Manorhaven eyes ban on cell nodes

MOVIN’ ON UP

Would permanently bar devices, inviting potential lawsuit from ExteNet

BY J E S S I C A PA R K S The Manorhaven Board of Trustees is planning to implement a permanent ban on the installation of cell nodes in the village – despite the potential for inviting a lawsuit.

In proposing the ban, Mayor Jim Avena said at last Wednesday’s meeting, “Why don’t we just prohibit it and see where the ball falls.”

Currently, the village has a temporary moratorium banning the installation of cell nodes that is set to expire Oct. 25.

A number of villages on the North Shore of Nassau County are receiving building applications for multiple small cell devices throughout their municipalities.

The applications are being filed by ExteNet, an Illinois-based infrastructure provider that is contracted to install the cell nodes by Verizon to improve the wireless service provider’s 4G network.

Municipalities have had different responses. The Village of Lake Success denied nine of 13 cell nodes in May, which has been met with a lawsuit by ExteNet. Earlier this month, the Village of Flower Hill denied each of 18 applications.

Despite there not having been any applications filed in the village as of yet, Manorhaven’s village attorney, Jonathan Fielding, suggested that the village put in place a permanent resolution.

While Manorhaven does not have any nodes in the village, there is a cell tower installed on Pequot Avenue, a residential neighborhood. The tower was approved by the village in 2007 when Nicholas Capozzi served as mayor.

The cell tower was met with lawsuits from the village administration that followed Capozzi, as well as organized protests that brought out hundreds of residents, according to news reports.

Chabad of Port seeks ‘judgment-free’ zone Grows with multidenominational appeal B Y J E S S I C A P A R K S “it’s an Orthodox synagogue Inside the walls of Chabad of Port Washington there is a judgment-free zone. It is a house of worship where all people can come together to pray without judgment of one another’s piety.

Rabbi Shalom Paltiel and Sara Paltiel opened Chabad of Port Washington 28 years ago.

They are one of 5,000 families in the world who have opened chabad houses as part of a Hasidic Jewish movement that became widespread in 1951 under the leadership of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson.

Rabbi Shalom Paltiel joked that when people ask what kind of synagogue it is, he tells them

with a Conservative service for Reform Jews.”

He said that aside from its accepting environment, chabad provides a spiritual experience that is rooted in authenticity.

“There is a lot of spirituality,” he said. “A lot of emotion, people will sit and cry in our service; modern, secular Jews who are living the American dream in Sands Point who never believed that religion would ever mean anything to them.”

The Paltiels said that many come to chabad in search of a fresh look at Judaism that differs from their experiences at Orthodox temples or more modern, fancy synagogues.

Arnie Herz, a Port Washington lawyer and president of the American Jewish Committee’s Long Island chapter, was one of those people back in 1998 when he was sitting in the last row of the chabad house in search of a greater meaning.

He grew up in the Five Towns and went to a conservative shul. After he graduated from Hebrew school and had his bar mitzvah, Herz said, Judaism began to slowly fall out of his life.

While playing basketball at the University of Michigan, Herz blew a hole in his aortic heart valve.

He was diagnosed with conContinued on Page 74

Curran calls for probe of copter use Floral Park police, school superintendent use craft for an aerial view of Belmont Park

BY TOM M CC A RT HY

County Executive Laura Curran has called for an investigation into whether the use of a Nassau County police helicopter Sept. 5 to give Floral Park police and a local school superintendent an aerial view of the Belmont Arena project was a “misuse of police resources.”

“The County Executive and the Police Commissioner had no prior knowledge of this helicopter flight with a civilian passenger,” Christine Geed, a Curran spokeswoman, said in a statement. “County Executive Curran has called for a full investigation of this apparent breach of established police protocol by the Village of Floral Park and any misuse of police resources.”

Floral Park Police Commissioner Stephen McAllister said in an interview that the ride was “reconnaissance of the area” to investigate potential evacuation routes from the Floral Park-Bellerose School.

He said that a Floral Park police lieutenant and Floral ParkBellerose School Superintendent

The Village of Floral Park recently filed to seek judicial review of the approval of the Belmont Park redevelopment project in the state Supreme Court.

Kathleen Soittle rode with Nassau County aviation officers.

McAllister said that Floral Park police had made a call to request the helicopter and were invited to ride on it the same day.

The school is located near the parking lot for the recently

approved project, which will include a 19,000-seat arena for the New York Islanders, 350,000 square feet of shops and restaurants, a hotel containing 250 rooms and parking on 43 acres of vacant state-owned property at Belmont Park.

“We were asking a lot of questions that were not getting answered,” McAllister said. “It’s a good use of police resources to get answers.”

Floral Park Mayor Dominick Longobardi said in an interview that the ride was made in “good

faith,” saying, “I would sincerely hope that the county executive would share our safety concerns for the children of Nassau.”

The Nassau County Police Department did not respond to requests for comment.

At a meeting Tuesday, the Floral Park village board said that a planned Sept. 16 meeting about the project with state Budget Director Robert Mujica and other representatives had been called off due to litigation filed by the village.

Longobardi said the village was alerted about the cancellation on the morning of the meeting, with Cuomo officials citing the pending Article 78 litigation filed by the village against Empire State Development, the state agency overseeing the project.

“On advice of counsel, administration officials did not meet with the village on Monday. We will review the complaint and determine when it is appropriate to meet, and with whom,” said Cuomo spokesman Jason Conwall.

Curran submits tentative budget $3.56 billion budget sees an increase of 2 percent, or $72 million, from current budget

BY J E S S I C A PA R K S

Nassau County Executive Laura Curran submitted a tentative budget for fiscal year 2020 on Tuesday that has no property tax hike.

The $3.56 billion budget is an increase of 2 percent, or $72 million, from the projected budget for the current fiscal year.

Curran said that while the budget is fiscally responsible, it allows the county to invest to improve housing, sustainability and transportation, and increase efforts to heighten collaboration with towns and villages to save taxpayer dollars.

The county executive’s budget anticipates growth of 1.9 percent in the county’s sales tax revenue, which is a “conservative” projection, her office said in a news release.

Curran’s budget requires approval from the Nassau County Legislature.

Presiding Officer Richard Nicolello, who heads the Republican majority in the Legislature, said in an email: “The Majority will closely review the County Executive’s budget to ensure it is fiscally responsible and does not put additional burdens on Nassau taxpayers.”

Nassau County Executive Laura Curran One investment in the budget the county highlighted included the Belmont Park Arena, which is expected to generate $2.7 billion in economic rev-

enue and 3,200 permanent full-time jobs. For Nassau alone, it is projected to bring in $25 million in new tax revenue.

Other noted investments include new concession services at county parks and seeking advertising opportunities and naming rights at park facilities to generate revenue.

The budget includes further investment in resurfacing the county’s roads, construction of the new county police training facility, a new family court and a project to clean up the western bay marshes between Long Beach and the mainland.

The county executive also proposed to centralize accounts receivable in the treasurer’s office. Currently, the duty is shared by multiple departments, she said, and centralizing the process would result in increased collections, standardized processing, timely posting, improved customer service and reduced costs.

Curran also proposed funding to implement electronic payment processing for county vendors, which she said would provide the county with extra control and management of cash.

The tentative budget includes a rise

in funding for the Office of Housing, which would allow the hiring of three new full-time staff members and to allocate more toward transportation to expand Nassau Inter-County Express bus services.

The county executive plans to increase efforts to determine where collaboration may save taxpayer dollars, according to her news release. The savings generated through sharing services may be eligible for a one-time match from the state.

Money for the Department of Public Works to hire two new employees to help in the review of development proposals is also included in Curran’s tentative budget. The two employees would aid in expediting a critical review of the county’s development approval process.

The county will implement a new sewer tax in 2020, under which some property taxpayers will see an increase in their sewer tax and others will see a decrease. The county executive said that the rebalancing plan is to correct an error made under former Nassau County Executive Edward Mangano’s administration where expenses were incorrectly distributed among the county’s three sewer zones.

LIRR to receive $5.7B in improvements ‘Main Line expansion’ and ‘East Side Access’ set for completion by 2022 for MTA Capital Plan

BY R O S E W E L D ON

PHOTO BY REBECCA KLAR

A third track running from Hicksville to the Floral Park Long Island Rail Road station (pictured) will be among the projects completed as part of the MTA’s proposed 2020 capital plan.

The Long Island Rail Road will receive over $5.7 billion worth of improvements as part of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s largest capital plan in its history, the MTA said Tuesday.

The plan, which will span from 2020 to 2024 and cost an estimated $51.5 billion altogether, allows for the completion of two overarching projects by December 2022, as well as general improvements to LIRR stations.

One of the two projects is the Main Line expansion, which adds nearly 10 miles of a third track to the Main Line corridor from Hicksville to Floral Park. The track will pass through New Hyde Park, Garden City, Mineola, Carle Place and Westbury.

The second of the projects is “East Side Access,” which will allow LIRR patrons to access the east side of Manhattan through an eight-track terminal at Grand Central Station.

The project, the MTA says, will serve approximately 162,000 commuters per day and save an average of 40 minutes on a commute.

“These projects, along with Ja-

F312:C0&/53B78<& !18<&G/C.8:& /78=5&HIIJ,

maica Capacity Improvements, will enable a 60 percent increase in reverse commute and a 50 percent increase in peak service between Manhattan and Long Island,” the MTA said of the improvements.

In addition to its overarching projects, the LIRR will receive track upgrades, updated signals and switches, improvements to station accessibility, 20 new coaches and more than 10 locomotives for its rolling stock.

LIRR President Phil Eng said that the new plan will continue the “modernization of the LIRR.” “Not only will it enable us to continue to accelerate our systemwide core improvements to service safety, accessibility, reliability and comfort, it will enable us to sustain and grow Long Island’s economy and quality of life for the entire region,” Eng said.

The 2020 plan is set to be reviewed by the MTA’s board of trustees on Sept. 25, and would be submitted to the MTA Capital Program Review Board, composed of representatives from the governor’s office, the state Senate and Assembly, and the office of New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, if approved.

Celebrating 135 with ‘L.I.’s largest quilt’

BY TOM M CC A RT HY The Mineola-based nonprofit Family and Children’s Association has been around long enough to navigate its way through the Great Depression and postWorld War II building boom in Levittown, President and CEO Jeff Reynolds said at the group’s anniversary event on Friday.

The organization celebrated its 135th anniversary at the Mineola Athletic Association’s baseball field.

On the field before the ceremony, “Long Island’s largest quilt” was unveiled.

The quilt was created for the association’s Safe and Warm, LI’s Largest Quilt Campaign, spokeswoman Lindsey Mastin said.

The 45-by-81-foot quilt, she said, is to raise awareness about teenagers who grow up without stable families.

“Last night, close to 2,000 Long Island teens slept in a park, near the boardwalk, or sought warmth and shelter in an LIRR station or a bus terminal,” Mastin said. “Because everyone deserves a place to sleep, FCA created Safe and Warm, LI’s Largest Quilt Campaign. The Safe and Warm campaign brings Long Islanders together as they demonstrate compassion and unity by way of the creative arts. ” Mastin said the quilt was signed by the likes of musician Billy Idol, Gov. Andrew Cuomo and actor Ralph Macchio.

According to Mastin, the baseball field where the ceremony was hosted is where

The Family and Children’s Association unveiled “Long Island’s largest quilt” for its 135th anniversary. it all began for the organization in 1884, when it was founded as a home for orphaned children.

“There are very few things in life that last for 135 years and very few organizations or companies or clubs that manage to hit 135 years steadily,” Reynolds said.

“I think one of the things that carried us through is our commitment to helping oth-

ers.”

Reynolds said that the field was given to the Village of Mineola in 1950 on the condition that it would continue to use the site for the establishment of a children’s park, playground, recreational center or any similar type of establishment for the benefit of local children.

The nonprofit organization celebrated

its 135th birthday one week late due to rainy and windy weather Sept. 6 and if the event had been held on the original date the quilt would have become “Long Island’s largest kite,” Reynolds said.

Reynolds said that the organization’s major objectives recently have been caring for refugee children and people affected by Continued on Page 85

Roslyn scandal film bought by HBO

BY R O S E W E L D ON “Bad Education,” the film based on the embezzlement scandal that plagued the Roslyn school district in the early 2000s, has been purchased for U.S. distribution by premium cable channel HBO for a reportedly record sum.

The film was bought after a series of screenings at the Toronto International Film Festival, where it premiered on Sept. 8. Based on former Roslyn Superintendent Frank Tassone’s embezzlement of $11.7 million over the course of his 12-year term, the film stars “Logan” actor Hugh Jackman as Tassone, features Oscar winner Allison Janney as Assistant Superintendent and scandal bookmaker Pamela Gluckin, and was written and co-produced by Roslyn alumnus Mike Makowsky.

The trade paper Variety reports that “Bad Education” is being acquired for “just under $20 million,” making it the largest deal of the year for a Toronto International Film Festival premiere and one of the largest in the festival’s history.

Strange lessons from EWSD

W

e wonder what lesson the East Williston school district is trying to teach its students in trying to build a 6-foot fence around the North Side School Elementary school without the approval of the Village of East Williston.

And for that matter what lesson it is offering to other school districts.

A Nassau County Supreme Court judge issued a temporary restraining order in August on the construction of the fence in East Williston at the request of the Village of East Williston.

The village said the fence violates village zoning laws and might impede access to the property in cases of emergencies.

The village also said the school district was subject to village zoning laws.

But the district began construction in August anyway without the village’s approval.

The case between the village and the school is scheduled to be heard on Sept. 25, with taxpayers footing the bill for both sides.

