Hewlett’s Riley Weiss strikes gold in Israel

By ToNY BElliSSiMo tbellissimo@liherald.com

iley Weiss continues to add to her basketball achievements. Coming off her second straight Nassau County girls’ basketball scoring title, Weiss, who next month will begin her senior year at Hewlett High School, competed in the 21st Maccabiah Games July 12-26 in Israel, and helped the United States Under-18 girls’ squad capture gold. Weiss scored a team-high 25 points to lead USA to a 78-67 victory over Israel in the U18 girls’ gold medal game July 24. One week earlier, in pool play, Weiss scored 32 points in a thrilling come-from-behind 79-75 overtime win over Israel. USA trailed that game by 9 points after three quarters. “It was a lot of fun and a great experience,” said Weiss, who flew from Newark, New Jersey,

to Tel Aviv on July 2 and returned on July 26. “My teammates were great, and I met a lot of different athletes from other countries. It all exceeded my expectations.” The American squad went 6-0, also defeating Australia twice, and Canada and Germany once each. None of those teams were competitive, but both battles against Israel were intense, Weiss said. Her team was coached by Ellen Mager, a 1982 Oyster Bay High School graduate who most recently coached basketball at Briarcliff High School in Westchester County. “Israel played zone against us in the gold medal game, and Riley’s outside shooting was critical,” Mager said. “They kept forcing her further and further from the basket, but she kept hitting shot after shot. “She makes the game look effortless — it’s really amazing,” Mager added. “I was so Continued on page 8

Cedarhurst Summer Sidewalk Sale set to sizzle By JEFFREY BESSEN jbessen@liherald.com

The traditional dog days of August will feel anything but lazy and languorous next week in Cedarhurst, when the village and its Business Improvement District once again join forces for the annual Summer Sidewalk Sale, during which retail outlets and restaurants will offer patrons tremendous bargains. Along Central Avenue and up and down the business district’s many side streets, people from the Five Towns, its surrounding communities and New Jersey and Connecticut as well are expected to flock to the village for the four-day event on Aug. 10,

through Aug. 12 and Aug. 14. Saturday, Aug. 13 is Shabbos. Known as the fashion center of Long Island’s South Shore for over 100 years, Central Avenue, with its upscale shops and boutiques, has drawn comparisons to Beverly Hills’ Rodeo Drive. C e d a r h u r s t ’s m a i n s t re e t remains a showcase for unique businesses. “It’s really what makes our village unique and different,” said Ari Brown, who is both a state assemblyman and Cedarhurst’s deputy mayor, and also serves as the village board’s liaison with the BID. “We spend a lot of time thinking about this,” he added of the Sidewalk Sale. “We have new and younger BID members who are getting the

word out on social media.” The BID, an organization of business owners and landlords founded in 1993, works with the village to promote and support its businesses. It collects an

assessment of the village tax on commercial property, and, in conjunction with the village, uses the money for improvements and promotions in the business community. The maximum assessment allowed by law is 20 percent. The organization was formed after two previous groups — the Cedarhurst Commercial Property Owners Association and the Cedarhurst Business Association — were not as successful at

attracting businesses to the village and creating strong relationships among landlords and business owners. The vacancy rate of storefronts in 1998 was 12 percent. The BID and village worked tirelessly to push the rate down to 6.5 percent a decade later. In 2022, the vacancy rate is 4.25 percent, even after all the turmoil created by the Covid-19 pandemic. There are more than 280 Continued on page 12

Blanketing the animals with kindness at Ogden By JeFFRey BeSSeN jbessen@liherald.com

There were 140 bandanas, 90 treat jars, 55 T-shirts, 50 blankets, 35 beds and 15 pillows made by the children who took part in the Hewlett-Woodmere School District Summer Play School day camp class led by Dorothy LoGuidice. The items were not going to a store nor are they being sold as a camp or school fundraiser, or are for people. Roughly 50 campers made the items to be donated to animal shelters across Nassau County, including Bobbi and the Strays in the Freeport, the North Shore Animal League in Port Washington, Ruff House Rescue in Island Park and the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter in Wantagh. Ogden Elementary School is the camp’s headquarters and on a day that illustrated summer with its sun and heat, the children were celebrated for their work with a visit from Penny the dog and Gelsy Freese from the town’s Animal Shelter, along with Councilman Anthony D’Esposito and Town Clerk Kate Murray on July 28. “This was a great learning experience for them and they like the giving aspect,” Dorothy LoGuidice said about her youthful creators. LoGuidice, a teacher’s aide in the school district for 18 years and an instructor at the camp for the past decade, said she submitted a proposal for this new camp class to Ogden Principal Dina Anzalone and the school’s Assistant Principal Elizabeth Murray, who oversee the camp. “They made this happen,” LoGuidice said, adding the children were “only too happy” to help as many of them have dogs and cats at home. Campers Ashley Apicella and Amy Shteinberg, both 9, translated their love for their pets to their involvement in the project. “I made a blanket, so the dogs could be warm who don’t have a family or anybody there to comfort them,” said Apicella, who has two dogs at home —

