Manhasset Becomes Center Of Attention Conflicting opinions on mask ruling draw media to district BY FRANK RIZZO
T
frizzo@antonmediagroup.com
uesday, Jan. 25 may well go down as “The Day of Confusion” in school districts across the state, but particularly on Long Island. The day before, Nassau County Supreme Court Judge Thomas Rademaker had ruled in a case brought by parents who opposed the state mask mandates in schools. In his decision, the judge did not question the need for masking as a tool to prevent infections. However, Rademaker stated that the way the order was imposed was unconstitutional because Governor Kathy Hochul no longer possessed the emergency powers that were granted to her predecessor, Andrew Cuomo, to fight the COVID-19 pandemic. “It is evident that the Legislature of the State of New York is the branch of government charged with enacting laws and the Executive Branch is charged with enforcing the law,” the ruling reads. “The Court cannot find any law enacted by the State Legislature that specifically gives the Department of Health and its Commissioner the authority to enact a law.” The executive order was put in place in December and required masks in all indoor public places unless proof of vaccination was presented. It was set to expire Feb. 1. On Jan. 28, Hochul extended it to Feb. 10. Hochul disagreed with the decision and in a statement said she would be “pursuing every option to reverse this immediately.” Attorney General Letitia James filed a motion to stay—or temporarily halt—the ruling while a formal appeal was filed. On Tuesday afternoon, Appeals Court Justice Robert J. Miller granted the stay, keeping the mask mandate in place until Jan. 28. He ordered the parties to appear before the court on that date to present their arguments. He was expected to make a decision this week. Rademaker’s ruling was hailed by County Executive Bruce Blakeman and other opponents of masking, and a number of school districts across Long Island declared Jan. 25 as a mask-optional day. The ruling created much uncertainty on Tuesday morning as school officials and parents and students struggled to understand whether the mask mandate was still in place.
Police were called to the Manhasset Secondary School on Jan. 25 when parents gathered to question the mask mandates. (Contributed photo) When word came that parents were protesting at Manhasset Secondary School and police cars were on the scene, numerous media organizations descended on the hamlet and set up across the street from the school. They then interviewed parents and students willing to talk about what they have experienced.

You no longer have an opinion on it.

“That’s not true,” one parent insisted. “It’s a complete lie.” “I’m sharing with you what was shared with us,” Passi replied. Parent Monica Noone claimed that lawyers representing Long Island school districts “have written that the stay is not in place. The counsel that is representing our school is saying it is.” The lawyers are fighting for each other, she suggested, and Passi observed, “That’s why we’re asking for one more day.”
Students, Parents Talk
Isabella Bonati, 16, a junior, agreed to be interviewed as her mother Tina stood by her side. She related that she went to school that morning with a note from her mother that claimed the school’s mask policy was now unconstitutional, “The security guard completely denied it,” she said of the note. “She did not want to look at it. She told me it was not her business to deal with it. And so they told me ‘Either put a mask on or get out of the building.’ So I told them ‘Thank you, have a nice day.’ I’ve been outside since 7:30 this morning. It’s freezing cold.” She added, “Personally, I think this is really ridiculous. I’m being denied my rights to education because of a unconstitutional [mandate]. It’s really not fair. I’ve missed four periods now in school. I’m not saying to completely get rid of masks. I’m saying make them optional.”

MASKS from page 3
Tina Bonati speaks to reporters as her daughter Isabella, 16, watches. Isabella did not wear a mask to school that day and related what she experienced. (Photo by Frank Rizzo) Bonati provided more information about the maskless students. She claimed that school personnel (she did not specify), “rounded them up and put them in the library and blocked them from leaving.” She further described her fellow students as “segregated.” Bonati concluded, “COVID has taken away so much from students. We’re all suffering with it. We’re all trying to get through it. If we don’t return to normalcy, we’re going to be stuck with it forever.” Tina Bonati said, “I just think it’s wrong. Just for today we should have gone optional. Right now the stay, as I believe, is not in place so why create this? For one day give these kids the opportunity to have a choice to be maskless or masked. It’s their constitutional right.” She continued, “I think their rights were trampled upon today. I’m sorry, that’s wrong.” Someone asked about maskless kids having to use Zoom in the library. “It’s completely wrong,” she replied. “Where are our rights? What is happening to our country? Parents, please stand up. Now is the time.” Monica Noone told reporters that the legal advice parents had received that morning indicated that the stay order was not in place. “We tried to contact the school district this morning to ask them if they could provide the stay in writing, but no one responded to us,” she said. She had driven her two daughters to school that morning—one was in 7th grade the other in 9th grade—and was told by a security guard that mask wearing “was only a recommendation. So I dropped them off without masks and I went home. I was called back up to the school because my children

Superintendent’s View
In a letter to the community, Passi acknowledged that “We share the community’s frustration with the conflicting messages from governing authorities and their legal counsel. It is understandable that there was great confusion today around the mask mandate. The vast majority of students at all three of our schools complied today with the district’s request to wear masks.” Passi continued, “Less than a dozen students arrived at the Secondary School without masks and were provided with masks by our staff. A handful of students declined to wear masks and were asked to wait in the library while building and district administrators considered the matter.” He continued, “We met with the parents who had gathered at the Secondary School to ask for their understanding, patience and cooperation while the district awaited clarifying guidance from the state. Given the confusion, we advised students and their parents that we would make the library available today for students who did not want to wear a mask. Several students chose to remain in the library for the day, where they engaged in remote instruction for their classes.” He concluded, “We recognize that these are emotionally charged times in which it is easy for us to become divided as a school community. However, I know that in this Manhasset community, our students are first in all our hearts and minds.”

Conference Meet Brings Out The Best BY FRANK RIZZO
T
frizzo@antonmediagroup.com
he Section VIII–Conference 4 championship meet at Saint Anthony’s High School in South Huntington last month was the “Goldilocks” of the indoor track season for the Manhasset boys and girls track teams. It put schools of similar enrollment together and gave competitors a chance to garner one of the six placements for team points. Unlike the big invitationals preceding it and the upcoming sectional and state qualifier meets, the large track powerhouses were missing, making it more competitive for smaller programs. And unlike the “developmental” meets, it was an occasion for coaches to think strategically in where they placed runners and field athletes to gain the most points. The Manhasset teams did well, finishing second in both the boys and girls divisions to Valley Stream North. Brendan Conniff was the standout, winning the 3200 (10:31.02), 1000 (2:51.41) and 1600 (4:59.02). All three times were well off his personal bests, but being forced to run the 1000 less than half an hour after the 3200 made him run a more measured pace to conserve energy. “It was Brendan’s idea to do the triple,” said boys coach Steve Steiner. “He didn’t need to do that. To be honest, I knew we were going to come up short for the team championship to Valley Stream North. They won their 16th consecutive conference title—we’ve won many ourselves, but we’ve not been paired with them usually. They’ve gotten a little bigger and we’ve gotten a little smaller and we’ve landed in the same conference. I knew we would finish second, so there was no reason for Brendan to do three events. But the reason I allowed it was because it was a point of pride and challenge for him. But he fully expected to win them all.” “He ran just good enough to win,” someone observed. “Exactly, and that’s my job as a coach, to teach him the difference between the invitational on Saturday, where we’re racing for time, and the championship meet where you’re racing for team points,” replied Steiner. “He has just been laser focused on what he wants to accomplish and the reason why he’s so different from anyone I’ve ever coached is he’s so focused and so committed, but so laid back at the same time. If you didn’t know him well you might think that he’s cavalier. His friends describe his personality as ‘happy serious.’”

Steiner added, “Also, he’s super resilient. He’s had some bad races, some poor performances and at first I was taken aback by how quickly he gets over it. I was like, ‘As a coach, I want you to be a little upset about that one.’ But that’s just not his personality. And I realize that it just works for him.” Asked by the Manhasset Press about his races, Conniff said, “Throughout that whole [3200], I felt really controlled. That was my goal. I did not want to overexert myself. That was the plan for that race [to run at a steady pace]. I tried to think of the [3200] as a much faster warm up. By the time I finished the race I was in the mindset of ‘All right, it’s time to actually race now.’ ” His strategy in the 1600 and 1000, he related, “was to let someone else take the lead the first half of the race—let them do the work and then

just kick for those final two laps.” James Kinloch also impressed in the 600. He came from last in the final 100 meters to finish first in 1:31.60. “For me, that was the most exciting race of the night,” Steiner said. “James plays basketball. He’s two-sport athlete. He ran cross country for us in the fall but in the winter he plays basketball and in Section VIII you’re allowed to do multiple sports. For the most part he plays basketball and he’s permitted to come and run some races. He’s only run a couple of races this season—he’s not really training specifically for track. He ran a 51-second split on our 4x400 last spring, so we know he’s got some speed. He’s a real talented kid.” “In the 1000 we had a freshman who finished third. He’s a phenomenal runner. He’s 6-foot-3 and looks like a senior,” Steiner said of Cole Thalmheimer, who clocked 2:52.83.
“Paul Park is a real phenomenal jumper. He’s the second best jumper in the county,” Steiner said. “Unfortunately, the best jumper in the county (Ryan John), who is also the best in the state, is in our conference—he jumps for Valley Stream North.” Park placed second to Ryan in both the long jump (20-11½) and triple jump (42-7½). He was also runner-up in the 300 (38.28). Anthony Embriano added four second-place team points in the shot put (35-6). Regarding the winter season, Steiner said, “The conference meet for us is always a point of emphasis. Prior to this year, we had won the last seven or eight consecutive conference championships. But we had a different alignment this year. In some areas we really met or [exceeded] my