The school district is seeking to build the fence based on the advice of the Nassau County Department of Homeland Security, the Nassau County Police Department and New York State Insurance Reciprocal to better protect its students.

“The ability to have a few extra minutes where school officials notice an intruder trying to climb a fence to begin a lockdown and call police can be key in the case of danger,” the district quoted Todd Atkin of Homeland Security as saying.

We’ll set aside how crazy the country’s gun laws have to be to make Atkins’ advice sound sen-

sible and address the school district’s behavior.

The school district denies having done anything wrong.

School board President Mark Kamberg recently said public school districts like East Williston only have to file their permits with the state and are not bound by village zoning laws.

“We are in full compliance with the law,” he said. “We apply for our permits through the state at the Education Department as this is a public institution of the state.”

The district backed up Kamberg’s claim in a lengthy PowerPoint presentation also intended to demonstrate the school district’s transparency in approving the project.

But Kamberg’s claim that the district was not bound by government agencies other than the state Education Department was brought into question. By the state Education Department. In May – four months before the board meeting in September.

“Please be advised that the State Education Department’s approval of a school district building project is separate and distinct from any local zoning approval which may still be required,” Rosanne Groff, coordinator of the Office of Facilities Planning, wrote in a letter dated May 7.

To support her case, Groff cited a court decision involving a school district and a town as an apparent example of a school district being required to comply with a municipality’s zoning laws.

“As such,” she added, “the district is advised to resolve any potential local zoning issues related to this project directly with the Village of East Williston.”

Let’s recap with a quick quiz.

“The State Education Department’s approval of a school district building project is separate and distinct from any local zoning approval which may still be required” means: a. The East Williston School District can do anything it wants once the state Education Department gives the go-ahead on a project. b. The East Williston School District needs the approval of East Williston village trustees.

The East Williston School District answered a. – that the Education Department’s approval was all that was needed, apparently basing the decision on the state saying local approval “may” be required rather than “is” required.

In a letter she said was intended to clarify her earlier letter, Groff confused things further in September by writing, “My letter was not intended to direct or admonish the District and took no position as to whether or not local zoning approval was required under the circumstances.”

Keep in mind that Kamberg reported at the September board meeting that the district had al-

REPORTERS Jessica Parks, Tom McCarthy Rose Weldon, Robert Pelaez

Correspondence found on the website appears to show that neither the school district nor the state Department of Education was as transparent as claimed.

In one instance, East Williston Village Attorney Jeffrey Blinkoff complained to the state education commissioner on March 22 that after the school district refused to submit the proposal to the village, the village filed a Freedom of Information Law request with the state asking for a copy.

The village was told, Blinkoff said, that it had to pay $139 to cover the cost of copying which they paid.

Blinkoff said the village had not received the records as of April 16 only to find out on the state Education Department website that the project had been approved by the state on April 11.

The East Williston school district along with the state Education Department have offered many lessons in this approval process.

We suggest one more. Stop wasting taxpayer money in court, meet with village officials some more and do what you need to do to comply with the village code.

ready spent $58,000 in legal fees.

We know about the two letters from the state from a PowerPoint presentation prepared by the district explaining the project and touting its openness. It presents several instances in which school district officials met with village representatives to discuss their concerns.

Bu the issue of the village having a say over the project does not appear in the actual 20-page PowerPoint deck.

Instead, the information is available as a link online at the bottom of the presentation on the school district’s website titled “For a chronological timeline of events please click here.”

You then need to go through a four-page chronology and click on various links. Groff ’s May 7 letter was titled “District Receives letter from Office at Facilities Planning.”

For most, finding this information is kind of like going on an Easter egg hunt, only harder. It certainly does not qualify for the transparency the district was touting, though apparently it was an easier process than endured by the village.

KREMER’S CORNER

Cuomo does big things at tough time

I

would guess that if you took a poll of Long Island residents the vast majority of them have never heard of Robert Moses. A few might connect him to the Robert Moses Bridge in Suffolk County but most will give you a blank stare.

Now, 38 years after his death, at age 93, it is worth revisiting some of the history of a man who re-shaped our region and made it into a modern wonder.

If you are a student of history than you are familiar with Robert Caro’s book, “The Power Broker,” which took seven years to write because of Caro’s painstaking attention to facts and detail.

If you boiled down the book into simple numbers Moses built 658 playgrounds, 416 miles of parkways and 13 bridges. He was known to be a good listener but when it came to getting things done but no one got in his way.

Pick any public works project in the downstate region and it wouldn’t be there without Robert Moses making it happen.

His achievements included the Southern and Northern State parkways, Wantagh Parkway, Meadowbrook Parkway and the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge (Tri-Boro). As for some other bridges you can credit Moses with the Throggs Neck, Bronx Whitestone, Henry Hudson and the Verrazano Narrows Bridge. One could write an extra-long essay to cover all of his other achievements.

The miracle of the life of Robert Moses is that if you attempted today to build any one of the projects that I have listed, chances are none of them could be completed due to community opposition.

Long Island could desperately use a bridge linking its shores with Connecticut. That idea was tried in the 1970s when the Rye-to-Oyster Bay Bridge was proposed.

Sadly, Gov. Carey found out how many influential people owned homes in the path of the proposed project and it soon became dead on arrival.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo, in a more modest but significant

JERRY KREMER Kremer’s Corner

way, has gotten a number of projects completed that I never thought could happen. The third track proposal for the Long Island Rail Road is a good example of the governor’s determination to get a project moving.

I know from my first-hand experience, how hard it is to get officials in nine villages to agree to support any public works proposal. I was involved with that project at the outset and it ran into a great deal of stubborn-

ness at a time when grade crossing elimination and better train service was badly needed.

The governor took on the challenge of getting the third track plan approved by all of the villages along the right-of-way.

His people and the LIRR staff, went area by area, assessed the needs of the locals and came up with plans that gave them some community benefits and dealt with their concerns.

One of the planned grade crossings has already been completed and four are moving along nicely. A number of people have died over the years attempting to cross the active tracks and no doubt, these new crossings will save quite a few lives.

In the not too distant future, the LIRR will have improved rail service and more trains traveling from the city to this area to accommodate the people who commute to the island. When the Penn Station and Grand Central connection is finished, it may entice younger workers to stay in the suburbs and not leave out of frustration.

Another plus for the Nassau-Suffolk region is the proposed stadium at Belmont Park.

Belmont has been neglected for many years, even though it is a massive site and one of the prettiest tracks in the Northeast.

For over 75 years proposals have been made to do something at that facility and now finally the governor has helped push it through after extensive community input.

There are other Cuomoinspired efforts such as the revitalization of La Guardia Airport and the plans for a more modern JFK airport. In these two cases, the governor has used his clout with the Port Authority to get the financing.

I am not equating this governor to Robert Moses. What Moses did in his time was historic and was done at a time when communities couldn’t stop public progress.

But the governor deserves big thanks for doing some big things at a difficult time that will enrich the lives of Long Islanders.

A LOOK ON THE LIGHTER SIDE

Noticing a few signs of trouble

W

hen I was a little girl, we had to wear skirts or dresses to school, even in winter… which meant that tights were essential to keep one’s legs from freezing.

One day, my mom brought home a new pair for me to try on.

As I did so, I caught sight of the packaging. It said, “New design won’t run.” Could that really be so, I wondered? Would the weave suddenly tighten? Would I fall to the ground?

I decided to put them to the test: I ran up and down our short hallway, waiting for whatever was supposed to kick in and prevent me. All the while, I yelled, “Look mom, I can, too, run in them. The package is wrong!”

Somehow I made it to college.

I remember being very puzzled, one day in the dining hall when my roommate pointed out the jacket a friend was wearing. “She’s got a Ralph Lauren jacket,” my roommate said.

“It’s amazing they’re both the same size,” I marveled, “but won’t Ralph want it back when the weather gets cold?”

After college, I moved to Manhattan. I was walking through the garment district when I encountered a sign that proclaimed a few wedding necessities: “Bridal Notions and Illusion,” it said.

Illusion, apparently, is the stuff they make wedding veils out of.

Also the vows; also the entire concept of Happily Ever After. As for the bridal notions, you’re on your own… as are the brides.

For my own honeymoon, we went to England. My husband was driving us on the M4 — a highspeed highway much like I-95, but with better landscaping — and we kept passing signs for rest-stops that said: “No Football Coaches Allowed.” A few places were more forgiving, with signs that said: “Football Coaches by Reservation Only.”

“Why would they need reservations?” I asked my husband.

“Well, you know what they mean by ‘football’ over here,” he began, keeping most of his attention on staying on the right side, i.e. the wrong side of the road.

“Yes, everybody knows that —

JUDY EPSTEIN

A Look on the Lighter Side it means soccer,” I said, impatiently. “But why do they care about the coaches? I should think it’s the team they’d be worried about!”

“So you realize that a ‘football coach’ means a charter bus full of soccer fans? After a game that maybe they lost?”

“Oh. Well, why didn’t they say so?”

“They thought they had, Judy.

They just hadn’t reckoned with you.”

A few years later, we found ourselves driving up and down

New York State, taking our boys back and forth to camp. One time we left the Taconic and wandered the countryside in search of somewhere for dinner. I asked one local where there might be a good restaurant.

“Oh, you can go anywhere,” our informant answered. “Up here, everyone is CIA.” “Really?!” I was surprised. “I don’t think much of their spycraft, if everybody knows that about them.”

He gave me a funny look. “I meant all the chefs are graduates of the Culinary Institute of America, 14 miles from here in Hyde Park. Why, what were you talking about?”

“Never mind, it’s a secret,” I replied.

There’s a sign I see a lot around here, whether it’s about a boat, a car, or an entire residence: “For Sale by Owner.”

“Well, I certainly hope so!

Who is selling all the other ones — thieves?”

And there’s a sign near my house with this warning: “Blind Drive, Reduce Speed.”

Every time I see it, I ask, “Reduce speed? Why are blind people driv-

ing at all?”

“Well, Judy,” says my husband, “How is a blind person supposed to see the sign, anyway?”

“Ohmigosh, you’re right!” It makes no sense at all — at least, not to me.

My all-time favorite sign is in front of the Town of North Hempstead’s Solid Waste Management facility.

There’s an entrance there, from West Shore Road, with a little bit of lawn and a sign that says “Resident Drop-Off.”

Every time I drive by, I imagine someone like Lt. Colonel Blake from M*A*S*H, sitting in a lawn chair, decked out in hat and fishing gear — waiting patiently for the return of whoever dropped him off.

You can say there is something wrong with me, that makes me interpret every one of these situations incorrectly. You can laugh at me. Go ahead — my husband does, all the time.

That’s why I’m thinking of taking him to the Drop-Off. “It’s OK, you’re a resident,” I’ll tell him.

Hurricanes’ many other victims

H

urricane season is just beginning and we’ve already seen how devastating and damaging hurricanes can be. Reports from the Bahamas are emotional and heartbreaking. Some have lost their lives and others have lost everything that makes up their life – homes, belongings, neighborhoods and communities.

The natural environment took a severe beating as well and it will be some time before the islands recover. But there is an aspect to hurricane damage that is not often discussed, and that is its impact on wildlife.

Wildlife and their homes are hurt by seawater surge, flooding, winds, and the mess left by a hurricane much as people are.

In some instances, wildlife is at more risk than humans because human development and pollution and attempts to mitigate the impact of storms via levees, leave wildlife habitats more susceptible to storm impacts.

Why does it matter and what can be done? It matters because

the preservation of wildlife matters for the preservation of human life. The ecosystem is an intricate web of dependencies.

Removal of any one species can have as yet unknown effects throughout the ecosystem. Yet efforts to protect wildlife can be completely undone by a devastating storm that destroys entire habitat and food sources.

For example, Hurricane Maria in 2017 nearly eliminated a rare Puerto Rican parrot, when the storm took down all the trees the parrots need for habitat and food. Luckily, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service had established self-sustaining wild populations in two separate locations after Hurricane Hugo so although 90 percent of the population was lost from one location, only 35 percent was lost in the other location and the species survived.

Migrating birds face a unique consequence from hurricanes.

Birds that migrate through “hurricane alley,” an area of warm water in the Atlantic Ocean, can be blown off course by strong

LYNN CAPUANO Earth Matters winds and rain and can even die from exhaustion. When storms hit back to back, the effect on migratory birds is cumulative, so even if each individual storms isn’t extreme, in combination they can have the same impact as one severe storm.

It’s not any safer for animals that live on the ground. They may face storm surges that can drown them, and the loss of freshwater can mean that animals can’t find water to drink.

Even those animals that typically

live in close proximity to water and are able to swim, may not be able to handle the heavy rains that come with a hurricane.

And then, of course, there is everything else that comes with the storm waters. Animals, including snakes and alligators, float in seeking drier land and venomous insects and invasive species can arrive and overtake native plants and animals.

The freshwater rain that falls during a storm can change the salinity of local bodies of water.

This allows species to spread into new habitats which can have broad negative consequences on surrounding areas. Wetlands are at risk because the non-native marine life behaves differently in ways that may not be compatible with the needs of the local geography.

Freshwater rain can also jeopardize native plants and animals that cannot tolerate the change in their habitat’s salinity.

The rain, once it is on the ground, doesn’t stay in one spot.

The water flows, and as it travels

it picks up pollutants and pathogens spreading both far and wide. Not only are people threatened by waterborne disease after storms but so are wildlife and marine life. Pollutants carried by stormwater can also change the chemistry of a body of water so that it can no longer support life.

Much as there are steps we can take to protect people from the severity of a hurricane, there are also things we can do to protect wildlife. Preserving natural hurricane buffers such as coral reefs, barrier islands and coastal wetlands is a commonsense step that benefits both people and wildlife.