SuMMeR PLAy SchooL campers at Ogden Elementary made an assortment of items for dogs and cats that were donated to animal shelters across Nassau County. Buddy, 11, and Maggie — whose age is unknown. “I put all my love into it for my dogs because I love them,” Apicella added, noting that she also made melty beads in the shape of a dolphin for her dog’s collar. With a three-year-old cat at home named “Malysh” at home — the Russian word for little — Shteinberg felt the tug of compassion. “I helped do the dog beds and I enjoy doing it because I love animals and I love the helping them,” she said. I enjoyed it, it was fun and it made me feel happy because I love helping animals.” Freese, who does pet therapy and humane education at the town’s animal shelter, gave the campers a brief les-

son on safety tips when encountering an unfamiliar dog, such as asking the person “Is your dog friendly,” before trying to pet the canine. Holding Penny, Freese spoke about helping the animals find a “forever home.” D’Esposito and Murray praised the children for their efforts. “I think it’s important, it’s good to show that animals are important and dogs are very important,” Shteinberg said about the event. “You should treat them nicely and it’s good that we are giving dog beds to the animal shelter.”

Camping at the 5Towns Community Center

Walking briskly through the Five Towns Community building, camp director Sasha Young led a Herald reporter to and fro the individual rooms and then outside where more than 100 campers were taking part in activities from rehearsing for the Aug. 4 camp talent show to playing the children’s game redlight-greenlight. The six-week camp began on July 5 and ends Aug. 12. From the traditional arts and crafts, enrichment activities, gardening, outdoor and water play, along with much more the camp offered an oasis of things to during the summer that educated and entertained the kids. “This is our summer of smiles,” said Young, who also runs Gammy’s Pantry, a free distribution of food, clothing and other items, along with overseeing the Community Center’s food distribution partnership with Long Island harvest inside the building on Lawrence Avenue in Lawrence. Nerthi Sanchez runs the middle school and high school portion of the camp. In two of the rooms groups of children led by their teenage counselors rehearsed their songs using video to learn the words giving the summer space the feel of a youth center karaoke bar. All the songs focus on coming together and self-esteem, Young said. Outside a group of children were using the basketball court as a multi-purpose space playing redlight-greenlight, bounc-

DR. ADhI ShARmA, president of Mount Sinai South Nassau, joined town and other hospital officials to explain how the antiviral drug Paxlovid helps fight a coronavirus infection.

Vaxmobile becomes the new ‘Paxmobile’ New ‘test and treat’ option to prescribe antiviral drug By JAKE PELLEGRINO jpellegrino@liherald.com

he next phase of the Town of Hempstead Vaxmobile is here as it transitions into the Paxmobile. Named after the antiviral therapy Paxlovid used to treat coronavirus infections, the new Paxmobile was unveiled last week at the Oceanside Library by both town officials, and doctors from Mount Sinai South Nassau. Mount Sinai’s mobile vaccination unit was born in January 2021 with nearly $700,000 from the 2020 Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act — more commonly known as the CARES Act. The Vaxmobile started making its rounds the same time some of the first vaccines designed to protect people inside the Town of Hempstead from the Covid-19 pandemic started to become available, making regular at businesses, organizations and neighborhoods. More formerly known as Mount Sinai’s Covid-19 Vaccination Mobile Unit, the truck would travel regularly to community centers, public libraries, parks and other public venues on a rotating schedule to administer vaccines and test people for the virus in some of the town’s hardest-hit communities. Now, in addition to providing vaccines and tests, the vehicle will also provide Paxlovid, an oral antiviral that doctors say is most effective when administered

“Covid will unfortunately be like the flu and be something that we have to deal with on a regular basis, but we won’t see the number of deaths that we were seeing,” Sharma said. “We’re still in the pandemic right now, but it feels different. Vaccines have made hospitalizations drop, and now this is the next step.” There have been just under 70,000 deaths related to Covid-19 in New York since the start of the pandemic, according to published reports, with nearly 4,000 reported in Nassau County. Nationwide, more than 1 million people have died from Covid-related complications, although those numbers have significantly slowed since the initial rollout of vaccines in early 2021. Where to find the Paxmobile and when can be found online through both the Town of Hempstead and Mount Sinai. Visit HempsteadNY.gov or SouthNassau.org, as well as their social media channels on Twitter and Facebook. Tony Iovino, Oceanside Library’s assistant director, said the library has been critical in spreading the message about the Vaxmobile. That’s what led town officials to make its Paxmobile announcement there. “We were one of the first ones to reach out and say we want to have the truck here, and we publicized it,” Iovino said. “Whenever the truck is here, we share it on all our media channels and make sure our patrons are informed.”

