Woodsburgh resident celebrates 100 years of life jbessen@liherald.com

Turning 100-year-old is a milestone by itself, but Woodsburgh resident Arthur Felthiemer did it twice. Physically born on Feb. 26, 1922, there were complications so a birth certificate was not issued until March 7, his legal birth date. “I feel fortunate,” he said about hitting the century mark. To recognize his longevity and honor his military service, the Village of Woodsburgh organized a birthday parade on Sunday that will begin lining up with the American Legion Riders at Congregation Sons of Israel, at 111 Irving Place, in Woodmere at 1:40 p.m., and will proceed to Felthiemer’s home. The parade “is very meaningful to me, and I feel very honored,” he said. Felthiemer grew up in the Bronx and graduated from DeWitt Clinton High School. Inducted into the Army in January 1943. Assigned to Camp Upton, now the home of Brookhaven National Laboratory. He went onto Harrisburg, Pa., where he learned about airplane engines. He was transferred to Kelly Field in San Antonio for basic training. Assigned to a group for overseas duty he went to Townsville in the Northern part of Australia. Felthiemer was discharged from the military at Fort Dix on Aug. 10, 1944. “Our father is a very private, modest man,” daughter Elaine Beitler wrote in an email, also speaking for her brother

He has the utmost respect for veterans, and sharing a moment like this with them will certainly be a highlight of his life.” Felthiemer attended the Lowell Institute of Technology, now known as the Lowell Technology Institute, in Lowell, Mass. He pursued a career in textile engi-

neering. Felthiemer first worked for the federal government as the assistant chief inspector, where he was in charge of the inspections of all the fabrics that were produced in mills from the eastern seaboard to the Mississippi River. The agency moved to Philadelphia and he joined JP Stevens Textile Corp., where he spent most of his career in textile design and

engineering. Felthiemer worked for half a century and retired in 1990 at 68. He and wife, Harriet, celebrated their 71st wedding anniversary this past January. They met on a blind date arranged by common acquaintances, Elaine said. The couple raised their children in Oceanside and lived there for roughly 42 years. They moved to Woodsburgh in 2002 to be closer to their family. “My husband is a wonderful, good person,” said Harriett, 92. “He deserves every honor and I’m very proud of him.” Elaine said her father did not speak often about his military experience. She said Felthiemer was proud of his service. “His whole life he did the right thing without any desire for recognition,” his son-law Ron Beitler said, “and for other people to recognize his service, is something that he deserves.” Passionate about his family, faith and community, he has been actively involved in each, including the Jewish War Veterans for decades, helping to lead and manage annual barbecues for disabled veterans of all faiths in Queens and Long Island. Felthiemer favors classical music, is an avid reader, and he and Harriet spend much time with their family. “We’ve watched our grandfather give back to veterans all our lives, it’s a beautiful full circle moment to watch him being honored for his service now,” said granddaughter Jamie Beitler.

Isseroff named a 2022 distinguished teacher By JEFFREY BESSEN jbessen@liherald.com

The Harvard Club of Long Island named Longtime Lawrence High School chemistry teacher Rebecca Isseroff a Distinguished Teacher of 2022. “This award honors middle and high school teachers who have profoundly influenced their students’ lives,” Dr. Judith Esterquest, chair of the Distinguished Teacher Selection Committee, said in a news release. “Dedicated teachers like Mrs. Isseroff inspire Long Island students to excel, to become passionate about learning, and to recognize the value of hard work. These teachers devote countless hours to creating better futures for our children.” Teaching for nearly 30 years, including the past 18 years at Lawrence High, Isseroff is known for guiding students with high-level science research projects over the years for the prestigious Intel Science Talent Search, Siemens and Regeneron competitions, the professional Materials Research Society, as well as the renowned Stony Brook Garcia Research Center. “I feel deeply honored to be named as a Distinguished Teacher, but frankly, there are so many teachers in our schools who also deserve this honor, especially while continuing to teach during these past two years under extremely adverse conditions due to Covid,” Isseroff wrote in an email. “And so, I’d like to share and spread this recognition and honor to all the teachers on Long Island who have endured and kept up their enthusiasm of disseminating knowledge to our students. Kudos to all of you! She began teaching in 1994 and has taught at Stella K. Abraham High School for Girls in Hewlett Bay Park and Rambam Mesivta High School in Lawrence. Isseroff has also mentored science students at the Hebrew Academy

Her impact on the learners under her care sets them up for future successes.” Isseroff earned her bachelor’s degree in chemistry from Brooklyn College and earned her master’s in sec-

ondary education for chemistry at night and on weekends from Adelphi University. Working with her students she has co-authored and published more than 20 research papers in professional peer-reviewed journals and shares four patents with students. Isseroff is also listed in the Who’s Who Among America’s Teachers, is in the National Academy of Inventors, the Long Island Technology Hall of Fame, was named a New York State Woman of Distinction and won the Nichols Foundation Award. “Mrs. Isseroff ’s selflessness and diligence reveal that it is teachers like her who make major differences in student’s lives, distinctly my life,” Daniela Andrade, a 2021 Lawrence High graduate said in the release. “Her dedication was inspiring and motivating, and I credit major aspects of my success to her,” adding that Isseroff ’s “commitment to her student’s success was remarkable and significant.” Andrade is expected to graduate from Harvard College in 2025. Isseroff will be honored at a virtual awards ceremony on April 2, along with seven other teachers from across Long Island.