These natural barriers lessen the power of the surging seas and absorb the additional water, keeping it away from human and animal habitats. They also help coastal systems recover after a storm. Focus on improving coastal resilience can go a long way to address the more intense and frequent storms which are brought on by climate change and which are now becoming the norm.

Mental health days a positive proposal

I

n August 2019 the news was dominated by stories about the horrific mass shootings in Gilroy, Calif.; El Paso, Odessa and Midland, Texas; and Dayton, Ohio. In all, 41 died and more than 90 were wounded.

Among the dead and injured were children. As for the count of those who were emotionally impacted, that cannot be quantified. It transcends the boundaries of those locales.

In a familiar refrain, at the same time that the headlines screamed, the nation mourned and politicians took sides about causes and solutions. There was also a series of stories about efforts to institute mental health days in public schools, including in New York.

It’s not complicated to understand the value of a mental health day unless you are someone who denies that emotional health is as important as physical health. As it stands, New York schools can determine what constitutes a legitimate absence, but the proposed leg-

islation would make a mental health issue an acceptable reason for a student missing school.

Laws like this have already passed in Oregon thanks to the leadership of a number of student activists who pointed to ever-climbing suicide rates. Utah and Minnesota have passed similar laws. Still, the proposed legislation has its detractors, many of whom dismissed the notion in a disparaging manner. Following are a few comments that were posted on social media: “Of course there are students with serious mental health issues. This would/should already be recognized and documented by professional mental health practitioners. Why do we need legislation to allow [kids] who are too stressed over texting all night to take a day off?”

“Kids need to suck it up & go to school. I didn’t have mental health days; my parents raised me with manners, to respect others, go to school and never quit, and if I ever got into trouble I got punished! Kids today

ANDREW MALEKOFF Kids First

are not being disciplined, have zero manners & act like babies.”

“Snow-flakes have mental health issues. They are emotional wrecks over ANYTHING that upsets them… Yes, there are serious mental health issues, but cry rooms in college and days off because you had a fight with a BFF? Please, this is a MAJOR offense to the REAL mental issues like gun violence.”

“We just keep getting softer and softer… The greatest generation must be just heartbroken that we’ve let it get this bad.”

“I cant go to class today ‘ma im questioning my sexual identity.”

“LMFAO!! Bunch of pansies.”

Of course, not everyone took that viewpoint. As one parent put it, “I for one am glad.

As a parent of a teen that has thought of suicide [and] actively self-harms, this will relieve some of my stress and anxiety.”

In reading the critical social media posts, I get where some of these people are coming from. I am a strong work ethic guy. As a former high school and college athlete, I learned early on about “sucking it up,” playing injured and keeping my mouth shut. As for discussing emotional issues, that was a no-no.

Times have changed and for the better. Having a strong work ethic is a question of values, which is not negated by saying when you are hurt — physically or emotionally. Being open about a mental health problem is not a sign of weakness or a sign that you’re a “snowflake,”

implying an unwarranted sense of entitlement or being overly emotional.

On balance, the new legislation will go a long way toward reducing the stigma of mental illness and tempering the toxic masculinity that enabled me to keep concussions a secret during my teenage years.

The mass shootings? As the debate about causes and solutions advances, the level of anxiety and fear among our children is escalating. Would a mental health day following a mass shooting be justified? Or is that just another snowflake excuse to miss school? Let’s hope it’s the former because the day it is not is the day America cashes in its humanity.

VIEW POINT

Once more. End gun violence now

P

araphrasing Ronald Reagan: Here we go again.

President Reagan, recall, was shot in 1981 by a crazed gunman; his press secretary Brady was severely injured and spent a lifetime incapacitated.

It took another 12 years, but the Brady Bill was passed, mandating a background check and waiting period (five days later reduced to three by George W Bush); a ban on assault weapons was passed in 1994 and effectively curtailed senseless, devastating mass shootings for a decade, until George W. Bush allowed the ban to expire.

After yet another massacre – no, two massacres within 13 hours of each other, three if you add the one at the Garlic Festival in California just a few weeks before; four if you add Odessa just days after – only crickets from the Senate despite having the gun safety legislation that passed the House 200 days ago.

The number of mass shootings is over 250 – not in the 15 years since the end of the assault

ban, just since Jan. 1. And that doesn’t include the gun deaths, injuries fewer than four at a time.

Hard to keep track, and the NRAcontrolled Congress makes sure of it, banning the CDC from even researching gun violence as a public health hazard.

What was Texas response after back-to-back mass killings?

The state actually eased restrictions, requiring schools, churches, businesses, stores to allow open carry. (My press request to find out if guns could not be barred from Texas courts, its Capital building, Governor’s office, town halls with legislators was ignored).

And still the Republicans do nothing. In just the 200 days since Mitch “Grim Reaper” McConnell has refused to take up gun safety legislation that passed the House, 18,000 people have been killed, tens of thousands more maimed physically and/or mentally for life.

Trump, whose rhetoric and policies have unleashed much of the violence (“He may not have pulled the trigger, but his tweets

KAREN RUBIN View Point

were the ammunition,” said Kamala Harris), dodges even passing universal background checks saying, “There isn’t the political will.”

That is an extraordinary statement considering 90 percent of Americans – including Republicans and gun owners – want universal background checks and there are strong majorities for other measures too to stop the epidemic of gun violence.

Beto O’Rourke, who has found his raison d’etre as a presidential

candidate after the terror attack on El Paso in which 22 people were killed and another 25 injured in just six minutes, declared at the Democratic Debate in Houston, “the high impact, high velocity round, when it hits your body, shreds everything inside of your body, because it was designed to do that, so that you would bleed to death on a battlefield and not be able to get up and kill one of our soldiers.

“When we see that being used against children.. hell, yes, we’re going to take your AR-15, your AK47. We’re not going to allow it to be used against our fellow Americans anymore.”

No one policy or restriction will address every incidence of gun violence – and Republicans play this shell scam in each instance, “Well background checks wouldn’t have stopped that mass murder,” or “banning assault weapons wouldn’t have stopped that murder-suicide.” In fact, I am not satisfied with just doing one thing, like universal background

checks or “redlining,” though these are the absolute minimums. Here’s what needs to be done: Renew the 1994 assault weapons ban. Too many still in people’s hands? The most popular gun?

Have a buy-back program with a timeline to bring them in and increase the felony charges for possession.

Smart guns would go a long way to ending tragedies by children who get their parents’ guns, robbers who steal homeowners’ weapons, the straw-man acquisitions that negate background checks.

Restrict ammo capacity. Horrifying to think of the 20 people dead in Dayton in just 32 seconds, well before the “good guy with a gun” could do anything.

Tax purchases of guns, ammo, equipment, the money going to Victims’ Fund.

Limit how many guns, how much ammo can be purchased; ban online sales altogether; prosecute straw purchases; prosecute Continued on Page 80

Port falls short on open gov laws

O

ur state’s extremely important two open government laws, the Freedom of Information Law and the Open Meetings Law, were enacted by state legislatures about two generations ago, over powerful objections raised at that time by our teachers’ unions and our school administrators’ associations.

The unions and the associations finally allowed the laws to be passed, but only if they contained certain deficiencies. One of the most glaring deficiencies of both laws is that under each, no kind of a meaningful penalty can be imposed on a public body, which includes school districts, for not following the law.

As a result, school districts, including our own Port Washington School District, constantly ignore certain aspects of both laws, with a smile. I’ve detailed this unfortunate situation in a message titled, “A Giant Is Gone (Part 2)”, which I hope is scheduled to be published in “The Port Washington Times”, in the not too distant future.

The Freedom of Information Law “reaffirms your right

to know how your government operates. It provides (for) rights of access to records reflective of government decisions and policies that affect the lives of every New Yorker (and every school district resident).” The Open Meetings Law “gives the public the right to attend meetings of public bodies ( like our school district), listen to the debates (of those bodies) ( by our school district’s BOE) and to watch the decision making process in action.”

In this message, I want to focus only on “minutes” of meetings. The Open Meetings Law requires that minutes of both open meetings and executive sessions must be compiled and made available to the public, within two weeks of an open meeting and within one week of an executive session, if any action is taken at that executive session.

The law also states that if minutes have been prepared, but have not yet been approved of, they may be marked “draft”, “unapproved” or “non-final”, when they are disclosed to the public (within, of course, the required time frame just mentioned).

The Freedom of Information

Law requires that a voting record must be compiled that identifies how individual members (e.g. of our BOE) voted in every instance in which a vote is taken and if a vote is not unanimous, then the compilation must identify who voted in favor of and who voted against the action.

Our Port board of education held four illegal executive sessions during the latter part of this past June. “ A Giant Is Gone (Part 2)” explains why the sessions were illegal.

The sessions were held on June 17th, 18th, 24th and the 26th. We are now in mid-September. If you will go onto our school district’s website today, you will not find any minutes for those executive sessions.

Of course, those executive sessions were held while Karen Sloan was still president of our school board, so perhaps, we cannot fault our new board president, Nora Johnson, for the failure to provide our community with the required minutes of those sessions. However, since July 1st, when Mrs. Johnson took over the post of president, our Board of Education held execu-

tive sessions on July 1st and on Aug. 6th, and it held open meetings on July 1st, Aug. 6th, Aug. 13th and on Aug. 20th.

Again, if you will go onto our school district’s website today, you will not find minutes for any of the board’s July or August executive sessions or meetings. I can only account for our school board’s failure to provide our community with the minutes that are required by law, as a deliberate policy to ignore our community and also the law.

Since three members of our current school board are licensed attorneys in the state of New York, I am more than surprised that such a policy is condoned.

Never mind the slap in the face to our community, what sort of an example is our school board setting for our children?

Our state’s education law requires that school districts must follow the state’s Freedom of Information Law and the state’s Open Meetings Law. In fact, education law actually repeats many of the requirements of those open government laws.

So, when our board of education chooses to ignore a require-

ment of either open government law, it is also ignoring a requirement of the state’s education law.

If you should happen to attend the next Port board of education meeting, you might ask our board’s president why our school district is following this very unsettling practice.

Some school board member might argue that since the board’s open meetings are now live-streamed, that minutes of those meetings are no longer necessary. I would reject that argument by simply saying that a Port resident shouldn’t have to watch a video recording for two hours, in order to determine what the highlights were of a meeting, if the resident could actually determine highlights, when instead, reading prepared minutes for a minute or two, would do that for the resident.

Didn’t each of our school board members take an oath of office that included upholding the constitution of the United States and the laws of the State of New York?

Nassau’s three pillars of nihilism

H

aving any kind of interest in public policy is perhaps the most depressing affliction of our times.

Recently, a reporter for a financial website posted a tweet about the bill he received from Mount Sinai Hospital for a perfectly normal childbirth, without even the use of an anesthetic. His wife was billed $27,015.57. Even the baby was billed as well, in the amount of $27,355.46. Welcome to America, kid.

Mount Sinai is a “nonprofit” hospital with a 501(c)3 designation. The CEO, Dr. Kenneth Davis, was paid $12.4 million in cash compensation. The head of the United Kingdom’s National Health Service, by comparison, earns the equivalent of just under $300,000.

Mr. Davis runs one hospital chain. The NHS chief runs an entire nation’s.

Aside from the unthinking

rejection of those who claim that this country can’t “afford” a nationalized health system as say, that of Slovenia’s, this is beginning to distort Long Island’s economy.

Our local government and tax structure is so warped, only an organization that operates on the basis of this kind of industrial-scale theft has any chance of survival. Unfortunately, our political class is attracted to money like flies on dung and is then so incentivized to aid and abet it.

To do otherwise, to structure our local government to actually function with any level of normal staffing, scale, or cost, would end the deeply embedded network of grift as they know it, and they cannot risk that.

Even if it would prevent the continued erosion of a balanced economy. So this becomes the only game in town, especially since our thoroughly

corrupted IDA can’t even bribe it’s way out of a paper bag.

So it was with some dismay that I read that Nassau County is considering eliminating fees for the establishment of nonprofit buildings and organizations situated here. Except this isn’t being done for the benefit of the Sisters of Charity.

It’s being done for the benefit of Mount Sinai, Sloan Kettering, and our own hometown health care monopoly, Northwell. When is a “non-profit” not a non-profit? When it does whatever it wants to suit itself, at the expense of the community at large.

One can’t help but notice there is very little business development going on here, except for medical facilities and ancillary services that supply them.

Concurrently, articles appear about yet another manufacturer closing its doors or moving away. If things con-

tinue in this manner, there will be three predatory industries left: Public schools, the Civil Service, and health care. No normal industry will be able to thrive. These three pillars of nihilism are eating Long Island alive.

One day, people may wise up and realize that paying for unnecessary lab tests and multiple blood draws to pad salaries and perks is a tremendous waste of resources.

People have to realize the hospital system isn’t designed to keep you out- it’s designed to put you in. The utter lunacy of a hospital chain spending it’s resources on mass marketing for cancer treatment is blithely accepted as a normal facet of our health care delivery system. Spending hundreds of thousands on something as absurd as naming rights to a stadium is judged to be perfectly acceptable.

Markowitz needed Gifts from President Trump at memorial and for President Trump

I

write to express my appreciation and support for Steven Markowitz, his unwavering commitment to the Jewish community, and his dynamic leadership of the Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center.

I have known Steve for 18 years. Steve was the synagogue’s president when I was a congregational rabbi at Temple Israel in Great Neck.Steve is one of the most decent, upstanding, genuine, and honest people I know, a proud and steadfast Jew. Steve is an eved ne’eman, a faithful and loyal servant, in all matters involving the Jewish community. Steve is committed to the well-being of Great Neck and its civic life, its diverse Jewish community, the Jewish People, and the State of Israel.

