Doing a good thing for many Volunteers serve over 500 Passover meals By JEFFREY BESSEN jbessen@liherald.com
More than 50 volunteers filled over 375 alphabetized food orders and placed them in a makeshift staging area in the parking of the Stella K. Abraham High School for Girls campus in Hewlett Bay Park last Sunday. The Passover meals, for people in need across western Long Island, from Merrick to the Five Towns and even Brooklyn, Queens and Great Neck, were packed in boxes and readied for pickup as vehicles began rolling
in at around 1 p.m. The effort was sponsored by the Hewlettbased Leon Mayer Fund and its Mark Ramer Chesed Center, in association with Kosher Response. “This has been in planning for months already,” said Gabriel Boxer, of Hewlett, who heads Kosher Response, a charitable program he created at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic in 2020, “and if you’re aware of what’s going on in the market today, [it’s difficult] for us just to be able to get chicken, Continued on page 22

Peninsula Public Library soars during Covid jbessen@liherald.com
In spite of the ongoing Covid pandemic, Peninsula Public Library, one of the smallest libraries in Nassau County by square footage, but one of the busiest in terms of materials circulated, is holding up well. “We are trying and very happy with what we have accomplished,” Library Director Carolynn Matulewicz said. “We are the top circulating library in the county and the patrons are very happy with the curbside puck up and the Zoom programs. We are very happy with the numbers and they are very high. People are using the lockers and we have adjusted our operation to meet the needs. Dealing with Covid was very hard on the staff and people have stepped up. I’m very pleased.” The proposed budget for 2022-2023 is a little more than $60,000 more than the current operating budget with the upticks in contractual obligations such as staff salaries and benefits. The proposed budget is $3.172 million. The current spending plan is $3.111 million. “We are very responsible,” Board President Sarah Yastrab said when asked about PPL was doing concerning the annual fiscal plan. “It was very important in the last to year to be flat (no budget
increase), but this last go around we couldn’t with the contractual obligations. But we did stay within the 2 percent tax cap.” By the numbers, see box, PPL is very busy. The library on Central Avenue in Lawrence overhauled its public restroom through a $110,000 state grant and installed 39 lockers in conjunction with California-based Luxor One. The outside lockers, in the back of the building, allow patrons to pick up materials at their convenience. Yastrab, 51, is the only board trustee running for re-election this year. She is running for her second 5-year term since winning election in 2011 to complete a 1-year unexpired term. She said she plans to submit her petitions to run. “I’m looking to build upon the strengths we got,” Yastrab said. “We are a unifying place for the community,” adding that PPL offers programs for every age from child to seniors. “I want to see what happens after the dust settles after Covid and whatever is good for the community we will provide.” The deadline for candidate petition submissions is April 18. The library budget and trustee vote is on the ballot along with the Lawrence School District budget and Board of Education vote on May 17.

HALB students have a winning grasp of history Four groups of Hebrew Academy of Long Beach eighth-graders advanced from the Long Island History Day competition to the New York State History Day contest. Under the guidance of social studies teacher Kristen Waterman, 18 students involved with a quartet of projects excelled. Seven of the nine of groups from HALB that took part in the Long Island event placed within the top six. The students collaborated on the projects within the past five months conducting in-depth research. Because of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, the competitions are being held online. Participants uploaded their project onto the History Day website. The projects examine historical events and how they relate to a specific them. This school year’s theme is Debate and Diplomacy: Successes, Failures and Consequences. Students reviewed eras stretching from the American Industrial Revolution to the 1970s.

Hewlett’s baseball team is looking to correct what has been a bumpy start to the season, as the group dropped its initial five contests. However, coach Andrew DeBernardo is confident the Bulldogs are capable of much more. “Mental errors and not getting key hits have been the things we need to improve on,” DeBernardo said. “Carey beat us 11-0 and we outhit them that game. We get guys on first and second and we don’t score.” Hewlett is mostly young, but retained all but one player from last year’s roster when it won three games. Two-year captain junior Matt Graziose is the starting shortstop for the squad. He is also the closer, but there hasn’t had a closing situation to utilize him. Junior Jaycen Ng is a left-handed starting pitcher and first basemen. Michael Heyman is a sophomore, and he is both a pitcher and an outfielder. Sophomore Josh Sepe is the starting catcher and has done well early, and a surprising contributor has been Sophomore Zane Branch, who has become the leadoff hitter due to his improving hitting and impressive speed. It is worth noting that senior Eli Mencahe was supposed to be the starting catcher and one of the key contributors for the Bulldogs, but he unfortunately tore his ACL in the third game of the year. The Bulldogs were neck and neck with Roslyn in the first game of their series before suffering a 9-5 defeat. The second game was tied going into the fifth inning, but Roslyn pulled out a 5-4 decision. Hewlett scored the first four runs of the series finale but couldn’t hold on. Of course, moral victories will have to translate into real victories for the Bulldogs to correct this subpar start. DeBernardo is cognizant of what elements the group needs to work in order to secure some victories in coming weeks. “The defense hasn’t been good,” DeBernardo said. “We are booting the ball all over the place and it’s making our pitchers have to throw more pitches. It’s not our outfield. Our infield is not playing

JuNioR shoRtstop Matt Graziose is a two-year captain and also serves as the team’s closer out of the bullpen. as good as we should.” There is plenty of season left for the Bulldogs to resurrect the trajectory of their season, but it will not be easy. However, DeBernardo is still confident in his squad’s chances in the upcoming matchups still present on the schedule. “We’ll be in the series against Bellmore JFK, Glen Cove and Sewanhaka and then the Calhoun series will be tough,” DeBernardo said. “We have some speed
and we have some bats. Our pitching is deep and we throw strikes. We’ve had bad weather but both teams have had to deal with that. We have 13 games to make some noise and hopefully we do.” Hewlett will have had 11 days between games since its next series against Kennedy begins April 18. The Bulldogs are home for the series opener and finale on April 21 and travel to face the Cougars on the 19th.

