Marking a century for two of community’s finest By MOHAMED FARGHAlY mfarghaly@liherald.com
The Village of East Rockaway recognized former East Rockaway residents Francis and Carthene McQuade’s birth centennial with a proclamation and dedication of a memorial tree at East Rockaway’s Memorial Park. This year would have marked the 100th birthday of Frank and Carthene McQuade. Members of the McQuade family joined village officials and East Rockaway Mayor Bruno Romano for the July 7 dedication. Francis J. McQuade was born July 14, 1922, in Brooklyn. After attending Manhattan College, he
became an electrical engineer and served in the Navy during World War II. After the war, he returned to Brooklyn and met his future wife on a leisure trip to Montreal. Carthene McQuade was born Carthene Marinaro on Oct. 11, 1922, in Danbury, Connecticut. As an Italian-American woman who attended graduate school at New York University after graduating from New Britain Teachers College, she was known by many as a “glass ceiling breaker.” She was a teacher at Danbury High School before marrying Francis J. McQuade. In 1957, Frank and Carthene moved from Brooklyn to Long

Island, where they raised their six children. They relocated to East Rockaway, where they remained until they died — Frank in 1993 and Carthene in 2011. The couple was proud of
the community and involved in a number of local activities. A proclamation was made by the mayor and the village board July 7, recognizing the couple’s significance in Rockaway and their contributions to the community. The proclamation commemorating Francis and Carthene’s states, “Whereas Francis and
Carthene McQuade moved to East Rockaway in 1957, where they raised their family and where they lived until their deaths respectively in 1993 and 2011, and; Whereas they cherished their life and time in East Rockaway and embraced their community through many civic involvements, and; Whereas 2022 Continued on page 14

The Diocese of Rockville Centre and the Morning Star Initiative announced the appointment of Pamela Sanders as the Superintendent of the Department of Education in the Diocese of Rockville Centre on July 7. “I am extremely grateful to Bishop Barres and the MSI team for this tremendous opportunity,” Sanders said. “I am eager to work alongside the professionals in the Department of Education, pastors, principals, and faculty in our diocese in serving the families and students in our Catholic schools.” Sanders has 20 years of experience in education in the diocese and worked most recently as the principal of Holy Name of Mary Catholic School in Valley Stream. She will assume her new position on August 1. In 2021, Sanders helped start a partnership as a pilot school under the Morning Star Initiative, a plan between the diocese and the Marianists to revitalize Catholic elementary school education on Long Island. Previously, Sanders spent 14 years at St. Edward the Confessor Catholic School in Syosset, serving in the roles of assistant principal, director of religious education, director of the Confirmation program, middle school religion teacher, and kindergarten teacher.

Moultrie comes home to develop apartments
LYNBROOK/EAST ROCKAWAY HERALD — July 14, 2022

A
zoning change was the catalyst to springboard the construction a five-story apartment complex at the intersection of Bayview Avenue and Russell Place in Inwood. It is a project that made contractor Isaiah Moultrie proud to revitalize the community he calls home. The construction of the fivestory residential building was up for debate in a Feb. 6, 2020 Inwood Civic Association meeting, now the blueprints are set in stone. The 11.7-acre lot near the Lawrence LIRR station extending nearly 9 acres by the Inwood station is said to soon “sustain vibrant flourishIsAIAh ing hamlet centers,” according MouLtRIe to town officials. developer The town’s code allows buildings with single-family units to be no higher than three stories or 45 feet. Single-family residences can be no more than 2.5 stories with a maximum height of 30 feet. County Executive Bruce Blakeman rallied the concept in his previous position as a councilman. CoNCePt ARt “Bruce Blakeman was extremely helpful in getting the zoning change so we could build a building with the kind of density that was necessary,” said Moultrie. He expects excavation to start between September and October of this year with completion within 18 months. “It’s within five or six blocks from the Long Island Railroad and if someone has to go to a train for Rockaway, it’s accessible,” said Moultrie. “You have the bus stop directly across the street for public transportation.” The complex is meant for Inwood residents but new faces too, at an affordable rate and quality return. Before, it was a mere “set of dilapidated old buildings,” said Moultrie. Now, the Inwood native looks to modernize it, having no gas, “everything electric,” and solar. “This is the first new development of this size in probably almost 67 years,” Moultrie said. “It was a five-year haul of trying to get things done with it and then when (Blakeman) got behind it really moved forward. “I think he was wise and saw the future of Inwood. The estimated $20 million project seems to be more than just an economic stimulus for Inwood, but also a giving back. Moultrie was born and raised on Maurice Avenue in Inwood going to Lawrence, Woodmere Academy. His father had his roots as the village pastor, honored by his service as a Marine. He ran a free bread and cheese government program out of the church for years, according to Moultrie. “My father has always given back to the communi-

He plans to offer electrical and plumbing tutoring to 10 to 15 teens. Moultrie views this as a chance to mentor and provide opportunities not typically afforded to the community’s youth. “I’m humbled to be able to come back to my hometown, where I grew up as a kid, where I went to elementary school, nursery school, and junior high school into high school,” said Moultrie. “There’s a great need for housing, tastefully done housing where people can live a better life and have a better life for their children.” Moultrie acquired the property over the years, starting with his parents in the ‘70s. Now it is set to feature a gym, swimming pool, office, and work areas. He believes this will lead other contractors to follow suit in such projects. He has plans for another project in Roosevelt and one in Baldwin. “I take a lot of joy and I thank God that He blessed us with this ability do to this. It truly is a blessing,” he said.

