A race like no other in O.B. By LAURA LANE llane@liherald.com

Courtesy John Quirk

DANIELLE TAYLOR, LEFT, Cheryl Lordi, Liam Gagliano and John Quirk took part in the 4x4x48 challenge in Oyster Bay on March 5.

Danielle Taylor was sleepdeprived, and the muscles in her legs were tightening, causing excruciating pain at 1:30 a.m. on Sunday, the final day of the race. She knew she had less than three hours before the next leg of the race, one that she had been running since Friday night. But the Oyster Bay resident wanted to finish the 48- mile race, and she had to complete it in 48 hours. So she filled up her bathtub with warm water and Epsom salt and submerged herself until the pain partially dissipated. She couldn’t stay in there too long, because she had to eat and sleep too. At 3 a.m. she would be running the

course again. The 4x4x48 challenge involves running four miles every four hours for 48 hours. That’s four miles 12 times. It is broken down into 12 four-hour legs. The race was created in 2020 by former Navy SEAL David Goggins, an ultramarathon runner and triathlete, to raise money for charities. It begins on March 5, and can be run anywhere in the world. This year, 10 Oyster Bay residents took part. John Quirk, 54, organized the local 4x4x48 challenge, with a course from Beekman Beach to the Bayville Bridge. Quirk oversees the Oyster Bay Turkey Trot, a 5K Thanksgiving family fun run that raises money each year for local nonCONTINUED ON PAGE 2

Through the looking glass: the ’60s in poster art By GEORGE WALLACE newsroom@liherald.com

What do you do when you’re closing down an office where the walls are filled with psychedelic posters you started collecting as a college kid in the 1960s? Realizing that those posters, promoting local rock concerts back then, are considered works of art today, Ted Bahr opened an art gallery in Oyster Bay in 2018 to display them. The Bahr Gallery’s new exhibition, “Travelogue,” showcases the artistry of day-glo colors, psychedelic typographic distortions and other techniques that

those posters were known for. The show, which opened on March 19 to Covid-limited access, explores the regional differences in poster-making in the late ’60s, a genre that is typified by the iconic work produced in San Francisco for the Fillmore West and other concert halls. Grouped thematically on the gallery walls are first-edition vintage creations, handsomely framed and enthusiastically explicated, from Manhattan, Boston, Detroit, Los Angeles and Austin, Texas, among other locales. Bahr’s interest in music posters dates back decades. “In col-

he poster era began in 1969, but by 1971 the promoters didn’t use posters because it was too inefficient.

TED BAHR

Owner, Bahr Gallery lege I collected a little bit, attracted to the bright, psychedelic look and its association not

only with the great music being made, but also with the utopian ideal of peace that was represented,” recalled Bahr, 62, a former owner of a publishing company who moved to Laurel Hollow in 1998. Originally from Westchester County, he spent 15 years in the San Francisco Bay area. “Eventually I had about 45

pieces. I treated them as fine art, hung them in various areas around the office” — BZ Media in Melville — “and wrote placards with explanations of the work. I treated my office almost as a museum.” Bahr sold BZ Media in 2017. “I had 45 framed posters and CONTINUED ON PAGE 3

Covid cancelled it. He’s Quirk’s neighbor, and agreed to join him in the race. “I had run a couple miles the week before the challenge because when Ironman was canceled, I hit a training slump,” said Gagliano, a 2013 Oyster Bay High graduate. “I’m a goal-oriented person, and like challenges.” He said he started cramping at first. “Waking at 2:30 a.m., your legs get going again, and your body takes over and so does your mind,” Gagliano said. “Mine said, ‘OK we’re doing this again.’ The motivator was to finish. Anyone who wants a challenge should do this.” He prepared the day before, consuming electrolytes. One issue Gagliano said he didn’t take into consideration was how much running clothing he would go through. He had to launder some during the four-hour breaks, when all he wanted to do was sleep. It was also hard to consume the needed nutrients. “My body was craving sleep and water,” he said. “John reminded me that I had to drink electrolytes, and he was right. That gave me a second wind

halfway through.” Justin Nakrin, 29, also of Oyster Bay, is a distance runner who competed at Oyster Bay High before graduating in 2009. He said he didn’t have much time to train for the 4x4x48. “I heard about the race in the Herald and thought it sounded fun,” Nakrin said. “Running has always been a great passion. In all my years of running, the 4x4 is the most challenging thing I’ve ever done. My mind and body have never been pushed that far.” Nakrin, like Taylor, said that the lack of sleep and recovery time raised the stakes. But he had an additional challenge the others didn’t have. “At the end of each leg, I always had to climb up a steep hill to get to my house,” he said. “That was hard.” The snow flurries that fell early Saturday morning, the second day of the race, weren’t a welcome sight. “It’s harder to breath in cold weather,” Nakrin said. “I was able to do it, but it was definitely challenging.” Gagliano said that he didn’t think he would be able to finish the event, adding that he was proud of his accomplishment. “Doing this was really cool,” he said. Finishing the 4x4x48 filled Nakrin with pride, too. “I felt that completing this I completed something personal,” he said. “If a Navy SEAL can do it and I was able to do it, I pushed myself to finish.” To donate to the Oyster Bay 4x4x48, go t o h t t p s : / / eve n t s. e l i t e f e a t s. c o m / 4448pledge.