Chabads celebrate 120th birthday of rebbe jvallone@liherald.com
They gathered to commemorate what would have been an influential rebbe’s 120th birthday. Town of Hempstead officials and rabbis from across Nassau County got together at the Chabad Center for Jewish Life in Merrick last week to honor the late Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson. He was a leader of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement, becoming its seventh rebbe in 1951. Schneerson transformed the Chabad into one of the most widespread Jewish movements, establishing a large network of institutions across the world to serve religious, social and humanitarian needs in the community. In fact, many of these Chabad centers can be found throughout Nassau. Hempstead town officials proclaimed April 12, the rebbe’s birthday this year on the Jewish calendar, as “Education and Sharing Day.” Officials were joined by several Chabad rabbis including Shimon Kramer of MerrickBellmore-Wantagh, Anchelle Perl of Mineola, Zalman Wolowik and Meir Geisinsky of the Five Towns, Yossi Leiberman of West Hempstead, Eli Goodman of Long Beach, Zevi Baumgarten of Oceanside, Mendel Gerkov of Rockville Centre, Nochem Tenenboim of Hewlett, and Shmuel Lieberman at Hofstra University. Congress has recognized Education and Sharing Day every year since 1978 to honor the late rebbe. Because the date it falls can vary on the Gregorian calendar, it usually occurs between late March and late April. “The rebbe’s legacy — for anybody that is standing beside me — is tremendous,” Town Supervisor Don Clavin said. “At a time when we’re seeing people’s faith attacked for who they are — or just for being of the Jewish faith — it’s important that we remember the rebbe’s teaching.”

RABBi ShimON KRAmER of the Chabad of MerrickBellmore-Wantagh shared what he learned from Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson on the rebbe’s birthday. The Town of Hempstead has one of the largest Jewish populations in the United States, Clavin noted, comparable to the size of Jewish communities in New York City. “His work was essential to the expansion of the Chabad dynasty throughout the world,” Clavin added. There are now more than 5,000 Chabad centers worldwide. “They are carrying on the legacy of the rebbe’s teaching and education to the next generation,” Clavin said.
Town Councilman Anthony D’Esposito, who’s district represents parts of the Five Towns where there is a particularly large Jewish population, said Chabads welcome people regardless of their religion to see the world through different glasses. “Here in the Town of Hempstead, we have Chabads. We have community organizations that open their doors each and ever day to celebrate the diversity of this great town,” he said. “It’s an honor to be here to celebrate the great work the rabbis and their staff, and (what) all of the Chabads in the Town of Hempstead do.” Kramer, whose Chabad center hosted the ceremony, recounted some of the lessons he had learned from Schneerson. In fact, Kramer said, 40 years ago, he received a Tanya — a holy book that teaches human selflessness — from the rabbi. “That’s what the rebbe was,” Kramer said. “Always selfless. He was always there for everybody else. I am honored to stand here, with my colleagues — and all of the officials of the town council — to honor the rebbe with what he stood for: education.” Perl further emphasized Schneerson’s belief in education. “The rebbe taught that education in general should not be limited to the acquisition of knowledge,” Pearl said. “Instead, the education system must pay more attention to the building of character, with emphasis on moral and ethical values.” Each Chabad in Hempstead, Clavin said, would receive a commemorative sign in honor of the rebbe and his legacy. “It really is something about education,” the town supervisor said. “That is why we are so honored to join with you, in honor of the rebbe’s 120th birthday. We want to thank you for the work that you do for the children, the adults, and for everybody in all of your communities.”

Passover, a time for new beginnings that only G-d can know it. Like the seed, however, we will never reach this true potential if we always hang on to remaining a seed. So, how do we allow ourselves to become nothing so that we can blossom into a completely new and different something? The word is humility. The lesson of Pesach is that G-d did for us what we could never have done for ourselves. When we eat the flat matzah symbolizing humility we express our willingness to “let go and let G-d” so that we can undergo radical transformation in our own lives. There is a saying, “When you’re down to nothing, G-d’s up to something.” Or also like they say, sometimes the greatest thing that can happen is to “hit bottom.” So take heart, don’t fear change, become what you were destined to be and give in to radical transformation. Over the past couple of years, we have seen many things fall apart. Much of what we came to rely upon and expect as normal has simply disappeared and it is uncertain if it will ever be replaced. Yes, this can be frightening. But we must embrace this opportunity for new beginnings. In many ways, we have been given a fresh slate. We can begin anew and completely reinvent ourselves if we wish. I invite you this Passover season to do something bold. Take on some form of Jewish practice that may have seemed unattainable to you in the past or inconsistent with your lifestyle. There’s no better time than right now for each of us to become something completely new. For more information and for all your Passover needs please go onto our website www.chabadfivetowns.com/passover. Rabbi Wolowik leads the Chabad of the Five Towns.

