DAVID DONOVAN HOSTED his third HurriCon event Nov. 13 to raise money for Bethany Congregational Church. More than 100 people — and a couple of superheroes — attended.

‘Everyone is welcome there’

HurriCon fundraiser benefits Bethany Church By MIKE SMOLLINS msmollins@liherald.com

When his church needed his support three years ago, David Donovan turned to one of his biggest passions — comic books — to help it by coming up with the HurriCon convention fundraiser. The event has since grown every year, helping support Bethany Congregational Church in East Rockaway. In the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, Bethany opened

its doors as a relief center for those in need. In the six months that people came to its gymnasium to drop off and collect donations, the floor was heavily damaged and needed repairs. During Sandy, the Grant Avenue Firehouse served as a refuge for people in need, but once the donations kept growing, Bethany leaders of fered the church as a drop-off site. With the storm spreading a mix of dirt, oil and sewage outside, people dragged it all in on

their shoes as donations from the Red Cross and United Way came pouring in. In 2018, with the help of his wife, Linda, Donovan hosted a comic book convention, which raised enough money to pay for half of the new floor. The church, built in 1885, still needs several upgrades, so Donovan has made the event an annual outing (excluding last year because of the coronavirus pandemic), and the third one CONTINUED ON PAGE 11

The naming ceremony was held at a critical project milestone, immediately before the first MTBM is lowered into a shaft to commence microtunneling to advance the Bay Park Conveyance Project, a partnership between New York state and the Nassau County Department of Public Works to improve water quality and storm resiliency in Long Island’s Western Bays by upgrading existing wastewater management infrastructure. “The naming of the MTBMs is such a momentous and fun occasion for our project,” Nassau County Executive Laura

Curran said, according to a news release. “Not only does it show our commitment to partnering with our communities, it also showcases the innovative and intelligent minds of our next generation. I am so proud of our students. We received 11 submissions and each one was creative, unique and extremely well thought out.” The practice of assigning a name to a MTBM is a widespread engineering tradition from the 16th century, when miners looked to St. Barbara, patron saint of artillerymen and miners, for protection as they worked underground. Today, naming a MTBM in advance of construction is seen as a sign of good luck for the proj-

ect ahead. Thirty-five students from six schools participated in the contest. MARSH-MELLOW will soon be lowered into the ground at Bay Park Shaft 2, where it will be assembled in preparation for microtunneling. The Bay Park Conveyance Project will reduce nitrogen pollution in the Western Bays by redirecting treated water from the South Shore Water Reclamation Facility to the Cedar Creek Water Pollution Control Plant on the Wantagh-Seaford boarder. From there, the treated water will be discharged about three miles offshore in the Atlantic Ocean via an ocean outfall pipe. A new pump station will be constructed at the existing South Shore Water Reclamation Facility The Project includes two microtunneling segments, one extending two miles on the west side from the South Shore WRF to Sunrise Highway, and another extending more than one and a half miles on the east side from Sunrise Highway to the Cedar Creek plant. The project is also repurposing over seven miles of an existing aqueduct beneath Sunrise Highway, using a technique known as sliplining. Western Bays Constructors Joint-Venture is the design-builder for the Bay Park Conveyance Project. Project work began in March 2021, and it is expected to be complete in 2024.

Lybrook F.D.’s new fire truck christened By STEVE GROGAN lyn-ereditor@liherald.com

Members of Engine Company 1 on Carpenter Avenue introduced their new 2021 Spartan pumper fire truck on Sunday. During a ceremony on the closed street in front of the firehouse, firefighters from Lynbrook and surrounding departments heard brief talks about the work that went into designing the new pumper from members of Engine Company. Chief John Donald also spoke, as did Lynbrook Mayor Alan Beach, Congresswoman Judy Griffin and Hempstead

Town Councilman Anthony D’Esposito, along with Deacon Kevin McCormick of Our Lady of Peace Church, who provided the invocation and blessed the new pumper with holy water. At the end of the ceremony, attendees moved away as water from Engine Company’s 1927Aherns-Fox pumper, their first motorized pumper, as well as Lynbrook’s tower ladder and a pumper from Rockville Centre’s Defenders Company, poured streams of water over and on the new pumper. Engine Company, which erected a tent over its front ramp, served food and attendees listened to music by the East Rockaway band, the Stitch.

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and Nassau County recently announced the winners of a contest to name the two microtunnel boring machines that are being deployed to advance the Bay Park Conveyance Project. Students in sixth through eighth grade attending schools in the project corridor were invited to submit essays or short videos with proposed names inspired by local historical figures, the environment or geography. The winning names are: MARSH-MELLOW, submitted by Sofia Arata, Peter DeMarco, Haiden Deodat, Thomas Doolan, Oliver Feinstein, Leo Hanratty, Brody Lucas, Gabriella Nettuno, and Nicholas Peña from Sheila Gunther’s sixth-grade class at Fulton Avenue Elementary School, Oceanside School No. 8. MARSH-MELLOW emphasizes the words marsh and mellow to highlight unity and connection. Marsh refers to the marshlands of Bay Park, while mellow emphasizes how the project will protect the Bay’s natural ecosystems.