STEPPING OUT

S U M M E R T I M E By Karen Bloom kbloom@liherald.com hether firing up the grill for a pool party, barbecue or even just a weeknight meal, one thing’s for sure: summertime means grilling season. Grilling takes many forms and flavors from casual favorites like burgers and hot dogs, to flamekissed veggies, and the artistry of a steak done to perfection. However, the possibilities don’t end there. By mixing and matching traditional grilled classics with options that have a variety of textures and flavors, you can shake up your at-home menu, and add new favorites to your routine this season. It’s easy to go from casual to elegant in a snap. The tried-and-true always has a place, but shake things up a bit — add some finesse to your menu with other ideas, by re-imagining favorites off the grill.

powder, and whisk until uniform. Cover and refrigerate. To make marinade, in small bowl, combine vinegar with remaining 2 tablespoons mustard. Stir until uniform. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Place chicken and marinade in large sealable plastic bag. Remove as much air as possible and seal. Gently knead marinade into chicken through bag. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Meanwhile, if using wooden skewers, soak 4 in water for 20 minutes to prevent burning. Alternately thread marinated chicken and onion chunks onto 4 skewers. Bring grill to medium-high heat. Brush both sides of kebabs with sauce. Grill kebabs for 5 minutes with grill cover down. Flip kebabs and grill for 6 to 8 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Enjoy.

Peel pineapple; cut into wedges. In re-sealable plastic bag, combine brown sugar, lime juice and honey. Add pineapple wedges, seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate 1 hour. To make dip: In small bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Beat in yogurt, honey, brown sugar, lime juice and lime zest. Cover and refrigerate. Heat grill to medium heat. Remove pineapple wedges from plastic bag; discard marinade. Grill pineapple wedges, covered, 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Serve with dip.

Grilling adds an extra special flavor to corn on the cob. Try it with a lemon chive butter topping.

Kabobs add sizzle to the season. With their easy preparation and quick cooking time, kabobs are a simple way to enjoy many of your favorite fresh flavors.

Spicy Mustard Chicken Kebabs • 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard • 2 tablespoons olive oil • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar • 1 pound raw boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes • 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and black pepper • 1 medium red onion, cut into 1-inch chunks To make sauce, place 3 tablespoons mustard in medium bowl.

• 4 ears fresh sweet corn, in husks • 2 tablespoons butter, melted • 1 tablespoon chopped chives • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice Pull back husks from each ear of corn, leaving husks attached to base. Remove corn silk. Fold husks back around corn; tie at end of each ear with string or strip of outside corn leaves. Soak in cold water 30 minutes. Drain. Place corn on grill, uncovered, 20 to 30 minutes or until tender, turning often. Meanwhile combine butter, chives and lemon juice. Serve corn with lemon-chive butter.

The always-delightful Planting Fields Arboretum is an ideal setting in which to enjoy a summer concert.

Buying a gallon of gas on Long Island may be a dollar more expensive now than it was a year ago, but prices continue to fall from their peak above $5 at the beginning of June. The average cost for a gallon of regular gas on the island last week was $4.31, according to AAA. That was down nearly 60 cents from a month ago, but a long way off of 2021’s cost of just $3.20. Diesel fuel is down a dollar from its high of $6.65 on May 20, averaging at $5.61 last week. A gallon of diesel was above $6.25 just a month ago. Overall, a gallon of regular gas in New York is averaging $4.56, compared to $5.03 at the end of June. Diesel is at $5.78. But higher demand could slow how much prices drop in the coming weeks, AAA said, as demand for gasoline jumped nearly 9 percent as July came to a close.

Manhasset, Northern Westchester Hospital in Mount Kisco, and Peconic Bay Medical Center in Riverhead all received four stars. “I see the amazing effort by Northwell Health team members every time I step inside one of our hospitals,” said Michael Dowling, Northwell’s president and chief executive, in a release. “The mission is a good one — raising the health of the communities that we serve — and I’m proud of the work that we continually put in.” Data for the report was collected between January 2017 and September 2020, but excludes the first six months of 2020 at the height of the pandemic.

