Curran encourages local shopping County business scavenger hunt begins Saturday By TONY BElliSSiMO tbellissimo@liherald.com

Last Friday afternoon, outside Matty’s Toy Stop in Rockville Centre, Nassau County Executive Laura Curran was joined by the Nassau Council of Chambers of Commerce and the Nassau County Industrial Development Agency to announce the Shop Safe, Shop Local Scavenger Hunt, encouraging residents to shop and dine at small business-

es that are struggling because of the coronavirus pandemic. It’s Nassau’s second annual scavenger hunt to promote shopping locally during the holiday season. This year, however, it has been expanded from one day to one week. The event will kick off Saturday and run through Friday, Dec. 4. There will be one winner each day, and no repeat winners will be allowed. The first to complete the hunt each day will receive a $100 gift card,

courtesy of the Nassau Council of Chambers of Commerce, to be used to shop locally. Lynbrook Chamber of Commerce President Steve Wangel said he was happy to see the scavenger hunt return, in particular because many local businesses are struggling amid the pandemic. “I’m pleased that County Executive Curran has decided to Continued on page 3

Holiday scavenger hunt promotes local businesses continue the Small Business Saturday scavenger hunt,” Wangel said, “especially at a time when small businesses are having such a challenge drawing customers. The scavenger hunt brings a new way to attract customers to our small and sometimes struggling businesses.” Jeannine Palladino, owner of Jeannine’s Gifts, on North Park Avenue in Rockville Centre, also expressed optimism. “Laura Curran and other local politicians like [Hempstead Town Councilman] Anthony D’Esposito and [State Sen.] Todd Kaminsky have been extremely supportive to small businesses since the shutdown in March,” she said “It’s really been a struggle, and I admire how hard they’ve worked to keep small businesses going.” For Shop Safe, Shop Local Scavenger Hunt rules, go to www.nassaucountyny. gov/shoplocal. All purchases must be made at small businesses within the same community in Nassau County. At the news conference, Curran urged consumers to make their purchases at local small businesses. “Our small businesses, especially those in our once bustling downtowns, that employ so many of our neighbors, families and friends, are struggling to survive,” she said. “You can help throw them a lifeline just by doing your holiday shopping at the mom-andpop shops in your community — rather than online or at big-box retailers. I hope

assist small businesses during these challenging times, including loans and [personal protective equipment] giveaways. This is just another effort of support to promote shopping safely and shopping locally to support the brick-and-mortar businesses that are the fabric of this county.” Small Business Saturday was first launched by American Express in 2010 to promote shopping at small businesses in

between Black Friday and Cyber Monday. This collaborative event expands on Small Business Saturday. Julia Marchesella, an NCCC past president, said she was proud of the partnerships fostered to continue the event. “We are grateful for the opportunity to recognize our local business owners and chamber members who eagerly await your safe shopping experience,” she said.

Condos proposed at site of sushi restaurant Continued from front page survive. It would be horrible for the board to change the zoning, and thus shut down another mom-and-pop business.” Long Island Building Corp. is looking to build two condo complexes, dubbed Parson’s Corners at Lynbrook, comprising 18 units, including two onebedroom and 16 two-bedroom condos that would be sold, not rented. The buildings would also include a basement for storage units, would be 27 feet tall and would have 38 parking spaces for condo owners. While Weisner expressed concern about the impact that the new tenants could have on traffic and the school district, attorney William Bonesso said the developers did not anticipate any problems. Bonesso, who represents the firm Forchelli, Deegan and Terrana LLP, spoke to the board as the attorney for Long Island Building Corp. He noted that many restaurants have come and gone at the site, and that the influx of new residents would increase property values in the village and would bring in more people to patronize local businesses, while filling a need.

“As this board is well aware, there’s a need across Long Island for housing alternatives to single-family residences,” Bonesso said, “both for first-time home buyers who no longer want to live in their parents’ homes or in basement apartments and for empty-nest seniors who no longer want the burden and expense of maintaining a house.” Bonesso said the developers would not seek a PILOT, or payment in lieu of taxes, from the county or town Industrial Development Agency, and would triple the roughly $78,000 in taxes that are collected from the property now. He also gave the board the results of a traffic study that showed little to no impact on the area, and brought with him an appraiser, who said home values would increase in the area if the project were approved. Additionally, Bonesso said, the Nassau County Planning Commission ruled in favor of the plan, while village Building Superintendent Brian Stanton said it would blend in with neighboring properties without causing any environmental concerns. Bonesso also cited a letter from the Lynbrook Chamber of Commerce, endorsing the project. “The chamber board feels that the project has the

potential of being a great benefit to both the Lynbrook community and our local businesses,” President Steve Wangel wrote. “The board is hopeful for approval by the village trustees so that this project can commence as soon as possible.” Jeff Greenfield, a Chamber of Commerce member and Lynbrook business owner, also spoke in favor of the project. “I was witness to a presentation given to the Chamber of Commerce,” he told the board. “I urge you to continue to rezone this property so that Lynbrook would enjoy this development and good, taxable, ratable properties.” If the village board were to approve the project, the developers would seek variances and further approval before work could begin. The developers plan to rezone the area from a commercialand-dwelling district to an all-dwelling district and would need a special-use permit for the proposed multi-family use. If the rezoning were approved, the village’s Board of Zoning Appeals would have to OK parking variances, and the developer would need to have its site plan approved by the village’s Architectural Review Board, in coordination with the Nassau County Depart-