Sinai shuts down L.B. Emergency Dept. Officials cited nursing staff shortages as the cause The Emergency Department in Long Beach operated by Mount Sinai South Nassau will be closed temporarily as of 3 p.m. on Monday due to nursing staff shortages occurring as a result of the state vaccine mandate. The decision to temporarily close the facility was made after all other options were exhausted. Patients from the barrier island in need of emergency care will be directed to the hospital’s main campus in Oceanside. An ambulance will be stationed around the clock at the closed Long Beach Emergency Department for the duration of the closure. The New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) was notified of the need to close the free-standing Long Beach Emergency Department (LBED) on Friday and granted verbal approval. Mount Sinai South Nassau has submitted a formal closure plan to the NYSDOH. The closure will continue for up to four weeks and could be extended depending on staff availability. The staffing shortage and closure of the LBED is a result of the Hospital’s compliance with the NYSDOH’s mandate issued Thursday, requiring the suspension of all staff working under temporary religious exemptions who could not show proof today of receiving a first dose of COVID-19 vaccination or a valid medical exemption from receiving it. More than 99 percent of Mount Sinai South Nassau’s staff are fully vaccinated, not counting those who sought religious or medical exemptions. MSSN is actively recruiting experienced and qualified staff who can document either a first dose COVID-19 vaccination or a valid medical exemption so that it can resume full operations of the Long Beach Emergency Department on or about December 15, 2021.

“We regret having to take this step, but the safety of our patients is always our No. 1 priority,” said Adhi Sharma, President. “This will allow us to shift nursing staff to the Oceanside campus to ensure that we maintain adequate staffing at the Emergency Department at our main campus.” “We are committed to serving residents of the barrier island,” Dr. Sharma said. “This closure should not be interpreted as anything beyond what it is – a temporary measure designed to relieve current staffing challenges in our Emergency Department. Our nurses, physicians and support staff have been on the frontlines of the pandemic for more than 21 months. We will continue to be there for our patients.” The Emergency Department in Oceanside is one of the busiest in Nassau CounCourtesy Mount Sinai South Nassau ty and is a Trauma Center designated facility.

Isles fans raise the roof on their new ‘Barn’ UBS Arena opening ends a 20-year battle for team’s home base By Tom Carrozza tcarrozza@liherald.com

Islanders fans from across Long Island made the pilgrimage on Saturday to the team’s new home at UBS Arena in Elmont. Despite a disappointing game result — the Islanders lost to the Calgary Flames 5-2 — fans were elated to finally have a home for their favorite hockey team after years of uncertainty, recreating the exuberant cheering that so defined games at Nassau Coliseum, known affectionately as “The Barn.” The $1.1 billion arena at Belmont Park already means a great deal to fans who have watched the team through years when the Nassau Coliseum fell into disrepair and the Barclays Center in Brooklyn offered obstructed seating. The fanbase survived rumors of the team’s move to Quebec City or Kansas City in the 1990s and 2000s and has STeven finally been Ferraro rewarded with an Islanders fan arena that pays homage to both them and the players of yesteryear. “I’m 26 years old, and I’ve been waiting my entire life to see this building open,” Steven Ferraro, of Rockville Centre, said. “It was the Lighthouse and then whatever after, but the [new] building [is] absolutely fantastic, just gorgeous.” Ferraro said his favorite aspect of the structure so far is the Heineken Terrace above the main entrance, saying it’s unusual to have clublike atmosphere at a hockey game. The late John Kempf was remembered at the game by his wife and son, Christine and Sean Kempf, who carried around a cardboard cutout of him. A detective in the Suffolk County Police Department, John died in April 2020 after a battle with Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease — a rare degenerative brain disorder. During his tough fight, Kempf got to speak to his all-time favorite Islander, John Tonnelli, on the phone. “It means everything to be here,” Sean Kempf said. “[My father] was a lifelong fan, and he passed that down to us.” Sean also said that his father was a huge fan of both Zach Parise and Zdeno Chara and would have been blown away if he had seen them both acquired by the Islanders in the off-season. Mark Martinez, of Levittown, said he became an Islanders fan along with his school friends when the team visited Summit Lane Elementary School when they were children. “When we were little, tickets were cheap and we would go to every game, and now we still go to every game. It’s a part of our friendship now,” Martinez said. In the upper deck, signs with the logos of Islanders fan meetup groups from San

Diego to the United Kingdom were placed above the raucous Section 329 crowd. The section, carried over from the Coliseum, serenades the team with soccer-style chants and drum playing throughout the game. The much-touted low roof of the building traps the noise, giving amazing moments like when the crowd sang along with Nicole Raviv during the national anthem. There were glimpses of what the atmosphere can be like when the team gets going, like when Richard Panik laid the first big hit or when the referees announced Brock Nelson’s first goal. Superfans Jake Basile and Nicholas Constantinidis, from Plainview, came to the game carrying cardboard cutouts of Islanders defenseman Adam Pelech’s face.

