TOP STORY
State to get billions from bipartisan bill BY FRANK RIZZO
I
frizzo@antonmediagroup.com
t’s going to take lots of money to make up for decades of neglect and underfunding as well as preparing for the looming challenge of climate change on our nation’s “hard” infrastructure—roads, bridges, dams, water treatment plants and the like. That money will be now be forthcoming. Months of protracted negotiation and compromise have produced the $1.2 billion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), signed into law by President Joseph R. Biden on Nov. 15. It was a milestone that eluded several of Biden’s predecessors, who made grand plans but failed to craft a package to secure congressional approval, The American Society of Civil Engineers gave a grade of “C minus” to the nation’s infrastructure in its March 2021 report. IIJA will funnel up to $28 billion into New York State over five years. State officials will have discretionary spending authority to fund a long list of projects. As Senator Tim Kennedy (D–Buffalo), chair of the Transportation Committee, told the New York Times, the state “has more than 1,700 bridges and 7,300 miles of local roads and highways considered to be in poor condition.” All of New York’s Democratic representatives, as well as Democratic senators Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, voted in favor of the bill. Joining them were state Republican Congressmembers Andrew Garbarino of Sayville, John Katko of Camillus, Nicole Malliotakis of Staten Island and Tom Reed of Corning.
The State’s Share
According to various sources, these are the moneys the state will receive under the IIJA: Highway Funding: $12.5 billion • $11.5 billion for surface transportation • $1.9 billion to replace/repair bridges, 10 percent of which are in poor condition • $142 million for EV charging infrastructure Airport Funding: Nearly $1 billion • JFK–$294,682,575 • LaGuardia–$150,008,970 • Long Island MacArthur–$21,595,630
pass this critical legislation and I am thrilled it will finally be signed into law.” Actual implementation and disbursal of the funds involves long and complex negotiations and discussions among state, local and federal officials. There are also complicated funding formulas to navigate. But there is no doubt that the money will have a significant impact. At a press conference this summer, Senator Schumer stated that under the terms he negotiated in the Senate, he secured a $2.6 billion injection of funds for the Long Island Rail Road and commuter service. A press release announcing the conference noted that “Schumer will say that when he was leading the negotiations on this legislation that he was A PSEG-LI substation in Valley Stream.

• Resiliency: $34 million for fire resiliency and $28 million to protect against cyberattacks
New York Overview
According to the latest Report Card on infrastructure by the American Society of Civil Engineers: While the nation’s infrastructure earned a C- in the 2021 Report Card, New York faces infrastructure challenges of its own. For example, driving on roads in need of repair in New York costs each driver $625 per year, and 9.9 percent of bridges are rated structurally deficient. Drinking water needs in New York are an estimated
$22.8 billion. Four hundred and twenty-four dams are considered to be high-hazard potential. The state’s schools have an estimated capital expenditure gap of $2.91 billion. This deteriorating infrastructure impedes New York’s ability to compete in an increasingly global marketplace. Success in a 21st-century economy requires serious, sustained leadership on infrastructure investment at all levels of government. Delaying these investments only escalates the cost and risks of an aging infrastructure system, an option that the country, New York and families can no longer afford.

A Drive For Literacy
Jericho English teacher brings passion to the class room BY MADISON LEE
editorial@antonmediagroup.com
A
lthough officially a new hire this year, English teacher Ms. St. Clair-Fraser, or Ms. St. Clair to her students, has a history of working in Jericho Middle and High Schools filling in for absent teachers. Now, as a part-time faculty member, Ms. St. Clair uses her passion for teaching and writing to motivate herself and teach her students to the best of her ability. Before joining the Jericho faculty, Ms. St. Clair earned a graduate degree from SUNY Old Westbury College, located just down the road from Jericho High School. She said, “It has been a wonderful experience in terms of the teaching program there. I feel very well prepared.” After supporting the English Department last year as a leave replacement, Ms. St. Clair was hired this year at Jericho as a permanent substitute and teacher. Curriculum Associate for English Language Arts Dr. Salzman said, “Ms. St. ClairFraser is the best candidate for the role due to her evident passion for teaching and the diversity of experiences she brings to the Jericho community.” Ms. St. Clair began her work as a student-teacher at the Preparatory Academy for Writers. She said, “It
Ms. St. Clair-Fraser, the newly hired permanent substitute and teacher at Jericho High School. (Contributed photo from Jericho High School) was a really good experience working with that particular demographic. I think it prepared me for a diverse student body, culturally speaking.” After growing up in Brooklyn, Ms. St. Clair couldn’t wait to move back and work with The New York City Department of Education. Though she believes that Jericho is different from her past teaching environments, she appreciates Jericho’s
strong sense of community. She said, “I feel like Jericho is almost like its own family and I feel that it is very enriching to the teachers and the students.” The Jericho community has welcomed Ms. St. Clair greatly and appreciates all that she adds to the classroom. Sophomore Samantha D. added, “Ms. St. Clair is an amazing teacher. Her teaching methods are
very effective and I feel like I am undoubtedly improving in all aspects, especially in that of my reading, writing comprehension skills.” Ms. St. Clair wanted to become a teacher since her youth. She said, “I was alarmed by the literacy rates among the nation in comparison to other countries. Education and writing are very important to me, and I felt like I could contribute in some way, obviously not to fix the country, but contribute to solving that issue.” Since Ms. St. Clair’s arrival in the spring of the 2020-2021 school year, she has enjoyed the creative freedom as a teacher at Jericho. She said, “I feel the staff have always been supportive, so I would say that it has been a very welcoming atmosphere.” Ms. St. Clair has numerous hobbies that occupy her free time, and she specifically enjoys creative writing and cooking at home. She said, “I like to read a lot of self help.” She also enjoys dining out. Ms. St. Clair is interested in helping students outside the classroom by supporting clubs that are more focused on self-help and building relationships, as well as building self-esteem to enrich students as individuals. —Submitted by JerEcho, Jericho High School’s multimedia news site

Roslyn School District Honors Veterans S
tudents across the Roslyn School district were invited to wear red, white, and blue on Wednesday, November 10th to celebrate veterans and to thank them for their service. In addition to a generous display of American flags at front entrances, each school building found a unique way to show gratitude and respect for America’s veterans. Heights celebrated Veterans Day by teaching students about what it means to be a veteran. Students placed small American flags at both the Willow Street and Carlyle entrances. East Hills Elementary School hosted two assemblies on the morning of Wednesday, November 10th to honor three local veterans — Lieutenant Dennis O’Rourke, Lieutenant Commander Dr. Thomas Cushing, and Jonathan Wood.

