Israel leaves Woodsburgh, but will still serve as adviser

By JEffREY BEssEN jbessen@liherald.com

Lee Israel served as mayor of Woodsburgh village for the past decade, and as a trustee and in other roles dating back to 2005. Though he has stepped down and moved out of the Five Towns municipality, Israel will remain involved in an advisory position.

“Woodsburgh will always be my home,” he said of the village where he lived for 23 of his 30 years in the Five Towns. “I have devoted a lot of time to this community, and plan on con-

tinuing to do so.” Israel, 54, cannot serve in an elected position as a non-resident, so he will take on the appointed post of chairman of strategic planning and projects.

Being civically involved and active in philanthropic efforts came naturally to Israel, he said. “I’ve always taken an active role in everything I do,” he said. “It’s in my nature to go in 100 percent. I am thankful and appreciative that I’m in a position to be able to help.”

Beginning as Woodburgh’s commissioner of roads (2005-07), Israel also served as village Continued on page 12

Be-Leaf in yourself!

I

when you’re stuck in traffic? Or the AC breaks down? Or your spouse arrives home late, neglecting to call? Or do you work yourself up, feeling even more frustrated when you can’t do anything to alter what’s happening?

No, I’m not saying that nothing matters. But, too often we put excessive emphasis on insignificant events. Imagine yourself a month from now, a year from now. Do you believe what stressed you out today will be of any signifiinda cance to you then?

t’s autumn. There’s a refreshing cool breeze in the air. Leaves are beginning to change color, which will soon bring a beautiful panorama to our vision. What a perfect time for us to change too, by letting go of our fears and letting in a strong belief in ourselves! Yes I know it’s not easy to change, but if you put into practice three simple principles, I guarantee you’ll feel more contented, carefree, and cheerier!

Adults are great at telling upset kids that what they’re stressed about doesn’t really matter. Your daughter’s having a bad hair day — your son’s team lost a game — a kid made a snarky remark to your kid. As adults, we appreciate that though these are difficult moments, they’re not the end of the world.

Great! But how smart are you with your own difficult moments? Do you remind yourself that it’s no big deal

L

You do not have to have it all!

Often adults rush through their lives at a frantic pace, trying to have it all, get it all, do it all. This obsessive “do” orientation creates mega-stress for you and those closest to you. You get up early,

The UBS Financial Services NE Division in Garden City, which includes Atlantic Beach resident Barry Ringelheim, collected an assortment of medical supplies from Advil to Zytec for the group Ukraine and Ukrainians Abroad.

Ringelheim enlisted the help of Five Towns Kiwanis that donated $250, Cedarhurst-based Rock and Wrap It Up! led by Syd Mandelbaum donated medical supplies as did the tennis cubs from the Lawrence Yacht & Country Club and Lawrence resident Paris Popack, a village trustee, contributed a large supply of needed medical items.

stay up late. You try to do so much. You push yourself to always do your best, yet you’re still dissatisfied with so much — your job, body, home, family, and more. You name it!

Ukraine and Ukrainians Abroad was established in 2017 with its primary goal of supporting Ukrainian scientists and educational programs for Ukrainian scholars. After the Feb. 24 Russian invasion of Ukraine the organization shifted its focus to providing assistance for Ukrainian refugees, hospitals, civilians and the Ukrainian military. Hundreds of pounds of humanitarian aid and supplies are packed by volunteers at the group’s donation center and shopped to Ukraine daily.

The older the better

ou know you’re sick cause it hurts, and you know you’re successful when bad guys hate you.

You know you’re loved when the grandkids rush over to hug you, and you know when you’re smart when you realize how many are so much smarter than you.

But how do you know when you’ve grown older? How do you know you’ve grown older and not just wiser or simply “up?” Asked this question of how you know you’ve grown older, my older aunt offered the following suggestions: — You know you’ve grown older when movies now considered “classics” you saw first run in a theatre.

— You know you’ve grown older when the deli man doesn’t know you, but the pharmacist calls you by the first name.

— You know you’ve grown older when you on would rather hear a secret than tell one.

— You know you’ve grown older when you complain of a “draft” no matter where in the restaurant you’re seated.

— You know you’ve grown older when your old pal, Joe Jr., is followed around by Joe III and Joe IV. — You know you’ve grown older when “I will” is replaced by “I did,” and “I hope” is replaced by “I remember.”

— You know you’ve grown older when

stuff you’ve stored or forgotten is back in style or deemed an antique.

— You know you’ve grown older, when worlds like telegraph, carbon paper, pay phone, carburetor and subway token are still a part of our vocabulary.

— You know you’ve grown older, when you are the “here” where the buck stops.

— You know you’ve grown older when you remember “history” as past current events.

— You know you’ve grown older when folks call you “Mr. Goldman” and no one understands (and reacts) to your response, “Mr. Goldman was my father.”

— You know you’ve grown older when you look in a mirror and see your parents or react to a situation and hear your parents.

— You know you’ve grown older when you “understand” more often then you “know” and even those things you “know,” oLdman you know with less certainty.

— You know you’ve grown older when you’re kids not only agree with you but tell you so without you even asking. and, of course, — You know you’ve grown older when you say (and write) you’ve grown “older” rather than “old.”

A homecoming date with Hewlett was on the agenda for Valley Stream North last Saturday afternoon with both teams looking to break their respective losing streaks. The Spartans set the tone early and never trailed in the Conference III football contest, resulting in a 27-6 victory to send their fans home happy.

North quarterback Nick Naumov got the scoring started in the opening quarter with a 9-yard touchdown run to cap off a seven play 64 yard drive in which the Spartans faced a 4th-and-1 they converted. The senior captain finished the day completing 10 of 16 passing attempts for 156 yards.

“He’s our best athlete on the team,” VSN head coach Mike Paolillo said of Naumov. “We want the ball in his hands. He’s been running and throwing the ball well.”

Back-to-back false start penalties didn’t seem to faze the Spartans on their first drive of the second quarter as Valley Stream North’s homecoming king, Josh Lopez, had a 1-yard touchdown run to complete a nine-play, 89-yard drive. The senior captain finished with 84 rushing yards on 14 carries. “He is our man,” Paolillo said. “He’s been a three-year starter for me since his sophomore year. He’s doing great things.”

After going down 14-0 with time winding down in the opening half, Hewlett senior captain Ariel Waldman punched home an 8-yard rushing touchdowns to get the Bulldogs on the board. That, too, capped off a nine-play drive and covered 69 yards. Waldman led the team in rushing on the day with 18 carries and 72 yards.

“The offensive-line got it together,” Hewlett head coach John Palladino said.