On July 5, Lynbrook firefighters were called out for a reported house fire at 1:32 A.M. with only an address given as “Sherman Street and President Street.” Lynbrook Chief of Department Chris Kelly, and Assistant Chiefs Danny Ambrosio, Scott Bien, and Clayton Murphy were quickly on the scene and found the homeowner at 106 Sherman Street with a garden hose attempting to put out the fire in his garage. Engine Company 1 was first on the scene, followed by Tally-Ho Engine 3, and Truck Company. Engine Company dropped the corner hydrant and stretched two hose lines into the back-garage area at 106 Sherman Street. Tally-Ho Engine 3, who set up around the corner on Griffin Place hooked up to a hydrant after firefighters determined that the neighboring garage was nearly butted; the 106 Sherman Street garage was also on fire. Engine Company firefighters concentrated on Sherman Street while Tally-Ho firefighters worked on the Griffin Place

Herald sports Ducks carry momentum into second half By TONY BELLISSIMO tbellissimo@liherald.com
F
or the first time under thirdyear manager Wally Backman, the Long Island Ducks enter the second half of the Atlantic League Baseball schedule without the security of a playoff spot. The four-time league champion Ducks completed the first half July 5 with a record of 36-30, but that left them more than a dozen games off the pace of North Division runaway winner Southern Maryland. “We made some changes with our pitching staff and I’m pleased with how we finished the first half,” Backman said. “We were 10 games over .500 in June and we’re going in the right direction. “We’re not satisfied with our record and we know we’re capable of much more,” he added. “We know we’re better going into the second half. Southern Maryland had a great first half. We played them tough head-to-head. It’s just a lot of teams that beat us couldn’t beat them.” Entering the second half, Backman said the Ducks’ five-man starting pitching rotation is comprised of Stephen Tarpley, Scott Harkin, Akeel Morris, Joe Iorio and Anderson DeLeon. Brett Kennedy, who had a team-leading 3.03 ERA, had his contract purchased by the Boston Red Sox on May 24. Iorio and DeLeon, who began the season in the bullpen, were both members of the Ducks’ 2019 championship team. “Joe and Anderson have made our rotation better,” Backman said. “We’re going with five guys for now and I may even bump it to six with Bennett Perry coming back from injury.” Tarpley, a lefthander who appeared in one game for the New York Mets last season, split six decisions in the first half with a 3.59 ERA and a strikeout-to-walk ratio of 53 to 13. “We had a cold start to the year, but we’ve picked up our game a lot and we have a lot of promise,” Tarpley said. “Everyone is exciting about what we can accomplish in the second half.” The Ducks’ closer on a given night varies based on matchups. Tyler Webb (2.33 ERA) has 6 saves, and Sandy Baez (1.71) and Nick Goody (2.45) both have 5. Regarding the offense, Backman said: “Right now our lineup is pretty set. We don’t have a big bopper who’s going to hit 30-40 home runs and can change a game on one swing of the bat.” The Ducks went deep only 43 times in 66 games, ranking 9th in the 10-team league in the category. “Our ballpark is tough to hit homers in regardless,” Backman added. “So we have to continue to manufacture as much offense as possible and we have the personnel to do it.”