Roslyn students thank Veterans (Photo courtesy of the Roslyn School District) and Superintendent Allison Brown, gathered around the flagpole in front of the school to hear the children sing “God Bless America,” and “America, the Beautiful.” The songs were followed by a performance of Taps by East Hills parent and professional trumpet player, Trevor Schaper. The veterans
shared their stories and backgrounds, and answered questions posed by the students. They were also given certificates of appreciation and thank you cards, crafted in class by students. At Harbor Hill Elementary School, under the direction of music teacher Dorothy Burns, students
from each grade level learned patriotic songs and performed them in front of the school. The songs were compiled into a wonderful video tribute, which was posted on the district website. At the beginning of period one at Roslyn Middle School, the entire building recited the
Pledge of Allegiance together, observed a moment of silence, and listened to “America, the Beautiful” played over the loudspeaker. Teachers invited students to raise questions about the meaning of Veterans Day and honored three school district staffers—Security Officer Steve McManus, Security Officer Angel Faria and Head of Security Keith Macias. Roslyn High School commemorated the service of America’s armed forces by holding a school-wide moment of silence at the conclusion of the Pledge of Allegiance during first period. This was followed by a performance of Taps, played over the public address system by senior Trevor Kim. Throughout the day, teachers were available to address any questions students had regarding Veterans Day. —Submitted by the Roslyn School District

Hicksville Water District Chairman Karl Schweitzer Seeks 2021 Reelection
Schweitzer hopes to bring knowledge and experience into another term
H
icksville Water District (HWD) Chairman Karl Schweitzer is seeking reelection this year to maintain a spot on the HWD Board of Commissioners, where he has served his community since first being elected in 2003. With nearly two decades of experience under his belt, Schweitzer brings a wealth of passion and knowledge of what it takes to provide residents with top quality water service. “Serving the Hicksville Water District has been one of the greatest honors of my life,” Schweitzer said. “While I am tremendously proud of everything we have accomplished during my tenure as chairman, there are still many challenges that lie ahead. If elected to another term, I plan on taking those challenges head on and doing everything I can to help our neighbors continue to prosper. Our community will not be disappointed.” Schweitzer has overseen the Hicksville Water District’s operations
during one of the most difficult times of its 100-year history. The emergence of 1,4-dioxane in the area’s water supply forced the board to shut down four wells and quickly find treatment options never before used by the district, as this emerging contaminant could not be treated by traditional methods. Under Schweitzer’s leadership, the district swiftly brought in Advanced Oxidation Process (AOP) and Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) equipment in an effort to ensure Hicksville’s water remains
as high quality as possible. The efforts have been successful, as treatment facilities were installed in the District’s Plant 9 last year and another is expected to be operational at Plant 8 by Summer 2022. Environmental health and safety is Schweitzer’s priority and his record proves that it is always at the forefront of his service. A perennial public servant, Schweitzer is also a third-generation firefighter and has been a member of the Hicksville Fire Department for more than 40 years. He has also served
as a committee member of the Old Courthouse Centennial Celebration and as co-chairman of the 350th anniversary celebration of the Robert Williams Purchase. He was also involved in the restoration of the Gregory Museum. For his dedication to his community, Schweitzer was named Citizen of the Year by the Hicksville Chamber of Commerce in 1998 and was honored by the Hicksville Community Council in 2006. Voters will have the opportunity to cast their ballots on Tuesday, Dec. 14, from 3 to 9 p.m. at Hicksville Fire Department Stations located on Levittown Parkway and East Marie Street. If residents choose to elect Schweitzer once again, he promises to take on the responsibility with the same commitment to his community he has shown for decades. —Submitted by the Hicksville Water District

Utility Scam Awareness: Learn The Telltale Signs PSEG Long Island has joined with Utilities United Against Scams (UUAS) to recognize the sixth annual Utility Scam Awareness campaign. National Scam Awareness Week is an advocacy and awareness campaign focused on educating customers and exposing the tactics used by scammers. “The pandemic has created financial hardship and escalated stress levels for many, many people, and that is a perfect environment for scammers to thrive,” said Rick Walden, PSEG Long Island’s vice president of customer services. “They create the impression of an urgent problem in the hopes that your panic will prevent you from seeing all the clues that they’re not who they appear to be. PSEG is not currently shutting off residential customers for nonpayment. PSEG wants to help all customers in arrears develop individualized payment agreements that will avert a shutoff and help them from falling too far behind. We participate in the UUAS awareness campaign to educate and help decrease the number of customers that fall victim to scammers.” More than 4,085 scam calls were reported in the first 10 months of 2021, down from the more than 4,300 calls reported at the same point in 2020. What customers should know about payment scams • Scammers impersonating PSEG most frequently threaten to shut off power immediately unless payment is made. • Many scammers use phone “spoofing” technology to make their number display on your phone as “PSEG Long Island.” • PSEG is not currently shutting off residential customers for nonpayment. • Customers can obtain state-mandated protections from shutoffs through Dec. 21 by calling 800-490-0021 and attesting to pandemic-related hardship. • PSEG will never request that customers use one specific method of payment. • Scammers typically want their victims to transfer money via a web-based payment service, a prepaid debit card. • PSEG does not accept web-based electronic payment services, prepaid debit cards or Bitcoin as payment. • Sometimes scammers will demand a deposit for a meter installation. PSEG does not require a deposit for installations. • If a customer has doubts about the call or an email—call 800-490-0025. Visit www.psegliny.com to learn more. —PSEG Long Island

Parents Rail At School Meeting BY CAROLINE RYAN

he Great Neck Public Schools Board of Education turned into a contentious debate last week following a lesson taught in an 11thgrade English Regents class at North High School. Board of Education President Rebecca Sassouni addressed the audience at the beginning of the meeting. Sassouni stated that since the reopening of schools this year the board had already received a number of comments regarding masking, social distancing, as well as “comments decrying demographic shifts alleging white supremacy, alleging anti-Semitism, alleging anti-Asian sentiment, comments expressing a variety of sincerely held religious beliefs from a variety of religions and other comments reflecting sincerely held ethical convictions about human sexuality.” “The board is aware that there are some concerns regarding allegations about some materials taught that are the subject of some controversy,” Sassouni said. “The board has already directed the administration to review how materials are selected