“We were able to give him the ball a few times and we were able to put together a drive.”

Despite two rushing touchdowns in the first half, the ground attack was still an area that Valley Stream North wanted to establish in the second half.

“We like to establish a run game,” Lopez said. “When we ran, we came back in the second half wanting to not get too

The Spartans did just that in the third quarter as Danny Rojas added a 1-yard touchdown to complete a seven-play drive that began at their own 47. The senior running back finished the day with 50 yards on eight carries.

Junior Terry Medor put the finishing touches on the victory as he returned a 40-yard punt for a touchdown with just over a minute to play.

Not much offense in the air was generated by Hewlett (0-5) as it was held to 36

passing yards, but the visitors got strong rushing performances from Waldman and quarterback John Cusumano.

“We need to create more turnovers on defense,” Palladino said. “We’re just not scoring enough points right now. We’re playing a little too much defense.”

With the win, Valley Stream North improved to 2-3 and will take on Lynbrook next on the road Saturday at 2 p.m.

Hewlett has a tall task Friday night when undefeated Plainedge comes to town for a 6 p.m. start.

Abortion looms large at Gillibrand town hall kchin@liherald.com

It’s been nearly four months since the U.S. Supreme Court essentially overturned Roe v. Wade, leaving the decision on whether to allow abortions back to the states. Yet, women’s reproductive rights remain a primary issue for a number of voters, including those who visited Hofstra University last week to hear from U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand.

It was certainly on Francene Friedman’s mind.

“Having survived two ectopic pregnancies many, many, many years ago, I would like to know what would happen if, God forbid, my granddaughter decides to go that way,” the Cedarhurst resident said.

“How would she able to survive?”

Gillibrand, one of the state’s two Democratic representatives in the upper chamber of Capitol Hill, characterized the court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization as a broader attack on personal decisions.

“The challenge we have is that the Dobbs decision said that women in reproductive years do not have a right to privacy,” Gillibrand said. “Which is a shocking decision.”

A pregnancy is considered ectopic when a fertilized egg is prevented from entering the uterus, which could damage nearby organs and even threaten the life of the would-be mother. Such a condition could require dilation and curettage, Gilli-

brand said — removing tissue from inside the uterus to help clear a path.

Yet, such a procedure “might be considered an abortion in some state laws’ analysis,” the senator said.

“You might have to go to court to get your D and C. Well, you’ll be dead by then.”

While those advocating to maintain reproductive rights established through Roe v. Wade are disappointed by the court’s reversal, Gillibrand did acknowledge the decision has rallied more voters behind the Democratic Party ahead of the crucial midterm elections where Gillibrand’s party hopes to retain control over both the U.S. House and the U.S. Senate.

Still, the senator encouraged voters at her town hall to make their voices heard on the issue.

“I think for both of your grandchildren, their rights and privileges are at risk,” she said. “We should fight for those rights and privileges back.”

But should Congress hold the U.S. Supreme Court more accountable? That’s something Hofstra student Nicholas Isaacs asked Gillibrand, especially since a number of justices who voted for Dobbs told senators during their confirmation hearings Roe was watertight precedent.

“I think that the Supreme Court justices did lie,” Gillibrand said. “I think that they intentionally misled the senators in these hearings to believe that they would not overturn precedent.

“They should be held accountable. The only way we can do that is through

impeachment, which would take too much time and is not the priority of the American people. I don’t recommend that, but I do think the House can do an investigation and publish all the statements so people know for sure that these men and women were not honest.”

Gillibrand also is for exploring term limits for Supreme Court justices, although such a move would likely require a Constitutional amendment.

“I think that the idea that Supreme Court justices and all other judges who are appointed to life will make them nonpolitical just isn’t true,” Gillibrand said.

“Now they’re appointed to life and they’re 100 percent political. That idea that they deserve a lifetime appointment, I think,

should be discontinued. I just don’t believe it.”

Gillibrand also fielded question about the economy, mental health care, and the upcoming midterms. She also received a thank you from representatives of Moms Demand Action for the passage of gun reform legislation over the summer.

Like other lawmakers on both sides of the aisle, Gillibrand says she finds town halls like the Hofstra one as a crucial part of democracy.

“I think this is one of the most important things I do as a senator: Listen to my constituents,” Gillibrand said. “Hear what’s on your mind. Answer your questions.

“It allows me to do my job much better.”

Where everyone knows D’Esposito’s name

By MICHAEL HINMAN mhinman@liherald.com

I

t’s hard to find anyone within the Town of Hempstead who doesn’t know who Anthony D’Esposito is, and it’s even more difficult to find someone who hasn’t actually met him.

That’s because D’Esposito makes sure he’s anywhere and everywhere. Whether it was his time as a detective with the New York Police Department, to his volunteer work with local fire departments, to his current role as a Hempstead town councilman — D’Esposito can’t go anywhere without someone he knows running into him.

“I’ve been super active in my community, pretty much my entire adult life,” D’Esposito recently told reporters during a Herald Roundtable session. “People need to be able to see you. People need to be able to access you. And the only way that you can deliver the message — and the voices — of the people that you represent here in Washington is by hearing them.”

Wait, Washington? Yep. D’Esposito is ready to make the jump from town representative to a U.S. House representative, running to replace Kathleen Rice in the 4th Congressional District.

“You know, in the police department, we have a saying that even in the coldest of nights or the hottest of days, you always drive around with the windows down so you can hear the streets, smell the streets, and understand what’s going on,” he said.

“That’s exactly what needs to be done in politics and government. You need to have the windows rolled down so you can hear and smell the streets.”

D’Esposito wants to be the first Republican representing this part of Nassau County since Dan Frisa won the seat back in 1995. Since then, the 4th Congressional District spent nine terms under Carolyn McCarthy, and then the last four terms under Kathleen Rice — both Democrats.

If he wins, D’Esposito could likely find himself a part of the majority if the GOP takes control of the House as expected. But he doesn’t plan to steamroll his way through the chamber.

“It’s all about forging relationships,” he said. “It’s about mutual respect. During my tenure on the town board, I’ve worked with Democrats and Republicans to deliver real results. It didn’t matter if you’re a Democrat or if you’re a Republican. You’re a Town of Hempstead neighbor, and that’s what mattered.”

That doesn’t mean, however, he’s setting aside his conservative beliefs. Like the right to bear arms. But those rights also carry with them heavy responsibility.

D’Esposito remembers a program in New York City known as the “Trigger-Lock Program,” where anyone arrested for criminal possession of a weapon was immediately referred for federal prosecution. There, they were likely to face far stiffer sentences.