ment of Public Works and the fire marshal’s office. The project would take about a year to complete. After the hearing, Mayor Alan Beach said he could not comment on the proposal until the board decided the case, but he said he was keeping an open mind. “This administration will listen to all proposals presented to the board and carefully consider them with full transparency,” he said. If approved, the development would be the second major housing project to move forward in the village this year. In June, the much-maligned Capri Lynbrook Motor Inn was razed, and the $24 million, 80-unit Cornerstone at Yorkshire apartment complex will soon replace it. Though there is an issue between Wang and the property owners, village attorney Tom Atkinson said it is a private dispute, and the village board has nothing to do with it. He added that under the state constitution, the board must hear the application put before it. “I want to be as respectful to the local business as possible . . .,” he said. “Legally, the village would have no liability” if it were to approve or reject the project.

Waverly Park hosts successful food drive In honor of T hanksgiving, the Waverly Park Elementary School Student Council facilitated a food drive to support the Five Towns Community Center, Inc.’s food pantry in Lawrence. To prepare for the two-day food drive, which they referred to as “Stuff a Turkey,” the student council members, created posters to advertise the event. To safely collect donations from Waverly Park families, student council advisers Shari Bowes and Courtney Jacobs dressed as a turkey and an owl, respectively, and warmly greeted families outside during the school’s drop off time while music played. Before

entering the school, students placed their nonperishable food items in boxes to support the food drive. With the help of the Waverly Park community, the students collected 10 boxes of food to deliver to the community center to help feed families in need this holiday season. “Student council wants to help others,” Bowes said, according to a school district release. “We knew that this was something that people need. We wanted other people to feel good knowing that they had food in their pantry.” Courtesy Lynbrook Public Schools; compiled by Mike Smollins

Bringing local sports home every week

Herald sports Hofstra takes more aggressive approach By TONY BELLISSIMO tbellissimo@liherald.com

Last season was a difficult one for Hofstra’s women’s basketball program in terms of wins and losses, but there’s plenty of reasons for second-year head coach Danielle Santos Atkinson to be optimistic about the future. The Pride was unable to beat any of its Colonial Athletic Association rivals in 201920 and finished 3-27 overall while being outscored by an average of 15.6 points per game. Its victories came against Hartford, Morgan State and Campbell. “There were a lot of factors going into my first season and our eyes were set on a bigger picture,” said Santos Atkinson, a former Hofstra assistant who returned to campus last season to become the 12th head coach in program history. “We saw a lot of individual development and laid the foundation,” she added. “This season we’re looking to be much more aggressive at both ends of the floor. We want to play faster on offense and pressure the ball and generate more turnovers on defense.” The effort to close the gap on the rest of the CAA will be led by two full-time returning starters and one part-time returning starter, all of whom Atkinson is counting on to take their games to another level, along with a talented group of newcomers. Jaylen Hines started all 30 games in 201920 and led the team in scoring (11.6 ppg), rebounding (8.8 rpg) and steals while shooting nearly 50 percent from the floor (139-for281) to rank third in the conference. A 5-foot10 redshirt junior forward, she poured in a career-high 30 points against Charleston and is a “walking double-double,” Santos Atkinson said. “Jaylen is our most proven player and she’s returned with a lot more confidence,” Santos Atkinson said. “She worked on her game and her body big time during the quarantine. She has great touch around the rim and a positive demeanor that makes her a leader.” Sophomore Sorelle Ineza started all but two games last season at point guard and chipped in 8 points per game with a teamleading 32 minutes per game and 85 assists. From Quebec, Canada, Ineza was named to the CAA All-Rookie Team. “We put an awful lot on Sorelle’s shoulders last season,” Santos Atkinson said. “Being a freshman point guard is tough. Her game evolved over the season and now we’ll look to move her off the ball and give her more opportunities to shoot.” A couple of candidates to run the point are Rosi Nicholson, a junior coming off a strong season for Santa Fe Community College in Florida, and Jaysyni Knight, a junior transfer from the University of Pittsburgh who may not be eligible to play until next season pending a waiver decision on the NCAA’s transfer policy. Another former Pitt Panther, 6-foot-3 redshirt junior forward Jaala Henry, practiced with the Pride all of last season while sitting

out under the transfer rule. “She knows our system and is ready to contribute major minutes,” Santos Atkinson said. “She’s versatile with good shooting range and rebounding ability.” Hofstra’s third returnee with starting experience is junior guard JaKayla Brown, who averaged 6 points per game over 24 appearances, including a dozen starts. “JaKayla’s worked hard during the offseason and is an improved shooter who’ll help us at both ends.” Santos Atkinson believes the Pride will be a deeper squad than last season — and needs to be. “We want to play faster so we need fresh legs off the bench,” she noted. The Pride is scheduled to open the campaign with a non-conference game at Siena on Nov. 25. The CAA slate will once again include 18 games, but due to Covid-19 the format has been adjusted to limit travel and help ensure the health and safety of studentathletes, coaches and staff. In lieu of a traditional, home-and-home round robin schedule, teams will play against the same opponent at the same site on consecutive days, primarily weekends. “On paper, the conference is just as strong as last season,” Santos Atkinson said. “We’re focused on the little things and what’s going to make us competitive every single game.” The CAA regular season will tip off Friday, Jan. 1, and conclude on Sunday, Feb. 28. Games impacted by the pandemic could be made up at various alternate dates. Hofstra opens CAA action against William & Mary. As of now, fans are not expected to be permitted to attend games. “No fans is something we’ll have to get used to,” Santos Atkinson said. “When it’s game time, we just have to get locked in.”