Obituary By LISA MARGARIA lmargaria@liherald.com

Longtime Lawrence resident Howard Siskind served as a village trustee, a Parks Commission chairman and a president of the Men’s Club at the Lawrence Yacht & Country Club. He died on Feb. 14. He was 80. Considered charismatic by family and friends, who remember him as a welldressed, generous person who loved golf, Siskind, who lived in Lawrence since 1969, was known to his family as “Bops, and was a devoted husband, father and grandfather. As the retired co-owner of Bernette Textiles, a knitwear company which was in located in the Empire State Building and founded by his father, Jack, Siskind made bold statements with his style choices. He always wore a pocket square, had a collection of ties that needed their own closet, and wore “elegant dress shoes,” his daughter Marcy wrote in an email He examined clothes thoroughly and described the intricacies of the stitch and fabric. He took his daughters shopping and, when they got married, he would do the same for his sons-in-law. Longtime friend, William Henry, met Siskind at the Lawrence Golf Club.

LonGtIMe LAwRence ReSIdent Howard Siskind died on Feb. 14. He served the village as a trustee and a Parks Commission chairman. Though Siskind played golf from the time he was a boy until his late 70s, “Raising money [for charity] was his hobby,”

Henry said. Siskind was a former trustee of the International Multiple Sclerosis Management Practice, a multiple sclerosis research center, which honored him for fundraising. He also fundraised for St. John’s Episcopal Hospital in Far Rockaway with golf tournaments at the Lawrence club to raise money. “He generosity expended to smaller, less recognized gestures as well,” Marcy stated. “When his beloved caddie developed brain cancer, he paid for treatment and then for his funeral. He paid to send our long-time housekeeper’s body to Alabama after her passing so that she could be buried in her hometown, and paid for that funeral too. He was loyal to people in all aspects of his life, and he wanted to help when things got tough for others.” Siskind greeted all golf club employees by name, stood up to who disrespected women and canceled his lifelong dream trip to golf in Scotland to be here for his son-in-law Jonathan Weiss’ cancer surgery. He lent friends clothing from his extensive wardrobe, made detailed speeches and eulogies at weddings and funerals, constantly touched base with his daughters and granddaughters and was always the first to listen and celebrate other people’s achievements first.

As a village trustee, in the early 2000s,“He was instrumental in helping us with the village of Lawrence in getting funding for our EMS program [in 2002],” For mer Lawrence-Cedarhurst Fire Department Chief David Campbell said. Marcy said her father was “larger than life” recalling that when he drove her up to Colgate University for the first time as a freshman in his red sports car – he only drove red cars – “he hired an off-duty police detective to drive the van containing my belongings – they carried guns and didn’t hide it,” Marcy said, “and the other kids thought my dad was really something.” “We could not have asked for a more loving, proud dad - he cherished each of us and was always up to date on the minutia of our lives,” Marcy said. “He was one of a kind and steadfastly devoted to the people he loved.” He is survived by his wife of nearly 60 years, Linda (“Lindy Loo”), and daughters, Marcy and Hillary, and by his three granddaughters – which he nicknamed his “singular sensations” – Jordan (“Jordo”) Truly (“‘Trulster”) and Frankie (“Franklyn”). And by Hillary’s husband and son-in-law, Jeremy Holgerson. He predeceased by Marcy’s husband, Jonathan Weiss (“Jonny Boy”).

‘Woman in white,’ Bernyce Alpert Winick, 99 By JEFFREY BESSEN jbessen@liherald.com

Known to many as “the lady in white” Bernyce Alpert Winick, who wore white-colored clothes, left behind a grand legacy as an artist, author, fashion designer, pianist, photographer and a person who aimed to help others. The longtime Woodmere resident died on Feb. 17. She was 99. Born in Brooklyn on Oct. 20, 1922, Alpert grew up on Crown Street and was part of the unique group of women in her generation that attended college. She graduated from New York University in 1943 with a Bachelor of Arts degree. A member of the American Water Color Society, Winick created award-winning paintings in acrylics, oils and water colors. “She has gifted us a legacy of paintings,” said daughter, Lauren Rapoport, about the many pieces of art Winick left her family. World War II interrupted her life as Herbert Winick, who became Bernyce’s husband – they were childhood sweethearts meeting when she was 16 and he was 17 as their families were friends – halted his education to serve in the Army. They were married in 1944. Six years later, the couple moved to the brand new Saddle Ridge residential development in Woodmere. Lauren said her parents were one of the first houses in an area that still had dirt roads. Herbert completed his education at Harvard University and became a tax attorney. Winick made fashionable looking paper dolls as a child, Lauren said, and that inspired her interest fashion. Winick studied fashion design at the Traphagen

The school closed in 1991. She designed a coat worn by a young Caroline Kennedy. Winick used art as a way to help others, especially children. Lauren recalled the large art studio her mother had in the back of the house and how many neighbor-

hood kids would be in the studio learning painting. “She would try to make an impact with everyone,” Lauren said. Her artwork included realism, impressionist and abstract styles. Attuned to the creative connection between music and art, Winick was also a talented pianist who studied for 15 years with the famed Stecher and Horowitz Schools of the Arts in Cedarhurst, founded by Melvin Stecher and Norman Horowitz. The school closed in 1999. Winick, a member of the Woodmere Music Club, performed locally. Roughly 20 years ago, she became interested in photography and took film photos of varied scenes and people and created photo collages. Ahead of the curve when it came to blending eating healthy and physical activity to stimulate creativity, Winick wrote a book, “My Treasured Lifestyle: 88 Years of Nutrition, Exercise and the Arts,” that was published in 2012. The 76-page book has a four-star Amazon site rating. A book description read, “… will guide the reader in the ways of living a healthy lifestyle which will improve longevity and increase energy through healthy nutrition and exercise.”. Compliments inspired more creativity and never veered into arrogance, Lauren said. “She liked the accolades, thrived on them, but really did deserve them,” Lauren said.