“That sends a message around the streets that maybe I should think twice about carrying an illegal firearm,” D’Esposito said. “We need to expand programs like that, and we need to take them into every community we can.”

D’Esposito also supports requiring firearm training, and for improved back-

ANtHoNy D’EsposIto, A Hempstead town councilman running to succeed Kathleen Rice in the 4th Congressional District, told reporters like Ed Weintrob of The Jewish Star that he has worked hard over the years to build relationships with the Jewish community, and to fight back against antisemitism.

Anthony D’Esposito on the issues Anthony D’Esposito faces Democrat Laura Gillen in November to see who will succeed Kathleen Rice in the 4th Congressional District.

Among the positions he shared with Herald Community Newspapers: Florida, texas sending immigrants to other states “Do I want to see illegal immigrants coming into the city that we love?

Probably not, But as an elected official, I also understand their point, when you have places that have taken the position of being a sanctuary city. I mean, you are elected to do a job. You’re elected to deliver results and find solutions to problems, and they’re taking their problems and finding a solution.” providing aid to Ukraine “I’ve been supportive of sending aid to Ukraine, but I think there also needs to get to a point where we take a look at how much has been sent to Ukraine. We also need to start putting America first, when we have issues like parents and special needs caregivers not being able to get formula. But we have tons of ground checks. If it’s good for law enforcement, it should be good for everyone.

But unlike many Democrats, D’Esposito isn’t quite ready to turn his back on civilian ownership of military-grade assault weapons.

money going elsewhere.”

Creating bipartisanship “I have a unique background that is not just about working with people across the aisle. I saw in a car. I’ve been on crime scenes with people. I’ve sat across the interview room with people who have killed their family. And I’ve been able to establish a mutual respect to the point where I got that person to admit to killing their family. That is an education that you’re not going to get at any Ivy League school. That’s real-life experience.” pathways to citizenship “Everyone should have the opportunity and the right to come to America and live the American dream, but it should be done correctly. Now every state has become a border state. It’s not just the fact that we have open borders, it’s the fact that the illegal immigration is affecting every piece of industry, whether you’re a farmer, a local business owner.

Whether you’re a newspaper, whether you own a local restaurant, or whether you are in law enforcement.”

“I don’t think anyone and everyone should be able to purchase them,” the councilman said, “but banning them across the board and painting all assault weapons with one broad brush is not the answer, either. There needs to be increased

background checks. There needs to be a purpose” to purchase it.

D’Esposito also supports smaller government — but not necessarily through massive workforce cuts.

“Perhaps there’s spending cut opportunities through attrition,” he said. “Just because 10 people retire doesn’t mean that you need 10 people hired. We have the ability now, with technology, to do more with less. And that’s really the mantra.

“It’s very hard to take such a huge government and start just sitting at a table, picking off where we can increase or decrease spending. But if you take it piece by piece, and you bring real-life issues that you’ve dealt with — or I’ve dealt with — and you can deliver them in a larger scale, obviously, it’s going to take time.”

Like many Republicans running for office, D’Esposito has been characterized as someone who is anti-choice. But if he is elected to Congress, D’Esposito pledges he will never vote for a nationwide abortion ban. However, he is calling out what he claims are Democrats’ push to allow abortions up to nine months into the pregnancy — something the Associated Press described as a misrepresentation of a bill introduced by lawmakers that would allow for an extremely rare late-term abortion necessary to protect the health or life of the mother.

“Nothing is changing in New York,” D’Esposito said. “Women’s rights are protected. But I am absolutely against the lateterm extreme measures that the Democrats have taken in New York.”

Gillen says to never count her out of a race

NASSAU HERALD — October 13, 2022

By MICHAEL HINMAN mhinman@liherald.com

L

aura Gillen is used to being the underdog. After more than a decade as a litigator with Uniondale’s Westerman Ball Ederer Miller Zucker & Sharfstein, Gillen decided to turn her attention to public service, eyeing the Hempstead town supervisor seat that hadn’t been held by a Democrat in a century.

“No one thought I had a chance,” Gillen told reporters during a recent Herald Roundtable event. “Most of the people who thought I would win were related to me, and it was very difficult to raise money because they all thought that, ‘If I give you money, then the other side’s going to know. And they’re going to get mad at me.’”

But Gillen did win, thanks to what she describes as grassroots support. And while her time leading the town lasted only until the next election, Gillen believes no one should underestimate her again. Especially as she looks to succeed Kathleen Rice in Congress.

“I’m the best representative for this seat,” Gillen said. “I grew up in this district. I went to school in this district.

Now I am raising four children. I own a house in this district. I go to the grocery store in this district. I really care about what happens here.”

It’s what pushed Gillen to seek public office in the first place, and why she said she worked hard as town supervisor, even when she felt others inside the government were pushing against her. Gillen still worked to make the Hempstead town government more transparent — putting contracts and other paperwork online — and says she even stopped taxes from going up.

Succeeding despite adversity is something Gillen says she’s ready for, especially in a Congress that is most likely to flip to Republican control come January.

“I went into the most challenging circumstances” as town supervisor, she said. “I went into the lion’s den, and I never back down. Ever. But that being said, it’s not about fighting. I found a way to build bridges.”

Like with Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman, a Republican, where they tackled a number of issues like breastfeeding and ethics.

“I feel like I’m perfectly prepared to go to Washington,” Gillen said. “At least there I’ll probably have a few more friends that I had in the town. And I’ll reach across the aisle when appropriate, and still make things work.”

One of the things a new Congress could face almost immediately, however, is what appears to be an ever-growing immigration crisis, to the point where some seeking a better life in America are becoming pawns from the largest political factions within that America.

Gillen spoke to Herald reporters just as Florida governor Ron DeSantis sent a plane full of immigrants who had made their way to Texas, up north to Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts.

Immigration has indeed been a mess,

ForMEr HEMpstEAd towN supervisor Laura Gillen sits down to share her views as a congressional candidate with Herald Community Newspaper reporters, including executive editor Michael Hinman. Gillen faces Anthony D’Esposito for the 4th Congressional District seat in November.

Laura Gillen on the issues Laura Gillen faces Republican Anthony D’Esposito in November to see who will succeed Kathleen Rice in the 4th Congressional District.

Among the positions she shared with Herald Community Newspapers reporters: Gun violence in schools “I’m so frightened for the future that is ahead for my daughters. After one of the school shootings, I actually was researching bulletproof backpacks for my child. It’s crazy to think that’s the world we live in. When we were growing up, my mother never worried that something bad was going to happen to me in school. You were safe in school.” politization of issues affecting the country “There are smart people on both sides of the aisle. As a litigator, you have to spend your whole day talking to people who are being paid to disagree with you.