THE QUESTION: How

do you cook a turkey?

You have to get something sharp to cut up the turkey. Put some salt on it, and then you put it on the stove for about 30 minutes. Or if you have a phone, you can Google it! MADELINE K. Kindergarten

Buy a turkey and cut it up. Put it in the oven, and cook it for 13 minutes with hot dogs. I love to eat the chicken part the best. LIAM B. Kindergarten

I think my dad has a baking soda box to put on it, but he never cooked a turkey before. I guess you put it in a pot or pan with cheese and M&Ms on it and then cook it. I don’t eat the bone part, just the chicken part. GIADDA I. Kindergarten

I think you put some kind of grease inside it to make it soft to chew. When it comes out, you decorate it with salad for its hair, bones for its legs and a carrot for its nose. Mackenzie U. 1st Grade

Buy a 10-pound turkey, season it with any type of spices, like pepper and hot sauce. Then put it in the oven for about 30 minutes. SEBASTIAN H. 1st Grade

Put the turkey in the oven for 30 minutes, bring it out, then eat it with a fork with corn, chicken, rice, meatballs and broccoli. When you’re done, put the plate in the sink, and then wash your hands. MARYN H. 1st Grade

arly in the coronavirus pandemic quarantine/working from home stage, I was reading a journalism trade publication and saw this: “Editors of community newspapers, an often overlooked but critically important element of the U.S. media ecosystem, are front-line responders in the coronavirus crisis.” I had to read it twice. First because someone was recognizing community newspapers and second it made realize the vitality of the work my Herald colleagues and I have been doing since March. The first two months were a whirlwind of news, updating news, more news and getting our bearings as the Herald editorial team translated their skills from only producing a weekly newspaper to becoming an online daily that produces a paper. Watching the daily briefings from Gov. Andrew Cuomo and County Executive Laura Curran and either writing or updating stories based on the information presented became routine. Waiting for the phases of reopening, writing stories on residents doing their part to help from feeding essential workers to making homemade facemasks also became part of our story landscape. The need to go out to our coverage areas remained important, and that continued all the while maintaining the required safety protocols. In the Five Towns, we have deepened our friendships with those we knew, made new friends.

y job entails analyzing hospital financial results, providing reports to all management levels and maintaining financial systems. The pandemic has changed my job because now I work remotely. Now, we collaborate by email, telephone and virtual meetings. I work from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. However, sometimes I work longer hours because of deadlines or because I need to finish reports or respond to emails. The hardest part of working during the pandemic is not seeing my co-workers in person for face-to-face engagements, especially when we work on big projects. On many occasions, the internet fails during a video conference. It takes a longer time to accomplish certain tasks when you are not with your superiors or co-workers trying to figure out the unknown. I have come to terms with this new normal at work, but it’s not easy because I am in a confined space in my home all day, without much human interaction. I miss collaborating with co-workers and celebrating birthdays or special holidays at work. The pandemic has changed my mindset in many ways. It made me realize how much people rely on each other to make our lives function. For example, we rely on grocery shop workers, health care workers, mailmen and women and FedEx delivery people, and many others, who risk their lives going to work each day, to provide us with their services. The pandemic was a shock at first because during my lifetime we have not experienced an invisible war like how this Covid-19 virus has been.

Patient transPorter, Mount sinai soutH nassau oCeanside

s the lockdowns were implemented and the world’s attention was locked in on the relentless surge of Covid-19, my colleagues and I at Mount Sinai South Nassau united with one mission: We were going to face it head-on with our patients and be with them every step of the way until the day we joyfully ushered them out of the main entrance of the hospital. I could see the fear in our patients when they arrived at the hospital doors and in their loved ones who dropped them off. When I returned home from work to my family, I was just as fearful that they might catch it from me; obviously, that was the last thing I wanted. While I knew that the hospital’s infectious disease and quality and safety teams had implemented the protocols and measures that would keep me and my colleagues safe while at work, I always had this nagging thought of "what if.” I often good-naturedly reminded my wife that my years of working in a school reinforced the habit of sanitizing my hands. Each day I returned home from work, I immediately went to my bedroom without greeting or hugging my wife and then headed to the shower. Purposely avoiding the running hugs from my children as I entered our home was something I had never imagined having to do. As the lockdown intensified and our loved ones and neighbors sheltered in place, I went to work each day hoping that today would be better than yesterday.

ne was the village’s events that was supposed to take place in late March was Post 44’s annual walk-a-thon to raise funds for our veterans. Just because volunteers couldn’t walk with us this year, we told them that can still have their boots on the ground to help walk in spirit with our veterans. If you can, we would appreciate your consideration of any amount to help our veterans. We held our first walk-a-thon in 2018, and we had Post 44 veterans walking side by side with children on Franklin Avenue. Our slogan for the walk was, ‘They march for us, we walk for them.’ We ended up collecting $800 in donations that year. As for this year’s walk-a-thon, the [New York State] Department of State advised Post 44 that people interested in donating to veterans that are hospitalized, living in state homes, awaiting placements or need of shelter, can send checks to the American Legion at P.O. Box 44, Malverne, N.Y. 11565. We thought that this would also be a great project for children at home to reach out to all veterans. If you wish to send a card with or without a donation, we would be very thankful.

