TOP STORY

$1 Million Public Safety Initiative For Police Departments North Shore Nassau County Police Departments receive funding for new license plate reading devices

JULIE PRISCO

jprisco@antonmediagroup.com

n late October, Senator Anna Kaplan launched a $1,050,000 Public Safety Initiative to provide grants to Nassau County Police Departments on the North Shore. Improving public safety and preventing crime is a priority of local officials and police departments to keep residents safe. With a recent increase in auto thefts in North Shore communities, the grants given to the police departments will fund the purchase of license plate readers to help combat crime and solve cases. Bigger police departments in Nassau County have been able to invest in license plate readers. The expensive technology has been difficult to obtain for many local police departments on the North Shore. The goal of Senator Kaplan’s Public Safety Initiative is to help the smaller departments on the North Shore get license plate readers to increase the safety of communities by preventing and solving crimes. A press release from the office of Senator Kaplan provided a list of the seven local police departments receiving the grants. • Kensington • Kings Point • Lake Success • Great Neck Estates • Port Washington • Sands Point • Old Westbury The devices are high-tech computer-controlled camera systems that can be mounted on patrol vehicles or fixed locations such as busy street corners. According to a press release from the office of Senator Kaplan, the devices “read the license plates of passing vehicles and immediately cross-reference them with State DMV records and law enforcement databases to detect a vehicle that is stolen or was recently involved in a crime, as well as individuals wanted for outstanding criminal offenses.” “Our police deserve to have the best tools and resources at their disposal to fight crime and keep our communities safe, and I’m proud to always stand with them and provide them with the funding they need to do their jobs well,” said Senator Kaplan in a press release. “License plate readers are a cutting-edge tool that our law enforcement can use to catch criminals and solve crimes, and thanks to my new Public Safety Initiative, every local police department on

the North Shore of my district will now have access to this vital equipment.” Each of the seven North Shore police departments will receive a $150,000 grant to purchase the license plate reading device to install and help prevent auto thefts and other crimes in their communities. Mayor of the Village of Sands Point and the Sands Point Police Commissioner Peter Forman said, “Sands Point is grateful for a grant to allow us to continue to build out our public safety infrastructure, including enhancing our license plate readers (LPRs) especially with mobile LPRs in our patrol cars and with other progressive policing technologies.” Great Neck Estates Mayor William D. Warner, DDS, said, “My goal is always to ensure that our Police have the best tools to keep our community safe. Thanks to the new million-dollar Public Safety Initiative, which will provide our Village with $150,000 for public safety improvements, we have another tool

in our kit to fight crime here in the Village of Great Neck Estates and across the North Shore without asking local taxpayers to foot the bill. I’m grateful for Senator Kaplan’s leadership to bring license plate readers to our area, and I’m eager to work with her to get them up and running here in our Village.” On the Village of Great Neck Estates website, Chief Ricardo Moreno of the Great Neck Estates police department posted an advisory to make residents aware of the increase in car thefts. Luxury cars, SUVs and other vehicles with push start buttons and keyfobs have been the main target of auto thefts in Nassau County. “The thefts are occurring at all times of the day and night in which the car has been left unlocked and the key fob left in a vehicle equipped with a push button start,” reads the Great Neck Estates Police Department advisory. The Sands Point Police Department

shared on its website that “according to an independent research study, there are an average of 209 cars stolen each day with one common cause: the keys or key fobs were left inside the vehicle.” The Great Neck Estates Police Department shared some tips to avoid car thefts, listed below: • Never leave or hide a smart key, valet key, or spare key anywhere in or on your vehicle, no matter where you park it. • Always take your keys or fob with you. • Do not leave your car running with the keys in the ignition • If possible, park your vehicle in a locked garage. • Keep the exterior of homes and driveways well-illuminated. • Close all your vehicle windows completely when parked. • Secure your garage door opener to prevent access to your home.

BOOK REVIEW

The Politics Of Intimidation

Review of: Antifascism: The Course Of A Crusade, by Paul Gottfried.

JOSEPH SCOTCHIE jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com

n the post-Christian West, democracy is the reigning religion. Can the triumph of fascism be the end result of democratic elections? For the Western left, the answer, according to Paul Gottfried, is a shocking ‘yes.” For decades, the triumph of liberalism has been Gottfried’s main theme. His books focus on the lack of opposition from the right: a conservatism that conserves nothing. Antifascism analyzes the journey of a single word, one strong enough to take down entire nations and with it, an entire civilization. Gottfried’s family were refugees from 1930s Germany and the author devotes much study to his ancestral land. By the 1950s, German guilt over World War II

had subsided. Konrad Adenauer had guided the nation to the front lines of the Cold War. That changed in the late 1960s. “The Sixty Eighters” were radicalized by the Vietnam War. The left deemed that American involvement in that war smacked of fascism. Hence, Germany’s support for American military action might resurrect the fascism of old. For America, rewriting history proved decisive. That meant one period, the Reconstruction Era of 1865-1877. Most Americans don’t care to read about the 12-year carnival in graft. For decades, the prime historian was W.A. Dunning, a liberal New Englander who took an even-handed approach: Both whites and blacks suffered terribly during that decade. The poverty extended into the 20th century. In Dunning’s day, reconciliation between the regions was in the national interest. That America has long ended. Gottfried singles out Eric Foner’s 1988 revisionist history, Reconstruction, as a turning point. Now only one race suffered. In fact, revisionism over

Locust Valley New York

Paul Gottfried Reconstruction had taken place since the 1960s. What to do? The Western left, having lost the working classes, now demonized such people as fascist and racist. On deck were re-education programs, jail

time for those who uttered hate speech, outlawing political parties and finally, replacing the working class with immigration from the Global South. It was time, in Berthold Brecht’s words, to elect a whole new people. The left now had its 21st century constituency: College-educated cosmopolitans combined with the immigrant vote. Conservatives were stuck with a working-class that they don’t care about. The smoke is clearing from the right populist reaction, one that hit stride in the 1990s and continues. Their platform boils down to an opposition to immigration and a definition of the family as solely a Mom, Pop, children arrangement. Gottfried asks us to slow down: These two items hardly constitute fascism in action. The populist right parties do not seek to nationalize industries, shut down the media, assassinate political opponents or invade neighboring countries. But if the media and academics say it is fascist, then the author’s defense faces tough sledding.

