Dr. Mandal Brings Back House Calls in The Age of COVID

TOWN

By James Emery

House calls by doctors had been a thing of the past, but with an increased community need for personalized care in the wake of the COVID pandemic, Dr. Kumar S. Mandal has renewed this traditional service for the Bay Area.

“Our patients started having difficulties getting to the office, so we decided to come to them,” said Dr. Mandal’s office manager Anna Filoso, who is coordinating the new service, Suffolk Home Care. “Many of our seniors were afraid to come in and transportation became an issue.

Having the doctor make house calls is the perfect solution.”

To keep up with the growing demand, Dr. Mandal brought on

a new Physician Assistant, Karen Nuzio, who has been in the health care field since 2005. She has an extensive background in family medicine and geriatrics and is experienced in pediatrics which the office covers as well.

“I give every patient personalized healthcare advice and support, in a relaxed and unrushed manner,” the new PA said.

“I utilize the latest advancements in medicine and knowledge of the latest discoveries in medical research to help shape the care of my patients.”

The office, at the Coraci Boulevard Suites on William Floyd Parkway, is open for both the rapid COVID tests and the more detailed Polymerase Chain Reaction, or PCR test.

“We will also be providing the COVID vaccines when they become available,” Filoso said.

“Patients are advised to contact us and get on the schedule.

When the vaccines come in, we will administer them as quickly as possible.” The office can be reached at 631-281-2600.

Trained as a surgeon with a family practice in the Bay Area for more than 30 years, Dr. Mandal has been a mainstay in the community, and creation of Suffolk Home Care to make house calls shows his ongoing commitment. Dr. Mandal also emphasized the importance of fostering optimism and good humor with his patients. “These are key elements in the healing process.” Board certified in family medicine, Dr. Mandal also serves

at the Long Island Community Hospital in Patchogue, as well as the Brookhaven Health Care Facility and Island Nursing Home.

Anna Filoso has devoted her life to health care and is one of the friendly faces you’ll see in Dr. Mandal’s office. “We make a commitment to each patient and form a strong relationship, which is maintained until you are completely healed,” the MasticShirley native said. “Our lines of communication are maintained at all times by friendly, available office staff who provide fast direct access to your physician.”

Another friendly face is Catherine Tucker, an office administrator who has been with Dr. Mandal for more than five years. “Catherine is the most

Governor Cuomo Announces 1.5 Million New Yorkers Have Been Fully Vaccinated

150K Doses of COVID Vaccine Administered in 24 Hours As of Saturday, February 27th, New York’s Health Care Distribution Sites Have Administered 90% of First Doses Vaccine Dashboard Will Update Daily to Provide Updates on the State’s Vaccine Program; Go to ny.gov/vaccinetracker; Dashboard Now Includes Demographic Data Governor Cuomo announced this past weekend 1,554,103 New Yorkers are now fully vaccinated with a second dose. Additionally, 157,046 doses of COVID-19 vaccine have been administered in the last 24 hours. As of 1:00 PM today, New York’s health care distribution sites have administered 90 percent of first doses so far delivered. The week 11 allocation from the federal government is in the process of being delivered to providers for administration.

“New York’s vast distribution network has now immunized over 1.5 million New Yorkers which is really great news.

We’re working hard to keep up that momentum and get shots in arms of the entire eligible population, with special attention to Black, Hispanic and poor communities that have been among the hardest hit by COVID,” Governor Cuomo said.

“We’ve already seen a 70 percent increase in vaccine supply from the federal government. We hope

that number will only continue to increase but it will take time and we must not get complacent or cocky about COVID. I urge all New Yorkers to remain vigilant and keep taking steps we know work to protect themselves and others: wear a mask, social distance, avoid large gatherings.”

Approximately 10 million New Yorkers are currently eligible to receive the vaccine.

New York’s vast distribution network and large population of eligible individuals still far exceed the supply coming from the federal government. Due to limited supply, New Yorkers are encouraged to remain patient and are advised not to show up at vaccination sites without an appointment.

The ‘Am I Eligible’ screening tool has been updated for individuals with comorbidities and underlying conditions with new appointments released on a rolling basis over the next weeks. New Yorkers can use the following to show they are eligible:

Term Care Facility program. A breakdown of the data based on numbers reported to New York State as of 1:00 PM Saturday was as follows. Beginning week 9, allocation totals are inclusive of some excess vaccine doses that have been reallocated from the federal Long Term Care Facility program. The allocation totals include 66 percent of the week 11 allocation which will finish being distributed to New York provider sites on Sunday.

