celebrated the season by choosing the perfect pumpkin in the patch to take home and decorate.

The school’s courtyard was filled with a variety of pumpkins for students to select.

All classes attended, and children picked a pumpkin, estimated its weight and then weighed it.

They also guessed how many candy corns were in a bag and gathered for class photos.

The annual Pumpkin Patch is sponsored by the PTA at Reinhard.

School Daze with Talya Lippman

W

hat makes a good teacher?

To figure that out, there are really only three viewpoints on this matter: those of the teachers, those of the students, and hard core facts.

Let’s delve into the inner thoughts of a current history high school teacher. Specifically, from the perspective of a Hofstra man who progressively developed his teaching skills. Dr. Singer is the epitome of what my teacher believes to be a balanced and effective teacher. My teacher eagerly picked up the techniques and teaching strategies from his mentors that he continues to use today. He is a strong advocate of making every lesson exciting and a surprise for the students.

Constructing each lesson to be in a new technique every day naturally increases excitement. In addition, the tactic of teaching it once the right way and never again is crucial. Teaching shouldn’t be drawn out or repeated endlessly without alya much engagement or progress shown on the students part. As my teacher often says, “Make learning fun because it can be.”

An essential component of teaching is attending to the needs of the students. Teacher experience should include more than just classroom instruction — it should also include the application to real-world situations, if possible. In particular, history is relevant and conveniently all around you.

Attending a local museum or walking around cultural areas are ways to expand the learning beyond the walls of school.

The student teaching method is a system to shape new teachers. It is a process in which a teacher in training shadows and observes a superior teacher for a significant amount of time. The teacher in training will formulate the new lessons, create tests, and assist the teacher in any way needed. Most importantly, they will establish relationships and connect with the students. In this way, the new educators acquired their knowledge from principled teachers and can gradually take over as a main educator.

Next up, the statistics and facts no one can ignore. According to a Southern New Hampshire University study, communication, versatility, compassion, and patience are some attributes of a good teacher. A captivating classroom presence, emphasis on real-world learning, sharing of guiding principles, and a lifetime love of learning are

T

further traits of excellent teaching.

Great communication should not stop when the teacher is done talking.

In education, working alone truly does not exist. Working as a teacher frequently entails efficiently cooperating with others in a group, from paraprofessionals to other classroom instructors and school administrators.

Maintaining an open mind and learning from other educators is crucial.

Effective instructors must be able to adapt their teaching strategies to the ages of their students, the resources at their disposal, and changing curriculum. Being capable of engaging students with humor, imaginative lessons, and a confident presence in the classroom are all key components. Treating each child as an individual, showing empathy and understanding is yet another way to engage and enhance learning.

The commitment to lifelong learning and the passion for teaching must be an instilled quality for all teachers.

Finally, the view of the ippman customer, or in this case, the student — who is of course always right. In my opinion, teachers should be educators who are intelligent men and women. In a class lesson, information should be presented in a straightforward manner that requires little thought, and of course, a student should be expected to pay attention and contribute their own ideas to the teachings in order to follow along, but the content should not be made any more difficult than necessary.

It should simply be a fun to learn!

This may seem unachievable to some, but is in fact possible with the right teacher. Every high school student can attest that their high school experience completely, or at least partially damaged their ability and yearning to learn. Teachers should be able to enthusiastically and readily engage their students. Ideally, every teacher should be a master in their field. No matter the subject, the teacher shouldn’t stumble on their words, sound unsure, or skeptical of what they are saying.

A teacher should be able to exude confidence in their lesson and in response, I should be effortlessly compelled to listen.

WE GET YOUR SEWER AND DRAINS FLOWING AGAIN

ALFREDO’S CONSTRUCTION

Q. A building inspector noticed our air conditioning units while inspecting our deck, and said we need to file for a permit for it. He said it’s a simple permit, and an architect would know what to do. Our house was damaged by Hurricane Sandy. We have been through a lot, so we just want to get this last thing done. Can you explain what is needed?