Gottfried’s books usually involve a thorough study of the intellectuals: If conservatives had taken an unyielding stand, they would have paid a price in their professional lives, but they may have provided a language for feckless conservative parties in both North America and Western Europe to use on the stump. This book contains a chapter on the political prospects of the populist right. The author is predictably gloomy. He acknowledges Donald Trump’s feisty appeal, namely the broadsides on the “fake news media.” However, the Republican Party, especially in the United States Senate, remains a George W. Bush party: Free trade, perpetual war, mass immigration. Attempts to build populist politics in the United States around human propositions or a cult of democracy…may be an exercise in futility…Beliefs that all people “are created equal” and that everyone should speak English may not be enough to sustain such a force. “The mystic chords of memory” to which Abraham Lincoln appealed as a source of American togetherness may be now as frayed as they were on the eve of the Civil War. Western Europe? Not much hope there, either. Gottfried acknowledges the progress made by right populists across the continent. A wave or a ripple? The author chooses the latter. The postwar

immigration has already occurred. Added onto that are immigrant fertility rates. The left will maintain a voting bloc to keep the populist right under wraps. That leaves us with Eastern Europe. Here is where Western civilization makes its last stand. Gottfried has maintained that the Iron Curtain served inadvertently as a “protective shield” during the Cold War. While Western Europe and North America indulged in various liberation movements, Eastern Europe was generally immune. The Cold War is long over. While the West stands for legalized abortion, same sex marriage, immigration and multiculturalism, Eastern Europe extends tax credits so that women can have more children. They also keep their borders closed. Is it enough? As with all of Gottfried’s books, Antifascism is learned, exhaustive in scholarship, provocative, and readable. It also provokes many questions. Are the conclusions too pessimistic? The rise of the populist right has been impressive. In 2002, the Sweden Democrats scored all of two percent. Twenty years later, they are up to 21 percent and part of a ruling coalition. In 2001, Jean Marie Pen totaled only 18 percent in France’s presidential runoff. In 2021, his daughter, Marine, upped that to 42 percent. Why do freedom-loving peoples, not to mention”straight-talking” politicians, allow themselves to be intimidated by the media? Most of the surrender nations are nominally Protestants. Did guilt prevail?

In his 2002 book, Multiculturalism And The Politics of Guilt, Gottfried gets to the heart of the matter. In the Protestant religion, acknowledgment of guilt represents the road to salvation. And so, the West apologizes for its imperialist past by surrendering its borders, while exalting non-Western cultures and trashing its past by tearing down monuments and statues. Finally, how can the nations of Eastern Europe withstand the onslaught from the West? Nations in Western Europe are more populous, wealthier, and more powerful within the European Union. They’ll keep the pressure on traditionalist-inclined Eastern Europe. This book is slightly dated. Gottfried concentrates on Mario Salvini, leader of The League political party in Italy. In that country, it was Giogini Meloni’s Brothers of Italy that surpassed The League to win the recently completed national elections. Will Meloni succeed? Will the Sweden Democrats make a difference? Right populist parties have had real results in such countries as Switzerland, Austria, Denmark and Norway. Numbers are of the essence. Meloni’s coalition, which included The League, scored 44 percent in a multi-party race. Compare that to Viktor Orban’s Fidesz party that swept the field in Hungary with 52 percent.

Bethpage native is serving in the U.S. Navy where naval aviators learn the skills they need to fly missions around the world. Ensign Daniel Midgette, a 2017 Bethpage High School graduate, joined the Navy one year ago. “I joined the Navy to help people around the world,” said Midgette. Skills and values learned in the Navy are similar to those found in Bethpage. “I learned the ability to excel in a lot of things from my hometown,” said Midgette. “This has helped me succeed both professionally and personally.” Midgette serves as a student pilot with Naval Air Station (NAS) Corpus Christi, TX. NAS Corpus Christi provides service and facilities support of Chief of Naval Air Training and Corpus Christi Army Depot. “I enjoy meeting new people while at this command,” Midgette said. “The camaraderie in the aviation community is like no other.” The air training program focuses on the increased complexity of today’s aircraft. After successfully completing the rigorous program, naval aviators earn their coveted “Wings of Gold.” After graduation, pilots continue their training to learn how to fly a specific aircraft, such as the Navy’s F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter attack jet, the F-35 Lightning strike fighter jet or the SH-60 Seahawk helicopter. These aircraft take off from and land on Navy aircraft carriers at sea. Navy aircraft carriers are designed for a 50-year service life. When the air wing is embarked, the ship carries more than 70 attack fighter jets, helicopters and other aircraft, all of which take off from and land aboard the carrier at sea. With more than 5,000 sailors serving aboard, the aircraft carrier is a self-contained mobile airport. Aircraft carriers are often the first response to a global crisis because of their ability to operate freely in international waters anywhere on the world’s oceans. Since U.S.S Langley’s commissioning 100 years ago, the nation’s aircraft carriers and embarked carrier air wings have projected power, sustained sea control, bolstered deterrence, provided humanitarian assistance and disaster relief, and maintained enduring commitments worldwide. “The aircraft carrier is our U.S. Navy’s centerpiece, our flagship and a constant reminder to the rest of the world of our enduring maritime presence and influence,” said Rear Adm. James P. Downey, USN, program executive officer of aircraft carriers. “These ships touch every part of our Navy’s

