‘Be the Change’: talks now online This spring, Adelphi University presented the third annual TEDxAdelphiUniversity series, centered on the theme “Be the Change.” Some of the major topics focused on healthy eating and community, including healthcare in the communities, how news is portrayed and reﬂected, healthier alternatives to common toxins, the use of aeroponic Tower Gardens, drug abuse prevention and more. The event featured talks by notable speakers including: Benjamin Dynkin has spent his career working to help defend the United States and its businesses from cyber threats. He is the cofounder and co-executive director of the American Cybersecurity Institute and the co-founder of Atlas Cybersecurity. Tracy Stopler is a registered dietitian and the nutrition director at NUTRITION E.T.C. She has been an adjunct nutrition professor at Adelphi University for 20 years and has published extensively on the topic of nutrition and exercise. She is also the campaign coordinator for the Enough Abuse on Long Island and has published an award-winning novel, The Ropes That Bind: Based on a True Story of Child Sexual Abuse.

Janine L. Bradley was born in Brooklyn and raised in Queens. She is a graduate of Jamaica High School, where she faced the struggles of attending night school so she could graduate on time. She is now the coordinator/principal of the Uniondale Alternative High School Program. Hannah Fons ’19 currently serves as senior editor at a small trade publishing company and is also a professional strength and conditioning coach at Five Points Academy in New York City. Hannah is a graduate student in the M.S.W. program at Adelphi University’s Manhattan Center, focusing on the care and concerns of LGBTQ

youth in general and transgender/ gender-divergent youth in particular. Anthony Guerne began his career in medicine in 1990 as an emergency medical technician and in 1994 he became a paramedic and began working in New York City. He is currently the Simulation Center technologist for the Adelphi University’s College of Nursing and Public Health and works for volunteer ﬁre departments on Long Island as a ﬁrst responder. Howard Robertson retired from the New York City Department of Correction after serving more than 22 years as a warden on Rikers Island.

He currently serves as the CEO of Airtight Solutions Inc. Robertson is now focused on keeping our youth out of gangs, away from drugs, reducing violence, and motivating them to become successful in life. Oscar Bruce, a Long Island native who graduated from Baruch College with a degree in public aﬀairs and a minor in AfricanAmerican and Latino studies, currently serves as a community organizer and workshop facilitator for the Pulse Center for Patient Safety – ASK For Your Life Campaign and has interned at Hunger Free America. His passion for writing has motivated him to become a spoken-word artist, and his goal is to empower people to advocate for themselves to achieve better healthcare outcomes. Karen Clements Roach is an award-winning journalist and founder of the news organization, Communities of Color News, which has been honored by the City of New York as a best business for Communities in Queens. The outlet has become a go-to source for community news for people of color that has the courage print what others will only say behind closed doors. “What made us diﬀerent as

a news organization was we were celebratory and not sensational,” said Roach. “This was something people of color didn’t regularly see, themselves represented positively and consistently in the news.” Beth Fiteni is the executive director of Green Inside and Out, a nonprofit whose mission it is to educate on matters of toxins and environmental health. She has a master’s in environmental law from Vermont Law School and has worked in multiple environmental positions such as Renewable Energy Long Island, Sustainability Institute at Molloy College and Beyond Pesticides.

Hot Rize’s blue grass at Landmark Tours of Dobro slide guitarist, singer and songwriter Abbie Gardner will kick off an evening of string instrument wizardry at the Jeanne Rimsky Theater when she joins bluegrass legends Hot Rize on Friday, June 15 at 8 p.m., the final show in Landmark on Main’s 2017-18 season. Back in April, Gardner stole the show when Red Molly and Ellis Paul rocked the theater at one of the season’s most memorable shows. Now, she returns to open for Hot Rize in a seasonending concert that will have the audience on its feet. Gardner, who toured with Red Molly for eleven years, grew up studying the classical flute, but eventually made the switch to Dobro, a type of American resonator guitar. After familiarizing herself with the Dobro, Gardner wrote her first full-length track in

2004. The track, called “My Crazy Dream,” earned her a spot in Hal Leonard’s 2009 book “The Jazz Singers: The Ultimate Guide.” In the years since the release of the song, Gardner has put out four successful CD albums of her own: Honey On My Grave (2006), Bad Nights and Better Days

(2008), Hope (2011), and Wishes On A Neon Sign (2018). “Abbie Gardner shows her prodigious writing chops in her album, Hope,” said Richard Cuccaro, a publisher for Acoustic Live. “Tales of love and loss, both gritty and sweet, ride the back of her by now familiar, formidable slide

guitar licks.” Since the release of her CD albums, Gardner has filled her trophy case with a number of distinct recognitions, including a second place finish at the 2006 Rocky Mountain Folks Festival Songwriter Showcase, the 2008 Lennon Folk Award for her song “The Mind of a Soldier,” and the 2008 American Songwriter Magazine Grand Prize Lyric for her song “I’d Rather Be.” Now, Gardner tours on her own, teaming up with other bands at different shows or dazzling audiences at her own gigs. Meanwhile, Hot Rize will bring some heat of their own. The band has no shortage of accomplishments since their formation in 1978, winning the International Bluegrass Association’s inaugural Entertainer of the Year Award in 1990, being tabbed as a Grammy nominee for the