UBS Arena opens Nov. 20 to much fanfare years ago, now even selling merchandise to the over 8,000 followers of their Instagram page, “Bathtubjake.” “A lot of guys from the Barn days were kind of concerned about this not being home, but it really felt like it tonight,” Basile said. “This is genuinely a dream come true. It’s so surreal. The atmosphere was great. Not the result we wanted from the game, but the arena was absolutely amazing,” Constantinidis said. “It

felt like this is ours, this is our amazing, 21st-century arena. We finally joined the club.” Co-owner Jon Ledecky, who purchased the team with business partner Scott Malkin in 2016, spoke to and took pictures with fans outside the arena before the game. “You can hear the fans are so excited and they’re saying, ‘Thank you,’ which is great, but we’re saying it back, because without them and their support, this building doesn’t happen,” Ledecky said.

HurriCon supports Bethany Church people from the community in,” he said. “We did better than we thought in terms of raising money, which we always need. It was a wonderful event, and after the pandemic and everything, to get all these great artists in, mostly local, but all of them great, we really enjoyed it.” The event also featured a “walking taco,” which Donovan described as a taco in a bag, and one parishioner brought homemade seafood bisque for attendees to enjoy. Church volunteers helped collect donations at the door, prepare food and organize raffles. Donovan said his favorite comic book characters include Batman, the Ninja Turtles, The Thing, Ben Grimm the Flaming Carrot, an independent character, and Reed Flemming, who is “the world’s toughest milkman.” He added that he hoped to continue to make HurriCon an annual and welcoming event. “When I went to comic conventions in the ‘70s in Manhattan, we were a very small group and we were kind of an outcast group,” Donovan recalled. “Now, fast forward how many years, the comic community has exploded. It’s in all types of media. It’s the biggest films and some of the biggest television shows. What I’ve tried to accomplish with HurriCon is to make it an inclusive thing. Everyone is welcome there.”

HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE browsed comic books, artwork and more at the third HurrCon to support Bethany Congregational Church. JOHN HARTT, AN East Rockaway High School alumnus and a pop-up artist from Virginia, left, was one of 32 vendors.

on Nov. 13 raised more funds than the previous two. “The relief center benefitted the people in the area during Sandy,” Donovan said, “so my main job was to get the word out to them that Bethany was there for you and now Bethany needs some help, so come out and support Bethany. There were a lot of people from the local community there. Without the support of the community, the show wouldn’t be successful at all.” Donovan, 61, said he has collected comics since he was in his early teens. He has been a parishioner at Bethany for more than 50 years. He was confirmed at the church, has taught Sunday school classes there and was the editor of the Bell Tower Bethany newsletter for many years. Donovan has also been a church moderator, preacher and reader, and is now on its board of trustees. He lived in East Rockaway for most of his life and graduated from Rhame Avenue Elementary School and East Rockaway High, and though he now lives in Rockville Centre, the church still plays a major role in his life. HurriCon featured 32 vendors and several special guests. Donovan said more than 100 people came to the show, and there was an influx of visitors all day. The vendors sold comics, action figures, books, artwork, Funko Pops and more. Guests included John Hartt, an East Rockaway alumnus and pop-up artist from Virginia; Keith Williams, an artist for DC and Marvel comics; Michael Jan Friedman, a Star Trek novelist and writer for DC Comics; and Sean Jackson, who has created books of hand-drawn mazes, including his newest creation, “Star Wars Mazes,” which features mazes based on film scenes. Bethany charged a $5 admission for the event, and children who wore costumes got in free. The church also fundraised by selling tables for vendors. While Donovan did not disclose how much was raised, he said the funds would help Bethany fund window and painting upgrades, as well as other renovations. The Rev. Mark Lukens lauded Donovan for creating the event, and said he spreads good will and is humorous. “It was a lot of fun, and we had a lot of