has advised the board that we may not comment about individual children or personnel.” Superintendent of Schools Dr. Teresa Prendergast then gave a statement regarding the materials in question. “We have seen excerpts pertaining to the materials introduced in an English 11 Regents class at North High school that were posted on social media,” Dr. Prendergast said. “While New York State law prohibits us from commenting on matters related to personnel, the district is actively reviewing these materials and will work collaboratively with our teachers and administrators to ensure that information is presented in a viewpoint neutral manner that stimulates critical thinking and reasoning skills.” During the public comment portion of the meeting, parents addressed the board with various concerns, but a large portion of the nearly four-hour board meeting was focused around what some parents referred to as “critical race theory or CRT,” being taught in the classroom. One parent stated that while she felt that the district should be encouraging the students to think critically, there is a difference between critical thinking and what was being taught in this classroom. “There is a major difference between teaching critical thinking and promulgating political ideology that is not based in with any historical value,” she said. “Thinking that is not based with any historical value but is only promoted to instill in our children hatred, the feeling that they are not worthy, division and having them believe that based on the color of their skin that they are inherently racist—there are children that come home to their parents crying believing that based on what is being taught in the classroom that they are not fair amongst other children.”
Another parent stated that an educator who pushes critical race theory singles out students of certain races and is a “contributor to a systemic type of bullying.” The parent further stressed the idea that schools need to be a safe space and any violation of that should require disciplinary action. “Tax-funded public schools should be a place where everyone can feel empowered by being proud of who they are,” he said. “Not a place where they are minimized and belittled. Critical race theory will destroy its innocent victim’s self esteems and self confidence. It is negativity and its very essence is racism.” While the majority of parents spoke against this teaching, some parents and teachers voiced to the board opposite opinions on the materials being taught in the classroom, stating that the materials provided students with critical thinking skills which fostered important discussions in the classroom. “We cannot learn about solutions without looking at problems,” one teacher said. “We learn from the past together to help us all navigate the present together and for them to succeed in the future. Our children will not thrive in a complex world of millions of people if they only hear one voice or see one view. Learning how to think critically about multiple resources is essential to their growth. “ “I have read the slides on the internet and I am here to tell the board that I am very proud that we have a teacher who is introducing the newest ideas,” one parent stated. “These slides are thought-provoking. I don’t believe they are indoctrination. But I am not here to either promote or denounce these slides because I believe in our professionals with their years of training. I believe they develop their curriculum carefully and I’m here to support them.” After a short recess, the meeting concluded with Sassouni stating that the board heard what everyone had to say and that they have been assured that the matter is being looked into. “We are asking for information and [we] have been assured that families will be brought in and will have the opportunity to speak with educators,” Sassouni stated. “It will be learned how various matters have gotten into curricula and how they are reviewed and it will be okay. We are not at odds. There is no arming the teachers—it’s not a battle.” What did you think of this article? Share your thoughts with me by email at: cryan@ antonmediagroup.com

Village Issues Statement
T
he Village is issuing this statement with respect to the application by 124 Middle Neck Realty LLC to give you the facts. As you are aware, the applicant has withdrawn the application, and has advised the Village that it intends to await the determination of pending requests from the community to designate the property as landmarked. We regret the anger, resentment, factual misstatements and mischaracterizations that have been generated from a procedure intended only to provide a process for public consideration of a development application that could have benefits for the Village. Other, existing, legal procedures for such a development application would not provide the Village with as much flexibility in considering such an application. The Village has always involved the community in the public hearing process for land use applications. Our residents have an invaluable role in, are an integral part of that process, and we will always welcome everyone’s participation. I and all of your Village Trustees cannot imagine any circumstance in which the Village would approve any application that is met with overwhelming opposition by our community. In this instance, following all applicable State and local law requirements, the Village enacted a local law to establish a particular procedure by which certain applications could be made. Even if that law had not been adopted, the property owner could have made the application under other procedures already available under State law, but under which the Village would have less flexibility in reviewing the application. Whether authorized by local law or State law, the required
228070 S
procedures always recognize and provide for notice to the public, and public hearing(s) with opportunity for our residents to be heard. As required by both the State law and applicable local law, the Village must review any such application, including its potential environmental and other impacts. The local law adopted by the Village did not obligate the Village to approve the development application in whole or in part. Of utmost importance to the Village, Local Law 3-21 established a procedure more advantageous to the Village than other procedures already available to the applicant. Upon the conclusion of the public hearing process, the Village Board of Trustees would be able to accept or reject the application, in whole or in part, and to include reasonable conditions if appropriate, without the applicant having a basis to challenge any action which it did not view as favorable. State law requires the Village to engage in environmental impact review for every land use application, and also requires the applicant to bear the Village’s costs of that environmental impact review. Under State law, the Village would be responsible for the costs for review of other aspects of an application. The applicant was also required to send out a legal notice to nearby properties in order for the Village to commence and conduct the public hearing(s). The applicant chose not to make a requested deposit payment, and chose not to send out the legal notice required for the public hearing. As a result, there was no jurisdiction to proceed with the hearing on Nov. 15. As already noted, the applicant instead chose to withdraw the application,

Regarding Middle Neck Road Application stating that it wishes to work with the community to put forth a plan which addresses the concerns of the community. As you are also aware, several requests have been made to the Village to issue a landmark designation for the building. The Landmark Commission will proceed with its review and make its recommendation and findings. Further details as to the process before the Landmark Commission, will be made available shortly. As provided in the Village Code, the Landmark Commission will determine whether to recommend to the Board of Trustees that the property be designated for landmark status, and the Board of Trustees will determine whether to accept or reject that recommendation. Property taxes are a central issue of public concern. Tax certiorari and grievance proceedings, especially for commercial properties, have been unpredictable and have had a negative impact on the Village’s budget. One of the advantages of the incentive zoning process is that it allows the Village Board of Trustees to impose conditions in any approval of an incentive zoning proposals which would protect the Village from tax certiorari or tax grievance petitions. In addition, other agencies (not the Village) have authority to grant tax abatements in proper cases. The Village has no authority to grant or deny them, nor does the Village have authority to prevent an authorized government body (such as an IDA) from granting them. If an IDA grants such abatements, the IDA sets the amounts of payments to be made to the Village over a period of years in lieu of property taxes, and for several years after an IDA approval such payments
would be less than the taxes otherwise due to the Village. The subject of a tax abatement possibly being granted by an IDA would be discussed as part of the hearing process. In the event the Village Board were to approve an incentive development application, legally permissible conditions related to a possible tax abatement application may be included to protect the Village from a loss of tax revenue. It saddens me to have to specifically address certain reckless falsehoods,
NOVEMBER 27
especially for those of you who know me personally. I and your entire Village Board of Trustees did not, have not and will not take anything of any value and did not, have not and will not take any deals with the applicant or any applicant. Any incentive use payment is not a bribe; any incentive required from the developer must be used solely for the benefit of the community. There is nothing to hide because there was no ‘deal,’ and only after a full public process can any application be approved
or rejected by the Village. The Village cannot, and will not, act precipitously and intends to follow all legal due process requirements. Let’s be respectful and maintain decorum, so that everyone has an opportunity to be heard, so that the process complies with legal requirements and is as fair as reasonably possible for everyone. —Steve Weinberg Mayor Village of Thomaston Read the full version of this story online at www.greatneckrecord.com

Expired or unwanted medications are properly disposed
T
he Plainview Water District (PWD) successfully hosted its fourth annual Pharmaceutical Take Back Day and collected over 320 pounds of unwanted or expired medications. These medications will now be disposed of properly in order to prevent them from making it into the community’s sole-source aquifer for drinking water. This District has now collected and properly disposed of more than 1,100 pounds of medications since it began this annual event four years ago. “Each year, we are so pleased to offer this opportunity to our residents as the turnout clearly represents a need for this type of service,” said PWD Chairman Marc Laykind. “The district’s Preserving Plainview initiative is important and we are so proud of the embrace it has had within the community. We look forward to continuing the offering of this event every year that provides so much benefit to our environment and water supply.” When someone improperly disposes of prescription and over-thecounter medicines, such as flushing them down the toilet or throwing them away in the garbage, there is a likelihood that the medications’ contents will ultimately make their way into the community waterways and water supply. If there is an elevated presence of toxins from pharmaceuticals in the groundwater, the district will have no choice but to invest in expensive treatment systems so the contaminants can be removed before they reach customers’ homes. “The response from the PlainviewOld Bethpage community has been tremendous by the amount
of pharmaceuticals disposed of this year,” said PWD Commissioner Amanda Field. “We continue to surpass the previous years’ collection totals and that is very encouraging that more and more residents see the importance of their proper disposal. Thank you to all those who took time out of their day to participate!” This year’s Pharmaceutical Take Back Day was once again held in partnership with the Nassau County Police Department. This anonymous, contactless drive-through event included social distancing and safety protocols which helped the District bolster participation. The event was held at the PWD headquarters at 10 Manetto Hill Road on Saturday, Oct. 23. “Protecting our water source from any potential harmful substances is something that requires a community-wide effort and one that this community has time and time again embraced,” said PWD Commissioner Andrew Bader. “Our environment and our waterways are in better shape due to those who participated this year and we look forward to seeing them and more of their neighbors next year.” For additional information about the Plainview Water District, please call 516-931-6469 or visit the Plainview Water District website at www.plainviewwater.org.

