Boxing trainer finds his calling

Michael Corleone works with disabled fighters

By MiCHaEl MalaSZCZYK mmalaszczyk@liherald.com

When former professional fighter Michael Corleone hung up the gloves to become a trainer, he had no idea that “miracle work” would be his calling when he trained disabled fighters.

Corleone, who is from Franklin Square, opened his gym, Kayo Boxing, in 2004.

The gym first operated at Gold’s Gym, and then in Synergy, both in Garden City

Park. Kayo Boxing moved to its current venue in West Hempstead in 2018, and has remained there ever since.

Corleone and a dedicated team of USA Boxing-certified coaches teach boxing, kickboxing and Muay Thai, and the rigorous fitness training that accompanies these martial arts.

Corleone had a long and illustrious career as a fighter.

His first fight was a kickboxing match in Puerto Rico in 1992 against National Puerto

Rican champion Roberto Mercedes. Corleone knocked Mercedes out in the sixth round.

Corleone went on to compete in both boxing and kickboxing, fighting on the undercards of events featuring big names like George Foreman and Michael Grant.

H e e ve n s h a r e d t h e squared circle once with Mikkel Kessler, considered to be an all-time great super middleweight, and gave Kessler a tough match.

Trainer does ‘miracle work’ in W. Hempstead In addition, Corleone was a sparring partner for legendary boxers such as Arturo Gatti and Hector “Macho” Camacho. Corleone won countless titles in both sports, with his biggest achievement being the International Boxing Organization junior welterweight champion of the world.

“I was never an easy fight for anyone,” Corleone said. “Anybody who faced me could tell you that.”

He retired from boxing in 2008 and became a full time trainer. He has mentored numerous amateur and professional boxers since then, but in recent years, his passion has led him to train disabled fighters.

One of those he trained was Lorenzo Thomas, who lives in Suffolk County.

Thomas was struck in the head by a stray bullet in 2013. He survived, but many of his motor functions were affected, and he had to learn once again how to walk.

In 2019, Thomas, searching for boxing gyms on Long Island, discovered Kayo Boxing and began training with Corleone.

While Corleone was reluctant at first, not wanting to make any promises, training Thomas became what he describes as his calling.

“A lot of people with brain injuries somewhat recover, but then it gets stagnant,” Corleone said. “They plateau. But boxing activates every muscle in your body, and it makes improvements.”

After Thomas’ story of training was featured on ESPN, Corleone began training more disabled fighters, such as Dono-

Michael corleone, left, with Donovan Maldonado, center, and Maldonado’s father, Matt. Maldonado suffered a traumatic brain injury but has improved thanks to Corleone’s boxing training. van Maldonado, who was hit by a car in 2016. Like Thomas, Maldonado suffered a traumatic brain injury. His motor functions were damaged as well, and at one point he was legally blind. Maldonado’s father, Matt, saw Thomas’ story on ESPN. “We saw ESPN’s Instagram post with Lorenzo, and we noticed that he walks exactly like Donnie,” Matt Maldonado said of his son. “And we figured this has to be in California, probably. But then we saw it was in Nassau County. We live in Brentwood. I asked Donnie if he wanted

to try this out, and it was an instant ‘yes.’”

When Donovan Maldonado first arrived at Kayo Boxing, he had trouble walking on his own, his father said. Now he sprints into the gym when it’s training time, can box standing completely on his own, and even do pushups without any help.

“He had trouble walking and had tremors on the right side of his body,” his father said. “Now he can throw a great right cross and a great left hook, too.”

Maldonado has made great strides

training with Corleone, and his father said that he no longer takes any medication -- only vitamins. Matt Maldonado said he is very grateful to Corleone for the work he does with his son.

“This is a workout from the crown of the head to the soles of the feet,” the father said. “It’s a blessing to have Mike.

Twenty or 30 years ago, when someone got an injury like this, they’d be medicated and put in a facility. Now my son is here learning to box.”

Some days are better than others, and Maldonado said his son sometimes would rather stay in bed than train.

“I know that feeling myself,” Corleone said, “of wanting to stay in bed. But that’s what fighting is all about -- pushing yourself to the limits. And Donnie and all the other guys I work with show a true fighter’s heart.”

Corleone trains a number of other disabled fighters at Kayo Boxing, all making progress at various levels. Corleone said he plans to continue doing this miracle work.

“When I first started fighting in the ‘90s, of course I wanted to be the next great junior welterweight,” Corleone said.

“But God had other plans for me. Training these guys and seeing their progress is worth more than any amount of money in the world. My father told me that, ‘If you love what you do, you’ll never have to work.’ I’ve been in business for almost 20 years, and I haven’t worked a hard day yet.”

Students learn how to manage their money continued froM front page properly.”

While the schools do their best to focus on financial literacy, Carroll said businesses must do their part to help out.

“We live in a world today with limited resources and many other challenges,” he said. “I think the schools really do the best they can, but I think it’s incumbent on the financial professionals and financial firms in the community to step up and do more.”

The Sewanhaka Central High School District is the first district on Long Island to implement a financial literacy requirement, after implementing a mandate last year that will soon go into effect requiring students to take a financial literacy class in order to graduate.

“Many of our students are in personal finance classes, and we offer a lot of it in college prep where they go over the FAFSA (federal student financial aid) forms, college applications, grants and loans,” said Jen Lehmann, district coordinator for business and technology. “It’s really difficult, but our personal finance teachers do a great job with that and with all the financial literacy that we give our students. They really are prepared for what’s out there.”