mission to project power, ensure sea control, and deter our adversaries.” With more than 90 percent of all trade traveling by sea, and 95 percent of the world’s international phone and Internet traffic carried through fiber optic cables lying on the ocean floor, Navy officials continue to emphasize that the prosperity and security of the United States is directly linked to ready sailors and a strong Navy. “Maintaining the world’s best Navy is an investment in the security and prosperity of the United States, as well as the stability of our world,” said Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Mike Gilday. “The U.S. Navy— forward deployed and integrated with all elements of national power—deters conflict, strengthens our alliances and partnerships, and guarantees free and open access to the world’s oceans. As the United States responds to the security environment through integrated deterrence, our Navy must continue to deploy forward and campaign with a ready, capable, combat-credible fleet.” Serving in the Navy means Midgette is part of a team that is taking on new importance in America’s focus on rebuilding military readiness, strengthening alliances and reforming business practices in support of the National Defense Strategy. “The Navy can do things that other branches can not,” said Midgette. “The Navy has aircraft carriers and the ability to get closer to targets than any other branch.” Midgette has many opportunities to achieve accomplishments during military service. “My biggest accomplishment is being commissioned as a naval officer,” said Midgette. “This was an example of my hard work ethic and dedication coming to fruition.” As Midgette and other sailors continue to perform missions, they take pride in serving their country in the United States Navy. “Serving means being a part of something bigger than myself,” Midgette added.

Long Island Rail Road Modernization Made Possible By Labor The coming months mark the start of a new chapter for the Long Island Rail Road, one made possible by the men and women of labor. Projects once dismissed as pipe dreams, like Third Track and Grand Central Madison, are now becoming reality thanks to our members’ tireless work. They showed up day after day through a deadly pandemic to deliver progress for their fellow Long Islanders, and now we all get to reap the benefits. The new 9.8-mile Third Track is fully operational between Floral Park and Hicksville. Every grade crossing along that stretch has either been eliminated or had its railroad bridge raised so riders will no longer be inconvenienced by delays due to over height trucks crashing into them. And without crossing gates that stop traffic multiple times each day, cars and trucks will no longer sit idling for extended periods of time, leading to cleaner air and quieter neighborhoods. These benefits, combined with the opening of Grand Central Madison later this year, will allow the LIRR to significantly increase service across all 11 branches —by 58 percent during the morning rush and by 62 percent in the evening peak. And reverse commuting is finally going to be a realistic

alternative, with peak service from Manhattan increasing by a whopping 65 percent. This is huge for Long Island businesses, who will now have access to a much larger labor pool. Meantime, commuters to East Midtown will be able to save up to 40 minutes a day on their trips by going straight to Grand Central, where they’ll find a beautiful new eight-track terminal—the first new rail facility of its size to be opened in the United States since the early 1950s. It’s a stunning space that proves the men and women of labor can deliver big things. Look at what we’ve already done in Penn Station. The first phase of the new LIRR concourse opened last month to rave reviews. It’s practically unrecognizable: the corridors

are now double the width, illuminated ceilings have been raised to 18-feet high, and there are now multiple high-res displays with track information and new wayfinding signs. And by early next year, the concourse will have added four brand new elevators that increase accessibility and a new ventilation system to bring in more fresh air. Next up is the rest of existing Penn. Governor Hochul has

unveiled plans for a complete renovation that transforms the dungeon we all know and tolerate to a spacious and lightfilled station that we can all be proud to use. Union workers will be there every step of the way, as we always have been, to keep Long Island and New York moving full speed ahead. Anthony Simon is the SMART Union General Chairman

Enhancing Emotional Intimacy People tend to equate intimacy with sex. While physical intimacy is an important part of relationships, emotional intimacy is different. Emotional intimacy involves feeling safe to share your innermost wants, thoughts, desires and fears with your partner. It both deepens the connection and enhances the relationship and without emotional intimacy, couples may drift apart over time. Below are some important steps to help you increase the emotional intimacy in your most treasured relationships.

A New Year—A New Mindset—A Fresh Look At Faith There are incidents in the Bible illustrating the power of mindset. In the Song of Songs, King Solomon describes the mindset of a virtuous woman: “She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the law of kindness is on her tongue.” The way we internalize our mindset may affect the actions we take and the expectations we set for ourselves. What’s holding us back, many times, is our own thinking. If you think you’ve reached your limits, then you have. If you think the problem is too big, then it is. If you think you’ll never meet the right person, you probably won’t. Change your mindset. Start believing in the good, living life with hope and expecting better results. Remember that the Almighty can do anything. He took David, a shepherd boy from a low-income family and turned him into a king. He gave Abraham and Sarah a baby when they were nearing 100 years of age. One’s mindset has the power to be an instrument of peace—or to cut like a knife. While leading the people toward the promised