To date, New York’s health care distribution sites have administered 90 percent of first doses received from the federal government but due to the federal government’s limited allocation, appointments have filled up quickly. New Yorkers seeking to determine eligibility and schedule an appointment at a state-run mass vaccination site, can visit the ‘Am I Eligible’ website. New Yorkers may also call their local health department, pharmacy, doctor, or hospital for additional information and to

The COVID-19 Vaccine Tracker Dashboard is available to update New Yorkers on the distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine. The New York State Department of Health requires vaccinating facilities to report all COVID-19 vaccine administration data within 24 hours; the vaccine administration data on the dashboard is updated daily to reflect the most upto-date metrics in the state’s vaccination effort.

New Yorkers who suspect fraud in the vaccine distribution process can now call 833-VAXSCAM (833-829-7226) toll-free or email the state Department of Health at stopvaxfraud@health. ny.gov. Hotline staff will route complaints to the appropriate investigative agencies to ensure New Yorkers are not being taken advantage of as the State works to vaccinate the entire eligible population.

“I commend Dr. Mandal and his staff for their commitment

to our community,” said Assemblyman Joe DeStefano.

“Their services are of a very high caliber and now that they are also providing house calls, we are very fortunate to have them.”

Thiele Co-Sponsors Legislation to Establish a Vaccine Prioritization Appointment Process for People 75+ New York State Assemblyman Fred W. Thiele, Jr. announced that in an effort to affirmatively fix some of the issues related to the vaccine rollout, he has co-sponsored legislation introduced by Assembly Member Kenneth P. Zebrowski, to establish a vaccine prioritization appointment process for individuals over the age of seventy-five (75). This cohort of individuals, who are some of our most vulnerable New Yorkers, were given only one day of prioritization before the State opened up the eligibility list to millions of additional New Yorkers.

One of the biggest issues with the vaccine rollout has been the hodgepodge of providers and vaccine allocations. Individuals across the State are confused about where vaccines are being distributed in their community, how many are being distributed, who to contact, when to contact them and how to contact them. This bill seeks to remedy this by creating a more centralized process, starting with our most vulnerable populations.

Individuals over the age of 75 disproportionately lack access to, and expertise with computers and the internet, putting them at a disadvantage in scheduling COVID-19 vaccine appointments. If passed, this bill would direct the Department of Health (DOH) to provide eligible individuals with the opportunity

to schedule an appointment in a centralized manner, either online or by phone. The DOH would be able to direct any vaccine site (both public and private) to allocate a number or percentage of their vaccine allotment to provide appointment slots for these individuals.

Moreover, if enacted, the DOH would then have to report to the Legislature, no later than thirty (30) days after the enactment of this law, and every 30 days thereafter, on the number of vaccines administered to individuals over the age of 75 and the approximate number of eligible individuals remaining. Further, after the 30 days, the bill allows the Commissioner to identify additional population cohorts for prioritization following the previously established distribution schedule.

Assemblyman Thiele stated, “Currently, there is little correlation between public health need and getting a COVID vaccine appointment. Being computer savvy shouldn’t be the primary basis for getting the vaccine.

Now is the time to reform the current vaccine rollout system. I am pleased to join my colleague in sponsoring this important legislation that would prioritize our most vulnerable population and create a more centralized, efficient, and equitable vaccine distribution system.”

Cuomo Simmers in Hot Water as COVID Debacle Takes Center Stage

With the state legislature back in session, intense focus remains on Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s response to the COVID pandemic and efforts to cover up his mistakes in the face of a federal Department of Justice investigation.

“We had hoped to get some answers during hearings on this year’s budget, but the Cuomo administration would give us nothing,” reported Assemblyman Joe DeStefano.

“The budget hearings were delayed three weeks as it were and are not the COVID-specific hearings we requested. Nothing short of a federal investigation coupled with legislative hearings using subpoena powers will enable us to get to the bottom of what really happened as the death toll in state nursing homes rose to the highest in the nation.”

Although there was a public clamor demanding the nursing home details for months, the issue made national headlines when Attorney General Letitia James released the results of an investigation showing that the governor hid the true extent of elderly deaths in the state.

According to James, the number of deaths were almost double of what Cuomo had publicly admitted to.

Shortly after the attorney general’s report was released, the public was shocked by the details of a private call between the governor’s secretary, Melissa DeRosa, and Democrat legislators during which she admitted that the administration withheld nursing home data for political reasons as the Justice Department and FBI moved in.

One legislator on the call was Assemblyman Ron Kim of Queens

who described a “threatening” exchange he had with the governor after speaking out against him. “I was about to bathe my three kids when I received a call from the governor.