STEphEN TarpLEY carrIES a 3.59 ERA into the second half of the season to go with 53 strikeouts against only 13 walks. First baseman Sam Travis has been Long Island’s most consistent hitter, Backman said. In the first half, Travis batted .314 with a team-leading 8 home runs and 53 RBIs. “Sam’s been hitting very well for us after not getting a lot of playing time in AAA in recent years,” Backman noted. “He’s playing every day for us and he’s right up there among the league leaders in RBIs despite missing a couple of weeks.” Ten-year MLB veteran Alejandro De Aza, who played 108 games with Lancaster last season, is raking at the plate in his first year with the Ducks. The 38-year-old outfielder had a team-best .325 average in the first half with 5 homers, 32 RBIs and 34 runs. He’s part of a deep outfield that includes Johnni Turbo, L.J. Mazzilli and Dustin Woodcock. The infield took a hit when the Mets purchased the contract of shortstop Deven Marrero, who anchored the Ducks defense. “We lost Deven who was by far the best shortstop in the league,” Backman said. “Good for him, but that’s a hard position to fill.” Kevin Whatley made his Ducks debut
FIrST BaSEMaN SaM Travis, No. 26, has been the Ducks’ most consistent hitter and has 8 homers, 53 RBIs and a .314 batting average. July 5 and will see time at shortstop along with Vladamir Frias, the primary second baseman so far. Joe DeCarlo also plays second and splits time at catcher along with Austin Rei. Deibinson Romero returned at third base and had 7 homers and 30 RBIs in the first half. “We just have to go out there and play the way we’re capable of playing,” Backman said. “When all is said and done, we should be right there in contention in the end.”
2012 championship team honored
The Ducks hosted a 10th anniversary celebration of their 2012 Atlantic League championship team on July 2. In attendance were two integral parts of the championship club. They included
shortstop Dan Lyons, who was named the 2012 Championship Series Most Valuable Player after his walk-off bunt single in the bottom of the ninth inning in Game Five won the title for Long Island, and outfielder Kraig Binick, a native of Hicksville, who was an Atlantic League All-Star that year and batted .405 during the playoffs. Lyons threw out a ceremonial first pitch to Binick prior to the game against York. “Our run to the championship in 2012 is one of the most memorable stories in Atlantic League history,” said Ducks president/GM Michael Pfaff. “On this milestone anniversary of that incredible season, we welcomed back some distinguished alumni and celebrated their accomplishments.”
Buckingham Place fire wakes Lynbrook

LYNBROOK/EAST ROCKAWAY HERALD — July 14, 2022

An electrical short in a large ceiling fan in the attic of a home on Buckingham Place led to a fire that Lynbrook firefighters responded to early last Wednesday morning. Lynbrook firefighters were called out on June 29th at 3:47 AM for a reported house fire at 130 Buckingham Place between Ocean Avenue and Oak Street. First Assistant Chief Danny Ambrosio was first on the scene. He entered the home and made his way up to the second floor and found fire racing across the ceiling beams of the room and fire surrounding the attic fan. He immediately broadcast to the already responding fire units a “Signal 10” for a working fire at the location. Engine Company 1 was first on the scene and dropped a hose line at the house and proceeded up the block to a hydrant. Truck Company 1 and Tally-Ho Engine 3 arrived right behind them. Engine Company members brought the first attack line into the house and up to the attic while Tally-Ho members stretched a second back-up hose line. Truck Company raised its ladder to the roof while their members went to the attic to help with overhaul. They also laddered the house in the rear. The other Lynbrook fire companies and the department’s Emergency Medical

The fire however was quickly extinguished with the first hose line, and the exhaust van was pulled down by Truck Company

were given a disregard after firefighters quickly knocked down the fire and assistance was no longer needed. Fire damage was contained to the ceiling and interior roof area. There was also some water damage from extinguishing the fire. There were no injuries to the homeowners or the firefighters. Firefighters were at the scene for just over an hour.

Development geared toward young commuters ConTinued from fronT page with the village administrators starting almost 30 years ago.” A state review board approved a variance March 10 for the development to be built by Garden City-based Breslin Realty. Last November, the Town of Hempstead Industrial Development Agency approved a 30-year payment in lieu of taxes plan, or PILOT. Much of the project’s funding, $22.7 million comes from San Franciscobased investment firm, PCCP. Breslin Realty stepped in five years ago to convert the structure into a high-density residential complex. Breslin’s chief development officer, David Orwasher, told the Herald in June, “We’re happy and proud to be a contributor to the revitalization of the walking downtown in the Village of Lynbrook,” and that “this is a noble project that will add value across the board to the residents of Lynbrook.” Due to its proximity to the Long Island Rail station, the 278,014 square-foot development is geared towards young professionals who commute to Manhattan. “I think it should bring in a lot of new blood to Lynbrook–a lot of new people,” said Lynbrook Chamber of Commerce president Cory Hirsch. “I’m hopeful that it should continue bringing new businesses, and I think it’s a great thing for Lynbrook to have these apartments that’ll be right on the train– it’s very convenient to people (and) hopefully (will) entice people to move to Lyn-

