Who needs an eye on the ball? Certainly no one on the RVC-based L.I. Bombers beep baseball team By ToM CARRoZZA tcarrozza@liherald.com

Imagine the fear of playing baseball with no sense of sight, instead having to trust your hearing and instincts to hit the ball, play the field and run the bases. That’s something the Rockville Centre-based Long Island Bombers do every time they step on the field — but for them, fear isn’t a factor. On June 25, the Bombers hosted other beep baseball teams from New Jersey, Boston and Philadelphia at Speno Memorial Park, in East Meadow, in the annual Beast of the

East tournament. Established in 2010, the tournament has given blind and visually impaired athletes the chance to compete at a high level. The large, heavy ball used in the sport emits repeated beeps that help batters track it and hit it. Pitchers are members of team that’s up at bat, which puts them in the unique position of wanting to give up lots of hits. The Bombers come from across Long Island, Queens and Manhattan to practice once a week at Reverend Morgan Days Park in Rockville Centre. Practice is especially important for bat-

the Bombers since they were founded in 1997. He grew up in Franklin Square, but recently moved to North Carolina, and made the trip north to pitch in the tournament last weekend. Joe “Lighting” De Jesus, 28, patrols left field for the Bombers. He has been with the team since he was 16 and the Bombers came to his camp for visually impaired athletes. De

Jesus was born with a rare hereditary eye disease called Leber congenital amaurosis, which affects about 1 in every 80,000 people and has left him mostly blind in his left eye. With a degree from St. John’s University, De Jesus now helps counsel visually impaired youth at Camp Helen Keller in Old Westbury. Continued on page 10

South Side grad is running across the country for a cause By ToM CARRoZZA tcarrozza@liherald.com

Rockville Centre native Greta Ohanian has already beaten cancer, and now the South Side High School alumna is embarking on a 4,000-mile cross-country run over the next month and a half during which she will tell her story and lend a hand at cancer centers from Baltimore to San Francisco. On Sunday, Ohanian and her seven-person team started their run from the Inner Harbor in Baltimore, the home city of the Ulman Foundation, which created an event called the 4K for Cancer. Ohanian and her teammates held hands in a “dedication cir-

cle” for those who are fighting or have fought cancer, as they will at each stop of the journey, and then dipped their toes into the Chesapeake Bay. Ohanian, 24, was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 2015, when she was a senior in high school. She was a member of the cross-country team, and had noticed that her times had begun to slow. “I was trying in my races and workouts, but I was getting a lot slower,” she recalled, blithely adding, “It turns out I just had a couple of tumors in my body.” She underwent cancer treatment at Winthrop University Hospital, and has been cancer-

the experiences of those in the clinic,” Greta’s mother, Ginnie Ohanian, said. “They’re all rooting for each other, and everybody’s process affects the other patients.” The 4K for Cancer was first organized in 2001, by students at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, and was acquired and expanded by the Ulman Founda-

tion in 2011 to include runners from all over the country. Since then, the event has raised more than $7 million for cancer research and treatment. Ohanian found out about the program on Facebook two years ago, and figured it would be the perfect fit for her, given her love of running and her experience Continued on page 12

St. Agnes Bazaar returns to huge fanfare

ROCKVILLE CENTRE HERALD — June 30, 2022

By TOM CARROZZA tcarrozza@liherald.com

From June 24 to 26, St. Agnes Cathedral brought back a hidden gem from its past: the bazaar. For the first time since the 1970s, the blacktop behind the elementary school was awash with neon lights, carnival games, food, music, and more as hundreds of residents celebrated one of the village’s largest gatherings since the Covid pandemic started in 2020. St. Agnes Cathedral’s rector Father Michael Duffy teamed up with some of the cathedral’s parishioners in March to plan this end of school year event for the whole community. T he young priest was inspired by a similar event while he was at Our Lady of Lourdes in Malverne. “This has been my dream,” Duffy said. “For years, I’ve wanted to have an event where people can come together and have a positive experience with the CARnivAl Rides And church but also to have fun together.” Duffy was praying for good weather and got exactly what he hoped for with three beautiful days in the sun. The bazaar planners reached out to carnival operators Newton Shows and the Town of Hempstead to provide the games, rides, and in the case of the latter the Showmobile for the musical acts. Those musical acts took no money from their appearances to help the bazaar bring in as much money as possible to help both the parish and the school continue their work in ministry and education, respectively. Rockville Centre resident Jonathan Crist organized several different acts, including his own band Tri State Alehouse and his sons James and Neal Crist with their friend Jack Megale, to provide music for the whole weekend. “I have deep respect for all these groups that wanted to do the right thing for the community and the parish. It’s a sacrifice and a financial cost for them,” Crist said. “But, if you see how everyone is enjoying themselves, there’s a smile on their faces and it’s worth it.” Pat O’Brien, a longtime resident and parishioner, served as the facilities manager and gathered volunteers. Dozens of local businesses also joined in the fun by providing tables and funds for the program, school, and cathedral. “It was very humbling to be part of this and to see the response we’ve had,” O’Brien said. “I was one of those kids running around the cathedral parking lot in the seventies, but we didn’t have nearly what we have here today with the rides, food, and live entertainment.” Already, O’Brien said the planners of this year’s return to the bazaar are formulating what can be done to keep this revamped tradition going.