Manhasset Grad Moderates Talks At Google
R
ecent advances in biomolecular medicine and biotechnology will make it possible for the injured brain to regenerate. Talks at Google, a global talk series, recently presented “Healing and Regenerating the Injured Brain with Dr. Hal Lewis and Dr. David Margulies.” Nathan Meryash, a 2001 graduate of Manhasset High School and technical program manager at Google Devices and Services, moderated the talk. Lewis and Margulies co-founded the Dan Lewis Foundation (DLF) for Brain Regeneration Research in 2019 with a mission to catalyze biomedical research and drug development that will promote brain regeneration and better levels of functional recovery of persons with moderate and severe brain injuries. In 2007, Dan Lewis (Dr. Lewis’ son), then a rising junior at Yale University, was hit by a speeding motorist in
Kansas as he biked a 4,000-mile route across America to raise funds for Habitat for Humanity. His injuries, including a very severe brain injury, were nearly fatal, but Dan survived and has persisted for the many years since the accident. For Dan and hundreds of thousands of individuals across the globe, recovery from severe brain injury is both limited and painstakingly slow. Now, recent startling advances in biotechnology, molecular medicines, imaging, and mapping of the human genome have unlocked the potential for new treatments that will lead to brain repair and regeneration. Over the past two years, the DLF has assembled a world-class group of scientists who have volunteered their time and expertise to create a neuroscientific research agenda that holds real promise for brain repair and regeneration. The DLF’s inaugural Summit Meeting on
Brain Regeneration Research was held in August of 2021 to specify further the DLF’s research blueprint. A full report on this meeting’s outcome is available at www.DanLewisFoundation.org. There are hundreds of thousands of individuals, including veterans, victims of auto and biking accidents, athletes in contact sports, childhood injuries, and many others who will benefit from emerging biomedical and biotechnological interventions to improve their functional recovery and their capacity to participate more fully in family and community life. Currently, the Dan Lewis Foundation is raising funds to support research to create treatments which stimulate brain regeneraManhasset grad Nathan Meryash tion and meaningful functional moderated the talk. recovery.

CASA Holds Cyberbullying Workshop The Manhasset Coalition Against Substance Abuse (CASA) will hold one of its “Prevention Through Connection” workshops on Tuesday, Feb. 8 at 7:30 p.m. at the Manhasset Secondary School auditorium. Author and motivational speaker John Halligan will talk about his hard-earned lessons about cyberbullying and its effects as he discusses the suicide of his son Ryan, 13. The boy had been bullied by classmates at school and online. According to a press release, “Adolescence is more challenging than
ever. Bullying and suicide are on the rise—an increase linked to social media and smartphone use. Mr. Halligan’s presentation will cover the lessons learned for his family regarding how to deal with bullying, cyberbullying and teen depression. He focuses on the art of being an upstander and talking about feelings.” Life changing lessons include: • The importance of and tips for self-advocacy. • Strategies for those who are bullied and bystanders.
• Learn about the power of apologies and forgiveness. • Tips for safe technology use. • Empowering parents with strategies to take preventive actions with their own children. All participants must adhere to the school district’s COVID-19 protocols and wear masks and keep a physical distance. Two community service hours are available to students who attend this presentation. —Submitted by the Manhasset CASA

The way we define winning is not necessarily bringing home the championship. These kids, when they went to get their runner-up plaque, you wouldn’t have known that they didn’t win the whole thing. They were very excited and they went out and took pictures with the plaque. They were celebrating their achievement.” At the conference meet, the girls stood out in the relays, winning the 4x200 and the 4x400 while falling short to South Side in the 4x800.

The Generals are 3-3 in conference play and 4-9 overall. In the same week, MacArthur toppled the top two teams in the conference, beating Great Neck South, who was 3-1, and New Hyde Park, who was 4-0. “Our guys are playing great team basketball and have put themselves in a position to compete for a playoff spot,” MacArthur coach Brian Maini said. “We are excited for the opportunity, but we will continue to take it one day at a time and stay focused on our team goals.” According to Maini, senior John Rebaudo is averaging 16.2 points per game and has emerged as one of the top players in the conference. Fellow senior Matt Sarni provides leadership and toughness on the court. Sarni, a captain, is averaging just shy of a double-double. Maini also added that seniors Matt Cassidy, TJ Trapani and Phil

Roger And Peggy Gerry: Master Preservationists BY JOSEPH SCOTCHIE
jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com
T
his year, the Village of Roslyn celebrates it 90th anniversary as an incorporated village. Once a landscape of farms and estates, it has been Long Island’s fate ever since World War II become suburbia. Little Roslyn has been a holdout. Into the new century, it remains a small village largely immune to the sprawl around it. The village’s efforts to restore historic properties have also been a success. Roslyn has been long acknowledged as a leader nationwide in historic preservation. There are many heroes in the story to keep Roslyn a small village. Veterans of historic preservation have cited Dr. Roger Gerry and wife, Peggy, as decisive forces in that struggle. The history of the Roslyn area pre-dates the founding of the United States by a good 132 years. As we kick off our year-long celebration of Roslyn’s history, we will start in modern times and the story of Dr. Gerry. A native of Far Rockaway, Dr. Gerry eventually graduated from a dental school in Kentucky. During World War II, he served in the United States Navy both stateside in California and later in the Pacific theater. After the war, he married Peggy, herself a native of the Golden State and the two started a family. The postwar boom was underway and the Gerrys sought out Roslyn as a place to raise their young family. Gerry would eventually rise to chief of dental surgery at Mount Sinai Hospital. The 1960s were a time of great foment in the country, including numerous urban renewal projects. The term was misleading as it meant tearing down neighborhoods for either new housing or highways to satisfy the nation’s ongoing love affair with the automobile. And
The Gerrys lives were chronicled in the book Roslyn Restored. urban renewal would eventually target little Roslyn. Roslyn, according to longtime resident Les Arstark, was set to become “a slum.” As a World War II veteran, Gerry was hardly going to be impressed by armies of bureaucrats. In fact, the Gerrys had been involved in historic preservation even before the Sixties rolled around. In the early Fifties, the couple researched and wrote a book about the village’s historic architecture, while also conducting a house tour of historic
homes. Even in times of upheaval, historic preservation is still possible. A spectacular example was the effort of Jacqueline Onassis in saving Grand Central Terminal in midtown Manhattan from the wrecking ball. The Gerrys knew what they had to do. In 1961, they founded the Roslyn Landmark Society. The next year, they convinced the village Board of Trustees to establish both a Historic District Board and a Historic District. The latter would save certain houses and districts from the wrecking ball. The board would exact strict guidelines to building permits. Many a businessman and homeowner can attest to how strict those guidelines can be. Not all historic homes could be placed in a special district. The Gerrys came up with a novel idea: Establish a fund for the acquisition and restoration of historic homes, structures that later would be sold to either young couples or retirees. Some of the homes had to be moved,
but they were preserved. “In doing so, the Gerrys…assembled a critical mass of preservation-minded residents who involved themselves in civic affairs,” claimed a biography on the couple from the New York Preservation Archive Project. For Roger Gerry, that included a stint on the Board of Trustees. By then, the couple’s preservation efforts had earned them awards from the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the Victorian Society of America. The couple was also the subject of a handsome history, Roslyn Restored by Ellen Fletcher Russell. Gerry’s preservation work never ended. In the early 1990s, board of trustees’ members hoped to construct a Stop & Shop supermarket on 11 acres of land off Skillman Street in downtown Roslyn. The supermarket would be opened 24 hours. A huge controversy arose. Familiar battle lines were drawn, including court battles. “This has been a depressing eve-
ning,” the elderly Gerry remarked at the end of one particularly contentious meeting. The preservationists prevailed. The pro-Stop & Shop board was defeated. The new board studied, drafted and approved a Master Plan for future developments. Instead of a supermarket, attractive housing developments were built. Roger Gerry had won one last battle. Gerry died in 1995, Peggy in 2001. The couple’s legacy lives on, not just in the small town feel of Roslyn, but also in the Gerry Charitable Trust, which ensures that future preservation efforts will continue.

Students Swim With The Sharks On Jan. 12 and 13, aspiring student entrepreneurs at Roslyn High School pitched their business concepts to the Roslyn Sharks—a group of local community members with business experience—in the hope of receiving valuable advice and financing. Nine INCubator teams and eight ACCELerator teams, comprised of 69 students, participated. The INCubator students develop their own product or service and learn how to build a business, while the ACCELerator students work through customer acquisition, the business process, and product development
to launch their company into the marketplace. Both classes offer students a real entrepreneurship experience. “Brainstorming, communication, collaboration, and critical thinking are the
hallmarks of these classes and give students valuable lifelong skills,” said teacher Jen Di Pietro. “I’m so proud of how much they have already grown this year. They all swam with the sharks and were amazing!”