A. After you started with permits for Sandy repair, which led to a permit for your deck, then electrical and plumbing permits, I suspect you thought you were done, but noooo! This has been a common issue in your municipality. They require a design professional, and the average person immediately sees dollar signs and gets nervous. onte eeper Your building inspector made it sound simple, and from an inspector’s point of view, at the end of the process, it is simple, but getting there is a little more complicated. While doing second floors and rear additions, one stumbling block to final sign-off includes things as minor as an air conditioning unit. The drawing of plans, retrieving the specification manual from the manufacturer to show energy use, sound output and safety testing make the task not so simple. Most people lose or throw away their manuals. Then, because you’re in a flood zone, you must have an elevation certificate and survey from a surveyor (another expense).

So it really isn’t so simple.

Then there are the construction drawings for the raised A.C. units to be above potential floodwaters.

I’ve seen many truly inventive ways to elevate the condenser unit, from stacked wooden crate towers to mini-deck platforms to concrete pedestals covered in decorative stone. We actually have to document the way they were constructed, which isn’t always so easy because the building code addresses only conventional construction, not artistic sculptures that look like someone has set up an air conditioning altar. The construction, no matter what it’s made of, has to have conventional anchorage, some kind of realistic foundation that the architect or engineer has to state is strong enough to resist being carried away in a flood, and that won’t accelerate the floodwaters to neighboring properties when water smacks up against it.

Another problem has been the progression of information, over time, about what design professionals have to note on the plans. Because the communication, shared with the property owner, is on an internet portal, when the examiner sends back a message about “demonstrating compliance with Section X” of the building codes, the client is left to wonder whether their professional really knows what they’re doing, since they apparently can’t even draw an air conditioning unit. Belittling the professional has made many architects and engineers choose not to do these A.C. unit plans. It would be much more helpful if communications included specifics, like an information sheet on standardized required notes, an explanation like the one I just gave, and acceptable anchorage and design heights to simplify the process. Good luck!

opINIoNS

he Federal Aviation Administration has just closed the comment period for the flying public regarding the size of airline passenger

seats.

They were focused on the wrong seats.

The FAA should have been looking at airplane loos. In-flight restrooms have become so small and cramped that they should be equipped with shoehorns.

In 1986, Congress passed legislation requiring the Department of Transportation to create and enforce regulations ensurRoNALD J. ing that people disabilities RoSENBERG with were treated without discrimination in a manner consistent with the safe operation of aircraft and trains. A key part of that task was to make sure airliners had restrooms that were large enough to accommodate disabled passengers.

There was a significant caveat, however. The rules focused only on wide-body aircraft. There was an assumption that the larger the aircraft, the longer the flights, the more pressing the need for facilities. This sly “carve-out” in aircraft standards meant that airlines suffered a

L

far smaller economic penalty by giving up several seats in order to make room for the wider restrooms. Single-aisle aircraft that carried fewer passengers and flew shorter routes were exempted from the regulation.

And now, in an era when jumbo jets like the 747 are being retired and smaller, more fuel-efficient, narrowbody jets are making a comeback, those restrooms can still be smaller than a phone booth. (Does anyone remember phone booths?)

One airline industry survey reported that narrow-body lavatories are often as much as 10 inches narrower than they were a decade ago.

The current generation of non-jumbos is so aerodynamically efficient that they can fly the same long-distance routes as 747s. These narrow-body aircraft are capable of international flights of thousands of miles. In the pursuit of efficiency, even many cockpit crews have been reduced, from three to two. Everything is now designed to be far more cost-effective for airlines facing woes ranging from staff shortages to soaring energy costs. That means using every inch of aircraft real estate. And that in turn has meant removing precious inches from the restrooms.

For those with special needs, this often

A

means not being able to go while going overseas. The issue has not gone unnoticed. One cabin-design firm called AirGo has proposed a unique triangular-shaped airline lavatory. The company claims that it gives passengers who have reduced mobility the ability to wheel in and safely shift from wheelchair to toilet.

Refusing to accept the status quo, disabled passengers filed suit several years ago, demanding that narrow-body aircraft be mandated to have restrooms they could access, and new federal rules will require at least one larger restroom per aircraft to accommodate them. The airlines aren’t happy, because in this era of Covid recovery, they claim the mandate has the potential to cost them billions of dollars in revenue as they remove seats to make room for the wider privy. In the meantime, fewer than 5 percent of U.S. commercial carriers’ narrow-body passenger aircraft have restrooms large enough to be accessible to people who need to use wheelchairs on board, according to Washington’s Government Accountability Office.