Hochul banks on finding jobs across New York state There are more than 15,000 jobs — a record amount — posted on the state labor department’s seasonal job bank in a variety of industries from amusement parks to farms and restaurants and summer camps across every region. The free state resource allows businesses to list employment opportunities, and job seekers can look at part-time and seasonal jobs by location, company, job title and by searching through keywords. Guides for young people looking for work are available online to help them navigate what they need before filling out job applications. Divided by age groups — between 14 and 17, as well as 18 and 24 — the guides include information on obtaining working papers, the proper identification required, and even resume preparation. “With such an active job market, there is a wide variety of options to explore across the state,” Gov. Kathy Hochul said, in a release. “I encourage all job seekers to use the many resources the New York State Department of Labor offers to guide them to a job they love.” Part-time work is a vital component to help the state’s economy recover from the Covid pandemic, according to labor department commissioner Robert Reardon. It provides a boost to job seekers, such as helping them return to a previous career that might not have full-time posi-

KatHY HocHul tions available. It also allows those same job seekers to try a new career or a different position, or even learn new skills while working. Such work also offers flexible schedules to accommodate child or elder care needs, and provides support and job networking opportunities. “In this tight job market, we’re looking to make it as easy as possible for businesses with full-time, part-time or seasonal openings to connect with New Yorkers looking for work,” Reardon said, in the release. For the job bank, go to SeasonalWorks. labor.ny.gov. For the guides, go to DOL.ny.gov/youthages-14-17 or DOL.ny.gov/youth-ages-18-24. –Jeffrey Bessen

Americans have become accustomed, unfortunately, to seeing wars break out all over the world. We watch the news and think to ourselves, “oh those poor people.” The Russian invasion into the Ukraine was yet another example. However, one night the news showed a 12-year-old boy crossing into Poland by himself to go and stay with extended family living there. The next day, I looked into volunteer organizations in Poland to help with children in these situations. Through a Polish organization entitled Wolontariusze Ukraina CW Krakow, I was led to Global Volunteers. I put my name on the list and was emailed a few weeks later. On May 27, I arrived at the Warsaw Chopin Airport, was picked up with some other volunteers, and driven 90 minutes east to a small rural area outside the town of Siedlce. We were housed at Reymontowka House, built for the Rózanski’s family in the middle of the 19th century, about 110 miles from the Ukrainian border. My mornings began with teaching English at a Polish grammar school about 30 minutes away. The class had both Polish and Ukrainian children. The younger ones did not speak much English while the 7th and 8th graders knew a bit more. The younger ones were happy singing simple American songs while the older grades were very interested in American pop culture. During one fifth grade class, the children were shown unusual architectural buildings around the world and were then asked to draw their dream house.

One boy shared his drawing which looked like a castle, with the Polish flag on one turret and the Ukrainian flag on the other. He said it was to show the unity between the two countries. Afternoons we hosted the Ukrainian mothers and children at Reymontowka. They were being housed at different shelters and were dropped off. Some of the volunteers watched the children while others stayed with the mothers, giving them some free time to do whatever they wanted- baking, dancing, talking. One afternoon, a 14-year-old girl was holding a Magic 8 Ball, not knowing what it was. I told her if you ask it a question, tur n it over and it will respond. She then asked the Magic 8 Ball, “If I go back to Ukraine, will I be killed?” Another day I was sent to a shelter as they needed to have some furniture assembled. It was housed in an abandoned school building. To say it was bleak was an understatement, but the children and mothers were at least safe. While I assembled fur niture, many young children came into the room and would hug me and my fellow volunteers. As we spent the day assembling small storage closets and dressers, one mother took the time and baked bread for us. This had to be my toughest day. These are only a few of the heart rendering memories I bring home. Each mother and child have been affected by the invasion, having to leave their families, friends and careers. One note resonated with every mother I met- they just want to go home. They don’t know what they will find if they get home, but they do not care.

Teen scholars attend APS science convention Three Rockville Centre students had their work on display at the Association for Psychological Science Convention in Chicago from May 26 to 28. Sacred Heart Academy juniors and Rockville Centre residents Alison McManus, Sophia Paesano and Emma Smyth were among the 13 students selected to attend. McManus’s study was titled, “How Instructor Traits Influence Student Satisfaction & Success,” while Paesano’s was called, “Can Looking at a Glass Half-Full Leave You Empty?: Optimism, Stress, Coping Methods, & Wellness Outcomes Among High School Students,” and Smyth’s was on, “The Surprising Impact of Classroom Interruption on Teaching and Learning.” McManus plans to attend Villanova University after high school, Paesano plans to go to the University of Chicago and Smyth will study at Wake Forest University. “They work well doing research and they work very well under the metric of Dr. (Stephen) Sullivan who coached them,” SHA Principal Jean Amore said. “I like the topics they

chose, and they also have a moral compass to them too, which is nice because their research reflects their personal and their professional interests, but also what they’re concerned about today as witnesses to the world.” The APS started in 1988 with 400 dedicated psychological scientists and a mission to restore the public image of psychology as a science. Today, APS has an international membership and continues to combine traditional scientific values of rigor and transparency with innovative methods and practices in the conduct and application of research. The APS Convention hosts more than 4,200 psychological scientists and students annually, and more than 2,500 at its biennial International Convention of Psychological Science. And, throughout the year, APS shares its science in six of the most influential journals in the field. APS is also committed to the training and support of a new generation of psychological scientists and the engagement of the scientific community with cutting-edge tools and techniques.