profits. He was disheartened when he realized that 40 percent fewer people participated in last year’s Turkey Trot race, due to Covid-19. The trot, which garnered $4,500, was short from 2019, when it raised $9,500. The nonprofits received less this year, but Quirk said he also worries about the sustainability of area restaurants, especially since some have closed amid the pandemic. Seeing an Instagram post from Goggins, he arranged for the event to be run in Oyster Bay to help local food pantries and restaurants. Ten people participated, and four completed the challenge. They raised roughly $3,000. Quirk, a runner, said that taking part in the challenge changed him. “It made me in my mind believe I could accomplish anything,” he said. “It pushed me mentally and physically.” Taylor, 48, who completed the Long Island Marathon in 2019, said she found the 4x4x48 difficult to complete. But her son Andrew, 12, who runs for USA Track & Field and is on the Oyster Bay High School cross-country team, promised to run the second-to-last leg with her. That inspired Taylor to keep running, she said, as did the support from the community. “There were people who ran a leg with us, and so many people cheering us on,” she said. “At the last leg there was even a drive-by, where people cheered for us, and

The Bahr Gallery features rock ’n’ roll posters nowhere to put them,” he said. “My wife said, ‘Maybe you should sell the posters,’ and I didn’t know whether she meant go into the business or get rid of them. I figured for the baby boomers having reached the age when it’s basically ‘me time,’ maybe I could make a business of it.” So he opened a gallery in Oyster Bay, and, three years later, is on what he calls a mission to share posters carefully stored in boxes, under beds or in portfolios. He envisions himself as an “agent” committed to having concert art seen by the world. “I’ve known Ted since high school, but my interest in these posters comes from my love of music,” said Brendan McCurdy, a banker and a “chieftain” at the annual Bradstock music festival in Center Moriches. “We know the ’60s were an incredible caldron of music, art and writing, so much that opened up the doors of perception. And Ted is just an encyclopedia behind what’s on his walls.” David Chalif, who met Bahr soon after he opened the gallery on Audrey Avenue, said, “Ted is extremely knowledgeable, including the process, the artists and the genre’s place in art history — poster art that goes back to France in the 1890s, and Photos courtesy Bahr Gallery artists from that time whose work was an POSTERS FROM MANHATTAN, Boston and even Texas are included in the exhibit. inspiration for these posters. He’s assembled a world-class collection, from 1956 on, first editions, mainly from the Bay area, but now we see representations from other parts of the country.” Unlike the posters of 1890s Paris, which were typically pasted on the sides of kiosks, in ’60s San Francisco, some posters were stapled to telephone poles, and others were given to record and book stores to be displayed in their windows. “Eventually they were handed out at a show, as an announcement for the next show,” Bahr explained. “At Bill Graham’s Fillmore West, for instance, the incentive [at closing time] was that the first 500 people who left the building got a poster.” Another San Franciscan, Ben Friedman, owned a head shop and saw the posters’ marketing potential. He went to Graham looking for overruns, offered him 50 cents apiece and brought home as many AN ICONIC POSTER, “Jimi Hendrix, as 500 to 1,000 to sell. “The posters were Beethoven,” by John Van Hammersveld, is popular, and he struck deals with most of included in the Bahr Gallery’s new exhibit. the major rock promoters in the city,” Bahr said. “That’s why we have a pretty still reflecting some of the Bay area artists’ large body that still exist today and are in psychedelic sensibilities.

North Shore residents respond to Chauvin verdict BY JENNIFER CORR jcorr@liherald.com

Last year, Americans experienced an array of emotions — sadness, outrage and horror, as they watched footage of former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin kneel on George Floyd’s neck for nine minutes and 29 seconds, well past the moment he had stopped breathing. After a year of widespread protests and promises of police reform, Chauvin was found guilty on Tuesday of all counts — second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. He will be sentenced in eight weeks. “I think it is not a celebration as much as we want to enjoy the moment,” said Ravin Chetram, activist and vice president of the Oyster Bay-East Norwich Chamber of Commerce. “It’s a time for awareness. A time for hope. A time for change, real change.” Hope Taglich, who is from Oyster Bay but currently lives in CHIEF WILLIAM Maryland, said that she too was WHITTON “thrilled” about the verdict. “But I think it’s alarming that Glen Cove Police we’re celebrating over a rare Department instance of justice, or accountability being delivered,” she said. “We’re so unused to the idea that a police officer could be held accountable for killing a civilian, that when one is, it is a cause of celebration.” Both Chetram and Taglich hosted and participated in Black Lives Matter rallies and protests in the hamlet throughout the spring and summer last year. And while they said they were now able to see accountability in the murder of George Floyd almost a year later, there are still families who have not seen that for their loved ones. “Breonna [Taylor], Elijah [McClain], Rayshard [Brooks],” Chetram said. “We do not want this to be a token given out to see all future cases thrown out.” Rev. Roger Williams, of First Baptist Church of Glen Cove, said he was nervous about the verdict , saying that police officers have not been convicted for killing Black and Brown civilians, like 12-year-old Tamir Rice, who was killed in Cleveland in 2014 by a police officer for holding a toy gun. “I was thinking about how these unarmed [people] were greatly injured and even lost their lives at the hands of police officers and how those officers were able to walk away, to be acquitted,” said Williams, who is leading the local African American Commission on Social Justice. “I

What they saw, they saw.” When Williams learned that the jury had deliberated for 10 hours before making a decision, he began to feel a sense of hope that they had found Chauvin guilty. Williams and his 17-year-old son watched on television, as Judge Peter Cahill of the Hennepin County District Court read the verdict. “I was relieved,” Williams said. “My son saw that as a young Black man, that the systems of justice, the authority that the police department has, can and have the capability to side with what is right.” If the courts and police abuse people without consequence, Williams added, young people will not have any respect for them moving forward. He stressed that he and other activists in Glen Cove are not anti-police. “Derek Chauvin was not a police officer,” Williams said. “He was not a police officer in the sense that he did not . . .