Michael hinMan, who spent the past five years as editor of the Pulitzer Prizewinning Riverdale Press, is the new executive editor of the Herald Community Newspapers. Nassau Herald Senior Editor Jeff Bessen has become the Heralds’ new deputy editor.

rural Pennsylvania, Hinman spent most of his adult life in central Florida. His work ranged from neighborhood newspapers like the Zephyrhills News and The Laker, to the larger Sunbelt Newspaper division of The Tampa Tribune. He also spent years as a real estate reporter for the Tampa Bay Business Journal, as well as the Sarasota-based Business Observer. During his time with the Business Journal, Hinman won a top business reporting award from the Society of Professional Journalists for his series of stories focused on the failed Trump Tower Tampa project. “Our communities are filled with stories just waiting to be told,” Hinman said. “This is why neighborhood Bessen newspapers like the Heralds are so vital. We are renewing our mission to find those stories and share them — to inform you, to help you, and hopefully even make you smile from time to time.” Before his tenure covering the Five Towns, Bessen was editor of the Islip Bulletin and Suffolk County News, which covered several communities on Suffolk County’s South Shore. Bessen has won a number of awards from the New York Press Association and the Press Club of Long Island over the years, most recently as the Press Club’s runner-up for non-local news and features in 2021, and for narrative in-depth reporting/series in 2020. “The Heralds have always had the community in mind when producing their award-winning stories,” Bessen said. “We aim to deepen that commitment with a stronger focus on the broader issues — such as politics — that impact our readers.”

Celebrate Purim safely, watch underage drinking By SUSAN BLAUNER nassaueditor@liherald.com

Purim is a time of celebration and festivities but in recent years has also become an opportunity for dangerous behaviors with devastating outcomes. Saving Lives Five Towns Drug & Alcohol Coalition and Hatzalah of the Rockaways and Nassau County have joined together for an urgent community-wide “Purim 2022 – Let’s Unmask Underage Drinking” campaign, to make a difference now. Purim is right around the corner. It is very important for parents to know how to talk to their teens about underage drinking and substance misuse, which should not be a one-time effort but, rather, an ongoing conversation. Be a positive role model. Any type of discussion about teenage drinking is most effective when it comes from a strong and caring relationship. Conversations are more influential when parents are responsible about their own drinking. Kids learn best by example. Parents should set a positive model on Purim for their children and not drink to excess. Keep the lines of communication open and create family rules which should include not drinking alcohol before the age of 21 and not getting into a car when the driver has been drinking. Teens need to learn to think for themselves. If they come up with rules and regulations for their own behavior, they are more likely to stick with them. Before Purim and any other social event where there might be drinking make sure to go over the rules that you have put in place with your teens. Be Your Teens Safety Net Know your teens where-

Remind them that they can call you at any time if they feel they are in an uncomfortable situation. Reassure them that you will not be angry, just happy that they called you when they needed you. Teens need us to be supportive and loving as they move through these years towards adulthood. Talking to them in respectful ways about tough issues and having those

rules in place can help. There is no mitzvah on Purim to drink irresponsibly and unfortunately, there continues to be an increasing problem of alcohol, marijuana, and other substance misuse among Jewish adolescents. Youth who start drinking before the age of 15 are more than five times more likely to become alcohol dependent as adults, according to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse & Alcoholism. Discussions about drinking should also include information about the harms of drinking and driving. One out of four fatal teen car accidents involve underage drinking and driving, according to figures from flteensafedriver.org. Teenagers should be aware that alcohol is a depressant, causes disinhibition and intoxication, impairs thinking and coordination, and can lead to possible alcohol poisoning and death. Please call your local houses of worship and schools to encourage active participation and discussion in this vital Underage Drinking Campaign. If you suspect that your teenager is drinking secretly or may have a drinking problem, please contact his or her pediatrician, school counselor, or another health professional. Saving Lives Five Towns Coalition, under the auspices of the Marian & Aaron Gural JCC, is here to assist and can refer you or your teen for the professional help you may need. Join our coalition and become a part of Saving Lives! Call (516) 569-6733 or go to savinglives5townscoalition.org. Wishing you and the entire community a safe and joyous Purim.

Community Center retains its vitality at Five Towns schools including the Franklin Early Childhood Center and Hewlett Elementary School. Hill came to the community center in November 2019. Barely four months later he was managing operations amid a pandemic. “I think I had great ideas coming into this position in terms of activities for the building and interactions with the community,” he said. “Unfortunately, Covid put the kibosh on that. And I had to switch roles, and I went from working with my staff one on one to keeping everyone safe and getting our staff set up for remote work.” One interaction with the community that continues is the center’s food pantry. Run by Inwood resident Sasha Young, the Herald’s 2020 Person of the Year, Gammy’s Pantry, which has been supplemented by a partnership with Long Island Cares since June 2020, continues to help feed people who have lost their jobs, had their hours reduced, fallen ill or, during the pandemic, were caring for a sick family member. Hill stresses that the pantry remained open throughout. Along with Long Island Cares, the pantry has partnerships with local organizations, including the Cedarhurst-based Rock and Wrap It Up! and stores such as Trader Joe’s. The pantry had more than 4,000 families registered as of late last year, Young said.