One of the things the Torah tells us about Pesach is that we have to celebrate it in the spring. “Guard the month of the spring and keep the Passover for your L-rd...” (Deut. 16:1.) What can we learn from the fact that Pesach is celebrated in the spring? One lesson we can learn has to do with the radical transformation that occurred to us when G-d took us out of Egypt. The redemption from Egyptian slavery was not a gradual or incremental change. It was a radical transformation from one extreme to the other. As we read in the Haggadah, we were taken from “avdus l’cheirus”(slavery to freedom) from “afeilah l’ohr gadol” (deep darkness to great light). The symbol in nature for this kind of radical change from one extreme to another is the germination of the seed. The seed is planted and decays in the ground thereby losing its entire identity. Then, in the springtime, when the pulse of nature is reawakened, the seed emerges not as a seed but as the beginnings of a tree. A tree is not an improved version of a seed. To the contrary, the seed had to completely stop being a seed. It had to become nothing. And then it could become something else completely. The metaphor of the seed represents how not only is it possible to go from one extreme to another but that it is natural, if we have the courage to allow ourselves to undergo this kind of change. There were people who were comfortable in Egypt, too. They feared the unknown. They wanted to stay behind. But imagine a seed that was so afraid of losing itself that it refused to ever become a tree. Someone once observed, “Anyone can count the seeds in an apple but only G-d can count the apples in a seed.” Our true hidden potential is so infinitely vast

I bet you’re thinking, “Wrong holiday.” What does the lulav have to do with Pesach (Passover)? The Talmud (Sukkah 11b) raises the issue of “lulav tzarich egged,” the lulav needs a handle to bind it together with the hadasim (myrtles) and aravot (willows). The word “egged” contains the root, which means to bring together or to unite. That root also has a prominent place at our Pesach Seder table during Maggid, the part of the Seder when we recount and try to recreate the story of our exodus from Egypt. Maggid has two purposes. One is “egged,” all Jews read the same text containing similar facts and details about a shared experience. T he other is “l’haggid,” to tell stories, to jump off the page and share our own personal understanding and familial experiences. We all read the story of the rabbis having a Seder in Bnei Brak. Each of us, though, knows and tells our own personal favorite Seder stories. What is your favorite Pesach memory? Where did your greatgrandfather celebrate Pesach? Remember the time we couldn’t fine the afikoman? Jews are called “the people of the book,” but one can also say that we are “the people of the story.” Judaism is about religion, law, and theology, and Judaism is also about transmitting our individual and communal narrative. Rav Kook notes the role of both stories and law in the Torah. He calls the experiences of the patriarchs and matriarchs, “Torat Avot,” and we learn about our responsibilities and law in“Torat Moshe.” Pesach, with its sippur yetzias mitzraim obligation of telling the Exodus story, is our annual festival of stories. We reconnect with our ability to tell, teach, and transmit stories. We get in touch with our inner child and our ability to get excited over how the story will still end. We remember that stories have a unique power to inform and to inspire, to fascinate and to educate. Stories help guarantee our future. A story is told of two rabbis competing for the position of Rabbi of an important
Courtesy Rabbi Weinstock
Rabbi EliE WEinstock Jewish community in Easter Europe. One was a famed scholar of Jewish Law, while the other, while also a scholar, was better known for his knowledge of Jewish history. The scholar made his claim in being the superior candidate by claiming, “I know the whole Torah. Even if others forget or don’t have the books, I can ensure Torah will be remembered.” The other rabbi also made his case for deserving the position. He said, “I am an expert in the telling of the story of the Jewish people. If we know and teach the story, Judaism will never be forgotten.” The second rabbi got the job. Stories are key to Jewish survival. Stories have tremendous value. As we gather around the Seder table, let’s share some of the greatest stories ever told. It may not be all we need to guarantee our Jewish future, but it is an essential step in the right direction for today. Weinstock is the rabbi at the Jewish Center of Atlantic Beach.
Tasting the hardship, appreciating the resolve
NASSAU HERALD — April 14, 2022
Some of my rabbinic responsibilities are more enjoyable than others, but one of my favorite times of year is right before Passover, when I have the opportunity to meet new people and new families in Hewlett to share handmade shmurah matzah with them and encourage them to celebrate Passover with this beautiful mitzvah. But this year, that distribution has been doubly meaningful. Because the thousands of handmade matzahs we’re distributing were baked in Dnipro, Ukraine. The matzah bakery in Ukraine has continued operations despite bombardments, shortages and the unimaginable ordeal the entire country is experiencing. When we eat these matzot, we will taste the selfsacrifice with which they were baked. And there’s another reason our Passover celebration will be especially unique this year. Four days before Passover, on April 12, we’re celebrating the 120th anniversary of the birth of the Rebbe — Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, of righteous memory, who was born in 1902 in Ukraine. The Rebbe’s father, Rabbi Levi Yitzchak, was the rabbi of Dnipro — then known as Yekaterinoslav — for many years, where he defended Judaism and freedom of religion with selfsacrifice, standing tall against the Soviet regime’s efforts to produce inferior, unkosher matzah for the city’s populace. His son, the Rebbe, brought that spirit of self-sacrifice to the New World when he fled the Holocaust. Self-sacrifice, the Rebbe taught us, doesn’t only mean risking life and limb; dying as a Jew. Self-sacrifice can also mean to live as a Jew — and to ensure others can do so as well. The Rebbe inspired me to reach out to every Jew, and I will do so with the self-sacrifice that is required of us here. Because for us in Hewlett, we will brave neither bullets nor bombs, neither hunger nor war to attend a Seder. Instead, Hewlett’s Jewish community will be welcomed into the warm homes of family and friends — and many of you will be joining us at the Second Night Family Seder at Chabad of Hewlett.

We’re a world away, both physically and emotionally, from the carnage in Eastern Europe. But there’s a way we can show our solidarity right here, in our comfortable and peaceful neighborhood. Ukraine’s rabbis this year have issued a plea: fill an extra chair at the Seder for us. Do it for the Ukrainian Jews in war zones or on the run who will not be able to attend a Seder. Bring more light to your own home this year. Go the extra mile. That’s our self-sacrifice. This year in Ukraine, there will be many empty chairs on Seder night. Let’s make sure there are many full ones at our Seders, filled with people who perhaps otherwise would not have had a Seder to attend. We’re committed to answering their call as well: Chabad of Hewlett is setting many more chairs at the Second Night Family Seder and we welcome you to join us! Nobody will be turned away due to lack of financial wherewithal, and we’re looking forward to sharing a beautifully catered meal, inspirational insights — and handmade Ukrainian matzah. And as we sit down to eat the matzah baked in Ukraine, we will taste the hardship and self-sacrifice, yes. But we will also taste the resolve and determination that has kept our nation going through thousands of years of exile and persecution, and will see us to the ultimate redemption, when “Nation will not lift sword against nation, and they will know no more war.” To reserve your seat at Hewlett’s 2nd night Family Seder, go to JewishHewlett.com/Seder to get your shmurah matzo call me at (516) 295-3433.