November 25, 2021 — LYNBROOK/EAST ROCKAWAY HERALD

By RABBI DAVID LERNER Hanukkah is a holiday which celebrates the triumph of courage over fear, faith over despair, light over darkness. It stems from a story of an ancient people living in Judea (modern-day Israel) through very desperate and oppressive conditions, particularly in the realm of religious practice. Jewish traditional living was central to society and social identity at the time but became outlawed when King Antiochus Epiphanes took the reins of power of the occupying Seleucid Empire of Syria. This drastic development, around the second century BCE, led to much repression and fear — religious identity had to be stifled under the threat of severe punishment. In addition, and certainly as result of this environment, the broader social fabric was being torn apart. But the darkness of persecution and forces of division did not exist for long. There was the deep-seeded spirit of freedom that drove a will to outlast and defeat this painful, yet temporary, dark point in history. Hanukkah teaches that even at some of the worst times, the human capacity for hope, faith, and light are truly remarkable. And, spoiler alert, the small Jewish army of the Maccabees, which started out as a group of only 70 priests according to tradition, drove out King Antiochus’ occupying army of 500,000 welltrained soldiers. This is one of the great miracles we recall on Hanukkah, which teaches of the great capac-

LYNBROOK/EAST ROCKAWAY HERALD — November 25, 2021

This Hanukkah, let’s try to see the light in the world ity of even a small amount of light to dispel great darkness. This idea is followed up by the second miracle of Hanukkah, which occurred when the Maccabees entered the defiled Temple to find only a single flask of oil, which was needed to kindle the menorah (the ritual candelabra) which was required as a daily practice. Well, this single flask, instead of only burning for one day, burned instead for eight days. Hanukkah always occurs during the time of year when the days are shortest, and nights are longest — darkness is at its peak in the world. The symbolism of lighting the menorah empowers us as humanity to use our agency, to shine whatever flask of oil we have to make the world a little brighter. For even though the darkness at times seems overwhelming, it certainly was for the Maccabees, I recall a teaching from one of my favorite rabbis who just recently died, Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, which I feel is quite relevant to our present time: “There always were two ways to live in a world that is often dark and full of tears. We can curse the darkness, or we can light a light, and as the Chassidim say, a little light drives out much darkness. May we all help light up the world.” May we all have a joyous, bright, and healthy holiday season. Courtesy Rabbi David Lerner

Ruiz added that she was proud of hiring a “top-notch administrative team and highly-qualified teachers,” as well as helping to identify projects that were included in the $27.7 million bond referendum that voters approved in November 2019, which funded upgrades and repairs to all three district buildings and included a long-awaited new athletic field at the high school. “One of our greatest accomplishments was to improve the facilities and in particular the athletic field, and the [heating, ventilation and air conditioning] systems for all three buildings,” Ruiz said, “because those improvements will be enjoyed by the community for many years to come, and our community and our students deserved to have a state-of-the-art facility.” Additionally, Ruiz helped increase Advanced Placement and dual enrollment college course offerings, and brought upgrades and innovations to the district’s educational technology initiatives. She also helped oversee passage of all budgets during her tenure,

with two coming in under the tax cap. Board of Education President Kristen O’Hagan said Ruiz has made a major impact on the district in her time there. “We would like to congratulate Superintendent Ruiz on the announcement of her retirement,” she said. “We are thankful that she continued to lead the district after the challenges of Covid-19 as we continue to ease back into normalcy. Retirement is a time to look back with pride on achievements. After nine years at the helm, Superintendent Ruiz has so many accomplishments to be proud of.” O’Hagan said the board would begin discussing plans to hire the next superintendent in December, when it will start to develop a vision for the next superintendent and create a timeline for the search’s progress. She added that the board plans to provide updates on the search at its monthly meetings. Ruiz said she hoped her successor would build on the systems and structures put in place during her tenure, and student-focused decision-making would continue. She noted that she believed more could still be done in the future, and she hoped the next superin-

tendent would continue to offer vocational and technical education courses and opportunities for students. In retirement, Ruiz said, she plans to spend more time with her husband, Carlos; her children, Alan, Meagan, Andrew and Alex; and her granddaughter, Sophia. She also plans to travel, volunteer and work in some capacity in education. She said she was grateful to the school board and proud to be a part of the community for nearly a decade.. “I feel it’s been a very rich and fulfilling experience to work in such a caring and supportive community,” Ruiz said. “I’ve had the opportunity to meet wonderful people, and that will stay with me forever. This is a very unique and special community, and it was the most fulfilling role I’ve had in my 40-odd years of education.”