The Five Towns Community Center hosted Inwood Unity Day last summer. Above, the Pizza Dance Band — from left, Amelio Morelli, Nino Gugliemo and Tony Modica — performed at the fair. The center also fulfills a need for recreational and social-services programs. A revitalized Police Activity League program began in 2021 offering activities ranging from arts and crafts to basketball. “I think it’s a wonderful, wonderful additional resource for our young people,” Hill said, noting the support of Nassau County Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder. “It also builds bridges between law enforcement and young people,” Hill added, “which is vital, in my opinion.” The center also hosts the annual

Inwood Unity Day celebration, a variety of health fairs and seasonal holiday events, and there is a community garden and a summer camp. Helping people fight substance addiction, the Center’s Committee on Drug Abuse offers family and group psychological and social counseling with the goal to work to address to the addiction, behavior and their emotions. A unique twist is peer counseling. Those who have battled addiction and its associated hardships work with CODA’s clinicians to counsel clients.

Inwood resident Helen Hunter, 82, has been involved with the community center since she was a child. She was 6 or 7, she said, when she attended a summer camp run through the settlement house years ago, and recalled activities like crocheting, knitting and macramé. She retired from teaching at the center in July 2011. Not long afterward, Hunter got a call asking her to fill in for a day. She’s still filling in. “I’ve done a lot — I just can’t hardly remember a lot of the things I’ve done,” Hunter said. “I loved the dances that they had there, and I was always involved with that. I was just always there, available like I am right now. You can call me and I say OK, I’ll be there.” Connecting the past with the present, Hill said that just as the trade school helped assimilate immigrants who came to the U.S. in the early 20th century, the community center is now educating a new generation of immigrants. “Some people — many people in the country have struggles of their own, and it’s harder for them to maybe lift their hand for another individual,” Hill said, describing the center as [“??]a beacon of hope, a beacon of promise.” “So I feel very fortunate that the agency is here. And as an individual, that I’m able to extend a hand and help those that are in need.” Have story about the Five Towns Community Center and the role it has played in your life?

Kaufman had good memories, and others that really showed his resolve. Like during Hurricane Sandy, the 2012 storm where Salomon praised Kaufman for helping the community get though to the other side. And now it’s Salomon’s turn — something Kaufman was quite optimistic about in his resignation letter, noting that “I leave the village in very capable hands.”

“Steven cared about the village deeply, and his tenure in office was defined by integrity and compassion. He will be sorely missed,” Trustee Gail Rubel said. “I have been a trustee with Alex Solomon for many years, and I expect Alex will continue in Steve’s legacy, and serve the village honorably.” Salomon told the board in an email that, as mayor, he intends to “continue the legacy of tranquility and park-like living for our residents.

Putin will always want more Obsession, by its nature, is never satisfied. Always wanting more, getting more. Obstacles only make the need grow stronger. Putin turns 70 this year. Will he die without accomplishing what he set out to do? Never! He must leave behind a strong legacy. He must rewrite history by reversing the breakup of the Soviet Union. He’s got to rebuild the old empire. Never satisfied with what he has, he’ll continue to pursue more. Taking what he believes should be his, justifying his pursuit of more by saying it belongs to us (to me). Obsession, with an intense focus on one concern, inevitably creates blindness to other concerns. He thought it would be easy. No resistance. Why should there be? He’s entitled. If he wins in Ukraine, it won’t end there. Gaining more ground leads to wanting still more. Obstacles make the obsession stronger. If he fears losing ground, he might take extreme action. He’s already threatened the use of nuclear power. He can never let it just be. The nature of obsession is you rigidly hold on; you don’t let go! Look at Trump. He’s still saying the election was stolen. He’s still nursing resent-

ment and conspiracy theories. This void in Putin’s self creates a bottomless pit of entitlement. He cannot be reasonable. He’ll never listen to the other side. As he issues commands to the military to keep pressing on, he’s silently praising himself for the brilliant job he’s doing, making his entitlement known as the world watches. How did Putin get to be this way? His father was seriously injured in World War II. His mother worked inda many hours in a factory; yet the family often didn’t have enough to eat. His two older brothers died before he was born. Growing up in a poor home, small for his age, he was picked on and bullied. He waged war against rats that infested his bleak, dilapidated apartment. Life was punishing, begrudging him even the basics. He became a street kid, left to form his own character. He studied martial arts to toughen up, becoming a black belt. An ambitious teen, he was never satisfied with what he had. Yet, he was always controlled, never showing

emotion. Do most kids who grow up like Putin become obsessive, never feeling that they’ve done enough, that they are enough? Of course not. Indeed, some become quite empathetic, knowing what it’s like to grow up in a disadvantaged environment. Others, however, want to erase their past by gaining power. Yet, it’s never enough power. They’re always in search of more. Putin’s been nursing apadin grievances he desperately wants to overturn. Failing is not an option. He must emerge victorious. Despite displaying a calm exterior, an intense interior is pressing on. He’s obsessed about leaving a glorious legacy. Returning the Soviet Union to the way it used to be. The way it should be. Will this be his Waterloo? The goddess Fortuna is unpredictable. Despite all he does to fortify his obsession, Fortuna may scream ENOUGH! ENOUGH! — while spinning the wheel in the opposite direction. Time will tell.