Best Bluegrass Album in 1991, and taking home IBMA Song of the Year at one point. Since the band’s retirement in 1990, Hot Rize has taken the stage at occasional reunion shows, producing the culminating recording of “So Long of a Journey” (2002) in the process. No group in the history of the bluegrass genre has maintained the same members for as long as Hot Rize did from 1978 to 1998. Simply put, Hot Rize is a piece of musical history. Today, 21st century Hot Rize aims to deliver traditional bluegrass music to two generations’ worth of fans. Tickets for Hot Rize are available through Landmark’s box oﬃce by calling 516-767-6444 or going to www.landmarkonmainstreet.org. Landmark on Main Street is located at 232 Main St. in Port Washington.

Boz Scaggs at The Cradle-Con to Paramount June 26 make debut on L.I. Singer, songwriter and guitarist William Royce “Boz” Scaggs, who performed with the Steve Miller Band in the 1960s and gained fame with several solo hits in the ’70s, including “Lido Shuﬄe” and “Lowdown,” will be the headline performer at The Paramount on Tuesday, June 26 at 8 p.m. Scaggs will be playing songs from his new album, A Fool to Care. “I’m at a point where I’m having a lot of fun with music, more than ever,” Scaggs says about his latest work. “It’s like I’m just going wherever I want to go with it.” That sense of fun and willingness to wander in any musical direction is evident in the album’s twelve tracks. The inspirational heart of those songs lies in the sounds of Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma that played such a vital role in shaping Scaggs’ musical sensibility.

Custom Event Catering By Alexandra Troy

The music then evolves from the seductive New Orleans rumble of the title track to the wry social commentary of “Hell to Pay,” to the heartbreakingly wistful interpretation of The Band’s “Whispering Pines.” As he did on his previous album, Memphis (2013), Scaggs worked with producer Steve Jordan and a telepathic core band consisting of Jordan on drums, Willie Weeks on bass, Ray Parker, Jr. on rhythm guitar and Jim Cox on keyboards. “Steve works on a high energy level,” Scaggs says of his prized collaborator. “It’s relaxed and easy, but also very highly charged. His direction is laser-focused, and his playing is intense. It’s a whirlwind and he’s a strong leader, but it’s also lovely and loose and cool. That’s all a comfort to me. I’ve produced myself and I feel pretty solid in the studio, but it’s really nice for me not to have to do anything but help select the material and be free to be a singer and a guitar player.” The result of this collaboration is a concert experience sure to be enjoyed by Scaggs’ fans and a new generation of music lovers. For tickets to the show, go to www.paramountny.com or call 631-673-7300. The Paramount is located at 370 New York Ave. in Huntington.

Cradle-Con is Long Island’s newest comic, collectible, and pop culture convention — built for fans, by fans — that will take place on Saturday, June 23, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Sunday, June 24, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Cradle of Aviation Museum and Education Center has been host to many expos, conventions, and special events over the years.

The guest artists, vendors, and panelists have all been carefully curated to deliver an exceptional fan experience that showcases local talent, recognizes the diversity of a changing fan base, and is all about nostalgia and having fun among a community of clever, creative, and collaborative members. Its built

entirely around what the fans want.” The Cradle of Aviation Museum and Education Center’s awe-inspiring space — home to more than 75 planes and spacecraft representing over 100 years of aviation history and Long Island’s only Giant Screen Dome Theater — provides the perfect backdrop for this family-friendly event where cosplayers can take plenty of photos. Other highlights of the convention include: a live podcast with “Rick & Morty” Co-Creator Dan Harmon; comic artists Billy Tucci (“Shi,” “Heroes for Hire”), Mark Russell (“Flintstones”), Jennifer Hernandez (“Sonic the Hedgehog”), Somos Arte (“Ricanstruction”), Rich Drezen (“Luckyzilla”), and up-and-coming local artists Jay Stuart and Tom Velez; pop culture actors and voice actors Michael Bell (“X-Men,” “GI Joe,” “Call of Duty,” “Star Wars”), Larry Kenney (Lion-O on the “Thundercats”), and Michael Copon (“Power Rangers,” “One Tree Hill”); Jedi training and visits from 501st Legion Star Wars Cosplayers; cosplay costume contests for adults, teens, and children, with prizes including an Apple MacBook Pro and iPad; and a Retro Arcade Game Lounge featuring “Space Invaders,” “Pac Man,” “Star Wars,” and more.