He spent ten minutes threatening my career and ordering me to issue a statement that would be used to cover for the state secretary,” Kim

Governor Andrew Cuomo was reported as saying. “Cuomo is an abuser,” Kim said. “He has abused his powers. Abusers are cowards.”

The administration has denied Kim’s claims.

The governor’s actions as the Coronavirus plagued New Yorkers have led to calls for him to resign and the creation of a special commission to impeach him. Legislators are also moving to take back the exclusive powers granted to Cuomo at the start of the pandemic and return them to the elected representatives.

Joining calls to conduct a full investigation into Cuomo’s handling of the crisis was another official of his

party, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. “I support our state’s return to co-equal governance and stand with our local officials calling for a full investigation of the Cuomo administration’s handling of nursing homes during COVID-19,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “Thousands of vulnerable New Yorkers lost their

lives in nursing homes throughout the pandemic. Their loved ones and the public deserve answers and transparency from their elected leadership, and the secretary to the governor’s remarks warrant a full investigation.”

Ocasio-Cortez’ comments echoed those of local officials who have been calling out Cuomo almost from the start of the pandemic. “For far too long, Andrew Cuomo has run amok, wreaking havoc across the State of New York, using intimidation to cover up his rich history of bullying, threats, intimidation and harassment,” said Congressman Lee

Zeldin. “Within his administration, Cuomo institutionalized widespread abuse, which silenced his many victims and allowed him to continue preying on those around him not just under the cover of darkness, but openly as well, in a way that underscores the arrogance that has become a hallmark of his reign.

If there’s one thing we’ve learned throughout his three terms in office, it’s that Andrew Cuomo will not accept responsibility for just about anything willingly. New York legislators, voters and the media must do everything we can to hold him accountable.” Zeldin said on national TV that he has been asked by constituents and many prominent political leaders to mount a challenge to Cuomo in 2022.

Adding to the governor’s woes was a New York Post headline last week, “Cuomo’s a Pig,” concerning sexual abuse allegations by Lindsey Boylan, his former deputy secretary for economic development. In a 1,700word essay, which Cuomo disputes, Boylan laid out in graphic detail the governor’s alleged abusive behavior toward her.

Outside of Cuomo’s political problems, lawmakers remain focused on key issues to move the state past the epidemic. “The emergency powers granted to the governor were temporary and we must return back to the system of checks and balances that has served this state well for more than two hundred years,” said Assemblywoman Jodi Giglio. “The legislators must be part of the decision-making process. We are the closest to the people and our ideas and concerns must be taken into consideration.”

Interested high school seniors and students currently enrolled in college are encouraged to apply for this award.

“I’m happy to announce these scholarships to students in my district.

Bellport HS Students Meet Best-Selling Author Mateo Askaripour

In celebration of Black History Month, Bellport High School students had the rare opportunity to attend a Google Meet presentation with South Country Central School District 2008 graduate and New York Times bestselling author Mateo Askaripour whose book, “Black Buck,” strongly resonates today with the nation’s black and brown communities.

Mr. Askaripour spoke to the students and faculty about the process of writing fiction and what spurred his writing of “Black Buck,” which tells the story of Darren who receives an opportunity to work for a technology startup as part of an elite sales team on the 36th floor in New York City. However, the cult-like atmosphere of his new workplace is not as it seems. After hitting a low point in his personal life and career, Darren eventually hatches a plan to assist

young people of color to infiltrate the American workforce.

“I wanted ‘Black Buck’ to redefine what it means to be black in the workplace,” Askaripour said. “My intended audience was the black and brown communities who are often the only people of color in a work environment.”

Askaripour also gave writing advice to aspiring writers. He explained that he never envisioned being an author, but that writing fiction has been his salvation.

“I wouldn’t be here without going to Bellport High School and having engaged in all types of learning,” Askaripour said. “Putting goals out there can make you feel naked, but it’s important to bet on yourself. I decided to bet on myself.”

Rising to the Challenge: William Floyd Learning Center Students Excel in New York Road Runners Events Shirley, NY, February 24, 2021 – Students at the William Floyd Learning Center have been participating in the Rising New York Road Runners (NYRR) club activities as a way to improve their physical fitness and learn new ways to stay healthy. As part of this endeavor, students, earlier this year, completed a bus loop marathon outside of their school as a way to challenge themselves to meet and surpass their fitness and running goals.