Thankfully for the community, they have closure and they saw justice be served.” Glen Cove activist Antwan Brown took part in a Black Lives Matter march across Glen Cove and Sea Cliff and joined a town hall over the summer with Williams, Whitton, Mayor Tim Tenke and other local leaders. Brown said that after the verdict, multiple people reached out to him to say that he had made a difference. “I was just a small part of a huge push for justice for my people,” said Brown, adding that he received push back from some members of the community for his advocacy. But despite this, he said, he is undeterred, and will continue to fight for change.

DOZENS GATHERED IN Locust Valley for the ceremony. Locust Valley Fire Department reflected on Hendriks’ life and paid tribute to his patriotism, valor and courageous service. Saturday morning’s ceremony included a memorial rifle salute by American Legion Post 962; and a prayer led by Rev. Dom Elias Carr from the Church of Saint Rocco in Glen Cove. The Marine Color Guard was provided by the Garden City-

based 2nd Battalion, 25th Marines Reserve Infantry Battalion, with whom Hendriks served after enlisting in 2012. Among the many lessons Hendriks imparted through his example, Lafazan said, is the importance of committing to the cause which we most believe in. “I have a picture of Sgt.

it, his shirt reads ‘All it takes is all you got.’ Every time someone drives down this street, they'll be reminded of Sgt. Hendriks and those words,” Lafazan said. Born on March 4, 1994 at Booth Memorial Hospital in Queens, Hendriks lived in Glen Cove until his family moved to Locust Valley in 1996. Soon after graduating Locust Valley High School in 2012, Hendriks enlisted in the U.S. Marines’ 2nd Battalion, 25th Marines reserve Infantry battalion; younger brother Joseph followed his example and enlisted in the Marines as well in 2013. Robert also established his professional roots on Long Island as a member of the Local 731 Construction Laborers Union, where he quickly became a shop steward. In May 2018, Robert rose to the opportunity to serve overseas in Afghanistan, where the infantryman was a turret gunner perched atop an armored, mine-resistant vehicle. On April 8, 2019, Hendriks, Hines and Slutman were killed in action near the Bagram airfield in Afghanistan. A car, filled with hundreds of pounds of explosives, drove out from behind a berm and ambushed their convoy as it returned from a mission outside of the base. “The pain in my heart will always be the same, but the journey changes,” Felicia said. “Part of my journey now has become to honor my son and all those who have given their lives for others - for we are their voice now.”

OYSTER BAY HERALD — April 23, 2021

The legacy and service of United States Marine Corps Sgt. Robert A. Hendriks, who was killed in Afghanistan on April 8, 2019 while serving his nation, has been enshrined in the streets of his boyhood hometown of Locust Valley. Nassau County Legislator Joshua Lafazan joined Hendriks’ family, friends and the Locust Valley community on Saturday, April 17, to ceremonially rename Forest Avenue between Birch Hill Road and Birch Street in Locust Valley “Sgt. Robert A. Hendriks Way.” At the heart of the ceremony were Hendriks’ family and closest friends. Christopher Tasso, Hendriks’ best friend from Locust Valley; Sgt. Valiant Bradley Cocchi, with whom Hendriks served in Afghanistan; and members of Hendriks’ family shared poignant stories and memories that captured the “never give up, never quit” spirit that defined his life. “The street renaming is an incredible way to honor Robby and assure his name will live on forever," Hendriks’ mother, Felicia, said. “Although only Robby’s name appears on the sign, remember he died that day with two other Marines: Staff Sgt. Christopher Slutman and Staff Sgt. Benjamin Hines. Never forget these heroes and the loss to their families – and never forget our Robby – our hero, my son, Sgt. Robert Andrew Hendriks.” More than a dozen elected officials, commanders of veterans’ organizations, educational entities and leaders of the

ith more than 70 parks and recreation facilities, Nassau County is literally full of places to play. Many of these parks have pools — both indoor and outdoor —great playgrounds (and winter skating — but no need to think about that now). Others offer some of Long Island's most unique opportunities for recreation. From a recreation of a 19th-century village to an aerodrome field to castle-like mansions, Nassau County has plenty to offer. Hiking and biking trails, swimming pools, and outdoor adventures can be had all across the county. Here’s a selection to get you started on your family adventure.

After touring the museum, visitors can amble out back, enjoy a picnic, identify butterflies in the colorful garden, then head down to the beach. A short but steep woodland path takes you to the rocky shore of Long Island Sound. The museum hosted workshops and events all year long, prior to the pandemic, and is expected to resume when it is safe to do so.

How will the camp help children follow coronavirus safety rules? Camps should have age-appropriate ways to help children practice hand hygiene, stay a safe distance from others, and wear face masks whenever possible and practical. This can be a challenge, especially for younger campers, so they will need a lot of reminders.

Are there extra safety steps taken for sports camps? In addition to the general safety steps for overnight and day camps, sports camps should follow safety guidance for drills, practices and competitions. This includes local and state rules, If you’re sending your child out of state, which can vary widely.

ummer camps can be a chance for children and teens to make friends, learn new skills, and spend time outdoors. Kids have missed out on a lot of these opportunities during the pandemic. You may be looking for a camp where your child can relax and reconnect, but worried since Covid-19 continues to be a concern. More than a year into the pandemic, studies show that camps with proper safety steps in place can greatly limit the spread of Covid-19 infections. Key steps include mask wearing, physical distancing, having smaller groups, and cleaning and disinfecting as part of the daily routine. If you're considering camp for your child this summer, whether it's a just during the day or an overnight program, start by addressing these questions.

Will most activities be indoors or outside? Having activities outdoors, with more fresh air and room to spread out, can lower the risk of spreading Covid-19. Being outside also gives children a way to connect with nature, which can boost their health and mental health after a long, stressful year. However, even outside, it is important to avoid sharing germs. Camps should limit shared equipment for games and activities and clean them often.