Scott Greene, administrative assistant to the district’s superintendent, added

that educating students on finances as they prepare for college would help as they move to the next level in life.

“This is the age where every financial institution is offering free credit cards for them to start building up their credit,” Greene said. “Some take it as a credit opportunity to start building, and some abuse it. That’s where the kids need to learn how abusing it is going to affect them.”

One of the key messages given during the presentation was that any student could get involved in the financial world.

“For too many years, Wall Street has been a white, male-dominated industry,” said Carroll. “I wanted them to know that women, people of color, and everyone has an opportunity.”

Among those in attendance was Neil Smith, UBS east divisional client relationship manager and former general manager of both the Islanders and the Rangers.

Smith, who enjoyed a successful front office career in the NHL, which included winning the Stanley Cup, said he felt that encouraging the youth to be smart with their finances was a message he needed to spread based on his upbringing.

“I didn’t have any money until I was later in life, until I got more successful, but I think the best advice you can get is to try to have your own self-budget and

Sewanhaka central high School District students had a blast learning from finance experts and preparing for their future. self-restraint,” Smith said. “Sometimes money can get the best of you. If, in fact, you can put in the effort, put in the time and the resources to educate young people on financial literacy, chances are they

(will) get to a point where they want to invest money, or they want to have a financial adviser.”

Penning a way to understand democracy The American Association of University Women North Shore Branch, Central Nassau County Rotary Club and the Franklin Square and Elmont public libraries are sponsoring a writing contest entitled “Democracy & Me” to encourage young, local students to better understand American democracy.

Joan Glasner, a contest organizer and member of the AAUW North Shore Branch, said the creative writing contest began in 2016 and this is the organization’s fifth year after a two-year hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

“Our ulterior motive is to get the kids to realize what’s going on in the country,” Glasner said. “We really hope they are going to learn something more about how government works and how important democracy is, and how life might be different for them if they didn’t live in a democracy.”

In an original essay, poem, speech or writing form of their choice, participants ages 11 to 13 may choose from a variety of topics, such as why it is important for everyone to vote, what would happen if their rights were taken away or what can they do to help the country’s democracy.

Applications are available at the libraries. Franklin Square library is at 19 Lincoln Road In Franklin Square and Elmont is at 700 Hempstead Tpke., in

Elmont. Local schools are also providing forms to students as well, Glasner said.

Signed applications must be submitted to either library by Oct. 7 and the deadline for final entries is Nov. 9. Entries must be typed and no longer than 400 words. Upon submitting an application, students receive a complimentary book called “Civics: Democracy Rules,” which they can use in their research.

The American Association of University Women’s North Shore Branch will evaluate all entries and look for key elements such as originality, focus on the topic and proper grammar. First, second, and third place winners will be announced at an award ceremony on Dec. 14 at the Elmont Memorial Library theater.

“At that ceremony, every participant will be given a certificate of participation and the winning entries will be read out loud by the child,” Glasner said. “Speeches are given, videos are shown, kids are all excited, refreshments are served — it’s a big culmination event.”

Glasner credited the New York State American Association of University Women for providing a grant for the contest, as well as the Central Nassau County Rotary Club for their financial contribution.

The Franklin Square library produced the flyers, promoted the event on social media, helped order the free books, and plans to offer assistance to kids with

TO help childReN better understand democracy two organizations and libraries are sponsoring a writing contest that offers prizes to the first, second and third place submissions. their writing if needed. “I think it is incredibly valid, especially in this day in age, to talk about democracy and what it means to you,” said Aviva Kane, the library’s director. “We are looking at record low participation rates, and the way to get participation is to really hit home with our kids and say it’s important to have a voice.”

Jean Simpson, provisional director of the Elmont library, said they are partnering with local school librarians to get the

word out about the contest. She said she believes this contest may open doors to careers in gover nment, politics, or humanitarian efforts for these students — where they can make real change.

“I believe the youth in the Elmont community and around the country are so important in this ever-changing world,” Simpson said. “We’re looking forward to what these students are going to show and teach us in their research … the pen is mightier than the sword.”

Soirée Under the Stars has strong return Honored were Peter Cannuscio, Felix Nazario and Rita Regan at hospital fundraiser StaFF rePort Just under $700,000 was raised at the Sept. 17 return of Soirée Under the Stars at The Seawane Club in Hewlett.

The Mount Sinai South Nassau fundraiser was the first in-person gathering of this kind since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, and honored Peter Cannuscio, Rita Regan and Felix Nazario.

Cannuscio is executive vice president and chief operating officer of Axis Construction Corp., which has played a key role in a number of Mount Sinai construction projects in recent years, including the 60,000-square-foot multi-specialty medical office building in Wantagh, as well as the urgent care center in Long Beach.

A registered nurse, Regan is the hospital’s patient experience and care coordination vice president. Nazario is the hospital’s environmental services administrative director. Both were instrumental in the hospital’s approach to Covid-19 during the pandemic, overcoming daily challenges to help keep both patients and staff members as safe as possible from the virus.

Funds will help support the hospital’s $400 million long-term strate gic g rowth initiative, designed to improve services for patients across the South Shore. That includes a new four-story patient pavilion — the J Wing — as well as the $35 million medical arts pavilion in Long Beach, and the new Wantagh medical arts building.