Oceanside shopping center sold

Carco Builders has picked up a 14,700-square-foot shopping center in Oceanside for $11 million. Basser Kaufman sold the property at 2860 Long Beach Road near Lincoln Avenue after investing $3 million in building renovations, according to Stephen Preuss of Ripco Real Estate, which handled the sale. Carco has no immediate plans for the property except to continue leasing out space to two existing tenants — Ophthalmology Consultants of Long Island and ProHealth Dental.

PSEG wants to avoid shut-offs

With what is hoped to be the worst of the coronavirus pandemic behind everyone, utilities across the state have returned to interrupting service for nonpayment. That includes PSEG Long Island, which resumed shutoffs last month. However, the utility says it’s working with low- and moderate-income customers to help with bills when possible. Some of those services could include deferred payment agreements and lowincome electric rates. Customers with unpaid balances can call PSEG Long Island at (800) 490-0025.

Google Cloud lends hand to Northwell

Northwell Health has joined forces with Google Cloud in a partnership both companies say will improve patient care, clinician experiences, and to help the health and hospital network operate more efficiently. The new alliance will be paramount in Northwell’s effort to transform digital and connected experiences with the cloud and artificial intelligence. It’s expected to help increase the efficiency of care through digital scheduling, automating payer interactions, and providing intelligent summarizations of medical information. Northwell also is expected to use Google Cloud’s AI and machine learning capabilities to help predict what it needs for capacity planning and scheduling, as well as identifying risk indicators to help with early interventions.

The New York State Sheriffs’ Association and FirstNet, Built with AT&T, have partnered to launch a statewide health and wellness program that will be available to all 58 county sheriff ’s offices in New York. The new program comes as 177 first responders committed suicide across the country last year. The program includes a four-part approach in an effort to ensure sheriff ’s department employees have access to help, support and training. That includes a new or improved employee assistance program, crisis and trauma training, school resource officer support, and a public service announcement campaign. The sheriffs’ association will provide resources and training to establish newemployee assistance programs, or expand existing programs. Support include inperson presentations, train-the-trainer sessions, and meetings with individual sheriff ’s office personnel who will act as program leaders to implement a peerbased employee assistance program. Personnel also will receive training from several mental health law enforcement organizations, covering topics like helping those in crisis, advanced crisis intervention, trauma resources, PTSD,

suicide prevention, and dealing with a fellow officer’s death. The sheriffs’ association will set up special health and wellness training for all school resource officers who are members of the association’s Committee on Policing and Safeguarding Schools, as a way to tackle school violence. The training is designed to help officers be better prepared, and have resources available in the event an incident does happen. Finally, the association will create videos and other social media elements to deliver the message “It’s OK to not be OK.” The campaign is intended to publicize the challenges first responders face every day, highlight the effect their service to the community has on their mental health, and raise awareness among sheriff personnel about the resources available to them. In addition, the sheriffs’ association will establish a confidential peer-to-peer hotline staffed by deputy sheriffs and other personnel from around the state to provide early intervention and keep stress from escalating or manifesting. “The general population — and resources like this health and wellness program — are needed to protect our first responder communities,” said Amy Kramer, president of AT&T New York, in a release.

The Impossible Year

t’s one of life’s little ironies that, as kids, we’re admonished that “it’s not polite to point,” yet as adults we’re urged to “get to the point.” I guess it only pinpoints the fact that, for a little dot (as in the top of an exclamation point) the point certainly gets its point across. After all, where would famous sites (and commentators) be without a point of view or guidebooks without their points of interest. Candidates need their “point man” and curmudgeons their point of contention. How would the DMV survive without “points on your license” or accountants without their forever moving decimal point? on Travel agents need their point of departure, just as pilots revel in a three-point landing, and basketball players in a three-point shot that’s often the winning point. Craft folks love their needlepoint; tennis players their match point; dancers their ballet pointe; and artists their “pointillism,” even as musicians study their point and counterpoint. The victorious are always looking to score points; the crooked to shave points and the accusatory to point fingers and lash out with pointed criticism. The desperate reach a point of no return, even as the short-tempered (and items on the stove) reach their boiling point. For the duelist, there is

the point of honor, while for the frail, there is the breaking point. That which is irrelevant is “beside the point,” while that which is pertinent is “to the point” and “on point.” So many westerns have the action occur at “Point Lookout” as captives are taken at gunpoint. Optimists have their high points; pessimists their low points and it takes a shrink to point it all out. Weather forecasters announce the dew point along with the vanishing point, while soldiers visit West Point and sycophants collect brownie points. Hunters rely on their Pointers, debaters on a point of order and lecturers on a PowerPoint or bullet point. Graduates cite their grade-point average oldman while Waze (and a caring clergyman) will forever point you in the right direction. The busy are busy making (and missing) appointments, while a good speaker will always have a point and make the point by building a case point by point. As I sharpen my pencil point, I’m reminded of the truism that all to often things are said or ideas expressed, that are not so much pointless as they are proof that, often, the point is … that there is no point! Now that’s a point to ponder!