What happens if someone gets sick? Camps should have plan for what to do if a camper or staff member starts having symptoms of Covid-19, or any other illness. This should be based on local/state public health guidelines and policies about how to respond and report suspected Covid-19 cases. They should provide clear information to staff, campers and their families on when and how long to stay home if they get sick or have close contact with some who has Covid-19. Is camp staff trained on the specific health needs of children? Children attending camp may be afraid of being away from home and gathering face-

to-face with others after a lengthy time at home. The camp’s health providers should have specialized training in children's health and emotional well-being. Counselors should also have training available to help children cope with stress they may be experiencing. What kind of support is available for campers with special health care needs? Camp directors should aim to meet the needs of all children. Some children with special health care needs or disabilities may need special accommodations so they can enjoy camp while being protected against Covid-19. If your child has special health care needs, talk with camp directors and your pediatrician to identify what specific accommodations your child may need. Existing plans, such as Individualized Family Service Plans and Individual Education Plans, can be helpful. How will campers move throughout the day at camp? According to the CDC, small groups of campers with dedicated staff, when possible, will help minimize Covid-19 risk. Staggered arrival and drop-off times may also help limit contact between groups. How will snacks and meals work? It may be safest for campers bring their own meals, if possible, and eat in separate areas or with their smaller group. This would be less risky than dining halls or cafeterias. Ideally, children should bring their own water bottles rather than drinking from water fountains. What extra steps are being taken at overnight camps? When looking at overnight camps, ask if children will bunk with their daytime groups and how sleeping areas will be arranged. Lining up mats or beds so that campers and staff sleep head-to-toe at least six feet apart can help limit risk, Should my child be tested for Covid-19 before or during camp? A diagnostic Covid-19 test can be useful when a camper or a staff member had a known exposure, or is showing coronavirus symptoms. In these cases, test results can help guide decisions such as who can return to camp safely, when to notify families whose children may have been exposed, or whether the camp should be closed. However, antibody blood tests should not be used in decisions about going to camp. These tests only show if someone had the virus at one point in time. They can't identify someone who still has an active infection without symptoms, for example. n Above photo: A time-honored tradition, camps are eager to welcome campers once again this summer.

Summer isn’t cancelled

Make it visual Kids who thrive on predictability and are prone to panic over transitions —including those on the autism spectrum — benefit

from posted schedules that outline what will happen throughout the day. Make plans Try to schedule as many activities as possible that work for your family, as early as possible, and keep your kids posted. This can mean anything from “we’re going to Aunt Mary’s on Thursday for a barbecue” to having a set routine that every day, weather permitting, you’ll be going to the playground or pool. Even one such activity can give kids a center of gravity, so to speak, around which the rest of the day can be structured. Get outdoors Home has become a safe cocoon during the pandemic, but no child should spend hours in front of a screen. If camp or a local summer program isn’t in the cards, try to find something your child enjoys — riding a bike or scooter, or splashing at the pool, water park, or beach — and do it. Plus, physical activity is good for everyone’s mind, body and spirit, especially those kids with energy to burn. Maintain a behavioral system Children and teens, especially, may act like they want to be in charge, but the truth is they feel safer knowing exactly what you expect of them and the rewards that result from good behavior. This is never truer than during the seemingly boundless — and boundary-free — summer break. n

or many of us, the memories of summer camp stick with us forever. They're triggered and brought to mind by the smell of a campfire, the sight of a canoe in the water or simply a cheeky song that we remember belting out with our summer friends. 2020 put a hold on the making of those memories, but as things come back to the table of opportunity, many summer programs are working diligently to create a safe space for our kids to begin to get back to the business of making memories. Whether you’re ready to register, or prefer to create your own summer memories with your children, find an option that makes you comfortable. As the end of a pandemic school year approaches, the idea of summer break may cause some stress for parents, not quite sure of what to expect or how to prepare for a happy, safe summer. While your child may be thrilled by the end of the school year, anticipating lazy days and sleeping in, the prospect of summer break isn’t quite that unalloyed pleasure for parents. And if you have a child with emotional or developmental issues who is challenging in the best of times, nothing calls on whatever extra powers you might possess more than the long break that lies ahead.

Country star Eric Church coming to UBS Arena By Melissa Koenig mkoenig@liherald.com

Country music star Eric Church will be the first performer at the new UBS Arena at Belmont Park, with a concert on Dec. 4 as part of his “The Gather Again Tour.” The reigning Country Music Awards Entertainer of the Year and current American Country Music Entertainer of the Year nominee has become a leader in the music industry’s return to touring, and plans to adopt an in-the-round setup at his concerts, with the stage in the center of the arena floor in order to accommodate as many fans as possible. He has also become an outspoken advocate for the Covid19 vaccine, and plans to appear in an upcoming public service announcement promoting vaccine education, produced by ACM Lifting Lives, the Ad Council and Covid Collaborative. The ad was to air during the ACM Music Awards show on April 18, when Church was to debut a song off his “Heart & Soul” triple album project. The trio of albums will be released in the coming weeks, with “Heart” available everywhere on April 16, “Soul” available everywhere April 23, and the middle album, “&” available exclusively to the Church Choir

on April 20. Tickets to his concert at the UBS Arena will go on sale to the general public on May 7 at 10 a.m. at www.EricChurch.com. Church Choir members may access tickets early via pre-sale on May 4 at 10 a.m. A team of health professionals and engineers has spent the last year reviewing more than 250 strategies to keep patrons safe at the new US Arena when it opens in the fall, and officials are now ready to demonstrate some of the protocols they will have in place at the arena by welcoming sponsors, clients and sales prospects back to their Preview Club in Manhattan, while also working to attain GBAC STAR Facility Accreditation for the arena from the Global Biorisk Advisory Council. The building is already codecompliant, according to Ed Bosco, managing principal for New York-based ME Engineers, and will feature a new ventilation system and operations designed to limit physical interactions. Parking payments an be made over the phone at the new arena, which will also have contactless grab-and-go food and mobile ordering.