Plainview-Old Bethpage Sixth-Grader Becomes Published Author Student donates her book proceeds to disadvantaged children
P
lainview-Old Bethpage Central School District (POBCSD) sixth-grader Ria Arjun is celebrating a book she wrote that has now been published. Arjun, a student at Mattlin Middle School, wrote The Adventure Begins: A Collection of TEN Short Stories earlier this year when she was in the fifth grade. The book is a compilation of ten short stories which features different genres, intriguing characters, very unique plots and valuable morals. What is even more impressive than Arjun’s talented writing skills is what she is doing with the proceeds that come from her book sales. Arjun owns a private foundation called RALS Foundation which focuses on providing education to disadvantaged children and adolescents around the world. The proceeds from the sale of the
book go to the RALS Foundation; and recently, Arjun has graciously offered to donate a portion of her sales back to the Mattlin Middle School PTA as well. The book is available on Amazon and can be found by searching the title. The charismatic student also has her own YouTube channel where she discusses the RALS Foundation in further detail and inspires others to maintain a positive attitude. Visit YouTube.com and search RALS to find Arjun’s YouTube channel. —Submitted by Plainview-Old Bethpage Central School District Plainview-Old Bethpage sixthgrade student Ria Arjun author of The Adventure Begins: A Collection of TEN Short Stories.

Don’t minimize the significance of your healing process, but rather open your mind, heart, and spirit to new experiences. For example, Reiki, which is a Japanese form of spiritual energy, offers amazing healing from not only physical ailments, but also mental, emotional, and spiritual difficulties. I discovered Reiki during my grieving process. I have since become a Reiki master and animal Reiki practitioner. It has definitely changed my life for the better.

Realize that though your pet has crossed the rainbow bridge, their soul is still very much alive and connected to you. Consider sitting quietly and, in your mind and heart, simply reach out to them. You’ll likely be very comforted by the beautiful love and peace you receive in return. You might also consider utilizing the services of an animal communicator to deliver messages to, and receive messages from, your
pet. For some, this may sound farfetched, but believe me when I say that animal communication is very real. It has the potential to facilitate great healing.

With the intense loss we feel when a beloved pet transitions, it can feel like a tragedy. The “tragedy” is only one of perspective. Rejoice knowing that you loved your pet and helped them learn their life lessons—and they did the same for you. Find comfort and peace knowing that you provided them with love and friendship in a way that only you could—and they absolutely did the same for you. This makes their lives a wonderful success and anything but tragic. The thing is, our pets are more than just our friends, companions and protectors. They provide friendship, companionship, love and protection with an innocent joy and dedication that is both pure and unconditional. All they want in return is love. We, their human companions, naturally reciprocate this pure, innocent love and dedication. In other words, our pets bring out the very best in us. They help us tap into our highest spirits because they make it safe to love with a vulnerability that is rare in most human relationships. The struggle is worth it.

he James Gang did it again for MacArthur. James Napoli ran for two touchdowns and James Hegel caught a touchdown pass and made a game-ending interception as MacArthur defeated Mepham, 21-18, to win the Nassau Conference II semifinals. The Generals advanced to the County Championship game against Garden City, where MacArthur’s season ended with a 48-7 loss to Garden City. It was the third straight season the Generals fell to the Trojans in the finals. In MacArthur’s 47-21 regular-season win against the Pirates in October, Napoli rushed for 300 yards and Hegel had four interceptions. But the playoff rematch was much closer, with Mepham taking a slight lead into the fourth quarter. On a cold and windy night at Hofstra, Mepham was on the move in the game’s final possession, but Hegel sealed the win for MacArthur, making an interception with just 48 seconds remaining at his own 15-yard line. Offensively, Napoli scored on runs of two and five yards. Hegel hauled in a 47-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Ryan Muller and Matt Sarni added the extra point. Muller also had a

Lockhart Elementary School Honors The Heroes Schools are closed every year on Nov. 11 for Veterans Day and to help students understand why it is such an important day, Lockhart Elementary School in the Massapequa School District hosted a ceremony to honor the community’s veterans. Members of VFW Post 7763, AmVets Post 88 and other organizations were invited to Lockhart on Nov. 10 to be honored for their service and their sacrifices. Principal Dr. Michael Yannucci began by asking all veterans to rise for a round of applause. “Our country stays safe and free because of the brave men and women who protect it,” he said. “We are fortunate to have these heroes as our friends and neighbors.” Student speakers discussed the history and significance of Veterans Day, including why it is observed on Nov. 11. The chorus sang the National Anthem and “American Tears,” then invited the audience to join them for “God Bless America.” A representative from the Nassau County Police Department played “Taps” and music teacher Michael Molloy performed a medley of patriotic tunes on the bagpipes. Lockhart students and staff submitted pictures of veterans in their families for a virtual roll call. VFW Commander William Colfer explained that the veterans in attendance served in different branches of the military and during different eras of both peace and conflict, but what they had in common was a love for their country and respect for the American flag. The program concluded with a clap out, as veterans walked down the halls of Lockhart and were cheered by students dressed in red, white and blue. There was even a spontaneous chant of “U-S-A! U-S-A!” —Submitted by the Massapequa School District

Decluttering And Donating For The Holidays
How Junkluggers uses its business model to help charities BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO
dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com
T
he Chinese pseudoscience of feng shui is based on using forces to harmonize individuals with their surrounding environment. In the case of Junkluggers of Long Island, they practice their own version of it by helping customers haul away unwanted items be it from estate sales, hoarding situations, attic and basement cleanout or yard and waste removal. But rather than just making a beeline to the nearest dump or landfill, the Hicksville-based company makes a point of upcycling items whenever possible. Part of what makes this possible is Junkluggers’ active collaboration with a number of nonprofit organizations that include Habitat for Humanity Long Island and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Long Island. In addition, this year finds Junkluggers bringing Long Island Cares and Toys for Tots into the fold. And while the former has no direct relationship with the latter two, the eco-friendly junk removal company is registered as drop-off point for both Long Island Cares and Toys for Tots, where donations will be accepted at the Junkluggers Hicksville office through Dec. 16. In addition, the 35 employee-strong small business will also be contributing and collecting amongst themselves for both charities. And in keeping with the new normal created by the pandemic, Junkluggers is also attempting to collect donations from clients who have removal appointments to eliminate the need for them to leave their house to donate. While this team-up is kicking off for the first time this year, these initiatives follow on the heels of the relationship the company has formed with Habitat for Humanity of Suffolk, which began pre-pandemic according to company COO Kevin McGill. “We’ve been working with them since 2019,” McGill explained. “The real reason we work with them is that a lot of the reusable goods we get, particularly furniture or other building supplies, are donated to their ReStore in Ronkonkoma, where they resell those items to generate funds for Habitat for Humanity of Suffolk. Over the years, we’ve developed a close relationship with the organization and collaborated on a couple of