Lawmakers want fentanyl tests in Narcan kits

Courtesy Office of the Nassau County Legislature Minority

LocaL government and health officials gathered to promote the inclusion of fentanyl testing strips in drug treatment kits used by first responders, including Keisha GrahamWilson of Central Nassau Guidance and Counseling Services, Dr. Sharon Harris of Substance Abuse Free Environments, Legislator Arnold Drucker, Legislator Debra Mulé, Claudia Rotondo of the Baldwin Council Against Drug Abuse, Jeff Stone of Project Help Long Island, and Legislator Delia DeRiggi-Whitton. to accelerate our collective efforts to prevent overdoses and save lives,” she added. Suffolk County passed similar legislation last December requiring the inclu-

sion of fentanyl testing strips in its Narcan kits. While not yet required in Nassau, Keisha Graham-Wilson, of the Hicksvillebased Central Nassau Guidance and

Counseling Services, said the agency has included fentanyl testing strips in its kits for the last several months. “These test strips are so important in terms of preventing overdoses,” GrahamWilson said. “We have individuals that have told us they are only using marijuana, but when we do toxicology, sometimes we have to tell them that the substance they are using is laced with fentanyl — and they are so shocked and surprised.” Other recovery advocates and community leaders expressed support for the proposal. “Providing these strips could be lifesaving,” said Claudia Rotondo, executive director of the Baldwin Council Against Drug Abuse. “It would give us the ability to test the remnants of the substance that was ingested to see if it was cut with fentanyl.” “The DEA warned several months ago that fentanyl was a driving force behind the majority of overdoses that have transpired in the last year,” said Dr. Sharon Harris, executive director of the Glen Cove-based Substance Abuse Free Environments. “This is an incredibly important piece of information that needs to be promoted to educate our youth and our families about what is going on.” The legislation is currently in committee, but could be part of the next available legislative agenda in mid-July. –Reine Bethany

ROCKVILLE CENTRE HERALD — June 30, 2022

Flanked by community leaders and recovery advocates on the front steps of the Theodore Roosevelt Executive & Legislative Building, county legislators unveiled proposed legislation recently intended to require the inclusion of fentanyl-detecting test strips in opioid overdose treatment kits distributed by Nassau County agencies. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency describes fentanyl as a synthetic opioid that is 50 to 100 times more potent than morphine. Consuming fentanyl-laced drugs — often unbeknownst to the user — has resulted in reported massive increases in overdose deaths among opioid abusers. Including fentanyl testing strips with these treatment kits — known by its brand name, Narcan — would serve as a low-cost way of potentially identifying tainted drugs and preventing accidental overdoses, county officials said. The strips would cost $1 each. “Fentanyl has dramatically raised the stakes of our ongoing battle to conquer the opioid drug addiction crisis,” Legislator Delia DeRiggi-Whitton said. “Distributing these strips will give residents another tool for preventing the devastation caused by fatal overdoses.” Using Narcan to help treat an opioid overdose has been life-saving, Legislator Debra Mulé said. “Pairing fentanyl detection testing strips with the Narcan kits we distribute is a common-sense way for Nassau County

She beat cancer, and is ready to help others do it continued from front page with cancer. Her cross-country journey is two years in the making: She was set to make the run in 2020, before the program went digital because of the coronavirus pandemic. But she has taken full advantage of the down time, running long distances through the village regularly. Daniel Ohanian, Greta’s father, cited his daughter’s energy as key to her decision to dedicate her time to those dealing with cancer. “I’m envious of her energy,” he said. “She’s got enough energy for three people. I don’t think she has limits.” At a send-off event on the village green on Maple Avenue on June 20, Ohanian’s family and friends gathered to see her off with a ceremony that her former Centre Stage teacher Ellen White described as a “big hug” from the village. White and Kathy Baxley, vice president of outreach at the Rockville Centre Breast Cancer Coalition, helped organize the event. “A lot of times when you’re doing a big run, you start to feel like you’re alone out there,” White said at the gathering, and then told Ohanian, “Just know that we’re all with you.” The few dozen attendees then joined Greta on a quick jog through the park. While attending South Side, Ohanian worked with White in the inclusive theater program Centre Stage. Baxley recalled seeing Ohanian taking part in the Centre Stage program while she was still being treated for cancer. As

someone who has tried to bring cancer awareness to the village through the coalition, Baxley said she was excited to see Greta’s story spark hope in those who are dealing with the disease. “With what she went through, the fact that she can take that and create something positive out of it is amazing,” Baxley said. “She’s taking her experiences and helping someone else get through it.” Baxley, who is also Rockville Centre’s deputy mayor, was joined by Mayor Francis Murray and village Trustee Katie Conlon to present Ohanian with a proclama-

tion. In addition to the work Ohanian will be doing to focus on cancer patients across the country, she is also raising funds for the Ulman Foundation’s work with young adult cancer patients. Donations have already passed the initial goal of $6,000, and will be welcomed as Ohanian continues her trek. She plans to post updates on her Instagram account, @coast2coast4cancer.