Gillen admits. But it’s also something that can be fixed, if only leaders will just set aside politics long enough to make it happen.

“We have been talking about this for decades, right?” she said. “We need a pathway to citizenship. It’s too convolut-

And generally, the best solution … is to settle the case. That’s what I spent a lot of my career doing.” police funding and reform “We have to have well-funded police forces. We need to build relationships between our police force and our community. Policing, in that respect, is better accomplished on a more local level than at a federal level, because on a federal level, you don’t know the community.”

Forgiving student debt “The cost of a college education has become completely unaffordable. We really have to build up our public institutions and public colleges. I mean, it’s getting harder and harder to get into public colleges, and more people are like, “I can’t afford private colleges. And I think there also has to be alternative paths where people can get into learning trades. ed for people who come here seeking political asylum. Or for people who are here — who are part of the fabric of our society, who our society probably couldn’t function without. If we took everybody who’s undocumented here and got rid of them, our society would

probably break down because we’re so used to having them here.

“They’re members of our workforce.

They contribute to our economy.”

Still, that doesn’t mean the border should be a free-for-all, Gillen adds. It’s important to know who is coming in, and ensuring the safety of those already here. But once they do get through that process, everyone should have a chance to contribute.

And then, of course, there’s the one topic that many political observers say might have the biggest impact on who wins control of Congress in the midterms: abortion.

Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization essentially overturn the 50-year federal precedent that allowed women to end pregnancies.

Gillen says her position couldn’t be more clear: The only people who should be involved in reproductive decisions like this are a woman and her doctor.

“We have to preserve that a woman has the right to make her own health care decisions,” she said. “Look, I have four children. I’ve had complicated pregnancies. This issue hits home for me because I’ve had a lot of issues with pregnancies in my life. And I can tell you who had no business weighing in on that — who I am not inviting into my consultation room with my doctor. And that’s the government.”

Israel leaves a record of long-term service continued from front page treasurer (2007-09), trustee (2009-13) and police commissioner (2011-12), and then succeeded Susan Schlaff as mayor in 2013.

Israel and the board of trustees helped to create an online presence for a village with a population of just over 800. To help ensure the safety of its residents, whose median family income is just under $190,00 per year, license plate reader cameras connected to the Nassau County Police Department were installed around the village, the NCPD’s 4th Precinct conducts security patrols and there are video cameras as well.

Israel also listed Woodsburgh’s “fiscally sound” budgets and no tax increases in eight out of nine years as accomplishments of his administration, along with the repaving of village roads, the implementation of a tax billing and collection program, the updating of a majority of the village office systems and policies and the installation of a resident emergency notification system.

“I love the action and responsibility of the position,” Israel said of being mayor, “the interaction with my team, with my staff and fellow residents. I was always a very hands-on mayor, and liked to be involved in the details of running a municipality.”

Applying that outlook to charitable organizations, Israel is currently a South Shore board member of the UJA-Federation of NY, a board member of Communi-

He has been a member of the Winthrop University Hospital Board of Regents since 2013, and the hospital’s board of directors since 2014.

“I want to always play an active role in improving where I live and give back to

the community,” he said.

His tenure as mayor has not always been smooth sailing. For the past five and a half years, the village has been entangled in issues with the Woodmere Club, from its sale to developers Efrem Gerszberg and Robert Weiss, to the closing of the community landmark, to the various lawsuits that have resulted.

“I have the utmost respect for mayor Israel,” Gerszberg wrote in an email.

“Over the past five years there have been times that mayor Israel had to take adversarial position in support of the interests of his constituents. Nevertheless, he has acted as a gentleman who respects all people, even those opposed to his position.”

That respect also extends to the remaining village board members, who acted on Israel’s recommendation that Trustee Jake Harman, who was serving as deputy mayor, be appointed mayor.

“We ran together 10 years ago, and the last several terms have worked closely — nobody’s heart is (more) in the right place or dedicated,” Harman said. “I’m sorry to see him go. He has a unique ability to listen to you and considers everything.”

Harman and Trustees Alan Hirmes and Shira Hoschander now have the job of appointing someone to the board.

“We’ll have some deliberations,” Harman said.

“There are several qualified individuals that would be welcomed additions.”

Though he is now living on the North Shore, Israel, who is married and has two g rown children, will remain involved in village affairs, and is upbeat about its future. “I am very optimistic about Woodsburgh despite the controversy of development,” he said, “and confident that this, too, will work out to the betterment of Woodsburgh and the surrounding community.”

one-man show returns, showcasing his seasons of love and loss

By Michael Hinman hrough the late, great Jonathan Larson, we learned how much can happen over the course of 525,600 minutes. So, one can only imagine what Anthony Rapp must have been up to over the past 4,730,400 minutes, when the actor and singer last performed on the Adelphi University Performing Arts Center stage.

We’ll find out Sunday, Oct. 16, when Rapp returns, ready to bring his memoir, “Without You,” to life at the very school Larson once attended.

It’s a story that begins in 1994. Although he’d already made a name for himself as a teen actor in film hits like “Adventures in Babysitting” and “Dazed and Confused,” Rapp found himself making ends meet working at Starbucks when he got a chance to audition for a rather unusual play.

It was a modern take of “La Bohème” called “Rent”— and it would change Rapp’s life forever. With a little help from R.E.M.’s “Losing My Religion,” Rapp won the role of struggling filmmaker Mark Cohen squatting in an apartment with his friends in East Village’s Alphabet City.

But Larson would die suddenly just shy of his 36th birthday — when “Rent” was about to begin Off-Broadway previews. It turned Rapp’s world upside-down.

“Sometimes, we would talk to each other,” Rapp later told NPR’s Jeff Lunden. “But sometimes, we would just sit in silence and shock and, like, there was sort of nothing to say. We would cry.”

Rapp would finally find the words in his 2006 memoir “Without You,” that not only detailed those early days on the “Rent” stage, but also shares his grief over losing his mother, Mary Lee Rapp, from breast cancer a year after Larson’s death.

Never forgetting his ties to the stage, Rapp turned the book into a one-man show not long after, mixing songs from “Rent” along with some of his own musical creations.

“Without You” feels more personal than one might expect from such a production, but that’s because it is personal. It took Rapp years to perfect the book it’s based on simply because of how personal the material is.

Even the title has special meaning, pulled straight from the “Rent” score. Because without you, the ground thaws. The flowers bloom. The breeze warms. Yet, “life goes on, but I’m gone. ‘Cause I die, without you.”