The apartment complex will be seven stories tall with 55 studios, 111 one-bedroom, and 35 two-bedroom apartments. It will also provide 205 spaces in its parking garage along with a retail cafe,
clubroom, concierge and rooftop terrace along with other amenities. Ten percent of units will be designated for affordable housing–those below 130 percent of the area’s median income. “I grew up in Lynbrook, and I walked past that building for the past 20-plus
years.” Hirsch said. “It’s really nice that from an eyesore that was just a decrepit rundown building, we’re getting this gorgeous new apartment complex.” The new construction where the “eyesore” once stood will operate as a possible stimulus to Lynbrook’s economy. Hirsch believes it the Lynbrook community attractive to a new demographic. “I think when you have all these young professionals looking to spend money, they’re going to patronize restaurants. They’re going to walk through the downtown; they’re going to walk to the movie theater from there,” said Hirsch. “I think that it should only help, and it should only help to attract new businesses and help the businesses we have (to) continue to thrive.” Previously, the lot was pitched by Holiday Inn Express and the Marriott Courtyard for construction with no success. The building remained vacant. Support for change has been widespread. Jeff Greenfield, board of directors of the chamber of commerce, said, “I applaud Mayor (Alan) Beach and the current village board on removing this blight in the down business district. “They succeeded where two previous administrations failed. Credit also goes to David Orwasher of Breslin Realty for his persistence with Rabbi Singer when others failed. A great team effort for enhancing (the) quality of life in Lynbrook for generations to come.”

First Central Savings Bank opens its doors
LYNBROOK/EAST ROCKAWAY HERALD — July 14, 2022
By TOM CARROZZA tcarrozza@liherald.com
F
irst Central Savings Bank opened its ninth location at 303 Merrivk Road last week, aiming to bring back “banking the way it used to be, only better” in Lynbrook. Dozens packed into the entrance area of the Pistilli Corporate Building, to celebrate the occasion with local officials like Mayor Alan Beach showing up for the ribbon cutting. “We are a true community bank, so for us to serve a community such as Lynbrook really aligns to the mission is here at First Central Bank,” executive vice president and chief administrative officer Michael Serao said. In the first week of business, the bank saw 50 accounts opened and over $14 million put into it. Part of their mission of community-based banking has seen them bring back account opening gifts for those starting their first account with the bank. Joseph Pistilli, the chairman of the bank’s board of directors, helped build the building which now bears his name back in the 1970s when it became home to Jamaica Savings Bank. Pistilli now owns the building and the main conference room in the bank’s first floor residence is dedicated to him. “It’s a great feeling to bring a good thing to an area that truly needs the spirit and services of a true community savings bank,” Pistilli said. “And I think that our competition, which is very close by, needs to open their eyes and see what moved onto the block.” As a gesture to new neighbors, First Central presented several Lynbrook organizations with $1,000 checks, including Wounded Warriors, the Lynbrook Chamber of Commerce, the Lynbrook Fire Department, school PTA, the Police Benevolent Association, the Kiwanis Club, and Brittany’s Baskets of Hope.

Where: Now in its 17th year at Harry Chapin Chapin’s namesake theater in Lakeside Theatre, the park, some 30 musicians Eisenhower Park, will gather with fans on East Meadow Monday, July 18, for “Just Wild About Harry.” Despite the years that have passed since Chapin’s death on the Long Island Expressway en route to his ill-fated performance in Eisenhower Park in July 1981, the man and his music still resonates — especially here on Long Island. In fact, several show regulars were among the crowd, according to Markus, when what was supposed to be a joyous event turned into a vigil. “Harry is so beloved in memory on Long Island,” Markus says. “You don’t have to look too hard to find someone who met him, whose school he did a benefit for, or someone who’s been helped by one of his charities. It’s so meaningful for the music community to come together and, in effect, do the concert he might have given.” And come together they do — year after year. “I never
expected it would go on this long,” Markus says. “It is such a wonderful concert and everyone has a great time, which is a tribute to what a great man Chapin was.” The troubadour’s song catalogue is creatively interpreted by each act, who make it their own, while honoring Chapin. “We’ve had some amazing arrangements, from folky to country, torch-song style to hard rock,” adds Markus. “It’s really interesting to see what they do. I encourage them to make songs fresh. They’re not just reproducing them the way Harry did.” This year’s lineup includes staples of the area’s music community; returnees Roger Street Friedman, Frank Walker, Patricia Shih & Stephen Fricker, Robinson Treacher, Debra Lynne & Lora Kendall, Joe Iadanza, MediaCrime, Judith Zweiman, Martha Trachtenberg, Robin Greenstein, Christine Solimeno, Grand Folk Railroad, and Russ Seeger. They are joined by Markus, who performs with his longtime folk trio Gathering Time, and newcomers country guitarist JD Leonard and the Famous Dr. Scanlon Band, who are popular for their acoustic Americana sound. As is their signature, Markus and Gathering Time will once again perform “Taxi.” “It’s such an epic ballad,” he says, “and his breakthrough song. It’s just a masterwork of songcraft.”
Besides Chapin’s big hits, his lesser works are also given their due, and other favorites, including “Shooting Star” and “Story of a Life.” And, as always, in the true spirit of Harry Chapin, the show concludes with the entire group on stage in a rendition of “Circle,” Chapin’s traditional closing. More than just a concert, the free event involves a food drive. Concertgoers are asked to bring donations of nonperishable items to support Long Island Cares, the regional food bank and humanitarian organization founded by Chapin in 1980. “The annual Harry Chapin tribute concert is always a very special event for all of us at Long Island Cares because so many of Harry’s fans attend and are extremely supportive of Long Island Cares and the work we do to assist the more than 316,000 Long Islanders struggling with domestic hunger and high food insecurity,” Paule Pachter, the organization’s chief executive officer, said in a statement. The concert, held rain or shine, will be livestreamed on Facebook. Photos courtesy Robert Berkowitz, RSB ImageWorks