It started with a moment of silence. Then screams. And then it was a furious rage. That was the scene outside the Nassau County Courthouse in Mineola on Friday in the hours following the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization that is widely seen as overturning the U.S. Constitutional protection given to abortion access in 1973’s Roe v. Wade decision. The 6-3 ruling found in favor of a 2018 Mississippi state law that banned most abortion procedures after the first 15 weeks of pregnancy. When it came to Roe v. Wade — and a 1992 ruling in Planned Parenthood v. Casey that reinforced that original decision — the court was more divided, with Chief Justice John Roberts joining the liberal minority. But that wasn’t enough to maintain the constitutionality of abortion access, losing 5-4. Friday’s courthouse protest was organized by Long Island Rapid Response I Dissent Rally, which got a head start on the decision thanks to an unprecedented leak of the majority opinion last month. Rally organizers believe some 36 states will now make abortion illegal. New York will not be one of those states, however. The state legislature has already codified Roe v. Wade, keeping its abortion access intact. However, other states are expected to remove such access, including in pregnancies resulting from sexual assault and incest in states like Arkansas, Texas and Missouri. Many states pre-empted the decision with so-called “trigger bans,” making abortion illegal there the moment the court removed its Constitutional protection. “Oppressing access to reproductive health is a racial justice issue,” Nia Adams of the Long Island Progressive Coalition, told the courthouse crowd on Friday. “To add further insult to injury, the facts remain that Black maternity mortality rate in this country is four times higher for Black women than for our white counterparts.” Ellen Meister is no stranger to such protests. Hailing from Jericho, she attended her first march in 1982 in Washington. “It’s been a long time and I’m tired, but I’m here because it’s important,” Meister said. “I’m long past the age where it’s going to matter to me, but I care about women’s rights and bodily autonomy.” She held up a sign with a bloodied coat hanger, symbolizing how society can’t go back to barbaric and unsafe methods of abortions. “I wanted to make a really dramatic statement because this is reality,” Meister said. “People are going to die.” But not everyone was disappointed in the decision. U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin, who is seeking the Republican nomination for governor, called the court’s decision a “victory for life, for family, for the Constitution, and for federalism.” “Today is yet another reminder that New York clearly needs to do a much better job to promote, respect and defend

life,” the congressman added. Northwell Health released a statement soon after the decision, saying it was disappointed by the court’s ruling. “This decision is a setback for women’s reproductive health. Our concern as the region’s largest health care provider is that this ruling will succeed in ending access to safe abortions and disproportionately cause harm to those who already have limited access to health care.” Jay is worried about that as well. They held a sign at the rally declaring “abortion is trans health care,” telling a reporter how the transgender community continues to be excluded from the conversation. “We’re not only women, even though women are very important to the conversation, obviously,” Jay said, “but I think it’s important to remember our marginalized communities that’re disproportionally affected by this.”

PROtesteRs ChANted ‘my body, my choice’ and ‘vote them out’ to cars driving along Franklin Avenue. NIA AdAms fROm Long Island Progressive Coalition, speaks to some 200 people who gathered outside the Nassau County Courthouse in Mineola in the hours following the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision on abortion access.

There were opinions from all sides following last week’s U.S. Supreme Court decision on abortion rights, including fromn local lawmakers. “The public health ramifications of this ruling will be enormous, especially for economically disadvantaged women who already struggle with access to health care,” Nassau County legislator Kevan Abrahams, a Democrat, said in a statement. “If we are to stop the backward slide that we are now witnessing in our nation, we must organize, mobilize and vote, because our freedom and personal liberty are at the top of the ballot.” Anthony D’Esposito, a Republican on the Hempstead town council, told his Twitter followers that he was “strongly opposed” by the decision of state Democrats to “enact the nation’s most extreme abortion law, legalizing late-term and partial-birth abortion, allowing abortions to be provided by non-doctors,” and removing criminal penalties for what he described as “assaults on pregnant women,” causing “unborn child death.” “Today’s decision by the U.S. Supreme Court neither upends that unpopular law, nor affects the ability of any woman in New York to have an abortion,” D’Esposito added. “Here’s the truth,” said Josh Lafazan, a Democrat on the Nassau County Legislature, who is running for Congress. “Anti-choice extremists have demonstrated for years that they are willing to stop at nothing to get what they want.” –Karina Kovac