(Photos by Sarah Wigger) efforts that are community oriented. We’ve done a cleanup with them and a couple of one-off events. They are a good organization and they like to give back and do the right thing. We figured there is power in numbers, so we reached out to team up with them on top of our existing relationship and they were willing to collaborate with us on this and it gives us a bigger reach. It all gives us a little more notoriety and
recognition to be affiliated with an organization like Habitat for Humanity.” Junkluggers was first opened in 2004 and Junkluggers was the first franchise to open its doors in Nassau County in 2013. The company’s footprint eventually expanded into Suffolk County and Queens. Since connecting with Junkluggers three years ago, Habitat for Humanity and Big Brother Big Sister have been making weekly
visits to the Hicksville office to collect donations. This symbiotic relationship has proved to be a boon for Junkluggers, all the more given how much the company has grown during its eight years of operation. “We worked with a couple of smaller thrift stores that were associated with nonprofits, but their ability to take in materials was limited just on the sheer size of the stores and the amount we had,” McGill said. “Habitat has allowed us to have a reliable outlet to upcycle what we do have on a more scalable level so the amount they are able to take is much greater than some of the partners we’ve had in the past that we continue to work with. The level of business has increased since we were established, so we’re always looking for new charities willing to work with us on [upcycling] furniture or other household items that we’ve given second life to.” Junkluggers is located at 12A Commercial St. in Hicksville. For more information about the company, visit www.junkluggersoflongisland.com or call 516-226-2284.

Police Investigate Home Burglaries
T
he Garden City Police Department recently investigated two residential burglaries which occurred during the early evening hours on Nov. 11. During one incident, the suspect rang the doorbell and when there was no answer, walked around the home and found an unsecured door. The subject entered the home and removed numerous pieces of jewelry. In the other burglary, the subject(s) entered the residence by breaking a rear window and fled when it was discovered a resident was home. There was one item reported stolen from this home. These incidents appear to be part of an ongoing burglary pattern that has been prevalent in numerous north shore communities in Nassau County. The suspects check for residences that appear to be unoccupied, usually during early evening hours (5 to 9 p.m.). Homes having no lights or televisions on, at times when they are usually on, give the appearance they are unoccupied. In many evening burglaries, some homeowners leave their residence for just a short period of time without setting the alarm, leaving a door unlocked, and without leaving interior lights and/or televisions on. Considering this ongoing burglary pattern throughout Nassau County, additional marked and unmarked patrols will be deployed. In addition, Garden City Police Commissioner Kenneth Jackson offers the following recommendations: • If you have an alarm, use it at all times, even if you are leaving the residence for just a few minutes. • Trim overgrown shrubbery and trees where someone would be able to conceal themselves. • Check exterior lighting, this includes the back and sides of the home. Ensure they go on at dusk. • Check windows and door locks; make sure they are in working order. • Check your Ring camera or similar device when you receive a notification of activity near your home. • Keep all doors and windows locked when you are home, in the back yard, or away, even for just a few minutes. • Homeowners should consider additional locking devices specifically for sliding doors, as well as alarms. • Move and secure items that could be used to facilitate entry through ground floor windows. • Close your drapes, blinds and window treatments at night as a
deterrent. • Surveillance and alarm systems should be routinely checked to ensure proper operation. • Consider a panic alarm or keeping a telephone near the bed. • Leave an interior light on or use a timer. Leave a radio or television on when out of the house.
In many evening burglaries, some homeowners leave their residence for just a short period of time without setting the alarm, leaving a door unlocked, and without leaving interior lights and/or televisions on. • Discontinue any deliveries while away on business or vacation. • Ensure deliveries to your residence are removed promptly by a family member, friend, or neighbor. • Inventory, photograph and have an appraisal conducted on valuable items. • When approaching or leaving your home, be aware of suspicious persons or vehicles. • Varying your routine can be an additional deterrent.
• Do not enter your residence if you think someone may be inside; notify the police immediately. • If you hear or see someone in your home, exit if you can and discretely call the police right away. • Do not try to confront the intruder. • If a burglar does confront you, remain calm; comply with the burglars’ instructions. Remember your life is more valuable than your property. Try to memorize a description of the subject. When the subject leaves, call the Police immediately by dialing 911. • In addition to these recommendations, the Garden City Police Department urges all residents to be aware of suspicious activity around them, and call promptly during the following situations: • Call when your alarm or a neighbor’s house/car alarm goes off. • Call when there are suspicious noises or persons in your yard or a neighbor’s yard. • Call when you see a suspicious person and/or vehicle. • Call if a vehicle is observed continually driving up and down the street for no apparent reason. • Try to obtain a plate number and a good description of suspicious vehicles. • Try to obtain a good description of all suspicious persons and/or
possible suspects. • Call when you observe activity at a neighbor’s residence when you know they are away. • If you see a door or window to a neighbor’s residence ajar, open, or broken, call the police. • If you see a neighbor’s car door or window ajar, open, or broken, call the police. • Call when your dog barks where there is some type of activity outside, particularly in the evening or at night. Neighbors can help the Police in the prevention of burglaries and in the apprehension of suspects. There have been numerous incidents where the keen observation of residents has resulted in the apprehension of persons committing criminal acts. In addition, residents with surveillance systems are encouraged to notify the Police Department when it is possible their system recorded a crime or other suspicious activity either on their property, in the street, or on an adjacent property. Surveillance systems, such as video systems, Ring cameras, and Nest cameras, have proven to be significant tools in the prevention of criminal acts, as well as in the apprehension of suspects. —Submitted by the Village of Garden City

erricks High School recently welcomed four WWII veterans for a significant and educational event held in collaboration with English 12 classes. Tech Sergeant Gil Blum, Staff Sergeant Dominick Critelli, Corporal David Marshal and Seaman First Class Carl Tringali discussed their experiences protecting their country during the war. Blum, Critelli and Marshall served in the U.S. Army and Tringali served in the U.S. Navy. This initiative was spearheaded by teacher Brittany Ruisi, who was inspired by her sister’s work with a veteran’s hospital. She led students in writing letters of thanks in conjunction with Veteran’s Day and connected with the Honor Flight organization, which aims to send veterans to the Netherlands American Military Cemetery to visit graves of those
lost and participate in ceremonies through Mission Margraten Plus. The Herricks students are looking forward to finding more ways to support this effort, and the recent visit served as a first step. Students welcomed their guests, all of whom hold numerous medals as a result of their heroism and selfless actions. They then broke into small groups, and each veteran shared stories about the challenges faced, lessons learned, roles held, training, machinery, locations and more while serving the country. They also answered questions from students, who learned about the military civilian divide prior to this visit. The gymnasium, where the event was held, was decorated with posters conveying gratitude and appreciation. —Submitted by Herricks Public Schools