Various members of the McQuade family and friends gathered to commemorate the centennial.
Birthdays that bring whole community out marks the centennial of the births of Francis J. McQuade and of Carthene McQuade; therefore, the Village Board of East Rockaway, New York, issues this proclamation to commemorate the birth centennials of Francis J. McQuade and Carthene McQuade.” Francis X. McQuade, eldest son and
lawyer remarked, “We recall the fun we had at Memorial Park growing up, and see Memorial Park as the site of so many important events in the Village history.” The McQuade Family donated a memorial tree planted at Memorial Park in honor of the birth centennial. “It’s proper that the tree was planted in the place where we walk through a thou-

sand times a year,” said Francis X. McQuade. The McQuades cared about their community and the people who made up the town. The pair progressed from being involved in St. Raymond’s Church to coaching numerous sports and even serving on the school board.
Francis X. McQuade reflected on the types of traditions instilled in him that he wishes to carry on. “Well, closeness to God. For sure, civic activity, not to just sit on your hands and wait for someone else to do it,” he said, “You know we can’t change the world, but we certainly can help the neighborhood, help the village.”

Q. We have been looking for real wood kitchen cabinets, and they really run the whole spectrum, from semi-reasonable to very expensive. A salesman told us that well-made cabinets and doors cost more because they’re made better, with more pieces fit together instead of from single panels. He told us that we’ll regret picking the cheaper doors, saying they won’t last. I know that over the years, our closet doors bind up from the changes in humidity, but is it really a significant cause to have to buy more expensive cabinets?
Wantagh
Spectacular- New To Market!
A. Yes. The most important factor when selecting materials for any type of construction, whether it’s a building or a cabinet, is to keep in mind that everything has movement, both internal and external. As I have written many times, wood was once the center of a tree, never intended in nature to be cut up and exposed. Once the wood is onte eeper taken from the heart of a tree, it begins to change shape based on temperature and moisture content. Wood that is intended for structural use, like a common 2 x 4 wall stud, is typically dried to about 19 percent moisture content. This is done by laying the lumber outdoors in a covered area. Indoor lumber products are kiln dried to around 8 percent to balance out with indoor humidity, but the wood will not just stay at that moisture level. As the seasons change, wood products continue to adjust to the humidity they are subjected to. It used to be that craftsmen let the finish trim moldings remain stored indoors, on site, to adjust to their final indoor installation. Unfortunately, most people are in a hurry to get the job done, and move on so the wood doesn’t get the chance to acclimate. Every so often I am asked to explain why there is cracking in sheetrock at corners or around doors. Most of the time, people suspect that it’s a structural problem, when it actually is the twisting and expansion or contraction of lumber that still has a different moisture level than the building. The dynamic movement can split the lumber and crack the walls easily. The same kind of movement can occur in cabinet doors, so to adjust for this internal movement, doors are often configured with what is referred to as “rails and styles” surrounding the center panel. A well-crafted cabinet door will have movement if you place your hand on the center panel and move it up or down or side to side. The movement allows the door panel to expand or contract without binding, twisting or warping. Many doors imitate the look of multi-part doors, but are routed panels made from a single board. This kind of door can warp from typical moisture changes in a kitchen, from boiling water on a stove, a cross breeze on a summer day or when the heat comes on and the house gets dry. Good luck!