The expansion of the hospital’s emergency department will nearly double its size to accommodate more than 80,000 patient visits each year, and feature dedicated treatment areas for pediatric and behavioral health patients.

Long Island’s Top Lawyers honored by Herald C Benefits are more than just professional, but also community

eserving attorneys from across the region gathered in Bethpage on Sept. 13 to be honored at the third annual Top Lawyers of Long Island.

Spearheaded by RichnerLive — the events division of Richner Communications and Herald Community Media — lawyers were awarded for their achievements in a wide range of fields, including bankruptcy, estates and trusts, business and commercial litigation, criminal, cyber security, divorce mediation, elder law, education, emerging companies and venture capital, environmental, franchise law, government relations, taxes, and real estate.

Maria Girardi, an associate with Jaspen Schlesinger LLP, says she finds success thanks to the access she has to senior attorneys in the firm, providing invaluable wealth of experience.

Christine-Marie Lauture, owner and managing attorney of Lauture IP PPLC, was a first-time attendee earning her first Top Lawyer award.

“It’s nice to be recognized on Long Island,” Lauture said.

“When people think of New York, they always think of Manhattan, So, it’s good to have a wide variety of practice areas of amazing attorneys out here on Long Island.”

Amy Amato, executive director of corporate relations and events for Richner, expressed gratitude to the nearly 250 attendees.

A portion of the ticket proceeds were directed towards the Nassau County Bar Association, the go-to source for legal advice and services for both the legal and local community in Nassau and the FealGood Foundation.

The event itself was led by lifestyle television personality Judy Goss, who was joined on stage by retired Herald publisher Cliff Richner.

“On behalf of my brother and myself, I want to thank you all for being part of this special evening where we celebrate the achievements of the Long Island law community,” Cliff Richner said.

Cliff ’s brother, of course, is company chief executive Stuart Richner.

“This evening is a real celebration

And that’s what this night is all about.”

Jared Behr, an associate at Salenger Sack Kimmel & Bavaro LLP, was awarded a rising star in the legal community.

“What exemplifies a lawyer who wins an award like this is someone with a bit of altruism,” Behr said. “You need to think that you are working to do good every day, and have a lot of dedication to the people you are trying to help.”

Another Top Lawyer award went home with Alyson Bass of Bass & Associates of NY PLLC, for her dedication to meeting the legal needs of the Long Island community she served for more than 16 years.

It’s a wonderful networking event and I’m honored to be recognized and supported for the work we do at the firm, said Donna-Marie Korth, Partner Certilman Balin Adler & Hyman, LLP.

The impact of a winning start to the season has the ability to build confidence for a team. After finishing last year with a 6-2-4 record and a third-place finish in Conference A-IV, Carey girls soccer is to a hot start winning its first five games against Glen Cove, Valley Stream North, Hewlett, Island Trees and Clarke.

The Seahawks have been lights-out on both sides of the ball scoring 16 goals and allowing just one goal (least in A4) over their five games. The latest victory was a 1-0 decision over Clarke in the home opener Sept. 20. Brianna D’Orsa got the goal and Vanessa DeCastro had a 5-save shutout.

A big advantage for Carey is all of its starters from last season returned. Only three players graduated from, meaning the team also retained the majority of their bench.

Now, plenty of players have an idea of what needs to be done in order to win games.

“I honestly kept the tactics and mentality the exact same,” coach Chris Posillico said. “Coming into their second year of knowing what’s expected, it’s been a lot smoother of a transition.”

One of the biggest contributors on offense has been sophomore midfielder Antonietta Flaherty, who leads the Seahawks with four assists and eight points. Just three games into the season, Flaherty matched her goal total from last season with a pair.

“I think she’s been one the best players we’ve had so far this season,” Posillico said. “Her vision is just exceptional.”

Three key leaders for the Seahawks this year are captains D’Orsa, Gabriella Mendolia, and Giulia Spinzo. All three have recorded at least three points to begin their respective senior campaigns.

“They’ve definitely come in a lot more mature than last year,” Posillico said.

While the Seahawks are led by a majority of their upperclassmen, sophomore defender Gabriella Jacobs has gotten a bigger role after being named All-County as a freshman. “She’s really been a lot

JUNior goalKeeper VaNessa DeCastro recorded four shutouts through the Seahawks’ first five games, allowing just one goal in the other. more vocal helping people get focused,” Posillico said.

One player that has also given the Seahawks more flexibility for others to become more successful is eighth-grade midfielder, Amelia Kalamaras. “She’s always in the right position,” Posillico said. “Her being able to play the position I have her in has allowed me to put returning girls in positions that allow them to hit their potential.”

Of the five victories to start the season, four have been shutouts for DeCastro, a

junior. “She’s been a leader since I took over last year,” Posillico said. “She’s someone I have all the confidence in the world in.”

Thanks to their undefeated start, the confidence is brewing for the Seahawks as they look to keep their momentum rolling in hopes of locking down their conference.

“The way the girls are working, I could definitely see us winning the conference,” Posillico said. “I feel like it’s a completely different team with the same players.”

’

up the joint A new season of tunes at the Madison Theatre ll the right notes and then some. The stage WHERE is set for the latest edition of the Madison Theatre’s popular jazz series. This year’s lineup, as always, WHEN includes both returning favorites and newcomers who are sure to keep that vibe grooving along.