Steve has devoted decades of his life to create an environment for Jews of every ethnic group, religious practice, and political persuasion to live together harmoniously and to thrive both in Great Neck and beyond.

As president of Temple Israel, Steve invited reform and orthodox rabbis for an annual rabbinic dialogue. Steve has fought against the BDS movement nationwide, in both a personal and a professional capacity.

As chairman of the HMTC, Steve has expanded its reach to fight against, and to educate about, anti-Semitism and other bigotry and intolerance and to promote interfaith understanding in Great Neck schools and on Long Island.

We recently commemorated the destruction of the ancient Temples in Jerusalem, which the rabbinic sages attributed to sin’at hinam, senseless hatred, within the Jewish community. Senseless hatred harms the Jewish community itself.

Personal attacks on Steve’s character and threats to withhold support for the HMTC are not the Jewish way. Jewish values instruct that we elevate ourselves through civil speech and rational, reasoned dialogue on substantive issues.

esponding to a Letter titled “Trump continues to be a gift to America,” I wish I had the receipt for “the gift.” I would return it so fast and I would not even ask for my money back. Actually, I’d have them burn “the gift”.

Since the writer of that letter is so good at research, perhaps he could put it to good use by initially doing some research on the moral character of Trump, following it up by determining how many of the 12,000-plus lies that Trump has made are supported by “real” facts.

I’d be quite surprised if he found even one.

Do you know what’s a real gift to America? It’s a well-researched document filled with facts and known as “The Mueller Report.”

I’ll bet that same reader didn’t even read it. It’s probably too difficult for him to understand. Plus, reading so many pages can hurt the eyes. Anyway, it’s a lot easier to listen to and believe a super salesman deliver a bill of goods.

Hey! You wanna buy the Brooklyn Bridge? I can get it for you at a discount and there would be no delivery charge. This person apparently believes everything that

Trump says.

Does that mean he is lacking smarts? I don’t have to imply or say that. His own words tell it all. Is this too nasty? Not in the Trumpian world.

The letter writer also brought up Trump’s solution to immigration problems.As an American, it’s so delightful to see little immigrant children locked in cages, separated from their mothers and fathers.

But in reality, as I’m sure that Trump would point out, this program is a gift and good for business because the cages are manufactured in America and create more jobs.

Granted, manufacturing them in places like China or Korea or even Guatemala would be cheaper, but as Trump always says, “America First!”

Regarding Trump’s administration rule that immigrants who desire to flee from countries like Guatemala, Honduras or El Salvador because of growing violence and cross the U.S./ Mexico border are ineligible for asylum in the United States if they had not previously applied for asylum in countries they had traveled through: The Supreme court ruled that the administration has the right to impose it temporarily.

Thank God the court is independent. No one put a gun to their heads, especially an assault weapon.

Can you imagine if this “rule” had existed in 1939, when a person trying to escape from Nazi Germany had to seek asylum from another country, perhaps a Nazi conquered country like Czechoslovakia, Poland or Austria.

If they tried to apply for asylum in these countries, these poor people would have ended up in cages in concentration camps, followed most likely by death. It seems that Trump is following the Nazi’s methods, but we all know that one man can’t do it alone.

Hitler had Hermann Goering.

Trump has Mitch McConnell and he controls his crony Republican Senators. I guess you can do that when you have no conscience. I guess it’s also a gift.

Is all this an extreme way of thinking? Wait and see and, God forbid. As for gifts, how about one for Trump that says it all in one word. Prison!

Roslyn man attests to dangers of vaping

PHOTO COURTESY OF NORTHWELL HEALTH

Jonathan Doneson (center) of Roslyn Heights nearly died after several months of THC vaping. He is flanked by Dr. Annamaria Iakovou (left) and Dr. Mina Makaryus.

BY R O S E W E L D ON A resident of Roslyn Heights who nearly died due to vaping THC for several months spoke out last Thursday, the same day that Gov. Andrew Cuomo issued an emergency executive order that bans the sale of flavored electronic cigarettes in the state.

Jonathan Doneson, 52, of Roslyn Heights, used a vape pen to calm his nerves following the stress of starting a new business with his wife, he said at a news conference at North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset. He began vaping tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, a chemical in marijuana known for its effect on dopamine receptors in the brain.

Shortly after a trip abroad over the summer, Doneson said, he began to suffer from “night sweats” and felt “feverish and in pain.” When treatments for bronchitis failed to yield results, Doneson was forced to go to the emergency room at

North Shore on Aug. 22.

Doctors grew concerned when he didn’t respond to a usual course of antibiotics. He only began to progress after Dr.Mina Makaryus, a pulmonologist at North Shore, found out about Doneson’s habit.

“No one could figure out why the antibiotics weren’t working,” Doneson said.

“When Dr. Makaryus asked me about my smoking or drinking habits, I told him that I had started using a THC vaping pen about a month earlier.”

Once Makaryus made the connection, Doneson bounced back quickly, he said, and returned home three weeks after being admitted.

Dr. Annamaria Iakovou, a pulmonary, critical care and sleep medicine physician at North Shore, said that Doneson’s case was not the first vaping-related illness seen in the Northwell Health system.

‘Shtisel’ cast visits Temple Israel

BY R OB E RT PE L A E Z The Netflix original series “Shtisel” centers on a fourth-generation ultra-Orthodox Jewish family living in Israel. The show’s glimpse into a tight-knight Jewish community piqued enough interest from American viewers that cast and crew members attended a panel hosted at Temple Israel in Great Neck last Thursday.

“It’s extremely entertaining and enriching,” said United Jewish Appeal-Federation of New York Chief Marketing Officer Graham Cannon. “Though it may not be based on a true story per se, it gives people a chance to experience the way that other people live their lives.”

A partnership between the show and the UJA-Federation allowed Long Island residents to watch several clips from the series and take part in a Q&A after the screenings. Cast members Doval’e Glickman, Ayelet Zurer and Neta Riskin, and co-producer Ori Elon were the show’s representatives on the panel.

“The role I had on ‘Shtisel’ made me more satisfied than any other role I ever did,” said Glickman. “Seeing the reception and how many citizens came out tonight is amazing.”

Glickman, who is known in the Israeli community for both comedic and dramatic roles, plays Shulem Shtisel, the patriarchal figure in the series. Zurer portrays a twice-widowed woman named Elisheva Rothstein, while Riskin’s role is Giti Weiss, a mother of five. Though all actors on the panel were born in Tel Aviv, it was not until “Shtisel” that they began to learn about

Members of the Netflix original series “Shtisel” attend a panel hosted by Temple Israel and the UJA-Federation of New York the ultra-Orthodox practices.

“It was a society that was strange to me when I was young,” said Riskin. “We had to learn blessings, Shabbat dinner and other orthodox aspects of the Orthodox community that many believe we all just know. I think events like this help to educate everyone about culture and religion.”

The UJA-Federation’s mission is to fund hundreds of local and global nonprofit organizations to tackle pressing issues head on, according to the UJA-Foun-

dation website. The goal of shaping the Jewish future is one that Cannon knows well, but he said that hosting events with prominent figures turns these local events into global calls to action.

“We all look to celebrities being some of society’s most influential figures,” said Cannon. “These events are for anyone and everyone to be a part of our wanting to shape the Jewish future in New York, and across the globe.”

Temple Israel was the most recent stop on the show’s panel tour, with prior

events being held in Westchester and New York City. The city event hosted by Temple Emanu-El gained so much attraction, tickets sold out in a matter of hours, and a second event was added, according to Cannon. That show sold out in a matter of hours as well.

“Over 4,000 total seats for two events sold out, with lines stretching out and around the street corners. I’d say that accurately displays the impact this show has on New York’s Jewish community,” said Cannon.

Renovation begins at A high-end motorcar historic lighthouse auction at art museum

BY R O S E W E L D ON

BY R OB E RT PE L A E Z Construction to repair the Stepping Stones Lighthouse dock has begun, according to the Town of North Hempstead.

The project is a combination of efforts by the town, the Great Neck Park District and the Great Neck Historical Society.

“This dock will be a game-changer for the restoration of the Stepping Stones Lighthouse,” said Town Supervisor Judi Bosworth. “We are all very excited to see this first step being taken. Following the construction of the dock, we will be able to more easily access the lighthouse to begin further restoration of this historic structure.”

The dock, which is the first step in the restoration of the entire lighthouse, is part of the Town of North Hempstead’s five-year capital plan.

When Bosworth began her tenure in 2014, a partnership was created between the park district and the historical society to take steps to preserve structures such

Fifty cars and motorcycles from makers including Ferrari, Bugatti, Jaguar, Porsche and Packard and valued at more than $22 million will be placed on the auction block next month at the Nassau County Museum of Art. The event on Oct. 12 comes from Manhattan-based charity event company RAND Luxury, headed by CEO Bradford Rand, who says the auction is to be the first of its kind in Nassau County.

“There’s a large number of car collectors on Long Island and in New York, but there’s no auction to service and reach these collectors,” Rand said.

Andrew Levitt, automotive director for RAND Luxury, says that while major auctions for collectors exist in Scottsdale, Arizona, in January, Amelia Island, Florida, in March and Monterey, California, in August, such an event has yet to break through in New York.

“New York is a car culture-rich region,” Levitt said. “There’s never really been an auction that’s been able to

stand the test of time here. It’s a massive culture that’s untapped, so RAND is trying to fill that gap.”

Added Rand, “They don’t necessarily go to Pebble Beach, or Scottsdale, so we’re actually bringing a luxury auction to them.”

Of particular interest to bidders, says Levitt, is a 1983 De Tomaso Pantera GT5-S from the personal collection of the late Carroll Shelby, designer of the Ford Mustang, as well as a restored 1963 Ferrari 250 SWB, which is estimated to go for $1.25 million to $1.5 million.

“Nearly all of the cars are museum quality, they’re all collectible, they’re all in wonderful condition, and it should be interesting to see what sells,” Rand said.

A portion of the proceeds will benefit the event’s host, the Nassau County Museum of Art. The 140-acre estate and former home to members of the Frick family “couldn’t be any more fitting” for the auction, Rand says.

“Many of these cars are artworks Continued on Page 75

YOUR GUIDE TO THE ARTS, ENTERTAINMENT AND DINING

CELEBRATING LOCAL RADIO

BY B I L LY F I T Z PAT R I C K Next Friday, the Town of North Hempstead and its radio show “Project Independence and You” will celebrate eight years of broadcasting while serving senior citizens across northern Nassau County.

The show is based on – and named after – Project Independence, the town’s aging in place program that provides programs and services that assist senior residents who wish to remain in their own homes. These services include transportation for groceries and medical visits, help with home maintenance, nursing and social work services, fitness classes and community education, along with many others.

“It’s really an amazing show,” said show producer Kristina Lew, who also works with the town Department of Services for the Aging. “We have the privilege of really getting all of this information out to our audience and caregivers, which is incredible.”

Lew has been the producer of the show since its inception in 2011 and has worked with a variety of hosts and co-hosts over the eight years the show has been on the air. Despite not having a background in radio, Lew has successfully put out a show every Friday from 10 a.m. to noon on 88.1 FM WCWP, Long Island University’s college radio station, after a licensing opportunity with the FCC fell through.

“The FCC was going to give a license to us, and it sounded great on paper, but it was going to be a 24/7 thing,” said Lew.

From left to right, Project Independence and You show producer Kristina Lew, show engineer Victoria Onorato, Town of North Hempstead Supervisor Judi Bosworth, co-host Otto Lohse and host John Ryan.

“It gives me anxiety just thinking about programming for that.

After calling around, we reached out to Dan [Cox], who’s the director of broadcasting here at LIU, and he said he wanted to branch out and not just be a college radio station because senior citizens are still listening to radio.”

“We’re not looking for anyone to put on a presentation,”

said Otto Lohse, who has been one of the show’s co-hosts for all eight years. “We don’t want the host or co-host to be like a shock jock. It’s not like a political environment to me, and I think that’s important.”

Each week, the Project Independence team is joined by a guest, considered to be an expert in a field. The guests vary from week to week, but each has a

common theme: they all speak about a topic that could have an impact on senior citizens or their caregivers. Lew is responsible for booking the guests to appear on the show, while the rest of the crew studies up on the topic for the week.

“Everybody does a little homework before, so we can have a halfway decent conversation,” said Lohse, on the people

he meets each week. “But she makes all the phone calls, we just show up and they’re here!”

While Lew is the one who schedules the interviews, she isn’t alone in finding the experts for the show’s interview segments.

“I have our co-hosts or other seniors call me up and tell me ‘I met this doctor’ or ‘I have this great topic of interest’ … and I become a detective to try and hunt down the appropriate person to talk about that topic,” explained Lew. “I’ll also have organizations contact me about the show, saying they want to be on here. It’s all different venues and we’re always trying to stay up to date on new trends.”

As for the rest of the show’s format, the two interviews take up the first hour, with each guest receiving approximately 30 minutes to discuss a topic. The second hour consists of a 30-minute “Old Time Radio” segment, which brings senior listeners back to the era in which radio programming was the primary source for entertainment. The other 30 minutes is the “Talk of the Town” segment, which is when Lew hops on the mic herself and talks about the different events and programs happening in the Town of North Hempstead or nearby. She said that the “Talk of the Town” is more than just what’s going on in the Town of North Hempstead.

“The format we have here is a roundtable discussion,” said Lew. “We say it’s like sitting around drinking coffee at your dining room table with your friends.”