Person to Person

“Nothing is enough for the man to whom enough is too little.” Epicurus My son Glenn lived in Russia during the time of Perestroika, working for the US Aid for International Development. His mission was to help the Russian people learn about capitalism, that it’s not a crime to make a profit. The first time we visited, there was only one restaurant in St. Petersburg manned by armed guards, with no menu. You sat down and ate what they gave you. When we visited three years later, there were Barbie doll stores. Yes, the Russian people learned quickly! After his mission in Russia was completed, he was sent to Ukraine, then Uganda. I visited those countries too and have very fond memories. Hence, my heart breaks not only for the Ukrainians but for the Russian soldiers sent there with no choice in the matter. ©2022 Linda Sapadin, Ph.D., psychologist, coach and author specializes in helping people overcome procrastination, anxiety and fear.

Whose fault is it?

March 10, 2022 — NASSAU HERALD

It is almost a universal truism that nothing is harder to find than a needle in a haystack. So too, it’s pretty difficult to find your one true love or to find your way or even find Waldo. Indeed, everyone agrees it’s not so easy to find the time or to find something to do or to find something to wear. Yup, ours is a world where finding just about anything, whether it be an apartment or a parking space or a comfortable pair of shoes, is just not easy. Truth be told, there is just one thing that appears to be incredibly easy for a great many folks to find … and that is, finding fault. Finding f ault with what’s been done (or not done), what’s been said (or not said), what’s been included (or omitted) is a on Herculean task that somehow some folks joyfully pursue like a hobby or a game or a sport. For some, finding fault with those with whom they live or work comes naturally as they conveniently overlook a million good qualities or kindness, and zoom in on a specific idiosyncrasy or mistake or real (or perceived) slight. Others need to search for and then “find” the fault with the intensity of a predator who latches onto its prey and then won’t let it go.

In both cases, such folks are not so much observers of the human condition as they are critical investigators of human frailty. They find genuine satisfaction in finding the fault, in discovering something to criticize, in uncovering a defect, and then carping or fussing or nagging or lapsing into anger or grudge or silence. They disag ree with Shakespeare and find fault lies not in themselves but in their stars, or in the stars of others or in others who are stars. They might also take umbrage with the Greek philosopher Plutarch who observed “to find fault is easy; to do better may be difficult,” and ignore Henry Ford who advised, “Don’t find fault, find a remedy.” Anyway, I recently asked my college friend oldman Percy, who is geologist to describe a “geological fault.” He explained that a geological fault occurs when stress builds up and rocks break due to the forces acting on them, thereby causing a destructive earthquake. He added that it’s no fun being a fault finder. Indeed, it isn’t. Nor is being in the company of one or being one … but, I guess, that’s nobody’s fault.

Hebrew AcAdemy of Long Beach eighth-graders who captured first, second and third place in the school’s fifth annual History Day Fair.

HALB eighth-graders know their history The Hebrew Academy of Long Beach held its fifth annual History Day Fair last month and had 14 eighth-graders in three different categories with winning projects. The fair is a part of a national history competition known as National History Day. Students present their historical projects and compete against each other in diverse categories. More than half a million students come compete annually. Each year the topics changes. This year it was “Debate and Diplomacy: Successes, Failures, and Consequences.” Students are given the freedom to choose whichever moment in history they would like, and even the type of project they would like to do such as an exhibit, a performance or a research paper. HALB’s student projects consisted of documentaries, exhibits and websites. The winners advance to the Long Island History Fair competition. Through the projects, the students learn how to develop and expand time management skills, org anization,

research and collaboration, along with the about the importance of debate, and the various types of diplomacy that exist to foster relationships between nations. Under the guidance of social studies teacher Kristen Waterman, the students have worked for the past five months on their projects. They researched historical events from the 1840s and the 1970s. Winning Documentary: “The Auschwitz Protocols: Creating a Debate and Sparking Diplomatic Action” by Isaac Cohen, Dovid Feldhamer, Sammy Rosenblatt, Yehoshua Wiesel and Daniel Wohlgelernter.

impressed that your lawyer is concerned that the issues you described are complicated. I’m used to everyone who doesn’t regularly address plans and applications having a simplistic view of the process. It isn’t uncommon for owners asking building departments or their lawyers about what is needed and then telling onte eeper me they only need a “sketch” to make an application. The word sketch makes the whole issue sound simpler, faster and cheaper, but is far from the reality. If a sketch were provided, it would only be for something like a fence permit, where some building departments let the owner write on their property survey. What the building department forgets to tell you is that surveys are legal documents that usually have a statement on them that it’s illegal to alter them. I’m sure surveyors wouldn’t include that statement if they didn’t mean it, but that statement is all too often completely ignored. Your attorney is correct that even moving a fence so the survey shows the fence on the property line is complicated. I rarely hear of neighbors volunteering to move a fence that has been there for many years. It usually sets up a bad relationship when new neighbors move in and start asking to up-heave their neighbor’s lives. Finished basements are no less of a dilemma, since your municipality, like most, won’t allow bedrooms or kitchens in basements. Many people put these rooms in, waiting to see if anyone ever says a word, which is why I have to tell people their neighbors up and down the street may have a kitchen and bedrooms in the basement, but none of them are actually legal. I know that isn’t what you wanted to hear, especially since you felt the pressure to go into a contract for the house. I’ve often said to people buying a house that I wish it was part of the transaction, as common as a home inspection, often called an “engineer’s report” (even though most people inspecting the house aren’t engineers), that someone with code and zoning knowledge should examine the premises and survey to address potential problems before you go into contract. Good luck!