Doughboy Monument, 100, has plenty of history lyneditor@liherald.com

The following information came from the archives of Lynbrook American Legion Post 335, and old newspaper clippings, including the Nassau Daily Review and Nassau Daily Star newspapers. The period of the newspaper articles is from 1931 to 1936. In this day and age when some want to take down statues from past generations and wars, Lynbrook has its own statue that has stood for 100 years. as of this past October. However, the statue did cause some controversy in the 1930s, with one newspaper saying it caused a “village civil war.” That statue is the veteran’s Doughboy Monument (also called the Soldiers and Sailors monument in the 1920s), a statue of a World War I soldier which stands on a small plot of an island in Saperstein Plaza behind Lynbrook’s Long Island Rail Road station. It is the centerpiece of the village’s war monuments. On the four-sided pedestal below the statue are the names of 15 local soldiers killed in action in World War I. The inscription on the back of the statue reads, “Erected by the citizens of Lynbrook and vicinity, dedicated on 12th day of October A.D. 1920.” The Doughboy did not always stand in Saperstein Plaza, and one of its past locations caused the controversy that pitted Lynbrook’s American Legion members against village fathers, and especially against the Lynbrook Library board of trustees. Back in the mid-1930s, Lynbrook’s American Legion Post 335 numbered 270 members, with championship county and state baseball teams, a boy’s club, and even a 30-piece band. It also sponsored an annual weeklong village carnival at Sunrise Highway and Atlantic Avenue and highlighted an annual contest “to decide the most popular policemen, fireman, letter carrier, boy and girl in Lynbrook.” The post also hosted musical plays, and its former building on Union Avenue was a center of community activities, including parties, meetings, and other village events. The Doughboy statue, which reportedly cost $5,000, was commissioned by Lynbrook’s Militia Unit, Company B, 23rd Regiment of the New York National Guard. Philip Stauderman, former Lynbrook village president, and a captain in the Regiment, told the Nassau Daily Star in 1936 that the statue was built through public subscription and “turned over to the Village of Lynbrook after its dedication by Gen. John F. O’Brien, on Presidents Day.” The inscription on the bottom of the Doughboy said the that the general’s last name is O’Ryan. The statue with its pedestal of names of those killed in action was originally placed on the corner of Merrick Road and Blake Avenue where an Esso gas station stood and where a village fountain now stands. Not long after it was erected, a car hit the pedestal and knocked the statue off,

the DouGhBoy MonuMent in Lynbrook, which turned 100 in October, has had a storied history filled with controversy. breaking it. The veterans rebuilt it for $2,200 and it was put back up. Present writings beneath the pedestal of the statue say it was “destroyed by a motorist June 6, 1924 ,reconstructed by popular subscription of the people of Lynbrook under the direction of ex-members of the above Militia unit November 24, 1924.” According to another undated news article, the statue had been knocked off its base a number of times and always repaired by the veterans. It was after these repeated repairs that Lynbrook’s American Legion, which hosted annual Armistice Day (Nov. 11, later named Veteran’s Day) ceremonies in front of the Doughboy, standing out in Merrick Road with cars speeding by, asked the Village of Lynbrook to move the statue. From the undated articles, it appears this request first occurred around 1934 or ‘35. The American Legion proposed that the Doughboy be moved to the property of the Lynbrook Library. Specifically, the corner of the property at Eldert Street and Carpenter Avenue. The Library boardbimmediately rejected that proposal. The trustees didn’t want it on the property as it “would mar the architecture of the building.” One trustee on the village board, Charles Guden, was also against the use of the library property, and “argued that an apartment house might sometime be located on that corner plot.” Another article said Mrs. Lillian E. Raeburn, vice president of the

board said, “the statue would clutter up the library lawn.” The board put their refusal in a letter addressed to the mayor and village board. The letter said in part, “The library site would ruin what is now generally considered as one of the most beautiful libraries.” It went further to say, “It (statue) would tend to clutter up the lawn,” and, “We don’t want the library grounds to be used as a resting place for everything that can’t be placed elsewhere.” The American Legion responded and voted a “resolution censuring the library board for their attitude.” “The resolution was not made public but it was made known that it criticized the library officials in no uncertain terms,” the papers read. Lynbrook Mayor Harold G. Wilson then got involved and “appointed a committee to find a site, submitting at the same time a plan for a park on Sunrise Highway and Earle Avenue.” The Legion immediately rejected that location due to the traffic on Sunrise Highway. It was the same reason they wanted the Doughboy moved from Merrick Road. One newspaper said, “The Legionnaires raised objection to this site on the grounds that traffic condition would threaten any gatherings.” Even with the American Legion’s rejection of Sunrise Highway, the village went ahead and drew up plans for a statue site at that location. The plans were presented to the mayor’s committee, which

