We have finished our phase two and three of the science labs and I’m super excit ed that we are going to have ready for our first soccer game, which is Sept. 6, and our first football game, which is Sept. 9, our brand new state-of-the art scoreboard.

Hegarty Elementary School in Island Park. “Today was their first day, so this is exciting.” Catherine said the new backpack and supplies would help keep her at the top of her class. “It’s going to give me a lot of stuff to get ready for school,” she said.
“It seems like it was done purposeful ly,” Burroughs said. “The day before kids are back in school in some districts, obviously this doesn’t allow some par ents with children to get here. However, you can see this is still well attended.” Some 100 people attended the meeting to discuss how the latest U.S. Census numbers affected how residents would be represented at the county level. Among those in the audience was anoth er Hempstead village resident, Daniel Oppenheimer, who said he believes the county needs to be more transparent with their map creation process as well as the data they’re using to create new district maps. He said he doubts officials will share enough data to paint the full picture of the segregation, separation and inequal ity throughout Nassau County. “We need publicly available data, posted clearly, and actually research the raw data,” Oppenheimer said. “Not just the secondhand or thirdhand data after the scientists go through it. We need to see the data they are using to make these maps to have an educated opinion.” But it would be hard to take diversity and representation into account if that diversity doesn’t exist on the redistrict ing committee itself, Valley Stream’s Cristina Arroyo Rodriguez said. To emphasize that point, the former Herald reporter approached the podium and began her remarks in Spanish.
“The Catch-22 we are in is cyclical,” Arroyo Rodriguez said. “The appoint ment of the members on this commis sion was not random. Those in power picked them. Unfortunately, those in power have proven themselves to be uninterested in proper representation and true “Creatingequity.a fair district map is the first step in remedying equitable repre sentation. And gerrymandering is the firstThebarrier.”infamous art of “cracking” and “packing,” to create districts that favor specific candidates or political leanings is something Arroyo Rodriguez and oth ers spole out against. They don’t like the way they believe officials can cut up and divide communities within a district to manipulate the electorate to their favor.

–Andre Silva Stalemate in the commission
It’s a unique opportunity to reshape town lines and political power within Nassau County — an occasion that comes just once every decade. When people in Nassau County got together back in 2012, they worked to decide how each of their communities would be represented on the county leg islature. But in the first hearing of the 2020s held last week, many came togeth er at the Theodore Roosevelt Legislative Building in Mineola to voice their dis dain for the process.
After a brief pause, she repeated her statements — this time in English — explaining the confusion and misunder standing the committee members likely felt as she spoke a different language is the exact same confusion and misunder standing that thousands of non-English speakers feel in Nassau County.
Timothy Rodgers, who has lived 30 years in Nassau, said the effects of ger rymandering and redistricting have left communities — particularly communi ties of color — in a state of decay. Since the previous redistricting a decade ago, he’s noticed a systemic disparity and a misrepresentation of resources in these communities.“Withablindfold on, you can start driving from Garden City, and you’ll know when you get to Hempstead or Rockville Centre,” he said.
Rodgers said he loves his community dearly, and was motivated to come attend the hearing to speak on behalf of his neighbors. Like other members of the public, he hopes this year’s redis tricting takes testimonies like his and others into consideration to create an equitable and fair map for the entire county.The committee — known officially as the Temporary Districting Advisory Commission — is tasked to have its new district lines finalized by Nov. 7.
Nassau voters say they’re tired of redistricting

NASSAu CouNty’S tEmpoRARy Districting Advisory Commission meets every 10 years after a census to consider redrawing county legislative lines. This time around, some of the people who live in those existing districts are asking for more diversity and inclusion. Before public testimonials began in front of the Nassau County redistricting committee this past week, Democratic appointee David Mejias challenged the motivations of his Republican counter parts, saying they intentionally stonewall ing the process to redistrict county legisla ture seats. That way, GOPers could have free reign to adopt what he described as an unlawful map in November. where it would be nearly impossible for anyone to effectively challenge the map under feder al law.Mejias went as far as saying he and other Democratic appointees in the minor ity scrounged a list of potential locations and dates to hold possible hearings, with no answer or response from Republicans in agreeing to the dates. Furthermore, at the committee’s current pace, the hearing to approve the map by both delegations would even happen until Nov. 10 at 5 p.m. That would leave the public just one hour to view a map that could potentially rule the county for the next 10 years, MejiasPeteradded.Bee,who leads the majority con tingent on the redistricting committee, said he was disappointed Mejias would start the hearing with a partisan attack on the good faith and integrity of the Republican members of the committee. Bee said he appreciated the minority delegation’s efforts in finding locations and times where the committee can convene and lis ten to the public, and that in the mean time, the commission should focus less on attacking each others’ motivations, and more on what they were charged by law to do.
Noah Burroughs, a Hempstead vil lage trustee, said he was not given enough time or notice for this particular.