and it has a lot of violations. The owner says it’s “as is” and will not take care of the violations before we take the house. One of the violations is for a finished basement we would like to put two bedrooms in, and a kitchen for when we entertain. Another is for a fence that our new survey says is 1½ feet into the property, which our attorney says is complicated because the neighbor, whom we have never met, might not be so responsive to giving back the property. We really have no choice, since we’re already in contract, but does this sound like the big problem our lawyer says it is?

to todAy’s puzzle

opINIoNS

e live in a world where sports matchups of almost any kind are totally unpredictable. Whether it’s football, baseball, basketball or hockey, a game is frequently decided in the final minutes or seconds. In the legal world, many cases can go either way as well, depending on the law or the facts. But there’s one place where, it’s safe to say, in many key cases, the score will be 6-3. I refer to the United States Supreme Court. In the next four JERRY months, the court will be making KREMER decisions on such topics as abortion, affirmative action, immigration, gun rights and congressional redistricting. You don’t need a scorecard to figure out what the results are likely to be, because several of the nine justices have telegraphed their views to the outside world long before the cases will be argued in front of them. A look back at history shows that this isn’t the first court majority whose legal

views were well known to the outside world. From 1953 to 1969, the court was led by Chief Justice Earl Warren. Unlike any before it, the Warren Court dramatically expanded civil rights, civil liberties and the powers of the court itself. It ended racial segregation and state-sanctioned prayer in public schools, ensured equal representation in state legislatures and paved the way for the legalization of abortion. The Warren Court was one of the more liberal courts in judicial history. In contrast, the court led by Chief Justice William Rehnquist, from 1986 to 2005, moved to the right, giving states more power, striking down provisions of the Violence Against Women Act and, in 2000, famously ruling that George W. Bush had been elected president. To the surprise of many, the Rehnquist Court upheld Roe v. Wade, which granted women the right to have an abortion. Given the fact that this court had among its members Antonin Scalia, Sandra Day O’Connor, Clarence Thomas and Anthony Kennedy, it’s no wonder that it was unpredictable when it handed down rulings on cases with strong nationwide

interest. The current court is headed by Chief Justice John Roberts, but it is dominated by five justices who have already made clear where they stand on cases already argued and yet to come. Last September, Justice Amy Coney Barrett, speaking at the University of Louisiana, said that the court is “not a bunch of partisan hacks.” She warned that “justices must be hyper-vigilant to make sure that they are not letting their personal biases creep into their decisions.” She made that speech after voting to uphold a Texas law that bars abortions after six weeks. Anyone who believes that Justices Barrett and Thomas are independent thinkers is mistaken. In 2006, Barrett, then a law professor at Notre Dame, signed a full-page ad in the South Bend (Ind.) Tribune by St. Joseph County Right to Life, stating that it was “time to put an end to the barbaric legacy of Roe v. Wade and restore laws that protect the lives of unborn children.” At her congressional confirmation hearing, she waffled, saying only that Roe v. Wade had been affirmed many times. This spring, when the court rules on a

ver the next four months, the justices are set to make some huge decisions.

Mississippi law prohibiting abortions after 15 weeks, you don’t have to guess where Barrett will stand. The court’s longest-serving justice is Clarence Thomas. According to The New Yorker, Thomas’s wife, Virginia, is involved with a number of organizations that file briefs before the court opposing affirmative action and abortion, favoring gun rights and offering strong opinions on many other current cases. One of the cases now before the court is a suit by the New York State Rifle & Pistol Association to overturn a New York City law that places limits on carrying guns outside the home. Thomas’s expected opinion, to throw out the law, won’t help Mayor Eric Adams in his efforts to curb gun violence. During my career as an attorney, I have always had the greatest respect for our judiciary and the court system in general. But it saddens me to think that some of the most consequential cases in our lifetime are destined to be decided by that 6-3 margin. Jerry Kremer was a state assemblyman for 23 years, and chaired the Assembly’s Ways and Means Committee for 12 years. He now heads Empire Government Strategies, a business development and legislative strategy firm. Comments about this column? JKremer@liherald.com.

As the pandemic pushes past two years, where are we?

othing like the threat of World War III, and a red-hot nuclear reactor, to focus one’s attention. After more than two years of obsessively parsing the news about the global pandemic ravaging the world, we now have an escalating war in Eastern Europe to distract us. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia has eclipsed the grim coverage of people sick and dying of a runaway virus. Now we have 24/7 coverage of people fleeing and dying in a firestorm let loose RANDI by a runaway KREISS Vladimir Putin. Irony abounds. We were blindsided by Covid and blindsided by Russia, although there was plenty of evidence in both cases that something bad was coming down. In this moment, the two global events are creating a kind of whipsaw effect, with our battered psyches in the middle. In the past few weeks, as Covid restrictions loosened, I wasn’t ready to join the party. It seems that very young

children and older people are still vulnerable to getting sick, possibly very sick. The difficult piece of this is that the protocol for any one individual is, well, individual. Americans aren’t good at nuance, but that’s what we need for now. How much risk do I take, and when and why? When will it be safe to go to a wedding or a funeral? Many of us have stopped thinking at all about the coronavirus, because we’re creatures of the news cycle, and the news has moved on to Ukraine. It creates our reality: what we think about, what we talk about and what we worry about. For many of us, the constant stream of “breaking news,” whether it was about the pandemic for the past two years, or now, the Russian invasion, is a nonstop anxiety machine. The day 24/7 news became a thing was the day we enslaved ourselves and our sense of well-being to an outside force. Sometimes the coverage feeds on itself, reporters interviewing other reporters, and anchors hosting the same military talking heads all day and all night long, the same “news” repeated again and again.