RABBI MOSHE WEISBLUM land of Israel in his final days, Moses eloquently delivers one of the most stirring orations in the Torah, encouraging the people and guiding them towards the future. As a child, Moses developed a speech impediment. To spare him embarrassment, his brother, Aaron, delivered many of Moses’s discourses. But, for his farewell address, Moses spoke directly to the people. His words to the Israelites were fierce and poetic, to better ensure that they will remember their covenant with their Creator. As Moses

speaks, we retrace the steps of his personal life journey and witness his spiritual growth. Moses shows us that even the very end of life is not too late to improve ourselves and call on others to change. From his early years as a stuttering toddler, to the moral tests of his youth in Pharaoh’s palace, to his trials as leader of a wandering people, to his ultimate, inspiring address to the nation at the threshold of the Holy Land, Moses demonstrates that a human being can overcome obstacles, and master fears. How is this accomplished? As Moses himself stresses in his final speech, one can exhibit patience, conquer hardships and achieve self-mastery simply by connecting to the Creator. What we say and how we say

it matters. A new mindset — the right choice of words and inflection — inspires and unites others. But proper mindset can also be achieved without words. We can communicate non-verbally, using our hands, eyes, body language and tone of voice. In today’s technological age, we communicate instantaneously through social media, e-mail, and our cell phones. We are never out of reach or out of touch. All of us have gone through disappointments and suffered setbacks that have caused us to lower our expectations and water down our dreams. We’ve let what hasn’t worked out for us serve as an excuse to settle for where we are. Instead of allowing our troubles to stymie us, we must trust that the challenges

our Creator places before us are only temporary, and that they are ultimately for our own good. After all, our Creator wants what’s best for us. We know that, as long as we are receptive to it, “The Almighty will open the windows of heaven and pour out blessings that [we] cannot contain.” Do you truly believe that will be the case, or is your thinking limiting your life? Don’t go into this new year with low expectations. Have a bigger vision. Get your hopes up! When undesirable thoughts intrude, “It’s too late. It’s been too long. It’s never going to happen. It’s just going to be an average year, with nothing good in store,”— change your mindset. Tell yourself, “This is going to be a blessed year, a bountiful year, a favor-filled year. Something good is going to happen to me and I can’t wait to experience it.” Like the ancient Israelites, believe that the fetters that have held you back have now been broken. Meet life with great anticipation because you’re about to go into your Promised Land. Amen.

How To Honor A Veteran

eterans Day, Nov. 11, is a day set aside to remember and recognize veterans who have served or who are currently serving to protect our freedoms. American Legion Auxiliary (ALA) units will be hosting special events in their communities nationwide to honor veterans. In addition to attending these events, there are simple things people can do to make a big difference in a veteran’s life on this special day.

Seek out Veterans Day events Attend a ceremony, parade or other special event in your community.

Offer help

Do you have a relative, friend, or neighbor who’s a veteran? Offer to help with household chores or yardwork.

Thank a vet

Thank veterans for their service. Write a thank-you card to show your gratitude. Both are small gestures that can make a huge impact.

Ask about their service

Ask a veteran about their time in the military. Be sure to be an engaged listener.

Volunteer to serve

Volunteer with an American Legion Auxiliary unit in your community. Reach out to the local American Legion post home for ALA unit info, or visit www. ALAforVeterans.org for more information.

Donate

Donate to a cause that helps veterans. Every dollar helps. Even a small donation is money well spent to support our nation’s heroes. Consider donating to the American Legion Auxiliary Foundation to support veterans, military, and their families for generations to come. Veterans Day originated in 1919 as Armistice Day to mark the one-year anniversary of the end of World War I. The date of Nov. 11 is significant because fighting between the Allied nations and Germany ceased on the 11th hour of the 11th day in the 11th month in 1918. In 1954, U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower changed the name to Veterans Day. Not to be confused with Memorial Day, Veterans Day pays tribute to all veterans— those who have served and are currently serving, along with those who have passed.

Obesity Contributes To New Diabetes Cases

educing the prevalence of obesity may prevent up to half of new Type 2 diabetes cases in the United States, according to new research published in the Journal of the American Heart Association, an open access journal of the American Heart Association. Obesity is a major contributor to diabetes, and the new study suggests more tailored efforts are needed to reduce the incidence of obesity-related diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes, affecting more than 31 million Americans, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The risk factors for Type 2 diabetes include being overweight or having obesity; being over the age of 45; having an immediate family member diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes; being physically active less than three times per week; or a history of gestational diabetes (diabetes during pregnancy). Type 2 diabetes is more common among people who are Black, Hispanic or Latino, American Indian, Alaska Native, Pacific Islander or Asian American. The number of deaths due to Type 2 diabetes in people younger than 65 is increasing along with serious complications of the condition, including amputations and hospitalizations. In addition, Type 2 diabetes impacts heart disease and stroke risk: adults with Type 2 diabetes are twice as likely to have a heart attack or stroke than people without diabetes. Type 2 diabetes can be prevented or

delayed with healthy lifestyle changes, such as losing weight, eating healthy food and being physically active. According to the National Diabetes Prevention Program, behavior changes have been shown to help people with prediabetes lose five to seven percent of their body weight and reduce their risk of developing type 2 diabetes by 58 percent (71 percent for people older than age 60). Researchers examined the prevalence and excess risk of Type 2 diabetes associated with obesity. “Our study highlights the meaningful impact that reducing obesity could have on Type 2 diabetes prevention in the United States. Decreasing obesity needs to be a priority. Public health efforts that support healthy lifestyles, such as increasing access to nutritious foods, promoting physical activity and developing community programs to prevent obesity, could substantially reduce new cases of Type 2 diabetes,” said the study’s first author Natalie A. Cameron,