During her inaugural address to the Westbury community on Sept. 23, newly appointed Superintendent of Schools Dr. Tahira Dupree Chase made mention of Dr. Teresa Taylor Williams, a new addition to the staff. She spoke highly of her credentials in the field of psychology, which would serve the district well. It did not take long for Dr. Williams to live up to such expectations as she presided over the first in a series of parent workshops convened on Oct. 26 and 27 via Zoom. In introducing Dr. Williams, Superintendent Chase shared an excerpt from her bio, which included her being a career educator and mental health clinician and serving as a professor of psychology at the City University of New York. She also held numerous positions in private and public education and is a regular contributor to nationally aired programming as an

expert on mental health issues and social and emotional wellness. She has appeared on Fox 5, ABC TV, Good Morning America, GMA 3, and multiple radio and social media platforms. Dr. Chase also listed her various licensure and membership in professional bodies. The presentation was named “The Warning Signs of Childhood Depression and Anxiety,” and delved particularly into such manifestations in light of the COVID 19 pandemic; its impact and aftermath both on children, parents and educators. The first presentation focused mainly on grades 1 through 5 while the second concentrated on the upper grades, but both carefully examined the nuances, subtle and overt psychological changes that connected the dots and made sense of otherwise unexplained behaviors. Dr. Williams was very careful in explaining the
difference between anxiety and depression and the importance of identifying the symptoms since it is crucial in knowing when to seek help; the difference between feeling and emotion, which require discipline and which do not. She spent time talking about the crucial area of grades 1-5, middle childhood, and the challenges that this particular stage carries with it. Williams commented on the social and emotional well being of our adolescents; the impact of separation anxiety as it related to students going back into the classroom after the lockdown. She commented on the 21 percent increase in inappropriate behavior in the months of September and October attributed to mental health challenges, per stats provided by law enforcement. There are so many areas that Dr. Williams touched on and carefully and thoroughly explained that it is impossible for this brief summary to
do any degree of justice to, so I implore readers to visit the school district’s website, www.westburyschools. org and click on the Parent Workshop tab for recording of both webinars. It is important to state that throughout the presentations Dr. Williams stressed the importance of the parent/school connection and reminded parents that there are services available for parents and students and such services should be utilized. Dr. Chase commented on the relatively low number of participants that tuned in to both webinars; 27 on the first night and 18 on the second in a district of over 4,000 students. I contend that more people were trying to get on but gave up in frustration because I almost did. The IT department needs to make it much easier for users to access. How about a onestep prompt that takes one directly to the discussion? —Chester McGibbon

My, How You’ve Grown For some families, this might be the first time in a couple of years that everyone will be together for Thanksgiving and other upcoming holidays. COVID-19 concerns kept people away and though some zoomed last Thanksgiving, it wasn’t the same as being there. So there will be some surprises when the gathering takes place this year. One can anticipate grandma exclaiming, “My, how you’ve grown!” when encountering a grandchild. Of course that works both ways as the grandchild thinks (but doesn’t dare say) “My, how you’ve grown…old!” Because COVID-19 created an interruption in the more frequent family encounters, what used to be a gradual and often imperceptible change is now experienced as a major difference since the last time the folks were together. That gives us pause to consider how we’ve grown

over the past two years. Which of these sentences might apply to your family encounters? “My, how you’ve grown more generous!” “My, how you’ve grown more stubborn!” “My, how you’ve grown fatter!” “My, how you’ve grown more thoughtful!” “My, how you’ve grown more prejudiced!” “My, how you’ve grown more
beautiful!” “My, how you’ve grown so stupid!” “My, how you’ve grown in wisdom!” “My, how you’ve grown more talented!” “My, how you’ve grown more sensitive!” “My, how you’ve grown so apathetic!” “My, how you’ve grown in your kindness!” “My, how you’ve grown so courageous!” “My, how you’ve grown so distant!” And so it goes. We notice the ways in which people have changed over time and it makes us wonder what they’ve noticed about us since we’ve been back together. Actually, we have some influence over this. If we want to be perceived
as more kind and understanding, then we can look for the opportunities to show kindness and understanding. If we wish to be seen as more helpful, then let us ask those around us, “How can I help?”
you’ve grown in your ability to dialogue and share your concerns!” Or will they think, “My, what a hard-headed fool you’ve grown into!” After this time of distance, we ought not dread being with our family members, nor should they dread us. The frightening COVID-19 months we’re lived through give us a chance to really value each other now, to listen to each other, to appreciate who we’ve been missing. This holidays season is a chance for us to show others “how we’ve grown”. And let’s make it for the better.

Thanksgiving 2021: Time for Reflection, Gratitude And Thanks Each year, Thanksgiving provides us with an opportunity to give thanks for all of the blessings in our lives. Traditionally, this holiday is a time for family and friends to come together to share a festive meal, perhaps watch some football, and just enjoy each other’s company.

The light of faith that burned continuously in their hearts, as well as the Holy Temple in Jerusalem thousands of years ago, still shines bright in Jewish homes and synagogues today. The radiance of the Menorah serves as a sign of our Creator’s blessings, of the arduous efforts and countless
sacrifices made by Jewish people over the centuries, for the values of faith and freedom. Each night of the Festival of Lights, an additional candle is added to the Menorah increasing the glow brighter and stronger, signifying the ascension of faith and hope. The candles represent illumination, radiating a light that inspires others with the belief that our Heavenly father is the Creator and ruler of the world. Hanukkah reminds us of our ability to overpower the physical and spiritual darkness
normalcy has returned, and many of us will once again get together with those who are near and dear to us to celebrate Thanksgiving. Moreover, I have no doubt that many tables will toast to a newfound appreciation for all of the wonderful things that we have too often taken for granted. As the official kick-off to the holiday season, Thanksgiving also stirs up excitement and anticipation. Parents eagerly await the time they will spend with their college-aged sons and daughters, as younger children look forward to
their upcoming vacations. Surrounding yourself with loved ones and remembering special moments you’ve shared together exemplifies the season’s true meaning. No matter how difficult the last 20-plus months have been, my hope is that we all find something, or many things, to be thankful for! Personally, I have much to be thankful for including my family and friends and the wonderful memories I’ve been so fortunate to help create and share with them. I am especially grateful for the opportunity to continue
representing the citizens of Nassau County as your Legislator in the 14th legislative district; a hardworking, diverse community that I’m proud to be a part of. My sincerest wishes to everyone for a Happy Thanksgiving and a joyous and healthy holiday season ahead. God bless our county, state and country. The freedom to celebrate this holiday as we wish is the very least we can be grateful for. Laura Schaefer (R–Westbury) represents the 14th Legislative District in the Nassau County Legislature
we encounter. Often, we feel this dimness when we are surrounded by negativity or lack spirituality in our lives. Lighting candles gives power to the inner voice deep inside us that insists that we are an important part of our Creator’s plan. We are never alone because our connection to our Creator is universal. The Almighty is present in our homes, in our businesses and in our hearts. He is part of us, thus, we are always connected. Like the biblical Joseph, we should never fear uncertainty
or feel abandoned. We stay connected through our prayers, our dreams, our inner spark and our faith. It has been said that a small amount of light can remove a lot of darkness. At this time, when the world is still in so much confusion, we all have an obligation to light the candles of the Menorah and to be a genuine beacon of courage and hope. So during the Festival’s eight days, let us all be inspired by the light that is believed to bring about wonders
and overcome darkness. I invite everyone to join us at Congregation Beth Tikvah in Wantagh, as we celebrate Hanukkah with a memorable program for the entire family. There will be food, heartfelt music and many thanks offered to the Almighty for the continued blessings and miracles he bestows upon us. May the lights of Hanukkah enlighten your homes and warm your hearts, and may this holiday season be a time of hope, joy, unity and peace for all mankind. Amen. Happy Hanukkah.