U.S. representatives form SALT Caucus Two Long Island congressmen — Tom Suozzi, a Democrat from the North Shore, and Andrew Gabarino, a recently elected Republican from the tom suozzi South Shore — are two of four co-chairs of the newly formed SALT Caucus, a bipartisan coalition of representatives seeking to restore the federal income tax deduction for state and local taxes. The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, passed under then President Trump, limited the deduction to $10,000, whereas it was previously unlimited, costing many taxpayers in hightax states like New York and California thousands of dollars each. “The SALT cap penalizes working-class Long Islanders,” Garbarino said. “From firefighters to police

officers, to teachers, to nurses, and small business owners, I hear from people every day about what a crushing blow the SALT cap andrew garbarino has delivered them.” “Our ef fort to restore the SALT deduction is gaining momentum,” Suozzi said. “Together, Democrats and Republicans alike, we will advocate for the restoration of the SALT deduction and highlight the middle-class families who have been unfairly hurt by the cap.” In addition to Suozzi and Garbarino, the SALT caucus leadership comprises Co-chair Josh Gottheimer, a Democrat from New Jersey, and Co-chair Young Kim, a Republican from California.

Senators secure $1.5M for Holocaust survivor services A record $1.5 million in state funds has been set aside for the Holocaust Survivors Inititative, announced State Sens. Todd K a m i n s k y, Diane Savino and Anna todd Kaminsky K a p l a n , wh o helped secure the funding. Funds from the Holocaust Survivors Initiative are used to support case management for mental health services, trauma-informed care, crisis prevention, legal services, entitlement counseling, emergency financial assistance, socialization programs, and training for caregivers and home health aides working with survivors, as well as endof-life care. “It is imperative that we look after our community’s Holocaust survivors and ensure that they can live out their lives with dignity,” Kaminsky said.

“After all they h ave e x p e r i enced — and following a year of isolation during the pandemic — that is the least we can do for them.” Kaplan said, “We can never anna Kaplan forget the atrocities of the Holocaust, and we can never forget the Holocaust survivors who endured unthinkable tragedy in their younger years.” Cathy Byrne, a registered nurse and gerontologist who is associate executive director of the Mario and Aaron Gural JCC in Cedarhurst, said, “Thank you for securing these critical funds and never forgetting this precious population that bore witness to the most horrific atrocities against mankind and humanity.

rior tax liens of sovereignties and other municipalities and to all claims of record which the County may have thereon and subject to the provisions of the Federal and State Soldier’s and Sailors’ Civil Relief Acts.

The County Treasurer reserves the right, without further notice and at any time, to withdraw from sale any of the parcels of land or premises herein listed. The rate of interest and penalty which any person purchases the tax lien shall be established by his bid. Each purchaser, immediately after the sale thereof, shall pay to the County Treasurer ten percent of the amount from which the tax liens have been sold and the remaining ninety percent within thirty days after such sale. If the purchaser at the tax sale shall fail to pay the remaining ninety percent within ten days after he has been notified by the County Treasurer that the certificates of sale are ready for delivery, then all deposited with the County Treasurer including but not limited to the ten percent theretofore paid by him shall, without further notice or demand, be irrevocably forfeited by the purchaser and shall be retained by the County Treasurer as liquidated damages and the agreement to purchase be of no further effect.

Ensuring health safety at the new UBS Arena By MELISSA KOENIG mkoenig@liherald.com

A team of health professionals and engineers have spent the last year reviewing more than 250 strategies to keep patrons safe at the new US Arena when it opens in the fall, and are now ready to demonstrate some of the protocols they will have in place at the arena by welcoming sponsors, clients and sales prospects back to their Preview Club in Manhattan, while also working to attain GBAC STAR Facility Accreditation for the arena from the Global Biorisk Advisory Council. The building is already code-compliant, according to Ed Bosco, managing principal for New York-based ME Engineers, and will feature a new ventilation system and operations designed to limit physical interactions. Parking payments could be made over the phone at the new arena, which will also have contactless grab-and-go food and mobile ordering, restrooms equipped with touchless fixtures and dispensers and cashless checkout options.

THE NEW UBS Arena will feature new technology and protocols to protect patrons from the coronavirus. Additionally, anyone who visits the Preview Club over the next few months will be required to practice social distancing and wear face coverings, except when they are eating and drinking, and all staff will receive the “proper mandatory train-

ing” on Covid-19 disinfection and safety protocols, including PPE usage and Covid symptom reporting protocols. “We know what works,” Bosco said, “and we’re trying to match it up with customer experience.” Bosco had been helping Australian Open officials deal with the wildfires last year, he said, when he saw the coronavirus start to spread throughout the East. He then became involved in two interna-

tional task forces to address the spread of the respiratory illness, and soon, he said, “It became real clear that this was airborne.” Since then, Bosco has been recommending that arenas use better ventilation and filtration systems, which is easier to install in newer buildings with precise control systems. “We have a better understanding of these buildings,” Bosco said, noting that he uses an equation to determine how much the virus could spread in a given location, and “as you start adding masks and ventilation, that risk drops.” In fact, he said, the risk of getting Covid at the new UBS Arena could be as low as 10 percent with more people receiving the coronavirus vaccine and more aggressive cleaning practices. “From hockey games to concerts and other live events,” Dr. K Elizabeth Hawk, a medical doctor who also assisted UBS officials in the design of the arena’s Covid-19 protocols, said in a statement, “UBS Arena will cultivate an inviting environment in which guests can connect and enjoy a memorable experience as they look to safely take advantage of the arena’s unique amenities.” It is scheduled to open in October.