M.D., a resident physician of internal medicine at the McGaw Medical Center of Northwestern University in Chicago. Researchers used information from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) and four pooled cycles (20012016) of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). MESA is an ongoing, longitudinal study of 45 to 84-year-olds who did not have cardiovascular disease upon recruitment. MESA data included in this study was collected during five visits from 2000 Obesity is a major to 2017 at six contributor to centers across diabetes. the U.S. NHANES is a cross-sectional study of the American population that takes place every other year using patient questionnaires and examination data. “Our study confirms there is a higher prevalence of obesity among non-Hispanic Black adults and Mexican-American adults compared to non-Hispanic White adults. We suspect these differences may point to important social determinants of health that

contribute to new cases of Type 2 diabetes in addition to obesity,” said Cameron. For this analysis, authors limited data to participants ages 45 to 79 years old. They included only those who were non-Hispanic White, non-Hispanic Black or Mexican American and who did not have either Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes at the beginning of the study. Researchers calculated both the prevalence of obesity and the excess risk of Type 2 diabetes associated with obesity. “Additionally, the obesity epidemic has collided with the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Sadiya S. Khan, M.D., M.Sc., the study’s senior author and an assistant professor of medicine and preventive medicine at Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine. “The greater severity of COVID-19 infection in individuals with obesity is concerning because of the growing burden of adverse health consequences they could experience in the coming years; therefore, further efforts are needed to help more adults adopt healthier lifestyles and hopefully reduce the prevalence of obesity.” This analysis included only middle-aged to older adults without cardiovascular disease who were non-Hispanic White, non-Hispanic Black or Mexican-American, so results may not be generalizable to the entire U.S. population. Future research is required to assess the burden of obesity on new cases of Type 2 diabetes in other age groups and racial and ethnic groups. —American Heart Association

Pregnancy And Your Liver

iver test abnormalities are not uncommon in pregnancy and even minor test elevations should be addressed. Liver test abnormalities during pregnancy can create significant anxiety in both the pregnant woman and the expectant father. This anxiety is made worse by the simple fact that liver disease in pregnancy is poorly understood by many medical practitioners. The good news is that most liver test abnormalities seen in pregnancy resolve on their own with no effect on either the mother or newborn child/children. Many times, the cause is unknown and tends to not recur with subsequent pregnancies. Despite this reassuring fact, a physician must evaluate liver test abnormalities found during pregnancy as significant liver disease can occur during this period. The most common cause of abnormal liver tests in pregnancy are not specific for pregnancy and are mostly due to viral infections or medication use. There are, however, several important conditions specific for pregnancy that need to be

called hyperemesis gravidarum. Abnormalities in liver tests are common in this condition. The development of hyperemesis gravidarum is associated with the first pregnancy, young age, smoking and obesity. The cause is unknown. If severe and the mother has difficulty maintaining their weight while pregnant, the fetus is at increased risk of intrauterine growth retardation. This condition, however, is not associated with any long-term liver disease. Intrahepatic cholestasis of David Bernstein, MD pregnancy is another condition unique to both pregnancy and tends to occur in otherwise addressed. Nausea and vomiting are quite healthy women.

treatable with bile-acid resin binders such as cholestyramine. Ursodeoxycholic acid and phenobarbitol have been successfully used to treat itching. The only definitive therapy, however, is delivery. With delivery, itching usually resolves within days and liver test abnormalities usually normalize within several weeks. This is a benign but frequently recurrent condition for the mother. Patients who develop this need to be followed in the future for the development of primary biliary cholangitis or PBC. This condition, however, is not benign for the fetus, as it is associated with an increased rate of fetal distress, premature births and stillbirths. Two other conditions that are unique to pregnancy are worthy of mention. The HEELP syndrome (hemolytic anemia, elevated liver enzymes and low platelets) and acute fatty of liver of pregnancy are conditions which occur in the third trimester. The causes of these disorders are also unknown but a growing body of research suggests that acute fatty liver of pregnancy may be an inherited

disorder. People with these conditions usually complain of fatigue, abdominal pain, headache, nausea or vomiting. Once diagnosed, these conditions need to be treated immediately with delivery as both conditions can rapidly progress to coma and maternal death. Rarely, patients with acute fatty liver of pregnancy may require a liver transplantation. Within two weeks of delivery, symptoms generally resolve as the event is self-limited. If delivery goes well, there are no long-term sequelae associated with either condition. Both conditions, however, are associated with an increased risk of maternal death, fetal intrauterine growth retardation and fetal death. The important take home point is that all liver test abnormalities during pregnancy must be evaluated by a doctor. While there is no need to panic when these abnormalities are discovered, it is prudent that the pregnant mother seek appropriate medical care. —David Bernstein, MD, MACG, FAASLD, AGAF, FACP

National Family Caregivers Month Caregiving in BIPOC communities

amily caregivers exist across all demographics—people providing care to their loved ones come from every age, gender, socioeconomic status, and race/ ethnicity. However, not all identities are represented among caregivers at rates proportional to the general population and they don’t all share the same experiences. For a long time, caregiving research and media portrayals centered around White caregivers—mostly White, middle-aged, middle-class women. Currently, nearly 40 percent of caregivers identify as Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC). Within each BIPOC racial/ethnic group, the rates of caregiving are higher than in White demographics. While BIPOC caregivers tend to receive more support from family and friends than White caregivers do, they face a lot of challenges that White caregivers don’t experience. On average, BIPOC caregivers have lower socioeconomic status. Studies have found that Black and Hispanic caregivers often feel ignored in medical settings and left out of crucial care discussions by staff. Asian-American caregivers don’t utilize professional

support services as often as others, likely because of limited culturally relevant services. While most caregivers feel as though caregiving is the “right” thing to do, BIPOC individuals often see it as an expected part of life that each generation participates in at some point. For many, there’s no decision to be made about whether to be a caregiver—it is just a role they assume without much conscious thought. In some cultures, the role of caregiving is based on gender and birth order. While White individuals tend to take on the caregiving role due to feelings of personal responsibility, caregiving is a cultural expectation in many BIPOC communities and families.