• Madison Theatre, Molloy “Our jazz series is always special for us,” says University campus, 1000 Artistic Director Angelo Fraboni. “We’re one of Hempstead Ave., Rockville Centre the only venues on the island to do smooth jazz • Oct. 8-April 7 and our audience and musicians love to be here.

• For tickets, visit They love our venue — the way it’s laid out, the MadisonTheatreNY.org acoustics and sound system. It’s a comfortable or call the box office at setting for jazz. We all have a great time.”

(516) 323-4444 And the jazz world has taken notice. The “jazz groupies,” as Fraboni describes his patrons, come from all over — as far away as Texas and California. “They fly in for these shows and we make sure they have a fabulous experience.”

This season is highlighted by the return of the Grammywinning sax player Gerald Albright (Oct. 8 ) and the saxflautist Kirk Whalum (Nov. 19) , along with the acclaimed saxophonist-bandleader Branford Marsalis (Jan. 20) and the genre-defying Boney James (April 7).

“Gerald Albright is a world-class player,” Fraboni enthuses, who has recorded numerous successful solo albums when he isn’t busy assisting an impressive roster of popular R&B artists.

“Top to bottom,” Albright says, “Whether in concert, listening to my music over the radio or CD player, I always want my listeners to be taken on a musical journey with different textures, rhythms, chord progressions and moods. I want people to know where I’ve been and where I’m going, and to let them hear that I’m in a really good place in my life.”

Kirk Whalum is a familiar presence on the Madison stage with his gospel concerts. “He’s a popular mainstay here,” Fraboni says. “He always brings something different every time. In a career spanning decades, Whalum has a sound that is uniquely his; it is a sound that leaves an indelible imprint on the listener.

And at long last Fraboni welcomes Branford Marsalis. As he puts it: “Branford is Branford — what more is there to say!”

His appearance here has been over three years in the making, delayed by the pandemic and inclement weather last year. “I’ve been wanting to get him here since I first came to Molloy (as artistic director). I’m very excited to finally have him come.”

The “rock star of the smooth jazz world,” according to Fraboni, Boney James is a fitting finale to the concert series.

“Boney is a showman from head to toe.” One of the most successful instrumental artists of our time, James has accumulated numerous awards and recorded 17 albums, all the while

Branford Marsalis Quartet continuing to defy genres. “I firmly ascribe to the concept that music is 100 percent subjective,” he says. “If you’re hearing music and it sounds good and beautiful to you, then that makes it beautiful. It’s all within the listener. It’s not important for other people to tell you how they react.”

One of the great vocalists, songwriters, and composers of his generation, Rufus Wainwright is on tour with songs from his Grammynominated “Unfollow the Rules,” his first non-operatic album in eight years. Considered the bookend to his debut album (that garnered him Best New Artist by Rolling Stone in 1998), it’s seen as a summary and climax of all his previous albums, a work of true maturity, met with great critical acclaim. Long lauded for his sophistication and wit, he’s now working at the peak of his powers, his music guided by passion, honesty, and a newfound fearlessness, according to his peers. Expect a glorious mixture of deep emotion, drama, wit, solace, uplift, entertainment and absolute musical bliss, a journey that not many artists can take you along on.

Friday, Sept. 30, 8 p.m. $80, $68, $58. Jeanne Rimsky Theater at Landmark on Main Street, 232 Main St., Port Washington. (516) 767-6444 or LandmarkOnMainStreet.org.

Hear tunes from Hall’s first-ever solo retrospective album, “BeforeAfter,” plus some Hall & Oates classics.

Taken as a whole, BeforeAfter draws unexpected and satisfying connections between the esoteric and accessible sides of Hall’s creativity. Hall is a modern-day renaissance man, an inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with the bestselling duo of all time, the star of his very own award-winning web series-turned-TV staple, “Live from Daryl’s House,” as well as a successful venue owner with Daryl’s House, a restored music space in Pawling, N.Y.

Riders ask about LIRR’s Grand Central plan

By JUAN LASSO jlasso@liherald.com

The opening of a new underground train terminal meant to provide Long Island Rail Road riders with service to Manhattan’s East Side, dubbed Grand Central Madison, is just around the corner. By the end of the year, in fact.

It’s a project that the Metropolitan Transportation Authority officials, who run the LIRR, say will draw nearly half of LIRR commuters — more than 160,000 of them — to its transit hub.

But before anything is set in stone, the LIRR gave riders a tentative forecast of how their commuting times and options will either change or stay the same, according to new draft schedules released to the public earlier this year.

Opinions are mixed, with riders showing equal levels of enthusiasm and apprehension about what they stand to gain, and lose, from the coming changes.

Many have sounded off about their concerns not only to the MTA, but to anyone who would listen — including at a virtual public meeting last week, hosted by Assemblywoman Judy Griffin and joined by Nick Fasano, the agency’s assistant director of community relations.

At the live discussion, LIRR commuters like Charlene Raytek, of Lynbrook, voiced their apprehension that the new schedules could hamper riders’ commutes from Penn Station to places like Lynbrook during the evening commute.

“The thing that I noticed is that, looking at the proposed draft schedules, it looks like the outbound evening train service from Penn to Lynbrook is greatly reduced,” Raytek said. “By the time 7:30 rolls around, there’s a roughly 90-minute time gap until the next train rolls at Penn Station.”