The Pride returned only a few starters from a 17-4-1 2021 campaign that saw the program win its fourth CAA title in five seasons and reach the second round of the NCAAs. With many new faces, 17th-year head coach Simon Riddiough said it could be a long process before determining who will comprise his consistent starting lineup.“It’s going to take a lot more work than we had hoped, but we’ll get there,” Riddiough said. “I think we’re going to have a lot of ups this season and downs and hopefully we can come out on a high note at the end.” Hofstra still returns some key pieces from the CAA championship squad including a stout backline featur ing veteran defenders Anja Suttner, Krista Agostinello and Louise Hayden along with senior goalie Skylar Kuzmich, who recorded 12 solo shutouts last season. After a 3-2 season opening win against Fairleigh Dickin son University (FDU), the defense did not surrender a goal in its next two matches, a 0-0 tie with Yale and 3-0 win against Albany. Senior forward Ellen Halseth is the leading returning scorer off a 2021 season with 10 points and she netted the winning goal against FDU with just 2:19 remaining. The Pride have also gotten a spark plug early on this season from freshmen Thorhildur Thorhallsdottir, who netted the season’s first goal off an assist from fellow Iceland native Dagny Run Petursdottir.
Mason Tatafu, who won Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) Rookie of the Year honors last season and tallied a goal in the Fordham victory, is also a central part of the offense along with team captain Stefan Mason. On defense, the Pride returned All-CAA First Team goalkeeper Wessel Speel following a sophomore season in which The Netherlands native achieved a 0.90 goals against average with eight shutouts and 72 saves. The backline in front of Speel includes Merrick native Pierce Infuso, who had 20 starts as a sophomore. “He exceeded all expectations last year as a younger member of the team,” said Nuttall of the former Bell more JFK High School standout,. “He is a rock solid part of what we do.” Hofstra, which was picked to repeat as CAA champi ons as a unanimous selection of the league’s coaches opens the home portion of its conference schedule on Sept. 17 against Northeastern at 7 p.m.

Hofstra seeks another NCAA tourney run
Many new faces for Pride women Hofstra women’s soccer lost plenty of talent off of last year’s veteran-laden NCAA Tournament team and is seeking another climb to the postseason with a far younger squad.
Riddiough sees plenty of potential from some of his local newcomers receiving extended playing time this fall including forwards Leah Iglesias (Carle Place) and Cailey Welch (Glen Head). Sophomore forward/midfield er Olivia Pearse, a former standout at Seaford High School, netted two goals as a freshman. “We have huge expectations for her,” said Riddiough of Pearce. “She’s got tremendous ability.” The upcoming home schedule is highlighted by a visit from Pac 12 foe Oregon on Sept. 11 at 7 p.m.. Hofstra also hosts CAA newcomer Stony Brook in the regular season finale on Oct. 23 at 1 p.m. to kick off a new era for the Long Island rivals.
he Hofstra men’s soccer team has a big act to fol low on heels of last year’s historic run to the third round of the NCAA Tournament. Hofstra won two NCAA tourney games for the first time in program history including an 8-2 rout of Big Ten power Penn State in the second round that took the college soccer world by storm. The Pride bring back the brunt of last year’s team that went 18-2-2 with a 17-match unbeaten streak and the program’s first Colonial Athlet ic Association title since 2015, but lost its best defender in George O’Malley and one of its top goal scorers, Matthew Vowinkel.“Onceyou’ve had a taste of it you want more,” Hofs tra’s 34th-year head coach Richard Nuttall said. “Hope fully that will drive our returning players forward.” Hofstra entered the season ranked 17th nationally in the United Soccer Coaches Poll and opened the new cam paign with a dramatic 2-1 home win against Fordham on a goal from Eliot Goldthorp with just one second left. Some key returners from the 2021 team, which led the nation in goals (56) and points (170) include reigning AllAmerican senior midfielder Hendrik Hebbeker, who had 9 tallies to go along with 11 assists last fall.
Ryan Carmichael, who was the country’s leading scor er with 39 points, assisted on Goldthorp’s winning goal.