Female Varsity Wrestler Makes Great Neck History BY TYLER MROCZEK
editorial@antonmediagroup.com
A
Great Neck South High School wrestler accomplished a major feat on Jan. 12, when she became the first female in the district’s history to claim victory in a varsity match. Sophomore Crisia Bonilla, who wrestles at 132 pounds, successfully dominated her Great Neck North opponent during an intense match that ended during its second period. Her triumph earned the Great Neck South Wrestling Team six points and put her on this season’s varsity map with a record of 1-0. The following weekend, Bonilla won an additional three varsity matches, which brought her varsity record to an impressive 4-0, with an overall season record of 10-5. Great Neck South Wrestling Head Coach Ryan Pingitore remarked that Bonilla is not only the sole female wrestler on the team currently, but she’s also the first female varsity athlete to wrestle competitively in Great Neck program history. In fact, she began wrestling at the high school level in 2019 when she was only in the eighth grade. Pingitore says Bonilla only wrestled a few matches during her first season
on the team and spent the majority of her time training and learning from her teammates, one of which was her older brother Luis Villalobos. However, her first season as a high schooler was canceled due to rising health and safety concerns imposed by the pandemic. Pingitore says Bonilla’s success is not unexpected. “She is one of the hardest and toughest workers we have on the team, without a doubt. She’s really just a pleasure to coach.” Her passion for wrestling extends further than high school matches, since Bonilla also competes and practices with Hicksville’s Crash Girls Wrestling Club. Additionally, she is also training for a position on the USA Wrestling National Girls Tournament, which takes place this summer in Fargo, ND. In a few weeks, she will be competing at a qualifying tournament for the opportunity to participate in the Nassau County Championships, a competition in which only one other girl in county history has qualified for. “She came in this year hungry,” says Pingitore. “The best thing about her is she’s always looking to improve.” —Tyler Mroczek is a contributing writer for Anton Media Group

our kitchen contains a host of energy-using appliances and there are ways to reduce their energy use. First, buy the most efficient units possible. This includes refrigerators, dishwashers and stoves. There isn’t much difference in microwave oven efficiency. Identifying the most efficient models is simple: just look for the EnergyStar label. This assures you that it’s among the top efficient models. For refrigerators avoid the automatic ice maker and drink HenSpark dispenser because they cause more breakdowns and leaks, in addition to increasing energy use. Can you consolidate one refrigerator for two that you already have? A second refrigerator freezer, especially an older one, greatly increases your energy costs. Selecting the most efficient stove is also important. Induction stoves are now the most efficient and provide features not available with traditional electric or gas stoves. Induction stoves are still more expensive but the energy savings can repay the extra cost (especially if you cook at lot). • Place the faucet lever on
the kitchen sink in the cold position when using small amounts of water; placing the lever in the hot position draws hot water even though it may never reach the faucet. • Look for a natural gas oven or range with an automatic, electric ignition system, which saves gas since a pilot light is not burning continuously. • Look for blue flames in natural gas appliances; yellow flames indicate the gas is burning inefficiently and an adjustment may be needed. If you see yellow flames, consult the manufacturer or your local utility. • Keep range-top burners and reflectors clean; they will reflect the heat better, and you will save energy. • Use a covered kettle or pan or electric kettle to boil water; it’s faster and uses less energy. • Match the size of the pan to the heating element. • Use small electric pans, toaster ovens, or convection ovens for small meals rather than your large stove or oven. A toaster or convection oven uses one-third to one-half as much energy as a full-sized oven. —U. S. Department of Energy

New York City Officer Of The Year Coming To East Hills BY JOSEPH SCOTCHIE
jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com
W
ith the crime issue once again becoming paramount in cities and municipalities across the United States, the Village of East Hills has hired an exemplary veteran of the New York City Police Department to be its Director of Security. “Protecting our community against crime is one of the most important goals for our Village,” East Hills Mayor Michael Koblenz said when announcing the appointment. “Jason Schwartz is uniquely qualified to assume the role of Director of Security and succeed with these objectives. While East Hills, for many years, has had one of the lowest crime rates in the County, we must continue this enviable record of success. Our new security cameras will help deter crime, but our security personnel, who continuously drive throughout our community, must vigorously detect and report any suspicious activity. I have every confidence that Jason Schwartz will be an added asset in even further strengthening our security program.” That confidence is more than justified. Schwartz comes to the village with an impressive career in the NYPD behind him. A 25-year veteran of the force, Schwartz received no less than 61 medals for bravery and outstanding work. In 2000, he was named Police Officer of the Year for his unit that had more than 150 members in 2000. A native Long Islander, Schwartz attended Stony Brook University before graduating from the New York City Police Academy, where he participated in recruit training that included firearms and tactics, CPR training, administration training, and knowledge of the penal law. Once on the force, he began his rapid rise through the ranks of the NYPD, all at a time when a significant drop in the crime rate made New York the safest large city in America. From 1996-98, Schwartz worked as a patrolman, providing service to the community while patrolling his local precinct by answering 911 calls. He also provided uniform presence at parades and sporting events throughout the city. From there, Schwartz, from 1998 to 2001, worked as an investigator, handling robberies, burglaries, and domestic violence cases. He also
Jason Schwartz

served with the New York Police Department Anti-Crime Unit as plain clothes patrol that focused on high crime reduction. Crime prevention was achieved by, among other methods, removing illegal firearms from the streets. In 2003, Schwartz graduated to the role as detective, a position he worked at until his retirement in 2020. Schwartz investigated major crimes including homicides, non-fatal shootings, robberies and burglaries, sexual assaults, and missing persons. He also notified the Chief of Detectives, Chief of Department, and Chief of Patrol on sensitive high-profile incidents that occurred throughout the city. He responded to crime scenes and coordinated with uniform members of patrol of all ranks to preserve the integrity of the crime scene while

Schwartz currently lives in East Islip with his wife, Paula, and their two children, Lenny, and Zach. The crime issue made its way to the recent Nassau County elections, especially in the District Attorney contest, where the issue of bail reform was prominent. There isn’t much that entities like East Hills can do over such legal matters, but under Schwartz’s leadership, it can prevent such crimes from taking place at all.

Glen Cove Resident Sworn Into GCPD At City Council Meeting BY NATALIA VENTURA
nventura@antonmediagroup.com
O
n Tuesday, Jan. 25, the City of Glen Cove held a City Council Meeting at 7:30 p.m. After standing for the pledge of allegiance, Mayor Pamela D. Panzenbeck, the City Council and others in attendance shared a moment of silence for the two fallen police officers in NYC during the line of duty, Jason Rivera, 22, and Wilbert Mora, 27. City Clerk Tina Pemberton announced that the Covid testing site at the City Stadium on Morris Ave., “is still up and running” from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., 7 days a week, by appointment or walk-up. To book an appointment, more information is available on the City of Glen Cove website. Panzenbeck then commented, “Now tonight, we have a very special event here and I’m so happy you’re all here to witness this. Tonight, I’m going to speak about someone very, very special. Someone who will be very, very special to all of us.” Glen Cove resident Philip Grella was approved by all members of City Council, including Mayor Panzenback, to be sworn in as a new member of the Glen Cove Police Department (GCPD). “Philip Grella is a young man, he’s one of our own, he’s born and raised in Glen Cove. He’s a very amazing young man, and he has been selected to become our newest police officer,” said Panzenbeck. Grella was a golf caddy at the Nassau Country Club from 2012 to 2018, where he eventually became the lead caddy and was chosen to caddy at the Women’s Amateur event in 2014. During that time, Panzenbeck was one of the scorers, which might have been the first time she met Grella, Panzenbeck commented. Panzenbeck continued to express statements about Grella on behalf of Lieutenant John Nagle of the GCPD. “Philip began serving the Glen Cove community in 2015 when he joined the Glen Cove Fire Department. Phil continues to serve as a fireman and is currently a captain in the department. His role model for that was clearly his father.” Grella has also been serving his community and country since July 2018 as a United States Marine. “Philip was promoted in May from Private First Class to Lance Corporal,”

continued Panzenbeck. Grella was enrolled in the Nassau Police Academy as a Hempstead police officer in Dec. 2020. Grella has made 15 arrests since he completed his training. “Philip has decided now to transfer over to the Glen Cove Police Department so he can better serve the community he grew up in,” stated Panzenbeck. Grella is a Glen Cove School District alumnus, he graduated from the Glen Cove High School in 2015. Grella continued his education at the New York Institute of Technology (NYIT), where he majored in Criminal Justice and graduated in 2018. “While in the United States Marine Corps., which is 2018 to present, Phil assembled and encrypted satellite communications. So he is quite a guy, and he is just what we need in our Police Department,” Panzenbeck stated. In 2016, Grella supported the GCPD with a sting operation that intended on discovering businesses selling alcohol to minors. During his time as a student in Finley Middle School, Grella played football with Nagle as his coach in 2011. Grella enjoys dedicating time to sports, mainly lacrosse, hockey, and football.
“In 2015 to 2016 Phil volunteered as a coach and mentor for the Glen Cove Junior Lacrosse Program. Phil also played lacrosse while in college, unfortunately Glen Cove PD has no lacrosse team either. Phil is currently on the Hempstead Police Department Hockey Team,” continued Panzenbeck. After Mayor Panzenbeck finished citing words from Lieutenant Nagle, she commented, “Here comes one of the most wonderful parts of being the Mayor. I offer one of the following resolutions, Phillip W. Grella III as police officer, annual salary of $42,000 effective Jan. 27, 2022.” After City Clerk Pemberton received approval from all City Council members and Mayor Panzenbeck, Grella was sworn in as a Glen Cove police officer. “Congratulations, welcome to the force,” commented Councilwoman Marsha Silverman. Councilman Kevin Maccarone also stated, “Congratulations, and stay safe out there.” “I have to say, that is the best thing I’ve had to do besides swearing in the Fire Department last night, it’s a very proud moment for me as Mayor. Thank you all for coming,” stated Panzenbeck. Resolutions proposed by Mayor Panzenbeck were all approved by each
City Council member. The first approved resolution was to allow Panzenbeck to enter into an annual professional agreement with Capital Markets Advisors, LLC, to deliver financial advisory services, effective till December 31, 2022. “As a courtesy, there are no interest rates in their fees for 2022,” stated Panzenbeck. Section 6D was the fourth resolution approved, which allows Panzenbeck to accept and enter into an agreement with Telstar Integrated Solutions. This will provide city hall with a surveillance camera system to view the windows of the financial office, in the amount of $2,175. “These cameras are linked from City Hall, directly to the GCPD for the Finance Department. That’s important,” commented Panzenbeck. Panzenbeck was approved to accept $22,500 from the NYS Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS). The Glen Cove Youth Bureau was awarded this grant to continue implementing their programs for the youth of Glen Cove.