During that time, Raytek noted, there are plenty of people heading home from sports events, concert or shows in

ASSemBLywOmAN JUdy GriffiN and the MTA’s Nick Fasano fielded commuters’ questions about new train service to Grand Central Terminal, set to start by year’s end.

Manhattan’s nearby theater district. Such time gaps would complicate their trips home.

If you miss the Penn Station train, Raytek contended, you’d have to sprint to Grand Central within 15 minutes to catch the next train home, or face a long wait for the next one at Penn. “That looks to me like a big misstep,” Raytek said.

A key takeaway from these changes is that Jamaica station, which has long served as a major transfer point for

LIRR commuters, will play a far bigger role in the future now that all trains will stop there, Fasano noted.

“It may sound like an absolute nightmare for everyone,” he said, “but the rationale behind having all the trains stop there is that it gives people more options and flexibility about where they want to go. And that also means that we don’t have to hold connections anymore.”

Whatever convenience of service may be lost from the reduction in the number of trains like those from Penn Station to Lynbrook will be offset by the many new alternative commuting paths that open up in Jamaica. But that, Fasano acknowledged, will take some getting used to.

“I’m sure riders know their trains inside and out, know what their options are,” he said. “And they don’t change much (more than) a couple of minutes in each direction.

So there’s going to be a learning curve for our customers.

“I would say, just try some of the flexibility that you’ll have,” Fasano added. “Rely on the (TrainTime) app. After people adjust, it’s really going to be a great thing.”

But for commuters like Amanda Dindyal, of Malverne, who lives right behind the LIRR’s West Hempstead line, there may be more at stake in her neighborhood than simply a shakeup in commuting habits.

“The moment a train comes down, our house rattles, and we’ve gotten used to it, but it’s very, very disheartening to see that it’s going to almost double,” Dindyal said of the number of trains that will rumble through her neighborhood. “And not just during peak hours — even on the weekend. It’s a quality-of-life issue.” On top of that, she said she was concerned that residents could face an “obscene” increase in traffic near crossing gates.

“There’s a legal and demographic factor behind what the minimum is that we can provide as a public transportation authority,” Fasano said. “But that all being said, if there is no demand, we do have the option to, you know, scale back, potentially. But again, that will take some months.”

Home Improvement Corp.

Q. I hired a carpenter to rebuild my garage because it was rotted and leaning. The roof was OK, so we kept it, but all the walls were stripped away and replaced. In the middle of the job, an inspector showed up and stopped it, saying we needed a permit.

I hired an architect, he made a plan and we filled in the permit. Now the plans have been rejected because, according to the inspector, they have to show fireproof walls and roof. That’s crazy! Nobody has that, so why am I being made to do this? It’s expensive, and I shouldn’t have to do it. I think they’re making me pay for starting with no permit, right?

A. Not exactly, but you have to look at the big picture. You may feel like you’re getting burned, but the building code is actually named The Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code. Fire prevention is a primary reason that the building laws exist.

In many cases, building departments allow existing garages to have onte eeper minor repairs without a permit, but only for things like replacing a garage door, a rotted section of wall base plate, shingles or siding, although you should always verify before starting. You described a near-complete rebuild, only saving the roof part of the garage, and your building official has determined that, beyond 50 percent change, the code for new buildings applies. Even though your zoning code allows a free-standing accessory structure to be 2 feet to 4 feet from a property line, depending on your community, garages that are closer than 5 feet to a property line must have materials that are rated to prevent flame spread for an hour.

This is especially important in places where there’s a volunteer fire department that must take the time to assemble from all over the community before even heading off to put out the flames. In that precious time, without flame-retardant materials, the structure may not just become completely engulfed, but also spread fire to adjacent houses and other structures. Unless you never catch the news, you can clearly see how vulnerable whole towns and cities are, and just because we don’t live next to a forest, the unthinkable can still happen.

As for cost, aluminum siding, which actually still exists, may cost less, can be painted to match the house and lasts an average of 35 years. Fiber cement siding also does the job, but costs more.

Other choices include stucco over cement board and steel panels, all more costly. Aluminum or cement board eaves, gutters and roofing are also required, and even though most of the home construction industry doesn’t read or know the regulations, the requirements still exist, and cost the most when they aren’t adhered to and the work has to be done twice.

So don’t feel like you’re being singled out or being held to the fire. The rules exist for all of us.

Good luck!

hy do we have to go back to the moon? Ever since NASA started trying, unsuccessfully so far, to launch its unmanned Artemis I spacecraft, which is supposed to explore some regions of the moon, lots of voices have been heard decrying the effort. It’s too expensive, they say. We did that already. What’s to be gained? We have other priorities here on Earth.

Those are challenging questions.

We put a dozen astronauts on the moon in six missions between JAMEs 1969 and 1972, and spent about $25 BERnsTEin we billion doing so.

In today’s dollars, that’s about $250 billion.

For those who were around on July 20, 1969 — the day Neil Armstrong stepped onto the surface of another world for the first time in human history — it may be hard to understand why we wouldn’t want to relive that glory. And glory it may be, but we must deal with some of

i

the issues raised by the naysayers.

One of them, perhaps the most important, is priorities. The Earth’s climate is in desperate trouble, beset by life-threatening heat waves, melting polar ice caps and drying lakebeds. Pollution is so dense in some Asian cities that people are forced on many days to wear masks or stay at home. Couldn’t billions of dollars be better spent combating climate change?