The Biblical story of the exodus is central to the identity of Jews, but throughout history, it has also served as the expression of a yearning for freedom that is universal. Our civilization acknowledges that slavery is terrible. We have an obligation to fight for a free world. But are we, ourselves, prepared to live a life of freedom? Are we capable of facing the difficulties we encounter precisely because we are free? Let us acknowledge that freedom is not easy: The absence of freedom brings with it convenience, comfort. If I am a slave, I don’t need to make big decisions. All meaningful choices are made by my masters. And it would be much easier to visit a single doctor and believe in his every diagnosis, but freedom “forces” us to listen to different opinions and choose. It would be much simpler to browse the internet if there were just one page on each subject. In practice, internet users need to visit dozens of pages, filter the material found, and use their freedom to select what they want to use. It would be so much less time-consuming If only one good movie were available. However, we exercise our liberty by reading dozens of reviews and then choosing the film to watch. The same is true of Judaism, indeed, of any tradition or political system. It would be comfortable if we could hear a single opinion from a single religious leader, or a single political leader. And yet, there are divisions in every religion and political group. Even rabbis from the same branch of Judaism have different opinions. And certainly, in any other group, there will be a variety of opinions. Not to mention that people can change their minds, or mature, and disagree with an earlier belief of their own. The issue of freedom is especially important at this time of year. Passover, the feast of liberation, is approaching. The Jewish people come into existence only after their liberation from slavery in Egypt. As long as they were Pharaoh’s slaves, they could not consider themselves a people. With their freedom came nationhood, and all the issues of choice. Although it is very difficult to live freely, Judaism believes that there is no other possibility. God created men and women to be free. What makes humans different from other animals is precisely our freedom to choose.
Rabbi Michel Schlesinger Any curtailment of man’s liberties is strictly prohibited by our Torah. Conservative Judaism believes that freedom is essential to the practice of authentic and challenging Judaism. We rabbis are not supposed to dictate the rules, but indicate all the options. Anyone who opens any page of the Talmud realizes that there is no single answer to a Jewish question. Judaism responds in different ways to the same question and each person must have the freedom to choose the answer that most convinces him. For this to happen, it is necessary to study all options in depth. Being able to choose is more complicated than receiving ready-made answers. However, we believe that freedom is the only way to practice a thinking Judaism. Jews must have a deep knowledge of their traditions, legends, laws and customs, so that they can fully exercise their freedom of choice. The one who chooses after studying our sources makes an authentically Jewish decision, even if this decision is different from that made by another Jew. The importance of choice is central to our religion, and equally so to anyone striving to live a free and meaningful life. May you experience freedom this holiday season and forever. Schlesinger is the head rabbi at the HewlettEast Rockaway Jewish Centre

Freeing ourselves to help empower others acknowledge that not everyone is free to enjoy their Passover meal (or any meal) in peace, and we’re mindful of our blessings. During a close reading of several verses from the Torah that look at the events leading up to actually leaving Egypt, we discussed not o n ly t h e E xo d u s f ro m Egypt, but the Exodus in Egypt. Before the Israelites could become free physically, they had to begin the process of changing their mind-set and free themselves, spiritually and emotionally. Taking Israel out of Egypt was the easy part; taking Egypt out of the Israelites was another lkodSi story! In order to free ourselves from the bonds that hold us back, before we can emerge from the narrow place into the open wilderness, we need to believe in ourselves and our abilities. One who is enslaved has no control over their life or time; when they eat, work and sleep, they may not even what day it is. It’s no accident that the instructions for preparing to leave Egypt begin with

Happy Passover
God saying, “This month shall mark for you the beginning of the months; it shall be the first of the months of the year for you.” (Ex. 12:2). A free people get a calendar and with it, power to mark time for themselves. On Passover we celebrate a Festival of Freedom, but at the same time, we’re mindful that there are people in the world who are still enslaved by other individuals, governments, and circumstances. We teach our children that no one is free unless everyone is free, and we are required as Jews and as humans to work towards a world where all are free. Before we can change the world, we need to change ourselves; to clean out the thoughts and actions that hold us back along with the chametz (leavened foods). The Seder requires each of us to act as though we, personally, had been enslaved in and been freed from Egypt. As we prepare for our Seders and the following days of Passover, may we be blessed to see what has enslaved us, to break free from those bonds, and to work towards the freedom and empowerment of all.

This week, a few colleagues and I gathered to spend some time learning with Professor Job Jindo, one of my teachers from the Academy for Jewish Religion. We’re in our third year of dealing with Covid, and for the Malverne Jewish Center, this will be the third year that our community Seder will be on Zoom. All around me I see signs that we’re be ginning to emerge from Mitzrayim, the Hebrew word for Egypt, which literally means, “the narrow places.” Our lives were narrowed; we spent more time confined to our homes; working, learning and worshipping remotely, watching Broadway shows uSan on TV and for many, learning new skills, including baking sourdough bread. Dr. Jindo pointed out that the Passover Seder that took place in Egypt and the Passover Seders we hold now, are very different. Most of us are relaxed, sitting around a table, in contrast to the Israelites who were commanded to eat their meal; hurriedly, “your loins girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand.” (Ex. 12:11).