No surprise: Couples disagree

Q. I’m an avid reader of your column, and have thought about changes we might make to our home, with lots of concerns. My wife and I don’t agree on certain things. Sometimes your advice makes me skittish about doing anything because, as you explain the regulations, it makes me wonder if what I want to do will ever get done the way I want. Who makes the final decisions about what we can have, my wife and I or the officials? A. That’s a good question. There are so many aspects and people involved, many you will never meet who exercise their own control. You and your wife should sit down together and make a list of the basic things you want to accomplish. You may even want to make the lists separately and then compare. Make three columns: the necesonte eeper sities for repair, the “must haves” for accomplishing your goals and then your wish list. Professional Remodeler Magazine reported that Home Advisor recently surveyed 975 Americans who worked on a home improvement project with a partner, and found that 65 percent of women say they’re the primary decision makers, and 63 percent of men say they are. When disagreements arise, about 30 percent of the partners said they make the decision without telling their significant other. Men said they do not consult the woman 33 percent of the time, while women leave the man out of the decision 25 percent of the time. When it came to discussing compromises, 71 percent of men said they were more likely to bend to their partners’ wishes, while only 51 percent of women say they give in. Budget discussion led to the most difficulties, with paint color right behind, and whether to remove a wall or not was at the lower end of the discussion friction. But that isn’t the end of decision- making. People you’ll probably never meet, like the plans examiners who invoke their interpretation of building regulations (laws) and their particular version of what should be in the plans, such as charts and graphs of windows, doors, energy requirements, zoning data, building code sections spelled out in writing — it’s a long list, and some architects are required to show more items than others, depending on code officials’ requirements and the jurisdiction that reviews the plans. There is no one set of basic requirements for all on a level playing field. Add to that the opinions of architectural review boards you may or may not have a chance to meet with. Forcing a homeowner to have a garage door match an expensive front door is opinion, not a code requirement, for example. Sometimes a contractor may interpret their idea of what they want to do, and you can only hope to get what you want. The most important part of decision-making, for anything in life, is to be flexible, and educate yourselves on what is required versus what is opinion. Good luck!

iven the all-but-declared new cold war between the United States and Russia, it may have seemed unsurprising that Russian President Vladimir Putin’s government would announce plans to pull out of its decades-long partnership with the International Space Station, the orbiting laboratory that allows us here on Earth to conduct research in microgravity, biology, physics and other scientific fields. But it is surprising, and troubling, not only for the space station’s future, but for JAMEs international relaas well. BERnsTEin tions Russia is the United State’s major partner on the space station. What is known as the Russian Orbital Segment was built in Russia and is operated by Russian crew members. It handles such key space station components as guidance, navigation and control. Russian, American and other international partners — the European Space Agency, Canada and Japan — have frequently had astronauts aboard the station since it went into low-Earth orbit over 20 years ago.

It was a big deal when, in the early 1980s, the Russians agreed to stop their struggling efforts to build a space station on their own and instead to cooperate with the international community, led by the U.S. The agreement was accompanied by much fanfare, with then Vice President Al Gore leading an American delegation that met with top Russian space and government officials. Space is a hostile environment to humans, so the space station had to be constructed in huge parts, lifted into orbit by mighty rockets and assembled by the international partners in a series of exhausting space walks. Human habitation of the ISS began in late 2000, aboard the Russian spacecraft Soyuz TM-31, which had launched that October from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. Can you imagine anything like that happening today? Although the Russians have been fully cooperative over the decades, they have from time to time talked openly of building their own space station and going their own way. NASA officials have generally paid little attention, ascribing it to Russia’s almost constant need to remain competitive with the U.S. But late last month, the Russians began

talking once again about their own station. Roscosmos, the Russian space agency, published a long interview with a top Russian space official saying that the agency wants to build, and launch by 2028, its own space station. But on the same day the interview was published, Russia also announced that its crew members on the existing station were working on a cardiac research program designed to help doctors treat heart disease. Publicly, NASA officials are shrugging off Russia’s latest claims, and said the U.S. would continue to act as if nothing had been said about a new station. The work of disconnecting the Russian parts of the existing station would be monumental, and take years. And, NASA officials point out, given Russia’s unprovoked attack on Ukraine and the international economic sanctions against the country, it is unknown how Russia could afford to build its own station, which has cost the international partners many billions of dollars. But NASA and U.S. government officials now have to deal with Putin, who has done more to tear down U.S-Russia relations than any leader since Nikita Khrushchev snuck missiles into Cuba in the early 1960s. NASA and our government also

ecently they have begun talking again about building one of their own.