he summer is well under way and, happily, the U.S. Congress has gone home. While in D.C., they didn’t do much beyond a watered-down gun-control bill, with lots of other critical issues pending. With Washington quiet, all the action shifts to Fulton County, Georgia, where a grand jury may decide the fate of everyone from former President Donald Trump to other big names like Sen. Lindsey Graham and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani. Some people JERRY imagine that any county down KREMER South is a small municipality with a sheriff who spends most of his time chasing speeding cars driven by Northeasterners. According to Wikipedia, Fulton County had the sad distinction of having 35 lynchings from 1877 to 1950, but today it is a large and bustling metropolitan area, encompassing most of Atlanta and 15 other cities. It has a population of over 1 million, very much like Nassau
A
and Suffolk counties. Fulton County is named after Robert Fulton, the creator of the steamboat. It is home to such enterprises as Coca Cola, AT&T, Equifax, EarthLink, Cox Communications, Porsche Cars of North America and Wendy’s/ Arbys. Cases of major magnitude are heard in its county courthouse, and the grand jury that has been impaneled to hear the Trump election charges is composed of jurors from all walks of life. For the past month, the Jan 6 congressional committee has been airing evidence on the insurrection, with numerous witnesses who have offered some headline-grabbing testimony about Trump’s actions on that fateful day. But no one knows whether the committee will make any criminal referrals to Attorney General Merrick Garland. And even if does single out the former president and his cohorts, it isn’t certain that Garland will take any action. Meanwhile, New York state Attorney General Letitia James is pursuing civil allegations against the former president and members of his family. She has dog-
T
gedly gone after the Trump organization’s accountants and appraisers, along with present and former employees. It is possible that James will start a major civil suit against all of the Trump enterprises and family, but that would have no immediate criminal consequences. So the real action is taking place in front a panel of grand jurors in Georgia who can indict anyone who they believe has committed a state crime relating to the 2020 election. Last month they heard from Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, who undoubtedly testified about his now famous conversations with Trump in which he was asked to “find” 11,780 votes. In addition, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is seeking the testimony of Giuliani and Graham. Guliani testified at numerous Georgia hearings, claiming that the state’s election returns were fraudulent. Graham called the Secretary of State asking about absentee ballots, with the clear inference that those ballots might be fraudulent as well. To date, there have been a small num-
he real action is taking place in front of a panel of Fulton County grand jurors.
ber of possible witnesses mentioned, but Willis has made it clear that she will call many people in the Trump orbit who made similar claims about the Georgia results. Some of those potential witnesses will challenge the subpoenas they’ve received, but it is almost certain that Georgia courts will deny those efforts and force them to appear and testify. Most of the American public’s attention has been focused on the Jan 6 committee hearings, and there is no doubt that in the coming weeks, there will be more testimony that may have an impact on Trump’s future political dreams, but nothing will emerge that will lead to any immediate criminal indictments. But Fulton County Court may be where a parade of well-known political names, including Trump himself, could face election-tampering charges. History is made regularly in Washington, but a grand jury in Georgia may make some national history of its own. Jerry Kremer was a state assemblyman for 23 years, and chaired the Assembly’s Ways and Means Committee for 12 years. He now heads Empire Government Strategies, a business development and legislative strategy firm. Comments about this column? JKremer@liherald.com.
Come along with me on a trip Down East
re you traveling for real, or from your laptop? So many of us, passionate about getting up and going, have been making do with travel brochures and virtual tours these past two-plus years. Some folks who spent a lifetime saving for a special adventure or retirement trip are still waiting for it to be safe enough. On the scale of problems people are facing these days, travel plans pale, but taking to the road is still one of life’s abiding joys. Over the years, you have jourRAnDi neyed with me KREiss around the world. Whether or not you are travelers yourselves, if you turned to this page, you have visited dozens of countries, from Australia to Abu Dhabi to Tanzania to New Zealand to South Africa. And I’m not hanging up my traveling shoes just yet. I am, however, staying stateside these days. The amalgam of unmasked crowds, canceled flights, war in Ukraine and concerns about getting sick in foreign lands has fixed our GPS to the USA.
If I wrote an essay called “What I Learned During the Coronavirus Pandemic,” it would emphasize traveling light and being ready to change plans. Our plan this summer was to go to Maine, and so here we are. We picked three locations, and various Airbnbs. I write now from Kennebunkport, which is a first-time visit for us, “us” being my husband and me and Lillybee, the traveling dog. We’re in a small, 200-year-old house that has been beautifully kept and updated with lots of modern conveniences, including a tricked-out cook’s kitchen. It also has an old, narrow, steep stairway to the second floor, uneven floorboards, creaking banisters, low ceilings, and bells on the porch that move in the wind. This is a little strange, I know, but this house wrapped its arms around me immediately. We’ve stayed in lots of rental places, but this is a unique feeling, as if I could just stay forever. I imagine there are ghosts in the evening, and I say, welcome, sit by me, tell me your stories. We are walking every day, and finding lobsters to eat, and chatting with the
F
locals when we can. We visited a local monastery, and found paths along the harbor that offered stunning seaside views. At the house, I can sit out back and read my books or do a crossword puzzle. The main tourist area is mobbed, and was crazy busy over the Fourth, but in general, the vibe is laid back.0 Yesterday we booked a day sailing trip. The ocean was rolling as we passed the Bush compound known as Walker’s Point. The Texas flag was flying under the American flag, which everyone here knows means the former president is in residence. Seals were bobbing just off the rocks. It looked picture-perfect, and it was — and, like a picture, it was all surface. Unbidden, intrusive thoughts rumbled through my head, like the problems of 43’s presidency, and his wars, and the misery of today’s politics, just an iPhone notification away. The world is always there, even on holiday. Even in a glorious moment. We know we are lucky to have this getaway in a place that feels safe and close to nature and accessible to various kids and grandkids who may show up along
alling in love with a 200-year-old house where it’s easy to imagine ghosts.
the way. In the kids department, all the plans have changed many times due to Covid and Covid and Covid, as one after the other got sick and had to rebook. We roll with the changes; this is the lesson of the pandemic. I confess to complicated feelings about the dozens of large, ornate historic summer “cottages” owned by people who come to Kennebunkport for brief stays in the hot weather. Like Newport. Like the Hamptons. Like the reverse in Palm Beach and Palm Springs. Some owners come for only a week or two. These outsized homes sit on vast parcels of land along the shore. They require enormous upkeep. These Kennebunkport beauties are a slice of history; some estates are owned by families who built them more than 100 years ago. We tourists have a role to play. We bring cash, but some bring trash. I know we are outsiders looking in, and we try to behave ourselves; it is our good fortune to visit this community for a time. The weather has been grand for a state that is notorious for foul, wet, chilly days, even in summer (which is said to be one week in July). It has been in the 70s and sunny, with a side of lobstah.