Protests erupt after Roe v. Wade falls

FirstNet donation gives Safety Town new life By STAFF REPORT FirstNet, Built with AT&T, has donated $110,000 to the Nassau County Police Department Foundation so it can renovate and refurbish its Safety Town education facility in East Meadow. First opened in 1972 and operated by the police foundation, Safety Town is an educational center and miniature village that provides children with a variety of public safety learning experiences. Each year, more than 10,000 third-graders from across Nassau County visit Safety Town, and are taught traffic, pedestrian and bicycle safety by police department crossing guards — first in a classroom, and then through a unique “hands-on” experience using bicycles and miniature electric vehicles. A 10-year analysis of bicycle accidents in Nassau found that children who attended Safety Town were 10 times less likely to be involved in an accident than a child who did not receive training, according to a release. FirstNet’s support allowed the police foundation to revitalize the aging center, to help it be ready in time for National Safety Month in June. This included removing and replacing more than 20 dilapidated buildings within Safety Town, adding professional landscaping throughout the campus, and repairing and beautifying other critical infrastructure elements.

FiRSTNET, BuilT By AT&T, donated $110,000 to the Nassau County Police Department’s Safety Town, helping provide the 50-year-old East Meadow facility with a much-needed upgrade to help teach children traffic safety for years to come. The new and improved Safety Town was carefully planned to ensure children can learn traffic safety for another 50 years, officials said.

“Safety Town is a very important piece of community training for the NCPD,” police commissioner Patrick Ryder said, in a release. “At 50 years old, it was in a

desperate need for a renovation.” FirstNet is a dedicated, nationwide communications platform designed to upgrade public safety communications with new capabilities that support incident response from first responders. FirstNet is designed to allow these public safety professionals to connect to the critical information they need every day, and in an emergency, help keep them — and their communities — safe. Advancing public safety was the core mission of FirstNet when the First Responder Network Authority and AT&T joined forces. “Now five years since its launch, that mission continues to inspire us to support initiatives and programs like Safety Town who share a commitment to creating safer communities and keeping our kids safe,” said Judy Cavalieri, vice president and general manager of AT&T New York. “We are proud to support this program.” “Having gone to Safety Town as a child, I am especially happy that the foundation is continuing this tradition,” said Eric Blumencranz, chair of the Nassau County Police Department Foundation. “We are grateful for the generous support from FirstNet, Built with AT&T, that brought this important community training facility into the 21st century. Safety Town is vital to building relationships between law enforcement and youth, and we are proud to be involved in such an important endeavor.”

Blakeman and Ryder warn about drowning With the summer season in full swing, Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman and Police Commissioner Patrick J. Ryder, are reminding county residents that water safety is something that all parents should be aware of. Statistically, drowning is the second leading cause of unintentional injury related death among children ages one to14. And it can happen very quickly and in swallow water. Less than one inch (2.5 centimeters) of water,

filled bathtubs, swimming pools, wading pools, hot tubs, and even buckets of water and sinks can be dangerous. To reduce your child’s risk of drowning in the pool implement these practices: ■ Never leave your children alone in or near the pool, even for a moment ■ Practice ‘touch supervision’ with children younger than five years of age- this means that the adult is within an arm’s

length of the child at all times ■ If you are planning a pool party, consider hiring a certified lifeguard to supervise ■ Put up a fence to separate your house from the pool. Most young children who drown in pools wander out of the house and fall into the pool. Install a fence at least 4 feet high around the pool and use gates that self-close and self-latch, with latches higher than your children’s reach. ■ The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that before you get into a pool, you must ensure that you can see the drain at the bottom of the pool’s deep end. After all, cloudy pool water can be a drowning hazard due to the lack of visibility. ■ Alarm the doors so that you are alerted if a child attempts to leave the house to enter the yard and also consider a pool alarm that alerts if someone enters the water ■ Keep rescue equipment (such as a pole with hook or life preserver) and a telephone by the pool ■ Do not use air-filled “swimming aids” as a substitute for approved life vests ■ Remove all toys from the pool after use so children are not tempted to reach for them ■ After the children are done swimming, secure the pool so they cannot get back into it ■ Place a safety cover on pool or hot tub when not in use and remove any ladders or steps used for access ■ A power safety cover that meets the standards of the American Society for Testing and Materials may add to the protection of your children but should not be used in place of the fence between your house and the pool.

a child’s body becomes attached to a drain because of the powerful suction of a pool or hot tub filtration system. The powerful suction can trap a child underwater or cause internal injuries. It can also occur when a child’s hair, swimsuit or jewelry becomes entangled in the drain. In 2007, the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act made it illegal to manufacture, distribute or sell drain covers that do not adhere to the standards for anti-entrapment safety set by the Consumer Product and Safety Commission. To combat entrapment: ■ Warn your children about the dangers of drain entrapment and teach them never to play near a pool drain, with or without a cover ■ Pin up long hair when in the water and remove loose parts of swimsuits and loose jewelry that can get ensnared ■ Equip pools and hot tubs with an antientrapment drain cover and an approved safety vacuum release system and regularly check that drain covers are secure and have no cracks ■ Be aware of public wading pools with missing or broken drain covers. Small children have direct access to the bottom drain in wading pools and sitting on open drains can cause serious internal organ damage From Memorial Day through Labor Day 2019, on average, 150 children under the age of 15 drowned in pools. So, remember, teaching your child how to swim doesn’t mean your child is safe in water. Most young children who drown in swimming pools were last seen in the home, had only been missing from sight for a matter of minutes, and were in the care of one or both parents at the time. There is no substitute for active adult supervision to prevent drowning. –Karina Kovac