Yes, money could, and must, be spent for that purpose, and soon, too. But we have to multi-task. While we must legislate against air-polluting companies and work cooperatively with our largest competitor, China, to bring environmental order to our plant — and at the same time battle those who claim that it’s all a hoax — we must move forward, as we always have, ever since we invented the wheel.

Once Artemis I gets off the ground, some exciting missions are ahead. A manned lunar fly-by, Artemis II, may come as soon as 2024. The first manned landing, Artemis III, might happen as early as 2025. And this time we won’t

Y

just plant a flag on the moon and say, “We did it.”

One of the biggest reasons for a return to the moon is that it will serve as a steppingstone to Mars. We are already examining some rocks that could contain clues to the presence of some kind of microbial life on Mars. Human inspection of those rocks could provide some extraordinary insight into the origins of life in the universe.

Could Mars one day be made habitable by humans? We won’t find that out unless we go there.

We should remember that the rock samples brought back from the moon by the Apollo astronauts told us much about the moon’s geological history, including its physical and chemical makeup.

A narrower goal may be found on the moon itself. NASA has announced 13 potential landing sites, all in the moon’s South Pole region. NASA scientists say that ice has been confirmed inside craters that never see any sunlight. We all know that where there is water, frozen or otherwise, there may be, or may have

es, there are huge problems here on Earth, but we have to muti-task.

been, life.

Those sites “are some of the best places to go for lunar geology and understanding lunar ice and sampling lunar ice,” Bethany Ehlmann, associate director of the Keck Institute for Space Studies at the California Institute of Technology, told National Public Radio recently.

Our Apollo missions all led to new technologies in electronics, aerospace and medicine. A more advanced program focused on returning to the moon, with an eye toward reaching Mars, is bound to lead to even more such advances.

A NASA study from 2013 estimated that commercial products that have emerged from the space agency’s research return between $100 million and $1 billion annually to the U.S. economy. Many of those had their origins in the Apollo program.

Lastly, but by no means least important, re-energizing our moon/Mars efforts is going to inspire thousands of young people to become engineers, technicians, lunar geologists and astronauts.

What an exciting future they face. But we must get going first.

When Nazis killed 6 million, where was America?

implore readers to watch the new six-hour, three-part series on PBS, “The U.S. and the Holocaust,” by Ken Burns, Lynn Novick and Sarah Botstein. Please find time to see this series, and bring your teenagers along.

Make it a teaching moment.

After 70 years, you might think there’s nothing new to say about the horror of 6 million Jews killed by a political regime intent on wiping out an entire people.

However, this TV series shifts the lens and explores the story of America’s inaction as the Holocaust RAnDi surged in Europe.

KREiss A few remaining survivors of the death camps speak to the camera and remember the moments that their parents sent them away or hid them in the woods or gave them a hug goodbye that turned out to be forever. The story is especially painful through the eyes of those kids who lived through unthinkable sorrow and now are old men and women who calmly speak of the days when mothers and fathers were rounded up by Nazis and taken to extermination camps. The only reason was that they were Jewish, and

Germany, under Hitler, embraced ancient anti-Semitic tropes, demonizing the Jews and targeting them for elimination.

What did the United States know, and when did it know it? I asked my own parents, who were in their 20s during World War II here in America, and they said they knew nothing about the death camps until the end of the war. But ample evidence exists that the American government at the time, under President Franklin D. Roosevelt, saw the aerial photographs of the deportation trains and the camps.

The Burns documentary demonstrates that the deeply rooted antisemitism that existed in Europe for generations was alive and gathering strength in the U.S. during the 1920s, ’30s and ’40s.

Celebrities like Charles Lindbergh and Henry Ford, and political leaders like Calvin Coolidge — who ran on the slogan “America must be kept American” — were openly antisemitic. Religious leaders like Father Charles Coughlin preached hatred and racial separation from the pulpit. We may know this history, but seeing the contemporaneous newsreels and photos reveals the antiJewish sentiment that was gaining traction among the American people.

W

The documentary works on several levels, resonating today, as American politicians shuffle immigrants around the country like political chess pieces.

One review stated, “Burns’ film . . . connects our nation’s history of antisemitic bigotry to the racist immigration legacy that Republicans are establishing in the present. It is, at once, a window into the past and a mirror showing present-day America an ugly reflection of who we are.”

Another review, at MSNBC.com: “In (Coolidge’s) slogan, we can hear the roots of the racist, Trump-obsessed ‘Make America Great Again’ movement.

“Coolidge’s successor, Herbert Hoover, took his predecessor’s antisemitism even further when he instructed his State Department to refuse visas to anyone who might need public assistance, which included many Jews who had escaped Germany with little to their name in the lead-up to Hitler’s reign.

“President Donald Trump revived that policy, known as the ‘public charge’ rule.”

It is unlikely that the folks who are in the book-banning business in America would consider exposing their schools to

e could have done more, and saved lives. We need to own our history.

a TV series documenting this country’s blatant and persistent antisemitism, but if they did, they might learn that genocide doesn’t begin with tanks rolling into neighborhoods. It begins with book bans and rules restricting free speech and laws against gay marriage and gender identity.