ave the date, May 21, 2022. The Long Island Region of Special Olympics New York is planning its Spring Games North after a two-year hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The Farmingdale Athletic Complex at Howitt Middle School is set to host the competition. “We are incredibly excited for the return of Spring Games, not only for the competition but also to be coming home to Farmingdale schools,” Special Olympics New York President/CEO Stacey Hengsterman said. “On behalf of the hundreds of athletes who will participate in Spring Games, thank you to Superintendent Defendini as well as the district faculty, coaches, and community volunteers who are making it possible.” The Spring Games anticipate having over 500 athletes, 150 coaches and hundreds of spectators and volunteers. Howitt Middle School will host events such as track and field and power-lifting. The brand new Aquatic Center at Howitt Middle School will host swimming events. The district is looking at potential locations to hold the tennis portion of the competition. “You can see a wide array of athleticism that is going to be there from highly-skilled and

will be able to handle an event of this size.” Farmingdale School District will begin to reach out to those in the community to help take part in this event, which will be held on May 21, 2022. Those interested can help in three ways. First will be through the volunteer effort of getting the facility ready leading up to the event and then helping clean up and get the facility back to normal. Second, the district will rely on local vendors to help establish the Olympic Village. Specifically, the district will be looking for vendors to provide games and workshops for people to participate in. Third, the Special Olympics will be looking for donations to help get the event running. “This is a massive volunteer effort,” Defendini said. “We’re going to need a tremendous amount of volunteers to get this event off the ground. Farmingdale is a great place for that. We’re the kind of community when help is needed—help is there.” For more information about the Farmingdale Union Free School District, visit www.farmingdaleschools.org and like the Facebook page: @FarmingdaleSchoolDistrict. —Submitted by the Farmingdale School District

YESCCC’s PACT Launches Parent Campaign Alcohol & Teens Don’t Mix. Be Their Guide. Don’t Provide
Y
ES Community Counseling Center’s Partnering in Action Change for Tomorrow (PACT) Initiative recently launched the underage drinking prevention campaign: Alcohol and Teens Don’t Mix! Be Their Guide. Don’t Provide. The campaign is aimed to help parents to talk with their youth and young adults about the dangers of alcohol and increase youth/young adults’ refusal skills when it comes to underage and binge drinking. PACT’s ad campaign provides parents access to their website landing page (pactyes.org/ parents), which provides information regarding the dangers of underage drinking; strategies to talk with your kids; and how to help your kids practice refusal skills and exit plans. Research shows that parents are the number 1 reason young people decide not to drink. Unfortunately, in most communities, only about 50 percent of teens report
their parents talked with them in the past year about the dangers of alcohol. Talking with teens is crucial to help them make healthy decisions when it comes to alcohol.
YESCCC’s PACT Initiative works with five school districts and communities in Farmingdale, Island Trees, Levittown, Massapequa and Plainedge along with the three community coalitions: Farmingdale Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention Team, Levittown Community Action Coalition and Massapequa Takes Action Coalition. Additional partners include each community’s Chambers of Commerce in Farmingdale, Levittown, and Massapequa; Long Island Prevention Resource Center, Nassau County Police Department and the New York Counterdrug Task Force. For more information about how communities are working together to promote healthy youth, contact PACT via email at pact@yesccc.org or at 516-799-3203, ext. 131. —Submitted by the YES Community Counseling Center

Developing Character
Massapequa Soccer Club keeps
BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO
dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com
F
or the past 52 years, the Massapequa Soccer Club (MSC) has laid out quite a foundation of community involvement, with thousands of girls and boys coming up through their program. In striving to instill the ideals of the sport—discipline, dedication, teamwork—MSC has made a point of instilling in players what psychologist Carol Dweck defines as a “growth mindset,” where learning and skill development are paramount. And while these tenets are meant to be used on the pitch, these are skills that easily carry over to the non-sports world. For MSC club president Yuri Fishman, who came to the United States from the Soviet Union as a 16-year-old soccer player who went on to become a high school and college All-American in West Hartford, Conn. and at Princeton University respectively, it’s a characteristic of MSC he’s rightly proud of. “Every year we put kids into a level-appropriate college program, if they want to play,” Fishman said. “I played college soccer. It was a great experience. My best friends are my college teammates. We want to give those experiences to those kids. Maybe one or two will go to the professional ranks, but most of them will come out as engineers, nurses, doctors or whatever. But they will develop that team-building experience that will get them to perform in the real world.” The mark MSC has made on the local youth sports landscape hasn’t gone unnoticed. The Massapequa Soccer Club was recently honored by the Eastern New York Youth Soccer Association (ENYYSA) as Club of the Month for January. Founded in 1970 by Massapequans Pat McComiskey and Hank Oustecky, the inaugural organizational meeting featured the involvement of a number of prominent individuals including New York Cosmos player/coach Gordon Bradley, Massapequa High School boys junior varsity coach Bob Elder, U.S. Men’s National Soccer team player Joe Maca, Massapequa High School assistant principal Alan Maher, CW Post Athletic Director Wayne Sunderland and Farmingdale State Men’s Soccer coach Robert “Bo” Wernersbach. While March 1971 was when the first registration for boys 6 through 18 was held with 259 boys and 18 adults responding, the enthusiasm

By 1974, roughly 1,000 children were playing in the MSC at a time when most other youth soccer clubs didn’t exist. Along the way, numerous milestones were reached that included an ongoing Father’s Day weekend intramural tournament founded in 1974, the Lincoln Page Memorial Day Tournament named after the former club president/tourney director that launched in 1980 as well as numerous spring kick-off tournaments and college showcase tourneys held after Thanksgiving. A major MSC accomplishment was joining alongside the
Huntington Boys Club (HBC) to start a program in 1978 for special needs children playing soccer in the Long Island Junior Soccer League (LIJSL). Both programs continue to this day under the banner of TOPSoccer, with Massapequa having 35 kids currently playing. Given how many past and present players volunteer to help with this program, Fishman sees this as another example of character building MSC engages in with its charges on and off the soccer field. “Past President Kevin Ferrari, who is an MSC alum, runs our special needs program,” Fishman explained. “All three of my kids participated, not as players, but as helpers. I didn’t have to
force them to do that. Kevin gets help from players in the club, who are giving back to the community. We’re trying to instill in players that sense of a club and a sense of the community.” With roughly 1,000 children participating, MSC focuses on developmental exercises for participants, with the competitive travel facet of the league not kicking in until U9. Fishman explains the goal up to that point is to “...make sure they don’t get discouraged and quit soccer at the ripe age of 8.” With there being four teams per age group up until the players turn 13, MSC runs somewhere in the order of 40 to 50 teams depending on the year. Fishman is quick to point out that MSC’s success

in keeping all these moving parts flowing smoothly begins and ends with community involvement. “I don’t want to overlook the importance of us having a great board of directors,” he said. “Some of the board are Massapequa alums. They grew up in town and in the club and are now back and giving back. And these are all volunteer positions.” All this fervor and focus on and off the soccer field has yielded quite a bit of success. The Massapequa Falcons won the Athena Cup, the Girls-Under-19 national championship in 1988, and the Massapequa Arsenal took home the McGuire Cup, the Boys-Under-19 national championship in 2015. In addition, a long list of club alumni who have donned MSC’s maroon and yellow have gone on to play pro soccer. That list includes current Red Bulls Sean and Dylan Nealis, Alan Bodenstein, Ray Hughes, Jim Kilmeade, Alain Maca, current Toronto FC President Bill Manning, Larry Sunderland and Dan Vitiello on the boys side. For girls alumnae, the list includes sisters Christina, Gina and Vickie DiMartino,
sisters Mary-Theresa, Jean and Margie Varas, Kim DeCesare, Danielle Egan, Laura Martin, Emily Pickering, Chemar Smith, Christie Welsh and Jodi Yerys. Plus Matt Vowinkel and Hope Breslin were recently drafted into MLS and the NWSL respectively. For Fishman, it all comes back to that solid thread of selflessness and love of the game that has been a key to MSC’s longevity. “The soccer landscape has changed and while [there are] these so-called academies, we continue to stay in our lane,” he said. “We pivot a little but the overall mission stays the same. We’re still an elite community club. We provide the service for everyone in the community because we do the right thing and attract the right people to run the club. People who really dedicate their time and effort and share their knowledge. That’s what it takes.” Visit www.massapequasc.com to find out more about the Massapequa Soccer Club.

ast summer, 96 new air conditioner units were installed in Jericho High School classrooms, practically completing the years-long project of making our school fully air-conditioned. Assistant Superintendent for Business Affairs Mr. Victor Manuel said, “This summer was the final push for the classrooms in the high school and middle school.” He added, “At this point, every single instructional space in this building is air-conditioned, which is great news.” Prior to the final push this summer, the district had made air conditioning available in many parts of the building, such as the library, cafeteria, Little Theater and auditorium. All of the A.C. units are controlled centrally. Mr. Manuel said, “There’s a system that we use for all of our HVAC (Heat Ventilation and Air Conditioning), and we’re able to set the temperature globally for all of these units. We set them initially at 72ºF.” During cooler weather, the air conditioning units will only perform the task of keeping the classrooms warm.