Rapp has resurrected his show from time to time, and brings it to Larson’s alma mater on the very stages he himself had performed while a student there. Larson’s presence is still felt to this day, especially with Adelphi’s annual Larson Legacy Concert Series, which features many of the recipients of Jonathan Larson Grants from American Theatre Wing.

Those winners have included future Pulitzer Prize winner Michael R. Jackson, as well as Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, who created “Dear Evan Hansen” and the music for the Hugh Jackman film “The Greatest Showman.”

But Sunday, it will be a bit of a quieter affair, even with a five-piece band.

“It’s like holding up a mirror to the experience of what it means to be alive,” Rapp told Playbill’s Raven Brunner earlier this year. “In everyone’s case, at some point or other, you’re going to lose someone very close to you. It’s not just a piece of sorrow. It’s also a piece of joy and love — and connection.”

This marked the first top 10 for both Beck and Depp on the 31-yearold Top Album sales chart. The legendary guitarist found a kindred spirit in the actor-musician when the two met in 2016. They bonded quickly over cars and guitars and spent most of their time together trying to make each other laugh. At the same time, Beck’s appreciation grew for Depp’s serious songwriting skills and his ear for music. That talent and their chemistry convinced Beck they should make an album together. Depp agreed and they started in 2019.

Rock Hall Country Fair

Blakeman reluctantly supports ‘safe zones’

By MICHAEL MALASZCZYK mmalaszczyk@liherald.com

The U.S. Supreme Court has weighed in on a number of controversial topics as of late. But while a lot of attention is paid to the overturn of Roe v. Wade, another salient issue has seemingly been overshadowed: gun rights.

The court ruled last summer to expand access to concealed carry permits in a case originating here in New York, declaring unconstitutional laws they say could impede on Second Amendment rights — like people being required to show proper cause before they could carry a gun in public.

This latest case — New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen — loosened restrictions on concealed carry permits, ruling that both the Second and 14th amendments guarantee the rights to carry firearms publicly.

But Gov. Kathy Hochul and state lawmakers responded to that ruling with new laws requiring permit renewals, firearm safety training courses, and most of all, the creation of “safe zones” — places where firearms are not permitted at all.

Here in Nassau County, Bruce Blakeman says he’ll enforce laws, but only until they are ruled unconstitutional.

“We are very concerned about the restrictions that might make law-abiding citizens who choose to carry into criminals,” the county executive told reporters

Michael Malaszczyk/Herald

NASSAu CouNtY ExECutIvE Bruce Blakeman, flanked by Nassau County Police Department Commissioner Patrick Ryder and Tatum Fox, the deputy county executive, pledged to support New York’s new gun laws while still hoping they are ultimately overturned, during a news conference last week. during a news conference last week.

“You can’t carry in government buildings. You can’t carry in places of worship.

We have churches, synagogues and mosques in Nassau County where lawabiding citizens want guns for their own safety and the safety of their religious institutions.”

Blakeman believes the state’s new laws

won’t stop dangerous individuals from carrying and using illegal guns, but rather will stop ordinary people to legally carry them.

Yet, Blakeman says he’s also not for a completely unrestricted Second Amendment, either.

“We would do background checks, regardless of what the state law requires,”

the Republican said, if such actions were left strictly up to local governments. “We certainly want to see if someone has a propensity for criminality or violence. We would do social media checks as well.”

But not everyone inside the county government agrees with Blakeman’s stance.

County Legislator Kevan Abrahams praised Hochul’s new law, saying it protects anyone who doesn’t want to be near guns in public spaces. The Democrat also believes it makes the job of police easier.

“I don’t think anyone is infringing on anyone’s Second Amendment rights,” the minority caucus leader said. “The Supreme Court just allowed them to enhance those rights. The state law is just saying that there should be safe zones, where I couldn’t imagine why anyone would want to bring a gun unless their goal was to inflict harm.”

Abrahams named churches, malls and parks as places where he couldn’t imagine the need for a gun, and added he trusts law enforcement’s ability to protect the public from danger in those kinds of places.

“Removing safe zones makes the police’s job, which is already one of the toughest jobs in the country, even harder,” Abrahams said. “The safe zone legislation is, to me, just common sense.”

A federal judge last week put a temporary halt on the law — including a part it that would ban weapons in New York City’s Times Square — while legal challenges to that legislation proceed.

Homecoming, college, events, oh my!

Two Hewlett High School students were honored and the audience that gathered at the Hewlett-East Rockaway Jewish Centre heard from author Talia Carner at the National Council of Jewish Women-Peninsula Section event on Sept. 30.

Sophia Gilleeny and Benjamin Tsukerman, serving as student advocates, were recognized for having written letters to elected officials for them to proclaim Oct. 11 the Day of Girl.

Day of the Girl, which is marked across the globe, aims to promote the empowerment of girls everywhere and advocate for them to attain basic rights such as bodily autonomy and education.

Carner spoke about the more than 150,000 Jewish girls who left Europe in the late 19th century and the early 1900s to flee pogroms, poverty and strife, and dreamed of America, but fell to the false promises of marriages and jobs by the Zwi Migdal.

A legal traffickers union, the Zwi Migdal operated with impunity across South America for 70 years and faced the women into prostitution. In her book, “The Third Daughter,” Carner revealed how the Jewish community shunned these women. She also spoke on what could be done today to help abolish modern human enslavement.

Lawrence Lately

No worries for students at ECC Inspired by reading the book “Silly Billy” by Anthony Browner, students at the Lawrence Early Childhood Center created Worry Dolls that originate with artists from Guatemala as they learned about Hispanic culture, history, language and the contributions Hispanic people have made in the United States in celebration of National Hispanic Heritage Month.

“Our young learners had a terrific time learning about Worry Dolls and creating their own. Part of our goal with social-emotional learning at our school is to teach important social skills to develop

our students’ emotional intelligence,” Kathleen Graham, principal of Early Childhood Center and director of Special Programs, said in a news release. “Hispanic Heritage Month is also another great opportunity for our school to affirm and demonstrate our commitment to diversity, inclusion, and equity for all of our students, staff, and community as we are a cultural mosaic here in Lawrence!”

According to legend, the Mayan people believed that when you tell your worries to the doll and place the doll under a pillow at night, in the morning the worries disappear.

After reading “Silly Billy, “ the students were able to better understand the concept of a Worry Doll and their emotional significance. Families were encouraged to speak with their children about what worries them, and who they can speak to when they are feeling worried.

“I am incredibly proud of our young students and to see their interest in learning about the Hispanic culture, David Lichtenstein, an Early Childhood Center art teacher said in the release. “Students are learning and celebrating through a variety of ways including instructional lessons in their classrooms with their teachers about Hispanic individuals who have made an impact on our history.”