Choice awards celebrate those who ‘power’ community By WILL SHEELINE wsheeline@liherald.com
After months of waiting, winner after winner stepped up to receive their firstever Herald Long Island Choice award during a gala event with Oscars-like proportions, but without any of the unnecessary drama. The first-ever event — hosted by RichnerLive, presented by PSEG Long Island, and sponsored by TenantBase — took place April 5 at Heritage Club in Bethpage. Voting had been underway since last July where readers and customers shared who they believed were Long Island’s best businesses in more than 260 categories covering everything from breweries to motorcycle dealers to chiropractor. More than 100,000 votes were cast over five months, and both the top three finalists and the eventual winners were recognized at last week’s awards event. Instead of leaving these decisions by a faceless group of judges, these awards are determined by the very people who make these businesses thrive — the customers. That, at least, is according to Amy Amato, corporate relations and events executive director at RichnerLive. Herald Long Island Choice Awards is a way to show businesses how much their work is appreciated. “We decided to do it because we understand the challenges that small businesses

Plus, the cheese is great.” Each table featured an ice sculpture centerpiece celebrating the event, while on the main stage, an acrobat contorted herself in fantastical ways. Stuart Richner, chief executive of Richner Communications Inc., commented on how important local businesses contribution is to Long Island, and how happy he was to get the chance to celebrate them. “It is the people in this room that are the economic engines of our communi-

In a marathon performance, Park read off the winners of the 266 categories in rapid fire. In the ensuing hour, business after business was named winner in a whirlwind of emotional highs. Some were so excited, they jumped up on chairs and tables in celebration. Others chose to celebrate with screams and applause.

Peggy Keane, PSEG’s interim president and chief operating officer, said she was pleased to partner with Herald Community Newspapers to celebrate businesses across Long Island. “This event recognizes all types of businesses that are dedicated to their communities,” she added, in a statement. Those were sentiments also shared by Bennett Washabaugh, chief executive and co-founder of TenantBase. “It was fantastic to see so many small businesses getting out, and the people that power our community,” he said. “It’s just amazing.”

worked with St. Michael’s Ukrainian Church, in Uniondale, to ship the supplies to Ukraine. “Ukraine is home to one of the world’s largest Jewish communities,” the JCC Association said in a statement, “with some 200,000 Jews concentrated in the country’s four largest cities spread across dozens of smaller cities and towns in every corner of the country.” Rosenfeld said that the Gural JCC was working on a program as part of the umbrella organization, in partnership with JServe and the Jewish Joint Distribution Committee in Israel to help the Ukrainian refugees who are fleeing the country and are settling in Hungary, Moldova, Poland and Romania. Jewish History Day was recognized during the April 3 RangersFlyers hockey game at Madison Square Garden. Donations and a portion of the ticket sales revenue were added to a crisis fund for Ukraine, Rosenfeld said. With more than 100,000 Ukrainian refugees headed to the United States, Rosenfeld said the JCC would be “helping in any ways we can.”

continued from front page because there’s a chicken shortage in the supply chain.” Roughly 125 fully cooked meals, Boxer said, were to be distributed on Thursday to families who have relatives in the hospital, have lost loved ones or are in similar circumstances. Boxer, the Republican candidate for State Senate in the 10th District, where he is challenging incumbent Democratic Sen. James Sanders Jr., also works with the Leon Mayer Fund and helps to run the Chesed Center. The fund, overseen by Rabbi Simcha Lefkowitz, was founded 37 year ago after Mayer’s death by one of his sons, Shlomo, and Lefkowitz. The fund aids families by subsidizing meals, offering financial assistance and helping with school placement and family issues. From inside the SKA gym, where volunteers were working, to the pallets of food where the orders were put together, the site was a beehive of activity last Friday and again two days later. The orders, depending on families’ requests, included chicken, meat or fish, potatoes, gefilte fish, matzo, apples, oranges, and apple and grape juice. “It’s tremendous,” Lawrence resident Barry “Buzz” Mayer said of all the activity — boxes being packed and

Another of Leon Mayer’s children, Barry, described the fund as a “local organization that is supported through all our community.”
“Our goal is to help anybody who needs help,” Barry said as he stood with his son, Leon, who was named after his grandfather. “All of our relatives come, and everyone comes to just

Q. We just bought a house, and want to make a lot of small changes, like taking down the wall between the little kitchen and the dining area to put in an island, and making two bedrooms on the second floor. The house is one story but has room in the attic to make the bedrooms. Do we need to have drawings made to get a contractor? Some we spoke to said no. Do we need a permit if it’s all minor work? Again, some contractors told us we don’t need one, and one said he wouldn’t do the work without one. I’m a developer in the city, but Long Island is so different. In the city, the architect self-certifies the drawings, and a couple of days after the contractor files the job, we have a permit. I’m being told that it can take weeks for our new house to pull a permit, and there is no self-certifying. Is that true?

A. There are regulations for the bedroom ceiling height and insulation you must follow, or you will someday be like the several retirees I have dealt with who discovered the expensive truth: Their second-floor bedrooms fail the code requirements of an average ceiling height of 7 feet. New York state building code, which every community, includonte eeper ing New York City, follows (New York City has added restrictions), requires that the minimum height is 5 feet, and the average height is 7 feet. If you take the space width, only from the 5-foot height location and the height at the center, you can calculate average height. I present a cross-section diagram to demonstrate compliance. Many older sellers trying to move to lower-taxed homes discover that they need to do up to $35,000 in alterations to raise roofs and add legal windows for light, ventilation and fire escape requirements as well. A few gave up, passing the problem and a price reduction on to their buyer, causing frustration. You absolutely need permits for the “small” changes, which will end up not being so small when you realize that the wrong beams may be installed by an unqualified person who can tell you they do the same thing “all the time,” without correctly calculated and drawn plans. Most beams they install work for carrying the floor load upstairs, but don’t take into consideration the other factors, such as snow, wind and uplift loads transferred from the roof a story above. All too often I see sagging, barely detectable, wrong-sized beams when I’m meeting with potential clients. Unless there is work to be done in the area of that beam or it looks extremely undersized, I generally remain silent, because most people don’t want to hear about it, never noticed it and really do believe that any old beam will do the job, and the person with power tools knew what they were doing. Only when ceiling cracking appears do they notice. Good luck!