From measuring the temperature in multiple classrooms, we found that the school was accurate in saying that the universal temperature is 72ºF-73ºF. Teachers noticed the new air conditioning in their rooms. English teacher Ms. Hederian said, “I think that it’s a fabulous change, and I think it improves the functioning of so many classrooms.”
Math teacher Ms. Badalian said, “I think it’s been great. I think students have been able to focus better. I remember years ago it was so hot in all the buildings and students couldn’t focus as well. Now at least everybody can concentrate, and I think everyone just as a whole is a lot more comfortable.” Students feel air conditioning
contributes to a more enjoyable school environment. “It makes me more productive because I don’t have to worry about the temperature,” said sophomore Jaden Y. While the majority of the building is air-conditioned, there are still some aspects of the project that are yet to be completed. “The wing that leads to the swimming pool, as well as all the tech labs down there, are going to be upgraded and redone this coming summer,” said Mr. Manuel. Mr. Manuel and Director of Buildings and Grounds Mr. Michael Hahn have been actively supervising the project to install air conditioning. Mr. Manuel is proud of his work and said, “The auditorium and the Little Theater, the lighting and ceiling throughout the building, the air conditioning throughout the high school–there have been so many upgrades throughout the district that we’re proud of. We’re happy to see that we are providing a better environment for the students to learn.” —Submitted by JerEcho—Jericho high school’s student newspaper

Take Out: Finer Dining On The Go Celebrate your big occasions at home with all the trimmings While health officials have recently touted the decline in virus cases, many people have become used to the concept of dining on-the-go and actually prefer it to traditional dine-in accommodations.

Take A Fresh Look At Gluten-Free Treats Steiner’s brownies BY CHRISTY HINKO
chinko@antonmediagroup.com
Steiner’s Coffee Cake of New York, which has been rapidly growing since its official launch in June 2021, is leading the way in the gluten-free products market with their surprisingly delicious gluten-free flour blend and baked goods. Jennifer Steiner Pool (a proud Glen Cove local) and her mother Nanci Steiner have been expanding the business, which now has product in retail locations in Connecticut, Florida, New Jersey, Minnesota, Tennessee, Texas, and, of course, New York.

“All of this time, the scientist in my mom was tinkering with coming up with the perfect gluten-free flour blend,” said Jennifer, president of Steiner’s Coffee Cake of New York. “If you were diagnosed as gluten-intolerant or with celiac disease 35-40 years ago, I think it’s fair to say there was nothing to eat.” Nanci, the company’s creator in chief, agreed.

All-Day Wintry Meals BY CHRISTY HINKO
Chinko@antonmediagroup.com
Nothing says cozy days like all-day meals cooking into greatness in the slow cooker. The ease of cooking with a slow cooker is preferred because it’s typically a one-pot dish with minimal fix-it and forget-it preparation steps. Some recipes call for a small amount of stovetop cooking, usually to brown meats (which do not brown on their own in the slow cooker). A tiny bit of prep work yields a soul-satisfying culmination. Here are four of my personal slow-cooked recipes.
Slow-Cooked Chicken
Slow-Cooked Cabbage Rolls
1 c water 4 chicken bouillon cubes whole cut-up chicken Seasoned salt Minced garlic Dried parsley 4 Tbsp butter
½ c cooked white rice 12 leaves cabbage 1 egg, beaten ¼ c milk ¼ c minced onion 1 lb extra-lean ground beef 1¼ tsp salt
Add 1 c water and 4 chicken bouillon cubes to slow cooker. Place chicken cuts in slow cooker. Season to taste with seasoned salt (I use Lawry’s or Goya seasoning salt, but use whichever you prefer), minced garlic and dried parsley. Cut small 1 Tbsp pats of butter and place randomly over cuts of chicken. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Boil cabbage leaves 2 minutes; drain. In large bowl, combine 1 cup cooked rice, egg, milk, onion, ground beef, salt and pepper; stir well to combine. Place about ¼ cup of meat mixture in center of each
1¼ tsp ground black pepper 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce 1 Tbsp brown sugar 1 Tbsp lemon juice 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce cabbage leaf, and roll up, tucking in ends. Place rolls in slow cooker, tucked side down. In small bowl, combine tomato sauce, brown sugar, lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce. Pour over cabbage rolls. Cover and cook on low 8 to 9 hours.

EVERYONE
Crowd Pleasing, Anytime Dips BY CHRISTY HINKO
chinko@antonmediagroup.com
Hands down, dips and spreads make the all-time favorites list when it comes to appetizers, but are as equally yummy as the finger food appetizer counterparts like deviled eggs, chicken wings, nachos and quesadillas. That said, dips and spreads are in a class of their own.
of Mineola
T
he list of possible ingredients is endless, although many have a standard base ingredient, a cream cheese or a sour cream. The added ingredients are wide-ranging too: anything from some of the more savory things like artichokes, avocados, bacon, mushrooms, olives, herbs, spices, beans, cheeses, nuts and seafood to sweets like yogurts and fruity mangoes and apples. They are so versatile and come in so many variations and easily complement any holiday, event or occasion. And when you are planning a party, your appetizer menu is one of the first things you consider, including some of the
Since 1947
more preliminary questions to ask yourself when adding a dip or spread to your menu. It’s important to consider how easily the dip or spread transfers. Is it scoopable? Is it spreadable? Do you need a sturdy cracker or chip to pair with it? Which utensils are best suited for the job? Is it served in a bowl or on a plate? Is it served warm or chilled? So whether it’s a tailgating or football party, a barbecue or beach picnic, a bridal shower or a holiday get-together, dips and spreads are sure to be crowd-pleasers. Here are five of my personal family recipes, some have been passed down more than four generations.
Cheese Ball 8 oz. cream cheese, softened ¼ c. chopped walnuts (or almonds or pecans) 1 Tbsp cooking sherry ¼ c. walnuts, toasted and chopped In medium bowl, combine first three ingredients. Shape into a ball and chill, covered for at least three hours. Roll in toasted walnuts to coat. Serve with crackers; Triscuit or any sturdy cracker work best. Makes about ½ cup.
Creamy Spinach Dip 8 oz. cream cheese, cubed ¼ c. whipping cream 5 oz. frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained 2 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese 2 Tbsp diced pimento 2 tsp fine chopped onion 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce ½ tsp ground thyme ¼ tsp garlic salt Combine cream cheese and whipping cream in greased “Little Dipper” Crockpot (warming slow cooker). Cover and heat until cheese is melted, 30 to 60 minutes. Add remaining ingredients. Cover and heat 30 minutes. Serve with raw vegetables, crackers or bread pieces.

Sour Cream And Chives Dip ½ c. mayonnaise ½ c. sour cream 1 Tbsp chopped fresh chives pinch of garlic salt Mix ingredients together and chill for 30 minutes before serving.
Seven Layer Taco Dip 16 oz. sour cream 1 pkg taco seasoning (Ortega or like) 16 oz. can of refried beans 1 lb. browned ground beef 6 oz. can black olives, chopped 1 c. iceberg lettuce, shredded or chopped small 1 c. diced tomatoes 2 c. shredded cheese Mix sour cream and a package of taco seasoning in a medium bowl. Spread this mixture in a 9x11 casserole dish. Layer the remaining ingredients over the sour cream mixture in thin layers. There are several things that I change each time I make this. Sometimes I soften the refried beans in the microwave for 30 seconds before I drop small
teaspoons across the sour cream mixture. It does not spread that easily. Other times, I mix it with the ground beef and then spread it. Sometimes I serve the dip cold, other times I warm it in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes so the cheese melts. If I serve it warmed, I leave the lettuce out of the recipe altogether.

Dining In Old World Charm Davenport Press is a mainstay in county seat BY CHRISTY HINKO
chinko@antonmediagroup.com
There are very few places remaining on Long Island that make you forget your time and place and transport your back to a simpler time in history. Davenport Press Restaurant in Mineola is one of those magical treasure spots.
T
he Davenport Building was built in 1896 as the Nassau County Trust. In 1924 it became the Davenport Press and remained a printing press until 1978 when its present owners converted it to a restaurant. The Davenport Building is rich with history. The dining rooms’ exposed interior brick are lined with shelves of antiques. And the subtle rumble of the train passing by just feet away from the building is charming and adds plenty of character to this dining experience. If you are a true foodie, you will likely have trouble making a quick
decision from this expansive menu. In addition to its permanent menu, Davenport Press offers a wide variety of daily specials based on market demand and availability of specialty menu items. To start, enjoy a specialty cocktail such as the espresso martini with Van Gogh espresso vodka, Bailey’s Irish cream and coffee ($13) or a glass of wine from the comprehensive regional wine list.

Do You Have A Cookie Dealer?
What started as a joke between Juan and Karen Morel—her cooking up a supply, Juan slinging “the goods” from his bag at bodybuilding shows—became a way of life. Hushed parking lot trades gave way to internet deals for those who were in the know. It wasn’t long before they outgrew the part-time gig and the space. They moved into their own bakery in 2019 and run the cartel full-time. Visit www.longislandweekly.com/my-cookie-dealer to hear about this deliciousness that has people going crazy.