Q. We’re retired, and live part of the year in Florida and part in New York. Eventually we plan to sell. Recently we had our kitchen redone, and had to make changes to a closet to make more room. Twenty-plus years ago we took down a wall and enlarged the kitchen, and I’m hearing that it was supposed to have a permit. The contractor was a big outfit that has commercials on TV, and I’m sure they got us a permit for the work. I understand that it may come up when we sell. Is this true and how do we know if there was a permit? We looked everywhere, but can’t find one? What should we do?

A. There is always the chance, especially in tighter economic times, that a lending bank inspector will be looking more carefully at what was done, in comparison with the original plans for the house. I often get desperate calls from people who’ve just been given two weeks to get a permit for something done many years ago. People generalonte eeper ly don’t understand how long each step in a legalization process takes. There is even the tease of an express permit by some building departments. I use the word tease because you and the architect are being set up for disappointment if the person reviewing the plans Tom Tripodi Tripodi | Shemtov Team finds one note they want added or a dimension, etc. Douglas Elliman Real I have been informed that when that happens, your Estate plans go into the pile with the rest of regular fil516-902-3497 ings and your express fee is history.

Crossword Puzzle

opinions

s a former elected official, I am frequently asked who has the toughest job in America. Most often, I answer either President Biden or New York City Mayor Eric Adams. But after watching three of the hearings of the Jan. 6 committee, I’ve decided that Attorney General Merrick Garland has the most difficult job in America. Over the next six to nine months, Garland must decide whether he will charge former President Donald Trump with a variety of election JERRY law criminal violations. No former KREMER president has ever faced criminal charges related to their actions while in office. President Nixon was close to being indicted for a variety of federal crimes in 1974, but that August he announced his resignation. There is no doubt that by the time the House Select Committee on the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol finishes its witness presentations, it may have enough criminal evidence to turn over to the attorney general, with a recommendation that he take formal action against

Trump. But charging a former president with a crime could further divide an already bitterly divided country, and might inflame the relative handful of crazies who are ardent Trump supporters. As the hearings come to a close, the media will focus on the fate of the former president, but there are many other people who may wind up in handcuffs in a federal courtroom. The logical targets could be the large group of people who claimed to be presidential electors for Trump in Arizona, Georgia and Michigan, states that Biden won in the 2020 election. Their fake certificates were even sent to the National Archives. The next potential defendants could be former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and attorney John Eastman. Guliani and his team appeared in multiple courtrooms throughout the country, falsely arguing that the election had been stolen, but those arguments were hollow and failed in more than 60 cases. Eastman is alleged to have created the plot to overturn the counting of the ballots on Jan. 6, which he peddled to Trump on many occasions after the election. Eastman has since invoked the Fifth Amend-

ment more than 100 times. Are there others who could wind up wearing prison jumpsuits? During questioning at the fourth Jan. 6 committee hearing, the names of two Republican members of Congress surfaced. A staff member of Sen. Ron Johnson, of Wisconsin, and Rep. Andy Biggs, of Arizona, were alleged to have asked Vice President Mike Pence to accept a list of fake electors and reject legitimate electors. Both Johnson and Biggs could be charged with fraudulent efforts to overturn a legitimate election. They may be joined by at least six other House members, whose names will be made public in the coming weeks. Garland is wrestling with the right and wrong of charging a former president with federal crimes, along with the national implications of such a decision. But I would guess that if the tables were turned, and the election manipulation had been done by a former Democratic president, a Republican attorney general, such as William Barr, would please his client, the Republican president, by moving ahead with a criminal case. Is there another scenario that all of us may have overlooked?

ill Attorney General Garland charge a former president with federal crimes?

A federal grand jury has been impaneled in Fulton County, Georgia, and has heard testimony from Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, whom Trump asked to “find 11,780 votes,” which would make Trump the winner in Georgia. The request by Trump could be found to be a criminal attempt to change the results of the election, and subject him to criminal charges. No matter what your political leanings are, the Jan. 6 investigation has unveiled cold, hard facts about how Trump conducted himself in the days and weeks after his loss in November 2020. While the vast majority of Americans were going about their business, a small group of attorneys and elected officials were working around the clock to burn the Constitution and turn this country over to a president who refused to accept his defeat. In the end, there may not be jail terms for anyone but the rioters at the Capitol, but it is impossible to whitewash history, no matter how hard the Republicans try. Jerry Kremer was a state assemblyman for 23 years, and chaired the Assembly’s Ways and Means Committee for 12 years. He now heads Empire Government Strategies, a business development and legislative strategy firm. Comments about this column? JKremer@liherald.com.