suPeRINteNdeNts fROm sChOOl districts spanning Long Island visited the Mack S. Davis Center for Intelligence to hear how to better protect their students and those responsible for teaching them. Before police officers step into a volatile situation, they have an action plan they must adhere to with the hopes of de-escalating a situation before more drastic measures are needed.Among the steps for ‘Prepare’ are:
■ Education: Empower and practice preparedness with staff members and students through training to look out for suspicious activity.
■ Activation: Should an active assailant incident occur, notify NCPD through the Rave Panic Button locat ed in schools.
■ Prevention/Preparation: Daily school visits from patrol cars help develop situational awareness.
■ Recognition: Be able to see signs of a person in crisis with the goal of intervention before action.
Tim Baker/Herald photos NAssAu COuNty POlICe commissioner Patrick Ryder holds the new Halligan breaching tool used to get past secured doors, paid for by the State Law Enforcement Terrorism Prevention Grant. Behind him, members of his department model different outfits worn for different situations — from visiting a school in regular gear, to engaging tactical measures in the worst of situations.
With school back, safety is first concern
■ Partnership: Partner with the Nas sau County Police Department by informing them with “actionable” information.
Leaving nothing up to chance, Nassau County Police Department commission er Patrick Ryder told an audience of school administrators last week that he — and the police force behind him — have their backs, and the backs of their students.Using step-by-step techniques and new tools like the Halligan crow bar — for a lack of a better description — fund ed by the State Law Enforcement Terror ism Prevention Grant, Ryder assured these educational leaders his police force can handle anything thrown at them. Unveiling a seven-point plan spelling out the word “prepare,” Ryder described the steps to prevent and respond to a mass shooting event. Two key elements involve use of a smart app known as Rave — a panic button of sorts that alerts the nearest police officer of a situ ation, and the appropriate training for when that officer first arrives on the scene.The idea is to get someone inside to help end a situation, even if backup has yet to “Hearrive.isgoing to get in and get into that classroom as quick as we can to stop the shooter,” Ryder said. “It’s all about time, slowing the shooter, getting the cops there faster, protecting the people inside the building. And that’s how we save lives.”It’s the kind of response that comes more into focus these days, especially after the reportedly long response time to an active shooter in Uvalde, Texas, last May where there’s a general belief that by moving faster, many of the 19 ele mentary school students who were killed could have been saved. When every second counts in a mass shooting situation, it helps that every patrol car is equipped with tactical gear, Ryder said, including Kevlar, helmets andNewtourniquets.equipment such as the Halligan breaching tool will cut the time it takes to get inside somewhere. Since schools lock down in the case of an emergency, the attending officers can pry and pop open a locked door in a matter of a few quickThemovements.ideaforthe Halligan came from looking at other first responders. “Sometimes you’ve got to look at other entities — like the fire depart ments — and use them,” Ryder said. “So, we bought the sledge first to break a window, get in, clear the window. But you also want something to pry. If you take a Halligan in, and then you hit it with the sledge, it’s really going to pop theMatthewdoor.” Gaven feels protected. A new superintendent in Rockville Centre, Gaven attended Ryder’s demonstration, listening in on ways students can be kept safe. It helps, he said, that village police officials assign officers to walk through Rockville Centre schools on a regular basis, familiarizing themselves with the layout. “You heard the commissioner talk about coordinating very, very well — and they do,” Gaven said. “Our commission er, James Vafeades, he’s amazing. I’ve known him for a long time, and he and Rob Connolly coordinate very well. The village works hand-in-hand” with the NCPD.Part of the seminar’s goal was to build a strong bond between law enforce ment and school officials, Ryder said. But many have already taken the county police commissioner’s advice to create a safter“We’respace.just glad that we have the resources that we have to keep our schools safe,” said Judith LaRocca, Val ley Stream’s superintendent. “I think that partnership is really important.” In the Valley Stream, LaRocca says seeing patrol officers on the grounds are a daily and welcome occurrence.