After failing miserably at the University of Miami, SteveO was a homeless couch-surfer for three years before he attended Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Clown College, to help further his goal of becoming a famous stuntman. Eventually, Steve-O’s videos made it into the hands of Jeff Tremaine (Jackass Creator/Director/ Producer), who was working with Johnny Knoxville to create a stunt-based reality show. The rest is history. MTV aired the first season of JACKASS in 2000. Now, Steve-O is taking his “The Bucket List” tour to the Paramount on Friday, Sept. 27.

Smart ways to embrace retirement

R

etirement is on the horizon for a significant number of people.

Around 10,000 people retire each day in the United States, according to a study by Merrill Lynch and Age Wave, a consultancy studying the cultural and economic impacts of aging. But many soon-to-be retirees are not fully prepared for life after their work life ends. Shedding new light on this next chapter can make retirement something to look forward to even more.

How retired are you?

Retirement may no longer mean what it once did. Some retirees remove themselves entirely from the active employment market, while others prefer to keep at least one toe in the professional water. Some retirees change fields and do part-time work. Others may volunteer their time without getting paid. Still, some choose to use retirement as an opportunity to spearhead a new business

venture that may not have been possible beforehand. Retirees should reflect on their goals, as well as their finances, and make plans accordingly.

Don’t neglect health care

Retiring may involve finding health insurance and preparing for other types of health care later in life. The U.S. Census Bureau says that employmentbased insurance covered 55.4 percent of the population in 2015, the most recent years for figures, followed by Medicaid (19.5 percent) and Medicare (16 percent). Residents of other countries may be covered by government standardized health programs. It pays to know the rules of each plan to avoid unnecessary expenses that can eat into retirement dollars. For those Americans who will be relying solely on Medicare, find a counselor who can spell out the intricacies of the plan, or use the free tool on Medicare.gov.

See retirement as a beginning, not an end Quite often soon-to-be retirees focus on the end of a career or the end of a stage in life without putting enough focus on the possibilities ahead. This is a prime time to find a new social network, travel, join a ministry, and much more.

Choose your living space Retirement can be an opportunity to shed an old skin and try on a new one - especially as it pertains to housing. There are options to downsize for emptynesters or even to secure resources to “age in place.”

According to United Income, a money management service, retirees should try out particular scenarios and locations prior to jumping in. Rent in a particular neighborhood, or house sit and try things on for size. Airbnb and other types of services can make this trial easy.

Health screenings men should discuss with their physicians R outine doctor visits are a vital component of a healthy lifestyle. As noted by the U.S. National Library of Medicine, even men who feel healthy and live active lifestyles must make routine visits to their healthcare providers. Such visits can assess risk for future medical problems and offer men the opportunity to update vaccinations. Routine health checkups also give doctors a chance to screen for medical issues.

Doctors consider a man’s age and other risk factors to determine when and how frequently he will need certain medical screenings. For example, while men between the ages of 40 and 64 are often advised to get blood pressure screenings at least once per year, those with diabetes, heart disease, kidney

problems, and other conditions may need more frequent screenings.

No two men have the same medical histories, which only highlights the need for men of all ages to schedule annual physical exams with their physicians. Such exams can reveal potential problems and also make for great opportunities to discuss more specific medical screenings with their physicians. The following are some general screening tests and guidelines recommended for all men between the ages of 40 and 64, courtesy of the USNLM. Prostate cancer The USNLM notes that most men age 50 or older should discuss screening for prostate cancer with their physicians.

Ethnicity and family history are some of the recognized risk factors for prostate cancer. As a result, African American men and men with a family history of prostate cancer in a first degree relative younger than 65 should discuss screenings beginning at age 45. There are pros and cons to prostate cancer screenings, and these should be part of men’s discussions with their physicians.

Colorectal cancer

All men between the ages of 50 and 75 should be screened for colorectal cancer. Physicians may recommend colorectal screening for men under age 50 with a family history of colon cancer or polyps. In addition, physicians may consider screenings for men under 50 who have a history of inflammatory bowel disease.

Cholesterol

Osteoporosis

The USNLM advises men to have their cholesterol levels checked every five years. Men with certain conditions, such as diabetes and heart disease, may need to be checked more often.

Women are more likely to develop osteoporosis than men, but that doesn’t mean men are immune to this condition marked by a weakening of the bones due to tissue loss. Fractures after age 50, heavy alcohol use, smoking, and low body weight are some risk factors that can make men vulnerable to osteoporosis.

Diabetes Diabetes screenings are recommended every three years for men age 45 and older.

Men who are overweight and younger than 45 should ask their physicians if they should be screened before they reach 45.

1. Become pen pals. Seniors may have limited mobility or opportunities to get out of the house. Receiving mail is one way to connect with the outside world.

Regularly send letters to a grandparent or other senior, sharing tales of daily life and key moments that will bring them joy. Chances are they’ll return the favor with a letter of their own.

2. Explore technology together. Younger generations can introduce seniors to available technology that can bring them closer. This may include digital assistants that enable them to share videos,

tablets to send email or access social media, mobile phones for calling and texting, and anything else families can customize to their needs.

3. Offer companionship. Spending time with younger generations can motivate seniors to stay active and engaged.

Have games and activities at the ready or simply provide a listening ear.

4. Shop and run errands. Help aging loved ones perform the tasks that they may not be able to tackle on their own.

This can include picking up groceries or prescriptions or taking them to appointments. Simple work around the house, like doing laundry or light clean-up, also can be a big help.

5. Start a hobby together. Develop a hobby that seniors and young people can enjoy together. Watching classic movies, painting ceramics, going to sporting events, or gardening are just a few of the many hobbies that seniors can enjoy with their young loved ones.

There are many ways to bridge the generation gap and spend meaningful time with aging loved ones.

Recently Mineola chamber member Tony Lubrano said that members of the group had “really upped our game” for the fair. Harris said he agreed with Lubrano’s sentiment.

This year’s fair will run along Jericho Turnpike from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. between Mineola Boulevard and Willis Avenue. The rain date for the fair is Oct. 6 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

“We are expecting more vendors than we’ve had in the past,” Harris said. “We’re making it bigger and better as we go along.”

Lubrano said the chamber has gotten more children’s rides, a new dunk tank, a petting zoo, horse and pony rides, and even an “Escape the Room” bus.

What makes the fair unique, Harris said, is the sheer size of the event and the “familycentric” theme of the yearly event with all the options available on top of checking out local vendors.

The chamber’s event has the support of

Mineola Mayor Scott Strauss will not have to spend the entire day of the Mineola Street Fair in the dunk tank, according to the Mineola Chamber of Commerce. the Mineola village board, which gave Lubrano time to speak about the fair at a Sept.

4 board meeting.

Members of the Mineola Chamber of Commerce “have a big investment in this community and if you don’t have a strong business community our residential community won’t be as strong,” Mineola Mayor Scott Strauss said. “Their success is our success.”

Strauss is no stranger to the fair. A big staple of the fair is Strauss spending time in the dunk tank.

Strauss will be getting a break from the dunk tank this year, Lubrano said. Rather than the mayor sitting in the dunk tank all day waiting to getting dunked by residents, business owners and trustees, this year he will only have to do it for 30 minutes, Lubrano said.

Lubrano said some of the local leaders who will be taking shifts in the dunk tank include County Legislature Presiding Officer Richard Nicolello (R-New Hyde Park), former Mineola Mayor Jack Martins, Deputy Mayor Paul Perreira and village Clerk Joe Scalero.

Lubrano said the chamber will be getting photos of Strauss’ “revenge” dunking other local leaders and trustees after many years in the dunk tank.

“What makes this place a community is all these little things where almost everybody knows each other,” Lubrano said.

Lubrano said the fair started as an agricultural fair named the Mineola Fair in the late 1800s. He said when he moved to Mineola in 2003, the street fair was more of a “craft show kind of fair” with a focus on children’s shows at Mineola Memorial Park.

He said the decision to move the fair to Jericho Turnpike for the past five years was made because the chamber’s goal is to help local businesses and the park was too small to help local businesses.

Lubrano said businesses that did not participate in New Hyde Park’s Community Day, which replaced the village’s annual street fair, will be at the Mineola street fair.

On what makes a great community, Harris said it’s the people within it.

“It’s a day for Mineola,” he said.

Exercises to support stronger hips

S

urgery is not an inevitable side effect of aging. In fact, men and women over 50 can employ various preventive techniques to strengthen their bones and joints in the hopes of avoiding the surgical wing of their local hospitals.

According to AARP, more than 370,000 men and women undergo hip replacement surgeries in the United States each year.

Some may think such surgeries are a final solution to their hip pain, but that might not be the case, as AARP notes than one in 10 hip replacement recipients will need a second procedure for any number of reasons, including infection or mechanical failure.

A proactive approach that focuses on strengthening and protecting the hips can help aging men and women reduce their risk of one day needing hip replacement surgery. The following are a handful of exercises, courtesy of the AARP, that can help men and women strengthen their hips.

Good Morning Stand with your feet shoulderwidth apart and keep your hands at your sides. With your knees slightly bent and your back naturally arched, bend at your hips as if you’re bowing out of respect as far as you can go, or until your torso is almost parallel to the floor. Return to the starting position. During the exercise, keep your core braced and don’t bow your back.

Hip Abduction

Stand with your feet shoulderwidth apart. Loop a resistance band around both ankles, and then raise your right leg out to the side as far as you can. Hold in this position for a moment before slowly returning to the starting position. Switch legs and then repeat the exercise on the other side.

Hip Adduction

Loop one end of a resistance band low around a solid object, then stand to the left of that

object before looping the other end of the band around your right ankle. Place your legs shoulderwidth apart, and then pull in your right leg until your ankles touch.

Repeat with your left leg, this time moving to the right side of the object.

Glute Bridge Lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor. Raise your hips to form a straight line from your shoulders to your knees, using some type of support if you need to. Clench your butt at the top of the movement, pause, and lower yourself back down.

Men and women unaccustomed to exercise should consult their physicians before performing any of these exercises. In addition, if necessary, perform the exercises under the supervision of a personal trainer who can advise you on proper form and help you reduce your risk of injury.

Prepare visiting Did you for know? elder guests Homeowners may find themselves hosting senior guests several times throughout a typical year. These occasions can be wonderful opportunities for making memories, but homeowners may need to take certain precautions to ensure that guests are safe and comfortable.

This may involve making some minor modifications around the home.

and be sure that any mats are secured with nonslip material.

Mobility and comfort needs for seniors may differ those necessary to accommodate other guests. Meeting the needs of senior guests may involve any of the following.

· Well-placed grab bars in the bathroom can be an asset. See if you can borrow a portable shower seat to make bathing or showering easier for overnight senior guests.

· Make sure pathways leading to and from the home are level, cleared and easy to see. · If possible, add a ramp over stairs that lead to the front door. Ensure handrails are sturdy. · Remove clutter and excess furniture if a guest visiting will be using a walker or a manual/motorized wheelchair.

· Remove accent rugs from a home,

· Increase lighting in entryways, staircases and hallways, especially areas leading to kitchens or bathrooms. · If guests will be staying overnight, arrange sleeping accommodations on the first floor and/or in a room closest to the bathroom.

· For long-term guests, consider replacing round doorknobs and other pulls with lever-action ones that are easy to grab. · Concessions may need to be made concerning interior temperature, noise levels and television viewing.

Several easy modifications can be made to make senior guests feel comfortable when visiting others.

3 money-saving Make vacations and travel tips travel a key component for retirees of your retirement T

W

hen the time comes to bid farewell to conference calls, meetings and daily commutes, retirees have open schedules to fill with whichever activities they choose.

Travel is one exciting way to pass the time.

Traveling can be a rewarding prospect for active seniors, particularly those who successfully preplanned for retirement and have the income to fund various excursions. Many seniors, both in the United States and Canada, find that travel tops their to-do lists once they retire. According to Senior Travel magazine, new travel options are emerging for newly minted retirees looking for something a little different from the status quo.

The list of destinations retirees have at their disposal is limitless.

The following ideas are some of the more popular ways retirees choose to travel.

Road trips rule. Taking to the highways and byways is an excellent way to see the country. Seniors can customize their routes depending on which places they want to visit. RV travel can be as comfortable or as rustic as

travelers prefer. Many seniors spend months traveling in their campers, which offer many of the same amenities of home.

Campsites and special RV hookup sites offer the other necessities of traveling the open road.

Genealogical tourism is popular. People hoping to trace their ancestry and visit their ancestral homelands are one of the fastestgrowing travel segments. Visiting an old church in Europe where ancestors were married or buying food from a market in which a great aunt or uncle once worked leads retirees on many international adventures. Such trips provide travelers with a unique opportunity to understand their roots up close and personal while enjoying some international travel along the way.

Exotic tours can be exciting destinations. History buffs or adventure-seeking couples may be particularly attracted to exotic travel destinations that are slightly off of the beaten path. Travel tours may take vacationers to destinations such as excavation sites or backpacking through the rainforest. With passport in hand, seniors can go just about anywhere

their desires take them.

Enjoy a relaxing seaside trip.

A seaside vacation can be the perfect trip for seniors who want to put their feet up and sip some cocktails while watching the waves lap the shores. Many beach resorts offer all-inclusive packages for different age groups.

Meals, excursions and hotel rooms can be bundled into one affordable, confusion-free price.

Go cruising. Speaking of allinclusive vacationing, cruising seems tailor-made for those ages 50 and older because it offers the convenience of accommodations, food, entertainment, and transportation all in one. The various activities offered on the ship mean travelers can find ways to spend their time how they see fit.

Cruising couples can opt to spend all of their time on the ship enjoying carefully prepared meals and entertainment or disembark and explore the various ports of call along the way.