here are few sounds that can paint a more vivid picture than the ominous and simple theme created by composer John Williams for the 1975 film “Jaws.” If beachgoers weren’t afraid of sharks before Steven Spielberg released that thriller, they were after. Yet despite recent attacks off Long Island beaches, sharks aren’t something we should lose sleep over. Not that we can dismiss these encounters — they are dangerous, and something we must pay attention to. The injuries, and the potential for deaths, are very real. But at the same time, we can’t decide to cut the beach out of our summer plans with the discovery that the ocean does indeed include wildlife — and some varieties that might not take too kindly to swimmers. Shark bites are rare. Very rare. Last year, the Florida Museum of Natural History tracked 73 unprovoked shark bites on people, with more than half of them in the United States. Nine lives were lost to sharks in unprovoked attacks worldwide, and just one here in America. That’s in line with the past five years of data, including 2020, when the coronavirus pandemic lockdown reduced attacks significantly. On Long Island, a shark attack was
something we’d talk about every 10 years or so, despite well over 1,000 miles of shoreline. But that has changed in recent years — and, according to experts, it will continue to change. Christopher Paparo, who manages Stony Brook University’s Marine Sciences Center, told reporters that there are not only sharks off Long Island’s coast, but also whales and dolphins. But weren’t they always there? No, actually. The population of all three has grown dramatically in recent years — all up from virtually nonexistent in the 1960s. That’s good news for the environment, even if it’s not so good for beachgoers. But that doesn’t mean people and sharks still can’t co-exist. It does mean much more diligence, and following some simple advice from the Florida museum, which has made sharks its focus for many years. For example, swim with a buddy, since sharks are more likely to attack people alone in the water. Stay close to shore, and be extra careful near sandbars or steep drop-offs, since sharks like those areas. Swim during the day, and avoid low-light hours at dawn and dusk, when sharks are typically feeding. Don’t wear shiny jewelry, and avoid areas where there is a lot of fishing. Try not to splash too much, because sharks
can hear the sound, and might think there is food nearby. Sure, “Jaws” and other thrillers have led us to believe that sharks can sense human blood, but there’s no evidence to support that. Still, if you do have an open cut, maybe avoid the water. And if a shark is spotted, don’t race out of the water. Slowly and calmly make your way to the beach. Keep in mind that with 70 or so attacks per year on average, your chances of being attacked by a shark remain extremely low. Your chance of being killed in a car accident is 1 in 84, according to the National Safety Council. Your chance of drowning is 1 in 1,134. Your chance of being struck and killed by lightning is 1 in 79,746. The odds of being fatally wounded in an unprovoked shark attack? 1 in 3.7 million. So grab your towel and your suntan lotion. Bring something to eat and plenty to drink. It’s summer, and the beaches are calling your name. There will always be dangers out there. But vigilance is key. Drive carefully. Swim with a friend. If you see threatening skies, take cover. And don’t panic if a shark shows up. Stay safe, and enjoy the water.

letters More delays for delivery of new LIRR electric cars To the Editor: The most recent announced additional delays associated with the Long Island Rail Road’s $734 million procurement of 202 new M9 electric replacement cars — a contract originally awarded in 2013 — is nothing new. When has there ever been any MTA LIRR, Metro North or NYC Transit Federal Transit Administration or locally funded commuter rail or subway car procurement completed on time, within budget and without contract change orders? Ongoing problems with this purchase have continued for years. In 2020, the MTA’s own independent engineering consultant forecast an October 2022 completion date. The LIRR was more optimistic about meeting an earlier date. Over time, both were proven wrong. The LIRR now promises that all 202 of the cars will be delivered by September 2023. This new 17-month delay, on top of the previous ones, will result in the completion of all deliveries three years later than promised. And who can guarantee that the
vendor will meet this latest schedule’s September 2023 date? The oldest M3 cars scheduled to be replaced will continue in service far longer than planned before all new cars arrive and are ready for com-
muters to board. As a result, the LIRR will incur additional maintenance and operating costs to keep this outdated equipment working beyond its intended useful service life. Instead of being retired, too many M3 cars