Oceanside Sept. 11 victims remembered
Sixteen years have passed since that dark day in our nation’s history. The observance of Sept. 11 continues to be a time for remembrance, healing and sol ace, and hope for the future. The Herald hopes this photo page of victims, killed in the terrorists attacks in New York, who had a connection to Oceanside some were born and grew up in the town, others lived there as adults or served in its fire department will help memori alize them.
Jerry Kremer, a veteran political com mentator and a Herald colum nist, said Gillen has broader name recognition than D’Esposito, even if she did lose the 2019 race. “She ran in a bad year for Dem ocrats,” Kremer added.Hesaid he also thinks that stress ing women’s rights in the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court’s overturn of Roe v. Wade also could give her an advantage. Yet, even being well known, a win for Gillen is “not a slam dunk. November is a long way off.”
“I’m a mother of four,” Gillen said. “I am the only candidate (in this race) who will stand up to the gun lobby.”
In her Democratic primary race last month, Laura Gillen faced jabs from her opponent she had lost her 2019 re-election bid for Hempstead town supervisor. Yet, Gillen won the primary anyway. But her race this November against Anthony D’Esposito could be, as the late great Yogi Berra once said, deja vu all over again.D’Esposito — a Hempstead town coun cilman representing the Republican ticket in the race — also believes Gillen’s loss to fellow GOPer Donald Clavin will give him an edge in the race to replace U.S. Rep. Kathleen Rice, a Democrat, who is retiring after 10 years in the U.S. House. And, as before, Gillen has a ready answer. While she was town supervisor, she had support from Democrats and Republicans. And, Rice won her races by healthy margins over her Republican opponents. According to the Cook Partisan Voter Index, the district’s results were four percentage points more Democratic than the national average.
D’Esposito falls back on his law enforce ment“Whenbackground.itcomes to guns, there is one person in this race who has spent 29 years taking guns away from people,” citing as a cop, he made “1,000 seizures of illegal guns” and “600 arrests” in connection with murders and shootings.
When it comes to assault weapons: “There needs to be more education in place” about such weapons. “And proper background checks.”

Anthony D’Esposito Laura Gillen
The race is important nationally, as Democrats hope to hold onto control of the House, where they currently have just a 130-member lead. The non-partisan Cook report rates 10 Democratic seats as leaning toward or likely Republican against three Republican seats that lean Democratic.
Gillen, D’Esposito, look to spirited campaign
D’Esposito has already claimed Gillen “is embraced by a party of radicals.” Gillen accuses D’Esposito of being an extremist.
Supporters say it prevent jails from being punishment only for the poor. Those who are against it claim it puts criminals back on the street to create more victims. “As town supervisor, I worked with law enforcement to battle crime and corrup tion, and to protect the residents of this district,” Gillen said, in an email. “At this moment, one of greatest threats to our community is posed by extremists like my opponent who want to strip women and girls of their rights and prevent them from ending a pregnancy when their lives are in danger, or when they are raped.”
By JAMES BERNSTEIN jbernstein@liherald.com
D’Esposito, who won a special election to the Hempstead town board in 2016, was re-elected to a full four-year term in 2017. He’s a retired New York City police detec tive who worked in Brooklyn.“Myopponent is going to be a rubber stamp for Joe tionD’EspositoBiden,”said.Heseesinflaand“the failed policies of Joe Biden” as key issues in the race, along with crime, citing “cash less” bail as a product of the Democratic Party.“Cashless bail has left our communities less safe,” D’Esposito said. Such bail mea sures limit what judges can set to hold sus pects accused of crimes for most misde meanors and non-violent felonies. Judges are required to release people with the least restrictive conditions, as long as they are ensured they’ll return for court dates.
“What we need to do is focus on prose cution of people who have guns and no licenses,” D’Esposito said.
As the campaign officially, more or less, kicks off after the Labor Day Weekend, both candidates promise a spirited race. But it already seems to be turning bitter.
While Gillen considers abortion rights a major issue, D’Esposito, takes a more narrow“What’sposition.important to focus on is that, in New York, nothing is going to change,” he said, adding abortions are still legal in the state.“Women here are still protected,” D’Esposito said. “There are too may here who believe that their rights are not pro tected.”Gillen makes clear she thinks guns are a major problem and that assault weapons should be prohibited.
“I’m running because I’m concerned about the direction of the country,” Gillen, a Rockville Centre-based attorney, said in an interview. She pointed to Roe v. Wade as well as her concern that if Republicans take control of congress, a woman’s’ right to an abortion will be eliminated nationally.
The band’s energetic sound fuses the passion of old-American folk with country rock and their Irish heritage.TheAOH, which hosts the event with the Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians of Nassau County, encourages all to settle in for the day, ready to experience these age-old traditions that never go out of style.
As far back as 18th century Ireland, communities would come together for special festivals of dance and music — involving competitions, laughter and good times. That tradition continues here in Nassau County, where, since 1972, the AOH keeps the culture at the forefront with its feis, held every September.
The Nassau County Feis, according to the Ancient Order of Hibernians, retains the rare distinction of being a full feis in the traditional meaning of that term, in that it showcases not only Irish step dancing competitions, but also a full menu of Gaelic bagpiping, traditional Irish music and song, Irish language activities, games, and sports.
“As an Irish/American Catholic organization, both the AOH and the LAOH are determined to promote our Irish heritage culture and Catholic faith and values,” says Feis chair Mike Byrne. “We are looking forward to another great day.”