Many special tributes were held throughout the Garden City Public Schools in honor of Veterans Day, which was nationally observed on Nov. 11. Visits from veterans, readalouds, art projects, letter-writing initiatives and class discussions are among the many activities that expressed appreciation and gratitude for those who have served. Hemlock welcomed several veterans who served as guest speakers and discussed their experiences on Nov. 10. Some of their young family members, who are students at Hemlock, enjoyed joining the presenters in the front of the classrooms as they shared their stories and explained the day’s significance.

MASSAPEQUA STUDENT RESEARCHER EARNS PERFECT SCORE Massapequa High School senior Sarah Popeck, with her exemplary performance on the Advanced Placement Research exam, earned a distinction shared by only a few hundred other students across the globe. Popeck not only received the top score of 5, but she was also one of only 375 students in the world to earn every possible point. AP Research is the second course in the College Board’s AP Capstone program. She took the introductory class, AP Seminar, as a sophomore with teachers Nicole Junjulas and David Summers before moving on to the more advanced research class as a junior with Valerie Domenech. In AP Research, students select topics of personal interest and work on the project for the duration of the school year. Their goal is to identify knowledge gaps and contribute new information on a subject. Popeck’s topic was the impact of social studies teachers on the advocacy and civic engagement of high school students. She conducted a survey of students from multiple high schools and then analyzed her data. Popeck said she learned that when teachers foster intellectual discussions and make strong connections between historical events and the present day, students are more likely to be active citizens. She is very active herself, serving as the Northeast regional technologist for a nonprofit organization aimed at gun violence prevention and said her involvement is the result of having very engaging social studies teachers. “I loved discovering something that wasn’t known yet,” she said. “Research is so important because we can close that gap of knowledge. All the work that I was putting in over the year has paid off.” While projects are done

independently, students do have guidance along the way. Teacher Dana Robbins served as her expert adviser and Christopher Diehl provided mentorship for statistical analysis. Popeck earned every possible point on both her paper, which was scored by the College Board, and her oral defense, which was presented in front of a panel of Massapequa educators. Social Studies Curriculum Associate Dr. Brian Trapani, who oversees the AP Capstone program, said that the oral defense is extremely challenging because students not only have to prepare a strong presentation but they also have to answer follow-up questions from the panel. Beyond high school, Popeck hopes to continue to be involved in research and said the AP Capstone program has prepared her well for the future. At Massapequa High School, she is president of the history club, secretary of mathletes and a member of the French, National and Tri-M Music honor societies. —Submitted by the Massapequa School District
PLAINVIEW-OLD BETHPAGE ELEMENTARY STUDENTS LEARN TO CODE Students at Pasadena, Stratford Road, Judy Jacobs-Parkway and Old Bethpage Elementary Schools in the Plainview-Old Bethpage Central School District have begun a venture into the world of coding using the program kidOYO, a platform that allows students to encounter experiences that embrace computational thinking, problem solving, and iteration. KidOYO helps younger students leverage the computer science skills that they are interested in pursuing and introduces them to technology, and specifically the ability to code programs, games and apps, which is becoming an increasingly more important skill to develop. “Student engagement is at its peak in our coding classrooms this year,” K-4 STEAM Coordinator and Districtwide elementary kidOYO coach Rachel Lindsey said. “The students are learning coding language, basic skill sets, strategies to debug codes and are earning mastery badges
for their efforts from the program, which they love to show off.” The step-by-step process provided by kidOYO’s Color-by-Code platform, together with the assistance provided by Lindsey, who guides students through personalized learning pathways, is building confidence in elementary students’ coding abilities. The Plainview-Old Bethpage Central School District’s objective is to guarantee that children are prepared for the future by providing a firm foundation in the skillsets they will need for success in their education and beyond.

What made you interested in soccer in the first place? I was only three-yearsold when I became interested in soccer, so my interest stemmed from watching my older brother play before me.
Q

Q
Do you plan to play soccer in college? If so, have you decided which college you’re attending next year? All I want to do is play at the next level and I will end up doing so in college next year. I don’t know where that will be just yet, but I am looking to make my decision soon.
A
Q A
What is the easiest and hardest part of playing soccer for you? There is no easy part of playing soccer; every game has different
players to face and different moments to be a part of. It’s like doing improv all the time; you never know what you’re going to get so you have to adapt to the situation the best you can.
Q A
Are there any professional soccer players that inspire you? The one player that inspires me the most is the Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah. Despite being one of the best players in the world, he keeps to himself and stays humble.

The proposed use is for a “Low-Traffic Generating Business” that has been represented to function as a one-on-one virtual reality golf training center. The use is a “Special Use” that shall require authorization by the Village Board of Trustees in accordance with Article 1, Section 470-12C. (2). The current plan has no legal on-site parking so a variance from the requirements of Article III, Section 470-22 A. shall be required to legalize the use. The village code does not contain a specific parking category for “court type” uses so an occupancy and required parking calculation needs to be established. It is my recommendation based upon actual occupancies of similar facilities that the allocation of 1 car per every 2 people and 1 car for every employee be utilized. I calculated occupancy for this facility as follows: First Floor 6 simulator rooms @ 1.5 persons = 9 people 400 sf retail area @ 1 person/200sf = 2 people Second floor 1 Fitting Bay @ 1.5 persons = 1.5 people 1 Executive Bay @ 1.5 persons = 1.5 people 1 Simulator @ 1.5 persons = 1.5 people 1,334 sf Short Game @ 1 person/200sf = 7.0 people Bar Lounge Area 21 seats = 21 people Total patrons = 43.5 people (use 44) Total employees = 8.0 people Total Maximum Occupancy = 52 people

The required side yard setback in the R-2 district is 8’, the plans submitted did not indicate the distance but scaled from 2 to 2.5’ requiring relief of 6’ from the minimum zoning requirement. The applicant indicated a 6’ wood fence for screening. Section 47030C. (1) states “Constructed fences shall not exceed a height of more than four feet…..”. The existing fence to be maintained shall require relief of 2’ in height. Denied for the following reason(s): Article III Section 470-25D. (1) - Equipment in side yard Article III section 470-30C.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Love, like all mysteries, relies at least somewhat on what is hidden or cannot be known. But even scarier than that is love’s nature, which is uncontrollable. The instinct to monitor and hold it is counter to love’s essence. And so, you will do the brave and loving thing, which is to embrace uncertainty.