R
ussia’s brutal attack on Ukraine is being felt around the world — and now, even above it. Russia’s top space official, Dmitry Rogozin, has tweeted that the sanctions imposed on his country by the U.S and Europe are “unacceptable.” He said that cooperation with the U.S. and it allies on the International Space Station may no longer be possible. Rogozin added that the sanctions are intended “to kill the Russian economy, plunge JAmES our people into and bring BERNStEIN despair our country to its knees.” Normal relations with the U.S. and Europe, he said, would only be possible with the lifting of the “illegal” sanctions — something that is highly unlikely to happen in the near future. Rogozin, space experts have said, has a habit of popping off. But Andrew Parton, president of the Cradle of Aviation Museum in Garden City, said that the notion of Americans, Europeans and Russians working together in space — which they were doing only a few weeks ago — now “seems awkward.”
I
“We’re almost at war with them,” Parton said. The Russians were pioneer partners, along with the U.S., the Europeans Space Agency, Canada and Japan, in building the ISS, the largest man-made structure ever constructed and put into space. It had to be assembled in parts, which took place between 1998 and 2000. The first section of the structure was launched in November 1998, aboard a Russian Proton rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodome. The ISS has been circling the Earth for so long now — it became fully operational in May 2009 with a six-member crew that required two Russian Soyuz “lifeboats” to be docked there at all times — that many Earthlings have pretty much forgotten about it, or don’t think of it much. But it remains a phenomenal vehicle, traveling an eye-popping 17,500 mph at an altitude of some 248 miles above Earth. Many have argued that the many billions of dollars spent on the ISS could have been better used on Earth. Others say that man was born to explore, and who knows what we’ll find out there one day? And the ISS has proved valuable. To name a few of its contributions:
t
■ The ability to view Earth from different perspectives has given scientists a better way to find new sources of water and places to grow food. ■ Protein crystal growth experiments done aboard the station have given medical science better understanding of diseases such as cancer and muscular dystrophy.
he biggest loss is that yet another tie between major world powers will have been severed.
■ A s t r o n a u t s h ave learned to work in a microg r av i t y e nv i r o n m e n t . Human bodies chang e under such circumstances, and we are now better able to understand how to cope with the challenges we will face as we further explore the cosmos.
■ And students the world over have been given a view of life in space and the possibilities of a world outside our own. But what if Russia quits? The ISS could survive. Just last week, SpaceX, a private company, launched a NASA astronaut and three paying customers to the ISS. Since NASA’s space shuttle program ended in 2011, the agency has relied on Russian Soyuz spacecraft to take our astronauts to the station. But with commercial space companies revving up, we may be able to elimi-
nate our dependence on the Russians to get us up there. Russians help guide the ISS, and use their country’s space vehicles to boost the station to its target orbit when it tends to drift lower. These tasks can be taken over, but it will take effort by the rest of the ISS team, and more funding. The bigger loss, of course, is that yet another tie between major world powers will have been severed. Russian and U.S. diplomats around the world have already been called home. To be sure, Russia must be punished, and punished severely, for its actions in Ukraine. But astronauts and cosmonauts are scientists, and have held themselves above the fray of politics and fraught relationships between their countries. They were able to do so on the most recent return to Earth, in March. Astronaut Mark Vande Hei worried that he might be left behind because of U.S-Russia tensions, after spending 355 days in space. But the Russians ferried him home safely. Joe Montalbano, NASA’s program manager for the ISS, said that those aboard the station last month were “aware of what’s going on, but they still worked as a team.” The question is, how long can we remain teammates?