While the FAA requested public input on airline seats, the agency made it a point to say they’re not interested in whether you find current cabin accommo-

irlines show little concern for the comfort of those with special needs.

dations comfortable. They only wanted to hear about safety factors. “The FAA is not requesting comments regarding matters … such as how the dimensions of passenger seats might relate to passenger comfort or convenience,” the agency stated.

We can assume they believe the free market will define “comfort.”

An industry expert, Sebastien Weber, chief executive of Safran Aerosystems, told the Wall Street Journal several years ago, “On airplanes, it is all about how you use the real estate.” He should know. His California company builds toilets for aircraft.

It is a now cliché to lament the longlost golden days of aviation, when men arrived planeside in suits and fedoras and women were dressed to the nines. Today it’s cargo shorts and muscle shirts, and passengers who wear jackets and ties are viewed with smirks as flight attendants remind us that there is an extra charge for barely edible snacks. So we shouldn’t be surprised that airline restrooms are shrinking, our seats and amenities are considered commodities, and we are left to wonder if there will be room to go when we have to go.

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.

Need a boost? Celebrate your micro-joys

ast week I wrote about the midterm elections, which may or may not be resolved by the time you read this. I acknowledged the stress many of us are feeling as democracy-as-we-know-it seems to be faltering. I suggested taking a galactic approach, finding comfort in our relative insignificance in the universe. After all, we are so small, and on the grand scales of time and space, politics is inconsequential.

How did that work for you? It worked for me for a while, along with deep breathing, and stepping up a self-care routine to RANDI battle the political KREISS blues. I stopped watching TV news.

I turned off news notifications on my phone, and I chose not to read the new dystopian novel by Celeste Ng, which I am sure is fine and literary, but not for me, not right now.

This is the drumbeat we hear: ■ Facts don’t matter to many Americans.

■ Racism is on the rise.

■ Unqualified candidates enjoy widespread support.

■ Climate change is close to becoming irremediable.

■ A recession is looming.

■ Covid may surge this winter.

■ Former President Donald Trump may run again, or may be indicted. Or he may run and be indicted.

I

had baked earlier in the week, toasted it, and found some raspberry preserves for a micro-boost.

I did not turn on the news.

Some days it is challenging to fine the joy, but there is no acceptable option.

I call my grandkids every few days. Sometimes they have time to talk and it’s a good moment. Sometimes they reach out to me with a video of themselves skateboarding or a good grade alert or a bit of gossip about their friends. It all counts in the plus column.

I started watching “White Lotus,” a new series on HBO Max. It’s funny — horribly, darkly funny. It may not work for you, but the characters, especially the teenagers, are so exaggerated (I hope) that it is a fine distraction.

I watched President Obama’s stump speech in Arizona — twice, because his intelligence and humor and passion for democracy are so heartening.

Another day, I called some old friends.

We all do our best to keep in touch, but often, too much time goes by. So I called, and we chatted and had a laugh and consoled one another, and it was another micro-joy.

urge all of us to find the tiny moments that lift the spirit and give our lives meaning.

There are just so many times we can hear these messages and maintain our equilibrium.

So this week I’m moving from the galactic view to the micro view, and urging all of us to find the tiny moments and joys that lift the spirit and give meaning to our lives. The bad stuff looms large and threatens to block out the sun, but the micro-joys are here, and there was never a greater need.

Just this morning, before sitting down to write, I took a walk. I took in the smell of the air and the ripple of leaves. I continued listening to Jon Meacham’s “Thomas Jefferson: The Art of Power,” because it reminds me that democracy has always been fragile and precious.

I savored my coffee, a robust Cuban blend that tastes delicious and is a terrific eye-opener. I sliced a piece of cornbread I

Like everyone else I know, I do Wordle and Spelling Bee every day in The New York Times. It has become a ritual and a micro-obsession as well as a joy. I think it’s the fun of chalking up a small win and feeling the ping of success, even though it’s just a word game. Wins are hard to come by.

Maybe you have a card game or a board game that can pull your time and attention into focus for an hour or two.

Part of caring for ourselves is finding like-minded friends to enjoy a common experience. A game, a lecture, a bike ride, a meal out — anything to break out of the device-driven isolation zone.

Memories count. One of my best micro-joys this week was looking through some old, and I mean old, photo albums.

How dazzling were those family times, especially from this distance!

I rolled on the floor with Lillybee the dog.