Now that they have more free time, retirees can gear up for travel adventures to remember.

hough a transient lifestyle is something few people aspire to during much of their lives, come retirement, the idea of staying in a place for only a short time has more appeal.

According to a recent study from the Transamerica Center for Retirement Studies, 36 percent of baby boomers want to spend their retirements traveling.

Many are succeeding in doing just that, as a study from the luxury travel network Virtuoso found that today’s seniors spent an average of just over $11,000 per year on travel. That was more than any other generation, highlighting just how much older adults like to get out and explore the world.

Retirees who fear they cannot afford to travel can explore the various ways for seniors to cut costs and still satisfy their wanderlust during retirement.

1. Take advantage of age-related discounts.

Some adults prefer to hide their ages, but when it comes time to travel during retirement, honesty is the best policy. Many businesses that cater to travelers offer discounts to seniors. Car rental agencies, hotels, travel agencies, and cruise lines may offer direct discounts to customers 65 and older, while membership in organizations such as AAA and AARP may make seniors eligible for additional discounts. Discounts on lodging and airfare might net the biggest savings, but even discounts on various smaller expenses can add up to big savings.

2. Don’t overlook travel agencies.

While many prospective travelers’ first instincts are now to visit various travel websites in an effort to find the most affordable trips, it’s important that travelers not overlook travel agencies when planning trips.

Travel websites, though a valuable resource, only list the hotels and airlines that agree to be included on their sites. While many participate, some do not, and those that do not may instead work independent of travel websites or partner with travel agencies.

Travel agencies have access to the latest information, and many specialize in certain countries, knowing all the attractions visitors to their countries want to see. Travel agencies may offer packages that include admissions to popular attractions, which can be more affordable than planning a trip a la carte.

3. Travel as part of a group.

Group travel may not appeal to everyone, but it should appeal to older, budget-conscious travelers.

Retirees who are uncomfortable driving at home will likely be even less comfortable driving in foreign countries where the rules of the road are not the same. Traveling in groups, whether it’s with a retirement community, religious organization or another program, can save travelers substantial amounts of money. Many hotels and tourist attractions offer steep discounts for group tours, which can even be arranged through travel agencies. A hidden benefit of signing up for a group tour is the chance to meet new people and develop new relationships with fellow globetrotters.

Many working professionals hope to spend the bulk of their retirement traveling the globe. While such a goal is potentially costly, there are various ways to save and still see the world.

CROSSWORD PUZZLE

AGT star Tom Cotter at Madison Theatre

BY TOM M CC A RT HY “America’s Got Talent” funny man Tom Cotter said he is excited to entertain Long Islanders for his first-ever performance at the Madison Theatre at Molloy College in Rockville Centre on Friday.

“Long Island is the mecca of comedy,” Cotter said. “There’s something in the water, it breeds funny.”

Cotter, a native Rhode Islander, said that some of his favorite comedians have come from Long island, including Jerry Seinfeld, Ray Romano and Rosie O’Donnell.

Cotter said that Long Islanders should expect “two hours of material in one,”

Comedian Tom Cotter was a contestant during the 7th season of “America’s Got Talent.”

which he says is his “modus operandi” of comedy. He said that New York audiences, especially ones on Long Island, connect with his comedy better than other states. He said his act resonates with the wit of Bostonians and New Yorkers.

The comedian said he was making “OK money” until he “stepped in leprechaun crap” when he was accepted as a contestant for the seventh season of “America’s Got Talent” in 2012. He champions himself as “the first comedian ever to be a finalist on the show” and said he was “the highest finishing human being on the show that year.”

Cotter placed second to the “Olate Dogs” act. Olate Dogs is a dog trick act featuring father-and-son trainers Richard and Nicholas Olate, Cotter said.

Cotter has made subsequent appearances on the show.

His appearances since “America’s Got Talent” include “The Tonight Show,” “Last Comic Standing,” his own episode of “Comedy Central Presents,” “The Howard Stern Show,” “Comics Unleashed” and having multiple appearances on CBS’ “The Late Late Show.” His bio also said he is a frequent guest on the Fox News Channel.

“They’re a smart audience, they get it right away,” Cotter said about Long Island audiences.

He said he is excited to do his rapidfire style of comedy in Rockville Centre, but joked, “I can’t stand the traffic” on Long Island.

EIGHT YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE Continued from Page 25 “Project Independence and You” will celebrate its eighth anniversary in its usual time slot, 10 a.m. to noon next Friday. Town of North Hempstead Supervisor Judi Bosworth will be present and can be heard on air during the first

hour of the show.

Gold Coast presents Adelphi announces fall ‘Back to Berlin’ 2019 season choices The Gold Coast International Film Festival will present the highly acclaimed 2018 documentary “Back to Berlin,” which chronicles the epic 2015 journey from Tel Aviv to the site of Hitler’s infamous 1936 Olympics in Berlin.

The screening will be on Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. at the Great Neck Squire Cinemas, 115 Middle Neck Road, Great Neck. Tickets cost $15, or $10 for students and can be ordered online at www. goldcoastartscenter.org, or can be purchased at the door, subject to availability.

“Back to Berlin” cameras followed motorcyclists along their moving and inspirational journey as they crossed nine European countries, covering 4,500 kilometers (2,796 miles) over 24 days.

En route, each country held a chilling resonance for the group, which included Holocaust survivors, descendants of survivors and the grandson of a 1930’s Maccabiah Rider.

In 2015, the European Maccabi Games (aka the Jewish Olympics) were held at the site of Hitler’s infamous 1936 Berlin Olympics for the first time since WWII. Part biker-flick, part Holocaust documentary, “Back to Berlin” follows 11 Israeli motorbikers carrying the Maccabi

torch from Tel Aviv to Berlin, retracing the tracks of the original 1930s Maccabiah riders who traveled to all corners of Europe to seek out athletes to compete in the first Maccabiah Games.

Upon conclusion of the screening, there will be a Q&A session with the film’s director, Catherine Lurie-Alt, a London-based journalist, director and producer, who has written, produced and directed eight television human interest stories, including the 2013 Maccabiah Games for the Los Angeles-based Jewish Life Television.

“In 2012, I was asked to be a broadcaster for the Maccabi 2013 Games in Israel by the LA-based TV station, JLTV,” says Lurie-Alt. “I came across the fascinating stories of the three heroic missions of the 1930’s Jewish motorcyclists.

It was the words of Yair Hamburger, Maccabi World Union’s chairman, ‘Maccabi saved my family from the nails of the Nazis,’ that would resonate and later lead me into filmmaking. When hearing that Germany would host the Maccabi European Games in July 2015, the title ‘Back to Berlin’ came to me for everything it symbolizes.”

Continued from Page 30 of Bizet’s Carmen and Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol in December.

The complete 2019 fall season schedule provides more details on all events.

Tickets are now on sale with discounts available to seniors, students, staff and alumni. Information is available at the Lucia and Steven N. Fischer Box Office at 516-877-4000 or boxoffice@adelphi.edu.

Nassau sees high housing sales

BY J E S S I C A PA R K S Some 1,321 homes were sold in Nassau County last month, a 12 percent drop from the number sold in the same month last year, according to Multiple Listing Service Long Island’s monthly housing report.

August home sales were higher than those in July, which also recorded a lower number of home sales than the year before.

Home buying trends over the last 24 months show that the number of homes sold typically peaks in August and drops in September, and then gradually tapers until the end of the year, when there is a small spike around the holiday season.

Home buying has stayed low in the early months of the calendar year until gradually rising again throughout the spring to get to its highest levels again in the summer.

The number of pending sales in August was 1,341 homes, a 4.5 percent increase from the year before, when there were 1,283 pending sales.

On Long Island, there were 18,418 homes available, which was a drop of almost 3.8 percent from July, when there were 19,144 available. Long Island’s home inventory in August was up 5.82 percent from the year before.

Multiple Listing Service includes Queens County in its Long Island housing statistics.

Neighboring Suffolk County also saw an increase in its median home sale price last month, though it was greater at 3.8 percent. The median price for Suffolk homes last month was $415,000, while the same month last year it was $400,000.

Meanwhile, Queens County recorded a 4.1 percent decrease in the median price of closed home sales, going down from $610,000 in August 2018 to $585,000 last month.

Curran announces downtown funding $1 million allocated to fund three transit-oriented development projects: county

BY R O S E W E L D ON Nassau County Executive Laura Curran has announced a funding initiative for transit-oriented development (TOD) projects for qualified municipalities across the county.

The funding comes as part of the federal Community Development Block Grant program received by the county each year, according to a news release from Curran’s office, and is meant to “support project costs and promote development that maximizes the amount of residential, business, and public open space within walking distance of public transportation.”

“Several villages have already championed and embraced our model of Nassau County as a place to ‘live, work, play’ with revitalized, walkable downtowns near transit that draw our young people and ultimately grows our tax base,” Curran said in the release.

“This funding may also be used to address growing pains of recent TOD development – from parking concerns, to traffic issues, to improvements to pedestrian safety.”

Nassau County has allocated $1 million for the initiative, the release says, intending to fund at least three

property acquisition and disposition, economic development, demolition and rehabilitations of acquired properties.

Due to its federal funding source, all submitted projects must meet the lowto-moderate income national objective

on either an areawide basis or through the creation of jobs. Submissions must also be able to reach completion in two years.

Villages can submit applications for funding until Oct. 18, with all submissions being reviewed by the county’s Office of Community Development. The release from Curran’s office adds that the office will “determine whether the proposed activity will lead to development that increases public transport ridership and promotes sustainable growth.”

The fund’s creation was met with approval from Eric Alexander, director of Vision Long Island, which has helped communities on the island revitalize their downtown areas.

“The growth of our Main Street business districts comes with the need for pedestrian amenities and placemaking opportunities that improve the experience of living, working and shopping downtown,” Alexander said. “The good news is that there are now many villages and unincorporated hamlets in Nassau County that have robust downtown revitalization and TOD programs that can take advantage of this funding opportunity with successful projects that will be well worth the investment.”

Senator right to slam Inn Remembering at NHP for NRA event 9/11 and honoring

A

s a resident of Sea Cliff, I would like to remind the editors of The Island Now that in 2018 Senator Jim Gaughran was designated a Gun Sense Candidate of Distinction by Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America and was instrumental in the passage of nine gun safety bills passed here in New York.

Senator Gaughran is an ally to the gun violence prevention movement and an advocate for keeping our communities safe while also respecting the Sec-

ond Amendment and the rights of responsible gun owners.

Make no mistake, the NRA is a reprehensible organization that has Mitch McConnell, as well as many other Senate Republicans in a stranglehold. The gun lobby has already thrown $1.6 million at the Senate Majority Leader this year in order to block the background checks bill.

It is horrifying to many residents of Nassau County that not only is the NRA raising funds in our backyard, but they are

raffling off firearms, including AR15 parts.

I join Senator Gaughran in shaming The Friends of the NRA and The Inn at New Hyde Park for supporting an organization the city of San Francisco has deemed a “Domestic Terror Group.”

Surely as a county: we are better than this.

There’s unfathomable hurt because you can’t imagine why anyone would destroy life like that— the anger.

Years pull away but I see the planes from my window fly into the buildings on a clear day because of the hurt—so many people,

I step through their doors into busy lobbies beyond all description and come to the milestones of living and the tangibles between them: They are beauty. All beauty.

The Logan Act and former Sec. John Kerry

T

he Logan Act, enacted January 30, 1799 is a United States Federal Law “that criminalizes negotiation by unauthorized persons with foreign governments having a dispute with the United States.” The intent behind the act is “to prevent unauthorized negotiations from undermining the government’s position”.

Text 18 U.S.C. Section 953.

Private correspondence with foreign governments Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign gov-

ernment or any officer of agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the Untied States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.

In April 2018, former Secretary of State John Kerry secretly met with the Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif.

When questioned Kerry admitted that he met with the Iranian Foreign Minister three or four times. In fact, Kerry was not authorized by the United States government.

Kerry’s actions were to en-

sure that the Iran nuclear deal negotiated by both him and former President Barack Obama remained intact. This attempt was done in direct violation of President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo terminating the Iran nuclear deal.

In essence, John Kerry was trying to undermine the measures of the Trump Administration. President Donald Trump said that former Secretary of State John Kerry should be prosecuted under the Logan Act for speaking with Iranian officials and criticizing his Iranian Policies. Both Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Sen. Marco Rubio are asking Attorney General William Barr to investigate whether former Secretary of

State John Kerry violated the Logan Act. This is not the first time that John Kerry has attempted to disparage the United States.

I have not forgotten John Kerr’s testimony on April 23, 1971 regarding the “Winter Soldier Investigation.”

Who can forget when he savaged our brave Soldiers to make a name for himself. Kerry testified that, “They told stories that at times they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Ghengis Khan, shot cattle

and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam”.

Is it any wonder why that when John Kerry ran for president the brave men he served with came forward to let the public know that they could never vote for a man whose persona was repugnant and unfit to serve. They came forward to speak of their Moral Outrage at a man who disgraced the Uniform they loved. John Kerry has not changed in all these years, he is still full of hubris and should now pay the price he so justly deserves.

EWSD showing lack of openness on N. Side fence

A

t its monthly meeting on Sept. 9, the East Williston School District continued to demonstrate a lack of openness with residents about its lawsuit against the Village of East Williston related to the installation of a fence at North Side School.

Although the School District gave a lengthy Powerpoint presentation on the timeline and status of the fence, it omitted critical facts and information!

It was only after residents strongly objected and peppered the school board with questions

and comments did it acknowledge these facts and subsequently stated that the documentation would be added to the district presentation and posted on-line.