y March 4-10 column, “Voting is an act of choice and an expression of voice,” prompted a note from someone who wanted to talk about threats to democracy. He leads a group of citizens who support candidates, without regard to party affiliation, as long as they support the principles of democratic government. He also said the group avoids candidates on the extreme right and left. When I asked for examples of positions taken by the extreme left, he referred to U.S. ROBERT Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and SCOTT three other female members of the House of Representatives. These four popularly elected officials, however, do not advocate revolution or communism and are not anti-capitalism. Indeed, they advocate policies that the majority of Americans support. These include President Biden’s pandemic rescue plan, an infrastructure bill to repair roads and bridges and expand broadband, background checks for gun purchases, renewable energy with tax credits and increased taxes on large corporations that currently pay low or no taxes. They advocate policies

to address income inequality, climate change and international cooperation. They do not deny the protections of the Constitution. If these are far-left policies, then the majority of Americans are far left. My reader then mentioned Sen. Bernie Sanders. While Sanders calls himself a socialist, he does not advocate a government takeover of private business. He calls for protections of workers and fair treatment for those on Main Street, not just for those on Wall Street. Even Jamie Dimon of JPMorgan Chase has cited the need to eliminate tax subsidies for hedge funds, private jets and golf courses. That’s is what socialism looks like: government subsidies for private enterprise. In contrast, the far right attempted to undo a legitimate presidential election. It also is determined to remove government regulations that ensure food and water safety. Alarmingly, members of the far right also advocate severe limitations to voting by claiming, without evidence, that there was widespread voter fraud in the 2020 and 2016 presidential elections. In sum, it appears that those my correspondent called far left support programs that most Americans view as necessary, and those he calls far right want to reduce and limit the rights of Americans. Some cite the protests associated with

Black Lives Matter gatherings as evidence of far-left activity, but those protests were largely peaceful and advocated fair treatment by police. They have not threatened lives the way white supremacist groups have in Washington, D.C., Oregon, Virginia and elsewhere, or planned to abduct an elected official, as they did in Michigan. In fact, while a 2020 review of almost 900 politically motivated acts committed since 1994 found that some were committed by farleft groups, such as the Animal Liberation Front and the Earth Liberation Front, the attacks resulted in one death. During the same 25-year span, acts committed by farright groups ended in 329 fatalities. It is true that some on the left have called for “defunding” the police in response to cases of police brutality and the use by police departments of militarystyle weapons, vehicles and tactics. But this has been largely a matter of rhetoric to force an agenda. Calls for defunding the police are a plea for shifting some funds from policing to mental health counseling, conflict-reduction training and community policing. At times, it seems the media and others promote false equivalencies in order to acknowledge both sides of an issue. But that leads to a distortion of truth, in this

hen media and others go out of their way to consider both sides of an issue.

case by claiming that there are equivalent extremists on both sides of the political aisle. We can see this in claims of “cancel culture.” Yes, speeches by some conservative commentators have been canceled because of student protests, and there are threats to free expression on some college campuses where groups try to mandate anti-racism programs. I disagree with many of these actions. Alternative points of view should be debated, presumptions of guilt should give way to evidence, and intolerance of questions has no place at a university. But these incidents pale in comparison to the far-right efforts to pass legislation controlling what can be taught and who can teach at universities, in defiance of a Supreme Court ruling. Our democracy requires truth, transparency and less anger. We need our elected officials to reflect the will of an informed citizenry and to work together for the common good. We need to protect the principles of social justice and equitable treatment. If one side is always saying no to policies that a majority of Americans support, you have to wonder why. There is no path to justice when anger prevails, when some rely on alternative facts, and when no one listens to contrary opinions. Robert A. Scott is president emeritus of Adelphi University and author of “How University Boards Work” (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2018, Eric Hopper Awardee, 2019).

Just another day in America: Eight shot dead

don’t care if you are numb to this outrage. I don’t care if I’m numb to it. From where I sit, the carnage from gun violence in America, the continuing, ongoing, shocking deaths by gun, move to the head of the must-do list for this new administration. We know that list is long, and every one of the top five issues feels like a hemorrhaging wound that needs to be stanched. Covid vaccine rollout? Migrants at the border? Stimulus for the economy? Crumbling bridges? Insurgents RANDI storming the halls KREISS of government? Every problem demands action, but the national epidemic of gun violence speaks to a malignant cultural sickness that we need to treat now. 2020, the year of the pandemic, was the deadliest year for gun fatalities in decades, according to The Washington Post. That fact is especially interesting because the number of mass shootings (four or more people killed) decreased. Apparently, people were home more, so they just shot one

another. We are making up for the dip. Since January, we have suffered 147 mass shootings in America. Some 12,416 people were killed by guns over these four months. These are people shooting family and friends and strangers. These are suicides and armed robberies and kids picking up guns and shooting their brothers and sisters. These are drive-by hits and “accidental” killings. No one wants to take away anyone’s legally owned guns. But we need better laws to keep guns out of the hands of children and criminals and unstable individuals. We need bans on military-style automatic weapons. Last week, President Biden said he would take executive action to fight what he called “an epidemic and an international embarrassment of gun violence.” It is a modest initiative. Golda Meir famously said that when Israel’s enemies loved their children more than they hated Israel, peace would be possible. The same could be said of Congress: When they love our children more than they hate standing up to the National Rifle Association, the slaughter will stop.