I am rarely in a situation these days, whether out with a friend or gathering with family, that someone isn’t beeped and dinged with “breaking news.” This is the pandemic that will do us in. In just these two weeks, we have traded our addiction to Covid news for minute-to-minute coverage of one country blowing another country to bits. Wherever I look, people are staring, transfixed, at their phones, like players in a dystopian science fiction story come true. As we move into the third year of the pandemic (which clearly is not over and the first weeks of the Russian onslaught, we need to ground ourselves. That means time away from the news. As we move toward spring and the hope of warmer weather, we need to get up and out again, walking or biking or driving to someplace with open spaces. The signs of spring are always life-affirming, but you won’t find them on Fox or CNN. Get to the beach or walk around the block, and before you do, leave your buddy at home. That would be the phone, which can survive very nicely on its own while you live for a while in your own

here will never be a new normal. It will be something else, but what?

head. Refreshed, we can carry on through this rough patch as we figure out how to stay safe and how to think about this war in Eastern Europe. We do not travel light. We carry the memory of nearly one million Americans who died of Covid. We ventured out the other evening to sit in an outside tented area of a restaurant. It wasn’t perfect. It felt strange to wait for food, and I was impatient. This isn’t a new normal, I realize. There will never be a new normal. It will be something else, and we aren’t there yet. As we begin Year Three of the pandemic and continue Month One of the Ukraine invasion, we must turn off the noise and find some quiet space to think. Many of us need to restore our faith in the future. I grew up just expecting everything to be fine, and then there were the assassinations and the Vietnam War. Today teenagers are worrying about a draft or another pandemic. Comfort does not come from the media or any outside source. It comes from within, in its own time, when we find reason to believe again in the possibility of a peaceful future in a healthy world. Copyright 2022 Randi Kreiss.

Sunshine Week is all about open government

hen James Madison assembled fellow members of his Virginia delegation in 1787, few of them knew what was up his sleeve. What they did know was that the Articles of Confederation — the law of the land since 1781 — simply wasn’t working. Madison surprised all of them, revealing that they weren’t fixing the Articles, but replacing them. The Virginia Plan, as it was called, would become the blueprint for what followed, earning Madison the moniker “Father of the Constitution.” But the man who would become the fourth president of the United States is actually responsible for something far greater: the Bill of Rights, the 10 constitutional amendments that guarantee a number of freedoms like that of religion, assembly — and the press. That’s why journalists celebrate Madison’s birthday — March 16 — as part of “Sunshine Week,” a national initiative created by the American Society of News Editors to educate all of us about the importance of open government, and how dangerous excessive and unnecessary secrecy from our leaders can be. It serves as a reminder that government agencies should be accessible and accountable to their constituents, and should encourage input from that very public. The First Amendment protects journalistic freedom, but we have had to depend on other laws — like President Lyndon B.

letters Picking and choosing on quality of life? To the Editor: It is ironic that our Republican and Democratic officials claim they are protecting the environment and our “suburban quality of life” by opposing Gov. Kathy Hochul’s affordable housing plan in the 2022-23 state budget. Are our elected officials fighting to close and clean the Brookhaven Landfill, which has been dumping toxins into the predominantly Black and Latino community of North Bellport since 1974? Are Long Island representatives decrying the proposed zoning changes and a Winters Bros. plan to bring in 6,000 tons of garbage every day, right next to the aforementioned landfill? Where was the opposition while developers constructed luxury condominiums throughout Glen Cove and Glenwood Landing, further congesting traffic? We cannot cherry-pick when the environ-

Johnson’s Freedom of Information Act — to ensure that government truly is transparent by guaranteeing access to government documents. More often than not, we hear about media organizations — like the Heralds — lifting these veils of secrecy. But this isn’t a privilege of a select few; open records are a right for everyone. Sunshine Week is recognized each year by open-government advocates, local libraries, schools and other civic-minded organizations, which discuss government accessibility through news stories, opinion columns, blogs, web pages, seminars, editorial cartoons and even paid advertisements. Without open government, much of what you see in these pages simply wouldn’t be possible. Crime reporting? No. In-depth investigative pieces? Not a chance. Court proceedings? Legislative sessions? City council hearings? Board of education meetings? Only what leaders would choose to share. Laws mandating open meetings and open records give all of us the right to delve deeply into the activities of local, county, state and federal officials, and to draw our own conclusions about whether the people we vote into office are truly doing their jobs representing us. Despite all this progress toward transparency, there are constant efforts by the very officials mandated to provide this access to instead pull it back into darkness. Florida journalists created what grew into Sunshine Week two decades