Engaged! Finding love in the pandemic.

illybee and Don are tying the knot. In an unintended romantic consequence of the pandemic, my husband and Lillybee, daughter of Sinbad el Amante Suave and Ivy of Chickadee Cotons, are making it official. After nearly three years of relative isolation, with no doggie play dates and no dog park, they are inseparable. Their path forward: together. As the third leg of this domestic canine cluster, I will speak now in protest or be comRAnDi pelled to forever KREiss hold my peace (an unlikely scenario). For starters, Lillybee’s pedigree is much finer than my husband’s. She came from a dam and sire raised by boutique breeders in Oregon and Arizona. Don is from Brooklyn. His parentage goes back to various anonymous Hungarian horse traders who sailed to America in steerage. Lillybee flew first class from Arizona. And she can trace her heritage back to great-grandparents Fozzie T. Bear of Amanda Sue

Cotons and Yankee Doodle Dandelion of Windy Hills Cotons. Then there is the age disparity. Don is 76, and Lillybee is 35 in dog years. She weighs 13 pounds. He weighed that at birth. In the beginning we were the classic trio, older couple and new pup. Truthfully, we figured she would be our last pup, given the average human life span and the projected life span of a small dog. We hoped to pretty much finish up at the same time. Lillybee, like her cohorts, is a personality. She raises her nose in the air and tests the wind. She assesses which advantages she can push. She’s clever, that girl, and without ethics of any kind. I guess you could say she is purely transactional. Give her something and you get something. When my husband was working and I was at home doing the dog training, Lillybee learned to sit for a treat, lie down, come when called and go to her place on a mat in the corner of the kitchen while we ate our meals. She never “demand” barked, which is an obnoxious trait wherein a dog barks loudly and inces-

santly in your face for something — food or attention or a walk. Not acceptable! The idea is that after training for good behavior with tons of treats to sweeten the pot, the dog will adopt the good behavior even without a treat. It did not take long for us to realize that Lillybee does nothing for nothing. If you want her to sit and you aren’t prepared to offer her a sizable piece of dried sweet potato, you are barking up the wrong tree. Training her was exhausting. You could almost hear her thinking, “I don’t have to sit. But I’ll do it if you give me one of those compressed chicken weenies.” She was always an alpha dog, and she landed with us, a Triple A alpha couple. Still, her life in our home was rewarding and fun and fully inclusive of us as a trio. Then the pandemic hit, and we and she were completely isolated. Don and I spent many more hours at home. He retired. We didn’t travel much, and she had been accustomed to riding in airplanes zipped into a canvas bag under the seat. She was a get-up-and-go dog. At the beginning of the pandemic,

s the isolation deepened, the husband and the dog became inseparable.

there were rumors that dogs could carry the virus and advice not to let them into a sick room. We didn’t know how strict to be, so we just kept her inside with us, except for walks. There was a lot of togetherness; since we couldn’t see our grandkids, Lillybee was the main event. She began to “demand” bark. Don began to give her extra treats. Not just chicken weenies and dried sweet potato, but shreds of salmon at $18 a pound and the occasional peanut. I’m not saying he’s not a naturally lovable guy, but soon Lillybee would not leave his side. No going to her “place” during meals. He pulled out a chair for her at the table and she would gaze longingly into his eyes, clearly praying for him to drop a crumb. He started to think it was personal, not realizing that he’s only as good as his supply of dried liver. He decided to increase her stash of toys, even buying two stuffed duckies in case one of them got dirty. Then, I heard him call her “darling,” as in “Darling, want a belly rub?” That was when I realized this wasn’t just a fling. I heard they’re registered at Bloomingdales. Copyright 2022 Randi Kreiss.

The Declaration of Independence was first published on July 6, 1776, in a newspaper, the Pennsylvania Evening Post. We are proud to commemorate that high point in American journalism by reprinting that historic document.

hen in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world. e has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only. He has called together legislative bodies at

places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their Public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures. He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness of his invasions on the rights of the people. He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected, whereby the Legislative Powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within. He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws of Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands. He has obstructed the Administration of Justice by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary Powers. He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance. He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislature. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil Power. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their acts of pretended legislation: For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us: For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from Punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States: For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world: For imposing taxes on us without our consent: For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury: For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences: For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies: For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the forms of our Government: For suspending our own legislature, and declaring themselves invested with Power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever. He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.

He is at this time transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy of the Head of a civilized nation. He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions. In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free People. Nor have We been wanting in attention to our British brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends. e, therefore, the representatives of the United States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the state of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the Protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our Sacred Honor.