“It’s a great project,” Parisi said. “In theory, what they’re doing is a great thing for Long Island. But they’re doing a lot of this at the expense of a lot of homeowners. We can’t even have people come over here. I mean, the place just rattles.” Last week’s meeting wasn’t the first time neighbors have addressed these concerns. Project managers invited many of the homeowners to an open forum meeting last May at the South Merrick Community Center. At the time, residents were told work in the pit would be com pleted and paved no later than the end of June, or in a worst-case scenario, the second week of July. But as September rolled in, Parisi said he has had enough.“They’re all full of beans,” he said, adding that just the week before, he tried to have his daughter and young grandchildren over. “They had to leave early because the kids couldn’t sleep,” Parisi said. “The bedroom was shaking. We’re casualties of the project.” While agreeing the project is necessary to support native ecosystems, Parisi still just wants crews to meet him halfway. He suggests blocking off the middle lane on Sunrise Highway where trucks pass the concrete plate and cause vibrations. Work teams also could slow down traffic, or simply divert the trucks to other lanes. In all, the Bay Park Conveyance Project will construct 11 miles of new pipeline, costing $830 million.

“Sliplining” is repurposing an older pipe by slipping a newer, smaller pipe inside. “Microtunneling” is boring a vertical hole to help create a tunnel below the surface.
“There really should be no noticeable impact to the public,” he said, adding that the area distinguished by “BP1” marks a worksite where microtunneling first took place. That was later used to receive a shaft from another nearbyHowever,well crews will remain for a while.
Pouring the concrete for pump station columns inside the wet well and diversion structure at the South Shore facility poses no problem to the public, said Travis Bren nan, a spokesman for Western Bays Constructors.

“You will see us have a presence in the area through out the life of the project, albeit in a much less or differ ent capacity,” Brennan said. “So, we expect to have a presence there. But as we draw down and move our oper ations elsewhere, that area should see an improvement as far as the amount of activity happening on a day-todayOnebasis.”particularly controversial worksite is known as “Pit R,” which is along Sunrise Highway in Merrick, is not far from residential neighborhoods such as the Mer rick Manor Townhouses. One of the people who call that area home, Greg Parisi, has already reached out to every one from project managers to local politicians to the state transportation department since work started in January hoping to quell these quality-of-life issues.
It’s super early in the morning, barely sunrise. Cars and trucks trickle past construction crews along Sunrise Highway, working in what could be best described as pits.This is the Bay Park Conveyance Project, with a goal of improving marsh quality of life. Yet, for many neigh bors who live around the project, the work in the pits is diminishing theirs.

It’s all part of a state- and federally funded project intended to reduce nitrogen pollution in the Western Bays by redirecting treated water from the South Shore Water Reclamation Facility in Bay Park to the Cedar Creek facility. While some say this is an excellent step toward lowering chemicals in the bays for the wildlife that live there, neighbors are at their wits’ end over the consistent earthquake-esque rumbling all through the late-night and early morning hours. Some of those neighbors shared those concerns dur ing a virtual public information session last week hosted by the project leaders. At the same time, they learned crews are now constructing a new pump station within the confines of the South Shore Water Reclamation Facility at Bay Park, and that they are also continuing to slipline and microtunnel across the South Shore.

HERALD—20228,September 22 09/08H3
I was fascinated when I first learned this fact, so much so that I did my fifth-year thesis in Methods and Materials classes on “the effects of salt intrusion on concrete.” I visited worksites, took lots of notes, climbed through con demned bridges and on scaffolds to get an up-close examination of damage, followed repair procedures, studied parking garage structural design and then went to view each step of the parking garage’s con struction process. The most interesting thing I took away from all of that was the effects that translate to everything in nature, from our internal organs and outside skin tissue, to the growth of plants, the form ing of plastics and every kind of chemical and phys ical property and process. Concrete is an ever-changing composition, not a stable compound. It moves with thermal changes, expanding and contracting, elongating and shrink ing. As a solid material, most people think it’s waterproof when, in fact, concrete is absorbent. If you put the wrong waterproofing coating on it, it no longer breathes, and will violently react by forcing the surface to split in small eruptions, fighting off suffocation in the same way you would if someone tried restricting your breathing. The reaction is called spalling, which also happens when a liquid penetrates the surface and expands by freezing. To combat some of the reactions, since concrete isn’t very elastic, steel reinforcing rods, abbreviated as “rebar,” are added. If you place the rebar in the wrong places, they can actually have a negative effect. The ratios are calculated based on a very exact science that has been carefully researched. Engineering concrete isn’t guesswork, yet I see workers regularly setting up reinforcing, before the concrete is poured, in the wrong places and config urations.Youmay be missing expansion joints that allow the cracking to happen at the designated weak joints; there may have been too much water in the mix, causing the calcium whiteness to leach to the surface; or the internal heat from the curing of the concrete wasn’t able to dissipate properly if the air temperature was too high. Your concrete is going to have small cracks. Good luck! Ask Monte Leeper