COFFEE CAKE from page 4A
WHERE TO BUY
by his mother, Cyrille Steiner. “He worked alongside my father at Universal Sign Corporation until his passing at 90 years of age,” Jennifer said. “He was a man of very few words.” Malcolm lived in Roslyn and worked in Glen Cove, although not in the food industry. “His coffee cake was one of his favorite things to make,” Jennifer said. “My mom couldn’t enjoy anything he was making.” In May of 2016, after the death of many of cakes in Nanci’s kitchen, she nailed it. It was off the charts perfect. Nanci, a retired science teacher, shared one of the biggest scientific taboos that almost delayed their launch. “I didn’t write it down,” Nanci said. “When you’re tinkering, you’re just throwing in a little of this and a little of that.” They were able to recreate the perfect blend. “She really wanted it to be so good that nobody would know it was gluten free,” Jennifer said. “Looking back now, that was brilliant because we can sell our baked goods to anybody.”
The Steiner brand carries cakes, cookies, brownies and flour. Their game plan was only to sell the gluten-free flour blend. “We needed proof of concept though,” said Nanci. “There were a million cookies out there so we decided to go with coffee cake.” It is Malcolm’s recipe. Jennifer said that Grassroots Naturally Delicious in Glen Head was the first local business that believed in their product and agreed to carry it, for which they are grateful. “One of our unsung heroes who doesn’t get enough credit is my mother’s mom; our brownies are her recipe,” Jennifer said. Nanci added, “She was in no way, shape or form a cook or a baker, but she loved to make brownies.” Over the past year, Steiner’s
Coffee Cake of New York has achieved some exciting highlights, including: an expansion into Stew Leonard’s, presence in Circle K stores and a collaboration with CoCo Confections (based in Sea Cliff ) which is now dipping Steiner’s ginger snaps in chocolate. Today, Nanci focuses on the research and development (R&D) while Jennifer, whose career background has primarily been in marketing and operations, runs the company. The mother-daughter team loves selling their line of gluten-free, nut-free, kosher products to consumers. These include brownies, ginger snaps, all-purpose gluten-free baking flour, and of course, “the very best coffee cake in the world.”

Comptroller Unveils School Tax Levy Cap F or the first time since 2019, property tax levy growth for school districts will be capped at 2 percent, up from 1.23 percent last year, according to data released recently by State Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli. The tax cap, which first applied to local governments and school districts in 2012, limits annual tax levy increases to the lesser of the rate of inflation or 2 percent. School districts may override the cap with 60 percent voter approval of their budget. DiNapoli’s office calculated the inflation factor at 4.7 percent for those with a June 30, 2023 fiscal year end. “School district and municipal officials must remain fiscally cautious to stay under the cap as they prepare their budgets,” DiNapoli said. “Even with significant funding from the state and federal governments, school and local communities are faced with the rapid increase in inflation, pandemic surge, and trying to retain and recruit employees.” The 2 percent levy limit affects the tax cap calculations for 676 school districts and 10 cities with fiscal years starting July 1, 2022, including
the “Big Four” cities of Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse and Yonkers. The cap was one of the signature policies of former Governor Andrew Cuomo, and came into effect in fiscal years beginning in 2012. During much of this period, inflation was low and school districts and municipalities on the whole managed to incorporate rising costs.
However, experts always warned that high inflation would cause difficulties if the cap was limited to 2 percent.
Tax Cap Key Components
• What is the property tax cap? The tax cap law establishes a limit on the annual growth of property
taxes levied by local governments and school districts to 2 percent or the rate of inflation, whichever is less. • Who is subject to the tax cap? The cap applies to all independent school districts outside of the Big Five Cities (i.e. dependent school districts) and to all local governments including counties, cities, towns, villages and special districts. The cap does not apply to New York City. • Are there exceptions to the tax cap? There are limited, narrow exclusions to the cap, including certain costs of significant judgments arising out of tort actions and unusually large year-to-year increases in pension contribution rates. • Is there an override mechanism to the tax cap? The tax levy cannot exceed the cap unless 60 percent of voters (for school districts) or 60 percent of the total voting power of the governing body (for local governments) approve such increase. —Submitted by the Office of the Comptroller and the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance

ISLAND TREES
Roslyn Grist Mill:
202223 UNIVERSAL PREKINDERGARTEN INTEREST FORM www.islandtrees.org For the 2022-23 school year, New York State has allocated $264,600 in school aid specifically for the Island Trees Universal Pre-Kindergarten (UPK) program. The funding is not “universal,” but will fully fund the tuition for forty-nine (49) district students. This means forty-nine (49) Island Trees students will be able to attend a free, full-day UPK program that mirrors the K-12 school calendar. New York State has not increased the funding allocated from last school year. Please note that the program will be housed at the new UPK Center in the Stephen E. Karopczyc School building. We expect to continue the partnership with Variety Child Learning Center for the future. As a result of this unique working relationship, many of our students will benefit from the extra service professionals that Variety utilizes with their/our integrated UPK program. Parents will hear more about the program at the orientation after the selection process. Since we understand that parents need to make plans for next year, we will start collecting names for our lottery beginning Monday, February 28, 2022. To move forward with a UPK program, NYS requires each school district to collect the names of eligible students (four years of age by December 1st) so that a lottery can be conducted by an independent auditor to fill these 49 available slots. Proof of residency will be required after the lottery. After last year’s lottery, we discovered a number of ineligible applicants (age and residency) – we have a waiting list and move in sequential order based on the lottery selection. Please fill out this Google Form by March 18, 2022, to be considered for the lottery. If we do not have sufficient respondents, we may extend the deadline in the event we are unable to fill the forty-nine (49) seats. We plan to hold the lottery sometime at the end of March (TBD). *There is no guarantee that filling out this form will result in a UPK slot for your child.
202223 ISLAND TREES UNIVERSAL PREKINDERGARTEN FORMULARIO DE INTERÉS Para el año escolar 2022-23, el estado de Nueva York ha asignado $264,600 en ayuda escolar específicamente para el programa Universal Pre-Kindergarten (UPK) de Island Trees. La financiación no es “universal”, pero financiará completamente la matrícula de cuarenta y nueve (49) estudiantes del distrito. Esto significa que cuarenta y nueve (49) estudiantes de Island Trees podrán asistir a un programa UPK gratuito de día completo que refleja el calendario escolar K-12. El estado de Nueva York no ha aumentado los fondos asignados del último año escolar. Tenga en cuenta que el programa se llevará a cabo en el nuevo Centro UPK en el edificio de la Escuela Stephen E. Karopczyc. Esperamos continuar la asociación con Variety Child Learning Center en el futuro. Como resultado de esta relación de trabajo única, muchos de nuestros estudiantes se beneficiarán de los profesionales de servicios adicionales que Variety utiliza con su/nuestro programa UPK integrado. Los padres escucharán más sobre el programa en la orientación después del proceso de selección. Dado que entendemos que los padres deben hacer planes para el próximo año, comenzaremos a recopilar nombres para nuestra lotería a partir del lunes 28 de febrero de 2022. Para avanzar con un programa UPK, el estado de Nueva York requiere que cada distrito escolar recopile los nombres de los estudiantes elegibles (cuatro años de edad antes del primero (1) de diciembre) para que un auditor independiente pueda realizar una lotería para llenar estos 49 espacios disponibles. Se requerirá prueba de residencia después de la lotería. Después de la lotería del año pasado, descubrimos una cantidad de solicitantes no elegibles (edad y residencia): tenemos una lista de espera y nos mudamos en orden secuencial según la selección de la lotería. Complete este formulario de Google antes del 18 de marzo de 2022 para ser considerado para la lotería. Si no tenemos suficientes encuestados, podemos extender el plazo en caso de que no podamos llenar los cuarenta y nueve (49) asientos. Planeamos realizar la lotería en algún momento a fines de marzo (TBD). *No hay garantía de que completar este formulario resulte en un espacio UPK para su hijo.

A Witness To History nature. The small shops along Old Northern would indeed survive. And that gave added impetus to Grist Mill restoration. In recent news, a time capsule was discovered in 2020 as that work went forward. The items included Civil War coins, two Indian head pennies and a Haitian 20 centimes. Also uncovered were two letters, one by Romolo Caprelli, an Italian-born artisan and the other by Steven Speedling, a Roslyn builder and descendant of a Hessian soldier who fought in the Revolutionary War. Once restoration is complete, those letters will be on display. When local residents became involved in the project, it was estimated that the entire cost would amount to $2 million. Those funds were to be raised through county and village grants, along with matching contributions from the community. In time, the county will transfer the title back to Roslyn, whose board would then allow the Roslyn Landmark Society to operate it back to its former use as a museum. By 2018, the restoration project was in full swing, with the
major goal of returning the structure to street level. In 2018, preservation efforts believed the entire project would take four years to be complete. Downtown Roslyn has never lost its fighting spirit. The malls haven’t wrecked it yet. And when Grist Mill restoration is complete, there will be another great reason to take the family to Roslyn and relive a key element of the village’s past.

he life and legacy of the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. lives on as a reminder of all that can be achieved when people come together to champion the rights of their peers and serves as a beacon of hope for continued change in our society. In the Westbury Union Free School District, Martin Luther King Jr. Day served as the perfect opportunity to shed light on all the work the district continuously does to bring the community closer to one another and to provide support to peers. While the school was closed in observance of the federal holiday, the Westbury JV boys basketball team and their esteemed coach, Keith Moody, used the day to be of service to their community. “During this year’s MLK Day of Service, the wonderful young men of the Westbury JV basketball team dedicated their time to doing good for their peers and the community and we could not be more proud of the way they represent all that the Westbury School District stands for,” said Superintendent of Schools Dr. Tahira DuPree Chase. “Our JV team helped create care packages that will help mitigate the spread of COVID-19 amongst residents in Westbury and their united act of kindness was made all the more meaningful given the nature of the day.” The team partnered with Westbury/ New Cassel NAACP at the Yes We Can Community Center to help prepare COVID-19 care packages which

During the course of the day, the boys had the chance to learn more about their district and its residents from members of the NAACP that were in attendance. The events of the day paid tribute to the legacy of Dr. King in that kindness, patience, and support—all characteristics which were paramount to the success of Dr. King and the Civil Rights Movement—were palpable in the air as different groups came together to be of service to their shared community. —Submitted by the Westbury School District

This competitive challenge gave them the opportunity to
demonstrate their knowledge and capabilities in a business environment. With that, students were presented 13 categories to compete in at the beginning of the school year and worked diligently to present their solutions to volunteer judges who work in various professions. The district applauds both Jordy and Esther on their accomplishment and is proud of the hard work they’ve contributed to the competition.