Specializing in: • Interior/Exterior Painting • Kitchens Cabinets • Deck Renovations

A. There is a lot of misinformation and misunderstanding about levels of purification and, depending on the source of the information, like an advertisement instead of research reports, the facts are unclear. I couldn’t tell anyone, definitively, what works best, or even the specifics as to why, only that there are systems that are required and units that do have benefits for employers onte eeper and homeowners, according to industry reports. For example, it almost always comes up during the design phase of offices and retail spaces that the owner wants to put in a bottled-water cooler instead of a drinking fountain, but the plumbing code, which is a law, states that two drinking fountains or a dual unit, the high and low kind, are required to be installed. (The reason for the low drinking fountain is to avoid discrimination, along with many other regulations, in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, signed into federal law by President George H.W. Bush in 1990.) A bottle station is nice to have but not required. Water purification will be a healthy solution for your employees and family, since it removes chlorine, sediments and multiple trace minerals. There are many different types of purifiers on the market. For commercial purposes, consider a cartridge-type purifier specific to your commercial space, and for a residence, a whole-house system such as the ones from PurifiedSolutions.net, which use a seven-stage reverse-osmosis process. Just remember, these systems all require the replacement of filters, so factor in replacement costs so you aren’t surprised later. As for the bigger question, air purification, it is a much broader and more questionable issue, since different systems filter air in different ways, and even though advertisements tout all the wonderful particulates that can be removed, virus particles aren’t necessarily one of them. Smoke from cigarettes and dust have a much larger mass, and are more easily removed with high-efficiency particulate air, or HEPA, filters than bacterial or viral-laden particles. Even though microscopic-sized allergens can be removed, unless they are treated with either damaging light or chemical containment, just catching the allergens doesn’t necessarily get rid of them. Make sure you find out what the filtration unit will do from an independent testing source report before spending the money on one. Recent studies do show the workplace benefits for having enhanced ventilation and filtration. Some 90 percent of maintenance costs are for keeping people productive at work, increasing profits by reducing infection, sickness and missed days by employees. Choose systems wisely and it will benefit you. Good luck!

Q. I saw an article in a magazine about how I may be able to add air and water purifiers in my office to minimize sickness and infections. Is this for real? Can air purifiers limit things like Covid, and does it pay to put in a full water purifier instead of just having a bottled-water cooler station, even in my home or in my office (for my employees)?

OPINIONS

he Event,” a 2015 found-footage documentary by Ukrainian director Sergei Loznitsa, opens with black-and-white images of mostly men marching in August 1991 through the streets of Leningrad, in the then Soviet Union, overturning a trailer and grabbing all manner of furniture to erect hastily constructed barricades. Worry was etched on the protesters’ faces. People had assembled in Leningrad’s central Palace Square and surrounding streets to stop an attempted coup d’état that, SCOTT they believed, was radiating from MosBRINTON cow, USSR’s capital, across the land. “The Event” is a hopeful but strangely haunting film that I watched last week on Zoom. Hofstra University’s Department of Comparative Literature, Languages and Linguistics and the History Department presented it, with a panel discussion moderated by Dr. Ben Rifkin, a Hofstra professor of Russian. I wanted to see the film because in August 1991 I was a Peace Corps volunteer stationed in Bulgaria, a Soviet satellite nation for 45 years, from the end of World War II through 1990, when it finally gained its freedom and turned to democracy. I cannot express the

chilling effect the coup attempt had on many Bulgarians, who worried about a sudden return to hardline communism. I wondered what, precisely, had happened in Moscow and other Soviet cities from Aug. 18 to 21, 1991, as the coup unfolded. I had never seen images of it before. The good people of Leningrad were concerned that Soviet Armed Forces tanks might roll against their city, and a sea of tens of thousands of people rallied, placing themselves in mortal danger to preserve the democratic reforms enacted under Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev. The fear of a possible attack on Leningrad was not irrational. Eight communist hardliners calling themselves the Committee on the State of Emergency, and various factions within the Soviet military, were behind the putsch, seeking to halt the impending breakup of the Soviet Union that would give sovereignty to its 15 outlying republics. Soviet tanks, in fact, rolled into Moscow, where tens of thousands of demonstrators stood in their way. Among them was Boris Yeltsin, the man who succeeded Gorbachev as president of Russia when the Soviet Union dissolved in December 1991. I was on a train somewhere outside Sofia, Bulgaria’s capital, with my then fiancée, Katerina, who was born and raised in Sofia, when we first heard the news of the coup attempt. Katerina’s face turned sullen. What

would we do if it succeeded? Most Americans cannot understand the fear of the then Soviet Union that many, if not most, Eastern Europeans carried with them in the backs of their brains. They risked limb and life to secure their freedoms from the USSR in the late 1980s and early ’90s. They stood in solidarity, marching en masse in their capitals’ squares, demanding sovereignty. Then, seemingly in an instant, all their hard-won reforms appeared to be in jeopardy. If Bulgaria lost its newly won democratic freedoms to the communists, would the old-school apparatchiks “cleanse” Bulgaria of any American “sympathizers”? In that case, anyone who had had contact with an American like me would have been in grave danger of just disappearing. These were not wild conspiracy theories. They were valid questions based on nearly five decades of iron-fisted Soviet rule. Katerina and I planned an escape route to the U.S. through Greece if the coup held, which, thankfully, it did not. We were in our mid-20s at the time. We recently celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary, living, peacefully, on Long Island for the past 28 years, returning every few years to Sofia. Bulgaria remains a democracy to this day. The Soviet coup plotters were not especially well organized, according to various

he USSR in 1991 and the U.S. in 2021: similarities I never would’ve imagined.