Concrete cracks are showing up too soon
23 20228,September—HERALDPARKOCEANSIDE/ISLAND 09/08H4
Q. This spring we added a garage and replaced our driveway. It has only been about five months, but we’ve noticed cracks in the garage floor and a few in the driveway. The garage floor was perfect when the contractor left, flat and smooth, but now the cracks are showing, and in a couple of places I noticed it’s chalky white. I’m concerned that something was done wrong. The concrete was delivered and poured all together, from a big truck. Does it sound like some thing went wrong?

A. There are a few things in life that are inevitable, other than the obvious. The same goes for concrete. Inevitable cracking can be limited with an understanding of the details. Concrete is a chemical mixture. The chemicals and materials all work in a relationship that either binds, bonds and stabilizes, or various reactions occur.

I began using Airbnb and Vrbo some 20 years ago. What I never imagined was the joy of discovering a new place and trying it on for a few nights. The plus is that instead of getting just a room, where your husband blasts the TV at deafening levels, you can get a whole apartment or a house and have a kitchen and make pop corn instead of ordering room service. Hotels and motels have their own issues, especially these days when maid service is sometimes optional, and the free breakfast went out the door with the bell person. Reminds me of my “Psy cho” motel stay on a car trip from Florida to Long Island when my husband and I were in our 20s. We didn’t have a reservation, and everything was booked. By the time we got to North Carolina we were falling asleep, so we pulled into the Bates Motel, where Antho ny Perkins checked us in and watched us all night through a peephole. At least that’s what I remember. We slept in our clothes on top of the bed and left at dawn. When our kids were in college, we started renting houses we found through classifieds. There were phone calls and letters exchanged. We rented for years in Montana, from Darby to Missoula to Flathead Lake to Glacier Park. Those summers changed all of our lives in the best way. The kids became hikers and climbers and fishers and campers. When we had grandkids, we used Vrbo to rent houses in North Carolina for two-week stays in the summer. We never rented the same house twice, because that would have ruined the adventure. All in all, we did well, landing beautiful properties in the mountains. The only North Carolina bust was the sum mer we rented at the “famous” Lake Lure, only to discover that the lake had completely dried up. This summer we rented three different houses in Maine. Experience has taught me to read the descriptions very carefully. Does A/C mean real A/C or a unit in one window? Does “all amenities” include a washer and dryer? Does “lively setting in town” mean you’ll live above a biker bar? It’s always a risk, but you can preempt problems by asking all your ques tions upfront, by reading all the reviews and by taking out insurance. We narrow ly missed a possibly haunted stay at a house in Camden when I noticed the face of a woman in the window over the garage, in the photos. Turns out she comes with the house. “Oh, she never goes out,” the owner texted. We took a pass. One of our Maine houses was built in 1820, but was renovated and outfitted by someone who had a wonderful obsession with detail and fine linens. Another house was run down. The online photos were obviously taken a long time ago, and the owner gave us the wrong lock box code, so we couldn’t get in for a few hours. It did have a stunning view of Casco Bay. The third house was in the woods, whispering pines, immacu late and well supplied with cookware. It was also well supplied with wild turkeys, which screeched outside the bedroom window at 5 a.m. every day. There’s stuff you can’t anticipate. Airbnb and Vrbo and the other plat forms have changed our travel experi ences. Now, instead of being confined to a room, we can try on another life, with different walls around us and new neigh bors and mountains or rivers or ocean beaches out the window. We travel with Lillybee the dog. There are pet-friendly properties, and “no pets allowed” renters, but I have learned that sometimes an owner will be open to mak ing an exception for my “very small, hypoallergenic, well-trained pup.” Lilly bee has been an awesome Airbnb guest.