ICARE is off to a flying start Established in May and celebrated with an official launch party last month, Episcopal Health Services Inc.’s St. John’s ICARE Foundation has already racked up an impressive resume of accomplishments.

Episcopal Health Services operates St. John’s Episcopal Hospital in Far Rockaway.

ICARE (innovation, compassion, Respect, empathy) raised $20,000 for a new GE Giraffe incubator care station and $20,000 for four GE Billi soft phototherapy systems through the Giving Tuesdays campaigns. The foundation gathered $100,00 for the hospital’s labor and delivery project and $120,000 for equipment at the newly opened Margaret O. Carpenter Women’s Health Center through the golf tournaments.

Through the Covod-19 emergency fun $10,00, in-kind donations of food, personal protective equipment and comfort items were collected for a recharge room for St. John’s health care “heroes.” More than $400,000 in private grant money was obtained to support projects, including Telehealth and the new mobile health unit.

More than 3,000 holiday toys for children, 2,000 school backpacks and more than 1,000 baby bags for new mothers and holiday gifts for over 100 families were distributed through the Adopt-a-Family program.

“The ICARE Foundation will both enhance and focus our fundraising efforts so we can maximize the value of our donations and ensure that we are providing aid and services to those that need it most,” Renee Hastick-Motes, ICARE’s president said in a news release.

A launch party cocktail reception with 200 guests was held at the Rockaway Hotel on Sept. 29 to toast the newly created foundation.

Q. We own an Airbnb upstate, in an area that has septic tanks and, on occasion, limited water supply, especially in a drought, so we turn the faucets off between guests using the place. One of the guests complained that a toilet kept running and that the plumbing made a high-pitched squealing sound. We hear the trickling sound and the squealing in the pipes, but haven’t been able to pinpoint the problem.

A handyman came in and got the squealing to stop by adjusting the water pressure, he said. This worked for a short time, but then another guest complained about the same thing. Before we get another plumber, for the third time, can you explain some reasons for why this is happening? It’s frustrating to hear guests complain or ask for a reduction.

A. The first thing I did after reading your question was to go to my own toilets, open the top and examine the mechanics of the flushing. There are really only a few working parts, and I know from experience, and from talking with plumbers over the years, that the flapper, the rubber stopper that lifts up when you push down on the lever, onte eeper deteriorates over time and must be replaced. The part is usually under $7, so you can get a couple at a time to save a trip.

When the flapper isn’t dropping correctly onto the ring that it seats on, there’s an improper seal, and that’s why you’ll hear the trickling sound. You should empty the tank of water by flushing, enough to expose the flapper and seating ring so you can check the ring. If it has deteriorated, it has to be carefully pried off. If you feel any resistance, call the plumber, because if you use tools the wrong way to remove the ring, you could crack the ceramic tank, and you’ll go from a $20 fix to a toilet replacement costing hundreds of dollars.

The squealing sound is partially explained by water pressure, and also by the type of fill valve, the vertical pipe and float that allows water into the tank. Generally speaking, the fill valve also becomes filled with impurities from everyday use, and the float that rises up as the water rises in the tank can be hindered over time. The parts aren’t expensive to replace, and it’s better to have the fill valve replaced than to take the time to try to clean it, try it out, become frustrated by the squealing sound of the water, under pressure, trying to squeeze up through the restricted fill tube, only to have to start over.

I wonder, though, whether you used the services of a real, licensed plumber, since I’ve never known a plumber who flunked out of potty training, and every plumber I know could have told you right away what the problem was. When in doubt, hire a professional. Good luck!

urricanes are the world’s costliest natural disasters, and they’re intensifying because of climate change. Eighty-five percent of all hurricane damage is caused from Category 3, 4 and 5 storms. A hurricane with 150mph winds has the potential to do 250 times the damage of one with 75-mph winds. As the Earth’s climate warms, there has been a substantial increase in the proportion of Category 4 and 5 storms.

And wind isn’t the only problem.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration projects ALAn that the rainfall these storms prosinGER duce will increase by about 15 percent by the end of the 21st century, leading to more disastrous flooding.

When Hurricane Ian slammed Cuba, it was a Category 3 storm, with top winds of 125 mph. The island’s entire power grid collapsed, leaving people without electricity and trapped in deadly floods. The following day, Ian struck the west coast of Florida with even more destructive force, having picked up strength from warmer ocean water. The Caribbean Sea is now about 1.8

W

degrees Fahrenheit warmer than in the past. On Sept. 28, Ian was a Category 4 storm, with winds reaching 150 mph, just below Category 5. In the past 30 years, only two Category 5 hurricanes had made landfall in the U.S. Meteorologists report that before it hit Cuba, Ian became 67 percent stronger in under 22 hours, and it was further turbocharged as it headed from Cuba to Florida.

It was one of 30 Atlantic tropical storms since 2017 that gained so much destructive power in less than a day.

Climatologists predict that this phenomenon will become more frequent as the oceans and the Earth continue to warm.

According to University of Albany hurricane scientist Kristen Corbosiero, “This season could be a harbinger of sorts of what is to come.” Over the past 10 years, there were about 25 percent more rapidly intensifying storms in the Atlantic and Eastern Pacific than were recorded 40 years ago.

Millions of people were forced to flee from Hurricane Ian, well over 100 people died, and according to a spokeswoman for the Insurance Information Institute, insurance modelers estimate that the damage it inflicted will total between $20 billion and

L

$40 billion.

Even less intense hurricanes have devastating impact. In 2012, Superstorm Sandy left over $50 billion in damage, making it the second-costliest hurricane in U.S. history up to that time. At its peak, Sandy was “only” a Category 3 hurricane, and when it made landfall in New York City, its wind speeds had dropped to tropical storm force. The wind and the rate of rainfall were moderate for a hurricane, but flooding was extensive because a number of factors lined up: the size of the storm, its slow speed, its path from east to west and the fact that it made landfall during a full moon at high tide.

In May 2020, Cyclone Amphan struck India and Bangladesh, forcing the evacuation of over 2 million people. Four months later, the western Ionian Islands of Greece were battered

by Cyclone Ianos, which flooded streets, destroyed crops just before harvest, tore down buildings and caused millions of dollars in damage. Before the 1990s, hurricanelike cyclones in the Mediterranean, known as medicanes, happened rarely, because the climate there is generally dry.

In recent decades, the average speed of Atlantic hurricanes has slowed by more than 15 percent, making them more

ike this one, more storms gather more destructive power in less time.

destructive. In September 2020, Hurricane Sally stalled over the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico, absorbing warm water and gaining strength, and then flooded coastal communities in Florida, Alabama and Mississippi.