The Declaration was signed first by John Hancock, president of the Continental Congress, and then by 55 others representing the 13 original states.

oter fraud has been around since the creation of democracy, but that doesn’t make it right or mean we should allow it to continue or expand. Free and fair elections are the foundation of any free, self-governing country. Without them, you have nothing except the tyranny imposed by those who successfully manipulate the electoral process. The latest assault on our voting mechanisms has a long history. You could buy a vote with a round of drinks as practiced by the New York City DemoRONALD J. crats of Tammany of the 1880s. ROSENBERG Hall And voting from the grave? Louisiana’s governor of the 1930s, Huey Long, reportedly said, “When I die, I want to be buried in Louisiana, so I can stay active in politics.” Others have used a variety of frauds, including bribes, intimidation and poll taxes to redirect election outcomes. But in the 21st century, we are facing a far more insidious and systemic corruption of our balloting. Today, would-be electoral fraudsters want to entirely abolish the requirement of voting in person with identification, in favor of allowing voting

by mail or an absentee ballot merely for the asking. Requiring ID and other laws designed to ensure the integrity of elections do not suppress the vote, as President Biden and others have falsely asserted. Last month’s Georgia primary saw record turnout for early voting — nearly triple the level in 2018 level and 212 percent more than in 2020, a presidential election year. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul signed a bill earlier this year that, dangerously, allows New Yorkers who are concerned about getting Covid to vote this year by absentee ballot. Some political pundits believe that, much like their clumsy and illegal gerrymander of election districts, this is one more instance of those on the left seeking to undermine the integrity of our elections so they can gain a political advantage at the expense of democracy. It’s not as if New York voters aren’t wise. They sent a loud and unequivocal message last November when they voted down a proposed constitutional amendment that would have allowed no-excuse absentee voting. As the political cycle heats up with a double-barreled primary calendar, it is important to understand that voting by mail and unlimited absentee voting is a

LEttERS Moved by tragedy to poetry

To prevent strife Promoting grief A task accomplished by the stroke of man Nestled pinnacle not giving a damn

To the Editor: My husband and I very much enjoy Randi Kreiss’s writing in the Herald. I am a 67-year-old semi-retired biomedical research immunologist who refuses to “retire.” I am no longer doing bench research, and am now involved in global health, community engagement — and creative writing. Some of my pieces have been featured in low-profile venues like medical school and community arts publications. Like so many others, I was devastated after the mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas. My emotions drove me to write this poem, which I entitled “Failure.”

Deceptively powering pro-life Children suffering the plight

FRANCES SANTIAGO-SCHWARz, Bayville Failure Failure to protect the sacred nest Squashing laughter with a single burst Cries of joy no longer physical Now deep in the soul, inextinguishable Remembering loss of one so beautiful A single burst multiplied by many From a haunted soul on the devil’s journey Failure to validate loss of life

serious threat that undermines confidence in the integrity of the outcome. “Ballot harvesting” has become a thing: Paid operatives are sent door to door, offering to transport individuals’ mail-in ballots to the Board of Elections. One suspects that these concerned defenders of democracy may well check your party affiliation before deciding whether the next stop is the ballot box or the dumpster. In California, no less, the practice was recognized as being so egregious to democracy that after it was made legal in 2016, it was subject to serious restrictions. California “has since made it illegal to get paid per ballot collected,” The Washington Post reported, “and for employers to ask employees to bring their ballots into their workplace.” Another dimension to ballot harvesting that harms the integrity of absentee voting is the ability of the paid operative to make a last-minute argument about why you should vote one way or another. This kind of pressure is why our polling places have restrictions on how close candidates can campaign. If our democracy is to stand the test of time, the Covid-imposed ability to vote remotely needs to be curtailed and

restricted to those who legitimately cannot make it to the polling place on Election Day. It isn’t too much of an ask for a concerned and engaged citizenry to find the will and the means to physically make it to the ballot box one day a year. Those who argue that these options increase participation in our election process will have to make a far more cogent case, because the jury is still out on that claim. An analysis by the Connecticut Mirror suggested that absentee voting has not brought a significant spike in participation. The Public Policy Institute of California reported a similar finding. So one can legitimately ask, what is the real reason to expand absentee and remote voting, who is pushing that agenda, and why? As we reflect on the priceless gift of democracy, we should consider who should be given the unchallenged right to offer absentee ballots. The immediate and obvious answer would be our fellow Americans in uniform, who are defending the nation. Those patriots earn the right to an absentee ballot with their blood and valor. What’s the left’s excuse? Ronald J. Rosenberg has been an attorney for 42 years, concentrating in commercial litigation and transactions, and real estate, municipal, zoning and land use law. He founded the Garden City law firm Rosenberg Calica & Birney in 1999.

A queen? No, but more British TV! To the Editor: My wife and I enjoyed Randi Kreiss’s column “Is our democracy becoming a royal pain?” (June 16-22). I don’t think we Americans necessarily need a king or queen, but everyone would benefit from more British television! We began subscribing to streaming Acorn and BritBox several months ago, and we watch the same mysteries Randi mentioned, plus some others. We currently alter nate between “Vera,” “A Touch of Frost,” “Midsomer Murders,” “Inspector Morse” and “Foyle’s War.” “Foyle’s War” is particularly interesting, as it introduces the viewer

to many aspects of wartime, home front Britain. We also devoured the whole “Shetland” series quickly — we traveled to Shetland and Fair Isle a few years ago, so the series was a must-watch for us. Again, thanks, Randi, for the thought-