Specifically, their presentation failed to include the following: The state Education Department sent a letter dated May 7, 2019, to the district stating that SED’s approval of the school’s building project “is separate and distinct from any local zoning approval” with specific reference to the fence and that “the district is advised to resolve any

potential local zoning issues… directly with the Village of East Williston.”

Instead of complying with the SED letter, the school district sued the Village of East Williston on June 28, 2019, demanding that the village withdraw a letter dated May 17, 2019, requesting that the school district conform to the Village Zoning code.

In spite of the pending lawsuit, the school district began constructing the fence in midAugust in total disregard of the SED letter and in total disregard of the Village of East Williston

zoning regulations.

On Aug. 23 the courts issued a Temporary Restraining Order immediately halting construction.

The school district appealed and its request for an emergency lifting of the TRO was denied and the case is still in progress.

Also, in response to a resident’s question, we learned that the District has incurred $56,000 in legal fees so far, the need for which is clearly questionable!

Why do the residents have to bring these facts to light?

The School District superinten-

dent and school board give the impression that they are not obligated to be open and forthcoming with the community and that they are above the laws and regulations of New York State and Village of East Williston.

In doing so, they are losing the public’s trust.

Please contact the school district and insist that they drop this costly and unnecessary lawsuit and comply with the village zoning regulations.

An example Rep. Omar should follow

I

would like to applaud Nicholas Haros Jr. who spoke about Rep. Omar’s statement at 9/11 ceremony, where she responded to the attack on 9/11 in the past as,” Some people did something.”

Nicholas was absolutely right where he said,” On that day, 19 Islamic terrorists members of al Qaeda killed 3,000 people and caused billions of dollars of economic damage.”

In my opinion, I totally agree. Rep. Omar was elected to serve all the people of this great nation and not just the few. She should learn to speak the truth as Nicholas Haros Jr. has done.

Now for that I say,” God bless you Nicholas and may God bless America.

N

ews that Ms.Veronique “Ronnie” Hakimis leavingher position as Metropolitan Transportation Authority managing directoris disappointing for MTA employees along with transportation riders, advocates, taxpayers and other funding agency partners.

Many including myself will look back in MTA history to point out thatMs.Hakim would have made an excellent choice to replace Joe Lhota as MTA President. In her current position as MTA managing director she played a major role in attempting to solve ongoing problems of running the nation’s largest public transit system.

As NYC Transit president, she ran the nations largest bus and subway system. She also served as Special Counsel at NYC Transit as well as executive vice president and president. As general counsel at the MTA Capital Construction, she worked on mega projects such as the Second Avenue Subway, Long Island Rail Road East Side Access to Grand Central Terminal and the #7 subway Hudson

Yards extension.

She has served as the Executive Director of New Jersey TRANSIT, the nation’s secondlargest transit agency. She also served as executive director of the New Jersey Turnpike Authority.

While working for both the MTA and NJ Transit, she never promised what could not be delivered. As they say in Brooklyn, her word was her bond. This gave her excellent credibility with other major funding agencies like the Federal Transit Administration.

The MTA is heavily dependent upon federal assistance for over $6 billion in formula and potentially $1 billion or more in discretionary competitive funding to support the MTA’s $32 billion 2015 – 2019 Five Year Capital Program. The same will be true for the next MTA $40 to $50 billion 2020 – 2024 Five Year Capital Program.

She made an excellent advocate for formula and potentially billions more in future Federal Transit Administration discretionary dollars.

Gov. Cuomo claims to be a

friend and advocate for women.

His actions speak otherwise as in this case he was mistaken in not selecting her as the first fulltime female MTA president.

Ms.Hakim could have broken the glass ceiling for women.

She was clearly better qualified for the position than current MTA President Pat Foye. She has consistently proven her experience to hit the ground running on behalf of commuters and taxpayers in whatever capacity during her career in the public transportation field.

I worked with her during my many years as Director of Operations and Program Management for the Federal Transit Administration Region 2 NY Office.She will be missed by all including those who had the privilege of working with her.

Dems: Focus on Markowitz’s leadership needed fixing Obamacare

by Holocaust Memorial

M

ost of my life I have been a Democrat but listening to the ultraliberal members of the party depresses me.

The debate on Thursday, 9/12/2019, contained a lot about health care in America.

Don’t the candidates who are in favor of the single-payer plan or Medicare-for-all realize it would overwhelm our medical system, even if adopted three years after their election?

We would not have enough doctors, nurses or hospitals to care for that many extra people.

Yes, Europe and other countries do have this type of health care

but people in those countries may wait two or three years for knee replacements or other non-emergency procedures.

Also, wealthy people would privately retain their own doctors to service them quickly and the middle class and poor would have to wait months or even years for medical services.

Democrats should wake up and take a more moderate approach on this subject, like building on and improving Obamacare.

Continued from Page 18 Steve’s leadership and his commitment to the Jewish and the broader community in Great Neck and on Long Island is an inspiration and a model to emulate. Steve’s leadership of the HMTC is vital, especially with the dangers of rising and rampant anti-Semitism in the US.

The Hebrew month of Elul has begun and the Jewish community has begun the countdown to the High Holidays of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

This is the season of heshbon hanefesh, spiritual introspection, of reviewing our deeds over the past year, and teshuva, spiritual return and renewal.

Jews around the world know that now is a time for self-examination so that we may strive to do better in the future.

I hope that this introspection leads to a constructive outcome.

Business&RealEstate

Are you concerned about a recession?

Well, we are continuing along into the longest economic expansion in U.S. history! But when will it end?

No one really can predict exactly when it will happen and the Presidential outcome in 2020, just might have an effect on whether this will happen. It’s not a matter of if it will happen, but when.

Most importantly, it will not be like the crash of 2008 due to easy lending and excessive inventory. Some of the policies that are in effect may not be the most beneficial to our economy down the line and have had a profound impact on other country’s economies, especially China.

Will it be survival of the fittest as to who wins this senseless tariff fight? Are we doing a “tit for tat,” when tariffs in the last hundred years never had a clear cut winner in the end?

Are our farmers better off right now or are the tariffs forcing many into bankruptcy, since China has stopped purchasing soybeans and other produce? Is that right? Yes, China has stolen some of our intellectual property and industrial secrets, but are tariffs the answer in providing the proper punishment, when

our farmers and business entrepreneurs are suffering more than China?

They may be able to hold out longer than we can. “It is potentially a self-inflictedwound type of recession,” said Tara Sinclair, an economist who studies business cycles at George Washington University.

“But how deep that gash goes depends on many other characteristics of the economy and the policy response thereafter.”

Fortunately, real estate has done very well in the last three out of five past recessions. As per CoreLogic, is a leading provider of consumer, financial and property data, analytics and services to business and government.

Here is how price appreciation faired in the past five recessions.

1.)

1980 +6.1 percent 2.)

1981 +3.1 percent 3.)

1991 -1.9 percent 4.)

2001 +6.6 percent 5.) 2008 -19.7 percent (due the collapse of the mortgage industry their sub-prime toxic loans) The next recession may be a soft one and the predictions are that home prices will increase this year and in 2020.

As per Keeping Current Matters, of six major housing sources, shows that a home

PHILIP A. RAICES Real Estate Watch

price appreciation survey will be approximately 4.1 percent in 2019 and 2.8 percent in 2020.

The mortgage bankers association predicts 4.7 percent in 2019 and 3.5 percent in 2020. Zelman and Associates predict 3.5 percent in 2019 and 3.2 percent in 2020. Freddie Mac predicts 3.4 percent 2019 and 2.5 percent in 2020. National Association of Realtors says 3.4 percent in 2019 and 3.3 percent in 2020.

Fannie Mae predicts 5.4 percent in 2019 and 3.7 percent in 2020.

As you can see, no source is predicting a downturn in price appreciation. Although the increases are much less than in past years, it still shows an up-

ward trend.

Due to uncertainty, some consumers may be waiting for prices to decrease, which based on the survey, doesn’t appear likely, so waiting will only cost more for the first time or moveup purchaser.

However, the luxury and higher-end market has seen a much more softening, due to excess inventory (and the S.A.L.T tax maximums of $10,000), due to overbuilding especially in New York City.

Consumer spending is still doing well (but not as hot as a few years ago) and accounts for two-thirds of our economy. Business spending and investment accounts for about fourteen percent of our economy and spending has slowed from the effect of the tariffs making imported goods more expensive. Unless there are major layoffs hiring freezes, cuts of overtime, a reduction in wages and incomes homeownership should still be a strong sector. The uncertainty as to when these tariffs might be eliminated or adjusted makes businesses become more conservative in their future outlook.

Business debt is at historic highs again, but luckily with lower borrowing rates (but if rates

were to go up that would be a real major issue).

Due to a slower economy interest rates were lowered, but I believe lowering rates again may not be the answer. Housing inventory is still not up to the normal six to seven-month levels.

So having more people be able to afford a home may not help if there is not enough inventory to satisfy their demand and this could possibly cause home price appreciation to potentially increase beyond the previously predicted statistics.

It’s the basic supply and demand economics. If the inventory is low and demand is higher, prices go up and if demand is reduced and supply increases then prices go lower. Builders are trying to catch up with demand, but only time will tell where the inventory will be. Although some negative sentiment and feelings might be festering out there about a recession, my professional opinion is to stop worrying and buy something, (especially with lower rates than in 2018, making it more affordable), for your family and/ or grow your roots within your community and over the long run, your real estate investment will be safer.

Leaving your money in the bank or in the stock market, I believe will be more unpredictable, especially if you are not a very savvy investor. However, perception can turn into reality if we focus too much on the worrisome news!

Port celebrates 31 years of pride Continued from Page 1 ers, Scout troops, local police, fire and rescue personnel, and new inductees into the Schreiber High School Athletic Hall of Fame.

Three members of Fire Medic Company No. 1, Lesley Culp, Beverly Reese and Carol Swiacki, served as parade grand marshals. The trio have all served as fire medic volunteers for 40 years.

The company assists Fire Department personnel by providing emergency medical services on fire and rescue calls. There were 3,800 fire calls in Port Washington last year, according to Ed Oldak, president of Fire Medic Company No. 1.

“I’m overwhelmed,” said Reese when asked how she felt about being honored.

Culp added, “This is the greatest event. I’m happy to be part of it.”

Firefighter Pete Prudenti, a 1978 graduate of Schreiber High School, drove the grand marshal car. Prudenti, a member of the Glen Cove Fire Department, was acclaimed at the parade reviewing stand for saving a woman’s life by donating a kidney at North Shore University Hospital earlier this year.

Port Washington School Superintendent Michael Hynes enthusiastically cheered on the students and teachers as they passed by in the parade. “This is a great event,” he said. “I am proud to be a part of this community.”

The day continued with a senior citi-

zen luncheon at Schreiber High followed by the homecoming football game. Unfortunately for Port fans, the home team fell to top-ranked Freeport by a score of 47-12.

The day’s activities concluded with a dinner dance at the Polish American Hall.

Growing in a ‘judgment-free zone’ Continued from Page 2 gestive heart failure at the age of 20 but said he thought “it wasn’t a bad thing, that this was going to lead me to understand something deeper in my life.”

Twenty-year-old Herz went to his rabbi, who could offer no answers for him, he said, and as a result, he connected with an Eastern meditation path which led him to spend two years in India studying meditation.

“That was my path for 25 years, studying yoga and meditation,” Herz said, and by the mid-90s, it had been a decade since he had stepped foot in any temple.

Herz spent a few services in the back row of the chabad house, and then after meeting Paltiel through a friend he began coming once or twice a year, he said.

Until 2006, when his daughter approached him asking why she wasn’t having a bat mitzvah, Herz said.

The two went to multiple synagogues and found it was either too late or too expensive to enroll, he said, but

when they went to Chabad of Port Washington, the rabbi enrolled her right away, free of cost.

And now, Herz said he couldn’t be happier with what he got involved in 13 years ago and sits as a member of Chabad of Port Washington’s board of directors.

His involvement with Chabad of Port Washington has not only improved his own life, Herz said, but the lives of his family and friends, many of whom have gotten involved with chabad themselves.

“The only people who don’t love this place are people who haven’t come in,” he said.

The Paltiels stress the importance of “no labels” at their house of worship, which they open to Jews of all denominations and also those who don’t practice Judaism at all.

“Because you are not being judged and everybody’s accepted for who they are,” Sara Paltiel said. “We believe that everybody connects to God with their own soul and is born perfect.”

Herz said that chabad’s teaching are

“very practical” in terms of how to live one’s life in 2019. A time, he said, when there is so much angst, confusion and disconnection throughout the world.

“It gives me a lot of comfort, clarity, purpose, mission, and I think that’s the case for many people,” he said.

Chabad of Port Washington offers a variety of programs for children, teens and adults. A “mini-Israel” room provides children with a sensory experience of Israel. Teens can get involved in chabad’s soccer and basketball programs and adults can learn Hebrew or attend “Daily Shmooze and Smear” after weekday services.

Celebrating the holidays with Chabad of Port Washington is free of charge and only requires an RSVP on the website, chabadpw.org. Members already have seats reserved and do not have to RSVP. Services are held throughout Rosh Hashana, Sept. 29 to Oct. 1, and Yom Kippur, Oct. 8-9, at the chabad house at 80 Shore Road in Port Washington.

The East Williston school district had five semifinalists: Karen H. Li, Madison A. Ramos, Trenton J. Wong, Alia I. Yamin and Sharon Zhong from the Wheatley School.

Chaminade High School had three

semifinalists: Connor J. Brandvold, Luke G. Russo and Peter Townley.

Megha Gopal was the sole semifinalist from New Hyde Park Memorial High School.

school and community activities, demonstrated leadership abilities, employment, and honors and awards received.”