In Greek mythology, Cassandra was a priestess who rejected a liaison with the god Apollo and was condemned by him with the gift of true prophecies that no one would ever believe. Explaining the threat of climate change to Republicans like Florida’s Gov. Ron DeSantis is like being cursed with the power of Cassandra.

In a press conference last year, DeSantis dismissed scientific recommendations for addressing climate change as “a bunch of left-wing things” and announced that in Florida “we’re not doing any left-wing stuff.” He warned Floridians that if climate mitigation or adaptation policies were put in place, “gas would be six or seven bucks a gallon,” and his job was to make sure “people are able to have affordable energy.”

There’s no escaping the division, in every arena

hy do you have to make everything a political issue? some readers ask, and then they sign off with, “[Expletive] Biden!” It’s too late for false indignation; everything is political, from the books in our schools to the vaccines we get, from abortion and contraception to who we marry, who we are, what we eat, where we live, whether we worship and how.

MAGA and the extreme right have hyper-politicized American life.

Their movement is fueled by hypocrisy — most recently, when it comes RAnDi to women’s rights, KREiss most particularly women’s reproductive rights.

The GOP led the charge to overturn Roe v. Wade, setting up the end play by recruiting several ultra-conservative justices, named to the Supreme Court by former President Donald Trump.

Most Republicans proudly take responsibility for this new restriction on women’s lives. The story takes a cynical twist, however. In the upcoming election, the GOP is backing former football player Herschel Walker for the Senate in Geor-

gia. Walker was anointed by the former president, and touted a radical anti-abortion position. Then, in an inconvenient turn of events, a woman came forward, saying Walker had paid for her abortion and asked her to get a second one, which she refused to do, according to The New York Times.

Walker disowns the proof, hospital receipts and a personal note allegedly written by him and made public by the former girlfriend.

I wouldn’t spend the ink on this except for the galling hypocrisy. How does Walker, a clearly unqualified candidate who is morally challenged and intellectually naïve, still enjoy the support of most Republicans? They say one thing and they do another. They pose as righteous, but they put forward candidates like Reps. Marjorie Taylor Green, Lauren Boebert and Matt Gaetz, extremists who pander to racists and antisemites.

The GOP embraces life except when it comes to supporting the lives of single mothers or early-childhood programs or many of the other social welfare initiatives that give people a helping hand. That is the living, breathing definition of hypocrisy.

The worship of the former president

H

is, we know, a kind of psychological contagion. The self-appointed morality police in the mostly far-right GOP are actively supporting a corrupt, misogynistic man who should have been barred from public office years ago. Like you, I heard him on tape in 2016 saying he could grab a woman’s private parts because he was a celebrity. That was enough for me; the mystery is why the hypocrites are sticking around for a second act.

We are in October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

That is a women’s issue, too.

Every year, some 264,000 cases of breast cancer are diagnosed in the United States. The political piece is the laws deciding who gets access to screening and the best therapies.

In 2019, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 625,346 abortions were performed in U.S., meaning that more than twice as many women who get breast cancer will seek an abortion. Both breast cancer and abortions are significant health issues in women’s lives, and are best viewed through the lens of what is healthiest for the women. The deciders should be the women and their doctors, not politicians.

As president, Trump turned out to be

ow does Herschel Walker still enjoy the support of most Republicans?

worse than we feared, an unprepared and erratic man who undermined our peace of mind and peace in the world. He triggered a political lurch to the extreme right. At one point he threatened to defund Planned Parenthood, which, among its services, offers basic breast cancer screenings. He launched a renewed attack on women’s reproductive rights.

We live now in a political environment that feels increasingly hostile to me as an American woman. Breast cancer is, almost exclusively, a woman’s disease. It affects our morale, our confidence and our appearance. It brings us face to face with our own mortality.

Abortions are, exclusively, performed on women.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month is a good time to renew the fight for women’s rights, and access to decent health screenings and care.

People ask why get political, but politics has already saturated the fabric of our lives. Women’s rights have been politicized, not by women but by morality police who want to tell them who to be and how to be and if or when to have children. In the Herschel Walker case, the extremists are keeping two sets of rules, one for Walker and one for everyone else.

Churches need to see more of the faithful

n the days of ancient Rome, philosopher Seneca the Younger said that “every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end.” And that’s exactly what Valley Stream Presbyterian Church is facing as it says goodbye to its longtime pastor, the Rev. Kymberley Clemons-Jones.

It’s not that it’s simply a time to move on for the good pastor. Instead, she feels she has no other choice.

“My salary, you know, is a hit to the congregation,” Clemons-Jones said.

“It’s just something that we have to worry about every two weeks.”

Eliminating her salary would give the South Central Avenue church a little room to breathe financially, but it also means losing a pastor who, over the course of nearly 15 years, increased the size of the congregation four times over.

Yet, the Presbyterian church’s woes are hardly unique. While Covid-19 has exacerbated a lot of these issues, religious institutions have been under significant financial strain in recent years.

Churches and synagogues have been sold, congregations scattered or merged with other communities, staff cut.

While there are a number of factors involved in all of this, the one that stands out the most is also the one that

might be the hardest to fix: Many just aren’t joining their faithful brethren seeking to visit houses of worship.

Last year, for the first time in its 80-year history, Gallup found that more people didn’t belong to a church, synagogue or mosque than did. Just 47 percent of those polled frequented a religious institution in 2020, according to researchers, compared with 50 percent in 2018 and a whopping 70 percent in 1999 — a number that had remained mostly consistent since 1937.

Church membership has dropped because the number of people expressing no religious preference has been on the rise, Gallup found. The portion of Americans who didn’t identify with any specific religion grew from 8 percent in the late 1990s to 1 in 5 today.

Yet waning faith isn’t the only culprit here. That same Gallup poll also revealed a significant drop in church membership even among those who did identify with a faith. Between 1998 and 2000, three-quarters of religious Americans belonged to a church, synagogue or mosque. In the years leading up to the pandemic, that number had fallen to 60 percent.

That ultimately leaves churches like Valley Stream Presbyterian in the

lurch.

“People are still afraid to come out,” Clemons-Jones said. “Our tithes and offerings have taken such a huge hit.”

Valley Stream Presbyterian has served parishioners for nearly a century. Church leaders are scrambling to make the transition from having a pastor to not having one as smooth as possible, but it won’t be easy. While religious institutions offer their communities a range of services and activities — from youth outreach to food pantries to other charitable work — the spiritual leader still remains the central focus of each of them. Without that leader, an already struggling institution inches that much closer to non-existence.

The beauty of America is that it’s a country where all of us are free to believe, or not believe, what we want.