Beach. This beach has always been a favorite of mine and a great asset to our entire community,” Legislator DeRiggi-Whitton said. “Achieving this goal has turned out to be quite an arduous task, and we have faced many twists and turns along the way. Now, we are taking one step of a few that needs to be taken, and I am deeply appreciative for everyone’s cooperation and patience throughout this process.” Since becoming a Nassau County Legislator in 2012, Legislator DeRiggi-Whitton has secured essential county funding for studies and worked closely with the DEC, NYIT Associate Professor and overseer of the school’s Center for Water Resources Management, Sarah Meyland, H2M architects + Engineers and former Glen Cove Mayor Tim Tenke to determine the
cause of the contamination and devise a strategy for ameliorating the pollution so the beach can reopen. Last fall, the New York State Department of Conservation (DEC) has approved a remediation plan for Crescent Beach. In addition to installing the Helix systems, plans call for the clearing of pipes and the planting of sea grass and other wetland plants - the roots of which effectively absorb harmful bacteria without harming the plants themselves. In addition, a basin slope will be created, and pipes will be installed to channel the estuary water into a bioswale (sloped retention area) where hundreds of plantings will provide natural filtration to purify the water before it flows to Crescent Beach and Hempstead Harbor. —Submitted by the office of Legislator Delia DeRiggi-Whitton

EDITORIAL OUR OPINION Bumper Sticker Politics money wasted/unaccounted helping lazy, shiftless people who cheat the system. These stereotypes are outdated and rarely squared with reality. For one, white women make up the majority of recipients of the various government programs under the rubric of welfare. But they are outdated mainly thanks to budget cuts and work requirements put in place first by President Reagan and then by President Clinton. It was the latter, a Democrat in a ”Only Nixon could have gone to China” move, who made the most profound changes as he ended “welfare as we know it” and earned the spite of the left ever since. Let’s face it, in this country we have a tendency to disparage the indigent and others who cannot, for whatever reason, fend for themselves and depend on government largesse. Which contrasts with
how generous we are as a people. Americans are well known for opening their “hearts and wallets” to innumerable good causes. And yet those of us living in comfortable means have a hard time dealing with poverty when we come face to face with it. When we travel to the city we try to avoid and disdain the homeless and beggars. “Go flip burgers,” is one’s natural reaction, perhaps not realizing that poverty and homelessness are intractable, complex problems that defy easy solutions. A quick look through the historical pages tells us that government welfare dates back to before Christ. In whatever forms it took, for centuries the church and the state did what they could to help the ill, the elderly, the needy. The Great Recession of 2009-10 saw an unprecedented number of middle class

people fall into poverty, many through the loss of their houses. Welfare kept them afloat until the recovery. Someone we know used to mock “government handouts” and those on the receiving end until he found himself in straightened circumstances during that deep financial downturn. He became grateful for SNAP benefits, formerly known as food stamps. Often, it only takes the loss of a regular paycheck for the bottom to drop out. During the depths of the pandemic-fueled unemployment, Nassau County partnered with the great food banks that operate on Long Island to hand out free food. People observed that the recipients often drove nice cars. Well, yes, a car may be a status symbol, but it’s not always an indicator of financial solvency. Maybe the owner was indebted and over their head and could not afford groceries that particular week. Surveys reveal that more than half of Americans do not have enough money saved to cover a $1,000 emergency. That does not denote a healthy state of affairs. So to that person with the bumper sticker in front of us: We genuinely hope you never need help from the government. But be glad to know it’s available. —Frank Rizzo

At a traffic light the other day, we spotted a message on the bumper of a pickup in front of us: “Work harder. Millions on welfare depend on you.” We understand. The sentiment comes from the all too human reaction to seeing someone else get “something for nothing” while one works hard, makes sacrifices and overcomes obstacles to keep the family clothed and housed and put their children through college. The feeling may be genuine, but its speaks to a cluster of prejudices and misinformed opinions that the loaded word, welfare, elicits in people. For many, the first association might be of able-bodied African American men shirking work while collecting welfare checks generation after generation. Or “welfare queens” who wear furs and drive Cadillacs while filching the system. Or of taxpayers’

363: Learning Tolerance From An Area Code The new additional area code for Nassau County has been officially announced: it’s 363. 516 and 363 are not going to divide the county geographically; they’ll be mixed together so you won’t know where in the county a person is calling from based on the area code. Actually it’s hard to tell anymore even though 631 is for Suffolk County and 516 has been for Nassau. With cell phones, the 631s are living in the midst of the 516s. And vice versa. The blending of phone numbers is sort of a symbol of what is happening to our population in general. Nowadays being a “Long Islander” no longer identifies us by race or country of origin. We’re like a mixed salad, like stained glass, like mosaic tile: each of us is an individual making up a colorful larger whole. This is a delightfully different metaphor for our diversity than what was comfortably taught in the 1970s when I was a teenager. Back then our nation was considered a “melting pot,” where people from different lands, races, cultures and religions all melded together into a new society of unity and
needs, desires and budgets. Of course throughout 516, 631 and now 363 there are limits—building codes, local ordinances, etc.—to keep too much free expression from impinging on the folks next door. One is not free to build a 10-story home in the midst of a residential neighborhood which limits the heights of buildings. There is a balance between individual freedoms Fr.

The politicians, who have never met nature’s wrath, will give you some glib answer which reveals how uninformed they are about the state of their world. But like the words or not, we are paying the price for years and years of neglect, which has caused the climate changes we are experiencing. Thirty or 40 years ago there were predictions that climate change would come in many forms and the reaction was that it was just some nut job trying to give us nightmares. But today the horrors have come to pass and the non-believers are shrugging off the day-by-day reporting. Try

the 363’s? “That’s ridiculous!” we would automatically respond. 516s and 363s can live side by side without hatred and rancor. Well so can people of different political persuasions. And different faiths. And different ethnic backgrounds. Difference is only a problem if it impinges on the rights of others. And please take note: not every desire of an individual is a “right.” So sometimes 516s and 363s are going to have to live in disagreement—even within the same family. But disagreement doesn’t automatically have to lead to name calling, sulking, exaggerations and division.
The goal of a “good fight” between people of differing opinions is to have your point of view heard and encourage the other person to change his/her mind. As the 363s start to multiply in our midst, let’s be open to what they’ll bring to our lives. And let their number be a challenge to any attitude within us that is unkind, close-minded, hurtful or fearful toward others who are different from us. We’re 516s.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). To know you’re loved, honored and cared for is to be cradled in the most secure sensations humanity has to offer. Money can’t buy the feeling, yet we keep trying. Before you take out your wallet, think about the ways, however small they may be, you already feel adored. Focus there and let the feeling grow. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re a thought leader, whether you realize it or not. You don’t have to share your opinion because you live it. No need to formulate a social media post about your ideas, goals and priorities; you’re already radiating with every quality you’d care to broadcast. This week, everyone gets it loud and clear.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Having hit a few milestones of this journey, more roads are now open to you. You won’t go wrong with this guiding principle: Just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should. The life you want is exciting yet uncomplicated. Don’t let anything distract you from the beautiful simplicity of it. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ve felt trapped by jobs before, but now you have choices. You work to earn money but you’re not strictly motivated by it. You’ll consider other factors before you take on a task. Who does it help? How does it stretch you? What talents does it hone? What connections does it facilitate? Do you actually enjoy it?
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Ideas can progress you... or not. You’re a deeper thinker. Much beauty can come of your thought spirals. Better a spiral, which goes somewhere, than a loop, which doesn’t. Stay aware of your patterns. Share with an objective party who can, if necessary, nudge you out of unsupportive mental repetitions. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You have a talent for creating smooth interactions with difficult people. You think ahead about what they need, what might set them off and how to make them as comfortable as possible. Because you make the effort to look for the good, you really do see something to love in practically everyone. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Don’t wait for the perfect company. You think of certain activities as group activities, but celebrating, dining, dancing, traveling and even working on big projects can each be a marvelous adventure for a party of one. What if anything worth doing with someone else is worth doing alone? Test the premise this week. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Many relationships don’t start off with total reciprocity. It can take a while for mutual feelings and interests to start flowing. There are benefits to sticking with a one-sided interest for a short period of time just to see what happens. Set the countdown timer, then chalk it up to research and development. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Whatever the situation, it will help to remind yourself why you’re in it. And if you don’t know anymore or never did, do some soul searching. Get curious, ask yourself good questions and figure it out. Because when you know what’s in it for you, you’ll contribute gladly and fully and get back what you put in. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You feel fine about where you’re at, then along comes a measuring stick. Other people’s ideas of scale can be eye-opening, intimidating, funny or just plain wrong. Develop your own system of accountability to the greater scheme and then answer to that instead of the assessments and comparisons of others.
THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS:
The composer Igor Stravinsky claimed his music was best understood by children and animals. Likewise, your most significant contributions will be subtle, complex and woven deeply into your being, so as to be detected by others as a mood or a feeling. You embody love and give the sort of intellect-defying beauty that’s easily felt and hard to describe. You’ll bring a project to levels that involve more people and money. A quest begins in August, and by your next birthday, the prize is in hand. COPYRIGHT 2022 CREATORS.COM

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). In the moment, action triumphs, and words are forgettable minor details. As for history, there is no action that can change it, so the words win.

The vanishing trick
South dealer. North-South vulnerable.