he right-wing majority on the Supreme Court has now issued decisions overturning abortion rights, weakening the wall of separation between church and state, limiting state and local firearm regulation, and interfering with federal Environmental Protection Agency regulation of climate-altering, coal-burning power plants. In a concurring opinion in the anti-abortion Dobbs decision, Justice Clarence Thomas laid out the goals of the right-wing judges. According to ALAN Thomas, “In future cases, we SINGER should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents.” The right-wing group, including the three Trump appointees, seems determined to eliminate all protection for the personal right to intimacy and privacy and fundamental legal protections. This is the world of the dystopian novels “1984” and “The Handmaid’s Tale” — steps toward dismantling democracy and human rights and imposing the justices’ religious beliefs on the rest of the population. When similar things happen in the Islamic world, the United States is quick to denounce Sharia law.
Blue states and the federal government must find ways to skirt the Supreme Court majority. Here are some suggestions. ■ Treat guns like cars. Cars are registered and inspected annually. Drivers are tested and licensed. Just as they do with cars and trucks, states and the federal gover nment should require that all gun owners be tested and licensed and insure their weapons, with steeper costs for automatic weapons and those that will be carried concealed in public places, and the highest cost for military-style weapons. Vehicles are taxed to support road maintenance and policing. Tax gun ownership as well.

Green economy ‘is still decades away’ To the Editor: To the surprise of many, the European Parliament gave final approval on July 6 to a new policy that will allow some nuclear and natural gas energy projects to qualify as “green” for access to low-interest loans and some state subsidies. The new law will include qualifying projects on the EU’s list of environmentally sustainable economic activities, those that
■ To protect access to abortion for women living in states with Republican-controlled governments, we need to learn lessons from the anti-slavery campaigns of the 19th century. Underground railroads can take women to states and cities where health services, including abortions, will be provided free of cost. Constitutionally, at least as of now, states cannot charge women or health providers with crimes that did not occur under their jurisdiction.
ncluding ‘underground railroads’ to take women to states where abortion is legal.
■ Treat air pollution like any other toxic waste. If states and companies do not stop pollution from coal-fired power plants and the EPA is prevented from regulating them, the federal government should just order them shut down as health risks. If that doesn’t work, charge them for using the air as a waste dump. Meanwhile, neighboring states should sue the state governments and companies in bordering states for damaging their environments, and bill them for the medical expenses incurred by their citizens. Individuals can also join in class-

action suits. This has worked against other toxic polluters. Flooded communities can flood the courts, charging polluters with adding to destructive climate change.
Public and private postal services, email, social media and the Internet can all be used to flood red states with the information women need to know. Underground railroads will also have to work in reverse, sending pregnancy-ending medication, and possibly even birth control, into states that deny women reproductive freedom. Expect red states to pass new legislation outlawing all of these behaviors. Blue state governments will need to ignore these laws and protect their citizens from red state legal action, including refusing to extradite them. Shoring up the wall of separation
between church and state will be difficult and meet local resistance, but it isn’t impossible. The Supreme Court ruled that government funds and programs provided to secular private schools cannot be denied to religious schools. The best way to block government subsidies of religious schools is to eliminate such subsidies, as well as vouchers, tuition remission, tax breaks, and direct aid, to all private schools. This would also put a stop to the promotion of private schools to avoid school integration and the underfunding of public education. Another strategy is to require that any schools that accept public funds fully comply with all civil rights diversity, equity and inclusion requirements, including the rights of members of the LGBTQ+ community. It will not be easy to counter the rightwing, ideological Supreme Court majority that is attemting to rewrite the U.S. Constitution, but strategies like these can be employed until we have a new Supreme Court.

will both help solve Europe’s current energy crisis and help meet its energy targets for 2030. Apparently the politically correct “narrative” of being anti-tech is more important than scientific fact when it comes to nuclear power and fossil fuels. Meanwhile, the U.S., the world’s most advanced country, has built neither a nuclear reactor nor a new oil refinery in over 50 years! Reality is finally setting in Europe as the fantasy of going totally green meets reality. Without oil/gas, how do we power tens of thousands of commercial trucks, container ships, non-electric railroad lines, airplanes, helicopters, farm equipment? How do we produce fertilizer, insecticides, lubricants, plastics, many chemicals and even clothing materials? The fact is, a totally green, renewable economy is still decades away. now if only the environmentalists and this administration would finally admit the truth and adjust to the reality of our current situation. We should and must follow the pragmatic leadership of the EU and seriously rethink our national energy policies. LoU DEHoLCzER Bronx