As I write, police are investigating a mass shooting at a FedEx outlet in Indiana. Within an hour of the murders, the usual post-massacre teams gathered at the scene: police, media by the truckload and a group that travels from killing spree to killing spree with counselors and money for funerals and warnings about post-murder scams. The fact that we have such a team in America is both an indictment of our society and, obviously, a necessity. We all know the lingo of “lockdown” and “active shooter” and PTSD caused by shootings. Really, it is an abomination that we have become so proficient at handling the tragedies rather than preventing them. Remember Sandy Hook? Dylan’s mom and Daniel’s dad write to me often. In truth, I dread reading their e-mails; their words darken the day. But how wrenching it must be to write the words. These parents are leaders of the Sandy Hook Promise Foundation, the group that advocates stricter gun-control laws. They are victims of the tragedy, both having lost first-graders in the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012. Their work is pure and hero-

wo parents of children killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School write to me often.

ic — trying to find a slender thread of hope in the heap of terrible grief that has consumed their lives. When 20 little kids were murdered in their classrooms and no serious gun control was enacted, it was more than disheartening. The legal gridlock effectively proved the intractable power of the National Rifle Association. Schools installed locks and alarms, but this isn’t about inventing better security systems in our schools. If alligators were on the loose in schools, we wouldn’t give our kids alligator repellent. We would get rid of the alligators. In an average year in this country, guns kill some 30,000 people. The information comes from the Gun Violence Archive, a nonprofit formed in 2013 to offer free online public access information about gun-related violence in the U.S. We need legislators to write and pass laws that will end the slaughter. Do members of Congress love their children? You bet they do. Do they love their jobs so much that they won’t stand up to the NRA? You bet they do. When they love their children, and America’s children, more than they love NRA money, we may finally see support for real gun-control laws. Copyright 2021 Randi Kreiss.

L.I. making strides on the environmental front

pril 22 is Earth Day, when we come together as a nation — and a planet — to celebrate the natural world and renew our vows to protect the environment from harm. In honor of Earth Day five years ago, the Herald developed a three-part wish list of actions that government representatives and private citizens might take to help clean up and preserve Long Island’s environment. This year, we decided to take a look back and see how we’re faring in meeting the goals on this seemingly lofty list. Point One: Cleanup of the Northrop Grumman toxic plume. In 2016, we wrote, “Gov. Andrew Cuomo and the State Department of Environmental Conservation must find a way to force Northrop Grumman and the Navy to clean up the toxic mess they left behind in Bethpage, Wantagh and Seaford. The toxic plume that formed during World War II beneath the old Grumman aerospace plant in Bethpage is steadily moving southward. Chemicals used to manufacture naval warplanes were carelessly allowed to seep into the ground. If the plume isn’t stopped, it will eventually reach South Oyster Bay, contaminating the fragile wetland ecosystem that hugs the entire South Shore and harming, if not destroying, the area’s fishing and clamming industries. The stakes could not be higher.” We are happy to report that Cuomo announced a $406 million remediation plan in December among the state, Northrop Grumman and the Navy to clean up the plume. The only trouble: Doing so could take 100 years, showing us, in no uncertain terms, that it’s far

How it all began In 1970, America led the way in founding the now international Earth Day movement. Sen. Gaylord Nelson, a Wisconsin Democrat, came up with the idea after witnessing the environmental devastation caused by an infamous 100,000-barrel oil spill in Santa Barbara, Calif., in 1969, according to the nonprofit Earth Day Network. On the first Earth Day — April 22, 1970 — some 20 million Americans took to the streets and parks to protest widespread industrial damage to the environment. better to prevent damage to the environment through government regulation than to allow polluters to have their way. Point Two: An ocean outfall pipe for the Bay Park Water Reclamation Facility, one of two Nassau County sewage treatment plants. In 2016, we wrote, “Our federal, state and local governments must –– must –– find a way to fund an ocean outflow pipe from the Bay Park Sewage Treatment Plant, a county facility, three miles out to the Atlantic Ocean. The greatest environmental threat facing the South Shore is nitrogen-laden effluent from the treatment plant. Each day, millions of gallons of this wastewater pour out from a cement pipe in the middle of Reynolds Channel, just north of Long Beach. From there it is dispersed by the tides. “The nitrogen accelerates seaweed growth. The seaweed, which grows to unnatural lengths, easily breaks apart and rots, robbing marine life of dissolved oxygen. There are now whole sections of

LETTERS Congratulations to the Heralds To the Editor: Congratulations to the Herald Community Newspapers on winning 26 awards at the New York Press Association’s Better Newspaper Contest. Week in and week out, the Heralds provide high-quality coverage of the news that matters most to our community, and the dozens of honors the newspapers received are a testament to that fact. In particular, Senior Editor Michael Smollins deserves special recognition for earning the second-place prize in the Best News Story category for his reporting on a critical environmental issue facing our communities. Likewise, Executive Editor Scott Brinton is to be commended for receiving third place in both the Best Column and Best Editorial categories, in addition to two other honors.

the Western Bays that are considered ‘dead zones.’” Today, we are happy to report that the county is moving ahead rapidly with plans to construct a $408 million pipe from the Bay Park plant under Sunrise Highway, in an abandoned aqueduct, and then on to the Cedar Creek Water Pollution Control Plant. From there, it will be sent three miles into the Atlantic Ocean. Point Three: Nitrogen reduction. In 2016, we wrote, “Local municipalities, businesses and even homeowners must take responsibility for the unnecessarily high amounts of fertilizers they pour on lawns to keep them emerald green. Golf courses consume vast amounts of fertilizer. So do homes. Any excess fertilizer that doesn’t dissolve into the ground is washed into street drains, and from there into the bays. Fertilizers also accelerate seaweed growth,” damaging the bays. In 2021, we are happy to report that the Long Island Nitrogen Action Plan, a partnership among the DEC, the Long Island Regional Planning Council, and Nassau and Suffolk counties, has made significant progress in assessing the extent of Long Island’s nitrogen pollution and developing plans to reduce it. So much more needs to be done, however. Homeowners can help by spreading only organic fertilizers on their lawns. The organics dissolve slower in the soil and do not wash away as easily as synthetic fertilizers. Clearly, Long Island has made significant strides these past five years, which is cause for celebration. Protecting our environment, however, is a never-ending battle that we must win.