There are many ways of arranging for a losing trick to disappear, but some of these are far less obvious than others. Take this case where West leads a heart against five diamonds. Declarer plays dummy’s queen hoping West has led from the king, but when East covers the queen with the
king, what could have been an easy assignment now appears to be an impossible one. It seems he must lose two trumps and a heart and go down one. But if South gives the matter serious thought, he should conclude that there is still a legitimate chance to make the contract. So he wins the heart with the ace, cashes the A-K of spades and ruffs a spade. When the spades turn out to be divided 3-3, declarer’s chances rise considerably. He next leads a club to the ace and returns the nine of spades. With the opposing trumps situated as they are, there is nothing the defenders can do to stop the contract. If East discards, South pitches his heart loser, and West can do no better than ruff with the ace. East later scores a trump trick, but South takes the rest. If East ruffs the nine of spades with the four, South discards his heart loser all the same. East wins the trick cheaply enough, but when he returns a heart, declarer ruffs and leads a trump. The A-K of trump then come tumbling down together, and again the contract is home.

However, such tax liens shall have priority over the County’s Differential Interest Lien, representing the excess, if any, of the interest and penalty borne at the maximum rate over the interest and penalty borne at the rate at which the lien is purchased. The Purchaser acknowledges that the tax lien(s) sold pursuant to these Terms of Sale may be subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/or may become subject to such proceedings which may be commenced during the period in which a lien is held by a successful bidder or the assignee of same, which may modify a Purchaser’s rights with respect to the lien(s) the property securing same. Such bankruptcy proceedings shall not affect the validity of the tax lien. In addition to being subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/or the Federal and State Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Acts, said purchaser’s right of foreclosure may be affected by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and E nforcement Act (FIRRE A), 12 U .S.C. ss 1811 et. seq., with regard to real property under Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) receivership. The County Treasurer reserves the right, without further notice and at any time, to withdraw from sale any of the parcels of land or premises herein listed. The rate of interest and penalty which any person purchases the tax lien shall be established by his bid. E ach purchaser, immediately after the sale thereof, shall pay to the County Treasurer ten per cent of the amount from which the tax liens have been sold and the remaining ninety per cent within thirty days after such sale. If the purchaser at the tax sale shall fail to pay the remaining ninety per cent within ten days after he has been notified by the County Treasurer that the certificates of sale are ready for delivery, then all deposited with the County Treasurer including but not limited to the ten per cent theretofore paid by him shall, without further notice or demand, be irrevocably forfeited by the purchaser and shall be retained by the County Treasurer as liqui dated damages and the agreement to purchase be of no further effect. Time is of the essence in this sale. This sale is held pursuant to the Nassau County Administrative Code and interested parties are referred to such Code for additional information as to terms of sale, rights of purchasers, maximum rates of interest and other legal incidents of the sale. Furthermore, as to the bidding, 1. The bidder(s) agree that they will not work with any other bidder(s) to increase, maintain or stabilize interest rates or collaborate with any other bidder(s) to gain an unfair competitive advantage in the random number generator in the event of a tie bid(s) on a tax certificate. Bidder(s) further agree not to employ any bidding strategy designed to create an unfair competitive advantage in the tiebreaking process in the upcoming tax sale nor work with any other bidder(s) to engage in any bidding strategy that will result in a rotational award of tax certificates. 2. The tax certificate(s) the Bidder will bid upon, and the interest rate(s) bid, will be arrived at independently and without direct or indirect consultation, communication or agreement with any other bidder and that the tax certificate(s) the Bidder will bid upon, and the interest rate(s) to be bid, have not been disclosed, directly or indirectly, to any other bidder, and will not be disclosed, directly or indirectly, to any
LEGAL NOTICES other bidder prior to the close of bidding. No attempt has been made or will be made to, directly or indirectly, induce any other bidder to refrain from bidding on any tax certificate, to submit complementary bids, or to submit bids at specific interest rates. 3. The bids to be placed by the Bidder will be made in good faith and not pursuant to any direct or indirect, agreement or discussion with, or inducement from, any other bidder to submit a complementary or other noncompetitive bid. 4. If it is determined that the bidder(s) have violated any of these bid req uirements then their bid shall be voided and if they were the successful bidder the lien and any deposits made, in connection with, said bid shall be forfeited.

The interactive activity simulated why ancient civilizations located near rivers thrived. During day one of the simulation, students were tasked with independently obtaining food, water and shelter. Students obtained water by using a spoon to carry water back and forth from the “river” to their location in the classroom. They accessed food by “hunting” around the classroom or learning how to farm. Finally, the sixth-graders built shelters using popsicle sticks and clay. On the second day of the activity, students worked in groups and shared how they completed their tasks of obtaining food, water and shelter. The groups then designated members to be inventors, who would work to design a pottery wheel out of paper. If successful, these students earned a bowl to use to get water from the “river.” The interactive activity taught students about why it was important for ancient civilizations to be located near a water source. They also learned about how farming led to a food surplus, which in turn led to job specialization. —Submitted by the Manhasset Public Schools

Manhasset Leads Pack In Conference A-3 BY FRANK RIZZO
T
frizzo@antonmediagroup.com
hat derisive term, “garbage time,” has been deservedly buried. Let’s just say that the Manhasset boys basketball substitutes saw a lot of playing minutes in a recent Conference A-3 match against host Hewlett. The visiting Indians did not treat the home team kindly, breaking open the game in the second quarter en route to an 83-43 thrashing. At press time, Manhasset was 9-0 in the league and 14-1 overall. It led South Side (8-1) by one game. It has outscored all opponents by an average of 69.9 to 47.7 per game and the difference rises considerably when considering just the league games. What makes this juggernaut surprising is that the team has very little experience. The pandemic-delayed and -shortened 2020-21 season was contested last February. Teams were supposed to play eight regular season games. Three games in, Manhasset’s season was cut short by a COVID outbreak at the Secondary School. “What do you expect from the team this year?” head coach B. George Bruns was asked. “Hopefully, we’ll go deep into the playoffs,” he replied. “They are a talented group that has a great work ethic. They’re a joy to coach because they’re a real team, from the first guy to the last guy. And we have some firepower on offense and we work hard on defense.” Asked if anyone on the current roster saw playing time in the last full season 2019-20, Bruns said, “Not really. They’re coming out of nowhere.” Mike Notias leads the team with 18 points per game (ppg). Liam Connor was on the varsity as a freshman two years ago, but did not play last year due to an off-season injury. He is scoring 16.4 ppg. Liam Buckley (13.1) is also scoring in double figures. Looking into his playoff crystal ball, Bruns said there would be good teams in the Class A tourney, mentioning Garden City, Calhoun, Sewanhaka and Roslyn. The Indians beat Garden City by three and Sewanhaka by two this season. The only loss (60-56) was to Malverne. “They’re all good teams and it’s just one game, so anything can happen. And that’s why you have to be at your best all the time,” Bruns said. Assistant coach Stu Goldman said, “The best thing about these kids is that they have a great work ethic.” Goldman has been sitting next to Bruns on the bench for 20 years. “They’ve got fire,” Bruns concluded.

Not Too Old To Rock ’N’ Roll Martin Barre brings Jethro Tull show to area

et’s get the cliché out of the way. Martin Barre does not cotton to the Jethro Tull classic about being too old to rock. “I’m a healthy 75-year-old and I run five miles every other day,” he said in a recent interview from San Antonio, TX, before a tour date. “I’m planning to be around for a bit.” Aside from lead singer, main songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Ian Anderson, no one has been associated with the band as long or deeply as the guitarist, who joined in 1968. Anderson dissolved the group in 2011 and the two have led parallel bands in recent years, playing the vast catalogue in front of a fervent fan base. Barre has also released a clutch of solo albums, cultivating a latent gift for songwriting. His latest CD is 50 Years of Jethro Tull. Barre is highly respected among the “axe” fraternity, name dropped by Longtime Jethro Tull guitarist Martin Barre has gained a reputation as numerous top players such as Carle one of the best guitarists in rock music.

in Detroit and Memphis. Boogaloo represented a hybridization of R&B and Latin music styles like mambo and cha cha that yielded a handful of hits including Pete Rodríguez’s “I Like It Like That” and Joe Cuba’s “Bang Bang.” It was a trend that led Fania to make a foray down that path in quest for crossover success from 1965 to 1975. It’s this chapter of the label’s history that’s thoroughly covered in It’s A Good, Good Feeling: The Latin Soul of Fania Records (The Singles), a four-CD/7inch box set featuring single versions of 89 tracks from artists ranging from label stalwarts Larry Harlow and Ray Barretto to lesser-known names like Ralfi Pagan and Ralph Robles.

Harvey Averne working on it, I found the cultural aspect so overwhelming, it almost felt inappropriate as an outsider. But, at the same time, I found the people who had dealt with the music previously, had never really dealt with it in a historical manner that was respectful in the same way that you would treat a label like Motown.” Enlisted by storied label executive Joe McEwen, Rutland leaned heavy on his first go-round with Fania to build the framework for this anthology overflowing with rich imagery and ephemera running the gamut from promotional shots and singles sleeves to promotional fliers and album covers. In addition, he reached out for help from original label art and design director Izzy Sanabria, currently enjoying retirement down in Florida. A bulk of the artwork used can be traced back to Rutland’s first tour of duty. “With this project, I felt it was strictly a cultural way that this music seemed more relevant on a day-to-day basis within the Puerto Rican/Dominican cultures than mainstream music’s history did,” he said. “Therefore, the most important songs from Fania were as important to people of all generations at that point. It was an interesting perspective. At first, when I worked on this music in the mid2000s, there were people saying if you treat music this way, it will be ignored. We should just be chucking it out as CDs for $10 or whatever it was. It was an interesting experience and there were a lot of things that needed to be picked up from the Jerry Masucci

It was like trying a different way, regrouping and continuing to make good music, but it won’t be the same. In some ways, you can say that’s kind of sad.