When I first heard about renting rooms and houses online, it seemed both danger ous and gross. I understood motels and hotels, but I didn’t get the concept of renting from actual people who might be smelly or predatory. Suddenly, real estate was on the market by the day, ranging from a room in apartmentanto a cabin in the woods to a mansion near Central Park. But who would change the sheets? What if there were bugs? And the crazy uncle with the hatchet hiding in the basement — what about him? I said it wasn’t for me, but I said that about the iPhone, too.
federal and state laws that wouldn’t have happened without the willingness of the two parties to sit down and collaborate on many contentious issue. But with each passing day I become more dis turbed about what has happened to the Republican Party, and by its inability to reform itself before it is eaten alive by people with the worst possible way of thinking.Thecurrent party is best described as whatever former President Donald Trump thinks it is. He calls it the MAGA party, but it’s really the Trump party. He supports candidates who embrace his philosophy and rejects any one who dares to challenge his thinking. Established politicians who were once the bedrock of the party are afraid to cross him on any issue for fear that his followers will turn on them.Iknow there are a lot of good Republicans serving in the current Congress, but if you did a Washing ton name recognition test, the majority of party mem bers would recognize only two promi nent names. One is Marjorie Taylor Greene, who is known for outlandish and clueless statements. The other is Liz Chaney, who warned America about the perils of being a Trump supporter and has paid a price for it. Until Trump came along, it had been a long time since the Republican Party had been saddled with anyone whose name alone was bad news for the party. I can think back to the days of Sen. Joseph McCarthy, followed by President Richard Nixon, and remember how they damaged the image of the party. But nei ther McCarthy nor Nixon was able to dominate the party’s thinking like Trump. He has established a strangle hold on the entire institu tion and has wiped out its great history, dating back to Abraham Lincoln. Any fair-minded Repub lican has to acknowledge that the party has taken a series of political beatings that would never have hap pened under any other sit ting or former president. In 2020, the party lost the House and the Senate, and it has a good chance of los ing the Senate again due to the weakness of a group of Trump-sup ported candidates for the midterm elec tion. In 2020, Trump brainwashed Geor gia voters into avoiding voting, which helped elect two Democrats to the Sen ate. That race alone tipped the Senate balance in favor of the Democrats. The vast majority of Republicans in this country are moderate to conserva tive thinkers who would fit nicely into the structure of any normal political organization. But today, a large number of those level-headed people believe the 2020 presidential election was stolen, even though Joe Biden beat Trump by 7 million votes. And many have become convinced that the electoral system is corrupt, and have been discouraged from taking part in the voting process. Many Republicans, as well, believe that Trump is a victim of a partisan judicial system, and that’s the cause of his current legal problems. Some invoke the name of Hillary Clinton, claiming she had the same legal problems as Trump, but that is totally false. If Clin ton did anything wrong, including vio lating the Federal Records Act, Trump had four years to punish her. The conclusion is simple: Donald J. Trump is a blight on the Republican Party, and the party will not be revived again until he has disappeared from the political landscape. I am 100 percent in favor of a Republican Party that looks to its better angels. Those days are a long way off.

Our military is powerful, and it’s prepared. Our emer gency teams are working in New York City and Washington, D.C., to help with local rescue efforts. Our first priority is to get help to those who have been injured, and to take every precaution to protect our citizens at home and around the world from fur therTheattacks.functions of our government con tinue without interruption. Federal agencies in Washington, which had to be evacuated today, are reopening for essen tial personnel tonight, and will be open for business tomorrow. Our financial institutions remain strong, and the American economy will be open for business as well. The search is underway for those who are behind these evil acts. I’ve directed the full resources of our intelligence and law enforcement communities to find those responsible and bring them to jus tice. We will make no distinction between the terrorists who committed these acts and those who harbor them. I appreciate so very much the mem bers of Congress who have joined me in strongly condemning these attacks. And on behalf of the American people, I thank the many world leaders who have called to offer their condolences and assistance.America and our friends and allies join with all those who want peace and security in the world, and we stand together to win the war against terror ism.Tonight I ask you for your prayers, for all those who grieve, for the children whose worlds have been shattered, for all whose sense of safety and security has been threatened. And I pray they will be comforted by a power greater than any of us, spoken through the ages in Psalm 23: “Even though I walk through the val ley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for you are with me.” This is a day when all Americans from every walk of life unite in our resolve for justice and peace. America has stood down enemies before, and we will do so thisNonetime.of us will ever forget this day, yet we go forward to defend freedom, and all that is good and just in the world. Thank you. Good night, and God bless America.
The pictures of airplanes flying into buildings, fires burning, huge structures collapsing, have filled us with disbelief, terrible sadness, and a quiet, unyielding anger.These acts of mass murder were intended to frighten our nation into chaos and retreat. But they have failed. Our country is strong. A great people has been moved to defend a great nation. Terrorist attacks can shake the foun dations of our biggest buildings, but they cannot touch the foundation of America. These acts shatter steel, but they cannot dent the steel of American resolve.America was targeted for attack because we’re the brightest beacon for freedom and opportunity in the world. And no one will keep that light from shining.