“All students, no matter their fitness ability, gave it their all and completed the race,” said Camelle Person, assistant principal, William Floyd Learning Center. “They had a great time challenging themselves to run their fastest and complete the virtual marathon challenge.”

Additionally, throughout the year, students continued to compete in various NYRR events including the virtual Coast-to-Coast Challenge, in which they virtually traveled to all 50 states to take on physical challenges related to the geography in each state – which also served as a fun and

educational journey.

As part of the culminating activity for their home state in the Coast-to-Coast Challenge, students participated in a climbing challenge in which kindergarten students had to climb and hold onto a rope for 10 seconds and then climb half way up and touch a marker. Those who successfully completed these challenges received special superhero-themed awards – a Spiderman certificate for climbing and a Hulk award for strength.

“Students are currently working toward hitting their 100-mile markers, making them eligible for NYRR medals,” said Ms. Person. “Our students continue to do a great job moving, earning their points, exercising and staying healthy.”

She added that one student also used this program to get in shape and shed nearly 40 pounds by eating healthier and staying active – “goals he probably would not have set for himself without the help of the NYRR program.”

Supervisor Ed Romaine said, “The Youth Bureau’s INTERFACE Program is continuing to help residents in need during the COVID-19 pandemic. I want to thank all the residents who contributed to this year’s coat drive. You have truly made a difference in the lives of those in need in Brookhaven Town.”

Councilman Michael Loguercio, the Town Board Liaison to the Youth Bureau said, “It is heartwarming to know how many people in Brookhaven Town are helped through the INTERFACE Program. Thank you to the Youth Bureau staff and all the generous residents whose kind-hearted donations will help keep Brookhaven residents in need warm this winter.”

The Youth Bureau INTERFACE Program is a partnership between individuals, good corporate neighbors, and the Town of Brookhaven united in a common effort to provide help to Brookhaven’s less fortunate

Suffolk County Court System Asks County to Name the Supreme Court Building at the John P. Cohalan, Jr. Court Complex After Suffolk County’s First African American Supreme Court Justice Central Islip, New York: At the request of Suffolk County District Administrative Judge Andrew A. Crecca, a Resolution has been introduced at the Suffolk County Legislature to name the Supreme Court Building located in the John P. Cohalan, Jr. Court Complex the Marquette L. Floyd Supreme Court Building. Former Supreme Court Justice Marquette L. Floyd dedicated 58 years of service to Suffolk County and our nation.

Through his perseverance, tenacity, and unwavering commitment to his community, he became the first judge of color in Suffolk County in 1969.

“Naming the Supreme Court building at the John P. Cohalan, Jr. Court Complex after the County’s first African American Justice is a fitting tribute to his legacy as a true pioneer of justice and equality – Judge Floyd is a source of inspiration to younger generations seeking to overcome racial bias and socio-economic adversity,” said Judge Crecca. “I am truly grateful to Legislator McCaffrey for introducing this Resolution at my request.”

Marquette L. Floyd was born to a single mother on October 14, 1928 in Winnsboro, South Carolina. He overcame inauspicious beginnings and the challenges of consistent and systemic racial discrimination to achieve a storied and successful legal career. When he was 16, his family left rural South Carolina for New York to seek

better opportunities. He attended White Plains High School after which he briefly attended New York University before joining the United States Air Force.

While in the military, he was denied admission to Officers Candidate School under the U.S. military policy of segregation.

The policy was not formally abolished until July 26, 1948

by President Harry S. Truman.

Despite these disadvantages, he served his country honorably for six years. Following his honorable discharge in 1954, Justice Floyd graduated from New York University and decided on a career in law. He attended Brooklyn Law School. While attending school, he was employed as a maintenance man, a clerk, a stock boy and in other odd jobs to pay his tuition. He was admitted to the bar in 1960 and entered private practice in Amityville, NY. Throughout his time in Suffolk County, he was active in politics, civic groups, assisted in forming charitable organizations and was, in all regards, deeply committed to his community. In 1969, he was elected to Suffolk County District Court and became the first person of color to sit on the Suffolk County bench. In 1986, Judge Floyd was appointed to the Suffolk County Court and, in 1989, was elected to New York State Supreme Court where he presided over significant civil cases until 2002. During his tenure as a Supreme Court Justice

he also served on the Appellate Term, Second Department, and in 2001, was designated its Presiding Justice. At the end of 2002, Justice Floyd retired from the bench.

Justice Floyd was a mentor to the youth in his community and remained committed to the advancement of people of color.

Justice Floyd died on December 12, 2020 at the age of 93.