Family stories help the healing
f you don’t have a sister, I urge you to get one, preferably a younger one, so you can boss her around. But in a pinch, any age will do, and life is all about pinches. My husband recently had surgery to replace a pacemaker, an easy, relatively pain-free event, unless it’s your pacemaker, and your body being altered. My guy is stoic, but he came out of surgery with a corneal abrasion, which was inexplicable on many levels, since the procedure was for his heart. The pain RANDI was extreme and, KREISS although I’m good in a crisis, I found his distress and my helplessness terribly unsettling. Lots of people offered to help in any way they could. The calls and notes and get-well gifts all lifted us up. But only my sister called and said she was on her way. She had booked her flight, she was coming for five days, and that was that. She isn’t the take-over type; that’s my job as the older sister. Once she got here, I still cooked for the three of us and
walked the dog and fetched the meds for the patient. Really, she didn’t do much, unless you count saving my sanity. We discussed important world events, like our hair, and exchanged meaningful gifts: I gave her my Dry Bar brush and she gave me her hot rollers. Like most sibs our age, we’re the only people on Earth who shared childhood with the same parents. Ours died in old age, at 95 and 97, so until the last few years, we took care of them together. This shared experience doesn’t imply shared memories, because we have wildly different accounts of our childhood in Cedarhurst with Mom and Dad. What we do when we’re together is mostly nothing, aside from talking or sharing companionable silence while we read or do stuff on our devices. She paints. I write. We agree on most things in the world except her dog, Moe, a.k.a. Cujo, who is the love of her life, and the only Chihuahua who could take down a cheetah. We tell stories when we sit around, share the news of our kids and grandkids, and realize that memory is unreliable but that it doesn’t matter. The stories
I
we tell weave the cloth that holds us together. I remember the Thanksgiving her 3-year-old daughter decided she hated the tiny bows on her pink velvet pants and jacket. My brother-in-law, who died many years ago, called a timeout, got a scissors and snipped off every one of the dozens of tiny bows. My sister doesn’t remember this at all. I thought it was a remarkable demonstration of parental forbearance. She also doesn’t remember that our mother assigned me to walk her to her kindergarten when I was in third grade. Every single awful day, my sister would throw herself on the ground, grab my feet and beg me not to leave her there. It didn’t take more than seven or eight years of therapy to deal with that. One story we both remember was our mother’s “talk” with us about sex. She told us an elaborate story about what the male chicken does with the female chicken. When I offered intelligent feedback, starting with, “So you mean when you wanted to make a baby, Dad and you…?” “No!” she screamed. “That’s just with
love kale, but my sister says she would rather chew on her lawn.
chickens.” My sister and I tend to like the same things: We are political allies, and support folks who are trying to keep our democracy from running aground. Of course, there are exceptions to our harmony. I love kale, and she says she would rather chew on her lawn. I suspect she eats pot pie, which to me is dead chicken in a watery grave. She asked me if I remembered the time I was being bullied in sixth grade. I walked her to school and told her I would kiss her goodbye before we got to school so the other kids wouldn’t see. She remembered that I didn’t skip the kiss. I don’t remember that, but I do remember that when I was making out with my boyfriend (now my husband), in the family den back in high school, she would come clomping down the stairs in her rollers and slippers and would accept a quarter to clomp back up. She says she wouldn’t have scrammed for less than 50 cents. So, you see, while my husband healed, my sister and I passed the time with stories. She didn’t do much, unless you count just showing up. Which was everything. Copyright 2022 Randi Kreiss. Randi can be reached at randik3@aol.com.

Congress must preserve quality local journalism
a
free and diverse press is the backbone of a healthy and vibrant democracy. Yet social media and search engine giants like Facebook and Google are taking content from local newspapers — like this one — with little, if any, benefit to those newspapers. But it is readers who are truly harmed by Big Tech’s content-filtering and datacollection motives, which ultimately reduce the output of quality journalism. All of it is simply unfair — to readers, and especially to the newspapers who serve them. Congress must take action to fix this by approving an equitable revenue model similar to what the music industry fought hard for — one that pays royalties to content owners, which ensures that more of that content can be produced in the future. Let’s not forget the important tenets of local newspapers: ■ Quality journalism is key to sustaining civic society, and we must ensure that those who create journalistic content are compensated for their work. ■ With freedom of the press enshrined in the Constitution, it is imperative to take reasonable and meaningful steps to protect this important institution. ■ Local journalism strengthens communal ties, and provides communities with critical information. ■ The public rightfully trusts its local newspapers. One recent survey showed that nearly 75 percent of Americans have confidence in their local newspaper, compared with just over half for national net-
work and cable news. Just 17 percent trusted social media. A bipartisan bill known as the Journalism Competition & Preservation Act is making its way through Congress. It’s sponsored by Senators Amy Klobuchar, a Democrat from Minnesota, and John Kennedy, a Republican from Louisiana, as well as two congressmen from both sides of the aisle, David Cicilline of Rhode Island and Ken Buck of Colorado. The bill would enable news publishers to collectively negotiate with Big Tech, driving billions of dollars of subscription and ad dollars back to the publishers who produce good journalism in the first place. It would include an enforcement mechanism to ensure that negotiations result in payments, that such payments be evenly distributed to small local papers, and that payments reflect investments in reporters and newsrooms. It would allow market forces — not just two companies or even the government — to determine how, and for what price, news content is offered. American news publications reach more than 135 million people each week. Yet the revenue of these publications has dropped by more than 50 percent in recent years, fueled by mass — and often involuntary — distribution over dominant digital platforms like Facebook and Google. Social media might claim that the redistribution of content actually helps newspapers expand their audiences. But in reality, newspapers provide must-have content for these tech platforms that help them capture visitors. Publishers deserve fair compensation for the value of that content, and it’s just not happening from this so-called audience expansion.

letters Sharing age and perspective To the Editor: Randi Kreiss’s column “Where am I at 75? Reflections from the Edge” resonated with me. I, too, am 75 and can’t believe that number. I stopped working in December 2013, and in January 2014 I launched into the next phase of my life — I went back to school. I enrolled at Nassau Community College for what was supposed to be no more than a four-year stint, planning to take one course per semester. I had the time, and wanted to enjoy the classes, unlike my undergrad and graduate days. Due to a few hiccups along the way — my husband’s back operations, my lymphoma, selling our house and moving during the pandemic — four years turned into 8½. I kept going back, learning computer programs that really challenged me, especially the courses I survived last year in which I created my own portfolio website
Individual news publishers cannot challenge the basic terms offered by Big Tech because these platforms are too big, and smaller newspapers can’t even get a seat at the table. Because of that, Big Tech can grab as much as 70 percent of every ad dollar from news publishers while hiring zero reporters. Newspapers bear all the expense, while social media giants get all the benefit. Facebook and Google exert their dominance over the digital marketplace by setting the rules for news publishers and determining how their work is displayed, prioritized and monetized. More than 65 percent of users don’t even click the links offered by Google that would take them to the outlets that are spending the money to create the content they’re reading. One study showed that 57 percent of New York residents get their news from Facebook. Nearly half use Google as their primary source of news. If Washington doesn’t intervene soon, we will continue to lose hundreds of newspapers — like this one — across the country, and right here in your hometowns. But Congress needs to know it has your support in order to act. Reach out to U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer at (212) 486-4430, or U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand at (212) 688-6262. Call U.S. Rep. Kathleen Rice at (516) 739-3008, U.S. Rep. Tom Suozzi at (631) 923-4100, or U.S. Rep. Andrew Garbarino at (516) 541-6602. Our democracy depends on local media like the newspaper you hold in your hands. The idea is so important that it’s part of the First Amendment, enshrined in the Bill of Rights. But local media also depends on you.