All New Yorkers, and Long Islanders in particular, can thank our Sen. Charles Schumer for his hard work in getting this his toric bill across the finish line, and for his com mitment to fight ing the effects of climate change that are all too familiar to us. As a lifelong South Shore resi dent, I see the clear, impactsadverseofthe cli mate crisis on local communities. The devastation of Superstorm Sandy may have been the most obvious, but higher tides resulting in increased local flooding, degraded bays, toxic tides, closed beaches, warm ing estuaries, fish kills, loss of shellfish, and increased home insurance are all part of our new reality. This transformative law will lower costs and create millions of good jobs while fighting climate change in the process. It will spur families to electrify buildings and transporta tion, with incentives that could add up to $28,500 to switch to efficient electric home appliances, install rooftop solar and buy elec tric vehicles. Families that take advantage of incen tives to electrify their homes and cars could save up to $1,800 per year in energy costs. An analysis commissioned by the BlueGreen Alliance from the University of Massa chusetts Amherst’s Political Economy Research Institute even found that the Inflation Reduction Act’s climate and clean energy investments will create more than 9 million jobs over the next decade — about 1 million jobs per year. The legislation invests in communi ties across the United States by growing our clean energy economy. It takes a

adrienneesposiTo thatAftermuch!).all, it is teachers who do the essential job of all schools: educating theThestudents.wayI see it, the role of adminis trators is basically that of “support personnel,” those whose job it is to help teachers do their jobs. Similar to school secretaries and custodians, administrators do an important job, but one that is only necessary, not suffi cient.For an analogous example, look at the world of professional sports. Coaches and managers usually aren’t paid as much as the players are. The classroom is teachers’ field and court.
To the JerryEditor:Kremer’s analysis of why there are too few teachers is incom plete. Teachers aren’t interested in returning to classrooms because they don’t want to teach critical race theory and gender dysphoria to elementary school students. That is why parents want books removed. Parents want their children to learn reading, writing, math, science and correct biology. There is nothing evil about removing these salacious books from classrooms and libraries. The removal of these books encourages teachers; it doesn’t discourage them. Good teachers will side with parents. In addition, teachers fear getting killed by a mentally disturbed student with a gun in a town where the police have been defunded. Also, some teach ers object to paying union dues collect ed to support socialist viewpoints. Low salaries also discourage teachers from returning to classrooms. Forcing teachers and students to wear masks is another disincentive. And accepting non-college graduates as teachers is another move toward the dumbingdown of America. Can’t you see it?

he Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 is quite simply a big deal. This new law provides around $370 billion to combat the climate crisis, the largest investment our nation has ever made in tackling climate change.
necessary step forward to clean up lega cy pollution by investing $60 billion in communities disproportionately impact ed by climate change, including funding for clean transportation methods and public health measures to improve air quality.These climate invest ments will also go a long way toward cutting climate pollution by an estimated 40 percent by 2030. An esti mate by the independent research firm Rhodium Group found that the Infla tion Reduction Act will put the U.S. on track to meet our nation’s reduction goals.But further action is still necessary. In the com ing years, Long Island residents can expect to face more frequent and pro longed heat waves, worsening air quali ty, more heat-related illnesses and deaths, rising sea levels, and intense storms and hurricanes. In the past 50 years, we have seen an increase of 2 degrees Fahrenheit in global tempera tures — a troubling trend that experts expect will only worsen by the 2080s. The Environmental Protection Agency foresees a rise in temperatures by 4.5 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit, putting our chil dren and grandchildren in harm’s way. To address the full scale of the cli mate crisis, the Biden administration and federal agencies must use all the tools at their disposal to implement solutions for pollution that will help meet the president’s pledge to cut cli mate pollution in half by 2030. Specifi cally, agencies must clean up power plants, trucks and cars, industrial sources, and other pollutants. In addi tion, Congress must continue to make progress on delivering a clean-energy future for the country. Climate action can’t wait. I applaud Majority Leader Schumer for his leader ship on climate action with the Inflation Reduction Act, and I join Long Island ers, and Americans, in calling on Con gress and President Biden to do all they can to limit the impacts of climate change on our cities and neighborhoods before it’s too late.