We must find these joyful moments. We must do it with intention and focus and limited expectations. Want to share with me what micro-joys you have found to lift you up?

We do this to keep ourselves strong and renewed for whatever these strange times bring our way.

Honor the men, women of the armed forces

t

here are just two federal holidays each year acknowledging — and thanking — the brave men and women of the U.S. armed forces for their service to our country. They have endured intensive training, harsh conditions and treacherous battlefields on which they have fought for our freedom and protected us from foreign dictators and tyrannical empires overseas.

Memorial Day gives us a chance to remember those we lost. But Veterans Day — which we observe on Friday — honors those who are still with us.

Veterans Day traces its roots back more than 100 years, to the conclusion of World War I. Considered the deadliest and most violent conflict in history to that point, it resulted in nearly 40 million military and civilian casualties.

In the 11th hour of Nov. 11, 1918, a ceasefire accord brought an end to four years of bloodshed. Armistice Day — as it is still known in other parts of the globe — was celebrated in honor of those who fought in the trenches on the Western Front.

Unfortunately, by the time it was acknowledged as an official U.S. holiday in 1938, the world was once again on the brink of a global conflict. World War II’s ferocity far exceeded that of its predecessor, including millions of innocent lives lost in the Holocaust, and culminated with the first — and only — use of the atomic bomb during wartime on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

The very first Veterans Day is said to

letters Where there’s need, there’s no room for politics To the Editor: I, for one, am glad that this election season is over. The vitriol, accusations and character assassination by both parties became unbearable. Common ground and common decency were in short supply. I am almost certain that political discourse in our country will continue to take the low road even after all the votes have been tallied.

One of the things I noticed was how the political ads that peppered the evening newscasts left out one crucial segment of our society. In the months leading up to the election, I never saw, or heard, a single ad, by either party, that mentioned the poor and marginalized. There were lots of ads aimed at those of us in the middle class. One could surmise from these ads that we

have taken place in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1947, when World War II veteran Raymond Weeks organized a celebration to honor all those who served in the Atlantic and Pacific theaters of the war. In 1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed a law proclaiming that Armistice Day would henceforth be known as Veterans Day. Today the holiday celebrates all who have served. But despite government assistance through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and programs like the GI Bill, many veterans continue to struggle to readjust to civilian life, facing the challenges of securing education, employment, food and housing.

While many returned home to celebrations and commendations, Americans became more cynical during and after the war in Vietnam. More and more returning veterans were met with hatred and disgust or, at best, were simply ignored, which posed a new set of hurdles, with many suffering from drug addiction, PTSD, suicidal urges and other mental health issues, as well as the lasting effects of exposure to Agent Orange.

Many of those problems remain prevalent among military personnel coming back from more recent conflicts, like those in Iraq and Afghanistan.

This is why Veterans Day is more important than it has ever been. And it necessitates more from us than simply thanking and helping a veteran, though any effort — no matter how small — is appreciated.

Volunteer at a VA hospital. You don’t have to have any medical expertise to help.

You can even give a lift to those without the means to get around. Visit Volunteer. va.gov to learn more. Volunteer for the American Red Cross, which has been lending a hand to those returning from war since World War I. Help veterans find work. Hire Heroes USA is a nonprofit organization assisting veterans, active-duty military and their spouses obtain employment with career counseling and advice. Go to HireHeroesUSA.org.

Send a letter, or help veterans write home. This is probably the simplest of all ways to show your support. Operation Gratitude — at OperationGratitude.com — delivers letters, cards and care packages to veterans and military personnel, letting them know they are appreciated. And Operation Write Home provides blank handmade greeting cards to active-duty service members to send messages back to their loved ones. Visit them at SandyAllnock.com/OperationWriteHome.

Give back at the grass-roots level. You can show your support for local veterans in your community by donating to, and volunteering for, the American Legion or Veterans of Foreign War post nearest you.

Veterans deserve our appreciation for protecting and ensuring our cherished way of life. They deserve our thanks not just one day a year, but every day— and on Friday we should be especially united in that gratitude.

opinions

hen I was in high school in the Bronx in the 1960s, they didn’t let us use calculators on tests. They hadn’t invented them yet.

I actually learned math in middle school, when my friends and I calculated baseball batting averages and pitchers’ earned run averages. In those days, newspapers only published the stats for the league leaders, so we did the calculations for everyone else on the Yankees and Mets.