Justice Floyd had been heard to say, “As a child I thought being rich meant having money and material things. Now I know being rich means the life you live and the legacy you leave.” District Administrative Judge Crecca said, “Justice Floyd is an inspiration to the residents of Suffolk County no matter what their race, socio-economic background or the circumstances of birth.

His dedication to community and commitment to justice and excellence are the pillars on which the courts stand. Marquette Floyd was truly a pioneer of justice.” “I was privileged to honor the request of Suffolk County District Administrative Judge Andrew A. Crecca to introduce Legislation naming the Supreme Court Building in the John P. Cohalan, Jr. Court Complex as the Marquette L. Floyd Supreme Court Building,” said Legislator McCaffrey. “His story and his life are an inspiration to all of us. I am proud to sponsor this legislation so that Judge Floyd’s name and accomplishments will never be forgotten.”

onto the road, with no attempt to dispose of it properly and a clear disregard for public health and the environment,” District Attorney Sini said. “Our communities are not landfills, and we will aggressively pursue anyone who thinks otherwise.

Today’s plea ensures that the cost of cleaning up this dumping site falls squarely on the perpetrator and not on Brookhaven taxpayers. I want to thank the Town of Brookhaven for their assistance in this investigation and swift action to clean up the site.”

“Illegal dumping is a serious crime and growing problem in the Town of Brookhaven,” said Town of Brookhaven Supervisor Ed Romaine. “As evident with this case, anyone responsible for dumping will be pursued and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. I thank District Attorney Sini for his steadfast pursuit of the people

responsible for this attack on our environment. Let this be a warning to those who might consider dumping illegally in the Town of Brookhaven. You will be caught, you will be fined and you could serve time in jail.”

At approximately 3:08 a.m. on Sept. 27, 2019, Schuster, while driving an R&G Dumpsters truck, illegally disposed of 20 cubic yards of mixed C&D and other solid waste material at a property owned by the Town of Brookhaven located on Lloyd Court in Lake Ronkonkoma. The solid waste included lumber, wood doors, wood and plastic fencing, plate glass and mirrors, cardboards, plastics, foam paddings, empty cement bags, gypsum drywall wallboard, scrap metals, and ceramics, including toilet, tub, and sink pieces.

Working in collaboration with the Suffolk County District

Attorney’s Office and Suffolk County Police Department, the Town of Brookhaven’s Highway Department cleaned up the property on Oct. 7, 2019.

Following an investigation, Schuster was arrested by detectives from the Suffolk County Police Department’s District Attorney’s Squad on Dec. 10, 2019. Schuster’s truck, a white 2000 Freightliner FL50, was seized.

Pursuant to the plea agreement, Schuster is required to pay $2,119.04 in restitution to the Town of Brookhaven for the cleanup and is required to forfeit his truck to the District Attorney’s Office.

Schuster is being represented

by Robert Macedonio.

This case is being prosecuted

by Assistant District Attorney Adriana Noyola, of the Enhanced Prosecution Bureau.

EDITORIAL

It was almost 30 years ago when local Legislator Herb Davis made the argument that term limits are necessary to prevent politicians from becoming entrenched and give new voices an opportunity to serve. Voters agreed and in 1994, they overwhelmingly approved term limits for Suffolk legislators. Since then, more than two dozen legislators have served their 12 years and have gone on to other things.

Fast forward to the present and now Kate Browning wants to circumvent history in an ill-advised attempt to return to the legislature.

The reason no one has ever come back is simple: the law set in motion by Herb Davis and the forward-thinking voters of the time does not allow it. There is no provision in the statute for a term-limited legislator like Kate Browning to leave office and then come back. If there was, every legislator affected by term limits could have simply resigned before election day and then never leave.

Former Suffolk County Legislator Kate Browning

The natural course of action envisioned by the proponents of term limits is for a legislator, if they believe they’re such an asset to the community, to run for something else. Many Suffolk officials have done just that serving new roles in both state and local government. In fact, Browning herself attempted to move on and lost in a primary election for Congress.

While Kate Browning was successfully elected to serve our area six times, she is not above the law. Term limits were put in place by the will of the voters and every legislator since then has honored their wishes. It would be entirely improper—and illegal—for Kate Browning to go against the voters for her own political purposes.

Long Island Electricity - The Decision Ahead

SUFFOLK CLOSEUP

BY KARL GROSSMAN The G in PSEG could stand for Goofy.

PSEG this month faces loss of the 12year contract it got in 2013 to operate Long Island’s electrical grid for the Long Island Power Authority. This stems from its massive failures during Tropical Storm Isaias in August 2020 when more than 500,000 of LIPA’s 1.1 million customers lost power, many for days, and communications with PSEG to report outages and find out what was happening were impossible.