reports, and most of the SAF military was not a party to the conspiracy. It’s said that the plotters spent most of the three days of the coup drunk. Seven of the eight organizers were imprisoned, and one committed suicide. Ilya Vinitsky, chair of the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures at Princeton University, was among the panelists last week. He was 22 and living in the Soviet Union at the time of the coup. It was a seminal moment in his life, a point of demarcation — there was life before the coup, and after. Now he asks his students, “Have you ever felt you lived through a historical moment?” Yes, I would respond, more than once. Most recently was the disorganized insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, when thousands of pro-Trump rioters besieged our very seat of democracy to try to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election — that is, to attempt to overthrow our nation’s duly elected president, Joe Biden. Having lived through such a coup attempt while in a foreign land, I never imagined one here, particularly not one as violent as that of last January. Democracy is clearly a fragile thing. It requires an active, engaged citizenry that respects the rule of law. If it is not respected, then it must be enforced.

Year of wonder, one Thanksgiving to the next

ast Thanksgiving we dined alone. I’m remembering an over-roasted turkey leg with a side of anxiety for me, a wedge of spinach pie for the vegetarian, hold the Thanksgiving cheer. We tried not to make too much of the day. We were veterans of isolation by then, still months away from our first vaccine. To see our kids and grandkids, someone would have had to risk flying, and the infection rates were daunting. Nevertheless, we watched millions RANDI of people choosing KREISS to travel, weaving through airport lines and hoping for the best. Spikes and surges followed. Sorry for the ruminating, but sometimes you must go back to appreciate how far you’ve come. A few months after Thanksgiving, our son and grandson caught Covid. We missed birthdays, anniversaries, proms and graduations. We were lucky; the nightly news featured Covid crises cascading across the country. Who will ever forget the pictures of refrigerator trucks parked outside New York City hospitals?

Today (and I won’t say fast forward, because it wasn’t), all of us have had vaccines and boosters. We’re all back to our jobs. Kids are back in school. As I swayed from despair to hope and back to trepidation, I coped, and that feels like enough. This Thanksgiving we will sit down with our family to start reweaving the ties that have stretched thin over the months of this pandemic. I have often written about gratitude for the small things that charge our days with interest and pleasure. This year my gratitude is singular, profound and unending. I am so thankful to the researchers and scientists and companies and governments and leaders who took on the virus and dug in for the fight. There were missteps and political machinations and failures along the way, but the development of vaccines, 90-plus percent effective, in only 11 months has been the stunning achievement of our lifetime. When we encountered a novel coronavirus transmitted easily through the air by breathing, talking and coughing, the World Health Organization said it did not expect a vaccine to become available in fewer than 18 months. Many virologists have said that the development of a safe and effective vac-

cine within 11 months was an extraordinary achievement. Please read “A Shot to Save the World,” by Gregory Zuckerman. Zuckerman tells the story of the unlikely heroes who worked together and separately, driven by the mission to find a vaccine. He describes the false starts and missteps, but also all that went right as researchers took on the challenge of their lives. It required unprecedented devotion, selflessness, fierce dedication to the job and a vision of success that transcended any one person’s ambition. It is a thrilling story. One of the salient points Zuckerman addresses is the idea that the new vaccines are too “experimental.” He says these discoveries are not one-day wonders, but blocks of research that came together over many years. They found daylight in the time of the pandemic because of the money and dedication and leadership that supported the effort. The work on AIDS informed this medical moon shot, and the Covid vaccines will inform research going forward. Zuckerman tells the story of Jason Schrum, the Moderna scientist who had worked at the company for only a short time. He came up with the actual modifica-

his year my family will gather again, and my gratitute is profound and unending.

tion to the mRNA molecule that is currently used in Moderna’s vaccine, Zuckerman writes. “That modification is the one that BioNTech uses also. It’s not the one from Katalin Karaka and Drew Weissman at the University of Pennsylvania. They’re really pioneers, and I’m not sure we would have these vaccines without them.” Zuckerman writes that not enough attention has been paid to the Chinese scientist who struggled in the early days of the pandemic to share the genetic sequence of the virus. “The guy’s a hero,” he writes. “He risked so much …” I thank them all, from the doctors and nurses to the supermarket workers to the teachers and parents of young children, to the bench researchers who put in the hours, day after day and month after month. This year at our Thanksgiving, there will be a too-big turkey and stuffing and cranberry sauce. Leaves and grains for the vegetarian. We will hug and kiss our kids and grandkids, feeling safe enough with our jabs and boosters. Then we will feast on my apple cranberry crumble with a topping of gratitude for this country and countries everywhere where scientists are educated, supported and honored for their work.