But for those who do still believe — a segment of our population that is still in the majority — let’s not forget the very institutions that are the bedrock of our faith.

Valley Stream Presbyterian may very well pull through this, just as it has past challenges. So many houses of worship aren’t so fortunate, yet we can create a new beginning from some other beginning’s end simply by showing up.

letters Stop blaming Columbus To the Editor: Democratic socialist Assemblywoman Marcela Mitaynes has introduced legislation to abolish Columbus Day. The famed Italian explorer has been honored for centuries, like many other 15th and 16th century explorers, for his brilliant navigational skills and bravery in helping Spain’s colonization of the Americas.

Now, centuries later, Columbus has become the target of leftist revisionist historians judging his actions by 21st century morals and values.

Mitaynes’s family originates from Peru, home of the Shining Path, and her major endorsements come from the Democratic Socialists of America and the leftist Working Families Party. So we should not be shocked that she and her fellow leftists always seem to focus their attacks mostly on Anglo-Euro people when it comes to the colonization of the New World. Their bias and prejudice are more than obvious in the targets they choose.

They intentionally attempt to erase the historical fact that it was the Catholic Spanish crown that destroyed the Maya, Aztec and Inca civilizations in the early 16th century. That it was they who mur-

dered, tortured, enslaved and decimated the indigenous populations. It was Spain that officially introduced the African slave trade in South America.

The biggest mass murders of that time were not Christopher Columbus, but the conquista-

dors, Cortez, Pizarro, Alvarado, Balboa and several others.

Time to separate fact from hateful propaganda as concerns history.

ith the Jewish High Holy Days and Yom Kippur behind us, we in the Jewish community look forward to all that is to come in the new year, 5783 on the Hebrew calendar.

The Jewish people look to Israel and all the wonderful events, like the Abraham Accords, widening Israel’s circle of peace and the innumerable contributions Israel has made to the world. We also acknowledge the contributions of American Jewry to our wonderful country and the eriC place we have in the tapestry of post America’s multicultural landscape.

However, we cannot ignore the problem of antisemitism and all forms of hate in America. Hate crimes have skyrocketed for many of America’s diverse communities. Barely a week goes by when there isn’t a violent attack on an identifiably Jewish resident in Brooklyn.

The Asian-American community has

experienced a similar disturbing phenomenon.

On Long Island, for the most part, we have been spared a large uptick in hate, but there have been a number of disturbing incidents. Nazi swastikas and other symbols of hate continue to appear in public spaces from time to time. While these actions cannot be minimized and cause real harm to the Jewish community and all those of good will, it is often the work of adolescents who want to do something mischievous, but have no clue about the hate these symbols represent. Thankfully, these children can be educated, and are not inculcated to hate.

We have seen the Proud Boys, a farright, neo-fascist group that spews hatred and advocates violence toward many minority communities, brazenly march in several towns. We saw antisemitic flyer drops by the so-called Goyim Defense League this summer in several Nassau County communities. One person, under the cover of night, drove around the South Shore, leaving antisemitic leaflets

o

espousing the notoriously antisemitic libel of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, and suggesting antisemitic tropes about Jewish power and control.

We are thankful that elected officials and community stakeholders have come together to denounce these acts as unacceptable and antithetical to the values of our counties and towns, and that law enforcement agencies are doing everything they can to protect Long Island’s Jewish community.

In addition to remaining steadfast in denouncing these acts, Nassau and Suffolk County and 10 towns and villages have adopted the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance Working Definition of Antisemitism. It is widely acknowledged as the authoritative definition by the U.S. government, most states, including New York, and dozens of countries. The definition is a non-legally binding tool to identify antisemitism, whether in its traditional forms, or the new antisemitism, which demonizes and attempts to delegitimize the State of Israel or holds Israel to double standards to

n Long Island, no surge in hate, but several disturbing incidents.

Letters One-seat rides?

Not for everyone.

To the Editor: Long Island Rail Road President Catherine Renaldi reminded me of Pinocchio when she said, “Fans who live east of Belmont now have a one-seat ride to attend Islanders and other events at the UBS Arena,” at the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the opening of the westbound platform at the new Elmont UBS Arena station on Oct. 6.

That may be true for Oyster Bay, Port Jefferson, Huntington and Ronkonkoma branch riders, but it does not apply to Babylon, Speonk, West Hempstead, Long Beach and Far Rockaway branch riders. They will have to change at Jamaica before doubling back east to reach the UBS Arena. Port Washington branch riders have an additional Woodside transfer.

Renaldi neglected to mention that the source of funding for the station is the Empire State Development Corporation, which transferred $105 million from its budget to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. That financed the new Elmont station. The developers put in $30 million up front, and the state, $75 million. The developers will make payments, without interest, to reimburse the state over the next 30 years. They end up with an interest-free loan. So much for truth in advertising!

which other countries are not held. We encourage other towns to follow suit.

Twenty-two Long Island municipal leaders have also signed on to the American Jewish Committee’s Mayors United Against Antisemitism Campaign, along with over 700 leaders nationwide, in a partnership with the U.S. Conference of Mayors. This campaign is a pledge to identify and properly deal with antisemitism if it appears in a municipal leader’s jurisdiction.

So, yes, at this holy time of year, the Jewish community acknowledges the wonderful freedoms America has afforded us. Many American Jews will agree that, to date, there has been no better place and time to live as a Jew than in America right now. But this is a tenuous statement, one that relies on every elected official, religious leader, community leader and resident to stand up to antisemitism and all forms of hate.

We wish those who celebrate a Happy New Year, and we thank all our non-Jewish neighbors for your friendship and everything you have done and will do to make sure Long Island remains a place for all to worship and live in harmony.

For Randi, is even the Holocaust political?

To the Editor: I read Randi Kreiss’s column “When Nazis killed 6 million, where was America?” (Sept.

29-Oct. 5), on Ken Burns’s documentary “The U.S. and the Holocaust,” and I look forward to watching it. But I find it amazing that even when covering a historical topic from the 1940s, Ms. Kreiss cannot resist making it political and taking a cheap shot at Republicans and former President Trump.

If she really wants to experience prejudice in 2022, I challenge her to don a red Make America Great Again hat and attempt to walk on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, in SoHo, Greenwich Village or basically anywhere in New York City. She should let us know how far she gets before being confronted and assaulted by those she puts on a pedestal.

“Ignorance and fear create the gods, enthusiasm and deceit adorn them, and human weakness worships them,” the British novelist Graham McNeill wrote. Ms. Kreiss is worshipping false gods, and should be seeing someone about her severe case of Trump derangement syndrome.