Race Breakdown

Among caregivers in the United States, the race breakdown is as follows: 62% identify as White 17% identify as Hispanic (nonWhite, non-Black) 13% identify as Black 6% identify as Asian-American Within each of these demographics, the prevalence of caregiving varies: Hispanic: 21% Black: 20.3% Asian-American: 19.7% White: 16.9%

Caregiver Age

On average, BIPOC caregivers are younger than White

caregivers. The average age of caregivers by racial/ethnic group are: White: 53.5 years old Asian-American: 46.6 years old Black: 44.2 years old Hispanic: 42.7 years old Sixty-two percent of White caregivers are over the age of 50, while it’s more common for BIPOC to be caregivers in early adulthood. The largest age demographic among each racial/ ethnic group are: Hispanic: 18-34 (38% of Hispanic caregivers fall in that age range) Black: 50+ (38%) Asian-American: 50+ (44%) White: 50+ (62%) In both the 18-34 and 35-49 age brackets, there is a higher percentage of Hispanic, Black, and Asian-American caregivers (individually) than White caregivers.

Time Spent Caregiving

Hispanic and White caregivers spend the most time providing care: Hispanic: 80 hours per month White: 50 hours per month

Black: 45 hours per month Asian-American: 45 hours per month

Employment

Across ethnicities, approximately 4 in 10 caregivers are unemployed: Hispanic: 43% unemployed White: 40% unemployed Black: 40% unemployed Asian-American: 35% unemployed Caregiving can disrupt an individual’s employment, and many caregivers across ethnicities have needed to adjust their workload or schedule to accommodate their other duties. In some cases, this leads to retiring early or quitting: Black: 19% retire early/quit White: 15% retire early/quit Hispanic: 13% retire early/quit Asian-American: 6% retire early/ quit Many employed caregivers have told their supervisor about their caregiving role, but a number of people across ethnicities have not told anyone at work:

s winter heating season approaches, PSEG Long Island recognizes that many households are facing challenging times and wants to remind its customers that programs exist to help people struggling with utility bills. There are also many ways they can lower their bills by using energy wisely. The costs associated with purchasing fuel for electric power supply are directly passed through to the customers. A hedging program is in place to reduce the volatility of power supply costs for customers. Hedging provides price stability in case of unforeseen commodity market and weather events that drive up prices. The most effective thing customers can to do lower their bills is to use electricity more efficiently. Here are some helpful tips: • Replace inefficient incandescent light bulbs with LED bulbs • Use a programmable thermostat to automatically manage your home’s heating and cooling needs. ENERGY STAR estimates that properly used programmable thermostats can save the average American household about $180 a year. In addition, PSEG offers rebates on smart thermostats. • Lower your thermostat by just one degree to potentially reduce your heating bill.

Lower your thermostat. • Install timers and motion detectors to automatically manage indoor and outdoor lighting and help ensure lights are not on when they’re not needed. • Setting a ceiling fan to rotate clockwise on low pulls cool air toward the ceiling, pushing warm air down into a room. • Seal windows and doorframes with weather stripping or caulk, and remove or cover window air conditioners to help to prevent drafts that waste energy and money. • Reduce “phantom power” by using energy efficient power strips or unplugging electronic devices when they’re not in use. • Install a high efficiency air source heat pump to lower energy usage, save money and provide greater comfort in cold and hot months. More money-saving ideas and rebate information are available at https://www.psegliny. com/saveenergyandmoney/ energystarrebates. —PSEG Long Island

LONG ISLAND WEEKLY

Jane Monheit’s Three Fave Vocalists DAVE GIL de RUBIO dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

ane Monheit is crazy about the holidays. The self-described “obsessed Christmas lady” admits that she, husband Rick Montalbano, Jr. and son Jack watched their first Christmas movie on Nov. 1 with the tree going up that Friday, Nov. 4. So it should come as no surprise that she’s just released her second holiday album, The Merriest, the holiday follow-up to 2005’s The Season and the latest project since 2021’s pandemic-influenced Come What May. “I have seriously wanted to make a second Christmas album since the first one came out,” she said with a laugh. “Part of the reason behind that is artists like me, who sing the Great American Songbook or deal with traditional pop, jazz, cabaret and all of these genres that I’m involved with, tend to make multiple holiday albums.” Recorded during a quick three-and-ahalf stint back in August, Monheit emerged with a nine-song set that includes such Christmas classics as “Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!,” “Winter Wonderland” and not surprisingly, “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year.” Add in a number of gems from The Season that include Donny Hathaway’s “This Christmas,” the Irving Berlin medley “I Love the Winter Weather/I’ve Got to Keep My Love to Keep Me Warm” and Johnny Marks’ “I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day” and you have a good idea of the process the Long Island native went through that reflect the Oakdale native’s wide-ranging tastes. “A lot of [figuring these choices out] was really figuring out what Christmas songs I haven’t recorded yet, so there was a lot of that, because I’ve done Christmas projects

with other people as well,” Monheit explained. “I did repeat a few songs I’ve recorded before, but that’s because I wanted to do them differently or I had an idea for a different arrangement. Bernadette Peters (Photo by Nonobadkitty/ CC BY 2.0)

Jane Monheit (Photo by Matthew Holler)

I picked a lot of my favorites and I think that’s important. There has to be a good reason behind it—you’ve got to be telling the truth.” Now that COVID-19 restrictions have eased, Monheit is eager to play live performances, although her drummer/accompanist husband Montalbano, Jr. will be staying home in Los Angles with their son, a newly minted high school freshman. And while she’ll be coming to the East Coast at some point, the 44-year-old vocalist admits she doesn’t play Long Island nearly enough. Ella Fitzgerald She did not rule out (Photo by Ben van a future date not too Meerendonk/AHF/CC far from her Oakdale BYCC homestead, where her family still lives. “You know, I don’t get to do that too often because I’m always playing clubs the city,” she said. “I only play on Long Island rarely. I would be thrilled to come home.” And while Cooder’s 1980 outing Borderline was Bonnie Raitt a childhood favorite (Photo by C. Elliot) (“That’s my record man. What a great album”), Monheit was eager to share a triumvirate of vocalists she’s loved over the years. Visit www.janemonheitonline.com for more information about Jane Monheit.