UBS Arena is a win-win for Long Island

he social media posts generated by Long Islanders at the very first Islanders game at the new UBS Arena, the linchpin in a $1.3 billion transformation of Belmont Park, came fast and furious on Saturday, showing an excitement not seen since the Islanders’ four straight Stanley Cup wins in the early ’80s. The state-of-the-art arena is indeed a crown jewel of the New York metropolitan area sports scene. “Today is a monumental day for New York and the Islanders as we cut the ribbon on the world-class new UBS Arena,” Gov. Kathy Hochul said last week. “This is the first step in the newly redeveloped Belmont Park, which will serve as an internationally recognized destination for sports, entertainment, retail and hospitality.” It was only a few years ago that the

home of the Islanders was a real question mark. The team had moved out of the Nassau Coliseum in the Hub for the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, and Long Island fans largely hated the venue, not only because of the distance they had to travel for games — it could be a four-hour round trip from points out East to Brooklyn and back — but also because the venue was made not for hockey, but for basketball. The new UBS Arena, finished on time and on budget, was constructed specifically for the Islanders, in Elmont, on Nassau County’s border with Queens, making it convenient for hockey fans from both Long Island and New York City. At the same time, the revitalization of Belmont Park is, no doubt, a boon for Long Island. The project, which will also include a 350,000-square-foot entertain-

LIRR, NICE Bus move toward greener future

he Long Island Rail Road and Nassau Inter-County Express Bus are making significant strides to reduce their carbon footprints, with the LIRR testing battery-powered trains on its Oyster Bay branch to replace the diesel locomotives that have rumbled across the North Shore in the past, and NICE planning to bring six electric buses online to replace compressed-natural-gas models. While on the electrified portion of the Oyster Bay branch, the LIRR trains run on the third rail. When they reach the non-electrified portion, they switch to battery power. At the same time that NICE adds the

electric buses, it will switch all 150 vehicles in its paratransit fleet to electric. Excellent! All of this was discussed last Friday during an hour-long talk on public transportation at Vision Long Island’s annual Smart Growth Summit, at the Crest Hollow Country Club in Woodbury. We can only say bravo to Phil Eng, the LIRR president, and Jack Khouz, CEO of NICE Bus, for demonstrating a commitment to the environment by moving away from dirty fossil-fuel transportation to electric rail and bus lines. Diesel trains are especially awful for the environment, using one of the dirtiest of fuels. Diesel is also among the most car-

ment and retail complex, a 250-room hotel and a community center in the future, is expected to create 10,000 jobs and generate $2.7 billion in economic activity when all is said and done. By 2024, the project is projected to sustain 3,200 full-time jobs, produce $858 million in annual economic activity and generate tens of millions of dollars in new yearly tax revenue for the region. We recognize that not everyone in Elmont is happy. Local residents have said they worry about increased traffic caused by the arena. Planners, however, have worked to mitigate traffic, building a new Long Island Rail Road station in Elmont, the first new full-time station in 50 years. Overall, the UBS Arena is a win-win for Long Islanders, whether or not you’re an Islanders fan.

LETTERS Many thanks on Thanksgiving To the Editor: During this season of gratitude, I want to offer my heartfelt thanks to all our neighbors who make helping others a priority in their lives. Whether responding to the devastation caused by the remnants of Hurricane Ida, offering relief after the destructive home fires that occur nearly every day in Nassau and Suffolk counties or supporting others who need extra aid during Covid-19, our neighbors raise their hands to help in countless ways. Every day I am humbled by our Red Cross volunteers who share their time to help the most vulnerable prepare for and recover from life-changing disasters in their communities. And when needed, these selfless people put their lives on hold for weeks to lend a hand far from home after relentless hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico and historic wild-

cinogenic substances on the planet, according to numerous federal agencies. Diesel trains simply shouldn’t exist in the 21st century. The LIRR began testing battery-powered trains on the Oyster Bay branch in April. Let’s hope the eight-month test period is successful, so the other three diesel branches — Montauk, Port Jefferson and Ronkonkoma — can become fully electrified as well. Of course, we must ask ourselves how the electricity to power our trains and buses is being generated — from fossilfuel power plants or renewable resources such as solar, wind and geothermal? Renewable is the way forward.