ago, when the legislature there looked to pass hundreds of laws that would curtail such transparency. And there’s still much work to be done closer to home. New York agencies that don’t provide access to information and documents face the threat of lawsuits, but rarely actually suffer through them since few individuals or organization that would file them have the resources to go to court. Other states have created affordable (or even free) arbitration resolution methods. New York isn’t one of them. But things are changing. Last December, Gov. Kathy Hochul signed into law a measure requiring public hearings on issues in front of select state departments like Education and Environmental Conservation whenever 125 or more people petition state lawmakers for them. It also requires those hearings be held in the evenings and on weekends, allowing more people to attend. The meetings must also be broadcast, and teleconferencing must be an option. The law goes a long way in implementing new opportunities for meaningful public participation in governmental decision-making. It will do nothing less than help shift the balance of power from the government to the people. But it’s only a start. There is no such thing as too much transparency when it comes to government. A true democracy is leadership by the people, not a select few. And it’s the people that must continue to hold those who represent us accountable.

opinions

he unfolding situation in Ukraine and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Package. These seemingly unrelated topics help frame the realtime battle between authoritarianism and democracy that is boiling up in the pot of world debate. If we are going to reduce crime, cut taxes and help our troubled schools, we have a lot of work to do to make sure that democracy wins. Last fall, President Biden told members of Congress that both Russian President Vladimir Putin Tom and Chinese leader Xi Jinping had sUoZZi told him that they “don’t think democracy can accomplish big things in this world of social media and the 24-hour news cycle.” Russia and China believe that America, and democracies generally, are too divided. They don’t think we can accomplish

big things anymore, and that they can. Today’s division in Washington, Albany and governments across the country is hurting us. Elected officials pander to their base. The battles waged on Twitter and Facebook seep out into every part of our lives. Cable news talking heads pit Americans against one another, finding wedge issues that make us believe there’s more that divides us than unites us. Even more concerning are the efforts by our foreign adversaries to sow disinformation and civil unrest using the very platforms that they curtail in their own countries. Can we still do big things with so much dissent? A few months ago, we passed the largest ever investment in infrastructure in history — $1.2 trillion — and it was bipartisan. As vice chair of the Problem Solvers Caucus, I helped negotiate this oncein-a-generation infrastructure package. We overcame all of the rancor and division to pass a bill that will send billions

he record investment in infrastructure was bipartisan, and should be a model to follow.

Gillen would be best Rice replacement To the Editor: As a moderate-progressive-liberal Republican, a rare breed in today’s extremist constellation of cultists tethered to the chicanery and shenanigans of our discredited, thoroughly unfit 45th president, I am delighted to cross the partisan Rubicon to endorse the candidacy of our former Town of Hempstead supervisor, Laura gillen, in the 4th Congressional District to succeed U.S. Rep. Kathleen Rice, who is stepping down. Along with her considerable experience, gillen brings a welcoming, inclusive style to governing, fully aware that politics is an honorable calling, not an exclusive opportunity to reward supporters and punish critics. Her formal nomination in a winning primary battle will advance her candidacy to the finals, Election Day on Nov. 8. Let’s send someone to Washington who will support our new, better President Joe Biden’s Build Back Better agenda. ASHER MATAHIAS Woodmere

of dollars to New York — with the state set to receive $13 billion in funding for roads and bridges; $24 billion for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, including the Long Island Rail Road and New York City’s subways; over $1.4 billion for water and sewer system upgrades; and almost a billion more for much-needed airport upgrades and climate resiliency. The bipartisan infrastructure bill is real-life stuff that will rebuild our state and put millions of people to work. When it passed, however, it only received news coverage for a week, at most. It wasn’t one of the most highly viewed posts on social media, and no videos of Biden signing the legislation went viral. But if you ask everyday New Yorkers what they want from their elected officials, they will typically say they “want to see results.” Pandering to the base, Twitter likes, sound bites and saying outrageous things

to go viral or get booked on cable news shows won’t solve problems or improve people’s lives. This type of good I speak of is still possible. Working across party lines, Democrats and Republicans, progressives and moderates need to put the good of the people first. We are at a turning point. Americans — and New Yorkers — are sick and tired of the finger-pointing, the pandering and the division. Our government can do big, important things, and help solve problems to reduce crime, cut taxes, and help transform our troubled schools. But to do that, we must root out those who seek to divide us — those in public office, on social media, on cable news, as well as foreign adversaries who oppose our democracy and wish to sow civil unrest and do us harm. With our eyes wide open, we can and will succeed, because most of us want the same things: to help people and make the world better. U.S. Rep. Tom Suozzi represents New York’s 3rd Congressional District.Comments? OConnell11001@yahoo.com.

Career advice for the Cuomos To the Editor: Former gov. Andrew Cuomo has begun using part of his leftover $16 million re-election fund to pay for commercials. He now claims that he has been exonerated of charges that he sexually harassed a number of women. Andrew and his brother Chris might be better off if they listened to Kenny Rogers’s song “The gambler.” Rogers sings, “You’ve gotta know … when to fold ’em, know when to walk away …” It is wishful thinking on Andrew Cuomo’s part that he can resume his political career with a simple media blitz. Both he and Chris should look for honest work. Why not follow in their grandparents’ footsteps and open another family grocery store in Queens? (Chris, who loves working out, could open a gym upstairs.) The brothers have a long history of selling baloney. That makes them perfectly suited for this new occupation. LARRY PENNER Great Neck