Making changes Solution: 16 Letters
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Autopilot mode prevents unhelpful stimuli from entering your realm. You get things done efficiently and without incident. Too much of this manner leads to boredom, staleness and an experience of the world as bloodless and sterile. Let in an agent of chaos to shake things up. Just one will be enough. CANCER (June 22-July 22). To live, as Will Rodgers suggested, “in such a way that you would not be ashamed to sell your parrot to the town gossip” is easy for you on certain days when people don’t challenge, tempt or bore you. But this week brings a variety pack. It will be harder to keep the parrot from having interesting things to say.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Everyone’s perceptions, sensitivities and focusing tendencies are different, which will be made apparent by this week’s interactions. It’s not only kind to be tolerant of one another’s quirks, it’s efficient. Small irritants are not worth wasting energy on. Ultimately, your easygoing style will prevail. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You can’t pay attention to everything at once. And if you could, the hyperawareness would lead to feeling overwhelmed and paranoid. You’ll perform best when you temper your expectations. Accept that you’ll move your focus between fewer than five things and doing well at one of them is enough. Let the rest go. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Inadequacy makes a person feel alone, yet it’s a quality shared by every person. We cannot be good at everything! We need one another. We are stronger as a tribe. Depend on your fellows and let them lean on you, and this week will go better than it ever could with you as the lone expert. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You are like a giant frond of seaweed in a kelp forest. So vast is your range, roots at the ocean’s floor and head on the water’s surface, that you can experience life at many depths, temperatures, moods and levels at the same time. With fluidity and resilience, you’ll move to the gentle currents of the week. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Keeping busy is one way to avoid unfinished emotional business and the accompanying feelings, yet when you stick with the uncomfortable feelings, you’ll find that what you’re running from can be quickly dealt with. Striving to be somewhere other than where you are is a robbery of the present moment. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It’s not always obvious to discern what’s helping the situation from what’s hurting it. Strength training is not always pleasurable, and in fact the work often hurts a little. It’s a less-than-optimum event that will point you toward the crucial information you need -- the thing that saves the day a month from now.
THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS
Richly rewarding relationships will be the treasure of your next 12 months. You’ve a distinct advantage as you apply your keen powers of observation to life’s joys and snarls. There’s no good thing you can’t make better nor a bad thing you can’t sort out. You’ll take in information about your surroundings without feeling the need to judge or rate what you’re observing, so you’ll see how things really are. From this place you’ll make inspired plans.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Last week, you knew “this is for me” or “not for me.” You knew just by looking and deciding; it took two seconds. This week brings a bemusing gift. You could stare at this offering endlessly and still not know. The uncertainty is exhilarating and disconcerting and will set you on a path of research and discovery.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ve used your talents to produce excellent work. You know what it’s like to get the high marks and praise. Maybe that’s what makes this week’s task easier for you. You’ll put your talent to use to make someone else look good. They need you, so you’ll deliver. You’ll be subsequently surprised by how this satisfies you.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). There is a size in which things become too much, and you’ll bump up against that limit in more than one area this week. Excessive food intake or talking -- those are easy to sense in yourself and others. But when is closeness too much? And how do you know when you’re overpaying? Stay aware and don’t be afraid to ask.

Jamming Good With Ukulele Sensation Jake Shimabukuro
LONG ISLAND WEEKLY
Famous Folks From The Aloha State Plenty of wealthy folks have moved to the 50th state later in life, but below are a list of people who can claim the Paradise of the Pacific as their place of birth.
BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO
dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com
Barack Obama Bruno Mars Bette Midler Jack Johnson Lauren Graham Nicole Kidman Jason Momoa Ron Darling Yvonne Elliman Kelly Preston —Dave Gil de Rubio
Far less obtrusive than an electric guitar, the ukulele is known for its delicate size and kitschy reputation. Enter Jake Shimabukuro, who has spent the past couple of decades expanding the boundaries of this unassuming instrument and found himself going viral via a video showcasing his version of The Beatles’ “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” on uke. It was enough to get the ball rolling for this native Hawaiian who quickly found himself being asked to collaborate with a number of high profile musicians including Yo-Yo Ma, Béla Fleck, Cyndi Lauper and Jimmy Buffett, the latter of which wrangled Shimabukuro into opening a number of tours for him. With his ability to have the ukulele transcend genres, this uke ambassador eventually found himself topping Billboard’s World Music and Contemporary Jazz charts, in addition to being the subject of the 2012 documentary, Jake Shimabukuro: Life on Four Strings.
H
aving started playing at the age of four when his mom placed the instrument in his small hands (“I can remember exactly which way I was facing, looking down at the ukulele and that feeling of my fingers running down the strings. It made such an impact.”), Shimabukuro is taking the next step to greater crossover success with the release of Jake & Friends, a 16-track project that takes a page out of Frank Sinatra’s wildly successful 1993 Duets album. Shimabukuro’s camp pulled out the stops in getting numerous big names on board ranging from Willie Nelson, Lukas Nelson, Ziggy Marley, Buffett and Yes’ Jon Anderson to fellow Hawaiians Jack Johnson and Bette Midler. And while Jake & Friends was completed during the pandemic lockdown, every song was cut live in the studio with the
exception of three (Anderson, Marley and Buffett). It was a feat four years in the making that was suggested by manager Dan Fletcher back in 2016. While the young uke player was jazzed by the idea, he had doubts this would get off the ground until Ray Benson of Western swing outfit Asleep At the Wheel, who was brought aboard as a producer, made a call to the Red Headed Stranger. “[Ray] called Willie Nelson, he said he’d do [the album] and two months later we were in the studio recording ‘Stardust,’” Shimabukuro recalled. “Once we had that track down, it gave the album credibility and momentum. Soon after that, we did tracks with Michael McDonald
and Bette Midler.” Given the fact the Fab Four had a connection in getting the Shimabukuro ukulele express going, The Beatles influence pops up throughout the album, with a handful of collaborations drawing from their canon, all which were guest requests. Marley chose “All You Need is Love,” a favorite live staple, Anderson went with “A Day In the Life,” married couple Vince Gill and Amy Grant chose the George Harrisonpenned “Something,” which was a pleasant surprise for Shimabukuro. “When Vince and I were talking, we were discussing songs and I know one of them was a Beach Boys song,” he explained. “Then Vince said that maybe we could do ‘Something’
because of George Harrison and his love of the ukulele. Then he wondered aloud if Amy could sing a duet with him. I said, ‘Yes please, let’s do that.’ I’ve never heard anyone sing that song as a duet and it works so well the way they do it.” Rebounding from being locked down by the pandemic, Shimabukuro is raring to do what he loves most— playing live. “The reason I love performing so much is because when I’m on stage, I know for those two hours, I can be so present in the moment with no distractions,” he said. “After every show, I’m beaming. It’s like a surfer when you catch the perfect wave. I’m just so grateful to be back performing in front of a live audience.” Visit www.longislandweekly.com to read a feature on Jake Shimabukuro and who his ukulele influences are.