From the approximate 16,000 semifinalists, 15,000 will be selected as finalists, with 7,600 being declared winners, splitting over $31 million in collegiate scholarships, according to the program’s website. The finalists will be announced in February, with the winners being declared starting in April and going through July.

In a newsletter, the village said that the village “commenced an article 78 proceeding in the Supreme Court of the State of New York” into the project’s approval by Empire State Development.

An Article 78 proceeding is used to appeal the decision of a state or local agency to the New York courts, according to LawNY. “The village was compelled to take this step because ESD failed to address the concerns of our residents and failed to mitigate the very real consequences to our village that will result from the massive size and scope of the project,” Longobardi said in the newsletter.

Jack Sterne, a spokesman for Empire State Development, said that the agency cannot comment on litigation, but said that the agency has been transparent, open to public comments and has adhered to all state laws.

Longobardi said the two parties are scheduled to meet in court Oct. 24.

Manorhaven ban on cell nodes

Continued from Page 1 After attempts to halt the construction of the tower, it was eventually completed in 2012, five years after it had been approved.

The village’s moratorium on marijuana is also set to expire on Oct. 25. It was set in place in anticipation of state legalization of the substance, according to Fielding.

He said because the state failed to legalize marijuana, however, there is no need for a village ordinance because it is already prohibited by the state.

“So we could let the moratorium expire,” he said.

The board agreed with both of Fielding’s suggestions: to impose a permanent resolution prohibiting cell nodes and allowing the village’s temporary morato-

rium on marijuana to expire on Oct. 25.

A public hearing on the village’s proposed prohibition of cell nodes will be held on Sept. 26.

In unrelated business, trustees discussed 32 proposed apartments at Haven Marina on Matinicock Avenue, which is to go before the village planning board at its Oct. 15 meeting.

Trustee Ken Kraft said the proposed apartments were brought to his attention

by Bill Rogel, superintendent of buildings, and he had concerns because the board had told residents there would be no building in the C-1 zoning district.

He said that Rogel informed him that the application was in the Business Overlay District. The overlay district comprises the C-1, C-2, C-3 and E-1 zoning districts and according to the village building

code, was designed to promote mixed-use development on top of existing businesses that are permitted in those districts.

“And to help retain historic/existing structures instead of replacing them,” as stated in the code.

Since the applicant is complying with the code of the business district, the proposal does not require any variances and therefore the applicant does not have to go before the village Board of Zoning Appeals and was approved by the village building inspector, Avena said.

Haven Marina is located on Manhasset Isle, an area of Manorhaven where residents have raised concerns about overcrowding. The village zoning board approved an application earlier this year for the construction of 16 apartments at 22 Sagamore Hill Drive.

Roslyn man attests to vape dangers Continued from Page 20 encountered over a dozen cases of lung disease in otherwise young and healthy individuals,” Iakovou said. “These patients presented similarly with symptoms of cough, fever and shortness of breath,

often associated with gastrointestinal symptoms. The majority reported vaping THC containing oils, but some were also using e-cigarettes containing nicotine, with or without THC.” Later that day, Cuomo issued an executive order banning the sale of flavored

e-cigarettes, citing a concern for public health and saying the products may affect the “great strides” made in reducing smoking in the state.

“The New York State Department of Health has received numerous reports from New York State physicians of severe

A restored 1963 Ferrari 250 SWB is one of the big-ticket lots at RAND Luxury’s Motorcar Auction at the Nassau County Museum of Art in Roslyn on Oct. 12.

Motorcar auction at art museum Continued from Page 22 to a degree, so it’s proper that they are showcased and being auctioned at the museum,” Rand said.

English automotive journalist, commentator and racer Guy Loveridge will serve as auctioneer at the event, which Rand says “will be run similar to a Sotheby’s auction.” While Rand said that

he wants to make the event the first of many, he recognized that its status as first of its kind does come with expectations.

“The auction houses that have come to New York in the past 10 years have all done the city,” Rand said. “We’re the first to be doing an auction on Long Island in at least 30 years, and that was done in

the Hamptons. We do have expansion plans to other cities in the Northeast, but we’re taking one step at a time.”

The auction will be held at the Nassau County Museum of Art in Roslyn on Saturday, Oct. 12, with a preview reception the day before. Bidder registration takes place at randluxury.com.

Manorhaven Mayor Jim Avena pulmonary (lung-related) illness among patients ranging from 15 to 46 years of age, totaling 54 cases,” the order reads.

A news release said the order was issued “to combat the increasing number of youth using vape products, largely driven by e-cigarette companies marketing flavors that are intended to get children addicted to nicotine.” Cuomo also noted the increasing number of underage youths who managed to acquire vaping pens.

“Manufacturers of fruit and candyflavored e-cigarettes are intentionally and recklessly targeting young people, and today we’re taking action to put an end to it,” Cuomo said. “At the same time, unscrupulous stores are knowingly selling vaping products to underage youth – those retailers are now on notice that we are ramping up enforcement and they will be caught and prosecuted.”

Local leaders have voiced support for the governor’s stance. Nassau County Executive Laura Curran and Town of Hempstead Supervisor Laura Gillen issued a joint statement on the action.

“The surge in e-cigarette use among teens and children has been undeniable and alarming, and we thank Governor Cuomo for taking this problem on with bold leadership,” the statement read.

“Both Nassau County and the Town of Hempstead are committed to protecting our children from a lifetime of nicotine addiction and the many associated health risks that e-cigarettes bring. We will continue fighting back against the big tobacco companies using aggressive marketing to get a whole new generation hooked on their toxic products.”

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported 380 confirmed cases of vaping-induced lung illnesses in 36 states and the U.S. Virgin Islands, including six deaths, last Thursday.

Doneson said he has thrown away his vaping pen.

“I’m thinking of these THC vaping pens as chronic suicide,” Doneson said.

“These things are not safe, they are killing people. If you are using them, throw them away immediately. If your kids are using them, just throw them away. They are dangerous.”

gun trafficking into jurisdictions with restrictive gun laws (instead, the NRA has been wanting Republicans to make the least restrictive laws, like open carry, valid in places a person travels to).

Pass Extreme Risk Protection Order legislation (Red Flag laws) preventing individuals who pose a risk to themselves or others from purchasing or possessing a firearm; establish stricter reporting requirements to prevent those deemed by a mental health professional to be a danger to themselves or others from purchasing a firearm (Obama had this; the Republicans rescinded it, but now attribute every gun crime to mental illness, without doing a lick about it).

Requiring training, licensing, registration (we require voter registration, don’t we), and a national database; require gun owners to have special liability insurance (like auto insurance, homeowners insurance).

Prosecute gun owners if guns are not secured and used to commit crime, violence; prosecute parents for negligent homicide if child gets hold of gun and kills someone or themselves.

And of course, pass universal background checks closing the private gun sales and gun-shows and online sales loopholes.

I’m willing to bet my life that these changes will save thousands of lives – multiple September 11ths – each year.

We are all living in fear. If unrestricted access to guns represents “liberty” and “freedom,” the rest of us are robbed of both “liberty” and “freedom,” forced to live behind walls and metal detectors. The growth industry in this country is Security, which takes resources away from actual education, healthcare, actual creative business pursuits. Meanwhile, the cost of gun violence – lost lives, lost productivity, health and remedial costs – skyrocket.

And that should end.

End gun violence. Now.

Continued from Page 18 More dystopian still is that the contributions that pay for these wasteful endeavors are themselves, tax-deductible.

However, not all is doom and gloom: You’ll be happy to know that costs are so beyond what people can afford to pay, hospital systems across the country are beefing up their debt collection departments and hiring staff, the better to harass the afflicted who they have bankrupted ever more effectively. Know why people are afraid of

socialized health care?

They think their tax dollars will have to fund $50,000 childbirths.

Not anymore, they won’t.

And of course, the political class follows the development money like a puppy, and the ramifications of the ditch they’re steering Nassau’s economy into never occurs to them. Because when it comes to public policy, you could drown these people in a puddle.

Lighthouse renovation Continued from Page 22 said Great Neck Park District Commissioner Robert Lincoln. “Thanks in part to many who have donated, we were able to begin the initial construction to help maintain this Long Island landmark.”

Atlantic Coast Dock Construction Corp. is taking the initial steps to reconstruct the dock, after winning the public bid for construction in April. After the financial contributions of government-issued grants, donations, and fundraising, the project’s cost totaled $606,000.

“The notice to proceed with construction was issued on Sept. 9,” town spokeswoman Carole Trottere said. “Physical work has already started with an expected project completion prior to end of year.”

The restorations come at a time where the lighthouse’s foundation has been worsening, with the shifting of the foundation blocks being a concern for the structure’s stability,

according to a town news release.

In addition, debris riddles the cracked main floor, and the top of the lighthouse is suffering from falling chimney bricks, and granite bowing out from the northern side.

“The installation of the dock is an important milestone for the future of the lighthouse,” said Lincoln. “Only when workers can efficiently transport materials onto the structure can we do the basic stabilization and repairs which are critical and need to begin right away.”

Trottere also confirmed that once the dock project has been completed, the next steps will be to work on the stabilization and repairs of the lighthouse, as well as ensuring it is weathertight.

The town acquired stewardship of the lighthouse from the U.S. Coast Guard in 2008, with plans to restore and preserve the property as an educational site for future generations, according to the town.

Continued from Page 10 the opiate crisis.

“I will say as the debate rages on nationally about immigration policy and walls and borders and everything else like that,” Reynolds said, “we know there’s a whole bunch of kids and families sometimes who have been separated who have landed right here in Nassau County who need our help, regardless of the politics.”

The organization has grown far beyond its original purpose as an orphanage in Mineola. Mastin said, “Our offices are in Mineola, but we’re a Long Island nonprofit.” The association also offers help for addiction prevention, senior assistance, family

services, residential services, and mental health and wellness, Mastin said.

In a speech at the ceremony, Nassau Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder said that there is “nobody more engaged in the war on opiates” than Reynolds and the FCA. The ceremony was attended by various Long Island leaders including Mineola Mayor Scott Strauss, who gave the organization a proclamation, and County Comptroller Jack Schnirman, who gave a speech.

The ceremony ended with the FCA’s Lynn Vanderhall Nursery Co-op children singing “Happy Birthday.”

OUR TOWN

‘Love ya, man’ a sign of the times I think we may be at the beginning of a new cultural movement. I’ve noticed that men are now behaving in a new more open and affection manner towards each other.

I began noticing this kind of behavior about six months ago when I started to hear adult American men saying “love ya, man” as they said goodbye to their male peers. For reasons by no means clear, bromances are in and cool is out.

Men have always been quite reluctant to utter the magical word ‘love’ even if they were madly in love with their girlfriend or spouse.

But now the phrase is rolling off of the lips of CEO’s, bankers and many other hale hearty American men.

So why is this happening?

The Harvard poet Robert Bly started the men’s movement back in 1990s when he published his remarkable book “Iron John: A book about men” but his Iron John workshops of running through the woods and primal screaming didn’t seem to resonate too well and the movement died out pretty quickly.

The only role modeling of this type of softer male behavior is the 2009 comedy “I love you, man” starring Paul Rudd and Jason Segel. True it was a funny and profitable film but laughs don’t produce a cultural trend.

Last week I jokingly remarked to a patient that I have begun to hear this phrase between men and he was quick to reply to me “oh yeah, I say it all the time to my male friends.” And a female patient of mine who lives in the south said “Oh, that’s

definitely a New York thing.

I know a guy from New York who is always saying that.”

And it dawned on me what this new trend may be about.

The guys I often hear saying “love ya, man” are men who are extremely wealthy, successful and socially skilled.

We all know that success in business is contingent upon networking and social attunement but this takes social mirroring to a whole new level. This is what I call being disarming to the nth degree.

The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines love as “ the unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of an-

DR. TOM FERRARO Our Town

other as in the fatherly concern of God for humankind.”

Now that’s saying something.

Psychological researchers have traditionally described female traits to include nur-

turance, kindness, flexibility and compliance whereas men have been described as aggressive, competitive and cool.

Terms of affection and endearment between men has a European ring to it and that can’t be a bad thing. I recall Henry Miller saying parents do not say “I love you “ enough to their kids and Lenny Bruce said ‘there will never be enough I Love You’s.’

So let’s hear it for this new kind of alpha, metrosexual successful American male who is unafraid to enter the waters of love, softness and openness and has the amazing audacity to look at his busi-

Jay Hubbard of Club Champion and yours truly bromancing the stone at Pine Valley Golf Club

ness partner/client/customer in the eye and say boldly and proudly “love ya, man.”

Who would have guessed that the 21st century would bring us not only information overload and media addictions but also usher in a softening of the male psyche to the point where they are no longer afraid to proffer some kindness and affection when they feel like it.

Change is inevitable even when it comes to gender issues. Women have role models like Michelle Wie and Suzanne Pederson both of who are aggressive on the playing field but all sweetness elsewhere.

Who can the men use as their new role models of love, openness and kindness?

All I can come up with are The Beatles who were a great force for good during the peace movement of the ’60s.

The first nine words in their classic “All you need is love “ were “love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love.”

Fashion trends soon followed with bell bottoms, long hair and flower power.

But the Haight Ashbury summer of love came to a sudden ending at the Stone’s Altamont concert and with the Charles Mansion killings.

We may not be on the verge of a new love movement but as Lenny Bruce said who among us couldn’t do with a little more love and a little less fighting.

We may never see a time when every CEO in the land enjoys quiche, wears pink and likes Taylor Swift’s latest hit but maybe a few more “love ya, man’s” is a good start.