he federal Food and Drug Administration and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on April 13 advised that states temporarily pause administration of the Johnson & Johnson Covid-19 vaccine. There’s no question that the cases of six women who suffered unusual blood clots — one of whom died — need to be monitored and considered closely. This is certainly an alarming setback. But the abundance of caution exhibited does not mean the vaccine is unsafe BRUCE for widespread use. Rather, it FARBER means that we are following a safety measure that was installed in the process to safeguard further patients who may be susceptible to clotting. This is what we want to see during the vaccination process, or for any medical treatment, for that matter. In fact, this news demonstrates that the process is working. Safety has always

been paramount to this massive vaccination effort, perhaps the largest clinical undertaking in centuries. This pause — and let me reiterate that it is only a pause for now — indicates that the U.S. is well organized to evaluate, and ideally prevent, these occurrences. The Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System is used by agencies to report the side effects of vaccines, an effective and seamless way for federal agencies to alert physicians to symptoms of these seldom-seen blood clots and treat them properly if they encounter them. In terms of J&J’s vaccine, more than 6.8 million people had already received the single-shot dose before the pause, so there was about one-in-amillion chance of this severe clotting to occur. And still, the six cases were enough to persuade clinical advisers to decide to review progress before moving forward. The CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices is meeting to investigate these cases closely to determine their cause, and whether vaccinations should continue. Their job is to

County seeks $85 million for veterans’ care To the Editor: My administration is seeking $85 million in federal infrastructure funding to expand health care and housing for veterans. The funding would help the Nassau Health Care Corporation renovate facilities to include veterans’ in-patient services and specialized care, establish a Veterans’ Adult Day Health Care Program and upgrade unoccupied apartment buildings on NHCC’s East Meadow campus to house veterans suffering from housing insecurity. The funding would preserve NHCC’s role as the region’s only public-safety-net health care system and establish an important satellite for the Northport Veterans Affairs Hospital for thousands of veterans who require treatment but find it out of reach because of the distance. We have an opportunity to expand critical care and enhance quality of life for thousands of veterans who served our country. Too many veterans right now in Nassau face burdensome hurdles as they travel to out-of-county facilities for specialized care. This is a chance for

openly discuss the safety and process moving forward. And in the age of misinformation, their work is critical to presenting the facts. Vaccines are the biggest weapon in the fight against Covid-19, and in a timely way, because timing does matter. It matters in places like Michigan, which is now seeing a fourth surge in coronavirus cases and hospitalizations. It matters for countries like Thailand, which until now have been able to contain the virus. And it certainly matters for the loved ones of the women who suffered the blood clots. I can almost hear the faint calls of those who have been hesitant or resistant to being vaccinated. They will likely mislabel these rare side effects as common, distorting them into reasons to skip the inoculations. That would be a grave mistake and miscalculation. With Covid-19 stubbornly hanging on as the third-leading cause of death in the U.S., we cannot afford to simply eliminate this type of vaccine from our anti-pan-

demic arsenal without the most careful consideration, nor can we afford for nine million recently shipped doses to go unused. Let’s not mince words about the need for this vaccine. The World Health Organization reported that more than four million people were recently diagnosed with Covid-19 in a single week. In that context, our federal agencies bear a heavy burden as they evaluate whether these unusual medical occurrences are vaccine-related. Let’s push forward with the use of the other vaccines while we place some trust in the agencies charged with investigating the safety of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. For all of us, I hope for a better understanding of why the women suffered the severe clotting, and the establishment of parameters so we can safely resume the use of the vaccine in the near future.

the federal government to step up in the upcoming round of stimulus bill discussions to deliver for our veteran community. Veterans who live in Nassau often travel hours to access enhanced medical treatments offered at VA hospitals. The closest hospitals for Nassau’s more than 40,000 veterans are outside the county, in Suffolk, Brooklyn and Manhattan. The distance and time required to get to these facilities is often difficult for veterans to navigate, and as a result, a disproportionate number of veterans lack access to medical care. Nassau has a proud tradition of supporting the heroes who served our country. Expanding existing services and renovating unused space in our county could help transform how Nassau serves them. Through a hybrid health care model that preserves NHCC’s mission of serving the most vulnerable, Nassau would become home to New York state’s first Veteran Housing Village.

Remembering Jackie Robinson To the Editor: April 15 marked the 74th anniversary of Jackie Robinson playing his first major league baseball game for the Brooklyn Dodgers. It was a milestone for

integrating the sport. It was a time when working- and middle-class men and women of all ages, classes, races and religions commingled in the stands rooting for Robinson and his teammates, regardless of ethnic origin, game after game. Ordinary Brooklyn natives could ride the bus, trolley or subway to Ebbets Field to see their beloved Dodgers. Everyone could afford a bleacher seat. Hot dogs, beer, other refreshments and souvenirs were reasonably priced.

Just as Robinson fought racism in the 1950s, the Detroit Tigers’ Hank Greenberg had to do the same with anti-Semitism in his time, during the ’30s and ’40s. Robinson and Greenberg both show us the long-lasting relationship between African-American and Jewish sports fans standing together for decades in support of one another. LARRY PENNER Great Neck