included members from all the veteran’s organizations. The American Legion said no, again, to that location. “Mayor Harold G. Wilson said that, in respect to the Legion’s action, the village board had nothing to say as it had appointed a committee to consider the question of a site for the memorial monument and that the board was awaiting its recommendation before doing anything definite.” In an editorial, dated April 18, 1935, titled, “Who is the Boss?” the unknown newspaper stated, “This matter should not rest with the refusal of the library trustees, but should be threshed out and the village board know where they stand.” “it was just a case of the veteran becoming another forgotten man,” said former Village Trustee James Schofield. Another newspaper editorial called the controversy, a “village civil war.” As even more articles appeared in the newspapers about the controversy, the East Rockaway American Legion post even got involved. One article said, “East Rockaway Post, American Legion, going on record condemning the action of the library board in refusing to accept the monument. Interest of the East Rockaway post was inspired by the fact the names of eight East Rockaway men are inscribed on the monument.” Finally, in an article in the Nassau Daily Star on Feb.n11, 1936, the headline read, “Board Surrenders; Doughboy Seizes Lynbrook Library.” Even though the library board was against the proposal, the village board adopted “a resolution authorizing the moving of the ‘Doughboy’ monument from Merrick Road and Blake Avenue to the Lynbrook Public Library grounds.” “The action was taken following the receipt of a report from the monument committee,” which had unanimously recommended the library site. The American Legion, joined by the Veterans of Foreign Wars and the Spanish War veterans, voted for the library location. The other members also agreed. The Doughboy was moved to the library site shortly after Armistice Day, Nov.11, 1936, but the writer has been unable to establish the date it was eventually moved from the library to its present location at Saperstein Plaza. Lynbrook’s Doughboy statue has been honored by the United States World War One Centennial Commission and was chosen to receive a $2,000 grant from the “100 Cities/100 Memorials” committee, which helps restore and preserve World War I memorials. “The Doughboy Monument is truly one of the iconic symbols of Lynbrook and it provides the perfect setting bringing the community and veterans together to commemorate all those who served in our countries armed forces and in particular those who never made it home,” said Bill Marinaccio, commander of Lynbrook American Legion Post 335. Grogan is a veteran and member of American Legion Post 335, and a former Lynbrook Village Trustee.

Q. As a contractor who Ask The reads your column, I don’t always agree with you, but Architect generally I find things interesting, especially knowing other people are going through the same things as me. I have a strange situation I wanted your opinion about and also wanted readers to know about, since it has never happened before, to me, anyway. I have a really nice prospective job to do onte eeper that will keep me and my employees busy through the winter. It’s a complete interior renovation in an upscale, very large apartment. The problem is, I was just told there would be another contractor on the job. Weird, huh? After months of interviews and checking my references, I was told the owner would kind of “bid” items out as we go along, like if my number was too high for finish work in the master bathroom, they would take the other guy, or if they needed me to only do the flooring that week, even though I was supposed to do everything, they would give me a “day or two notice.” Have you ever heard of anything like that? How can I make a living this way? What do you think?

beautiful Cape that is situated on a large corner property with more than 3 lots of frontage (122') and fenced yard, huge private outdoor deck, attached garage, and parking for 4-5 cars. This home features central air, living room plus

A. Not only is it strange, it’s a great way to lose your business. I wouldn’t even consider such an arrangement. I have experienced similar setups, and I do mean “setup,” when an owner wants a building design, but after many design meetings, walls and spaces finally arranged, structure determined with room for ductwork, plumbing and electrical, the owner hands the job to a mystery interior designer who moves wall locations, violates code, ignores ductwork and plumbing locations — basically wrecking the building’s ability to work as a “system” in favor of random-ordered walls. When the owner does this, it sets us up for failure. It’s possible that owners don’t understand the consequences of their narrowed thinking. Your dilemma is financial and logistical, and worst of all, you’re being set up to fail at your job, one for which you could end up being blamed for work you didn’t even do. There’s the liability problem with whose workmanship caused damages, whose employee may get hurt because of cross-over work that created a dangerous condition, and whose insurance will be used to cover the scope of the job. The owner, it seems, wants to be the contractor, treating two competing companies as subcontractors. Maybe the owner has figured out a way to save money on every item while watching workers scrounge for morsels of tasks to try to make payroll that week. This is a bait-and-switch operation where you believe you’ll be doing the work, as a professional, setting up the dates to deploy which employee or subcontractor, arranging for tools and delivered materials, only to get a call the day before informing you that the parallel party will be stepping in. You may regret being set up. Good luck!

opinions

esides the sad deaths of a quartermillion Americans, the pandemic claimed another victim this month: the re-election of President Trump. Had the election been held in February, Trump would have won against any Democrat. Unemployment was historically low, there were more jobs than job seekers, incomes were up, 401(k)s were high, manufacturing was robust, deregulation liberated small business, he engineered a more assertive U.S. trade policy, no new wars were waged, hostilities were being JoHn abroad, o’ConneLL reduced Middle East peace deals were coming and consumer spending was strong. Trump’s February re-election wouldn’t have been unanimous. Millions who prioritize the environment and climate change would have voted for a Democrat. People who disagreed with Trump’s right-to-life stand would have opposed him. Citizens who find him repulsive wouldn’t have voted for him. His obnoxious narcissism didn’t help, though Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s and former President Barack Obama’s obvious vanity is overlooked by a worshipful media.