As Governor Andrew Cuomo, who was central in getting PSEG to replace National Grid as LIPA’s private contractor—after National Grid’s major failures in Superstorm Sandy—said of PSEG’s Isaias performance: “Utility companies are beholden to ratepayers, and when that service is inadequate—or as in this case, a complete failure—those utilities need to be held accountable.”

LIPA is to make a decision later this month about going back to the original vision of LIPA when it was created by the state in 1986: being a full public utility operating Long Island’s electric grid itself and not jobbing that out to a private company. LIPA is also considering an alternative: strengthened provisions in its contract with PSEG. It should decide to be a full public

utility.

And, also, the state should restore another part of the original vision for LIPA—having LIPA’s trustees elected.

This would enable the Long Island public to control their public utility.

(Now LIPA trustees are appointed, five by the governor, and two each by the State Assembly speaker and State Senate president.)

and there was the problem concerning the mammoth amounts of water they need as coolant—a million gallons a minute for a standard nuclear power plant. So, what came to Mr. Eckert was the notion of putting nuclear power plants in the ocean. And that became

Opposition was increasing to building nuclear power plants in populated areas

PSEG’s scheme—a string of nuclear power plants in the Atlantic starting off of southern New Jersey running north to 20 miles off Long Island.

Sunrise Wind will be gathering soil samples to collect the data that will inform the detailed design of the onshore cable route and landfall. The survey work will begin as early as March 8th and is anticipated to be complete within 4-weeks.

Work will take place within the Town and County owned road right-of-way along portions of the following roads: Northern Blvd Mastic Blvd West Revlio Ave Victory Ave

I was driving along Dune Road near Hot Dog Beach in the Hamptons and noticed that a big meteorological station had suddenly popped up. On the chain link fence surrounding it was a sign

For example, before Isaias struck, LIPA was having an extremely tough time getting through to LIPA executives assigned to Long Island because they were in Puerto Rico as LIPA sought a contract to operate Puerto Rico’s electric grid. “If you wanted to contact the [PSEG] management team you had to call them in San Juan,” LIPA Chief Executive Tom Falcone told Newsday. PSEG didn’t get the Puerto Rican contract after all.

with the name of Brookhaven National Laboratory. I called BNL and was told it had set up the station because a company from New Jersey, PSEG, planned to site nuclear power plants in the Atlantic. A BNL spokesperson said the laboratory

had borrowed a 75-foot LST from the U.S. Navy and was also using aircraft and a trawler. Clouds of white smoke were being sent up to determine likely dispersal patterns of radioactivity from the floating PSEG nuclear power plants.

I was told the clouds, representing radioactivity, usually floated to Long Island because of prevailing winds being from the southwest.

PSEG convinced Westinghouse to manufacture the floating nuclear power plants. In 1970 Westinghouse set up Offshore Power Systems to construct them at a massive facility built on Blount Island off Jacksonville, Florida. The plants were to be towed up the Atlantic into position. In a book I wrote, Cover Up: What You Are Not Supposed to Know About Nuclear Power, I showed an Offshore Power Systems sales brochure and featured three pages on the project.

Offshore Power Systems went bust in 1984, after losing $180 million (in 1970s dollars) on the failed venture. PSEG itself, meanwhile, according to NJ Advance Media, “sunk millions into the project and [its] customers would spend the next 20 years paying off a large share of those costs.”

THE BETTOR ANGLE

TM

BY TOM BARTON The New York Rangers were a fashionable pick to win the Stanley Cup before the season for many bettors across the country.

The Blue Shirts opened with about 25 to 1 odds to win it all and was quickly bet down to right near 20 to 1. As of this writing they sit under .500 and can’t seem to find any groove at all. They have now fallen all the way back to as far as 66 to 1 in some SportsBooks and most have them at least 50 to 1.

The bettors have fallen off of the Rangers bandwagon but is there a rebound in sight? New York was a young team coming into the year and had all the makings of a team with upside, but they just can’t find their footing. They have had players released, suspended and all

sorts of off the ice problems on top of their play. The Tony DeAngelo fiasco was an utter mess, and the Panarin allegations also cloud this team but I see some hope.

New York, with all the doom and gloom, sit only a winning streak away from getting back into contention. With a good week or week and a half this team can throw their name right back in the mix and have Rangers fans smiling again. The pessimist sees a tough 7 game road stretch ahead but the optimist also sees a team who faces the teams they have to catch right in front of them for the next month.