know that the space station cannot last forever, and that at some point a new one will be needed as a stopping-off point on our way to Mars and maybe elsewhere in our galaxy. As a result, there is more of a sense of concern this time about Russia and its future space intentions. Will the Russians fly away? That concern has been voiced in recent weeks. “We are exploring options to mitigate the potential impacts on the ISS beyond 2024 if Russia does withdraw,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said at a news conference. “For our part, we remain committed to working with ISS partners to ensure the safe operation of the ISS and the astronauts aboard.” The space station would likely continue to do its job without the Russians if they really do withdraw. But beyond the important objectives of space exploration, Russia’s departure would signal something else, and maybe something worse: a further splintering of what was hoped, at one time, to be a new start with the county after the collapse of communism. The U.S., and many in Russia and elsewhere, looked forward to an era of cooperation, scientific and educational advancement, and peace. Those hopes are fading day by day.

Family time on Maine’s rocky seacoast

hings began to go sideways when the rain began, and we broke out the Monopoly set. I try to keep it real when I columnize, and this week I am saying that not every family vacation is perfect every day of the stay. “There are no perfect parents and there are no perfect children, but there are plenty of perfect moments along the way.” — Dave Willis Four weeks ago, we headed to Maine for a long stay, beginning in Kennebunkport, RAnDi then to the PortKREiss land area and then to Bar Harbor. We rented cabins from the usual popular websites, and we were off. We invited our adult kids to come for any part of the time, with the ulterior motive of getting to see the grandkids, ages 19, 17, 15 and 13. Everyone showed up for the same week in Portland. Two adults were almost definitely just over Covid. My grandson came down with a stomach virus the second night, and that triggered a global reaction in our germphobic family. We don’t live near our grandchildren,

so our visits are supercharged with expectations of wonderfulness. The kids met and exceeded our expectations with their kindness and enthusiasm and general good nature. We experienced more issues with our adult kids, who somehow don’t think we should tell them what to do anymore. How can that be right? There was much angst and drama over phones. Your teenagers’ iPhones are now part of vacation planning. Decide when they can use them and when they must be put away. It is the biggest issue of family time.

when they played Monopoly when she was 4 years old. It’s tough going broke when you’re 4 and the landlord is your dad. I hadn’t played in decades, and didn’t realize how soul-suckingly endless the game is. And how capitalistic. And white. And meanspirited. The teenage grandkids suggested a Covid version, with a “Go Directly to the Hospital” card and a “Get a Dose of Paxlovid” card and a place on the game board for a homeless shelter. They have very dark senses of humor, but I think they come by their cynical side honestly, having lived through a pandemic. The differences among the generations seemed sharper this time around. I asked if we should watch the new HBO miniseries about Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward. They asked if he was “the dude” on the salad dressing bottle. We had our splendid moments and we had our mini-combustions.

rock, but not necessarily in sync. When I watched the charming, life-affirming story “The Durrells in Corfu,” on HBO, I worried. In the 1930s, Mrs. Durrell hauled her kids off to an island in Greece and gracefully negotiated their teenage outrages, missteps, unwanted pregnancies, and run-ins with the law. What about the mosquitoes? They had no screens! Where did they get money and food? In our family dynamic, I teach. I’ve always been a teacher, and I find teachable moments all day in every situation. My grandkids humor me. I want these teenagers to get through this rocky time, solid and whole. I want them to refuse the temptations of easy ways out and easy escapes and easy workarounds when the moment demands focus and dedication and a strong moral compass. I took the opportunity of Maine’s dark night sky to talk to the kids about the Webb telescope, and we looked at the first photos online — the space shots seen around the world. We stood outside our cabin in Cape Elizabeth, under the great black velvet dome, and I wished upon the stars for each of them.

“Your children will become what you are; so be what you want them to be.” — David Bly

“Don’t tell me the sky’s the limit when there are footsteps on the moon.” — Paul Brandt

When I read books about highly adaptive, cooperative, non-neurotic families, I can’t completely identify. In this family, we

he grankids exceeded our expectations with their kindness and good nature.