But the ante-pandemic Trump would have won. Even in November he garnered 4 million more votes than Obama did in 2008, 8 million more than Obama did in 2012, 8 million more than Hillary Clinton in 2016. Trump 2020 even beat Trump 2016 by nearly 11 million votes. Yet still, to the cheers of nearly 80 million Biden voters, Trump is likely to have lost his re-election bid after his legal challenges conclude. The virus exposed his myopic focus on the economy and jobs and his minimizing of other critical concerns. Trump all along has preached a gospel of nationalistic capitalism. John F. Kennedy’s brilliant speechwriter, Ted Sorenson, once used the now famous aphorism, “A rising tide lifts all boats,” in a presidential address. Trump not only believed in that theory, he achieved such an uplifted economy. Unemployment was at 3.5 percent in February, the lowest since 1969. Americans were working, getting paid more, saving more, spending more. The increased demand encouraged more trade under better trade deals, such as the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement. Retirement savings plans were doing well, helping limited-income seniors feel more secure about paying their bills. Most people were living better. A pre-election poll —

that received little press attention — revealed that most people felt they were better off than they were four years ago. Then the pandemic struck. Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, told the president and the nation in January that Covid-19 wasn’t a major threat. That’s all the rationale the country’s CEO needed to continue prioritizing economic growth. He knew that a pandemic had the potential to reverse all of his economic accomplishments and cut America’s flourishing growth off at the knees. While he took actions, like stopping incoming travel from China, ordering vaccine research and eventual distribution to commence at warp speed, sending hospital ships to California and New York, and ramping up ventilator production, he eschewed leading a national, coordinated effort. Nor did he inspire an America-wide “Let’s fight together” effort of mutual protection. This lack of a federal-level, all-out war on the virus gave voters the impression that Trump saw the pandemic as an annoying distraction, eclipsing the sun from shining on his accomplishments. The virus wasn’t a problem he could build, deal or fire his way out of. He ran for president to be the manager in chief, and he was good at it, but when the pandemic came,

ut just imagine if the vote had taken place in February, before the pandemic.

we needed an empathizer and inspirer, a credible leader who could take — and eloquently explain — tough actions, and he wasn’t that. Covid-19 delivered the fatal wound. And when Trump caught the virus at the height of the campaign — probably by setting a poor example by not wearing a mask and ignoring social distancing — the spotlight narrowed onto his failure to lead, and all his achievements went dark. He had fended off many cuts before. Long knives had been out even before Inauguration Day 2017: An indisputably far-left press in cahoots with social media moguls to censor MAGA speech; an infuriatingly condescending socialist elite; millionaire athletes and other entertainers; anarchists, arsonists and rioters disturbing the domestic tranquility and opposition-party conspiracies each drew blood. With little help, he prevailed against them all. President-elect Joseph Biden’s supporters can celebrate their victory this Thanksgiving weekend. Trump’s fans should also be thankful, because the national pride they’ve relished for the last four years will prevail. Trump ignited it, but it was ours before him and will be ours after him. Reasonable patriots on both political sides make America great. We can all be thankful for that. John O’Connell is a former executive editor of the Herald Community Newspapers.

It wasn’t easy: How I got to see my grandkids

he following is not a how-to for anyone else. It’s just my story. We all have to maneuver our way through the grinding deprivations of the coronavirus as best we can. We hadn’t seen the kids or grandkids for nine months, since we were lucky enough to gather for an anniversary holiday in the Dominican Republic last February. Before we left for the D.R., we were worried about the mysterious and random deaths of Randi tourists on the kReiss island over the year before. We didn’t realize that the far more deadly Covid-19 was already lying in wait there, and gaining ground in the U.S. We went, and everyone came home healthy, but toward the end of our stay we started hearing news about this novel coronavirus thing. Having survived the D.R., we fully expected to go back to our lives and begin planning the next time we could see our children and grandchildren. We were on that imaginary road we all have in our

heads that rolls along into the future until we hit a wall. Suddenly all of us got knocked sideways by Covid-19, and we began making adjustments and accepting life compromises we never could have imagined. Over the summer, we didn’t visit our kids out West as we always do. We didn’t visit the Florida kids, either, because Florida seems to be ground zero for foolishness when it comes to the virus. We felt increasingly shocked and depressed by the stories of people toiling at risky jobs because they couldn’t afford to stay home, at the same time caring for sick relatives and watching loved ones die. If you have a heart and a conscience, they keep hammering you to do something when there really was nothing to do except try to stay healthy and safe. We stayed in touch with the family as the kids’ schools closed down, and they appeared increasingly detached and sleepy and bored when we connected on Zoom or Facetime. We leaned in and asked questions and they answered, and their slightly distant politeness seemed to exacerbate the pain of separation and real communica-