The Rangers defense has stepped up and it could be the

The Rangers are Reeling strength this team needs. They are averaging 2 1/2 goals allowed per game, which ranks inside the top 10 in the league, and their penalty kill ranks just outside the top 5. Jacob Trouba leads the team in hits and is playing inspired hockey, K’Andre Miller may be young but he leads the team in takeaways, and Adam Fox has shown he can lead this team for years to come.

I don’t like the future’s bet to win the cup, that is too lofty a perch to even discuss. But I also am not throwing in the towel here that this team can’t push for a playoff spot. One thing is clear, the future looks bright for this young team.

Beneficiary Trusts: Creditor Protection using HEMs

I need to create a last will and testament and my friend suggested leaving my assets to my beneficiaries in trust using HEMS language. Is there a reason to do it this way instead of distributing assets outright? What does HEMS mean?

When creating a last will and testament or a living trust, there are certain planning techniques that can be advantageous to those who inherit your assets. One such technique is distributing assets to your beneficiaries in trust to provide them with creditor protection, which they would be unable to create for themselves.

The IRS rule is that when a trust limits the distribution of principal to an ascertainable standard, the trust is protected from creditors and divorce.

Limiting distributions to beneficiaries for their health, education, maintenance, or support (HEMS) falls within the IRS guidelines of an ascertainable standard that creates creditor protection for the beneficiary. While this type of trust may sound restrictive, HEMS is very broad and the trust can essentially be used to maintain the beneficiary’s lifestyle. The principal of the trust can be used to pay for the beneficiary’s schooling, rent, taxes, medical expenses

and more. Additionally, assets, such as a real property, can be bought directly in the name of the trust, thus protecting the assets immediately upon purchase.

Lastly, the beneficiary can be their own trustee and have the right to withdraw the income generated from the trust, all while maintaining creditor protected status.

large estate tax on the beneficiary’s death.

Another benefit is the ability for you

before the complete distribution of their trust. You can name individuals and/or charities as remainder beneficiaries of

Finally, if your beneficiary is unable to manage his or her own finances for any reason, you can name someone other than the beneficiary to be the Trustee and manage the trust assets. You can include specific instructions on how to administer the trust, thus ensuring that the beneficiary is properly taken care of and that assets in the trust will last for an extended period of time.

If you are concerned that a beneficiary may want or need access to the trust beyond HEMS distributions, or that the trust may become too burdensome or impractical to manage, your estate planning documents can provide for ways to either completely undo the trust or to authorize a distribution of principal beyond the beneficiary’s health, education, maintenance, or support.

Aside from creditor protection, there are additional benefits that come with beneficiary trusts. If, for example, there is a concern that a beneficiary may end up with a taxable estate, the beneficiary trust can be structured so that the assets are not includable in the beneficiary’s estate.

This could help reduce, if not eliminate, a

Because it is not always immediately clear whether a beneficiary trust or outright inheritance is the right distribution for your beneficiaries, it is important to meet with your estate planning attorney and provide them with as much information as possible in order for them to properly advise on the creation of your documents.

FROM A TO Z

BY ROBERT CHARTUK I received a rather startling call from American Express the other day: Someone applied for a credit card in my name and the fraud alert system flagged it because the address they used was different than mine. They did have my Social Security number. Thankfully, Amex didn’t issue the card and was very helpful in assisting me.

Because I once worked for the federal government, I was offered credit monitoring through MyIDCare after my personnel files were breached. I checked my credit history and sure enough, the Amex poach was on there, along with an attempt for a Capital One card.

There are three credit reporting companies in the U.S. and they keep intrusive records on all of our financial transactions. Through complex formulas, they assign us a credit score. This is a critical number since anyone who’s going to loan money for a credit card, mortgage, car, etc. is going to access this score before they make a decision.

Your credit score is a window into the type of person you are and its use is becoming increasingly widespread.

Perspective employers may want to see how worthy you are, or a landlord or utility company will want to size you up.

Your life can become more difficult—and expensive—depending on your score, especially if it tanks due to someone stealing your identity and running up some credit cards. You have to give permission for someone to access your score, but try getting anywhere if you deny them.

Identity Theft: A Growing Problem in the Pandemic future and have enough credit cards, I asked Experian to also place a “Freeze” on my credit. This is a good idea since my Social Security number is out there and I don’t need to spend another day

with each company individually. If I do apply for credit in the future, or need to grant access to my score, I can have the Freeze lifted. I’m wondering if having Alerts and Freeze also affects my rating.