Ella Fitzgerald (April 25, 1917 to June 15, 1996)

“[Ella] had insane musicianship. But was even more special about Ella was the warmth and joy with which she sang and the way she treated people. Ella was known for her kindness and incredibly loving heart and that inspires me as a human being. It’s more than just her singing for me. It’s Ella’s whole self and presence in the world.”

Bernadette Peters (February 28, 1948 to present)

“Talk about lyrical interpretation. That’s where I learned a lot about how to sing in a way that was honest and soul-bearing. You listen to Bernadette Peters sing any song and your heart is bleeding on the floor. She was a huge influence on me in that regard. I also love her vibrato, technique and everything about the way she sings. I’ve been obsessed since I was very small.”

Bonnie Raitt

(November 8, 1949 to present)

“Bonnie Raitt comes more out of my love for bluegrass, Americana and all that kind of music I was raised on by my dad. She is the great natural—nothing that ever comes out of her mouth sounds anything but incredibly sincere. And just the natural beauty of her instrument is absolutely insane. She never sounds like she’s trying either. She never sounds like she had a voice lesson in her life. She just sounds like what she’s doing is just a completely natural gift from the universe and that’s kind of amazing to me.”

Whether you feel bigger, smaller, funnier, duller or sharper, it’s what you’re making of their response, not a reflection of who you actually are. Even so, these feelings matter and will sway your decisions. Make efforts to be near those you feel good around. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Destiny takes no pleasure in tripping us up, though her path is rich with rocky paths. Treacherous stretches are opportunities to be a little more careful or skillful. Stay upright and keep moving forward. The secret to success in both these aims is sturdy shoes and steady company.

Wouldn’t it be nice

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Even though there are many welcoming souls around you, you may still feel like an outsider at times this week. One reason is that there’s so much on your mind that you don’t quite know how to share. Once you sort it through and accept all the different parts of you, it will be much easier to connect with others.

Solution: 15 Letters

CANCER (June 22-July 22). It’s fantastic to be able to control where you go and love it when you get there. But when you have to be somewhere you don’t prefer, that’s when it gets interesting. This week brings a chance to become clever, solve problems and develop coping mechanisms. You’ll meet good people in unexpected places.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll serve the ones you love, and your love is part of what makes you a servant. When you adore a person or believe in an institution, a position of helping is a great joy. Be sure to let others take care of you, too. And if there is a relationship imbalance, it can be righted this week before it becomes a problem. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). People go to great lengths to avoid feeling afraid. You can save yourself the trouble by opting to be brave. Working through uncomfortable emotions is a skill that opens your horizons. There’s so much more for you to experience when you’re not running from the possibility of an unpleasant emotion. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll act out of a desire to benefit others, and your eyes will be opened to the opportunities in the situation. You will witness tenderness and give it. Your heart will soften, not just for your main people but for the whole world. You’ll be generous with attention, forgiveness and affection. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Just because there are obvious issues on this path doesn’t mean you’re on the wrong one. Every road has features and obstacles, and the problems are a normal part of every life. You’ll get the ones that make you better, and you never have to worry about making any more than would naturally occur. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You may seek advice knowing full well that each opinion is but one way of looking at things -- each fact, each rule a mere drop in an ocean of information. In the end, you’ll be enriched by what others have to say, but you’ll follow your gut instinct, which is as good an indication of what to do as any could be. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There are people who would love to be by your side, cheering you on, though it does take work and time to find them. In the meantime, self-encouragement is a worthy skill to develop. Confidence is a habit, and you welcome the chance to practice positive self-talk and cultivate your strong, can-do attitude.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

You have that “wow” factor, and people will want to know what’s going on in your life and business. Because of this, there will be decisions to make about who needs to know what and how to present things to create a desired effect for those you entertain and care for. You’ll be very good at organizing, and the way you order your world will bring ease. You’ll explore different ways to move through exercise, dance or competitive sports. This releases stress and releases your mighty powers of attraction. COPYRIGHT 2022 CREATORS.COM

Post-mortems often prove very illuminating, since they permit an analysis of every avenue of play with all four hands in view. Consider this deal played in a national championship. East opened five clubs, vulnerable, and carried on to six after South bid five spades. North doubled, and East finished down one after South led the ace and another diamond. South was unhappy with the outcome, contending he could have made a slam in spades — worth 980 points — against any defense.