“You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.” — Khalil Gibran We were blessed with good weather and nearby fish markets and fresh produce and a grill in the yard. The kids swam in the freezing ocean until a good Samaritan on a surfboard waved everyone out of the surf, miming with his hands that a shark was cruising nearby. Global warming is pushing the sharks closer to shore. We had one day of serious rain, so we broke out the Monopoly set that came with the house. One of my kids immediately banned her dad from playing because she said he had made her cry

It’s time to go to the precinct and vote ... again?

ith school board elections and the June primary for the Assembly, it seems we’re making more trips to our polling precinct than we might make to the gym. If only filling ovals on a ballot equaled 30 minutes on the elliptical. But we’ll be called to exercise our civic duty not once more this year, but twice, beginning with a second primary in just a few weeks, on Aug. 23, when we will decide on party nominees for the U.S. House and State Senate races. And then we’ll have to choose from among all of them in November to finally decide who will represent us. And if that weren’t confusing enough, this month’s primary is giving us the chance to do something that none of us have done in a New York election before: vote for candidates from political parties that aren’t our own. It’s not quite the “open primary” in use in a number of states — in which voters can select representatives from any and all parties when there’s more than one candidate — but it’s close. Anyone casting a ballot for this last primary has the option to choose their political party any time up to, and including, primary day itself, meaning that if you’re a Republican and want to cast a ballot in the Democratic primary, all you need to do is re-register. Allowing voters to change party affilia-

letters Modernize Atlantic Beach Bridge tollbooths To the Editor: T he Nassau County Bridg e Authority is dysfunctional and should be replaced by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority! The Atlantic Beach Bridge pass card scanners often don’t work, so a user doesn’t know how many rides are left on the card. An “empty” pass card at an automated tollbooth has obvious consequences. One or more tollbooths are often closed on busy days, which results in long lines. The MTA, with E-ZPass and tollby-plate technologies, has alleviated the long lines and frustrations at New York City bridges and tunnels. Undoubtedly, with much less traffic volume, the Atlantic Beach Bridge crossing time would be equally shortened and rendered less frustrating.

tion is nothing new, of course. But the cutoff is generally in February. That changed when courts got involved in the censusfueled redistricting process that ultimately split the primaries to June and August. This could allow for some savvy voters to play spoiler in other political parties. Like in the State Senate’s 7th District, which covers a number of North Shore communities, including Glen Cove and Sea Cliff. Generally, Republicans wouldn’t even need to come out for this race, because there’s just one candidate, the Republican Jack Martins. However, Republicans looking to have a voice in whom Martins faces in November could change their party affiliation to Democratic up until Aug. 23, and cast votes for Jeremy Joseph. If Joseph gets enough votes, he could topple incumbent Democratic State Sen. Anna Kaplan, who’s expected to win reelection otherwise. That strategy could also extend to the congressional races, like in the South Shore seat U.S. Rep. Kathleen Rice is giving up. Once again, there’s just a single Republican running — Hempstead Town Councilman Anthony D’Esposito — but five Democrats. Many see that primary race as a battle between Malverne Mayor Keith Corbett and former Town of Hempstead Supervisor Laura Gillen. But non-Democrats could easily jump into that contest and

boost any of the other challengers, like Nassau County Legislator Carrié Solages, or even one of the virtually unknown newcomers, Muzib Huq or Kevin Bryan Shakil. How much of an impact this “open” primary may have is debatable — but as long as the possibility is there, it can’t be discounted. Especially if, as expected, there is low turnout. Yes, district lines have changed, but the adjustments are not as dramatic as they were. And this is yet another call to your local polling place when you’ve already been asked twice before. But don’t let that discourage you from casting a ballot. We tend to think our votes don’t matter, but they do — even when elections aren’t close. Freely expressing a meaningful choice on who should represent you is something not many other countries enjoy. And for us, it’s not a luxury, it’s a right — a right so many have fought (and even died) to protect and preserve for us. If you don’t want to go to the polls yourself, you have until Monday, Aug. 8, to request an absentee ballot. You can also cast your ballot early, between Aug. 13 and 21. For more information on any of this, go to NassauCountyNY.gov/566/Board-ofElections. Sure, another vote a big ask. But it’s also what’s expected of every one of us as Americans.