Today, when you watch a game on aLan TV, all sorts of statistics that I never sinGer heard of as a kid are recalculated instantaneously.

Likewise, kids today have devices with unimaginable computational power and speed. They just punch in the numbers. As an aging dinosaur, I like to balance my checkbook without help to keep my mind sharp, but some days I don’t bother, and I let Excel work the numbers.

I’ve used algebra and geometry for different projects, but I probably could have gotten by in life with very rudimentary math skills. I haven’t used trigonometry or calculus since I left high school.

So why do kids need to study math?

This is an important question, because the latest report from the National Assessment of Educational Progress shows that as a result of pandemic-related school interruptions, fourth- and eight-graders’ math scores in standardized tests fell in nearly every state and demographic group, and in some states they fell precipitously. Only 36 percent of fourth-graders and 26 percent of eighth-graders were rated proficient in math. In New York, the scores were significantly worse for fourthgraders, with only 28 percent of students rated proficient, and slightly better than the national average for eighth-graders. These were the lowest percentages for New York students since the federal testing started in 1998.

More vulnerable students dropped even further behind their peers. A survey included with the test found that only half of low-performing fourth-graders had regular access to computers during the 2020-21 school year, and a third reported that they didn’t have a quiet place to do school work. Black and Latino students, who already scored lower than white and Asian students on previous exams, experienced the sharpest Covid-related declines. The test results and survey hint that in the near future,

i

we may see a sharp increase in high school dropouts and a greater opportunity gap.

Reading scores also declined, but it’s easier for students to bounce back when it comes to reading performance. Math is sequential, so if students don’t learn the basics, they can’t perform increasingly complex operations. During the 2021-22 school year, the federal government provided over $120 billion, about $2,400 per student, to address the Covid decline, but federal funding for remediation expires in 2024, and a highly partisan Congress may not allocate the billions more dollars that are still needed.

But again, why do kids need to study math if technology can do the calculations for us?

In New York state, Mathematics Learning Standards stress that the goal is for students to be able to make sense of problems and persevere in solving them; to reason abstractly and quantitatively; to construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others; and to model with mathematics. Computational skills, also called numeracy, are important because to do these things, students have to be comfortable with numbers and be able to “read” math.

But broader “thinking skills” that

are over-taxed pawns of the wealthy, or in danger of losing our freedoms. I suppose all of these could be true to some extent. But by ignoring those who struggle most in our society, we have shown the futility that many of us feel with our current political climate.

As a pastor, I am called to minister to those whom Jesus called “the least of his brothers and sisters.” This can be exhilarating, but at the same time frustrating, work. I am also treasurer of the Long Island Council of Churches, which maintains the Freeport Food Pantry. More than once in the past year, we have nearly had to shut our doors for a few days because of a lack of food — that’s the frustrating part.

The exhilaration comes when I see hungry families leave the pantry with full shopping carts to sustain them for a few days. There shouldn’t be food pantries in a nation as wealthy as ours, but that’s the reality that we live with in this time.

My other exhilaration is that I serve in a mission-oriented church. We also support local Head Start programs and migrant farm workers and their families on the east end of Long Island. Yes, our efforts are only stopgap measures. But when our politicians have failed us, they are a necessity.

I never ask any of my congregants, or the folks who bring food to our food drives, if they are Democrat or Republican, conservative or liberal. I just give thanks to God that amid all the hostility of our current political climate, there are folks who remember those who are often forgotten, or whom we might wish to forget.

transfer to other areas of school and life are most important. Studying math, besides learning how to calculate, students learn to think logically, how to identify and state a problem clearly, how to plan, how to decide on appropriate strategies to find solutions to a problem, and how to reach conclusions based on evidence — in this case, numbers. And math helps us keep score even when calculators are unavailable. With math we measure money, time and distance. We use it when cooking, balancing a checkbook, determining whether a bill is correct or planning home improvements.

Some people are probably better off when kids can’t do math. It’s easier to cheat them. You can pay them less and bill them more. They can’t understand why climate change and rising sea levels are such a threat, or why Republican claims that the 2020 election was stolen are ridiculous. That only makes it clearer that, if the problem persists, the lives of those kids, and our society as a whole, will be much worse off.