OPINIONS

fter watching a boring sci-fi movie, I stared at the blinking orange hand signal outside the Lynbrook movie theater, waiting to cross heavily trafficked, four-lane Peninsula Boulevard. The white stick figure flashed, the seconds counted down to zero, and I found myself halfway across the road, wondering if this would be how I would die. I had just undergone my fourth knee surgery a few weeks before, and a fullleg brace and crutches were docCRISTINA ARROYO tor’s orders. The first time I had my RODRIGUEZ ACL swapped for a cadaver ligament, I was a first-year doctoral student in industrial and organizational psychology, more than happy to return to class in person two weeks post-surgery, against doctor’s orders. “At least it’s your leg that’s the problem, and not your brain,” my program chair said by way of welcoming me back. Not only was this statement ableist in that it dismissed the worth of neurodivergent people, but also it showed a lack

of understanding in our leadership and institutions of what it means to live with or be a person with a disability. “I no longer want the disabled population to be an afterthought,” Nadia Holubnyczyj, the first person in a wheelchair to run for the Nassau County Legislature, said during this fall’s campaign. With the founding of the county’s new disability-awareness advisory group, she called for government “to shift their entire mindset, their language, planning and execution.” Indeed, my temporary mobility disability didn’t only affect my leg, but also changed my relationship with the world, and vice versa. First, I was following a pain management schedule that included prescription opioids, which affect memory, focus and cognitive speed. When you’re hugging a toilet bowl between fits of vomiting or falling asleep from chemically induced fatigue three times a day, it’s difficult to decide whether Edward Lawler or John Stacey Adams best explains reactions to pay inequity. Second, the cognitive labor of navigating a world not built for you, and even

temporary mobility issue changed my relationship with the world, and vice versa.

LETTERS fires out West. I am also grateful for our partners who share a common purpose and community spirit to connect more people with critical humanitarian support. And our financial supporters allow the Red Cross to deliver emergency relief 24/7, 365 days a year. A final word of thanks to our first responders — police, fire and EMS — whom we are proud to support as they protect and assist our communities every day. Wishing you all a happy and safe Thanksgiving. Let’s continue to look out for one another. JOSE DOMINGUEZ CEO, American Red Cross on Long Island

Keep up the cancer reporting To the Editor: Regarding Scott Brinton’s column “A famed journalist enlightens us on cancer reporting” (Nov. 11-17): I want to thank Brinton and commend him for his cancer reporting. Although no cancer clusters have been officially designated on Long Island, I have found that there is a high incidence of cancer in communities here. I was diagnosed with acute myeloge-

built against you, is taxing. Where are the elevators in this Long Island Rail Road station? Are they currently in service? Will my crutches slip on the sidewalk? Where can I elevate my leg when at work? How much earlier do I need to leave? What detours should I take to avoid tripping and falling? Even though Holubnyczyj said she believes “there is no specific area of need that the county should be focusing on that would benefit the disabled,” she makes an exception for inequities in public transportation, which is one of the “hot spots” that need to be addressed. Besides planning the logistics of navigation, there is also the emotional strain of being treated as an inconvenience, a burden. “If it’s important to you, you’d attend,” an elected official said of whether to allow public meetings to be held on Zoom. “If you loved your children, you would make time,” said the president of a school club who holds monthly meetings exclusively in the evening. According to the 2018 American Community Survey, about 2 million New Yorkers, roughly 11 percent of the state’s

population, have a visible or invisible disability. And even after passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act in 1990, over 30 percent of reports filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission were claims of disability discrimination. In the past five years, Nassau County has spent almost $1 million in ADA settlements, even though only about one in five report this kind of discrimination. My Ph.D. program chair accurately recognized that there was a problem, but it wasn’t my leg. My leg wouldn’t have been a problem if public transportation had reliable access, if workplaces provided proper accommodations, if public meetings offered remote participation and if that pedestrian crossing signal lasted a few seconds longer. The disability doesn’t lie within me, Nadia, or within the community of people with disabilities, but within our institutions. Cristina Arroyo Rodriguez is editor of the Baldwin Herald and has been a nonprofit organizational consultant in the areas of pay equity and diversity, equity and inclusion. She has lectured in psychology at Baruch College, Bronx Community College and the City University of New York, and has taught Master Executive classes for NYPD leadership at John Jay College.

nous leukemia two and a half years ago. In my square-block area in North Merrick, there were four other people diagnosed with cancer. One of them lost her life. In Merrick, I know of five other people with blood cancers besides me. In the office where I worked in Roosevelt Field, there were two others besides me diagnosed with blood cancers. One of them lost her life. We were an office of only about 75 people. This is all anecdotal, but unless responsible reporters like Brinton and Dan Fagin bring this to the public’s attention, dangerous cancer-causing situations will not be addressed. Thank you for the work you do. PATRICIA FIFE North Merrick