he beach is cut by the razory icewind — the wreck-guns sound, The tempest lulls — the moon comes floundering through the

drifts. A tall obelisk rises from the heart of Rockville Cemetery, the Lynbrook burial ground that dates back to the earliest days of our nation. It remembers the 139 souls lost in a pair of shipwrecks — just weeks apart — off the shore of Long Island. The Bristol and the Mexico, filled primarily with Irish immigrants seeking a life away MICHAEL from the Great Famine, were HINMAN claimed by the freezing waters in 1836 and the beginning of 1837. Capt. Alexander McKown was guiding the Bristol on only its second voyage, waiting to dock in New York Harbor. As a storm blew in, McKown pushed the ship east, believing the waters around Rockaway Beach were deep enough. They weren’t. The Bristol smashed into a sandbar, and winds and waves started to topple the vessel. McKown did everything he could to save his passengers, moving them to a safer part of the ship and firing his cannons as a cry for help. He could see people

on shore, but knew it was impossible for them to do anything. When help finally did arrive, McKown did his best to get every survivor off the wreck — even if it meant sacrificing himself. “Capt. McKown was the last person to leave the wreck,” according to a story published in The Hempstead Inquirer on Nov. 30, 1836. “He had been repeatedly urged by the boatmen to save himself, but resolutely refused, until all under his care were safe. He had saved nothing; not even the ship’s papers. All his own clothing is lost, and he came ashore in his vest and pantaloons. He was so much bruised and injured by the washing of the waves that he is obliged to be taken to the wreck master’s house. A distance of seven miles from the wreck, where he now lies, seriously ill.” I look where the ship helplessly heads end on — I hear the burst as She strikes — I hear the howls of dismay — they grow fainter and fainter. McKown was a hero, but Capt. Charles Winslow was not. In the final hours of 1836, on New Year’s Eve, Winslow had brought his own ship, the three-masted Mexico, from Liverpool, filled with Irish families optimistic about a bright future in America. Once again, harbor pilots were asleep at the wheel, and once again a storm

hipwrecks off the coast of Long Island are commemorated in a cemetery.

You’re already paying too much To the Editor: Health insurance providers seek an average rate increase of nearly 19 percent next year for individuals, and more than 16 percent for small group plans, according to published reports. The chutzpah of this request is breathtaking. Health insurance providers have earned record profits throughout the pandemic. Claiming inflation is causing their need to increase their premiums, they blithely ask the state’s financial services department for an increase more than double the rate of inflation. It is time to spend our dollars more efficiently and stop supporting the profits of a byzantine number of companies, plans and networks.

forced a ship out into the open waters, winds propelling it straight for Long Island. The Mexico made it as far as Long Beach, hitting a sandbar, where the ship flooded with icy ocean water. With the Bristol still fresh in his mind, Capt. Raynor “Rock” Smith quickly made his way through complete darkness to the scene. The Freeport wrecking master was ready to save as many as he could. But one of the first people to jump into his boat was Winslow. “He grabbed his sword and the ship’s strongbox, and leaped into the rescue boat,” according to a historical marker in Rockville Cemetery. He left 115 men, women and children behind to “freeze to death on the deck of his ship.” If he and his crew had stayed on the Mexico, they could have easily guided Smith’s rowboat back and forth, and saved most, if not all, of the passengers. It was a tragedy that never should have happened. I cannot aid with my wringing fingers, I can but rush to the surf, and let it drench me and freeze upon me. A mass grave was created at the cemetery for those who were lost, while the people in its surrounding communities pooled their money to build the monument that dominates the historical site

even today. In 1953, it caught the attention of a young Cornell University student who had befriended the Lynbrook village clerk at the time, Harold Dana. “In Lynbrook’s old cemetery on Merrick Road, there stands a white marble monument, 12 feet high and four feet square at the base,” Ruth Bader — the future U.S. Supreme Court justice — wrote in the spring edition of New York Folklore Quarterly. “At the south end of the monument, 139 bodies are buried in two extended rows. The years have not been kind to the inscription carved into the stone. But on close inspection, the story it tells can be read.” It’s said that after these two tragedies, protocols at New York Harbor changed, ensuring there would always be pilots on duty, ready to bring in ships needing to dock. The wrecks also changed the lives of those who witnessed them. Including a young Quaker teenager living in the Village of Hempstead. Walt Whitman would share his haunting memories nearly 20 years later in his poem “The Sleepers,” which was part of the first edition of “Leaves of Grass.” I search with the crowd — not one of the company is wash’d to us alive; In the morning I help pick up the dead and lay them in rows in a barn.

According to the Annals of Internal Medicine, the United States would save $628 billion if administrative costs here were as low as they are in Canada with a single-payer system. Some 20 percent of every premium dollar goes to administration, not to health care. The New York Health Act would provide comprehensive care to every New York resident, and save billions in administrative waste. The plan would cover lifesaving reproductive health care. One plan for everyone would deliver health care more equitably, and would be paid for more equitably by a progressive income tax. Currently, more than 50 percent of New Yorkers are “under-insured” because they simply cannot afford the premiums in a comprehensive plan. It is past time to pass the New York Health Act. Keep this in mind when you vote in November. Support the candidates who support the New York Health Act. HELEN MELTzER-KRIM Bronx