After a club lead, he would have ruffed, played a diamond to the jack, continued with the K-A of diamonds and ruffed a diamond in dummy to produce his 12th trick. His only loser would have been a trump. West challenged this statement, claiming he could stop the slam by leading the ace and another trump. But South stuck to his guns, insisting he would have made the slam even with a trump lead and offered to back his opinion by betting the traditional old family homestead. Further analysis led to the conclusion that South was right. Declarer wins the second trump lead with dummy’s six and returns the king of hearts, forcing East to cover with the ace. South ruffs, leads a diamond to the jack and returns the jack of hearts. When East covers with the queen, South ruffs and then cashes all his remaining trumps, reducing his own hand to the A-7-4 of diamonds. On the last trump, West must choose a discard from the Q-8-6 of diamonds and ten of hearts in front of dummy’s K-5 of diamonds and 9-7 of hearts. West can’t discard successfully, and declarer makes the slam. All of which explains why South is still living happily on his old family homestead.

f you loved GLEE, Sing! or Pitch Perfect, get your vocal chords ready for the 2nd Annual Shabbacappella weekend hosted by Temple Beth-El of Great Neck (tbegreatneck.org). Shabbacapella is an entire Shabbat weekend of fun and a cappella music centered around a residency by a visiting vocal ensemble. Over the weekend, the a cappella music will be enjoyed at Temple Beth-El of Great Neck (Reform) and Temple Israel of Great Neck (Conservative) as well as at their shared Kulanu Religious School. “There’s a great tradition of Jewish a cappella music, especially on college campuses but also professionally. In recent years groups like the Maccabeats have raised the profile of the genre online to greater visibility,” says Cantor Adam Davis of Temple Beth-El of Great Neck, who organized the weekend. “Since I arrived in 2020, TBE has hosted top A Capella groups like Tizmoret, Six13 and this year Pizmon. We get to hear some incredible singers, and when they lend their voices to our prayers during services, it’s like a chorus of angels singing with us... angels who beatbox.” Pizmon (pizmon.org) is the award-win-

SCHOOL NEWS LIVING LIFE IN COLOR-A CELEBRATION OF THE ARTS AT NORTH SHORE HEBREW ACADEMY HIGH SCHOOL BY CHLOE MASTOUR

This November marks the first time the North Shore Hebrew Academy High School (NSHAHS) Art Department will partner with the Great Neck Library to display students’ work from the variety of art classes. The show is being installed on Nov. 1 and will run through the 28th. The exhibit features various artistic styles and appeals to all tastes: from the contemporary architecture student’s residential design to the advanced-placement studio art student’s surrealist self-portrait to the avante-garde fashion student’s collage of all things Dior, withstanding the test of time and trend. A quick look around the exhibit will tell you that North Shore’s art curriculum accommodates students’ varied interests and art industry trends, allowing students to engage in higher-level techniques and develop fine-tuned technical skills. Upon graduation, students produce professional grade portfolios to meet the admissions criteria of the country’s most selective art schools and conservatories. The NSHAHS Art Department is bustling with creative talent eager to make something beautiful every day. Students see, feel, think, and make aesthetic choices, explore a variety of media, and self-evaluate as part of the studio experience. North Shore offers courses for non-art major students and those seeking to specialize in that area. Introductory classes include foundational multimedia experiences in the elements of art (line, shape, space, color, texture, and pattern), as well as the principles of design (balance, unity,vrhythm, proportion, color interaction, and rela-

tionships). Specialized art classes seek to explore more diverging interests, such as advanced olacement studio art, fashion design, and architecture. Young artists’ goals will be achieved by integrating four components in every course: the creative, the critical, the cultural, and the philosophical. As Ms. Alexandra Dammacco, Chair of North Shore’s art department, explains: “The study of art is the exploration of human creativity. Art students leave the classroom

not only with an appreciation of art but also with a sense of empowerment because they have learned to become creative, original thinkers.” For senior Elisheva Nassimi, art has always been a vehicle through which she can creatively express herself: “Since freshmen year, North Shore’s Art Department has been such a nurturing environment that enables me to explore so many different things.” Elisheva has been studying impressionism and will continue

ACAP SCIENCE FAIR PRESIDENTIAL AWARD WINNER South High School senior Andria Chen is the recipient of the Gold prize at the 2022 Association of Chinese American Physicians (ACAP) Science Fair. This firstplace award, also called the ACAP Presidential Award, includes a monetary prize for both Andria and the South High science research program. The ACAP Science Fair is a nationwide scientific competition open to middle school and high school students conducting research in the biomedical field.

Andria’s project, “Analyzing the Tumor Genomic Landscape of Endometrial Cancer in African American Women,” aimed to understand the genetic differences in various types of endometrial cancers between African American and non-African American women in order to improve risk determination and treatment. Andria’s project is the culmination of two years of work in the South High science research program, which included summer research in a pathology lab at

SUNY Downstate Medical Center with Dr. Daniel Levitan. Her science research teachers at South High are Nicole Spinelli and Dr. James Truglio. —Submitted by the Great Neck Public School District South High student Andria Chen is presented with the Presidential Award for her science research at the 2022 ACAP Annual Convention on Oct. 16.

to do so as part of her “sustained investigation.” To keep you upto-date on your artist’s lingo, a sustained investigation makes up most of one’s portfolio. “It should be a cohesive body of work that significantly explores an inquiry,” says Elisheva. The inquiry is the work created through the process of developing, creating, revising, and exploring the idea of your guiding question. No matter the artist’s sustained investigation, the search for original concepts, the integral

development of technique and observational skills, and the cultivation of respect for the elements of art and design principles all foster a sense of limitless artistic possibilities for students at North Shore. This November, join us for a celebration of the arts. Believe me, you’ve never seen art quite like this before! If you’re a real art connoisseur, consider joining North Shore’s budding artists this May for their annual art show. Art is just too important not to share!

IT’S AN HONOR TO SERVE

THOSE WHO SERVED Each year on Veterans Day, our communities pay special tribute to those who served in the armed forces. Their fierce camaraderie is contagious and their experiences inspiring. The Bristal salutes the many men and women among our ranks who dedicated themselves to the cause of freedom. Our thanks should be felt and heard, especially at this time of year.