What we are witnessing today in the U.S. are warning signs of the genocidal wave that tore Europe apart in the 1930s and ’40s. We find antisemitic leaflets in our driveways; we are told that our children can’t read “The Diary of Anne Frank”; we read in the news that groups of migrants are hustled around the country by hollow men like Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to score political points.

The seeds are sown. They have always been in our soil. We need to monitor this garden very carefully. A good beginning is to watch “The U.S. and the Holocaust.”

We could have done more. We could have saved lives. But too many citizens and American leaders believed what, decades later, became the chants of “Jews will not replace us!” They believed the lies, and they did nothing to stop the deportations and killings.

We need to own our history. If we deny the resurgence of bigotry and antisemitism, they will surely consume our democracy.

Banning books is un-American ast week was Banned Books Week, a time to spotlight censorship and attempts across the country to take books off library

shelves.

You may not have noticed that in the past several months, a number of libraries in the U.S., including some in schools, have pulled books from their shelves, and though they might not have burned them, they have effectively prohibited people from reading them.

Book bans have become more frequent in this country, and the censoring efforts appear to be organized. It’s not just random parents pushing the bans. PEN America, an organization that celebrates and defends free expression, reports that some 50 groups have been created, most of them since last year, to challenge books, and they were involved in nearly half of the book removals.

More than 1,600 books were banned from American schools over the past year, impacting 4 million students who might now be exposed to ideas that could help them grow and learn, according to PEN America. A majority of those books highlight LGBTQ+ and racial themes. We find it abhorrent that, as has been the case for many decades, ideas that people disagree with, and possibly fear, are the subject of book bans.

Here on Long Island, there was the infamous Island Trees book ban in 1975.

letters Hooray for snow days!

To the Editor: I so agree with the Herald’s editorial in the Sept. 15-21 issue, “Schools are right to resurrect the snow day.” I’m an old lady now of 76, but in 1952 there was a huge, fierce but wonderful snowstorm that did indeed come “unbidden,” but was a wonder to behold. I lived then in a railroad apartment in Brooklyn, so I ran to the living room window, the only one that faced the street. The snow had eclipsed the mailbox across from us on Park Place. I could barely make out the sign for Womrath’s bookstore.

My father took a picture of it, and that photo still evokes the pleasure of childhood.

I was in a parochial “grammar school” then. We had no phone yet, but it was assumed that the nuns had common sense.

All the kids on the block were out in their snowsuits. I saw Marty and Tommy, Janet and Elinor making snowballs, and after much pleading, my mother let me join them. Marty and Tommy made an igloo that day, and it was perfect. I wanted to bring down my doll and play house in it!

Marty was my upstairs neighbor, so he let me stand inside it. I was amazed that it was

A community group complained to the Island Trees Board of Education about 11 books that group members considered “anti-American, anti-Christian, antiSemitic and just plain filthy.” The district removed nine of the books from its schools’ libraries. Five students, led by Steven Pico, then a high school senior, challenged the district’s decision.

The case wound its way to the Supreme Court, where, in 1982, the court ruled in the students’ favor, noting that the right to read is implied by the First Amendment of the Constitution. Indeed, reading freely is fundamental to the education of citizens of a healthy democracy.

Nearly 50 years after Island Trees, however, a similar scenario is unfolding in this country. “This is a dangerous time for readers and the public servants who provide access to reading material,” Deborah Caldwell-Stone, director of the American Library Association’s Office for Intellectual Freedom, said. “Readers, particularly students, are losing access to critical information, and librarians and teachers are under attack for doing their jobs.”

That should not be. We have more access than ever to written material and ideas, from books to eBooks to websites, full of ideas that should be read, discussed and considered thoughtfully. The vitality of our lives, and the possibility of creating a more enlightened world, depends on the freedom to exchange

ideas. Banning books that some find objectionable will only take us backward as a society.

Because books explore and illuminate differing points of view, they help to build connections among people by deepening their understanding of those points of view. Those who censor books are creating barriers to the building of relationships among diverse thinkers, and instead feed the divisiveness that threatens to do so much damage to this country.

As the keepers of books, librarians are on the front lines of this battle. One local librarian said it is not up to her to prohibit people from reading books. From the adult section to the children’s room, her philosophy is to let the people decide what they will read, and, in the case of children, let their parents decide what is appropriate for them.

We urge everyone, regardless of politics, to adopt the theme the ALA promoted for this year’s Banned Books Week — “Books Unite Us. Censorship Divides Us” — and reject the idea of censoring books.

“If you can read, you can rule the world,” a teacher once told her seventhgrade junior English class. You might not be interested in ruling the world, but you should want to understand it, and do your part to help make the world more enlightened and less divided. Reading books, not banning them, is one of the best ways to do that.

opInIons

s it any surprise that Gov. Kathy Hochul’s once insurmountable lead in the polls is eroding when public opinion surveys are analyzed carefully?

While Hochul has a stunningly large campaign war chest, suggesting that she can buy an overwhelming number of broadcast and print ads and direct-mail campaigns, what you can’t fix with money is a tone-deaf political campaign.

From her endorsement of illegal two-family homes in the heart of Long Island residential neighborhoods, to her inability to conronALD J. front progressives Albany who are rosenBerG in making street crime a New York pastime, to her most recent self-destructive advocacy of congestion pricing, the governor is sleepwalking through a campaign of missteps.

She would not be the first officeholder to assume a victory party on election night only to discover that incumbency held false promise and led to errant assumptions.