Identity theft has been on the rise during the pandemic and all of us are vulnerable in the electronic age. I strongly urge everyone to sign up with a credit monitoring service. Sorry, you can’t use MyIDCare since it is exclusive to people who are in the federal system, but there are plenty of others out there. I also recommend that you request a copy of your Credit Report from one of the agencies and flag any suspicious activity.

You may also find incorrect items that are dragging down your credit score that you can get removed. It takes some time on the phone, but it is well worth it to keep your credit in order.

The fraud specialists at MyIDCare were very helpful and friendly. They called Capitol One with me on the line and had the credit card request cancelled.

They assured me that I would not be liable for any charges. They also removed the card request from my credit score since even an inquiry is part of the equation when they formulate your rating. Amex did the same thing.

Equifax is one of the three reporting companies and once I registered a “Fraud Alert” with them, it went to the other two, Experian and TransUnion. Now, if someone tries to apply for credit in my name, I will be alerted. Since I don’t plan on borrowing anything in the near

was 710, which is up seven points from the year before, so I guess we’re doing better with our finances. You can take steps to increase your score such as pay your bills on time and don’t rack up a lot of debt.

straightening things like this out. While the Fraud Alert is automatic for all three companies once its registered with Equifax, the Freeze has to be requested

Here are the numbers for the credit agencies. If you’re in doubt, call them.

Credit scores range up to 850 and anything over 800 is considered to be excellent. A good score is between 670739 while the average in the U.S. last year

OF MEN & ANGELS

BY DOMINICK FORTE Belief in angels is part of our culture.

It is as common as belief in God, belief in electricity or radium which are both invisible, or fear of Friday the 13th. Angels appear in pop music on a regular basis, on cards and wedding invitations, and on bric-a-brac and jewelry. They have been major subjects of art, literature, and drama from preRenaissance until present day.

through celestial messengers whose primary purpose is to praise and serve the Almighty Creator and execute His will. Before the input of modern science in the 17th century, angels were believed to move the stars and manipulate the universe for God. Gravity was not one of nature’s laws, it was the result of enlightened angelic activity.

In today’s era of sophisticated secularism some view belief in angels as ignorant superstition or unscientific twaddle, while others have attested to seeing or speaking with them. Belief in angels is rooted in monotheistic religions of Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and Zoroastrianism. All believe the cosmos is divided into Heaven, Earth, and Hell and is populated with humans, angels, and demons.

The very term angel derives from the Greek translation of the Hebrew mal’akh, meaning “shadow side of God,” which evolved into “messenger.” Refer to Genesis 18:14 where Abraham’s wife Sarah is told that she, although barren, will give birth to a son. Here the angel is unquestionably depicted as shadowy.

We can contrast these to the perception of the cosmos held by the Hindus and the Buddhists who have no belief in the existence of angels.

Their focus is on reincarnations of holy sages or incarnations of their gods. In Western traditions based on prayer rather than meditation angels are very important.

God’s

communicated

The primary importance of angels lies in what they do rather than what they are. They cannot be contemplated in any way other than in the context of their relationship to God. The best-known appearance of a shady character interfering in human events is the depicted angel in the narration of the sacrifice of Isaac by Abraham in Genesis 22.

A Swedish mystic and scientist Emanuel Swedenborg wrote a book on the afterlife, Heaven and Hell. In it he

states that although he is aware that the prevailing perception is that no mortal can possibly speak with angels he had indeed seen, heard, and felt them.

Today many who advocate the existence of angels project them as hanging around solely for our person

benefit. This is not totally accurate.

The reason Michael and the archangels in his entourage are converging on us here in Mastic Beach and elsewhere around the world is to serve as God’s messengers and instruments of his Divine Will. God has had enough.

He’s allowed us sufficient opportunity to straighten ourselves out. Now He is stepping in. This is why there have been recent reports of angelic and demonic activity in our area and why these reports should not be taken lightly.

That this Supplemental Summons is being filed pursuant to an order of the court dated December 21, 2020.

NOTICE-YOU ARE IN DANGER OF LOSING YOUR HOME – If you do not respond to this summons and complaint by serving a copy of the answer on the attorney for the mortgage company who filed this foreclosure proceeding against you and filing the answer with the court, a default judgment may be entered and you can lose your home.

You should be extremely careful about any such promises and any suggestions that you pay them a fee or sign over your deed. State law requires anyone offering such services for profit to enter into a contract which fully describes the services they will perform and fees they will charge, and which prohibits them from taking any money from you until they have completed all such promised services.

We are attempting to collect a debt. Any information obtained will be used for that purpose.