opinions
ecently I joined the Nassau County Legislature’s majority caucus, numerous veterans groups and County Executive Bruce Blakeman to announce the creation of a program using American Rescue and Recovery Act funds to provide grants of up to $10,000 to every eligible veterans hall in the county. At the height of the pandemic, many Veterans of Foreign Wars posts and American Legions were facing major difficulties paying rent, property taxes and mainteBiLL nance on their venues. Veterans GayLoR halls were forced by lockdowns to cancel catered events and other functions, and that took away necessary income these halls need to survive. At the time, veterans groups weren’t eligible for ARPA funds under guidance issued by the federal government. After advocating for making those organizations eligible for that federal assistance, we received notification earli-
er this year from the U.S. Treasury Department that ARPA guidelines were being expanded to encompass 501(c)(19) entities, which includes veterans facilities. The new rule took effect on April 1. Veterans and fraternal halls are part of the very fabric of our community, and there are approximately 100 of them in Nassau County. As a retired U.S. Army lieutenant colonel who will always be a strong supporter of the brave men and women who have admirably served this county, I know firsthand the important role these facilities serve. With all that veterans have done and are continuing to do for our nation and communities, there never should have been a question of eligibility. I am pleased to know that our efforts proved successful, and that this program will help these veterans groups as part of their ongoing recovery from the pandemic. I also wanted to mention a couple of other matters of significance. First, residents are reminded that the property tax grievance filing deadline that was extended by the County Legislature to give peo-
V
eterans of Foreign Wars posts and American Legions are still reeling from the pandemic.
LetteRs — I learned to code! It’s been an amazing and rewarding journey, which I completed despite the comments from friends and family: “What do you need this for?” “Are you going to get a job?” (No.) “Why are you making yourself crazy?” I learned that I could access parts of my brain that I didn’t know existed. I learned that I really am an artist — what a relief to finally own this part of myself. I did have people on my side — a very supportive husband and the professors who took me seriously at Nassau. Our two kids are doing well, and our grandkids are getting poised to launch. And yes, we, too, are “drifting to the wings of the family stage.” Despite that, or because of it, I’ve decided to “walk” at NCC’s graduation in May. My two grandsons said they would come. Thanks, Randi, for the years of introspective columns, many of which resonated with this 75-year-old. BARBARA KAPLAN Rockville Centre
We're in a good place To the Editor: Randi Kreiss’s column spoke to me so completely. At 73 years old, I have become very content with who I am. I’m more reflective and understanding. Simple pleasures satisfy me. And most important, I’m in the present. Thanks, Randi, for articulating what
ple more time to challenge their assessments will expire on May 2. I’ve posted a video on my website on how to file a grievance. You can visit www.nassaucountyny.gov/ld6 and watch it by clicking the link to the video. Remember, you don’t need to pay a law firm or agency to file a tax grievance. To get information on your specific property, go to https://lrv.nassaucountyny. gov. Forms and applications can also be found at www. nassaucountyny.gov/agencies/ARC/forms.html. Second, earlier this month, the Legislature’s majority caucus and the Town of Oyster Bay initiated a collection drive to assist the people of Ukraine, and opened drop-off locations at various county and town facilities. Recently I helped load the last boxes filled with donations from generous residents to be shipped overseas. Overall, more than 45,000 pounds of much-needed supplies, including medical items and personal hygiene products, were sent to the Port of New York and New Jersey, where they will be shipped to Poland and ultimately distributed to
Ukrainian refugees. Finally, the State Legislature is considering legislation that would give the state control of the Nassau University Medical Center, and ultimately lead to partial or complete closure of the facility. NUMC is the only county-owned hospital in Nassau County, and has the only state-of-the-art burn center for miles around, as well as one of the best trauma centers on Long Island. The hospital serves not just residents of the East Meadow area, but also many from across the county who are under-insured, as well as students from the local colleges and many members of nearby minority communities. This effort is nothing more than a political move by Albany that would hurt Nassau County. NUMC should be run by county residents, for county residents. It should not be a pawn in a political tug of war, and I will continue to fight to ensure that the hospital remains under the county’s control, and not bureaucrats in Albany. Bill Gaylor is a Nassau County legislator representing the 6th District, which comprises Malverne, Lynbrook, North Lynbrook, Valley Stream, North Valley Stream and portions of Franklin Square, Hewlett, Rockville Centre and Woodmere.

They'll all wear No. 42 To the Editor: Friday marks the 75th anniversary of Jackie Robinson playing his first major league baseball game for the Brooklyn Dodgers. It was a milestone for integrating the sport. It was a time when working- and middle-class men and woman of all ages, classes, races and religions commingled, rooting for Robinson and his teammates regardless of ethnic origin. Brooklynites could ride the bus, trolley or subway to Ebbets Field to see their beloved Dodgers. Everyone could afford a bleacher or general admission seat. Hot dogs, beer and souvenirs were reasonably priced. Just as Jackie Robinson fought racism in the 1950s, the Detroit Tigers’ Hank Greenberg had to do the same with antisemitism in his time. Robinson and Greenberg both document the long-lasting relationship between African-Americans and Jewish sports fans standing together for decades in support of one another. LARRY PENNER Great Neck