Consider County Executive Laura Curran’s loss to Bruce Blakeman last November. That wasn’t the first time that a New York incumbent was stunned by a loss. Ed Mangano did the same thing to Tom

Suozzi. Republican Alfonse D’Amato ran a flawless campaign in 1980 in a heavily Democratic state, and was returned for another six years in 1986 after a first term that made him unbeatable. Similarly, George Pataki stunned Mario Cuomo in a gubernatorial race that many thought was Cuomo’s to lose. And so he did.

By now, a growing number of New York Democrats recognize the threat that November holds for them.

As a result, they are seeking to change the conversation.

Rather than address the issues they are directly responsible for, they are turning to national politics, where there remains a white-hot divide over issues like abortion. Similarly, they are seeking to make the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot a local issue.

It’s a classic political tactic. If you don’t like where the conversation is going, change the subject. In this case, Democratic strategists are telling their candidates they need to motivate their base or prepare for a dismal election night.

Understandably, reminding Democratic voters that their incumbent candidates voted to dismantle criminal laws that protect law-abiding citizens isn’t a recipe for success. Nor is a reminder that those same incumbents voted to impose a hefty surcharge on Long Islanders driving into

A

Manhattan. Or a reminder that progressives have captured your party, and the lurch to the left is so profound that you may not recognize New York later in this decade.

Hochul isn’t new to the cynical game of politics. She is a veteran of the hard-knock school of Buffalo Democratic machine politics. That’s why she is appearing at every downstate ribbon-cutting or other photo op that her schedulers can squeeze on to her calendar. The irony is that many of the project unveilings she is celebrating were pushed through by her predecessor, Andrew Cuomo.

The LIRR third track project? That was Cuomo, but his name was never mentioned during Hochul’s celebratory news conference in August.

The new LaGuardia Airport terminals?

Once again, it was Hochul welcoming 21stcentury improvements made possible by Andrew the Abdicated.

The Penn Station upgrades? Another Cuomo legacy project. And there is no reference by the Hochul administration to the political strong-arming Cuomo engaged in to get the project moving.

Potholes? Well, here she tips her hat to D’Amato, whose critics sought to minimize his achievement of bringing hundreds of millions of dollars to New York’s

growing number of Democrats recognize the threat the election holds.

Letters warmer inside than out.

Later, we kids went inside the vestibule of the church to the inner hall and placed our wool gloves on the radiator. The smell of the steaming wet wool was headier than the incense used in church.

A day off from school in the days before Zoom, when nearly everyone’s mom stayed home, can’t be compared to the post-pandemic world, unless of course you’re 76 and looking back on it. Our youngest daughter remembers her days off from the Floral Park-Bellerose School. I remember her making a snowman with my husband, and how happy she was having hot chocolate with a marshmallow. Whatever was lost in class time was gained in memory, like an eloquent poem or the lyrics of a song that stay with us long after the last notes have been played.

But do students know what to do with them?

To the Editor: How ironic that “Schools are right to resurrect the snow day” stated that “all of us deserve a chance to enjoy the world around us.” We have detached ourselves from the world around us as we walk and even sit on park benches, forfeiting connecting with the person sitting next to us. The almighty cellphone has taken charge, along with computerized and TV enter-

aging infrastructure by suggesting he was the “pothole senator.” Instead, in his 1986 campaign, D’Amato ran with the endorsements of many of the state’s Democratic mayors, who had never seen a U.S. senator in their cities, much less a federal grant.

That the state’s Democratic leaders seek to divert attention from policy issues their candidates are responsible for, to national issues that remain Washington’s purview, reveals a justifiable nervousness. One current poll has Hochul and her Republican opponent, Lee Zeldin, separated by 11 percentage points. That reveals a continuing slide for an incumbent who may have money to burn on ads but is confronting a skeptical electorate whose quality of life has eroded.

Nick Langworthy, the GOP state chairman, recently said of Democrats, “They are terrified their base is not going to show up. … There’s a lot of campaign left to fight here, and if they think people are going to just take a couple of hot-button issues and that’s going to define the race, they’re dreaming.”

One suspects that Election night 2022 will not have a called winner in New York’s most high-profile contest until the morning after.

tainment with which children occupy themselves.

I grew up with snow days, too, and was happy to be able to stay home from school. Indeed, it was a treat.

Ah, freedom! But I wonder about the emphasis on play, rather than shoveling ourselves out and getting to our destinations and catching up after Covid. It seems that would be foremost in our decision-making.

In my neighborhood, children are always indoors.

We have no more happy voices outside as they’re playing, unless for a short time, confined to their yards behind fences. I wonder how many of them will actually enjoy the world around them on the next snow day, instead of immersing themselves in the technology that keeps them indoors. Put the technology away, and then you’ll create a better-quality memory.

But our children, at least now, due to Covid, have been set back in their education, and there is catching up to do. It seems that would be our primary concern, at least until we’ve pulled even. Snow can be played in after school and on weekends, and sometimes we have to do what we have to do.

That, too, is a lesson, aside from the fact that our children suffered through home learning during the pandemic. It brought my 8-year-old granddaughter to tears. There is important ground to make up.

Children will appreciate the value of an “unexpected breather” even more if they have done what needs to be done. Kids are resilient. Work before play, first things first, and they will be rewarded — twice.