tion. A few weeks ago, my daughter in California said she wanted to visit and bring the kids. She really wanted to visit; I think she was worried that we might not be around forever. I suppose we’re all feeling our mortality. And she was worried that Covid was getting worse and flying might become impossible. As I wrote last week, we all decided that Thanksgiving was out of the question because of all the people who would be traveling over the holiday despite the warnings. We wanted to maximize safety. My daughter flew three weeks ago. Two flights to get here: empty planes. Everyone in the airports and on board was masked. When they got here, they stayed in a rental rather than with us, and we lent them a car so we wouldn’t drive anyplace together. They ate meals in their own place, although that’s usually our best family activity. It didn’t feel good at all to pay for a rental when I have plenty of room for them. It felt worse to wear masks when we were together, to keep six feet of social distance, and not hug. After a nine-month separation, we didn’t hug the people we love most in the

world. The Florida kids came for 24 hours and stayed at a nearby hotel, just so the cousins could see one another before another year goes by. We were together outside whenever possible, and when the weather was uncooperative we sat inside, apart, near open doors and windows. The kids spent a big part of each day going to school online at their rental space. We invented the interlocking-elbow hug and the expressive-eyes love beam, and we went to parks when we could and walked around, taking in the fresh air and one another. I never noticed on Facetime how much they have grown this year, and how they carry themselves differently, and how one has become a bit more diffident as another displays a new boldness in the world. We did it as best we could. I would say we never forgot the danger lurking among us. Our regimen was disciplined but not perfect. They flew back home a few days ago, having obtained proof of life and proof of love all around. It was a visit unlike any others: We all knew we were seizing a moment with no promise of when we could meet again. Copyright 2020 Randi Kreiss. Randi can be reached at randik3@aol.com.

Giving thanks in 2020

n a year when so much has gone awry — so many lives lost, businesses battered, jobs vanished — it strains the imagination to think what we might be thankful for, particularly as the nation enters its second wave of the coronavirus pandemic. The coming months will likely be, as President-elect Joseph Biden has said, a “dark winter.” Thanksgiving is, however, all about the audacious nature of hope. The holiday, first celebrated in the fall of 1621, commemorates the struggle that the original Pilgrims faced and, against all odds, overcame in the New World — and the kinship they felt with the Native Americans who rescued them, helping to provide sustenance to a relatively small band of people who otherwise might have starved. The roughly 50 colonists at the original harvest celebration in Plymouth, Mass., were outnumbered by Native Americans two to one, according to History.com. The 100 Pilgrims who arrived on the Mayflower had seen much death between 1620 and 1621: Some 78 percent of the women died during the first winter. Yet they persevered, and survived. So shall the American people today — thanks in no small measure to our heroes

— the doctors, nurses, EMTS, firefighters, police officers, teachers, teachers’ aides, sanitation workers, railroad workers, subway and bus drivers, custodians, cooks, waiters and waitresses, supermarket employees and so many others — who have kept us safe, our education system up and running, and our economy moving. When many others were able to work from home, they put their lives on the line to do their jobs. As a society, we should take a moment and reflect on their sacrifices over the past nine months. We can also be thankful for our family and friends. We may not be able to shower them with hugs and kisses as we might want, but we can keep them in our thoughts and close to our hearts. And we can be thankful for the miracles of modern science. Only 100 years ago, the 1918 pandemic ran wild for two years, killing 50 million worldwide, including 675,000 in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Thanks to technology that allows many of us to work remotely and socially distance, to date we have seen a tenth of the 500 million cases that the world did in

1918-19, and because of modern medical technology, the death toll thus far is onefiftieth what it was then. So, while the number of infections and deaths today is unacceptably high, it is not close to the level of suffering experienced a hundred years ago — and let us hope and pray that it remains that way. Likely, it will. On Saturday, the innovative New York company Regeneron Pharmaceuticals received emergency-use authorization for its experimental antibody treatment for the coronavirus. President Trump received the treatment, and by all accounts it was highly effective. The drug is designed to prevent patients from becoming severely ill by imitating the body’s natural defense system. We can only say, wow! If all goes well, the Regeneron treatment should prevent many deaths, enabling health officials to safely roll out at least one of the vaccines now in the pipeline without undue political pressure. By April, we could indeed round the corner on this terrible pandemic, says Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. Yes, there has been much despair this year, but there is much hope as well.

County does right by small businesses

e are pleased that Nassau County Executive Laura Curran is once again promoting small businesses ahead of the holiday season — which is vital this pandemic year. Last Friday, Curran and county Industrial Development Agency Chairman Richard Kessel came to Rockville Centre to promote an innovative contest, aptly titled the Shop Safe, Shop Local Scavenger Hunt, and we are encouraging readers to take part in it. The contest, which will be held for one week starting Saturday, will work like this: Complete four of eight tasks in your community, like buying breakfast at a local eat-

ery or making a purchase at a local shop, and take a photo of yourself — masked — at each location, along with the product you purchased and your receipt. Then email it to scavengerhunt@nassaucountyny.gov or share it on Facebook. The first person who finishes all four tasks and registers them on each day of the contest will receive a $100 gift card. All purchases must be made at small businesses in a single community on the day of the contest. Online and delivery orders are eligible. The complete set of

letters More praise for doctor’s column To the Editor: As Bob Praver did in last week’s letters, I also applaud Dr. Eric Last’s column, “Surely we shouldn’t be fighting over wearing masks” (Nov. 12-18), on the urgency of wearing masks in fighting the coronavirus

pandemic. But while Last’s exhortation that we must “treat others as you’d want to be treated yourself ” was well-intentioned, I believe it would fall on deaf ears when directed not only at those who, at this late date, scoff at the wearing of masks and social distancing, but also those who deliberately promote and take part in large, illegal social gatherings with no consideration of taking measures to counter the spread

instructions can be found at www.nassaucountygov/shoplocal. As we noted in last week’s editorial, “Remember to shop locally this holiday season”: “Despite the crisis, we encourage you to consider patronizing our mom-and-pop shops, many of which now offer their goods online. Abandoning our local businesses would be devastating on so many levels.”

he coronavirus pandemic has created a variety of hardships that have left families and children in distress. Social isolation. A mounting death toll. An estimated 8 million Americans falling into poverty. We have entered uncharted territory, and uncertainty continues as cases continue to rise across the U.S. Grief is a normal reaction — grieving not just the loss of life, but also the loss of normalcy and freedom when a disaster occurs. So what happens when we add even more stress to families sharon and their children, skariah particularly when schools close? The trickledown effect of all this misfortune can dramatically weigh on kids, especially if they don’t have access to mental health resources at home. Typically, mental health symptoms are identified at school, by their teachers and peers, social workers and guidance counselors. Children need a routine and consistency. Remote learning and social isolation will continue to uproot them. Children

with autism also face challenges with irritability, anxiety and behavioral disturbances. And the erratic nature of schools’ opening and closing (albeit temporarily) can have a lasting effect. A recent study in JAMA Pediatrics showed that more than 22 percent of students in the Hubei province of China reported symptoms of depression, and more than 18 percent had anxiety symptoms, when schools closed for over a month. A second study, in the Journal of Pediatrics, determined that younger children (ages 3 to 6) were more inclined to show fear or clinginess, where older kids (6 to 18) were more likely to show inattention and persistent inquiry. Clinging, inattention and irritability were the severe psychological conditions demonstrated by children in all age groups. School closures — short or long — are unfortunately bound to happen until a safe and effective vaccine is available. Prepare to take care of your child now. First, children need outlets. In early childhood, play is important for development in the physical, verbal and emotional domains. Build that imaginary fort,

LeTTers of the virus. The time for these selfish and greedy individuals to be reasoned with has long passed. These people should be penalized for their actions, which continue to put the rest of us at even greater risk of acquiring the disease, and severe penalties should also be meted out to participants in these gatherings, not just their greed-bound organizers. If anything, these miscreants should consider the 17th-century English poet John Donne’s poem, telling us not to ask “for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee.” They might also be reminded that, indeed, “no man is an island,” as Donne wrote. It appears, though, that they do not realize or accept this concept, even though we are all in this fight — together. ROBERT RUBALSkY East Rockaway

We must protect communities of color To the Editor: The Washington Post last Friday published a new analysis of the impact of Covid-19 on people of color. It reported, “Nearly nine months after the virus exploded in

encourage storytelling, toast s’mores in your backyard. For adolescents, it’s important that they develop their own sense of identity but also explore peer relationships. Encourage this — in a socially distanced, safe way. Second, seek normalcy. The goal is to foster continued development, even if your children can’t attend school in person. They want to feel safe — an important tool for parents to use during the crisis. Make sure you provide protection and consistency in an otherwise uncertain time. Talk to them about their feelings. Ensure their safety by creating an atmosphere of stability. Third, adapt to the environment. Summer may be gone, but you can still enjoy the outdoors safely during the fall, and even on some nice winter days. When the extreme cold sets in, continue building on the elements of safety and fun you have already introduced. Have family game nights. Schedule a movie night. Cook and bake together as a family. Designate a reading hour. Although it may be colder, it’s important to get exercise, so go for a walk or a hike or a brisk bike ride. There are also online exercises for kids, like yoga and others.

Fourth — and most important — pay attention. Younger children can’t always express their distress, anxiety or fear. Their behavior may regress. Look for the signs, which include an increase in crying or neediness, more temper tantrums or somatic symptoms (headaches, stomach aches) than normal. Older children may also show increased anger and irritability. If you think your children or adolescents may need a mental health professional, don’t hesitate. They are acting that way because they need help. So watch out for them to verbalize any suicidal thoughts, ongoing sleep disturbances, a decline in overall functioning (hygiene, grooming), aggression or worsening substance use. If you see these signs, seek treatment. Following these steps may help keep children mentally fit during one of our harshest times. Nothing can replace life as we knew it pre-Covid, but you can manage this new normal and keep your kids safe, too.

She is also an assistant professor at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/ Northwell.

the United States, and amid big treatment strides, the disease continues to ravage African-American and other minority communities with a particular vengeance. Black, Asian, Native American and Hispanic patients still die far more frequently than white patients, even as death rates have plummeted for all races and age groups.” As Covid-19 continues to spread aggressively nationwide, it is crucial that government officials at all levels — federal, state and local — address the disproportionate impact of the pandemic on people of color. Immediate attention should be paid to issues such as the availability of testing facilities in communities of color, access to health care, inequitable treatment once access is provided and priorities for providing vaccines once they are available. The evidence is clear: Government owes it to all Americans to ensure fair and equal access to health care, regardless of race, in this pandemic — and always. ELAINE GROSS President, ERASE Racism
